No matter in study or work, we will come into contact with or use all kinds of English speeches, from class assignments and work reports to speeches at meetings and job elections. So how can we make a wonderful English speech? Let me tell you some skills in writing English speeches.
1, according to the audience, pay attention to the overall wording of the national flag. Whether the overall wording of the speech is serious or lively, whether there is a more obvious didactic tone or equal tone, etc. , depending on the audience. If the audience is a student of the same age, as long as the content of the speech is funny, it can often resonate. On the other hand, if you listen to many elderly teachers, too many jokes will be regarded as "not serious" and "disrespectful", which will cause disgust.
The shorter the speech, the better. English speeches should be concise and clear. In general, we should not use tortuous expressions in Chinese unless it is particularly necessary. According to the statistics of relevant experts, a person's attention can only be concentrated for about 13 minutes at a time. Therefore, the length of the speech should be 10~ 15 minutes. The following is the famous Gettysburg Address delivered by American President Lincoln. Although the full text is only over 200 words, it is inspiring and has the power to reverse Gan Kun. Among them, for the people, by the people and for the people (for the people, for the people and for the people) has become an immortal sentence. For people nowadays, this speech must be difficult to read, but if you want to write a good English speech, it is really a classic worth studying. At the beginning, ladies and gentlemen are the most commonly used addresses of the audience, but according to different situations, you can also choose classmates, guess, Mr. Chairman, respected Lu Qi and so on.
Bring up a topic
Due to the time limit of the speech, it is necessary to come straight to the point and raise the topic. There are many ways to put forward the topic, but the most vivid and striking thing is to use examples. For example, if you want to call people to care about children in poor areas, you can start with examples you have seen or collected about how poor children need help. Demonstration: Don't jump to conclusions subjectively, but demonstrate objectively. This is the most important part of the speech. The key is to make the truth clear. Common argumentation methods include examples, cause and effect, comparison and so on. , which can be found in the relevant chapters of English argumentative essays.
final result
The ending should be concise, don't pander, and talk endlessly. In particular, don't be influenced by Chinese and say such nonsense as "I'm not prepared enough, please forgive me" and "please criticize and correct me". The most common ending is: you are very concerned about you.
