Ⅲ.課文篇

At some time in your career you will probably have to make a speech if front of your colleagues or strangers. Keep in mind that most people feel nervous when they have to give a speech.
在你的事業(yè)生涯中，有時(shí)你可能不得不在同事或生人面前發(fā)表演講。要記住多數(shù)人在發(fā)表演講時(shí)都會(huì)感到緊張。

A good way to reduce your nervousness is to do plenty of research before the speech and to write down some of the main ideas that you will talk about.
減輕緊張的一個(gè)好的方法就是在發(fā)表演講前做大量的調(diào)研工作，并把你要講的中心寫下來。

If you write the speech out word-for-word and then just read it, you will sound very boring. A better way is to write the main ideas and some of the key words and phrases and then improvise.
如果你把講演稿逐字逐句地寫下來，然后照本宣科，你的演講聽起來會(huì)很無聊。好的方法是把主要觀點(diǎn)和一些要點(diǎn)詞和短語寫下來，然后即興發(fā)揮。

You can make your speech more interesting using visual aids like overhead slides and Powerpoint. They will help you remember what you should say and reinforce your words so that people remember your points more clearly.
你可以用幻燈片和Powerpoint等視覺效果來使演講更有趣。它們可以幫助你記起應(yīng)該說什么，讓你的話更有說服力，這樣人們就會(huì)更清楚地記住你的觀點(diǎn)。

If you get really nervous before giving a speech, try to imagine everyone in the room wearing no clothes. Although it sounds funny, you will find that it really does work!
如果你在發(fā)表演講前確實(shí)感到緊張，試著想象一下屋子里的每個(gè)人都沒穿衣服。盡管聽起來有些可笑，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)方法確實(shí)很有效。
