從大的方面看,英語演講詞實(shí)際上是屬于一種特殊的說明文或議論文,其基本組成部分是: 1)開始時(shí)對(duì)聽眾的稱呼語
最常用的是 Ladies and gentlemen,也可根據(jù)不同情況,選用 Fellow students, Distinguished guests, Mr Chairman, Honorable Judges(評(píng)委)等等。
2) 提出論題
由于演講的時(shí)間限制,必須開門見山,提出論題。提出論題的方法有各種各樣,但最生動(dòng),最能引起注意的是用舉例法。
比如:你要呼吁大家關(guān)心貧窮地區(qū)的孩子,你可以用親眼看到的或者收集到的那些貧窮孩子多么需要幫助的實(shí)例開始。另外,用具體的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)也是一個(gè)有效的引出論題的方法,比如:你要談遵守交通規(guī)則的話題,你可以從舉一系列有關(guān)車輛、車禍等的數(shù)據(jù)開始。
3) 論證
對(duì)提出的論題,不可主觀地妄下結(jié)論,而要進(jìn)行客觀的論證。這是演講中最需要下功夫的部分。關(guān)鍵是要把道理講清楚。常見的論證方法有舉例法、因果法、對(duì)比法等等,可參見英語議論文的有關(guān)章節(jié)。
4) 結(jié)論
結(jié)論要簡(jiǎn)明扼要,以給聽眾留下深刻印象。
5) 結(jié)尾
結(jié)尾要簡(jiǎn)潔,不要拉拉扯扯,說個(gè)沒完。特別是不要受漢語影響,說些類似“準(zhǔn)備不足,請(qǐng)諒解”,“請(qǐng)批評(píng)指正”這樣的廢話。最普通的結(jié)尾就是:Thank you very much for your attention。
范例:
Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! I'm very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”。 I hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it. First I want to ask you some questions:
1、 Do you know what is youth?
2、 How do you master your youth? Youth Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshne; it is the freshneof the deep springs of life .
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being 's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there's a wirelestation : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80. Thank you!
現(xiàn)在大家知道了嘛?格式對(duì)于一篇英語演講稿可是很重要的,千萬不要鬧出笑話哦!
