怎样写好英语演讲稿

　　当今社会，交流沟通变得很重要，而公共英语演讲就是其最常见和有效的手段之一。无论是在学习还是工作中，我们会越来越多地接触到公共英语演讲，小到课堂上，工作中，大到学术大会上的发言、总统竞选。一场出色的演讲离不开一份好的演讲稿。那怎样才能写好英语演讲稿呢?一起来看看吧!

　　结构逻辑要明晰

　　由于公共演讲一般受众为数十人甚至数百、数千人，再加上演讲环境的不确定性(比如：观众的欢呼，或者抱怨)，最好在进入主题后马上给出所讲内容的逻辑框架，以便听众更好的预判整个演讲内容，有利于他们更好地跟随演讲者的思路，达到良好的演讲效果。比如，乔布斯在该次演讲中，开篇稍微寒暄开篇之后，就进入正题，“Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories.”学生们马上能做出逻辑预判，我们今天会听到乔布斯谈三点，然后具体关注是哪三点，这种演讲就具备了“audience-centeredness”(以观众为中心)的特质。乔布斯在随后的演讲中明确提到，“The first story is about connecting the dots. My second story is about love and loss. My third story is about death.”由于这种明晰的思路，听众在听完之后也会记忆犹新，不会觉得头脑混乱，毫无所得。

　　当然，演讲稿的逻辑安排有多种方式，乔布斯的这篇演讲是按照topical order(话题顺序)和chronological order(时间顺序)来安排的。除此之外, 还有spatial order(空间顺序), problem-solution order(提问解决顺序)等等。大家可以根据不同的演讲内容来安排自己演讲稿的逻辑顺序和结构。

　　基本开篇和结尾的方式

　　1.State the importance of your topic(指出演讲话题的重要性)。直接告诉听众，你的演讲重要在哪里。比如：今天要做的是一场“英语演讲的艺术”的演讲，那开始就直接指出，该演讲对于大家今后的学习工作将会有重大的帮助，甚至给出一些数据和实例，让听众明白不听这个演讲将会是自己的损失。这样，听众就会很乐意投入到该次演讲中去。

　　2.Startle the audience(使听众震惊)。例如：要做一场关于“生活方式与疾病”的演讲，开篇就可以给出一组极具冲击力的数据，让听众看到生活方式的不健康将会是多么可怕的事情，这样的震惊使听众能够快速调整状态，投入到听演讲中去。

　　3.Arouse the curiosity of the audience(引起听众的好奇心)

　　4.Question the audience(向观众提问)。

　　5.Begin with a quotation(以引用开篇)。

　　6.Tell a story(以故事开篇)。

　　结尾往往可以起到“画龙点睛”的作用，开篇正文再好，如果结尾过于平淡，整个演讲的精彩程度都会大打折扣。那么如何做到“结尾有道”呢?首先，我们来看看乔布斯的这篇演讲稿，他的结尾比开篇更加出彩，采用的是“end with a quotation”，达到的效果是特别引人深思。他在结尾说道，“Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.”他不仅在结尾引用这句“Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish”，而且重复三遍，强化听众的印象，这句话也被广泛传播，被誉为该篇演讲的“精髓”。

　　在结尾时，可以用结束信号词让听众明白你要准备结尾了，不要让演讲结束得太突兀，比如，“In conclusion”, “Let me end my speech by saying…”, “I’d like to close my speech this way.”等。具体的结尾方式很多，常见的有：

　　1.Summarize your speech(总结演讲)。

　　2.Make a dramatic statement(强有力的陈述)，这个不同于引用他人之言，往往是演讲者自己的沉淀和呐喊，非常经典的演讲是Patrick Henry’s legendary “Liberty or Death” oration. 他在结尾时说道，”Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death.”

　　3.refer to the introduction(首尾呼应)。这是体现演讲内在统一的很经典的形式，值得借鉴。

　　有效掌握演讲写作要点的方法

　　1.多看。多看一些演讲素材，比如名人演讲，演讲比赛优秀选手的演讲等，积累大量的一手素材，当然也有必要阅读关于英语公共演讲的书籍，本人非常推荐Stephen E. Lucas的《演讲的艺术》。

　　2.多想。学会分析这些演讲之所以精彩的原因，可以从上面讲的几点入手。

　　3.多练。在有一定积淀和感觉之后，就要大量练习写作演讲稿，话题可以从日常学习和工作中选取，实用性要强，这样练起来更有兴趣和成就感。
