54.D 词义猜测题."off-hand"意为"没准备的",根据组织形式那一段提供的信息"Competition Format (形式):Each student will present a prepared speech on the given topic,followed by a three-minute off-hand speech",前面提到了它的反义词"prepared speech",并且根据Speech topic(演讲主题)这一段可知,"Topics for the off-hand speech will be given on the day of competition",即席演讲的主题将会在比赛当天给出,所以"off-hand speech"是无准备的演讲,故选D.
