Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing.The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves.The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become.In fact, public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent (天赋) .Anybody who can talk can speak in public.Here are some of the lessons I have learned:
Try to make your idea clear and brief.If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough.If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense.After all, what you can impress your audience in your speech is one or two of your main ideas.One or two.Not ten or twenty.
No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well-how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close.A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember.When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first.When you know where you're headed, you can choose any route to get there.
Finally, you'd better limit the time of your speech as properly as you can to hold the audience's curiosity.Take a vaudeville act (杂耍) for example.The standard length of one is usually 12 minutes.Just imagine how you are feeling if you have been watching all the performers singing and dancing their hearts out for more than the standard time!

At one point or 36 in life, we are all 37 to make a speech to an audience on different occasions, for example, in the classroom to share successful 38 with classmates or on a wedding to send your best wishes in honor of the newly-weds.

We forget what to say, we 41 unnecessary words, and we 42 the audience. We feel awful, feeling like completely a loser, and wish we would never have to speak again.
Cheer up! You are not alone and things are not 43 bad. Here are a few44 for you to 45 the pain. First, be clear about the purpose of your speech. What is the 46? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as much information 47 you can think of on your subject. It is advised that onespend plenty of your time doing some research and organizing your material so that your speech is clear and crystal. 48 many examples, pictures, charts, and graphs if possible.
