修中圈儿
演讲的作用很广，对于演讲者而言，它更是一项非凡地本领。演讲的技巧无定律，说是无定律，只是因为每个人的特色会不一样，好的技巧是一场让人喝彩演讲的基础。我为大家整理了关于英语演讲的几点小技巧，欢迎大家阅读。
The Rule of Three – We remember three things。三的法则——人们有可能只会记住你演讲中的三件事
1. The audience are likely to remember only three things from your presentation – plan in advance what these will be.1. 听众或许只会从你的演讲中记住三样东西——都是什么呢?提前做好计划!
Believe it or not, the chances are, people will only remember three things from your presentation. So before you start writing your presentation, plan what your three key messages will be. Once you have these messages, structure the main part of your presentation around these three key themes and look at how they could be better illustrated。不管你信不信，听众只能记住三点与你演讲有关的内容。因此在开始写演讲稿之前，就要确定好你最关键的三条信息。一旦你确定了这些信息，围绕这三个主题构建你演讲的主要内容并考虑如何更好的阐述。
2. There are three parts to your presentation2. 你的演讲包含三个部分
The beginning, the middle and the end. Start to plan out what you will do in these three parts. The beginning is ideal for an attention grabber or for an ice breaker. The end is great to wrap things up or to end with a grand finale。开场、正文、结尾。开始规划你要在这三部分讲什么，典型的开场就是吸引注意力或是破冰，结尾可以把所讲的内容回顾一番或是来一个压轴戏。
3. Use lists of three wherever you can in your presentation3. 演讲中尽可能将观点列为三点进行表达
Lists of three have been used from early times up to the present day. They are particularly used by politicians and advertisers who know the value of using the rule of three to sell their ideas。列为三点这种方式已经从过去沿用至今，它们熟练的被政治家和广告制作人用来销售他们的理念，因为他们深知“三的法则”的价值。
Veni, Vidi, Vici (I came, I saw, I conquered) – Julius Caesar
“Friends, Romans, Countrymen lend me your ears” – William Shakespeare
“Our priorities are Education, Education, Education” – Tony Blair
A Mars a day helps you to work, rest and play – Advertising slogan
Stop, look and listen – Public safety announcement
“我来了，我看见，我战胜”——凯撒大帝
“朋友、罗马人、同胞，请听我说“——丘吉尔
“我们的重点是教育、教育、教育“——布莱尔
“一天一根玛氏条，助你工作、休息和玩耍”——广告词
“一停二看三听”——公共安全宣传语
A classic example of the rule of three was Winston Churchill’s famous Blood, Sweat and Tears speech. He is widely attributed as saying I can promise you nothing but blood sweat and tears. What he actually said was “I can promise you Blood, Sweat, Toil and Tears”. Because of the rule of three we simply remember it as Blood sweat and tears。有关“三的法则”享有盛名的就是丘吉尔的“血、汗和泪水”的演说，人们普遍认为他当时说的是：我能奉献的唯有血、汗和泪水，实际上他说了什么呢?“我能奉献的唯有血、汗、辛劳和泪水”，因为“三的法则”我们仅仅只记住了血、汗和泪水。
4. In Presentations “Less is More”4. 在演讲中“少即是多”
If you have four points to get across – cut one out. They won’t remember it anyway. In presentations less really is more. No one ever complained of a presentation being too short。如果你有四个要点要阐述——那就去掉一个，他们是无论如何也记不下那个的。在演讲中“少即是多”，没有人会因为一场演讲太过简短而抱怨的。
【英语演讲中该注意的细节】
1.Do Not Stay Hidden Before You Speak
不要躲藏
Unless you are Bono, Oprah, or the President, you have no reason to hide before you speak and every reason to mingle, letting people know that you are interesting and personable BEORE you take the stage. Aim to connect with individuals and build a following before you address your audience as a whole.
除非你是bono ,opeah 或者是总统，在社交场合你都没理由在你说话之前就藏起来，抓住机会站到台上让人们都知道你是个有趣的人。在你把一大群人变成你的听众之前，应当多与人交流。
2.Do Not Write a Boring Intro and Have a Boring Person Read It
不要做过多的自我介绍
Your audience already has some idea of who you are, so skip the boring LinkedIn bio facts. When deciding what to include, ask yourself why your biomatters to this group of people. Keep it short and sweet, including only the most pertinent information of why they should care about who you are and what you have to say.
你的听众都知道你，因此直接缩短这段无聊的自我介绍环节。当你决定好了说什么，问问你自己为什么要对着这群人说。带着感情挑重点说，说些和为什么他们应当知道你是谁、你必须要说的内容相关的。
3. Do Not Slowly Stroll Onto the Stage
不要再舞台上闲晃
Unless you are really, REALLY famous, no one is getting a thrill out of viewing your entry. So, just get there. Fast. As humble as you may actually be, even appearing to take your time to get on stage can come off as self-important. And, if the applause after you’ve been introduced has dwindled or completely stopped before you get to center stage, you (and your entire audience) can practically taste the awkward in the room.
如果你不是特别的有名，没人愿意看你在舞台上自我陶醉。因此，请快些的走到舞台上。尽可能的谦虚，甚至是用时间来表现出来。要是在你做完自我介绍后掌声就开始小了，甚至当你走到舞台中心就没有了，那么你(和你的听众)就是在互相看不惯。
4. Do Not Start with "Thank you very much. It’s such a pleasure to be here".
不要以“非常感谢，站在这里是我的荣幸”开始
This was an entirely acceptable way to begin public speaking the first ten million times it was done. We are now past that mark and opening with this line is akin to saying: "Thank you for hearing me say something that you are now not listening to at all." Starting with this line is the best way to make your audience members check their Twitter or Instagram accounts within the first 10 seconds of your speech.
这类说法完全是被人说过千万遍的开场白。现在我们不必再用这些话，说点像：“感谢你在这里听我说些你可能不是很赞同的话。”用这些话来做开场白，就是让你的听众在你开始讲话的10秒内就上网的最好方式。
5. Do Not Say, "Good morning!" …Wait for a Response, and Then Say, "Oh, Come On, You Can Do Better Than That!"
不要说，“早上好，”然后在等着她们给些回应后，再说，“哦，加油，你可以做得更好!”

初中英语演讲稿写作技巧
对书面表达中常用的重要语言点进行系统化整理，从简到难，逐步深入，符合语言学习的习惯。在知识点的表述上简洁、直白；对必须掌握和理解的概念均通过例句加以剖析讲解，便于记忆。
1．根据听众对象，注意演讲的总体措词
演讲的总体措词是严肃一些还是活泼一些，是有较明显的说教口气还是用平等的口吻，等等，都要根据听众对象而定。如果场下听众是同龄的学生，那么演讲的内容只要风趣一些往往就能引起共鸣。但另一方面，如果听众大多是上了年纪的教师，太多的笑料反而会被认为“不严肃”，“不尊重”，而引起反感。
用英语演讲，不要用太多 i feel, i think，老是用i，显得十分主观，狭隘。如果通篇全是 i feel, i think 的内容，会给人觉得缺乏说服力。另外，perhaps, maybe 这样的词语，虽然有“客气，谦虚”的成分，但太多会让人觉得你演讲的内容有不可靠之处。
还有，在演讲中，要少用you，多用we。用you等于把自己与听众对立起来，而用we则拉近了与听众的距离。比如：you should not smoke．听上去像教训人，而 let’s not smoke听起来是一个不错的建议。
2．演讲要越短越好
英语演讲应该简洁扼要，直截了当。除非特别需要，一般不要采用中文中的那种迂回曲折的表达形式。据有关专家统计，一般人的注意力一次只能集中约13分钟。所以，演讲长度以10～15分钟为宜。下面是美国总统林肯所作的著名的盖茨堡演说，虽然全文只有短短200多个词，却带有振奋人心、扭转乾坤般的力量。其中 of the people, by the people, for the people(民有，民治，民享)已成为不朽佳句。对于中学生来说，这篇演讲现在读起来一定会觉得很难，但要写好英语演讲，这确实是值得认真研读的经典之作。
gettysburg address
four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.
we are met on a great battlefield of that war. we have come to dedicate a portion of the field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live. it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. but in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground.
the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. the world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
it is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, ----that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion, ----that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, ----that this nation, under god, shall have a new birth of freedom, ----and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
其实，我们中学生练习写演讲稿，可以短些，从4～5分钟，500～600个词，围绕一个主题开始练习。
3．英语演讲稿的基本组成部分
从大的方面看，英语演讲词实际上是属于一种特殊的说明文或议论文，其基本组成部分是：
1)开始时对听众的称呼语
最常用的是 ladies and gentlemen，也可根据不同情况，选用 fellow students, distinguished guests, mr chairman, honorable judges(评委)等等。
2)提出论题 站
由于演讲的时间限制，必须开门见山，提出论题。提出论题的方法有各种各样，但最生动，最能引起注意的是用举例法。比如：你要呼吁大家关心贫穷地区的孩子，你可以用亲眼看到的或者收集到的那些贫穷孩子多么需要帮助的实例开始。另外，用具体的统计数据也是一个有效的'引出论题的方法，比如：你要谈遵守交通规则的话题，你可以从举一系列有关车辆、车祸等的数据开始。
3)论证
对提出的论题，不可主观地妄下结论，而要进行客观的论证。这是演讲中最需要下功夫的部分。关键是要把道理讲清楚。常见的论证方法有举例法、因果法、对比法等等，可参见英语议论文的有关章节。
4)结论
结论要简明扼要，以给听众留下深刻印象。
5)结尾
结尾要简洁，不要拉拉扯扯，说个没完。特别是不要受汉语影响，说些类似“准备不足，请谅解”，“请批评指正”这样的废话。最普通的结尾就是：thank you very much for your attention。
4．英语演讲稿的语言特征
1)多用实词，多用短句，少用结构复杂的长句
在英语演讲中，and, but, so, then 等虚词要尽量少用，that, which 等词引导的定语从句也只会使句子结构变得复杂，而使听众难以跟上演讲者的思路，从而影响演讲的效果。相反，多使用实词，短句，可使得演讲内容更清晰，气势更磅礴。
2)演讲要注意使用各种修辞手法，增加演讲的感染力和气势。英语演讲中常用的修辞手法有：渐进(climax)、对照(antithesis)、排比(parallelism)、警句(epigram)等等，例如：
that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth．(排比)
这个民有、民治、民享的国家将不会从地球上消失。
united, there is little we can not do; divided, there is little we can do．(对照)
团结，我们便将无所不能；分裂，我们则会一事无成。
let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty．
