一、演讲稿的撰写

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 Lets 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.

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

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． (对照和渐进)

让世界各国都知道,无论对我们怀有好感与敌意,我们将付出任何代价,肩负任何重任,面对任何艰辛,支持任何朋友,反对任何敌人,以确保自由的生存与成功.

What we should fear most is the fear itself．(警句) 我们最应恐惧的是恐惧本身.

Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country．(对照) 不要问你们的国家能为你们做些什么,而要问你们能为你们的国家做些什么.

设想一下,假如在我们的演讲中能融入上述这样运用得当的修辞手段,那我们的演讲将会变得多么有力与动人

二、上台演讲注意事项：

1多上台，要有自信，大声大胆大量的练习，多去人多的场合表达表现自己。

2 降低期望，不要太在乎自己，讲不好又何妨，丢脸也不怕，紧张就紧张吧。

3 充分准备

4 放松练习

5 反复练习

6 并适当地辅助一些道具去减轻压力和紧张

三、演讲作业布置：(3选2)

1. What is more important, IQ or EQ?

2. 1+1=2？(Does one plus one equal two?)

3. When Socrates Meets Confucius ?

第二篇：英语演讲作业

我最喜欢吃的是饺子。因为饺子是我国的传统食物.我们过春节时都会吃它,相传它是我国医圣张仲景首先发明的，距今已有一千八百多年的历史了。是深受中国人民喜爱的传统食品.

现在，北方和南方对饺子的称谓也不尽相同。北方人叫"饺子"。南方不少地区却称之为"馄饨"。饺子因其用馅不同，名称也有很多，有猪肉水饺，羊肉水饺，牛肉水饺，三鲜水饺，红油水饺，高汤水饺，花素水饺，鱼肉水饺，菜肉饺子 等等

饺子表达着人们对美好生活的追求和期待，因此，我最爱吃的食物是饺子

The old man, an old lady, child joyful growth, of course, couples harmony is also very important, the husband and wife is the most important part of the family.

Every good family their relationship should be very good, when children make people, parents should take proper ways to solve it. Quarrelling between couples, they should have a party to calm down. The old man felt lonely, they should be at their side take care of them, and give them a comfortable life environment

Above is I think an ideal family conditions.

俗话说家和万事兴，家是我们停靠的港湾，家和睦大家都幸福，一个美好的家，对孩子的成长也很重要，因此我想理想的家庭应该是一个各为其职，老有所终，少有所养。老人安享晚年，小孩快乐成长，当然夫妻和睦也是很重要的，夫妻是家庭最重要的一部分。

每一个美好的家庭他们之间的关系都应该是非常好的，当小孩子闹人的时候，父母应该采取正当的方式去解决它。夫妻吵架的时候，他们应该有一方冷静下来。老人感到孤独的时候，他们应该在他们身边照顾他们，给他们一个舒适的生活环境

以上就是我认为一个理想家庭具备的条件。

impression

In the face of people with color in the symbol of this person's personality and character and destiny, it is a characteristic of the opera, can help to understand the plot. Simply speaking, red BaoYi, representing loyalty; containing Black was neutral, on behalf of fierce intelligence; Blue and green also is neutral, represent hero; The gold and silver is mysterious, represent god demon. Today many of DeFangXi are kept on this tradition.

我非常喜欢京剧，因为京剧是中国文化的精粹, 它至今已有将近二百年的历史

它称的上是真正的艺术。结合了不同形式的艺术.像歌唱，舞蹈，装扮和功夫表演，戏服的颜色，美丽的道具，优雅的形式给人留下难以忘怀的印象。

在人的脸上涂上颜色以象征这个人的性格和特质和命运，它是京剧的一个特点，可以帮助理解剧情。简单地讲，红色含有褒义，代表忠诚；黑色为中性，代表猛智；蓝色和绿色也为中性，代表英雄；金色和银色是神秘，代表神妖。今天许多地方戏中都保留了这种传统。
