The theme of this English speech contest is self-introduction. For Su He, this is a cliché. Since learning English, this has been appearing in test papers, essays and even around people. Su He is not at all aware of it. It would be impossible. In this environment for a long time, and with the expansion of vocabulary now, the manuscript preparation was very smooth.
But because the content of the speech will be directly related to the effect of the speech, what kind of speech is the most touching? It is not about empty talk and rambling, but starting from reality, considering the needs of the audience, collecting some issues of common concern, and It was targeted. So Su He spent a lot of energy when revising the manuscript.
The English speech competition requires not only writing the speech, but also delivering it on the stage in front of everyone. Memorizing the speech is the prerequisite for the speech, but reading it out as written will make it impossible for the audience to be infected. "Speech" as the name suggests, Not only talk but also performance, the audience not only listens but also reads. If you just read from the text, what the audience sees is just a "machine" that makes sounds.
What the audience wants to see is a "living person" with feelings and passion. Only such a speaker can infect the audience. Therefore, if you ask them to pour their own feelings into the speech during the speech, the speech will be more effective. Don't be dry, but be sincere. A speech that lacks passion is unattractive.
Of course, there are skills, and mastering these skills can make the speech more effective. First of all, the speech should be natural, and the emotions expressed during the speech should be consistent with the content. Only true feelings can capture and impress the audience. The rhythm of the speech should be Be more compact and cannot be slow and leisurely.
Secondly, the beginning should be attractive, do not say unnecessary words, get straight to the point, get straight to the point, and capture the "heart" of the audience. Finally, use appropriate postures to assist the speech, because rich, diverse and appropriate gestures or postures can not only attract the attention of the audience It is powerful and vivid and will leave a deep impression on the audience.
This is something that Su He does not have at present. She has performed on stage because of music and dance, but she just has to do her best. It is different from this kind of need to be flexible. Because this time she has to give an unscripted speech, Su He is a little worried. I forget the manuscript when I get nervous.
Although speaking skills are not something that can be accomplished in a day, Su He was still advised by the teacher to watch more speech videos. When there is nothing to do, he can try out the lectures by himself and simulate them. This is still useful. It is better than appearing on the stage temporarily and not knowing. How to say it well.
The weekend soon came, and Su He and several registered classmates from the class went to the auditorium to participate in the competition. The auditorium is behind the school cafeteria and is not usually open. There are usually New Year's Day performances, Dragon Boat Festival performances and other activities. It would only be held here when the school opened, and Su He came to the auditorium during the opening ceremony.
The auditorium is on the second floor. You have to climb a long staircase made of stainless steel. When you open the door of the auditorium, you can feel that the temperature is several degrees higher than outside. There are so many people. I don’t know if they are all here to participate in the competition or to join in the fun. of.
The speech started at 7 o'clock, and it's not time yet, but the names have been reported to the student union. What Su He has to do now is to get his playing card from the student union.
When it was time to go on stage, Su He was not so nervous anymore. No matter how nervous she was at this time, it was just one thing. She was simply still young and there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. But sometimes, the more she didn't care, the better she would perform. Among a group of junior high school students, Su He, a pseudo-junior high school student, wouldn't be justified if he didn't stand out at all, but Su He had no awareness at all and always thought that he was impossible.
In the end, Su He was selected in first place. Su He, who had always been indifferent, was a little unbelievable. After such a long time, Su He is now very confident in himself, but this time there were many participants, and it was not her.
What she is good at is that after she got off the stage, she heard a lot of people talking about which contestant had won which award. If she hadn't already finished her speech, she would have panicked standing on the stage.
After learning that he had been selected, Su He returned to the classroom with a confused look on his face. He looked at the few classmates in the classroom, which were much worse than the usual night self-study. Then he thought about the few classmates who participated in the competition together. He knew that the auditorium was
What happened to so many people?
As soon as I returned to my seat, my head teacher, Mr. Huang, arrived in the classroom. I was really caught off guard. Because the discipline at night is always good, Teacher Huang usually rarely comes to check at night, but this time many people in the class skipped the evening self-study to watch the lecture.
During the competition, the class teacher came, wasn't it a shock?
Sure enough, seeing so many people missing from the class, the head teacher's face was a little scary, "I always thought that you guys were pretty good at preparing homework and discipline in class, and no one from other classes came to complain. I watched it a few times."
Not bad, I didn’t expect that it would be like this not long ago.”
"Monitor, give me the list of students who live in the dormitory." Pan Hongwei, the monitor at the same table, stood up and handed over the list in his hand.
"Pan Hongwei, Su He, Gan Tiantian, Zheng Xuanxuan... these seven students participated in the competition, and three came back. However, there are thirty-eight boarding students in the class. After excluding these, there should be thirty-five. Now, I am in the class
Seeing that there are not twenty of them, where have they all gone?" This is simply a tantrum.
The ones who hit the target were some students who came back in groups one after another. They were still discussing something heatedly, but when they saw that something was vaguely wrong in the class, they suddenly fell silent, it was terrifyingly quiet.
"Why don't you say anything? We were having a great time discussing it just now. Why don't you continue the discussion?" Teacher Huang stood on the podium and banged the book on his hand. "Stand here in the corridor. Since you like to be outside,
Just stay outside and don’t come in.”
"The results of this Mathematical Olympiad competition are out. Su He in our class is the first place in the preliminary round of the national competition with a score of 100 points. Pan Hongwei also has a good score, ranking 18th with a score of 78 points.
, the rest have not passed the preliminary round, and the results can be checked online, so I won’t study anymore.”
"The final will be held in March next year. The two students who passed will prepare well."
"Also for this essay competition, I picked out five, but there were only three places. I revised them and finally handed them over to the grade Chinese group leader for a decision. Su He, Gan Tiantian, Statement, Chen Liping
, Guan Liyan, you guys finish your composition."
"Also, Su He passed the English speech contest. Next week, I will go to the city to participate in the speech contest with classmates from two other classes. When I have time, I will give the teacher the speech he wrote to revise." (To be continued)
