英語演講稿

英語演講稿是人們在公共場合發表講話的文稿。包括演講前準備的完整文稿和演講后整理的文字記錄。它是口頭演講的一種局面形式，具有有聲性、宣傳性和鼓動性的特點。它是出自于某種政治活動或社會活動的需要而進行的，在特定的公開場合進行當眾的言態表達，具有很強的社會公開性。

目錄 1演講技巧 2基本要素

3英語演講稿

英語演講稿

1英語演講稿的演講技巧

1、根據聽眾對象，注意演講的總體措詞

演講的總體措詞是嚴肅一些還是活潑一些，是有較明顯的說教口氣還是用平等的口吻，等等，都要根據聽眾對象而定。如果場下聽眾是同齡的學生，那么演講的內容只要風趣一些往往就能引起共鳴。但另一方面，如果聽眾大多是上了年紀的教師，太多的笑料反而會被認為“不嚴肅”，“不尊重”，而引起反感。

用英語演講，不要用太多 i feel, i think，老是用i，顯得十分主觀，狹隘。如果通篇全是 i feel, i think 的內容，會給人覺得缺乏說服力。另外，perhaps, maybe 這樣的詞語，雖然有“客氣，謙虛”的成分，但太多會讓人覺得你演講的內容有不可靠之處。

還有，在演講中，要少用you，多用we。用you等于把自己與聽眾對立起來，而用we則拉近了與聽眾的距離。比如：you should not smoke.聽上去像教訓人，而 lets not smoke聽起來是一個不錯的建議。

2、演講要越短越好

英語演講應該簡潔扼要，直截了當。除非特別需要，一般不要采用中文中的那種迂回曲折的表達形式。據有關專家統計，一般人的注意力一次只能集中約13分鐘。所以，演講長度以10～15分鐘為宜。下面是美國總統林肯所作的著名的蓋茨堡演說，雖然全文只有短短200多個詞，卻帶有振奮人心、扭轉乾坤般的力量。其中 of the people, by the people, for the people(民有，民治，民享)已成為不朽佳句。對于中學生來說，這篇演講現在讀起來一定會覺得很難，但要寫好英語演講，這確實是值得認真研讀的經典之作。2英語演講稿的基本要素

從大的方面看，英語演講詞實際上是屬于一種特殊的說明文或議論文，其基本組成部分是：

1)開始時對聽眾的稱呼語

最常用的是 ladies and gentlemen，也可根據不同情況，選用 fellow students, distinguished guests, mr chairman, honorable judges(評委)等等。2)提出論題

由于演講的時間限制，必須開門見山，提出論題。提出論題的方法有各種各樣，但最生動，最能引起注意的是用舉例法。比如：你要呼吁大家關心貧窮地區的孩子，你可以用親眼看到的或者收集到的那些貧窮孩子多么需要幫助的實例開始。另外，用具體的統計數據也是一個有效的引出論題的方法，比如：你要談遵守交通規則的話題，你可以從舉一系列有關車輛、車禍等的數據開始。3)論證

對提出的論題，不可主觀地妄下結論，而要進行客觀的論證。這是演講中最需要下功夫的部分。關鍵是要把道理講清楚。常見的論證方法有舉例法、因果法、對比法等等，可參見英語議論文的有關章節。

4)結論 結論要簡明扼要，以給聽眾留下深刻印象。5)結尾

結尾要簡潔，不要拉拉扯扯，說個沒完。特別是不要受漢語影響，說些類似“準備不足，請諒解”，“請批評指正”這樣的廢話。最普通的結尾就是：thank you very much for your attention。篇五：200個句子涵蓋高中英語4500個詞匯文字稿 200個句子涵蓋高中英語4500個詞匯 1.we should always bear in mind that if we are ignorant of our health for promotion, disease will gradually approach us with the help of tiredness.我們應該牢記：如果我們為了晉升而忽略了我們的健康，疾病便會借助疲勞乘虛而入。2.i looked for the history book because i wanted to find out when america was founded, and at last i found the dusty book in a dim room.我當時在找一本歷史書，因為我想知道美國是何時建立的，最終我在一間昏暗的房間里找到這本布滿灰塵的書。3.there are so many reference books on this romantic poet for me to choose from that i can’t make up my mind which to choose.有那么多關于這位浪漫詩人的參考書可供選擇，我無法決定選擇哪一本。4.it seemed that the handsome actor was not a bit worried, but in fact, he was not a little concerned about the result of the investigation, which may destroy his bright future.這名帥氣的演員似乎一點也不著急，事實上他非常擔心調查結果，因為這也許會毀了他的光明前途。5.unluckily, the delegate felt so sleepy that he soon fell asleep without realizing that he had left his passport and the draft of his speech in the taxi.不幸的是，這位代表覺得很困很快就睡著了，并沒有意識到他把自己的護照和演講稿忘在了出租車上。6.it is reported that by the end of 2014, shanghai disney theme park will have been open to the tourists from all over the world formally.據報道，在2014年年底前，上海迪士尼主題公園將正式向全世界的游客開放。7.the engineer pointed out, “to some extent, the more functions a calculator has, the more likely it is to be out of order.”
