第一篇：奧巴馬演講技巧Obama

Today I would like to talk something about the tactics in Obama’s speech.It is universally acknowledged that Obama is a inborn speechmaker with great personal enchantment.There are numerous features included in his speech, and I’d like to explore some of the most evident here.To be the first, Obama’s speech is full of figure-popping words and sentences.People who get together to listen to his speech feel like have a conversation man to man, which make most of the people feel what he feel, think what he think.What impressed me most is following sentence: Anyone can share my passion, and achieved his success.What’s more, Obama is good at using gesture to state matters, to express attitude, to touch audience.And then, there’s no denying that multifarious rhetorics are widely used in his speech.I would like to explain three of then.first, parallelism.Le’s look at the example:...a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed her by on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe...this sentence is from our text book page 201.And second kind of rhetoric is antithesis.We could understand this technique through following sentence:...fierce intelligence and the shocking ignorance, the struggles and successes, the love and yes, the bitterness and biases that make up the black experience in America...Third, oxymoron is also used frequently:...we may have different stories, but we hold common hopes;that we may not look the same and we may not have come from the same place, but we all want to move in the same direction...In addition, Obama love telling stories.At the end of our text, the speech is brought to the end by the example of Ashley’s story with the theme re-emphasized that only by working together can the American people make a more perfect union, which combine the fact with political issues.Finally, the language of his speech is popular but not plain.We could look at this sentence: This union may never be perfect, but generation after generation has shown that it can always be perfected.It means that people are perfecting the United States generation by generation even though she can not be perfect.In short, Obama’s speech is full of tactic, from which we could learn a lot and benefit our reading comprehension and writing.That’s all, thank you!

第二篇：Obama奧巴馬上海演講

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Good afternoon.It is a great honor for me to be here in Shanghai, and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you.I'd like to thank Fudan University's President Yang for his hospitality and his gracious welcome.I'd also like to thank our outstanding Ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who exemplifies the deep ties and respect between our nations.I don't know what he said, but I hope it was good.(Laughter.)奧巴馬上海演講英文 一

What I'd like to do is to make some opening comments, and then what I'm really looking forward to doing is taking questions, not only from students who are in the audience, but also we've received questions online, which will be asked by some of the students who are here in the audience, as well as by Ambassador Huntsman.And I am very sorry that my Chinese is not as good as your English, but I am looking forward to this chance to have a dialogue.This is my first time traveling to China, and I'm excited to see this majestic country.Here, in Shanghai, we see the growth that has caught the attention of the world--the soaring skyscrapers, the bustling streets and entrepreneurial activity.And just as I'm impressed by these signs of China's journey to the 21st century, I'm eager to see those ancient places that speak to us from China's distant past.Tomorrow and the next day I hope to have a chance when I'm in Beijing to see the majesty of the Forbidden City and the wonder of the Great Wall.Truly, this is a nation that encompasses both a rich history and a belief in the promise of the future.The same can be said of the relationship between our two countries.Shanghai, of course, is a city that has great meaning in the history of the relationship between the United States and China.It was here, 37 years ago, that the Shanghai Communique opened the door to a new chapter of engagement between our governments and among our people.However, America's ties to this city--and to this country--stretch back further, to the earliest days of America's independence.奧巴馬上海演講英文 二

In 1784, our founding father, George Washington, commissioned the Empress of China, a ship that set sail for these shores so that it could pursue trade with the Qing Dynasty.Washington wanted to see the ship carry the flag around the globe, and to forge new ties with nations like China.This is a common American impulse--the desire to reach for new horizons, and to forge new partnerships that are mutually beneficial.Over the two centuries that have followed, the currents of history have steered the relationship between our countries in many directions.And even in the midst of tumultuous winds, our people had opportunities to forge deep and even dramatic ties.For instance, Americans will never forget the hospitality shown to our pilots who were shot down over your soil during World War II, and cared for by Chinese civilians who risked all that they had by doing so.And Chinese veterans of that war still warmly greet those American veterans who return to the sites where they fought to help liberate China from occupation.A different kind of connection was made nearly 40 years ago when the frost between our countries began to thaw through the simple game of table tennis.The very unlikely nature of this engagement contributed to its success--because for all our differences, both our common humanity and our shared curiosity were revealed.As one American player described his visit to China--“[The]people are just like us…The country is very similar to America, but still very different.” Of course this small opening was followed by the achievement of the Shanghai Communique, and the eventual establishment of formal relations between the United States and China in 1979.And in three decades, just look at how far we have come.奧巴馬上海演講英文 三

In 1979, trade between the United States and China stood at roughly $5 billion--today it tops over $400 billion each year.The commerce affects our people's lives in so many ways.America imports from China many of the computer parts we use, the clothes we wear;and we export to China machinery that helps power your industry.This trade could create even more jobs on both sides of the Pacific, while allowing our people to enjoy a better quality of life.And as demand becomes more balanced, it can lead to even broader prosperity.In 1979, the political cooperation between the United States and China was rooted largely in our shared rivalry with the Soviet Union.Today, we have a positive, constructive and comprehensive relationship that opens the door to partnership on the key global issues of our time--economic recovery and the development of clean energy;stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and the scourge of climate change;the promotion of peace and security in Asia and around the globe.All of these issues will be on the agenda tomorrow when I meet with President Hu.And in 1979, the connections among our people were limited.Today, we see the curiosity of those ping-pong players manifested in the ties that are being forged across many sectors.The second highest number of foreign students in the United States come from China, and we've seen a 50 percent increase in the study of Chinese among our own students.There are nearly 200 “friendship cities” drawing our communities together.American and Chinese scientists cooperate on new research and discovery.And of course, Yao Ming is just one signal of our shared love of basketball--I'm only sorry that I won't be able to see a Shanghai Sharks game while I'm visiting.It is no coincidence that the relationship between our countries has accompanied a period of positive change.China has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty--an accomplishment unparalleled in human history--while playing a larger role in global events.And the United States has seen our economy grow along with the standard of living enjoyed by our people, while bringing the Cold War to a successful conclusion.奧巴馬上海演講英文 四

There is a Chinese proverb: “Consider the past, and you shall know the future.” Surely, we have known setbacks and challenges over the last 30 years.Our relationship has not been without disagreement and difficulty.But the notion that we must be adversaries is not predestined--not when we consider the past.Indeed, because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and more secure.We have seen what is possible when we build upon our mutual interests, and engage on the basis of mutual respect.And yet the success of that engagement depends upon understanding--on sustaining an open dialogue, and learning about one another and from one another.For just as that American table tennis player pointed out--we share much in common as human beings, but our countries are different in certain ways.I believe that each country must chart its own course.China is an ancient nation, with a deeply rooted culture.The United States, by comparison, is a young nation, whose culture is determined by the many different immigrants who have come to our shores, and by the founding documents that guide our democracy.Those documents put forward a simple vision of human affairs, and they enshrine several core principles--that all men and women are created equal, and possess certain fundamental rights;that government should reflect the will of the people and respond to their wishes;that commerce should be open, information freely accessible;and that laws, and not simply men, should guarantee the administration of justice.Of course, the story of our nation is not without its difficult chapters.In many ways--over many years--we have struggled to advance the promise of these principles to all of our people, and to forge a more perfect union.We fought a very painful civil war, and freed a portion of our population from slavery.It took time for women to be extended the right to vote, workers to win the right to organize, and for immigrants from different corners of the globe to be fully embraced.Even after they were freed, African Americans persevered through conditions that were separate and not equal, before winning full and equal rights.None of this was easy.But we made progress because of our belief in those core principles, which have served as our compass through the darkest of storms.That is why Lincoln could stand up in the midst of civil war and declare it a struggle to see whether any nation, conceived in liberty, and “dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal” could long endure.That is why Dr.Martin Luther King could stand on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and ask that our nation live out the true meaning of its creed.That's why immigrants from China to Kenya could find a home on our shores;why opportunity is available to all who would work for it;and why someone like me, who less than 50 years ago would have had trouble voting in some parts of America, is now able to serve as its President.奧巴馬上海演講英文 五

And that is why America will always speak out for these core principles around the world.We do not seek to impose any system of government on any other nation, but we also don't believe that the principles that we stand for are unique to our nation.These freedoms of expression and worship--of access to information and political participation--we believe are universal rights.They should be available to all people, including ethnic and religious minorities--whether they are in the United States, China, or any nation.Indeed, it is that respect for universal rights that guides America's openness to other countries;our respect for different cultures;our commitment to international law;and our faith in the future.These are all things that you should know about America.I also know that we have much to learn about China.Looking around at this magnificent city--and looking around this room--I do believe that our nations hold something important in common, and that is a belief in the future.Neither the United States nor China is content to rest on our achievements.For while China is an ancient nation, you are also clearly looking ahead with confidence, ambition, and a commitment to see that tomorrow's generation can do better than today's.In addition to your growing economy, we admire China's extraordinary commitment to science and research--a commitment borne out in everything from the infrastructure you build to the technology you use.China is now the world's largest Internet user--which is why we were so pleased to include the Internet as a part of today's event.This country now has the world's largest mobile phone network, and it is investing in the new forms of energy that can both sustain growth and combat climate change--and I'm looking forward to deepening the partnership between the United States and China in this critical area tomorrow.But above all, I see China's future in you--young people whose talent and dedication and dreams will do so much to help shape the 21st century.I've said many times that I believe that our world is now fundamentally interconnected.The jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek--all of these things are shared.And given that interconnection, power in the 21st century is no longer a zero-sum game;one country's success need not come at the expense of another.And that is why the United States insists we do not seek to contain China's rise.On the contrary, we welcome China as a strong and prosperous and successful member of the community of nations--a China that draws on the rights, strengths, and creativity of individual Chinese like you.奧巴馬上海演講英文 六

To return to the proverb--consider the past.We know that more is to be gained when great powers cooperate than when they collide.That is a lesson that human beings have learned time and again, and that is the example of the history between our nations.And I believe strongly that cooperation must go beyond our government.It must be rooted in our people--in the studies we share, the business that we do, the knowledge that we gain, and even in the sports that we play.And these bridges must be built by young men and women just like you and your counterparts in America.That's why I'm pleased to announce that the United States will dramatically expand the number of our students who study in China to 100,000.And these exchanges mark a clear commitment to build ties among our people, as surely as you will help determine the destiny of the 21st century.And I'm absolutely confident that America has no better ambassadors to offer than our young people.For they, just like you, are filled with talent and energy and optimism about the history that is yet to be written.So let this be the next step in the steady pursuit of cooperation that will serve our nations, and the world.And if there's one thing that we can take from today's dialogue, I hope that it is a commitment to continue this dialogue going forward.So thank you very much.And I look forward now to taking some questions from all of you.Thank you very much.

第三篇：Obama奧巴馬感恩節演講中英對照

Good morning.Nearly 150 years ago, in one of the darkest years of our nation's history, President Abraham Lincoln set aside the last Thursday in November as a day of Thanksgiving.America was split by Civil War.But Lincoln said in his first Thanksgiving decree（頒布命令）that difficult times made it even more appropriate for our blessings to be(and I quote), “gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American people.”

This week, the American people came together with families and friends to carry on this distinctly American tradition.We gave thanks for loved ones and for our lasting pride in our communities and our country.We took comfort in good memories while looking forward to the promise of change.But this Thanksgiving also takes place at a time of great trial for our people.Across the country, there were empty seats at the table, as brave Americans continue to serve in harm’s way from the mountains of Afghanistan to the deserts of Iraq.We honor and give thanks for their sacrifice, and stand by the families who endure their absence with such dignity and resolve.At home, we face an economic crisis of historic proportions.More and more Americans are worried about losing a job or making their mortgage payment.Workers are wondering if next month's paycheck will pay next month's bills.Retirees are watching their savings disappear, and students are struggling with the cost of tuition.It's going to take bold and immediate action to confront this crisis.That's why I'm committed to forging a new beginning from the moment I take office as President of the United States.Earlier this week, I announced my economic team.This talented and dedicated group is already hard at work crafting an Economic Recovery Plan that will create or save 2.5 million new jobs, while making the investments we need to fuel long-term economic growth and stability.But this Thanksgiving, we're reminded that the renewal of our economy won't come from policies and plans alone.It will take the hard work, innovation, service, and strength of the American people.I've seen this strength firsthand over many months--in workers who are ready to power new industries, and farmers and scientists who can tap new sources of energy;in teachers who stay late after school, and parents who put in that extra hour reading to their kids;in young Americans enlisting in a time of war, seniors who volunteer their time, and service programs that bring hope to the hopeless.It's a testament to our national character that so many Americans took time out this Thanksgiving to help feed the hungry and care for the needy.On Wednesday, I visited a food bank at Saint Columbanus Parish in Chicago.And there, as in so many communities across America, folks pitched in time and resources to give a lift to their neighbors in need.It is this spirit that binds us together as one American family--the belief that we rise and fall as one people;that we want that American Dream not just for ourselves, but for each other.That's the spirit we must summon（召喚）as we make a new beginning for our nation.Times are tough.There are difficult months ahead.But we can renew our nation the same way that we have in the many years since Lincoln's first Thanksgiving: by coming together to overcome adversity;by reaching for--and working for--new horizons of opportunity for all Americans.So this weekend, with one heart, and one voice, the American people can give thanks that a new and brighter day is yet to come.

Remarks by President Obama at the Opening Plenary Session of the

Nuclear Security Summit Washington Convention Center

Washington, D.C.April 13, 2010 總統在核安全峰會全體會議開幕式上的講話 華盛頓哥倫比亞特區 華盛頓會議中心

2010年4月13日

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning, everybody.I'd like to get started.Let me begin by thanking all of you for your participation last night.I thought it was a very important discussion.總統：各位早上好。現在會議開始。首先感謝諸位參加昨晚的活動，我認為我們進行了非常重要的討論。

Before I begin, I want to take this moment once again to acknowledge the terrible tragedy that struck the Polish people this weekend.We are joined today by a distinguished delegation from Poland, led by Ambassador Kupiecki.Mr.Ambassador, all of us were shocked and deeply saddened by the devastating loss of President Kaczynski, the First Lady, and so many distinguished civilian and military leaders from your country.This was a loss, not just for Poland, but for the world.在進入會議程序之前，我想利用這一時刻再次就上個周末發生的悲慘事件向波蘭人民表示慰問。今天，由庫比埃基（Kupiecki）大使率領的尊貴的波蘭代表團在此參加會議。大使先生，我們大家都為痛失卡欽斯基（Kaczynski）總統、第一夫人和貴國如此眾多的軍政領導人而深感震驚和哀傷。這不僅是波蘭的損失，也是世界的損失。

As a close friend and ally, the United States stands with Poland and Poles everywhere in these very difficult days.As an international community, I know that we will all rally around the Polish people, who have shown extraordinary strength and resilience throughout their history.So our hearts go out to your people.Our thoughts and prayers are with them.We join them in this time of mourning.And so, if everybody is agreeable, I would like to ask for a moment of silence to show that solidarity and to honor those who were lost.在這些困難的日子里，美國作為親密的盟友與波蘭和全世界的波蘭人站在一起。作為國際大家庭，我知道我們大家都會團結在波蘭人民的周圍，波蘭人民在其整個歷史中始終顯示出非凡的力量和堅毅的精神。我們對貴國人民深表同情。我們與他們一道思念和祈禱。我們在這一時刻與他們共同哀悼。為此，如果大家同意，我提議大家默哀片刻，以表示我們心心相連，并向遇難者表示敬意。(Pause for moment of silence.)（默哀）

Thank you.It is my privilege to welcome you to Washington and to formally convene this historic summit.We represent 47 nations from every region of the world, and I thank each of you for being here.This is an unprecedented gathering to address an unprecedented threat.謝謝。能夠在此歡迎你們來到華盛頓，正式舉行這個歷史性峰會，我深感榮幸。我們代表了來自全世界各地區的47個國家，我感謝你們每一個人的光臨。這是一次為應對前所未有的威脅而舉行的史無前例的會議。

Two decades after the end of the Cold War, we face a cruel irony of history--the risk of a nuclear confrontation between nations has gone down, but the risk of nuclear attack has gone up.在冷戰結束20年后，我們面對歷史的無情諷刺——國家之間發生核對抗的風險下降了，但核攻擊的危險卻上升了。

Nuclear materials that could be sold or stolen and fashioned into a nuclear weapon exist in dozens of nations.Just the smallest amount of plutonium--about the size of an apple--could kill and injure hundreds of thousands of innocent people.Terrorist networks such as al Qaeda have tried to acquire the material for a nuclear weapon, and if they ever succeeded, they would surely use it.Were they to do so, it would be a catastrophe for the world--causing extraordinary loss of life, and striking a major blow to global peace and stability.可能被出售、盜竊和制成核武器的核材料存在于數十個國家。哪怕是最少量的钚——蘋果般大小的钚——都有可能造成數十萬無辜者的傷亡。“基地”組織之類的恐怖網絡企圖獲取制造核武器的材料，他們一旦得逞，毫無疑問會使用這種武器。如果他們這么做，將給世界帶來巨大的災難，造成生命的巨大損失，使世界和平與穩定遭受重大的打擊。

In short, it is increasingly clear that the danger of nuclear terrorism is one of the greatest threats to global security--to our collective security.簡言之，人們越來越清楚地看到，核恐怖主義危險構成對全球安全，對我們的共同安全最重大的威脅之一。

And that's why, one year ago today in--one year ago in Prague, I called for a new international effort to secure all vulnerable nuclear materials around the world in four years.This is one part of a broader, comprehensive agenda that the United States is pursuing--including reducing our nuclear arsenal and stopping the spread of nuclear weapons--an agenda that will bring us closer to our ultimate goal of a world without nuclear weapons.正是因為這個原因，一年前的今天——一年前我在布拉格呼吁國際社會作出新的努力，用四年時間確保世界各地所有易散失的核材料得到安全保障。這是美國正在尋求的、包括削減我們的核庫存和制止核擴散在內的、更廣泛更全面的議程的一個組成部分。該議程將使我們更接近一個沒有核武器的世界這一最終目標。Over the past year, we've made progress.At the United Nations Security Council last fall, we unanimously passed Resolution 1887 endorsing this comprehensive agenda, including the goal of securing all nuclear materials.Last night, in closed session, I believe we made further progress, pursuing a shared understanding of the grave threat to our people.在過去一年中，我們已經取得了進展。去年秋季，在聯合國安理會的會議上，我們一致通過了第1887號決議，支持此一綜合性議程，包括保障全部核材料安全的目標。我認為，在昨晚的非公開會議中，我們努力嘗試就各國人民面臨的這一嚴重威脅達成共識，取得了進一步的進展。

gathering Washington Convention Center, Washington, D.C.April 13, 2010 美國總統奧巴馬發表核峰會閉幕詞

華盛頓會議中心

華盛頓哥倫比亞特區 2010年4月13日

THE PRESIDENT: Good afternoon, everybody.We have just concluded an enormously productive day.總統：大家好。我們剛剛結束了成就斐然的一天。

I said this morning that today would be an opportunity for our nations, both individually and collectively, to make concrete commitments and take tangible steps to secure nuclear materials so they never fall into the hands of terrorists who would surely use them.我在上午說過，今天我們各國面臨一個機會，可以分別和共同作出具體承諾和采取明確措施，確保核材料的安全，防止核材料落入那些無疑會利用它們的恐怖主義分子手中。

This evening, I can report that we have seized this opportunity, and because of the steps we’ve taken--as individual nations and as an international community--the American people will be safer and the world will be more secure.今晚，我可以這么說，我們成功地把握了這一機遇，作為具體的國家和國際社會，我們已經采取了措施，美國人民將因此更安全，世界將更穩定。

I want to thank all who participated in this historic summit--49 leaders from every region of the world.Today’s progress was possible because these leaders came not simply to talk, but to take action;not simply to make vague pledges of future action, but to commit to meaningful steps that they are prepared to implement right now.我謹在此感謝出席這一具有歷史意義的峰會的全體代表，來自世界各地區的49位領導人。今天之所以能取得進展，是因為這些領導人不僅與會發言，而且采取行動；不是含糊地承諾在未來采取行動，而是承諾他們準備立即實施的有意義的步驟。

I also want to thank my colleagues for the candor and cooperative spirit that they brought to the discussions.This was not a day of long speeches or lectures on what other nations must do.We listened to each other, with mutual respect.We recognized that while different countries face different challenges, we have a mutual interest in securing these dangerous materials.我還要感謝各位同仁在討論中所表現的坦率與合作精神。今天并無冗長的講話，亦無要求別國如何是從的訓誡。我們互相傾聽、互相尊重。我們認識到，雖然不同國家面臨不同的挑戰，但我們有著共同的利益，即確保這些危險核材料的安全。So today is a testament to what is possible when nations come together in a spirit of partnership to embrace our shared responsibility and confront a shared challenge.This is how we will solve problems and advance the security of our people in the 21st century.And this is reflected in the communiqué that we have unanimously agreed to today.因此，當許多國家本著合作精神走到一起承擔我們共同的職責和應對共同的挑戰時，就能大有作為，今天這一點得到了驗證。這將是我們在21世紀解決問題和增進人民安全的途徑。這也體現在今天我們一致通過的公報之中。

First, we agreed on the urgency and seriousness of the threat.Coming into this summit, there were a range of views on this danger.But at our dinner last night, and throughout the day, we developed a shared understanding of the risk.首先，我們就這一威脅的緊迫性和嚴峻性達成了共識。在參加本屆峰會之際，人們對這一威脅眾說紛紜。然而，經過昨天晚餐席間乃至今天全天的討論，我們對這一威脅達成了共同的理解。

Today, we are declaring that nuclear terrorism is one of the most challenging threats to international security.We also agreed that the most effective way to prevent terrorists and criminals from acquiring nuclear materials is through strong nuclear security--protecting nuclear materials and preventing nuclear smuggling.今天，我們宣布核恐怖主義是國際安全所面臨的最具挑戰性的威脅之一。我們還一致認為，防止恐怖主義分子和罪犯獲得核材料的最有效方法就是加強核安全——保護核材料和防止核販運。

Second, I am very pleased that all the nations represented here have endorsed the goal that I outlined in Prague one year ago--to secure all vulnerable nuclear materials around the world in four years' time.This is an ambitious goal, and we are under no illusions that it will be easy.But the urgency of the threat, and the catastrophic consequences of even a single act of nuclear terrorism, demand an effort that is at once bold and pragmatic.And this is a goal that can be achieved.第二，我非常欣慰的是，所有與會國對我一年前在布拉格所闡述的目標予以支持，即在四年時間內確保世界所有易失散核材料的安全。這是一項宏偉目標，我們非常清楚達到這項目標并非易事。然而，由于該威脅的緊迫性，還由于哪怕一次核恐怖主義攻擊即可導致巨大災難，我們需要作出既大膽又務實的努力。這是一個能夠實現的目標。

Third, we reaffirmed that it is the fundamental responsibility of nations, consistent with their international obligations, to maintain effective security of the nuclear materials and facilities under our control.This includes strengthening national laws and policies, and fully implementing the commitments we have agreed to.第三，我們重申，根據各國的國際義務，各國承擔著基本的責任，必須以有效的方式保障我們控制之下的核材料及核設施的安全。這包括加強國家法律和政策，全面履行我們一致同意的承諾。

And fourth, we recognized that even as we fulfill our national responsibilities, this threat cannot be addressed by countries working in isolation.So we've committed ourselves to a sustained, effective program of international cooperation on national [sic] security, and we call on other nations to join us.第四，我們認識到，即使在我們履行各自的國家職責時，也需要各國通力合作才能消除這一威脅。因此，我們已承諾致力于持久而有效的計劃，就國家安全進行國際合作，我們呼吁其他國家與我們攜手努力。

It became clear in our discussions that we do not need lots of new institutions and layers of bureaucracy.We need to strengthen the institutions and partnerships that we already have-— and make them even more effective.This includes the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency, the multilateral partnership that strengthens nuclear security, prevent nuclear trafficking and assist nations in building their capacity to secure their nuclear materials.我們的討論得出的一項明確結論是，我們并不需要太多的新機制和重疊的機構。我們需要加強現有機制與合作關系，使它們更有效。這包括聯合國、國際原子能機構、以及加強核安全、防止核販運、協助各國建設核材料安全保障能力的多邊伙伴關系。

第五篇：奧巴馬演講六技巧

奧巴馬演講六技巧

美國給這代人選出了一位最厲害的政治演說家。

可能覺得從巴拉克〃奧巴馬的演講技巧中，你沒什么可以學的。你要面對是職員、管理團隊和潛在客戶；而奧巴馬在芝加哥的格蘭特公園，向20萬人發表演說。根本就是不搭調嘛！下面根據奧巴馬在格蘭特

公園發表的提名演講，說6個演講技巧，你可以學學。

1、了解觀眾

在格蘭特公園，對著20萬觀眾演講，奧巴馬很容易踩到地雷。他沒有。他對著在家里起居室里的美國人講話；他對著投票給麥凱恩的人講話；他對著全世界關注他的人講話，從各國政要到窮國中最窮的人。他知道觀眾是誰。

“告訴那些遠隔千山萬水的人們；告訴各國議會和各國王室；告訴那些被世界遺忘的角落里、擠在一起收聽廣播的人們，我們的故事千差萬別，但我們的命運休戚與共，美國領導的新時代即將到來。”

2、在故事中，涵蓋觀點

美國歷史上，長期爭取民權的運動，使奧巴馬參選成為可能。奧巴馬用安妮〃迪克森〃庫珀的故事，表達了這個觀點。庫珀是一位106歲高齡的女性，她的父母是奴隸；她經歷了民權運動的幾個重要里程碑。

“她出生時，上一代剛剛結束奴隸制；當時，路上沒有車子，天空沒有飛機；象她一樣的那些人，因為兩個原因不能投票：因為她是女人，因為她皮膚的顏色。”

這樣感染力強多了，效果比干巴巴的歷史課棒多了。

3、在觀眾的腦海中描繪圖案

奧巴馬用特定、具體的詞匯給我們留下了深刻的印象。舉幾個例子：

“我們的事業不是華盛頓高墻下的蛋。它的起源在得梅因的后院，在康科德的起居室，在查爾斯頓的前廊。”（得梅因、康科德、查爾斯頓均為美國城鎮。——譯者注。）

“即使今晚，我們站在這里；我們也知道，那些勇敢的美國人行進在伊拉克的戈壁灘上，行進在阿富汗的崇山峻嶺中。用他們的生命，為我們冒險。”

“總而言之，我請你加入重建國家的行列，過去221年，在美國，這是唯一路——用一雙雙布滿老繭的雙手，一磚一瓦地努力，一個街區一個街區地努力。”

4、有人情味

巴拉克〃奧巴馬告訴全世界，他將給兩個女兒弄一只小狗，并且帶到白宮里。全世界人都喜歡這個。在首次新聞發布會上，他說，這是他網站上最熱門的話題。

5、娓娓道來，舉重若輕

奧巴馬說話并不快。他等著觀眾明白，以及互動。這讓他的話有分量。你也可以這樣。

6、明暗色彩

奧巴馬的競選演說有不同的感情色彩：歡快——幽默——嚴肅——親密——堅定。如此變化牢牢吸引著人——當你上臺時，也表現自己的明暗色彩。
