Students in American schools learn from an early age to give presentations as part of their regular classroom activities. Children as young as five years old often give brief talks about objects they bring in to school—called "show and tell," this training is a basis for later public speaking. Even so, many native English-speaking adults are afraid to speak or give presentations in front of a large group.
Speaking English in public meetings is necessary for many students and employees. The best way to improve is to practice public speaking in a friendly environment. Learners need to receive feedback about what they are doing well and about their mistakes. One group that gives members the chance to practice is Toastmasters.
Toastmasters is an international organization that holds weekly meetings. At the meetings, members each give a speech and give others advice about their speeches and speaking style.
Charles LeBeau is a public speaking professor and consultant. He began his career in Japan in 1982. Currently, he teaches at two universities and at the Toshiba International Training Center. He has also written books on the subject. English language learners around the world use his book Speaking of Speech. Speaking of Speech tells about a method of teaching public speaking for non-native speakers. Mr. LeBeau says a simple approach helps English learners.
"The approach that I’ve taken is to simplify and break it down. First if we look at presentation, what’s going on, there are basically three messages that the presenter is giving the audience, all simultaneously. There’s what I call the physical message. Physical message is basically body language. It’s the way that my body, as a speaker, is talking to the audience. And then there’s also the visual message. The visual messages are the slides that we now make and show the audience. The third message is the story message. The story message is the content of our presentation. So another way we can think of the story message is that it’s the verbal message, it’s what we say to the audience. The story message also includes how we organize our ideas to present to the audience," LeBeau said.
In the next "Speaking Tips" we will explore Charles LeBeau’s recommendations for improving the Physical Message. He thinks this is the public speaking skill that is easiest for English learners to improve quickly.
20. What does the speaker say about American children?
21. What does the lecture tell us about Toastmasters?
22. What is true of Charles LeBeau?
选项
A、They give presentations at a relatively older age.
B、They give brief talks about subjects in school.
C、They do "show and tell" to improve public speaking.
D、They all grow up to be good public speakers.
答案
C
解析
录音指出,美国孩子在学校进行名为“show and tell”的活动,作为训练公共演讲技巧的基础,C项“美国孩子通过show and tell提高公共演讲能力”,是对该处录音内容的同义归纳,为正确答案。文中提到美国学生很小就开始练习演讲,而非A项提到的“较大才开始训练”,故A项错误。录音提到美国学生在做show and tell的活动时,以自己带回学校的物件作为主题,而非B项所表达的以“学校开设的学科”为主题。录音中提到,即使从小训练,很多人长大后还是害怕演讲,而非D项所表达的“大家都成长为优秀的演讲者”。
