What’s the main point the speaker makes?
Today we’re going to evaluate the main tool used when addressing groups the voice. There are three main elements that combine to create either a positive or negative experience for listeners. They can result in a voice that is pleasing to listen to and can be used effectively. Or they can create a voice that doesn’t hold attention, or even worse, causes an adverse reaction.
The three elements are volume, pitch, and pace; When evaluating volume, keep in mind that a good speaker will adjust to the size of both the room and the audience. Of course, with an amplifying device like a microphone, the speaker can use a natural tone. But speakers should not be dependent on microphones a good speaker can speak loudly without shouting.
The second element, pitch, is related to the highness or lowness of the sounds. High pitches are, for most people, more difficult to listen to, so in general speakers should use the lower registers of their voice. During a presentation, it’s important to vary pitch to some extent in order to maintain interest.
Pace, that is how fast or slow words and sounds are articulated, should also be varied. A slower pace can be used to emphasize important points. Note that the time spent not speaking can be meaningful, too. Pauses ought to be used to signal transitions or create anticipation. Pauses can be very effective when moving from one topic to another.
选项
A、Speak very loudly.
B、Ask questions frequently.
C、Vary tone, volume and speed of speech.
D、Limit the speech to a short one.
答案
C
解析
本题测试对重要内容的理解能力。根据文中的关键信息,如“a good speaker will adjust to the size of both the room and the audience”,“it’s important to vary pitch”,“Pace...should also be varied”,可知讲话者建议要变化声音中的几个重要元素以抓住听众的注意力,因此可以推测正确答案为C。
