How to Protect the Art of Public Speaking
If you want to become the type of speaker you've always wanted to be, read the following suggestions.
① You can't go from a nervous speaker to a star speaker overnight. You shouldn't expect to. Give yourself time to get used to a large audience. Start with smaller groups and get as much feedback as you can. Keep on practicing and developing your skills.
② Be familiar with your speech materials. That doesn't mean memorizing your speech, which can lack enthusiasm and naturalness. Know your key talking points, supporting details and ways to move from one point to the next.
③ Positive energy can be passed. If you're excited and enthusiastic, your audience will be, too. You'll be surprised at the positive cycle that creates. An enthusiastic audience can add even more energy to you. Use hand gestures. When appropriate, smile, smile, smile.
④ Find friendly, interested faces in the audience and speak to them. Look into their eyes. It helps prevent you from staring off into the distance or reading from notes. It also helps make you feel like you are talking in a conversation rather than speaking to a group.
⑤ When you look great, you feel great. That makes you confident. Looking great doesn't mean wearing new clothes. It means wearing clothes and shoes you feel comfortable and appropriate to the setting. You can't go wrong with business suit. Simple is fine, but you should look clean from head to toe.

【文章大意】如何保护公开演讲的艺术
如果你想成为一直想成为的演讲者类型，请阅读以下建议。
① 你不可能一夜之间从紧张的演说家变成明星演说家。你不该指望这个。给自己一些时间来适应大量的观众。从较少的群体开始，尽可能多地获得反馈。继续练习和发展你的技能。
② 熟悉演讲材料。这并不意味着要背你的演讲，因为这样可能缺乏热情并且不够自然。了解你谈话的关键要点、支撑细节以及过渡的方法。
③ 可以传递正能量。如果你感到兴奋和热情，你的听众也会如此。你会惊讶于这样创造出的积极循环：热情的观众可以为你增添更多的能量。使用手势。在适当的时候，微笑，微笑，微笑。
④ 在听众中找到友好、感兴趣的面孔并与他们交谈。看着他们的眼睛。这样有助于防止你凝视远方或阅读笔记。它还有助于让你感觉自己是在交谈，而不是面对一群人说话。
⑤ 当你看起来很棒时，你也会感觉很棒。这让你充满信心。看起来很棒并不意味着穿新衣服。这意味穿着舒适且适合环境的衣服和鞋子。西装不会出错。简单很好，但你应该从头到脚看起来干净。
