Passage Translation
If you are required to give a presentation or speech, just remember: make the structure and points of what you are saying obvious to the audience. Don’t be afraid to rephrase and summarize your main points to make sure that you get them across. But make it enjoyable for the audience too, by being amusing if it’s appropriate, or by perhaps illustrating points you make with an anecdote or an analogy. Something that is too abstract and theoretical can be a bit tedious to listen to for too long. Anyway, we can discuss that in great detail when you’ve got your subject chosen.
如果需要做演示或演讲的话，请牢记：清晰明了地把你所要说的结构和要点传达给听众。为了确保观众领悟到演讲要点，请大胆地进行重新措辞或者归纳。适当的玩笑，或者引用轶事或比喻，可以使得你的演讲更加有意思。太抽象和太理论化的冗长演讲，都会显得乏味无趣。 总之，等选定讲题后可以进一步探讨。
