春喜外語教你職場英語演講中“三的法則”

1. The audience arelikely to remember only three things from your presentation – plan in advancewhat these will be.
聽眾或許只會從你的演講中記住三樣東西——都是什么呢？提前做好計劃！
 
Believe it or not, the chances are,people will only remember three things from your presentation. So before youstart writing your presentation, plan what your three key messages will be.Once you have these messages, structure the main part of your presentationaround these three key themes and look at how they could be better illustrated.
不管你信不信，聽眾只能記住三點與你演講有關的內容。因此在開始寫演講稿之前，就要確定好你最關鍵的三條信息。一旦你確定了這些信息，圍繞這三個主題構建你演講的主要內容并考慮如何更好的闡述。
 
2. There are three partsto your presentation
 你的演講包含三個部分
 
The beginning, the middle and the end.Start to plan out what you will do in these three parts. The beginning is idealfor an attention grabber or for an ice breaker. The end is great to wrap thingsup or to end with a grand finale.
開場、正文、結尾。開始規劃你要在這三部分講什么，典型的開場就是吸引注意力或是破冰，結尾可以把所講的內容回顧一番或是來一個壓軸戲。
 
3. Use lists of threewherever you can in your presentation
 演講中盡可能將觀點列為三點進行表達
 
Lists of three have been used fromearly times up to the present day. They are particularly used by politiciansand advertisers who know the value of using the rule of three to sell theirideas.
列為三點這種方式已經從過去沿用至今，它們熟練的被政治家和廣告制作人用來銷售他們的理念，因為他們深知“三的法則”的價值。

A classic example of the rule of threewas Winston Churchill’s famous Blood, Sweat and Tears speech. He is widelyattributed as saying I can promise you nothing but blood sweat and tears. Whathe actually said was “I can promise you Blood, Sweat, Toil and Tears”. Becauseof the rule of three we simply remember it as Blood sweat and tears.
有關“三的法則”享有盛名的就是丘吉爾的“血、汗和淚水”的演說，人們普遍認為他當時說的是：我能奉獻的唯有血、汗和淚水，實際上他說了什么呢？“我能奉獻的唯有血、汗、辛勞和淚水”，因為“三的法則”我們僅僅只記住了血、汗和淚水。
 
4. In Presentations “Lessis More”
 在演講中“少即是多”
 
If you have four points to get across –cut one out. They won’t remember it anyway. In presentations less really ismore. No one ever complained of a presentation being too short.
如果你有四個要點要闡述——那就去掉一個，他們是無論如何也記不下那個的。在演講中“少即是多”，沒有人會因為一場演講太過簡短而抱怨的。
