The best speeches often
35、take on a HLLYBQ 整理 供“高中试卷网（http:/sj.fjjy.org） ” 6 combination of all three of these components. However, before you can go about the writing of a great speech, it is important to set goals. Goals keep you, your speech and your audience focused. What a goal is In the context of a speech, a goal is t
36、he purpose of the speech, and what it hopes to accomplish. For example, the goal of a eulogy (颂歌) might be to celebrate the life of a loved one. The goal of a speech at a political gathering would be to inform the crowd about the political position of a candidate and persuade them to vote and campai
37、gn for the candidate in question. Why a goal is important Without a goal, a speech is without direction. The goal informs the structure and content of the speech. For example, if a speechs goal is to convince people that smoking is bad for them, the speech will be structured with persuasive argument
38、s to back up the goal. A speech with a goal of informing the audience will keep the information fair and factual. A goal is incredibly important to the speechs ability to connect with an audience. If the speaker is unaware of the goal of the speech, the audience will likely be unaware as well. This
39、severely reduces the effectiveness of the message. Aside from informing the audience of the content and structure, a speechs goal drives the speaker to greater heights. If a speaker is asked to speak on a specific subject, but never establishes the goal, they wont know where to start in the research
40、, organizing and writing of the speech. _ If you have been charged with (被委以) delivering a speech, establishing a goal can seem difficult at first. There are several things to take into consideration. First, think about who you will be speaking to. The demographic (人口统计) of your audience will likely
41、 determine whether you will be able to persuade them, or whether they will be able to sit through. Second, think about the topic itself. If the topic is something controversial（有争议的), it may be worth your while to consider an informative approach to present both sides of the issue. Finally, consider
42、 your resources. A speech with an informative or persuasive goal usually requires a great deal of research, and sometimes takes more time to write. 61. According to the passage, what three components does the best speech combine? A. Informing, delivering and entertaining. B. Informing, persuading an
43、d entertaining. C. Informing, writing and delivering. D. Informing, writing and persuading. 62. The goal of a speech at a political gathering might be _. A. to persuade the audience to vote for a candidate B. to celebrate the life of a person you admire C. to entertain the audience with humor and ma
44、gic D. to persuade the audience to buy new products 63. All the following indicate the importance of a speech goal EXCEPT that _. A. a speech will lose its direction without a goal B. a speech goal can help keep the audience aware of the speech C. a speech goal can help the speaker know about the re
45、search, organizing and writing D. a speech goal makes it possible for the speaker to achieve whatever he wants in life 64.
