Listen to the questions or topics carefully
Though speeches can be prepared in advance, there is still the challenge of answering questions from judges.____17____ Here the professor gave an example: A contestant talked about her dog’s bravery, and the judges asked if she could offer an example. Instead of talking about bravery, she rambled on (漫谈) about different types of dogs such as guide dogs and police dogs. It was not to the point, and not an effective answer.
____18____
Compassion (同理心) is important for public speakers.____19____ The professor offered another example: When a contestant mentioned that hitting a snowman is fun, the judge asked,“ Have you ever thought about the snowman’s feelings ”Without consideration, the boy replied, “Snowmen do not have emotions. ”
If the contestant had given a humorous answer, he could have a much better interaction with the audience.____20____
A. Put yourself in others’ shoes.
B. It helps the audience relate to the speaker.
C. Practing is of great help to a speaker.
D. Listening carefully can help you be an effective, focused speaker.
E. Therefore, he was not a good speaker.
F. As the professor put it, “Communication is the final purpose of public speaking.”
G. Practicing may help speakers not feel as nervous, but over-preparing can be a pitfall (隐患).
