章节摘录

　　3. Oral presentation in English is a skill to be trained and practiced.　　For the reasons discussed above, a course in oral presentation or public speaking is offered at colleges and universities in many foreign countries, and now is offered in China, too. It is not easy to master the ability to speak publicly and effectively, which requires a great deal of training and practice. We started to offer a course of oral presentation in English two years ago and ever since we have made many significant improvements. Now we are using the classroom as a training ground where students can practice in real-life situations. This practice will help them to develop a skill useful for the rest of their lives.　　4. Oral presentation in English is a performance as well as a skill.　　Oral presentations are often made with the help of visual aids. Presentations are given by presenters in carefully structured sections to a chosen audience. There can be numerous purposes for a presentation: to inform, to describe, to explain, to promote or to persuade, to entertain or to express goodwill, to name but a few. At the end of a presentation, the presenter may offer to answer any questions the audience would like to ask. Feedback is thus obtained and the purpose, achieved. Clearly then, a presentation is also a performance.　　A presentation is a skill that involves performance. This course will tell you how to prepare, practice and perform a good presentation for whatever purpose.　For example, if you have prepared an English essay describing the people you met or an event you witnessed or heard about on a tour, you can make a presentation in oral English with visuals accompanying it. This would be a vivid and effective way to inform your audience about the people or event. There may be many instances in which presentation skills may be required. When you talk about your graduation paper or thesis, give the main ideas, arguments, supporting details with the assistance of charts and graphs, photos and pictures to illustrate your points. When you respond to an interview for a job, you should present yourself in an effective way. When you introduce your school, institution, or company to visitors, you can give a presentation to describe and to inform.
