DTM Kushal Ashok’s Speech Contest Cheat Book（DTM“阿肖克”解析頭馬演講比賽評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)）Speech contests are one of the most crucial parts of a toastmaster's journey.I joined the contest twice since I came to China and gained a lot of insights into the process of speech preparation, delivery, revision, and improvement. In this post, I am going to share my experiences while bifurcating each of the judging criteria which are used by the contest judges. 演講比賽是頭馬會員旅程中最重要的部分之一。來到中國后,，我參加了兩次演講比賽,，在準(zhǔn)備、呈現(xiàn),、改稿,、提升的過程中收獲了很多洞見。我將通過這篇文章,，和大家分享我的比賽經(jīng)驗(yàn),，解析裁判的評審標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。 Why use the judging criteria? Because we need to understand the requirements before we try to fulfill them. We need to understand the gaps between our current performance and the one expected by judges. For doing so, we need to do a lot of trials. I like the Chinese proverb that says, "玉不琢,、不成器" i.e. A gem is not polished without rubbing, nor a man perfected without trials. 為什么要研讀比賽評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn),？如果我們想要寫一篇成功的比賽演講稿，那么需要先了解優(yōu)秀演講有哪些要求,，并且認(rèn)識到自身表現(xiàn)和裁判期待之間的差距在哪里,。為了找到差距，我們需要反復(fù)試煉,。我非常喜歡一句諺語,，“玉不琢、不成器”,。不經(jīng)打磨,，玉石無法圓潤光滑；不經(jīng)試煉,，演講人無法漸入佳境,。
Let’s start with the one with maximum weightage. Speech development includes structure, organization and supporting material. If you want to learn how to structure, organize and support your speech, follow your manuals. My cheat book tip is to choose a topic that you are most familiar with. The more familiar you are with the topic, the better your speech development will be. If you feel like your life does not have enough interesting events to write a speech about, think again and include every single thing that happens with you or that you observe during a day. We can make at least 10 different observations during our daily commute. 演講布局這一項(xiàng)占比最重（20分）。它包括結(jié)構(gòu),、組織,、論點(diǎn)論據(jù)三小項(xiàng)。關(guān)于如何架構(gòu)演講,、組織演講以及用論點(diǎn)論據(jù)支撐演講,，建議大家看！手,！冊,！我的小技巧是選擇一個你最為熟悉的話題。話題越熟悉,，你的演講就越熟練,。 如果你認(rèn)為自己生活中沒有那么多有趣的事可以放到演講中,，那么，再想一想,！把每天你觀察或經(jīng)歷的每一件小事都列出來,。我們可以從日常生活中發(fā)現(xiàn)至少10個點(diǎn)。
This includes the achievement of purpose, interest, and reception. All these points boil down to the fact that you have to entertain the audience, you have to grab their attention and make them remember your speech. You can do this using voice modulation and body language.My cheat book tip is to use reiteration and reassurance. If you borrowed money from someone and told him only once that you will return it. On the other hand, if you reiterated your promise several times and kept reassuring the person that you will definitely return it on time you can create a sense of trust. Same goes with the audience who needs to trust you. So don't forget to reassure them and repeat the things you want them to remember. 演講效果（15分）包括目的達(dá)成,、趣味性和觀眾接受度,。這幾項(xiàng)，說白了,，意味著作為演講者的你需要去“取悅”觀眾,，抓住觀眾的注意力，讓觀眾記住你的演講,。你可以通過聲音變化和肢體語言等輔助手段,。我的小技巧是重復(fù)和肯定！ 設(shè)想這樣一個場景：你想從別人那兒借錢,。與你只告訴TA一次“我會還你的”相比,，如果你把還錢的承諾向?qū)Ψ椒磸?fù)提及，并且非?？隙ǖ馗嬖V對方你一定會按時還錢,，那么你跟借款人之間會建立信任。同樣,，演講比賽中,，你也需要與觀眾建立這種信任。所以,，不要忘了重復(fù)要點(diǎn),，讓觀眾相信，讓觀眾記??！
This includes ideas, logic and original thought. My cheat book tip for this section is to first finalize the stories you are planning to share and then link them together with a proper transition. Your transitions should be logical and feel natural. This requires a bit of creative writing for which you can refer to online tutorials of screenplay writing. It will help you understand how to transition using sentence that maintain the original thought. 演講價值（15分）考核的是論點(diǎn),、邏輯性和原創(chuàng)性,。我的秘訣是把演講中用到的故事寫成獨(dú)立片段，然后用合適的邏輯將他們銜接起來,。銜接語言必須符合邏輯并且自然不生硬,。這要求演講人具備創(chuàng)造性寫作的能力。如何提升,？可以參照劇本撰寫相關(guān)的在線教學(xué)資料,。它會教你在保持原故事要義的同時使用恰當(dāng)?shù)恼Z句過度。
This includes appearance, body language and speaking area. The first time I attended the contest in India, I did not wear a tie.After the contest, one of the experienced toastmasters told me that I should have worn the tie and use my best appearance on stage. My cheat book tip for this section is to always wear formals unless your speech topic requires a specific attire/costume. 肢體（10分）包括儀表儀態(tài),、肢體語言和演講區(qū)域使用,。我第一次在印度參加頭馬比賽的時候,，沒有打領(lǐng)帶。賽后,，一位老頭馬跟我說,，我應(yīng)該打領(lǐng)帶，給舞臺呈現(xiàn)最好的儀態(tài),。所以,，除非你的演講主題需要你準(zhǔn)備特殊的服飾，比賽時穿正裝一定不會錯,！
This includes flexibility and volume. My cheat book tip for this section is to practice the speech in front of mirror and exaggerate every emotion that you have. Using your emotions is the best way to produce a natural yet flexible voice. 聲音（10分）包括變化性和音量,。我的獨(dú)門秘訣是在鏡子前練習(xí)，練習(xí)中把每一個情緒都夸張地做出來,。擅用情緒是事聲音多變且呈現(xiàn)自然的最佳法門,。
This includes directness, assurance and enthusiasm.My tip for this section is to select a topic that is close to your heart.If you truly believe in the idea that you are sharing, your enthusiasm will naturally be more. If you don't feel the connect with your topic, try watching more videos, reading more articles, learning more facts about it to bring it closer to your heart. We get interested in things that we read about, that we talk about and that we like sharing with others. If you can read and talk about your topic without getting bored, that means it's the right topic for you. 態(tài)度風(fēng)格（10分）包括率直、自信和熱情,。選擇自己最有感的話題是我的建議,。如果你真的相信自己的觀點(diǎn)，那么自然會流露出熱情,。當(dāng)你對自己的話題沒太有感覺的時候,，嘗試看更多的視頻、閱讀更多文章,、了解更多信息,，加強(qiáng)自己和演講話題之間的連接。通過閱讀,、交流以及和別人分享,，我們會對某個話題建立起興趣。如果你閱讀或是交流一個話題時并不感覺無聊,，那么,，它，就是讓你有感的話題,！
This includes purpose and audience. My tip for this section is to study your audience. Not just in the way suggested by the manuals, but also by any other means possible. Connect with fellow toastmasters using social networks like WeChat. Instead of rote learning your speech, go and say hi to the members of your audience. Try to learn more about them, their profession and their hobbies. These connections will help you a lot while you are delivering the speech on stage. 適當(dāng)適合（10分）包括目的和觀眾,。了解你的觀眾很重要！除了手冊上的一些了解觀眾的做法之外,，其它方法也是可以的,，比如加微信。比賽時,，與其一遍一遍練習(xí)自己的稿子,，四處走動和觀眾打招呼也是不錯的。在互動中認(rèn)識更多人,，了解他們的職業(yè)是什么,，興趣愛好是什么,。這些與觀眾的鏈接將有助于你在舞臺上的發(fā)揮。
This includes grammar, pronunciation and word selection. My tip for this section is to only use the words that you can describe with confidence. It doesn't meant that you should not include any difficult or complex words at all. It means that you should be able to describe those words in your own manner. For instance the word misunderstanding can be remembered by creating a funny backdrop story like misunderstanding ->"Miss under standing" -> "The lady is standing downstairs" -> "The lady is standing downstairs since her heels are so high that she can't climb the stairs. You are unable to understand why can't she simply remove the heels? " By making such funny stories, you can remember even the most difficult words and can even explain them if required. (in your own funny way). 正確清晰（10分）主要考察文法,、發(fā)音和用詞,。我的建議是只用你特別有把握的詞。我并不是讓大家不要用難詞或復(fù)雜詞匯,，而且說,，大家應(yīng)該讓詞匯使用符合自己的語言風(fēng)格。 對于長難單詞的記憶,，可以通過拆解,、然后編故事的方式記住。比如misunderstanding,，可以拆成miss under 和standing,，然后編故事。（Kushal編了個什么有趣的故事,？請上翻看英文咯） （本文經(jīng)作者授權(quán)發(fā)布于此,，如有轉(zhuǎn)載，請務(wù)必聯(lián)系作者或者版主?。?/span> 作者：悅吾涯 |
