○  英语演讲:如何做好演讲比赛的准备  ○

good evening everyone!
 
i am here to give you some hints and suggestions on how to deliver a good speech, and how to win in this competition. though i know the professors seated down here especially my professor, my coach, ms. li yanshu are the right ones to tell you. therefore, i am here offering my fair share of speech competition experience as a participant of last year's  final.
 
instead of going down into a detailed dos and don'ts, i need to, first and foremost share with you my understanding of this competition: "21st century lenovo cup english speech competition" has always been regarded as the most privileged and challenging english speech competition in the academtic field nation wide. one of you, among the 15 contestants, is going to present yourself along with other top speakers around china, even some parts of asia. wow, just imagine how many eyes will be on you; the media coverage; the applause after your speech and the honor the competition will bring you...
if all that i have described above are the very reasons why you are here today, allow me to tell you: please stop right here. don't go any furthur. because i guarantee you, in the very end, you will be disapponited: no matter what kind of glory you recieve, no matter if you have won the first place or not. because it is transitory. year after year, the face of the first place, or the top ten will fade. by then you may ask yourself this question: "what can i get from it?" the answer i found through my own experience are:
1 the courage to present the best of you and the true colors of you in the public.
2 the friendship and communication between you and other people you will meet during the competition days.
3 the potential opportunities for your future.
 
as for the first point, i suggest you to read more: newspapers, news magazines and of course, your speech. do enough exercises with your coach and always always ask what other people thin
