10、ogical OrderChronological order:a method of speech organization in which the main points follow a time pattern.Narrate a series of events in the sequence in which they happened.For example:Specific Purpose:To inform my audiencehow the Great Wall of China was built.Central Idea:The Great Wall of Chin

14、tial OrderSpatial order:a method of speech organization in which the main points follow a directional pattern.The main points proceed from top to bottom,left to right,front to back,inside to outside,east to west,or some other route.For example:Specific purpose:To inform my audienceabout the structur

20、od of speech organization in which the main points divide the topic into logical and consistent subtopics.Suppose your topic is Leonardo da Vinci,who was born in the 1400s.Your specific purpose is“To inform my audience of the achievements of Leonardo da Vinci”.Chronologically:his achievements in eac

26、speech contains from 2-5 main points.Condense too many main points into categories.Take a speech about Yoga for example:Specific Purpose:To inform my audience about the practice of yoga.Central Idea:Yoga is an ancient practice that involves the whole body.Main Points:I.Yoga breathing starts with dee

28、road categories:yoga breathing and yoga postures.I.One part of practicing yoga involves proper breathing.II.The other part of yoga involves body postures.View an excerpt from“Yoga:Uniting Mind,Body and Spirit”.Keep Main Points SeparateEach main point in a speech should be clearly independent of the

29、others.Two sets of main points for a speech about the process of producing a Broadway play:Ineffective:I.The first step is choosing the play.II.The second step is selecting the cast.III.The third step is conducting rehearsals and then performing the play.More Effective:I.The first step is choosing t

32、e wording parallel.Easier to understand and remember.Balance the Amount of Time Devoted to Main PointsNot mean all main points must receive exactly equal emphasis.Should be roughly balanced.Either of the following is fine:I.30%.I.20%.II.40%.II.30%.III.30%.III.50%.Supporting MaterialsSupporting mater

33、ials:the materials used to support a speakers ideas.The three major kinds of supporting materials are examples,statistics,and testimony.Read the example in APS pages 96-97:The Growing Use of Acupuncture in Western Medicine.ConnectivesConnectives:a word or phrase that connects the ideas of a speech a

34、nd indicates the relationship between them.Four types of connectives:1.transitions 2.internal previews 3.internal summaries 4.signpostsTransitionsTransition:a word or phrase that indicates when a speaker has finished one thought and is moving on to another.State both the idea the speaker is leaving

35、and the idea he or she is coming up to.The following transitional phrases are underlined:Now that we have a clear understanding of the problem,let me share the solution with you.We have spoken so far of Guan Yus skill as a warrior,but above all it is his honor and righteousness that make him a mythi

36、c figure in Chinese history.Keeping these points in mind about sign language,lets return to the sentence I started with.Internal PreviewInternal preview:a statement in the body of the speech that lets the audience know what the speaker is going to discuss next.The preview statement in a speech intro

37、duction.For example:In discussing how China has beenstereotyped in the Western media,welllook first at the origins of the problemand second at its continuing impact today.The audience knows exactly what to listen for as the speaker develops the“problem”main point.Internal previews are often combined

38、 with transitions.For example:Transition:Now that we have seen how serious the problem of faulty credit reports is,lets look at some solutions.Internal Preview:I will focus on three solutionsinstituting tighter regulation of credit bureaus,holding credit bureaus financially responsible for their mis

39、takes,and giving individuals easier access to their credit reports.Internal SummariesInternal summary:a statement in the body of the speech that summarizes the speakers preceding point of points.Remind listeners what they have just heard.Used when a speaker finishes a complicated or particularly imp

40、ortant main point of set of main points.For example:In short,regular walking at a brisk pace strengthens the heart,increases lung capacity,improves blood circulation,and burns caloriesall without the strain on the knees and ankles caused by running.Clarify and reinforce ideas.Combined with transitio

41、ns,lead listeners into your next main points.For example:Internal Summary:Lets sum up what we have discussed so far.First,we have seen that Li Shizhens classic work Bencao Gangmu divides the substancesfrom minerals into four categories.Second,we have seen that it divides thesubstances from animals i

42、nto six categories.Transition:Now let us see how it dividesthe substances from plants.SignpostsSignpost:a very brief statement that indicates where a speaker is in the speech or that focuses attention on key ideas.Frequently theyre just numbers,numerical signposts.For example:The first cause of this

43、 problem isinefficient agricultural problem.The second cause is recurrent drought inthe affected countries.The third cause is mismanagement ofavailable food resources by local leaders.Questions are particularly effective as signposts because they invite subliminal（潜意识的）answers and thereby get the au

44、dience more involved with the speech.Take the topic of“Internet Fraud”for example,the first main point explored the problem of Internet fraud:So just how serious is the problem ofinternet fraud?Is it a few isolated cases,or is it widespread enough to requireserious measures to protect consumers?The

45、second main point dealt with ways to curb Internet fraud:So how can we solve this problem?Isthere is a way to protect the rights oflegitimate businesses while attacking thefraudulent ones?Use signposts to focus attention on key ideas with the help of a simple phrase:The most important thing to rememberabout abstract art is that it is alwaysbased on forms in the natural world.Similar phrases:Be sure to keep this in mindAbove all,you need to know The End
