II. Introducing
the Subject and the outline of the Presentation引入话题 Background
Information
I would like to start
by briefly reviewing the history of open heart surgery.
Let us start with the theoretical basis of this new technique.
To begin with, we have to consider the principle.
I think it would be best to start out by looking at a few
slides.
I should like to preface my
remarks with a de script ion of the basic idea.
May I begin with a general outline of this project?
The first thing I would like to talk about is the definition of
the terms I shall use in my lecture.
The first
point I'd like to make is the historical background of the invention.
First, I shall explain to you why this new program is correct
and feasible.
Topic
I would like to concentrate on theproblem Of antibiotic abuse
in hospitals.
I shall devote my talk to the
surgical treatment of coronary disease.
I want to
confine my talk to the latest developments in civil engineering.
Today, I am going to give a talk on the application of computers
in medicine.
My topic today will deal with the
observation of supernova.
In today's talk, I' 11 restrict
myself to the etiology of 15-epa~i;s.
In my
presentation this morning, I' 11 limit myself to three major points
only.
I take the liberty of restricting
my discussion mainly to highway bridge construction.
Now, I would like to address myself to the most important aspect
of this problem.
Among the many languages, I shall
mention only BASIC.
What I am going to present today
is the methodology and the data analysis.
I'm not
going to say much about that except to discuss the literature on that
topic.
Outlining
My talk today consists of two parts. One is... and the other
is...
I've divided my presentation into
four parts.
I shall first talk about ... and
then touch on... and finally discuss ...
The subject
can be looked at under the following headings: ... (Pointing to the

Comprehensive Samples
Sample 1
Thank you, Mr. Chairperson, Mr.
Director-General, distinguished members of the ILO's Governing Body and
friends. I welcome this opportunity to be here today, with an
Organization which in many ways belongs to all of us workers. I can
think of, in fact, no other international body that one can claim as
one's own so unambiguously.
I have also had a
longstanding formal association with the ILO. Many of my early pieces on
women and technological change and on land rights were published by the
ILO, as well as was the work of many other scholars. It is therefore a
pleasure for me to be here on this important Symposium.
The canvas of the Symposium is very large. I will focus on two
aspects of gender inequality that centrally effect millions of women as
workers but perhaps have failed to receive the attention they deserve.
First, the gender gap in command over property and Productive assets
and, second, gender biased social perceptions and social norms.
Sample 2
I learned last May that you have
to be careful in speaking to a group of professional communicators.
After I conducted a writer' s workshop at the Toronto Conference of the
International Association of Business Communicators, Janine Lichaczwrote
asked me to speak here tonight and used the communication techniques I
had recommended. She even included a footnote citing my lecture. I am
susceptible to good communication and to flattery so I am pleased to be
with you to discuss your topic for the evening, the use of language in
the art of speech writing.
I suppose we must begin by
shaking our heads, woefully, over the sad state of language today,
whether in formal speeches, casual conversation, or in writing. Most of
us in this room no doubt agree with the generally negative tone of Time
Magazine's year-end assessment which claims “our language has been
besieged by vulgarities”. But to preserve our sanity as professionals in
communication of us would probably join Time in optimistically
expecting English somehow to survive and even to prosper.
Expressions
on Other Occasions
Correcting the
Title of the Presentation
First of all, I would like to
mention that the title of my presentation should be ...
Please allow me to correct a mistake in the title of my speech
which appeared in the program. Instead of... it should read...
Reading. Another Person's Paper
Sometimes you
are selected to read another person's paper, as he or she is absent.
I shall read a paper by Dr. Li from Guangzhou, china, who
regrets that he could not be here. The title of his paper is...
I'm going to read the paper by Dr. Wang. It's a great pity that,
because of a health problem, he could not be here.
I was asked by the author to read his paper. He apologizes for
not being able to come here.
The next speaker, Prof.
Zhang, regrets that she could not be here and has submitted her paper to
me. I am not sure if I can present it as well as she expected.
I am not sure whether I' 11 be able to be very confident in
answering specific questions. However, I am somewhat familiar with his
work, so I' 11 try my best.
Checking the Microphone
First I want to check if all of you can hear me clearly.
Am I speaking clearly and loudly enough for those in the rear of
the room?
I wonder if those in the rear of
the room can hear me.
If those in the rear of the room
can hear me, would someone please raise his hand?
Can you hear me clearly?
Can you hear me if
I am away from the microphone?
Is the microphone
working?
* Summary-How to Prepare a Good
Introduction
Realize file great importance of
the introduction of file presentation mad then do your best in
delivering it.
Don' t make file introduction
either too wordy, or too brief. Usually, it covers 10 to 15 percent of
your entire speech.
Select tile ways to capture the
audience attention.
Indicate tile topic.
Outline your Speech.
Announce your purpose.
Prepare several versions of tile introduction, compare them, and
then select the best version. Finally, learn it by heart so as to be
able to deliver it easily mid fluently.
Don't start
your speech with apologies.
Pay attention to your body
language.
Chapter II Developing the Speech Text I. Announcing the
Beginning of the Speech Text
To begin with, I
would like to talk about a principle.
I think it
would be best to start out by looking at some pictures.
The first thing I would like to talk about is the definition of
the terms which I’11 use in my presentation.
II. Shifting to the Next Main Point
Well, let's move on to the next point.
We will now come to the second problem.
Turning to the next question, I' 11 talk about the stages of the
procedure.
As the second topic, I shall stop
here. Now let' s turn our attention to the third topic.
So much for the methodology of our experiment. I would now like
to shift to the discussion of the results.
Now, let's
move away from the first part and switch over to the next part of my
presentation.
That's all for the introduction
and now we can go on to the literature review.
Next, I would like to turn to a more difficult problem.
The next point I'd like to talk about is the feasibility of this
project.
That brings me to my second point.
I am glad that we can now leave this rather boring subject of
mathematic deduction and go into a more attractive one, that is the
application of the formula.
III. Resuming the
Topic
Let' s come back to what I said in
the first part of my speech.
Getting back to the
subject of the problem of theoretical considerations we can find that...
I want to return to the first part of my presentation.
Now, to get back to the effect of temperature, you may be aware
that the problems have been solved.
This brings me
back to the question of security.
At this point I
would like to refer again to the question of methods in the first part
of my lecture.
Referring again to the first
question, I think...
Referring to the Coming Point
I'll deal with it later.
I' 11 touch upon
that point in a moment.
I shall tell you in detail
shortly.
IV. Introducing the Supporting
Materials
I think this part is the most
difficult, so I'll explain it in greater detail.
I think this part of my paper is most important, so I plan to
spend more time on it.
Please allow me to deal with this
matter more extensively.
Being the most important part of
my presentation, I will elaborate on it with more slides.
I' 11 expand this topic with drawings and figures.
Indicating the Points Briefly
Limited by the
time available, I can only give you a very brief account of this
matter.
I don't think that I should
describe the methods in detail, because they are included in the
handout.
I will not go into detail on it.
This point has been talked about repeatedly in this symposium,
so I am not going to spend too much time on it.
Let's go through the following points very rapidly.
I just want to outline for you what I experienced in using this
new drug.
I shall not go over all these
explanations. My time is running short. So I'’11 be brief.
It is sufficient to say that these experiments were poorly
designed and without controls.
V. Repairing a
Slip of Tone
The first of such experiments
began in 2000, rather than 1999.
May I have the
lights, I mean the slides.
The temperature increased, I
shall say decreased.
The population is 13 million,
sorry, 31 million.
The exchange rate dropped from 2.5
to 1.8, I beg your pardon, 1.9.
As you can see
from the first row, excuse me, the second row, that the output increased
two fold.
VI. Expressions Concerning Audio-Visual
Aids
Could we have the lights off? And
the first slide, please.
Lights off, first slide, please.
Dim the lights, and first slide, please.
The slide is not so clear. Please darken the room a little more.
Could you please turn on the lights, please?
Now, we can have the lights on.
Please switch
on the lights.
Lights on, please.
I apologize that this slide is not so clear, but I hope you can
still make out the general idea.
Sorry for the
small print.
I'm sorry we left a figure out
here.
VI. Explaining the Contents on the
Slides

On this slide, you can see...
This curve in
this slide shows...

Indicating the Sources of the

Dr. Li.

Prof. Wang with some modification
VII. Demanding to
Show the Next Slide
May I proceed to the next slide,
please?
I think we can move on to the next
slide.
Let me show you the next slide.
Now, we can go on to the next slide. '
Next slide, please.
Next, please.
