演讲稿,是同学们在高中英语学习中会遇到的作文题目,比起其它应用文的写作来,写演讲稿似乎要难一些,原因在于演讲稿的信息容量比较大,写作步骤不像其它应用文那么统一,是自成体系的。今天,小简老师和大家分享的是演讲稿的十大经典句型和一篇优秀范文,写作步骤在文章最后。
【经典句型一】最常用的演讲开场句型
I am honored to... 我很荣幸……
【短评】这是演讲的第一大王牌句型,几乎每一场演讲都要以这个句型作为开场白。有人提出,这个句型已经到了陈词滥调(cliche)的地步。但是,谦虚永远是一种美德,这个句型之所以能被古今中外无数演讲大师所采用,当然有其吸引人的地方。
I am honored to have a chance to speak to you today.
我今天很荣幸跟大家讲几句。
I am honored to be here on such a special occasion.
我很荣幸在这个特别的时刻来到这里。
I am honored to introduce the founder of Crazy English,Mr.Li Yang.
我很荣幸地为大家介绍疯狂英语创始人—李阳先生。
这个句型也可以说成“It’s my (great) honor to...”
【经典句型二】最具感情色彩的演讲句型
Words can’t express... 言语表达不了……
Words can’t express how lucky I am.
简直不能用言语来表达我有多幸运。
Words can’t express how thankful I am.
言语表达不了我的感激之情。
【经典句型三】最平实的演讲过度句型
Today I want to talk to you about... 今天我想跟你们谈谈……
(演讲都有个主题,如何在演讲中介绍自己的主题呢?这个句型是最常用的。)
Today I want to talk to you about a very important subject.
今天我将和你们谈一个非常重要的话题。
Today I want to talk to you about the future of business in China.
今天我将和你们谈一谈中国的商业前景问题。
【经典句型四】最具表达力的演讲句型
I sincerely hope... 我衷心希望……
I sincerely hope that you will take a minute to think about the future.
我们真心希望你能花一点时间考虑一下未来。
I sincerely hope that you will have a wonderful time tonight.
我们衷心希望你们今晚过得开心。
【经典句型五】最具领导风格的演讲句型
I ask all of you present to... 我要求在座各位……
I ask all of you present to join me in raising your glasses to our everlasting friendship.
我要求在座的各位与我一起举杯,为我们的友谊长青干杯。
I ask all of you present to join hands in the battle against corruption.
我要求在座各位携起手来反腐败。
【经典句型六】最具感染力的演讲句型

I know I speak for the president and all the employees.
我知道我是代表着经理和所有的员工在说话。
I know I speak for several people in this room when I say that we are thankful for the improvements in the company.
当我说我们为公司状况改善感到欣慰时,我知道这是代表你们当中几个人所说的。
【经典句型七】最具煽动性的演讲句型
I want to remind... 我想提醒……
I want to remind you that it’s never too late to learn.
我想提醒你们,无论何时开始学习都不迟。
I want to remind you all that we share the responsibility.
我想提醒大家,我们都得承担责任。
【经典句型八】最常用的演讲结束句型
I wish you the best of luck in... 我祝你……好运
(这个句型不但演讲中常用,很多场合也能用得上,比如信函的结尾等。)
I wish you the best of luck in your new business venture.
祝你们新公司生意兴隆。
I wish you the best of luck in everything you do.
祝你们一切顺利。
【经典句型九】最具修辞色彩的演讲句型
Ask not what...can do for you, ask what you can do for...
不要问……能为你做什么,问问你能为……做什么
【短评】肯尼迪总统的那句“Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.”成了千古绝唱,为世人广为传颂。我们可以将他这个句子中的鱼骨抽出来,造出不少同样铿锵有力,同样震撼人心的句子。
Ask not what China can do for you, ask what you can do for China.
不要问中国能为你做什么,问问你能为中国做什么。
Ask not what society can do for you, ask what you can do for society.
不要问社会能为你做什么,问问你能为社会做什么。
Ask not what others can do for you, ask what you can do for others.
不要问别人能为你做什么,问问你能为别人做什么。
【经典句型十】最具震撼力的演讲句型
... means a great deal to... 对……意义重大。

这项目对我们公司来说意义重大。
Our company’s success means a great deal to China.
我们公司的成功对中国来说意义重大。
以上是我们从几百篇演讲辞中总结出来的经典演讲句型之最,几乎适用于每一篇演讲。如果你要写一篇演讲稿,千万别忘了用这些句型来做包装材料,它们必定会让你的演讲熠熠生辉,光芒四射!
这里我们为大家准备了一篇由一名环保协会会长发表的演讲,我们意外地发现,这篇演讲竟运用了以上十大演讲句型中的九个。正如大家看到的,这篇演讲十分精彩,十分有力量,只要读一读,你就会与演讲者产生强烈共鸣,为之扼腕长叹,为之心潮澎湃,更不用说到现场听了!
Ladies and Gentlemen:
女士们,先生们:
[1] Good morning! It’s my great honor to be elected as the chairman of the Green Earth Society. Words can not express how much I appreciate this honor. Thank you all for your support and for your confidence in me. As I take this position, I’ll do my best, together with all our volunteer members of this organization, to promote environmental protection locally and globally, and to make more and more people become eco-conscious.
[1] 早上好!获选绿色地球协会的主席,我感到非常荣幸。言语表达不了我对此荣誉的万分感激。非常感谢大家的支持和信任。在我就职之后,我会尽自己的最大努力,与本组织的所有志愿者会员一起,促进地区和全球范围内的环境保护,并使越来越多的人树立环保意识。
[2] “Why should I be eco-conscious?” you ask. There is a very simple reason: We live on one earth, and this is the only place we can live right now. We can't live in space, we don't have the food growing capacity out there yet for lots of people to survive. If we treat the earth like the city dump it becomes dirty and unlivable. If we treat it well by being eco-conscious, the earth stays a clean place, perfect for living, for ourselves and for our children.
[2] 你们可能会问,“我们为什么要有环保意识?”原因很简单:我们生活地球上,而且这是目前我们唯一可以居住的地方。我们无法去太空生活,我们无法在那里生产足够的食品供很多人生存。如果我们把地球当作城市垃圾堆一样对待,地球会变得肮脏不堪,无法生存。如果我们个个都有环保意识,好好地对待地球,那么地球会保持干净,非常适合生活,不仅适合我们,也适合我们的子孙。
[3] We are now living in a highly industrialized world. The expanding industries are providing us with more and more convenience and comfort. But I want to remind you that, owing to overdeveloping of natural resources, our earth is facing a disaster. Our air is being poisoned everyday by car fumes, our oceans are being polluted with toxic wastes, and our beautiful rainforests are being destroyed.
[3] 我们生活在一个高度工业化的世界。不断膨胀的工业给我们提供了很多方便和舒适。但我想提醒大家,由于自然资源的过度开发,我们的地球正面临一场灾难。我们的空气每天都受到汽车燃气的毒化,我们的海洋遭到有毒废物的污染,而我们美丽的热带雨林也遭到破坏。
[4] We all moan and groan about the loss of the quality of life through the destruction of our ecology, and yet each one of us, in our own little comfortable ways, contributes daily to that destruction. It's time now to awaken in each one of us the respect and attention our beloved mother deserves.
[4] 我们都抱怨由于生态破坏造成的生活质量下降,然而,我们每个人,由于贪图自己的一点点舒适,每天都在加剧这种破坏。现在是我们每个人都要唤醒心中对地球的尊敬与关注的时候了,这是我们深爱的母亲所应受的。
[5] So, I ask all of you present to join hands in finding ways to make the earth a better place to live. Let’s work hard to improve our society. Ask not what our society can do for you, ask what you can do for our society.
[5] 因此,我要求在座各位携起手来,想尽办法使我们的地球变成一个更适合生活的地方。让我们一起努力来改善我们这个社会。不要问社会能为你做什么,而要问你能为社会做什么。
[6] I sincerely hope that, with our joint effort, we will start our days differently –– we wake up in the morning with the sun shining, trees bursting with strength, and flowers smiling at us. And when I say this, I know I speak for every human resident on this planet.
[6] 我衷心希望,通过我们的共同努力,我们的生活将会大变样——早上起来,阳光明媚,树木葱葱,生机勃勃,花儿朝我们微笑。我知道,我这么说是代表这个地球上每一个人的心声。
[7] Thank you for your support and effort. Your contribution means a great deal not only to this organization, but also to the whole world.
[7] 感谢你们的支持与努力。你们的贡献意义重大,不仅是对于这个协会,而且对于整个世界。
[8] Finally, I wish you the best luck in everything you do!
[8] 最后,我衷心祝愿各位万事如意!
分享完经典句型和非常棒的优秀范文,小简老师又要老生常谈了,明确作文的写作步骤有助于梳理写作思路,使文章结构清晰。思路和结构清晰了,语句才会流畅。一起来看看演讲稿的写作步骤是怎样的吧!
第一步:对听众的称呼语
最常用的是 Ladies and gentlemen,也可根据不同情况,选用 Fellow students, Distinguished guests, Mr Chairman, Honorable Judges(评委)等等。
第二步:提出论题
由于演讲的时间限制,必须开门见山,提出论题。提出论题的方法有各种各样,但最生动,最能引起注意的是用举例法。比如:你要呼吁大家关心贫穷地区的孩子,你可以用亲眼看到的或者收集到的那些贫穷孩子多么需要帮助的实例开始。另外,用具体的统计数据也是一个有效的引出论题的方法,比如:你要谈遵守交通规则的话题,你可以从举一系列有关车辆、车祸等的数据开始。
第三步:论证
对提出的论题,不可主观地妄下结论,而要进行客观的论证。这是演讲中最需要下功夫的部分。关键是要把道理讲清楚。常见的论证方法有举例法、因果法、对比法等等,可参见英语议论文的有关章节。
第四步:结论
结论要简明扼要,以给听众留下深刻印象。
第五步:结尾
结尾要简洁,不要拉拉扯扯,说个没完。特别是不要受汉语影响,说些类似“准备不足,请谅解”,“请批评指正”这样的废话。最普通的结尾就是:Thank you very much for your attention.
