informative speech px 演讲稿

WHAT IS AN INFORMATIVE SPEECHInformative speaking is all around us. Any speech is an informative speech if it present information to an audience. A report, a teacher‟s explanation, and a talk at asgroupsmeeting are all examples of informative speeches.When do we make informative speeches? We make them all the time. Whenever we give a stranger direction, explain a problem to a mechanic, or describe an illness to a doctor, we are speaking to inform.The goal in giving an informative speech is to state ideas simply, clearly, and interestingly. If you achieve this goal, the audience will understand and remember your speech. In this chapter, you will learn how to build an informative speech.PREPARING THE INTRODUCTION, BODY AND CONCLUSION Step 1: Prepare an Attention-Getting OpenerAt the beginning of your speech, it is very important to grab your audience‟s attention and make them interested in what you have to say. Four different ways to prepare an interesting, attention-getting introduction follow:(1)Ask your audience a series of rhetorical questions.Rhetorical questions are asked for dramatic effect with no answers expected. Your listeners will immediately be interested in knowing the answers. The following rhetorical questions were used to open a speech about the process of getting a tattoo:What can cost ten dollars or a thousand dollars?What can be every color of the rainbow?What can be with you as long as you live?What can you wear on your arm, your cheek, your leg, or even your back?(2)Tell a story.People love to listen to a story. They want to find out what it is about. This story was used to open a speech about the Gold Museum in Bogotá, Colombia:A guard took mesintosa square room with no lights. The room was so black I couldn‟t even see my own feet. All of a sudden a hidden electric wall closed behind me. There was no way out. I thought I was in a tomb. All at once bright lights came on. I was surrounded by gold on all four sides!(3)State a surprising fact.The statement below was used to introduce a speech about the billion-dollar business of services, or products to get almost anything you want without cash:You can get almost anything you want without cash! And you can begin today!(4) State a well-known quotation.This quotation from William Shakespeare‟s Hamlet was used to open a speech about the disadvantages of borrowing:Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend.Step 2: Prepare the BodyThen prepare the body of your speech. Arrange the points of your speech in a clear, logical manner. That way, your audience can follow you, understand your information, and remember what you have said. Insgroupsto do this, it is important to choose an organizational pattern that fits your topic.Read about the eight organizational patterns below. Then, choose the best one for your particular topic.(1)Past- Present-Future. Use this pattern to discuss how something once was, how it has changed, and how it will be in the future. For example, in discussing the Olympics, you might organize your information under the following three headings:Ⅰ.The history of the OlympicsⅡ.The Olympics todayⅢ.The future of the Olympics(2)Time. Use this pattern to describe how processes, personal experiences, events, or activities happen by the hour, part of the day, week, month, or year. It can also be used to explain the steps in a process. For example, in speaking about making a speech, you might organize your information under the following headings:Ⅰ.Choosing a topicⅡ.Gathering informationⅢ.Making an outlineⅣ.Presenting the speech(3)e this pattern to speak about a specific problem and ways to solve it. (Note: A problem isn‟t always a negative situation, such as crime or child abuse. It can also be a positive situation, such as choosing a career or about the problem of choosing.) For example, in speaking about the problem of choosing the college that s right for you, you might present the following solutions:Ⅰ.Read the different college catalogs.Ⅱ.Visit campuses of different colleges.Ⅲ.Talk to people who attend various colleges.Ⅳ.Talk to teachers at the colleges you are considering.(4)e this pattern to divide a topicsintosdifferent geographicalthe following sequence:Ⅰ.Marriage customs in JapanⅡ.Marriage customs in Saudi ArabiaⅢ.Marriage customs in the United States(5)e this pattern to describe a particular situation and its effect. For example, in speaking about the effects of cigarette smoking, you might discuss:Ⅰ.The effects of smoking on pregnant womenⅡ.The effect of secondhand smokeⅢ.The effects of smoking on people with allergies(6)Effect-Cause. Use this pattern do describe a particular situation and its causes. For example, in speaking about reasons for drug addiction, you might discuss: Ⅰ.The easy availability of drugsⅡ.The need to escape from the pressures of workⅢ.The lack of education about harmful effects of drugs(7) Related Subtopics. Use this pattern to divide one topicsintosdifferent parts, or subtopics. For example, in speaking about false advertising, you might discuss: Ⅰ.False advertising on televisionⅡ.False advertising in magazinesⅢ.False advertising on the radio(8)Advantage-Disadvantage. Use this pattern to talk about both positive and negative death penalty, you might discuss:Ⅰ.Advantages of capital punishmentⅡ.Disadvantages of capital punishmentStep 3: Prepare a SummaryEvery speech needs a summary of the information presented. The best way to summarize your information is to remind your audience of what you said by repeating the main points covered in the body of your speech.Example 1Well, I‟ve given you some ve ry important information today. You now know:A. How to prepare if a hurricane is comingB. What safety measures to make during the stormC. What to do after the hurricane is overExample 2As you can see, the Olympic Games are very important to people all over the world. I hope you learned some interesting information about:A. The history of the OlympicsB. The Olympics todayC. The future of the Olympic GamesStep 4: Prepare Memorable Concluding RemarksEvery speech needs an ending that leaves the audience thinking about and remembering what was said. Like attention-getting openers, memorable concluding remarks can take the form of rhetorical questions, stories, surprising facts, or quotations. Of these suggestions, quotations are popular among many famous public speakers.Example 1President John F. Kennedy ended many of his speeches with this quotation from the poet Robert Browning:“Some men see things as they are, and ask,…Why‟? I dare to dream of things that never were, and ask,…Why‟not?”Example 2Civil-rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. ended his famous“I Have a Dream”speech with words from an old spiritual song:“Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last.”Say your memorable concluding remarks slowly and clearly, maintaining eye contact with your audience. Be as dramatic and confident as possible!OUTLINING AN INFORMATIVE SPEECHThe outline that follows shows how one student outlined an informative speech.

Informative SpeechHello everyone, my name is Kitness. I feel very glad to make a speech here. Today I want to talk about something almost all children and girls love – Ice cream.Owing to our special love of ice cream, some critical voice has been aroused, among which the saying “Eating ice cream will make us fat” is the most widely-believed one. Is ice cream equal to fatness? Let us all find out the answer!As shown on the screen, there is a great variety of ice cream with similarities and differences. So, to get the right answer, we should first have a good knowledge of the classification and ingredients of it.There are 4 main kinds of ice cream according to the material. The first one is vanilla ice cream. Vanilla is a flavor derived from orchids, which attributes to the most common taste of the ice cream. The second one is fruit ice cream. Most of the ice cream cakes belong to this class. The third one is nut ice cream, which may seems not very popular in China but still tastes good. The last one is pudding ice cream, very rarely being seen in supermarket.After the introduction of the different materials, here comes to the ingredients which are sharing by all ice creams. The five ingredients are water, milk, cream, sweetener including sugar and rock candy and additives which people don’t know their aspects and compositions.Each ingredient has a regular proportion. Water accounts for 55 to 64 percent of the whole ice cream, while milkfat accounts for 10 to 16 percent, solids-not-fat 9 to 12 percent, stabilisers and emulsifiers 0.2 to 0.5 percent, and sweetener 12 to 16 percent.Now we all know what make up the ice cream. Let us find out what leads people to have a bad attitude towards ice cream and speak ill of it. They stated 2 objective reasons, saying that the high fat, high sugar usually account for the fatness. These reasons are objective reasons, which not refer to an exact group of people, nor to a particular person. Then they put forward 2 subjective reasons - the lack of exercise, the lack of discipline which mean eating too much at once or can’t resist the temptation of ice cream, additionally raise the risk of getting fat. If we do not have enough exercise, the fat brought by the ice cream will not all be consumed and be stored somewhere.Of course, ice cream contains pretty high fat and sugar, but is that totally equal to fatness. The answer is not. If we use some solutions to deal with those annoying factors, both the delicious taste and the slim stature are easily to get.Firstly, control the amount and frequency. Less than twice a week is OK. Secondly, select ice cream containing low-fat milk. Thirdly, eat ice cream at the right time. Do not eat ice cream or other high-fat food before you go to sleep. A cup of ice cream after lunch or supper is perfect. At last, DIY your own ice cream with less fat, which means you can both enjoy the pleasure of DIY and delicacy.Just eat the ice cream! Thank you.。

英语演讲i n f o r m a t i v es p e e c h(总2页)--本页仅作为文档封面，使用时请直接删除即可----内页可以根据需求调整合适字体及大小--Food or PoisonGood morning everyone, before my speech, I want to ask one question, do you like eating food Of course, I know your answers are affirmative. I just want y ou know that we enjoy food not just need it. And food is gift in our life. But nowadays, many profiteers make the gift become poison. In China ther e is an old saying: Bread is the staff of life. The Chinese meaning is 民以食为天。

Obviously, it means food plays a decisive role in our daily life. Food safe ty is a matter of primary importance. The issue is closely related to ordinary people’s health. But we all know that food safety is a serious problem in chin a, the matter exists everywhere. The unhealthy food harms our health every day. For example, in the morning, you buy steamed buns with meat for breakfast, and likely, the meat is from rat; and you may eat the dishes made by drainage oil at lunch; and when you thirsty you buy drinking, it may have insecticides. And most customers mostly agree "out of sight, out of mind" view. Many consumers li sten to media advertising and find out that problem, they knew that they again become victims. The unhealthy food seriously harm our body, it can cause differ ent kinds of diseases, from a headache to cancer. Some unhealthy foods, contain ing various additives, give a tremendous threat to us. Some unhealthy food will make us ill, such as diarrhea、stomachache and other disease of digestive trac t. Some food additives use chemical materials to make food looks better, but it will carcinogenic in a long time. The body is our own, some poison is a lifeti me all away, or even affect the next generation.Why does this problem arise in China Firstly, the origin of food has been polluted. Particularly in the agriculture: the immense of vehicle harmful emiss ions penetrate through the soil. Because of the pollution, the quality of rice, grains, crops, livestock and other agricultural products is affected. Secon dly, some problems were happened in the processing. For example, most enterpris es didn’t follow the standard to produce the goods. And they use food additive excessively. Thirdly, this is the loss of morality. There are too many trader s just know making profit .They have lost of moral bottom line and ignore the public's safety and health. We Chinese care money too much. Some of us had lo st ourselves in the money. Fourth, there are inadequate regulations and standa rds. Chinese laws and regulations are not perfect. Some standards are not c omprehensive and regulations are not in place. The force of law is not enoug h, the penalties for illegal workers is low.I believe that government is the dominant role to change the situation. Ty ing their record on food safety to their evaluations will be an effective way t o motivate officials to supervise the food industry. Besides, enterprises that violate food safety laws should be punished more severely. A higher cost will b e a deterrent. Innovation of the supervision system is also called for. To im prove analysis of the food industry, a new job of professional food safety surv eyor should be developed in China. These professionals could then assist gover nments and ensure they have the latest information about food safety violations. The government should also pay more attention to raising awareness among resi dents about food safety, and the harm banned food additives can do, as well as the basic means of telling whether food is safe or not.Let the good faith come back in our hearts, and let the world fill with lov e. I hope we will eat the security food in the near future.。

Informative Speech (Manuscript)Hello, my dear audience. Today, it’s my great honor to deliver the informative speech of which the topic is pimples.Let me think. A couple of days ago, on November 22, I saw two pieces of news about negative effects on adolescents, which were startling to me. The first news was about the worries of a painful mother whose daughter suffered from pimples a lot and became self-contemptuous. The girl’s been unwilling to talk with others since pimple appeared. Another piece of news described that an 18-year-old boy was getting pessimistic, or even had to drop out from school even though he is better now after taking some operation. So from these two pieces of news, we can see that with the improvement of living standards, the reasons of inducing pimples are still growing. And the growth of pimples has been a serious problem among young people both in physical and in mental. Therefore, it is very necessary to talk about it and to emphasize the importance of having good habits.During my speech, firstly I am going to introduce some basic knowledge of pimples briefly. Secondly, I’ll talk about some typical reasons which can cause pimples. Then finally I plan to share several precautionary measures with you that you can benefit from or to avoid the annoyance.Now, let’s see what are pimple and the present situation.A pimple is a kind of acne, and one of the many results of excess oil getting trapped in the pores. Like the pictures shown on the screen. There is a survey made by Beijing Chinese Medicine Hospital indicating that people aged 14 to 25 tend to develop pimples. If you are over 25, the occurrence of acne will significantly reduce. And most of patients are female, enduring a long-term agony.But it is not enough to know the case. The more important thing we should know is that why it happens under such uncertain conditions.I am going to point out or disclose some indubitable reasons to this problem to draw your attention.According to the research, there are four major reasons leading to pimples. The first one is gene. The tendency to develop acne runs in families. A family history of acne is associated with an earlier occurrence of acne and an increased number of retention acne lesions. The second one is psychology or pressure. While the connection between pimpleand stress has been debated, scientific research indicates tha t “increased acne severity” is “significantly associated with increased stress levels.”The next one is diet. A high glycemic load diet is associated with worsening acne. There is also an association between the consumption of milk and the rate and severity of acne. And the last one results from bad habits, such as washing face frequently, suffering prolonged fatigue and touching face with hands which are full of bacteria.However, as we all know, a large number of treatment methods have been developed by doctors and experts, while in our daily life many details should be paid much attention, too. You know, some good habits to some extent can help you avoid pimples besides the medical therapy.Some tips for you: Pay attention to personal hygiene; Eat vegetables and fruits with enough vitamins; Guarantee enough sleeping span, or you can come to me to have a try——this kind of ointment.Given that pimple has been causing a lot of problems to our adolescents, I strongly suggest that you remember all tips I have discussed above.From the two stories I told you at the very beginning, I hope our young people are always able to pay more attention to our health, form good habits and keep a positive mood so that beauty will be with us forever.Thank you!。
