In public speaking, the watch word is preparation. Most of us tend to put things off, at least occasionally. It’s so easy to put things off especially those things we do not look forward to doing. So if the speaking engagement is several weeks off, we may feel that we still have plenty of time. But as the day draws closer, we begin to panic. Don’t let this happen to you. Start preparing as soon as you’re given or accept the speaking assignment. You have much to do and to do it right will take time. How much better your speech will be and how much better you’ll feel if you have taken the time to do it right! When you are prepared, you have gathered the needed data, determined what is appropriate to the listener’s understanding and acceptance levels, organized the ideas so they flow logically, selected examples and other supports for your ideas and made them interesting to your listeners, developed a great opening that you know will capture the attention of even the daydreamers in your audiences, checked out the room where you’ll be speaking and requested any feasible changes you wish in the set-up of the room. If you are prepared, you are confident that you can best convey your message to your listeners. If you wait until a few days before your presentation to begin to prepare, or worse, yet, the day before, no doubt you’ll be anxious. And now there is not enough time to engage in more than a superficial attempt. Both you and the audience will feel uncomfortable, like retirement planning. It is never too early to start preparing for your presentation. So, start preparing right away.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What is the most important thing in public speaking?
27. What does the speaker advise us to do to capture the audiences’ attention?
28. How will you feel if you don’t start working for the presentation until the day before?

选项
A、Those interested in the power of persuasion.

C、Those planning to take up some public work.
D、Those eager to become effective speakers.

解析
预览选项可知,本题可能与短文的读者或听众有关。短文主要强调了演讲前做准备的重要性,故推断此文是讲给那些想成为成功演讲者的人听的,故答案为[D]。
