命运号角

②

Method 2 is the best overall choice much of the time, scoring well on all three criteria. It’s not that hard to prep for, you sound like a human, and it isn’t that stressful because with nothing to memorize, there’s nothing to forget, so if you know your material well and you’re feeling confident, things will go fine. The worst case scenario is that you lose your confidence during the talk and flounder through it. That’s a bad outcome, but it’s not a disaster. But Method 2 does require you to be calm and collected, so if you’re really scared of public speaking, it’s probably not the way to go. It also leaves you open to variability—depending on how the words come out, you might deliver a better or worse talk—so if the stakes are

super

high, it’s not a great option unless you’re a seasoned pro.

③

Method 3A—reading off a script—is a pretty bad option, with one huge plus: It’s the least scary by far. For people who are

terrified

of public speaking, they may just want to cling to Method 3A’s leg and call it a day. But the safety comes at a high cost, in that you’re leaving yourself with almost no chance of delivering a great talk and a high chance of having the audience tune out. It should be noted that in certain high-gravitas situations, when it’s more of an official

speech

than a talk, the clearly-recited tone of a read speech can be appropriate, and even desired—like a graduation speech. In other cases, someone can be skilled enough at reading a script that they can do so in a human-seeming way. Obama is a good example—you often forget that he’s reading from a teleprompter most of the time you see him talk. But very few of us find ourselves involved with graduation speeches or teleprompters.

④Method 3B—being memorized but just barely—is the worst of all worlds and should never happen. Never ever. If you’re at 3A and you decide to venture into memorization land and ditch the paper, you better be prepared to put in the time to get all the way to 3C, because here’s the deal:

②所有选择中模式2（分条）是三条标准中最好的。用这个模式你不需要充分准备，可以像平时谈话那样演讲，需要记的东西也不多，只要你准备好材料，表达得自信点，一切都会讲好的。没自信然后乱说一通是很差的结果但不是灾难性的。模式2要求演讲者冷静镇定，你要是真的很害怕公共演讲，不选模式2比较好。这个模式也要求演讲者保持可变性——它取决于讲出的话，影响演讲的好坏。要是题目很难讲，而且你不是职业老手，最好不要选这个。

③3A（读稿）是最差的，但又是最安心的选择。很怕公共演讲的都喜欢选3A。低风险低回报的3A让演讲者很难讲好，而且观众也不愿意听。在一些严肃的官方场合，这种朗诵的腔调是必须的，比如毕业演讲。在其他情况下3A演讲还表现的自在是很欠揍的。比如奥巴马，看他的演讲你会经常忘记他在看着讲词提示装置读。但是毕业演讲和讲词提示装置都很少见。

④3B（背）是从古至今世界上最应该消失的东西。如果3A的你想冒险做3B，真的不如把这部分时间给3C，因为：
