The most recent book, The Top 100, contains tips from the 100 best speakers of all time and tells us that Bill Clinton's secret weapon is to "inspire confidence" and Gandhi's was to "avoid ego". This may be true but is not terribly helpful. It is like watching a video of Rudolf Nureyev being the black swan and then expecting to be able to twirl round the living room in a similar fashion yourself.
最新的一本书《The Top 100》囊括了有史以来100位最出色演讲者提供的小窍门。这本书告诉我们,比尔 克林顿(Bill Clinton)的秘密武器是“鼓舞信心,而圣雄甘地(Gandhi)则是“避免自负。这可能不错,但并没有太大帮助。这就像观看鲁道夫 纽瑞耶夫(Rudolf Nureyev,已故苏联芭蕾舞大师—译者注)扮演黑天鹅的视频,然后就期望自己也能以同样的方式在客厅旋转一样。
I have only come across two bits of helpful advice. The first is practise, practise, practise. This is a bore because it takes a lot of time, but there is no way round it. The second is to junk all aids. PowerPoint is a crutch. It is an ugly thing in itself and must be thrown away if you want to walk smoothly. Equally, you must never read a speech. Write it, learn it and then leave it at home, speaking with minimal notes.
我只遇到过两条有用的建议。第一条是:练习!练习!练习!这很容易让人厌烦,因为它会占用大量时间,但你是毫无捷径可走的。第二条是丢掉所有的辅助用具。PowerPoint就是一根拐杖,本身就很令人讨厌。如果你想顺当地走路,就必须丢掉拐杖。同样,你决不能照稿读。自己动手写,背熟,把稿子留在家里,演讲时仅带尽可能少的提示。
