It's hard enough to prepare for a speech. When the technology won't cooperate, you have to be ready to go to Plan B.

准备演讲原本就已经很困难了。但万一出现技术故障，你还需制定一套备用方案。

I was at a conference recently and witnessed a technology meltdown. From microphones to projectors, nothing was cooperating. One presenter had to use two projectors--one for his presentation, the other for a Skype session with one of his customers--and neither was functioning. He did a good job of holding it together, but the timing ended up off by 45 minutes and one of the sessions had to be cut.

我在最近一次会议上就目睹了技术故障。从话筒到投影仪，没有一项设备能正常运行。有一位演讲者还需要用两台投影仪，一台用来演讲，一台用于和他的客户进行网络沟通环节，但两台投影仪都不能正常工作。这位演讲者很好地控制了住场面，但由于每人只有45分钟的时限，他不得不舍弃其中一个环节。

As frequent speakers and company evangelists, we often end up giving presentations in less than ideal situations. But you still have to go through with it. Here are five "rules for the road," so you're prepared in case things start to go awry.

作为经常做演讲、进行公司宣传的职员，我们总会发现实际演讲的条件没有我们想的那么好，但是你还得继续完成任务。下面5个“职场演讲规则”，学会这几个规则，你就能在处理突发情况时从容应对。
