1. Stuttered or repeated words and fillers
磕磕巴巴或无谓重复一些词语
"Like," "um," "er" and others are used routinely in casual conversations, so often go unnoticed. But they stick out when used in professional settings.
“像”“嗯”“额”及其他一些词语在日常对话中是司空见惯的,所以通常不会被注意到。但是在一些专业场合中则显得尤为突兀。
2. Speaking too quickly
语速过快
Rapid speech is a common effect of nerves, and can make the speaker hard to follow. That's especially bad during a presentation, when clarity is extremely important.
语速过快反映说话者非常紧张,也会让别人跟不上说话者的思维。在做报告的时候这点尤其要不得,因为作报告时内容的清楚明了特别重要。
3. Speaking too quietly
音量过低
Another routine problem for people is learning to project and speak at the correct volume.
还有一个普遍问题就是人们要学会用适合的音量说话。
4. Uptalk, or phrasing statements as questions
用升调或者分句把陈述句弄成了疑问句
Another issue in speech is known as uptalk — ending a statement on an upward pitch so that it sounds like a question even when it's not.
还有一个问题就是有些人喜欢在陈述句的末尾用一个上扬的音调把不是问题的句子弄成了疑问句。
5. Speaking in a monotone voice
从头到尾一个音调
Nothing turns an audience off like a boring presenter.
观众最不能忍受的就是一个无聊的说话者了。
