traditional eloquence training methods

1. Thinking training

(1) The relationship between thinking and oral expression

Psychologists believe that oral expression is conditioned by complex physical and psychological activities. The speech of the mouth and the thinking of the brain have a complementary and interdependent relationship. The development of eloquence is the transformation process of the silent language (internal language) hidden in the heart to the voiced language (external language) that is displayed on the outside; what is the problem people think about? just say. What you say is what you just thought; what you think just now is what you want to say next.

Thinking and speaking, thinking and expression are mutually transmitted and repeated, turning silent language into spoken language, so as to exchange ideas, exchange opinions, exchange intelligence and transmit information in social activities.

Oral expression, which is different from written expression, requires quick thinking and flexibility. In daily work, production, study and life, when confronted with situations, the response is dexterous, adaptable, and responds fluently, which is a manifestation of quick thinking. To do this, you need to strengthen the training of rapid expression on a regular basis.

(2) The relationship between knowledge and expression

Abundant knowledge can develop intelligence and enlighten thinking. The best eloquence is to nourish the hearts of the listeners with the nectar of knowledge, and to open the hearts of the listeners with the keys of knowledge. Knowledge is boundless in quantity and boundless in development. To obtain it, it depends on the accumulation of knowledge and the establishment of a knowledge warehouse. Making knowledge cards is accumulating

It is an effective method of knowledge, which can bring the mysteries of the vast universe, the secrets of the microscopic world, and the essence of the past and the present, eclectic and eclectic, for my use. As long as you insist on accumulating over time, you can reach the realm of "hundreds of treasures in the chest, and thousands in the mouth".

(3) Memory training

In order to have good eloquence, in addition to quick thinking and flexibility, it is more important to have sufficient preparation, and adequate preparation mainly refers to the familiarity with the content of the speech, which inevitably involves memory. Not only the material of the speech, but the language of the speech and even the structure of your carefully designed speech. Only by memorizing both the content and the form can it be expressed in an orderly and clear-cut way.

Take speech as an example, if you want to be eloquent and effective, the best strategy is to write down the speech and express it without writing. According to the script, it will inevitably lose the charm of speech. Reading-style speeches often lack the coordination of expressions and actions due to their concentration on the manuscript paper, and cannot fully express

Emotional pornography and the speaker's own actual feelings make the speech lose its vividness and become a dull, blunt and rigid narration; and due to the concentration on the manuscript paper, there must be a lack of "eye contact" with the audience.

To speak unscripted and get the best effect in oral expression, the first and most important way is to thoroughly understand the content of the lecture. However, in daily work and life, there are not many speeches with speeches, and speeches without speeches are quite common. For example, discussions, discussions, debates, attendance at invitational meetings, etc., are often "surprised", asking you to say a few words and express your opinions.

Faced with this situation, what should we do? Bring the relevant knowledge stored in the brain improvisationally, organize it a little bit, and use it. As long as you usually memorize a large number of quotations from leaders, famous philosophical sayings, works of writers, scientific terms, idioms and allusions, fables, common sense of history and geography, anecdotes and other material knowledge, when you express it, there will be "the endless stream of the Yangtze River", so that People were amazed.

From this point of view, whether it is a written speech or an unwritten speech, it will undoubtedly rely on memory. Because memory is the reflection and reproduction in the human brain. Through memory, information can be stored, and prepared speech materials and unprepared material knowledge can be engraved in the brain. There is no manuscript or the manuscript is put aside to go to the pulpit, and the speech can be like a cloud of water, gushing endlessly.

There are many methods of memory, and there are also many articles and monographs on the introduction of memory. Some people also summed up this experience: "Understanding is the foundation of memory, debate is the friend of memory, recitation is the foundation of memory, repetition is the remedy for memory, taste is the medium of memory, association is the driving force of memory, and application is memory. The key is that streamlining is the assistant of memory, and the card is the warehouse of memory.”
