Feeling some nervousness before giving a speech is natural and healthy. It shows you care about doing well. But, too much nervousness can be detrimental. Here's how you can control your nervousness and make effective, memorable presentations:
演講之前感到些許緊張是自然、有益的。這表明你渴望把事情做好。不過，過度緊張則會適得其反。這里教給你一些如何控制緊張情緒，進而使演講達到預期效果、令人難忘的方法：
1. Know the room. Be familiar with the place in which you will speak. Arrive early, walk around the speaking area and practice using the microphone and any visual aids.
熟悉場地。爭取熟悉你要發表演講的環境。提早到達并巡視講臺，練習使用麥克風和其他輔助視覺設施。
2. Know the audience. Greet some of the audience as they arrive. It's easier to speak to a group of friends than to a group of strangers.
熟悉聽眾。在聽眾進入會場時向他們致意。向一群友好的人演講總比對一群陌生人演講來得容易些。
3. Know your material. If you're not familiar with your material or are uncomfortable with it, your nervousness will increase. Practice your speech and revise it if necessary.
熟悉你的講稿。如果你不熟悉你的稿子或者對它不滿意，你的緊張感就會增強。演練你的演講稿，并且做必要的修改。
4. Relax. Ease tension by doing exercises.
放松自己。做些準備活動松弛緊張的神經。
5. Visualize yourself giving your speech. Imagine yourself speaking, your voice loud, clear, and assured. When you visualize yourself as successful, you will be successful.
設想你自己演講時的情景。想象你自己在侃侃而談，聲音洪亮、吐字清晰、充滿自信。倘能設想自己成功，你就一定會成功。
6. Realize that people want you to succeed. Audiences want you to be interesting, stimulating, informative, and entertaining. They don't want you to fail.
要意識到在場的人們希望你成功。聽眾希望你的講話興味昂然、催人向上、旁征博引且風趣幽默。他們不愿看到你把事情搞砸。
7. Don't apologize. If you mention your nervousness or apologize for any problems you think you have with your speech, you may be calling the audience's attention to something they hadn't noticed. Keep silent.
不要道歉。假使你說到你的緊張或為你覺得任何講稿中感到不妥的地方表示歉意，你就可能是在提醒聽眾注意一些他們其實并未意識到的東西。對此絕口不提就是。
8. Concentrate on the message -- not the medium. Focus your attention away from your own anxieties, and outwardly toward your message and your audience. Your nervousness will dissipate.
集中注意力于內容上，而不是形式。把你的注意力從內心的焦慮上解脫出來，轉向外在的演講內容和聽眾。然后你的緊張感就會逐漸消失。
9. Turn nervousness into positive energy. Harness your nervous energy and transform it into vitality and enthusiasm.
把緊張轉化為積極的動力。要控制你的緊張情緒并把它變成活力和熱情。
10. Gain experience. Experience builds confidence, which is the key to effective speaking. A Toastmasters club can provide the experience you need.
積累經驗。經驗會帶來自信，后者是演講取得成效的關鍵。加入司儀俱樂部你就能學到你需要的經驗。
