j st glance down atthe comp ter screen briefly. one s re way to lose an a dience is to t rn yo rback on them. and while yo re maintaining great eye contact, don t forget tosmile as well. unless yo r topic is very grim, a smile can be a very powerf l thing. 尽力用眼睛盯住听众,而不是朝大伙轻瞄一眼。由于您正使用电脑,因此您决不需要看您后面的大屏幕-短时间低头看一下电脑屏幕就行了。把背朝向听众的做法一定会使您失去他们的。而当您和听众保持良好的眼神接触时,别忘了也要微笑一下。除非您的话题非常严肃,否则保持微笑是非常非常有好处的。 8. keep thelights on 8.打开室内灯光 if yo are speaking in a meeting room or a classroom, the temptation is to t rnthe lights off so that the slides look better. b t go for a compromise betweena bright screen image and ambient room lighting. t rning the lights off - besidesind cing sleep - p ts all the foc s on the screen. the a dience sho ld belooking at yo more than the screen. today s projectors are bright eno gh toallow yo to keep many of the lights on. 如果您是在会议室或教室演讲,那么关灯之后的幻灯片效果好些。但是要对明亮的屏幕图像和室内光线之间进行权衡。关了灯-除非是让大家睡觉-就是把大家的注意力都引到屏幕上了！听众应该多看您,而不是看屏幕！现在的投影仪已经足够亮了,您可以将室内的大多数灯光打开。 9. use a tv forsmall gro ps 9.为小组提供电视 if yo are presenting to a small gro p, then yo can connect yo r comp ter to alarge tv (via the s-video line-in). with a tv screen, yo can keep all or mostof the lights on. make s re yo r text and graphics are large eno gh to be seenon the small the screen. yo will probably have to increase the type size significantly. 如果您的听众是一个小组,那么你就可以将电脑连接到一个大型电视(通过s端接入)。有了电视屏幕,你就可以打开大部分的灯光。请确保您的文本和图形足够大,这样在小屏幕上才看得清楚。您可能需要增大字号的大小。 10. at alltimes: co rteo s, gracio s, & professional 10.在任何时候:礼貌、和蔼、专业 when a dience members ask q estions or give comments, yo sho ld be gracio s andthank them for their inp t. even if someone is being diffic lt, yo m st keepto the high gro nd and at all times be a gentleman or lady and co rteo sly dealwith s ch individ als. the tr e professional can always remain cool and incontrol. remember, it is yo r rep tation, so always remain gracio s even withthe most challenging of a diences. 当观众提问或作评论的时候,你应该表现心态随和,并感谢他们参与。即使有人刻意刁难,您也要表现出绅士或淑女之风,以高姿态、礼貌的方式妥善处理。真正的专业人士总是能保持冷静,控制局面。请记住,这是您的声誉,即使遇到最难对付的听众,也始终保持和蔼可亲。
