    Some people think that passion (激情) plays an important role in public speaking. Others may say that the interaction (互动) between the speaker and the audience is the key to public speaking. Of course, both of them are truly important, but for me, body language is the most important if he or she has the above characters.

    Actually, we can imagine a picture: A speaker is speaking on the stage with passion, and he always interacts with the audience but with no body language. Is it like a dry branch which suffered a heavy storm just now? When a public speaker speaks excitedly with correct body language, he can easily raise the audience's spirits and emotions.

    How to train body language of a public speaker?

    _______________: A good smile can help your speech be more successful. You can bite (咬) a pen in your mouth and your eyes look at a place for a minute without moving.

    Standing posture: Back against the wall and try to place your head, shoulders, hips and heels and other parts of your body against the wall. Practice it for ten minutes twice a day.

    Gesture: Remember when you use your gesture, you need to pay attention to (注意) your eyes and expression and other postures.
