You have been thinking about it all week. It kept you awake last night. Now, as you walk to the front of the class, your throat is dry and your stomach feels funny. However, by making a few small preparations and rehearsing （预演） carefully, you too can be a public speaking star.
Being excited about your topic is necessary for all the good speeches, so it's important to choose carefully. If you enjoy your topic, your audience （观众） will, too. Even if you are given a topic, try to find something about it that is exciting or funny.
Next, do some research. Don't just research your topic. If you can, study video of a great speaker to see how they move, speak, and pause （停顿）. Copying their style will help you to write a great speech. After researching, it's time to write your speech. During this stage, think of your audience all the time. It helps you relax if you know that your audience is enjoying your speech. Finally, rehearse.
You really need to rehearse a lot. Measure your speech with a watch, and practice in front of a mirror （镜子）.If you have followed all these steps, you should be ready for your audience. Good luck!
