A、They talk about pictures their teachers show to class. B、They talk about objects they bring in to school. C、They tell stories

Good afternoon! Today I’d like to give you a brief talk on public speaking. Students in American schools learn from an early age to give presentations as part of their regular classroom activities. Children as young as five years old often give brief talks about objects they bring in to school—called "show and tell." This training is a basis for later public speaking. Even so, many native English-speaking adults are afraid to speak or give presentations in front of a large group. Speaking English in public meetings is necessary for many students and employees. The best way to improve is to practice public speaking in a friendly environment. Learners need to receive feedback about what they are doing well and about their mistakes. One group that gives members the chance to practice is Toastmasters. Toastmasters is an international organization that holds weekly meetings. At the meetings, members each give a speech and give others advice about their speeches and speaking style.
   Charles LeBeau is a public speaking professor and consultant. This is what he says about a simple approach that helps English learners. "The approach that I’ve taken is to simplify and break it down. First, if we look at presentation, what’s going on, there are basically three messages that the presenter is giving the audience, all simultaneously. There’s what I call the physical message, which is basically body language. It’s the way that my body, as a speaker, is talking to the audience. And then there’s also the visual message. The visual messages are the slides that we now make and show the audience. And the third message is the story message, which is the content of our presentation. The story message also includes how we organize our ideas to present to the audience. "
   Next time we will explore Charles LeBeau’s recommendations for improving the physical message. He thinks this is the public speaking skill that is easiest for English learners to improve quickly.
