Differences and connections between speeches and argumentative essays
Speeches are as clear-headed, logical and distinctive as argumentative essays, but they are not ordinary argumentative essays. This is a practical style with propaganda and incitement. It often uses various rhetoric and artistic techniques, and has a strong appeal.

Speeches are not often used. Many famous speeches are improvised and handed down by others through records. However, for important speeches, it is best to prepare speeches in advance, because speeches have at least two functions: First, through careful thinking and careful organization of materials, the contents of speeches are more profound and coherent. Secondly, it can help the speaker eliminate the tension and fear on the spot and enhance the speaker's self-confidence.

trait

main distinction

Speech is very different from performance and composition.

Speech, also known as speech, refers to an information exchange activity in which a person uses voice language and body language to express his views, tell his views, explain things, publicize his views and express his feelings to the audience on some issues and events in some grand ceremonies and some public places.

First of all, speech is a social activity in which the speaker expresses his views directly to the audience through oral language on certain occasions on some meaningful things or problems that people are generally concerned about.

Secondly, the composition is that the author outputs information to the readers unilaterally through the article, while the speech is that the speaker exchanges information with the audience in two directions on the spot. Strictly speaking, a speech is a triangular information exchange between the speaker and the audience, and between the audience and the audience. The speaker can't be satisfied with conveying his thoughts, feelings and emotions, but must be able to control the reaction and communication between himself and the audience and between the audience. Therefore, the manuscript prepared for the speech has the following six characteristics:

main feature

First: pertinence. Speech is a social activity and a form of publicity used in public places. In order to explain the audience, impress the audience and "conquer" the masses with thoughts, feelings, examples and theories, it must be realistic and targeted. The so-called pertinence, first of all, is that the questions raised by the author are the concerns of the audience, and comments and arguments must have eloquent logical power, be accepted and convinced by the audience, in order to produce the social effects they deserve; Secondly, it is necessary to understand that the audience has different audiences, different levels, and different types of "public places", such as parties, professional meetings, service clubs, schools, social organizations, religious groups, and various competition occasions. When writing, we should design different speech contents for the audience according to different occasions and different objects.

Second: negotiability. The essence of speech lies in "speaking" rather than "doing", with "speaking" as the main part and "doing" as the supplement. Because the speech has to be spoken orally, it must be based on the premise of good presentation. If some articles and works are mainly for reading and appreciating, but for appreciating the meaning and charm, then the requirement of the speech is "catchy". A good speech is very important to the speaker; It should be nice to the listener. Therefore, after the speech is written, the author had better check it by trial or meditation. Anything you can't say clearly or hear clearly (such as the sentence is too long) should be revised and adjusted.

Third: encourage. Speech is an art, and a good speech has its own agitation, which can stimulate the mood of the audience and win good feelings. To achieve this, we must first rely on the richness and profundity of the ideological content of the speech, the incisiveness, originality and thought-provoking of the viewpoint, and the vivid, vivid and infectious language expression. If the speech is bland and uninspired, the effect will not be good, or even counterproductive, even if you "hit" hard on the spot.

Fourth, the whole speech cannot complete the speech task independently. It is only the written basis of the speech and an integral part of the whole speech activity. The subject, audience and specific time and space conditions of the speech are isomorphic, which constitutes the whole speech activity. When writing a speech, don't be divorced from the whole. Therefore, the following aspects should be paid attention to in the writing of speeches:

First of all, according to the audience's cultural level, nature of work, living environment, taste, hobbies and wishes, we should establish topics and choose ways of expression in order to communicate better.

Secondly, the speech should not only fully reflect the unique and profound views and opinions of the speaker, but also design and annotate the use of tone, speech speed and body language to achieve the best communication effect.
