Speech is a text that
has purpose to persuading people to agree with our opinion. In making a speech
we need an idea of the speech and what we want to tell to the audience. Now I
will tell you about the speech and the tutorial to making a good speech. At the
end of this page, I also will give you an example of the speech that I make by
self.
A.
Structure
of the speech
In the speech text
there are 3 parts of the text which is opening, body, and closing. Each part of
the text has a function. Here is the explanation about the parts of speech
text:
a.
Opening
In
the opening contents opening greeting, thanking, and also respecting
expression. In the opening we
must grab the attention of the audience, and engage their interest in what we
have to say in our speech. This can be achieved in several ways. For example,
we could raise a thought-provoking question, make an interesting or
controversial statement, recite a relevant quotation or even recount a joke.
Once we have won the attention of the audience, our speech should move seamlessly
to the middle of the speech. Actually, opening has a function to introducing
self, greeting the audience and also to tell the main idea of the speech.
b.
Body
The body of the speech will always be the largest part of the speech. At
this point the audience will have been introduced to the subject of the speech
and will hopefully be ready to hear our arguments, our thoughts or even our
ramblings on the subject of the speech. The best way to set out the body of the
speech is by formulating a series of points that we would like to raise. In the
context of the speech, a "point" could be a statement about a
product, a joke about the bridegroom or a fond memory of the subject of a
eulogy. The points should be organized so that related points follow one
another so that each point builds upon the previous one. This will also make
the speech a more logical progression, and make the job of the listener a far
easier one.
c.
Closing
Like at the opening, the closing of the speech must contain some of the
strongest material. We should view the closing of the speech as an opportunity.
It is an opportunity to:
– Summarize the main points of your speech
– Provide some further food for thought for your listeners
– Leave your audience with positive memories of your speech
– End with a final thought/emotion
B.
How to make a
speech
In making a speech we need to look at the main idea that we want to
tell. We must to make the speech with the good language and the language must
easy for the audience to understand. Here are some steps to making a speech:
a.
Find the material of the speech
Collecting material for
composing speeches must be done carefully. Material must be adapted to the
topic to be conveyed and is general in nature. We need also to read many references
in making a good speech.
b.
Make a speech
frame
Make the speech frame must arranged
following the structure of the speech. We must to determine the main idea each structure’s part that what
we want to tell to the audience. This speech frame is important because from this
frame we can easily to develop the main idea each part of the speech.
c. Develop the frame of speech
We need to develop the frame into a speech. We add some explanatory
sentence that related with the main idea of each part. We must to use formal language
and can be understood by the audience. We can use persuade words in the speech
and we can use term of science in our speech to describing about some topic and
we can persuade the audience to following our opinion.
C. Example of
speech
Here is the example of the speech that I made:
The Effect Of
the Gadget for Student
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for the time
that has given to me. My name is Bryan Raphael Kurniawan. In this opportunity I
would like to deliver my speech under the title “The Effect of Gadget for
Student”.
Ladies and gentlemen, in this modern era, technology grows
fast and certainly technology helps us in many things. Kind of gadget that I
want to talk about is smart phone. Smart phone is a technology, we can do
communication, and we can do many things with smart phone. Smart phone can help
us, but smart phone also can give some bad effect for us, especially for
students.
Ladies and gentlemen, students sometimes regard that smart
phone is used only for playing games but actually smart phones can help student
to study. In this era, many students are addicted to play smart phones. Although
students have free time, which can be used to study or do their hobby, but they
use their free time to play game or busy to interact in social media using
their smart phones. Not just that, time that could be spending with their
families or friends, they use it to be alone with their smart phone.
Ladies and gentlemen, students who addicted to play smart
phones also can influence their health, for example, some students who always
busy with their smart phones they are late to eat, late to sleep, and finally they
may get sick so they can’t go to school. The radiation of smart phones also can
make student’s sight be disturbed, and finally students can’t study well.
Ladies and gentlemen, many students are addicted to play smart
phones, so we as students must managed our time to do useful activities, such
as sports, study or doing hobby. Playing smart phone is not the only way to
have fun, because we can have fun with our families and our friends. Smart phone
can be useful for students, if it is used well.
Ladies and gentlemen, I think that’s all about my speech, I
hope my speech would be useful for us. Thank you very much for your attention.
