1
Hi everyone, my name is Anne Ricketts with Lighthouse Communications and today we're talking about how to be on point.
2
In other words, how can you be clear, concise, and persuasive when you communicate, which is something that we all want.
3
The first thing, right, may seem obvious, but it is your point, so get to it.
4
Get to your point.
5
A lot of times people give background information
6
and they lead up into their point and
7
if you look around you see a lot of confused faces so you want to reverse that.
8
Start with your point and then explain.
9
This goes for emails, conversations, whatever.
10
Just start with your point.
11
If you do this the listener has to do very little work to understand where you're going.
12
I want to share with you an outline
13
that you can use to help structure your points to ensure that they're clear and concise.
14
It's called PREP and PREP stands for point, reason, example, point summarized.
15
Let me give you an example.
16
Let's say that we're having a meeting and we're discussing whether or not we should release a product.
17
So we have this due date, we want to release it in time, but there are some glitches and we're not quite sure what we should do.
18
So we're going back and forth.
19
So I'm going to use prep to structure my point.
20
I think that we should hold off on the product release for two weeks
21
because we don't want a firestorm of complaints for users.
22
It would be bad press and we don't need that.
23
For example, last year in May 2013, we were in a very similar situation.
24
We felt pressure to release the product in time, but there were a few glitches and we decided to go ahead and release it.
25
Within 48 hours we were inundated with complaints, we got some bad press, and I believe at that time we all agreed that it would have been in our best interest to hold off.
26
So based on our negative experience from last year, I really, really think we should not repeat the same mistake.
27
I like to compare using this prep outline to using the Google Map app
28
when you're on a road trip know where to start, you know where you're going, and the best part about it is you know when to stop.
29
So again, this is Anne Ricketts with Lighthouse Communications.
30
Thank you so much.

練習技巧
在練習時，可以藉助 shadowspeak 方法進行模仿。選擇影片中的某些片段，儘量在與演講者相同的速度和語調下複述內容。這種 shadowing 技巧對提高您的語言流利度非常有幫助。在影片中，Anne Ricketts清晰的語調和明確的表達是模仿的最佳物件。
儘量集中注意力聽她的發音和語風，這將幫助您改善自己的發音和語調。進行 雅思口語練習 時，您也可以 utilizar類似的 shadowspeaks 方法，通過這種技巧來提高您應對不同場景的能力。此外，確保您在練習時自信地用英語表達，儘量減少對自己錯誤的擔憂。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 用 “should” 提建議 should + 動詞 — 表示應該做的事 | should release · should do · should hold |
| 最高階 the -est / the most … — 一組中最高或最低的 | our best · the best |
| 現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事 | we're talking · you're going · we're having |
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
