Question

Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing．The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves．The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become．In fact, public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent （天赋） ．Anybody who can talk can speak in public．Here are some of the lessons I have learned:

Try to make your idea clear and brief．If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough．If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense．After all, what you can impress your audience in your speech is one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not ten or twenty．

No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well-how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．When you know where you're headed, you can choose any route to get there．

Finally, you'd better limit the time of your speech as properly as you can to hold the audience's curiosity．Take a vaudeville act （杂耍） for example．The standard length of one is usually 12 minutes．Just imagine how you are feeling if you have been watching all the performers singing and dancing their hearts out for more than the standard time!

解析:

76．文章第一段最后提出Anybody who can talk can speak in public．Here are some of the lessons I have learned:已经点明写作意图：如何做公开演讲。

77．从第二段If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough．可以看出，应该使演讲有焦点，并围绕焦点展开。  

78． 从第二段If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense．可以看出来，如果观点不明确，听众会不知所云。

79．第三段第一句话开篇点题， No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well，强调了谋篇布局的重要性。

80．第三段第一句话后面的how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close表明我们选择写作的路线图，亦即演讲的结构。

81．文章的构造包括开头和结尾。

82．从最后一段you'd better limit the time of your speech可以看出演讲的时间应该受到控制。

83．第一句话后部分强调演讲不要太长，要抓住听众的好奇心。
