Thank you very much, Prof. Ohlander, for your very kind introduction.

I would like to thank Dr. Huang for permitting me the privilege to speak to this audience.

Forms of Address and GreetingsDistinguished colleagues, Ladies and gentleman, Good morning!

Others Can you hear me all right?

Is my voice too loud?

Reference to the Audience

I can see many of you are from …department.

I know many of you are familiar with this topic.

You all look as though you’ve heard this before.

I understand that you’ve all traveled a long way./ After hours of conference, you must feel a little tired. Now I’d like you to see an interesting topic…

[II. Introducing the Subject and the Outline of the Presentation]

[Background Information]
I would like to start by briefly reviewing the history of legal system.

Let us start with the theoretical basis of this new technique.
To begin with, we have to consider the principle.

I think it would be best to start out by looking at a few slides.

I should like to preface my remarks with a de script ion of the basic idea.

May I begin with a general outline of this project?

The first thing I would like to talk about is the definition of the terms I shall use in my lecture.
The first point I'd like to make is the historical background of the invention.

First, I shall explain to you why this new program is correct and feasible.

[Topic]
I would like to concentrate on the problem of domestic abuse in Taiwan.
I shall devote my talk to the surgical treatment of coronary disease.

I want to confine my talk to the latest developments in civil engineering.

Today, I am going to give a talk on the application of computers in medicine.

My topic today will deal with the observation of supernova.

In my presentation this morning, I'll limit myself to three major points only.

I take the liberty of restricting my discussion mainly to highway bridge construction.

Now, I would like to address myself to the most important aspect of this problem.

Among the many languages, I shall mention only BASIC.

What I am going to present today is the methodology and the data analysis.

I'm not going to say much about that except to discuss the literature on that topic.

[Outlining ]
My talk today consists of two parts. One is... and the other is...

I've divided my presentation into four parts.

I shall first talk about ... and then touch on... and finally discuss ...

The subject can be looked at under the following headings: ... (Pointing to the PowerPoint display)

I would like to divide my talk into two parts. The first part deals with…, the second part concerns ...

My presentation will be given in four parts. The first part deals with ... The second part relates to... The third part concerns ... And the last part discusses…

[Purpose/Objective]
The purpose of this presentation is to...

This talk is designed to…


[Correcting the Title of the Presentation]

First of all, I would like to mention that the title of my presentation should be ...

Please allow me to correct a mistake in the title of my speech which appeared in the program. Instead of... it should read...

[Reading. Another Person's Paper]-
Sometimes you are selected to read another person's paper, as he or she is absent.

I shall read a paper by Dr. Li from Guangzhou, china, who regrets that he could not be here. The title of his paper is...

I'm going to read the paper by Dr. Yang. It's a great pity that, because of a health problem, he could not be here.

I was asked by the author to read his paper. He apologizes for not being able to come here.
The next speaker, Prof. Yang, regrets that she could not be here and has submitted her paper to me. I am not sure if I can present it as well as she expected.

I am not sure whether I'll be able to be very confident in answering specific questions. However, I am somewhat familiar with his work, so I' ll try my best.

[Checking the Microphone]

First I want to check if all of you can hear me clearly.

Am I speaking clearly and loudly enough for those in the rear of the room?

I wonder if those in the rear of the room can hear me.

If those in the rear of the room can hear me, would someone please raise his hand?

Can you hear me clearly?
Can you hear me if I am away from the microphone?

Is the microphone working?

* Summary-How to Prepare a Good Introduction
Realize file great importance of the introduction of file presentation mad then do your best in delivering it.

Don' t make file introduction either too wordy, or too brief. Usually, it covers 10 to 15 percent of your entire speech.

Select tile ways to capture the audience attention.

Indicate tile topic.

Outline your Speech.

Announce your purpose.

Prepare several versions of tile introduction, compare them, and then select the best version. Finally, learn it by heart so as to be able to deliver it easily mid fluently.

Don't start your speech with apologies.

Pay attention to your body language.


[Shifting to the Next Main Point]
Well, let's move on to the next point.
We will now come to the second problem.

Turning to the next question, I'll talk about the stages of the procedure.

As the second topic, I shall stop here. Now let' s turn our attention to the third topic.

So much for the methodology of our experiment. I would now like to shift to the discussion of the results.

Now, let's move away from the first part and switch over to the next part of my presentation.

That's all for the introduction and now we can go on to the literature review.

Next, I would like to turn to a more difficult problem.

The next point I'd like to talk about is the feasibility of this project.
That brings me to my second point.

I am glad that we can now leave this rather boring subject of mathematic deduction and go into a more attractive one, that is the application of the formula.

[ Resuming the Topic ]

Let' s come back to what I said in the first part of my speech.

Getting back to the subject of the problem of theoretical considerations we can find that...

I want to return to the first part of my presentation.

Now, to get back to the effect of temperature, you may be aware that the problems have been solved.

This brings me back to the question of security.

At this point I would like to refer again to the question of methods in the first part of my lecture.

Referring again to the first question, I think...

Referring to the Coming Point

I'll deal with it later.

I' 11 touch upon that point in a moment.

I shall tell you in detail shortly.

[ Introducing the Supporting Materials ]

I think this part is the most difficult, so I'll explain it in greater detail.

I think this part of my paper is most important, so I plan to spend more time on it.

Please allow me to deal with this matter more extensively.
Being the most important part of my presentation, I will elaborate on it with more slides.

I' 11 expand this topic with drawings and figures.

Indicating the Points Briefly

Limited by the time available, I can only give you a very brief account of this matter.

I don't think that I should describe the methods in detail, because they are included in the handout.

I will not go into detail on it.

This point has been talked about repeatedly in this symposium, so I am not going to spend too much time on it.

Let's go through the following points very rapidly.

I just want to outline for you what I experienced in using this new drug.

I shall not go over all these explanations. My time is running short. So I'll be brief.

It is sufficient to say that these experiments were poorly designed and without controls.

[Repairing a Slip of Tone]

The first of such experiments began in 2000, rather than 1999.

May I have the lights, I mean the slides.

The temperature increased, I shall say decreased.

The population is 13 million, sorry, 31 million.

The exchange rate dropped from 2.5 to 1.8, I beg your pardon, 1.9.

As you can see from the first row, excuse me, the second row, that the output increased two fold.

[ Expressions Concerning Audio-Visual Aids]

Could we have the lights off? And the first slide, please.

Lights off, first slide, please.
Dim the lights, and first slide, please.

The slide is not so clear. Please darken the room a little more.

Could you please turn on the lights, please?
Now, we can have the lights on.

Please switch on the lights.

Lights on, please.

I apologize that this slide is not so clear, but I hope you can still make out the general idea.

Sorry for the small print.

I'm sorry we left a figure out here.

[ Explaining the Contents on the Slides ]

This slide demonstrates ...

On this slide, you can see...

This curve in this slide shows...

This figure in this slide exhibits...

This table on this slide presents...

This diagram on this slide depicts...

This chart on this slide displaces ...

The picture on this slide shows ...

The photomicrograph on this slide shows ...

The flow-chart on this slide points out...

The circuit diagram on this slide represents~...~

Indicating the Sources of the Content in a

This figure is taken from.., by Dr. Li.

This diagram is after that of Prof. Yang with some modification

[ Demanding to Show the Next Slide ]

May I proceed to the next slide, please?

I think we can move on to the next slide.

Let me show you the next slide.

Now, we can go on to the next slide. '

Next slide, please.

英語會議腳本 Script of Meeting
A Sample Script for Meeting in English
On “Membership” for “Visitors-Friendly Biking Cities Event”
Opening the meeting
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am today's chairman, WL from personnel office. Since the two thirds of people are all here. Now I declare the meeting open.
Reading the Minutes (Notes) of the Last Meeting
Has everyone received a copy of agenda? The first part on the agenda is the minutes of the previous meeting. First let's go over the report from the last meeting, which was held on May 21th 2010(date). I will read the minutes for you.

meeting-minutesTopic/ Discussion(subject)/ Action(Executions)/ Person Responsible
1. / the keynotes for deciding membership/ Major decisions on providing membership options for this event are taken by preparatory committee at previous meeting.
2./ Promoting and Applying Channels(宣傳與註冊方式)/ Besides announcing membership options at the official website, online application function and Individual Membership Application Form should be added into our official website. The IT department should be in charge of the task.

Dealing with Recent Developments
Joyce( works in IT department), can you tell us how the online appling project is progressing?
Joyce:Our staff already started to create the official website and to facilate the registration procedure and membership applying procedure right after the previous meeting.
Joyce, thank you for your progress report. Does anyone have any comment on this? (N0)
Can we take the minutes as read? (Yes/ No)
Ok, thanks you.
Moving ForwardSo, if there is nothing else we need to discuss, let's move on to today's agenda.
Introducing the Agenda
Have you all received a copy of the agenda? There are three items on the agenda.
（Subject I）
The first item to cover is about deciding what types of membership for our "Vistors-Friendly Biking Cities Event." Before my introduciton of the first topic, I would like to thank our colleges of personnel office. They have listed 3 options for us. Now please refer to the appendix I. There are 3 types of membership.
Apply Monthly Membership - US$15 NT$500 ·
The first on is Monthly Membership. The main idea of applying monthly membership is based on cost factors. Since we have a lot of expats carrying their bikes from different cities, most of them will choose to cycle around the whole island. An island round trip takes at least 10 days to 2 weeks, so providing monthly membership will be a good deal for both cyclists and local business. We can organize different department to work together and issue the monthly discount card in advance. Cyclists can choose to become a Member and enjoy discounted accommodation at 1200 VIP Hostels and vaired discount transportation coupons. This will definately boost local economy. By doing so, we make a profit inderectly from local accomodation business and gain international reputation at the same time.

Apply Annual Membership - $99 ·NT$3000
The second option is Annual Membership. Since the preparatory committee already decided to provide this option for attendees, and the whole organization will all act together to get this job done. We can provide the best discount set (package) for those who attend this sport event in this year, so we shouldn't waste these sources. These efforts should continute yearly instead of monthly efforts. By doing so, those who receiving annual membership will always remind the happy memory and big discount at Taiwan and drive them to visit Taiwan again.
By the way, applying annual membership will benifit our office and local residents the most.
Apply Lifetime Membership - $299 NT$9000
The last one is lifetime membership. Now since we already dicide to provide membership options for those who join this event in Aug this year. We could provide them our best offer-Lifetime Membership. This promoting strategy is to create a distinctive feeling, so the attendees can enjoy those discount wheneven they come to Taiwan and feel they are part of nationals.
Those are the basic introduction about the 3 options. The further informatin such as cost and material please refer to the appendix I.
(chairman) Does anyone have any thoughts about this issue? Eric, who is working for marketing department, know somehting about marketing issue. I would like to give the floor to Eric.
(Eric) Those membership offers are excellent. Frankly speaking, we want people to apply our membership. Since our target market is foreign cyclists, facilitating safe and efficient bicycle travel is our main task. That would make our offer looked impressive in market.
(chairman) Thank for your opinion, who would like to comment further? We haven't heard from (Jill 品璇) , and she is a senior staff in Program Management Department and Preparatory Committee member. What are your view on this, Jill (品璇)?
(Jill 品璇/ Program Management Department) Because our goal for hosting the sports evnt is to boost local economic growth, I propose that those membership rewards must be supported by Central Government in oder to get fully support from other government agencies.
(Chairman) You've made an excellent point. Let our membership rewards be supported by Central Government and bring whole government agencies working together. Would anyone like to second this motion?
(Whole/ Ocean) I am second to Jill 品璇.
(Chairman) With everyone's approval, getting Central Government Supporting Letter would be a condition in menbership offering.
(柏豪 & 蕙芬 are chatting)
(chairman) I should call you to order. We can't speack all at once. Anyone wants to address your remark, please raise your hand.
(柏豪\ raising his hand) Could I jsut make a point about the task of Government Supporting Letter?
(Chairman) This isn't relevant to our discussion right now, and it suppose to be scheduled to next topic. Could we please stick to the first subject? Who would like to comment further?
(whole) NO.
Voting
(Charrman) Since we spent a lot of time and had a heated discussion on this matter. Could we take a vote on it? Everyone has 2 votes.
Who is in favor of monthly membership? (Counting the votes) OK. There are X people.
Who is in favor of annual membership? OK. There are X people.
Who is in favor of lifetime membership? OK. There are X people.
In the event of a tie, I would like to remind you that I have the casting vote (決定票). I vote for monthly membership and anual membership. It seems that we reach a consensus. The menbership for our sports event are X and Y membership.
Has anyone anything further they want to add before we move on to the next subject?
(Whole) NO.
(Subject II)
(Chairman) Now let use move on th subject 2 on the agenda, the content of Government Supporting Letter for our cycling event.
In order to draw government agencies' attention and get all of their efferts, we need the Letter for our cycling event. The Tourism Bureau will give us a detail report on this. 秀婷 is the head of Tourism Bueara. I wouldl like to give the floor to 秀婷.
(秀婷) Because our staff didn't finish the draft of the letter on time, I would like to propose that we defer this matter until we have more information at our disposal.
(Chairman) Who would like to second the motion?
(Whole 劭純) I am second to 秀婷.
(Chairman) Our discussion on the issue will have to wait until next meeting.
(劭純) Excuse me. Ms. Chairperson. May I say something please?
(Chairman) I would like to give the floor to 劭純.
(劭純) In order to speed up our further discussion, I propose to form a task force, made up of people from Tourism Bureau, marketing, finance and general affairs to preview this problem (regard the content of supporting letter) first.
(Chairman) Would anyone like to second the motion?
(whole\ Ocean) I am second to 劭純.
(Chairman) OK thank you. Now I would like to move on the last subject on our agenda. It is to decide our promoting Membership Rewards program. The content of the membership reward is very important and it will affect our applying figure. In the other words, it related to our income and profit. We got online applying system, but we still need realistic content to balance our budget balance. Does anyone have any thoughts about this issue?
(No one respond)
(chairman ) Since we run out of time, further discussion on this matter will have to wait until next meeting. Is there any other business?
(whole )No
Summarizing
(Chairman) Before we close, let me just summarize the main points. First, both monthly membership and anunal membership would be provided. Second, the Central Government Supporting Letter is important for membership reward and this task should carry by special task force. Finally, the content of membership reward should discuss in next meeting.
Finishing Up
Right, it looks as though we've covered the main items. Is there Any Other Business?
Suggesting and Agreeing on Time, Date and Place for the Next Meeting
Yes, Mr. Ocean(四海 raising hand)
(Ocean)Can we fix the next meeting, please?
So, the next meeting will be on May 28th 2010.
Thanking Participants for Attending
Thanks for your participation.
Closing the MeetingI declare the meeting closed.

4. Any questions?

回答問題：
1. Thanks a lot for raising this question.
2. This is really a good question.
3. Mr. Chen just asked a very good question.
4....However, you have asked many questions. Could you please ask one question at a time?

常見於國際會議中，因為各國制度差異性大，或者口音關係，因此常常必須一再確認對方打算要問的問題，才能正確回答或者較不偏離議題的回答。要不然，縱使非常正式的國際會議，也會出現雞同鴨講的情形。

常見確認問題的方式：
1. Sorry, I'm not sure I've understood. Could you please repeat?
2. Are you asking if...
3. Do you mean...?
4. I didn't catch (the last part of) your question. If I have understood you correctly, you mean...?
常見此情形回答方式：
1、.....If I have understood you correctly, you would like to know....Is that right? OK, let's go back to the third graph I talked about. As you can see,
2、Does that answer your question?
3、Is that OK?

態度 /attitute/ Handling questionsSkills / 『Yes..,but...法則』
1. Ask for repetition or clarification if necessary
2. Paraphrase the question to check you understand it. ( Give yourself time to think—perhaps by paraphrasing the questions)
3. Refer questioner to another person(expert) if you can’t answer.
(1) It is my lucky day because Dr. Yang, who is working for your company, is here and since Dr. Yang is one of hte top experts in ...field, he is the most appropriate person here to answer this question.

4. Be polite.
5. Signal when time is running out—“Time for one last question”
6. That’s a difficult question to answer in a few words.--It could be…--In my experience…--I would say…--I don’t think I’m the right person to answer that. Perhaps (Mr. Yang) can help…--7.I don’t have much experience in that field… I will check again with my colleagues and respond to you early next week, O.K.?


Understood but irrelevant or impossible to answer in the time available
9.I’m afraid that’s outside the scope of my talk/ this session.If I were you I’d discuss that with…I’ll have to come to that later, perhaps during the break since we’re running out of time.
10. I'm afraid that's outside the scope of my talk, but if you'd like, we can discuss this after the presentation.

英文簡報技巧

英文簡報技巧小小心得
中文簡報，多麼容易的一件事！以前我就是這麼認為，認為全英文簡報也不過如此，直到昨晚～～～。
快快閉門檢討並將之列出來，避免日後再犯

參考各家學說後，我想國立台灣大學圖書資訊學系副教授謝寶煖（資料來源http://www.lis.ntu.edu.tw/~pnhsieh/articles/presentation.htm）所書「簡報技巧」一文實在很不錯，因此摘記一些謝教授認為重要之處，配合昨晚「陣亡」後的「陣亡心得」，提出一些小小感想:


"簡報內容只佔7％；態度/形象，佔58％；其次是聲音，佔35％。"

成功簡報步驟：
1.聽眾：根據觀眾分析來準備簡報內容，需要為觀眾建立背景知識時，請大方地加以解釋，再把焦點拉回主題，讓所有觀眾都能同步。請把所以補充資料全部放在最後面，甚至另外製作附錄，讓觀眾帶回去參考。

2.內容：
（1）一動一靜原則：
A.靜態畫面+動態畫面（ ex: youtube)
B.靜態畫面+動態活動（ ex:Q＆A 或者 聽眾回答、有講徵答）
（2）簡報設計的原則是KISS (Keep It Simple and Stupid)。
（3）以數據、圖表、動畫等視覺工具來輔助說明。
（4）每張投影片傳達5個概念效果最好，7個概念 人腦可以處理，超過9個則負擔太重了
（5）大標題至少要用44點以上的字，如果會場很大、很深的話，點數最好再提高。大小標題，請盡量用粗體！標題的使用:最好是以5～9個字來說明。不要使用標點符號　
（6）資訊來源：應尊重智慧財產權，註明資料來源一來表示我們所引用資訊的權威性，二來也彰顯我們的專業。將資訊來源固定安排在投影片的固定地方
（7）讀書心得（讀書心得報告）：如果是課堂上的讀書心得，不要放太多個人意見

3.組織：
（1）開場白（Introduction）：第一張投影片要充份彰顯佔簡報成功關鍵58％的態度和形象(最上方要標明主辦單位或是會議名稱；主題，標明姓名、職稱和服務單位或是專長，聯絡方式)。
從行銷的角度來看，有人拿到這份講義覺得內容很精彩，不用打聽馬上就有足夠的資訊與我們連絡了。
（2）預告（Preview）：告訴聽眾我們接下來要講什麼準備一張投影片標示內容大綱，當然如果能以圖示更念人印象深刻。
（3）說明主要的和次要的概念，這些概念對聽眾有什麼意義（利益）
（4）回顧：告訴聽眾我們講過了什麼
（5）結論：聽眾現在該知道什麼或做什麼。最後別忘了說：謝謝！

4.練習：
（1）要控制時間。切記，千萬不要拖延時間(只要按一下 [投影片放映]功能表上的[排練時間]即可)。
（2）英文報告：為了解決用英文演講流暢度問題，可以預先於練習時以錄音筆預錄找出英文發音問題。

5.上場：
（1）優先表達，有主持人要謝謝主持人的介紹，觀眾有重要人物加以致意，儘量能提到幾位聽眾的姓名。
（2）接下來用開場白贏得注意，儘量建立主題與聽眾的關聯性，可以以一個問題開始，但是問的問題要與觀眾的需求相關，引起觀眾的注意。
（3）永遠說「我們」。
（4）永遠面帶微笑。目光接觸
（5）小抄（草稿）：
A.如果一緊張就將預演所準備的演說忘了的話，多加練習，或帶草稿克服此問題;
B.雖說英文演講時最好不要照念頭影片也不要背，不過如果英文流暢度不夠高的話，事實上，台下只聽英文的這些聽眾，也沒有辦法吸收內容，做此權衡的話，以「小抄」解決也未必不是好方法。6.檢討：
每次演講完就把這次演講中值得改進的地方加以修正，如果是投影片內容有需要增刪的，立即修改，下回接到類似主題的邀約時，就事半功倍了。

7.臺灣歷史介紹:
從2009.12.16發此稿以來，幾次場合以英文演講，發現，如果主要對象均為外國人又是第一次來台時，由於現場大家對臺灣歷史背景資料從缺，因此很多議題會無法理解。所以如果簡單用2分鐘的影片，可以將臺灣歷史go over一次的話，會有助於聽眾快速掌握議題。
在開場時就放影片搭上良好的配樂，印象指數會攀高甚多，正式的場合也可以試試看。不過，這不是用於過度具有政治或敏感性之場合。
