Last Sunday, I watched the amazed FIVB Women’s Volleyball World Cup on TV. I jumped with joy as the Chinese team win the championship with eleven straight victory. The success is a timely but inspiring birthday gift to our country. Besides, it makes I understand the spirit of the Chinese women’s volleyball team--never give up, particular in difficult situations. This spirit dates back to early 1980s. At this time, young Lang Ping attracted the entire nation's attention with her excellent performances on the court. Ever since then, almost four decades has been witnessed the rise and fall of the Chinese team. However, the spirit has inspired one generation to another, both within the team and across the country.

Tips for Writing a Great Speech
How to write a strong speech? There are a lot of different ways to answer that question. 1.
Read your speech out loud.
Unlike almost all other forms of writing, speech-writing is designed for listeners. So, when reviewing your text, read it to yourself and pay attention to how the words sound and feel. 2. If your phrases make you stumble (结巴),they are guaranteed to make your boss stumble as well. Just remember that good writing is not necessarily good speech-writing.
Simple phrases are your friends.
Keep your sentences short and sweet. Compound phrases with multiple clauses may look great on paper, but are likely to confuse your audience and decrease the effectiveness of your speech. Limit yourself to one or two ideas per sentence. 3.
Do your research.
Before beginning a speech, make sure to familiarize yourself with the subject. 4. The creative aspects of speech-writing are only effective when backed by a strong foundation of knowledge by the speaker. The audience must trust your words in order for their meaning to sink in. If you' re well-prepared, it will show.
5.
Your listeners should be a strong determining factor of the content, tone and style of your speech. Before drafting remarks, think about who you' re speaking to, the place you' re speaking at and the timing of your speech. There's a time and a place for every type of remarks. It's your job to figure out when and where you are.
A. Know your audience.
B. Show respect to your listeners.
C. Express them as clearly and powerfully as possible.
D. Thus, you can write about it with confidence and authority.
E. Do they slip off the tongue or are they clumsy and awkward?
F. Different writers are most likely to adopt diverse approaches to speech-writing.
G. Here are rules that all writers should follow in order to write a winning speech.
