1. The audience are likely to remember only three things from your presentation – plan in advance what these will be.

　　聽眾或許只會從你的演講中記住三樣東西——都是什么呢?提前做好計劃!

　　Believe it or not, the chances are, people will only remember three things from your presentation. So before you start writing your presentation, plan what your three key messages will be. Once you have these messages, structure the main part of your presentation around these three key themes and look at how they could be better illustrated.

　　不管你信不信，聽眾只能記住三點與你演講有關的內容。因此在開始寫演講稿之前，就要確定好你最關鍵的三條信息。一旦你確定了這些信息，圍繞這三個主題構建你演講的主要內容并考慮如何更好的闡述。

　　2. There are three parts to your presentation

　　你的演講包含三個部分

　　The beginning, the middle and the end. Start to plan out what you will do in these three parts. The beginning is ideal for an attention grabber or for an ice breaker. The end is great to wrap things up or to end with a grand finale.

　　開場、正文、結尾。開始規劃你要在這三部分講什么，典型的開場就是吸引注意力或是破冰，結尾可以把所講的內容回顧一番或是來一個壓軸戲。

　　3. Use lists of three wherever you can in your presentation

　　演講中盡可能將觀點列為三點進行表達

　　Lists of three have been used from early times up to the present day. They are particularly used by politicians and advertisers who know the value of using the rule of three to sell their ideas.

　　列為三點這種方式已經從過去沿用至今，它們熟練的被政治家和廣告制作人用來銷售他們的理念，因為他們深知“三的法則”的價值。
