Cheep up!__2__.Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making.Ask yourself the purpose of your speech.What is the occasion?Why are you speaking?Then，gather as many facts as you can on your subject.Spend plenty of your time doing your research.Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow.Use as many examples as possible，and use pictures，charts，and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly.__3__.Don't talk over their heads，and don't talk down to them.Treat your audience with respect.They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Just remember：Be prepared.Know your subject，your audience，and the occasion.Be brief.__4__.And be yourself.Let your personality come through so that you make person­to­person contact with your audience.
