2.2.1Appealing to the Speaker
Why is it important to make a speech appealing to the speaker？ If a topic does not attract you as a speaker, you will lack the emotional enthusiasm and knowledge to attract the audience. So first you need to ask: "What am I really interested in？" If you show interest in the examination system in China, you must have read widely about this topic and know a great deal about public opinion on this issue. Furthermore, you must have thought about this issue at length and formed your own opinions. Thus, when you select it as your speech topic, you'll know where to look for information, how to summarize current views on the issue, and how to win over your audience. If you choose a topic of little interest to you, and have not researched it thoroughly, you would certainly have little to say about it. Consequently, your audience would not be impressed either. So before you select a speech topic, it is better for you to ask the following questions and see if you can have a satisfactory answer to each one of them.
Am I really interested in this topic？
Do I have much knowledge regarding the topic？
Have I read a great deal about the topic？
What is the controversial issue？
As a college student, you might show great interest in a wide range of topics, such as sports, literature, art, history, the development of science and technology, etc. But the things that interest you might not necessarily interest your audience. So the issue for us to consider next is how to interest the audience in your speech.
