做presentation时，若能提供看得见的数据，再给观众一些具体可及的线索，那么这场presentation就成功一半了。现在，Daphne就准备了一些醒目有力的幻灯片来增强presentation的效果。
I have prepared a short slide presentation to give you a picture of the Taiwanese market. Please direct your attention to the screen behind me while I dim the lights.
我准备了一段简短的幻灯片，让各位对台湾市场有个了解。现在我把灯光调暗，请大家看我背后的屏幕。
The Taipei area, with a population of six million people, is the trendsetter for Taiwan As you can see from these photos of people in the business area, both men and women are very style-conscious. They have an eye for glamour and good looks, and are willing to spend money to get the look they want. This next slide shows the beauty section of a typical drugstore; lots of famous brands from Japan, Europe, and the United States, plus a broad range of domestic brands. Gentlemen, this is without a doubt a competitive market.
拥有六百万人口的台北地区，是台湾流行趋势的创造者。从这几张商业区人们的照片可以看出，不管男女都很注重打扮，对魅力和美貌的看法也很独特，而且舍得花钱塑造自己想要的外表。下面这张是一家典型购物中心的美容用品区，有数十种来自日本、欧洲和美国的名牌产品，以及台湾本地产品。各位，毫无疑问地，这真是一个竞争激烈的市场！
Moving on to Taipei's hairstyling salons... hmm, that slide seems to have been placed upside down. I'm sorry for the delay; it will only take a moment to flip the slide... There, that's better. As I was saying...
接下来看看台北的发廊，咦，……这张幻灯片似乎放倒了。很抱歉，耽误一下，马上就好……好了，正如我刚才所说的……
Notes:
1. style-conscious 注意打扮的
style有“时尚；风格；品格”之解释，在这里则偏向“流行（样式）”的意思。conscious，有“自觉的”的意思。这两个词合成一个形容词，指“注意流行风尚的”，引申为“着重外表打扮的”。
She was so style-conscious; she read every fashion magazine she could find.
她非常注重打扮，每一本时尚杂志她都看。
2. have an eye for 对……有独到的眼光
Eye的意思并不只有“眼睛”，也可指“眼光；观察力”，在此是指“欣赏事物的能力”，与appreciation同义。这个词组表示某个人对某方面的事物或人有独特而正确的鉴赏能力，能够看出别人所无法察觉的价值。而另一个用法相似的have an ear for意思是“对……（音乐、声音）有独到的鉴赏力”。
When I was young, I had an eye for pretty girls. In fact, I became an expert on the subject.
我年轻的时候，对美丽的女孩有独到的眼光；事实上，我变成了这方面的专家。
3. without a doubt 毫无疑问
Doubt 可当动词、名词使用，意思是“疑问、怀疑”， without则是“没有”，合在一起是副词词组，表示“毫无疑问”。这个词组也可替换成 certainly 或 surely，但语气比这两个词强烈得多。
Without a doubt you have hepatitis--the blood test proves it.
你无疑是患了肝炎--血液检测证实了这一点。

在开始放幻灯片或投影片等视听辅助器材之前，必须提醒在场的观众，请他们注意。Please direct your attention to...是个直接又常用的说法。

放幻灯片时，应该同时说明幻灯片的内容，帮助观众了解，但只要间歇说明即可，让观众也有时间自己看。

Presentation中使用视听辅助器材时，偶尔会发生些小问题，如果那个问题是在场者都察觉得到的，就应立即大方道歉。
特别提示
您相信“一张图胜于千言万语”吧?!事实上，图片不但和人一样能说话，有时还更具有说服力。因此presentation时如果能适时地佐以适当的视听媒体，必能将说明烘托得更精彩。
演讲者的presentation内容若较着重于文字、重点、标题或草图的交代时，较适合选择以白板作为presentation媒体。
在presentation时，演讲者以投影片作为presentation媒体的优点为可以不关灯，在室内正常光线下展示投影片，但无法投射不透明的图片，而且放映的影像常有变形的现象。 www.qidian55.com
