When you drive on the roads,you know where you are on those roads.
當你驅車行駛在公路上,你知道你處在公路的哪一個位置。
Each road has a name or number.
每一條路都有其名和號碼。
Each town has a name.And each house has a number.
每一個城鎮(zhèn)都有名字。每一間房子也都有門牌。
If you are at house NO.100,you can go back to No.50 or forward to NO.150.
如果你在一百號房,你就可以找到五十和一百五十號房。
You can look at the signposts for directions.
你可以通過路標找到方向。
And you can look at your atlas for the structure of the roads in detail.
你也可以通過地圖詳細地看到道路結構。
In other words,it is easy to navigate the roads.

You cannot get lost.
你就不會迷路。
But when you give a speech,how can your audience know where they are?
但是當你在做一個演講的時候,你的聽眾怎樣知道你說到哪里了呢?
How can they know the structure of your speech?
他們怎么知道你的演講框架呢?
How can they know what is coming next?
他們怎么知道下一個又將是什么話題呢?
They know because you tell them.
Because you put up signposts for them,at the beginning and all along the route.
只有你告訴他們,他們才知道,是因為你從始直終為他們設置了航標。
This technique is called"Signposting"(or"Signalling").
這就叫“導航”
During your introduction,
you should tell your audience what the structure of your speech will be.
在開始介紹的時候,你不妨告訴聽眾你所做演講的框架結構。
You might say something like this:
你可以這樣對他們說:
"I'll start by describing the current position in Europe.
"我先描述一下當前歐洲的形勢作為我演講的開始。
Then I'll move on to some of the achievements we've made in Asia.
然后,我將談談我們在亞洲取得的成績。
After that I'll consider the opportunities we see for further expansion in Africa.
之后,我將評估一下在非洲進一步擴展的可能性。
Lastly,I'll quickly recap before concluding with some recommendations."
最后,我將做個總結,提出建議。“

And throughout your speech,
you will put up signposts telling him which point you have reached
and where you are going now.
在你的整個演講過程中,你可以設置航標,告訴聽眾你提到了哪些要點,要繼續(xù)。
When you finish Europe and want to start Asia,you might say:"

“What's all I have to say about Europe.Let's turn now to Asia."
