Even if youre clever and educated, you could still be guilty of making these popular butannoying speaking mistakes.
即使你很聪明也受过教育,但是你仍然可能会因为犯一些常见但很烦人的口语错误而充满罪恶感。
Theres a lot you can change about your presentation to make yourself seem smarter(and, hey, if you want to go for substance over style, plenty of ways to actually be smarter), but few have a bigger impact than eliminating bad speech habits.
关于演讲,你可以做很多改变来让你自己看起来更聪明(另外,嘿,如果你主张内容重于风格,那么有很多方法可以让你实际上听起来更聪明),但是没有什么能比改掉演讲中的坏习惯更有效果。
Youre an educated person, however, who knows to stay away from aint, avoids the valley girl staple like, and steers clear of fillers like ummm. Does that mean your speech is as polished as it could be? Chances are that no matter how clever and careful you are, youre still making at least a few inadvertent
errors that lower others opinion of your intelligence.
你是一个受过教育的人,然而,谁知道要远离aint(不是),避免山里的女娃特爱说的like,以及绕开使用诸如ummm(嗯) 之类的填充词呢。那是否意味着你的演讲能和预期一样达到精彩绝伦呢?可能的情况是:无论你多么聪明和细心,你仍然会犯一些会降低你在他人心中的聪明程度的无心的错误。

Here are five of the best:
