First, the defense process.

(1) Briefly describe the contents of your graduation thesis. In the narrative, you should clearly state the idea (outline), arguments, arguments and discussion methods (methods) of writing this paper. It usually takes about 5 minutes. Through your narration, the defense teacher can understand the thinking process of your paper and examine your analytical and comprehensive induction ability.

(2) impromptu defense. After the defense teacher asks you 2-3 questions, one of them will usually ask questions about the basic concepts and principles involved in your thesis to see if the students understand the basic concepts and principles accurately. The second question, generally speaking, is aimed at a certain aspect of the argument involved in your paper, which requires to be discussed (discussed) in combination with actual work or professional practice. Investigate the connection and help of the basic professional knowledge you have learned to your practical work, that is, the ability to integrate theory with practice. The third question, according to the students' work experience, puts forward the problems in professional theory or practice, and guides students to explore the theoretical basis or many problems and hot issues in the current professional development in combination with cases and practices encountered in work practice. Examine students' potential professional ability.

Second, the defense preparation

(A) students need to prepare self-report issues

Third, defense skills.

(a) Read the document and answer questions

Students should first introduce the outline of the paper, which is called "self-report". It should be emphasized that "self-report" is not "self-reading". The important skill here is to be careful not to read the report verbatim and turn it into "reading". "Scripting" is the first taboo. This part can include writing motivation, reasons, research direction, topic comparison, research scope, the latest research results around this topic, my new insights, new understandings or new breakthroughs in the paper. Be concise. Can't take up too much time, usually limited to ten minutes. The so-called "cutting the complexity and leaving the quilt clear, the painting is always familiar", that is to say, try to write the words rich and to the point. We should highlight the key points and express our greatest gains, deepest experience, essence and most distinctive parts. It should be noted here that the theme is unknown; Second, avoid vague content and ramble; Three bogeys are dull and unfocused.

When defending, students should pay attention to manners and manners, which is the first signal to enter people's emotional channel. If the respondents can present a good image with good manners and manners in the first two minutes, it will be a good start.

When listening to the teacher's questions, you should master the following skills:

Calm down, listen and remember.

Concentrate and think seriously.

We should be confident and open-minded.

Seeking truth from facts, never demanding.

Listen carefully and listen clearly.

The skill to be mastered in answering questions is where is the "center", "crux" and "key" needed to answer each question when conceiving? Which angle is the best to answer the question? What examples should be given to prove it? The content of the answer is essentially an organized "oral composition". First, the article should have arguments and arguments. Second, there is a beginning, a subject and an end. Third, it is organized and hierarchical. Fourth, correct words and fluent language. Five, should be articulate and speak at a moderate speed. The beginning should be concise: straight to the point is the best beginning, and straight to the point to express your views is the best way to reply. The expression of the main part can be analyzed item by item, that is, the content to be answered is summarized and analyzed item by item, which is actually to sort out the materials you have mastered from the outside to the inside. Such a statement will not be superficial, but can go deep into the essence. Piecewise analysis can be combined with some practical examples that I have mastered, sorted into several items and listed into several subheadings: divided into several points and said one by one. A full bowl of rice must be eaten bite by bite, and the truth of full stomach must be told one by one, interlocking and interlocking, which makes people remember clearly after listening. If you have prepared a relatively complete outline when preparing, then put some jade beads (for example) along the main line of answering questions to make the center clear, coherent and reasonable.

As a student who will take part in thesis defense, he must first have a deep understanding and comprehensive familiarity with the contents of his graduation thesis. This is to prepare for answering questions that members of the thesis defense Committee may ask about the depth and related knowledge of the thesis. The so-called "deep understanding" means having a horizontal grasp of the graduation thesis. For example, in the thesis entitled "Creating famous brand products and developing national industries", the thesis defense committee may ask what is the relationship between "national brand" and "famous brand". Although "national brands" may not be involved in the graduation thesis, students who take part in the thesis defense must have a "comprehensive understanding" and a "profound understanding" of their graduation thesis, otherwise there will be an embarrassing situation.

(B) thesis defense-charts interspersed

Any graduation thesis, whether it is liberal arts or science, involves the possibility of expressing the views of the thesis with charts to some extent, so I think we should be prepared. Charts are not only an intuitive way to express opinions, but also a means to adjust the atmosphere of the thesis defense meeting. Especially for the members of the private thesis defense committee, listening for a long time will inevitably be rejected, and they will no longer accept and absorb what you have discussed, which will inevitably affect your graduation thesis defense performance. Therefore, you should properly insert charts or other media similar to charts in the process of thesis defense to improve your thesis defense performance.

(C) thesis defense-moderate language flow

Students who defend their graduation thesis are usually the first time. Numerous facts have proved that they often speak faster and faster when defending their papers, so that members of the graduation defense Committee can't hear clearly, which affects their graduation defense results. Therefore, in the process of thesis defense, graduation defense students must pay attention to the speed of language flow, combine urgency with slowness, and not bombard the audience like a barrage.

(D) thesis defense-eye movement

When a graduate defends a thesis, he can generally leave the manuscript, leave it half-time, or leave it at all. But no matter which way, we should pay attention to our eyes, so that our eyes often glance at the members of the thesis defense Committee and the students attending the meeting. This is a way for you to make eye contact with your audience and make them interested in your topic. At the graduation thesis defense meeting, because of the long listening time, members will inevitably be distracted. At this time, you will politely "pull" their gods back with the projection of your eyes, and let the members' thoughts follow your thoughts.

(E) thesis defense-body language assistance

Although the defense of graduation thesis is mainly oral like other thesis defense, proper use of body language will assist your thesis defense and make your thesis defense more effective. Especially if the gesture language is used properly, it will be confident, powerful and irrefutable. On the contrary, if you always stand up straight or bow your head in the process of thesis defense, even if your thesis is reasonable in structure, novel in theme and correct in conclusion, the effect of thesis defense will be greatly affected. Therefore, we must pay attention to the use of body language when defending our graduation thesis.

(6) Time control of thesis defense

Generally speaking, in a more formal thesis defense meeting, there is a requirement for the defense time of the debater. Therefore, students who defend their graduation thesis should pay attention to the mastery of the time of thesis defense. The time control of thesis defense should be strong, and the deadline will end immediately. This seems to be well prepared, and I am familiar with the mastery and control of the content, which is easy to leave a good impression on the members of the graduation thesis defense Committee. Therefore, before the graduation thesis defense, we should have an estimate of the content of the defense. Of course, the flexible reduction or increase in the process of graduation thesis defense is also a manifestation of the time control of thesis defense, which needs attention.

(7) thesis defense-stick to the theme

There are often many debaters when defending graduation thesis on campus. Therefore, for the members of the graduation thesis defense committee, it is impossible for them to have a comprehensive understanding of the content of each graduation thesis, and some may even be unfamiliar with the topic of the graduation thesis. Therefore, in the whole process of thesis defense, it is very important to deduce the topic around the theme. In addition, members are generally easy to ask questions about the theme of the paper. If the boundary can discuss the topic of the thesis from beginning to end, it will make the judges think clearly and affirm your graduation thesis.

(8) thesis defense-personal use

In the process of graduation thesis defense, it will inevitably involve the use of names. I suggest using the first person as much as possible, such as "I" and "we". Even if the materials in the thesis are quoted from others, we use "we have quoted" data or materials, especially the graduation thesis is often called self-made, so we should use the first person "I" and "we" more decisively and boldly. If so, it will give people the impression that something is yours and you have done a lot of work!

Fourth, the defense self-report template

(2) Examples

Dear teachers and students:

Good Morning, everyone!

I come from Class 2, Grade 2003, Department of Foreign Languages. My name is Yang Hanxiang. My thesis is entitled "Li Yang Crazy English and Oral English Teaching in Middle Schools". This paper is completed under the guidance of the lecturer Ling Hongbo. Here, I am very grateful to her for her long-term careful guidance and great help. At the same time, I would also like to thank the judges for taking valuable time out of their busy schedules to participate in the review of my thesis and participate in this defense. The following are the reasons for choosing this topic, the purpose, the preparation of data collection and the structure of the article.

1. The reason and purpose of the topic.

Everyone who loves English knows that Li Yang, the founder of Crazy English, has interpreted a wonderful life legend with his unremitting pursuit and continuous efforts. For more than ten years, with his successful experience and authentic American English, he has taught in nearly 100 colleges and universities across the country, which has set off a craze for crazy English learning and pushed the enthusiasm of Chinese people to a climax. Through my own study of Li Yang's Crazy English, I really find that there are many advantages that are helpful to English learning. Combined with my own growth experience and actual investigation, it is found that middle school students in remote mountainous areas of Guizhou ethnic minorities have poor English foundation, especially poor oral expression ability. Based on this situation and analysis, I boldly praised the advantages of Li Yang's Crazy English, effectively assisted middle school English teaching, and made an outline on this basis.

2. Preparation for data collection

Since the end of 2006, in order to complete my thesis, I have collected a lot of materials, including online papers and periodicals, library bibliographies, and most importantly, Li Yang's learning materials of Crazy English. Under the guidance of teacher Ling Hongbo, it was formally finalized in March 2007 after a series of procedures, such as reading materials, drafting an outline, investigating, writing the first draft and concluding report, and drafting and revising the graduation thesis.

3. The structure of the paper

The full text is divided into five parts, about 9000 words:

The first part is the introduction, which mainly combines the general deviation of middle school students' English foundation in remote mountainous areas of Guizhou ethnic minorities, especially the relatively poor oral expression ability, puts forward my own views, advocates Liyang English, effectively combines the characteristics and advantages of Liyang Crazy English with oral English teaching in middle schools, and comprehensively improves the overall English level of middle school students in remote mountainous areas of Guizhou.

The second part focuses on the characteristics and advantages of Li Yang Crazy English. Among them, the characteristics include the following aspects: 1, flexible class, paying attention to classroom interaction; 2. The learning process is from simple to complex, from short sentences to long sentences, from sentences to chapters, the reading speed is from slow to fast, and the training method is also unique; 3. Speak on various occasions, be good at using body language, and combine words with actions to make it more vivid; 4, the training sentence is informal (damn it! Look at your month), humor, Chinese style, no pains, no gains, etc. Advantages include six aspects: 1, reading aloud, overcoming shyness in reading; 2. Spell loudly and learn to remember in spelling; 3. Sing loudly and have fun in singing; 4. Speak loudly and find confidence in speaking; 5. Pay attention to the cultivation of non-intellectual factors. In other words, it focuses on stimulating students' enthusiasm for learning and linking learning English with life struggle. For example, "no pains, no gains" and "learning English is nothing! It's easy to conquer English! " "Hit me! Persecute me! Lord, I am a real person! " Wait; 6. Teaching materials are more in line with the reality of life. The teaching content is mostly taken from real life scenes in Europe and America, and the oral English emphasizes authentic and practical (such as is everything under control? Is everything under control? Give me a hand! Give me a hand! )。

The third part introduces the reasons for the general deviation of middle school students' English level in Guizhou. The total * * * can be summarized as the following six aspects: 1, lack of social environment conducive to foreign language teaching; 2. Disadvantages of the education system; 3. Modern teaching equipment is not complete; 4. Internal factors of students; 5. The influence of teachers' own quality and the interference of traditional teaching concepts; 6. Interference of local dialects. It is also the existence of the above-mentioned series of unfavorable factors that make the English teaching effect in middle schools in backward mountainous areas of Guizhou poor.

The fourth part is the core part of the full text, which discusses the application of Li Yang's crazy English teaching method in oral English teaching in middle schools from eight aspects. 1, the teacher's exemplary role, the classroom promotion of crazy oral training teaching. This little point mainly talks about "one-breath training method" (meaning reading as many paragraphs as possible in one breath, and after a period of training, you can finish reading the short articles that you need to change three or four tones in one breath) and "three most oral muscle training methods" (the loudest, clearest and fastest voice); 2. Set up Crazy English Corner or Crazy English Club to create a language atmosphere; 3. The magical sentence-centered theory of combining spoken English with crazy English in middle school. That is, centering on sentence structure, turn spoken English into spoken sentences (such as your favorite …? This sentence pattern can be followed by (food, recreation, vacation) and so on. From one sentence pattern to a dozen or even hundreds of sentences, which is the so-called "nuclear fission super sentence pattern, one top ten top hundred"; 4. Carry out all kinds of crazy oral English activities to stimulate students' initiative; 5. Help students build crazy emotional awareness. Emotion refers to the feeling, feeling, mood, attitude and other aspects that restrict behavior; 6, multimedia assistance, input crazy information; 7. Cultivate students' English thinking ability in crazy oral English and skillfully use body language; 8. Use crazy English gestures and five pronunciation skills to help students correct pronunciation and break through pronunciation difficulties. Gesture method: refers to playing different pronunciation parts with different gestures, following the gestures from the heart, opening your mouth to imitate and practice until you really master it correctly; The five keys of pronunciation are: long vowels and diphthongs are full, short vowels are fast and powerful, clean and neat, continuous reading is omitted, tongue biting, tongue twister training and so on, which can really help students correct pronunciation and break through pronunciation difficulties. Combined with reality, explain the necessity of advocating Li Yang's madness!

After writing this paper, I learned a lot of useful things and accumulated a lot of experience. However, due to my lack of knowledge and ability, coupled with limited time and energy, there are some shortcomings in the expression and demonstration of many contents, which are far from the expectations of teachers. Many problems need further thinking and exploration. I would like to take this opportunity to reply and sincerely hope that all teachers can put forward valuable opinions and point out my mistakes and shortcomings, and I will accept them with an open mind.
