英語短文：KTV聚會的10個小建議
英語短文：
在你的朋友圈中你是個麥霸嗎？想知道朋友們一起去K歌時有什么是需要注意和提升的嗎？小編給同學們收集了一些在KTV需要注意的K歌小建議。
1. Choose a song you have an emotional connection to, not necessarily one you think you ought to sing.
1. 要選擇一首情感上有共鳴的歌，未必要是你覺得應該唱的歌。
If you like the song and it has meaning for you, this will come across and you will make a better connection with your audience.
如果你喜歡一首歌，這首歌對你有特殊意義，你能感受的到，也能把情感更好地傳遞給聽眾。
2. If possible, practice the song ahead of time to get an idea of whether the key of the original recording works for you.
2. 如果可能的話，提前唱唱看這首歌，看看原版錄音的音調是否合適。
If not, many karaoke situations have machines that can raise or lower the key of your song.
如果不合適的話，很多KTV都可以調整樂曲的音調。
3. Your main focus in singing is telling a story.
3. 唱歌的重點在于講故事。
Spend some time with the lyrics and get an idea of what the song is about. You will make a better connection with the audience if you know what emotions you want to portray in your performance.
多揣摩一下歌詞，了解這首歌唱得到底是什么內容。如果你知道唱歌時傳達的是什么樣的情感的話，你和聽眾之間的聯系會更加緊密。
4. Focus the energy on the audience.
4. 把精力集中在聽眾上。
If you need to look at the monitor for lyrics, don't keep your attention there the entire time -- look up and at the audience as often as you comfortably can.
就算你需要看歌詞也不要一直盯著屏幕——在你覺得自在的前提下盡可能多抬頭看看觀眾。
5. If your anxiety level is high, consider singing with at least one other person.
5. 如果你很緊張，那就考慮一下和別人一起唱。
There is safety in numbers and this can be an interim step to singing solo.
人多了就能安心了，這也是開始獨唱前的過渡階段。
6. If you go to a karaoke bar it may be tempting to drink alcohol to bolster your courage.
6. 如果你去的是提供酒水的KTV，那就點些酒水壯壯膽。
Resist the temptation -- alcohol has a drying effect on the vocal mechanism and impairs your ability to tell the story of the song.
不過要抵抗誘惑——酒精會讓你的嗓子變干，這樣就沒有辦法講好歌曲的故事了。
7. Let your body reflect what you are singing about.
7. 用身體表現你在唱的內容。
8. Don't obsess on the mechanics of singing.
8. 不要過度追求唱歌技巧。
The audience would much rather hear a good story teller with a less than perfect delivery than a really good voice with no connection to the song or audience.
比起嗓音完美但沒有共鳴的演繹歌曲來說，聽眾更想聽到的是歌曲中的故事。
Movement helps to free the voice and make a better connection with the audience.
肢體動作能夠解除嗓音的禁錮，和聽眾更好地互動。
9. Eye contact is important.
9. 眼神交流很重要。
If it's uncomfortable to make contact for very long, scan the audience. Looking at different parts of the room every few seconds will make everyone feel included in your performance.
如果長時間的眼神交流讓你感到不自在，那就掃視一邊觀眾。每隔幾秒鐘看看房間中的各個位置，讓大家都感到自己也在你的表演之中。
10. Last but not least, have fun.
10. 最后一點：享受唱歌。
The more comfortable you look (even if you don't feel comfortable on the inside), the more the audience will root for you and the less likely they are to notice any less than perfect moments.
你看起來越自在(即使實際上不是這樣)，你的聽眾就會越支持你，也越不會注意那些不甚完美的時候。
