当美国女太空人琼·希金波坦没有在太空中飞行和工作时，她可能会在地球上的某个地方发表演讲。
[00:12:12]Higginbotham, who grew up in Chicago and became an engineer before joining NASA, that is the National Air and Space Administration, gives about a dozen speeches a year.
希金波坦在芝加哥长大，加入美国国家航空和航天局之前是一位工程师，她每年都有很多场演讲。
[00:27:48]Each speech is different because she tailors her remarks to each audience.

[00:33:57]Through interviews and E-mails, she finds out in advance her listeners' educational level and what information they want to know.
通过访谈和电子邮件，她知道了听众的教育水平和他们想了解什么样的信息。
[00:44:14]On the subject of space walks, for example, audiences vary in their interests and how much complexity they can comprehend.
例如太空行走的主题，观众的兴趣点和理解力不同。
[00:56:06]To elementary school children, Higginbotham may discuss a problem that many kids want to know about."How do spacemen in a spacesuit eat, drink, and go to the bathroom?"
对于小学生，希金波坦会讨论很多孩子都想知道的问题：宇航员穿着宇航服是如何吃、喝、上厕所？
[01:11:15]Her answer is “the spacesuit is really a small spacecraft with room for food and water-containers, and a waste-collection system.”
她的回答是：“宇航服是一个小飞船，里面有食物、水和一个废物收集系统。
[01:24:21]To a high school audience, she might satisfy a curiosity that often arises in her pre-speech interviews with students who obviously have seen many science fiction movies.

“宇航员会以防遇到太空敌人而携带武器吗？”她的回答是：“不”。
[01:48:50]To scientists, she might provide technical details on such topics as the design of spacesuits that protects spacemen from the deadly temperature extremes of space.
对于科学家，她要讲的可能是技术细节问题。例如宇航服是如何保护宇航员免遭宇宙致命极端温度的侵害。
[02:01:29]Just as elaborate preparation is required for success in space, Higginbotham says that it's important for speakers to learn as much as possible about their listeners before a speech because every audience is different.
就像航空航天方面取得成功需要做周密的准备一样，希金波坦说演讲者在演讲前加深对听众的了解是非常重要的，因为每个人都不同。
