Before you write something, you need to have a clear idea of the topic, the audience, and the purpose of your writing. In this lecture, well concentrate on one of those el

17、ements, the audience. This is a very important aspect of writing. The term audience usually refers to viewers of movies and TV shows and listeners of radio programs. Here we expand it to include readers of written materials in discussions of writing activities. Why is this concept so important? (1)

18、As shown in the example in our book, the same topic, when written to different audiences, can have very different contents, structures, styles, etc. (2) Thus, the importance of a keen awareness of your audience throughout the writing process cannot be overemphasized. Audience can be examined from th

19、ree different perspectives: 1. (3) your social relations to your audience; 2. your audiences knowledge about your subject; 3. your audiences attitudes or viewpoints to the subject and your position in the writing. Lets discuss them one by one. Now, the first point, analyze your audience in terms of

20、your social relations. Whenever you write, you are interacting with other members of the society. Are you writing to a friend of yours? To a college student? To the director of your business firm? To the Admissions Office of an American college? (4) In each situation, you have a different social rel

21、ationship with your audience, and this relation has a definite impact on the shape of your writing. No one in his or her right mind would write a letter of application to the dean of the graduate school as if the dean was one of his or her buddies. The second point, analyze your audience in terms of

22、 their knowledge of the subject you are writing about. (5) This analysis is valuable, particularly in informative and explanatory writing. Suppose you are writing a paper comparing the Mid-autumn Festival and Thanksgiving Day. How much knowledge would you assume your American readers already have ab

23、out the Chinese holiday and how much about their own? Obviously, very little about the former and a whole lot about the latter. In such a paper, you want to take care not to bore your readers to death by telling them what they already know, while leaving them tantalizingly unsatisfied about what the

24、y are so eager to learn. (6) The emphasis here should be to show the striking differences and subtle parallels rather than to give exhaustively detailed information on each holiday. (7) Now, the third point, analyze your audience in terms of their attitudes or viewpoints to the subject and your posi

25、tion in the writing. (8) This analysis is vitally important in writing persuasive or argumentative essays, which is much more complex and challenging. (9) In a persuasive essay, you present reasons and arguments to convince your readers that they should accept a belief or take a position or a specif

26、ic action. For persuasive or argumentative writings, you can classify the audience into three groups: those who agree, those who are neutral or undecided, and those who disagree. When writing to an audience who already sees eye to eye with you about a controversial issue, is there much you need to d

27、o? Not much. If you are addressing an audience who already shares your view about developing and maintaining a mature and constructive relationship between China and the United States in the 21st century, all you need to do is repeat why such a relationship is in the vital interests of both countrie

28、s and of the whole world. (10) When writing to the audiences who are neutral or undecided, you have the most to do and can hope to achieve a lot. Say, you want to propose that a new financial aid system be established to help those bright students in rural and less prosperous areas of the country. Y

29、ou are concerned that with todays new tuition policy and practice, those students will be priced out of a chance for the high education they deserve so much. Some people may be undecided because they have some doubts and concerns: Where does the money needed for such aid come from? What are the spec

30、ific standards whereby to award scholarships? Are there more fair and efficient alternative solutions? (11) Once you find out why your audiences are undecided, you need to address their doubts and concerns as directly and fully as possible. You have a fairly good chance of winning them over when the

31、ir questions are answered satisfactorily. And the audiences who disagree are the most difficult to write to. Different people disagree with you for different reasons. Some of them may have already given the issue a thought and have already made a choice, therefore, it is extremely difficult to chang

32、e their minds. Others who disagree may not have had the time to think it over seriously. There are two main possible reasons why your audiences may disagree with you: 1) because they dont have the “facts“ , or because they look at the same “facts“ differently; (12) 2) because they are influenced by

33、their personal opinions, prejudices, and political or religious beliefs. (13) Once you have found out why they disagree, you can decide what the best approach to such audiences is. (14) If it is a lack of information, your job is to give them the relevant historical as well as up-to-date information

34、 as accurately as possible. (15) If it is for personal, political and religious reasons, you need to recognize them, understand them, and address them accordingly. Now, we can see that audience awareness is so crucial to the success of your writing. And in the next lecture, well discuss the writing
