Sử dụng ngôn ngữ hiệu quả trong diễn thuyết: Nghiên cứu trường hợp = Speeches with effective language use: A case study/ Nguyễn Thị Hằng Nga.
// Ngôn ngữ và đời sống. 2014, Số 11 (229). 2014tr.72-77 Public speaking is an important and practical skill. It also requires a lot of techniques to make successful speeches. We conducted a case study on a selected speech delivered by Hillary Clinton better understanding of language use and clearer identification of what make it effective. In terms of content, the speaker chose to say what the aidience likes (praise, attention, sympathy,etc.) and what the audience wants (health, money, huosing, jobs, education, economy, security, amongst others). In terms of rhetoric, the speaker used rhetorical questions, contasts and repetition. These techniques, which were interwoven and repeatedly used, not only functioned as strong links between ideas but also aroused great excitement among the listeners, helping them quickly and easily catch important messages the speaker intended to convey. These techniques are therefore important for language learner to acquire, which is an essential pedagogical implication of this analytical paper.

The forms of repetition in social and environmental reports: insights from Hume s notion of ‘impressions’ / Caterina Pescia, Ericka Costaa & Teerooven Soobaroyen.
// Accounting and Business Research. Volume 45, N6-7, 2015. London, Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales] Abingdon, UK : Routledge, Taylor & Francis , 2015.pages 765-800. This paper focuses on the use of repetition, both in narrative and visual forms, in social and environmental reports. It investigates the forms of repetition as a rhetorical device adopted by the preparer of a social and environmental report in helping the process of knowledge acquisition, as outlined by Hume [1739. A Treatise of Human Nature. Available from: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/4705/4705-h/4705-h.htm#link2H_4_0006]. Drawing from Hume s (1739) philosophical idea of an ‘impression’, and the work of Davison [2014a. Visual rhetoric and the case of intellectual capital. Accounting Organization and Society, 39 (1), 20–37], we classify repetitions into ‘identical’, ‘similar , and ‘accumulated’ forms. It is argued that the rationale for distinguishing between the different forms of repetition can be linked to their different potential or intensity in acting on different stimuli with a view to enhance learning. The empirical element of this study is based on the stand-alone social and environmental reports of a sample of 86 cooperative banks (CBs) in Northern Italy; the analysis of these reports indicates that repetition is widespread and that CBs use all forms of repetition, albeit to a varying extent within the different reported themes. The paper contributes to the literature by offering an alternative interpretation of repetition using an interdisciplinary perspective and by providing new insights on social and environmental reporting practices in the cooperative banking sector.
