Junior WSD規則解讀 | 晉級與評分規則

晉級與(yu) 評價(jia)

賽前，聯賽通常會(hui) 根據“50%原則”決(jue) 定本輪比賽晉級組數。例如，有32支隊伍參賽，則晉級16強。每場比賽的晉級隊伍數量會(hui) 視參賽隊伍總數而定，常見的有32強、16強和8強。

在Junior WSD比賽過程中，裁判總是會(hui) 在比賽結束5分鍾之後當場宣布結果；裁判會(hui) 用約10分鍾宣布獲勝的隊伍與(yu) 理由。在循環賽Round 4之後，組委會(hui) 將根據團隊和辯手得分綜合計算出晉級隊伍名單。

核心評價(jia) 要素

NHSDLC Junior WSD比賽中評價(jia) 的核心要素是選手們(men) 的辯論能力，而不論其他特征。在比賽中，我們(men) 評判辯論能力的核心要素主要有三個(ge) ：

1.內(nei) 容 Content

內(nei) 容指辯手論證的力度，這也包括了反駁的質量和擊敗對方論點的能力。該項目上分數越高，意味著辯手所提出的論點擁有越高的相關(guan) 性，條理清晰，並且簡潔而富有邏輯地指明了其論點的影響力。

Content is the strength of the argumentation presented. This also covers the quality of the rebuttal and ability to defeat opposing arguments. It marks the extent to which the strength of the arguments compels judges to support or oppose the motion. It is intended to be divorced from the style with which the argument is delivered. A speaker with a high content mark will present arguments that are highly relevant, with clear explanations and logic, and be succinct in flagging the impacts of their arguments. They will be consistent and thorough in their explanation of why their set of beliefs are the strongest arguments in the debate.

2.風格Style

風格指的是提供有說服力的論點的能力，其中包含了那些可以提高表達效果的一般要素：包括辯手的聲音表達技巧、肢體(ti) 語言和修辭技巧的運用以及選手與(yu) 觀眾(zhong) 之間的連接等等。

Style is the ability to deliver arguments persuasively. There is no one particular style that will be appropriate for all speakers and all debates, just as there is no one set of arguments that will win all debates. However, it does encompass a number of general elements that improve the impact of a speech. These include how a speaker uses their voice, their use of gestures, their use of rhetorical techniques and their engagement with the audience. What is being considered is the extent to which these things are used to augment or hinder the persuasiveness of the speaker.

3.策略Strategy

在Junior WSD的比賽中，策略包括兩(liang) 個(ge) 方麵：

a）辯手對辯論結構和時長的掌控。辯手需要充實自己的陳述時間，過少或過多都將影響裁判評價(jia) 。同時，辯手的陳述中需要體(ti) 現出清晰的論證進展過程。

Structure and timing mean a speaker who fills their time and does not under or over speak. It also means having a clear progression of points within the speech which shows a clear sense of priorities in their argumentation.

b）是辯手對於(yu) 辯論問題的理解。這裏指的是辯手在辯論過程中能夠清晰地意識到在什麽(me) 時候、對於(yu) 哪些問題必須進行論證和回應（即使辯手不擅長論證該內(nei) 容），如回應時機正確，即使選手沒有進行充分的論證，裁判也將給出較高策略分（但內(nei) 容分較低）。

Understanding the issues of the debate follows on from this clear sense of understanding what the key issues in any given debate are. They will be able to understand which arguments and parts of an argument they must respond to in their speeches (even if their responses are not strong); they will understand what the important things to prove within their arguments are (even if this is not always successful). Thus, if a speaker is clearly attempting to do the correct things in terms of argumentation but not proving the things they set out, they may receive a high strategy mark and a lower content mark.

評分單

辯論結束後，評委將在ballot上注明哪支隊伍贏得了本輪比賽，並為(wei) 選手打分。前三篇演講按 60-80 分製計分，答辯演講按 30-40 分製計分。然後統計各隊的總分。
