英語演講比賽演講稿 篇1
In our daily lives, we have many choices to make, such as what to eat forsupper,what clothes to wear, or what to do on weekends. at certain times in ourlives, we need to make even more critical choices, such as which school toattend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. yes, life is amatter of choice. seemimgly, it means a choice of tangible things. but inessence, it means choosing a way of life. life is to be lived, savored, andenjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.
Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the grave threat fromthe life-and-death disease--sars. yet, even during those dreadful times, someafflicted people remained optimistic. instead of wearing neutral white masks,some people turned to colouful ones, and thus display a happy mood. and somecreative people dubbed sars to mean "smile and remain smiling." i was deeplytouched by their optimisim, nearly forgetting that we're still in a battle.people who survive these kinds of circumstances, (at some point)decide in theirminds to carry on in spite of the overwhelming odds.
Laid-off workers, typically regarded as the victims of economicadvancement, are subject to desperation that being unmeployed has brought onthem. but, encouragingly, we have witnessed some of them striving hard torebuild confidence toward life and discover new opportunities for demonstratingtheir values.
Although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoidunexpected disasters and adversities, we do have the privilege to choose to liveoptimistcally,to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.
Every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approachlife that day. as for me, i choose to be cheerful.

When I was asked about this question for the first time ,without thinking it too much ,a word flash into my mind ——DREAM ,D-R-E-A-M.People more or less dream about different things ,to be a teacher ,a doctor ,a scientist ,a businessman and so on .All these people who have dreams should be respected ,because Dreams make the world go around .We grow great by our dreams.All big men are great dreamers in their youth.Everyone has a dream ,and everything starts as one’s daydream.
Martin Luther king had a dream.He desired for a future where blacks and whites would coexist harmoniously as equals.By speaking the way he did,he educated,he inspired,he informed not just the people there,but people throughout America and unborn generations.He pushed forward the pace of American black society towards the racial equality .
Thomas Edison had a dream.He dreamed of a lamp that could be operated by electricity,began where he stood to put his dream into action,and despite more than ten thousand failures,he stood by that dream until he made it a physical reality!And today,his dream lights up the world at night.
Walt Disney had a dream.This,in itself,wasn't unusual -- he was always dreaming.He dreamed of making the first animated feature film,and of building an amusement park that parents could enjoy right along with their kids.Walt Disney empowered his dream and today,Disneyland,Disney world and Disney theme parks attract around the world thrill millions of visitors each and every year.
John F.kennedy had a dream.He wanted to land a man on the moon and return him safely to earth so as to restore faith in the American way of life.John F.kennedy empowered his dream and 8 years later Neil Armstrong stepped on the face of the moon.The moon landing certainly gave Americans new found confidence.
Dream --- A word that has changed the world Yes ,I would say so ,wouldn’t you
Youth is a special life relay station ,the growth with the worry ,the life feeling become aware happily with the dream ,collected a unique youth melody in here .
We decide.We choose.And as we decide and choose,so are our lives formed.In the end,forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.And most importantly ,You are the one you choose to be.
It is easy to waste our lives ,our days ,our minutes .It is easy to exist than living .So hold fast to your dreams,For if dreams die,life is a broken-winged bird,That cannot fly.Hold fast to your dreams,For when dreams go,life is a barren field,Frozen with snow.
I hope you everyone he

My Attitude towards to Marks
For our students, marks is above everything. Teachers will judge us from ourmarks. With marks we can be enrolled into junior middle schools. With marks, wecan be enrolled into senior middle schools. With marks we can be enrolled intocollege. With marks we can be enrolled into postgraduate and doctrine studies.Still with marks we can be graded and be allowed to go abroad for furtherstudies. Our parents will be strict with us with the marks. Our society judge usfrom marks. However, sometimes we students compare one another with marksdirectly. We are completely controlled by marks. We like them and we feel sorryfor them. But what attitude towards our marks should we take?
Truly, marks functions cannot be underestimated. In terms of test in ourstudy, marks are fair and real. That is the reason why we say "Everyone is equalbefore marks. "
However, I think marks are the sole standard to judge the success or failureof students in exams. Sometimes, marks more than ten or less than one or two inour exams comparing with others mean not everything. The success or failure inexams will be influenced by experience on the spot and the examinee’s healthetc. Once in a while one cannot fail in exams. " Success or failure is commonsense for military. " I think everyone is familiar with the famous saying. Don’tyou think such will be the case with our study? In exams, one cannot be "never-defeated general" . Even though one will be very good in everyday study,he cannot succeed in every exam sometimes. We can get proof from the fact thatthe very best one we call "Number One Scholar" in the entrance exams for collegeand ordinary middle school and specialized secondary school over the years isnot eminent above all others nor top student in every study.
As a matter of fact, "high marks" and "ability" are not unified. Some timeago, a new phrase " high marks but poor competence" came into being. Once Ihappened to meet such a teacher as this .It is said that the teacher justgraduated from a far-famed key university. But his teaching result is much lessthan that of the one who just graduated from a not-well-renowned college. Whenlecturing, the teacher only repeated what the text-books says, which was verydull so the his students’ interest in learning was not aroused. His teaching wasshort of unity of teaching and learning. At present there is a fact that we knowa few brilliant and top college graduates are not qualified for their posts. Thereason for it may be lack of the ability to combine knowledge learnt from bookswith pragmatics in their work. Students of this kind will be successful in everyexam but they will be able to use freely their knowledge in their posts. Don’tyou think it waste training such persons for the country?
To sum up from the above, I can say marks are not absolutely authoritativefor some. If we neglect training and developing the students’ ability andcompetence and if we only seek for the high marks, we will be absolutely wrong.We should take an objective attitude towards the marks. Neither should weneglect them nor should we overvalue them like a God.

Accept the Gift from Life
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Today I’m glad that I’m standing here talking to you all. As the title given,I am going to talk you about a way of treating people and things in life. Myspeech here basically includes 2 parts, in the former of which I‘ll describe youthe present occasion we teenagers are in., as well as the reason behind. Thenit’s about the several opinions of mine toward the case above.
Undoubtedly, every one of us has stepped into adolescence, a period of timewhere the most
exciting and mysterious changes take place. Boys, apparently become moreambitious. Girls, in some ways, start to dream and become more sensitive aboutthe world. All in all, as if our emotions become much stronger, somehow we’realways trapped in circles and struggling against something that can’t be changedanyway. We complain about how fragile our friendship is, how little people knowabout us, how unfair the life is,etc. It seems that every time we fail, we blameit to the tough conditions we’re in, while never notice a problem insideourselves, that we’re never satisfied.
Let’s just imagine that there was an old lady. What she sees was herneighbors’ being mean again while not how kind they were when they took care ofher sick body. What she saw was her dog’s annoying barking while not how muchloyalty it had shown.What she saw was always so depressing that it finallyturned her into an unpleasant person. Think about how our life would be if westand in her shoe.
Why don’t we focus our attention on how much we’ve already got in stead? Youknow it’s really simple to do as there’s a tremendous amount of examples. Likethe popular Jetpack Joy Ride on your Iphone, you can enjoy it whenever you like,whereas in some poor area people don’t even know such thing as Iphone.
Actually we should be thankful about the richness we’ve got, thankful thatwith each sunrise taking place we don’t need to starve to call it a day,thankful that the people we love are still in health, that we still got much tohold on. As a saying on website,” The world is tough, but I’m tougher.” Whatdoesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
Every day is a gift from life, all we need is to accept it, cherish thelessons life has taught us, so as to achieve our goal with high spirit. In thisway, someday when we leave the world, we leave no regrets.
Thank you for listening.

My Views on Receiving Education
In my early years, I did not see the value of education.
When I was going on thirteen, I started to run my own shop. From then on, I worked hard to become a successful businessman.
One day I realized the importance of the English language in the business world and started taking night classes.
I was able to communicate well with foreign customers after two years of English study. But I started to feel that, in the long run, having a limited knowledge of English was not enough to make my business successful. I knew that only a well- rounded education could guarantee my success in the future.
When I was eighteen, I had to make a decision to continue doing business or go back to school. There was one obstacle keeping me from getting an advanced education. I had only completed elementary school up to that point. I then went back to senior high school after four months of tutoring in different subjects. Being at school for the first time after so many years was somewhat embarrassing because my classmates were at least two or three years younger than I. I concluded that my age did not matter. The important thing was getting into college.
I took the College Entrance Exams. Although my math exam result was only one point below the required score. I never gave up hope. The following year, I took it again and received the highest score in my city. Achieving such an amazing result gave me encouragement and courage necessary to continue my education to the next step.
I am now in my second year of college and know that it is never too late to learn. My passion for studying and improving myself will never come to a halt as long as I continue to live.
“Live and Learn.” is the motto I have adopted. I believe with an education I will succeed. So, if you are wondering whether education is important, don’t hesitate a moment to step up and seize the opportunity.
我對(duì)教育的看法
在我小的時(shí)候,我不覺得教育有什么價(jià)值。在13歲的時(shí)候,我開始經(jīng)營我自己的商店。從那時(shí)開始,我為成為一個(gè)成功的商人而努力工作。
一天,我意識(shí)到了英語對(duì)做生意的重要性并且開始上夜校。
在經(jīng)過兩年的英語學(xué)習(xí)之后,我已經(jīng)能夠很流利的和外國顧客交流。但我逐漸意識(shí)到,從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來看,我現(xiàn)在僅有的英語知識(shí)無法使我的生意蓬勃發(fā)展。我知道只有淵博的知識(shí)是我未來成功的保證。
18歲的時(shí)候,我必須在繼續(xù)從商和重新回學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)之間做出選擇。當(dāng)時(shí)我僅有的小學(xué)學(xué)歷成為我接受高等教育的一大障礙。經(jīng)過4個(gè)月各門功課的惡補(bǔ),我又回到了高中。多年后再次回到學(xué)校,讓我有些尷尬。因?yàn)槲业耐嗤瑢W(xué)至少比我小2至3歲。然而在我看來,年齡不是問題,重要的是能上大學(xué)。
我參加了高考。雖然我的數(shù)學(xué)只比分?jǐn)?shù)線低了一分。但我沒有放棄。第二年,我又參加了高考并取得了當(dāng)?shù)氐牡谝幻。得到這樣一個(gè)令人欣喜的結(jié)果,給了我進(jìn)一步深造的動(dòng)力和膽量。
現(xiàn)在,我上大學(xué)二年級(jí),也知道學(xué)無止境。只要我活者,我對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)和自我充實(shí)的熱情就不會(huì)減退。
“活到老,學(xué)到老”是我的座右銘。我堅(jiān)信只有學(xué)習(xí)才會(huì)使我成功。因此,如果你對(duì)接受教育的重要性有所懷疑,不要猶豫,勇敢的邁出第一步,這樣幸運(yùn)之神便會(huì)光顧你。

What Is Real Beauty?
It is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty. Everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
Today in China,with the rising of our living standard, people's requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly. Some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks. But it seems to me,all these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
In my opinion,we shouldn't only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty. As we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more important. This was confirmed by a famous Russian writer in words much like this: “A person is not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely. ”
Here, I'd like to quote two typical instances and I'm sure, my dear friends,from them you'll find out what real beauty is.
Recently I learned from the radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer. She is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song.“Devotion of Love”。 Not long ago,she was invited to Zhejiang Province to give performance. The moment she was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward. Worse still,after her request was satisfied, she didn't begin to sing at once. Instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece. Thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour. So when she at last showed up and started to sing “Devotion of Love”,a man rose up from his seat and shouted at her,“You don't have any devotion of love. You are not qualified to sing this song ! ”Hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man. At this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.
How disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this! It is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.

We often hear people say, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A personwho believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how manytimes he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is animportant one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.
One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieveanything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at somethingnew, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if wealways give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and growas people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from ourmistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again, the lesson wehave learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work toreach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeedin other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin todoubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that wedo not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end ornot, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better,more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have non chance ofattaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that wewill succeed one day.
Thank you !

As a student, we have experienced many exam. In this in, not failure and success. Facing the two completely different results, what should we do?
In fact, for success, this only represent the past, we should not be proud, people to front, the well now, hold the result, don't make now in the next test defeat. Faced with it, depression is completely unnecessary and draw lessons, to reflect on, still not night, try to start all over again, I believe in the correct understand the reasons, not only will return after success, still can accumulate experience, and know some ways to face setbacks , make oneself become stronger. In a word, whether success or failure, the most important is mentality, put calm, let it go.
There are many students afraid of exam, that, after this I believe the exam for them, not of fear, but the challenge!

A Scene to Remember
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:
Today I would like to begin with a story. There was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a census about mountain gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of poaching and being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we've ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddled their babies.
Yes, that's a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Diana Fossey, who spent most of her lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.
To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our eco-environment.
Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur - natural scenes aren't natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges are devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.
All these appalling facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been eroding our resources. Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the United Nations has made 20xx the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the world's attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.
Now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations are receiving donations - big notes, small notes or even coins - from housewives, plumbers, ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and invalids. Some of them cannot afford to send the money but they do. These are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals, who are suffering from ecological damage in their neighborhood. Why? Because they care. Because they still want their Mother Nature back. Because they know it still belongs to them.
This kind of feeling that I have, ladies and gentlemen, is when it feels like it, smells like it, and looks like it , it's all coming from a scene to be remembered, a scene to recall and to cherish.
The other night, as I saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs. I found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to something else, someplace else, a place remembered, a place untouched, a field of grass where no one seemed to have been except the deer.
And all those unforgettable scenes strengthened the feeling that it's time for us to do something, for our own and our coming generation.
Once again, I have come to think of Mrs. Diana Fossey because it is with her spirit, passion, courage and strong sense of our ecoenvironment that we are taking our next step into the world.
And no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our minds, there's always a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it.
Thank you very much.

whether there's afterlife, the answer has never been the same. the atheists deny after life, believing that our life is no more than from the cradle to the grave. they may care about their illustrious names after death; they may feel attached to the affection of their offspring, but they never lay their hopes on their afterlife. they may also say that good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil, but they don't really believe any retribution in their after life.
however, in the religious world or among the superstitious people, the belief in afterlife is very popular. they do not only believe in afterlife, but thousands of reincarnations as well. in the mysterious world, there are the paradise and the hell, the celestial beings and the gods, the buddha and the bodhisattvas.
maybe they really believed it, or maybe they just wanted to make use of people's veneration, the ancient emperors always declared that they were the real dragons, the sons of god, while the royal ministers claimed to be the reincarnations of various constellations. but can the stars reincarnate?
many people burn incense and kowtow, do good deeds and strive for virtues, not just for the present, but mainly to let god see their sincerity so as to be reborn into a better afterlife, or to achieve the highest enlightenment after several lives of practice. they do believe in afterlife. but i can't help asking: suppose there were no afterlife, would you still do good deeds and strive for virtues? and if god does not see what you are doing, would you still be so upright and selfless? if you work, not for serving the public and liberating the others, but just for a better afterlife of your own, isn't it a little too selfish? comparing with this kind of believers, those who don't believe in afterlife, but still keep doing good deeds, are the most sincere and honest philanthropists, because they do them not for themselves but for other.
you may wonder if i believe in afterlife. my answer is: i know nothing about my previous life, so i dare not make improper comments on afterlife. but i do hope there's afterlife! because our present life is so short that so many things slip away before our proper understanding. i have so many dreams, so many wishes, so many ambitions, as well as so many regrets and concerns. if there were no afterlife, all of them will remain unrealized!
i'm not contented with the present commonplace life, i'm very much attached to the affections that should have been mine but have been washed away by the hurrying time, and i yearn for the perfection and maturity if i could start all over again. so believe it or not, i'd rather there were afterlife.

Now, I'm coming to another true story. It's about a poor, ordinary looking old woman. She was a widow without any children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps. However,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up. Every day she labored from morning till night. In order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood. She got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
When asked why she chose to burden herself with so many children,she smiled and simply answered,“Oh,I love children and I like to have their company. ”
Though the old woman was poor materially, she was full of affection and rich in spirit. She was loved dearly by her children. She was also highly appreciated by the local government, and truly respected by people in her community.
Maybe you can't help wondering, “What makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary?” It is nothing else but her inner beauty, her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding. What a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer.
So,to answer the question “What is real beauty?”,I declare definitely,it is the beauty lying in one's heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deeds,that is,the inner heauty!

love has magical power that can exploit people's potential abilities, bring people's positive factors into full play, and provide people with the courage to face trials and hardships, to go through life and death, and even to risk universal condemnation. even in the ancient feudal society, some people were courageous enough to carry on clandestine love affairs. the examples in point were the courageous ones who dared to love the concubines of the emperors or the children of their foes. love also has miraculous power which can startle the universe and move the gods by attracting the heavenly celestials coming down to earth ( the love story of the cowboy and the weaving girl ),and by turning ghosts into human ( strange tales of liao-zhai ),love can transcend age and generation (dr. sun yat-sen and madam song qingling; luxun and xu guangping).love can show contempt for all conventions and prejudices; love can heal wounds and cure diseases, and love can readjust people's state of mind. of course, the result would be the opposite once it hurts.
great men yearn for true love even more than ordinary people. since the ancient times, so many heroes couldn't help falling into the trap of love that the sex-trap has been regarded as one of the 36 stratagems in military tactics. fuchai, the king of the wu state, couldn't be spared of this trap, and generals dongzhuo and lubu fell deeply into it while xiangyu, the king of the western chu state , bid farewell to his beloved concubine in tears. people may have to pay very high price, even their illustrious name for the love they long for even though it may last for only a very short time. nonetheless no one can tear himself away from love. people often say that their earthly affinity is not yet finished, but in fact it is the love affinity that is the most difficult to finish.

Sports are more than competitions. To me, they mean growth under the care of others. I learned this the hard way.
I used to be very shy and often felt lonely. Although I did well in all the academic subjects, I was afraid of physical education. My classmates often laughed at me.
“Look at that girl,” they said. “Her feet don’t leave the ground when she runs!”
Their words embarrassed me. Moreover, whenever the teacher organized some competitive games, no one in the class liked to have me as their partner or team member. As a result, I often ended up looking at others enjoy their games.
Things would go on like that if not for a sports meet in my high school. By mistake, my name was put on the list of those who would compete in the women’s 1500 meters race. By the time people found the mistake, it was too late to change.
My desk-mate was a natural athlete. She said to me, “I couldn’t run that race in your place, because I’ve signed up for three items already.” Other athletic girls of the class said the same.
I was utterly dumbfounded. 1500 meters! Running against the best runners from other classes! And in front of students of the entire school! It would be the worst nightmare I’d ever have!
“You still have time to catch up because there is still one month before the sports meet,” they all said this to me, including my teacher.
My desk-mate patted me on the shoulder, “Cool! You will run for our class! And we will do training together.” Yes, this is not just for myself, but for my class too, I said to myself. But still, 1500 meters to me was like Mount Everest to a beginning climber. I had no idea even how to start my preparation.
Fortunately, my desk-mate gave me a hand. Every afternoon after class, several of us ran together. When the fear of being laughed at struck me, I saw others running right beside me. They gave me strengths. While we were running, some others would stand by the tracks cheering for us.
One month certainly couldn’t make me a good runner. But when I was standing behind the start line, I no longer felt lonely or afraid. I saw my classmates standing by the tracks waving at me as if about to run beside me.
With the shot of the starting gun, I dashed out and ran as fast as I could, as if it were a 200-meter race. Soon I was out of breath and slowed down. Other runners passed me one by one, and gradually I had no idea how many of them were still behind me. My legs were getting heavier and heavier, and I might fall down at any moment. However, I suddenly heard my classmates chanting my name. My desk-mate even ran along the tracks beside me and cheered for me at the same time, just like the month-long training we did together.
As expected, I was almost the last to cross the finish line. Immediately, my classmates held my arms and urged me to walk on my feet and not to sit down. I was surrounded, with all kinds of drinks handed to me. I felt a kind of warmth I had never felt before. Even though I was almost the last to finish the race, I was full of confidence that I would improve in the future.
That sports meet was an unforgettable experience. The memory of my classmates cheering for me, holding my arms and handing me drinks stays fresh on my mind. Sports are no longer about winning or losing. They give me a lot of confidence, both confidence in my fellow students and confidence in my own potential. I am no longer lonely, no longer afraid. Sports have brought me close to my classmates and helped us grow together.
Now, I participate in the sports meet every year. Even if I am not competing, I would help my classmates with their practice, just like the way my desk-mate and others ran with me.
體育比賽越來越多。對(duì)我來說,他們的意思是在別人的照顧下成長(zhǎng)。我學(xué)會(huì)了這個(gè)艱難的方式。
我曾經(jīng)是很害羞,經(jīng)常感到孤獨(dú)。雖然我做得很好,在所有的學(xué)科,我是害怕體育教育。我的同學(xué)經(jīng)常嘲笑我。
“看那個(gè)女孩,”他們說。“當(dāng)她運(yùn)行的時(shí)候她的腳不離開地面!“
他們的話使我感到尷尬。而且,每當(dāng)老師組織了一些有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)性的比賽,在班上沒有人喜歡把我當(dāng)他們的伙伴或團(tuán)隊(duì)成員。因此,我經(jīng)常結(jié)束看別人享受他們的游戲。
如果不是我的高中的一個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì),事情會(huì)繼續(xù)下去。錯(cuò)誤地,我的名字被列在那些將參加女子1500米比賽的人名單上。人們發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤,太晚了。
我的同桌是個(gè)天生的運(yùn)動(dòng)員。她對(duì)我說:“我不能在你的地方跑,因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)報(bào)名參加了三個(gè)項(xiàng)目。”。
我完全被驚呆了。1500米!與其他班上最好的賽跑選手賽跑!而在整個(gè)學(xué)校的學(xué)生面前!這將是我曾經(jīng)有過的最糟糕的噩夢(mèng)!
“你還有時(shí)間趕上,因?yàn)檫有一個(gè)月前的運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì),”他們都對(duì)我說,包括我的老師。
我的同桌輕輕地拍了拍我的肩膀,“酷!你將為我們班競(jìng)選!我們會(huì)一起做的,“是的,這不僅僅是為了我自己,也為了我的課,我對(duì)自己說。但是,1500米對(duì)我來說就像是珠峰的一個(gè)開始攀登者。我甚至不知道如何開始我的準(zhǔn)備。
幸運(yùn)的是,我的同桌給了我一只手。每天下午放學(xué)后,我們幾個(gè)人一起跑。當(dāng)我害怕被嘲笑時(shí),我看到別人在我身邊奔跑。他們給了我力量。當(dāng)我們?cè)诒寂軙r(shí),有些人會(huì)站在軌道上為我們喝彩。
一個(gè)月肯定不能讓我成為一個(gè)好賽跑者。但是當(dāng)我站在起跑線后,我不再感到孤獨(dú)或害怕。我看到我的同學(xué)們站在鐵軌旁,好像在向我跑來跑去。
我用槍打了一槍,沖出去,跑得很快,好像是200米賽跑。很快我就喘不上氣,放慢了速度。其他的賽跑者一個(gè)一個(gè)地從我身邊經(jīng)過,漸漸地,我不知道他們中有多少人在我身后。我的腿越來越重了,我隨時(shí)都可能跌倒。然而,我突然聽到我的同學(xué)們唱著我的名字。我的同桌甚至在我的身邊跑過,在同一時(shí)間為我喝彩,就像我們?cè)谝黄鸬哪且粋(gè)月的訓(xùn)練。
正如所料,我?guī)缀跏亲詈笠粋(gè)越過終點(diǎn)線。立刻,我的同學(xué)們抱著我的胳膊,催促我走在我的腳邊,而不是坐下來。我被包圍了,有各種各樣的飲料遞給我。我感覺到了一種從未有過的溫暖。即使我?guī)缀跏亲詈笠粋(gè)完成比賽,我充滿了信心,我會(huì)提高在未來。
那次運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)是一次難忘的經(jīng)歷。我的同學(xué)們?yōu)槲覛g呼,抱著我的胳膊,遞給我一杯酒,我的心都在新鮮。體育不再是關(guān)于贏得或失去。他們給了我很大的信心,都對(duì)我的同學(xué)信心和我自己的信心。我不再孤單,不再害怕。體育把我?guī)У轿业耐瑢W(xué)們,幫助我們一起成長(zhǎng)。
現(xiàn)在,我每年參加運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)。即使我不在競(jìng)爭(zhēng),我會(huì)幫助我的同學(xué)與他們的做法,就像我的同桌和其他人一起跑。

"To catch a thief!" shouted Jim. "No matter how fast he may run, I'll catchhim. I'll bet you fivedollars!"
在加利福尼亞的卡拉維拉斯縣,有個(gè)人名叫吉姆?斯邁里。他好打賭,見什么賭什么。要是有人跟他說“早上好”,他會(huì)說,這天早上不怎么樣,不信就打個(gè)賭。只要有賽馬和斗雞,他都要去賭。在哪一邊下注他不在乎,有機(jī)會(huì)賭就行。
有一天,吉姆見到一個(gè)來到卡拉維拉斯縣的陌生人,就把自己的一只青蛙給他看,說這是卡拉維拉斯全縣跳得最快最遠(yuǎn)的青蛙,不信就打個(gè)賭,賭40塊錢。陌生人說他看不出那只蛙有什么非凡之處,如果他手頭有一只蛙,就賭一賭。聽了這話,吉姆就把自己的青蛙交給陌生人看管,出去為陌生人找一只蛙來。他不在的時(shí)候,陌生人掏出一口袋鉛彈,掰開青蛙嘴,把鉛彈灌了進(jìn)去。
不久吉姆就給陌生人帶了一只青蛙回來。兩只青蛙在地上擺好,然后各人將各自的青蛙輕輕一推。陌生人的青蛙一下子就跳起來,跳得好快好遠(yuǎn)。但吉姆的蛙卻呆在那里紋絲不動(dòng),像釘在地上似的。吉姆無奈,只得交出40塊錢。陌生人拿了錢就走了。吉姆把自己的蛙拿起來,覺得沉甸甸的。他把蛙倒提起來一抖,鉛彈掉了出來。他知道自己上了當(dāng),就像瘋子似的去追陌生人。
正跑著,一個(gè)朋友瞧見他,不問他風(fēng)風(fēng)火火地去干什么。
“去抓賊!”他吼道,“無論他跑得有多快,我都要追上他。不信打5塊錢的賭!”

Good morning, my honorable judges:
I feel so happy to have the chance to make a speech. The title of my speech is “Protect the Environment”. I hope you will like it.
Everybody knows waste paper and used coke cans are discarded everywhere. You might have seen plastic bags flying in the sky and getting caught in the trees when the wind blows or maybe you have seen old cans floating in the rivers. Our environment is the place which we live, but it is being ruined by us. There is a story about a house and trees. It is said that a man’s house was surrounded by a lot of trees. Though the wind was strong, that man could have a good rest under the trees. How comfortable the life was! One day, that man wanted to enlarge his house, so he cut down all the trees. Then the autumn came without the protection. The strong wind blew the roof of the house into the sky. The whole house was gone with the wind. What a pity! But that’s the price people have to pay for destroying in the ecology balance.
People shouldn’t be short-sighted. Protecting the environment is everyone’s task. As you know, there are four kinds of pollution. They are air pollution, water pollution, waste pollution and noise pollution. But what can we do to solve the pollution? I think, first, we can make cars that don’t pollute the environment. Second, we can try to use less water and make sure that we do not pollute the water. Third, we should not throw rubbish in the parks. We can pick up rubbish if we see it. Fourth, we can live far from the noise.
The air, water and the whole atmosphere directly influenced our lives, such as the air, people may cough and it will lead to cancer. So we must try our best to keep the world clean and tidy. You might ask yourself, “Have I ever picked up some rubbish and thrown it into a dustbin? Have I ever collected waste paper or bottles for recycling?” If your answers are “Yes”, it means that you have already done something useful to improve the environment.
In order to make the environment clean, let’s join our hands together to make the world better.
Thank you!

the vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us.
death. old age. are words without a meaning. that paby us like the idea air which we regard not. others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed life“, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies. as in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward-
bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!
and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.

Knowing the Consequences of Choice
Over the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute. Right before I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channels we had already had. In prime time at night, they all had interesting shows. Therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and I-had to argue over what to watch. Finally, we agreed that we should watch the "most interesting" programme... If we
could agree what that was.
However, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had TV, there were only one or two channels available. The increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.
Fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one colour. Today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.
Fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers. Today, we read English newspapers like the China Daily and the 21st Century, as well as various Chinese newspapers.
Fifteen years ago, English majors took only courses in language and literature. Today, we also study Western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.
The emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in China's history; an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the Chinese nation. We enjoy the abundance of choice. But this has not come easily.
About 150 years ago, China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats. It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. The policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.
Like others of my age, I'm too young to have experienced the time when the Chinese people had no right to choose. However, as the next century draws near, it is time to ask: What does choice really mean to us young people?
Is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? Is choice an empty promise that never materializes? Or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?
First, I would like to say: To choose means to claim opportunities.
I am a third-year English major. An important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. I can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. I can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. Actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in China.
Indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. I would love to work in such big cities as Beijing or Shanghai or Shenzhen. I would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. I would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced. I would also love to put down roots in central and western China, which is underdeveloped, but holds great potential.
All of these sound good. But they are only possibilities. To those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, I would like to say: To choose means to accept challenge. To us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition. In the next century, competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins.
With increasing international exchanges, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world. This is calling for a higher level of our personal development.
Fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage. But today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone.
Given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination.
As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
Nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life. But it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions.
Economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health.
To those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, I would like to say, To choose means to take responsibility. When we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: "It's just my own business. " As policy makers of the next century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us.
The traditional Chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family. To me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programmes. Rather, it is the whole of the human family. As I am making my choices, I will not forget the smile of my teacher when I correctly spelled out the word "China" for the first time, I will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of Jiangxi Province. I will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in Bosnia, Chechnya and Somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty. All these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family. At different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective. Now as I am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it can lead a peaceful and prosperous life.
選擇的重要性
去年春節(jié)期間,我陷入過一場(chǎng)家庭紛爭(zhēng)。在我回家之前,我們家的電視除了已有的14個(gè)頻道外又增加了四個(gè)衛(wèi)星頻道。晚上的黃金時(shí)間,每個(gè)頻道的節(jié)目都很精彩.結(jié)果,我們一家五口(父母,兩個(gè)姐姐和我)為了選臺(tái)而爭(zhēng)執(zhí)起來。最后,我們決定應(yīng)當(dāng)看“最有意思”的節(jié)目——如果我們?cè)谑裁词?ldquo;最有意思”上可以認(rèn)同的話。
不過我們?nèi)记宄赜浀,買了電視后的好長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間里,只有一兩個(gè)頻道可供選擇。電視頻道的增多反映出我們生活中的一個(gè)重大變化:選擇余地的擴(kuò)大。
20xx年前,我們身著同樣的款式,單一的色調(diào)。而如今,紛繁的花色和眾多的式樣讓我們挑得眼花繚亂。
20xx年前,我們幾乎無報(bào)可讀。而如今,除了大大小小的中文報(bào)紙,我們還讀上了《中國日?qǐng)?bào)》、《21世紀(jì)報(bào)》這樣的英文報(bào)紙。
20xx年前,英語專業(yè)的學(xué)生只能選語言與文學(xué)課程。而如今,我們還學(xué)習(xí)西方文化,新聞,商務(wù),國際關(guān)系,甚至還有計(jì)算機(jī)課程。
選擇的涌現(xiàn)標(biāo)志著中國進(jìn)入了一個(gè)嶄新的時(shí)代,一個(gè)充滿多樣化的時(shí)代,一個(gè)物質(zhì)與精神都愈加豐富的時(shí)代,一個(gè)中華民族獲得新生的時(shí)代。
我們?yōu)檫x擇之多而歡呼雀躍,同時(shí)也深深地感到這一切來之不易。
一個(gè)半世紀(jì)之前,在西方大炮、戰(zhàn)艦的威通下,中國被迫打開了國門。經(jīng)過祖祖輩輩的抗?fàn)幣c犧牲,我們才最終贏得了當(dāng)家作主的機(jī)會(huì)。改革開放這個(gè)正確的抉擇使一切發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化。
我和其他同齡人一樣,太年輕了、沒有經(jīng)歷過中國人喪失選擇權(quán)的歲月。但是,隨著下個(gè)世紀(jì)的腳步越走越近,我們是該們心自間了:選擇,對(duì)于我們青年一代,到底意味著什么?
選擇,是場(chǎng)靠?jī)e幸來獲勝的游戲嗎?是句不用兌現(xiàn)的空話嗎?抑或是種讓人知難而退的困境?
首先,我認(rèn)為,選擇意味著抓住機(jī)遇。
我是英語專業(yè)三年級(jí)學(xué)生,我所面臨的一個(gè)重大選擇當(dāng)然是畢業(yè)后的去向。我可以攻讀碩士學(xué)位,或在國內(nèi),或在國外。我可以走上工作崗位,做名教師,翻譯,記者,編輯或外交家.實(shí)際上,雙向選擇的體制在我面前鋪開了通向各行各業(yè)的大道。
說真的,這個(gè)選擇并不好做。我愿意在像北京、上海、深圳這樣的大都市里工作,我也盼著能回到雖不那么發(fā)達(dá)卻使我倍感親切的故鄉(xiāng)。我希望可以留在生活節(jié)奏快,令人興奮的沿海地帶,我也愿意扎根于廣炭的中西部地區(qū),那里雖然條件艱苦,卻有極大的發(fā)展?jié)摿Α?/p>
所有這一切聽上去令人振奮,但它們畢竟只是可能性。有些人面對(duì)五花八門的選擇挑得眼花繚亂,我要告訴他們:選擇就意味著接受挑戰(zhàn)。
對(duì)于我們青年一代,挑戰(zhàn)常以竟?fàn)幍男问匠霈F(xiàn)。到下個(gè)世紀(jì),競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者將不僅只是其他大學(xué)畢業(yè)生,更有各行各業(yè)不同年齡層的人們。
隨著國際交流的不斷增多,我們得面對(duì)來自整個(gè)外部世界日益激烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng),這就對(duì)我們個(gè)/、的發(fā)展提出了更高的要求。
20xx年前,懂門外語或會(huì)用計(jì)算機(jī)是個(gè)優(yōu)越條件。但今天,隨著受教育面的拓寬,以上的知識(shí)也成了每個(gè)人必備的條件。
在這種形勢(shì)下,即便最細(xì)小的選擇也要求我們具有極大的智慧和自主精神。
當(dāng)我們面對(duì)選擇不斷增強(qiáng)自己的主動(dòng)性時(shí),每一次選擇的結(jié)果也同樣變得愈加重要。
比方說,核能可以提高人民的生活水平,可它同樣也能毀滅千百萬人的生命財(cái)產(chǎn)。
經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展使我們富裕起來,卻也給我們的空氣、水、健康帶來了嚴(yán)重危害。有些人對(duì)選擇的后果毫不在乎,我要對(duì)他們說:選擇還意味著承擔(dān)責(zé)任。我們替自己做選擇時(shí),不能隨口一句“這不關(guān)別人的事”。作為下個(gè)世紀(jì)的決策者,我們必須承擔(dān)對(duì)和我們共同擁有這個(gè)地球的人們所負(fù)的責(zé)任。 傳統(tǒng)的中華文化教育我們,要勃奮學(xué)習(xí),努力工作,以榮耀家門。然而我認(rèn)為,這個(gè)家門并不只指諸如我的那個(gè)爭(zhēng)看電視的五口小家。更確切地說,它指的是整個(gè)人類這個(gè)大家庭。當(dāng)我為自己的未來做出選擇時(shí),我不會(huì)忘記自己第一次正確讀出“China"這個(gè)單詞時(shí)老師臉上的笑容。我也不會(huì)忘記在我們的幫助下重返校園的江西山區(qū)的孩子們興奮的臉龐。我更不會(huì)忘記飽受戰(zhàn)火、饑荒、貧困蹂蹦的波斯尼亞、車臣、索馬里,不會(huì)忘記那里成千上萬的婦女兒童淚水模糊的雙眼。
所有這些我認(rèn)識(shí)或不認(rèn)識(shí)的人們組成了人類這個(gè)大家庭。他們從不同的時(shí)空中走進(jìn)了我的生活,開拓了我的視野,F(xiàn)在,我將為自己做出抉擇,該是為使他們的生活變得美好而奮斗的時(shí)候了。因?yàn)橹挥挟?dāng)每個(gè)人都過上和平、富足的生活,世界才能成為大家的樂園.

Failure is the mother of success. Sometimes people have to cope with many mistakes and failures in order to reach the successful finals. While others might succumb to failure, they tend to retreat and give in their efforts. Success often provides confidence and satisfaction, nevertheless failure companies with bitter, saddness, and suffering. It seems people have to learn through each experience, as success doesn't always falls from heaven.
I remembered I used to fail on my vocabury test when I was in high school. I had problem to memorize new words which got lloose each day. I almost decided to give up English, but was obliged to one of my neighbour classmates who kept on sending small sheet for me. In the end of the semester, I found I had finished my vocabulary book which became a work force in reading English. I then realized that a new word came and left our brains for several times. Nobody is born as genius for success. Success tends to arrive after a serial of trials and failures.
Of course, success brings confidence and victory. But, life is not always easy and comfortable. There are more difficulties than eases in the real life. It is likely that we have to face some failures ahead. Therefore, those who learn how to deal and endure failures will taste their success eventually.

Good afternoon, dear teachers. I’m very glad to be here to have a speech. The topic of my speech is <the spirit of sports>.
As far as I’m concerned, I’m a sheer amateur of sports, being fascinated by swimming, running, mountaineering and so on. I couldn’t agree with these perspectives from people who dislike sports, because you’ll feel greatly relieved after being drenched in sweats by sports. Sports can also help you forget your worries and stress, feeling unprecedented relaxed.
As is known, a healthy body is extraordinarily crucial. Moreover physical exercise undeniably exerts a far-reaching influence on keeping ourselves fit. In taking part in out-door sports, we are closer to nature and can take in fresh air. The beauty of nature will keep us clear-headed, which is essential to our health. Besides sports can stimulate the circulation of blood and help to excrete the wastes in the body. It also can work up our appetite and activate or digestion. In a word, sports can give rise to a strong body for us.
In contemporary society, with the increasing focus on health, people in ever expanding numbers join the trend of doing sports and begin to accept more and more sorts of fashionable sports, ranging from hiking to diving. From this phenomenon, we can see not only do sports play a significant role in health, but also lay a solid foundation for human beings’ spirit.
Taking hiking for example, it’s a blend of man and nature completely way to travel, and also a kind of sports that not only need your physical strength, but also need the patience, perseverance and persistence. At the beginning of climbing a mountain, you’ll be exciting with the fantastic scene of mountain, river and water. However, after a half way, you’ll fell so tired and exhausted. The climbing road becomes more and more steep. At that time, it requires your persistence and determination to conquer arduous situations. It just likes the life, the closer the success is, the more difficulties you must endure.
From my aspects, the enchantment of sports is that it’s a challenge for the limit of your body --- both a sort of healthy and popular life style and an reflection of optimistic and positive attitude. Just like nowadays, the development of Olympic games is harmonious and prosperous, for the reason that it’s not only for shaping human’s body, but more for pursuing a king of spirit --- faster, higher, stronger.
This is my speech. Thank you.

now i think at this point it's important for me to say that i actually love extroverts. i always like to say some of my best friends are extroverts, including my beloved husband. and we all fall at different points, of course, along the introvert/extrovert spectrum. even carl jung, the psychologist who first popularized these terms, said that there's no such thing as a pure introvert or a pure extrovert. he said that such a man would be in a lunatic asylum, if he existed at all. and some people fall smack in the middle of the introvert/extrovert spectrum, and we call these people ambiverts. and i often think that they have the best of all worlds. but many of us do recognize ourselves as one type or the other.
and what i'm saying is that culturally we need a much better balance. we need more of a yin and yang between these two types. this is especially important when it comes to creativity and to productivity, because when psychologists look at the lives of the most creative people, what they find are people who are very good at exchanging ideas and advancing ideas, but who also have a serious streak of introversion in them.
and this is because solitude is a crucial ingredient often to creativity. so darwin, he took long walks alone in the woods and emphatically turned down dinner party invitations. theodor geisel, better known as dr. seuss, he dreamed up many of his amazing creations in a lonely bell tower office that he had in the back of his house in la jolla, california. and he was actually afraid to meet the young children who read his books for fear that they were expecting him this kind of jolly santa claus-like figure and would be disappointed with his more reserved persona. steve wozniak invented the first apple computer sitting alone in his cubical in hewlett-packard where he was working at the time. and he says that he never would have become such an expert in the first place had he not been too introverted to leave the house when he was growing up.
now of course, this does not mean that we should all stop collaborating -- and case in point, is steve wozniak famously coming together with steve jobs to start apple computer -- but it does mean that solitude matters and that for some people it is the air that they breathe. and in fact, we have known for centuries about the transcendent power of solitude. it's only recently that we've strangely begun to forget it. if you look at most of the world's major religions, you will find seekers -- moses, jesus, buddha, muhammad -- seekers who are going off by themselves alone to the wilderness where they then have profound epiphanies and revelations that they then bring back to the rest of the community. so no wilderness, no revelations.

From Walls to Bridges
I'm studying in a city famous for its walls. All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing sight of the city walls, silhouetted by the setting sun with gold and shining lines. With old, cracked bricks patched with lichen, the walls are weather-beaten guards, standing still for centuries in protecting the city.
Our ancestors liked to build walls. They built walls in Beijing, Xi'an, Nanjing and many other cities, and they built the Great Wall, which snakes through half of our country. They built walls to ward off enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has been maintained to this day as we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public. I grew up at the foot of the city walls, and I've loved them since my childhood. For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world.
My perception, however, changed after a hiking trip to the Eastern Suburbs, a scenic area of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some international students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by taller and taller trees, which formed a huge canopy above our heads. Suddenly an international student asked me, "Where is the entrance to the Eastern Suburbs?"
"We're already in the Eastern Suburbs," I replied.
He seemed taken aback, "I thought you Chinese have walls for everything." His remark set off a heated debate. At one point, he likened our walled cities to "jails," while I insisted that the Eastern Suburbs were one of the many places in China that had no walls.
That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this international student. For instance, he told me that universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls; the campuses were just part of the cities. I have to admit that we do have many walls in China, and as we are developing our country, we must carefully examine them, whether they are physical or intangible. We will keep some walls but tear down those that impede China's development.
Let me give you an example.
A year ago, when I was working on a term paper, I needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library. However, the librarian turned down my request with a cold shoulder, saying, "You can't borrow this book, you are not a student here." In the end, I had to spend 200 yuan buying a copy; meanwhile, the copy in law school was gathering dust on the shelf.
At the beginning of this semester, I heard that my university has started not only to unify its libraries but also link them up with libraries of other universities, so my experience will not be repeated. Barriers will be replaced by bridges. Through an inter-library loan system, we will have access to books from any library. With globalization, with China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.
I know globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. But one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to China's tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their roles in the modern world.
And how about the ancient walls in my city and other cities? Should we tear them down? Just the opposite. My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls. These walls attract not only historians and archeologists but also many schoolchildren trying to study our history and cultural heritage. Walls have turned into bridges to our past and to the rest of the world. If the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great change in the role of their walls. They are now bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all countries of the world. Our cultural heritage will survive globalization.

As we all know, "Failure is the mother of success." But few people can really understand what the saying means.
In the world, I am sure that no one dare say he hasn't met any trouble all his life. So we must face failure. In fact, failure is not fearful, but important thing is how to face it correctly. Facing failure, people will never take their fate lying down. They will try their best to work harder and harder until at last they succeed.
Not being courageous to face setbacks, people have no chance to enjoy the pleasure of success. So they have nothing to do but feel sad and empty all day and all night. In fact, they lose the chance of success themselves.
My friend, whenever in trouble, please remember, "Failure is the mother of success."
我們都知道,“失敗是成功之母”。但很少有人能真正理解這句話的意思。
在這個(gè)世界上,我相信沒有人敢說他在生活中還沒有遇到任何麻煩,所以我們必須面對(duì)失敗。事實(shí)上,失敗并不可怕,重要的是如何正確面對(duì)它。敢于面對(duì)失敗,人們將不再被命運(yùn)打倒。他們?cè)絹碓脚ぷ髦钡阶詈蟪晒Α?/p>
不敢面對(duì)挫折,人們也就沒有機(jī)會(huì)享受成功的喜悅。他們會(huì)無所事事而感到傷心和整天整夜的空虛。事實(shí)上,他們喪失了成功的機(jī)會(huì)。
我的朋友,無論何時(shí)你遇到了困難,請(qǐng)記。骸笆∈浅晒χ!

英語演講比賽演講稿 篇31
when i was nine years old i went off to summer camp for the first time. and my mother packed me a suitcase full of books, which to me seemed like a perfectly natural thing to do. because in my family, reading was the primary group activity. and this might sound antisocial to you, but for us it was really just a different way of being social. you have the animal warmth of your family sitting right next to you, but you are also free to go roaming around the adventureland inside your own mind. and i had this idea that camp was going to be just like this, but better. (laughter) i had a vision of 10 girls sitting in a cabin cozily reading books in their matching nightgowns.
(laughter)
camp was more like a keg party without any alcohol. and on the very first day our counselor gathered us all together and she taught us a cheer that she said we would be doing every day for the rest of the summer to instill camp spirit. and it went like this: “r-o-w-d-i-e, that's the way we spell rowdie. rowdie, rowdie, let's get rowdie.“ yeah. so i couldn't figure out for the life of me why we were supposed to be so rowdy, or why we had to spell this word incorrectly. (laughter) but i recited a cheer. i recited a cheer along with everybody else. i did my best. and i just waited for the time that i could go off and read my books.
but the first time that i took my book out of my suitcase, the coolest girl in the bunk came up to me and she asked me, “why are you being so mellow?“ -- mellow, of course, being the exact opposite of r-o-w-d-i-e. and then the second time i tried it, the counselor came up to me with a concerned expression on her face and she repeated the point about camp spirit and said we should all work very hard to be outgoing.
and so i put my books away, back in their suitcase, and i put them under my bed, and there they stayed for the rest of the summer. and i felt kind of guilty about this. i felt as if the books needed me somehow, and they were calling out to me and i was forsaking them. but i did forsake them and i didn't open that suitcase again until i was back home with my family at the end of the summer.
now, i tell you this story about summer camp. i could have told you 50 others just like it -- all the times that i got the message that somehow my quiet and introverted style of being was not necessarily the right way to go, that i should be trying to pass as more of an extrovert. and i always sensed deep down that this was wrong and that introverts were pretty excellent just as they were. but for years i denied this intuition, and so i became a wall street lawyer, of all things, instead of the writer that i had always longed to be -- partly because i needed to prove to myself that i could be bold and assertive too. and i was always going off to crowded bars when i really would have preferred to just have a nice dinner with friends. and i made these self-negating choices so reflexively, that i wasn't even aware that i was making them.
now this is what many introverts do, and it's our loss for sure, but it is also our colleagues' loss and our communities' loss. and at the risk of sounding grandiose, it is the world's loss. because when it comes to creativity and to leadership, we need introverts doing what they do best. a third to a half of the population are introverts -- a third to a half. so that's one out of every two or three people you know. so even if you're an extrovert yourself, i'm talking about your coworkers and your spouses and your children and the person sitting next to you right now -- all of them subject to this bias that is pretty deep and real in our society. we all internalize it from a very early age without even having a language for what we're doing.
