我的大學(xué)英語演講稿
besides study, music is the most important part of my life. i began to learn piano at 6 and drum at 11. in school, i teach students to play jazz drums, kettledrums, xylophone and so on. we give performances in many universities to popularize percussion and to bring music to them. i’ve learned drums for so many years and it can’t be separated from my life now. it is my beating heart, my pulse, veins and arteries. when i play it, i wanna move my body, i can sit on my chair anymore i can’t help swinging i communicate with the audience i call upon them to join me with the beat of drums the rhythm of music and the fragmence of youth. hi, come on!
in one summer vacation, i volunteered to teach my neighborhood community and taxi drivers to learn 100 english sentences for apec. i made great efforts to walk out of my air-conditioned room and walk into the hot and suffocating weather. some of these people didn’t have the opportunity to get good education, and even didn’t know abc! i tried hard to find and easy way to teach them. for example, how to remember “the oriental tv tower”? i put “tower” as “套鞋” in shanghai dialect. it is not the right way to teach and learn english like this, but actually it is the only way. in the end of my vacation, they could use some daily language. i was so glad and thought my efforts rewarding. being a volunteer, i mould myself serve the people and welcome the coming apec. being a university student living in ivory tower, i feel the hardness of taxi driver. it was at that time that i cherished most my opportunity to study in shanghai university which enjoys the first rate facilities in china. i will work hard and contribute myself to our country in the future.
and another summer vacation, i worked as a junior clerk in an import and export company. i didn’t know how to draw up invoice; how to make customs declaration forms; how to fill the packing list or i even didn’t know what is cif! i strongly feel my lack of working and social experience; these are knowledge that can’t be learned from textbooks. how to teach oneself, how to make a circle of acquaintances and get along with people of various characters---i think these are the preparation of entry into society and are more important than my scores in examinations. working in the company, i threw away my t-shirts jeans track shoes and changed into suits dresses and high-hell shoes. it was far from comfortable and occasionally i stumbled over my steps. oh! how difficult it is to be a white-collar office lady! one should pretend to be a noble lady, working all day before the table, wearing the dangerous high-heel shoes! isn’t it a challenge?
