　　I received a devastating blow to my self'confidence in the first interview of my college years。 I applied to be a host in our Student Acting Troupe and felt confident that I would be accepted。 But one of the panel members told me: “You seem inadequate and you are a little vertically'challenged�！� My life has never been the same since。 I used bigger heels to plement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence。 But no matter how hard I tried to look the part， there was still something missing。 As president of English Club， I organized the rehearsal of Snow White for an English party。 Unfortunately， we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf。 It had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in English。 Suddenly， all eyes turned to me， and I knew I would have to be the dwarf。 To my great surprise and delight， once on stage， I was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use。 As the dwarf， I was a big hit。　　Yes， each of us is only one among millions of others， but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique。 Cultivating our individuality will transform our lives， making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures�！　�A world deprived of diversity would be a bland and boring place。 The real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly， but having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model cool boy or a flawless charming girl�！　�Given a choice， I would rather be ugly than live in such a world。 I'd rather be a genuine dwarf acpanying a Snow White than be a Snow White among nothing but Snow Whites。 I would rather be myself。 I would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more diverse universe。 Please， be yourself。

　　Let me begin my speech with a replay of scenes familiar to most， if not all， of those present here today。 “Mum， I'm sorry， but I need 3，000 yuan for my tuition this year�！薄　　癕um， it is my friend's birthday tomorrow， I must buy her a present�！薄　　癕um， this jacket was out of fashion long ago， would you do me a favor? ”　　Take。 Take。 Take。 The relationship between a mother and a child always seems to follow such a pattern。 I know my mother is always there for me， providing me with everything I need; from food to clothing， from tuition to pocket money。 I never thought twice about all she did until one day she said， “Will there be a time that you'll say you have taken enough from me? ”　　Like a child endlessly asking， we humans， throughout history， have been continually demanding what we desire from nature。 We enjoy the fort and beauty of our furniture， yet we never bother to think about the serious soil erosion caused by deforestation。 We take it for granted that we must warm ourselves in winter times， yet we seldom realize the burning away of precious natural resources。 We appreciate all the prosperity from the development of modern industry， yet few would give the slightest consideration to the global air and water pollution caused by industrial wastes。 Our ruthless exploitation has permanently impaired our mother earth。 As we tragically learned from last summer's floods。 we cannot continue our carelessness。　　Finally， standing here at the threshold of the 21st century， we cannot help thinking of our posterity。 Nature is not only the mother of the present generation， but also the mother of the generations to e。 How severely our descendents will criticize us if we leave them a barren and lifeless mother? How much more they will appreciate us if we give them a world of harmony to inherit? Let us start respecting and caring for nature from now on。 Let us start the campaign of creating a mutually beneficial relationship between people and nature right from this moment。 With this new start， I firmly believe， that our children， and our children's children will live in a brand new age of green trees， clean air， crystal water， blue sky and an even more promising world!

　　We've all been taught that we should help people。 It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others。 It may even win us favors in return。 However， we must be realistic。 We can't say yes to every request。 If we did， we would fail or go crazy for sure。 Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help。 In this case， we must know how to say no politely。　　When we need to say no， here is one method we can try。 First， we should tell the truth。 If we really can't do something， we should just say so。 Second， we should remember to refuse requests politely。 We must municate clearly， but must also be sincere and sympathetic。 A true friend will understand。 Finally， we must not feel guilty about saying no。 Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do。 It can save ourselves， and them， a lot of trouble。 In short， we cannot please everyone all the time。 Refusing favors is a part of life。

　　Good morning，ladies and gentlemen，today i am so happy to stand here to give you a speech。Or rather， a real story of mine�！　�Though with time going by，i can still remember what you once told me。You should be a brave girl。Smiling，you looked into my eyes。Year in，year out，nearly most of my memories are fading little by little。But only this simple sentence remained，without being forgotten in my life�！　�Again and again，i can not stop myself from thinking about it。So ordinary，but so impressive，so moving，just like the brightest sunshine，it helps me go through the darkest night。I am such a sensitive girl in your heart。You said，my sorroful facial expression made feel so distersssed。However，there is one thing i never tell you，that is ，i am being a big girl gradually with your words and smiles。I never tell you about it，for i believe oneday，you can see the great changes of mine for yourself。That is what i want to do in return。As i know，that will be the best gift for you�！　�I suddenly think of a song named MY HEART WILL GO ON。There is a beautiful sentence going like this。You are safe in my heart。More than once，i was moved to tears by it。I know ，i am also safe in your heart。i have already forgotten when i told you i was going to leave for Australia this summer holiday。You just smiled as usual，gently speaking。Whatever you decide to do，i will be in favor of it，but， just onething，remember，when you fell lonely abroad，do not forget we are here ，praying for you。We are all around you，far across the distance and space between us。i closed my eyes，the flashback started。The memories we had together，once we played games on the palyground，we played jokes on each other，you always wrote a lot of sentences on my articles to encourage me。And the most unforgetable thing，you told me，you believed m i could be a big girl。Sooner or later�！　�At that specific moment，i suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence totally。So on that day，i smiled as you used to，looking at you。The last words i said were，keep walking in sunshine�！　�Yes，keep walking in sunshine。I said to you ，also to myself。I know i am not alone wiht your pany，and we can keep walking in sunshine till the last minute of our days。　　I promise，i will be a big girl�！　�I promise，i will be a brave girl。　　I promise，i will keep walking in sunshine�！　�That is my speech，thank you!
