Independence Day 20xx Speech
Good morning India!
Today on 15th August 20xx India is celebrating its 67th Independence Day, and we Indians are proud to say we have owned our freedom 67 years old back. As we gather here today I take the opportunity to congratulate every student and teacher of this School/college a Happy Independence Day! I also take the opportunity of welcoming you our chief guest for today!
We have assembled here to celebrate our 67th Independence Day. As a citizen of India, I am so proud to talk to you about my mother India. On the night of August 14, 1947, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru rose to make a maiden speech in New Delhi, “When the world sleeps, India will wake to life and freedom.” Yes, India became free from the bondage of British rule. Now, India is the largest democratic country in the world. The country’s strength is to find, “Unity in diversity”. But, there are stray incidents that test her secularism but the people of India are ready to sacrifice anything for the cause of unity. Today we remember the great leaders who gave their lives for the nation’s freedom and prosperity. Dr. B.R.Ambedkar gave the longest written constitution to us. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru worked for an industrialized India. Gandhi Ji taught us Ahimsa and Non-violence. Subash Chandra Bose inducted courage in us. Swami Vivekanand gave us spiritual power. Yes, with these contributions; India will be the super power in the coming years. Our former President Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam called the children of India to dream to build a strong Nation with aim and perseverance. Indeed! This is not a word of a single man. It is word of one billionsouls.
Jai Hind!

What life is about
As we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.
Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.
But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all, it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, we’ve added years to life, but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.
And these choices are what life is about.
生活的真諦
眾所周知,關於生活最重要的我們對待生活的態度,不同的人以不同的方式對待生活,一些人成功了,一些人失敗了。這裡有一些關於生活的帖士給我們大家。
生活不是為了保持高分,生活也不僅僅是你的鞋子、你的髮型和你的膚色。實際上,生活也不只是你擁有多少朋友,或者你是否孤獨;生活也不僅僅意味著你被別人接受與否。生活並不僅僅是這些。
但是,生活是關於你所愛的和你所傷害的那些人。生活就是你對自己的所有感覺。它是關於信任、幸福和包容。它是你對朋友的支持和如何用愛來融化內心的憎恨。生活就是遠離嫉妒、克服無知和建立信心。生活是關於你的言行和思想。
生活就是關注人的自身,而不是關注別人的擁有。而且我們必須記住保持我們的本色。雖然,生活的另一面令我們嚮往,但保持我們的本色是通往生活真諦的必由之路。總之,生活就是用你整個的生命去觸摸其他人從未企及的選擇。 在生活的長河中也常常令我們困惑和矛盾,我們擁有越來越高大的建築,但我們也越來越缺乏耐心;我們購買的物質越來越多,但我們從中得到的快樂越來越少。我們學習如何活著但那卻不是生活;人類的壽命越來越長,但有意義的生活並因此而延長。因此,現在正是我們選擇使我們的人生變得不同凡響的時候了。國中英語演講稿這些選擇就是生活的真諦。
大學生經典英語演講稿 篇3
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."
"mum, it is my friend's birthday tomorrow, i must buy her a present."
"mum, 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 comfort 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 come. 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!

the english speech about success
i’m glad to be here to share with you my definition of success.
when we mentioned the success, the usual worldly criteria are wealth, fame, high social status and something other like that. in reality, we can’t deny t these things in some way. but personally, i believe that success is the realization of people’ hopes and wishes. and to live with a high ideal is a successful life. it is not what one does, but what one tries to do, that make a man strong. so i believe that success is ninety-nine percent mental attitude, it calls for lots of positive quality: effort, love, diligence, efficiency and so on. i think the successful life always have these characters. if a person inherits his family’s millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person in material terms, it just can be said that he has the smooth way of life, he is lucky in some way, but that is not the success .unceasing effort is the price of success. no matter what is the result, we always can get more from the process. what we should do is that insisting on our goals or dreams and always encourage
ourselves to challenge more, to hold the opportunities, never give up. it sounds like simple, but it is really hard to do. also the key points of the success.
relatively speaking, in our daily life, success would be rather simple. for me, i’m standing here to take part in the speech competition is somehow also success. as i’m a easy to suffer from stage fright, i choose to hold this chance, my goal is my own character training——to be more confident, to have more courage to front such situation, i really do it, i have truly gained by participating, i’m success.
what is success? i’m sure that everyone has his own interpretation as i do. in the inspiring words of philips brooks:“ do not pray for tasks equal to your powers ,pray for powers equal to your tasks, then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle.” so believe in our hopes ,believe in ourselves. every one can create the success.
thank you!

Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom. It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time as long as he lives in the world .We should learn how to face failure bravely and to try to deal with it.
I think we should be grateful to life whenever we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail .We can also get relief and warmth when we are unlucky. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and hope.
感恩是生活的重要理念和大智慧。這是任何人都不可能是幸運和成功的所有的時間,只要他生活在世界上,我們應該學會如何勇敢地面對失敗,並試圖解決它。 我想我們應該感謝生活,每當我們遭遇失敗還是不幸。只有這樣,我們才能發現自己的弱點,當失敗的缺點。我們也可以感受到安慰和溫暖的時候,我們是不 幸的。感恩是一種歌唱我們的生活,時逢我們的愛和希望。
大學生經典英語演講稿 篇7
No thought exactly, exactly when to start, has set foot on the road of youth, young no longer time, started the different thoughts and mood. More moment of time, water out eventually must stop, forever all, no longer believe that anything is immortal.
For a long time, we are always in the wandering and hesitation, the fork in the road of life, can not find the way forward, have no one to give you direction, pain, sorrow, to follow. We sighed with emotion, always feel that, because of youth, life becomes muddy; Because of the youth, we become decadent disconsolate. Because of the youth, we couldn't see the future.
However, should not is the youth.
Youth is the pronoun of surging blood, is permeated with enthusiasm, is hard work, try is endless. Youth is amenable to hone but can't afford to spend, withstand development but can't afford to waste. All day long malaise, the eyes see is decadent, what's the point? More complaints, discontent, and can change what? Just can make oneself feel living very tired very heavy, and then again the complaints, discontent, so, a vicious cycle.
In fact, we are young, what is impossible! Had so many dreams, is this in this great good youth, to strive, to strive, to an opportunity to achieve all you want. As long as bravely forward, efforts to pay, even if to finally failed to gain what you want, in the process of experience have you enough to treasure memories.
Youth, give you, my life only once, prime not heavy, once a day morning, when encouraged in time, time and tide wait for no man. Is most worthy of being highly treasure the value of each and every day, grasp today, grasp tomorrow, welcome the first ray of sunshine every day. Youth time is priceless, every minute counts.
Most of the time will feel tired, helpless, not a lot of passion. Whether because our heart is no longer young, everything is see through? No, dominate the world is you, give up the world is still you. Haze weather mood diary or beautiful, are you in writing.
Perhaps, in this materialistic, false prosperity of society, do you want to just flatly light life, "otherwise, serene life", do not want to pursue in the repeated, do an ordinary person. We can't go too one-sided evaluation says this is right or wrong, but ordinary doesn't mean mediocrity. We can be ordinary, but can not mediocrity.
Once, many years later, when to do, say, always feel that is so childish. Young ignorance, is the young dream, the wasted years filled with youthful dribs and drabs. May be sad, may be sad. Want to say is, do not experience wind and rain, how see rainbow; Want to say is, don't give up, want to stay more has also is the scenery along the way. Want to say is, no matter what, all is the past, no need to go to with grief.
One day we will enter the adult, in the way of youth away. But please don't be sad, because leave is for better memories. Someone once said "life is like a one-way ticket to no return, no rehearsals, every game is live. Grasp every performance is the best to cherish life." When we looking back again, can say proudly: when we were young, we had struggled, and burned. Without regret to face yourself, face the future, never have regret!
沒有確切地想過,到底是從何時開始,就已經踏上了青春的道路,年少的時光不再,開始了另一番的思想與心境。更多地須臾長嘆:細水長流終須止,天長地久有盡時,不再相信有什麼東西是永垂不朽的。
很長的一段時間,我們總是在徘徊、彷徨,人生的岔路口上,找不到前進的道路,沒有能夠給予你指導方向的人,痛苦、憂傷接踵而至。我們感嘆著,總覺得,因為青春,生活變得泥濘不堪;因為青春,我們變得頹廢惘然;因為青春,我們看不清未來。
可是,青春並不應該是這些的。
青春的代名詞是澎湃的熱血,是洋溢的熱情,是努力的拼搏,是無盡的嘗試。青春是經得起磨練但經不起消磨的,經得起開發卻經不起揮霍。整日的萎靡不振,眼裡看見的只是頹廢,這些又有什麼意義呢?再多的抱怨,再多的不滿,又能夠改變什麼呢?只是會讓自己覺得活的很累很沉重,然後再次的抱怨、不滿,如此下去,惡性循環罷了。
其實,我們還年輕,有什麼事情是不可能的!曾經那么多的夢想,正該乘著這大好的青春年華,去拼搏、去努力,給所有的夢想一次實現的機會。只要勇敢得向前,努力的付出,即使到最後沒能夠收穫你想要的,過程中的經歷也已經足夠你去珍藏回憶的。
青春,只賦予你、我一生一次,盛年不重來,一日難再晨,及時當勉勵,歲月不待人。最值得高度珍惜的莫過於每一天的價值,把握住今天把握住明天,迎來每天的第一縷陽光。青春時光無價,一刻千金。
很多時候都會覺得疲憊不堪、無可奈何,沒有太多的激情。是否是因為我們的心已經不再年輕了,將一切都已經看透?不,主宰世界的是你,放棄世界的仍然是你。心情日記里天氣的陰霾或風和日麗,其實都是你自己在撰寫。
或許,在這物慾橫流,虛假繁榮的社會裡,你想要的只是平平淡淡的生活,“與世無爭,恬淡一生”,不想在反反覆覆中追尋,只做一個平凡的人。我們不能過於片面的去評價說這是對是錯,但是平凡並不意味著平庸。我們可以平凡,但絕不可以平庸。
很多年以後,回想起曾經做的事、說過的話,總會覺得是那么的幼稚。年幼的無知,少年的白日夢,蹉跎的歲月中充斥著青春的點點滴滴。或許會悲傷,或許會難過。想說的是,不經歷風雨,怎能看見彩虹;想說的是,再多的不捨、留戀也已經是沿途的風景;想說的是,無論是什麼,都已經是過去的了,沒有必要再去糾結哀傷。
終有一天我們將會進入成年,在青春的路上漸行漸遠。但請不要悲傷,因為離開是為了更好的回憶。有人曾說過“人生就像一張有去無回的單程車票,沒有彩排,每一場都是現場直播。把握好每次演出便是對人生最好的珍惜。”當我們再次回首往事時,可以很自豪地說:當我們年輕時,我們奮鬥過,盡情燃燒過。可以無悔地面對自己,面對未來,不曾有過遺憾!

In Other Ways
其他開場方式欣賞
Today I come to Oslo as a trustee, inspired and with renewed dedication to humanity; I accept this prize on behalf of all men who loved peace and brotherhood. I say I come as a trustee, for in the depths of my heart I am aware that this prize is much more than an honor to me personally.
今天,我以受託人的身份來到奧斯陸,心情激動,充滿了獻身人類的新勇氣。我代表所有熱愛和平與兄弟情誼的人們接受這個獎。我之所以以受託人的身份來到這裡,是因為,在我的內心深處,我意識到這個獎決不僅僅是我個人的榮譽。
The road of history is not level and smooth all along. Sometimes the path will come to a dangerous and difficult place.
It is only with the valiant and gallant spirit of the travelers that it can be passed through.
The vast and mighty Yangtzi River, when it comes to an endless, broad plain, will flow ten thousand miles in a rapid current. But as it reaches a narrow valley with high ranges of mountains, cliffs and precipices on both sides, which look dangerously steep, the river has to force its way through them in a winding, tortuous course. The same is the case with the developing course of a nation's history.
The history of human race is like going on a journey. Some of the places the traveler passes through are smooth and level pianos, and others are dangerous and rugged paths. The experienced travelers, when they moved on to a broad, level road, will naturally walk along with a light heart, but while they are passing through a rugged place they will all the more be seized with curiosity, and in such an extremely fantastic and magnificent realm, will all the more feel a sort of pleasure in an adventure.
歷史的道路,不總是平坦的,有時會變得艱難險阻。這只能靠英勇無畏的精神才能夠衝過去。
一條浩浩蕩蕩的長江大河,有時流到很寬闊的境界,一望無際,一瀉千里。有時流到很逼狹的境界,兩岸叢山疊嶺,絕壁斷崖,江河流於其間,曲折迂迴,極為險峻。民族生命的進展,其歷程亦復如是。
人類在歷的生活正如旅行一樣。旅途上的征人所經過的地方有時是坦蕩平原,有時是崎嶇險路。老於旅途的人,走到平坦的地方固是高高興興地向前走,走到崎嶇的境界,愈是奇趣橫生,覺得在此奇艷壯絕的境界,愈能感得一種冒險的美趣。

Good morning, Everyone!
早上好,大家!
I will talk about sports. I am an active boy. I like many kinds of sports, such as walking, skating, climbing, cycling and skipping. Doing sports gives me a good health and brings me a lot of fun.
我將談論體育。我是一個活潑的男孩。我喜歡很多運動,如散步,滑冰,登山,騎腳踏車,跳繩。做運動讓我健康,給我帶來了很多樂趣。
Now, I will tell you about my cycling sport. I often ride my bicycle when I am free. I like to ride my bicycle on a road near my house. It is an empty road. There are no cars and few people walking on the road. It is about four kilometers long. It has several long slopes. So it is very good for cycling. When I ride down the slopes, the bicycle runs very fast, and I feel I am flying. That’s a very good feeling for me. When I ride up the slopes, it is very difficult, but it is a good training for me. I always try my best to ride up as long as possible. Cycling there gives me lots of fun.
現在,我將告訴你關於我的腳踏車運動。我經常騎我的腳踏車在我的自由。我喜歡在我家附近的道路騎腳踏車。它是一個空的路。沒有汽車,很少有人走在路上。這是約四公里長。它有幾個很長的坡。所以它是騎腳踏車很好。當我騎下山坡,腳踏車跑得很快,我覺得我在飛翔。這對我來說是一個非常好的感覺。當我騎上斜坡,它是非常困難的,但它對我來說是一個良好的訓練。我總是盡我最大的努力去騎了儘可能長的。腳踏車也給了我許多樂趣。
Everyone can get ill, but doing sports is a good doctor. I know an English saying “Exercise one hour a day, keep illness away.” My own story has proved it. I once had an illness. I had to go to see the doctors and take medicines very often. After doing sports for several years, I have recovered now.
每個人都會生病,但做運動是個好醫生。我知道每天鍛鍊一小時的一句英語諺語“,讓病。“我自己的故事證明了它。我曾經有過的疾病。我不得不去看醫生,吃藥,經常。經過幾年的運動,我已經恢復了,現在。
Doing sports gives me a strong body and brings me lots of fun. So if you want to be strong, please do sports; if you want to enjoy a happy life, please do sports, too.
做運動讓我強壯的身體,給我帶來了很多樂趣。所以如果你想強壯,請做運動;如果你想快樂的享受生活,也請做運動。
Thank you
謝謝

First day,we went go the Great Wall because it is the pride of our Chineseand a wonder in the world.
Then we went to the summer palace We saw many beautiful sceneries there.The next day we went to the Tian'anmen square ,and we tasted Beijing duck.
In the afternoon we went to the bird's nest and the water cube.Though wewere tired we were very happy.
I learned much knowledge that I can't learn in the textbooks so I willnever forget this interesting trip.

Most Chinese students have difficulties in learning English. The difficulties vary so much from person to person that it is difficult to cite here in a few words. Some may have problems in reading. Others may have trouble in writing. I also had problems in English learning, but my difficulty seemed to lie in listening. For example, when tested for listening comprehension, I couldn't understand a single sentence, let alone a passage of medium level.
In order to overcome the difficulty in my English learning, I made great efforts to find the key to the problem. I consulted my teacher and found out that I merely didn't have enough time to practice listening. So I bought a tape recorder and listened to it at least two hours a day. In addition, I listened to "Special English" on VOA. I also went out of my way to speak to foreigners on the campus whenever we meet so that I could have the chance to listen to the native speakers. After half a year's hard work, I could get 70% of the questions correct in listening comprehension tests.
I own my success to my English teacher. It is him who tells me the correct way to learn English. It is him who always encourages me when I encounter difficulties and feel disappointed.
大學生經典英語演講稿 篇13
I'd like to share with you a discovery that I made a few months ago while writing an article for Italian Wired. I always keep my thesaurus handy whenever I'm writing anything, but I'd already finished editing the piece, and I realized that I had never once in my life looked up the word "disabled" to see what I'd find.
Let me read you the entry. "Disabled, adjective: crippled, helpless, useless, wrecked, stalled, maimed, wounded, mangled, lame, mutilated, run-down, worn-out, weakened, impotent, castrated, paralyzed, handicapped, senile, decrepit, laid-up, done-up, done-for, done-in cracked-up, counted-out; see also hurt, useless and weak. Antonyms, healthy, strong, capable." I was reading this list out loud to a friend and at first was laughing, it was so ludicrous, but I'd just gotten past "mangled," and my voice broke, and I had to stop and collect myself from the emotional shock and impact that the assault from these words unleashed.
You know, of course, this is my raggedy old thesaurus so I'm thinking this must be an ancient print date, right? But, in fact, the print date was the early 1980s, when I would have been starting primary school and forming an understanding of myself outside the family unit and as related to the other kids and the world around me. And, needless to say, thank God I wasn't using a thesaurus back then. I mean, from this entry, it would seem that I was born into a world that perceived someone like me to have nothing positive whatsoever going for them, when in fact, today I'm celebrated for the opportunities and adventures my life has procured.
So, I immediately went to look up the 20__ online edition, expecting to find a revision worth noting. Here's the updated version of this entry. Unfortunately, it's not much better. I find the last two words under "Near Antonyms," particularly unsettling: "whole" and "wholesome."
So, it's not just about the words. It's what we believe about people when we name them with these words. It's about the values behind the words, and how we construct those values. Our language affects our thinking and how we view the world and how we view other people. In fact, many ancient societies, including the Greeks and the Romans, believed that to utter a curse verbally was so powerful, because to say the thing out loud brought it into existence. So, what reality do we want to call into existence: a person who is limited, or a person who's empowered? By casually doing something as simple as naming a person, a child, we might be putting lids and casting shadows on their power. Wouldn't we want to open doors for them instead?
One such person who opened doors for me was my childhood doctor at the A.I. duPont Institute in Wilmington, Delaware. His name was Dr. Pizzutillo, an Italian American, whose name, apparently, was too difficult for most Americans to pronounce, so he went by Dr. P. And Dr. P always wore really colorful bow ties and had the very perfect disposition to work with children.
I loved almost everything about my time spent at this hospital, with the exception of my physical therapy sessions. I had to do what seemed like innumerable repetitions of exercises with these thick, elastic bands -- different colors, you know -- to help build up my leg muscles, and I hated these bands more than anything -- I hated them, had names for them. I hated them. And, you know, I was already bargaining, as a five year-old child, with Dr. P to try to get out of doing these exercises, unsuccessfully, of course. And, one day, he came in to my session -- exhaustive and unforgiving, these sessions -- and he said to me, "Wow. Aimee, you are such a strong and powerful little girl, I think you're going to break one of those bands. When you do break it, I'm going to give you a hundred bucks."
Now, of course, this was a simple ploy on Dr. P's part to get me to do the exercises I didn't want to do before the prospect of being the richest five-year-old in the second floor ward, but what he effectively did for me was reshape an awful daily occurrence into a new and promising experience for me. And I have to wonder today to what extent his vision and his declaration of me as a strong and powerful little girl shaped my own view of myself as an inherently strong, powerful and athletic person well into the future.
This is an example of how adults in positions of power can ignite the power of a child. But, in the previous instances of those thesaurus entries, our language isn't allowing us to evolve into the reality that we would all want, the possibility of an individual to see themselves as capable. Our language hasn't caught up with the changes in our society, many of which have been brought about by technology. Certainly, from a medical standpoint, my legs, laser surgery for vision impairment, titanium knees and hip replacements for aging bodies that are allowing people to more fully engage with their abilities, and move beyond the limits that nature has imposed on them -- not to mention social networking platforms allow people to self-identify, to claim their own descriptions of themselves, so they can go align with global groups of their own choosing. So, perhaps technology is revealing more clearly to us now what has always been a truth: that everyone has something rare and powerful to offer our society, and that the human ability to adapt is our greatest asset.

If I were in that position, I would notcare about what anyone else may say. I only care about her feeling. We shouldknow that our friendship is pure without anything bad mixed. Friendship is veryimportant for everyone, so I will let my friendship last forever.
也許一個女孩和一個男孩成為了好朋友,他們在一起會感到很幸福。但是,其他同學會認為他們相愛了。如果你是其中之一,你會怎么辦?如果是我,我將不會在乎別人說什麼,我只在乎她的感覺。我們應該明白,我們的友誼是純潔的,是不含任何雜質的。友誼對每個人都很重要,所以我會讓我們的友誼繼續下去。

每個人都應該明白你不能失去異性的朋友如果你不與異性同學交朋友,那么你就已經失去了一半朋友。所以你可以與你所有的同學交朋友,不要害羞。你同樣也應該重視你已經建立的友誼,不要破壞它,除非你想傷害他。不過,請不要去嘗試,如果你這么做你會失去太多的感情。

As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a
famous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
正如我們所知道的,我們會感到寂寞,如果我們還沒有一個朋友。但這並不意味著我們可以依靠我們的朋友。有個著名的格言說:‚一個朋友就像一個棉花棉絲被子,但真正的東西,是使你暖和是你自己的溫度。‚這是真的。我們必須努力同我們的朋友,互相激勵,互相幫助。當我們能收到更多的愛與友誼,我們應該償還高達就可以了。
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our heart
最後,讓我們一起祈禱了,有一天,我們都能找到我們想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友誼的真正左右我們的生活了。讓我們一起祈禱友誼之花卻成為我們的朋友,我們將永遠綻放鮮艷的在我們的心中
大學生經典英語演講稿 篇16
Hello, my name is Hao Hao. I am a small member of class 3 in grade six. Today, my topic is my ideal.
Edison, a British scientist, will not be surprised. He is a world-famous invention King. He invented more than one thousand kinds of life. My ideal is to become a great inventor like Edison.
Remember in the third grade textbook, we see Edison to invent almost blind eyes, his train was deaf in one ear, also burned a dress by sulfuric acid. However, his determination to pursue science has not wavered. It is this stubborn spirit, persistent efforts and attitude towards learning that made Edison a great inventor.
I think, if I really want to be an inventor like Edison, I want to carry forward his spirit of not afraid of difficulties and perseverance. For this reason, I want to do four words: diligence, perseverance, courage and thinking. "Diligence" is diligence. All the people who have a good job are the result of hard work. "Constant" is perseverance, there is perseverance can be expected to achieve. "Bravery" is the determination to overcome difficulties when learning difficulties. "Thinking" is equally important. Learning is always combined with thinking. Todays "thinking" is also dared to fantasize. Only by opening the wings of fantasy can invention become reality.
A plow, a harvest, in order to achieve the ideal, I will pay hard!
