正如每個人所知,英語在今天十分重要。它已經被應用到世界的各個角落。它已經成為商業上最為通用的一門語言并廣泛的用于國際貿易。如果我們能說好英語,我們就有更多的機會成功。因為越來越多的人注意到這一點,學英語的人數正在已很高的速度增長。
但是對我而言,我學英語不僅僅因為它的重要性以及它的實用性,更是因為我喜愛英語。當我學英語時,我可以體會到一種不同的思維方式,它可以給我更多接觸世界的空間。當我讀英語小說時,我能感受到不同于閱讀翻譯文的快樂。當我說英語時,我可以感到自信。當我寫英語時,我能夠感到不同于漢語的那種美……
我愛英語,它給了我一個色彩斑斕的夢。我希望有朝一日我可以暢游世界,用我流利的英語,我可以和世界各地的人交友。我能看到許多的名勝。我希望我能夠到倫敦去,因為那里是英語的故鄉。
我也希望用我流利的英語來將我們的名勝介紹給說英語的朋友,我希望他們可以像我們一樣的愛我們的國家。
我知道,羅馬不是一天筑成的。(成功需要日積月累。)我相信在持續不斷的努力學習下,總有一天我可以擁有一口流利的英語。

英語演講稿范文1If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance(毅力)more often, andnever give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient.If we want light, wemust conquer darkness.Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results.“There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount thepyramids—the eagle and the snail.”
If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; Iwould let nothing come between me and the subject in hand.I would remember thata good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.The habit ofattention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough.I often heargrown-up people say “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book,although I wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed inyouth.
If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to thecultivation of the memory.I would strengthen that faculty by every possiblemeans, and on every possible occasion.It takes a little hard work at first toremember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very littletrouble.It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side.Life is very muchlike a mirror: if you smile upon it, I smile back upon you; but if you frown andlook doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return.
Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that comein contact with it.“who shuts love out ,in turn shall be shut out fromlove.”
Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the solepurpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, I would still try harder tomake others happy.
英語演講稿范文2Ladies and Gentlemen: My topic is Honesty.
As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr.James Gilman,the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England.In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’stooth.This is a true story.
65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao.Then he was only 5 years old.Heoften visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there,which he thought was a dragon.He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted oneto keep as a treasure.
In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had toleave.On his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one ofthe teeth from the dragon’s mouth.
He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at havingstolen it was there in the background all through his life.It was always on hisconscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older.Finally he decidedto put right his childish error.In 2002, he visited Qingdao and returned it tothe Aquarium with his sincere apologies.He received a warm welcome.
When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported onhis visit.I was deeply touched by his honesty.It has taught me a lot.I thinkto err is human.The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correctone’s error.
Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour.So we should try to keep anhonest mind in everything we say and do.I would like to say to all of myfriends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.
英語演講稿范文3ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and giveyou a short speech.today my topic is “youth”.i hope you will like it , andfound the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions:
1、do
you know what is youth?
2、how
do you master your youth?
youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is thefreshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of theappetite , for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of 60more than a boy of 20 .nobody grows old merely by a number of years .we growold by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure ofwonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the gameof living .in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and powerfrom men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
when the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but aslong as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you maydie young at 80.
thank you!
英語演講稿范文4good evening , ladies and gentlemen .i am joy and glad to give you aspeech about stress , yes , just the topic you see on the screen.
psychologist tell us that stress is a state of worry caused by the problemof living , such as too much work or study , heavy responsibilities , andquickened pace of life .
statistics show that stress comes from every detail in our life .financialproblems , poor health , being laid off may be the stress that most adults nowsuffering .as students in the university , we are also under our special stress.while study , having to take various tests and submit a project against adeadline may put a great pressure on us .and the things make us felt stressedmay be our parents’s greater expectations on us than we could reach .later ,when we are likely to graduate , some other problems will also annoy us .ithink we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and howwe can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job .
the chief problem we should face to is our atitude towards stress .peopleusually say they can not live in the sun except they escape from stress .it’sunwelcome ! yes , however , very necessary .just image a world where stressdoes not exist and people lead their life in a very comfortable way .but isthis kind of living condition as perfect as we hope ? without stress , they mayfeel very satisfied with the current life but lack of power to discover newthings .too much result in nothing except a countermarch of the society .nostress , no development .so a certain amount of stress is good .it canstimulate us and increase our level of alertness .
and our answer to stress is another vital problem .how to do withourselves when stress suddenly break into our life ? to wave the white flag andadmit our unability , to give up to our ideality , or worstly , just to suicideas to put an end to everything … of cause not .the principle is to tackle withstress gentlely and harmoniously.we should try our best to release ourselves .such as to do some exercise , to linsen to traditional chinese music orclassical music to ease our minds and to learn to view these changes of life aschallenges .it’s no use crying over spilt milk .only to accept what hashappened can solve the problem .
ok , i think i was under large stress 3 minutes before , but now i am hereand have finished my speech .here is the last thing i want to add to my topic,face to it and overcome it ,stress is also a piece of cake
英語演講稿范文5We are not going to evade that responsibility.We are going to let peopledown.And people, far and near, will hear of us.Frost will be brought to theirbackbones and tears to their eyes when our stories are told and retold, So letus go forth, my fellow members of this luckily chosen generation, and meet thenew century in victory and glory.
Knowing the Consequences of Choice
Over the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute.Rightbefore I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channelswe 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 towatch.Finally, we agreed that we should watch the "most interesting"programme...If we
could agree what that was.

經典演講示范
American High School Students
1. Ladies and gentlemen, good morning. It’s my great honor to be here and I am very happy to see you all. Thank you for what I am going to talk about today is American education.
2. Firstly, I’d like to talk about American high school students. My topic today is very interesting because American high school students are very different from Chinese high school students. I was a teacher in an American high school and I hope I can share my experiences with you.
3. Remember this important point, American students care about their social activities and activities outside school more than anything else. Chinese students care about their schoolwork and exams more than anything else. American students are very independent. They drive their own cars, work at part time jobs and often have their own money. American high school students are often involved in relationships with boyfriends or girlfriends. Studens in America must learn how to schedule their time among work, school, friends, sports and of course, fun! This type of responsibility is challenging for young people and often their education suffers. This is just a brief introduction to one of the many aspects of American education. Thank you all for listening and I hope you all enjoy yourselves today.
1、 女士們, 先生們、早上好!我很榮幸來到這里、并且很高興見到大家。謝謝你們的光臨。我今天要談論的話題是美國教育。
2、 首先,我想談談美國的高中生。我今天的話題很有趣,因為美國的高中生與中國的高中生有很大的不同。我是一位來自美國的中學教師,我希 望我能和你們一起分享我的經歷。
3、 請記住一點,美國的高中生把學校之外的社會實踐活動看得比任何東西都重要。而中國的學生卻把學校表現和考試成績看得比什么都重要。美國學生很獨立。他們擁有自己的車,他們能兼職工作,他們用自己賺的錢去購買電話、電視機、音響和游戲機等。美國的高中生通常還有女朋友或男朋友。美國學生必須學會規劃好自己的時間,去應付工作、學習、交友、運動,當然還有娛樂等。這種情況對年輕人來說是一種挑戰,通常他們的教育都會受到影響。這只是美國教育這面多棱鏡的一角。
My favorite book is (Italian: Cuore). This is a diary written by an Italian boy Enrico. The diary is about his life and study. It included various touching stories that happened around Enrico, the mottos taught by his parents, as well as the wonderful ten "monthly" stories told by his teacher during the class. Every word in the chapter describes the word "love". From patriotism to friendship, and to the love between parents and child -- really touching.
This novel taught me how to love, and how to learn from love. I really like this book very much. How about you? What is your favorite book?
My favorite book is . Have you read it before?
Oh, I haven’t read this book before. What is it about?
Well, it is a story of a rich girl who maintained her noble character after the bankruptcy of her father. The story is happy ending.
Can you tell us why you love this book so much?
it’s a very intresting topic today.
i think my dad was a hero for me when i was a young child. we'd go fishing, walks, and other fun things for a kid.
every child has a good and great father, and so do i. my dad played a very important role in my daily life`````exactly speaking, in my past 16 years.
my father always stands in the center of my life, from past till now and possibly in the future.
my family was rather poor when i was in my childhood. we didn't have our own house and had to live in a shabby, small room rented from my father's factory. the room was so small that there was little space for people to walk. i didn't have my own bed and had to sleep with my parents. this is terrible both for my parents and me.
but father made this all different!he works very hard on his own business, now we have our own 2 housese,surly,i have my own room.and he take our family so much happiness, richer and richer.
when i was little, i did everything with my dad. you could always find me sitting on his knee or walking and doing everything with him. every night he would read me a bed time story and make the voices of each character.
i learnt a lot from my daddy. i learnt to never take things to seriously and to always smile.
like many other fathers, my dad and i also has generation gap. he is not good at or even can’t work the computer. so when i sitting at the computer desk,he will say something like ‘you should pay more attention to your study’, ‘don’t waste time on the computer games’ , ‘it will be bad for your eyes’ and so on. how can i- a computer fan – reduce time on computer? so i continue studying and playing on it

勵志英語演講1What would you do if you failed? Many people may choose to give up.However, the surest way to success is to keep your direction and stick to yourgoal.
On your way to success, you must keep your direction.It is just like alamp, guiding you in darkness and helping you overcome obstacles on your way.Otherwise, you will easily get lost or hesitate to go ahead.
Direction means objectives.You can get nowhere without an objective inlife.
You can try to write your objective on paper and make some plans to achieveit.In this way, you will know how to arrange your time and to spend your timeproperly.And you should also have a belief that you are sure to succeed as longas you keep your direction all the time.
如果失敗了你會怎么做?很多人可能會選擇放棄。然而,要想成功,最可靠的方法就是堅持你的方向和目標。
在通往成功的路上,你必須堅持你的方向。它就像一盞燈,在黑暗中為你指路,幫助你度過難關。否則,你很容易就會迷失方向或猶豫不前。
方向意味著目標。人生如果沒有目標,將一事無成。
你可以試著把你的目標寫在紙上,并制定實現目標的計劃。這樣,你就會懂得如何合理安排時間,如何正確地支配時間。而且你還要有這樣的信念:只要你一直堅持自己的方向,你就一定可以成功。
勵志英語演講2Today is an excellent day for small improvements.Whatever is working foryou, find a way to improve it just a little.There’s no need to make a hugechange, just a small one, something you can do right now.
If you called just one additional customer each day, over the course of thenext month you would talk to about 20 new people.If you learned just one morenew word each day, in the next year you would increase your vocabulary by morethan 300 words.
Small improvements can add up over time into big accomplishments.Lookaround you.Consider the work you do each day.Think about how you could do itjust a little bit better.
In a marathon race, each step the winner takes is just a little bit longerand a little bit faster than each stride taken by the 100th place finisher.Yetover the course of the race, that small difference adds up in a big way.
Do just a little bit more today, and tomorrow too, and each day after that.Anyone can make just a small improvement, and that can make a big, bigdifference.
今天就是你可以做改進的極好的一天。無論你在做什么,找一個方法去做一點點的改進。不用做太大的改變,只要一點點——你現在可以做到的一點點。
如果你每天多給一個顧客打電話的話,一個月下來你會發現你又多認識了差不多二十個人。如果每天多學會一個新詞,過一年,你的詞匯量將會增加300多個。
小小的改進能夠逐步積累成大的成就。觀察你的周圍。思考你每天所做的工作。英語短文想一下你怎么能做得更好一點。
在馬拉松比賽中,冠軍的每一步都只比第一百名的選手的步伐大一點點、快一點點。英語短文但是在比賽過程中,那些小小的不同積累成了巨大的區別。
今天、明天、今后的每一天盡力做更多一點點。任何人都能做一點小小的改進,但那小小的改進將會起到非常大、非常大的作用。

青春不是指歲月,而是指心態。粉嫩的臉,紅潤的唇,矯健的膝并不是青春。青春表現在意志的堅強與懦弱。想象的豐富與蒼白、情感的充沛與貧乏等方面。青春是生命深處清泉的噴涌。
青春是追求。只有當勇氣蓋過怯弱、進取壓倒茍安之時,青春才存在。果如此,則60見之長者比20歲之少年更具青春活力。僅僅歲月的流逝并不能使他們衰老。而一旦拋棄理想和信念,則垂垂老也。
歲月只能使皮膚起皺。而一旦喪失生活的激情,則連靈魂枯老,使人生枯如死水,毫無活力。
60歲長者也好,16歲少年也罷,每個人的內心深處都渴望奇跡,都如孩子一般眨著期待的雙眼,期待著下一次,期待著生活的情趣,你我靈魂深處都有一座無線電中轉站------只有你我年輕,則總能聽到希望的呼喚,總能發出喜悅的歡呼,總能傳達勇氣的訊號,總能表現出青春的活力………
一旦青春的天線倒下,你的靈魂即為玩世不恭之雪、悲觀厭世之冰覆蓋;即使你年方20.其實你已垂垂老也。而只要你青春的天線高高聳起,就可以隨時接收到樂觀的電波-----即使你年過八旬,行將就木,而你卻仍然擁有青春,你仍然年輕。
謝謝!
勵志英語演講4Since we have received education, we are told that drugs are horrible andthey can destroy our life completely.In the TV, the news reported the disastersthat drugs would bring, but still there were so many young people had beenseduced to take drugs.During recent years, some famous stars were caught by thepolicemen.They took drugs and brought the negative information to the public.As a result, their career was ended and they couldn't appear in the screen.Theyoung people is the future of a country, but they are easy to be seduced bycriminal behaviors.They want to try something new and go against the law.It isunwise to try drug, because it is hard to recover.Without strong will, lifewill be ruined.We should stay away from drugs.
我們所接受的教育都是告知我們是可怕的,它們可以徹底摧毀我們的生活。在電視上,新聞報道了會帶來的災難,但仍然有很多年輕人被_去吸毒。近年來,一些著名的明星因吸毒被警察抓住了,也把這負面信息帶給了公眾。結果,他們的職業生涯就結束了,再也不能出現在屏幕上。年輕人是一個國家的未來,但是他們很容易被犯罪行為所_。他們想嘗試新事物,違反法律。嘗試是不明智的,因為它很難戒掉。如果沒有堅強的意志,生活將會被毀滅。我們應該遠離。
my favourite super star is jj , he has a lovely dimple and his eyes are also very lovely . now let me tell you the story about jj .
he enterde the music indestry at the year XX , before that year ,he was only a boy who wrote songs for many super stars ,his songs were liked by many people but no one care who was the writer . he was noly hard to write songs because he like music ,he thought music has it soal , if you sing it by heart , it well be lived .
i like a song of him , it's name is cries in a distance , the song tells us ,nothing is sad if we belive the hope . he has many difficulty , but his song says , cries in a distance , can't stop the tremble , i'm just waiting my turn , hiding will never , save me forever , the guns gonne get me for sure . dear god i pray why won't you be my friend , come to me and take my hand ,like mama would say everything will be ok.
now he is not rather a shy singer and performer , the lyrical songs make him mature ,and now he is a man or not a boy .
he is a real super star with many fans ,the improve mark a big step forward confident .
when the breeze gently hold when liuxu savoury, when the sun put it golden glorious quietly around the cherry blossom trees on appered handsome; when the beautiful petals in the air to reach several commonly roll long, then gently landed, we are enjoying a brilliant happineof campus life.
early morning, happy bird singing, accompany us go strollw floral path and watched the we walked into the campus, eye is full of happiness. sunshine shop in writing has "e, nanjing normal university affiliated yangzi dickers" e, the bronze medal and put downy light reflection to our body, we cheerfully accepted this light, vigorous entered in campus. on the way to the classroom, and every day that we can all see beautiful fountain and pool, and forceful huaihe books and rather ?
the most successful person may not be the smartest ones.according to a survey conducted among a group of people who were in the same university ten years ago , those whose grade-point average was in the middle fifty percent , all become rich or managers of different fields , while not a single young man of the upper ten percent becomes an executive or boss. why the smartest kids in the classwill not end up the richest? why those who are not excellent in studies tend to be managers or own their own enterprise in their later life? and what factors lead to succein career and life if brains are not the only answer? according to my observation , academic brightneis only part of the story , the other factors are very important. one ingredient , among other things , is good interpersonal skills. there is stong evidence that friendship can help to tide you over a period of difficulty. with a wide circle of friends who can be trusted yo provide information and resources, your chances of succeare much higher. on the contrary , if you are competent in profession , but have difficulty in getting along with your colleagues and even your boss, you can hardly survive the corporation. another component is the ability to expreoneself . in today s world , what really counts is the ability to expreoneself rather than technical competence or professional knowledge . the larger the orgnization of which you are an employee , and th fiercer the competition , the more important it will be that you know how to convey your thoughts and convince others of your ideas. personality is also an important factor. whatever difficulty or situation , those who appear relaxed and confident are nearer to success. obviously , among the ingredients for succe, intelligence counts for the half , the rest depends on your personality , and other abilities.
every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. my friends will listen to me when i want to speak, will wipe my eyes when i cry, will take care of me when i am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
as students, we could share more time with our friends. the friendship in our young hearts is pure, fresh and simple. i often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends. especially when i had justin as one of my best friends. justin was my english teacher from the usa. i met him in 1996 when i was a student who could only speak very little english. justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face, and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive. he taught us english by telling stories, playing games, singing songs, and even dancing. i could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin-ished our class, we went to some other classes to sing songs for them, just like what people do in the states on christmas eve. it was so interesting and unforgettable. justin was an excellent teacher, because he taught us not only how to study english well, but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others' lives. i know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts. facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important, the real importance lay in faith, under-standing, and care. justin is the best friend i have ever had, and i know i will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory.
friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. it is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. it is also like a cup of tea. when we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
however, in this fast-developing modern society, the reality is not that. more and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of life and -the beauty of friendship. they work hard in order to gain a higher position, in the society and to earn more money for their work. of course, we don't deny that it is important to find a bet-ter place in our lives, but we wish more and more people could pay a little more attention to themselves and their friends. all of us have to spare some time for personal lives. we have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. when staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. we can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. i should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
