英语小故事演讲稿1
Thank you. Thank you, President Chen, Chairmen Ren, Vice President Chi, Vice Minister Wei. We are delighted to be here today with a very large American delegation, including the First Lady and our daughter, who is a student at Stanford, one of the schools with which Beijing University has a relationship. We have six members of the United States Congress; the Secretary of State; Secretary of Commerce; the Secretary of Agriculture; the Chairman of our Council of Economic Advisors; Senator Sasser, our Ambassador; the National Security Advisor and my Chief of Staff, among others. I say that to illustrate the importance that the United States places on our relationship with China.
I would like to begin by congratulating all of you, the students, the faculty, the administrators, on celebrating the centennial year of your university. Gongxi, Beida. (Applause.)
As I'm sure all of you know, this campus was once home to Yenching University which was founded by American missionaries. Many of its wonderful buildings were designed by an American architect. Thousands of Americans students and professors have come here to study and teach. We feel a special kinship with you.
I am, however, grateful that this day is different in one important respect from another important occasion 79 years ago. In June of 1919, the first president of Yenching University, John Leighton Stuart, was set to deliver the very first commencement address on these very grounds. At the appointed hour, he appeared, but no students appeared. They were all out leading the May 4th Movement for China's political and cultural renewal. When I read this, I hoped that when I walked into the auditorium today, someone would be sitting here. And I thank you for being here, very much. (Applause.)
Over the last 100 years, this university has grown to more than 20,000 students. Your graduates are spread throughout China and around the world. You have built the largest university library in all of Asia. Last year, 20 percent of your graduates went abroad to study, including half of your math and science majors. And in this anniversary year, more than a million people in China, Asia, and beyond have logged on to your web site. At the dawn of a new century, this university is leading China into the future.
I come here today to talk to you, the next generation of China's leaders, about the critical importance to your future of building a strong partnership between China and the United States.
The American people deeply admire China for its thousands of years of contributions to culture and religion, to philosophy and the arts, to science and technology. We remember well our strong partnership in World War II. Now we see China at a moment in history when your glorious past is matched by your present sweeping transformation and the even greater promise of your future.
Just three decades ago, China was virtually shut off from the world. Now, China is a member of more than 1,000 international organizations -- enterprises that affect everything from air travel to agricultural development. You have opened your nation to trade and investment on a large scale. Today, 40,000 young Chinese study in the United States, with hundreds of thousands more learning in Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America.
英语小故事演讲稿2
匆匆吃完早饭后,我大步流星地走进了演讲大厅。一位著名的教师正在对学生们讲话。他手举一张一百美元的钞票,对三百个学生说,“谁想要这张一百元的钞票?”学生们立即举手。接着他说,“我会把这张一百元的钞票给你们其中的一位,但首先我要做件事。”他将钞票捏成一团,问,“现在谁还想要?”所有的手又举了起来。然后他说,“那么,如果我这样做呢?”他将钞票扔在地上,并在上面踩了几脚。他捡起脏兮兮的钞票,问,“仍然有人要吗?”所有的`手又举向了空中。
“朋友们,”他说,“今天你们学到了很有价值的一课。无论我对这一百元钞票做了什么,你们仍然要它,因为它并没有贬值,它仍然值一百美元。生活中,不止一次,我们会被扔,甚至被踩,这时我们会感到自己毫无价值。但是请你记住,无论什么发生在你身上,你永远不会失去你的价值。对于那些爱你的人来说,你一直是有价值的。你的价值并非来自你是做什么的或者你认识谁,而是来自你是谁。你是特别的、有价值的,永远不要忘记这一点!”
英语小故事演讲稿3
Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshneof the deep spring of life.
A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I’d like to share it with all of you. Let’s show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life.
What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let’s make a fist. Where is our future?
Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”

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.

1.Hello everyone,my topic of the speech for today is "City Life and Country Life".
Why do people choose to live in the cities today?The reason is:in the cities,we have more opportunities.In cities there are many shops.There is no problem if you need to buy something.If it isn't in one shop you can go to another one.In the village there are usually only few shops and even the only one with the necessary foods.But cities aren't only centres of shopping but there are also many offices.Of course all the good schools are in cities.People in the cities can find a now job more easily than people in the country.After all,a job opportunity is one of the most important reasons why to move to the city.But many people from cities say they would love living in the country.I agree with them.
2.Many citizens like to live in the city.City folks like the conveniences and comforts of the big city.It is convenient to get around in the city by bus or taxicab.There are many taxicabs in most cities.
Cities have many schools for children,young people and adults.Adults can go to class at night to learn to read and write better,and to be trained for better jobs.Every large city has at least one college.Adults as well as young people have the chance to go to college.
Citizens of cities have convenient medical services.There are many good doctors to give these medical services.There are many policemen in the cities.The police protect the citizens.
The city has many kinds of entertainment.There are film shows,plays,concerts,parades,and many other kinds of entertainment.There are many places to visit.Many adults like the entertainment and comforts found in a city.
But some of our citizens like the country better.They say the country has many comforts, homes in the country have electricity.They have electric ice boxes and electric stoves.The country has many more conveniences and comforts than it once had.
The country has space for people to do things.People who live in the country have space to plant flowers and space to keep animals.Some people like to have space in which they can move around freely.
People in the country get lots of exercise when they work on the land.Children get lots of exercise by working or riding their bicycles to school.In the country there are fewer accidents and people do not need so many policemen to protect them.Living in the country is clean and quiet.
Where would you rather live,in the city or country?
英语小故事演讲稿6
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.
英语小故事演讲稿7
几年前,我住在一个小镇的一幢建筑物中。对面有另一幢建筑物,离我住的地方只有几米远。那里住着一个我以前从未见过的女人。每天下午我都能见到她坐在窗户边,喝茶或者看书。
几个月后,我发现她的窗户太脏了,通过她家窗户看到的一切都很模糊。我不知道那个女人为什么不把窗户洗洗。
一个阳光灿烂的上午,我决定彻底清理一下我的公寓,包括清洗窗户。我一直忙到下午很迟才完成,然后,我坐在窗边小憩。多么令人惊讶啊!那个坐在窗户边的女人一下子变得清晰了!她的窗户是干净的'!突然,我意识到我犯了一个错误。原来我一直在通过自家的脏窗户看她!
那对我来说是一个很重要的教训。从那以后,无论我什么时候想要判断一个人,我首先问问自己,“我看他时,我心灵之窗是否肮脏?”然后,我努力洗净我内心世界的窗户,只有这样我才能看清外面的世界。
