My favorite Animal-Black Faced Spoonbill
Good afternoon, dear judges. Today my speech is “I love black-faced spoonbill.
On a beautiful winter day, I happened to meet the lovely spirit------
Black Faced Spoonbill, a type of migratory bird, which spends winter at Hong-Shu-Lin in my city every year. Covered with snow-white feathers, it has black legs and a black beak. Besides the blacks and whites, an amazing splash of yellow is under its neck. So elegant that I couldn’t help loving it at first sight.
With a big and spoon-shaped beak, it can clasp fishes easily, which makes it a powerful hunter in birds.
However, with human expansion and pollution, only around 20xx ones are living all over the world.
Like the eleven swan princes in Andersen’s Fairy Tale, the Black Faced Spoonbills have always been struggling to find a tiny rock which can offer them a momentary tranquility. Fortunately, they have found one in my beloved home. I would always hold them dearly to my heart and wish they would return with flocks of chicks in the following years, and singing……
Oh, I have a home, such a beautiful home, where I play and rest happily.
Oh, give them a home, such a wonderful home, where the spoonbills play all day.

我最爱的动物---- 黑脸琵鹭
尊敬的评委，女士们 ，先生们:
大家下午好!我今天演讲的题目是“我喜欢黑脸琵鹭”。
在一个美丽的冬日里，我偶遇了这可爱的精灵----黑脸琵鹭。这是一种候鸟，每年都会来深圳的红树林度过他们的冬天。覆盖着雪白雪白的羽毛，他们有黑色的长腿和鸟嘴。黑白之间，那一抹令人惊叹的黄色隐约在脖子下。如此的优雅，让我禁不住一眼便爱上了它!
有着大大的、勺子似的长嘴，他轻而易举的就能捕到鱼儿，这使他成为了鸟类中捕食的好手!
但是，由于人类的不断扩张和环境污染，存活在世界上的黑脸琵鹭仅约20xx只!
正如安徒生童话中的那11位天鹅王子一样，黑脸琵鹭也一直奋力地寻找着一块能给予他们片刻喘息的小小礁石!幸运的是，他们找到了，那就是我可爱的家---深圳!我将永远把黑脸琵鹭珍放在我心里，也期盼着来年冬天他们带着他们的宝宝再回来，快乐地歌唱着….
啊，我有一个家，一个美丽的家!在这里，我自由飞翔、快乐生息…
啊，给他们一个家，一个美好的家!在那里，他们自由飞翔、快乐永远…
Never Give Up
Ladies and Gentlemen:
“If I could reach higher, just for one moment to touch the sky…”---this is from my favorite song Reach.
When we are appreciating the passionate melody of Gloria Estefan, we could hardly imagine that she could return to the stage after her paralysis. In the year 1990, this Cuban singer was knocked down in a traffic accident, and the doctor declared that she might never walk again. But Gloria did not give up and kept up constant exercising. Just one year after the disaster, she stood up again and presented this encouraging song at the Atlanta Olympics.
Whenever I think of Gloria, I can’t help recalling my memory seven years ago, when I first entered university. Naturally shy, ordinary looking, average scores in study, just like an ugly duckling, I seemed to be the least outstanding one in my class. And the successive failures in the beginning led me into despair. “Am I destined to take the back seat to others?” Unwilling to submit to the fate, I paid more efforts on my study as well as many other activities, film dubbing, recital, drama… cause I just want to catch every little opportunity to prove myself. Constant effort yields sure success. Thanks to the competition, I received some awards and most of all, I gained the courage and confidence to face any difficulties in my life journey.
Life is just like farming, and what you can reap depends a lot on your sowing and dedication. Once you have a dream, don’t be hesitant. Your next difficult step may be the one to the top. Keep going forward, even in the toughest time, and never give up.
Thank you very much.
Youth and Faith
Ladies and Gentlemen:
My name is Tiffany, a Year 2 student from the University of Macau. I am currently an active member of the university Public Speaking Team, president of the Honours College Student Association, and also the vice president of the event department in Marketing Society. I am very active and outgoing. I enjoy being with people, engaged in conversations with them so that I can understand them more. I like public speaking as it can help increase my self-esteem and self-confidence. Aside from public speaking, I am also good at English recitation. I have joined the Macao-wide English Individual Recitation for a number of times when I was studying in the secondary school.
Imagine a car without a steering wheel. Tough to imagine, right? Well, actually that’s the image you see if a person has no faith. Faith helps to guide us in our lives, encourage us to persist, and give directions when we are lost.
In this peaceful era, our life paths seem to be already well-planned and determined. What we have to do is to follow. Yes, we may face different sorts of challenges, but at least they are less harsh when compared to those in the past. We do not need to worry about starving to death, or how to earn enough money to buy food for our siblings and sustain our lives.
It is like driving from a muddy road into a highway. In the muddy road, path, you would say, as it is formed only by crossing on it many times, flattening the ground to form a smoother area so we can pass. The road is so bumpy and rough, with holes here and there and rocks lying all over. When we drive along this road, we have to be very careful, having a firm grip on the steering wheel, ready for a sudden turn or a large boulder that may appear any second. However, when we drive on a highway, everything becomes different. The road is smooth, straight, and visible. Since there is no unseen obstacle, we may lower our guard, relax a bit, and loosen our grip on the steering wheel. One may even think, if we only have to drive on a smooth straight road like this highway, why would we need a steering wheel?
Nevertheless, one cannot foresee the future. Accidents do happen. For example, a car may suddenly appear in front of you. At such times, if you did not have the steering wheel, how could you make a sudden turn? Just as no one could foresee the Sichuan Earthquake nor the Japan Tsunami. If the one being trapped under the debris did not have faith, he/she would not have survived until being rescued. If we did not have faith, we could not recover from our sadness and rebuild our home.
Faith is unique, just as happiness is. We feel happy for different reasons, we believe for different things. How can we know what we believe in? Recall the last time you are discouraged, and you felt you had lost all hopes in your life. What pulled you back into the world? What pushed you to stand up and continue to strive again? That is your faith, your belief. Faith is what makes you feel you can when others say you can’t.
Faith is important…, faith is vital…, faith is necessary for us to live our lives. If we do not have faith, we are like a car without a steeling wheel. We can only afford to move along a straight and smooth path, and cannot meet any challenge in our lives. One must understand that no matter how smooth the road is, it is impossible for a car to go without a steering wheel. Or, put it in another way, have you ever seen a car without a steering wheel on the road? So, act now, my friends, find out what you believe in, find out your anchor in your life, hold on to your steeling wheel of your car, drive on, and reach your destination.
Thank you very much.
Everybody good you know China? China is a thriving country, has five millennium resplendence history, 20xx-10-01 pray for heavenly blessing the motherland to work as grand Tiananmen, welcomes Dongsheng sun; When the palatial engraved pillar, puts on the gentle dawn. The history condensed in this moment - - October 1, 1949, a giant, announced with the loud and clear sound to the world: The People's Republic of China established!

Has had been through repeatedly 60 year repeated difficulties, in 20xx, the People's Republic of China has welcomed she 60 year-old birthday. 60 years, the glory years are in a flash; 60 years, China vicissitudes great change. But in our generation, should lift up the responsibility which rises for China studies, after in the future will grow up, will let our motherland be more bountiful, forever arrogantly will stand East the world.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,
When I was in high school, I once did very poorly on an important exam. My father didn’t punish me, but told me one simple sentence “fishing itself is more important than the fish.”
I was a bit unsure hearing that. I know that my father loves fishing. I often saw him release the fish after catching them. And he had told me more than once that he went fishing just because he wanted to feel the rod in his hands as the fish plays with the hook, and to feel the thrill of lifting the fish out of the water. But I could not find out what his words have to do with me.
I repeated his words over and over again. Then I began to understand what he really meant. To his way of thinking, the process of doing something is much more important than the result. And I realized a truth that I could cherish: those who are optimistic and self-confident, and who enjoy doing something new, worry less about failure. They see in every activity a process of self-discovery and self-fulfillment that can not be measured by an exam or the number of fish in one’s basket.
Unfortunately, too many people think differently. These people insist that it is only the result that matters. A bad result makes them dissatisfied with themselves far more than it should. And the more they feel this way, the more they forgot what little they learned. Yes, I now said to myself, fishing itself is much more important than the fish. Although four years have passed, I can still remember the moment when my father said
that sentence to me.
We need to appreciate the value in living, despite its many setbacks. Roads are for the journey, not the destination. Sunshine awaits those who keep the path!

女士们,先生们,早上好
当我在高中的时候,我曾经非常差在一个重要的考试。我父亲没有惩罚我,但告诉我一个简单的句子“钓鱼本身比鱼更重要。”
我有点不知道听说。我知道我的父亲喜欢钓鱼。我经常看见他释放后的鱼抓他们。他不止一次告诉我,他去钓鱼,因为他想杖在他的手钩鱼玩,以及感到兴奋的举起鱼出水面。但是我不能找出他的话跟我有什么关系。
我一遍又一遍地重复他的话。然后我开始明白他真正的意思。他的思维方式,做事的过程比结果更重要。我意识到我可以珍惜的真理:那些乐观和自信,谁喜欢做新的东西,少担心失败。他们看到在每一个活动的一个自我发现和自我实现的过程,不能用考试来衡量或鱼的数量在一个篮子里。
不幸的是,太多的人的想法不同。这些人坚持认为,只有结果才是最重要的。一个糟糕的结果让他们不满意自己远比它应该。越多,他们觉得这种方式,他们忘了他们学到的东西就越多。是的,我现在对自己说,钓鱼比鱼本身重要得多。虽然四年过去了,我还记得那一刻,我父亲说这句话给我。
我们需要感谢生活的价值,尽管存在许多挫折。道路是旅程,而不是终点。阳光在等待那些保持路径!
