there are many people who think that wealth is better than health. i used to think so until one day i read a story about howard hughes. he was an american billionaire who got anything he wanted. however, in the last twenty years of his life, his health began to deteriorate and he was miserable. he had the best doctors and nurses. however, he could still find no relief. i realized that health is worth all the money in the world. if you have millions of dollars but your health is poor, you will not be able to do what you want to do. so i would like to say don’t hurt yourself trying to make money. instead take care of your body and be happy with what you do have. health is more important.
which is more important, health or wealth? it is a hot topic among people. i can hardly answer this question. i didn’t realize that health is more imporant until i saw a businessman’s real life.
a successful businessman, one of my father’s friends, devoted himseff to his business. he works from morning to night every day. there is no weekends in his mind. he often says, "i must earn much money so that i can get what i want. "lately, he is ill. though he has a lot of money, he can do nothing but lie in the hospital’s bed.
so i think health is more important than wealth people can do nothing if they are always in poor health, let alone happiness. no matter we are rich or not, we can not ignore the importance of health.
中文翻译：
很多人都认为财富宫比健康更重要。在读到howard hughes的故事之前，我也是这么认为的。howard hughes是美国的一个亿万富翁，能得到他想得到的任何东西。但是在他生命最后的二十年中，他的身体变得很糟糕，他很悲惨。他有最好的医生和护士，但仍得不到解脱。我意识到在这个世界上，好的身体抵得上所有的金钱。因为即使你有百万美元但身体糟糕，也不能做你想做的事情。因此我想说的是关心你的身体，对你所拥有的一切感到高兴，不要为挣钱损害你的身体。健康更重要。
健康和财富哪个更重要?这是人们常爱谈论的一个话题。我以前回答不出这个问题，但是现在从一个商人的真实生活中我意识到健康更重要。
我父亲的一位朋友，一个成功的商人，全身心投入到他的工作中。每天从早工作到晚，在他心目中根本没有周末的概念。他经常说：“我必须多挣钱，这样就可以想干什么就干什么。”近来，他病倒了，除了躺在医院病床上，什么也不能做。
所以，我认为健康比财富更重要。如果一个人身体总是不好，他什么也做不成，更不用谈幸福了。不管我们贫穷还是富有，都不能忽视健康的重要性。

让游戏闪亮你的英语课堂
游戏在英语课堂上的重要性都快比得上水之于鱼了，很难想象一堂课上，如果没有了游戏，该怎么继续。不论高年级还是低年级，在游戏中学习都是一种十分有效的学习方式。低年级学生好动又好胜，游戏能让他们在动身体的同时动脑，并且享受成功的喜悦。高年级的课堂相对而言比较乏味，适时的游戏会是绝佳的作料。好的游戏能让一堂沉闷的英语课活跃起来，是学生学习的兴奋的药剂。
一、游戏的安排应讲究一个“适”字，适时、适式、适度。
（一）适时组织游戏
看准时机，针对学生的实际安排合适的游戏形式。
1.让学生从思想上尽快进入英语课堂，游戏导入是个相当快捷、有效的方法。我们可以安排listen and do，listen and point，look and say，flash and say等操作简单，但具有检查性质的游戏。学生在玩游戏的同时，复习了旧知识，情感上也得到了体验。而从这些旧知识的复习，我们可以自然过渡到新知识的传授，温故知新，以旧带新，一举两得。
2.在复习巩固阶段，最忌讳的是机械操练。游戏能使复习变得生动。比如我们学了一系列水果以后，安排老师拿一个水果，学生说出来的环节，但反复几次之后，学生的积极性就会减弱。这时，我们安排游戏Who is missing？Who is fast？Magic eyes等，学生的积极性就会立刻恢复，一只只小手又会争先恐后地举
起。
3.当学生的脸上闪过“无聊”、“困惑”的痕迹时，游戏可解“燃眉之急”。高年级的学生面临背单词、记单词的难题。如果不讲究方法地死记硬背，不但效果不好，学生的兴趣也会逐渐降低。在这个阶段，如果能帮助他们掌握正确的方法，促使他们主动背单词，就会对他们以后的英语学习有很大的帮助。单词接龙、吊死鬼、寻找共同点等游戏，不仅让学生始终处于积极思考的状态，而且能提高他们课后记单词的兴趣。
（二）适式组织游戏
有些游戏的可用性很强，如copy不走样等游戏，无论什么内容，都能套用。但有些游戏，却不是什么内容都合适的。教师要学会使用最恰当的游戏，如flash and guess这样的游戏仅适合单词教学，而不适合巩固句型。
不同年龄阶段的学生，对游戏的口味也不同，我们要学会投其所好。低年级的学生喜欢趣味性强的，如copy不走样，high voice and low voice能引起他们参与的欲望。而高年级的学生则喜欢探索型的游戏，比如bingo、加减运算对抗赛就很受他们的欢迎。
（三）适度组织游戏
在教学中，我们不能只为让学生放松、玩乐而安排游戏，归根结底，游戏是为教学服务的。在游戏活动之前，我们必须指定相应的规则，没有规则，游戏过程就会很“乱”，有规则才能“活而
有序”。当学生的“玩性”到五、六成的时候，我们的游戏就该结束了。因为如果游戏结束太早，学生才刚进入游戏状态，熟悉游戏规则，就结束游戏，一来扫兴，二来游戏的“运用语言”的目的也没达到。如果游戏结束得太晚，学生就会越来越无聊，下次再玩这类游戏就没有了热情。
二、游戏的组织，还要讲究一个“变”字——以不变应万变。
（一）巧设陷阱
同一个游戏“发口令，做动作”，一般都是教师怎么发，学生怎么做，最多让一个学生发，其他学生做，偶尔做做反口令，分组进行比赛。做多了，学生的好奇心没有了，游戏就变成了机械操练。如果设几个陷阱，就会有“眼睛一眨，老母鸡变鸭”的效果。趣味性的调节就是教师在做动作的时候，可以先慢慢地好像在做“坐下”的动作，眼神一定要是那种坏坏的，然后突然变成“起立”，让学生产生和教师斗下去的欲望。师生成了“敌人”，而游戏就成了“战争”。把动作和语言结合起来，边做动作边说，动作和口令有时一致，有时不一致。在训练学生对所学知识掌握的同时，还训练了学生的反应能力。
（二）变换速度
随着学生对知识的掌握逐渐加深，训练的速度可以逐渐加快，这不但适合学习的规律，还使原本枯燥的操练重新显出生气，学生逐渐淡化的新奇感又被激起。
（三）奖励机制的运用
在教育中，我们能体会到表扬和激励对学生起的作用比批评更大。在老师的激励下，学生的探索精神更易发挥，更容易学会原本以为很难学的东西。我常常采用口头表扬，认为给学生物质奖励会使他们变得功利，但在同事们的感染下，偶尔尝试奖励，也取得了很好的激励效果。我用小五星激励学生，常常搞得自己整个黄昏剪五角星，有时，一节课奖多了，自己还有点心疼，最重要的是用多了学生还不稀罕了。其实我们可以尝试用加分的方法，注意分值有区别，加分要敏感，时时注意给学生以表扬，让学生得到认可。这样一来，不但让自己得到解脱，更使奖励更具可变性。
（四）以人为本
教育的对象是人，所以教育应当以人为本。在游戏中，教师的神态、语态、眼神、动作是十分重要的，教师要用主持人一般的激情，让每个学生都感觉到老师的召唤。我相信教师只有投入情感，学生才会给予相应的回报。
当我们感到教学有一丝疲倦的时候，一个小游戏会赶走疲倦，让我们放松那根紧绷的弦，重新振作精神。当我们感到教学有一点枯燥的时候，一个小游戏会把欢笑带来，当笑声充满教室时，我们的心也跟着飞舞。当我们感到教学有些沉闷的时候，一个小游戏让我们的脑袋重新思考，手脑并用，边玩乐边学习。小学英语课堂里的游戏魅力无穷。

In that faraway village, small mountain village ... ..." Ears suddenly echoed the" mother's kiss" this song, my heart cannot calm, reminds me of the great maternal love.
A mother's love is like a tired work well, when you are weak and feeble, a few bites refreshed; motherly love like helpless when hands, when you don't know what to do, just hold on its difficulties will be smoothly done or easily solved; maternal love as the sun in winter, when you cold despair, as long as bathed in the warmth of love, all the disappear in smoke in a moment. A mother's love is like a pastoral poem, remote, pure, and elegant light; a
mother's love is like a deep love song, melodious, lead a person to endless aftertastes; motherly love is like a landscape painting, quiet and beautiful, tranquil and elegant. The maternal love is a growing Yanyinqipan children; maternal love is concerned about their children before bed anxious; motherly love is drifting continuously miss the Earth children; maternal love is the sons and daughters of life concomitant joke.
I am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. What is success? It is what everyone is longing for. Sometimes success would be rather simple. Winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; making a new friend is success; even now I am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.
However, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very complicated. Is fortune success? Is fame success? Is high social status success? No, I don’t think so. I believe success is the realization of people’s hopes and ideals. Nowadays, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. And the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. So most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. But the problem is wether it is real success. We all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. If we keep chasing them, where is the end? What will satisfy us at last? Therefore, we can see, to get the real Success we must need something inside, which is the realization of people’ hopes and ideals.
Different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopes and ideas vary from one another. But I am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. These are the best treasures. So now I am very proud that I have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. It is my success, cause I raise up to challenge my hope.
What is success? Everyone has his own interpretation as I do. But I am sure every success leads to an ever-brighter future. So ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a successful life!
Wish you all good success!
Ladies and gentlemen:
Good morning! Today, the title of my speech is A Lesson from Nature.
Around us , there are plants, animals and many other things. We live in nature, so to keep the balance of nature is very important for us. But today, too many trees are still being cut down in many countries and flood all over the world are getting more and more serious, A lot of land has gone with them. This is a lesson from nature.
When people move into a new place, they often cut down trees or pull out many wild plants to make farmland. They don’t know that trees can stop flood and wind from washing or blowing the earth away, and that many of these wild plants are food for some wild animals. If the animals can’t find enough plants to eat, they will die or have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a kind of wild flowers. The mountain tigers there eat the deer. But people killed many mountain tigers to protect the deer. soon there were so many deer that the ate up all the wild flowers. Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of the young trees .so the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees, then the deer had nothing to eat and many of them died.
The number of trees, deer, tigers, wild flowers and plants has changed much—less and less. We need to do more to keep the balance of nature.
Thank you!
女士们，先生们：
早上好！今天，我演讲的题目是一个自然的课程。
在我们身边，有植物，动物和许多其他的东西。我们生活在自然中，所以保持自然的平衡对我们来说非常重要。但是今天，许多国家和地区的许多国家和地区的洪水都越来越严重，许多国家和地区都越来越严重，许多国家都在和他们一起走了。这是一个自然的教训。
当人们进入一个新的地方，他们经常会砍伐树木或拔出许多野生植物来制造农田。他们不知道，树木可以阻止洪水和风吹走地球的距离，而许多野生植物是一些野生动物的食物。如果动物找不到足够的植物吃，他们就会死亡或离开的地方。
在美国的一个部分，例如，鹿有喜欢吃一种野生花卉。山虎在那里吃鹿。但人们杀了许多山虎保护鹿。很快，有那么多的鹿，吃了所有的野生花卉。于是鹿开始吃小树的绿叶，于是农民们想办法保护他们的树木，于是，鹿什么也吃不到，他们中的许多人都死了。
树木、鹿、老虎、野生花卉和植物的数量变化不多，也越来越少。我们需要做更多的事情来保持自然的平衡。
谢谢你！

优秀英语演讲稿范文
i received a devastating bloplement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence. but no matter hoeone panying 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.
译文:我重树信心
大学生活的几年里，当我参加第一次面试时，我的自信心受到了沉重的打击。我向学生剧团申请出演一个主角，而且我十分自信地认为我会被录用。但是,其中有个剧团成员告诉我:你似乎不太合适出演这个角色，因为你的身高有点问题。我从未遇到过这种情况。我穿着高跟鞋来弥补我的身高，采用心理策略和技巧来掩盖自己信心的缺乏。但是，不论我怎样努力进入角色，感觉还是缺少些什么。
作为英语俱乐部的主席，我为英语晚会组织排演了《白雪公主》短剧。不幸的是，我们找不到合适的人选出演最后一个小矮人。这个角色必须生性幽默，英语流利。突然，所有人的目光都转向了我，我知道那个小矮人就是我了。让我极度奇怪而又高兴的是，一上台，我完全投入到演出中，而且我那幽默的天性被发挥得淋漓尽致。作为一个小矮人，我取得了巨大的成功。
的确，我们中的任何一个人都是千百万中的一员，但我们中的每个人都是一个与众不同的个体。发挥我们自己的个性会改变我们的生活，使它们成为美丽的万花筒。
失去了多样性的世界是个冷漠、乏味的地方。真正的悲剧不是个矮、害羞或丑陋，而是将自己的个性迷失在一个克隆的世界里，那里到处都是典型的酷男孩或无瑕、迷人的好姑娘。
如果让我选择，我宁可面貌五陋，也不愿生活在这样一个世界里。我宁可做一个伴随白雪公主的真实的小矮人，也不愿做白雪公主世界里的一个白雪公主，而随波逐流。我宁可作为一个真实的自我而出现。我愿将自己独特的、与众不同的色彩奉献给多姿多彩的世界。走自己的路，让别人去说吧!
The World's Greatest Swordsman.
At an exhibition of the world's best swordsman, the third-place fencer took the stage. A fly was released, and with an arc of his sword he cut the fly in half. The crowd cheered. Then the second-place man sliced a fly into quarters. A hush fell in anticipation of the world's greatest swordsman.
His blade came down in a mighty arc - but the insect continued on its way! The crowd was aghast. The greatest swordsman had missed his target completely, yet he continued to smile.
"Why are you so happy?" someone yelled. "You missed!"
"Ah," replied the swordsman, "you weren't watching very carefully. They fly lives, yes - but he will never be a father."
ladies and gentlemen, good morning! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.
man’s life is a process of growing up, actually i’m standing here is a growth. if a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then i grow up along with these choices. once i hope i can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know i come here, now i wonder what the future holds for me.
My favourite season is spring.
Everything is very lively in the spring. The flowers are blooming, the trees are growing and the grass is turning green. I like lying on the grass and enjoy the sun shine in the park in the spring. We also can fly a kite, have a picnic, go on a trip or climb the mountain, but I don’t like to do those things, because they will make me feel tired. Some people like to go to the countryside, however I don’t think it is a good place to go for a rest. I don’t like the other season, because they are not very warm: summer is too hot, winter is too cold. While autumn is cool, it isn’t very beautiful.
Last year, I went to the Slender West Lake in Yang Zhou. First we took a boat to travel down the lake, we saw the Qiong flowers on the bank, and they were very beautiful. Then we visited the Five Kiosks Bridge, there were five kiosks on the bridge, and every kiosk has a long history. We sit in the kiosk and took some photos. Last we went to the Fishing Platform. Why do people call it ‘Fishing Platform’? Because the emperor called ‘Qian Long’ in Qing Dynasty visited it. We also fished in it. We had a good time in Yang Zhou.
Anyway, my favourite season is spring.
Cherish what we are enjoying
It is a report about the new planet which holds possibility for life.
It shows that European astronomers have discovered a new planet, they nameit Gliese 581 c.
It is about 20.5 light years from our earth. They estimated the planet'saverage temperature at between 0 and 40 degrees Centigrade. It is orbiting thered dwarf star, Gliese 581.
Most important of all, it’s an earth-like planet. There might be mountin,sea and liquid water.
So the astronomers believe that it is potentially habitable.
However, Gliese 581 c might be "tidally locked" to it’s sun-the dwarf starthe way our moon is to the Earth.
It means that it must always show its same face to its sun, and that whileone side would be too fiercely hot to support life, the other side would be toocold.
This report makes me to realize that how valuable our earth is.
Everyday, we can see sunrise and sunset.
The day and night keeps on exchanging. It’s not too hot in the daytimewhile not to cold at night.
Everyday, I go to school cheerfully in the morning and skip along at theway home as the sun set.
We could experience changes through the four seasons of one year.
Spring is the season sowing seeds. It is pregnant with life and green.
In the Summer, colorful swimming suits frolick in the water happily.
Autumn is the harvest season , the paddy fields and trees are covered withgolden color.
In the winter，We can have snow battle, playing to our hearts' content inthe world of silvery white.
How fortunate we are because we can live on the earth!
We should cherish it, instead of polluting it, spoiling it or evendestroying it.
If One day, it is really angry and stop rotation, that will have be adisaster for us human being.
So, let us protect our earth with our love, making it better and moreharmonious.
Good morning , boys and am pu lijuanand glad to give you a speech about tell us that stre is a state of worry caused by the problem of living , such as too much work or study , heavy responsibilities .Statistics show that stre comes from every detail in our life .Financial problems , poor health , being laid off may be the stre that most adults now are suffering .As students in the university , we are also under our special stre .While study , having to take various tests and submit a project against a deadline may put a great preure on us .And the things that make us felt streed may 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 .I think we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and how we can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job
honorable judges, fellow students:
good afternoon!
recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. the college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. but will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? will we be able to better the lives of others? will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country? the cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. but the cynics are wrong. the college students i see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. we help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
the cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. but again, the cynics are wrong. we care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
as college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. we all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. i believe in all my fellow classmates. though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. i believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. we are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place.
i believe in our future.
尊敬的评委，各位同学：
下午好!
最近，社会上有一场很激烈的争论。大学生是一种稀有特权的享有者，在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是，我们能面对挑战而无所畏惧吗?我们能够改善他人的生活吗?我们能够承担建设祖国未来的重任吗?
怀疑论者说大学生是被宠坏的一代，一丁点挫折都受不了。但是他们错了，我所看到的大学生正在努力的学习独立生活。我们互相帮助打扫卫生，一起上街砍价购物，一起参加兼职工作来赚零花钱。
怀疑论者说我们除了成绩什么都不关心，从而忽略了性格的培养。但是，他们又错了。我们彼此关心，我们向往自由，我们珍惜公正，我们追求真理。上个星期，很多我的同学去验血，为了给患血癌的孩子贡献自己的'力量。
作为大学生，我们是处在人生分水岭的青年。我们都面临一个重要的选择：怀疑人生还是相信自己，每一种都会给我们的人生带来重大的影响，甚至影响我们祖国的未来。我相信我们的同学们，虽然我们依然缺乏经验，甚至有些志气，但是我相信我们有勇气和自信来面对生活的挑战并承担我们的责任。我们正努力准备接受新的任务，用我们所学习的知识将世界变得更美好。
我对我们的未来充满信心。
the ideal teacher may be young or old, tall or short, fat or thin. he should know his subject, but he can make mistakes if he is willing to learn. his personality is as important as his scholarship. the ideal teacher must be enthusiastic. he must never teach anything he himself is not interested in. he should be a bit of anactor and he should not be afraid t express his feelings and express his likes and dislikes. he must like his students and respect them. but he must also respect himself and take pride in his work.
otherwise, he cannot respect his students and win respect from them. the ideal teacher should have an understanding of his students and be able tp relate to them. he needs students’ understanding, too. the ideal teacher should be kind, encouraging, and helpful and he should motivate his students to seek knowledge. the ideal teacher should see his students as individuals and acknowledge their differences. he must know how to encourage the self-development and growth of each of his students. the ideal teacher is one who grows, learns, and improves himself along with his students.
so what about the teachers around you?
classifying rubbish , improving environment good morning, respectable judges, teachers. today, standing here makes me feel really honored and excited. the title of my speech is classifying rubbish , improving environment.
personally, rubbish has been a big headache in beijing. as the year -- is coming ,every citizen has realized green beijing and green olympics will bring the far-reaching impact on beijing and even all china . the scense of rubbish nearly everywhere has given all of us a really bad impression, and i'm sure none of us wish to show off the bad side of beijing to athletes and journalists all over the world, for it would blemish the city's and even china's image and leave a bad reputation. so we really have to work hard on green olympics.
now, we are middle school students. we must improve the sense of protecting the environment and make a contribution to green olympics .
in our life, a lot of rubbish , such as waste paper, plastic bottles ,batteries and so on , is produced every day . after we learnt the passage make our environment more beautiful , we found a lot of rubbish thrown into dustbins could be recycled in fact during our discussion. so we thought it would be better if we could classify rubbish . we told our idea to our teacher and he supported us very much . we became volunteers to classify rubbish . firstly we got three big boxes and put them in a corner of our classroom . one is for waste paper , one for plastics and coke cans and the other is for batteries . with teacher's help ,soon all the students took part in the activity of classifying rubbish .in a month , we collected three boxes of paper , a box of batteries and a box of plastics and coke cans .we sold them for 28 yuan and bought some young trees with the money . we planted the trees around our school . we were all spoken highly of by our school principals. now we keep on the job and are all proud of improving environment .
the world trusts beijing .beijing still has a lot to do to reach the level the world expects, but we have the confidence to make beijing a green city. great changes are taking place, and not far in the future, beijing will be the focus of all worlds' attention. we'll grasp the opportunity and do our best to make the sky bluer, water greener and air fresher by the year .
let's all wish the best for the -- olympics in beijing. thanks for your listening.
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 the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old 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 of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of 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, courag
everytime i am asked what i want to do in the future. i think a minute and say being a doctor is my dream job.
doctor is an other kind of artist who does human art by fighting with diseases and making people feel good. i think it is a pleasure to try my best to bring happiness to others. it is a feeling of pride and i am fond of it. in modern life, a mass of people work day and night to seek wealth and as a result they ignore their health. it is known that strong body is a foundation of beatific life. i dreamed to be an excellent doctor who can help them have a right to enjoy life again. curing people is a doctor's holy responsibility.
i am chinese. i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i've learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i've learned about zhang heng(张衡)and i've learned about zheng he(郑和) says the yellow river civilization has vanished(消失)?i know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇迹)on this fertile land and we're still making miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders (掠夺) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
i once came across an american tourist. she said, “china has a history of five thousand years, but the us only has a history of 200 years. five thousand years ago, china took the lead in the world, and now it is the us that is leading.”my heart was deeply touched by these words. it is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise (鄙视) ourselves. we have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. we have reasons to say proudly： we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑战) are great, but our will is evengreater.
i am chinese. i have inherited (继承) black hair and blackeyes. i have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. i have also taken over responsibility. i am sure, that wherever i go, whatever i do, i shall never forget that i am chinese!
thank you.
We know it is difficult to learn English. My English is very good. I learnEnglish like this. I Listen to the teacher carefully and write the important points down on mynotebooks. After class I revise the lessons. Before class I prepare new lessonsto find out the questions. Then I will listen carefully in class. I also listen to the tape, and speak English with my classmates in theclassroom and on the playground. It’s to improve my listening and speaking. I keep a diary every day to practise my written English. Besides this, I often read English newspapers and magazines to enrich myknowlege on English culture. We will learn English well so long as we learn it hard.
Cupertino is very famous for Apple Computer. And we are very honor to have Steve Jobs to come here tonight to give us special presentation. Mr. Jobs?
苹果如今变得炙手可热Cupertino也沾光不少，今晚我们荣幸地邀请到乔布斯莅临现场。乔总?
Welcome, Mr Jobs: you have a fan club here..
欢迎你，这里貌似都是你的粉丝。
Thank you. Apple's grown like a weed, and as you know, we've always been in Cupertino. Started in an office par, eventually, got the buildings, we are in now the corner of the ends of 280.and those buildings hold maybe 2600 or 2800 people. But we've got almost 12,000 people in the area. So we're renting buildings - not very good buildings, either at an ever-greater radius from our campus and we're putting people in those. It is clear that we need to build new campus, so we just add space.
谢谢大 家。苹果如雨后春笋般快速发展着，而Cupertino一直是我们钟爱的土壤。从开始的工业园到现在的办公大楼280号公路尽头的拐弯处，这几栋楼能容纳 2600到2800名员工。可实际上我们的员工数量超过了120xx。不得已只能用租些差劲的写字楼给员工办公。所以我想把大家转移到离现有园区不远的一 片区域。我们将用新的园区来扩充办公面积。
That doesn't mean we don't need the one we got, we do need it, but we need another one to augment it. So we've got a plan that let's us stay in Cupertino. And we went out and we bought some land and this land is kind of special, to me. When I was 13, I think, I called up... Hewlett and Packard were my idols. And I called up Bill Hewlett, cause he lived in Palo Alto, and there were no unlisted numbers in the phone book, which gives you a clue to my age. And he picked up the phone and I talked to him and I asked him if he'd give me some spare parts for something I was building called a frequency counter. And he did, but in addition to that he gave me something way more important.
现有园区也会继续保留，新园区还在Cupertino，因为这里对我巨有意义。大小我就是惠普创始人 Hewlett和Packard的粉丝。Hewlett住在Palo Alto，13岁那年我给他打了个电话，年头所有的电话号码都印在大部头里，不好意思，暴露了我的年龄。我问他是否能送我些零件做频率计数器。
He gave a job that summer. A summer job at Hewlett-Packard, right here (on) in Santa Clara, off 280, the division that built frequency counters. And I was in heaven. Well, right around that exact moment in time, Hewlett and Packard themselves were walking on some property over here in Cupertino, in Pruneridge, and they ended up buying it. And they built their computer systems division there. And as Hewlett - Packard has been shrinking lately, they decided to sell that property and we bought it.
他不仅答应 了，还给了我一份工作。惠普的暑期实习，就在Snata Clara 280号公路旁边，我被分在计频器部门，简直像去了天堂。就在这个时候，惠普在Pruneridge买了块地，并在那里设立了计算机系统部。
We bought that and we bought some adjacent property that all used to be apricot trees, apricot orchards and we've got about 150 acres. And we should like to put a new campus on that so that we can stay in Cupertino. And we've come up - we've hired some great architects to work with, some of the best in the world, I think. And we've come up with a design that puts 12,000 people in one building.
最近惠普并不 景气，有意出售这块不动产，我们就买了下来。顺带还卖笑来原来的一片杏园，总面积有150英亩了。我想在哪儿建个新园区，继续留在Cupertino。我 们请来最优秀的设计师，希望设计一栋能容纳120xx人的大楼。
Think about that, that''s rather odd 12,000 people in a building, in one building. But, we've seen these office parks with lots of building and they get pretty boring pretty fast. So we'd like to do something better than that. And I'd like to take you through what we like to do. So this is supposed to work here. Here we go. Can you see this? So here is we are today, which is on Infinite Loop drive, against the intersection of D' Anza and the 280.
一栋楼装120xx人，是不是跟中国的学生宿舍一样不可思议?你们看过一些工业园区空间拥 挤、设计单调，我们希望改变这一切。给大家看看园区蓝图，看得见么?苹果总部就在这里280号公路和D' Anza十字路口的交汇处。
Mr Jobs, yeah, you drawn as print, that's high-tech we've. Use your finger. Just point in the air...
乔总，你可以用演示器，我们这儿也是有高科技的。
What we've done is we bought this land right here. We try to buy the apartments at the corner but they are not for sale, so we couldn't buy those. And we bought everything else. And the campus we like to build there is one building holds 12,000 people. And it is pretty amazing building. Let me show it to you. It's a little like a spaceship landed, there it is, and it's got this gorgeous courtyard in the middle, but a lot more. So let's take a close look at it. It's a circle.
我们买下这 块地，本来还想买这初拐角，可对方不卖，我们又不能强拆，所以只得放弃。我们打算在园区里建一栋楼，容纳120xx人。听起来很炫，看起来更炫。华丽吧! 像不像太空飞船?中间还有个大院子，还不止呢。让我们凑近了看，办公室的外观是个圆环。体形优美，造价不菲，所有的玻璃都是弧形的线条。我们建造苹果零售 店的经验派上用场了。
It's curved all the way around. If you build things, this is not the cheapest way to build something. There is not a straight piece of glass in this building. It's all curved. We've used our experience making retail buildings all over the world now, and we know how to make the biggest pieces of glass in the world for architectural use. We can make it curve all the way around the building. And you can see what it look like. It is pretty cool.
硕大的弧形玻璃难不倒我们。让玻璃墙绕场一周。是不是很酷。目前整个园区只有20%的绿化，浪费了不少地方。我们向来一次乾坤大挪 移。把停车场统统发配到地下，让绿化面积从20%暴增到80%。目的不言而喻，我们课不想像别的园区那样被人诟病。目前园区里有3800棵树，未来会翻一 倍。我们聘请斯坦福的.园林设计师来设计园区。
Again, today, about 20% of the space is landscaping, several big asphalt parking lots. So 20% of this is landscape, we want to completely change this. And we want to make 80% of landscape, and the way we're gonna do this is we're gonna put most of the parking underground. So we can have 80% of landscape, and you can see what we've in mind. I mean there is nothing like this in the property now. It's pretty bad. Today there are 3700 trees on the property we'd like to just almost double that. We've hired one of the senior arborists from Stanford actually who is very good with indigenous trees around this area. So we'd like to plant a lot of trees including some apricot orchards. Again you can see what it might be like. This is some of the infrastructure. The main building, we have parking underneath the main building.
除了杏树，还会种其他植物。这是建成后的样子。这是我们的主楼，设有地下停车场。可惜地下停车场不够用，所以 我们另设了一处停车点。新办公楼是一座四层圆形建筑，中间有一个大庭院。摩天大厦我不感冒，我喜欢矮建筑。保持和Cupertino现有建筑的高度一致。 我们的工作要对着电脑一刻不停的写程序，所以正常的工作离不开能源中心。要是没电，大家只能回家洗了睡。所以需要后备电源，能源中心将用天然气或其他绿色 能源发电。我们希望将其作为主要的电力来源，把国家电网用作后备电源。这里将修建一个大礼堂，我们就不用像昨天那样跑到旧金山去开会了。
That's not enough unfortunately. We have a parking structure here as well. The building's four stories high as is the parking structure. There's nothing high here at all. We want the whole place human scale. It's actually about the same as we have in Cupertino right now.. An energy center. We deal with - people using, sitting at computers all day writing software. And if the power goes out on the grid we get to send everybody home. So we have to have backup power to power the place in the event brownouts and stuff. And I think what we're gonna end up doing is making the energy center our primary source of power. Because we can generate power with Natural Gas and other ways that can be cleaner and cheaper and use the grid as our backup.
这里是健身中心和 研发大楼，这个地方专门用来做测试，里面木有员工。这就是我们的设想。苹果现有120xx员工，但可能增加到13000人。我们希望将其作为主要的电力来源，把国家电网用作后备电源。这里将修建一个大礼堂，我们就不用像昨天那样跑到旧金山去开会了。这里是健身中心和 研发大楼，这个地方专门用来做测试，里面木有员工。这就是我们的设想。苹果现有120xx员工，但可能增加到13000人。
We've got an auditorium because we put on presentations. Much like we did yesterday but we have to go to San Francisco to do them. Fitness center and some R&D facilities, these are just things that where we do testing and we need some buildings to test in and there's hardly any people in them. So this is roughly the kind of thing we're thinking about. We think about 12,000 people, I put 13,000 on the slides, just because we may make a little luckier than 12,000. We're up roughly 40% in people V.S. What the site has been used for already and we're increasing space to 3.1 million square feet. So 20% increase in space. The landscaping though increases by 350%, which is nice, trees by 60%. The surface parking goes down by 90%. And so I think the overall feeling of the place is gonna be zillion times better than it is now with all the asphalt. And the building footprint actually goes down by 30%. So, we wanna take the space and in many cases making it smaller. We're putting more of desirable things on the space and that's what we like to do. So just wanna give you a look at it. This is a cafe. We have cafe as our facilities. And this cafe will, you know, feed the better part of the 3,000 people sitting. That's what you need when you 12,000 people in the campus. So that's what we're looking at. I'd love to answer your questions if you have any.
将来这里可以多容纳40%的员 工，增加20%的使用面积，这样总面积大道了310万平方英尺。绿化面积增长350%，这个就厉害啦，植树量增长60%，地上停车面积减少90%。你会自 上这片土地的，这比一滴沥青给力多了。建筑占地面积将减少30%。减少建筑面积。这样有更多的空间留给想象力去发挥。这里是间咖啡厅，这个可以有，你懂 的。它能容纳3000人同时就餐。足足有120xx名员工在此贡献智慧，所以我们需要那么大的容量。我的介绍到此为止，有什么问题吗?
A New Head Teachers Address to His ClassMy dear fellow boys and girls, my friends, When I stand before the teachers desk, or, I would rather say when I stand on the stage, it seems to me that the purple curtains of both sides are drawing open gently.

亲爱的同学们、朋友们：
当我站在这讲台上，不，应当说是舞台上，我似乎觉得两侧的紫色帷幕缓缓拉开，最富有生气的戏剧，就要开始了。最令我兴奋的是，这戏剧拥有一群忠于自己角色的演员，那就是高一（2）班的全体成员！这戏剧或许是人世间最长的了，因为要持续三年时间，那是整个高中阶段。
为此，我愿意做一名热情的报幕员，此时此刻向观众宣布：高一（2）班的戏剧开始了！
我想，我这个班主任首先应该是一名合格的导演，我渴望导出充满时代气息的戏剧来：团结、紧张、严肃、活泼是它的主调；理解、友爱、开拓、创新是它的主要故事。作为导演，我将精心设计出生动的情节、典型的角色、迷人的故事奉献给所有的演员──今日在座的每一位，但你们要最大程度地开发你们的才华。
这舞台是你们的，你们是当然的主角，我心甘情愿地做一名配角，尽我的力量竭诚为主角服务、效劳。而在你们成功的演出中，我只想默默地分享一点点成功的快慰。
不仅如此，我还要做一名最虔诚的观众，为你们精彩的演出微笑、流泪、鼓掌、欢呼，我愿意握住每一个人的手，诚心诚意地道一句：祝贺你的成功。
三年之后，当你们最后与自己的中学时代告别，将要登上人生的大舞台时，你们会深深地感到，这小舞台所给予你的一切是多么珍贵，这是一段多么难忘的'人生旅途。
三年之后，当我们高一（2）班的戏剧舞台徐徐落下帷幕的时候，我愿意听到你们这样评价我的工作：列老师，你是我们满意的导演，也是一名不错的配角，更是我们喜欢的观众。
谢谢各位的掌声，从掌声中我感到了你们的理解和支持，虽然序幕刚刚拉开。
预祝我们的合作顺利、成功！

i taught you how to do so many things… to eat well, to dress well… toconfront life…
when at some moment i lose the memory or the thread of our conversation…let me have the necessary time to remember… and if i cannot do it;do not becomenervous… as the most important thing is not my conversation but surely to bewith you and to have you listening to me…
if ever i do not want to eat, do not force me. i know well when i need toand when not.
when my tired legs do not allow me walk… give me your hand… the same way idid when you gave your first steps.
and when someday i say to you that i do not want to live any more…

try to understand that my age is not lived but survived.
some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, i always wanted

A proverb says, ’education does not mean teaching people to know what they do not know ,it means teaching them to behave as they do not believe” . for me ,you are a good teacher to help me make differences .
I am so stressful when I stand befor a lot of people ,so it Is hard for me to make a speech in public. In order to overcome my drawback ,I chose the class that you teach .the first time I met you ,I found you are so kind to us ,what is more ,you are patience .no matter how bad the speech we made ,you always encourage us to go ahead. Owing to this reason, I had made twice speech ,even though I knew how bad It is .
There were two things that you gave me a deep impression:
On one class ,I read a conversation that appeared in ppt. you walked towards me ,and said: this is a conversation ,not an article “ I did not know what I s you point that time ,so you read it for me . at last ,I got it .after that case ,when I read the conversation or make conversation with my parterner ,I will think of you suggestion .thus ,I believe I will so a good job next time .
what is more , you help me to become more inimi.
Oneday My parterner illed ,so he did not keep me company to the class .so I was alone . but we had a conversation ,I could do nothing but to read it myself ,by that time ,you asked me to make the conversation with the girl who Is behind me .and you told me that a boy should be more i….what you said give me a deep impression and I know the next time what I supposed to do .
what I want to talk is more than what I have talked .
the class you taught Is called “spoken english ”.this is a pratical class. Many people interested in it and decide to learn it .as it is know to all ,almost of us have a poor spoken level. So it is hard for you to encourage us to practice our spoken English . however ,you told us that all of us should make at least a speech at the end of the semester in the first class. Besides, we also have to make several conversations with our parterner. Though some students were disagree with you ,but in my view, you have made a wise decision.
In our class , first ,we will have enough time for our speech. In general, every class we would have four classmates to give us their speech. of course ,some speech is pretty good ,the student could make his idea clear and prounouce well. But most of the speech is just so so. but you inspired us everytime.
Second ,we will learn some useful sentence for our spoken english , we usually have a conversation in this part. Third ,we will watch a video. Sometimes , we will have a short story which is meaningful in the blackboard ,then you will help us to learn something from it . every week , I was very glad to have your class for the sake of you charming .
In here , I want to tell you that you have done a good job to us ,I am proud of you . in fact ,most teachers in your position are just complish their job ,you will get a good grade no matter how you really learn in his or her class . however ,in my mind ,you are different .first and formost, you are responsible to your class .that is to say , you try your best to help us improve our spoken English . and you always prepared for the class .so we could learn something new in your class ,this is the reason why I am so interest in this class. Then ,you were a wise men for you know a lot .in your class ,we not barely learn English ,but we also learn something else . for example ,we would know the custome in other country or something about Chinese history .last but not least , you are kind and patience .
Every coin has two sides . in my opinion ,you are so kind to these who absence for class . there are about 100 students apply for the class ,but there always just half of them appear in
class.
You are a good teacher. yes,I think so !best wishies to you .
Three years ago, when Tyrone Duncan was jobless, recovering from a spinal injury and a stintin a homeless shelter, some volunteers at his transitional housing site encouraged him to run with them as they trained for a race.
So it’s no surprise when Duncan says running turned his life around. He is far from the only person in sneakers to make that claim. A growing number of national organizations are using the sport to help kids and adults facing such challenges as homelessness, drugs and cancer. They have a variety of names — Back on My Feet, Achilles International, Alex’s Lemonade Stand, Run to Recover — but all have turned to running for the psychological and physiological benefits that training for a race can bring.
Hold Fast To Your Dreams
I have a dream today。
I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted， every hill and mountain shall be made low， the rough places will be made plain， and the crooked places will be made straight， and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed， and all flesh shall see it together。
Wow， what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King。 But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up， and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams。
However， we meed dreams。 They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality。 They keep us going。 Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great。 When we were little kids， we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy， something significant。 Now what we need to do is to maintain them， refresh them and turn them into reality。 However， the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions。 Well， just start with concrete objectives and stick to it。 Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future。 Through our talents， through our wits， through our endurance and through our creativity， we will make it。
Hold fast to dreams， for if dreams die， life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly。 Hold fast to dreams， for when dreams go， life is a barren field frozen with snow。 So my dear friends， think of your old and maybe dead dreams。 Whatever it is， pick it up and make it alive from today。

抓牢你的梦想
我这天有一个梦想。
我梦想有一天，幽谷上升，高山下降，崎岖之地变平原，曲折之路成坦途。圣光展露，满照人间。
这对马丁路德金是怎样的一个梦想啊。但是这个变化着的世界似乎在告诉我，在成长的过程中，人们却不知不觉把他们的梦想弄丢了，而我自我也有时会觉得在告别很多童年的梦。
然而，我们是需要梦想的。梦想滋养我们的灵魂，梦想代表着我们被现实拉垮时依然具有的期望。它鼓励我们不断前进。大多数成功人士都是梦想家，同时也是普通人，只是他们敢于梦想敢于成就伟大。当我们还是孩子的时候，我们都梦想过做
做一番大事业，此刻应当做的就是保存好那些梦想，再度恢复它们，并将它们实现。但是最难的是我们通常不明白怎样付诸实施。那么，就从体的目标开始，坚持去做吧。不要让那些莫名的恐惧迷惑了我们的双眼，影响了我们对未来的信念。用我们的天资和智慧，用我们的耐力和创造力，我们必须会实现梦想。
抓牢你的梦想，因为如果梦想死亡，生活就成了一只折断翅膀的鸟再也不能飞翔。抓牢你的梦想，因为如果失去梦想，生命就成了一块覆盖着冰雪的贫瘠的冻土。亲爱的朋友们，想想那些过去的或已经死去的梦想吧。不管是什么，重新将它捡起，并从这天开始让它重生。
On January 13, Jin Weijie, a teacher from Longhua Chinese-English Experimental School in Baoan rushed to save four primary school students and sacrifice herself.
On March 31, a traffic accident happened in Jiangsu Province, once again, a primary school teacher, Yin Xuemei, saved six primary school students’ lives, while losing her own. This touched my heart deeply. Who is the greatest? The teacher! If it was me, if I happened to be there, I would do the same thing, because I am a teacher, too.
Working as a teacher, maybe there is nothing special in their life. But we have a belief deep within, that is --we must protect our students, keep our children safe, we won’t let any of them get hurt. Just as what the commissioner of education in Jiangsu Province said: “The accident happened so quickly, it happened in a flick of an eye, there is no time to think about it or hesitate, saving the others is an instinctive action. She did it only because she was of great stature. She forgot about herself in the heat of the moment. ”
There is no doubt, teachers are worth all respect! Teachers are selfless! They impart knowledge to the students, they offer ways and skills of learning to their students, and they offer their lives with no hesitancy when necessary! So I am proud of being a teacher. I like students, teaching will be my life-time career.
Choosing the right career is very important, most of us spend a great part of our lives doing jobs. Some of us have become very successful. Mainly because they have chosen appropriate careers which match their talents and stimulate their interests . I prefer teaching English. English is my favorite. In my opinion, teaching English is more wonderful than any other subject.
There are thousands of different languages in the world. Which language is the most important? As we know, English is an international language, and it could be used all over the world. English is becoming more and more important and popular in China. We adults learn English, school students learn English, even the babies in the kindergarten learn English. It’s a necessary language if you want to go abroad, It’s an essential quality for the researchers to get the latest information in the world quickly. In an age of fast communication, if we want to learn about the outside world, English is definitely the language we should know.
Let’s take a look at a practical viewpoint, if you’re looking for a job that can provide you a good position and a high salary, understanding English often makes it much easier. It can’t be denied that English is very important if you want to make a good living. English is a very important language no matter what you do or where you go, Millions of people would like to master English, but it’s not a piece of cake.
So being an English teacher is good. I am fortunate that I can express my opinions in English. So I am lucky I can teach English.
Furthermore, Being an English teacher, I am very content. I am so grateful to have a life that is filled with teenagers’ trust and love. When my students answer my questions correctly, when they discuss passionately, when they communicate with foreigners fluently, when I see the slowest in thought make progress, I know I have done a great job. Nothing can replace my pleasure.
So being an English teacher, I have got fantastic pleasure. It is English that makes my life wonderful. It is English that makes me feel confident. It is English that makes me different
If there is another chance for me to choose my occupation, I won’t choose anything except being an English teacher.
I enjoy my job, and I love my life.
A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "
ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you inance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody gro men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
es from every detail in our life . financial problems , poor health , being laid off may be the stress that most adults noe other problems will also annoy us . i think we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and how we can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job .
Good morning everyone!
My name is Jie Lidi. Today, my topic is: “Confidence”. As we all know, failure is the mother of success. But What I want to say is that success is the child of confidence. Without confidence, things can becoenegative and uncofortable.I remember, during an English class, I wanted to make a sentence using the word "listen". I should have said: "I listen to the Voice of America" but I was too nervous and said "I listen to the Noise of America". Everybody in the class laughed. Since then I wanted to train myself to be confident. Now, confidence makes me brave and courageous. Take this speech for example. I wanted to enter this copetition,but I would feel very embarrassed if I made mistakes. Just then, I thought about my dream. My dream is to becoea scientist when I grow up. If I am not confident, how can I overcoedifficulties I face? If I am not confident, how can I succeed in developing myself in the future? I will do it! Today, I am making a speech in public and I feel proud and confident!
I am sure, in the future, with confidence, I will go forward-always forward. Confidence will make my dreams coetrue!
Thank you!
“My name is Li Jiatong.”榆林高新小学的操场上传来阵阵英语朗诵声。咦，这是怎么回事呢？原来是学校在举行英语演讲比赛呢！20 年9月12日，对我来说，非常难忘。不仅因为我参加了这次英语演讲比赛，更重要的是我战胜了自己。
比赛之前，老师问大家谁愿意参加比赛，同学们都积极举手，踊跃参加。我也好想参加比赛，可是怕自己演讲得不好，没有勇气举手。这时，老师好像看出了我的心思，问我：“李佳桐，你想参加吗？”我低声说：“老师，我想参加，可是我怕演讲不好。”老师说：“没关系，重在参与嘛，越是胆怯，越要锻炼自己。”于是我报了名。
回到家里，我就开始天天对着镜子练习演讲，不放过一个细节。真是“台上一分钟，台下十年功”。经过我的不懈努力，我终于能大方自然熟练地演讲了。
星期四下午，比赛正式开始了，我穿着漂亮的白纱裙来到赛场。首先是高年级的大哥哥大姐姐们演讲，他们演讲的十分精彩，给了我很大的压力。马上就要轮到我了，我心里别提有多紧张了，手心直冒冷汗。这时，一双温暖的大手搭在我的肩上，原来是老师。老师亲切地对我说：“别紧张，老师相信你。”我一下子放松了许多。
该我上场了，我努力克服内心的胆怯，开始了演讲。不知不觉我完全进入了状态，大大方方地演讲着。演讲完了，台下响起了雷热烈的掌声，我偷偷地看了一眼评委老师，只见评委老师的脸上露出了赞
许的笑容，我就知道自己表现得不错。终于主持人宣布比赛结果了，我获得了二等奖，我心里乐开了花。
这件事已经过去半年了但我我仍然记忆犹新。每当我看到那张金灿灿的奖状我就暗暗对自己说：“李佳桐，你能行。”
