she kindled a third match. again shot up the flame; and now she was sitting under a most beautiful christmas tree ,far larger, and far more prettily decked out, than the one she had seen last christmas eve through the glass doors of the rich merchant's house. hundreds of wax-tapers lighted up the green branches, and tiny painted figures, such as she had seen in the shop-windows, looked down from the tree upon her. the child stretched out her hands towards them in delight, and in that moment the lights of the match warm quenched; still, however, the christmas candles burned higher and higher， she beheld them beaming like stars in heaven; one of them fell, the lights streaming behind it like a long, fiery tail.
“now some one is dying,” said the little girl, softly, for she had been told by her old grandmother， the only person who had ever been kind to her, and who was now dead that whenever a star falls an immortal spirit returns to the god who gave it.
she struck yet another match against the wall; it flamed up, and surrounded by its light, appeared before her that same dear grandm

My speech is over, thank you.
To accomplish great things, you must dream great dreams. But dreaming alone isn’t enough, you must believe in your dreams and you must act. Without action, even the most grand of dreams evaporate into the ether when left unnurtured in the misty realms of the mind.
Do you dare to be a dreamer? Prepare to go it alone. Dreamers build bridges between the known and the unknown. As you dance your dreams into reality, those who can’t hear the music may think you a fool. Pay no heed to those who would kill your dreams, small minds always do that. Great minds will encourage you that you can become great too.
Afraid you haven’t got what it takes? Then get it! Feed your mind the mental food it hungers for.
There was a dog breeder who had two dogs that raced every weekend. He took bets and always won. One week he’d bet on his black dog, and the black dog would win. The next week he’d bet on the white dog, and folks seeing the black dog win the week before would bet, but this time the white dog would win. Why? One week he’d feed the dog he wanted to win a grand diet, and just give the other dog enough to survive. The dog that was well fed was stronger and would always win the race.
Your mind is the same way; it grows stronger or weaker with what you feed it. The diet of the mind is what gives you the confidence, courage, knowledge, and the direction you need to succeed in your dreams, or keep you from them.You can build your mind up or tear it down. The choice is yours and you make it every day.
Have you been waiting for the right time to reach for your dreams? Have you been waiting for the right circumstances to reach for your dreams? Have you been waiting for the right opportunity to reach for dreams? My, you’re patient, aren’t you? You could be waiting forever, you know. Time is an illusion. Circumstances are what you make them. Opportunity is a whisper that waits for your invitation, it doesn’t burst in and shout its arrival.
Now is the right time. Circumstances change when you take action. Opportunity is yours for the making. So what are you really waiting for?
Here’s how you’ll know if you’ve become all you can be: If you’re alive, you haven’t.
good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
today, my speech is about talents,in my opionion, talents are indispensable in nowadays society. as is known to all that the fight among countries is actually the fight among talents.
first, i'd like to define the word"talent" in my idea, a talent is one person who is good at or expertised in some or multiple areas. nowadays, as the world developing goes on , if one country want to rank top or do a good job in the world, the country must have many talents.
for example, china, the biggest developing country in the world, in the past 100 years, is always invaded by other countries, why ,the reason is that china at that time had not so many talents. if they had anti-intrusion leader talents in the war, needless to say,they would have beat those big powers.if they had talents in weapons manufacturing, nodody dares to provoke us.however, nowadays, it's a totally different situation, china has become powerfulin all over the world, why ? because there are many talents serving the country, the civilians become more and more literated.
more and more people go to university,more and more people come to receive further education. so what is that in return,talents in army protect our country from invasion, talents in commerce help make our economy keep in improving, talents in aerospace make the world see chinese manned spacecraft flying. talents in sports make china rank the first in the olympic games......
to sum up, talents will play a more and more impoetant role in the world, if one country intends to flourish, he must foster talents as many as they can ,that's all,thank you.
thank you, mr. chairman.
mr. chairman, i join my colleague mr. rangel in thanking you for giving the junior members of this committee the glorious opportunity of sharing the pain of this inquiry. mr. chairman, you are a strong man, and it has not been easy but we have tried as best we can to give you as much assistance as possible.
earlier today, we heard the beginning of the preamble to the constitution of the united states: "we, the people." it's a very eloquent beginning. but when that document was completed on the seventeenth of september in 1787, i was not included in that "we, the people." i felt somehow for many years that george washington and alexander hamilton just left me out by mistake. but through the process of amendment, interpretation, and court decision, i have finally been included in "we, the people."
today i am an inquisitor. an hyperbole would not be fictional and would not overstate the solemnness that i feel right now. my faith in the constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. and i am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction, of the constitution.
"who can so properly be the inquisitors for the nation as the representatives of the nation themselves?" "the subjects of its jurisdiction are those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men." and that's what we're talking about. in other words, [the jurisdiction comes] from the abuse or violation of some public trust.
it is wrong, i suggest, it is a misreading of the constitution for any member here to assert that for a member to vote for an article of impeachment means that that member must be convinced that the president should be removed from office. the constitution doesn't say that. the powers relating to impeachment are an essential check in the hands of the body of the legislature against and upon the encroachments of the executive. the division between the two branches of the legislature, the house and the senate, assigning to the one the right to accuse and to the other the right to judge, the framers of this constitution were very astute. they did not make the accusers and the judgers -- and the judges the same person.
we know the nature of impeachment. we've been talking about it awhile now. it is chiefly designed for the president and his high ministers to somehow be called into account. it is designed to "bridle" the executive if he engages in excesses. "it is designed as a method of national inquest into the conduct of public men." the framers confided in the congress the power if need be, to remove the president in order to strike a delicate balance between a president swollen with power and grown tyrannical, and preservation of the independence of the executive.
the nature of impeachment: a narrowly channeled exception to the separation-of-powers maxim. the federal convention of 1787 said that. it limited impeachment to high crimes and misdemeanors and discounted and opposed the term "maladministration." "it is to be used only for great misdemeanors," so it was said in the north carolina ratification convention. and in the virginia ratification convention: "we do not trust our liberty to a particular branch. we need one branch to check the other."
"no one need be afraid" -- the north carolina ratification convention -- "no one need be afraid that officers who commit oppression will pass with immunity." "prosecutions of impeachments will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community," said hamilton in the federalist papers, number 65. "we divide into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused." i do not mean political parties in that sense.
Once upon a time, there was a sad elephant. He was dirty and stinky, because he could not reach to wash his back. All the other animals didn’t play with him because he was smelly.
Elephant sat under a tree, where nobody could see him. He started to cry. His head was hanging down, crying big tears. He sat and cried for days. One day, when his tears had dried up, he went to itch his head and he felt a bump on his back. Then he noticed his nose had stretched because it had got wet with all the crying and it was now a long trunk which had hit him on his back.
He went to the river and got his trunk, put it in the water and sucked the water up. Then he sprayed his back with water.
All the other animals came over to him and said “you are so clean and smell so lovely. Do you want to play with us?”
The elephant was so happy and said “yes.”
The End.
一、Daydreaming life
To have everything done by my robot, I sit in the garden en of my villa and watch the pink snow flowing in the sky with all kinds of delicious food circling around me. I reach out for the goodies. Ling-ling-ling! Suddenly the telephone rings. Oh, it’s only a daydream.
With the mixture of romance and imagination, the girl who likes daydreaming appears to be here. Martin Luther King had his big dream that is to liberate his Negro brothers, and I have my small daydreams. But we share something in common which is that we all desire for a bright future. With my love for delicious food, I always daydreamed of many goodies being severed to me. Although I awoke every time without having a taste at those goodies, these interesting experience have relaxed my brain, and the hope for a bright future has encouraged me to be more diligent to realize my daydreams. The necessary element romance has helped me to have more fun in my daily life and get closer to the beautiful nature. The element imagination has helped me to be more creative in my study and daily life.
But daydreams need a limit. I only allows myself to daydream at the right time and for certain times for fear that I would get too far from the real life or will be too lazy to work hard lost in those remote daydreams.
二、Daydreaming life
Maybe I will find a job that will realize my daydreams and offers me more time for daydreaming, but who knows? Another daydream will probably change my idea.
Days and days, dreams and dreams, and that are daydream. Young girls, enough imagination, and that are my daydreams.
Who is the girl that is standing there? Lovely dress, beautiful shoes, and a prince who is holding her hands, dancing at the ball. Oh! A daydream once again. Thank you for listening!

早上/晚上/下午好,女士们,先生们:
今天,我的演讲是关于人才,在我opionion,人才在当今社会是不可或缺的。众所周知,国家间的斗争实际上是人才之间的战斗。
首先,我想定义“人才”这个词在我的想法,才能是一个人谁是擅长或公司部分或多个领域。如今,随着世界发展,如果一个国家想要排名顶部或世界上做得很好,国家必须有很多人才。例如,中国,世界上最大的发展中国家,在过去的120xx年里,总是被其他国家的入侵,当时为什么,原因是中国没有如此多的人才。如果他们anti-intrusion战争领袖人才,不用说,他们会打败那些大国。如果他们在武器制造人才,nodody敢惹我们。然而,如今,这是一个完全不同的情况下,中国已成为全世界powerfulin,为什么?因为有很多人才服务于国家,平民越来越有文化。越来越多的人上大学,越来越多的人开始接受进一步的教育。在军队是什么,作为回报,才能保护我们的国家免受入侵,人才在商业的帮助使我们的经济保持改善,人才航空让世界看到中国载人飞船飞行。人才在运动使中国排名第一个在奥运会上……
总之,人才将起到越来越impoetant在世界上的角色,如果一个国家想要蓬勃发展,他必须尽可能多培养人才,这是所有,谢谢你。
hello,everyone.it is my great hornor and pleasure to share my movie preferance with you. as a movie fan, i have watched numbers of movies both domestic and abroad. maybe you are curious about which one is the most favourate among them. actually, it is hard for me to tell the best,because each prominent film has its characteristics. some of them are humorous to make you laugh, some are driving you burst to tears.
but it is indeed impressive to me to review the utmost disliked film-----"hero" which is directed by zhang yimou, in . although this film show numourous famous filmstars, but you can tell nothing more than its great sceens. what worse, the whole movie just tell a story of the failure assassinate the emperor of qin dynasty. it is hollow on the theme and mindlein the view of narrator. it is a not-uncommon phenomenon which is arising in china movie market. i think it is really a shame to invest so much money to creat a film about nothing.
as i consideration, a good film should belongs to a spiritual production which either to help us relax or improve our artific taste.thank you for your listen.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!
Etiquette is not only the person, the embodiment of education is also a manifestation of personal morality and social morality. Is the face of the city, is the country face.
Therefore, learning etiquette not only in strong personal qualities, outside the plastic units better able to lubricate and improve interpersonal relationships.
Has a history of 5,000 years of civilization as the "ceremonies", stressing civilization, with rituals, but also promote the national culture, an important way to demonstrate national spirit.
We are in society, identity, role is constantly changing. We hate others this moment, the next moment people often become the object of hate. These are none other than "informal," the act of.
When we, as tourists often, always in accordance with their own interest, spitting, spit chewing gum, trampled grass, scrawl graffiti on the cultural relics; when we are the people of the time, it is spitting the phenomenon of hate to write graffiti.
When we get along with classmates when the students always complain about the "informality", whether at work or life to speak through things; and our management are often too lazy to "section."
When we take the bus, always able to grab a seat for the complacent, pushed, stepped on, when people say I'm sorry from the disdain; when we were pushed or stepped on, when they do not always say sorry if the brooding and even punches thrown; the time when we are old, standing threw the car, always eager to own some people to not stand for a seat.
With the social development and progress, people's spiritual needs levels and increasing the value of self-awareness, we want to understand more, be respected. There is no doubt that the current situation, the ritual is not individual industries, individual community's needs, but all the people needed.
Train to run fast, depends on the locomotive. At home, if parents can take the lead; in schools, if teachers can take the lead; in the unit, if leaders can take the lead; in the window unit, window staff if we can take the lead ... ... by extension, to all of China to promote , universal civilization, etiquette, if the capital more than 10 million people to take the lead in this head; if everyone starts from me and from now on ... ...
No doubt, our civility to popularize the work will be easier. Then our spiritual civilization and material civilization would be like to achieve rapid development. We are 1.3 billion people, mental outlook, certainly a new look, people are living in a friendly, tolerant, caring, warm community atmosphere!
Etiquette, stressing that the "respect-based."
Want others to respect you, first of all have to respect people.
Those bad habits, map the moment fast, lost to one's personality and dignity. Do not respect even their own people, other people will respect you?
My speech is over, thank you!
If a crystal of life, beautiful and fragile.
I do not know may be laughter when the face yesterday, today has disappear yesterday dynamic figure, today there are only cold on the body, yesterday pulse beating heart has stopped beating today. Life is such a heavy, heavy I do not dare to look too.
However, in reality it would feel no lingering someone to give up their lives, shocking and regrettable. A couple of days ago to see an article written last year, and a 13-year-old boy in a position decisively, jump from a height under fly. All online games only because he got hooked on "Warcraft", was possessed by the Devil, not only to write the game notes, and finally select a game to die, fly from 24 floors, he only lived for 13 years, all only just begun, has to rush the end. Is necessary to test a few days, in the past always heard that a certain candidate because a bad grade or bad mental quality will be at the examination before or after the examination committed suicide, I do not know this year what is going to happen.
With age, our mental capacity should also be subject to growth, there must be a be able to bear the external pressure and the courage to overcome difficulties, in the face of the question to think of ways to solve the problem, rather than evade, or even choose to win is not never really failed, but one hundred times in the fall after the article at first have the courage to stand up when it sounds as if it is very difficult, in fact, very si-mp-le, we want to do again and again only the after a fall at its feet. No one lives forever are the winner, the failure is not terrible, terrible loss of face are the failure of courage, can not afford to encounter difficulties, it will only want to escape the just, want to die to the end of this is the real failure. Is it true can die on the end of it? Relax their death to their loved ones did not think about the pain and hurt caused by their release brought the others along the path of endless troubles, this is how selfish and irresponsible, how childish behavior. We should be together on the physical and mental maturity.
Often in the classroom every day to hear someone shouting ah , I want to jump off the upstairs ah ... ... In fact, they do not know, life is a kind of greatest happiness, Happiness is a unique, life care are required in detail to the treasure. If you can not give up easily, it is undoubtedly the lack of respect for life, with such a person does not have a life!
The dead now rested in peace, people living in silence can only wish them, and then continue to take their own road.
Good afternoon, honorable judges, dear teachers & friends.
I'm Lai Senhan from the University of International Business & Economics. Do you know what date is it today? Today is the Olympic Date. I'm so glad to stand here today to share my idea about Beijing Olympic Games together with you all. The title of my speech is: what can we do for Beijing Olympic Games?
First of all, let me tell you a story that happened 2 years ago. At the end of August, 20xx, when I decided to come to Beijing for study, my friends hel* * rewell Party for me. They said: after your graduation, you should look for a job in Beijing, and then in 20xx, we shall go to visit you during the Olympic Games. I laughed and answered: OK, no problem!
Time flied and 2 years passed. Now I am a graduate. My teachers and classmates always ask me: what's your plan after your graduation? Go back home, stay in Beijing, or go to some other places? And I always answer: I will stay in Beijing. I make this decision not because of my promise to my friends 2 years ago, but because: I've fallen in love with Beijing! I'm eager to welcome the coming Olympic Games together with my fellow countrymen, and I wish I could do something for the Olympics & for the city.
As we know, Beijing
Good afternoon,teachers and students!I’m very glad to be here and have a speech.Today,my title is Everyone’s Olympics.The 29th Olympic Games will be held in our country in 20__.As a great many people will visit our country,the government will build new hotels,a huge stadium,and a fine new swimming pool.
The games will be held just outside the capital and the whole area will be called “Olympic city”.
In a way,building Olympic Games is an image-creating undertaking.The first and foremost thing is to let people fall in love with the city at first sight,attracting them by its unique image.With a concept inspired by the famed Silk Road,our Torch Relay will break old idea,traveling from beginning through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-Greek,Indian and Chinese.Carrying the massage “Share the peace,Share the Olympics.”The flame will pass through Tibet,cross the yellow rivers,travel the Great Wall and visit Chinese Taiwan and the 56 Ethnic communities who make up our society.On its journey,the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.Do you know ? Everyone in the capital is preparing himself for the Olympic Games by learning English.
Because we must get most of Chinese to speak English before 20__.But as all know ,environment protection is an important problem of Beijing Olympics.
But I believe ,we can unite together to win the competition of the enviroment protection in Beijing, and present the world a big gold medal.
That is “Green Beijing,Green Olympics.”Let’s join the Olympics together.That’s all, Thank you for listening.
Good afternoon everyone:
Talking about integrity, some people may tkink that there is even no integrity on the officialdom in our countary. Is that true?
Turn on the TV the important new may the senior officials corruptioned the amazing number of money or have a lot of houses and some even have one or more mistresses. Often when I see it I fell diappointed. Where is “To serve the people”? Where is “The servants of the people”? Where is “Construction of integrity”? And “Where is the harmonious society”? No one give me an answer. So I disappointed so I keep silence.
What cause it? The system in China? May be it’s the reason on the one hand. If there is a crue system in China forexample find the officials corruption then give the death penalty with no mercy. I think it will be less and less corruptiones.
But the most reason I think is the greedy heart in the people.Think back new China early the heart of the people is integrity very much. The officials think about is the countary is the people. And even no one think about is the oneself profit. People live happy and don’t worry about somethings even they are poor.
I have a dream the officials in China can serve the people really don’t for themselves profit.
I have a dream if people have something to save they will seek help for gorventment but not use money.
I have a dream the officials can put the integrity in there heart but not the speech.
And I have a dream our countary will be more and more beautiful. Tkink you!

So we must do something we want to do,so that when we are old we won’t feel

I am a Chinese,I shartto speak Chinese after Iwas born.Chinese is very interest to me,when I feal unhapy,Chinese may make me happy.There are many things in Chinese,like Tang poetry,a phonetic transcription.Many experts say that Chinese is the very important language in the world.I am pride that Ican speak Chinese.
In my Chinese studying.I also have problems.For example,one day when Iwas on my way to shool.A old wowan call me back.She asked me to read a latter for her.I fond I have some Chinese character I daven't saw before.But I still love Chinese .
I think I can study Chinese well with my heard learning.
law opened the bottom drawer of my sisters bureau and lifted out a tissue-wrapped package. this, he said, is not a slip. this is lingerie. he discarded the tissue and handed me the slip.
it was exquisite, silk, handmade and trimmed with a cobweb of lace. the price tag with an astronomical figure on it was still attached.
jan bought this the first time we went to new york, at least 8 or 9 years ago. she never wore it. she was saving it for a special occasion.
well, i guethis is the occasion.
he took the slip from me and put it on the bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the mortician. his hands lingered on the soft material for a moment, then he slammed the drawer shut and turned to me, dont ever save anything for a special occasion. every day you re alive is a special occasion.
i remembered those words through the funeral and the days that followed when i helped him and my niece attend to all the sad chores that follow an unexpected death. i thought about them on the plane returning to california from the midwestern town where my sisters family lives. i thought about all the things that she hadnt seen or heard or done. i thought about the things that she had done without realizing that they were special.
im still thinking about his words, and theyve changed the weeds in the garden. im spending more time with my family and friends and letime in committee meetings. whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experience to savour, not endure. im trying to recognize these moment now and cherish them.
im not saving anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special. event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, the first camellia blossom… i wear my good blazer to the market if i feel like it. my theory is if i look prosperous, i can shell out $28. 49 for one small bag of groceries without wincing. im not saving my good perfume for special parties; clerks in hardware stores and tellers in banks have noses that function as well as my party going friends.
someday and one of these days are losing their grip on my vocabulary. if its worth seeing or hearing or doing, i want to see and hear and do it now. im not sure what my sister wouldve done had she know that she wouldnt be here for the tomorrow we all take for granted.
i think she would have called family members and a few close friends. she might have called a few former friends to apologize, and mend fences for past squabbles. i like to think she would have gone out for a chinese dinner, her favorite food. im guessing. ill never know.
its those little things left undone that would make me angry if i knew that my hours were limited. angry because i put off seeing good friends whom i was going to get in touch with someday. angry because i hadnt written certain letters that i intended to write one of these days. angry and sorry that i didnt tell my husband and daughter often enough how much i truly love them.
im trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. and every morning when i open my eyes, i tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath truly, is... a gift from god.
thank you for giving me this opportunity to improve my oral english. thank you
Dear teachers and classmates:
Good morning\afternoon.
I am very glad to make a speech here .At this time, I'd like to talk something about my hobbies.
Everyone has hobbies. My mother likes watching TV. My father likes chess. Many of my schoolmates like playing football. So what are my hobbies? Now let me tell you about my hobbies.
I have many hobbies, such as sports, singing, playing the computer games and reading books, but learningEnglish is my favourite.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world some day. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, I also want to go to London, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and Dongying.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after hard study, one day I can speak English very well.
If you want to be loved, you should learn to love . So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too
There is more I like to do. There is more I want to say. Maybe I can tell you more next time. That’s all, thank you!
As you slowly open your eyes,look around,notice where the light comes into your room；listen carefully,see if there are new sounds you can recognize；feel with your body and spirit,and see if you can sense the freshness in the air.
Yes,yes,yes,it’s a new day,it’s a different day,and it’s a bright day！And most importantly,it is a new beginning for your life,a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions,take new actions,make new friends,and take your life to a totally unprecedented level！
In your mind’s eye,you can see clearly the things you want to have,the paces you intend to go,the relationships you desire to develop,and the positions you aspire to reach.
You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when everything happens as you dream.You can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic moment strikes.
Please Protect Our Home-Earth
It is known to us all that our planet is facing very serious environmental issues,such as global warming,ozone layer destruction,acid rain,shortage of resources and so forth.We should do something for our offsprings as well.So it is our responsibility to protect our home Earth.We should do anthing we can to increase resource utilization rate and econimize on natural resources.Meanwhile,we are supposed to endeavour to decrease carbon dioxide emission.We know our country have an enormous population and small quantities of natrual resources.So we are taking eminently heavy burdens.We should call on other countries especially developed countries to participate in this.Together,I believe we can improve our environment and save our planet and eventually make the Earth more beautiful.
It was noon on Friday. Friday was wash day, Kerry’s least favorite day. Doing the wash was such a pain. He had to gather together all the dirty clothes. He had to turn the shirts and slacks inside out to save wear and tear on the outside of the shirts and slacks. He had to empty all the junk out of all the pockets of his clothes.
Then he had to find quarters for each load of wash—four for the washer and three for the dryer. It’d be so nice to have a weekly maid, like his downstairs neighbor. Kerry piled all his clothes into the laundry basket and went downstairs. He was relieved to hear silence as he approached the laundry room; no one was using the machines. He put laundry soap and quarters into the washer, and set it at Warm Temperature and Regular Wash. A few minutes later, it was full of soapy water. He stuffed in half of the dirty clothes. This was going to be a two-load day.
He placed the half-full basket on top of the churning washer. He shut the laundry room door and walked back upstairs. He set his electronic timer to 35 minutes. When the washer was done, he’d reload it and put the first load into the dryer. He sat down and opened the newspaper to the California section: "Truck Runs Over Crossing Guard," said the headline.
Can money buy happiness
Dear audience and judges,
My topic is "Can money buy happiness".
As we all know, money can buy all the goods in our life, no matter how huge it is. A spaceship, for example, if you really feel your bank account can afford it.
However, when it comes to love, satisfaction, happiness and many other human feelings, it is completely not like this. The result of many recent research can support my point. They said that, though people received far more money than ever, their standard for happiness also rised. That means, if you had one yuan, a car might be your dream, but if you had one million, you might consider owning a space trip. So when people always hope for those they can not afford, they will push themselves to an unhappy situation.
Anyhow, money equal wealthy in life but not happiness in mind. Only by changing our attitude to money and enjoying every day, can we obtain a truely happy future!
Life is composed of complex things and emotions, but sometimes a good lifeattitude can change a lot, showing a different world for everyone. we all knowthat taking the college entrance examination is one of the most important thingsfor a person’s whole life. of course, high school students will under greatpressure. so, how to treat it properly before and after the exam is veryimportant. my opinions are as following.
生活有各种复杂的事情以及情感构造而成，然而有时候良好的生活态度可以有很大的改变，为我们展示了一个不一样的世界。众所周知参加高考是每个人一生中最重要的事情之一。当然，高中生肯定得承受很大的压力。所以，如何在考前以及考后看待这个考试是很重要的.。我的观点如下。
First of all, keeping a good life attitude is helpful for college entranceexam. as everyone regards it as so important and students themselves also put somuch effort on it, they are surely stressful when it is coming. some cannot fallasleep, some cannot think, and some cannot memorize things well because they aretoo nervous. as a result, they may not perform well in the exam. however, ifthey can keep a usual mind, they maybe at their best to get a good mark.
首先，保持良好的生活态度有助于高考。因为每个人都把高考看得那么重要，而且学生本身也为此付出了很大努力，当高考即将来临时他们肯定会压力山大。由于过于紧张，有人会失眠，有人会脑子一片空白，还有人会记不住知识。所以，他们在考试中可能会表现失常。但是，如果他们可以保持良好的生活态度，他们就有可能处他们的状态，从而取得好成绩。
In addition, after the high school entrance examination, keeping a goodlift attitude is very important. having experienced so stressful study for along time, some students start to indulge themselves. some may be very lazy andsome may do some crazy things to relax. however, it turns out that theirbehavior will ruin themselves at last. if they have a good life attitude, theywould relax themselves in a proper way not excessive.
而且，高考之后保持良好的心态也是很重要的。在长期经历高压学习后，有些学生会开始堕落。有些可能会很懒，或者做一些疯狂的事来放松自我。然而，他们的这些行为最终有可能会毁了他们。如果他们能保持良好的生活态度，他们就会正确的放松而不是过度。
In a word, keeping a good life attitude is significant and helpful ineveryone’s whole life.
总之，保持良好的生活态度在每个人的一生中都是很重要，也是很有帮助的。
good morning!

my speech is over, thank you.
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 freshness of 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.”
一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，因为它提醒了我，我们能够创造我们想要的未来。
我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子，我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差，有很多草籽，收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种，什么收获也没有。
我们是年轻的。“怎样度过青春?”这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它，我首先要问“从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么?”青春不是人生的一个时期，而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志。青春是生命的深泉在涌流.
一位诗人说“从一粒沙看世界，从一朵花看天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒在一刹那里收藏”。几天前，我有了一个听讲座的机会，从中我学到了很多东西。现在，我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手，我们可以看到手掌中的'展示我们的爱，事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短，那你们的呢?我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的，让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿?我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿?告诉我!是的，它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。
我们所有人都希望未来能比过去更美好，但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣，微笑吧，为你的曾经拥有。从过去来看，生活是艰苦的，但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择感觉，但是我们能选择和它相关的东西。失败并不意味着你不拥有成功，它只意味着你应该用另一种方式去做这件事。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，只意味着你应该更加努力。
Good morning, Everyone!
I will talk about sports. I am a lovely boy. I like many kinds of sports, such as walking, running, swimming, climbing, cycling and skipping. Sports give me a good health and bring me a lot of fun.
Now, I will tell you about my cycling sport. I often ride my bike when I am free. I like to ride my bike on a road. There are no cars and few people on the road. It is not very long. It is very good for cycling. When I ride down the slope, the bike runs very fast, and I feel like flying. It’s very good for me. Cycling gives me a lot of fun. Sports give me a strong body and bring me a lot of fun. If you want to be strong, please do sports; if you want to enjoy a happy life, please do sports, too.
Thank you!
As the song goes “ My future isn’t a dream .” I love the song which brings me heart when singing it every time . I believe that all our dreams can come true if we have nerve to pursue them .When I was young my mother always asked me what I would be in the future . Sometimes I found it very hard to give a certain answer . “ I want to be a doctor .” “ I want to be a teacher .” and “ I ’d like to be a scientist !” Many of these answers are perhaps very childish . But I never think they are far away .
How time flies! Who is able to give a set to his future ? I know clearly that those high buildings are based on solid foundation . As a student , I should have a thinking aim , and study hard . My goal is to enter a good middle school for further study after primary school . I know it’s hard work , and I will come across many difficulties . But no matter what they are , I will keep working on it and never give up . My teacher says there is only one kind of people that are truly successful : those who are brave enough to put up with hardships . Even if I won’t gein the goal , I have no regets for what I have done , for I have fight for my life.
