It’s a very intresting topic today.
I think my dad was a hero for me when i was a young child. wed go fishing, walks, and other fun things for a kid.
Every child has a good and great father, and so do i. my dad played a very important role in my daily life——exactly speaking, in my past 16 years.
My father always stands in the center of my life， from past till now and possibly in the future.
My family was rather poor when i was in my childhood. we didnt have our own house and had to live in a shabby， small room rented from my fathers factory. the room was so small that there was little space for people to walk. i didnt have my own bed and had to sleep with my parents. this is terrible both for my parents and me.
But father made this all different！he works very hard on his own business, now we have our own 2 housese,surly,i have my own room.and he take our family so much happiness, richer and richer.
When i was little, i did everything with my dad. you could always find me sitting on his knee or walking and doing everything with him. every night he would read me a bed time story and make the voices of each character.
I learnt a lot from my daddy. i learnt to never take things to seriously and to always smile.
Like many other fathers, my dad and i also has generation gap. he is not good at or even can’t work the computer. (Motivational model #url#)so when i sitting at the computer desk,he will say something like ‘you should pay more attention to your study’， ‘don’t waste time on the computer games, ‘it will be bad for your eyes’ and so on. how can i- a computer fan ? reduce time on computer? so i continue studying and playing on it
Years pasted, my father is over 45 now. it is time for me to look after him and i am sure i will do and we will live an even better life. and i will say,i really love you dad,cause you are the hero in my mind.
Thank you so much!
I’ve seen some people, who many would consider to “have it all” end their life because they thought they were not good enough.
A thought, a belief within them told them they were not worthy.
These people that many were jealous of, many envious of, were not good enough.
You must value yourself enough, to take the time EVERY SINGLE DAY to work on you. To engage in something, that will ensure you are a positive influence on the world.This of course doesn’t mean life will suddenly be perfect. The same life-challenges will show up, but if your mind is strong, if you mind is at peace, your REACTION to the challenging times will be very different.Your reaction will be HOW CAN I MAKE THIS WORK, not ‘why is this happening to me.
good morning/evening/afternoon, 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 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.
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。

Dear,
I want to wish Eid Mubarak to all Muslims celebrating Eid and a safe journey to those now on Hajj.
I know that many of you use this special time to reflect on what’s important to you in yourlives: your family, your friends, your beliefs, your commitment to do the best you can forothers.
It’s also a time to think about sacrifice and struggle – and that is particularly poignant thissummer as we continue to see so many innocent people – Muslim and non-Muslim – caught upin the ongoing conflicts in Syria, Gaza and Iraq.
It is truly heartbreaking to witness the loss that continues to take place in these parts of theworld. More than ever we need to strive for an end to the violence. We need to unite behindpeace, tolerance, compassion, generosity towards one and other – the values that are at theheart of Islam and the heart of Eid. Today I want to reaffirm my commitment to thosevalues, my party’s commitment to those values, and I want to wish you all a loving andpeaceful Eid.
The Road to Happiness
It isa commonplace among moralists that you cannot get happiness by pursuing it. This is only true if you pursue it unwisely. Gamblers at Monte Carlo are pursuing money, and most of them lose it instead, but there are other ways of pursuing money, which often succeed. So it is with happiness. If you pursue it by means of drink, you are forgetting the hangover. Epicurus pursued it by living only in congenial society and eating only dry bread, supplemented by a little cheese on feast days. His method proved successful in his case, but he was a valetudinarian, and most people would need something more vigorous.
For most people, the pursuit of happiness, unless supplemented in various ways, is too abstract and theoretical to be adequate as a personal rule of life. But I think that whatever personal rule of life you may choose it should not, except in rare and heroic cases, beincompatible with happiness.
If you look around at the men and women whom you can call happy, you will see that they all have certain thingsin common.
Hi, my name is xxx. Im xx years old, a middle school student apparently. I love music very much although Im not very good at singing. Ive been playing guzheng, an ancient traditional instrument for a long time and now Im in level 10, which means a really high level among the amateurs. Apart from that, I also like to reading and writing. They both give me a lot of fun and build my unique personality as well as my goal and dream. I like Wangfei very much. She could be my favorite singer.... Personally, Ive been considering I have a really complicated personality BECause sometimes dont really like to study, sometimes..... However, Im very positive and look forwards to my future because Im the one who will realize my goal.
I have spent fifteen years in my life. So, this is my ninth year to study. By the way, my name is WengJingru. My father thought hard about my name. He consulted the dictionary two times to find how to name me. Of course, this name is very good and I like it very much. Sometimes I think I am a little strange. Because I often think the world isn’t full of happiness. And I want to be different from others. I hate superficial people. But always I am very out-going and kind to others. I can’t say ‘no’ to others. So I don’t know how to refuse. I can’t see I am a pretty girl, but I am not an ugly person, either. I am very general. I can’t say too much about my appearance. In this term, I make a little progress in my study. In my life, I have my parents’ love, and many, many people’s love. I am happy. I achieved so much, and I also lost so much. My star sign is Aquarius. It represents kindness and wisdom. But I don’t think I am such a clever person. Maybe I am modest. Aquarius has many friends. It also says that some people think I am strange because I hate to be like others.
I try to do everything differently. I like yellow the most. Yellow is the color of the sun, it can remind me of a warm, sunny day. Yellow is also the color of wisdom. And I like it because it is one of the colors that are vivid. Of course, most students have problems in their study. I don’t know how to make progress. I think I should work harder. That is the only way. I like reading very much. My favorite writer is GuoJingming. And now I am reading a book called ‘Gone with Wind’. I keep reading half an hour every day. I like English and Chinese best. I want to establish an English club.
I want everyone to speak English in the daily life. All above are my real things. I hope everyone will like me. Hello ,everybody.My names xx,Im from xx.Its really a fantacy place,people there are very friendly and helpful.Therere also some places of interests in my hometown,I love it and hope that you can visite it someday.I was graduated from xx School/University,its also a nice school.Therere 3 people in my family,you know,my parents and I.We love each other and live a happylife.I usually play ballgames in my spare time,and I think Im good at basketball.My dream is to play a basketball game with my idol--Kobe one day. :) So, you see,Im really an easygoing guy.Thats all,thank you.
The Middle East needs your help. Japan needs your help. Alabama and Tennessee need your help. Louisiana needs your help. Philadelphia needs your help.
The world needs a lot—and we need it from you, the young people.
So get out there. Give it everything you’ve got—whether it’s your time, your talent, your prayers, or your treasure.
Because remember this: You’ll never see a U-haul behind a hearse.
You can’t take it with you. The Ancient Egyptians tried it—and all they got was robbed!
So what are you going to do with what you have? And I’m not talking how much you have.
Some of you are business majors. Some of you are theologians, nurses, sociologists. Some of you have money. Some of you have patience. Some have kindness. Some have love. Some of you have the gift of long-suffering.
Whatever it is… what are you going to do with what you have?
Now here’s my last point about failure:
Sometimes it’s the best way to figure out where you’re going.
Your life will never be a straight path.
the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.
they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; 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 may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder,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 is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die.
Honorable Judges, fellow students:
Good afternoon!
Recently, there is a heated debate in our society. The collegestudents are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receiveexceptional education at extraordinary places. But will we be ableto face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Willwe be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to acceptthe responsibility of building the future of ourcountry?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lostgeneration, whi（征集网）ch would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But thecynics are wrong. The college students I see are eagerly learningabout how to live independently. We help each other clean thedormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part timejobs to supplement our pocket money.
The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and weneglect the need for character cultivation. But again, the cynicsare wrong. We care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, wetreasure justice, and we seek truth.
Last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood typetested in order to make a contribution for the children who sufferfrom blood cancer.
As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turningpoint in our lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism orfaith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the futureof our country. I believe in all my fellow classmates. Though weare still inexperienced and even a little bit childish.
I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet anychallenge and take>
dear all,
life on earth are the most valuable things money can not buy, jewelry-for-not go back. life only once, should not renewable and will not re-come. students, and your life has just begun blooming flower, you are prosperous home sustenance, development of the chinese nation are the hope of; your future offspring transmission of both task and maintenance obligations of parents. therefore, you have to cherish life and take care of life, for themselves and for parents, good for homeland alive.
life for each person only once, no life, everything免谈。 therefore, we must firmly embrace the "yes to life, safety first" awareness of construction safety of our campus so that students can grow up healthily.
campus safety relates to our lives and learning potential safety problems have as many as 20 kinds, including traffic accidents, poisoning, fire fire, drowning, sports injury and so on. these are at times a threat to the healthy growth of young students. according to statistics, every year our country has around 16,000 unnatural deaths in the primary, elementary and middle school students because of safety accidents, food poisoning, drowning and other deaths, the average has more than 40 people every day, that is to say every day there will be a class of students at "disappeared." so we not only have safety awareness, and more importantly, prevention awareness and preventive measures. study at daily life, we should note the following:
one, pay attention to safety recess activity. want the students up and down stairs in an orderly manner and must not hurriedly up and down, up and down the stairs right to cultivate the good habit of walking to prevent accidents on campus crowded stampede. rainy at our school buildings and office building corridor, staircase, will be very slippery, please the whole student must light when walking at the foot walk. everyone should pay attention to civilization recess breaks should not chased noisy.
2, it is necessary to pay attention to traffic safety. we must strictly comply with rules of the road, without people to ride, not red light running, horse way to go before crosswalks, it is necessary to take the initiative to avoid motor vehicles. not want to develop the habit of school by bike.
3, pay attention to food safety. not to buy "three noes" of food; we should not be at the school gate and street stalls mobile buy snacks, to prevent food poisoning. to learn how to protect themselves, take care of themselves, pay attention not to overeating, try eating less food cold.
4, it is necessary to pay attention to sports safety. on physical education and extra-curricular activities to prepare before the warming-up, attention should be paid to exercise when not to dramatic collision, so as not to be knocked down or fall.
5, it is necessary to pay attention to internet security. network is a very good learning tool, we can use it to gather information, broaden our horizon. but the network also has a lot of harm, if unhealthy internet browsing web pages, or indulge in unrestrained virtual space, then it will affect our physical and mental health.
6 students for their own actions but also have safety awareness. student encountered at the contradictions between, we want a calm, rational, should not substitute for reasoning with fists, give themselves and their classmates bring about adverse effects. conflict with the people must bear in mind: the broader picture.
teacher and fellow students, only one person's life. a collision, a wrestling are probably the lives of vulnerable people's hard to imagine the harm caused. therefore want to protect their own safety,
we comply with the minimum required, the most simple rules and order. let us bear in mind: human life, safety first! let us work together to create a harmonious campus, campus safety!
Dear teachers and schoolmates：
Good morning!My name is LiangshunYi. I am 11 years old. I am glad to stand here to share my speech with you. My topic is 《I have a dream》.
Everyone has a dream, I have a dream, too. When I was a kid, my dream was to eat many candies everyday.But now,I am growing up, and my dream have changed.
Now, my dream is to be a teacher. I think Teacher is a very great job. Teachers teache us lots of kowledge and make us understand the truthes. So, I want to be a teacher very much.
In order to make my dream come true.I will try my best to study harder and to improve myself
I hope all children can be educated well. And I will make me excellent enough to be their teacher.
I know, on the way to pursue my dream. Perhaps I will meet many difficulties. But nevermind. The more difficulties I meet the stronger I will be There is a saying:”There is only one kind of people that are truly successful：Those who are brave enough to put up with difficulties”. I believe that no pain no gain.Even if I won’t achieve my goal I have no regrets for what I have done. So dear friends, let us work harder together to make our dream come true. If the dream of everyone comes true ,the dream of China will come true surely.
亲爱的同学们：
大家好！
对于英语有不少同学烦恼，我们应该如何学好英语？其实要学好英语，并不难，只要我们每天上课认真，把该记忆的词汇都认真记住，打好底子，我们学起来就要容易很多。
我们考试的时候，听力填词或者做题都需要我们掌握词汇，听懂英语。这是一门语言，我们就应该进行练习，多说多看，如果有时间，我们可以看一些英语书籍，锻炼自己的英语学习能力，学习更多的词汇。学习不可能一蹴而就，全靠每天努力学习，我们学习英语的重点分为单词，语法，听力这三方面。
对于单词，我们就应该多记多背，单词需要每天记忆，而且需要重复记忆，如果你当天记住了这个单词，但你却不愿意一直复习，总会有一天忘记。我们除了学习新单词，更要复习已经学过的单词，现在我们需要学习的单词比较少，那我们就应该把他们完全掌握。比如我们每天学习十个单词，两天后我们就必须要再次温习我们学过的单词，如果这样感觉记忆非常累，那么我们可以通过阅读英语文章来加强单词记忆，并且每天坚持，只要我们每天都按时学习，掌握更多的单词我们的基础就能够打牢固，这样就方便了接下来的学习。
掌握了单词后，我们就应该认真学习语法，毕竟西方的说话习惯，与我们不同，而且表达的`意思也有出入，我们不但要掌握各种句型，更要明白如何运用，现在有很多有关语法的书籍可以供我们参考，老师上课所讲的语法比较少，我们也可以利用时间多学一些语法，学习语法不但可以让我们掌握英语说话习惯，也能够让我们复习巩固所学的单词。对我们的帮助很大。练习语法的最好办法，就是多做题，通过不同的题型练习自己的语法熟练度，而且各种语法我们必须要背诵掌握下来，当我们记住的语法多了，习惯成自然，就不会觉得这些语法难以接受。
在英语考试中听力是锻炼我们英语沟通能力，如果我们学习了英语，却不会用英语沟通，而且别人说的英语自己也听不懂，那不是等于没学吗。我们之所以学习英语最主要的目的就是为了更好沟通，所以想要练习自己的听力，我们不但要多听英语磁带，更要多说，要纠正自己的发音，勤学苦练中能够学到更多。每天不能忘记自己的学习任务，坚持学习。可以利用早自习时间好好练习。
其实说来说去都离不开一点，那就是勤奋，学英语要勤奋，而且要学会利用时间，毕竟英语是一门语言，我们要掌握这门语言，就必须要勤加练习，多记多背。
这是我学习英语的一些心得，希望对大家有帮助，谢谢大家！
Today a boy name is standing here and talking about the near future of the people believe that we are living on a beautiful and vital palent.
Because we can find everything we need from everywhere on th earth.But some of us who study the earth are very surprised that th earth is going to die much sooner than before.It means th earth will be like the Mars in a few years.And then most animals will be exterminated ，and the organism called human may not be seen on the earth any more.Is that a lie or a joke?
No,its serious and true 。A river can be polluted by only a little trash and so little trash can be made by hundreds of families a year. But no country even America can clean the rivers as soon as we pollute them.Im afriad we do something wrong over and over again. So we have less and less time to redress the balance of Nature.Luckily, its not too late now. People have many things to do to stop the disaster. For example having a low-carbon lifestyle is one of the best ideas.
More and more young people like to live a low-carbon life. So you see ，life with low-carbon can be fashionable.In fact when we protect the earth ， we are protecting ourselves.Thanks for listening to me.
What life is abouthttp
htmlAs we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.
Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.
But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all, it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, we’ve added years to life, but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.
And these choices are what life is about.
one night a hotel caught fire, and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes．
two men stood outside and looked at the fire．
“before i came out,” said one,“i ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money． people dont think of money when theyre afraid． when anyone leaves paper money in a fire, the fire burns it． so i took all the bills that i could one will be poorer because i took them．”
“you dont know my work,” said the other．
“what is your work?”
“im a policeman．
“oh!” cried the first man． he thought quickly and said,“and do you know my work?”“no,”said the policeman．
“im a writer． im always telling stories about things that never happened．”
I love English,it gives me a colorful dream. I hope I can travel around the world one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people from different countries. I can see many places of great interests. I dream that I can go to London,because it is the birth place of English.
Sandstorm
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, Today I'm going to talk about sandstorm.
Sandstorm is a kind of bad weather witch is becoming increasingly common in Northwestern China, and it usually happens in spring and fall. Though I'm only 13, I have experienced it and suffered from it quite a lot.
I'm sure most people still remember the sandstorm that happened last month. It swept across the large area of 11 provinces and caused a great loss to our nation.
As you can see on TV, when a sandstorm comes, the wind blows strongly with dust and sand. Sometimes trees are even broken down in half, and little birds cannot find their homes. Sometimes clouds of dust blur the vision, and little kids cannot find their ways. It's like the end of the world.
When a sandstorm occurs, our classroom is filled with dust and sand. My poor teachers! They've breathed in enough chalk-powder. Now, they have to take in much dust. My poor fellow classmates! They told me they were almost dying.
We love beautiful spring. We cherish bright sunshine. But sandstorms destroy all the lovely things. Yet we know it is Mother Nature's revenge on what we have done to her. In order to see blue sky and sunny spring again, we should plant more trees and more grass to protect the environment. And it is not too late if we start right now.
Though it's a hard job to fight against the sandstorm, it is the battle we must fight, and it is a battle we must win!
Thank you!

If you pursue it by means of drink, you are forgetting the hangover. Epicurus pursued it by living only in congenial society and eating only dry bread, supplemented by a little cheese on feast days. His method proved successful in his case, but he was a valetudinarian, and most people would need something more vigorous. For most people, the pursuit of happiness, unless supplemented in various ways, is too abstract and theoretical to be adequate as a personal rule of life.
But I think that whatever personal rule of life you may choose it should not, except in rare and heroic cases, be incompatible with happiness. If you look around at the men and women whom you can call happy, you will see that they all have certain things in common.
Matt and his wife lived in the country. Matt was very stingy and hated spending money. One day a fair came to the nearby town.
"Let’s go to the fair, Matt," his wife said. "We haven’t been anywhere for a long time."
Matt thought about this for a while. He knew he would have to spend money at the fair. At last he said, "All right, but I’m not going to spend much money. We’ll look at things, but we won’t buy anything. "
They went to the fair and looked at all the things to buy. There were many things Matt’s wife wanted to buy, but he would not let her spend any money.
Then, in a nearby field, they saw a small airplane.
"Fun flights!" the notice said, " $$ 10 for 10 minutes.
Matt had never been in an airplane and he wanted to go on a fun flight. However, he didn’t want to have to pay for his wife, as well.
"I’ve only got $$ 10, " he told the pilot. "Can my wife come with me for free?" The pilot wasn’t selling many tickets, so he said, "I’ll make a bargain with you. If your wife doesn’t scream or shout, she can have a free flight."
Matt agreed, and got into the small airplane with his wife.
The pilot took off and made his airplane do all kinds of things. At one moment it was flying upside down.
When the plane landed, the pilot said, "0. K. your wife didn’t make a sound. She can have her ride free."
"Thank you," Matt said. "It wasn’t easy for her, you know, especially when she fell out."
From the picture, we can see that some schools only want their students tostudy hard at their lessons but ignore the educating on students' ability ofpractice, communication and organization. These schools regard study as the mostimportant thing but other abilities such as communication skills, public-mindedawareness, are not useful to them.
This idea is one-sided. We should take everything into account in students'education. If a school has such an idea, it is not good for their students'future development. In the current society, people must have an all-roundability to adapt to society. If not, students will find it difficult to find agood job. Besides, book is not the only way to success. EQ is sometimes moreimportant than IQ. So students should develop such abilities as communication,organization, public relation, and creativity.
As far as I am concerned, on the one hand, it is important for us to studyfrom books well and achieve excellent academic scores; on the other hand, it ismore important to develop other skills. One should be sociable and capable sothat he can be socially useful.
从图片中，我们可以看到，有些学校只希望自己的学生努力学习他们的经验教训，但忽略了对学生实践，沟通和组织能力的培养。这些学校作为学习的最重要的事情，但其他能力，如沟通能力，公众意识的宣传，都没有对他们有用。
这种想法是片面的。我们应该把一切都要考虑学生的教育。如果一个学校有这样的想法，这是不利于学生的未来发展。在目前的社会中，人们必须有一个全方位的能力，以适应社会。如果没有，学生们会发现很难找到一份好工作。此外，本书并不是成功的途径。EQ有时比智商更重要。因此，学生应培养这样的能力的沟通，组织，公共关系和创造力。
就我而言，在一方面，重要的是我们从书本以及研究和实现优异的学习成绩；另一方面，更重要的是发展其他技能。一要善于交际，有能力让他可

Dear everyone.
Good evening, everyone!
Throughout my years of being a student, I’ve had many teachers. none of them are the same, but the one that i’ll never forget and will always miss is my chinese bilingual teacher in the middle school i attended in seattle, ms. ho. she was a skinny, but stylish lady in her 50s. she was different from all the other teachers because she gave me something unforgettable.
Ms. ho and i became friends right in the first semester i was in that middle school. at the same time, i was having a really hard time with my subjects. since i had just transferred from a bilingual school, where i had stayed for two months after arriving in the us, my english was horrible; my average grade was below c. i almost thought it impossible to learn english. then, one day she told me she strongly believed that i was capable of controlling my life, and i would be just fine. she said that she found we were much alike: both were stubborn, kind-hearted and a little bit si-mp-le-minded. she believed that i had the quality of becoming wise. she even said that she didn’t have any worries about me, about my not learning english. with her encouragement, i found the strength within myself and began to desire to work even harder. as a result, i soon proved her right, and at the end of the semester,() i got a 3.8 average grade.
Today, I still keep in touch with her, and she still tells me how she believes in me. sometimes, i’d think back, and wonder how I could handle all those things if it wasn’t for her encouragement and trust. could i be the person i am today? then, it struck me: what we need has always been trust and love of others; because these things inspire us to do our best, and to live our life to its fullest.
To sum up, i’d like to say to all of you: let us all appreciate trust and love of others and achieve our full potential in our life!
boys and girls，
good afternoon.
The content that i will give a lecture today is still about the subject that's unchanged since ancient times to now days， which is friendship. There have been thousands of explanations as for the word "friend",but i resolutely think that there is the best definition to explain it,which is trust. the story that i read recently makes my idea firm.
It happened in italy four centuries b.c. A young man named pi sia was sentenced to death, because of having offended the tyrant. pi sia was a filial son,and he asked to see his old mother before death. The king promised him, but set down the condition that he must find another person to be in prison instead of him. The condition was so critical that it was almost impossible to be realized. But pi sia did find such a man, who was his friend named dameng. Then pi sia went home to bid farewell with mother as he wished.
Days passed quickly, and the term of imprisonment was near at hand, but pi sia had not turned back yet. Most people ascertained that pi sia had deceived his friend.
It was a rainy day when demeng was sent to the execution ground, all persons watching around laughed at him, but demeng himself was not worried at all. The rope was hanging on his neck, and just at the critical moment, one person ran quickly through the rain shouting loudly,"please wait, I'm coming!" it was pi sia who turned back in time.
This was the most moving curtain in the world. demeng took no care of himself in order to help his friend realize the duty, whose kind of spirit was moved one to tears. While pi sia did not hesitate to take life as the price for performing the promise, whose kind of courage was also rare to meet. My dear friends, do you know why demeng was so calm before death? the reason was that he believed his friend pi sia would not do such despicable thing as deceiving friends. This depended on the strength of trust.
This is a true story that is enough to shock everyone. especially to contemporary people who are surrounded by the benefit of themselves，it is more worth of pondering. friendship is the precious deposits of the human world and the coordinate of life，and it may keep the flowers of heart fresh and sweet forever. a true friend is large treasure of your whole life. when you are downhearted，they may encourage you to do all to catch up with the others， and when you are proud of yourself，they may remind you of keeping a clear head with sincere advice.
However， in the modern society that regards the real interest as the most supreme power ， friendship becomes fragile and stingy .it is common that good friends known several years fall out to become enemies， and the friendship also becomes the chip of business...
In fact friendship will not die out, but people do not know to value it .the famous writer bi shumin once said in a piece of paper， " there is only one fruit in the tree of friendship，which is trust." friendship is a kind of nutrition for people that is the most simple and the most luxurious at the same time，which needs irrigating with trust and true feelings. it is just like the flower living in the comfortable hothouse. only with the attentive care，can it become more and more beautiful. in the modern and changeable age， we should abide by the an-cient rule, which is trust. friendship is so hard that it may exist forever as long as you treat it with heart.
Trust is one kind of precious feeling in the world. no one can buy it with money, and no one can get it by cheating or force. it comes from the innermost soul of people. just like clean spring, it washes away the dirt of common customs and makes you pure and self-confident. moreover, it can clear away the obstacles in your heart and help you gain more friend-ship.
In the real life, what will be kept in the history is not material wealth, but mutual affection being loyal-hearted. Let us abandon suspicion, hate out of jealousy, and deal with friends in all sincerity. believing that our eyes will brighten, and there will be even more happy laughter and cheerful voices in our world.
