高中生英语演讲 篇1
Many years ago, there lived a very rich man who wanted to do something for the people of his town. But first he wanted to find out whether they deserved his help. So he placed a very large stone in the center of the main road into town. Then he hid behind a tree and waited. Soon an old man came along with his cow.
"Who put this stone in the center of the road?" said the old man, but he did not try to remove the stone. Instead, with some difficulty
he passed around the stone and continued on his way. Another man came along and did the same thing; then another came, and another. All of them complained about the stone in the center of the road, but not one of them tried to remove it. Late in the afternoon, a young man came along. He saw the stone and said, "The night will be very dark. Some neighbor will come along later in the dark and will fall against the stone. "
The young man then began to move the stone. He pushed and pulled with all his strength to move it to one side. But imagine his surprise when under the stone he found a bag full of money and this message: "This money is for the thoughtful person who removes this stone from the road. That person deserves help."

有的人在激烈的风浪中竞争，卷走了，再也没有恢复过来。有些人是靠着风口，踏上山顶，在岸上，他们成功了。因为他们对它有很多坚持。对他们来说，前沿不是绊脚石，而是充实自己的基础。

高中生英语演讲 篇4
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 need 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.

不降比木材送到山，常平百川排气和海。人生容易打仗，老心不老，就是所谓：永远不太老学，学七十也太少。短暂是人生，但不应匆匆过客，它应该是：六月的奋斗激情，如火，前进的脚步，如河流的波涛，在山的山上，水的流水!当我们在人生道路上失败时，多看看莫扎特、巴赫、贝多芬、史铁生、海伦·凯勒…他们是艺术和文学有这些，但不幸的是在生活中。他们低下了头?秋天?抱怨吗?放弃吗?
“人生的跌宕起伏，“我看路，我将上下求索”、“春风杨柳一万，神州舜尧”诗人数以百万计的人都在探索追求。人生，有自己的价值。如果一个人不能使我的人生辉煌，也没有理由使它变得平淡;人生可以平凡，但不能庸俗;罪恶;生活不在乎多少眼泪，而在于追求完美和卓越的过程!
生命比时间宝贵。人生，最耀眼的是事业。人生，最幸福的是奋斗。
每个人都有明天，每个人都有下一年。立足今天，期待明天，立足于这一年，明年。
我相信，无论未来的道路多么坎坷，只要抓住今天，迟早会尝到人生奋斗的甜蜜。抓住你生命中的那一刻，而不是在一月浪费一年!
追求积极，百分之一的希望也可能成为现实;消极的等待，百分之九十九的肯定会被毁灭!
高中生英语演讲 篇6
有人说"我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节，无穷的。我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，作为一个提醒，未来可以是任何我们想要的。我们都是在农民的位置。如果我们种下好的种子，我们获得好收成。如果我们什么都不种，我们将一无所获。
我们是年轻的。"怎样度过青春?"这是一个有意义的问题。要回答这个问题，我首先要问"你怎么理解这个词的青春?青春不是生命的一段时光，它是一种精神状态。它不是红润的面颊，红色的嘴唇和柔软的双膝。它是意志问题。它是生命的深泉在涌流。
一个诗人说"从一粒沙子看到一个世界，一朵花里一个天堂，把握在你手心里的就是无限，永恒在刹那间收藏。前几天，我有机会去听一个演讲。我学到了很多东西。我想和大家分享。让我们把右手掌。我们可以看到三条线，展示我们的love。career生活。我有一个短的生活。
你的呢?我想知道我们是否可以这样看我们的未来。好的`，让我们做一个拳头。我们的未来在哪里?
哪里是我们的爱，事业，生活?告诉我。是的，它就在我们的手中。它是在我们自己。
我们所有人都希望未来会比过去更好。但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为它的结束而哭泣，要因为它的发生而微笑。在过去，我们已经了解到，生活是艰苦的，但我们更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择我们的感觉，但我们可以选择什么呢。失败并不意味着你不拥有它，它只是意味着你必须用不同的方式做它。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，它意味着你必须更加努力。
正如我在前面所说的，"我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节，无穷的。过去的已经过去。我们所做的任何事都会改变它。而未来就在我们面前。相信我给予世界的，世界也将给我们。从今天开始，让我们做我们自己的主人，并说出"世界是我们的，未来是我们的。"

When to life. None, tzu chi is hard to do.
In life, most people are under the pressure of life in the body, like aboulder burden, out of breath. Indeed, our life is too heavy, body and mind isalways have the feeling of fatigue. But can't afford to calm down and for hisown future, to find a way out. May be issued such a sigh: "alas, I what is theway out? I are going to get to this age, how or no hope." Sigh is useless, butvery tall to find a way out to may have the highest hope, is the absoluteprinciple.
No matter who you are, is inevitable in your own life path to find accurategoal in life. This is to oneself is also responsible for life!

高中生英语演讲 篇11
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. It’s great to be here. First of all, thanks for your coming. Tonight, what I am gonna talk about is innovation. Who can tell me what is innovation? We all know that, since 1978, China has been through the greatest changes brought by the reform and opening-up. So what we can see from the reform and opening-up? The power of innovation. That’s why I am here. I am here to show you my Chinese dream. I want to talk about the future and how we're going to win it.
If we want to make innovation. But firstly, we should make sure that China is a place where we can make it if we try, where we can go as far as hard work and big dreams will take us. We understand that it’s not going to be a cakewalk, this competition for the future, which means all of us are going to have to do our best. We are going to have to win the future by being smarter and working harder and working together.
Innovation is the spirit of our country, the motive force for our country’s prosperity. Sparking the imagination and creativity of our people, unleashing new discoveries -- that's what China will do better than any other country on Earth. From the moment we have a new idea, we can explore it; we can develop it with a research grant; we can protect it with a patent; we can market it with a loan to start a new business. We’ve got a chain that takes a great idea all the way through. We must be confirmed that, today, the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But we will somehow find a way to overcome the difficulties.
My major is . My job is to discover or create new drugs for many diseases like cancer. You know that laboratory is the place where miracles happen. Believe it or not. What I do can save millions of people’s lives. For a long time, what challenges me is how to commercialize research. You come up with a great idea, but moving that new discovery from theory to practice or from the lab to the marketplace, that's really a big job. That’s what we should focus on. We need to act with a sense of urgency-to study and work and create as if the fate of the country depends on us-because it does. It depends on us. Thank you!
Our new president Xi Jinping came up with the dream of the Chinese nation's rejuvenation on December 29, 20xx. He said: the Chinese dream is a dream of national strength prosperity and people's happiness. Our people have an ardent love for life. They wish to have better education, more stable jobs, more income, greater social security , better medical and health care, improved housing conditions and better environment,They want their children to grow well, have ideal jobs and lead a more enjoyable life. To meet their desire for a happy life is our mission."
2He also expounded his views of realizing
our great dream. He said : To realize the dream, China must take the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The country must also foster the Chinese spirit,in which patriotism and the spirit of reform and innovation play a core role, and unite 1.3 billion people of all ethnicities into a great source of strength.
3I always ask myself what
can I do for our great Chinese dream ? As we all know that the wiser the youths are ,the wiser the nation will be;the wealthier the youths are ,the wealthier the nation will be;the stronger the youths are ,the stronger the nation
will be. Here the word wealthy means: enriching our knowledge reserve. As a new generation of science, every one here shouldering the great historical mission of ma-ki-ng china powerful and strong. You may say that this may exaggerate our role, but I want to say you are wrong. If I am a little screw our great dream may be a multifunction and complex machine. Through this example I just want to say I am very tiny but I am indispensable .
I believe that as long as all of our university students unite together and perform our own functions that study hard in school and work hard after we graduating from university . we must be able to achieve our great dream meanwhile enrich ourselves unwittingly!
President Xi also said:We are closer than in any other time of history to the goal of rejuvenating the Chinese nation. We are more confident and capable of achieving this goal than in any other period of history,"
lets us unite together to realize Chinese nation's great rejuvenation to struggle!

高中生英语演讲 篇13
whether sixty or sixteen,there is in every human being's heart the lure ofwonders,the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the gameof living.in the center of your heart and my heart there is a wirelessstation:so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope,cheer,courage and powerfrom men and from the infinite,so long are you young.
无论是60岁还是16岁,你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄灭的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事业成功的欢乐与热情.在你我的心底,有一座无线电台,它能在多长时间里接收到人间万物传递来的美好、希望、欢乐、鼓舞和力量的信息,你就会年轻多长时间.
an individual human existence should be like a river—small atfirst,narrowly contained within its banks,and rushing passionately past bouldersand over waterfalls.gradually the river grows wider,the banks recede,the watersflow more quietly,and in the end,without any visible break,they become merged inthe sea,and painlessly lose their individual being.
人的生命应当像河流,开始是涓涓细流,受两岸的而十分狭窄,尔后奔腾咆哮,翻过危岩,飞越瀑布,河面渐渐开阔,河岸也随之向两边隐去,最后水流平缓,森森无际,汇入大海之中,个人就这样毫无痛苦地消失了.
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of theappetite for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of sixtymore than a boy of twenty.nobody grows old merely by a number of years.we growold by deserting our ideals.
青春意味着战胜懦弱的那股大丈夫气概和摈弃安逸的那种冒险精神.往往一个60岁的老者比一个20岁的青年更多一点这种劲头.人老不仅仅是岁月流逝所致,更主要的是不思进取的结果.
years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul.worry,fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back todust.
光阴可以在颜面上留下印记,而热情之火的熄灭则在心灵上刻下皱纹.烦恼、恐惧、缺乏自信会扭曲人的灵魂,并将青春化为灰烬.
高中生英语演讲 篇14
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me is more important than facts.
It is more important than the past,than education,than money,than circumstances,than failures,than successes,than what the other people think, say,or do.
It is more important than the appearance,the giftedness or skill.
It will make or break a company,a church ,a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day, regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past.We cannot change the fact that people will act in acertain way.We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the one stage we have.And that is our attitudes.
I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me ,and ninety percent how I react to it.And so it is with you.
We are in charge of our attitudes.
我活得越久，就越意识到态度对生活的影响。
对我来说，态度比事实更重要。
它比过去、比教育、比金钱、比环境、比失败、比成功、比别人的想法、说的话或做的事都重要。
它比外表、天赋或技能更重要。
它将成就或毁掉一个公司、一座教堂、一个家庭。
值得注意的是，我们每天都有选择的机会，关于这一天我们将采取的态度。
我们不能改变我们的过去。
我们无法改变人们会以某种方式行事的事实。我们无法改变不可避免的事实。
我们唯一能做的就是在我们拥有的舞台上表演。这就是我们的态度。
我相信生活中有百分之十的事情发生在我身上，百分之九十的事情发生在我如何应对它。你们也是如此。
我们对自己的态度负责。
高中生英语演讲 篇15
Friend, please believe in yourself!
Recall that you ever proudly said: "I can do it."
Looking for your memory in the long river of whether there is "I believe I"word.
"Believe in yourself, I can do it!"
This is just a simple word, but it is not empty talk, more is not a joke.This is in the affirmation of your ability, is a test of your own. Although youare very powerful, but you don't believe in yourself, you can't say: "I can doit!" In this way, the flowers and applause will be in your side slip; Waitingfor you to find, there is already late, the success of the throne has belongs tothose who dare to say "I can do it". So, we must have sufficientself-confidence, dare to loudly say: "I can do it!"
If there is no MAO zedong's "a single spark can start a prairie fire", theChinese revolution will not go so vigorous; If no dizhou tong "we Chinese is notbetter than foreigners stupid", China's biological research there won't be soquick development; If there is no xu haifeng that amazing one gun, China in theOlympic Games will not with zero breakthrough; If there is no 'harvard girl liuyiting "I admire her, but I and refuse to obey her", will lose a bright sceneryin harvard yard... Countless "without", telling the charm of confidence to us.Don't you to day?
"Believe in yourself, I can do it!"
高中生英语演讲 篇16
to choose, to give up
a poet leads me to a branch road: just like the branch road, we have to make a lot of choicesduring our lifetime. it is usually considered that we are choosingwhat to gain, to own, but in my opinion, we are just choosing togive up.
choosing to be a teacher means giving up the life as rich as abusiness man;
choosing to be a top student means giving up much leisure time infront of the tv.
sure, it’s a torture, but we must judge carefully what is moreimportant, then give up the others. don’t think of them any more,just focus all your spirit

Opportunities and Challenges
First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”
Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 2019 Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway lines, public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.
Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances, could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question, ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”
For us, I mean the Chinese youth, 2019 Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us .The society is just like a ship, and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is, but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning, however, when we wake up, we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing, most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ----that is someone who will give comfort to others.
At the end of my speech, I hope all the preparation will go well, and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.

Can Money Buy Happiness?
Can money buy happiness? Different people have different opinions. Some think yes, while others hold the opposite.
It is true that with enough money one can buy all the things one wants, and live a life of comfort and security. However, it is equally true that lack of money causes great distress. It is a common view that "money is the root of all evil." The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money, resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable.
So, money does not necessarily mean happiness. It all depends on how it is used. If we make honest and sensible use of money, it can be a stepping-stone to happiness l Although money cannot buy happiness, it can make happiness possible if it is employed sensibly.
金钱能买来幸福吗?
金钱能买来幸福吗?不同的人有不同的回答。有的人认为能，有的人则持相反的意见。
诚然一个人如果有足够的钱可以买到他想要的所有物品，过上舒适稳定的生活。然而，同样缺钱往往引起巨大的忧伤。人们常常认为“金钱是万恶之源”，对金钱的追求驱使许多人去骗去偷。在某些地方，没有钱买不到的东西，导致社会的腐化堕落。
所以，金钱并不一定就意味着幸福。这取决于怎样使用金钱，如果我们诚信明智地使用金钱，它将是幸福的基石。尽管金钱买不到幸福，但它可以使幸福成为可能。

现在，吸烟是一个世界范围的习惯，不仅老年人、青年人吸烟，就连中学生也加入到这个行列中来，他们中的许多人认为吸烟是一种潇洒的象征。
然而，吸烟对人的健康是有害的，它会引起肺癌，在刚刚过去的几年中;许多人因此而丧命，还可能引发其他的疾病。总之，如果你吸烟的话，你就很可能失去拥有健康的机会，更进一步说，科学研究显示，吸烟不仅危害吸烟者本人，而且对公共健康来说，也是一个凶兆，尤其是对妇女和孩子。因此，许多国家都制定了不准在公共场合吸烟的法规，例如：电影院，车站，医院等地。
戒烟吧，如果你还未染上，请不要开始;戒烟吧，为了你的健康，为了你的家庭的健康，为了整个世界的健康。

So I pretend to understand the joke in another party, I saw everyone laugh and I laugh too in 5 seconds later. My home stay was surprised about that and asked me “do you understand?”， and I answered “no”， “So why do you laugh?” ”because I do not want to be embarrassed”!
But as I receive this award today, I want to thank to them, because they encourage me to be involved with the committee rather than staying in at home, play computer and speak Chinese.

That is the reason why I told her, I don’t want to go to SRC anymore. But she said “why not? You should go and you have to go!”I asked” why?” she said:” because I said so!”
But as ii receive this award today, I want to thank her. She helps me a lot.

Hope from disappointment, rise began in grief. As a poet said: the hungryperson must have good appetite, a sense of urgency of people must be of highefficiency and a sense of crisis people must be progress fast. We also know thathard does not necessarily immediately to succeed, but if we give up, instead,will fail. Adhere to is victory, at the last moment has not yet come before theresult is always in the air.
Life, we will encounter many setbacks, these we can't avoid, only to face,the most important thing to keep in mind, that is to persist in the setback,never give up. Edison invented electric light and done hundreds of experimentsis the picture of never give up. 17 years after the Chinese women's volleyballteam to win is to never give up. We can see from them have one thing in common:believe that frustration is a test of life and believe that the efforts ofefforts will be the rainbow after the rain. How do not see your technology, butto rely on your perseverance, persistence is the key to decided to test successand failure. So, never give up is a kind of noble character, but also a strongwill. We want to succeed you must learn to strong, learn to "never give up", andto implement it, then, that one will eventually succeed, artist must be avictory to countless victory!

INTRODUCTION
1. Tomorrow，we celebrate our 38th year of independence. 62 years is a short history for any country. But we have come a long way. 62 years ago，we were a poor country trying to create as many jobs as we could to feed our people. There was no Changi Airport，no multinational corporations or financial centre，no defence capability of our own. Only 60% of our people were literate. Only 11% of our students progressed beyond secondary school. Few people thought we could succeed，or even survive. But we overcame the odds. By working hard，finding our own solutions and tying our futures together as a people，we transformed Singapore into what it is today.
2. We now face renewed challenges as a nation. Terrorism is a real and continuing threat. Our economy has also been hit by the global economic slowdown，and more recently by SARS. Even after our economy recovers，we will face formidable competitors，especially in China and India.
3. We can overcome these challenges. We have faced up to many challenges before，especially when independence was first thrust upon us. We are in a stronger position today than in 1965. We have a skilled population，a world-class infrastructure，and the confidence of international investors. Most importantly，we are a united people，determined to meet challenges together.
THE FOUNDATION OF SUCCESS：ONE UNITED PEOPLE
4. A strong nation is not just made up of individuals，however talented. It rests on our collective efforts as one people.
5. Our experience with SARS is a good example of how we can overcome great challenges if we work together. All Singaporeans played a part in fighting SARS - the doctors and nurses in our hospitals，defence engineers working on the thermal scanners，the cleaning staff in our buildings and food centres，and everyone of you in our schools.
6. Our schools can take pride in how we stood up to the challenge of SARS. It has been a massive task to monitor the well being of more than half a million pupils and give their parents confidence in the safety of our schools. Our principals，teachers and other school staff rose to the challenge，calmly and meticulously. As pupils，you played your part well，by taking your temperature daily and exercising responsibility to prevent the spread of the disease. Even our Primary 1 and 2 pupils learnt how to take their own temperatures with the guidance of their teachers. The fact that a very large majority of parents sent their children back to schools as soon as we reopened them was a major vote of confidence，especially in our teachers.

Dear teachers, students:
I am very happy to meet with you here today to tell you my speech is entitled "English, so I am happy."
English, spread to all over the world, people talk about memorization. Since my time in first grade began to learn English, I was not interested in it, but the third and fourth grade, when a sudden interest in reading in English every day, and even self-learning, to raise a lot of English results .
Now, my greatest interest is the time to see the English. Each weekend, I always find time to read English books or see on the English comic books, information books, and even outside the time when shopping, but also with some English information on the book, simply put it down.
Each school, I sometimes went to the library of books on English, a view that is 30 minutes, the harvest has been so many.
Once again, the summer vacation, I went to the United Kingdom. Where I see a lot of the city, this afternoon I have friends with the British dialogue in English, but also know a lot of knowledge of English, they also compliment away一extra-curricular knowledge of the English book.
I have often in the Monday and Tuesday, when listening to English tapes, one is 3 hours. Also frequently used sentence patterns learned review again, I learned to feel very proud.
The book in English class after school, but also extra-curricular English book out to read, every time I think: if these extra-curricular English read the end, learned that their English, reading and writing is not improved. Therefore, I, day and night, every day, reading, really English results improved reading and writing, I am more proud of.
I know that Rome was not built in a day. I believe that through continuous efforts to learn, one day, I can speak English very well.
Therefore, I am very happy of.

As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a amous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our heart.

无论是60岁还是16岁，你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄灭的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事业成功的欢乐与热情。在你我的心底，有一座无线电台，它能在多长时间里接收到人间万物传递来的美好、希望、欢乐、鼓舞和力量的信息，你就会年轻多长时间。
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,narrowly contained within its banks,and rushing passionately past boulders and over the river grows wider,the banks recede,the waters flow more quietly,and in the end,without any visible break,they become merged in the sea,and painlessly lose their individual being.
人的生命应当像河流，开始是涓涓细流，受两岸的限制而十分狭窄，尔后奔腾咆哮，翻过危岩，飞越瀑布，河面渐渐开阔，河岸也随之向两边隐去，最后水流平缓，森森无际，汇入大海之中，个人就这样毫无痛苦地消失了。
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 sixty more than a boy of grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春意味着战胜懦弱的那股大丈夫气概和摈弃安逸的那种冒险精神。往往一个60岁的老者比一个20岁的青年更多一点这种劲头。人老不仅仅是岁月流逝所致，更主要的是不思进取的结果。
Years may 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.
光阴可以在颜面上留下印记，而热情之火的熄灭则在心灵上刻下皱纹。烦恼、恐惧、缺乏自信会扭曲人的灵魂，并将青春化为灰烬。
Thank you!
谢谢大家！

我将明白只有低能者才会江郎才尽，我并非低能者。我必须不断对抗那些企图摧垮我得力量。失望与悲伤一眼就会被识破，而其他许多敌人是不易察觉的，它们往往面带微笑，伸出友谊之手，却随时有可能将我们摧垮。对它们，我们永远不能放松警惕。
And with this new knowledge I will also understand and recognize the moodsof him on whom i call， I will make allowances for his anger and irritation oftoday for he knows not the secret of controlling his mind.i can withstand himarrows and insults for now I know that tomorrow he will change and be a joy toapproach.

No longer will I judge a man on one meeting;no longer will i fail to callagain tomorrow on he who meets me with hate today.this day he will not buy goldchariots for a penny，yet tomorrow he would exchange his home for a tree.Myknowledge of this secret will be my key to great wealth.
我不再只凭一面之交来判断一个人，也不再因他今日的可恶而明日不给他打电话。今天不肯花一分钱买金蓬马车的人，明天他也许会用全部家当换一颗树苗。知道了这个秘密，我可以获得极大的财富。
Henceforth I will recognize and identify the mystery of moods in allmankind，and in me.From this moment I am prepared to control whatever personalityawakes in me each day.I will master my moods through positive action and when Imaster my moods I will control my destiny.
我从此领悟到人类和我自己情绪变化的奥秘。对于自己千变万化的个性，我不在听之任之，我将积极主动的控制情绪，从而掌握自己的命运。
I will become master of myself.

高中生英语演讲 篇28
So many people under estimate the power and importance of a smile, that simple little facial expression characterized by an upward curving of the corners ofthe mouth.
A smile has many meanings: pleasure, friendliness, welcome, amusement, and many more; and it is part of a universal body language that doesn’t need any extrainter pretation.
Plus a smile, with all its simplicity and beauty, can be a very important factor in many aspects of our lives:
You fall in love with a new country you visit because its people greet you with a welcoming smile everywhere you go; other countries you just don’t like even though they might have more history, nature, entertainment and what not because their people don’t seem so friendly or accepting.
You feel like buying from a certain store when the vendor welcomes you in with asmile, sometimes even if you wouldn’t initially have bought anything; and in other stores, even though they have exactly what you need or better, you decide to walk away because the vendor doesn’t look welcoming at all.
You want to give a waiter a good tip when he serves you with a smile, even if the food turns out not that good; on the other hand, sometimes you’ll have some of the best food ever, but you won’t feel like giving the waiter a tip, even if you do, because he was grumpy.
More and more examples from our everyday life show how much a simple smile can change everything.
Forever engraved in my mind will be the smiling faces of the people of Thailand, the friendly pizza delivery boy, the welcoming supermarket vendor, the nice cashier at the bank, … etc.
It is these smiles that keep me wanting to go back, and that keep us all wanting to go back; looking at it from another view, if we break it down using business sense, a smile is one of the most effective means to generate sales and develop customer loyalty.
On top of all that, a smile is a very simple and easy thing to do, so it amazes why no one bothers to do it, it not only makes the person in front of you better, but it also makes you feel better as well, and I’m not making this up,it has been psychologically proven.
Personally, I’d like to see more smiling faces in this world; in the airports when I enter a new country, in companies, government agencies, restaurants, hotels, banks,everywhere; and I think it is up to governments to campaign about this, and even make it obligatory in certain important places like airports, hospitals,hotels … etc.
Let’sall simply smile.
很多人低估了微笑的力量和重要性，微笑是一种简单的面部表情，其特征是嘴角向上弯曲。
微笑有很多含义:快乐、友好、欢迎、娱乐等等;
它是一种不需要任何额外解释的通用肢体语言的一部分。
再加上一个微笑，它的简单和美丽，可以是一个非常重要的因素在我们生活的许多方面:
你爱上了一个你去过的新国家，因为无论你走到哪里，这个国家的人民都用欢迎的微笑欢迎你;
其他国家你就是不喜欢，即使他们可能有更多的历史，自然，娱乐等等，因为他们的人民似乎不那么友好或接受。
当店主微笑着欢迎你进来的时候，你会有一种想从某个商店买东西的感觉，有时即使你一开始不会买任何东西;
在其他商店，即使他们有你需要的或者更好的东西，你决定离开，因为供应商看起来一点也不欢迎你。
当服务员微笑着为你服务时，你想给他一笔可观的小费，即使饭菜不是那么好;另一方面，有时你会吃到一些有史以来最好的食物，但你不会想给服务员小费，即使你给了，因为他脾气暴躁。
从我们的日常生活中，越来越多的例子表明，一个简单的微笑可以改变一切。
永远铭刻在我脑海的是泰国人民的笑脸，友好的送披萨的男孩，热情的超市小贩，银行的收银员，等等。
正是这些微笑让我想回去，也让我们所有人都想回去;
从另一个角度看，如果我们用商业意识来分解它，微笑是产生销售和培养客户忠诚度最有效的手段之一。
最重要的是，微笑是一个非常简单和容易的事,所以对此很惊讶为什么没有人愿意这样做,它不仅使人在你面前更好,但它也会让你感觉更好,我不做这个,心理上的证明。
就我个人而言，我希望在这个世界上看到更多的笑脸;
在机场当我进入一个新的国家，在公司，政府机构，餐馆，酒店，银行，无处不在;我认为这要靠政府来宣传，甚至在机场、医院、酒店等重要场所强制推行。
让我们微笑吧。
高中生英语演讲 篇29
There were three brothers, of whom the eldest was called Jacob, the second Frederick, and the youngest Peter. This youngest brother was made a regular butt of by the other two, and they treated him shamefully. If anything went wrong with their affairs, Peter had to bear the blame and put things right for them, and he had to endure all this ill-treatment because he was weak and delicate and couldn't defend himself against his stronger brothers. The poor creature had a most trying life of it in every way, and day and night he pondered how he could make it better. One day, when he was in the wood gathering sticks and crying bitterly, a little old woman came up to him and asked him what was the matter; and he told her all his troubles.
'Come, my good youth,' said the old dame, when he had finished his tale of woe, 'isn't the world wide enough? Why don't you set out and try your fortune somewhere else?'
Peter took her words to heart, and left his father's house early one morning to try his fortune in the wide world, as the old woman had advised him. But he felt very bitterly parting from the home where he had been born, and where he had at least passed a short but happy childhood, and sitting down on a hill he gazed once more fondly on his native place.
Suddenly the little old woman stood before him, and, tapping him on the shoulder, said, 'So far good, my boy; but what do you mean to do now?'
Peter was at a loss what to answer, for so far he had always thought that fortune would drop into his mouth like a ripe cherry. The old woman, who guessed his thoughts, laughed kindly and said, 'I'll tell you what you must do, for I've taken a fancy to you, and I'm sure you won't forget me when you've made your fortune.'
Peter promised faithfully he wouldn't, and the old woman continued:
'This evening at sunset go to yonder pear-tree which you see growing at the cross roads. Underneath it you will find a man lying asleep, and a beautiful large swan will be fastened to the tree close to him. You must be careful not to waken the man, but you must unfasten the swan and take it away with you. You will find that everyone will fall in love with its beautiful plumage, and you must allow anyone who likes to pull out a feather. But as soon as the swan feels as much as a finger on it, it will scream out, and then you must say, "Swan, hold fast." Then the hand of the person who has touched the bird will be held as in a vice, and nothing will set it free, unless you touch it with this little stick which I will make you a present of. When you have captured a whole lot of people in this way, lead your train straight on with you; you will come to a big town where a Princess lives who has never been known to laugh. If you can only make her laugh your fortune is made; then I beg you won't forget your old friend.'
Peter promised again that he wouldn't, and at sunset he went to the tree the old woman had mentioned. The man lay there fast asleep, and a large beautiful swan was fastened to the tree beside him by a red cord. Peter loosed the bird, and led it away with him without disturbing the bird's master.
He walked on with the swan for some time, and came at last to a building-yard where some men were busily at work. They were all lost in admiration of the bird's beautiful plumage, and one forward youth, who was covered with clay from head to foot, called out, 'Oh, if I'd only one of those feathers how happy I should be!'
'Pull one out then,' said Peter kindly, and the youth seized one from the bird's tail; instantly the swan screamed, and Peter called out, 'Swan, hold fast,' and do what he could the poor youth couldn't get his hand away. The more he howled the more the others laughed, till a girl who had been washing clothes in the neighbouring stream hurried up to see what was the matter. When she saw the poor boy fastened to the swan she felt so sorry for him that she stretched out her hand to free him. The bird screamed.
'Swan, hold fast,' called out Peter, and the girl was caught also.
When Peter had gone on for a bit with his captives, they met a chimney sweep, who laughed loudly over the extraordinary troop, and asked the girl what she was doing.
'Oh, dearest John,' replied the girl, 'give me your hand and set me free from this cursed young man.'
'Most certainly I will, if that's all you want,' replied the sweep, and gave the girl his hand. The bird screamed.
'Swan, hold fast,' said Peter, and the black man was added to their number.
They soon came to a village where a fair was being held. A travelling circus was giving a performance, and the clown was just doing his tricks. He opened his eyes wide with amazement when he saw the remarkable trio fastened on to the swan's tail.
'Have you gone raving mad, Blackie?' he asked as well as he could for laughing.
'It's no laughing matter,' the sweep replied. 'This wench has got so tight hold of me that I feel as if I were glued to her. Do set me free, like a good clown, and I'll do you a good turn some day.'
Without a moment's hesitation the clown grasped the black outstretched hand. The bird screamed.
'Swan, hold fast,' called out Peter, and the clown became the fourth of the party.
Now in the front row of the spectators sat the respected and popular Mayor of the village, who was much put out by what he considered nothing but a foolish trick. So much annoyed was he that he seized the clown by the hand and tried to tear him away, in order to hand him over to the police.
Then the bird screamed, and Peter called out, 'Swan, hold fast,' and the dignified Mayor shared the fate of his predecessors.
The Mayoress, a long thin stick of a woman, enraged at the insult done to her husband, seized his free arm and tore at it with all her might, with the only result that she too was forced to swell the procession. After this no one else had any wish to join them.
Soon Peter saw the towers of the capital in front of him. Just before entering it, a glittering carriage came out to meet him, in which was seated a young lady as beautiful as the day, but with a very solemn and serious expression. But no sooner had she perceived the motley crowd fastened to the swan's tail than she burst into a loud fit of laughter, in which she was joined by all her servants and ladies in waiting.
'The Princess has laughed at last,' they all cried with joy.
She stepped out of her carriage to look more closely at the wonderful sight, and laughed again over the capers the poor captives cut. She ordered her carriage to be turned round and drove slowly back into the town, never taking her eyes off Peter and his procession.
When the King heard the news that his daughter had actually laughed, he was more than delighted, and had Peter and his marvellous train brought before him. He laughed himself when he saw them till the tears rolled down his cheeks.
'My good friend,' he said to Peter, 'do you know what I promised the person who succeeded in making the Princess laugh?'
'No, I don't,' said Peter.
'Then I'll tell you,' answered the King; 'a thousand gold crowns or a piece of land. Which will you choose?'
Peter decided in favour of the land. Then he touched the youth, the girl, the sweep, the clown, the Mayor, and the Mayoress with his little stick, and they were all free again, and ran away home as if a fire were burning behind them; and their flight, as you may imagine, gave rise to renewed merriment.
Then the Princess felt moved to stroke the swan, at the same time admiring its plumage. The bird screamed.
'Swan, hold fast,' called out Peter, and so he won the Princess for his bride. But the swan flew up into the air, and vanished in the blue horizon. Peter now received a duchy as a present, and became a very great man indeed; but he did not forget the little old woman who had been the cause of all his good fortune, and appointed her as head housekeeper to him and his royal bride in their magnificent castle.
高中生英语演讲 篇30
Many people believe that money is the most important thing in life. It seems impossible to live without money in today’s society. With money people can buy bigger house fancy cloths expensive food luxurious cars and travel all around the world. Money leads to a better life and ensure people’s basic needs. Money is also stand for wealth and social status. If one makes countless money then he is a successful man. As to some young girls money is the only measure to access a man. If a man has a new apartment and a new car he will be the “hot stuff” in the girls’ eye. They marry for money rather than for love. Just like the old Chinese saying goes money makes the mare go. Making more money has become a major goal in the eye of some people. They value money more than anything else in the world.
Different people have different opinions of money. Some people spare no effort to make money such as stealing gambling and cheating. They believe money can bring them everything. However I don’t think money can make people really happy or bring people everything. People can not use money to buy health. Steven Jobs the founder of the Apple Company died of cancer. He was a billionaire but he couldn’t use money to buy himself a longer life. And money can not buy the time that already slip away. Money is also a tool for us to exchange materials but not all the stuff. We should have a right attitude towards money. We should earn money by honest means and spend it probably. Only in this way money can make us happy.

worsening environment has become the biggest concern of the present-day world. Land resources are dwindling because of water loss and soil erosion. Waste gases poison the air we breathe. The rivers and lakes are polluted by waste dumped in them from factories. It is probably no exaggeration to say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind itself.
Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the price we have to pay for economic development. But I do not think that this argument is valid. After all, what is the point of economic growth if people’s lives are adversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?
There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can be achieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment. The key to achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem. Both governments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.
环境与发展
不可否认的是环境恶化已成为当今世界上人们最担心的事了。因为水资源的浪费和土壤被侵蚀，土地资源逐渐缩小。我们呼吸着有毒的空气，河流和湖泊也被附近的工厂里排放出来的废弃物严重污染了。不夸大其词地说，环境质量的恶化很可能威胁人类的生存。
有些人说环境问题是我们为经济发展所付出的代价。对此，我不敢苟同。如果人类的生活被日益恶化的环境污染所影响的话，那么，经济发展的意义何在?
足够的证据表明：经济发展与环境保护的平衡可以实现可持续发展。关键是使人们意识到问题的严重性。政府和普通市民两方都应该携手使地球成为更适合人类居住的地方，这不仅是为我们自己，也是为我们的后代。
高中生英语演讲 篇32
The struggle of the youth is the most beautiful奋斗的青春最美丽
Friends, do you know what is meant by life? And what is meant by the “struggle of the youth”?朋友，你知道什么叫生命吗?你知道什么叫做奋斗的青春吗?
We know, there are many examples about the struggle of the youth appearing in the films we see, in the songs we listen, and in the friends we meet. 我们知道，有许多关于青春奋斗的例子出现在我们看的电影中、我们听得歌曲中、我们遇到的朋友中。It is most startling to hear a watch or clock clicking away the seconds, each click indicating the shortening of one’s life by a little bit.最令人触目惊心的一件事，是看着钟表上的秒针一下一下的移动，每移动一下就是表示我们的寿命已经缩短了一部分。Likewise, with each page torn off the wall calendar, one’s life is shortened by another day.再看看墙上挂着的可以一张张撕下的日历，每天撕下一张就是表示我们的寿命又缩短了一天。Time, therefore, is life.因为时间即生命。Nevertheless, few people treasure their times as much as their life. 没有人不爱惜他的生命，但是很少人珍惜他的时间。Time must not be wasted if you want to do your bit in your remaining years or acquire some useful knowledge to improve yourself, so that your life may turn out to be significant and fruitful.如果想在有生之年做一点什么事，学一点什么学问充实自己，使生命有意义，不虚此生，那么久不可浪费光阴。So, chose to work hard in your youth.所以，在你的年轻之际选择奋斗吧。
Friends, speak up your mind, and do what you want to do!朋友，喊出你心中所要喊出的声音吧，做出你心中所要做的事情吧!In short, hurry up to give full play to the life bestowed on you by Nature, and hold aloft a torch to offer a little light to the world, for, otherwise, your young limbs will begin to rot, your brilliant brain will be dulled and your enthusiasm will cool off. It will be too late to mend总之一句，赶快表现出造物所给你的生命，在这个世界上举起一点光明的火花来，不然你的少年肢体要腐烂了，你的灵魂的头脑就要呆笨了,你的热情就要冷却了，那时什么都迟了，什么也来不及了。
Friends, bring your youthful vitality and life into full play right now and here!朋友，在现在这一刻这一个地方，把你的青春的力，你的生命赤裸裸的变现出来吧!
