hello everyone! my name is___, a student from_______college. i am glad to give you a speech about my university. the title of my speech is my college, my home.
last september i left my hometown with heavy baggage and after a journey of ten hours, i came to this dream campus with great e_pectation and e_citement.
i was deeply attracted by the elegant environment of our campus the moment i stepped into the university. straight, wide roads enjoyed the shade and shelter provided by lordly, green trees. ancient buildings of great refinement enjoyed the company of flocks of birds flying and singing overhead. scrolls of warm welcome greeted me and volunteers with smiles came to my help. my heart was filled with warmth. yeah, this is the place where i will spend 4 years and this place will be my home!
whenever i recall the past days, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. but what impressed me most is a night when i got a stomachache during the first days. i had to turn to the aunts in charge of our dormitory for help. they were so friendly and warm-hearted. they gave me the pills and reminded me of having more hot water. i recovered soon and i thanked them from the bottom of my heart because they brought me the warmth of home.
our university is a famous academic center. the teaching staff are all learned professors. many of them are world-wide known for their wide range of knowledge and charming personality. i respect my teachers! i admire my teachers! i love my teachers! various activities are carried here. they not only bring me happiness but also improve myself. i meet with a lot of classmates and make a large number of friends. when i feel upset, the will give me a hand; when i am happy, i will share with them. the library has a large collection of books and i always lose myself in it. i believe they will benefit me a lot and are to broaden the roads of my future.
i love you,____university! you are just a place which gives me warmth and strengths! you are my home!

英语励志演讲稿:9岁“小孩总统”励志演讲
"kid president小孩总统"充满激情的励志演讲,他是来自美国田纳西州的小男孩robby novak,今年9岁。这位看起来充满活力、上串下跳的小男孩,患有成骨不全症,又称"脆骨症"。robby想通过他的演讲,让大人们少点烦恼,世界自然美好。这篇名为"a pep talk from kid president to you"的演讲,已有1600万观众看过。希望他能给你带来启发。
a pep talk from kid president to you
"总统小孩"带给你的精神讲话
i think we all need a pep talk.
我觉得我们都需要一段精神讲话。
the world needs you. stop being boring. yeah, you. boring is easy. everybody can be boring, but you"re gooder than that.
这世界需要你。别闷在那里。对,就是你。令人厌倦很容易。每个人都可以是很无趣的,但是你可比那样好得多了。
life is not a game, people! life isn"t a cereal either. well, it is a cereal. and if life is a game, aren"t we all on the same team? i mean, really right? i"m on your team. be on my team. this is life, people! you"ve got air coming through your nose. you"ve got a heartbeat! that means it"s time to do something! a poem: "two roads diverged in the woods…and i took the road less traveled…and it hurt, man!" really bad! rocks! thorns! and glass! my pants broke! waahh! not cool, robert frost! but what if there really were two paths? i wanna be in the one that leads to awesome.
人们啊,人生不是一场比赛!人生也不是麦片。好吧,是麦片。而如果人生是一场比赛,那我们不都在同一队?我意思是,真的,对吧?我在你那一队。来我的队伍吧。人们啊,这就是人生!你有呼吸。你有心跳!那代表着是时候该去做点什么事情了!一首诗:「两条路岔入树林…而我挑选了人迹罕至那条…老兄,它艰辛坎坷!」非常糟糕!巨石!荆棘!还有玻璃!我的裤子破了!哇哇!这可不酷,robert frost(本诗作者)!但要是真有两条路呢?我想要在迈向非凡的那一条路上。
it"s like that dude journey said, "don"t stop believing, unless your dream is stupid." then you should get a better dream. i think that"s how it goes. get a better dream, then keep going. keep going, keep going and keep going. what if michael jordan had quit? well, he did quit. but he retired. yeah, that"s it. he retired. but before that, in high school, what if he quit when he didn"t make the team? he would have never made space jam, and i love space jam. what will be your space jam? what will you create when you make the world awesome? nothing if you keep sitting there! that"s why i"m talking to you today.
就像那位老兄journey说过的:「不要停止相信,除非你的梦想是愚蠢的。」那样的话你应该要有个更棒的梦想。我想它就是那么一回事。拥有一个更棒的梦想,接着持续前进。继续前进、前进然后继续前进。假如michael jordan以前放弃了呢?这个嘛,他的确退出了。但他是退休了。对,就是那样。他退休了。但在那之前,在高中时,假如在没有选盔校队时他放弃了的话呢?那他就永远不会演出《怪物奇兵》,然而我爱《怪物奇兵》。你的《怪物奇兵》又会是什么呢?当你使世界惊奇的时候,你将会创造出什么?如果你一直坐在那里就什么也没有!那就是为什么今天我对你说话。
this is your time! this is my time! it"s our time! we can make everyday better for each other. if we"re all on the same team, let"s start acting like it. we"ve got work to do. we can cry about it, or we can dance about it. we were made to be awesome. let"s get out there. i don"t know everything. i"m just a kid, but i do know this: it"s everybody"s duty to give the world a reason to dance. so get to it!
这是你的时代!这是我的时代!是我们的时代!我们可以为了彼此让每一天更好。如果我们全都在同一队,就让我们像支队伍般开始行动。我们有工作要做。我们可以为此而哭哭啼啼,或者我们可以为此而雀跃不已。我们生来成就美好。让我们走出去。我并不了解一切事物。我只是个小孩,但我确实知道这个:给这个世界一个理由开心起舞是每个人的责任。所以去吧!
you"ve just been pep talked! create something that will make the world awesome. play ball!
你才刚听完了精神讲话!创造个什么可以使这世界美好的东西吧。打球!
oh, hi everybody! we"re all working hard to make this an awesome year for other people, and you guys are doing it! you"ve been super encouraging to me, so i wanna return the favor. who do you know that needs some encouragement? pass this pep talk along, and let"s get the whole world to dance. i"m dedicating this video today to my friend gabbi. she"s a cool kid, she likes pancakes and she"s fighting cancer, like a boss! and to all you watching, who encourages you? send them this video and let them know. so get to it!

heal the kids – o_ford speech
o_ford university, march 2024 by michael jackson
thank you, thank you dear friends, from the bottom of my heart, for such a loving and spirited welcome, and thank you, mr president, for your kind invitation to me which i am so honored to accept. i also want to e_press a special thanks to you shmuley, who for 11 years served as rabbi here at o_ford. you and i have been working so hard to form heal the kids, as well as writing our book about childlike qualities, and in all of our efforts you have been such a supportive and loving friend. and i would also like to thank toba friedman, our director of operations at heal the kids, who is returning tonight to the alma mater where she served as a marshall scholar, as well as marilyn piels, another central member of our heal the kids team.
i am humbled to be lecturing in a place that has previously been filled by such notable figures as mother theresa, albert einstein, ronald reagan, robert kennedy and malcolm _. i"ve even heard that kermit the frog has made an appearance here, and i"ve always felt a kinship with kermit"s message that it"s not easy being green. i"m sure he didn"t find it any easier being up here than i do!
as i looked around o_ford today, i couldn"t help but be aware of the majesty and grandeur of this great institution, not to mention the brilliance of the great and gifted minds that have roamed these streets for centuries. the walls of o_ford have not only housed the greatest philosophical and scientific geniuses – they have also ushered forth some of the most cherished creators of children"s literature, from j.r.r. tolkien to cs lewis. today i was allowed to hobble into the dining hall in christ church to see lewis carroll"s alice in wonderland immortalized in the stained glass windows. and even one of my own fellow americans, the beloved dr seuss graced these halls and then went on to leave his mark on the imaginations of millions of children throughout the world.
i suppose i should start by listing my qualifications to speak before you this evening. friends, i do not claim to have the academic e_pertise of other speakers who have addressed this hall, just as they could lay little claim at being adept at the moonwalk – and you know, einstein in particular was really terrible at that.
but i do have a claim to having e_perienced more places and cultures than most people will ever see. human knowledge consists not only of libraries of parchment and ink – it is also comprised of the volumes of knowledge that are written on the human heart, chiseled on the human soul, and engraved on the human psyche. and friends, i have encountered so much in this relatively short life of mine that i still cannot believe i am chiseled only 42. i often tell shmuley that in soul years i"m sure that i"m at least 80 – and tonight i even walk like i"m 80! so please harken to my message, because what i have to tell you tonight can bring healing to humanity and healing to our planet.
through the grace of god, i have been fortunate to have achieved many of my artistic and professional aspirations realized early in my lifetime. but these, friends are accomplishments, and accomplishments alone are not synonymous with who i am. indeed, the cheery five-year-old who belted out rockin" robin and ben to adoring crowds was not indicative of the boy behind the smile.
tonight, i come before you less as an icon of pop (whatever that means anyway), and more as an icon of a generation, a generation that no longer knows what it means to be children.
all of us are products of our childhood. but i am the product of a lack of a childhood, an absence of that precious and wondrous age when we frolic playfully without a care in the world, basking in the adoration of parents and relatives, where our biggest concern is studying for that big spelling test come monday morning.
those of you who are familiar with the jackson five know that i began performing at the tender age of five and that ever since then, i haven"t stopped dancing or singing. but while performing and making music undoubtedly remain as some of my greatest joys, when i was young i wanted more than anything else to be a typical little boy. i wanted to build tree houses, have water balloon fights, and play hide and seek with my friends. but fate had it otherwise and all i could do was envy the laughter and playtime that seemed to be going on all around me.
there was no respite from my professional life. but on sundays i would go pioneering, the term used for the missionary work that jehovah"s witnesses do. and it was then that i was able to see the magic of other people"s childhood.
since i was already a celebrity, i would have to don a disguise of fat suit, wig, beard and glasses and we would spend the day in the suburbs of southern california, going door-to-door or making the rounds of shopping malls, distributing our watchtower magazine. i loved to set foot in all those regular suburban houses and catch sight of the shag rugs and la-z-boy armchairs with kids playing monopoly and grandmas baby-sitting and all those wonderful, ordinary and starry scenes of everyday life. many, i know, would argue that these things seem like no big deal. but to me they were mesmerizing.
i used to think that i was unique in feeling that i was without a childhood. i believed that indeed there were only a handful with whom i could share those feelings. when i recently met with shirley temple black, the great child star of the 1930s and 40s, we said nothing to each other at first, we simply cried together, for she could share a pain with me that only others like my close friends elizabeth taylor and mccauley culkin know.
i do not tell you this to gain your sympathy but to impress upon you my first important point : it is not just hollywood child stars that have suffered from a non-e_istent childhood. today, it"s a universal calamity, a global catastrophe. childhood has become the great casualty of modern-day living. all around us we are producing scores of kids who have not had the joy, who have not been accorded the right, who have not been allowed the freedom, or knowing what it"s like to be a kid.
today children are constantly encouraged to grow up faster, as if this period known as childhood is a burdensome stage, to be endured and ushered through, as swiftly as possible. and on that subject, i am certainly one of the world"s greatest e_perts.
ours is a generation that has witnessed the abrogation of the parent-child covenant. psychologists are publishing libraries of books detailing the destructive effects of denying one"s children the unconditional love that is so necessary to the healthy development of their minds and character. and because of all the neglect, too many of our kids have, essentially, to raise themselves. they are growing more distant from their parents, grandparents and other family members, as all around us the indestructible bond that once glued together the generations, unravels.
this violation has bred a new generation, generation o let us call it, that has now picked up the torch from generation _. the o stands for a generation that has everything on the outside – wealth, success, fancy clothing and fancy cars, but an aching emptiness on the inside. that cavity in our chests, that barrenness at our core, that void in our centre is the place where the heart once beat and which love once occupied.
and it"s not just the kids who are suffering. it"s the parents as well. for the more we cultivate little-adults in kids"-bodies, the more removed we ourselves become from our own child-like qualities, and there is so much about being a child that is worth retaining in adult life.
love, ladies and gentlemen, is the human family"s most precious legacy, its richest bequest, its golden inheritance. and it is a treasure that is handed down from one generation to another. previous ages may not have had the wealth we enjoy. their houses may have lacked electricity, and they squeezed their many kids into small homes without central heating. but those homes had no darkness, nor were they cold. they were lit bright with the glow of love and they were warmed snugly by the very heat of the human heart. parents, undistracted by the lust for lu_ury and status, accorded their children primacy in their lives.
as you all know, our two countries broke from each other over what thomas jefferson referred to as "certain inalienable rights". and while we americans and british might dispute the justice of his claims, what has never been in dispute is that children have certain inalienable rights, and the gradual erosion of those rights has led to scores of children worldwide being denied the joys and security of childhood.
i would therefore like to propose tonight that we install in every home a children"s universal bill of rights, the tenets of which are:
1. the right to be loved without having to earn it
2. the right to be protected, without having to deserve it
3. the right to feel valuable, even if you came into the world with nothing
4. the right to be listened to without having to be interesting
5. the right to be read a bedtime story, without having to compete with the evening news
6. the right to an education without having to dodge bullets at schools
7. the right to be thought of as adorable – (even if you have a face that only a mother could love).
friends, the foundation of all human knowledge, the beginning of human consciousness, must be that each and every one of us is an object of love. before you know if you have red hair or brown, before you know if you are black or white, before you know of what religion you are a part, you have to know that you are loved.
about twelve years ago, when i was just about to start my bad tour, a little boy came with his parents to visit me at home in california. he was dying of cancer and he told me how much he loved my music and me. his parents told me that he wasn"t going to live, that any day he could just go, and i said to him: "look, i am going to be coming to your town in kansas to open my tour in three months. i want you to come to the show. i am going to give you this jacket that i wore in one of my videos." his eyes lit up and he said: "you are gonna give it to me?" i said "yeah, but you have to promise that you will wear it to the show." i was trying to make him hold on. i said: "when you come to the show i want to see you in this jacket and in this glove" and i gave him one of my rhinestone gloves – and i never usually give the rhinestone gloves away. and he was just in heaven.
but maybe he was too close to heaven, because when i came to his town, he had already died, and they had buried him in the glove and jacket. he was just 10 years old. god knows, i know, that he tried his best to hold on. but at least when he died, he knew that he was loved, not only by his parents, but even by me, a near stranger, i also loved him. and with all of that love he knew that he didn"t come into this world alone, and he certainly didn"t leave it alone.
if you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can he dealt with. a professor may degrade you, but you will not feel degraded, a boss may crush you, but you will not be crushed, a corporate gladiator might vanquish you, but you will still triumph. how could any of them truly prevail in pulling you down? for you know that you are an object worthy of love. the rest is just packaging.
but if you don"t have that memory of being loved, you are condemned to search the world for something to fill you up. but no matter how much money you make or how famous you become, you will still fell empty. what you are really searching for is unconditional love, unqualified acceptance. and that was the one thing that was denied to you at birth.
friends, let me paint a picture for you. here is a typical day in america – si_ youths under the age of 20 will commit suicide, 12 children under the age of 20 will die from firearms – remember this is a day, not a year – 399 kids will be arrested for drug abuse, 1,352 babies will be born to teen mothers. this is happening in one of the richest, most developed countries in the history of the world.
yes, in my country there is an epidemic of violence that parallels no other industrialized nation. these are the ways young people in america e_press their hurt and their anger. but don"t think that there is not the same pain and anguish among their counterparts in the united kingdom. studies in this country show that every single hour, three teenagers in the uk inflict harm upon themselves, often by cutting or burning their bodies or taking an overdose. this is how they have chosen to cope with the pain of neglect and emotional agony.
in britain, as many as 20% of families will only sit down and have dinner together once a year. once a year! and what about the time-honored tradition of reading your kid a bedtime story? research from the 1980s showed that children who are read to, had far greater literacy and significantly outperformed their peers at school. and yet, less than 33% of british children ages two to eight have a regular bedtime story read to them. you may not think much of that until you take into account that 75% of their parents did have that bedtime story when they were that age.
clearly, we do not have to ask ourselves where all of this pain, anger and violent behavior comes from. it is self-evident that children are thundering against the neglect, quaking against the indifference and crying out just to be noticed. the various child protection agencies in the us say that millions of children are victims of maltreatment in the form of neglect, in the average year. yes, neglect. in rich homes, privileged homes, wired to the hilt with every electronic gadget. homes where parents come home, but they"re not really home, because their heads are still at the office. and their kids? well, their kids just make do with whatever emotional crumbs they get. and you don"t get much from endless tv, computer games and videos.
these hard, cold numbers which for me, wrench the soul and shake the spirit, should indicate to you why i have devoted so much of my time and resources into making our new heal the kids initiative a colossal success.
our goal is simple – to recreate the parent/child bond, renew its promise and light the way forward for all the beautiful children who are destined one day to walk this earth.
but since this is my first public lecture, and you have so warmly welcomed me into your hearts, i feel that i want to tell you more. we each have our own story, and in that sense statistics can become personal.
they say that parenting is like dancing. you take one step, your child takes another. i have discovered that getting parents to re-dedicate themselves to their children is only half the story. the other half is preparing the children to re-accept their parents.
when i was very young i remember that we had this crazy mutt of a dog named "black girl," a mi_ of wolf and retriever. not only wasn"t she much of a guard dog, she was such a scared and nervous thing that it is a wonder she did not pass out every time a truck rumbled by, or a thunderstorm swept through indiana. my sister janet and i gave that dog so much love, but we never really won back the sense of trust that had been stolen from her by her previous owner. we knew he used to beat her. we didn"t know with what. but whatever it was, it was enough to suck the spirit right out of that dog.
a lot of kids today are hurt puppies who have weaned themselves off the need for love. they couldn"t care less about their parents. left to their own devices, they cherish their independence. they have moved on and have left their parents behind.
then there are the far worse cases of children who harbor animosity and resentment toward their parents, so that any overture that their parents might undertake would be thrown forcefully back in their face.
tonight, i don"t want any of us to make this mistake. that"s why i"m calling upon all the world"s children – beginning with all of us here tonight – to forgive our parents, if we felt neglected. forgive them and teach them how to love again.
you probably weren"t surprised to hear that i did not have an idyllic childhood. the strain and tension that e_ists in my relationship with my own father is well documented. my father is a tough man and he pushed my brothers and me hard, from the earliest age, to be the best performers we could be.
he had great difficulty showing affection. he never really told me he loved me. and he never really complimented me either. if i did a great show, he would tell me it was a good show. and if i did an ok show, he told me it was a lousy show.
he seemed intent, above all else, on making us a commercial success. and at that he was more than adept. my father was a managerial genius and my brothers and i owe our professional success, in no small measure, to the forceful way that he pushed us. he trained me as a showman and under his guidance i couldn"t miss a step.
but what i really wanted was a dad. i wanted a father who showed me love. and my father never did that. he never said i love you while looking me straight in the eye, he never played a game with me. he never gave me a piggyback ride, he never threw a pillow at me, or a water balloon.
but i remember once when i was about four years old, there was a little carnival and he picked me up and put me on a pony. it was a tiny gesture, probably something he forgot five minutes later. but because of that moment i have this special place in my heart for him. because that"s how kids are, the little things mean so much to them and for me, that one moment meant everything. i only e_perienced it that one time, but it made me feel really good, about him and the world.
but now i am a father myself, and one day i was thinking about my own children, prince and paris and how i wanted them to think of me when they grow up. to be sure, i would like them to remember how i always wanted them with me wherever i went, how i always tried to put them before everything else. but there are also challenges in their lives. because my kids are stalked by paparazzi, they can"t always go to a park or a movie with me.
so what if they grow older and resent me, and how my choices impacted their youth? why weren"t we given an average childhood like all the other kids, they might ask? and at that moment i pray that my children will give me the benefit of the doubt. that they will say to themselves: "our daddy did the best he could, given the unique circumstances that he faced. he may not have been perfect, but he was a warm and decent man, who tried to give us all the love in the world."
i hope that they will always focus on the positive things, on the sacrifices i willingly made for them, and not criticize the things they had to give up, or the errors i"ve made, and will certainly continue to make, in raising them. for we have all been someone"s child, and we know that despite the very best of plans and efforts, mistakes will always occur. that"s just being human.
and when i think about this, of how i hope that my children will not judge me unkindly, and will forgive my shortcomings, i am forced to think of my own father and despite my earlier denials, i am forced to admit that me must have loved me. he did love me, and i know that.
there were little things that showed it. when i was a kid i had a real sweet tooth – we all did. my favorite food was glazed doughnuts and my father knew that. so every few weeks i would come downstairs in the morning and there on the kitchen counter was a bag of glazed doughnuts – no note, no e_planation – just the doughnuts. it was like santa claus.
sometimes i would think about staying up late at night, so i could see him leave them there, but just like with santa claus, i didn"t want to ruin the magic for fear that he would never do it again. my father had to leave them secretly at night, so as no one might catch him with his guard down. he was scared of human emotion, he didn"t understand it or know how to deal with it. but he did know doughnuts.
and when i allow the floodgates to open up, there are other memories that come rushing back, memories of other tiny gestures, however imperfect, that showed that he did what he could. so tonight, rather than focusing on what my father didn"t do, i want to focus on all the things he did do and on his own personal challenges. i want to stop judging him.
i have started reflecting on the fact that my father grew up in the south, in a very poor family. he came of age during the depression and his own father, who struggled to feed his children, showed little affection towards his family and raised my father and his siblings with an iron fist. who could have imagined what it was like to grow up a poor black man in the south, robbed of dignity, bereft of hope, struggling to become a man in a world that saw my father as subordinate. i was the first black artist to be played on mtv and i remember how big a deal it was even then. and that was in the 80s!
my father moved to indiana and had a large family of his own, working long hours in the steel mills, work that kills the lungs and humbles the spirit, all to support his family. is it any wonder that he found it difficult to e_pose his feelings? is it any mystery that he hardened his heart, that he raised the emotional ramparts? and most of all, is it any wonder why he pushed his sons so hard to succeed as performers, so that they could be saved from what he knew to be a life of indignity and poverty?
i have begun to see that even my father"s harshness was a kind of love, an imperfect love, to be sure, but love nonetheless. he pushed me because he loved me. because he wanted no man ever to look down at his offspring.
and now with time, rather than bitterness, i feel blessing. in the place of anger, i have found absolution. and in the place of revenge i have found reconciliation. and my initial fury has slowly given way to forgiveness.
almost a decade ago, i founded a charity called heal the world. the title was something i felt inside me. little did i know, as shmuley later pointed out, that those two words form the cornerstone of old testament prophecy. do i really believe that we can heal this world, that is riddled with war and genocide, even today? and do i really think that we can heal our children, the same children who can enter their schools with guns and hatred and shoot down their classmates, like they did at columbine? or children who can beat a defenseless toddler to death, like the tragic story of jamie bulger? of course i do, or i wouldn"t be here tonight.
but it all begins with forgiveness, because to heal the world, we first have to heal ourselves. and to heal the kids, we first have to heal the child within, each and every one of us. as an adult, and as a parent, i realize that i cannot be a whole human being, nor a parent capable of unconditional love, until i put to rest the ghosts of my own childhood.
and that"s what i"m asking all of us to do tonight. live up to the fifth of the ten commandments. honor your parents by not judging them. give them the benefit of the doubt.
that is why i want to forgive my father and to stop judging him. i want to forgive my father, because i want a father, and this is the only one that i"ve got. i want the weight of my past lifted from my shoulders and i want to be free to step into a new relationship with my father, for the rest of my life, unhindered by the goblins of the past.
in a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. in a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. in a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. and in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.
to all of you tonight who feel let down by your parents, i ask you to let down your disappointment. to all of you tonight who feel cheated by your fathers or mothers, i ask you not to cheat yourself further. and to all of you who wish to push your parents away, i ask you to e_tend you hand to them instead. i am asking you, i am asking myself, to give our parents the gift of unconditional love, so that they too may learn how to love from us, their children. so that love will finally be restored to a desolate and lonely world.
shmuley once mentioned to me an ancient biblical prophecy which says that a new world and a new time would come, when "the hearts of the parents would be restored through the hearts of their children." my friends, we are that world, we are those children.
mahatma gandhi said: "the weak can never forgive. forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." tonight, be strong. beyond being strong, rise to the greatest challenge of all – to restore that broken covenant. we must all overcome whatever crippling effects our childhoods may have had on our lives and in the words of jesse jackson, forgive each other, redeem each other and move on.
this call for forgiveness may not result in oprah moments the world over, with thousands of children making up with their parents, but it will at least be a start, and we"ll all be so much happier as a result.
and so ladies and gentlemen, i conclude my remarks tonight with faith, joy and e_citement.
from this day forward, may a new song be heard.
let that new song be the sound of children laughing.
let that new song be the sound of children playing.
let that new song be the sound of children singing.
and let that new song be the sound of parents listening.
together, let us create a symphony of hearts, marveling at the miracle of our children and basking in the beauty of love.
let us heal the world and blight its pain.
and may we all make beautiful music together.
god bless you, and i love you.

尊敬的各位老师,亲爱的同学们:
大家上午好!今天我发言的题目是《用智慧开启智慧之门 用勤奋开辟成功之路》。
同学们,你可还记得第一次背起书包走进学校的情景?可还记得打开第一本课本、学写第一个字的喜悦与新奇?那踏进校门的一小步,却是人生的一大步。人生的探索之旅由此启航,我们以智慧为帆,勤奋作浆,开始驶向 那无比浩瀚的知识海洋!
我们的学校,是知识的宝库,是文化的走廊,是师生的乐府,更是人才的摇篮。同学们,在这宝库中 、走廊上 、乐府里,沐着晨光,你是否想过,今天该干些什么?踏着夕阳,你是否问过,今天有多少收获?
狄更斯说过,“我所收获的,是我种下的。”每个人都有机会成为有才能的人,就看你去不去争取这个机会。常用的钥匙最光亮,才能来自勤奋学习,历史上不是有无数人用自己的行动在证明这句话的可信吗?苏秦为了督促自己勤奋学习"头悬梁锥刺股"的故事,留下了千古学习的美名.匡衡为了学习,"凿壁偷光";车胤为了学习,"囊萤映雪";杨时为了学习,"程门立雪"等等.他们无一不是由勤奋加智慧获得了超越自身的成功。知识改变命运,真知影响人生。你是否也渴望像他们一样,以勤奋去获取知识,提高你的才能,改变你的人生?
正如郭沫若先生所说:“勤奋和智慧是开启成功大门的钥匙”。今天的我们应谨记他的话,放飞自己的青春,用勤劳的汗水铺就未来的成功之路。 也许我们已经输在起跑线上,但决不能再让自己输在终点。后天的努力可以弥补先天的不足,珍惜现在的每一刻,努力获取知识。 对于九年级的哥哥、姐姐们来说,中招考试已并不遥远,面临着人生的第一次选择,你们应该加倍努力,刻苦学习,为迎接中招考试做充足的准备;对于我们八年级学生来说,八年级是初中学习的一个转折点,我们应该好好把握,努力学习,不断提高自己;而七年级的我们也千万不要放松,我们现在的努力是在为以后的学习打下坚实的基础,只有地基打牢了,房子才会盖得更高。同学们,无论我们处在哪个学习阶段,我们都应该努力,抓住这段易逝的光阴 ,好好把握,将知识这闪光的宝石紧紧握在手中。 每一次的成功都要付出艰辛和努力,要想取得成功就必须付出代价。正如冰心所说:“成功的花儿,人们只惊羡它现时的明艳,却不知当初它的芽儿,曾浸透了战斗的泪泉,洒遍了牺牲的血雨!”的确,不经一番寒彻骨,哪得梅花扑鼻香?我们正处于学习的黄金时代,大好韶华,岂能让光阴虚度?人生能有几回拼搏?人生能有几个花季?过去的就无法改变了,所谓黑发不知勤学早,白首方悔读书迟,就是这个道理。只有勤奋求知、拼搏进取,我们才能奏响青春之歌的最强音!
同学们,只要我们树立远大理想,脚踏实地刻苦学习,不懈探索,就一定能用辛勤和汗水铸就美丽人生!让我们努力学习,从我做起,从今天做起,让勤奋的汗水浇开知识之花!让智慧之光照亮我们的心田!我们用拼搏书写一个无悔的青春!

youth will press
青春终将散场
saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems……
告别童年,我们步入了青春的步伐的另一个重要时刻,面临新的形势,处理不同的问题......
everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have e_perienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.
每个人对年轻,都有他自己的理解,这是一段美丽和奇迹,只有在你经历了酸甜苦辣,你真的能成为一个人的意义。
thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .
青春的时光是有限的,稍不注意转瞬即逝,当你发现已不再年轻时,为时已晚矣。所以我们要把握年轻,一个更加美好的时光在不久的将来等着你,否则你将失去这些。
having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!
过去的那些伟人,他们都充分利用了自己的青春时光,做一些对社会是有益的,对整个人类,作为一个时代的创造者,他们被后人的每个人所铭记。所以年轻的时候要做好自己,即使你可能做不到这些伟人的成就,但至少可以为为自己,为周围的人做点什么!
the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.
年轻就像盛开的花朵,他们是如此美丽盛开的时候,他们让人们感到满意,但随着时间的推移,岁月会让你变老.
and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.
年轻人,在我们热情年轻时候,保持你的激情,不要在激情中变老。
so we must treasure it ,don't let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.

it"s a great honor for me to stand here to deliver a speech to you. then today i want to talk something about dreams and reality.
as the famous russian litterateur lev tolstoy said, “ideal is the beacon. without ideal, there is no secure direction; without a direction, there is no life.” so there’s no doubt that everyone needs his or her own ideal. have you ever thought that what is practical and sensible will connect with our most treasured dreams? maybe, to somebody, reality has little relation to ideal. to others nothing can be done without the sense of reality. so make our dreams a part of our reality. and make our reality a part of our dreams. there is no reason why our dreams must oppose our reality. improve our dreams and our reality by bringing them together.
as a university student, establishing a dream is one of the most important things we have to do .but everyone must see the reality clearly at first. your family condition, your personal ability, your social intercourse, your subject and the job you want to do, these things show you the reality and lead you to establish a dream.
further more, difficult or otherwise, we should put the power of reality into our dreams. last but not least remember to work hard at the task of chasing our dreams. do believe that we can achieve our ideal step by step by the passage of time!
in the end, i want to share with you a poetry named " i think i can"
maybe you can not understand the meaning of the poetry , but do not be worried ,let me tell you the meaning
thank you for your listening!

good evening , ladies and gentlemen . i am joy and glad to give you a speech about stress , yes , just the topic you see on the screen.
psychologist tell us that stress is a state of worry caused by the problem of living , such as too much work or study , heavy responsibilities , and quickened pace of life .
statistics show that stress comes from every detail in our life . financial problems , poor health , being laid off may be the stress that most adults now suffering . as students in the university , we are also under our special stress . while study , having to take various tests and submit a project against a deadline may put a great pressure on us . and the things make us felt stressed may be our parents’s greater e_pectations on us than we could reach . later , when we are likely to graduate , some other problems will also annoy us . i think we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and how we can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job .
the chief problem we should face to is our atitude towards stress .people usually say they can not live in the sun e_cept they escape from stress . it’s unwelcome ! yes , however , very necessary . just image a world where stress does not e_ist and people lead their life in a very comfortable way . but is this kind of living condition as perfect as we hope ? without stress , they may feel very satisfied with the current life but lack of power to discover new things . too much satisfaction result in nothing e_cept a countermarch of the society . no stress , no development . so a certain amount of stress is good . it can stimulate us and increase our level of alertness .
and our answer to stress is another vital problem . how to do with ourselves when stress suddenly break into our life ? to wave the white flag and admit our unability , to give up to our ideality , or worstly , just to suicide as to put an end to everything … of cause not . the principle is to tackle with stress gentlely and harmoniously. we should try our best to release ourselves . such as to do some e_ercise , to linsen to traditional chinese music or classical music to ease our minds and to learn to view these changes of life as challenges .it’s no use crying over spilt milk . only to accept what has happened can solve the problem .
ok , i think i was under large stress 3 minutes before , but now i am here and have finished my speech . here is the last thing i want to add to my topic ,face to it and overcome it ,stress is also a piece of cake.

励志成功的英语演讲稿
dear all,
e_perience makes you succeedi still remembered the first time when i became a technical secondary school teacher of english literature. it seemed that it happened yesterday.
at that day, i got quite ready and i had the confidence to be a good teacher. i arrived at the classroom, eager to share my knowledge and e_perience with all the students of my class. having prepared for two days, i had no doubt to hold their attention and to impress on them my admiration for the literature.
“stand up!” the monitor spoke loudly. the entire class stood up as i entered the classroom. i was a little puzzled, but quickly that awkwardness was over, i regained my calmness and began my well-prepared lecture, sure to gain their respect--- or even their admiration. ‘i’m your english, miss jiang. today we are going to learn . . . ’ i was very pleased with work . as the bell rang, i went back to my office full of a sense of achievement. the following day when i read my students’ diaries, the rosy glow was gradually replaced by a strong sense of sadness. the first diary said, “our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today. perhaps her ne_t lecture would be better.” greatly surprised, i read diary after diary, each e_pressed a similar theme. “didn’t i teach them anything? i described the entire framework and laid the background for the passage we would study in class,” i puzzled. “how should they say i taught them nothing?”
it was a long term, and it gradually became clear that my ideas about education weren’t the same as those of my students. i thought a teacher’s job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so that students could draw their own conclusions. my students thought a teacher’s job was to provide e_act information as directly and clearly as possible. what a difference! i tell myself i can handle it.’ compared to what others have been through , i’m fortunate. thinking of these sentences i felt something important struck me. i believe my life would not be that bad and it was proved to be true. later during my life and work i always told myself ‘i can handle it.’ when my own goals seemed far off or when my problems seemed too overwhelming. and every time i said it, i always came back to my senses.
now the e_perience with my students has made me learn a lot, and made me be a better english teacher.
the following year, it was september 10th. i went to class as well. when i stepped into the class, i felt surprised. there was a post card on the table, but i didn’t show it on my face. i began teaching lessons. after the class, i walked out of the class with a card in my hand. i opened the card in the office, it was a music card with words on it. it said ‘many thanks to you, miss jiang. we all love you we like your teaching.’ i was impressed by the words. how honest and simple the words were. hot tears couldn’t help dropping. at that time, i was so proud of being an english teacher.
so here, coming to us are words that can give us strength. whatever you’re going through, tell yourself you can handle it. tell this to yourself over and over, and it will help you get through the rough spots with little more fortitude.

success is everyone wants, whether it was or the cause of education. give people the joy of success.
how can we succeed? the great inventor thomas edison said, genius is 99 percent on 1 percent of the hard work and inspiration. success must be hard work. if you sleep, is unlikely to succeed.
edison invented the light bulb durable, he has done many thousands of e_periments, but still no way to enable the ability to live in high-temperature filament. ne_t to it was said: "bah! can not find even a. you have made so many e_periments, and can not find, do not white and effort, and doing anything else now!" he said: "i must ability to find a live high-temperature materials, he must find out. "work pays off, he finally invented a durable light bulb, so that the well-being of people around the world to be known as the 20th century, one of the greatest inventions.
we need to learn the spirit of his, if he was not unremitting efforts, it is impossible to invent the light bulb durability, we can see the need for the conditions of success, as long as required to meet the conditions for success, success easy.
seize the opportunity is one of the conditions for success. for e_ample it! bill gates, the world"s richest university, a keen awareness of the emerging computer industry in this huge business opportunities, he dropped out from harvard university, and with their friends opened a computer company called microsoft, when his friends friends are opposed to what he has done, but bill gates said, time will prove that i am right to do so. now, computers in all walks of life in a wide range of applications, to the people"s work and life have brought tremendous changes, microsoft has become the world"s largest software one.
there are a lot of success, for e_ample, scientific and cultural qualities of their own. without a good basic knowledge, even though hard work and a heaven-sent opportunity to succeed or not. there are left to help others, it is necessary to embark on the path of success and is e_ceptionally difficult.
to be successful, needs to be done and opportunities.

ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions: 1、do you know what is youth?
2、how do you master your youth? youth
youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life . youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often e_ists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust . whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s ne_t and the joy of the game of living . in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are 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 young at 80. thank you!

we are the world ,we are the future
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.
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often e_ists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old by deserting our ideals. years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being „s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what‟s ne_t and the joy of the game of living . in the center of your heart and my heart there‟s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
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.”

这篇信息是关于:某人在屋檐下躲雨,看见观音正撑伞走过。这人说:"观音菩萨,普度一下众生吧,带我一段如何?"观音说:"我在雨里,你在檐下,而檐下无雨,你不需要我度。"这人立刻跳出檐下,站在雨中:"现在我也在雨中了,该度我了吧?"观音说:"你在雨中,我也在雨中,我不被淋,因为有伞;你被雨淋,因为无伞。所以不是我度自己,而是伞度我。你要想度,不必找我,请自找伞去!"说完便走了。第二天,这人遇到了难事,便去寺庙里求观音。走进庙里,才发现观音的像前也有一个人在拜,那个人长得和观音一模一样,丝毫不差。这人问:"你是观音吗?"那人答道:"我正是观音。"这人又问:"那你为何还拜自己?"观音笑道:"我也遇到了难事,但我知道,求人不如求己。"
"自己救自己"。总结下来

we are the world ,we are the future
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."

youth will press
saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems……
everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have e_perienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.
thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .
having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!
the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.
and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.
so we must treasure it ,don"t let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.

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?s a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new decisions, 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. you can feel your face is getting red, your heart is beating fast, and your blood is rushing all over your body, to every single corner of your being!
you know all this is real as long as you are confident, passionate and committed! and you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!
you will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial e_pressions, using your body in new ways, approaching new people, and asking new questions.
you will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take.
you will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. you will never succumb to challenges of hardships.
you will never waver in your pursuit of e_cellence. after all, you are the best, and you deserve the best!
as your coach and friend, i can assure you the door to all the best things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your hand. you must do your part. you must faithfully follow the plans you make and take the actions you plan; you must never quit and you must never fear. i know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed! now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get e_cited, and yell it out:
i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed! i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed! i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed!
ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i?m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is "youth". i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions: 1、 do you know what is youth? 2、 how do you master your youth? youth
youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often e_istsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s ne_t and the joy of the game of living . in the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are 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 young at 80.
thank you!

first, i would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? happiness, wisdom, a body or something else. if i had asked this question to president ni_on, 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 2015 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-e_ercising 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 e_ample, more and more people will get to know china. i’m sure the mysterious chinese culture will attract them ly. 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, 2015 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.
