第十一届21世纪杯英语演讲冠军曹丰演讲稿第一篇:第十一届21世纪杯英语演讲冠军曹丰演讲稿Our Future: A Battle between Dreams and RealityGood afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:When I was in the primary school, I have a dream.I want to invent a device which could bring you from one place to another in no time at all.When I was in the secondary school, my dream was to study in my ideal university.And when eventually I got into the university, my dream was to graduate.How pathetic!When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic.Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be “fulfilled”? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called “reality”? What IS the reality actually?Ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real.It is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies.Flying, for example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years.A hundred years ago, “man could not fly” was still regarded as the “reality”.Now if that was really the real ity, what did the Wright brothers do? How did some of you get to Macau? Only when we believe that the reality is not real can we soar with our dreams.People say that our future is a battle between the reality and our dreams.And if, unfortunately, Mr.Reality wins this war, then I see no future of mankind at all.AIDS will never be curable as this IS the reality;People living in the undeveloped countries will suffer from starvation forever as this IS the reality;Disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance IS the dies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands.Oh, quite a number ofyou!Actually, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task.Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished.How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear adjudicators, what do you think? C.S.Lewis once said, “You are never too old to dream a new dream.” So for our future, please dream and be unrealistic.Now that I am a university student, my goal is to graduate with excellences.But at the same time, I have a dream deeply rooted in our future.One day, people living in the areas now sweltering with the horror of wars will be able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment.One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves.One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be eliminated.One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day, our dream will defeat the reality!Thank you very much.我们的未来:梦想与现实之间的战斗下午好,女士们,先生们:当我在小学,我有一个梦想。

演讲稿:From made in China to created in China
One in four computers in the world comes from China; but from each computer produced, China earns only what 10 apples are worth. I read this in People’ Daily not long ago. While the force of globalization has spread Chinese-made products all over the world and earned China the name “world’s factory”, China earns very little profits from this kind of low-cost production. It’s even been said that China has to export 800 million shirts to get an airplane.
This transformation will be no less like a marathon, requiring much effort especially that from Chinese enterprises, the major force in Chinese economy. Though there’ s no one in front leading us which direction to run, there’s much to learn from some Chinese enterprises that have already found the right strategies and are shining on the global stage. These strategies involve brand identity establishment, technological innovation and modern management system.

Last summer, I volunteered to work as an English teacher in a primary school for children ofmigrant workers.去年夏天,我自愿在一所外地农民工子弟小学当起了一名英语教师。
To be accurate, I didn’t volunteer.I was dragged in.(literally)确切的说,我并不是自告奋勇去参加的。
我其实是被拽着参加的。
(从字面上说)When my friend first hit upon the idea of this project, I was all against it:“What? To spend myvacation standingin the heat,当我的朋友首次提出参加这个计划时我是完全反对的:“什么?让我整个暑假冒着酷暑,Yelling at a bunch of nine-year-olds who couldn’t even speak pro per Mandarin Chinese? And besides, there`s no payfor my toil.No, I am definitely not going.”对着一帮9岁大的小孩大声嚷嚷,他们甚者连普通话都说不标准。
而且我的辛苦工作是无偿服务。
21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿(优秀9篇)
21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿(优秀9篇)世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿篇一Knowing the Consequences of ChoiceOver the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute. Right before I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channels we had already had. In prime time at night, they all had interesting shows. Therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and I-had to argue over what to watch. Finally, we agreed that we should watch the most interesting programme... If wecould agree what that was.However, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had TV, there were only one or two channels available. The increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.Fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one colour. Today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.Fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers. Today, we read English newspapers like the China Daily and the 21st Century, as well as various Chinese newspapers.Fifteen years ago, English majors took only courses in language and literature. Today, we also study Western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.The emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in China#39;s history; an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the Chinese nation. We enjoy the abundance of choice. But this has not come easily.About 150 years ago, China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats. It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. The policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.Like others of my age, I#39;m too young to have experienced the time when the Chinese people had no right to choose. However, as the next century draws near, it is time to ask: What does choice really mean to us young people?Is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? Is choice an empty promise that never materializes? Or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?First, I would like to say: To choose means to claim opportunities.I am a third-year English major. An important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. I can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. I can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. Actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in China.Indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. I would love to work in such big cities as Beijing or Shanghai or Shenzhen. I would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. I would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced. I would also love to put down roots in central and western China, which is underdeveloped, but holds great potential.All of these sound good. But they are only possibilities. To those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, I would like to say: To choose means to accept challenge. To us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition. In the next century,competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins.With increasing international exchanges, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world. This is calling for a higher level of our personal development.Fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage. But today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone.Given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination.As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.Nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life. But it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions.Economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health.To those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, I would like to say, To choose means to take responsibility. When we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: It#39;s just my own business. As policy makers of the next century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us.The traditional Chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family. To me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programmes. Rather, it is the whole of the human family. As I am making my choices, I will not forget the smile of my teacher when I correctly spelled out the word China for the first time, I will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of Jiangxi Province. I will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in Bosnia, Chechnya and Somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty. All these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family. At different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective. Now as I am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it can lead a peaceful and prosperous life.选择的重要性去年春节期间,我陷入过一场家庭纷争。

21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿(精选16篇)
21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿(精选16篇)21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿篇1A Scene to RememberGood afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:Today I would like to begin with a story. There was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a census about mountain gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of poaching and being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we've ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddled their babies.Yes, that's a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Diana Fossey, who spent most of her lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our eco-environment.Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland ofprosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur - natural scenes aren't natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges are devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.All these appalling facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been eroding our resources. Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the United Nations has made 20xx the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the world's attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.Now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations are receiving donations - big notes, small notes or even coins - from housewives, plumbers, ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and invalids. Some of them cannot afford to send the money but they do. These are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals, who are suffering from ecological damage in their neighborhood. Why? Because they care. Because they still want their Mother Nature back. Because they know it still belongs to them.This kind of feeling that I have, ladies and gentlemen, is when it feels like it, smells like it, and looks like it , it's all coming from a scene to be remembered, a scene to recall and to cherish.The other night, as I saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs.I found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to something else, someplace else, a place remembered, a placeuntouched, a field of grass where no one seemed to have been except the deer.And all those unforgettable scenes strengthened the feeling that it's time for us to do something, for our own and our coming generation.Once again, I have come to think of Mrs. Diana Fossey because it is with her spirit, passion, courage and strong sense of our ecoenvironment that we are taking our next step into the world.And no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our minds, there's always a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it.Thank you very much.21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛稿篇2Sports are more than competitions. To me, they mean growth under the care of others. I learned this the hard way.I used to be very shy and often felt lonely. Although I did well in all the academic subjects, I was afraid of physical education. My classmates often laughed at me.“Look at that girl,” they said. “Her feet don’t leave the ground when she runs!”Their words embarrassed me. Moreover, whenever the teacher organized some competitive games, no one in the class liked to have me as their partner or team member. As a result, I often ended up looking at others enjoy their games.Things would go on like that if not for a sports meet in my high school. By mistake, my name was put on the list of those who would compete in the women’s 1500 meters race. By the time people found the mistake, it was too late to change.My desk-mate was a natural athlete. She said to me, “Icouldn’t run that race in your place, because I’ve signed up for three items already.” Other athletic girls of the class said the same.I was utterly dumbfounded. 1500 meters! Running against the best runners from other classes! And in front of students of the entire school! It would be the worst nightmare I’d ev er have!“You still have time to catch up because there is still one month before the sports meet,” they all said this to me, including my teacher.My desk-mate patted me on the shoulder, “Cool! You will run for our class! And we will do training together.” Yes, this is not just for myself, but for my class too, I said to myself. But still, 1500 meters to me was like Mount Everest to a beginning climber.I had no idea even how to start my preparation.Fortunately, my desk-mate gave me a hand. Every afternoon after class, several of us ran together. When the fear of being laughed at struck me, I saw others running right beside me. They gave me strengths. While we were running, some others would stand by the tracks cheering for us.One month certainly couldn’t make me a good runner. But when I was standing behind the start line, I no longer felt lonely or afraid. I saw my classmates standing by the tracks waving at me as if about to run beside me.With the shot of the starting gun, I dashed out and ran as fast as I could, as if it were a 200-meter race. Soon I was out of breath and slowed down. Other runners passed me one by one, and gradually I had no idea how many of them were still behind me. My legs were getting heavier and heavier, and I might fall down at any moment. However, I suddenly heard my classmates chanting my name. My desk-mate even ran along the tracksbeside me and cheered for me at the same time, just like the month-long training we did together.As expected, I was almost the last to cross the finish line. Immediately, my classmates held my arms and urged me to walk on my feet and not to sit down. I was surrounded, with all kinds of drinks handed to me. I felt a kind of warmth I had never felt before. Even though I was almost the last to finish the race, I was full of confidence that I would improve in the future.That sports meet was an unforgettable experience. The memory of my classmates cheering for me, holding my arms and handing me drinks stays fresh on my mind. Sports are no longer about winning or losing. They give me a lot of confidence, both confidence in my fellow students and confidence in my own potential. I am no longer lonely, no longer afraid. Sports have brought me close to my classmates and helped us grow together.Now, I participate in the sports meet every year. Even if I am not competing, I would help my classmates with their practice, just like the way my desk-mate and others ran with me.体育比赛越来越多。

21世纪杯学生比赛英语演讲稿范文(精选17篇)21世纪杯学生比赛英语篇1Me and my FearsHonorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:It is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful Saturday morning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the English language.About a year and a half ago, I took part in my very first English Speech Contest. When I stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me, I could hardly speak. I stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling in vain for the right thing to say. My fears had paralyzed me.While my passion for English has never changed, I lost my courage to speak in public. When my professor again encouraged me to take part in this Competition, I said “no.” I couldn’t endure yet another painful experience. He looked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. I will never forget his words. “Look,” he said, “We all have our fears, and you have yours. You could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraid to ever play again. Running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. A winner is not one who never fails,but one who never quits.”I spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. Then I made the bravest and wisest decision of my life: I would face my fears – and take part in the competition!As it turned out, my dear old professor was right. Now, here I am, once again standing before a microphone. My heart is beating fast, and my mouth is dry, but most importantly, I havefaced my fears -- and that makes all the difference!Thank you.战胜恐惧尊敬的评委,各位来宾,女士们先生们,我很荣幸在这个美妙的星期六早上来到这里,与你们分享我生命中一段特别的经历。

21世纪杯英语风采比赛获奖者演讲稿篇1ChangeLeo Tolstoy once said, everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.He is right. We always have great plans and dreams in our minds…too ready to achieve something grand that changes the world or benefits all of mankind .For example; we hate pollution and have made up our minds to find new energy sources that keep the environment clean. Yet we still litter on the ground. We complain about traffic jams, so we plan to build more highways to solve the problem, but it never occurs to us that our failure to follow traffic regulations is the leading cause of this situation. We are so concerned that the violence in the media has a bad impact on our children, we urge the government to set laws to protect them. But, do we, as adults, set a good example for our kids? We use nasty words and even spit on the ground in front of them, I dare to say, we harm more!In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we had betterchange ourselves first. As ordinary individuals, we do not have the power to change the world. But we can change our habit of littering, spitting, cussing, we can respect the environment around us, we must act as good models for our kids.If each of us does all of these little things, all of us, millions and millions of individuals together, together we will be strong …strong enough to change our world!So please, the next time you do something, think how your actions influence not only you, but those around you too, especially our children …and perhaps more importantly…our planet!改变列夫·托尔斯泰曾说过:每个人都想改变这个世界,但是没有人想到改变自己。

“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿
“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿正文第一篇:“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿facing this audience on the stage, i have the exciting feeling of participating in the march of history, for what we are facing today is more than a mere competition or contest. it is an assembly of some o f china’s most talented and motivated people, representatives of a younger generation that are preparing themselves for the coming of a new century.i’m grateful that i’ve been given this opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well.though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still represents, i believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past 15 years.in my elementary years, there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons.the teacher asked me to help her, and it was obvious that she expected a lot from me. but as a young boy, restless, thoughtless, i always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself.one day before the final exam, she came up to me and said, “could you please explain this to me? i want very much to do better this time. “ i started explaining, and finished in a hurry. pretending not to notice her still confused eyes, i ran off quickly. nat surprisingly, she again did very badly in the exam. and two months later, at the beginning of the new semester, word came of her death of blood cancer. no one ever knew about the little task i failed to fulfill, but i couldn’t forgive myself. i simply couldn’t forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, “why didn’t you do a little more to help me, when it was so easy for you? why didn’t you understand a little better the trust placed in you, so that i would not have to leave this world in such pain and regret?“i was about eight or nine years old at that time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for i began to understand the word “responsibility“ and to learn to always do my duties faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance which are the very foundation of human society.later in my life, i continued to experience many failures. but never again did i feel that regret which struck me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that i have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best i can.as i grew up, changed and improved by this incident and many other similar ones, ibegan to perceive the changes taking place around me and to find that society, in a way, was in its formative years like myself. new buildings, new commodities and new fashions appear every day.new ideas, new information, new technologies. people can talk with each other from any corner of the earth in a matter of seconds. society is becoming more competitive. words like individuality and creativity are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and efforts. such is the era in which this generation ,grows and matures.such is the era in which this generation will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it. yet in the meantime, many problems still exist.we learn that crimes take place in broad daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting. we hear that there are still about 1 million children in this country who can’t even afford to go to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on dinner parties and luxury cars.we buy shoddy medicines, or merely worthless junk in the name of medicines, that aggravate, rather than alleviate our diseases since money, many people believe, is the most important thing in the world that must be made, even at the expense of morality and responsibility.such an era, therefore, determines that we are a generation with a keener sense of competition and efficiency and a greater readiness to think critically and act creatively.such an era, furthermore, demands, that we are a generation with a clear perception of our historical responsibility and an aggressive will to take action and solve the problems. history has long been preparing these qualities in this generation and it is now calling us forward to give testimony to our patriotism and heroism towards this nation and all humanity.standing here now, i think of the past 15 years of my life as an ordinary student. probably i’ll be an ordinary man for the rest of my life. but this doesn’t discourage me any, for i know that with my sense of responsibility and devoted efforts to always strive, for the best, it’s going to be a meaningful and worthwhile life that i will be living.standing here now, i think of the past 15 years of this nation, which has achieved greatness that inspired millions of people of my age, most of whom will not attain fame or prestige and only a few of whom will be remembered by posterity. but that doesn’t discourage us any, because we know that the world watches, the world listens, the world is waiting to see where this nation will be heading in a time of rich opportunities and fierce competition.i can’t ever forget that little girl in my class who couldn’t had the same opportunities as any of us here to enjoy a wonderful life today and a hopeful world tomorrow.it is the sacred responsibility of this generation to face up to the challenges of the new century and to devote our sweat and blood, our wisdom and passion, to the historic cause of making this nation a greater and happier land for every one of us.we are not going to evade that responsibility. we are going to let people down. and people, far and near, will hear of us. frost will be brought to their backbones and tearsto their eyes when our stories are told and retold, so let us go forth, my fellow members of this luckily chosen generation, and meet the new century in victory and glory.第二篇:第十届“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿building bridges for the futurei’m studying in a city that’s famous for its walls. people who visit my city are amazed at the imposing sight of its walls, especially when silhouetted against the setting sun with gold, shining streaks. the old, cracked bricks are covered with lichens and the walls are weather-beaten guards standing still for centuries.our ancestors liked to build walls. they built walls in beijing, xi’an, nanjing and many other cities, and they built the great wall, which snakes across half our country. they built walls to protect against enemies and evil spirits. this tradition has survived to this day: we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public.for a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world to me.my perceptions, however, changed after i made a hiking trip to the eastern suburbs of my city. my classmates and i were walking with some foreign students. as we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by tall trees, which formed a wide canopy above our heads. suddenly one foreign student asked me, “where is the entrance to the eastern suburbs?”“we’re already in the eastern suburbs,” i replied. he seemed taken aback, “i thought you chinese had walls for everything.” his remark set off a heated debate. at one point, he likened our walled cities to “jails”, while i insisted that the eastern suburbs were one of the many places in china that had no walls.that debate had no winners, but i did learn a lot from this student. for instance, he told me that some major universities like oxford and cambridge were not surrounded by walls. i have to admit that we do have many walls in china, and as we develop our country, we must look carefully at them and decide whether they are physical or intangible. we will keep some walls but tear down those that impede our development.let me give another example.a year ago, when i was working on a term paper, i needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library. however, the librarian coldly rejected my request to borrow it, saying, “you can’t borrow this book, you’re not a student here.” in the end, i had to spend 200 yuan to buy a copy. meanwhile, the copy in the law school gathered dust on the shelf.at the beginning of this semester, i heard that my university had started to think of unifying its libraries and linking them to libraries at other universities, so my experience wouldn’t be repeated. barriers would be replaced by bridges. an inter-library loan system would give us access to books from any library. with globalization and china integrated into the world, i believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.i know that globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. but one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to china’s tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their role in the modern world.and how about the ancient walls of mine and other cities? should we tear them down? definitely not. my city, like beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls. these walls attract historians, archaeologists, and many schoolchildren who are trying to study our history and cultural heritage. walls have become bridges to our past and to the rest of the world. if the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great changes in the role of their walls. they are now bridges that link east and west, south and north, and all countries of the world. our cultural heritage will survive globalization.第三篇:第16届21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿第16届21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲稿许吉如:清华大学have you ever bought any food on the train? and do you ask for the receipt after buying it? nowadays, all trains in china provide its passengers with receipts for commodities, but 7 years ago, things were quite different.on 13th of october, 20XX, the train t109 from beijing to shanghai was speeding on the railway. a graduate student bought a sausage at 1 yuan on the train, then asked for a receipt.“are you kidding? it?s just one yuan!” the crew member was surprised.the student, however, answered in a determined voice, “i paid the money, so i deserve the receipt.”“but we never(推荐访问:) give receipts on the train.? as a result, his further request was turned down by a cold shoulder.several days later, the student sued the national railway ministry, for not providing receipts forpassengers.to his dismay, the court turned down the case for lack of evidence. but he, who majored in law at that time, believed law as a most powerful weapon, so he did not give up. instead, he began his journey of collecting first-hand evidence by taking trains and buying commodities aboard. when his classmates were playing soccer, he was taking the train; when his classmates were buying food at mcdonald?s, he was buying food on the train; when his classmates were asking girls out, he was asking for the receipts. as he joked, ?i was either taking the train or on the way to take the train.? one month later, he appeared in the court again, with newly-collected evidence and a stronger confidence. and i guess, ladies and gentlemen, you will all cheer for the result。
2024年联想杯全国中小学生演讲稿
2024年联想杯全国中小学生演讲稿尊敬的评委、各位家长、亲爱的同学们:大家好!我是来自XX学校的XX,今天很荣幸站在这里,与大家分享我的演讲稿。
首先,我要感谢联想杯全国中小学生演讲比赛为我们提供了一个展示自己才华的平台。
今天,我想与大家分享的主题是“未来的梦想与挑战”。
回顾过去,我们会发现,人类的进步离不开科技的发展。
正是科技的不断突破和创新,才推动了社会进步的大步并成就了今天的世界。
然而,科技发展的速度也带来了许多挑战,而我们作为中小学生,更要思考的是,未来带来的机遇和挑战。
首先,让我们来谈谈未来的机遇。
科技的不断进步,给我们带来了更多的机会去追逐我们的梦想。
比如,人工智能的发展带来了更多的智能设备和智能应用,我们可以通过这些工具更高效地学习和工作;网络的普及让我们能够与世界各地的人交流,了解更多不同的文化和观点;无人机、虚拟现实等技术的应用,也为我们创造了更多的娱乐和体验的机会。
同时,科技的进步也带来了一些挑战。
首先是人际关系的改变。
现代科技的发展,使得人们在现实生活中的互动减少,更多依赖于虚拟的社交关系。
这对于我们中小学生来说,尤为重要。
我们要重视与人的沟通和交流,要保持真诚与关心。
其次是信息的过载。
如今,我们可以通过互联网随时随地地获取到大量的信息,但是如何从中筛选出有用的信息并消化吸收,是我们需要面对的挑战。
再次是科技对环境的影响。
随着科技进步,我们可以享受到更多的便利,但是也给地球带来了更多的压力,例如电子垃圾的产生、能源的消耗等。
我们要意识到环保的重要性,并为保护地球做出自己的努力。
面对未来的机遇和挑战,我们应该如何应对呢?首先,我们要掌握科技的正确使用方法。
科技是为人类服务的,而不是取代人类。
我们要学会科学使用和管理科技,避免过度沉迷于虚拟世界。
其次,我们要培养自己的综合能力。
未来的社会需要的是全面发展的人才,我们要努力提高自己的综合素质,注重思维能力、创新能力和团队协作能力的培养。
联想杯全国中小学生演讲稿
联想杯全国中小学生演讲稿尊敬的评委们、亲爱的同学们,大家好!我很荣幸能在本次联想杯全国中小学生演讲比赛中站在这个讲台上,向大家分享我的想法和观点。
我的演讲题目是:关注青少年心理健康,打造美好未来。
随着社会的发展和竞争的加剧,青少年压力逐渐增大,心理健康问题也愈加突出。
据统计,我国中小学生心理问题已经达到了年轻人人口总数的20%以上。
如果不加以重视和引导,这些问题可能会对青少年的成长和未来造成严重损害。
而我们作为未来的中坚力量,必须认真思考如何关注和保护自己的心理健康。
以下是我个人的一些思考和建议:1.增强自信心和心理韧性尤其是在面对挫折和失败时,我们需要保持坚强的内心和乐观的态度。
我们可以多参加一些能够激发自己动力的活动或者课程,例如团队活动、文艺比赛等,逐步培养自己的领导力和团队合作能力。
同时,也可以学习一些心理调适的方法,例如呼吸训练、放松练习等,帮助自己控制情绪并对抗压力。
2.积极交流和沟通青少年往往处于一个成长和发展的阶段,此时需要更多的关注和理解。
有时候,我们可能会遇到一些困惑或者烦恼,这时候我们应该勇敢地寻求帮助和指导。
我们可以选择和父母、老师、朋友等人谈心,尝试打破沉默,释放自己的心理压力。
3.培养健康的生活方式与心理健康密不可分的还有健康的生活方式。
我们需要注重运动和锻炼身体,每天保证充足的睡眠时间和良好的饮食习惯,以此来维持一个良好的生活状态。
当然,这些只是我的一些个人感悟,而要想打造真正的美好未来,我们也需要从更广阔、更长远的角度来引导和促进青少年的心理健康成长。
政府、社会、学校和家庭都需要共同努力,为青少年提供更丰富、更专业的心理健康教育和服务,扩大心理医疗的覆盖范围,减轻心理压力诱发的不良行为和心理问题。
只有这样,我们才能真正为青少年的美好未来奠定坚实的基础。
最后,我想引用一位英国心理学家的名言:“一个人的心理强大,不是因为他没有压力,而是因为他能够管理好自己的压力。
” 我们要以积极的心态,勇于面对和解决自己的心理问题,在追求美好未来的路途中,成为更加坚强、自信和绽放光芒的自己。

从2009年21世纪联想杯全国冠军金路的稿子看写作思路What would you do if you had only one day left to live?(题目设计冲击力强,观众带着问题从演讲当中获得答案)―What would you do if you had only one day left to live?‖I asked this question to my young students when teaching English this winter. What were their answers?(个人的经历是一篇成功演讲稿必不可少的,没有,你的说服力就会有折扣,观众不是来听你解释什么是culture smart or science intelligent,他们是想听你如何用自己的经历来演绎这个题目)―I would watch television!‖ the first answer. ―I would play with the computer!‖ the second one. ―I would play with computer TOO.‖ Th e girl finished her sentence perfectly with a serious smile. Indeed how cute and innocent that smile was, but how seriously my heart was hurt. I was too frightened to listen to more answers like that.(开始对比,引出推理和解释,这个but 用的恰到好处,而且使用的修辞手法,how cute 和how seriously 平型)Ten years ago, at their age, I had a different answer: I would spend the last day of my life gazing at the face of my dear grandmother until I inscribed every detail of it onto my mind.(继续讲故事,对比的手法,different,夹带了虚拟语气,和题目相符;选择my dear grandmother更容易体现亲情,而且这是在生命的最后一天,)When grandmother was getting old and weak, my family bought her a telephone so I could save time and the trouble of traveling to her home by making phone calls instead. Later we bought her a television so she could watch modern dramas by herself. Then grandma must have been, we assumed, very contented and happy.(故事没有完成,观众仍然等结论,用by making phone calls instead来说明技术带来的人情的冷漠)But I never really knew how grandma felt. She silently passed away without a word one night. When I heard about her death, a chilling pain pierced my empty heart. The pain grew even sharper as I tried to remember in detail exactly how grandma looked and I failed completely! How could I remember? I had not visited her for ages—it seemed like a century! My memories of her dissolved into thin air and leaked away like water.(继续讲故事,谈感受,里面修辞博多:it seemed like a century(夸张)pierced my empty heart/ How could I remember?(反问)/ dissolved into thin air and leaked away like water.(比喻))Even though I have a telephone, can she hear me now?Even though I might be on television, can she see me now?Even though I have modern telecommunications, can she still communicate with me now?With all these ―tele‖s, I was powerless.(三个大排比,又是排比问句,凸现她的修辞功底,而且对于问句,她给出了答案,With all these ―tele‖s, I was powerless.)Don’t people just love the word of ―tele‖,which means far away. Indeed this is how modern technology has changed our world. But please don’t forget this other word with ―tele‖: telepathy: which refers to human beings’ inborn ability to connect to our loved ones. Our minds are supposed to read eac h other’s minds; our hearts are supposed to feel each other’s hearts — and fulfill these without any forms of tool!(这段似乎有写空洞,但是它是建立在上面个人感受的基础上的,而且用词的准确到了极致,Our minds are supposed to read each other’s minds; our hearts are supposed to feel each other’s hearts )But the moment I desperately struggled to remember grandmother’s face, the telepathy between her and me had shut down forever. With the help of modern technology, I killed our telepathy.(逐渐导入结论部分,用词恰当desperately struggled/ shut down forever/ I killed our telepathy)This shall never happen again! The ―tele‖s are great inventions. But ―telepathy‖ gives them the war mth of a human face. Let’s harness the power of television to excite our kids to develop their telepathy with nature… so that they can read the secret language of flowers. Let’s make the telephone lines provoke us to preserve our telepathy with each other, so we can connect in a warm and feeling way. Let technology keep our ―telepathy‖ ALIVE! We need to wake up and make this happen.( 继续推理演绎,最后感召句运用的惟妙惟肖/ Let technology keep our ―telepathy‖ ALIVE!)I told my grandma’s story to those young kids that day. The y got very quiet. They asked me for a second chance to answer the question. They had come to a new understanding – that very moment they had made to me and to our future together, a dear promise.(好的演讲稿件都是首尾呼应,继续讲故事,映出结论)Thank you very much!Accepting Ourselves(字数:366,演讲时间是三分钟)Honarable judges, ladies and gentlemen:There is no such thing as a smart man or an intelligent man. There are choices and actions that lead us in different directions, and it is through those choices and actions that we create our realities. Sometimes we choose or do something that takes us in the opposite direction of the reality we want for ourselves.When we do this, we feel intelligent. We might go so far as to label ourselves ―intelligent‖ when a situation like this arises. Instead of labeling ourselves, though, we simply acknowledge that we made a choice that lead us down a particular path, and then let it go, preparing for our next opportunity to choose, and act, in ways that support our best intentions.I experienced my childhood in which the words smart and intelligent were used to praise me and people around—I were smart if I did what I were told. This kind of discipline undermines my ability to find own moral center and to trust my own inner self.If we were raised this way, we may find our feeling shockwaves of intelligent when we do something we were taught was intelligent, even if now we don’t agree that it’s intelligent. Conversely, I may feel smart when I do what I learned was right. Notice how this puts me in something of a straitjacket. An important part of me requires that I grow beyond what I learned and take responsibility for my own liberation in my own terms.Ladies and gentlemen: we are human beings with every right to be here, learning and exploring. To label ourselves smart or intelligent is to think too small. What we are is a decision-maker and every moment provides us with the opportunity to move in the direction of higher self or in the direction of stagnation or degradation. In the end, only we ourselves know the difference.If you find yourself going into self-judgment, try to stop yourself as soon as you can and comeback to center. Know that you are not smart or intelligent, you are simply you. Thank You.。
