经典英语演讲稿1

　　Good afternoon，ladies and gentlemen！

　　I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech！ my topic is Opportunities and Challenges.

　　First， I would like to know， what does your destiny offer you？ Happiness， wisdom， a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon， he would probably had said，”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair， but the chalice of opportunity.”

　　Needless to say， one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the Olympic Games. Till now， we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen？ New roads， new subway lines， public—exercising equipments with beautiful colors， large blocks of grass fields， and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.

　　Other than those， there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example， more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment， for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more， Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances， could you even imagine us losing the holding rights？

　　I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question， ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you？”

　　Hello， everybody！ Thank you. Thank you. Thank you， everybody. All right， everybody go ahead and have a seat. How is everybody doing today？（Applause.） How about Tim Spicer？（Applause.） I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington， Virginia. And we’ve got students tuning in from all across America， from kindergarten through 12th grade. And I am just so glad that all could join us today. And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host. Give yourselves a big round of applause. （Applause.）I know that for many of you， today is the first day of school. And for those of you in kindergarten， or starting middle or high school， it’s your first day in a new school， so it’s understandable if you’re a little nervous. I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now —— （applause） —— with just one more year to go. And no matter what grade you’re in， some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling. When I was young， my family lived overseas. I lived in Indonesia for a few years. And my mother， she didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school， but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself， Monday through Friday. But because she had to go to work， the only time she could do it was at 4：30 in the morning.Now， as you might imagine， I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early. And a lot of times， I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I’d complain， my mother would just give me one of those looks and she’d say， “This is no picnic for me either， buster.” （Laughter.）So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school. But I’m here today because I have something important to discuss with you. I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year.But at the end of the day， we can have the most dedicated teachers， the most supportive parents， the best schools in the world —— and none of it will make a difference， none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities， unless you show up to those schools， unless you pay attention to those teachers， unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed. That’s what I want to focus on today： the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself. Every single one of you has something that you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide.

　　Learn How to Say No

　　We've all been taught that we should help people. It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. It may even win us favors in return. However， we must be realistic. We can't say yes to every request. If we did， we would fail or go crazy for sure. Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. In this case， we must know how to say no politely.

　　When we need to say no， here is one method we can try. First， we should tell the truth. If we really can't do something， we should just say so. Second， we should remember to refuse requests politely. We must communicate clearly， but must also be sincere and sympathetic. A true friend will understand. Finally， we must not feel guilty about saying no. Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. It can save ourselves， and them， a lot of trouble. In short， we cannot please everyone all the time. Refusing favors is a part of life.

　　大家好，我今天演讲的题目是“我的梦想”。

　　每个人都有梦想，而且很好，我也不例外。我有一个小小的梦想，当我达到目标时，我会实现更多的梦想。开始，我还是个婴儿，一心想变得很强壮，像少林寺里的孩子一样，武功高强。但是我觉得离开父母去很远的地方练武，辛苦，有点舍不得。小时候，我有一个梦想，我希望我有钱。大人问：小姑娘，有了钱你打算怎么办？我要去买泡泡糖"如果你有很多钱？

　　我打算买很多泡泡糖。"如果你有钱花的话？我会买泡泡糖工厂。"天真的.童年我们的确有一颗善良的心，幸福和快乐是同一首曲子。

　　慢慢进入小学，课程越来越深，知识越来越多。会感受到压力。现在我有一个梦想。我希望我没有；我每天没有很多作业要做。玩的有点剥夺，而我们40%的日子都禁锢在教室里，很多时间都在学习。但是在学习面前，是一种模糊的知识。俗话说，一种罕见的困惑。对事物的理解，从封建主义到资本主义，越大越觉得自己的观点是正确的。每天放学回家后忙了一天一夜的课，他又困又累，吃不到深夜吃的食物。这样的生活很单调，可能有时候会想念我的很多小学同学，有时候会带着一节课或者一副朦胧的睡相。讨厌死板的校服，我从来不到处穿。周六，周日；时间很短，孩子很想磨炼，慢慢了解生活；太难了，努力吧，梦想好了，我会努力让每个人都生活起来，早起晚睡，把握住自己，不再松懈。我也想为他们的梦想而奋斗。

　　我的演讲结束了，谢谢！

　　President pitzer Mr. Vice President， Governor， Congressman Thomas， Senator Wiley， and Congressman Miller， Mr. Webb， Mr. Bell， scientists， distinguished guests， and ladies and gentlemen：

　　I appreciate your president having made me an honorary visiting professor， and I will assure you that my first lecture will be very brief.

　　I am delighted to be here and I'm particularly delighted to be here on this occasion.

　　We meet at a college noted for knowledge， in a city noted for progress， in a state noted for strength， and we stand in need of all three， for we meet in an hour of change and challenge， in a decade of hope and fear， in an age of both knowledge and ignorance. The greater our knowledge increases， the greater our ignorance unfolds.

　　Despite the striking fact that most of the scientists that the world has ever known are alive and working today， despite the fact that this Nation's own scientific manpower is doubling every 12 years in a rate of growth more than three times that of our population as a whole， despite that， the vast stretches of the unknown and the unanswered and the unfinished still far outstrip our collective comprehension.

　　No man can fully grasp how far and how fast we have come， but condense， if you will， the 50，000 years of man's recorded history in a time span of but a half—century. Stated in these terms， we know very little about the first 40 years， except at the end of them advanced man had learned to use the skins of animals to cover them. Then about 10 years ago， under this standard， man emerged from his caves to construct other kinds of shelter. Only five years ago man learned to write and use a cart with wheels. Christianity began less than two years ago. The printing press came this year， and then less than two months ago， during this whole 50—year span of human history， the steam engine provided a new source of power. Newton explored the meaning of gravity. Last month electric lights and telephones and automobiles and airplanes became available. Only last week did we develop penicillin and television and nuclear power， and now if America's new spacecraft succeeds in reaching Venus， we will have literally reached the stars before midnight tonight.

　　This is a breathtaking pace， and such a pace cannot help but create new ills as it dispels old， new ignorance， new problems， new dangers. Surely the opening vistas of space promise high costs and hardships， as well as high reward.

　　So it is not surprising that some would have us stay where we are a little longer to rest， to wait. But this city of Houston， this state of Texas， this country of the United States was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them. This country was conquered by those who moved forward——and so will space.

　　William Bradford， speaking in 1630 of the founding of the Plymouth Bay Colony， said that all great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties， and both must be enterprised and overcome with answerable courage.

　　If this capsule history of our progress teaches us anything， it is that man， in his quest for knowledge and progress， is determined and cannot be deterred. The exploration of space will go ahead， whether we join in it or not， and it is one of the great adventures of all time， and no nation which expects to be the leader of other nations can expect to stay behind in this race for space.

　　Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution， the first waves of modern invention， and the first wave of nuclear power， and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be a part of it——we mean to lead it. For the eyes of the world now look into space， to the moon and to the planets beyond， and we have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest， but by a banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons of mass destruction， but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.

　　Yet the vows of this Nation can only be fulfilled if we in this Nation are first， and， therefore， we intend to be first. In short， our leadership in science and industry， our hopes for peace and security， our obligations to ourselves as well as others， all require us to make this effort， to solve these mysteries， to solve them for the good of all men， and to become the world's leading space—faring nation.

　　We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained， and new rights to be won， and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science， like nuclear science and all technology， has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man， and only if the United States occupies a position of pre—eminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war. I do not say that we should or will go unprotected against the hostile misuse of space any more than we go unprotected against the hostile use of land or sea， but I do say that space can be explored and mastered without feeding the fires of war， without repeating the mistakes that man has made in extending his writ around this globe of ours.

　　There is no strife， no prejudice， no national conflict in outer space as yet. Its hazards are hostile to us all. Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind， and its opportunity for peaceful cooperation many never come again. But why， some say， the moon？ Why choose this as our goal？ And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain？ Why， 35 years ago， fly the Atlantic？ Why does Rice play Texas？

　　We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things， not because they are easy， but because they are hard， because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills， because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept， one we are unwilling to postpone， and one which we intend to win， and the others， too.

　　It is for these reasons that I regard the decision last year to shift our efforts in space from low to high gear as among the most important decisions that will be made during my incumbency in the office of the Presidency.

　　In the last 24 hours we have seen facilities now being created for the greatest and most complex exploration in man's history. We have felt the ground shake and the air shattered by the testing of a Saturn C—1 booster rocket， many times as powerful as the Atlas which launched John Glenn， generating power equivalent to 10，000 automobiles with their accelerators on the floor. We have seen the site where five F—1 rocket engines， each one as powerful as all eight engines of the Saturn combined， will be clustered together to make the advanced Saturn missile， assembled in a new building to be built at Cape Canaveral as tall as a 48 story structure， as wide as a city block， and as long as two lengths of this field.

　　Within these last 19 months at least 45 satellites have circled the earth. Some 40 of them were made in the United States of America and they were far more sophisticated and supplied far more knowledge to the people of the world than those of the Soviet Union.

　　The Mariner spacecraft now on its way to Venus is the most intricate instrument in the history of space science. The accuracy of that shot is comparable to firing a missile from Cape Canaveral and dropping it in this stadium between the 40—yard lines.

　　Transit satellites are helping our ships at sea to steer a safer course. Tiros satellites have given us unprecedented warnings of hurricanes and storms， and will do the same for forest fires and icebergs.

　　We have had our failures， but so have others， even if they do not admit them. And they may be less public.

　　To be sure， we are behind， and will be behind for some time in manned flight. But we do not intend to stay behind， and in this decade， we shall make up and move ahead.

　　The growth of our science and education will be enriched by new knowledge of our universe and environment， by new techniques of learning and mapping and observation， by new tools and computers for industry， medicine， the home as well as the school. Technical institutions， such as Rice， will reap the harvest of these gains.

　　And finally， the space effort itself， while still in its infancy， has already created a great number of new companies， and tens of thousands of new jobs. Space and related industries are generating new demands in investment and skilled personnel， and this city and this state， and this region， will share greatly in this growth. What was once the furthest outpost on the old frontier of the West will be the furthest outpost on the new frontier of science and space. Houston， your city of Houston， with its Manned Spacecraft Center， will become the heart of a large scientific and engineering community. During the next 5 years the National Aeronautics and Space Administration expects to double the number of scientists and engineers in this area， to increase its outlays for salaries and expenses to $60 million a year； to invest some $200 million in plant and laboratory facilities； and to direct or contract for new space efforts over $1 billion from this center in this city.

　　To be sure， all this costs us all a good deal of money. This year's space budget is three times what it was in January 1961， and it is greater than the space budget of the previous eight years combined. That budget now stands at $5，400 million a year——a staggering sum， though somewhat less than we pay for cigarettes and cigars every year. Space expenditures will soon rise some more， from 40 cents per person per week to more than 50 cents a week for every man， woman and child in the United States， for we have given this program a high national priority——even though I realize that this is in some measure an act of faith and vision， for we do not now know what benefits await us. But if I were to say， my fellow citizens， that we shall send to the moon， 240，000 miles away from the control station in Houston， a giant rocket more than 300 feet tall， the length of this football field， made of new metal alloys， some of which have not yet been invented， capable of standing heat and stresses several times more than have ever been experienced， fitted together with a precision better than the finest watch， carrying all the equipment needed for propulsion， guidance， control， communications， food and survival， on an untried mission， to an unknown celestial body， and then return it safely to earth， re—entering the atmosphere at speeds of over 25，000 miles per hour， causing heat about half that of the temperature of the sun——almost as hot as it is here today——and do all this， and do it right， and do it first before this decade is out——then we must be bold.

　　I'm the one who is doing all the work， so we just want you to stay cool for a minute.

　　However， I think we're going to do it， and I think that we must pay what needs to be paid. I don't think we ought to waste any money， but I think we ought to do the job. And this will be done in the decade of the Sixties. It may be done while some of you are still here at school at this college and university. It will be done during the terms of office of some of the people who sit here on this platform. But it will be done. And it will be done before the end of this decade.

　　And I am delighted that this university is playing a part in putting a man on the moon as part of a great national effort of the United States of America.

　　Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory， who was to die on Mount Everest， was asked why did he want to climb it. He said， "Because it is there."

　　Well， space is there， and we're going to climb it， and the moon and the planets are there， and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there. And， therefore， as we set sail we ask God's blessing on the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked.

　　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 freshneof 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.”

　　How well are we in tune with the rhythm of life？ In our busy day to day existence， we don’t often stop to ask ourselves this question. At least I don’t. And it wasn’t until I joined a competitive sporting event that I learned a most important lesson – we must place our mind in harmony with the natural order of things to be successful.

　　Let me tell you what happened.

　　I decided to take part in an International Marathon in my hometown last year. Being an ambitious person， I hoped to finish it within 5 hours， accompanied by my friend with whom I had trained.

　　The big day finally arrived. "Ready......set......bang" And we were off.

　　At first， we kept a rapid pace and ran nonstop. At this pace， we finished the first 20 kilometers in 2 hours and I thought running a marathon was a piece of cake. Then my running mate began to slow down. I urged him to keep running at the same pace but he said no， he wanted to conserve his energy. I felt I had partnered with the wrong person， therefore， I sprinted on and left him behind in the dust.

　　A few kilometers later， I began to understand his strategy as my pace slowed to a jog then a walk. After that I was incapable of moving another step. I was humiliated as more and more people ran passed me. More than once I thought "Maybe I should quit." I started to doubt my ability to finish this race.

　　At this moment， my running mate caught up with me and slapped me on the back. “Follow me，” he shouted. He had balanced his marathon pace and was encouraged me to do the same. For the rest of this grueling contest， we walked， jogged， ran a few miles， and walked again. Slowly， painfully but hopefully this time， we established the most suitable pace within the natural flow of our physical capabilities.

　　Eventually we accomplished our first Marathon of 42 kilometers in 4 and half hours. I asked myself， what did this marathon mean to me？ My Marathon experience became an influential metaphor for my life about how we must learn to pace ourselves in everything， by being in tune with the rhythm of life.

　　Like the tide that ebbs and flows， we must listen to advice but make our own decisions. Like the show at dawn and dusk， we must learn to balance pride and modesty. And from the way the wind can both shout and whisper， we must learn when to be strong and when to be gentle， for everything moves in its own rhythm and its own yin and yang elements. It is the interaction of these complementary extremes that produces harmony， as Laozi said， extremes meet. Since the marathon， this notion of two opposite forces working together has been my running partner， so to speak. Yin and yang exist everywhere， constantly interacting， and never existing in an absolute condition.

　　Ladies and Gentlemen， life is like running a marathon， let us discover， define and develop a natural rhythm of life， in order to achieve both harmony and success.

　　Thank you for listening.

　　every one of us， rich or poor， should at least have one or two good friends. my friends will listen to me when i want to speak， will wipe my eyes when i cry， will take care of me when i am sick， and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.

　　as students， we could share more time with our friends. the friendship in our young hearts is pure， fresh and simple. i often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends. especially when i had justin as one of my best friends. justin was my english teacher from the usa. i met him in 1996 when i was a student who could only speak very little english. justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face， and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive. he taught us english by telling stories， playing games， singing songs， and even dancing. i could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin—ished our class， we went to some other classes to sing songs for them， just like what people do in the states on christmas eve. it was so interesting and unforgettable. justin was an excellent teacher， because he taught us not only how to study english well， but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others' lives. i know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts. facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important， the real importance lay in faith， under—standing， and care. justin is the best friend i have ever had， and i know i will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory.

　　friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. it is actually like a bottle of wine， the longer it is kept， the sweeter it will be. it is also like a cup of tea. when we are thirsty， it will be our best choice， but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves， it is also the most fragrant drink.

　　however， in this fast—developing modern society， the reality is not that. more and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of life and —the beauty of friendship. they work hard in order to gain a higher position， in the society and to earn more money for their work. of course， we don't deny that it is important to find a bet—ter place in our lives， but we wish more and more people could pay a little more attention to themselves and their friends. all of us have to spare some time for personal lives. we have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. when staying with our friends， we can release ourselves completely. we can do whatever we want， we can laugh together， talk together， and even cry to—gether. i should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.

　　as we know， we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. but it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. there is a famous motto saying that “a friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding， but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” it is really true. we have to work hard together with our friends， encourage each other and help each other. when we receive love and friendship， we should repay as much as we can.

　　finally， let's pray together now that one day， all of us could find the person we want to find， and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. let's pray the flower of friendship be—tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts.

　　I believe in our future

　　Honorable Judges， fellow students：

　　Good afternoon！

　　Recently， ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege， who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds？ Will we be able to better the lives of others？ Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country？

　　The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation， which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The college students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We help each other clean the dormitory， go shopping and bargain together， and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.

　　The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades； and we neglect the need for character cultivation. But again， the cynics are wrong. We care deeply for each other， we cherish freedom， we treasure justice， and we seek truth. Last week， thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.

　　As college students， we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. We all face a fundamental choice： cynicism or faith， each will profoundly impact our future， or even the future of our country. I believe in all my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks， and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. I believe in our future.

　　What life is about

　　As we all know， the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it， tons of men have tried different ways of treating life， and some succeeded， some failed， and here are some of the tips they left us.

　　Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone， and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.

　　But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust， happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy， overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all， it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.

　　The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers； we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life， we’ve added years to life， but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.

　　And these choices are what life is about.

　　Sports 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， “I couldn’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 ever 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 tracks beside 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.

　　Independence Day 20xx Speech

　　Good morning India！

　　Today on 15th August 20xx India is celebrating its 67th Independence Day， and we Indians are proud to say we have owned our freedom 67 years old back. As we gather here today I take the opportunity to congratulate every student and teacher of this School/college a Happy Independence Day！ I also take the opportunity of welcoming you our chief guest for today！

　　We have assembled here to celebrate our 67th Independence Day. As a citizen of India， I am so proud to talk to you about my mother India. On the night of August 14， 1947， Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru rose to make a maiden speech in New Delhi， “When the world sleeps， India will wake to life and freedom.” Yes， India became free from the bondage of British rule. Now， India is the largest democratic country in the world. The country’s strength is to find， “Unity in diversity”. But， there are stray incidents that test her secularism but the people of India are ready to sacrifice anything for the cause of unity. Today we remember the great leaders who gave their lives for the nation’s freedom and prosperity. Dr. B.R.Ambedkar gave the longest written constitution to us. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru worked for an industrialized India. Gandhi Ji taught us Ahimsa and Non—violence. Subash Chandra Bose inducted courage in us. Swami Vivekanand gave us spiritual power. Yes， with these contributions； India will be the super power in the coming years. Our former President Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam called the children of India to dream to build a strong Nation with aim and perseverance. Indeed！ This is not a word of a single man. It is word of one billionsouls.

　　Jai Hind！

　　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 existsin 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 next 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！

　　A Young Idler，An Old Beggar

　　Almost everyone knows the famous Chinese saying：A young idler，an old beggar. Throughout history，we have seen many cases in which this saying has again and again proved to be true.

　　It goes without saying that the youth is the best time of life，during which one's mental and physical states are at their peaks. It takes relatively less time and pains to learn or accept new things in a world full of changes and rapid developments. In addition，one is less likely to be under great pressure from career，family and health problems when young. Therefore，a fresh mind plus enormous energy will ensure success in different aspects of life.

　　Of course，we all know：no pains，no gains. If we don't make every effort to make good use of the advantages youth brings us，it is impossible to achieve any goals. As students，we should now try our best to learn all the subjects well so that we can be well prepared for the challenges that we will face in the future.

　　How to Be Popular

　　Most people would like to be popular with others， but not everyone can achieve this goal. What is the secret to popularity？ In fact， it is very simple. The first step is to improve our appearance. We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well. When we are healthy and well—groomed， we will not only look better but also feel better. In addition， we should smile and appear friendly. After all， our facial expression is an important part of our appearance. If we can do this， people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.

　　Another important step is developing more consideration for others. We should always put others first and place their interests before our own. It's also important to be good listeners； in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us. However， no matter what we do， we must not gossip. Above all， we must remember to be ourselves， not phonies. Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect. If we can do all of the above， I am sure popularity will come our way.
