英语比赛演讲稿(3篇)

英语比赛演讲稿1

  My grandpa was among the first group of English teachers sent to Australia by the Chinese government in the 1980s, when our country first opened its door. Off the plane, a hospitable Australian taxi driver asked him, “Where are you going today?” “Where to die?” My grandpa was shocked. With very limited access to authentic English, he had no idea of the Australian pronunciation for the word “today”.

  My mom was much luckier in the 1990s when she went to college. She had recorded tapes of BBC and VOA news to listen to. When she stepped on the soil of England, she was much more confident. The first day after arrival, hungry and tired after a long flight, and with a Chinese stomach longing for hot food and drink, her only wish was to have a big breakfast. The British waitress approached her asked with a British accent completely comprehensible to her well trained ear, “Madam, would you like a Continental breakfast or an English breakfast?” Well, the European continent is much bigger than England, so must be the breakfast. She responded: “Continental Breakfast, please.” The waitress took the order and Mom was very satisfied about herself until she discovered the tiny breakfast of cold milk and iced juice, instead of fried bacon and also fried sausages.

  I went to an American university for a summer program last year. After watching a movie, I decided to take a bus back to my apartment. However the bus didn’t arrive as scheduled. After waiting for about 20 minutes in the darkness, I was very uneasy and also scared. I stood there, staring into the direction which the bus should come from. But there was no bus but a street singer singing some unknown songs with his noisy guitar. The wind brought a feeling of chill, and as more and more stores closed and fewer and fewer people passed by, I couldn’t help shivering in the cold darkness. Suddenly, a piece of familiar music flowed into my ear. It was the best-known Chinese folk song: the Jasmine Flower! He was playing the Jasmine Flower with his guitar. Automatically, I tuned my Chinese ears to the familiar and nostalgic melody, with my heart warmed and my eyes wet. He played that music again and again until the bus came and I went aboard .

  From strangeness, misunderstanding to cross cultural resonance, it takes three generations. The driving force behind the change is globalization, which offers opportunities for cultures to meet, to break down barriers between countries, and to bring peoples together. When the Chinese folk song played by an American street singer got me through coldness and fear, I also came to realize that intimate connection brought about by globalization and also cross cultural resonance can also help the world get through difficulties and disputes.

  Ladies and gentlemen, if you would ask me whether globalization is enough, I will definitely say “no”. Globalization is a powerful force available to us, enabling people to communicate, to help, and to warm, just like what the American street singer did to me at that cold and dark night.

  When I was still a freshman in college, one Scottish professor complained to me about being overcharged at a grocery store. He explained that many business owners in China would assume that white “foreigners” are rich and unable to understand Chinese. My amiable professor, unwilling to start a conflict, would always pay the undue price even though he was only meagerly paid by my university and was able to speak perfect Mandarin.

  As a student of humanities, I’m particularly intrigued by the ramifications of cross-cultural encounters entailed by the new era. We have to bear in mind that whenever we talk about the new era, there is always an old era that keeps haunting us in various ways. Last year I went to the University of Tokyo for a one-year exchange program. Before I left, my grandma seemed quite distraught and apprehensive: she told me to take care of myself as if I was about to go to the battlefield.

  But we Chinese are not the only ones infested by outdated misconceptions. When I was bidding farewell to my American professor at an academic writing class in Japan, she stopped me and asked me, “Are you really from China?” At first I thought she was pointing at my handsomeness, asking me whether I had been to Korea for plastic surgery. Well, clearly this is another stereotype that we should get rid of. But to my disappointment, she was actually referring to my English skills. “I’ve never met any Chinese student who can talk and write like you do,” She said, “You must have been stayed in the States for some time, haven’t you?” It does seem that even a specialist in linguistics can’t escape the illusion built up by the last generation of Chinese students: gauche and diffident, unable to articulate themselves in English.

  Nevertheless, such stereotypes are becoming a thing of the past. When professors around the globe meet with an increasing number of students from China with both language proficiency and academic competence, well-qualified students will no longer be a surprise. Moreover, with more people going abroad and enjoying firsthand encounters with different cultures, people like my grandma will no longer be subject to the fossilized, antiquated narrative of the past. The interesting thing is, after I told my grandma my experiences in Japan, how clean, safe and beautiful their cities are and how nice, polite and considerate their people are, she gladly removed Japan from the list of least-want-to-visit foreign countries and put it instead to the most-want-to-visit one.

  Even the shop owner near my campus is now repenting for his peccadillo. When gradually more international purchasers become his patrons, he would no longer treat them differently. And he would even occasionally call out for them, yelling “come, come,” “cheap, cheap,” “thanks thanks” with a very strong Chinese accent. Meanwhile, my Scottish professor has now equipped himself with Wechat and Alipay, assimilating seamlessly into the local life here.

  The old era is like a cocoon, protecting us from possible dangers outside and providing us with warmth and comfort. However, an overreliance on memories and experiences of a long-gone past can also hinder us from genuine, meaningful interactions for the future, just as the cocoon can also serve as a wall to bar us from the beautiful world outside. But in order to make a brand-new attire or to build a modern silk road, we have to plunge the cocoons into hot water and obtain the silk despite the pain. So ladies and gentlemen, don’t be trapped by the old era. Transcend it, and embrace the new one.

  Thank you.

尊敬的各位老师、同学们:

  大家早上好!

  我的名字叫xxx,今年12岁了。这一次,我获得了“全国中小学生英语口语大赛”一等奖,感到非常辛运,在这里,我要感谢我的父母,是他们给我创造了安静的环境让我更好的练习口语;感谢我所在的三义里小学,是这所学校给我了这次参赛的机会;感谢我的班主任程老师,是她精心指导我怎样说英语;感谢我们办的全班同学,是他们一直在支持我,鼓励我。谢谢你们!

  我从英语是全班最差的同学,变成了一个获得过“全国中小学生英语口语大赛”一等奖的英语小天才,我无数次的不想再坚持练下去,我用自己与同学们玩的时间,在练字。我是多么希望像别的同学一样,快活的玩着。我就像一个还没有完全学会走路的小孩,一路走的磕磕绊绊,可是,我用自己的毅力克服了自己,慢慢的我去认真地走好每一步,最终我是成功的,我是快乐的!

  此时此刻我捧着手中的奖,心里感慨万千。虽然并不多,但我想这每一个奖的背后都是各位同学日夜苦战,用自己的勤奋努力和老师家长们的付出换来的。我不想说我们累,更不想说我们苦。因为我们是青春、潇洒的90后,风雨过后我们依然会展露笑容,今日的累是为了我们明日的`辉煌,为了我们肩上那不可推卸的历史重任。我相信我们会做的更好。

  不过,获得了奖并不意味着就达到了我们的目标而可以停滞不前。在人生旅途中,获奖只是一种助推器,而不是最根本的动力器。我们要如何前进?答案就掌握在我们自己的手中。所以,奖并不是我们最终的目标,而是我们前进路途中的一股动力。我们应正确看待这种奖励和荣誉。不能因为一时取得好的成绩而骄傲,也不能因为成绩一时不理想而气馁。学习就如逆水行舟,不进则退。只有不断地努力,不骄不躁,认真对待学习,不轻言放弃,看淡得失。以一颗平常心,踏实勤奋。才能取得更优异的成绩,才能创造更美好的未来。当然,没有获得奖的同学更不能放弃。要努力起来,哪怕最终没有成功,最起码自己努力了,也无愧于心。

  作为一名学生,面对获奖,我除了些许的紧张和好奇,更多的是一份坦然,我们相信努力就会成功。在此,我也想送上我衷心的祝福,希望你们能放飞自己的理想,创出更美的辉煌。谢谢大家!

  谢谢大家!
