第一篇:“21世紀杯”全國英語演講比賽冠軍演講稿

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 of 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, i began 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 tears to 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.

building bridges for the future

i’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.

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, 2014, 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(推薦訪問範文網:) 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

because this time, the student won the case. very soon, a regulation about receipts on the train came out. and whatever we buy on the train now, there?s a receipt for us. outside the court, the student was asked, “how do you make it to the end?” he said, “as a law student, i root my faith in law. i believe that law is there, to protect every person with no exception, and to ensure every person has a say.”

his words spread a strong faith in law, which is not only a doctrine of a law student, but also a belief that all citizens ought to hold. it is this faith that initiates the student to resort to law for a tiny issue; it is this faith that supports him to endure all the exhausting trips when collecting evidence; it is this faith that makes a seemingly “ridiculous” receipt request legal and rightful. it is this faith that helps to change our life, enhance our judicial system and bring social justice.

to many, a receipt of 1 yuan is too small to mention, however rights are to be respected and law is to be believed in. it all starts with a tiny receipt of 1 yuan, but we get a monumental case, a new regulation and a bumper harvest in social justice. the bridge that leads a tiny start to a bumper harvest is faith, the faith in law, rightful and strong.

演講稿:what would you do if you had only one day left to live?

“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?

“i would watch television!” the first answer. “i would play with the computer!” the second one. “i would play with computer too.” the 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.

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.

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.

but i never really knew how grandma felt. she silently passed away without a word one 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.

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.

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 each other’s minds; our hearts are supposed to feel each other’s hearts — and fulfill these without any

forms of tool!

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.

this shall never happen again! the “tele”s are great inventions. but “telepathy” gives them the warmth 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.

i told my grandma’s story to those young kids that day. they 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.

thank you very much!
