英语演讲稿1
nowadays, people prefer to travel by air. this is
because air travel has some advantages. first of all, airplane, the miracle created by man, is the fastest means of transport. it takes the least time for one to travel by air from one place to another. besides, traveling by air is
convenient and comfortable. friendly air hostesses are affectionate and considerate. they look after passengers all the way to their destinations. in addition, on long distance flights there are films and music for people to entertain themselves.
as a popular saying goes, "everything has two sides." the same is true of air travel. it has some disadvantages, too. for one thing, air travel is expensive. the average chinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air fares. so they prefer to take trains, which save a lot of money. for another, although passengers are assured of their safety, they are still worried about it during the journey because flying always involves more or less risk. as for i am concerned, the advantages mentioned above exceed the disadvantages. if i were given choice between traveling by air and by train, i would certainly prefer the former, especially the long distance journey,
because time is the most important thing i have to take into consideration whatever i do.
现在，人们喜欢坐飞机去旅游。这是因为坐飞机旅游有一些优点。首先，飞机是人类发明的奇迹，是最快的交通方式。坐飞机从一个地方到另一个地方花的时间最少。此外，坐飞机旅游方便舒适。友好的空姐深情体贴。她们一路上都照顾乘客。另外，长途飞行有电影和音乐给人们自娱自乐。
正如一句流行的`话说的：“任何事物都有两面性。”航空
旅游也一样，它也有一些缺点。一方面，航空旅游费用昂贵。一般的中国人都不是很富裕，付不起昂贵的航空费用。所以他们宁愿坐火车，这样能节省很多钱。另一方面，尽管乘客们有安全保障，他们在旅途中还是会担心，因为飞行或多或少总包括一些风险。
在我看来，上述优点多于缺点。如果让我在火车和飞机之间选择,我宁愿选择前者，特别是长途旅行，因为不管我做什么，时间是我应该考虑的最重要的东西。
英语演讲稿2
A man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put his head out the window to check. As he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.
He looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman looking down.
"Is this yours?" he asked.
She said, "Yes, could you bring it up?" and the man agreed.
On arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. As she was very attractive he agreed. Shortly afterwards she said, "I'm about to have dinner. There's plenty. Would you like to join me?"
He readily accepted her offer and both enjoyed a lovely meal. As the evening was drawing to a close the lady said, "I've had a marvelous evening. Would you like to stay the night?"
The man hesitated then said, "Do you act like this with every man you meet?"
"No," she replied, "Only those who catch my eye."
People, also have a Thanksgiving heart, grateful.
With a grateful heart, just like in the journey of life lit a beacon. With a grateful heart, as to master the key to the life palace doors; With a grateful heart, like the ocean of life have a strong ship; With a grateful heart, like the birds have to adjust balance tail...
Meng jiao wrote in "the wanderer" : the loving mother hand line, wandering onto clothing. Departure thick seam, meaning fear of delay, who made the heart-inch grass, at a three chunhui. Every word words reveal the mother-child affectionate and pour out the charm of a mother's love. We are bathed in a mother's love made sunshine sucking the QiongJiangYuLou full of motherly love. Great maternal love, the father loves the versa, parents give us is of the selfless love of others.
Looking at parents that covered the years forehead, looking at that endured the backs of the rain, looking at that endure the hardship strands of white hair. Begat just the parents of grace!
人，亦有感恩之心，感激之情。
怀抱一颗感恩的心，犹如在生命的旅途中点燃了一盏明灯;怀抱一颗感恩的心，犹如掌握了人生宫殿一门门的钥匙;怀抱一颗感恩的心，犹如在人生的海洋中拥有了一艘坚固的船;怀抱一颗感恩的心，犹如鸟儿拥有了调节平衡的尾巴……
孟郊在《游子吟》中写道：慈母手中线，游子身上衣，临行密密缝，意恐迟迟归，谁言寸草心，报得三春晖。字里行间流露着母子深情，字字句句倾诉母爱之魅力。我们如今正沐浴着母爱织成的阳光吮吸着充满母爱的琼浆玉露。母爱伟大，父爱亦然，父母给予我们的`是他人所不能及的无私的爱。
看着父母那爬满岁月的额头，看着那饱尝雨露风霜的脊背，看着那饱经艰难困苦的丝丝白发。生儿才之父母恩啊!

They chose to use their platform to ensure not just that their son would be remembered, but that a new university, built in his name, would exist to benefit others.
Since the Stanfords didn’t have the opportunity to give their son the future he had envisioned, they devoted themselves to creating a university that would produce both fundamental knowledge and apply that knowledge to tackle real-world problems – but that that would also help countless other students build their own platforms and launch their own lives of purpose.
As Stanford graduates, you have built and earned your platform.
Your education and experiences here will give you opportunities to pursue your interests and follow your own unique path.
Of course, you’ve worked tremendously hard to achieve this success. And I know that it hasn’t always been easy. Each of you has had to overcome obstacles to get to where you are today.
And all of that hard work – the midnight coffee breaks; the final exams; the hours spent in the library, or the studio, or the laboratory – have brought you here today.
And you haven’t stopped there.
You’ve thrown yourself into activities and experiences here – whether sports or the arts, student government or the student newspaper, service work, sketch comedy, the Band, or…or – especially as I’ve seen in the last week – fountain hopping!
These experiences have enriched your lives, and they, too, have brought you to where you are today.

I can't even notice that the men's hands are still raised, and the women's hands are still raised, how good are we as managers of our companies and our organizations at seeing that the men are reaching for opportunitiesmore than women?" We've got to get women to sit at the number two: Make your partner a real partner. I've become convinced that we've made more progress in the workforce than we have in the home. The data shows this very clearly. If a woman and a man work full-time and have a child, the woman does twice the amount of housework the man does, and the woman does three times the amount of childcare the man does. So she's got three jobs or two jobs, and he's got one. Who do you think drops out when someone needs to be home more? The causes of this are really complicated, and I don't have time to go into them. And I don't think Sunday football-watching and general laziness is the cause.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. It’s great to be here. First of all, thanks for your coming. Tonight, what I am gonna talk about is innovation. Who can tell me what is innovation? We all know that, since 1978, China has been through the greatest changes brought by the reform and openingxxup. So what we can see from the reform and openingxxup? The power of innovation. That’s why I am here. I am here to show you my Chinese dream. I want to talk about the future and how we're going to win it. If we want to make innovation. But firstly, we should make sure that China is a place where we can make it if we try, where we can go as far as hard work and big dreams will take us. We understand that it’s not going to be a cakewalk, this competition for the future, which means all of us are going to have to do our best. We are going to have to win the future by being smarter and working harder and working together. Innovation is the spirit of our country, the motive force for our country’s prosperity.
Sparking the imagination and creativity of our people, unleashing new discoveries xxthat's what China will do better than any other country on Earth. From the moment we have a new idea, we can explore it; we can develop it with a research grant; we can protect it with a patent; we can market it with a loan to start a new business. We’ve got a chain that takes a great idea all the way through. We must be confirmed that, today, the challenges we face are real.
They are serious they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But we will somehow find a way to overcome the difficulties. My major is xx. My job is to discover or create new drugs for many diseases like cancer. You know that laboratory is the place where miracles happen. Believe it or not. What I do can save millions of people’s lives. For a long time, what challenges me is how to commercialize research. You come up with a great idea, but moving that new discovery from theory to practice or from the lab to the marketplace, that's re ally a big job. That’s what we should focus on.
We need to act with a sense of urgencyxxto study and work and create as if the fate of the country depends on usxxbecause it does. It depends on us. Thank you!

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I’m Angela zhang from class 4 grade 8. Today, my topic is, “The Shanghai world Expo”.
First, I’ll say something about world Expo History. As we know, the very first world Expo, the great Exhibition of 1851, took place in the crystal Palace in London. UK. Ever since then, the goals of world Expos have been both high-minded as well as commercial. Visitors are able to explore the world outside of their everyday experience—outside cultures, new scientific advancements, and new inventions. world Expos have excited and inspired more and more people in the world.On december3, 20xx, the Bureau of International Expositions (or call it BIE) announced that Shanghai will host Expo20xx. the BIE had received bids from five cities to host Expo20xx. Among the 5 nice cities, the BIE chose Shanghai at last! It’s really an exciting news for not only Shanghainese, but also all of chinese people. Here are some details about it.
Look at this profile carefully. The title is “The 20xx world Exposition ,Shanghai, china ”. this is the logo.
And the theme is “better city., better life”.oK, let’s guess who is the image representative? Yeah, you’re right, Yao ming!Shanghai Expo is the first comprehensive world Expo held in a developing country. And it is also the first one that takes “the city” as its theme, hoping that it can push forward the city development and help bring about a better urban living environment, just like the theme: better city, better life.
I think, as a student in Shanghai, we should learn to be a gentle person and keep good manners from now on. And try to practice English more in order to communicate with foreigners fluently in the near future. Because, we’re a part of Shanghai!

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
Good morning ladies and gentlmen,It is my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—— As you slowly open your eyes, look around, notice where the light comes into your room;listen carefully, see if there are new sounds you can recognize;feel with your body and spirit, and see if you can sense the freshness in the air. Yes, yes, yes, it’s a new day, it’s a different day, and it’s a bright day! And most importantly, it’s a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new decisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level. In your mind’s eye, you can see clearly the things you want to have, the paces you intend to go, the relationships you desire to develop, and the positions you aspire to reach. You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when everything happens as you dream. You can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic moment strikes. You can feel your face is getting red, your heart is beating fast, and your blood is rushing all over your body, to every single corner of your being! You know all this is real as long as you are confident, passionate and committed! And you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!
You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways, approaching new people, and asking new questions. You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take. You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. You will never succumb to challenges of hardships. You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence. After all, you are the best, and you deserve the best! As your coach and friend, I can assure you the door to all the best things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your hand. You must do your part. You must faithfully follow the plans you make and take the actions you plan;you must never quit and you must never fear. I know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed! Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out: I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!

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。
我们每一个人，富裕还是贫穷，至少应该有一个或两个好朋友。我的朋友们会听我的，当我想说话的时候，会抹去我的眼睛当我哭泣，会照顾我当我生病了，和我的朋友会和我一起并排通过这次旅行的生活。 作为学生，我们可以分享更多的时间与我们的朋友。友谊在我们年轻的心是纯洁的，新鲜和简单。我经常觉得很幸运，有很多好朋友。尤其是当我有贾斯汀是我最好的朋友之一。贾斯汀是我的英语老师来自美国。我见到他在1996年当我还是一个学生，只能说很少的英语。贾斯汀是一个生动的年轻人和一个灿烂的微笑在他的脸上，他总有他的特殊的方式使课堂活跃和有吸引力。他教我们英语讲故事，玩游戏，唱歌，甚至跳舞。我仍然可以记得很清楚，当我们天色已类的一个下午，我们去了一些其他类为他们唱歌，就像人们在圣诞前夕在美国做些什么。它是如此有趣和令人难忘的。贾斯汀是一个优秀的老师，因为他不仅教我们如何学好英语，而且找到的美丽世界的方式和方法的天使到别人的生活。我知道有友谊和纯洁的爱在我们心中。面对这种宝贵的情感国籍和年龄是很重要的，真正的重要性在于信仰，理解，和关心。贾斯汀是我曾经遇到的最好的朋友，我知道我将珍惜那些日子和他呆在一起的最好的我的记忆的一部分。
友谊是一种财宝在我们的生活中。它实际上是像一瓶酒，将其保存的时间越长，甜。也像一杯茶。当我们口渴时，这将是我们的最佳选择，但当我们有足够的时间玩得很开心的，也是最芳香的饮料。 然而，在这个快速发展的现代社会，现实不是。越来越多的人忘了享受生命的美丽和——美丽的友谊。他们努力工作为了获得一个更高的位置，在社会和为他们的工作赚更多的钱。当然，我们并不否认，重要的是要找到一个好地方在我们的生活中，但我们希望越来越多的人能更关注自己和他们的朋友。我们所有人必须备用一些个人生活的时间。我们必须找到机会来表达我们的`情感和爱。当住在我们的朋友，我们可以完全释放自己。我们可以做任何我们想要的，我们可以一起开怀大笑，一起交谈，甚至一起哭。我应该说在一起与我们最好的朋友是我们生活的最美妙的时刻。
我们知道，我们会感到孤独，如果我们甚至没有一个朋友。但这并不意味着我们可以依靠我们的朋友。有一个著名的格言说：“一个朋友就像一个被子棉絮，但真正的东西，使你温暖的是你自己的温度。“这是真的。我们必须努力工作和我们的朋友一起，互相鼓励，互相帮助。当我们接受爱和友谊，我们应该报答尽可能多。 最后，让我们一起祈祷，有一天，我们都能找到我们想要找到的人，并可以享受一个真正的美丽的友谊在我们的生活中。让我们之间的友谊的花朵祈祷我们的朋友和我们在我们的心总是绽放明亮。

Dear friends!
Do you still remember your first English teacher? You may say:“ Yes.” Everyone has his teachers, in my mind, I'll never forget her ------my first English teacher Ms. Li. Without her, I wouldn't be standing here. She is a young and lovely lady with beautiful eyes. Her voice sounds sweet and she speaks English very well. That was the first impression she left on us when she first gave us an English lesson.
In her class, she taught us carefully and patiently. She always made opportunities for us to speak English. She gave us many beautiful pictures to talk on them, played games with us and told us many interesting stories. Little by little, I had interest in English, but English was a new subject to me, I had many difficulties in learning it well. I often felt very confused.
It was Ms. Li who helped me to find ways to overcome my difficulties. She helped me to practice speaking English everyday. She always encouraged me whenever I lost heart. She helped me to have confidence in myself. She gave me what I needed, courage, confidence, good ways to learn English and opportunities to speak English in class. So I was grateful for her. Maybe I can't meet her again. The only thing I can give her is my best wishes. I wish my dear teacher happiness, good health and good luck. And I also want to say to her: Thank you, Ms. Li. I love you!

关于金钱英语演讲稿:钱不是万能的money is not very important, but very very important.
if there is no money, i can’t use this microphone to speak to you and we can’t have such a room to hold such a competition. without money, we can’t study in such a schoolyard. without money, we can’t live in such a hometown. without money, we can’t have such a motherland. on the other hand, if there is no money, you don’t need to bear my speech about money of us have dreams about the future, dreams of having a good job and making much money. surely someone has thought at times “if only i had a lot of money, i could be the happiest person in the world.” in fact it’s the main mistake that people make about money.
however, is money the road to happiness? not really! many people work every day, work overtime, work weekends to make a lot of money. are they happy? no. they are too busy making money. meanwhile, their personal lives, if they have any, fall apart. they have no time to form or to maintain friendship. they even lose the abilities to relax and to enjoy themselves. enjoying means taking things, taking time to see, to hear, to taste, to smell, to feel. they do not take time to do this. they say: “i’ll do it when i have enough money to retire” then they find that it is too lat
