I Love English
Good morning everyone:
I am Qu Jierui. I'm from Class Two Grade Six. It's my pleasuer to stand here to talk about English with you.
I love English. English language is now used everywhere in the world. Learning English makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
When I was five, my mother sent me to a kindergarten. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons. At recess, I often go to English corner to talking with teachers and classmates, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit
Washington Monument, because the president Washington is my idol. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy. I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and my hometown—Zouping
As everyone knows, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that if I study hard, I can speak English very well in the future. And I am sure that I will realize my dream one day!
That's all .Thank you for your attention.
The superstar in my heart is Kobe Bryant. He is one of the best basketball players in NBA. Recently, in 20__ NBA ALL STAR, he and O’neal both became the “MVP”. I think he is the best basketball player in NBA. He is also very handsome. I like Kobe’s basketball style, and I also learn a lot of basketball skills from Kobe. It may help me with my basketball skills more wonderful . Kobe, my superstar.
Jay Chou is the superstar in my heart. It is because he is a clever man who can not only sing but also create the songs. His voice sounds beautiful enough for me to rela_ my body. I can learn a lot things from him. For e_ample, I should get along with my parents like him. It is important to be a good son. So I love Jay Chou.
Avril Lavigne is the superstar in my heart. She’ one of the most popular singers in the world. I’m just a person who likes her very much. I first saw her on TV while she was singing. Her voice deeply attracted me. From the internet I know that She went to America from Canada by herself at si_teen. No sooner, she became a famous singer .I learn that nothing is impossible if you have a great dream from her story.
In my heart, I always think that my mum is my superstar.Although she is not very beautiful, I still love her very much.I learn a lot of things from her.She often sitted behind me when I was doing my homework.She collectes me from school everyday.While she got angry with me ,I kne w that I made mum sad.I love her because she is my only star.I always try my best to make her happy.It’s my job.I believe it!

Kobe plays basketball hard all the time in order to win the matches. L can learn his hard-working and his helpful. L love Kobe forever.
David Beckham is the superstar in my heart. He is thirty-four now. He is a gentleman who was born in London. Almost everyone in Britain knows him. He is a football player who plays football in England. Although he is famous, he is still hard-working . He is famous for his beautiful wife and football skills. But he is never proud of these. He works as hard as other football players. This is the reason I love him. I think I should learn this spirit from him,and be hard-woring at anytime.
We're going to go on a dive to the deep sea， and anyone that's had that lovely opportunity knows that for about two and half hours on the way down， it's a perfectly positively pitch—black world。 And we used to see the most mysterious animals out the windowthat you couldn't describe： these blinking lights —— a world of bioluminescence， like fireflies。 Dr。 Edith Widder —— she's now at the Ocean Research and Conservation Association —— was able to come up with a camera that could capture some of these incredible animals， and that's what you're seeing here on the screen。
好了，我们即将潜入海底深处。 任何一个有过这种美妙机会的人都知道 在这两个半小时的下降过程中， 是一个完全漆黑的世界。 我们透过窗户会看见世界上各种最神秘的动物， 各种无法形容的动物。这些闪亮着的光， 完美地构成了如萤火虫般发光的世界。 研究保护协会的Edith Witter博士 发明了一种照相机， 这种照相机可以拍下这些令人难以置信的生物。 这就是你现在在屏幕上看到的。
That's all bioluminescence。 So， like I said： just like fireflies。 There's a flying turkey under a tree。 （Laughter） I'm a geologist by training。 But I love that。 And you see， some of the bioluminescence they use to avoid being eaten， some they use to attract prey， but all of it， from an artistic point of view， is positively amazing。 And a lot of what goes on inside 。。。 there's a fish with glowing eyes， pulsating eyes。 Some of the colors are designed to hypnotize， these lovely patterns。 And then this last one， one of my favorites， this pinwheel design。 Just absolutely amazing， every single dive。
他们全部都是生物发光体。像我说的，就像萤火虫一样。 这是个会飞的火鸡，在树下。（笑声） 我知道我现在像是个实习期的地质学家，不过我就是喜欢。 你可以看到这些生物发出的光， 有些是为了避免被吃掉。 有些又是为引诱食物上钩。 尽管如此，用艺术的角度来看，这些都如此神奇。 再来看看这里发生了些什么—— 这条鱼有着会发光，闪烁的眼睛。 有些颜色则可以催眠。 多么有趣的图案。这是最后一个： 也是我的最爱，像转轮一样的设计。 每一次潜水都充满着惊喜。
That's the unknown world， and today we've only explored about 3 percent of what's out there in the ocean。 Already we've found the world's highest mountains， the world's deepest valleys， underwater lakes， underwater waterfalls —— a lot of that we shared with you from the stage。 And in a place where we thought no life at all， we find more life， we think， and diversity and density than the tropical rainforest， which tells us that we don't know much about this planet at all。 There's still 97 percent， and either that 97 percent is empty or just full of surprises。
这正是一个未知的世界。到今天为止，我们只探索了其中的极小部分， 大约只占了所有海洋的3%。 到现在，我们已经发现了世界上最高的山峰， 最深的峡谷， 水下湖，水下瀑布， 还有我们刚才看到的。 然而，恰是我们曾经以为根本不可能有生命的地方， 我们发现了众多的生物，还有它们的密度和多样性， 都超过了热带雨林。这告诉我们 我们实际上对自己的星球还不甚了解。 还有剩下的97%，那里要不就是一片荒芜，要不就是充满惊喜。
But I want to jump up to shallow water now and look at some creatures that are positively amazing。Cephalopods —— head—foots。 As a kid I knew them as calamari， mostly。 （Laughter） This is an octopus —— this is the work of Dr。 Roger Hanlon at the Marine Biological Lab —— and it's just fascinating how cephalopods can， with their incredible eyes， sense their surroundings， look at light， look at patterns。 Here's an octopus moving across the reef， finds a spot to settle down， curls up and then disappears into the background。 Tough thing to do。
不过我现在还是想说说浅水里的世界， 来看看那些神奇的生物。 头足类动物，有头有角。小时候我把他们当作是枪乌贼。 这是一条章鱼。 这是来自Roger Hanlon博士，海洋生物实验室的成果。 这些头足类动物真令人着迷， 它用它们的眼睛，它们那难以置信的眼睛来观察周围的环境， 看光，看图案。 这有只章鱼正在穿过礁石。 找到一个位置，停下来，卷起，然后马上消失在背景之中。 这很难做到。
In the next bit， we're going to see a couple squid。 These are squid。 Now males， when they fight， if they're really aggressive， they turn white。 And these two males are fighting， they do it by bouncing their butts together， which is an interesting concept。 Now， here's a male on the left and a female on the right， and the male has managed to split his coloration so the female only always sees the kinder gentler squid in him。 And the male 。。。 （Laughter） We're going to see it again。 Let's take a look at it again。 Watch the coloration： white on the right， brown on the left。 He takes a step back —— so he's keeping off the other males by splitting his body —— and comes up on the other side 。。。 Bingo！ Now I'm told that's not just a squid phenomenon with males， but I don't know。 （Laughter）
接下来，再来一起看一对鱿鱼。 这就是鱿鱼。当雄性鱿鱼搏斗时， 如果它们想要显示出自己的侵略性，它们就变为白色了。 这有两条雄鱿鱼在搏斗。 它们用撞屁股的方式来搏斗， 真是挺有意思的方法。这里有一条雄性在左边， 雌性在右边。 看，这条雄性能有办法利用颜色把自己分为两半， 所以雌性只能看到它温顺，优雅的一边， 雄性—— （笑声）再来看一次。 让我们再看一次。注意它的颜色： 白色在右边，棕色在左边。 它后退一步，让其它的雄性无法靠近 来到另外一边，并且马上转换颜色。 瞧！以前有人告诉我 这个雄性特征不仅仅是在鱿鱼身上，不过我也不太确定。 （掌声）
My dream is to have robots.In 2345, there are many robots in the world. Every family has more than one robot. Everyone can make different robot, its popular in the world.
I have three robots, the first one is from my friend, the second one is from my parents, and the third one is from my classmate.
The first robot is Peg. It has a square face, its body is a big circle, and it has a small mouth. It can run very fast, it can jump very high, it can swim slowly, and it can fly with me! It likes eating some milk for breakfast, some noodles for lunch and some porridge for dinner. Look! Peg is riding a bicycle. Its learning about balance. Be careful, Peg!
The second robot is Jack. It has a round face, two small eyes and a big mouth. It can dance very well, it can play the piano quite well, and it can skate well. Jack likes making friends with people, animals, trees and flowers, even air. Listen! Jack is playing the piano! Oh, thats very good. Everyone likes it.
The last one is Dick. Its the cutest than Peg and Jack. It can teach me how to live, and it can help me play, relax and learn new things!
The robots can teach me many things, they can make me happy, they are fun, I like it!
We Are The World ,We Are The Future
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 freshness of 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.”
世界是我们的，未来是我们的
一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，因为它提醒了我，我们能够创造我们想要的未来。
我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子，我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差，有很多草籽，收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种，什么收获也没有。
我们是年轻的。“怎样度过青春?”这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它，我首先要问“从青春这个词中你能理解到什么?”青春不是人生的一个时期，而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流.
一位诗人说“从一粒沙看世界，从一朵花看天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒在一刹那里收藏”。几天前，我有了一个听讲座的机会，从中我学到了很多东西。现在，我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手，我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱，事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短，那你们的呢?我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的`，让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿?我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿?告诉我!是的，它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。
我们所有人都希望未来能比过去更美好，但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣，微笑吧，为你的曾经拥有。从过去来看，生活是艰苦的，但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择感觉，但是我们能选择和它相关的东西。失败并不意味着你不拥有成功，它只意味着你应该用另一种方式去做这件事。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，只意味着你应该更加努力。
正如我在前面所说的“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”过去的已经过去，无论我们无力改变，但是未来却在我们前方。相信“我们给了世界什么，世界也将给我们”。并且从今天起，让我们一起做我们自己的主人，一起大声说出“世界是我们的，未来是我们的。”
Courage is very important. Everyone needs it. We will meet manydifficulties in our life and sometimes we will fail, but we can’t lose courage.If we lose courage, we can’t do anything, because we don’t dare to do anything;we are afraid of failure. This is my Chinese teacher me in the first class. Iagree with him. For example, we don’t have the courage to hands up to say ouranswer, how can we know we are right or wrong. I will remember his wordforever,” never lose courage .”
good morning teachers and fellow students. today we would like to introduce a few favorite books to you.
my favorite book is (italian: cuore). this is a diary written by an italian boy enrico. the diary is about his life and study. it included various touching stories that happened around enrico, the mottos taught by his parents, as well as the wonderful ten "monthly" stories told by his teacher during the class. every word in the chapter describes the word "love". from patriotism to friendship, and to the love between parents and child -- really touching.
this novel taught me how to love, and how to learn from love. i really like this book very much. how about you? what is your favorite book?
my favorite book is . have you read it before?
我最近读了一本书，名叫《宝葫芦的秘密》，这本书的主人公名叫王葆，和我一样，他也是一名小学生，他天真烂漫，喜欢幻想，爱出风头，又知错能改，正直。他想拥有一个宝葫芦，帮他做各种各样的事情，没想到有一天梦想成真了——在他钓鱼的时候，一次偶然的机会，使他得到了宝葫芦。
这个宝葫芦能帮王葆完成任何事情，例如：变好吃的，帮他完成手工，帮他变出满屋子的'花草，甚至是在考试的时候帮他调换试卷……虽然宝葫芦给了他一种“特殊的幸福”，但是麻烦却接二连三地找上门来，使得他在亲人、朋友面前出丑、尴尬，最后他知道那些东西都是别人的，这使他非常气愤，想扔掉宝葫芦，可是却怎么也摆脱不了宝葫芦。最后还好王葆只是做了一场梦，在这场梦之后，他受到了极大的教育。
通过读这本书，我觉得无论做什么事情，也一定不要抱有不劳而获的心思，如果有不劳而获的心思，终将会让人变得懒惰、迟钝。以后在我们做事情的时候，一定要积极动脑、动手，勤学好问，做一个聪明而勤奋的人。
Dear teachers and students：
Good morning / afternoon / evening! My name is Liu zi yuan. The title of myspeech is the relationship between creativity and imagination.
尊敬的老师、同学们大家早上/下午/晚上好!我叫刘子源。我演讲的题目是创造力和想象力之间的关系。
There is no creativity without imagination. With the development of thesociety, creativity becomes more and more important. People could not satisfywith ordinary life. So we need creativity to meet their requirements. We can seesignificance of the creativity from an example. The smart phone—iphone spreadall over the world. That was the creativity of The Apple Inc. It is obvious thatit will produce a bigger profit than common manufacturing. But, hao can weacquire creativity?
没有想象力就没有创造力。随着社会的发展，创造力变得越来越重要。人们已经不能满足于日常生活。所以我们需要不断的创新来满足他们的需求。通过一个例子我们可以知道创造力的意义。苹果智能手机的使用遍及全世界。这就是苹果公司的创新。很显然，这项创新产生了巨大的利润比起普通的制造业。但是我们怎样才能获得创造力?
I think the creativity roots in imagination. Albert Einstein said thatimagination is important than knowledge. Because we should creative a thing thatis never appeared, we need to image. Use all the things and information aroundus to think and then go to achieve it. Without the imagination of the Wrightbrothers , human could not complete the flying dreams. Without the imaginationof the Alexander Graham Bell, we could not hear the voice from a distance. Ifthe creativity can make the human progress, imagination will be the road tosuccess. Where the imagination come from? Knowledge ? Experience ? practice? Iconsider that all of them are indispensable. It is often said that knowledge ispower. So we should empower ourselves with knowledge. After that we need toobtain experience form. practice. These are the basis, and we must strengthenthem to extend our imagination.
我认为创造力扎根于想象力。爱因斯坦曾经说过，想象力远远比知识更重要。因为我们要创造一个事物，以前从没有出现过的，因此我们需要想象。利用我们周围所有的事物以及信息去想象，然后去完成它。没有莱特兄弟的想象力，人类就不能实现飞天的梦想;没有贝尔的想象力，我们就不能听到来自远方的声音。如果说创造力可以使人进步，那么想象力就是通向成功的道路。想象力来自哪里?知识?经验?还是实践?我觉得所有这些都是必不可少的。俗语有云：知识就是力量。所以我们首先应该用知识武装自己，然后我们需要从实践中获得经验。这些都是基础，我们必须用它们来扩展我们的思维。
As contemporary college students, we must shoulder the responsibility ofthe future of our motherland. What we need is not only the knowledge of thepast, but also is the innovation of a new field. Our thought can not be bound bythe old things. We should understand that an excellent nation is always full ofcreativity. So we must promote our imagination. There is no creativity withoutimagination. That’s all, thank you!
作为一个当代的大学生，我们需要肩负起祖国的未来。我不仅需要旧的知识，而且更要创新新的知识领域。我们的思想不能被旧知识所束缚。我们应该知道，一个优秀的民族永远是一个具有创新性的民族，所以我们必须提升我们的想象力。因为没有想象力就没有创造力。演讲完毕，谢谢大家!
good evening ,ladies and gentlemen:
thank you very much for choosing to come in such a cold night.today my topic is about choice and process.a research shows that a man has to make 73 choices one day.with so many choices one day, people easily get so confused and afraid of making wrong choice that they hesitate and finally miss the true part of life. in my opinion, the following part is of much more importance than the choice. there is no absolute right or wrong choice but wonderful or boring life, which the process makes the difference.
life is a box of chocolate,you never know what you will get. forrest gump made no decision by and for himself but he accomplished great success with his strong will in the process. the process is not the road itself but the attitudes and feelings ,the caution, courage and persistance we have as we encounter new experience and unexpected obstacles. take myself as an example, i changed my major when i became a postgraduate. after the choice,days have been harsh for me.i cannot understand the new lessons at all. for they are closely related to mathmatics which i learned nothing about before. however wuth the belief that this is the great chance for me to experience new ideas and challenge myself,i persisted. i asked for help from every channel and reorgonized my life. gradually i could understand some parts and even found maths interesting.moreover, i learned to act instead of complaining. in retrospect,the choice left no trace in my mind but the happiness and bitterness of the past four months becomes an unforgetable experience in my life.
no matter what the choice is, enjoy the process. in the process, your potential will be inspired and new discoveries,improvement and progress will come to you. these are the most beautiful sceneries and only on the way can you see it.these make your life colorful.
there is no need and i donnot want to judge whether it right or wrong for me to be here,but i congratulate to myself for i gain and enjoy this fantastic experience. so my dear friends,never worry about your choice and enjoy the process. i am sure you will get something new and intersting tonight after you chose to come here. thank you!
Hi, everyone. As we all know,many great inventions have brought greatchanges to our life. I think we students can also invent something.
大家好!我们都知道,许多伟大的发明给我们的生活带来了巨大的变化。我认为我们学生也可以发明一些东西。
Today I'm glad to be here to talk about what I'd like to invent - a chairthat's good for students' health. It will be made of wood. There will be twosensors in it -- one on the seat, and the other on the back of the chair. Whenthe student doesn't sit straight, the chair will remind him .If he sits on thechair for over one hour ,it will make a noise. It won't stop until the studentstands up and leaves.
今天我很高兴到这里来谈论我想发明——一把椅子,对学生的健康有好处。这将是用木头做的。将会有两个传感器，一个在椅子上，另一个在椅子后背。当学生不坐直,椅子会提醒他。如果他坐在椅子上超过一个小时,这将发出噪音。它不会停止,直到学生站起来,离开了。
It will be a useful invention, won't it ?
这将是一个有用的发明,不是吗?
Thank you!
谢谢大家!

Ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions:
1、do you know what is youth?
2、how do you master your 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 exists in 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 .
Miss Hou is my high school English teacher. Her English name is Jenny. She looks so weak that a strong wind may blow her away. She is not too tall, about 150cm. She is experiened of English teaching. She teaches me for three the other word, she is the only English teacher during my high school study. She is special.
She will show an English song to us before her class. A few days later, she will ask us to follow the singing on the tape. I can still remember some songs she taught us.
It is strang that she looks so weak, but no one in my class will against her word. I think maybe is because her own yone respects her. She is serious in work, so that our whole class’s English is good. Happily, she is our friend after class. She always palys badminton with us.
She is also ready to help us if we have any difficultiy. In my mind, a good teacher is more than a million books. And she will be my mentor forever. Jenny, my teacher, I love you.

I think lots of students like the pop singer named Jay. I also like him very much. When he released his first album, I started to buy his album. And I never miss any album of his. Do you know as a boy, Jay was called Dull Stupid.
But his mother Yeh Huimei, noticed that the quiet, shy boy seemed to dance practically when he heard the Western Pop music she used to play. His mother sent him to a piano school when he was four. When he has grown up, he had developed an ability for instant playing beyond his years. I learned to play the piano from 7 years old to 13 years old. I often feel bored when I practise playing the piano.
But Jay was always crazy about playing the piano. I think he really likes music. So I admire him very much, and I call him hero. I admire Jay. The real reason is when the others all denied him, he never gave up. He tried his best to change his life. I think it is good for everybody. I hope that everyone can learn from him---try their best to do everything. Then I think we will make the grade.
in our daily lives, we have many choices to make, such as what to eat for supper,what clothes to wear, or what to do on weekends. at certain times in our lives, we need to make even more critical choices, such as which school to attend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. yes, life is a matter of choice. seemimgly, it means a choice of tangible things. but in essence, it means choosing a way of life. life is to be lived, savored, and enjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.
hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the grave threat from the life-and-death disease--sars. yet, even during those dreadful times, some afflicted people remained optimistic. instead of wearing neutral white masks, some people turned to colouful ones, and thus display a happy mood. and some creative people dubbed sars to mean "smile and remain smiling." i was deeply touched by their optimisim, nearly forgetting that we're still in a battle. people who survive these kinds of circumstances, (at some point)decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the overwhelming odds.
laid-off workers, typically regarded as the victims of economic advancement, are subject to desperation that being unmeployed has brought on them. but, encouragingly, we have witnessed some of them striving hard to rebuild confidence toward life and discover new opportunities for demonstrating their values.
although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities, we do have the privilege to choose to live optimistcally,to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.
every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day. as for me, i choose to be cheerful.
日常生活中,我们会面临各种各样的选择,像是晚餐吃什么,穿什么或是如何度周末。而在人生中的特定阶段,我们需要做出更多关键性的抉择,例如教育,职业或者人生伴侣。生活就意味着一种选择。这种选择看似是对具体事物的判断,但归根究底,是一种生活方式的选择。任何无味的抱怨和虚度光阴只会带来乏味,生活的美需要细心品尝,用心体会。
如今回想起那段笼罩在sars阴影下的日子依然心有余悸。但即便在那样令人沮丧的日子里,备受折磨的人们也始终保持着乐观。为传递一种欢快的情绪,大家换上了色彩缤纷的口罩。而那些富有创造力的人则把sars解释为"笑口常开"。他们对待生活的乐观态度深深打动了我,几乎让我忘记我们还身处在没有硝烟的战场。其实,正是坚持不懈,坚忍不拔的精神引领人们走出了逆境。
被看做经济发展牺牲品的广大下岗职工在面对生存压力时,特别容易陷入绝望当中。但别人欣慰的是,我们看到越来越多的这个群体中的成员重建了对生活的信心,并重新立足于社会以实现自己的价值。
尽管容貌和天资都是上苍给予,而人生旅途中的坎坷与荆棘我们也无法预计,那就让我们热爱生命,拥有梦想,珍惜希望吧。
每日清晨梦醒,我们都被赋予了选择生活的权利。而我会让一切从愉快开始。
When I was seven, I started learning English. I played games and sang English songs with other children. Sometimes, I watched English cartoons. It's funny. Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington, because my cousin is over there. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge University, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. Also I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, and the gardens in Suzhou. I will teaching people of the world about the beautiful language of our country.
I like the English language. To learn English is wonderful. I once wanted to be an English teacher . I also like Chinese literature. When I was really young, I was able to remember lots of poems. I also wanted to be a teacher of Chinese. Now I think that both of my dreams can come true: I will be able to use English to teach foreign friends Chinese and share Chinese culture with them. So that more and more people will be able to get to know the 5000 years' history culture, and the prosperity of our great China.
My future is not a dream. I am confident that it will come true.
As we all know,smoking is not only bad for our health,but also bad for our society.therefore,our govrenment has publish an ban about forbid people smoke at the public place form 20xx.1.1,including the indoor pulic placces,indoor public workplaces and pulic transport means.this ban will first come into power in the medical system.
In order to make this ban come into power,we should do what we can to reduce the behavior of smoke around us.we can put up some posteres at public places to aware people this is no-somking place.Perhaps the most important ,and most easyist thing that we can do is we won't be a smoker.
It has a long and hard way to forbid somke,but I believe that if everyone follw this ban and take a googd care of their behavior,we will have a clear sky soon.
the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.
they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and ma-ki-ng it our own.
i love beijing and hennan opera because it always reminds me of who i am. but i am also a fan of pop music, especially english songs. so i have combined eastern melody with western language. it is called western henna opera.
when two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other. when this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the(customs of another culture. then there are certain things some people may not like. to this, i will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it. to learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge. before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures. at present, they may run in different courses. but eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.
right now, i can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow! thank you!
让我们共同感受东西方的融合
吉卜林说过:东方是东方，西方是西方，二者永不相聚。但是一个世纪后的今天，东西方相汇了! 它们相聚在经济领域，它们相聚在教育领域，它们相聚在艺术的殿堂。有人争论说：这种融合需要我们在东方和西方之间做出选择，但我却坚信最美好的未来在于东方和西方创造性的融合。我们可以将西方的思想，观念和技术变为我们自己所用的东西。
我喜爱京剧和河南豫剧，因为它们经常使我想起自己是谁。但我也热衷于流行音乐，特别是英文歌曲。于是我将东方的旋律和西方的语言结合到了一起，它叫做西方版的河南豫剧。
当两种文化相结合的时候，也许一方的文化中的.某些东西不适应另一方的传统文化。当此种情况出现时，我们需要试着理解并接受另一种文化中的风俗习惯。然而，也许有些东西你并不喜欢，对于此，我可以说，如果你不喜欢它，请试着去容忍它。当两种文化融合的时候，试着去容忍你个人不喜欢的东西是一种美德。
My fellow and my friends；
Once I read a piece of news report. It says， ＂A middle school student in a remote mountainous area was doing his revision at home one day. His brother， whose age excelled school age， was playing and drawing on the paper with his elder brother＇s pencil at his side. Suddenly the younger brother raised his head thoughtfully， his little eyes were winking， and said to his brother seriously， ＂When will it thirty-second， brother？＂ The elder brother looked at his innocent younger brother and said with a smile， ＂What are you going to do on that thirty-second？＂ ＂Papa promised me to send me to school，＂ said his younger brother. His brother， the middle school student looked at his lovely brother and his heart seemed to be stitched with needles. My God！ My parents were working day and night in order to be able to afford my schooling. They were exhausted. How could they afford my younger brother＇s schooling？ Oh， thirty-second ...
My dear friends， hearing this， didn＇t you feel sorry for them？ We share the same native land， the same blue sky under the sun. Why cannot they be given lesson at school， sitting in the bright and big classroom？ We are used to saying that education goes first before vitalizing the country. But now the country＇s fiscal solvency and material resources are not ample enough. What should we do？ It requires that we should be of one heart and exert our efforts for our motherland.
同胞们，朋友们：
我曾看过这样一则报道：＂某边远山区一个中学生，一天在家复习功课，一旁的已过入学年龄的小弟弟拿他的铅笔在纸上写着、涂着、画着，突然若有所思地仰起小脸，眨巴几下小眼睛，认真地问：＇哥哥，什么时候才到32号呀？＇这位中学生看看天真的小弟弟，笑着逗他：＇32号你要干啥？＇＇爸爸说，到32号才能送我去上学。＇中学生望着可爱的小弟弟，内心针扎般难受：天哪，父母为了供自己上学，整日操劳，身体都累垮了，哪还有能力再送弟弟上学？啊！32号......＂
朋友们，当你听了这个故事，你不感到痛心吗？同在一片故土上，同在一片蓝天下，为什么他们不能坐在宽敞明亮的教室里去读书？我们常说：国家要振兴，教育须先行。而我国的财力、物力都不宽裕，怎么办？这就需要全社会的人齐心协力为国家分忧，为国家出力！
Should smoking be banned?
Different people have different opinions. Somesmokers think smoking is a kind of enjoyment, andthey could live without food but will die withoutsmoking. Also they said they have freedom ofsmoking and it has nothingto do with others.However a lot of non-smokers don't agree. In theiropinion, smoking is harmful to not onlysmokersthemselves but also public health especially thewoman and children. Therefore, many coutries have worked out lots to forbid smoking in publicplaces, such as cinemas, hospitals, stations etc. Nowadays, smokersmake up one quarter of theworld's population. If the problem of smoking is not dealt with seriously, human health will bein danger. So smoking should be banned in no time.
Future is a process,not a result.Prepare the best；enjoy the most.The future is now-it is my firm belief as well as my philosophy.Can we do nothing but dream about good luck?without hardwork,can we be kissed by good fortune?
If we really want to have a bright future,we have to take advantage of everything we possess now.if we really want to have a bright future,we have to do well what we can do now.if we really want to have a bright future,we have to race the clock.
Just remember：The future is now,many many nows make up the future!
Please allow me to end my speech with a short poem,which can best express what I want to tell all of you：
Yesterday is history,Tomorrow is mystery,Today is a gift,So,we call it “present”!
My dear fellow students,respectable judges,I wish everybody present a bright future.
I wish a fruitful future is waiting for you !
Thank you !

Students, our task is glorious and arduous. Let us join hands to shoulder the burden of history and meet the beautiful tomorrow!
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
I am Chinese. I am proud of being a Chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. I've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. I've learned about the Great Wall and the Yangtze River. I've learned about Zhang Heng( 张衡 )and I've learned about Zheng He( 郑和 ) . Who says the Yellow River Civilization has vanished( 消失 ) ？ I know that my ancestors have made miracles( 奇迹 )on this fertile land and we're still making miracles.
Who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our GNP ranks No. 7 in the world? We have experienced the plunders ( 掠夺 ) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. Yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----China, unyielding and unconquerable!
I once came across an American tourist. She said, “China has a history of five thousand years, but the US only has a history of 200 years. Five thousand years ago, China took the lead in the world, and now it is the US that is leading.”My heart was deeply touched by these words. It is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise ( 鄙视 ) ourselves. We have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. We have reasons to say proudly ： we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition ( 雄心 ) is even bigger, our challenges ( 挑战 ) are great, but our will is even greater.
I am Chinese. I have inherited ( 继承 ) black hair and black eyes. I have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. I have also taken over responsibility. I am sure, that wherever I go, whatever I do, I shall never forget that I am Chinese!
I love you, China
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, I’m very glad to make a speech here. Today my topic is “I love you, China.”
Since the day I was born, I began to have a proud name—Chinese. Since the day I began to talk, the most beautiful sentence I’ve ever learnt has been “I love you, China!”
I love you, China, and I’m so proud of being a Chinese. I’m proud that I’ve got the beautiful yellow skin, black eyes and black hair. I’m also proud that I speak the most beautiful language in the world—Chinese.
I love you, China, for I can feel the deep love you give me every day, every minute. Last year, I got an opportunity to visit the United States of America. During my staying there, my father’s boss once invited my family to dinner. While at table, he looked at me and asked: “Little boy, how long have you been in America?” “About a month,” I answered, “How lucky you are!” he said, “If you were living in China, how could you learn such perfect English?” I smiled and told him proudly that all the students in China are able to learn English at school. I saw his surprised eyes and said to myself, “I’m proud of you, China. For you are offering us the best education.”
When I came back from the USA, my friends asked me: “How do you feel about your staying there?”“Wonderful” I said. “Then why do you come back?” Hearing this, I told them there were lots of beautiful countries in the world, but none of them can compare with our own country—China. How true the saying is: “There’s no place like home!”
I love you, China. As a young student, all we should do is to study hard and devote ourselves whole-heartedly in the future, to the great cause of building you into an even stronger and greater country in the world. I love you, my dear motherland! I love you, China!
Thank you for your listening !
A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sathim down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "

哥哥的心愿 圣诞节时，保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车。圣诞节当天，保罗离开办公室时，一个男孩绕着那辆闪 闪发亮的新车，十分赞叹地问：
"先生，这是你的车?"
保罗点点头："这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。"男孩满脸惊讶，支支吾吾地说："你是说这 是你哥送的礼物，没花你一分钱?天哪，我真希望也能……"
保罗当然知道男孩他真想希望什么。他希望能有一个象那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话 却完全出乎了保罗的意料。
"我希望自己能成为送车给弟弟的哥哥。"男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩，冲口而出地说："你要不要坐我的车去兜风?"
"哦，当然好了，我太想坐了!"
车开了一小段路后，那孩子转过头来，眼睛闪闪发亮，对我说："先生，你能不能把车子开到 我家门前?"
保罗微笑，他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀，让大家知道他坐了一部大轿车 回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。"你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前?"男孩要求道。
男孩跑上了阶梯，过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了，但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来把他跛脚的弟弟 带出来了，将他安置在第一个台阶上，紧紧地抱着他，指着那辆新车。
只听那男孩告诉弟弟："你看，这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是保罗他哥哥送给 他的哦!将来我也会送给你一辆像这样的车，到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时，挂窗 口上的漂亮饰品了，就象我告诉过你的那样。"
保罗走下车子，把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子，坐在弟弟的 身旁。就这样他们三人开始一次令人难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜，保罗才真正体会主耶稣所说的"施比受更有福"的道理。

我的妈妈是一名小学老师。她在乡村上课，那个学校只有几个老师。因此，除了数学以外，她还教语文和音乐。我的妈妈是一位好老师，在学生中很受欢迎。她关心班上的每一个学生的学习和生活。她的课堂似乎很放松很活跃，但是学生可以从她那学到很多。从某种程度上来说，她对学生很严厉。当他们在学习上犯错的时候，她会直接指出来然后让学生自己先改正过来。如果他们不会，妈妈最后才会帮他们。除了学习之外，我妈妈在生活上也是个好老师。她注重学生的健康成长，所以她总是关心他们的生活。不管他们发生了什么，她总是随时倾听和提供帮助。

My favorite food is Chinese dumpling; its pronunciation is jiao zi in Chinese. It is a traditional Chinese food and essential during holidays in Northern China. And it is also popular in other Chinese holidays or festivals, so it is part of the Chinese culture or tradition. I like eating dumpling not because I am from Northern China but because it is
really very delicious and stand for reunion. My family usually eat dumpling when all the members of family come together. Making dumplings with my sisters is the happiest thing for me. Chinese dumpling is one of the most important foods in Spring Festival. Since the Spring Festival marks the first day of a brand new year, the first meal is rather important. People from north and south have different habits of the food, so they eat different foods on this special day. In Northern China, people usually eat dumplings.
Chinese dumpling is a delicious food. You can make a variety of Chinese dumplings with different fillings. It depends on your taste and how various ingredients mixed together by you. Usually if you have Chinese dumpling for dinner, you will not have to cook anything else except for some big occasions. The dumpling itself is good enough for dinner. This is one of the advantages of Chinese dumpling over other foods, though it may take longer time to make them. Making dumplings is really teamwork. All family members often make dumplings together. It is also a good time to share their stories with each other. I started to make dumplings when I was a kid in my family, so most Chinese like me know how to make dumplings.
