2024毕业英语演讲稿(精选9篇)
Dear parents and classmates,
Good afternoon!
It is my great honor to stand here today to say goodbye to my Alma mater, to say goodbye to my Alma mater, and to say goodbye to this unforgettable high school year. First of all, I would like to thank my teachers, parents and classmates for their trust in me.
Three years ago, at this time, we were yearning for this school outside the campus. Three years later, we were full of it. Three years ago, we entered the school with excellent grades and parents' expectations. Three years later, we are leaving the beautiful campus with growing experience and parents' comfort.
Standing in the three years after the end, we found that high school is a too hasty book, unconsciously, China with more than one thousand pages so rushed over, but it's more than one thousand days and nights into numerous real life details emerge in front of us, all the Chinese redbud, kapok blooming; The noisy playground, the quiet botanical garden; The sound of the morning, the hasty and full of evening, the love-hate and love-hate dining hall, the library that makes people forget to return; With my classmates' heart and soul, and the teacher's laughter... It is in the silent steps of time that we have changed from three years ago, to the mature and acute, from the confusion of three years ago, to today's steadfast courage! Choose to let us have no regrets, we would like to sincerely say: in the attachment, thank you!
When we will leave school, we might as well from the emotion in the territory to set aside a reason, ten years, twenty years or thirty years later, when the familiar faces and scenery gradually fade, when the class learned the chapter out of my mind, when we are on the stage of fuzzy failure, we rely on what to maintain the Alma mater of deep feelings? What is the common blood that flows through each of the attached people?
First of all, it is the spirit of hardship that is attached to us. "If you eat bitter, you will be a companion." We will not forget those eight days in the hot sun, the sonorous military training pace, unforgettable that week in the qingyuan township of the rice training "the three identical" of the agricultural test; We shall never forget the time when we were running around the playground with our tired legs and tired legs. I can't forget the summer night's scorching heat, the bitter cold in winter. It is these hardships that have chastened our plain character; It is these hardships that have cultivated our strong and unyielding spirit; Even more, let us understand the mission and responsibilities that are shouldering on the shoulders of contemporary youth, and let us understand the "first taste of sweet, sweet, sweet and sweet", which Yang told us. First eat big bitter, then eat small bitter, small bitter is also sweet!"
Second, it is the space that gives us freedom to think freely. If we are birds, we are the blue sky. If we are running water, it is high mountain. The attachment gives us the desire to fly high, and the attachment gives us the possibility to rush into the distance. In this area, we are free to form a community that can bring into play our individual character and talents. We make public our individuality in the election of the student union, and we display our wisdom in the innovation competition. On the other hand, very few homework assignments, a full week of self-study and body forging, and the seemingly strict but extremely loose management system. It is these freedoms that tell us that while we are focused on learning, we should develop more fully and highlight our strengths. It is these freedoms that tell us to learn to choose and to give up; It is also these freedoms that tell us to manage our own lives and plan our own lives.
Third, it is a pluralistic view of our cognitive world. Adhering to the principal wu "with complete modern education builds high quality of modern people" concept of education, the cultivation of the affiliated high school of respected multivariate quality, bring all kinds of talents to grow hair glory: there are an infinite number of elective courses, there are rich and colorful club activities, there are too many things to see the style of competition. In the school sports meet, we are splashing the sweat of youth; At the festival, we dance the young rhythm; In the science festival, we jump to innovative thinking. Cultivate the consciousness of our citizens, volunteers group wonderful "BBS of the affiliated high school of" broaden our horizons, there are rich and colorful summer camp every year and a wide variety of academic investigation activities, make we look around the world, with the world... Under the background of such respect and diversity, the soil in the attachment makes us a living individual, and we will embrace all advanced civilizations with the mind of the attached people.
Today, we stand on the new starting point of life, the road ahead is how to explore, but I know, the affiliated high school of people not afraid, because of the affiliated high school of three years of experience, let us gradually clear the way forward. Graduation from high school is both an end and a starting point. With the confidence and calmness characteristic of the attached, we will walk into the holy university hall and enter the society full of competition and challenge. We must be able to create a new splendor in the college entrance exam a week later. We must also be able to win one victory after another in the future.
The long wind and the waves will sometimes hang in the sea!
Tagore once said, "no matter how long it takes to pull the shadow of the tree, it is always connected with the root." At this moment, let us give the flowers and Thanksgiving to our many wonderful Alma mater, as well as the hard work of every teacher. Give us the Alma mater and the teacher, the place is here and now, and then there is the time, everywhere and everywhere!
Thank you.
Good morning, dear faculty members, distinguished guests, families, friends and most importantly, today’s graduates. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak to you here on behalf of the graduates. This is a memorable day both in our personal lives and in the life of this school.
Four years ago, we entered Sanjing university. Some of us may have doubted that if we had made the right decision, but now, because of the friends we made , because of the sadness and happiness we shared, because of the teachers who gave us guidance, because of all the time in Sanjiang we spent and all activities we participated in, we could not tear ourselves away from the dear campus. It’s difficult to contemplate that perhaps some of us may never see each other again. But we have so rich memeries and experiences that we will never foget each other.
Today we enter the real world to face the challenge .With the knowledge and friends we gained from our university, with the endurance, perseverance, industry we possess, every obstacle that we may encounter in our lives will be overcome. I believe that everyone will make every effort to strive for our life. And remember, an ideal job is not found lying in the street; it takes time and effort to find. But in the end, it will be there for you. So don’t settle for second best and keep looking.
Importantly, We are here today to give our thanks to the unconditional support of each of you, your words of encouragement in good times and your words of consolation in difficult moments. We thank you for your enormous patience with us, for always giving a little more than we asked for and for instilling in us the values and principles that govern our lives now and helping us to become the people we are. The degree that we will receive today also belongs to you.
Last, I would like to congratulate each of you for having reached this goal. We did it, and now we are ready to graduate!
In this season, the school is awakening, and the school is coming to the next generation of six grade students. From me to the present, after two years, I have changed from a little girl to a good big sister.
The bamboo shoots from the young shoot sprouts to the tall bamboo, each of which is a beautiful picture book, recording the wonderful life and things in our school. An interesting picture came across my mind.
I remember when I was just in grade four, Yang led me into the 41 class classroom for the first time. What a warm family it is! In a burst of applause, I introduced myself and sang to everyone. Miss Yang is very kind to me, and especially arranges me on the side of the monitor, Sun Xiaotong. The smiling faces of students, Yang also encouraged, said: "you have to work hard to learn from Sun Xiaotong, will certainly progress!"
That was the happiest time of my life. I walked downstairs and looked at the bamboo forest. I thought it was only in my hometown that I could see such a green bamboo. Now, I see it at school, and this feeling is like returning to my home.
In the unwittingly opening of the sports meeting, Mr. Yang thought I had the strength to help me to report 800 meters, although that was not my strength, but I should do my best for the honor of the class. We sold our school gate and went to the Qian Tang foreign language school to take part in the sports meet. The sound of a sweet voice on the radio is my turn to play. My mind is like a little rabbit jumping. I heard my classmates try to clap their hands and cheer for me. I took a deep breath and made full preparations, and finally ran 800 meters. At this time, I found that Mr. Yang had already waited for me at the end of the line. She supported me and tried to let me walk slowly. Although I got the name, I realized the warmth of this big group.
I remember that when we were in grade six, we carried out the meaningful activities of greening campus. The classmates in the class took all kinds of plants, some brought a pot of plants, and some brought two pots. Huang Yizhe unexpectedly brought five or six pots. In this way, with the efforts of our whole class, the number of plants in the class is the largest. The bamboo outside the window was blown over by the wind and nodded. It should be praising me for doing well.
This one thing, like that one day bamboo stands erect.
Goodbye to my alma mater, you taught me, you let me find happiness and happiness. Goodbye, my teacher, is that you have given me knowledge, let my blank mind, add a lot of knowledge, I have grown a lot! Goodbye, my classmates, you have let me know for the first time the true meaning of friendship, the strength of unity and unity. Ill always remember you.
Good morning, everybody!
Teachers and classmates, we are leaving our alma mater, ending our primary school life and going to junior high school. We have not yet parted, we have to rely on it! My heart is trembling slightly, for the moment that is remembered for life is coming. The unforgettable moment, I once hoped, now is not willing to give up. Excitement, bewilderment, laughter, frustration, tone sandals, cheerful steps, and moving songs are all integrated into our hearts.
Do you really want to leave? The beautiful campus is so long and so clear, a picture of a teacher dedicated to us, the scene of the flow of students, these let us from yesterdays naive to the long road to todays sensible, how can I forget? Memories of the past, in the wide playground, in the warm classroom, I always look at the blue sky, white clouds, the beautiful campus in the sunshine, the pattern is so beautiful; the wind in the campus, how many times the soft lift our hair, the campus joyous laughter let our heart forever abundance. My beautiful campus, it is like this, such as a roll of good painting, the moon is empty, moonlight star, light, just like the silver lining, showing the dreamy and tempting color...
After six years of running water, the life of primary school is about to end, and we are about to lift the sails of middle school, soar in the deeper knowledge of the middle school, and explore in a more mysterious realm of life. Looking back at the long learning path, there are ups and downs, sweet, hope, loss, success, failure, joy and anger. But in the end, we have all gone through this period of learning. The rosy rose, falling from my head, is spinning in the air, and the shadow of the sun is gently passing through my eyes. Farewell, beautiful campus, farewell, beloved teacher; farewell, lovely classmates. Bit by bit, one minute and a second. Ah, there is a feeling of gratitude for my teacher in my heart. At that time, my red scarf, beating like a flame in my chest, read the book. The teacher came up and helped me on the shoulder. I spoke earnestly, pointing to the red flag flying and hunting, and earnestly told me. Endless words of endless love, stirring up the tide of emotion in my heart.
Do you really want to leave? The beautiful campus has given us endless joy, hope, song and fragrance. To become a middle school student, we must work hard for it.
It is only in order to get to the finish line that it is on the road; only to achieve the best success can we go on the most difficult and difficult road.
good morning, my dear teachers,what friendship? the answers may be different. but one thing clear that friendship the most important ingredient in the recipe of life. we cannot live without friendship just as we cannot survive without air and water. friendship gives us a feeling of security and warmth, and friendship encourages us to go ahead all the time.
everyone needs friends and eager to get friendship. when we feel happy, we can share our happiness with friends. when we feel gloomy, friends will fort us. if we are arrogant, our friends can persuade us, and they can make us confident and brave when we are dcouraged.
friendship valuable. it can touch your heart and give you hope. many people are proud of having a good friend. true friendship must be sincere and must not have conditions. if you help your friends for no reason but simply because they are your friends, th means that you regard your friends as yourself. th true friends.
true friendship should be based on mutual understanding, not on mutual benefit. moreover, both must also have similar ideals. if not, their friendship still cannot last long. sometimes, people have good friends when they are young and studying in school. however, after graduation, when they are working in the society, their friendship will soon e to an end.
mutual understanding doesn’t always mean that we should know every thing of our friends. it means that they have similar ideals and trust each other. on the other hand, doing similar things can build up the friendship.
in fact, friendship n’t always easily kept. when you want to keep a friend, you should treat him or her like you want to be treated. keep the secrets that your friend tells you. keep your prome with your friend. share things with your friend. stick up for your friend. we should try our best to protect the friendship from being hurt. as an old saying goes, “friendship cannot stand always on one side.” true friendship should be able to stand all kinds of tests.
because of friendship, our lives are full of happiness. therefore, the more friends we have, the more pleasure we can share with them. let’s say “thank you” to our friends for their love and care. no matter where we go or who we bee, never forget to keep the beautiful friendship!
Dear leaders,teachers and dear students,
Good evening,everyone!
I feel very honored to have the opportunity to speak here on behalf of the 04 graduates. Today is an unforgettable day for our graduates,because after today,our university life will be a full stop. We will say goodbye to the students who get along with each other,say goodbye to the teachers,train our alma mater and step on the new journey of life. Here,let me,on behalf of the 04 graduates,express our heartfelt thanks and respect to all our leaders and teachers.
4 days of college life will soon become a beautiful memory. Four years ago,we entered the campus with a beautiful vision. After four years,we left each other with our dreams. In four years,we have learned to grow,learn to think,learn to cooperate and compete,learn to trust each other,and learn how to constantly improve themselves and surpass ourselves. All the way through,the teacher's courtesy and profound expectation,the careful care and silent support of the students and friends,and our hard pursuit and high spirited struggle. Looking back on yesterday,a warm smile from our friends,a warm atmosphere in the class,let us learn to love,to persist and to believe in the future.
Come together do not know how to cherish,leave only to know heavy. The unconditional bell of separation has been ringing in your ears. Look back on the past,feeling full of emotion. The age of innocence,the light dance of sophomore,and the tension and bustle of junior high have become eternal memories.
Remember the scene that just stepped into the school gate? Remember our introduction on the first day of enrollment? Remember when we were shopping together,drinking together,chatting together and singing together? Do you remember the morning rush to the playground to do morning exercises? Do you remember being squeezed together for dinner? Do you remember sitting up late reading for the exam? The library of the North District Library,the fossil forest in the eastern area,the dinosaur egg in the Shaw Museum,and the fried rice in the two canteen. The curtain is like a beautiful picture of clipping. It is a movie that is about to play. It plays our happiness and sadness,records our youth and our past,and everything is like a poem that has not finished. The banquet banquet,hand off the hand,go all the way... Everything seems to have been envisaged that everything is too helpless.
Yes,we graduated today,we say goodbye to the once ignorant,farewell to the once young and frivolous,farewell that pure youth years,ushered in another fresh sunshine,and the heart has a new dream. Farewell to this place that reminds us of ourselves,we will surely soar in another wider sky. No matter how we came in four years,we need not complain and regret at the moment. We will clear everything tomorrow. Graduation is not the end,not the completion,but the announcement of progress,but a new beginning.
In the light of the stars,recalling the best four years of this life,let us say goodbye and send a blessing,no matter how many years,no matter where we go,and we will not forget that we have been nurtured by this deep feeling of land,a palace that gave us knowledge and ability; and we will not forget,For our growth and diligent leadership and teachers,we will never forget the profound friendship we have formed in the past four years.
A seed will always find a soil suitable for its own growth,for it is only there to produce more bright flowers; a drop of water will always return to the sea,for only in the rough sea can it bloom the glory of life. I believe that today's separation is better for tomorrow.
Finally,let us wish the alma mater's tomorrow more brilliant; wish our teachers work well,health,family happiness; also bless our classmates,four years of companions of brothers and sisters,all the way,bright future. Remember,we have another appointment in ten years.
Thank you.
One Student Is Just Like a Flower
My dear Mr. and Misses, my fellows schoolmates,
Good morning! As you know and see, it is a sunny bump harvest season. In the city, in our school campus, everywhere is surrounded with roses which we together planted 4 years ago. Today may these roses and our friendship as well be together and comfort our excited hearts!
It was four years ago that everyone of us came from every part of China and formed a new collective. As we are young, it’s very easy for us to communicate. It was in the past four years that we were ambitious. It was in the past four years that we worried. It was in the past four years that we were content. It was in the past four years that we were vexed. It was in the past four years that we were friendly and lonely ... and it was in the past fours that we studied, lived and respected each other with genuine and with our ambitions. Nothing in the world is more significant than we miss all of these.
We miss you─teachers who are tireless in teaching; we will keep your gestures and your white hairs in our hearts deeply; we will miss the quietness with the lights at night in the classroom; we will miss the race and exercise on the playground; we will miss even the crowds in the dining hall and the quarrel on the beds; we will still miss every green piece and every piece of waste paper flying like flakes in the air ... However, today we will leave nothing but the first rose with our Alma Mater and our teachers which is entrusted with our love and respect.
4 years seems very long but 4 years seems very short. From now on, we all will go into the society. The society is broad and wide for us. We will shoulder heavy responsibilities; we will work diligently; and we will expect to be informed of good news from one another. Now, I beg you all to cherish the occasion; to remember the names, the status, appearance and the character of the person around you. Now let’s be hand in hand together; let’s present the rose to each other. May the rose carry our appreciation and blessing! We are very closely linked no matter what the world may be. May the fresh rose in our hands keep its fragrants!
Thank you all again!
Dear teachers, dear classmates:
Hello everyone!
Today, I stand here to say goodbye to our alma mater on behalf of all the first three graduates, to say goodbye to the teachers in nineteen, to say goodbye to the students who get along with each other, and to say goodbye to the unforgettable years.
At this moment, I feel very excited, both joy of graduation, but also can not hide unlimited memories and nostalgia. Three years of life, we live full and beautiful, we shed tears, but accompanied by laughter, we follow the thorns, but smell the fragrance of thousands of flowers.
I remember that three years ago that shallow autumn, just entered the nineteen middle school gate, ignorant of our curiosity and joy. In the Shaw building, we worked hard together and worked hard together, bringing together the fresh and fresh together to fight for the future. In the first second, in the yellow tower, in the gap of sweat and sweat, we do not forget to stand in the blue sky before looking at the blue sky and thinking of the future. For the sake of a problem, we have become the most beautiful scenery in this campus. In the first three years, the main building, which was drowned in the title sea, suddenly found out that our impression of junior high school is no longer a stack of test papers and exercises, but the gratitude and love of the middle school, which makes us heart and nurture our growing knowledge palace. It is both eyes that touch the "Nineteen middle". The strong sense of the name and the pride that followed it. Looking back at every shot in the past three years, teachers in the classroom or endless, or follow the lead, or cited.
Here we see the past, present and future of the world. Teacher, with your diligent sweat and selfless dedication, you have taught us to analyze and think, enrich and practice, cooperate and compete, to inherit and innovate, and to further learn how to continue to surpass and break through the limits of our own. Our life. The magnificent rhetoric can not express our respect and love for you, both teachers, friends and relatives. Now that we are graduating, all these warm memories will be engraved on our hearts and carefully collected. The future is a magic cube that changes constantly. People need more efforts and efforts. There are more twists and tests on the road that is about to enter, and you have to smile to face, to meet quietly, to fight bravely. We are going to go on a journey in the first three days of the long voyage. At this moment, what we are going to do is to adjust our mind, to witness a miracle in a day after a day, to bring a smile to life and to make life surging. Bring out the best results to repay our alma mater's kindness to us. Let's work in the beautiful campus for three years and go to the eight party to write a new colorful chapter in high school and future learning life.
My speech is finished, thank you.
I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.
I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.
Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Here's how it goes:
My uncle ordered popovers from the restaurant's bill of fare. And when they were served, he regarded them with a penetrating stare . . . Then he spoke great Words of Wisdom as he sat there on that chair: "To eat these things," said my uncle, "you must excercise great care. You may swallow down what's solid . . . BUT . . . you must spit out the air!"
And . . . as you partake of the world's bill of fare, that's darned good advice to follow. Do a lot of spitting out the hot air. And be careful what you swallow.
大学生毕业英语演讲稿篇3
Faculty, family, friends, and fellow graduates, good evening.
I am honored to address you tonight. On behalf of the graduating masters and doctoral students of Washington University's School of Engineering and Applied Science, I would like to thank all the parents, spouses, families, and friends who encouraged and supported us as we worked towards our graduate degrees. I would especially like to thank my own family, eight members of which are in the audience today. I would also like to thank all of the department secretaries and other engineering school staff members who always seemed to be there when confused graduate students needed help. And finally I would like to thank the Washington University faculty members who served as our instructors, mentors, and friends.
As I think back on the seven-and-a-half years I spent at Washington University, my mind is filled with memories, happy, sad, frustrating, and even humorous.
Tonight I would like to share with you some of the memories that I take with me as I leave Washington University.
I take with me the memory of my office on the fourth floor of Lopata Hall - the room at the end of the hallway that was too hot in summer, too cold in winter, and always too far away from the women's restroom. The window was my office's best feature. Were it not for the physics building across the way, it would have afforded me a clear view of the arch. But instead I got a view of the roof of the physics building. I also had a view of one corner of the roof of Urbauer Hall, which seemed to be a favorite perch for various species of birds who alternately won perching rights for several weeks at a time. And I had a nice view of the physics courtyard, noteworthy as a good place for watching people run their dogs. It's amazing how fascinating these views became the longer I worked on my dissertation. But my favorite view was of a nearby oak tree. From my fourth-floor vantage point I had a rather intimate view of the tree and the various birds and squirrels that inhabit it. Occasionally a bird would land on my window sill, which usually had the effect of startling both of us.
I take with me the memory of two young professors who passed away while I was a graduate student. Anne Johnstone, the only female professor from whom I took a course in the engineering school, and Bob Durr, a political science professor and a member of my dissertation committee, both lost brave battles with cancer. I remember them fondly.
I take with me the memory of failing the first exam in one of the first engineering courses I took as an undergraduate. I remember thinking the course was just too hard for me and that I would never be able to pass it. So I went to talk to the professor, ready to drop the class. And he told me not to give up, he told me I could succeed in his class. For reasons that seemed completely ludicrous at the time, he said he had faith in me. And after that my grades in the class slowly improved, and I ended the semester with an A on the final exam. I remember how motivational it was to know that someone believed in me.
I take with me memories of the midwestern friendliness that so surprised me when I arrived in St. Louis 8 years ago. Since moving to New Jersey, I am sad to say, nobody has asked me where I went to high school.
I take with me the memory of the short-lived computer science graduate student social committee lunches. The idea was that groups of CS grad students were supposed to take turns cooking a monthly lunch. But after one grad student prepared a pot of chicken that poisoned almost the entire CS grad student population and one unlucky faculty member in one fell swoop, there wasn't much enthusiasm for having more lunches.
I take with me the memory of a more successful graduate student effort, the establishment of the Association of Graduate Engineering Students, known as AGES. Started by a handful of engineering graduate students because we needed a way to elect representatives to a campus-wide graduate student government, AGES soon grew into an organization that now sponsors a wide variety of activities and has been instrumental in addressing a number of engineering graduate student concerns.
I take with me the memory of an Engineering and Policy department that once had flourishing programs for full-time undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students.
I take with me memories of the 1992 U.S. Presidential debate. Eager to get involved in all the excitement I volunteered to help wherever needed. I remember spending several days in the makeshift debate HQ giving out-of-town reporters directions to the athletic complex. I remember being thrilled to get assigned
the job of collecting film from the photographers in the debate hall during the debate. And I remember the disappointment of drawing the shortest straw among the student volunteers and being the one who had to take the film out of the debate hall and down to the dark room five minutes into the debate - with no chance to re-enter the debate hall after I left.
I take with me memories of university holidays which never seemed to apply to graduate students. I remember spending many a fall break and President's Day holiday with my fellow grad students in all day meetings brought to us by the computer science department.
I take with me memories of exams that seemed designed more to test endurance and perseverance than mastery of the subject matter. I managed to escape taking any classes that featured infamous 24-hour-take-home exams, but remember the suffering of my less fortunate colleagues. And what doctoral student could forget the pain and suffering one must endure to survive the qualifying exams? I take with me the memory of the seven-minute rule, which always seemed to be an acceptable excuse for being ten minutes latefor anything on campus, but which doesn't seem to apply anywhere else I go.
I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.
I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.
Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Here's how it goes:
My uncle ordered popoversfrom the restaurant's bill of fare. And when they were served,he regarded them with a penetrating stare . . .
Then he spoke great Words of Wisdom as he sat there on that chair:
"To eat these things,"
said my uncle,
"you must excercise great care.
You may swallow down what's solid . . . BUT . . .
you must spit out the air!"
And . . .
as you partake of the world's bill of fare, that's darned good advice to follow. Do a lot of spitting out the hot air. And be careful what you swallow.
Thank you.
