拖延症英语演讲稿 篇1

Friendship

拖延症英语演讲稿(精选19篇)

友谊

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.

我们每个人,不论富裕还是贫穷,至少应该有一个或两个好朋友。我的朋友会听我说,如果我想说话,要擦去我的眼睛当我哭泣,会照顾我在我生病时,我的朋友将与我一起肩并肩在这人生旅程。

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.

友谊是一种财宝在我们的生活。它实际上是像一瓶酒,越久保留,这将是更香甜。它就像一杯茶。当我们口渴时,这将是对我们最好的选择,但当我们有足够的时间去玩得很开心的,它也是最芬芳的饮料。

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.

我们所有的人都要花点时间来个人的生活。我们必须找到机会来表达我们的感情和爱。当住在我们的朋友,我们可以放松自己完全。我们可以做任何我们想要的,我们能一起大声笑,一起交谈,甚至哭泣下。我应该说,是我们最好的朋友一起是最精彩的时刻,我们的生活。

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.

正如我们所知道的,我们会感到寂寞,如果我们还没有一个朋友。但这并不意味着我们可以依靠我们的朋友。有个著名的格言说:“一个朋友就像一个棉花棉丝被子,但真正的东西,是使你暖和是你自己的温度。“这是真的。我们必须努力同我们的朋友,互相激励,互相帮助。当我们能收到更多的爱与友谊,我们应该偿还高达就可以了。

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

最后,让我们一起祈祷了,有一天,我们都能找到我们想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友谊的真正左右我们的生活了。让我们一起祈祷友谊之花却成为我们的朋友,我们将永远绽放鲜艳的在我们的心中

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇2

Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, with the developmet of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin, horns, teeth and meat.  许多野生动物正面临绝种的危险,因为它们生活的环境发生了极大的变化。例如,随着城市的发展,杀虫剂的使用和严重的污染,他们的生活区域变得越来越狭小。许多野生动物,现在面临粮食危机。同时,人类正在屠杀野生动物只是为了获得它们的皮毛,皮肤,角,牙齿和肉。

In order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty. There fore, measures of the following should be taken: pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life, reserves.

为了保护生态资源,人们应该意识到任何物种的缺失,至少意味着知识资源和自然美的缺失。因此,本应采取以下措施:制订污染标准以降低有毒物质;严禁杀害某些稀有物种;应建立国家公园作为野生动物,保护区。

Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved.

我们只有采取一些有力措施,才能保护野生动物。

I now finally understand the benefits and benefits of reading books,reading the benefits are: 1, 2, rich knowledge, can be happy life。 I thinkreading has bee more fun, because reading the original is the rich, that it'sgood to read, can kill two birds with one stone, can be a wealth of knowledgeand a happy life。

So I read more books will be for us a lot of help, so I here remind youthat read mainly we don't pretend to understand。

在语文书上有一篇课文主要教我们怎样选取书,老师先让我们读一读这篇课文,我读了之后,我已经有点明白它的意思了,再等老师讲一下,我更家明白了,这这主要是讲了读多点书,能使我们的知识更加丰富。

我还记得老师说过,读多点书能够快乐一生,所以我此刻就试一下,争取一个星期读完一本书,我我在读书的时候,妈妈说“你这麽乖,坐在那里认真的看书”“我本来就乖的,不是此刻才乖的”。妈妈又在说“这样就好了,读书是给自我读的,不是给老师和家长看的”。

我此刻最后明白了读书的好处和益处,看书的好处有:1、丰富知识2、能够快乐一生。我觉得读书越来越好玩了,因为读书原先是这丰富的,这读书真好,能够一举两得,能够丰富知识又能够快乐一生。

所以我读多点书也会对于我们很大帮忙,所以我在那里提醒你们,读书主要我们不要不懂装懂。

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇4

Fail don't mean you is a for failed, fail to just mean you haven't succeeded; Fail don't mean you a have no become, fail to mean you get experience; Fail don't mean you are a stupid person who don't know to improvise, failing to mean you have Attic faith; Fail don't mean you have to has been suppressing not and quickly, failing to mean you take pleasure in trying.......

This is the failure, precious failure.

每个人都会有失败.失败乃成功之母,如果没有失败,那就不会有成功.的确,成功的人很幸福,他们拥有鲜花,掌声.但失败的人,拥有的只有寂寞和冷落.其实,我们更加应该去尊敬的是那些失败的人.因为,有了失败,才有成功.

失败并不表示你是一为失败者,失败只是表示你尚未成功; 失败并不表示你一无所成,失败表示你得到经验; 失败并不表示你是一个不知变通的蠢人,失败表示你有坚定的信念; 失败并不表示你必须一直压抑不快,失败表示你乐意尝试.......

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇5

As the saying goes, "Time is money." But does time definitely mean money? Idon't think so.

常言道:时间就是金钱。但是时间真的就意味着金钱吗?我不这么认为。

First of all, time is more precious than money. When money is spent, youcan earn it back if you like. However, when time is gone, it will never comeback again. To some extent, time is priceless.

首先,时间比金钱更加珍贵。如果金钱花完了,只要你愿意你可以再挣回来。但是,如果时间没了,它永远不会再回来。在某种程度上,时间是无价的。

Second, not all time can be turned into money in the end. Some persons areidling all the time. Their time is just for wasting, not for earning money. Theywill end in nothing at last.

其次,不是所有的时间最终都能转换成金钱。许多人虚度光阴。他们的时间只是用来浪费的,不是挣钱。最终他们将一无所获。

Therefore, be sure to remember that time can be turned into money only withhard work involved in it.

因此,一定要谨记,只有努力工作时间才可以转换成金钱。

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇6

First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”

Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 20xx Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway lines, public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.

Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances, could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?

I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question, ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”

For us, I mean the Chinese youth, 20xx Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us society is just like a ship, and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is, but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning, however, when we wake up, we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing, most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ----that is someone who will give comfort to others.

At the end of my speech, I hope all the preparation will go well, and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇7

change the world? change ourselves

good evening, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.

it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.

it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.

frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with ed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. (examples) why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.

there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.

with the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture. only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us.

at last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ,that is:if you want to change the world, then you must change yourself first.”

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇9

Success is made up of one percent talent and ninety-nine percent effort.

The process of climbing is hard, but the scenery of the top is different than it in the bottom of the order to see the scenery of the top, we must overcome all difficulties bravely thing easy to say , but difficult to do. The peak looks so far away from our, the leg is so painful, and others say that, forget it, you can't climb up, quickly stop and rest.

So, the higher of the mountain, the fewer people. But, could we give up the scenery of the peak? although Success is far away, but there it is, it hands to us ,and encourage us to persist a while, the most beautiful scenery will belong to us. So, no matter how tired, no matter how hard, we still adhere to the teeth, until success. Like Chris Gardner, in order to survive, to his son, he works very hard, although so tired that even want to give up, but he knew, giving up is a thorough failure, means coming back to the origin, losting hope at the same time. You got a dream, you gonna protect it. When we at the most hard time, hold on for a moment, will be the most beautiful scenery.

Successful people will never give up after the storm, rather than born with the ability to got ks!

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇11

Good morning everyone!

My name is Jie Lidi. Today, my topic is: “Confidence”. As we all know, failure is the mother of success. But What I want to say is that success is the child of confidence. Without confidence, things can becom#e negative and uncom#fortable. I remember, during an English class, I wanted to make a sentence using the word "listen". I should have said: "I listen to the Voice of America" but I was too nervous and said "I listen to the Noise of America". Everybody in the class laughed. Since then I wanted to train myself to be confident. Now, confidence makes me brave and courageous. Take this speech for example. I wanted to enter this com#petition, but I would feel very embarrassed if I made mistakes. Just then, I thought about my dream. My dream is to becom#e a scientist when I grow up. If I am not confident, how can I overcom#e difficulties I face? If I am not confident, how can I succeed in developing myself in the future? I will do it! Today, I am making a speech in public and I feel proud and confident!

I am sure, in the future, with confidence, I will go forward-always forward. Confidence will make my dreams com#e true!

Thank you!

Hello! Every one. My name is XuJiaWei, from Class 3 Grade 7.

Please think a minute! I heard a funny true story about this guy who goes to the gym to exercise and work out each week. He takes 20 minutes to change his clothes. Then he walks around the gym talking with different people.

After that, he reads the newspaper. Finally, he does a few stretches and 5 minutes of exercises. Then he takes a hot steam bath before going home. So in the whole 2 hours he?s at the gym, he only spends 5 minutes exercising! One day, someone heard this man saying:“I don?t understand it. I go the the gym almost everyday, but I never seem to lose weight.” But every body at the gym knows why, because they see this guy there doing everything except the main thing exercise!

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇14

大家都知道,每年的十月三十一日是万圣节,万圣节那天,每人要穿着鬼服装,你们知道这是为什么吗?哈哈,我就告诉你们吧:因为西方国家的新年在十一月,他们认为过年前一晚,有很多鬼出没,有精灵、妖精、吸血鬼等,我们穿着鬼服装,他们以为我们也是鬼,就不怕了,所以我们要穿鬼服装。

那你们知道为什么要做南瓜灯呢?我也来告诉你们吧:因为鬼要骗我们,比如说堕落天使,他们就是人类的敌人,我们在南瓜灯上刻了一个鬼脸,就是笑他们,笨蛋才会上你们当呢!

我想你们也知道了了万圣节的由来了吧!

Everyone knows that Halloween is on October 31st every year, and onHalloween, everyone is dressed in ghost costumes. Do you know why? Ha ha, I willtell you: because the western New Year in November, they think that the nightbefore New Year, there are a lot of haunted by the ghost, elves, goblins,vampires, we wear ghost costumes, they think we are ghosts, not afraid, so wehave to wear ghost costumes.

So why do you want to make a jack-o '-lantern? I'll tell you: because theywant to cheat us, for example the fallen angels, they are the enemy of mankind,we carved an image of a face on the pumpkin, they is a smile, when a foolmeeting you!

I think you know the origin of Halloween!

Students, guests , teachers and Honorable Judges

Good morning !

my great pleasure to share my dream with you I was a child, I wanted to be a teacher. My father was a teacher, and he taught me a lot. I worshiped him very much. On my tenth birthday, he asked me,“What do you want to be when you grow up?”I answered proudly,“I want to be a teacher like you!”On hearing this, my father was very happy and said to me, “Work hard and your dream will come true.” Not long ago, one of my primary school teachers was ill. She wanted me to take her place for two weeks. I was glad but nervous. My father said to me,“This is a good chance. Seize it! I wish you success!” When I came into the classroom, the children were very happy.

I introduced myself to them. Soon, I got on well with them. They all liked me and I loved them. With my father and headmaster's help, I did the work very well. Now, I often miss those lovely children. That experience had made me even more interested in being a teacher in the future.

ladies and gentlemen, good morning! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.

man’s life is a process of growing up, actually i’m standing here is a growth. if a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then i grow up along with these choices. once i hope i can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know i come here, now i wonder what the future holds for me.

My favourite season is spring.

Everything is very lively in the spring. The flowers are blooming, the trees are growing and the grass is turning green. I like lying on the grass and enjoy the sun shine in the park in the spring. We also can fly a kite, have a picnic, go on a trip or climb the mountain, but I don’t like to do those things, because they will make me feel tired. Some people like to go to the countryside, however I don’t think it is a good place to go for a rest. I don’t like the other season, because they are not very warm: summer is too hot, winter is too cold. While autumn is cool, it isn’t very beautiful.

Last year, I went to the Slender West Lake in Yang Zhou. First we took a boat to travel down the lake, we saw the Qiong flowers on the bank, and they were very beautiful. Then we visited the Five Kiosks Bridge, there were five kiosks on the bridge, and every kiosk has a long history. We sit in the kiosk and took some photos. Last we went to the Fishing Platform. Why do people call it ‘Fishing Platform’? Because the emperor called ‘Qian Long’ in Qing Dynasty visited it. We also fished in it. We had a good time in Yang Zhou.

Anyway, my favourite season is spring.

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇18

Less than three months ago at platform hearings in Salt LakeCity, I asked the Republican Party to lift the shroud of silence which has been draped over the issue of HIV and AIDS. I have come tonight to bring our silence to an end. I bear a message of challenge, not self-congratulation. I want your attention, not your applause.

差不多三个月前,在盐湖城召开的政党纲领听证会上,我向共和党提出了一个请求:打破长期以来对艾滋病病毒和艾滋病问题的沉默。今晚,我来到这儿,是要给这样的沉默作个了断。我带来的是挑战,不是自鸣得意;我需要的是大家的关注,不是掌声。

I would never have asked to be HIV positive, but I believe that in all things there is a purpose; and I stand before you and before the nation gladly. The reality of AIDS is brutally clear. Two hundred thousand Americans are dead or dying. A million more are infected. Worldwide, fortymillion, sixty million, or a hundred million infections will be counted in the coming few years. But despite science and research, White House meetings, and congressional hearings, despite good intentions and bold initiatives, campaign slogans, and hopeful promises, it is -- despite it all -- the epidemic, which is winning tonight.

我从未主动要求做一名艾滋病病毒携带者,但我相信因果论。今天我站在众人的面前,站在国人的面前,心甘情愿。艾滋病存在的现实残酷地摆在世人的面前。近20万美国人因此命丧黄泉或命悬一线;100万人已染上艾滋病。在世界范围内,在未来的几年里,将会出现4千万、6千万、乃至1万万个艾滋病的感染病例。

In the context of an election year, I ask you, here in this great hall, or listening in the quiet of your home, to recognize that AIDS virus is not a political creature. It does not care whether you are Democrat or Republican; it does not ask whether you are black or white, male or female, gay or straight, young or old.

借此大选年之际,我希望在座的所有人,以及安坐在家中的听众,都能够认识到艾滋病病毒不是一种政治产物。它不在乎你是民主党人还是共和党人,也不管你是黑人还是白人,男人还是女人,同性恋者还是异性恋者,青年人还是老年人。

Tonight, I represent an AIDS community whose members have been reluctantly drafted from every segment of American society. Though I am white and a mother, I am one with a black infant struggling with tubes in a Philadelphia hospital. Though I am female and contracted this disease in marriage and enjoy the warm support of my family, I am one with the lonely gay man sheltering a flickering candle from the cold wind of this family’s rejection.

今天晚上,我代表的是一个艾滋病者团体。那些无奈地成为这个团体成员的人们,来自美国社会的各个领域。我是一名白人母亲,但同时也代表费城医院里那些正与输液管抗争的黑人婴儿。我是一名在婚后感染了艾滋病毒的女性,家人的支持让我倍感温暖;但我同时也代表那些孤独的同性恋男子,他们在家人排斥的冷风下,苦苦守护着自己那摇曳飘忽的生命之火。

This is not a distant threat. It is a present danger. The rate of infection is increasing fasted among women and children. Largely unknown a decade ago, AIDS is the third leading killer of young adult Americanstoday. But it won’t be third for long. Because unlike other diseases, this one travels. Adolescents don’t give each other cancer or heart disease because they believe they are in love, but HIV is different; and we have helped it along. We have killed each other with our ignorance, our prejudice, and our silence.

艾滋病不是一个遥远的威胁,而是眼前的危险。而妇女和儿童的感染率上升得最快。十年前,大多数人还没有听说过艾滋病,现在,它已经是美国年轻人群的第三大杀手了。而且它不会一直停留在第三的位置上,因为与其它疾病不同,艾滋病是具有传染性的。年轻人不会因为相爱而互相传染癌症或者心脏病,但艾滋病毒不同,我们助长了它的传播。我们因为自己的无知、偏见和缄默而互相伤害。

We may take refuge in our stereotypes, but we cannot hide there long, because HIV asks only one thing of those it attacks. Are you human?And this is the right question. Are you human? Because people with HIV have not entered some alien state of being. They are human. They have not earned cruelty, and they do not deserve meanness. They don’t benefit from being isolated or treated as outcasts. Each of them is exactly what God made: aperson; not evil, deserving of our judgment; not victims, longing for our pity; people, ready for support and worthy of compassion.

我们可以用老一套方法来逃避,但却躲避不了多久。因为艾滋病毒在袭击目标的时候只考虑一点:你是不是人类?艾滋病毒携带者并没有并没有变成什么奇异物种。他们仍是人类。他们并没有变的更凶残,不应该因此而遭受刻薄的对待。孤立和鄙视对他们没有任何的帮助。他们中的每一个也都是上帝创造的人,不是等候我们判决的魔鬼,也不是渴盼我们怜悯的受害者;他们都是人,希望得到大家的支持,也值得大家的同情。

My call to the nation is a plea for awareness. If you believe you are safe, you are in danger. Because I was not hemophiliac, I was not at risk. Because I was not gay, I was not at risk. Because I did not inject drugs, I was not at risk.

我恳请大家对艾滋病引起重视,如果你们认为自己是安全的,你已身处险境。我并非血友病患者,我以为我没有危险;我不是同性恋,我以为我没有危险;我也不吸毒,我以为我没有危险。

My father has devoted much of his lifetime guarding against another holocaust. He is part of the generation who heard Pastor Nemoellor come out of the Nazi death camps to say:

They came after the Jews, and I was not a Jew, so I did not protest. They came after the trade unionists, and I was not a trade unionist, so, I did not protest. Then they came after the Roman Catholics, and I was not a Roman Catholic, so, I did not protest. Then they came after me, and there was no one left to protest.”

我父亲把生命的大部分时间贡献给了另一场屠戮的抗争。他们那一代人都听说过内莫洛神父的那段话。从纳粹集中营中出来后,神父说:

‘他们追捕犹太人,我不是犹太人,所以,我没有抗议。他们追捕工会主义者,我不是工会主义者,所以,我没有抗议。接着,他们追捕罗马天主教徒,我不是罗马天主教徒,所以,我没有抗议。再接下来,他们追捕我,这时,已经没有可以抗议的人了。’

The lesson history teaches is this: If you believe you are safe, you are at risk. If you do not see this killer stalking your children,look again. There is no family or community, no race or religion, no place left in America that is safe. Until we genuinely embrace this message, we are a nation at risk.

历史的教训告诉我们:如果你认为自己是安全的,那么你已身处险境。如果你没有察觉这个杀手正悄悄地走近你的孩子,那么请再仔细看一眼。在美国,没有任何一个家庭或社区,没有任何一个种族或宗教,没有任何一个地方,是绝对安全的。直到我们能够真正意识到这一点,我们才有可能脱离险境。

Someday our children will be grown. My son Max, now four, will take the measure of his mother. My son Zachary, now two, will sort through his memories. I may not be here to hear their judgments, but I know already what I hope they are. I want my children to know that their mother was not a victim. She was a messenger. I do not want them to think, as I once did, that courage is the absence of fear. I want them to know that courage is the strength to act wisely when most we are afraid.

总有一天,我们的孩子会长大成人。我四岁的儿子马克斯,将会审视他的母亲。我两岁的儿子扎卡里,也会搜寻关于他母亲的记忆。我也许无法听到他们的评价了,但我已经知道我希望得到怎样的评价。我希望孩子们明白,他们的母亲并不是一个受害者,她是信使。我希望他们不会像我从前那样,认为勇气等于无所畏惧。我希望他们明白,真正的勇气,是在大家感到害怕的时候,依然能采取明智行为的能力。

I ask no more of you than I ask of myself or of my the millions of you who are grieving, who are frightened, who have suffered the ravages of AIDS firsthand: Have courage, and you will find support. To the millions who are strong, I issue the plea: Set aside prejudice and politics to make room for compassion and sound policy.

我对你们的期望与我对自己及我的孩子们的期望是一样的。数以百万计因直接受到艾滋病侵害而正伤心恐惧的人们:请拿出勇气来吧,你们会得到支持的。而那些广大的身体健康的人们,我请求你们:把偏见和政治成见凡在一旁吧,为同情心和明智的政策留出空间。

To all within the sound of my voice, I appeal: Learn with me the lessons of history and of grace, so my children will not be afraid to say the word AIDS when I am gone. Then, their children and yours may not need to whisper it at all.

我向所有能听见我的声音的人们呼吁:请和我一起吸取历史的教训,学会感恩。这样,当我去世之后,我的孩子们就不会害怕提及‘艾滋病’这一字眼。将来,他们的孩子,你们的孩子,都无需再低声密语地讨论艾滋病。

God bless the children, and God bless us all.

Good night.

愿上帝保佑孩子们,愿上帝保佑我们每一个人。

晚安

拖延症英语演讲稿 篇19

I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.

Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King. But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.

However, we meed dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectives and stick to it. Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future. Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will make it.

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.

抓牢你的梦想

我今天有一个梦想。

我梦想有一天,幽谷上升,高山下降,崎岖之地变平原,曲折之路成坦途。圣光展露,满照人间。

这对马丁路德金是怎样的一个梦想啊。不过这个变化着的世界似乎在告诉我,在成长的过程中,人们却不知不觉把他们的梦想弄丢了,而我自己也有时会觉得在告别很多童年的梦。

然而,我们是需要梦想的。梦想滋养我们的灵魂,梦想代表着我们被现实拉垮时依然具有的希望。它鼓励我们不断前进。大多数成功人士都是梦想家,同时也是普通人,只是他们敢于梦想敢于成就伟大。当我们还是孩子的时候,我们都梦想过做一番大事业,现在应当做的就是保存好那些梦想,再度恢复它们,并将它们实现。不过最难的是我们通常不知道怎样付诸实施。那么,就从最具体的目标开始,坚持去做吧。不要让那些莫名的恐惧迷惑了我们的双眼,影响了我们对未来的信念。用我们的天资和智慧,用我们的耐力和创造力,我们一定会实现梦想。

抓牢你的梦想,因为如果梦想死亡,生活就成了一只折断翅膀的鸟再也不能飞翔。抓牢你的梦想,因为如果失去梦想,生命就成了一块覆盖着冰雪的贫瘠的冻土。亲爱的朋友们,想想那些过去的或已经死去的梦想吧。不管是什么,重新将它捡起,并从今天开始让它重生。
