yang lingyuan本篇是96年湖南省第二届非英语专业大学生英语演讲比赛团体二等奖获奖者之一的演讲辞。其中引用正、反两方面的事例来论述“真正的美不在外表,而在内心”这一观点的方法值得学习与借鉴。
it is human nature that all of us should
be fond of beauty. everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
today in china,with the rising of our
living standard, people’s requirement of beauty has been heightened
accordingly. some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes,
fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement
of their looks. but it seems to me,all
these are more or less confined to the
beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
in my opinion,we shouldn’t only pay
attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind
and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the
inner beauty. as we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there
is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although
the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more important.
this was confirmed by a famous russian writer in words much like this: “a
person is
not lovely for being beautiful but
beautiful for being lovely. “
here, i’d like to quote two typical
instances and i’m sure, my dear friends,from them you’ll find out what real
beauty is.
recently i learned from the radio an
unpleasant incident about a well known singer. she is very charming with a
sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song.”devotion of love”.
not long ago,she was invited to zhejiang province to give performance. the
moment she was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward. worse
still,after her request was satisfied, she didn’t begin to sing at once.
instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece. thus she kept
the audience waiting for half an hour. so when she at last showed up and
started to sing “devotion of love”,a man rose up from his seat and shouted at
her,”you don’t have any devotion of love. you are not qualified to sing this
song ! “hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with
her finger pointed at the man. at this time the whole audience burst into an
uproar.
how disappointed her keen listeners were
when they learned this! it is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful
image in the eyes of others.
now, i’m coming to another true story.
it’s about a poor, ordinary looking old woman. she was a widow without any
children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from
rubbish heaps. however,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively
and managed to bring them up. every day she labored from morning till night. in
order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them
in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood. she got so
weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
responsibility is a badge of honour for
youth
(96年“21世纪杯全国大学生英语演讲比赛”二等奖获得者,北京外国语大学徐义成)
facing this audience on the stage, i have
the exciting feeling of participating in the march of history, for what we are
facing today is more than a mere competition or contest. it is an assembly of
some of china’s most talented and motivated people, representatives of a
younger generation that are preparing themselves for the coming of a new
century.
i’m grateful that i’ve been given this
opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my
generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial
period for every one of us and for this nation as well.
though it is only within my power to tell
about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still
represents, i believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and
to all the people bred by the past 15 years.
in my elementary years, there was a
little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily
in her lessons.
the teacher asked me to help her, and it
was obvious that she expected a lot from me. but as a young boy, restless,
thoughtless, i always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy
myself.
one day before the final exam, she came
up to me and said, “could you please explain this to me? i want very much to do
better this time. “ i started explaining, and finished in a hurry. pretending
not to notice her still confused eyes, i ran off quickly. nat surprisingly, she
again did very badly in the exam. and two months later, at the beginning of the
new semester, word came of her death of blood cancer. no one ever knew about
the little task i failed to fulfill, but i couldn’t forgive myself. i simply
couldn’t forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, “why didn’t you do a little
more to help me, when it was so easy for you? why didn’t you understand a
little better the trust placed in you, so that i would not have to leave this
world in such pain and regret?” i was about eight or nine years old at that
time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for i began to
understand the word “responsibility” and to learn to always do my duties
faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on
me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance
which are the very foundation of human society.
later in my life, i continued to
experience many failures. but never again did i feel that regret which struck
me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that i
have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best
i can.
as i grew up, changed and improved by
this incident and many other similar ones, i began to perceive the changes
taking place around me and to find that society, in a way, was in its formative
years like myself. new buildings, new commodities and new fashions appear every
day.
new ideas, new information, new
technologies. people can talk with each other from any corner of the earth in a
matter of seconds. society is becoming more competitive.
words like individuality and creativity
are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and
efforts. such is the era in which this generation ,grows and matures.
such is the era in which this generation
will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it. yet in the
meantime, many problems still exist.
we learn that crimes take place in broad
daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting. we hear that there
are still about 1 million children in this country who can’t even afford to go
to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on
dinner parties and luxury cars.
we buy shoddy medicines, or merely
worthless junk in the name of medicines, that aggravate, rather than alleviate
our diseases since money, many people believe, is the most important thing in
the world that must be made, even at the expense of morality and
responsibility.
such an era, therefore, determines that
we are a generation with a keener sense of competition and efficiency and a
greater readiness to think critically and act creatively.
such an era, furthermore, demands, that
we are a generation with a clear perception of our historical responsibility
and an aggressive will to take action and solve the problems. history has long
been preparing these qualities in this generation and it is now calling us
forward to give testimony to our patriotism and heroism towards this nation and
all humanity. standing here now, i think of the past 15 years of my life as an
ordinary student. probably i’ll be an ordinary man for the rest of my life. but
this doesn’t discourage me any, for i know that with my sense of responsibility
and devoted efforts to always strive, for the best, it’s going to be a
meaningful and worthwhile life that i will be living.
standing here now, i think of the past 15
years of this nation, which has achieved greatness that inspired millions of
people of my age, most of whom will not attain fame or prestige and only a few
of whom will be remembered by posterity. but that doesn’t discourage us any,
because we know that the world watches, the world listens, the world is waiting
to see where this nation will be heading in a time of rich opportunities and
fierce competition.
i can’t ever forget that little girl in
my class who couldn’t had the same opportunities as any of us here to enjoy a
wonderful life today and a hopeful world tomorrow.
it is the sacred responsibility of this
generation to face up to the challenges of the new century and to devote our
sweat and blood, our wisdom and passion, to the historic cause of making this
nation a greater and happier land for every one of us.
we are not going to evade that
responsibility. we are going to let people down. and people, far and near, will
hear of us. frost will be brought to their backbones and tears to their eyes
when our stories are told and retold, so let us go forth, my fellow members of
this luckily chosen generation, and meet the new century in victory and glory.
knowing the consequences of choice
over the past spring festival, i got
involved in a family dispute. right before i got home, four satellite channels
of cctv were added to the 14 channels we had already had. in prime time at
night, they all had interesting shows. therefore, the five of us-my parents, my
sisters and i-had to argue over what to watch. finally, we agreed that we
should watch the “most interesting” programme... if we
could agree what that was.
however, all of us there remember that
for a long time after we had tv, there were only one or two channels available.
the increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance
of choice.
fifteen years ago we all dressed in one
style and in one colour. today, we select from a wide variety of designs and
shades.
i received a devastating blow to my
self-confidence in the first interview of my college years. i applied to be a
host in our student acting troupe and felt confident that i would be accepted.
but one of the panel members told me: “you seem inadequate and you are a little
vertically-challenged.” my life has never been the same since. i used bigger
heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my
lack of confidence. but no matter how hard i tried to look the part, there was
still something missing.
as president of english club, i organized
the rehearsal of snow white for an english party. unfortunately, we could not
find an actor to be the last dwarf. it had to be someone who was humorous by
nature and fluent in english. suddenly, all eyes turned to me, and i knew i
would have to be the dwarf. to my great surprise and delight, once on stage, i
was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full
use. as the dwarf, i was a big hit.
yes, each of us is only one among millions
of others, but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique.
cultivating our individuality will transform our lives, making of them a
kaleidoscope of new colors and textures.
a world deprived of diversity would be a
bland and boring place. the real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly, but
having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model
cool boy or a flawless charming girl.
given a choice, i would rather be ugly
than live in such a world. i’d rather be a genuine dwarf accompanying a snow
white than be a snow white among nothing but snow whites. i would rather be
myself. i would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more
diverse universe. please, be yourself.

4.为什么想读研,将来愿意从事的方向,读研时的打算
although i have broad interests in many
aspects and grasp the essential knowledge of the major, but i think at present,
i can do many things in a superficial level, but not be competent to do things
professionally owing to lack of ample knowledge and ability. so i think further
study is still urgent for me to realize self-value.
the major that i hope pursue for my further

and more important role in our modern society. and nowadays in china, with the
recognition by the government, our domestic integrated circuits industry is
growing rapidly and that may provide a lot of chances to us.

owns some history base, it is very good to me, i like this city.
today i’m very happy to be here to share
with you some of my thoughts on the topic of globalization. and first of all, i
would like to mention an event in our recent history.
thirty years ago, american president
richard nixon made an epoch-making visit to china, a country still isolated at
that time. premier zhou enlai said to him, "your handshake came over
the vastest ocean in the world - twenty-five years of no
communication." ever since then, china and america have exchanged many
handshakes of various kinds. the fundamental implication of this example is
that the need and desire to communicate across differences in culture and
ideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations as
well.
as we can see today, environmentalists from
different countries are making joint efforts to address the issue of global
warming, economists are seeking solutions to financial crises that rage in a
particular region but nonetheless cripple the world’s economy, and diplomats
and politicians are getting together to discuss the issue of combating
terrorism. peace and prosperity has become a common goal that we are striving
for all over the world. underlying this mighty trend of globalization is the
echo of e. m. forster’s words, "only connect!"
with the it revolution taking place,
traditional boundaries of human society fall away. our culture, politics,
society and commerce are being sloshed into a large melting pot of humanity. in
this interlinked world, there are no outsiders, for a disturbance in one place
is likely to impact other parts of the globe. we have begun to realize that a
world divided cannot endure.
china is now actively integrating into the
world. our recent entry to the wto is a good example. for decades, we have
taken pride in being self-reliant, but now we realize the importance of
participating in and contributing to a broader economic order. from the
precarious role in the world arena to our present wto membership, we have come
a long way.
but what does the way ahead look like? in
some parts of the world people are demonstrating against globalization. are they
justified then, in criticizing the globalizing world? instead of narrowing the
gap between the rich and the poor, they say, globalization enables developed
nations to swallow the developing nations’ wealth in debts and interest.
globalization, they argue, should be about an earnest interest in every other
nation’s economic health.
we are reminded by karl marx that capital
goes beyond national borders and eludes control from any other entity. this has
become a reality. multinational corporations are seeking the lowest cost, the
largest market, and the most favorable policy. they are often powerful
lobbyists in government decision-making, ruthless expansionists in the global
market place and a devastating presence to local businesses.
for china, still more challenges exist. how
are we going to ensure a smooth transition from the planned economy to a
market-based one? how to construct a legal system that is sound enough and
broad enough to respond to the needs of a dynamic society? how to maintain our
cultural identity in an increasingly homogeneous world? and how to define
greatness in our rise as a peace-loving nation? globalization entails questions
that concern us all.
like many young people my age in china, i
want to see my country get prosperous and enjoying respect in the international
community. but it seems to me that mere patriotism is not just enough. it is
vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking and broaden our
mind to bigger issues. and, there might never be easy answers to those issues
such as globalization, but to take them on and give them honest thinking is the
first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way.
and this is also one of the thoughts that came to me while preparing this speech.
thank you.
第四篇:《大学英语演讲稿范文》
《大学英语演讲稿范文》
i have been in university for about one
year. during my stay here, i came to realize that university life is like
drinking coke. we experience all tastes of life here, sour, sweet, bitter and
hot. i am from province, which is far away from here. i often miss my mum,
friends, and relatives in my hometown. however, i can’t see them very often. so
loneliness always keeps me company. i am sad that i can’t be there with them.
lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. with more free time,we
can do many more things besides study, such as joining societies clubs, and
taking part-time jobs. such activities not only make our life more colorful,
but also help us improve all kinds of skills. the university is a society
miniature, what we learn here will benefit our future life. our path in life
will not always be smooth. setbacks can’t be avoided. failing an important
exam, break up with boy or girl friend, or refused by a promising company, such
setbacks are likely to get us down. sometimes we fell so frustrated that we
even burst into tears. drinkin coke is wonderful, despite the undesirble
consequent hiccups. it’s bitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. and you’ll
even feel excited after gulping down a glass. a college experience is part of
growing up. we cry, smile, fall in love, get hurt, leave, learn and then we
become a better person. university life is like drinking coke. i’m experiencing
it. and i know, i enjoy it!
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 (= what will happen to) me.
when i come to this school, i told to
myself: this my near future, all starts here. following i will learn to become
a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has
independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge
right and wrong, has a perfect job.
once my teacher said :” you are not sewing,
you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your
thought, not craft.” i will put my personality with my interest and ability
into my study, during these process i will combine learning with doing. if i
can achieve this “future”, i think that i really grow up. and i deeply believe
kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.
how to say future? maybe it’s a nice wish. lets make up our
minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.
