1、【英文演讲】英语演讲美文The Quality of Life Is Measured by Little Things Chen Huijun We each long to do something great with our life. But what is greatness? How can a person really make an impact on the world around them? How can we experience the quality of life? The definition of the quality of life may diff
2、er from person to person. The way for people to achieve a quality of life may vary from one another. However one thing is certain, the quality of life is measured by little things. Every day were called to do small things with great love. Thus claimed the U.S. President Gorge W. Bush in his inaugura
3、l speech. Through touching every little thing, Helen Keller knew the outer world, and longed for three days to see to emphasize sharply the values of life.And I still remember my childhood dream was to become a millionaire so I could bring about a happy life to my parents. But now it seems that by f
4、requent going back home, or a simple phone call to my family on a very ordinary day or a letter enclosed with a smiling picture of me makes thern even happier. How much greater difference can these little things make than a million yuan. The so-called little things are merely the causes of great thi
5、ngs; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of departure, which generally speaking, decides the whole future of the quality of life. To strengthen the relationship with my friends, I always wonder, how can it really work without our mutual understanding and support by communication.
6、 To show my sincere appreciation for my teacherspersistence in giving the lectures when they are ill, what can be better than extending a cup of tea to them during the break or a piece of greeting words. To fulfill my obligation to society, Id like to begin from giving my hands and showing my love t
7、o those in need. It is by studying the little things that we attain the great art of having a quality life. Life is long, but no matter how long it takes me to go, I should and will cover it little by little and reach the climax of my life at last, for I believe constant dripping wears away a stone.
8、 So enjoy your life by doing the little things, for little things are what inspire great things. Thank you! 点滴小事品味人生 陈惠军 在漫长的生命过程中，我们每个人都渴望着做一两件伟大的事情。但是什么样的事情才能算伟大呢？一个人的人生价值究竟能有多大呢？我们应如何去体味人生的价值呢？这，我们不得不承认，不同的人对人生价值有着不同的定义，不同的人获取人生价值的途径也不尽相同，但是，有一点却是肯定的：点滴小事体现人生。 美国总统乔治布什在他的就职演讲中说：每一天，我们都应饱含深情地去做好每一
9、件小事。作家海伦凯勒只能通过触摸生活中的每一种物品，来感觉和认识这个丰富多彩的外部世界，在她的文章假如给我三天光明中，她是多么渴望能得到光明去充分品味她的人生，哪怕只有三天！可是，这只是她的一个梦想，无法实现的。这使我想起我儿时的梦想：有朝一日自己能成为一个百万富翁，那样我就能让父母过上快乐幸福的生活。但是，现在我发现，经常回家看看自己日益年迈的父母，在很普通的日子给家里打个电话或捎封信回家并附上自己一张面带微笑的照片，也照样甚至更能让他们感觉到幸福和满足。是的，这些小事所起的作用甚至是一百万元钱也做不到的。 事实上，我们所说的小事恰好是那些伟大事情的萌芽和开端，是决定一个有意义人生的旅程和起
10、点。 我时常想，如果没有最为简单的交流沟通和最起码的理解与支持，我们就无法增进朋友之间的情谊；而对于那些有病在身但仍在坚持给学生上课的老师，课间如能为他们端上一杯清茶或递上一张问候的纸条，也能很好地表达出我们对老师的真诚和感激之情；要履行自己对社会的责任和义务，我们不妨从小事做起，从给那些需要帮助的人以援助之手和真爱之心开始。 也只有对点滴小事认真对待，我们才能获得一个真正有意义有价值的人生，因为点滴小事能焕发无穷光芒。路再长，也长不过我们的脚，水滴石穿，绳锯木断，只要我们脚踏实地一步一步向前走，我们定能达到人生的高峰。 让我们的生命从做好每件小事开始吧！因为伟大孕育其中！ 谢谢！ The E
11、arth,the only Home for Human beings Jiang Shengliang Dear friends, Good afternoon. Im very glad to see you here. The topic of my speech is “The Earth, The Only Home For The Human Beings. Do you know that dust storms had swept through North cities several times this spring? Dust has enveloped the sun
12、 and turned the sky an eerie yellow. People havent found a way to fight against the dust storms but to be in their homes and offices. Because a cloud of loess filled the whole sky, there were many traffic accidents, which loss in lives and property was beyond our estimates. We know that China alread
13、y produces 11 per cent of the worlds greenhousegas emissions. We also know that the Huanghe River once dried up, the grassland of Inner Mongolia rapidly turns into desert and there are many cities where the water we live by is lacking. We cant forget that more than 4000 people who lived in London ha
14、d been killed by thick black smog in the winter of 1952. We also are aware that nearly 50,000 species become extinct and 2.7 million acre lush, fertile cropland turns into barren land every year in the world. These numbers are so startling; the scenes are too horrible to look at! Of course, I am sur
15、e, everyone here like the blue sky and white clouds. There is no one who dislikes the clean river and verdant mountains extending a thousand li. We are eager to have a breath of fresh air freely. However, we have to deal with so much endless noise and breathe the air mixed up with dust. We have noth
16、ing to do but stride over so many sewage ditches. This is the earth, our only homeland we human live on. It is the earth that supplies us with enough food, water and oxygen. Its also the earth that supplies us with deep enough atmospheric layer in order to protect us from the hurt of ultraviolet ray
17、. Although the earth gives us all that she has, we still hurt her so deeply. She is covered all over with cuts and bruises. She is groaning and shedding tears. To our surprise, we human have been conscious that we will not survive if the earth remains to be hurt, but there is still so much sever def
18、orestation and damage to the grassland. We still waster raw materials, destroy forest for more arable land and don t save on water Wake up, wake up to reality. We have suffered so many heavy losses. Can t we come to realize our error? We must draw the lesson from them. We can t follow the same old r
19、oad to ruin, and we can t sit here and watch our only homethe earth turning into another Loulan. Today, I stand here and want to call out at the top of my voice: the development of economy needn t pay the cost of environment pollution. Please don t hurt our only home again. If the earth remains to b
20、e destroyed, if the land, water and atmosphere we lived by remains to be polluted, my dear friends, where will we go and live? So improving the environment is to save us human beings. Dear friends, let s begin to act now, act from us, act from trifles. I believe firmly that the earth will take on a
21、new look if everyone tries one s best to do it. My speech is over. Thank you! 译文： 地球，人类惟一的家园 亲爱的朋友： 下午好！很高兴在这儿见到你们。我今天演讲的题目是：地球，人类惟一的家园。 不知大家有没有听说，今年春天沙尘暴已多次席卷了北方的大部分城市。尘土遮天蔽日，人们不得不呆在办公室或家里。黄沙漫天，由此而造成的交通事故及损失更是无法估量。 我们知道现在中国排放出的温室气体已占全世界排放量的11；我们也知道黄河曾一度断流，内蒙古草原正在急剧沙漠化，各大城市的生活用水也变得越来越紧张；我们不会忘记1952年冬
22、天，伦敦有4000多市民死于一片浓黑的烟雾之中；我们还意识到世界上每年大约有5万种生物正在悄悄绝迹，270万英亩的青草繁茂的草原和肥沃的土地正在变成寸草不生的沙漠 触目惊心的数字，惨不忍睹的一幕幕，无不让人痛心！ 是的，我相信，在座的各位，没有谁不喜欢蓝天白云，没有谁不喜欢清澈见底的河水和绵延不绝翠绿的山脉，更是渴望能在纯净清新的空气中自由自在地呼吸。可是，每天我们不得不面对无休无止的噪音，呼吸着充满灰尘的毒气，小心地走过臭气熏天的污水地带 这就是地球我们人类所赖以生存的惟一的家园，是她供给我们生存所需的食物、水和氧气，是她提供给我们大气保护层，以免我们遭受紫外线的伤害地球，我们惟一的家园默默
23、地献出了她所有的一切，而我们却深深地伤害了她，遍体鳞伤的她正在痛苦地呻吟，正在伤心地流泪。更为可悲的是，我们人类明知伤害了她，明知伤害了她势必带来威胁自身生存的恶果，可是他们还在继续滥伐森林，乱垦草地；他们还不知道退耕还林，节约用水 醒醒吧，醒醒吧，难道惨痛的代价和血的教训还不能让我们清醒吗？我们不能重蹈历史的覆辙，我们不能让我们惟一的家园地球重演楼兰的一幕！在这里，我要大声呼吁：经济的发展并不一定要以破坏环境为代价，请不要再伤害我们的家！ 如果我们的生存环境再这样恶化下去的话，如果我们赖以生存的土壤、水和空气再这样被污染下去的话，同学们，我们人类将上哪才能找到我们的生存之地呢？所以拯救地球就
24、是拯救我们人类自己，就是拯救我们的未来。同学们，让我们行动起来，从我做起，从小事做起。我坚信，只要人人都伸出手，尽自己所能，我们定会重返那个鸟语花香、莺歌燕舞、生机盎然的美好家园！ 我的演讲完了，谢谢大家！ My Definition of Failure Mo Junhua SUCCESS. SUCCESS. Success is the catch-word of the times. It goes without saying that almost all of us want to be successful. Like it or not, however, we must ad
25、mit that it s not easy to achieve success. More often than not, we have to deal with its opposite, namely failure. But first of all, what is failure? It is hard to define, because dif-ferent people have different answers. However, as far as Im con-cerned, I think real failure is not to try hard. Its
26、 commendable that you set your mind on the best and con-stantly strive for it. At many times, however, its unlikely that youll do the best, because of the scarcity of No. 1 and because of the fact that the attainment of the very best involves many things, some of which are beyond your expectation. I
27、n addition to your own merit, that of your competitors also plays an important part. So it is a more sensible, but no less commendable thing for you to compete with yourself, not with others. You don t have to do best. But you should always try to do your best in whatever you are determined to do. I
28、f you have given it 100 percent, you are not a failure, even though you are outplayed by others. Because you have given it 100 percent, there s nothing to regret, nor is there any need to blame yourself. Instead, you should give credit to yourself for trying. I don t like finding excuses for our fai
29、lures, because we haven t failed at all. Take myself for example. Last year, I enrolled for the Sports Meet in my university and competed in the 3,000meter race. I did this not because I m gifted in or good at running, but because I wanted to fulfill a childhood dream. I had been an in-competent stu
30、dent of physical education or P.E., ever since I was a primary school student. As a weak student of P.E., I never got a chance to participate in a sports meet. I envied my classmates who were good at sports. I used to dream of becoming one of them and displaying my skills in a sports meet. After I e
31、ntered university, I spent much of my spare time on physical exercises, such as running, the long jump. Although I can run much faster than before, I m not capable of winning a prize or a good place in a campuswide run-ning competition. In spite of that, I still entered for the event, be-cause I wan
32、ted to challenge myself and fulfill my athletic dream. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not going in for this race. But I chose to accept the challenge and face the difficul-ties. I trained hard for the race, so when I came out last but one in the competition, I didn t call my
33、attempt a failure, because I had tried and struggled. Real failure is not to try hard. “I will forgive myself if I fail; I won t forgive myself if I dont try”, because “Its better to have fought and lost than not to fight at all”. Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic movement
34、 once said：“the most important thing in Olympic Games is not to win, but to take part, just like the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered, but to have fought well.” But what if we did fail in something? Simple. First, don t p
35、anic, because failure is not the end of the world. As the English saying goes, he who falls today may rise tomorrow. Second, try, try again, because nothing is really over until the moment we stop try-ing. So long as we persist and never give up, we will succeed eventually. No failure is sweet. Howe
36、ver, just as bitter medicine cures sickness, failure may prove to be very instructive, so long as we can put it in perspective. There is a saying that failure is the mother of success. Its natural for us to get depressed for a certain period of time, but we shouldnt inflate the importance of our tem
37、porary setback and be disheartened by setbacks, even never recover. We should be undaunted by failures and motivated to strive even harder to succeed. Real failure is not to try hard. It is my firm belief that ones earnest efforts will not be wasted. They will pay off either in other ways or at othe
38、r times. In this sense, todays failure prepares tomorrows triumph. At last, lets bear Goldsmiths remarks in mind：“Our greatest glory consists not in never falling, but rising every time we fall。” Thank you all! 译文： 失败之我见 莫俊华 SUCCESS。成功。成功是时代的流行语。不用说，几乎所有的人都渴望成功。然而，不管我们是否愿意，我们必须承认要获得成功并不是一件容易的事。更多的时候
39、，我们不得不面对成功的反面，即失败。 那么，什么是失败呢？很难一下子给失败下个定义，因为不同的人对这个问题会有不同的答案。然而，就我个人而言，我认为真正的失败是不去拼搏。 如果你立志做得最好，并且在不断地为这个目标努力，这当然是一件值得称赞的事。可是，在很多时候，要做得最好，对你来说是一件不太可能的事，因为只有一个第一，而且在追求最好的过程中会牵涉到很多因素，其中一些因素是你始料不及的。再说，除了你自身的实力外，你的竞争对手的情况也很重要。因此，一个更加明智但却同样值得称赞的做法，就是跟你自己竞争，而不是一味去跟别人比。你不必苛求凡事都做得最好，但是，在你下定决心要做什么事的时候，你就要尽自己
40、最大的努力去做。如果你已经尽力了，即使你没有别人做得好，你也不是失败者。因为你已经尽力了，也就没有什么遗憾，也就不必自责了。相反，你应该肯定自己勇于尝试。 我并不是想为我们的失败找借口，因为我们根本就没有失败。就拿我自己来说吧。去年，我报名参加了学校的运动会，我的项目是3000米长跑。我这么做，并不是因为我有长跑天赋或是我擅长长跑，而是因为我想实现一个儿时的梦想。从我上小学起，我的体育成绩就一直不合格，正因为体育不好，所以，我就一直没有机会参加学校的运动会。我非常羡慕那些擅长体育的同学，也常常梦想着自己能成为他们中的一员，在运动会上大显身手。上大学以后，我花了大部分空余时间在体育锻炼上，例如跑步、跳远等等。虽然我现在跑得比以前快多了，但是，我知道，要想在一个全校性的长跑比赛中得个奖或是拿个好名次，自己还是不可能的。尽管如此，我还是报名参赛了，因为我想挑战自己，实现自己的体育之梦。我原本可以置身事外，不参加这个比赛，轻轻松松地过日子。但是，我选择接受挑战，直面困难，而且为了那次比赛，我训练得很苦，汗水也流了很多很多。所以，尽管我是倒数第二名，我也不认为自己是一个失败者，因为我已经奋力拼搏过了。 真正的
