Unit 9ScriptsDoctors say anger can be an extremely harmful emotion, unless you know how to deal with it. They warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, losing control of themselves. But other people repress their anger; they cannot or will not express it.For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to aperson's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry the brain releases the same hormones that are produced during tense situations. They increase blood pressure, speed sugar into the blood, and narrow the blood vessels to the intestines. In general, the person feels excited and ready to act.Doctors said that repressing these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to many medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent these problems by letting the anger out. Recently, however, some doctors expressed a different 8新编基础医学英语听力部分view. They said that people who express anger repeatedly and violently became, in fact, more and not less angry, thus increasing the risk of medical problems.Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger intensely may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide how you want to handle your angry feelings. Letting your anger cool enables you to express yourself calmly and reasonably, in a more healthy way.Keys1. Keeping one's anger inside.2. Some blood vessels become narrowed.3. It is dangerous to express anger repeatedly or repress one's anger.4. Treat the anger properly.5. The dangers of anger and its solution.。

九英语第九单元作文Unit 9 English Composition。

Unit 9 of our English course has been an exciting and enriching experience. Throughout this unit, we have delved into various topics, expanding our vocabulary, improving our grammar, and enhancing our reading and writing skills. In this composition, I will share my thoughts and reflections on the different aspects of Unit 9.First and foremost, the vocabulary lessons in Unit 9 have been incredibly beneficial. We have learned a wide range of new words and phrases, allowing us to express ourselves more effectively in English. From everyday conversations to academic writing, the new vocabulary has equipped us with the tools to communicate confidently and fluently. In addition, the vocabulary exercises and quizzes have helped us reinforce our learning and commit the new words to memory.Moreover, the grammar lessons in Unit 9 have been particularly insightful. We have explored complex tenses, sentence structures, and punctuation rules, all of which have contributed to our overall language proficiency. By practicing grammar exercises and applying the rules in our writing assignments, we have honed our grammatical accuracy and precision. As a result, our sentences are now more coherent, and our ideas are conveyed with clarity.Furthermore, the reading materials in Unit 9 have exposed us to a variety of literary genres and writing styles. From fiction to non-fiction, from essays to short stories, we have analyzed and interpreted diverse texts, honing our comprehension and critical thinking skills. By engaging with the reading materials, we have broadened our perspectives and developed a deeper appreciation for the English language and literature.Lastly, the writing assignments in Unit 9 have allowed us to put our knowledge into practice. We have crafted essays, articles, and creative pieces, applying the vocabulary and grammar concepts we have learned. Throughpeer reviews and teacher feedback, we have refined our writing skills and learned to express our thoughts and ideas persuasively. The writing process has been both challenging and rewarding, pushing us to strive for excellence in our written communication.In conclusion, Unit 9 of our English course has been a comprehensive and enriching experience. From vocabulary expansion to grammar refinement, from reading analysis to writing practice, every aspect of this unit has contributed to our language development. As we move forward, we will continue to build upon the foundation laid in Unit 9, furthering our English proficiency and confidence. I am grateful for the knowledge and skills gained in this unit, and I look forward to applying them in future language endeavors.。

译文
准备和发表演讲 准备和发表你的第一次公开演讲会是一件令人 胆怯的事情。也许你会觉得决定讲什么,如何讲 很困难,或者,也许一想到要面对听众做演讲你 就吓得心惊胆战。确实,有些人天生就有在公众 前演讲的才能,但是好消息是,如果掌握一些有 用的技巧,任何人都能够写出和发表一个成功的前通过制定一些明确的目标,你便可以在演讲 之前就更加具备判断演讲的过程和成功的能力。 一个十分有趣的伴郎 的演讲可以使听众捧腹大笑,但是如果你没有对新娘和新娘呈上赞颂 之辞的话,那么你就已经失职了。
译文
通过设定明确的目标,你可以很好地定位来判定演讲成功的可能性。 现在就来准备做演讲。以下是提供给你的一些发表演讲的小贴士: —— 确保注意你的外貌形象。 —— 言语清楚,并且调整你的声音以便每个人都能够听到你的演讲。不要为 了提高声音而大声叫喊。 —— 在紧张的时候通常语速会变快,因此在演讲过程中要放松。 —— 有效利用的话,你在演讲中的一个停顿可以起到强调某个观点的作用, 或者使听众群有时间对演讲中一个事实、故事或笑话做出反应。 —— 与你的听众进行眼神的交流。这样有助于在演讲者和听众之间建立信任 和联系。 —— 不要手足无措,用手做出其它的紧张动作。 —— 不要始终把双手放在衣兜中。要有效地利用手势。 —— 做你自己;让自己的个性在演讲中体现出来。
译文
你的第一直觉可能就是:坐在那里,捏着笔,对着纸, 竭尽全力绞尽脑汁地想演讲稿的开头。不要这样。如果你 不是直接提笔写,而是先花一些时间仔细构思演讲,这样 你就会省去很多时间和精力,更不用说令人沮丧的重写。 经过充分的准备,你将会在问题和疑问出现前解决你的演 讲中的所有问题。演讲的内容,以及你如何来演讲,取决 于三个重要的因素:场合,听众群和演讲目的。

著名英语演讲稿(通用18篇)

著名英语演讲稿(通用18篇)著名英语篇1ladies 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!著名英语演讲稿篇2since the quality of honesty applies to all behaviors, one cannot refuse to consider factual information, for example, in an unbiased manner and still claim that one's knowledge, belief or position is an attempt to be truthful. such a belief is clearly a product of one's desires and simply has nothing to do with the human ability to know. basing one's positions on what one wants — rather than unbiased evidence gathering — is dishonest even when good intentions can be cited — after all even hitler could cite good intentions and intended glory for a select group of people. clearly then, an unbiased approach to the truth is a requirement of honesty.human beings are inherently biased about what they believe to be good due to individual tastes & backgrounds, but once one understands that a decidedly biased approach to what is true —is inherently dishonest, one can also understand how idealism and ideology have poorly served the quest for an honest, moral society. both honesty and morality require that we base our opinions about what is good — upon unbiased ideas of what is true — rather than vice versa(determining what is true based on what we feel is good) —the way all ideologies would have us believe.著名英语演讲稿篇3It’s beyond reproach that we will come across all kinds of difficulties andchallenges in our life time .Some will be subjected to frequent sadness .Somewill lose their way to moveon .Thus,only when we equip ourselves with hope andcourage can we finally succeed in the uncertain future.Forrest Gump showed so great courage in the movie that he touched me a lot. For one thing,no matter when and where Jenny got into trouble ,Forrest Gumpwould bring her out of it without thinking how dangerous the situation would be.Maybe we should all fell ashamed that we love ourselves more than we love love,but Forrest showed great courage in love .For another,Forrest gump risked hislife to save Bubba in the war.It’s courage that helped Forrest gain a series ofhonor after war .Forrest Gump is beautiful for his perseverance and touchesothers with his courage.A per son can’t do without courage in terms of love and friendship ,letalone life . A weak person may avoid the difficulties ,but a person with couragewill face up to it head-on. Therefore,let’equip ourselves with greatcourage.【参考译文】我们一生中遇到各种困难和挑战是无可指责的,有些人会经常悲伤,有些人将失去前进的道路,只有当我们有希望和勇气时,我们才能在不确定的将来取得成功。

What is the best way to begin my speech?
Your Audience: “Stop boring us to death! We don’t care if you are happy to be here; we don’t know you well enough to care yet. We already know your name and title; the person introducing you told us–we aren’t stupid!!! Stop talking about you, you, you. We don’t care about you at this stage of our relationship. Instead, tell us something interesting and relevant to us. We care about ourselves. If you address our needs, we’ll be more likely to pay attention to the rest of your speech!” (T. J. Walker)
Sample Opening Remarks
1) Thank you very much, Prof. Fawcett, for your very kind introduction. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and gentleman, Good morning! I consider it a great honor to be asked to speak about …on this session of our symposium. 2) Ladies and gentleman. It’s an honor to have the opportunity to address such a distinguished audience. 3) Mr. Chairman, thank you very much for your kind introduction. President, Distinguished colleagues, Ladies and gentleman, Good morning! 4) Good morning, everyone. I appreciate the opportunity to be with you today. I am here to talk to you about…

Beginning and Ending the Speech
Question for discussion
Do the speakers need to thank the audience or the host at the beginning of the speech? “ Thanks for giving me this opportunity to…”
A six-year-old collie lay battered and helpless by the side of the road. The car that hit her had broken her pelvis, dislocated her hip, and smashed her jaw. It had also blinded her, and she whimpered in pain and fear. Unfortunately, this true story happens much too frequently because of the growing problem of pet overpopulation. Having grown up on a farm with animals of all kinds, I care deeply about their welfare, and I have become aware through my veterinary courses of how serious the problem of pet overpopulation is.
Assignments
1. Read Chapter 14. 2. Group 5 prepares the mini-lecture on Chapter 14. 3. Group 1 prepares an informative speech on any topic by using the techniques for effective opening and ending mentioned in Chapter 9.
Identify the flaw(s) of the intro.
What tiny crystal fortified the coffers of many ancient empires and laid waste to others? What other mineral has the power to create and the power to destroy? What is good as gold when scarce and cheap as dirt when abundant? The answer to all of these questions is salt, the spice of life. Today I would like to look at the importance of salt in history, at how we spice up our lives with salt today, and at the role salt will probably play in the future.
How should I end my speech?
Your Audience: “Nothing is worse than a speaker who just quickly and abruptly finishes the last bullet point on a presentation and says ‘that’s-it-any-questionsthank-you-and-goodbye’ as they run off the stage. End with a purpose. End with finality in your voice. Don’t throw us off guard. Don’t be like a car that is going down the highway at 70 miles per hour and then suddenly runs out of gas. You don’t have to be funny or poignant, but at least re-state your main points, summarize, or ask us to do something. Leave us with one final thought—and that thought should NOT be that you are desperate to get out of the room!” (T.J. Walker)
In Today’s Session
1. Listen to the mini-lecture given by Group 4. 2. Discussion. 3. Do some exercises. 4. Watch clips of examples. 5. Listen to 2 speeches.
Soap operas
Are you an addict? Do you need a daily fix to keep going? Are you hooked on one of the modern college students’ most popular escapes from reality? I’m talking, of course, about soap operas. According to Newsweek magazine, students across the land are watching soap operas in record numbers. I don’t about you, but in my experience, getting a front-row seat for “The Young and the Restless” in the dorms or the Union is just as tough as getting a seat on the fifty-yard line for football or at center court of basketball!!!
