三分钟英语演讲稿1 Never, Never Give Up We often hear people say, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities. In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have non chance of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day. Thank you ! 三分钟英语演讲稿2 Good afternoon everybody! Its my honor to speak here and I am very glad to share my topic with all of you. Today Id like to talk about “my dream”. I do not just have one dream, in fact, I have three. They are: a healthy life, a happy family and to travel my great country. I have always admired the long healthy life my grandparents have. They are older than 80 years of age and they are still alive and kicking! How do they do that!? My grandparents plant vegetables and grow rice themselves; even in their old age they still make food for themselves! I guess that is why they can remain healthy. More importantly they remain humble and never ask for too much from life. Perhaps that makes them common, but they live a happy life. My grandmother once told me this:” I do not want to live long, only long enough for some grand children to be running around in my house”. I want to live a long, healthy and happy life just as they have. Since my graduation from primary school, until now, every time on my birthday I make the samewish. I wish my parents will not fight anymore. I am not complaining that they gave me a bad childhood, they just fight so much! I am unhappy but that does not mean they do not love me. They do! They love me with all their heart. I love my parents also; I want them to live a happy life as well. I want to travel this great country of ours. I want to see the beauty of our country. I want to see the miracles that made this country great! I want to go from the east to west, from the north all the way down to the south! I have a dream, that one day I can travel and see my country with my family and friends! If that is not possible, seeing my country on my own is good enough also. If I can fulfill all three of my dreams in life, then God can take me away. I would be happy, and l would have lived a full and prosperous life. Thank you everyone for listening to my dreams. I thank you! 三分钟英语演讲稿3 first, i would like to say: to choose means to claim opportunities. i am a third-year english major. an important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. i can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. i can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in china. indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. i would love to work in such big cities as beijing or shanghai or shenzhen. i would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. i would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced. i would also love to put down roots in central and western china, which is underdeveloped, but holds reat potential. all of these sound good. but they are only possibilities. to those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, i would like to say: to choose means to accept challenge. to us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition. in the next century, competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins. with increasing international exchanges, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world. this is calling for a higher level of our personal development. fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage. but today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone. given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination. as we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important. as we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important. nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life. but it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions. economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health. to those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, i would like to say, to choose means to take responsibility. when we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: "its just my own business. " as policy makers of the next century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us. the traditional chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family. to me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programmes. rather, it is the whole of the human family. as i am making my choices, i will not forget the smile of my teacher when i correctly spelled out the word "china" for the first time, i will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of jiangxi province. i will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in bosnia, chechnya and somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty. all these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family. at different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective. now as i am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it can lead a peacefandprosperous life.。

英文演讲稿(优秀4篇)

英文演讲稿(优秀4篇)经典英语演讲文章篇一Good morning, ladies and gentemen.This is Li Hua from Senior Three. I’m here today to share with you a good lesson from an overseas Chinese student living in Germany. It is a true story.After years of hard work, this Chinese student graduated with amazing academic achievements. Everyone thought he was going to get a good job easily and have a bright future. But to his disappointment, he was not even allowed the chance for an interview! The third time he was turned down, he couldn’t help telephoning the company to ask why they didn’t want him. The answer was simple, “We don’t hire dishonest people in Germany.”What was wrong you might wonder? The truth is, shortly aften he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was easy to skip buying subway tickets. So, to save money, he often went without a ticket. As a result, he had been caught without a ticket in the subway three times.From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits by dishonest means, but the truth will come out sooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honest is the best policy.That’s all for my speech. Thank you!优秀的英语演讲稿篇二The judges dear colleagues:Everybody is good!I believe that not long ago the unit of organization training to everyone left a deep impression that are in high altitude timid to conquer yourself after the joy of encouragement and warm embracetogether to complete the project after the excited tears dribs and drabs are so vivid and real stayed in our memory forever.Flow through the sweat and tears we can understand the what?From the beginning my team is faced with many difficulties:older on average physical quality is bad the heart not neat team such as fragmented.。

i am very glad to be here to share my college life with you.Two years ago, i came into this city of and started my college life , themost memorable journey of my life. i was just a shy and little girl that time.all the things seemed fresh to me: new faces, large library and physics lab etc.i breathed the air of college greedily, i was curious about everything.the classgiven by the teachers are excellent.they provide us with information not onlyfrom our textbook but from other sources as well.i actively involved in studentunion and varies of association. but soon i realized that i do not make full useof my spare time ,so i got a part-time job to help a junior student with mathlessons besides,i also took part in activities concerning public welfare. wetaught the kids there who could not afford school, i was deeply touched by theireagerness to learn, the precious experience with the poorkids made me aware ofthe responsibility on the shoulders of us--future teachers. the enrichment ofexperience taught me the significance of modesty,responsibility,tolerance,andperseverance.and now i have been here two years. recalling to the two years, i think ihave to talk about one thing--learning. learn how to study independently, learnhow to get along with others, learn to love, learn to… oh, there are too muchthings we have to learn.comparing with senior high school, college is a rather different place.there aren’t so many people to watch you and guide you how to do something anymore, neither are there so many students who share with you one dream. incollege, you must think and study yourself, so you have to learn and practice tocontrol yourself.another relationship in college is friendship. my roommates have lived twoyears with me. in these years, they forgive my faults, crywith me, laugh withme, play with me… they always stand with me and support me, i have learned a lotfrom them. i love them all and treasure the friendship with them.in the next 2 years,i’ll try my best to and make great contributions tosociety!

During my stay here, I came torealize that university life is like drinking coke. We experience all tastes oflife here, sour, sweet, bitter and hot.I am from Province, which is far away from here. I often missmy Mum,friends, and relatives in my hometown. However, I can't see them very often. Soloneliness always keeps me company. I am sad that I can't be there withthem.Lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. With more freetime,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 societyminiature, 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 apromising company, such setbacks are likely to get us down. Sometimes we fell sofrustrated that we even burst into tears.Drinkin coke is wonderful, despite the undesirble consequent hiccups. It'sbitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. And you'll evenfeel excited aftergulping 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, Ienjoy it!2020年我的大学生活英语演讲稿(5)Time flies!Our freshmen have spent two months in our beautiful campus of ___ university. Every new beginning is a new can't expect anything to be thesame as our erent envirenment is a new are always curious with the things gh wecome from different placeswe have our own dream our own ambition our own themankind is sometimes so fragile that it can't withstand outside lure.Many students are the first time to be so far away form come to a foreigncity a foreign campus facing so many foreign but friendly ty of activities bringus fresh air and pleasant busy with study and work enriches our lifehelpingpreventing our homesick.Life in campus is different with that in elementary school and middle havemuch spare time dominated by our campus is just like another le from all cornersof our country come together to form a big e are tears as well as have troublesbut we are also learning to conquer become more and more brave and more and moreare no longer the little baby that will never grow up in our parents are growingup day by day.I love the life in our university.

2023年大学生英语演讲稿(精选4篇)

2023年大学生英语演讲稿(精选4篇)大学生英语演讲稿1Honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:It is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful Saturday morning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the English language.About a year and a half ago, I took part in my very first English Speech Contest. When I stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me, I could hardly speak. I stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling in vain for the right thing to say. My fears had paralyzed me.While my passion for English has never changed, I lost my courage to speak in public. When my professor again encouraged me to take part in this Competition, I said "no." I couldn’t endure yet another painful experience. He looked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. I will never forget his words. "Look," he said, "We all have our fears, and you have yours. You could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraidto ever play again. Running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. A winner is not one who never fails,but one who never quits."I spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. Then I made the bravest and wisest decision of my life: I would face my fears – and take part in the competition!here I am, once again standing before a microphone. My heart is beating fast, and my mouth is dry, but most importantly, I have faced my fears -- and that makes all the difference!Thank you.大学生英语演讲稿2亲爱的老师和同学们:下午好,我很高兴在这里发表演讲!这次,我我想谈谈英语。

2020经典英语演讲稿(4篇)far and away the most important holiday in china is spring festival, also known as the chinese new year. to the chinese people it is as important as christmas to people in the west. the dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late january to early february.to the ordinary chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar new year's day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. but the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the lantern festival, means the official end of the spring festival in many parts of the country.经典英语演讲稿:My Ideal Jobdifferent people have different career outlooks. some people want to become civil servants; some people hope to start their own business; some people dream of being freelancers, and so on.however, my ideal job is teaching. firstly, i’m told that teachers have a high income. with the high income, i can open a training school to help the children in poor families with their education. secondly, teachers always have summer and winter holidays, thus i will have more free time to relax myself. more importantly, teachers are angels to students, who can pass on the knowledge to students as well as help them develop their hobbies and interests. i can’t imagine how happy i will feel when i see my students become elites.in order to be a qualified teacher, i should read more books to acquire more knowledge, and train my patience and improve my communication and handwriting abilities.不同的人有着不同的职业愿景。

有些人想要做公务员,有的人想自己创业,有的人梦想成为自由职业者等等。

然而,我的理想是教书。

首先,我被告知老师的工资很高。

若有很高的工资,那我就能开个培训学校来帮助那些贫困家庭的孩子。

第二,老师有着寒暑假两个长假期,如此我将有时间放松。

更重要的是,对学生来说老师就是天使,传授孩子们知识帮助他们培养自己的兴趣爱好。

我无法想象如果我的学生都成为人才,我会多么的开心。

为了成为一名合格的老师,我会读更多的知识从中汲取更多知识,锻炼自己的耐心,提高自己的交际能力并提高自己的书写水平。

经典英语演讲稿:Money and Happinesswhat is happiness? if someone has a lot of money, does he really be happy? the two questions point out the relation about money and happiness. today, people treat money the first place in their life, they work hard for making money, because without money, one can’t do a lot of things, indeed, we need money. when people get married, the first thing they do is to get enough money to buy a house, money seems everything. while on my opinion, money can’t buy happiness, i see some guys who are not rich, but they live in a free way, they move everywhere they want, they feel happy. so happiness is from someone’s heart, it is nothing to do with money.什么是幸福?如果一个人有很多钱,他就很开心了吗?这两个问题指出了钱和幸福的关系。

今天,人们把金钱放在首位,他们努力工作来挣钱,因为没有钱,他就无法做很多事情,确实,我们需要钱。

当人们结婚的时候,他们首先要做的就是有足够的钱去买房子,钱看起来是一切。

然而在我看来,钱买不到幸福,我遇到过一些人,他们不富裕,但是他们活得自由,他们想搬到哪里就哪里,他们觉得很开心。

所以幸福是从一个人的心里发出来的,与金钱无关。

经典英语演讲稿范文the road to happinessit is a commonplace among moralists that you cannot get happiness by pursuing it. this is only true if you pursue it unwisely. gamblers at monte carlo are pursuing money, and most of them lose it instead, but there are other ways of pursuing money, which often succeed. so it is with happiness. if you pursue it by means of drink, you are forgetting the hangover. epicurus pursued it by living only in congenial society and eating only dry bread, supplemented by a little cheese on feast days. his method proved successful in his case, but he was a valetudinarian, and most people would need something more vigorous. for most people, the pursuit of happiness, unless supplemented in various ways, is too abstract and theoretical to be adequate as a personal rule of life. but i think that whatever personal rule of life you may choose it should not, except in rare and heroic cases, be incompatible with happiness. if you look around at the men and women whom you can call happy, you will see that they all have certain things in common.the most important of these things is an activity which at most gradually builds up something that you are glad to see coming into existence. women who take an instinctive pleasure in their children can get this kind of satisfaction out of bringing up a family. artists and authors and men of science get happiness in this way if their own work seems good to them. but there are many humbler forms of the same kind of pleasure. many men who spend their working life in the city devote their weekends to voluntary and unremunerated toil in their gardens, and when the spring comes, they experience all the joys of having created beauty. the whole subject of happiness has, in my opinion, been treated too solemnly.it had been thought that man cannot be happy without a theory of life or a religion. perhaps those who have been rendered unhappy by a bad theory may need a better theory to help them to recover, just as you may need a tonicwhen you have been ill. but when things are normal a man should be healthy without a tonic and happy without a theory. it is the simple things that really matter. if a man delights in his wife and children, has success in work, and finds pleasure in the alternation of day and night, spring and autumn, he will be happy whatever his philosophy may be. if, on the other hand, he finds his wife fateful, his children’s noise unendurable, and the office a nightmare; if in the daytime he longs for night, and at night sighs for the light of day, then what he needs is not a new philosophy but a new regimen--a different diet, or more exercise, or what not. man is an animal, and his happiness depends on his physiology more than he likes to think. this is a humble conclusion, but i cannot make myself disbelieve it. unhappy businessmen, i am convinced, would increase their happiness more by walking six miles every day than by any conceivable change of philosophy.thangk you.。
