英语演讲稿1
I have a wonderful dream in my heart。 It's to speak English very well。Since English is everything for me。 English is my best friend.English is mysoul。 English is my power。 Without English,I'm nothing at all。 Nothing。 Now,Ican think in English,speak in English,and write in English. Some people thinkI'm an Indian。 Some people regard I'm a Pakistan. And some people even considerthat I'm an Egyptian. But if I could speak English as good as an American,myfuture would be brilliant. So I work very hard.

大家好,我今天演讲的题目是“我的梦想”。
每个人都有梦想,而且很好,我也不例外。我有一个小小的梦想,当我达到目标时,我会实现更多的梦想。开始,我还是个婴儿,一心想变得很强壮,像少林寺里的孩子一样,武功高强。但是我觉得离开父母去很远的地方练武,辛苦,有点舍不得。小时候,我有一个梦想,我希望我有钱。大人问:小姑娘,有了钱你打算怎么办?我要去买泡泡糖"如果你有很多钱?
我打算买很多泡泡糖。"如果你有钱花的话?我会买泡泡糖工厂。"天真的童年我们的确有一颗善良的心,幸福和快乐是同一首曲子。
慢慢进入小学,课程越来越深,知识越来越多。会感受到压力。现在我有一个梦想。我希望我没有;我每天没有很多作业要做。玩的有点剥夺,而我们40%的日子都禁锢在教室里,很多时间都在学习。但是在学习面前,是一种模糊的知识。俗话说,一种罕见的困惑。对事物的理解,从封建主义到资本主义,越大越觉得自己的观点是正确的。每天放学回家后忙了一天一夜的课,他又困又累,吃不到深夜吃的.食物。这样的生活很单调,可能有时候会想念我的很多小学同学,有时候会带着一节课或者一副朦胧的睡相。讨厌死板的校服,我从来不到处穿。周六,周日;时间很短,孩子很想磨炼,慢慢了解生活;太难了,努力吧,梦想好了,我会努力让每个人都生活起来,早起晚睡,把握住自己,不再松懈。我也想为他们的梦想而奋斗。
我的演讲结束了,谢谢!
英语演讲稿3
Everyone has their own dreams I am the same. But my dream is not a lawyer not a doctor not actors not even an industry.
Perhaps my dream big people will find it ridiculous but this has been my pursuit! My dream is to want to have a folk life! I want it to become a beautiful painting it is not only sharp colors but also the colors are bleak I do not rule out the painting is part of the black but I will treasure these bleak colors!
Not yet how about a colorful painting if not bleak add color how can it more prominent American? Life is like painting painting the bright red color represents life beautiful happy moments. Painting a bleak color represents life difficult unpleasant time. You may find a flat with a beautiful road is not very good yet but I do not think it will.
If a person lives flat then what is the point? Life is only a short few decades I want it to go Finally Each memory is a solid.
英语演讲稿4
good afternoon!
recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. the college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. but will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? will we be able to better the lives of others? will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?
the cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. but the cynics are wrong. the college students i see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. we help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
the cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. but again, the cynics are wrong. we care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
as college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. we all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. i believe in all my fellow classmates. though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. i believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. we are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. i believe in our future.

Almost everyone knows the famous Chinese saying:A young idler,an old beggar. Throughout history,we have seen many cases in which this saying has again and again proved to be true.
It goes without saying that the youth is the best time of life,during which one's mental and physical states are at their peaks. It takes relatively less time and pains to learn or accept new things in a world full of changes and rapid developments. In addition,one is less likely to be under great pressure from career,family and health problems when young. Therefore,a fresh mind plus enormous energy will ensure success in different aspects of life.
Of course,we all know:no pains,no gains. If we don't make every effort to make good use of the advantages youth brings us,it is impossible to achieve any goals. As students,we should now try our best to learn all the subjects well so that we can be well prepared for the challenges that we will face in the future.
英语演讲稿6
I dream of being a doctor.
My mother is a doctor. She always has to work extra hours and comes home late and tired. She has to go to the hospital immediately any time she is needed no matter how late it is at night. When I was very little and still in primary school I once asked her why she chose such a boring and hard . She answered with a smile “Yes I am sometimes very tired but seeing my patients getting better and better makes me happy from the bottom of my heart.”
As I grow up I gradually come to understand her words and realize doctors are noble. I made up my mind to be a doctor when I was in junior school and this has never changed since then.
I really hope to see a world where there is no cancer no Aids no fatal disease no one suffering from illness. But this is only a fantasy. What about the reality? There are still many many people who are faced with disastrous disease and suffering from constant pain. There are still many many people living in miserable condition and live miserably. There are still many many people dying of cancer and leaving the beautiful world reluctantly. All those things make me feel sad because I think everyone has the right to live . I want to help the sick and reduce their pain as much as I can. I want to bring a healthy body to the patients and save their lives as many as I can. I want to see people cured living happily with their families and friends after my treatment. So I want to be a doctor an angel in white.
When I become a doctor I will cherish each life regardless of the races sexes ages positions and occupations. I will do every bit to cure the incurable.
I already have a dream in my heartso I have to make every effort to realize it.As a high school student nowI will seize every chance to study hardarm myself with knowledge prepare myself for the future and strive for my dreams. I will be determined face the reality bravely and not surrender to any problems I meet.
Is’s like Gothe says“The important thing in life is to have a great aim and be determined to attain it.”Being a doctor is my dream. I think it is simple but meanful.

Miss Qin is my favorite teacher. She teaches us Chinese. She is lovely lady in her thirty-two years old. Her warm smile and black long hair are her symbols.
My classmates like her very much, because she is always kind to us. In my view, she is a wise teacher. She tells us many stories to us.
It seems she knows everything. Besides, she writes good articles. She tells us if we want to write good articles, we should read books as much as we can. She always cares much about us.
I think this is important for a good teacher.
英语演讲稿8
justice story: "impeachment" is attended "is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations." we know about the huston plan. we know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office. we know that there was absolute complete direction on september 3rd when the president indicated that a surreptitious entry had been made in dr. fielding's office, after having met with mr. ehrlichman and mr. young. "protect their rights." "rescue their liberties from violation."
the carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."4 beginning shortly after the watergate break-in and continuing to the present time, the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors. moreover, the president has made public announcements and assertions bearing on the watergate case, which the evidence will show he knew to be false. these assertions, false assertions, impeachable, those who misbehave. those who "behave amiss or betray the public trust."
james madison again at the constitutional convention: "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution." the constitution charges the president with the task of taking care that the laws be faithfully executed, and yet the president has counseled his aides to commit perjury, willfully disregard the secrecy of grand jury proceedings, conceal surreptitious entry, attempt to compromise a federal judge, while publicly displaying his cooperation with the processes of criminal justice. "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution."
if the impeachment provision in the constitution of the united states will not reach the offenses charged here, then perhaps that 18th-century constitution should be abandoned to a 20th-century paper shredder.
has the president committed offenses, and planned, and directed, and acquiesced in a course of conduct which the constitution will not tolerate? that's the question. we know that. we know the question. we should now forthwith proceed to answer the question. it is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.
i yield back the balance of my time, mr. Chairman.

尊敬的评委,同学们:
下午好!
最近,在我们的社会中有一场激烈的辩论。大学生是一种罕见特权的受益者,他们在特殊的地方接受特殊的教育。但是,我们能够面对挑战,战胜一切困难吗?我们能够改善他人的生活吗?我们能接受建设国家未来的责任吗?
愤世嫉俗者说,大学生是娇生惯养的失落的一代,他们会对最轻微的不适感到畏缩。但是愤世嫉俗者错了。我看到的大学生都在急切地学习如何独立生活。我们互相帮忙打扫宿舍,一起逛街砍价,兼职补充零花钱。
愤世嫉俗者说我们只关心成绩;我们忽视了性格培养的需要。但愤世嫉俗者又错了。我们彼此深切关怀,我们珍惜自由,我们珍惜正义,我们追求真理。上周,我的数千名同学进行了血型测试,以便为患有血癌的儿童做出贡献。
作为大学生,我们是处在人生关键转折点的`青少年。我们都面临着一个根本性的选择:犬儒主义还是信仰,每一个都将深刻地影响我们的未来,甚至我们国家的未来。我相信我所有的同学。虽然我们仍然没有经验,甚至有点幼稚。我相信我们有勇气和信念去迎接任何挑战,承担我们的责任。我们正准备承担新的责任和任务,并利用我们接受的教育使我们的世界变得更美好。我相信我们的未来。
英语演讲稿10
students are free but polite and they respect each other. they can leave at 4:00 every afternoon, or perhaps earlier. they have the freedom to organize time. they can go to the library, go to the lab, the computer rooms or the playground. they’re self-motivated and have a strong thirst for knowledge. and there are no frequent exams and rankings. students won’t be forced to wear uniforms everyday, and there is no required hair style. everyday is so colorful that they are looking forward to the next day when going to bed at night,
every teacher in this school can give a course as they like. there is no tedious rating, no scraps of quantitative management and no rigid standard. teachers can fully display their personality in class, and they feel very happy and content to teach. every morning, on thoughts of giving lessons, they are excited. after class, they are delighted , with smiles on their faces. some experts, scholars and masters are also visiting teachers in this school.yang zhenning can give physics classes for a day. yi zhongtian opens lectures on chinese culture for a week. speaking of music, we can ask wang lihong to give music lectures, just as he did in oxford university. if necessary, we can also invite david beckham to speak something about the world cup .
the principal of the school focuses on education rather than waste time in endless meetings and social activities. teachers’ wages are not high but enough to live comfortably. there are no other things to do except to teach. there are no paper requirements, no titles and no ranks because they don’t need to be judged by those things. almost every teacher is a well-known scholar and master in a particular field. a language teacher may be a writer at the same time. a math teacher may try to overcome a world-class guess. a physics teacher can win invention awards and a music teacher may return from an international music competition again.
in short, in this school, the principal is satisfied, the teachers are happy and the students are joyful. that’s my dream.
英语演讲稿11
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.
but one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the negro is still not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languishing in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. so we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.
in a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check which has come back marked "insufficient funds." but we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.
so we have come to cash this check -- a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
we have also come to this hallowed spot to remind america of the fierce urgency of now. this is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of god's children. now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.
英语演讲稿12
Good morning/afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. My topic is: faith does make a difference to our life.
The recent earthquake in Japan has triggered a series of unexpected crises and even faith crisis among us. Are the increasing natural disasters echoing the 20xx prediction by Maya? Is our future really so vulnerable and tentative? I am trying to probe the answer.
Last November, as a volunteer of the Global Sustainable Leaders Forum, I first came across the concept of social entrepreneurship. In the inspiring speeches, I saw the determination and faith of converting ideal into practice. I couldn’t help asking myself: what should I live for?
The great thinker Russell once put in his essay: Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.
By launching donation campaigns and bearing social responsibility, Bill Gates reshaped the stereotyped faith of businessmen.
Then, how can I make a difference? A talk with my father gave me some inspiration.
My father is a superfan of traditional Chinese calligraphy. When I was a kid, I had the faintest idea why I should practise routinely this form of art. It was terribly boring. But Dad said seriously: As a Chinese, we need to pass down and promote our rich culture. It is our responsibility.
Yang Lan, a well-known TV host once said: As a media worker, I want to track down the passage of time and history by conducting interviews. For me, the responsibility outweighs the occupation itself.
Far back to Confucius, who was once obscure and humble, undertook the seemingly hopeless task of building a harmonious society. But with his strong faith, hemade a change by spreading the seeds of wisdom.
The story about three craftsmen further illustrates the power of faith. When asked about their work, one said: I'm piling up the bricks. Another replied: I'm building the wall. The third responded: I'm designing a home for people. These three replies mirrored distinct insights toward work: Task, job, and undertaking.
In my university, students majoring in National Defence choose to devote their golden years to safeguarding our mother land. They have interpreted faith with their own dynamic youth.
My friends, musicians can not simply provide us with lyrical notes, but create melody to sooth our soul; Scientists can not merely invent machines, but utilize their wisdom to reshape our lifestyle; teachers can not just impart knowledge, but usher us to become a worthy person!
So, my dear friends, life without faith is just like music without melody, and world without color. We are who we choose to be. It is faith that’ll remove our fear about future and stretch the radius of our life. Let faith light up all our young dreams.
Thank you!

高中英语学科的高手历来都具备以下四大特征:
一、词汇量比一般学生大,语言知识(习惯用法)积累够多。
二、语法基础过硬,并且在阅读能中敏锐地发现语法知识和语言知识。
三、听说能力很强。
四、善于捕捉机会用英语表达自己,有良好的英语思维习惯。
英语是一门工具学科,其重点不在于要从老师那里学到多少有关英语的知识,而在于在老师的指导和帮助下,练就一套扎实过硬的听说读写能力和探究英语语言规律的能力。作为刚跨进高中大门的一年级的新生,不宜仅停留和满足于初中英语学习中所形成的一些学习方式。过去的学习方式需要发展、改进和完善。英语学习是在一系列活动中完成的。这些活动应该组成一个完整的系统。在构建自己的英语学习系统中,一定要从听、说、读和写四大技能方面考虑。
能听懂他人比较纯正的英语,不仅是英语考试的需要,也是同学们未来步入社会,施展才能所必需的技能。我们平时的听力训练不仅仅是在训练你的英语听力,其实它也是一种语感培养,充足的英语听力训练同时也会极大的有助于提高学习者的口语能力。鉴于同学们不可能自己抽出多少时间去听英语歌曲、看英文电影或者直接用英语与人口头交流,那么,充分利用好本年级统一的听力训练时间就显得尤其重要。在听力训练中,既要学会抓关键词,也要学会听懂完整的句子;既要学会听懂不同语音语调对语意的影响,也要学会听懂有失去爆破和连读现象的句子。有难度的听力训练试题最好是能在过了一段时间后,等到忘记得差不多时,有再听一次的机会。所以在做听力训练试题时,我建议同学们一律用铅笔做记号,对完答案、看完录音文字材料后再把铅笔痕迹察掉。
英语的口头表达能力虽然不是我们考试的必备能力,但它却是同学们将来所需要的最重要的,最实用的英语技能。一口流利的英语是每一个英语学习者所梦想达到的理想水平。重视口语能力的训练不仅对未来有重要意义,对提高同学们高中阶段的英语水平也有非常重要的意义。说英语就是运用英语。语言能力和语言知识,同许多其它能力和知识一样,只有通过运用,并且经常运用才会真正地学到手,学到家。英语是一门语言。语言是听出来的,是经过不断模仿后才能说出来的。高中生的英语口语能力要求,除了一般日常交际应答以外,还应该具备能连续表达含五个以上的句子。练就一口流畅的英语口语需要同学们抓住三个机会:一是课堂上老师为同学们提供的开口机会。二是课前演讲或者值日报告的机会。三是早读是个好机会。早读不应该总是停留在背单词、背课文这样的简单劳动中。单词不是用来背诵的。朗读单词的目的是要把单词的发音读准,并且能上口,读起来不勉强,不绕口。课文也不是用来背诵的。熟读课文是为了加深理解,巩固词汇知识和语法知识。既然口语能力那么重要,同学们不妨把背诵或者复述课文当成是口语表达或者演讲的准备呢?换句话说,把课文材料准备得再熟悉不过以后,来一次演讲展示,那且不美哉!真正的高英语水平绝不是看书看出来的,也不是做习题能做出来的,更不是听老师讲课能听出来的。早读期间通过不断模仿,放声吼叫,反复实践,你一定能快速提高自己的口语表达能力。
英语短文阅读的重要性不仅表现在高中英语考试中它的份量最大,而且还表现在英语短文是英语词汇知识和语法知识的载体方面。词汇量的扩大、词汇知识的丰富和句子表达的多样性光靠死记硬背是无法也不可能实现的。扩大词汇量、丰富自己的词汇知识和地道完美的表达自己只有依靠优良的阅读习惯。教材课文是精读材料,需要同学们读熟读透,直至能开口娓娓道来为止。课外阅读又叫泛读。高中英语新课标教材对高中前八个模块的学习有一个要求:课外阅读要完成30万单词的阅读量。也就是说:同学们需要每天有500到700个单词量的阅读。课外阅读也是运用语言的一种必不可少的形式。课外阅读不能停留在完成几道阅读理解试题或者完形填空试题。关键在尽量弄懂文章中的每一句话含义、长难句的`结构。留意你还不很熟悉的词汇、词汇知识和语法知识。还要去认真体会不同的英语句子在表达上的精确性。千万不要在一些你还不认识的,拼写怪诞,发音困难的生僻词汇上浪费时间和精力。
阅读能力,除词汇量大小以外,还包含阅读速度、长难句理解、和把握主题大意的能力。要会快速阅读,同学们必须学会一些阅读的技能:如:skimming(跳读)、scanning(扫读)和digesting(研读)。Skimming和scanning就是根据阅读任务在文中查找相关信息。Digesting主要是用来理解长难句、把握主题大意和作者意图以及猜测词义的技术。不仅要研读长难句结构,也还需要研读逻辑关系。
流畅的短文表达能力在很大程度上依赖于你的词汇量、词汇知识和句法知识。它们的积累在于平时的听、说和读的活动。写作表达能力中,你的英语句式的结构思维能力或者英语习惯思维能力会对表达能力有重要影响。这就需要同学们平时养成一个良好习惯:那就是总是试图用英语来表达出你眼睛所看到的,耳朵能听到的,身体能感受到的和你思想能想到的。除此之外,一篇优秀的短文还少不了三个要素:即结构,内容和语言。
一片结构完美的英文短文,尤其是说明文和议论文,往往有一个比较完优美的,诱人深入阅读的开头语。主题句是可从开头语中自然而然过度而来。你所程述的观点,一般都要用事实做论证,或者用具体方式方法来支持。巧妙的结论句往往能使文章锦上添花。
内容需要真实,合乎情理,能让人信服。文中不要有与主题无关的内容。
语言要尽可能是地道的,去汉语化的英语。要经常套用自己在阅读中、在课堂上学来句子结构去表达自己。要敢于尝试用比较复杂的句子结构和比较高级的词汇来使文章进一步美化。
听所读写四大技能并不是各自孤立的,也是相互作用和相互制约的。如果平时,只注重某一项技能的学习和训练,那是不可能成为一位真正的英语强手的。
任何一门学科都需要踏实的学习作风。外语也不例外。学外语的实主要表现在以下几个方面:
一、落实词汇、词汇知识和特殊句式的积累。落实词汇和词汇知识并不是反复背记词汇表中的单词。落实词汇、词汇知识以及特殊句式的最好办法是先探究后运用。一个词汇在经过七到八次在不同时间和不同的语境中运用后,它就是你的了。词汇知识和特殊句式也是一样。写作是运用,造句是运用,阅读,倾听和与他人用英语交流也是运用。借助词典进行造句练习,在造句中运用新学的词汇不失为一种行之有效的简单易行的方式。
二、落实课外阅读。每天坚持花半小时阅读一两篇短文。一要真正读懂。二要留意词汇运用。
三、落实早自习精读。每次有硬指标,死任务。
四、落实课内课外书面作业。简单的完成老师布置的作业量并不是落实。书面作业质的落实必须是在真正懂了、记住了的基础上又快又好的独立的、闭卷式的完成书面作业。对发现的漏洞和缺陷要采取补救措施。
五、落实自主探究的学习能力培养。学习中缺乏自主探究,不善于利用团队合作和与老师沟通是很多高中生在学习中存在的一种普遍想象。老师不是保姆,老师不可能把英语的词汇知识和英语的四大能力烹制成一道道佳肴后,一口一口地喂进学生的口中。老师的探究代替不了学生的探究。学习能力的培养主要是探究能力的培养。学会了探究,你才会在知识的大海中畅游。学会了探究,你才会成为终身学习者。英语学科的探究应该表现在对某一特定词汇在文中、在句中的用法和含义的探究,对长难句结构和含义的探究,对相关知识关联的探究,对作者意图、主题大意的探究,当然也包含对学法的探究。要探究知识,要有工具(词典以及各种手册等)的帮助,更要有团队的合作,还要有老师的帮助。团队合作可以让你取他人之长补自己之短,还可以集思广益,产生思想火花。常与老师沟通是可以使你更容易发现前进的方向,少走弯路。
总而言之,英语学习需要同学们从听说读写四大技能方面养成良好的学习习惯,坚持语言知识积累、精读、泛读、课内课外作业和自主探究五个方面的脚踏实地地勤奋努力,就能够比较轻松地完成高中英语的学习,为自己将来的远大理想奠定坚实的外语基础。

还有更多我喜欢做的。还有我想说的`。也许下次我可以告诉你更多。谢谢大家的倾听。
英语演讲稿15
now none of this is to say that social skills are unimportant, and i'm also not calling for the abolishing of teamwork at all. the same religions who send their sages off to lonely mountain tops also teach us love and trust. and the problems that we are facing today in fields like science and in economics are so vast and so complex that we are going to need armies of people coming together to solve them working together. but i am saying that the more freedom that we give introverts to be themselves, the more likely that they are to come up with their own unique solutions to these problems.
so now i'd like to share with you what's in my suitcase today. guess what? books. i have a suitcase full of books. here's margaret atwood, “cat's eye.“ here's a novel by milan kundera. and here's “the guide for the perplexed“ by maimonides. but these are not exactly my books. i brought these books with me because they were written by my grandfather's favorite authors.
my grandfather was a rabbi and he was a widower who lived alone in a small apartment in brooklyn that was my favorite place in the world when i was growing up, partly because it was filled with his very gentle, very courtly presence and partly because it was filled with books. i mean literally every table, every chair in this apartment had yielded its original function to now serve as a surface for swaying stacks of books. just like the rest of my family, my grandfather's favorite thing to do in the whole world was to read.
but he also loved his congregation, and you could feel this love in the sermons that he gave every week for the 62 years that he was a rabbi. he would takes the fruits of each week's reading and he would weave these intricate tapestries of ancient and humanist thought. and people would come from all over to hear him speak.
