Fame—Good or Evil When talking about fame , many people will list its advantages or disadvantages firstly.Very often ,people say that fame can bring celebrity and regards to one and more importantly ,it can help one attract public attention.While other people say that fame is evil for it can make one trapped in it and then destroy his life.However ,does fame itself do these good or bad stuffs ?Maybe our attitudes towards it make the differences.I want to tell you a story that I have known.One afternoon ,the owner of a suit was in a bad mood because he didn’t sell any suit in the whole day.A man went to the store.The owner saw that luck was on his side.He introduced suit carefully and hoped the man could take it.Disppointingly ,he knew that he may lose an opportunity to make a deal unless he use strategy to impress his customer.But he was tired and didn’t want to force the man to leave.As a result ,he passed his business card before the man got out of store.The man read the name printed on the card and said “Chars Walker ,you are the son of Chars.Your father was a good man.I believe you too.Please introduce the suit again.”Finally ,the owner made a big deal.He was so excited that he immediately called his father.His father told him peacefully that it was satisfactory that he had nothing to be left but good reputation.Of course ,every coin has two sides ,and so does fame.Only if we have right attitudes towards fame will we purchase good reputation in order to live a happy life.Fame brings us not only the attention of public but the distinguished reputation which can make the differences on later generations.Above all ,fame play a significant role in one’s life.That’s all what I want to say.Thanks for listening.

No One Can Be Perfect

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.Today I want to tell you a story about one of my friends, a lovely and smart girl who is always ready to help others.Being our grade leader, she is good at both work and study.In many people's opinion, she is excellent and perfect.But one day she told me she was gloomy and insecure.People around her considered her outstanding and flawless, thinking she could handle

everything.But the more she thought about herself, the more disappointed she became.She found that she was far from perfection.Last week, she didn’t do well in her French quiz, and the day before yesterday, she was late for a conference.She felt depressed and frustrated, because she failed to be a perfect girl without any mistakes.I was surprised to hear that for I thought she had every reason to be confident.However, the expectation of perfection has become a burden to her.I told her no one could be perfect and I suggested she find her own position.In fact, people are so eager to be perfect that they demand too muchof

themselves.They want to be special and unique, and they want to have no defects or weaknesses.However, we can never avoid mistakes and errors.It’s impossible for us to be a superman or a superwoman.No matter how successful we are, there are always some flaws.If we hold that everything should be perfect, we would be overcritical.My friend now has changed her attitude.She accepts her shortcomings but still keeps a positive outlook.She is even more active and doesn’t allow the mistakes to hinder her pursuit of excellence.And I think that’s the way we should be！That’s all.Thank you!

Nature--Overpopulation

What is nature? It's everything that exists in the world independently of people, such as pants and animals, earth and rocks, and the weather.Now more and more people are focusing on the nature.It is no doubt that the nature is important to every human being.No nature, no life.Because of the supplies of the nature, we have lived happily for a long time.And we started to gain every thing available from the nature.And this lasted so long a time.Today, people have discovered that the nature around is getting worse and worse.What is threatening the nature? Air and water pollution, overharvesting of plant and animal species, overpopulation and so on.Overpopulation is the biggest source of pollution.Let's take overpopulation as an example.What does overpopulation feel like? When we enter a crowded slum district.When the temperature is high and when the air is thick with dust and smoke.The streets are crowded with people.The streets seem alive with people.People eating.People washing.People talking.People sleeping.People visiting each other, arguing and screaming.People relieving themselves.People pushing their hands through the taxi windows, begging.People leading animals.People, people, people, people.As we drive slowly through the crowd, sounding the taxi's horn, the dust, heat, noise and cooking fires made it like a scene from hell!I admit, frightening.To the nature, overpopulation is a big problem.More people, more pollution.And the big population is threatening the nature every second.The rapid rise in world population is not creating problems only for the

developing countries.The whole world faces the problem that raw materials are being used up at an increasing rate and food production can not keep up with the population increase.People in rich countries make the heaviest demands on the world's resources, its food, fuel and land, and cause the most pollution.A baby born in the United States will use in his lifetime 30 times more of the world's resources than a baby born in India.Unless all the countries of the world take united action to deal with the

population explosion there will be more and more people fighting for a share of less and less land, food and fuel, and the future will bring poverty, misery and war to us all.For most of the developing countries, it is a good idea to control the population growth.For example, China has carried out birth control for years.And this plan has a great effect on the world population.If the population continues to increase, if the air and water continue to be

polluted, if we don't do something to protect wild-plant and wildlife species will be declining.Species and biological communities have difficulty adapting to change.Economic opportunities and the quality of life of future generations are also put at risk.By protecting nature, we protect ourselves.Let's unite together, hand in hand we stand all across the land.We can make this world in which to live.Hand in hand.Control the population growth.Take good care of our nature.Thanksgiving

The poet said: spring flowers to the door pushed open.I said: thanksgiving to the door pushed open the living.If you carefully listen to the voices of flowers, are everywhere harmonious life movements.Then, as a middle school student, how thanksgiving?

First thanksgiving their parents, because everyone's life is a continuation of the

parents of one blood, all of the parents gave us love, let us enjoy the human world of affection and happiness, therefore, we would like to thank the parents.Teachers are our growth（领路人）, are our friends, teachers care for us , their words and deeds, let us benefit for life, we pay for teachers efforts and sweat, we should thanksgiving teachers.Students study the lives of our fellow students to encourage each other, help each other, to jointly overcome difficulties and setbacks, the common taste of success and happiness learning, we should be grateful for every day and we accompanied the students.Thanks-giving-fighting, thanks-giving unlimited!Students and society thanksgiving!Let us always to the life caring and full of love and love!

Cherish the water

My dear Teachers，fellow students and friends,As we all know, the earth is a planet almost covered by water，and it is water made every thing on the earth lively．Water is also one of the important part of our environment．Though，is there really so much water for us to clean，to produce many things，to play with? how much water are there on the earth then?

Most of the water is in the oceans or locked away as ice．The largest volumes of fresh water are stored underground as groundwater，imagine there is only one barrel of water in the world，then there is only a spoon of it on the land，and the water we can use is only a drop of it．Now I have to remind all of you here that the single drop of water is never as Clean as before，it has been polluted severely by our human beings． Many human activities and their by-products have the potential to pollute water.Please have a look along the banks of the river, large and small industrial enterprises discharge dirty

water, tons of garbage were thrown into the river, the water contained so much that it can't clean itself.Compared with the dramatic development in many sides of Shanghai, the suzhou river has become a black point of the appearance of city.Fortunately, the government has control the situation now, we are happy to see some parts of the river has become clean again, and we even can find fish sometime.The unique earth is the only planet full of lives, the water is just like the blood in the active body, protecting water is saving ourselves.Not to waste a single drop of water, otherwise, the only drop of water we could keep in the future would be our tear!My dear friends, mankind still faces a great difficulty in solving the problems of the environment and development, and there is a grand task to perform and along way to go.The middle school students in China will always cooperate with the young people of the world to protect the environment.Dream

Good afternoon，boys and girls!

I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech!To begin with ,I want to pop a question.Does everybody dream a good dream last night? Actually ,Today I want to talk about dream with you.Of course, What I want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream about life.Every one has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us.Dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners,we can chart our course by them.With the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.With the dream, there is hope,With hope, we have the strength to fight.Life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always confort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead.So bear in mind your dream and never give up your dream easily.look into the great people’s experiences, you may find the truth that good dream makes a good one, because there is nothing like a dream to create the future and build up our body.Finally ,I would suggest.Have a dream in mind and keep pursuing on it.Try to use your time sensibly, do what you should do to make your dream come ture.Although it is a hard job to get to the top of your dreaming mountain, but as the saying says, “mountain’s high, but man makes the peak”.As long as we keep, we will finally fullfill it.

life

life isn't about keeping score.it's not about how many friends you have or how accepted you are.not about if you have plans this weekend or if you're alone.it isn't about who you're dating, who you used to date, how many people you've dated, or if you haven't beem with anyone at all.it isn't about who you have kissed.it's not about se-x.it isn't about who your family is or how much money they have or what kind of car you drive.or where you are sent to school.it's not about how beautiful or ugly you are.or what clothes you wear, what shoes you have on, or what kind of music you listen to.海量资料分享

it's not about if your hair is blonde, red, black, or brown or if your skin is too light or too dark.not about what grades you get, how smart you are, how smart everybody else thinks you are, or how smart standardized tests say you are.it's not about representing your whole being on a piece of pa-pe-r and seeing who will “accept the written you.”

life just isn't

but, life is about who you love and who you hurt.it's about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully.it's about keeping or betraying trust.it's about friendship, used as a sanctity or a weapon.it's about what you say and what you mean, maybe hurtful, maybe heartening.about starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip.it's about what judgments you paand why.and who your judgement arespread to.it's about who you've ignored with full control and intention.海量资料分享

it's about jealousy, fear, ignorance, and revenge.it's about carrying inner hate and love, letting it grow, and spreading it.but most of all, it's about using your life to touch or poison other people's hearts in such a way that could have never occurred alone.only you choose the way those hearts are affected, and those choices are what life's all about.以上是人生的。
