跟自己较劲 与命运抗争
老师、同学大家好：
今天我演讲的题目是跟自己较劲 与命运抗争。
有一种境界，令人惊艳，令人回味，令人追求，它可以造就时代的英雄，那就是跟自己较劲；
有一种境界，飘逸在浮云上，深埋在古垒下，它可以塑造灵魂的高尚，那就是与命运抗争。
忘不了，北方的天空还是繁星点点，母亲就已经起床准备去打工，而这时仅仅才凌晨两点;忘不了，母亲耳鬓的白发；更忘不了，母亲那粗糙的双手。
无论是小学，初中还是高中，我都告诫自己一定要记住一个字，那就是“忍”，不要轻易和同学发生矛盾，能忍则忍。因为我怕给父母添麻烦，我告诉自己，学校找家长那只有一个原因就是我要得到奖励，父母要得到荣誉。
在高中的校园的一块石碑上有《周易》里的一句话——天行健，君子以自强不息；地势坤，君子以厚德载物。
蓦然回首，寒窗十余载，衣带渐宽，终挥别六月，赢得硕果累累。一路风雨兼程，跨进许多人梦寐以求的大学。或许也算是有了一点成功，但人人都想成功，可成功女神并不垂青所有的人，但我坚信只要参与、尝试过，即使没有成功，我们的世界却不是一份平淡，不是一片空白。或许我们的确平凡得很，无一技之长，但我们可以通过尝试，用毅力化平淡为辉煌，化平凡成伟大。人能走多远，不要问双脚，要问意志；人能攀多高，不要问双手，要问志向。
常言道：能登上金字塔的生物只有两种—鹰和蜗牛。虽然我们不能像雄能鹰一样一飞冲天，但我们可以像蜗牛那样凭着自己的耐力默默前行。有志者事竟成，卧薪尝胆，三千越甲可吞吴；苦心人天不负，破釜沉舟，百二秦关终属楚。只要曾经付出了，即使失败了，这一生也会因这一路的风雨兼程而变得更加精彩！我们在风中在雨中自强不息，我们在雨中在风中展翅飞扬！
扪心自问，自己曾感叹过自己无法胜人一筹的家世，曾埋怨过父母与生俱来的寒酸，曾羡慕过富家子弟不可一世的骄纵，曾埋怨上天对自己的不公，曾想过放弃，想过随波逐流。但是，初中时的一位老师和我说过，沙漠中没有路，驼铃依旧在响；天上没有路，苍鹰依旧在飞。这也许让人感到意外，但其中却蕴涵着他们不屈的斗志，顽强与刚毅，只要你肯努力拼搏，一切皆有可能，意外的惊喜是由汗水泪水播撒出的果实。这句话我至今铭记，经过努力，终于在中考中脱颖而出，得以到清华、北大去励志，高中的学费也因此全免。从那以后我明白了，我们无需感叹、埋怨、羡慕，因为富家子弟虽然骄贵，却离不了父母的羽翼。“穷人的孩子早当家”，即使是单枪匹马也能驰骋沙场。“平静的湖面，练不出精悍的水手；安逸的生活，造不出时代的传人。”
高考后曾到饭店服务练自信，工地打工磨意志，忍受老板的责骂与顾客的白眼，经受着烈日的酷晒，一个假期下来人瘦了也变黑了，后背竟晒暴一层皮，拿到那仅有的几百元钱，我哭了，真的哭了。我发誓这样的日子我不要再过了，我告诫自己一定要自立、自强。我无法选择出身，但我可以选择自己的人生。因为唯有自立、自强，才能赢得尊严和权力，一个国家如此，一个民族如此，一个人也如此！任何时候都要把命运抓在自己手里，中国有句老话：“自己动手，丰衣足食。”进入大学后依然牢记自己的誓言，无论从是学生干部的工作还是普通学生的一员，我不敢保证自己所做的一定完美，但我却是用心去做了。很喜欢陶行知的一句话“滴自己的汗，吃自己的饭，自己的事情自己做，靠人，靠天，靠祖上，不算是好汉”。
常常提醒自己不要被习惯所掩盖，被时间所迷惑，被惰性所消磨。常常问自己，我对得起含辛茹苦的父母吗？对得起拿到的那些助学金吗？罗马并非一日建成，成功更非一蹴而就。为了自己，为了我所得到的，是时候该充实自己，完善自己了。
每个人都有一份属于自己的志向，也许远大、也许平凡。立志是成才的动力，能让我们为实现目标而艰苦奋斗，凭借坚忍不拔的信念屹立在成功的巅峰眺望远方。立志贵在坚持，立志贵在立大志！而立大志，莫过于立志成才，用涌泉来回报我们今天得到的照顾。我们不要抱怨遭遇的都是苦难，不要以为面临的都是挑战，反而我们要在逆境中付出超过常人几倍的辛勤努力，不惜挥汗如雨，因为在他们心中有一个强烈的愿望——我要证明自己！我要证明自己也能和所有人一样能自立自强。这就是属于我们的志向，很单纯也很直接，但是却是如此真实！那试问，我们能做到吗？还是继续说着空洞的言辞呢？ 身不饥寒，天不曾负我；碌碌无为，我何以对天！
今天我站在这里，不是来喊口号的，自信、自强、立志、成才，我会用自己的实际行动来证明。我们的未来，就需要我们自己牢牢将其把握在手中！
自立自强，我无所屈服，向今天的自我较劲。励志成才，我无所畏惧，向未来的命运抗争。志存高远，我无所保留，向成功的顶峰攀登！谢谢大家，我的演讲结束了。

第四篇：励志英文演讲稿
Winston Churchill's Iron Curtain Speech
Winston Churchill presented his Sinews of peace,(the Iron Curtain Speech), at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri on March 5, 1946.president McCluer, ladies and gentlemen, and last, but certainly not least, the president of the United States of America:
I am very glad indeed to come to Westminster College this afternoon, and I am complimented that you should give me a degree from an institution whose reputation has been so solidly established.The name “Westminster” somehow or other seems familiar to me.I feel as if I have heard of it before.Indeed now that I come to think of it, it was at Westminster that I received a very large part of my education in politics, dialectic, rhetoric, and one or two other things.In fact we have both been educated at the same, or similar, or, at any rate, kindred establishments.It is also an honor, ladies and gentlemen, perhaps almost unique, for a private visitor to be introduced to an academic audience by the president of the United States.Amid his heavy burdens, duties, and responsibilities--unsought but not recoiled from--the president has traveled a thousand miles to dignify and magnify our meeting here to-day and to give me an opportunity of addressing this kindred nation, as well as my own countrymen across the ocean, and perhaps some other countries too.The president has told you that it is his wish, as I am sure it is yours, that I should have full liberty to give my true and faithful counsel in these anxious and baffling times.I shall certainly avail myself of this freedom, and feel the more right to do so because any private ambitions I may have cherished in my younger days have been satisfied beyond my wildest dreams.Let me however make it clear that I have no official mission or status of any kind, and that I speak only for myself.There is nothing here but what you see.阅读了《励志英文演讲稿》本站编辑还为您推荐更多相关文章：演讲稿范文大全
I can therefore allow my mind, with the experience of a lifetime, to play over the problems which beset us on the morrow of our absolute victory in arms, and to try to make sure with what strength I have that what has gained with so much sacrifice and suffering shall be preserved for the future glory and safety of mankind.Ladies and gentlemen, the United States stands at this time at the pinnacle of world power.It is a solemn moment for the American Democracy.For with primacy in power is also joined an awe-inspiring accountability to the future.If you look around you, you must feel not only the sense of duty done but also you must feel anxiety lest you fall below the level of achievement.Opportunity is here and now, clear and shining for both our countries.To reject it or ignore it or fritter it away will bring upon us all the long reproaches of the after-time.It is necessary that the constancy of mind, persistency of purpose, and the grand simplicity of decision shall rule and guide the conduct of the English-speaking peoples in peace as they did in war.We must, and I believe we shall, prove ourselves equal to this severe requirement.president McCluer, when American military men approach some serious situation they are wont to write at the head of their directive the words “over-all strategic concept”.There is wisdom in this, as it leads to clarity of thought.What then is the over-all strategic concept which we should inscribe to-day? It is nothing less than the safety and welfare, the freedom and progress, of all the homes and families of all the men and women in all the lands.And here I speak particularly of the myriad cottage or apartment homes where the wage-earner strives amid the accidents and difficulties of life to guard his wife and children from privation and bring the family up the fear of the Lord, or upon ethical conceptions which often play their potent part.To give security to these countless homes, they must be shielded form two gaunt marauders, war and tyranny.We al know the frightful disturbance in which the ordinary family is plunged when the curse of war swoops down upon the bread-winner and those for whom he works and contrives.The awful ruin of Europe, with all its vanished glories, and of large parts of Asia glares us in the eyes.When the designs of wicked men or the aggressive urge of mighty States dissolve over large areas the frame of civilized society, humble folk are confronted with difficulties with which they cannot cope.For them is all distorted, all is broken, all is even ground to pulp.When I stand here this quiet afternoon I shudder to visualize what is actually happening to millions now and what is going to happen in this period when famine stalks the earth.None can compute what has been called “the unestimated sum of human pain”.Our supreme task and duty is to guard the homes of the common people from the horrors and miseries of another war.We are all agreed on that.Our American military colleagues, after having proclaimed their “over-all strategic concept” and computed available resources, always proceed to the next step--namely, the method.Here again there is widespread agreement.A world organization has already been erected for the prime purpose of preventing war.UNO, the successor of the League of Nations, with the decisive addition of the United States and all that that means, is already at work.We must make sure that its work is fruitful, that it is a reality and not a sham, that it is a force for action, and not merely a frothing of words, that it is a true temple of peace in which the shields of many nations can some day be hung up, and not merely a cockpit in a Tower of Babel.Before we cast away the solid assurances of national armaments for self-preservation we must be certain that our temple is built, not upon shifting sands or quagmires, but upon a rock.Anyone can see with his eyes open that our path will be difficult and also long, but if we persevere together as we did in the two world wars--though not, alas, in the interval between them--I cannot doubt that we shall achieve our common purpose in the end.I have, however, a definite and practical proposal to make for action.Courts and magistrates may be set up but they cannot function without sheriffs and constables.The United Nations Organization must immediately begin to be equipped with an international armed force.In such a matter we can only go step by step, but we must begin now.I propose that each of the powers and States should be invited to dedicate a certain number of air squadrons to the service of the world organization.These squadrons would be trained and prepared in their own countries, but would move around in rotation from one country to another.They would wear the uniforms of their own countries but with different badges.They would not be required to act against their own nation, but in other respects they would be directed by the world organization.This might be started on a modest scale and it would grow as confidence grew.I wished to see this done after the first world war, and I devoutly trust that it may be done forthwith.It would nevertheless, ladies and gentlemen, be wrong and imprudent to entrust the secret knowledge or experience of the atomic bomb, which the United States, great Britain, and Canada now share, to the world organization, while still in its infancy.It would be criminal madness to cast it adrift in this still agitated and un-united world.No one country has slept less well in their beds because this knowledge and the method and the raw materials to apply it, are present largely retained in American hands.I do not believe we should all have slept so soundly had the positions been reversed and some Communist or neo-Facist State monopolized for the time being these dread agencies.The fear of them alone might easily have been used to enforce totalitarian systems upon the free democratic world, with consequences appalling to human imagination.God has willed that this shall not be and we have at least a breathing space to set our world house in order before this peril has to be encountered: and even then, if no effort is spared, we should still possess so formidable a superiority as to impose effective deterrents upon its employment, or threat of employment, by others.Ultimately, when the essential brotherhood of man is truly embodied and expressed in a world organization with all the necessary practical safeguards to make it effective, these powers would naturally be confided to that world organizations.Now I come to the second of the two marauders, to the second danger which threatens the cottage homes, and the ordinary people--namely, tyranny.We cannot be blind to the fact that the liberties enjoyed by individual citizens throughout the United States and throughout the British Empire are not valid in a considerable number of countries, some of which are very powerful.In these States control is enforced upon the common people by various kinds of all-embracing police governments to a degree which is overwhelming and contrary to every principle of democracy.The power of the State is exercised without restraint, either by dictators or by compact oligarchies operating through a privileged party and a political police.It is not our duty at this time when difficulties are so numerous to interfere forcibly in the internal affairs of countries which we have not conquered in war.but we must never cease to proclaim in fearless tones the great principles of freedom and the rights of man which are the joint inheritance of the English-speaking world and which through Magna Carta, the Bill of rights, the Habeas Corpus, trial by jury, and the English common law find their most famous expression in the American Declaration of Independence.All this means that the people of any country have the right, and should have the power by constitutional action, by free unfettered elections, with secret ballot, to choose or change the character or form of government under which they dwell;that freedom of speech and thought should reign;that courts of justice, independent of the executive, unbiased by any party, should administer laws which have received the broad assent of large majorities or are consecrated by time and custom.Here are the title deeds of freedom which should lie in every cottage home.Here is the message of the British and American peoples to mankind.Let us preach what we practice--let us practice what we preach.though I have now stated the two great dangers which menace the home of the people, War and Tyranny, I have not yet spoken of poverty and privation which are in many cases the prevailing anxiety.But if the dangers of war and tyranny are removed, there is no doubt that science and cooperation can bring in the next few years, certainly in the next few decades, to the world, newly taught in the sharpening school of war, an expansion of material well-being beyond anything that has yet occurred in human experience.Now, at this sad and breathless moment, we are plunged in the hunger and distress which are the aftermath of our stupendous struggle;but this will pass and may pass quickly, and there is no reason except human folly or sub-human crime which should deny to all the nations the inauguration and enjoyment of an age of plenty.I have often used words which I learn fifty years ago from a great Irish-American orator, a friend of mine, Mr.Bourke Cockran, “There is enough for all.The earth is a generous mother;she will provide in plentiful abundance food for all her children if they will but cultivate her soil in justice and peace.” So far I feel that we are in full agreement.Now, while still pursing the method--the method of realizing our over-all strategic concept, I come to the crux of what I have traveled here to say.Neither the sure prevention of war, nor the continuous rise of world organization will be gained without what I have called the fraternal association of the English-speaking peoples.This means a special relationship between the British Commonwealth and Empire and the United States of America.Ladies and gentlemen, this is no time for generality, and I will venture to the precise.Fraternal association requires not only the growing friendship and mutual understanding between our two vast but kindred systems of society, but the continuance of the intimate relations between our military advisers, leading to common study of potential dangers, the similarity of weapons and manuals of instructions, and to the interchange of officers and cadets at technical colleges.It should carry with it the continuance of the present facilities for mutual security by the joint use of all Naval and Air Force bases in the possession of either country all over the world.This would perhaps double the mobility of the American Navy and Air Force.It would greatly expand that of the British Empire forces and it might well lead, if and as the world calms down, to important financial savings.Already we use together a large number of islands;more may well be entrusted to our joint care in the near future.the United States has already a permanent Defense Agreement with the Dominion of Canada, which is so devotedly attached to the British Commonwealth and the Empire.This Agreement is more effective than many of those which have been made under formal alliances.This principle should be extended to all the British Commonwealths with full reciprocity.Thus, whatever happens, and thus only, shall we be secure ourselves and able to works together for the high and simple causes that are dear to us and bode no ill to any.Eventually there may come--I feel eventually there will come--the principle of common citizenship, but that we may be content to leave to destiny, whose outstretched arm many of us can already clearly see.There is however an important question we must ask ourselves.Would a special relationship between the United States and the British Commonwealth be inconsistent with our over-riding loyalties to the World Organization? I reply that, on the contrary, it is probably the only means by which that organization will achieve its full stature and strength.There are already the special United States relations with Canada that I have just mentioned, and there are the relations between the United States and the South American Republics.We British have also our twenty years Treaty of Collaboration and Mutual Assistance with Soviet Russia.I agree with Mr.Bevin, the Foreign Secretary of Great Britain, that it might well be a fifty years treaty so far as we are concerned.We aim at nothing but mutual assistance and collaboration with Russia.The British have an alliance with portugal unbroken since the year 1384, and which produced fruitful results at a critical moment in the recent war.None of these clash with the general interest of a world agreement, or a world organization;on the contrary, they help it.“In my father's house are many mansions.” Special associations between members of the United Nations which have no aggressive point against any other country, which harbor no design incompatible with the Charter of the United Nations, far from being harmful, are beneficial and, as I believe, indispensable.I spoke earlier, ladies and gentlemen, of the Temple of peace.Workmen from all countries must build that temple.If two of the workmen know each other particularly well and are old friends, if their families are intermingled, if they have “faith in each other's purpose, hope in each other's future and charity towards each other's shortcomings”--to quote some good words I read here the other day--why cannot they work together at the common task as friends and partners? Why can they not share their tools and thus increase each other's working powers? Indeed they must do so or else the temple may not be built, or, being built, it may collapse, and we should all be proved again unteachable and have to go and try to learn again for a third time in a school of war incomparably more rigorous than that from which we have just been released.The dark ages may return, the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of science, and what might now shower immeasurable material blessings upon mankind, may even bring about its total destruction.Beware, I say;time may be short.Do not let us take the course of allowing events to drift along until it is too late.If there is to be a fraternal association of the kind of I have described, with all the strength and security which both our countries can derive from it, let us make sure that that great fact is known to the world, and that it plays its part in steadying and stabilizing the foundations of peace.There is the path of wisdom.prevention is better than the cure.A shadow has fallen upon the scenes so lately light by the Allied victory.Nobody knows what Soviet Russia and its Communist international organization intends to do in the immediate future, or what are the limits, if any, to their expansive and proselytizing tendencies.I have a strong admiration and regard for the valiant Russian people and for my wartime comrade, Marshall Stalin.There is deep sympathy and goodwill in Britain--and I doubt not here also--towards the peoples of all the Russias and a resolve to persevere through many differences and rebuffs in establishing lasting friendships.We understand the Russian need to be secure on her western frontiers by the removal of all possibility of German aggression.We welcome Russia to her rightful place among the leading nations of the world.We welcome her flag upon the seas.Above all, we welcome, or should welcome, constant, frequent and growing contacts between the Russian people and our own people on both sides of the Atlantic.It is my duty however, for I am sure you would wish me to state the facts as I see them to you.It is my duty to place before you certain facts about the present position in Europe.From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the Continent.Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe.Warsaw, Berlin, prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and, in some cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow.Athens alone--Greece with its immortal glories--is free to decide its future at an election under British, American and French observation.The Russian-dominated polish Government has been encouraged to make enormous and wrongful inroads upon Germany, and mass expulsions of millions of Germans on a scale grievous and undreamed-of are now taking place.The Communist parties, which were very small in all these Eastern States of Europe, have been raised to pre-eminence and power far beyond their numbers and are seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control.police governments are prevailing in nearly every case, and so far, except in Czechoslovakia, there is no true democracy.Turkey and persia are both profoundly alarmed and disturbed at the claims which are being made upon them and at the pressure being exerted by the Moscow Government.An attempt is being made by the Russians in Berlin to build up a quasi-Communist party in their zone of occupied Germany by showing special favors to groups of left-wing German leaders.At the end of the fighting last June, the American and British Armies withdrew westward, in accordance with an earlier agreement, to a depth at some points of 150 miles upon a front of nearly four hundred miles, in order to allow our Russian allies to occupy this vast expanse of territory which the Western Democracies had conquered.If no the Soviet Government tries, by separate action , to build up a pro-Communist Germany in their areas, this will cause new serious difficulties in the American and British zones, and will give the defeated Germans the power of putting themselves up to auction between the Soviets and the Western Democracies.Whatever conclusions may be drawn from these facts--and facts they are--this is certainly not the Liberated Europe we fought to build up.Nor is it one which contains the essentials of permanent peace.The safety of the world, ladies and gentlemen, requires a new unity in Europe, from which no nation should be permanently outcast.It is from the quarrels of the strong parent races in Europe that the world wars we have witnessed, or which occurred in former times, have sprung.Twice in our own lifetime we have seen the United States, against their wished and their traditions, against arguments, the force of which it is impossible not to comprehend, twice we have seen them drawn by irresistible forces, into these wars in time to secure the victory of the good cause, but only after frightful slaughter and devastation have occurred.Twice the United State has had to send several millions of its young men across the Atlantic to find the war;but now war can find any nation, wherever it may dwell between dusk and dawn.Surely we should work with conscious purpose for a grand pacification of Europe, within the structure of the United Nations and in accordance with our Charter.That I feel opens a course of policy of very great importance.In front of the iron curtain which lies across Europe are other causes for anxiety.In Italy the Communist party is seriously hampered by having to support the Communist-trained Marshal Tito's claims to former Italian territory at the head of the Adriatic.Nevertheless the future of Italy hangs in the balance.Again one cannot imagine a regenerated Europe without a strong France.All my public life I never last faith in her destiny, even in the darkest hours.I will not lose faith now.However, in a great number of countries, far from the Russian frontiers and throughout the world, Communist fifth columns are established and work in complete unity and absolute obedience to the directions they receive from the Communist center.Except in the British Commonwealth and in the United States where Communism is in its infancy, the Communist parties or fifth columns constitute a growing challenge and peril to Christian civilization.These are somber facts for anyone to have recite on the morrow a victory gained by so much splendid comradeship in arms and in the cause of freedom and democracy;but we should be most unwise not to face them squarely while time remains.The outlook is also anxious in the Far East and especially in Manchuria.The Agreement which was made at Yalta, to which I was a party, was extremely favorable to Soviet Russia, but it was made at a time when no one could say that the German war might no extend all through the summer and autumn of 1945 and when the Japanese war was expected by the best judges to last for a further 18 months from the end of the German war.In this country you all so well-informed about the Far East, and such devoted friends of China, that I do not need to expatiate on the situation there.I have, however, felt bound to portray the shadow which, alike in the west and in the east, falls upon the world.I was a minister at the time of the Versailles treaty and a close friend of Mr.Lloyd-George, who was the head of the British delegation at Versailles.I did not myself agree with many things that were done, but I have a very strong impression in my mind of that situation, and I find it painful to contrast it with that which prevails now.In those days there were high hopes and unbounded confidence that the wars were over and that the League of Nations would become all-powerful.I do not see or feel that same confidence or event he same hopes in the haggard world at the present time.On the other hand, ladies and gentlemen, I repulse the idea that a new war is inevitable;still more that it is imminent.It is because I am sure that our fortunes are still in our own hands and that we hold the power to save the future, that I feel the duty to speak out now that I have the occasion and the opportunity to do so.I do not believe that Soviet Russia desires war.What they desire is the fruits of war and the indefinite expansion of their power and doctrines.But what we have to consider here today while time remains, is the permanent prevention of war and the establishment of conditions of freedom and democracy as rapidly as possible in all countries.Our difficulties and dangers will not be removed by closing our eyes to them.They will not be removed by mere waiting to see what happens;nor will they be removed by a policy of appeasement.What is needed is a settlement, and the longer this is delayed, the more difficult it will be and the greater our dangers will become.From what I have seen of our Russian friends and Allies during the war, I am convinced that there is nothing for which they have less respect than for weakness, especially military weakness.For that reason the old doctrine of a balance of power is unsound.We cannot afford, if we can help it, to work on narrow margins, offering temptations to a trial of strength.If the Western Democracies stand together in strict adherence to the principles will be immense and no one is likely to molest them.If however they become divided of falter in their duty and if these all-important years are allowed to slip away then indeed catastrophe may overwhelm us all.Last time I saw it all coming and I cried aloud to my own fellow-countrymen and to the world, but no one paid any attention.Up till the year 1933 or even 1935, Germany might have been saved from the awful fate which has overtaken here and we might all have been spared the miseries Hitler let loose upon mankind.there never was a war in history easier to prevent by timely action than the one which has just desolated such great areas of the globe.It could have been prevented in my belief without the firing of a single shot, and Germany might be powerful, prosperous and honored today;but no one would listen and one by one we were all sucked into the awful whirlpool.We surely, ladies and gentlemen, I put it to you, surely, we must not let it happen again.This can only be achieved by reaching now, in 1946, by reaching a good understanding on all points with Russia under the general authority of the United Nations Organization and by the maintenance of that good understanding through many peaceful years, by the whole strength of the English-speaking world and all its connections.There is the solution which I respectfully offer to you in this Address to which I have given the title, “The Sinews of peace”.Let no man underrate the abiding power of the British Empire and Commonwealth.Because you see the 46 millions in our island harassed about their food supply, of which they only grow one half, even in war-time, or because we have difficulty in restarting our industries and export trade after six years of passionate war effort, do not suppose we shall not come through these dark years of privation as we have come through the glorious years of agony.Do not suppose that half a century from now you will not see 70 or 80 millions of Britons spread about the world united in defense of our traditions, and our way of life, and of the world causes which you and we espouse.If the population of the English-speaking Commonwealths be added to that of the United States with all that such co-operation implies in the air, on the sea, all over the globe and in science and in industry, and in moral force, there will be no quivering, precarious balance of power to offer its temptation to ambition or adventure.On the contrary there will be an overwhelming assurance of security.If we adhere faithfully to the Charter of the United Nations and walk forward in sedate and sober strength seeking no one's land or treasure, seeking to lay no arbitrary control upon the thoughts of men;if all British moral and material forces and convictions are joined with your own in fraternal association, the highroads of the future will be clear, not only for our time, but for a century to come.

1、yesterday is a memory tommorrow is a dream so live for todayjust do it right now.i believe if you can dream it you can make it ,ifyou do you will win if you dont you wont.believe in youself trustyouself try your best.dont give up ,never give in, never lose hope ,never say impossible.ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon!i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.today my topic is “youth”.i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.first i want to ask you some questions:
1、do you know what is youth?
2、how do you master your youth? youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind;it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.youth means a temperamental divdominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.nobody grows old merely by a number of years.we grow old by deserting our ideals.years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.worry , fear , self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living.in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courag can recognize;feel with your body and spirit, and see if you can sense the freshness in the air.yes, yes, yes, it’s a new day, it’s a different day, and it’s a bright day!and most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, abeginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level!in your mind’s eye, you can see clearly the things you want to have,the paces you intend to go, the relationships you desire to develop, and the positions you aspire to reach.you can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day wheneverything happens as you dream.you can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic momentstrikes.you can feel your face is getting red, your heart is beating fast, and your blood is rushing all over your body, to every single corner of your being!you know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and you will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facialexpressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, andasking new questions.you will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take.you will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life.you will never succumb to challenges of hardships.you will never waver in your pursuit of excellence.after all,you are the best, and you deserve the best!as your coach and friend, i can assure you the door to all the bestthings in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in yourhand.you must do your part, you must faithfully follow the plans you make and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must never fear.i know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out:i must do it!i can do it!i will do it!i will succeed!i must do it!i can do it!i will do it!i will succeed!i must do it!i can do it!i will do it!i will succeed!hello!ladies and gentlemen, it is so nice to meet you!i am gladthat you can spend this precious time having this class in thisafternoon.now please allow me to introduce myself to you.my name is wangjia and i majored in traffic engineering.baoji is my hometown it is verybeautiful.and the people are very friendly.as we all knowen thingking is easy acting is difficult and to putones thoughts into actions is the most difficult thing in the world.so if we want to learn english well ,we must practice reading englisheveryday ,acturally practicing repeatly is the best way to succeed.when you speak ,dont care how poorly or how well you speak just care aboutcatching the chance to speak ,enjoy losing face or just forget your face making mistakes because the more mistakes you make the more progress you will make.as a man living in the world ,we must try our best to makeeach day our masterpiece and dont let our parents down ,dont ever let our country down ,most importantly dont let ourself down.yesterday is a memory tommorrow is a dream so live for today in the world, i am sure that no one dare say he hasnt met any trouble all his life.so we must face failure.in fact, failure is not fearful,but important thing is how to face it correctly.facing failure, people will never take their fate lying down.they will try their best to work harder and harder until at last they succeed.not being courageous to face setbacks, people have no chance to enjoy the pleasure of success.so they have nothing to do but feel sad and empty all day and all night.in fact, they lose the chance of success themselves.my friend, whenever in trouble, please remember, failure is the mother of success.我们必须面对失败 我们都知道：“失败是成功之母。”但真正理解这句话的人却不多。我相信，世界上没有一个人敢说他一生中从没遇到过任何麻烦。因此，我们必须面对失败。其实，失败并不可怕，重要的是如何正确看待它。敢于面对失败，人们将不再由命运摆布。他们将全力以赴的辛勤工作，直到最后成功。不敢面对挫折，人们也就没有机会享受成功的喜悦。他们会无所事事，终日沮丧而空虚。事实上，是他们自己把成功的机会丧失了。朋友们，无论何时你遇到了困难，请记住：“失败是成功之母。”
twists and turns in life are unavoidable and are not always bad.we should have a more optimistic view on life and try to make the most of it and draw lessons from the bumps and turns along the way.挫折
生活中假如有任何一个因素可以促进成功，那就是从挫折中受益的能力。我所了解的每一次达到的成功都是因为那个人能够对挫折进行分析，在下一次工作中真正得益。假如混淆挫折和失败，你就注定会真正失败。因为不是挫折使你失败，而是你自己拒绝从挫折中看到成功的方向和勇气。挫折并不可耻。在每个取得成功的人的生活中，挫折是家常便饭。但你一定要能够面对挫折而不感到羞耻，能够分析它并了解失败的原因，否则挫折就是绝对的损失。换言之，挫折可以帮助解决它自身的起因。挫折不但可以为我们成功做好预备，而且没有任何东西可以在我们的内心激发起如此强烈的想要成功的欲望。假如你让一个婴儿抓住一根竿子，然后试着把竿子抽出来，孩子就会越抓越紧，直到他们整个重量都依附于此。每次你被击败的时候，正是这同样的反应会赋予你崭新的更为巨大的力量。假如你能够利用挫折带来的这种力量，你就能够用它来完成远远超乎你能力的目标。ideal is the beacon.without ideal , there is no secure direction;without direction , there is no life.(leo tolstoy , russian writer)理想是指路明灯。没有理想，就没有坚定的方向；没有方向，就没有生活。don“t part with your illusions.when they are gone you may still exist , but you have ceased to live.(mark twain , american writer)不要放弃你的幻想。当幻想没有了以后，你还可以生存，但是你虽生犹死。（(美国作家 马克·吐温)the honest man takes pains, and then enjoys pleasure.正直的人先经历痛苦，然后享受欢乐。
if you wait, all that happens is that you get older.如果你等待，发生的只是你变老。——larry mcmurtry to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.去奋斗，去追求，去发现，但不要放弃。篇二：英语励志演讲稿范文 英语励志演讲稿范文(一)ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon!i‘m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.today my topic is ―youth‖.i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.first i want to ask you some questions:

我很高兴可以在这个课堂上做一次演讲。这一次，我想谈谈英语。我的话题是我爱英语。正如每个人所知，英语在今天十分重要。它已经被应用到世界的各个角落。它已经成为商业上最为通用的一门语言并广泛的用于国际贸易。如果我们能说好英语，我们就有更多的机会成功。因为越来越多的人注意到这一点，学英语的人数正在已很高的速度增长。
但是对我而言，我学英语不仅仅因为它的重要性以及它的实用性，更是因为我喜爱英语。当我学英语时，我可以体会到一种不同的思维方式，它可以给我更多接触世界的空间。当我读英语小说时，我能感受到不同于阅读翻译文的快乐。当我说英语时，我可以感到自信。当我写英语时，我能够感到不同于汉语的那种美?? 我爱英语，它给了我一个色彩斑斓的梦。我希望有朝一日我可以畅游世界，用我流利的英语，我可以和世界各地的人交友。我能看到许多的名胜。我希望我能够到伦敦去，因为那里是英语的故乡。
我也希望用我流利的英语来将我们的名胜介绍给说英语的朋友，我希望他们可以像我们一样的爱我们的国家。
我知道，罗马不是一天筑成的。（成功需要日积月累。）我相信在持续不断的努力学习下，总有一天我可以拥有一口流利的英语。
如果你想被爱，你就应该学着去爱他人。所以我相信我对英语的爱定将换来它对我的爱。我相信总有一天我会实现我的梦！
谢谢！

青春是冲动的勇敢而不是懦弱,青春是挑战的欲望而不是安逸的生活。即使年过花甲,仍壮心不已.没有人痴长
百岁,而伴随着的是我们抛却幻想,锤炼生活的经历。
岁月让我们的皮肤起了皱纹,但缺乏激情会让我们的灵魂萎缩。焦虑、恐惧、缺乏自信则让心稽首，更让心灵 的青春尘封
无论60岁还是16岁，我们每个人都有着天生的好奇心、孩子般刨根追底不厌其烦的渴求欲望、幻想游戏人生 的生活方式。在你我心中有着心灵的默契：只要我们的心还能从人们的身上和大自然的怀抱中感受到美丽、希望、快乐、勇气和力量，那么我们依旧年轻无限。
当幻想破灭，而你愤世嫉俗，对生活充满悲观情绪，那么你已经老了。即使在20岁的时候，只要你积极乐观的追求你心中的幻想，一直到永远，那么你在80岁的时候仍有一颗永保青春的心。
