To me March 28th was a lucky day.It was on that particular evening that I found myself at central stage, in the spotlight.Winning the “21st Century·Ericsson Cup” Seventh National English Speaking Competition is a memory that I shall treasure and one that will surely stay.More important than winning the Cup is the friendship that has been established and developed among the contestants, and the chance to communicate offstage in addition to competing onstage.Also the competition helps boost public speaking in China, a skill hitherto undervalued.For me, though, the competition is a more personal experience.Habitually shy, I had been reluctant to take part in any such activities.Encouraged by my

friends, however, I made a last-minute decision to give it a try.In the course of preparation I somehow rediscovered myself, a truer me.I found that, after all, I like communicating with other people;that exchanging views can be so much fun—and so much rewarding, both emotionally and intellectually;that public speaking is most effective when you are least guarded;and that it is essential to success in every walk of life.At a more practical level, I realized knowing what you are going to say and how you are going to say it are equally important.To take the original ideas out of your head and transplant them, so to speak, to that of others, you need to have an organized mind.This ability improves with training.Yet there should not be any loss or addition or distortion in the process.Those ideas that finally find their way into another head need to be recognizably yours.Language is a means to transmit information, not a means to obstruct communication.It should be lucid to be penetrating.In China, certain public speaking skills have been unduly emphasized.Will it really help, we are compelled to ask, to bang at the podium or yell at the top of your lungs, if you have come with a poorly organized speech, a muddled mind, and unwillingness to truly share your views? Above all, the single most important thing I learnt was that as a public speaker, you need to pay attention, first and foremost, to the content of your speech.And second, the structure of your speech: how one idea relates and progresses to another.Only after these come delivery and non-verbal communication: speed control, platform manner, and so on.Pronunciation is important, yet of greater importance is this: Is your language competent enough to express your ideas exactly the way you intend them to be understood? I was informed afterwards that I was chosen to be the winner for my “appropriately worded speech, excellent presence and quick-witted response”.In so remarking, the judges clearly showed their preference: they come to listen for meaningful ideas, not for loose judgments, nor easy laughters.Some contestants failed to address their questions head on.Some were able to, but did not know where to stop—the dragging on betrayed their lack of confidence.The root cause was that they did not listen attentively to the questions.Or they were thinking of what they had prepared.As I said in my speech, “It is vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking...to take them [issues like globalization] on and give them honest thinking is the first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way”.We need to respond honestly.A competition like this draws talented students from all over the country.And of course, I learnt more things than just about public speaking.Since in the final analysis, public speaking is all about effective communication.And this goes true for all communications, whatever their setting.And the following is the final version of my speech: GLOBALIZATION:

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES FOR CHINA'S YOUNGER GENERATION Thirty years ago, American President Richard Nixon made an epoch-making visit to China, a country still isolated at that time.Premier Zhou Enlai said to him, “Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world—twenty-five years of no communication”.Thirty years since, China and America have exchanged many handshakes.The fundamental implication of this example is that the need to communicate across differences in culture and ideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations as well.As we can see today, environmentalists from different countries are making joint efforts to address the issue of global warming, economists are seeking solutions to financial crises that rage in a particular region but nonetheless cripple the world economy, and politicians and diplomats are getting together to discuss the issue of combating terrorism.Peace and prosperity has become a common goal that we are striving for all over the world.Underlying this mighty trend of global communication is the echo of E.M.Forster's words “Only connect!” With the IT revolution, traditional boundaries of human society fall away.Our culture, politics, society and commerce are being sloshed into one large melting pot of humanity.In this interlinked world, there are no outsiders, for a disturbance in one place is likely to impact other parts of the globe.We have begun to realize that a world divided cannot endure.China is now actively integrating into the world.Our recent entry to the WTO is a good example.For decades, we have taken pride in being self-reliant, but now we realize the importance of participating in and contributing to a broader economic order.From a precarious role in the world arena to our present WTO membership, we have come a long way.But what does the way ahead look like? In some parts of the world people are demonstrating against globalization.Are they justified, then, in criticizing the globalizing world? Instead of narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor, they say, globalization enables the developed nations to swallow the developing nations' wealth in debts and interest.Globalization, they argue, should be about a common interest in every other nation's economic health.We are reminded by Karl Marx that capital goes beyond national borders and eludes control from any other entity.This has become a reality.Multinational corporations are seeking the lowest cost, the largest market, and the most favourable policy.They are often powerful lobbyists in government decision-making, ruthless expansionists in the global market and a devastating presence to local businesses.For China, still more challenges exist.How are we going to ensure a smooth transition from the planned economy to a market-based one? How to construct a legal system that is sound enough and broad enough to respond to the needs of a dynamic society? How to maintain our cultural identity in an increasingly homogeneous world? And how to define greatness in our rise as a peace-loving nation? Globalization entails questions that concern us all.Like many young people my age in China, I want to see my country get prosperous and enjoy respect in the international community.But it seems to me that mere patriotism is not just enough.It is vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking and broaden our mind to bigger issues.There might never be easy answers to those issues such as globalization, but to take them on and give them honest thinking is the first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way.This is also one of the thoughts that came to me while preparing this speech.

第二篇：英语演讲

How many people know to jump nobody signs action?(Such this.)We know, in recent years this dance is very popular.now let me

Introduce the song.it Inherited “me” and “the most classic of both hot period of American music, restore ancient ways elements of culture and the English hackberrya Motown style perfect fit in, create a” nobody street.The choreography is usual Wonder showed Girls relaxed active stage style, easy toxic.After the nobody “

slow, the tango, guitar and Korea etc.Various English version emerge in endlessly.Girls not only Wonder in Korea, dominated the awards ceremony, with English ”nobody in the United States, and the first appearance on the bulletin board list every toradio of 76.These are becoming a global Wonder that Girls, on to the first family Obama and from the Philippines, down to a prison enthusiasts, the song of love.The emerging online video imitation and detonated a network of panic, “nobody.The Girls of Wonder nobody ”is a Korean pop the magic of music.In China, you can be heard everywhere, seeing all this song in the dance.This is also our today's theme: when speaking to South Korean pop storm comes, are you ready?

有多少人会跳nobody的招牌动作呢？像这样(表演动作)继承了《tell me》和《so hot》时期最为经典的复古元素，深受美国音乐文化影响的朴镇英又将Motown风格完美的融入其中，打造出了《nobody》这一名曲。编舞也一如既往的展现了Wonder Girls清爽活泼的舞台风格，简单易懂中毒性极强。

之后，《nobody》的慢版、探戈版、吉他版和韩中英语等各种版本层出不穷。Wonder Girls不仅在韩国内，横扫各大颁奖典礼，还凭借英文版《nobody》在美国初次登台，并一举登上了美国公告牌榜最热单曲的76位。这些都表明Wonder Girls红遍了全球，上至美国第一家庭的奥巴马母女，下至来自菲律宾某监狱的发烧友们，都对这首歌喜爱有加。不断涌现的网友模仿视频也引爆了网络，掀起了《nobody》的狂潮，持续至今。Wonder Girls的这首《nobody》可谓是韩国乐坛的一首的神奇之曲。在中国，你到处都可以听到这首歌，看到大家在跳。这也正是我们今天的要讲的主题：当韩潮来临时，你准备好了吗？

Not only dancing,what most popular in China for many years is Korean dramas.Believe that you have seen many Korean dramas, especially girls.Why han drama so attractive? I think it because it fit many people imagine, beautiful actress and rich childe romantic love story caused the female audience's endless longing.China ocean university professor JinLongFan tells us a funny thing: “once asked han students learn other languages, why don't you learn Korean? The answer is, because like han drama so intellect.Then I said, see dubbed or subtitles not ok? Why must learn Korean students? Then smiled answered and said to them, a personal experience in the south Korean dramas.It seems that mass culture of Korean triggered concern is not argue that already.”

不仅有舞蹈，在中国流行了很多年的韩剧。相信大家都看过很多韩剧，尤其是女孩子。为什么韩剧这么吸引人呢？我觉得很多因为它满足很多人的想象，美丽的女主角和富家公子的浪漫爱情故事引起广大女性观众的无限憧憬。中国海洋大学教授金龙范给我们讲了一段有趣的事情：“曾经问汉族学生，为什么不学其他语言而学韩国语？回答竟然是，因为喜欢韩剧所以才学。后来我又反问道，看译制片或字幕不就可以了吗？为什么一定要学韩国语？这时，学生们笑着回答说，想融入其中，切身感受一下韩剧。看来，韩国的大众文化触发了对韩国语的关注已是不可争辩的事实。”

South Korean star's influence has gone up rapidly in recent years, the media has breath more in star signed exclusive agency of 14 Korean.For the foreseeable future, the south Korean star will be further into our life.Entertainment,这也导致了韩国明星影响力在中国的飙升，有的星传媒更于日前一口气签下了十四位韩星的独家代理权。可以预见的是，韩国明星未来将进一步介入我们的娱乐生活。

Korean dramas and south Korean star, also brought the Korean beauty industry development in China.I think the blossom in China is Korea's beauty.I think the blossom in China is Korea's beauty.It also raises a tornado in China.I think this is because our native culture begins to release society beauty, the consciousness of chung Internet technology support and sow han drama, Korean stars and also because our country started business in China market, created beauty on the earth, a sunrise industry-plastic industry are formed, and quickly and quietly.Keen to change the appearance of the acquired through those who believe that not only can let yourself get cosmetic beautiful appearance can also help a successful career, such as “China's first man-made beauty” HaoLuLu, Korean star Kim hee-sun, won bin, etc., all looked after by Peugeot features of popular cosmetic..韩剧和韩国明星的引入，也带来了韩国美容业在中国的发展。我想在中国遍地开花的是韩国的美容业。它也同样在中国掀起了一阵旋风。我想这是由于我国本土文化开始释放社会崇美意识，互联网的技术支撑和韩剧热播和韩国明星走红，也由于我国商界开始支撑造美市场，在中国大地上,一个朝阳产业——整形美容业正在被悄然推动，并迅速形成热潮。热衷于通过后天努力改变外表的那些人相信，整容不仅可以让自己获得靓丽的外形还能帮助事业成功，如“中国第一人造美女”郝璐璐，韩国大牌明星金喜善、元斌、张东健等，一个个都凭借整容后标致的五官走红。

Of course, the lovely little also not in China, now the influence of melting and lovely Korean style has deep heart.And South Korea pickle, now a lot of cities in China have many Korean restaurant.It is of Japanese cuisine, refined, and civilization of the Chinese food,eating with material benefit and thick, taste and the long and grasp of of primitive simplicity, is rare delicacy wind.当然了，也少不了韩服在中国的影响，现在韩式甜美可爱的风格已经深人人心。还有韩国的泡菜，现在很多在中国的各个城市也有很多韩国料理店。它有日本料理的文明、雅致，又有中国菜的实惠与厚重，随吃法而变味道，采众长而秉古朴之风，实属不可多得的美味。

Today, I am not speaking to Korean culture is good or bad, just as an entertainment in Korean culture and talk to Chinese influence.Of course, I believe you are wise to choice , so, when the Korean pop storm you, are you ready? Accept or reject? Thank you!

今天，我不是来说韩国文化的好坏，只是作为一个娱乐在和大家谈论韩国文化对中国的影响。当然，我相信明智的你，因此，当韩国流行风暴向你袭来，你准备好了吗？接受或拒绝？谢谢！

第三篇：英语演讲

In September, 2008，the American subprime mortgage crisis which lasted more than one year gradually extended to the whole economy system to be an economy crisis all over the world.Its coming not only makes the Untied States face a series of economic problem，but also brings the economic market around the world a great shock: As a country，the Iceland has applied for the bankruptcy;Zimbabwe’s inflation has been out of control;Our neighbor，Korea，since its economic system gets closest to the United States，it suffers much more than other Asian countries in this economic storm.As for China, we are influenced a lot in this special year.A lot of factories in Guangdong and Fujian province suffered a lot: the difficulty in exporting, the workers were laid off，even made the factory break;A great number of students in universities also feel about the crisis, since it’s hard for them to find a job.However，as one of the newly developing countries in Asian countries，China has strict foreign exchange control and relatively independent financial system，which can help to reduce the influence that the crisis would bring.Although China is not an utopia in this storm，but we do worry less than the countries we referred to.Anyway，the new round of economic crisis has come.China，the powerful Titanic has to consider the crash the storm would bring.We should seize the opportunity and try our best to solve the problem.Only in this way can our journey to develop economy safe and harmonious.At last，I’d like to wish our country good luck.Let’s stand up from where we fall down

All the celebrations welcoming the new century were hold in the year 2000, because life without a greeting is like the sky without the sun.Greetings are very important for the whole world, in my opinion.But I don’t know whether greetings are enough for us.Especially when we meet with failures.I remember quite clearly that when I was a child, if I fall down and was on the brink of crying, my father always told me” Please stand up from where you fall down!”

Yes, we must stand up from where we fall down.That was a special mid night in 1993.Expectations filled our hearts.We stared at the TV, hoping excitedly as the voice would fly to our ears.But at last, each Chinese who loves our motherland was distressed to know the result: Beijing, lost to Sydney by a margin of two votes in the Olympic hosting competition.Eight years have past, but the frustration has not healed with time at all.Now, at the beginning of the new millennium, all of the pride and disappointment of the 20th century had gone with the wind.The 21st century, which is full of hope, longing and thought has come.Someone said, we would start from zero on.Should I really start from zero on?

No!I hold that we should go on with our efforts and ambitions stayed by last century, and make our life better.“New Beijing, great Olympics!” The voice cries this out around China’s capital, a 3,000-year-old city these days.Beijing, along with Paris, Istanbul, Osaka and Toronto, has been short listed by the International Olympic Committee as an official candidate city for the 2008 Olympic Games.Facing the new century, mankind is driven by the revolution of science and technology, world economy is undergoing broad and profound changes.But nobody can deny the fact that compared with developed nations, developing countries are confronted with more pressure and challenges.In order to become famous in the world, we must speed up our international economic restructuring to catch up with industrialized nations.Supporting Beijing’s bid is a systematic project that can support China’s development efforts.I believe recycled paper, clean fuel, sorted rubbish, water-saving and energy-efficient facilities will become reality in the coming years for China.I believe the new century is an era of learning and teaching, and lifelong education has become one of the main trends in the future development of Chinese society.I believe that, on July 13, our dream of Beijing’s Olympic bid will become true.Because to millions of Chinese, for China to have the global respect and support that she deserves is not just a dream.It is a part of our very souls.For we are not only equal members of our motherland, China, but we are also equal contributors to the world as a whole.Let us stand together, all nations in Beijing, in brotherhood, friendship and peace, in 2008 and forever!
