本篇是96年湖南省第二届非英语专业大学生英语演讲比赛团体二等奖获奖者之一的演讲辞。其中引用正、反两方面的事例来论述“真正的美不在外表，而在内心”这一观点的方法值得学习与借鉴。

It is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty.Everybody was born with a heart for beauty.Today in China,with the rising of our living standard, people's requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly.Some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks.But it seems to me,all

these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.In my opinion,we shouldn't only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty.As we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is 海量资料分享

much more important.This was confirmed by a famous Russian writer in words much like this: “A person is

not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely.”

Here, I'd like to quote two typical instances and I'm sure, my dear friends,from them you'll find out what real beauty is.Recently I learned from the radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer.She is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song.“Devotion of Love”.Not long ago,she was invited to Zhejiang Province to give performance.The moment she was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward.Worse still,after her request was satisfied, she didn't begin to sing at once.Instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece.Thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour.So when she at last showed up and started to sing “Devotion of Love”,a man rose up from his seat and shouted at her,“You don't have any devotion of love.You are not qualified to sing this song!”Hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man.At this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.How disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this!It is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.Now, I'm coming to another true story.It's about a poor, ordinary looking old woman.She was a widow without any children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps.However,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up.Every day she 海量资料分享

labored from morning till night.In order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood.She got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.When asked why she chose to burden herself with so many children,she smiled and simply answered,“Oh,I love children and I like to have their company.”

Though the old woman was poor materially, she was full of affection and rich in spirit.She was loved dearly by her children.She was also highly appreciated by the local government, and truly respected by people in her community.Maybe you can't help wondering, “What makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary?” It is nothing else but her inner beauty, her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding.What a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer]

So,to answer the question “What is real beauty?”, I declare definitely,it is the beauty lying in one's heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deeds,that is,the inner heauty!

第三篇：讲话：什么是真正的美

同学们，老师们：

早上好!今天我国旗下讲话的题目是“什么是真正的美?”

每次漫步在我们的校园里，都有这样感觉—气派的教室，宽阔的运动场，整洁的环境，处处给人一种美的享受。但是，我觉得这种美只是一种外在的美，是每个人都能感受到的，也是很容易就能做到的。其实，在我们的校园里，还有一种内在的美，不仔细观察，不用心体会，你是很难发现的。这种美就藏在我们每个人讲礼仪、学礼仪、用礼仪的过程中。比如：

上课专心听讲，积极举手发言是课堂礼仪中的美;

缓步靠右行走，从不大声喧哗是路队礼仪中的美;

认真完成作业，敢于质疑问难是学习礼仪中的美;

用心聆听发言，遵守会场秩序是集会礼仪中的美;

爱惜粮食餐具，不会挑食厌食是就餐礼仪中的美;

排队有序上车，关心帮助弱小是乘车礼仪中的美;

主动问候客人，举止文雅大方是交住礼仪中的美;

这种文明之美，礼仪之美体现的不仅仅是一个人的精神风貌，还是一个学校的良好形象，甚至是一个国家的整体素质。我们的祖国是一个具有悠久历史的文明古国。我们的民族也是一个令人交口称赞的礼仪之邦。古人说，“不学礼，无以立”。作为新时代的小学生，不学会礼仪，又怎能在社会上立足呢?也许有同学觉得很难做到讲文明、懂礼仪。其实，文明礼仪就在平时的点点滴滴之中，就在我们的一言一行之上。我们每个人的言行举止体现着学校的品味，关系着学校的荣誉。

树立起学校的美好形象，充分展示出学校的内在美。关键还需要大家的共同努力。就从今天开始，就从现在开始，让我们全体行动起来，争做一个真正的讲文明、懂礼仪的好学生。我的讲话结束，谢谢大家!

第四篇：什么是真正的美_550字

什么是真正的美_550字

“生活中不是缺少美，而是缺少发现。”这句话充分说明生活中的美无处不在，只是我们没有发现而已。

这场雨从昨晚一直下到今早，半夜还有着爆炸声，让人难以入睡，我也不知几时才进入的梦乡。今早上阳台眺望远方，虽没有山，没有水，但有那在迷雾重重中的高楼房和瓦房。透过晨曦，它们显得如此娇贵。叫人不由得担心起来，生怕那娇贵身姿会被这晨风吹垮。然而又害怕起来，觉得这是海市蜃楼。只是暂时的美，过不了多久，雾散了，它也就消失了。让我想起一句俗语：“美永远是短暂的。”过了一会，雾虽散，楼依在。虽然没有重重迷雾的衬托，但是楼房瓦房健在，就是值得庆幸的。

人也是如此，在看一个人时，总是拿着一张布挡在眼前。对待生活也是这样，所以一些人永远感觉不到生活的美，甚至在临死前，也在憎恨这个世界，这个社会，这段人生。到最后依然在眼睛上带着一块布。这些人永远活在山洞里，永远活在黑暗里。一辈子都没走出去，所以，在走前，他们依然在恨别人，依然在恨生活。

他们的一生枯燥乏味，缺少美；这不能怪任何人，也不能怪社会，更不能怪人生；只能怪他们自己。因为在他们的人生道路上，充满了黑暗与漫长，以至于他们忘记了在山洞的外面有阳光，它一直在伸开双手迎接走出山洞的人，但走出来的又有多少。许多人被憎恨蒙蔽了双眼，封闭了自己，忘记了开凿山洞。所以，他们的一生充满了黑暗。

黑暗漫长的山洞犹如你被封闭的心灵。山洞外的阳光犹如生活中的美。

什么是真正的美，山洞外的世界才是真正的美，它需要我们去发现，需要我们去开凿。

第五篇：只有心灵美才是真正的美_演讲稿

只有心灵美才是真正的美_演讲稿

同学们：

爱美之心，人皆有之。然而，人们往往重视的只是外表，而忽略了内心，其实，只有纯洁的心灵才是真正的美。

心灵美是一种美德。大哲学家弗郎西斯·培根曾作过这样一个比喻：美德好比宝石，它在朴素背景的衬托下反而更显美丽。是的，其实每一种美德都是出自善良的内心，它让人们肃然起敬。无论一个人的形体和容貌是否美，人们都会为他的心灵的闪光点而感到自豪。

你看！那田里的捕虫能手——青蛙，它也没有迷人的外表，然而它却任劳任怨为人类服务。这也是美。正如古人说的“昙花一现“、“人老珠黄”一样，外表美是容易凋谢的，因此只有内在的美才是永久的。科尔顿说过，美丽的身材可以吸引倾慕者，但是要永远地吸引住他们，需要美丽的灵魂。

记得曾有人这样说过：“美是纯洁的代名词，是奉献的代名词，是创造的代名词。”然而时至今日，“金玉其外，败絮其中”、“绣花枕头一包草”者仍大有人在，他就只有外表上的美，腹中空空，没有真才其学，只不过是供人观赏的花瓶而已。

我曾目睹过这样一幕：一位年过半百的老人上了一辆公交车，站在一位年轻小姐旁打量是否有空位。那花枝招展的小姐不但不让座位，反而还露出厌恶的神色，嫌弃老人靠脏了她的衣服。这时，一位衣着朴实的姑娘从她身旁站起来，主动为老人让座，顿时全车的人都向这位姑娘投去赞许目光。看到这一幕，我明白了：心灵之美胜于形体之美。

同学们，让我们把美丽的形貌与闪光的美德结合为一体，让美放射出光彩，成为21世纪合格的接班人！
