第一篇:I have a dream演讲词(定稿)
“I Have a Dream”的修辞特征分析
[摘 要] 马丁·路德·金的“I Have a Dream”一直被认为是英语演讲中的经典之作。文章从语音、词汇、句法三方面分析了这篇英语演讲的修辞特征,以帮助英语学习者更好地欣赏马丁·路德·金的演讲艺术、演讲技能,理解演讲的深层含义,提高欣赏水平,领略演讲的魅力。1863年美国总统亚伯拉罕·林肯(Abraham Lincoln)签署了《解放宣言》,但这一重要法令颁布100年以后,美国黑人依然没有获得自由,依然悲惨地蹒跚于种族隔离和种族歧视的枷锁之下。为了争取自由平等,民权运动领袖马丁·路德·金1963年领导25万人举行了历史性的示威游行。游行队伍在林肯纪念碑前举行集会,马丁·路德·金发表了“I Have a Dream”[1]这篇激动人心的演讲。马丁·路德·金为黑人争取自由平等,发动了美国的民权运动,功绩卓著,闻名于世。他还被誉为近百年来八大最具有说服力的演说家之一。[2]笔者就他的这篇演讲的修辞特征作一些探讨。
演讲是一种特殊的文体,其主要目的是激发听众的感情,获得听众的认可与支持,使人们接受或拒绝某种观点,采取或放弃某种行动。演讲要获得听众的支持,一方面必须使听众感到亲切,另一方面又要使讲话稳重可信。为了使演讲达到这种微妙的要求,演讲人通常运用多种修辞手段来增强演讲的感染力。在英语演讲中经常使用的修辞手段大体上可分为语音手段、词汇手段、句法手段三类。
一、语音手段
头韵法(Alliteration)是演讲文体中的一种语音修辞手段。这种修辞手段是指相邻词首出现相同的辅音。头韵的主要修辞作用是增强语言的节奏感。例如:“dignity and disci-pline;great trials and tribulations.”头韵法的恰当使用不仅使演讲朗朗上口,富于乐感和表现力,而且还能抓住听众的注意力,给人留下深刻的印象,为演说增添光彩。
二、词汇手段
马丁·路德·金是一位重要的民权运动领袖,他的演讲属于政治演说,但是他用的大部分词汇并不是政治词汇,而是含有深刻政治意义的普通词汇。在这些普通词汇中,演讲者通常运用比喻使抽象变具体,模糊变鲜明,平淡变激情;使语言形象生动,易于理解,富于感染力。在英语演讲中,比喻是最普遍最常见的词语修辞手段。比喻(figures of speech)是语言艺术的升华,是最富有诗意的语言形式之一,也是语言的信息功能和美学功能的有机结合。英语中常见的比喻包括明喻和隐喻两种。1·明喻(simile)是就两个不同类对象之间的相似点进行比喻,通常用介词“like”,连词“as,as if,as„so”,动词“seem”等以及句型“A„to B”、“C„to D”等。例1·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.(这项重要法令的颁布,对于千百万灼烤于残焰中的黑奴,犹如高高的灯塔上的希望之光,结束了慢慢长夜的笼罩,为他们带来了欢畅黎明。)马丁·路德·金把《解放宣言》比喻为希望之光,比喻为结束慢慢长夜的笼罩后的欢畅黎明,比喻非常贴切,语言生动,语意深刻。例2·„and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.(„„我们不会满意,直至公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌。)大量形象贴切的比喻,形象生动地表达了美国黑人民权运动的真实画面。2·暗喻(metaphor)是根据两个事物间的某些共同的特征,用一事物去暗示另一事物的比喻。例3·One hundred years later,the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of
wk_ad_begin({pid : 21});wk_ad_after(21, function(){$('.ad-hidden').hide();}, function(){$('.ad-hidden').show();});
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.(100年后,黑人依然悲惨地蹒跚于种族隔离和种族歧视的枷锁之下。100年后,黑人依然生活在物质繁荣瀚海的贫困孤岛上。)大量使用暗喻不仅语言生动形象,而且能使读者产生联想,使艰深的道理明白易懂。例4·It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.In-stead of honoring this sacred obligation,America has given the Negro people a bad check;a 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 insuffi-cient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.(然而,今天美国显然对她的有色公民拖欠着这张期票。美国没有承兑这笔神圣的债务,而是开始给黑人一张空头支票,一张盖着“资金不足”的印戳被退回的支票。但是,我们决不相信正义的银行会破产。我们决不相信这个国家巨大的机会宝库会资金不足。)马丁·路德·金把这次声势浩大,有25万人参加的向华盛顿进军的游行集会,比喻为是为了来兑现这张空头支票,这张盖着“资金不足”印戳被退回的支票。这个比喻一针见血,辛辣地讽刺了资产阶级虚伪的民主。他还把每个公民都享有的生存权、自由权、人生幸福权喻为一张期票(promissory note),由这张不能兑现的期票,尖锐地指出了美国政府正拖欠着债务。在这一段演说里,几乎每句都有比喻,他把比喻这种修辞手法发挥得淋漓尽致,极大地增强了表现的力度。
三、句法手段
在马丁·路德·金的这篇演说中,最常用的句法修辞手段有排比、重复、对照。这三种修辞手段表现力非常丰富,能够增强语言的气势,抒发强烈的情感。
1·排比(parallelism)是一种句法修辞手段。它是指把结构相同、意义并重、语气一致的词、短语、句子甚至段落排成串,形成一个整体。例5·„Let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire!Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York!Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghe-nies of Pennsylvania!Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado!Let freedom ring from the curvaceouspeaks of California!(„„让自由之声响彻新罕布尔州的巍峨高峰!让自由之声响彻纽约州的崇高峻岭!让自由之声响彻宾夕法尼亚州的阿勒格尼高峰!让自由之声响彻科罗拉多州的冰雪皑皑的洛基山!让自由之声响彻加利福尼亚州的婀娜群峰!)这里使用排比(parallelism)和重复(repetition),热情洋溢地高呼:让自由之声响彻美国的各个角落,让所有 的美国人不论肤色如何都能享受平等。例6·With this faith,we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beau-tiful symphony of brotherhood.With this faith we will be able to work together,to pray together,to struggle together,to go to jail together,to stand up for freedom together,knowing that we will be free one day.(有了这个信念,我们就能从绝望之山开采出希望之石。有了这个信念,我们就能把这个国家的嘈杂刺耳的争吵声,变成充满手足之情的悦耳交响曲。有了这个信念,我们就能一同工作,一同祈祷,一同斗争,一同入狱,一同维护自由,因为我们知道,我们终有一天会获得自由。)马丁·路德·金在这段演讲中先用重复(句首重复和句尾重复)再用排比,还用了比喻。这三种修辞手法的套用使语意层层递进,增强了演讲的气势,突出了强调的内容,同时使演讲辞读起来韵律节奏分明,铿锵有力。从上面两例我们可以体会到,排比句的句式结构增强了 语言的韵律感,用在演说中能使语调铿锵有力,句式整齐,节奏分明,气势恢弘,使演讲更具感召力。
2·重复(repetition)是在演讲中让同一单词或同一短语或同一个句子再次或多次出现,为达到强调、明晰、幽默、讽刺、呼吁、激情等效果的一种修辞手段。例如:“We refuse to
believe that„”(重复两次),“We have also come to„”(重复两次),“We can never be satisfied„”(重复六次),“I have a dream„”(重复九次),“Let freedom ring„”(重复十次),“One hun-dred years later„”(重复四次),“Now is the time„”(重复四次),“Free at last„”(重复三次)。重复句的使用使这篇演讲产生了鲜明的节奏感和层次感,达到了声情并茂的修辞效 果,给人留下了难以磨灭的印象。
第一人称复数代词的使用在马丁·路德·金的演说中也颇具特色。在他的演讲中,重复使用第一人称单数代词“I”,尤其是第一人称复数代词“we”,以及它们的变体“us,our,me”等。例7·So we have come to cash this check———a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the securityof justice.(因此,我们来兑现这张支票。这张支票将给我们以宝贵的自由和正义的保障。)此句的“we,us”是演讲者所使用的一种语言技巧,“we,us”可以包括讲话人和听话人,使用“we,us”就等于把讲话人放到听话人的同一立场之上,或更精确地说,是把听话人拉到了自己这一边。这样一来就会使听众倍感亲切,就更容易赢得听众的支持。3·对照(antithesis)是指结构上匀称整齐,意义上相反的词语互相衬托。对照句可以增强语言的鲜明性,起到加强语意作用的一种修辞手段。例8·Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate val-ley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.(现在是走出幽暗荒凉的种族隔离深谷,踏上种族平等的阳光大道的时候。现在是使我们国家走出种族不平等的流沙,踏上充满手足之情的磐石的时候。)作者把“the dark and desolate valley of segregation”同“the sunlit path of racial justice”进行对照,非常生动形象;把“the quicksands of racial injustice”同“the solid rock of brotherhood”进行对比,具有强烈的表现力。例9·This sweltering summer of the Negro’s legitimate dis-content will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn offreedom and equality.(自由平等的朗朗秋日不到来,黑人合情合理的怨恨的酷暑就不会过去。)作者把意义上相对立的词“sweltering summer”与“invigorating autumn”凑在一起进行对比,句子结构紧凑,语言色彩鲜明,语意作用强烈。这种对照修辞手段在结构成分上对称,意义上则对照,它可以把深刻的道理说得明白动听。
“I Have a Dream”这篇演说运用的修辞手段多种多样。既有语音修辞手段,如头韵;也有词汇修辞手段,如明喻、暗喻等;还有句法修辞手段,如排比、重复、对照等。马丁·路德·金借助这些修辞手段宣传思想、吸引鼓动听众、激发听众采取行动。这些修辞手段的运用增强了演讲的说服力和感染力。演讲者不仅突出了演讲的意图,而且为其内容创造了形象美、气势美和韵律美。认真学习、分析英语演讲的精品,以帮助英语学习者更好地欣赏马丁·路德·金的演讲艺术、演讲技能,理解演讲的深层含义,对提高学习者英语理解、欣赏、运用能力大有裨益

亲爱的老师、同学们:
大家好!
梦想是我们前进的动力,是我们前行的指路灯,是对美好未来的憧憬。每个人心中都有一个梦想,而我的梦想却与众不同,那就是当一名舞蹈家。
我刚到跳舞班的时候,心里就像十五个吊桶打水,七上八下,紧张的不得了,不敢进去。老师说:“快点来吧,我们欢迎每个新同学的到来!”我看着老师鼓励的目光,看着同学们的期待,心想我一定能行,我会做的更好。我不再紧张,而是大方的走进了舞蹈班。
老师先跳了一支舞,她那娴熟的动作,她那优美的舞姿深深的吸引了我。老师示范过后先让我们练习下腰,刚开始的时候我的腰很痛,看着同学们练习的那么到位,我真是有点自愧不如,老师说:“加油,熟能生巧,多练习练习就不痛了。她们比你练习的时间长多了,我想信你经过一段时间的练习,一定可以做的更好!”
这时我想起许多的舞蹈家的优美身影,想起了自己的梦想。“不!我不能让老师失望!我要实现我的梦想,我要成为一个舞者。我一定可以做到的!”练习了几周,我不仅会下腰,而且还会跳一支完整的舞蹈。老师说我的节奏感很强,能很准的踏着鼓点跳。我对自己的未来更有信心了。
一个学期转瞬即逝,有一次上课,老师告诉我们说:“咱们接河南电视台的邀请,要去参加春节的电视节目录制。”听到这个振奋人心的消息,我们个个欢呼雀跃,个个都充满了信心。演出开始了,站在这诺大的舞台上,音乐响起,我和同学们都非常的投入,我们把一曲《榴花似火》表演的淋漓尽致。经过这次的锻炼,我想以后不管遇到什么困难,我都要坚持自己的梦想,成为一名优秀的舞蹈家。
虽然现在我离实现梦想的距离还很遥远,但是我明白,坚持就是胜利!

亲爱的老师、同学们:
大家好!
每个人都有自己的梦想,虽然有的梦想,要经历许多挫折,但追求梦想的人从不放弃流汗流血的机会,我也有自己的梦想,那就是当一名杰出的篮球运动员。
我曾今阅读过一篇文章:乔丹很热爱篮球,梦想成为一名杰出的篮球明星,他非常希望教练满足他加入篮球队的愿望,可是教练员却说乔丹更本就没有打篮球天赋,可是他不仅没有生气,反而再次请求,教练没有办法,只好让他当了一名特殊成员,专门给球员捡球的人。他在接下来二年中发愤练习,终于用自己地行动当上了公牛对的主力,连获三届NBA总决赛冠军,得到了“空中飞人”的称号。是啊,热爱是多么伟大呀!我很受感动,因为我的梦想也是当一名篮球队员,那么我是怎样为我的梦想而努力呢?
我在我家的墙上做了一个小篮筐,天天对着篮筐投球练习我的准确力,虽然我有时会为了捡球而磕磕碰碰,可我并不气馁,一天又一天的投篮,现在我的投篮技术有明显的提高,比刚开始强多了,可我的弹跳力也得练,于是我每天争取跳起来用手挨到门框上边,过了不久,我的弹跳力又有了一些进展
就这样,我会一直努力下去,就算在实现梦想的道路上会磕磕碰碰,跌跌撞撞,可我是不会放弃的,我相信,有梦想的人只要有信心,只要有恒心,梦想就一定会实现!

各位老师,各位同学,大家好,今天我演讲的主题是我有一个梦想!
梦想是什么?梦想像一粒种子,种在“心”的土壤里,尽管它很小,却可以生根开花,假如没有梦想,就像生活在荒凉的戈壁,冷冷清清,没有活力。有了梦想,也就有了追求,有了奋斗的目标,有了梦想,就有了动力。
阿里巴巴创始人马云曾说人都要有梦想,万一实现了呢?小时候,我的梦想是像马云一样成为全国首富,坐拥者淘宝,自己花出去的钱,到头来还是自己的。长大后,我发现我与马云的距离不是相差一点而是很大,马云永远是马云。再到后来我开始羡慕欧阳娜娜。当你还在犹豫买哪双匡威时,人已经拥有全部了。就问你气不气人?后来我发现坚持自己创业的是马云,不是我。小时候,拉大提琴磨破手的是欧阳娜娜不是我。所以到后来坐拥淘宝的是马云,不是我,考上伯克利音乐学院是欧阳娜娜不是我。我们都是凡人,也是要给自己找一些借口。这不我渐渐的又明白了,拥有聪明的头脑的人是马云,不是我。含金钥匙长大的是欧阳娜娜不是我。
马云是说过人都要有梦想,万一实现了呢,但是遥不可及的梦想,那叫做白日梦。今天我郑重的宣布,我有一个梦想,考上理想的高中。
我可望考上理想的高中带着满满的自豪感和一点点小骄傲,正在学校门口看着那几个不摔的大,字在心中悄悄的呐喊我来了,让你久等了。
明白,我要考上理想的高中就要付出同的代价。我知道我这成绩离它还有一定的距离,但是没有失败,只是还没有成功。
从现在开始,我必须也一定要为我这个梦想而努力。
我的演讲完毕,谢谢大家!

敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们:
大家好!
我是来自x年级x班的__,今天我演讲的题目是《我有一个梦想》。
梦想是石,敲出星星之火;梦想是火,点燃熄灭的灯;理想是灯,照亮夜行的路;梦想是路,引你走到黎明。
每一个人都有自己的梦想,我的梦想是将来成为一名卓越的科学家。妈妈知道我的梦想后一个劲的摇头:“不行,我不同意我的乖女儿当什么科学家哟。科学家很苦,吃不好,睡不好。”但我认为这是妈妈考虑浅短,如果每个人都这么想,那么这个世界还有人为科学事业献身吗?浩瀚的宇宙藏着的无数问号,不也就成了永久问号,人类社会不还处在原始的茹毛饮血、刀耕火种的时代吗?
中国改革开放的总设计师说,科学技术是生产力,而且是第一生产力。伟大的科学家居里夫人发现了镭,可以用于治疗癌症。这一发现,让许许多多被疾病折磨的人们得到解脱,得到了快乐。瓦特发明了蒸汽机,这一发明,使人类社会向前迈进了一大步。
从而为资本主义社会的诞生奠定了坚实的基础。冯。诺依曼发明的电脑,从那以后,就可足不出户,也能知晓世界上的重大事情,可真是“秀才不出门,尽知天下事。”小学生遇到难题可以询问电脑,人们可以网上购物,网上交易同,商家们可以运筹于帷幄之中,决胜于千里之外。
这些不都是科学带来的好处与方便吗?也正是有了科学的进步与发展,人类才从原始社会发展到现在,以及后来科技更加发达,物质财富更加丰富的社会!
你知道科学家为什么把冥王星踢出“家门”,称它为“矮行星”吗?你知道在笔尖上发现的星球是谁吗?为什么说是在笔尖上发现的呢?这一切的一切,都可以在科学界中寻求到答案,但是,仍有谜团未解开。
如人类究竟从哪里来?人类的智慧哪那里来?人的头颅可以移植吗?人体的潜力之谜,人体自然之谜,宇宙中的黄金,神秘天体绕太阳运行,火星上的金字塔之谜,亲人与亲人之间发生的心电感应等。
这些谜团,正等待着我们去解答。我相信,只要我们大家共同努力,这些谜团就会迎刃而解的。我们的社会就会更加进步,我们的国家就会更加和谐,更加富强。
我朝着理想奋斗,矢志不渝,坚韧不拔,这个目标决不会与我擦肩而过,它一定会和我成为好朋友,让我创造辉煌,成为第二个获诺贝奖的女性吧!
朋友们,为我加油吧!
谢谢大家!我的演讲到此结束!

尊敬的老师、家长们,亲爱的同学们:
大家好!
今天我演讲的题目是《我有一个梦想》。
我们的人生并不是一条平坦的阳光大道,路上有黑暗,我们的心会迷失。这时候,我们就需要一盏灯引导我们走出迷宫。而那盏灯,就是我们的梦想。
今天,我们在这里谈论梦想,或大或小。但我不想说什么梦想世界和平,梦想坏境美好的空话。于我而言,此时此刻看,我只想与你们谈论自己的未来。
我有一个梦想,梦想我有一辆车,一辆能坐下四个人的车,拉着我的友人奔向大海。一路上我们听着激情澎湃的歌,开着无关痛痒的玩笑,轮番地开着夜车。饿了,去路边陌生但有特色的饭馆吃饭;累了,去干净的旅馆做一个悠长的梦。等到达一望无际的大海。在夜晚的沙滩上生起篝火,我们围坐在火堆旁嬉笑打闹。喝着啤酒,红通通的脸上都是肆无忌惮的的笑,对着叠着影子的月亮歇斯底里地喊着。没有忌讳,没有拘谨,因为我们是的朋友!
我有一个梦想,梦想以后能再见到许久没有联系的朋友们,和他们聊聊那个时候的事情,那个时候的人都过得好不好。想找个机会坦诚地告诉他们,这辈子能和你做朋友很幸福!
我有一个梦想,梦想以后进入社会,我身边的人不会那么功利,不会那么自私。梦想自己有一天不会为了金钱而去施计陷害,不会为了利益而弄丢单纯的快乐,不会让朋友看到穷凶极恶的我而敬而远之。
我有一个梦想,从今天开始,帮自己一个忙,不再承受身外目光,不必在意他人的评价,为自己活着;从今天开始,帮自己一个忙,做喜欢的事情,爱最亲近的人,抛弃伪装的面具,不再束缚情感的空间;从今天开始,帮自己一个忙,卸下所有的负担,忘却曾经的疼痛,抚平心灵的创伤,让自己活得轻松而充盈。从今天开始,看书、写字、唱歌、涂鸦,给每一个日子取一个温暖的名字,做一个赏心悦目的人。
我有一个梦想,就是单纯的充实的过着每一天。
你们可能会笑我的梦想太过平庸。可是无论是什么样的梦想,都不是一种简简单单的口号,它更是一种实际的行动!梦想,是生命中最有意义的一种信仰。梦想,就是不相信命运就等于命+运,相信除了你自己,没有人能书写你的命运。
我们要相信,其实天不暗,阴云终要散;其实海不宽,此岸连彼岸;其实路不险,条条路可攀;其实梦想不遥远,一切都会实现……不论多么伟大抑或是多么平淡无奇的理想,也要不断的向上!
汪国真在文章中写道:“只要春天还在,我就不会悲哀,纵使黑夜吞噬了一切,太阳还可以重新回来;只要生命还在,我就不会悲哀,纵使陷身茫茫沙漠,还有希望的绿洲的存在;只要明天还在,我就不会悲哀,冬雪终会悄悄融化融化,春雷定将滚滚而来。”
所以,当你有一个美丽的梦想时,记住一定要勇往直前,只有你尽力了,才有资格说你运气不好。我相信,多年后的那个你,一定会感谢现在拼命努力的你!
谢谢大家,我的演讲完毕!

education we have received to make our world a better place.i believe in our future.我对未来充满信心
尊敬的评委,各位同学: 下午好!最近,社会上有一场很激烈的争论。大学生是一种稀有特权的享有者,在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是,我们能面对挑战而无所畏惧吗?我们能够改善他人的生活吗?我们能够承担建设祖国未来的重任吗?
怀疑论者说大学生是被宠坏的一代,一丁点挫折都受不了。但是他们错了,我所看到的大学生正在努力的学习独立生活。我们互相帮助打扫卫生,一起上街砍价购物,一起参加兼职工作来赚零花钱。怀疑论者说我们除了成绩什么都不关心,从而忽略了性格的培养。但是,他们又错了。我们彼此关心,我们向往自由,我们珍惜公正,我们追求真理。上个星期,很多我的同学去验血,为了给患血癌的孩子贡献自己的力量。
作为大学生,我们是处在人生分水岭的青年。我们都面临一个重要的选择:怀疑人生还是相信自己,每一种都会给我们的人生带来重大的影响,甚至影响我们祖国的未来。我相信我们的同学们,虽然我们依然缺乏经验,甚至有些志气,但是我相信我们有勇气和自信来面对生活的挑战并承担我们的责任。我们正努力准备接受新的任务,用我们所学习的知识将世界变得更美好。我对我们的未来充满信心。

change the ingredients of your life so my dear friend, if faith, hope, love, endurance are added to your life, you will find the confidence to conquer your limitation and embrace new challenges.and hopefully with my speech included, you will have a fantastic speech contest.改变生活的味道
这是一杯白开水,平淡无味,对吧?可是加上点糖呢,他尝起来会有甜味;如果加的是苏打水,味道就会变苦。人生同样如此——个中滋味在于我们的选择。善待他人,你会拥有朋友;但如果充满恶意,则会多个敌人。将爱赋予一堆红砖,你会拥有一个家;用仇恨来浇铸这堆红砖,就会铸成一座集中营。因此亲爱的朋友们,不要抱怨人生乏味,世间无望。不喜欢生活的味道,那就换一换生活的调料吧!三年前,我重达100多公斤,这给我带来了很多尴尬和挫折:体育课老是不及格,总被女孩们嘲笑,更不敢当众发表意见。幸而由于祖母的鼓励,我不在消极人生,而是充满自信。她曾经说过:“孩子,如果体形无法改变,为什么不把它看做自己独特的风格呢?” 我开始这样来审视人生,通过改变生活的视角,我信心大增地去改变我的人生,很快就发现一个崭新的世界。
朋友们,将信念,希望,爱意和忍性溶入生命,你就会找到自信,克服缺点,迎接人生新的挑战。最后我的演讲包括在内,希望你会看到一场精彩的演讲比赛。大学生英语演讲稿16
十六、杨颖,21岁,海南 kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!”
but now, a century later, they have met.i love beijing and hennan opera because it always reminds me of who i am.but i am also a fan of pop music, especially english songs.so i when two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other.when this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the customs of another culture.then there are certain things some people may not like.to this, i will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it.to learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge.before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures.at present, they may run in different courses.but eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.right now, i can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow!thank you!让我们共同感受东西方的融合 吉卜林说过:东方是东方,西方是西方,二者永不相聚。但是一个世纪后的今天,东西方相汇了!它们相聚在经济领域,它们相聚在教育领域,它们相聚在艺术的殿堂。有人争论说:这种融合需要我们在东方和西方之间做出选择,但我却坚信最美好的未来在于东方和西方创造性的融合。我们可以将西方的思想,观念和技术变为我们自己所用的东西。
我喜爱京剧和河南豫剧,因为它们经常使我想起自己是谁。但我也热衷于流行音乐,特别是英文歌曲。于是我将东方的旋律和西方的语言结合到了一起,它叫做西方版的河南豫剧。当两种文化相结合的时候,也许一方的文化中的某些东西不适应另一方的传统文化。当此种情况出现时,我们需要试着理解并接受另一种文化中的风俗习惯。然而,也许有些东西你并不喜欢,对于此,我可以说,如果你不喜欢它,请试着去容忍它。当两种文化融合的时候,试着去容忍你个人不喜欢的东西是一种美德。在我们面前有两条河流,东方文化和西方文化。现在,它们也许正朝着不同的方向流去。但是最终它们将汇合到人类文化的海洋里。
就在此时此刻,我看见东方和西方的人肩并肩的站在一起,高唱奥林匹克主题曲:我们手拉手,心靠着心,共同创造美好的明天!大学生英语演讲稿英语风采大赛半决赛选手自备演讲赏析(大学成人组)
十五、黄扬,21,福建 farewell, indifference who was the most well-known figure in china last month? it’s ma jiajue—the college student who murdered 4 of his roommates.many people attributed his crime to his poverty and deficient education.in my opinion, his crime also has much to do with his classmates’ indifference.indifference is a terrible disease in today’s colleges and the whole society.it’s not rare that two students who have studied together for 4 years have never spoken to each other.it’s not rare that a student who has been absent from class for several days is not noticed at all.it’s also not rare that a student who has severe psychological problems is not cared about at all.some people may say ‘what the students with psychological problems like ma jiajue need is not care but psychotherapy.” however, when people are ill, what they need most is not only medical treatment, but also care from people around them.every smile and every caring word will bring sunshine to their life.what can we do to prevent the tragedy of ma jiajue from happening again? some people may say ‘let’s open more psychological courses in schools.’ and other people may say ‘let’s donate more money for the poor students.’ but i’ll say “my fellow student, let’s give more love and care to our roommates, our classmates and every person around us!” 走出冷漠
谁是中国上个月最有名的人物? 这当然要数马加爵了——这个杀害了四名同学的大学生。很多人将他的犯罪归结于他的贫穷和不全面的教育。但我觉得他的犯罪还跟他周围同学的冷漠有很大关系。
冷漠是流行于当今校园及整个社会中的一种可怕的疾病。有的同学在一起学习了4年却从未说过话,有的同学几天没去上课却无人知晓,还有的同学有了严重的心理问题却得不到关心。

专家点评:引用文学大师的诗句作为开场白,与结束语首尾呼应,颇有感染力。东西方文化的融合表现得十分鲜明,意味深长,是篇优秀的演讲。crossing the sea good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.the title of my speech today is crossing the sea.an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in his poem we and they: all the people like us are we and everyone else is they we live over the sea while they live over the way we eat pork and beef with cowhorn-handled knives they who gobble their rice off a leaf are horrified out of their lives.when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked-how could two peoples remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? todays society, of course, is an entirely different picture.those people who used to eat with cowhorn-handled knives might be very skillful in using chopsticks, and those people who used to gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips.indeed, just take china as an example: our modern life has been influenced by western style of living in so many ways that its no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mcdonalds and even rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans.however, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today.what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nations mentality.just look around.it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization are already living under strong inf1uence of the western culture.but it is not only in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.take the chinese acupuncture as another example: this traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body--an idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past!ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before.we live in a particular era when countries, east and west, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values.we live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world.it is my happiest dream that the new generation of chinese will not only grow up drinking coca-cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures;benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again: all the people like us are we and everyone else is they but once you cross over the sea you will end by looking on we as only a sort of they thank you.译文:穿越海洋
女士们、先生们,晚上好。今天,我演讲的题目是:《穿越海洋》。
英国诗人罗得雅德·吉卜林曾写过一首诗,名叫《我们与他们》,其中写道: 像我们的人是我们
其余的人是他们 我们生活在海这边
他们生活在路那边
我们用牛角柄的刀叉吃猪牛肉
吞吃粽叶包饭的他们吓得要死。
第一次读到这首诗,我很震惊——过去两个民族何以如此疏离、彼此陌生?当然今日的社会呈现出完全不同的情景:那些过去吃米饭的人们也开始喜欢吃鱼和薯条。的确如此,就拿中国来说,西方的生活方式已经广泛地影响了我们的现代生活,以致对于年轻人对摇滚乐着迷,全家去吃麦当劳,老年人穿苹果牌牛仔裤,大家都已习以为常。
然而,这不过是我们当今社会中所发生的文化变迁的表面现象而已,真正发生的却是我们的民族心理开始了微妙而又有重大意义的重建,大家只要看看周围就会清楚。
不久以前,大学生还只是束手空坐,等待政府给他们分配工作;如今,又有多少大学生正在做充分准备,为争取任何工作机会而激烈角逐? 20年前年轻人还完全依靠父母为他们安排未来,今天又有多少年轻人在急切地寻求一种独立的生活?试问今天参加演讲比赛的诸位,谁不是带着志在一搏的心情来到这里?谁不是铁下篇四:21世纪英语演讲诸康妮演讲稿 17岁深圳外国语学校高三学生诸康妮,收到了7所美国高校录取书。不久前她还参加了湖南卫视脱口秀节目《天天向上》,还展示了一段演讲。现在我们就来一睹她完整版演讲比赛的风采吧。
discover yourself when i was 6 i constantly pictured myself as an elegant and skilled pianist rendering chopin’s nocturne beautifully on the stage, receiving warm applause after my performance.as i furthered my piano lessons, it was hard to be oblivious of my non-gifted skills.sometimes i couldn’t help but have this feeling of despair when i woke up to the reality and discovered that my goal was unrealistic.brutal but real, it was the first time i had discovered that i couldn’t have it all.when i was 12 i thought the coolest job in the entire universe was to be a surgeon.i spent hours and hours watching the drama “grey’s anatomy”, and couldn’t help falling in love with the kind of life those doctors lead on the screen.i was utterly mesmerized by the scalpel and all those fancy medical terms they use.however, i stopped dreaming about being a surgeon when i discovered that it was the idea of being a surgeon that appealed to me, not what it truly was.therefore, the dream ended and i discovered some more about myself.this year i turned 16, i could proudly say i do not dream to be but ascertain to pursue being a lawyer in the future.since junior high school i was always awarded the “most eloquent debater” in every single debate i participated in.i cannot only think logically but also deliver my thoughts promptly.my huge interest in philosophy also adds to my adjust to what’s out there.and by that, ladies and gentleman, i’m proud to say that i’ve discovered part of myself, still discovering today standing on this stage, and hopefully a lot more in the future.i will always keep this embedded into my heart that things do not change, we do.篇五:第十一届21世纪杯英语演讲冠军曹丰演讲稿
our future: a battle between dreams and reality good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen: when i was in the primary school, i have a dream.i want to invent a device which could bring you from one place to another in no time at all.when i was in the secondary school, my dream was to study in my ideal university.and when eventually i got into the university, my dream was to graduate.ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real.it is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies.flying, for example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years.a hundred years ago, man could not fly was still regarded as the reality.now if that was really the reality, what did the wright brothers do? how did some of you get to macau? only when we believe that the reality is not real can we soar with our dreams.people say that our future is a battle between the reality and our dreams.and if, unfortunately, mr.reality wins this war, then i see no future of mankind at all.aids will never be curable as this is the reality;people living in the undeveloped countries will suffer from starvation forever as this is the reality;disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance is the reality.now that i am a university student, my goal is to graduate with excellences.but at the same time, i have a dream deeply rooted in our future.one day, people living in the areas now sweltering with the horror of wars will be able to sit with their 我们的未来:梦想与现实之间的战斗
下午好,女士们,先生们:
当我在小学,我有一个梦想。我想发明一种可以使你从一个地方到另一个在没有时间在所有设备。当我在中学的时候,我的梦想是我的理想大学的研究。当我终于进了大学,我的梦想是毕业。
多么可怜!当我们长大了,我们的梦想不变得更加现实。为什么呢?为什么我们要改变我们的梦想,因此,为了让它成为";完成了";?我们为什么要到所谓的“投降;现实";?什么是现实?
女士们,先生们,现实是不真实的。这是一个障碍使我们从所有可能的幻想。飞行,例如,一直是人类几千年来的梦想。一百年前,";人不能飞";仍被视为“现实”。如果那是真的现实,那么莱特兄弟怎么办?你们当中有些人是怎么去澳门?只有当我们相信现实是不是真正的我们可以翱翔的梦想。人们说,我们的未来是一个现实与我们的梦想战斗。如果,不幸的是,先生赢得这场战争的现实,那么我认为没有人类的未来的所有。艾滋病将永远不会被治愈,因为这是现实;人们生活在不发达的国家将遭受饥饿永远因为这是现实;不同国家之间的争端将不会因为误解和偏执是现实的解决。
女士们,先生们,你们有多少个能赚很多钱的梦想?请举起你的手。哦,相当多的你!事实上,女士们、先生们,这不是梦,而是一个任务。我们每一个人都赚钱,对吗?无论如何,我希望你的任务将完成。你们有多少人认为你已经完成你的梦想,你别做梦了吗?尊敬的评委们,你怎么认为?刘易斯曾说,";你永远不会老,新梦想。";所以我们的未来,请梦想是不切实际的。
我是一名大学生,我的目标是以优异的成绩毕业。但同时,我有一个梦深深植根于我们的未来。有一天,生活在该地区现在战争的恐怖逼人的人将能够坐在他们的家庭和享受每一刻。有一天,来自富裕国家的人民都愿意分享他们与那些来自贫穷国家和贫穷国家将最终能够使自己的幸福生活。有一天,在这个全球化时代不同的文化与它们之间的宽容和不友好的对抗并存的将被淘汰。有一天,全世界都将与我分享梦想,我们都将有助于使我们的梦想成真。
第五篇:演讲词
老师们,同学们:
大家好!
时间,是一首无声的歌;时间,是一缕无痕的风;时间,是一张没有回程的车票。向前看,仿佛时间悠悠无边;猛回首,方知生命挥手瞬间。回首三年的初中生活,曾经有欢畅的笑,曾经有痛快的哭,曾经有挥洒的汗,曾经有收获的甜......是的,经过了春耕夏耘,我们终于迎来了收获的季节。如今,宝剑在手,寒梅飘香,背水一战的时刻到了,我们的心在一起跳动。
同学们,决战的号角已经吹响。俗话说:三分甜注定,七分靠打拼,爱拼才会赢!中考的战鼓已经擂响,我们别无选择。“狭路相逢勇者胜”,此时不搏何时搏?卧薪尝胆的勾践,面壁静修的达摩,程门立雪的杨时......告诉我们:目标引导行动,行动决定命运,衣带渐宽终不悔,不到长城非好汉。没有经历风雨的果实不会甜美,没有远大目标的人不会成功。
同学们,我希望你不要做过客的流星。因为,你曾用智慧培育理想;不要摘青色的青果,因为你曾用汗水浇灌希望;不要做漂泊的扁舟,因为你曾乘风破浪,渡过学海茫茫;不要做退缩的懦夫,因为你曾披荆斩棘,踏过书山坎坷。
秣马厉兵三个月,敢抒凌云之志;砥砺磨剑意百天,誓酬蹈海雄心。一百天,愿你们奋发图强,持之以恒。举胸中豪情,倾热血满腔,与雷霆碰杯,同日月争光。“三年砺剑今日策马闯雄关,一朝试锋六月扬眉凯歌旋。”
你们看:
老师们已经为你们点燃决战的狼烟。
学弟学妹也正为你们的冲刺擂鼓呐喊。
满怀期望的微笑也挂满了父母那饱经风霜的脸。
同学们,努力吧!是船,就要搏击风浪;是浆,就要奋勇前进;是雄鹰,就要以飞冲天!
同学们,让我们拥抱理想,以青春的名义宣誓:
不负父母的企盼,不负恩师德厚望,逐鹿中考,舍我其谁!奋斗百日,名题今榜!
谢谢大家!
