第一篇：关存丰演讲稿

尊敬的领导、老师、亲爱的同学们：

大家上午好！我是来自水运工程系10轮机2班的关存丰，现任院学生会学习部部长助理，今天我竞聘的是院学习部部长一职。在这里我要感谢学院为我提供这次机会让我有幸参与竞选。同时也要感谢在座的各位领导老师以及同学们对我的支持和信任。

昨日已成过去，明天才是我的追求，09年秋季我有幸成为院学生会的一员，我没有什么特殊非凡的阅历和令人炫目的资本，但是从基层工作的实践中锻炼了自己，从第一次的值班、考勤，第一次的例会，第一次表格的制作，第一次活动的开展，这一路走来我懂得了“细节决定成败、权力就是责任”。

既然是鲜花就要绽放，既然是树木就要长成栋梁，既然是石头我就要铺出大道，既然是学习部部长我就要做好领航员，在我担任学习部干事以来，在家积极配合院学生会工作的同时也参加了人文论坛、大专辩论赛的筹划和筹备，交流晚会、元旦晚会的会场布置，迎新接待、招新宣传等一系列活动。这一系列的活动培养了我较强的办事能力和组织协调能力，以及驾驭复杂局面和把握大局的应变能力同时勤学苦干，适应性强的个性与广大同学间的友好关系也正是我的优势所在。而这所有的一切正是造就一名出色的学生会干部所需要的。

另外，在我对这次竞选怀有热情、自信和希望的同时，我想最现实、最实际的还是我个人对未来工作的几点想法：

 一切真知的产生都是来源于实践，如果今天我有幸竞聘成功，身上的责任会更重，我会尽己所能高质高效地做好本部门的各项工作。

 加强各部门之间的沟通、协作，同时加强与各系学习部之间的沟通，全心全意地位

最后，我认为时代以奉献为荣，进步以参与为时尚，生活在于主动、生活在于投入，相信只要给我一个验证的机会，我将一定做到：“人尽其才、才尽其用”请大家相信我关存丰，这名字代表着我的志向、我的作风、我的追求，我相信我会“出平凡与不平凡”之中还大家一个优异的学习部！我的演讲完毕谢谢大家！！

第二篇：演讲稿关存丰2

尊敬的各位领导老师、亲爱的同学们大家好！

宁愿做错了后悔，也不要错过了后悔!我是水运工程系10轮机2班的关存丰，现在在学习部担任部长助理。我竞选的职务是院学生会学习部部长一职。

山重水复疑无路，柳暗花明又一村。这是我进学生会最想说的一句话，10年秋季，我有幸成为院学生会的一员。我没有什么特殊非凡的阅历与令人眩目的资本，但我从基层工作的实践中得到了充足的锻炼。从第一次例会，第一次考勤，第一次值班开始，一路走来，我明白：责任永远是荣誉的二倍。进入学生会是一种荣誉更是一种责任。天下兴亡，匹夫有责。但我想说：天下兴亡，我有责。带着责任上路，我成功参与组织了“人文论坛”的口号、标志的征集以及影视播放；第三届“通达杯”大专辩论赛；“自立自强，立志成才，报效祖国”演讲比赛；同时，一年多的学生会生活造就了我坚强的性格,自信的人生态度。我的学习和工作也得到老师同学的肯定。

学习部作为学生会的重要组成部分，负责考核评比全院晚自习，构建良好学风，是教与学之间的沟通桥梁，也是实现提升学习能力与锻炼自我的有效平台。如果我当选，我将从以下4个方面做好工作：

1、加强协作，做好联系学校和学生之间的纽带

学生会是一个整体，部门与部门之间就是兄弟姐妹，加强协作，步伐一致。同时要加强与各系学习部的沟通。全心全意的为同学们服务。真正做到工作从同学中来，到同学们中去

2、提高团队的整体素质与综合能力 严格地要求自己，提高学生会内部成员的素质，增加团体的凝聚力，使内部达到真正的团结统一，使学生的职能得到充分的发挥。

3、组织制度建设

一个强大的组织，必须有一套行之有效的制度保障其运转。在现行制度的基础上，将进一步制定出行之有效的部门制度。如：值班、考勤、例会制度。真正确保学习部的工作透明化。使各项工作行之有效的运行。

4、活动方面，积极进取，锐意创新

做好原有工作的基础上，适时、适量的改进工作。打造交院品牌活动。

雄鹰展翅急需一方天空，我真心的渴望领导老师能够给我这个展现自我的舞台。我会向你们递交满意答卷。“语言上的巨人，行动上的矮子”永远是不可取的。机遇与挑战同在，但我相信，机遇永远垂青于勤勉、努力的执着者。

最后我想用一句古谚来结束我的演讲：“不可以一时之得意而自夸其能，亦不可以一时之失意而自坠其志”。

最后的最后，请大家记住我来自10轮机2班的关存丰，也请大家记住这个特殊的时刻。十年前的今天，澳门回归祖国，祖国同庆。十年后的今天，交院学生会依旧辉煌。

谢谢大家，我的演讲毕!

辛勤耕耘收入丰

农村信用社演讲稿:汗水拓宽揽存路辛勤耕耘收入丰2007-12-18 13:33:50第1文秘网第1公文网农村信用社演讲稿:汗水拓宽揽存路辛勤耕耘收入丰农村信用社演讲稿:汗水拓宽揽存路辛勤耕耘收入丰(2)各位领导、各位同仁，大家好！我叫XX，2004年1月通过招标上岗、优化组合成为水都信用社均州分社负责人。我是受命于危难之时，当时均州分社各项存款持续下降，一个4000余万元存款的网点，到我接手时其余额仅有2930万元，为此该网点职工每月仅能拿到五百元左右的工资，远远低于其它营业网点职工收入。为了扭转这一被动局面，我和优化组合而来的4名职工勇往

直前，用辛勤和汗水浇开了储蓄之花。到2004年底，均州分社各项存款余额达4667万元，较年初净增1764万元，其净增额在全市各营业网点独树一帜。一份耕耘，就有一份收获。在存款大幅攀升的同时，我们均州分社职工的收入均超过了2万元，其中我个人的年收入达到了万元，是我参加工作以来收入最高的一年，与大多数职工相比，可以说是够丰厚的。我想，如果没有上级领导对我的关心、支持，如果没有招标上岗、优化组合的残酷竞争，如果没有能者多劳、多劳多得的按劳分配制度，我就无法象今天这样扬眉吐气。下面，我向在座的各位领导和同事介绍一年来我是怎样以辛勤和汗水换来丰厚回报的。大家知道，我所在的均州分社地处丹江金融一条街。在方圆不到1公里的范围内农行、工行、建行三足鼎力，市场竞争已达到了白热化程度。我们均州分社牌子不如别人硬、结算渠道不如别人畅、服务产品不如别人多、服务质量不如别人高，致使我们在竞争中只有招架之功，没有还手之力，如果不尽快实施先人一步、快人一招的超常规举措，就难以扼制存款下滑的局面。

面对种种不利因素，作为均州分社负责人，我义无反顾，没有退缩。为了在激烈的竞争中不断发展壮大，使分社每一个职工能够拿到较高的工资，我在揽存工作中充分发扬“拼命三郎”的精神，只要有百分之一的希望，就用百分之百的努力去争取。为了尽快进入角色，我对辖内的客户分布情况进行了全面摸底梳理归类，发现我社附近不仅有市人民医院、丹二巷菜市场，而且还遍布餐饮、娱乐、超市，可以说组织资金的条件得天独厚。摸清市场后，我将不利因素转化成有利条件。通过上门公关、建立客户信息卡、定期访问等手段，激活了一批“沉睡”客户，发展了一批黄金客户。小梅超市与我社仅一墙之隔，但从未与信用社发生业务往来。为了争取到小梅超市这个客户，我多次上门做工作，而

小梅超市的老板似乎不太领情，总是若即若离，始终没有在我社开立帐户，我没有因此而放弃，而是一如既往的为其主动兑换零币，帮助鉴定其人民币真伪，有意为其推销商品，点点滴滴的真情注入终于打动了老板的心，如今小梅超市已在我社开立了帐户，月均存款余额保持在30万元左右。

为了在激烈的储蓄竞争中站稳脚跟，我们一个回合不行，十个回合的毅力拼搏，只要是自己选准的目标，我将义无反顾，勇往直前，不达目的誓不罢休。刘女士是金融一条街上有钱大户，但多年来一直未与我社往来，眼睁睁地看着一池肥水总是流入外人田，我心里真不是滋味，于是攻关刘女士便成了我的一大目标。去年9月我找到了她家，刘女士见了我，开口就说：“今天怎么又来了，我的钱存在工行，你别费心机了。”不善于吃闭门羹的我有意避开了存款话题，与之谈论起日常生活中的杂事。一向细心的我发现沙发上放着准备织毛衣的毛线，我眼

睛一转，有办法了。我指着沙发上的毛线笑着说：“我织毛衣可在行了，你生意忙，我帮你织两件，怎么样？”刘女士满口答应了。“项庄舞剑，意在沛公”。10多天后，刘女士第一笔13万元的资金在我社落了户。

争存要有路，揽储要有方，拉关系，搭桥，然后攻关是我争存揽储工作中的又一决窍。一天，我在一个朋友家玩，朋友告诉我：“市中心有一个体老板家中有一笔钱，就看你有没有能耐把它弄到手。”听到这一信息后，我并没有盲目地上门找这位老板，而是先打听老板周围的熟人，通过“人托人，宝找宝”的方式终于和这位个体老板搭上了，但老板否认有钱，生硬地向我泼了一盆凉水，但我并没有因此算罢干休，我又找到了刚认识的这位老板的朋友，一起又来到了这位老板的家，老板依然是老板，并不那么爽快，然而看在朋友的份上，还是存了1万元。谁知这1万元刚存1个星期，这位老板又打电话，说有急用，我

赶紧把钱送到了这位老板的手中，老板见到风尘仆仆的我，不仅未接我送来的钱，反而又从家里拿出3万元交给我，笑着说：“你们的服务还算不错。”从此这位老板不仅成了我们的常客，而且每月存款余额都保留在5万元以上。

谈起储蓄我有使不完的劲、剪不断的情，几乎达到了痴迷程度。成天脑子想的是储源、本上记的是储户、往返跑的是储蓄，存款已成为我的第二生命。一年来，我把所有精力和心血都放在揽存事业上。在实际工作中，我对待客户象对待自己的亲人一样，真正以真心换真情。在一次傍晚下班回家途中，偶然遇到了一位老乡杨某，与其交谈过程中，无意间得知她的母亲过七十大寿，于是晚上我送上了自己真诚的祝福。轻轻的一份温情，深深打动了老乡的心。通过这种人情往来，加深了相互之间的农村信用社演讲稿:汗水拓宽揽存路辛勤耕耘收入丰

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.How pathetic!When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic.Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be “fulfilled”? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called “reality”? What is the reality actually?

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 Macao? 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.Ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands.Oh, quite a number of you!Actually, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task.Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished.How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear adjudicators, what do you think? C.S.Lewis once said, “You are never too old to dream a new dream.” So for our future, please dream and be unrealistic.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

able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment.One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves.One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be eliminated.One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day, our dream will defeat the reality!Thank you very much.主持人：Thank you.曹丰：Thand you.ASK：Now in the age of the Internet, reading books does not seem as important as it once was.Do you think people can learn as much on the Internet as they can by reading books? Which method do you prefer? ANSWER：Thank you very much.And hello again ladies and gentlemen.Actually, I don't really agree with the first sentence of this topic:“ In the age of the Internet, reading books does not seem as important as it was once.”Why? Why is it the case? Why is it the situation, ladies and gentlemen? Actually, Internet or books are just like tea or coffee.They are similar, but they are different.University students nowadays love to use the Internet to search for information when they are working with their essays.Like, last semester, when I was working with my physics essay, I logged into Google and I searched for “NEWTON” and all the laws and theories of Newton just popped out and I can choose whichever one I like to use.But when I walked into the library, all the books came out and I have to choose which one to read.How inconvenient!Maybe you can say at this moment,“Oh,Internet is better, books no use.” So I have to use the Internet,right?But let's see the things in another way.I love traveling a lot and I love to bring a book with me.And I love to read my Da Vinci Code when I was having my trip on a bus or on a ship.Actually,whenever it is, wherever you go, whatever you are doing, you can take out a book and read if you feel like doing so.Now who will bother to take a laptop and switch it on, and search for the Internet connection, and look for stories to read.How inconvenient!So at this very moment I think it's quite dangerous for me, because I think I'm unable to answer the question in the topic ”Which method do you prefer, Internet or books?" because I love the feeling of conjuring a hundred pages of Harry Potter, more than scrolling down the screen;but at the same time I love the feeling of searching the things, the speed of my searching for things on the Internet，my time in the library.So in this age of Internet, in this age of modernization, in this age of civilization, why do you have to force someone to choose between the Internet and books? I prefer using both of them.Thank you very much.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for encouraging us to be unrealistic dreamers(Thank you)and not surrender to Mr.Reality.(hehe..)With the traffic jam getting worse--especially in big cities--I'm actually very interested in your childhood dream:T o invent a device that can move people around easily.Is this still your dream? If not,why do you give it up? Is it because it is considered unrealistic? Thank you.ANSWER：Thank you very much.This is not my dream now.Not because it is(not), unrealistic.Maybe you can say it's unrealistic.But if I,my interest is still inventing this device, I will keep on trying my best to invent this decive.My changing of my dreams is because of the fact that I realized my interest does not lie in science.Now I am a law school student.But last semester, as I've just mentioned, I was working on my physics essay paper and actually last semester I was a student in the school of aerospace.Oh my god, aerospace!And I've changed my major to law school.And so the changing of my dream is actually because of the fact that I realize my interest lies in, maybe communicating with others, or having interactions with the others.Science is very fantastic, but it's not my piece of cake.Yes, so that's the reason.Thank you very much.ASK：Thank you very much for your speeches.Talding about Internet,I just want to know your view.Do you believe everything is ture on the Internet?If not,why not?

ANSWER：.Thank you very much.I don't believe everything is true in the Internet.This is a straight forward answer.And if not,why not?Because I don't believe them.And I have an experience of meeting someone on the Internet who claims to be a girl.Yes and,a very sad,sorry story for me.But yes,for this reason,I think I don't believe that everything on the Internet is true.But I will try my best to discover if that was true or not,or that was falsified or not.Thank you very much.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for your speeches.You were talking about dreams being realistic or unrealistic and your current dream is to graduate from law school.But what is your realistic or unrealistic dream after that?What do you want to use your graduation in law for? ANSWER：Thank you very much.Actually,my dream,as mentioned in the last part of my speech,is to share my feelings,share my dreams with the globe.And when all the people in this Earth have my dream,they will work

hard for the social betterment,I believe in that.So after I've graduated from law school,I think I will try my best to persuade the others to,to accept my dream,and that is exactly why I am here.I am here trying to persuade you all,I think you all,after listening to my speech,hopefully,you can try to understand my dream and that we are all a member of the global village,and we have to try our best to work hard for the social betterment of all.This is why I want to be,saying,speaking something here,and that is my goal--or realistic or unrealistic dream after I've graduated.I think I will try my best to du what I've said before.Thank you very much.

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.（personal anecdote）

How pathetic!When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic.Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be “fulfilled”? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called “reality”? What IS the reality actually? Ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real.It is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies.（main arguments）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.（counterargument）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;4)Disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and

intolerance IS the reality.Ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands.Oh, quite a number of you!Actually, ladies and

gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task.Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished.How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear 5)adjudicators,what do you think? C.S.Lewis once said, “You are never too old to dream a new dream.” So for our future, please dream and be unrealistic.（call to action）

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 6)sweltering with the horror of wars will be able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment.One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves.One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be 7)eliminated.One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day, our dream will defeat the reality!（Conclusion）Thank you very much.My Tour Agency

This morning, I would like to argue for true ecological tourism, or, ecotourism.To me, a true ecotour is a tour that allows us to express our passion for nature and for our cultural heritage.（No introduction）

I love traveling.One of my most memorable trips was climbing the Great Wall.There, I cherished seeing people of all races and ages gathered on this ancient edifice.I cherished

seeing these people smiling at each other, making way for each other, and reminding each other to watch their steps.While I love traveling, I'm also sad to see the damage tourism has done to nature and to our historical relics.Many tour agencies like to label their business “ecotours”.But they have cut down trees and filled up rivers in order to build roads, hotels and cable cars so as to attract tourists.And on their tours, some people pick flowers, catch birds and throw away food that might poison animals.This is not ecotourism at all.True ecotourism involves responsibility.While we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should also help protect it.Here let me share an experience.Once, I joined others as young volunteers in an outing.The excursion took us to the peak of a mountain where we got a beautiful view of the city.We were, however, not ordinary tourists.As we were climbing, we were also picking up the trash left on the ground by other climbers.Finally, we carried, in large bags, all the trash down the mountain.The excursion was exhausting, but I believe, after this experience, not a single one of us will ever litter any tourist spot.Moreover, when we were cleaning up the mountain slope, we caught eyes of many others.Some of them might see us as foolish, but more of them, I believe, will take note of the need to protect the environment.My experience was one of an ecotourist.We took, but we also gave.However, on the idea of ecotourism, there are many misunderstandings.I once

telephoned several travel agencies to inquire about ecotours.And here is how it went:“Hello!”

“Hi, I'm interested in the ecotour you've advertised.”

“Oh, yeah, ecotour.”

“I'm wondering if we should do anything special as ecotourists.”

“I'm sorry? Oh, nothing… Just enjoy the scenery.”

Every conversation ended up with “enjoying the scenery.” No one mentioned “protecting the wildlife,” “respecting local customs,” or “preparing a bag for garbage.” None of them made any mention of the obligation and responsibility on the part of tourists.Like other students, I have had many dreams of what I would like to do after graduation.One of these dreams is to run a travel agency.In this travel agency, I would do three things: call to action

First, I would like to have a staff of people who love nature as they love their mothers and can pass on to the customers the same kind of love.Second, I would like to let the customers appreciate the beauty of nature in those natural reservations, safari parks and wild forests, and show them how they can contribute in return for the air, water and nourishment that nature provides.Last but not least, I'd encourage the customers to work as volunteers as I once did.They would live close to nature by cleaning up the natural resorts and planting trees as mementos of their visit.I still remember when I was standing on the top of the Great Wall, I could see in some distance many bare mountains with no trees, nothing green.It is my dream that one day I would organize tours for areas that are suffering from erosion and deforestation, and we would plant trees there.Ecotourism should be an experience of learning and offering-it

should not be just seeing the famous sites and posing for photos.On the flag of my agency, I would like to print this motto:!

Take nothing away except memory;leave nothing behind except your trees.Join my tour, my dear friends!It will make China green-and make this world a better place to live.Thank you very much.What was the Topic of the speech?What was the style of Intro?Style of Body?

A student asked me a couple of questions which I answered hurriedly as I was going to another class.They were good questions, so I thought I'd restate my answers for the class.Student Question:Do we have to come up with a new argument for Body III, counter-argument?

Teacher Response:No.Remember that your counter argument in Body III is about giving a retort to a counter-argument to your topic.So, in Body I and II you have 2 arguments and supporting statements regarding your topic.This is different than Body III.In Body III you don't have to give a new argument to support your topic.In Body III,you do have to explain why the counter-argument is wrong.You can do this by using a narrative figure(ex.historical or famous person narrative)or statistics or other facts.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.Counter Argument: Some studies say, doing homework is a waste of time.A Harvard study claims that doing homework is a waste of time and you can't learn from doing homework.Retort to Counter Argument: 1)This study is wrong.Have you heard of Albert Einstein?Einstein read books and research papers and calculated formulas everynight.He called it his homework.That's how Einstein discovered the theory of relativity.OR2)Yale and Princeton studies show that doing homework for 3 hrs every night is the best way to learn.Student Question:What is the difference between my arguments(Body I&II)and my practical steps(Body IV)?

Teacher Response:topic.Your practical steps are different and they are not arguments.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.(General Statement)Support to Argument I:

Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.(General Statement)Support to Argument II:

Counter Argument:(see above)

Practical Steps: Now that you know how doing homework will help you in life, you may ask yourself how do I do it?1)Set a daily schedule.Make a set time everynight for at least 3 hrs for study.2)Get a course curriculum from a teacher at the beginning of classes.For each chapter, Preview.Study.Review.------------------

Of course.My examples are short.In your actual speech you will have to be more detailed.Hope this helps.Cheers,Arthur
