21世纪全国英语演讲比赛

第一篇：21世纪全国英语演讲比赛

Good afternoon,ladies and gentlemen:

下午好,女士们,先生们:

.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

。我有一个梦想。我想发明一个装置,能带给你从一个地方到另一个在任何时间在所有。当我在中学

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 contries 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 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 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,the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day,our dream will the reality!Thank you very much.学校。我的梦想是要学习在我心目中理想的大学。当我终于进了大学,我的梦想是毕业生怎样可怜啊!当我们长大,我们的梦想越来越变得更realistic.why吗?为什么我们必须改变我们的梦想。所以为了让它是“完成”?为什么我们要投降的所谓的“真实”?实际上情况怎样?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,曾经是一个人类的梦想了数千年之久。一百年以前,“人不能飞”还被认作“事实”。现在,如果那是真的现实,莱特兄弟做了什么?你们当中的一些人是如何去澳门吗?只有当我们相信“现实并不是现实我们能一起翱翔了我们的梦想。人们说我们的未来将是一个现实之间的战斗,我们的梦想。而且,如果不幸。Mr.Reality赢得了这场战争,我找不到未来的人类。艾滋病不会被治愈的,因为这是现实,人们生活在不发达的国家将会遭受饥饿,因为这是现实永远,不同国家之间的争议解决这永远也不会被人误解和异端,才是现实。女士们,先生们,你们中有多少人有一个梦想,能够赚很多钱吗?请举起你的手。哦,相当多的你!实际上,女士们,先生们,这不是一个梦想,但一个任务,我们每一个人都要

living.right吗?不管怎样,我希望能够顺利完成任务。你们当中有多少人认为你已经完成你的梦想,你别梦了吗?亲爱的诸位评判员,你是怎么想的?陈锦生刘易斯曾说:“你永远不会太老了,不能再梦想一个新梦想。“所以对我们的未来,请梦想成为现实。现在我是一名大学生,我的目标是要毕业,优点。但同时,我有一个梦深深植根于我们的未来。有一天,人们生活的地区现在已经有着可怕的战争能够坐在他们的家庭和享受的每一时刻。有一天,人们从富裕国家愿意分享他们所拥有的和那些从贫穷国家,并且那些贫穷的国家将最终能够使自己快乐的生活自己。有一天,地球将分享我梦想时,我们都会有助于使我们的梦想成真。有一天,我们的梦想会现实!非常感谢你。

a psalm of life

Tell me not, in mournful numbers,”Life is but an empty dream!“for the soul is dead that slumbers,And things are not what they seem.Life is real!Life is earnest!And the grave is not its goal;”Dust thou art, to dust returnest, "Was not spoken of the soul.Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,Is our destined end or way;But to act, that each to-morrowFind us farther than to-day.Art is long , and Time is fleeting,And our hearts, though stout and brave,Still, like muffled drums, are beatingFuneral marches to the grave.In the world's broad field of battle,In the bivouac of Life,Be not like dumb, driven cattle!Be a hero in the strife!Trust no Future,howe'er pleasant!Let the dead Past bury its dead!Act,-act in the living Present!Heart within, and God o'erhead!Lives of great men all remind usWe can make our lives sublime,And , departing , leave behind usFootprints on the sands of time;Footprints, that perhaps another,Sailing o'er life's solemn main,A forlorn and shipwrecked brother ,Seeing, shall take heart again.Let us , then, be up and doing,With a heart for any face;Still achieving, still pursuing,Learn to labour and to wait.生命的颂歌

告诉我不要在哀伤的诗句:“人生呵,无非是虚梦一场!“因为沉睡的灵魂如死一般,事物的表里并不一样。人生是实在的!人生是热烈的!和坟墓而不是它的目标“;你是尘土,应归于尘土”,此话指的并不是我们的灵魂。既不是享乐,也不是悲伤,是我们注定的目标或道路;而是行动,每一个明天每天不断前进,蒸蒸蒸日上。艺术是永恒的,时间则是瞬息即逝的,我们的心勇敢又坚强,还是喜欢闷闷的鼓,是徒劳无益的葬礼游行坟墓。在世界广泛的战场,在这辽阔的世界战场,别做无言的牲畜任人驱赶,做一名英雄汉立马横枪!信任别指望未来不管多可爱!让死亡的过去永远埋葬!行动,-act在此时此刻!心灵胸怀一颗心头顶有上苍!伟人的生活都提醒我们可以使我们的生活变得崇高,离开人间时,我们留下了岁月沙滩上的足迹;脚印,那也许另一个,航行在人生严峻的重要,见到我们的脚印,又会满怀信心。让我们起来干吧,带着一颗对任何的脸;不断地获得不断地追求,要学会苦干和耐心等待。

高级版（见见高手！）第八届21世纪杯全国英语演讲比赛冠军---顾秋蓓演讲稿 a scene to remember good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen: today i would like to begin with a story.there was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from america to africa to do a census about mountain gorillas.these gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world;this put them severely under threat of poaching and being put into the zoo.she went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures.she witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged weve ever been, where in the very depth of the african rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddled their babies.今天，我想首先用一个小故事。曾经有一个物理治疗师谁亲赴从美国到非洲做一个关于山地大猩猩普查。这些大猩猩是对游客的吸引力，主要来自世界各地，这使他们严重不足的偷猎威胁，目前到动物园付诸表决。她去了好奇，但她看见她的决心，增强她的一生奉献为这些美丽的生物战斗。她亲眼目睹的场景，场景带我们到一个地方，我们从来没有影像，我们经历过的，其中在非洲热带雨林的深处，树木，花卉，蝴蝶，大猩猩包围的母亲拥抱自己的婴儿。

yes, thats a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called gorillas in the mist, based on a true story of mrs.diana fossey, who spent most of her lifetime in rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.是的，在我最喜欢的电影之一难忘的场景，呼吁在薄雾大猩猩的基础上，戴安娜弗西夫人，谁在此度过了一生中最卢旺达保护，直到她生命的最后的生态环境有真实的故事。to me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our eco-environment.对我来说，电影，不仅提供了一个难忘的场景，而且也是一个永恒提醒我们，我们不应该在发展我们的生态成本，环境，旅游业行为。deforestation to heat lodges are devastating nepal.oil spills from tourist boats are polluting antarctica.tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to u2 on walkman and wear nike and reeboks.今天，我们生活在一个繁荣的世界，但仍这么多的新问题的威胁。一方面，旅游业作为21世纪最有前途的产业之一，为我们提供了极好的机会都没有看到人都会看到，并前往任何地方有去。这已成为一些人的生活方式，并已被证明是在国内生产总值增长的推动力。它的神奇，把一个繁荣仙境1落后的小城。但在另一方面，可能会出现很多问题-自然景观不自然了。砍伐森林的热小屋是毁灭性的尼泊尔。旅游船油泄漏污染是南极。部落的人丧失了本土音乐和服饰，听取他们对随身听u2和穿耐克和锐步。all these appalling facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been eroding our resources.encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the united nations has made 2002 the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the worlds attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our environment.所有这些令人震惊的事实使我们认识到，我们不能再袖手旁观，什么都不做，因为它认为非常侵蚀了我们的资源。令人鼓舞的是，全球旅游的爆炸性增长已经把旅游业再次在聚光灯下，这就是为什么联合国2002年提出的生态旅游首次提请全世界注意旅游业的好处，但也其能力，破坏我们的生态环境。now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations are receiving donationsfrom housewives, plumbers, ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and invalids.some of them cannot afford to send the money but they do.these are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals, who are suffering from ecological damage in their neighborhood.why? because they care.because they still want their mother nature back.because they know it still belongs to them.现在每年有很多地方ecoenvironmental保护组织接受捐赠-大笔记，笔记，甚至小硬币-从家庭主妇，管道工，救护车司机，售货员，教师，儿童和残疾人。其中一些人可没有钱给的钱，但他们这样做。这是谁驾驶的出租车，谁在医院护士，谁从他们所在地区的生态破坏的痛苦。为什么？因为他们的照顾。因为他们仍然希望他们回到大自然。因为他们知道它仍然属于他们。

这种感觉，我有，女士们，先生们，是当它的感觉，喜欢这种气味，而且看来，这一切都从一个场景来记住，一个场景回顾和珍惜。the other night, as i saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs.i found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to something else, someplace else, a place remembered, a place untouched, a field of grass where no one seemed to have been except the deer.有一天晚上，我看见月亮徘徊在土地和前被送进了无形的，心里却充满了歌曲。我发现自己轻轻哼唱，而不是音乐，而是别的东西，别的地方，一个地方记住，一个地方不动，一个草地，再没有人似乎除了鹿被。and no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our minds, theres always a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it.不管我们是谁，我们做什么，而且我们去，在我们的脑海，总有一个场景要记住，一个值得努力保护，并争取的场景。

DREAM——A world-changing word!

Hello, everybody!it is my great honor to be here and share my idea with you.Today, I will talk something about DREAM——A worldchanging word.“What do you think is the word that has really changed our world ?”When I was asked about this question for the first time，without thinking a second time, a word flashed into my mind ——DREAM , D-R-E-A-M.People dream more or less about different things，to be a teacher，a doctor，a scientist，a businessman and so on.All the people who have dreams should be respected, because Dreams make the world go around.We're growing greater with our dreams.All big men are great dreamers in their youth.Not only does Everyone have a dream, but also everything starts as one’s daydream.Martin Luther king had a dream.He desired for a future where both blacks and whites would coexist harmoniously as equals.By speaking the way he did, he educated, he inspired, he informed not just the people there, but people throughout America and unborn generations.He pushed forward the pace of black American society to the racial equality.Thomas Edison had a dream.He dreamed of a lamp that could be operated by electricity, begenning where he stood to put his dream

into action, and despite more than ten thousand failures, he stood by that dream until he made it a physical reality!And today, his dream lights up the whole world at night.Walt Disney had a dream, which, in itself, wasn't unusual--he was always dreaming.He dreamed of making the first animated feature film, and of building an amusement park where parents, together with their kids, could enjoy themselves.Walt Disney empowered his dream and today, Disneyland, Disney world and Disney theme parks attract around the world thrill millions of visitors each year.John F.kennedy had a dream.He wanted to land a man on the moon and return him safely to the earth so as to restore faith in the American way of life.John F.kennedy empowered his dream and 8 years later Neil Armstrong stepped on the face of the moon.The moon landing certainly gave Americans a newly-founded confidence.Dream---A world-changing word? Yes ,I will say so ,won't you ?Youth is a special life-relaying station , the growth with the worry ,the life feeling become aware happily with the dream ,collecting a unique youth melody here.We decide.We choose.And as we decide and choose, our lives are formed.In the end, forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.And most important, we are the one we choose to be.It is easy to waste our lives ,our days ,or our minutes.It is easy to

exist than to live.So hold fast to your dreams, For if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird, which cannot fly.Hold fast to your dreams, For when dreams go away, life is a barren field, Frozen with snow.I hope you,he,and I, everyone will have a dream!

Thank you a lot.

第四篇：全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿

全国大学生英语演讲比赛演讲稿

im grateful that ive been given this opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well.though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still represents, i believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past 15 years.in my elementary years, there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons.the teacher asked me to help her, and it was obvious that she expected a lot from me.but as a young boy, restless, thoughtless, i always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself.one day before the final exam, she came up to me and said, could you please explain this to me? i want very much to do better this time.i started explaining, and finished in a hurry.pretending not to notice her still confused eyes, i ran off quickly.nat surprisingly, she again did very badly in the exam.and two months later, at the beginning of the new semester, word came of her death of blood cancer.no one ever knew about the little task i failed to fulfill, but i couldnt forgive myself.i simply couldnt forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, why didnt you do a little more to help me, when it was so easy for you? why didnt you understand a little better the trust placed in you, so that i would not have to leave this world in such pain and regret? i was about eight or nine years old at that time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for i began to understand the word responsibility and to learn to always do my duties faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance which are the very foundation of human society.later in my life, i continued to experience many failures.but never again did i feel that regret which struck me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that i have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best i can.words like individuality and creativity are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and efforts.such is the era in which this generation ,grows and matures.such is the era in which this generation will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it.yet in the meantime, many problems still exist.we learn that crimes take place in broad daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting.we hear that there are still about 1 million children in this country who cant even afford to go to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on dinner parties and luxury cars.we buy shoddy medicines, or merely worthless junk in the name of medicines, that aggravate, rather than alleviate our diseases since money, many people believe, is the most important thing in the world that must be made, even at the expense of morality and responsibility.such an era, furthermore, demands, that we are a generation with a clear perception of our historical responsibility and an aggressive will to take action and solve the problems.history has long been preparing these qualities in this generation and it is now calling us forward to give testimony to our patriotism and heroism towards this nation and all humanity.standing here now, i think of the past 15 years of my life as an ordinary student.probably ill be an ordinary man for the rest of my life.but this doesnt discourage me any, for i know that with my sense of responsibility and devoted efforts to always strive, for the best, its going to be a meaningful and worthwhile life that i will be living.i cant ever forget that little girl in my class who couldnt had the same opportunities as any of us here to enjoy a wonderful life today and a hopeful world tomorrow.it is the sacred responsibility of this generation to face up to the challenges of the new century and to devote our sweat and blood, our wisdom and passion, to the historic cause of making this nation a greater and happier land for every one of us.we are not going to evade that responsibility.we are going to let people down.and people, far and near, will hear of us.frost will be brought to their backbones and tears to their eyes when our stories are told and retold, so let us go forth, my fellow members of this luckily chosen generation, and meet the new century in victory and glory.篇二：21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿

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 uest 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。
