第一篇:激情地生活配课件的演讲稿专题
各位领导、老师:
大家下午好!
就在今天下午开会前收到一天刚毕业的学生的短信,班长发的:老师我们走了,但是我们的心永远都在,在这个我们走过三年的校园,希望在老师的心里永远有一个我们的存在地方,高中三年,无悔一生,我们永远爱你一生一世。祝愿我们的母校蒸蒸日上,也祝愿我们所有的育才人端午节快乐。我忽然感慨万千,人的一生要找到一个托付终身的人很难,同样要找对一个一生为之奋斗不息的职业和工作同样很难,所以,一旦我们认为自己已经在做一件我们认为对的事情的时候,无论多么艰难,我们都要把她坚持到底,就像我们的育才中学一样,风风雨雨,历经坎坷,但是现在最终是前进的脚步永远向前。、时间总是在最繁忙的时候走得最快,高考也在昨天落下了帷幕,想起红色的五月,我们的育才中学也显得格外耀眼,现将5月18以来我们的大型活动在这里和大家逐一回顾。5月18日我们学校举办了大型招生推介会,尽管筹备时间很短,但是我们团结一致,我们精诚合作,所以照样我们轰轰烈烈开场,圆圆满满结束,5月25日我们再次邀请了国家教育部基础教育司原司长王文站先生来校做报告;5月27日上午我们举行了高三诚信高考教育;下午我们举行了2013年的招生知识竞赛;5月29日我们又举行了五月飞歌大型文艺演出,五月我们学校的基建基本完工,如果要加上六月,那就是我们又成功完成了学校三项考试中一向重头戏高考,现在我们可以简单一起回顾下。
我个人认为这些活动都成功举办有几点经验是值得推广的:
1、组织有方
尽管我们真正筹划的时间很短,但是我们的组织非常有序。每个活动有经过事先精心安排组织,每个活动都有相关的方案,所以尽管时间短,活动内容这么多,但是因为组织有方,所以忙而不乱。
2、团结合作
团结才会有力量,我们所有老师对这些活动都很重视,例如前期的温馨家园等活动正因为我们都重视了,所以当我们进入寝室检查的时候我们惊叹学生的创新设计能力,连一向要求严格的董事长都平平点头。因为团结,所以我们有力量,因为合作,所以我们不断创新。
3、各尽其职
每次活动我们都有明确的分工,一般情况下乔东旺主任负责卫生,何美胜主任负责布置,如果需要礼仪,徐志仙主任负责礼仪培训,王军主任负责拍照,后勤的各个老师负责联络整合,各班主任负责本班级卫生纪律,个科任老师负责课堂维护等等,所有老师各尽其职,在自己负责的工作岗位上兢兢业业,正是因为每个岗位都有人负责,所有每个活动才会有序、圆满。我想任何一次活动只要我们精心布置,认真准备,大家各尽其职,团结合作,就像有一次乔主任的讲话一样:众人划桨开大船,就像陆校长讲的一样:众志成城,荣辱与共,拥有这样的育才精神就一定能创造育才大业。
但是2013年的5月已经成为历史,2013年的6月高考也是昨天的故事,我们不能一味沉浸在昨天,就像昨天的太阳晒不干今天的衣裳一样,我们需要面对的是明天。我们还有很多的事情需要去做。
我们要会考,我们要期末杭州统测,我们要招生,任重而道不远
1、严格执行各个部门制定的方案
只有制定好科学周密的计划,并且把相关方案落到实处,我们的每次活动才会成功。
2、发挥学生的主观能动性,让学生积极参与
多次的活动证明,只要充分发挥学生的积极性,让学生积极参与进来,往往他们能带给我们一些意想不到的惊喜,例如我们历届的文艺活动,我们的温馨家园寝室布置等。往年的招生
也是如此,一般只要老师和学生的关系比较亲密,学生从内心认可你这个老师,招生的时候往往会事半功倍,以前的张斌、曹露、王峰等,他们在招生的时候除了自己给老师带队,自己现身说法外还动员他们身边的人参与进来,形成一个团队的力量。要给学生开会,引导学生,给学生分工,要责任到人,同时还要学会检查,要检查要反馈要小结要整改。
3、自己要全身心地积极融入
这一点我可能要多说几句。我们都知道再多的言教不如身教。如果我们自己不带头,我们自己不积极,那么我们的学生我周围的人怎可能会积极起来。所以首先我们自己要有激情,要有状态,要奋斗,火车跑得快,全靠火车头带,我们就是我们学生的火车头。15万
2、和大家分享一个公式:
男人=吃饭+睡觉+挣钱猪=吃饭+睡觉,所以:男人=猪+挣钱,移项为: 男人-挣钱=猪。小 结: 不挣钱的男人和猪没区别。
女人=吃饭+睡觉+花钱猪=吃饭+睡觉。所以:女人=猪+花钱。移项为:女人-花钱=猪 小结: 不会花钱的女人和猪一样
尽管我们可能张口闭口谈钱是不是过于庸俗,但是早就有人说了这个社会金钱不是万能的,但是没有钱确实万万不能的,就像赵本山说的一样:人生最痛苦的事情就是人还活着,但是钱已经花完了。所以不管是男人还是女人,既然我们不能脱离社会生存,我们必须正是我们的现实:那就是我们要努力工作,努力赚钱。
3、前不久听过一个《青蛙爬铁塔》的寓言故事。讲的是一群青蛙准备爬向一个高耸的铁塔顶部,胜利者将被列入青蛙家族的光荣史册。比赛开始了,众蛙跃出了起跑线,向目标的方向冲去。这场壮观的比赛引来了无数的参观者,参观者你一言我一语地议论着。
“天啊!它们一定是疯了,别说是爬上铁塔了,就算是能跑到铁塔脚下也是天方夜潭。”“可不是嘛!上次我的一个朋友跑到半路就累死了„„”
“我听说曾经有一只青蛙都快爬到塔顶了,却掉下来摔死了,好惨啊„„”
观众们的议论声传到了参赛者的耳朵里。一只青蛙放弃了,它想:“那么多队员都失败了,我肯定也没戏。”又一只青蛙放弃了,它想:“既然有队员为此送命,那我弄不好也会遇难,还是算了吧!”
就这样,一只又一只青蛙放弃了比赛,最后,只剩下一只青蛙在拼命地坚持着,终于,它到达了塔顶。一阵如雷贯耳的掌声过后,青蛙记者跑上台想采访这位胜利者是如何坚持不懈、抵达成功的。然而,面对记者的提问,冠军显得目瞪口呆—原来,它是一只听不到任何声音的聋青蛙。
像那些放弃竞争的青蛙一样,我们又何尝没有被来自自己或他人的消极经验牵绊过脚步?静思过去,很多时候束缚我们的并不是自己的能力,而是经验。让我们静思一下,自己曾多少次因为别人的失败而放弃自己的目标,又曾多少次因为记忆中的失败而裹足不前。由此看来,面对有碍于我们成功的经验,我们难道不需要一些“视而不见,充耳不闻”的“盲聋”精神吗?
招生的锣鼓早就敲响,这场无声的双抢活动已经开始,行动起来,马上行动起来,拨打我们好不容易建立起来的那些老师的电话,行动起来,找我们关系最铁的学生亲密地交谈一次,把我们的关系网重新梳理一遍,行动起来,用我们的行动来证明我们的价值。最后我预祝2013年育才招生大满贯,也在此代表我们金华组的全体同仁郑重表态:一定竭尽全力,奋勇拼搏,克服困难,勇往直前,争分夺秒,全力以赴,苦战六月,誓创辉煌,学校给我任务115,我努力完成116.谢谢大家
第二篇:地震中的父与子(配课件)
五、教学过程:
(一)、复习旧知,导入新课
(板书:课题)同学们,上次我们初读了课文《地震中的父与子》,学习了生字词,了解了课文内容,那么,我们来回顾一下,课文主要讲了一件什么事?请生回顾。这节课,我们将深入地学习课文内容。在学习课文前,我们来看一段真实的历史记录。《地震中的父与子》这个故事发生在1994年1月17日,美国洛山矶发生大地震,30万人在不到四分钟的时间里受到不同程度的伤害。数条公路被震断,电力设施受阻,桥梁坍塌,山崩地裂,几万顶房屋倒塌,几万人无家可归,成千上万人被埋在废墟底下。就在这片废墟中,演绎了一个感人至深的故事,请大家齐读课题。
(二)、速读课文,抓住重点
1、课文中告诉我们这是一对怎样的父子?请大家快速浏览课文找一找。(插入课件)。
生答后把“了不起”写在“地震中”的下面。我们一起来读读这句话“这对了不起的父与子,无比幸福地紧紧拥抱在一起”。(插入课件,“了不起”加红)。
2、那为什么说这是一对“了不起”的父与子呢?让我们默读课文,画出有关的句子,可以在你感受深刻的地方写下自己的体会。(插入课件)开始吧!
三、品读词句,体会父亲的“了不起”。
(一)、重点从拯救时间的漫长和艰难体会父亲的“了不起”。
1、划好的同学请举手!谁来说说,那些句子说明了父亲的“了不起”。
(板书:父)
2、请学生朗读找到的相关句子,并询问:他找对了吗?好,这里有两句话,请同学们自由读读第一句,看你感受到了什么?(课件出示学生读的相关句子:他挖了8小时、12小时、24小时、36小时,没人再来阻挡他。
生答:体现了父亲挖的时间很长,挖得很艰难,也说明父亲很坚强,他很想救出自己的孩子,很爱自己的孩子。
3、是呀,父亲在这不吃不喝、不休息的36小时中都在做着什么?
生答:在废墟里不停地挖。
4、同学们,36小时啊,那是两个白天和一个夜晚啊!也就是五十多节语文课呀!父亲就这样弓着背,不停地挖呀挖,你们看:(课件出示句子)
师:8小时过去了,生:父亲在废墟里不停地挖
师:12小时过去了,生:父亲在废墟里不停地挖
师:24小时过去了。
生:父亲还在废墟里不停地挖
师:36小时过去了,生:父亲仍然在废墟里不停地挖
5、要是我,会直接写父亲挖了36小时,那么是课文中这样写好,还是我这样写好呢?为什么?(插入课件对比朗读)那么谁能通过朗读,来体现出父亲挖的时间很长,挖得很艰辛呢?
抽生朗读,师评价:我听出来了,你在读表示时间的词语时有强调的意思,你为什这样读?
6、生答:这句话是通过写父亲挖的时间之长、之艰难来体现父亲伟大的爱和坚定的信念的。(趁机板书:坚定信念)
接着我们再来品味下一句,请两组同学来读。
7、在这句话中,哪些词让你感到心灵的震撼?请划出来,说说为什么?请同学们联系实际谈一谈。(满脸、布满、不堪、到处)
8、对呀,在这漫长的36小时中,父亲经历的艰难险阻又何止这些呢?让我们随着时间的推移,展开大胆的推测,回到地震的现场去。
(出示句子:8小时过去了,你看到了——(你看到了父亲的手被瓦砾扎破了,脚被石头砸伤了,但他顾 1
12小时过去了,你看到了——
24小时过去了,你又看到了——
36小时过去了,你又看到了——
9、从同学们看到的这一个个镜头中,你有了哪些新的感受?
顺势小结(板书:不顾一切)
10、我们知道,上一句是通过写父亲挖的时间之长、之艰难来体现父亲伟大的爱的,那么这一句是通过描写父爱的什么来体现父爱的了不起呢?(生答:外貌描写)
11、那么请同学们通过朗读把这种情感表现出来吧!(可以生生赛读,教师换语调对比读、配乐读等)
12、那么父亲为什么会有那么坚定的信念,会不顾一切地去挖掘呢?
带出中心句:因为父亲说过:“不论发生什么,我总会跟你在一起!”(板书)
(二)、从处境的危险体会父亲的了不起
1、是啊,因为父亲对儿子说过:“不论发生什么,我总会跟你在一起!”所以父亲整整挖了38小时,但在这38小时中为什么没有人来再来阻挡他?联系上下文看看。
答:因为太危险了;因为劝他不听;因为人们不忍再来打扰他。。
2、你从哪里看出来?(生答:第5、第6、第8自然段)
3、指名读出相关句子。
4、是的,其他人都绝望了,而且当时也太危险了,随时可能有余震,随时可能发生大爆炸。情况这样危急,要是你是好心人,要是你是消防队长,我就是父亲,请你来劝阻我吧!还有谁愿意当警察,再来阻挡我。(演读人物对话)
5、通过刚才一番人物对话,你体会到为什么父亲会这样?
(生答:他坚信儿子还活着,他不顾个人安危,一心想救出儿子)
6、可有人却说,父亲精神失常了。同学们,你们同意这种说法吗?结合课文内容说说你的理由。
回答:他是失常了:因为(1)、课文第五自然段中说父亲双眼直直地看着好心人;(2)、当其他父母都绝望的离开了,只有他还埋头接着挖;(3)、接连38小时,他不吃不喝不睡。这都不是正常人应该有的。但他又不失常:因为他对孩子说过:“不论发生什么,我总会跟你在一起!”所以有一种伟大的父爱的力量充溢着他的全身,使他不顾一切,克服巨大的困难,一心想救出孩子。这也正是他了不起的地方。
7、有感情的齐读5—11自然段
(三)、从心理体会父亲的“了不起”
1、是啊!父亲这样拼命的救孩子,除了他爱孩子,还有他对孩子有过承诺,这个承诺就是刚才讲到的(指读板书:不论发生什么,我都会和你在一起)
出示:废墟 绝望 阻挡 危险 摇头叹息„„
师:面对这么多的困难,父亲停止挖掘了吗?
生:他仍然在埋头接着挖。
师:为了和儿子在一起,父亲克服了哪些困难呢?你能用“不论„„总„„”这样的句式表达出来吗? 出示:不论„„总„„
(1)不论废墟下的儿子是死是活,我总要找到他。(2)不论有多少父母绝望地离开,我总不会停止挖掘。
(3)不论有多少人阻挡我,我总会挖掘下去。(4)不论在废墟中挖掘有多么危险,我总会坚持挖下去。(5)不论挖多长的时间,我总要找到自己的儿子。(6)不论有没有人帮助我、理解我,我都要坚持挖下去。师:父亲的态度非常坚决。已经把生死置之度外。
师:总之,(生齐读)不论发生了什么,我总会跟你在一起!
3、是的,就因为父亲曾经对儿子有过这样的承诺,所以:
师:现在当父亲看到教学楼变成废墟,悲痛欲绝时,支撑他的就是那句话,(生接读中心句)
师:当人们都来劝阻,让他离开时,激荡在他心中的依然是那句话,(生接读)
师:当他伤痕累累,就要倒下时,给他力量的还是这句话,(生接读)
师小结:这句话给了父亲希望,给了父亲力量,这是他坚持到底决不放弃的原因,也体现了他对儿子深深
四、品读词句,体会儿子的了不起
1、当这位了不起的父亲挖到第38小时时,奇迹终于出现了,(点击插图),同学们,让我们合作读12—23段中人物的对话部分,你们读阿曼达的话,我读父亲的话,好,来!
2、从刚才父子相逢的那一幕中,你们从哪里看出了阿曼达的了不起呢?
(板书:子)谁把有关的段落读一读呢?(学生自由说后出示16段和23段,引导学生体会阿曼达的沉着冷静和先人后己的品格,以及他对父亲的信赖。
(1)、先分析16段(两个小组来读):你们说说阿曼达为什么了不起?
生答:我认为在长达38个小时的漆黑废墟下,没有水,没有食物,只有恐惧和危险,只有7岁的阿曼达在这种情况下却告诉同学们不要怕,坚持等爸爸来救他们。
(2)、大家想一想,在长达38个小时的漆黑废墟下,没得吃,没得喝,只有恐惧和危险,孩子们会怎么样?此时,阿曼达又是怎么想的?怎么说的?请四人小组讨论,待会请小组代表发言。(多媒体出示题目,教师巡视指导)。
生1答:同学们会很恐惧、很害怕,此时阿曼达回想:我一定要坚持住,因为爸爸说过,无论发生什么,他都会和我在一起。于是,他对同学们说:“大家不要害怕,我爸爸一定会来救我的,也能救大家!” 生2答:同学们可能会吓得大哭起来,喊着要爸爸妈妈,此时,阿曼达会想:我活着,爸爸一定也活着,我要等他来救我。于是,他对同学们说:“大家光哭是没有用的,只有安静地等待才对,我们要勇敢,要冷静!”
。。
(3)、透过这感人的场景,我们看到了一个怎样的阿曼达呢?
(学生说后板书:沉着勇敢)
(4)、指导学生有感情地读出阿曼达的沉着勇敢。(高兴、自豪的)
(可赛读、师范读等)
1、引导学生体会阿曼达先人后己的品格
(1)、请女生读23自然段,问:你们认为在这些文字中阿曼达的了不起体现在哪里?
生答:因为当他得到父亲的救援时,他首先想到的是“先让我的同学出去!”
(2)、那位同学能联系上下文并结合当时的情景来说说他的了不起呢?
生答:38小时在漆黑的废墟下,没得吃,没得喝,已经是体力不支了,而且废墟里随时有危险,早出去一分钟,就多一份安全的保障,他是把安全的让给了同学们,把危险留给了自己,实在了不起。
(3)、如果用一个词来概括阿曼达的这种精神,那么该用那一个词呢?
(生答后板书:先人后己)
师:对父亲的无限信赖让阿曼达充满了一定要活下去的信心和力量。坚信父亲会永远和自己在一起让阿曼达变得多么的了不起呀!请男、女同学分别读读这两段话。
出示16和23自然段。
师:这对了不起的父与子创造出了地震中的奇迹。请同学们齐声朗读课文的结尾。
五、总结全文,拓展延伸
师:是什么把地震中的父与子紧紧地联系在一起呢?
生:是父亲对儿子深沉的爱,是儿子对父亲的无限信赖,将地震中的父与子紧紧联系在一起。
师:课文中的哪句话最能让我们感受到父子情深呢?
生:不论发生什么,我总会跟你一起。
师:类似的话在课文中反复出现了几次?找到相关句子,读一读看看,这样写有什么好处?

Thirty college students across the country attended the Tenth 21st Century Cup National English Speaking Contest in Beijing on April 10.Eventually, Xia peng, from Nanjing University was named the champion.The second and third places went to Zhang Jing, a sophomore from China Foreign Affairs University, and Zhang A Xu, from Hong Kong polytechnic University, respectively.More than 1000 college students in Beijing are lucky birds to listen to the speeches on the spot in Friendship Hotel.Just make to it the finals, they had to get past 60 others speaking on “The impact of globalization on traditional Chinese values”.That was at the semi-final on April 8-9.What will Chinese college students think about the impact? Each contestant had his own take on the subject.Xia summed up globalization by saying: “It’s just controversial and hard to say whether it is good or bad.” Xia took the old wall of his city, Nanjing, as a metaphor.He spoke about the conflict over whether to protect the old walls or tear them down to represent the conflict of ideas.He suggested that people protect the wall as a valuable relic while tearing down the “intangible walls” of their minds that prevent communication.While some other students are more focusing on the impact of globalization on family relations, attitudes towards love, and job-hunting.Over the past 10 years, the national English speaking competition has given contestants a chance to speak on a variety of topics closely related to their lives.Chinese students become more open-minded and receive various ideas and thinking over the decade.Diversity becomes more obvious on campus, students have more opportunities to express and show themselves.It’s not an easy task for the contestants to win through the fierce competition.Owning to their passion, hard work and persistence, they finally succeeded in the contest.Liu Xin, the first champion of the national contest, is now an anchorperson of CCTV-9.Recalling the passion of study on campus, she said: “When you want to express your idea by a foreign language without finding a right way, you’re really upset.Then you have to encourage yourself, and after a long term of bitterness, suddenly you find you get the right way with joy.” With the champion title in 21st Century Cup, Liu attended the International public Speaking competition in London in May 1996 afterward and got the first prize historically.The winner in 2003 surprised the audience, since she came from accounting major instead of English major.Gu Qiubei, then 22 years old, was a senior in Shanghai Foreign Studies University.While being asked whether she had some good methods to learn English, she said: “Learn English with passion and enthusiasm.” Attracted by the greatness of English language, Gu even changed her major from accounting to English in her postgraduate study.The most important issue in English learning process she pointed out is personal interests.Only people interested in English benefit a lot from the learning methods and those with passion will finally achieve their dreams.When chief of global media giant Viacom Sumner Redstone gave a speech in Tsinghua University on his autobiography A passion to Win, he was asked what made him to restart his career at the age of 60, the 81-year-old media tycoon said: “Firstly, there’s a self-driving force in my deep heart, which keeps my passion to succeed and surpass others;secondly, I don’t think I’m too old to leave work, actually I love my work very much.”
Some of the contestants have achieved their dreams as Redstone;still others are on the way to their dream.With a passion to win, you will overcome obstacles and succeed at the end.I’m studying in a city that’s famous for its walls.people who visit my city are amazed at the imposing sight of its walls, especially when silhouetted against the setting sun with gold, shining streaks.The old, cracked bricks are covered with lichens and the walls are weather-beaten guards standing still for centuries.Our ancestors liked to build walls.They built walls in Beijing, Xi’an, Nanjing and many other cities, and they built the Great Wall, which snakes across half our country.They built walls to protect against enemies and evil spirits.This tradition has survived to this day: we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public.For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world to me.My perceptions, however, changed after I made a hiking trip to the eastern suburbs of my city.My classmates and I were walking with some foreign students.As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by tall trees, which formed a wide canopy above our heads.Suddenly one foreign student asked me, “Where is the entrance to the eastern suburbs?”
“We’re already in the eastern suburbs,” I replied.He seemed taken aback, “I thought you Chinese had walls for everything.” His remark set off a heated debate.At one point, he likened our walled cities to “jails”, while I insisted that the eastern suburbs were one of the many places in China that had no walls.That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this student.For instance, he told me that some major universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls.I have to admit that we do have many walls in China, and as we develop our country, we must look carefully at them and decide whether they are physical or intangible.We will keep some walls but tear down those that impede our development.Let me give another example.A year ago, when I was working on a term paper, I needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library.However, the librarian coldly rejected my request to borrow it, saying, “You can’t borrow this book, you’re not a student here.” In the end, I had to spend 200 yuan to buy a copy.Meanwhile, the copy in the law school gathered dust on the shelf.At the beginning of this semester, I heard that my university had started to think of unifying its libraries and linking them to libraries at other universities, so my experience wouldn’t be repeated.Barriers would be replaced by bridges.An inter-library loan system would give us access to books from any library.With globalization and China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.I know that globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.But one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to China’s tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their role in the modern world.And how about the ancient walls of mine and other cities? Should we tear them down? Definitely not.My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls.These walls attract historians, archaeologists, and many schoolchildren who are trying to study our history and cultural heritage.Walls have become bridges to our past and to the rest of the world.If the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great changes in the role of their walls.They are now bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all countries of the world.Our cultural heritage will survive globalization.

Definitely not.My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls.These walls attract historians, archaeologists, and many schoolchildren who are trying to study our history and cultural heritage.Walls have become bridges to our past and to the rest of the world.If the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great changes in the role of their walls.They are now bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all countries of the world.Our cultural heritage will survive globalization.
第五篇:激情演讲稿
雷锋精神,与时俱进
三月,一个充满着春意的季节;三月,一个踏满青春脚步的季节;三月,更是弘扬雷锋精神的季节。是的,三月的确是学习雷锋的月份。那么,三月之后呢?三月之后我们不难去想象,因为年年如此,岁岁相似。雷锋,雷风,三月刮过一场空。真可谓,辛辛苦苦几十天,一夜回到三月前。但是生活就是如此,生活中的很多事情就是这样,因为生活不是我们能去左右的。所以,生活中有很多事,我们也只是走了个形式、搞了个过场,应付了下上面。学生时代亦是如此,那么将来到社会上去了呢?我不敢去想象。
有很多人都说我们,是祖国的未来,是祖国的希望,我们从小就是听着这些话语长大的。我不知道今天还有多少人敢去以这种身份自居。我们憧憬着未来,仰望着明天,幻想着一切美好的事物,我们成天空洞的喊着“学习雷锋好榜样”的口号,但又有多少人做到了呢?又有多少人知道什么是雷锋精神呢?仅仅就是指助人为乐吗?仅仅就是指大公无私吗?难道雷锋离我们就那么遥远吗?不,其实一点也不。我觉得我们现在学习雷锋的形式就有很多很多很多,比如吃完饭自己把餐具放到指放点,出门看见陌生的人送去一个温暖的微笑,这些难道都不是吗?其实学习雷锋不是要你去做什么轰轰烈烈的大事,社会需要的是那种行为,因为行为是可以传播的。其实我们每个人都只要做到勿以恶小而为之,勿
以善小而不为,那么,又是一轮新的朝阳!
