經(jīng)典英文短篇演講之一

<The importance of smiling and kindness>

Ladies and Gentlemen, good evening.

Today I’d like to talk about the importance of smiling and kindness.

Life is like a mirror.

When you smile, people will smile back.

When you treat other people kindly,

they will treat you kindly in return.

Try to spend one day smiling and being kind

to everyone you meet.

You will see a big difference in your life.

If you keep on smiling and being kind,

smiling and kindness will become your habits.

If everyone tried to do this, the world would

be a kinder, brighter, and happier place.

Start smiling right away.

That’s all. Thank you.

<I want to change my life >

I work extremely hard every day, but I’m very tired. I need to work smarter, not harder.

I must find better ways to do my job.

I must find more time to enjoy life.

I know hard work is a part of everybody’s life. But I work too hard.

My hard work is ruining my health.

My hard work is killing me.

Other people have time for fun,

going to bars and going to parties.

All I do is get in my car and go to work every day. This life is too hard.

I need to make a fresh start.

<Life is about choices>

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I want to tell you something very important today. I want to tell you that life is about choices.

You can choose to be miserable

or you can choose to enjoy life.

You can choose to improve your health

or you can choose to destroy it.

I hope you will make correct choices.

I hope you will choose to

enjoy your family,

enjoy your friends,

enjoy your work,

and enjoy your everyday life.

Life is a gift

and we really should enjoy every minute of it.

Join the group of people who make good choices. Enjoy your life!

<The secret of happiness>

Ladies and Gentlemen,

today I’m going to talk about happiness.

Where does happiness come from?

It doesn’t come from other people.

It doesn’t come from material things.

It doesn’t come from having a lot of money and power. It doesn’t come from being popular.

It comes from giving love to other people.

It comes from giving your best effort to everything you do. It comes from getting satisfaction from helping other people. It comes from growing smarter and wiser every day. The happiness you feel is equal to the love you give. The more you give, the happier you will be.

<Three Tips about life>

Ladies and Gentlemen, good evening.

There are three things I want to talk about today. The first thing is, think before you speak.

Say positive things, don’t hurt other people with words.

The second thing is, treasure every breath.

Life is precious.

We shouldn’t take anything for granted.

The third thing is, nothing is impossible.

If you think you can, you can.

Never doubt yourself.

You can do anything.

These three things have helped me throughout my life. Thank you.

We must be thankful for every breath.

Chen Huijun

We each long to do something great with our life. But what is greatness? How can a person really make an impact on the world around them? How can we ex－perience the quality of life? The

definition of the qual－ity of life may differ from person to person. The way for people to achieve a quality of life may vary from one another.

However one thing is certain, the quality of life is measured by little things.

"Every day we're called to do small things with great love." Thus claimed the U.S. President Gorge W. Bush in his inaugural speech. Through touching every little thing, Helen Keller knew the outer world, and longed for three days to see to emphasize sharply the values of life.And I still remember my childhood dream was to become a millionaire so I could bring about a happy life to my parents. But now it seems that by frequent going back home, or a simple phone call to my family on a very ordinary day or a letter enclosed with a smiling picture of me makes thern even happier. How much greater difference can these little things make than a million yuan.

The so-called little things are merely the causes of great things; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of

departure, which generally speaking, decides the whole future of the quality of life.

To strengthen the relationship with my friends, I always wonder, how can it really work without our mu－tual understanding and support by communication. To show my sincere appreciation for my

teachers'persis－tence in giving the lectures when they are ill, what can be better than extending a cup of tea to them during the break or a piece of greeting words. To fulfill my obligation to society, I'd like to begin from giving my hands and showing my love to those in need.

It is by studying the little things that we attain the great art of having a quality life. Life is long, but no matter how long it takes me to go, I should and will cover it little by little and

reach the climax of my life at last, for I believe constant dripping wears away a stone.

So enjoy your life by doing the little things, for little things are what inspire great things.

Thank you!

點(diǎn)滴小事品味人生

陳惠軍

在漫長(zhǎng)的生命過(guò)程中，我們每個(gè)人都渴望著做一兩件偉大的事情。但是什么樣的事情才能算偉大呢？一個(gè)人的人生價(jià)值究竟能有多大呢？我們應(yīng)如何去體味人生的價(jià)值呢？這，我們不得不承認(rèn)，不同的人對(duì)人生價(jià)值有著不同的定義，不同的人獲取人生價(jià)值的途徑也不盡相同，但是，有一點(diǎn)卻是肯定的：點(diǎn)滴小事體現(xiàn)人生。

美國(guó)總統(tǒng)喬治·布什在他的就職演講中說(shuō)：每一天，我們都應(yīng)飽含深情地去做好每一件小事。作家海倫·凱勒只能通過(guò)觸摸生活中的每一種物品，來(lái)感覺(jué)和認(rèn)識(shí)這個(gè)豐富多彩的外部世界，在她的文章———《假如給我三天光明》中，她是多么渴望能得到光明去充分品味她的人生，哪怕只有三天！可是，這只是她的一個(gè)夢(mèng)想，無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)的。這使我想起我兒時(shí)的夢(mèng)想：有朝一日自己能成為一個(gè)百萬(wàn)富翁，那樣我就能讓父母過(guò)上快樂(lè)幸福的生活。但是，現(xiàn)在我發(fā)現(xiàn)，經(jīng)�；丶铱纯醋约喝找婺赀~的父母，在很普通的日子給家里打個(gè)電話或捎封信回家并附上自己一張面帶微笑的照片，也照樣甚至更能讓他們感覺(jué)到幸福和滿足。是的，這些小事所起的作用甚至是一百萬(wàn)元錢也做不到的。

事實(shí)上，我們所說(shuō)的小事恰好是那些偉大事情的萌芽和開(kāi)端，是決定一個(gè)有意義人生的旅程和起點(diǎn)。

我時(shí)常想，如果沒(méi)有最為簡(jiǎn)單的交流溝通和最起碼的理解與支持，我們就無(wú)法增進(jìn)朋友之間的情誼；而對(duì)于那些有病在身但仍在堅(jiān)持給學(xué)生上課的老師，課間如能為他們端上一杯清茶或遞上一張問(wèn)候的紙條，也能很好地表達(dá)出我們對(duì)老師的真誠(chéng)和感激之情；要履行自己對(duì)社會(huì)的責(zé)任和義務(wù)，我們不妨從小事做起，從給那些需要幫助的人以援助之手和真愛(ài)之心開(kāi)始。

也只有對(duì)點(diǎn)滴小事認(rèn)真對(duì)待，我們才能獲得一個(gè)真正有意義有價(jià)值的人生，因?yàn)辄c(diǎn)滴小事能煥發(fā)無(wú)窮光芒。路再長(zhǎng)，也長(zhǎng)不過(guò)我們的腳，水滴石穿，繩鋸木斷，只要我們腳踏實(shí)地一步一步向前走，我們定能達(dá)到人生的高峰。

讓我們的生命從做好每件小事開(kāi)始吧！因?yàn)閭ゴ笤杏�其中�?/p>

謝謝！

The Earth,the only Home for Human beings

Jiang Shengliang

Dear friends,

Good afternoon. I'm very glad to see you here. The topic of my speech is “The Earth, The Only Home For The Human Beings".

Do you know that dust storms had swept through North cities

several times this spring? Dust has enveloped the sun and turned the sky an eerie yellow. People haven't found a way to fight against the dust storms but to be in their homes and offices. Because a cloud of loess filled the whole sky, there were many traffic accidents, which loss in lives and property was beyond our estimates.

We know that China already produces 11 per cent of the world's greenhouse－gas emissions. We also know that the Huanghe River once dried up, the grassland of Inner Mongolia rapidly turns into desert and there are many cities where the water we live by is lacking. We can't forget that more than 4000 people who lived in London had been killed by thick black smog in the winter of 1952. We also are aware that nearly 50,000 species become extinct and 2.7 million acre lush, fertile cropland turns into barren land every year in the world...

These numbers are so startling; the scenes are too horrible to look at!

Of course, I am sure, everyone here like the blue sky and white clouds. There is no one who dislikes the clean river and verdant mountains extending a thousand li. We are eager to have a breath of fresh air freely. However, we have to deal with so much endless noise and breathe the air mixed up with dust. We have nothing to do but stride over so many sewage ditches...

This is the earth, our only homeland we human live on. It is the earth that supplies us with enough food, water and oxygen. It's also the earth that supplies us with deep enough atmospheric layer in order to protect us from the hurt of ultraviolet ray... Although the earth gives us all that she has, we still hurt her so deeply. She is covered all over with cuts and bruises. She is groaning and shedding tears. To our surprise, we human have been conscious that we will not survive if the earth remains to be hurt, but there is still so much sever deforestation and damage to the grassland. We still

waster raw materials, destroy forest for more arable land and don t save on water?

Wake up, wake up to reality. We have suffered so many heavy losses. Can t we come to realize our error? We must draw the lesson from them. We can t follow the same old road to ruin, and we can t sit here and watch our only home－the earth turning into another Loulan. Today, I stand here and want to call out at the top of my voice: the development of economy needn t pay the cost of

environment pollution. Please don t hurt our only home again. If the earth remains to be destroyed, if the land, water and atmosphere we lived by remains to be polluted, my dear friends, where will we go and live? So improving the environment is to save us human beings. Dear friends, let s begin to act now, act from us, act from trifles. I believe firmly that the earth will take on a new look if everyone tries one s best to do it.

My speech is over. Thank you!

地球，人類惟一的家園

親愛(ài)的朋友：

下午好！很高興在這兒見(jiàn)到你們。我今天演講的題目是：地球，人類惟一的家園。

不知大家有沒(méi)有聽(tīng)說(shuō)，今年春天沙塵暴已多次席卷了北方的大部分城市。塵土遮天蔽日，人們不得不呆在辦公室或家里。黃沙漫天，由此而造成的交通事故及損失更是無(wú)法估量。

我們知道現(xiàn)在中國(guó)排放出的溫室氣體已占全世界排放量的11％；我們也知道黃河曾一度斷流，內(nèi)蒙古草原正在急劇沙漠化，各大城市的生活用水也變得越來(lái)越緊張；我們不會(huì)忘記1952年冬天，倫敦有4000多市民死于一片濃黑的煙霧之中；我們還意識(shí)到世

界上每年大約有5萬(wàn)種生物正在悄悄絕跡，270萬(wàn)英畝的青草繁茂的草原和肥沃的土地正在變成寸草不生的沙漠??

觸目驚心的數(shù)字，慘不忍睹的一幕幕，無(wú)不讓人痛心！

是的，我相信，在座的各位，沒(méi)有誰(shuí)不喜歡藍(lán)天白云，沒(méi)有誰(shuí)不喜歡清澈見(jiàn)底的河水和綿延不絕翠綠的山脈，更是渴望能在純凈清新的空氣中自由自在地呼吸�？墒�，每天我們不得不面對(duì)無(wú)休無(wú)止的噪音，呼吸著充滿灰塵的毒氣，小心地走過(guò)臭氣熏天的污水地帶??

這就是地球——我們?nèi)祟愃�賴以生存的惟一的家園，是她供給我們生存所需的食物、水和氧氣，是她提供給我們大氣保護(hù)層，以免我們?cè)馐茏贤饩�的傷害??地球，我們惟一的家園默默地獻(xiàn)出了她所有的一切，而我們卻深深地傷害了她，遍體鱗傷的她正在痛苦地呻吟，正在傷心地流淚。更為可悲的是，我們?nèi)祟惷髦獋�害了她，明知傷害了她�?shì)必帶來(lái)威脅自身生存的惡果，可是他們還在繼續(xù)濫伐森林，亂墾草地；他們還不知道退耕還林，節(jié)約用水??

醒醒吧，醒醒吧，難道慘痛的代價(jià)和血的教訓(xùn)還不能讓我們清醒嗎？我們不能重蹈歷史的覆轍，我們不能讓我們惟一的家園——地球重演樓蘭的一幕！在這里，我要大聲呼吁：經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展并不一定要以破壞環(huán)境為代價(jià)，請(qǐng)不要再傷害我們的家！

如果我們的生存環(huán)境再這樣惡化下去的話，如果我們賴以生存的土壤、水和空氣再這樣被污染下去的話，同學(xué)們，我們?nèi)祟悓⑸夏牟拍苷业轿覀兊纳�存之地呢？所以拯救地球就是拯救我們�(nèi)祟愖约�，就是拯救我們的未�?lái)。同學(xué)們，讓我們行動(dòng)起來(lái)，從我做起，從小事做起。我堅(jiān)信，只要人人都伸出手，盡自己所能，我們定會(huì)重返那個(gè)鳥(niǎo)語(yǔ)花香、鶯歌燕舞、生機(jī)盎然的美好家園！

我的演講完了，謝謝大家！

My Definition of Failure

Mo Junhua

S－U－C－C－E－S－S. SUCCESS. Success is the catch-word of the times. It

goes without saying that almost all of us want to be successful. Like it or not, however, we must admit that it s not easy to achieve success. More often than not, we have to deal with its opposite, namely failure.

But first of all, what is failure? It is hard to define, because dif-ferent people have different answers. However, as far as I'm con-cerned, I think real failure is not to try hard.

It's commendable that you set your mind on the best and

con-stantly strive for it. At many times, however, it's unlikely that you'll do the best, because of the scarcity of No. 1 and because of the fact that the attainment of the very best involves many things, some of which are beyond your expectation. In addition to your own merit, that of your competitors also plays an important part. So it is a more sensible, but no less commendable thing for you to compete with yourself, not with others. You don t have to do best. But you should always try to do your best in whatever you are determined to do. If you have given it 100 percent, you are not a

failure, even though you are outplayed by others. Because you have given it 100 percent, there s nothing to regret, nor is there any need to blame yourself. Instead, you should give credit to yourself for trying.

I don t like finding excuses for our failures, because we haven t failed at all. Take myself for example. Last year, I eolled for the Sports Meet in my university and competed in the 3,000－meter race. I did this not because I m gifted in or good at running, but because I wanted to fulfill a childhood dream. I had been an

in-competent student of physical education or P.E., ever since I was a primary school student. As a weak student of P.E., I never got a chance to participate in a sports meet. I envied my classmates who were good at sports. I used to dream of becoming one of them and displaying my skills in a sports meet. After I entered university, I spent much of my spare time on physical exercises, such as running, the long jump. Although I can run much faster than before, I m not capable of winning a prize or a good place in a campus－wide run-ning competition. In spite of that, I still entered for the event,

be-cause I wanted to challenge myself and fulfill my athletic dream. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not going in for this race. But I chose to accept the challenge and face the difficul-ties. I trained hard for the race, so when I came out last but one in the competition, I didn t call my attempt a failure, because I had tried and struggled.

Real failure is not to try hard. “I will forgive myself if I fail; I won t forgive myself if I don't try”, because “It's better to have fought and lost than not to fight at all”.

Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic movement once said：“the most important thing in Olympic Games is not to win, but to take part, just like the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered, but to have fought well.”

But what if we did fail in something? Simple. First, don t panic, because failure is not the end of the world. As the English saying goes, he who falls today may rise tomorrow. Second, try, try again, because nothing is really over until the moment we stop try-ing. So long as we persist and never give up, we will succeed eventually.No failure is sweet. However, just as bitter medicine cures sickness, failure may prove to be very instructive, so long as we can put it in perspective. There is a saying that failure is the mother of success. It's natural for us to get depressed for a

certain period of time, but we shouldn't inflate the importance of our temporary setback and be disheartened by setbacks, even never recover. We should be undaunted by failures and motivated to strive

英語(yǔ)演講短文篇三：1分鐘英語(yǔ)演講短文

1分鐘英語(yǔ)演講短文

第一天：THE NEWSPAPER 報(bào) 紙

Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read it. It supplies us with a variety of news every day. It tells us the political situation of the world. If we form the habit of reading the newspaper, we shall (will) get enough knowledge to cope with our circumstances. 現(xiàn)今報(bào)紙擁有極大的價(jià)值，人人都應(yīng)該看它。它每天提供我們各種類類的消息。它告訴我們世界政治局勢(shì)。如果我們養(yǎng)成看報(bào)的習(xí)慣，我們就能得到足夠的知識(shí)來(lái)因應(yīng)我們的環(huán)境。 學(xué)生雖然每天須做功課，但他們至少應(yīng)該勻出一兩個(gè)小時(shí)來(lái)看報(bào)。哪些，他們不但能增加知識(shí)而且也能趕上時(shí)代�？偠�言之，看報(bào)對(duì)學(xué)生很有益處。

第二天：MY DAILY LIFE 我的日常生活

Though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try hard to adapt myself to it. Why? Because I intend to be a good student. I wish to render service to my country.

I get up at six o’clock every day. After I wash my face and brush my teeth, I begin to review my lessons. I go to school at seven o’clock.

After school is over, I return home. We usually have supper at seven o’clock.

Then I begin to do my homework. I want to finish it before I go to bed.

雖然我的日常生活十分單調(diào)，但我卻竭力設(shè)法去適應(yīng)它。為什么？因?yàn)槲掖蛩阕鲆粋�(gè)好學(xué)生，希望將來(lái)為國(guó)家服務(wù)。

我每天六點(diǎn)起床、洗臉?biāo)⒀篮�，就開(kāi)始復(fù)習(xí)功課，七點(diǎn)鐘我就去上學(xué)。

放學(xué)后，我就回家了。我們通常在七點(diǎn)鐘吃晚餐，之后我就開(kāi)始做家庭作業(yè)，希望在睡覺(jué)前把它做完。

第三天：A MODEL STUDENT 模范學(xué)生

Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not. So far as I know, everybody intends to be (become) a model student.

However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing. First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge. A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed. Secondly, he must remember to improve his health. Only a strong man can do great tasks. Thirdly, he should receive moral education. If his conduct is not good, no one will consider making friends with him.

你價(jià)意被稱為壞學(xué)生嗎？當(dāng)然不。就我所知，每個(gè)人都打算做模范學(xué)生。

然而，做模范學(xué)生卻不容易。第一，他必須盡力獲得知識(shí)（求知）。一個(gè)沒(méi)有足夠知識(shí)的人是不會(huì)成功的。第二，他必須記住促進(jìn)健康。只有強(qiáng)壯的人才能做大事。第三，他應(yīng)該接受道德教育。如果他品行不好，沒(méi)有人會(huì)考慮和他交朋友的。

第四天：HOW TO GET HAPPINESS 如何獲得快樂(lè)

There is no doubt that happiness is the most precious thing in the world. Without it, life will be empty and meaningless. If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points.

First, health is the secret of happiness (the key to happiness). Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life.

Secondly, happiness consists in contentment. A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress.

無(wú)疑的快樂(lè)是世界上最寶貴的東西。沒(méi)有它，人生將是空虛的而且毫無(wú)意義的。如果你希望知道如何獲得快樂(lè)，你須注意下面兩點(diǎn)。

健康是快樂(lè)的要訣。唯有身體強(qiáng)壯的人才能享受人生的樂(lè)趣。

快樂(lè)在于知足。一個(gè)不滿于現(xiàn)狀的人終是處在痛苦之中。

第五天：BOOKS 書籍

As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things. They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and strengthen our character. In other words, they are our good teachers and wise friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.

Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of books. It is true that we can derive benefits from good books. However, bad books will do us more harm than good. 如眾所周知，書籍教我們學(xué)習(xí)人生，真理，科學(xué)以及其它許多有用的東西。它們?cè)黾游覀兊闹�識(shí)，擴(kuò)大我們的心胸并加強(qiáng)我們的品格。換句話說(shuō)，它們是我們的良師益友。這是為什么我們的父母終是鼓勵(lì)我們要多讀書的理由。

讀書是一好事，但我們必須多加注意書的選擇。不錯(cuò)，我們能從好書中獲得益處。然而，壞書卻對(duì)我們有害無(wú)益。

第六天：A TRIP TO THE COUNTRY 鄉(xiāng)村游記

One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to the a trip to the country. She bade me take good care of him.

While we were walking along the road, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently. We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees. The scenery was indeed very pretty (beautiful).

When we felt tired, we returned home. We saw Mother (our mother) wait (waiting) for us at the door.

有一個(gè)星期日，我母親叫我?guī)�小弟弟去鄉(xiāng)村游歷。她吩咐我要好好照料他。

當(dāng)我們沿著道路行走的時(shí)候，太陽(yáng)燦爛地照耀著，微風(fēng)輕輕地吹著。我們看見(jiàn)美麗的花兒對(duì)我們微笑著，并聽(tīng)見(jiàn)鳥(niǎo)兒在樹(shù)上唱著悅耳的歌曲，風(fēng)景實(shí)十分美麗。

當(dāng)我們感覺(jué)到疲倦的時(shí)候，我們就回家了。我們看見(jiàn)母樣正在門口等候我們。

第七天：BE PATRIOTIC 要愛(ài)國(guó)

It is the duty of every citizen to make the country rich and powerful (To make the country rich and strong is...). In order to accomplish this object one must be patriotic (love his country). I consider this an unchangeable truth.

How can a student love his country (be patriotic)? I find my answer very simple and clear. He must study hard and store up knowledge so as to serve his (the) country in the future. If every student can do according to what I said, the country will certainly be rich and powerful.

要使國(guó)家富強(qiáng)是每個(gè)公民的責(zé)任。為了達(dá)到此目的，必須愛(ài)國(guó)。我認(rèn)為這是一條不易的定理。 一個(gè)學(xué)生如何才能愛(ài)國(guó)呢？我發(fā)覺(jué)答復(fù)很簡(jiǎn)單明了。他必須用功讀書并積儲(chǔ)知識(shí)以便將來(lái)服務(wù)國(guó)家。如果每個(gè)學(xué)生能按照我所說(shuō)的去做，國(guó)家一定會(huì)富強(qiáng)。

第八天：THE VALUE OF TIME 愛(ài)惜時(shí)光

An English proverb says that time is money. I consider it (this) wrong. Why? Because we all know that we can earn money be work but can not in any way get back time (in anyway). For this reason, we may (can) say that time is more valuable than money.

Many people do not know the value of time. It (this) is indeed a great pity. We must bear (keep) in mind that wasting time is equal to wasting your life.

英國(guó)有句諺語(yǔ)說(shuō)，時(shí)間就是金錢。我認(rèn)為這是不對(duì)的。為什么？因?yàn)槲覀兇蠹叶贾�道我們能夠用工作賺錢，但無(wú)論如何卻無(wú)法把時(shí)間爭(zhēng)取回來(lái)�；�于此種理由，我們可以說(shuō)時(shí)間比錢錢更寶貴。

許多人不知愛(ài)惜時(shí)光。這確實(shí)是可惜的。我們必須記住浪費(fèi)時(shí)間等于浪費(fèi)生命。 第九天：WHY SHOULD WE STUDY ENGLISH 為什么我們要學(xué)英文

If you want to ask me why we should study English, my answer will be simple and clear. Now let me enumerate the reasons one by one in the following.

In the first place, English has become an international language. If you know English, you van make a trip round the world without being misunderstood.

In the second place, most valuable books, newspapers and magazines are written in English. If you wish (hope) to get knowledge, you must learn English.

如果你要問(wèn)我們?yōu)槭裁次覀円獙W(xué)英文。我的答復(fù)很簡(jiǎn)單明了�，F(xiàn)在讓我來(lái)把我的理由一一列舉在下面：

英文已成為一種國(guó)際語(yǔ)言。如果你通曉它，你可以環(huán)游世界不會(huì)被人誤解。

大多數(shù)有價(jià)值的書籍，報(bào)紙和雜志都是用英文寫的。如果你希望獲得知識(shí)，你必須學(xué)習(xí)英文。 第十天：MY BIRTHDAY 我的生日

Yesterday was my birthday, so some of my classmates sent me presents. Mother prepared a tea party for me. I invited all of them to come and take part in it.

The tea party began at half past six. There were cold drinks and refreshments. We ate, talked and laughed. We felt that we were the happiest men in the world.

Time passed quickly. In a twinkling, the clock on the wall struck nine. We could not but say ―Good-bye‖ to one another.

昨天是我生日，所以有幾位我的同班同學(xué)送我禮。母親給我準(zhǔn)備一個(gè)茶會(huì)。我邀請(qǐng)他們都前來(lái)參加。

茶會(huì)下午六點(diǎn)半開(kāi)始。有冷飲和點(diǎn)心。我們又吃又談?dòng)中ΑＮ覀冇X(jué)得是世界上最快樂(lè)的人。 時(shí)間過(guò)得很快。轉(zhuǎn)瞬間，墻上的鐘敲九點(diǎn)了。我們不得不互道再見(jiàn)。

第十一天：HOW TO SPEND SUNDAYS 如何消度星期日

Some of us always spend Sundays aimlessly. We can seldom derive profits from the valuable hours (time) of Sundays. This is indeed a great pity. Though Sundays are set aside as a day for rest, we must make good use of them.

We know that our school lessons are usually not sufficient. We should often utilize Sundays to read reference books. In this way we will increase our knowledge. Besides, we must be engaged in sports or outing so as to strengthen our bodies.

我們?cè)S多人終是把星期日毫無(wú)目的地消度掉。這確實(shí)是十分可惜。我們很少能從星期日的寶貴時(shí)光中獲得益處。雖然星期日是被指定為一個(gè)休息的日子，但是我們卻應(yīng)好好利用它。 我們知道我們學(xué)校的功課通常是不夠的。我們應(yīng)時(shí)常利用星期日來(lái)閱讀參考書。如此我們的知識(shí)就會(huì)增加了。此外，我們必須從事運(yùn)動(dòng)或郊游以便強(qiáng)壯我們的身體。

第十二天：HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY 誠(chéng)為上策

There is an English proverb which says (saying) ―Honesty is the best policy.‖ It signifies the importance of honesty.

What are the benefits of honesty? If you are honest to others, they will be honest to you in return. When you are sad, they will comfort you. When you are in trouble, they will help you.

There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and (be) regarded as a public enemy.

英國(guó)有一句諺語(yǔ)說(shuō)“誠(chéng)為上策”。它說(shuō)明了誠(chéng)的重要性。

誠(chéng)的益處是什么？如果你對(duì)他人誠(chéng)實(shí)，他們也會(huì)對(duì)你誠(chéng)實(shí)作為報(bào)答。當(dāng)你憂悉的時(shí)候，他們會(huì)安慰你。當(dāng)你是處在困難中的時(shí)候，他們會(huì)幫助你。

無(wú)法在這里數(shù)述不誠(chéng)實(shí)的害處。一言以蔽之，一個(gè)不誠(chéng)實(shí)的人會(huì)被人看輕的而且被看作為一個(gè)公敵。

第十三天：HOW EXERCISE HELPS 運(yùn)動(dòng)的利益

If our bodies are not strong, our spirit to do things will certainly be quite dull. And at the same time, we are lack of energy (ies) to study. Diseases will only attack the weak, but not the strong. Why are our bodies not strong? Because we do not pay attention to exercise. For this reason, we students must often take different kinds (sorts) of exercise in the gym.

Exercise helps us (to) strengthen our bodies and avoid disease. It also teaches us cooperation, for most exercise is played by team.

如果我們的身體不強(qiáng)壯，我們做事的精神一定會(huì)十分遲鈍。而且同時(shí)，我們也缺少足夠的精力來(lái)讀書。疾病只為侵擊體弱的人而不是強(qiáng)壯的人。

為什么我們的身體會(huì)不強(qiáng)壯呢？因?yàn)槲覀儾蛔⒁膺\(yùn)動(dòng)�；�于此種理由，我們學(xué)生必須時(shí)常在運(yùn)動(dòng)場(chǎng)做不同種類的運(yùn)動(dòng)。

運(yùn)動(dòng)幫助我們強(qiáng)壯身體并避免疾病。它也教我們合作，因?yàn)榇蠖鄶?shù)的運(yùn)動(dòng)都是團(tuán)體游玩的。 第十四天：THE BENEFITS OF TRAVELING 旅行的益處

I am always interested in traveling. My reasons are quite (extremely) simple and clear. If anybody is not satisfied with my viewpoint(s), I shall be greatly surprised at his ways of thinking.

In the first place, traveling increases our knowledge. Only by traveling can we see （因?yàn)橛茫╫nly）開(kāi)頭，主動(dòng)詞須顛倒）things outside our home town.

In the second place, traveling is good to our health. While we are traveling, we usually exercise our bodies.

In conclusion, I earnestly hope that everybody must seize (grasp at) the opportunity of traveling. 我對(duì)旅行終是感覺(jué)有趣。我的理由非常簡(jiǎn)單時(shí)了。如果任何人對(duì)我的觀點(diǎn)不滿意的話，我將對(duì)他的想法會(huì)大大吃驚。

旅行增加我們的知識(shí)。只有藉旅行我們可以看到我們故鄉(xiāng)以外的東西。

旅行對(duì)我們的健康有益。當(dāng)我們旅行的時(shí)候，我們通常運(yùn)動(dòng)我們的身體。

第十五天：HOW TO BE A GOOD CITIZEN 如何做一個(gè)好公民

My aim is to become a good citizen so as to be able to render service to the (my) country. However, to become a good citizen is not an easy thing. He has many duties to fulfill.

The first duty of a good citizen is to love his country. He is to (must) be ready to sacrifice even his own life for the country.

His second duty is to obey the law and help the government (to) maintain order. If everybody can do so, the country will be rich and strong (powerful).

我的志向是做一個(gè)好公民以便能給國(guó)家效力。然而，做一個(gè)好公民不是一件容易的事情。他有許多責(zé)任要盡。

一個(gè)好公民第一件責(zé)任是愛(ài)他的國(guó)家。他須準(zhǔn)備為國(guó)家犧牲自己的生命。

他第二件責(zé)任是服從法律并且?guī)椭�政府維持治安。如果人人都能這樣做的話，國(guó)家必定富強(qiáng)。 第十六天：THE NATIONAL FLAG 國(guó)旗

it is the duty of every citizen to honor the national flag. Why? Because the national flag is the symbol of a (the) country. To respect it means to respect the country. In other words, if a man loves his country, he must love the national flag.

In school, the national flag is usually raised at a certain time every day. Then the principal, teachers, staff and students are to (must) stand before it and sing the national anthem. It is indeed extremely meaningful to attend such a ceremony.

尊敬國(guó)旗是每個(gè)公民的責(zé)任（義務(wù)）。為什么？因?yàn)閲?guó)旗是國(guó)家的象征。尊敬它意思就是尊敬國(guó)家。換句話說(shuō)，如果一個(gè)人愛(ài)國(guó)，他必須愛(ài)國(guó)旗。

在學(xué)校里，通常每天定時(shí)要升旗。那時(shí)，校長(zhǎng)，老師，教職員學(xué)生教師將恭敬地站在它前面并且唱國(guó)歌。參加此項(xiàng)儀式確實(shí)非常有意義。

第十七天：THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION

教育的重要性

It is impossible for us to make our country rich and strong without developing education. Why? Because education gives people knowledge and teaches them how to become good citizens so as to be able to serve their country. No wonder they say that education decides the progress, prosperity and civilization of a country.

At present (Nowadays) most countries in (of) the world are enforcing compulsory education. It is necessary for all kinds of people, both rich and poor, to receive education. Taiwan is an exception as well not.

我們不可能使我們的國(guó)家富強(qiáng)而不發(fā)展教育。為什么？因?yàn)榻逃�給予人民知識(shí)并教他們?nèi)绾纬蔀楹霉�民以便能為�?guó)家效力。難怪，有人說(shuō)教育決定一個(gè)國(guó)家的進(jìn)步，繁榮與文化。 現(xiàn)在世界大多數(shù)的國(guó)家都在實(shí)施強(qiáng)迫教育。所有各類人民不論貧富都必須接受教育。臺(tái)灣也不例外。

第十八天：INDUSTRY (DILIGENCE) 勤勉

It is a matter of course that industry will bring us success, wealth and good luck. I am sure that a hard-working person can always succeed in the work which he wants to do. This is unchangeable truth.

Idleness is the opposite of industry. It is the source of all evil. An idle man only enjoys playing and making pleasures. That he is doomed to failure is of no doubt. We should not follow his example. 勤勉會(huì)帶給我們成功，財(cái)富和好運(yùn)乃是當(dāng)然之事。我確信一個(gè)苦干的人終是能夠做成功他所要做的工作。這是不易之定理。

懶惰是勤勉的反面。它是萬(wàn)惡之源泉。一個(gè)懶惰的人只享受玩耍和尋樂(lè)。他命運(yùn)注定失敗是毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)的。我們不應(yīng)學(xué)他的榜樣。

第十九天：MY NATIVE TOWN 我的故鄉(xiāng)

My native town is X. We have settled down here since my grandfather was a child. In other words, my family has lived here for more than one hundred years.

It is a small village. There are about one thousand inhabitants. Most of them are farmers. The mode of their living is very simple. However, they have already possessed television sets and refrigerators. They made up their minds to live a modern life.

我的故鄉(xiāng)是X。我們自從祖父是小孩時(shí)，就定居在此地。換句話說(shuō)，我們家人在此地已經(jīng)住了一百余年了。

這個(gè)小村莊。居民大約有一千人。他們大部分是農(nóng)夫。他們的生活方式很簡(jiǎn)單。然而，他們已擁有電視和冰箱。他們下定決心要過(guò)一個(gè)現(xiàn)代的生活。

第二十天：MY SCHOOL LIFE 我的學(xué)校生活

When I was six years old, I began to go to school. The first school (which) I attended was a primary school. There were many subjects (which were taught in the school, such as Chinese, arithmetic, history, geography, drawing and so forth. Since I was (became) a student, I studied very hard. My parents were quite proud of me.

After I had studied there for three years, I entered a junior high school. When I was twelve years old, I became a student of a senior high school. I still studied very hard. Except on sick leave I was never absent from class. Everybody looked upon me as a model student.
