第一篇：Mutton and steak or cabbages and potatoes全國英語演講大賽演講稿之第八名

Mutton and steak or cabbages and potatoes Good morning: Ladies and gentlemen, my title of the speech is mutton and steak or cabbage and potatoes.Today, I'd like to start my speech with my college life.My parents give me 600 Yuan for accommodation monthly, and every time when I check my account at the beginning of a month I feel like a millionaire.Therefore, I always impulsively spend a large amount of money during the first half of month enjoying mutton, bacon, and steak for meals, but inevitably end up eating onions, cabbages and potatoes at the end of each month.Well, indeed, I should know how to plan my money.But, in a broader sense, one should plan the present to create a bright future instead of exploring the future for the guarantee of a temporarily satisfying present.And that little theory also applies well when it comes to our human beings’ future.Nowadays, we are dreaming of a bright future where energy is now not exhausted, water is clean and abundant, species no longer extinct and people live in peace and harmony on earth.Whether that dream will come true depends largely on whether we decide to exploit the future for the present or plan the present for the future-which may in turn lead to completely different futures of mankind.Well, if human beings all follow my example, I believe we may all end up eating cabbages and potatoes.But, what I mean by this is that, if we keep on exploiting the future by overusing the energy, over pumping underground water, or massively slaughtering wild animals, we may be facing a future where energy is exhausted, water is dried and species are dying out.And of course in order to obtain those indispensable resources, conflicts, competitions and even wars may start again;filing the world with bullets, bombs, and bloods.Well, that is the first possible future we human beings may be faced with: dark, gloomy, and violent—quite the contrary to our dream.However, if we human beings adopt a sense of sustainable development, we could realize how important it is to plan the present for the future.And in that way, our destiny might change.By planning the future, I mean to use whatever we can use presently at hand to change the bad situation.For example, facing energy crisis, we can try from now on to develop a certain kind of technology that can turn the unlimited solar energy into all kinds of energy we need.And in the same way, water crisis may not be a problem if we try to find ways to turn natural rain into drinking water;and species will be well preserved if we effectively enforce relevant laws and make people realize how important it is to maintain species diversity.And then people, nature and society are harmonized and we certainly use in our second possible future-bright, promising, harmonious and peaceful-exactly the same as in our dream.So ladies and gentlemen, now let's get back to the matter of my food.Of course, stand in front of all of you here today.I'd like to promise that I would plan my money for food right now.And I'd like to invite all of you here to plan with me together.From now on, let's enjoy two dishes of vegetables and one for each meat;and, if need be, let's only eat cabbages and potatoes for a few days, because we all know that in that way, mutton and steak will be somewhere in the future, blinking at us.Thank you.這是來自解放軍外國語學(xué)院的鐘文天同學(xué)的演講稿，全文圍繞蔬菜與肉食這件日常小事情來說明人類需要節(jié)制，來使得人類社會，動(dòng)物和諧共處。Mutton mutton

第二篇：全國英語演講大賽演講稿之第二名

Good afternoon,Ladies and gentlemen, I have a friend who just started his career as a teacher in a primary school.Weeks age he came and ask me to raise a topic for his mid-term composition test.I was curious why he chose me, because he is a teacher himself.My friend said that he wanted something that the students can really show their different ideas.Without thinking, I asked him to let his students to write about what they would do if they were given one million U.S.dollars, my friend left with satisfaction and I fell into my old memories.(tell a story related to his core problem of speech that he will discussed next)

It reminded me of my time in primary school.(the transfer from the story above to personal experience)In our Chinese class, our teacher required us to write a composition with the topic “my most unforgettable day” with our real experience.When papers came back, half of the students wrote about the first day they came to school.The rest were all about picking up money on the streets and giving it to policemen or helping a blind man cross the street.Of course;I was among them.(a sense of humor)But I remember every clearly that one student, only one student gave something different.He wrote about the day that he first kiss a girl.I read his composition.After all these years, I can’t remember every word, but I dare to say that Shakespeare may not be able to write equally well when he was 11 years old.(adapt hyperbole here, compare the child with Shakespeare，interesting and inspire audience’s mood)But the kid was scored zero.The composition was written out of real experience and genuine emotion.But our teacher thought the content was “unhealthy”.I am sure you know the Chinglish meaning of this word “unhealthy”.That was 15 years ago.You read about this composition and you feel that half of our population are blind, so all these kids can have a chance to help a blind man cross the street and everyone of us has a hole in our pocket, so all these kids have a chance to pick up lost money and give it the policemen.(Filled with humor as well as worries)

A few days ago, my friend sent me an e-mail of all the copies of his students’ compositions.I have to say, I was sadly disillusioned.Among these papers, 40% students said that they would donate their money to people in poverty, so their children can have a chance to go to school.The rest were much more like.Some wanted to support Panda Protection Project and some wanted to read books to enlarge their knowledge.One student even said that he would like to spend his one million U.S.dollars on the effort to cure AIDS.I was more than astonished to know that a ten-year-old child knew what AIDS really is.Of course, that was a long time ago.(Funny but arise people’s worries about Chinese education and children’s future)

It has always been our dream to open the hearts of our children.I encourage them to describe their dream and we act in the way as if we are always ready to accept their thoughts.However, children are scared by the zero marked on their papers.They are trained to say what we want to hear.(show personal worries and care about next generation-our nation’s future)People compare children to flowers of tomorrow.And parents do dream about the scenery that roses, tulips, daffodils flourish in the future.But down the road we are going on in the future, or the future of future, only one kind of flower can be found.And that is the flower we like most.(show an imagine of future’s bad situation to raise people’s attention and emphasize on education problem again)Thank you!

Summery

這是此次大賽的亞軍，來自天津師范的英語專業(yè)的吳相臣的演講，獲得的是最佳幽默獎(jiǎng)，無可非議的是他顯然是這前十名中最有幽默感的演講者，而且他的演講在演講時(shí)極具感染力，在演講過程中多次贏得臺下的評委和同學(xué)的笑聲和掌聲，而且在問答環(huán)節(jié)中，仍然保持著這種幽默，搞怪的氣氛，整個(gè)演講場地由他一下子暖起來了。他在演講環(huán)節(jié)引起評委的注

意，而且中央電視臺著名英語主持人-劉欣，也別他的幽默感所感染。他無疑是此次大賽中在演講的個(gè)人風(fēng)采展示中最杰出的一個(gè)。最能感染聽眾。

這篇演講稿中有以下幾個(gè)亮點(diǎn)：

1．整篇演講由幾個(gè)事件組成，而演講者選舉的這幾個(gè)事件，是以一個(gè)過來人在回憶自己在孩子時(shí)代寫作文和現(xiàn)在孩子寫作文中表現(xiàn)的思維局限，來反映中國教育約束孩子的想象力和思維，他以先一個(gè)同齡孩子的眼光，后以一個(gè)教育從事者的眼光的來看待這個(gè)問題，不僅有時(shí)空的跨越，而且還有一種強(qiáng)烈的對比，更加突出問題嚴(yán)重性。

2．個(gè)人的情感和觀點(diǎn)融入所舉出的事件中.，直白的觀點(diǎn)陳述很少，這樣結(jié)構(gòu)不會顯得很突兀，極具親和力。

3．語言樸實(shí)，真摯，幽默詼諧的同時(shí)又不失思考。從笑聲中看到問題，從簡單中看到不簡單。

4．論述有點(diǎn)到面，從一個(gè)細(xì)小的點(diǎn)中，洞悉整個(gè)存在的問題。能從孩子在寫作文來反映問題，而且加上個(gè)人的思考的角度的轉(zhuǎn)換，不僅反映真實(shí)，而且具有深入思考的價(jià)值。

Never lose the vision of reality

Good afternoon

Ladies and gentlemen, today my topic is never losing the vision of reality.Talking about dreams and future, I would say, dreams should not be too far away from reality.Detaching from reality, looking solid or practical actions, any dream plan or dream project will be nothing short of daydreaming, or, at most well-intentioned thinking.Here I am remained the year of 2000, when 191 member states of the United Nations held a world summit conference, which made a declaration known as the millennium development goals.The goals of 2015, which every member state pledged to meet, were such as, elimination of hunger and poverty, drastic reduction in child mortality rates, reversing a spread of AIDS and other deadly disease, ect.Now, six years later, almost half way to the final year of 2015, do we see any signs of realizing these goals? Today, half the world-about three billion people, still live under two U.S dollars a day;and about 279 million children have no access to safe water, 11 million children die before they reach the year of five each year.Do we come to harness the spread of the AIDS? The answer is also “no” and indeed AIDS is spreading faster and wider than ever before.What is even worse, with the weak of the Iraqi War, the nuclear crisis in Iran and unsettled situations

in many places, the vision of us young people today are often limited but the limited vision that we do have and care about every day cannot change the conviction that this world does not seem to promise a vary bright future before us.Who is blame for this? Of course, we can blame the government: how they disappoint all seem to be: in the moment they are pledging to build a better future for us, and the other moment they are igniting wars killing more innocent people.But don’t you think we ordinary folks should also take some responsibility for, say elimination of hunger and poverty? When we are quickly rushing to schools, works, or place of entertainment, how many times do we stop just to hand over some food to the deprived on the streets? When we are reading newspapers browsing for news about what is going on in this world, how often do we stop to think about actual ways that we can do to help the people who are suffering from various disastrous situations? In fact, how much have we done to help the people who are in need just around us.Dreams are certainly beautiful and indispensable in our life, for they give us inspiration and motivation.Future plans are certainly necessary, for they provide us with goals and guides.But what is most beautiful and important is an action on a day-to-day base in order to realize our dreams or make our future goals realized, we need to put our worlds into deeds and

base our vision on reality.In other words, while human beings should be, first and foremost, idealists and thinkers, we should also be, and all the more, realists and practical doers.Thank you.這是來自第六名北京語言大學(xué)的英語專業(yè)的崔笑笑的演講稿，這篇演講稿被她演繹的淋漓精致，極為流暢自然，所以她獲得了此次大賽的最佳風(fēng)度獎(jiǎng)。她以millennium development goals的簽署之后，在這幾年里世界發(fā)生的細(xì)微變化和與當(dāng)初所制定的目標(biāo)作比較，發(fā)現(xiàn)相差甚遠(yuǎn)，由此展開觀點(diǎn)論述：Never lose the vision of reality.語言犀利，準(zhǔn)確，觀點(diǎn)獨(dú)到，是一篇議論性演講稿的佳作。

Dream for ourselves

Good afternoon: Ladies and gentlemen, the topic of my speech today is Dreams of Ourselves.In the first day of my English oral course, our teacher asked us to think about what we would be doing ten years from now, go to America and marry an American girl, a guy student said.He thought it might one of the best ways to learn English well.I may be raising my children with some freelance work to boot, uttered one of my roommates, who was unanimously voted by us to be our “ miss angel in the house”.What about you, Richard, our teacher turned to the walking dictionary of our class.I may be taking up your position and busy being a respected professor.The whole class roared with laughter, our teacher laughed, too.What beautiful dreams we used to have.But now, everybody is busy doing double major, stuffing their heads with straight As internships, exchange programs.The once vigorous and diversified voices have thinned into one: be the one that suits need of the job market.Ladies and gentlemen, it means the dreams should relevant to reality.But now, aren’t we college students too much bound by this reality? If dreams are simply reality shows, can they still be called dreams? A couple weeks ago, I read the story of Ma Yan, who had to drop out of school because of poverty.She said she wanted to go to school so that her family could live a better life.However, growing up impressed by Martin Luther king’s I have a dream talk and the Chinese proverb that everyone is born to be somebody.My classmates and I may think that we are less driven than this starving little girl.But aren’t we making any difference, if we are not being true to ourselves?

Ladies and gentlemen, Steven jobs, CEO of apple computer, once said, our time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else life.I think it’s especially true with us twenty something, who are sort of feeling disoriented in face of dream and reality.The other night, my roommate complained to me what little memory she would have for her college days.True!The dreams may become tomorrow’s reality and the day after tomorrow’s memory.But if we are not dreaming for ourselves, where can the memory come from? And plus, if we can not even master our own dreams, how can we master the future of our society?

Ladies and gentlemen, with the advance in science and technology, we are faced with dilemma than ever, the controversy over surrogate mothers;the right way to treat animals;the pros and cons of the online pop culture.There might be never definite answers to these questions, but how we judge and envision them to be will decide the future of us all.Luckily, I have found my dream, that is, to be a journalist.To be honest with you, it has something to do with Ma Yan, whose story was reported by a French journalist in the first place.He is the one that bridged Ma Yan’s reality and her dream.I also want to be a bridge of this kind, and this dream in mind, I know I’ll have not only a future ahead, but also a precious memory behind.That’s end of my speech.Thank you very much.這是來自上海復(fù)旦大學(xué)的胡懿選手，第九名。她的演講 結(jié)合個(gè)人的生活，樸實(shí)干凈的語句卻閃爍著她的真摯情感和對生活的思考。是一篇極具感染力的演講稿。

第五篇：全國英語演講大賽演講稿之第十名

Good afternoon

Ladies and gentleman, two thousand years ago, the Chinese philosopher, Confucius, advocated a harmonious society without selflessness and conflicts.Fifteen hundred years later, the English author, Tomas More, wrote about an imaginary place in which everyone enjoys peace equality and common wealth.These and various other ideal worlds have something in common: peace, love and harmony.Such has been a dream of human beings throughout the world.And we have been long working hard toward this goal.History has witnessed numerous wars and even today some parts of the world are still suffering from the threats of conflicts.Such a dream, however, has only been going stronger instead of going awry.When the athletes from North and South Korea walked into the Olympic field hand in hand, handing one flag of Korean peninsula, they together lit the torch to end the half-century’s conflicts.It is true there are still many problems in the world-Problems of too complicated roots to be solved at once.As we all know, some small countries are being bullied by big power now and then;but at the same time we see protests being staged all over the world.The nuclear power has caused unstable equilibrium but the cold war has made us aware that what a desolate future the world would have if nuclear war to break out.Racial discrimination and religious conflicts still prevail, but as far as I know, no religion in the world teaches people to hate or fight, indeed, reality is always far from ideal.But the problems are nor altogether unsolvable.We human beings are blessed with reasonand have the confidence that the light of reason will eventually disperses the dark and shadows with economy is growing at an amazingly fast rate in the last two decades.China is now facing with both tremendous opportunities as well as challenges.An important charge of mindset is that china is learning to be critical of its own problems and more concerned with addressing these problems, public opinion has been so active abs constructive as it is now.Self-criticism and a sense of crisis is a sign of maturity and self-confidence.Chinese visionaries are now advocating green GDP and attaching great importance to social development that emphasizes human beings.So it is not hard to see the direction in which china is moving.Policymaking is getting more down to earth.Corruption is still being fought hard and concepts such as due process and human rights are working their way into public consciousness.So, with all these efforts going on, sure and steady, there is good reason to believe that china’s future will be bright.Last week, a forum was held in Beijing, the theme is Chinese dream and a harmonious world.The message is that all Chinese have a dream and that dream is peace and propensity and the realization of this dream will contribute to the harmony of the whole world.Thank you very much.此篇演講稿選自全國大學(xué)生英語演講比賽第十名——來自北京外國語大學(xué)趙婷的現(xiàn)場演講稿。她演講時(shí)語言組織極為縝密，規(guī)范，表達(dá)流暢，根據(jù)中國實(shí)情，觀點(diǎn)獨(dú)到。是一篇作為演講的佳作。也是用來學(xué)習(xí)英語的好材料。
