Building Bridges for the Future
I’m studying in a city that’s famous for its city walls.All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing[im'p?uzi?]sight of the city walls, especially when silhouetted [,silu:'et] by the setting sun with gold, shining lines.With old, cracked [kr?k] bricks are patched with lichen['laik?n]青苔 and the walls are weather-beaten飽經(jīng)風霜的 guards standing still for centuries in protecting the city.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[sneik]蜿蜒 through half our country.They built walls to ward off the enemies['enimi]and evil spirits惡魔.This tradition has been maintained to this day as 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 perceptionsp?'sep??n] , however, changed after I made a hiking trip to the eastern suburbs ['s?b?:b] of my city.My classmates and I were walking with some international students.As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked[fl??k] by tall trees, which formed a huge canopy['k?n?pi] 遮篷above our heads.Suddenly an international 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['laik?n]比擬 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['?ksf?d] and Cambridge ['keimbrid?]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
[in't?nd??bl]無形的.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[si'mest?] , 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 借出system would give us access to books from any library.With globalization and China integrated['intigreitid] into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.I know that globalization is a controversial[,k?ntr?'v?:??lissue, 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[iɡ'z?min] 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 [pri'z?:v]the walls.These walls attract historians[his't?:ri?n] , archaeologists [,ɑ:ki?'l?d?ist], and many schoolchildren who are trying to study our history and cultural heritage['heritid?].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.

第四篇:”夏青杯“演講稿2
各位評委老師:
大家好!我是東莊學校閆麗霞,今天我朗誦的題目是《教師的愛與責任》。
教師的愛與責任
時間過得真快,轉(zhuǎn)眼之間,參加工作已經(jīng)有10幾個年頭了,站在講臺上,剛畢業(yè)時那種難以掩飾的青澀和靦腆仿佛就在昨日。10幾年的時間里,足以改變許多事情,但對教師這一工作的責任感,卻由年輕時的火熱衍變成了今日的綿長不息,俞久彌新。
常有人說:“你是老師啊!不錯呀!一天就那么幾節(jié)課,動動嘴就行了,風吹不著,雨淋不到的,一年還有寒暑假……”。每次聽到這些,我只是微微一笑。我明白,只有從事了教師工作的人才能真正體會到這份工作的辛苦。記得剛參加工作時,一位老教師對我說:“老師吃得是良心飯!”這句樸實的話道出了教師精神的實質(zhì)。是啊!在這個平凡的世界里,我們需要英雄,但我們更需要千千萬萬,實實在在,腳踏實地,在平凡的崗位上有責任心的人。
泰戈爾說:“花的事業(yè)是甜蜜的,果的事業(yè)是珍貴的,讓我干葉的事業(yè)吧,因為葉總是謙虛地垂著她的綠蔭。”是啊,選擇了教師,就是選擇了葉的事業(yè),就是選擇了奉獻。每天面對著一群鮮活的生命,叫我們又怎敢懈怠呢? 教師,固然有著別人無法理解的艱辛,但她也同樣有著別人無法體會的幸福!世上有很多東西,給予他人時,往往是越分越少,唯有一樣東西卻是越分越多。那就是愛!教師的愛是春風化雨、潤物無聲的,付出時,我們沒有想到工資,沒有想到回報,這就是一種責任的驅(qū)使。
冰心有一段話曾激勵過無數(shù)的人為這個世界默默無聞、無怨無悔地奉獻著自己: “愛在左,責任在右,走在生命之路的兩旁,隨時播撒,隨時開花,將這一徑長途點綴得花香彌漫,使穿枝拂葉的莘莘學子,踏著荊棘,不覺得痛苦,有淚可流,卻覺得幸福。”也許,我不能成為冰心筆下那個隨時播撒更能開花的人,但我可以做一顆流星,在孩子們孤單寂寞或是躊躇滿志時,偶爾還會想起:在他們的夜空中,曾經(jīng)有這樣一抹光亮陪他們走過一程。
謝謝大家!
