第一篇：關存豐演講稿

尊敬的領導、老師、親愛的同學們：

大家上午好！我是來自水運工程系10輪機2班的關存豐，現任院學生會學習部部長助理，今天我競聘的是院學習部部長一職。在這里我要感謝學院為我提供這次機會讓我有幸參與競選。同時也要感謝在座的各位領導老師以及同學們對我的支持和信任。

昨日已成過去，明天才是我的追求，09年秋季我有幸成為院學生會的一員，我沒有什么特殊非凡的閱歷和令人炫目的資本，但是從基層工作的實踐中鍛煉了自己，從第一次的值班、考勤，第一次的例會，第一次表格的制作，第一次活動的開展，這一路走來我懂得了“細節決定成敗、權力就是責任”。

既然是鮮花就要綻放，既然是樹木就要長成棟梁，既然是石頭我就要鋪出大道，既然是學習部部長我就要做好領航員，在我擔任學習部干事以來，在家積極配合院學生會工作的同時也參加了人文論壇、大專辯論賽的籌劃和籌備，交流晚會、元旦晚會的會場布置，迎新接待、招新宣傳等一系列活動。這一系列的活動培養了我較強的辦事能力和組織協調能力，以及駕馭復雜局面和把握大局的應變能力同時勤學苦干，適應性強的個性與廣大同學間的友好關系也正是我的優勢所在。而這所有的一切正是造就一名出色的學生會干部所需要的。

另外，在我對這次競選懷有熱情、自信和希望的同時，我想最現實、最實際的還是我個人對未來工作的幾點想法：

? 一切真知的產生都是來源于實踐，如果今天我有幸競聘成功，身上的責任會更重，我會盡己所能高質高效地做好本部門的各項工作。

? 加強各部門之間的溝通、協作，同時加強與各系學習部之間的溝通，全心全意地位

同學服務，堅持做到工作從同學中來到同學中去。

? 組織制度建設，一個強大的組織，必須有一套行之有效的規章制度保障起有效運轉。

在現行制度的基礎上我將進一步完善部門的規章制度。

? 活動方面，積極進取、銳意創新，積極打造交院品牌活動。

最后，我認為時代以奉獻為榮，進步以參與為時尚，生活在于主動、生活在于投入，相信只要給我一個驗證的機會，我將一定做到：“人盡其才、才盡其用”請大家相信我關存豐，這名字代表著我的志向、我的作風、我的追求，我相信我會“出平凡與不平凡”之中還大家一個優異的學習部！我的演講完畢謝謝大家！！

第二篇：演講稿關存豐2

尊敬的各位領導老師、親愛的同學們大家好！

寧愿做錯了后悔，也不要錯過了后悔!我是水運工程系10輪機2班的關存豐，現在在學習部擔任部長助理。我競選的職務是院學生會學習部部長一職。

山重水復疑無路，柳暗花明又一村。這是我進學生會最想說的一句話，10年秋季，我有幸成為院學生會的一員。我沒有什么特殊非凡的閱歷與令人眩目的資本，但我從基層工作的實踐中得到了充足的鍛煉。從第一次例會，第一次考勤，第一次值班開始，一路走來，我明白：責任永遠是榮譽的二倍。進入學生會是一種榮譽更是一種責任。天下興亡，匹夫有責。但我想說：天下興亡，我有責。帶著責任上路，我成功參與組織了“人文論壇”的口號、標志的征集以及影視播放；第三屆“通達杯”大專辯論賽；“自立自強，立志成才，報效祖國”演講比賽；同時，一年多的學生會生活造就了我堅強的性格,自信的人生態度。我的學習和工作也得到老師同學的肯定。

學習部作為學生會的重要組成部分，負責考核評比全院晚自習，構建良好學風，是教與學之間的溝通橋梁，也是實現提升學習能力與鍛煉自我的有效平臺。如果我當選，我將從以下4個方面做好工作：

1、加強協作，做好聯系學校和學生之間的紐帶

學生會是一個整體，部門與部門之間就是兄弟姐妹，加強協作，步伐一致。同時要加強與各系學習部的溝通。全心全意的為同學們服務。真正做到工作從同學中來，到同學們中去

2、提高團隊的整體素質與綜合能力 嚴格地要求自己，提高學生會內部成員的素質，增加團體的凝聚力，使內部達到真正的團結統一，使學生的職能得到充分的發揮。

3、組織制度建設

一個強大的組織，必須有一套行之有效的制度保障其運轉。在現行制度的基礎上，將進一步制定出行之有效的部門制度。如：值班、考勤、例會制度。真正確保學習部的工作透明化。使各項工作行之有效的運行。

4、活動方面，積極進取，銳意創新

做好原有工作的基礎上，適時、適量的改進工作。打造交院品牌活動。

雄鷹展翅急需一方天空，我真心的渴望領導老師能夠給我這個展現自我的舞臺。我會向你們遞交滿意答卷。“語言上的巨人，行動上的矮子”永遠是不可取的。機遇與挑戰同在，但我相信，機遇永遠垂青于勤勉、努力的執著者。

最后我想用一句古諺來結束我的演講：“不可以一時之得意而自夸其能，亦不可以一時之失意而自墜其志”。

最后的最后，請大家記住我來自10輪機2班的關存豐，也請大家記住這個特殊的時刻。十年前的今天，澳門回歸祖國，祖國同慶。十年后的今天，交院學生會依舊輝煌。

謝謝大家，我的演講畢!

直前，用辛勤和汗水澆開了儲蓄之花。到2004年底，均州分社各項存款余額達4667萬元，較年初凈增1764萬元，其凈增額在全市各營業網點獨樹一幟。一份耕耘，就有一份收獲。在存款大幅攀升的同時，我們均州分社職工的收入均超過了2萬元，其中我個人的年收入達到了萬元，是我參加工作以來收入最高的一年，與大多數職工相比，可以說是夠豐厚的。我想，如果沒有上級領導對我的關心、支持，如果沒有招標上崗、優化組合的殘酷競爭，如果沒有能者多勞、多勞多得的按勞分配制度，我就無法象今天這樣揚眉吐氣。下面，我向在座的各位領導和同事介紹一年來我是怎樣以辛勤和汗水換來豐厚回報的。大家知道，我所在的均州分社地處丹江金融一條街。在方圓不到1公里的范圍內農行、工行、建行三足鼎力，市場競爭已達到了白熱化程度。我們均州分社牌子不如別人硬、結算渠道不如別人暢、服務產品不如別人多、服務質量不如別人高，致使我們在競爭中只有招架之功，沒有還手之力，如果不盡快實施先人一步、快人一招的超常規舉措，就難以扼制存款下滑的局面。

面對種種不利因素，作為均州分社負責人，我義無反顧，沒有退縮。為了在激烈的競爭中不斷發展壯大，使分社每一個職工能夠拿到較高的工資，我在攬存工作中充分發揚“拼命三郎”的精神，只要有百分之一的希望，就用百分之百的努力去爭取。為了盡快進入角色，我對轄內的客戶分布情況進行了全面摸底梳理歸類，發現我社附近不僅有市人民醫院、丹二巷菜市場，而且還遍布餐飲、娛樂、超市，可以說組織資金的條件得天獨厚。摸清市場后，我將不利因素轉化成有利條件。通過上門公關、建立客戶信息卡、定期訪問等手段，激活了一批“沉睡”客戶，發展了一批黃金客戶。小梅超市與我社僅一墻之隔，但從未與信用社發生業務往來。為了爭取到小梅超市這個客戶，我多次上門做工作，而

小梅超市的老板似乎不太領情，總是若即若離，始終沒有在我社開立帳戶，我沒有因此而放棄，而是一如既往的為其主動兌換零幣，幫助鑒定其人民幣真偽，有意為其推銷商品，點點滴滴的真情注入終于打動了老板的心，如今小梅超市已在我社開立了帳戶，月均存款余額保持在30萬元左右。

為了在激烈的儲蓄競爭中站穩腳跟，我們一個回合不行，十個回合的毅力拼搏，只要是自己選準的目標，我將義無反顧，勇往直前，不達目的誓不罷休。劉女士是金融一條街上有錢大戶，但多年來一直未與我社往來，眼睜睜地看著一池肥水總是流入外人田，我心里真不是滋味，于是攻關劉女士便成了我的一大目標。去年9月我找到了她家，劉女士見了我，開口就說：“今天怎么又來了，我的錢存在工行，你別費心機了。”不善于吃閉門羹的我有意避開了存款話題，與之談論起日常生活中的雜事。一向細心的我發現沙發上放著準備織毛衣的毛線，我眼

睛一轉，有辦法了。我指著沙發上的毛線笑著說：“我織毛衣可在行了，你生意忙，我幫你織兩件，怎么樣？”劉女士滿口答應了。“項莊舞劍，意在沛公”。10多天后，劉女士第一筆13萬元的資金在我社落了戶。

爭存要有路，攬儲要有方，拉關系，搭橋，然后攻關是我爭存攬儲工作中的又一決竅。一天，我在一個朋友家玩，朋友告訴我：“市中心有一個體老板家中有一筆錢，就看你有沒有能耐把它弄到手。”聽到這一信息后，我并沒有盲目地上門找這位老板，而是先打聽老板周圍的熟人，通過“人托人，寶找寶”的方式終于和這位個體老板搭上了，但老板否認有錢，生硬地向我潑了一盆涼水，但我并沒有因此算罷干休，我又找到了剛認識的這位老板的朋友，一起又來到了這位老板的家，老板依然是老板，并不那么爽快，然而看在朋友的份上，還是存了1萬元。誰知這1萬元剛存1個星期，這位老板又打電話，說有急用，我

趕緊把錢送到了這位老板的手中，老板見到風塵仆仆的我，不僅未接我送來的錢，反而又從家里拿出3萬元交給我，笑著說：“你們的服務還算不錯。”從此這位老板不僅成了我們的常客，而且每月存款余額都保留在5萬元以上。

談起儲蓄我有使不完的勁、剪不斷的情，幾乎達到了癡迷程度。成天腦子想的是儲源、本上記的是儲戶、往返跑的是儲蓄，存款已成為我的第二生命。一年來，我把所有精力和心血都放在攬存事業上。在實際工作中，我對待客戶象對待自己的親人一樣，真正以真心換真情。在一次傍晚下班回家途中，偶然遇到了一位老鄉楊某，與其交談過程中，無意間得知她的母親過七十大壽，于是晚上我送上了自己真誠的祝福。輕輕的一份溫情，深深打動了老鄉的心。通過這種人情往來，加深了相互之間的農村信用社演講稿:汗水拓寬攬存路辛勤耕耘收入豐

Our Future: A Battle between Dreams and Reality Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

When I was in the primary school, 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 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 countries 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 your 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

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, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be eliminated.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 defeat the reality!Thank you very much.主持人：Thank you.曹豐：Thand you.ASK：Now in the age of the Internet, reading books does not seem as important as it once was.Do you think people can learn as much on the Internet as they can by reading books? Which method do you prefer? ANSWER：Thank you very much.And hello again ladies and gentlemen.Actually, I don't really agree with the first sentence of this topic:“ In the age of the Internet, reading books does not seem as important as it was once.”Why? Why is it the case? Why is it the situation, ladies and gentlemen? Actually, Internet or books are just like tea or coffee.They are similar, but they are different.University students nowadays love to use the Internet to search for information when they are working with their essays.Like, last semester, when I was working with my physics essay, I logged into Google and I searched for “NEWTON” and all the laws and theories of Newton just popped out and I can choose whichever one I like to use.But when I walked into the library, all the books came out and I have to choose which one to read.How inconvenient!Maybe you can say at this moment,“Oh,Internet is better, books no use.” So I have to use the Internet,right?But let's see the things in another way.I love traveling a lot and I love to bring a book with me.And I love to read my Da Vinci Code when I was having my trip on a bus or on a ship.Actually,whenever it is, wherever you go, whatever you are doing, you can take out a book and read if you feel like doing so.Now who will bother to take a laptop and switch it on, and search for the Internet connection, and look for stories to read.How inconvenient!So at this very moment I think it's quite dangerous for me, because I think I'm unable to answer the question in the topic ”Which method do you prefer, Internet or books?" because I love the feeling of conjuring a hundred pages of Harry Potter, more than scrolling down the screen;but at the same time I love the feeling of searching the things, the speed of my searching for things on the Internet，my time in the library.So in this age of Internet, in this age of modernization, in this age of civilization, why do you have to force someone to choose between the Internet and books? I prefer using both of them.Thank you very much.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for encouraging us to be unrealistic dreamers(Thank you)and not surrender to Mr.Reality.(hehe..)With the traffic jam getting worse--especially in big cities--I'm actually very interested in your childhood dream:T o invent a device that can move people around easily.Is this still your dream? If not,why do you give it up? Is it because it is considered unrealistic? Thank you.ANSWER：Thank you very much.This is not my dream now.Not because it is(not), unrealistic.Maybe you can say it's unrealistic.But if I,my interest is still inventing this device, I will keep on trying my best to invent this decive.My changing of my dreams is because of the fact that I realized my interest does not lie in science.Now I am a law school student.But last semester, as I've just mentioned, I was working on my physics essay paper and actually last semester I was a student in the school of aerospace.Oh my god, aerospace!And I've changed my major to law school.And so the changing of my dream is actually because of the fact that I realize my interest lies in, maybe communicating with others, or having interactions with the others.Science is very fantastic, but it's not my piece of cake.Yes, so that's the reason.Thank you very much.ASK：Thank you very much for your speeches.Talding about Internet,I just want to know your view.Do you believe everything is ture on the Internet?If not,why not?

ANSWER：.Thank you very much.I don't believe everything is true in the Internet.This is a straight forward answer.And if not,why not?Because I don't believe them.And I have an experience of meeting someone on the Internet who claims to be a girl.Yes and,a very sad,sorry story for me.But yes,for this reason,I think I don't believe that everything on the Internet is true.But I will try my best to discover if that was true or not,or that was falsified or not.Thank you very much.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for your speeches.You were talking about dreams being realistic or unrealistic and your current dream is to graduate from law school.But what is your realistic or unrealistic dream after that?What do you want to use your graduation in law for? ANSWER：Thank you very much.Actually,my dream,as mentioned in the last part of my speech,is to share my feelings,share my dreams with the globe.And when all the people in this Earth have my dream,they will work

hard for the social betterment,I believe in that.So after I've graduated from law school,I think I will try my best to persuade the others to,to accept my dream,and that is exactly why I am here.I am here trying to persuade you all,I think you all,after listening to my speech,hopefully,you can try to understand my dream and that we are all a member of the global village,and we have to try our best to work hard for the social betterment of all.This is why I want to be,saying,speaking something here,and that is my goal--or realistic or unrealistic dream after I've graduated.I think I will try my best to du what I've said before.Thank you very much.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

When I was in the primary school, 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 school, my dream was to study in my ideal university.And when eventually I got into the university, my dream was to graduate.（personal anecdote）

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?

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

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 6)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, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be 7)eliminated.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 defeat the reality!（Conclusion）Thank you very much.My Tour Agency

This morning, I would like to argue for true ecological tourism, or, ecotourism.To me, a true ecotour is a tour that allows us to express our passion for nature and for our cultural heritage.（No introduction）

I love traveling.One of my most memorable trips was climbing the Great Wall.There, I cherished seeing people of all races and ages gathered on this ancient edifice.I cherished

seeing these people smiling at each other, making way for each other, and reminding each other to watch their steps.While I love traveling, I'm also sad to see the damage tourism has done to nature and to our historical relics.Many tour agencies like to label their business “ecotours”.But they have cut down trees and filled up rivers in order to build roads, hotels and cable cars so as to attract tourists.And on their tours, some people pick flowers, catch birds and throw away food that might poison animals.This is not ecotourism at all.True ecotourism involves responsibility.While we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should also help protect it.Here let me share an experience.Once, I joined others as young volunteers in an outing.The excursion took us to the peak of a mountain where we got a beautiful view of the city.We were, however, not ordinary tourists.As we were climbing, we were also picking up the trash left on the ground by other climbers.Finally, we carried, in large bags, all the trash down the mountain.The excursion was exhausting, but I believe, after this experience, not a single one of us will ever litter any tourist spot.Moreover, when we were cleaning up the mountain slope, we caught eyes of many others.Some of them might see us as foolish, but more of them, I believe, will take note of the need to protect the environment.My experience was one of an ecotourist.We took, but we also gave.However, on the idea of ecotourism, there are many misunderstandings.I once

telephoned several travel agencies to inquire about ecotours.And here is how it went:“Hello!”

“Hi, I'm interested in the ecotour you've advertised.”

“Oh, yeah, ecotour.”

“I'm wondering if we should do anything special as ecotourists.”

“I'm sorry? Oh, nothing… Just enjoy the scenery.”

Every conversation ended up with “enjoying the scenery.” No one mentioned “protecting the wildlife,” “respecting local customs,” or “preparing a bag for garbage.” None of them made any mention of the obligation and responsibility on the part of tourists.Like other students, I have had many dreams of what I would like to do after graduation.One of these dreams is to run a travel agency.In this travel agency, I would do three things: call to action

First, I would like to have a staff of people who love nature as they love their mothers and can pass on to the customers the same kind of love.Second, I would like to let the customers appreciate the beauty of nature in those natural reservations, safari parks and wild forests, and show them how they can contribute in return for the air, water and nourishment that nature provides.Last but not least, I'd encourage the customers to work as volunteers as I once did.They would live close to nature by cleaning up the natural resorts and planting trees as mementos of their visit.I still remember when I was standing on the top of the Great Wall, I could see in some distance many bare mountains with no trees, nothing green.It is my dream that one day I would organize tours for areas that are suffering from erosion and deforestation, and we would plant trees there.Ecotourism should be an experience of learning and offering-it

should not be just seeing the famous sites and posing for photos.On the flag of my agency, I would like to print this motto:!

Take nothing away except memory;leave nothing behind except your trees.Join my tour, my dear friends!It will make China green-and make this world a better place to live.Thank you very much.What was the Topic of the speech?What was the style of Intro?Style of Body?

A student asked me a couple of questions which I answered hurriedly as I was going to another class.They were good questions, so I thought I'd restate my answers for the class.Student Question:Do we have to come up with a new argument for Body III, counter-argument?

Teacher Response:No.Remember that your counter argument in Body III is about giving a retort to a counter-argument to your topic.So, in Body I and II you have 2 arguments and supporting statements regarding your topic.This is different than Body III.In Body III you don't have to give a new argument to support your topic.In Body III,you do have to explain why the counter-argument is wrong.You can do this by using a narrative figure(ex.historical or famous person narrative)or statistics or other facts.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.Counter Argument: Some studies say, doing homework is a waste of time.A Harvard study claims that doing homework is a waste of time and you can't learn from doing homework.Retort to Counter Argument: 1)This study is wrong.Have you heard of Albert Einstein?Einstein read books and research papers and calculated formulas everynight.He called it his homework.That's how Einstein discovered the theory of relativity.OR2)Yale and Princeton studies show that doing homework for 3 hrs every night is the best way to learn.Student Question:What is the difference between my arguments(Body I&II)and my practical steps(Body IV)?

Teacher Response:topic.Your practical steps are different and they are not arguments.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.(General Statement)Support to Argument I:

Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.(General Statement)Support to Argument II:

Counter Argument:(see above)

Practical Steps: Now that you know how doing homework will help you in life, you may ask yourself how do I do it?1)Set a daily schedule.Make a set time everynight for at least 3 hrs for study.2)Get a course curriculum from a teacher at the beginning of classes.For each chapter, Preview.Study.Review.------------------

Of course.My examples are short.In your actual speech you will have to be more detailed.Hope this helps.Cheers,Arthur
