高中英语演讲稿十五篇
Which is more important? Time or money
Good evening everybody! It's my honor to speak here,at first I am going to have a self-introduction. I am an outing girl, from Huang Gang experiment school. and I am very glad to share my topic with you. Then today I'd like to talk something about which is more important. There are many things around our life. Such as time,healthy, money, friends and so on. But which do you think is the most important? time or money. Some people often say:“Money is more important than time.”they think that if people have money. They can buy clothes, foods, drinks, houses, cars, computers and so on. But l don’t think so. Because when time is gone we can't get it back. But we can keep on making more money. We can use time to get money. However we can’t use money to get time. Lost wealth maybe replaced by industry. Lost knowledge by study. Lost healthy by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone for ever. I cannot afford to waste my time making money. So I think time is more important than money. We must make full use of our time to study and work. Each moment in history is a fleeting time, precious and unique.
Do you love life? Now, my dear friends, carry the sun inside you, and cherish the time that guide you what you want to do. You have what it takes to make your path of success .With the time, you have the courage and strength to see things through, you have the smile that will guide you to the beautiful tomorrows.Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is made of. Life is long if you know how to use it. So let's save our time.
good morning,dear teacher and my friends.
Someone said“we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book,whose pages are infinite”.I don’t know who wrote these words,but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to are all in the position of the we plant a good seed,we reap a good we plant nothing at all,we harvest nothing at all.
We are young.“How to spend the youth?”It is a meaningful answer it,first I have to ask“what do you understand by the word youth?”Youth is not a time of life,it’s a state of ’s not a matter of rosy cheeks,red lips or supple ’s the matter of the ’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
A poet said“To see a world in a grain of sand,and a heaven in a wild flower,hold infinity in the palm of your hand,and eternity in an ral days ago,I had a chance to listen to a lecture.I learnt a lot there.I’d like to share it with all of ’s show our right can see three lines that show how our er and life is.I have a short line of about yours?I wondered whether we could see our future in this ,let’s make a e is our future?Where is our love,career,and life?Tell ,it is in our is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the the future can go better ’t cry because it is over,smile because it the past,we’ve learnt that the life is tough,but we are ’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel,but we can choose what about ure doesn’t mean you don’t have it,it does mean you should do it in a different ure doesn’t mean you should give up,it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning,“we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book,whose pages are infinite” past has ing we do will change the future is in front of eve that what we give to the world,the world will give to from today on,let’s be the owners of ourselves,and speak out“We are the world,we are the future.”
Thank you!
1）开始时对听众的称呼语最常用的是Ladies and gentlemen，也可根据不同情况，选用Fellow students，Distinguished guests，Mr Chairman，Honorable Judges（评委）等等。
2）提出论题由于演讲的时间限制，必须开门见山，提出论题。提出论题的方法有各种各样，但最生动，最能引起注意的是用举例法。比如：你要呼吁大家关心贫穷地区的孩子，你可以用亲眼看到的或者收集到的那些贫穷孩子多么需要帮助的实例开始。另外，用具体的统计数据也是一个有效的引出论题的方法，比如：你要谈遵守交通规则的话题，你可以从举一系列有关车辆、车祸等的数据开始。
3）论证对提出的论题，不可主观地妄下结论，而要进行客观的论证。这是演讲中最需要下功夫的部分。关键是要把道理讲清楚。常见的论证方法有举例法、因果法、对比法等等，可参见英语议论文的有关章节。
4）结论结论要简明扼要（以给听众留下深刻印象。
5）结尾结尾要简洁，不要拉拉扯扯，说个没完。特别是不要受汉语影响，说些类似“准备不足，请谅解”，“请批评指正”这样的废话。最普通的结尾就是：Thank you very much for your attention
格式：
1、顶格写称谓语（如：亲爱的老师）
2、下一行空两格写问候（如：大家好）
3、正文
4、结尾（如：谢谢大家）
写法：
1、内容上的现实性
演讲稿是为了说明一定的观点和态度的。这个观点和态度一定要与现实生活紧密相关。它讨论的应该是现实生活中存在的并为人们所关心的问题。它的观点要来自身边的生活或学习，材料也是如此。它得是真实可信，是为了解决身边的问题而提出和讨论的。
2、情感上的说服性
演讲的目的和作用就在于打动听众，使听者对讲话者的观点或态度产生认可或同情。演讲稿作为这种具有特定目的的讲话稿，一定要具有说服力和感染力。很多著名的政治家都是很好的演讲者，他们往往借肋于自己出色的演讲，为自己的政治斗争铺路。
3、特定情景性
演讲稿是为演讲服务的，不同的演讲有不同的目的、情绪，有不同的场合和不同的听众，这些构成演讲的情景，演讲稿的写作要与这些特定情景相适应。
4、口语化
演讲稿的最终目的是用于讲话，所以，它是有声语言，是书面化的口语。因此，演讲稿要“上口”、“入耳”，它一方面是把口头语言变为书面语言，即化声音为文字，起到规范文字、有助演讲的作用；另一方面，演讲稿要把较为正规严肃的书面语言转化为易听易明的口语，以便演讲。同时，演讲稿的语言应适应演讲人的讲话习惯，同演讲者的自然讲话节奏一致。
演讲稿对于演讲都有哪些作用呢？主要体现在以下几方面：（1）整理演讲者的思路、提示演讲的内容、限定演讲的速度；（2）引导听众，使听众能更好地理解演讲的内容；（3）通过对语言的推究提高语言的表现力，增强语言的感染力。
由于演讲稿具有以上的特征和作用，它在写作方法上也有一定方法可循。
Ladies and Gentlemen:

In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one ofthe teeth from the dragon’s mouth.
He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at havingstolen it was there in the background all through his was always on hisconscience, and the feeling intensified as he became lly he decidedto put right his childish 20xx, he visited Qingdao and returned it tothe Aquarium with his sincere received a warm welcome.
When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported onhis visit.I was deeply touched by his has taught me a lot.I thinkto err is important thing is to have the courage to admit and correctone’s error.
Honesty is a vital quality of human we should try to keep anhonest mind in everything we say and do.I would like to say to all of myfriends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.
As everyone knows, English is very important today. It has been used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. If we can speak English well, we will have more chance to succeed. Because more and more people have taken notice of it, the number of the people who go to learn English has increased at a你好gh speed.But for myself, I learn English not only because of its importance and its usefulness, but also because of my love for it. When I learn English, I can feel a different way of t你好nking w你好ch gives me more room to touch the world. When I read English novels, I can feel the pleasure from the book w你好ch is different from reading the translation. When I speak English, I can feel the confident from my words. When I write English, I can see the beauty w你好ch is not the same as our C你好nese...I love English, it gives me a colorful dream. I hope I can travel around the world one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people from different countries. I can see many places of GREat intrests. I dream that I can go to London, because it is the birth place of English.I also want to use my good English to introduce our GREat places to the English spoken people, I hope that they can love our country like us.I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well.If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too.I am sure that I will realize my dream one day!Thank you!英语演讲稿范文Ladies and Gentlemen, Good afternoon!I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. Today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it, and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.First I want to ask you some questions:一、Do you know what is youth?二、How do you master your youth?YouthYouth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. T你好s often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.Whether 60 of 16, there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing c你好ldlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.Thank you!芳华芳华不是指岁月,而是指心态。粉嫩的脸,红而滋润的唇,矫健的膝并不是芳华。芳华表此决意志的坚强与脆弱。想象的富厚与惨白、感情的充足与贫乏等方面。芳华是生命深处清泉的喷涌。芳华是寻求。只有当勇气盖过胆小软弱、进取压倒苟安之时,芳华才存在。果云云,则60见之父老比20岁之少年更具芳华活力。仅仅岁月的流逝并不能使他们衰老。而一朝抛弃抱负和信念,则垂老迈也。岁月只能使肤质起皱。而一朝丧掉生活的'激情,则连魂灵枯老,令人的生活枯如死水,毫无活力。60岁父老也好,16岁少年也罢,每个人的心田深处都巴望奇迹,都如孩子一般眨着期待的双眼,期待着下一次,期待着生活的情趣,你我魂灵深处都有一座无线电中转站------只有你我年轻,则总能听到希望的呼唤,总能拍发欣忭的欢乐的度过,总能传达勇气的讯号,总能表现出芳华的活力………一朝芳华的天线倒下,你的魂灵即为玩世不恭之雪、悲不雅厌弃人生之冰覆盖;即使你年方20.其实你已垂老迈也。而只要你芳华的天线高高耸起,就能够任何时间吸收到乐不雅的电波-----即使你年过八旬,风烛残年,而你却仍然拥有芳华,你仍然年轻。谢谢!I have a dreamEvery one has你好s own dream. When I was a little kid ,my dream was even to have a candy shop of my own .But now ,when I am 16 years old ,standing here ,my dreams have already changed a lot.I have got quite different experience from other girls. W你好le they were playing toys at home, w你好le they were dreaming to be the princesses in the story .I was running in the hard rain, jumping in the heavy snow, pitc你好ng in the strong wind. Not你好ng could stop me ,because of a wonderful call from my heart -- to be an athlete. Yeah ,of course ,I'm an athlete, I'm so proud of that all the time .When I was 10 years old ,I became a shot-put athlete. The training was really hard ,I couldn't bear the heavy shot in my hands .But I always believe that "god only help those who help themselves". During those hard days, I find I was growing more quickly than others of the same age. To be an athlete is my most correct choice. But, I quit my team after entering你好gh school because of a silly excuse. I really didn't want to stop my sports career anyway.Today I say to you my friends that even though I must face the difficulties of yesterday ,today and tomorrow .I still have a dream .It is a dream deeply rooted in my soul.I have a dream that one day ,I can run, jump and pitch just like I used to be.I have a dream that one day , I can go back to my dream sports and join the national team.I have a dream that one day ,I can stand on the你好ghest place at the Olympicgames. With all the cameras pointing at me. I will tell everyone that I'm so proud to be a C你好nese athlete!T你好s is my hope .T你好s is the faith that I continue my steps with!!!With t你好s faith ,I will live though the strong wind and heavy rain ,never give up !So let victory ring from my heart, from all of you. When we allow victory to ring .I must be the one!In my imagination, I'm a bird ,a magical bird. I carry my dreams all with me by my big wings. I fly though the mountains ,though the forests ,over the sea, to the sun ,the warmest place in the aerospace!Every night ,I have a dream ,I see a girl ---smiling~

Following I will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job.
Once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” I will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these process I will combine learning with doing. If I can achieve this “future”， think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.
How to say future? Maybe it’s a nice wish. Lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.
That’s all thank you!

青岛早报的记者,我参观了詹姆斯·吉尔曼博士国际委员会主席马可·波罗研究在英国。在这张照片,这是詹姆斯,这是我和我们看龙的牙齿。这是一个真实的故事。
65年前,詹姆斯住在青岛。然后他才5岁。他经常参观了水族馆展出生物非常着迷,他认为是龙。他害怕它的锋利的牙齿和想要一个保持作为一个宝贝。
在1930年代末,日本占领青岛时,他的家人不得不离开。在他最后一天在青岛,他跑到水族馆,拿出从龙嘴里的牙齿。
他把牙在接下来的65年,但在有内疚的感觉偷了它在后台有所有通过他的生命。它总是在他的良心,加剧了他成为老的感觉。最后,他决定把他的幼稚的错误。20xx年,他访问了青岛和返回到水族馆和他真诚的道歉。他收到了热烈的欢迎。
当詹姆斯访问青岛,我陪他在他的访问和报道。我被深深感动了他的诚实。它教会了我很多,我想人非圣贤孰能无过。重要的是有勇气去承认和改正错误。
诚实是一种重要的人类行为的质量。所以我们应该尽量保持一个诚实的在我们说,所做的一切。我想对我所有的朋友说:老实说好品德的人。
谢谢你!

Life isnt about keeping score. Its not about how many friends you have or how accepted you are.
Not about if you have plans this weekend or if youre alone.
It isnt about who youre dating, who you used to date, how many people youve dated, or if you havent beem with anyone at all.
It isnt about who you have kissed.
Its not about sex.
It isnt about who your family is or how much money they have Or what kind of car you drive.
Or where you are sent to school.
Its not about how beautiful or ugly you are.
Or what clothes you wear, what shoes you have on, or what kind of music you listen to.
Its not about if your hair is blonde, red, black, or brown or if your skin is too light or too dark.
Not about what grades you get, how smart you are, how smart everybody else thinks you are, or how smart standardized tests say you are.
Its not about representing your whole being on a piece of paper and seeing who will "accept the written you."
Dear teacher and schoolmates,1t’s a great pleasure for me to be today and share my experience of learning English with you.I'm interested in English and hope to be an interpreter in the future.Naturally lt’s very important for me to learn English well .As everybody knows vocabular is an important part of language, just like bricksin a building .I usually memorize twenty new words a day and put them to use whenever possible . After class.I often listen to English programs on TV and on the radio .Besides ,I've learned a lot from the Internet and other sources.
Now.I'd like to make some suggestions on English teaching and learning in our school.Firstly ,we should be given more opportunities to use what we’ve learned ln order to have a better grasp of it.Secondly.I hope our teachers can recommend more interesting books and magazines and give us more free time to read them. Finally，1 suggest we have more Endish activities，such as English contests and festivals.
Thank you for listening.
Are you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?
Many people have sought a variety of sources for their feeling of happiness. Some people have put their heart and efforts into their work. Too many people turned to drugs and alcohol. Untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, and other popular toys. Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact : people rare looking for a lasting source of happiness
Today , some people think that an expensive car is stimults . Happiness is a response , and so on .This belief leaves us thinking and feeling : I will be happy when ……
But , I believe that happiness is a sttimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy ,when we are happy ,we tend to have more success in our work . When we are happy , people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationship . When we are happy , wo more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health . Happiness is not a response ----rather , it is a stimults .
Happiness is a conscious choice we make everyday of our lives . We usually get things we want after we choose to be happy . I think you can make only one simple rule for your own happiness . Every day above ground is a good day . Therefore , I tend to have a lot of good days in successsion!
