乌鸦和狐狸英语演讲稿小学（精选31篇）
After being cheated of the meat by the fox, the crow stood on the branchand scolded for three days and three nights.
Since then, crows are very wary of foxes, afraid of being cheatedagain.
One day, the crow found a piece of meat. It took the meat in its mouth andstopped on the branch to rest.
He was very alert. He looked left and right for fear that the meat would becheated by the sly fox again.
At this time, the fox is humming a little song in the walk, smelling thesmell of meat, followed the fragrance.
After a while, he came to the tree where the crow stopped.
When the fox saw that it was a crow, he was very happy. He thought tohimself: This crow is very stupid. Last time he said that his singing was good,he cheated the meat away.
It looks like another piece of meat is coming this time.
Seeing that it was a fox, the crow immediately hung the meat on the branchand asked warily, "brother fox, I havent seen you for a long time. What are youdoing this time?"
The fox said calmly, "its nothing more than to admit the mistake with thebrother crow."
The crow said angrily, "brother fox, dont be hurt!"
The fox pretended to be a little sad and said, "brother crow, last time Imsorry for you. I lied to you because I was wrong. I deserve to die! This time,you can do whatever you want to do to me!"
The crow said, "then you will return the meat you cheated me lasttime."
When the fox heard this, he was very angry and forced to bear the anger inhis heart and said: "brother crow, I have eaten the meat last time.
I know a place where there is a lot of meat. Its not a long way. I have nostrength. You give me your piece of meat to eat. When I have strength, I willtake two back to you. "
The crow listened happily and said, "well, Ill give you the meat." Then hetook the meat off the branch and gave it to the fox.
The fox ate the meat and said to the crow, "wait, Ill get the meat foryou." With that, the fox left in a hurry.
After a long time, the crow didnt see the fox come back, just suddenlyrealized that he had been cheated again.
Good morning everyone！
In that faraway village, small mountain village......" Ears suddenly echoed the" mother's kiss" this song, my heart cannot calm, reminds me of the great maternal love.
A mother's love is like a tired work well, when you are weak and feeble, a few bites refreshed; motherly love like helpless when hands, when you don't know what to do, just hold on its difficulties will be smoothly done or easily solved; maternal love as the sun in winter, when you cold despair, as long as bathed in the warmth of love, all the disappear in smoke in a moment. A mother's love is like a pastoral poem, remote, pure, and elegant light; a
mother's love is like a deep love song, melodious, lead a person to endless aftertastes; motherly love is like a landscape painting, quiet and beautiful, tranquil and elegant. The maternal love is a growing Yanyinqipan children; maternal love is concerned about their children before bed anxious; motherly love is drifting continuously miss the Earth children; maternal love is the sons and daughters of life concomitant joke.

Traveling is kind of like being in love. Except instead of being intimatewith another person, you become intimate with a place. Those moments of pleasurewhen the sun hits your face and you look out onto a foreign countryside, orarrive at a new train depot in a bustle of taxis and hawkers—those are themoments you, or at least I, remember, and live for, again and again.
旅行从某种意义来讲就像是在谈恋爱，就像是在和恋人亲密热恋一样，只不过是你和一个地方变亲密。当阳光普照在你的脸庞上时，在你看到窗外异国乡村风情时，当你在熙来攘往的.人群车流中或打的或坐拉脚车去一个新车站时，这些都是快乐时光，至少那个时刻的你，给自己留下了记忆，而且这些快乐的记忆又是如此鲜活。
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.
A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.
A careless word may kindle strife; a cruel word may wreck a life; a timely word may level stress; a loving word may heal and bless.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.
There was once a guy who suffered from cancer, a cancer that can?'t be cured. He was 18 years old and he could die anytime. All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken cared by his mother. He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once. So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.
He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked. He stopped and went back to look into the store. He saw a beautiful girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight. He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her. He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.
She looked up and asked, “Can I help you?”
She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.
He said, “Uh… Yeah… Umm… I would like to buy a CD.”
He picked one out and gave her money for it.
"Would you like me to wrap it for you?” she asked, smiling her cute smile again.
He nodded and she went to the back. She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him. He took it and walked out of the store.
He went home and from then on, he went to that store every day and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet. He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn't. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her. So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store as usual. He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn't looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out…
One day the phone rang, and the mother picked it up and said, “Hello?”
It was the girl! The mother started to cry and said, “You don?'t know? He passed away yesterday…”
The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy's mother. Later in the day, the mother went into the boy?'s room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet.
She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one. Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it. It said: Hi… I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD…
Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi… I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
Love is… when you?'ve had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, “I Love You.”

One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy withthe
meat in his mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so heswallowed
and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the foxsaid to
the crow, the crow just kept silent. Until the fox thought highly of thecrow’s
beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing. Assoon as
the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into hishole.
Hello everybody, I am pleased to stand here and start my speech. I like dogs. No matter what kind of dog. Dogs are a very insecure animals.
Even if you walk alone in the dark, as long as there is nothing to fear, accompanied by dogs. Anyone who does not want to be protected it?

They would take advantage of your hand, will be spoiled. Issued very cute voice. I like dogs. No matter what kind dog .

A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settleon a branch of a tree. ‘That’s for me, as I am a Fox,’ said Master Reynard, andhe walked up to the foot of the tree. ‘Good-day, Mistress Crow,’ he cried. ‘Howwell you are looking to-day: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. Ifeel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does;let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.’The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she openedher mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up byMaster Fox. ‘That will do,’ said he. ‘That was all I wanted. In exchange foryour cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future .’Do not trustflatterers.

Honorable Judges, fellow students:
Good afternoon!
Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students arethe beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education atextraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and supportourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Willwe be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of ourcountry?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, whichwould cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The collegestudents I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We helpeach other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take parttime jobs to supplement our pocket money.
The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect theneed for character cultivation. But again, the cynics are wrong. We care deeplyfor each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. Lastweek, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order tomake a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point inour lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each willprofoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. I believe inall my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a littlebit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challengeand take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume newresponsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to makeour world a better place. I believe in our future.
尊敬的评委，各位同学：
下午好!
最近，社会上有一场很激烈的争论。大学生是一种稀有特权的享有者，在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是，我们能面对挑战而无所畏惧吗?我们能够改善他人的生活吗?我们能够承担建设祖国未来的重任吗?
怀疑论者说大学生是被宠坏的一代，一丁点挫折都受不了。但是他们错了，我所看到的大学生正在努力的学习独立生活。我们互相帮助打扫卫生，一起上街砍价购物，一起参加兼职工作来赚零花钱。
怀疑论者说我们除了成绩什么都不关心，从而忽略了性格的培养。但是，他们又错了。我们彼此关心，我们向往自由，我们珍惜公正，我们追求真理。上个星期，很多我的同学去验血，为了给患血癌的孩子贡献自己的力量。
作为大学生，我们是处在人生分水岭的青年。我们都面临一个重要的选择：怀疑人生还是相信自己，每一种都会给我们的人生带来重大的影响，甚至影响我们祖国的未来。我相信我们的同学们，虽然我们依然缺乏经验，甚至有些志气，但是我相信我们有勇气和自信来面对生活的挑战并承担我们的责任。我们正努力准备接受新的任务，用我们所学习的知识将世界变得更美好。我对我们的未来充满信心。
20年来，魏国强(音译)的目光一直没有离开过中国足球，但值得庆祝的理由却是少之又少。
"Its like the Chinese saying; you always think your children are the most beautiful no matter how ugly they are," the 30-year-old education specialist told CNN in Beijing.
“中国有句俗话：‘母不嫌子丑，狗不嫌家贫，’ 我对中国足球也是这样的心情。” 这位30岁的教育专家在北京接受CNN采访时说。
Dogged by poor performances on the pitch and corruption scandals off it, the Chinese game has been far from beautiful.
绿茵场上球员的欠佳表现和一些贪腐丑闻，中国足球一直不被看好。
But die-hard soccer fans like Wei finally have something to cheer about.
但是像魏先生这样的死忠球迷终于等到了这样一个欢呼雀跃的时刻。
Guangzhou Evergrande, a soccer team based in the southern city of Guangzhou, became Asian champions on Saturday, beating South Koreas FC Seoul to claim Chinas first continental title in 23 years in a stadium packed to capacity with fans wearing the teams blood-red colors.
11月9日星期六，来自南方城市广州的俱乐部球队广州恒大，在坐无虚席、尽是恒大鲜红球迷的主场击败韩国首尔FC，荣获亚冠联赛冠军，这也是中国足球在23年以来夺得第一个亚洲冠军。
"They are persistent and never surrender," said Wei, who watched the match on television at home.
“他们坚持不懈，从不言弃，” 魏先生说，他在家中的电视机前观看了比赛直播。
Evergrande will now play in the FIFA Club World Cup in December, pitting the team against the likes of German giants and reigning European champions Bayern Munich. Previous winners of the tournament include Chelsea, Manchester United and Barcelona.
今年12月恒大还将出征国际足联世界俱乐部杯，有机会与欧冠强队、德国劲旅拜仁慕尼黑场上较量。世俱杯之前的冠军得主有切尔西、曼联和巴塞罗那等。
China last tasted international success at club level in 1990 when Liaoning lifted the trophy of the now expired Asian Club Championship. Its national team has also punched below the countrys weight.
中国最近一次品尝国际俱乐部级的成功是在1990年，辽宁队举起了亚洲足球俱乐部冠军联赛(现已停办)的奖杯。国家队一直没有令人瞩目的表现。
Despite being one of the countrys most popular sports -- President Xi Jinping is said to be a big fan -- China failed to qualify for the 20__ World Cup and did not enter the running for the 20__ tournament.
尽管足球是中国最受欢迎的体育项目之一——据说国家主席 也是足球迷——但中国没有打入20__世界杯，也没有入围20__年世界杯承办权的角逐。
Evergrandes rise to the top of Asian football has been fast and furious and some say it could be Asias first "superclub."
恒大以迅雷不及掩耳之势跃居亚洲足球之冠，有人说，它可能成为亚洲第一家“超级俱乐部”。
In early 20__, the team was bought by Xu Jiayin, the boss of property developer Evergrande Real Estate Group and Chinas 13th richest man, according to Forbes.
20__年初，福布斯中国富人榜名列13的恒大地产集团老板许家印出手买下这支球队。
He paid 100 million yuan ($16.4 million) for the club, shocking many as the team had recently been relegated to the second division of Chinas league. In 20__, they won the Chinese Super League and claimed the league title for the third time this year.
他为俱乐部投入1亿人民币(合1千4百万美元)，这样的大手笔让许多人吃惊不小，因为这支球队当时刚被降级中甲。20__年，他们重返中超夺冠，并在今年第三次蝉联冠军。
Dong Jianzheng, an editor at the Chinese-language World Soccer Magazine, credits Xus deep pockets as the main reason for the teams success.
《足球世界》杂志中文版编辑董建峥将该球队的成功归功于许家印的经济实力。
The club has spent at least 1.5 billion yuan ($250 million) in the past three years, according to The China Daily, recruiting domestic stars and foreign players like Brazilian striker Muriqui. The team is led by Marcello Lippi, who coached the Italian team that won the 20__ World Cup.
根据《中国日报》的报道，恒大在过去的3年里至少花掉15亿元人民币(合2亿5千万美元)，招募国内球星和巴西中锋穆里奇等外援。该队的主教练马尔切洛·里皮曾率意大利队问鼎20__年世界杯。
"The Evergrande model is similar to Chelsea and Manchester, where they win simply because they invest," Dong told CNN.
“恒大模式类似于切尔西和曼联，他们赢，只因为舍得下本钱投资，” 董先生接受CNN采访时说。
"They have a strong team and a large number of foreign players. They are good because they dare to throw in their money." But he said Evergrandes success doesnt represent the big picture.
“他们有实力强大的球队，有很多外援加盟。他们之所以出色，因为敢于砸钱投资。但是，他说恒大的成功并不代表大环境。
A bribery investigation that led to several players, referees and managers serving jail terms has left many fans disillusioned with the Chinese game.
中国足球贪污受贿案将一些球员、裁判和经理人送进监狱，导致许多粉丝不再对中国足球抱有幻想。
Rowan Simons, the author of "Bamboo Goalposts: One mans quest to teach the Peoples Republic of China to love football", says corruption reaches down to the sports grassroots, which suffer from a lack of investment.
《足球无疆》的作者罗文·西蒙斯说，足球投资匮乏，腐败侵蚀到了足球运动的根基。
"Parents will bribe the coach to get (their child) into the team, teams will bribe the referee to win the game," said Simons, who has lived and played football in China for more than 20 years.
“父母向教练行贿，这样他们的孩子才能进球队，球队行贿裁判赢球，” 住在中国与中国足球打了20多年交道的西蒙斯说。
Hopes are high that Evergrandes arrival on the international soccer stage will give a much-needed boost to the countrys football system.
恒大登上国际足球舞台将给予中国足球体制亟待的推动，人们对此寄予厚望。
The president of the Asian Football Confederation, which runs the regions premier tournament, said that Evergrandes win would infuse new life into Chinese football and spread the game to a wider audience.
亚洲足联主席表示，恒大的成功将为中国足球注入新活力，吸引更多的观众。亚足联主要负责举办地区性的重要足球赛事。
"I am confident that this will benefit not only the Chinese Super League but also the national team in a big way," said Shaikh Salman bin Ebrahim.
“我相信，这一成功不仅对中超而且对国家队都极为有利，” 亚足联主席谢赫萨尔曼·本·易卜拉欣说。
But they will have a hard time convincing fans like Cui, an engineer, who spends his spare time glued to the English Premier League, Europes UEFA Champions League and Spains La Liga.
但是他们想拥有像崔工程师一样的球迷还有很长一段路要走，崔先生把业余时间都花在看英超联赛、欧冠比赛和西甲联赛上。
He says he wont make the effort to watch Evergrandes FIFA Club World Cup match against Egyptian side Al Ahly in December. "The time difference is a challenge, but I still choose foreign matches because they are much more professional," he told CNN.
他说，他对12月的俱乐部世界杯恒大对埃及阿赫利的比赛兴趣不大，。“尽管时差是一大挑战，但是我仍然选择外国的球赛，因为他们专业得多，”他告诉CNN。
Our character, basically, is a composite of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny,” the maxim goes.
Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a strand of it everyday and soon it cannot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But I also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous commitment.
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were transfixed as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts literally had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half a million miles.
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply imbedded habitual tendencies such as procrastination, impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that violate basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new dimension.
Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the cohesiveness and order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.
What qualities do you think a friend should have to continue the friendship? Use specific reasons to support your idea.
In my heart, I think the most important quality to continue the friendship is sincerity. A true friendship must be built on sincerity. However, to continue a friendship is not a easy thing. Both of each other have to pay a lot. The word sincerity contains too much. Firstly, we need to be frank and honest to each other. Only if when we did so can the other side treat us like the same and thus build belief between friends. A friendship full of lies and deceit shouldn't be called friendship. Secondly, we need to be considerable and do not be self-centered. We should think more for our friends and encourage them on certain occasion. A self-centered friend can be very troublesome and annoying. No one would tolerate him for a long time. Finally, I think we should learn to compromise sometimes. We can't live in harmony forever with our friends. When there expose a disagreement, we should compromise to each other. Only by this way can a friendship last long.

你认为一个朋友应该有什么品质继续友谊?使用具体原因来支持你的想法。
在我心中,我认为最重要的品质继续友谊是真诚。真正的友谊必须建立在真诚之上。然而,继续友谊不是一件容易的事情。彼此都需要支付很多。诚信这个词包含了太多。首先,我们需要彼此坦率而诚实的。只有当我们这样做可以另一边同样对待我们像,从而建立朋友间的信念。友谊充满了谎言和欺骗不应该叫做友谊。其次,我们需要相当大的,不要以自我为中心。我们应该更多的为我们的朋友,鼓励他们在某些场合。一个以自我为中心的朋友会很麻烦的,烦人。没有人会容忍他很长一段时间。最后,我认为我们应该学会妥协。我们不能永远活在和谐与我们的朋友。暴露有分歧的时候,我们应该相互妥协。只有这样,友谊才能长久。
What is a great book? There is no end to the making of books. Nor doesthere seem to be any end to the making lists of great books. There has always bemore books than one could read. You can be happy at the fact that the number ofthat is relatively small.
However,today,people usually leave it in the library. According to thenational reading survey issued by The China Academy of Press and Publication, in20__, only 55% Chinese aged between18 and 70 book read books .That is to say,there are more than forty percent of the people seldom read in China.
It is a great challenge to literature. As a educated student,have youinsist on reading great books. In order to change the situation ,we must takeactions to read great books.
In Adler’s essay of What is A Great Book, he explain why we should readgreat books. I conclude it as follows.
First,great books are the most readable. They will not let you down ,if youread them well. The have more ideas per page than most books in the theirentirety. This is why you can read a great book over and over again and neverexhaust it contents.
Second ,great books are always contemporary,in contrast to the books wecalled contemporary,because they are currently popular ,last for a year ortow,or ten at most. You may probably can not recall the names of many earlierbest sellers,and you may probably would not be interest in reading them. But thegreat are never out modeled by the movement of thought or the shifting winds ofopinion .
Third ,great books are the most instructive. This follows the fact thatthey are original communications. They contain what cannot be found in otherbooks. Whether you ultimately agree or disagree what they say. They are theprimary teachers of mankind. They have made basic contribution to human right.
Just giving you the reason is not enough, I will give you some methods torealize you reading dream.
Firstly,you can begin with a interesting novel. You will be attracted bythe figures,the plots .Than ,after reading a lot of books ,you may be get into ahabit of reading. So,you can contact with some complex books,such as philosophy,arts and so on. You will be shocked at the new world.
There are countless great books in our library,you must make greatadvantage of it. Of course ,it is a better choice to buy great books. Collectingbooks is a enjoyable thing,at least for me. So,reading great books. The newworld is coming.
We've all been taught that we should help people. It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. It may even win us favors in return. However, we must be realistic. We can't say yes to every request. If we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. In this case, we must know how to say no politely.
When we need to say no, here is one method we can try. First, we should tell the truth. If we really can't do something, we should just say so. Second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. We must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. A true friend will understand. Finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. It can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. In short, we cannot please everyone all the time. Refusing favors is a part of life.

if there is any single factor that makes for success in living, it is theability to profit by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because theperson was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his nextundertaking. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed indeed to failure.For it isn't defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeatthe guide and encouragement to success.
生活中如果有任何一个因素可以促进成功，那就是从挫折中受益的能力。我所了解的每一次达到的成功都是因为那个人能够对挫折进行分析，在下一次工作中真正得益。如果混淆挫折和失败，你就注定会真正失败。因为不是挫折使你失败，而是你自己拒绝从挫折中看到成功的方向和勇气。关于挫折的英语作文
Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are routine incidents in thelife of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you doface it without humiliation, analyze it and learn why you failed. Defeat, inother words, can help to cure its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us forsuccess, but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more andmore tightly until his whole weight is suspended. It is this same reaction whichshould give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If youexploit the power which defeat gives, you can accomplish with it far more thanyou are capable of.
挫折并不可耻。在每个取得成功的人的生活中，挫折是家常便饭。但你一定要能够面对挫折而不感到羞耻，能够分析它并了解失败的原因，否则挫折就是绝对的损失。换言之，挫折可以帮助解决它自身的起因。挫折不但可以为我们成功做好准备，而且没有任何东西可以在我们的内心激发起如此强烈的想要成功的欲望。如果你让一个婴儿抓住一根竿子，然后试着把竿子抽出来，孩子就会越抓越紧，直到他们整个重量都依附于此。每次你被击败的时候，正是这同样的反应会赋予你崭新的更为巨大的力量。如果你能够利用挫折带来的这种力量，你就能够用它来完成远远超乎你能力的目标。
One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy withthe
meat in his mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so heswallowed
and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the foxsaid to
the crow, the crow just kept silent. Until the fox thought highly of thecrow’s
beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing. Assoon as
the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into hishole.
有一天,一只乌鸦嘴里叼着一片肉，非常高兴的站在树枝上自己的窝旁。这时候，一只狐狸看见了，馋得直流口水，非常想得到那片肉。但是，无论狐狸说什么，乌鸦就是不理睬狐狸。最后，狐狸便赞美乌鸦的嗓音美，并请求乌鸦唱几句让他欣赏。乌鸦听了狐狸的奉承话得意极了，就真的唱起歌来。没想到，它一开口肉就掉了下来，狐狸叼起肉钻回了自己的洞。
There is a big tree in the forest. Crows live in the tree.
There is a hole under the tree. There is a fox in the hole.
One day, the crow took a piece of meat and stood on the tree to rest. Thefox saw it.
The fox was greedy for the meat from the crow.
The fox could not get it under the tree because the crow had meat in itsmouth on the branch.
The coveting of meat made the fox unwilling to give up easily.
He turned his eyes and said, "Dear crow, how are you?" the crow did notanswer.
The fox had to smile and say, "Dear crow, how is your child?" the crowlooked at the fox, but did not answer.
The fox wagged his tail and spoke for the third time: "Dear crow, yourfeathers are so beautiful. Sparrow is far from you.
Your voice is very good. Everyone loves to hear you sing. Would you like tosing a few words? "The crow was very proud when he heard this: he said I have agood voice, and the only one who loves to hear me sing is you, the fox, so hesang happily.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the meat fell from his mouth.
The fox took the meat and went into the hole, leaving only the crows to"sing" there.

Just make to it the finals, they had to get past 60 others speaking on “The impact of globalization on traditional Chinese values”。 That was at the semi-final on April 8-9. What will Chinese college students think about the impact? Each contestant had his own take on the subject. Xia summed up globalization by saying: “It’s just controversial and hard to say whether it is good or bad.” Xia took the old wall of his city, Nanjing, as a metaphor. He spoke about the conflict over whether to protect the old walls or tear them down to represent the conflict of ideas. He suggested that people protect the wall as a valuable relic while tearing down the “intangible walls” of their minds that prevent communication. While some other students are more focusing on the impact of globalization on family relations, attitudes towards love, and job-hunting.
Over the past 10 years, the national English speaking competition has given contestants a chance to speak on a variety of topics closely related to their lives. Chinese students become more open-minded and receive various ideas and thinking over the decade. Diversity becomes more obvious on campus, students have more opportunities to express and show themselves. It’s not an easy task for the contestants to win through the fierce competition. Owning to their passion, hard work and persistence, they finally succeeded in the contest.
Liu Xin, the first champion of the national contest, is now an anchorperson of CCTV-9. Recalling the passion of study on campus, she said: “When you want to express your idea by a foreign language without finding a right way, you’re really upset. Then you have to encourage yourself, and after a long term of bitterness, suddenly you find you get the right way with joy.” With the champion title in 21st Century Cup, Liu attended the International Public Speaking competition in London in May 1996 afterward and got the first prize historically.
The winner in 20xx surprised the audience, since she came from accounting major instead of English major. Gu Qiubei, then 22 years old, was a senior in Shanghai Foreign Studies University. While being asked whether she had some good methods to learn English, she said: “Learn English with passion and enthusiasm.” Attracted by the greatness of English language, Gu even changed her major from accounting to English in her postgraduate study. The most important issue in English learning process she pointed out is personal interests. Only people interested in English benefit a lot from the learning methods and those with passion will finally achieve their dreams.
When chief of global media giant Viacom Sumner Redstone gave a speech in Tsinghua University on his autobiography A Passion to Win, he was asked what made him to restart his career at the age of 60, the 81-year-old media tycoon said: “Firstly, there’s a self-driving force in my deep heart, which keeps my passion to succeed and surpass others; secondly, I don’t think I’m too old to leave work, actually I love my work very much.”
Some of the contestants have achieved their dreams as Redstone; still others are on the way to their dream. With a passion to win, you will overcome obstacles and succeed at the end.
I’m studying in a city that’s famous for its walls. People who visit my city are amazed at the imposing sight of its walls, especially when silhouetted against the setting sun with gold, shining streaks. The old, cracked bricks are covered with lichens and the walls are weather-beaten guards standing still for centuries.
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 across half our country. They built walls to protect against enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has survived to this day: 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 perceptions, however, changed after I made a hiking trip to the eastern suburbs of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some foreign students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by tall trees, which formed a wide canopy above our heads. Suddenly one foreign 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 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 and Cambridge 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. 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, 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 system would give us access to books from any library. With globalization and China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.
I know that globalization is a controversial issue, 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 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 the walls. These walls attract historians, archaeologists, and many schoolchildren who are trying to study our history and cultural heritage. 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.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West.
Waking up on New Year, everybody dresses up. First they extend greetings to their parents. Then each child will get money as a New Year gift, wrapped up in red paper. People in northern China will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think "jiaozi" in sound means "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new".
That Chinese people pay more attention to be polite,while it is different from other countries .And chinese culture is brilliant and they know how to use a brush to write
Now dragon is the symbol of the whole Chinese people.
Dragon is a animal worshipped by the Chinese people from the time immemorial. But what is it? No one knows.
Some people think that the Yanzi crocodile is the archetype of the dragon. However, most people hold that dragon is a combination of many animals. And the abilities of those animals have been collected to it. Wang Chong, once pointed that the horn of dragon liked deers one, the
honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.
good evening,
it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.
it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.
frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with them.indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions.
but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.
there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.
with the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture.
In winter, not spring flowers, the scenery pleasant, is not so scorchingsummer, thunder and lightning; Not so fruitful, autumn leaves fly: but it bringsus a flying snowflakes.
In the morning, I opened the Windows look: snowflakes slowly float, likephoto, such as catkin, like QingYouYou goose feather, like dandelion seeds,there are endless leisure, and just like the beautiful YinDie dance in thecourtyard, also seems to be a group of white elf, floating in the air, spinning,finally slowly fell on the ground, into numerous small water droplets ofdiamond.
Under the deck of snow, the earth became a snow-white, vanity jade build bylaying bricks or stones in the world. Nearby, some dead branches of the treescovered with a layer of fluffy, soft snow at the end of the son. While thesummer and winter evergreen trees, covered with a bead pearly snow to seed. Hitsthe trees under the white foil as one by one, beautiful girl. The wind blows,the branches gently shaking, the silver light flashing to seed, snowsnow son, at the end of the float down from the trees and leaves. Looked at thebeautiful snow, I can't help but sigh: "like night of spring breeze comessuddenly, thousands of critics, pear tree to open!"
Looked at the snow outside the window, I involuntarily stretch out hisarms, outside the window a little a few times, laid the palm of your hand, onlylight water lines. I stretched out a helping hand to the sky, and to god for afew snow flower, god seems to heart, after a while, a few naughty snow girl isslipped from my hand up into my mouth. The snow that I closed my eyes thenexperience the taste of cool and refreshing slowly into my heart.
good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
we've gone from losing 9 million jobs during the financial crisis to creating 10 million jobs. we've reduced the unemployment rate from 10% in october of to 6.1% today. and for the first time since the 1990s, american manufacturing is steadily5 adding jobs-over 700,000 since . and surveys of both american and foreign business leaders confirm that america once again is viewed as the best place in the world to build and invest.
that's all good news.
but an awful lot of middle class americans are still not feeling the effects of this recovery. since the year , gross domestic product-our gdp - has risen by 25%. and productivity in america is up by 30%. but middle class wages during that same time period have gone up by only fourteen cents.
folks, it's long past time to cut the middle class back into the deal, so they can benefit from the economic growth they helped create. folks, there used to be a bargain in this country supported by democrats6 and republicans, business and labor7. the bargain was simple. if an employee contributed to the growth and profitability of the company, they got to share in the profits and the benefits as well. that's what built the middle class. it's time to restore the bargain, to deal the middle class back in. because, folks, when the middle class does well, everybody does well-the wealthy get wealthier and the poor have a way up.
you know, the middle class is not a number. it's a value set. it means being able to own your home; raise your children in a safe neighborhood; send them to a good school where if they do well they can qualify to go to college and if they get accepted you'd be able to find a way to be able to send them to college. and in the meantime, if your parents need help, being able to take care of them, and hope to put aside enough money so that your children will not have to take care of you.
that's the american dream. that's what this country was built on. and that's what we'redetermined8 to restore.
in order to do that, it's time to have a fair tax structure, one that values paychecks as much as unearned income and inherited wealth, to take some of the burden off of the middle class. it's time to close tax loopholes so we can reduce the deficit9, and invest in rebuilding america - our bridges, our ports, our highways, rails, providing good jobs.
with corporate10 profits at near record highs, we should encourage corporations to invest more in research and development and the salaries of their employees. it's time for us to invest in educational opportunity to guarantee that we have the most highly skilledworkforce11 in the world, for 6 out of every 10 jobs in the near term is going to require some education beyond high school. folks, it's long past due to increase the minimum wage that will lift millions of hardworking families out of poverty target poverty and in the process produce a ripple12 effect that boosts wages for the middle class and spurs economic growth for the united states of america. economists13 acknowledge that if we do these and other things, wages will go up and we'll increase the gross domestic product of the united states.
my fellow americans, we know how to do this. we've done it before. it's the way we used to do business and we can do it that way again. all the middle class in this country want is a chance. no guarantee, just a chance.
americans want to work. and when given a fair shot, the american worker has never, ever, ever, let his country down. folks, it's never a good bet to bet against the american people.
thanks for listening.
I encourage you to look up the scene on YouTube – but not right now – because it’s still a very funny piece. And it’s funny because it’s ridiculous, but also because it contains a kernel of truth. And the truth applies not only to college presidents, but to all of us. How many times have we decided we’re against an idea before we’ve even heard it? How guilty are we of deciding “I’m against it” without even knowing what “it” is?
Many times, we know what we’re against based on who is saying it. If an idea comes from a certain public figure, politician, or media outlet, we already know how we feel. Partly this is because our public discourse has become so predictable. We’ve lost the capacity for surprise, for revelation. Speaking of predictable, here is the moment where an ambassador of an older generation – that would be me – tells millennials – most of you – about the evils of social media! But hear me out…
Obviously, social media has transformed our lives and our relationships. It obviously has many advantages, allowing us to share news and information quickly with people around the world. But it also heightens our sense of outrage and speeds up arguments, depriving us of the time and space for careful reflection. Bombarded with notifications, pressured to respond before the media cycle turns over, we tap out our position – our opposition – in seconds. It’s easy to be against something in fewer than 280 characters. It’s far more difficult to articulate what you are for – and to do it at warp speed.
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 ahour. Several 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 you. Let‘s show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well let‘s make a fist. where is our future? where is our love career and life? Tell me.Yeah it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don‘t cry because it is over smile because it happened. From the past we‘ve learnt that the life is tough but we are tougher. We‘ve learnt that we can‘t choose how we feel but we can choose what
about it. Failure doesn‘t mean you don‘t have it it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure 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”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world the world will give to us. And from today on let‘s be the owners of ourselves and speak out “We are the world we are the future.”
Good morning,everyone! Today I'm going to talk about inventions.
Inventions are created every day because people would like to make lifeeasier.There are famous inventions like the TV and the bicycle.TV provides uswith different kinds of information so that we can know more about the world.Wewatch entertainment programs to relax ourselves.Besides some learning programshelp us with our study.
The bicycle is very useful,too. We go to school or work by bike.It's notexpensive that most of us can afford it.It makes no pollution,which is good forour environment.What's more ,bicycle riding is a kind of exciting sports whichis quite good for our health.
Though there have been many great inventions, I wish to invent a kind ofpen which can help us write more quickly and neatly.When we meet problems indoing our homework or taking exams,it will tell us how to solve them.
That's all .Thank you very much.
