一个十二岁的女孩，高高的个子，瓜子型的脸上镶嵌着一对大眼睛，长长的睫毛显得大眼睛十分灵动，不仅如此，她还遗传妈妈，双眼皮宽宽的，但是她也像妈妈一样戴上了眼镜。她有宽宽的脑门，鼻子下面是一张能说会道的嘴巴。你猜出这是谁了吗?其实，这就是我!

我在学校是一个乖巧听话，令老师喜欢的孩子，谁会相信这样一个女孩回到家就摇身一变，成了顽皮，又带着无理取闹的丫头了，但这却是事实。

在家里，我和妈妈吵吵闹闹是常有的事，因为互不服气。有一次，我和妈妈去参加她朋友的婚礼，当时下了雨，天气较凉，但我依然想穿着裙子去，妈妈不肯，为了这事，我们吵了起来。“可以穿，坐车去又不冷!”“不可能，你想感冒吗?”妈妈瞪着我，眼睛像葡萄一样大，我则毫不示弱，昂着头像小斗鸡似的，吵个不停。最后妈妈要发怒了，我一看，赶紧妥协，撇着嘴，带着满腔不情愿说：“不穿，行了吧。”这就是我，双面性格的我。

在学校担任班长职务的我，当然要开班会了。我清了清嗓子，走上讲台，开始了首次班会。

“同学们，我们今天来学习中学生日常行为规范……”我有条不紊的进行着班会，这可都要靠我平时积累的生活和六年在校的经验，而且还有我良好的语言表达能力。我按老师说的，提问同学，举例说明等等。要知道，现在我能站在台上大胆发言，是因为小学时担任过许多活动的主持人，充分锻炼了自己，所以我有信心开好班会。在老师的总结和同学们的掌声中我走下了讲台，顺利结束了班会。这就是我，自信勇敢的我。

每个星期天，我都不会错过科技频道《自然传奇》这个节目。有时看得入迷，妈妈叫我两三次我都没有听见。我喜欢它是因为它能告诉我自然界的许多知识，比如蚂蚁筑巢，各种蜘蛛如何捕食，植物的很多特点等等。而我最大的梦想，注意不是理想，就是去全球动植物最丰富的亚马逊丛林历险。这就是我，热爱自然的我。

这就是我，有双面性格的我;这就是我，自信勇敢的我;这就是我，热爱自然的我，你们了解我了吗?

每年过春节是我最开心的日子，家家户户挂上红红的灯笼，贴上对联，小孩子穿上新衣、大家坐在一起吃团圆饭，最开心的事是放烟花。

我六岁那年春节，吃完团圆饭后，我和弟弟飞快的跑到院子里放烟花，我小心翼翼地用打火机往引线上一碰，我和弟弟就跑，只见烟花空而起飞上天空像一簇菊花，我们的烟花一朵朵炸开，有的好像陀螺一样，在地上转来转去;有的仿佛天女散花似的，在空中撒出五彩的“花朵”;还有的有如天外流星一般，在空中飞驰而过……美丽极了!

To learn what’s new today.

Honorable judges, dear boys and girls,good afternoon!

It is my honour to have the opportunity to deliever a speech here.Today my

topic is that“No imagination no invention”.As we know, imagination is the power

of invention,many inventions just begin with the sparking of imagination.

There is no doubt that if you could not imagine so many good inventions

would not arise. Lenin said: Imagination is extremely valuable

qualities.Imagine, if not, the world will be how to, perhaps can only be a

gray.Have imagination is the root cause of human stronger than other animals.No

imagination of human development and progress will not have any.Einsteins

theory of relativity can find because of his childlike imagination. Jobs created

Apple, but also from his simply idea and refined imagination.

But, nowadays, people gradually lose their imagination, or the imagination

of people have been killed.Under the exam-oriented education，only the standard

answer is correct, the deviated answer is wrong.This causes scores become the

dominant factor,so student had to give up their imagination,began to rote

memorization.To realize Chinas dream and the national rejuvenation, can without

imagination?

If people stopped fantasy, then this is a real sign of the decline of

humanity. Imagination is the basis for the creation of the invention. With bold

Imagination, science was evolving, with rich imagination, before the era of

constantly advancing. We should protect childrens imagination and develop their

creativity. China may create a dream realized.

尊敬的评委们，亲爱的同学们，下午好!

很荣幸有这样一个机会在这里演讲，今天我演讲的题目是:“No imagination no

invention”。众所周知，想象力是发明创造的动力，许多发明都是由想象的闪现开始的。

毫无疑问的说，如果没有想象，如此多优秀的发明就没有出现的可能。列宁说过：想象是极其可贵的品质，设想一下，如果没有想象，世界将会怎样，也许只会是一片灰色。拥有想象力是人类强于其他动物的根本原因。没有想象力的人类将不会有任何的发展与进步。爱因斯坦之所能发现相对论，就是因为他的童真的想象力。乔布斯创造了苹果，也来源于他的简约理念和脱俗的想象力。

但是，现如今，人们渐渐失去了想象力，或者说人们的想象力在不断被扼杀，应试教育下，只有标准答案才是正确的，偏离答案就是错的，这使分数成了主导因素，学生不得不放弃自己的想象，开始死记硬背，试问要想实现中国梦和实现民族复兴，没有想象力行么?

如果人们停止了幻想，那么这就是人类衰落的真正征兆。想象力是创造发明的基础。有了大胆的创想，科学才不断发展，有了丰富的想象，时代才不断前进。我们应该保护孩子们的想象力，发挥他们的创造性。为中国梦的实现创造可能。

"Saying" claims, suggesting that food for us how important it is! However, you have in the diet, pay attention to diet and health? If you do not pay attention to health may be because a little small negligence lost precious life.

Although I was a pupil, but I know there are plenty of knowledge about food safety! For example cant buy things from a market stall, in the absence of hygiene license at a restaurant, can not eat expired, deterioration, "3 without" food, not eating undercooked, and so on. I also know when to buy small food, pay attention to view the following several aspects: one is to choose good reputation, stable quality of famous brand; 2 it is to pay attention to check the product producer name and address on the package, food production date and shelf life, refused to buy "3 without" product; Three is to check food and qualified, the nutrients contained, color fresh degree; Four is to pay attention to the quality and price, small food of ultra-low prices dont buy; Fifth, pay attention to check the food of trademark signs, and so on.

You see, we must choose good food, eat food or it may bring us life risk.

“民以食为天”，这说明食品对于我们来说是多么的重要!不过，你在饮食过程中有没有注意饮食卫生呢?如果你不注意，卫生就可能因为一点儿小小的疏忽而丢失宝贵的生命。

虽然我还是一个小学生，可我懂得的关于食品安全的知识可不少呢!比如说不能在小摊上买东西、不能在没有卫生许可证的餐厅吃饭、不能吃过期、变质、“三无”食品、不能吃未煮熟的东西等等。我还知道在购买小食品时，注重查看以下几个方面情况：一是要选择信誉好、质量稳定的知名品牌;二是要注意查看产品包装上的厂名、厂址、食品生产日期和保质期，拒绝购买“三无”产品;三是检查食品和合格、所含的营养成分、色泽新鲜程度;四是注意质价相符，对超低价格的小食品不要购买;五是注重检查该食品的食品商标标志等等。

大家看吧，我们吃食物时一定要选择好的食物，否则就有可能给我们带来生命危险。

Today is December 24, is a traditional day to sweep the dust. Home for cleaning, of course, for me, I will act with my father and mother, and do a lot of work.

Most of the work is done before, today the most main is to rub the lamp. I help my father moved to the ladder, the ladder is quite heavy, still stand in the corner, I had a lot of strength to move it out, this want to stand up to wipe, tried out of reach, is still a little afraid. The results or father above dusted off, pick the chimney, I then below. By cleaning cloth, then pass them to my father.

Chimney is so dirty! I take a dishcloth scraping on the lamp shade, the original one in the chimney of mud, a new shine bright again. I think the restaurant is the lamp of cleaned the best. Originally, the lamp that Turkish above all sludge, every time I turn on the light, feel very dark.

今天是腊月二十四，是传统的扫尘的日子。这天，自然，家里要进行大扫除了，我呢，也就和爸爸妈妈一起行动，干了不少的活儿。

大部分活儿之前都干完了，今天最主要的就是擦灯。我帮爸爸搬来梯子，梯子挺沉，还立在角落里，我费了好多劲儿才把它挪出来，本想自己站上去擦，试了试够不着，还有点害怕。结果就还是爸爸在上面掸尘，摘灯罩，我在下面接着。顺便再清洗抹布，再把它们传给爸爸。

灯罩可真脏啊!我拿着抹布对着灯罩刮来刮去，将原来一摸一手泥的灯罩，擦得崭新透亮。我自认餐厅的灯擦得最好了。原来，这盏土耳其语上面全是污泥，每次开灯，都觉得很暗。但是，在我用了‘威猛先生’擦过之后，原来脏兮兮的灯罩立马变了一个样，开开灯马上就觉得亮了几分。

在擦灯的过程中，我还见缝插针地顺便清洁了一下洗手池，白白的，干净地能映出我的笑脸了。

最后我还帮妈妈擦了踢脚线，因为妈妈这几天腰疼，不能弯腰了。妈妈告诉我擦踢脚的立面和上面的楞儿。在擦阳台踢脚线时，我擦下来一堆渣子，有墙皮，有石粒，还有灰尘毛毛，平时不起眼儿的小地方，想不到会这么的脏。干活儿也不容易。

虽然今天很累，但是面对亮亮的灯照得明亮的家，洁净的洗手池和干净的踢脚线，我很高兴，很有成就感!爸爸妈妈也夸我真是很能干!

Recently, we have made a survey of the people on physical training. Only 35 percent of the people surveyed have taken part in physical activities.

Over half of the people say they haven’t got enough time to take exercises. 34.9 percent of them complain they don’t have places where they can relax themselves and that there are not enough training facilities, while another 12.9 percent of the people feel that they live too far away from the training centers. Some of them even don’t know how to train.

For lack of physical training, many people are not in good health. People should realize the importance of it, and measures should be taken to provide people with training facilities.

最近,我们做了一个调查在体能训练的人。只有35%的受访者参加体育活动。

超过一半的人说他们没有足够的时间锻炼。34.9%的人抱怨他们没有地方可以放松自己,没有足够的训练设施,而另外12.9%的人认为他们生活从培训中心太远。他们中的一些人甚至不知道如何训练。

因为缺乏体育锻炼,许多人不健康状况良好。人们应该意识到它的重要性,并应采取措施为人们提供训练设施。

Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. The Spring Festival is very exciting, especially on the eve of the Spring Festival.

春节对于中国人来说是最重要的节日。在每年的春节都让人兴高采烈，尤其是大年三十那晚，更是达到了高潮。

The Spring Festival lasts for 15 days, there would be starting on the first day, to the end of the January 15 Lantern Festival.it is the busiest time of the year for Chinese people. The arrangements they have to make for family reunions， buying necessities and preparing food keeps them busy throughout the holiday. Many of them travel back home and meet friends over dinner and drinks. The celebrations include decorating the house and setting off fireworks.But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.

春节一共有15天，从大年初一开始，到元月十五元宵节这一天结束。在这段比较长的时间是中国人最忙的时候，他们为家庭聚会作安排，采购年货，准备丰盛的食物，以至于整个春节假期都忙忙碌碌的。许多人在春季期间都要回老家过年，跟朋友碰碰头，聚个餐。庆祝春节也包括大扫除和放烟火。但是我们现在要谈的是越来越淡的年味。

Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

现在的春节已经因为我国经济的发展和全球化的影响而改变了很多。

Yet no Spring Festival is complete without food. People could not get good food whenever they desired in earlier times， something that does not apply to society today. More often than not， people faced the risk of famine. The best time for people to celebrate was when food was available in plenty， and that was possible in spring， or the beginning of the lunar new year. That was the main reason why Spring Festival acquired such great importance among Chinese people.

但是没有哪个春节是完全离得开“吃”的。从前，不论人们提前多久想要买年货，总是不能如愿，而现在早已今非昔比。过去常常还要闹饥荒。人们最好的庆祝时间就是他们能得到食物丰盛的时候，也就是春天或是元月初的那段时间。那也是为什么春节对于中国人如此重要的主要原因。

But three decades of economic growth has ensured that people in China， except for those who are still poor， can enjoy a good meal whenever they want. Such has been the change in people‘s fortune that some have to be treated for obesity and other health problems associated with excessive eating.

但是三十年来的经济发展已经让中国人，除了那些仍然穷苦的人以外，随时都能享受美食。这得益于人民财富的增长，但是后者也导致一些人吃得太多而受到肥胖威胁和健康问题。

In the past， celebrations were limited to events like song-and-dance duets in North China， dragon/lion dances in South China and fireworks， which required the joint efforts of the entire community. But economic development and urbanization seems to have weakened the social links among people. Many， especially those living in cities， are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.

在过去，庆祝春节还只停留在北方的二人转和南方的舞龙舞狮等形式。那些庆祝活动往往需要许多人合力才能办得起来。但是经济的发展和国际化程度的提升似乎已经将这种社会联系弱化了。许多人，特别是城市居民，不太愿意与不相识的人一起共度春节。

Many customs associated with Spring Festival have changed， too. In the past， people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes. Today， many people， especially the youth， use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even "gifts" to their relatives and friends. Some may say this a sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones， but we should see this development as a time- and energy-saving exercise granted by the information age.

与春节相关的许多习俗也被改变了。在过去，人们常常会带着礼物走亲访友，互道祝福。今天许多人，特别是年轻人，用手机或是网络向亲朋好友发去“礼物”和祝福。有些人或许会说，这说明人们已经没有那么关心至爱亲朋了，但是我们应该把这种变化看作信息化时代省钱省力的好办法。

In recent times， many people have started praying for a career promotion or more money instead of invoking God or the Buddha for a healthy and long life and the welfare of their family. But the number of such people is decreasing now， which shows that people are becoming more reasonable.

最近几年，许多人开始祈祷事业高升，财源滚滚，而不是求神拜佛，他们身体健康，长命百岁，家庭美满。但是这样的人数现在正在减少，说明人们开始变得更加理性。

Christmas is coming, I have a lot of desire to achieve, to the snow outside the window I quietly pray:

Dear Santa Claus: please give me a time machine. I would be very happy, thank you! Do you see my smile will be very happy, right?

I also hope I can fly machine, fifty tea eggs, one hundred popsicles, a refrigerator, a picture of a lady Yang portraits, article 50 sausage, a rod and an automatic pencil. All of these things should be easy to tidy up, and sent to me, I will share with my friends, you say?

Who are you building? Is god? If its mom and dad posing as, I want to thank you. I want to have a read, dont worry mom and dad. My wishes in this Christmas.

圣诞节就要到了，我有很多愿望想实现，对着窗外的皑皑白雪我轻声的祈祷：

亲爱的圣诞老公公：请送给我一个时光机。我会非常高兴，谢谢你!你看到我的笑容一定会非常开心，对不对?

我还希望我有可以飞的机器、五十个茶叶蛋、一百个冰棒、一个冰箱、一幅杨贵妃肖像画、五十条香肠、一支鱼竿和一枝自动铅笔。这些东西应该都很容易整理好，送给我，我会跟我的朋友们一起分享，你说可好?

你是谁打造的?是上帝吗?如果是爸爸、妈妈假扮的，我要好好感谢你们。我要好好读书，不要再让爸爸、妈妈操心。在这个圣诞佳节献上我的祝福满满。
