有关中国发展的英语演讲稿（实用20篇）

据网上报道显示，人大代表提出高考取消英文科目，赞同人数高达百分之八十二，这一话题也成为当今许多同学的热议，很多人认为：中国人学好国语就行，为何要学习外国的语言。

我认为英语成为我们学生的学习主科有其道理性和针对性的针对学生的发展未来。从对国家发展来看英语占全世界的国家讲的人数虽不是最多的，但却是分布的最广乏于国家的，包括很多的发达国家，中国学习这门语言对走出世界，同其他国家交流沟通发挥了很大的作用，如果取消这门沟通语言之门便少了日后中国发挥国际地位中的作用，众所周知，中国早已加入世界贸易组织，若贸然作出取消英语科目的决定，其进一步从长远地发展眼光看便可想而知。

作为学生，许多人的其他科目优势都能被英语这门科目好多了，但无论如何学好英语对学生的将来只有利大于弊，如果其他都学好只有英语差，对将来是不利的，要想睁大眼睛看世界，就得努力使自己插上翅膀飞出中国面对多样化，缤纷多彩的世界，到一个发达的地区闯出一片天，再把自己的国家发展好。

义务教育阶段时期在小学时便把语文，数学英语，这三门科目定为了主要学习科目，其实英语只要从小学基础打起，便觉得好学，多听，多说，脑海里会自然形成像语文那样会听，会说的一种能力。

Last week, I took part in an English speech contest which was held by our teachers. There were twelve students in the final contest. I was one of them.

Fifteen minutes before my turn, I picked my topic and prepared for it. I wrote down the outlines and organized what I was going to say. However, when I stood in front of all judges and students, I was extremely nervous. My mind was totally empty.

Then I took a deep breath to relax myself and started my speech. The result was not as good as I expected, but I preferred to regard it as a challenge to myself, whose process was the most important for me. I can learn a lot from this contest. I am sure I will be better next time.

中国地大物博，其中剪纸最为盛行。一张纸，一把剪刀，折来折去，剪来剪去，就变成了一幅惟妙惟肖的图画。其中，我最喜欢这衣服：一个蒙古族的小姑娘跪在地摊上聚精会神的看书，帽子上的花儿争奇斗艳，竞相开放。不一会儿，窗子上飞来了几只蝴蝶，蝴蝶仿佛被小姑娘的认真所感动了，竟情不自禁的鼓起掌来。窗外一片繁荣的景象：牵牛花张开了小嘴，仿佛在吮吸着甘甜的露水，不止于此，从来低调的水仙也凑起了这热闹，它不停地蝴蝶谈论这世间之事，水仙认蝴蝶为师，因为蝴蝶飞的高，一天可以飞好几个地方，见识广博。

我这样想象着：蒙古姑娘仿佛在目不转睛的看着大自然中的万物，但看见大雁的时候，她不禁伤感起来了。大雁春天飞到北方，还没来得及安家立业，就得冬飞南方，这样的长途跋涉是多么的累呀!房子外是一片绿莹莹的草地，藤蔓延伸到屋顶是多么雅致啊!蝴蝶与花儿仿佛在开一个演唱会：牵牛花不停的流动着迁细的身材，仿佛在歌唱也似在跳舞!蝴蝶邀请蒙古姑娘来跳舞呢!蒙古国姑娘一来，这儿就是她的主场了，那傲人的身姿加上那动人的音乐，所以的万物都忘记了所以的烦劳，与蒙古姑娘一起随音乐摇摆。

剪纸的技艺是中国以及国外的人赞不绝口，这些色彩鲜艳，形象生动，惟妙惟肖，类容丰富的剪纸是精美的艺术瑰宝。这就是中国的剪纸，中国的文化。

当我们看到电影时，中国的食物广泛受到人们的赞扬。最近，有一部很出名的电影叫《舌尖上的中国》，电影很受欢迎，介绍了来自中国不同地方的食物。观众受到了这些美味的食物吸引，他们从来没想到中国的食物可以有这么多的种类。现在电影的第二部分也已经上映，介绍了越来越多的中国传统美食。欣赏了电影以后，我开始学着了解更多中国的美食，我想要尝一尝。我为我们国家的食物感到自豪，当我们和外国朋友讨论中国食物时，我们能感觉到他们对我们食物的喜爱。这些食物是我们文化的一部分，应该要传承下来。

China, once a state of ceremonies.Five thousand years of civilization, let us be proud of it.However, todays China, these four words can play from a state of ceremonies?

[英语作文中国传统礼仪

The hair style of high school students has been a controversial issue for many years. The prescribed plain short hair may look tidy, but the insistence on the hair length below the ear lobe in the case of girl students, which is fixed at one centimeter or at most two, is quite unnecessary. Until recently, the Mayor of Tainan had tried to persuade the Ministry of Education to give the high schoolers the carte blanche to determine their own hair styles. It is difficult for us to say if the idea is right or wrong. So far as I am concerned, problems of the young are not confined to such a small matter as hair style; what matters is the reinforcement of the students＇ moral consciousness, the way they should behave, and the like. The length of their hair or whether they have the right to give it a permanent wave is relatively unimportant. Cleanness and neatness is what really matters. There is hardly anything that stays unchanged all the time. Why doesn＇t the concerned authority reconsider this hair business? Maybe the bickerings that sour the relations between the military instructors and their students will therefore be gone. By the way, to improve one＇s appearance is nothing wrong, is it? We all expect to see a new look of the young. Maybe a change in the concerned authority＇s policy toward the high schoolers＇ hair style will bring this about.

春节是在第一个月的第一天.中国人最喜欢春节.在春节期间,中国人喜欢和自己的家人一起吃饭,一起放焰火在空旷的地方.在那些日子里,我和我姐姐一起放焰火.我们有很多的焰火.它们非常漂亮.它们升上天空并且使一些地方变得很亮.在天空中,它们看起来像是花.我们很高兴也很兴奋.在这之后,我许了一个愿,我希望,在来年,我们能够高高兴兴并且拥有健康的生活,还有每一个人在我们家庭里都可以开开心心.我感到在这个节日里非常高兴.

There are many races in this world, and there are all kinds of countries. For example, a few powerful Americans, Japan, Canada... These are all powerful countries with great strength.

Rise up! People who do not want to be slaves! Our flesh and blood, let us build our new the Great Wall! The Chinese people to the most dangerous time, everyone was forced to issue a final roar. Get up! Get up! We million people united as one man brave the enemys fire! Forward！ Forward！ In!

This is our national anthem, and it was written by our country when it was bullied by the country.

China has a history of 5000 years of civilization, although it has a history of 5000 years, but there are countless disgrace.

In my eyes, China is good and bad, the advantage is that weapons are still advanced. In the past, the western countries have been bullying us, for example, the present Old Summer Palace is a tragic example.

The main thing I have to say is my present China, and now China is also a great power. Other countries do not invade our country and do not harm us. The people of our country will not hurt them. Our country will also help those backward countries.

The Chinese peoples Congress is very selfish. These people often lie to deceive people, they are all for money, for their own interests, and some people are afraid of crime for money, but also to do it.

The quality of the Chinese people is not good, first to say the family, and some parents do not sometimes promise not to do. Again, school, from primary school students will be abusive, to secondary school, some people fight, smoking, drinking, gambling.

But China also has a good side, China has a very high building, the longest river, the longest river...

These are what I know about China.

在这个世界上有好多种族，有各种国家。就比如说几个实力强大的有美国、日本、加拿大……这些都是实力比较强大的大国，实力都很大。

＂起来！不愿做奴隶的人们！把我们的血肉，筑成我们新的长城！中华人民到了最危险的时候，每个人被迫发出最后的吼声。起来！起来！我们万众一心，冒着敌人的炮火前进！前进！前进！进！

这是我们的国歌，是我们国家在被被的国家欺负的时候写下的。

中国有五千年的文明历史，虽然有五千年的历史，但是也有无数的耻辱。

在我眼里中国有好处呀有坏处，好处就是武器还算是先进。在以往的历史中西方国家都在欺负我们，就比如说现在的圆明园就是一个悲惨的例子。

我主要有说的还是我的现在的中国，如今的中国也是一大强国。别的国家不来侵略我们的国家，不来伤害我们。我们国家的人也不会去伤害他们。我们国家也会去帮助那些落后的国家。

中国人大部方都是很自私的，这些人经常说谎来骗人，他们都是为了钱，为了自己的利益，还一些人为了钱不怕犯罪，也要去做。

中国人的素质要不好，先说家庭，又一些家长不有时答应的事不做到。再说学校，从小学开始小学生就会骂人，到中学了有的人就打架、吸烟、喝酒、赌钱了。

不过中国也有好的一面，中国有很高的建筑，有最长的河、最长的江……

这些就是我对中国的了解。

National Day is our countrys mothers birthday. On this day, we all Chinese people are happy. On this day, we should live in harmony with the people of our country in order to repay the kindness we have in our country.

On this day, the whole nation has a holiday. Although some people are too busy to work for the motherlands mother to celebrate, but I still believe that they are in different places, in their hearts, is still a deep love of the motherland. They will also be in the hearts of the hearts of the love of the motherland.

A lot of people are wondering: Why study hard? I can definitely tell them that the students have to study hard to repay our country. Mother of the motherland for our selfless dedication, we should not return her?

National Day, people will hold a lot of parties. Most of the party is the great motherland, the mother of the title, which is also the contribution of the people who write the arts to china!

Although there is no mid autumn festival. Spring Festival is so popular, but it also said we are all the children of the Yellow Emperor patriotism.

Look at the mother of the motherland prosperity, people live and work in peace Chinese!

国庆节是我国一年一度祖国妈妈的生日。在这天，我们全中国人民都兴高采烈。在这天，我们全国人民更应该和睦相处，以报答我们对祖国的养育之恩。

在这天，全国人民都放假了。尽管有些人们因工作的确太忙而不能为祖国妈妈庆祝了，但我依旧相信身存异地的他们，在心中，依旧是深深地爱这祖国妈妈的。他们同样会以心中的满腔热血表示对祖国的敬爱。

很多人们疑惑不解：为什么要好好学习呢?我可以肯定地告诉他们，学生们好好学习是要报答我们的祖国。祖国妈妈为我们无私奉献，难道我们不应该回报她吗?

国庆节这天，人们会举办许多晚会。晚会大多是以伟大的祖国妈妈为题的，这也是那写艺人们对祖国所做的贡献啊!

国庆节虽然没有中秋节。春节那么热闹，但它更表示的是我们炎黄子孙的爱国之心。

The Chinese manners is differend from other countries .In China, people first meet to shake hands.When people eat,Besides soup, table all food use chopsticks.Certain foods can move chopsticks eyes.And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.

中国的礼仪是不同于来自其他国家的。在中国,人们第一次见面握手。当人们吃,除了汤之外,表所有食品使用筷子。某些食物可以动筷子的眼睛。有时中国主人用筷子把食物在你的碗或盘子。这是礼貌的标志。适当的事是吃不管它是什么,说有多美味。如果你觉得不舒服,你可以只说一个礼貌的谢谢,让那里的食物。

不要用筷子敲打饭碗。乞丐行乞时常敲打饭碗,所以,这是不礼貌的。同样,当食物来restarant太慢,人们会利用他们的碗。如果你在某人的家里,它就像侮辱厨师。

My eye is a China invincible wolf, is a never understood the fear of a lion. It has a long cultural history of 5000 years, has long stretches of the Yangtze River, the Great Wall, Pentium majestic majestic Terracotta Army......

66 years ago, our war of resistance against Japan ended, and in the near future there was war in Korea, and we went to help again. In the history of our China was a bully, but we again stand firm and inflexible. In the destruction of the Old Summer Palace in the British and French troops robbed us of countless treasures, also killed a maid, the eunuch. We sell it to us at the price of tens of millions of dollars at the auction. As the old China corruption we signed numerous Treaties: "Nanjing treaty", "Treaty of aigun", "Sino Russian Treaty of Beijing", "Sino Russian Treaty of Tianjin", "Beijing treaty", "Treaty of Tianjin" in china...... These unequal treaties made us suffer, lost billions of silver, millions of gold, and cut Hongkong, Heilongjiang, and the Xingan ridge.

It was good that China had a Mao Zedong, leading the army to drive the aggressors out of China.

A history book was opened, and a five thousand years old male lion was finally revived in the war, and he killed the enemy with the hatred and anger of the whole Chinese people. This is China in my eyes.

我眼中的中国是一只战无不胜的狼，是一只永远也不懂惧怕的雄狮。它有着五千年的悠久文化历史，有绵延不断的万里长城，有奔腾的长江、雄伟雄壮的兵马俑……

在66年前，我们的抗日战争才结束的，在不久后朝鲜出现了战争，我们又去帮忙。在历史的长河里我们中国被一次次的欺凌，但我们又一次次坚强不屈地挺了过来。在圆明园的毁灭中英法联军抢夺了我们无数的国宝，还杀死了个宫女、太监。还在拍卖会上以上千万元的价钱卖给我们。由于旧中国腐败我们签订了无数的条约有：《南京条约》、《瑷珲条约》、《中俄北京条约》、《中俄天津条约》、《北京条约》、《中美天津条约》……这些不平等条约让我们吃尽了苦头，赔损上几十亿的白银，几百万的黄金，割让香港岛、黑龙江、外兴安岭等。

还好中国出了个毛泽东，领导军队将侵略者赶出了中国。

翻开了历史书，沉睡了五千年的雄狮在战火中终于复苏了，他带着全中国人民的仇恨和愤怒杀向敌人。这就是我眼中的中国。

全会强调，要实现“十三五”时期发展目标，必须牢固树立并切实贯彻创新、协调、绿色、开放、共享的发展理念。这是关系我国发展全局的一场深刻变革。公方彬指出，贯彻这“五大”发展理念，即创新、协调、绿色、开放、共享，有助于进一步推动中国未来发展模式的突破和转型创新。“当年，中国在发展过程中的基础设施建设已经较为完备，未来如何突破发展瓶颈，推动在新常态下进一步发展，主要就是靠‘创新’。”公方彬指出，这种突破包括了主客观的突破，也就是创新。不仅是发展方式、方法的创新，更重要的是思想的创新。所以，全会提出，坚持创新发展，必须把创新摆在国家发展全局的核心位置，不断推进理论创新、制度创新、科技创新、文化创新等各方面创新，让创新贯穿党和国家一切工作，让创新在全社会蔚然成风。

Development and the Environment

It is undeniable that the worsening environment has become the biggest concern of the present-day world. Land resources are dwindling because of water loss and soil erosion. Waste gases poison the air we breathe. The rivers and lakes are polluted by waste dumped in them from factories. It is probably no exaggeration to say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind itself.

Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the price we have to pay for economic development. But I do not think that this argument is valid. After all, what is the point of economic growth if people＇s lives are adversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?

There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can be achieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment. The key to achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem. Both governments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.

环境与发展

不可否认的是环境恶化已成为当今世界上人们最担心的事了。因为水资源的浪费和土壤被侵蚀，土地资源逐渐缩小。我们呼吸着有毒的空气，河流和湖泊也被附近的工厂里排放出来的废弃物严重污染了。不夸大其词地说，环境质量的恶化很可能威胁人类的生存。

有些人说环境问题是我们为经济发展所付出的代价。对此，我不敢苟同。如果人类的生活被日益恶化的环境污染所影响的话，那么，经济发展的意义何在?

足够的证据表明：经济发展与环境保护的平衡可以实现可持续发展。关键是使人们意识到问题的严重性。政府和普通市民两方都应该携手使地球成为更适合人类居住的地方，这不仅是为我们自己，也是为我们的后代。

Chinese New Year

Chinese new year is a chinese traditional festival. We also call it the spring festival. It is on lunar january 1st.

On new year’s eve, all the people sit around the desk and have a big family dinner. There are some vegetables, some fish, some meat, some fruits and some drink like juice, coke, pepsi and some nice wine. Overall, this is a good and delicious dinner. After dinner, we always watch tv new year progammes. We have a wonderful evening on new year’s eve.

On the first day of the spring festival, most of people get up early and say “happy new year” to each other. for breakfast, people often eat dumplings and baozi. After breakfast, people often make many delicious foods, and children often play cards, computer games and fireworks. On the second and third day, we visit friends and relatives.

Everyone is busy on chinese new year, and everyone is happy, too.

In my early years, I did not see the value of education.

When I was going on thirteen, I started to run my own shop. From then on, I worked hard to become a successful businessman.

One day I realized the importance of the English language in the business world and started taking night classes.

I was able to communicate well with foreign customers after two years of English study. But I started to feel that, in the long run, having a limited knowledge of English was not enough to make my business successful. I knew that only a well- rounded education could guarantee my success in the future.

When I was eighteen, I had to make a decision to continue doing business or go back to school. There was one obstacle keeping me from getting an advanced education. I had only completed elementary school up to that point. I then went back to senior high school after four months of tutoring in different subjects. Being at school for the first time after so many years was somewhat embarrassing because my classmates were at least two or three years younger than I. I concluded that my age did not matter. The important thing was getting into college.

I took the College Entrance Exams. Although my math exam result was only one point below the required score. I never gave up hope. The following year, I took it again and received the highest score in my city. Achieving such an amazing result gave me encouragement and courage necessary to continue my education to the next step.

I am now in my second year of college and know that it is never too late to learn. My passion for studying and improving myself will never come to a halt as long as I continue to live.

“Live and Learn.” is the motto I have adopted. I believe with an education I will succeed. So, if you are wondering whether education is important, don’t hesitate a moment to step up and seize the opportunity.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.

Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King. But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.

However, we meed dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectives and stick to it. Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future. Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will make it.

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
