震撼人心的英文演讲汇总20篇

请将下面这段话翻译成英文：

诚实是指真诚正直、言行一致。守信是指遵守承诺、不虚伪、不欺骗。孔子教导弟子要诚实。在学习上，知之为知之，不知为不知。孔子认为这才是对待学习的正确态度。古时候，中国商铺的大门上写着“货真价实，童叟无欺”。这表明从古时候起，中国就已推行公平交易、以诚待客、不欺骗、不造假的道德标准。现代中国将诚实守信的美德加以发扬光大。诚实守信就是工作学习时专心负责；对朋友坦诚、言出必行。

参考译文：

Honesty is to be sincere and upright,and match ones words with his/her action.Being trustworthy is to keep ones word and not to be false and deceitful.Confucius taught his disciples to be honest.In study,if you know a thing,say you know it;if you dont,say you dont.He thought it was the correct attitude towards study.In ancient times,the doors of Chinese shops had on it an inscription“genuine goods at a fair price for all customers.”This shows that since old times China has advocated the ethics of fair trade,honesty towards customers,no deception and no falsification.In modern China,the virtue of being honest and trustworthy has been carried forward.It is to be single-minded and responsible at work and in learning,and it is to be honest to friends and one should practice what he/she says.

词句点拨

1.言行一致:即“言论和行动相统一”，故译为match ones words with his/her action。

2.知之为知之，不知为不知:可译为if you know a thing,say you know it;if you dont,say you dont。

3.货真价实，童叟无欺:可译为非谓语短语形式genuine goods at a fair price for all customers,显得简洁。

4.公平交易:可译为fair trade。

[六级英文作文:诚实守信是美德

Film Review of Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is a famous classic written by Jane Austen. I was attracted by the characters and plots of the film adapted from the novel.

Elizabeth is the heroine of the story. When she meets Darcy, a handsome, rich but arrogant man, on the party for the first time, she is dissatisfied with the proud manner of Darcy. Darcy looks down on those who are in a lower social class,

including Elizabeth. However, after getting to know the courage, independence and confidence of Elizabeth, he almost falls in love with her. But Elizabeth believes the lies of Wickham which causes her great prejudice to Darcy. She rejects Darcy’s propose marriage to protect her self-respect. Finally, Darcy goes away because he couldn’t tolerate Elizabeth’s sisters’ vulgar manners. He writes a long letter to explain his thoughts and love to Elizabeth. After reading it, Elizabeth feels guilty about

misjudging Darcy and regrets turning him down. As time goes away, Darcy gradually improves his pride and keeps helping Elizabeth’s family out from troubles. At last, Elizabeth removes the prejudice to Darcy and accepts his propose marriage.

From the film I learn that we can’t judge a man immediately by the first impression. If we are controlled by our subjective senses, it will easy cause prejudice and

misunderstanding and probably influent the developments of many events. To avoid this situation, we need more communication to understand others deeply by ourselves.

Im 31 years old after 20 years. Its a giant star. Red star. Movie star everyone knows.

I became a star because of his alma mater, a good teacher, so I can still sit lying from the plane to Urumqi, the car came to the school two sit line in Jimsar county.

Smile and say, "you are all stars!" I also saw your film, is it good! " I smiled and said: "you look so spirit or go with head high and chest out." She laughed and asked, "how do you become a star?" I started talking to her.

When I was 18 years old, I went to the Art College of Beijing, and became a dancer. When I was 22, I graduated. When I was looking for a job, Jay Chou called me and said, "Congratulations, you are seen by the director of the central cinema, so you can go there and have a try." I said, "yes, it will be in 19 minutes." After that, I drove to the cinema. The director said, "Ill give you a few pieces of music quickly. It will change all the time and try your ability." I said, "OK." After five of my jumps, the director said, "you have been chosen!" I jumped up happily!

In this way, after 3 tests became a star, and went to New Yorks hollyhouse...

Teacher Zhang said, "there is an interest!" Do it well, its all right to win the Oscar prize! " I said: "thank you teacher, I want to go Ganpai movie" Turpan ", I will see you again later!"

This is the one of me 20 years later - the star.

尊敬的各位领导、老师：

大家好！

五千年的沧桑镌刻缔造了一个刚强不屈的中华民族，这个民族团结友爱、和平幸福，这个民族里的人都有一个响亮的名字：中国人！

展开历史的画卷，那一幕幕，让我们刻骨铭心；那一幕幕，让我们痛心疾首；那一幕幕，让我们现代人感到无能为力！我们的祖国，蒙受了多少屈辱：从不平的条约到“九?一八”事变，从南京大屠杀到黄海战役，还有：近代战争、百团大战、台儿庄战役……还有令人发指的“三光”政策，这一切的一切，都向世人昭示着侵略者的滔天罪行！

但中国是侵略者用千方百计也不可能摧残的！主席曾经说过：“我们的民族将再也不是一个被人侮辱的民族了，我们已再站起来了！”这注定，中国人不再是“东亚病夫”，不再是“亡国奴”，不再是案板上的肉——任人宰割！

虎门上空的最后一缕硝烟已经散尽；一张发黄的旧纸条淹没人世；所有死于战争中的英雄和无辜的人们真正安息。在中华人民共和国成立的那一刻，五十四门大炮一齐打响了二十八响，这象征着从中国共产党的成立到中华人民共和国的建立，经过了二十八年艰苦卓绝的斗争！

这一刻，让所有的语言化成泪水，撒落在这片充满了爱的国土上；这一刻，让所有沉积在心中的爱都化成祝福，祝福祖国更加辉煌，更加灿烂的明天！

我的演讲完毕，谢谢大家！

After I read the news, I felt very excited. Lei Feng was a good example all

the young people in our

country learned from in the 1960s and 1970s. But these years people seem to

have given up the ideas of Lei Feng. they dont care about public interests and

never think for others. All these have done GRE at harm to the society.

Now, we students have realized the seriousness of the problem, and have

decided to learn from Lei Feng. We are glad that Lei Feng has come back

again.

Dear Zhang Wei,

I’m glad to know that you are coming to my city during the summer vacation.

However, I’m afraid there’s some bad news. I’m planning to take part in an international conference to be held in another city during the time of your visit.

All the top scientists in my field will show up at the conference. More importantly, I’m lucky enough to have been selected to give a speech on behalf of my research team at the Conference. I really can’t miss it.

I understand that it’ll be your first time to this city and I’m your only friend here. I’ve asked my roommate to meet you at the airport, and you can stay in my room.

He is a very nice person and he will show you around the city. Hope you two will get on well and have a nice holiday!

Yours,

Li Ming

英文请假条格式

请假条(written request for leave)是英语学习者必须掌握的常用应用文之一，它包括请病假(note for sick leave)和请事假(leave of absence)。请假条是用于向老师或上级领导等因身体状况不好或因某事请求准假的场合。

英文请假条写作需注意三点：

1.英文中请假条的写法和汉语请假条相同， 它一般由四部分组成，即时间、称呼、正文和签名。

2.一般而言，可认定请假条是一种简单的书信文体。请假条一般写在纸上，不用信封。其书写格式与书信有很多相似之处，是书信的大大简化。

3.请假条的特点是要求开门见山、内容简短、用词通俗易懂。

【范文例析】

假如你是王立。昨天你和同学们去农场帮助农民们摘苹果，不幸(unluckily)从梯子上摔下来伤了腿，但伤得不重。医生让你在家里好好休息。因此，你向高老师请假两天(ask for leave for two days)。(2002新疆乌鲁木齐中考题)

【参考范文】

Sep.28

Dear Miss Gao,

Im sorry I cant go to school today. I helped the farmers pick apples with my classmates on the farm yesterday. Unluckily, I fell off the ladder and hurt my leg, but I wasnt badly hurt. The doctor asked me to stay in bed and have a good rest. So I ask for leave for two days. Wang Li

【点评】这是一份采用书信格式写的请假条。日期是September 28, 日期写在正文的右上角。由于请假条的内容大多是当天、近几日因病或因事请假，所以不必写上年份；称呼是Dear Miss Gao，称呼写在左上角。请假条因是向上级请示，一般以Dear...,或My dear...,开头。有时可在Dear之后，用上Mr.或Miss等的称呼加上姓氏。不过，有一点仍要提醒大家，各种称呼后面一般都用逗号。正文谈了一件事：I fell off the ladder and hurt my leg, but I wasnt badly hurt. I cant come to school. I ask for leave for two days. 简洁明了，用词口语化。写请假条只要把请假的理由和请假时间说清楚即可。有的请假条为了说明其请假事由是真实的，在正文之后另起一行，写上I enclose a doctors certificate.(我附上了医生证明。)；签名为Wang Li。签名(署名)写在右下角，签名(署名)上面一行可以写上Yours, Your student等字样，有时由于写条的人和收条的人彼此一般很熟悉，所以在称呼和签名上比较随便和简单。特别是在签名部分，有时可简单到只写个姓或只写个名就可以了。

Dear owners

Happy Spring Festival!

In the twinkling of an eye, 2017 has gone quietly, and the steed of 2018

has stepped forward. All the past is memories, and the future is beautiful!

Throughout 2017, yianju foremen club has contacted thousands of owners

with decoration needs, constantly participating in and listening to your

decoration stories. Maybe some of our owners did not reach an agreement in a

short period of time, so they withdrew from your decoration stage. However, this

does not hinder yianju from sending you warm wishes for the new year and

keeping the same new house as you Happy mood; more owners have completed the

decoration tour of your home with the efforts of the eXcellent foremen of yianju

foremen club and the witness of yianju staff, which certainly contains

heartache, anger, joy and eXcitement. Of course, it is inseparable from your

hard work. Do you remember that our company staff asked the boss for leave to

facilitate you to go out and buy building materials? Do you still remember that

while you were out on business, you secretly went to the new house to "inspect"

the workers construction? Do you still remember that you were fined a days

salary because you didnt choose a suitable living room lamp for a whole

afternoon? Do you remember the quality problems and construction delay caused by

the workers disobedience and in accordance with his so-called "eXperience"? How

angry and mad you are! Ha ha, its all over. It doesnt matter. Whats important

is that your new residence has become better and better in various coordination

and communication, and has become the same as you imagine. All kinds of

happiness and unhappiness in the past 2-3 months have become memories, an

irreplaceable memory. In the future life, in which details, you will more or

less think of these eXperiences Will smile gently.

With your strong support, yianju foreman club has gradually completed the

transformation from ordinary decoration company to foreman club mode, adapting

to the home decoration mode of low gross profit and high output. While

maintaining good construction quality, it really gives the profit to the owner

and the foreman.

In this year, we also encountered the refusal to pay labor fees by

unscrupulous customers, many customers were "unconditionally" deleted in the

public comments, and malicious competition from peers... But fortunately, we

still have your support, so we have not stopped moving forward, which is better

than the special inspection mechanism of other companies, the proXimity

principle of convenient site management, and the home insurance given to

customers ... all this will only make us go better and farther! Because,

everything has you!

In the new year of 2018, the development principle of easygoing is still to

make profits, so as to benefit the decoration owners and the construction

foreman; to carry out practical decoration, it is really developing!

On the eve of Chinese traditional New Years Eve and Spring Festival, all

the staff and foremen of yianju foremens Club wish you and your family a happy

New Year! Happy family! Everything goes well!

敬爱的老师、同学们：

大家好！今天，我演讲的题目是：《文明礼仪》。礼仪是无处不在的，它可以表现出一个人的道德修养，也可以增进人与人之间的友谊。大家都知道，我们中国是人类历史上四大文明古国之一，是一个历史悠久的礼仪之邦。中华民族五千年的发展历程，代代传承了许许多多的传统和美德。从孔融让梨到张良拜师，从周总理为中华之崛起而读书到做好事不留名的雷锋叔叔，他们都是中华民族传统美德的具体体现，他们为我们树立了榜样，是我们每一位小学生应该学习的楷模！

作为一名新世纪的小学生，作为祖国的花朵、世界的未来，我们必须做一名文明的小学生！但是，如何才能做一名文明的小学生呢？我们首先要着装得体，符合学生身份，体现出新世纪学生篷勃向上的风采，因为仪表、仪容、仪态可以让人一看便知道你的修养；遇到老师、同学，主动问好；上下楼梯，人多拥挤，注意谦让；讲究卫生，不乱扔果皮，见到纸屑随时捡起；爱护公物，不乱写乱划；在与同学的交往中，能和睦相处，共同学习。做到得理让人，失理道歉，相互尊重，相互信任；家里来了客人，热情、大方、有礼貌地招待；在外面，遵守交通法规，不乱扔果皮纸屑，保护环境卫生；尊老爱幼，帮助别人，做到处处为别人着想。

让我们一起努力，做一名穿戴整齐、懂礼貌、不乱扔垃圾的小学生。我的演讲结束了，谢谢大家。

New Year starts with the New Moon on the first day of the new year and ends on the full moon 15 days later. The 15th day of the new year is called the Lantern Festival, which is celebrated at night with lantern displays and children carrying lanterns in a parade.

The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements. The lunar cycle is about 29.5 days. In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese an extra month once every few years. This is the same as adding an extra day on leap year. This is why, according to the solar calendar, the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year.

New Years Eve and New Years Day are celebrated as a family affair, a time of reunion and thanksgiving. The celebration was traditionally highlighted with a religious ceremony given in honor of Heaven and Earth, the gods of the household and the family ancestors.

The sacrifice to the ancestors, the most vital of all the rituals, united the living members with those who had passed away. Departed relatives are remembered with great respect because they were responsible for laying the foundations for the fortune and glory of the family.

The presence of the ancestors is acknowledged on New Years Eve with a dinner arranged for them at the family banquet table. The spirits of the ancestors, together with the living, celebrate the onset of the New Year as one great community. The communal feast called "surrounding the stove". It symbolizes family unity and honors the past and present generations

How do you define loneliness? I often walk alone, should I call myself a

lonely girl?

Nowadays, it’s a common phenomenon that college students fall in love with

others because they cannot stand loneliness. In my point of view, I believe that

people with a strong will to finish something won’t feel lonely. Many people

feel lonely when they are boring, nothing to do. That is to say, if we have many

things to do, work hard for our dreams, live a meaningful life, we won’t feel

lonely. Our dreams will accompany with us.

In my opinion, I think people who don’t know what they want are lonely,

because they have no destinations in their life. They are lonely in soul. So I

don’t consider I am a lonely person, because I have dreams, I have best friends

on my road to succeed. To a conclusion, there is no doubt that lonely in soul is

real lonely.

Dear Mr. Seaton，

Thank you very much for taking me with you on that splendid outing to

London. It was the first time that I had seen the Tower or any of the other

famous sights. If Id gone alone, I couldnt have seen nearly as much, because I

wouldnt have known my way about.

The weather was splendid on that day, which I thought was rare. I still

remember some people told me that in Britain there was weather and no climate.

During the same day, it might snow in the morning, rain at noon, shine in the

afternoon and be windy before the night falls. So I think I was lucky.

I think the river trip was the best thing of all. London really came alive

for me as we saw it from the Thames during that wonderful journey down to

Greenwich. It was all tremendously exciting - a day that I shall never

forget.

Thank you for giving me such a great birthday treat.

Yours sincerely,

Linda Chen

With the development of the Internet, many people are used to shopping

online. It has become a fashion in our daily life. Some of us students also join

the group.

Shopping online has many advantages. Just by a click of the mouse, you can

buy what youre interested in without going outdoors. You can avoid getting

tired and being trapped in the crowded people and cars and save time. When

shopping online, you can choose from more varieties of goods, whose prices are

generally lower.

Every coin has two sides. Its disadvantages are obvious, too. On the one

hand, its very easy for you to buy goods different from the pictures you see on

the Internet. On the other hand, shopping online may cause people to buy goods

that are not badly needed. Thats a waste of money.

All in all, I love shopping online.

着名作家梁实秋擅长演讲，他的演讲独具风采，给人们留下了深刻的印象。他在师大任教期间，当时的校长刘真，常请名人到校演讲。有一次，主讲人因故迟到，在座的师生都等得很不耐烦。于是，刘真便请在座的梁实秋上台给同学们讲几句话。梁实秋本不愿充当这类角色，但校长有令，只好以一副无奈的表情，慢吞吞地说：“过去演京戏，往往在正戏上演之前，找一个二三流的角色，上台来跳跳加官，以便让后台的主角有充分的时间准备。我现在就是奉命出来跳加官的。”话不寻常，引起全场哄堂大笑，驱散了师生们的不快。

分析：幽默，流于俗套就成了无厘头;而恰到好处的幽默，则是智慧的闪光，有着化腐朽为神奇的力量。
