写一篇演讲稿作文（汇编20篇）

My dear friends

Do you know what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the world ?Money?You may lose everything you have if you dont use money carefull enough.Youth?In ones long life youth is like a flash in the pan and no one in the world has the secret to keep his youth forever.Beautiful look?Many people pray that they can get hold of beauty,but it disappears far more quickly than they can imagine.And when they are in real trouble beauty itself feels helpless.A good job?As you grow older and your brain and hands cant work as fast as before.It will become other peoples wealth.

Then what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the world?

When you are far away from your family and feel especially lonely,Who will you think of?When you stand on the crossoad in your life and dont know which way to choose,who will you think of?When you encounter greater difficulties than ever and need others encouragement,who will you think of?When you decide to make the greatest decision in your favorite course,who shed cheerful tears when see you get achievements?Whose wholehearted blessing will be always with you no matter how far you will go?

Yes,its mother who you will always think of and its mothers love that willbe always be with you.

I once heard a moving story about a mother.Two childrens were drawn into the flood and the situations was very dangerous.Their mother jumped into the water without hesitation.But the mother couldnt swim at all.Jumping into the water means she might lose her life.But at that time she had no time to think about herself.She just wanted to try all means to save her children.Maybe her courage touched the God.The miracle happened.She finally succeeded in saving her both children.And she,of course,felt extremely exhausted.

My friends,mothers love is the greatest love.Mothers love is the safest love.No matter you are happy or depressed ,rich or poor ,mothers love will always stay with you.

总有一缕飘逸的清香，无时无刻不洋溢在我的生活中，是它，让我学会了感受，是它，教我学会了聆听，是它，让我读懂了生命，它，就是那缕幽幽飘逸于我心中的书香。

漫步诗海，感受四季之美，走进自然，我会和白居易一起感受“乱花渐欲迷人眼，浅草才能没马蹄”的春之活力，和杨万里一起玩赏“接天莲叶无情碧，映日荷花别样红”的夏之绚烂，和刘禹锡一起品味“晴空一鹤排云上，便引诗情到碧霄”的秋之昂扬，和岑参一起饱览“忽如一夜春风来，千树万树梨花开”的冬之壮美……书，如同一幅幅风景画，向我们展示了大自然的无穷魅力，使我们赏心悦目。

漫步书海，享受书中之情，可以领略李白“天生我材必有用，千金散去还复来”的豪迈气概，去体会那“但愿人长久，千里共婵娟”的美好祝愿，去感受那“鹰击长空，鱼翔浅底”的凌云气概，去揣摩“帘卷西风，人比黄花瘦”的那抹心伤哀愁……书，就如同一杯醇香甘甜的美酒，令人荡气回肠，情意绵绵。

漫步书海，照亮心房，为范仲淹“先天下之忧而忧，后天下之乐而乐”心系国家的远大抱负而折服，为苏东坡“老夫聊发少年狂，左牵黄，右擎苍，锦帽貂裘，千骑卷平岗”的豪放张扬的慨叹，读“出师未捷生先死，长使英雄泪满襟”，我仿佛看到诸葛亮六出祁山，为蜀汉鞠躬尽瘁，死而后已的一生……书如一团跳跃的火焰，照亮我的心灵。

书，如一泓清泉，荡涤心灵的尘埃，以他那独有的魅力启发着我，熏陶着我，感悟着我，载我扬帆起航，带我搏击风浪，领我经历风雨，指引我在书的殿堂中成长。星空中文网：www.xkzw.com

读书，读的是另一个人生，佛曰：“一花一世界，一叶一菩提”多读一本书，无异于多活一个人生，让我们在充盈着书香的天空中翱翔吧!

尊敬的各位领导，同事们：

大家好!

我叫xxx，在xx市xx办管辖的xx游园工作，负责游园及沿河周边的清洁卫生。

今天能有机会站在这里，作为先进个人代表发言，我很荣幸，也很高兴。荣幸的是，我分内应该做的小事，得到了领导的肯定和鼓励。高兴的是，我能借此机会来表达我满心的谢意。首先感谢各位领导对我的关怀和信任，再就是感谢我同组的姐妹们对我一贯的支持和帮助。谢谢你们!

说句心里话，这个荣誉不算大，但是我很珍惜。为什么呢?一，我深知，这不单单是我个人的荣誉，而是大家的荣誉，是我们全体xx办河管员的荣誉，是各级领导对我们全体员工的真切关爱，和对我们付出的劳动给予的肯定和褒奖。二来，作为4050人员的我，这份工作来之不易，尽管风吹日晒，吃苦受累，活儿也脏，也琐碎，但我知足。我知道，对于我这样的下岗女工，离开工厂便没有一技之长，能找到一份工作，谈何容易!我珍视这份工作，我不能辜负了政府领导对我们下岗工人的关怀和期望。别的也许我做不好，但是收拾垃圾，捡捡塑料袋，我还是会的。只要肯吃苦，就没有干不了的活儿。

想是这样想，真干起来，却是另一回事。大家都知道，xx游园，位于城乡结合部，西高村，东高村，牛村，这些城市边缘的居民，卫生意识，文明习惯，都还处于养成的阶段，随手丢垃圾是常态。他们觉得既然有人清扫，何必不扔呢?于是，塑料袋满天飞，果皮纸盒草丛里更是随处可见。加之，游园紧邻一个大垃圾场，这是牛村的生活垃圾，到了夏天，蚊蝇碰头，冬天，纸屑随风飞扬。还有河北的二道坡，高村的生活垃圾在这里倾倒。怎么办?面对乱糟糟的一团，能袖手旁观，撒手不管么?不能。我们在工厂三班倒的日子都顶过来了，眼前的脏活算啥，干!

我们小组是四个女人，都说三个女人一台戏，四个女人更是热闹。工人出身的我们，有的是耐力、毅力和劳力。我们不怕苦，不怕累，不怕脏。力气是自己身上长出来的，去了还会来，脏，洗个澡就完了。于是，我们织女穿梭似的低头弯腰，弯腰低头，不停地来回忙碌。盛夏的午后，有人问：“你们不热么?凉阴儿歇歇吧。”我们笑着说，流汗减肥啊!冬天，我们捂着一层层的厚棉衣棉裤来上班，干起活来，臃肿不便，再一层层脱下。有人问：“你们不冷啊?”“还热呢。”迎着刺骨的寒风，我们咧嘴傻笑。

就这样，顶酷暑，冒严寒，任四季风雨吹打。我们终于迎来了收获的喜悦。游园净了，游人多了。老人小孩喜笑颜开。每当听到游客由衷赞叹这里真干净，听见领导夸奖我们干得不赖时，我们的心就很甜很甜。

河管员，工作琐碎，但人心凝聚。我深知“一花独放不是春，百花齐放春满园。”我个人的力量是微不足道的，在今后的日子里，我还会与其他姐妹们齐心协力，和谐共处，付出更多的汗水和劳动，让我们的xx游园焕发出新的光彩。

再次感谢大家。谢谢!

端午节，门插艾，香满堂，吃粽子，洒白酒，龙舟下水喜洋洋。这些，都是曾经端午节上最热闹的活动，然而，随着时代的变迁，社会节奏的加快，外来文化的大举入侵，中国人不再眷顾流传几千年的中国传统文化，而是将目光转向了“圣诞节”“愚人节”这样的节日，面对这种现状，我们不得不感到悲哀，发出“端午节是否不再姓“中”这样的疑问。

当我们还沉浸在西洋节日的欢声笑语中时，据可靠消息说“亚洲某国准备向联合国教科文组织申报端午节为本国的文化遗产，目前已将其列入国家遗产名录。

听到这种消息，中国人除了惊讶只有尴尬，这不仅仅是一个传统节日的得失，不仅仅是少了几项庆祝活动，更重要的是，这是中国的传统节日，文化内涵丰富，留存着华夏民族独特的文化记忆，每过一次传统节日，就是中华民族凝聚力和向心力的一次加强和洗礼，如今，这个拥有XX多年历史的传统佳节眼瞅着即将成为他国的国家遗产，我们将有多么尴尬?

无庸讳言，这些年来，我国的传统节日，似乎总离不开吃。端午节吃粽子，清明节吃青团，元宵节吃汤圆，中秋节吃月饼，春节更不在话下——大鱼大肉让你吃到不想吃。农耕社会对饥饿的恐惧，形成了我国传统节日最鲜明的风俗——吃。如今，满足了温饱需求的人们正在奔向全面小康，什么时候都有的吃，想吃多少都可以，传统节日的吸引力一下子失去了特有的魅力。

在继承传统文化方面，我们守着“聚宝盆”却不善于保护和挖掘。比如文字，当代青年有几个熟识并能运用繁体字?连文字都不认识又如何了解古代文化?再比如造纸，我国造纸工业化生产的结果是传统手工业的流失，许多高质量的宣纸要到日本或韩国才能买到，他们不但继承了我们的传统造纸技术，还有新的发展。就拿端午节来说，它已融入各个临近国家的文化中，形成了独特的生命力——在新加坡，每年端午节举行的国际龙舟邀请赛闻名于世;在韩国，端午节被称为车轮节，是插秧结束后祈求丰年的日子。在很长一段时间里，中国人着眼于创新，却往往容易忽视对传统的坚持，文化的缺失必然导致精神断层甚至扭曲，而精神文明的再次断层又将带来什么?有句话说的好：只有民族的才是世界的。在面临全球经济一体化的今天，该如何保护与继承我们的传统文化，显然已是一个不容回避的问题。而现时的洋节兴盛与传统节日衰弱间的反差，更凸显了这个问题的迫切性

其实，不光是传统节日，整个中国民族民间文化的生存环境如今都面临着经济全球化和现代化的挑战。一些西方发达国家凭借强大的综合国力，先进的科技手段和发达的文化传播手段，积极传播西方的价值观念和生活方式，对包括中国在内的发展中国家的民族民间传统文化生态造成了一定的冲击。

中国的传统节日五彩缤纷，文化内涵丰厚，留存着人类独特的文化记忆，对祖先创造的历史文化遗存，必须怀有敬畏之心，必须高度重视。我们是中华民族的栋梁之才，中华文明需要我们共同传承。同学们，不要冷落了中国自己的传统节日，让华夏文明在中国彻彻底底的红火起来吧!

“彩旗夹岸照蛟室，

罗袜凌波呈水嬉，

曲终人散空愁暮，

招屈亭前水车注。”

刘禹锡这首《竞渡曲》记叙的是沅江一次赛龙舟的活动。

：

The International Childrens Day (ICD) is celebrated in numerous countries, usually (but not always) on June 1 each year.

The ICD had its origin in the World Conference for the Wellbeing of Children in Geneva, Switzerland in 1925. It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the ICD: one theory has it that the Chinese consul-general in San Francisco (USA) gathered a number of Chinese orphans to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in 1925, which happened to be on June 1 that year, and also coincided with the conference in Geneva.

June 1 has since been observed as the ICD by numerous countries, especially by Communist countries; in the Western world the ICD is usually celebrated on other days of the year (if at all)， and there is often little public awareness about these celebrations. (See the section on Germany below for further discussions.) Consequently there is sometimes a misperception that June 1 as the ICD was a Communist invention. Nonetheless, in recent years even some groups within the United States started observing the ICD on June 1.

尊敬的各位老师和各位同学们，大家下午好：

我是来自七10班的郑静仪。今天我演讲的主题是《为梦想远航》。

海阔凭鱼跃，天高任鸟飞。每个人心中都怀揣着属于自己的梦想。同学，你有过梦想吗？

小时候我有一个梦想，我希望自己可以有许多钱。大人问：“有了钱你要做什么？”我天真地回答道：“我要买很多糖果。”的确，小时候的我们天真无邪，幸福与快乐是一曲不变的乐章；再稍微大一点，我上小学了，我希望能够成为一名班长，帮助老师管理班级；中学，梦想又变了，我不再是那个整天想着吃糖果或当班长的那个幼稚的孩子，现在的我希望可以成为一名尖子生。回到家可以受到家长的表扬，在学校可以得到老师的肯定；在同学之间有鹤立鸡群的表现。但是，渐渐地，我发现实现这个梦想不能只耍孩子气。之后，我学会了奋斗。

梦想不分大小，但它能给我们带来希望，为我们指引前进的方向。在我青春的视线内，我似乎看到了李娜的身影。当她打败斯齐亚沃尼后，幸福的倒在红土场上……法网的冠军奖杯上刻下了这样一个崭新的名字——李娜。李娜之所以能够取得令人骄傲的成绩，是因为她不懈的坚持与奋斗……在她实现梦想的过程中也曾受过伤，放声大哭过。但她仍旧坚持着自己的梦想，最终实现了它。

另一位杰出的人物是意大利的达-芬奇。他也梦想自己的未来，但他更多的是想现在该怎么做。为了练好基本功，他曾不停地画那外形单调、乏味的鸡蛋。他常说：“勤劳一日，可得一夜眠；勤劳一生，可得幸福长眠。”他憧憬一生的幸福，但却要求自己勤奋的战斗一生。行动，切实的行动，是通向梦想之门的轨道；实现梦想，是一场艰辛的无休止的马拉松赛。只有坚持才会到达顶峰。

所以，无论岁月在我们脸上增添了多少皱纹，无论世事在我们胸口划过多少道伤痕。只要我们还有呼吸的权力，就拥有重塑梦想的激情；只要我们还有生存的氧气，就拥有缔造激情的勇气。

同学们：让我们一起为梦想而拼搏吧。

我的演讲结束了，谢谢大家。

小时候妈妈就教育我：书，像一双千里眼，让我们了解世界;书，又像一个时间隧道，带我们回想远古，想象未来;书，更像慈祥的知识老人，把深奥的知识传授给我们。每一本好书都像一位启蒙老 师，指引着我们前进的方向。

虽然这些大道理我不是很懂，但是妈妈每天陪我读书，使我养成了喜欢读书的习惯，在妈妈的帮助下，我读了很多书，这些书为我的成长提供了很多很多宝贵的知识 和经验，让我在人生的航行中奋勇前进。《白雪公主和七个小矮人》把我带到了那座小木屋里，同时，也告诫我：不能以外貌来判断人的美和丑;《头悬梁锥刺股》 中的主人公苏秦激起了我勤学的火花，将来报效祖国;《卖火柴的小女孩》让我看到了她那悲惨的童年生活，使我更加珍惜现在的幸福生活;一套《中华上下五千年》丛书展示了一部熠熠生辉的中国历史，让我看到了我们伟大祖国五千年的悠久历史，使我更加热爱我们的祖国了《冒险小王子》让我学会了勇敢和智慧。《爱的教育》让我懂得了人类是多么需要互相关心，互相理解，互相帮助……跟书交朋友，我懂得了许多科学文化知识;博览群书，祖国大好河山让我尽收眼底，古今中外名人轶事让我肃然起敬。现在，我已经成长为一名五年级的小学生了，读书看报已经成为我生活的主要内容了。书籍，伴我走过了无数风雨，见证了我成长的脚步。

从读书中，我领悟到：要想读好书，靠的是顽强的毅力、执着的热情，正如杜甫所说的：“读书破万卷，下笔如有神。”“冰冻三尺，非一日之寒，滴水穿石，非一日之功。” 孔子手不释卷，才有“韦编三绝”的故事，中华才有这位大名鼎鼎的教育家和思想家。

读 书使我快乐，读书伴我成长。人生是一个漫长的过程，随着生命的延续而不断延伸，人生没有完结，学习就不该停止，我们的生命依靠学习而不断地自我完善、自我 发展。我是幸福的，因为有好书伴我成长。所有这些还得感谢爸爸妈妈，是爸爸妈妈把我带到了书的海洋，走进了知识的殿堂。

老师、同学们：

大家早上好!

农历五月初五，中国的传统节日——端午节。人们会通过赛龙舟、包粽子、喝雄黄酒等形式来来纪念一颗不朽的灵魂——屈原。

据《史记》“屈原贾生列传”记载，屈原，是春秋时期楚怀王的大臣。他倡导举贤授能，富国强兵，力主联齐抗秦，遭到贵族子兰等人的强烈反对，屈原遭馋去职，被赶出都城，流放到沅、湘流域。在流放中，他写下了忧国忧民的《离骚》、《天问》、《九歌》等不朽诗篇，独具风貌，影响深远。公元前278年，秦军攻破楚国京都。屈原眼看自己的祖国被侵略，心如刀割，但是始终不忍舍弃自己的祖国，于五月五日，在写下了绝笔作《怀沙》之后，抱石投汨罗江身死，以自己的生命谱写了一曲壮丽的爱国主义乐章。

屈原死后，楚国百姓非常哀痛，纷纷涌到汨罗江边去凭吊屈原。渔夫们划起船只，在江上来回打捞他的身体。有的渔夫拿出饭团、鸡蛋等食物丢进江里，希望鱼龙虾蟹吃饱了，不会去咬屈大夫的身体了。有的拿来一坛雄黄酒倒进江里，希望晕倒蛟龙水兽，以免伤害屈大夫。后来怕饭团为蛟龙所食，人们想出用楝树叶包饭，外缠彩丝，发展成为棕子。

郭沫若评价屈原为“伟大的爱国诗人”。他开浪漫主义诗歌之先河，创立了“与天地兮同寿，与日月兮同光”的楚辞文体;发明了“惟草木之落兮，恐美人之迟暮”的香草美人传统。他奔流肆意的想象，源源不绝的才情，似河流汇聚成海一般，浩瀚无垠。我国文史上最长的抒情诗——《离骚》，就是他集毕生心血所成的作品。

屈原离世已有2300年了，今天我们来纪念他，主要是学习他爱祖国爱人民、坚持真理、宁死不屈的精神和他“可与日月争辉”的人格。屈原作为一个改革家，他的政治理念，他的改革期望，都因当时客观残酷的社会条件而失败了。但作为一个伟大的爱国者、思想家和文学家，他却成功了。“举世皆浊我独清，举世皆醉我独醒”是他的气节，“路漫漫其修远兮，吾将上下而求索”是他的伟岸。他如菊的淡雅，如莲的圣洁，强大的精神力量，为后人颂扬，激励感染了无数中华儿女前行的脚步!

屈原的伟大，不仅是他刻骨铭心的诗句，更是他矢志不移的爱国精神，不与奸佞小人同流合污的高风亮节。五千年中华文明史少不了屈原，灿烂的中国文学史少不了屈原。

屈原的精神是不朽的。不管时光如何变迁，他永远上生活在岁月的长河里，永远铭记在人们的心中!

我爱炸酱面 I love Fried Bean Paste Noodles

There are different kinds of noodles in our country. In Shanxi the most famous noodle is sliced noodles in Guangdong it has dry fried noodles; in Si chuan people love spicy hot noodles very much. Born in Beijing and live in Beijing I love fried bean paste noodles the best.

在我国，有各种各样的面条。在山西，最著名的面食是刀削面;在广东，最著名的是伊面;在四川，人们最爱的则是麻辣面。作为一个土生土长的北京人，我最爱炸酱面。

The fired bean paste noodles is very easy to cook. First of it you should slice the cucumber into pieces cook the soy bean and green bean for about ten minutes then put these material in a bowl. Second stir-frying the paste. Mix the minced meat ginger and green onion and then put them in the pan keep frying the paste until you can smell the aroma. Last put the paste onto the noodles you have prepare and add the cucumber soy bean and green bean to the noodles. The fried bean paste noodles are done. If you have time you can try this I sure you will love it.

炸酱面很容易烹饪。首先，你先把黄瓜切丝，把黄豆和青豆用沸水煮上十分钟，然后把这些材料装进碗里面备用。其次，烹制炸酱。把肉末、洋葱和葱花混合在一起，不停地翻炒，直到你闻到肉香。最后，把肉酱淋在煮好的面条上，再放上黄瓜丝、黄豆和青豆，炸酱面就算做好了。如果你有时间，你一定要试试。我保证你会爱上炸酱面的。

演讲人：孙可菲

巴尔扎克说：“世界上的事情永远不是绝对的，结果因人而异，苦难对于天才是一块垫脚石，对能干的人是一笔财富，对于弱者是一个万丈深渊。”知性女人是善于在失败中吸取经验教训的，因为她们会从中吸取经验教训的，因为她们会从中体会、思考原因：人生中有成功就有失败，失败不意味着自己是一个失败者，只是表明尚未成功;失败不意味着自己没有努力，只是表明付出的努力还不够;失败不意味着自己必须忏悔，只是表明要从教训中吸取经验;失败不意味着自己永远一事无成，只是表明得到了一次有益的经验;失败不意味着自己无法到达成功的彼岸，只是表明还需要一些时间;失败不意味着自己已经被打倒，只是表明敢于微笑面对的人才是最后的赢家。在这样一个微笑着反省的过程，女人们越发变得成熟，越发会获得成功。

因此我们要学会微笑着面对失败，去迎接新一次的挑战。正如拿破伦所说的“避免失败的最好方法，就是决心获得下一次成功”。

虽然，失败是一道难以下咽的苦菜，但是，坚强的女人一定会把它吃下去。当朋友弃你而去，当苦苦追求的梦想屡受挫折，初尝了人间的苦涩。软弱的女人会徘徊、失落，甚至想到死，而坚强的女人是不会放弃的，因为不甘心。轻轻地宽慰自己：失败不过是酸甜苦辣中的一碟小菜。

虽然，失败好似人生的大熔炉，但它既然可以把人烤死，也可以把人锻造得坚强、自信。如果曾经微笑面对过失败，那么在年迈的时候，就可以对自己的子孙后辈说：“其实，失败最害怕的居然是我们浅浅的一个微笑。”

微笑面对失败的女性不会抱怨生活给予她的太多的磨难，不会抱怨生命中有太多的曲折。大海如果失去了巨浪的翻滚，就会失去雄浑;沙漠如果失去了飞沙的狂舞，就会失去壮观;人生如果仅去求得两点一线的一帆风顺，生命也就失去了存在的魅力。

微笑面对失败的女生会把尘封的心胸敞开，让狭隘自私淡去;把自由的心灵放飞，让豁达宽容回归。这样，一个豁然开朗的世界就会在她们眼前打开：蓝天，白云，小桥，流水，鲜花的芳香会在她们的鼻翼萦绕，华丽的彩蝶会在她们身边起舞。

微笑面对失败的女性把每一次的失败都归结为一次尝试，不会因此而自卑;把每一次的失败都想象成一种幸运，也不会因此而自傲。就这样，微笑着，从容的，去面对挫折，去接受幸福，去品味孤独，去沐浴忧伤。

美国的莱特兄弟是飞机的发明者，他们为世界的航天事业做出了杰出的贡献。

是一对很善于思索、又刻苦钻研的兄弟，同时却是一对最不善于交际的难兄难弟。他们最讨厌的就是演讲。在一次盛宴上，酒过三巡，主持人请大莱特发表演说。

"这一定是弄错了吧?"大莱特不好意思地说，"演说是归舍弟负责的。"

主持人转向小莱特。小莱特站起来说："谢谢诸位，家兄刚才已经演讲过了。"

就这样推来推去，人们还是不放过兄弟俩。经各界人士再三邀请，小莱特只说了这样一句话："据我所知，鸟类中会说话的只有鹦鹉，而鹦鹉是飞不高的。"

这只有一句话的演讲，博得了人们长时间的热烈掌声。

English is a useful language all over the world. Why are we began to learn English when we were little children? Beacause it is very important for us to learn it.In the world, if you cannot speak English you will lose half a chance to success.

I began to learn English when I was 8 years old.At that moment,I do not like English.I connot remember all the words which I have learnt.I think it is very difficult for me to learn it well.So I cannot read English loudly and I never answer the questions in the English classes.

Even if my English is very bad, my teacher stll encourages me to learn English hard and he gives me some ways to learn English. He tells me to read passages loudly and listen to the English tapes everyday morning.In order to progress my writing he also asks me to write some articles at times. I like listen to the English songs,he suggests me to sing the English songs.As a result of his ways my English becomes well.

Now, I like English very well and I still use the ways he tells me.I know I must learn English even hard.

The poet said: spring flowers to the door pushed open a. I said: Thanksgiving to the door pushed open a harmony, harmony open the door to the living. If you carefully listen to the voices of flowers, are everywhere harmonious life movement.

Love, the soul like fire ignited the hope of love, the soul like绿茵propped up the sky. Love is a force, is a wealth. We should be in the hearts of young sow the seeds of love. Let us be thankful for, the Institute of Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, build a socialist harmonious society needs. Guangdong lawyer Tian, in order to return the mothers kindness in telling your mother dying when she donated his kidney to restore the mothers life; Xu Yu return to the community of his kindness, decided to leave after graduating from university in the bustling city , broke into the thatched shed to seeking knowledge, a thirst for knowledge sent the children …

诗人说：花朵把春天的门推开了。我说：感恩把和谐的门推开了，和谐把生活的门推开了。只要你用心去听花开的声音，生活到处都是和谐的乐章。

爱，像火种点燃心灵的希望; 爱，像绿茵撑起心灵的天空。爱，是一种力量，是一种财富。我们应该从小在心中撒播爱的种子。让我们心存感激，学会感恩。用一颗感恩的心去面对生活，面对学习，面对挫折，从而体会父母，师长，同学，朋友间无私的亲情，友情，"懂得滴水之恩，当涌泉相报”的真正内涵。

感恩是中华民族的传统美德，是构建社会主义和谐社会的需要。广东律师田世国为了回报母亲的恩情，在老母病危时瞒着她捐出了自己的肾脏，挽回了母亲的生命;徐本禹为了回报社会对他的恩情，毅然在大学毕业后离开繁华城市，走进穷乡僻壤的破草棚，给求知若渴的孩子们送去知识……

感激生育你的人，因为他们使你获得生命;感激抚养你的人，因为他们使你不断成长;感激关怀你的人，因为他们给你温暖;感激鼓励你的人，因为他们给你力量;感激教育你的人，因为他们开化你的蒙昧;感激伤害你的人，因为他们磨练了你的心智;感激绊倒你的人，因为它强化了你的双腿;感激藐视你的人，因为它觉醒了你的自尊;感激遗弃你的人，因为他教会了你该独立;凡事感激，学会感激，感激一切使你成长的人!

同学们，有首歌叫《感谢你》：感谢明月照亮了夜空，感谢朝霞捧出的黎明，感谢春光融化了冰雪，感谢大地哺育了生灵，感谢母亲赐予我生命……感谢收获、感谢和平、感谢这所有的一切一切。

感恩无痕，感恩无限!同学们，学会感恩吧!让我们的生活永远走向关怀，充满真情和爱心!让我们携起来手来，共同努力，构建一个人人向往的社会主义和谐社会!

尊敬的领导、老师，亲爱的姐妹们：

晚上好！在全世界共同庆祝三八妇女节100周年的日子里，我真的有很多话想说，但我不想慷慨激昂地发表议论，也不想柔肠万转地抒发情怀，我想讲一个从我爸爸那儿听来的小故事。

爸爸当年在益阳县四中教书时，晚饭后，喜欢在附近的渠道上散步，渠道两边是整齐的农家小楼房，绿荫绕檐、清洁明朗，一派祥和。但在这中间有一座一间一偏舍小平房像一首美丽的歌曲中夹着的一个极不和谐的音符，它的房前屋后杂草丛生，没有树，肮脏不堪。爸爸很好奇，特意进去看了看，发现有一张床，床上被子是有的，但没有叠，像一个大牛肚子在床上堆着，厨房里锅是有的、碗是有的，但都没有洗。原来，这里住着的是一位26岁的单身汉！

过了两年后的一个春天的日子里，在散步时，爸爸像发现了新大陆一样惊奇地发现那一间一偏舍的小屋变了：屋旁的土里长出了郁郁葱葱的甘蔗苗，土沟收拾得很齐整，房前屋后没有了杂草，新栽的一排排小树正吐着绿叶，台阶砌得整整齐齐，抹上了水泥，房子里粉刷一新，房间里并不奢华，但被子叠得整整齐齐，几样家具摆放整齐有序。原来，这单身汉结婚了！

爸爸很感慨，他说，难怪古人造“安”字时，要用“门”和“女”字组成，“门”是什么？“门”代指一个房子，代指一个家，在家里有女人，就“安”了。这“安”是“安定”、“安稳”、“安全”、“安详”。由此说来，女人的作用不容忽视！基于这一点，女同胞们，我们能不感到骄傲和自豪吗？，

有人说，一个家里的女人如何，这个家就如何，一个国家的女人怎样，这个国家就会怎样。女人勤劳，则家国勤劳；女人自立，则家国自立；女人进步，则家国进步；女人智慧，则家国智慧；女人和谐，则家国和谐；女人有尊严，则家国有尊严。是的，这话一点不假。

清水出芙蓉，天然去雕饰，这天然是一种本真；大雪压青松，青松挺且直，这挺直是一种坚强；云无心而出岫，鸟倦飞而知返，这无心是一种纯静；壁立千仞，无欲则刚，这无欲是一种清廉。真正的好诗，不靠苦吟；真正的好歌，不靠作势；真正的好女人，不靠胭脂，不靠别人。让我们用自己的勤劳、智慧、纯洁、坚韧，撑住美丽的家园，创造和美温馨，演绎五彩缤纷的生活吧！

谢谢大家！

students in this 9.6 million square kilometers of land, which his uncle did not know the name! his name is called - lei feng.

uncle lei feng him helping others, has no profits.on one occasion, due to a stomach ache from lei feng to the ministry of health mission even opened the medicine to come back, see benxi road primary school building under construction, it helped push the car shipped from a brick, a series done for several hours. this is lei feng.

when they replace their vehicles in a business trip, feng found a middle-aged woman carrying a child’s train ticket, and lost money, he used his allowance to the sister-in-law bought a train ticket from jilin go. it is therefore a stay chuan phrase: "lei feng travel thousands of miles one good one to do the train." this is lei feng.

he "stole" a comrade-in-arms of their loved ones for money for the disaster area to send the people on all deposits over the past few years. some say he is a "fool," said feng him happy revolution "fool." this is lei feng.

lei feng selfless, willing to sacrifice things really are too much.

today, the lei feng spirit of the people in the probation, in between there are a lot of our revolution, "fool." lei feng has left us more than 40 years, but his spirit is with the times, shine forever.

traffic police, they stand in the street on day and night, to withstand the test of wind and rain, frost withstand the torture, whether it is a cold winter or hot summer, they always standing there; regardless of family and friends are still ordinary people, they always impartial and incorruptible, impartial treatment. they pay for this cause too much too much, sacrifice too much, no matter how difficult the road, they decided to do so. traffic police are not our great-human transmission is lei feng?

teacher, they work day and night, i do not know the number of correct operation, i do not know how many little rest at night. in their teachings, we know how to make an aspiring person, a noble person, a moral person, a person the benefit of the people; in their care under the guidance, i do not know how many people have embarked on a the success of the road. they love their work, paid in full, return was always someone else’s happiness. them as a candle, burning himself, and lit up the others, and our hard won ding lei feng-human transmission is not it?

people’s liberation army soldiers, who guarded the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, the republic of the great walllife. vanguard is the pacesetter; floods, are the vanguards; sacrificed their lives to save, or pacesetter ... ... a few days and nights never sleep, they have no complaints; together with their families far more than they have no complaints; selfless for the people, dedication to the motherland they have no complaints about ... ... they really do the "first and worry about all over the world, after everyone else to enjoy." these are not the people’s liberation army soldier lei feng is the successor?

project hope’s first contributions to people, are tianjin tanggu district experimental primary school students, january 1, ×× he told the china youth development foundation contributed 27 yuan relief-of-school children. shandong province, the western suburbs of the third school (2) students wei, tsung-wei new concern for the care for have never stopped. carried out my classes, "a gang of one" campaign, after a period of time, was to help students score significantly improve with the truth ... ... everyone loved, struck up a touching song; those helping others who do not like mine feng uncle as "silly" the sweet吗? lei feng is it not our human?

lei feng has become a perfect purification of the soul of a model of personality.

it is precisely because it was the traffic police, teachers, the people’s liberation army soldiers and young people of these people, our community will be stability and prosperity, national unity and brotherhood is more toward the pace of civilization forward is more sound, and our country also it is more powerful, the future also be more full of hope and vitality.

regardless of whether the traffic police, teachers, or the people’s liberation army soldiers, or young people, they have the lei feng such a "no benefit has been dedicated to carlo," the great spirit, this illustrates that lei feng is not unattainable, china education net documents the total channel everyone can learn from lei feng, everyone can become the lei feng lei feng spirit is ever-present: "comrade treatment, such as spring-like warmth; treat job, such as hot as the summer; treat individuals marxism, like autumn leaves as sweep; treat the enemy as ruthless as the severe winter. "lei feng spirit is everywhere, and lei feng spirit has been demonstrated here, where lei feng spirit shining brightly.

human lives are the most valuable, but why people alive? where the meaning of life? lei feng in their own actions on the world to do our best answer. students, please permit me to lei feng’s speech this sentence as the concluding words right:

human life is limited, but human services are unlimited, limited to my life, into serving the people go unlimited! students, let us, in the ordinary life, do a double extraordinary things!

尊敬的各位老师，各位同学，大家好!今天我演讲的题目是《为青春理想而奋斗》。

同学们，我们正处于朝气蓬勃的年纪，这也是一个积累知识，奠定理想的最佳时期。充满梦想的青春，能让我们收获理想的硕果。然而，部分同学的人生观、价值观发生了扭曲，生活上相互攀比，学习上想不劳而获。他们抱着，做一天和尚，撞一天钟的想法，在校园内虚度光阴，没有学习上的激情，更没有远大的人生理想。

有些同学也许会问，理想是什么呢?俄国文学家，列夫托尔斯泰曾说过：理想是指明灯，没有理想，就没有坚定的方向。同学们，理想是多方位的，不同时期，就会有不同的理想，也许你现在的理想是，要考入一所重点高中;不久的将来，你的理想又是，能上一所名牌大学·······。同学们，此刻的你是否找寻到人生的方向了呢?你的梦想是否遥不可及呢?因此说，理想也是多层次的，一个理想实现了，另一个理想又在不知不觉中诞生。理想是属于未来的，它就像黑夜里的灯塔，指引我们前进的方向。

我们怎样才能实现自己的理想呢?首先要计划出，每一阶段的理想，就像选择自己将要到达的人生驿站，它会让你享受成功的快乐，引领你向下一个高峰勇敢前进;然后，才能实现你的人生理想。当然，理想更要立足于现实，作为一名中学生，必须做好每天的功课，掌握老师教授的知识。否则，他的理想就是空想，会像七彩的泡沫一样破裂。

同学们，让我们珍惜现在的学习时光，树立自己的人生理想吧，做一个有志者事竟成的人，让我们携起手来，为青春理想而奋斗吧!

我的演讲完毕，谢谢大家!

尊敬的各位老师，亲爱的同学们：

Faculty, family, friends, and fellow graduates, good evening.

I am honored to address you tonight. On behalf of the graduating masters and doctoral students of Washington Universitys School of Engineering and Applied Science, I would like to thank all the parents, spouses, families, and friends who encouraged and supported us as we worked towards our graduate degrees. I would especially like to thank my own family, eight members of which are in the audience today. I would also like to thank all of the department secretaries and other engineering school staff members who always seemed to be there when confused graduate students needed help. And finally I would like to thank the Washington University faculty members who served as our instructors, mentors, and friends.

As I think back on the seven-and-a-half years I spent at Washington University, my mind is filled with memories, happy, sad, frustrating, and even humorous.

Tonight I would like to share with you some of the memories that I take with me as I leave Washington University.

I take with me the memory of my office on the fourth floor of Lopata Hall - the room at the end of the hallway that was too hot in summer, too cold in winter, and always too far away from the womens restroom. The window was my offices best feature. Were it not for the physics building across the way, it would have afforded me a clear view of the arch. But instead I got a view of the roof of the physics building. I also had a view of one corner of the roof of Urbauer Hall, which seemed to be a favorite perch for various species of birds who alternately won perching rights for several weeks at a time. And I had a nice view of the physics courtyard, noteworthy as a good place for watching people run their dogs. Its amazing how fascinating these views became the longer I worked on my dissertation. But my favorite view was of a nearby oak tree. From my fourth-floor vantage point I had a rather intimate view of the tree and the various birds and squirrels that inhabit it. Occasionally a bird would land on my window sill, which usually had the effect of startling both of us.

I take with me the memory of two young professors who passed away while I was a graduate student. Anne Johnstone, the only female professor from whom I took a course in the engineering school, and Bob Durr, a political science professor and a member of my dissertation committee, both lost brave battles with cancer. I remember them fondly.

I take with me the memory of failing the first exam in one of the first engineering courses I took as an undergraduate. I remember thinking the course was just too hard for me and that I would never be able to pass it. So I went to talk to the professor, ready to drop the class. And he told me not to give up, he told me I could succeed in his class. For reasons that seemed completely ludicrous at the time, he said he had faith in me. And after that my grades in the class slowly improved, and I ended the semester with an A on the final exam. I remember how motivational it was to know that someone believed in me.

I take with me memories of the midwestern friendliness that so surprised me when I arrived in St. Louis 8 years ago. Since moving to New Jersey, I am sad to say, nobody has asked me where I went to high school.

I take with me the memory of the short-lived computer science graduate student social committee lunches. The idea was that groups of CS grad students were supposed to take turns cooking a monthly lunch. But after one grad student prepared a pot of chicken that poisoned almost the entire CS grad student population and one unlucky faculty member in one fell swoop, there wasnt much enthusiasm for having more lunches.

I take with me the memory of a more successful graduate student effort, the establishment of the Association of Graduate Engineering Students, known as AGES. Started by a handful of engineering graduate students because we needed a way to elect representatives to a campus-wide graduate student government, AGES soon grew into an organization that now sponsors a wide variety of activities and has been instrumental in addressing a number of engineering graduate student concerns.

I take with me the memory of an Engineering and Policy department that once had flourishing programs for full-time undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students.

I take with me memories of the 1992 U.S. Presidential debate. Eager to get involved in all the excitement I volunteered to help wherever needed. I remember spending several days in the makeshift debate HQ giving out-of-town reporters directions to the athletic complex. I remember being thrilled to get assigned the job of collecting film from the photographers in the debate hall during the debate. And I remember the disappointment of drawing the shortest straw among the student volunteers and being the one who had to take the film out of the debate hall and down to the dark room five minutes into the debate - with no chance to re-enter the debate hall after I left.

I take with me memories of university holidays which never seemed to apply to graduate students. I remember spending many a fall break and Presidents Day holiday with my fellow grad students in all day meetings brought to us by the computer science department.

I take with me memories of exams that seemed designed more to test endurance and perseverance than mastery of the subject matter. I managed to escape taking any classes that featured infamous 24-hour-take-home exams, but remember the suffering of my less fortunate colleagues. And what doctoral student could forget the pain and suffering one must endure to survive the qualifying exams?

I take with me the memory of the seven-minute rule, which always seemed to be an acceptable excuse for being ten minutes late for anything on campus, but which doesnt seem to apply anywhere else I go.

I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.

I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.

Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Heres how it goes:

My uncle ordered popovers

from the restaurants bill of fare.

And when they were served,

he regarded them

with a penetrating stare . . .

Then he spoke great Words of Wisdom

as he sat there on that chair:

"To eat these things,"

said my uncle,

"you must excercise great care.

You may swallow down whats solid . . .

BUT . . .

you must spit out the air!"

And . . .

as you partake of the worlds bill of fare,

thats darned good advice to follow.

Do a lot of spitting out the hot air.

And be careful what you swallow.

Thank you.
