演講稿一
Ladies and Gentlemen, Good afternoon!
I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. Today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it, and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
First I want to ask you some questions:
1、Do you know what is youth? 2、How do you master your youth?
Youth
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 of 16, there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!
青春
青春不是指歲月，而是指心態(tài)。粉嫩的臉，紅潤的唇，矯健的膝并不是青春。青春表現(xiàn)在意志的堅強(qiáng)與懦弱。想象的豐富與蒼白、情感的充沛與貧乏等方面。青春是生命深處清泉的噴涌。
青春是追求。只有當(dāng)勇氣蓋過怯弱、進(jìn)取壓倒茍安之時，青春才存在。果如此，則60見之長者比20歲之少年更具青春活力。僅僅歲月的流逝并不能使他們衰老。而一旦拋棄理想和信念，則垂垂老也。
歲月只能使皮膚起皺。而一旦喪失生活的激情，則連靈魂枯老，使人生枯如死水，毫無活力。 60歲長者也好，16歲少年也罷，每個人的內(nèi)心深處都渴望奇跡，都如孩子一般眨著期待的雙眼，期待著下一次，期待著生活的情趣，你我靈魂深處都有一座無線電中轉(zhuǎn)站------只有你我年輕，則總能聽到希望的呼喚，總能發(fā)出喜悅的歡呼，總能傳達(dá)勇氣的訊號，總能表現(xiàn)出青春的活力„„„
一旦青春的天線倒下，你的靈魂即為玩世不恭之雪、悲觀厭世之冰覆蓋;即使你年方
20.其實(shí)你已垂垂老也。而只要你青春的天線高高聳起，就可以隨時接收到樂觀的電波-----即使你年過八旬，行將就木，而你卻仍然擁有青春，你仍然年輕。
謝謝!
演講稿二
Good morning,horoned teachers and lovely students：
Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I don‟t know who wrote these words, but I‟ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, it‟s a state of mind. It‟s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It‟s the matter of the will. It‟s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being „s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what‟s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there‟s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young . 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 an hour. 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.”
This is the end of my speech, thank you.
尊敬的老師，親愛的同學(xué)們，大家早上好：
一些人說‚我們正在讀一本無窮的書中的第一章的第一節(jié)。‛我不知道誰寫了這些話，但是我一直很喜歡它，因?yàn)樗嵝蚜宋遥覀兡軌騽?chuàng)造我們想要的未來。
我們都是農(nóng)夫。如果我們播下好的種子，我們將會豐收。如果我們的種子很差，有很多草籽，收割的將是無用的莊稼。如果我們什么也不播種，什么收獲也沒有。
我們是年輕的。‚怎樣度過青春?‛這是個有意義的問題。為了去回答它，我首先要問‚從‘青春’這個詞中你能理解到什么?‛ 青春不是人生的一個時期，而是精神的一種狀態(tài)。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流.
一位詩人說‚從一粒沙看世界，從一朵花看天堂，把無限放在你的手掌，永恒在一剎那里收藏‛。幾天前，我有了一個聽講座的機(jī)會，從中我學(xué)到了很多東西。現(xiàn)在，我想把這些與大家共享。讓我們伸出右手，我們可以看到手掌中的展示我們的愛，事業(yè)和生活的三條線。我在生活方面這條線很短，那你們的呢?我想知道我們是否可以用這種辦法去看我們的未來。好的，讓我們一起握拳。我們的未來在哪兒?我們的愛、事業(yè)和生活在哪兒?告訴我!是的，它們就在我們的手中。它們被我們自己掌握著。
我們所有人都希望未來能比過去更美好，但是未來能自己變得更好。不要因?yàn)榻Y(jié)束而哭泣，微笑吧，為你的曾經(jīng)擁有。從過去來看，生活是艱苦的，但我們是更堅強(qiáng)。我們知道我們不能選擇感覺，但是我們能選擇和它相關(guān)的東西。失敗并不意味著你不擁有成功，它只意味著你應(yīng)該用另一種方式去做這件事。失敗并不意味著你應(yīng)該放棄，只意味著你應(yīng)該更加努力。
我們所有人都希望未來能比過去更美好，但是未來能自己變得更好。不要因?yàn)榻Y(jié)束而哭泣，微笑吧，為你的曾經(jīng)擁有。從過去來看，生活是艱苦的，但我們是更堅強(qiáng)。我們知道我們不能選擇感覺，但是我們能選擇和它相關(guān)的東西。失敗并不意味著你不擁有成功，它只意味著你應(yīng)該用另一種方式去做這件事。失敗并不意味著你應(yīng)該放棄，只意味著你應(yīng)該更加努力。 正如我在前面所說的‚我們正在讀一本無窮的書中的第一章的第一節(jié)。‛過去的已經(jīng)過去，無論我們無力改變，但是未來卻在我們前方。相信‚我們給了世界什么，世界也將給我們‛。并且從今天起，讓我們一起做我們自己的主人，一起大聲說出‚世界是我們的，未來是我們的。
