Me and my Fears
Honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:
It is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful Saturday morning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the English language.
About a year and a half ago, I took part in my very first English Speech Contest. When I stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me, I could hardly speak. I stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling in vain for the right thing to say. My fears had paralyzed me.
While my passion for English has never changed, I lost my courage to speak in public. When my professor again encouraged me to take part in this Competition, I said “no.” I couldn’t endure yet another painful experience. He looked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. I will never forget his words. “Look,” he said, “We all have our fears, and you have yours. You could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraid to ever play again. Running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. A winner is not one who never fails，but one who never quits.”
I spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. Then I made the bravest and wisest decision of my life: I would face my fears – and take part in the competition!
As it turned out, my dear old professor was right. Now, here I am, once again standing before a microphone. My heart is beating fast, and my mouth is dry, but most importantly, I have faced my fears -- and that makes all the difference!
Thank you.
战胜恐惧
尊敬的评委，各位来宾，女士们先生们，我很荣幸在这个美妙的星期六早上来到这里，与你们分享我生命中一段特别的经历。
大概一年半以前，我参加了生平第一次演讲比赛。站在麦克风前，面对观众们期待的眼神，我竟紧张的说不出话来。那一刻，我是多么无助啊！
我对于英语的挚爱从未改变，但却从此失去了面对公众演讲的勇气。当老教授鼓励我参加希望英语风采大赛时，我拒绝了。他直视我的眼睛，说了一番令我终身难忘的话。“你瞧，”他说，“我们都有自己e799bee5baa6e997aee7ad94e59b9ee7ad94366的恐惧。你可能会在一场篮球比赛中扭脚，并从此害怕再打球。你只能用行动去克服自己的恐惧，逃避是没有用的。生活中的成功者往往是永不放弃的人。”
我花了一整天时间思考他的话。 然后，我做出了一个勇敢而明智的决定： 我要参加中央电视台第五届“希望之星”英语风采大赛！
老教授是对的。我发挥出了自己的水平，一路杀进了全国总决赛。此时此刻，当我再一次站在了麦克风前，仍然心跳不止，但更重要的是，我终于能够勇敢地面对我的恐惧了，而这已足够了。
Change the World,Change Ourselves
Good evening, Honorable judges, Ladies and gentlemen.
It’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—Change the World,Change Ourselves
It’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. Not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.
Frankly speaking, i don't quite agree with them.Indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. (examples).But why can't we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.
There are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. On the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don't have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father's day and april fool's day etc. On the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. Overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.
With the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important. We are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.The only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? The answer is definitely no. What we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. Only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture. Only by educating can we play a really important role in the world.

晚上好，尊敬的法官，女士们，先生们。
我很高兴站在这里发表我的演讲 - 改变世界，改变我们自己
值得注意的是，西方节日越来越受欢迎，而中国传统节日却被忽略了。不久之前，北京大学和清华大学的大约10名医生宣布我们应该拒绝西方假期的入侵，因为他们认为西方假期是对我们传统节日和文化的挑战。
坦率地说，我不太同意他们。事实上，我们不应该忽视甚至抛弃我们的传统节日，因为中国拥有辉煌的历史和灿烂的传统。 （例子）。但为什么我们不能吸收有意义的西方节日和文化。
西方一些节日在中国如此受欢迎的原因显而易见。一方面，我们中国人没有的一些西方假期是合理和有意义的，比如父亲节和愚人节等。另一方面，全球化的盛行使西方文化在中国盛行。受这种趋势的影响，中国人不情愿地涉足西方节日和文化。
随着全球的进一步发展，不同国家和民族之间的文化交流变得越来越快，越来越重要。我们确实来自不同的国家，但我们是同一个世界的公民，所以不同国家的优秀文化是地球上每个人的共同财富。我们保护我们的传统文化的唯一途径是拒绝外来文化？答案肯定不是。我们应该做的是不遗余力地教育中国人去了解和珍惜我们灿烂的传统而不是拒绝外国文化。只有通过教育，我们才能树立我们对文化的信心和信念。只有通过教育，我们才能在世界上发挥非常重要的作用。

Courage
-- John Kennedy
The courage of life is a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must – in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures – and that is the basic of all human morality.
To be courageous … requires no exceptional qualifications, no magic formula, no special combination of time, place and circumstance. It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all. Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage. In whatever arena of life one may meet the challenge of courage, whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience – the loss of his friends, his fortune, his contentment, even the esteem of his fellow men – each man must decide for himself the course he will follow. The stories of past courage can define that ingredient – they can teach, they can offer hope, they can provide inspiration. But they cannot supply courage itself. For this each man must look into his own soul.
勇气
——约翰。肯尼迪
人生之中的勇气，常常不像千钧一发时刻的要求那样充满戏剧性；但是它却同样是一个有关胜利与悲剧的壮观结合体。一个人要去做他必须做的任何事情——将个人得失置之度外，诸多的障碍、危险、和压力抛诸脑后——这便是人类一切道德的基础。
勇敢。。。。。。不需要额外的条件，也没有奇妙的规则，同样也不需要时间、地点和情势的特异结合，我们每个人迟636f7079e799bee5baa6e997aee7ad94339早都会遇到这样一个机会。政治只不过是对勇气进行特别考验的一个场所罢了。无论在人生的何种场合下遭遇勇气的挑战，也不论是为了遵从自己的良知而将面对的牺牲——朋友、财富和满足的丧失，甚至于其他人对你的尊重——每个人都必须自己决断其所遵行的方针路线。他人勇敢的故事可以阐述那个因素——能够教导我们，为我们提供希望和灵感，但却不能给予我们勇气。因此，每个人必须深入到自己的灵魂之中去寻找勇气。
