My definition of success
Today I am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. What is success? It is what everyone is longing times success would be rather si-mp-le. Winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; ma-ki-ng a new friend is success; even now I am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.
However, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very complicated. Is fortune success? Is fame success? Is high social status success? No, I don’t think so. I believe success is the realization of people’
s hopes and days, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. And the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. So most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. But the problem is wether it is real success. We all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. If we keep chasing them, where is the end? What will satisfy us at last? Therefore, we can see, to get the real Success we must need something inside, which is the realization of
people’ hopes and ideals.
Different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopes and ideas vary from one another. But I am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. These are the best treasures. So now I am very proud that I have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. It is my success, cause I raise up to challenge my hope. What is success? Everyone has his own interpretation as I do. But I am sure
every success leads to an ever-brighter future. So ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a
successful life! Wish you all good success!

Gentlemen , Good afternoon! Im 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 whats next and the joy of the
game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart theres 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。粉嫩的臉，紅潤的脣，矯健的膝並不是青春。青春表現在意志的堅強與懦弱。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湧。 青春是追求。只有當勇氣蓋過怯弱、進取壓倒苟安之時，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。僅僅歲月的流逝並不能使他們衰老。而一旦拋棄理想和信念，則垂垂老也。 歲月只能使面板起皺。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，每個人的內心深處都渴望奇蹟，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站------只有你我年輕，則總能聽到希望的呼喚，總能發出喜悅的'歡呼，總能傳達勇氣的訊號，總能表現出青春的活力……… 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！ 是否還記得從前美麗的天色那時天很藍我們的未來都在不遠地方晴朗著一切都變了生命不只是快樂濃濃黑霧籠罩我們暴風雨就要來了但誰說不能肩並著肩站穩我們用心和用愛創造讓新的世界誕生在我心中我知道這是永恆的長跑好不容易 來到這裡明天還要追更多榮耀把自己角色扮演好全力以赴每一秒和我的家人和我的朋友向著目標手牽手 一起走到這又是起點我們有一樣心願當我們團結狂風巨浪也不能阻擋我們走向前誰害怕改變只要緊握著信念心中有夢沒有遙遠跨出去就在瞬間但誰說不能肩並著肩站穩我們用心和用愛創造讓新的世界誕生在我心中我知道這是永恆的長跑好不容易 來到這裡明天還要追更多榮耀把自己角色扮演好全力以赴每一秒和我的家人和我的朋友向著目標手牽手 一起走到把自己角

Hold Fast to Your Dreams
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every valley 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 need 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.
抓牢你的夢想
我今天有一個夢想。
我夢想有一天，幽谷上升，高山下降，崎嶇之地變平原，曲折之路成坦途。聖光展露，滿照人間。
這對馬丁路德金是怎樣的一個夢想啊。不過這個變化著的世界似乎在告訴我，在成長的過程中，人們卻不知不覺把他們的夢想弄丟了，而我自己也有時會覺得在告別很多童年的夢。
然而，我們是需要夢想的。夢想滋養我們的靈魂，夢想代表著我們被現實拉垮時依然具有的希望。它鼓勵我們不斷前進。大多數成功人士都是夢想家，同時也是普通人，只是他們敢於夢想敢於成就偉大。當我們還是孩子的時候，我們都夢想過做一番大事業，現在應當做的就是儲存好那些夢想，再度恢復它們，並將它們實現。不過最難的是我們通常不知道怎樣付諸實施。那麼，就從最具體的目標開始，堅持去做吧。不要讓那些莫名的恐懼迷惑了我們的雙眼，影響了我們對未來的信念。用我們的天資和智慧，用我們的耐力和創造力，我們一定會實現夢想。
抓牢你的夢想，因為如果夢想死亡，生活就成了一隻折斷翅膀的鳥再也不能飛翔。抓牢你的夢想，因為如果失去夢想，生命就成了一塊覆蓋著冰雪的貧瘠的凍土。親愛的朋友們，想想那些過去的或已經死去的夢想吧。不管是什麼，重新將它撿起，並從今天開始讓它重生。
Make Every Moment Count
One night, I complained to my mom about the lack of time. Finally she said,＂you are short of time just because you waste precious minutes on complaints and anxiety. The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard, you can always fit in some thing more.＂
It is the same with filling the jar. Even if you place a dozen fist-sized rocks and a bucket of gravel into the jar, there is still space for sand and water between the rocks and gravel.
The lack of time is just the excuse for my negligence of every single minute. I believe that the great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in six words,＂I did not have enough time.＂The fact is I do have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein. The point is I have never touched upon the real meaning of life which lies in snatching, seizing and enjoying every minute of it. No idleness, no delay, no procrastination, no complaint! It is during my moments of complaining or hesitation that my destiny is shaped. Once I make full use of every moment, I believe that, my worries will be gradually cut down to nothing.
Time is the most valuable of all our possessions, but the most perishable as well. As Henry David Thoreau said,＂You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.＂
Whenever I fell the lack of time in the future, I will tell myself ＂Carpe diem , seize the day, make every moment count.＂
抓住每分每秒
有天晚上，我向媽媽抱怨自己事情太多，時間不夠。她說道：“你抱怨沒有時間就是因為你把珍貴的分分秒秒都浪費在抱怨和焦慮上。關鍵是，無論你的時間表排得多滿，如果你真的努力嘗試了，你還是總能間插地做些事情。”
這同填充廣口瓶是一個道理，即使你將一小堆拳頭大小的石塊和一桶碎石倒進瓶裡，也還能繼續倒入沙子和水，使其漏進石塊的間隙中去。
“沒時間”無異於我為自己浪費分分秒秒找的託詞罷了。我相信成功與失敗的一線之差可以用六個字來形容：“我沒足夠時間。” 然而事實上，我卻與海倫．凱勒，帕斯特，傑弗遜和愛因斯坦每天所擁有的時間分秒不差。關鍵是我並未觸及生命的真諦：抓住，享受生命的每一分鐘。不要碌碌無為，不要耽擱推遲，不要牢騷抱怨！往往是在我抱怨和遲疑的時候，我的命運就被決定了。而一旦我能善用分分秒秒，我相信我的煩惱也會被逐漸瓦解。
在我們所擁有的財富中，時間是最珍貴而又最不持久的。正如梭羅所說的那樣：“你得抓住現在，把握機會，在短暫的瞬間中尋找永恆。”
如果將來我再發覺沒時間的時候，我會告誡自己，“carpe diem (拉丁語)，抓住今天，抓住每分每秒。”
No One Can Be Perfect
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Today I want to tell you a story about one of my friends, a lovely and smart girl who is always ready to help others. Being our grade leader, she is good at both work and study. In many people's opinion, she is excellent and perfect. But one day she told me she was gloomy and insecure. People around her considered her outstanding and flawless, thinking she could handle everything. But the more she thought about herself, the more disappointed she became. She found that she was far from perfection. Last week, she didn’t do well in her French quiz, and the day before yesterday, she was late for a conference. She felt depressed and frustrated, because she failed to be a perfect girl without any mistakes.
I was surprised to hear that for I thought she had every reason to be confident. However, the expectation of perfection has become a burden to her. I told her no one could be perfect and I suggested she find her own position.
In fact, people are so eager to be perfect that they demand too much of themselves. They want to be special and unique, and they want to have no defects or weaknesses. However, we can never avoid mistakes and errors. It’s impossible for us to be a superman or a superwoman. No matter how successful we are, there are always some flaws. If we hold that everything should be perfect, we would be overcritical.
My friend now has changed her attitude. She accepts her shortcomings but still keeps a positive outlook. She is even more active and doesn’t allow the mistakes to hinder her pursuit of excellence. And I think that’s the way we should be！That’s all. Thank you!
沒有人可以完美無缺
女士們、先生們，大家早上好！今天我想給大家講一個我朋友的故事。她是一個聰明可愛、樂於助人的女孩。作為我們的年級長，她無論工作還是學習都很出色。在很多人眼裡，她是如此優秀，近乎完美了。但有一天她卻告訴我，她很迷惘和自卑：周圍的人都認為她很優秀，完美無缺，可以對付任何事情；而她想得越多對自己就越是失望。她發覺自己遠不夠完美。上週她的法語測驗考得不理想；前天，一個會議她又遲到了：很多事情做的不盡完美，這讓她很是灰心喪氣。
聽到這些的時候我很驚訝，我原以為她有充分的理由對自己充滿信心。然而，對完美的期望卻變成了她的負擔。我告訴她，沒有人可以完美無缺的，她應該找到自己真正的位置。
實際上，人們有時過於追求完美而且期望的太多了。我們想要特別，想要獨一無二；又想要沒有缺點沒有弱點。可是，人是無法避免錯誤的,有誰能成為超人呢？無論你多麼成功，總是有一些事情不夠完美。如果我們堅持要完美無缺，那隻能是一種求全責備。
我的朋友現在已經改變了她的態度。她承認自己的不完美，但是保持著樂觀的心態。她沒有停止追求，反而變得更為積極。我想這正是我們應該有的態度。
Never Give Up
“If I could reach higher, just for one moment to touch the sky…”---this is from my favorite song Reach.
When we are appreciating the passionate melody of Gloria Estefan, we could hardly imagine that she could return to the stage after her paralysis. In the year 1990, this Cuban singer was knocked down in a traffic accident, and the doctor declared that she might never walk again. But Gloria did not give up and kept up constant exercising. Just one year after the disaster, she stood up again and presented this encouraging song at the Atlanta Olympics.
Whenever I think of Gloria, I can’t help recalling my memory seven years ago, when I first entered university. Naturally shy, ordinary looking, average scores in study, just like an ugly duckling, I seemed to be the least outstanding one in my class. And the successive failures in the beginning led me into despair. “Am I destined to take the back seat to others?” Unwilling to submit to the fate, I paid more efforts on my study as well as many other activities, film dubbing, recital, drama… cause I just want to catch every little opportunity to prove myself. Constant effort yields sure success. Thanks to the competition, I received some awards and most of all, I gained the courage and confidence to face any difficulties in my life journey.
Life is just like farming, and what you can reap depends a lot on your sowing and dedication. Once you have a dream, don’t be hesitant. Your next difficult step may be the one to the top. Keep going forward, even in the toughest time, and never give up.
永不放棄
“如果我能到達更高的地方，哪怕只有碰觸天空的一剎那…”---選自我所喜愛的歌曲《到達》。
當我們在欣賞葛羅莉亞·伊斯特芬那充滿激情的旋律，我們很難想象她能從癱瘓中回到舞臺。1990年這個古巴歌手遭遇車禍，醫生說她可能再也沒辦法走路了。可是葛羅莉亞並沒有放棄希望，堅持做恢復訓練。在災難後僅僅一年，她又站起來了，並且在亞特蘭大奧運會上唱響了這首鼓舞人心的歌曲。
每當我想起葛羅莉亞的時候，我禁不住回憶起七年前我剛進入大學的時候。天性害羞，相貌平平，成績一般，就像一隻醜小鴨，我是班上最不起眼的一個。而且在剛開學時一連串的失敗讓我陷入絕望。“難道我註定要給別人當配角嗎？” 不願意向這個命運屈服，我更加努力的學習並且參加許多其他的活動，電影配音、朗誦、戲劇…因為我想抓住任何一個微小的機會來證實我自己。不懈的努力終會帶來成功。我從競賽中獲得了一些獎勵，最重要的是，我從中得到了面對人生一切困難的勇氣和決心。
生活就像是耕耘，一份耕耘一份收穫。一旦你有了夢想，不要猶豫。你艱難的下一步也許就是通往成功的階梯。即使在最困難的時候也要勇往直前，決不放棄。
The Importance of Keeping Optimistic
Honourable judges, ladies and gentlemen,
Good afternoon! Today I would like to talk about the importance of keeping optimistic. When we encounter difficulties in life, we notice that some of us choose to bury their heads in the sand. Unfortunately, however, this attitude will do you no good, because if you will have no courage even to face them, how can you conquer them? Thus, be optimistic, ladies and gentlemen, as it can give you confidence and help you see yourself through the hard times, just as Winston Churchill once said, “An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity.”
Ladies and Gentlemen, keeping optimistic, you will be able to realize, in spite of some hardship, there’s always hope waiting for you, which will lead you to the ultimate success. Historically as well as currently, there are too many optimists of this kind to enumerate. You see, Thomas Edison is optimistic; if not, the light of hope in his heart could not illuminate the whole world. Alfred Nobel is optimistic; if not, the explosives and the prestigious Nobel Prize would not have come into being. And Lance Armstrong is also optimistic; if not, the devil of cancer would have devoured his life and the world would not see a 5-time winner of the Tour De France.
A rose may be beautiful, or maybe not; that depends on your attitude only, and so does success, so does life. Hindrances and difficulties do exist, but if you are optimistic, then they are only episodes on your long way to the throne of success; they are more bridges than obstacles! Now I prefer to end my speech with the great British poet Shelley’s lines: “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” Thank you!
保持樂觀的重要性
尊敬的評委、女士們、先生們：
下午好！今天我想談一談保持樂觀的重要性。 我們注意到，當在生活中遇到困難時，我們中的有些人選擇逃避它們。但令人遺憾的是，這樣的態度對你沒有任何好處，因為如果你連面對它們的勇氣都沒有的話，你怎麼去征服它們呢？因此，樂觀起來吧，女士們、先生們，因為它會帶給你信心，幫助你渡過難關。正如溫斯頓·丘吉爾所說，“樂觀者在每次災難中都看到機遇；悲觀者在每次機遇中都看到災難”。
女士們，先生們，困難是存在的，但如果你保持樂觀，你就會意識到永遠有希望在等著你，它會把你領向最終的成功。不管是歷史上還是現實中，這樣的樂觀者總是不勝列舉。你看，托馬斯·愛迪生是樂觀的，如果不是的話，他心中那希望的明燈就不能照亮整個世界；阿爾弗雷德·諾貝爾是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那炸藥和享有很高聲望的諾貝爾獎就不會誕生；蘭斯·阿姆斯特朗也是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那癌症的病魔早已吞噬了他的生命，這個世界就會少了一位五屆環法自行車賽冠軍得主.
玫瑰花可能很美，也可能不美，這，僅僅取決於你的態度；而成功也如此，人生也如此。困難和阻礙的確存在，但是如果你很樂觀的話，那它們就僅僅是我們通向勝利之冠的漫長道路上的小插曲；與其說它們是障礙，不如說它們是橋樑！此刻，我想以偉大的英國詩人雪萊的一句詩來作為我的結尾：“冬天來了，春天還會遠嗎?”謝謝！
5到8分鐘的英語演講稿 [篇5]
Hello,everyone!on the past few days,ham and sausage are the most famous se WHO said that Processed meat is on the top of the list which may cause the same level ,there are the cigarettes and arsenic is arsenic?In China,we call it 砒霜 is terrible to they also said eating just 50 gram of processed meat one day increases the risk of cancer by 18 percent. So what does 50g look like?It’s maybe two slices of smoked ham or half a hot dog.A famous expert suggest the public to avoid processed meat when possible and to have a vegetable salad for lunch rather than a sandwich. And they also said that We have known the probable link between processed meat and cancer, which is supported by massive evidence. It maybe a bad news for hot dog
this doesn't mean we need to stop eating any processed meat. if someone eat lots of it and he may need to think carefully about whether he should cut it fact,there are a lot of choices for us. We could try having fish for our dinner instead of sausages, or choosing to have a fruit salad for lunch.
And someone may say:”Why is processed meat so bad?” Processed meat is which has been salted, cured, smoked, or any other natural or chemical processes to make them delicious or improve preservation. So processed meat may contain sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate, which are salts added to the meat to preserve the body, they can form the compounds that can damage DNA.
Nowdays,many person may do something which is harmful to their health,as they think cancer are far away from them,this words only usesd on newspa-pe-r or television. in my opinion,this idea is highly something bad happen，the total home will be destroy by you. So please ,take care of yourself,not only for you,but also for your family.
