青春期英语演讲5分钟（通用7篇）
The Olympics are just around the corner. Today I want to talk about good manners and courtesy.
We Chinese have always been respected and highly praised for good manners and courtesy which have as well become precious traditions of our people. In a couple of weeks beyond a large number of foreign friends will come to China to join us in enjoying the Olympics.
Before foreign guests we should have an easy manner and behave politely and warm-heartedly.
In public places such ugly behaviors as uproar pushing or squeezing together spitting and so on should be determinedly forbidden. In a sense each of us will not simply stand for ourselves but stand for China.
Therefore boys and girls let’s do it well right now and the eyes of the world are to on us!
youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. it is not a matter ofrosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees. it is a matter of the will, a quality ofthe imagination, vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springof life.
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of theappetite for adventure over the love of ease. this often exits in a man of 60,more than a boy of 20. nobody grows merely by the number of years;we grow old bydeserting our ideas. years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasmwrinkles the soul.
worry, fear, self-distrust1 bows the heart and turns the spirit back todust. whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure ofwonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the gameof living.
in the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; solong as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from menand from infinite, so long as you are young. when the aerials are down, and yourspirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, thenyou've grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up.
I believe in our future
Honorable Judges, fellow students:
Good afternoon!
Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The college students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. But again, the cynics are wrong. We care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. Last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. I believe in all my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. I believe in our future.
Our common destiny
“ We are made wise not by the recollections of the past but by our responsibility for the future”
----George Bernard Shaw
China is faced with some enormous challenges as it enters the 21st century. In order to ensure the prosperity of our nation and its future generations we must confront and ultimately solve these challenges.
Some of the more pressing issues facing China are universal. These include environmental degradation, over population and the effects of globalization.
To overcome some of the things we need to implement include:
Enhancing our scientific and industrial technologies in such areas as IT, Bio- tech, AI and Cybernetics.
Further develop public infrastructure in under developed regions.
Promote education reform at all levels.
Introduce sustainable development initiatives.
The implementation of free trade agreement between China and ASEAN.
The benefit to China in introducing these initiatives will be significant and far-reaching. It is important to realize that these initiatives need to filter down through all elements of the society in China. For instance, cutting edge technologies and intellectual properties; the development of e-commerce based economy; an education system that encourages innovation and creativity; increased foreign investment; higher living standards; more efficient use of natural resources.
It is important for us to realize these reforms are both essential and necessary. These will help China to fulfill its vast and unrealized potential on the world stage. It will also contribute more to a globalized world of the new century.
As for the future our task is not to foresee but to enable.
Recently graffiti has become more noticeable in my college. I feel quite annoyed at them, especially when some of my classmates praise them as a kind of so-called art. Confronted with this impolite phenomenon, I can’t help asking myself: what is wrong with today’s teenagers?
In my opinion, graffiti is a form of vandalism. They are a mess and are ugly to look at. Meanwhile, walls are public places, and they should not be used to express personal views and feelings.
I really think vandalism should be stopped, and those who refuse to stop this bad practice should be punished. We should clear away these ugly expressions and drawings so that our college may return to its true self--a clean, quiet place for study, teaching and research.
There will be a speech on our school playground this Saturday afternoon, whose theme is “To civilize schoolyard is my responsibility”。All the teachers and students are required to attend. In the activity, the first two winners in each grade will give such valuable advice as follows: we should not litter anywhere in order to keep our campus clean; we should love flowers, grass and trees so that everyone can enjoy the greenness; we should behave well instead of running after one another, quarreling and fighting noisily; we should care for others so that our school will be full of love. We believe our school will become more and more beautiful and peaceful.
Between the preparation and the work,the apprenticeship and the actualdealing with a task or an art,there comes, in the experience of many young men,aperiod of uncertainty and wandering which is often misunderstood and counted astime wasted,when it is, in fact, a period rich in full and free development.
It is as natural for ardent and courageous youth to wish to know what is inlife, what it means, and what it holds for its children,as for a child to reachfor and search the things that surround and attract it.Behind every real workerin the world is a real man, and a man has a right to know the conditions underwhich he must live,and the choices of knowledge, power, and activity which areoffered him.In the education of many men and women, therefore, there comes theyear of wandering;the experience of traveling from knowledge to knowledge andfrom occupation to occupation.
The forces which go to the making of a powerful man can rarely be adjustedand blended without some disturbance of relations and conditions.Thisdisturbance is sometimes injurious, because it affects the moral foundationsupon which character rests;and for this reason the significance of theexperience in its relation to development ought to be sympatheticallystudied.The birth of the imagination and of the passions, the perception of therichness of life,and the consciousness of the possession of the power to masterand use that wealth, create a critical moment in the history of youth,—a momentricher in possibilities of all kinds than comes at any later period.
Agitation and ferment of soul are inevitable in that wonderful moment.Thereare times when agitation is as normal as is self-control at other and lesscritical times.The year of wandering is not a manifestation of aimlessness, butof aspiration,and that in its ferment and uncertainty youth is often guided toand finally prepared for its task.
