第一篇：時(shí)間改變世界英文演講

Time changes the world

Hello everyone, My topic is time changes the world.As we all known, the world is not waiting for us, she has her own tool watching us and make us cry, smile and grown up.What is that, it’s time.Time is a legend, and changes the world everyday.Most of the children start to walk at the first twelve and fifteen months of lives, on average they will start attending school at age six or seven.It is typical that they will spend their next sixteen years in education, in love in all the feeling that the surrounding give, and then graduate，go to work spending lots of time earn little money at the beginning but with the time going by, the salary will increase while the working hours coming down.What all these happen are because of time, the magic time.If time is still, the whole world will be still, no sadness, panic, happiness and so on.Please allow me to present a fairly assumption about the eight minutes memory just before death.Eight minutes will change the world.This idea seems like humoristic or even ridiculous.However, it base on a scientific proof that there will be an eight minute memory stored in your part of brain ready to be extracted before the rotting flesh.The eight minutes is the last moment before the death, therefore if this kind of fragment of memory retrieved and then embedded in to another person’s brain, the truths of numbers of issues can be uncovered.Eight minutes can do lots of things.Let me give you an example, it is a story in a film called “ source code” and the story line is that the counter terrorist unit use this eight minute memory make another soldier who died in The Iraq War enter a blast scene in the New York city to looking for the murder.The story I told you just know sounds like a little bit fantastic, so now, let me give you some simple proofs that the time can change a world.For one thing, three years ago, you fell in a madly love with a man, he accept you at that time but when he saw the lady who is his true love, you broke up feel hurt while you don't want to get some rebound date with other guys in club or somewhere, then therefore, time is the best antidote.With the time going on, you will come back to the original happy one.For another thing, a little boy and a little live in neighbourhood from their childhood, grown up together, attend primary secondary and high school together and then luckily both of them are accepted by the same university, with time going on, as we all known, the happy ending like a fairy tale style called love will come in time.On the other hand, if they enter different university in different city, the long distances make them cannot meet each other for a long time.The ending will be sorrowful both of them have a separate world with others in their rest of lives.Therefore, time changes the world, with time going on, all the things in the world will be changed consciously or unconsciously, just like before you came into this room, you feel happy, with time going on, until most of you feel boring.That's all, thank you.

第二篇：(TED英文演講)用新詞改變世界——觀后感

“Change the world with new words.”————Feedback From the speaker, although English is a kind of wonderful language in the world, there are still many holes in it.To improve this, the speaker once created a dictionary as a supplementary to these holes.Accordingly, it received a great deal of positive reactions.Whereas, not merely language, other parts of the world also need one quality.That is innovation.We all need the passion for innovation.Innovation, namely creativity, is necessary whatever you do.We cannot ignore its significance unless human civilization fades away.Innovation process our society and keep humanity more lively than before.Just like the speaker’s dictionary, these new items are expected to be put into daily life so that people gradually receive and accept it.Most of us are searching for the meaning of life with creativity, which can lead our society to a apparent change.Finally, end up with a saying: “Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement.To invent your own life’s meaning is not easy, but it’s still allowed, and I think you’ll be happier for the trouble.”

第三篇：世界地球日英文演講

Protection environment Ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon!I feel really honored to stand here and make a speech.Today I'm going to look together with you into this question, protection environment.Maybe you have heard from many of the earth is polluted,but I think it is necessary to put emphasis on this.Because we have only one earth, If the earth is polluted, where we will go?

Once upon a time,there were few man on the earth.They do not think about protection of his environment.And natural resources seemed to be unlimited.But Today things are different.We know we if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear ,but we still cut a lot of trees ,we know we can’t drop the robbish,but we still drop them into the river.If we continue to do this, human life on earth will not survive.So what can we do for our earth?Don’t say that, None of my business to protect our environment.You are wrong.We have only one earth,if you do not protect it ,you will do not have any where to live.We have to starts from the minor matter.For example, stop using plastic bags, boxes and bottles,plant a lot of flowers and trees in your city and so on.Let's join to protect the environment

Thank you for your listening.

八段經(jīng)典英語演講節(jié)選

一．

Man’s dearest possession is life.It is given to him but once, and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years, never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past;so live that, dying, he might say: all my life, all my strength were given to the finest cause in all the world—the fight for the Liberation of Mankind.人生最寶貴的是生命。生命對(duì)于人來說只有一次。一個(gè)人的生命應(yīng)該這樣度過：當(dāng)他回首往事時(shí)，不因虛度年華而悔恨；也不會(huì)因?yàn)槁德禑o為而羞恥。在臨死的時(shí)候他能夠說：我的整個(gè)生命和全部精力都已經(jīng)獻(xiàn)給了世界上最壯麗的事業(yè)――為人類的解放事業(yè)而斗爭！

二．

Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money, it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative efforts, the joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits.These dark days, my friends, will be worth all they cost us, if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered on to , but to minister to ourselves, to our fellow men.幸福并不在于單純的占有金錢，幸福還在于取得成功后的喜悅，在于創(chuàng)造努力時(shí)的激情。務(wù)必不能再忘記勞動(dòng)帶來的喜悅和激勵(lì)，而去瘋狂追逐那轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝的利潤。如果這些黯淡的日子能使我們認(rèn)識(shí)到，我們真正的使命不是要?jiǎng)e人侍奉，而是要為自己和同胞們服務(wù)的話，那么，我們付出的代價(jià)是完全值得的。

三．

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed-we hold theses truths to be self-Oevident, that all men are created equal.I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, sons of former slaves and sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood.I have a dream my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.i have a dream today!When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and hamlet, from every state and city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children-black men and white men , jews and Gentiles, Catholics and Protestants-will be able to join hands and to sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “free at least ,free at last.Thank God Almighty，we are free at last.我有一個(gè)夢(mèng)：有一天，這個(gè)國家將站起來，并實(shí)現(xiàn)他的信條的真正含義：我們將捍衛(wèi)這些不言而喻的真理，即所有人生來平等。我有一個(gè)夢(mèng)：有一天在喬治亞洲紅色的山丘上，從前的奴隸的子孫們能和奴隸主的子孫們像兄弟一樣坐在同一張桌旁；我有一個(gè)夢(mèng)我的四個(gè)孩子有一天將生活在這樣一個(gè)國度，在那里，人們不以膚色，而是以品格來評(píng)價(jià)他們。當(dāng)自由的鐘聲響起的時(shí)候，當(dāng)我們讓它從每一個(gè)村莊，每一個(gè)州，每一個(gè)城市響起的時(shí)候，我們將能夠加速這一天的到來。那是，上帝所有的孩子，無論黑人白人還是猶太人，異教徒。天主教徒，還是新教徒，他們都能夠手挽手歌唱那古老的黑人圣歌：“終于自由了，終于自由了，感謝上帝，我們終于自由了！”

四．

I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind.We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, it is victory.Victory at all costs—victory in spite of all terrors—victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.Let that be realized, no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that British Empire has stood for , no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall more forward toward his goal.I take up my task in buoyancy and hope.I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men.I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “Come then, let us go

forward together with our united strength.”

譯文

我能奉獻(xiàn)的唯有熱血、辛勞、淚水和汗水。我們所面臨的將是一場極為殘酷的考驗(yàn)，我們面臨的將是曠日持久的斗爭和苦難。你若問我們的目標(biāo)是什么？我可以用一個(gè)詞來概括，那就是勝利。不惜一切代價(jià)去奪取勝利，不畏懼一切恐怖去奪取勝利，不論前路再長再苦也要多去勝利，因?yàn)闆]有勝利糾無法生存！我們必須意識(shí)到，沒有勝利就沒有大英帝國，沒有勝利就沒有大英帝國所象征的一切，沒有勝利就沒有多少世紀(jì)以來強(qiáng)烈的要求和沖動(dòng)：人類應(yīng)當(dāng)向自己的目標(biāo)邁進(jìn)。此刻，我的精神振奮，滿懷信心地承當(dāng)起自己的人物。我確信，只要我們大家聯(lián)合，我們的事業(yè)就不會(huì)挫敗。此時(shí)此刻千鈞一發(fā)之際，我覺得我有權(quán)要求各方面的支持。我要呼吁：“來吧，讓我們?nèi)翰吲?，并肩邁進(jìn)！

五.My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of men.Finally whether you are citizens of America, or citizens of the world, ask of us here, the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you.With a good conscience of our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth, God's work must truly be our own.--By John F.Kennedy

譯文：

美國同胞們，不要問美國能為你們做些什么，應(yīng)該問你們能為美國貢獻(xiàn)些什么。全世界的同胞們，不要問美國將為你做些什么，應(yīng)該問我們一同能為人類的自由做些什么。最后，無論你是美國公民還是其他國家的同胞，你們應(yīng)該要求我們獻(xiàn)出我們同樣要求于你們的高度的力量和犧牲。無愧于心是我們惟一可靠的獎(jiǎng)賞，歷史是我們行動(dòng)最終的裁判。這一切讓我們大步向前，去引領(lǐng)我們所熱愛的這片土地。我們祈求上帝的保佑和幫助，但我們很清楚，上帝在塵世的工作必定是我們自己的工作。

--[美]約翰〃肯尼迪

六、Let me express my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself-nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror, which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves, which is essential to victory and I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.In such a spirit on my part and on yours, we face our common difficulties.They concern, thank God, only material things.--By Franklin D.Roosevelt

譯文：

讓我來表明我堅(jiān)定的信念：我們不得不害怕的其實(shí)就是害怕本身--一種莫名奇妙的、喪失理智的、毫無根據(jù)的恐懼。它把人們轉(zhuǎn)退為進(jìn)所需要的種種努力化為泡影。但凡在我國生活陰云密布的時(shí)刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了不可缺少的必要條件。我相信，在目前危機(jī)的時(shí)刻，大家會(huì)再次給與同樣的支持。我和你們都要以這種精神來共同面對(duì)困難。感謝上帝，這些困難只是物質(zhì)方面的。

--[美]弗蘭克林〃羅斯福

七、In this symposium, better is it to only sit in silence.To express one's feelings as the end draws near is too intimate a task.That I would mention only one thought that comes to me as a listener-in: the riders in a race do not stop short when they reach the goal, there is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill, there is time to hear the kind voice of friends, and to say to oneself, the work is done.But just as one says that, the answer comes, the race is over, but the work never is done while the power to work remains.The canter that brings you to a standstill need not be only coming to rest;it cannot be while you still live.But to live is to function, that is all there is in living.So I end with a land from a Latin voice: death, death, clutches my ear, and says, live, I am coming.--By Oliver

Wendell Holmes

譯文：

此刻，沉默是金。要在生命即將完結(jié)之時(shí)表達(dá)個(gè)人感受并非易事。但我只是想談?wù)勛鳛橐幻麅A聽者的看法。騎士們并非一到終點(diǎn)就立刻止步。他們繼續(xù)緩步向前，傾聽朋友們的歡呼。他們雖然告訴自己行程已經(jīng)結(jié)束了。正如人們所說結(jié)果出來了,比賽結(jié)束了。但只要?jiǎng)恿θ栽?，人生之旅就尚未結(jié)束。終點(diǎn)之后的慢跑并非停止不前，因?yàn)榛钪悴荒苋绱??；钪鸵兴鳛?，這才是生命的真諦。最后謹(jǐn)以一句古拉丁格言與各位共勉：死神不止，奮斗不止。

--[美]奧利佛〃文德爾〃荷默斯

八、The grandest of these ideals is an unfolding American promise that everyone belongs, that everyone deserves a chance that no insignificant person was ever born.Americans are called to enact this promise in our lives and in our laws.And though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delayed, we must follow no other course.Through much of the last century, America's faith in freedom and democracy was a rock in a raging sea.Now it is a seed upon the wind, taking root in many nations.Our democratic faith is more than the creed of our country, it is the inborn hope of our humanity, an ideal we carry but do not own, a trust we bear and pass along.And even after nearly 225 years, we have a long way yet to travel.--By George W.Bush

譯文：

這些理想中最偉大的是正在慢慢實(shí)現(xiàn)的美國的承諾，這就是：每個(gè)人都有自身的價(jià)值，每個(gè)人都有成功的機(jī)會(huì)，每個(gè)人天生都會(huì)有所作為的。美國人民肩負(fù)著一種使命，那就是要竭力將這個(gè)諾言變成生活中和法律上的現(xiàn)實(shí)。雖然我們的國家過去在追求實(shí)現(xiàn)這個(gè)承諾的途中停滯不前甚至倒退，但我們?nèi)詫?jiān)定不移地完成這一使命。在上個(gè)世紀(jì)的大部分時(shí)間里，美國自由民主的信念猶如洶涌大海中的巖石?，F(xiàn)在它更像風(fēng)中的種子，把自由帶給每個(gè)民族。在我們的國家，民主不僅僅是一種信念，而是全人類的希望；民主，我們不會(huì)獨(dú)占，而會(huì)竭力讓大家分享；民主，我們將銘記于心并且不斷傳播。225年過去了，我們

仍有很長的路要走。--[美]喬治〃布什

Dr.Martin Luther King,—— “I Have A Dream”

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check.When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the “unalienable Rights” of “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.” But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.And so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now.This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy.Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment.This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.And those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence.Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny.And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.We cannot walk alone.And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.We cannot turn back.There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, “When will you be satisfied?” We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality.We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities.We cannot be satisfied as long as the negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one.We can never be satisfied as long as our children are stripped of their selfhood and robbed of their dignity by a sign stating: “For Whites Only.” We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until “justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.” I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations.Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells.And some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality.You have been the veterans of creative suffering.Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.I have a dream today!I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of “interposition” and “nullification” one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.I have a dream today!I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and 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.” This is our hope, and this is the faith that I go back to the South with.With this faith, we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.And this will be the day this will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning: My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing.Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, From every mountainside, let freedom ring!And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.And so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado.Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California.But not only that:

Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.From every mountainside, let freedom ring.And when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: Free at last!Free at last!Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!

聯(lián)合國秘書長安南在清華的演講

Ladies and Gentlemen,It is a great honour for me to speak at one of China’s great academic institutions one that is helping to revive and maintain your country’s historic tradition of leading the world in science and technology, and one whose alumni are to be found in positions of leadership throughout the country.Here, as in so many other places in China, no visitor can help feeling the excitement of a great country developing at breakneck speed, and every day opening up new vistas of knowledge and opportunity to its citizens.You can be really proud of your country and what it has achieved in the last 25 years.As I look out over the young faces in this audience I cannot help envying the international students more than a thousand, I am told, from over 50 countries who have the privilege of sharing your learning experience here.It reminds me for a moment of my own student days, when my country, Ghana, was newly independent.We felt we were suddenly reaching out to the world, and making new discoveries every day.But then I also remember that times of rapid change can bring pain and confusion, even destruction, as well as progress and excitement.The more rapid and exciting it is, the more change calls for careful management, and wise, humane leadership.Order and stability have to be preserved, but without choking off the freedom to enquire, and experiment, and express oneself, since as you young researchers know better than anyone knowledge and science have a vital role in national development.And technical expertise needs to be harnessed to the development and security of society as a whole, so that it not only creates greater wealth for the few, but enables all citizens to feel safer and more prosperous.The development of such a great country as China cannot happen in isolation.It affects the whole world, and it draws you into new relationships with other parts of the world.Increasingly, your economy depends on exchanges with other countries both imports and exports, of both goods and capital.Foreign investment plays an essential role in your growth, while your holdings of foreign currencies and your management of your own currency are coming to play a vital part in the international monetary system.This means that you have a stake in the development and prosperity of the wider world.And your security, too, depends on international peace and stability.喬丹的退役演說

I am here to announce my retirement from the game of basketball.It won't be another announcement to baseball or anything to that nature.Mentally, I'm exhausted, I don't feel I have a challenge.Physically, I feel great.The last time in 1993 I had other agendas.I felt that I wanted to play baseball and I felt that at my age, it was a good opportunity and time to do it.And with the death of my father, and I was basically trying to deal with that.Actually I talked to Jerry last year once the season ended and I told Jerry at that time, mentally, I was a little exhausted.I didn't know if I would play next year.I wanted to put him on awareness so that he could possibly prepare going into next season.And Jerry, once we had our conversation, wanted me to take time as I did in 93 to make sure that it was the right decision because it was going to be the final decision.I retired the first time when Phil Jackson was the coach.And I think that even with Phil being the coach I would have had a tough time, mentally finding the challenge for myself.Although he can somehow present challenges for me.I don't know if he could have presented the challenge for me to continue on to this season.“ Even though middle way of this season I wanted to continue to play a couple more years, but at the end of this season I was mentally drained and tired.So I can't say that he would have restored that.I will support the Chicago Bulls.I think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan.I've been given an opportunity by people before me, to name a few, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Doctor J, Eljohn Baylor, Jerry West.These guys played the game way before Michael Jordan was born and Michael Jordan came on the heels of all that activity.Mr Stern and what he's done for the league, gave me an opportunity to play the game of basketball.I played it to the best I could play it, I tried to enhance the game itself.I've tried to be the best basketball player that I could be.肯尼迪總統(tǒng)就職演說

Now the trumpet summons us again-not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need-not as a call to battle, though embattled we are-but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out, rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation-a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East and West that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join in that historic effort? In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger.I do not shrink from this responsibility-I welcome it.I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation.The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it-and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you-ask what you can do for your country.My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world , ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you.With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God’s work must truly be our own.現(xiàn)在，號(hào)角已再次吹響——不是召喚我們拿起武器，雖然我們需要武器；不是召喚我們?nèi)プ鲬?zhàn)，雖然我們嚴(yán)陣以待。它召喚我們?yōu)橛永杳鞫缲?fù)起漫長斗爭的重任，年復(fù)一年，從希望中得到歡樂，在磨難中保持耐性，對(duì)付人類共同的敵人——專制、貧窮、疾病和戰(zhàn)爭本身。

全世界的公民們，不要問美國將為你們做些什么，而要問我們共同能為人類的自由做些什么。最后，不論你們是美國公民還是其他國家的公民，你們應(yīng)要求我們獻(xiàn)出我們同樣要求于你們的高度的力量和犧牲。問心無愧是我們唯一可靠的獎(jiǎng)賞，歷史是我們行動(dòng)的最終裁判，讓我們走向前去，引導(dǎo)我們所熱愛的國家。我們祈求上帝的福佑和幫助，但我們知道，確切地說，上帝在塵世的工作必定是我們自己的工作。

比爾?蓋茨在北京微軟專業(yè)開發(fā)人員大會(huì)上的演講 December 1997 Beijing,China Good morning.It's a great pleasure to be here.Today is a major milestone [1] for Microsoft as our first Professional Developers Conference here in China.The key partnerships we build with software developers around the world are central not only to the success of Windows but also to realize the possibility that PC technology provides.It's through applications of every variety that businesses will be using the personal computer as the tool of the Information Age.It's rather amazing how fast this innovation [2] is moving.Even to keep the like of myself who are deeply involved in the industry to go and see the improvement and every element that are taking place on a yearly basis is quite fantastic.Of course one of the driving factors of this business is the exponential increase in processor performance.There is no doubt that the magic of chip capability has delivered through the advance in microprocessor allows us to think of application which never would have been possible before.The PC industry is one of the few industries that can deliver lower price equipment at the same time as improving the capabilities.The storage systems are now delivering Gigabyte of storage as the standard capability.Over 80 million of PCs are being sold a year.And the server market, the higher performance machines that these PCs networked with, are the fastest growing part of this business.The performance of those servers is increasing not only because the individual processors are faster, but also because we are using multiple-processor machines, so called SMP designs and clustering nodes together.Great chips, systems developers, partners who are sponsoring [3] this event, making this all possible.There is an incredible opportunity for developers.The applications that are written today will sell to an even larger base of machines out in the market.There is a lot that we're doing to increase the work of good developers-make sure they understand where the PC is going and how tools can help them now, more and more marketing type of activities making sure they got in with the customers.This is something that we are going to increase year after year.The overall [4] DNS message is one about helping developers seize that opportunity by bringing together the different architectures, making things automatic and allowing this to be done in an evolutionary fashion.I think it's a fantastic time to be developer and we appreciate being here and look forward to the opportunity to work with you more.Thank you.1997年12月11日，中國北京

早晨好。非常高興與大家共聚一堂。在這里舉行的微軟中國第一屆專業(yè)開發(fā)人員大會(huì)，是微軟公司的一個(gè)重要里程碑。我們與全球軟件開發(fā)人員建立的伙伴關(guān)系不僅是促成了Windows成功的關(guān)鍵，而且使PC技術(shù)提供的可能性成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。應(yīng)用程序貫穿各個(gè)領(lǐng)域，公司將使用個(gè)人計(jì)算機(jī)作為信息時(shí)代的工具。

這一變革的速度之快，令人眼花繚亂。即使象我這樣深入?yún)⑴c其中的人員，看到在一年基礎(chǔ)上發(fā)生的如此巨大的進(jìn)步預(yù)測一年后所發(fā)生的變化也是異想天開。當(dāng)然，處理器性能的巨大提高是這一商務(wù)領(lǐng)域的一個(gè)推動(dòng)因素。毫無疑問，芯片通過微處理器的進(jìn)步所提供的強(qiáng)大功能允許我們考慮過去根本沒有可能的應(yīng)用程序。

PC行業(yè)是能夠提供價(jià)格更低的設(shè)備并同時(shí)改進(jìn)功能性的少數(shù)幾個(gè)行業(yè)之一。存儲(chǔ)系統(tǒng)提供lGB存儲(chǔ)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)功能。全球每年售出8000多萬臺(tái)PC。在服務(wù)器市場中，令這些PC聯(lián)網(wǎng)的性能更高的機(jī)器是發(fā)展最快的部分。這些服務(wù)器的性能不斷提高，不僅是因?yàn)閱我惶幚砥魉俣雀?，還因?yàn)槲覀兪褂枚嗵幚砥鳈C(jī)器，也就是被稱為SMP設(shè)計(jì)并實(shí)現(xiàn)節(jié)點(diǎn)的集群化。

優(yōu)異的芯片、系統(tǒng)開發(fā)商以及資助這一活動(dòng)的合作伙伴將使所有這些成為可能。這是開發(fā)人員的一次極好機(jī)會(huì)。今天編寫的應(yīng)用程序?qū)⒃谑袌錾箱N售更多數(shù)量的機(jī)器。我們正在做許多工作來增加好的開發(fā)人員的工作，確保他們理解PC的走向、目前工具如何為他們提供幫助以及可使他們贏得客戶的越來越多的促銷活動(dòng)類型。這就是我們年復(fù)一年所增加的東西。

整個(gè)DNS信息的目的就是通過結(jié)合不同的體系結(jié)構(gòu)、實(shí)現(xiàn)任務(wù)自動(dòng)化以及允許以一種發(fā)展的方式完成這一工作，幫助開發(fā)人員抓住機(jī)會(huì)。我認(rèn)為，這是一個(gè)開發(fā)人員的時(shí)代，感謝您的光臨并希望有機(jī)會(huì)與您進(jìn)行更多的合作。謝謝！

第五篇：世界經(jīng)典英文演講100篇

Martin Luther King, Jr.: “I Have a Dream” delivered 28 August 1963, at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C.I am happy to join with you today in what will go down傳下去被接受 in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.Five score years ago一百年前, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.This momentous decree重要的發(fā)令 came as a great beacon light 航標(biāo)燈of hope to millions of Negro slaves, who had been seared 凋謝枯萎in the flames of withering injustice諷刺性的不公平.It came as a joyous（joy）daybreak 黎明破曉to end the long night of their captivity囚禁.一百多年前，一位偉大的美國人簽署了解放奴隸宣言。對(duì)于在諷刺性的不公平中調(diào)諧枯萎的億萬黑奴來說，這條重要的法令猶如他們的航標(biāo)燈。它想令人預(yù)約的破曉，結(jié)束了黑奴被囚禁的漫長黑夜。But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled使受殘，使受傷，by the manacles 鐐銬束縛of segregation種族隔離 and the chains of discrimination.One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity物質(zhì)繁榮.One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in因受苦憔悴 the corners of American society and finds himself 意識(shí)到an exile放逐，流放 in his own land.And so we've come here today to dramatize 將戲劇化a shameful condition.但是一百年后，黑人依舊并不自由。一百年后，黑人的生活依舊被種族隔離的鐐銬和歧視的枷鎖摧殘。一百年后，黑人依舊生活在一個(gè)物質(zhì)繁榮的廣闊海上的一個(gè)孤島上。一百年后，黑人依舊在美國社會(huì)的角落里受苦，并且意識(shí)到自己是故園的流浪者。所以，今天我們來到這里把這種令人羞愧的情形公布于眾。

In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check兌現(xiàn)支票.When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent高尚的宏偉的 words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence獨(dú)立宣言, they were signing a promissory note本票期票 to which every American was to fall heir繼承.This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable 不可剝奪的rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.It is obvious today that America has defaulted on 拖欠未出席this promissory note, insofar as在范圍內(nèi) her citizens of color are concerned.Instead of honoring 履行this sacred obligation義務(wù)債務(wù), America has given the Negro people a bad check空頭支票, a check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.資金不足” 事實(shí)上，我們來到我們國家的首都來兌現(xiàn)諾言。當(dāng)我們共和國的建設(shè)者簽署《獨(dú)立宣言》時(shí)，他們給每個(gè)美國人可以繼承的本期支票。這是一個(gè)保證所有人包括黑人和白人可以擁有生命的權(quán)力，自由和幸福追求的承諾。但是顯而易見就有色公民而言，美國并沒有履行這個(gè)承諾。美國并沒有履行這個(gè)神圣的諾言，而是開了一張空頭支票，支票上蓋著“資金不足”的戳子退了回來。

But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults 保管庫避難所of opportunity of this nation.And so we have come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon（on）demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.但是我們不相信正義銀行破產(chǎn)了，我們不相信在這個(gè)國家巨大的機(jī)會(huì)寶庫中沒有足夠的資金。今天我們來兌現(xiàn)支票，這張支票將給予我們寶貴的自由和公平保障。

We have also come to this hallowed神圣的 spot to remind America of the fierce 兇猛的urgency 緊急of Now.This is no time to engage in 從事經(jīng)營the luxury奢華奢侈 of cooling off冷靜冷處理 or to take the tranquilizing drug 鎮(zhèn)定性藥物of gradualism漸進(jìn)主義，按部就班主義.Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy民主.Now is the time to rise from從出來，由復(fù)活 the dark and desolate 荒涼的無人煙的valley of segregation種族隔離 to the sunlit陽光照射的 path of racial 種族justice.Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands流沙，危險(xiǎn)的陷阱 of racial injustice to the solid rock 堅(jiān)石of brotherhood手足情誼.Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.我們來到這里提醒美國人現(xiàn)在是非常緊急的時(shí)刻?，F(xiàn)在絕非奢談冷靜下來或者服用漸進(jìn)主義的鎮(zhèn)定性藥物的時(shí)候?，F(xiàn)在是兌現(xiàn)民主承諾的時(shí)候。現(xiàn)在是從黑暗和荒涼的種族隔離種族出來，走向種族公平的陽光大道的時(shí)候?，F(xiàn)在是把我們的國家從種族歧視的流沙中拯救出來，置于手足情誼的磐石上的時(shí)候?，F(xiàn)在是對(duì)上帝的所有孩子實(shí)現(xiàn)真正公平的時(shí)候。

It would be fatal for the nation to overlook 忽略the urgency of the moment.This sweltering 悶熱的，熱的難受的summer of the Negro's legitimate合法的，正當(dāng)?shù)?discontent不滿 will not pass until there is an invigorating 爽快的，精力充沛的autumn of freedom and equality平等.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end but a beginning.Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam 發(fā)脾氣，放出多余的蒸汽and will now be content will have a rude awakening猛然覺醒 if the nation returns to business as usual.There will be neither rest nor tranquility寧靜，平靜 in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.The whirlwinds旋風(fēng) of revolt 反抗will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges浮現(xiàn)，擺脫，暴露.我們的國家忽略這一緊急時(shí)刻是致命的。如果自由和平等的令人爽快的秋天沒到來，那么黑人正當(dāng)?shù)牟粷M的悶熱的夏天就不會(huì)過去。1963不是結(jié)束而是開始。如果國家毫無反應(yīng)，那些認(rèn)為黑人隨便發(fā)發(fā)脾氣就會(huì)滿意的人群將會(huì)猛然覺醒。在黑人沒有得到公民權(quán)利時(shí)，美國就不會(huì)安寧或者平靜。反抗的風(fēng)暴將會(huì)持續(xù)晃動(dòng)我們國家的根基，直到公平出現(xiàn)的那一天。But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold入口，門檻 which leads into the palace of justice.In the process of gaining our rightful合法的 place we must not be guilty of 對(duì)有罪惡感wrongful不合法的 deeds行為.Let us not seek to 試圖，設(shè)法satisfy our thirst for渴望熱望 freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness苦難 and hatred憎恨.We must ever conduct管理引導(dǎo) our struggle on掙扎下去 the high plane of dignity and discipline尊嚴(yán)和紀(jì)律.We must not allow our creative protest抗議 to degenerate into退化成 physical violence暴力.Again and again we must rise to the majestic 莊嚴(yán)的heights of meeting physical force with soul force精神力量.但是我必須告訴那些站在平等宮殿門口的人們。在我們得到合法地位的過程中，我們不必對(duì)不合法行為有罪惡感。我們不要通過苦難和憎恨來試圖滿足對(duì)自由的向往。我們斗爭時(shí)必須永遠(yuǎn)舉止得體，紀(jì)律嚴(yán)明。我們不能容許我們的具有嶄新內(nèi)容的抗議蛻變?yōu)楸┝π袆?dòng)。我們要不斷地升華到以精神力量對(duì)付物質(zhì)力量的崇高境界中去。

The marvelous非凡的驚人的 new militancy戰(zhàn)斗狀態(tài) which has engulfed 吞沒吞食the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with 與有密切聯(lián)系our destiny.And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably逃不掉的 bound to our freedom.We cannot walk alone.吞沒黑人團(tuán)體的驚人戰(zhàn)斗不能讓我們不信任所有的白人，今天來到這兒的我們大多數(shù)的白人兄弟，已經(jīng)意識(shí)到他們的命令同我們的命運(yùn)緊密聯(lián)系在一起。并且他們漸漸意識(shí)到他們的自由和我們的自由緊緊相連。我們不能單獨(dú)行走。

And as we walk, we must make the pledge誓言，許諾 that we shall always march ahead前進(jìn).We cannot turn back.There are those who are asking the devotees信徒愛好者 of civil rights公民權(quán)利, “When will you be satisfied?” We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable 無法形容的壞透的horrors 驚駭恐怖of police brutality警察野蠻行為.We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue疲勞疲乏 of travel, cannot gain lodging in寄宿固定在 the motels汽車旅館 of the highways and the hotels of the cities.We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.No, no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down滾下 like waters and righteousness正義正直 like a mighty強(qiáng)大的 stream溪流.就像我們說的那樣，我們?cè)S諾會(huì)一直前進(jìn)，我們不能回頭。總有一些人不斷地詢問公民權(quán)利的愛好者“你們什么時(shí)候會(huì)滿足”只要黑人還無法言語的壞透的警察暴力行為的受害者，我們就不會(huì)滿足。只要我們?cè)谄７Φ穆猛局袩o法寄宿在高速公路的汽車旅館或者城市的賓館，我們就不會(huì)滿足。只要任何一個(gè)黑人在密西西比無法投票或者任何一個(gè)黑人在紐約認(rèn)為自己沒有投票的資本，我們就不會(huì)滿足。不，不，我們不會(huì)滿足，直到正義像流水一樣洶涌而來，并且正直像強(qiáng)大的溪流一樣。

I am not unmindful漫不經(jīng)心的 that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations艱難困苦.Some of you have come fresh from剛從``````來 narrow jail cells.Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecutions迫害 and staggered蹣跚 by the winds of police brutality.You have been the veterans退伍軍人 of creative suffering受苦.Continue to work with the faith that unearned 不勞而獲的，不相稱的suffering is redemptive贖回的挽回的.Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums貧民區(qū) and ghettos 猶太區(qū)of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.Let us not wallow in 沉湎于the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.我并不不知道你們有些人從艱難困苦中來到這里。你們一些人剛從狹窄的監(jiān)獄中出來，你們一些人來自由于你們對(duì)自由的追求，而被卷進(jìn)由于警察暴力而引起的迫害與蹣跚中。你們飽經(jīng)風(fēng)霜，歷盡苦難。繼續(xù)努力吧，要相信：無辜受苦終得拯救。回到密西西比，回到阿拉巴馬，回到南卡羅，回到喬治，回到路易安納州，回到北部城市的貧民區(qū)和猶太區(qū)，明白有些情況將會(huì)改變。讓我們不要在沉湎于絕望，我今天告訴你，我的朋友們。雖然盡管我們今天和明天面臨著困難，但是我仍然有夢(mèng)，這是一個(gè)深深扎根于美國夢(mèng)的夢(mèng)想。

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.I have a dream today!I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification;one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.I have a dream today!I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and 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.This is our hope.This is the faith that I will go back to the South with.With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.And this will be the day, this will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning, “My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing.Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring!” And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.And so let freedom ring--from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.Let freedom ring--from the mighty mountains of New York.Let freedom ring--from the heightening Alleghenies of

Pennsylvania.Let freedom ring--from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.Let freedom ring--from the curvaceous slopes of California.But not only that.Let freedom ring--from Stone Mountain of Georgia.Let freedom ring--from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.Let freedom ring--from every hill and molehill of Mississippi，from every mountainside, let freedom ring!And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last, free at last.Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.”
