經(jīng)典2分鐘英語演講稿:人生、幸福
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(zhēng)!

片段2:
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(rùn)。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。
help:
stimulation: n.激勵(lì),刺激
evanescent: adj.漸漸消失的,易消散的
profit:vi.得益,利用
I believe in our future
Honorable Judges fellow students:
Good afternoon Recently ther is a heated debate in our society.The college students are thebeneficiaries of a rare privilege who receive exceptional education atextraordinary places.But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselvesagainst all odds Will we be able to better the lives of others Will we be ableto accept the responsibility of building the future of our country The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation whichwould cringe at the slightest discomfort.But the cynics are wrong.The collegestudents I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently.We help eachother clean the dormitory go shopping and bargain together and take part timejobs to supplement our pocket money.The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades and we neglect the needfor character cultivation.But again the cynics are wrong.We care deeply for eachother we cherish freedom we treasure justice and we seek truth.Last weekthousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make acontribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.As college students we are adolescents at the critical turning point in ourlives.We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith each will profoundlyimpact our future or even the future of our country.I believe in all my fellowclassmates.Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish.Ibelieve that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on ourresponsibilities.We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks andto use the education we have received to make our world a better place.I believein our future.我對(duì)未來充滿信心
尊敬的評(píng)委,各位同學(xué):
下午好!最近,社會(huì)上有一場(chǎng)很激烈的爭(zhēng)論。大學(xué)生是一種稀有特權(quán)的享有者,在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是,我們能面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)而無所畏懼嗎?我們能夠改善他人的生活嗎?我們能夠承擔(dān)建設(shè)祖國未來的重任嗎? 懷疑論者說大學(xué)生是被寵壞的一代,一丁點(diǎn)挫折都受不了。但是他們錯(cuò)了,我所看到的大學(xué)生正在努力的學(xué)習(xí)獨(dú)立生活。我們互相幫助打掃衛(wèi)生,一起上街砍價(jià)購物,一起參加兼職工作來賺零花錢。懷疑論者說我們除了成績(jī)什么都不關(guān)心,從而忽略了性格的培養(yǎng)。但是,他們又錯(cuò)了。我們彼此關(guān)心,我們向往自由,我們珍惜公正,我們追求真理。上個(gè)星期,很多我的同學(xué)去驗(yàn)血,為了給患血癌的孩子貢獻(xiàn)自己的力量。作為大學(xué)生,我們是處在人生分水嶺的青年。我們都面臨一個(gè)重要的選擇:懷疑人生還是相信自己,每一種都會(huì)給我們的人生帶來重大的影響,甚至影響我們祖國的未來。我相信我們的同學(xué)們,雖然我們依然缺乏經(jīng)驗(yàn),甚至有些志氣,但是我相信我們有勇氣和自信來面對(duì)生活的挑戰(zhàn)并承擔(dān)我們的責(zé)任。我們正努力準(zhǔn)備接受新的任務(wù),用我們所學(xué)習(xí)的知識(shí)將世界變得更美好。我對(duì)我們的未來充滿信心。
