英语短篇演讲作文(1)
Good afternoon ，ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! my topic is Opportunities and Challenges。
First， I would like to know， what does your destiny offer you? Happiness， wisdom， a strong body or something else。 If I had asked this question to president Nixon， he would probably had said，”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair， but the chalice of opportunity。”
Needless to say， one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 20_ Olympic Games。 Till now， we have used two sevenths of the preparation time。 How much changes have you seen? New roads， new subway lines， public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors， large blocks of grass fields， and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction。
Other than those， there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly。 For example， more and more people will get to know China。 I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly。 And the games will also do good to the economy and environment， for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened。 What is more， Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit。 Now that we have seen so many advances， could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China。 But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question， ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”
For us， I mean the Chinese youth， 20_ Olympic Games is a tremendous gift。 Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us 。The society is just like a ship， and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is， but we have never heard of it in our true life。 This morning， however， when we wake up， we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand。 After chewing， most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games。 And mine is to be a “forter” ----that is someone who will give fort to others。
At the end of my speech， I hope all the preparation will go well， and everyone will show their ability to the world。 Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges。

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 e 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 es， can spring be far behind?” Thank you!

On New Year's Eve， our class had a party。 The atmosphere was good。 It was out of the ordinary from the very begining。 The boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance。 We saw a boy named Li Xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap。 Then with three resounding crow of a cock echoing in the hall， the hall was again brightly lit in a snap。
Then， the representative of the bedroom Zhu Guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation。 He added that Li Xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken。 They left us all in confusion。 And it was our monitor who was quickwitted。 He shouted our， “The day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn。” The hall After that， they had another item。
This time Li Xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle。 While he was standing there， the other three stood around him， each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees。 It was an idiom。 This time I got it right:“The dog stands out among a group of chickens。”
Then we all sang and played games until it was eleven o'clock at night。 The old man on night watch came to turn off the lights。 We had to tear ourselves away from the party。
From this activity， I discovered that many of our classmates are really talented singers。
