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枚舉。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,那炸葯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,不如說它們是橋梁!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?」

Smiling
I think smiling is as important as sunshine. Smiling is like sunshine because it can make people happy and have a good day. If you aren』t happy, you can smile, and then you will feel happy. Someone may say, 「But I don』t feel happy.」 Then I would say, 「Please smile as you do when you are happy or play with your friends happily. You will really be happy again.」
Smiling can let you have more friends.So I say, smiling is like a flower. It will give you happiness.
微笑
我認為微笑是一樣重要的象陽光。 微笑是象陽光,因為它可能使人愉快和有一個早晨好。 如果您不是愉快的,您能微笑,您然後將感覺愉快。 某人也許說, 「但是我不感到愉快」。 然後我會說, 「請微笑,您,當您愉快地是愉快或戲劇與您的朋友。 您真正地再將是愉快的」。
微笑可能讓您有更多朋友。如此我說,微笑是象花。 它將給您幸福。

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice--
有一天,你終於知道,
什麼是你必須得做,並開始去做,
雖然你周圍的聲音,
一直喊出,
其各種糟糕的建議——
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
「Mend my life!」
each voice cried.
But you didn』t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
雖然整個房子,

though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundation
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
雖然風用它僵硬的手指,
直往根基,
撬搗,
雖然它們的憂郁,

But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of cloud
and there was a new voice

recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do--
determined to save
the only life you could save.

伴你步步,
深入世途,
決心去做,
你唯一能做的事——
決定去拯救,
你唯一能拯救的生命。
㈣ 請推薦一些英語美文的書,最好是優美的散文
《最美的英文》不錯,我和我同學都看,基本符合你的要求。一般這類書在學校圖書館都能找到。 還有《牛津英語書蟲系列》是短篇小說,依難度而分,其實我個人覺得還是讀小說比較好,更能提高你的閱讀水平。
㈤ 每天閱讀一篇英語短文真的有用嗎
小妹妹,你提高英語水平的方法是很好的,閱讀是培養語感,增加詞專匯量的最好方法。屬但是有一點我要跟你說,我的很多老師和學姐都跟我說過,提高英語最好的方法是背誦短文。我建議你背新概念的書。第一冊比較基礎,看一看,讀一讀。你讀高中,主要背第二冊裡面的短文,學有餘力的情況下再背第三冊。這樣長時間堅持,有計劃有階梯地進行,你的英語水平一定會提高很多。僅僅讀是不夠的,要背才行,新概念的文章經典,短小,非常適合背誦。通過背,你積累了詞彙,練習了發音,語法語感也會增強,這無論對於應試還是應用都有很大的幫助。
㈥ 英語美文小短文欣賞
英語美文小短文是課堂英語學習的補充閱讀材料,能讓學生在課後自行閱讀和背誦,這樣有利於學生擴充課外知識,培養語感和興趣。這些英語短文往往都蘊含著積極向上的主題,使學生感受到英語的魅力和閱讀的快樂,從而激發對英語的學習興趣以及獲得情感上的升華。那麼,如何欣賞英語美文小短文呢?
一、英語美文小短文中的英語知識
英語美文的篇幅都是很短小精煉的,由學生所學過的基礎的短句、句子所構成,句式成分簡單清晰,易於學生的理解。當學生在閱讀英語美文的時候,可以一邊進行英語知識的復習,一邊進行英語知識的積累和延伸。經常會出現同一個知識點在課本中和在美文中的運用有所不同,這樣來說,十分有利於學生在學習英語時培養出舉一反三的發散性思維能力。
二、英語美文小短文中的寫作技巧
英語美文“麻雀雖小”,但是它的“五臟俱全”,小編這里指的就是英語美文的結構整體上是很完整的。短文的好處就是能夠把一篇陌生的英語文章的結構清晰地展現在學生的面前,不會因為篇幅過長而使得學生感到厭倦。文中的開頭、主要內容、結尾段落劃分十分清楚,即使是段落中間每一句話也是層層遞進,有邏輯關系的,而且寫作時運用的語法也很簡單、片語准確,為學生模仿練習英語寫作提供了模板和技巧,帶給學生寫作形式上的點撥。
三、英語美文小短文中的情感價值
英語美文的“美”表現在學生閱讀時所產生的審美、腦海中的形象美和情感上的熏陶等方面,這也是英語美文和其他英語材料所不同的地方。上述兩點側重的是英語美文對於學生的知識和技能上面的培養,它存在於學生學習中的最大價值就是美文對於學生情感態度和價值觀上的培養。學生在理解英語美文的基礎上,進行自我感知,形成自己的體會,受用於生活的方方面面。
英語美文小短文不僅可以使學生開闊視野,增長知識,培養良好的英語自學能力和閱讀能力,可以進一步鞏固課內學到的英語知識,提高學生的理解水平和體會到作文的魅力,受到一定程度的寫作能力熏陶。更重要的是讓孩子們進一步明白做人的道理,使學生能健康快樂地成長。

㈧ 英語勵志一句美文 越多越好謝謝
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 sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春意味著戰勝懦弱的那股大丈夫氣概和擯棄安逸的那種冒險精神。往往一個60歲的老者比一個20歲的青年更多一點這種勁頭。人老不僅僅是歲月流逝所致,更主要的是不思進取的結果。
Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to st.
光陰可以在顏面上留下印記,而熱情之火的熄滅則在心靈上刻下皺紋。煩惱、恐懼、缺乏自信會扭曲人的靈魂,並將青春化為灰燼。

Right Beside You 身邊總有你
The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the young woman with the white cane made her way1 carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and then, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, settled in to one. She placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, thirty-four, became blind. As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. All she had to cling to2 was her husband Mark.
Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he became determined to use every means possible to help his wife.
Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too frightened to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening until she got the hang of3 it. And that is exactly what happened.
For two weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to4 her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat.
Each morning they made the journey together, and Mark would take a taxi back to his office. Although that meant he had to travel through the city and the routine was costly and exhausting, Mark knew it was only a matter of① time before Susan would be able to ride the bus on her own. He believed in her.
Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. Monday morning arrived. Before she left, she embraced her husband tightly. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their separate ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and a wild gaiety5 took hold of Susan. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, 「Miss, I sure envy you.」 Curious, Susan asked the driver why.
「You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute6 and walks away. You are one lucky lady,」 the bus driver said.
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. She was so lucky for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe—the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.
當這個手持白杖的年輕女子小心翼翼地上車時,車上的乘客都向她投去憐憫的目光。她向司機付了車費之後,雙手摸索著座位,然後坐好,把公文包放在膝蓋上,手杖靠著腿。
34歲的蘇珊失明已有一年了。一起醫療事故奪去了她的視力,她頓時陷入黑暗之中,內心充滿憤怒、沮喪,還有顧影自憐,而她可以依靠的只有她的丈夫馬克了。
馬克是名空軍軍官,他深愛著蘇珊。蘇珊失明的頭些日子,他眼睜睜地看著妻子陷入絕望,心裡打定主意,要盡一切辦法幫助她。
蘇珊終於願意重返工作崗位了。可她怎麼去上班呢?以前都是乘公交車去的,但是她現在很害怕,自己一個人不敢在城裡轉。於是馬克自告奮勇早晚坐公車接送,直到她可以一個人應付。這就是事情的經過。
整整兩周,馬克每天都一身戎裝,陪著蘇珊一起上下班,教她怎麼憑借其他感官,尤其是聽覺,判斷她所處的位置,以及如何適應新的環境。他還幫她與司機交好,這樣司機能照顧她,並給她留個座位。
每天早上,他們都一起同行,然後馬克再乘計程車回去上班。盡管馬克得穿過整座城市,而且疲憊不堪,又花費不菲,但是他堅信蘇珊一定能獨立乘車的,只是時間問題。
最後,蘇珊決定自己獨自坐車上班。星期一上午,臨行前,她緊緊地擁抱著自己的丈夫,眼裡蓄滿了感激的淚水,感謝他的忠誠,他的耐心,還有他的愛。她向他道了別,他們第一次朝著不同的方向走去。周一、周二、周三、周四……每天她的獨行之旅都很順利,蘇珊感到一陣狂喜。她成功了!她真的能一個人去上班了!
周五早上,蘇珊照常乘公共汽車去上班。就要下車了,司機說:「小姐,我真羨慕你啊。」蘇珊感到很奇怪,便問司機為什麼。
「是這樣的,上星期,每天早上都有一個儀表堂堂穿著軍裝的男士一直站在拐彎處看著你下車,看著你安全地穿過街道,又看著你走進辦公樓,他向你飛一個吻,沖你行個禮,然後才動身離去。你真是個幸運的姑娘啊!」 司機說。
蘇珊的臉上流下幸福的淚水。她是幸運的,因為馬克給了她比視力更珍貴的禮物,一份她不需要看就能體會到的禮物——這就是愛的禮物,它能給黑暗帶來光明。

A woman baked chapatti for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: 「The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!」
一個女人給家人烤薄餅,還留出一個給飢腸轆轆的路人。她總是把留出的那個放在窗檯上,每天都有一個駝背的人來拿走薄餅。他沒說過一句「謝謝」,反而總是邊走邊咕噥著:「善有善報,惡有惡報!」
The woman felt irritated. 「Not a word of gratitude,」 she said to herself… 「Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?」 One day, she decided to do away with him. She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him!
女人很生氣,她自言自語地說:「這個駝背人從沒說過謝謝,卻每天都重復這句話,是什麼意思呀?」一天,她決定弄死他,就在為他准備的薄餅上下了毒。
