i have been in university for about one year. during my stay here, i came to realize that university life is like drinking coke. we experience all tastes of life here, sour, sweet, bitter and hot.
i am from province, which is far away from here. i often miss my mum, friends, and relatives in my hometown. however, i can't see them very often. so loneliness always keeps me company. i am sad that i can't be there with them.
lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. with more free time,we can do many more things besides study, such as joining societies clubs, and taking part-time jobs. such activities not only make our life more colorful, but also help us improve all kinds of skills. the university is a society miniature, what we learn here will benefit our future life.
our path in life will not always be smooth. setbacks can't be avoided. failing an important exam, break up with boy or girl friend, or refused by a promising company, such setbacks are likely to get us down. sometimes we fell so frustrated that we even burst into tears.
drinkin coke is wonderful, despite the undesirble consequent hiccups. it's bitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. and you'll even feel excited after gulping down a glass. a college experience is part of growing up. we cry, smile, fall in love, get hurt, leave, learn and then we become a better person.
university life is like drinking coke. i'm experiencing it. and i know, i enjoy it!
我在大學已經(jīng)大約一年。在我留在這里,我才意識到大學生活就像喝可樂。我們體驗生活的味道,酸、甜、苦、辣。
我來自省,離這里很遠。我經(jīng)常想念我的媽媽,朋友,親戚在我的家鄉(xiāng)。然而,我不能經(jīng)�？吹剿麄�。所以孤獨總是使我公司。我很傷心,我不能和他們在一起。
幸運的是,大學的生活是豐富多彩的。有更多的自由時間,我們可以做更多的事情除了學習,如加入社會俱樂部,和兼職工作。這樣的活動不僅使我們的生活更加豐富多彩,但也幫助我們提高各種技能。大學是一個小型社會,我們在這里學習將有利于我們未來的生活。
我們的人生道路并不總是一帆風順。挫折無法避免。失敗的一個重要的考試,跟男孩還是女孩分手的朋友,或者拒絕由一個有前途的.公司,這樣的挫折會讓我們失望。有時我們下降如此沮喪,我們甚至大哭起來。
喝可樂是美好的,盡管undesirble隨之打嗝。它是苦的,酸的,辛辣的,但也甜。你甚至會吞吃玻璃后感到興奮。大學經(jīng)歷是成長的一部分。我們哭泣,微笑,墜入愛河,受傷,離開,學習,然后成為一個更好的人。
大學生活就像喝可樂。我正在經(jīng)歷它。我知道,我喜歡它!

Good morning boys and girls,
It’s a great pleasure for me/It’s nice to to give you a speech here. Nowadays mastering a foreign language is very helpful in our daily life. I feel it a great honor to share my opinions about English learning with you. Firstly, I believe it is useful to remember as many sentence patterns as possible. Secondly, we should try our best to read more English newspapers and magazines after class, which helps to improve our reading abilities. Besides, TV programmes are of great help to us. Last but not least, it’s necessary for us to communicate with foreign friends as much as possible and increase our awareness of foreign cultures, which can also help to improve our English. However, sometimes I find it difficult to pronounce some English words correctly. I would appreciate it if someone could give me some advice. Thanks for your attention
That's all my speech,thank you.

since the quality of honesty applies to all behaviors, one cannot refuse to consider factual information, for e_ample, in an unbiased manner and still claim that one's knowledge, belief or position is an attempt to be truthful. such a belief is clearly a product of one's desires and simply has nothing to do with the human ability to know. basing one's positions on what one wants — rather than unbiased evidence gathering — is dishonest even when good intentions can be cited — after all even hitler could cite good intentions and intended glory for a select group of people. clearly then, an unbiased approach to the truth is a requirement of honesty.
because intentions are closely related to fairness and certainly affect the degree of honesty/dishonesty, there is a wide spread confusion about honesty--and a general belief that being dishonest means that one always correctly understands if their behavior is either honest or dishonest. self-perception of our morality is non-static and volatile. it's often at the moment we refuse to consider other perspectives that there is a clear indication we are not pursuing the truth, rather than simply and e_clusively at the moment we can muster up evidence that we are right. socrates had much to say about truth, honesty and morality, and e_plained that if people really understood that their behavior was wrong — then they simply wouldn't do it — by definition. unfortunately, honesty in the western tradition has been marginalized to specific instances — perhaps because a thorough understanding of honesty collides with ideologies of all types. ideologies and idealism often e_aggerate and suppress evidence in order to support their perspectives — at the e_pense of the truth. this process erodes the practice and understanding of honesty. to an ideologist the truth quite often becomes insignificant, what matters most are their ideals and what ever supports their desires to enjoy and spread those ideals.
human beings are inherently biased about what they believe to be good due to individual tastes & backgrounds, but once one understands that a decidedly biased approach to what is true — is inherently dishonest, one can also understand how idealism and ideology have poorly served the quest for an honest, moral society. both honesty and morality require that we base our opinions about what is good — upon unbiased ideas of what is true — rather than vice versa (determining what is true based on what we feel is good) — the way all ideologies would have us believe.

internet civilizationgood afternoon, ladies and gentleman! first i want to say is that i’m very proud of to be invited to to present my topic here, which is “ internet civilization”.before i begin my topic, please allow me to ask you a question: every time you click the mouse to surf the web, do you know what does it mean?on the net, you can make friends overseas and call them with ip phones; you can get information from all over the world; you can even give a hand to some people in troubles and get help when in need.however, we have to admit that internet also leads to intimacy before acquaintance; it scatters secrets outwards, not inwards; and, most worrying of all, it is a vehicle for liars.here we should see, there exists good and evil, right and wrong on the web.
as netizens, we’d better grow to realize the importance of internet civilization.just as the famous saying goes “l(fā)ong and steep is the path to virtue.” many people advocate that we should be sincere, honest and responsible in our society—the real world.
now, what i want to add is that we also should obey the primary moral principles in this virtual world.all of my dear friends here, on the internet, which role did you play? which role are you playing? and which role will you play?
thank you very much!

i've had an interesting experience. i'm an entrepreneur, having started my own business, also worked in the context of a family business that was highly entrepreneurial.i've had both, working in a large family business, that grew to be arather large business. i think for me, one of the challenges wasmanaging the competing demands of raising a family and, and running a business, working in a family business. and then politics got layered on top of that. then i got pregnant with my thirdchild in the midst of that. one of the things, there is no right answer. people ask about balance a lot. i don't think you can plan for balance. you can structure your schedule to avoid worktravel, coming home and having an event or you have to be can manage things like that. we are one kid illness away from losing balance. there's no way you can plan for certain things. i have found every time i think a challenge is large and will behard to overcome that has been put in my path, if you grindthrough it, you look back in retrospect and it feels much more manageable than it was in the moment. this perspective, staying in the moment, keeping a laser focus on what your priorities are. i tell people not to architect their life for balance, but aligned with what their priorities are. and fully measure yourself againstpriorities to ensure you are where you needed to be in the long term. give yourself a little slack in the short term. i will say as anadministration, we are focused on thinking about how weempower the american working family and empower people to achieve a balance through policies around making child caremore affordable and accessible, advocating strongly for paid family leave. to support the reality of of the dual income modernworking family. thinking through policies that support the family is informed by what i have seen and what i have witnessed.

Speaking of reading，many people are excited because reading brings themboth knowledge and entertainment。 By reading，we can learn lots of informationand know our history。 But for some people，reading is not their priority。 Theywill choose to watch movies to have fun。 However，I think people can benefit alot by reading。
First of all，reading can let us know what have happened in history。 Sincehistory is recorded in books，if we read books，then we can not only what havehappened in history but also we can better understand the great figures of theage。
Secondly，reading can enrich our knowledge。 By reading，we can knowdifferent kinds of things，how things happen and how to avoid bad things fromhappening。 Books record a wide range of things about life。 Through reading，wecan know various aspects of life。
Thirdly，reading teaches us skills。 There are so many books about how tolearn a certain language，how to get a good job，how to bee popular in yourcircle，how to cook and so on。 Thus，these kinds of books can make us moreskillful if we do a certain thing。
All in all，we can find lots of benefits through reading。

Dear teacher and CLASSmates:
I am very glad to make a speech here in this CLASS again! This time, I'd like to talk something about English.
I love English. English language is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. Learning English makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
When I was seven, my mother sent me to an English school. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, because the president Washington is my idol. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and Anshan.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English

The Real Persuasive Speech ·Edward M. Kennedy：Chappaquiddick ·
To use the vivid example to wake up the conscience in peoples hearts.To love nature is to love our mankind.
As the new generation who enter the new century, we should make efforts to love and respect nature, to treat it well and protect it.
Only in this way can we have a beautiful nature to enjoy it!Thank you. it is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty.
everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
today in china,with the rising of our living standard, peoples requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly.
some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks.
but it seems to me,all these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
in my opinion,we shouldnt only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty.
as we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more important.
this was confirmed by a famous russian writer in words much like this: a person is not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely.
here, id like to quote two typical instances and im sure, my dear friends,from them youll find out what real beauty is.
recently i learned from the radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer.
she is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song.devotion of love.
not long ago,she was invited to zhejiang province to give performance.
the moment she was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward.
worse still,after her request was satisfied, she didnt begin to sing at once.
instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece.
thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour.
so when she at last showed up and started to sing devotion of love,a man rose up from his seat and shouted at her,you dont have any devotion of love.
you are not qualified to sing this song ! hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man.
at this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.
how disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this! it is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.
now, im coming to another true story.
its about a poor, ordinary looking old woman.
she was a widow without any children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps.
however,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up.
every day she labored from morning till night.
in order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood.
she got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
when asked why she chose to burden herself with so many children,she smiled and simply answered,oh,i love children and i like to have their company.
though the old woman was poor materially, she was full of affection and rich in spirit.
she was loved dearly by her children.
she was also highly appreciated by the local government, and truly respected by people in her community.
maybe you cant help wondering, what makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary? it is nothing else but her inner beauty, her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding.
what a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer]
so,to answer the question what is real beauty?, i declare definitely,it is the beauty lying in ones heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deeds,that is,the inner heauty! hello, boys and girls.
my name is shen huiyao.
i’m a girl and i’m a student.
i’m from qianjia wan.
i like yellow, because i like banana.
my favorite food is eggs.
i like chinese, because i think mr.
fan is a good chinese teacher.
and i like miss zhou, too.shy: look, this is my family photo.
who’s this woman?s1: is she your mother?shy: yes, she’s my mother.
and who’s this man?s2: is he your father?shy: yes.
he’s my father.
then who’s this man? he’s a old man.s3: is he your grandfather?shy: yes, he’s my grandfather.
and this is my uncle.
who’s this girl? ha, ha, it’s me.my mother is beautiful.
my father is cool.
i love my father.
i love my mother.
and they love me.
my grandfather is kind.
kind means
my grandfather is very very kind.
i love my grandfather, too.my speech is over.
thank you everyone, goodbye!

英語演講稿15
Mr. Chairman, Senator Thurmond, members of the committee, my name is Anita F. Hill, and I am a professor of law at the University of Oklahoma. I was born on a farm in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, in 1956. I am the youngest of 13 children. I had my early education in Okmulgee County. My father, Albert Hill, is a farmer in that area. My mother's name is Irma Hill. She is also a farmer and a housewife.
My childhood was one of a lot of hard work and not much money, but it was one of solid family affection, as represented by my parents. I was reared in a religious atmosphere in the Baptist faith, and I have been a member of the Antioch Baptist Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, since 1983. It is a very warm part of my life at the present time.
For my undergraduate work, I went to Oklahoma State University and graduated from there in 1977. I am attaching to this statement a copy of my resume for further details of my education.
I graduated from the university with academic honors and proceeded to the Yale Law School, where I received my JD degree in 1980. Upon graduation from law school, I became a practicing lawyer with the Washington, DC, firm of Ward, Hardraker, and Ross.
In 1981, I was introduced to now Judge Thomas by a mutual friend. Judge Thomas told me that he was anticipating a political appointment, and he asked if I would be interested in working with him. He was, in fact, appointed as Assistant Secretary of Education for Civil Rights. After he had taken that post, he asked if I would become his assistant, and I accepted that position.
In my early period there, I had two major projects. The first was an article I wrote for Judge Thomas' signature on the education of minority students. The second was the organization of a seminar on high-risk students which was abandoned because Judge Thomas transferred to the EEOC where he became the chairman of that office.
During this period at the Department of Education, my working relationship with Judge Thomas was positive. I had a good deal of responsibility and independence. I thought he respected my work and that he trusted my judgment. After approximately three months of working there, he asked me to go out socially with him.
What happened next and telling the world about it are the two most difficult things -- experiences of my life. It is only after a great deal of agonizing consideration and sleepless number -- a great number of sleepless nights that I am able to talk of these unpleasant matters to anyone but my close friends.
I declined the invitation to go out socially with him and explained to him that I thought it would jeopardize what at the time I considered to be a very good working relationship. I had a normal social life with other men outside of the office. I believed then, as now, that having a social relationship with a person who was supervising my work would be ill-advised. I was very uncomfortable with the idea and told him so.
I thought that by saying no and explaining my reasons my employer would abandon his social suggestions. However, to my regret, in the following few weeks, he continued to ask me out on several occasions. He pressed me to justify my reasons for saying no to him. These incidents took place in his office or mine. They were in the form of private conversations which would not have been overheard by anyone else.
My working relationship became even more strained when Judge Thomas began to use work situations to discuss sex. On these occasions, he would call me into his office for reports on education issues and projects, or he might suggest that, because of the time pressures of his schedule, we go to lunch to a government cafeteria. After a brief discussion of work, he would turn the conversation to a discussion of sexual matters.
His conversations were very vivid. He spoke about acts that he had seen in pornographic films involving such matters as women having sex with animals and films showing group sex or rape scenes. He talked about pornographic materials depicting individuals with large penises or large breasts involved in various sex acts. On several occasions, Thomas told me graphically of his own sexual prowess.
Because I was extremely uncomfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, I told him that I did not want to talk about these subjects. I would also try to change the subject to education matters or to nonsexual personal matters such as his background or his beliefs. My efforts to change the subject were rarely successful.
Throughout the period of these conversations, he also from time to time asked me for social engagements. My reaction to these conversations was to avoid them by eliminating opportunities for us to engage in extended conversations. This was difficult because at the time I was his only assistant at the Office of Education -- or Office for Civil Rights.
During the latter part of my time at the Department of Education, the social pressures and any conversation of his offensive behavior ended. I began both to believe and hope that our working relationship could be a proper, cordial, and professional one.
When Judge Thomas was made chair of the EEOC, I needed to face the question of whether to go with him. I was asked to do so, and I did. The work itself was interesting, and at that time it appeared that the sexual overtures which had so troubled me had ended. I also faced the realistic fact that I had no alternative job. While I might have gone back to private practice, perhaps in my old firm or at another, I was dedicated to civil rights work, and my first choice was to be in that field. Moreover, the Department of Education itself was a dubious venture. President Reagan was seeking to abolish the entire department.
For my first months at the EEOC, where I continued to be an assistant to Judge Thomas, there were no sexual conversations or overtures. However, during the fall and winter of 1982, these began again. The comments were random and ranged from pressing me about why I didn't go out with him to remarks about my personal appearance. I remember his saying that some day I would have to tell him the real reason that I wouldn't go out with him.
