英語的即興演講1

Good afternoon, honorable judges, dear teachers & friends.

英語的即興演講(集錦15篇)

I'm Lai Senhan from the University of International Business & Economics. Do you know what date is it today? Today is the Olympic Date. I'm so glad to stand here today to share my idea about Beijing Olympic Games together with you all. The title of my speech is: what can we do for Beijing Olympic Games?

First of all, let me tell you a story that happened 2 years ago. At the end of August, 20xx, when I decided to come to Beijing for study, my friends hel* * **rewell Party for me. They said: after your graduation, you should look for a job in Beijing, and then in 20xx, we shall go to visit you during the Olympic Games. I laughed and answered: OK, no problem!

Time flied and 2 years passed. Now I am a graduate. My teachers and classmates always ask me: what's your plan after your graduation? Go back home, stay in Beijing, or go to some other places? And I always answer: I will stay in Beijing. I make this decision not because of my promise to my friends 2 years ago, but because: I've fallen in love with Beijing! I'm eager to welcome the coming Olympic Games together with my fellow countrymen, and I wish I could do something for the Olympics & for the city.

As we know, Beijing will host the 29th Summer Olympic Games in 20xx. As a Chinese, I think many people are thinking: what we can do for Beijing Olympic Games. Most of us are not athletes, we cannot take part in competitions directly; we are not officials either, we don't need to do the preparatory work. We are only ordinary people, what we can do!

There are still so many things we can do! For example, for me, I am a graduate majoring Business English. As far as I am concerned, I will keep on learning English hard, and apply for being a volunteer. I will use English to serve the Games together with other volunteers. And also, as a businessman at that time, I will avail myself of the great commercial opportunities that the Olympics brings to us, make more efforts to offer my contribution to the growth of our national economy.

And for all of us, with the goal to host a "Green Olympics", we shall plant more trees, grass & flowers. Don't waste water. In order to alleviate the problems of air pollution & traffic congestions, we shall take buses & subways more. With the goal to host a "People's Olympics", and in order to make our Olympics more attractive and to make our Beijing more beautiful, we shall help everyone we meet who needs help, we shall abide by traffic rules, don't smoke in public and no spitting. The most important way for our Chinese to support our Beijing Olympic Games, in my opinion, is to work hard on our duties.

Thank you everyone!

the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?

kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.

they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.

i love beijing and hennan opera because it always reminds me of who i am. but i am also a fan of pop music, especially english songs. so i have combined eastern melody with western language. it is called western henna opera.

asking the devotees of civil rights, "when will you be satisfied?" 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 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 righteousnelike a mighty stream.

when two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other. when this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the customs of another culture. then there are certain things some people may not like. to this, i will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it. to learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge.

before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures. at present, they may run in different courses. but eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.

right now, i can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow! thank you!

An old man fishing in the river, a child came to see him fishing, skilled people, so not long to catch a full basket of fish, the old man is a lovely child, take the whole basket of fish to him, the child shook his head, the man asked in surprise: "why don't you?" the little boy answer: "I want your fishing rod." the old man asked: "what are you doing fishing?" he said: "this fish did not take long to finish, if I have a fishing rod, I can catch on, life could not finish eating."

I think you will say: what a clever kid. If he was wrong, as long as the fishing rod, that he can not eat a fish. Because he did not understand the skills of fishing, fishing rod is light there is no use, because the fishing was not important "fishing rod" and "fishing technology."

There are too many people think they have a life of the rod, and no fear in the rain, this will inevitably fall on the muddy ground. As the kids see the elderly, think that as long as the poles will not eat fish, the staff look like the boss, as long as they sit in the Office, there are rolled into the financing.

Life is a box of chocolateyou never know what you will get.

Forrest Gump made no decision by and for himself but he accomplished great success with his strong will in the process. The process is not the road itself but the attitudes and feelings the caution courage and persistance we have as we encounter new experience and unexpected obstacles.

Take myself as an example I changed my major when I became a postgraduate. After the choicedays have been harsh for me.I cannot understand the new lessons at all. For they are closely related to mathmatics which I learned nothing about before.

However wuth the belief that this is the great chance for me to experience new ideas and challenge myselfI persisted. I asked for helpfromevery channel and reorgonized my life. Gradually I could understand some parts and even found maths over I learned to act instead of complaining.

In retrospectthe choice left no trace in my mind but the happiness and bitterness of the past four months becomes an unforgetable experience in my life.

my definition of success

today i am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. what is success? it is what everyone is longing times success would be rather simple. winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; making a new friend is success; even now i am

standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.

however, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very

complicated. is fortune success? is fame success? is high social status success? no, i don’t think so. i believe success is the realization of people’

s hopes and days, in the modern society there are many people

who are regarded as the successful. and the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. so most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. but the problem is wether it is real success. we all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. if we keep chasing them, where is the end? what will satisfy us at last? therefore, we can see, to get the real success we must need something inside, which is the realization of

題目:the next twenty years from now on, students will not use printed books any more.

I don't think so. printed books won't be abandoned in such a short time. I admit that new technology is developing fast. Many advanced electronic products are gradually take the place of traditional tools. Just like in university, teachers like to use multimedia in class for it is quite convenient and efficient. However, for our student, it is not realistic to study completely by electronic products. There are many things need to recorded on books. Books are something meaningful and practical. I should say, in our country, printed books wouldn't be abandoned within 20 years at least for two reasons. Firstly, books are classical container of knowledge. They accompany human to advance. A student without books could be someway ridiculous. Secondly, our country haven't developed so strong to make every student study by computer or other forms of electronic tools. And even after 20 years, the possibility is also very small. I also think it is unnecessary because books are cheap but useful and still meaningful.

the duality of money has been puzzling people since its first appearante. on the one hand, clean money can sweeten your life, help you succeed and be your lifelong faithful companion. on the other hand, dirty money may posion your mind, ruin your happiness and discard you suddenly as a false friend.

the market economy tells us that everyone should earn a living by selling something. professors sell their knowledge, workers sell their labor, farmers sell their produce. money now appears more powerful than anything else and drives people crazy. the temptation of money often challenges one's honor. we are not ashamed to make more money to have a better life by our sweat. however,there is a widespread concern that millionaires become the heroes no matter whether they make any contribution to our society.

some people try desperately to make big money, which, more often than not, end up with degradation, corruption and crime.

though money is indispensable to our life, dirty money may drag us into hell. there are many things no money can buy. we will keep our honor intact at any cost because it is our soul. love of money is the root of all evil. for myself, i would rather die than dishonor myself for money.

英語即興演講是一種快速思考的過程,其中即興和英語演講是根據周圍環境進行的,沒有任何準備。以下是3分鐘大學生英語即興演講三篇彙編,希望對你有所幫助。

大學生英語即興演講3分鐘1中日問題一直是一個敏感話題,一個導火索,可以引發一系列爆炸。一些所謂的愛國者認為購買國內產品是愛國主義,並宣稱特別是所有中國人都應該拒絕標有“日本製造。

比較偏激的可能會砸或者搶一家賣日本產品的店,或者在大街上燒任何一輛日本車,不管是誰的。

那麼,發動一場對日戰爭,這樣我們就可以消滅那個侵略我們祖國的惡毒的令人作嘔的民族,然後肆無忌憚地否認白紙黑字寫下的歷史,怎麼樣?

如果一個人,一方面是徹頭徹尾的愛國者,如果日本敢對中國發動戰爭(如果可能的話),願意為國犧牲生命,而另一方面又是日本文化禿鷹呢?

暴民砸的店是一個勤勞的中國商人開的怎麼辦?他們犯了罪嗎?羣眾只是在發泄因現實中駭人聽聞的不公平而日益積累的不滿嗎?

是不是我們只是把日本或者國際貿易作為一個出口?

愛國不是民族主義熱,不是激烈的民族情緒。我們需要冷靜下來,區分民族狂熱和適度清醒的愛國主義。

此外,忽視真正的問題總是有危險的,如政治腐敗、學術剽竊、教育不公平和社會階層分化,這些問題迫切需要我們的關注,應該是我們的優先事項。

用最響亮的聲音呼喚的,通常是最缺乏的。電影中的漫談怒吼“第一滴血”-我為我的國家做了一切,我的國家為我做了什麼?!如今,我們迫切需要一個肯尼迪的重寫版本。中國有句名言“不僅要問你能為你的國家做些什麼,還要問你的國家能為你做些什麼。”

大學生即興英語演講3分鐘2我們與生活節奏的合拍程度如何?在我們忙碌的日常生活中,我們不。不要經常停下來問自己這個問題。至少我沒有。但事實並非如此。直到我參加了一項競技體育賽事,我才學到了最重要的一課& ndash為了成功,我們必須讓我們的思想與事物的自然規律相協調。

讓我告訴你發生了什麼。去年我決定在我的家鄉參加一場國際馬拉松賽。作為一個雄心勃勃的人,我希望在和我一起訓練過的朋友的陪同下,在5小時內完成它。大日子終於到了。“ready …set …bang ”我們離開了。

起初,我們保持着快速的步伐,不停地奔跑。以這樣的速度,我們在兩小時內跑完了前20公里,我認為跑馬拉松是小菜一碟。然後我的競選夥伴開始放慢速度。我敦促他繼續以同樣的速度跑步,但他説不,他想保存體力。我覺得我和一個錯誤的人搭檔了,因此,我向前衝刺,把他拋在了後面。

幾公里後,我開始理解他的策略,因為我的速度慢下來,先是慢跑,然後是散步。從那以後,我再也走不動了。隨着越來越多的人從我身邊跑過,我感到很丟臉。我不止一次想過“也許我應該退出。”我開始懷疑自己完成這場比賽的能力。

這時,我的`競選夥伴追上了我,在我背上拍了一下。“跟我來。他喊道。他已經平衡了馬拉松的配速,並鼓勵我也這樣做。在接下來的激烈比賽中,我們步行、慢跑、跑了幾英里,然後又走了一遍。慢慢地,痛苦地,但希望這一次,我們在我們身體能力的自然流動中建立了最合適的速度。

最終,我們在4個半小時內完成了第一次42公里的馬拉松。我問自己,這場馬拉松對我來説意味着什麼?我的馬拉松經歷成了我生活中一個有影響力的隱喻,關於我們必須學會如何在每件事情上調整自己的節奏,通過與生活的節奏保持一致。

就像潮起潮落一樣,我們必須聽取建議,但要做出自己的決定。就像黎明和黃昏的表演一樣,我們必須學會平衡驕傲和謙虛。從風既能呼喊又能低語的方式中,我們必須學會何時變得強大,何時變得温柔,因為萬物都有自己的節奏和陰陽元素。正是這些互補的極端的相互作用產生了和諧,正如老子所説,極端相遇。自從馬拉松比賽以來,這種兩種對立力量協同工作的想法可以説是我的跑步夥伴。陰陽無處不在,不斷地相互作用,永遠不會以絕對的狀態存在。

女士們,先生們,生活就像跑馬拉松,讓我們發現、定義和發展一種自然的生活節奏,以實現和諧與成功。

謝謝大家的傾聽。

大學生即興英語演講3分鐘3大家早上好,請注意。我很高興能夠在這個教室裏講課。這一次,我想談談英語。我的談話主題是我愛英語。

眾所周知,今天英語非常重要。世界各地都在使用它。它已經成為互聯網和國際貿易中最常用的語言。如果我們能説英語,我們將有更多的機會成功。因為越來越多的人注意到了這一點,所以去學英語的人數以高速增長。

但是對我自己來説,我學習英語不僅僅是因為它的重要性和實用性,還因為我對它的熱愛。當我學習英語時,我能感受到一種不同的思維方式,這給了我更多接觸世界的空間。當我讀英語小説時,我可以從書中感受到不同於閲讀翻譯的樂趣。當我説英語時,我可以從我的話語中感受到自信。當我寫英語時,我可以看到與我們中國不同的美。

我喜歡英語,它給了我一個多彩的夢。我希望有一天我能環遊世界。憑藉我良好的英語,我可以和許多來自不同國家的人交朋友。我可以看到許多名勝古蹟。我夢想我能去倫敦,因為它是英語的發源地。

我也想用我良好的英語向説英語的人介紹我們偉大的地方,我希望他們能像我們一樣熱愛我們的國家。

我知道,羅馬不是一天建成的。我相信經過不斷的努力學習,總有一天我會把英語説得很好。

想要被愛,就要學會去愛,去討喜。所以我相信當我每天熱愛英語時,它也會愛我。

我相信有一天我會實現我的夢想!

謝謝!

Hello, ladies and gentlemen! It is my honor to share my topic with you here. And my topic is Time Is Valuable. Time flies. The article cong cong of Zhu Ziqing also tells us time is rare. We all know that :Time is life, at home we have parents advisement, at school we have teachers advisement. But who treasures time as life?

Now let’s enjoy a story: One day a young man visited great educator Banjieming. When Banjieming opened the door, to the young man’s great surprise.: his house was very dirty. “I’m sorry, It’s too dirty. Wait a minute please. Banjieming said and closed the door.

One minute later, Banjieming opened the door again and said: come in please . This time what the young man saw was a clean and clear sitting room.

“OK, You may go now. Banjieming said , “But I , I havn’t remit to you”. The young man asked. “Isn’t it enough? Looking at the room, “ Banjieming said. “You have been here for one minute.” “One minute? One minute, Oh I know. You tell me a truth: We can do many things in a minute.” The young man left with satisfaction.

The story is short but meaningful. Just like the story says:

one minute isn’t long. But our life is made of such minutes. In fact only treasure time , will you succeed, only treasure time, will you realize your ideal. Only treasure time will you achieve what you want.

We should make good use of time to study hard or to do something meaningful for yourself. So, we should plan the time to study and relax,especially at use we have more free time at home,so that we can use that time to do a lot of things.

However,how can we plan the time? There are different ways for different example, somebody like to study in the morning, and relax in the the contrary, somebody like to relax in the morning, and study in the body even think the best time to study is in the erent ways for different all the ways have one thing in common.

That is the need for practical action. If you want to change a difficult situation, if you want to change yourself, if you want to make good use of time to study, you must put into not, your plan will be not meaningful.

So dear fiends, please treasure every minutes of your life. Only like this will you have an excellent future. Thank you very much.

What College Education Means to Me

the title of my speech is “what college education means to me” reflecting on the past two and half years of my college experience, i come to realize how much it has shaped me.

for me, college education is a marvelous ship-builder who designed me from kneel plates up.

with great vision, college education has equipped me, first with a powerful propeller----the sophisticated knowledge in certain field and wide exposure to other disciplines. by dedicating myself to the engineering courses in the day and immersing myself in the rich banquet of the world literature at night, i’ve amassed the driving force for the future and enriched my soul.

besides, college education has also provided me with a precise compass----the sense of social responsibility. how can i best serve the interest of the public while achieving my self-fulfillment? my one year’s experience as a part-time english teacher has testified: to be valuable to society as well as to find my place, i have to possess some actual strength and the ability to function well in the most challenging situation. amid the hectic schedule that balances club activities, sports, and academic courses, i feel the rhythm and beauty in the intensity of my high-pitched life, knowing that i ’m on the right way.

and more importantly, college education has set up not only single ships, but also fleets with common destinations. by interacting with friends of common beliefs, i’ve acquired skills of relating to other people.

now ,as a ship about to make my maiden voyage ,i’m still not in the position to tell what’s waiting ahead of me ,but with a powerful propeller, a precise compass and ardent companions of sailing in the sea of society, i’m ready to be a great sea-explorer.

thank you.

Dears,

Good morning all!

Time, was a strange thing, it makes all sickness and death. When there is something born of time, from that moment the beginning of time has passed. How to we do? We can only seize the opportunity to seize life, to do the masters of their own destiny.

I have thought about a problem, what is time? I think that time is of the mind in life when the runway, and it is responsible for the pletion of a mission of a subdivision.

Can not recover the past, the past is a good time regardless, or painful and have to stay in our memory, our experience has enriched and matured our thinking. Occasionally, the memories, can regulate our emotions, purify our hearts. Has been really obsessed with old things is not desirable because it is more important now.

I read a Soviet writer Nicholas? Alec? Ostrovsky&39;s book "How to Make Steel", I was moved to this section of the article so that impressed me: "Life belongs to the people only once. one&39;s life should be spent this way: when he look back, he does not regret the years wasted, not because of the shame . Thus, in death, he will be able to say : &39;I own a whole life and energies are dedicated to the world&39;s most magnificent cause - the cause of humanity andthe struggle of liberation. " Yes ah life time were more valuable it, especially the juvenile time. From now on, I have to cherish.

I have heard such a story: The pressure in the rubble and stones following a grass, it is a longing for the sun to reach it the will of Health, no matter how heavy stones above, between the rocks and stones How to narrow the gap, it always twists and turns, the tough and up through to the ground. Its root to the soil under the long shoots to the ground it stands, this is an irresistible force of life, to prevent its stones were thrown to the. Xiaocaohu a vitality so great that people can not help but sigh.

Yes ah, life will be like this, like the grass, no matter what circumstances, are making progress will never bow, the only way of life is the best, the most meaningful. Time is of the essence, time is gone forever, and we must treasure this good time, study hard, grow up, the effectiveness of the motherland. It is also the so-called "one inch by one inch gold time, gold-inch inch time. Let us cherish the time with it!

Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .

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 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .

Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so longas it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courag

When I was fifteen, I announced to my English class that I was going to write and illustrate my own books. Half the students sneered, the rest nearly fell out of their chairs laughing. “Don’t be silly, only geniuses can become writers,” the English teacher said smugly, “And you are getting a D this semester.” I was so humiliated I burst into tears.

That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the Capri’s Weekly newspaper. To my astonishment, they published it and sent me two dollars. I was a published and paid writer. I showed my teacher and fellow students. They laughed. “Just plain dumb luck,” the teacher said. I tasted success. I’d sold the first thing I’d ever written. That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck, that was fine with me.

During the next two years I sold dozens of poems, letters, jokes and recipes. By the time I graduated from high school, with a C minus average, I had scrapbooks filled with my published work. I never mentioned my writing to my teachers, friends or my family again. They were dream killers and if people must choose between their friends and their dreams, they must always choose their dreams.

I had four children at the time, and the oldest was only four. While the children napped, I typed on my ancient typewriter. I wrote what I felt. It took nine months, just like a baby. I chose a publisher at random and put the manuscript in an empty Pampers diapers package, the only box I could find. I’d never heard of manuscript boxes. The letter I enclosed read, “I wrote this book myself, I hope you like it. I also do the illustrations. Chapter six and twelve are my favourites. Thank you.” I tied a string around the diaper box and mailed it without a self addressed stamped envelope and without making a copy of the manuscript.

A month later I received a contract, an advance on royalties, and a request to start working on another book. Crying Wind, the title of my book, became a best seller, was translated into fifteen languages and Braille and sold worldwide. I appeared on TV talk shows during the day and changed diapers at night. I traveled from New York to California and Canada on promotional tours. My first book also became required reading in native American schools in Canada.
