Healthy Lifestyle

  Hello, everyone.I am very glad to have this chance to join this speech contest.I am li Mengtian.I am from Wan Fang Middle School . Today the topic of my speech is “Healthy Lifestyle”.

  Health is very important in our life.If you want to have a happy life,you must have a healthy lifestyle.Do you know how we keep in good health?Let me tell you.

  Everyone knows a good eating habit is very important for us .But not many people have time to think about what to eat .In many western countries.fast food is very popular.Because people don't have time to eat,and they also think fast food is very delicious.In America,an American can eat about three hamburgers and four bags of French chips every day.That is 2520 calories.But we know a person need about only 20xx calories for a day.So you see , many Americans are very fat.

  We should have a good eating habit at once.What should we do?

  People always say,"An apple e day,keeps the doctor away."Drinking milk is also good for us.And we need a balance of "yin"and "yang".It's a traditional Chinese way to keep healthy.We shouldn't eat too much unhealthy food like junk food.Now , I will tell you what food are best for our health . Eggs have too much protein , you know protein is good for kids.And tomatoes have too many vitamins , it's good for everybody.Oh , soybean , carrots , seafood , green tea ,pawpaw , oranges , strawberries and so on are also healthy food . Please eat more these kinds of food!

  We know that exercise is also very important . Exercising can make children more alert . There are many ways to exercise . You can run , swim , skate or play ball games like basketball , volleyball , football and golf . But maybe you don't know walking is also good for our body , and maybe it's better than other sports . You should exercise in the morning , because you can enjoy fresh air then . Some people like exercising at fitness centers , there are a lot of equipments . You should exercise for 20 minutes every day . Don't exercise too much . It's bad for us!

  And a good sleeping habit is good for us , too .Before we go to bed,we should drink some milk, it can help us sleep well.But I know some people always can't sleep well.I think they shouldn't, take a sleeping pill . After evening meal , they should go for walk or have conversations with their family or listen some light music . Maybe these activities can make them than sleep well.

  Happiness lies first of all in health .Now , you must know many things about healthy lifestyle . If you want to have happy life , you should have a good eating habit , exercise every day and sleep well . So I wish everyone's life is getting hathier and heathier ,happier and happier , more and more wonderful!

  Good afternoon. Ladies and Gentlemen,

  Today I will say something about my family love.

  I remember when I was younger. My family lived a simple life. We weren'twealthy by any stretch of the imagination, but we were content with what wehad.

  Our first vehicle was an old broken-down bicycle. It provided us withtransportation on many enjoyable weekends and holidays. Mom sat on the backwhile Dad pedaled. I, a mere toddler at the time, rode on the bar in front ofhim. It didn't matter where we were going as long as we were going theretogether.

  Not long after that, my family moved to Hainan. Relying on my parents,courage and persistence, they started their own business. As a result, we weresoon able to replace the bike with a new car. So we could travel further on ourexcursions. Our family's happy laughter filled the car as we traveled to manydistant locations in China. Many years have gone by since those happy days, butwe're still as close as ever.

  Recently, the airplane has become our mode of transportation as we venturebeyond the confines of China to see the world. We were able to experiencefirsthand the uniqueness of Amsterdam, the romance of Paris, and the elegance ofVienna. But yet, such fantastic sites were nothing compared to the love of ourfamily.

  Time goes by swiftly, and everything is changing all the time.Yet the loveexisting in my family always remains. It is the source of our happiness; It,sthe source of all of our ideals: confidence, courage, and faith. But it goes somuch deeper than that; it warms our very hearts. So I will acclaim for theeternal and awesome love in my family and let it go on forever!

  Thank you very much!

  I have been longing to be an English teacher since I was a very little girl. And five years ago, I really became a teacher, an English teacher. I was proud of myself.

  Since I first steeped on my platform, I have decided to be a good and successful English teacher. However, in my class, when I gave lessons to my students, filled with enthusiasm and passion, some of the students always looked so tired and sleepy. When I spent much of my time preparing for my lessons, trying my best to make my lessons vivid and interesting, the teaching effect and feedback was not that I had expected. Moreover, when I was willing and eager to teach them all that I’ve learned, their abilities of English were still mediocre. I was looking for the reasons. And I was always asking myself: Am I good and successful? How can I be good and successful?

  There were of course many complicated reasons and factors. And in my opinion, whether I am good or not, includes many factors such as my knowledge, my personality, my quality, my methods, teaching art and so on. Absolutely, to be a good and successful English teacher is not an easy job. I need to have an excellent command of English myself to make my students appreciate me and enjoy my class. I need to have the abilities to provide a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere and environment for the students’ study. I have to adopt efficient and various teaching methods to my students’ level. I need to develop my teaching art and skills. I should make full of each student’s ability and always encourage them to give them confidence. Therefore, “Live and learn” and “never too old to learn” have been the mottos I’ve adopted. I must improve my own abilities and skills of teaching, to keep up with the rapid development of our information age and society.

  Is that enough for me to be good and successful now? No, that’s far from enough.

  In spite of all the above aspects of good teaching is the primary and the most important requirement: love teaching and love my students.

  I’ve learned to be the students’ teacher, their elder sister, their friend, their mother and so on. I show my care and love for them. Whenever they are in trouble, being sick, feeling blue or in a bad mood, I am the person that will try to take care of them, talk with them or try to help them balance themselves in good condition. I respect and trust them. When they fall in love with sb., quarrel with friends, cannot get along well with parents, etc. I’ll analyze the pros and cons, the advantages and disadvantages, and give them some opinions or suggestions. I sympathize with and understand them. When they break the rules or do something wrong carelessly, I will help them out of trouble instead of scolding them. I am always strict with them and also place high and enthusiastic hopes on them to make them be strict with themselves and be confident of themselves.

  Everyone needs love. Love is one of the most magical and wonderful feelings in the world. Teachers’ love for their students can make the impossible become possible. The love can change the disvalued into valued. The love can win the students’ love and respect in return. The love can motive the students to work hard. The love can promote the students to better and better in many ways. The love can make the students open their heart to let us know what they are doing, what they are thinking about and how they are feeling.

  An English teacher is a very ordinary post, but the undertaking of English teaching is so great since there are so many English teachers dedicating to it silently and selflessly. I am proud to be one of them and I am proud to dedicate all my life to my beloved career of English teaching.

  Dear teachers and students:

  good morning! Let's look at a group of pictures first.

  "Modern and advanced"? This society forgets and ignores the other two-thirds. This is far from ideal! We call ideal Utopia, a place where there is no reality. Some people are still longing for ideals. We make fun of them and think they are naive. If misfortune befalls us, will we still be satisfied with living in such a society? no Of course not!

  When we feel the warmth of the sun, these people endure great sadness and pain. Can we imagine? They are our brothers and sisters!

  Facing them, will we still complain about our misfortune?

  Facing them, will we still have the mood to cry for our freedom? Facing them, will we still want to have more and more unnecessary things?

  They can't meet their own needs, even basic survival needs! Shouldn't everyone, as a member of human beings, be ashamed? Our luxury deprived their lives, our indifference invaded our souls, and our barbarism destroyed human civilization!

  What is the ideal society? This is a society where no one worries about their life, where no one refuses education, and where everyone can pursue their own happiness! The ideal society is full of love, joy and kindness. In that society, we can touch each other's hearts, we can share our dreams, and most importantly, we can become real men!

  Let us break the national barrier, bridge the gap between the rich and the poor, hand in hand, build the Great Wall, and protect us from evil; Build a stable bridge to connect reality and ideal society! Let's pursue, this is the only way to a bright future! They are looking at us! thank you!

  70 days ago, on Oct, 5th, 20xx,That is, Steve Jobs, died. For me, even for everyone all around the world, it was a day of grief, it was a day of sorrow, and it was a day of sadness. Over a million people from all over the world shared their memories, thoughts, and feelings about Steve. One thing they all have in common is how they’ve been touched by his passion and creativity.

  I didn’t know Steve Jobs until iPhone was invented. It looks like a miracle to me. From that time I began to admire his inovation and his personality. Jobs founded Apple Computer in 1976. Apple's iPhone, iPad, iPod and other well-known electronic products became more and more popular in the world. These products have deeply changed modern communication, entertainment and even the way of life.

  He is a genius who can change the world .He said:” Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower", "Do what you love”. These words influenced me deeply.

  Whenever I make up my mind to make a big decision, his words always help me. I'd like to say“ thanks” him, thank him for his contribution to the world , thank him for his spirit.

  Although the time will never stop on that day. His great spirit will be kept in our heart forever. Steve Jobs,we will never forget you!

  Honourable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, good morning. Humanism, by which I mean the will to give people love and care, is the most joyful and meaningful part of being human. From the old days to technologically advanced world, humanism is always telling ordinary but moving stories.

  Let me tell you what touched my heart this winter break, one morning when I visited my grandmother in the hospital. Walking down the cold, tiled corridor, I noticed an old man, with his granddaughter – maybe 10 years old – sitting by his side. I was lured there by her voice – light and playful – and after I'd seen them together, I could barely take my eyes away. Delicately draped over this old man's beeping cardiograph was a silk sheet with an ancient, cheerful Chinese poem beautifully written on it – and now, this little girl's entrancing voice lovingly brought these words to life. I stood there transfixed; no longer did I see the family members swimming in nervousness; no longer did I feel the hospital's tense cloud of anxiety; no longer did I hear mortality's soft whispers in the corridors; instead, I saw a startling marriage of juxtaposing images and emotions. I was beholding, I realized, a bewilderingly simple yet overwhelmingly powerful metaphor – one that shows that no matter how cold an environment technology can conjure, humanity is always there. In the forefront or the fringes, it is always there.

  For here it was, illustrated vividly before me – the coldness of technology embodied in the hospital walls, while the soulful words of the little girl danced around them in defiance.

  This experience opened my eyes in many ways – ever since, I have been acutely aware of, and wonderfully conscious of, the warm heart of humanity surrounding us, whether we choose to recognise it or not. As one psychological theory states, "We see what we want to see". After my experience that day at the hospital, I have chosen to recognize, day by day, the warmth of humanism everywhere I can.

  I refuse to accept the negative, narrow-minded, caustic opinions that technology is eroding our souls. I say to them, let the machines continue their monotonous cacophony, for just one smiling face is infinitely more valuable than a thousand churners of binary code; let technological progress develop and develop until it poetically devours itself, because one heartfelt "hello" to a fellow traveller can speak libraries of warmth; let the powermongers and oil barons puff their last cigars, because the love and care, and warmth of humanism will always shine like beacon, reaching out to each and every heart on this small planet.

  Although I'll probably never see that little girl or her grandfather again, I'll never forget seeing them there in the hospital that day – and if I did, I'd thank them for showing me how vivid yet subtle, how firm yet fragile, and how invisible yet omnipresent the human spirit is in our world today. Thank you.

  Leading members and judges, young friends: Hello, everybody!

  My name is , and we are pleased to be able to discuss the pursuit of ecellence, dedication youth, this topic, I am going to talk about today is "willing to sacrifice, the fire ignited youth."

  Let the fire burn eternal youth, so that life lightning across the horizon, with all the enthusiasm in echange for time, there is no end to the dream of youth! I really appreciate the "Agni youth," these words inside, and has been encouraging with its own study, work and life. I think that youth should be burned, give off light only value! Burning of one's life may also be corrupt, in that case, I do not want to corrupt, not corrupt, I would like to burn up! Friends present here! You like it?

  Youth is our most beautiful season of life, she is breeding in early spring of life, demonstrating a warm summer, with autumn's master real hidden, which makes clear the hope of winter, full of poetic passion and not a lack of hard work, fashion, romantic and full of the hard struggle. When a person's youth integrate into an era, a career, so youth will not go away, and this will certainly cause in the years of eperience in the reflection of bright light.

  Here, I am reminded of the phrase: "Some people live, he is dead; some dead, he is still alive." The meaning of life is to live, then the meaning of life is it? Certainly not to live while alive, the answer is only two words, and dedication! We can imagine that, not pay, do not create, do not pursue such a youth must gradually grow old in the middle of Things Past, Looking back, there is no trace, no recall, life was filled with sighing everywhere. I think this is not the meaning of our eistence. Throughout the ages, there are numerous capable person in the prime of his achievements had already immortal life, I have no time to list them here. However, a person's name I can not but mention, he is always learning model, one of the most etraordinary is the greatest most selfless people. As we all know he is? The legend is that Lei Feng, who warned us that: "youth ah, always beautiful, but the true youth, belongs only to those who always strive for the best people, always selfless labor of the people, always humble man!" I think everyone here one, including myself, could be such a person.

  Frankly, three years ago, when I first came to work and there have been lost and confused, feeling the reality is not ideal, the dream has always felt from some distance, once among the perpleed. However, the youth, I was just cast a good knife, should not have to wait and you have a moment of hesitation. I never watched the knife slowly oidized and dull, then mottled, rust, weathering, and finally became a scrap. I told myself, "if you are gold, will be able to shine, as long as you face the high morale, and to face work, you will have access to." Road is long Come, happiness of the up and down the quest. Youth is the season of learning, youth years of struggle, do not stop our progress, because the youth of the road is long. Have time stop and take a look book, back to think about the road traveled, a good life for their own planning, the ideals enshrined in the minds of their own, willing to make a lonely, innovative, highly motivated young people.

  Youth is not a period of life, but a heart condition. If your heart is young, many of you will always remain a dream, in the densely overcast days, to seize the moment will still flash of golden sun. Although we were born in different years, working in different positions, but we have a common home, where we keep the same entrepreneurial spirit, dedication to write the same commitment, with the same magnificent youth. This is a speech, it is a confession. When I filled with youthful air, carries a heavy dreams and beliefs standing here the moment, my heart is so magnanimous and passionate, the kind of indescribable ecitement and tension, I sincerely invite you to share.

  for cleaning environment is necessary for us to keep in mind the three items.they are reduced,reused and recycled.reducing is the best way to protect the environment.however if you can’t reduce something we use it and if you can’t reuse it,you can recycle it.we do thing waste means shopping with environment in mind.considered environment impact even each products before you buy it.remember to make list what you need before you go shopping.this will reduce impulse buying.buy in bulk which means buy in large quantities and not pack it.it’s much cheaper and it delimits small tokens and e_cise packaging.avoid buy things that can’t be recycled.second,learning to reuse is easy after you make a little practice.for e_ample,you can reuse shopping bags by canvas bags and use them when you shop.

  buy durable high quantity goods for a longer life.all the durable goods may cost a little more at first.they would save your money and help save the environment in longer.before for anything away,think about how each item can be reused.the last of the three items that we must keep in mind is recycling.recycling means collecting,processing,marketing and ultimately reusing material that we once thrown away.check the yellow pages of the internet to find information about local recycle programs in your community.

  Everyone has a dream, but not everyone can achieve your dream, that dream and reality are too far apart, seems to dream is out of reach, is the unclear main, in the face of cruel reality and dream will only make our steadfast died. Actually hinder our progress is oneself, feel distant dream is their own, think of dream bumpy road is their own, think is hang him yourself, give up the dream is ourselves, we see our circle in a design of the fence, the limitations in the boundaries of their thinking, and then how to also don't break this gap, be your own captive, lost to yourself.

  Someone says: the heart has how old, stage has how old, no can't do, only unexpected. As long as we think of is said to myself, I can, I'll do. Courage to face their own, beyond their own pattern, failures, drain, start again. If you lose, never recovered, then you can't, regret lifelong.

  A farmers in liaoning, he likes singing very much, he sang in the fields, on the muddy road singing, singing in dirty chicken yard, a sing for 13 years. But many people said that his voice is not suitable for singing, but he don't want to give up, the support of mom gave him great encouragement, he came to China good voice, just want to ask the teachers, his voice would there, can sing out of their own future? A melodious, haven't loving English songs of the song, the authority of the three teachers will turn around trying to want to know, that strange voice, what is the girl sing it, when they turned the moment seemed to be shocked, it turned out that he is a handsome and clear man. The first evaluation of na ying is singing is too attractive, yu give sound special affirmation, I miss you also said that "the time has come for the shine, if you can come out, that is unique" yes, god gave him a very unique voice, at the same time let him live in the great contrast, isn't it a kind of experience?

  A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat."

  Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust. He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river." He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food.

  He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them. Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.

  一个人正朝着一个富人的`房子走去,当他沿着路走时,在路的一边他发现一箱好苹果,他说:"我不打算吃那些苹果,因为富人会给我更多的食物,他会给我很好吃的东西。"

  然后他拿起苹果,一把扔到土里去。他继续走,来到河边,河涨水了,因此,他到不了河对岸,他等了一会儿,然后他说:"今天我去不了富人家了,因为我不能渡过河。" 他开始回家,那天他没有吃东西。

  他就开始去找吃的,他找到苹果,很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。不要把好东西扔掉,换个时候你会觉得它们大有用处。

  Well, this is not how i expected to wake up this morning. after i received the news, malia walked in and said, "daddy, you won the nobel peace prize, and it is bo's birthday!" and then sasha added: "plus, we have a three-day weekend coming up." so it's good to have kids to keep things in

  Perspective.

  I am both surprised and deeply humbled by the decision of the nobel committee. let me be clear: i do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of american leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations.

  To be honest, i do not feel that i deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who have been honoured by this prize – men and women who have inspired me and inspired the entire world through their courageous pursuit of peace.

  But i also know that this prize reflects the kind of world that those men and women, and all americans, want to build – a world that gives life to the promise of our founding documents. and i know that, throughout history, the nobel peace prize has not just been used to honour specific achievement; it's also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes. and that is why i will accept this award as a call to action – a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st-century.

  These challenges can't be met by any one leader or any one nation. and that's why my administration has worked to establish a new era of engagement in which all nations must take responsibility for the world we seek...

  Some of the work confronting us will not be completed during my presidency. some, like the elimination of nuclear weapons, may not be completed in my lifetime. but i know these challenges can be met so long as it's recognised that they will not be met by one person or one nation alone. this award is not simply about the efforts of my administ

  Tration – it's about the courageous efforts of people around the world.

  And that's why this award must be shared with everyone who strives for justice and dignity – for the young woman who marches silently in the streets on behalf of her right to be heard even in the face of beatings and bullets; for the leader imprisoned in her own home because she refuses to abandon her commitment to democracy; for the soldier who sacrificed through tour after tour of duty on behalf of someone half a world away; and for all those men and women across the world who sacrifice their safety and their freedom and sometimes their lives for the cause of peace.

  That has always been the cause of america. that's why the world has always looked to america. and that's why i believe america will continue to lead. thank you very much.

  Trust and Love

  Good evening, everyone!

  Throughout my years of being a student, I’ve had many teachers. None of them are the same, but the one that I’ll never forget and will always miss is my Chinese bilingual teacher in the middle school I attended in Seattle, Ms. Ho. She was a skinny, but stylish lady in her 50s. She was different from all the other teachers because she gave me something unforgettable.

  Ms. Ho and I became friends right in the first semester I was in that middle school. At the same time, I was having a really hard time with my subjects. Since I had just transferred from a bilingual school, where I had stayed for two months after arriving in the US, my English was

  horrible; my average grade was below C. I almost thought it impossible to learn English. Then, one day she told me she strongly believed that I was capable of controlling my life, and I would be just fine. She said that she found we were much alike: Both were stubborn, kind-hearted and a little bit simple-minded. She believed that I had the quality of becoming wise. She even said that she didn’t have any worries about me, about my not learning English. With her encouragement, I found the strength within myself and began to desire to work even harder. As a result, I soon proved her right, and at the end of the semester, I got a 3.8 average grade. Today, I still keep in touch with her, and she still tells me how she believes in me. Sometimes, I’d think back, and wonder how I could handle all those things if it wasn’t for her encouragement and trust. Could I be the person I am today? Then, it struck me: What we need has always been trust and love of others; because these things inspire us to do our best, and to live our life to its fullest.

  To sum up, I’d like to say to all of you: Let us all appreciate trust and love of others and achieve our full potential in our life!

  爱与信任

  多年的学生生涯让我认识了不少的老师,每一位老师都不一样。但最让我无法忘怀的是我在西雅图所上的初中里的一位华裔双语老师——何老师。这位老师对我有特殊的意义,因为她给我的.不是课堂上能收获的东西。

  我刚到那所初中的第一个学期,可谓举步维艰。当时我是从一所双语学校转入那所公立普通学校的。那时,我刚到美国两个月,英语差到无法与人沟通。在双语学校中的各科平均成绩在C以下。就在我对学习英语快要失去信心的时候,在学校中几个星期的时间却让我与何老师成为了朋友。在我灰心泄气的时候,何老师对我说,她非常相信我的能力,一切都会好起来的。她说她觉得我们很相似,我有那种克服困难的能力,更不要说学英语这个问题了。在她的鼓舞下,我找到了努力的欲望。结果,我验证了她所说的话。学期末,我的平均成绩上升到了3.8。

  直到今天,我还与何老师保持联络,她也还会告诉我她是多么的相信我的能力。有的时候,当我回想起往事时,我会想:如果没有这位老师在我身后鼓励我,并且固执地一再告诉我我一定能行,今天的我,还会是这个样子吗?面对种种困难,我自己会一直有勇气去面对吗?一次次的回想,我终于发现了:原来我们每个人都需要爱与信任。就有了自信,因为有了爱与信任,我们就会尽最大的努力,活出我们的“真我风采”。

  最后,我想对大家说:让我们感激所得到的爱与信任,发挥出我们生命中最大的潜力吧!

  when i was nine years old i went off to summer camp for the first time. and my mother packed me a suitcase full of books, which to me seemed like a perfectly natural thing to do. because in my family, reading was the primary group activity. and this might sound antisocial to you, but for us it was really just a different way of being social. you have the animal warmth of your family sitting right next to you, but you are also free to go roaming around the adventureland inside your own mind. and i had this idea that camp was going to be just like this, but better. (laughter) i had a vision of 10 girls sitting in a cabin cozily reading books in their matching nightgowns.

  (laughter)

  “'i live 17 miles from here.' i replied. 'my car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. it didn't. instead, it broke down in the perfect place: off the freeway, within walking distance of here. i'm still able to teach my class, and i've been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class. if my car was meant to break down today, it couldn't have been arranged in a more convenient fashion.'

  the secretary's eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. i smiled back and headed for class.“ so ended my story.

  i scanned the sixty faces in my economics class at unlv. despite the early hour, no one seemed to be asleep. somehow, my story had touched them. or maybe it wasn't the story at all. in fact, it had all started with a student's observation that i was cheerful.

  deepak chopra has quoted an indian wise man as saying, “who you are speaks louder to me than anything you can say.“ i suppose it must be so.

  camp was more like a keg party without any alcohol. and on the very first day our counselor gathered us all together and she taught us a cheer that she said we would be doing every day for the rest of the summer to instill camp spirit. and it went like this: “r-o-w-d-i-e, that's the way we spell rowdie. rowdie, rowdie, let's get rowdie.“ yeah. so i couldn't figure out for the life of me why we were supposed to be so rowdy, or why we had to spell this word incorrectly. (laughter) but i recited a cheer. i recited a cheer along with everybody else. i did my best. and i just waited for the time that i could go off and read my books.
