1、英语演讲比赛的即兴演讲稿祝你成功!英语演讲比赛的即兴演讲稿 (laughter) 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:
2、“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 e
3、lse. i did my best. and i just waited for the time that i could go off and read my books.but the first time that i took my book out of my suitcase, the coolest girl in the bunk came up to me and she asked me, “why are you being so mellow?“ - mellow, of course, being the exact opposite of r-o-w-d-i-e
4、. and then the second time i tried it, the counselor came up to me with a concerned expression on her face and she repeated the point about camp spirit and said we should all work very hard to be outgoing.and so i put my books away, back in their suitcase, and i put them under my bed, and there they
5、 stayed for the rest of the summer. and i felt kind of guilty about this. i felt as if the books needed me somehow, and they were calling out to me and i was forsaking them. but i did forsake them and i didn't open that suitcase again until i was back home with my family at the end of the summer
6、.now, i tell you this story about summer camp. i could have told you 50 others just like it - all the times that i got the message that somehow my quiet and introverted style of being was not necessarily the right way to go, that i should be trying to pass as more of an extrovert. and i always sense
7、d deep down that this was wrong and that introverts were pretty excellent just as they were. but for years i denied this intuition, and so i became a wall street lawyer, of all things, instead of the writer that i had always longed to be - partly because i needed to prove to myself that i could be b
8、old and assertive too. and i was always going off to crowded bars when i really would have preferred to just have a nice dinner with friends. and i made these self-negating choices so reflexively, that i wasn't even aware that i was making them.now this is what many introverts do, and it's o
9、ur loss for sure, but it is also our colleagues' loss and our communities' loss. and at the risk of sounding grandiose, it is the world's loss. because when it comes to creativity and to leadership, we need introverts doing what they do best. a third to a half of the population are intro
10、verts - a third to a half. so that's one out of every two or three people you know. so even if you're an extrovert yourself, i'm talking about your coworkers and your spouses and your children and the person sitting next to you right now - all of them subject to this bias that is pretty
11、deep and real in our society. we all internalize it from a very early age without even having a language for what we're doing. 英语演讲比赛的即兴演讲稿2 What College Education Means to Methe title of my speech is “what college education means to me”.now reflecting on the past two and half years of my colleg
12、e 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
13、 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, ive amassed the driving force for the future and enriched my soul.besides, college education has also provided me with a precise compass-the sense
14、 of social responsibility. how can i best serve the interest of the public while achieving my self-fulfillment? my one years 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 funct
15、ion 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 singl
16、e ships, but also fleets with common destinations. by interacting with friends of common beliefs, ive acquired skills of relating to other people.now ,as a ship about to make my maiden voyage ,im still not in the position to tell whats waiting ahead of me ,but with a powerful propeller, a precise co
17、mpass and ardent companions of sailing in the sea of society, im ready to be a great sea-explorer.thank you. 英语演讲比赛的即兴演讲稿3 i have the answer to a question that we've all asked. the question is, why is it that the letter x represents the unknown? now i know we learned that in math class, but now
18、it's everywhere in the culture - the x prize, the x-files, project x, tedx. where'd that come from?about six years ago i decided that i would learn arabic, which turns out to be a supremely logical language. to write a word or a phrase or a sentence in arabic is like crafting an equation, be
19、cause every part is extremely precise and carries a lot of information. that's one of the reasons so much of what we've come to think of as western science and mathematics and engineering was really worked out in the first few centuries of the common era by the persians and the arabs and the
20、 turks.this includes the little system in arabic called al-jebra. and al-jebr roughly translates to “the system for reconciling disparate parts.“ al-jebr finally came into english as algebra. one example among many.the arabic texts containing this mathematical wisdom finally made their way to europe
21、 - which is to say spain - in the 11th and 12th centuries. and when they arrived there was tremendous interest in translating this wisdom into a european language.but there were problems. one problem is there are some sounds in arabic that just don't make it through a european voice box without
22、lots of practice. trust me on that one. also, those very sounds tend not to be represented by the characters that are available in european languages.here's one of the culprits. this is the letter sheen, and it makes the sound we think of as sh - “sh.“ it's also the very first letter of the
23、word shalan, which means “something“ just like the the english word “something“ - some undefined, unknown thing.now in arabic, we can make this definite by adding the definite article “al.“ so this is al-shalan - the unknown thing. and this is a word that appears throughout early mathematics, such as this 10th century derivation of proofs.the problem for the medieval spanish scholars who were tasked with tra
