同时,我们还必须勤奋、扎实地工作。罗纳德·里根曾经说过:“我不相信无论我们怎样做,我们的命运均相同;我只是相信,如果我们什么都不做,结果肯定是一样的命运不济。”他这样说,是要我们相信拼搏,而不要相信命运。
虽然目前国家还有些困难,可是我们年轻人决不能泯灭希望。因为青年决定着国家的繁荣与人民的幸福,所以从现在开始,我们必须锻炼身体、塑造品质、丰富知识。如果这些都做到了的话,我坚信二十一世纪将会是属于中国人的世纪。谢谢大家。
A Dream That I Have
He Tingting
Good morning! Ladies and Gentlemen;Today; I'm so glad to e
here。 It's my honor to give the speech。 I'm He Tingting; ing from
A'Ba Tibet and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture。 As a Qiang girl。 I
wele you to our hometown。 Now I'll talk about my dream。
My hometown is a remote; lonely village; with verdant mountains
and clean streams; full of fresh air。。。 The sur-roundings is quiet
and graceful。 What a wonderful sight!
But I'm sorry to say it's so poor; so backward。
One day in a late autumn; my parents and I went back there
together; in order to call on my grandfather being ill。 Getting off
the bus; slowly we walked hard towards my hometown along a narrow
winding path。 Suddenly; the hap-py laughter of children interested
me。 I looked around; and caught sight of some children playing; aged
8…9。 It seemed they were free from care。 I went up to them; and
asked; 〃 Why aren't you at school now? Are you on leave?〃 One boy
stood up and said sadly; 〃 We don't have any teachers; No teachers
teach us。 Two years ago; we had a teacher from a city。 But only two
weeks later he went away。 From then on; no teacher es here any
more。 Also we have no school to attend here。〃
〃Why don't you go to the city to study?〃 I asked。 〃My parents are
both farmers; we haven't enough money。〃 He stopped for a moment; and
then continued; 〃We really hope for school。〃 After hearing that; I
couldn't say a word with a heavy heart。
Later; I thought it over for a long time。 That's the children's
fault? No。 That's their parents' fault with no money? No。 But I
don’t really understand why。
If they could be at school like me。 How wonderful it is。 However;
in fact they couldn’t be。 What can I do for them?
Facing the children unable to go to school;
Facing the poverty of minority nationality regions;
Facing all these facts, suddenly; a bright idea struck me。 From
that moment; I have a dream; a splendid dream!
I dream; one day; I will be able to be a teacher and return to my
hometown。 I'll try my best to let the children in-to the school;
into the classroom。 I'll teach them to read and teach them to write;
with my patience; with my love; hon-estly。 I'll turn them into the
persons with a lot of knowledge。
I dream; one day; I can set up a school for children by myself;
let these children enter the school。 Of cause I'll hope to set up
schools as many as I can; to let all the children enter the school。
Also; I dream; one day; the students I teach will graduate from
universities and take heavy responsibilities of building our
hometown; building our motherland。
I dream; one day; all these will e true。 And my hometown will
bee richer and richer; more and more beautiful。
That's my dream。 I'u return to my mother school with my faith。
Having this belief; I'u value the time; every hour; every minute;
every second。 I'll study each lesson well; and lay the foundation;
in order to realize the hope of children's attending school; seeking
for knowledge。
Having this belief; I'u break up a new path to achieve the goal。
Having this belief; I'l1 have enough courage to change all the bad
situation。
I believe that my dream will turn into reality。
As you all know; some years ago; we had a Hope Project; a lot of
children have already returned to the school grounds。
We all know; our government decides to develop the western area。
Our ent decides to develop areas in-habited by the minority
nationalities。 Especially; Our government decides to develop the
education。
And I know; a lot of people in and out of our prefecture are
working hard at it。 Everyone is trying to contribute to our
motherland。
So I'm sure; my dream will e true; at last! I believe that!
Thank you!

我有一个梦
贺婷婷
女士们,先生们,早上好!
很高兴能有这样一个演讲的机会。我叫贺婷婷,是一个羌族女孩,来自阿坝藏族羌族自治州。欢迎你们到我的家乡来!现在,我想和大家一起分享分享我的梦想。
我的家乡是一个边远、偏僻的小山村,青翠的群山,清澈的小溪,清新的空气……这儿的一切是那样的宁静和优美。
但是,我很遗憾地告诉你们,这里很穷,也很落后。
深秋的一天,我和父母一起回到那儿,去探望我那生病的爷爷。下车后,我们沿着一条狭窄、蜿蜒崎岖的山路艰难地走着。突然,一阵嬉笑声吸引了我。我向四周看了看,发现有许多八九岁的孩子正在那儿玩耍,看起来是那样的无忧无虑。我走过去,问:“你们为什么不去上学呢?是放假了吗?”一个男孩站起来,很难过地说:“我们没有老师……没有老师教我们。两年前,有一位城里的老师到了这里,但是两星期后他就走了。从那以后,再也没有老师肯来这儿了,我们也就没有学校可上了。”
“那你们为什么不到城里去读书呢?”我问。“我爸妈都是农民,我们没有足够的钱。”他停了一会儿,然后继续说,“我真的好想上学!”听了之后,我心情极其沉重,一句话都说不出来。
我想了很久,那是孩子们的错吗?不。是他们的父母没有钱的错吗?当然也不是。但是我真的不明白为什么。
如果他们能像我一样上学读书,那该多好。但是事实上,他们不可能。我能为他们做些什么呢?
面对着这些不能上学读书的孩子们;
面对着贫穷的少数民族地区;
面对着这所有的事实,突然,我的内心震撼了,从那时起,我有了一个梦想,一个极好的梦想!
我梦想有一天,我将成为一个老师,重回我的家乡。我会尽我最大的努力让孩子们走进学校,走进教室;我会用我的耐心、我的爱心,教他们读书、写字。我会让他们成为最有知识的人。
我梦想有一天,我会亲自为孩子们建立一所学校,让这些孩子都能够上学,当然,我将尽我所能建立更多的学校,让所有的孩子都能够上学。
我梦想有一天,我教过的学生能够从大学毕业,并且背负建设家乡、建设祖国的重任。
我梦想有一天,这所有的一切都成为现实,而我的家乡也将越来越富饶,越来越美丽。
这就是我的梦想,我将带着我的信念重返母校。
有了这个信念,我将分外珍惜这美好的时光,每时,每分,每秒。我会学好每门功课,打好基础,让孩子们实现上学学知识的心愿。
有了这个信念,我能从荆棘丛中劈出一条希望之路。
有了这个信念,我将会有足够的勇气去改变这所有的一切。
我坚信,我的梦想一定会实现。
大家知道,许多年前,我们有了希望工程,许许多多的孩子已经重返校园。
我们知道,我们的政府决定发展西部地区,发展少数民族地区,尤其要发展西部的教育。
并且,我知道,我们州内州外的人们都在辛勤地工作着。
所以我深信,我的梦想一定会实现。我坚信!
谢谢!
Smile——The best Present
Zhao Hongyan
Dear teachers and fellow students:
Good evening。 I m deeply honored that I have the opportunity to
talk something about the topic “what is the best present to give
other” with everyone here。
Different people always have different ideas about the same thing。
We may probably get all kinds of answers to the question mentioned
above; if we carry on a poll。 A little child may regard the candy or
toy he loves as a gesture of friendship。 Someone may think that a
book or a piece of information he needs urgently is the best
present。 Even someone considers money is valuable。。。 But to most
people; even all people; believe it or not; smile is the best
present。 The conclusion is not my fabrication。 It can be proved by
the experience of David; who is a successful businessman of America。
“Warm smile is the best present to others; especially to those who
are in bad situations。” David knew that it was a truth on a cold
winter morning; which changed his life。
It was a cold winter day。 Then David was still a nine-year-old
boy; with thin; shabby and unfitted clothes; standing at the corner
of the main street; just like the other hundreds of little beggars。
In his little heart; he regarded the thing he was doing as the worst
one; pared with all the other careers。 But he had no other
choice; because his family was poor and he badly required a big sum
of money。 Mother died when he was five years old。 Father worked for
a rich man; earning money to bring him up。 But the day before; he
was suddenly ill。 In order to send Father to hospital; he had to
make money。 But he wad so young that no factory would adopt him as a
worker。 So he had to bee a beggar。
It was the first day that he was a beggar。 He could not persuade
himself to do like others; dragging clothes of the gentlemen or
ladies passing by; following him or her until they get the money
wanted。 He just stood there; and watched the pedestrians quietly;
wishing someone would have bestowed fa
