敬爱的老师、亲爱的伙伴:

上了小学,在老师的教育下,同学的帮助下,我各方面都有了很大的进步,我觉得我能当英语班干部.

我有下例优点:

1.遵守学校各项规章制度,不迟到,不旷课,上课能专心听老师讲课,不做小动作.

2.能认真学习,按时完成作业.

3.能与同学团结友爱.

4.关心集体,积极参加各项活动.

5.热爱劳动.

我也有一些缺点:有时遇到事情,胆子比较小,今后一定要克服这个缺点,更加努力,好好学习,天天向上.

如果大家选我当英语班干部,我一定会全心全意为大家服务,为三(六)班争光.

I have a new classmate.She is Huang Jie.She is girl.She is twelve years old.She has long hair.She has big eyes and small nose.She is tall.My classmate likes reading book,playing computer games,listening to music,but sometimes she likes playing sports.

This is my classmate,What about you.

尊敬的老师、亲爱的同学们:

大家好!

今天,我很荣幸地走上讲台,我要竞聘的职位是英语课代表。那我为什么会竞聘这个职位呢?原因有以下几点:

1、我非常喜欢英语,成绩也不错。我想:只要我从小就学好英语,长大后肯定会有用的。

2、我是一个活泼开朗的人,如果我胜任了这个职位,会尽可能地为大家服务,让大家的英语成绩共同提高。

3、每堂英语课,我都仔细地听讲,下课后认真复习。回家后我会认真完成英语回家作业,不会的难题还能请教我那教英语的妈妈。教学水平高的妈妈总会耐心地给我讲解为什么要这么写。

班委的责任是重大的,但请大家相信我,我一定不会辜负老师和同学们对我的期望,全心全意为同学们服务。

希望老师和各位同学信任我、支持我,投上你宝贵的一票吧!

我的演讲完了,谢谢大家!

师、同学们:

你们好!

我叫XX,通过这几天的相处,相信大家对我已不陌生。

今天,作为班干部的竞选人站在这里,我十分激动,也感到非常荣幸。我参加这次竞选是为了展现自己的口才,锻炼自己的胆魄,发挥自己的才能。我今天竞选的班干部职位是英语课代表,我相信我有当好这个职位的能力,为英语老师做好我力所能及的工作,减轻老师的负担。因为我十分喜爱英语,从小学一年级起到六年级为止在班上一直担任英语课代表的职位,有一定的管理经验,成绩更是在班里名列前茅。

如果我当上了英语课代表,首先我会比过去更加努力,使同学们更加信任我,另外同学们有不会的地方我会义不容辞的教大家,还会带领大家定期开展各项英语主题活动,在玩耍中学习,在学习中进步。在工作中,如果我有做的不对的地方,希望大家能够指出来,我会虚心听取意见并马上改正。

即使今天我竞选不上英语课代表,我也不会气馁,依然会继续努力,请大家投我一票吧!谢谢!

亲爱的老师同学们,

大家早上好。

这是我第一次发表英语演讲,也是第一次竞选班长,为此我感到荣幸。

此时此刻,我的性情十分激动,当然也很紧张。班长是一个很多人想做却不敢做的职位。因为这个职位需要一位有能力的人来担当。

我没有和大把握去当一名好班长,一旦我上任,我会尽我最大的努力来做好这个班长。

我们认识不过一天,所以我希望我们能在接下来的几个想起李,互相学习,一起玩耍,让这个班级变成我们记忆中最短却是印象最深刻的班级。

如果我没有选上,我不会感到可惜。因为我的失败说明了我需要进一步提高自己,继续努力。这个演讲帮助我展示了自己,也让我学到了很多。

无论结果如何,我都很感激那些支持我的人。

谢谢。

Good afternoon, my dear teachers and friends,

Suppose you are in a dark cave alone now. Maybe you can not find any hope, you are trembling and frightened. What will you do? What will you say? Will you give up? (……) No we should not give up. We should try our best to find hope. So today, I am honored to stand here to share my opinion with you---- Let’s say NO to Give UP.

敬爱的'老师,亲爱的同学们:

大家早上好,很高兴今天能站在这里为大家发言,今天我说话的主题是《珍爱生命,健康成长》。

世界上什么东西最宝贵呢,有人说是金钱,有人说是时间,但我认为是生命。因为生命只有一次,因为生命承载着希望。

生命又是如此的脆弱,有多少人为了图省事而翻越护栏命丧车轮之下?有多少人为了贪图一时之快闯红灯而造成他人殒命?又有多少人因为贪一时之快感而染上毒瘾,最后弄得家庭破碎?因此我们要加倍呵护生命,拒绝一切危害我们健康的事物,快乐健康的成长。

这是发生在我们身边的事情:20xx年7月广西灌阳的一位年仅14岁的学生因为过量吸食而死亡,而在今年的5月20日,湖北麻城一男子因吸食 精神失常闯入当地一小学持菜刀砍伤8名小学生。这都是因为给带来的后果。听到这些,亲爱的同学们,我们是不是要从他们身上吸取教训,珍惜我们宝贵的生命呢?

但是现在,我们身边依然有好多同龄人不听家长的话,不服从老师的管理和学校的教育。一意孤行,不想学习,把大量的课余时间都浪费掉,沉迷于网络,接触一些不良的信息,和社会上一些不良青年混在一起,这些都会给我们的生命,给我们的健康带来危害。

亲爱的同学们,柳树枯了,有再青的时候;桃花谢了,有再开的时候;燕子去了,有再来的时候。然而一个人的生命结束了,却再也没有复活的机会。同学们,我们是国家和民族的未来和希望,我们一定要珍惜青春,为了自己,为了家庭,为了民族,为了国家,请肩负起我们义不容辞的责任,从现在开始,请大家珍爱生命,健康快乐的成长。

Now we are facing two problems of global warming and a shortage of natural resources, both of which are getting more and more serious day by day. Thus, it is important for us to promote a low-carbon lifestyle.

Low-carbon lifestyle covers many aspect of our life like transportation, traveling, home-heating, and so on. In order to promote a low-carbon life, some plans must be carried out as follows. Firstly, don’t waste any electricity and water. Remember to turn off the lights and water taps unless we use them. Secondly, we had better take the subways or bus to work, so as to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide. Thirdly, we should use cloth bags for shopping instead of plastic bags, and use recyclable bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones, for it can not only save resources, but also reduce pollution. What’s more, it is of great significance to plant more trees, since trees can balance the carbon dioxide emissions.

In a word, if we live a low-carbon life from now on, we will have a better environment and more resources left for our descendants.

如今我们面临着两大环境问题:全球变暖和自然资源匮乏,且情况日益严重。由此可见,提倡低碳生活的重要性。

低碳生活方式包括了我们生活的很多方面,比如交通、旅行、室内取暖等。为了促进低碳生活,我们应该采取以下的行动。首先,不要浪费水电。要记得随手关灯,用水完后随手关闭水龙头。其次,我们最好坐地铁或是公交车上班,这样可以减少碳排放。第三,我们购物时应该用布袋替换塑料袋;使用可循环利用的碗筷,不使用一次性用品。因为这样不仅节约资源,也减少污染。此外,大量植树也很重要,因为树木可以平衡二氧化碳排放量。

总之,如果我们现在开始低碳生活,我们将会拥有跟美好的环境,还为我们的子孙后代节约资源。

敬爱的老师,亲爱的同学们:

大家好!我叫**。我今天要竞选英语课代表。这次,我希望可以通过我的努力,成为老师的助手,同学的榜样,我相信我有能力竞选上英语科代表。

我是个活泼开朗的男孩,热爱集体,团结同学,积极参加集体活动。我热爱英语,成绩在班里也是名列前茅。甚至有时候玩游戏我都是玩英语版的,虽然有些我不会念,但慢慢来,总是能学会的。如果我竞选成功,我一定会全心全意地为同学服务。我有责任心,也有能力为英语老师做好我力所能及的工作。在课上,我会带头积极举手发言;课下,如果有同学来问我不会的题,我也一定会耐心爽快地回答。如果遇到了一些难题,我会组织其他的同学共同探讨,并寻求老师的帮助。

假如我落选了,我也不会伤心。有句古语说“失败乃成功之母“,我还会继续努力,找出自己的不足,更加努力的改正,完善我自己,争取下次能竞选上。

希望大家能够支持我,投出手中神圣的一票吧!谢谢大家!

敬爱的老师、亲爱的伙伴:

新的一学期已经开始,我们进入了三年级的学习阶段,随之新学期的英语班干部竞选也开始了。

我在上学期的英语班干部工作中取得了一定的成绩,得到了老师和同学们的信任与支持。但是,人并不是十全十美的,在平时的上课当中,我有点不敢大胆举手发言,总是胆小如鼠,很害怕会出错,怕同学笑话。现在,我决定在新的学期里改掉这些毛病。争做一名合格的、优秀的英语班干部。

做一个合格的、优秀的英语班干部,我想首先要思想好、学习好、身体好。在新的学期我如果能当上英语班干部,我一定会用《小学生守则》严格要求自己行为规范,以身作则,认真学习,上好每一堂课,争做好事,认真负责做好本职工作,积极做好老师的小帮手、班委的小助手,如创造一个整洁优美的学习环境做出自己的贡献,让我们的班级在新的一学期中更上一层楼。

请大家投我一票吧!

Our common destiny

“ We are made wise not by the recollections of the past but by our responsibility for the future”

----George Bernard Shaw

China is faced with some enormous challenges as it enters the 21st century. In order to ensure the prosperity of our nation and its future generations we must confront and ultimately solve these challenges.

Some of the more pressing issues facing China are universal. These include environmental degradation, over population and the effects of globalization.

To overcome some of the things we need to implement include:

Enhancing our scientific and industrial technologies in such areas as IT, Bio- tech, AI and Cybernetics.

Further develop public infrastructure in under developed regions.

Promote education reform at all levels.

Introduce sustainable development initiatives.

The implementation of free trade agreement between China and ASEAN.

The benefit to China in introducing these initiatives will be significant and far-reaching. It is important to realize that these initiatives need to filter down through all elements of the society in China. For instance, cutting edge technologies and intellectual properties; the development of e-commerce based economy; an education system that encourages innovation and creativity; increased foreign investment; higher living standards; more efficient use of natural resources.

It is important for us to realize these reforms are both essential and necessary. These will help China to fulfill its vast and unrealized potential on the world stage. It will also contribute more to a globalized world of the new century.

As for the future our task is not to foresee but to enable.

我们的共同命运

“我们并不是靠回忆过去而变得睿智,我们之所以明智是由于我们有对未来的责任感”。

中国在迈向二十一世纪的同时,也面临着一些巨大的挑战,为了确保我国的繁荣及为子孙后代着想,我们必须面对挑战并最终从根本上解决它们。

一些中国即将面临的挑战迫切的问题是全球普遍存在的。这些问题包括环境恶化,人口过剩及全球化的影响。为了解决这些问题,我们需要实施以下措施:

(1)提高并增强我们的科学及产业技术,如在信息技术产业,生物技术领域,人工智能以及神经机械学领域;

(2)加快推动欠发达地区的公共设施建设;

(3)促进不同层次的教育改革;

(4)使可持续发展的观念深入人心;

(5)推行中国与东南亚联盟的自由贸易协定。

中国将受益于积极主动的采取具有重要深远意义的措施。认识到这些措施需要实施到中国社会的各个层面是重要的,从而带来广泛且深远的各种改善,如:边缘科技及知识产权;发展以电子商务为基础的经济;一种鼓励发明与创造的教育体制;更多的外国投资;更高的生活水平;更加有效的利用自然资源。

我们要意识到各项改革措施是根本的也是有必要的。这些将会促进中国在世界舞台上实现其巨大且尚未实现的潜力。

这也将会对全球化的新世纪做出贡献。

至于未来,我们的任务不是去预知未来,而是努力去使其成为现实。

大家好!我叫方吕灵。今天我要竞选的是英语课代表。政治老师告诉我们要想创造一个我们为之自豪的班集体,我们要各尽其能,发挥所长,把自己的热情和智慧奉献给集体。我在小学一直担任英语课代表,多年来辛勤的工作得到了老师们和同学们的认可。平时,我会抓住机会和老师及外国人交流,所以请大家放心我的口语和语音。我希望能够通过当上这个职位,做老师的小助手,同学们的小帮手,发现并学习更多同学身上的优点,改正我自己身上的缺点以及不足之处。与大家团结协作,互助前行,才能奏出最优美的乐章。希望大家为我投上神圣的一票!我定付出百倍的努力!

谢谢大家!

青春是珍贵的礼物,也是我们生命中的黄金时光。当我们年轻的时候,我们强壮健康。是时候让我们准备好成为负责任的公民。

青春一生只有一次,因此,重要的是我们不应该把这些年浪费在无所事事和糟糕的生活上。这也是时候了当我们的记忆最好的时候。在这段时间里,我们能够学到比什么时候更多的东西

我们变老了。在我们年轻的时候,我们热情高涨我们自己的目标。我们也努力克服我们生活中的障碍方式。

如果我们意识到青春是多么珍贵,我们就会在年轻时得到满足以及当我们变老的时候。如果我们浪费青春,我们将度过余生我们的生活希望我们能再次年轻。

几年前,我住在一个小镇的一幢建筑物中。对面有另一幢建筑物,离我住的地方只有几米远。那里住着一个我以前从未见过的女人。每天下午我都能见到她坐在窗户边,喝茶或者看书。

几个月后,我发现她的窗户太脏了,通过她家窗户看到的一切都很模糊。我不知道那个女人为什么不把窗户洗洗。

一个阳光灿烂的上午,我决定彻底清理一下我的公寓,包括清洗窗户。我一直忙到下午很迟才完成,然后,我坐在窗边小憩。多么令人惊讶啊!那个坐在窗户边的女人一下子变得清晰了!她的窗户是干净的!突然,我意识到我犯了一个错误。原来我一直在通过自家的脏窗户看她!

那对我来说是一个很重要的教训。从那以后,无论我什么时候想要判断一个人,我首先问问自己,“我看他时,我心灵之窗是否肮脏?”然后,我努力洗净我内心世界的窗户,只有这样我才能看清外面的世界。

尊敬的老师,亲爱的同学们

下午好!

今天我站在这个讲台上,很荣幸,也很激动。通过一个月的临时当选,我仍希望能继续当选英语课代表这个光荣的职位,我相信我会做得很好。

I like English very much. If I am really elected, I will try to service for you. I can help you study English well

如果我真的当选了英语课代表,我将竭尽全力,为大家服务,想方设法让大家学好英语。主动帮助同学增长对英语的兴趣。也希望通过当英语课代表来锻炼、磨练自己,加强自身的学习能力。

我有能力胜任这个职位,请大家相信我,我能行!

Believe me, I can do it!

谢谢大家,我的演讲完毕。

我叫鑫小鑫

看在你这么有诚意的份上,给你贴一个经典的演讲,绝对是名人的,长了点,不过有周杰伦那种口速3分钟也够了..包你语惊四座. 先来英文的: Thank you so much. Thank you all Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company. I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you--to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked and sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors, (APPLAUSE)who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise. To the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be." To the young people, like 13-year-old Ann Riddle from Mayfield, Ohio, who had been saving for two years to go to Disney World, and decided to use her savings instead to travel to Pennsylvania with her mom and volunteer there as well. To the veterans and the childhood friends, to New Yorkers and Arkansans who traveled across the country, telling anyone who would listen why you supported me. To all those women in their 80s and their 90s, born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign. I've told you before about Florence Steen of South Dakota, who was 88 years old, and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside. Her daughter and a friend put an American flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot. She passed away soon after, and under state law, her ballot didn't count. But her daughter later told a reporter, "My dad's an ornery old cowboy, and he didn't like it when he heard mom's vote wouldn't be counted. I don't think he had voted in 20 years. But he voted in place of my mom." To all those who voted for me, and to whom I pledged my utmost, my commitment to you and to the progress we seek, is unyielding. You have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives, and you have humbled me with your commitment to our country. Eighteen million of you from all walks of life--women and men, young and old, Latino and Asian, African-American and Caucasian, rich, poor and middle-class, gay and straight--you have stood strong with me. And I will continue to stand strong with you, every time, every place and every way that I can. The dreams we share are worth fighting for. Remember--we fought for the single mom with a young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, "I'm doing it all to better myself for her." We fought for the woman who grabbed my hand, and asked me, "What are you going to do to make sure I have health care?" and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she can't afford insurance. We fought for the young man in the Marine Corps T-shirt who waited months for medical care and said, "Take care of my buddies over there--and then, will you please help take care of me?" We fought for all those who've lost jobs and health care, who can't afford gas or groceries or college, who have felt invisible to their president these last seven years. I entered this race because I have an old-fashioned conviction: that public service is about helping people solve their problems and live their dreams. I've had every opportunity and blessing in my own life--and I want the same for all Americans. Until that day comes, you will always find me on the front lines of democracy--fighting for the future. The way to continue our fight now--to accomplish the goals for which we stand--is to take our energy, our passion, our strength and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama the next president of the United States. Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him, and throw my full support behind him. And I ask all of you to join me in working as hard for Barack Obama as you have for me. I have served in the Senate with him for four years. I have been in this campaign with him for 16 months. I have stood on the stage and gone toe-to-toe with him in 22 debates. I have had a front row seat to his candidacy, and I have seen his strength and determination, his grace and his grit. In his own life, Barack Obama has lived the American Dream. As a community organizer, in the state senate, as a United States senator--he has dedicated himself to ensuring the dream is realized. And in this campaign, he has inspired so many to become involved in the democratic process and invested in our common future. Now, when I started this race, I intended to win back the White House, and make sure we have a president who puts our country back on the path to peace, prosperity and progress. And that's exactly what we're going to do by ensuring that Barack Obama walks through the doors of the Oval Office on Jan. 20, 2009. I understand that we all know this has been a tough fight. The Democratic Party is a family, and it's now time to restore the ties that bind us together and to come together around the ideals we share, the values we cherish and the country we love. We may have started on separate journeys--but today, our paths have merged. And we are all heading toward the same destination, united and more ready than ever to win in November and to turn our country around, because so much is at stake. We all want an economy that sustains the American Dream, the opportunity to work hard and have that work rewarded; to save for college, a home, and retirement; to afford that gas and those groceries and still have a little left over at the end of the month. An economy that lifts all of our people and ensures that our prosperity is broadly distributed and shared. We all want a health care system that is universal, high-quality and affordable, so that parents no longer have to choose between care for themselves or their children or be stuck in dead-end jobs simply to keep their insurance. This isn't just an issue for me, it is a passion and a cause, and it is a fight I will continue until every single American is insured--no exceptions, no excuses。 We all want an America defined by deep and meaningful equality--from civil rights to labor rights, from women's rights to gay rights, from ending discrimination to promoting unionization to providing help for the most important job there is: caring for our families. We all want to restore America's standing in the world, to end the war in Iraq and once again lead by the power of our values, and to join with our allies to confront our shared challenges, from poverty and genocide to terrorism and global warming. You know, I've been involved in politics and public life in one way or another for four decades. During those 40 years, our country has voted 10 times for president. Democrats won only three of those times. And the man who won two of those elections is with us today. We made tremendous progress during the 90s under a Democratic president, with a flourishing economy, and our leadership for peace and security respected around the world. Just think how much more progress we could have made over the past 40 years if we had a Democratic president. Think about the lost opportunities of these past seven years--on the environment and the economy, on health care and civil rights, on education, foreign policy and the Supreme Court. Imagine how far we could've come, how much we could've achieved, if we had just had a Democrat in the White House We cannot let this moment slip away. We have come too far and accomplished too much Now, the journey ahead will not be easy. Some will say we can't do it. That it's too hard. That we're just not up to the task. But for as long as America has existed, it has been the American way to reject "can't-do" claims, and to choose instead to stretch the boundaries of the possible through hard work, determination and a pioneering spirit. It is this belief, this optimism, that Senator Obama and I share, and that has inspired so many millions of our supporters to make their voices heard. So today, I am standing with Senator Obama to say: Yes we can. Together, we will work. We'll have to work hard to get universal health care. But on the day we live in an America where no child, no man and no woman is without health insurance, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we need to help elect Barack Obama our president. We'll have to work hard to get back to fiscal responsibility and a strong middle class. But on the day we live in an America whose middle class is thriving and growing again, where all Americans, no matter where they live or where their ancestors came from, can earn a decent living, we will live in a stronger America, and that is why we must elect Barack Obama our president. We'll have to work hard to foster the innovation that makes us energy-independent and lift the threat of global warming from our children's future. But on the day we live in an America fueled by renewable energy, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we have to help elect Barack Obama our president.再来中文的: 非常感谢各位!谢谢你们! 嗯~,这场聚会并不是我事先计划好的哦,但是我很感谢有你们的陪伴。 从今天开始我想要感谢所有的人——感谢那些倾注了你们的热情和希望在这次竞选活动中的人们,感谢那些长途跋涉,在街上挥舞自制标语的人们,感谢那些省吃俭用,踊跃募款的人们,感谢那些到各家各户敲门,给每个人打电话,并且和你的朋友邻居们讨论甚至争论起来的人们。(鼓掌)感谢那些通过电子邮件和网络进行捐助的人们,感谢那些在我们的公共事业上大量投资的人们。更要感谢那些带着小孩子参加我们活动的父亲母亲,他们轻声地告诉肩膀上的孩子们:“看啊,有梦想就能实现!” 我也应该感谢像安这样的年轻人们,她今年刚13岁,来自俄亥俄州的梅菲尔得市,她决定把过去两年中本为去迪士尼攒下的钱用来去宾夕法尼亚和妈妈一起充当志愿者。还有那些退伍老兵,孩提时的朋友,以及纽约和阿肯色地区的人们,感谢他们不远万里来到这里,是他们告诉那些愿意聆听的人们为什么要支持我。 感谢那些在女性可以有选举权之前出生的八、九十岁并在竞选活动中投票的女士们。我在之前提到过来自南达科他州的88岁的Florence Steen, 坚持让他的女儿带一张缺席选举人票到她的床边。她女儿和朋友在她的床边放了面美国国旗并帮助她填选票。没多久,她离开了人世。根据国家法律,她的选票不能生效。后来她的女儿对记者说:“我爸是个脾气不大好的老牛仔,听到我妈的选票失效时他很失落。我想他有二十多年没有投过票了,但他这次代替我妈妈投上了一票。” 感谢所有支持我的人们,那些我发誓过要尽我所能对他们奉献的人们,还要感谢我们坚韧不屈共同前进的过程。你们那些充满喜悦和悲伤的故事编织着我们的人生,并且激励和感动着我,你们对国家的承诺和担当使我自惭形秽 你们这1800万人来生活的各个阶层——无论男人和女人,年轻人和老年人,拉丁裔和亚裔,非裔美国人和高加索人,富足的、贫穷的和中产阶级的人,也无论同性恋者和非同性恋。你们给与我有力的支持。无论何时何地,我将尽我所能,坚定地和你们站在一起。我们拥有同样的梦想,值得我们一起为之奋斗,为之拼搏。 记住——我们奋斗,为了那个在学校和工作间不断奔波独自抚养年幼女儿的单身母亲,她说:“我所做的一切都是让我这个母亲更称职”。我们奋斗,为了那个抓住我的手问我:“你打算怎样来保证我的医疗保障?”,然后痛哭的妇女,那个同时做着三份工作,却依旧不能支付保险的女人。 我们奋斗,为了那个身着海军陆战队T恤的年轻人,那个为了医疗护理等待了数月的青年,他告诉我说:“请照顾好我在那里的朋友,然后请你也护理一下我好吗?” 我们奋斗,为了所有失去工作和医疗保障的人,为了所有不能支付油费、杂货费或学费的人,为了所有过去7年被他们的总统所忽略的人! 我参加这场竞选是因为我有一个古老而又传统的信念:公共事业应该帮人们解决问题,实现理想。在我的人生中,我得到了许多机会和祝福。但我希望所有美利坚民众也能够跟我一样。在那一天到来之前,你们都能看到我站在民主阵线的前沿,为着未来而奋斗。 现在继续我们的战斗并实现我们所秉持的目标的方式就是拿出我们的精力、我们的信念、我们的力量,尽我们所能去帮助Barack Obama成为美国下一任总统。 今天,在我宣布退出我的竞选之际,我祝贺他的胜利和他所参与的不平凡的竞选。我赞同他,并尽我所能在背后支持他。我恳求你们加入到我的这项工作来,就像你们曾经为我所做的那样,坚定的支持Barack Obama。 我已经和他在议会里共事了四年,在竞选里战斗了16个月,在台前近距离对峙了22场战役。我对他的参选了如指掌,也见识了他的力量与决心,他的风度与毅力, Barack Obama的一生都在追求美国梦(专指“人人都能追求富裕、自由,机会均等”)。从一个社区组织人做起,到国会参议院,再到美国参议员,每走下的一步都确保着梦的实现。这次竞选中,他鼓励很多人参与到民主进程中来,并激励他们为我们共同的将来出力献策。 当我开始竞选时,我的目的就只有一个,那就是赢回白宫,保证我们中走出一名总统,把我们的国家带回到和平,繁荣和发展的轨道上来。这就是我们为什么要力挺奥巴马2009年1月20日入主椭形办公室的原因。 现在,我明白,我明白这将会是一场艰难的斗争,但民主党本身是一家的。现在,正是时候,重新拉上把我们绑在一起的纽带,为我们同样的理想,珍视的价值,热爱的祖国而献身吧。 我们曾经殊途,但今日终于同归!我们朝同一目标前进,为了赢得11月的选举,我们更加团结,更加胸有成竹,看看我们的国家,因为这一切早已刻不容缓! 我们都想要维护美国之梦,想要劳有所得,为大学、家庭、退休存钱,能够付得起汽油和杂货,到月底还有点存款的经济。想要一个能够鼓舞我们所有人,确保基本上共同繁荣的经济! 我们都想要一个普遍的,高质量的、负担得起的医保系统,父母们不再要考虑照顾他们自己还是他们的孩子,或则不用为了保险而没日没夜地工作。这不仅仅是我的问题,这是激情,是事业,是我要继续奋斗的,为了让每个美国人,没有例外,没有借口的每个美国人都投保的斗争! 我们都希望有一个美国所界定的深入和有意义的平等;民事权到劳动权,妇女权到同性恋权,结束歧视到促进统一,再到为最重要的事情--关怀家庭--提供帮助。 我们都希望重塑美国在世界的形象,终止伊拉克战争,再一次让我们的价值观引导我们,同我们的盟友一起面对我们共同的,贫穷,杀戮,恐怖主义和全球变暖的挑战。 对我来说,这样或那样的公众生活和政治生涯已经有四十年了。在这四十年里,我们的国家举行了十次总统选举。民主党只赢得了其中三次。今天,赢得这三次中的两场的人,就和我们在一起。 90年代,在民主党的总统的领导下我们取得了极大的进步。经济的飞速发展和在和平和安全的领导地位使我们赢得了世界的尊重。可以想象,要是过去四十年我们也有一个民主党的总统,我们会取得如何巨大的进步。想一想过去的七年我们错失的良机吧,环境上的,经济上的,卫生保健上的,还有民权,教育,外交政策和最高法院上的。要是我们有一位民主党白宫主人,想一下我们走到了多远,我们取得了多少的成就。 我们不能够让机会错失,我们期待得太久,奋斗得太长。 而今,前路并不平坦。有人说,那太难了,不是我们力所能及的,我们不可能梦想成真。但自从美国诞生以来,我们就有一个美国式的对“不可能”说不的方式----通过努力的奋斗,坚定的信念和积极的心态尽全力触摸那叫做可能的界限。 这种信念,这份乐观,激励了我和Obama;这种信念,这份乐观,激励了百万的你们,让支持的声音响彻太空。 因此今天,我选择和Obama参议员站在一起说:没错,我们能。 我们将一道奋斗,我们将全力以赴,以实现各人都可享有的医疗保健。一旦到了美国出现一个没有孩童,没有男人,没有妇女得不到医疗保健的美国的那天,我们就是生活在一个更加强大的美国里。那就是为何,我们必须帮助奥巴马去成为总统。 我们将全力以赴,重掌财政责任和一个强势的中产阶级。一旦到了美国出现中产阶级再次繁荣成长,不管他们或者他们的祖先来自何方,能得到一个体面收入的那天,我们就是生活在一个更加强大的美国里。那就是为何,我们必须帮助奥巴马去成为总统。 我们将全力以赴,鼓励创新,以使能源需求独立,并让我们的孩子远离全球变暧的威胁。一旦到了美国使用了可再生能源的那天,我们就是生活在一个更加强大的美国里。那就是为何,我们必须帮助奥巴马去成为总统。

英语演讲稿:缘 2009 grievesoulLadies and gentlemen, People remain puzzled in spite of their great effort to understand the endless questions, so they invented the all-embracing word---“predestination”. In order to be more precise, different combinations were derived from it: love predestination, sinful predestination, evil predestination, and kind predestination etc., hence we have the sayings like: “Predestination will definitely bring you together despite the great distance while without predestination, you’ll never know each other even though you are standing fact to face” “A distant couple is tied up with the thread of predestination” and even the phrases and expressions like “the god of marriage”, “predestination without luck”, “luck without predestination”, “Coming across each other is a kind of predestination”, “Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road”, “They shall not marry each other unless they are predestined lovers”. If people still can not find answers, they turn to “reincarnation” for help. Lin Daiyu is always in tears just for repaying for the water Jia Baoyu had given her when she was a plant in her previous life in A Dream of the Red Mansions.In fact, the so-called “predestination” is often a kind of coincidence or chance encounter, even a kind of accident. If you don’t meet this person, you’ll surely meet some one else. But people insist on adding some colors of emotions or superstition, thus generating various religious factions, the main theories of which are no more than that of “reincarnation”, “heaven and hell” and “the ever-lasting soul” etc.But does anyone know anything about his previous life or his after life? What could he do even if he knew them? If he can’t grasp the present life, what’s the benefit of commenting on the visionary after life? Giving up today is the same as giving up tomorrow, for they are closely connected. How absurd it is to work like the horse or cattle in the present life in order to be above others in the next life.Have you ever seen emperor Qinshihuang reincarnate? Have you ever heard of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty going into another life? Where is now Monk Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty (What we know is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda)? Where is the Monkey King (The Flower and Fruit Mountain does exist, though)? And where can we find those great emperors such as Yao, Shun Yu and the influential philosophers like Confucius, Laozi and Zhuangzi?How many heavens do we find? Are they also divided into the oriental and the occidental world? Is God a Chinese or westerner? Which is the greatest religion among Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity, Catholicity and Islamism? All religions advocate doing good deeds and not killing, but why do they keep contending against each other, even fighting and killing among themselves? Is the paradise the same one in all religions? There’s only one sun in the sky, and there should be only one emperor in a country, but do all religions believe in the same God, or do they have different gods of their own? If all of us expected God’s help, wouldn’t God be too busy and too tired?Does God respect science? If not, why does he allow computers and telecommunications to run rampant? If it is God who created human beings, then doesn’t He feel out of control of what the human being are doing now (the nuclear weapons and bio-chemical weapons, etc.)?We human beings have an origin, and is it the same with God? Does God get married? Is God hereditary, or is it the same ever-lasting one? We have all those questions but who can answer them?.Predestination needs us to strive for; friendship needs us to maintain; good will needs us to treasure and future needs us to create. There is no Savior, nor Goddess of Mercy who once saved people in the past but cannot do anything to help the people at the present. The world is developing too fast.People have to work together and associate with each other. Talking about predestination, it’s just a kind of explanation about what has happened, and I’m afraid nobody can predict it before hand. From ancient times till the 1980’s, once getting married, the couple had to stick to each other for their whole life. Can we say it is because of their life-long predestination? It is just because of the marriage system. In the western countries, life-long marriage is rare. Can we say it is because their predestination makes it so? It is actually the result of human nature. The color of love could be attached to predestination, but not the color of superstition. Predestination is a lovely word which we should treasure and respect. In the present world, we should always follow the win-win or multi-win policy, instead of being single-handed. In order to achieve success, we must gain mass support instead of indulging in self-admiration. We might as well call the communication, the cooperation, the common concerns and the common aspirations of human beings “predestination”. 缘人世间有许多东西即没有答案,也解释不清。例如几十亿的人类,为什么就你们俩结为夫妻?为什么天天在一起没感情,素不相识的会一见钟情?为什么一家人会天天吵架,又吵而不散?为什么看去很般配的又不能结为连理?为什么一个为另一个付出的太多?为什么多情总被无情弃?……百思不得其解,于是人们创造了“缘”这个包罗万象、包容万物的词汇。为了左右逢缘,人们又派生了“情缘”、“孽缘”、“善缘”、“恶缘”等几大支脉。诸如:“有缘千里来相会,无缘对面不相识”,“千里姻缘一线牵”,甚至还创造了“月下佬”、“有缘无份”、“有份无缘”、“相逢即是缘”,“冤家路窄”,“不是冤家不聚头”等。再解释不通,那就求助于“前生后世”了。连林黛玉流泪都是为了还前世欠贾宝玉的浇灌之情。其实所谓“缘份”,经常是一种巧合、偶遇,甚至误打误撞。你不遇到这个人,你也会遇到别的人。但人们执意将其加上感情色彩,甚至迷信色彩。由此竟引出了无数的宗教门派。其主要理论无非是“前生后世”之说,“天堂地狱”之说,和“精神不灭”之说。可是前生谁知道?知道又怎样?后世谁予知?知道又怎样?今天在眼前的尚不能把握,还谈什么虚无飘渺的后世?放弃今天,其实无异于放弃明天,因为二者是连续的。为了来世高人一等,宁愿今世当牛做马,是很荒唐的。谁见过秦始皇转世?谁听说过汉武帝托生?唐僧今在哪里(空余大雁塔)?孙悟空又在何方(花果山确有其名)?三皇五帝至于今,包括孔子、老子、庄子等诸子,我们还能在哪里找到他们的身影?天堂有几个?是否也分东西方?上帝是中国人、还是外国人?佛教、道教、基督教、天主教、伊斯兰教……哪个教更正确?哪个教更伟大?各教都主张行善、不杀生,为什么彼此、甚至内部仍争斗不休、甚至打打杀杀?西方极乐世界是各教共享吗?天无二日,国无二主,上帝是大家一个,还是各教不一?都希望上帝保佑,上帝是否太忙,太累?上帝是否崇尚科学?如不,怎么会允许电脑、电讯泛滥?如果是上帝造人,现在人们的所作所为(核武器、化学武器等)是否让上帝感到失控?人有起源,上帝是否也有起源?上帝有无婚姻?是世袭,还是千古一帝? 许多问题也只能是问问,谁能作答?缘份也要争取,友情也要维护。恩赐也要珍惜,未来全靠创造。没有救世主。观世音能救古代人,帮不了现代人。世界发展太快了。人们总要共事,总要交往。说缘,也只是事后的解释,事前谁能予料?中国古代,乃至八十年代前,基本上一婚到底,能说就都是一世的缘?不过是中国的婚姻制度使然。而西方很少一婚到底的,你能说就都是缘本肤浅?其实是生活逻辑的自然体现。缘份可以加进感情色彩,但不必添加迷信份额。“缘份”这个词是蛮可爱的,要珍惜和维护。当代世界,任何事情都应该是双赢或多赢,而不应是唯我独享。事业要成功,就一定要搞浩浩荡荡,不能搞孤家寡人。我们不如就把人们这种沟通、这种共识、这种合作、这种情感叫作“缘”。

吃货阿呀

Last week a few foreign media outlets (Reuters and ABC) picked up on a China Daily story about one Beijing restaurant's attempts to ban smoking. This English-language China Daily report itself appears to be an update of an earlier story in the Chinese press from last October that reported on the restaurant's original decision to introduce the smoking ban. Both the original report and the foreign rewrites (the Reuters report being filed under the Oddly Enough News tag) were light-hearted stories that bemoaned but also chuckled at this ridiculous attempt at stopping Beijing customers from enjoying their obligatory post-meal puff. The articles relied on humorous stories of customers locking fuwuyuan out of private rooms and included the at-first-glance-startling statistic that the Liulitun branch of Meizhou Dongpo has seen customer numbers plummet to "about 80 percent of that enjoyed by other restaurants across the street."But the China Daily article on which these foreign reports were based was riddled with errors and inconsistencies and also missed the big story - that the Beijing government IS indeed planning to ban smoking in all the city's restaurants, as well as other public places, including hotels, hostels, training centers and resorts.The most obvious problem with all the reports is their claim that this branch of Meizhou Dongpo is in fact the "city's first non-smoking restaurant." This is plainly untrue – vegetarian favorite Pure Lotus has been a non-smoking restaurant since it first opened, and as a comments over at Danwei's post on this topic point out, vegetarian restaurant Still Thoughts (Jingsi) also enforces a non-smoking policy. In addition to these obvious examples, Dr. Evelyn Fang of the Beijing United Family Hospital just last year put together a list of 135 Beijing restaurants that offer smoke-free areas (that's Beijing reported on it here and have since included info about restaurant smoking policies in our online directories). Dr. Fang also noted that Starbucks, Sizzler and the chic Red Capital Club are all smoke-free venues.For those interested in taking a look at Dr. Fang's list (and adding to it), you can e-mail her at evelyn.fang@ufh.com.cn..1. Should China introduce a complete ban on smoking in restaurants and bars? 中国是否该在餐馆之类的地方完全禁烟.The big news is that Beijing is considering putting into effect a new, more stringent anti-smoking law that will increase the coverage of the current smoking restrictions. At the moment, smoking is banned (with differing levels of success) in schools, libraries, cinemas, theaters, museums, galleries, stores, banks, post offices and on public transport. The proposed new law, which is currently open to public comment – you can leave your thoughts here – will expand the areas covered to include offices, hotels, restaurants, hostels, training centers, resorts, the areas surrounding gyms, health clubs and open public places. Smoking will also be banned in the offices, meeting places, cafeterias, bathrooms, hallways, and elevators of Beijing's government buildings, enterprises and institutions. However, restaurants and hotels will be able to set up clearly marked and well-ventilated indoor smoking areas or smoking rooms. The law stipulates that a fine of up to RMB 50 can be imposed on those who break the ban.The introduction of the law is said to have its basis in both a pledge made by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao back in 2004 that the Beijing Olympics would be a smoke-free games and also in an attempt to rein in the huge effects that smoking is having on the health of Chinese people. The latest estimates put the number of Chinese smokers at somewhere above 300 million, with 5,000,000 of these being under-age smokers. The International Herald Tribune estimates that smoking "kills about a million people a year in China and costs an estimated $5 b..." They also raise the point that a large chunk of the central government's revenue comes from tobacco, with 240 billion yuan, or $31 billion, in tobacco-related taxes being collected in 2005. Moreover, according to the BBC, "around there are currently 2,000 smoking-related deaths per day in China..."According to China Daily, this new smoking ban would affect at least 4 million smokers in Beijing. The public has until Feb 1 to submit their comments, and, if there are no major objections, the law is expected to go into effect early this year. The draft law comes close on the heels of what appears to be a successful introduction of a smoking ban in Beijing's taxis that was introduced last October..
