经典英文短篇演讲之一

<The importance of smiling and kindness>

Ladies and Gentlemen, good evening.

Today I’d like to talk about the importance of smiling and kindness.

Life is like a mirror.

When you smile, people will smile back.

When you treat other people kindly,

they will treat you kindly in return.

Try to spend one day smiling and being kind

to everyone you meet.

You will see a big difference in your life.

If you keep on smiling and being kind,

smiling and kindness will become your habits.

If everyone tried to do this, the world would

be a kinder, brighter, and happier place.

Start smiling right away.

That’s all. Thank you.

<I want to change my life >

I work extremely hard every day, but I’m very tired. I need to work smarter, not harder.

I must find better ways to do my job.

I must find more time to enjoy life.

I know hard work is a part of everybody’s life. But I work too hard.

My hard work is ruining my health.

My hard work is killing me.

Other people have time for fun,

going to bars and going to parties.

All I do is get in my car and go to work every day. This life is too hard.

I need to make a fresh start.

<Life is about choices>

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I want to tell you something very important today. I want to tell you that life is about choices.

You can choose to be miserable

or you can choose to enjoy life.

You can choose to improve your health

or you can choose to destroy it.

I hope you will make correct choices.

I hope you will choose to

enjoy your family,

enjoy your friends,

enjoy your work,

and enjoy your everyday life.

Life is a gift

and we really should enjoy every minute of it.

Join the group of people who make good choices. Enjoy your life!

<The secret of happiness>

Ladies and Gentlemen,

today I’m going to talk about happiness.

Where does happiness come from?

It doesn’t come from other people.

It doesn’t come from material things.

It doesn’t come from having a lot of money and power. It doesn’t come from being popular.

It comes from giving love to other people.

It comes from giving your best effort to everything you do. It comes from getting satisfaction from helping other people. It comes from growing smarter and wiser every day. The happiness you feel is equal to the love you give. The more you give, the happier you will be.

<Three Tips about life>

Ladies and Gentlemen, good evening.

There are three things I want to talk about today. The first thing is, think before you speak.

Say positive things, don’t hurt other people with words.

The second thing is, treasure every breath.

Life is precious.

We shouldn’t take anything for granted.

The third thing is, nothing is impossible.

If you think you can, you can.

Never doubt yourself.

You can do anything.

These three things have helped me throughout my life. Thank you.

We must be thankful for every breath.

Chen Huijun

We each long to do something great with our life. But what is greatness? How can a person really make an impact on the world around them? How can we ex－perience the quality of life? The

definition of the qual－ity of life may differ from person to person. The way for people to achieve a quality of life may vary from one another.

However one thing is certain, the quality of life is measured by little things.

"Every day we're called to do small things with great love." Thus claimed the U.S. President Gorge W. Bush in his inaugural speech. Through touching every little thing, Helen Keller knew the outer world, and longed for three days to see to emphasize sharply the values of life.And I still remember my childhood dream was to become a millionaire so I could bring about a happy life to my parents. But now it seems that by frequent going back home, or a simple phone call to my family on a very ordinary day or a letter enclosed with a smiling picture of me makes thern even happier. How much greater difference can these little things make than a million yuan.

The so-called little things are merely the causes of great things; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of

departure, which generally speaking, decides the whole future of the quality of life.

To strengthen the relationship with my friends, I always wonder, how can it really work without our mu－tual understanding and support by communication. To show my sincere appreciation for my

teachers'persis－tence in giving the lectures when they are ill, what can be better than extending a cup of tea to them during the break or a piece of greeting words. To fulfill my obligation to society, I'd like to begin from giving my hands and showing my love to those in need.

It is by studying the little things that we attain the great art of having a quality life. Life is long, but no matter how long it takes me to go, I should and will cover it little by little and

reach the climax of my life at last, for I believe constant dripping wears away a stone.

So enjoy your life by doing the little things, for little things are what inspire great things.

Thank you!

点滴小事品味人生

陈惠军

在漫长的生命过程中，我们每个人都渴望着做一两件伟大的事情。但是什么样的事情才能算伟大呢？一个人的人生价值究竟能有多大呢？我们应如何去体味人生的价值呢？这，我们不得不承认，不同的人对人生价值有着不同的定义，不同的人获取人生价值的途径也不尽相同，但是，有一点却是肯定的：点滴小事体现人生。

美国总统乔治·布什在他的就职演讲中说：每一天，我们都应饱含深情地去做好每一件小事。作家海伦·凯勒只能通过触摸生活中的每一种物品，来感觉和认识这个丰富多彩的外部世界，在她的文章———《假如给我三天光明》中，她是多么渴望能得到光明去充分品味她的人生，哪怕只有三天！可是，这只是她的一个梦想，无法实现的。这使我想起我儿时的梦想：有朝一日自己能成为一个百万富翁，那样我就能让父母过上快乐幸福的生活。但是，现在我发现，经常回家看看自己日益年迈的父母，在很普通的日子给家里打个电话或捎封信回家并附上自己一张面带微笑的照片，也照样甚至更能让他们感觉到幸福和满足。是的，这些小事所起的作用甚至是一百万元钱也做不到的。

事实上，我们所说的小事恰好是那些伟大事情的萌芽和开端，是决定一个有意义人生的旅程和起点。

我时常想，如果没有最为简单的交流沟通和最起码的理解与支持，我们就无法增进朋友之间的情谊；而对于那些有病在身但仍在坚持给学生上课的老师，课间如能为他们端上一杯清茶或递上一张问候的纸条，也能很好地表达出我们对老师的真诚和感激之情；要履行自己对社会的责任和义务，我们不妨从小事做起，从给那些需要帮助的人以援助之手和真爱之心开始。

也只有对点滴小事认真对待，我们才能获得一个真正有意义有价值的人生，因为点滴小事能焕发无穷光芒。路再长，也长不过我们的脚，水滴石穿，绳锯木断，只要我们脚踏实地一步一步向前走，我们定能达到人生的高峰。

让我们的生命从做好每件小事开始吧！因为伟大孕育其中！

谢谢！

The Earth,the only Home for Human beings

Jiang Shengliang

Dear friends,

Good afternoon. I'm very glad to see you here. The topic of my speech is “The Earth, The Only Home For The Human Beings".

Do you know that dust storms had swept through North cities

several times this spring? Dust has enveloped the sun and turned the sky an eerie yellow. People haven't found a way to fight against the dust storms but to be in their homes and offices. Because a cloud of loess filled the whole sky, there were many traffic accidents, which loss in lives and property was beyond our estimates.

We know that China already produces 11 per cent of the world's greenhouse－gas emissions. We also know that the Huanghe River once dried up, the grassland of Inner Mongolia rapidly turns into desert and there are many cities where the water we live by is lacking. We can't forget that more than 4000 people who lived in London had been killed by thick black smog in the winter of 1952. We also are aware that nearly 50,000 species become extinct and 2.7 million acre lush, fertile cropland turns into barren land every year in the world...

These numbers are so startling; the scenes are too horrible to look at!

Of course, I am sure, everyone here like the blue sky and white clouds. There is no one who dislikes the clean river and verdant mountains extending a thousand li. We are eager to have a breath of fresh air freely. However, we have to deal with so much endless noise and breathe the air mixed up with dust. We have nothing to do but stride over so many sewage ditches...

This is the earth, our only homeland we human live on. It is the earth that supplies us with enough food, water and oxygen. It's also the earth that supplies us with deep enough atmospheric layer in order to protect us from the hurt of ultraviolet ray... Although the earth gives us all that she has, we still hurt her so deeply. She is covered all over with cuts and bruises. She is groaning and shedding tears. To our surprise, we human have been conscious that we will not survive if the earth remains to be hurt, but there is still so much sever deforestation and damage to the grassland. We still

waster raw materials, destroy forest for more arable land and don t save on water?

Wake up, wake up to reality. We have suffered so many heavy losses. Can t we come to realize our error? We must draw the lesson from them. We can t follow the same old road to ruin, and we can t sit here and watch our only home－the earth turning into another Loulan. Today, I stand here and want to call out at the top of my voice: the development of economy needn t pay the cost of

environment pollution. Please don t hurt our only home again. If the earth remains to be destroyed, if the land, water and atmosphere we lived by remains to be polluted, my dear friends, where will we go and live? So improving the environment is to save us human beings. Dear friends, let s begin to act now, act from us, act from trifles. I believe firmly that the earth will take on a new look if everyone tries one s best to do it.

My speech is over. Thank you!

地球，人类惟一的家园

亲爱的朋友：

下午好！很高兴在这儿见到你们。我今天演讲的题目是：地球，人类惟一的家园。

不知大家有没有听说，今年春天沙尘暴已多次席卷了北方的大部分城市。尘土遮天蔽日，人们不得不呆在办公室或家里。黄沙漫天，由此而造成的交通事故及损失更是无法估量。

我们知道现在中国排放出的温室气体已占全世界排放量的11％；我们也知道黄河曾一度断流，内蒙古草原正在急剧沙漠化，各大城市的生活用水也变得越来越紧张；我们不会忘记1952年冬天，伦敦有4000多市民死于一片浓黑的烟雾之中；我们还意识到世

界上每年大约有5万种生物正在悄悄绝迹，270万英亩的青草繁茂的草原和肥沃的土地正在变成寸草不生的沙漠??

触目惊心的数字，惨不忍睹的一幕幕，无不让人痛心！

是的，我相信，在座的各位，没有谁不喜欢蓝天白云，没有谁不喜欢清澈见底的河水和绵延不绝翠绿的山脉，更是渴望能在纯净清新的空气中自由自在地呼吸。可是，每天我们不得不面对无休无止的噪音，呼吸着充满灰尘的毒气，小心地走过臭气熏天的污水地带??

这就是地球——我们人类所赖以生存的惟一的家园，是她供给我们生存所需的食物、水和氧气，是她提供给我们大气保护层，以免我们遭受紫外线的伤害??地球，我们惟一的家园默默地献出了她所有的一切，而我们却深深地伤害了她，遍体鳞伤的她正在痛苦地呻吟，正在伤心地流泪。更为可悲的是，我们人类明知伤害了她，明知伤害了她势必带来威胁自身生存的恶果，可是他们还在继续滥伐森林，乱垦草地；他们还不知道退耕还林，节约用水??

醒醒吧，醒醒吧，难道惨痛的代价和血的教训还不能让我们清醒吗？我们不能重蹈历史的覆辙，我们不能让我们惟一的家园——地球重演楼兰的一幕！在这里，我要大声呼吁：经济的发展并不一定要以破坏环境为代价，请不要再伤害我们的家！

如果我们的生存环境再这样恶化下去的话，如果我们赖以生存的土壤、水和空气再这样被污染下去的话，同学们，我们人类将上哪才能找到我们的生存之地呢？所以拯救地球就是拯救我们人类自己，就是拯救我们的未来。同学们，让我们行动起来，从我做起，从小事做起。我坚信，只要人人都伸出手，尽自己所能，我们定会重返那个鸟语花香、莺歌燕舞、生机盎然的美好家园！

我的演讲完了，谢谢大家！

My Definition of Failure

Mo Junhua

S－U－C－C－E－S－S. SUCCESS. Success is the catch-word of the times. It

goes without saying that almost all of us want to be successful. Like it or not, however, we must admit that it s not easy to achieve success. More often than not, we have to deal with its opposite, namely failure.

But first of all, what is failure? It is hard to define, because dif-ferent people have different answers. However, as far as I'm con-cerned, I think real failure is not to try hard.

It's commendable that you set your mind on the best and

con-stantly strive for it. At many times, however, it's unlikely that you'll do the best, because of the scarcity of No. 1 and because of the fact that the attainment of the very best involves many things, some of which are beyond your expectation. In addition to your own merit, that of your competitors also plays an important part. So it is a more sensible, but no less commendable thing for you to compete with yourself, not with others. You don t have to do best. But you should always try to do your best in whatever you are determined to do. If you have given it 100 percent, you are not a

failure, even though you are outplayed by others. Because you have given it 100 percent, there s nothing to regret, nor is there any need to blame yourself. Instead, you should give credit to yourself for trying.

I don t like finding excuses for our failures, because we haven t failed at all. Take myself for example. Last year, I eolled for the Sports Meet in my university and competed in the 3,000－meter race. I did this not because I m gifted in or good at running, but because I wanted to fulfill a childhood dream. I had been an

in-competent student of physical education or P.E., ever since I was a primary school student. As a weak student of P.E., I never got a chance to participate in a sports meet. I envied my classmates who were good at sports. I used to dream of becoming one of them and displaying my skills in a sports meet. After I entered university, I spent much of my spare time on physical exercises, such as running, the long jump. Although I can run much faster than before, I m not capable of winning a prize or a good place in a campus－wide run-ning competition. In spite of that, I still entered for the event,

be-cause I wanted to challenge myself and fulfill my athletic dream. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not going in for this race. But I chose to accept the challenge and face the difficul-ties. I trained hard for the race, so when I came out last but one in the competition, I didn t call my attempt a failure, because I had tried and struggled.

Real failure is not to try hard. “I will forgive myself if I fail; I won t forgive myself if I don't try”, because “It's better to have fought and lost than not to fight at all”.

Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic movement once said：“the most important thing in Olympic Games is not to win, but to take part, just like the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered, but to have fought well.”

But what if we did fail in something? Simple. First, don t panic, because failure is not the end of the world. As the English saying goes, he who falls today may rise tomorrow. Second, try, try again, because nothing is really over until the moment we stop try-ing. So long as we persist and never give up, we will succeed eventually.No failure is sweet. However, just as bitter medicine cures sickness, failure may prove to be very instructive, so long as we can put it in perspective. There is a saying that failure is the mother of success. It's natural for us to get depressed for a

certain period of time, but we shouldn't inflate the importance of our temporary setback and be disheartened by setbacks, even never recover. We should be undaunted by failures and motivated to strive

第一天：THE NEWSPAPER 报 纸

Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read it. It supplies us with a variety of news every day. It tells us the political situation of the world. If we form the habit of reading the newspaper, we shall (will) get enough knowledge to cope with our circumstances. 现今报纸拥有极大的价值，人人都应该看它。它每天提供我们各种类类的消息。它告诉我们世界政治局势。如果我们养成看报的习惯，我们就能得到足够的知识来因应我们的环境。 学生虽然每天须做功课，但他们至少应该匀出一两个小时来看报。哪些，他们不但能增加知识而且也能赶上时代。总而言之，看报对学生很有益处。

第二天：MY DAILY LIFE 我的日常生活

Though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try hard to adapt myself to it. Why? Because I intend to be a good student. I wish to render service to my country.

I get up at six o’clock every day. After I wash my face and brush my teeth, I begin to review my lessons. I go to school at seven o’clock.

After school is over, I return home. We usually have supper at seven o’clock.

Then I begin to do my homework. I want to finish it before I go to bed.

虽然我的日常生活十分单调，但我却竭力设法去适应它。为什么？因为我打算做一个好学生，希望将来为国家服务。

我每天六点起床、洗脸刷牙后，就开始复习功课，七点钟我就去上学。

放学后，我就回家了。我们通常在七点钟吃晚餐，之后我就开始做家庭作业，希望在睡觉前把它做完。

第三天：A MODEL STUDENT 模范学生

Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not. So far as I know, everybody intends to be (become) a model student.

However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing. First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge. A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed. Secondly, he must remember to improve his health. Only a strong man can do great tasks. Thirdly, he should receive moral education. If his conduct is not good, no one will consider making friends with him.

你价意被称为坏学生吗？当然不。就我所知，每个人都打算做模范学生。

然而，做模范学生却不容易。第一，他必须尽力获得知识（求知）。一个没有足够知识的人是不会成功的。第二，他必须记住促进健康。只有强壮的人才能做大事。第三，他应该接受道德教育。如果他品行不好，没有人会考虑和他交朋友的。

第四天：HOW TO GET HAPPINESS 如何获得快乐

There is no doubt that happiness is the most precious thing in the world. Without it, life will be empty and meaningless. If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points.

First, health is the secret of happiness (the key to happiness). Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life.

Secondly, happiness consists in contentment. A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress.

无疑的快乐是世界上最宝贵的东西。没有它，人生将是空虚的而且毫无意义的。如果你希望知道如何获得快乐，你须注意下面两点。

健康是快乐的要诀。唯有身体强壮的人才能享受人生的乐趣。

快乐在于知足。一个不满于现状的人终是处在痛苦之中。

第五天：BOOKS 书籍

As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things. They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and strengthen our character. In other words, they are our good teachers and wise friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.

Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of books. It is true that we can derive benefits from good books. However, bad books will do us more harm than good. 如众所周知，书籍教我们学习人生，真理，科学以及其它许多有用的东西。它们增加我们的知识，扩大我们的心胸并加强我们的品格。换句话说，它们是我们的良师益友。这是为什么我们的父母终是鼓励我们要多读书的理由。

读书是一好事，但我们必须多加注意书的选择。不错，我们能从好书中获得益处。然而，坏书却对我们有害无益。

第六天：A TRIP TO THE COUNTRY 乡村游记

One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to the a trip to the country. She bade me take good care of him.

While we were walking along the road, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently. We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees. The scenery was indeed very pretty (beautiful).

When we felt tired, we returned home. We saw Mother (our mother) wait (waiting) for us at the door.

有一个星期日，我母亲叫我带小弟弟去乡村游历。她吩咐我要好好照料他。

当我们沿着道路行走的时候，太阳灿烂地照耀着，微风轻轻地吹着。我们看见美丽的花儿对我们微笑着，并听见鸟儿在树上唱着悦耳的歌曲，风景实十分美丽。

当我们感觉到疲倦的时候，我们就回家了。我们看见母样正在门口等候我们。

第七天：BE PATRIOTIC 要爱国

It is the duty of every citizen to make the country rich and powerful (To make the country rich and strong is...). In order to accomplish this object one must be patriotic (love his country). I consider this an unchangeable truth.

How can a student love his country (be patriotic)? I find my answer very simple and clear. He must study hard and store up knowledge so as to serve his (the) country in the future. If every student can do according to what I said, the country will certainly be rich and powerful.

要使国家富强是每个公民的责任。为了达到此目的，必须爱国。我认为这是一条不易的定理。 一个学生如何才能爱国呢？我发觉答复很简单明了。他必须用功读书并积储知识以便将来服务国家。如果每个学生能按照我所说的去做，国家一定会富强。

第八天：THE VALUE OF TIME 爱惜时光

An English proverb says that time is money. I consider it (this) wrong. Why? Because we all know that we can earn money be work but can not in any way get back time (in anyway). For this reason, we may (can) say that time is more valuable than money.

Many people do not know the value of time. It (this) is indeed a great pity. We must bear (keep) in mind that wasting time is equal to wasting your life.

英国有句谚语说，时间就是金钱。我认为这是不对的。为什么？因为我们大家都知道我们能够用工作赚钱，但无论如何却无法把时间争取回来。基于此种理由，我们可以说时间比钱钱更宝贵。

许多人不知爱惜时光。这确实是可惜的。我们必须记住浪费时间等于浪费生命。 第九天：WHY SHOULD WE STUDY ENGLISH 为什么我们要学英文

If you want to ask me why we should study English, my answer will be simple and clear. Now let me enumerate the reasons one by one in the following.

In the first place, English has become an international language. If you know English, you van make a trip round the world without being misunderstood.

In the second place, most valuable books, newspapers and magazines are written in English. If you wish (hope) to get knowledge, you must learn English.

如果你要问我们为什么我们要学英文。我的答复很简单明了。现在让我来把我的理由一一列举在下面：

英文已成为一种国际语言。如果你通晓它，你可以环游世界不会被人误解。

大多数有价值的书籍，报纸和杂志都是用英文写的。如果你希望获得知识，你必须学习英文。 第十天：MY BIRTHDAY 我的生日

Yesterday was my birthday, so some of my classmates sent me presents. Mother prepared a tea party for me. I invited all of them to come and take part in it.

The tea party began at half past six. There were cold drinks and refreshments. We ate, talked and laughed. We felt that we were the happiest men in the world.

Time passed quickly. In a twinkling, the clock on the wall struck nine. We could not but say ―Good-bye‖ to one another.

昨天是我生日，所以有几位我的同班同学送我礼。母亲给我准备一个茶会。我邀请他们都前来参加。

茶会下午六点半开始。有冷饮和点心。我们又吃又谈又笑。我们觉得是世界上最快乐的人。 时间过得很快。转瞬间，墙上的钟敲九点了。我们不得不互道再见。

第十一天：HOW TO SPEND SUNDAYS 如何消度星期日

Some of us always spend Sundays aimlessly. We can seldom derive profits from the valuable hours (time) of Sundays. This is indeed a great pity. Though Sundays are set aside as a day for rest, we must make good use of them.

We know that our school lessons are usually not sufficient. We should often utilize Sundays to read reference books. In this way we will increase our knowledge. Besides, we must be engaged in sports or outing so as to strengthen our bodies.

我们许多人终是把星期日毫无目的地消度掉。这确实是十分可惜。我们很少能从星期日的宝贵时光中获得益处。虽然星期日是被指定为一个休息的日子，但是我们却应好好利用它。 我们知道我们学校的功课通常是不够的。我们应时常利用星期日来阅读参考书。如此我们的知识就会增加了。此外，我们必须从事运动或郊游以便强壮我们的身体。

第十二天：HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY 诚为上策

There is an English proverb which says (saying) ―Honesty is the best policy.‖ It signifies the importance of honesty.

What are the benefits of honesty? If you are honest to others, they will be honest to you in return. When you are sad, they will comfort you. When you are in trouble, they will help you.

There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and (be) regarded as a public enemy.

英国有一句谚语说“诚为上策”。它说明了诚的重要性。

诚的益处是什么？如果你对他人诚实，他们也会对你诚实作为报答。当你忧悉的时候，他们会安慰你。当你是处在困难中的时候，他们会帮助你。

无法在这里数述不诚实的害处。一言以蔽之，一个不诚实的人会被人看轻的而且被看作为一个公敌。

第十三天：HOW EXERCISE HELPS 运动的利益

If our bodies are not strong, our spirit to do things will certainly be quite dull. And at the same time, we are lack of energy (ies) to study. Diseases will only attack the weak, but not the strong. Why are our bodies not strong? Because we do not pay attention to exercise. For this reason, we students must often take different kinds (sorts) of exercise in the gym.

Exercise helps us (to) strengthen our bodies and avoid disease. It also teaches us cooperation, for most exercise is played by team.

如果我们的身体不强壮，我们做事的精神一定会十分迟钝。而且同时，我们也缺少足够的精力来读书。疾病只为侵击体弱的人而不是强壮的人。

为什么我们的身体会不强壮呢？因为我们不注意运动。基于此种理由，我们学生必须时常在运动场做不同种类的运动。

运动帮助我们强壮身体并避免疾病。它也教我们合作，因为大多数的运动都是团体游玩的。 第十四天：THE BENEFITS OF TRAVELING 旅行的益处

I am always interested in traveling. My reasons are quite (extremely) simple and clear. If anybody is not satisfied with my viewpoint(s), I shall be greatly surprised at his ways of thinking.

In the first place, traveling increases our knowledge. Only by traveling can we see （因为用（only）开头，主动词须颠倒）things outside our home town.

In the second place, traveling is good to our health. While we are traveling, we usually exercise our bodies.

In conclusion, I earnestly hope that everybody must seize (grasp at) the opportunity of traveling. 我对旅行终是感觉有趣。我的理由非常简单时了。如果任何人对我的观点不满意的话，我将对他的想法会大大吃惊。

旅行增加我们的知识。只有藉旅行我们可以看到我们故乡以外的东西。

旅行对我们的健康有益。当我们旅行的时候，我们通常运动我们的身体。

第十五天：HOW TO BE A GOOD CITIZEN 如何做一个好公民

My aim is to become a good citizen so as to be able to render service to the (my) country. However, to become a good citizen is not an easy thing. He has many duties to fulfill.

The first duty of a good citizen is to love his country. He is to (must) be ready to sacrifice even his own life for the country.

His second duty is to obey the law and help the government (to) maintain order. If everybody can do so, the country will be rich and strong (powerful).

我的志向是做一个好公民以便能给国家效力。然而，做一个好公民不是一件容易的事情。他有许多责任要尽。

一个好公民第一件责任是爱他的国家。他须准备为国家牺牲自己的生命。

他第二件责任是服从法律并且帮助政府维持治安。如果人人都能这样做的话，国家必定富强。 第十六天：THE NATIONAL FLAG 国旗

it is the duty of every citizen to honor the national flag. Why? Because the national flag is the symbol of a (the) country. To respect it means to respect the country. In other words, if a man loves his country, he must love the national flag.

In school, the national flag is usually raised at a certain time every day. Then the principal, teachers, staff and students are to (must) stand before it and sing the national anthem. It is indeed extremely meaningful to attend such a ceremony.

尊敬国旗是每个公民的责任（义务）。为什么？因为国旗是国家的象征。尊敬它意思就是尊敬国家。换句话说，如果一个人爱国，他必须爱国旗。

在学校里，通常每天定时要升旗。那时，校长，老师，教职员学生教师将恭敬地站在它前面并且唱国歌。参加此项仪式确实非常有意义。

第十七天：THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION

教育的重要性

It is impossible for us to make our country rich and strong without developing education. Why? Because education gives people knowledge and teaches them how to become good citizens so as to be able to serve their country. No wonder they say that education decides the progress, prosperity and civilization of a country.

At present (Nowadays) most countries in (of) the world are enforcing compulsory education. It is necessary for all kinds of people, both rich and poor, to receive education. Taiwan is an exception as well not.

我们不可能使我们的国家富强而不发展教育。为什么？因为教育给予人民知识并教他们如何成为好公民以便能为国家效力。难怪，有人说教育决定一个国家的进步，繁荣与文化。 现在世界大多数的国家都在实施强迫教育。所有各类人民不论贫富都必须接受教育。台湾也不例外。

第十八天：INDUSTRY (DILIGENCE) 勤勉

It is a matter of course that industry will bring us success, wealth and good luck. I am sure that a hard-working person can always succeed in the work which he wants to do. This is unchangeable truth.

Idleness is the opposite of industry. It is the source of all evil. An idle man only enjoys playing and making pleasures. That he is doomed to failure is of no doubt. We should not follow his example. 勤勉会带给我们成功，财富和好运乃是当然之事。我确信一个苦干的人终是能够做成功他所要做的工作。这是不易之定理。

懒惰是勤勉的反面。它是万恶之源泉。一个懒惰的人只享受玩耍和寻乐。他命运注定失败是毫无疑问的。我们不应学他的榜样。

第十九天：MY NATIVE TOWN 我的故乡
