21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛历届讲稿

From Walls to Bridges

第十届―21世纪杯‖全国英语演讲比赛冠军——夏鹏 南京大学

夏鹏原系贵州省平坝县黎阳厂子校学生,小学五年级开始进入贵阳百年英语学校系统学习英语。2003年,夏鹏以600分的高分考入南京大学法学院,后转入英语系。2004年获得CCTV全国英语演讲比赛第二名,同年获得代表国内最高水平的第十届―21世纪杯‖全国英语演讲比赛冠军,同时获得比赛―最具潜力奖‖,并代表中国参加2005年国际英语演讲比赛,荣获获得冠军和―最受观众欢迎奖‖。 演讲稿:From Walls to Bridges

I'm studying in a city famous for its walls. All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing sight of the city walls, silhouetted by the setting sun with gold and shining lines. With old, cracked bricks patched with lichen, the walls are weather-beaten guards, standing still for centuries in protecting the city.

Our ancestors liked to build walls. They built walls in Beijing, Xi'an, Nanjing and many other cities, and they built the Great Wall, which snakes through half of our country. They built walls to ward off enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has been maintained to this day as we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public. I grew up at the foot of the city walls, and I've loved them since my childhood. For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world.

My perception, however, changed after a hiking trip to the Eastern Suburbs, a scenic

area of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some international students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by taller and taller trees, which formed a huge canopy above our heads. Suddenly an international student asked me, "Where is the entrance to the Eastern Suburbs?"

"We're already in the Eastern Suburbs," I replied.

He seemed taken aback, "I thought you Chinese have walls for everything." His remark set off a heated debate. At one point, he likened our walled cities to "jails," while I insisted that the Eastern Suburbs were one of the many places in China that had no walls.

That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this international student. For instance, he told me that universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls; the campuses were just part of the cities. I have to admit that we do have many walls in China, and as we are developing our country, we must carefully examine them, whether they are physical or intangible. We will keep some walls but tear down those that impede China's development.

Let me give you an example.

A year ago, when I was working on a term paper, I needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library. However, the librarian turned down my request with a cold shoulder, saying, "You can't borrow this book, you are not a student here." In the end, I had to spend 200 yuan buying a copy; meanwhile, the copy in law school was gathering dust on the shelf.

At the beginning of this semester, I heard that my university has started not only to unify its libraries but also link them up with libraries of other universities, so my experience will not be repeated. Barriers will be replaced by bridges. Through an inter-library loan system, we will have access to books from any library. With globalization, with China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.

I know globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. But one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to China's tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their roles in the modern world.

And how about the ancient walls in my city and other cities? Should we tear them down? Just the opposite. My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls. These walls attract not only historians and archeologists but also many schoolchildren trying to study our history and cultural heritage. Walls have turned into bridges to our past and to the rest of the world. If the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great change in the

role of their walls. They are now bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all countries of the world. Our cultural heritage will survive globalization.

Our Future: the Garden of One Flower or Many Flowers

第十一届―21世纪杯‖全国英语演讲比赛亚军——吴相臣 天津师范大学

演讲稿:Our Future: the Garden of One Flower or Many Flowers

I have a friend who just started his career as a teacher in a primary school. Weeks ago, he asked me to raise a topic for his mid-term composition test. I was curious why he chose me to give a topic, because he is a teacher himself. He said that he wanted something the students can really show their different ideas. Without thinking, I told him to let his students write about what they would do if they were given one million US dollars. My friend left with satisfaction, and I fell into my old memories.

It reminded me of my old days in primary school. We were learning to do narration in the fifth grade's Chinese class. Our teacher required us to write a composition with the topic "My Most Unforgettable Day" with our real experience.

When papers came back, half of the students wrote about the first day they came to school. The rest of the compositions were all about picking money on the streets and giving it to policemen, or helping a blind man cross the street. Of course I was among them. But I remember very clearly, that one student, only one student gave something different. He wrote about the day that he first kissed a girl. I read his composition. After all these years, I can't recite every word, but I dare to say, that even Shakespeare, may not be able to write as equally good when he was 11

years old. The composition was written out of real experience and genuine emotions. Contrary to those fake stories, it sounds real and natural. But the kid was scored zero. Our teacher thought the content was unhealthy, I'm sure you know the meaning of this Chinglish word "unhealthy".

That was 15 years ago. When you read those compositions, and you feel that half of our population is blind, so all those kids could have a chance to help a blind man cross the street, and every one of us has a hole in our pocket, so all those kids could have a chance to pick up the lost money and give it to policemen.

A few days ago, my friend sent me an e-mail of all the copies of his students' compositions. I have to say, I was sadly disillusioned.{21世纪全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿}.

Among those papers 40% said that they wanted to donate the money to people in poverty, so their children can go to school. The rest compositions are much more alike. Some wanted to support the panda protection project, some wanted to buy books to enlarge their knowledge. One student even said that he would like to spend his one million dollars on the effort to cure AIDS. I was more astonished to find that a ten- year-old child knew what AIDS really is.

We all have been kids, and we knew what we had once wanted. But, there was no composition about spending the money on video games, nice clothes, chocolates, ice-creams and expensive toys. Like 15 years ago, students won't tell the truth of their hearts.

It has always been our dream to open our children's hearts. We encourage them to describe their dreams, and acted as if we are ready to accept their thoughts. But the fact is that, children are scared by the zero marked on their papers. They are trained to say what we want to hear.

People compare children to flowers of tomorrow. And parents dream about the scenery that roses, tulips, daffodils flourish in the future. But down the road we are going on, in the future, or the future of future, only one kind of flower can be found. And that's the flower we like most. Our Future: A Battle between Dreams and Reality

第十一届―21世纪·澳门之星杯‖全国英语演讲比赛冠军——曹丰 清华大学

演讲稿:Our Future: A Battle between Dreams and Reality

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

When I was in the primary school, I have a dream. I want to invent a device which could bring you from one place to another in no time at all. When I was in the secondary school, my dream was to study in my ideal university. And when eventually I got into the university, my dream was to graduate.

How pathetic! When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic. Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be "fulfilled"? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called "reality"? What IS the reality actually?

Ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real. It is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies. Flying, for example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years. A hundred years ago, "man could not fly" was still regarded as the "reality". Now if that was really the reality, what did the Wright brothers do? How did some of you get to Macau? Only when we believe that the reality is not real can we soar with our dreams.

People say that our future is a battle between the reality and our dreams. And if, unfortunately, Mr. Reality wins this war, then I see no future of mankind at all. AIDS will never be curable as this IS the reality; People living in the undeveloped countries will suffer from starvation forever as this IS the reality; 4)Disputes among different countries would never be settled as this

21世纪英语演讲比赛袁晓婷演讲稿!!

The road not taken in life

Hola todos! Ahora vamos a empezar. el camino no selecionado en la vida. Ladies and gentlemen, I am a sophomore majoring in Spanish, but today I’m here standing on the stage of an English Competition. Should I be here? Is this my arena? Two years ago, when I was offered the privileged chance to pick my major, rather than choose the well-trodden path of English I chose the lonely road Spanish. Lonely you may ask? Despite there being 400 million Spanish speakers in the world, a mere fraction of that number studies it in China.

It’s very common that when students don’t know which major to choose in college, they choose English; when they want a better job, they pick up English, and when they want to master a foreign language, more often than not, it is English. Let’s be frank, people learn English for money. There is a perception that English is the path to a better life. But the law of supply and demand tells that if everyone supplies the same service the value of that service declines. So those who have taken a less traveled road, and have not followed the herd, may have the last laugh.

We’ve seen this before. Think of all those students who decided to pursue law at the urgings of their parents, uncles or teachers. Where are they now? Promised a world of opportunity upon completing their education, instead they are now struggling to find a position in their overcrowded field. Some have ended up turning to new paths as translators, or even butchers and fishmongers. Supply and demand strikes again!

How about beyond education? What are the paths that everyone takes? Everyone rushes to buy a house and we are left with rising prices of homes and apartments that may be highly inflated. Everyone needs to purchase a car and we are left with traffic jams that last over a week! Everyone flocks to Xiangshan in the spring to look at the blooming flowers only to see the backs of other people’s heads. Too often people are sheep refusing to separate from the flock. They become nervous and uneasy when they step out of line. However, isn’t this sometimes necessary? Why do we not buy a cheaper home in a smaller town? Why do we not use public transportation instead of worrying about a car? Why do we not go see Sakura blossoms in Wuhan instead of the Fragrant Hills? The pressure to travel with others is strong for it is always easier to go with the flow.

We must learn to love the lonely path, not fear it. Not always is the popular path a safe one. There are always options. The road less traveled can be fun.

Learning Spanish changes you. You become more colorful, more noisy, more gossipy, more outrageous, more daring. It is like having a personality transplant. Now I encourage people around me to take risks, not unlike entering an English Speaking competition as a Spanish Major. Even though I have chosen the less travelled road to learn Spanish, I am not restricted from detouring into English as I have today. I don’t dream about the road I didn’t take that so many of my friends did. We are lucky to have so many paths in front of us, but there is no single correct path for all of us. We must find our own way. Luckily my path is clear, Spanish is calling. Hasta la vista.

化的融合表现得十分鲜明,意味深长,是篇优秀的演讲。 crossing the sea good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. the title of my speech today is crossing

the sea. an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in his poem we

and they: all the people like us are we and everyone else is they we live over the sea

while they live over the way we eat pork and beef with cowhorn-handled knives they who gobble their rice off a leaf are horrified out of their lives. when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked-how could two peoples remain

so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? todays society, of course, is

an entirely different picture. those people who used to eat with cowhorn-handled

knives might be very skillful in using chopsticks, and those people who used to gobble

their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips. indeed, just take china as an example: our modern life has been influenced by

western style of living in so many ways that its no longer surprising to see teenagers

going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mcdonalds and even

rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans. however, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place

in our society today. what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring

of the nations mentality. just look around. it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization

are already living under strong inf1uence of the western culture. but it is not only{21世纪全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿}.

in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures. take the chinese acupuncture as another example: this traditional treatment of

diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that

illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body -- an

idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past! ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of

economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than

ever before. we live in a particular era when countries, east and west, find themselves

in need of readjusting their traditional values. we live, at the same time, at a

critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and

regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the

whole human race. to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and{21世纪全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿}.

hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world. it is my happiest dream that the new generation of chinese will not only grow

up drinking coca-cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the

far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures; benefits that our forefathers had never,

ever dreamed of.

to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again: all the people like us are we and everyone else is they but once you cross over the sea you will end by looking on we as only a sort of they thank you. 译文:穿越海洋 女士们、先生们,晚上好。今天,我演讲的题目是:《穿越海洋》。 英国诗人罗得雅德·吉卜林曾写过一首诗,名叫《我们与他们》,其中写道: 像我们的人是我们

下篇二:第八届“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军——顾秋蓓演讲稿 第八届“21世纪·爱立信杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军-上海外国语大 学顾秋蓓演讲稿 a scene to remember good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. today i would like to begin with a story. there was once a physical 1) therapist(临床医学家) who traveled all the way from

america to africa to do a 2) census(调查) about mountain 3) gorillas(大猩猩). these gorillas are a main attraction to tourists

from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of 4) poaching(偷猎)

and being put into the zoo. she went there out of curiosity, but what she saw

strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those

beautiful creatures. she witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never

imaged weve ever been, where in the very depth of the african rainforest, surrounded

by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas 5) cuddled(拥抱) their babies。

yes, thats a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called gorillas in

the mist, based on a true story of mrs. dian fossey, who spent most of bet lifetime

in rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life. to me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a 6)

timeless(永恒的) reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost

of our ecoenvironment. turned out to be the driving force in gdp growth. it has the magic to turn a

backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. but on the other hand, many problems

can occur---natural scenes arent natural anymore. deforestation to heat lodges is

devastating nepal. oil spills from tourist boats are polluting antarctica. tribal

people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to u2 on walkman and wear nike

and reeboks. all these 7) appalling(令人震惊的) facts have brought us to the realization that

we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been

8) eroding(侵蚀) our resources. encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in

the spotlight, which is why the united nations has made 2002 the year of ecotourism,

for the first time to bring to the worlds attention the benefits of tourism, but also

its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment. now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations an: receiving donations--big notes, small notes or even

{21世纪全国英语演讲比赛演讲稿}.

coins--from housewives, 9) plumbers(水管工人), ambulance drivers, salesmen,

teachers, children and 10) invalids(残疾人), some of them can not afford to send the

money but they do. these are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals,

who are suffering from

ecological damage in their neighborhood. why? because they care. because they still want their mother nature back. because they know it still

belongs to them. the other night, as l saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent

into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs. i found myself humming softly,

not to the music, but to some- thing else, someplace else. a place remembered, a place

untouched, a field of grass where no one seem to have been except the deer. ecoenvironment that we are taking our next step into the world. and no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our mind, theres always

a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it. thank you very much.篇三:21世纪英语演讲比赛袁晓婷演讲稿!! the road not taken in life we must learn to love the lonely path, not fear it. not always is the popular

good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen: when i was in the primary school, i have ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not

real. it is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies. flying, for

example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years. a hundred years ago, “man could not fly” was still regarded as the

“reality”. now if that was really the reality, what did the wright brothers do?

how did some of you get to macao? only when we believe that the reality is not real can we soar with our dreams. people say that our future is

a battle between the reality and our dreams. and if, unfortunately, mr. reality wins

this war, then i see no future of mankind at all. aids will never be curable as this

is the reality; people living in the undeveloped countries will suffer form starvation

forever as this is the reality; disputes among different countries would never be

settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance is the reality. ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? please raise your hands. oh,

quite a number of you! actually, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a

task. every one of us c.s. lewis once said, “you are never too old to dream a new dream.” so for our

future, please and be unrealistic. now that i am a university student my goal is to

graduate with excellences. but at the same time, i have a dream deeply rooted in our

future. one day, people living in the areas now sweltering with the horror of wars

will be able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment. one day, people

from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor

countries. and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their

own happy living themselves. one day, different cultures in this age of coexist with

started out as an ordinary december afternoon. 42 year-old african american rosa parks

friends, her child at home, and how she enjoyed her simple life. she was content,

but when she thought about the prejudice and discrimination that she had to face

everyday, she felt a mends pain. how she wished to live in the world of true harmony

“ehen, ehen(咳嗽声)”, rosa was startle to see a white man standing beside her. he

was starring at her coldly, but she managed to smile and ask politely “may i help you sir?” “get out of the seat!” the man snarled back. “excuse me?” rosa was shocked. what right did the man have to speak to her in such a cruel tone? just because

her skin was dark colored and his was fair. and as equals, he certainly didnt have

any right to order her out of the seat, or did he? well, surprisingly, in 1955, lots

like rosa parks did not have as many rights as whites. due to racial discrimination,

rosa’s refusal to give up her seat to a white man, led to a call to the police,

and she was arrested jailed and convictea violatinsegregatiolaws. but rosa did not surrender to prejudice,

instead she chose to fight discrimination and work alongside thousands of others for

诸康妮2011年21世纪全国中学生英语演讲比赛演讲稿

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, today I’m going to talk about discover yourself. Ever since the accelerated development of human civilization, perpetual scientific discoveries of nature had accompanied mankind all along the journey. It was by discovering the world around us that human beings have been able to lead a more sophisticated life. However, as G. K. Chesterton once said, one may understand the cosmos, but never the ego. The self is more distant than any star. Thus, our life is a journey of unrelenting efforts to discover more of ourselves. When I was six, I constantly pictured myself as an elegant skilled pianist, rendering Chopin’s nocturne beautifully on the stage, receiving warm applause after my performance. However, as I furthered my piano lessons, it was hard to be oblivious of my ungifted skills. Sometimes I couldn’t help but have this feeling of despair when I woke up to the reality and discovered that my goal was unrealistic. Brutal but real, it was the first time I had discovered that I couldn’t have it at all. When I was twelve, I thought the coolest job in the entire universe was to be a surgeon. I spent hours and hours watching the drama Grey’s Anatomy and couldn’t help falling in love with the kind of life those doctors lead on the screen. I was utterly mesmerized by the scalpel and all those fancy medical terms they use. However, I stopped dreaming about being a surgeon when I discovered that it was the idea of being a surgeon that appealed to me, not what it truly was. As a result, the dream ended, and I discovered some more about myself. This year I turned sixteen, and I could proudly say I do not dream to be, but ascertain to pursue being a lawyer in the future. Since junior high school, I had always been awarded the most eloquent debater in every single debate I participated in. I can not only think logically, but also deliver my thoughts properly. My huge interest in philosophy also adds to my reasoning whenever I try to argue on something equivocal. Being aware of the obstacles and hardships on the way to becoming a great lawyer never panics me, for the simple reason that I have this faith and passion in what I am aspiring after. G. K. Chesterton was absolutely correct. The most complicated part of comprehending the world is the study of the somehow smaller world—ourselves. I’ve subsequently realized that growing up is the process of discovering ourselves. We get to know what we truly are and become who we dream to be. As we shape ourselves and as we shape our lives, we gradually become more aware of our limits and potentials and consequently learn to adjust to what’s out there. And by that, ladies and gentlemen, I’m proud to say that I have discovered part of myself. … discover today, and definitely a lot more in the future. I’ll always keep this embedded in my heart. Things do not change, we do. And that’s all, thank you.

演讲稿:Globalization: Challenges and Opportunities for China's Younger Generation

Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen:

Today I'm very happy to be here to share with you some of my thoughts on the topic of Globalization. And first of all, I would like to mention an event in our recent history.

Thirty years ago, American President Richard Nixon made an epoch-making visit to China, a country still isolated at that time. Premier Zhou Enlai said to him, "Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world - twenty-five years of no communication." Ever since then, China and America have exchanged many handshakes of various kinds. The fundamental implication of this example is that the need and desire to communicate across differences in culture and ideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations as well.

As we can see today, environmentalists from different countries are making joint efforts to address the issue of global warming, economists are seeking solutions to financial crises that rage in a particular region but nonetheless cripple the world's economy, and diplomats and politicians are getting together to discuss the issue of combating terrorism. Peace and prosperity has become a common goal that we are striving for all over the world. Underlying this mighty trend of globalization is the echo of E. M. Forster's words, "Only connect!"

With the IT revolution taking place, traditional boundaries of human society fall away. Our culture, politics, society and commerce are being sloshed into a large melting pot of humanity. In this interlinked world, there are no outsiders, for a disturbance in one place is likely to impact other parts of the globe. We have begun to realize that a world divided cannot endure.

China is now actively integrating into the world. Our recent entry to the WTO is a good example. For decades, we have taken pride in being self-reliant,
