honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen:
today my topic is ’nuclear power: a blessing or
a disaster?’
when the first atomic bomb was dropped on hiroshima, japan, the world was thrust into atomic age. meanwhile in the commence of cold war and during its long term, it had set the world into fear and panic of nuclear war many times.
but over the years, nuclear power has found its way to promote goodness for humankind .it promises to
provide clean and efficient energy for the centuries to come.
so whether nuclear power a blessing or a disaster?
there is no firm answer for this question from my own perspective.
ladies and gentlemen, my very initial contact
with nuclear power was from a tv programme called green space where i saw for the first time how nuclear power had changed people’s lives and what it had left for the residents’ living around chyrnobil nuclear power plant. unfortunately, it was a sad story.
my heart sank when i saw a boy infant appear on the screen smiling with big blue sparkling eyes. he was so cute and adorable just like all the other kids but he was blinded. what’s more, he had to receive medical treatment everyday to alleviate radiation damage, but still stood little chance of growing up. later i learned that inappropriate operation and equipment design defect was responsible for the
tradegy .eight years has past, but the picture of that boy’s smile still appears infront of me and reminds me that nuclear power can be a living devil.
however, with the increasing depletion of resources and the instant demand for energy, clean and efficient nuclear power may seem the best choice.
as an old saying goes ’every sword has two blades.’ nuclear power is dangerous, yet ef ficient; environmental devastated yet clean; expensive yet sustainable. it is a matter of how we use and how we treat it. while let’s beyond all this ,whether nuclear power a blessing or a disaster, it’s ours’ choice.
thank you for listening!

2021年外研社杯英语演讲比赛(1) Today I am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. What is success? It is what everyone is longing for.Sometimes success would be rather simple. Winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; making a new friend is success; even now I am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success. However, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very complicated. Is fortune success? Is fame success? Is high social status success? No, I don’t think so. I believe success is the realization of people’s hopes and ideals.Nowadays, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. And the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. So most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. But the problem is wether it is real success. We all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. If we keep chasing them, where is the end? What will satisfy us at last? Therefore, we can see, to get the real Success we must need something inside, which is the realization of people’hopes and ideals. Different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopes and ideas vary from one another. But I am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. These are the best treasures. So now I am very proud that I have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. It is my success, cause I raise up to challenge my hope. What is success? Everyone has his own interpretation as I do. But I am sure every success leads to an ever-brighter future. So ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a successful life! Wish you all good success! 2021年外研社杯英语演讲比赛(2) Honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:

英语演讲比赛心得
“外研社杯”英语演讲比赛心得 在这次“外研社杯”英语演讲比赛当中，我做为一名选手，感受颇深，这也是我第一次参加这样展示自我的一次比赛，应该对于我来说意义非凡，学到了不少。收获荣誉的同时，我的心灵受到了强烈的震撼和洗礼，参加此次演讲比赛是我人生中非常特别的一次体验，不仅仅是比赛的环节和考验给我留下了深刻的印象，而且这一路走来的心理历练也让我收获颇多。 通过这次的演讲比赛，首先我最想表达的就是感谢。正是因为老师们对我的全力支持，才有了我今天出色的演讲。在此，我要感谢我的我的老师李雁给我的演讲稿做的点睛式地鼓舞，正是因为有这位老师在演讲技巧和稿件写作上给予了我很大帮助和启发，才有我在演讲台上的“淋漓表演”，使我信心越来越强。其次，具体到演讲过程中，首先要有一个好的演讲稿，演讲稿的题材、角度一定要新颖，绝不重复别人的故事，你想那么多的参赛选手，如果学习的榜样总是那几位英雄，无论你多么慷慨激昂，评委们听得多了，便也不会觉得新颖了，因此你的演讲稿就没有什么亮点。一个演讲要有亮点，什么是亮点？与众不同。 另外还有六个方面的小技巧：1、一见倾心：演讲者着装得体、精神振奋、姿态优雅，会使听众有个很好的第一印象。2、一鸣惊人：在演讲开场的三句话内，要能在声音、情感、语调上一炮打响，打动听众，这样演讲就很容易成功。 3、一语中的：在演讲中，演讲者要在适当的时候，一般在热烈的当口上，以简单明确的慨括性语言，说出你的主题观点，最好能用上排比句式来表达，会给听众留下深刻印象。 4、情理交融：演讲之所以要有演的成分，是因为要先体现以情说理，再以理服人。所以在演讲中，演讲者要善于运用动人感人的事例、体验典型人和物、调动听众的情感，在引起情感共鸣的基础上，适时阐明道理和主题，常常会使你的演讲效果倍增。 5、言行一致：演讲中与听众的交流非常

Ladies and gentlemen, good morning. It’s my great honor to be here and give you a short speech. Today my topic is “The Stones, G roping to Growth”. Before I start my speech, I want to ask you all: have you ever heard the story “Little Horse Crossing the River”? The little horse doesn’t know the depth of the water and does not dare to cross the river. So he asks around, everybody gives him different answers according to their own experience. It makes him even more scared of the river than before. After a long struggle, he finally takes the courage to try it himself, and realizes that the river is neither as shallow as the cow said nor as deep as the little squirrel said. I also experienced a confusing period like the little horse when …. I have always been keen to experience everything in life, and hence I believe I’m of versatile tastes. This kind of cleverness leads me to think that I can be good at many things. To me, all the things I want to try is like rivers to cross. With just a few steps into the water, I can enjoy all the fun freely, jumping and running in the water; moving forward, the water gets higher, it is still full of fun and excitement; yet when I’m approaching the middle of the river, I find myself surrounded by water, and I can’t see where I can go. I start to get scared and confused and don't know what to do.

外研社杯演讲比赛演讲稿 篇一：Change the Unchangeable外研社杯演讲比赛演讲稿 外研社杯演讲比赛2014年---- Change the unchangeable （一）Change the unchangeable Good morning, everyone. It’s my pleasure to deliver this speech here. The subject of my presentation is “change the unc hangeable”, which means try your best to make a change when stuck in an unchangeable situation. No wonder that there exists something unchangeable in our life, getting into the way of striving for what we want. There are plenty of unchangeable obstacles for us. They are serious and they are many. They will hardly be meet. But know this, my friends, they will be meet.
Once you believe in yourself, the unchangeable is going to be changed. Nothing is impossible, and in a sense, nothing is unchangeable! The thing absolutely unchangeable does not exist. Sometimes, adversities seems really unchangeable for the moment, but we must realize that they can be changed in some way. Moses was a stutterer, yet he was called on to be the voice of god. As we can also see in the film “The king’s speech”, stammer is unchangeable for the king, the duke of York. But once his realized that he need to make a change and inspired by the words “to be or not to be, it is a question”, he returned to the hospital, and accepted the retreatment again. With the help of the doctor Lionel Logue, he gradually made progress and managed to get over his unchangeable physical disability. There are endless examples. Abraham

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! A gourd is used to hold liquids. However, Zhuangzi has taught us a good lesson that a gourd can be used to make a float, floating over the river and the lake. It’s clear to see a different mindset in him, which is the topic I’m going to focus on today: Success or Failure, Your Mindset Matters. Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever considered the true relationship between success and failure? What is success? How do you define failure? Most of time, participation is the essence. That’s why we say the process is more important than the result.There are about 30 contestants this morning in this competition. If the first prize winners are the only successful ones here, this competition will probably lose its meaning. When I began preparing for this English speaking contest, I was troubled by my speech writing. My coach wasn’t satisfied with them, because either my ideas were not typical or new just as Huizi was frustrated by a large kind of gourd.The chance to be chosen in this competition is one of thousands. How could I afford to lose? I was sleepless, couldn’t enjoy my m eals, and was nearly collapsed to come up with any good idea. I turned to my teacher, and he said your speech should be very well written to impress the judges and the audience. With so ordinary ideas and points, you cannot even convince me. It seems “winning” is the only word in my teacher’s dictionary. Failure does not have a place there.I can’t imagine wh at if I lose. I couldn’t get out until I read one of my teacher’s blogs. It goes like this: Failure doesn’t mean you are a “failure”, it means you haven’t succeeded yet. Failure doesn’t mean you have accomplished nothing, it mean s you have learned something. Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it means you have to try something in a different way. My problem solved, this verse has just opened my mind. The competition is not just about winning and losing. Actually the time I spent on preparing my speech has developed my creative thinking and critical mind. Suddenly, I felt enlightened and smartened,so to win a prize or notno longer bothers me, because I know I’m a winner already. Thank you!
