once upon a time, a weenie ant was walking on his way. as he was walking, suddenly he felt the ground shaking terribly. he looked around with his paranoid eyes and saw an elephant walking right behind him. quickly, the little ant covered himself with dirt, but one leg was unfortunately left out. a sparrow saw everything, so she flew down with the purpose of teasing the ant: “hey, chicken! watch out your leg, it’s out!” the ant felt embarrassed at first but then calmly responded: “ shi…i am going to trip that elephant.”

right now, i’m standing on this glamorous stage. but everything here reminds me of is a not so fun memory. around this time last year i was in nanjing competing in another speech contest. that was the first time for me to be in such a large event. of course the pressure i was under was immense too. after a sleepless and stressful night, i went onto that stage without the feeling in my legs. that speech turned out to be horrible. i don’t remember how i get down from there, but i do remember afterwards i just wanted to find a hole to hide in just like the ant in the story. back at my school, it took a long time for me to recover. thanks to all the help i got from my special friends. my confidence was restored. after rounds of giving speeches and answering tough questions, i am here today. from all that i’ve been through i’ve learned that a good future is based on a forgotten past, if i want my life to go on well i have to let go of my past failure. so today, with out fear, i am tripping my elephant again.

change the world? change ourselves

good evening, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.

it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.

it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.

frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with them.indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. (examples).but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.

there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.

with the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture. only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us.

at last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ,that is:if you want to change the world, then you must change yourself first.

good afternoon, dear teachers and friends!

i' m happy to make a speech here. thank you for your coming. now, the topicfor my speech today is “western festivals.” i would like to talk aboutchristmas.

christmas is originally a christian festival, as you can see from theformation of this word, “christ-mas.” the first part of the word refers to jesuschrist, and the second part “mas” comes from the word “mass,” referring to amain religious ceremony in some christian churches. at first, it was celebratedfor the birth of jesus christ. nowadays, although some churches still observethis festival for its religious reason, for most people, including chinesepeople, christmas has already become a day of secular celebrations, when peopleexchange greetings and gifts. however, it is still a biggest festival in thewest. it is as important to the westerners as the spring festival is to thechinese people.

christmas day is on the 25th of december, and christmas eve is of coursethe evening of the previous day, the 24th december.

christmas holiday usually lasts for two weeks, during which most schoolshave a christmas break. many families put the christmas tree in their house, andhang many decorations on the tree. under the tree, they usually place manychristmas presents. giving out presents and receiving presents are what kidslike best about this festival.

on christmas eve, kids would put stockings at the end of their bed, wishingthe santa claus would come and give them presents.

as to the tradition of giving and receiving presents in christmas, i thinkit has something to do with the nativity story. in the nativity story, on thebirthday of baby jesus, there was a bright star shining in the east. there werethree kings in the east who saw the star, and they followed the star all the wayto bethlehem where the star stopped. they came to a manger where baby jesus waslying. they worshiped the little baby and gave him presents. i think this is abeautiful story. it shows a spirit of sharing and love.

i like christmas for the presents kids will receive and for its lovelystory.

thank you very much!
