关于英语学习经验的演讲稿
本文1000字,适合演讲: 学好英语最需要的是什么
( 作者:浠水一中 李可)很多同学,特别是男同学,学英语学得咬牙切齿,非常痛苦。
当被问到成绩为什么上不去的时候,他们自己,包括老师和父母常常这样回答:基础太差。
可是,英语学不好真的与基础差有很大关系吗
是不是基础差就学不好英语呢
中国目前学英语最出名的有两个人,一个是疯狂英语的创始人李阳;另外一个就是新东方的董事长俞敏洪。
首先说说李阳。
李阳读中学的时候,英语成绩很差,常常只能考四五十分。
高三期间因对学习失去兴趣曾几欲退学,1986年才勉强考入兰州大学工程力学系。
大学一二年级时李阳还多次补考英语。
再说说俞敏洪。
俞敏洪高中复读了两年才很意外地考进了北大。
他在北大的时候有很多的苦闷:一是普通话不好,第二英语水平一塌糊涂。
所以被调到了C班,C班叫做“语音语调及听力障碍班”。
这两个人学英语有这些共同点:一、英语成绩曾经都很差;二、后来都利用英语成就了自己的事业,成了中国最出名的英语学习者;三、把英语做成了产业。
通过上述我们可以轻易得出这样的结论:基础差并不能决定一个人学不好英语
有的同学说自己基础差,可跟他们相比,有比他们基础更差的吗
有的同学说,到高三了,时间来不及了,可他们直到大二才开始认真学英语啊
所以,请千万再不要说:我英语学不好是因为基础差
那么,学好英语最需要的是什么呢
让我们来看看俞敏洪和李阳这两个“差生”是如何起死回生的吧
为了彻底改变英语学习失败的窘况,李阳开始奋起一搏,他摒弃了偏重语法训练和阅读训练的传统,另辟蹊径,从口语突破,并独创性将考试题变成了朗朗上口的句子,然后脱口而出。
经过四个月的艰苦努力,李阳在1988年大学英语四级考试中一举获得全校第二名的优异成绩
李阳学英语最大的特点是:胆大。
他发明创造了“三最训练法”(最大声、最清晰、最快速),“开口说、大声背”是他学英语成功的法宝。
李阳在大学里、在单位里一直保持着大声说英语的好习惯,一个人要做到这一点,必须要有不怕出丑的勇气
怕出丑、怕出错的人是永远学不好英语的
俞敏洪大学毕业后留校任教,为了出国搞英语培训班,结果被北大开除了。
有的人遇到这种挫折可能一蹶不振,但是俞敏洪没有。
他以此为契机,大胆创办了新东方学校,终于成就了一番事业。
现在,俞敏洪很感谢北大开除了他,他说,如果北大当初不开除他,他了不起能抄点论文评个副教授。
所以,学好英语最关键的是要胆大。
胆大就是勇敢—其实,岂止是学英语,不管做什么,一个人要想成功,做哪一件事不需要勇敢呢

Recently, the English in China in the society more and more important, nearly more than China's mother tongue-Chinese. What is causing the situation? Also let us or what to English learning STH? Many college students will answer, because English is compulsory for all, not learn English can't graduate. Ok, so what is it that makes English became the required courses? What is it that makes English became the detection of college students qualified standard or not? One is that, learning English can better communicate with the international community. This is true, but as far as I know, the exchange of the both sides when things, why our country to learn English by force, and study abroad by interest in Chinese? Is this a little hot cold face stick butt feeling? When our compatriots abroad to communicate with foreigners, we to their convenient use English; Foreigners in China but not do in Rome as Rome does, never think of Chinese feel, still use their mother tongue. This is not for us national discrimination? We not only foreigners discrimination, not even our own inner also have a deep embarrassment. Many people think they can communicate with foreigners fluent with their compatriots a minute, many companies advertising always love use foreigner speak, this is YangNu thought in time. Another says, say learn English well can more direct gain overseas advanced material. This is very reasonable, but fine think again wrong. Other engineering also just, why to also learn English because? Murphy of foreign Chinese research than domestic advanced? Then again, the so-called advanced material is relative, and to domestic, perhaps advanced, but to foreign is outdated, we read such advanced material, have what use? Finally, also is the key point, many foreign web site we are inaccessible to, so we get from advanced material? The aaa from the library? So, our level is not limited to the level of translation, but is confined to the level of the library. This shows, the importance of learning English according to be largely far-fetched, is actually in order to achieve some countries some people some ulterior purpose and look for reason. Because of the increasingly important to learn English, Chinese status has dropped in the university in China except some professional basically no one study Chinese. This leads to China in the past 30 years, we've never had a sufficient to commend writers. Chinese is not only a kind of language, also we cultural carrier, lost Chinese, our culture will lose the foundation. And the popularization of English will make us in the future to English national feelings become complex, it may make us more easy to accept all kinds of aggression from abroad, with its how poison also? So, we hope that the English learning can be more rational, and not in the inferiority and blind mentality, the pursuit of so-called internationalization 关闭全屏阅读

After I entered the university,I came to realize its special importance.My class provides me with good atmosphere of studying.For some students,to remember the new words is the biggest barrier,especially now the words are more difficult than before.Actually,words come along with sentences,that is,to understand the words according to its context.Of course,it is necessary that you reviewed it now and then,otherwise you will forget them easily. When reading,I am used to underlining some special and important phrases or write them down on the notebook so that Ican find them when Ireview.Doing some exercises to consolidate what I learn in classes is my daily work.I never skip it.If you want to master English better than others,you must pay more than others,you must set aside more time.Don't be lazy.

As is known to all,writing,reading,listening and speaking are the basic skills of English.They should be well organized and coordinated.But speaking is always the one aspect people neglect.At school,on every weekend,I go to the English corner to chat with others in English.It doesn't need much vocabulary but fluency.My spoken English is strengthened by doing this.And this vocation I mean to have oral classes in Beijing.I have registered butnow I have a better chance to practice.How lucky I am
The more you speak,the greaterprogress you will make. In addition,there are a lot of factors involved in English learning.You must realize“more haste,less speed”.It should be accumulated gradually.No pains,no gains.You must make great effort and develop various abilities.No cross,no crown.Never give up,and you'll succeed one day. We still have so much to learn about English.It is endless.

Why do we attend university? 英语演讲稿 【By Kaiser3344】 Hello everyone.Now we have entered the gate of university.I believe everyone feels that our lives in the university will be very beautiful.But do you think that why we attend university? Maybe most of us think we go to college to be educated,to become a scholar,or to be usefulto the society when we complete our study.Of couse,this is true,but I think it is more than that.We go to universitynot only to study,but also to prepare ourselves for the real world.I think it is the most important. University lives provide us many activities and they can teach us how to handle the relationship between different people.This is very helpful to our future. In college,someone may go to extremes.One kind of students like study,but they never take part in anyactivities.Another kind of perple are fond of attending activities,but they study very little.I thinkthese two kind of students are not intellegent.I assume we must find a balance between the study and the activity. At last,I wish everyone can have a beautiful unicersity life and a bright future. Thank you.【楼主】此篇文稿符合您当前英语水平,本人手写,若觉得满意,望多多支持哈

My special thanks life has given me beautiful university time, this will is my life the most important most beautiful stage. After decade, it is that I will tell my my child university time so beautiful. 英文学习 For some students, English is very difficult to learn. It's true that English is different from other subjects. Because we learn other subjects in Chinese. We know Chinese much earlier than English. So Chinese influences our English learning. Do you want to learn English well? And then I'll be very glad to share the experiences. The most important thing is to remember four Cs. First, Carefulness. You must be careful when you do anything, and also, when you learn English. Many students make simple mistakes at times. 'Cause they are not careful enough. Also, many students don't regard English learning as an important thing. But we all know that English is the most widely used language in the world. As we are growing up, English is becoming more and more important in our life. So, when you learn English, please be careful. Further more, you also need to listen carefully. At school, listen carefully when you learn in class. The teacher can tell us a lot. If you have chances to speak to foreigners from English-spoken country, you should listen to them carefully. Pay attention to their pronunciations and ways to express. Next, Confidence & Courage. Many Chinese students are troubled by spoken English. Of course there is a reason about the language environment. However, the more important thing is that some of us are not confident enough to open the mouth. When we meet some foreigners, we hardly speak to them if they don't speak to us. Confidence & Courage are what we need. We can practice our English at home. Find a mirror and then speak to ourselves. Then you may feel more relaxed and comfortable than speaking to others. Don't afraid to make mistakes. But also be careful, don't make mistakes that you know what is right. The last one is Curiosity. You need to keep curious. Interest is the best teacher. When you read an English article, see an English movie, watch some English programs or when you join any other events about English, you should keep curious. If you learn a new word, then guess the meaning before you use the dictionary. If you find a sentence that you consider very meaningful, then you can write it down and collect all of them. If you keep curious about English, you may find learning English is so interesting. Can't you learn English well then? These are my suggestions of English learning. And I hope it can be helpful for you.And thank you all for listening. 或者 have learnt English for about six years, and I find that I become more and more interested in English.Perhaps some students think English is boring and difficult,I will tell you English will never be your enemy if you are command of some useful ways in learning English, the ways go as follows: First,it is absolutely nessary to listen carefully in your English class, even what the teacher teach you have understood, remerber: it is harmless for you to learn one thing twice. Second,Not only should you spend 15-30min in listening English, but also you should go to English Cornor to practise you oral English once a week. As we all know, in nowadays, listining and speaking is far more important than written English. Third,you can also read some small stories written in English,it can improve you comprehension in English, if you persist in reading English every day, I'm sure your English will soon be improved. Those are my experience in learning English,there must have something been omitted,I'm pleased to listen to your experience in English. 环境 Win Competition of Environment Protection for Beijing Although the 2008 Olympics are still three years away, another special competition has already started in Beijing. This time, the competitors are not the athletes from all over the world, but the people living in Beijing. The special competition is not held in a stadium, but in every street and every corner of Beijing. I suppose some of you may have already guessed what the special competition is. Yes, it is the competition of protecting our environment and creating a green Beijing for the 2008 Olympic Games. Someone may ask who is our rival in this competition? The modern Los Angeles, the charming Sydney, or the historic Athens? No, none of them. The real rival is ourselves. It is our bad habits of neglecting to protect environment in our daily life. Several years ago, I was very lucky to have an opportunity to live in the United States for about two years. I not only enjoyed the beautiful environment there, but also appreciated the American people's active way of protecting their environment. Now, whenever the environment protection is mentioned, a beautiful view of California will arise in my mind: white clouds flying across the blue sky, green grassplot sprinkled with colorful flowers and small animals playing happily among the trees. I remember that at the beginning of my coming to America, I often went to my father's working place, the United States Geological Survey, to have fun. Each time I found a lot of people riding bicycles to their offices. Among the cyclists, an old man with white hair attracted my attention. Curiously, I asked my father, Why does the old man ride his bike to work every day? Doesn't he have enough money to buy a car? Father laughed, No, not because of money. Actually, he is one of the greatest scientists in the world. He can afford to buy a motorcade if he likes. He is just an environmentalist and usually doesn't drive unless going shopping, or in bad weather. In America, there are a lot of environmentalists, who actively protect their environment. For example, in Palo Alto city we are living now, there is even a bicycle-to-work day on May 19th every year to encourage people to decrease air pollution caused by cars. Later, I also learnt another interesting fact of environment protection there. In some states of America, in order to decrease air pollution, save energy and reduce traffic jams, state governments encourage people to take buses to work or to share a car among several people. They even set special diamond lanes in some main streets, which are only for the vehicles with 2 or more people. The positive actions of American people and the effective measures the American government takes in environment protection fully won my respects and deeply affected my consciousness in environment protection. When I was back in China, people often asked me: What do you think of America? I always bolt out: Wonderful, especially the beautiful environment. Frankly speaking, after several years, the faces of my American teachers and friends have gradually faded away from my mind, but the blue sky, green grass and lovely animals in California often arise in my mind, and became my dream of visiting there again. The 2008 Olympics provide us with the opportunity to publicize and practise environment protection in Beijing. Is it possible for Beijing to Is it possible for Beijing to become as beautiful as California? The answer is yes, but the dream needs every Beijing citizen's full support and active moves to accomplish. From now on, if every student who is driven to school can take bus or ride bicycle to school once a week, if every car owner goes to work in a car pool once a week, we can make a difference. If everyone can actively protect the environment in our daily life, the blue sky, green grass and lovely animals in California will appear in Beijing. Tiny streams can combine into a vast ocean, small trees can together be an immense forest. Beijing is often described as a beautiful and aged picture. If every Beijing citizen adds a trait of green on the picture, the whole Beijing will become an ocean of green. Let us unite together to win the competition of environment protection in Beijing, and present the world a big gold medal. That is Green Beijing, Great Olympics 给你找了一个中英文对照的,能好理解些. 打好环保比赛、创建 尽管离我们还有3年之遥,但有一项规模宏大的特殊比赛已经拉开了序幕。
这场比赛的参加者并非来自的体育选手,而是身处北京的每一位公民,比赛的场所就是我们身边的街区小巷。
我想大家已经想到了我所说的这项特殊比赛,这就是创建、保护美好环境。
那么在这场环保大赛中,我们究竟要与谁一比高低
是繁华现代的洛杉矶、风光迷人的悉尼、还是古老神奇的雅典
都不是
比赛的对手就是我们自己,就是我们自身淡漠的环保意识。
几年前有幸在美国加州度过的一段时光,既让我享受了那里宜人的环境,更让我领略了当地人民高度的环保意识。
每当说到城市环保,我的眼前总会浮现出加州那蔚蓝的天空、明媚的阳光、碧绿的草地以及嬉戏在树枝间的松鼠、彩蝶和百灵鸟。
记得刚到美国时,常去爸爸工作的玩耍,每次均能看到许多人骑自行车上下班,而其中一位满头白发的骑车老人,引起了我的好奇。
我问爸爸,那个爷爷为什么总骑车上班,是不是没钱买车
爸爸笑道:没钱买车
嘿,说出来吓死你,他可是世界上顶级的大科学家。
要论钱,他可以买一个车队呢。
那他咋不买车呢
骑车多累呀
他有车,但平时除非下雨或购物,一般不去开。
在美国有许多人都是环保主义者,为了和减少对大气的污染,他们用实际行动倡导人们尽量少开车。
而我们所居住的这座美国城市,还特别将每年的5月19日定成了'骑车上班日',以支持和宣传这种有效的环保行为。
后来,我还在经常的搭车出行中获知了他们的另一件环保趣事:在美国的许多州,政府为了鼓励大家多坐公交车或几人合用一辆车,以节省能源和缓解交通压力,在城市内一些主干道路上开辟有专门的'钻石车道',只有乘坐了二人或二人以上的车辆才从此通过。
美国人民这种自觉的环保意识和政府有效的使我从内心对他们充满了敬佩。
并深刻地影响了我的环保理念。
回国后,常常有人问我:美国好吗
我总会脱口而出:确实好
最好的是环境。
说句真心话,回国三、四年,美国那边同学和老师的面孔已经逐渐模糊,但加州那宜人的自然环境,却每每清晰地浮现在我的眼前,成为我最深的记忆和期盼故地重游的缘由,也成了我心目中北京环境的蓝图。
2008奥运会为我们倡导和实施北京的环保提供了契机,北京能否有朝一日也拥有象加州那样美丽的环境
答案是肯定的。
但需要我们以真正的环保之心和切实的环保行动去一步一步地实现。
从现在开始,如果每一位有车的朋友一星期可以少开一、两次车,每个让家长用车接送的同学一周能主动让家长少接送一两趟而改乘公车或骑自行车,我们就会有拥有更多的蓝天……。
只要我们每一位北京市民都能够自觉的从身边的环保小事做起,加州的蓝天、白云和绿草地就会在北京安家,美国的松鼠、彩蝶和百灵鸟就会来北京落户。
涓涓细流可以汇成滔滔江海,片片绿叶能够造就莽莽森林。
只要我们每一位北京市民都拿起手中的环保之笔,在我们所处的街头巷尾,为北京这幅美丽而古老的画卷添上自己的一抹绿色,就能使北京掩映在绿色的海洋中。
让我们一起行动起来,用我们集体的力量来打赢这场环保之赛,向全世界展现一块最大的金牌,这就是绿色北京、精彩奥运。
英语演讲稿带翻译
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust. Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young. When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die 青春不是年华,而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,恢宏的想 象,炙热的恋情;青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春气贯长虹,勇锐盖过怯弱,进取压倒苟安。
如此锐气,二十后生而有之,六旬男子则更多见。
年岁有加,并非垂老,理想丢弃,方堕暮年。
岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却,颓废必致灵魂。
忧烦,惶恐,丧失自信,定使心灵扭曲,意气如灰。
无论年届花甲,拟或二八芳龄,心中皆有生命之欢乐,奇迹之诱惑,孩童般天真久盛不衰。
人人心中皆有一台天线,只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,你就青春永驻,风华常存。
一旦天线下降,锐气便被冰雪覆盖,玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生,即使年方二十,实已垂垂老矣;然则只要树起天线,捕捉乐观信号,你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。
