关于梦想的演讲稿
凭鱼跃，天高任鸟飞。
每个人都怀一个属于自己想。
然而，什么
什么又是梦想
梦是期待，而梦想是坚强--是你把飘渺的梦坚持作为自己理想的勇气和执著，是你对自己负责的最高境界。
但扪心自问，我们有多少人能够成就自己心中最初的梦想
我们的梦想，是一个简单的信念，是一份对自己未来与生命的责任。
也许，是二十岁的豪情壮志；也许，是青春期的迷茫与冲动；也许只是一份平淡的渴望，渴望掌声，渴望成功。
无数的“可能”，无数的“希望”，因为我们的青春岁月充满奇迹，我们心中大大小小的梦，在生活的每一个角落里芬芳弥漫。
亲爱的朋友们，回眸自己的一路成长，还记得每一个梦想带来的悸动，在生命中留下了怎样的足迹么
为了修身养性，母亲让我6岁开始学习书法；因为还没断奶就会说话，母亲又断定了我有语言天赋，从小安排大量的语言训练；又因为母亲年轻时的“作家梦”，我从8岁开始接受正规的写作辅导......就像一块机械的海绵，疯狂的吸收那些陌生的课业知识，外语课、电脑课、家政财经课.....凡是母亲认为应该要学的，那就是我的义务。
当一个人看着奖状麻木的时候，我几乎找不到自己的方向；刹那间对于整个未来的失望，在所有人认为你可以成功的时候，我毅然地选择了放弃。
高考前的离家出走，为了去寻找所谓能够坚持奋斗的理由。
在陌生的城市，徒步行走，在刺眼的阳光中曝露了自己的愚蠢。
放弃复读，放弃留在沿海甚至去北京深造的机会，只为了摆脱父母的安排，只为了走自己的路。
当一切安顿下来，回想起父母和自己一路颠簸来到这穷乡僻壤；回想起父母离开时，眼里不舍的泪花；回想起恩师们一遍遍劝说我回去复读的短信、电话......我才恍然，我的梦想，付出了如此的代价。
当同学对我说，为什么你什么都会的时候。
我第一次对母亲充满了感激。
那一刻，我才明白，自己一直想要反抗的人，其实是最理解我的人，学会了感激，也学会了正视自己的梦想。
是的，我的梦想。
一份从一而终的守望--给我的学生希望，给我的读者温暖，给我的爱人幸福。
是的，我的梦想。
从第一次站上讲台开始迷恋这个地方，从第一次发表文章开始憧憬文字世界，从决定留在这里开始，坚守心底的渴望。
无论岁月在我们脸上增添了多少痕迹，无论世事在我们胸口划过多少到伤痕，只要我们还有呼吸的权利，就拥有重塑梦想的激情
只要我们还有生存的氧气，就拥有缔造激情的勇气
落红不是无情物，化作春泥更护花。
选择坚持，选择珍惜，选择成就生命的激情，勇敢的成就心中最初的梦想。
每个人都有梦想，它是人人所向往的。
没有梦想的人的人生将是空虚的，人生没有梦想就如飞机失去航标，船只失去灯塔，终将被社会所淘汰。
但梦想总是随着思想的前进而改变的。
碌碌无为是庸人所为，奋发图强是智者之举。
童年时，我有一个梦想，我希望我有钱。
大人问：“小伙子，有了钱你要去干什么呢
”“我要去买泡泡糖”“如果你有很多钱呢
”“我会去买很多泡泡糖”“如果你有用不完的钱呢
”“我会把做泡泡糖的工厂买下来。
”的确小时侯的我们，天真无邪，有着一颗善良的童心，幸福与快乐是一曲不变的乐章。
慢慢步入小学，中学……就越会觉得压力的存在。
现在我有一个梦想。
我希望每天都不要有很多的家庭作业要做。
玩耍的时间一点点被剥夺，而我们一天中40%被禁锢在教室，很多时间在学习。
但是面对学习，还是一种模糊的认识。
俗话说“难得糊涂”，对事物的理解，也由封建主义发展到资本主义，越大就越觉得自己的观点是对的。
上初中的时候，我有一个梦想，我希望自己能成为一名尖子生；回到家能受到家人的表扬；在学校能受到老师们的肯定；在同学之间能有鹤立鸡群的表现。
但是，渐渐的，我发现实现这个梦想并不能靠要耍耍孩子气。
之后，我学会了奋斗。
忙忙碌碌一天加上晚自习后放学回家，真是又困又累，吃夜宵都没有味道。
这样的日子很单调，也许有时候想念许多小学同学，有时候赶着上课还是一双朦胧的睡眼。
讨厌死板的校服装，从不穿着它到处走。
星期六、星期天的时间真很短，孩子脾气真想犯，慢慢懂了做人的辛苦和梦想真是太难，还好我会努力，看每一个人都在为了生活而起早赶晚，把握自己不再松散。
今天，我有一个梦想，我希望自己能考上一所中意的高中。
我为着梦想，`每一天都苦苦寻找着充实自己的辅导书与练习卷，为着光明的未来而努力。
梦想像一粒种子，种在“心”的土壤里，尽管它很小，却可以生根开花，假如没有梦想，就像生活在荒凉的戈壁，冷冷清清，没有活力。
试问，我们在座的热血青年谁又愿意过那种行尸走肉的日子呢
我相信我不会，你们大家都不会。
有了梦想，也就有了追求，有了奋斗的目标，有了梦想，就有了动力。
梦想，是一架高贵桥梁，不管最终是否能到达彼岸，拥有梦想，并去追求它，这已经是一种成功，一种荣耀。
在追求梦想这个过程中，我们是在成长。
它会催人前进，也许在实现梦想的道路中，会遇到无数的挫折和困难，但没关系，跌倒了自己爬起来，为自己的梦想而前进，毕竟前途不仅靠运气，也靠自己创造出来。
尊敬的领导、敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们： 大家好
此时此刻，我感到非常欣慰，很荣幸能在此挥洒豪情，畅谈青春与祖国。
毛主席曾说过这样一句话：世界属于我们的，也是属于你们的，但最终还是属于你们的，你们年轻，你们是早上八九点的太阳，你们是祖国的希望，你们是祖国的未来。
科技是第一生产力，知识就是力量，年轻就是资本。
我们年轻，我们骄傲，我们自豪，我们更自信，但我们也必须认识到：我们处于知识爆炸的年代，社会在发展，时代在前进，不进则退，别来无恙，认认真真地学，扎扎实实地干，把青春献给祖国，为中华的腾飞不懈追求，奋力拼 搏，做时代的弄潮儿。
五十八年的风风雨雨，五十八年的艰苦历程，共和国有本账，人民不会忘记。
让中国人民站起来，让中国人民富起来。
从1949年10月1日中华人民共和国成立到1964年第一颗原子弹爆炸成功，从1978年十一届三中全会改革开放到2001年加入世贸组织，祖国的综合国力在不 断增强，在国际上的地位不断提升，人民生活水平高了，骨头更硬了，腰更直了。
五星红旗，高高飘扬，祖国在欢畅，世界在瞩目。
世间自有公道，付出总有回报。
祖国今天欣欣向荣，不知有多少像雷锋、欧阳海等一大批优秀青年楷模人物，牢记“全心全意为人民服务”的宗旨，默默无闻地工作着，把青春献给祖国，为我们树立了榜样。
吃得苦中苦，方为人上人。
献身祖国，学会吃苦，从小事做起，从身边做起，从今天做起，以马列主义、思想为指导，高举理论伟大旗帜，牢记“三个代表”重要思想，带着感情，带着责任为民办好事，办实事，为党增光辉，为建设中国特色社会主义现代化祖国添砖加 瓦。
美哉，我青年中国；壮哉，我中国少年。
姑息，是一种守旧；挑战，是一种创新。
人生在世，事业为重；一息尚存，绝不松劲；东风得势，时代更新；趋此时机，奋勇前进。
不经历风雨，怎能见彩虹。
正视自我，挑战自我，完善自我，树雄心，立壮志，把青春献给祖国，把爱奉献给人民，响青春主旋律，让神州山更青，水更秀，天更蓝，华厦更辉煌
以梦想为主题的演讲稿
世界上最美妙的东西是什么
是七色的彩虹，是幽深的大海，还是无垠的天空
不，都不是，是梦想。
梦想比彩虹更绚丽，比大海更深沉，比天空更广阔；它拥有梦幻般的华美、纯洁和甜蜜；它是每个人心中最崇高的净土。
梦想如清风，在你迷茫时吹醒你昏睡的大脑，将远航的船儿吹向成功的彼岸；梦想似烈火，在你无助时给予你无限的温暖，将智慧燃烧化作成功的种子；梦想若甘露，在你绝望时滋润你干燥的咽喉，将汗水融化为成功的源泉。
梦想是一把钥匙，用心把握，便可开启成功的大门；梦想是一盏明灯，用心点燃，便可照亮成功的大道；梦想是最忠诚的朋友，用心呵护，便可了解成功的奥秘。
拥有了梦想，就拥有了成功的一半。
梦想是前进的动力，山因为有了梦想，而拥有了生机，拥有了植物和动物；水因为有了梦想，而拥有了活力，拥有了鱼儿和波浪；人因为有了梦想，而拥有了生活，拥有了亲人和朋友。
在通往成功的路上充满艰辛，是梦想在我们摔倒时告诉我们赶快爬起；是梦想在我们遇到风雨时告诉我们勇往直前；是梦想在我们失败时告诉我们永不言弃。
梦想让我们在黑暗中看到了光明，看到了明天的希望。
学会了努力，就拥有了成功的另一半。
为了心中的梦想，我们不畏艰险地向前冲，付出了汗水、泪水、血水，让我们的梦想越来越清晰，越来越伟大。
为了实现心中那永恒的梦想，我们用智慧点燃火把，用辛勤开凿道路，用认真描绘蓝图，用刻苦积累材料，用真心筑城堡。
城堡里是正在成长的梦想和将要实现梦想的我。
追逐着梦想的我们，除了辛苦，更多的是幸福和甜蜜，是充实生活的快乐。
一个人，若没有了梦想，就没有了为之奋斗的目标，没有了前进的动力。
那就像生活在峡谷底层一般，整日地在黑暗中度过，在无奈之中苦恼，在绝望之中挣扎，在迷茫之中看不到一丝希望。
望着不同的人匆匆地从自己身边擦过，追逐梦想，而自己却在盲目地奔跑，最终依旧只能在原地默默地守望，等待着死神带走这个孤独的灵魂。
没有了梦想，就得不到任何希望，孤独、恐惧、绝望占据了整个心灵，每一丝风都会沉重地打击着这个弱小的心灵，只能以自暴自弃、随波逐流的方法度日，在充满悲伤的情况下，打发着平庸、无味、没有意义的岁月。
当人们猛然间寻求到自己的梦想，明白了自己的追求时，眼前便会豁然开朗，在远方浮现出自己的梦想，虽然渺小、模糊，但却是真真切切的。
就像是在黑夜中迷了路，猛然抬头，发现在云层中显现出来了璀璨的星光，微弱但却柔和，给人带来了明媚的希望。
每个人都有自己的五彩斑斓的理想，工人、教师、警察、医生……每一个理想都那么美好，每一个人都是那么执着。
为了理想，每个人都努力不懈地去实现，把瑰丽的理想成为现实。
童年的我是多么天真，多么幼稚。
而我从来没有想过我的理想是什么。
我一天天成长，一天天成熟，开始顾及到我的理想。
我很想做一个天文科学家。
可是那些大科学家，大多数都住在出名的大城市，而我住在这个不太出名的城镇里，纵有雄心壮志，也很难实现。
理想对于我来说，是那么遥远、神秘……科学家，是一个不平凡的职业。
像爱因斯坦、伽利略、牛顿那样的科学家，对科学界有很大的影响。
我十分佩服他们，因此，我想做一个天文科学家，在火星上发现生物，观察遥远的星球，到真空的宇宙探索……我一天天地长大，学的知识一天天多起来。
我了解了“唐太宗、刘备、康熙……”这些伟大的人物，这使我学会了许多做人的道理。
成功，是努力、坚持、天赋组成的，所以我又创出这样一条公式：实现理想=努力+坚持+天赋。
一个人如果有了理想，有从小培训的天赋，努力不懈地去实现，失败了，继续坚持，那么理想才会实现。
我从书本上知道，有生命的星球必须有以下条件：1、有坚硬的外壳；2、有生物生存的适当的温度；3、有适当的大气（大部分是氧气）；4、有足够的水；5、这也必须是一颗行星，围绕着的中心天体必须是一颗稳定的中年恒星。
生命存在的条件是非常苛刻的。
我曾经痴迷地想象：“火星上会不会有生物呢
有生物的星球是怎样的呢
会不会是……”我很想揭开这个迷，因此，我很想做一个天文科学家，去发现人类的另外一个家园，去解答宇宙的不解之迷。
我当然知道做一个天文科学家并不容易，要有很高的学历，有很强的求知欲、想象性，还要有一种不怕困难、失败的精神。
“一个小孩想当天文科学家，未免太天真了吧
”不错，听起来的确很天真，但我深信，“只要有恒心，铁柱磨成针”。
为了实现这个理想，我花了不少努力。
我购买了《神奇的地球》、《宇宙的奥秘》、《宇宙之迷》……每一本书我都把它读熟透，吸取里面所有的知识。
有一次，我从中午开始读书，觉得读了不久，爸爸就叫我下去吃饭了。
我十分奇怪，望望屋外面，原来已经是黄昏了。
我每天就是这样吸收各个方面的知识，使我的理想与现实不断缩短距离。
我不断在生活中吸取经验、知识。
在学习上，我认真听课，积极发言；在表演时，我积极当一个小主持；在辩论时，发表自己的意见、理论……等到长大的时候，我将运用这些知识，争取做一个科学家。
“泉水挑不干，知识学不完”，但只要你肯学，再多的知识你也能学到手。
“海阔凭鱼跃，天高任鸟飞”我就像一条鱼，在广阔的前途海洋里自由自在地游，选择哪一条前途，是由我自己选择的。
但在这个前途海洋，不能全无风波，但我充满信心，我有信心冲破各个难关，去追求我的理想，实现

关于梦想的三分钟演讲稿
尊敬的老师亲爱的同学们： 你们好
在卖火柴小女孩眼里，梦想是飘香的烤鹅，是奶奶温暖的双臂。
在邓亚萍眼里，梦想是坚持心中永不服输的信念，只要你肯努力，就一定能够成功。
在杂交水稻之父袁隆平的眼里，梦想是“杂交水稻的茎秆像高粱一样高，穗子像扫帚一样大，稻谷像葡萄一样结得一串串”，梦想是不停地突破和探索，是丰富的想象和大胆的创造。
在“千手观音”邰丽华的眼里，梦想是聋人可以“听”得到、盲人可以“看”得到、肢残朋友可以“行走”，梦想是从不言弃、努力拼搏的精神支柱。
梦想，伴随着我们每一个人。
梦想是美丽的，它是心底最美的期望，所以美梦成真也成了我们长久以来的信仰。
梦想，是人人都会有的，有的梦想很平凡，有的梦想很特别，有的梦想很实际，有的梦想很远大。
但，不管怎么说，有了梦想，不管是大是小，都是伟大的，哪怕是想当一个掏粪工人，因为类似于这个职业的是平凡而又不可缺少的，感动了大家的时传祥，不就是一个掏粪工人吗?说了这么多，还没有说我的梦想是什么呢。
我的梦想很简单，仅仅是想像比尔·盖茨那样，做出一番事业，退休过上安逸的生活，把自己的财产捐献给那些慈善机构。
当然了，在我死前是不会捐出全部的，死后，我会把钱全部捐给慈善机构。
我没有那么伟大，我也有人性的自私。
有了梦想，也就有了追求，有了奋斗的目标，有了梦想，就有了动力。
梦想，是一架高高的桥梁，不管最终是否能到达彼岸，拥有梦想，并去追求它，这已经是一种成功，一种荣耀。
在追求梦想这个过程中，我们是在成长。
它会催人前进，也许在实现梦想的道路中，会遇到无数的挫折和困难，但没关系，跌倒了自己爬起来，为自己的梦想而前进，毕竟前途不仅靠运气，也靠自己创造出来。
梦想像一粒种子，种在“心”的土壤里，尽管它很小，却可以生根开花，假如没有梦想，就像生活在荒凉的戈壁，冷冷清清，没有活力。
试问，我们在座的同学们，谁又愿意过那种行尸走肉的日子呢
我相信我不会，你们大家都不会。
有了梦想，也就有了追求，有了奋斗的目标，有了梦想，就有了动力。
梦想，是一架高高的桥梁，不管最终是否能到达彼岸，拥有梦想，并去追求它，这已经是一种成功，一种荣耀。
在追求梦想这个过程中，我们是在成长。
同学们，让我们播下梦想的种子即使自己只是一滴水，有了梦想，也能汇成无际的大海.即使自己只是一朵云，有了梦想，也能凝成高远的天空。

一篇关于梦想的演讲稿
II HAVE A DREAM By Dr. Martin L. King Jr. [Delivered on the steps at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. on August 28, 1963] I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves, who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. So we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition. . . . . I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecutions and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not wallow in the valley of despair. I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow. I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed; we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal. I have a dream, that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream, that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today! I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today! I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain and the crooked places will be made straight and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith that I will go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. This will be the day, this will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring! And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. And so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. But not only that. Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi, from every mountainside, let freedom ring! And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, we are free at last. The End “I Have a Dream” and “Nonviolent Resistance” by Martin Luther King Jr. are similar in their use of evidence from the Bible, religion, Negro spiritualism, highly regarded people, respected documents, abstract concepts, and in their use of balanced phrases and correct sentence structure, but they differ in their narrative voice, audience, word choice, and use of literary devices. Although “Nonviolent Resistance” and “I Have a Dream” both use evidence from the Bible, religion, Negro spiritualism, and highly regarded people, “I Have a Dream” makes more use of historical documents. Both essays make extensive use of religious and biblical evidence. For example, “Nonviolent Resistance” relates the biblical account of Moses who led the escape of the Israelites from slavery, to demonstrate that people sometimes prefer “acquiescence” to the struggle for freedom. It also includes a quotation from the Bible where Jesus told Peter, “Put up your sword,” to build support for King’s stance against violent resistance. “Nonviolent Resistance” also includes religious and biblical references to concepts of morality and immorality, love and hatred, “his brother’s keeper,” and “an eye for an eye,” in ways to show that non-violent resistance is preferable to acquiescence or violent resistance. Although “I Have a Dream” does not relate any specific biblical account, it too makes extensive use of biblical and religious evidence. For example, it elevates the promise of racial equality to a “sacred obligation” and views the place where Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation as a “hallowed spot.” To show that a non-segregated America is the ideal, this essay describes the proper basis of American society as “the solid rock of brotherhood.” The phrases “all of God’s children” and “Jews and Gentiles” are included to emphasize that all Americans should help black people win their freedom, and that everyone will benefit when King’s dream of racial freedom is realized. Religious overtones are maintained when the essay describes how the “faith that unearned suffering is redemptive” enables blacks to endure the “persecution” and “trials and tribulations” of segregation. The wording of paragraph eighteen, which includes the phrase, “the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,” uses biblical phraseology to describe a racially integrated America. In paragraph nineteen, the essay repeatedly uses the word “faith” to validate King’s hope for equality and freedom. Blacks who rely on “soul force” and “pray” to overcome resistance will eventually be able to “thank God Almighty” for their newfound freedom. Both essays use evidence drawn from Negro spiritualism. “Nonviolent Resistance” graphically explains why blacks give up their fight against segregation by quoting a Negro guitarist who sang, “Ben down so long that down don’t bother me.” “I Have a Dream,” on the other hand, expresses the joy that racial freedom will bring to all Negroes by quoting words from an old African American spiritual song, “Free at last! free at last: thank God almighty, we are free at last!” Well known people also appear as sources of evidence in these essays. For example, in “Nonviolent Resistance,” King refers to a passage from Shakespeare’s writing to reinforce his contention that some people prefer a familiar bondage to the unknowns of freedom. Perhaps on a more personal level, he uses the example of the well-known Jewish leader, Moses, to point out that people may blame their leader for troubles encountered during the struggle for freedom. “I Have a Dream” refers to Abraham Lincoln as “a great American” who helped to create “a great beacon of hope” for Negro slaves, but does not actually name him. This discretionary use of evidence keeps the focus of the essay clearly on King’s dream. Both essays base arguments on respected documents. “Nonviolent Resistance” relies on the respect granted to Hegel’s writings when it introduces “non-violent resistance” as “[l]ike the synthesis of Hegelian philosophy. . . .” That reference helps promote the legitimacy of this option. In “I Have a Dream,” the “Emancipation Declaration,” the American Constitution, the “Declaration of Independence,” and a patriotic song support King’s argument that all people are equal. Finally, both essays advance their theses by using abstract concepts such as “justice,” “injustice,” “hatred,” “freedom,” and “obligation.” In addition, “Nonviolent Resistance” uses the concepts “immoral,” “conscience,” “moral strength,” “noble,” and “love” to show that non-violent resistance is superior to violence and acquiescence, while “I Have a Dream” describes the “bitterness,” “suffering,” “oppression,” and “despair” that result from segregation, while extolling the “tranquility” and “brotherhood” that will ensue once “gradualism,” “interposition,” and “nullification” are overcome by people who have “faith.” The essays differ in their narrative voice and audience while using balanced phrases and correct sentence structure; however, “Nonviolent Resistance” contains simpler words and fewer metaphors than does “I Have a Dream.” “Nonviolent Resistance” is written in the third person, addressing an audience consisting of each individual “Negro.” In contrast, “I Have a Dream,” written in the first person, uses the words “us,” “we,” and “our” to address Negroes as a group. “Nonviolent Resistance” employs the balanced phrases “monologue rather than dialogue” and “not against the oppressor but against oppression.” In “I Have a Dream,” the first two lines of paragraph nine consist of a succession of balanced phrases. The phrases, “meeting physical force with soul force” and “their destiny is tied up with our destiny” in paragraph six are also balanced. Both essays use formal vocabulary; however, “Nonviolent Resistance” explains more of its difficult words than does “I Have a Dream.” For example, “I Have a Dream” leaves unexplained the words “symbolic,” “momentous,” “languishing,” “dramatize,” “architects,” “gradualism,” “interposition,” “nullification,” “symphony,” “curvaceous,” “prodigious,” “underestimate,” “invigorating,” and “tranquility.” Both essays use literary devices, but “I Have a Dream” uses metaphors far more extensively. “Nonviolent Resistance” personifies the undisturbed “conscience of the oppressor” as a person asleep, and it metaphorically describes the results of violence as “a desolate night of bitterness.” In addition, it uses a metaphor to compare the attraction of public support for non-violent resistance to magnetic attraction. “I Have a Dream” uses similes to compare “justice” to “waters” that roll down, and “righteousness” to “a mighty stream.” It also uses similes to compare “the Emancipation Declaration” to “a great beacon light” and “a joyous daybreak.” In addition, “I Have a Dream” utilizes a great number of rich metaphors. In the first paragraph, it uses metaphors to compare Negro slavery to a “long night,” and the injustice slaves suffered to being “seared in . . . flames.” The second paragraph metaphorically describes “the life of the Negro” as being “crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.” Metaphors continue to be used to portray the Negroes’ situation as being an “island of poverty in . . . a vast ocean of material prosperity.” The third and fourth paragraphs contain an extended metaphor comparing the promises of freedom in the “Constitution and the Declaration of Independence” to a “bad check” drawn on the “bank of justice.” “[O]pportunity” is compared to “vaults” in a bank, “freedom” to money, and “justice” to “security.” Metaphors are also used to compare “segregation” to a “dark and desolate valley,” “gradualism” to “tranquillizing drugs,” “racial justice” to a “sunlit path,” “racial injustice” to “quicksands,” and “brotherhood” to a “solid rock.” In paragraph five, Negro “discontent” is “sweltering summer,” and Negro determination is expressed in terms of “whirlwinds” that will continue until “the bright day of justice” when “freedom and equality” arrive as “an invigorating autumn.” “Justice” is metaphorically described as a “palace” in paragraph six. Desire for freedom is a “thirst,” that could be satisfied by “drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.” In the following paragraphs, the metaphor for “persecution” is “storms,” for “despair,” it is a “valley” or a “mountain,” and for “hope,” it is a “stone.” “I Have a Dream” concludes with a metaphor, maintained over the last seven paragraphs, that compares “freedom” to a bell that will “ring” from all parts of America when everyone is “free at last!” 前面是马丁路德金的著名演讲稿，后面是引用别人的，如需要马丁路德金的演讲（mp3格式），可联系我
