My idol
Good afternoon, everyone. It’s a great honor for me to give a speech here. The topic of my speech is my idol.
First, what’s an idol? It’s commonly acknowledged that an idol is a person or thing that is loved and admired very much. Almost everyone has an idol, or perhaps more than one. Someone’s idol may be a famous singer, such as Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber. Someone’s idol is like to be a sport star, now the most popular one is Jeremy Lin. And you say your idol is Steve Jobs? Oh, I appreciate him as well. Idols vary from person to person, and my idol is my mother.
As a Jewish proverb goes, god could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers. My mother is an ordinary woman just like other mothers in the world. But in the bottom of my heart, she is the greatest woman. She has set a good example for me and influenced me a lot, which I can never forget.
My mother is a collage teacher, she’s hard-working and she has deep love for her job and students. I have a good habit that I like reading books. It’s because my mother left a deep impression on me in my childhood that an outstanding person should regard books as his friends. And when I am tired of studying, my mother’s shadow of working will be the best【my,idol,is】
reminder.
My mother is gentle but strict. She takes good care of me and gives me all her love, asking for nothing in return. When I make a mistake, she’ll never scold or hit me, but in a strict and unforgettable way to draw me a lesson, for example, a heart-to-heart talk. Every word she says seems to be a beam of sunshine shining in my heart.【my,idol,is】
With reference to the English speech competition, in fact, I was afraid of failing so I didn’t want to take part at first. It is my mother who gave me courage and confidence. She said,” Dear, believe in yourself. We should seize the opportunity. One can realize what he can do only after a try. Right?” I nodded and made up my mind. So I couldn’t be standing on this stage without my mother’s encouragement.
In a word, my mother is more than a mother, she is also my teacher, my friend, and, my idol. I love her very much and I want to be a person like her.
If you like my speech, please support me and vote for me. That’s all, thanks for your listening.

My idol
As the old saying goes: An idol is an example to advise you what should do and what should not do. Everyone has his/her idol. Who is your idol? Your parents, famous people or a movie star?
My idol is my father who is not only an excellent father but also a responsible husband. First of all, in my memories, he doesn’t argue with my mother all the time. Exactly speaking, he is a tolerant husband. Whenever me mom angry, the great father always has many ways to make my mother delighted. Without my father, I can’t imagine the atmosphere in my family. Then, he is a responsible father. Last year, my brother was put into prison for a week since he had a fight with other guys. My mother cried all day, however, my father went to prison to visit my brother and had a deep talk with my brother. A week later, my brother turned into another person just like my father. The great father teaches his children how to face instead of how to hide. The least but not last, because my father works in a company far away from our home, he goes back home every weekends. He would talk a lot with my brother and me as long as he goes back. From his talking, I get lot and begin to know what a person my father is.
He is the man just I want to be, so I endeavor to be a person like my father: a tolerant, responsible and an optimistic person.【my,idol,is】
My idol is my father; I hope I will be the idol of my children.

I grew up with all kinds of dreams. Today I want to share two of them. They both have to do with playing musical instruments.
When I was four, Mom bought me an electric piano. The black instrument standing in the middle of the house scared me. Day after day, I had to practice with my piano teacher. I never liked her, and all I could remember about her was her impatient words, “Wrong,” “Wrong” and “Wrong” again. And Mom was always on her side, saying I was not smart enough or I did not practice hard enough.
I did this for a year, but I never developed any interest. I practiced everyday simply because I had to. Many times in my dreams, I saw the long faces of Mom and the teacher and heard their stern words. Really, the dream should be more appropriately called a nightmare. Then one day, I saw Mom talk with the piano teacher softly, and afterwards, that teacher never showed up again, and the piano disappeared, too. Mom was unhappy, but I was glad because now I could watch cartoon shows on TV after dinner, never again any piano.
In a few years’ time, the dream of another instrument started, and it started during an urheen or erhu concert given by a distinguished musician. The melodious tune carried me away, and I felt I was lying on the grassland, indulging myself with mild sunshine and sweet flowers. As the music stopped, I realized this had been a beautiful dream, and I would like to continue this dream. That musician later on became my urheen teacher. For two years, he made me practice one hour every day, and the objective was to have me play urheen with him on the same stage. Whenever I made a mistake, he would also be quite harsh and made me practice even more. The pressure was indeed unbearable, but at the same time, the dream that started during that concert continued. When I was practicing, the dream seemed to carry me away, and moreover, my parents seemed to be in the dream too. They sat and listened quietly, as if they were also lying on the grassland, enjoying the sunshine and flowers. Anyhow, pressure was mingled with passion, and they worked together in pushing me forward. Each step of progress came from hard work but also brought immense pleasure.
I admit that in the world of urheen, I was lucky in finding a balance between pressure and passion. In real life, however, there is often too much pressure, but too little passion, just like my piano nightmare. From primary school on, we have been forced to study day and night, to take tests every day, to copy vocabulary items five times and to recite every lesson in front of the teacher. All the dreams pupils have are the long faces of their teachers and parents, but not dreams with sunshine and flowers.
I hope all teachers will realize that learning cannot go on without passion. I still remember my first urheen performance with my teacher. I was under much stress and didn’t sleep much the night before because I knew if I screwed up, it would also affect his reputation. When I walked onto the stage, I was so nervous that I almost held the urheen upside down. When the lights went on, to my great surprise, I saw my parents, fellow students and other teachers sitting on the first few rows, with big smile on their faces. It was just like the time when I was practicing. Passion suddenly overwhelmed me, and I played so well that night that even my urheen teacher didn’t know why. Of course I knew it, and I know my dream of playing urheen will continue.
演讲稿二：英语演讲比赛演讲稿
20 years ago, Wang and Xiao, two passionate junior high students, dared to dream, dared to act. Wang loved Michael Jackson’s dancing, and Xiao was addicted to playing guitar.
The two then formed a band, hoping that one day they could get on the stage and perform.
However, the reality has always been unsatisfactory. On the path of realizing their dream, the two suffered countless setbacks---from the fickleness of the world to conservative ideas of the society, from employment pressure to marriage pressure, and worse still, the rising of prices.
After 20 years’ torment, they compromised to the reality---Wang is now a barber, and Xiao is a wedding host.
Yet one day, they got to know that there was a talent show Happy Idol. They could not stop thinking of their original dreams of performing on the stage. And eventually they decided to participate.
This time, the two old boys, realized their dream. Once again, Wang played the guitar and sang. Xiao danced with preoccupation. The song they sang is a beautiful elegy to youth, a lament for all the things the post 80’s have lost along the way.
As was sung in the song, “dreams are always out of reach. Should I just give up? Have you realized your original dream? Or can we only mourn he present circumstances? Life is like a heartless chisel, changing our appearances. Must I wither before we blossom? I used to have a dream.”
This is the story in a hot online movie named The Old Boys. The movie has touched the hearts of almost all Chinese netizens, especially the post 80’s and 90’s. It makes them realize that, from the very beginning, we should choose to follow our heart, and follow our dream.
Robert frost wrote in his famous poem The Road Not Taken, “two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference”.
In our life journey, we sooner or later will have to face the two spurroads. One leads to dream. The other leads to reality. Wanting wear, the dream road is grassy yet winding. The reality road, however, has been terribly trodden.
Why?
It’s because people are always struggling for the reality, having no time to fight for their dream.
Take the post 80’s generation as an example.
If you ask what their dreams are when they were kids. They might give you answers like becoming a scientist, a politician, or a great businessman. However, if you ask them now what their dreams are. They would tell you that they want to buy a house, a car; they want to have a secure job, a moderate income.
I got a question: where is their original dream now?
Actually, in face of the huge pressure from the reality, they have set aside their dreams.
Confronted with the college entrance exams, they spent 12 years in the ocean of papers. At last still not everyone could be admitted to their ideal university.
Confronted with the rising of house price, they will have to spend almost their whole life to earn a house.
Confronted with the pressure of raising family, they strive on their post day and night. When they go back home, tired with fatigue, they have no energy at all to think more about their original dreams.
It takes young people their whole life to fight with the reality. Meanwhile, their original dream fades out as well. Even if they have the passion, it still would be worn down by the pressure from the reality.
Living such a fail-fail life, how could one possibly get the real happiness?
How should we do then?
The dream road and the reality road diverge at the very beginning, and as the two roads extend to the distance, they would become even farther apart from each other.
Thus we need to make our choice at the very beginning: to dream, or to struggle with the reality.
I would say to young people that, it’s time for us to discard the pressure from the reality and follow our dream. It’s time for is to unburden our load and go to our Walden Ponds. It’s time for us to undertake the career that we have been dreaming of.
The housing price is high. So what? We could still choose Dwelling Narrowness.
College entrance exams are cruel. So what? If it really unfits you, then skip it and establish your own business.
Your girlfriend refuses to marry you simply because you have no money to buy a house. So what? I would say that she’s not the one deserves your love.
Stop hesitating, young people. If today is the last day of your life. You’ll know what to do! For the sake of not letting yourself regret when you grow older; for the sake of not letting yourself regret that the pain you have suffered does not pay you back any true happiness, please choose to follow your dream.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I-I took the dream road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.

Honorable teachers, ladies and gentlemen, and my fellow sutdents: Good morning! It’s my pleasure to stand here to make a speech. First of all , let me introduce myself. My name is TongYao. I am from Class 2 Grade 7 in ChengGong middle school ! Today , my topic is : “Innovative Thinking”
Have you ever thought that what is Innovative Thinking ? Somebody will said ,“thinking something different !” In fact, it’s not so simple. Have you ever thought how to think something different ? Now , let me explain it to you in detail !
First , we should admit that Innovative ideas do start in one mind before taking on the world. Only in this way ,we have the power of Innovation . For example , the radio, television, telephone and so on, all were developed by scientists . And these scientists all had the ability and courage to think something different . It is a well know fact that Albert Einstein was the mastermind of the nuclear bombs .
Second , we should be good at discovering , and be able to break the conventions. Sometimes, there are a lot of subjects of Innovation around us . But more often we lack the ability of discovering So, only if we be good at discovering and summing up ,we can innovate .Finally, I want to say , as a middle school student in the new century, we must have the courage and confidence to make innovations.)And we should study hard for development of our country ! Because we are the builders of our motherland !
Honorable teachers, ladies and gentlemen, and my fellow sutdents， according to what I have said above , have you learnt more about the “Innovative Thinking” ? Of course ,you have ! I believe my speech is perfect ! And I also believe that as long as we expand our thinking , we will find something different . That’ s all ! Thank you for your listening!

Dream, with each one of us.
Dream is beautiful, it is the bottom of my heart the most beautiful expectations, so the dream also become our long-held beliefs. And my dream is to let my country become strong.
The various kinds of products in delicate Chinese stores, inns and shops inevitably have the sign of “Made in China”。 Even if some people do not speak English, after viewing plenty of those goods, are capable of identifying this high-frequency phrase.
When Mr. Xu mentioned “Made in China” during social science class when explaining concepts, he solely referred to this phrase and wished it could become “Designed by China” in the future in a regretful voice. However, when I heard his words, my heart thumped. It is indeed true that at present, most of the miscellaneous goods are made in China instead of designed by China. For instance, some of my pens have the label of “Designed by Korea Made in China”：“Design by Korea Made in China.
I still remember the indignation from my heart last time when I saw the news that a number of multinational companies made use of the low standard of “Made in China” to produce illegitimate products. From that on, I have a dream. I have a dream that one day those pitiable “Made in China” labels can transfer into “Designed by China” or even “China patent technology”。 Though I am neither a professional engineer, nor a sophisticated designer, I am only a student who has no specialized knowledge about invention. Nevertheless, I always have the dream that there will be less “Made in China” and more “Designed by China”。
Without actions, determinate can only be remote dreams generated from my mind. I said to myself silently, only when I take actions can the dreams become closer to facts. For instance, I should be more focused when having science class, should take some inventive extracurricular activities, should know more about lifetime stories
反思一：Collecting stamps is my hobby教学反思
一、课堂气氛活跃。首先我通过精美的邮票又发学生的学习动机，激发学生的学习兴趣。然后从课题导入，使学生树立了学习的信心和勇气。当我提出问题，学生都能积极举手回答。最是我感到欣慰的是句子教学的成功，我将学生对话进行到底，尽可能使他们进行语境化操练，既增强了学生的参与意识，也体现了合作精神。特别是那些害羞的、平时乐于表达的学生在优秀生的带动下，这节课也能大胆的表达自己的兴趣爱好。
二、以实物教学和多媒体教学为途径，体现“任务型”教学。作为本课所讨论的话题“邮票”，我用实物教学是最合适不过的了。课前我布置学生从家里搜集一些邮票带到学校，保证每位学生上课时都有几张邮票。我先是战士自己带来的集邮册，并通过多媒体展示不同国家的邮票。自始至终我都引导学生通过介绍不同国家邮票这个具体任务来学习语言的。而最终要完成的任务就是让学生利用所学的的举行来介绍自己带来的邮票。在这个过程中，我尽可能地做到课堂英语化，教学情景化，步骤规范化，始终让学生视听感知——模仿练习——交际运用的过程。
三、教会学生学习。在讲授完第一个新句型“These stamps are from America.”后，我展示其他国家的邮票是，学生就能将其他几组类似的句型说出。同时也能根据“These stamps are Chinese stamps.”这个句型举一反三。这个过程看起来很简单，但是训练了学生的思维能力，培养了学生的主动探究知识和自主学习的能力。
不足之处：
1、课堂用语量比较大，但有时没有注意细节，个别用于会出现语病。虽然是很小的问题，但细节决定成功，相信以后我能克服这个缺点，尽量是课堂用语完美。
2、时间的分配和把握上有待加强。尤其是最后的５分钟，显得较仓促，这一点说明我还缺少一定的教学经验，还需要通过一定的课堂积累才能达到。
反思二：Collecting stamps is my hobby教学反思
本单元课文主题是谈论兴趣爱好，新单词主要集中在课题上，课文内容不是很难，但涵盖的知识点很广。包括单复数的区分、“This is ，These are ”的句型，以“Do ，Have”打头的问句肯定否定回答的复习。这些知识在以往都接触过，但对于大部分学生来说，还不能听到就马上作出反应。
本课所针对的是六年级学生，他们具有一定的英语知识储备，理解运用能力，具备一定的自主学习的能力，但已不像低年级学生，那样大胆表现自己。学生程度差别大，一部分学生由于基础较差，心理上紧张，信心不足，学习英语的兴趣不是很浓，所以在课上，应最大限度的调动每一位学生的积极性，兼顾到不同层次的学生。大部分学生能积极参与到英语活动中，与其他同学团结协作，相互交流，共同完成学习任务。异地教学对学生的情况不好掌控，学生对我的口音也比较陌生，但却增加了新鲜感和相互沟通的欲望。
这节课不论是新知识的呈现，还是旧知识的巩固，都能紧紧地抓住学生，吸引学生，培养了学生学习的兴趣，让学生积极参与到课堂中来。教学的每个环节都能为目标服务，扎扎实实地努力提高课堂实效，。我相信通过这样的教学，充分让学生主体参与、体验感悟、游戏巩固，是一定能圆满实现课堂教学任务的。
反思三：Collecting stamps is my hobby教学反思
本课的主要内容是“Have got”句型，由于我采用了游戏的方式，所以学生对于句型的掌握比较到位。在本课的单词教学中，我采用了故事联想的教学方法，使学生在短时间内掌握了单词的正确读音，和意义，并能做出很好的造句练习。在课文教授过程中采用雨过天晴的游戏，增强了学生的集体荣誉感和自信心，使枯燥的课堂变得生动有趣， 使学生感受到了英语学习的乐趣和竞争的成就感。本课的教学达到了预期的效果，教学任务基本完成。但是由于课文内容过长，在某些环节的安排上欠缺时间的合理性，练习没有顺利进行完。 在我以后的教学中应该在各个环节的安排上更加注重。
