Dear teacher, dear students:
most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal. what is the secret to popularity? in fact, it is very simple. the first step is to improve our appearance. we should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well.
when we are healthy and well-groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better. in addition, we should smile and appear friendly. after all, our facial e_pression is an important part of our appearance. if we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.
another important step is developing more consideration for others. we should always put others first and place their interests before our own. it's also important to be good listeners; in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us. however, no matter what we do, we must not gossip.
above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies. only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect. if we can do all of the above, i am sure popularity will come our way.
Wake up everybody!Time is passing us by!Time and tide wait for no man.

i's my great honor to present this speech name is peace and i am from class 1 of teaching chinese as a foreign language. my topic today is "living at present is my top concern"。
we've often heard the famous words;“yesterday is history,tomorrow is mistery,but today is a gift,that's why it's called 'present' ”ed,rich or poor,every one is endowed with this most precious gift by treasuring it and living to our fullest potential in the present,can we project our way forward to a bright and rewarding future.
lving at present requires a positive attitude to confront life;it's having the wisdom to spend our life’s resources engaging in the most productive affairs; it's directing our time and energy towards the most efficient way to achieve a promising future! by living at present, we'll have more time and energy to focus on our goals and make a diffference to whatever our current task may be. furthermore,, it's learning from the past instead of unnecessarily carrying heavy burdens from yesterday, and planing our future to wisely prepare for it instead of being impatient or restless . if we drawn, or let ourselves be overcome by yesterday's memories or strong feelings , how can we be observant enough to focus on things going on around us? if we are into dreaming or unnecessary concern for tomorrow,,how can we prepare well for the exciting upcoming future?
tat is why living at present is my top concern.
living at present demands the courage to throw away useless encumbrances of the past , to accept what is unchangeable, to change what is chnageable, and to learn from the past which should be a lesson. ,instead of an obstacle.
living at present also requires the wisdom to concentrate on the present ,preparing for the future and courageously displaying the patience to wait for tomorrow.
over a long period of time, taking care of my little brother and making money at university push me too hard ,and i was so exhausted and anxious that i couldn't even sleep though my sleeping time is extremely tually, i came to realize that i must lay off the mental burdens like worries from the past and concerns for the future and live at present. i need just to realise that i am on my way to my destination.; because i now know, that my top concern is "living at present "!

高中英語學科的高手歷來都具備以下四大特徵：
一、詞彙量比一般學生大，語言知識（習慣用法）積累夠多。
二、語法基礎過硬，並且在閱讀能中敏銳地發現語法知識和語言知識。
三、聽說能力很強。
四、善於捕捉機會用英語表達自己，有良好的英語思維習慣。
英語是一門工具學科，其重點不在於要從老師那裡學到多少有關英語的知識，而在於在老師的指導和幫助下，練就一套紮實過硬的聽說讀寫能力和探究英語語言規律的能力。作為剛跨進高中大門的一年級的新生，不宜僅停留和滿足於國中英語學習中所形成的一些學習方式。過去的學習方式需要發展、改進和完善。英語學習是在一系列活動中完成的。這些活動應該組成一個完整的系統。在構建自己的英語學習系統中，一定要從聽、說、讀和寫四大技能方面考慮。
能聽懂他人比較純正的英語，不僅是英語考試的需要，也是同學們未來步入社會，施展才能所必需的技能。我們平時的聽力訓練不僅僅是在訓練你的英語聽力，其實它也是一種語感培養，充足的英語聽力訓練同時也會極大的有助於提高學習者的口語能力。鑑於同學們不可能自己抽出多少時間去聽英語歌曲、看英文電影或者直接用英語與人口頭交流，那麼，充分利用好本年級統一的聽力訓練時間就顯得尤其重要。在聽力訓練中，既要學會抓關鍵詞，也要學會聽懂完整的句子；既要學會聽懂不同語音語調對語意的影響，也要學會聽懂有失去爆破和連讀現象的句子。有難度的聽力訓練試題最好是能在過了一段時間後，等到忘記得差不多時，有再聽一次的機會。所以在做聽力訓練試題時，我建議同學們一律用鉛筆做記號，對完答案、看完錄音文字材料後再把鉛筆痕跡察掉。
英語的口頭表達能力雖然不是我們考試的必備能力，但它卻是同學們將來所需要的最重要的，最實用的英語技能。一口流利的英語是每一個英語學習者所夢想達到的理想水平。重視口語能力的訓練不僅對未來有重要意義，對提高同學們高中階段的英語水平也有非常重要的意義。說英語就是運用英語。語言能力和語言知識，同許多其它能力和知識一樣，只有通過運用，並且經常運用才會真正地學到手，學到家。英語是一門語言。語言是聽出來的，是經過不斷模仿後才能說出來的。高中生的英語口語能力要求，除了一般日常交際應答以外，還應該具備能連續表達含五個以上的句子。練就一口流暢的英語口語需要同學們抓住三個機會：一是課堂上老師為同學們提供的開口機會。二是課前演講或者值日報告的機會。三是早讀是個好機會。早讀不應該總是停留在背單詞、背課文這樣的簡單勞動中。單詞不是用來背誦的。朗讀單詞的目的是要把單詞的發音讀準，並且能上口，讀起來不勉強，不繞口。課文也不是用來背誦的。熟讀課文是為了加深理解，鞏固詞彙知識和語法知識。既然口語能力那麼重要，同學們不妨把背誦或者複述課文當成是口語表達或者演講的準備呢？換句話說，把課文材料準備得再熟悉不過以後，來一次演講展示，那且不美哉！真正的高英語水平絕不是看書看出來的，也不是做習題能做出來的，更不是聽老師講課能聽出來的。早讀期間通過不斷模仿，放聲吼叫，反覆實踐，你一定能快速提高自己的口語表達能力。
英語短文閱讀的重要性不僅表現在高中英語考試中它的份量最大，而且還表現在英語短文是英語詞彙知識和語法知識的載體方面。詞彙量的擴大、詞彙知識的豐富和句子表達的多樣性光靠死記硬背是無法也不可能實現的。擴大詞彙量、豐富自己的詞彙知識和地道完美的表達自己只有依靠優良的閱讀習慣。教材課文是精讀材料，需要同學們讀熟讀透，直至能開口娓娓道來為止。課外閱讀又叫泛讀。高中英語新課標教材對高中前八個模組的學習有一個要求：課外閱讀要完成30萬單詞的閱讀量。也就是說：同學們需要每天有500到700個單詞量的閱讀。課外閱讀也是運用語言的一種必不可少的形式。課外閱讀不能停留在完成幾道閱讀理解試題或者完形填空試題。關鍵在儘量弄懂文章中的每一句話含義、長難句的結構。留意你還不很熟悉的詞彙、詞彙知識和語法知識。還要去認真體會不同的英語句子在表達上的精確性。千萬不要在一些你還不認識的，拼寫怪誕，發音困難的生僻詞彙上浪費時間和精力。
閱讀能力，除詞彙量大小以外，還包含閱讀速度、長難句理解、和把握主題大意的能力。要會快速閱讀，同學們必須學會一些閱讀的技能：如：skimming(跳讀)、scanning(掃讀)和digesting(研讀)。Skimming和scanning就是根據閱讀任務在文中查詢相關資訊。Digesting主要是用來理解長難句、把握主題大意和作者意圖以及猜測詞義的技術。不僅要研讀長難句結構，也還需要研讀邏輯關係。
流暢的短文表達能力在很大程度上依賴於你的詞彙量、詞彙知識和句法知識。它們的積累在於平時的聽、說和讀的活動。寫作表達能力中，你的英語句式的結構思維能力或者英語習慣思維能力會對錶達能力有重要影響。這就需要同學們平時養成一個良好習慣：那就是總是試圖用英語來表達出你眼睛所看到的，耳朵能聽到的，身體能感受到的和你思想能想到的。除此之外，一篇優秀的短文還少不了三個要素：即結構，內容和語言。
一片結構完美的英文短文，尤其是說明文和議論文，往往有一個比較完優美的，誘人深入閱讀的開頭語。主題句是可從開頭語中自然而然過度而來。你所程述的觀點，一般都要用事實做論證，或者用具體方式方法來支援。巧妙的結論句往往能使文章錦上添花。
內容需要真實，合乎情理，能讓人信服。文中不要有與主題無關的內容。
語言要儘可能是地道的，去漢語化的英語。要經常套用自己在閱讀中、在課堂上學來句子結構去表達自己。要敢於嘗試用比較複雜的句子結構和比較高階的詞彙來使文章進一步美化。
聽所讀寫四大技能並不是各自孤立的，也是相互作用和相互制約的。如果平時，只注重某一項技能的學習和訓練，那是不可能成為一位真正的英語強手的。
任何一門學科都需要踏實的學習作風。外語也不例外。學外語的實主要表現在以下幾個方面：
一、落實詞彙、詞彙知識和特殊句式的積累。落實詞彙和詞彙知識並不是反覆背記詞彙表中的單詞。落實詞彙、詞彙知識以及特殊句式的最好辦法是先探究後運用。一個詞彙在經過七到八次在不同時間和不同的語境中運用後，它就是你的了。詞彙知識和特殊句式也是一樣。寫作是運用，造句是運用，閱讀，傾聽和與他人用英語交流也是運用。藉助詞典進行造句練習，在造句中運用新學的詞彙不失為一種行之有效的簡單易行的方式。
二、落實課外閱讀。每天堅持花半小時閱讀一兩篇短文。一要真正讀懂。二要留意詞彙運用。
三、落實早自習精讀。每次有硬指標，死任務。
四、落實課內課外書面作業。簡單的完成老師佈置的作業量並不是落實。書面作業質的落實必須是在真正懂了、記住了的基礎上又快又好的獨立的、閉卷式的完成書面作業。對發現的漏洞和缺陷要採取補救措施。
五、落實自主探究的學習能力培養。學習中缺乏自主探究，不善於利用團隊合作和與老師溝通是很多高中生在學習中存在的一種普遍想象。老師不是保姆，老師不可能把英語的詞彙知識和英語的四大能力烹製成一道道佳餚後，一口一口地喂進學生的口中。老師的探究代替不了學生的探究。學習能力的培養主要是探究能力的培養。學會了探究，你才會在知識的大海中暢遊。學會了探究，你才會成為終身學習者。英語學科的探究應該表現在對某一特定詞彙在文中、在句中的.用法和含義的探究，對長難句結構和含義的探究，對相關知識關聯的探究，對作者意圖、主題大意的探究，當然也包含對學法的探究。要探究知識，要有工具（詞典以及各種手冊等）的幫助，更要有團隊的合作，還要有老師的幫助。團隊合作可以讓你取他人之長補自己之短，還可以集思廣益，產生思想火花。常與老師溝通是可以使你更容易發現前進的方向，少走彎路。
總而言之，英語學習需要同學們從聽說讀寫四大技能方面養成良好的學習習慣，堅持語言知識積累、精讀、泛讀、課內課外作業和自主探究五個方面的腳踏實地地勤奮努力，就能夠比較輕鬆地完成高中英語的學習，為自己將來的遠大理想奠定堅實的外語基礎。
大家好！我的名字是我來自一班,我很高興站在這裡給你自由演講。今天我的主題是"做一個好的失敗者" .我相信每個人都經歷了很多。我們做了好事,也做了壞事。當我們做壞事時,我們不應該感到悲傷。我們應該從失敗中學習,從每個錯誤中學習,並學會如何成為一個好的失敗者。這就是我今天要談論的。這是我們要吸取的教訓。讓我告訴你為什麼。首先,失敗是生活的一部分。這是不可避免的。這是我們都必須面對的事情。每個人有時都會輸。每個偉人都知道這個事實。所以不要以失敗為恥。失敗並不意味著你是個失敗者。第二,不要逃避,接受它。失敗是有益的',對你也有幫助。我們只是把它視為一種學習體驗。失敗是學習的機會。你可以學習如何再試一次並提高。
第三，熟能生巧。為自己創造挑戰。永遠不要害怕失敗。儘可能多的失去。失敗只會讓你更好。這是成功的一大祕訣。總之，記住這些。你會是個好失敗者。一開始可能會很痛苦。但隨著你的發展，它會變得更容易。你會受到尊重和欽佩。你學了這麼多，我覺得很有成就感。你不是真正的失敗者，你將來會成為勝利者。大家好！我的名字是x x x我來自一班，我很高興站在這裡給你我的自由演講。我今天演講的主題是“好好失敗”。我相信每個人都經歷了很多。我們做過好事和壞事。當我們做壞事時，我們不應該感到悲傷。我們應該從失敗中學習，從每個錯誤中學習，並學會如何成為一個好的失敗者。這就是我今天想說的。這是我們的教訓。讓我告訴你為什麼。首先，失去是生活的一部分。這是不可避免的。這是我們都必須面對的。每個人有時都會輸。每個偉人都知道這個事實。所以不要以失敗為恥。失敗並不意味著你是一個失敗者。第二，不要逃避，接受現實吧。失敗對你是有益的。我們只是認為這是一次學習經歷。失敗是學習的機會。你可以學習如何再試一次並提高。第三，熟能生巧。為自己創造挑戰。永遠不要害怕失敗。盡你所能去失去。失敗只會讓你更好。這是成功的一大祕訣。

recently,the news that u.s attack on china's internet is always the question of how to stay online safely raises a lot of discussion in our a result,in the era of rapid development of network,we must take measures to protect our security of privacy and property effectively.
from my perspective,in the first place,we should call attention to our personal only do we not offer them at random in some strange websites,but we need to distinguish right from wrong among the numerous hermore,it is inevitable that some secure anti-virus soft wares can be it will make it possible for that network can run more addition to doing some work by ourselves,the government needs to draw up some policies to preserve national cyber involves probing for deeply rooted reasons,devising creative solutions,developing high-tech talents and strengthening the supervision.
although scientists still cannot overcome the problem completely,they are studying a great deal about how to protect our national cyber ver,consciousness of cyber security should not in this way,we just enjoy the convenience brought by the network.
I remember when I was young; my mother often described the beauty of the grasslands through this poem: “tian cang cang, ye mang mang,feng chui cao di xian niu yang”. it means in English “Clear skies, sweeping plains, the grass bowing before the wind, revealing grazing horses and sheep.” I could recite this even before entering primary school.
16years ago, my mother visited one of the grassland of Inner Mongolia. She said that no words could describe it’s stunning natural charm. With her description firmly printed on my mind I began to long for a tour to the grassland.
Sadly, this marvelous image that I had in my mind changed completely when my mum and I visited the grassland a year ago. As soon as we got there, I couldn’t believe my eyes. What was in front of me was just a piece of land with loosely grown grass. In the far distance I saw only a couple of horses feeding lazily. I asked my mother: “Where is the lush, tall grass?” As puzzled as me, she said nothing. I was shocked to see the differences between the grassland in my dream and what was in front of me.
On the way home, I thought a lot and tried to find answers.
Now I am old enough to bring awareness to other people and share my dream for the grasslands. Overgrazing and extensive farming have ruined the grassland and so taken away the charm of our homeland. But I am confident that one day the grasslands will recover and its true wealth and beauty will be realized as long as everybody gives his contribution to restore our homeland.
我的夢想
從我記事時起，我媽媽就常向我提起草原的景象。“天蒼蒼，野茫茫，風吹草低現牛羊。”的詩句，在我上國小前就已經耳熟能詳了。陪伴我去草原以前，媽媽也只去過一次草原，那是在1988年夏天，媽媽陪南方來的朋友們一起去呼和浩特市北郊的昭和草原觀光。媽媽說：草原真美呀，藍藍的天空下，茂密的草場，足有一人高，放眼望去，一望無際，風吹過，綠浪翻滾，像大海的波濤，真是一片綠色的海洋。媽媽的描述，使我從六歲起就對草原充滿嚮往。
直到去年的.國慶假期，媽媽第一次帶我去了草原以後，我腦海中草原的印象卻完全變了
當旅遊車停在了一片只有幾釐米高，更像是一個大草坪一樣的操場時，導遊說：草原到了。我滿懷喜悅的心情被下車時看到的景象迷惑了。問媽媽：這就是草原呀?!怎麼不見風吹草低現牛羊啊!媽媽也顯得很吃驚。如此低矮的草;更沒有潔白的羊群，吃草的馬兒也顯得無精打采。
在回家的路上，我想了許多是啊，過度的放牧和開墾破壞了草原的美麗，正是人類自己毀壞了我們的家園。
這次帶著遺憾的草原之行，深深地觸動了我。站在這裡，我想說，我有個願望：朋友們，讓我們每個人都盡一份力量，讓我可愛的家鄉-美麗的草原再次重現吧。
I realized this during the struggle of my life trying to build a network at the same time as running a show. I did not have the right leadership, and everything is about having the right people around you to support you. All of my mistakes were in the media—I can’t do anything privately. So when everything is about struggle-struggle, I had to say: What is this about? What is this here to show you? That is now my favorite question in crisis: What is this here to teach you or show you?
Jack Canfield in Chicken Soup for the Soul says "The greatest wound we’ve all experienced is being rejected for being our authentic self. And then we try to be what we’re not to get approval, love, acceptance, the real need for all of us is to reconnect with the essence of who we really are…we all go around hiding parts of ourselves." He said he was with a Buddhist teacher years ago who said, "Here’s the secret: If you were to meditate for 20 years, here’s where you’d finally get to: Just be yourself, but be all of you."
I’ve made a living—not a living but a real life—by being myself, using the energy of myself to serve the purpose of my soul. That purpose, I’m here to tell you, gets revealed to you daily. It is the thread that’s connecting the dots of who you are.
I’ve made a living—not a living but a real life—by being myself.

Thanksgiving is a very important American festivity and it is celebrated on the last Thursday of November.
However, schools and many shops and offices are closed for four days: Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Why is Thanksgiving such an important day?
The tradition started with the Pilgrims, the founders of America.
The Pilgrims left Great Britain in 1620. They wanted to start a new life in America .他們想在美國開始新的生活。 One hundred men, women and children left Britain on a small ship called
the Mayflower.
They arrived on the north-east coast of North America in December 1620 and founded Plymouth.
It was winter and they had no homes and little food.
They built small homes, But it was too late to cultivate crops.
The winter was very cold and harsh. Their living conditions were very bad.
The friendly Wampanoag Indians helped them during the long winter.
In the spring the Pilgrims met an Indian called Squanto. He explained how to grow corn, hunt and live in the wilderness.
Soon the Pilgrims and the Indians became good friends.
The Pilgrims worked hard . By November 1621 everyone had food and a home.
There was hope for the future. The Pilgrim leader, decided to celebrate with a dinner for the Pilgrims and the wanted to give thanks to Gd.
This was the first Thanksgiving dinner and it lasted for three days.
Today the traditional Thanksgiving meal is similar to the first.
People eatroast turkey, sweet potatoes, corn, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie.
Let's pregnant with a grateful heart。Thank all who helped us。
In the matter of courage we all have our limits. there never was a hero who did not have his bounds. i suppose it may be said of nelson and all the others whose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives when their bravery knew it had come to its limit.
I have found mine a good many times. sometimes this was expected--often it was unexpected. i know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, but you could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.
I never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. i should be at the end of the room facing all the audience. if i attempt to talk across a room i find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods i have part of the audience behind me. you ought never to have any part of the audience behind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.
I'll sit down.
Thanks!
