英语毕业演讲稿(精选10篇)
Dear schoolmates:
As I am graduating, I'd like to write this letter to express my feelings before leaving school.Looking back at the last three years of my high school life, I'm very proud that I have gained a lot. Apart from learning much knowledge in different subjects, I also learnt how to be a qualified student or a real person. Due to the help of my teachers, I know the significance of being honest, confident and warm-hearted. I really appreciate the devotion that my teachers paid.
Despite the achievements I have made, I have pities during my high school life. I think I should have exercised more rather than study all the time. After all, healthy is vital to us all.
After graduating from high school, I will enter college, a place where I may meet many challenges. I will live in college instead of living at home, which requires me to be independent. How to communicate with students who come from different cities is also a challenge.
I suggest you studying hard and building a strong body during your high school lives. Only in this way can you achieve more and have a better future.
Ladies and gentlemen:
I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.
I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.
Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Heres how it goes:
My uncle ordered popovers from the restaurants bill of fare. And when they were served, he regarded them with a penetrating stare . . . Then he spoke great Words of Wisdom as he sat there on that chair: "To eat these things," said my uncle, "you must excercise great care. You may swallow down whats solid . . . BUT . . . you must spit out the air!"
And . . . as you partake of the worlds bill of fare, thats darned good advice to follow. Do a lot of spitting out the hot air. And be careful what you swallow.
Thank you.
Dear schoolmates:
As I am graduating, Id like to write this letter to express my feelings before leaving school.I have experienced a lot over the past three years. First, I want to show my thanks to all my teachers. They are very kind and give me a lot of help. I know how to express myself in public, how to feel the beauty of nature and how to smile when I was in trouble. I think these are valuable memories that I will never forget.
However, I also have some regrets. I failed in an English speech competition, which made me very sad. I wanted to improve myself.
I will study in a college. It will be a great challenge for me. So, I must study hard now and prepare for the coming College Entrance Examination. I want to be successful.
Finally, there are some suggestions that I want to offer to you. Study hard and you will have a bright future. Listen carefully to your teachers and parents, and you will succeed in different kinds of exams. Keep fit, or you will not have enough energy to face different types of difficulties. Only in these ways can you enjoy your school lives.
Good afternoon,everyone:
Once we finish our final exams, many of us might never see each other again, and we might never sit in the classroom of St. Charles listening to our teachers. But “If not us, who? If not now, when?”This quote is said by John F. Kennedy, America’s 35th president. It means that the time is pushing us forward, and we have to keep going. We will leave many things behind the road. I feel excited for the new things that are waiting ahead of me, and also feel sad to leave St. Charles and all the great teachers and staff.
Good-by, my teachers. Many of you are the greatest teachers I’ve ever met in my life. Thank you for teaching me knowledge and skills. Thank you for helping me to be a better person. Most importantly, thank you for helping me overcome my language barrier. Good-by, my friends. Thank you for being my friends, you added color on to my life, and made my life interesting and fun. Good-by, my classmates. The last day of school might be the last time I will see you. I will miss you and all the good time we have spent together. When I look at my year book one day, I will say ,“Ha, I remember you ” And I will not forget the fun things we have done.
I have changed a lot in the three years I have been in St. Charles. Firstly, I learned many things from this school. My English improved from being able to understand nothing to being able to almost understand anything. These changes are huge. But the most important thing St. Charles gave to me is courage. The courage to talk to other people, and to actually be part of a group. I can say that St. Charles helped me pass hardest time in life. When I first came here from China. I could hardly understand anything I was very shy when I talked with people I didn’t know. With my language difficulties, I could barely talk to people and understand what they were saying. Also, the completely different culture made my life very hard. Sometimes I have to do six hours of homework and go to sleep at one o’clock. But the teachers, staff, and classmate are so nice. They give me lots of help when I need it .With that help and my effort, my English grows better and better, and the hardest time has finally passed. Thank you to all those who have helped me , I will never forget what you have done for me.
Look back at our school, it’s not fashionable, it’s not big, it doesn’t have new technology, and it even looks small at first. But we all love it. It’s like our second family, a family filled with joyfulness. Here, everyone helps everyone, everyone love everyone. I feel love and kindness here, that is something that I cannot feel from other schools. Those are the unique things about our school. That is why we loved it , and wanted to stay there.
We will miss this school so much because we’ve spent so much of our life here. But like John F. Kennedy said “If not us, who ? If not now, when ?” There are still many exciting things waiting for us in our future. We can’t just stop and miss the other beautiful sights coming up. To keep going and get a good gradd is the most important thing for me to do now, because that is what I think I’m supposed to do. It is the starting of all. You have to gain knowledge to develop your skill and to reach your goal. And I believe that I will go farther if I get more knowledge. I will remember all the great things St. Charles had taught me, and remain thankful after I leave St. Charles. And I will come back and visit our school again, and visit those teachers who taught me, and people who helped me.
Good afternoon,everyone:
She may have lacked a home, but now this teen has top honors.
A 17-year-old student who spent much of high school living bouncing around homeless shelters — and sometimes sleeping in her car — today graduated as valedictorian of her class at Charles Drew High School in Clayton County, Ga., just outside of Atlanta.
她也许是个无家可归的孩子,但是现在这个女孩拥有至高无上的荣誉。
这个17岁的学生高中大部分时间都住在收容所,有时还得睡在车里。她就读于位于亚特兰大佐治亚州克莱顿县的查尔斯德鲁高中,今天作为所在班级的毕业生代表光荣毕业,并在毕业典礼上致告别辞。
Chelsea Fearce, who held a 4.466 GPA and scored 1900 on her SATs despite having to use her cellphone to study after the shelter lights were turned off at night,“I know I have been made stronger. I was homeless. My family slept on mats on the floor and we were lucky if we got more than one full meal a day. Getting a shower, food and clean clothes was an everyday struggle,” Fearce said in a speech she gave at her graduation ceremony.
Fearce overcame her day-to-day struggles by focusing on a better day.“I just told myself to keep working, because the future will not be like this anymore,” she told WSBTV.
这位叫切尔西-菲尔斯的女孩高中绩点4.446,并在SAT考试中拿到1900分。高中期间,晚上收容所熄灯后她只能在用手机来学习,“我知道自己越来越强大。我无家可归。我的家人都睡在地板的垫子上,如果幸运的话,每天可以不止饱餐一顿。淋浴、食物和干净的衣服,这些对于我来说都是可望而不可及的,”菲尔斯在毕业演讲时说道。
菲尔斯靠着对未来更好生活的向往克服了每天的困难。“我告诉自己不要放弃,因为未来会更好”,她对WSBTV新闻网的记者表示。
One of five children, Fearce's family sometimes had an apartment to live in, but at other times had to live in homeless shelters or even out of their car, if they had one.
“You’re worried about your home life and then worried at school. Worry about being a little hungry sometimes, go hungry sometimes. You just have to deal with it. You eat what you can, when you can.”
菲尔斯家里一共有5个孩子,有时一家人还有公寓可以住,但有时不得不住在流浪收容所甚至车里(如果有车的话)。
“你要担心家庭生活,甚至在学校的时候也会。还要担心有时会挨点饿,有时会很饿。你只能这样,有吃的时候就赶快吃。”
Miraculously, Fearce overcame the odds and even tested high enough to enroll in college classes half way through her high school career. She starts college next year at Spelman College as a junior where she is planning to study biology, pre-med.
“Don’t give up. Do what you have to do right now so that you can have the future that you want,” Fearce said.
菲尔斯奇迹般地克服了这种困境,甚至在高中才上到一半的时候就取得了足以进入大学的成绩。明年她就将作为一名大学新生就读于斯贝尔曼学院,开始大学生活,她计划在医学预科学习生物。
“不要放弃。现在就做你应该做的,这样你就会拥有梦想中的未来。”菲尔斯说。
Dear schoolmates:
As I am graduating, I'd like to write this letter to express my feelings before leaving school. Learning in this school is a very enjoyable and meaningful experience for me. In the past three years, I have understood the pleasure of efforts and challenges, which will be beneficial to my life in the future.
While I attained a lot during this period, I also regretted wasting much time. With the much pressure on me, I sometimes read some novels in order to relax myself. The novels may relieve me from stress, but I should have focused on study.
No matter what I did in the past, it is essential to adapt myself to a new and hopeful life. Therefore, I will try my best to face more challenges in the university. I am full of confidence that I'll get used to it soon.
Last, I want to give you some advice. Don't put much pressure on yourselves. Keep in mind: it is not just the results that make it important, but what you have done during the preparations.
Good luck to all of you!
Good afternoon!
Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The college students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. But again,
the cynics are wrong. We care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. Last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. I believe in all my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. I believe in our future.
Good afternoon,everyone:
I am for the robust and free exchange of ideas, as essential to the mission of a great university as it is to the health of our democracy.
I am for a world where we welcome the immigrant, the poor, and the forgotten; we did [do] not shut them out or silence them; a world where showing empathy and understanding is considered the true hallmark of success, of a life well-lived.
That is what I am for.
Yale’s mission says, in part, that we are “committed to improving the world today and for future generations.” That commitment does not end at graduation.
Soon you will leave Yale and, as Robert Penn Warren, who studied and taught at Yale, wrote, “You will go into the convulsion of the world, out of history and into history.”
Indeed, you’ll go into history and make history.
Rich Parent, Poor Parent:
David Brooks writes today that there are large class differences in parenting styles. These different parent styles may explain the continued success of the upper class. Hey, this fits in very well into the parenting theme week at 11D. Thanks, Davey. (And thanks, Jeremy, for the early morning e-mail.)
David picks up on the work of Annette Lareau who finds that although working class children are more innocent and enjoy more freedom, they havent been prepared for economic success as well as upper class kids. (I have copied the whole article below the flap. Take that, Times Select)
The funny thing about academics is that although they are highly educated, they are poorly paid. They are socio-economic anomalies. They either reside as the poor shlubs in wealthy neighborhoods or as the weirdoes in working class towns. We’ve been the class outsiders for my whole life, and I’ve had the chance to observe both life styles closely.
There are huge differences between the parenting styles between the upper and working class families. Poor families respond less quickly to learning problems and are less aggressive with the school bureaucracy. They are less likely to verbally interact with their kids. They are less involved in homework activities. Middle and upper class parents are more likely to reward independent thinking. All those factors will definitely impact on their kids’ futures.
But I hope that Brooks and his pet academic aren’t insinuating that parenting styles alone impact on a child’s economic success. Way too many other factors there. Poor families are also likely to live in towns with poorer schools. Peers will be more troubled. The poor families will be coping with a variety of problems that make it hard to be good parents – financial stress, drug and alcohol problems, lack of health care, depression. And really smart kids can in many instances over come all that and succeed, though even the smart ones still face obstacles. I would love to know if the researchers controlled for all that.
These parenting differences also don’t negate our obligation to helping these groups reach their potential.
That said, I’m sure that parenting styles are one factor among many that determine a child’s socio-economic future. My kid is already on such a different path from some of his buddies from school. At six years old, their futures are already written on their faces.
What I would like to do is to take the best parts of both parenting practices. Somehow combine the respect for adults, the freedom, and the innocence of working class homes with the value for education, the aggressive independence, and confidence of the upper class. It’s a tricky line to navigate, but that’s what I’m going for.
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, my dear teachers and fellow graduates:
It is a great honour for me to make a speech on behalf of the graduating class.
For the past three years, we lived and studied in the beautiful school. We had classes in the spacious and bright classrooms, read all kinds of books in the big libary and had lots of fun on the playground. Three years has passed. But we have learnt lots of useful konwledge. We are stronger and taller. Our teachers and parents did a lot for us. The classmates helped each other. Thank you, dear teachers and parents! Thank you, my dear classmates!
Now I hope our school will become better and better!
