it is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty. everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
today in china,with the rising of our living standard, people's requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly. some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks. but it seems to me,all
these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
in my opinion,we shouldn't only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty. as we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more important. this was confirmed by a famous russian writer in words much like this: "a person is
not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely. "
here, i'd like to quote two typical instances and i'm sure, my dear friends,fromthem you'll find out what real beauty is.
recently i learnedfromthe radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer. she is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song."devotion of love". not long ago,she was invited to zhejiang province to give performance. the moment she was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward. worse still,after her request was satisfied, she didn't begin to sing at once. instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece. thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour. so when she at last showed up and started to sing "devotion of love",a man rose upfromhis seat and shouted at her,"you don't have any devotion of love. you are not qualified to sing this song ! "hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man. at this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.
how disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this! it is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.
now, i'm coming to another true story. it's about a poor, ordinary looking old woman. she was a widow without any children, living barelyfromhand to mouth by picking odds andendsfromrubbish heaps. however,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up. every day she laboredfrommorning till night. in order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood. she got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
Ladies and gentlemen: Good morning!
Today, the title of my speech is A Lesson from Nature.
Around us , there are plants, animals and many other things. We live in nature, so to keep the balance of nature is very important for us. But today, too many trees are still being cut down in many countries and flood all over the world are getting more and more serious, A lot of land has gone with them. This is a lesson from nature.
When people move into a new place, they often cut down trees or pull out many wild plants to make farmland. They don’t know that trees can stop flood and wind from washing or blowing the earth away, and that many of these wild plants are food for some wild animals. If the animals can’t find enough plants to eat, they will die or have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a kind of wild flowers. The mountain tigers there eat the deer. But people killed many mountain tigers to protect the deer. soon there were so many deer that the ate up all the wild flowers. Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of the young trees .so the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees, then the deer had nothing to eat and many of them died.
The number of trees, deer, tigers, wild flowers and plants has changed much—less and less. We need to do more to keep the balance of nature.
Thank you!
Whether there's afterlife, the answer has never been the same. The atheists deny after life, believing that our life is no more than from the cradle to the grave. They may care about their illustrious names after death; they may feel attached to the affection of their offspring, but they never lay their hopes on their afterlife. They may also say that good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil, but they don't really believe any retribution in their after life.
However, in the religious world or among the superstitious people, the belief in afterlife is very popular. They do not only believe in afterlife, but thousands of reincarnations as well. In the mysterious world, there are the paradise and the hell, the celestial beings and the gods, the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas.
Maybe they really believed it, or maybe they just wanted to make use of people's veneration, the ancient emperors always declared that they were the real dragons, the sons of God, while the royal ministers claimed to be the reincarnations of various constellations. But can the stars reincarnate?
Many people burn incense and kowtow, do good deeds and strive for virtues, not just for the present, but mainly to let God see their sincerity so as to be reborn into a better afterlife, or to achieve the highest enlightenment after several lives of practice. They do believe in afterlife. But I can't help asking: Suppose there were no afterlife, would you still do good deeds and strive for virtues? And If God does not see what you are doing, would you still be so upright and selfless? If you work, not for serving the public and liberating the others, but just for a better afterlife of your own, isn't it a little too selfish? Comparing with this kind of believers, those who don't believe in afterlife, but still keep doing good deeds, are the most sincere and honest philanthropists, because they do them not for themselves but for other.
You may wonder if I believe in afterlife. My answer is: I know nothing about my previous life, so I dare not make improper comments on afterlife. But I do hope there's afterlife! Because our present life is so short that so many things slip away before our proper understanding. I have so many dreams, so many wishes, so many ambitions, as well as so many regrets and concerns. If there were no afterlife, all of them will remain unrealized!
I'm not contented with the present commonplace life, I'm very much attached to the affections that should have been mine but have been washed away by the hurrying time, and I yearn for the perfection and maturity if I could start all over again. So believe it or not, I'd rather there were afterlife.
Distinguished judges, dear students:
Hello everyone 20xx year has passed more than half, we also from a full of ambition high school, became a college student. During this period although suffered the tether suspect Straits in no way can enrich the university life and give us brought new vista of the new situation, because here is we climb the ideal starting point, here is our accumulated knowledge and experience of the new homes.
Today, my speech topic is "my university, my dream!".
May the middle school period has been read or heard many many many information about university life, people say that college life is colorful, but also people say that college life is boring hole, wasted youth. Perhaps, the latter more. Yes, in fact, they say is right, because the real experience, they will then say, the two are not contradictory. This is because in the University, some people really have a very full, very happy, very reluctant to do this they think is a lifetime can not repeat the pure land. Also some people, from the foot of the campus is very disappointed, feel that everything is not the same as they imagine. From the unexamined dawdle, finally wake up when it detects abruptly, as if overnight, University has gone, along with passing also has its own precious youth. Remember, only regret that the university has been mixed for several years, and there will be no regret on the University's people. Even those in the school down to his alma mater is like hell on earth who, years later, recalled the University of time, also tend to feeling extremely, even tears. No matter what your future college is, at least you should always remind yourself that there is only one college life in life.
In the past, whether you have a laugh, with a sun, which has become a permanent memory, coupled with a lock it closed it! Put in front of us, new teachers, new classmates, new journey, new dreams, new life is being staged and, in the face of all this, we the how to do. Because of the cruel reality, we will be the embodiment of one knight, erasing the chest trauma, obliterating the glory of the past, we take the former weapon, ready to go. The goal of the new semester is the beginning of our new journey!
The dream is the map of our success, only to pay the action, we have taken a solid pace, in order to allow us to reach the success of the other side. To determine our goal, we must strive for his hard work. You have to aim high! We have to stand up for our long record.
Life is the pursuit of the ideal, the ideal is the life of the lamp, lost the role of this light, you will lose the courage to live. Therefore, only by adhering to the lofty ideals of life, will not be lost in the life of the sea. Tolstoy will be the ideal of life into a lifetime of ideals, a stage of the ideal, the ideal of a year, a month's ideal, and even one day, one hour, one minute. When you hear here, the students, do you think of their own ideals?
The flower of life is the spring of life, it is beautiful, but short-lived. As a college student should study hard in this period,, to make progress, to find their own piece of the sky. Youth is the hope of the motherland, the future of the nation. Every man is the master of his own future.
The historical responsibility in the shoulder, we be one's unshirkable responsibility. We must be brave to provoke the responsibility on the shoulders, although there will be waves, but also have consistent on Changhong. Let us come up with "blow sand started to gold" perseverance, "straight out hanging Yunfan economic sea," the courage and to face the ups and downs of life! "Bao Jianfeng from sharpen out, plum blossom from the bitter cold", I firmly believe that a pains, a harvest, learning is a bitter root, learning fruit is sweet. We worked hard, march forward courageously, will usher in the day of harvest. Hope that a few years later, we can harvest the fruits of their hard work in exchange for. The classmates, today, let us together to set the university about, let us say goodbye to the summer of filariasis, that autumn is fruitful, with the youth of the interpretation we once the oath, sweat and forging we tomorrow's brilliant. We will walk together in the days ahead, and we share a common pursuit.
University life is colorful, but also need us to grasp and deep experience. Some people say: "ordinary college students have the same ordinary, but not ordinary university has their own brilliant." However, you can choose the ordinary, but not the choice of mediocrity; can be, believe who all want to be extraordinary. Well, I'm here today.
Finally, only one sentence: "the road ahead will be long, I will seek." Yes, to me, is to share with you!
Thank you!
Good afternoon, dear judges. Today my speech is “I love black-facedspoonbill.
On a beautiful winter day, I happened to meet the lovely spirit------
Black Faced Spoonbill, a type of migratory bird, which spends winter atHong-Shu-Lin in my city every year. Covered with snow-white feathers, it hasblack legs and a black beak. Besides the blacks and whites, an amazing splash ofyellow is under its neck. So elegant that I couldn’t help loving it at firstsight.
With a big and spoon-shaped beak, it can clasp fishes easily, which makesit a powerful hunter in birds.
However, with human expansion and pollution, only around 20__ ones areliving all over the world.
Like the eleven swan princes in Andersen’s Fairy Tale, the Black FacedSpoonbills have always been struggling to find a tiny rock which can offer thema momentary tranquility. Fortunately, they have found one in my beloved home. Iwould always hold them dearly to my heart and wish they would return with flocksof chicks in the following years, and singing……
Oh, I have a home, such a beautiful home, where I play and resthappily.
Oh, give them a home, such a wonderful home, where the spoonbills play allday.
Thank you very much.

honorable judges and dear friends, my name is maer dongyan, i’m very happy today to stand here to share my speech, my imagination, and my story as an air traffic controller with all of you.
i, as a 35-year-old air traffic controller, have been working on the tower for nearly ten years. through these years’ working, i really come to love this job. besides, as the husband of my beloved, the father of my 8-year-old daughter, and the son of my old parents, i also love my family, a happy family.
however, it has been really hard to coordinate my work and my family.
it’s generally considered great to be an air traffic controller by the public, for the job is believed to be well-paid and quite easy. i was also one of them before i started the work. but things have been entirely different from what i used to think. as an air traffic controller of the new century, we’re facing tasks and barriers greater and harder than ever, that is, we have to ensure the safety and order of the fast-developing civil aviation. we’re burdened with pressure, responsibilities, the trust of hundreds of pilots, the lives of tens of thousands of passengers, and the hopes of millions of families. every step we take, every word we say is connected to the safety of passengers. and disasters may occur if we’re even a little bit careless. then, how can that be easy?
as a man who owns a family, i also have to take care of my family. still, it isn’t that easy. since i took the job 10 years ago, i haven’t had enough time to be with my family. so many festivals have i spend with microphones, but not my family and friends, just because my job needs me. so many times have my wife
看完“大学生英语演讲稿优秀范文”的人还看：complained about my returning home late and having meals outside often, just because my job needs me. and so many times, my mom or dad is sick in bed, but i cannot be there with them in time, just because my job needs me. i cannot fully devote myself to my family because my job needs me, a lot of people need me. and again, as a man with a family, how can that be easy?
even though i’m not competent as a father, a husband, and a son, i still love my family. my daughter once said that it was her happiest time to see me back from work. and it’s the same with me. i’m pleased and grateful to see that my family can support and understand my work and my little devotion to them.
i have made many sacrifices as an air traffic controller. i really feel sorry for my family. but as i help pilots find their destinations under terrible weather conditions, and then hear “thanks” from them, i’m satisfied. and as i see planes taking off and landing safely, and make sure that hundreds more families can get together, i’m comforted. i even seem to be able to see the happy smiles on their faces.
such is my job, though i cannot enjoy much of the happiness my family brings to me, i can experience the sense of responsibility through my work. i’ll never regret this, regret choosing my job. it is through these years that i know what responsibility and devotion really mean. and it is through these years that i realize what family really means to me---supporting and understanding. i really appreciate them.
with my family as an anchor for me, i firmly believe that i can overcome all the difficulties on my way, and make a contribution to the cause of air traffic control. and i believe, i am, and always will be a member of civil aviation, and my family as well.
that’s all for my speech today, thank you very much for your listening.
good evening ,ladies and gentlemen:
we are the world ,we are the future someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”。 i don’t know who wrote these words, but i’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. we are all in the position of the farmers. if we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. if we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
we are young. “how to spend the youth?” it is a meaningful question. to answer it, first i have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. it’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. it’s the matter of the will. it’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
a poet said “to see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. several days ago, i had a chance to listen to a lecture. i learnt a lot there. i’d like to share it with all of you. let’s show our right palms.we can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. i have a short line of life. what about yours? i wondered whether we could see our future in this way. well, let’s make a fist. where is our future? where is our love, career, and life?tell me.yeah, it is in our hands. it is held in ourselves.
we all want the future to be better than the past. but the future can go better itself. don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. from the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. we’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way.
failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
as what i said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”。 the past has gone. nothing we do will change it. but the future is in front of us. believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. and from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “we are the world, we are the future.
I love the school,if say my childhood like a string of shells,then I think the life of the school in the xxx is one of the most beautiful one.I have learned a man I love the school and learned a lot of knowledge,I am here to grow up happily.I love the warmth of the big collective,united as one love it,love its elegant environment,love its rich variety of activities.School students to participate in organized competition,students are encouraged to register; clean up the campus health,we are all hands-on; the establishment of xxx tra-curricular groups,everyone fighting over who gets to participate.So one thing left me with an indelible impression.
Also remember that it was New Years party in 20xxx,when Classroom layout looks xxx tremely beautiful! The color bars covered with colorful classroom on the blackboard the words "Happy New Year" a few characters,the following horses are running in the lovely painted pony,glass puffing "Happy New Year" message.The General Assembly began,me and Liu Yunpeng as a moderator to tell you solemnly announced: " New Years party now!",The students were performing a self-compiled dance,little drama,poetry recitation,heartily xxx press our joy.Applause,laughter break out.We also conducted a lot of interesting games.Suddenly,the door opened,Zhao Shu Yi Smiling mother holding two bo xxx cake walked."Oh,the cake myself!
"Everyone cheered xxx citedly." Sub-cake now! Let us cheer -! "Liu Yunpeng joyfully waving his hands,said.Suddenly,a wave of cheering audio-visual sea wave after wave.Yu teacher gently lifted cake bo xxx es.Wow,this cake is so beautiful! Green kiwi fruit and orange,pineapple pieces and the bright red "Happy Birthday" Picture with xxxx ceptionally good-looking.Yu teacher was showing the knife,the cake into pieces and handed us constantly spoke words of blessing.I took the cake was so xxx cited.I know that this cake means that we have entered a new year; we grow up,mature and become more intelligent,and Should be more sensible,more know for others services.
At first,we just do not understand what happened to xxx iao Maohai,and now we have become the schools Big Brothers Big Sisters of the.This requires the teachers education is inseparablefromthe cultivation of the school.The sound of this song and laughter,weended the New Year get-together.I saw the smiles of the students are xxx tremely happy heart.Ah,such a collective,so how can I not love it,how can we not feel happy? I love my group,I love my school,because it is full of joy.Here I grow up happily! If you ask me,how kind of your alma mater,I will proudly say to you: "It is my hearts paradise!"
E or disagree:
Museums should be made my eyes, museums of course should be made free.
We know that, as a part of culture, museums restore many culture relics. These are typical symbols for a certain times. As a citizen of our country, it is necessary and natural to learn our past history. Recent years, more and more museums are open free to the public. I couldn't agree more with it. Free museum will greatly motivate all kinds of people to approach. What's more, in this fast developing age, museums have many new and advanced invents inside. It will be a wonderful place for people who want to learn more. Parents can often take their children to museums to learn about history and some technical knowledge. In a word, I think government should try to make more museums free for citizens.
E or disagree: Zoos should be banned.
Nowadays, lots of people start to realize that zoos are not a good place for animals. People need zoos because it is an easy way to close the animals and also because it's convenient for people to observe them. However, zoos are in fact a cruel place for animals. Animals should live in their natural habitat. An animal's natural instinct is to run and to hunt. But that's not for animals kept in zoos. Everyday, people feed them. They've never been taught how to hunt for food and will gradually lose their natures. That will be quite cruel for a animal, especially for wild animals such as tigers and lions. You can often find in zoos that a tiger kept in cage has a loose expression in its set animals in zoos and therefore feel that they won't meet danger and may be able to protect them from dying out. This may be just a excuse we find for ourselves to make animals in cages just as entertainment. We always say animals are our friends, then why we put our friends in cages?
good morning,dear teacher and my friends.
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 expression 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 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.
Thank you!
亲爱的老师，朋友们：
早上好！
大部分的人都想受人欢迎，但是并非每个人都能达到目标。受欢迎的秘诀何在？事实上是很简单的。步骤一，先改善我们的外表。我们得确保自己很健康，并且穿着体面。当我们既健康又穿戴整齐时，不仅看起来更有精神，自己也会觉得好多了。此外，我们要保持微笑并表现得很友善。毕竟，脸部表情是外观很重要的一环。如果我们能做到这一点，别人会被我们的美好外表所吸引，并对我们的自信印象深刻。
另一个重要步骤，就是培养对别人的体贴。永远以他人为重，并把别人的利益放在自己的利益之前。当个好听众也是很重要的；如此一来，别人才能很自在地对我们吐露心事。然而，不管我们做什么事，绝对不要说闲言闲语。最重要的是，要做自己，不要当虚伪的人。只有对人真诚又尊重时，才能赢得他人的尊敬。如果我们能做到以上几点，我相信受人欢迎是指日可待的事。
谢谢大家！

一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，因为它提醒了我，我们能够创造我们想要的未来。我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子，我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差，有很多草籽，收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种，什么收获也没有。

我们是年轻的。“怎样度过青春？”这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它，我首先要问“从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么？”青春不是人生的一个时期，而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

一位诗人说“从一粒沙看世界，从一朵花看天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒在一刹那里收藏”。几天前，我有了一个听讲座的机会，从中我学到了很多东西。现在，我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手，我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱，事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短，那你们的呢？我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的，让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿？我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿？告诉我！是的，它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。

我们所有人都希望未来能比过去更美好，但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣，微笑吧，为你的曾经拥有。从过去来看，生活是艰苦的，但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择感觉，但是我们能选择和它相关的东西。失败并不意味着你不拥有成功，它只意味着你应该用另一种方式去做这件事。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，只意味着你应该更加努力。

正如我在前面所说的“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”过去的已经过去，无论我们无力改变，但是未来却在我们前方。相信“我们给了世界什么，世界也将给我们”。并且从今天起，让我们一起做我们自己的主人，一起大声说出“世界是我们的，未来是我们的。”
Over the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute. Right before I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channels we had already had. In prime time at night, they all had interesting shows. Therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and I-had to argue over what to watch. Finally, we agreed that we should watch the "most interesting" program... If wecould agree what that was.
However, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had TV, there were only one or two channels available. The increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.
Fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one color. Today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.
Fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers. Today, we read English
newspapers like the China Daily and the 21st Century, as well as various Chinese newspapers.
Fifteen years ago, English majors took only courses in language and literature. Today, we also study Western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.
The emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in China's history; an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the Chinese nation.
We enjoy the abundance of choice. But this has not come easily.
About 150 years ago, China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats. It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. The policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.
Like others of my age, I'm too young to have experienced the time when the Chinese people had no right to choose. However, as the next century draws near, it is time to ask: What does choice really mean to us young people?
Is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? Is choice an empty promise that never materializes? Or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?
First, I would like to say: To choose means to claim opportunities. I am a third-year English major. An important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. I can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. I can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. Actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in China.
Indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. I would love to work in such big cities as Beijing or Shanghai or Shenzhen. I would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. I would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced. I would also love to put down roots in central and western China, which is underdeveloped, but holdsgreat potential.
All of these sound good. But they are only possibilities. To those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, I would like to say: To choose means to accept challenge.
To us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition. In the next century, competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins. With increasing international exchanges, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world. This is calling for a higher level of our personal development.
Fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage. But today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone.
Given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination.
As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
Nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life. But it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions.
Economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health.
To those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, I would like to say, To choose means to take responsibility. When we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: "It's just my own business. " As policy makers of the next century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us.
The traditional Chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family. To me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programs. Rather, it is the whole of the human family. As I am making my choices, I will not forget the smile of my teacher when I correctly spelled out the word "China" for the first time, I will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of Jiangxi Province. I will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in Bosnia, Chechnya and Somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty. All these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family. At different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective. Now as I am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it
can lead a peaceful and prosperous life.
We've all been taught that we should help people.It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others.It may even win us favors in return.However,we must be realistic.We can't say yes to every request.If we did,we would fail or go crazy for sure.Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help.In this case,we must know how to say no politely.
When we need to say no,here is one method we can try.First,we should tell the truth.If we really can't do something,we should just say so.Second,we should remember to refuse requests politely.We must communicate clearly,but must also be sincere and sympathetic.A true friend will understand.Finally,we must not feel guilty about saying no.Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do.It can save ourselves,and them,a lot of trouble.In short,we cannot please everyone all the favors is a part of life.
