i planted it, and it bore fruit as big as a five bushel measure. now had i used this
for holding liquids, it would have been too heavy to lift; and had i cut it in half
for ladles, the ladles would have been too flat for such purpose. certainly it was
a huge thing, but i had no use for it and so broke it up.

是....... 要麻烦大家背诵了！其实....... 你有把握前两段就打动评委，那....... （不说了）。 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.” 参考译文 世界是我们的，未来是我们的 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。”篇三：外研社杯演讲比赛演讲稿 what we can not afford to lose good morning ladies and gentlemen,i am shibing.today i will talk about what we
can not afford to lose. to begin with,i want to mention that we will get a lot in our whole
life.meanwhile,we will lose a lot of things in our life.but the most important thing
is that we can not afford to lose honesty. honesty is a basic standard of being a human.beside, honesty is a traditional
moral of china.since ancient times,we all take honesty as a standard of judge a person ’s quality.we can not afford to lose honesty
because losing honesty means to be fail. in business,losing honesty means losing money or customers,then you will fail
in your business.take a simple example,a seller who always gives short weight to the customers ,he will earn less money or even lose
the customers in the long term,because customers are more likely to buy things from
the seller who is honest,and we won’t buy things from the seller if we know he is
dishonest.
in career,losing honesty means losing a job or the opportunity to apply for a
job.when i was watching the tv program zhi lai zhi wang ,there is a beautiful lady
who fail to apply the job because of her fake academic credential.on the contrary,a
man who succeed in applying the job because he is honest. in our daily life,losing honesty means losing friends or other people’s trust to us. if a person is dishonest,no one would like to get along
with him,and on one want to be a friend with him.in addiction,being honest can ger respect from others,the opposite to dishonest.
all in all,honesty is very important for being a human,we can nor afford to lose
it.

years have seen an increasing number of reports on the extinction of species, soil
erosion as well as air pollution. the history of industrialization and urbanization
has been a history of declining environmental quality. we may be satisfied with our
so called modern life, but please do not turn a blind eye to what ’s happened around
us. water is polluted. animals are killed. resources are devoured. and farmlands turn
into desserts.
ladies and gentlemen, the earth is in our hands. save it, or destroy it, it’
