Short speech script

(1) My ideal

A person cannot live without an ideal. An ideal is a stone, which can knock out a spark; an ideal is a fire, which ignites an extinguished lamp; an ideal is a lamp, which illuminates. Lighting the road at night; ideals are the road, leading you towards dawn. Without ideals, like a bird without wings, it will never be able to soar freely in the blue sky. Everyone has his own ideal, which determines the direction of his efforts and judgment. People without ideals in life are pitiful. Ideals include our yearning for the future, our hopes for the future, and our longing for a better future.

Life is the pursuit of ideals, and ideals are the guiding lights of life. If you lose the role of this light, you will lose the courage to live. Therefore, only by adhering to lofty ideals in life can we not lose our way in the ocean of life. Tolstoy divided the ideals of life into the ideals of a lifetime, the ideals of a stage, the ideals of a year, the ideals of a month, and even the ideals of a day, an hour, and a minute. When you hear this, classmates, do you think of your own ideals? Let’s talk about my ideals! My ideal is to publish a collection of poems, and I have even thought of the title, called "Green Grass by the River." You may ask why, and at this time, I will proudly answer: "I have the same ambition as Mr. Lu Xun, but he hopes to use words to awaken the gradually indifferent hearts of the Chinese people, which should be patriotic. heart. And I want to use words to save people’s hearts that are closed by greed.”

How to say it? In today's world, there are many people who cut down trees indiscriminately and do not cherish the forest resources God has given us; some people catch and kill animals indiscriminately, even nationally protected animals; and some people Many people have built magnificent factories. The factories are discharging sewage and waste gas, making the small fish homeless... and the fundamental reason that leads them to do this is greed! If you are not greedy, you will not catch and kill some precious animals indiscriminately just to enrich your wallet; if you are not greedy, you will not build factories that harm the environment and do not do a good job in environmental protection for your own selfish desires. ! It makes the grass by the river no longer green!

Because of this, I decided to use words to write articles that awaken people’s souls, and turned them into a collection of poems to awaken their cold and heartless hearts! Although my ideal is not to be a financier or thinker, I hope I can make some contribution to the world!

(2) "The Final Sprint"

Today, the title of my speech is "The Final Sprint".

There is a story like this: a magician performed a magic trick in front of the Sultan. His wonderful performance made the Sultan highly praised and he was called a "genius".

But a minister said: "Your Majesty, the master does not fall from the sky. This master's skills are the result of his diligent practice." The minister's rebuttal made the Sultan very angry, so he asked the minister to come. The castle reflected and gave him a calf to keep him company.

The minister practiced holding a calf every day in the castle, walking from the lower steps to the top of the tower. After a few months, the calf grew into a very strong bull, and the minister's strength also increased greatly.

One day, the Sultan wanted to see the minister. When he saw the minister holding the big bull, he was very surprised, "O Allah! How miraculous and incredible this is!" The minister said: "Your Majesty, Masters do not fall from the sky, my strength is the result of my diligent practice. ”

Different mentality will lead to different results. Only hard-working sweat and hard-working food will taste sweet. . On the road to success, as long as we take a few more steps, we can sign a contract with success.

Before the final exam, we have to take a few more steps to make the final sprint. During the exam, we should abide by the examination style and discipline, carry forward the quality of integrity, use real talents and practical learning to test success, and achieve excellent results. Students should make further progress and make further progress. Students with poor grades should find out the root cause, work hard, and not let failure defeat us. Because failure does not mean that you are a loser, it only means that you have not succeeded yet; failure does not mean that you cannot succeed, it only means that you also need to change your ways; failure does not mean that you are inferior to others, it only means that you still have flaws.

In short, there is no success without diligence, and there is no gain without dedication; only with sweat can you achieve results, and with eternal faith, you will definitely achieve your goals.

June is full of joyful songs and laughter, and flowers are bright in June; June is the final sprint, and June is the season to let your dreams fly. The high school entrance examination and college entrance examination are over, and for us, we must prepare for entering higher grades with good study habits and excellent results.

My speech is over, thank you all.

(3) Develop civilized habits and do Civilized students

Teachers and classmates:

Good morning!

The topic I want to talk about today is "Develop civilized habits and be a civilized student."

Let me tell you two examples first:

The first example is: Singapore is a country where English is commonly spoken, and various slogans in public places in this country Most are written in English. However, some of the slogans involving civility and politeness, such as "No spitting", "No smoking", "No entering the lawn", etc. are written in Chinese. Why? People replied: Because most of the people who engage in these uncivilized behaviors are tourists from mainland China. To this end, a middle school principal who visited Singapore said earnestly: Uncivilized behavior is also a national humiliation.

The second example is: According to CCTV reports, chewing gum residues can be seen everywhere in Tiananmen Square after the National Day, which is particularly dazzling. There are actually 600,000 pieces of chewing gum residues in the 400,000 square meters of Tiananmen Square. , in some places there were 9 pieces of chewing gum stains on less than one square meter of ground. The dense stains formed a strong contrast with the sanctity and solemnity of Tiananmen Square.

The above two examples show that everything about civilization is composed of details. Through these details, we see that civilization is still a certain distance away from our country, so each of our students should develop civilized habits. , Be a civilized student. Especially for our students at Shiqiao Central Primary School, many of you have become members of Shiqiao Central Primary School through various channels and efforts. Unfortunately, there are still some uncivilized behaviors among some of our classmates. For example, we can always see white garbage on our campus and on the stairs that is very inconsistent with our beautiful campus. Especially on Saturdays and Sundays, garbage can be seen everywhere in classrooms and on campus. Some students even think that there are students on duty anyway. It doesn’t matter if you clean it and throw it away; for another example, you can see the commotion in the corridor of the classroom, pushing and shoving when walking, and breaking doors and windows at will without feeling distressed; another example is that some students on campus use swear words and swear words to each other, Climbing school walls, flag fences and carport fences at will, and some students even deliberately damaged school public property. Many of our classmates put the study of cultural knowledge first and often ignore the development of social morality and civilized habits, which essentially reflects a person's ideological quality. In fact, good behavioral habits are the prerequisite for ensuring our good learning and the basis for establishing a healthy personality. Students who do not have good behavioral habits in school are undisciplined and unhygienic, disrupting the entire school learning environment. On the contrary, if we develop civilized behavioral habits, the learning environment will be good and orderly. We know that only when students in a school have good civilized behavioral habits can they build an excellent learning environment and create excellent academic performance. Now, we are in the most critical period of exploration in life. What we do during this period will subtly affect our own psychological quality, and civilized behavior helps us improve our own psychological quality and at the same time improve our mental quality. Our own moral quality, if we do not do a good job in building our own moral quality at this time, then even if we have rich scientific and cultural knowledge, what use will it be to others, ourselves and society? Therefore, we should be adults first and then become adults. To become a useful person, don't be a machine that simply masters some knowledge and skills, but become a person who develops harmoniously in body and mind. Civilization is the forefront of our quality. If we have civilization, we will have the most precious spiritual wealth in the world.

Countless examples show that the key to a brilliant career and a successful life is high moral character. We, who represent the future of the nation, have many things to learn and inherit. However, the most basic question is, what kind of spiritual outlook, what kind of ideological quality, and what kind of moral standards should we use to inherit the legacy of human civilization? baton.

Classmates, when we sow an action, we will reap a habit; when we sow a habit, we will reap a character; civilization has been placed in an important position in people's hearts. We should talk to civilization all the time. Never take civilized behavior as an example. Get used to seeing things as small things. Everyone's gestures convey a wealth of civilized information. Let us start from now, start from ourselves, start from little things, develop good civilized habits, be civilized students, and control our Mouth, do not spit; control our hands, do not litter; control our feet, do not trample on flowers and plants. I believe that through the hard work of all our teachers and students, we will create a peaceful, orderly campus with a good learning environment. Thank you all.

< p>Be a civilized person

Teachers and classmates:

Good morning! The title of my speech today is "Being a Civilized Person".

I remember someone said: "For people, writing is easier than doing. We must always think about what I am doing, how I am doing, and what kind of person I want to be. "A hundred people will have a hundred answers to what kind of person they should be, but behind every answer there is a basic point, that is, to be a civilized person first.

What is civilization? Civilization is the smile when we meet on the road, the enthusiastic help when classmates are in trouble, the kindness when getting along with others, the greetings when seeing teachers, and the "sorry" when accidentally bumping into each other. The act of consciously putting garbage into the trash can is an active stop when you see someone spitting... Civilization is a quality, civilization is a kind of cultivation, and civilization is a behavior that is respected and widely praised by everyone.

To be a civilized person, you must be able to use civilized language and do civilized things. To put it simply, we must be polite and reasonable. China is known as the "Land of Etiquette", and treating others politely is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. Living in a happy era, if we cannot inherit and carry forward this fine tradition, we cannot truly be happy people. "Good words warm your ears for three winters, but bad words hurt your ears for six months." Everyone should remember this proverb. Being civilized and polite is the easiest thing to do, and it is also the most important thing in life. It is more important than the highest wisdom and all knowledge. Politeness can often replace the most precious feelings.

Students, let us wish together under the national flag, and wish that our lives will be filled with the flowers of civilization! I wish we can move towards civilization step by step!

Being a civilized person is the eternal calling! A lifelong pursuit!

< p>Purify the language and beautify the campus

Students:

Today, the teacher will talk to you about the topic of beautifying the campus. I think some students may be thinking now, beautify the campus? Isn't our campus beautiful? Look at the campus: the playground is clean and free of paper scraps, the green trees and lawns around are full of talk, the buildings are neatly arranged in rows, the students are so beautiful in red and green, and there are green waters and mountains outside to hug us, who dares to say that we Isn’t your campus beautiful? But today, the teacher wants to tell the truth: there are still some shortcomings in our campus, and there are still "ugly" things.

So where is this "ugliness" hidden?

I say this "ugliness" is hidden in the mouths of some students. A few days ago, I passed by the classroom door and heard some classmates singing a limerick like this to each other: (What) Studying is hard, studying is tiring, and you have to pay tuition for studying. It is better to join the underworld and have food, drink and status< /p>

There are even worse ones below, and I’m too embarrassed to recite them for you. At that time, I returned to the office with a heavy heart and talked about such things with the teacher. When the teachers were angry, they told me that there was a jingle circulating some time ago: (what) the first grade is a thief, the second grade is a thief, the beauties in the third grade are not pursued, the handsome guys in the fourth grade line up in pairs, and the fifth grade Love letters are flying all over the sky, and the sixth-grade mandarin ducks are in pairs.

What are these words? What kind of person made this up? What is the purpose of fabricating it? Have students thought about such issues? Yesterday, the teacher thought about these questions all night. Now my answer is very affirmative. Regarding the first question-what are these words? I said it was nonsense, thinking that there was no such fact at all and that it was pure fabrication. The second question - what kind of people made this up? My answer is: It was made up by people who have no ambitions, are unwilling to learn, and only want immediate comfort and enjoyment, and have ulterior motives. What are their ulterior motives? --They have learned bad things, and they want more people to learn bad things too. For example, they have fallen into the water and are about to drown, and they want to find a few more people to join them in drowning together. This is their purpose. Therefore, students must be careful!

The ancients said: "Words are the voice of the heart", that is to say, a person's language directly reflects his thoughts. Some people say that the eyes are the windows to the soul. I say that language is a mirror of the soul. What kind of language is what kind of person a person is. If you want to be a civilized student, you should first start by learning to speak civilized language.

Campus is a place to educate, cultivate and shape people. The campus should be a beautiful and pure place, so we will never allow such uncivilized language to tarnish our beautiful and pure campus and poison the children. Our pure and beautiful hearts, everyone said, right?

Let us take action and consciously resist the spread of these uncivilized languages. Let us take action and make everyone consciously use civilized and polite language.

Let us all use beautiful language to add beauty to our campus!

(6) How to be a " Civilized middle school students"

Dear teachers and classmates:

Hello everyone!

My name is XX, from class X, year X. During this half-semester, I won praise from teachers and classmates with my excellent performance, and was rated as a "civilized middle school student." Below, I will introduce my learning experience to everyone, hoping to give everyone a reference.

I believe that to be a civilized middle school student, you must first have a strong learning foundation. This requires us to have a hard-working spirit, to be diligent and enterprising, and not to regard learning as a chore, but to treat it optimistically. As the saying goes, "The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold." "Listening carefully in class is also the key to learning. In class, I can always listen carefully and take notes carefully. If I study well in the forty-five minutes of class, I will no longer feel "too much" after class. Of course, I can’t relax in my review after class. When reviewing, I usually memorize the difficult stuff first and then the easy ones, and carefully review the lessons I learned that day, so that I don’t have to fight against the odds when it comes to the exam. .

Of course, to be a civilized middle school student, you must also have good ideological quality. In my daily life, I ask myself to be willing to help others, neither humble nor arrogant, and be clear about love and hate. I always actively help the weak, and I resolutely stop bullying of the weak by the strong. In the "hand in hand, one by one" activity, I also helped my deskmate to improve his performance in the final exam. In this way, we can reflect the spirit of our new generation of middle school students!

Learning and moral character are important, but a strong skill is also indispensable. In addition to accepting classroom knowledge, I also develop my specialties appropriately. I do not regard learning these specialties as a burden, but as a kind of relaxation. No matter which specialty I choose, I like to persevere because I know that if I give up halfway, I won't be able to learn my specialty well, so I can keep practicing every time and have the perseverance to "move mountains"! Moreover, he is not timid when performing or competing. Because I am calm and composed before every competition, I can perfectly demonstrate the skills I have learned during the competition! After studying hard, I always like to sing and draw. I didn’t expect that after one semester, learning special skills actually improved my academic performance. Therefore, special skills are beneficial to learning without any harm.

Of course, I am not the best. There may be students off the court who are better than me.

I hope you will continue to work hard in the future, and I look forward to having you on the list of "Civilized Middle School Students" next semester!

(7) Integrity

Classmates, the title of my speech today is; "Integrity"

If there were no colorful sunshine in spring, there would be no butterflies flying all over the mountains; if there was no integrity in the world, it would be a A desolate and desolate world. Integrity, like a bright moon, once illuminated the earth, driving away the shadows of the world with its clear brilliance. She exuded brilliance, but she did not lose anything and was still so bright and bright. Treating people with integrity gives you sincerity and trust, and wins friendship and respect; integrity is like the fragrance of a bouquet of roses, which can touch the hearts of lovers. No matter how time and space change, it always shines with alluring light. With her, life has fragrance, with her, life has pursuit!

One day not long ago, I received a letter and a remittance of 50 yuan. It was sent by a former student. The letter said, "Teacher Li, thank you. Without you, I wouldn't be here today. That night, I actually asked three or four people to borrow money, but none of them lent it to me. , they don’t believe me, you are my last hope, if even you reject me, I will have no choice but to steal, I was forced to have no choice, but that day you not only lent me money, but also returned It was the first trust in my life that made me know the value of personality and gave me hope in life. Your trust was like a dawn, illuminating my dark heart. Later, I came to work in the city, and I began to be a down-to-earth person and work honestly. Although it was a little bit harder and a little tiring, I learned to treat others with sincerity, and at the same time, I gained respect from others. Trust, slowly I began to gain success, and slowly I realized the true meaning of life..."

I have read this letter no less than 10 times, and it makes me excited every time: I remember it was the year I just graduated, and there was a naughty guy in my class who bullied me as a new teacher all day long. They seemed to be against me, skipping classes, fighting, and smoking, which really made me rack my brains. However, in the second year, he dropped out of school for unknown reasons. Two years later, one night, late at night, I was preparing to take a rest. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, I saw a tall and fierce boy standing outside the door. He said, "Teacher Li, I want to You borrow 50 yuan, and I..." I remembered that it was the naughty boy from two years ago. We haven't seen each other for two years, and I almost don't recognize him anymore. I briefly asked him about his situation. He had nothing to do after he dropped out of school. He couldn't get around and had to rely on his family for food. So, I said to him: "You are so old. You should find something to do. You can't rely on your parents all your life. You should be independent. Learn a craft or find something to do. Don't wander around in the society doing nothing." "Actually, you are very smart. As long as you do something seriously, you will succeed." Then I handed him 50 yuan. I forgot about it after that. This time I received this unexpected letter. Although this 50 yuan was not a large amount, it touched the soul walking on the edge at that specific time and drove away evil thoughts. It is the sincerity and trust that I have given, like a bright moon, that illuminates a dark heart and makes me feel full of joy.

This year, I have been working for seven years. In these seven years, I deeply feel that as a teacher, where there is honesty, there will be bright spring, where there is trust, there will be success. Blooming flowers. As teachers, we should always examine ourselves, use broad and selfless love to shape students' beautiful hearts, and use honest and trustworthy life principles to build students' sound personalities. As a teacher, every time I face the eager eyes of students. I often ask myself, are you as keen as a detective to discover the strengths of students, as impartial as a judge to deal with classmates' disputes, as sincere as a wise man, to tolerate students' mistakes? Because we are young, we Students may be lost for a while. Have we used sincerity to make them get back on their feet? As teachers, our trust will lead to happier and happier students. As the old saying goes: "Giving someone a rose leaves a lingering fragrance in your hands."

Treating people with integrity is like the bright moon shining on the earth. It is integrity that makes darkness bright and the world beautiful. It is integrity that makes the world full of vitality and life full of vitality. Teachers, let us *** Let’s create a world of integrity, feel the happiness and beauty of life, and feel the tranquility and beauty of the world. Teachers and friends, may each of us have a bright moon of integrity in our hearts!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of ?(8)?Write every aspect of life well. A Stroke

Dear teachers and classmates, hello everyone, the title of my speech today is - Write every stroke of life well.

At dawn in the east, the five-star red flag bathed in the glory of the sun once again unveiled the mysterious veil of the earth. At this moment, waves of excitement surged in our chests. As the young generation of the great motherland, what should we do? Woolen cloth?

I remember that Clinton’s mother always warned him: “Never say you can’t do it.” Putting aside the absurd motivation of rising hegemonism. This sentence is blameless.

This incomprehensible mother in China has left traces of blood on her journey. It is an indisputable fact that she was once devastated. Doesn’t this moment remind us of the brutal ravages suffered by foreign enemies’ cavalry? Can his rickety back remind us of the angry pen that supported the backbone of China in the days of blood and tears? “China is no longer a country that can be conquered with just a few cannons at its doorstep,” “We have been poor for a century and a half, and it’s time to get rich!” Don’t these proverbs echo in our hearts all the time?

Zhu Yanfu only has a body of three feet, and his tens of thousands of words "Life with Limits" expresses the true meaning of life in his heart. Why can he do it? Xu Xinghu and Zhu Ying went in and out of their frontier positions under the devil's tongue of fire, and finally delivered their loyal souls scattered in Yugoslavia to the motherland. Why could they do it? They have such vivid deeds precisely because their hearts are filled with ardent love for life, career, and the motherland. In modern society, they are keen on hedonistic life, devoted to bubble life, and are groggy and depressed all day long. Can the dying person not be ashamed of it?

There is a saying in "Forrest Gump": "Life is like a piece of sandwich chocolate, you will never know what kind of heart is inside." Indeed, life is like a mine, "Everyone has "It can be said that Yao and Shun" are the best interpretations of it. The long road of life is just the process of hard exploration of mineral veins. The difficulty can be imagined. It requires certain opportunities, but I want to say "Opportunities only favor those who are prepared." ”, remember that “diligence is always more reliable than chance”.

This life is accompanied by many opportunities, each of which is an important stroke of our life. Failure is not terrible. What shines like gold is not the golden cup in your hand. But the tortuous road of progress. Everyone hopes that there will be fewer failures and more impressive achievements on their own path. "But before you learn to make progress, you must first learn to wrestle. The most important thing is to learn to wrestle." Xian Zhe's words once again mapped the direction of progress.

It’s time for the hurricane of the final exam to test those of us. Although we don’t want to prove anything, what we step on is an unyielding soil, which gives us strong arms and allows us to Let’s build our life building ourselves!

Never say you can’t do it!

(9) Reading accompanies my growth< /p>

When you need help, books will lend a helping hand; when you feel pain, books will heal your wounds; when you are lost on the thorny road of life, books will be like A lighthouse, pointing the way for you..." This is a passage I wrote in my reading notes, because I deeply love reading.

However, not everyone is born to like reading. When I was in elementary school, I had the most trouble reading. Every time I picked up a book and looked at the lifeless square characters, I always yelled that it was boring. How did I fall in love with reading? Speaking of Chinese pre-class activities...

It was in the fifth grade of elementary school. There was an idiom solitaire game in a Chinese pre-class activity, and each student had to answer an idiom in turn. "Thousands of troops"... The students passed the test smoothly one by one. It was my turn, but my mind was buzzing. The students looked at me anxiously, and the students behind were so anxious. Stomping his feet, "Ma, Ma Daha!" "Somehow, I blurted out all of a sudden. It wasn't until my classmates burst into laughter that I realized that I had made a big joke. I was so embarrassed and annoyed that I wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in. The teacher came over and patted me. My head said, "It doesn't matter. I should pay attention to reading more books in the future to accumulate knowledge!" "So, I secretly made up my mind to read more and learn a lot more knowledge.

Gradually, I really fell in love with reading, because books brought me endless fun. I once prayed for the fate of the little match seller, shed tears for the tragic sacrifice of the five heroes of Langya Mountain, and admired Zhuge Liang's talent... I was deeply intoxicated in the ocean of books.

It was a late autumn evening, and I got a bad grade in a midterm exam.

After school, I returned home full of pain and despair. Through blurred tears and dim light, I saw the book "How Steel Was Tempered" on the bookshelf. After reading it, I realized that the protagonist kept Your tenacious fighting spirit of not surrendering to fate inspired my courage and injected a huge force into my body. Yes, will you be devastated if you encounter such a small setback? I reopened the test paper, carefully analyzed the mistakes in it, and made a study plan for myself in the future. I said to myself: "I must be like Paul and be a strong person in life!" Finally, at the end of the period, I Won first place in the exam. This is all the wisdom and strength that reading has given me!

Reading gives me knowledge, reading gives me fun, and reading gives me strength. I grow up while reading!

You can choose whatever you want...
