I love English. English language is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. Learning English makes me confident and brings me GREat pleasure.
When I was seven, my mother sent me to an English school. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, because the president Washington is my idol. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the GREat Wall, the Forbidden City and Anshan.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well.
If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too.

Every one has his own dream.When I was a little kid ,my dream was even to have a candy shop of my own .But now ,when I am 16 years old ,standing here ,my dreams have already changed a lot.
I have got quite different experience from other girls.While they were playing toys at home,while they were dreaming to be the princesses in the story .I was running in the hard rain,jumping in the heavy snow,pitching in the strong wind.Nothing could stop me ,because of a wonderful call from my heart -- to be an athlete.Yeah ,of course ,I'm an athlete,I'm so proud of that all the time .
When I was 10 years old ,I became a shot-put athlete.The training was really hard ,I couldn't bear the heavy shot in my hands .But I always believe that "god only help those who help themselves".During those hard days,I find I was growing more quickly than others of the same age.To be an athlete is my most correct choice.But,I quit my team after entering high school because of a silly excuse.I really didn't want to stop my sports career anyway.
Today I say to you my friends that even though I must face the difficulties of yesterday ,today and tomorrow .I still have a dream .It is a dream deeply rooted in my soul.
I have a dream that one day ,I can run,jump and pitch just like I used to be.
I have a dream that one day , I can go back to my dream sports and join the national team.
I have a dream that one day ,I can stand on the highest place at the olympic games.With all the cameras pointing at me.I will tell everyone that I'm so proud to be a Chinese athlete!
This is my hope .This is the faith that I continue my steps with!!!
With this faith ,I will live though the strong wind and heavy rain ,never give up !
So let victory ring from my heart,from all of you.When we allow victory to ring .I must be the one!
In my imagination,I'm a bird ,a magical bird.I carry my dreams all with me by my big wings. I fly though the mountains ,though the forests ,over the sea,to the sun ,the warmest place in the aerospace!

This short dialogue also reveals a profound truth: between individuals and others to support each other the only support from the team or others will have infinite strength. If without the support of others to you there is no group of policy strength of each member of the team we will not be able to overcome the heavy obstacles through behing XianGuan.

I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! To begin with，I want to ask a question everybody dream a good dream last night? Actually，today I want to talk about dream with you. Of course， What I want to talk isnot a dream you have last night，but a dream—— about life. Everyone has dreams about life， different dreams at different lifestage，and we need dreams to support us. Dreams are like the stars we never reachin the sky，but like most mariners(水手)，we can chart our course by them. With thedream，we have a direction，with a direction， we were no longer the dream， thereis hope，With hope， we have the strength to fight. I have a dream： To be a doctor.，because doctor may relieve the pain ofpatients. May let the human change the health. At
the same time， I believedthat， those who help others may be able to obtain joyfully. Therefore， I hopedin the near future ，I might be a doctor. But I know，life is tough，and there are always ups and downs， maybe we failin the way to our aims，and we may feel depressed ，whenever at this time， thedream in our heart can always comfort us， encourage us ，and support us to moveahead .
Young!Fortunately， I am young now. Just due to it， I know that nothing isimpossible.I firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. If I can't realizemy dream，it result from that I haven't work harder enough and I won't find otherexcuses. If no people believe you， you can make it to prove that you are right.If you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here， you canbecome the god and create the truth. "My breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow， my sword isfamous in Kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains." At some time inthe past I also had am bitious words and I had some achievements. Eachachievement results from my hard work. I always believe that "If you want tohave more achievements than others， you must work harder." In some extent， thedream is the hope. If you can insist on doing something， the victory willcome.
Hold fast to dreams， for if dreams die， life is a broken-winged bird thatcannot fly. Hold fast to dreams， for when dreams go， life is a barren fieldfrozen with snow. So my dear friends， think of your old and maybe dead dreams.Whatever it is， pick it up and make it alive from today. Let's--- move----out! Thank you for your listening!

The epic life opened a new chapter.
Growing, when we began to pure self-integration into the alien society, growing pains and pressures will not become free in early. And our lives in the constant subject of annoyance to overcome and resolve in one day change the world, the growth of stereotypes.
Growth, the most desire is that with people, the most trouble is to get along with others. When I entered this class, an unfamiliar environment for I am depressed, terrified. And High, in my doubt came to me ... ...
Many nights, I dreamed of and one of the students had a wonderful time spent together. More thoughts, the more his heart is closer lock. Thus, isolation and loneliness, like a thief just like the volatility. To get up that morning, the dizziness. Roommate to see me look bad, with concern, said: "Never, right?" I shook his head, they see nothing, I said, no longer speak. But I can see their eyes for a long time in good faith and fraternity. Later, the headache was not a person to leave the teacher, went to the clinic, the doctor said that in a cold,吊针fight. Looked at the syrup bottle in a drop into the my body, I feel very sad.
Looking at the road outside the yellow lights, helplessness and loneliness of the body I occupy. Suddenly recall a time when illness, friends of the deep feeling anxious face, and concern about the words, but it all seems more and more distant from me, and all are increasingly blurred.
I do not know how long after, a sudden I can not help but the wind caught pitched battle. Then, I see a Blur full Zhang's face, that they, my friends room. They seem to have the face of the winds because the wind has become clear, Smart.

Now, I found their advantages: some humorous, some wisdom, it was moderate, it was good, but more importantly, I found that this new focus in the same unity, and fraternity.
Now I'm re-learned how to exchange, learn how to communicate, more importantly, learned how to grow.
Met with high non-butterfly wings, butterfly seen just dance, but we can not ex Meiyan forget the origin of the butterfly. The suffering there is no hard and painful struggle and waiting, how can a shell at the time of amazing wings?
Growth is the pain in the United States, but also the well-being.

The king wasvery old. Before he dead, he told the prince his last words,” I am very old now. The forest is our last hope. You willbe the new king. You couldn’t change the law, or a lot of monsters will come! Rememberit my son!”
And shortlyafterwards, the prince became the new king. And the country became stronger andstronger. He was a good king but he still grudged that law!
Oneday, a guest came to the kingdom. He showed the king
a drawing.There were houses and buildings on the picture. The king was vey excited. Andhe decided to listen to that man. He commanded to cut down all the trees. Andhe created a new world! Everyone tried to stop him, but it didn’t work.
Trees werecutting down, animals were running away. Tall buildings were built! At thebeginning, people liked the new city,but later something bad happened.

Good afternoon ，ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! my topic isOpportunities and Challenges.
First， I would like to know， what does your destiny offer you? Happiness，wisdom， a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question topresident Nixon， he would probably had said，”Our destiny offers not the cup ofdespair，but the chalice of opportunity.”
Needless to say. Till now， we have used two sevenths of the preparationtime. How much changes have you seen? New roads， new subway lines，public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors， large blocks of grassfields， and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction. Other than those， there are even more good effects brought to us by
theOlympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example， more and more peoplewill get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attractthem strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment，for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness ofenvironmental protection is being strengthened. What is more， Olympic Games givea unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youthwith the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so manyadvances， could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyoneshould use some time to think of this question， ”Does the Olympic Games have anyspecial meaning to you?”
For us， I mean the Chinese youth. Because what we are waiting for is to dosomething significant as repaying the love given to us society is just like aship， and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Comehere and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is， but we have never heard ofit in our true life. This morning， however， when we wake up， we will see theOlympic Games waving its hand. After chewing， most of us will have at least oneplan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter”----that is someone who will give comfort to others. At the end of my speech， I hope all the preparation will go well， andeveryone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities andgive a big smile to challenges.

曾经，你是一棵嫩绿的芽儿，大树为你遮阴挡雨，微风为你送来清凉，然而，沐浴在老师智慧的阳光里，茁壮成长在老师知识的土地上，你们的.生活才慢慢变得缤纷、绚丽。
是老师渊博的知识，让同学们们感受文明与希望;是老师宽广的胸怀，让大家懂得宽容与忍让;是老师慈善的目光，让你们由懦弱变得坚强。当同学们遇到挫折灰心丧气时，是老师在你们心田播种希望;当你们取得成功一帆风顺时，是老师及时开出“骄兵必败”的良方。老师总是笑语盈盈，让大家充满力量。即使偶尔愠怒的目光，也让你们感到亲切与盼望。
老师是多么伟大。有人把老师比做水，说她滋润了一片幼苗;有人把老师比做蜡烛，说她燃烧了自己照亮了别人;还有人把老师比做辛勤的园丁，说她用毕生的心血精心得浇灌着你们这些祖国的花朵。日升日落，老师挥洒着血汗，寒冬酷暑，老师永远满腔热情，指引着你们不断前进。在将来，无论你会成为挺拔的乔木，还是低矮的灌木，都将会用生命的全部向老师致敬。在此，对于那些不尊重老师的学生，你们应当反省一下自己，应当给老师送上最虔诚的祝福与最真挚的谢意。

recently,the news that u.s attack on china's internet is always exposed.and the question of how to stay online safely raises a lot of discussion in our country.as 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 information.not only do we not offer them at random in some strange websites,but we need to distinguish right from wrong among the numerous websites.furthermore,it is inevitable that some secure anti-virus soft wares can be installed.and it will make it possible for that network can run more steadily.in addition to doing some work by ourselves,the government needs to draw up some policies to preserve national cyber security.it 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 security.however,consciousness of cyber security should not decline.only in this way,we just enjoy the convenience brought by the network.

A man went to an insurance office to have his life insured. The manager of the office asked him how old his parents were when they died.
“Mother had a bad heart and died at the age of thirty. Father died of tuberculosis when he was thirty-five.”
“I am very sorry,”said the manager,“we cannot insure your life as your parents were not healthy.”
As the man was leaving the office, depressed, he met a clerk, who had overheard the conversation.
“You must not be so frank and tell the truth,”said the clerk,“no office will insure you if you speak like that. Use your imagination a little.”
The man went to another office and was shown into the manager's room.
“Well, young man, how old were your parents when they died?”
“Mother was ninety-three, and she died from a fall off her bicycle. Father was ninety-eight and he died while he was playing football.”
