dear teacher and classmates:

　　i am very glad to make a speech here in this class again! this time, i'd like to talk something about english.

　　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.

　　i am chinese

　　ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,

　　i am chinese. i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i've learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i've learned about zhang heng(張衡)and i've learned about zheng he(鄭和).who says the yellow river civilization has vanished(消失)?i know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇跡)on this fertile land and we're still making miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders (掠奪) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
