Ladies and Gentlemen: My topic is Honesty.

As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story. /chuzhong/chusan/

65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure.

In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had to leave. On his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one of the teeth from the dragon’s mouth.

He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his conscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 2002, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome.

When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error.

Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.

Thank you.

my life in this school

Ladies and gentlemen,

For lives in schoolyards, I think:That's the studying place we're most familiar with。Some people say:studying is the very and most boring thing，and I have even include the life in school。But I think studying is a very joyous thing，life in school is very interesting，it forms a picture of life，made my road of life be filled with happiness and enrichment。my life in school is like a slowly flowing stream，it flows happily，with occasions of small waves。Lift your head up, it's spring，bow your head down, it's fall，the full moon as a picture，the crescent as a poem。my life in school lived in the silence of time.

It's morning，with the cool winds accompanying me，small groups of students arrived at class。In the morning reading class，everyone opened up their books，Together they read the textbook entries aloud，sometimes their would be some students that does not read aloud，but under the teachers governance，everyone all read aloud，it became a unmissable schoolyard orchestra in the schoolyard。A bran new day at school just begun。 Every-time we saw the teacher's professional figure，our hearts would go with the teacher into the sea of knowledge，to feel the

traditions of other countries，to feel the fresh sunshine in another world、the feel the world's brightness。

Breaks are relaxing，in the hallways，some students are talking，some students are looking at the sceneries，relaxing their weary minds。In the classrooms，some students are reading story books，some students are doing homework，and some students are making preparation for next class??

The favorite class of students would be Physical Education。in Physical Education，they can run freely，enjoying the sun's shines，making themselves sweaty。See，the students are playing basketball over on that field，they are playing badminton，and they are playing ping-pong in the court on the east side of the area......

Near dawn，students all anxious to get home with their

textbooks，they talk and laugh，feeling happy for another joyful day。

My life in school is very sweet。Because in there there are familiar faces；sweet laughters；sentences wishing me good luck。In our days of succession，we scream for joy，we share the goodness of succession；make music using notes that touch our hearts。In our days of failure，we courage each other on，work together。At the same time，I want to thank my teachers，“The

end of the sky and earth can be broken，but only the heart for the teacher cannot be forgotten。”Every time that I was down，sad because of the failed test，my teacher would be like a bright light guiding my lost soul，teaching me、allowing me to be a strong man，because succession only belongs to the leaders of life。

Life in the schoolyard is very tensing, busy, and hard-working, but it's also very sweetening, joyous, and colorful. I love my life in this school.

My“Teacher”

Ladies and gentlemen,

I have had a lot of teachers in my school who have given me much help in my study. For their help I will never forget them. But today I am going to talk about a special teacher of mine. This teacher is not a human being and its name is“Computer”. It has been teaching me a lot of knowledge and I appreciate it very much.

With the development of modern science and technology, computers are widely used in every teritories [every field](1) including education. How can a computer be my teacher? How does a computer teach me? Multimedia(多媒体)helps a lot in this aspect in recent years, and computer-based training (CBT) has become a popular educational medium (手段). Even before the multimedia come [came](2) up, many different learning systems appeared, using the components and techniques we now associate with the term “multimedia”. Multimedia components, such as graphics (动画) , animations , sound and video, make the learning process easier through visualization. Animations can present many complex subjects dynamically, but human teachers can not do this on blackboards. Multimedia makes our study more lively and interesting. For example, a CD-ROM disk named “Encarta Encyclopedia” contains 650 MB information including images,

graphics, music clips, video clips, animations , texts, hotwords, and database search functions. Fields involved includes physical sciences, performance arts, social sciences, politics, military, education and so on. When pressing a button, I can hear American President Clinton's speech clip. I may enjoy playing all kinds of musical instruments in the world. I can also see the animation of many physical phenomena. This makes physical concept to be understood deeply [ concepts understood better](3). The audio features of multimedia can greatly help me learning [learn] (4) foreign languages. With its speech output capabilities, I'm no longer dependent on an instructor for proper pronunciation.

How can I interact with a computer? There are many ways, including keyboard, mouse pointer, and touch screen. I often use a keyboard. When I press right keys, I can see and hear whatever I want. Information world is at my fingertip. I wish that true speech input-output system would be invented one day.

As teachers, computers have a lot of virtues： They are positive, they have good memories and never lose any information stored in them. They have much knowledge in every field. They can let out all kinds of sounds, and can also improve the efficiency of our study. For example, if I want to, I can skip some chapters so that I can study at my own pace.

Although computers will never take the place of human teachers, they are welcomed by more and more learners. Computers will continue to evolve(发展)with the aid of modern technologies. Computers are so powerful, helpful and important that everybody needs it,

especially in the future! I love my computer teacher! Thank you.

评语 本文曾获得北京电视台、国家教育部举办的 My teacher 英语演讲比赛优胜奖。在以“我的老师”为主题的演讲会上，这篇演讲出人意料地将计算机称作自己的老师，以吸引听众的注意。然后又用事实与推理证明计算机确实是一个“老师”，从而赢得了听众的共鸣。某些语言上的不足之处点评修改如下：

(1)在every后，territory用复数，显然是错误的。另外，表示“各个领域”，用field为好。

(2)原文时态用错了。

(3)concept是可数名词。make后的宾语补语如果是不定式的话，要省略to。另外，一般不用被动不定式，而只用过去分词。deeply也有中国式英语之嫌。

(4)help sb. (to)do，不用 doing。
