prepared speech
good morning, ladies and gentlemen. at present, my fellow students and i have before us great personal and educational opportunities. at the same time, we are running into a variety of challenges.
today's college education provides us with opportunities for bringing out the creativity and talent that we have within us. this is nurtured both by our learned professors, and by the growing dimension of knowledge sources, such as the world wide web and multimedia sources. our educational experience is being transformed both within and beyond the traditional classroom. however, challenges still exist.
at the end of every semester, students in my university are required to fill out a questionnaire as a review of the previous semester. the questions usually cover a broad range of college life, from curriculum adjustment to canteen service. and almost every time, the questionnaire includes one essential question, that is: as a college student, what are your major challenges? and almost every answer includes two aspects: studying and professional. these two challenges will remain our preoccupations as long as we live in such a competitive world.
a series of challenges in our studies start from almost the beginning of our freshman year. we may wonder whether we've chosen the right major. we may wonder if the extracurricular activities add credits to our studies. we may work our heads off to get a glorious a, because b is already mediocre and c is almost unacceptable. later on we may be competing with our hardworking, intelligent peers, including our best friends to get into an ideal graduate school. all of these sound so familiar and they have somehow made our college education so goal-obsessed that we sometimes fail to fully enjoy our educational experience.
apart from challenges in learning, there are also professional challenges. the competitive world today has also brought about the1
"knowledge economy," which requires the effective use of knowledge for economic and social development, and also requires skilled and multi-oriented students with a marketable vocational sense. therefore, sophisticated calculations upon the value of a university degree are being made. graduate employability statistics are being scrutinized. programs like resume writing and interview skills are seen as a must. again as i've said above, when professional concern dominates our college education, we may lose the essence of our educational experience.
indeed, facing these two challenges, how can students manage to be what the employers seek and at the same time to enjoy a valuable, insightful and rewarding educational experience?
for me, the solution to the problem lies in what can be called an "educational synthesis". i remember attending a lecture by professor tu weiming, director of harvard yenching institute. in his lecture, professor tu argued that the ideal state of college education is to arrive at a synthesis, a combination of specific knowledge, humanistic insight and sense of social responsibility.
admittedly, there is much to do to bridge the gap between our educational experience in college and the social employment in society. "educational synthesis" can help us narrow the gap. fortunately, today's college education provides us with such a diverse world. from this diverse world we may choose what we want to form our own educational es and gentlemen, as charles dickens once commented upon the time of the french revolution, "it was the best of times; it was the worst of times." and i'm afraid so it is with our time.
i believe, once we achieve our own educational synthesis, we will be able to transform our challenges into opportunities. we will be able to see the best time of our life. and more importantly, we will be able to see the best time of our nation. thank you.

sports brings us together
sports are more than competitions. to me, they mean growth under the care of others. i learned this the hard way.
i used to be very shy and often felt lonely. although i did well in all the academic subjects, i was afraid of physical education. my classmates often laughed at me.
“look at that girl,” they said. “her feet don’t leave the ground when she runs!”
their words embarrassed me. moreover, whenever the teacher organized some competitive games, no one in the class liked to have me as their partner or team member. as a result, i often ended up looking at others enjoy their games.
things would go on like that if not for a sports meet in my high school. by mistake, my name was put on the list of those who would compete in the women’s 1500 meters race. by the time people found the mistake, it was too late to change.
my desk-mate was a natural athlete. she said to me, “i couldn’t run that race in your place, because i’ve signed up for three items already.” other athletic girls of the class said the same.
i was utterly dumbfounded. 1500 meters! running against the best runners from other classes! and in front of students of the entire school! it would be the worst nightmare i’d ever have!
“you still have time to catch up because there is still one month before the sports meet,” they all said this to me, including my desk-mate patted me on the shoulder, “cool! you will run for our class! and we will do training together.” yes, this is not just for myself, but for my class too, i said to myself. but still, 1500 meters to me was like mount everest to a beginning climber. i had no idea even how to start my preparation.
fortunately, my desk-mate gave me a hand. every afternoon after class, several of us ran together. when the fear of being laughed at struck me, i saw others running right beside me. they gave me strengths. while we were running, some others would stand by the tracks cheering for month certainly couldn’t make me a good runner. but when i was standing behind the start line, i no longer felt lonely or afraid. i saw my classmates standing by the tracks waving at me as if about to run beside me.
with the shot of the starting gun, i dashed out and ran as fast as i could, as if it were a 200-meter race. soon i was out of breath and slowed down. other runners passed me one by one, and gradually i had no idea how many of them were still behind me. my legs were getting heavier and heavier, and i might fall down at any moment. however, i suddenly heard my
classmates chanting my name. my desk-mate even ran along the tracks beside me and cheered for me at the same time, just like the month-long training we did together.
as expected, i was almost the last to cross the finish line.
(请关注：)immediately, my classmates held my arms and urged me to walk on my feet and not to sit down. i was surrounded, with all kinds of drinks handed to me. i felt a kind of warmth i had never felt before. even though i was almost the last to finish the race, i was full of confidence that i would improve in the future.
that sports meet was an unforgettable experience. the memory of my classmates cheering for me, holding my arms and handing me drinks stays fresh on my mind. sports are no longer about winning or losing. they give me a lot of confidence, both confidence in my fellow students and
confidence in my own potential. i am no longer lonely, no longer afraid. sports have brought me close to my classmates and helped us grow , i participate in the sports meet every year. even if i am not competing, i would help my classmates with their practice, just like the way my desk-mate and others ran with me.

2014枫叶杯初赛试题原稿
recently, the liberal education project at zhongshan university has attracted great attention. the 35 freshmen taking part in this project will follow a general curriculum providing broad learning in multiple disciplines rather than the usual in depth study of one particular major. they may benefit a great deal by broadening their knowledge, but will they lose out when it comes to job hunting in four years’ time? give your opinion about this liberal education project.
honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen! i’m happy to have the chance to speak here. i would like to share my opinion with you on the topic “the liberal education project at zhongshan university.”
recently, this liberal education project has attracted great attention all over china. some people believe the project will benefit the students involved greatly. however, others raise their eyebrows because they fear that the students will lose out in the job market. in my opinion, this project should be regarded as a blessing rather than a curse. there are tow arguments i would like to make to support my point of view.
firstly, attending the project, the students lay a solid foundation for their further study and research. as the chinese saying goes “there is no separation among liberal arts, history and philosophy.” only when students comprehensively study all three subjects, could they obtain a solid foundation for their future accomplishments in the study of human science. i remember, one of my friends majored in liberal arts and minored in history as an undergraduate student. however, after four year’s study, he found he was especially interested in medieval history, which he specialized in later for his master’s degree. recently, he confided to me that he feels he is at a disadvantage in pursuing his further studies because he has not studied philosophy as an undergraduate student and philosophy, particularly historical materialism is one of the key tools for analyzing past events. therefore i believe, as dose he, that if he had taken part in this project, he would have benefited enormously.
secondly, the project provides the students with an edge for competing in the job market. nowadays, to be recruited by a well-known company, university students have to pass many rounds of tests and interviews, which aim at testing students’ all-round abilities. therefore, i firmly believe, the students, who have extensively studied liberal arts, history and philosophy, will stand out in the tests and attract the attention of any employer. in the modern world, companies need their employees to be versatile, to keep pace with the rapid change of business. so, with their interdisciplinary educational background, the graduates from the project will soon become extremely competent employees capable of tackling any issue that may occur in their future career.
in conclusion, i would say, taking part in the project will provide the students with a better academic life and career prospects. it is my belief that we should view the project as a beneficial and encouraging educational reform.
thank you for your time.

china’s greatest contribution to global harmony and prosperity over the next 25
years
honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen, it is my great pleasure to speak here today. i would like to share my opinion with you on the topic china’s greatest contribution to global economy and harmony over the next 25 years.
when i saw this topic for the first time, one thing flashed into my mind was a song called “chinese language” which is sung by a famous female band and in this song, there is one sentence in its lyrics, like, “all the world is leaning chinese”. therefore i want to say, the essence of china’s long history, chinese culture will exert a very influential effect to global harmony and prosperity over the next 25 years. i would like to divide chinese culture into three levels, chinese language, chinese educational theory and chinese traditions.
firstly, chinese language will contribute enormously to the prosperity of the world’s economy. a few months ago, i went to beijing with my girlfriend to have a sightseeing there. in the airplane flying to beijing, i encountered a foreign student from germany and he studied chinese as a postgraduate student in dalian northeast financial and economic university. we talked a lot, in chinese, related to her life in dalian, her major and even chinese phonetic symbols. when i asked her why did you decide to study chinese in this country, she told me that when she was an undergraduate student, her major was international trade and because china had become a big economy in the world, it would be very important to learn chinese to be a businessperson in the future. therefore, i believe, due to china’s economic status in the world, chinese language would become a very important factor for the world’s economic prosperity.
secondly, chinese educational theory is one of the most effective means to create harmonious relationship between human beings. china has a very long history and china’s educational theory has benefited chinese people enormously. i would like to take confucius as an example. confucius emphasized a lot on the harmonious relations between people. he even thought the relationship between teachers and students should be as good as the relationship between father and son. therefore, even many years after he died, his students still compiled “lunyu” the most famous book derived from confucius’ quotations. so i would say if china’s educational theory could be accepted by the world, it will benefited the world’s harmonious relationship between human beings greatly
thirdly, chinese tradition will provide an extremely positive effect to form a harmonious character of human beings. i would like to take myself as an example. when i was yang, i did not have a pretty handwriting and i often lost temper to my friends. so, my parent decided to let me study calligraphy. in the first few days, i experienced a lot of failures and committed some mistakes. however, i gradually learnt to be patient and my handwriting also became better. therefore, i would say if chinese tradition could be accepted by the world gradually, it will benefit the world
greatly for forming human being’s sound and harmonious character.
in conclusion, china’s culture, especially chinese language, chinese educational theory and chinese tradition, will contribute greatly to the world’s prosperity and harmony.
thank you for your time.

第一部分：即兴演讲。上场前30分钟现场抽提，30分钟准备后上台演讲（3-4分钟）。
题目：
will chinese people’s increase of living standards contribute to the establishment of a bridge between west and east?
中国人民生活水平的提高是否有利于在东西方之间构建起一座桥梁？
演讲内容（语法及词汇错误已修订）：
honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen! i am happy to have the chance to speak here. today, i would like to share my opinion with you on the topic “will chinese people’s increase of living standards promote the establishment of a bridge between the west and east?”
尊敬的评委，女士们先生们！很高兴能有机会在这里进行演讲，今天，我想就“中国人民生活水平的提高是否有利于在东西方之间构建起一座桥梁？”这一主题，与大家分享我的观点。
when i saw this topic for the first time, one thing that flashed in my mind is the fact that many confucius institutions have been opened up all around the world. therefore i firmly believe that the increase of chinese people’s financial well-being will contribute a lot to the establishment of the bridge between the west and east. there are three arguments i would like to make to support my point of view.
当我第一眼看到这个题目的时候，首先在我脑海里浮现的情景是：中国已经在世界各地建立起了许多孔子学院。因此我坚信，中国人民生活水平的提高非常有利于在东西方之间构建起一座桥梁。我想从三个方面进行论述，以支持我的观点。
firstly, i would like to say, the increasing of chinese people’s financial well-being will give an opportunity to the people from the west and east to communicate with each other. i would like to take myself as an example. when i graduated from my university, i met a foreigner as a foreign teacher in a school and from that time on, we become very good friends. and even now, he has already come back to his native country. we still keep touch with each other and the way for us to keep touch is by phone. so, i would like to say, if there were no increasing of chinese people’s financial well-being, i would have no chance to talk to such a person and have such a good friend.
首先，我想说，中国人民生活水平的提高为东西方人民的相互沟通提供了一个机会。我想以我自己为例来进行说明。当我大学毕业的时候，我结识了一位在学校教书的外教。从那时起，我们成为了要好的朋友。时至今天，虽然他已经返回本国，我们仍然保持着联系，而我们保持联系的方式就是电话沟通。因此，我想说，如果中国人民的生活水平没有提高，我也就不会有机会与他沟通，也就没有机会与他成为非常好朋友。
and secondly, i want to say, with the development of chinese people’s financial well-being, the culture of the two countries of the west and east will communicate a lot. like i said, these days, a lot of confucius institutions have been opened up all around the world and a lot of foreigners want to learn chinese. i knew a foreigner when, a few days ago, i came to beijing with my girl friend to have a tour. and that foreigner was a student in one of dalian’s universities to learn chinese. his chinese was really fantastic. the reason why he wanted to spend a lot of time in studying chinese is because he thinks in the future chinese people will be more wealthy and there would be a very good chance for him to earn money from china. and therefore i would say the increasing of chinese people’s financial well-being indeed gives an edge for chinese people to exchange cultures with other people from other countries.
其次，我想说，随着中国人民生活水平的提高，东西方两国的文化进行了良好的交流。正如我所说的，近些年中国已在世界各地建立起了许多孔子学院，有许多外国人学习中国文化。几天前，我和女友去北京旅游的时候结识了一位外国朋友。这位外国朋友是在大连一所大学学习汉语的留学生。他的汉语非常的流利。他之所以想要花费大量的时间学习中文，是因为他认为，将来中国人民将会更加富裕，而对于他来说，想从中国赚钱，这是一个非常好的机会。因此，我想说中国人民生活水平的提高为中国人民与世界其他国家的人民进行交流提供了优势。
and thirdly, i want to say, with the increasing of chinese people’s status, chinese government has to communicate with the outside world to buy things to meet the need of chinese people, such as airplane. with the development of chinese economy, more and more people are rich and have the ability to go to someplace by plane and chinese government have to contact the american government to get the support of its factory to get planes.
再次，我想说随着中国人民生活水平的提高，中国政府必须与其他国家进行沟通，以购买产品，比如飞机，来满足中国人民的需求。随着中国经济的发展，越来越多的人们变得富有，因而由能力乘坐飞机旅行，为此中国政府必须与美国政府进行沟通，以获得美国飞机制造厂的支持来购买飞机。
so, in conclusion, i would say, the increase of chinese people’s financial status will increase the opportunity for the exchange between people, the culture and the relationship between the governments.
总之，我想说中国人民生活水平的提高，将会增强政府间的关系，也会增加人们之间进行交流的机会和文化之间进行交流的机会。
thank you!
谢谢！
第二部分：现场提问。台下评委根据演讲内容进行现场提问（一分钟）。
judge：your arguments are interesting. however i would like to ask you to extend it a little. how would you better balance the income levels within china?
评委：你的论点非常有意思。但是我想让你对它进行一点扩展。你如何平衡在中国存在的收入等级之间的差距？
contestant：i beg your pardon?
选手：请您再说一遍？
judge：how would you balance or distribute the income between chinese people? 评委：你如何平衡或者说分配不同中国人之间的收入差距？
contestant：you mean some chinese people are rich and (judge：very rich) some chinese people are poor (judge：very poor).
选手：你是说有些中国人很富有（评委：非常富有）而有些中国人很穷（评委：非常穷）。
judge：how would you make that more equal?
评委：你怎么来对它进行平衡呢？
contestant：
选手：
thanks for your question.
感谢您的问题。
i think this is a reality for all of the societies in the world. and one thing i think chinese people should do is chinese government should play a role to promote the people in the poor condition to have more chances to have a good job.
我想这是一个任何国家都需要面对的现实。我认为中国人民首先要做的就是，中国政府应当发挥作用，让处于贫苦条件的人们有机会获得好的工作。
and secondly, the chinese government should also pay more money to establish more educational institutions to educate the people who would not have too much knowledge to learn new things to have more opportunities to find a good job.
其次，中国政府应加大投资以兴建更多的教育机构，以使那些没有受过良好教育的人们去学习新的技能以获得机会找到好的工作。
and thirdly, i also want to say, chinese government should also use its tax method to levy more tax on the richer generation or the richer level to make the poor level have more money.
再次，我还想说，中国政府应当使用它的税收政策，对富有的一代或富有的阶层征收更多的税款，而使贫穷的阶层有更多的收入。
that is my answer.
这就是我的答案。
