經典英語演講小短文 篇一

In the summer recess between freshman and sophomore years in college, I wasinvited to be an instructor at a high school leadership camp hosted by a collegein Michigan. I was already highly involved in most campus activities, and Ijumped at the opportunity.

About an hour into the first day of camp, amid the frenzy of icebreakersand forced interactions, I first noticed the boy under the tree. He was smalland skinny, and his obvious discomfort and shyness made him appear frail andfragile. Only 50 feet away, 200 eager campers were bumping bodies, playing,joking and meeting each other, but the boy under the tree seemed to want to beanywhere other than where he was. The desperate loneliness he radiated almoststopped me from approaching him, but I remembered the instructions from thesenior staff to stay alert for campers who might feel left out.

As I walked toward him I said, “Hi, my name is Kevin and I’m one of thecounselors. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”

In a shaky, sheepish voice he reluctantly answered, “Okay, I guess.”

I calmly asked him if he wanted to join the activities and meet some newpeople. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”

I could sense that he was in a new world, that this whole experience wasforeign to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn’t be right to push him, either. Hedidn’t need a pep talk, he needed a friend. After several silent moments, myfirst interaction with the boy under the tree was over.

At lunch the next day, I found myself leading camp songs at the top of mylungs for 200 of my new friends. The campers were eagerly participated. My gazewandered over the mass of noise and movement and was caught by the image of theboy from under the tree, sitting alone, staring out the window. I nearly forgotthe words to the song I was supposed to be leading. At my first opportunity, Itried again, with the same questions as before: “How are you doing? Are youokay?”

To which he again replied, “Yeah, I’m all right. I just don’t really getinto this stuff. ”

As I left the cafeteria, I too realized this was going to take more timeand effort than I had thought — if it was even possible to get through to him atall.

That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my concerns about himknown. I explained to my fellow staff members my impression of him and askedthem to pay special attention and spend time with him when they could.

The days I spend at camp each year fly by faster than any others I haveknown. Thus, before I knew it, mid-week had dissolved into the final night ofcamp and I was chaperoning the “last dance”。 The students were doing all theycould to savor every last moment with their new “best friends” — friends theywould probably never see again.

As I watched the campers share their parting moments, I suddenly saw whatwould be one of the most vivid memories of my life. The boy from under the tree,who stared blankly out the kitchen window, was now a shirtless dancing owned the dance floor as he and two girls proceeded to cut up a rug. Iwatched as he shared meaningful, intimate time with people at whom he couldn’teven look just days earlier. I couldn’t believe it was him. In October of mysophomore year, a late-night phone call pulled me away from my chemistry book. Asoft-spoken, unfamiliar voice asked politely, “Is Kevin there?”

“You’re talking to him. Who’s this?”

“This is Tom Johnson’s mom. Do you remember Tommy from leadership camp?”

The boy under the tree. How could I not remember? “Yes, I do”, I said.“He’s a very nice young man. How is he?”

An abnormally long pause followed, then Mrs. Johnson said, “My Tommy waswalking home from school this week when he was hit by a car and killed.”Shocked, I offered my condolences.

“I just wanted to call you”, she said, “because Tommy mentioned you so manytimes. I wanted you to know that he went back to school this fall withconfidence. He made new friends. His grades went up. And he even went out on afew dates. I just wanted to thank you for making a difference for Tom. The lastfew months were the best few months of his life.”

In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of yourself everyday. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tellthis story as often as I can, and when I do, I urge others to look out for theirown “boy under the tree.”

在大一到大二之間的那個暑假，密歇根的一所大學主辦一次中學學生幹部夏令營，邀我擔任輔導員。對於校園的多數活動，我都持贊同態度並積極參與，那次我同樣欣然接受了。

頭一天活動進行大約一個鐘頭，我注意到，開始活躍的營員們興致濃厚，不太自然地互動起來，而樹下卻有一個孤零零的男孩。他身材矮小，瘦弱不堪，那明顯的不安和羞怯使他顯得不堪一擊。在只有五十英尺遠的地方，二百名充滿激情的營員正在玩耍、開玩笑並互作介紹，而樹下的男孩似乎除了想呆在原地，不想去任何地方。他流露出的極度孤獨令我幾乎難以靠近，但我沒忘記資深輔導員們的提示：對可能感覺受到冷落的營員要保持警惕。

我走向那個男孩，對他説：“嗨！我叫凱文，是你們的輔導員。很高興認識你，你好嗎？”

帶着顫抖的怯生生的聲音，他勉強答道：“我想——還好吧。”

我平靜地問他想不想投入到那些活動從而結識一些人，他輕聲回答：“不，那不關我的事。”

我能感覺到他在面對一個新的環境，這種體驗對他來説是全然陌生的。也不知為什麼，我覺得強迫他加入也不妥當。他不需要鼓勵性的講，他需要的是朋友。幾次沉默之後，我和樹下男孩的接觸就此結束。

第二天吃午飯的時候，我扯開嗓門，領着二百名剛認識的新朋友唱起了營歌。營員們都熱情參與，我的目光遊移於這羣人，忽然那個“樹下男孩”的樣子吸引了我的注意：他孤零零地坐着，眼瞅着窗外。我幾乎忘記了領唱的歌詞。只要一有機會，我就會照舊用那些話問他：“你怎麼樣？你好嗎？”

他的回答依然是：“嗯，我很好。我真地不想參與那種事兒。”

我離開自助餐廳的時候充分認識到，扭轉這種狀況所需的時間和所做的努力要比我想像的要多——即便是在能讓他徹底“迷途知返”的情況下。

在當晚的全體工作人員會議上，我告訴了他們我對他的擔憂。我向同事們説明他給我留下的印象，請求他們對他給以特別的關注，並儘可能花時間和他在一起。

每年我在營地度過的日子總是一晃而過，感覺比其它時間過得快。這次同樣如此。我還沒明白過來，星期三已成過去，露營的最後一晚來到了。我伴隨營員們跳起“最後的舞蹈”。學生們都在竭力品味跟新“摯友”在一起的最後每一刻——他們或許以後再也見不到面了。

營員們共度這難忘的分別時刻，這時我突然目睹了我一生都記憶最清晰的一幕：那個曾透過廚房窗户茫然盯着外面的樹下男孩，此時卻成了不穿襯衫的跳舞奇才。他和兩個女孩跳着搖擺舞，在舞池裏到處舞動。我注視着他跟大家共享這親密無間又意義深長的時刻，而僅僅幾天前他卻對他們連瞧也不瞧一眼。判若兩人，讓我無法相信。

我大二那年的十月，深夜的一個電話讓我放下化學課本，一個柔和卻生疏的聲音彬彬有禮地問道：

“凱文在嗎？”

“我就是，您是哪位？”

“我是湯姆？約翰遜的母親，您還記得那個參加夏令營的湯米嗎？”

樹下的那個男孩，我怎麼會不記得呢？

“我記得。”我説，“他是個很不錯的小夥子，他現在情況怎麼樣？”

長長的反常沉默過後，約翰遜夫人又説道：“湯米這個星期從學校回家的時候，一輛汽車撞了他使他辭別人世。”我感到震驚，向她表示我的哀悼。

“我給您打電話，”她説，“只因為湯米好多次説起過您。我想讓您知道，他今年秋季返校時有了自信心，交了新朋友，學習成績提高了，甚至還出去約會過幾次。我只想表達我的感激之情，因為是您改變了他。最後的這幾個月是他度過的生命中最美好的時光。”

在那一刻，我意識到，你每天奉獻出一點點還是容易得很，你可能永遠都不知道你的舉動對他人的影響有多大。我常常講起這個故事，每當講起的時候，我總是力勸別人也注意一下他們自己的“樹下男孩”。

正如我們所知，生活中大部分事情都需要金錢。但是金錢不是唯一的，很多東西金錢買不到，比如時間和真愛。

一天有24小時，當我們快樂時，我們希望時間會可以更長。但是無論我們怎麼做，花多少錢，都不可能讓一天有25個小時。另外金錢買不到的是真愛，金錢可以買到大房子，漂亮的衣服，但買不到時間和真愛。

經典英語演講小短文 篇三

One would think that a person make out will be very cool, actually otherwise, when you are in a great deal of frustration, you will understand the importance of the partners, the value of cooperation.

Points, is separated. When you asked a friend dear John, have you ever thought about, how many friends you have. When you are lonely, have you ever thought how much you have true friends. True friends, when you are sad comfort you, and will encourage you when you lost, will help you, when you difficult will indicate the direction for you when you are lost, so, just a “friend”. When parents sick in bed, but swept flatly, cut off the last hope of life, the parents this is not only the irreverent to life, also reflects the inner evil.

When you fail, have you ever thought that you need someone to comfort, points, representing the loneliness and fragile, left the group of geese fly is not far, only to return to his, can play to their ability.

Close, is cooperation. Cooperation is one of the magic weapon of the successful people. People has the inherent potential, this potential to succeed may be one person, but this potential only under special circumstances will burst into its own power. The human potential, the most powerful, the most easy to use, is cooperation. Successful cooperation can create infinite wealth, has the material wealth and spiritual wealth, and contribute to people's wealth.

A man without a friend, leave the inner goodness, cannot leave the cooperation, cannot leave the most is the human nature.

有人會認為一個人在外闖蕩會很酷，其實不然，當你在遭受莫大的挫折後，你就會了解到夥伴的重要，合作的可貴。

分，就是分離。當你向朋友提出絕交的時候，你是否考慮過，自己到底還有多少朋友。當你孤獨的時候，你是否想過你有多少真正的朋友。真正的朋友，會在你傷心的時候安慰你，會在你失落時鼓勵你，會在你困難時幫助你，會在你迷惘的時候為你指明方向，如此，才可謂“益友”。當父母病重在牀是，遊子卻斷然離去，掐斷了父母對生命最後的希冀，這不僅是對生命的大不敬，還反映了人內心的邪惡。

當你失敗時，你可曾想過你需要一個人來安慰，分，代表着孤獨與脆弱，離開了羣體的大雁是飛不遠的，只有迴歸雁羣，才能發揮自己的能力。

合，便是合作。合作是人制勝的法寶之一。人有與生俱來的潛力，這種潛力能是一個人獲得成功，但這種潛力只有在特殊情況下才會爆發出它自己的力量。而人的潛力中，最強大，最容易使用的，就是合作。成功的合作可以創造無窮的財富，有物質上的財富，有精神上的財富，還有貢獻給人們的財富
