点滴小事品味人生{高中生5分钟英文演讲}原创.ppt

* The Quality of Life Is Measured by Little Things We each long to do something great with our life. But what is greatness? How can a person really make an impact on the world around them? How can we experience the quality of life? The definition of the quality of life may differ from person to person. The way for people to achieve a quality of life may vary from one another. However one thing is certain, the quality of life is measured by little things. 在漫长的生命过程中，我们每个人都渴望着做一两件伟大的事情。但是什么样的事情才能算伟大呢？一个人的人生价值究竟能有多大呢？我们应如何去体味人生的价值呢？这，我们不得不承认，不同的人对人生价值有着不同的定义，不同的人获取人生价值的途径也不尽相同，但是，有一点却是肯定的：点滴小事体现人生。 Every day were called to do small things with great love. Thus claimed the U.S. President Gorge W. Bush in his inaugural speech. Through touching every little thing, Helen Keller knew the outer world, and longed for three days to see to emphasize sharply the values of life. 美国总统乔治·布什在他的就职演讲中说：每一天，我们都应饱含深情地去做好每一件小事。作家海伦·凯勒只能通过触摸生活中的每一种物品，来感觉和认识这个丰富多彩的外部世界，在她的文章———《假如给我三天光明》中，她是多么渴望能得到光明去充分品味她的人生，哪怕只有三天！ And I still remember my childhood dream was to become a millionaire so I could bring about a happy life to my parents. But now it seems that by frequent going back home, or a simple phone call to my family on a very ordinary day or a letter enclosed with a smiling picture of me makes them even happier. How much greater difference can these little things make than a million yuan. 可是，这只是她的一个梦想，无法实现的。这使我想起我儿时的梦想：有朝一日自己能成为一个百万富翁，那样我就能让父母过上快乐幸福的生活。但是，现在我发现，经常回家看看自己日益年迈的父母，在很普通的日子给家里打个电话或捎封信回家并附上自己一张面带微笑的照片，也照样甚至更能让他们感觉到幸福和满足。是的，这些小事所起的作用甚至是一百万元钱也做不到的。 The so-called little things are merely the causes of great things; they are the beginning, the embryo, and it is the point of departure, which generally speaking, decides the whole future of the quality of life. 事实上，我们所说的小事恰好是那些伟大事情的萌芽和开端，是决定一个有意义人生的旅程和起点。 我时常想，如果没有最为简单的交流沟通和最起码的理解与支持，我们就无法增进朋友之间的情谊；而对于那些有病在身但仍在坚持给学生上课的老师，课间如能为他们端上一杯清茶或递上一张问候的纸条，也能很好地表达出我们对老师的真诚和感激之情；要履行自己对社会的责任和义务，我们不妨从小事做起，从给那些需要帮助的人以援助之手和真爱之心开始。 To strength
