2、en now i amstanding here giving my speech is somehow also success.however, as a person¡¯s whole life is concerned, success becomes verycomplicated. is fortune success? is fame success? is high social status success? no, i don¡¯t think so. i believe success is the realization of

4、 the problem is wether it is real success. we all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. if we keep chasing them, where is the end? what will satisfy us at last? therefore, we can see, to get the real success we must need something inside, which is the

10、de;ñý½²¸åto me march 28th was a lucky day. it was on that particular evening that i found myself at central stage, in the spotlight. winning the 21st century¡¤ericsson cup seventh national english speaking competition is a memory that i shall treasu
11、re and one that will surely stay.more important than winning the cup is the friendship that has been established and developed among the contestants, and the chance to communicate offstage in addition to competing onstage. also the competition helps boost public speaking in china, a skill hitherto u
12、ndervalued.for me, though, the competition is a more personal experience. habitually shy, i had been reluctant to take part in any such activities. encouraged by my friends, however, i made a last-minute decision to give it a try. in the course of preparation i somehow rediscovered myself, a truer m
13、e.i found that, after all, i like communicating with other people; that exchanging views can be so much fun¡ªand so much rewarding, both emotionally and intellectually; that public speaking is most effective when you are least guarded; and that it is essential to success in every walk of
14、life.at a more practical level, i realized knowing what you are going to say and how you are going to say it are equally important. to take the original ideas out of your head and transplant them, so to speak, to that of others, you need to have an organized mind. this ability improves with training
15、.yet there should not be any loss or addition or distortion in the process. those ideas that finally find their way into another head need to be recognizably yours. language is a means to transmit information, not a means to obstruct communication. it should be lucid to be penetrating.in china, cert
16、ain public speaking skills have been unduly emphasized. will it really help, we are compelled to ask, to bang at the podium or yell at the top of your lungs, if you have come with a poorly organized speech, a muddled mind, and unwillingness to truly share your views?above all, the single most import
17、ant thing i learnt was that as a public speaker, you need to pay attention, first and foremost, to the content of your speech. and second, the structure of your speech: how one idea relates and progresses to another.only after these come delivery and non-verbal communication: speed control, platform
18、 manner, and so on. pronunciation is important, yet of greater importance is this: is your language competent enough to express your ideas exactly the way you intend them to be understood?i was informed afterwards that i was chosen to be the winner for my appropriately worded speech, excellent prese
19、nce and quick-witted response. in so remarking, the judges clearly showed their preference: they come to listen for meaningful ideas, not for loose judgments, nor easy laughters.some contestants failed to address their questions head on. some were able to, but did not know where to stop¡ª
20、the dragging on betrayed their lack of confidence. the root cause was that they did not listen attentively to the questions. or they were thinking of what they had prepared.as i said in my speech, it is vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking . to take them issues like global
21、ization on and give them honest thinking is the first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way. we need to respond honestly.a competition like this draws talented students from all over the country. and of course, i learnt more things than just about public speaking.
22、since in the final analysis, public speaking is all about effective communication. and this goes true for all communications, whatever their setting.and the following is the final version of my speech:at a more practical level, i realized knowing what you are going to say and how you are going to sa

31、r all communications, whatever their setting.and the following is the final version of my speech: president hatcher, governor romney, senators mcnamara and hart, congressmen meader and staebler, and other members of the fine michigan delegation, members of the graduating class, my fellow ameri
32、cans:it is a great pleasure to be here today. this university has been coeducational since 1870, but i do not believe it was on the basis of your accomplishments that a detroit high school girl said (and i quote), in choosing a college, you first have to decide whether you want a coeducational schoo
33、l or an educational school. well, we can find both here at michigan, although perhaps at different hours. i came out here today very anxious to meet the michigan student whose father told a friend of mine that his son's education had been a real value. it stopped his mother from bragging about h
34、im.i have come today from the turmoil of your capital to the tranquility of your campus to speak about the future of your country. the purpose of protecting the life of our nation and preserving the liberty of our citizens is to pursue the happiness of our people. our success in that pursuit is the
35、test of our success as a nation.for a century we labored to settle and to subdue a continent. for half a century we called upon unbounded invention and untiring industry to create an order of plenty for all of our people. the challenge of the next half century is whether we have the wisdom to use th
36、at wealth to enrich and elevate our national life, and to advance the quality of our american civilization.your imagination and your initiative and your indignation will determine whether we build a society where progress is the servant of our needs, or a society where old values and new visions are
37、 buried under unbridled growth. for in your time we have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the great society.the great society rests on abundance and liberty for all. it demands an end to poverty and racial injustice, to which we are tot
38、ally committed in our time. but that is just the beginning.the great society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. it is a place where leisure is a welcome chance to build and reflect, not a feared cause of boredom and restlessness. it is a pl
39、ace where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. it is a place where man can renew contact with nature. it is a place which honors creation for its own sake and for what is adds to the understanding of
40、 the race. it is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.but most of all, the great society is not a safe harbor, a resting place, a final objective, a finished work. it is a challenge constantly renewed, beckoning us toward a destiny whe
41、re the meaning of our lives matches the marvelous products of our labor.so i want to talk to you today about three places where we begin to build the great society - in our cities, in our countryside, and in our classrooms.many of you will live to see the day, perhaps 50 years from now, when there w
42、ill be 400 million americans - four-fifths of them in urban areas. in the remainder of this century urban population will double, city land will double, and we will have to build homes and highways and facilities equal to all those built since this country was first settled. so in the next 40 years
43、we must re-build the entire urban united states.aristotle said: men come together in cities in order to live, but they remain together in order to live the good life. it is harder and harder to live the good life in american cities today. the catalog of ills is long: there is the decay of the center
44、s and the despoiling of the suburbs. there is not enough housing for our people or transportation for our traffic. open land is vanishing and old landmarks are violated. worst of all expansion is eroding these precious and time honored values of community with neighbors and communion with nature. th
45、e loss of these values breeds loneliness and boredom and indifference.and our society will never be great until our cities are great. today the frontier of imagination and innovation is inside those cities and not beyond their borders. new experiments are already going on. it will be the task of you
46、r generation to make the american city a place where future generations will come, not only to live, but to live the good life. and i understand that if i stayed here tonight i would see that michigan students are really doing their best to live the good life.this is the place where the peace corps
47、was started.it is inspiring to see how all of you, while you are in this country, are trying so hard to live at the level of the people.a second place where we begin to build the great society is in our countryside. we have always prided ourselves on being not only america the strong and america the
48、 free, but america the beautiful. today that beauty is in danger. the water we drink, the food we eat, the very air that we breathe, are threatened with pollution. our parks are overcrowded, our seashores overburdened. green fields and dense forests are disappearing.a few years ago we were greatly concerned about the ugly american. today we must act to prevent an ugly
