Good afternoon, Honorable Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen, the title of my speech is Defeat makes me more confident.
Most people may think that defeat is a kind of obstacle that prevents you from being successful. Quite the contrary, I believe defeat makes me more confident.
As you may know, if you can not be an excellent loser you will never win. Everything in my life always shows both my advantages and disadvantages. I have been entering a lot of contests. I don’t care about the results, but feel it is more important to learn something during the process. After I failed in the contests each time, the judges always gave me useful comments and suggestion addressing my shortcomings and helped me improve myself step by step. So, now I am more self-confident to face any challenges and believe I will be the final winner in my life.

Many people yearn to be more self-confident. Yet they have no idea how to achieve that objective. They look at others who have the gift and say, “Hey that’s what I want. I hate feeling unsure of myself. I wish I could stop obsessing about what others think of me and quit worrying about disappointing other people. I want to stop anguishing over my decisions and torturing myself about my mistakes. I think it would be so great to feel self-assured, hold my head up high and stand tall. I’ve never been self-confident. I wish there were a way I could be.”
There is a way. You don’t have to be born with self-confidence. Self-confidence can grow and flourish and ripen and blossom until you actually come to feel as though there is a different person inside of you. Here are some insights that might facilitate the quest.
Learn what a self-confident person is really like. They are not cocky, know-it-all people who don’t care what anybody else thinks. They have their doubts. And make mistakes. And are far from perfect. However, they are willing to acknowledge their inadequacies without dwelling on them. They do this by maintaining a sense of humor, putting problems in perspective, and focusing mainly on what they’ve done right, not wrong.
Though self-confident people do believe in themselves, they don’t try to suffocate others with their ideas or beliefs. They are confident in what they know not only because they read, learn and think but also because they respect their instinct, intuition and the unique body of knowledge that they’ve developed by living life. They realize that one doesn't have to be labeled an “expert” to believe in one's own truths.
Self-confident people don’t undermine their own worth by comparing themselves with others, only to conclude that they aren’t “good enough”. They appreciate their strengths and accomplishments and can acknowledge, without embarrassment, their weaknesses. They don’t live in the “victim” position. Even if something really bad has occurred, they turn it into a challenge, remembering to be grateful for the little things in life.
Self-confident people let the world know who they are. If they want something badly enough, they know they have every right to “go for it.” Yet, they also know that the path will rarely be easy. Mistakes, blunders and failures are part of the learning process. They seek to learn from their mistakes and do not waste time torturing themselves over what “could have been”.
Self-confident people are not obstinate people. If they have an idea about something and it differs from the way another person is thinking about it, they will usually try to look at it from that person’s point of view, see why it makes sense to them. Yet, a confident person’s sense of self is grounded. It does not blow in the wind. Their ideas do not fluctuate based on what others deem are important.
I hope these insights are helpful to you. If so, perhaps one day you will be able to say what the actress Phyllis Rashad once said, simply but eloquently, ” I am just myself and who I am is a lot.”

Today I am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. What is success? It is what everyone is longing times success would be rather simple. Winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; making a new friend is success; even now I am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.
However, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very complicated. Is fortune success? Is fame success? Is high social status success? No, I don’t think so. I believe success is the realization of people’ s hopes and days, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. And the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. So most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. But 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 realization of people’ hopes and ideals.
Different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopes and ideas vary from one another. But I am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. These are the best treasures. So now I am very proud that I have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. It is my success, cause I raise up to challenge my hope.
What is success? Everyone has his own interpretation as I do. But I am sure every success leads to an ever-brighter future. So ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a successful life!
Wish you all good success!

every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. my friends will listen to me when i want to speak, will wipe my eyes when i cry, will take care of me when i am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
as students, we could share more time with our friends. the friendship in our young hearts is pure, fresh and simple. i often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends. especially when i had justin as one of my best friends. justin was my english teacher from the usa. i met him in 1996 when i was a student who could only speak very little english. justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face, and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive. he taught us english by telling stories, playing games, singing songs, and even dancing.
i could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin-ished our class, we went to some other classes to sing songs for them, just like what people do in the states on christmas eve. it was so interesting and unforgettable. justin was an excellent teacher, because he taught us not only how to study english well, but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others' lives. i know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts. facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important, the real importance lay in faith, under-standing, and care. justin is the best friend i have ever had, and i know i will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory.
friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. it is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. it is also like a cup of tea. when we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
however, in this fast-developing modern society, the reality is not that. more and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of life and -the beauty of friendship. they work hard in order to gain a higher position, in the society and to earn more money for their work. of course, we don't deny that it is important to find a bet-ter place in our lives, but we wish more and more people could pay a little more attention to themselves and their friends. all of us have to spare some time for personal lives. we have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. when staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. we can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. i should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
as we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. but it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. there is a famous motto saying that “a friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” it is really true. we have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. when we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts.

hello,everyone. good afternoon. thank you for giving me this opportunity to talk about my top concern. i'm no.26, i'll talk about friend.
everyone of us,rich or poor,should at least have one or two good friends. my friend will listen to me when i want to speak, will help me when i need,will take care of me when i am sick,and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
when i was ten, i was suddenly confronted with the anguish of transferring to other school. i had to left my friends i had ever known. as a kid,i feel lonely when i study in a new environment without a person i had known. nobody i could talk,nobody could know when i feel lonely. the time when i couldn't sleep, i'll always miss them, then the tears filled my eyes.
later, i became familar with the environment ,and made some friends ,which became my best friends then. they talked with me when i felt lonely, they helped me when i needed, they took care of me when i was sick. even through we were part, we still keep in touch with each other.
in our whole lives,we'll meet too much people but only a few can be our best friends. when staying with them,we can release ourself completely. we can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry together. i should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
but in this fast-developing modern society, the reality is not that. more and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of friendship. they work hard in order to gain a higher position in the society and to earn more money for their work. they have few time to share with their friends. with the time goes by, they will be far away from each other.
friend is kind of treasure in our lives. it's actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. it also likes a cup of hot tea, when we are in bed time, it will warm our broken hearts.
friends,especially best friends. it is what we should have in our lives,and it can make our lives be colorful go beyond our imagination.
英語課前五分鐘演講稿 篇7
“人睡到不知道時候的時候，就會有影來告別，説出那些話——”或許，總有那麼一個不知道時候的時候，我們看見了，或者忘記了;或者，就這麼上了天堂，下了地獄。天堂也罷，地獄也罷。既然已經忘記，已經逃離，又何必苛求。但至少，影曾經追隨過，在那浮浮沉沉之中，總有那麼一抹倩影成為心中拂之不去的美麗。聽説靈魂是個個體，再無影的陪伴，這道路，終是伶仃一人，那麼，可曾設想，有多少時光，留給那抹倩影，做最後的告別。
打開書的扉頁，已不知是誰用狂草寫下“勁草之美”，也不知何時曾認真讀過。細想來，年少不經事的心看着那蒼白的字眼，只覺一絲枯燥。我承認，我不是一個合格的讀者，以至於我平淡的讀完此書，再無勇氣打開。現如今，若不是某些偶然和必然，它早已成為塵封已久的祕密了。打開書，看到的是別樣的風景，想必這就是經典。在不同的年齡，不同的閲歷下，看到的是不一樣作者，聽到的是靈魂深處潛藏已久的心。我不知道，下次啟程是何時，只是如今，我準備延續這份丟失已久的冷靜。
很多人和我一樣，認識魯迅卻不瞭解魯迅，欣賞魯迅卻不認同魯迅。誠然，一個時代的背離，下一代的新生，使我們再無法真切的瞭解他。而我只是想，再多瞭解他一點，哪怕我所謂的瞭解只是浮煙。
他説：“我姑且舉灰黑的手裝作喝乾一杯酒，我將在不知道時候的時候獨自遠行。”這是一種荷戟獨彷徨的毅然，哪怕再苦悶，再無助也仍然選擇歡笑。在那“彷徨於無地”之中，也曾有多少決然，那種與生俱來的堅強，讓我看到哪怕是哭也不虛無的他。強顏歡笑，獨自遠行，終是選擇了黑暗。確乎如是，黑暗給予的是不同於光明的力量。一杯酒祭奠，又將啟程。
也許現時的率真不允許我們偽裝堅強，不由，魯迅文字中的假裝，引起我們的不屑。可又曾想過，驕傲獨立如他，又怎會用懦弱掩飾自己，只是我們不懂，我們永遠承載不了他背後的重壓。
那聲“朋友，我不想跟隨你了，我不願往。”道出了心事，是誰追隨者誰，又是誰獨自承受，以至於鋒芒盡顯真情思。又是誰像誰在告別，告別你，靈魂深處孤獨的人兒。那一刻，才是真正承擔毀滅與虛無。
不過我想，所謂的虛無，也不過是似有卻實無的假象，黑暗的代名詞而已。“我願意只是黑暗，或者會消失於你的白天;我願意只是虛空，決不佔你的心地。”這是難懂的話。姑且讓我認為是一種迴應，一種拒絕現有和將有，而毅然選擇黑暗和虛無的過程吧!只是面對這世界，那些拒絕變得如此微弱。若不是一顆堅強的心堅守着，誰能設想結局如何。他是一個成功者，發出無從逃避的生命的聲音。
最終還是，“我獨自遠行，不但沒有你，並且再沒有別的影在黑暗裏。只有我被黑暗沉沒，那世界全屬於自己。”還是一個人遠行，這份選擇需要多少的勇氣。獨自承擔，是失去了所有，卻也收穫了全部。這生命中，所謂的“有”“無”，也不過是一瞬的遐想，或許只是當一個人的時候，才是本我的最高點吧!我並不想真切地感受當一個人選擇獨行時的心情，許是落寞的，但只相信，有一種驕傲，那是在將要放棄時唯一的動力。
我讀《影的告別》，竟再讀不出影的虛無，許是魯迅的文字有一種魔力，讓我不知覺忘記事物表象。訴諸筆端的，已是那個充滿靈魂的影。更覺得，魯迅只是借這份虛無揭露事實罷了。這不僅僅是影的告別。有那麼一些人，毅然選擇離開這個骯髒的年代，用自己所及的去拒絕渾濁，那種奮鬥，有人放開了富貴，有人甚至獻出了生命，只有魯迅，以筆作戰。而這一戰，打得太久太久，以至於今，再無法忘記。
説他救贖了世界。不然，世界也救贖了他。
魯迅自己也説：“愛夜的人要有聽夜的耳朵和看夜的眼睛，自在暗中，看一切暗，愛夜的人於是領受了夜所給予的光明。”魯迅便是這般愛夜的人。黑暗中的身影，高傲如筆桿挺立着，即使肉體倒下了，脊樑也不會倒。他很成功，毅立在黑暗之上，掀開了一絲光明。當這份光襲下時，一切黑暗安息了。那個愛夜的人，終是光明的使者，而這份光明，便是黑暗的救贖。顧城“説黑暗給了我黑暗的眼睛，而我用他看到了光明”，也許便是這等意味吧!
寫到這而，我不敢説我很瞭解。我想，他是一個大家，一個大家的魅力，在於他給我靈魂深處的震撼。
不僅是《影的告別》，整本《野草》，滲透出的思想境界，許是我一生都無法追逐的。本不需追逐，只是因為魯迅，我開始思考有些人生，開始明白某些價值。説不上膜拜吧!
我永遠無法明白，這個時代塑造的他有多堅強，讀他的文字，想象着。不為什麼，只為他是魯迅，一個用生命在思考的革命者。他的記憶深處，有一種繁華落盡的蒼涼，有一種亂世無爭的坦然，一種不甘心。有時候到了不知道什麼時候的時候，他依然抱着最初的理想。沉下去而又浮上來，這些，又怎是一個普通人做得到的。若是生在現代，必成大事，將是一代偉人。只是這一切又怎麼能説，已是生於那個時代，他才是魯迅，錚錚傲骨下一個不屈的靈魂。

“曾經年少愛追夢，一心只想往前飛”，為夢想花開而拼搏追求的過程總是讓人難忘的。雖然其中有挫折，有挑戰，有競爭，但奮力去追總會讓青春熠熠發光。只有通過追求，夢想才會開出絢麗的花朵。
在中國古代，李白追求“天生我材必有用，千金散盡還復來”，才有“安能摧眉折腰事權貴，使我不得開心顏”的豪情壯語;杜甫追求“安得廣廈千萬間，大庇天下寒士俱歡顏”，才有“吾廬獨破受凍死亦足”的欣慰與滿足;陶潛追求“採菊東籬下，悠然見南山”，才有“結廬在人境，而無車馬喧”的閒適安逸。看來，追求可以使夢想花開。
正如一位哲人所説：“人生最大的快樂不在於佔有什麼，而在於追求什麼的過程。”這使我想到了李娜，這個懷揣夢想的中國姑娘，用自己訓練的汗水，堅韌的毅力，不懈的追求，終於歷史性的獲得法國網球公開賽女單冠軍，成為中國乃至亞洲在網球四大滿貫上奪得單打冠軍的第一位選手。我想，榮耀的光圈背後是李娜對夢想執着的追求，才使她獲得巨大的力量贏得冠軍。追求，讓李娜的夢想花開。
偶然進入蚌中的一粒沙，在蚌的日日磨礪下不渝地追求燦爛，方才成為一顆温潤如玉的珍珠;偶然遺於石縫的一個種子，在日曝雨打下不渝地追求茂盛，方才長成黃山上氣勢如虹的迎客鬆。
而20xx年度“感動中國”十大人物之首黃旭華，他有一個夢想便是：“讓祖國擁有核潛艇”。為了這個遠大的夢想，他默默地追求着。寒來暑往，心中不變的是對祖國人民的忠誠，甚至使他的老母親從六十歲一直等到九十歲才見到他一面。他用行動告訴我們追求的過程有困難，有挫折，但絕不應該放棄，讓追求化為核潛艇一般，無聲，卻藴藏着巨大的力量。追求，讓黃旭華的夢想花開。
大家似乎只知道梵高的成功是偶然，卻不見那個終日於阿爾小鎮擁抱陽光並付出身心的青年，眾只知體操王子童非成功是偶遇名師指點，卻不知年少時的他在老師門前為求一見而不停地翻着跟斗，眾只道周杰倫偶然被人提攜而漸成為華語天王，卻忘記當年的他日夜寫歌，將夢積累成厚厚一疊。
他們為夢想都在奮力地追求着，他們的追求似朵朵希冀的浪花沾濕他們的靈魂，卻又似紅日之火燃點他們真正的自己，使他們在追求的過程中不斷成長。
梭羅曾説：“只有執着追求並從中得到最大快樂的人，才是成功者。”很多人説，《老人與海》中的老人很愚蠢，一個人孤獨地同鯊魚搏鬥，歷盡千辛萬苦，最終卻拖回魚骨，一無所獲。而我認為老人是一位智者，他知道去追逐自己的夢想，體會同鯊魚搏鬥的樂趣，他雖失肉體上的食糧，卻換來精神上的存量——追求夢想的快樂。
溪流入海，雖九曲十彎，卻依然執着，因為它追求永恆;大雁南飛，即使是崇山峻嶺也決不放棄，因為它追求温暖。無論是古人還是今人，對夢想的追求總是執着，永不停歇。追求是一種偉大的力量，定會使踏實的我們的夢想綻放繽紛的花朵。

一直盼望着能夠一覽大海的壯闊，這次終於可以如願以償了。暑假，媽媽帶我來到了美麗的海南。
海南之行的第三天下午，我們來到了三亞大東海，終於可以一睹海的風采了。剛下旅遊車，還沒看到大海，就清楚的聽見了大海的聲音。於是我迫不及待地跑到了海灘上，此時眼前就是無邊無際的大海。在柔軟的金黃色的海灘上走着，三亞漫長的海岸，藍藍的海水，金色的海灘與那無邊的大海組成了美麗的圖景。清涼的海風撲面而來，令人興奮不已。眺望遠處的海面，温柔而有平靜。遠處那一條細長的線把湛藍的海面和蔚藍的天空連在了一起。
太陽掛在地平線上方，金色的陽光柔和地灑在海面上，恰如流動的熔巖把海與天的交界處染成了一片金黃。脱了鞋，我赤腳漫步在柔軟的海灘上，盡情地享受清涼海風的撫摩，金色陽光的沐浴。在內心深處我聽到了生命之弦正在演奏着激昂奔放的青春舞曲。
“喂，斌斌!起浪了，我們一起去衝浪吧。”不要打擾我，讓我把眼前湛藍色的海盡收眼底。等等!衝浪?一想起海的壯闊，海的博大胸懷，不能不讓人衝動。於是，就迫不及待地換了泳衣，帶着泳圈，奔向大海，投入了海的懷抱，盡情地去享受大海賦予的樂趣。我們手拉着手走到了不太深浪又較大的地方。十幾個人牽着手，在海中拉成了一排。望着遠處的海面，溶身於大海之中，一切煩惱隨之煙消雲散。在這漫長的人生之路，煩惱只不過是天邊的雲霞，生活中的點綴。海面上盪漾着漣漪。突然，她發了瘋似的，藉着海風，推着浪花向我們這兒湧來，越來越近了。大家心裏數着一，二，三，跳!一個浪剛剛過，等我剛回過神來，她又一次發作，藉着清涼的海風，再一次卷“浪”重來，她揚着頭向我們重來，一次不肯歇息。
在大海里衝浪，當然免不了嗆幾口海水。海水鹹鹹的，澀澀的，有一丁點兒苦，其中也夾雜着一絲甜味。這是我第一次品嚐到海的味道，感覺是那麼的特別。我實實在在地感受到了自然界的力量，不由得有些恐懼，但也只有去與之拼搏才不會被它所吞沒。
在海中衝浪，一會就玩累了。於是，便披着於浴巾走上了海灘。眼睛注視着腳旁，才發現海灘上有好多美麗的貝殼。潔白的貝殼上點綴着棕色的斑點，還有與海水一樣顏色的哩!瞧，那邊還有被潮水衝上岸的粉紅色的海螺，淡綠色的海螺，乳白色的海螺，多種多樣，多姿多彩。我躺在柔軟的海灘上，享受着陽光的沐浴，看着無邊無際，寬廣的大海，還有蔚藍的天空和金黃色的沙灘，這美景實在令人心曠神怡。
太陽漸漸落下，在海天交界處泛起了點點紅霞。天色漸漸暗了下來，我卻久久不願離開。

president clinton, senator clinton, president carter and mrs. carter, president bush and mother governor and mrs. huckabee, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen: laura and i are really pleased to be a part of this happy and historic occasion. on this day of dedication, we honor the man from hope, arkansas, who became the 42nd president of the united states. mr. president, congratulations.
this presidential library chronicles a vivid era in american history, for the benefit of future generations. it will contribute to the vitality of this fine city and to the great state of arkansas. the collections here record the dedication and hard work of thousands, who brought talent and idealism to public service. and at the center of that era, at the head of that administration, was an able and energetic american. president bill clinton led our country with optimism and a great affection for the american people, and that affection has been returned. he gave all to his job, and the nation gave him two terms.
in the early 1990s, the american people saw a young, well-spoken, relatively unknown governor rise to national prominence. yet for decades here in arkansas, the signs of destiny were clear. when young william entered a new school in the 4th grade, a classmate recalls, "he didn't mean to, but he just took the place over." when governor clinton declared his candidacy for president in this city, his close friends were not surprised in the least. they'd always known that bill clinton's moment in history would come.
arkansas is a state that knows political skill when you see it. a fellow in saline county was asked by his son why he liked governor clinton so much. he said, son, he'll look you in the eye, he'll shake your hand, he'll hold your baby, he'll pat your dog -- all at the same time.
over the years, bill clinton showed himself to be much more than a good politician. his home state elected him governor in the 1970s, the 1980s, and the 1990s, because he was an innovator, a serious student of policy, and a man of great compassion. in the white house, the whole nation witnessed his brilliance and mastery of detail, his persuasive power, and his persistence. the president is not the kind to give up a fight. his staffers were known to say, "if clinton were the titanic, the iceberg would sink."

母親節規定一個專門的日子來表達人們對母親的尊敬，並不是現代的發明，而是一個非常古老的習俗。古希臘人曾在樹林或山洞中舉行儀式，對女神的母親頂禮膜拜。到古羅馬時，這些活動的規模就變得更大，慶祝盛況往往持續達三天之久。當然，古時人們對女神的崇拜只不過是一種迷信，它同今天人們對母性的尊敬是大不相同的。
美利堅合眾國的母親節，始於1907年5月。要求定立母親節這一倡儀是費城安娜·M·賈維斯提出的。她曾親自在教堂中安排儀式，組織活動，同時要求前來參加者胸前要佩戴白色的石竹花。這一活動，曾引起了不少人的關注和興趣。翌年，便有更多的教堂紛紛組織同樣的活動;人們還一致決定將每年5月的第二個星期日定為母親節。從此母親節便在美利堅合眾國成了一個公認的正式節日。
1911年，慶祝母親節的活動已經開展得非常廣泛，不僅席捲美利堅合眾國的每一個州，而且連加拿大、墨西哥和南美的一些國家也都開始慶祝這個節日。美利堅合眾國人還把宣傳母親節的傳單用十種不同文字印發到各國去，以便擴大影響。此後幾年中，慶祝母親節運動的熱潮有增無已。1912年，美利堅合眾國專門成立了母親節國際協會。1913年5月，美利堅合眾國眾議院一致通過決議，號召總統以及內閣、參眾兩院和聯邦政府的一切官員一律在母親節佩戴白色石竹花。1914年，美利堅合眾國國會正式命名5月的第二個星期日為母親節，並要求總統發佈宣言，號召政府官員在所有的公共建築物上懸掛國旗。緊接着，威爾遜總統昭告全國公民也在自己的住宅上掛國旗以表達人們對美利堅合眾國全體母親的熱愛和尊敬。此後美利堅合眾國總統每年都要發表一篇內容相同的宣言。

花兒，忘不了太陽的恩情;魚兒，忘不了水的恩情;白雲，忘不了藍天的恩情;我們，忘不了老師的恩情。
——題記
大雁南飛。晨光掠影。回憶歸盡。
落葉在空中盤旋，譜寫着一曲感恩的樂章，那是大樹對滋養它大地的感恩;白雲在蔚藍的天空中飄蕩，繪畫着那一幅幅感人的畫面，那是白雲對哺育它的藍天的感恩。因為感恩才會有這個多彩的社會，因為感恩才會有真摯的友情。因為感恩才讓我們懂得了生命的真諦。
在我人生當中，遇見了很多位老師。有關心我的，有對我嚴厲的。但是有一位老師，是我怎麼也不能忘懷的。
記得那是四年前的下午，同學們是異常活躍，在教室裏追逐打鬧。我也沒有心思去管，就懶洋洋地趴在桌子上，突然，兩個同學正玩着的一個盛滿水的杯子朝我飛過來，不偏不倚正好重重地砸在我的頭上。我只覺得眼前一黑，疼痛使我大哭起來。同學們也都面面相覷，呆在那裏惶恐起來，誰也不敢去叫老師。這時，我的班主任姜老師走進了教室看到這番情形後，沒有去批評任何同學，卻是立刻來到我的身邊俯下身子關切地問：“怎麼樣，不要緊吧?來，讓我看看。”聽到姜老師關切的話語，看到姜老師着急的樣子，我的疼痛好像減輕了許多。我抬起頭來，姜老師問明瞭砸的地方，她輕輕地扒開我的頭髮撫弄着，看到頭上已經起了好大一個包。我從眼睛的餘光裏可以看到姜老師那瞬間心痛的表情。她不同於我任何一位老師，她疼愛我就像疼愛自己的孩子一樣，嘴裏還在不停地問：“很疼吧?一定很疼，都起包了，不過，還好不是很嚴重。”我知道姜老師是在安慰我，我連忙説：“姜老師，沒事了，我已經不疼了，您不要擔心我了。”姜老師還是不放心地説：“為了安全起見，我還是帶你去看校醫吧，若是把你打出個什麼毛病來就不值當了。”我説：“姜老師，我真的沒事，您放心吧!”姜老師看我堅持不去，只好順從。轉身剛想走，餘光看到我呲牙咧嘴的表情，轉過身來便説：“你看，還逞能。我等會兒再看，你有什麼不舒服一定要告訴我，好嗎?”我答應了。
下課後，我把各個小組收齊的作業交到辦公室去，當我轉身要走的時候，姜老師叫住了我，她一把把我攬入懷中，一邊親切地問我還疼嗎，一邊輕輕地扒開頭髮查看那個大包是否還是那麼嚴重。此時，我的熱淚奪眶而出，倒不是因為疼，而是因為感動，因為擁有這麼一位慈祥的老師而感到無比幸福。
寫完這篇文章，我的淚情不自禁地滴濕了鍵盤。姜老師，不知，您過得還好嗎?聽着每一滴對您那顆敬愛的心而感激的淚，這悦耳的風鈴聲始終在耳邊輕輕地環繞着，流淌着，歌唱着，彷彿在譜寫我對您的思念的舞曲，彷彿在向我傾訴思念您的苦楚……
“春蠶到死絲方盡，蠟燭成灰淚始幹”，這句經典名言正是教師工作者一生的真實寫照，而作為一名負責任、有經驗的老教師，我相信您一定會以“紅燭”為已任，為教育事業的振興譜寫更加壯麗的青春之歌。有學生對您終身感激，也許是您在教師生涯中最榮耀的事情吧。
姜老師，感謝您，讓我遇到了您。我終身難忘……

清明，給人的印象總是一片濕雨。彷彿有了這雨，清明才更能顯得出它淡淡悲涼和絲絲憶念的味道來。是清明成全了這場雨，更是這雨襯托了清明。望着飄灑的細雨，才更能引得人們心中那種淡淡的哀愁和思。這雨或是風狂雨恣，或是和風細雨，從清晨開始，至黃昏之際，在煙雨瀰漫的山野中，在泥濘難行的小路上，總有頂風冒雨，點綴寂寥，行行重行行的掃墓人;或三五成羣，扶老攜幼，或一二個孤影，跚跚獨行。遠山隱在雲霧裏，近樹籠在孤煙前，小橋流水，愁鴉悲啼，雨洗清秋，風吹哀愁，唯見煙雨一片蒼茫，不見人家與炊煙。好一個傷感寂寥的行旅，好一個悽迷彷徨的畫面。抬頭偶望，墓地黯然見：百墳拱起，千碑林立;煙雨朦朦，青草何離離。一片荒涼，一片悽迷，一片死寂!山孤煙霧薄，樹小雨聲稀!風飄飄，雨瀟瀟，哀思悠悠，悲情渺渺，莫道不銷魂，何處暗香盈袖?拔淨一片亂草，擺下幾杯冷酒，燒上一把紙錢，風雨愁煞人，杯土帶愁，雜草含煙，竟無言以對，唯有心底彌滿幽幽的愁緒和淡淡的哀愁!死者長已矣，存者永懷悲!音容笑貌，歷歷在目，昔日種種，猶言在耳，但客心逐流水，隨緣到天涯，念千里孤墳何處話淒涼?
回味少年時，清明節雨，在我的印象中只是一幅優美的畫卷。隨風飄灑的細雨中，一位騎着馬趕路的清貧詩人，俯身向着一個小牧童，牧童站在道旁，一手握着鞭子，一手遙遙指着間草房。草房上空，一面紅色的酒幡在薄薄的細雨中時隱時現。這大概是源於《清明》這首詩吧。“ 清明時節雨紛紛，路上行人慾斷魂。借問酒家何處有?牧童遙指杏花村。”“清明時節雨紛紛，路上行人慾斷魂。”為什麼“斷魂”?因為“古墓花影白楊樹，盡是生死離別處。”我無憂的歲月裏，這首詩所給予我的就是這樣一種恬美的意境。少年無憂的時光總是短暫的，就像童年放起的一隻風箏，掙斷了線，便消失的無影無蹤，到處也尋覓不到了。這首詩，今天讀來仍然那麼哀怨，那麼親切。古往今來，人性中某些共同的、美好的感情，四海相通，古今相通。人事有代謝，往來成古今。生者總是會不斷地成為逝者。有人説，對別人的思念會隨着時間的流逝，越來越淡。我想，或許對於至愛親人的思念恰恰與之相反吧。即使過了再長的時間，在每次憶起他們音容笑貌時，我們的心中總會有些酸酸涼涼的感覺吧。哪怕是十年、幾十年，這種感覺也不會減弱、消失，反而會變的更加強烈。正因如此，清明節才會成為一個流傳千年的日子;清明時節的細雨，才會綿綿不絕地紛紛而至，這大概是對於人們心中哀愁的感應吧。又是清明瞭。“男兒有淚不輕彈”，我不能流淚。但對親人綣綣的思念，灑下所有的淚，回憶就不僅僅再是生活的負擔。我們再次體會人世間的愛心與温暖，拼合破碎的心，微笑着重新揚起生活的風帆。我們感慨世事無常人生苦短，曾經真正愛過，生命便不存在遺憾。援手於他人危難，自己在挫折中保持樂觀，只要心中有愛，愛就會沒有遺憾，人生永遠是美麗的春天。有拜託清明的細雨了，希望她如期而至，就算是世人慾流而難流的淚吧!

讓，是一種文明，是一種道德，是一種文化。翹首回顧中華五千年的歷史長河，“讓”隨處可見。“讓”已流入中國人的血液，注入中國人的骨髓。“讓”，雖只見於細微之處，卻營造了一片充滿陽光的天空。
在公共汽車上，年輕人起身讓座給老人、小孩、婦女。一個渺小的動作，卻深深注入每個人的瞳孔，激盪着每個人的心靈。陽光透過窗口柔和地射進來，多麼和諧呀!
田間的小路，狹窄而又曲折地伸向遠方。一山難容二虎，一條小路難容二人，一人站在旁邊的田梗上，等待着另一人的走過。一個輕輕的邁步，方便了他人，快樂了自己，陽光普照大地，照出了人的心靈，照出了人的美德。
“讓”，有時可以製造一份驚喜，一份美好。
今天你或許給某人讓了座，你會覺得今天的旭日東昇格外美麗，今日的風格外涼爽，今日的鮮花開得格外爛漫。——“讓”，製造了驚喜。
母親讓出了自己的青春，自己的歲月，自己的全部，換來了子女的平安，子女的青春，子女的幸福。——“讓”，製造了美好。
“讓”使白雲顯得格外飄逸，敞開一片充滿陽光的天空。“讓”的過程如品茶，越品越香濃;“讓”的形式如喝白開水，越飲越單純;“讓”的結果如蜂蜜，一直甜到腳底。
讓鼠標脱離指尖，你會發現原來書海里也有寶庫;讓憂鬱的心遠離，你會發現原來生活如此美妙;讓飄蕩的心迴歸，你會發現原來學習如此有趣。
其“讓”也，足以顯才，足以博贊，足以煉情。讓出一種風度，一種品味，一種人格。“讓”可使扭曲的心靈迴歸到正確的軌道，“讓”可使今日的輝煌為明日的發展打下基礎，“讓”可使陰暗的天空充滿陽光併發出迷人的色彩。
你讓，我讓，大家讓，這樣就能營造出“我讓人人，人人讓我”的和諧社會氛圍。沒有“讓”的日子猶如沒有陽光的日子。沒有一隻鳥的樹林不成樹林，沒有一滴水的江河不成江河，沒有一點“讓”的社會不成社會。

什麼是女孩兒?女孩兒就是一羣嘻嘻哈哈將快樂與幸福帶給每一位的小天使。女孩的真誠可使鐵石感化，女孩的美麗可使盛開的玫瑰失色，女孩的温柔可使洶湧的波濤平靜。每個女孩都有一段如夢般的花季。快樂中又帶點煩惱，如此地有滋有味。
女孩兒似乎就是快樂的代名詞，無論在哪裏都能聽到他們的歡聲笑語，像山泉般清澈明亮，又如百靈鳥般甜蜜。女孩兒熱愛文學，心情好時總免不了要對藍天白雲感慨一番。她們喜歡聚集在一起討論瓊瑤筆下的陸小雙，曹雪芹筆下的林黛玉，這些淚美人經常讓女孩着迷。
閒來無事，女孩兒總愛往小商販那兒跑，看看那些精美而又不貴的小飾品。當她們看到喜歡的東西時更是愛不釋手。這時她們總會耐心地與小商販討價還價，終於買下來了，激動之情難以言表，她們總會小心翼翼收好自己的東西，無聊時又會拿出來細細欣賞。
女孩兒也愛在運動場上尋找快樂，在旁人眼中足球與籃球是男孩的專利，至於女孩子就該學會安安穩穩地走路做事。可女孩卻從沒有這樣認為，她們會在運動場上盡情地奔跑，任憑汗水從臉上往下淌。或許會有人在旁邊指指點點，可女孩兒從來不在乎，走自己的路讓別人説去，只要我活得快樂就好。
花季的年齡，充滿幻想，五彩繽紛，然而快樂公主也會遇到煩惱事。
一羣女孩兒正聚在一起，她們緊皺着眉頭，互相抱怨，一個個像泄了氣的皮球。物理考試女生全軍覆沒，老師還在課堂上説女生太死太笨，第一還得是男生，再看看那些男生趾高氣揚的樣子，心裏更不是滋味。
“哼!老師就只會門縫裏看人!”
“就是，五連冠男排為啥不行?”
女孩們心裏抱怨道，不過她們不會因此而放棄，痛定思痛，認真找出失敗的原因，總結教訓，相信勝利屬於自己!
“快拿鏡子來，我臉上又蹦出幾顆痘痘，我得把它們消滅在萌芽狀態。”一個女孩嚷道。的確，愛美是女孩兒的專利，怎能允許長痘痘呢。
“看那粉刺，一片片似雨點飄落，一點點如鮮花盛開，每天肆無忌憚地在我臉上張燈結綵，把我的五官裝點得一派節日景象，”另一位女孩頗有感慨道，“本來我以為把頭髮留長點就會把粉刺蓋住，沒想到一陣大風把頭髮吹得亂七八糟，真所謂‘春色滿園關不住’啊!”當看到不長痘痘的臉時，阿Q精神大放光彩：
粉刺帶來的苦難是我燦爛生活中不可缺少的調味品，粉刺是青春美麗的嘎嘣豆，是青春的音符。
女孩，你的生命是美麗的，你是上帝的寵兒，是上帝最傑出的作品。既然已經選擇來到這個世上，就應該活得漂亮，活得精彩。面對快樂盡情享受，面對煩惱也要勇敢面對。
美麗的花季，美麗的夢。瞧!那羣女孩兒----漂亮的女孩，快樂的女孩，豐富多彩的女孩。
花一樣的季節，詩一樣的夢。
