Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Today I’m very glad to be here with you to share my stories and opinions about reading. I love reading from the bottom of my heart. And I do learn a lot from books. I know the wonderful stories of great heroes in history, secrets of nature, mysteries of UFO and our universe. To me , books are like a faithful friend, always around me , giving me enjoyment and wisdom.
I remember when I was in primary school, ten or eleven years old, my father borrowed some books from the library in his school. Those were among the greatest works of the world, including Abrabian Nights、The legend of Deification, Journey to the West, and The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. These books were all written in ancient Chinese characters but I tried to read the heavy books and were deeply attracted. From then on, I spared every minute to read whatever I could get. Whenever I got a new book, I kept reading until I finished it despite time and place. I read books even in class or just a few minutes before the exams. In my mind, there is always an unforgettable scene: lying in bed, nervous but excited, my friend and I read a book together in the weak light of a flashlight , with a quilt on us, in order not to be blamed by parents. All my classmates thought I was crazy and gave me a nickname “bookworm”. So you can understand why I got my eyes shortsighted.
Till now, I still like reading as I used to. And I’m very pleased to see that my ten-year-old son loves reading just like me. I have bought him many books. Whenever you come into my home, you can find books in every corner. But the place where my son and I enjoy reading most is in the toilet. So it often happens in the morning: one is in the toilet reading something comfortably, while another walking outside , shouting. For my age, I like to read magazines or short stories to get relaxation as well as inspiration.
Today we live in a world of prosperity. Never before have we faced so many temptation from the outside world. Never before have we had so many chances to enjoy our lives. We drive rather than walking; we go online to chat with people we’ve never met before instead of talking to friends around us. But there’s always something that cannot be replaced and forgotten., such as books. So I will allow myself to continue the journey in the ocean of books until the very end of my life.
Finally, I’d like to end my speech with a great philosopher, writer and thinker, Francis Bacon’s famous saying: Reading makes a full man. Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability.
Thank you very much.
女士们,先生们,早上好。今天我很高兴在这里与你分享我的故事,关于阅读意见。我喜欢阅读从我的心底。而我也从书本中学习很多。我知道在历史上伟大的英雄,自然秘密,我们的宇宙奥秘和不明飞行物的精彩故事。对我来说,书像一个忠实的朋友,总是围绕着我,给我的享受和智慧。
我记得当我在小学,10或11岁的时候,我父亲在他借用了学校图书馆的书籍。这些都是在世界最伟大的作品,包括Abrabian夜,在神化,传说西方之旅,和三国演义。这些书都是写在古老的汉字,但我试图读出沉重的书籍,被深深吸引。从此,我每分钟的时间读完不遗余力我能得到什么。每当我得到一本新书,我一直在读书,直到我完成了,尽管它的时间和地点。甚至在课堂上我读到或只是在考试前几分钟的书籍。在我心目中,始终有一个令人难忘的一幕:在床上,紧张而兴奋,我的朋友说谎,我读了书一起在手电筒微弱的光与我们的被子上,为了不被父母责备。我所有的同学以为我疯了,给了我一个绰号“书呆子”。所以你可以理解为什么我得到了我的眼睛近视。
直到现在,我仍然喜欢读书,因为我习惯了。 ,我很高兴地看到,我十年岁的儿子和我一样喜欢阅读。我给他买了很多书。每当你走进我家来,你可以找到的每一个角落的书籍。但我儿子的地方,我最喜欢阅读的厕所。因此,它常常发生在早晨:一个是在读点轻松的厕所,而另一个走到外面,大叫。对于我这个年龄,我喜欢看杂志或短篇故事中得到放松和灵感。
今天,我们生活在一个繁荣的世界。以前我们从未面临着来自外部世界如此多的诱惑。我们从未有过这么多的机会,享受生活。我们驱动器而不是走,我们去网上聊天,我们从来没有交谈之前,我们周围的朋友,而不是认识的人。但总有一些不可替代的,被遗忘。,如书籍。所以,我会允许自己继续下去,直到我生命的最后一刻,在书海之旅。
最后,我想结束我的一个伟大的哲学家,文学家和思想家,培根的一句名言演讲:读书使人充实。读书足以怡情,足以博彩,足以长才。
非常感谢。
