毕业英语演讲稿1

  Faculty, family, friends, and fellow graduates, good evening.

  I am honored to address you tonight. On behalf of the graduating masters and doctoral students of Washington University's School of Engineering and Applied Science, I would like to thank all the parents, spouses, families, and friends who encouraged and supported us as we worked towards our graduate degrees. I would especially like to thank my own family, eight members of which are in the audience today. I would also like to thank all of the department secretaries and other engineering school staff members who always seemed to be there when confused graduate students needed help. And finally I would like to thank the Washington University faculty members who served as our instructors, mentors, and friends.

  As I think back on the seven-and-a-half years I spent at Washington University, my mind is filled with memories, happy, sad, frustrating, and even humorous.

  Tonight I would like to share with you some of the memories that I take with me as I leave Washington University.

  I take with me the memory of my office on the fourth floor of Lopata Hall - the room at the end of the hallway that was too hot in summer, too cold in winter, and always too far away from the women's restroom. The window was my office's best feature. Were it not for the physics building across the way, it would have afforded me a clear view of the arch. But instead I got a view of the roof of the physics building. I also had a view of one corner of the roof of Urbauer Hall, which seemed to be a favorite perch for various species of birds who alternately won perching rights for several weeks at a time. And I had a nice view of the physics courtyard, noteworthy as a good place for watching people run their dogs. It's amazing how fascinating these views became the longer I worked on my dissertation. But my favorite view was of a nearby oak tree. From my fourth-floor vantage point I had a rather intimate view of the tree and the various birds and squirrels that inhabit it. Occasionally a bird would land on my window sill, which usually had the effect of startling both of us.

  I take with me the memory of two young professors who passed away while I was a graduate student. Anne Johnstone, the only female professor from whom I took a course in the engineering school, and Bob Durr, a political science professor and a member of my dissertation committee, both lost brave battles with cancer. I remember them fondly.

  I take with me the memory of failing the first exam in one of the first engineering courses I took as an undergraduate. I remember thinking the course was just too hard for me and that I would never be able to pass it. So I went to talk to the professor, ready to drop the class. And he told me not to give up, he told me I could succeed in his class. For reasons that seemed completely ludicrous at the time, he said he had faith in me. And after that my grades in the class slowly improved, and I ended the semester with an A on the final exam. I remember how motivational it was to know that someone believed in me.

  I take with me memories of the midwestern friendliness that so surprised me when I arrived in St. Louis 8 years ago. Since moving to New Jersey, I am sad to say, nobody has asked me where I went to high school.

  I take with me the memory of the short-lived computer science graduate student social committee lunches. The idea was that groups of CS grad students were supposed to take turns cooking a monthly lunch. But after one grad student prepared a pot of chicken that poisoned almost the entire CS grad student population and one unlucky faculty member in one fell swoop, there wasn't much enthusiasm for having more lunches.

  I take with me the memory of a more successful graduate student effort, the establishment of the Association of Graduate Engineering Students, known as AGES. Started by a handful of engineering graduate students because we needed a way to elect representatives to a campus-wide graduate student government, AGES soon grew into an organization that now sponsors a wide variety of activities and has been instrumental in addressing a number of engineering graduate student concerns.

  I take with me the memory of an Engineering and Policy department that once had flourishing programs for full-time undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students.

  I take with me memories of the 1992 U.S. Presidential debate. Eager to get involved in all the excitement I volunteered to help wherever needed. I remember spending several days in the makeshift debate HQ giving out-of-town reporters directions to the athletic complex. I remember being thrilled to get assigned the job of collecting film from the photographers in the debate hall during the debate. And I remember the disappointment of drawing the shortest straw among the student volunteers and being the one who had to take the film out of the debate hall and down to the dark room five minutes into the debate - with no chance to re-enter the debate hall after I left.

  I take with me memories of university holidays which never seemed to apply to graduate students. I remember spending many a fall break and President's Day holiday with my fellow grad students in all day meetings brought to us by the computer science department.

  I take with me memories of exams that seemed designed more to test endurance and perseverance than mastery of the subject matter. I managed to escape taking any classes that featured infamous 24-hour-take-home exams, but remember the suffering of my less fortunate colleagues. And what doctoral student could forget the pain and suffering one must endure to survive the qualifying exams?

  I take with me the memory of the seven-minute rule, which always seemed to be an acceptable excuse for being ten minutes late for anything on campus, but which doesn't seem to apply anywhere else I go.

  I take with me the memory of Friday afternoon ACM happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. Over the several years that I attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.

  I take with me memories of purple parking permits, the West Campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on Delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in Lopata Hall, The Greenway Talk, division III basketball, and trying to convince Dean Russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.

  Finally, I would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. What would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? Anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of Lake Forest College by Theodore Seuss Geisel, better known to the world as Dr. Seuss - Here's how it goes:

  My uncle ordered popovers

  from the restaurant's bill of fare.

  And when they were served,

  he regarded them

  with a penetrating stare . . .

  Then he spoke great Words of Wisdom

  as he sat there on that chair:

  "To eat these things,"

  said my uncle,

  "you must excercise great care.

  You may swallow down what's solid . . .

  BUT . . .

  you must spit out the air!"

  And . . .

  as you partake of the world's bill of fare,

  that's darned good advice to follow.

  Do a lot of spitting out the hot air.

  And be careful what you swallow.

毕业英语演讲稿2

  尊敬的领导、老师,亲爱的同学们:

  下午好!这是一场鼓舞士气、催人奋进的大会,它将使我们振作精神,扬起理想的风帆,向着人生的第一个目标启航。

  有人说:不经历初三是一种遗憾,因为它在一定程度上决定了今后的人生方向!六年小学,三年初中,九年来的学习生涯,我们走过来了。

  面对即将到来的中考,或许有的同学正在因为自己成绩不理想而彷徨,或许有的同学会因为时间的短暂而叹息,或许有的同学不以为然逍遥的数着日子。可是我们是否曾想过我们的父母正为即将到来的中考而心急如焚;我们的老师正在为即将到来的中考而承受着巨大的.压力,我们的竞争者正在秣马厉兵,跃跃欲试。中考,容不得我们有迟疑,有停滞,我们必须为了梦想而战。

  这里我想提出一些怎样学好英语的几点建议:

  对一些初学英语的学生来说,学英语比登山还难。他们的话把学英语比作一项艰苦的劳动了,其实不然,如果你喜欢英语并掌握了学英语的方法和技巧,你就会把学英语当一种乐趣。

  练好基本功是学好英语的必要条件,没有扎实的英语基础,就谈不上继续学习,更谈不上有所成就。要想基本功扎实,必须全神贯注地认真听讲,上好每一节课,提高课堂效率,脚踏实地、一步一个脚印地,做到以下“五到”:

  一、“心到”。在课堂上应聚精会神,一刻也不能懈怠,大脑要始终处于积极状态,思维要活跃、思路要开阔,心随老师走,听懂每一句话,抓住每一个环节,理解每一个知识点,多联想、多思考,做到心领神会。

  二、“手到”。学英语,一定要做课堂笔记。因为人的记忆力是有限的,人不可能都过目不忘,记忆本身就是不断与遗忘作斗争的过程。常言说,“好脑筋不如烂笔头”。老师讲的知识可能在课堂上记住了,可是过了一段时间,就会忘记,所以,做好笔记很有必要。英语知识也是一点点积累起来的,学到的每一个单词、词组以及句型结构,都记在笔记本上,甚至是书的空白处或字里行间,这对以后的复习巩固都是非常方便的。

  三、“耳到”。在课堂上,认真听讲是十分必要的,不但要专心听老师对知识

  的讲解,而且要认真听老师说英语的语音、语调、重音、连读、失去爆破、断句等发音要领,以便培养自己纯正地道的英语口语。听见听懂老师传授的每一个知识点,在头脑里形成反馈以帮助记忆;理解领会老师提出的问题,以便迅速作答,对比同学对问题的回答,以加深对问题的理解而取别人之长补自己之短。

  四、“眼到”。在认真听讲的同时,还要双眼紧随老师观察老师的动作、口形、表情、板书、绘图、教具展示等。大脑里形成的视觉信息和听觉信息相结合,印象就会更加深刻。

  五、“口到”。英语是一门语言,不张嘴不动口是学不好的,同学们最大的毛病是读书不出声,害羞不敢张嘴。尤其是早读课,起始年级时,学生对英语课有新鲜感,积极性比较高,早读课是“书声琅琅”。逐渐地,到了高年级,他们就只用眼看、手写。早读课都快变成“鸦雀无声”的书写自习课了。同学们只是用眼看或默读,这样就只有视觉信息,而没有听觉信息在大脑里的反馈,当然记忆也不会太深刻,口部肌肉也得不到锻炼,也就很难练就一口纯正的英语。这样下去直接影响着早读的效果,也就不能有效地促进英语的学习、巩固和提高。这也是部分学生掉队、放弃学习英语的关键环节,

  同学们讨厌背书有以下正当理由:第一、课文很难背;第二,背完就忘;第三、总是没时间背;第四、背完对考试帮助不大。这些理由都是充分的!然而这些问题都是由于没有良好的学习方式和习惯造成的。在中国学习语言最好的、最先进的方法就是多读:第一,书读百遍,其意自见。第二,熟读唐诗三百首,不会作诗也会吟。第三,读书破万卷,下笔如有神。我相信,大家都知道这些名言,但是没有几个人能做到!所以,成功的人永远是少数!

  为什么完形填空难、阅读难、作文难,就是因为你从来没有语感!语感就等于文章朗读和背诵的遍数!大量背诵文章能提高你的语感,一段时间积累下来,你不再需要专门去记忆单词、语法规则,考试时自然势如破竹,又快又好!而且背诵文章让写作流畅起来,你能脱口而出大量的文章,就能随手写出漂亮的文章,口头能力和笔头能力是相互促进、相得益彰的。大量地背诵短小实用的文章是提高英语写作水平的捷径!

  所以,要充分利用早晨头脑清醒的时间,大声朗读;课堂上要勇跃回答老师提问、积极参与同学间讨论和辩论,课下对不清楚的问题及时提出,要克服害羞

  心理,不耻下问。对学过的课文要多读、勤读、苦读,一些精典文章最好能背得滚爪烂熟。除了对课本中的范文要细读精读之外,还要多看些适合中学生的课外读物,既可增长知识,又能开阔视野,也可以提高阅读水平。

  学习英语,无论如何,勤奋是不可少的,它是一个日积月累的渐进过程,是没有任何捷径可走的,也没有所谓“速成”的灵丹妙方。任何成功的获得都要靠自己的努力,要勤勤恳恳、兢兢业业、一步一个脚印地学习,端正态度,认真对待学习中的挫折和失败。失败并不可怕,可怕的是对自己丧失信心而一蹶不振。对考试的失败,冷静分析,认真思考,只要对胜利充满信心,善于总结经验教训,不断努力,不断追求,胜利一定是属于你们的。

  从现在开始,给自己订个计划和目标。每天强制性进行,养成学习英语的习惯。如果一个人的自觉性不够,可以找一个学习伙伴相互监督、共同进步。

  总之,如果你热情、有效地去学英语,你也会成为一名英语达人。

  让我们大家一起同心同德,齐心协力,把我们的复习备考工作做到最有效,共创20xx年我镇中考的新辉煌!

  谢谢大家!
