what is real beauty
yang lingyuan
篇96年湖南省第二届非英语专业学生英语演讲赛团体二等奖获奖者演讲辞中引正反两方面事例述真正美外表心观点方法值学鉴
it is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty everybody was born with a heart for beauty
today in chinawith the rising of our living standard people's requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes fashionable hair stylesthe decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks but it seems to meall
these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearanceor ratherthe outward beauty
in my opinionwe shouldn't only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty as we all knowso far as objects and animals are concernedthere is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned but to us humanbeings although the outward beauty really matters the inner beauty is much more important this was confirmed by a famous russian writer in words much like this a person is
not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely
here i'd like to quote two typical instances and i'm sure my dear friendsfrom them you'll find out what real beauty is
recently i learned from the radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer she is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the songdevotion of love not long agoshe was invited to zhejiang province to give performance the moment she was to appear on the stageshe suddenly asked for more reward worse stillafter her request was satisfied she didn't begin to sing at once insteadshe took her time to count all the money piece by piece thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour so when she at last showed up and started to sing devotion of lovea man rose up from his seat and shouted at heryou don't have any devotion of love you are not qualified to sing this song hearing this the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man at this time the whole audience burst into an uproar
how disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this it is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others
now i'm coming to another true story it's about a poor ordinary looking old woman she was a widow without any children living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps howevershe took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up every day she labored from morning till night in order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in schoolshe even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood she got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home
when asked why she chose to burden herself with so many childrenshe smiled and simply answeredohi love children and i like to have their company
though the old woman was poor materially she was full of affection and rich in spirit she was loved dearly by her children she was also highly appreciated by the local government and truly respected by people in her community
maybe you can't help wondering what makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary it is nothing else but her inner beauty her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding what a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer]
soto answer the question what is real beauty i declare definitelyit is the beauty lying in one's heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deedsthat isthe inner heauty
learn how to say no
we've all been taught that we should help people it is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others it may even win us favors in return however we must be realistic we can't say yes to every request if we did we would fail or go crazy for sure sometimes we simply don't have the time to help in this case we must know how to say no politely
when we need to say no here is one method we can try first we should tell the truth if we really can't do something we should just say so second we should remember to refuse requests politely we must communicate clearly but must also be sincere and sympathetic a true friend will understand finally we must not feel guilty about saying no sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do it can save ourselves and them a lot of trouble in short we cannot please everyone all the time refusing favors is a part of life
学说
教导说应该帮助应该做事样做会受欢迎甚会赢回报必须实际点答应求果做定会失败发疯时候确实没时间帮忙然必须知道礼貌说
需说时候办法试试首先应该说实话假真办某件事应该说第二应该记客气拒绝方求必须清楚表达态度必须真诚表示情真正朋友会谅解必说觉罪恶感时候拒绝应该做事
省许麻烦总言法直取悦拒绝请求生部分

i received a devastating blow to my selfconfidence in the first interview of my college years i applied to be a host in our student acting troupe and felt confident that i would be accepted but one of the panel members told me you seem inadequate and you are a little verticallychallenged my life has never been the same since i used bigger heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence but no matter how hard i tried to look the part there was still something missing
as president of english club i organized the rehearsal of snow white for an english party unfortunately we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf it had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in english suddenly all eyes turned to me and i knew i would have to be the dwarf to my great surprise and delight once on stage i was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use as the dwarf i was a big hit
yes each of us is only one among millions of others but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique cultivating our individuality will transform our lives making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures
a world deprived of diversity would be a bland and boring place the real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly but having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model cool boy or a flawless charming girl
given a choice i would rather be ugly than live in such a world i'd rather be a genuine dwarf accompanying a snow white than be a snow white among nothing but snow whites i would rather be myself i would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more diverse universe please be yourself

专家点评文题突出见寓意深刻语言朴实然表达情感强烈篇演讲佳作
in my 18 years of life there have been many things university days are the best part of them i can never forget the days when i stepped into my university i was impressed by its gardenlike campus its enthusiastic students and especially its learning atmosphere i at once fell in love with it
after the arduous military training i get absolutely absorbed in my studies the classes given by the teachers are excellent they provide us with information not only from our textbooks but from many other sources as well they easily arouse my insatiable desire to take in as much as i can
frankly speaking at first i had some difficulty following the teachers however through my own efforts and thanks to my teachers' guidance i made remarkable progress now i've benefited a lot from lectures and many other academic reports
learning is a long process i'll keep exploring in the treasure house of knowledge to enrich myself this summer i got out of the ivory tower and entered the real world a publishing house offered me a parttime job in compilation and revision
at the beginning i was belittled by my colleagues but they were really surprised when i translated seven english articles over 5000 words on only one day gradually they began to look at me with respectful eyes in their opinion i turned out to be a useful and trustworthy colleague
i also realize that only those who bring happiness for others can be truly happy so i often take part in activities concerning public welfare i once went to a barren mountain village with my classmates we taught the kids there who could not afford school while showing them how broad and how civilized the outer world is i was deeply touched by their eagerness to learn their honesty and their purity i couldn't control my tears on the day when we left the precious experience with the poor kids made me aware of the responsibility on the shoulders of us future teachers
besides study and social practice there are entertainments as well i do body building every day hoping to keep healthy and energetic we also write a play and put it on in our spare time
campus life is the most splendid time but different people have different choices the majority of students cherish their beautiful season and cherish the hope that one day they'll become outstanding but there are indeed some students still under ignorance they gather together for eating drinking or playing cards they're busy in searching for a girlfriend or a boyfriend they forget completely about their mission as college students and the hope of their motherland
finally i do hope everybody can try their best to become a worthy citizen of the country i do hope everybody can become the backbone of our nation and make great contributions to society
