今天我在这里与你分享我的想法的成功很高兴。什么是成功？这是每个人都渴望有时会相当简单。赢得一场比赛是成功；在考试中得到高分是成功；交一个新朋友是成功；甚至我现在standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.站在这里给我的发言也不知是成功的。

他被认为是成功的。最明显的特点是金钱，地位高和豪华的生活。所以大多数人认为的成功所做的一切都是为了这个目的。但问题是这是否是真正的成功。我们都知道，总会有更多的钱，在我们面前更高的位置和更好的条件。如果我们继续追逐他们，哪里是尽头？我们最后会满足吗？因此，我们可以看到，要获得真正的成功，我们必须需要的东西在里面，这是实现

英语五分钟演讲 篇2
针对上述情况, 笔者在本学期大胆尝试了在课前进行5分钟小演讲的活动。通过小演讲活动, 学生的兴趣得到了培养, 信心得到了增强, 技能得到了提升, 英语水平显著提高。具体做法如下:
首先, 我从班中选出英语水平较好的十几名学生, 给他们排好序, 并提前告知演讲时间, 以便于学生做好心理准备, 并保证有充足的时间准备演讲材料。这样做, 学生学习的主动性和积极性明显提高。
其次, 关于演讲内容, 教师不应做太多的限制, 只要是励志、阳光、传递正能量的都可以。
学生可以自由谈论学校小环境中关于同学或教师的趣闻、八卦, 也可以谈论大环境中国家乃至世界正在发生的关于政治、经济、军事、科学等各种话题。这样, 学生就能根据自己的兴趣进行选题, 实施起来就会少很多顾虑, 但必须强调, 选题之后必须用自己的语言组织内容进行演讲。
再次, 关于演讲形式, 学生可以借鉴所学经典句型或借题发挥, 可以随心所欲挑选话题, 但绝不容许背诵短文故事。
按照以上原则, 我组织学生开始实施, 在第一轮活动结束后, 效果竟大大超出了我的预料———刚开始时, 学生表现得十分紧张, 站在讲台上甚至不敢正视自己的同学, 声音也比较低, 体态很不自然, 与同学之间没有互动, 可以看出, 演讲的学生只盼能尽快结束演讲。显然, 一开始, 演讲变成了学生的负担, 变成了干巴巴的背诵材料, 在学生的认知里, 它是一项任务。但随着活动的进一步开展, 在更多的学生尝试后, 慢慢地, 情况开始好转, 后面的学生从前者身上看到不足后, 便不再满足于类似的演讲。有几个思维灵活且较能驾驭语言的学生开始尝试着表达自己的感受, 于是, 演讲所用的语言变得生动起来, 演讲者的表情也越来越丰富, 与同学之间的互动活动也有了, 甚至增加了有意而为之的煽情, 演讲内容开始升华。很显然, 学生的演讲不再是简单地讲述一个小故事, 而是试着从故事中升华出关乎人生的哲学。
在坚持开展演讲活动的过程中, 我一直鼓励学生大胆尝试, 并诚恳地表扬他们在课堂中的优异表现。学生从中受到鼓舞, 深信自己的能力超乎想象, 话题开始广泛起来, 有夸父逐日故事后的热爱人民、为人民呕心沥血的体悟;有守株待兔故事后提炼出来的NO pains, no gains的感悟;有小男孩与苹果树故事后These trees are like our parents.They devote their life to us的领悟;有大谈kindness之后If all of us are kind, our school will be better.If we are all kind, our country will be stronger.If we are all kind, the world will be more peaceful.的激情迸发;还有辩证看待失败与成功关系后的Failure is the mother of success.的顿悟;更令我们感动的是关于尼泊尔地震之后一个同学的即兴演讲:Earthquake is terrible, which can destroy our buildings and can take away our lovers, but human being can’t be defeated.What we should do is to give them a hand when they are in trouble....每一次倾听, 我的内心都能或多或少地被触动。
不知不觉间, 学生已经学会关心他人, 慢慢成长并成熟起来。他们不断尝试着, 开始殷切盼望着能在英语课堂上表达自己的情感, 重视并珍惜自己登台的机会。有时, 会有学生拿着文章主动找我面批辅导, 我便针对句子的语法错误给予相应的指导, 而对于学生的主导观点则不过问, 坚持尊重学生的观点, 不限制学生的思想 (只要不是过于偏激的) , 给予学生畅所欲言的权利。
值得注意的是, 课前五分钟的小演讲活动对于学生的写作技能也有很大的帮助。一方面, 由于演讲话题比较广泛, 学生必定会遇到很多不熟悉的单词, 从而促使其通过各种途径 (如词典、互联网) 去解决, 这无形中极大地扩大了学生的词汇量;另一方面, 面对一些难度较大的高级词汇时, 即使演讲者自身明确其意义, 但当同学们听得一脸茫然时, 他就会试着用简单的英语词汇做进一步的解释, 这又是另一种能力的培养。每一场演讲活动过后, 我都会针对本次演讲的内容做深度的挖掘, 并提出针对性的问题, 如What did he/she talk about?What are their suggestions?What’s your opinion about it?If you were the character, what would you do?等。因为听后要回答问题, 所以学生都听得非常认真, 甚至在听后能做简单的复述, 这对提高学生的英语水平有很大的帮助。一段时间后, 学生不再畏惧, 不再羞于启齿, 且已经习惯了用英语思维、用英语表达和用英语交流的方式, 英语课成了名副其实的语言应用课。
挖掘“课前五分钟”演讲的潜能 篇3
关键词：“课前五分钟”；演讲；鼓励；因势利导
语文教学就是培养听、说、读、写能力的活动。经过本人多年来的教育实践总结，发现“满堂灌”不足取，“课前五分钟”演讲确实能让“听”“说”的效果事半功倍，反过来又能促进“读”“写”能力的提高。正所谓“磨刀不误砍柴工”！
“课前五分钟”是指语文教师在上正课前留五分钟时间，让学生上台演讲与语文课有关的观点和内容，也可以是一周以来有意义的见闻和感受。每节课利用五分钟时间安排1～2名学生上讲台发言，师生及时简要点评，及时记录精彩语段，定期评出“最佳组合”和“演讲之星”，就会逐渐增强全班学生学习语文的兴趣。
首先，要积极准备，贵在坚持。教师要反复要求学生端正态度，提高认识，上台前精心准备，认真查资料，认真选择话题，内容健康向上，贴近生活，紧扣实际，真正表现出自我的风格和水平。“课前五分钟”训练活动还要持之以恒，一步一个脚印地训练，只有日积月累，才能循序渐进地提高自身的语文素质。
其次，要鼓励为主，因势利导。“课前五分钟”既要充分调动学生的参与积极性，又要培养学生自主思考的能力，让他们自行确定所要演讲的内容，自己动手查资料，自由发挥，让学生真正起到主体作用。教师要善于发现学生的闪光点，巧妙地给予鼓励，营造一种宽松和谐的课堂气氛，目的是使“课前五分钟”更切合学生的实际，培养其独立学习的能力，发挥各自的专长。而因势利导则是保证他们的独立学习和实践能沿着正确的方向前进，培养科学的、健康的思想观和人生观。
最后，要把握全局，由点及面。“课前五分钟”要面向全体学生，让每个学生都有平等参与锻炼的机会，进而形成良好的循环习惯，既有利于活动的继续开展，也有利于语文水平的整体提高。假如只面向少数水平高的学生，就会使其他大部分学生丧失锻炼提高的机会。久而久之，“课前五分钟”就会枯燥乏味，失去坚持下去的兴趣。而在全体学生参与活动的前提下，可以从中发现人才，培养良好的班风士气，培养竞争意识，形成团结向上的学习氛围。
经过10多年的尝试，我的学生的确感到了语文课前演讲的功效。演讲是人类交流思想、阐述观点、传播信息的重要手段，也是演讲者展示自我、推销自我的一种很好的方式。语文“课前五分钟演讲”虽然仅是语文教学训练的一个小措施，但小小的“星火”可成“燎原之势”。
英语演讲稿五分钟 篇4
I asked this question to my young students when teaching English this winter. What were their answers?
“I would watch television!” the first answer. “I would play with the computer!” the second one. “I would play with computer TOO.” The girl finished her sentence perfectly with a serious smile. Indeed how cute and innocent that smile was, but how seriously my heart was hurt. I was too frightened to listen to more answers like that.
Ten years ago, at their age, I had a different answer: I would spend the last day of my life gazing at the face of my dear grandmother until I inscribed every detail of it onto my mind.
When grandmother was getting old and weak, my family bought her a telephone so I could save time and the trouble of traveling to her home by making phone calls instead. Later we bought her a television so she could watch modern dramas by herself. Then grandma must have been, we assumed, very contented and happy.
But I never really knew how grandma felt. She silently passed away without a word one night. When I heard about her death, a chilling pain pierced my empty heart. The pain grew even sharper as I tried to remember in detail exactly how grandma looked and I failed completely! How could I remember? I had not visited her for ages—it seemed like a century! My memories of her dissolved into thin air and leaked away like water.
Even though I have a telephone, can she hear me now?
Even though I might be on television, can she see me now?
Even though I have modern telecommunications, can she still communicate with me now?
With all these “tele”s, I was powerless.
Don’t people just love the word of “tele”, which means far away. Indeed this is how modern technology has changed our world. But please don’t forget this other word with “tele”: telepathy: which refers to human beings’ inborn ability to connect to our loved ones. Our minds are supposed to read each other’s minds; our hearts are supposed to feel each other’s hearts — and fulfill these without any forms of tool!
But the moment I desperately struggled to remember grandmother’s face, the telepathy between her and me had shut down forever. With the help of modern technology, I killed our telepathy.
This shall never happen again! The “tele”s are great inventions. But “telepathy” gives them the warmth of a human face. Let’s harness the power of television to excite our kids to develop their telepathy with nature… so that they can read the secret language of flowers. Let’s make the telephone lines provoke us to preserve our telepathy with each other, so we can connect in a warm and feeling way. Let technology keep our “telepathy” ALIVE! We need to wake up and make this happen.
I told my grandma’s story to those young kids that day. They got very quiet. They asked me for a second chance to answer the question. They had come to a new understanding – that very moment they had made to me and to our future together, a dear promise.

i believe in our future honorable judges, fellow students: good afternoon!recently, ther is a heated debate in our society.the college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places.but will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? will we be able to better the lives of others? will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country? the cynics say the college students are the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.the cynics say we care for nothing other than grades;and we neglect the need for character cultivation.but again, the cynics are wrong.we care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth.last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.as college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives.we all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country.i believe in all my fellow classmates.though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish.i believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities.we are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place.i believe in our future.我对未来充满信心
尊敬的评委，各位同学：
下午好！
最近，社会上有一场很激烈的争论。大学生是一种稀有特权的享有者，在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是，我们能面对挑战而无所畏惧吗？我们能够改善他人的生活吗？我们能够承担建设祖国未来的重任吗？
怀疑论者说大学生是被宠坏的一代，一丁点挫折都受不了。但是他们错了，我所看到的大学生正在努力的学习独立生活。我们互相帮助打扫卫生，一起上街砍价购物，一起参加兼职工作来赚零花钱。
怀疑论者说我们除了成绩什么都不关心，从而忽略了性格的培养。但是，他们又错了。我们彼此关心，我们向往自由，我们珍惜公正，我们追求真理。上个星期，很多我的同学去验血，为了给患血癌的孩子贡献自己的力量。
作为大学生，我们是处在人生分水岭的青年。我们都面临一个重要的选择：怀疑人生还是相信自己，每一种都会给我们的人生带来重大的影响，甚至影响我们祖国的未来。我相信我们的同学们，虽然我们依然缺乏经验，甚至有些志气，但是我相信我们有勇气和自信来面对生活的挑战并承担我们的责任。我们正努力准备接受新的任务，用我们所学习的知识将世界变得更美好。我对我们的未来充满信心。大学生英语演讲稿17 change the ingredients of your life

change the ingredients of your life if kindness is added to a strange you will have a friend;but if hostility is added, you will have an enemy.if love is added to a pile of red bricks you will have a home, but if hatred is add to those bricks , you will have an concentration camp.so my dear friend, if faith, hope, love, endurance are added to your life, you will find the confidence to conquer your limitation and embrace new challenges.and hopefully with my speech included, you will have a fantastic speech contest.改变生活的味道
这是一杯白开水，平淡无味，对吧？可是加上点糖呢，他尝起来会有甜味；如果加的是苏打水，味道就会变苦。人生同样如此——个中滋味在于我们的选择。
善待他人，你会拥有朋友；但如果充满恶意，则会多个敌人。将爱赋予一堆红砖，你会拥有一个家；用仇恨来浇铸这堆红砖，就会铸成一座集中营。
因此亲爱的朋友们，不要抱怨人生乏味，世间无望。不喜欢生活的味道，那就换一换生活的调料吧！
三年前，我重达100多公斤，这给我带来了很多尴尬和挫折：体育课老是不及格，总被女孩们嘲笑，更不敢当众发表意见。幸而由于祖母的鼓励，我不在消极人生，而是充满自信。她曾经说过：“孩子，如果体形无法改变，为什么不把它看做自己独特的风格呢？” 我开始这样来审视人生，通过改变生活的视角，我信心大增地去改变我的人生，很快就发现一个崭新的世界。
朋友们，将信念，希望，爱意和忍性溶入生命，你就会找到自信，克服缺点，迎接人生新的挑战。最后我的演讲包括在内，希望你会看到一场精彩的演讲比赛。

篇一
good morning, ladies and gentlemen.id like to share my teaching dream with you.but before that, i want to say something about the beginning of this dream.in march this year, three teachers from australia came to our school.during the meeting, we exchanged a lot about education.i found that though we have almost the same teaching philosophy, we have different routines.what impressed me most was that their schools end at 3:00 in the afternoon and have no night classes.i cant tell which kind of routine is better, but the sharp contrast made me think about a better education.the following is a dreamy school in my mind, in which there is no pressure but pleasure.in this school, the buildings are well designed, close to nature.in the morning, children can read while enjoying the beautiful sunrise.in the evening, they can exercise by the lake reflecting the amazing sunset.in the spring, they can go to the wild, lie on the lawn, and watch the kite flying in the blue sky.in the summer, they can go to the forest, live in a cabin, and listen to the rhythm of the rain....students are free but polite and they respect each other.they can leave at 4:00 every afternoon, or perhaps earlier.they have the freedom to organize time.they can go to the library, go to the lab, the computer rooms or the playground.theyre self-motivated and have a strong thirst for knowledge.and there are no frequent exams and rankings.students wont be forced to wear uniforms everyday, and there is no required hair style.everyday is so colorful that they are looking forward to the next day when going to bed at night,every teacher in this school can give a course as they like.there is no tedious rating, no scraps of quantitative management and no rigid standard.teachers can fully display their personality in class, and they feel very happy and content to teach.every morning, on thoughts of giving lessons, they are excited.after class, they are delighted , with smiles on their faces.some experts, scholars and masters are also visiting teachers in this school.yang zhenning
can give physics classes for a day.yi zhongtian opens lectures on chinese culture for a week.speaking of music, we can ask wang lihong to give music lectures, just as he did in oxford university.if necessary, we can also invite david beckham to speak something about the world cup...the principal of the school focuses on education rather than waste time in endless meetings and social activities.teachers wages are not high but enough to live comfortably.there are no other things to do except to teach.there are no paper requirements, no titles and no ranks because they dont need to be judged by those things.almost every teacher is a well-known scholar and master in a particular field.a language teacher may be a writer at the same time.a math teacher may try to overcome a world-class guess.a physics teacher can win invention awards and a music teacher may return from an international music competition again.in short, in this school, the principal is satisfied, the teachers are happy and the students are joyful.thats my dream.篇二
during his presidency, bill clinton seized important opportunities on issues from welfare to free trade.he was a tireless champion of peace in the middle east.he used american power in the balkans to confront aggression and halt ethnic cleansing.and in
all his actions and decisions, the american people sensed a deep empathy for the poor and the powerless.shortly before leaving office, president clinton said, “christ admonished us that our lives will be judged by how we do unto the least of our neighbors.” throughout his career, bill clinton has done his best to live up to that standard.and americans respect him for it.at every stage of his remarkable life, president clinton has made and kept countless friends, who share in the joy of this day.and three people in particular have the largest part in this remarkable story.one day more than 30 years ago, inside the yale law library, a fellow student walked over to bill clinton and said, “if youre going to keep staring at me, and im going to keep staring back, we ought to at least know each others name.mines hillary rodham.what is yours?”that was a good day for both of them, and the beginning of a partnership unique in american history.so today, we honor the former first lady of arkansas, the former first lady of america, the united states senator from new york, senator hillary rodham clinton.perhaps the clintons greatest achievement is their daughter, who moved into the white house as a young girl, and left as an accomplished young lady.its not easy to be a teenager in the white house, but its a lot easier when you have a loving mother and a loving
father that chelsea clinton had.this magnificent presidential library, and the american life it celebrates, would not have been possible without the love and sacrifice of a special lady.among his heroes, president clinton always includes his mother, virginia kelley, “a working woman and a widow.” virginia was there when her son took the oath of office, and we know that she would be incredibly proud of this day.the story that began in a little house on hervey street in hope, arkansas is the kind of story that inspires people from every background, all over america.in this great nation, it is always possible for a child to go as far as their talent and vision can take them.visitors to this place will be reminded of the great promise of our country, and the dreams that came true in the life of our 42nd president.the william j.clinton presidential library is a gift to the future by a man who always believed in the future.and today, we thank him for loving and serving america.篇三
ladies and gentlemen, this is joe biden, im filling in for president obama, while he addresses the nato summit in wales.when the president and i took office in january of XX, this nation was in the midst of the greatest economic crisis since the great depression.our economy had plummeted1 at a rate of 8% in a single
quarter-part of the fastest economic decline any time in the last half century.millions of families were falling underwater on their homes and threatened with foreclosure.the iconic american automobile2 industry was under siege.but yesterdays jobs report was another reminder3 of how far weve come.weve had 54 straight months of job creation.and thats the longest streak4 of uninterrupted job growth in the united states history.weve gone from losing 9 million jobs during the financial crisis to creating 10 million jobs.weve reduced the unemployment rate from 10% in october of XX to 6.1% today.and for the first time since the 1990s, american manufacturing is steadily5 adding jobs-over 700,000 since XX.and surveys of both american and foreign business leaders confirm that america once again is viewed as the best place in the world to build and invest.thats all good news.but an awful lot of middle class americans are still not feeling the effects of this recovery.since the year XX, gross domestic product-our gdp-has risen by 25%.and productivity in america is up by 30%.but middle class wages during that same time period have gone up by only fourteen cents.folks, its long past time to cut the middle class back into the
deal, so they can benefit from the economic growth they helped create.folks, there used to be a bargain in this country supported by democrats6 and republicans, business and labor7.the bargain was simple.if an employee contributed to the growth and profitability of the company, they got to share in the profits and the benefits as well.thats what built the middle class.its time to restore the bargain, to deal the middle class back in.because, folks, when the middle class does well, everybody does well-the wealthy get wealthier and the poor have a way up.you know, the middle class is not a number.its a value set.it means being able to own your home;raise your children in a safe neighborhood;send them to a good school where if they do well they can qualify to go to college and if they get accepted youd be able to find a way to be able to send them to college.and in the meantime, if your parents need help, being able to take care of them, and hope to put aside enough money so that your children will not have to take care of you.猜你感兴趣：
英语五分钟演讲 篇7
关键词：职高英语,课前演讲,实践,思考
具备一定的英语应用能力已成为21世纪国民的基本要求, 对于以培养学生实用技能为主的职高学校来说尤其重要, 提升学生的英语听说能力已成为职业高中英语教学的重要内容之一。然而, 职高学生普遍学习自觉性差、学习能力有限, 英语基础薄弱、口语表达能力更是欠缺。那么, 如何能够在有限的课堂时间里提高学生英语听说方面的能力, 又不至于影响读写方面的训练效果呢?经过尝试, 笔者认为, 实施英语课前三分钟演讲不失为一种有效的方法。
一、选取适当的演讲主题
因为是Free Talk, 最明显的问题是演讲主题的重复, 缺少创新, 从而不利于激发学生的兴趣和拓展新的知识面。于是, 笔者想到以下几点建议:
1. 结合教学内容选取主题
中职教材基础模块1 Unit 5 Keeping Fit, 可建议学生就How to Keep Fit这一主题进行演讲;而Unit 10 Famous People, 则可选定A Famous People I like Best的主题, 这样既能确保选材的广泛性, 同时又把书本内容和演讲主题有机地结合起来, 一方面锻炼了演讲才能, 另一方面又达到巩固书本知识的目的。
2. 根据生活实际选取主题
开学时让学生描述自己丰富的假期生活, 学校举办运动会则谈论对运动的认识和擅长的运动项目。在清明, 端午, 中秋等传统节日时, 让学生介绍节日的特色, 帮助学生更好地了解中国的传统文化;在西方感恩节时, 让学生对“I’d like to say thanks to….”这一主题进行演讲, 以表达自己对家人、老师、同学和朋友的感恩之情。
3. 结合写话练习选取主题
选取恰当的写话主题让学生演讲, 既能起到育人作用, 同时也能以此提高学生的写话能力。例如, 我选用了“An unforgettable thing””Suggestions on doing sth.”等主题让学生演讲。学生广开思路, 畅所欲言, 通过这样的课前演讲, 积累了素材, 为写话做好了准备。
二、采用多样的演讲形式
1. 学生个人自述
大多数学生能够写好自我介绍, 但是写好并不等于说好, 为了能使学生流利地进行自我介绍, 教师可以给学生提供一个推销自我、展现自我的舞台, 并给予一定的点评:表达是否流畅、表现是否大方;内容是否包括了姓名、来自哪里、家庭情况、专业技术能力、个性特征、兴趣爱好、理想等, 以帮助学生改进。
2. 讲故事或故事接力
在课堂上, 如果老师能够偶尔采用有童趣的方法, 可以帮助学生发散他们的想象力, 发掘他们的创造力, 讲故事或故事接力就很具代表性。同学们讲的故事最好要浅显易懂, 并且能和所学专业相结合, 这样有助于他们今后走上工作岗位后更好地学以致用。
3. 猜谜语
如介绍班上某位同学或某位名星或某位著名的作家等等, 先不说他的名字, 通过描述性的语言让大家来猜猜他是谁, 比比看谁猜得又快又准。
4. 角色扮演
如A同学扮演Doctor, B同学扮演Patient, 情景再现医生给病人治病的过程, 还可用上些道具来辅助表演, 如医生的白大卦和听诊器等;再如可以模仿求职者和招聘官之间的对话, 由老师扮演招聘官, 一名学生扮演求职者, 或者招聘官和求职者分别由两名学生来扮演, 进行模拟对话, 为学生以后的求职面试打下基础。
5. 听唱英文歌曲
很多的英文歌曲都具有简单易记、朗朗上口的特点, 如Jingle Bells, Little Stars, Spring is Where等英文儿歌, Take me to your heart, Two butterflies等流行歌曲。听唱英文歌曲可以激发同学们的兴趣, 还可以训练他们的语音语调及发音。
三、进行及时的评价
1. 教师当场点评
笔者在每一次演讲活动结束后都紧跟着完成点评, 虽然点评的语句不多, 但是实践证明这是必不可少的一环。可点评的点很多, 如演讲技巧、文章的立意、最出众的地方、尚欠缺的地方等。多表扬、多鼓励, 老师恰当的点评, 演讲学生非常看重, 众多学生也听得非常认真, 这是一个引导的契机, 对每位学生的培养所起的作用都很大。
2. 评委评分
老师和同学们都是评委, 采用十分制或百分制进行打分, 算分则可由课代表在课后进行。评分最重要的标准可以从仪容仪表、发音、语音语调语速、现场感染力等多方面来进行评定。所有同学演讲的最后得分都将记录在成长档案中, 作为形成性评价的一个重要依据。
3. 优秀演讲稿装订成册
教师选出一些结构清晰、语句通畅、用词优美的优秀演讲稿, 或装订成册或张贴在教室的宣传栏上以供全班同学共同学习, 积累优美的句子和演讲的素材, 为同学们今后的演讲奠定基础。注重学生的成功体验同时也能激励这些优秀演讲稿的作者进一步地提高自己的写作和演讲能力, 符合新课标的成功激励机制。
四、英语课前演讲的实效
1. 提高学生的英语综合应用能力, 尤其是口语表达能力
英语课前三分钟演讲从表面上看来只是说的能力的体现, 但背后其实是英语各方面综合能力的培养。为了准备演讲稿, 课前得去“写”, 这有助于提高学生的写作水平;写好之后, 为了能做到脱稿演讲事先得背下来, 而背诵演讲稿的过程又是不断的“读”的过程;之后上台来演讲, 通过“说”的方式把自己想要表达的意思呈现出来;而坐在台下的同学则须认真的“听”方能理解其演讲的主题和内容。可见整个过程实际贯穿的就是听说读写能力全方位的培养。特别要强调的是学生在反复的朗读、背诵、复述的训练过程中, 更为口语的提高打下来扎实的语言基础。
2. 培养学生自主探究、合作交流的学习能力
新课标要求教师“善于激发学生的学习兴趣, 能够充分调动学生的学习积极性和主动性, 引导学生自主探究、合作交流”。英语学习的最终目的在于运用, 而课前三分钟演讲则为同学提供了个“学以致用”的舞台。学生为了写演讲稿认真准备、自我探究、钻研教材, 通过学习教材明确了如何写演讲稿及演讲的技巧等, 同学们利用参与三分钟演讲的方式来参与课堂教学, 为了三分钟演讲而采用的合作式学习方法, 都符合了教学改革的思路, 极大地激发了学生主动学习的热情, 从而变“要我学”为“我要学”。
3. 为职高专业学生的职业生涯奠定基础
课前三分钟的英语演讲让绝大多数的学生真正意义的感受到“三尺讲台”, 比如如何去克服在讲台上的紧张、如何去掌控自己的声音做到抑扬顿挫。俗话说得好“熟能生巧”, 只有经常走上台来演讲, 才能练就教学中自信从容的仪容仪态, 为小学教育和学前教育专业学生的职业生涯奠定基础。

五分钟学会英语 篇8
话说有一天，我的热水器坏了，我只好一边省钱，一边洗英国澡（English bath)。所谓的English bath，最早可以追溯到维多利亚时代，它有两种洗法，第一种是每周六的晚饭后，用火炉烧一大锅水，倒入一个锡做的浴缸里，全家人按老幼尊卑的次序跳进去洗，比如狗一般是最后一个跳进去的；第二种，我在描写北大荒生活的伤痕小说里见识过，即烧一壶开水，倒在脸盆里，然后拿着一只瓜瓢，一小勺一小勺地往重要部位上浇。这种洗法，若是遇上林黛玉那样的尤物，应该也能洗得很豪华，但遇到像我这样在南方的井水边长大的，满满一墙的壁虎都被浇死了，我则还跟骆驼干似的站在那里。
尽管如此，我还是按照第二种方式，洗了整整一个月的English bath，直到预算终于达到3位数时，才底气十足地拿起了电话。
接电话的是一个印度人，对不起，我绝对没有仇视印度人的意思，如果有的话，我就不会一而再再而三地请他们上门来为我赈灾，而是奋笔疾书，写一本《我和印度人之间不得不说的故事》了。“一小时120英镑，不能再低了。” “会不会像我的电脑那样，修了2个月还没有修好?” “你放心，绝对不会超过两个小时！”一笔口头交易就这样达成了。
那一天，我终于深深地理解了《阿飞正传》里面的那一句话：“我以前以为一分钟很快就会过去，其实是可以很长的。”那家伙修了整整6个小时，把我的热水器又装又拆又装又拆……小小的厨房，满地狼藉，就像达达主义刚刚完成了一场对现代主义的入侵一样。临走的时候，为了安抚我激动的情绪，他深表同情地说道：“我修过一个12个小时的……”
第二天，热水器便开始渗水了，接着是它后面的墙壁。热水器连着煤气管，我担心煤气泄漏，又沉痛地悼念着那逝去的将近1000大洋，一夜未眠。而那家伙让我彻底明白了拖延症是世界上最美丽的绝症之后，倒是又来过两次，最后一次说，买只新的吧!
朋友们在听了我的哭诉之后，告诉我，这家伙叫“cowboy”。 我说cowboy不是牛仔的意思吗？他们说那是在美国，在英国cowboy的意思是“上帝派来上梁拆瓦的。” 下次记得要请“good man”（好人），好人在行事之前，会先上门做风险评估，看是否值得修，值得修的话会谈好预算，之后签约、画押；而且好人都有毕业证书、有营业执照、有固定据点、有网站、有热线电话、有售后服务、有一张像汤姆·汉克斯那样的脸（嗯嗯，这个我该相信吗？）……
总之，English bath和cowboy都是我在5分钟内学会的英语。
