good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. good afternoon, boys and girls. good afternoon, everybody. i ’m glad to make a speech here.
as we all know, tomorrow is teachers’ day. many people say that teachers are not unusual at all. that’s true. but i want to say though teachers are common, their job is unusual. what they do is very very great. i am an english teacher. so i’ll make an english speech here. and my topic is “live with thankfulness”. do you know what “thankfulness” means in chinese? it means “gan’en”.
we know that in the world, we are not living alone. from the day we were born, there have been many people around us. they take care of us. they help us. they teach us. they play with us and grow up together with us. they support us. they understand us. the most important is: they love us. who are they? can you give me your answer?
yes, they are our parents, grandparents or family members; they may be your classmates, your friends even your neighbors. they are all important to us. we can’t live without them. we should thank them.
we should thank the great world. because it gives us sunlight, air, water and everything we need to keep us alive healthily. we can’t live without them.
we should thank our parents. they are the people who gave us the life. they look after us carefully and give all their love to us. i believe if necessary, they are willing to give everything to us. they stay with us, all the time.
we should thank our teachers. it is they who teach us knowledge unselfishly. they let us know how to write, how to read, how to get on with others and so on. they are our guide in our life.
we should thank our friends, our classmates. they are our partners. they understand us. they encourage us. they play with us. they grow up together with us. they make our life more colorful.
my dear boys and girls, teachers’ day is coming. it’s a celebrating time. it’s also a thankful time. let’s take actions together. show our thanks to the world, learn to protect it. show our thanks to our parents, learn to look after them. show our thanks to our teachers, learn how to respect them. show our thanks to our classmates, learn to help and share with them.
boys and girls, are you ready? live with thankfulness, from now on. let’s go!
so much for my talk .thanks very much!
