with Wechat and Alipay, assimilating seamlessly into the local life here. The old era is like a cocoon, protecting us from possible dangers outside and providing us with warmth and fort. However, an overreliance on memories and experiences of a longgone past can also hinder us from genuine, meaningful interactions for the future, just as the cocoon can also serve as a wall to bar us from the beautiful world outside. But in order to make a brandnew attire or to build a modern silk road, we have to plunge the cocoons into hot water and obtain the silk despite the pain. So ladies and gentlemen, donamp。rsquo。t be trapped by the old era. Transcend it, and embrace the new one. Thank you. 英語比賽演講稿篇三 Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen, By the time we are born onto this land, our own Chinese story begins. Only when we put our stories together, can we discover something new. My mom was among the first generation in China to pick up a dual major, trade together with English. Her mom, my grandma, was a professor at the same college. And now, I am following my familyamp。rsquo。s footsteps, at the same university. I want to acplish a dream that has been passed on for three generations. When grandma entered college, she was in the age of prime, but education wasnamp。rsquo。t. It was an age when China had a literacy of merely over 50 percent。 it was an age when one out of eight got enrolled by a university or college。 it was an age when even the topclass universities in China were not recognized by the world.

On the frontpage, wrote one of the earliest Chinese stories, taken from the Great Learning: amp。ldquo。If you can do something new, then let it happen every day. With perseverance, every day bees a new day.amp。rdquo。 It was the moment when I realized that there has been something unchanged in the new era: that is always equipping ourselves with the new ideas and keep in pace with the time which never waits. Only by bearing this virtue in our minds that has inherited by the Chinese people for 5,000 years, can we gain both the confidence and the petence in telling a good Chinese story to all. Tell the Chinese story to the Chinese people, for a new China with cultural confidence。 tell the Chinese story to every global citizen, and together we build a munity of prosperity, pea
