染雾英语演讲稿：Change the World, Change Ourselves
篇一
Good morning/afternoon/evening, ladies and gentlemen,
Today, I stand before you to talk about the power we possess as individuals to change the world, and how this process starts with changing ourselves.
We live in a world that is constantly changing - politically, socially, and environmentally. Many of us dream of making a significant impact on this world, of leaving a lasting legacy. However, we often underestimate the power that lies within us to bring about change.
Mahatma Gandhi once said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." These words hold a profound truth. If we desire a world that is more compassionate, more just, and more sustainable, then we must first embody these qualities within ourselves.
So, how can we change ourselves in order to change the world?
Firstly, we must cultivate empathy and understanding. In our increasingly interconnected world, it is essential that we develop the ability to put ourselves in the shoes of others, to see the world through their eyes. By doing so, we can foster compassion and work towards resolving conflicts, promoting equality, and creating a more harmonious society.
Secondly, we must become agents of positive change in our own communities. Whether it is volunteering at a local charity, organizing a fundraising event, or simply lending a helping hand to those in need, we can make a difference in the lives of others. By taking action, we inspire those around us to do the same and create a ripple effect of change.
Lastly, we must adopt sustainable practices in our daily lives. Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges facing our world today. By making small changes, such as reducing our carbon footprint, conserving energy and water, and supporting eco-friendly initiatives, we can contribute to a more sustainable future for generations to come.
In conclusion, change starts with us. By changing ourselves, we can inspire others and create a positive impact on the world. Let us remember the words of Margaret Mead, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." So, let us embark on this journey of self-transformation, knowing that our actions have the power to shape a better world for all.
Thank you.
篇二
Ladies and gentlemen,
Today, I want to discuss the transformative power of changing ourselves and how it can influence the world we live in.
As individuals, we often feel overwhelmed by the enormity of the challenges facing our world. Poverty, inequality, and injustice seem insurmountable. However, it is crucial to recognize that change does not happen overnight, and it starts with each and every one of us.
Firstly, changing ourselves allows us to break free from the limitations imposed by society. We are often conditioned to think and act in certain ways, conforming to societal norms and expectations. However, by questioning these norms and embracing our individuality, we can inspire others to do the same. This will lead to a more diverse, inclusive, and accepting society.
Secondly, personal growth and development equip us with the tools to address the issues we care about. By continuously learning and expanding our knowledge, we can become more informed advocates. Whether it is through education, self-reflection, or engaging in meaningful conversations, we can gain a deeper understanding of the challenges we face and work towards finding innovative solutions.
Lastly, changing ourselves creates a ripple effect that can inspire others to take action. Our actions speak louder than words, and when others witness our personal transformation, they are motivated to follow suit. By being the change we want to see in the world, we can ignite a spark in others, encouraging them to contribute to positive change as well.
In conclusion, changing ourselves is not only a personal journey but also a catalyst for transforming the world around us. By questioning societal norms, pursuing personal growth, and inspiring others, we can create a ripple effect that leads to a more inclusive, just, and sustainable world. So, let us embrace the power within us to change ourselves and, in turn, change the world.
Thank you.

英语演讲稿：change the world， change ourselves
good evening， honorable judges， ladies and gentlemen。
it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world， change ourselves。
it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day， while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected。 not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ，because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture。
frankly speaking， i don’t quite agree with them。indeed， we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions。but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture。
there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china。 on the one hand， some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful， such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc。 on the other hand，the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china。 overwhelmed by such a trend，chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture。
with the further development of the whole world， the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important。 we are indeed from different nations， but we are the citizens of the same world， so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth。the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no。 what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture。 only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture。 only by educating can we preserve andpromote the wealth that our ancesters left for us。
at last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ，that is:if you want to change the world， then you must change yourself first。”
