Is Failure a Bad Thing

Failure is a common thing in our daily life. As students, we sometimes fail to get high scores in our exams.

When we play games, we might be beaten by others. And there are times when we fail to do work well. All these failures happen naturally and almost every one of us has such experiences.

However, there are different attitudes towards failure. Some people lose heart when they fail; they think the world is at its end.

Some people don‘t take failure seriously but just let it be, while some others learn much from failure, and therefore see the light of hope through failure.

In my opinion, what is really important is not failure itself, but what we think of failure and what we do after failure.

As long as we don‘t give up, keeping believing in ourselves, and at the same time learn something from failure, we‘ll certainly make our mark in the end.

So I am never afraid of failure, for I believe that failure is not a bad thing. Rather, “Failure is the mother of success.

Tomorrow will be better

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, I’m very happy to be making a speech here. Today my topic is “Tomorrow will be better. ”

China born and China bred, I love China very much. I’m proud that I have got the beautiful yellow skin, black eyes and black hair. I’m also proud that I speak the most beautiful language in the world——Chinese. When I heard that China, our motherland, would have a chance to hold the 2008 Olympic Games, I felt very happy and excited, and I hoped I could do something useful to build China into a beautiful and energetic country.

In the 21st century, the environment is becoming more and more important, so we have "Green Olympic" as a slogan. Of course a slogan is just a goal. The most important thing is that we should do some things to make it true. Such as sorting the trash, saving the energy and so on. We are still students now, so we can't do anything really big, but if everybody does something good for our environment, we could make our motherland more beautiful.

In fact, the things we can do are easy. Like not littering used batteries everywhere, sorting the trash that we want to throw away, and also protecting the animals and plants around us.

Luckily, I had a chance to take part in an activity, that is, we planted 5 trees everybody in our campus. My classmates and I worked very hard. This activity is not only about planting trees, but also contributing to our environment. Look at the trees, I believe, tomorrow there will be more trees and flowers standing in our campus and giving Chinese people a beautiful environment.

We are all Chinese people, living on the earth. We have only one motherland——China, just like we have only one earth. If we don't beautify our environment, who will? Good environment depends on good human consciousness. We should say that protecting our surroundings is not easy, that's why I'm standing here to summon people do it.

If we do this from the bottom of our hearts tomorrow, China will be more brilliant, it will have blue skies, white clouds and cleaner rivers. Who doesn't want China to become more and more beautiful? If we do our best, tomorrow will be better!

Thank you for your listening! Thank you all!
