第1篇 提問式英語演講稿開場(chǎng)白欣賞
mr. chairman, e_cellencies, ladies and gentlemen,
i should like first of all, to once again thank the norwegian nobel committee for the award they have made to the united nations peace-keeping operations. their decision has been acclaimed all over the world. i take this opportunity also to e_press once again my deep gratitude to the countries, which have contributed troops or provided logistical support to these operations. it is to their willing co-operation that we owe the success of this great e_periment in conflict control.
peace─the word evokes the simplest and most cherished dream of humanity. peace is, and has always been, the ultimate human aspiration. and yet our history overwhelmingly shows that while we speak incessantly of peace, our aquinas tells a very different story.
peace is an easy word to say in any language. as secretary-general of the united nations i hear it so frequently from so many different mouths and different sources, that it sometimes seems to me to be general incantation more or less deprived of practical meaning. what we really mean by peace?

主席先生,各位貴賓,女士們,先生們:
首先,我要再一次感謝挪威諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)委員會(huì)決定頒獎(jiǎng)給聯(lián)合國(guó)維持和平部隊(duì)。他們的決定受到了全世界的歡迎。我還要借此機(jī)會(huì),對(duì)那些派遣軍隊(duì)或提供后勤支援的國(guó)家表示深深的感謝。我們要把這種遏制沖突實(shí)驗(yàn)的成功歸于他們的自愿合作。
和平,這個(gè)詞喚起了人們最樸素、最珍愛的夢(mèng)想。和平現(xiàn)在是,而且始終是人類最崇高的希冀。然而,我們的大部分歷史卻表明,當(dāng)我們無休無止地談?wù)摵推綍r(shí),我們的行動(dòng)卻在講述一個(gè)迥然不同的故事。
和平在任何語言中都是一個(gè)說起來很容易的詞。作為聯(lián)合國(guó)秘書長(zhǎng),我從不同的語言和不同的地方經(jīng)常聽到它,以至于有時(shí)在我看來,和平這個(gè)詞多多少少是失去了其真實(shí)意義的口頭禪。我們所說的和平的真正含義是什么?
as clothes, food, shelter and travel are the four elements for life; we can not live without one of them. so is the case with other living things. maybe other living things can live without one of them, but they are not particular about that much.
bacterium is very tiny living things, like a baby in them. what does the baby have to wear? what does the baby have to eat? where does the baby live? how does the baby move? we would like to know about these.
衣食住行是人生的四件大事,一件都不能缺少。不但人類如此,就是其他微生物也何曾能缺少一件,不過沒有人類這樣講究罷了。細(xì)菌是微生物,是生物中的小寶寶。這位小寶寶穿的是什么?吃的是什么?住在那里?怎樣行動(dòng)?我們倒要見識(shí)見識(shí)。
to me, england is the country, and the country is england. and when i ask myself what i mean by england, when i think of england when i am abroad, england comes to me through my various senses─through the ear, through the eye, and through certain imperishable scents. i will tell you what they are, and there may be those among you who feel as i do.
在我看來,英格蘭是鄉(xiāng)村,鄉(xiāng)村就是英格蘭。當(dāng)我捫心自問我心中的英格蘭是什么,當(dāng)我在異國(guó)他鄉(xiāng)想起英格蘭時(shí),英格蘭通過我的耳朵,通過我的眼睛,通過種種永駐人間的芬芳,通過我的各種感官來到我的前面。我將告訴你們它們是什么,也許在你們中間有些人和我感覺一樣。
