英語演講稿：The story between English and me
By Yang Xinyun
Good morning everyone. My name is YangXinyun. You can call me Sunny, too. I’m a 13-year-old girl and I’m from Guilin Howell School. Today my topic isthe story between English and me.
Now as we all know, there are six officiallanguages of the United Nations. And English is one of them. Certainly it isvery important and useful. We can talk to the foreign people when we can speakEnglish very well. But everyone knows it is always difficult to learn somethingat the beginning. Just like learning English.
I started to learn English in Grade 2. First,I don’t like English. Because it’s really difficult for me to write, speak and remember.So I always get the worst marks in my class.
Until one day, my dad asked me a strangequestion, “What is your favourite thing ” I said, “I like my guitar. And I likedrawing pictures. I also like going out to play with Lisa.” （Lisa is my bestfriend.） Then he said, “What about English ” “I don’t like it at all.” Ianswered. My dad was very strict but also very patient, “My dear daughter, ifyou still don’t like English, you will never get a chance to learn more byEnglish, such as your music and your art.” I was afraid about that coming day. Andmy dad said, “So making a friend with English will make you happy. Trust me!” Ithought maybe my dad is right.
Then I came to Howell. It’s really a goodplace for learning. I played games and sang English songs with other classmatesin Howell. I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colourfuldream in my English world. Every day, I read English following the tapes.Sometimes, our teachers showed us cartoons. Certainly, I remembered and usedthe English words and phrases every day. I have been work harder and harder.
And now I can speak English well and alwaysget the best marks. I am happy. Because I did it better. I also have many problems.There are so many differences between English and Chinese. For example, when wemake a phone call, in Chinese we say, “I’m Sunny.” But in English we say, “Thisis Sunny.” If we can remember the differences we will be strong and powerful inEnglish. That’s exciting.
English is always my best friend and it hasbeen a part of my life. In the future, I am going to study inAustralia. Iwill learn English well and introduce my country well. It will be wonderful. Ibelieve that as I love English more, it will love me more, as well.
