The Importance of Keeping Optimistic
Honourable judges, ladies and gentlemen,
Good afternoon! Today I would like to talk about the importance of
keeping optimistic. When we encounter difficulties in life, we notice that
some of us choose to bury their heads in the sand. Unfortunately, however,
this attitude will do you no good, because if you will have no courage
even to face them, how can you conquer them? Thus, be optimistic, ladies
and gentlemen, as it can give you confidence and help you see yourself
through the hard times, just as Winston Churchill once said, “An optimist
sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in
every opportunity.”
Ladies and Gentlemen, keeping optimistic, you will be able to realize,
in spite of some hardship, there’s always hope waiting for you, which will
lead you to the ultimate success. Historically as well as currently, there
are too many optimists of this kind to enumerate. You see, Thomas Edison
is optimistic; if not, the light of hope in his heart could not illuminate
the whole world. Alfred Nobel is optimistic; if not, the explosives and
the prestigious Nobel Prize would not have come into being. And Lance
Armstrong is also optimistic; if not, the devil of cancer would have
devoured his life and the world would not see a 5-time winner of the Tour
De France.
A rose may be beautiful, or maybe not; that depends on your attitude
only, and so does success, so does life. Hindrances and difficulties do
exist, but if you are optimistic, then they are only episodes on your long
way to the throne of success; they are more bridges than obstacles! Now I
prefer to end my speech with the great British poet Shelley’s lines: “If
winter comes, can spring be far behind?” Thank you!
保持樂觀的重要性
尊敬的評委、女士們、先生們:
下午好!今天我想談一談保持樂觀的重要性。
我們注意到,當(dāng)在生活中遇到困難時,我們中的有些人選擇逃避它們。但令人遺憾的是,這樣的態(tài)度對你沒有任何好處,因為如果你連面對它們的勇氣都沒有的話,你怎么去征服它們呢?因此,樂觀起來吧,女士們、先生們,因為它會帶給你信心,幫助你渡過難關(guān)。正如溫斯頓·丘吉爾所說,“樂觀者在每次災(zāi)難中都看到機遇;悲觀者在每次機遇中都看到災(zāi)難”。
女士們,先生們,困難是存在的,但如果你保持樂觀,你就會意識到永遠(yuǎn)有希望在等著你,它會把你領(lǐng)向最終的成功。不管是歷史上還是現(xiàn)實中,這樣的樂觀者總是不勝枚舉。你看,托馬斯·愛迪生是樂觀的,如果不是的話,他心中那希望的明燈就不能照亮整個世界;阿爾弗雷德·諾貝爾是樂觀的,如果不是的話,那炸藥和享有很高聲望的諾貝爾獎就不會誕生;蘭斯·阿姆斯特朗也是樂觀的,如果不是的話,那癌癥的病魔早已吞噬了他的生命,這個世界就會少了一位五屆環(huán)法自行車賽冠軍得主.
玫瑰花可能很美,也可能不美,這,僅僅取決于你的態(tài)度;而成功也如此,人生也如此。困難和阻礙的確存在,但是如果你很樂觀的話,那它們就僅僅是我們通向勝利之冠的漫長道路上的小插曲;與其說它們是障礙,不如說它們是橋梁!此刻,我想以偉大的英國詩人雪萊的一句詩來作為我的結(jié)尾:“冬天來了,春天還會遠(yuǎn)嗎?”謝謝!
