Study hard,and be determined to be a useful man

常言道,”一分耕耘,一分收獲.”有了辛勤的勞動,我們才會有成果,不勞而獲的事情是不存在的.

As the saying goes, "No pains, no gains." With the hard work, we will have results. Unearned thing is non-existent.

是的,勤奮屬于珍惜時間,愛惜光陰的人,屬于腳踏實地,一絲不茍的人,屬于堅持不懈,持之以恒的人,屬于勇于探索，勇于創(chuàng)新的人。

Yes,diligence belongs to the person who treasure and cherish time,belongs to the person who keep his feet on the ground,belongs to the person who has the spirit of persistence and perseverance(p??s?'v??r?ns),belongs to the person who has the courage to explore and  innovate('?n??ve?t).

因為勤奮,安徒生從一個鞋匠的兒子成為童話王;因為勤奮；因為勤奮，巴爾扎克給人類留下了寶貴的文學遺產《人間喜劇》；因為勤奮，愛迪生才有一千多種偉大的科學發(fā)明；還是因為勤奮，中國古人才給我們留下鑿壁偷光、囊螢映雪的千古美談。

Because of diligence, Hans Christian Andersen,who was just a shoemaker's son,become a great king of fairy tale; because of diligence, Balzac/'bælzæk / left precious literary heritage" Human Comedy " to the whole world; because of diligence, Edison has more than 1000 kinds of great scientific inventions;and it also due to diligence，Chinese ancient people left us great topics about cutting the wall to steal light and reading by the light of bagged fireflies or reflected by the snow.

愛因斯坦曾經說過：“在天才和勤奮之間我毫不遲疑的選擇后者”. 學問是鑄器的工具，放棄了學問，便摧毀了自己。”

Albert Einstein once said: "Between the talent and diligence, I do not hesitate to choose the latter one". Learning is a tool for casting. The person who abandon the knowledge, will also destroy themselves.

每個人都有一份屬于自己的志向，也許遠大、也許平凡.

Everyone has his own aspiration/æsp?'re??n/, and it's perhaps ambitious/am'bi·tious /, perhaps trivial/'tr?v??l/.

俗話說：“無志之人常立志，有志之人立大志”。立志是成功的動力，能讓我們?yōu)閷崿F(xiàn)目標而艱苦奮斗.

As the saying goes: "The person without aims often determined while the person with aspiration set up high aims." Setting up aims is the power to  pursue success which can drive us to work hard to achieve goals.

所以我們只有勤奮學習立志成才，才能實現(xiàn)自己的理想，才能照亮祖國未來的希望。

Therefore, only if we study hard with diligence and  determined to be a useful man,can we make our dreams come true,can we lighten the hope of motherland's future.

然而，我們校園中出現(xiàn)有背于學校主流文化的現(xiàn)象，卻不由得讓我們重新進行了思考，我們的學生是否還懷有拼搏、收獲的心來對待生活。

However, we have to say that a phenomenon /f?'n?m?n?n/which is not good and against the mainstream culture of our school has arisen, which make us cant't help thinking about whether we students treat our life with a heart of struggle and harvest.

在課堂上沉浸在電腦世界、手機世界里的同學們，你們是否想過你們每天收獲了什么？在廁所里的‘騰云駕霧’,考場中的照抄作弊，熄燈后的大呼小叫,作為跨世紀新一代的中國青年就是我們這樣嗎？

The students, who is immersed /im'mersed / in the world of computer and mobile phone in the classroom, have you ever thought what you get every day? Smoking in the toilet, cheating in the exam,and shouting in the dormitory after lights out, don't we feel ashamed as a new generation of Chinese cross-century  youth？

現(xiàn)在的社會是一個競爭的社會，沒有過硬的本領，沒有豐富的知識，是無法在社會上立足的。

Today's society is a competitive society.If you are lack of perfect skills and abundant knowledge, you will be unable to gain a foothold in the society.

所以，同學們，請醒醒吧！是該醒的時候了。不要被習慣所俘虜，被時間所迷惑，被惰性所消磨。

So,my dear schoolmates, please wake up! It's time to wake up. Do not be a prisoner of your bad habits, don't be confused by the passing time,don't be defeated by the inertia/'in·er·tia/ .

讓我們問問自己，我們對得起含辛茹苦的父母嗎？如果父母知道我們在學校的表現(xiàn)竟是這樣，他們該是多么的傷心!!!

Let's ask ourselves, how we can treat our parents who bring up us with hardships fairly? If the parents know that our bad performance in school, how sad they will be!!!

羅馬并非一日建成，成功更非一蹴而就。為了含辛茹苦撫養(yǎng)我們的父母，為了辛勤培育我們的老師，更是為了我們自己美好的將來，該是改變自己，完善自己的時候了！

Rome was not built in a day, the same as success. For our dear parents who bring us up,for our dear teachers who educate us, and also for our own bright future,it's time for all of us to change and perfect ourselves!

正處于學習階段的我們，就應該具有像愛迪生、巴爾扎克那樣的刻苦努力、不懈追求得精神.在學習的道路上我們只有勤奮踏實的將一點一滴的知識掌握，才能最終走向成功.

We are in a learning stage, and we should have the spirit of hard-working and pursuance /p?r'su?ns/, just like Edison and Balzac. Because only in this way, can we achieve our goals,

一分耕耘一分收獲，在耕耘的時候，我們就應該付出辛勤的勞動，收獲的時候才會碩果累累。

"No pains,no gains". Only if in the hard time we pay our hard labor,  can we have a  fruitful harvest afterwards.

對于九年級的哥哥、姐姐們來說，中考考試已并不遙遠，面臨著人生的第一次選擇，你們應該加倍努力，刻苦學習，為迎接中考考試做充足的準備；相信你們一定會有一個圓滿的結果。

For the  brothers and sisters in Grade Nine, secondary school entrance exam is coming.Facing the first important choice in your life,you should work hard and try your best to

prepare for the exam.We all believe that all of you can get satisfying/sæt?sfa???/ results.

對于八年級的學長學姐們來說，八年級是初中學習的一個轉折點，你們應該好好把握，努力學習，不斷提高自己；你們一直是我們學習的榜樣。

For the  brothers and sisters in Grade Eight,all of you should take this opportunity and study hard to improve yourselves constantly.You always set a good example for us.

而七年級的我們更不能放松，我們現(xiàn)在的努力是在為以后的學習打下堅實的基礎，只有地基打牢了，房子才會蓋得更高。

And we seventh grade classmates can not relax ourselves.What we are doing now will lay a solid foundation for the future learning .Only in this way, will the house be built higher.

同學們，無論我們處在哪個學習階段，我們都應該努力，抓住這段易逝的光陰 ,好好把握，作一名努力學習不斷奮進的中學生.

Students, regardless of what we are in learning stage, we should all strive to seize the valuable time ,take advantage of it and be a middle school student who works hard and moves forward constantly.

今天我們站在這里，不是來領導你們喊口號的，勤奮，立志不是只喊口號，而是要有實際行動。無需遲疑，現(xiàn)在就行動吧！

Today we stand here, not to lead you to shout slogans/'sl??g?n/,diligence and self-determined,is not just a shouting slogan, but a real action.Without hesitation, Act now!

我們的未來，就需要我們自己牢牢將其把握在手中！或許只需要先在勇氣上踏出一小步，我們就在立志成才上成功地踏出了一大步！

We need to grasp our future in our own hands firmly!Maybe we just need the first half step in the courage, we will successfully take a big step to make sure to be a useful man.

從今天起，不，就是此刻，身為學生的我們定下自己的努力方向，一步一個腳印, 為學校，為社會，為祖國貢獻我們的力量吧!!!

From today on, no, from  this moment on, as the students, we set our own direction, and  pursue it step by step ,and devote ourselves to our school, our society and our mother land!!!

我的演講到此結束。謝謝大家。
