ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.

first i want to ask you some questions:

1、do you know what is youth?

2、how do you master your youth?

youth

youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .

youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old by deserting our ideals.

years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .

whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .

when the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.

thank you!

i enter tile university after years of hard study and preparation. but life in the university is not as satisfactory as what i had expected. i become lazy and don't want to study.i become silcent. i become puzzled. i don't know what i can do in the future. then i become unhappy.
     
four years in the university is only a short period when compared my whole lifetime. now it has passed a half. in this year, many people ,such as my parents,my friends, ask me what i want to do and tell me to map out a plan for my life. i don't want to follow their suggestion, and i want to go my style. so i think carefully. i have been a young volunteer（志愿者） for five years.it's very happy and significant. then i have a dream.i want to join the university student volunteers go west programe. i think i can be a teacher in the west.i want to try my best to help them and help me. i want to see the world cearly. now i can't reach its demand and it's very diffcult,but i will work hard in the next two years. there is an old saying"where there is a will,there is a way.（有志者事竟成）"i think my dream can come ture.now in the university i mature,and in the university i prepare for the real world.
