dear judges and friends,

the topic for my speech today is “festival.” i would like to talk about my favorite festival, the mid-autumn festival.

in china we have several important festivals, such as the spring festival, the lantern festival, the dragon-boat festival and the mid-autumn festival. among them, i like mid-autumn festival best, especially because i live in xiamen.

in xiamen, when we celebrate the mid-autumn festival, we do not only follow the common practices such as having a big dinner party with our family, eating mooncakes, and appreciating the full moon at night, we also have one unique custom which is only practiced in xiamen, that is “bo bing”.

“bo bing” is a very interesting game that almost all xiamen people play during this festival. usually family members or close friends get together around a table with a big round bowl in the middle and six dices in the bowl. we take turns to throw the dices into the bowl. we will get different prizes accroding to the different ways the dices show their upper sides. everyone is likely to become the champion or “zhuangyuan” for the year. there is an element of luck and equal opportunity in this game. so people usually get excited while playing. also, the game gives very pleasant sounds. the tinkling made by the dices falling into the bowl is pleasant, people’s laughing, cheering and applauding for the big prizes they’ve won is pleasant. all this adds greatly to the joyful atmosphere of this festival. as a kid, of course i also like the material prizes i get from the game, such as a candy or a cake.

in this year’s mid-autumn festival, my family invited our foreign friends to come to our home to celebrate the festival together. they have two children who are younger than me. while our parents were making jiaozi together, we kids played “bo bing”. we bought quite some gifts to share with our guests as their prizes.they enjoyed the game and our get-together very much.

the literal translation of “bo bing” is “mooncake gambling.” but actually it is not gambling, at least our family never plays it that way. for us, it is more an occasion of happy sharing and getting-together. this is why xiamen’s mid-autumn festival has become my favorite festival in the year.

thank you very much!

i earnestly hope to lead a healthy and prosperous life in the future. judging from my aptitude inclination and personality streaks, my ideal life will be that of a scientist, researching, lecturing, and writing books.

as i am from a farming family, i particularly enjoy being close to earth. if i can afford to live a pastoral life in the countryside, i will feel most blessed. as far as social life is concerned, simplicity is what i intend to pursue, so i really don't need too many friends. all these will be mere talk if i am idle now. to attain my goal, i must make a point of training my body and mind. this is a highly competitive society in which everyone is eager to come out on top. that is not only a competition of physical strength and mental power, but a marathon of patience, faith, and perseverance.

life is not all roses, but with what i am being equipped with by the top teachers in this elite school, i surely deserve a promising prospect.

chinese new year is the most important festivity for the chinese people. it is also called the spring festival or the lunar new year.

every year has an animal’s name. these animals are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. a chinese legend says that these twelve animals had a race. the first year was named after the rat, the winner. the other eleven years were named after the order in which the animals arrived in the race. the clever rat jumped onto the ox’s back then at the end jumped over the ox’s head to arrive first!

the chinese believe that a person born in a particular year has some of the characteristics of animal.

on chinese new year’s eve all family members enjoy a big, delicious meal. it is very important for the chinese to be with their families on this occasion. fish is always part of the dinner because it represents abundance.

the lion dancers are always part of the festivities. the lion has a big head and long body made of cloth. the lion dance is accompanied by drums, cymbals and noisy firecrackers. according to ancient traditions the great noise frightens away evil spirits.

the spring festival is the most important festival for the chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like christmas in the west.

waking up on new year, everybody dresses up. first they extend greetings to their parents. then each child will get money as a new year gift, wrapped up in red paper. people in northern china will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think "jiaozi" in sound means "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new".

that chinese people pay more attention to be polite,while it is different from other countries .and chinese culture is brilliant and they know how to use a brush to write

now dragon is the symbol of the whole chinese people.

dragon is a animal worshipped by the chinese people from the time immemorial. but what is it? no one knows.

some people think that the yanzi crocodile is the archetype of the dragon. however, most people hold that dragon is a combination of many animals. and the abilities of those animals have been collected to it. wang chong, once pointed that the horn of dragon liked deer's one, the head liked camel's one, the eyes liked rabbit's one, the neck liked snake's one, the talon liked eagle's one, the palm liked tiger's one and the ear liked cattle's one.

good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

today i would like to talk about current environment situations which you can see all over the world. while we are pursuing better ways of lives, more problems we are also making. sometimes we only notice a unilateral aspect of the matter while ignoring its various functions. this kind of negligence, however, may cause serious problems that could be devastating.

it is said that one false move may lose the game. this is proved in our daily life obviously. as the economy is growing rapidly day after day, manufacturers are looking for more opportunities to gain numerous profit. to earn more money, one way is to decrease the cost of the products. they move their factories to developing countries which can not only benefit them much more profit than before, but also those countries welcome them since they can help increase the countries’ gdp.

while it seems we can gain a lot from building factories to produce products, the shortcomings of these buildings are becoming obvious. though at the beginning, those developing countries did gain a lot of profit. as time passes, people living surround the factories deposit industrial waste into the river which directly leads to the influence of human’s lives. fish died, birds disappeared, people moved, and we couldn’t imagine what would come next. these industries also use lots of resources to carry on their production. large amounts of carbon dioxide are discharged, we all know the consequence of that, global warming—as one of the most essential environmental problems in the world, is becoming more and more serious currently. that the local government ignored was that these factories damaged their environment without any punishment but reception! they didn’t notice the negative aspect on this investment. what a pity!

in summary, nowadays, businessmen are destroying our motherland—earth for themselves. what should we do in this situation? ignore them or try to take some actions on it? i believe all of us will choose the latter, right? so just do it, nothing is impossible.

that’s all. thank you.
