A person who believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal
2、no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt
3、 at something new, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do no
4、t try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.In short, it is
5、 important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have non chance of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is
6、always a chance that we will succeed one day.Thank you !永远不要放弃我们经常听到人们说，“永不放弃”，这些可以鼓励的话和决心的话。相信他们的人会继续努力去实现他的目标，不管他失败多少次。在我看来，成功的决心是一个重要的问题。因此，我相信我们不应该放弃。一个原因是，如果我们放弃太容易，我们很少会实现任何东西。在我们的第一次尝试中失败是不寻常的，所以我们不应该感到气馁，应该再试一次。此外，如果我们总是放弃当我们失败，我们将无法发展新的技能和增长的人。我们不应该放弃的另一个原因是我们可以从我们的错误中学习，只有当我们做出新的努力。如果我们不尝试
7、，我们所学到的教训是浪费的。最后，我们永远不会放弃，因为当我们努力达到我们的目标时，我们会发展信心，而这种信心能帮助我们在生活的其他领域取得成功。如果我们从不挑战自我，我们就会开始怀疑自己的能力。总之，重要的是，我们不放弃工作时，我们的目标。不管我们是否成功，我们都会学到一些东西，我们的学习会帮助我们变得更好，更有自信的人。此外，如果我们放弃，我们有机会实现我们的目标，但如果我们继续努力，总有一个机会，我们会成功的一天。谢谢!关于坚持的英语演讲稿（中英文对照）篇2别坚持说英语 Dont insist on EnglishI know what youre thinking.

8、 Ive lost my way, and somebodys going to come on the stage in a minute and guide me gently back to my seat. (Applause) I get that all the time in Dubai. Here on holiday are you, dear? (Laughter) Come to visit the children? How long are you staying?我知道你们在想什么，你们觉得我迷路了，马上就会有人走上台温和地把我带回我的座位上。(掌声)。我在迪拜总会
9、遇上这种事。“来这里度假的吗，亲爱的?”(笑声)“来探望孩子的吗?这次要待多久呢?Well actually, I hope for a while longer yet. I have been living and teaching in the Gulf for over 30 years. (Applause) And in that time, I have seen a lot of changes. Now that statistic is quite shocking. And I want to talk to you today about language loss a
10、nd the globalization of English. I want to tell you about my friend who was teaching English to adults in Abu Dhabi. And one fine day, she decided to take them into the garden to teach them some nature vocabulary. But it was she who ended up learning all the Arabic words for the local plants, as wel
11、l as their uses - medicinal uses, cosmetics, cooking, herbal. How did those students get all that knowledge? Of course, from their grandparents and even their great-grandparents. Its not necessary to tell you how important it is to be able to communicate across generations.恩，事实上，我希望能再待久一点。我在波斯湾这边生活和
12、教书已经超过30年了。(掌声)这段时间里，我看到了很多变化。现在这份数据是挺吓人的，而我今天要和你们说的是有关语言的消失和英语的全球化。我想和你们谈谈我的朋友，她在阿布达比教成人英语。在一个晴朗的日子里，她决定带她的学生到花园去教他们一些大自然的词汇。但最后却变成是她在学习所有当地植物在阿拉伯语中是怎么说的。还有这些植物是如何被用作药材，化妆品，烹饪，香草。这些学生是怎么得到这些知识的呢?当然是从他们的祖父母，甚至曾祖父母那里得来的。不需要我来告诉你们能够跨代沟通是多么重要。But sadly, today, languages are dying at an unprecedented ra
13、te. A language dies every 14 days. Now, at the same time, English is the undisputed global language. Could there be a connection? Well I dont know. But I do know that Ive seen a lot of changes. When I first came out to the Gulf, I came to Kuwait in the days when it was still a hardship post. Actuall
14、y, not that long ago. That is a little bit too early. But nevertheless, I was recruited by the British Council along with about 25 other teachers. And we were the first non-Muslims to teach in the state schools there in Kuwait. We were brought to teach English because the government wanted to modern
15、ize the country and empower the citizens through education. And of course, the U.K. benefited from some of that lovely oil wealth.但遗憾的是，今天很多语言正在以前所未有的速度消失。每14天就有一种语言消失，而与此同时，英语却无庸置疑地成为全球性的语言。这其中有关联吗?我不知道。但我知道的是，我见证过许多改变。初次来到海湾地区时，我去了科威特。当时教英文仍然是个困难的工作。其实，没有那么久啦，这有点太久以前了。总之，我和其他25位老师一起被英国文化协会聘用。我们是第一
16、批非穆斯林的老师，在科威特的国立学校任教。我们被派到那里教英语，是因为当地政府希望国家可以现代化并透过教育提升公民的水平。当然，英国也能得到些好处，产油国可是很有钱的。Okay. Now this is the major change that Ive seen - how teaching English has morphed from being a mutually beneficial practice to becoming a massive international business that it is today. No longer just a foreign la
17、nguage on the school curriculum. And no longer the sole domain of mother England. It has become a bandwagon for every English-speaking nation on earth. And why not? After all, the best education - according to the latest World University Rankings - is to be found in the universities of the U.K. and
18、the U.S. So everybody wants to have an English education, naturally. But if youre not a native speaker, you have to pass a test.言归正传，我见过最大的改变，就是英语教学的蜕变如何从一个互惠互利的行为变成今天这种大规模的国际产业。英语不再是学校课程里的外语学科，也不再只是英国的专利。英语(教学)已经成为所有英语系国家追逐的潮流。何乐而不为呢?毕竟，最好的教育来自于最好的大学，而根据最新的世界大学排名，那些名列前茅的都是英国和美国的大学。所以自然每个人都想接受英语教育，但
19、如果你不是以英文为母语，你就要通过考试。Now can it be right to reject a student on linguistic ability alone? Perhaps you have a computer scientist whos a genius. Would he need the same language as a lawyer, for example? Well, I dont think so. We English teachers reject them all the time. We put a stop sign, and we stop
20、 them in their tracks. They cant pursue their dream any longer, till they get English. Now let me put it this way, if I met a monolingual Dutch speaker who had the cure for cancer, would I stop him from entering my British University? I dont think so. But indeed, that is exactly what we do. We Engli
21、sh teachers are the gatekeepers. And you have to satisfy us first that your English is good enough. Now it can be dangerous to give too much power to a narrow segment of society. Maybe the barrier would be too universal.但仅凭语言能力就拒绝学生这样对吗?譬如如果你碰到一位天才计算机科学家，但他会需要有和律师一样的语言能力吗?我不这么认为。但身为英语老师的我们，却总是拒绝他们。我
22、们处处设限，将学生挡在路上，使他们无法再追求自己的梦想，直到他们通过考试。现在容我换一个方式说，如果我遇到了一位只会说荷兰话的人，而这个人能治愈癌症，我会阻止他进入我的英国大学吗?我想不会。但事实上，我们的确在做这种事。我们这些英语老师就是把关的。你必须先让我们满意，使我们认定你的英文够好。但这可能是危险的。把太多的权力交由这么小的一群人把持，也许会令这种障碍太过普及。Okay. But, I hear you say, what about the research? Its all in English. So the books are in English, the journals
23、are done in English, but that is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It feeds the English requirement. And so it goes on. I ask you, what happened to translation? If you think about the Islamic Golden Age, there was lots of translation then. They translated from Latin and Greek into Arabic, into Persian, an
24、d then it was translated on into the Germanic languages of Europe and the Romance languages. And so light shone upon the Dark Ages of Europe. Now dont get me wrong; I am not against teaching English, all you English teachers out there. I love it that we have a global language. We need one today more
25、 than ever. But I am against using it as a barrier. Do we really want to end up with 600 languages and the main one being English, or Chinese? We need more than that. Where do we draw the line? This system equates intelligence with a knowledge of English which is quite arbitrary.于是，我听到你们问但是研究呢?研究报告都
26、要用英文。”的确，研究论著和期刊都要用英文发表，但这只是一种理所当然的现象。有英语要求，自然就有英语供给，然后就这么循环下去。我倒想问问大家，为什么不用翻译呢?想想伊斯兰的黄金时代，当时翻译盛行，人们把拉丁文和希腊文翻译成阿拉伯文或波斯文，然后再由拉伯文或波斯文翻译为欧洲的日耳曼语言以及罗曼语言。于是文明照亮了欧洲的黑暗时代。但不要误会我的意思，我不是反对英语教学或是在座所有的英语老师。我很高兴我们有一个全球性的语言，这在今日尤为重要。但我反对用英语设立障碍。难道我们真希望世界上只剩下600种语言，其中又以英文或中文为主流吗?我们需要的不只如此。那么我们该如何拿捏呢?这个体制把智能和英语能力画
27、上等号这是相当武断的。And I want to remind you that the giants upon whose shoulders todays intelligentsia stand did not have to have English, they didnt have to pass an English test. Case in point, Einstein. He, by the way, was considered remedial at school because he was, in fact, dyslexic. But fortunately fo
28、r the world, he did not have to pass an English test. Because they didnt start until 1964 with TOEFL, the American test of English. Now its exploded. There are lots and lots of tests of English. And millions and millions of students take these tests every year. Now you might think, you and me, those
29、 fees arent bad, theyre okay, but they are prohibitive to so many millions of poor people. So immediately, were rejecting them.我想要提醒你们，扶持当代知识分子的这些“巨人肩膀不必非得具有英文能力，他们不需要通过英语考试。爱因斯坦就是典型的例子。顺便说一下，他在学校还曾被认为需要课外补习，因为他其实有阅读障碍。但对整个世界来说,很幸运的当时他不需要通过英语考试，因为他们直到1964年才开始使用托福。现在英语测验太泛滥了，有太多太多的英语测验，以及成千上万的学生每年都在参
30、加这些考试。现在你会认为，你和我都这么想，这些费用不贵，价钱满合理的。但是对数百万的穷人来说，这些费用高不可攀。所以，当下我们又拒绝了他们。It brings to mind a headline I saw recently: Education: The Great Divide. Now I get it, I understand why people would focus on English. They want to give their children the best chance in life. And to do that, they need a Western
31、education. Because, of course, the best jobs go to people out of the Western Universities, that I put on earlier. Its a circular thing.这使我想起最近看到的一个新闻标题：“教育：大鸿沟”现在我懂了。我了解为什么大家都重视英语，因为他们希望给孩子最好的人生机会。为了达成这目的，他们需要西方教育。毕竟，不可否认，最好的工作都留给那些西方大学毕业出来的人。就像我之前说的，这是一种循环。Okay. Let me tell you a story about two sc
32、ientists, two English scientists. They were doing an experiment to do with genetics and the forelimbs and the hind limbs of animals. But they couldnt get the results they wanted. They really didnt know what to do, until along came a German scientist who realized that they were using two words for forelimb and hind limb, whereas genetics does not differentiate and neither does German. So bingo, problem solved. If you cant think a thought, you are stuck. But if another language can think that thought, then, by cooperating, we
