Title: The Power of Kindness
Ladies and gentlemen,
Good afternoon! Today, I would like to share with you a heartwarming English story that highlights the power of kindness.
Once upon a time, in a small village in England, there lived a poor old man named John. Despite his own struggles, John always had a kind word and a helping hand for everyone he met. He believed that even the smallest act of kindness could make a big difference in someone's life.
One cold winter's day, a terrible storm hit the village. The wind howled, and the snow fell heavily. People huddled inside their homes, trying to stay warm and safe. However, there was a young girl named Sarah who was left outside in the bitter cold. Sarah's family had fallen on hard times and couldn't afford to buy her proper winter clothing.
As Sarah shivered in the snow, she stumbled upon John's small cottage. Knocking on the door, she hoped that he would let her in. John, with his kind heart, welcomed her inside without hesitation. He offered her a warm meal, dry clothes, and a cozy bed to sleep in.
The next morning, Sarah woke up to find that John had already left for work. Grateful for his kindness, she decided to repay him by cleaning his cottage and preparing a delicious meal for him. When John returned home, he was touched by Sarah's gesture. He realized that his act of kindness had inspired her to do the same for others.
News of John's kindness quickly spread throughout the village. People began to see the power of small acts of kindness and started helping one another. Neighbors checked on each other during the storm, shared food and resources, and offered support to those in need. The village transformed into a compassionate and caring community all because of one man's kind heart.
This story teaches us that even a simple act of kindness can have a profound impact on others. Just like John, we should strive to be kind and compassionate toward one another. It doesn't take much to brighten someone's day or make a difference in their life. By embracing kindness, we can create a better world for ourselves and those around us.
Thank you for listening. Let us all remember the power of kindness and spread it wherever we go.

Title: The Value of Perseverance
Ladies and gentlemen,
Good evening! Today, I would like to share with you an inspiring English story that emphasizes the value of perseverance.
Once upon a time, in a bustling city in England, there lived a young boy named Jack. Jack had a dream of becoming a renowned violinist, but he faced numerous obstacles on his journey towards success. His family was poor, and he couldn't afford to buy a violin or pay for music lessons. Despite these challenges, Jack had an unwavering determination to achieve his dreams.
One day, Jack heard about a prestigious music school that offered scholarships to talented students. Without hesitation, he applied for the scholarship, hoping for a chance to study music and pursue his passion. However, the competition was fierce, and Jack was not selected. Disheartened but not defeated, he decided to practice even harder and improve his skills.
For the next few years, Jack dedicated himself to music. He borrowed a violin from a kind neighbor and spent countless hours practicing in his small room. He listened to recordings of famous violinists and studied their techniques. Jack's perseverance paid off when he was finally accepted into the music school on his second attempt.
At the music school, Jack faced new challenges. He was surrounded by talented musicians who seemed to have more natural ability than he did. However, Jack refused to be discouraged. He practiced diligently, sought guidance from his teachers, and embraced every opportunity to perform. His hard work and determination began to pay off as he started winning competitions and gaining recognition for his talent.
Years later, Jack fulfilled his dream of becoming a renowned violinist. He performed on prestigious stages around the world, captivating audiences with his skill and passion. When asked about his success, Jack always credited his perseverance as the key factor in achieving his dreams.
This story teaches us the importance of perseverance in overcoming obstacles and achieving our goals. Like Jack, we may face setbacks and challenges along the way, but it is our determination and perseverance that will ultimately lead us to success. No matter how difficult the journey may be, if we stay committed and never give up, we can accomplish anything we set our minds to.
Thank you for listening. Let us all remember the value of perseverance and strive to achieve our dreams, no matter the circumstances we may face.
英语故事的演讲稿 篇三
A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it.
"Is this your car, Mister?" he said.
Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ." He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.
"I wish," the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.
"There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "

A lady went to a hat shop to buy a hat. As she was very fussy, it took her a long time to pick on one. Already at the end of his patience the salesman was afraid that she might change her mind again so he tried to flatter her: "An excellent choice, madam. You look at least ten years younger with this hat on!" To his dismay, the lady took off her hat at once and said: "I don't want a hat that makes me look ten years older as soon as I take it off. Show me some more hats!"

It was rush hour and I was dashing to a train in New York City's Grand Central Terminal - As I neared the gate, a plump, middle-aged woman sprinted up from behind, lost her footing on the smooth marble floor and slid onto her back. Her momentum carried her close to my shoes. Before I could help her, however, she had scrambled up. Gaining her posure, she winked at me and said, "Do you always have beautiful women failing at your feet?"
