英文演讲稿：奥巴马诺贝尔和平奖获奖感言 Good morning, well, this is not how I expected to wake up this morning. After I received the news, Malia walked in, and said, "Daddy, you won the Nobel Peace Prize, and it is Bo’s birthday." And then Sasha added, "Plus we have a three-day weekend coming up." So it’s good to have kids to keep things in perspective. I am both surprised and deeply humbled by the decision of the Nobel committee, let me be clear, I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations.
To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who’ve been honored by this prize. Men and women, who’ve inspired me and inspired the entire world through their courageous pursuit of peace, but I also know that this prize reflects the kind of world that those men and women, and all Americans want to build a world that gives live to the promise of our founding documents.
And I know that throughout history, the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement, it's also been used as a means to give more momentum to a set of causes. And that is why I will accept the award as a call to action, a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century. These challenges can’t be met by any one leader or any one nation. And that’s why my administration’s worked to establish a new era of engagement in which all nations must take the responsibility for the world we seek. We can not tolerate a world in which nuclear weapons spread in more nations, and in which the terror of a nuclear holocaust endangers more people.
That’s why we’ve begun to take concrete steps to pursue a world without nuclear weapons because all the nations have the right to pursue peaceful nuclear power, but all nations have the responsibility to demonstrate their peaceful intentions.
早上好！呃，这并不是我所能预料到的晨起方式。
我在接到消息后，玛利亚走了进来说：“爸爸，你获得诺贝尔和平奖。另外，今天是博（奥巴马家的狗）的生日。”不一会儿，萨莎又说：“我们就要有个‘三休日’的周末了。”孩子能够明辨事理的确是件不错的事。对于诺贝尔委员会的决定，我深感震惊和惭愧。需要说明的是，我并没有将这个奖看做是对我个人成就的认可，而是把它看成世界各国人民共同愿望的代表/代言人对美国领导地位的肯定。
坦白而言，我觉得自己不配与获得此项殊荣的改革性人物并排而列。他们对和平事业的无畏追求激励着我，也激励着整个世界。同时我也知道，这个奖表达了对一种世界的追求，这样的世使我们建国文献中的诺言得已兑现。
纵观历史，我们看到诺贝尔和平奖不仅是用来表彰特殊的成就，它同样对许多重大的事业起到了推动的作用。因此我将接受此项殊荣并以此作为号召，号召世界各国共同迎接21世纪的挑战。任何领导人，任何国家都无法独自应对这些挑战。本届政府一直在为建立一个新纪元而努力，在这个新纪元下各国都要为我们所寻求建立的世界承担其责任。我们不能容忍核武器在更多的国家蔓延开来，
也不能容忍核杀戮恐怖的阴影将笼罩更多的人民。
所以我们已经采取了具体的措施以追求一个无核武的世界。所有国家都有权和平使用核力量，但是都有责任说明使用的和平意图。
第二篇：励志英文演讲稿
Life could be a long journey of pursuing happiness. Does happiness have a universal definition ? I say no. But there must be something in life that makes you realize what it means .
During the SARS period , I heard a true story . In the battle against SARS, a doctor fell down . Mother of a 6-year-old son, wife of a considerate husband, she used to knock at the door even though she got the key, which annoyed the son . But now , to the son, how wonderful the sound was and how happy it was to open the door for his mum. But that will not happen forever.
What do you think? Things are always like this . We usually don’t cherish what we have until the moment we lose it. It reminds me of Helen Keller, U.S author who was blind and deaf from infancy, lived her life to the fullest. She once said “ Darkness would make you more appreciative of sight ; Silence would teach you the joys of sound .”
I could suddenly understand what happiness means .Materially, it could be everything and it could be nothing. The important thing is the attitude we hold. Happiness has something to do with how we feel about what we have. Compared with the boy and Helen , we’ll find we’ve already had much more: sound health ,sense of security, parental love . But I’m wondering why we always take what we have for granted and why we often ignore what is on the other h
and luxury to others. When there are so many things to distract our attention and to make us confused , do we still know what we have and what we should do? Now, here, to all of us, what we have is the opportunity to learn and to experience. And this opportunity could be a whole-life dream for many youngsters of our age .We are the lucky members. Do we have any excuse not to learn and do we have any excuse not to learn well ?
Time flies ! Four years of university life is quite short .Only once can we live ! Why can’t we realize it now so that we can make full use of every minute . Why don’t we focus on our studies and involve ourselves in the campus life ?If we don’t want to leave any regret , let’s get down to some solid work from this moment .Let’s start right now and let’s work together for our bright future and for our own happiness !
