Hello, everyone. I'm very proud that I have been chosen to speak to you all today. I'm a bit nervous as I've never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows!
As we all know, this is the school leavers' party and it's time to say goodbye to everyone. We' re sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education and we promise that we'll never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all.
I'd like to thank three groups of people for the three things I've learnt while I am a pupil at our school. The three things are friendship, love and knowledge.
The first group is my friends and what I've learnt is the importance of friendship. We've worked hard together and we've even shared some difficult times together but we've also had a lot of fun. Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. Others will go on to senior high school and continue their close friendships. But friends don't have to see each other all the time. Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often. A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine. We'll always stay in touch.
The second group is our parents and grandparents. We thank you for the love you have shown to us during our years at junior high school, for making homes where we feel both safe, and relaxed, and where we can prepare ourselves for our school days. We also thank you for your help with our homework. How many of us owe our good grades to the suggestions you have made during those long evenings?
And finally, the third group is our teachers. We can never pay you back for your kindness, your patience and gift of knowledge which you have offered us. Sometimes you've made us work very hard. But you have always been fair and you'll always be our role models.
There's a saying from Ireland which is a favorite of mine: Strangers are only friends you haven't met yet. I couldn't say it better myself. So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success in the future.
Life is colorful. However, life sometimes plays jokes on us, especially when one has a bad day. Ryu is an unlucky one.
Ryu got up late in the morning. He set the alarm clock at 8:00 a.m. the night before because he had a job interview at a company today. But the alarm clock didn't ring. How strange!
Then Ryu sat at the kitchen table where his breakfast usually was, but it wasn't there. Instead, he found a note left by his sister, "I am really busy today. Make breakfast yourself." So Ryu had a quick breakfast of bread and milk. Then he rode his bicycle to the company for the interview.
When Ryu arrived, he was scolded(责骂) by the angry boss(老板) for being five minutes late. But he still got the job after the interview. Also, he was told to get to work at 9:00 a.m. the next day. That night Ryu went to bed earlier at 11:00 p.m., in order not to be late the next day.
The next morning, Ryu's sister woke him up at 8:00 a.m. But he wanted to stay in bed for five more minutes. He finally had to get up when the sunlight shone down on his eyes. He did everything like any other normal day. When he finished his breakfast, he found it was already 9:05 a.m. He was late again.
It seems that school children all over the world complain (抱怨) about their school food. What do students of your age eat for lunch at school in other countries?
Japan
High schools have dining rooms. They serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers or chips. Other children bring food from home, such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles(泡菜)and vegetables. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food.
The United States
A typical menu from an American school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one third of the daily amount(总量)of necessary nutrition(营养), such as vitamin A, vitamin C and calcium (钙).
Australia
Meat pies , sausage rolls (香肠卷) and hot dogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the country pays more attention to children's health, healthier foods have started to appear on school menus. Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red labeled (标注)foods, including cookies, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green labeled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, corn and watermelons, however, are available every day.
South Africa
Most of South African schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 p. m. and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches.
Fast food and fried food sell the best among students. As a result, it has caused a rise in obesity (肥胖)among children. But as more people begin to realize that being too fat may cause different kinds of serious illnesses, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition. Now students at these schools are offered lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbage, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes.
At the end of a writing class, I asked the students to share what they had written. We had a new student at the school, whose name was Johnson. Johnson had been with us for only a short while and was still trying to fit in, so I was a little surprised when he volunteered to read. I asked him to read, but inside I wished that the other students would not laugh at him.
Johnson began to read, ”If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad …” He started out loud and clear. He told how he had never seen his father. He told how he tried to be the only man in the house at such a young age.
I took a look at the students. I knew some kids liked to laugh at others. However, all of my students were listening. They were letting him do this, I thought. They were allowing him to share something.
“If I had one wish, it would be to meet my dad, so I wouldn't have to close my eyes every night just wondering what he looks like, ” Johnson finished. The class stood up and applauded (鼓掌).They all ran to Johnson with hugs. My eyes got wet.
This is why I teach. I teach because I can watch kids grow and laugh and learn and love.
Thai people are used to eating rice as a meal. Also, most Thai people do not sit down to eat a meal because they usually eat when they are hungry, especially kids and teenagers.
Fashion is full of culture. The Tang Costume stands for Chinese history and fashion culture, The Tang Costume got its name because China became known to other countries during the Han and Tang dynasties
In Australia, people celebrate the New Year from January 1st to January 6th. It is a public holiday and many people love to spend these days with their families and friends.
There are two kinds of schools in England. One is the state school where parents do not pay money. And ninety percent of children go there. The other is the private school where parents pay a lot of money for their children to go.
Whether they're good manners or not depends on where you are. Some East Africans spit(吐口水)four times as a kind of blessing(祝福). In parts of Polynesia, it is bad to be seen eating. They politely turn their backs on each other when they are eating food.

On the first day of school, the new teacher had a look at the name list of students. How (please) she was!
