Question

高一英语课前三分钟演讲（要短，易懂，笑话也行）

Answer 1

　　Many years after receiving my graduate degree, I returned to the State University of New York at Binghamton as a faculty member. One day in a crowded elevator, someone remarked on its inefficiency. I said the elevators had not changed in the 20 years since I began there as a student.

　　When the door finally opened, I felt a compassionate pat on my back, and turned to see an elderly nun smiling at me. "You'll get that degree, dear," she whispered. "Perseverance is a virtue."
　　美 德

　　获取研究生学位多年以后，我回到位于宾翰顿的纽约州立大学当教员。一天，电梯里很拥挤，有人抱怨电梯效率太低。我说自我在那里当学生起，20年来电梯一直没有换过。

　　最后当电梯门打开时，我感到有人在我的背上同情地拍了一下，回过头来我看到一位年长的修女正在朝我微笑。“你会拿到学位的，亲爱的，”她低声说道：“坚持不懈是一种美德。”

　　A mother mouse
　　老鼠的第二语言也重要
　　A mother mouse was out for a stroll with her babies when she
　　spotted a cat crouched behind a bush. She watched the cat, and
　　the cat watched the mice.
　　Mother mouse barked fiercely, "Woof, woof, woof!" The cat
　　was so terrified that it ran for it's life.
　　Mother mouse turned to her babies and said, "Now, do you
　　understand the value of a second language?"

　　一只母老鼠带着孩子出来散步，突然她看见一只猫正在灌木丛中虎视耽耽。
　　母老鼠向着猫叫道：“汪，汪，汪”，猫听了非常害怕，拼命跑走了。
　　母老鼠回过头洋洋自得的对孩子说：“现在你知道外语的重要性了吧。”
