導語：如果你想改變世界，那么你必須改變你自己!下面是yuwenmi小編為大家整理的英語演講稿，歡迎閱讀與借鑒，謝謝!​

　　change the world? change ourselves

　　good evening, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.

　　it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.

　　it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.

　　frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with them.indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. (examples).but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.

　　there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.

　　with the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becom#from faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture. only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us.

　　at last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ,that is:if you want to change the world, then you must change yourself first.”

　　【參考譯文】

　　改變世界?改變自己

　　晚上好，尊敬的評委，女士們，先生們。

　　我很高興站在這里發表我的演講改變世界，改變我們自己。

　　引人注目的是，西方的節日日益變得越來越流行，而中國的傳統節日被冷落。不久前在北京大學和清華大學約10名醫生宣布，我們應該拒絕入侵的西方節日，因為他們認為西方節日作為一種挑戰我們的傳統節日和文化。

　　坦白地說，我不太同意，我們不應該忽視甚至拋棄我們的傳統節日作為中國擁有輝煌的歷史和燦爛的傳統。但是為什么我們不能吸收有意義的西方節日和文化呢?。

　　有明顯的原因，一些西方節日在中國如此受歡迎。另一方面，一些西方的節日，我們中國人不合理和有意義的事情，比如父親節，四月的愚人節等，另一方面，普遍的全球化使得西方文化在中國盛行。被這一趨勢，中國卷入西方節日和文化。

　　隨著世界的發展，文化交流不同國家和民族之間成為更加快捷和更重要。我們來自不同的國家，但我們是公民相同的世界，所以不同的民族優秀文化是我們保護我們的傳統文化在地球每個人的共有財產的唯一途徑就是拒絕外國的文化嗎?答案當然是否定的。我們應該做的是不遺余力地教育中國人去認識和珍惜我們燦爛的傳統，而不是拒絕外國文化。只有通過教育，我們才能樹立我們對文化的信心和信念。只有通過教育才能保持和提升的財富，我們的祖先留給我們。

　　最后我想說的一個著名的分享甘地和你們，那就是：如果你想改變世界，那么你必須改變你自己。”
