Good morning ladies and gentlemen. today i’m very glad to be here with you to share my stories and opinions about reading. i love reading from the bottom of my heart. and i do learn a lot from books. i know the wonderful stories of great heroes in history, secrets of nature, mysteries of ufo and our universe. to me , books are like a faithful friend, always around me , giving me enjoyment and wisdom.
I remember when i was in primary school, ten or eleven years old, my father borrowed some books from the library in his school. those were among the greatest works of the world, including abrabian nights、the legend of deification, journey to the west, and the romance of the three kingdoms. these books were all written in ancient chinese characters but i tried to read the heavy books and were deeply attracted. from then on, i spared every minute to read whatever i could get. whenever i got a new book, i kept reading until i finished it despite time and place. i read books even in class or just a few minutes before the exams. in my mind, there is always an unforgettable scene: lying in bed, nervous but excited, my friend and i read a book together in the weak light of a flashlight , with a quilt on us, in order not to be blamed by parents. all my classmates thought i was crazy and gave me a nickname “bookworm”. so you can understand why i got my eyes shortsighted.
Till now, i still like reading as i used to. and i’m very pleased to see that my ten-year-old son loves reading just like me. i have bought him many books. whenever you come into my home, you can find books in every corner. but the place where my son and i enjoy reading most is in the toilet. so it often happens in the morning: one is in the toilet reading something comfortably, while another walking outside , shouting. for my age, i like to read magazines or short stories to get relaxation as well as inspiration.
Today we live in a world of prosperity. never before have we faced so many temptation from the outside world. never before have we had so many chances to enjoy our lives. we drive rather than walking; we go online to chat with people we’ve never met before instead of talking to friends around us. but there’s always something that cannot be replaced and forgotten., such as books. so i will allow myself to continue the journey in the ocean of books until the very end of my life.
Finally, i’d like to end my speech with a great philosopher, writer and thinker, francis bacon’s famous saying: reading makes a full man. studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability.
Thank you very much.
尊敬的老师、亲爱的同学们：
大家好!
我叫某某，是一年级二班的学生，很高兴能与大家一齐分享我的快乐，我这天演讲的题目是“我读书我快乐”。
如果你问我最喜欢做的事情是什么，我会毫不犹豫的回答，是读书!每当爸爸从书店里买书回家，我都会冲上去把书抢过来看。要是碰到我喜欢看的书，我会忍不住一口气把它看完。
我最喜欢看的书籍是《幼儿故事大王》，里面的故事可搞笑了，有《狼和小羊》、《三个和尚》、《狐狸和乌鸦》从这些故事里，我能学到许多做人的道理和优秀品质。我最喜欢的是《农夫和蛇》，读了《农夫和蛇》令我深受启发，故事讲的是一个寒冷的冬天里，一名善良的农夫，在路上看见一条要冻僵的蛇。好心的农夫将蛇放在自己温暖的怀里，蛇苏醒后，张口就咬农夫，可怜的农夫很快毒性发作死去了，农夫临死前，后悔自己好坏不分，最终送了命。
故事告诉我们必须要分清是非对错，不要被坏人坏事的假象迷惑。在生活中，我们要乐于助人，但是如果有坏人向我们求助，我们不要理会。还有，我们做人千万不能像蛇那样恩将仇报，对关心帮忙我们的人，要懂得感恩。
书是知识的源泉，读书是我快乐的源泉。读书能给我们的生活带来快乐，也能帮忙我们健康成长!我读书，所以我快乐!
谢谢大家!
