英语演讲稿Super Heros学生演讲特辑之六：每个人心中都要有个超级英雄Super HerosDanielle WilliamsonSince the early 90’s, there has been talk of how media violence and aggressive behaviors have affected youth. Worried that violence was creeping into their children’s lives, a group of child care centers in Melbourne have declared themselves “superhero-free zones”, wherein children are prohibited from wearing any symbols or costuming of their favorite superheroes, as well as pretending to be or have any super powers. They claim that today’s superheroes aren’t suitable for today’s children, and “cause their imaginations to be stretched in potentially harmful ways.”Where will these daycare police draw the line? If a kid can’t be Superman or Spiderman, can he be Buzz Light-year? Is Spongebob Square pants a threatening archetype?At this rate, next, we’ll be seeing our primary school teachers frown across the desk and pronounce, “I’m dreadfully sorry to have to inform you of this, but your little Benny is showing signs of an imagination. It’s not the sort of thing we encourage here at the Modern Children’s Facilitation Complex. Yesterday, we caught him wearing a cape, and we’re fairly sure he was having fun”. The whole notion is completely wrong. Sure, I have to admit, I still have scars from those oh-so-vicious “batgirl vs. cat woman” battles, but I’m not any more violent for them. If anything, we should be pleased that kids aren’t trying to immitate such paragons as “Dubya”, or worse, Brittany Spears. In my speech, I will show that superheroes, or at least 3 of them, are excellent role models for children and even adults. In looking at Spiderman, the Powerpuff girls, and Harry Potter, we will see that superheroes aren’t the villains they’re made out to be.Lets look at my first example, one of the most well known superheroes of today, Spiderman. (1) As a role model, Spiderman spins an empowering web, both literally and figuratively. Why? Because he claims all his superhuman abilities are the results of “working out, getting plenty of rest, and you know, eating your green vegetables”. Just what mum always told you, right?Now, don’t get me wrong, he’s by no means perfect, as critics are quick to point out. He “takes the law into his own hands”and gives readers the impression that force is the one quick fix for all of life’s injustices. (2) Here we see Spiderman battling one villain, the Green Goblin, who wants nothing more than to kill Spiderman for standing in his way.Undoubtedly, as one anonymous critic, believed by some to be a follower of Rev. Jerry Falwell, points out, “There is every reason to believe that Spiderman is the underlying reason for the outward expressions of hatred and intolerance that we see in our everyday world.” Right- because we have so many primary school vigilantes. Aside from eating his veggies, Spiderman wakes up each day with a goal, a desire to give himself unselfishly and unconditionally to helping those in need. Spidey tells his archenemy, the Green Goblin, that he helps others simply “because it is right”. Furthermore, he realizes the fact that “With great power comes great responsibility”, a concept that is key in today’s society as the youth become more empowered. Despite his own confusions, doubts, and hurts, Peter accepts the truth of the advice and chooses to sacrifice himself for the bigger Self by helping others, even if it means turning down that extra lovin’ fromthe girl next door.In the case of my second example (3), the Powerpuff girls, Bubbles, Blossom and Buttercup, it was sugar and spice and everything nice- and an accidental dash of Chemical X, that made perfect little girls into perfect little girls who’s specialty is kicking major butt, and saving the world before bedtime. Indeed, these three girls are, despite their inherent power, and role as protectors of Townsville, still little girls who wear dresses and play with dolls. Bubbles is a sweet and loving little girl who likes to draw pictures and sleep with stuffed animals. Buttercup is the spitfire tomboy, fond of fighting monsters and teasing her sisters. Blossom, the leader of the group, is scholarly and intelligent, always respectful of her elders. (4)However, there are those who are a little skeptical of this mysterious chemical-X. “Drugs I tell you! Chemical-X…ecstasy…don’t you see the connection?!”exclaims one Indeed, these three girls are little more than glorified drug addicts-Right. Or maybe they’re “loose women cleverly cloaked in innocence!” as suggested by one Powerpuff hater, who seems to believe that “sugar and spice”is a much darker innuendo than we want to believe. But couldn’t this“chemical-x”also be the extra X chromosome they have? After all, the Powerpuff girls are good role models for young girls, especially when we take intoconsideration the fact that they are strong female characters capable of rational thought and conflict resolution.Together they are three young girls who have dedicated their lives to fighting crime and all forces of evil, (5) and usually win their battles against allmanner of maniacal villains, like the evil-genious Mojo Jojo, seen here, with nothing more than their cunning and wit. In this particular episode, Mojo Jojo steals some of the chemical X for himself, in hopes of developing superpowers of his own, however the girls are able to trick him into drinking the antidote serum, and then putting him in jail. In portraying three very different types of female as strong and capable, these super girls turn standard ideas of gender roles upside down. The Powerpuff Girl’s showcases a world free of stereotypes and exhibit’s the female role in such a world, where one can be both feminine and powerful at the same time. It goes without saying that this is key in a world where many young girls and women are driven to conform to certainstereotypes of what is desirable and what is required for power.Not all superheros come out of comics and cartoons, however; some, like Harry Potter, can be found in the library.(6) Harry is a young wizard at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, torn between a world he’s grown up in, and the world of magic. Harry is a person, and a hero, with whom most people can identify, and find comfort in. Either that, or he just pisses them off- but I’ve always said that if you can manage to anger the right and the left equally, you must be doing something right.He is kind, generous, sharing, confidant, and stands up for what is right, regardless of the potential repercussions for himself. He shows empathy towards those who are hurt, and respects not only his elder wizards, but his peers as well, muggle and wizard alike. In the midst of all this, he is also an ordinary boy: he has a rival, he pulls pranks, sneaks out, and even falls in love. (7) In one particular incident, Harry and Ron steal an enchanted car in order to return to Hogwarts on time, after the train leaves without them. Quite possibly the most important message that the character of Harry Potter conveys is that with enough will power, and a little help fromour friends, we too can do just about anything we want to. Well, almost anything at least- (8) I think Quidditch, is a bit out of the question for those of us without flying broomsticks and the enchanted golden Snitch. Here we see Harry chasing the Snitch in the championship match, and eventually securing a win for his team, Gryffendor.To those that claim that anything glorifying this world of magic will inevitably “fuel a fascination that leads to irreparable psychological and spiritual damage”need to take a step back and realize that more good will come of this than harm. After all, there are worse things Sally could be doing after school than burning love notes over candles in her room or concocting potions of kool-aid and vinegar for her latest crush to drink, right? In reading, or watching, as Harry continues to grow and mature, we see a figure that younger children can look up to, as well as one who might have a thing or two to remind those of us who are a little bit older.Superheroes are excellent role models. Children see in heroes what they yearn to see in themselves: the ability to overcome weaknesses, fear, or insecurity, and be brave, courageous, and kind. Children need superheroes, and what is more, so do adults. The word “superhero” implies somebodynot normal; better in all aspects. It also implies someone who is genuinely good, someone to look up to- not necessarily someone who is perfect. Remember, all superheroes are humans, whether they can leap tall buildings or not, and that is what makes them all the more spectacular as well as inspiring. In the words of PeterParkers’s Aunt May, “There’s a hero inside all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, make us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady and give up the things we thought we wanted the most. So wear your underpants on the outside, put on those radioactive lenses and let’s save the world!。
我的超级英雄英文演讲稿English:My superhero is not a fictional character from a comic book or a movie; my superhero is my mom. She may not have superhuman strength or the ability to fly, but she possesses the strength of love and the power to make everything better. From a young age, she has always been there for me, supporting and encouraging me through every challenge and triumph. She has sacrificed so much for our family, and her unwavering dedication and determination inspire me every day. Whether it's staying up late to help me with a school project or comforting me when I'm feeling down, my mom truly embodies the essence of a superhero in my eyes.中文翻译:我的超级英雄不是来自漫画或电影的虚构人物；我的超级英雄是我的妈妈。
她可能没有超人的力量或飞行的能力，但她拥有爱的力量和让一切变得更好的力量。
从小，她一直在那里支持和鼓励我，帮助我度过每一个挑战和胜利。
她为我们家庭牺牲了很多，她坚定不移的奉献和决心每天都激励着我。
无论是熬夜帮我做学校项目还是在我情绪低落时安慰我，我的妈妈在我眼中真正体现了超级英雄的本质。
第1篇Ladies and Gentlemen,Good morning/afternoon/evening. It is my great honor to stand before you today to deliver a speech on the topic of heroes. In the vast tapestryof history, heroes have been the threads that have woven together the stories of our world. They are the individuals who, in the face of adversity, rise above their circumstances to embody the very essence of courage and sacrifice. Today, I would like to explore the concept of heroes, their significance in our lives, and the legacy they leave behind.To begin with, let us define what we mean by a hero. A hero is not just someone who is celebrated for their exceptional achievements or the extraordinary feats they have accomplished. A hero is someone whoinspires others, who demonstrates unwavering dedication to a cause greater than themselves, and who is willing to make significantsacrifices for the betterment of humanity.In the realm of academia, we are often surrounded by heroes. They arethe professors who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of knowledge, the students who strive for excellence, and the administrators whotirelessly work to improve the quality of education. However, today, I would like to focus on heroes from a broader perspective, heroes who have left an indelible mark on the world.One such hero is Nelson Mandela, the first black president of South Africa. Mandela spent 27 years in prison for his fight against apartheid, a system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination. Despite the hardships he faced, Mandela never wavered in his commitment to justice and equality. His leadership and resilience inspired millions to stand up against oppression and to work towards a more just society. Mandela's legacy is one of reconciliation, forgiveness, and the power of hope.Another hero is Malala Yousafzai, the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate. Born in Pakistan, Malala became an advocate for girls' education at ayoung age. She spoke out against the Taliban's ban on girls' education and was nearly assassinated for her efforts. Yet, instead of allowingher trauma to define her, Malala used her voice to inspire change. She has since founded the Malala Fund, an organization dedicated toproviding access to education for girls around the world. Malala's courage and determination have shown us that even in the darkest times, there is always hope for a brighter future.In the realm of science, we find heroes like Marie Curie, a pioneering physicist and chemist who conducted groundbreaking research on radioactivity. Curie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, and she remains the only person to win in two different sciences. Her work not only contributed to our understanding of the universe but also paved the way for the development of medical technologies that save lives today. Marie Curie's dedication to knowledge and her unwavering spirit serve as a testament to the power of curiosity and perseverance.Closer to home, we have heroes among us, individuals who selflesslyserve others without seeking recognition. They are the doctors andnurses who work tirelessly in hospitals, the firefighters who risk their lives to save others, and the teachers who inspire their students to dream big. These everyday heroes remind us that heroism is not confined to grand gestures but can be found in the ordinary acts of kindness and bravery.The legacy of heroes is not just the stories they tell but the impact they leave on the world. Heroes inspire us to be better versions of ourselves, to strive for greatness, and to never give up in the face of adversity. They remind us that each of us has the potential to make a difference, no matter how small.As we celebrate the spirit of courage and sacrifice, let us reflect on the heroes who have come before us and the heroes who are among us today. Let us learn from their examples and carry their legacy forward. Let us strive to be the change we wish to see in the world.In conclusion, heroes are the cornerstones of our society, the ones who have shaped history and continue to inspire us. They remind us of thestrength that lies within each of us and the power of unity. Let ushonor the heroes of the past, support the heroes of today, and becomethe heroes of tomorrow.Thank you.第2篇Ladies and gentlemen,Good morning/afternoon/evening. Today, I am honored to stand before you to talk about the role of heroes in university life. As we all know, university is a place where we learn, grow, and prepare ourselves forthe future. It is a period of self-discovery and personal development.In this journey, heroes play a significant role in shaping our character, inspiring us to pursue excellence, and reminding us of the values wehold dear.Firstly, heroes serve as role models for us to emulate. In university, we are exposed to a diverse range of individuals with different backgrounds and experiences. Among them, there are many heroes who have made remarkable achievements in their respective fields. These heroes, whether they are professors, alumni, or even fellow students, serve as a beacon of light in our lives. Their dedication, hard work, and perseverance inspire us to strive for excellence in our own endeavors.Consider the professors who have dedicated their lives to teaching and research. They are the architects of our knowledge, guiding us through the complexities of various disciplines. Their passion for their subject matter and their unwavering commitment to fostering our intellectual growth serve as a testament to the power of dedication and perseverance. By emulating these heroes, we can cultivate a strong work ethic and a genuine love for learning.Moreover, alumni who have achieved success in their careers also serveas role models for us. They have faced numerous challenges and setbacks, yet they have persevered and emerged victorious. Their stories of resilience and determination remind us that success is not an accident but a result of hard work and perseverance. By drawing inspiration fromthese heroes, we can set ambitious goals for ourselves and strive to achieve them.Secondly, heroes in university life inspire us to pursue excellence. As students, we are constantly striving to improve ourselves and excel in our academic pursuits. Heroes around us, with their exceptionalabilities and achievements, serve as a reminder of the potential we possess. They encourage us to push our limits and challenge ourselves to reach new heights.Take, for example, the students who excel in their academic or extracurricular activities. These heroes demonstrate the power of dedication, hard work, and passion. Their achievements not only bring pride to themselves and their institutions but also inspire others to strive for similar success. By witnessing the triumphs of these heroes, we are motivated to set our own goals and work diligently towards them.Additionally, heroes in university life inspire us to pursue excellencein character. Character is the foundation of a person's life, and heroes serve as role models in this aspect as well. They embody the values of integrity, kindness, and empathy, and their actions inspire us to adopt these values in our own lives.For instance, there are students who volunteer their time to help those in need, or professors who go above and beyond to support their students. These heroes remind us that true success is not measured by material wealth or accolades but by the positive impact we have on others. By following in the footsteps of these heroes, we can cultivate a strong character and make a meaningful difference in the world.Thirdly, heroes in university life remind us of the values we hold dear.

Their courage and determination to fight for what isright serve as a testament to the power of moral integrity. By drawing inspiration from these heroes, we can stay true to our values and make ethical choices even when faced with difficult situations.Furthermore, heroes remind us of the importance of gratitude and humility. In the pursuit of success, it is easy to become self-centered and forget the people who have supported us along the way. Heroes who acknowledge and appreciate the contributions of others serve as a reminder to be grateful and humble in our own lives.In conclusion, heroes play a vital role in university life. They serve as role models for us to emulate, inspire us to pursue excellence, and remind us of the values we hold dear. By drawing inspiration from these heroes, we can cultivate a strong character, make a meaningfuldifference in the world, and become the heroes of our own lives.As we embark on this journey of self-discovery and personal growth, let us not forget the heroes who have shaped our lives.

It is my great honor to stand here before you today and deliver a speech on the importance of heroes in universities. Heroes, as we all know, are individuals who inspire us, challenge us, and push us to become better versions of ourselves. Inthis speech, I will discuss the significance of heroes in the university setting, highlighting their impact on our personal growth, academic success, and social development.Firstly, heroes play a crucial role in fostering personal growth. University life is a transformative period where we encounter numerouschallenges and opportunities. It is during this time that we develop our identity, beliefs, and values. Heroes serve as role models who guide us in navigating the complexities of life and shaping our character.Consider the countless individuals who have achieved remarkable feats in various fields. These heroes, such as Albert Einstein, Malala Yousafzai, and Mother Teresa, have inspired millions of people around the world. Their dedication, perseverance, and compassion have become the epitome of what it means to be a hero. By studying their lives and achievements, we can learn valuable lessons that help us grow as individuals.For instance, Albert Einstein's groundbreaking work in theoretical physics has changed the way we understand the universe. His relentless pursuit of knowledge and his willingness to challenge conventional wisdom serve as a reminder that we should never stop questioning and seeking answers. Similarly, Malala Yousafzai's courage in advocating for girls' education in Pakistan has inspired countless individuals to fight for their rights and contribute to the betterment of society. Her resilience and determination teach us that we can overcome any obstacle if we believe in ourselves and our cause.Secondly, heroes contribute to our academic success. In a university setting, we are exposed to a wide range of subjects and disciplines. Heroes from different fields can inspire us to pursue our passions and excel in our studies. Their achievements can motivate us to set high goals and strive for excellence.Take, for example, the renowned physicist Richard Feynman. His ability to simplify complex scientific concepts and his passion for learning have made him an inspiration to countless students. Feynman's approach to problem-solving and his love for science have inspired many to pursue careers in the field of physics and other scientific disciplines. By following in his footsteps, we can develop our critical thinking skills, creativity, and curiosity, which are essential for academic success.Moreover, heroes can help us build a strong sense of community andsocial responsibility. Universities are not just places of education but also hubs of cultural, social, and intellectual exchange. Heroes fromdiverse backgrounds can contribute to the richness of our campus life and help us understand different perspectives.For instance, Nelson Mandela, a hero of the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, taught us the importance of forgiveness, reconciliation, and unity. His life story serves as a powerful reminder that we should work towards creating a more just and equitable society. By studying Mandela's leadership qualities and his commitment to social justice, we can develop our own sense of responsibility and contribute to the betterment of our communities.In addition to historical figures, contemporary heroes can also play a significant role in shaping our values and perspectives. Social media platforms have made it easier for us to connect with individuals who are making a positive impact in the world. These modern heroes, such as activists, entrepreneurs, and influencers, can inspire us to take action and make a difference in our own lives.In conclusion, heroes are an integral part of the university experience. They help us grow as individuals, contribute to our academic success, and foster a sense of social responsibility. By learning from the lives of heroes, we can develop our character, pursue our passions, and make a positive impact on the world.As we continue our journey in university, let us remember the heroes who have come before us. Let us strive to emulate their virtues and work towards becoming heroes in our own right. Together, we can create a more just, compassionate, and prosperous world.Thank you for your attention.。
Today, I want talk something about the superheroes movies. When we were children, maybe most of us, especially the boys, had heard about or had already watched these movies like: Superman, X-man, Spiderman and other superheroes movies from America. But when there are more and more superhero movies has been filmed, there are more criticism, too. Someone said that these heroes are always America, all the different stories have the same mode. And these movies are just the culture aggression of America. But today I want to say maybe some superheroes movies are rubbish but not all of them. We shouldn’t assess them on the surface but dig them more deeply, discover something like the main theme, the metaphor, the technology in filming, the originality and so on. So today, my topic is Superheroes movies should not be scorned.When we talk about the superhero movies we must mention two big comics companies in America, one is DC which is the superman comes from and the other is Marvel. These heroes are from Marvel：…….. Then I want to introduce some of them for you to help you to understand my idea. The first one is Hulk….…the second is IM……the third is CA. Thor is…he is the son …he lives in a plante named Asgard. … Thor has a brother, Loki. This is Loki. In the film Thor, they have to against each other. Of course these two paragraphs is not written by myself. The author is Tom Hiddleston.He is an actor. He played Loki in the movie Thor. I think he is a really remarkable man, he was a student of Cambridge, he has a good understanding on drama（here drama means戏剧）like the plays written by Shakespeare. He is one of the reasons drag me back to the superhero movies. Ok let’s go back to my topic. The reasons I think the superhero movies shouldn’t be scorned can be talked into three parts. First of all is the superhero. To these movies, we are audients. We are angry or scared about what the bad guys have done and feel happy and release when the superhero finally defeat the strong enemies. When we are watching these movies, we are addicted in the intense situations. These emotions I said above is exactly how we are feeling at that time. I won’t feel bored or ridiculous or something else but become emotional, just like that I won’t say “look! That stupid muscle man comes again!”but respect him because in the movies’world he is absolutely a hero. Heroes bring us peace justice hope and many other positive things. We worship these heroes because of their outstanding abilities or this is just because we are born to be——worshippers of the strong. So superheroes become role models of kids even some adults like the in-class reading we have learned in U5.The second is the acting of the actors. The superheroes they acted are more humanized. They all have their own characteristics, they should face their own confusing and conquer themselives first then they cansave the world. This is also the spotlight of the superheroes.The third of course is the special effects. As the technology is developing, now we can watch movies in 3D. it is really a visual feast for us. With the help of technology, these fantastic ideas of superheroes’ abilities can be explained so vividly and specifically as well as those fighting scenes.At last I want to introduce a movies I have watched two weeks ago. The Avengers. It’s talked about that Loki want to start a war on the earth to help him rule the human beings. And the superheroes are called together as a team named Avengers to stop Loki. Here is a movie trailer for you. Thank you for listening to my speech.。
