英语演讲稿 篇1

good morning everybody.

angelina jolie and i are delighted to welcome you to the global summit to end sexual violencein conflict.

we began campaigning, as you probably know, two years ago because we believe the time hascome to end the use of rape in war once and for all, and we believe it can be done.

we are convinced this is an issue of international peace and security, that is central toconflict prevention, that it is fundamental to the advancement of women’s rightseverywhere, and above all that it is a moral issue for our generation.

for centuries the rape of women, girls, men and boys has been a feature of conflict andwarfare.

these crimes have been taking place on a vast scale without many people even being aware ofit.

and today the facts are beginning to emerge for all to see, thanks to courageous survivors,ngos, journalists, doctors and activists, many of whom are already here today.

we know how few of these crimes have ever been punished, but because of the impunity, theycontinue today in syria, south sudan and the central african republic, to name just a fewexamples.

what would it say about britain or any other nation if, knowing all this, we chose not to act, wechose to do nothing?

as was said of slavery in the 18th century:

now we know the facts, we cannot turn aside.

and so this week, we are bringing together here governments, experts, civil society, survivorsand members of the public here at the excel centre, in an unprecedented concentration ofeffort and attention on this issue:

today, we are hosting young people from across the world to discuss all the issues and to makerecommendations to the ministers, before the ministers get here.

tomorrow, over 1,000 experts and activists will take part in a multitude of events to addressissues from collecting evidence, to protecting children, to tackling sexual exploitation.

and on thursday, more than 117 countries, 70 ministers, several heads of state, many faithleaders from across the world will gather here.

we want this summit to shatter the culture of impunity for sexual violence, to increasesupport for survivors and to start changing the situation on the ground in the most affectedcountries. there are a whole range of practical actions that we want to achieve:

we will launch an international protocol that sets out how to document and investigatesexual violence, so that those on the ground have the best tools to collect information andevidence to bring perpetrators to justice.

we will ask countries to strengthen their laws so that there are no safe havens for thoseresponsible for warzone sexual violence, we will also urge all countries to train soldiers andpeace-keepers to prevent and respond to sexual violence more effectively.

we want countries to commit new funds for tackling sexual violence in conflict-affectedcountries like somalia and the democratic republic of congo, to do more to protect womenand girls in humanitarian emergencies, and to increase their support for human rightsdefenders who campaign for justice and help for survivors.

and i am pleased to announce this morning that the uk will pledge a further 6 million tosupport survivors of sexual violence in conflict – a further 6 million to help them rebuildtheir lives and rebuild communities.

but governments alone cannot end sexual violence in conflict, so this is much more than justa meeting of ministers.

we also want to help achieve a change in attitudes all over the world to these crimes – and youare part of changing those attitudes.

we want to shift the stigma from survivors onto the perpetrators of these crimes, so that they– not the innocent victims – bear the stigma.

we want to encourage men to speak out, we want to encourage men to speak out – to agreewith us that it is only a weak or inadequate man who abuses women. it is not, it’s not a sign ofstrength, it is the ultimate weakness and shame.

we want to draw attention to the hidden survivors of sexual violence, all those who have feltunable to speak out and who have suffered in silence including men and boys.

we want people around the world to understand the scale of the problem and the urgent needfor action, to recognise the damage it does to international peace and security and to bemobilised and inspired to work within their societies and with us to bear down on this terribleinjustice.

so each hour for the next 84 hours a british diplomatic post somewhere in the world will beholding an event to mirror what we are doing here in london. this event is round the clock allround the world. and i hope you will help us ensure that over the next three and a half daysthat this summit reaches the whole world.

we encourage anyone who cares about this issue to visit and to take part with us here: to seethe multitude of exhibitions, performances and films that are on show, and to join in thediscussions here physically and on social media.

i believe that foreign policy is no longer the sole preserve of governments, that we all need towork together in new ways to tackle global problems and this summit is an example of ourdetermination as the united kingdom to champion that.

angelina and i want to thank all the organisations, performers, activists and individuals heretoday for your inspiring work and your contributions to this effort, and we will urge all theministers to visit and see the exhibitions.

there are some people who say that these problems are so vast that our efforts will be in vain,but they fail to understand what governments, international organisations, civil society andpublic opinion can achieve when we all pull in the same direction.

from the abolition of slavery to the adoption of the arms trade treaty, we have shown that theinternational community can tackle vast global problems in a way that was once consideredto be impossible.

there is power in numbers and if we unite behind this cause we can create an unstoppablemomentum and consign this vile abuse to history.

with every injustice in the world, with every injustice in the world, a moment comes when thetide turns, when the pressure of public opinion and political will reaches a tipping point.

we have a remarkable opportunity over these next few days to build the momentumneeded to tip the world past that point of no return, so that through hard work andcommitment over the coming years we can remove warzone rape from the world’s arsenal ofcruelty.

we can’t do this overnight, we can’t do it overnight. for the british government, and forangelina and for me personally, this summit is not the end of the road for our work, it is inmany ways just the beginning.

over the next few years we must go on to show that what we agree here in london can make abig practical difference.

so in opening the fringe and the exhibitions this morning, we hope you will all work with us andbe part of this historic endeavour.

i am grateful to you all for being here.

thank you very much indeed.

chinese traditional festivals

as we know, we have lots of festivals, such as spring festival(春节), lantern festival(元宵节), tomb-sweeping day(清明节), dragon boat festival(端午节), mid-autumn (moon)festival(中秋节), double-ninth day(重阳节), new year's eve(除夕)and so on.

as for me, i likenew year's eve the most, because only in that daycan itake a party forall of my friends. we talk with each other sincerely, and we drink heartily(尽情地)。i enjoy this process very much.

between chinese traditional festivals and western festivals, i prefer the the former. because chinese festivals contain our traditional culture, we must inherit and develop(继承和发展) it.

recently, more and more chinese would rather to celebrate the foreign festivals, such as christmas day, easter(复活节),thanksgiving(感恩节),saint valentine's day(情人节),halloween(万圣节)and so on .

i think christmas day would not replace our spring festival. because spring festival is our culture and era of faith(信仰).

in order to protect and develop our traditional festivals, i think government should take more steps todraw people’s attention. for example, give people more vacation in traditional festivals and pay attention to traditional culture education.

英语演讲稿 篇5

Mr. Chairman, Senator Thurmond, members of the committee, my name is Anita F. Hill, and I am a professor of law at the University of Oklahoma. I was born on a farm in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, in 1956. I am the youngest of 13 children. I had my early education in Okmulgee County. My father, Albert Hill, is a farmer in that area. My mother's name is Irma Hill. She is also a farmer and a housewife.

My childhood was one of a lot of hard work and not much money, but it was one of solid family affection, as represented by my parents. I was reared in a religious atmosphere in the Baptist faith, and I have been a member of the Antioch Baptist Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, since 1983. It is a very warm part of my life at the present time.

For my undergraduate work, I went to Oklahoma State University and graduated from there in 1977. I am attaching to this statement a copy of my resume for further details of my education.

I graduated from the university with academic honors and proceeded to the Yale Law School, where I received my JD degree in 1980. Upon graduation from law school, I became a practicing lawyer with the Washington, DC, firm of Ward, Hardraker, and Ross.

In 1981, I was introduced to now Judge Thomas by a mutual friend. Judge Thomas told me that he was anticipating a political appointment, and he asked if I would be interested in working with him. He was, in fact, appointed as Assistant Secretary of Education for Civil Rights. After he had taken that post, he asked if I would become his assistant, and I accepted that position.

In my early period there, I had two major projects. The first was an article I wrote for Judge Thomas' signature on the education of minority students. The second was the organization of a seminar on high-risk students which was abandoned because Judge Thomas transferred to the EEOC where he became the chairman of that office.

During this period at the Department of Education, my working relationship with Judge Thomas was positive. I had a good deal of responsibility and independence. I thought he respected my work and that he trusted my judgment. After approximately three months of working there, he asked me to go out socially with him.

What happened next and telling the world about it are the two most difficult things -- experiences of my life. It is only after a great deal of agonizing consideration and sleepless number a great number of sleepless nights that I am able to talk of these unpleasant matters to anyone but my close friends.

I declined the invitation to go out socially with him and explained to him that I thought it would jeopardize what at the time I considered to be a very good working relationship. I had a normal social life with other men outside of the office. I believed then, as now, that having a social relationship with a person who was supervising my work would be ill-advised. I was very uncomfortable with the idea and told him so.

I thought that by saying no and explaining my reasons my employer would abandon his social suggestions. However, to my regret, in the following few weeks, he continued to ask me out on several occasions. He pressed me to justify my reasons for saying no to him. These incidents took place in his office or mine. They were in the form of private conversations which would not have been overheard by anyone else.

My working relationship became even more strained when Judge Thomas began to use work situations to discuss sex. On these occasions, he would call me into his office for reports on education issues and projects, or he might suggest that, because of the time pressures of his schedule, we go to lunch to a government cafeteria. After a brief discussion of work, he would turn the conversation to a discussion of sexual matters.

His conversations were very vivid. He spoke about acts that he had seen in pornographic films involving such matters as women having sex with animals and films showing group sex or rape scenes. He talked about pornographic materials depicting individuals with large penises or large breasts involved in various sex acts. On several occasions, Thomas told me graphically of his own sexual prowess.

Because I was extremely uncomfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, I told him that I did not want to talk about these subjects. I would also try to change the subject to education matters or to nonsexual personal matters such as his background or his beliefs. My efforts to change the subject were rarely successful.

Throughout the period of these conversations, he also from time to time asked me for social engagements. My reaction to these conversations was to avoid them by eliminating opportunities for us to engage in extended conversations. This was difficult because at the time I was his only assistant at the Office of Education or Office for Civil Rights.

During the latter part of my time at the Department of Education, the social pressures and any conversation of his offensive behavior ended. I began both to believe and hope that our working relationship could be a proper, cordial, and professional one.

When Judge Thomas was made chair of the EEOC, I needed to face the question of whether to go with him. I was asked to do so, and I did. The work itself was interesting, and at that time it appeared that the sexual overtures which had so troubled me had ended. I also faced the realistic fact that I had no alternative job. While I might have gone back to private practice, perhaps in my old firm or at another, I was dedicated to civil rights work, and my first choice was to be in that field. Moreover, the Department of Education itself was a dubious venture. President Reagan was seeking to abolish the entire department.

For my first months at the EEOC, where I continued to be an assistant to Judge Thomas, there were no sexual conversations or overtures. However, during the fall and winter of 1982, these began again. The comments were random and ranged from pressing me about why I didn't go out with him to remarks about my personal appearance. I remember his saying that some day I would have to tell him the real reason that I wouldn't go out with him.
