Test 1

Short Speech

Dear friends:

It is with great pleasure that we have come together today to take part in this joyous occasion

with this couple whom we love and respect so much. This day is beautiful with warm sunshine,

but the beauty of the bride, Jennifer, makes this special day even more remarkable.

Dear

Jennifer,

all

your

family

and

friends

here

hope

that

today

is

the

beginning

of

a

wonderful lifelong partnership with the lucky groom. We sincerely hope that your love will grow

stronger as time goes by and your family will grow too. On this very special day, we want to wish

you and your husband all the happiness in the world.

Friends

and

relatives,

please

rise

together

with

me

in

offering

our

sincere

the

coming year will be filled with peace, joy, happiness and love.

Test 2

Short Speech

As

everyone

knows,

English

is

very

important

today.

It

has

been

used

everywhere

in

the

world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade.

But I learn English not only because of its importance and its usefulness, but also because of

my love for it. When I learn English, I can feel a different way of thinking which gives me more

room to touch the world. When I read English novels, I can feel the pleasure from the book which

is

different

from

reading

the

translation.

When

I

speak

English,

I

can

feel

confident

from

my

words. When I write English, I can see the beauty which is not the same as our Chinese...

I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can

speak English very well.

Test 3

Short Speech

In

the

future,

the

possible

transport

system

in

China

will

be

the

three- dimensional

public

transport, with planes in the sky, maglev trains in the middle, vehicles on the ground, ships in the

rivers and seas, and the subways underground. Private cars will go through a process from being

encouraged to being limited because of the too large population in China that will make private

cars a disaster to both traffic and environment. In the future, different kinds of public transports

will

be

well

organized

and

connected.

For

instance,

the

traveler

will

have

a

typical

“

public

transport credit card

”

with which he can take all means of public transport without buying a ticket.

He may take subways to the railway station or the airport and change the means directly without

checking

out

at

the

subway

station.

All

in

all,

the

future

public

transport

system

will

be

more

efficient and convenient.

Test 4

Short Speech

I major in Civil Engineering. As a matter of fact, it is not my favorite subject at all since I

have

been

dreaming

of

becoming

a

software

designer.

Just

because

my

scores

of

the

college

entrance

examination

did

not

reach

the

requirement

of

the

major

of

Computer

Science

in

my

university, I was arranged to the Civil Engineering Department against my own will. Since it was

and still is a common practice in China, I was not hurt and even felt a little proud of being enrolled

in one of the top universities in our country.

Although the life in the university is much freer than that in the high school, I keep studying

hard, for I know study

is

my fundamental

task and it is not easy for

my parents to support my

higher education. I am the top student in my class and gain a scholarship each academic year. So I

am proud that I have done well in my study.

Test 5

Short Speech

In China there is a popular game that children play. The game that comes to my mind is an

old Chinese game called

“

The Eagle and the Chicks

”

. It is great fun, and easy to play.

When I was a child I played this game very often. The game needs at least five kids to start,

and the more kids participate, the more fun it is. One child will play the

“

eagle

< br>”

and another child

as

the

“

mother

hen

”

.

The

rest

will

be

the

“

chicks

”

,

lining

up

behind

the

hen,

with

both

hands

holding on to the clothes of the chicks in front. In the game, the eagle tries to catch one of the

chicks, who then takes his/her role as the eagle. The mother hen tries to protect her children with

her arms stretched.

“

The

Eagle

and

the

Chicks

”

enjoys

great

popularity

among

children

in

China.

They

definitely get great satisfaction in the excitement. In addition, they learn how to work as a team,

which is an essential skill later in life.

Test 6

Short Speech

Do you think it is necessary to learn the foreign culture when learning English?

It depends on the expectations of the learner. For most people, English is just considered a

tool

necessary

for

their

work.

They

learn

English

because

they

need

to

read

the

foreign

information on their business for reference. For example, an engineer learns English to understand

the

latest

information

in

his

area.

Therefore,

background

knowledge

about

English

culture

isn

’

t

strongly desired. However, for people who have higher expectations of their English proficiency,

foreign culture is a vital element in knowledge storage. After all, language and culture are not two

solely independent concepts. Anyway, learning foreign culture is highly appreciated and can very

positively broaden one

’

s scope, not merely within the area of language learning.

you.

Test 9

Short Speech

Dear friends, let me say something about the public transport in China. The public transport

is essential in China since we don

’

t have so many private means of transport as in Western

countries. The government has done a lot to promote the development of the infrastructure; of

course, transport is included. As you may know, a highway to Tibet was built just after the

establishment of the new China, and then several main railways. There was even a slogan during

the period of economic reform, which said,

“

Building roads is the precondition of getting rich.

”

Now we have efficient bus networks in large cities and high-quality highways linking all the

major cities and towns, the first maglev train is in motion, and last but not least, the booming

airlines have added to the efficiency of public transport.

Test 10

Short Speech

It

is

a

great

pleasure

to

have

you

visit

us

today.

I

am

very

happy

to

have

an

opportunity

to

introduce our company to you.

Our company was established in 1980 by Mr. Bruce Huang, the founder and first president of our

company. We have

been specializing

in

manufacturing electric

Hong Kong and Beijing, where about 1,100 hard-working employees are working diligently to serve

the

needs

of

our

As

a

leader,

we

are

now

producing

more

than

twenty

kinds

of

domestic appliances, including washing machines, fridges, micro-wave ovens and TV sets. Our R&D

group keeps on exploring new models.

Test 11

Short Speech

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It

’

s a great pleasure to have you visit us today. I

’

m very happy to have the opportunity

to introduce our company to you.

Our company was established in 1950 as a small state-owned company, but now we

have grown into a large joint venture. We mainly manufacture electronic goods, which enjoy

a high market reputation and export them all over the world. Our turnover was about US$$100

million

last

year,

and

our

business

is

growing

steadily.

We

have

offices

in

Asia,

North

America

and

Europe,

with

about

1000

employees,

and

we

are

working

gladly

to

serve

the

needs

of

our

customers.

In

order

to

further

develop

our

overseas

market,

we

need

reliable

agents to promote our products.

I hope you will consider doing business with us. Thank you!

Test 12

Short Speech

How should people be promoted at work, through experience or performance?

That

’

s a big issue in many companies. I

’

m not sure how I feel about this issue because I think

both experience and performance are important. I mean if you

’

ve been working for a long time I

think it

’

s natural that you would expect better treatment. On the other hand, I don

’

t think that it

’

s

right that experienced people should put little care into their jobs just because they think that their

jobs are well protected because of seniority. In my opinion, people should be promoted based on a

combination of experience and performance. If they do not perform well, they may be demoted or

even laid off, but if they do perform well, they will be promoted. Those people who perform well

but have little experience should be promoted but not too high because this will only discourage

those who have worked in a company for a long time.

Test 13

Short Speech

Good afternoon, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen!

It

’

s

my honor to stand here and give you a short speech, the topic of which is Glory and

concentrated

all

my

efforts

on

my

teaching

position

with

dedication,

responsibility

and

deep

love,

though

sometimes

I

feel

it

so

hard

and

so

lonely.

But

every time

I see the improvement in the students

’

learning, every time

I see the progress in the

students

’

bodies and mind, I feel I am the happiest person in the world.

Before

finishing

my

speech,

I

would

like

to

say,

“

For

us

teachers,

being

serious

is

our

attitude,

being

professional

and

practical

is

the

guarantee

of

our

teaching

efficiency.

For

us

teachers, devoting to the people

’

s education is the greatest glory and dream forever.

That

’

s all. Thank you!

Test 16

Short Speech

Welcome

to

the

University

of

Middleton

transport

information

service.

This

service

is

provided by the Students

’

Union of the University for the benefit of all students, staff and visitors.

The following is information about bus and train services, taxis, and parking for cars and bicycles.

There are regular bus services which link the three main university sites. A shuttle bus runs

at regular intervals throughout the day from the Main Campus to Castle Campus. Bus No. 81 stops

just outside the entrance to the Main Campus by the main gates and runs from there to the City

Bus Station, offering easy transport for students to town and back again. An additional service, No.

Test 17

Short Speech

As

we

all

know,

cooperation

is

very

important.

The

importance

of

teamwork

lies

in

the

significant effect that it produces, especially when being properly applied and managed. It creates

flexibility and coordination among members and enables them to use their talents and participate

in making decisions.

It

also

provides

a

great

deal

of

acceptance,

understanding

and

physical

interaction,

which

cannot

be

gained

individually.

That

’

s

why

members

rely

on

teamwork

to

get

the

feedback,

attention

and

moral

support

which

they

constantly

need.

As

a

result,

this

leads

to

a

great

improvement in the quality of work produced, making the process more fun and less frustrating.

Test 18

Short Speech

Should children be punished in school?

My opinion is that children should be punished but not too often. I think the best way to

deal with children is to guide them through their mistakes and to try to help them see their own

errors. I mean, punishment should be used, but only when children believe that they can get away

with something that they shouldn

’

t do. Punishment also cannot be the only way a child learns not

to do something, otherwise he or she will only act out of fear of consequences without knowing

whether it

’

s truly right or wrong. For example, if a boy passes noted in class and is only punished,

he may stop it only as long as the teacher is around. But when he comes to another class with a

teacher who

’

s not as strict, he might start doing it again. He hasn

’

t realized why it

’

s not the right

thing to do.

Short Speech

Test 21

Short Speech

In 1920 the median age at the first marriage in the US was in the early twenties. However,

this figure declined slowly but steadily over the course of the next 30 years to a trough of 20 in

1950. The age rose very slightly over the next 20 years to around 21 or 22 by 1970, but this was

still lower than figures in the earlier part of the century. Between 1970 and 1980 the median age

rose a little, and then continued to rise over the next 20 years. By 2000 it had reached an 80-year

high of over 25.

The figure for birth rates in the US over the same period shows a more dramatic change. In

1920

they

were

at

a

high

over

30

per

thousand

people,

but

had

declined

by

1940

to

the

low

twenties. This figure increased slightly over the next 10 years and peaked in the high twenties in

1950, but then declined steadily over the next 30 years to a low of about 19 in 1980. This figure

had not changed much by 2000, when it was continuing to be steady at around 18.

Test 22

Short Speech

One Idiom A Day Keeps Bad English Away

—

Saying

Thank You

Thank you

may be the most useful word in the English language. There are many ways to say

thank you

; this section gives

you the most common. Sometimes language learners are confused

about when to use the word thank and when to use

thanks

. It may help to understand that

thank

you

is short for

I thank you

, which uses the first person singular form of the verb to thank. In most

other

expressions,

the

word

is

thanks,

a

plural

noun.

There

are

lots

of

common

and

acceptable

responses to thanks, shown in the next section.

Thanks a million.

Thanks a bunch.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks much (or loads).

Many thanks.

I can’t thank you enoug

Dear Professor Moss:

I

Computer

Engineering. At the beginning of this semester, I registered one of your courses, African Literature

and

This

Because of your reputation and my enthusiasm in literature, I hope I could study this course

in next semester. I also heard that another course of yours, Chinese Literature, is held every Friday

afternoon. If the registration of this course hasn’t closed yet, I will be so glad to participate in your

class.

Sorry to bother you, your help will be greatly appreciated.

Dear officer:

On 01/01/2005, I am writing to inform you that I lost my bag on your flight and ask for your

help. I took flight CA983 from Beijing to Los Angeles. When the flight arrived at Los Angeles,
