Last week, I tookpart in an English speech contest which was held by our teachers. There weretwelve students in the final contest. I was one of them. Fifteen minutes beforemy turn, I picked my topic and prepared for it. I wrote down the outlines andorganized what I was going to say. However, when I stood in front of all judgesand students, I was extremely nervous. My mind was totally empty. Then I took　adeep breath to relax myself and started my speech. The result was not as goodas I expected, but I preferred to regard it as a challenge to myself, whoseprocess was the most important for me. I can learn a lot from this contest. I amsure I will be better next time.

 

　　上周，我參加了學校老師舉行的一次英語演講比賽�？偣灿惺�二位同學進入決賽，我是其中之一。輪到我的前十五分鐘，我選好我的主題并做好準備。我寫下大綱并組織好要說的內容。但是，當我站在評委和同學們面前的時候，我就很緊張，頭腦一片空白。于是我深呼吸使自己放松然后開始演講。雖然結果不像我想象中的那么好，但是我寧愿把它當做一次對自己的挑戰，過程對我來說才是最重要的。我能夠從這次比賽中學到很多，我相信下次我一定能夠做得更好的。
