2019年小學生英語演講稿：理性選擇敢于放棄

　　A poet leads me to a branch road： on one side， there are lots of sweet apples， lovely and charming； on the other， there is a patch of thorn， what hides behind the success of struggling against the thorn is a splendid palace. I deeply know that if I choose the apples， I will give up a precious opportunity of becoming a queen； While if I choose to challenge， I have to say farewell to the apples. Which one should I choose？

　　Just like the branch road， we have to make a lot of choices during our lifetime. It is usually considered that we are choosing what to gain， to own， but in my opinion， we are just choosing to give up.

　　Choosing to be a teacher means giving up the life as rich as a business man；

　　Choosing to be a top student means giving up much leisure time in front of the TV.

　　Sure， it’s a torture， but we must judge carefully what is more important， then give up the others. Don’t think of them any more， just focus all your spirit on what you are doing.

　　I myself， who is standing here， have already chosen to challenge in such a great competition， so I have to give up ten days of normal classes in school and relaxation without pressure. But I am still pleased， because giving up properly makes me stick to my choice.

　　Let’s return to our branch road， which one will your choose？ I choose to challenge here！

　　一位詩人把我引到一個岔路口：一邊是甘甜的蘋果，鮮艷而誘人；另一邊是一條荊棘之路，但隱藏在與荊棘搏斗的成功之后是一座富麗的宮殿。我深深地明白：如果我選擇那些蘋果，我將失去一個可能成為女王的良機，與此同時，如果我選擇挑戰那些荊棘，那會很艱辛，而且我又必須與可愛的蘋果告別，我該選擇哪一個呢？

　　正如這個岔路口一般，生活中的我們面臨多種選擇。人們通常認為，我們在選擇去獲得什么，擁有什么，但在我看來，我們在選擇放棄什么。

　　選擇作一名老師意味著放棄了像商人一樣奢華富有的生活。

　　選擇作一名頂尖學生意味著放棄了許多在電視機前的閑暇時間。

　　當然，放棄的選擇是一種苦難，但我們必須用心審度，什么對自己來說更為重要，做出選擇，然后放棄其他，不要再回首想那些已放棄的東西，把精力集中于你正在做的事。

　　站在這里的我，已選擇了在這樣大規模的比賽中挑戰自我，所以我必須放棄十天的正常功課和沒有壓力的輕松感。但我依然高興，因為適宜的放棄棄之后，我更加專注于自己的選擇。

　　讓我們回到那個岔路口吧，你會選擇哪一個呢？我，選擇挑戰此地！
