I can’t remember whether I was nine or ten years old. I remember that it was the last day of my 4-H camp. I was looking in the mirror and checking my face for bruises (瘀伤) . The day before, for some silly reason, I had a fight with another boy. My head was still sore. We hadn’t talked since the fight, but only stared coldly at each other.
Still, I was in a good mood in the morning because I knew my mom was bringing some of her homemade pizzas as a treat for my brother, me, and our friends. Soon, I saw her walking towards our room. She had been bringing these pizzas to us every 4-H camp for years. I saw her smile as my brother and his friends all picked up the big pieces. She saved the last two pieces for me. I thanked her with a smile and started to eat when I saw that boy standing off to the side by himself. At that moment, something moved my heart. I walked over to him and gave him one of the pieces. We talked, laughed and ate. And for some reason that I didn’t understand at the time, the pizza tasted better than ever before.
I can see now that what moved my heart: A little miracle (奇迹) was working inside me. It was moving me to forgive (原谅)，to give, and to love, And T m So happy that I followed that guidance.
May you rally live then. May you forgive, give, and love. And may your pizzas always taste delicious.

The human brain is very small and light (only 2% of our total body weight), but it needs about 20% of the oxygen that our body takes in. We can’t think well if our brain isn’t getting enough oxygen, so always make sure there’s enough oxygen in the air when you need to learn or remember something!
No one can remember everything, but everyone can learn how to improve their memory. Here are some suggestions. None of them can make your memory 100% perfect, but all of them are helpful.
●When you want to remember something, tell someone about it. This way the new information becomes easier to remember. Iater on, just thinking about the conversation will remind you of the thing.
●Our memory works well when we’ re asleep. If you want to remember something, try going to sleep right after learning it.
●If you have to remember something big, break it down into smaller parts. It’s easier to remember 198756430387 if you break it into four smaller parts: 198-756-430-387.
●If you want to remember a piece of information, and you can’t, don’t get angry. Just relax and try again later.
●One of the best ways of remembering things is to make “pictures” in your mind—and it’s fun too! Scientists say that our, brain works a lot in pictures. So sometimes, if we want to buy many things including bread, flowers, gloves, a notebook, and oil, just make a crazy story with them as you like:
Lisa was hungry and was looking for some BREAD. She opened the fridge, and saw it was ful of FLOWERS. She decided to put on her GLOVES and leave the house. But she tripped over her
NOTEBOOK andfell on a bottle of OIL…
Let yourself be surprised by your memory!

Boys and girls，
It’s my honor to give a speech here. My topic is “the importance of learning English”. Nowadays, with the increasing globalization, English is becoming more and more important. Firstly, English is a “bridge” of communication between China and the world outside. A wide knowledge of English helps us learn more about Western culture. Secondly, millions of books are written in English. If we learn English well, we can enjoy more books and learn more about the world. Thirdly, learning English well can help us learn more about modern science and technology. Fourthly, as middle school students, we learn English not only for the purpose of going to university and finding a good job in the future, but also for the development of our country.
In short, English plays an important role. We must learn it well.
