Hello everybody,my name is tracy.I’m a lower intermediate student.Today,my speech talks about the meaning of our life.During my speaking,I hope you can think carefully about your life choice.
I have ever heard a little story.There was a fisherman who lived near by a beautiful seaside.Everyday he spent little time in fishing.The Rest time of the day,he lied on the sand basking comfortably in the sunshine.However a businessman proposed that he should spend all his time in fishing to gain more money.Then he had an opportunity to be a millionaire.he could sleep on the sand without having to work or think anymore.Obviously the fisherman didn’t need the businessman’s good idea.Because his present life was like this,sleeping on the sand no work.
Dear Madam or Sir,maybe you think the fisherman is too stupid.In the modern society most of the material things have to be bought with money,and it’s really difficult to deny the function of money.We need money for food,clothing,education,house,hospital and transportation,etc.Our economic burden is on the rise.We all face many kinds of temptations.It often happens that a beautiful girl gets married for money in our daily life.The world is no longer a romantic place.
But don’t let the world win.Money is not all-powerful.There are many things which money cannot buy,such as time,happiness and health.You may be rich,but money can’t bring back your lost time.Please slow down your pace,and try to enjoy the different life view.It is just like the fisherman,his choice is relax,it is none of business with money.Only allow your own inner light to guide you seeking the life meaning,can you feel happy.Form your heart but follow with money.Your lives,you decide.
