中秋节的英语演讲稿 篇1
A: Hello, everyone! I am very glad to share my topic with you. Then wed like to talk something about Mid-Autumn festival today. My name is xx.
B: My name is xx. So, xx, can you make some introductions about the Mid-Autumn festival?
A: Okay. The Mid-Autumn festival is a very important Chinese festival. It falls on the 15th day of August. It is a time for family members and loved ones to congregate and enjoy the full moon, which is an
auspicious symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. On the evening there will be a big family dinner. After dinner, people usually taste delicious moon cakes of many varieties with a good cup of hot
Chinese tea, while children run around with their brightly-lit lanterns. They can also look back on the past and look forward to the future together. By the way, do you know what the meaning behind this holiday is?
B;Mid-Autumn festival probably began as a harvest festival. The festival was later given a mythological flavor with legends of Chang-E, the beautiful lady in the moon. According to Chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns circling over it. One day, all 10 suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their heat. The earth was saved when a strong archer, Hou Yi, succeeded in shooting down 9 of the
suns. As his reward, the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hou Yi the
Elixir of Immortality .But his wife, Chang-E drank it. Then she became the Moon Fairy. Thus started the legend of the lady in the moon to whom young Chinese girls would pray and people would sacrifice at the Mid-Autumn Festival.
A: Referred to legends, there is another one I want to share with all of you. During the Yuan Dynasty, China was ruled by the Mongolian people. The king of them was very cruel. An underground group led by Zhu Yuanzhang was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message. When the cake was opened and the message read,
an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. What followed was the establishment of the Ming Dynasty. Today, moon cakes are eaten to commemorate this event.
B: Wow! How clever he is! In my hometown lies in the Minnan area, there is a custom in Mid-Autumn Festival called Moon-cake gambling. All the game requires are six dice and a china bowl. Just throw the dice into the bowl and the different pips you get stand for different ranks of awards you will win. The activity was invented by Zheng Chenggong to help relieve homesickness among his troops during Mid-Autumn Festival. Now, Xiamen people still believe that the person, who wins "Zhuangyuan" in the game, will have good luck that
year. And the Mid-Autumn Festival is the second important holiday in Xiamen besides Spring Festival.
A: Sounds interesting! The winner of Moon-cake gambling can taste delicious moon cakes! I usually looked forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival during childhood because I could eat various tastes of moon cakes. The custom of eating moon cakes appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Ancient moon cake was eaten as a sacrifice (祭品)in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Due to the passage of time, the moon cake has been changed into the Mid-Autumn Festival’s food and gifts. In the enening, family members worship the moon, and then the housewife cut moon cake by the members of the family. Who shares moon cake more averagely, who will have more good luck.
? B: I also enjoy moon cakes. It is believed that the moon is at her brightest on this night. The round shape of moon cakes symbolizes not only the moon but also the unity of the family. By the way, except moon cakes, I also hear that in Taiwan, barbecuing meat outdoors has become a widespread way to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Different areas celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in different ways, but the wishes of enjoying the moon and getting together with families are the same. As the moon rises, we share it at the same time no matter we
are together or far apart.
A: That’s all. Thank you for listening.
中秋节的英语演讲稿 篇2
the mid-autumn festival has all interesting history. long ago in one of the dynasties of china there was a king who was very cruel to the people and did not manage the country well. the people were so angry that some brave ones suggested killing the king. so they wrote notes telling about the meeting place and time and put them into cakes. on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month every person was told to buy the cakes. when they ate them they discovered the notes. so they gathered together to make a sudden attack on the king. from then on the chinese people celebrate on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month and eat "moon cakes" in memory of that important event. when the mid-autumn festival is near, shop windows are
beautifully decorated. many "moon cakes" are displayed for people to buy. people send presents such aswine, fruits and "moon cakes" to their friends and relatives. in the evening of the day, they have a feast. after the feast, they go out to the garden to look at the moon. the children run and laugh on the streets.
it is believed that the moon is at her brightest on this night. many poems have been written about it, and poets are never tired of reading and writing such poems. in chinese literature, the moon of the mid autumn festival has been compared to a looking-glass, a jade rabbit, and so on. it seems that chinese literature takes far more interest in the moon than in the sun.

中秋节的英语演讲稿 篇5
woo! i am so nervous. you know it is my first time for making a english speech, especially face to so many colleagues, leaders and our boss. yeah!it is really a challenge for me!
okey! wangyongli is here. i am from enginnerring department.. and my topic is hope keep your direction and never give up!
i feel really honored to make a speech here.
at this joyful mid-autumn festival, even though we cannot return home to spend this beautiful night with our family, we can get together here and enjoy the harmony and delight.
as a matter of fact, the whole company is a large family. since i joined in this warm family one year ago, i have learned much from the work. i learned how to adapt myself into the ever-changing environment in the possibly shortest time. i learned how to keep close coordination with others. i learned how to open my mind to new things and different opinions and accept others’ valuable advice modestly. i learned how to manage my time more effectively.
“i am a fresher! ”i always say to myself. but when i saw the really new partners. i realisied i have been here for 1 year!
for the time being here, i got a lot of help from my colleagues and leaders! i appreciate your honest help sincerely! and i hope you all can give me lasting help and guidance in the coming days!
maybe i seem less mature or experiences than my most colleagues. but i still believe age is not important. compared with age, passion energy and confidence are more significant!
admittedly, life has its ups and downs, its peaks and valleys. so i encountered certain difficulties in the work. however, i strongly believe the best way to success is to keep your direction and stick to your goal. direction means objectives. the right direction is like a lamp. this lamp can guide you in darkness and help you overcome obstacles on your way. otherwise, you will easily get lost or hesitate to go ahead.
i never fear difficulties or failures. because i believe success is going from failure to failure without losing passion. in fact, the ultimate failure is not trying, for it means you can never make progress toward your goals. as long as you keep trying and go ahead toward your direction, you will succeed and have a bright future. just remember never give up or lose hope because nothing is too easy. rainy days will end and the sky will be beautiful again.
in short, everyone should have a direction and keep this direction, no matter what difficulties he or she will encounter.
finally, i want to take this opportunity to wish you all good health and success in your career.
and you know it is a specially day, which is the mid-autumn festival, so i wish you all and your family a happy mid-autumn festival.
thanks so much! that is all!
