　　导语：在我们的日常生活中，我们有许许多多的选择，下面是yuwenmi小编为还在备考的同学整理的优秀演讲稿，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

　　In our daily lives, we have many choices to make, such as what to eat for supper,what clothes to wear, or what to do on weekends. At certain times in our lives, we need to make even more critical choices, such as which school to attend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. Yes, life is a matter of choice. Seemimgly, it means a choice of tangible things. But in essence, it means choosing a way of life. Life is to be lived, savored, and enjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.

　　Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the grave threat from the life-and-death disease--SARS. Yet, even during those dreadful times, some afflicted people remained optimistic. Instead of wearing neutral white masks, some people turned to colouful ones, and thus display a happy mood. And some creative people dubbed SARS to mean "SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING." I was deeply touched by their optimisim, nearly forgetting that we're still in a battle. people who survive these kinds of circumstances, (at some point)decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the overwhelming odds.

　　laid-off workers, typically regarded as the victims of economic advancement, are subject to desperation that being unmeployed has brought on them. But, encouragingly, we have witnessed some of them striving hard to rebuild confidence toward life and discover new opportunities for demonstrating their values.

　　Although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities, we do have the privilege to choose to live optimistcally,to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.

　　Every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day. As for me, I choose to be cheerful.

　　【参考译文】

　　在我们的日常生活中，我们有许许多多的选择，比如晚饭吃什么，穿什么衣服，周末做什么。在我们生活中的某些时候，我们需要做出更为关键的选择，比如去哪所学校，做什么工作，或选择谁做丈夫或妻子。是的，生活是一个选择的问题。看上去很，它意味着有形的东西的选择。但本质上，它意味着选择一种生活方式。生活就是生活，品味，享受，不浪费或抱怨。

　　我们几乎不能忘记我们的社会面临着生死疾病——SARS的`严重威胁的时刻。然而，即使在那段可怕的时期，一些受苦的人仍然保持乐观。而是穿着中性的白色口罩，有些人转向丰富多彩的，从而显示快乐的心情。和一些有创意的人SARS的意思是“微笑并保持微笑。”我被他们的乐观深深地感动了，几乎忘记了，我们仍然在战斗。在这种情况下幸存下来的人，在某种程度上，尽管有巨大的可能性，但仍决心继续下去。

　　下岗工人，通常被视为经济发展的受害者，受到失业带来的绝望。但是，令人鼓舞的是，我们目睹了一些他们努力重建对生活的信心和发现新的机会证明自己的价值。

　　虽然我们不能选择我们的外表，天生的礼物甚至避免意外灾害和苦难，我们有权选择生活的乐观主义者来说，我们热爱生命，拥有梦想，并去珍惜的希望。

　　每天早晨起床后，我们可以选择如何度过这一天。至于我，我选择快乐。
