本文是一篇法庭辩护词，作者george graham (1830-1904) 是美国密苏里州的一个议员，是当时杰出的演讲家和辩论家。本篇是他早年从事法律工作时在法庭上所作，其时他为一位因狗被杀而起诉的人做辩护。辩护时，vest 没有要求任何证词，只是凭借其辩论就赢得了官司。他辩词的撼人之处在于：拿出人类兽性的一面与狗人性的一面作对比，引起法官们对狗的感激和同情，以及对杀狗人的强烈憎恶。这不仅仅是一篇辩护词，也是一篇优秀的讲演稿，更是对人性的呼唤„„ gentlemen of the jury: the money that a man has, he may lose.it flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most.a mans reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action.the people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when succe is with us, may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads.the one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.a mans dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickne.he will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his masters side.he will ki the hand that has no food to offer. 单词注释: * jury：“陪审团”。 * turn against：“反目”、“反对”的意思。最好的朋友有时候也会反目成为敌人。 * rear：“抚养”的意思。用爱心抚养出来的儿女也会不知感激。那些和我们亲近的人、我们信任的人也可能成为traitors（背叛者）。 * prone：“易于„„的”。 * malice：“恶意”、“伤害某人的意愿”。有些人在我们成功时，随时都会跪倒在面前以示尊敬，而当我们遭遇失败时，会第一个恶毒地向我们扔石头。 * treacherous：“阴险的”、“奸诈的”等意思。上面提到的那些不知感恩和借风使舵的人都属于阴险的人。而狗却不是这样，狗在任何时候都对主人忠心耿耿，无论其穷富、身体健康与否。 * wintry：winter的形容词形式，表示“冬天的”、“寒冷的”意思。只要能靠近它的主人，哪怕是睡在冰凉的地上、任由寒风侵袭，狗都无怨无悔。 * pauper ：“贫民”、“非常穷的人”。再贫穷的主人熟睡时，狗也象守侯王子一样守侯他。 * outcast：“被抛弃、被驱逐的人”。当主人被世人抛弃、无家可归时，狗也总是形影不离。 篇2：英文演讲——狗 hello, everybody, first, lets think about several questions.do you have a dog? if not, do you want to have one? which kind of dogs do you like? today my presentation is about the dogs.i will introduce some famous dogs.after that, id like to spend 3-5 minutes on idioms and movies about dogs.at the end, there will be an interesting video.there are many kinds of dogs.the dog is playing an important role in our daily life.they are our friends. 4吉娃娃

今天我讲话的题目是：让我们一起努力，学好英语。
首先，我给大家讲个小故事：有一天，老鼠妈妈和她的孩子们正在院子里玩耍。突然，一只猫出现在他们的面前，朝他们“喵喵”地叫着??小耗子们吓坏了，想跑也跑不动。但老鼠妈妈却平静地说：“孩子们，别怕。看我的。”然后，她冲着猫咆哮：“汪！汪汪！”就像愤怒的狗一样。猫又惊又怕，赶忙跑走了。老鼠妈妈转过身来，骄傲地说：“孩子们，现在你们明白了吧？学习外语是多么重要啊！”
大家知道，英语是当今世界上最广泛使用的语言，其中英国、美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、新西兰等发达国家以英语为母语。世界上还有许多国家把英语作为第二语言使用，共计超过10亿人。也就是说，世界上平均每五个人中有一个人在一定程度上懂英语。从使用范围来看，在全世界的广播节目中，60%是用英语广播的，全世界70%的邮件是用英文书写的，全球80%以上的电脑网页为英语网页。因此，有人说：“如果不学英语，将会成为二十一世纪新的文盲。”
同学们：还记得吗？北京奥运会期间，我们在观看比赛时，看到的字幕是英语，听到的语言也是英语。在北京大街上随处可见的志愿者，出租车司机、宾馆、餐厅的服务员都说英语。我们的祖国越来越强大，中国要面向世界，面向未来，离不开英语。
同学们，英语是重要的，英语是美的。如果你们在老师的帮助下，用心学习，英语是有趣的，英语又是容易的。
