英语演讲稿：我是中国人
I am proud of being a Chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind.
Ive learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers.
Ive learned about the Great Wall and the Yangtze River.
Ive learned about Zhang Heng(张衡)and Ive learned about Zheng He(郑和) says the Yellow River Civilization has vanished(消失)？I know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇迹)on this fertile land and were still making miracles.
Who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our GNP ranks No.
7 in the world? We have experienced the plunders (掠夺) by other nations, and we have experienced the war.
Yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----China, unyielding and unconquerable!I once came across an American tourist.
She said, “China has a history of five thousand years, but the US only has a history of 200 years.
Five thousand years ago, China took the lead in the world, and now it is the US that is leading.”My heart was deeply touched by these words.
It is true that were still a developing nation, but it doesnt mean that we can despise (鄙视) ourselves.
We have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of.
We have reasons to say proudly： we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑战) are great, but our will is even greater.
I am Chinese.
I have inherited (继承) black hair and black eyes.
I have inherited the virtues of my ancestors.
I have also taken over responsibility.
I am sure, that wherever I go, whatever I do, I shall never forget that I am Chinese!Thank you.
