Title: The Power of Education in the 21st Century
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,
I am honored to stand before you today to talk about the power of education in the 21st century. In this era of rapid technological advancements and globalization, education plays a crucial role in shaping the future of individuals and societies.
First and foremost, education empowers individuals. It provides knowledge, skills, and opportunities for personal growth and development. With education, we can acquire the necessary skills to enter the workforce and contribute to the economy. Education also fosters critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving abilities, enabling individuals to adapt to the ever-changing demands of the modern world.
Moreover, education promotes social equality and inclusivity. It has the power to break down barriers and create a level playing field for all. Regardless of one's background, education provides equal opportunities for everyone to succeed. It helps to reduce poverty, inequality, and social unrest by equipping individuals with the tools they need to improve their lives and contribute positively to their communities.
Furthermore, education cultivates global citizens. In this interconnected world, it is crucial to have a global perspective and understanding. Education enables us to appreciate different cultures, respect diversity, and develop empathy towards others. It promotes tolerance and fosters peaceful coexistence among nations. By educating the younger generation about global issues, we can inspire them to become active contributors to a more sustainable and harmonious world.
However, despite the importance of education, there are still challenges that need to be addressed. Access to quality education remains a significant issue in many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries. Gender inequality in education is also prevalent, with girls often facing barriers to education due to cultural norms and discrimination. As global citizens, it is our responsibility to advocate for equal access to education and work towards eliminating these barriers.
In conclusion, education is the key to unlocking the potential of individuals and societies in the 21st century. It empowers individuals, promotes social equality, and cultivates global citizens. Let us strive for a world where quality education is accessible to all, regardless of their backgrounds, and work together to build a better future for generations to come.
Thank you.

Title: The Role of Youth in Shaping the Future
Ladies and gentlemen,
Today, I want to talk about the role of youth in shaping the future. As we stand at the dawn of the 21st century, it is crucial to recognize the power and potential of young people in driving positive change and creating a better world.
Youth are the driving force behind innovation and progress. They bring fresh perspectives, creativity, and energy to address the challenges of our time. In an era of rapid technological advancements, young people are at the forefront of embracing new technologies and utilizing them for the betterment of society. They are digital natives, adept at using social media and digital platforms to raise awareness, mobilize communities, and advocate for social causes.
Furthermore, youth have the power to challenge the status quo and bring about social and political transformations. History has shown us countless examples of young activists who have played pivotal roles in shaping the course of nations. From the civil rights movement in the United States to the Arab Spring in the Middle East, young people have time and again demonstrated their ability to ignite revolutions and demand change.
Moreover, youth have a unique perspective on the future. They are the ones who will inherit the challenges we face today, such as climate change, poverty, and inequality. By involving young people in decision-making processes and giving them a platform to voice their opinions, we can ensure that their concerns and aspirations are taken into account. Youth empowerment is not just about giving them a seat at the table but also actively listening to their ideas and perspectives.
However, for youth to fulfill their potential, they need support and opportunities. It is the responsibility of governments, educational institutions, and society as a whole to invest in youth development and provide them with the necessary resources, mentorship, and guidance. By investing in education, entrepreneurship, and employment opportunities for young people, we can unlock their potential and empower them to shape the future.
In conclusion, the role of youth in shaping the future cannot be underestimated. They are the catalysts for change, the innovators, and the leaders of tomorrow. Let us embrace their ideas, empower them to take action, and work together to create a brighter and more inclusive future for all.
Thank you.

Honorable judges and dear fellow students,
Just as most people here,when I first saw the topic reform and opening-up policies,a voice came out,saying what a grand scale!Then those big events,such as China's accession to WTO,the launch of Shenzhou and the submersion of Jiaolong flashed through my mind.However,at this moment I stand on the stage as a member of Chinese youth,I'm not gonna draw a magnificent blueprint for you.What I exactly want is to find out the relation between Chinese youth and this era of reform and opening-up.
It is known to all that in the past 40 years,China has captured the opportunity provided by globalization and grown rapidly from nobody to the second-largest economy in the world.In this context,it could be said that we young people have had better resources than ever before.To be more specific,let's pick up some daily life's fragments: for example,one Sunday morning,you don't feel like going outside,so you pull out your smartphone and quickly order a takeout on APP to comfort your empty stomach.In another case ,there's been a discount on Taobao .After struggling with your equipment and the net speed,you finally got your favorite goods at the best prize,because the most complete supply chain and logistic chain worldwide will solve the remaining work for you,so all you have to do is waiting. Not to mention the increasing number of people going abroad,with a Chinese passport,they are entitled to travel around the world and come back home safely.
But now I wonder how many of you have rea
In other words,we youth do not take it for granted,the more resources we possess means the more responsibility we will shoulder.When the 95s were claimed to be the new youth in China and the first millennial stepped into campus,baton of the era has also been approaching.Although China is moving firmly towards its goal of rejuvenation ,deficiencies and problems still exist.So in this sense,we youth ought to grow stronger to sustain the potentiality of development.With the baton in hands,do not afraid to embrace the mercurial society ,do not afraid to change the future.So that as the new youth we could feel more emboldened to say that facing the reform and opening-up policies we are not only the gainers but also the successors!Thank you!

Reform and Opening-up : Dare to embrace the world
Good afternoon everyone, my name is Jack. It’s my great privilege to stand here and share my own perspective about 40 years’ reform and opening-up.
Through the long history of China, reform is easy to witness. Some reforms just shifted the rulers’ name yet had little influence on the society. Others, however, can be revolutionary and our reform and opening-up policy is one of them.
Born in 21st century, it is hard to have the exact feeling about the life before 1978.Luckily, I can grasp some information from my parents and my grandparents.
On a personal note, the most impressive change that has occurred during the 40 years is people’s concept of living, or to be specific, the concept of allocating their salary. For instance, Elder people like my grandparents always cut off their monthly budget and then save the surplus money into the bank account. While young adults are more likely to use the remaining salary to do some investment or with the loan if necessary. I did ask my grandparents why not follow suit, they told me it had risks that they didn’t want to take. Apparently, we stand in this period and all know that such kind of trade and investment is helpful to the economy ascent. Thanks to Mr. Deng’s policy, we can now dare to trade both domestically and internationally.
Beside economy, swift development in other aspects is also prodigious. As you can see, Skyscrapers stand in the city and huts are no more. Cars take the main avenue and bikes step aside. Various travel modes are available for common civilians. Imagine, what kind of condition we may live in if the reform and opening-up policy is absent? Do you want to live in the condition that was similar to forty years ago. Ok, back to the point, when mentioning transportation, you all know what I am going to talk about is our high speed-rail whose both speed and technology top all over the world. Dating back to 40 years ago, it is nearly impossible for people to imagine such changes can literally take place. Due to the reform and opening-up, I can now jump out of the well and embrace the world. Flash as 40 years may be, we indeed witness and experience the happiness that the reform and opening-up has brought us.
Therefore, as a freshman, it is my duty and also our duty to be explicit about our directions and master adequate professional knowledge which will be the basis of our contributions to the community and creating harmonious environment for the next generation. Do not be afraid that your contribution may not be considered as innovative as Deng Xiao Pin did, because it is the little parts that you have done that build up the world we live in today.
In the end, I have to say that reform and opening-up is a great fortune for every Chinese. Owing to the window it opens for us, I can now embrace the world.
That’s all. Thank you.
