The cheongsam is a female dress with distinctive Chinese features and enjoys a growing popularity in the international world of high fashion.
The name "cheongsam," meaning simply "long dress," entered the English vocabulary from the dialect of China's Guangdong Province (Cantonese). In other parts of the country including Beijing, however, it is known as "qipao", which has a history behind it.
When the early Manchu rulers came to China proper, they organized certain people, mainly Manchus, into "banners" (qi) and called them "banner people" (qiren), which then became loosely the name of all Manchus. The Manchu women wore normally a one-piece dress which, likewise, came to be called "qipao" or "banner dress." Although the 1911 Revolution toppled the rule of the Qing (Manchu) Dynasty, the female dress survived the political change and, with later improvements, has become the traditional dress for Chinese women.
Easy to slip on and comfortable to wear, the cheongsam fits well the female Chinese figure. Its neck is high, collar closed, and its sleeves may be either short, medium or full length, depending on season and taste. The dress is buttoned on the right side, with a loose chest, a fitting waist, and slits up from the sides, all of which combine to set off the beauty of the female shape.
The cheongsam is not too complicated to make. Nor does it call for too much material, for there are no accessories like belts, scarves, sashes or frills to go with it.
Another beauty of the cheongsam is that, made of different materials and to varying lengths, they can be worn either on casual or formal occasions. In either case, it creates an impression of simple and quiet charm, elegance and neatness. No wonder it is so much liked by women not only of China but of foreign countries as well.

旗袍是具有中国特色的女性服饰，在国际高级时装世界日益普及。
名为“旗袍”的意思是“长礼服，从中国的广东省方言进入英语词汇(粤语)。然而在全国包括北京在内的其他地区，它被称为“旗袍”，其背后的历史。
当早期满族统治者来到中国市区，他们组织了一些人，主要是满族人，为“旗帜”(齐)，称他们为“旗人”(旗人)，然后所有满洲人的名字。满族妇女通常穿的连衣裙，同样地，来到被称为“旗袍”或“旗帜的衣服。”虽然1911革命推翻了清朝的统治(满族)王朝，女性服饰幸存下来的政治变革，后来的改进，已成为中国妇女的传统服饰。
易滑，穿着舒适，旗袍很适合中国的女性形象。它的脖子很高，衣领关闭，它的袖子可能是短，中等或全长，取决于季节和味道。衣服的纽扣在右边，一个松散的胸部，一个合适的腰，和缝了从边上，所有这一切都将掀起女性形状的美。
旗袍是不太复杂的制作。也不需要太多的物质，因为没有配件如皮带、围巾、腰带或装饰用它去。
另一个美丽的旗袍，用不同的材料和不同的长度，他们可以穿上休闲或正式场合。在任何情况下，它创建简单和安静的魅力印象，优雅和整洁。难怪有这么多喜欢的妇女不仅是中国，但外国的。
Mother Nature is an exquisite and complex life-system. It's charm appears in the trees, stream, soil, insects, moss and fungus, all the things on the earth in different shapes, which are interdependent. When you get close to nature, please remember, each tree, stone and species of animals here has lived harmoniously for hundreds, thousands or even millions of years. When we pass away, they will continue to live. They are the real masters, while we are just the passer-by. However, the conduct we unconsciously do, such as picking, lumbering, tramping and abusing can probably destroy the balance of their life. Therefore, we must reduce our bad influence as much as possible. While you are enjoying the nature, do not forget please, the beauty of the lives also needs to be concerned with and to be protected.
Each life on the earth has a long and touching evolutionary story. From the origin, the lives of the human being are equal to those of others; they both are the composing parts of Mother Nature. Nevertheless, for some inexplicable reasons, the human becomes the spirits of all creatures. Of course, it is the result of the evolution, but still we should be grateful to all our companions in nature for the opportunity they offer.
In spite of this, humans cannot live without earth. They live on the earth, drink the sweet water, and enjoy the sunshine, the air, the sky, the fruit; the grains utilize the energy and so on. In a word, the human being cannot live without nature, and Mother Nature makes us grow stronger.
I do not like the word "Pet", but preferring the word "Animal" instead. I have been loving animal since I was just a little boy. When thinking of the "Pet Fashion", I always feel much annoyed. For the animals will be given a shackle and lose their liberty if they become someone's pets. Their natural attribution can be deprived, too.
Up to now, relying on their scientific power, the human have opened up too much and over developed nature, in order to fill up their growing appetites of wealth. They destroy the balance of nature, however, they don't realize, their own development and existence will be threatened. Therefore, our sights should be focused on nature and we should try to develop the concept of "keeping human and nature in unity".
We should lay emphasis on our education with consider cultural and natural emotion. To use the vivid example to wake up the conscience in people's hearts.
To love nature is to love our mankind. As the new generation who enter the new century, we should make efforts to love and respect nature, to treat it well and protect it. At last, we have the night to enjoy it.

it‘s my honor to have a speech here. we all know that autumn is a harvest season;it brings us achievements and celebrations. but this year is quite different. we are welcoming the 60th birthday of our nation!
what proves the growth of our country? what proves that our country is becoming stronger and stronger? of course，the changes，the avhievements.now we can touch the pulse(脉搏，跳动) of the social progress，the changes of clothing，food，the living conditions and so on. once my grandma said that in the planned economy，everything has its own certificate，“new dress” is only a desire and many children could only expect new clothes on chinese new year.
when my grandmother put on new clothes on new year‘s day， she would be quite satisfied and proud， because many children would come to appreciate it. at that time， new clothes are rare for common people. sixty years ago， it’s quite usual that a big family crowded in a small room. they put up a curtain separating the house into two parts， and sometimes there might be some mice. my grandma said they played only seated in bed and several children did their homework on a small table.
but now， good conditions， most families not only have a nice house with a lot of furniture， but also have more than one house. great changes have taken place gradually around us， especially after the reform and opening up. history tells us and tells future， dengxiaoping‘ construction was right. in ， our country joined the wto. then we launched the shenzhou v， vi， vii and chang’e spaceship into space， and held the beijing olympics. we still remember the yesterday of last year， when the big earthquake happened， the whole nation was shocked and moved. not only volunteers but everyone was devoted to help people in need. today we see a new look of sichuan people， the energy and hope of sichuan people. what a beautiful day!
as students， we are enjoying the benefits of the progress of our country. now we are studying in a garden school which has experienced one hundred years of unusual history. look， the bright classrooms， the tall buildings， the green trees and these energetic students! we should work hard， for our future， for our school and for our nation. and i‘m sure that a better life and a harmonious society are around the corner. have you seen them?
Everyone has their own dreams I am the same. But my dream is not a lawyer not a doctor not actors not even an industry.
Perhaps my dream big people will find it ridiculous but this has been my pursuit! My dream is to want to have a folk life! I want it to become a beautiful painting it is not only sharp colors but also the colors are bleak I do not rule out the painting is part of the black but I will treasure these bleak colors!
Not yet how about a colorful painting if not bleak add color how can it more prominent American? Life is like painting painting the bright red color represents life beautiful happy moments. Painting a bleak color represents life difficult unpleasant time. You may find a flat with a beautiful road is not very good yet but I do not think it will.
If a person lives flat then what is the point? Life is only a short few decades I want it to go Finally Each memory is a solid.
Young people are often unhappy when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don't understand them.They often think their parents are too strict with them,and they aren never given a free hand.Parents often find it difficult to win their children's trust and they seem to forget how they do when they were young. For example,young people like to do things without much thingking.It's one of their ways to show that they grow up and they can do with any difficult things.Older people worry more easily.Most of them plan things ahead and don't like their plans to be changed.
When you want your parents to let you do someting,you will have better successif you ask before you really start doing it. Young people often make their parents angry by the clothes they want,the music they enjoy and something else.but they don't mean to cause any trouble.They just feel that in this way they can be cur off from the old people's world and they want to make a new culture of their own.And if their parents don't like their music or clothes or their manner of speech,the young people will feel very lonely Sometims you even don't want your parents to say "Yes"to what you do.You want stay at home alone and do what you like. If you plan to control you life,you'd better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you.If your parents see that you have high sense of responsibility,they will certainly give you the tight to do what you want to do 。
As night fell, looking at the night sky, the stars. If every star represents every dream. Then the sky and stars represent the Chinese dream. A vivid dreamwoven into a colorful Chinese dream.
In the sky there is a experienced the vicissitudes of stars, it is the up and down five thousand years of history. From the creation of the world to ourhappiness, Pangu now happy life. Chinese dream through every day and night, flowing through every Chinese heart. No matter how difficult, or there will be after the vicissitudes of bright smile. All are past and gone! For truly great men look to this age alone. Collection time flows through it every China dream,war in the world, made life dream.
There is a shining star in the sky, that is the successful Olympic, Shi Bo, the Shenzhou ten launch China story. When the applause sounded a thunderous,when the beam eyes to China time. I know, at that time. China light emitting in every corner of the world. China dream continues, I dream of sight is still persistent, silently offer yourself a little power. This is a dream, a dream calledChina, one by each Chinese deep call dream. Every struggle figure I carefullyangle upward medals, listening to every sound near the China dream voice,and won the running time of honor, raised her hand to salute, shouting outtheir Chinese dream.
There is a bright star in the sky, that is my dream. My dream is to become an astronomer to space exploration. Morning, I looked at the sun. The fiery red sun hanging high in the sky. "Why does the sun is red?" Suddenly, a problemhowever adorable, I want to have a rocket to send me the sun, let the Sun toldme the answer! At night, I looked at the mysterious night sky, the stars with,bringing a moonlight fell on the ground, is so charming! Suddenly, the initiation of another question, "why do the stars shine? Why does the moon will shine?" I want to have a rocket to send me to the moon, let the moon to tell me the answer! In order to realize my dream, I will work hard, hard, hard again!
In the spread of the night, I stand on the ground, watching rich, strong and prosperous country. With a strong, a glory, a vicissitudes of life, a Chinadream, to create a better future.

Good morning， ladies and gentlemen
Today my topic is"Be more civilized to welcome the Expo"
As we all know， the next EXPO will be held in Shanghai in 21. We will have thousands of visitors here in our hometown， then how should we show our manners? Of course， all of us prefer to show our good manners， so we should pay attention to our daily customs， China is a traditional country with a long history. The young should show our Chinese culture and good manners to the world .I t is easy to say than to do ，most of us didn’t pay enough attention to “seven don’ts” sometimes they throw rubbish everywhere ，cross the road when the light is red .Although they know these behavirous are not good ，they still do it .I hope everyone of us can take part in this social practice .We should carry ourselves well ，respect our teachers and so on ，try to show our best manners to the world .
I think ，we should follow the next three points in our daily life :
First :Keep our clothes clean and neat ，too much make up looks unnatural for us .
Second :We should obey the old saying “See no evil ，hear no evil ，speak no evil .”
Third :We should be polite to others ，especially to the foreigners .When the Expo comes ，there will be a lot of foreigners ，we can show friendliness to them ，we can show the way to them ，say “hello “to them ，and I think our smiling faces are also necessary .
Show good manners to welcome the 21 Expo .
Are you ready?
That’s all .Thank you .

早上好，女士们，先生们
今天我演讲的主题是“更文明，更欢迎世博会”
大家都知道，下一届世博会将于21在上海举行。在我们的家乡，我们将有成千上万的游客，那么我们应该如何展示我们的礼貌呢?当然，我们所有人都喜欢展示我们的礼貌，所以我们应该注意我们的日常习俗，中国是一个传统的国家，有着悠久的历史。年轻人应该展示我们中国文化和世界的礼貌。我不容易说比去做，我们大多数人没有给予足够重视，“七不”有时他们到处扔垃圾，红灯时过马路。虽然他们知道这些行为不好，他们仍然这样做它。我希望我们每个人都能参加社会实践。我们要贯彻好自己，尊重我们的老师等，更好地展示我们的世界礼貌。
我认为，我们应该在我们的日常生活中的下一个三点：
第一：保持我们的衣服干净整洁，太多化妆看起来不自然的我们。
第二：我们要遵守古老的谚语“看不见，不闻恶，不说恶。”
第三：我们应该对别人礼貌，特别是对外国人，当世博会到来时，会有很多外国人，我们可以表现出友好的方式，我们可以展示给他们的方式，向他们说“你好”，我认为我们的笑脸也是必要的。
显示良好的礼貌欢迎21世博会。
准备好了吗?
就这样了，谢谢你。
