国庆节演讲稿

 Hello everybody，

Facing all of you on the stage， I have the exciting feeling of participating in the march of history.

About 170 years ago， China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats. It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. The policy of reform and open is the choice that has made all the difference.

Who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world; the fact that we have devised our own nuclear weapons;the fact that we have successfully sent our satellites into space，No.7 shenzhou manned space flight， which proves the successful development of space technology across the major milestone¹， and the fact that our GNP ranks to NO.3 in the world.

When it comes to celebrating the 60th birthday of our great motherland， I would contribute my individual and unique colors to creating a more diverse motherland.

The tranditional Chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our country.We won't let people down.

We will devote our wisdom and passion to the historic² cause of making this nation a greater and happier land for everyone of us.

Finally， I do hope everybody can try their best to become a worthy³ citizen of the country; I do hope everybody can become the backbone⁴ of our nation and make great contributions to our society!

That's all， Thank you !
