亲爱的同学们：
Dear students
大家好，今天我演讲的题目是《微笑面对挫折》。
Hello, everyone. The title of my speech today is smile in the face of setbacks.
今天是9月X号，是我们步入新学年，新初三的开端。也许，在这一年中，我们会付出无法估量的艰辛，但我们同时会收获成功后的喜悦和挫折后的沮丧。微笑着面对挫折，是我们在这一学年中勇夺胜利的法宝。只有时时刻刻微笑着才能撑起你的信心，扬起自信的风帆，一直拼搏下去，使你成为困难面前的勇士！
Today is September x, the beginning of our new school year and new junior three. Perhaps, in this year, we will pay immeasurable hardships, but we will also reap the joy of success and frustration after setbacks. Smiling in the face of setbacks is our magic weapon to win in this academic year. Only by smiling all the time can you support your confidence, raise the sails of self-confidence, keep fighting, and make you a warrior in front of difficulties!
爱迪生为了研究，失败过无数次；居里夫人为了“镭”的研制成功，遭受过许多挫折；袁隆平为了“杂交水稻”，经受了难以想象的打击。然而，他们挺过来了，他们微笑着面对，微笑着成功。
Edison has failed numerous times for research; Madame Curie has suffered many setbacks for the success of the research on radium; Yuan Longping has suffered unimaginable blow for hybrid rice. However, they survived. They faced it with a smile and succeeded with a smile.
如果大家把我们现在遇到的困难认为是人生中最大的挫折的话，那也只是大题小做。我们对于挫折的理解，就像对爱情的朦胧无知一样，正真的挫折可能还比我们现在的情形复杂上千，上万倍。看一下林肯的一生，你便会理解什么叫做正真的挫折和微笑的力量。
If you consider the difficulties we are facing as the biggest setback in our life, it is just a fuss. Our understanding of setbacks is just like our hazy ignorance of love. The true setbacks may be thousands or thousands of times more complicated than our current situation. If you look at Lincoln's life, you will understand what is the power of true setbacks and smiles.
亚伯拉罕·林肯，美国第十六界总统：22岁，生意失败。23岁，竞选议员失败。24岁，生意再次失败。25岁，当选议员。26岁，情人去世。27岁，精神崩溃。29岁，竞选州议长失败。37岁，当选国会众议员。39岁，国会众议员连任失败。46岁，竞选参议员失败。47岁，竞选副总统失败。49岁，竞选参议员再次失败。51岁，当选美国总统。
Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States: 22 years old, business failure. At the age of 23, he failed to run for Parliament. At 24, business failed again. 25 years old, elected member. 26 years old, lover died. 27 years old, a mental breakdown. At 29, he failed to run for the state speaker. 37 years old, elected to the house of Representatives. At the age of 39, the congressman was reelected. At 46, he failed to run for the Senate. At 47, he failed to run for vice president. At the age of 49, the campaign for senator failed again. 51 years old, elected president of the United States.
巴尔扎克说过：“世界上的事情永远不是绝对的，结果因人而异，苦难对于天才是一块垫脚石，对能干的人是一笔财富，对于弱者是一个万丈深渊。”我们要微笑的面对挫折，面对失败，对于生活的强者来说，挫折是永远的垫脚石。
Balzac said: "things in the world are never absolute. The results vary from person to person. Suffering is a stepping stone for genius, a wealth for capable people and an abyss for the weak." We have to smile in the face of setbacks, in the face of failure, for the strong in life, setbacks are a stepping stone forever.
拿破仑说过“避免失败的最好方法，就是决心获得下一次成功。”可见，面对挫折的勇气，便是从微笑中汲取的。我们不能只停留在失败的痛苦当中，做无所谓的挣扎。坚信你的痛苦只有过去，而明天是充满希望的！微笑面对挫折，迎接新一次的挑战。生活中，没有永远的胜者，也没有永远的败者！
Napoleon said, "the best way to avoid failure is to be determined to succeed next time." It can be seen that the courage to face setbacks is drawn from a smile. We can't just stay in the pain of failure and do the indifferent struggle. Believe that your pain is only in the past, and tomorrow is full of hope! Smile in the face of setbacks and meet new challenges. In life, there are no winners and losers forever!
微笑像阳光，给大地带来温暖；微笑像雨露，滋润着大地。微笑拥有和爱心一样的魔力，可以使饥寒交迫的人感到人间的温暖；可以使走入绝境的人重新看到生活的希望；可以使孤苦无依的人获得心灵的慰藉；还可以使心灵枯萎的人感到情感的滋润。幸福的诠释是微笑；快乐的意义是微笑；温暖的真谛是微笑；挫折的鼓励是微笑；坚强的象征仍然是微笑。那么，在面对充满挫折，艰辛之旅的初三生活时，我们何不多一些微笑呢？
Smile like sunshine, bring warmth to the earth; smile like rain, moisten the earth. Smile has the same magic power as love, which can make the hungry and cold people feel the warmth of the world; it can make the desperate people see the hope of life again; it can make the lonely and helpless people obtain the spiritual comfort; it can also make the heart withered people feel the emotional moisture. The interpretation of happiness is smile; the meaning of happiness is smile; the essence of warmth is smile; the encouragement of frustration is smile; the symbol of strength is still smile. So, in the face of setbacks, hard journey of the third day of life, why don't we smile more?
实际上，这将是我们人生中的第一次挑战，一次挑战所有的艰辛，所有的挫折的旅途。
In fact, this will be the first challenge in our life, a challenge to all the hardships, all the frustrations of the journey.
挫折的含义很是广泛：每一次上课被老师叫起，手足无措，是一种挫折；当你作业中的叉号比别人多时，是一种挫折；体育课上，你的球技比别人差了一大截时，也是一种挫折；考试后，你的三位数比你同水平的人低，也是一种挫折。
The meaning of frustration is very extensive: every class is called by the teacher, at a loss, it is a kind of frustration; when you have more cross marks in your homework than others, it is a kind of frustration; in physical education class, when your ball skill is a big part worse than others, it is also a kind of frustration; after the exam, your three digits are lower than your same level, it is also a kind of frustration.
挫折出现后，可置内心的百感交集于不顾，抓住自己内心的信心与乐观的力量，冷静的去思考，沉着的去面对！
After setbacks appear, you can ignore the mixed feelings in your heart, grasp your inner confidence and optimistic power, think calmly and face calmly!
同学们，生活就是由这许许多多的挫折构成。生活的阳光来自于每个人内心的百折不挠，顽强不屈的抗争精神。不愿臣服于做挫折的奴隶，而要成为它的主人。这就是我们的使命！
Students, life is made up of so many setbacks. The sunshine of life comes from everyone's indomitable and indomitable fighting spirit. Not willing to be slaves to setbacks, but to be its master. This is our mission!
每一次挫折都是一笔财富，当我们成功的克服挫折，并积累了相当丰富的经验后，我们就会在未来的中考考场，乃至整个人生中勇敢地拼搏！
Every setback is a wealth. When we succeed in overcoming it and accumulate rich experience, we will fight bravely in the future exam room and even in the whole life!
同学们，相信实践吧！微笑着面对挫折，是你最好的选择！
Students, believe in practice! Smile in the face of setbacks, is your best choice!
谢谢大家，我的演讲完了。
Thank you, my speech is over.
