知识改变生活英文三分钟演讲
I am honored to be here, excited to give a short speech about which one is more important, personal experience and knowledge from books. In my opinion, personal experience is more important than knowledge from books.There is no doubt that all the information we need to be able to function well in society is got from books. In the meantime, knowledge is learned by personal experience. We learn to recognize when we make a mistake and how to make it right.Well, with due respect to all those great authors of the books, but in university, I do realize that personal experience means extremely much to me. As we are in this transformational age where communications and commerce are global, technology is almost magical, and the ambition for a better life is now universal, and I think this is why we are here today. We want to earn our personal experience through practicing our oral English, sharing our opinions with all the judges and audience here. And I think we are lucky to be alive at this moment of the history. Never before has our country enjoyed so much prosperity and so much social progress with so few crises.
