女士们，先生们，下午好!
我很高兴站在这里，给你一个简短的演讲。今天我的主题是“青年”。我希望你会喜欢它，发现青年中的重要性，更珍惜它。
首先，我想问你一些问题：
1、你知道什么是青春?2、如何掌握你的青春呢?
青年
青春不是生命的一个阶段，它是一种心态，它不是玫瑰色的脸颊，红色的嘴唇和柔软的膝盖，这是一个重要的情感：它是新鲜的，它是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春是一种气质的勇猛果敢而不是怯懦退缩的食欲，在安逸的冒险。这通常存在于一个60岁的人更可能比一个20岁的男孩。人老不仅仅是岁月的流逝。理想的毁灭，人类才出现了我们变老。
岁月，衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。担心，恐惧，自我不信任弓心脏和精神回沾污。
无论是60岁的16岁，在每一个人的心奇迹的诱惑，欲望天真烂漫的童心，快乐的生活的游戏。你的心和我的心的中心有一个无线电台：只要它接收消息的美、希望、快乐、勇气和力量从男人和无限的，只要你是年轻人。
天线时，你的精神覆盖着玩世不恭和悲观厌世的冰层，那么你是老了，即使在20，但只要你的天线，捕捉乐观的信号，你可能有希望死于年轻的80岁。
谢谢你!
Ladies and Gentlemen, Good afternoon!
I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. Today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it, and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
First I want to ask you some questions:
1、Do you know what is youth? 2、How do you master your youth?
Youth
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 of 16, there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!
