誠信英語演講稿：Honesty
Ladies and Gentlemen:
My topic is Honesty. As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story.
65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure.
In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had to leave. On his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one of the teeth from the dragon’s mouth.
He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his consience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 2002, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome.
When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error.
Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.
Thank you.

《誠信英語演講稿：Honesty》(http://www.oriental01.com)。作為“青島早報(bào)”的小記者，我采訪了英國馬可•波羅國際研究委員會(huì)總裁詹姆斯•吉爾曼博士。請(qǐng)看這張照片，這位是詹姆斯，這是我，我們正在看一顆“龍牙”。這是一個(gè)真實(shí)的故事：
65年前，詹姆斯一家住在青島，當(dāng)時(shí)他只有5歲。他經(jīng)常去青島水族館，那兒陳列的一個(gè)巨大的生物標(biāo)本使他著迷。他認(rèn)為那是一條“龍”，他既懼怕又喜歡它鋒利的牙齒，想擁有一顆作為寶貝來珍藏。
上個(gè)世紀(jì)30年代末，當(dāng)日本人開始侵占青島的時(shí)候，他們家不得不離開青島返回英國。在青島的最后一天，他跑到水族館，從“龍” 的嘴里拔出了一顆“龍牙”。
他將這顆“龍牙”珍藏了65年。但是，由于“偷”了這顆“龍牙”，負(fù)罪的感覺一直伴隨著他，他的良心時(shí)時(shí)受到譴責(zé)，年老后尤為強(qiáng)烈。最后，他決定要改正兒時(shí)的錯(cuò)誤。2002年，他訪問了青島，帶著真誠的道歉將這顆“龍牙”交還給了青島水族館，他受到了熱烈的`歡迎。
詹姆斯訪問青島，我一直作為翻譯陪同并報(bào)道他的訪問。我被他的誠實(shí)精神深深地打動(dòng)了,從詹姆斯身上，我學(xué)到了很多。我想，人都會(huì)犯錯(cuò)誤，重要的是有勇氣承認(rèn)和改正錯(cuò)誤。
誠實(shí)是人們行為的重要品質(zhì)，所以，我們應(yīng)該以誠實(shí)的態(tài)度去說和做每一件事情。我要對(duì)我的朋友們說：讓我們都來做具有高尚道德品質(zhì)的誠實(shí)的人。
謝謝。
