Nick Vujicic我和世界不一样英文演讲稿
My name is Nick Vujicic and I give God the Glory for how He has used my testimony to touch thousands of hearts around the world! I was born without limbs and doctors have no medicalexplanation for this birth "defect". As you can imagine, I was faced with many challenges and obstacles.
"Consider it pure joy, my Brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds."
....To count our hurt, pain and struggle as nothing but pure joy? As my parents were Christians, and my Dad even a Pastor of our church, they knew that verse very well. However, on the morning of the 4th of December 1982 in Melbourne (Australia), the last two words on the minds of my parents was "Praise God!". Their firstbornson had been born without limbs! There were no warnings or time to prepare themselves for it. The doctors were shocked and had no answers at all! There is still no medical reason why this had happened and Nick now has a Brother and Sister who were born just like any other baby.
The whole church mourned over my birth and my parents were absolutely
devastated. Everyone asked, "if God is a God of Love, then why would God let something this bad happen to not just anyone, but dedicated Christians?" My Dad thought I wouldn't survive for very long, but tests proved that I was a healthy baby boy just with a few limbs missing.
Understandably, my parents had strong concern and evident fears of what kind of life I'd be able to lead. God provided them strength, wisdom and courage through those early years and soon after that I was old enough to go to school.
The law in Australia didn't allow me to be integrated into a main-stream school because of my physical disability. God did miracles and gave my Mom the strength to fight for the law to be changed. I was one of the first disabled students to be integrated into a main-stream school.
I liked going to school, and just try to live life like everyone else, but it was in my early years of school where I encountered uncomfortable times of feeling rejected, weird and bullied because of my physical difference.
It was very hard for me to get used to, but with the support of my parents, I started to develop attitudes and values which helped me overcome these challenging times. I knew that I was different but on the inside I was just likeeveryone else. There were many times when I felt so low that I wouldn't go to school just so I didn't have to face all the negative attention. I was encouraged by my parents to ignore them and to try start making friends by just talking with some kids. Soon the students realized that I was just like them, and starting there God kept onblessing me with new friends.
There were times when I felt depressed and angry because I couldn't change the way I was, or blame anyone for that matter. I went to Sunday School and learnt that God loves us all and that He cares for you. I understood that love to a point as a child, but I didn't understand that if God loved me why did He make me like this? Is it because I did something wrong? I thought I must have because out of all the kids at school, I'm the only weird one. I felt like I was a burden to those around me and the sooner I go, the better it'd be for everyone. I wanted to end my pain and end my life at a young age, but I am thankful once again, for my parents and family who were always there to comfort me and give me strength.
Due to my emotional struggles I had experienced with bullying, self esteem and loneliness, God has implanted apassion of sharing my story and experiences to help others cope with whatever challenge they have in their life and let God turn it into a blessing. To encourage and inspire others to live to their fullest potential and not let anything get in the way of accomplishing their hopes and dreams.
One of the first lessons that I have learnt was not to take things for granted.
"And we know that in all things God works for the best for those who love Him."
That verse spoke to my heart and convicted me to the point where that I know that there is no such thing as luck, chance or coincidence that these "bad" things happen in our life.
I had complete peace knowing that God won't let anything happen to us in our life unless He has a good purpose for it all. I completely gave my life to Christ at the age of fifteen after reading John 9. Jesus said that the
reason the man was born blind was "so that the works of God may be revealed through Him." I truly believed that God would heal me so I could be a great testimony of His Awesome Power. Later on I was given the wisdom to understand that if we pray for something, if it's God's will, it'll happen in His time. If it's not God's will for it to happen, then I know that He has something better.
I now see that Glory revealed as He is using me just the way I am and in ways others can't be used.
I am now twenty-one years old and have completed a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Financial Planning and Accounting. I am also a motivational speaker and love to go out and share my story and testimony whereveropportunities become available. I have developed talks to relate to and encourage students through topics thatchallenge today's teenagers. I am also a speaker in the corporate sector.
I have a passion for reaching out to youth and keep myself available for whatever God wants me to do, andwherever He leads, I follow.

Everyone asked, "if God is a God of Love, then why would God let something this bad happen to not just anyone, but dedicated Christians?" My Dad thought I wouldn't survive for very long, but tests proved that I was a healthy baby boy just with a few limbs missing. 当时全教会为我的出生和我父母的遭遇而伤痛的景况可以用举世震惊 来形容，每个人都在问：「假如上帝真是一位爱人的神，为何让这样糟 糕的事情发生呢？若发生在其他人就也算了， 却竟然让它发生在一个为 神摆上的基督徒家庭之中」？我父亲起初以为我可能活不了多久，但经 过检查发现---我是个健康的男婴，只是有些肢体不见了！Understandably, my parents had strong concern and evident fears of what kind of life I'd be able to lead. God provided them strength, wisdom and courage through those early years and soon after that I was old enough to go to school. 可想而知的， 我的父母对我将来所要面
对的生活有着沉重且明显的忧虑与恐 惧。上帝给他们力量、智慧和勇气度过了我的幼年岁月，日子渐渐过去，我也长 大到了上学的年龄。The law in Australia didn't allow me to be integrated into a main-stream school because of my physical disability. God did miracles and gave my Mom the strength to fight for the law to be changed. I was one of the first disabled students to be integrated into a main-stream school. 因我的肢体残障，澳洲法律无法让我进入主流的教育体系，而上帝行了 神迹，给我妈妈力量去争取现行法律的改变。使我成了澳洲第一批能进 入主流教育体系的残障学生之一。 I liked going to school, and just try to live life like everyone else, but it was in my early years of school where I encountered uncomfortable times of feeling rejected, weird and bullied because of my physical difference.

I went to Sunday School and learnt that God loves us all and that He cares for you. I understood that love to a point as a child, but I didn't understand that if God loved me why did He make me like this? Is it because I did something wrong?

better it'd be for everyone. I wanted to end my pain and end my life at a young age, but I am thankful once again, for my parents and family who were always there to comfort me and give me strength.很多时候，我会因着无法改变我的样子或罪疚那些与此事有关的人，而感到 沮丧和愤怒。我在主日学学到上帝爱我们所有的人，并眷顾你我。以一个正常小 孩来讲，我了解这份爱，但我不了解既然上帝爱我，为什么又要如此造我？是因 为我做错了什么事吗？我想是的，因为我是学校所有孩子中唯一的怪物！ 我觉得对于周遭的人而言，我是一个包袱，越快离开对他们越好。我想要结束这 痛苦及年少的生命，但每当想到父母及家人总在需要的时候安慰我、给我力量， 我就再次感恩不已！Due to my emotional struggles I had experienced with bullying, self esteem and loneliness, God has implanted a passion of sharing my story and experiences to help others cope with whatever challenge they have in their life and let God turn it into a blessing. To encourage and inspire others to live to their fullest potential and not let anything get in the way of accomplishing their hopes and dreams.因着经历各种欺凌、 自怜、 孤寂的情绪争战， 上帝在我里面深植了一份热情， 让我可以分享故事与经历来帮助他人胜过生命中各样的挑战， 并且上帝将他们一 一化为祝福。要鼓舞激励人们活出最大的潜能，不让任何事物阻挡了梦想完成之 路。 One of the first lessons that I have learnt was not to take things for granted.我所要学的第一课就是"勿将万事视作理所当然"。"And we know that in all things God works for the best for those who love Him.""我们知道万事都互相效力，叫爱神的人得益处"。That verse spoke to my heart and convicted me to the point where that I know that there is no such thing as luck, chance or coincidence that these "bad" things happen in our life. 这经文对我说话并说服我明白---无所谓的运气、 机会或巧合会导致这些 "倒霉的"事发生在我们生命中。 I had complete peace knowing that God won't let anything happen to us in our life unless He has a good purpose for it all. I completely gave my life to Christ at the age of fifteen after reading John 9. Jesus said that the reason the man was born blind was "so that the works of God may be revealed through him." 在我 15 岁的时候，当我读完了约翰福音第九章，我就完全地将自己生 命献给基督。耶稣说：那人生来就瞎眼的原因是要"在他身上显出上帝 的作为来"。 I truly believed that God would heal me so I could be a great testimony of His Awesome Power. Later on I was given the wisdom to understand that if we pray for something, if it's God's will, it'll happen in His time. If it's not God's will for it to happen, then I know that He has something
better. 我确信上帝会医治我，使我成为祂大而可畏的权能见证者，后来上帝给 我智慧明白我们所祷告的事，如果是合上帝的心意，它将会在适当的时 间成就，如果不合上帝的心意而未成就，那么我就知道上帝有更美的旨 意。 I now see that Glory revealed as He is using me just the way I am and in ways others can't be used. 如今我看见神的荣耀被彰显出来， 祂以我的本相来使用我， 而这种方式 是别人无法替代的。 I am now twenty- three years old and have completed a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Financial Planning and Accounting. I am also a motivational speaker and love to go out and share my story and testimony wherever opportunities become available. I have developed talks to relate to and encourage students through topics that challenge today's teenagers. I am also a speaker in the corporate sector. 我现在 23 岁， 已完成财务规划与会计的主修课程， 取得商业学士学位。 我也是一位潜能开发的讲员， 一有任何机会都喜欢各处分享自己的故事 与见证。我已发展出一些以激励学生的讲题，有关的主讲都是现今青少 年相当困扰的，我同时也是一些法人组织的演讲人。 I have a passion for reaching out to youth and keep myself available for whatever God wants me to do, and wherever He leads, I follow.我热衷于接触年轻族群，让神来差遣我去做祂要我做的事，无论祂去哪里，我都 跟随！I have many dreams and goals that I have set to achieve in my life. I want to become the best witness I can be of God's Love and Hope, to become an international inspirational speaker and be used as a vessel in both Christian and non-Christian venues. I want to become financially independent by the age of 25, through real estate investments, to modify a car for me to drive and to be interviewed and share my story on the "Oprah Winfrey Show"! 在我生命中，我许下了很多梦想和目标要去完成，我要成为上帝大爱与 盼望的最佳见证人，我要成为一个鼓舞人心的国际演说家，在基督徒与 非基督徒场合中都被神使用的器皿。在 25 岁以前，我要经由房地产的 投资而成为财务独立，我要为自己修改一部方便驾驶的汽车，我要上 ，我要为自己修改一部方便驾驶的汽车 Oprah Winfrey 脱口秀节目分享我的故事 脱口秀节目分享我的故事。 Writing several best-selling books has been one of my dreams and I hope to selling finish writing my first by the end of the year. It will be called "No Arms, No Legs, No Worries!" 写几本最畅销的书也是我的梦想之一， 写几本最畅销的书也是我的梦想之一 我希望第一本书可以在今年底之 前完成。书名将取为 "没手、没脚、没烦恼！" I believe that if you have the desire a passion to do something, and if it's and God's will, you will achieve it in good time.
As humans, we continually put limits on ourselves for no reason at all! What's worse is putting limits on God who can do all things. We put God in a "box".我相信只要你有渴望与热情要做一些事，并且是合乎上帝的旨意， 我相信只要你有渴望与热情要做一些事 ，就会在最好 的时机成就。人们经常毫无理由地将限制放在自己身上 更糟的是---将限制放在 人们经常毫无理由地将限制放在自己身上，更糟的是 可以成就万事的上帝身上，如同把上帝放进一个"箱子"里！ 可以成就万事的上帝身上The awesome thing about the Power of God, is that if we want to do something for God, instead of focusing on our capability, concentrate on our availability for we know that it is God through us and we can't do anything without Him. Once we make ourselves available for God's work, guess whose capabilities we rely on? God's! abilities有关上帝大能的奇妙之处，乃在于当你要为神做事时，不去看自己的能力大小 有关上帝大能的奇妙之处 不去看自己的能力大小、 而是看自己愿意给祂使用多少，因为事情是祂藉我们成就的，离了上帝我们不能 而是看自己愿意给祂使用多少 离了上帝我们不能 做什么！一但我们愿意为神所用 猜猜谁的能力将成为我们的依靠？上帝的！ 一但我们愿意为神所用，猜猜谁的能力将成为我们的依靠• medical [´medikəl] a.医学的；医疗的 (初中词汇) (初中词汇 初中词汇)• explanation [,eksplə´nei ´neiʃən] • whenever [wen´evə] • absolutely [´æbsəlu:tli] lu:tli] • everyone [´evriwʌn]n.解释；说明；辩解 (初中词汇)conj.&ad.无论何时ad.绝对地；确实 pron.=everybody 每人(初中词汇) (初中词汇) • survive [sə´vaiv] • healthy [´helθi] • evident [´evidənt] • wisdom [´wizdəm] • physical [´fizikəl] m] • overcome [,əuvə´kʌm] • blessing [´blesiŋ] • learnt [lə:nt]vt.幸存；残存 a.健康的(初中词汇)(初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇)a.明显的，明白的 n.智慧，聪明，才智 a.物质的；有形的 vt.战胜，克服 n.祝福(初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇) )learn 的过去式(分词)• emotional [i´məuʃənəl] l] • passion [´pæʃən] • whatever [wɔt´evə] • challenge [´tʃælindʒ] ] • encourage [in´kʌridʒ] ] • inspire [in´spaiə] • knowing [´nəuiŋ] • christ [kraist] • reading [´ri:diŋ] • commerce [´kɔmə:s] • financial [fi´nænʃəl] l] • speaker [´spi:kə] • wherever [weər´evə] l] • available [ə´veiləbəl]a.易动感情的；情感的 n.激情；激怒；恋爱 pron.&a.无论什么(初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇) ) (初中词汇) (初中词汇) (初中词汇)n.&vt.向….挑战；怀疑 vt.鼓励；怂勇；促进 v.鼓舞；使感悟；吸入 a.会意的，心照

In Thailand, people do not eat with chopsticks, like in China, Japan and Korea. They use spoons and forks. People will cut most food before meals. If you need to cut food during meals, use the side of your spoon first and then use your fork.
People in Thailand use spoons more often than forks. If you are left-handed(左撇子),
keep the spoon in you left hand and the fork in your right hand.
People in Thailand like eating rice. The rice is not on the same plate with other food. Each person eat rice on his own plate. It’s not necessary to finish all your rice or all your food. If you eat up all the food on your plate, it means you want more.
Because the host will ask you two or three times if you want more food. It’s the same as drinks. During the meal, never empty your cup or glass. When it’s less than half full, your host or your neighbor will fill it again. It’s polite to fill the glasses for your neighbors.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A ★
Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, but he doesn’t let this stop him. The brave 26-year-old man plays football and golf, and swims, in spite of the fact that he has no arms or legs.
Nick has a small foot on his left side, which helps him balance and makes him able to kick. He uses his one foot to type, write with a pen and pick things up.
“I call it my chicken drumstick (鸡腿下段),” joked Nick, who was born in Melbourne, Australia, but now lives in Los Angeles. “I’d be lost without it. When I get in the water I float because 80 percent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller (螺旋桨).”
“He’s very modest, but he gets marriage proposals (求婚) from women all the time,” said Nick’s friend Steve Appel.
“He would love to get married and start a family, but he’s waiting for the right girl to come along.”
When Nick was born his father was so shocked that he left the hospital room. His distraught mother couldn’t bring herself to hold him until he was four months old. His disability came without any medical explanation, which was a rare case. Nick and his parents spent many years asking why this cruel trick would happen to them. “My mother was a nurse and she did everything right during pregnancy but she still blamed herself,” he said.
“It was so hard for them, but right from the start they did their best to make me independent. My dad put me in the water at 18 months and gave me the courage to learn how to swim.”
56. We can learn from the text that Nick _____.
A. has a poor sense of balance
B. understands his mother very well
C. considers his small foot ugly
D. is disappointed with his health condition
57. What can we learn from what Steve Appel said?
A. Nick Vujicic is serious about his marriage.
B. Nick Vujicic is not popular with women.
C. Nick Vujicic is afraid of starting a family.
D. Nick Vujicic is not willing to get married.
58. The underlined word “distraught” in the text probably means _____.
A. cold-blooded B. bad-tempered C. really shy D. extremely upset
59. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Nick’s parents couldn’t afford the hospital bill.
B. Nick is living in Melbourne, Australia now.
C. Nick’s father was to blame for his disability.
D. Nick learned to be independent at a young age.
