Dear audience,
It is a great honor and pleasure to be here in this beautiful morning to share with you my viewpoints about my topic-conquering fear.
About a year ago,I took part in my very first English speech contest.When I stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me,l was too nervous to speak out and just stood there,embarrassed and helpless,struggling in vain for the right thing to say.
After that I lost my courage to speak in public.Once again,my professor encouraged me to take part in an English competition;I said "No."I couldn't endure another painful experience.He told me seriously,"Look,"he said,"we all have our fears,and you have yours.You may twist your ankle in a basketball game,but you should not be afraid to ever play again.Running away can never dispel your fears,but action will.A winner is not one who never fails,but one who never quits."
My professor's words lingered in my mind all that day.Finally l made the bravest and wisest decision of my life:I would face my fears and take part in the competition!
As it turned out,my dear professor was right.Now,here l am,once again standing before a microphone.My heart is beating fast,and my mouth is dry,but most importantly,I have faced my fears and that makes all the dif-ference!
That's all.Thank you.

尊敬的观众：
在这个美好的早上，我有幸站在这里和大家分享今天我要演讲的话题——战胜恐惧。
大约一年前，我第一次参加英语演讲比赛。当我站在麦克风前，所有的目光都聚集在我身上，当时我紧张到说不出话来。我站在那里，尴尬、无助，不知道要说些什么好。
在那之后我失去了在公开场合发言的勇气。当我的教授再次鼓励我参加英语比赛时，我立马说了“不”，因为我不能再忍受那样痛苦的经历。他严肃地跟我说道:“我们都有我们的恐惧，你有你的。 你可能在篮球比赛中扭伤你的`脚踝,但不应害怕再打篮球。逃跑永远不能消除你的恐惧，但行动会。赢家不是永远不会失败的人，而是永远不会退出的人。”
那一整天，教授的话一直萦绕在我脑海中，于是我做出了我生命中最勇敢和最聪明的决定：面对我的恐惧——参加比赛!
事实证明，我亲爱的教授是对的。现在，我站在了这里，再次站在麦克风前。 我的心跳加快，我的嘴是干的，但最重要的是，我已经面对我的恐惧一一这令一切大有不同!
我的演讲到此结束。谢谢。
