That’s all. Thanks for your attention.

Thank you for listening!

[参考范文]

Good afternoon, everyone!

The topic of my speech today is “My Attitude to Pursuit of Fashion in School”.

Now in our school there is a hot pursuit of fashion. Some students live a very expensive life. They have hairstyles like those of famous stars and wear top brand of clothes and shoes. Some use expensive mobile phones.

Personally, I understand why they do so. Firstly, they hope to look smart and special. Secondly, they highly value others’ respect and recognition. In addition, it makes them feel cool.

In my opinion, we students should hold the right values. It is how we behave rather than how we appear that makes us cool. It is what achievements we have made rather than what brand we are wearing that makes us respectable. It is how much we care for others rather than how much we 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

spend on gifts and luxuries that make us charming. I think it will make great sense to save the money to help those who still can’t make ends meet.

Thank you for listening!
