【演讲稿】暑假趣事演讲稿500字：我的暑假，我的快乐

水盆里跳进来的那条小鱼

敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们：大家好！

今天，我演讲的题目是《我的暑假，我的快乐》。有人可能会问：快乐到底是什么？我想用一条小鱼来回答。

今年暑假，我在乡下的外婆家过了半个月。有一天中午，热得人受不了，外公把西瓜吊进池塘里冰着，我蹲在塘边看，舍不得走。忽然外公猛地一提绳，西瓜出了水，一群小鱼跟着水花四散，其中一条小鲫鱼，一下子跳进了我脚边的水盆里。我喊了一声，伸手就去扑。鱼没扑着，我先一屁股坐进了塘边的泥里，泥水溅了满脸。外婆听见动静跑过来，看我顶着一身泥巴抱着水盆的样子，笑得直不起腰，外公抱着西瓜，一路笑着走回了屋。

我不服输。我把水盆端到院墙的树荫底下，蹲下去，盯着那条小鲫鱼。第一次伸手，它尾巴一甩，甩了我一脸水；第二次我快了一点，它又从指头缝里溜了；第三次，我从背后两手一合，它终于成了我的俘虏。我把它装进玻璃罐，整个下午，猫都蹲在罐子前面一动不动，我叉着腰站在旁边，觉得自己是个打了胜仗的大英雄。

那条小鱼一分钱不花，却给了我整一年最快乐的中午。后来的日子里，外公还教我在池塘里学游泳，从不敢把脸埋进水里，到能扑腾两下，我用了整整一个星期。我慢慢明白：快乐不需要很贵的东西，它就藏在泥巴里、水里，藏在一声哎呀和一声抓到啦里面。

同学们，你们是不是也想要这样的暑假？在这里，我想向大家倡议：这个暑假，去抓一条属于你自己的小鱼吧！去一次河边，进一次厨房，下一次田，把手里的平板放一放，让手去摸泥巴、摸水。等开学的时候，你来把你的趣事讲给我听，我把我的讲给你听。让我们一起，做阳光下跑出去玩的、能自己找到快乐的孩子！

我的演讲完了，谢谢大家！

The Guppy That Jumped into My Basin

Dear teachers and dear classmates, hello!

Today my topic is My Summer Vacation, My Happiness. Some of you may ask: what exactly is happiness? I want to answer with one little fish.

This summer I spent half a month at the home of my grandma in the countryside. One noon, the heat was terrible, and my grandpa lowered a watermelon into the pond on a rope to cool it. I squatted at the edge of the pond watching, unwilling to leave. Suddenly my grandpa pulled the rope up hard, the watermelon came out of the water, and a school of little fish scattered everywhere with the splashing water. One small guppy jumped straight into the washbasin at my feet. I shouted and pounced with both hands. I did not catch the fish, and I first sat down in the mud at the pond edge, mud water splashing over my face. My grandma heard the noise and rushed over. Seeing me like a mud statue hugging a basin, she laughed so hard she could not straighten her back, and my grandpa, holding the watermelon, laughed all the way back to the house.

I refused to give up. I carried the basin to the shade of the yard wall and crouched down, staring at that little fish. The first time I reached in, it flicked its tail and splashed water over my face; the second time I was quicker, but it slid through my fingers; on the third try I closed both hands from behind, and it finally became my prisoner. I put it into a glass jar. That whole afternoon the cat crouched in front of the jar without moving, and I stood beside it with hands on my hips, feeling like a great hero who had just won a battle.

That little fish did not cost one cent, yet it gave me the happiest noon of the whole year. In the days that followed, my grandpa also taught me to swim in the pond. From being afraid to put my face into the water to managing two strokes, I used up a whole week. Little by little I understood: happiness does not need expensive things. It hides in the mud, in the water, in one cry of oh no and one cry of I got it.

Classmates, do you not want such a summer too? Here I make a proposal to everyone: this summer vacation, go and catch one fish of your own! Go to the river bank once, go into the kitchen once, go down to the fields once, put down the tablet in your hands, and let your hands touch mud and water. When the new term opens, come and tell me your funny story, and I will tell you mine. Let us all be children who run out into the sun, children who can find happiness with their own hands!

That is all for my speech. Thank you all!

集邮册里的二十一枚邮票

敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们：大家好！

我演讲的题目是《我的暑假，我的快乐》。先问大家一个问题：你的暑假计划表上，有没有一件事，是打算坚持做下去的？我的有——集邮。

我家有一本旧集邮册，是爸爸从小攒的。今年暑假第一天，我把它借过来，打算把里面的邮票全部重新分类、数一遍。数完我愣住了：一共二十一枚，最旧的一枚是爸爸八岁那年买的。就为了这本册子，我这个暑假干了一件大事。听说老街邮局门口有时摆旧货摊，可能有散票，我每个星期六早上都去，第一个星期什么也没有，第二个星期也没有，卖报纸的大爷都认识我了，见我就摇头。第三个星期，摊主从箱子底下翻出一枚缺了个小角的旧信票，问我要不要。我掏光口袋，六块二，全给了。我捏着那枚小小的、缺角的票，沿着老街一路小跑回家，比考了双百还神气。

回到家的趣事也来了。我兴冲冲给新票编号，结果手一抖，胶水点多了，新票和册页粘在了一起，怎么揭都揭不下来。还是爸爸教我用蒸汽熏，屏住呼吸，一点一点把它起下来。那一刻我手心全是汗，比找票的三个星期还紧张。

开学前我再数一遍：二十二枚。我得到的收获不是一枚邮票，而是一个发现：原来我可以为一件小事，连续起早三个星期六；原来一件看起来不起眼的事，坚持做下去，就会自己发光。

同学们，我倡议：这个暑假，每人认领一件小事，坚持到底。可以是集邮，可以是观察楼下的一棵树，可以是每天给一盆花浇水。不用多，一件就好。等到开学，我们比一比谁的册子、谁的记录本最厚。让快乐从一件小事开始，让坚持成为我们这一代人最神气的本领！

我的演讲完了，谢谢大家！

The Twenty-One Stamps in My Album

Dear teachers and dear classmates, hello!

My topic is My Summer Vacation, My Happiness. Let me start with a question: on your summer plan, is there one thing you intend to keep doing all summer? I have one — collecting stamps.

At home there is an old stamp album, collected by my father since he was a child. On the first day of this summer vacation I borrowed it and decided to sort and count every stamp inside. When I finished counting I froze: twenty-one stamps in all, and the oldest one was bought when my father was eight years old. For the sake of this album, I did a big thing this summer. I heard that sometimes there is a secondhand stall at the gate of the post office on Old Street, where loose stamps might appear. Every Saturday morning I went there. Nothing on the first week, nothing on the second week. Even the old man selling newspapers recognized me, and shook his head when he saw me. On the third week, the stall keeper turned out an old postage stamp with a small corner missing from the bottom of his box, and asked if I wanted it. I emptied my pockets: six yuan and two jiao, every cent of it. Clutching that tiny chipped stamp, I ran home all the way along the Old Street, prouder than if I had got full marks on both exams.

The funny part happened after I got home. Full of excitement, I was numbering my new stamp when my hand shook and I put too much glue on it, so the new stamp stuck fast to the album page and would not come off no matter how I tried. It was my father who taught me to loosen it with steam. Holding my breath, I lifted it up little by little. My palms were drenched with sweat then, more nervous than during the three weeks of searching.

Before school opened I counted again: twenty-two stamps. What I gained is not one stamp but one discovery: it turns out I can get up early for one small thing on three Saturdays in a row; it turns out that a thing which looks unimportant will shine by itself if you keep at it.

Classmates, here is my proposal: this summer vacation, let each of us take on one small thing and carry it through to the end. It can be collecting stamps, or watching one tree downstairs, or watering one pot of flowers every day. Just one thing is enough. When the new term opens, let us see whose album or whose notebook is the thickest. Let happiness start from one small thing, and let persistence become the proudest skill of our generation!

That is all for my speech. Thank you all!
