ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
i am chinese. i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i’ve learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i’ve learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i’ve learned about zhang heng and i’ve learned about zheng he．who says the yellow river civilization has vanished？i know that my ancestors have made miracles on this fertile land and we’re still making miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
i once came across an american tourist. she said, “china has a history of five thousand years, but the us only has a history of 200 years. five thousand years ago, china took the lead in the world, and now it is the us that is leading.” my heart was deeply touched by these words. it is true that we’re still a developing nation, but it doesn’t mean that we can despise ourselves. we have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. we have reasons to say proudly： we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition is even bigger, our challenges are great, but our will is even greater.
i am chinese. i have inherited black hair and black eyes. i have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. i have also taken over responsibility. i am sure, that wherever i go, whatever i do, i shall never forget that i am chinese!

女士们，先生们，男孩和女孩，
我是一个中国人。我感到自豪的是一个中国的五千年文明的落后。我已经了解了四大发明提出我们的祖先。我了解长城和长江流域。我已经了解张衡，我学到了关于郑和说，黄河文明已经消失？我知道我的祖先已在此奇迹肥沃的土地和我们仍使奇迹。谁可以忽视的事实是，我们已经建立了自己作为一个伟大的国家在世界上，我们已制定我们自己的核武器，我们已经成功发送的卫星送入太空，我们的国民生产总值排名第7的世界？我们经历了掠夺其他国家，我们经历了战争。然而，根据这些遗迹，还有站在我们的国家——中国，不屈不挠的和不可战胜的！
我曾经遇到一位美国游客。她说：“中国的历史五千年，但美国只有200多年的历史。五千年前，中国率先在世界上，现在是美国，是领先的。 “我的心被深深感动了这些话。这是事实，我们仍然是一个发展中国家，但它并不意味着我们可以看不起自己。我们有这样一个长期的历史，我们有这样丰富的资源，我们有这样的智慧和勤奋的人民，我们有足够的值得骄傲的地方。我们有理由自豪地说：我们一定要带头世界未来再次，我们的问题并不是很大，但我们的目标就是更大，我们的挑战是巨大的，但是我们将是更大的。
我是一个中国人。我继承了黑头发，黑眼睛。我继承的美德，我的祖先。我也采取了责任。我相信，只要我去，不管我做，我将永远不会忘记，我是一个中国人
