learn to walk before you can run英语演讲Good afternoon ，ladies and gentlemen Im very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! my name is XX ,I'm a freshman ，majoring in clinical medicine from class x. The saying learn to walk before you can run enlightens us about the importance of the foundation, Imagine that when we was a child, we learned to walk first, when we got a bit older, running became so natural to us. But what if we learned to run in the first place. We all know that surely we would fall. No matter what we learn, all need to focus more on the beginning and learning step by step. History is also abounded with examples proving the above. It would have been impossible for Beethoven to compose the world-famous melody before learning fundamental music knowledge. It would have been impossible for Shakespeare to write beautiful poetry before learning basic writing skills. And, it would have also been impossible for Archimedes to be bold enough to say, “Give me a level and a spot, I can move the earth” before commanding a solid knowledge of astronomy, physics and mathematics. And similarly, as for us medico, we cannot be a competent doctor if we pay little attention to solidifying the foundation knowledge. Someone may say, the modern society is rapidly-developing, and life is like a race. We need to learn run first while there is no need wasting time on slow walking. Is it true? It is likely that those who learn to run first can save more time in the short term; however, without a basic ability of walking, the ones that run the fastest are also the ones that might take the biggest tumbles. The famous scholar LaoZi once said, a journey of a thousand miles begins with the single step. Yes, a seed needs its fixed time to absorb minerals and other nutrients from soil before growing into a towering tree. A large skyscraper needs building from the ground before reaching the sky. We need focus on the fundamental learning before we succeed just like we need learn to walk before who can run. Thanks for listening!
