The following is the draft of my speech, i put it there hoping that it could be polished Today, my topic is that "Women, the word changes the world". I choose this topic not because i'm a feminism, i just think it interesting and i can talk a lot about it by dating back to the beginning of the world. We all know that according to the Bible, Adam was created by God from "the dust of the ground", and God knew that even though he lived in the Garden of Eden which is a very glorious place he was still lonely. Then the first woman came into being---Eve, who was created from Adam's rib. From this you can see that how important woman is to man. I was once told to add punctuations between those words to made it into a sentence without changing its order "woman, without, man, is, nothing." I put it this way ,”Woman without, man is nothing” Again, i'm not trying to maintain alpha female, but still let me sing songs of some great women both domestically and overseas. Empress Wu ZeTian, the only empress throughout Chinese history, paid much attention to recruiting talent and created the first examination of the ”successful candidates” system. When she ruled the country, policy be guided, soldiers arranged properly, culture revived, people lived and worked happily. Zhenguan Period lay a solid foundation for the following generation. Madame Curie, polish-born French female physicist and radiation chemist, discovered radium on June 25 1903 which has a Epoch-making significant. She was also the founder of Institute Curie, seeking neither fame nor profit and becoming the first one who won the Nobel Price twice. Other like Russian Queen Catherine 2, England Queen Elizabeth1, UK Alexandrina Victoria and so on, they are all the greatest and most influential women who made great contribution and changed the world to a certain degree. Of course, thing are not always good. It is because of Eve who didn’t resist the temptation of the evil snake that both of them were expelled out of the garden. Right now, you may think of the phrase ”Dangerous Beauty”. To associated to ancient china, beauties who were the source of trouble often draw down ruins of the whole country. To give one example—Yang Kwei Fey who attracted empire Xuanzong by her charming dance pas was later claimed to death by hanging from the tree in Ma Wei Po. Actually you can see that women do change the world either make great contribution or ruin the country totally. But since their merits outweigh errors, let’s just say “woman, the word that changes the world”. That’s all, thank you!
