胡同学 The Bandwagon Effect

**位出场的是胡同学，她讲述了一个经典的心理学的效应——从众效应。首先，她以网上对谭松韵的舆论评价引出话题，进而提出三种从众的类型。**种是害怕被谴责，被迫从众;第二种是那种轻易被说服而从众的人 ;最后一种是盲目从众。她指出，几乎所有人都会在听到别人的言论时改变观点，哪怕是一些他们根本不赞同的东西，由此这个效应几乎无处不在。最后，她进一步以众人对蔡徐坤的评价为例进一步论证了从众效应对人的影响。

The Bandwagon Effect in psychology means that individuals are easily influenced by others mentally and behaviorally. Almost everybody will change their perspectives sightly in heart when they hear others making claims, even if it is something that they don’t agree with.

What I wanna say is although this kind of behavior can be described in psychology , it can not be taken for granted !

郑同学 Emma Watson

第二位出场的是郑同学，她分享了一位著名的英国女演员——艾玛·沃特森。艾玛最早凭借《哈利波特》这部作品红遍全球，在事业顶峰期，艾玛以straight A的成绩考入美国常春藤盟校布朗大学。令人钦佩的是，艾玛很好地平衡了事业与学业，在名利双收后，仍能保持初心，回归学业。此外，艾玛还是一名坚定的女权主义者，致力于为女性争取合理权益。于我而言，喜欢艾玛，因为她是一个头脑清醒、有明确生活规划的女演员;因为她知道自己真正想要的是什么，从不患得患失;因为她一直在自己选择的道路上坚定不移地前行。

Emma Watson is a English actress. She has won worldwide popularity with Harry Potter. But at the peak of her career, she returned to her study. She has a good balance between her career and her studies. After gaining both reputation and wealth, she can still keep her original mind and return to her studies. She is also a strong feminist, dedicated to women's rights and interests. Emma Watson is a very clear-headed actress with a clear life plan. She knows what she really wants and never worries about losing it. She is firmly ahead of the path she has chosen.

曾同学 Flipped

第三位出场的是曾同学，她跟我们分享了一部经典的英国小清新电影——《怦然心动》。电影讲述了一段青梅竹马的情感经历，充满了耐人寻味的人生哲理。看完这部电影，曾同学表示受益匪浅，从女主人公身上学到了勇敢、理性判断、自尊、自爱以及正当的维权。同时，电影令人深思的还有美国的家庭教育，无论是面对挫折还是青涩的爱，孩子都敢于向家长大胆地袒露出来，从而家长与孩子一起探讨问题的源头。在她看来，这是大部分中国教育所欠缺的，也是值得我们反思和学习之处。

Everyone is special. You never know true beauty until you meet the right person. Julie is kind-hearted, optimistic-minded, not scared of difficulties, she dares to pursue but not blindly follow.She liked Bryce for a long time.And she showed all her feelings, which embodied a person's generosity and courage.In real life, we may not be able to meet such a shining and exciting person like Julie, but we can change ourselves, polish ourselves and gradually become such a person.At this age, our elders are not afraid that we will fall in love in our teens, but that we may meet the wrong person, not the one who really loves us, that is not love, that is delay.Our life is very short, cherish those who love you, not only your lover, but also your family and friends.The most important thing I want to say is that as we grow up, we need to learn to love with dignity, confidence and purity, but remember to do the right things at the right time.

戴同学 Shopaholics

第四位出场的是戴同学，他探讨了当下社会一个热门的现象——盲目购物。随着社会经济的发展，人们的生活水平显著提高，越来越多的人开始盲目购物，这种无节制的购物者被称为购物狂。针对这种现象，他指出从宏观角度看，经济的发展促进人们购买力的提升，从而有更多的选择去购物;从微观角度看，研究表明，购物会使人的大脑产生一种化学物质——多巴胺，这种物质会让人感到开心和愉悦，因而很多人通过购物来消除负面情绪。对此，他提出两种建议，一是购物前列一个购物清单，二是定制了一个环保购物袋，上面印了一些抵制盲目消费的图片和文字，从而时刻提醒自己做一个理性的消费者。最后，他积极呼吁大家不要疯狂购物，不要让无尽的欲望去支配大脑!

Shopping crazy refers to buying all the things that one may desire for without thinking. As we all know this kind of phenomenon is more often seen in women, but there are also men, in the shopping malls being crazy about purchasing and discounts. On macroscopic level, now the world economy is developing pretty fast. People's living standard is improving constantly, people have more power and choices to go shopping. On microcosmic level. According to the research, shopping will increase the production of dopamine. Dopamine is chemical substance which produced by human brain which can make people feel happy and jovial.

最后，四位同学均取得了不错的成绩，压轴选手戴同学凭借出色的发挥拿下本场**名，让我们继续期待下一场的精彩演讲吧!
