Dear teachers and classmates: Hello everyone! What I want to talk about today is the rational use of my spare time. According to modern science, everyone has similar potential. Some scientists have confirmed that the brain cells that affect people's IQ are roughly the same. So, why do some people look smart and others are stupid? Some people do something, while others do nothing. Why are people different? In this regard, the great scientist Einstein clearly replied: "The difference between people lies in their spare time." We always think that people are different, with different environments, opportunities, abilities and personalities. What's it like in your spare time? Spare time means rest and recharging for each of us.

Now the "fifth day" is implemented, and some people have made an analysis based on it: if a person's life expectancy is 72 years, his life expectancy is 20 years of sleep, 6 years of eating, 2 years of illness, 8 years of cultural and sports activities, 14 years of work and 22 years of leisure. Visible leisure time is the most. Obviously, apart from the time necessary for life and work, a person's difference lies in how to develop and use the precious time resources of these 22 years.

On August 20th, XX, Xinhua Weekend reported that Dr. Wang Qiyan, a professor at Renmin University of China, led his research group to conduct a sampling survey on the living time of urban residents in China. The results show that the average daily working time of urban residents in China is 5 hours 1 minute, the necessary time for personal life is 10 hour and 42 minutes, the housework time is 2 hours 2 1 minute, and the leisure time is 6 hours 6 minutes. The four types of activities account for 265,438+0%, 44%, 65,438+00% and 25% of the total time respectively. Every day, people in the city spend it like this. Since 10, people's leisure time has increased by 69 minutes, accounting for 1/3 of people's life. However, China residents spend 3 hours and 38 minutes in front of the TV every day, killing half of their leisure time. Japanese and Americans watch TV for 1 hour 37 minutes and 2 hours 14 minutes respectively.

The survey results also show that people with higher education degrees or above have four times the lifetime working hours and more than seven times the income of those with lower education. The higher the education, the more attention is paid to lifelong learning, and the average daily learning time is 6 1 minute.

At all times and all over the world, those who have made achievements and made a fortune have made full use of their spare time. In 19XX, American scientist Cole easily proved that the 67th power of 2 minus 1 is a composite formula, thus correcting the wrong answer that has been regarded as a prime number for more than 200 years. People present asked him how long it took him to study the result, and Cole replied, "All Sundays in three years." One morning when the famous painter Qi Baishi was 85 years old, he wrote four banners with the inscription: "It was windy last night, and I was restless. I didn't draw. Now I'm here to make up for it, and I won't teach for a day. " One of the important reasons why Qi Lao's paintings have reached perfection is that he abides by the creed of "not teaching for a day".

In fact, as long as we pay attention, we will find that many people around us become excellent because they make full use of their spare time. On the contrary, those who have accomplished nothing just don't know how to cherish their spare time. Some people show a feeling of slackness, boredom and emptiness in front of the "weekend". Some stay up late to "build the Great Wall", and some are addicted to the bar dance floor and exhausted; Others spend a lot of spare time on interpersonal communication. Because of overwork, I have no spirit at work and suffer from "Monday syndrome", which not only violates the proper meaning of weekends, but also wastes a lot of beautiful time in my life, widening the gap between myself and others, and finally ends up "empty and sad"! As a philosopher said, "leisure time produces talents, idlers, drunkards, and even hooligans and criminals."

For us middle school students, the best way to use our spare time is reading. Books are the ladder of human progress, and books are the nourishment of the whole world. Life without books is like the earth without sunshine; Wisdom without books is like a bird without wings. Reading can broaden our horizons, broaden our knowledge and make us truly a knowledgeable person. Someone has done a calculation, if every teenager reads ten minutes more every day, then after a month's accumulation, he can have five hours of reading time, which is enough for us to finish reading a famous book.

But the use of spare time is not limited to this. Lenin said, if you don't rest, you won't work. There's an old saying in China, sharpening a knife doesn't miss a woodcutter. It can be seen that in our spare time, we should also arrange our rest time reasonably to achieve a combination of work and rest. An efficient person often doesn't work hard blindly, but takes a rest after work, relaxes his mood and adjusts his psychology and physiology. This is also the reason why the school arranges for us to have spare time.

In a word, facing the treasure of spare time, our correct attitude should be to study hard, have a positive rest, give full play to our maximum efficiency and really make use of our treasure. thank you
