新年的英语演讲稿（精选30篇）
good evening,ladies and gentlemen,
today,my topic is about expressing the appreciation to our mothers.
a few days ago,i have read a news about a mother who walked 18 days back home after a visit to her son who works in the city.the mother did this just because she wanted to save 100 yuan for
him.during the jurney,she had to beg for meals and ask people to take her in in the night.sometimes,unfortunately,she got nothing and had to sleep in caves with starvation.18 days later,when the police found her,she was exhausted and weak.the mother is already 52 years
old,what`s her motivation for doing thisi think everybody knows the answer,yes,it`s the selfless love for her son.
we always say that mother love is the greatest love in the world,as we are growing,we enjoy the delicious food she cooked,we enjoy the clean clothes she washed,we get used to the privilege she gave us. then,gradually,we just take it for granted and begin to find her nagging.we tend to pay less attention to her and sometimes even ignore her.ladies and gentlemen,can you remember what did you do to show your mother your love on her birthdaysi am pretty sure that the younger you were,the more attention you would pay.even though, your mother still love you the same.
on mother`s day,i received a message from one of my best
friends,she said:i am appreciated to your mother for giving birth to you 20 years ago,because it gave me the chance to become your friend.i was moved by these words and can`t help thinking: what a mother isshe is the one who will walk for 18 days just to save 100
yuan for you.she is the one who will keep loving you and expect no return.she is the one who has already sacrificed a lot for you and is ready to sacrifice more.whybecause she got the name mother immediately after you were born.
so,ladies and gentlemen,please be greatful to our mothers, and please cherish the miracle our mothers have made since the
day we came to this world.
thank you very much !

Class 7. WFLS. Am I too late to say it’s just like a dream come true?
Quite frankly, military training is tiring. I’ve been told a million times about how exhausted I would be as soon as I finished this grueling training, and I don’t have any objection about that. However, now, I’ve got an Yes and No! I mean, physically,Yes, I have sun-tanned skin right now and for the first time I loathe being under the sun. Not to mention my sore legs and back. But this is just the heads of the coin. Tails, which means mentally, No! My inability to find proper words to express my feelings seems more and more overwhelming. Incredible? Unbelievable? Marvellous? Extremely impeccable maybe? These words are pale in comparison to the big picture of my future life. It’s like unwittingly, you fall in love with a new group of people, you feel for everything, you fall for everything.
I don’t know if I am being sensitive here. I remember us sprint out the door to assemble because we are running late. I remember us complaining about the miserable food when it’s time for lunch. I remember us sitting weirdly comfortable in a cool dark place when other classes were sweating. I remember us sharing jaw-dropping details about our lives and feel connected to others. I remember all those moments of rapture and ecstasy, all those senses of déjà vu, all those smiles of genuine happiness.
It’s like suddenly, I am no longer a prosaic girl living a plain life. It’s been a long time since the last time I didn’t regard myself as a catastrophe. As a lonely highway.The strong hope for the future made me the girl on fire. As I spoke with some friends of my pastimes and passions, words of such silky texture poured out from my soul with unparalleled candor and cadence. The voice that issued from my lips was at once richer, deeper, stronger than I had ever produced. It was as though an inner self, a core essence, had broken free and taken control. I broke out of my niche!
Anyway, I shouldn’t be too excited because it’s just five days. Even though I have already found some friends with extraordinarily similar interests as I do. Even though this is breaking news for me because I enjoyed be in this together finally. Even though the words of encouragements faded, I still recall them from time to time to taste it all over again. I swear I’m not severed from reality. Momentarily, it’s just impossible to describe all the details that happened during 5 days. I just need to speak all these things about how delighted I am to be in this class and try to be in tranquility…
I am a relatively total stranger to my new school. But it’s such a sensory bombardment for me even to think about it. I wanna be a part of something I don’t know. A fledging dragonfly is ready. I believe that the monarch will be crowned. May the best man win! You are gonna hear Class 7 ROAR!
Ps. I’d better start packing…
Good morning,dear teacher and my friends!
My name is .I’m a student of Great 7 from middle school. I ’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech today. My topic is “the importance of time”.
Someone says: “Time is money!” But I think time is even more important than money. Why? Because when money is spent, we can get it back. However, When time is gone,It will never return no matter how rich you are.
But it is a pity that there are a lot of people who do not know the importance of time . They spend all day on smorking, drinking and playing.They do not know that wasting time means wasting life.
As to us, a middle schoole student, School time is a very important period for our growing up. We should make full use of it to do something usefull, just like learning different kinds of knowledge , taking exercise for a good health and so on.
In a word , we should save time.Time is limited and so，very precious. It will not return any more when it is gone.
That’s all for my speech.Thank you!
Panda is one of the scarcest animals. People in the world like it very much. there used to be many pandas in China long ago. As the balance of nature was destroyed and the weather was getting warmer and warmer, pandas became less. But at present, the number of pandas is increasing year by year. there are now so many pandas that some are being sent to other countries so that people there can enjoy them.
Nowadays, the biggest nature park for panda in China is in Sichuan. there is a research centre for nature and wild life there. Scientists hope that one day they will have enough pandas to be set free and let them live in the wild again.
students， we come from？ to hear this question， i am sure you will say that parents are taken to put us up in the world. yes ah， one day more than a decade ago， our parents happy with tears and smiles to greet the arrival of the u.s.. but when we came to the world the moment that many parents have a hard job - we take care of. this is even though a heavy burden， but has no complaints to parents raising me up.
in order to give us a comfortable living environment， they are always so hard， then the effort. small， i always treat this issue as a matter of course， because i do not know， nor do i know the hard work of parents. now， i grew up， and i know with a heart of thanksgiving to appreciate their parents， should take on， take care of， the responsibility of your parents
there is an old said： ＂the milk of the sheep have to kneel tu， a feed has meaning.＂ bit by bit， our growth can not be separated from their parents to help when the water springs of the tu reported that， therefore， we should know how to feel gratitude for it， know how to thank their parents .
call us first time parents， first step towards independence， the first to write a word askew when ... ... are parents around to teach us patience. parents， are giving us god does not require any modification of the sustenance of the soul.
when we are confronted with difficulties， to devote all of us to help people， their parents are.
when we are wronged， to be patient to listen to our cry of the people， their parents are.
when we make mistakes， he will not hesitate to forgive us who are parents.
when we succeed， would like for us to celebrate， to share with us the pleasure， are the parents.
and now far away in our field study， it is still concerned about our parents.
... ...
now i left the distant parents， came here， the mother will ask me homesick， i very firmly said： ＂no， certainly not！＂
but to the school， in the face of unfamiliar faces unfamiliar environment， i want to cry well. are upset when the home to the phone， the mother the right to ask me please. my tears quickly down， and tried to not let her find.
not familiar with the latter slowly， although it was no longer such as homesickness， but there are always unhappy when the advent of a lot of times at night， when feeling lonely， they will naturally think of distant family members， think of it in the remote mountain village in their own lives more than a dozen of the spring and autumn， and a phone call out greetings and listen to the voices of parents and that kind.
Dear teacher, dear students:
Since ancient times, the plum blossom is always open in the New Year. Snowy, plum blossom launched a blushing face. No matter how ugly it used to be, but the spring is coming, to free the unfolding of a smiling face. , it is still beautiful, it is still fragrant.
Floral, we also is such. New Years day festival, is a new starting point and end point will be abandoned. New laugh, calling, enlightenment, will install a new wing for us. In the new beginning, we have to show a new self, to let others see us the most beautiful smile. Lets cheer for themselves, with their own hands feet on the ground, trying to climb to the summit of victory. Glory belongs to success, success belongs to the efforts, and strive to belong to hard...
We are going to study the plum flower is proud snow let alone, let us in teenage years blossom a bright smiling face, let white wings took us to the wider heaven, be a proud snow let alone good student!
My speech finished, thank you!
and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
My idol is not the teacher nor tireless in teaching others, worship the renowned star light, but my mother has been bred.
I remember when I was a child, I was born sick. I closed my eyes, quietly on the bed rest. Sometimes my brow, and breathing heavily, the pain of torture made her lose vitality. Mother saw my face pale without a trace of blood, an_ious in mind, and finally, my mother made up her mind to take me to the doctor.
Mom called me from the bed, so I got up and struggled to sit up in bed, pale face was contorted with pain, thin sweat oozed from his forehead, as if every move is great torment. Get out of bed, my mother took me out to the bus station, I saw neither fast nor slow to move forward, and her mother an_ious to go, I fear that the disease was delayed. We just got on the bus. Unfortunately, God changed his face and it began to rain cats and dogs. As if the broken line of pearls fell down one by one. There were two people in the car, one of whom was drenched through the side window, and the other was affected a bit. The mother took the bag towel wipe, then hesitated, because if she chooses to let me sit in the wet chair, and he sat ne_t to the position, is impossible, I'm afraid no mother will do it. But if Mom chooses to keep our mother and daughter standing, I can't stand even when I'm sick, let alone the rickety car! My mother sat bravely in the drenched position, letting me sit ne_t to her and blocking my rain with a huge body. This time I go, unaware. It's raining harder and harder as if to drown the world. My mother shivered, but I didn't look at it. The young I begin to cry, the mother said: “ a mother, I want to change my seat with you, I want to see the scenery. &rdquo: I looked at my mother with innocent eyes, but my mother shook her head resolutely, without hesitation. I pursed a small mouth, lit the sulk. To the hospital, we got off the bus, I stared at my mother with resentment eyes, but saw the mother's right has been wet, I suddenly tears, hugged her mother said: “ I'm sorry, mom, I never so headstrong ”. Mom said, "&ldquo, it doesn't matter. You're sick. I can't let you get wet in the rain, &rdquo.";. Say and smile.
Mother's love for me is so holy, so noble, so selfless. Isn't that enough to be my idol?
Dear friends:
If you can dream it, you can do it.——Walt Disney
It was a long four years. Even after I had actually graduated, the nightmares began to haunt me, the university would call to say I hadn’t truly graduated. There had been a mistake and there was just one more class I needed to take. I was always so relieved to wake up and realize that it had only been a bad dream. In reality, I had completed every course needed for my degree, and I was a full-fledged college graduate!
Now, the rest of my life loomed ahead of me. Sometimes a bachelor’s degree prepares you for a specific occupation——you train to be an accountant, you graduate and get a position in an accounting firm. Often, however, your stint in college only prepares you to make further decisions regarding your future. You’re pretty sure what you don’t want to do!
During my senior year of college, I had toyed with the idea of changing my major. At that point, I had finally discovered what captured my heart. But, wanting to finally be finishing school was a stronger pull. So, I took a few courses in physiology and exercise science, but not enough to receive a degree in physical therapy. That would require advanced schooling, beyond my bachelor’s degree——and I just wasn’tready to tackle that. Having completed my B.C. degree, I didn’t have any intentions of furthering my education.
So, I did the safe thing and got an office job——the very thing I was sure that I didn’t want to do! I detested the office policies, the suits I had to wear and the downtown environment that I had to drive to every day. I knew this was not where I belonged.
But god knew what path my career was to follow. A position opened up at the most exclusive health club in our city, so I applied. This was my kind of environment——an active, vibrant kind of place——completely at the opposite end of the spectrum from the office environment where I found myself. The position required that I work Saturday nights and Sunday mornings. Perfect, I thought! I could keep my office job Monday through Friday and work at my dream job on the weekends. This arrangement lasted several months until, eventually, a full-time position opened up and I was able to resign from my office job.
Over the next few years, I worked my way up the leader, gaining experience in several different departments. I found my niche as the director of member services——catering to our clientele and providing them with numerous cutting-edge programs. I would have stayed at that job forever——it seemed to be the pinnacle of all my dreams fulfilled. Here were fellow employees who had a passion for the same things that I did——health and fitness. Yet again, god had other plans for my life.Within two years, a newer, bigger, better and more state-of-the-art health club facility was built——just five miles down the road. And, in turn, the owner lost many members to that club. And, in turn, the owner lost thousands of dollars. One by one we were each laid off.
After trying unsuccessfully to land another similar position elsewhere, I knew what I had to do. Go back to school!thanks!
I Am Tripping My Elephant Here
Once upon a time, a weenie ant was walking on his way. As he was walking, suddenly he felt the ground shaking terribly. He looked around with his paranoid eyes and saw an elephant walking right behind him. Quickly, the little ant covered himself with dirt, but one leg was unfortunately left out. A sparrow saw everything, so she flew down with the purpose of teasing the ant: “Hey, chicken! Watch out your leg, it’s out!” The ant felt embarrassed at first but then calmly responded: “ Shi?I am going to trip that elephant.”
Right now, I’m standing on this glamorous stage. But everything here reminds me of is a not so fun memory. Around this time last year I was in Nanjing competing in another speech contest. That was the first time for me to be in such a large event. Of course the pressure I was under was immense too. After a sleepless and stressful night, I went onto that stage without the feeling in my legs. That speech turned out to be horrible. I don’t remember how I get down from there, but I do remember afterwards I just wanted to find a hole to hide in just like the ant in the story. Back at my school, it took a long time for me to recover. Thanks to all the help I got from my special friends. My confidence was restored. After rounds of giving speeches and answering tough questions, I am here today. From all that I’ve been through I’ve learned that a good future is based on a forgotten past, if I want my life to go on well I have to let go of my past failure. So today, with out fear, I am tripping my elephant again.
See most of us are afraid of the thief, they comes in the night to steal all of our things. But there is a thief in your mind who is after your dreams. His name is you see him call the cops and keep him away from the kids because he is wanted for murder. So he has killed more dreams than failure ever did. He wears many disguises and like a virus will leave you blinded, divided and turn you into a kinda is lethal. You know what kinda is? There is a lot of kinda people, you kinda want a career change, you kinda want to get straight As, you kinda want to get in shape. Simple math, no numbers to crunch. If you kinda want something, then you will kinda get the results you want.

在我这18年的生命中，有着许多美好的经历，而大学生活则是其中最难忘的一段。我永远不会忘记刚刚跨进大学校园的那几天：花园一样的校园，热情活跃的学生，特别是那里的学习气氛，给我留下了深刻的印象。

经过了一段艰辛的军事训练后，我完全融入到了学习中。老师的讲课真是棒极了。他们传授给我们的不仅是课本上的知识，还包括其他各种各样的信息。我渴望获得尽可能多的知识，是老师激发起了我这个不能满足的欲望。

坦率地说，一开始我还不能跟上老师的讲课。但是，通过我自己的努力以及老师的指导，我取得了巨大的进步。我从老师的授课和其他许多学术报告中获益匪浅。

学习是个循序渐进、长期的过程，我会在知识的宝库中不断探索，丰富自我。今年暑假，我跨出象牙塔，进入并接触到了真正的社会。一个出版社给了我编辑和校对的兼职工作。

工作初期，同事们都礁不起我。但是，当我在一天之内翻译完7篇（总字数超过5000字）的英语文章后，他们真的是大吃一惊。渐渐地，他们开始用尊敬的眼光看待我。他们认为，我变成了一个有用并值得信赖的好同事。

我也同样意识到，只有那些为别人带来幸福的人才能真正的幸福。因而，我经常参加有关公众福利享业的活动。有一次，我和同学去了一个贫痔的山区村庄。在那里，我们教那些没钱上学的孩子。我向他们展示了一幅宽广、文明的外部世界的画面，但同时我也被那些孩子学习的渴望、他们的真诚和纯洁深深打动了。在我们离开的那一天，我那不争气的眼泪禁不住流了下来。这次珍贵的经历让我们这些未来的教师意识到了自己肩上的责任重大。

园生活是最丰富多彩的。但是，不同的人有着不同的选择。大多数的学生珍惜他们的美好时光，并殷切希望将来能出类拔萃。可是，的确有学生无动于衷。他们聚在一起吃喝玩乐，他们忙于追求异性朋友，他们完全忘记了自己作为大学生的使命和祖国对他们的厚望。

The topic of my speech is "let didnt fight obesity"!
As we all know the four most beautiful women in ancient China: sink fish xi shi close your month the sable cicada wild goose zhaojun shame to spend Yang. Four big beautiful women there are three willow slender waist graceful but Yang height 1 meter 64 the weight be 138 catties.
Datang fat as beauty datang emperor and Yang are all very favorite godson troops stationed height less than 1 meter 8 the weight be 330 catties.
Yang troops stationed belong to obesity. The medical definition of obesity is that a certain degree of obvious overweight fat layer too thick is the body fat especially triglycerides accumulation is overmuch and lead to a state. Obesity can cause human pathology physiology psychological change is a disorder of latent factors.
Whether their obesity the simplest method comparison method is height and weight minus 30 adult male height minus 50 adult female height is basically equal to the standard weight. Such as troops stationed 1 meter 8 minus 30 is equal to 150 catties. Such as Yang 1 meter 64 minus 50 equal to 114 catties. The 150 and 114 and relative to their height even the standard weight.
Teacher please everyone here oneself measure is overweight. Multiple QiBaJin of course a QiBaJin less also calculate normal. (this can be a slight pause 10 to 20 seconds smile to observe the teachers to measure)
Obesity is generally divided into two categories category because of illness taking hormone cause the endocrine disorder cause obesity. This fat known as symptomatic of obesity. This kind of obese patients accounted for about 5% of the obesity.
Another type of obesity is eating too much eating quantity of heat more than itself heat consumption excess fat accumulated in the body form the fat cells lead to obesity this type of fat is called simple obesity. This kind of obesity more than 90% of the total number of obese people. We beat the main obesity.
The causes of the obesity there are the following:
(1) genetic factors caused by obesity
General parents obesity the possibility of children obesity is big;
(2) the unreasonable diet structure caused by obesity
Mainly due to partial obesity;
(3) too little movement lead to obesity
Modern habits affluent and comfortable living environment the lack of sports consciousness lack of exercise behavior. Some people in particular after the meal down on the bed lay or after a meal a long time sit in front of computers TV sets a sit for hours rarely rarely movement become a otaku women don't go out for a long time "ma3 wu2 ye4’s grass isn't fat" eat sleep eat sitting not fat just strange!
(4) medicial is also the important reason for the obesity
Medicial make human body in the liver spleen kidney dysfunction stocks and so on can't redundant adipose is converted into heat discharge heat deposition in the body cause obesity;
(5) spiritual factors is also one reason for the obesity
As the saying goes: "laugh and grow fat." No thought burden eat sweet digestion absorption also very good. Or "sorrow" eating and drinking these can make heat soar lead to obesity.
We know the definition of obesity we know that the standard of the obesity we know the causes of obesity standards and reasons and suit the remedy to the case the best prescription in addition to the diet not partial eclipse is movement is strong and handsome.
Diet not partial eclipse is very simple hun vegetable collocation is good or bad to eat Chinese food to eat for breakfast dinner only eat my follow this is ok. Best don't "snack" horses have ye4’s grass isn eat satisfied to sleep must fatten up.
Sports fitness is also very simple choose their favorite sports develop early to bed and early to rise makes routine perseverance unceasingly life movement.
To bed early to put it bluntly it is morning early in the evening shut the computer off the TV it must be very simple. However a person as long as the simple one of the most simple little things for a long time for a long time stick to it he will very not easy!
Sports aerobics aerobics can let the muscle oxygen content increased the oxygen content increases can get higher protein in the blood protein were able to increase our number of immune cells and immune cells increases will enhance immunity. At the same time aerobic exercise help the body carcinogens toxic and harmful substances timely drain discharge Julius promote metabolism Julius to speed up the fat consumption there is conducive to mental health.
A person full of energy metabolism the body strong definitely helps with confidence definitely helps spirits certainly beneficial to emotional balance definitely helps the sun is shining definitely helps keep youth!
One of Hong Kong shadow habitat song and dance male star. Birth name orea 20 years height 1 meter 83 72-75 kg health spirit sunshine youth. Has Hong Kong reporter asked hello how are you how do you keep youth?
Hello how are you use English to answer the three tips: 1 smile; 2 peace of mind; 3 intense sport. (1 2 3 it's best to use English speak and then repeat in Chinese)
The three secret was indeed the young and middle-aged people keep the youth is the best medicine.
Smile always can give a person a kind of close to the feeling of affinity harmonious and kind is the manifestation of people and internal quality. The original Shanghai underworld eldest brother the mobsters said "wait have skill no temper." Comedian Hou Yuewen also said "ability is big small temper." Small temper temper show the image of course is the smile.
Peace of mind it is people's inner quality is to control yourself control your emotions. This belongs to emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is a person to myself and to others emotional evaluation adjustment and control ability. People with high emotional intelligence is good at to communicate with people good interpersonal relationship is not easy to own mood swings also not easy is at the mercy of others feelings. Former U.S. President George Bush said: you can transfer the mood you will be able to mobilize all!
Intense movement fundamentally let oneself healthy body healthy body can promote the psychological health physical and mental health can calm can keep smiling.
Between the three secret it is the dialectical unification relations contact each other promote each other. Of course for the elderly not to strenuous exercise simply select the appropriate gentle exercise.
So I want to shout loudly: movement is one of the most important! Go to the sports go to the fitness! Let the sports fitness to overcome!
So I want to actively advocate: body building is one of the most important! Go to the fitness the gym. Again beautiful face body beautiful than you!
Ladies and Gentlemen: My topic is Honesty. As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story. /chuzhong/chusan/ 65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure. In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had to leave. On his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one of the teeth from the dragon’s mouth. He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his conscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 20xx, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome. When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error. Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character. Thank you.

Reading some world famous books is really a good way to learn not only the languagebut also western history and culture as well. So we can understand the language better. FromShakespear to Mark Twain, fromNewton to SharlockHolmes , from Tom Sawyer to Alice, these famous writer and their characters are all my ing newspapersand magazines are also helpful for us to know some new words and different ways of expressions. From newspapers, we can quickly widen our vocabulary and learn about the world. Poems are also good choices. From poems, we can learn lots of graceful words in English these will make our articles colorful and help us to learn English better. Surfing the internet you can also find some good English-learning websites. You can find millions of E-books on line. It’s a time of free reading. So, why not enjoy reading and learning English ?
“A good book is like a good friend.” “Books are the ladder of human progress.”By reading I can learn so much about the world ing is not only beneficial to widen your horizon but also

The Spring Festival is our traditional festival, people called the Spring Festival, Chinese New Year. In my hometown of chaozhou, there are some special New Year customs.
Before the New Years eve, people are busy with four things: thank god, stock to do next, and to buy necessities. Tide vulgar, a year after the winter solstice, home to thank god. "Red peach hair next" material. Is rice and glutinous rice soak in water for a few hours, respectively, to make rice quality pine hydrophobic, remove dry stone mortar into fine powder, after dry. This is to be "red peach method next" main ingredient. Sweep up to choose an auspicious day, is an unusual thing. The Japanese, and are most busy housewives, clean up the inside and out of the room, for some years to use less cleaning.
December 24, is the period of the legendary "heaven god". Day, every family to worship "sugar peach". A square red paper, with jelly into a peach shape, become "peach". It touch live "sovereign" du mouth, let its "some god that speaks well of us fall to the ground. Chinese New Year to worship the "Sir", also is the god. The sacrifices of god are three: "red peach hair next", "the mouse shell next", "vegetable next". "Red peach hair next" is to use green beans to shell, then grinding beans into powder, and then steamed, do next filling. "Carrots next turnip cake."
On the afternoon of New Years day ancestor worship, to New Years eve. Chinese New Year, the home grown a big income, to send "lucky money" to their elders, elders to underage young players to "lucky money", so, every family, cherish the virtues of young embodies the respect for the elderly.
In the first month, chaoshan region have blessing of gods activity, is the temple of god carried to the street parade, people set off firecrackers, burning incense, the blessing. This is chaozhou custom of Spring Festival.
When the bright red sun leaps over the horizon;
We have a new day;
Today, we are going to have a happy and meaningful day. It is the 100th birthday of our mother on campus, based on today and looking forward to the future.
It is a great honor for me to express my sincere wishes to the new members of the new team on behalf of all the old and young players in this exciting moment.
In June, we were intoxicated with warmth; In June, we grow up in happiness. Happy "6" childrens day, in the eyes of hundreds of millions of children are looking forward to, with lightsome pace, cana t, hereby, on behalf of the county of the young pioneers to concern and support our growth of every leader, said the most sincere thank you, from all walks of life to the hard work and selfless dedication of teachers said the most lofty respect! In June the green grass is green and vibrant. The songs of June are repeated, and they sing a brilliant heart. We are the green grass, because the gardeners careful watering; We are the songs, because enterprising is our true portrayal.
I felt great relief when I faced a lively smiling face and put bright red scarves on their chests. Because under the same blue sky, the wild geese of the same lawn joined a new class of new members. They will be with us in the future, and they will embrace each other and spend a good time together. Listening to the team songs around them, they set off on a new path. This is a new journey, in the journey, we will take pairs of soft hands, led them to break through difficulties, crossing over to block, pupil composition "the foothold today, look to the future". "Bearing in mind the inculcations of our forefathers, learning from the dedication of lyning and focusing on the activities of the society," will be the words of the young pioneers who have just moved forward. As an old player with six years of practical experience, I am proud to join the young pioneers first. It is a righteous organization that inspires us to move forward every minute of the day, reminding us every second that you are a glorious young pioneer! The red scarf raised on the chest will solemnly tell you, the journey of today has begun, and the beauty of tomorrow will be opened up for you. Here, as an old member of the team, I have a word to tell you: "the road to the future is your own, and the new day needs to be created by yourself."
Looking forward to the new century, hope and pressure coexist, ideal and strive to fly together. All young pioneers, we are the future and hope of our motherland, and we know the important task on our shoulders.

Take advantage of the flaming youth, seize the opportunity of hope, hold up the boat of destiny, hold up tomorrows Yang, for the future of young pioneers! Let tomorrow be proud of us! Let us always be ready to meet new challenges and create new splendor.
Todays campus is more red, grass is greener, and people are more beautiful. When I stand here and celebrate my holiday, my heart is filled with emotion, and the vivid memories of growing up in my heart! How many times we enjoy the care of the spring breeze? Countless times, feel a pair of powerful big hand to help us grow up. I do not know when, our shadow in the continuous elongation, the pace but so firm, the dribs and drabs are recording our growth! We work hard, we try, we build a rich knowledge building, and we build our moral foundation.
We are the flowers of our motherland and the future of our motherland. The great cause of socialist construction looks forward to our creation. We should build a good foundation from childhood and cultivate good moral character. Like lei feng and lai ning, we love our party, love our motherland and be good children. We must work hard to learn cultural knowledge, strive for the all-round development of Germany, intelligence, body, beauty and law, and make a new generation of people with ideals, morality, culture and discipline. To become a useful material for the socialist modernization drive, to make more contributions to the motherland and the people.
Students, our task is glorious and arduous. Let us join hands to shoulder the burden of history and meet the beautiful tomorrow!
Good evening, honorable judges, dear teachers, my fellow students: I feel so honored to have this privilege to give you a speech which entitled “A Chinese Dream”. Over two thousand years ago, Confucius, the greatest educator and the idea of “building a world of Datong”. What is “Datong”? In modern peoples eyes, it means “Great Unity”. It refers to a world in which everyone, rich or poor, noble or humble, plays his part appropriately and everything is righteously placed and distributed. It seems that only those illustrious figures like state leaders or great scholars and scientists have the obligation to shoulder this dream of establishing “great unity.” It seems that such an ordinary sophomore in college like me has nothing to do with the realization of this lofty dream. If you should think so, ladies and gentlemen, I am afraid you are wrong, for tonight, I am here to say that as a Chinese, I strongly feel the call of duty from my soul. I am studying here in college to carry on this dream, and I am confident enough to say that I can make my contribution to shape the face of future China. You may say that youve been fed up with such clichs as “studying hard” or “protecting the environment”. Well, I feel exactly the same. Therefore, today instead of thinking and talking big, Id rather discuss my contribution in a comparatively narrow sense: do the best to fulfill my duty. And as I am saying this, right here right now, I am playing my part as a contestant in the integrated skills competition by preparing and delivering a speech to the best of my ability. We all know that big things happen when we do the small things right. In the same conscientious manner as I work out a speech, a teacher tutors every one of his students, a doctor treats every one of his patients, and a government official cares about the general welfare of the people. We can see the power of the individual becomes magical when each person in this society is taking his or her responsibility seriously. Dear friends, although I am nobody, and I cant instill an ideology into your mind, I still, in my own way, hold on tight to the Chinese dream. It is the collection of every single Chinese citizens every little effort that constitutes the everlasting dream of “Datong”. It seems that Ive already envisioned the glorious face of future China in my mind. And Im happy because I have done my bit to help shape it by being the best of me today. How about you, my fellow students? Finally, may the blessings of Datong be with China forever. Thank you!
We've all been taught that we should help people. It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. It may even win us favors in return. However, we must be realistic. We can't say yes to every request. If we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. In this case, we must know how to say no politely.
When we need to say no, here is one method we can try. First, we should tell the truth. If we really can't do something, we should just say so. Second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. We must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. A true friend will understand. Finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. It can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. In short, we cannot please everyone all the time. Refusing favors is a part of life.
I am ten years old, though I am not mature, I am on the way of growing up. Two years ago, I was very shy, I even couldn’t talk to the strangers. But now I have made progress, I can talk to the strangers and make friends with them. I am not the shy girl any more. I have grown up gradually, in the future, I will become more and more better.
美联储主席伯克南普林斯顿大学毕业典礼演讲稿中英双语对照：
It's nice to be back at Princeton. I find it difficult to believe that it's been almost 11 years since I departed these halls for Washington. I wrote recently to inquire about the status of my leave from the university, and the letter I got back began, "Regrettably, Princeton receives many more qualified applicants for faculty positions than we can accommodate."重返普林斯顿感觉不错，很难相信，我离开校园赴华盛顿已经11年了。近期我向校方询问了我的教职问题，回信称：“很遗憾，普林斯顿收到很多更有才华的学者的求职信，而教职有限。”
I'll extend my best wishes to the seniors later, but first I want to congratulate the parents and families here. As a parent myself, I know that putting your kid through college these days is no walk in the park. Some years ago I had a colleague who sent three kids through Princeton even though neither he nor his wife attended this university. He and his spouse were very proud of that accomplishment, as they should have been. But my colleague also used to say that, from a financial perspective, the experience was like buying a new Cadillac every year and then driving it off a cliff. I should say that he always added that he would do it all over again in a minute. So, well done, moms, dads, and families.我将在稍后献上对毕业生的最美好祝愿，首先我要恭喜在座的家长们。作为父母，我知道这年头供孩子读完大学不容易，数年前，我的一个同事有3个孩子毕业于普林斯顿，尽管他们夫妻都不毕业于此，但我的同事常说，从财政角度讲，这如同每年买辆卡迪拉克，然后让车坠崖。他总会补充说，他会毫不犹豫的选择重新来过。所以，感谢你们的工作，母亲们，父亲们，及家人们。
This is indeed an impressive and appropriate setting for a commencement. I am sure that, from this lectern, any number of distinguished spiritual leaders have ruminated on the lessons of the Ten Commandments. I don't have that kind of confidence, and, anyway, coveting your neighbor's ox or donkey is not the problem it used to be, so I thought I would use my few minutes today to make Ten Suggestions, or maybe just Ten Observations, about the world and your lives after Princeton. Please note, these points have nothing whatsoever to do with interest rates. My qualification for making such suggestions, or observations, besides having kindly been invited to speak today by President Tilghman, is the same as the reason that your obnoxious brother or sister got to go to bed later--I am older than you. All of what follows has been road-tested in real-life situations, but past performance is no guarantee of future results.这确实是做毕业典礼演讲的合适场合，我认为，在这一讲台上，每个精神导师都受到过“十诫”的教诲，我没有那样的信心，而且无论无何，觊觎邻居的驴牛已不是目前的问题，所以今年前几分钟我将提出“十个建议”，或称为对这个世界和你们毕业后的生活的十个观察。请注意，这十点与利率毫无关系。我之所以有资格提出这些建议和或观察，除了普林斯顿的善意邀请外，理由和你们讨厌的哥哥姐姐可以晚睡是一个道理：我比你们更老。以下内容均经受过生活的考验，但以往表现并不能确保未来的结果。
1. The poet Robert Burns once said something about the best-laid plans of mice and men ganging aft agley, whatever "agley" means. A more contemporary philosopher, Forrest Gump, said something similar about life and boxes of chocolates and not knowing what you are going to get. They were both right. Life is amazingly unpredictable; any 22-year-old who thinks he or she knows where they will be in 10 years, much less in 30, is simply lacking imagination. Look what happened to me: A dozen years ago I was minding my own business teaching Economics 101 in Alexander Hall and trying to think of good excuses for avoiding faculty meetings. Then I got a phone call... In case you are skeptical of Forrest Gump's insight, here's a concrete suggestion for each of the graduating seniors. Take a few minutes the first chance you get and talk to an alum participating in his or her 25th, or 30th, or 40th reunion--you know, somebody who was near the front of the P-rade. Ask them, back when they were graduating 25, 30, or 40 years ago, where they expected to be today. If you can get them to open up, they will tell you that today they are happy and satisfied in various measures, or not, and their personal stories will be filled with highs and lows and in-betweens. But, I am willing to bet, those life stories will in almost all cases be quite different, in large and small ways, from what they expected when they started out. This is a good thing, not a bad thing; who wants to know the end of a story that's only in its early chapters? Don't be afraid to let the drama play out.1、阿甘曾讲到人生和巧克力的相似性，你不知道下一块巧克力的味道。人生确实难以预料，任何一个认为知道其10年后情况的毕业生，更不同说三十年了，我只能说他或她缺乏想象力。看看我吧，12年前我一心教经济学入门课程，想着编造什么理由不参加教学会议，结果我接到了那个电话。有过你有机会与毕业25年、30年或40年的校友交谈，并使他们敞开心扉，他们将告诉你，他们对生活中哪些事满意或不满意，他们经历过的高潮和低谷。但我敢打赌，他们的人生故事将与预期相异。这是好事而不是坏事，谁想在故事的开篇就知道结局呢？
2. Does the fact that our lives are so influenced by chance and seemingly small decisions and actions mean that there is no point to planning, to striving? Not at all. Whatever life may have in store for you, each of you has a grand, lifelong project, and that is the development of yourself as a human being. Your family and friends and your time at Princeton have given you a good start. What will you do with it? Will you keep learning and thinking hard and critically about the most important questions? Will you become an emotionally stronger person, more generous, more loving, more ethical? Will you involve yourself actively and constructively in the world? Many things will happen in your lives, pleasant and not so pleasant, but, paraphrasing a Woodrow Wilson School adage from the time I was here, "Wherever you go, there you are." If you are not happy with yourself, even the loftiest achievements won't bring you much satisfaction.2、 是否人生偶然性之大的事实，意味着小的决定和行动无足轻重，不需要规划和奋斗呢？当然不是。无论未来人生如何，她将是一个宏大和漫长的项目，是你作为个人 的发展过程。你的家人、朋友和你在普林斯顿的时光已经为你造就了良好的开端，未来你会如何？你会不断学习、竭力思索、对至关重要的问题持批判态度吗？你会 成为情感上更强大、更大度、更有爱心、更道德的人吗？你会更积极的、更建设性的参与世事吗？你的人生会有很多故事，快乐的，及不太快乐的，如果你不为自己 感到快乐，就连最伟大的成就业也不会让你感到满足。
3. The concept of success leads me to consider so-called meritocracies and their implications. We have been taught that meritocratic institutions and societies are fair. Putting aside the reality that no system, including our own, is really entirely meritocratic, meritocracies may be fairer and more efficient than some alternatives. But fair in an absolute sense? Think about it. A meritocracy is a system in which the people who are the luckiest in their health and genetic endowment; luckiest in terms of family support, encouragement, and, probably, income; luckiest in their educational and career opportunities; and luckiest in so many other ways difficult to enumerate--these are the folks who reap the largest rewards. The only way for even a putative meritocracy to hope to pass ethical muster, to be considered fair, is if those who are the luckiest in all of those respects also have the greatest responsibility to work hard, to contribute to the betterment of the world, and to share their luck with others. As the Gospel of Luke says (and I am sure my rabbi will forgive me for quoting the New Testament in a good cause): "From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded" (Luke 12:48, New Revised Standard Version Bible). Kind of grading on the curve, you might say.3、 成功的概念促使我考虑所谓的精英主义及其含义。精英是在健康和基因上最幸运的人，他们在家庭支持、鼓励上，或在收入上也是最幸运的，他们在教育和职业机遇 上最幸运，他们在很多方面都最幸运，一般人难以复制。一个精英体制是否公平，要看这些精英是否有义务努力工作、致力于建设更好的世界，并与他人分享幸运。
4. Who is worthy of admiration? The admonition from Luke--which is shared by most ethical and philosophical traditions, by the way--helps with this question as well. Those most worthy of admiration are those who have made the best use of their advantages or, alternatively, coped most courageously with their adversities. I think most of us would agree that people who have, say, little formal schooling but labor honestly and diligently to help feed, clothe, and educate their families are deserving of greater respect--and help, if necessary--than many people who are superficially more successful. They're more fun to have a beer with, too. That's all that I know about sociology.4、谁值得尊重？是那些充分利用其优势，或勇敢面对逆境的人。我想我们会认同，那些虽然接受的正式教育不多，但诚实劳动、勤勉的为家人提供衣食和教育的人，相比更多表面上很成功的人，更值得尊重，和他们喝两杯是更有趣的事情。
5. Since I have covered what I know about sociology, I might as well say something about political science as well. In regard to politics, I have always liked Lily Tomlin's line, in paraphrase: "I try to be cynical, but I just can't keep up." We all feel that way sometime. Actually, having been in Washington now for almost 11 years, as I mentioned, I feel that way quite a bit. Ultimately, though, cynicism is a poor substitute for critical thought and constructive action. Sure, interests and money and ideology all matter, as you learned in political science. But my experience is that most of our politicians and policymakers are trying to do the right thing, according to their own views and consciences, most of the time. If you think that the bad or indifferent results that too often come out of Washington are due to base motives and bad intentions, you are giving politicians and policymakers way too much credit for being effective. Honest error in the face of complex and possibly intractable problems is a far more important source of bad results than are bad motives. For these reasons, the greatest forces in Washington are ideas, and people prepared to act on those ideas. Public service isn't easy. But, in the end, if you are inclined in that direction, it is a worthy and challenging pursuit.5、 提到政治，愤世嫉俗是批判性思考和建设性行动的更糟糕的替代品。当然，利益、金钱和意识形态都有影响力，如你在政治课上所学。但我的感受是大部分政界人士 都在寻求做正确的事情，大部分时候，这由他们的观点和意识决定。在复杂及难于处理的问题上所犯的诚实错误，更是糟糕结果的主要原因，而非不良动机。因此， 华盛顿最有影响的力量是观念和想法，人们基于这些观念去行动。公共服务并不轻松，如果你选择了这一道路，那是值得的，并颇具挑战性。
6. Having taken a stab at sociology and political science, let me wrap up economics while I'm at it. Economics is a highly sophisticated field of thought that is superb at explaining to policymakers precisely why the choices they made in the past were wrong. About the future, not so much. However, careful economic analysis does have one important benefit, which is that it can help kill ideas that are completely logically inconsistent or wildly at variance with the data. This insight covers at least 90 percent of proposed economic policies.6、经济学是颇具诡辩性的思维领域，她在解释决策者以往所犯错误方面显得很崇高，但在预测未来时，则不仅如此。然而，谨慎的经济分析确有重要益处，她能去除那些不合逻辑或与数据不符的想法，这对90%的经济政策建议有影响。
7. I'm not going to tell you that money doesn't matter, because you wouldn't believe me anyway. In fact, for too many people around the world, money is literally a life-or-death proposition. But if you are part of the lucky minority with the ability to choose, remember that money is a means, not an end. A career decision based only on money and not on love of the work or a desire to make a difference is a recipe for unhappiness.7、我不会告诉你们金钱无用，反正你们也不会听的。事实上，对全球很多人来说，金钱能够决定生存还是死亡。但如果你属于那些幸运得有能力进行抉择的少数人，请记住，金钱只是途径，而非最终目标。职业选择基于收入、而非热爱，或做出贡献的热情，是日后苦恼的根源。
8. Nobody likes to fail but failure is an essential part of life and of learning. If your uniform isn't dirty, you haven't been in the game.8、没有人希望失败，但失败是生活和学习的一部分。如果你衣衫整齐，你并没有进入比赛。
9. I spoke earlier about definitions of personal success in an unpredictable world. I hope that as you develop your own definition of success, you will be able to do so, if you wish, with a close companion on your journey. In making that choice, remember that physical beauty is evolution's way of assuring us that the other person doesn't have too many intestinal parasites. Don't get me wrong, I am all for beauty, romance, and sexual attraction--where would Hollywood and Madison Avenue be without them? But while important, those are not the only things to look for in a partner. The two of you will have a long trip together, I hope, and you will need each other's support and sympathy more times than you can count. Speaking as somebody who has been happily married for 35 years, I can't imagine any choice more consequential for a lifelong journey than the choice of a traveling companion.9、 我希望你们能够发展自身对成功的定义，在这一过程中，你们能够选择一位亲密的伴侣。在做出选择时，要记住外表美只是人类演变的一种方式，它使我们确信对方 没有肠道寄生虫。不要误解我，我也为美丽、浪漫和性所吸引，不然美国影视业和广告业怎么生存下去呢？但尽管重要，这些不是寻找人生伴侣时需要考虑的事 情。你们将共同走过人生旅程，需要对方的支持和关爱。作为已婚35年的人士，我想象不到比选择人生伴侣更重要的事情。
10. Call your mom and dad once in a while. A time will come when you will want your own grown-up, busy, hyper-successful children to call you. Also, remember who paid your tuition to Princeton.10、时不时的给父母去个电话。早晚有一天，你希望自己长大成人的、工作繁忙的、超级成功的孩子给你来个电话，再者，请记着谁供养你上的大学。
Those are my suggestions. They're probably worth exactly what you paid for them. But they come from someone who shares your affection for this great institution and who wishes you the best for the future.
Congratulations, graduates. Give 'em hell.最后，毕业生们，给他们点颜色看看。
We've all been taught that we should help people. It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. It may even win us favors in return. However, we must be realistic. We can't say yes to every request. If we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. In this case, we must know how to say no politely.
When we need to say no, here is one method we can try. First, we should tell the truth. If we really can't do something, we should just say so. Second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. We must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. A true friend will understand. Finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. It can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. In short, we cannot please everyone all the time. Refusing favors is a part of life.
Youth
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!
the duality of money has been puzzling people since its first appearante.on the one hand, clean money can sweeten your life, help you succeed and be yourlifelong faithful companion. on the other hand, dirty money may posion yourmind, ruin your happiness and discard you suddenly as a false friend.
the market economy tells us that everyone should earn a living by sellingsomething. professors sell their knowledge, workers sell their labor, farmerssell their produce. money now appears more powerful than anything else anddrives people crazy. the temptation of money often challenges one’s honor. weare not ashamed to make more money to have a better life by our sweat.however,there is a widespread concern that millionaires become the heroes nomatter whether they make any contribution to our society. some people trydesperately to make big money, which, more often than not, end up withdegradation, corruption and crime.
though money is indispensable to our life, dirty money may drag us intohell. there are many things no money can buy. we will keep our honor intact atany cost because it is our soul. love of money is the root of all evil. formyself, i would rather die than dishonor myself for money.
自从钱存在的第一天开始，对于钱的定义一直令人费解。一方面，干净钱能变甜你的生活，帮助你取得成功，并成为您一生忠实的伴侣。另一方面，脏钱可能破坏你的幸福和抛弃你突然作为一个虚假的朋友。
市场经济告诉我们，每个人都应该谋生卖东西。教授出售他们的知识，出售他们的劳动工人，农民出售他们的农产品。钱现在看来更强大的比其他任何事情都和驱动器的人疯了。金钱的诱惑常常挑战一个人的荣誉。我们并不感到羞耻赚更多的钱有一个更美好的生活我们的汗水。然而，人们普遍关切的是，成为百万富翁的英雄，无论他们做出任何贡献，我们的社会。有些人试图拼命赚钱，而更多的，往往不是最终退化，腐败和犯罪。
虽然钱是必不可少的，我们的生活，脏钱可能拖累我们带入地狱。有很多事情没有钱可以买到。我们将继续我们的荣誉完整不惜任何代价，因为这是我们的灵魂。爱钱是万恶之源。我自己，我宁可死比侮辱自己的钱。
When you are a kid, you get asked this one particular question a lot, it really gets kind of annoying. What do you want to be when you grow up? Now, adults are hoping for answers like, I want to be an astronaut or I want to be a neurosurgeon, you’re adults in your imaginations.
Kids, they’re most likely to answer with pro-skateboarder, surfer or minecraft player. I asked my little brother, and he said, seriously dude, I’m 10, I have no idea, probably a pro-skier, let’s go get some ice cream.
See, us kids are going to answer something we’re stoked on, what we think is cool, what we have experience with, and that’s typically the opposite of what adults want to hear.
But if you ask a little kid, sometimes you’ll get the best answer, something so simple, so obvious and really profound. When I grow up, I want to be happy.
For me, when I grow up, I want to continue to be happy like I am now. I’m stoked to be here at TedEx, I mean, I’ve been watching Ted videos for as long as I can remember, but I never thought I’d make it on the stage here so soon. I mean, I just became a teenager, and like most teenage boys, I spend most of my time wondering, how did my room get so messy all on its own.
Did I take a shower today? And the most perplexing of all, how do I get girls to like me? Neurosciences say that the teenage brain is pretty weird, our prefrontal cortex is underdeveloped, but we actually have more neurons than adults, which is why we can be so creative, and impulsive and moody and get bummed out.
But what bums me out is to know that, a lot of kids today are just wishing to be happy, to be healthy, to be safe, not bullied, and be loved for who they are. So it seems to me when adults say, what do you want to be when you grow up? They just assume that you’ll automatically be happy and healthy.
Well, maybe that’s not the case, go to school, go to college, get a job, get married, boom, then you’ll be happy, right? You don’t seem to make learning how to be happy and healthy a priority in our schools, it’s separate from schools. And for some kids, it doesn’t exists at all? But what if we didn’t make it separate? What if we based education on the study and practice of being happy and healthy, because that’s what it is, a practice, and a simple practice at that?
Education is important, but why is being happy and healthy not considered education, I just don’t get it. So I’ve been studying the science of being happy and healthy. It really comes down to practicing these eight things. Exercise, diet and nutrition, time in nature, contribution, service to others, relationships, recreation, relaxation and stress management, and religious or spiritual involvement, yes, got that one.
So these eight things come from Dr. Roger Walsh, he calls them Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes or TLCs for short. He is a scientist that studies how to be happy and healthy. In researching this talk, I got a chance to ask him a few questions like; do you think that our schools today are making these eight TLCs a priority? His response was no surprise, it was essentially no. But he did say that many people do try to get this kind of education outside of the traditional arena, through reading and practices such as meditation or yoga.
But what I thought was his best response was that, much of education is oriented for better or worse towards making a living rather than making a life.
In 20__, Sir Ken Robinson gave the most popular Ted talk of all time. Schools kill creativity. His message is that creativity is as important as literacy, and we should treat it with the same status.
A lot of parents watched those videos, some of those parents like mine counted it as one of the reasons they felt confident to pull their kids from traditional school to try something different. I realized I’m part of this small, but growing revolution of kids who are going about their education differently, and you know what? It freaks a lot of people out.
Even though I was only nine, when my parents pulled me out of the school system, I can still remember my mom being in tears when some of her friends told her she was crazy and it was a stupid idea.
Looking back, I’m thankful she didn’t cave to peer pressure, and I think she is too. So, out of the 200 million people that have watched Sir Ken Robinson’s talk, why aren’t there more kids like me out there?
Shane McConkey is my hero. I loved him because he was the world’s best skier. But then, one day I realized what I really loved about Shane, he was a hacker. Not a computer hacker, he hacked skiing. His creativity and inventions made skiing what it is today, and why I love to ski. A lot of people think of hackers as geeky computer nerds who live in their parent’s basement and spread computer viruses, but I don’t see it that way.
Hackers are innovators, hackers are people who challenge and change the systems to make them work differently, to make them work better, it’s just how they think, it’s a mindset.
I’m growing up in a world that needs more people with the hacker mindset, and not just for technology, everything is up for being hacked, even skiing, even education. So whether it’s Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg or Shane McConkey having the hacker mindset can change the world.
Healthy, happy, creativity in the hacker mindset are all a large part of my education. I call it Hackschooling, I don’t use any one particular curriculum, and I’m not dedicated to any one particular approach, I hack my education.
I take advantage of opportunities in my community, and through a network of my friends and family. I take advantage of opportunities to experience what I’m learning, and I’m not afraid to look for shortcuts or hacks to get a better faster result. It’s like a remix or a mash-up of learning. It’s flexible, opportunistic, and it never loses sight of making happy, healthy and creativity a priority.
And here is the cool part, because it’s a mindset, not a system. Hackschooling can be used anyone, even traditional schools. Soo what does my school look like? Well, it looks like Starbucks a lot of the time, but like most kids I study lot of math, science, history and writing. I didn’t used to like to write because my teachers made me write about butterflies and rainbows, and I wanted to write about skiing.
It was a relief for my good friend’s mom, started the Squaw Valley Kids Institute, where I got to write through my experiences and my interests, while, connecting with great speakers from around the nation, and that sparked my love of writing.
I realized that once you’re motivated to learn something, you can get a lot done in a short amount of time, and on your own, Starbucks is pretty great for that. Hacking physics was fun, we learned all about Newton and Galileo, and we experienced some basic physics concepts like kinetic energy through experimenting and making mistakes.
My favorite was the giant Newton’s cradle that we made out of bowling balls, no bocce balls. We experimented with lot of other things like bowling balls and event giant jawbreakers.
Project Discovery’s ropes course is awesome, and slightly stressful. When you’re 60 feet off the ground, you have to learn how to handle your fears, communicate clearly, and most importantly, trust each other.
Community organizations play a big part in my education, High Fives Foundation’s Basics Program being aware and safe in critical situations. We spent a day with the Squaw Valley Ski Patrol to learn more about mountain safety, then the next day we switched to science of snow, weather and avalanches.
But most importantly, we learned that making bad decisions puts you and your friends at risk. Young should talk, well brings history to life. You study a famous character in history, and so that you can stand on stage and perform as that character, and answer any question about their lifetime.
In this photo, you see Al Capone and Bob Marley getting grilled with questions at the historical Piper’s Opera House in Virginia City, the same stage where Harry Houdini got his start.
Time and nature is really important to me, it’s calm, quiet and I get to just log out of reality. I spend one day a week, outside all day. At my Fox Walkers classes, our goal is to be able to survive in the wilderness with just a knife. We learn to listen to nature, we learn to sense our surroundings, and I’ve gained a spiritual connection to nature that, I never knew existed.
But the best part is that we get to make spears, bows and arrows, fires with just a bow drill and survival shelters for the snowy nights when we camp out. Hanging out at the Moment Factory where they hand make skis and design clothes, has really inspired me to one day have my own business. The guys at the factory showed me why I need to be good at math, be creative and get good at selling.
So I got an internship at Big Shark Print to get better at design and selling. Between fetching lunch, scrubbing toilets and breaking their vacuum cleaner, I’m getting to contribute to clothing design, customizing hats and selling them. The people who work there are happy, healthy, creative, and stoked to be doing what they are doing, this is by far my favorite class.
So, this is why I’m really happy, powder days, and it’s a good metaphor for my life, my education, my hackschooling. If everyone ski this mountain, like most people think of education, everyone will be skiing the same line, probably the safest and most of the powder would go untouched.
I look at this, and see a thousand possibilities, dropping the corners, shredding the spine, looking for a churning from cliff-to-cliff. Skiing to me is freedom, and so is my education, it’s about being creative; doing things differently, it’s about community and helping each other. It’s about being happy and healthy among my very best friends.
So I’m starting to think, I know what I might want to do when I grow up, but if you ask me what do I want to be when I grow up? I’ll always know that I want to be happy. Thank you.
Well, its almost 20xx and I want to begin by wishing everybody in Britain a very happy NewYear.
For the Green Party, were looking forward with optimism, confidence and determination. 20xx was a huge year for us. We saw our membership more than triple. We saw 1.1 millionvotes in the General Election, more than four times more votes than weve ever won before. Wesaw the return of Caroline Lucas as our brilliant Green MP.
So 20xx – this is the year in which we need to turn the Green surge into Green votes andthats what were determined to do. What we need to do is, up and down the country, providepeople with the real alternative. And that is what we are doing.
Because so many people, up and down the country, when we look at the local council electionsthat are coming up, are facing local government thats totally, or almost, a one-party state.They are finding that theyre not having the tough questions asked. The local council isntgetting the scrutiny it needs.
So, sure, local councils are suffering enormously under the governments hideous program ofausterity, but we should always be asking: Can they do better? Can they look after particularlythe more vulnerable in their community better? Can they do a better job with their localenvironment?
So, in the Council elections, were looking to really grow our number of Green councillors acrossEngland and Wales.
And then weve got the assembly elections in Wales and in London. And these are the chancewhere we can significantly grow our representation, win our first assembly members in Wales inwhat are fair proportional elections, in which people can be sure that their vote counts. If youvote for what you believe in, you can get it.
And of course, our sister party up in Scotland is looking forward with real confidence andenthusiasm to the Scottish Parliament elections there.
What we want, one of the things we need to be getting out of 20xx, is the same kind ofelections, fair proportional elections all around the county, particularly to Westminster and ofcourse getting rid of our un-elected House of Lords.
It was in 1918 when women got the vote. That was the last time we saw significant reform inthe Westminster Parliament.
Now, it really is time for us to think again, look again, plan again, and get real change in ourdemocracy. To get to a situation where people know that their vote counts, they dont have tomake complicated calculations about what other people are going to vote, they can simplyvote for what they want and get it.
Thats what I would urge everyone to make a resolution for 20xx. To do your bit towardselectoral reform. It is, after all, our human right to have a fair democracy that reflects ourpolitical will. And of course, in 20xx, were also going to have to be defending our human rights.Human Rights Act is under attack from our government and we need to stand up and defendit.
So a new year, new possibilities. Weve got a government that doesnt have a mandate for thehideous austerity that its imposing, for the disastrous environmental policies, for its threatsto our human rights.
This government only won the support of 24% of eligible voters. Thats no kind of mandate.
Lets pledge in 20xx to ensure that we make real progress toward the real change we need, apolitical system that works for the common good, not just for the few of the richest and apolitical system that delivers a society where were living within our environmental limits.
And after all, at the end of the day, thats not politics, its physics. We have to do it. We have tohave real change in Britain.
