关于春节的英语演讲稿（精选33篇）
It is easy to describe success in terms of money, fame and reputation. But I believe that success is not external. I believe that success comes from within. My definition of success is to be true to yourself, and be true to others. That means, that you must cherish your personal ideal even in the face of adversity. I also believe that success is not discriminatory. Success is not restricted to such a class of people, in fact, it may be achieved by any person irrespective of his race, creed, gender and economic background. A good example of success is that of Beethoven. He is one of the world's most famous composers, yet he was deaf. He could not hear the majestic pieces of music that he created. Yet, in the face of this adversity, he was able to maintain his ideals--that of composing music.
To exemplify what success means to me, I pose a question to all of you. What brings us together here today? I believe that it is the beauty of the spoken word. The effect of pause and the sound of rhetoric are unique to the spoken word. I believe the beauty of the spoken word is even stronger for those who have difficulty in expressing themselves.
These people are reclusive and had their emotions hidden within them. I once went to Australia and I saw two pictures, Once was drawn by a normal child, the other was drawn by a child with social inhibitions. The picture drawn by the normal child was simple and plain. The other was life-like, full of details and imagination. What this shows is that these are ideas, emotions and feelings that are locked internally in thesechildren.
My ideal is to be the key, spreading the beauty of the spoken words to these children. These children have been neglected, but I feel that I can and should help these children to find themselves and be able to express themselves.
I realize that this is a difficult task, and there are many obstacles on the way. But I believe in my ideals and I will stick to them--even in the face of adversity. We should never have a premature abortion of ideals--let the child, let our ideals, stand the challenge. For a life without ideals is not living.
Thank you!
译文:成功之我见
用金钱、名誉和声望来描述成功，这很简单。但我相信成功不是外在的，我相信成功来源于自身。我对成功的定义是对已诚实，待人真诚。这就意味着即使面临困境厄运，你都必须坚守自己的理想。我同样相信成功没有偏见，成功不属于某一类人，事实上，不论种族、宗教信仰、性别和经济背景，任何人都能够获得。贝多芬的成功就是个很好的例子。他是世界上最著名的作曲家之一，而他却双耳失聪。他无法听到自己创作出的美妙乐章。然而，身
处如此逆境，他仍然能够坚持自己的理想——作曲。
为了举例说明我对成功的理解，我想给在座的诸位提一个问题。是什么让我们大家今天在此相会?我想是语言世界的美丽让我们走到了一起。停顿的效果和修辞之声是话语世界所独一无二的。我相信那些说话表达困难的人们对话语世界中的美丽体会得更为深刻。这些人都隐遁世间，把自己的感情深藏于心。我曾经去过澳大利亚，在那里看到了两幅画。一幅是正常儿童画的，另一幅是一个社会生活受限制的孩子画的。正常的孩子画的画简单、朴素，
而另一幅却贴近现实生活，充满了细节和想象。这表明这些孩子的思想、情绪和感受都封闭在他们的内心深处。
我的理想是成为向这些孩子传播话语世界美好的钥匙。这些孩子曾被我们忽视，但我觉得我能够也应该帮助他们发现和认识自己，并且能够表达自己的想法。
我知道这是个艰巨的任务，实现起来会遇到许多困难和障碍。但我笃信自己的理想，并将坚守下去——即使逆境重重。我们千万不能对一个理想作出不成熟的弃绝决定——让这些孩子，让我们的理想经受挑战。因为，没有理想的生活是没有生气的。
谢谢!
A survey about smokers in a middle school tells that although 90% of all students never smoke, 3% of them often smoke and 7% sometimes do. In other words, 10% of the students smoke. That’s terrible.
As we know, smoking is harmful to our health. Every year, thousands of people lose their lives because of it. Smoking not only does harm to your health, but also wastes money. Because, a fire may be caused by cigarette ends. It’s a pity to learn that one ends in death by smoking.
In all, smoking is so dangerous that we should keep away from it.
"Children over 15 should be allowed to make decisions about their lives without the interference of their parents or teachers. Society should accept that children mature at a younger age and should adjust the law accordingly."
The fact that we are not able to determine the exact moment at which maturity is realized due to the gradual changing nature of the growing process does not prevent us from establishing a practicable criterion by using the concept of a legal age, and placing on it an excessive amount of reliance as if it were a creed.Objectively, since the interpretation of maturity merely bears a local, temporary meaning (e. g. , it is understood distinctly in different cultures), not to mention the diversity of particular individuals, clearly an age criterion is definable only in the sense of statistics, yielding an average result of which the legislation should be adjusted to. However, no evidence indicates the invariance of the statistical result under the vicissitudes of the times.
Persisting in an a priori assumption may not be as highly laudable and dependable as believing in an empirical conclusion.While, both facts and analyses, verifying uniformly the time-dependency of the statistical mature age, suggests the shift to a younger age of children‘s maturity.
In reality, phenomena serving as foundations of the above statement are enormous, such as the manifest superiority of the young in knowledge structure and quantity to their elder generation for a corresponding age, their highly developed intelligence and advanced ability in comprehension and their sophisticated behavior in schools and their communities. Neither could all related evidence be listed, nor should it be ignored. Even with a phcnomenological attitude, one is bound to perceive the indispensability of a change to the old rule to meet the requirement of the new situation.
Analyses yield an identical verdict. A brief investigation of new situation.
Analyses yield an identical verdict. A brief investigation of the environment in which the new generation has been brought up is sufficient to justify all the observed phenomena. Physiologically, unimaginable revolutions in food supply and nutritional structure took place globally after the 2nd World War, which,together with other developments concerning living conditions,guarantee the necessary material bases. Psychologically, the young, confronted with a world of information and education,are entitled to nearly the same rights and freedom as the adults in front of the television or other mass media. They know everything. They understand everything.
The determination of the mature age is based on scientific principles rather than on doctrines. If the young, indeed, possess judgments by no means inferior to that of the generally acknowledged adults, others should treat them as adults, allowing them to make decisions independently. Moreover, there is no difficulty in the law, which is not the truth of the universe, but a sheer compromise of social forces, and have undergone innumerable historical modifications and revolutions with a potential
transformation today.
Though the precise new legal mature age is only attainable through statistics, the obvious tendency implies an absolute modification. With an unknown date of realization, it is expected that teachers and parents should discard the traditional ideas and really treat the young equally when the time comes.
My Spring Festival Spring Festival with you, I am back to my hometown of henan RuNa, put a lot of all kinds of guns, a large paper gun, the flying ray, flying rockets, mine and so on.
One day, I took a 30 cm high, a large diameter 20 cm, white paper gun in the snow, its power is greater than the small hand grenades, I use the lighter lit the fire, and then I quickly ran into the house, 1, 2, 3, boom, as if the earth were to vibrate, I ran to see, have a big snow hole, larger than I had imagined. We also carried a throw of the mine into the water, a big splash soar when power is endless, blown fly up with all the ice surface, appear on the surface of the spectacular sights, a lot of black smoke from the water.
In the home for the holiday really happy, I can shot, can also lead a lot of boy scouts, I in the home of a lot of fun these days.
There are many inventions that have changed the world so much. Here is ashort introduction. For example, a digital camera was invented by Steve J.Sasson. It was invented in 1975. People use it to take photos. The telephone wasinvented in 1876. It was invented by Alexander Bell. It is used forcommunicating with each other. Telephone makes it easier to communicate when youare far away from each other. Radio was invented by Guglielmo Marconi. It wasinvented in 1895. When you are free, you can use it to listen to the news andmusic. It also makes our life more interesting.
There are more inventions that have changed the world. They are veryimportant for us.
chinese restaurants have played an important role in american history, as a matter of fact. the cuban missile crisis was resolved in a chinese restaurant called yenching palace in washington, d.c., which unfortunately is closed now, and about to be turned into walgreen's. and the house that john wilkes booth planned the assassination of abraham lincoln is actually also now a chinese restaurant called wok 'n roll, on h street in washington.
事实上，中国餐馆在美国历史上发挥了很重要的作用。古巴导弹危机是在华盛顿一家名叫“燕京馆”的中餐馆里解决的。很不幸，这家餐馆现在关门了，即将被改建成沃尔格林连锁药店。而约翰·威尔克斯·布斯刺杀林肯总统的那所房子现在也成了一家中餐馆，就是位于华盛顿的“锅和卷”。
and if you think about it, a lot of the foods that you think of or we think of or americans think of as chinese food are barely recognizable to chinese, for example: beef with broccoli, egg rolls, general tso's chicken, fortune cookies, chop suey, the take-out boxes.
如果你仔细想想，就会发现很多你们所认为或我们所认为，或是美国人所认为的中国食物，中国人并不认识。比如西兰花牛肉、蛋卷、左宗棠鸡、幸运饼干、杂碎、外卖盒子。
so, the interesting question is, how do you go from fortune cookies being something that is japanese to being something that is chinese? well, the short answer is, we locked up all the japanese during world war ii, including those that made fortune cookies, so that's the time when the chinese moved in, kind of saw a market opportunity and took over.
所以有趣的是，幸运饼干是怎么从日本的东西变成中国的东西的呢?简单地说，我们在二战时扣押了所以的日本人，包括那些做幸运饼干的。这时候，中国人来了，看到了商机，自然就据为己有了。
Before, I would be willing to celebrate the festival, especially the Spring Festival and the Mid Autumn Festival. However, this years Spring Festival is not the same as in previous years.
Before the new year, because of the severe snow disaster in the south, many uncles and aunts did not rest on the Spring Festival and insisted on their jobs. My father didnt go home for the Spring Festival during the Spring Festival. He insisted on the first line of coal mine production, for more coal and overtime work to support the coal in the south. Coal miners made their contributions to the production and life in the south. Although my father could not go home with us for the new year, I was very happy, and I was proud of him.
At eight p. m. thirty in the year, my mother and I sat on the couch to watch the Spring Festival. How wonderful the Spring Festival Gala is! Talk about the crosstalk, sing and sing in a moment, and dance in a moment. Its really busy! All of a sudden, mom asked me what I wanted in 20xx. I replied, "in 20xx, my wish is：study hard and make progress every day. I will make a careful and conscientious friend. I will become an excellent young pioneer.
Good morning.Ladies and gentlemen, it's my honor to be here today to give you this speech. My name is Coco. I'd like to talk about job satisfaction. I have divided my talk into three parts:firstly,the importance of job satisfaction; secondly,the factors of job satisfaction;finally,how to achieve job satisfaction.
Now, let's start with the first part: the importance of job satisfaction.
A job provides an individual with the necessary means to remain satisfied in almost every aspect of life such as leisure,health and social life.Several key factors are thought to be critical for an employee to achieve job satisfaction.
Let's turn to the second part: the factors of job satisfaction. A reasonable salary is of course the most important factor in job satisfaction.In many people's minds,an ideal job is first of all a well-paid one, which makes the employee feel that he is fairly rewarded for what he has done for the company.Another important element of job satisfaction is the nature of the job itself. Job satisfaction can never be achieved if the employee's education , skills and interests.Finally,job satisfaction is closely associated with being part of the decision-making process in the company as well as having opportunities for promotion.
Let's leave that there, now, let's come to the last part: how to achieve job satisfaction. for an individual employee,finding the right job and trying to stay positive might be the first step towards achieving job fulfillment and satisfaction.
I'll briefly summarize the main parts. Let me just run over the key points again. Firstly,the importance of job satisfaction;secondly,.the factors of job satisfaction;finally,how to achieve job satisfaction.
In conclusion, job satisfaction plays an important role in the company and individual.It is the key index to influence the company performance.So we should try our best to achieve it.
in our daily lives, we have many choices to make, such as what to eat for supper,what clothes to wear, or what to do on weekends. at certain times in our lives, we need to make even more critical choices, such as which school to attend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. yes, life is a matter of choice. seemimgly, it means a choice of tangible things. but in essence, it means choosing a way of life. life is to be lived, savored, and enjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.
hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the grave threat from the life-and-death disease--sars. yet, even during those dreadful times, some afflicted people remained optimistic. instead of wearing neutral white masks, some people turned to colouful ones, and thus display a happy mood. and some creative people dubbed sars to mean "smile and remain smiling." i was deeply touched by their optimisim, nearly forgetting that we're still in a battle. people who survive these kinds of circumstances, (at some point)decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the overwhelming odds.
laid-off workers, typically regarded as the victims of economic advancement, are subject to desperation that being unmeployed has brought on them. but, encouragingly, we have witnessed some of them striving hard to rebuild confidence toward life and discover new opportunities for demonstrating their values.
although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities, we do have the privilege to choose to live optimistcally,to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.
every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day. as for me, i choose to be cheerful.
日常生活中,我们会面临各种各样的选择,像是晚餐吃什么,穿什么或是如何度周末。而在人生中的特定阶段,我们需要做出更多关键性的抉择,例如教育,职业或者人生伴侣。生活就意味着一种选择。这种选择看似是对具体事物的判断,但归根究底,是一种生活方式的选择。任何无味的抱怨和虚度光阴只会带来乏味,生活的美需要细心品尝,用心体会。
如今回想起那段笼罩在sars阴影下的日子依然心有余悸。但即便在那样令人沮丧的日子里,备受折磨的人们也始终保持着乐观。为传递一种欢快的情绪,大家换上了色彩缤纷的口罩。而那些富有创造力的人则把sars解释为"笑口常开"。他们对待生活的乐观态度深深打动了我,几乎让我忘记我们还身处在没有硝烟的战场。其实,正是坚持不懈,坚忍不拔的精神引领人们走出了逆境。
被看做经济发展牺牲品的广大下岗职工在面对生存压力时,特别容易陷入绝望当中。但别人欣慰的是,我们看到越来越多的这个群体中的成员重建了对生活的信心,并重新立足于社会以实现自己的价值。
尽管容貌和天资都是上苍给予,而人生旅途中的坎坷与荆棘我们也无法预计,那就让我们热爱生命,拥有梦想,珍惜希望吧。
每日清晨梦醒,我们都被赋予了选择生活的权利。而我会让一切从愉快开始。
one day, god said to a priest: ‘come, and i want to take you to see the hell.” they entered a room where so many people were sitting around a cooking pot. they looked at it but no one wants to say or do anything. they felt not only hungry but also disappointed .everyone has a spoon. but the handle of the spoon were too long for the food to be sent into their mouths.
有一天，上帝的牧师说：'来吧，我要带你看地狱“他们进入一个房间里这么多人坐在周围的锅。。他们看着它，但没有人愿意说或做任何事情。他们认为不仅饥饿，但也感到失望。每个人都有一个勺子。但勺子的柄太长时间的食物到他们口中发出。
“come, now i want to take you to the heaven. ”god took the priest to the heaven and entered another room. this room was the same as the first one. there were so many people sitting around a cooking pot, and the handles of their spoon were as long as those of the first group of people. there was nothing different but the atmosphere. people here drank and ate, speaking and laughing. the priest felt puzzled and asked god. god answered with a smile. ”can’t you see? people in the second room here learnt to feed each other “ the priest suddenly saw the light.
“来吧，现在我要带你到天堂。 “上帝的神父到了天堂，进入另一个房间。这间屋子作为第一个相同。有这么多身边的人一个锅坐着，他们的勺子手柄一样的第一组的人长。没有什么不同，但气氛。这里的人喝酒，吃饭，说话和笑。神父感到不解地问上帝。上帝微笑着回答。 “你没看见?在第二个房间里学会了喂对方“牧师人们突然看到了光明。
this story tells us that we should learn to share and give, and develop the good habit of loving and helping one another. the niggards who we saw in the hell would rather make themselves hungry than share with others.
这个故事告诉我们，我们应该学会分享，给予，爱和发展互相帮助的好习惯。我们在地狱看到了，那些人宁愿让自己比其他人分享饿了。
as a british poet said:” taken away love, our earth would be a grave. sharing is an idea state, a wisdom and distillation. sharing love, happiness and sadness is all that we need. there are so many people who don’t want to share with others .whatever they do they will think about themselves first. these people can never understand the real meaning of sharing. people are always imagining that they can live a good life in the heaven .because of imagination, we always feel we are far away from the heaven .in fact, the heaven is not far away from us .
作为英国诗人说：“采取了爱，我们的地球将会是一个严重。分享是一种思想状态，智慧和升华。分享爱，快乐和悲伤是所有我们需要的。有这么多的人谁不想与别人分享。无论他们这么做，他们将第一次对自己的看法。这些人永远无法理解共享的真正意义。人们总是想象他们可以住在天堂的生活，因为一个良好的想象力。，我们总是觉得我们远离天堂。事实上，天堂离我们并不遥远。
A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sathim down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "

哥哥的心愿 圣诞节时，保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车。圣诞节当天，保罗离开办公室时，一个男孩绕着那辆闪 闪发亮的新车，十分赞叹地问：
"先生，这是你的车?"
保罗点点头："这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。"男孩满脸惊讶，支支吾吾地说："你是说这 是你哥送的礼物，没花你一分钱?天哪，我真希望也能……"
保罗当然知道男孩他真想希望什么。他希望能有一个象那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话 却完全出乎了保罗的意料。
"我希望自己能成为送车给弟弟的哥哥。"男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩，冲口而出地说："你要不要坐我的车去兜风?"
"哦，当然好了，我太想坐了!"
车开了一小段路后，那孩子转过头来，眼睛闪闪发亮，对我说："先生，你能不能把车子开到 我家门前?"
保罗微笑，他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀，让大家知道他坐了一部大轿车 回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。"你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前?"男孩要求道。
男孩跑上了阶梯，过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了，但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来把他跛脚的弟弟 带出来了，将他安置在第一个台阶上，紧紧地抱着他，指着那辆新车。
只听那男孩告诉弟弟："你看，这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是保罗他哥哥送给 他的哦!将来我也会送给你一辆像这样的车，到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时，挂窗 口上的漂亮饰品了，就象我告诉过你的那样。"
保罗走下车子，把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子，坐在弟弟的 身旁。就这样他们三人开始一次令人难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜，保罗才真正体会主耶稣所说的"施比受更有福"的道理。
They say that when you die your life flashes before your eyes。 Will you seeany-thing other than a small black box in the corner of your room? What have youchanged in th world? What will you leave behind?
据说人在临死前，自我的一生会从眼前闪过。除了房间角落里的一个黑色小盒子，你还能看到些什么呢?在这个世界上你改变了些什么?你又将留下些什么呢?
Or maybe you are surrounded by people all the time。duanwenw。 You are thecenter of attention and everybody loves you。 You go out with your friends，partying and having fun， but what about in the morning? You wake up with asevere headache and an upset stomach。 What about your death? Do you think it wastime to go?
或许你一向被众人所簇拥。你是众人的焦点，所有人都深爱着你。你跟朋友一齐外出参加聚会、玩乐，但到了早晨又是怎样的情形呢?你醒来时会觉得头疼得厉害，会感到胃里很难受。你会想到死亡吗?你会不会觉得自我难受得快要死掉了?
You could be the exact opposite。 You may want pany， but for whatever reasonnot have it。 Maybe you’re scared or shy。 You go home， lock yourself in yourroom， and sink into anger。
当然情景也可能正好相反。你期望有人作伴，但可能由于种.种原因，没有人陪在你身边。这可能是因为你很胆怯或是害羞。回到家里之后，你总是把自我锁在屋子里，一个人生闷气。
Are you an adventurer? Will your love of adventure lead to your end? Youcan never be quite sure when your heart and spirit will be broken。 All youradventures will one day be forgotten and it will all have been for nothing。
你喜欢冒险吗?你会一辈子酷爱冒险吗?你可能永远都无法确定自我会在什么时候感受到心灵的疲惫。但终有一天，你会忘掉所有的冒险经历，过去的一切都将荡然无存。
Or maybe you played it safe your entire life。 You outlived all thoseothers， but what for? You never did anything great; you never made anything ofyourself。 You’re alone in all your security， but that worth it? You just took upspace on th earth。
或许你安稳地度过了自我的一生。你比其他人更长寿，但那又有什么意义呢?你从未有过惊人之举;你从未完全按照自我的意愿行事。你孤独地、安稳地活着，但这样过一生值得吗?你仅仅只是以往存活于地球上而已。
They say that when you die， your life flashes before your eyes。 What willyou see?
据说人在临死前，自我的一生会从眼前闪过。你期望那时候自我能看到些什么呢?
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen :
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 “I love English”.
English is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. More and more people has begun to learn English now .
As for me, I love English soon when I began to learn it. I find the great beauty of English language from English songs, English stories and English book. Learning English makes me confident and give me a new colorful world.
I love English. I hope I can travel around the world one day. I want to go to America, I also want to go to London. If I can ride my bike in New York University, how happy I’ll be!
I love English. I hope I can make friends with many people from different countries. I will introduce China to them proudly in English, Such as Great Wall and the Summer Palace.
I know Rome was not built in a day. I believe that I can speak English very well one day if I can study hard. At that time, my dream will come ture.
That’s all. Thanks for your listening!
Thank you!
The past two days are special for the 7.23 million examinees and their parents. It is the National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao in Chinese). Based on the current education system in China, the result of the two day exam greatly impacts the future of any students in China. The score will decide whether you can receive college education. For most places in China, only half of the students are eligible for college education (only 3.40 million will be admitted to colleges in 2019) and the rest has to start work after high-school. In cities like Beijing and Shanghai, students are lucky enough to have a much higher ratio (more than 70%) to enter colleges.
Tsinghua, Peking University, Fudan University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University are among the first class in China. But only very few people can go there.
To enter a college or not, or to enter a good college or not directly impact the first offer they can get after graduate and impact their career. So it is the most critical time for students.
Isaac recorded the "No Honking During Gaokao" sign. I saw the same sign near Henan Rd. and Zhaojiabang Rd.. Not only honking is not allowed. All construction sites around schools were ordered to work in limited time in the recent 10 days. Thousands of policemen are working around schools to make sure there is no noise or traffic jam during the two important days. Taxi drivers even offer free ride to transport examinees and their family.
My name is Jie Lidi. Today, my topic is: “Confidence”. As we all know, failure is the mother of success. But What I want to say is that success is the child of confidence. Without confidence, things can become negative and uncomfortable. I remember, during an English class, I wanted to make a sentence using the word "listen". I should have said: "I listen to the Voice of America" but I was too nervous and said "I listen to the Noise of America". Everybody in the class laughed. Since then I wanted to train myself to be confident. Now, confidence makes me brave and courageous. Take this speech for example. I wanted to enter this competition, but I would feel very embarrassed if I made mistakes. Just then, I thought about my dream. My dream is to become a scientist when I grow up. If I am not confident, how can I overcome difficulties I face? If I am not confident, how can I succeed in developing myself in the future? I will do it! Today, I am making a speech in public and I feel proud and confident!
I am sure, in the future, with confidence, I will go forward-always forward. Confidence will make my dreams come true!
Thank you!
亲爱的先生/女士，
我问是你学校的教学方法和你是好学生在这方面知名。
我一直在北京任教的中学三年英语。我永远不会厌倦了我的工作或我的学生。我喜欢在有趣的经验教训作出了很多更有趣，使枯燥和教训少一些。所以我一直对如何改善我的教学激烈，通过阅读努南，哈珀和威多森和参加外国教师讲课。
我明白，良好的英语老师就是一个很好的演讲者和作家。这就是为什么我做了很多工作，以提高我的耳朵和舌头和手所有的时间。我从来没有一天不通过后，英国广播公司说。我说在大多数情况下日常英语。到了晚上，当我喜欢我的退休和隐私，我的座位在自己的电脑前，开始写我的日记。我从来没有用完的东西或条件，但无可否认，有时短的时间。这非常有趣使用电脑写作，这必将冲击肖和莎士比亚。
我会阅读有关英语教学，或英语教学重要的书籍，正与所有重要的思想和人的朋友。当然，我会写一些论文，被公布与否。这将是我的荣幸能在老师的研究项目1宗。我知道这是可能的。
你的诚然，
简奥斯汀
New Year's Day, we have to wear new clothes, every family is beaming.
At dawn, Xiao Liang and Xiao Hong immediately put on their new clothes, they took firecrackers and bamboo poles to set off firecrackers outside. Dad took two big red lanterns to hang outside. After the lantern was hung up, dad put a piece of "fu" on the door.
Xiao Liang put firecrackers on the bamboo pole, asked dad to take a lighter to point firecrackers. Xiao Liang and Xiao Hong are ready to set off firecrackers. Xiao Liang is holding firecrackers on a bamboo pole in his left hand and a lighter in his right hand. Small bright light lighter ignite, put toward the line of firecracker. A little brighter. Just pull yourself back.
When they listen, why don't they ring? A look at the original has not lit ah! Little Red said: "Elder brother you take the bamboo pole, I will point." Xiao Hong lit the firecracker and ran away. After that, Xiao Hong covered her ears with her hands and hid behind her brother. Firecrackers immediately sounded the sound of "crackling". Xiao Liang is running around, and her sister Xiao Hong is running around with her brother xiao Liang. Mother brought a small box, said to them: "This is your big red envelope, come and get it!"
Xiao Hong said to her brother Xiao Liang, "This is the happiest moment for our family!"
Thank you!
Thank you Oxford, and thank you Oxford Union.
It is truly an honor and a privilege to be here todayand that you have afforded me this opportunity tospeak to you.
I must confess, I am somewhat mystified as to whyyou are here. Because there won't be any singing,any hip-shaking. What so ever.
So, how do I, a girl from Barranquilla, Colombia come to occupy the same stage as Newton andChurchill. Lord knows I'm no Mother Teresa, but here I am, nonetheless.
I realize that one point of view from which I can depart is that of an artist. After all, it is who Iam. We artists depend on our imaginations.
When I first learned I was coming, I thought about the past and I imagined the future. Fromyour minds, ideas will sprout that will give new shape to the world. I cannot help but fast-forward to what the world will be like in 50 years. What will be happening? Who will we be?What challenges can we overcome? How will we live?

Hello,everybody !it is my great honor to be here to share my idea with y,I will talk something about DREAM——A word that has changed the world.
“What do you think is the word that has really changed our world ”
When I was asked about this question for the first time ,without thinkingit too much ,a word flash into my mind ——DREAM ,le more or lessdream about different things ,to be a teacher ,a doctor ,a scientist ,abusinessman and so on these people who have dreams should be respected,because Dreams make the world go around grow great by our bigmen are great dreamers in their yone has a dream ,and everythingstarts as one’s daydream.
Martin Luther king had a desired for a future where blacks andwhites would coexist harmoniously as speaking the way he did,heeducated,he inspired,he informed not just the people there,but people throughoutAmerica and unborn pushed forward the pace of American blacksociety towards the racial equality .
Thomas Edison had a dreamed of a lamp that could be operated byelectricity,began where he stood to put his dream into action,and despite morethan ten thousand failures,he stood by that dream until he made it a physicalreality!And today,his dream lights up the world at night.
Walt Disney had a ,in itself,wasn't unusual -- he was dreamed of making the first animated feature film,and of building anamusement park that parents could enjoy right along with their Disneyempowered his dream and today,Disneyland,Disney world and Disney theme parksattract around the world thrill millions of visitors each and every year.
John edy had a wanted to land a man on the moon and returnhim safely to earth so as to restore faith in the American way of edy empowered his dream and 8 years later Neil Armstrong stepped on theface of the moon landing certainly gave Americans new foundconfidence.
Dream --- A word that has changed the world Yes ,I would say so ,wouldn’tyou
Youth is a special life relay station ,the growth with the worry ,the lifefeeling become aware happily with the dream ,collected a unique youth melody inhere .
We as we decide and choose,so are our lives e end,forming our own destiny is what ambition is most importantly,You are the one you choose to be.
It is easy to waste our lives ,our days ,our minutes is easy to existthan living hold fast to your dreams,For if dreams die,life is abroken-winged bird,That cannot fast to your dreams,For when dreamsgo,life is a barren field,Frozen with snow.
a man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put hishead out the window to check. as he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.
he looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman lookingdown.
"is this yours?" he asked.
she said, "yes, could you bring it up?" and the man agreed.
on arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. asshe was very attractive he agreed. shortly afterwards she said, "i'm about tohave dinner. there's plenty. would you like to join me?"
he readily accepted her offer and both enjoyed a lovely meal. as theevening was drawing to a close the lady said, "i've had a marvelous evening.would you like to stay the night?"
the man hesitated then said, "do you act like this with every man youmeet?"
"no," she replied, "only those who catch my eye."
创新，一个我们耳熟能详的词。尤其是这样一个飞速发展的时代，这个词时时撞击我们的耳膜。但是，创新，其丰富的内涵，却是许多人尽其一生孜孜以求，也未必可以充分了解的。
朋友，你认识创新吗?
创新其实是一个梦想。
中国古代曾有一个人，背负纸做的翅膀，义无反顾地纵身跳下高高的山崖，希冀像鸟儿一样飞翔在晴空。在粉身碎骨跳下的一瞬间，他是否隐约看到了碧空中可以自由翱翔的飞机?
英国有一位作家，在他一生的作品中，尽情幻想，将热气球、潜水艇、电报提前了几十、甚至几百年带入我们的生活。在凡尔纳下笔的一刹那，他是否已经预先看到了遥远的未来?
梦想标示着丰富的想象力，想象力为创新提供源泉。创新从梦想中蜕变，以梦想为根，受梦想浇灌。像永不失天真的爱因斯坦吹出的肥皂泡，在空冥的大地上，不断破灭又不断上升。
创新需要怀疑与批判。
怀疑是创新的萌芽，批判是创新的成长。在怀疑中发现错误，在批判中改正错误，创新才能完成。然而怀疑的精神、批判的勇气，人们为之付出了太多太多。
1543年的春天，人们震惊了，一个人，他居然宣称地球是围绕太阳转的。上帝啊!让这个人不得好死。人们肆意地嘲笑，诅咒。
终于，诅咒灵验了，六十七年后的一天，在美丽的罗马鲜花广场，那个虔诚地捍卫并发展了太阳中心学说的布鲁诺被高高地绑在十字架上。一个火把投向他，烧焦的肉体发出一阵阵异味。死亡的气息在游荡。突然，一个声音从那扭曲的身躯中迸发出来：“火并不能把我征服，未来的世界会了解我，知道我的价值。”
是的，火并没有征服他，那愤怒的火焰，那毁灭的火焰，只能把挂在伪真理脸上的面具烧焦。弥漫在鲜花广场的灰烬不愿散去，它要告诉我们：创新，踏着用生命证明了的怀疑与批判，终究会打破传统的桎梏，得到永生。
创新要求深刻。
我们都知道，阿基米德在洗澡时发现了浮力定律，成就了科学史上的一段美谈。可是我们是否还记得曹冲称象的故事?那可爱的孩子也不自觉地运用着浮力定律。然而，后者只被当成一个睡前故事流传于孩子们的枕边，前者却孕育了物理学的一个基本原理。
有时候，创新并不是很难，说不准什么时候，一个思想的火花闪过，创新就来到眼前。可火花不能长久，创新却要求永恒。于是创新要求深刻的思考，追求本质的东西，要求我们更进一步地去挖掘它具有的创新意识。
然而挖掘不是最难，最难的是那意识的产生。你一定游过泳，一定玩过水，你一定感受到过水的压力，但你能说，你可以造出浮力定律吗?甚至你敢说，会想到用水来称象吗?恐怕不敢吧?生活中许多事情就是这样，在你经历时，就已触摸到创新的边缘了，然而我们却没有那个观念，有意识地将创新完成。
作为大学生，我们的知识仍然贫乏，也许我们不能有多少伟大的具体的创新。但是我们一定要培养我们的创新意识。这意识中包含着许多内容。首先，我们要学会梦想，学会不为现实堵塞我们的天真，不时地做一做童年的梦，想一想飞上火星的浪漫，想一想生活于外太空的美妙。不要只盯着别墅、跑车，做物质的奴隶。然后，让我们学会怀疑与批判。不要吓倒在老师那威严的面孔下，不要认为凡是印成了铅字的东西就是真理。昆德拉说：“人类一思考，上帝就发笑。”相信自己，坚持怀疑，敢于批判，不惧权威，方显英雄本色。再次，让我们深沉一下，稳重一点，不妨压抑一下青春的律动，多思考一些东西，多研究一些学问，不要有了一个奇特的创意，一个未闻的发现就妄自高兴，而到实践时却束手无策。最后也是最重要的，就是要培养自己的创新意识，尤其是对专业中新事物的敏感度。伦琴因为一张被感光了的底片，意识到X射线的存在，最终获得第一届诺贝尔奖，牛顿因为一只落下的苹果而发现万有引力。他们对于专业的敏锐，是我们在学习中真正要掌握到手的知识。
认识创新。“认”是一个认知，明白其表象的过程;而“识”是一个理解，探索其本质含义的过程。认识创新，我们不仅仅要“认”，更重要的是要“识”。
Innovation, one we are familiar with the word .In particular, this is an era of
rapid development , the word always hit our eardrums . However , innovation and its rich connotation, is that many people do their assiduous life , it may not be able tofully understand.Friend , do you know innovation ?
Innovation is actually a dream.
Ancient China had a man ,burdened wings made of paper , hesitate to jump as high cliff , hoping to fly like a bird in the clear sky . Jumped in pieces at the moment whether
he could vaguely see the blue sky in the freedom of flying airplanes?
Britain has a writer, works in his lifetime , enjoy fantasy, the hot air balloon , submarine ,telegraph ahead of dozens , or even hundreds of years into our lives.
Verne pen down at the moment ,whether he had previously seen the distant future ? Dreams marked rich imagination , imagination as a source of innovation . Innovative transformation from dream to dream is the root, watered by the dream . Einstein never lost innocence like blowing soap bubbles in the air offerings of the earth,constantly shattered and constantly rising .
Innovation requires suspicion and criticism .Suspected to be the seeds of innovation , critical innovation growth. Errors found in doubt , correct the error in the criticism , innovation to complete.
However, skepticism , criticism of courage, people pay the price too much.The spring of 1543 , people shocked , a person, he actually claimed that the earth revolves around the sun .
God, ah ! Let this person Budehaosi . People wanton laugh ,curse.Finally ,the curse come true , the day after 1978 , in the beautiful Rome Campo de 'Fiori, the religiously defended and developed the center of the sun is high in the doctrine of Bruno tied to the cross. A torch toward him, and sent waves smell of burnt flesh . The smell of death in the wandering . Suddenly, a voice from that distorted body burst out : "Fire does not make me conquer the future of the world will know me , and know my worth ."
Yes, the fights did not conquer
him, and that the flames of anger , and that the destruction of the flame , only
to hang in the pseudo- truth face mask burning. Filled in the
Campo de 'Fiori reluctant to disperse the ashes , it has to tell us: innovation
, marching with his life proved suspicion and criticism , will eventually break
the traditional shackles and have eternal life.
Innovation requires profound .
We all know that in the bath
Archimedes discovered the law of buoyancy , the achievements of science in the
history of a brother's wife. But we still
remember Cao Chong said the elephant story ? Lovely children do not consciously use the law of
buoyancy . However, the latter only as a
bedtime story being circulated in the children's pillow , the former has given
birth to one of the basic principles of physics .
Sometimes, innovation is not
difficult , can not say what time the spark of an idea flashed , innovation came
to hand. Sparks can not last long , but
innovation requires eternity. So innovation requires deep
thinking , the pursuit of the essence of things, require us to dig further it
has a sense of innovation .
However, mining is not the most difficult , the most difficult is that conscious generation. You must swam , played some water, you will feel the pressure over the water , but you can say that you can create buoyancy do ? Even if you say , think of water as it came to be called ? I'm afraid not , right ? Is so many things in life , in your experiences, had to touch the edge of innovation , yet we do not have that concept , consciously innovative complete.
As college students, our knowledge is still poor , maybe we can not have a great number of specific innovations.
But we must nurture our sense of innovation. It contains many elements of consciousness .
First, we must learn to dream , learn not reality clogging our innocence, from time to time to make a childhood dream to do , think about Mars fly romantic , think about the beauty of living in outer space . Do not just stare at the villa , sports car, doing physical slaves. Then, let us learn to doubtand criticism . Do not intimidated by the teacher that majestic face , do not think that all printed in lead type stuff is the truth. Kundera said: " a thinking human beings , God laughs ." Believe in yourself, doubts persist , the courage to criticize , fear of authority , the hero character . Again,let us look deep , steady light, it may look youthful rhythm depressed ,thinking something more to study some knowledge , do not have a strange idea, anunheard of discovery to pretend happy, but to practice Shique helpless. Finally, and most important , is to develop their own sense of innovation, especially for professionals in the sensitivity of new things . Roentgen because one is a photographic negatives and realized the existence of X-rays , and ultimately won the first Nobel Prize , Newton as a falling apple and discovered gravity . They professional
acumen is that we really want to master in learning hand knowledge.Recognizing innovation . "Recognize " is a perception,understand the process of representation ; and " knowledge" is an understandingof the process of exploring its essential meaning . Recognizing innovation, we not only want to"recognize ", but it is important to " know ."
Listening is also a learning.
Listen, is a kind of wisdom; is a kind of open-minded; is a kind of elegant. Learn to listen, then learn the way of life, they learn to laugh at everything. Listen, you will get no money for this.
Listen to the flowers
Flowers, lost moisture and lose their fragrance and sense of the city, little macular watery stains leave traces, trace residual red record the bloom is pride. Unfortunately, it has no vitality, it does not stay in the branches. Wind blow. It may fall down.
You listen to, in the flower of the moment, how it sounded a heavy sigh, perhaps in lamenting the relentless years, time in a hurry. A bachelors complaint to himself: not to cherish the short time.
Listen to the flowers, I see not the wind flying, like the mountain firmly seize the youth! Oh! The effects of time.
Listening to the water
Water, happily into the ocean, Ruoyu rock, it didnt flinch, indomitable, eventually flow into the sea, ending the difficult course.
Listen to the water into the sea, at the moment, its laughter. I go through untold hardships, finally successful smile; or laughing and pays off.
Listen to the water, I learned to insist on, work hard, do not give up. So, is the way of success.
Listen to the wind
The wind blowing, blowing the rich and the poor, high streets and back lanes, not for big money in, but also no mercy to the poor. It witnessed the war, witnessed the change of Dynasty, but it just blows over. Have a heart of stone.
Listen, in the twinkling of an eye it blows over all things, a far cry from the croon, as if in ridicule human ignorance, or for his relentless witness.
Listen to the wind, I learned to live through everything, dont do everything to be so important, they are not really so important. There is no need to learn to learn......
Learn to listen, you will learn how to behave. Listening is a kind of life to the highest level......
It’s beyond reproach that we will come across all kinds of difficulties andchallenges in our life time .Some will be subjected to frequent sadness .Somewill lose their way to move on .Thus,only when we equip ourselves with hope andcourage can we finally succeed in the uncertain future.
Forrest Gump showed so great courage in the movie that he touched me a lot. For one thing,no matter when and where Jenny got into trouble ,Forrest Gumpwould bring her out of it without thinking how dangerous the situation would be.Maybe we should all fell ashamed that we love ourselves more than we love love,but Forrest showed great courage in love .For another,Forrest gump risked hislife to save Bubba in the war.It’s courage that helped Forrest gain a series ofhonor after war .Forrest Gump is beautiful for his perseverance and touchesothers with his courage.
A person can’t do without courage in terms of love and friendship ,letalone life . A weak person may avoid the difficulties ,but a person with couragewill face up to it head-on. Therefore,let’equip ourselves with greatcourage.

我们一生中遇到各种困难和挑战是无可指责的，有些人会经常悲伤，有些人将失去前进的道路，只有当我们有希望和勇气时，我们才能在不确定的将来取得成功。
阿甘在电影中表现出如此大的勇气，他深深地打动了我。对于一件事，无论何时何地，詹妮陷入了麻烦，阿甘会带她出来不思考如何危险的情况会。也许我们都应该感到惭愧，我们爱自己比我们更爱的爱，但福雷斯特表现出了巨大的勇气的爱。另一方面，阿甘冒着生命危险去救Bubba在战争中，它的勇气使福雷斯特战争后获得一系列荣誉。阿甘是美丽的他的毅力和触动别人的勇气。
在爱情和友谊方面，一个人不能没有勇气，更不用说生活了。弱者可以逃避困难，但有勇气的人会勇敢地面对困难。因此，让我们以极大的勇气武装自己。
People away from home have come back from all sides to get together with their relatives. People who have been busy for a year have stopped to enjoy the results of their work. It is easy to put down the tension of the first semester of junior high school, and my mood is also very happy.
On the thirty, every family was hung with red lanterns and red China knot, paste the full of hopes and blessings of the antithetical couplet symbol New Year paintings, everywhere filled with joy. Remember the Spring Festival, not the rain or snow, sometimes the frozen people shrink and shrink their hands. This week, Gods smile, we can taste the warm warm day, relax in the sun, and even shows several niujin.
"The adult is looking forward to the field, the child is looking forward to the year". The words are not false. The new year is the most happy when a child! That year, my father bought me a lot of fireworks, my mother bought a new pair of basketball shoes for my uncle, sent a skateboard to me, grandma also secretly honestly gift money to me, the best new year still can enjoy the play. Show the nature of his childhood.
In this sound and laughter, time flies silently. "Five, four, three, two, one, zero! TV bell sound and put us into the new year. Suddenly, countless fireworks like a blossoming flowers bloom in the air a riot of colours, the sporadic streamer seemed to the city and village and all things for the baptism of the spring, also gives us a good omen! In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival holiday will be full, in retrospect, I have to sincerely lamented:! Really happy new year!
honourable judges and friends,
good morning! i am very glad to be here to share my college life with you .
two years ago, i came into this city of and started my college life , the most memorable journey of my life. i was just a shy and little girl that time. all the things seemed fresh to me: new faces, large library and physics lab etc. i breathed the air of college greedily, i was curious about everything.the class given by the teachers are excellent.they provide us with information not only from our textbook but from other sources as well.i actively involved in student union and varies of association. but soon i realized that i do not make full use of my spare time ,so i got a part-time job to help a junior student with math lessons besides,i also took part in activities concerning public welfare. we taught the kids there who could not afford school, i was deeply touched by their eagerness to learn, the precious experience with the poor kids made me aware of the responsibility on the shoulders of us--future teachers. the enrichment of experience taught me the significance of modesty,responsibility,tolerance,and perseverance.
and now i have been here two years. recalling to the two years, i think i have to talk about one thing--learning. learn how to study independently, learn how to get along with others, learn to love, learn to… oh, there are too much things we have to learn.
comparing with senior high school, college is a rather different place. there aren’t so many people to watch you and guide you how to do something any more, neither are there so many students who share with you one dream. in college, you must think and study yourself, so you have to learn and practice to control yourself.
another relationship in college is friendship. my roommates have lived two years with me. in these years, they forgive my faults, cry with me, laugh with me, play with me… they always stand with me and support me, i have learned a lot from them. i love them all and treasure the friendship with them.
in the next 2 years,i’ll try my best to and make great contributions to society! that’s my college life. i cherish all i have experienced in college. i love you, my college!
that’s all, thank you!
When Dorothy was a little girl, she wasfascinated by her goldfish. Her father explained to her that fish swim byquickly wagging their tails to propel themselves through the water. Withouthesitation, little Dorothy responded, "Yes, Daddy, and fish swim backwardsby wagging their heads."
当多萝西还是一个小女孩的时候，她被她的金鱼迷住了。她的父亲向她解释，鱼是通过快速摇尾推动自己在水中前进。毫无犹豫地，小多萝西回答道，“是的，爸爸，而且鱼会通过摇头来后退。”
In her mind, it was a fact as true as anyother. Fish swim backwards by wagging their heads. She believed it.
在她的心里，这是一个确切的事实。鱼通过摇头来后退。她坚信如此。
Our lives are full of fish swimmingbackwards. We make assumptions and faulty leaps of logic. We harbor bias. Weknow that we are right, and they are wrong. We fear the worst. We strive forunattainable perfection. We tell ourselves what we can and cannot do. In ourminds, fish swim by in reverse frantically wagging their heads and we don'teven notice them.
我们的生活中充满着倒游的鱼。我们制造假设和错误跳跃的逻辑。我们心怀偏见。我们知道我们是对的，而他们是错的。我们害怕最糟糕的。我们力求无法获得的完美。我们告诉自己什么是我们能做的和不能做的。在我们心里，鱼是通过往相反方向疯狂摇头来游泳的，而我们甚至不曾察觉过它们。
I'm going to tell you five facts aboutmyself. One fact is not true. One: I graduated from Harvard at 19 with anhonors degree in mathematics. Two: I currently run a construction company inOrlando. Three: I starred on a television sitcom. Four: I lost my sight to arare genetic eye disease. Five: I served as a law clerk to two US Supreme Courtjustices. Which fact is not true? Actually, they're all true. Yeah. They're alltrue.
我想告诉你们五件关于我的事实。其中有一件不是真的。第一：我19岁的时候以数学荣誉学士学位毕业于哈佛大学。第二：我现在在奥兰多经营着一家建筑公司。第三：我主演过一部电视情景剧。第四：我因为患上一种罕有的遗传性眼疾而失去了视力。第五：我曾经给两位美国最高法院的法官当过法律助手。哪一个不是真的呢?事实上，它们都是真的。是的，它们都是真的。
At this point, most people really only careabout the television show.
这时候，大部分人其实都只关心那部电视剧。
I know this from experience. OK, so theshow was NBC's "Saved by the Bell: The New Class." And I playedWeasel Wyzell, who was the sort of dorky, nerdy character on the show, whichmade it a very major acting challenge for me as a 13-year-old boy.
这是经验告诉我的。好吧，那部电视剧是NBC的“SavedbytheBell:TheNewClass."而我饰演了WeaselWyzell，一个在剧中带点笨拙书呆子性格的角色，对于13岁的我来说，这是一个很重大的演出挑战。
Now, did you struggle with number four, myblindness? Why is that? We make assumptions about so-called disabilities. As ablind man, I confront others' incorrect assumptions about my abilities everyday. My point today is not about my blindness, however. It's about my vision.Going blind taught me to live my life eyes wide open. It taught me to spotthose backwards-swimming fish that our minds create. Going blind cast them intofocus.
现在，你是否纠结于第四个事实，我的失明?为什么会这样呢?我们对所谓的残疾做出一些假设。作为盲人，我每天都面对别人对我能力的错误假设。然而，我今天的重点不在于我的失明。而是在于我的视野。失明教会我用开阔的眼界去生活。它教会我去发现那些倒游的鱼，我们内心创造出来的鱼。失明使它们变成了焦点。
What does it feel like to see? It'simmediate and passive. You open your eyes and there's the world. Seeing isbelieving. Sight is truth. Right? Well, that's what I thought.
看得见是怎么样的一种感觉?是即时并且被动的。你睁开双眼，世界就在你眼前。看见什么相信什么。眼见为实。对吧?好吧，我当初是这么想的。
Then, from age 12 to 25, my retinasprogressively deteriorated. My sight became an increasingly bizarre carnivalfunhouse hall of mirrors and illusions. The salesperson I was relieved to spotin a store was really a mannequin. Reaching down to wash my hands, I suddenlysaw it was a urinal I was touching, not a sink, when my fingers felt its trueshape.
接着，从12岁到15岁，我的视网膜逐渐衰弱。我的视像变成了愈加奇异的嘉年华游乐场里的哈哈镜。我在商店里好不容易发现的销售员实际上是一个人体模型。俯下身去洗手，当我的手指感受到它的真实形状，我意识到我去触摸的是小便池，而不是洗手池。
A friend described the photograph in my hand, and only then I could seethe image depicted. Objects appeared, morphed and disappeared in my reality. Itwas difficult and exhausting to see. I pieced together fragmented, transitoryimages, consciously analyzed the clues, searched for some logic in my crumblingkaleidoscope, until I saw nothing at all.
一位朋友向我描述我手中的照片，只有在那时候我才能明白图像描画了些什么。物体在我的现实中出现、变形和消失。看见成为了一件困难的使我筋疲力尽的事情。我把支离破碎的、片刻的图像拼接起来，凭感觉分析线索，在我破碎的万花筒中寻找符合逻辑的对应，直到我什么都看不见。
I learned that what we see is not universaltruth. It is not objective reality. What we see is a unique, personal, virtualreality that is masterfully constructed by our brain.
我认识到我们所看到的并不即是普遍真理。并不是客观现实。我们所看到的是独一无二的虚拟现实，它是由我们的大脑巧妙地构造出来的。
Let me explain with a bit of amateurneuroscience. Your visual cortex takes up about 30 percent of your brain.That's compared to approximately eight percent for touch and two to threepercent for hearing. Every second, your eyes can send your visual cortex as manyas two billion pieces of information. The rest of your body can send your brainonly an additional billion. So sight is one third of your brain by volume andcan claim about two thirds of your brain's processing resources. It's nosurprise then that the illusion of sight is so compelling. But make no mistakeabout it: sight is an illusion.
请让我以外行的身份解释一遍神经系统学。你的视觉皮层占据了你脑部的大概30%。相比于触觉的8%以及听觉的2-3%。每一秒钟，你的双眼能够向你的视觉皮层传达多达二十亿的信息片段。其余的身体部分加起来也仅能够传达另外的十亿。所以视觉占据了你脑部容量的三分之一并且占用了你脑部中三分之二的信息处理资源。因此意想得到的是视觉幻象是多么的令人信服。但是别误会了：我们所看到的只是一种幻象。
Here's where it gets interesting. To createthe experience of sight, your brain references your conceptual understanding ofthe world, other knowledge, your memories, opinions, emotions, mentalattention. All of these things and far more are linked in your brain to yoursight. These linkages work both ways, and usually occur subconsciously. So for example, what you see impacts how you feel, and the way you feel can literally change what you see.
这是事情变得有趣的地方。为了制造视觉经验，你的大脑参考了你对这个世界的概念性理解，其它知识、你的记忆、看法、情绪和心理关注。所有的这些东西和以及其它的都连结于你的大脑和视觉景象之间。这些连结是双向作用的，并且常常在潜意识中发生。举例子来说，你所看到的会影响到你的感觉，而你的感觉又能够直接改变你所看到的。
Numerous studies demonstrate this. If you are asked toestimate the walking speed of a man in a video, for example, your answer willbe different if you're told to think about cheetahs or turtles. A hill appearssteeper if you've just exercised, and a landmark appears farther away if you'rewearing a heavy backpack. We have arrived at a fundamental contradiction.
许多的研究证明了这一点。如果你被要求去估计视频中人物的行走速度，举例来说，在被告知去想着猎豹或者乌龟的情况下，你的答案将会不一样。如果你刚刚运动完，你会感觉山变陡峭了，如果你背着一个很重的背包，眼前的目的地看起来距离更远。我们在这里遇到了一种基本的矛盾。
What you see is a complex mental construction of your own making, but you experienceit passively as a direct representation of the world around you. You createyour own reality, and you believe it. I believed mine until it broke apart. Thedeterioration of my eyes shattered the illusion.
你肉眼所看到的东西是你自己创造的一种复杂的心智建造，但是你被动地经历着它让它作为你周遭世界的一种直接呈现。你创造了属于你自己的现实并且深信着它。我深信于我的现实直到它瓦解了。我双眼的衰退粉碎了这种幻象。
You see, sight is just one way we shape ourreality. We create our own realities in many other ways. Let's take fear asjust one example. Your fears distort your reality. Under the warped logic offear, anything is better than the uncertain. Fear fills the void at all costs,passing off what you dread for what you know, offering up the worst in place ofthe ambiguous, substituting assumption for reason. Psychologists have a greatterm for it: awfulizing.
你看，视觉只是我们认识世界的一种途径。我们可以通过许多其它的方式去创造属于我们自己的现实。让我们来举恐惧作为一个例子。你的恐惧扭曲了你的现实。在扭曲的恐惧逻辑影响下，任何事情都比未知要好。恐惧不惜一切代价填补空白，把你所惧怕的冒充成你所知道的，让最糟糕取代了不明确，使假设代替了原因。心理学家对此有一个很好的术语：往坏处想。
Right? Fear replaces the unknown with theawful. Now, fear is self-realizing. When you face the greatest need to lookoutside yourself and think critically, fear beats a retreat deep inside yourmind, shrinking and distorting your view, drowning your capacity for criticalthought with a flood of disruptive emotions. When you face a compellingopportunity to take action, fear lulls you into inaction, enticing you topassively watch its prophecies fulfill themselves.
对吧?恐惧把未知的替换成了可怕的。现在，恐惧在自我实现着。当你非常迫切的需要去客观看待自己并进行批判性思考的时候，恐惧在你的内心深处打起了退堂鼓，收缩并扭曲你的观点，以洪水般涌现的破坏性情绪淹没你批判思考的能力。当你面对一个极具吸引力的机会去采取行动时，恐惧误导你去无所作为，诱使你被动地看着它的预言一个个实现成真。
When I was diagnosed with my blindingdisease, I knew blindness would ruin my life. Blindness was a death sentencefor my independence. It was the end of achievement for me. Blindness meant Iwould live an unremarkable life, small and sad, and likely alone. I knew it.This was a fiction born of my fears, but I believed it. It was a lie, but itwas my reality, just like those backwards-swimming fish in little Dorothy'smind. If I had not confronted the reality of my fear, I would have lived it. Iam certain of that.
当我被诊出患有致盲眼疾时，我料到失明将会毁了我的生活。失明对我的独立能力判了死刑。它是我一生成就的终点。失明意味着我将度过平凡的一生，渺小且凄惨，极有可能孤独终老。我就知道会这样。这是我因为恐惧带来的胡编乱造，但我相信了。它是一个谎言，但它曾是我的现实。就像小多萝西内心那些倒游的鱼一样。如若我不曾面对过我内心恐惧创造出来的现实，我会就那样活着。我很确定。
So how do you live your life eyes wideopen? It is a learned discipline. It can be taught. It can be practiced. I willsummarize very briefly.
所以你们如何去以开阔的眼界生活呢?这是一个需要学习的学科。它能被传授。它能被练习。我简单地总结一下。
Hold yourself accountable for every moment,every thought, every detail. See beyond your fears. Recognize your assumptions.Harness your internal strength. Silence your internal critic. Correct yourmisconceptions about luck and about success. Accept your strengths and yourweaknesses, and understand the difference. Open your hearts to your bountifulblessings.
让自己学会负责，对每一时刻，每个想法，每个细节。超越你内心的恐惧。识别出你所作的假设。展现你内在的能力。消除你内心的批判。修正你对于运气和成功的错误概念。接受自己的长处和短处，并清楚认识它们之间的区别。打开你的心扉去迎接对你满满的祝福。
Your fears, your critics, your heroes, yourvillains -- they are your excuses, rationalizations, shortcuts, justifications,your surrender. They are fictions you perceive as reality. Choose to seethrough them. Choose to let them go. You are the creator of your reality. Withthat empowerment comes complete responsibility.
你的恐惧，你的批判，你的英雄，你的敌人——他们都是你的借口、合理化作用、捷径、辩护、屈服。它们是你错认为现实的小说。尝试选择看穿它们。尝试让它们远离自己。你是自我现实的创造者。伴随这种权利而来的是你需要负起全部的责任。
I chose to step out of fear's tunnel intoterrain uncharted and undefined. I chose to build there a blessed life. Farfrom alone, I share my beautiful life with Dorothy, my beautiful wife, with ourtriplets, whom we call the Tripskys, and with the latest addition to thefamily, sweet baby Clementine.
我选择走出恐惧的隧道，步入了未知的领域。我选择在那里构建幸福的人生。远离孤单，我分享我的美好生活，与多萝西，我美丽的妻子，与我们的三胞胎，我们称之为“Tripskys”，还有新添的家庭成员，可爱的宝贝克莱蒙蒂。
What do you fear? What lies do you tellyourself? How do you embellish your truth and write your own fictions? Whatreality are you creating for yourself?
你在害怕什么?你在欺骗自己什么?你是如何修饰自己的真相，编写自己的小说?你在为自己创造着怎么样的现实?
In your career and personal life, in yourrelationships, and in your heart and soul, your backwards-swimming fish do yougreat harm. They exact a toll in missed opportunities and unrealized potential,and they engender insecurity and distrust where you seek fulfillment andconnection. I urge you to search them out.
在你的职业生涯和个人生活中，在你的人际关系中，在你的内心和灵魂中，倒游的鱼给你带来巨大的伤害。它们使你为错失的机会以及尚未实现的潜能付出代价。它们在你寻求满足与联系时引起你的不安以及不信任。我呼吁大家把它们找出来。
Helen Keller said that the only thing worsethan being blind is having sight but no vision. For me, going blind was aprofound blessing, because blindness gave me vision. I hope you can see what Isee.
海伦·凯勒曾说过，唯一比失明更糟糕的是拥有视力，却没有远见。失明对我来说是一种深深的祝福，因为失明给予了我远见。我衷心希望你们也能看见我所看见的。
Thank you.(Applause)
谢谢。(掌声)
Bruno Giussani: Isaac, before you leave thestage, just a question. This is an audience of entrepreneurs, of doers, ofinnovators. You are a CEO of a company down in Florida, and many are probablywondering, how is it to be a blind CEO? What kind of specific challenges do youhave, and how do you overcome them?
布鲁诺·朱萨尼：艾萨克，在你离开之前，我想问一个问题。在座的各位都是创业者、实干家、创新者。你是佛罗里达一家公司的执行总裁，很多人大概都会好奇，身为一名失明的执行总裁究竟是怎么样的呢?这使你面临哪些具体的挑战，而你又是怎么克服它们的呢?
Isaac Lidsky: Well, the biggest challengebecame a blessing. I don't get visual feedback from people.
艾萨克·利德斯基：好吧，最大的挑战成了一种祝福。我看不到别人的反应。
BG: What's that noise there? IL: Yeah. So,for example, in my leadership team meetings, I don't see facial expressions orgestures. I've learned to solicit a lot more verbal feedback. I basically forcepeople to tell me what they think. And in this respect, it's become, like Isaid, a real blessing for me personally and for my company, because wecommunicate at a far deeper level, we avoid ambiguities, and most important, myteam knows that what they think truly matters.
布：有什么声音在哪里吗?艾：是的。比如说在我的领导团队的会议中，我无法看到别人的表情或者手势。我学会去征求更多的言语反馈。我基本都要求人们把他们的想法告诉我。正因如此，它成为了，如我所说，对我个人还有我公司的一种真正的祝福。因为我们获得了更深层次的沟通。我们避免了歧义，还有更重要的，我的团队清楚知道他们的想法是真的要紧的。
BG: Isaac, thank you for coming to TED. IL:Thank you, Bruno.
布：艾萨克，感谢你来到了TED。艾：谢谢你，布鲁诺。

Chinese New Year Celebration is the most important celebration of the year. Chinese people may celebrate the Chinese New Year in slightly different ways but their wishes are almost the same; they want their.
Chinese New Year Celebration usually lasts for 15 days. Celebratory activities include Chinese New Feast, firecrackers, giving lucky money to children, the New Year bell ringing and Chinese New Year Greetings. Most of Chinese people will stop the celebrating in their home on the 7th day of New Year because the national holiday usually ends around that day, however celebrations New Year.
Most Chinese students have difficulties in learning English. The difficulties vary so much from person to person that it is difficult to cite here in a few words. Some may have problems in reading. Others may have trouble in writing. I also had problems in English learning, but my difficulty seemed to lie in listening. For example, when tested for listening comprehension, I couldn't understand a single sentence, let alone a passage of medium level.
In order to overcome the difficulty in my English learning, I made great efforts to find the key to the problem. I consulted my teacher and found out that I merely didn't have enough time to practice listening. So I bought a tape recorder and listened to it at least two hours a day. In addition, I listened to "Special English" on VOA. I also went out of my way to speak to foreigners on the campus whenever we meet so that I could have the chance to listen to the native speakers. After half a year's hard work, I could get 70% of the questions correct in listening comprehension tests.
I own my success to my English teacher. It is him who tells me the correct way to learn English. It is him who always encourages me when I encounter difficulties and feel disappointed.
Dear teachers and fellow students,Everybody is good!
"Firecrackers in New Year's Eve, spring breeze into the toso. Find Tong Tong, always put the new peach in the old character ", this poem describes the scene of the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival, commonly known as the Chinese New Year, is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the most solemn traditional Festival of the Chinese nation, since the period of Yu Shun, has been more than 4000 years of history.
Spring Festival day is also the most lively day of the year, everywhere can be seen with fireworks chasing children; Strangers met will also look at each other smile each other a happy New Year; Streets and alleys are decorated with lights, couplets are posted on every door, and even every tree by the river is covered with red lanterns, as if the whole city is integrated into the happy atmosphere of the New Year.
At home, my grandmother and mother are busy in the kitchen preparing the dinner for New Year's Eve, while the men are responsible for hanging lanterns on every small tree in the yard. Wait until the dinner time, the whole family sit together, while eating the rich dinner on the table, while telling the fun of the past year, the younger generation will toast to the elders, send each other the most sincere New Year wishes. At the same time out of the window, the sound of smoke exploding bamboo rose and fell, standing on the balcony to see, a colorful spark across the dark night sky, is fleeting, is also continuous. Look far, the whole city is brightly lit, is the lamp world, the lamp ocean; Like fairies scattered flowers, like stars.
Once I often ask adults what is the flavor of the New Year, but now I think the interpretation of the flavor of the New Year is varied, but my favorite is the family reunion together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, streets decorated with lights, people laugh and smile, word of mouth happy New Year.
Thank you!
Good afternoon dear teachers. My name is Sun Lanxin. I’m from Class 4 Grade 6. Today I’m very happy to have a speech here. My topic is “My dream—to be a singer”.
Some people want to be writers. Some want to be teachers. Some want to be doctors. My dream is to be a singer in the future. I hope my songs will spread all over the country. I hope everyone will enjoy my songs.
I like singing. When I was 6, my mom took me to Ningbo Children’s Center to learn singing . Miss Xu, a very kind woman, taught me vocal. “1,2,3,4…” I deeply fell in love with singing. In the next few years, I also learned many singing skills from Mr Li and Miss Hu. I learned many beautiful songs like Zhuo Ma, Cinderella’s Dream, and so on.
Then I started to join all kinds of singing contest. I sang better and better. And I won a lot of honors. And also I performed in many places. I performed to all the students at school on Children’s Day. I performed on Cixi TV. I performed in the Great Hall of the People in Cixi. I’m proud I can sing beautiful songs.
Singing songs makes me happy, makes me feel confident. And also it makes my school life colourful. Some of my classmates admire me. Under my influence,they began to love songs and learn singing , too. Sometimes we sang and danced happily together.
I hope I can be a singer in the future. I will sing for the patients. To make them forget their pains. I will sing for the old . To make them not feel lonely. I will sing for the children, for the heroes, for the poor, for many many people. I hope my songs will make people feel happy. I hope I can be a famous singer like Song Zuying.
However, I know that I could not succeed without efforts. So I must study hard at school, learn singing skills more and practice more. I believe that I will make my dream come true one day with my own hands.
That all ,Thank you！

冬天是寒冷的。雪白的雪花铺满大地，到处银装素裹，世界是白色的。下雪时，人们要穿着厚厚的衣服，戴着围巾帽子，把自己严严实实地包裹住，看起来像一个个胖乎乎的大雪人。
冬天是好玩的。冬天，我们可以打雪仗，堆雪人。我们还可以去滑雪，听着风从耳边呼呼地吹过，感受到速度的乐趣，也可以痛痛快快的在雪地里打滚，摔上一跤也不会觉得疼。
冬天是香喷喷的。我们可以围在一起吃火锅，谈天说地。如果有朋友来了，我可以带他们去吃吃热乎乎的羊肉泡馍，也会带他们去夜市吃烧烤。
冬天是热闹的。过年时，大街小巷人群川流不息，处处挂着红彤彤的灯笼，贴着喜气的对联。白天，小朋友们可以放鞭炮，晚上，还可以欣赏到五颜六色的烟花，春节时，一家人团聚围在一起，欢欢乐乐，热热闹闹。
