演讲是一件十分有意义的事情。
Importance of Communication
Communication is an integral instinct of all living things.The most important bearings of communication are best understood when there is a lack of it.The following article discusses how important communication is and why it plays such a vital role in our daily lives.
There is more to communication than just talk and gesture.Listening,understanding and interpreting are as much integral to communication as words - verbal,written or gestured.Yes,even gestures in communication play a crucial role in conveying and interpreting the message!Similarly,how we communicate or express ourselves goes a great way towards determining how our expressions are quote Karl Popper,"It is impossible to speak in such a way that you cannot be misunderstood".Faulty or incomplete communication can completely mar the purpose of communicating and may result in damaging consequences.This is where understanding how important communication is and communicating the right way comes into everyone is equally endowed with the ability to effectively express himself and this is where the significance of communication skills can be truly the right way is equally important in every walk of like,be it in personal,professional or social ,lets take a look at some major areas where right communication or a lack of it can have serious implications.
i have a dream
i am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
but one hundred years later, the negro still is not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languished in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. and so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
in a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable rights" of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."
but we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. and so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
we have also come to this hallowed spot to remind america of the fierce urgency of now. this is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. now is the time to make justice a reality for all of god's children.
it would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. this sweltering summer of the negro's legitimate discontent will not pauntil there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning. and those who hope that the negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to busineas usual. and there will be neither rest nor tranquility in america until the negro is granted his citizenship rights. the whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
but there is something that i must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: in the proceof gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterneand hatred. we must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. we must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. and they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.
My teacher is very beautiful, a piece of melon seeds face with a pair ofwatery big eyes, a pointed nose below a cherry small mouth. When the teacherwill be on a comb her long wavy hair, behind like opened a large and beautifulflower, scattered down and becomes a shawl, this is my teacher li. Miss li likemother kindly at ordinary times, I like her very much.

On one occasion, the teacher give us homework dictation is family, becauseI don't have a dictation, hand in your homework on the second day, I have nohomework, also didn't tell the teacher. I know I'm wrong, but I don't have thecourage to admit your mistakes. The bell rang, the teacher came into theclassroom. My heart pounding incessantly, like a rabbit, I always low head,didn't look at the teacher. The teacher began to check my dictation, my heart isbeating more severe, the teacher call to: "KuiRenJie", I slowly walked to thefront of the teacher, is afraid of the teacher in the class criticized me, veryregret in my heart, if there's a rift in the classroom, I'll go into, hide. Imove to the front of the teacher step by step, the face rises very red,whispered: "I... I didn't write the teacher." Will I always thought the teachersternly criticized me, but the teacher did not do that, but rather patientlysaid to me: "hereafter have what matter all want to advance with the teacher toexplain, don't wait for the teacher found out again, so you will be veryembarrassing, reduce the credibility in front of the students." The teacher'swords and earnest, deeply printed in my heart. Every time I am determined tocomplete the teacher leave homework seriously, get rid of the bad habit.
My teacher is lighted up with flashes of holy in my heart, in my heartplanted the seeds of love.
我的老师非常美丽，一张瓜子脸上嵌着一双水汪汪的大眼睛，尖尖的鼻子下面一张樱桃小口。当老师将她那长长的卷发一梳上，后面就像开了一朵美丽的大花朵，一散下来就变成一件披肩，这就是我的李老师。李老师平时像妈妈一样和蔼可亲，我非常喜欢她。
我的老师非常喜欢我，一直以来，都让我当班里的大班长，我非常骄傲。当我遇到困难时，老师会伸出那只温柔的手，帮我解决难题，教我如何与同学们相处，如何解决班内的一些琐碎的小事，在老师的细心帮助下，我慢慢地长大了。
有一次，老师给我们留的作业是家庭听写，由于我没有听写，第二天交作业时，我就没有交作业，也没有告诉老师。我知道自己错了，但是我没有勇气去承认自己的错误。上课铃响了，老师走进了教室。我的心怦怦跳个不停，好像装了一只兔子，我一直低着头，不敢看老师。老师开始查听写了，我的心跳得就更厉害了，老师叫到：“隗仁杰”时，我慢慢地向老师跟前走去，害怕老师在全班批评我，心里非常后悔，如果教室里有一个地缝，我会钻进去，藏起来。我一步一步挪到老师面前，脸涨得通红，小声地说：“老师我…我没有写。”我总以为老师会严厉地批评我的，可是老师不但没有那样做，反而耐心地跟我说：“以后有什么事情都要提前跟老师说明原因，不要等老师查出来再说，那样你会很尴尬的，在同学们面前降低威信的。”老师的话语重心长，深深印在了我的心底。我决心每次认真地完成老师留的作业，改掉这个坏毛病。
我的老师在我心中闪耀着神圣的光芒，在我的心中播下了爱的种子。
It is cold and dry outside. The wind often blows strongly. The days areshorter and the nights are longer.
Many animals go to sleep. They will sleep for a long time till the springcomes.
People don’t like to go outside. They have to wear heavy coats, scarves andgloves. But children like to be outside. Because it often snows. There is snowaround.
There is ice on the ground. Children can throw snowballs, make thesnowmen.
Oh, look. What a surprise! Do you see? The river is frozen!
Here come the boys, there come the girls, they are skating in the riverhappily.
Oh! Winter comes. It is really an interesting season. It has so muchfun!
Human activity & the Earth
The quality of human life has improved greatly over the past few centuries, but Earth is being harmed more and more by human activity. As we develop our technology, we demand more from our planet. Eventually, this will harm people as well.
Our planet gives us everything we need, but natural resources are not endless. Strip mining devastates whole regions, leaving bare and useless ground. Deforestation removes old growth trees that can't be replaced. Too much fishing may harm fish populations to the point where they can't recover. We are too careless in taking what we want without giving anything back.
There are more people than ever, living longer that ever. So is it any surprise that many areas suffer from too much development? Anyone living in or near a city has experienced "urban sprawl". There is a new shopping area on every corner and new houses, townhouses and apartments everywhere. Traffic gets worse and worse because planners can't keep up with growth. Keeping up with human demand is hard enough. Environmental concerns come in last.
With growth comes pollution. Companies and communities dump waste into water. Landfills are full of trash. Emissions from factories pollute the air. Barrels of industrial waste and worse, radioactive waste, have no safe place to go. If we're not careful, we can harm our planet beyond repair.
People need to respect the Earth and try to preserve it. If we don't, what kind of future will we have?
I like reading, reading can bring me happiness, and let me learn a lot ofinteresting knowledge. I like to read story books best, such as journey to thewest. The Monkey King in this book is clever and brave, not afraid of hard work,protecting his master, he is a responsible person. And is "journey to the west"one of the four great classics? Is it interesting? Do you like readingbooks?
我喜欢读书，读书能给我带来快乐，并且让我学到很多有趣的知识。我最喜欢看故事书，比如《西游记》，这本书里的孙悟空聪明勇敢，不怕辛苦，保护自己的师傅，是一个负责的人。并且《西游记》是四大名著之一，是不是很有趣？你喜欢看书吗？
Shanghai residents breathed the most polluted air they had seen in two months on Wednesday as weak cold air from the north brought pollutants to the Yangtze River Delta.
But clean air is expected on Thursday thanks to another round of cold air, forecasters said.
Seasonal factors played an important role as winter is the high pollution season, and straw burning in nearby provinces also contributed to the pollution, experts said.
Shanghais air quality index, a new air quality reporting system that monitors sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, PM10 and PM2.5, reached 254 by 7 pm on Wednesday.
The figure, which indicated the air had reached the level of heavy pollution, was the highest seen since the index was introduced two months ago, according to the Shanghai Environmental Monitoring Center.
Shanghais hourly density of PM2.5, air particles smaller than 2.5 microns, also reached 250 micrograms per cubic meter by 10 am, while the reading was only 60 micrograms per cubic meter early Tuesday morning.
The heavy pollution in the eastern metropolis followed thick air pollution in Beijing over the weekend. Beijings density of PM2.5 broke the record since the municipality began publishing the data in early 20xx as its figure went higher than 900 micrograms per cubic meter in several districts of the city on Saturday.
Lin Chenyan, a forecaster with Shanghai Environmental Monitoring Center, said the cold front brought in airborne pollutants from the north.
"The cold snap is like a broom sweeping down all the way to Shanghai, and it brings the dust here," said Lin, adding that atmospheric motion sometimes causes trouble such as that.
Before arriving in Shanghai, the pollutants had left some of Shanghais neighboring provinces shrouded in smog and fog.
Fifty out of the 72 monitoring stations in Jiangsu province reported medium to heavy pollution on Monday evening, according to Zhang Xiangzhi, deputy director of the Jiangsu Environmental Monitoring Center.
Yang Xin, a professor with Fudan Universitys department of environmental science and engineering who specializes in atmospheric particulates, said seasonal influences explain the record-breaking data in both Beijing and Shanghai.
"Take Shanghai as an example. It just celebrated its cleanest summer in 20xx - sea breeze from the southeast is helpful in diluting pollutants in the air. However, the monsoons coming from the northwest in the winter usually bring dirty air from the north," Yang said.
Agricultural straw burning in nearby areas also contributed to part of Shanghais PM2.5 reading, according to Wang Lin, a researcher at Fudan Universitys Department of Environmental Science and Engineering.
"But its hard for the Shanghai government to prohibit farmers in the neighboring regions from doing so," Wang said.
According to Lin, the forecaster, Shanghais air was set to improve on Wednesday night and early Thursday morning. The next wave of cold air is much cleaner because of the clearing of air pollution in the north.
One windy spring day， I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites。 Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds darting and dancing。 As the strong winds gusted against the kites， a string kept them in check。
Instead of blowing away with the wind， they arose against it to achieve great heights。 They shook and pulled， but the restraining string and the cumbersome tail kept them in tow， facing upward and against the wind。 As the kites struggled and trembled against the string， they seemed to say， “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!” They soared beautifully even as they fought the restriction of the string。 Finally， one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose。 “Free at last，” it seemed to say。 “Free to fly with the wind。”
Yet freedom from restraint simply put it at the mercy of an unsympathetic breeze。 It fluttered ungracefully to the ground and landed in a tangled mass of weeds and string against a dead bush。 “Free at last” free to lie powerless in the dirt， to be blown helplessly along the ground， and to lodge lifeless against the first obstruction。
How much like kites we sometimes are。 The Heaven gives us adversity and restrictions， rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength。 Restraint is a necessary counterpart to the winds of opposition。 Some of us tug at the rules so hard that we never soar to reach the heights we might have obtained。 We keep part of the mandment and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground。
Let us each rise to the great heights， recognizing that some of the restraints that we may chafe under are actually the steadying force that helps us ascend and achieve。
在一个有风的春日，我看到一群年轻人正在迎风放风筝玩乐，各种颜色、各种形状和大小的风筝就好像美丽的鸟儿在空中飞舞。当强风把风筝吹起，牵引线就能够控制它们。
风筝迎风飘向更高的地方，而不是随风而去。它们摇摆着、拉扯着，但牵引线以及笨重的尾巴使它们处于控制之中，并且迎风而上。它们挣扎着、抖动着想要挣脱线的束缚，仿佛在说：“放开我！放开我！我想要自由！”即使与牵引线奋争着，它们依然在美丽地飞翔。最后，一只风筝成功挣脱了。“最后自由了，”它好像在说，“最后能够随风自由飞翔了！”
然而，脱离束缚的自由使它完全处于无情微风的摆布下。它毫无风度地震颤着向地面坠落，落在一堆乱草之中，线缠绕在一颗死灌木上。“最后自由”使它自由到无力地躺在尘土中，无助地任风沿着地面将其吹走，碰到第一个障碍物便毫无生命地滞留在那里了。
有时我们真像这风筝啊！上苍赋予我们困境和约束，赋予我们成长和增强实力所要遵从的规则。约束是逆风的必要匹配物。我们中有些人是如此强硬地抵制规则，以至我们从来无法飞到本来能够到达的高度。我们只遵从部分戒律，因此永远不会飞得足够高，使尾巴远离地面。
让我们每个人都飞到高处吧，并且认识到这一点：有些可能会令我们生气的约束，实际上是帮忙我们攀升和实现愿望的平衡力。
With the development of the modern technology，private car is no longer a luxurious thing for ordinary people，more and more people drive to work instead of going by bus. The popularization of private car has many advantages.First， it is very convenient and time-saving ，you can drive your own car to the workplace instead of waiting for the crowded bus and afraid of being late for working.Second，it can also improve the traffic structure，and help to mitigate the stress of the traffic.Third， the popularization of private car can help to promote the car industry and any other interrelated industries. I believe that in the future the private car will become the most important vehicle and we cann't live without it.
随着现代科技的发展，私人汽车对于普通人来说不再是一件奢侈的事情，越来越多的人开车去上班而不是乘公共汽车。私人汽车的普及有很多优点。首先，它是非常方便和节省时间，你可以驾驶自己的汽车去工作而不是等着拥挤的公共汽车和上班迟到。第二，它也能改善交通结构，有助于缓解交通压力。第三，私人汽车的普及可以帮助促进汽车产业和其他相关产业。我相信在未来的私家车将成为最重要的交通工具，我们不能没有它。
Today, YuHuangJian will set up a new tourism development company, YuHuangJian made me again. To reduce the future work burden and pressure, before accepting the position, general manager of the company from my planning department minister. Although in recent years, due to my limited ability and level, the propaganda work, such as brand positioning, project marketing, event planning, enterprise brand publicity, news media, public relations, internal management and the lack of this and that, but I still want to take this opportunity to emphasize the importance of branding.
As a communication between enterprises and consumers the most effective way to brand publicity can improve enterprise well-knownness, shaping the corporate image, establish enterprise reputation, cultivate brand loyalty, in order to promote the development of the enterprise have the effect of get twice the result with half the effort. It is not happen overnight but corporate communications, both must focus on service reality marketing demand, and to give attention to two or morethings enterprise brand capital accumulation, it is a long process. Communication goals and marketing objectives should have consistency, target is a target for marketing brand communication services. In the implementation of brand communication, want to understand their own brand core value, connotation, to public relations, sales promotion, visual, publicity tools such as language to achieve unity, harmonious communication effect.
Though, my job is not to everyone's requirements and expectations, even though I have given it a few years the accumulation of media resources from all walks of life and all the material about YuHuangJian completes the handover, I to promote the work also has a lot of love and, in the coming days to propaganda you need me to do things will still be responsive, however, I believe that with the development of the company, more talented people. "Sunrise river bonus - fire, spring to bluish green blue". Believe that the next will do better than me.
When people find out I write about time management, they assume two is that I'm always on time, and I'm not. I have four small children, and Iwould like to blame them for my occasional tardiness, but sometimes it's justnot their fault. I was once late to my own speech on time management.
当人们发现我写关于时间管理的文章时，他们都会假设两件事：第一，我永远都准时，但我并不是。我有四个小孩，我偶尔将迟到归咎于他们，不过有时候真的不是因为他们。我有一次在去我的一个关于时间管理的演讲时迟到了。
We all had to just take a moment together and savor that irony.
我们都需要一点时间去好好地体味一下这有多么讽刺。
The second thing they assume is that I have lots of tips and tricks forsaving bits of time here and there.Sometimes I'll hear from magazines that aredoing a story along these lines, generally on how to help their readers find anextra hour in the day. And the idea is that we'll shave bits of time offeveryday activities, add it up, and we'll have time for the good stuff.
第二，人们总是假设我有很多关于如何节省时间的贴士和技巧。有时候我听说一些杂志在写这方面的故事，通常都是关于教读者如何在一天中获得额外一个小时。基本思路就是从日常的每个活动中挤出一点时间，加起来，然后我们就有时间去做更有意思的事情了。
I question the entire premise of this piece, but I'm always interested inhearing what they've come up with before they call me. Some of myfavorites:doing errands where you only have to make right-hand turns.
我对这个说法持保留意见，不过我还是愿意听听他们在找我之前有什么想法。我最喜欢的几个是：只完成那些只需要右转的事；
Being extremely judicious in microwave usage: it says three tothree-and-a-half minutes on the package, we're totally getting in on the bottomside of that. And my personal favorite, which makes sense on some level, is toDVR your favorite shows so you can fast-forward through the commercials.
在用微波炉时，要极度审慎：当食物包装上面写了3到3.5分钟时，我们要挑时间最短的那个。我个人最喜欢的是，录下你最喜欢看的电视剧，然后你就可以跳过广告了。其实在某个程度上，还是挺有道理的。
That way, you save eight minutes every half hour, so in the course of twohours of watching TV, you find 32 minutes to exercise.
这样，你每半个小时就可以挤出八分钟。那么你葱用来看电视的两个小时中，可以挤出32分钟锻炼的时间。
Which is true. You know another way to find 32 minutes to exercise? Don'twatch two hours of TV a day, right?
倒的确是这么回事儿。你还知道其他可以找到32分钟锻炼时间的方法吗？不要每天都看两个小时电视就行了，对吧？ (笑声)
Anyway, the idea is we'll save bits of time here and there, add it up, wewill finally get to everything we want to do. But after studying how successfulpeople spend their time and looking at their schedules hour by hour, I thinkthis idea has it completely backward.
总之，就是要在各处都省点时间，加起来就有时间做我们想做的事了。但在我了解成功的人如何分配时间，并看过了他们的时间表后，我觉得这个想法是完全本末倒置的。
We don't build the lives we want by saving time. We build the lives wewant, and then time saves itself.
我们不是通过节省时间来打造我们想过的生活。我们应该先建立我们想要的生活，时间就会自然而然节省出来。
Here's what I mean. I recently did a time diary project looking at 1,001days in the lives of extremely busy women. They had demanding jobs, sometimestheir own businesses, kids to care for, maybe parents to care for, communitycommitments -- busy, busy people.
我来解释一下。我最近有个时间日记项目，观察最忙碌的女士生命中的1001天。她们工作繁忙，有时候是自己的生意，有时候要照顾自己的孩子，或者是照顾父母，还有服务社区等等——都是一些很忙的人。
I had them keep track of their time for a week so I could add up how muchthey worked and slept, and I interviewed them about their strategies, for mybook.
我让她们记录了一星期的行程，计算她们工作和睡觉的时间，为了我的书，我还采访 了解了她们的常用策略。
One of the women whose time log I studied goes out on a Wednesday night forsomething. She comes home to find that her water heater has broken, and there isnow water all over her basement. If you've ever had anything like this happen toyou, you know it is a hugely damaging, frightening, sopping mess.
其中一个被我研究过时间表的女士，在一个周三晚上出去了一趟，回家发现她的热水器坏了，地下室都被水淹了。如果你也遇到过这种事儿的话，你会知道眼前的景象多么令人崩溃和沮丧。
So she's dealing with the immediate aftermath that night, next day she'sgot plumbers coming in, day after that, professional cleaning crew dealing withthe ruined carpet. All this is being recorded on her time log. Winds up takingseven hours of her week. Seven hours. That's like finding an extra hour in theday.
于是那个晚上她立刻着手处理，第二天她找了一个水管工，第三天找了专业的清理人员来处理损坏的地毯。所有这些都算在了她的时间表内。总共花了她一周中的七个小时。七个小时。这就等于一周七天每天都要挤出一个小时。
But I'm sure if you had asked her at the start of the week, "Could you findseven hours to train for a triathlon?" "Could you find seven hours to mentorseven worthy people?" I'm sure she would've said what most of us would've said,which is, "No -- can't you see how busy I am?" Yet when she had to find sevenhours because there is water all over her basement, she found seven hours.
但是假如你在这一周刚开始时就问她，“你能在这周抽出七个小时来参加铁人三项吗？”，“你能在这周抽出七个小时指导七个有潜力的人吗？“我确定她会像大多数人一样， 说，”怎么可能，你看不出我有多忙吗？“ 但是她最后不得不抽出七个小时，因为她的地下室都被水淹了， 她挤出了这七个小时。
And what this shows us is that time is highly elastic. We cannot make moretime, but time will stretch to accommodate what we choose to put into it.
这件事告诉我们：时间是有弹性的。我们不能创造更多时间，但是时间会自己调整去适应我们选择去做的事情。
And so the key to time management is treating our priorities as theequivalent of that broken water heater. To get at this, I like to use languagefrom one of the busiest people I ever interviewed. By busy, I mean she wasrunning a small business with 12 people on the payroll, she had six children inher spare time.
所以时间管理的关键，就是对待最重要的事情应该像对待那个坏了的热水器一样。要做到这一点，我要借用我采访过最忙的人的话。她经营着一个小企业，请了十二名员工，空余时间她还要照顾六个孩子。
I was getting in touch with her to set up an interview on how she "had itall" -- that phrase. I remember it was a Thursday morning, and she was notavailable to speak with me. Of course, right?
我联系上了她，想要采访她关于她是怎么做到“无所不能”的。我记得那是一个星期四的早晨，她没时间和我说话。当然了，她很忙。
But the reason she was unavailable to speak with me is that she was out fora hike, because it was a beautiful spring morning, and she wanted to go for ahike. So of course this makes me even more intrigued, and when I finally docatch up with her, she explains it like this. She says, "Listen Laura,everything I do, every minute I spend, is my choice."
但是她没时间和我说话的原因是，她去远足了。因为那是春季一个美丽的清晨，所以她去远足了。这样的她让我变得更感兴趣了，当我最终联系上她时，她说：“听我说，劳拉，我做的所有的事情，我花的每分每秒，都是我的选择。
And rather than say, "I don't have time to do x, y or z," she'd say, "Idon't do x, y or z because it's not a priority." "I don't have time," oftenmeans "It's not a priority."
”所以与其说， ”我没有时间做这个，这个，或者那个。” 她会说：”我不做这些事情因为这些不是我的首要任务。““我没有时间”的意思通常是”那不是我的首要任务”。
If you think about it, that's really more accurate language. I could tellyou I don't have time to dust my blinds, but that's not true. If you offered topay me $100,000 to dust my blinds, I would get to it pretty quickly.
其实你想想， 那的确是更准确的说法。我可能会告诉你我没有时间清理百叶窗，但那不是真的。假如你愿意付我10万美金让我给百叶窗除尘，我会马上就去做。(笑声)
Since that is not going to happen, I can acknowledge this is not a matterof lacking time; it's that I don't want to do it. Using this language reminds usthat time is a choice. And granted, there may be horrible consequences formaking different choices, I will give you that.
既然那不可能发生，我可以说不是因为时间不够，而是我不想做。这么说提醒了我们，时间是一种选择。我会告诉你，当然，不同的选择有时候会带来可怕的后果。
But we are smart people, and certainly over the long run, we have the powerto fill our lives with the things that deserve to be there.
但是我们都是聪明人，从长远来看，我们有能力去选择一些值得做的事，来填补我们生命中的时间。那么我们应该怎么做呢？
So how do we do that? How do we treat our priorities as the equivalent ofthat broken water heater?
我们要如何像对待那个坏了的热水器一样对待我们的首要任务？首先，我们需要找出哪些事最重要。
Well, first we need to figure out what they are. I want to give you twostrategies for thinking about this.The first, on the professional side: I'm suremany people coming up to the end of the year are giving or getting annualperformance reviews. You look back over your successes over the year, your"opportunities for growth." And this serves its purpose, but I find it's moreeffective to do this looking forward.
我想给你们分享两个技巧。第一个，从职业的角度来说：我相信许多人在年底的时候，会发出或者收到年度绩效审查。你回头看看这一年的成功和“成长的机会”。这的确起到了它的作用，但是我发现往前看会更有效。
So I want you to pretend it's the end of next year. You're giving yourselfa performance review,and it has been an absolutely amazing year for youprofessionally. What three to five things did you do that made it so amazing? Soyou can write next year's performance review now.
我想让你们把这当做下一年的年底。你在给自己做年度绩效审查，在专业方面，这一年的表现非常出众。是哪三到五件事使这一年变得如此出众？你现在就可以写明年的绩效审查。
And you can do this for your personal life, too. I'm sure many of you, likeme, come December, get cards that contain these folded up sheets of coloredpaper, on which is written what is known as the family holiday letter.
你也可以在个人生活方面这么做。我相信你们许多人，包括我，在十二月，都会收到这种夹着彩色纸的卡片。上面写着“家庭假日信件”。
Bit of a wretched genre of literature, really, going on about how amazingeveryone in the household is,or even more scintillating, how busy everyone inthe household is. But these letters serve a purpose,which is that they tell yourfriends and family what you did in your personal life that mattered to you overthe year.
听起来像是一个挺悲惨的文学题材，谈论家里每个人有多了不起，或者更精彩点，家里每个人有多忙。但是这些信有它们的用处，它们告诉你的朋友和家人你这一年里做了什么对个人生活有意义的事。
So this year's kind of done, but I want you to pretend it's the end of nextyear, and it has been an absolutely amazing year for you and the people you careabout. What three to five things did you do that made it so amazing? So you canwrite next year's family holiday letter now. Don't send it.
那么今年快要结束了，我想让你假装这是明年的年底，对你和你在乎的人来说，这都是无与伦比的一年。哪三到五件事让你这一年表现如此出色？其实你现在就可以写明年的家庭假日信件了。先不要发出去。
Please, don't send it. But you can write it. And now, between theperformance review and the family holiday letter, we have a list of six to tengoals we can work on in the next year.
真的，不要发出去。但是你可以写。现在，有了绩效评估和写给家人的信，我们就有了六到十个明年可以努力的目标。我们需要先把他们分成可行的阶段性任务。
And now we need to break these down into doable steps. So maybe you want towrite a family history.First, you can read some other family histories, get asense for the style. Then maybe think about the questions you want to ask yourrelatives, set up appointments to interview them. Or maybe you want to run a 5K.So you need to find a race and sign up, figure out a training plan, and digthose shoes out of the back of the closet.
或许你要写一个家族传记。首先吗，你可以读读别人的家族历史，了解一下大概的风格然后可以想象你要问亲戚的问题，约定和他们见面谈话的时间。或者你想要参加一个五千米的短程马拉松。你需要先找一个竞赛报名，再做一个培训计划，从衣柜底下翻出你的运动鞋。
And then -- this is key -- we treat our priorities as the equivalent ofthat broken water heater, by putting them into our schedules first. We do thisby thinking through our weeks before we are in them.
然后——这是关键——我们将我们的首要事件视为那个坏掉的热水器，将它们优先放入我们的日程表里。我们要在事情发生的几周前就先想好。
I find a really good time to do this is Friday afternoons. Friday afternoonis what an economist might calla "low opportunity cost" time. Most of us are notsitting there on Friday afternoons saying, "I am excited to make progress towardmy personal and professional priorities right now."
我发现周五的下午最适合处理这事儿。周五的下午是被经济学家称为“低机会成本”时间。我们大部分人不会在周五下午想着，“我要朝我的个人和职业生涯的首要事件迈进了，所以很兴奋。“
But we are willing to think about what those should be. So take a littlebit of time Friday afternoon, make yourself a three-category priority list:career, relationships, self. Making a three-category list reminds usthat thereshould be something in all three categories.
但是我们愿意去想那些事是什么。所以在周五下午花一点时间，为自己做一个分成三类的首要事件的列表：事业、人际关系、个人。这样的三项分类列表提醒了我们每一个类别都应该有一些事。
Career, we think about; relationships, self -- not so much. But anyway,just a short list, two to three items in each. Then look out over the whole ofthe next week, and see where you can plan them in.
事业，我们经常考虑；人际关系，个人——很少会想。无论如何，只要一个短短的列表，每个都包含两到三件事。它们会帮助我们看清下周，如何在下周计划这些事情。你可以决定如何计划。
Where you plan them in is up to you. I know this is going to be morecomplicated for some people than others. I mean, some people's lives are justharder than others. It is not going to be easy to find time to take that poetryclass if you are caring for multiple children on your own. I get that. And Idon't want to minimize anyone's struggle. But I do think that the numbers I amabout to tell you are empowering.
这可能对一些人来说会比较困难一点。我的意思是，有些人的人生就是比较复杂。如果你自己有好几个要照顾的小孩，想要找时间去参加诗歌班一定不容易。我懂。我不想轻视任何人的困难。但是我觉得我接下来要说的数字，是会改变你的想法的。
There are 168 hours in a week. Twenty-four times seven is 168 hours. Thatis a lot of time. If you are working a full-time job, so 40 hours a week,sleeping eight hours a night, so 56 hours a week -- that leaves 72 hours forother things. That is a lot of time.
我们每周都有168个小时，24乘以7是168个小时。这是一段很长时间。假如你有一个全职的工作，一周是40个小时，每晚睡八个小时，一周是56个小时，我们有剩下72个小时来做其他事情。这是一段很长的时间。
You say you're working 50 hours a week, maybe a main job and a side hustle.Well, that leaves 62 hours for other things. You say you're working 60 hours.Well, that leaves 52 hours for other things. You say you're working more than 60hours. Well, are you sure?
假如你说你每周工作50个小时，比如一份全职和一份兼职。这样你还是有60小时去做其他的事情。假如你说你每周工作60个小时，你还是有52个小时去做其他的事情。你说你每周工作超过60个小时，你确定吗？
There was once a study comparing people's estimated work weeks with timediaries. They found that people claiming 75-plus-hour work weeks were off byabout 25 hours.
曾经有一个研究对比了人们估计的工作时间，和实际的工作日记。他们发现那些表示工作超过75小时的人，有25小时的误差。
You can guess in which direction, right? Anyway, in 168 hours a week, Ithink we can find time for what matters to you.
你可以猜到这个误差是多了还是少了吧？无论如何，在一周的168个小时里，我觉得我们总可以找到时间做我们想做的事。
If you want to spend more time with your kids, you want to study more for atest you're taking, you want to exercise for three hours and volunteer for two,you can. And that's even if you're working way more than full-time hours.
如果你想花时间陪陪你的孩子，或者准备你即将到来的考试，你想锻炼两三个小时或者 做两个小时志愿者，你都可以的。即便你的工作时间远超过法定时间。
So we have plenty of time, which is great, because guess what? We don'teven need that much time to do amazing things. But when most of us have bits oftime, what do we do? Pull out the phone, right?Start deleting emails. Otherwise,we're puttering around the house or watching TV.
所以我们有很多时间，这很好。但是你知道吗？我们根本不需要那么多时间去完成一个大目标。但当我们有一点空闲时间的时候，我们会做什么？拿出手机，是吧？开始删除邮件。或者在家里闲逛，看电视。
But small moments can have great power. You can use your bits of time forbits of joy. Maybe it's choosing to read something wonderful on the bus on theway to work.
但是每个不起眼的时刻都潜力无限。你可以用零星的时间，来获得零星的快乐。比如说在去上班的公车上读一些精彩的东西。
I know when I had a job that required two bus rides and a subway ride everymorning, I used to go to the library on weekends to get stuff to read. It madethe whole experience almost, almost, enjoyable. Breaks at work can be used formeditating or praying. If family dinner is out because of your crazy workschedule, maybe family breakfast could be a good substitute.
当我以前的工作需要我每天早上乘两趟公车和一趟地铁的时候，我周末会去图书馆找东西来读。这几乎，几乎让我的生活更丰富了。工作间隙的休息时间可以用来冥想或者祷告。如果�
It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where the goodstuff can go. I truly believe this.There is time. Even if we are busy, we havetime for what matters. And when we focus on what matters, we can build the liveswe want in the time we've got.
这就是看着一个人所有的时间，然后找到什么时候可以做想做的事。我真的相信，我们都有充分的时间。就算我们很忙，我们仍然有时间去做重要的事。当我们关注在重要的事上时，我们可以用所拥有的时间创造我们想要的生活。
Thank you.
谢谢。
In Chinese Spring Festival Gala the song of where Has the Time Gone became popular. The words are so touching that when people listen to this song many memories will come out. For our parents’ generation they married raised the kids and then watched them become independent how time flies. It is just like that they became parents yesterday and then they become grandparents today. Time flies so fast that they don’t realize they are old. I am so thankful to my parents for they do so many things for me. I want to return their love so I must become more independent and mature. So that my parents will be less worried about me and can go travel to enjoy their lives. For me I want to cherish every moment enjoy my own life and let the time go more slowly.
在中国的春节联欢晚会上，歌曲“时间都去哪儿了”很受欢迎。歌词很动人，以至于人们听到歌曲的时候，很多记忆都涌现出来。对于我们父母那一代人来说，他们结婚，生孩子，然后看着孩子独立，时间过得真快啊。一切就如他们昨天成为父母，然后今天就成为了祖父母。时间过的如此的快，他们都没有意识到自己老了。我很感激父母，因为他们为了做了那么多事情。我想要回报他们的爱，所以我必须变得更加的独立和成熟。这样父母就不用为我操那么多的心，可以去旅游，享受生活。对于我来说，我想要珍惜每一刻，享受我的生活，让时间走得慢些。
Ladies and gentlemen:
Good morning! Today, the title of my speech isImproving Beijing's environment for the Olympics. Have you ever seen animalscry? Do you know what makes them cry? It's the polluted world, a dirty world,caused by our irresponsible behaviors, that makes those lovely animals cry. Manyof us are smart enough to know how terrible it is to have a world withoutanimals and plants. But some people still persist in making the same errors andharming the environment.
What's worse is that people are eating wild animals. Those people don'tknow, and more importantly, they don't want to know. This kind of behavior hascaused some specific problems. For example, medical experts have suggested thateating wild animals helped spread the terrible disease SARS. Now, our world isno longer clean and beautiful. Why? Because air, water, and noise pollution hasbecome more and more serious. Noise pollution makes us talk more loudly andbecome angry more easily. Water pollution makes our rivers and lakes very dirty.Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. Both air pollution andwater
pollution are not only dangerous to our health, but also dangerous toanimals and plants. We're destroying our only world. A large number of treeshave been cut down, so a lot of lands have been turned into deserts. Pollutioncan be seen everywhere! Unquestionably it is essential that we clean up ourenvironment. Sadly, we've not always appreciated the importance of protectingthe environment. On the streets, you can see cars producing smog. In thebathrooms, you can see students leaving the water tap on after using them. Notonly the young people, but also the elderly ones throw
things everywhere without thinking it's wrong, even in a beautiful park.these things are taking place every day, even in modern cities like Beijing. Wecan't do that any more. We must learn how to protect the environment. Ifeveryone is aware of protecting it instead of destroying it, the world canbecome cleaner, more beautiful, and more peaceful. The theme of Beijing 20__Olympic Games is "New Peking, New Olympic". It's the target owned by everyChinese. We should try our best to improve Beijing's environment forOlympics.
, let's begin to act! First, start with the things around you. Don't throwrubbish onto the road. Don't talk loudly when you are outdoors. Turn off thewater tap after using it. Go to school by bike or by bus instead of by privatecar. Save your pocket money and contribute to environmental protectionorganizations. Take me as an example, I take action in order to make our onlyworld full of happiness. I pick up rubbish and throw it into a trashcan. Icollect waste paper or bottles for recycling. I plant more trees and flowers,and so on. If you do all these things just like me, it means you have donesomething useful to improve the environment. We're grateful, because the emblemof the Beijing 20__ Olympic Games is a precious treasure dedicated to theOlympic Movement by the people of China. Under the guidance of the Olympicspirit, let us do a better job in all fields of our preparation and venueconstruction work in an efficient way. We will combine the Olympic Movement withthe latest technology and advanced culture to make the Beijing Games the bestOlympic Games ever! Welcome to Beijing! Thank you.
你可曾见到过动物哭泣？你可曾知道它们为什么哭泣？正是因为我们不负责任的行为，让世界变得肮脏，让这些可爱的动物们哭泣不止。我们清楚的知道，如果没有了动物和植物，我们的世界将会变得多么死寂，多么灰暗但是有些人仍然固执的犯着同样的错误破坏环境，执迷不悟！
更糟糕的是，人们热衷于品尝野生动物。食用野生动物的人不知道，更不会想知道，正是这种行为导致了很多特殊问题的出现。例如：医学家已经证实，举世瞩目的SARS疾病，正是由于食用野生动物传播的。
如今，我们的世界已经不再整洁，不再美丽。为什么呢？因为空气，水和噪声等污染已经变得越来越严重了。噪声污染让我们的脾气变得极易暴躁；水污染让河流和湖泊不再清澈，大气污染让天空变得不再蔚蓝。环境污染，无处不在！
无疑，清洁我们的环境势在必行。然而可悲的是，许多人不能时刻领悟到保护环境的重要性。在街道上，你可以目睹汽车尾气四处弥漫；在洗手间，你可以目睹有人用后却不及时关闭水龙头；甚至是在环境优美的公园，有人随意的丢弃垃圾，但他们从来没有意识到这种行为是错的。
我们必须学会保护我们的环境。如果我们每个人都能伸出双手，那么我们的世界将会变得更整洁，更美丽，更和平。20__年奥运会的主题是"新北京，新奥运"，这也正是我们每个人的目标。
为了让我们的家园充满欢笑，我们必须立刻行动！从我做起，从今做起，从身边小事做起。如果你还在随意丢弃废弃物；如果你还在公共设施上随意刻画；如果你还在公共场所随地吐痰，那么请你赶快改正！我们每个人都应该为改善环境做出努力，让我们的家园变得像春天一样美丽！
20__年奥运会对我们来说，既是机遇，又是挑战。我们衷心希望20__年的北京能够，春风裁柳，碧如丝绦，红日东升，光辉灿烂；夏雨过后，绿叶晶莹，禾苗秀美，青松斜生；秋风习习，桂香飘飘，碧海蓝天，秋水潺潺；冬梅傲骨，众芳独暄，白雪纷飞，覆压枝头。
让我们沉醉于上苍所给予的美景，流连忘返；让我们迷恋于自然所散发的清香，沁人心脾。
让我们以�
Everyone has a dream。
Martin luther king had a dream-and we can recall his civil rights speech。Phil knight had a dream-and now the whole world knows his nike slogan “just do it”。
I also have a dream ,but not only a simple one 。
When I was a small girl,my dream was that I would be a doctor when I grew up. I will be the first person who produces a new medicine. this kind of medicine can make teachers relax when they are busy correcting their students’ exercises and preparing their lessons. because one day when I woke up at midnight, I found my father, a senior Chinese teacher, was still busy with his work .i was deeply moved. I wish my father could be healthy and relaxed every minute.
But now, I have another dream ,I want to learn English well. I love English , English language is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on interet and internation trade .learning English makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
Everyday ,I read English following the tapes .sometimes, I watch english cartoons .on the weekend ,I often go to the English corner .by talking with different people there ,I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English . I ’will try my best 。
I know fantasy is hard to com ture,bue dream can. I’ll work hard for my dreams ,I’ll never give up.
Thank you!
中午好，尊敬的评委、亲爱的老师和朋友们：
今天我非常高兴在这里为大家做演讲，今天我将要谈论的话题是梦想。
每个人都有梦想马丁路德金有一个梦想，我们可以回忆一下他的关于黑人权利的演讲，菲尔奈特做了一个梦，现在全世界都知道他的耐克公司的口号“只是做到这一点”。
我也有一个梦想，但不是一个简单的。
当我还是个小女孩的时候，我的梦想是长大后能当一名医生。我想成为世界上第一个发明药的人。这种药可以使老师放松下来当他们忙着批改学生的联系的时候或者是备课的时候。因为又一次当我在半夜醒来的时候，我发现，我的爸爸，一个高中的语文教师，正在忙着工作。我被深深的感动了。我希望我的爸爸每一分钟都是健康的、都是放松的`。
但是现在，我又有一个梦想，我想学好英语。我爱英语，英语现在被广泛的应用着。它在国际贸易中已经是一种很普遍的语言了。学习英语使我感到非常自信并且给我带来的许多快乐。每天，我都跟着磁带在学英语。有时候，我也会看一些英语卡通。在周末，我经常去英语角。在这，通过与不同的人交谈，我不仅提高了我的英语口语，而且还结交了很多朋友。
我将会尽我最大的努力我知道幻想是很难实现的，但是梦想是可以实现的。我会为我的梦想而努力奋斗，我永远都不会放弃！
谢谢大家！
One night, I complained to my mom about the lack of time. Finally she said,"you are short of time just because you waste precious minutes on complaints and anxiety. The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard, you can always fit in some thing more."
It is the same with filling the jar. Even if you place a dozen fist-sized rocks and a bucket of gravel into the jar, there is still space for sand and water between the rocks and gravel.
The lack of time is just the excuse for my negligence of every single minute. I believe that the great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in six words,"I did not have enough time."The fact is I do have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein. The point is I have never touched upon the real meaning of life which lies in snatching, seizing and enjoying every minute of it. No idleness, no delay, no procrastination, no complaint! It is during my moments of complaining or hesitation that my destiny is shaped. Once I make full use of every moment, I believe that, my worries will be gradually cut down to nothing.
Time is the most valuable of all our possessions, but the most perishable as well. As Henry David Thoreau said,"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment."
Whenever I fell the lack of time in the future, I will tell myself "Carpe diem , seize the day, make every moment count."
抓住每分每秒
有天晚上，我向妈妈抱怨自己事情太多，时间不够。她说道：“你抱怨没有时间就是因为你把珍贵的分分秒秒都浪费在抱怨和焦虑上。关键是，无论你的时间表排得多满，如果你真的努力尝试了，你还是总能间插地做些事情。”
这同填充广口瓶是一个道理，即使你将一小堆拳头大小的石块和一桶碎石倒进瓶里，也还能继续倒入沙子和水，使其漏进石块的间隙中去。
“没时间”无异 我相信成功与失败的一线之差可以用六个字来形容：“我没足够时间。” 然而事实上，我却与海伦。凯勒，帕斯特，杰弗逊和爱因斯坦每天所拥有的时间分秒不差。关键是我并未触及生命的真谛：抓住，享受生命的每一分钟。不要碌碌无为，不要耽搁推迟，不要牢骚抱怨！往往是在我抱怨和迟疑的时候，我的命运就被决定了。而一旦我能善用分分秒秒，我相信我的烦恼也会被逐渐瓦解。
在我们所拥有的财富中，时间是最珍贵而又最不持久的。正如梭罗所说的那样：“你得抓住现在，把握机会，在短暂的瞬间中寻找永恒。”
如果将来我再发觉没时间的时候，我会告诫自己，“carpe diem (拉丁语)，抓住今天，抓住每分每秒。”
英语演讲稿三：Hold Fast To Your Dreams
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King. But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.
However, we meed dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectives and stick to it. Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future. Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will make it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
抓牢你的梦想
我今天有一个梦想。
我梦想有一天，幽谷上升，高山下降，崎岖之地变平原，曲折之路成坦途。圣光展露，满照人间。
这对马丁路德金是怎样的一个梦想啊。不过这个变化着的世界似乎在告诉我，在成长的过程中，人们却不知不觉把他们的梦想弄丢了，而我自己也有时会觉得在告别很多童年的梦。
然而，我们是需要梦想的。梦想滋养我们的灵魂，梦想代表着我们被现实拉垮时依然具有的希望。它鼓励我们不断前进。大多数成功人士都是梦想家，同时也是普通人，只是他们敢于梦想敢于成就伟大。当我们还是孩子的时候，我们都梦想过做一番大事业，现在应当做的就是保存好那些梦想，再度恢复它们，并将它们实现。不过最难的是我们通常不知道怎样付诸实施。那么，就从最具体的目标开始，坚持去做吧。不要让那些莫名的恐惧迷惑了我们的双眼，影响了我们对未来的信念。用我们的天资和智慧，用我们的耐力和创造力，我们一定会实现梦想。
抓牢你的梦想，因为如果梦想死亡，生活就成了一只折断翅膀的鸟再也不能飞翔。抓牢你的梦想，因为如果失去梦想，生命就成了一块覆盖着冰雪的贫瘠的冻土。亲爱的朋友们，想想那些过去的或已经死去的梦想吧。不管是什么，重新将它捡起，并从今天开始让它重生。
low-carbon life
—— a harmonious world
r ecently , low-carbon life becomes a high-frequency and fashionable word which gets the greatest concern in the world . low-carbon life means a lifestyle that people do their best to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. as to me, when i heard this word at first time, i just felt apathetic, but things came different when the following news hit me accidentally.
on nov.11th , the singles' day，there was a very special collective wedding ceremony entitled “zero release of carbon” at the seaside of shenzhen，where 37 pairs of new couples held their marriage oath activity and signed their names on a board to show their willingness to be the environmental guardian .
no hot food but buffet, no wedding limousines but bicycles, no fireworks but pigeons releasing. i was moved in a great sense by all these.
what impressed me most was an old couple who was over 60 years old. they appeared to be the most passionate one, expressing their solid determination to follow the lifestyle forever, which made me a bit ashamed. look! the low-carbon life is so close to us, even the old couples can do it, why can’t we young students? we should say, yes we can!
take me as an example, i’m a meat lover. every meal without meat, i feel uncomfortable, but recently, i changed my dietary habit . please allow me to ask you a question: do you know what is the main cause of the global warming?okay, let me tell you. those people who eat meat!that’s true! when we produce one kilogram meat, we will exhaust 36.4 kilogram co2 just like we drive the car for three hours. if every chinese eat meat one kilogram less than before, the emissions of the co2 will be 47,320,000,000 kilograms less than before! unbelievable!
eating habit is only one side, as a matter of fact, low-carbon life exists in all the aspects in our daily life. do not buy too many clothes、do not use lift if possible、 do not watch too much tv、 do use the recycled paper、do use the energy-saving lamp、do use the e-book and many many things ,remember , low-carbon is just around you !
lately , from nov.29th to dec. 10th , the united nations climate change conferencestaged in cancun , mexico , aiming to put the bali roadmap into practice and make it legally binding .besides , the international community has also taken effective measures to control the damage of our environment , leading to the foundation of various treaties like the united nations framework convention on climate change 、the kyoto protocol and so on.
in a word , as a college student，we should cultivate our awareness of energy saving; we should put it into practice; and we should help our
families and friends to live a low-carbon life. only by doing so can we hope to create a world where all humans enjoy a harmonious life. yes, we can!
As the saying goes: "failure is the mother of success." This seems to have become a commonplace talk of an old scholar, but the actions and words are sometimes not consistent. When you report "red light", or the difficulties encountered in the work, your heart is in addition to upset, the other nothing? Are you aware of this failure is pregnant with the seeds of success! In this regard, everyone's answer is certainly not the same! This is quite necessary to talk about: failure is the mother of success.
There everything is going smoothly. Things, yet failure is always there, otherwise, the "inventor", "literary giant" reputation will not easily fall everyone's head? Throughout history, those who rise above the common herd men can succeed, it is because they can treat correctly failure, learn from failure to kick in, fail this stumbling block, set foot on the road to success, such as the great inventor Thomas Edison, too many to count - successful students, life is too many to count the failure. He was an invention has undergone eight thousand failed experiment, but he does not think it is a waste, but said: "why should I sad? This failed eight thousand times at least, so I understand the eight thousand experiments is not feasible." Edison's attitude towards failure. He often draw lessons from failure, sum up experience, thus achieved at a failed many times in the basis of inventions. Failures will bring pain, but it can also make people gain; it is pointed out to us that the errors and shortcomings in work, but also inspire us step by step to success. Failure is the success of negation, and is the foundation of success, that is to say: "failure is the mother of success."
However, in reality the success not failure accumulation, but failed to summary and beyond. If you don't understand this point, will cause the "absurd conclusion failure of more and more successful". Such as mathematics famous parallel axiom, from its inception, has always been suspicions. For thousands of years, countless mathematicians committed to proving the parallel axiom, but failed. The mathematician Porie engaged in the parallel axiom that there is no success, eventually died a painful death in despair. While the problem like a bottomless pit, gobbling up the people's wisdom and gives nothing in return, LObachevsky after seven years of verification without results, find out the reasons of failure. LObachevsky after numerous failures, summarizes and analyzes the failure of the antecedents and consequences, from the understanding of the problem, which was a success. Thus, "failure is the mother of success" is an objective law, but really want to transition from failure to success may become a reality, but also must pass through the analysis of exploration and scientific constantly, draw lessons from failure, to guide future work, so it is not "in vain" failure.
Young people prone to failure in the work, also easy to lose heart, therefore, we only remember "failure is the mother of success." this saying, to establish a strong self-confidence, can see the hope from the disappointment, from failure to success.
"Failure is the mother of success" should not only be our favorite motto, it is more important to be our guide to action. "Bao Jianfeng from sharpen out, the plum blossom incense come from the bitter cold", benefit from the failure, rising from the hard work, this is the youth road.
Life needs positive energy. A person’s life is a road with lots ofdifficulties and various negative emotions. Everyone will have the desperatetime. Positive energy can help us go through this period of time. For example, Iam sad about the exam yesterday. But an optimistic classmate encourages me tothink in a good way and comfort me. I can recover soon. But if she also is aspessimistic as me, I won’t have recovered so quickly. Maybe I will be sad for along time. There are many similar things happening in our life. To live a betterlife, we need positive energy.
生活需要正能量。人的一生是充满困难和各种负面情绪的一条路。每个人都有郁闷的时候。正能量可以帮助我们度过这段时期。例如，我为昨天考试的事而难过。但是一个乐观的同学鼓励我往好的方面想，安慰我。我可以很快地恢复过来。但是如果她也跟我一样悲观的话，我不可能这么快恢复心情的。也许我会伤心很久。在我们的生活中有很多这种类似的事情。为了生活得更美好，我们需要正能量。
honorable judges and dear friends, my name is maer dongyan, i’m very happy today to stand here to share my speech, my imagination, and my story as an air traffic controller with all of you.
i, as a 35-year-old air traffic controller, have been working on the tower for nearly ten years. through these years’ working, i really come to love this job. besides, as the husband of my beloved, the father of my 8-year-old daughter, and the son of my old parents, i also love my family, a happy family.
however, it has been really hard to coordinate my work and my family.
it’s generally considered great to be an air traffic controller by the public, for the job is believed to be well-paid and quite easy. i was also one of them before i started the work. but things have been entirely different from what i used to think. as an air traffic controller of the new century, we’re facing tasks and barriers greater and harder than ever, that is, we have to ensure the safety and order of the fast-developing civil aviation. we’re burdened with pressure, responsibilities, the trust of hundreds of pilots, the lives of tens of thousands of passengers, and the hopes of millions of families. every step we take, every word we say is connected to the safety of passengers. and disasters may occur if we’re even a little bit careless. then, how can that be easy?
as a man who owns a family, i also have to take care of my family. still, it isn’t that easy. since i took the job 10 years ago, i haven’t had enough time to be with my family. so many festivals have i spend with microphones, but not my family and friends, just because my job needs me. so many times have my wife complained about my returning home late and having meals outside often, just because my job needs me. and so many times, my mom or dad is sick in bed, but i cannot be there with them in time, just because my job needs me. i cannot fully devote myself to my family because my job needs me, a lot of people need me. and again, as a man with a family, how can that be easy?
even though i’m not competent as a father, a husband, and a son, i still love my family. my daughter once said that it was her happiest time to see me back from work. and it’s the same with me. i’m pleased and grateful to see that my family can support and understand my work and my little devotion to them.
i have made many sacrifices as an air traffic controller. i really feel sorry for my family. but as i help pilots find their destinations under terrible weather conditions, and then hear “thanks” from them, i’m satisfied. and as i see planes taking off and landing safely, and make sure that hundreds more families can get together, i’m comforted. i even seem to be able to see the happy smiles on their faces.
such is my job, though i cannot enjoy much of the happiness my family brings to me, i can experience the sense of responsibility through my work. i’ll never regret this, regret choosing my job. it is through these years that i know what responsibility and devotion really mean. and it is through these years that i realize what family really means to me---supporting and understanding. i really appreciate them.
with my family as an anchor for me, i firmly believe that i can overcome all the difficulties on my way, and make a contribution to the cause of air traffic control. and i believe, i am, and always will be a member of civil aviation, and my family as well.
that’s all for my speech today, thank you very much for your listening.
i have a dream
i am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
but one hundred years later, the negro still is not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languished in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. and so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
in a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable rights" of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."
but we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. and so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
万圣节的前一天，小狮子坐在窗前，看到外面天空中的太阳公公。他很想知道明天万圣节太阳公公来不来。小狮子爬到高高的石台上，抬着头对着太阳说：“太阳公公，你好！”太阳不回答。小狮子想：“我离太阳公公太远了，他听不见。”
小狮子走到了山里，爬到最高的山顶上，对着太阳喊：“你好！”远远地传来了一个声音：“你好！”小狮子想太阳公公听见了，他在回答我呢。小狮子又大声叫：“明天就是万圣节了，你来不来？”太阳回答说：“明天就是万圣节了，你来不来……”小狮子说：“我来。”太阳也回答说：“我来-……”小狮子又问太阳：“你想要什么礼物？”太阳也问：“你想要什么礼物……”小狮子回答说：“我想要个南瓜头灯笼。”太阳也回答说：“我想要个南瓜头灯笼……”
小狮子下山后，去商店买了一个最漂亮的塑料南瓜头灯笼，把它放在高高的石台上，送给太阳公公。夜里一阵风吹来，南瓜头灯笼被“乎……乎……”地吹得滚了下来，“咕噜咕噜”地滚到了小狮子家的门口。
第二天早上，小狮子开门发现自己家门口有一个漂亮的南瓜头灯笼。“噢！这准是太阳公公送给我的万圣节礼物！”小狮子又爬上了山顶，朝着太阳喊：“谢谢你的礼物，万圣节快乐！”太阳也说：“谢谢你的礼物，万圣节快乐……”
