Money is regarded by some people as the most important thing in life. It is even regarded as the symbol of wealth and social position. For example， with plenty of money a man can do whatever he wants to. He can afford expensive cars and luxurious houses， and he can travel around the world and visit as many interesting places as he wants to. In their eyes， money is everything in life.
In my opinion， money can both benefit people and do harm to them. On the one hand， we can't deny that money is useful. We need money to buy food， buy a house or pay our education cost. Money can make us live more comfortably. For example， with more money， we can help others and take part in more social activities and receive a good education， thus increasing our knowledge and developing our skills. On the other hand， some people try to get money by dishonest means， for example， they often cheat and gamble， even rob and kill people. Sooner or later， they will be punished by the law. Money can bring them nothing but misery.
From In addition，money can not buy everything， For instance， no matter how much money one hast he can not buy good health， happiness or friendship， Although money is useful in many ways，there are still a lot of things that money can't buy in the world. In addition， money can also do harm to us. If a person really thinks of money as everything and pays his attention only to money， he will lose his friends， or even the care and warmth from his family. Thus， it brings him only loneliness.
hello good evening everyone!
i'm so happy that i can be admitted by my dreamed school. the new campus gives me a new start so i have a dream that the future me can rise out this small world and hold a place of myself, after several years' experience.
in order to make this dream come true, i ask myself not only focus my attention on studies ,because i should face all the society not only my textbooks or my classmates.
i think college is also a small society where i can improve myself .for example i should learn how to get along with other though i may dislike them ,or how to deal with things that i used regard as worthless and so on.
then i sincerely hope i can find my true friends so that we can struggle for our dreams together!
although every thing is unforeseeable, i believe my dream will come true as long as i stick to them and never give up!
finally , i'd like to conclude by thanking everyone who has worked so hard to make this address possible. thank you!
Accept the Gift from Life
Ladies and Gentlemen：
Today I’m glad that I’m standing here talking to you all. As the title given，I am going to talk you about a way of treating people and things in life. Myspeech here basically includes 2 parts， in the former of which I‘ll describe youthe present occasion we teenagers are in.， as well as the reason behind. Thenit’s about the several opinions of mine toward the case above.
Undoubtedly， every one of us has stepped into adolescence， a period of timewhere the most
exciting and mysterious changes take place. Boys， apparently become moreambitious. Girls， in some ways， start to dream and become more sensitive aboutthe world. All in all， as if our emotions become much stronger， somehow we’realways trapped in circles and struggling against something that can’t be changedanyway. We complain about how fragile our friendship is， how little people knowabout us， how unfair the life is，etc. It seems that every time we fail， we blameit to the tough conditions we’re in， while never notice a problem insideourselves， that we’re never satisfied.
Let’s just imagine that there was an old lady. What she sees was herneighbors’ being mean again while not how kind they were when they took care ofher sick body. What she saw was her dog’s annoying barking while not how muchloyalty it had shown.What she saw was always so depressing that it finallyturned her into an unpleasant person. Think about how our life would be if westand in her shoe.
Why don’t we focus our attention on how much we’ve already got in stead? Youknow it’s really simple to do as there’s a tremendous amount of examples. Likethe popular Jetpack Joy Ride on your Iphone， you can enjoy it whenever you like，whereas in some poor area people don’t even know such thing as Iphone.
Actually we should be thankful about the richness we’ve got， thankful thatwith each sunrise taking place we don’t need to starve to call it a day，thankful that the people we love are still in health， that we still got much tohold on. As a saying on website，” The world is tough， but I’m tougher.” Whatdoesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
Every day is a gift from life， all we need is to accept it， cherish thelessons life has taught us， so as to achieve our goal with high spirit. In thisway， someday when we leave the world， we leave no regrets.
Thank you for listening.
we've all been taught that we should help people. it is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. it may even win us favors in return. however, we must be realistic. we can't say yes to every request. if we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. in this case, we must know how to say no politely.
when we need to say no, here is one method we can try. first, we should tell the truth. if we really can't do something, we should just say so. second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. we must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. a true friend will understand. finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. it can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. in short, we cannot please everyone all the time. refusing favors is a part of life.
