number one: stop the madness for constant group work. just stop it. (laughter) thank you. (applause) and i want to be clear about what i'm saying, because i deeply believe our offices should be encouraging casual, chatty cafe-style types of interactions -- you know, the kind where people come together and serendipitously have an exchange of ideas. that is great. it's great for introverts and it's great for extroverts. but we need much more privacy and much more freedom and much more autonomy at work. school, same thing. we need to be teaching kids to work together, for sure, but we also need to be teaching them how to work on their own. this is especially important for extroverted children too. they need to work on their own because that is where deep thought comes from in part.
okay, number two: go to the wilderness. be like buddha, have your own revelations. i'm not saying that we all have to now go off and build our own cabins in the woods and never talk to each other again, but i am saying that we could all stand to unplug and get inside our own heads a little more often.
number three: take a good look at what's inside your own suitcase and why you put it there. so extroverts, maybe your suitcases are also full of books. or maybe they're full of champagne glasses or skydiving equipment. whatever it is, i hope you take these things out every chance you get and grace us with your energy and your joy. but introverts, you being you, you probably have the impulse to guard very carefully what's inside your own suitcase. and that's okay. but occasionally, just occasionally, i hope you will open up your suitcases for other people to see, because the world needs you and it needs the things you carry.
so i wish you the best of all possible journeys and the courage to speak softly.
thank you very much.
(applause)
thank you. thank you.
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being „s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what‟s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there‟s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80. That‟s all ! Thank you!
The first door I see is the opportunity to study different kinds of subjects that interest us. My aunt said she was happy to study management, but she was also happy that she could attend lectures on ancient Chinese poetry and on Shakespearean drama. As for myself, I am an English major, but I may also go to lectures on history. To me, if college education in the past emphasized specialization, now, it emphasizes free and well-rounded development of each individual. So all the fine achievements of human civilization are open to us.
The second door is the door to the outside world. Learning goes beyond classrooms and national boundaries. My aunt remembers her previous college days as monotonous and even calls her generation “frogs in a well.” But today, as the world becomes a global village, it is important that our neighbors and we be open-minded to learn with and from each other. I have many fellow international classmates, and I am applying to an exchange program with a university abroad. As for my aunt, she is planning to get an MBA degree in the United Kingdom where her daughter, my cousin, is now doing her master's degree in biochemistry. We are now taking the opportunity to study overseas, and when we come back, we'll put to use what we have learnt abroad.
Today as the development of the technology people live a much better life than before the average wage is promoted highly. The economy develops at the cost of polluting the environment we can see the pollution everywhere like the river water is dirty the situation is so serious that we must take some action to control the environmental pollution. First we should not throw away the rubbish whenever we have rubbish at hand we should keep the habit to throw it into the dustbin sometimes the garbage can be recycled. Second the government should make some measure to punish the industry which is not deal with the pollution well. With the government’s intervention the businessmen will pay special attention to the pollution and dare not to ignore it. Protecting the environment needs everyone’s effort to ourselves and our offspring’s health we must take action to protect the environment.
今天,随着科技的发展,人们比之前生活得更好,平均工资也大幅度提升。经济的发展却是以污染环境为代价,我们随处可见污染,比如河水很脏,这样的情形是如此的严重,我们必须采取措施来控制环境的污染。第一,我们不应该乱扔垃圾,无论何时我们手中有垃圾,应该养成扔进垃圾箱的习惯,有时候垃圾是可以循环利用的。第二,政府应该采取一些措施来惩罚那么不处理好污染的产业。有了政府的干预,商家就会格外注意污染,不敢忽视。保护环境需要每个人的努力,为了我们和后代的健康,我们必须采取措施来保护环境。
good evening ,ladies and gentlemen:
thank you very much for choosing to e in such a cold night。today my topic is about choice and process。a research shows that a man has to make 73 choices one day。with so many choices one day, people easily get so confused and afraid of making wrong choice that they hesitate and finally miss the true part of life。 in my opinion, the following part is of much more importance than the choice。 there is no absolute right or wrong choice but wonderful or boring life, which the process makes the difference。
life is a box of chocolate,you never know what you will get。 forrest gump made no decision by and for himself but he acplished great success with his strong will in the process。 the process is not the road itself but the attitudes and feelings ,the caution, courage and persistance we have as we encounter new experience and unexpected obstacles。 take myself as an example, i changed my major when i became a postgraduate。 after the choice,days have been harsh for me。i cannot understand the new lessons at all。 for they are closely related to mathmatics which i learned nothing about before。 however wuth the belief that this is the great chance for me to experience new ideas and challenge myself,i persisted。 i asked for help from every channel and reorgonized my life。 gradually i could understand some parts and even found maths interesting。moreover, i learned to act instead of plaining。 in retrospect,the choice left no trace in my mind but the happiness and bitterness of the past four months bees an unforgetable experience in my life。
no matter what the choice is, enjoy the process。 in the process, your potential will be inspired and new discoveries,improvement and progress will e to you。 these are the most beautiful sceneries and only on the way can you see it。these make your life colorful。
there is no need and i donnot want to judge whether it right or wrong for me to be here,but i congratulate to myself for i gain and enjoy this fantastic experience。 so my dear friends,never worry about your choice and enjoy the process。 i am sure you will get something new and intersting tonight after you chose to e here。
thank you!
Edward Winslow's account details that "they went out and killed five deer" and mentions that "our governor sent four men on fowling" and that "they four, in one day, killed as much fowl as, with a little help beside, served the company almost a week." While it is possible that turkeys may have been killed, it is more likely that ducks or geese were the primary targets.
In addition, the crops grown by both settler and Native American would have graced that early thanksgiving dinner. Corn, squash, potatoes, yams, even wheat to make bread were, in all probability, shared and enjoyed.
Dear friends! Do you still remember your first English teacher? You may say:“ Yes.” Everyone has his teachers, in my mind, I'll never forget her ------my first English teacher Ms. Li. Without her, I wouldn't be standing here. She is a young and lovely lady with beautiful eyes. Her voice sounds sweet and she speaks English very well. That was the first impression she left on us when she first gave us an English lesson.
In her class, she taught us carefully and patiently. She always made opportunities for us to speak English. She gave us many beautiful pictures to talk on them, played games with us and told us many interesting stories. Little by little, I had interest in English, but English was a new subject to me, I had many difficulties in learning it well. I often felt very confused. It was Ms. Li who helped me to find ways to overcome my difficulties. She helped me to practice speaking English everyday. She always encouraged me whenever I lost heart. She helped me to have confidence in myself. She gave me what I needed, courage, confidence, good ways to learn English and opportunities to speak English in class. So I was grateful for her. Maybe I can't meet her again. The only thing I can give her is my best wishes. I wish my dear teacher happiness, good health and good luck. And I also want to say to her: Thank you, Ms. Li. I love you!
Dear teachers and schoolmates:
Good morning!My name is LiangshunYi. I am 11 years old. I am glad to stand here to share my speech with you. My topic is 《I have a dream》.
Everyone has a dream, I have a dream, too. When I was a kid, my dream was to eat many candies everyday.But now,I am growing up, and my dream have changed.
Now, my dream is to be a teacher. I think Teacher is a very great job. Teachers teache us lots of kowledge and make us understand the truthes. So, I want to be a teacher very much.
In order to make my dream come true.I will try my best to study harder and to improve myself
I hope all children can be educated well. And I will make me excellent enough to be their teacher.
I know, on the way to pursue my dream. Perhaps I will meet many difficulties. But nevermind. The more difficulties I meet the stronger I will be There is a saying:”There is only one kind of people that are truly successful:Those who are brave enough to put up with difficulties”. I believe that no pain no gain.Even if I won’t achieve my goal I have no regrets for what I have done. So dear friends, let us work harder together to make our dream come true. If the dream of everyone comes true ,the dream of China will come true surely.

At first, you must understand the meaning of climate change. It means any long-term significant change in the average weather, which may include average temperature, precipitation, wind patterns and so on. For example, Australia is experiencing rapid climate change. Since the middle of the twentieth century, Australian temperatures have risen by about average one temperature degree with an increase in the frequency of heat waves and a decrease in the numbers of frosts and cold days. Rainfall patterns have also changed, which means that the northwest has seen an increase in rainfall over the last fifty years while much of eastern Australia and the far southwest have experienced a decline. From this example, it indicates climate change that is occurring today has sped up, and affects long-term weather. The Earth’s climate is largely affected by how much heat is stored in the atmosphere. Furthermore, the climate change is caused by dynamic process on Earth, external forces including variations in sunlight intensity, and more recently by human activities.
The most important reason of climate change is caused by humans, because humans produce a lot of carbon dioxide into the air. This carbon dioxide emits from fossil fuel, aerosols, cement manufacture, land use, animal agriculture and deforestation. For example, trees can take in carbon dioxide to produce oxygen by photosynthesis. If people cut many trees for making furniture, paper, or sell wood to make money, there is much more carbon dioxide in the air. Beginning with the industrial revolution in the nineteenth century and accelerating ever since, the human consumption of fossil fuels has raised carbon dioxide levels rapidly. It means that carbon dioxide levels are substantially higher now than before. On the other hand, during the procedure of manufacturing cement, which is used in buildings, significantly more carbon dioxide is produced. While people improve their living standard, they cause climate change. When people burn coal, oil, and gas for our electricity, carbon dioxide is produced. When people burn fossil fuel to move vehicles, carbon dioxide is also produced. These sorts of examples indicate that humans are the real culprit. They do not consider the consequence, while they enjoy producing every thing they want.
It is not just man-made pollution of the atmosphere which can cause climate change. Changes in the amount of carbon dioxide in the air have occurred naturally during the history of the Earth, leading to climate changes. When a volcano erupts, it releases huge amounts of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere. However, volcano eruptions cannot effect climate change. The main reason is that before the volcano erupts, it would release huge amount of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide for a very long time. This pollution injected into the air blocks out a lot of sunlight. Therefore, it can cause the Earth to cool over fewer years. For example, in April 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatoba, where is in the Philippine islands, emitted huge amounts of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide into the air. The movement of the Earth’s axis also affects climate change; it moves a little more than a half-degree each century. Other processes can change the Earth’s climate over millions of years. When not only continents move around the world, but also mountains ranges are built, the changing patterns of landmasses affect the way the heat in the atmosphere and in the oceans is stored. In addition, changes in the way ocean water circulates around the world can affect the climate, because the oceans store even more heat than the atmosphere. Once ocean currents change direction, slow down, or reverse, it has a significant impact on climate.
Climate change is mainly caused by carbon dioxide. This can be separated to two important parts: natural causes, and human causes. After we realise what the two important factors of climate change are, and what the climate change is, we could try to think of a more effective solution to solve the climate change problem to make a higher quality environment.
Stepping into the new century environment pollution has become more serious than ever since. There are different kinds of pollution. Such as water pollution air pollution and noise pollution and so on. It seems that we live on a planet which is full of pollution. where all these pollution comes from? To a large extend the environmental destruction is the heavy price that we pay for the rapid development of economy and the growing population. In order to have more fuel people cut down trees and dig more corals. But the growing needs for energy are hardly to meet. Countless private cars on the street the gas stations are short of gasoline even the government has raise the price so many times in order to control the needs of gasoline but it’s still not working. Overusing the natural resources has already affected the ecological balance. However the factories still release the toxic air into the sky and the polluted water into the rivers. People still lack of the conscious of protecting the environment. I think it’s time for all of us to do something.
进入新世界以来,环境污染比任何时候都要严峻。有各式各样的污染:水污染,空气污染,噪音污染等等。看起来我们活着一个四周都是污染源的星球。那么,这些污染是从何而来的呢?在很大程度上,环境被破坏就是我们为快速的经济增长和人口增加所付出的惨烈代价。为了得到更多的能源,人们砍伐树木,挖更多的煤矿,但是还是难以维持日益增长的需求。不计其数的私家车充斥着公路,加油站的汽油严重短缺,政府多次上调油价也未能阻止私家车对汽油的需求。自然资源的过度利用已经影响到了生态平衡。然而,工厂依旧向外排放有毒气体,把工业废水倒入河里。人们依旧缺乏保护环境的意识。我认为人们应该做些事情了。
The government should put forward some more strict laws to prevent the environment from being further polluted. And they should let people know more about the importance of environment protection. And we should find the balance between the economic growth and environmental protection. Plant more trees in the deserts and stop cutting down the forest. Forbid the factories to pour the waste water into the rivers directly. Encourage people to use public transportations to work. Both government and ordinary people should join hands together to make our home clean and fresh again. Only in this way our earth could be a better place to live in.
政府应该施行一些更为严格的法律来防止环境被进一步的破坏掉。他们应该让人们了解到保护环境的重要性。我们要在保持经济发展和环境保护中找到平衡点。在沙漠中植树造林,停止砍伐森林。禁止工厂往河流里直接排放废水。鼓励人们用交通工具上班。政府和普通民众都应该携手保护环境,让我们的家园变得干净整洁。只有这样,我们的地球才能更适合人类居住。
今天,我的演讲是关于人才,在我看来,人才在当今社会是不可或缺的。众所周知,国家间的斗争实际上是人才之间的战斗。
首先,我想定义“人才”这个词在我的想法,才能是一个人谁是擅长或公司部分或多个领域。如今,随着世界发展,如果一个国家想要排名顶部或世界上做得很好,国家必须有很多人才。例如,中国,世界上最大的发展中国家,在过去的120xx年里,总是被其他国家的入侵,当时为什么,原因是中国没有如此多的人才。如果他们anti-intrusion战争领袖人才,不用说,他们会打败那些大国。如果他们在武器制造人才,nodody敢惹我们。然而,如今,这是一个完全不同的情况下,中国已成为全世界powerfulin,为什么?因为有很多人才服务于国家,平民越来越有文化。越来越多的人上大学,越来越多的人开始接受进一步的教育。在军队是什么,作为回报,才能保护我们的国家免受入侵,人才在商业的帮助使我们的经济保持改善,人才航空让世界看到中国载人飞船飞行。人才在体育在奥运会上让中国排名第一……
总之,人才将起到越来越impoetant在世界上的角色,如果一个国家想要蓬勃发展,他必须尽可能多培养人才,这是所有,谢谢你。
Today, my speech is about talents,in my opinion, talents are indispensable in nowadays society. as is known to all that the fight among countries is actually the fight among talents.
First, i'd like to define the word"talent" in my idea, a talent is one person who is good at or expertised in some or multiple areas. nowadays, as the world developing goes on , if one country want to rank top or do a good job in the world, the country must have many talents.for example, china, the biggest developing country in the world, in the past 100 years, is always invaded by other countries, why ,the reason is that china at that time had not so many talents. if they had anti-intrusion leader talents in the war, needless to say,they would have beat those big powers.if they had talents in weapons manufacturing, nodody dares to provoke us.however, nowadays, it's a totally different situation, china has become powerfulin all over the world, why ? because there are many talents serving the country, the civilians become more and more literated.more and more people go to university,more and more people come to receive further education. so what is that in return,talents in army protect our country from invasion, talents in commerce help make our economy keep in improving, talents in aerospace make the world see chinese manned spacecraft flying. talents in sports make china rank the first in the olympic games……
To sum up, talents will play a more and more impoetant role in the world, if one country intends to flourish, he must foster talents as many as they can ,that's all,thank you.
the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.
they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.
首先,我想知道,你的命运给你什么?幸福,智慧,一个强壮的身体或者其他东西。如果我有问这个问题,尼克松总统,他可能会说,“命运给予我们的不是失望之酒,而是机会之杯。”
不用说,中国的一个最大的机会是20xx年奥运会。直到现在,我们已经使用2/7的准备时间。你看过多少变化?新的道路,新的地铁线路,public-exercising设备用美丽的色彩,大量的草地上,大量的现代健身房正在建设。
以外,有更加好的效果带给我们不能直接看到的奥运会。例如,越来越多的人了解中国。我相信神秘的中国文化会强烈吸引他们。和奥运会也将做良好的经济和环境,因为这是获得外国投资者的关注和保护环境的意识正在加强。更重要的是,奥运会给一个独特的机会来激励和教育新一代的中国青年奥林匹克精神和奥林匹克精神。现在,我们已经看到这么多的进步,你能想象我们失去控股权利?
我已经说了很多关于奥运会和中国。但我认为每个人都应该用一些时间来思考这个问题,“奥运会有什么特殊意义吗?”
对我们来说,我的意思是中国青年,20xx年奥运会是一个巨大的礼物。因为我们正在等待做一些重要的是偿还给我们的爱。社会就像一艘船,我们的梦想队长挥舞着他的手,说:“嘿!来这里和掌舵!“他的声音有多迷人,但我们从未听说过它在我们的真实生活。然而今天上午,当我们醒来时,我们将看到奥运会挥舞着它的手。咀嚼后,我们大多数人至少都会有一个计划为奥运会做什么。和我的是一个“被子”——这是会安慰别人的人。
在我演讲的最后,我希望所有的准备工作将顺利,每个人都向世界展示他们的能力。让我们抓住机遇,给挑战一个灿烂的微笑。
First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”
Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 20xx Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway lines, public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.
Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances, could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question, ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”
For us, I mean the Chinese youth, 20xx Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us .The society is just like a ship, and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is, but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning, however, when we wake up, we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing, most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ----that is someone who will give comfort to others.
At the end of my speech, I hope all the preparation will go well, and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.
I have a happy family: Has me, daddy, mother. My father is one very strict, but the very humorous person, my mother is also very beautiful, because she likes by the beautiful development at the same time in front of others. They are the merchants, therefore is very busy, but actually very much cared that pays attention to my life and the study. My hobby hits the computer, studies English, plays the piano, I like all with the music related matter, moreover likes in the clear weather the morning taking a walk the seashore. My father daddy likes the outdoor activity, takes a walk and likes in the morning and the evening reads the newspaper, and said frequently with me about the society in the matter! Mother compares likes looking that the television watches the serial TV opera. But she looks like every day is quite busy! looks that father and mother rush about tired, sometimes I how want to make anything for father and mother, but father and mother always say me now most importantly the long spot society experience and the multi-study knowledge! therefore, I thought that now I must study well most importantly, after growing up, give my father mother the happy life.
