How to Be Popular

Most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal.What is the secret to popularity? In fact, it is very simple.The first step is to improve our appearance.We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well.When we are healthy and well-groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better.In addition, we should smile and appear friendly.After all, our facial expression is an important part of our appearance.If we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.Another important step is developing more consideration for others.We should always put others first and place their interests before our own.It's also important to be good listeners;in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us.However, no matter what we do, we must not gossip.Above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies.Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect.If we can do all of the above, I am sure popularity will come our way.如何才能受人歡迎

大部分的人都想受人歡迎，但是并非每個(gè)人都能達(dá)到目標(biāo)。受歡迎的秘訣何在?事實(shí)上是很簡(jiǎn)單的。步驟一，先改善我們的外表。我們得確保自己很健康，并且穿著體面。當(dāng)我們既健康又穿戴整齊時(shí)，不僅看起來(lái)更有精神，自己也會(huì)覺(jué)得好多了。此外，我們要保持微笑并表現(xiàn)得很友善。畢竟，臉部表情是外觀很重要的一環(huán)。如果我們能做到這一點(diǎn)，別人會(huì)被我們的美好外表所吸引，并對(duì)我們的自信印象深刻。另一個(gè)重要步驟，就是培養(yǎng)對(duì)別人的體貼。永遠(yuǎn)以他人為重，并把別人的利益放在自己的利益之前。當(dāng)個(gè)好聽(tīng)眾也是很重要的;如此一來(lái)，別人才能很自在地對(duì)我們吐露心事。然而，不管我們做什么事，絕對(duì)不要說(shuō)閑言閑語(yǔ)。最重要的是，要做自己，不要當(dāng)虛偽的人。只有對(duì)人真誠(chéng)又尊重時(shí)，才能贏得他人的尊敬。如果我們能做到以上幾點(diǎn)，我相信受人歡迎是指日可待的事。

Learn How to Say No

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.學(xué)習(xí)如何說(shuō)不

我們都被教導(dǎo)說(shuō)，我們應(yīng)該要幫助別人。這是應(yīng)該做的事，而且這樣做會(huì)使我們受人歡迎。它甚至?xí)槲覀冓A得一些回報(bào)。但是，我們必須要實(shí)際一點(diǎn)。我們不能答應(yīng)每一個(gè)要求。如果我們這么做，我們就一定會(huì)失敗或發(fā)瘋。有時(shí)候我們確實(shí)沒(méi)有時(shí)間去幫忙。既然如此，我們就必須知道如何有禮貌地說(shuō)不。

當(dāng)我們需要說(shuō)不的時(shí)候，有個(gè)辦法我們可以試試。首先，我們應(yīng)該要說(shuō)實(shí)話。假如我們真的辦不到某件事，我們就應(yīng)該說(shuō)不。第二，我們應(yīng)該記得要客氣地拒絕對(duì)方的要求。我們必須清楚地表達(dá)，但態(tài)度也必須真誠(chéng)并且表示同情。一個(gè)真正的朋友會(huì)諒解的。最后，我們不必為了說(shuō)不而覺(jué)得有罪惡感。有時(shí)候拒絕別人才是我們應(yīng)該做的事。它可以替我們自己和別人，都省下許多麻煩?？偠灾覀儫o(wú)法一直取悅每個(gè)人。拒絕請(qǐng)求是人生的一部分。

How to Sell Yourself

In this competitive society it is essential to know how to sell yourself in order to get the job you want.That means you must be able to market

your best features and present yourself in the best light.After all, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.There are several things you can do to project a good image in an interview.First of all, look like a winner.Dress conservatively and well, and you'll look like you're going to the top.Second, communicate clearly.Consider each question carefully and respond with total honesty.Remember to make eye contact and maintain good posture.You need to look attentive but also at ease.Third, have a positive and assertive attitude.It's important to appear confident of your ability and optimistic about your future.Finally, be prepared.Present a professional resume and be ready to explain everything in detail.By following the advice above, you are bound to make a good impression on potential employers.Then you will be able to choose the best opportunity for you and take that first step towards success.如何自我推銷

在這個(gè)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈的社會(huì)中，為了得到你想要的工作，知道如何自我推銷是很重要的。也就是說(shuō)，你必須能夠銷售你最好的特點(diǎn)，并把你最好的一面呈現(xiàn)出來(lái)。畢竟，第一印象定江山。

要在面試時(shí)表現(xiàn)出好的一面，你可以做幾件事情。首先，要看起來(lái)像個(gè)贏家。穿著保守而體面，會(huì)使你看起來(lái)像是就要成功了。第二，要能清楚地表達(dá)。仔細(xì)地考慮每個(gè)問(wèn)題，并據(jù)實(shí)回答。記得要和對(duì)方有目光接觸，并保持良好的姿勢(shì)。你必須看起來(lái)專注而自在。第三，態(tài)度要積極而有自信。對(duì)你的能力有信心，并對(duì)你的未來(lái)感到樂(lè)觀是很重要的。最后，要充分準(zhǔn)備。遞上一份專業(yè)的簡(jiǎn)歷，并準(zhǔn)備好詳細(xì)解釋每件事。

遵照以上的建議，你就一定會(huì)給可能成為你老板的那些人，留下好的印象。然后你就可以選擇對(duì)你而言最好的機(jī)會(huì)。并踏出邁向成功的第一步。

Responsibility is a Badge of Honour for Youth

Facing this audience on the stage, I have the exciting feeling of participating in the march of history, for what we are facing today is more

than a mere competition or contest.It is an assembly of some of China's most talented and motivated people, representatives of a younger generation that are preparing themselves for the coming of a new century.I'm grateful that I've been given this opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well.Though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still represents, I believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past 15 years.In my elementary years, there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons.The teacher asked me to help her, and it was obvious that she expected a lot from me.but as a young boy, restless, thoughtless, I always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself.One day before the final exam, she came up to me and said, “Could you please explain this to me? I want very much to do better this time.” I started explaining, and finished in a hurry.Pretending not to notice her still confused eyes, I ran off quickly.Nat surprisingly, she again did very badly in the exam.And two months later, at the beginning of the new

semester, word came of her death of blood cancer.No one ever knew about the little task I failed to fulfill, but I couldn't forgive myself.I simply couldn't forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, “Why didn't you do a little more to help me, when it was so easy for you? Why didn't you understand a little better the trust placed in you, so that I would not have to leave this world in such pain and regret?”

I was about eight or nine years old at that time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for I began to understand the word “responsibility” and to learn to always do my duties faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance which are the very foundation of human society.Later in my life, I continued to experience many failures.But never again did I feel that regret which struck me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that I have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best I can.As I grew up, changed and improved by this incident and many other similar ones, I began to perceive the changes taking place around me and to find that society, in a way, was in its formative years like myself.New buildings, new commodities and new fashions appear every day.New ideas, new information, new technologies.People can talk with

each other from any corner of the earth in a matter of seconds.Society is becoming more competitive.Words like individuality and creativity are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and efforts.Such is the era in which this generation ,grows and matures.Such is the era in which this generation will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it.Yet in the meantime, many problems still exist.We learn that crimes take place in broad daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting.We hear that there are still about 1 million children in this country who can't even afford to go to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on dinner parties and luxury cars.We buy shoddy medicines, or merely worthless junk in the name of medicines, that aggravate, rather than alleviate our diseases since money, many people believe, is the most important thing in the world that must be made, even at the expense of morality and responsibility.Such an era, therefore, determines that we are a generation with a keener sense of competition and efficiency and a greater readiness to think critically and act creatively.Such an era, furthermore, demands, that we are a generation with a clear perception of our historical responsibility and an aggressive will to

take action and solve the problems.History has long been preparing these qualities in this generation and it is now calling us forward to give testimony to our patriotism and heroism towards this nation and all humanity.Standing here now, I think of the past 15 years of my life as an ordinary student.Probably I'll be an ordinary man for the rest of my life.But this doesn't discourage me any, for I know that with my sense of responsibility and devoted efforts to always strive, for the best, it's going to be a meaningful and worthwhile life that I will be living.Standing here now, I think of the past 15 years of this nation, which has achieved greatness that inspired millions of people of my age, most of whom will not attain fame or prestige and only a few of whom will be remembered by posterity.But that doesn't discourage us any, because we know that the world watches, the world listens, the world is waiting to see where this nation will be heading in a time of rich opportunities and fierce competition.I can't ever forget that little girl in my class who couldn't had the same opportunities as any of us here to enjoy a wonderful life today and a hopeful world tomorrow.It is the sacred responsibility of this generation to face up to the challenges of the new century and to devote our sweat and blood, our wisdom and passion, to the historic cause of making this nation a greater

and happier land for every one of us.We are not going to evade that responsibility.We are going to let people down.And people, far and near, will hear of us.Frost will be brought to their backbones and tears to their eyes when our stories are told and retold, So let us go forth, my fellow members of this luckily chosen generation, and meet the new century in victory and glory.責(zé)任感——青年人榮譽(yù)的標(biāo)志

站在臺(tái)上面對(duì)大家，我心情十分激動(dòng)。好像是在參加一次歷史性的長(zhǎng)征。我們今天面對(duì)的遠(yuǎn)不只一場(chǎng)競(jìng)賽或角逐。這是才華出眾，生氣勃勃的中國(guó)青年的一次聚會(huì)。我們是青年一代的代表。為迎接新世紀(jì)的到來(lái)，我們正在從各方面作好準(zhǔn)備。

在這一歷史時(shí)刻，能有機(jī)會(huì)代表同齡人在此認(rèn)真地回顧于國(guó)于己都至關(guān)重要的過(guò)去的15年，我感激萬(wàn)分。

盡管只能談?wù)剛€(gè)人經(jīng)歷，而且只涉及其中一個(gè)小小的片段，但我相信，它仍然折射出對(duì)我和在過(guò)去15年間一同成長(zhǎng)起來(lái)的青年人都不可缺少的一種思想基礎(chǔ)。

我上小學(xué)時(shí)，班上有位小姑娘，學(xué)習(xí)非?？炭喽煽?jī)卻不盡人意。

老師要我?guī)椭??？吹贸?，她也寄厚望于我。但我那時(shí)還是個(gè)小男孩，坐不住，不懂事。我老是ME避她。以便有更多時(shí)間自己玩。

期末考試前一天，她來(lái)求我說(shuō)“請(qǐng)你給我講解一下行嗎?這次我很想考得好一點(diǎn)。”我開始給她講解，不一會(huì)兒便草草收?qǐng)?，假裝沒(méi)有察覺(jué)她迷茫的眼神，一溜煙兒地跑開了。不出所料，這次她又考砸了。兩個(gè)月后，新學(xué)期依始，傳來(lái)她死于血癌的消息。我沒(méi)有完成那項(xiàng)小小的任務(wù)，無(wú)人知曉。但我卻不能原諒自己。她的眼睛令我難以忘懷，仿佛在責(zé)問(wèn)我，“你為什么不愿多幫助我呢?這對(duì)于你來(lái)說(shuō)，并不費(fèi)事。你為什么不能理解我對(duì)你的信賴，而讓我?guī)е纯嗪瓦z憾離開這個(gè)世界?”

我當(dāng)時(shí)才八九歲。但從某種意義上講，這件事成了我生活的新起點(diǎn)。因?yàn)槲议_始體會(huì)到“責(zé)任”二字的意義，并盡心盡力地學(xué)著完成自己的義務(wù)。我也逐漸領(lǐng)會(huì)了這個(gè)神圣字眼的深刻內(nèi)含:人與人之間的彼此需要和信任、合作和依賴正是人類社會(huì)存在的基礎(chǔ)。

之后，我在生活中又經(jīng)受過(guò)多次失敗，但那小姑娘之死所引起的懊悔，心里卻不曾再現(xiàn)。想到自己做每一件事都能盡職盡責(zé)，一種滿足之感便油然而生。

此事及類似的多起事件改變了我，完善了我。當(dāng)我長(zhǎng)大成人，我開始領(lǐng)悟周圍發(fā)生的一切變化。我發(fā)現(xiàn)，從某種意義上說(shuō)，社會(huì)跟我一樣，正處在一個(gè)自我完善的時(shí)期。新建筑、新商品、新款式一天一個(gè)樣。新思維、新信息、新技術(shù)層出不窮。即便萬(wàn)里相隔，人們?cè)谵D(zhuǎn)瞬之間即可相互交談。社會(huì)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)越演越烈。

人們?cè)絹?lái)越強(qiáng)調(diào)個(gè)性和創(chuàng)造性。越來(lái)越多的人因工作努力而受到獎(jiǎng)賞。這就是當(dāng)今的時(shí)代，一代新人由成長(zhǎng)邁入成熟的時(shí)代。這是我們這一代人接替父輩治國(guó)安邦的時(shí)代。然而，我們也面臨很多間題。

據(jù)悉，壞人在光天化日之下作惡，周圍的群眾居然袖手旁觀，無(wú)動(dòng)于衷。我還聽(tīng)說(shuō)，目前我國(guó)尚有100萬(wàn)兒童連小學(xué)也上不起，而巨額資金卻拿去舉辦奢侈的宴會(huì)和購(gòu)置豪華的轎車。

我們常常買的是劣質(zhì)藥品，或名曰藥品實(shí)為一文不值的廢物，非但不能除病去痛，反而會(huì)使病情加重。在某些人看來(lái)，世上金錢最寶貴，只要能賺錢，不惜犧牲道德和責(zé)任。

因而，這個(gè)時(shí)代賦予我們的是更強(qiáng)烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)和效率意識(shí)，使我們更善于批判性地思考和創(chuàng)造性地行動(dòng)。

此外，這個(gè)時(shí)代要求我們這一代人必須認(rèn)清自己肩負(fù)的歷史重任，下定決心，采取行動(dòng)，解決上述問(wèn)題。

長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)，歷史一直在我們這一代人身上培養(yǎng)著這些品質(zhì)。現(xiàn)在，歷史呼喚我們挺身而出，以實(shí)際行動(dòng)向全民族及全人類證實(shí)我們的拳拳愛(ài)國(guó)之心和大無(wú)畏的英雄主義。

此刻，我站在講臺(tái)上回顧15年來(lái)的學(xué)生生活。今后的歲月，我很可能平平淡淡地度過(guò)。但這絲毫不會(huì)讓我心灰意冷。因?yàn)槲抑?，憑借強(qiáng)烈的責(zé)任感和精益求精的不懈奮斗，我將追求一種有意義的生活，一種不枉此生的生活。

此刻，我站在講臺(tái)上回顧過(guò)去，15年來(lái)祖國(guó)取得的巨大成就激勵(lì)著千千萬(wàn)萬(wàn)的同齡人。我們之中大多數(shù)人將與名利和權(quán)力無(wú)緣。只有極少數(shù)人或許會(huì)后世留芳。對(duì)此我們絲毫也不會(huì)在意。因?yàn)槲覀冎?，世界在觀望，世界在傾聽(tīng)。在這個(gè)大量機(jī)遇和激烈竟?fàn)幉⒋娴臅r(shí)代，我們國(guó)家究竟去向何方，整個(gè)世界都在關(guān)注。

我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)忘記班上那位小姑娘。她本應(yīng)該卻沒(méi)能和在座各位一樣享受今天美好的人生和明日充滿希望的世界。

接受新世紀(jì)的挑戰(zhàn)，把我們的血汗、智慧和熱情奉獻(xiàn)給建設(shè)祖國(guó)、造福人民的偉大歷史事業(yè)。這就是我們這一代人的神圣職責(zé)。

我們決不逃避責(zé)任，決不辜負(fù)人民的期望。我們的業(yè)績(jī)將四海傳揚(yáng)。我們的故事將被反復(fù)講述，定會(huì)令人驚嘆不已，以至熱淚盈眶。

有幸與時(shí)代為伍的朋友們，讓我們勇往直前，以勝利的姿態(tài)迎接光輝燦爛的新世紀(jì)的來(lái)臨!Knowing the Consequences of Choice

Over the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute.Right before I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channels we had already had.In prime time at night, they all had interesting shows.Therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and I-had to argue over what to watch.Finally, we agreed that we should watch the “most interesting” programme...If we could agree what that was.However, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had TV, there were only one or two channels available.The increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.Fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one colour.Today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.Fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers.Today, we read English

newspapers like the China Daily and the 21st Century, as well as various Chinese newspapers.Fifteen years ago, English majors took only courses in language and literature.Today, we also study Western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.The emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in China's history;an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the Chinese nation.We enjoy the abundance of choice.But this has not come easily.About 150 years ago, China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats.It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves.The policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.Like others of my age, I'm too young to have experienced the time when the Chinese people had no right to choose.However, as the next century draws near, it is time to ask: What does choice really mean to us young people?

Is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? Is choice an empty promise that never materializes? Or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?

First, I would like to say: To choose means to claim opportunities.I am a third-year English major.An important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation.I can go to graduate school, at home or abroad.I can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat.Actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in China.Indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice.I would love to work in such big cities as Beijing or Shanghai or Shenzhen.I would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development.I would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced.I would also love to put down roots in central and western China, which is underdeveloped, but holds great potential.All of these sound good.But they are only possibilities.To those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, I would like to say: To choose means to accept challenge.To us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition.In the next century, competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins.With increasing international exchanges, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world.This is calling for a higher level of our personal development.Fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage.But today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone.Given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination.As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.As we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.Nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life.But it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions.Economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health.To those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, I would like to say, To choose means to take responsibility.When we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: “It's just my own business.” As policy makers of the next century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us.The traditional Chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family.To me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programmes.Rather, it is the

whole of the human family.As I am making my choices, I will not forget the smile of my teacher when I correctly spelled out the word “China” for the first time, I will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of Jiangxi Province.I will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in Bosnia, Chechnya and Somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty.All these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family.At different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective.Now as I am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it can lead a peaceful and prosperous life.選擇的重要性

去年春節(jié)期間，我陷入過(guò)一場(chǎng)家庭紛爭(zhēng)。在我回家之前，我們家的電視除了已有的14個(gè)頻道外又增加了四個(gè)衛(wèi)星頻道。晚上的黃金時(shí)間，每個(gè)頻道的節(jié)目都很精彩.結(jié)果，我們一家五口(父母，兩個(gè)姐姐和我)為了選臺(tái)而爭(zhēng)執(zhí)起來(lái)。最后，我們決定應(yīng)當(dāng)看“最有意思”的節(jié)目——如果我們?cè)谑裁词恰白钣幸馑肌鄙峡梢哉J(rèn)同的話。

不過(guò)我們?nèi)记宄赜浀茫I了電視后的好長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間里，只有一兩個(gè)頻道可供選擇。電視頻道的增多反映出我們生活中的一個(gè)重大變化:選擇余地的擴(kuò)大。

15年前，我們身著同樣的款式，單一的色調(diào)。而如今，紛繁的花色和眾多的式樣讓我們挑得眼花繚亂。

15年前，我們幾乎無(wú)報(bào)可讀。而如今，除了大大小小的中文報(bào)紙，我們還讀上了《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》、《21世紀(jì)報(bào)》這樣的英文報(bào)紙。

15年前，英語(yǔ)專業(yè)的學(xué)生只能選語(yǔ)言與文學(xué)課程。而如今，我們還學(xué)習(xí)西方文化，新聞，商務(wù)，國(guó)際關(guān)系，甚至還有計(jì)算機(jī)課程。

選擇的涌現(xiàn)標(biāo)志著中國(guó)進(jìn)入了一個(gè)嶄新的時(shí)代，一個(gè)充滿多樣化的時(shí)代，一個(gè)物質(zhì)與精神都愈加豐富的時(shí)代，一個(gè)中華民族獲得新生的時(shí)代。

我們?yōu)檫x擇之多而歡呼雀躍，同時(shí)也深深地感到這一切來(lái)之不易。

一個(gè)半世紀(jì)之前，在西方大炮、戰(zhàn)艦的威通下，中國(guó)被迫打開了國(guó)門。經(jīng)過(guò)祖祖輩輩的抗?fàn)幣c犧牲，我們才最終贏得了當(dāng)家作主的機(jī)會(huì)。改革開放這個(gè)正確的抉擇使一切發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化。

我和其他同齡人一樣，太年輕了、沒(méi)有經(jīng)歷過(guò)中國(guó)人喪失選擇權(quán)的歲月。但是，隨著下個(gè)世紀(jì)的腳步越走越近，我們是該們心自間了:選擇，對(duì)于我們青年一代，到底意味著什么?

選擇，是場(chǎng)靠?jī)e幸來(lái)獲勝的游戲嗎?是句不用兌現(xiàn)的空話嗎?抑或是種讓人知難而退的困境?

首先，我認(rèn)為，選擇意味著抓住機(jī)遇。

我是英語(yǔ)專業(yè)三年級(jí)學(xué)生，我所面臨的一個(gè)重大選擇當(dāng)然是畢業(yè)后的去向。我可以攻讀碩士學(xué)位，或

在國(guó)內(nèi)，或在國(guó)外。我可以走上工作崗位，做名教師，翻譯，記者，編輯或外交家.實(shí)際上，雙向選擇的體制在我面前鋪開了通向各行各業(yè)的大道。

說(shuō)真的，這個(gè)選擇并不好做。我愿意在像北京、上海、深圳這樣的大都市里工作，我也盼著能回到雖不那么發(fā)達(dá)卻使我倍感親切的故鄉(xiāng)。我希望可以留在生活節(jié)奏快，令人興奮的沿海地帶，我也愿意扎根于廣炭的中西部地區(qū)，那里雖然條件艱苦，卻有極大的發(fā)展?jié)摿Α?/p>

所有這一切聽(tīng)上去令人振奮，但它們畢竟只是可能性。有些人面對(duì)五花八門的選擇挑得眼花繚亂，我要告訴他們:選擇就意味著接受挑戰(zhàn)。

對(duì)于我們青年一代，挑戰(zhàn)常以竟?fàn)幍男问匠霈F(xiàn)。到下個(gè)世紀(jì)，競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者將不僅只是其他大學(xué)畢業(yè)生，更有各行各業(yè)不同年齡層的人們。

隨著國(guó)際交流的不斷增多，我們得面對(duì)來(lái)自整個(gè)外部世界日益激烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，這就對(duì)我們個(gè)/、的發(fā)展提出了更高的要求。

15年前，懂門外語(yǔ)或會(huì)用計(jì)算機(jī)是個(gè)優(yōu)越條件。但今天，隨著受教育面的拓寬，以上的知識(shí)也成了每個(gè)人必備的條件。

在這種形勢(shì)下，即便最細(xì)小的選擇也要求我們具有極大的智慧和自主精神。

當(dāng)我們面對(duì)選擇不斷增強(qiáng)自己的主動(dòng)性時(shí)，每一次選擇的結(jié)果也同樣變得愈加重要。比方說(shuō)，核能可以提高人民的生活水平，可它同樣也能毀滅千百萬(wàn)人的生命財(cái)產(chǎn)。

經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展使我們富裕起來(lái)，卻也給我們的空氣、水、健康帶來(lái)了嚴(yán)重危害。有些人對(duì)選擇的后果毫不在乎，我要對(duì)他們說(shuō):選擇還意味著承擔(dān)責(zé)任。我們替自己做選擇時(shí)，不能隨口一句“這不關(guān)別人的事”。作為下個(gè)世紀(jì)的決策者，我們必須承擔(dān)對(duì)和我們共同擁有這個(gè)地球的人們所負(fù)的責(zé)任。

傳統(tǒng)的中華文化教育我們，要勃奮學(xué)習(xí)，努力工作，以榮耀家門。然而我認(rèn)為，這個(gè)家門并不只指諸如我的那個(gè)爭(zhēng)看電視的五口小家。更確切地說(shuō)，它指的是整個(gè)人類這個(gè)大家庭。當(dāng)我為自己的未來(lái)做出選擇時(shí)，我不會(huì)忘記自己第一次正確讀出“China“這個(gè)單詞時(shí)老師臉上的笑容。我也不會(huì)忘記在我們的幫助下重返校園的江西山區(qū)的孩子們興奮的臉龐。我更不會(huì)忘記飽受戰(zhàn)火、饑荒、貧困蹂蹦的波斯尼亞、車臣、索馬里，不會(huì)忘記那里成千上萬(wàn)的婦女兒童淚水模糊的雙眼。

所有這些我認(rèn)識(shí)或不認(rèn)識(shí)的人們組成了人類這個(gè)大家庭。他們從不同的時(shí)空中走進(jìn)了我的生活，開拓了我的視野?，F(xiàn)在，我將為自己做出抉擇，該是為使他們的生活變得美好而奮斗的時(shí)候了。因?yàn)橹挥挟?dāng)每個(gè)人都過(guò)上和平、富足的生活，世界才能成為大家的樂(lè)園.I Regain Confidence

I received a devastating blow to my self-confidence in the first interview of my college years.I applied to be a host in our Student Acting Troupe and felt confident that I would be accepted.But one of the panel members told me: ”You seem inadequate and you are a little vertically-challenged.“ My life has never been the same since.I used bigger heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence.But no matter how hard I tried to look the part, there was still something missing.As president of English Club, I organized the rehearsal of Snow White for an English party.Unfortunately, we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf.It had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in English.Suddenly, all eyes turned to me, and I knew I would have to be the dwarf.To my great surprise and delight, once on stage, I was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use.As the dwarf, I was a big hit.Yes, each of us is only one among millions of others, but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique.Cultivating our individuality will transform our lives, making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures.A world deprived of diversity would be a bland and boring place.The real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly, but having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model cool boy or a flawless charming girl.Given a choice, I would rather be ugly than live in such a world.I'd rather be a genuine dwarf accompanying a Snow White than be a Snow White among nothing but Snow Whites.I would rather be myself.I would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more diverse universe.Please, be yourself.譯文:我重樹信心

大學(xué)生活的幾年里，當(dāng)我參加第一次面試時(shí)，我的自信心受到了沉重的打擊。我向“學(xué)生劇團(tuán)”申請(qǐng)出演一個(gè)主角，而且我十分自信地認(rèn)為我會(huì)被錄用。但是,其中有個(gè)劇團(tuán)成員告訴我:“你似乎不太合適出演這個(gè)角色，因?yàn)槟愕纳砀哂悬c(diǎn)問(wèn)題?！蔽覐奈从龅竭^(guò)這種情況。我穿著高跟鞋來(lái)彌補(bǔ)我的身高，采用心理策

略和技巧來(lái)掩蓋自己信心的缺乏。但是，不論我怎樣努力進(jìn)入角色，感覺(jué)還是缺少些什么。

作為英語(yǔ)俱樂(lè)部的主席，我為英語(yǔ)晚會(huì)組織排演了《白雪公主》短劇。不幸的是，我們找不到合適的人選出演最后一個(gè)小矮人。這個(gè)角色必須生性幽默，英語(yǔ)流利。突然，所有人的目光都轉(zhuǎn)向了我，我知道那個(gè)小矮人就是我了。讓我極度奇怪而又高興的是，一上臺(tái)，我完全投入到演出中，而且我那幽默的天性被發(fā)揮得淋漓盡致。作為一個(gè)‘’小矮人”，我取得了巨大的成功。的確，我們中的任何一個(gè)人都是千百萬(wàn)中的一員，但我們中的每個(gè)人都是一個(gè)與眾不同的個(gè)體。發(fā)揮我們自己的個(gè)性會(huì)改變我們的生活，使它們成為美麗的萬(wàn)花筒。

失去了多樣性的世界是個(gè)冷漠、乏味的地方。真正的悲劇不是個(gè)矮、害羞或丑陋，而是將自己的個(gè)性迷失在一個(gè)克隆的世界里，那里到處都是典型的酷男孩或無(wú)瑕、迷人的好姑娘。

如果讓我選擇，我寧可面貌五陋，也不愿生活在這樣一個(gè)世界里。我寧可做一個(gè)伴隨“白雪公主”的真實(shí)的小矮人，也不愿做“白雪公主”世界里的一個(gè)白雪公主，而隨波逐流。我寧可作為一個(gè)真實(shí)的自我而出現(xiàn)。我愿將自己獨(dú)特的、與眾不同的色彩奉獻(xiàn)給多姿多彩的世界?！白咦约旱穆?，讓別人去說(shuō)吧!”

Enjoy Yourself While Fulfilling Responsibility

In my 18 years of life, there have been many things.University days are the best part of them.I can never forget the days when I stepped into my university.I was impressed by its garden-like campus, its enthusiastic students and especially its learning atmosphere.I at once fell in love with it.After the arduous military training, I get absolutely absorbed in my studies.The classes given by the teachers are excellent.They provide us with information not only from our textbooks but from many other sources as well.They easily arouse my insatiable desire to take in as much as I can.Frankly speaking, at first I had some difficulty following the teachers.However, through my own efforts and thanks to my teachers' guidance, I made remarkable progress.Now I've benefited a lot from lectures and many other academic reports.Learning is a long process;I'll keep exploring in the treasure house

of knowledge to enrich myself.This summer I got out of the ivory tower and entered the real world.A publishing house offered me a part-time job in compilation and revision.At the beginning I was belittled by my colleagues.But they were really surprised when I translated seven English articles over 5,000 words on only one day.Gradually, they began to look at me with respectful eyes.In their opinion I turned out to be a useful and trustworthy colleague.I also realize that only those who bring happiness for others can be truly happy.So I often take part in activities concerning public welfare.I once went to a barren mountain village with my classmates.We taught the kids there who could not afford school.While showing them how broad and how civilized the outer world is, I was deeply touched by their eagerness to learn, their honesty and their purity.I couldn't control my tears on the day when we left.The precious experience with the poor kids made me aware of the responsibility on the shoulders of us, future teachers.Besides study and social practice, there are entertainments as well.I do body building every day, hoping to keep healthy and energetic.We also write a play and put it on in our spare time.Campus life is the most splendid time.But different people have different choices.The majority of students cherish their beautiful season and cherish the hope that one day they'll become outstanding.But there

are indeed some students still under ignorance.They gather together for eating, drinking or playing cards.They're busy in searching for a girlfriend or a boyfriend.They forget completely about their mission as college students and the hope of their motherland.Finally, I do hope everybody can try their best to become a worthy citizen of the country.I do hope everybody can become the backbone of our nation and make great contributions to society!譯文:享受生活、牢記使命

在我這18年的生命中，有著許多美好的經(jīng)歷，而大學(xué)生活則是其中最難忘的一段。我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)忘記剛剛跨進(jìn)大學(xué)校園的那幾天:花園一樣的校園，熱情活躍的學(xué)生，特別是那里的學(xué)習(xí)氣氛，給我留下了深刻的印象。

經(jīng)過(guò)了一段艱辛的軍事訓(xùn)練后，我完全融入到了學(xué)習(xí)中。老師的講課真是棒極了。他們傳授給我們的不僅是課本上的知識(shí)，還包括其他各種各樣的信息。我渴望獲得盡可能多的知識(shí)，是老師激發(fā)起了我這個(gè)不能滿足的欲望。

坦率地說(shuō)，一開始我還不能跟上老師的講課。但是，通過(guò)我自己的努力以及老師的指導(dǎo)，我取得了巨大的進(jìn)步。我從老師的授課和其他許多學(xué)術(shù)報(bào)告中獲益匪淺。

學(xué)習(xí)是個(gè)循序漸進(jìn)、長(zhǎng)期的過(guò)程，我會(huì)在知識(shí)的寶庫(kù)中不斷探索，豐富自我。今年暑假，我跨出象牙塔，進(jìn)入并接觸到了真正的社會(huì)。一個(gè)出版社給了我編輯和校對(duì)的兼職工作。

工作初期，同事們都礁不起我。但是，當(dāng)我在一天之內(nèi)翻譯完7篇(總字?jǐn)?shù)超過(guò)5000字)的英語(yǔ)文章后，他們真的是

大吃一驚。漸漸地，他們開始用尊敬的眼光看待我。他們認(rèn)為，我變成了一個(gè)有用并值得信賴的好同事。

我也同樣意識(shí)到，只有那些為別人帶來(lái)幸福的人才能真正的幸福。因而，我經(jīng)常參加有關(guān)公眾福利享業(yè)的活動(dòng)。有一次，我和同學(xué)去了一個(gè)貧痔的山區(qū)村莊。在那里，我們教那些沒(méi)錢上學(xué)的孩子。我向他們展示了一幅寬廣、文明的外部世界的畫面，但同時(shí)我也被那些孩子學(xué)習(xí)的渴望、他們的真誠(chéng)和純潔深深打動(dòng)了。在我們離開的那一天，我那不爭(zhēng)氣的眼淚禁不住流了下來(lái)。這次珍貴的經(jīng)歷讓我們這些未來(lái)的教師意識(shí)到了自己肩上的責(zé)任重大。

除了學(xué)習(xí)和社會(huì)實(shí)踐，我還經(jīng)常參加娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)。我每天都鍛煉身體，希望保持健康和充滿活力。我們還在業(yè)余時(shí)間寫劇本并排練演出。

園生活是最豐富多彩的。但是，不同的人有著不同的選擇。大多數(shù)的學(xué)生珍惜他們的美好時(shí)光，并殷切希望將來(lái)能出類拔萃?？墒?，的確有學(xué)生無(wú)動(dòng)于衷。他們聚在一起吃喝玩樂(lè);他們忙于追求異性朋友;他們完全忘記了自己作為大學(xué)生的使命和祖國(guó)對(duì)他們的厚望。

最后，我希望每個(gè)人都能盡最大努力成為國(guó)家的有用人才。我也希望每個(gè)人都能成為我們民族的脊梁，為社會(huì)做出巨大的貢獻(xiàn)!Nature Is Our Mother

Let me begin my speech with a replay of scenes familiar to most, if not

all, of those present here today.”Mum, I'm sorry, but I need 3,000 yuan for my tuition this year.“

”Mum, it is my friend's birthday tomorrow, I must buy her a present.“

”Mum, this jacket was out of fashion long ago, would you do me a favor? “ Take.Take.Take.The relationship between a mother and a child always seems to follow such a pattern.I know my mother is always there for me, providing me with everything I need;from food to clothing, from tuition to pocket money.I never thought twice about all she did until one day she said, ”Will there be a time that you'll say you have taken enough from me? “

Like a child endlessly asking, we humans, throughout history, have been continually demanding what we desire from nature.We enjoy the comfort and beauty of our furniture, yet we never bother to think about the serious soil erosion caused by deforestation.We take it for granted that we must warm ourselves in winter times, yet we seldom realize the burning away of precious natural resources.We appreciate all the prosperity from the development of modern industry, yet few would give the slightest consideration to the global air and water pollution caused by industrial wastes.Our ruthless exploitation has permanently impaired our mother earth.As we tragically learned from last summer's floods.we cannot continue our carelessness.Finally, standing here at the threshold of the 21st century, we cannot help thinking of our posterity.Nature is not only the mother of the present generation, but also the mother of the generations to come.How severely our descendents will criticize us if we leave them a barren and lifeless mother? How much more they will appreciate us if we give them a world of harmony to inherit? Let us start respecting and caring for nature from now on.Let us start the campaign of creating a mutually beneficial relationship between people and nature right from this moment.With this new start, I firmly believe, that our children, and our children's children will live in a brand new age of green trees, clean air, crystal water, blue sky and an even more promising world!自然是我們的母親

請(qǐng)?jiān)试S我用一個(gè)我們今天在座的大部分人，就算不是全部，都很熟悉的場(chǎng)景來(lái)展開我的演講。

“媽媽，不好意思，今年的學(xué)費(fèi)要三千元?！?/p>

“媽媽，明天是我朋友的生日，我要給她買份禮物?！?/p>

“媽媽，這件衣服早過(guò)時(shí)了，幫我買件新的，好嗎?”

索取，索取，再索取。母親和孩子的關(guān)系似乎永遠(yuǎn)都是這一種形式。我知道母親總是我的靠山，給我一切需要的東西，從食物到衣服，從學(xué)費(fèi)到零用錢。我覺(jué)得她所做的一切都是理所當(dāng)然的，直到有一天，她說(shuō):“會(huì)不會(huì)有這么一天你對(duì)我說(shuō)我已經(jīng)索取夠了?’’

就像孩子無(wú)止境的要求一樣，我們?nèi)祟悾瑥墓诺浇瘢惨恢痹谙蜃匀凰髑笠詽M足欲望。我們享受家具的美麗與舒適，但我們從來(lái)就不愿去想一想由于采伐樹林而引起的嚴(yán)重的土壤侵蝕問(wèn)題。我們認(rèn)為冬天要取暖是理所當(dāng)然的事情，卻未曾意識(shí)到寶貴的自然資源就這樣被燒掉。我們高興地看到現(xiàn)代工業(yè)發(fā)展帶來(lái)了繁榮，但很少人會(huì)對(duì)由于工業(yè)廢物導(dǎo)致的全球空氣和水質(zhì)污染問(wèn)題稍加考慮。我們無(wú)情的剝削已經(jīng)永遠(yuǎn)地傷害了地球母親。我們從去年夏天的洪災(zāi)悲劇中已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到，我們不能再繼續(xù)漠不關(guān)心下去了。

最后，站在21世紀(jì)的門檻上，我們不禁展望著繁榮昌盛。自然不僅是現(xiàn)在這一代人的母親，更是未來(lái)一代人的母親。如果我們留給他們的是一位貧瘩、毫無(wú)生氣的母親，那么我們會(huì)受到子孫們何等嚴(yán)厲的批評(píng)?如果我們留給他們的遺產(chǎn)是一個(gè)和諧的世界，他們會(huì)對(duì)我們作出何等的稱贊?讓我們從現(xiàn)在開始尊重、關(guān)愛(ài)自然。讓我們立刻開展一場(chǎng)建立人類與自然互惠互利關(guān)系的運(yùn)動(dòng)。我堅(jiān)信，有了這個(gè)新的開始，我們的孩子、孩子的孩子必將生活在一個(gè)綠樹青蔥、空氣清新、水碧天藍(lán)的嶄新世紀(jì)，一個(gè)前景更加燦爛的世界!We Are a Normal Member of the Big Family of Nature

Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.Today，we are gathering here

to discuss a very hot issue.how to find harmony in a new age between man and nature? Where modern science and technology are concerned I am only a layman I have to say.However, living in this ”new age“ , seeing my dear ones suffering from respiratory diseases from time to time, finding the beautiful colors of green and blue are being replaced by that of gray and pale, and realizing that our mother planet is getting more and more unhealthy;I can't help trying to offer my idea and my trivial efforts to look for the answer of the question.As the ancient Greek oracle goes: know thyself.I think in answering this above-mentioned question, this precondition is also very important.Who are we? This is a question, which should be answered not only by those specialists, but also by every one of human beings.Some people may proudly say: we are the masters of nature.It is true that the idea of ”man can conquer nature“ has dominated people's mind for years, and it is true, man has kept acting like a master and doing whatever things he wants for thousands of years.However, as the consequence of this kind of ”leadership“ , now the ”master“ seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyond his control.Facts are really very ample.The green house effect leaves islands and cities along the coast, such as this oriental pearl-Shanghai, in danger of the disaster of being drowned;the holes of the ozone layer make the earth less suitable to live for some

creatures including human beings;the phenomena of EL Nino and La Nina leave the land with serious flood and drought, and the diseases, caused by pollution, are increasing at an incredible speed...Seeing all these facts, can we still ignore the counterattack of nature? We are not the masters of nature.Facing all the disasters made by ourselves, we, mankind as a whole should realize that we are just a normal member of the big family of nature.Any mistreatment towards nature will meet only with the revenge from her.By saying so, I do not mean we should give a sudden stop to any development.Because that will result in a threat to the existence of human society.I mean we should treat nature equally, leaving the chance of existence and development to nature as we are obtaining the same thing, and thus we will get the situation of win-win.I am very pleased to find that now more and more people, from every corner of the planet, have come to realize that harmony with nature is the only way to universal and continuous progress and prosperity.And I think that is why we come here from all over the country to discuss this topic today.I want to end my speech by quoting from Mr.Nixon.”O(jiān)ur destiny offers, not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.“ The future is not ours to see of course.However, by seizing firmly the opportunities, by knowing clearly about ourselves, we, human beings, can doubtlessly

achieve the real harmony with nature!Thank you.譯文:我們只是自然大家庭中普通的一員

尊敬的評(píng)委，女士們、先生們。今天我們聚在一起討論一個(gè)熱門的話題:如何在新時(shí)代找到人與自然的和諧?談到科學(xué)技術(shù)，我必須承認(rèn)，我是個(gè)門外漢。但是，生活在這個(gè)“新時(shí)代”，看著自己親愛(ài)的人時(shí)刻遭受呼吸疾病的折磨，看著美麗的藍(lán)色和綠色被灰色和蒼白所代替，意識(shí)到我們的地球母親正越來(lái)越不健康，我忍不住要提出自己的主張，奉獻(xiàn)微薄的力量，去尋找這一問(wèn)題的答案。

古希臘有這樣一個(gè)神諭:了解自己。我想在回答上述的問(wèn)題時(shí)，這一先決條件是很重要的。我們是誰(shuí)?這是一個(gè)間題，不僅應(yīng)由專家來(lái)回答，而且應(yīng)該由每一個(gè)人來(lái)回答。

也許有人會(huì)自豪地說(shuō):我們是自然的主人。許多年來(lái)，“人定勝天”這一觀念已在許多人心中根深蒂固，這是事實(shí)。長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)，人類以主人的姿態(tài)隨心所欲、為所欲為，這也是事實(shí)。不過(guò)，這種“主導(dǎo)”的后果是，今天所謂的“主人”面臨著自己無(wú)法控制的問(wèn)題。證據(jù)是充足的。溫室效應(yīng)使島嶼和沿海城市，比如上海這顆東方明珠等，處于被海水侵吞的災(zāi)難危機(jī)之中;臭氧層的空洞使得地球不再適宜于居住，對(duì)其他動(dòng)物如此，對(duì)人類也一樣;厄爾尼諾現(xiàn)象和拉尼那現(xiàn)象使地球早澇成災(zāi);污染所導(dǎo)致的疾病正以驚人的速度傳播著??看到這些現(xiàn)象，我們還能無(wú)視這自然的反擊嗎?我們不是自然的主人。面對(duì)著自己造成的災(zāi)難，我們，整個(gè)人類，應(yīng)該意識(shí)到我們只是自然大家族中普通的一員。任何對(duì)自然的虐待只能遭到來(lái)自自然的報(bào)復(fù)。

我這樣說(shuō)，并不是指我們應(yīng)該馬上停止發(fā)展。因?yàn)檫@會(huì)導(dǎo)致對(duì)人類社會(huì)生存的威脅。我指的是我們應(yīng)該平等地對(duì)待自然，給自然以生存和發(fā)展的機(jī)會(huì)，就像我們自身所尋求的一樣。只有這樣，我們才會(huì)有一個(gè)皆大歡喜的境況。

我很高興地發(fā)現(xiàn)來(lái)自地球各個(gè)地方的越來(lái)越多的人，正逐步意識(shí)到與自然的和諧是不斷繁榮進(jìn)步的出路。這就是今天我們從全國(guó)吝地匯集在此討論這一話題的原因。

我想引用尼克松先生的話來(lái)結(jié)束我的發(fā)言:“我們的命運(yùn)給予的不是失望之杯，是機(jī)遇之博?！碑?dāng)然，未來(lái)不是我們能夠預(yù)測(cè)的。不過(guò)，緊緊抓住機(jī)遇，清楚地了解自己，我們?nèi)祟?，就一定能達(dá)成與自然的和楷，謝謝。

My Definition of Success

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 these children.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!譯文:成功之我見(jiàn)

用金錢、名譽(yù)和聲望來(lái)描述成功，這很簡(jiǎn)單。但我相信成功不是外在的，我相信成功來(lái)源于自身。我對(duì)成功的定義是對(duì)已誠(chéng)實(shí)，待人真誠(chéng)。這就意味著即使面臨困境厄運(yùn)，你都必須堅(jiān)守自己的理想。我同樣相信成功沒(méi)有偏見(jiàn)，成功不屬于某一類人，事實(shí)上，不論種族、宗教信仰、性別和經(jīng)濟(jì)背景，任何人都能夠獲得。貝多芬的成功就是個(gè)很好的例子。他是世界上最著名的作曲家之一，而他卻雙耳失聰。他無(wú)法聽(tīng)到自己創(chuàng)作出的美妙樂(lè)章。然而，身

處如此逆境，他仍然能夠堅(jiān)持自己的理想——作曲。

為了舉例說(shuō)明我對(duì)成功的理解，我想給在座的諸位提一個(gè)問(wèn)題。是什么讓我們大家今天在此相會(huì)?我想是語(yǔ)言世界的美麗讓我們走到了一起。停頓的效果和修辭之聲是話語(yǔ)世界所獨(dú)一無(wú)二的。我相信那些說(shuō)話表達(dá)困難的人們對(duì)話語(yǔ)世界中的美麗體會(huì)得更為深刻。這些人都隱遁世間，把自己的感情深藏于心。我曾經(jīng)去過(guò)澳大利亞，在那里看到了兩幅畫。一幅是正常兒童畫的，另一幅是一個(gè)社會(huì)生活受限制的孩子畫的。正常的孩子畫的畫簡(jiǎn)單、樸素，而另一幅卻貼近現(xiàn)實(shí)生活，充滿了細(xì)節(jié)和想象。這表明這些孩子的思想、情緒和感受都封閉在他們的內(nèi)心深處。

我的理想是成為向這些孩子傳播話語(yǔ)世界美好的鑰匙。這些孩子曾被我們忽視，但我覺(jué)得我能夠也應(yīng)該幫助他們發(fā)現(xiàn)和認(rèn)識(shí)自己，并且能夠表達(dá)自己的想法。

我知道這是個(gè)艱巨的任務(wù)，實(shí)現(xiàn)起來(lái)會(huì)遇到許多困難和障礙。但我篤信自己的理想，并將堅(jiān)守下去——即使逆境重重。我們千萬(wàn)不能對(duì)一個(gè)理想作出不成熟的棄絕決定——讓這些孩子，讓我們的理想經(jīng)受挑戰(zhàn)。因?yàn)?，沒(méi)有理想的生活是沒(méi)有生氣的。謝謝!My Definition of Success

“Once upon a time，there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose.To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible.One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince...” Well, you know the rest.The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand

triumphantly.And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line “And they live happily every after.” Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story.It is highly philosophical and symbolic.By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1)a goal to be set.as represented by the beautiful princess;2)challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks;3)the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through;and 4)the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result.The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa.If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence.The term “success”, to be sure.will not sit still for easy definition.But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor.To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings.If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared.In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value.The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative.Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person.In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success.That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this.I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties.Now here I am.If I come out first, it will be a great success for me.If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I

come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties.For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success.You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties.The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.Thank you.譯文:成功之我見(jiàn)

“很久以前，有個(gè)國(guó)王，他的女兒貌美如花。老國(guó)王向所有來(lái)求婚的男士提出了三個(gè)任務(wù)作為挑戰(zhàn)，而每一項(xiàng)任務(wù)都異常艱巨，幾乎不可能完成。一天，來(lái)了一位年輕英俊的王子??”好了，下面的故事你們都知道了。三項(xiàng)任務(wù)在不同的版本中各不相同，但關(guān)鍵部分的情節(jié)都如出一轍:王子成功地過(guò)關(guān)，得到了公主的芳心。而故事的結(jié)局也都一樣，最后一句都寫道:“從此他們幸福地生活在一起。

為什么我們對(duì)如此美妙、如此不切實(shí)際,而我要說(shuō),如此缺乏想象力的東西這么樂(lè)此不疲呢?這樣的故事又如何能夠經(jīng)歷幾代人的重復(fù)?我想，因?yàn)樗堑湫偷某晒Φ睦?。故事的思想性很?qiáng)，具有代表性。通過(guò)故事帶給我們的啟示，我們認(rèn)識(shí)到了成功定義中的四個(gè)步驟;第一，目標(biāo)的設(shè)定，有如故事里美麗的公主;第二，所遇到的困難和挑戰(zhàn)，就像三大任務(wù);第三，克服困難的過(guò)程，故事中青年經(jīng)歷重重難關(guān)可以作為象征;第四，就是成功的果實(shí)，如同幸福的婚姻。

這個(gè)故事不僅迎合了人們內(nèi)心深處對(duì)成功的向往，也強(qiáng)調(diào)了過(guò)程和結(jié)果的不可分離。如果通往成功的道路崎嶇曲折，那么成功的回報(bào)必然碩果累累，反之亦然。如果一個(gè)人繼承了父輩的百萬(wàn)家產(chǎn)而生活得輕松富足，那么，即使在物質(zhì)上，他也不能算是個(gè)成功人士，因?yàn)椋呢?cái)富并沒(méi)有經(jīng)過(guò)艱難困苦而獲得。確切地說(shuō)，“成功”這個(gè)詞，不是個(gè)靜態(tài)簡(jiǎn)單的定義。在我的理解中，真正意義上的成功是奮斗的過(guò)程和經(jīng)歷了奮斗之后贏得的滿意的結(jié)果。請(qǐng)讓我另舉一例來(lái)闡明我的見(jiàn)解。

如果我們?cè)囍淖冏闱虻谋荣愐?guī)則，將球門放得很大，換下大衛(wèi)?希曼或其他任何的守門員，這樣，隨便哪個(gè)“大衛(wèi)”，比如說(shuō)，“大衛(wèi)?貝克漢姆”，就可以輕松進(jìn)球，然而這樣進(jìn)一球卻不能給他帶來(lái)成功的震顫與喜悅。如果我們?cè)俑囊桓谋荣愐?guī)則，不讓阿森納隊(duì)的防守來(lái)守門，那么，貝克漢姆只要?jiǎng)觿?dòng)手，其實(shí)就是抬抬腳就能進(jìn)一球，那樣的話、，實(shí)際上也沒(méi)有什么比賽可言了，因?yàn)橼A球的意義已經(jīng)不存在了。在接受挑戰(zhàn)、克服困難和經(jīng)歷磨難的過(guò)程中，“成功”的價(jià)值才得以豐滿。取得成果的意義和所克服的艱難的程

度成正比。所謂成功的概念不是一成不變的.而曇相對(duì)而言的,因?yàn)槔щy的性質(zhì)也是相對(duì)意義上的。

正常人不費(fèi)力氣做成的事對(duì)于一個(gè)殘疾人來(lái)說(shuō)也許相當(dāng)困難。獲得了同正常人一樣的能力，這個(gè)殘疾人就獲得了成功。這便是我們?yōu)槭裁闯缇词返俜?霍金的原因—雖然行動(dòng)不便，受到了輪椅的限制，他依然為科學(xué)界作出了巨大的貢獻(xiàn)。

就我自己而言，生性羞澀，容易怯場(chǎng)，不得不鼓起非常大的勇氣來(lái)參加此次的演講比賽。我完全可以待在一邊，不參加大學(xué)級(jí)別的比賽，而落得輕松自在?？墒?，我還是選擇了接受這一挑戰(zhàn)來(lái)面對(duì)困難。現(xiàn)在我來(lái)了，如果我能夠得第一的話.這對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)就是巨大的成功。如果，我是最后一名—我希望情況不是這樣—但如果我真的是最后一名，我也不會(huì)認(rèn)為這次的嘗試是一次失敗，反而我要把它當(dāng)作一次真正的成功來(lái)慶賀，因?yàn)槲乙徊糠值哪繕?biāo)是對(duì)自己性格的鍛煉—更加堅(jiān)強(qiáng)、勇敢地面對(duì)困難。對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，這標(biāo)志著我在通向成功人生的漫漫征途中又向前邁進(jìn)了一步，盡管是很小的一步，但是我確實(shí)通過(guò)參與真正地獲得了收益。

回到我們年輕英俊的王子和對(duì)“成功”的四步驟定義上吧，您也許已經(jīng)注意到了財(cái)富、地位和名譽(yù)等這些世俗的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)在故事中并未提及，相反故事強(qiáng)調(diào)了克服重重困難的過(guò)程。古代的智慧已經(jīng)對(duì)成功的意義下了定義，這也是我的定義。

謝謝!If There Were No After Life Whether there’s afterlife, the answer has never been the same.The atheists deny after life, believing that our life is no more than from the cradle to the grave.They may care about their illustrious names after death;they may feel attached to the affection of their offspring, but they never lay their hopes on their afterlife.They may also say that good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil, but they don’t really believe any retribution in their after life.However, in the religious world or among the superstitious people, the belief in afterlife is very popular.They do not only believe in afterlife, but thousands of reincarnations as well.In the mysterious world, there are the paradise and the hell, the celestial beings and the gods, the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas.Maybe they really believed it, or maybe they just wanted to make use of people’s veneration, the ancient emperors always declared that they were

the real dragons, the sons of God, while the royal ministers claimed to be the reincarnations of various constellations.But can the stars reincarnate?

Many people burn incense and kowtow, do good deeds and strive for virtues, not just for the present, but mainly to let God see their sincerity so as to be reborn into a better afterlife, or to achieve the highest enlightenment after several lives of practice.They do believe in afterlife.But I can’t help asking: Suppose there were no afterlife, would you still do good deeds and strive for virtues? And If God does not see what you are doing, would you still be so upright and selfless? If you work, not for serving the public and liberating the others, but just for a better afterlife of your own, isn’t it a little too selfish? Comparing with this kind of believers, those who don’t believe in afterlife, but still keep doing good deeds, are the most sincere and honest philanthropists, because they do them not for themselves but for other.You may wonder if I believe in afterlife.My answer is: I know nothing about my previous life, so I dare not make improper comments on afterlife.But I do hope there’s afterlife!Because our present life is so short that so many things slip away before our proper understanding.I have so many dreams, so many wishes, so many ambitions, as well as so many regrets and concerns.If there were no afterlife, all of them will remain unrealized!I’m not contented with the present commonplace life, I’m very much

attached to the affections that should have been mine but have been washed away by the hurrying time, and I yearn for the perfection and maturity if I could start all over again.So believe it or not, I’d rather there were afterlife.Translated by Zhang Baodan(Diana)May 1, 2004 假如沒(méi)有來(lái)世

有沒(méi)有來(lái)世，眾說(shuō)紛紜。無(wú)神論者，不相信來(lái)世。他們認(rèn)為從生到死，僅此而已。他們可能在意身后的英名，他們可能留戀后代的親情，但他們不寄希望于來(lái)世。他們也會(huì)說(shuō)善有善報(bào)，惡有惡報(bào)，但并不相信下輩子報(bào)應(yīng)什么。

在宗教領(lǐng)域、或在一些迷信的人群，來(lái)世之說(shuō)比較盛行。不僅是來(lái)世，甚至?xí)J(rèn)為有千百次的輪回。在那未知而飄渺的世界，有天堂，有地獄，有神族，有仙界，有菩薩、有佛祖。

也許真的相信、也許是為了利用人們的敬畏心里，古代的帝王們總是宣稱自己是真龍?zhí)熳?，大臣們則標(biāo)榜為天上的什么文曲星、武曲星或太白金星轉(zhuǎn)世。星星能轉(zhuǎn)世嗎？

許多人燒香、磕頭，行善、修德，并不都是為了眼前，而是為了讓上天看見(jiàn)自己的真誠(chéng)，以便下輩子有個(gè)好的托生，或者幾世之后能修成正果。這些人自然是相信來(lái)世的。但我不禁要問(wèn)：如果沒(méi)有來(lái)世，你們會(huì)不會(huì)一樣行善、修德呢？如果神靈看不見(jiàn)，你們是否也會(huì)公正無(wú)私呢？如果不是為了解脫他人和服務(wù)大眾才去修行，如果僅僅是為了自己將來(lái)托生好才去行善，是否有些自私呢？比較起來(lái)，那些不相信來(lái)世而又堅(jiān)持行善的人，則應(yīng)該是最真、最誠(chéng)的大善。因?yàn)樗麄儾皇菫樽陨?，而是為公理?/p>

也許有人會(huì)問(wèn)作者，你相信來(lái)世嗎？我的回答是：我不知道前生，因而也不敢妄談后世。但我真的希望能有來(lái)世！因?yàn)檫@輩子時(shí)間太短，許多事情都是在還沒(méi)弄明白的時(shí)候，就已經(jīng)匆匆過(guò)去了。我有那么多的理想，我有那么多的心愿，我有那么多的奢望，我有那么多的遺憾，我有那么多的牽掛，我有那么多的雄心壯志，如果沒(méi)有來(lái)世，那就一切皆空了。

我不甘心眼前的碌碌無(wú)為，我留戀被歲月沖走的本應(yīng)屬于我的親情，更向往從頭再來(lái)的完美和成熟。為此，信也好，不信也好，我寧愿有來(lái)世。

Tips for Making an Effective Speech

1、You must speak up and project your voice even if you are using a microphone.2、Your voice should be resonant and sustained when you speak.3、Pitch your voice slightly lower than normal.Listeners tend to associate credibility and authority with a relatively deep voice.4、Try to end declarative sentences on a low tone without, however, trailing off in volume.5、Slow down.1、即使是用麥克風(fēng)，也要聲音響亮并運(yùn)氣發(fā)聲。

2、聲音要有回聲并能稍持續(xù)一陣兒。

3、音調(diào)要定得比正常講話時(shí)低一些，聽(tīng)眾往往把可信度和權(quán)威性與一個(gè)相對(duì)低沉的聲音聯(lián)系在一起。

4、盡量用降調(diào)結(jié)束陳述句，但不要減弱音量。

5、放慢語(yǔ)速。

己的所學(xué)準(zhǔn)確生動(dòng)的表達(dá)，運(yùn)用到演講里去？ 段津：學(xué)習(xí)也沒(méi)有什么捷徑可走。

1，慢慢積累，不要放棄。2，多看、多讀、多模仿。

3，要記錄。寫有用的短語(yǔ)、詞句，要把它記下來(lái)，而且要注意比較外國(guó)人和中國(guó)不同的表達(dá)法。舉個(gè)例子，中國(guó)人講話的時(shí)候，謝謝大家對(duì)我的熱烈歡迎，很平實(shí)的。英語(yǔ)國(guó)家的人講這么一句話，“Thank you for the warm hospitality that makes me feel so welcome?！币馑季褪恰爸x謝你們的好客，這個(gè)好客使我感覺(jué)到自己如此受歡迎”。假如你沒(méi)有看過(guò)英文、聽(tīng)過(guò)英文，你絕對(duì)不能想到這么表達(dá)。.....要用英文來(lái)思維，越是覺(jué)得有點(diǎn)怪怪的，越是要學(xué)的。時(shí)間久而久之，你就不會(huì)講中式英文。段津：....這演講要素12項(xiàng)是Presenting Skills（演說(shuō)技巧)1.Know your topic（知道你要講什么題目）2.Know your audience（了解你的聽(tīng)眾）

3.Know your start and stop times，as well as who else is on（知道你開始和停止的時(shí)間以及除你之外還有誰(shuí)要講話）

4.Know what you want people to do differently and tell them（對(duì)你所說(shuō)的和人們所做的有什么不同，心中要有數(shù)，并讓聽(tīng)眾知道）

5.Make major points.（寫下你的講話要點(diǎn)）

6.Check all your equipment，sound，lighting and seating arrangements.（檢查你的器材、音響、燈光和座位）7.Ask someone you trust and respect to constructively critique you.（請(qǐng)一個(gè)你所信任和尊敬的人對(duì)你的講稿提出建設(shè)性的批評(píng)和意見(jiàn)）

8.Relax before you go on.（演講前要放松）

9.Practise，practise，practise.（練習(xí)、練習(xí)，再練習(xí)）

10.Remember that even if you miss a bit or forget a couple of lines，nobody knows except you.（記住即或你漏掉一點(diǎn)或忘掉幾行，除了你自己，別人是不會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)的）

11.Omit telling jokes unless you are already a good joke-teller or plan to get better.（收起你想講的笑話，除非你已經(jīng)擅長(zhǎng)講笑話或者計(jì)劃在這方面有所提高）12.Have fun（要有趣味）

上述12項(xiàng)提示是國(guó)外人士從大量實(shí)踐中總結(jié)出來(lái)的有用經(jīng)驗(yàn)，可供我們借鑒。

段津：我們講話，不管是對(duì)哪個(gè)國(guó)家的人士不要指手劃腳。當(dāng)我們談自己的情況，不要談的太滿，應(yīng)該留有余地，既談成績(jī)，也談困難。另外，對(duì)人家的事情不要指指點(diǎn)點(diǎn)。還有一件事情要注意，作為一個(gè)使節(jié)，不要評(píng)論第三國(guó)的事情，最安全的就是我談我自己的情況，我的體會(huì)，我的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，然后是我們的共同點(diǎn)。

第三屆“21世紀(jì)杯”全國(guó)英語(yǔ)演講比賽冠軍——梁勵(lì)敏

Crossing the Sea Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.The title of my speech today is “Crossing the Sea”.An English poet by the name of Rudyard Kipling once wrote in his poem “We and They”: “All the people like us are We And everyone else is They We live over the sea While They live over the way We eat pork and beef with cowhorn-handled knives They who gobble their rice off a leaf Are horrified out of their lives.” When these lines first caught my eyes, I was shocked-how could two peoples remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? Today's society, of course, is an entirely different picture.Those people who used to eat with cowhorn-handled knives might be very skillful in using chopsticks, and those people who used to gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips.Indeed, just take China as an example: Our modern life has been

influenced by Western style of living in so many ways that it's no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at McDonald's and even rather elderly people dressed in Apple Jeans.However, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today.What is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation's mentality.Just look around.How many college graduates are ready to compete aggressively for every job opportunity, whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government? How many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future? Ask anyone who participates in today's speech contest.Who has not come with a will to fight and who has not come determined to achieve self-fulfillment in winning the game? And I'm quite certain that if Confucius had lived to see today's China, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved expression of their passion.It is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient Eastern civilization are already living under strong inf1uence of the Western culture.But it is not only in China that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.Take the United States as an example: During the 1980s,in face of the overwhelming competition from Japan, many American companies such as the Ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of Eastern culture.Take the Chinese acupuncture as another example: This traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the West and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between Yin and Yang within the body--an idea which would strike any Westerner as incredible in the past!Ladies and Gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before.We live in a particular era when countries, East and West, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values.We live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.To cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter future, we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a world community which is becoming smaller and smaller.My dear fellow students, our command of the English language renders it possible for us to gain an insight into Western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.Therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between China and the rest of the world.It is my happiest dream that the new generation of Chinese will not only grow up drinking Coca-Cola and watching Hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures;benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.To end my speech, I would like to quote Rudyard Kipling again: “All the people like us are We And everyone else is They But once you cross over the sea You will end by looking on We As only a sort of They” Thank you.譯文:穿越海洋

女士們、先生們，晚上好。今天，我演講的題目是:《穿越海洋》。英國(guó)詩(shī)人羅得雅德?吉卜林曾寫過(guò)一首詩(shī)，名叫《我們與他們》，其中寫道: 像我們的人是我們=其余的人是他們=我們生活在海這邊=他們生活在路那邊=我們用牛角柄的刀叉吃豬牛肉=吞吃粽葉包飯的他們嚇得要死。=== 第一次讀到這首詩(shī)，我很震驚——過(guò)去兩個(gè)民族何以如此疏離、彼此陌生?當(dāng)然今日的社會(huì)呈現(xiàn)出完全不同的情景:那些過(guò)去吃米飯的人們也開始喜歡吃魚和薯?xiàng)l。的確如此，就拿中國(guó)來(lái)說(shuō)，西方的生活方式已經(jīng)廣泛地影響了我們的現(xiàn)代生活，以致對(duì)于年輕人對(duì)搖滾樂(lè)著迷，全家去吃麥當(dāng)勞，老年人穿蘋果牌牛仔褲，大家都已習(xí)以為常。

然而，這不過(guò)是我們當(dāng)今社會(huì)中所發(fā)生的文化變遷的表面現(xiàn)象而已，真正發(fā)生的卻是我們的民族心理開始了微妙而又有重大意義的重建，大家只要看看周圍就會(huì)清楚。

不久以前，大學(xué)生還只是束手空坐，等待政府給他們分配工作;如今，又有多少大學(xué)生正在做充分準(zhǔn)備，為爭(zhēng)取任何工作機(jī)會(huì)而激烈角逐?

20年前年輕人還完全依靠父母為他們安排未來(lái)，今天又有多少年輕人在急切地尋求一種獨(dú)立的生活?試問(wèn)今天參加演講比賽的諸位，誰(shuí)不是帶著志在一搏的心情來(lái)到這里?誰(shuí)不是鐵下心來(lái)贏得這場(chǎng)比賽以實(shí)現(xiàn)自我?如今年輕人毫無(wú)顧忌地宣泄情感當(dāng)眾親吻，我確信，倘若孔子在世，他必被嚇壞。

很明顯，我們這些東方古老文明的后裔們?cè)缫焉钤谖鞣轿幕膹?qiáng)烈影響之下，然而出現(xiàn)這種異質(zhì)文化合流的現(xiàn)象不止是在中國(guó)。

以美國(guó)為例，20世紀(jì)80年代，面對(duì)來(lái)自日本的強(qiáng)大競(jìng)爭(zhēng)壓力，許多美國(guó)公司如福特公司開始采用對(duì)手的集體合作管理方式，而這種方式正是東方文化核心之精華。

再以中華針灸為例，這種傳統(tǒng)的醫(yī)療方法以及這種療法的依據(jù)——即人體陰陽(yáng)失調(diào)導(dǎo)致疾病最終得到西方社會(huì)的承認(rèn)，而在過(guò)去，西方人還認(rèn)為這是無(wú)稽之談。

女士們，先生們，我們恰逢一個(gè)偉大的時(shí)代:全球經(jīng)濟(jì)一體化、信息革命使得世界各種文化聯(lián)系比以往更加緊密;我們恰逢一個(gè)特殊的年代:無(wú)論是東方國(guó)家還是西方國(guó)家都意識(shí)到自身急需調(diào)整傳統(tǒng)價(jià)值。與此同時(shí)，我們正生活在發(fā)展的關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻:種族沖突，地區(qū)動(dòng)蕩正越來(lái)越威脅著整個(gè)人類的和平與幸福。如何對(duì)待這一時(shí)代，擁抱更加燦爛的未來(lái)，我們需要學(xué)會(huì)在越來(lái)越小的世界大家庭中更加和睦地生活。

親愛(ài)的同學(xué)們，我們掌握英語(yǔ)，得以了解西方文化，與此同時(shí)，又不失本民族的文化特征。

因此，促進(jìn)中國(guó)與世界的文化交流與相互理解是我們神圣的責(zé)任。

我有一個(gè)美好的夢(mèng)想，我夢(mèng)想中國(guó)的年輕一代不僅僅在喝可口可樂(lè)、看好萊塢影片中成長(zhǎng)，而且還受益于我們的父輩所從未夢(mèng)想過(guò)的多元文化所帶來(lái)的深遠(yuǎn)影響。

最后，再次以羅得雅德?吉卜林的詩(shī)作為我此次演講的結(jié)尾: 像我們的人是我們=其余的人是他們=然而一旦你們穿洋越海=就不會(huì)再把我們=看做僅僅是他們。謝謝。

第三屆“21世紀(jì)杯”全國(guó)英語(yǔ)演講比賽亞軍——芮成鋼

East and West have met 東西方相聚

runner-up: Rui Cheng gang, Foreign Affair College Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen:

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 would argue that these meetings leave us with a choice between East and West ,but I believe 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 all worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the

best and making it our own.But, do Western styles and values threaten our identity? History makes it easy for us to think so-perhaps too easy.Some people seem to think that adopting Western customs, such as a bride wearing white-which has long been a color of mourning in China, instead of the traditional Chinese red for her wedding, is another submission to foreign intervention,--a betrayal of our heritage, they say.They fear that as we become “globalized”, we will no longer be Chinese.I do not agree.History teachers that a strong and confident nation is at ease in hearing from the outside world.The wedding of Eastern and Western cultures, whether in white gowns or red, brings us variety.It is a rich banquet of special foods from all over the world.As an amateur gourmet of Chinese cuisine, our superb flavours delight me.But my Chinese taste appreciates food from any land.I even allow the convenience of McDonald's a place in my life without giving up my good taste.My grandfather taught me to hum tunes of Beijing opera from the time I was very young;they are deep in my spirit, part of my soul.I love Beijing opera, because it always reminds me of who I am.But I am also a fan of modern pop music, the No.1 fan of Spice Girls on campus.of course, it goes far beyond food, music and dance.It goes into values and ways of thinking about the world.Once upon a time, or so my teacher told me, a Chinese boy and an American girl had a squabble.Both wanted to keep a bunny rabbit they had found in the garden.Surely you've seen a rabbit sunning himself in the grass.Nothing is more lovable, nothing more natural.No wonder they wanted him.The Chinese boy played his er-hu.Happiness and joy, longing and passion, filled the air.The little rabbit swayed gently and began to move his ears in the direction of the music.He liked what he heard.The girl then took out her violin and played it to produce beautiful melodies of her own.The rabbit began to bounce in her direction.So intent were the children on their own music that neither paid the other any attention.The competing melodies confused the little rabbit and he did not know which way to turn.Unable to attract the little creature, both children gave up;they walked away, in different directions, leaving the rabbit...alone.But, what if they listened ,what if they really heard each other's music，instead of always playing their own tunes?

When I hear the music of a violin ,rich with the joys of men and women who came together and sang and danced...I hear echoes of the music of the grass lands, of the hills, of the rivers...of my own native land.Is music mine and yours, or is it ours?

What I want to hear is the er-hu and the violin played together, in rhythm and

in

tune.Together, we can produce new and beautiful music, rich with textures and sounds that can only be made in harmony.The rabbit sits in the grass in the ever-warming sun.Waiting for us to play, waiting for the symphony to begin.Will he have to wait forever? The choice is ours.Thank you.尊敬的評(píng)委、女士們、先生們：吉卜林說(shuō)過(guò)，“東方是東方，西方是西方，兩者永不聚！”然而如今，在一個(gè)世紀(jì)之后，東西方相聚了。

它們?cè)谫Q(mào)易中相聚，在教育中相聚，在藝術(shù)中相聚。

有人爭(zhēng)論說(shuō)這種東西方之聚,使得我們能夠在東西方中作出選擇.然而我相信最美好的未來(lái)在于東西方世界的創(chuàng)造性的結(jié)合，我們可以變西方的觀念、習(xí)俗、技術(shù)為己所有，為己所用；我們可以享受兩上不同世界之精華，總之，我們的傳統(tǒng)之一就是擇其精華，為己所用。

然而，西方的生活方式和價(jià)值會(huì)威脅到我們的民族特色嗎？

歷史讓我們輕易相信——也許是太輕易地讓我們相信此說(shuō)了。

有人似乎認(rèn)為彩西方習(xí)俗，比如新娘結(jié)婚穿白色婚紗，是對(duì)外國(guó)介入的屈服，是對(duì)傳統(tǒng)遺產(chǎn)的背叛，因?yàn)榘粗袊?guó)傳統(tǒng)，結(jié)婚新娘要穿紅色，而白色長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)代表的是哀悼。

這些人擔(dān)心一量我們變得全球化，我們也就不在是中國(guó)人了。

我不這樣認(rèn)為。

歷史告訴我們：一個(gè)強(qiáng)大自信的民族學(xué)起外面的世界易如反掌。

無(wú)論是穿白衣還是黑衣，還是東西方異質(zhì)文化的聯(lián)姻，都給我們帶來(lái)多姿多采的生活。

東西方異質(zhì)文化的聯(lián)姻是一席來(lái)自世界各地佳肴的盛宴。

身為中國(guó)菜的業(yè)余美食家，我喜歡民族的佳肴。

然而我的中國(guó)口味也欣賞異國(guó)的風(fēng)味。

生活中我為簡(jiǎn)便吃麥當(dāng)勞，卻不會(huì)放棄自己的良好口味。

從小祖父就教我哼唱京劇，京劇深入我的精神之中，成為我靈魂的一部分。

我熱愛(ài)京劇，因?yàn)榫﹦∽屛铱傁肫鹱约菏钦l(shuí)。

但是我也迷戀現(xiàn)代流行音樂(lè)，在學(xué)校里還是“辣味女孩”的頭號(hào)歌迷。

當(dāng)然，異質(zhì)文化的交流遠(yuǎn)不止于食物、音樂(lè)和舞蹈，它深入到價(jià)值觀和世界觀。

有一次老師給我講了一個(gè)中國(guó)男孩和一個(gè)美國(guó)女孩發(fā)生爭(zhēng)執(zhí)的故事。

在花園里他們倆發(fā)現(xiàn)了一只小兔，兩人都想要。

你肯定見(jiàn)過(guò)草叢中曬太陽(yáng)的小兔。

沒(méi)什么東西比小兔子更可愛(ài)的，更富有自然情趣了，難怪他們兩人都想要它。

男孩拉起了二胡，愉快喜悅的琴聲，充滿了渴望和激情，回蕩在空中，小兔子聽(tīng)著這音樂(lè)輕輕搖擺，耳朵轉(zhuǎn)向音樂(lè)，它喜愛(ài)男孩的琴聲。

女孩也取出小提琴，拉出悠揚(yáng)的旋律。

小兔子聽(tīng)了朝她跑去。

兩人都全神貫注于自己的音樂(lè)，絲毫沒(méi)注意對(duì)方演奏的音樂(lè)。

交雜在一塊的音樂(lè)困惑了小兔子，它不知該朝哪走。男孩和女孩都不能將小兔子吸引過(guò)來(lái)，只好放棄，各自走開了，扔下小兔子獨(dú)自一人。

然而倘若他們傾聽(tīng)對(duì)方的音樂(lè)，而不是各自為歌，那么結(jié)果會(huì)如何呢？

當(dāng)我聽(tīng)到小提琴聲響起，男男女女走道一起又唱又跳，樂(lè)聲中充滿了歡樂(lè)，此時(shí)我也聽(tīng)見(jiàn)了草原上、山谷間、小河旁傳來(lái)得我們本民族的音樂(lè)的回聲。

音樂(lè)分你我，還是屬于我們大家？

我想聽(tīng)的是二胡與小提琴的合奏，旋律與節(jié)奏和諧一致。

大家一起才能創(chuàng)造出新穎動(dòng)聽(tīng)音樂(lè)，只有在和諧中大家才能創(chuàng)造出富有神韻的樂(lè)聲。

在溫暖的陽(yáng)光中，小兔子在等待著我們一起演奏，等待著交響樂(lè)開始。

他有必要再永遠(yuǎn)的等下去嗎？決擇在于我們自己。謝謝。

Liu Xin: Thank you, contestant number 10.Now you're going to compare street markets and supermarkets.Rui Cheng gang:

Well, thank you very much.Um as a man who suffered from male chauvinism, I used to think that shopping is a privilege of women.I seldom do shopping until I have to.But three years ago, something happened and it changed my view.I remember it was the first day I went to college.After I had put down my luggage, I went out of the school to have a look around.It was a romantic rainy day.And guess what, I found the street market, right beside the school.And I saw lots of middle-aged men and women talking with the sellers of fruit, clothes and soft drinks and it seems to me that they were intimate friends.And then I said to myself, why not have a try.So I walked to the seller of pineapple and talked to him.And then i bought a pineapple and bargain with him and then i will eat the pineapple while wandering around the street market and enjoy the simple things of life.Thank you.Judge: You mentioned in your first speech the importance of variety even though the east and west are converging.But many people think that one of the problems of modern life is the lack of variety.This hotel looks like every other hotel in the world and the whole world is becoming an airport.Hong Kong looks like Singapore and so on.Do you think that we may be in danger of losing the very variety that you think is so important? Rui Cheng gang:

The variety.Of course I do not think so.I don't think we are losing variety.Instead ,we are, I think we are getting more varieties.Well nowadays, as i had mentioned in my speech, we have a combination of eastern and western music, food and lifestyles.Actually I, I think I read an article in Vienna and many western critic and composers feel that a western music which has traditionally emphasized on the harmony between different instruments now is becoming increasingly, it increasingly reflects eastern music style.However, the eastern music style brought them a completely new sense of music.So I don't think we are losing variety.I think we are having more varieties.And also in our daily life, I think we have more choice.It's not actually a

choice between the east and west.Actually I think the choice is a combination of the two.And this doesn't necessarily mean we are losing our variety.We are updating what variety is.Thank you.Judge: In your second speech just now about street markets.You said that you enjoyed going to the street markets.It's a peaceful life and eating pineapples.Could you say something more comparing street markets and supermarkets as regards prices and quality and choice of products, things like that.Rui Cheng gang:

Yes.Of course I prefer street market to super market.And actually I think ,nowadays the prices in the supermarket are becoming lower and lower to meet the demands of the people.But somehow I think people, not only Chinese people, but people from all over the world, will enjoy street markets much better.Because even though going to the supermarket will help you to get rid of a lot of the trouble of bargaining ,but somehow you lose the fun of talking with people and communicating with each other, and i think the super market just reflects one of the problems of modern society.I mean the alienation of people and their fellow man.And so I think that street market is secure to these disease or illnesses in modern society.Thank you.劉欣：謝謝十號(hào)選手?，F(xiàn)在請(qǐng)你對(duì)街市和超級(jí)市場(chǎng)做一個(gè)比較。芮成鋼：

謝謝你。唔，以前由于深受男權(quán)主義影響，我向來(lái)把購(gòu)物當(dāng)作是女性的特權(quán)。不到萬(wàn)不得已決不得已決不上街購(gòu)物。但在三年前發(fā)生的一件事改變了我的觀點(diǎn)。記得那是我進(jìn)大學(xué)的第一天，放置好行李后我走出學(xué)校四處看一看。那是個(gè)浪漫的雨天。你猜怎樣？就在學(xué)校附近我發(fā)現(xiàn)了一條街市。

我看到許多中年男女正在與賣水果、服裝、飲料的攤主議價(jià)，似乎是很熟的朋友。我對(duì)自己說(shuō)，何不一試呢？

于是我走到一個(gè)賣菠蘿的小販前同他說(shuō)起價(jià)來(lái)，最后買下一個(gè)菠蘿。忽然間我意識(shí)到這十分有意思?；氐綄W(xué)校后我想了一想，總結(jié)出這所以會(huì)鐘情于街市的兩點(diǎn)原因。首先，它帶給了我樂(lè)趣。其次，我喜歡講價(jià)。實(shí)際上我認(rèn)為講價(jià)是提高口才的極端有效的辦法。沒(méi)有這幾年講價(jià)經(jīng)驗(yàn)的積累，我想我也不會(huì)有現(xiàn)在的機(jī)會(huì)站在這兒用流利的英語(yǔ)向你們做演講。三年過(guò)去了，我一周還至少上街一次。我會(huì)去賣菠蘿的小販那兒和講價(jià)，然后一邊吃菠蘿一邊在街市上慢步，享受生命中一些小樂(lè)趣。謝 謝！評(píng)委：在你的第一個(gè)演講中你提到，盡管東、西方文化存在共性，多樣性仍有其重要性?？墒窃S多人覺(jué)得現(xiàn)代生活中存在的問(wèn)題之一就是缺少多樣性。這家飯店看似世界上其他飯店，整個(gè)世界成了一個(gè)機(jī)場(chǎng)。香港看似新加坡，諸如此類。既然人認(rèn)為多樣性很重要，你是否認(rèn)為我們正瀕臨喪失這種多樣性的危機(jī)的邊緣？

芮成鋼：

說(shuō)到多樣性，我并不認(rèn)為我們正瀕臨喪失這種多樣性的危機(jī)，與此相反，我認(rèn)為我們正取得越來(lái)越多的多樣性。

正如我剛才說(shuō)過(guò)的，在現(xiàn)代社會(huì)中，我們?cè)谝魳?lè)、飲食和生活方式方面都有東西方的結(jié)合。幾年前，我曾在《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》上看到一篇文章，說(shuō)中國(guó)音樂(lè)在維也納受到熱烈的歡迎。許多西方評(píng)論家和作曲家認(rèn)為，西方音樂(lè)傳統(tǒng)上將重點(diǎn)放在各種樂(lè)器的配合上，現(xiàn)在剛更多地反映東方音樂(lè)的風(fēng)格。東方音樂(lè)的風(fēng)格給他們帶了全新的意識(shí)。

因此，我認(rèn)為我們并沒(méi)有喪失多樣性，而是在取得更多的多樣性。在日常生活中，我們也擁有更多的選擇。并不是說(shuō)是選擇東方還是選擇西方，百是在東西方的結(jié)合中進(jìn)行選擇。這不一定就意味著我們正在喪失多樣性。我們正在不斷地高速這種多樣性。謝謝。芮成鋼：

好。我當(dāng)然是喜歡街甚于超級(jí)市場(chǎng)。我認(rèn)為，現(xiàn)在超級(jí)市場(chǎng)的物價(jià)為了迎合大眾的需要在逐漸調(diào)低。但我總覺(jué)得不僅是中國(guó)人，所有的人都會(huì)喜歡街市更多一些。因?yàn)楸M管上超市可以省去講價(jià)的麻煩，你多少也損失了和人聊天和交往的樂(lè)趣。超市反映了現(xiàn)代生活的眾多問(wèn)題。在此我指的是人與人之間的疏離。而街市則可避免現(xiàn)代社會(huì)的這些毛病。謝謝。

WE AND OUR YELLOW RIVER: THRIVING TOGETHER Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.The issue of the Yellow River has become the biggest concern of members of the Chinese peoples Political Consultative Conference.My childhood, in fact, is closely associated with the river.My father is an engineering geologist, and he used to take me with him on his trips to the hydropower stations on the river.I enjoyed those trips, especially the trip to Longyang Xia reservoir.Although ten years have passed since my visit, I can still recall the scenery;I can still recall the water I saw at the reservoir.It was pure，clean and blue, not like the water I saw in the middle reaches of the river, which had turned brown and muddy after passing through the Loess Plateau.Once during our stay at the power station, we were caught in a thunderstorm.And when rain stopped, I could see trickles of water rolling down mountain slopes and flowing into the reservoir.It carried little mud or sand, because at that time, trees and grass still grew around the reservoir.And they protected the soil.At Longyang Xia I was struck by the beauty of nature, and as a child I wanted to stay there and to grow up with our Yellow River.Li Bai, the Tang Dynasty poet, said praises to the flowing water in the Yellow River.He saw it as coming down from heaven and nurturing the people along her way to the sea.However, in 1997,for 330days, not a single drop of water from the Yellow River went into the sea.And droughts are not the only punishment by nature.A friend of my father's, a university professor, is doing research on the Yellow River.According to this professor, the Yellow River will soon change its course if we allow this situation to continue.Because there is no longer enough water to carry away the silt and mud in the lower reaches of the river and the riverbed rises higher and higher each year.We have taken too much from nature, but given back too little in return.And this is the cost of the unbalanced growth.If we had taken care of the

vegetation in the upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River, we would still experience the river as Li Bai described it.While the developed countries are consuming proportionally more natural resources than the rest of the world, they've also taken some good measures in protecting nature.And as a developing country, China can learn from them in this aspect.Last year, when I was visiting Australia with a group of Chinese students who had won prizes in an English Skills Test, our Australian hosts invited us to join them for a horse-ride in the mountains.After two hours on horseback, we reached a valley, where there was a most beautiful meadow, with flowers in all colors dotted on a huge blanket of green.When I began to praise the beauty of nature, my friends told me that in this valley, there used to be a big mine and the wastewater from the mine turned everything brown.When the mine was abandoned, people made great efforts to restore the green vegetation.They also used the latest biological technology choosing the best grass seeds suitable for the local soil.So the beautiful meadow is a result of commitment, hard work, and new technology.What happened to this valley in Australia should also happen to our Yellow River and, in fact, it is happening.I have seen farmers planting trees on mountains along the Yellow River.I have seen them climb the mountain tops with seedlings on their shoulders because they had no

machinery.I have seen them pour on trees the water they had carried up in buckets from miles down the valley.These farmers are quietly nourishing our Yellow River, just as the river has nourished them.And these farmers, men and women I don't know, gave me the confidence that we and our Yellow River will grow together, and someday in the future, we will be able to drink the clean water from our Yellow River again, because she is our dearest mother.Thank you.第六屆“21世紀(jì)杯”全國(guó)英語(yǔ)演講比賽冠軍——戚悅

New Beijing, the Three-colored New Olympics Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen: Bidding for the Olympic Games is, in a way, an image-creating undertaking.The first and foremost thing is to let people fall in love with the city at first sight, attracting them by its unique image.What image does Beijing intend to create for itself once it has the opportunity to host the 2008 Olympics? It’s known to all that the Beijing Municipal Government has already set the theme for the future games: New Beijing, Great Olympics.For me, the 2008 Olympics will be a great green Olympics illuminated with two more special colors, yellow and red.First, yellow is a meaningful color.The Yellow River is China’s mother river and the cradle of Chinese civilization.We are of the yellow race and descendants of the Yellow Emperor.This color has a special origin and great significance for the Chinese people.Beijing is the capital of New

China and previously the capital for nine dynasties in Chinese history.So, yellow will naturally add splendor to the 2008 Games.Secondly, the 2008 Olympics will be a red pageant.Red is another traditionally cherished color for the whole country.We adore red.On big occasions, we like to decorate our homes in red.It is the color of double happiness, representing joyous moments, 1)auspiciousness, enthusiasm and prosperity.Red is one of the most suitable colors to describe the future of Beijing.Beijing, together with the whole country, is becoming more and more prosperous in the process of modernization.Should the 2008 Olympics be held in Beijing, the whole city will be a sea of red: the red torch, red flags, red flowers, and the radiant faces of millions of joyful people.Above all, the 2008 Olympics will be a green Olympics.Adding the green 2)ingredient is essential in creating an appealing image, as we can’t deny the fact that Beijing, at the moment, is not as green a city as what we like it to be.Striving for an environmentally appealing city has become a central task for all the citizens of Beijing.Big efforts have been made in pollution control, replanting and beautification of the city.According to a project entitled “The Green Olympic Action Plan,” between 1998 and 2007, Beijing will have invested 100 billion RMB in preserving and protecting the environment.Some 12.5 million trees and over 1 million acres of grass will be planted along the Fourth Ring Road.By then, the city’s green area will make up 40% of its total.The city will also dredge its 3)reservoirs used as a water supply to Beijing residents, controlling industrial pollution and moving out the 200 factories presently located within the city proper.Certainly, all of this is no easy task.But I am sure that all of us have confidence that we will realize these “green” goals, for now we have the full support and participation of the environmentally conscious citizens.Each citizen is showing great concern for every one of the steps the city government takes.As the saying goes, “United, we stand”, and a green Beijing will be achieved.When our aspiration becomes a reality, it will be a unique Olympics.“New Beijing, Great Olympics” will be weaved of these three superb colors: yellow, red and green.Let us welcome it and look forward to it!Thank you!第七屆“21世紀(jì)杯”全國(guó)英語(yǔ)演講比賽冠軍——孫寧

Globalization: Challenges and Opportunities for China's Younger Generation Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen: Today I'm very happy to be here to share with you some of my thoughts on the topic of Globalization.And first of all, I would like to mention an event in our recent history.Thirty years ago, American President Richard Nixon made an epoch-making visit to China, a country still isolated at that time.Premier

Zhou Enlai said to him, “Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world-twenty-five years of no communication.” Ever since then, China and America have exchanged many handshakes of various kinds.The fundamental implication of this example is that the need and desire to communicate across differences in culture and ideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations as well.As we can see today, environmentalists from different countries are making joint efforts to address the issue of global warming, economists are seeking solutions to financial crises that rage in a particular region but nonetheless cripple the world's economy, and diplomats and politicians are getting together to discuss the issue of combating terrorism.Peace and prosperity has become a common goal that we are striving for all over the world.Underlying this mighty trend of globalization is the echo of E.M.Forster's words, “Only connect!” With the IT revolution taking place, traditional boundaries of human society fall away.Our culture, politics, society and commerce are being sloshed into a large melting pot of humanity.In this interlinked world, there are no outsiders, for a disturbance in one place is likely to impact other parts of the globe.We have begun to realize that a world divided cannot endure.China is now actively integrating into the world.Our recent entry to the WTO is a good example.For decades, we have taken pride in being

第三篇：英語(yǔ)譯文

一．

從前在美國(guó)中心有一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)，那里的萬(wàn)物看上去都與其四周的環(huán)境融洽相處。小鎮(zhèn)的四周是像棋盤交錯(cuò)的生意盎然的農(nóng)莊，還有一塊塊的田地和一座座遍布山坡的果園。春天來(lái)了，白色的鮮花云彩般地漂浮在田野上；秋天到了，橡樹、楓樹和樺樹色彩斑斕，在一片松樹林間火焰般地燃燒與跳躍。小山上狐貍吠叫,田野間小鹿靜靜地躍過(guò)，所有的一切都在秋天清晨的薄霧中半隱半現(xiàn)。

在路的兩旁，一年中許多時(shí)候，月桂樹、莢蓮、榿木、蕨類植物和各樣的野花都能讓過(guò)往的行人賞心悅目。即使是冬天，路邊的景色依舊是美不勝收，那里無(wú)數(shù)的小鳥來(lái)覓取漿果莓和露在雪地上的枯枝上的種子。事實(shí)上，這鄉(xiāng)村正是由于鳥類的數(shù)量和種類之繁多而出名的。在候鳥群潮涌而來(lái)的春秋季節(jié)，人們從大老遠(yuǎn)的地方慕名前來(lái)欣賞。還有的人來(lái)這里的小溪垂釣。清冽的溪水從山中流出，溪水中有許多鱒魚藏身的背陰的水潭。所以，從許多年前開始，第一批居住者就在這里蓋房挖井，搭起了自己的谷倉(cāng)。后來(lái)，一種奇怪的摧毀力悄然襲擊了這個(gè)地區(qū)，所有的一切都開始變了。某種邪惡的符咒籠罩了這個(gè)社區(qū)：神秘的疾病攻擊了雞群，牛、羊也紛紛病死，到處都有一層死亡的陰影。農(nóng)夫們談?wù)撝抑械脑S多疾病；鎮(zhèn)上的醫(yī)生也越來(lái)越因病人中出現(xiàn)的新的病癥而感到迷惑。在成人和孩子中發(fā)生了好幾起突發(fā)的不明其由的死亡，那些孩子在玩耍中突然病倒，幾小時(shí)后就死去了。

這里是一派奇怪的寂靜。就說(shuō)鳥兒們吧---它們都去哪兒了？許多人說(shuō)起鳥兒的時(shí)候都充滿了迷惑與不安。他們后院的飼養(yǎng)站已經(jīng)沒(méi)有鳥兒光顧了。隨處能見(jiàn)到的幾只鳥都奄奄一息。他們猛烈地顫抖，卻飛不起來(lái)。這是一個(gè)無(wú)聲的春天。曾經(jīng)是震動(dòng)著畫眉鳥、貓鳥、鴿子、樫鳥、歐鷦和許多鳥兒的黎明合唱聲的清晨如今卻寂然無(wú)聲。田野間、樹林中和沼澤地里也是一片寂靜。

在農(nóng)莊，母雞下蛋卻孵不出小雞。農(nóng)夫們抱怨無(wú)法養(yǎng)豬，因?yàn)閯偵碌呢i崽太小了，小豬也只能活幾天的功夫。蘋果樹開花了，可是沒(méi)有蜜蜂在花叢中嗡嗡地采蜜，沒(méi)有蜜蜂的授粉，也就沒(méi)有任何果子。曾經(jīng)是如此迷人的路旁如今卻鋪著黑黑的枯干的草木，仿佛是被一場(chǎng)大火燒過(guò)一般。那里也是一片寂靜，因?yàn)樗械纳锒歼z棄了它。即使是溪流中也沒(méi)有了生命。因?yàn)樗械聂~都已經(jīng)死了，垂釣者也就不再來(lái)

了。

在屋檐下的天溝里，屋頂?shù)哪就咧g仍舊可見(jiàn)幾片白色的粒狀的粉末。幾個(gè)星期之前，它像白雪一樣灑在了屋頂上、草地上、田野里和溪流里。

在這個(gè)遭受襲擊的地球上，沒(méi)有巫術(shù)，也沒(méi)有敵自20世紀(jì)40年代中期起，人們制造了500多種基本的化學(xué)藥品來(lái)殺死在現(xiàn)代語(yǔ)言中被稱作“害蟲”的昆蟲、雜草、嚙齒動(dòng)物和其他的生物體，以幾千種的品牌名稱

來(lái)出售它們。

人的行動(dòng)抑制了新生命的復(fù)蘇；這一切都是人自身造成的。

這些液體噴劑、粉末和霧狀噴劑現(xiàn)在幾乎普遍使用于農(nóng)莊、花園、森林和家庭。非選擇性的化學(xué)藥品能殺死每只昆蟲（不管是“好”的還是“壞”的），能使鳥兒不再歌唱，溪流中的魚兒不再跳躍，能在樹葉上覆蓋一層致命的薄膜，并能存留在土地中。而造成這一切的預(yù)定的目標(biāo)可能僅僅是一些雜草和昆蟲。難道真的有人認(rèn)為，我們?cè)诘厍虻谋砻嫒鱿氯绱硕嗟亩舅?，同時(shí)還能使它繼續(xù)成為一個(gè)任何生命都能存活的地方嗎？ 這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)事實(shí)上并不存在，但是在美國(guó)或地球的別的地方我們能輕易地找到一千個(gè)與它對(duì)應(yīng)的地方。我知道沒(méi)有一個(gè)社區(qū)經(jīng)歷了我所描述的所有不幸，但是其中的每一個(gè)災(zāi)難都已經(jīng)在某個(gè)地方發(fā)生了，許多社區(qū)已經(jīng)遭受了相當(dāng)多的災(zāi)難。一個(gè)冷酷的幽靈幾乎是在不經(jīng)意間已悄悄向我們走來(lái)了，而這個(gè)想像的悲劇也許很容易就成為一個(gè)我們都應(yīng)該知道的嚴(yán)酷的事實(shí)。

He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 A.M.Sunday morning.最終，他于星期天凌晨3點(diǎn)工作致死。

The obituary didn't say that, of course.當(dāng)然，訃告上沒(méi)有這樣寫。It said that he died of a coronary thrombosis--I think that was it--but everyone among his friends and acquaintances knew it instantly.訃告上寫的是死于冠狀動(dòng)脈血栓證，但他的好友和熟識(shí)的人都心知肚明。He was a perfect Type A, a workaholic, a classic, they said to each other and shook their heads--and thought for five or ten minutes about the way they lived.他們互相握著手，搖頭嘆息地說(shuō)他是一個(gè)追求完美的A型血人，一個(gè)典型的工作狂，然后用幾分鐘時(shí)間來(lái)反思自己的生活方式。

This man who worked himself to death finally and precisely at 3:00 A.M.這個(gè)男人最終在星期天凌晨三點(diǎn)整工作致死。Sunday morning--on his day off--was fifty-one years old and a vice-president.星期天的早上，這天剛好是這個(gè)51歲的副總裁的休息日。He was, however, one of six vice-presidents, and one of three who might conceivably--if the president died or retired soon enough--have moved to the top spot.Phil knew that.他是公司六位副總裁之一，也是副總裁中三位最讓人信任的人之一，如果總裁已經(jīng)逝世或者退休的話，他已經(jīng)成為了最高職位。菲爾清楚這一點(diǎn)。

He worked six days a week, five of them until eight or nine at night, during a time when his own company had begun the four-day week for everyone but the executives.他一周工作六天，其中五天工作到夜里八九點(diǎn)，他的公司里除了高級(jí)官員，其他人都已經(jīng)開始四天工作制。He worked like the Important People.他工作起來(lái)像一個(gè)重要人物。He had no outside “extracurricular interests,” unless, of course, you think about a monthly golf game that way.當(dāng)然，就像你想象中那樣，他每月打一次高爾夫球，他沒(méi)有其他的愛(ài)好。To Phil, it was work.對(duì)菲爾而言，高爾夫是工作。He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk.He was, of course, overweight, by 20 or 25 pounds.他總是在他的桌前吃著吃雞蛋沙拉三明治，他難免有點(diǎn)發(fā)福，超重了20-25磅。He thought it was okay, though, because he didn't smoke.他想這沒(méi)什么關(guān)系，因?yàn)樗麖牟怀闊煛?/p>

On Saturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit, because it was the weekend.星期六，菲爾換下西服，穿著運(yùn)動(dòng)衫去上班，因?yàn)檫@是周末。

He had a lot of people working for him, maybe sixty, and most of them liked him most of the time.他有大約60個(gè)人為他效力，大部分人在大部分時(shí)候覺(jué)得他很不錯(cuò)。Three of them will be seriously considered for his job.其中三位緊盯著他的職位。The obituary didn't mention that.訃告上沒(méi)有提及這些。

But it did list his “survivors” quite accurately.但是訃告詳細(xì)地介紹了他的遺孀。He is survived by his wife, Helen, forty-eight years old, a good woman of no particular marketable skills, who worked in an office before marrying and mothering.他的妻子，海倫，一個(gè)48歲的好女人，沒(méi)有什么特別的市場(chǎng)能力，在結(jié)婚生子之前在一家公司上班。She had, according to her daughter, given up trying to compete with his work years ago, when the children were small.她說(shuō)，在女兒的記憶里，她很多年前，當(dāng)孩子們還很小的時(shí)候，就放棄了和他工作的抗?fàn)?。A company friend said, “I know how much you will miss him.” And she answered, “I already have.” 一個(gè)工作伙伴說(shuō)，“我知道你將對(duì)他有多思念”，她回答到，“我一直都很想他?！?/p>

“Missing him all these years,” she must have given up part of herself which had cared too much for the man.She would be “well taken care of.” “想了他這么多年了，”她如此在乎的這個(gè)男人，必須放棄她，以后她將會(huì)被“好好的照顧”。

His “dearly beloved” eldest of the “dearly beloved” children is a hard-working executive in a manufacturing firm down South.他的“最愛(ài)的”孩子們中“最愛(ài)的”長(zhǎng)子是南方某制造公司努力工作的經(jīng)理。In the day and a half before the funeral, he went around the neighborhood researching his father, asking the neighbors what he was like.They were embarrassed.在葬禮前的一天半里，他走訪鄰居詢問(wèn)鄰居們?cè)儐?wèn)鄰居對(duì)他的印象。他們很尷尬。

His second child is a girl, who is twenty-four and newly married.他的第二個(gè)孩子是一個(gè)女孩，24歲了，剛剛結(jié)婚。She lives near her mother and they are close, but whenever she was alone with her father, in a car driving somewhere, they had nothing to say to each other.她和媽媽住的很近，很親密，但是無(wú)論什么時(shí)候，當(dāng)她和爸爸獨(dú)處的時(shí)候，哪怕是在一輛車中，他們互相沒(méi)有什么言語(yǔ)。

The youngest is twenty, a boy, a high-school graduate who has spent the last couple of years, like a lot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass and food.最小的是一個(gè)男孩，20歲，高中畢業(yè)生，像很多他的朋友一樣，做一些零工，吃喝玩樂(lè)。He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried to mean enough to him to keep the man at home.他是唯一一個(gè)能夠抓住父親的人，嘗試把父親留到家里。He was his father's favorite.Over the last two years, Phil stayed up nights worrying about the boy.他是他父親最喜歡的兒子，在生命的最后兩年里，菲爾整夜擔(dān)心這個(gè)孩子。

The boy once said, “My father and I only board here.” 他曾說(shuō)過(guò)，“父親和我只是在這里寄宿”

At the funeral, the sixty-year-old company president told the forty-eight-year-old widow that the fifty-one-year-old deceased had meant much to the company and would be missed and would be hard to replace.在葬禮上，60歲的總裁安慰48歲的遺孀說(shuō)，這位51歲的死者對(duì)公司的貢獻(xiàn)巨大，沒(méi)有人可以替代他的位置。The widow didn't look him in the eye.這位遺孀不敢直視他眼睛。She was afraid he would read her bitterness and, after all, she would need him to straighten out the finances--the stock options and all that.她害怕他可以讀出她的苦痛，畢竟，她需要他幫忙清理丈夫的財(cái)政—股票什么的。

Phil was overweight and nervous and worked too hard.菲爾超重、焦慮、工作強(qiáng)度太大。If he wasn't at the office he was worried about it.如果他不在公司，就會(huì)擔(dān)心公司的工作。Phil was a Type A, heart-attack natural.You could have picked him out in a minute from a lineup.菲爾是一個(gè)A型血，先天易發(fā)心臟病。在人群中，你可以一眼就把他認(rèn)出來(lái)。

So when he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 A.M.Sunday morning, no one was really surprised.所以當(dāng)他最終因工作死于星期天凌晨三點(diǎn)整，沒(méi)人感到意外。

By 5:00 P.M.the afternoon of the funeral, the company president had begun, discreetly of course, with care and taste, to make inquiries about his replacement.One of three men.He asked around: “Who's been working the hardest?” 葬禮過(guò)后的下午5點(diǎn)，公司總裁已經(jīng)開始謹(jǐn)慎地，帶著小心和鑒賞，審視著三位可以代替他職位的人。他問(wèn)到“誰(shuí)工作最努力？”

四．

愛(ài)爾伯特·愛(ài)因斯坦是世界上最偉大的科學(xué)家之一，但如果要我用一個(gè)詞來(lái)概括他這個(gè)人的品質(zhì)，那我會(huì)選“質(zhì)樸”。也許一個(gè)小故事能讓我們略知一二。有一次，天降大雨，愛(ài)因斯坦躲之不及，于是他摘下了帽子，把它夾在外衣下。當(dāng)別人問(wèn)他為什么要這么做時(shí)，他解釋說(shuō)，雨水會(huì)弄壞他的帽子，但是他的頭發(fā)濕了不會(huì)有什么大礙。他的邏輯真是無(wú)懈可擊。他這種本能地把握事物本質(zhì)的能力正是他能夠做出重大科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)的秘訣所在，除此之外，還有他對(duì)美的那種非凡的感覺(jué)。我第一次見(jiàn)到愛(ài)因斯坦是在1935年，在位于新澤西的著名的普林斯頓大學(xué)高級(jí)研究中心。他是最早被邀請(qǐng)到該中心的科學(xué)家之一。薪水方面，研究中心讓他自己全權(quán)決定。但讓研究中心主任感到沮喪的是，愛(ài)因斯坦開出了一個(gè)讓人無(wú)法接受的數(shù)目：他要的實(shí)在是太少了。中心主任不得不懇求他接受一份更高的工資。我對(duì)愛(ài)因斯坦充滿了敬畏，因此當(dāng)我想就一些我正在研究的問(wèn)題與他探討時(shí)，一直猶豫不決。最終我還是鼓起勇氣我敲了門，里面?zhèn)鱽?lái)了非常溫和的聲音：請(qǐng)進(jìn)---他說(shuō)這個(gè)詞的時(shí)候聲調(diào)上揚(yáng)，聽(tīng)起來(lái)即像是歡迎又像是在提問(wèn)。我進(jìn)到他的辦公室，發(fā)現(xiàn)他正坐在桌旁，抽著煙斗，演算一個(gè)問(wèn)題。他的衣服很不合身，頭發(fā)亂蓬蓬的。他朝我微笑，表示對(duì)我的熱忱的歡迎。他的自然隨意立刻讓我放松了。當(dāng)我開始向他解釋我的想法時(shí)，他讓我把方程寫在黑板上，這樣讓他能看到每一步的推演。然后他提出了一個(gè)讓我極其震驚同時(shí)又備感親切的要求：“請(qǐng)講得稍微慢一點(diǎn)，我理解問(wèn)題的速度比較慢”。這種話出自愛(ài)因斯坦之口！他說(shuō)這話時(shí)非常溫和，我不由得笑了。從此，我對(duì)他的畏懼之心煙消云散。

和愛(ài)因斯坦的合作是讓人終身難忘的經(jīng)歷。1937年，我和波蘭物理學(xué)家列奧潑德·英費(fèi)爾德問(wèn)他是否可以和他合作，他欣然應(yīng)允，因?yàn)樗幸粋€(gè)重力方面的問(wèn)題，有待仔細(xì)的研究。于是，我們有機(jī)會(huì)認(rèn)識(shí)了愛(ài)因斯坦作為一個(gè)普通人和朋友的一面，我們還了解了他作為一個(gè)科學(xué)家的職業(yè)素養(yǎng)。

他極度的專注，全身心的投入，讓人嘆為觀止。當(dāng)他處理一個(gè)難題的時(shí)候，他努力思索，就像動(dòng)物撕咬獵物。通常，當(dāng)我們碰到一個(gè)似乎是無(wú)法逾越的難題時(shí)，他會(huì)站起來(lái)，把煙斗放在桌子上，用他那口音古怪的英語(yǔ)說(shuō)：“我要稍微思考一下?！比缓笏诜块g里來(lái)回踱步，食指捻弄著他那長(zhǎng)而灰白的發(fā)卷。他臉上會(huì)有一種恍惚出神而又深邃的表情。沒(méi)有專著的神情，也沒(méi)有皺眉---只有寧?kù)o的內(nèi)心的交流。時(shí)間一分一秒過(guò)去，突然他會(huì)停止自己的腳步，臉上浮現(xiàn)出溫和的微笑。他已經(jīng)找出了問(wèn)題的答案。有的時(shí)候，答案非常簡(jiǎn)單，我和英費(fèi)爾德都會(huì)自責(zé)我們?cè)趺磿?huì)想不到呢。愛(ài)因斯坦在他的腦海深處，施展了外人無(wú)法看見(jiàn)的魔法，這個(gè)高深的過(guò)程是我們無(wú)法理解的

愛(ài)因斯坦還是一位出色的業(yè)余音樂(lè)家。我們那時(shí)常進(jìn)行二重奏，他拉小提琴，我彈鋼琴。有一天他說(shuō)莫扎特是所有作曲家中最偉大的一位，這讓我吃驚不小。他認(rèn)為貝多芬的音樂(lè)是“創(chuàng)造”出來(lái)的，而莫扎特的音樂(lè)是如此純凈和優(yōu)美，讓人感覺(jué)他只是在哪兒“發(fā)現(xiàn)”了它---它一直是宇宙內(nèi)在的美的一部分，一直存在著，等待著我們?nèi)グl(fā)現(xiàn)。

這種莫扎特式的淳樸正是大部分愛(ài)因斯坦理論的最顯著特點(diǎn)。比如他1905年提出的相對(duì)論就是建立在兩個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的假說(shuō)之上的。一個(gè)是所謂的相對(duì)原則，粗略的說(shuō)，就是我們無(wú)法判斷自己是否是靜止還是在平穩(wěn)的移動(dòng)。另一個(gè)假定是：不管產(chǎn)生它的物體速度如何，光的速度是恒定的。如果你用一根木棍攪動(dòng)湖水，你就會(huì)知道這個(gè)假定是多么的有道理。不管你是在一個(gè)靜止的碼頭，還是在飛馳的高速游艇上攪動(dòng)棍子，波浪一旦產(chǎn)生，就不受外界的影響，它的速度和木棍沒(méi)有任何關(guān)系。

這兩個(gè)假定，分開來(lái)看，都是合理的，而看上去又如此明顯，自然，無(wú)須證明。但是如果把這兩個(gè)假定放在一起，它們之間便有了強(qiáng)烈的矛盾，一個(gè)二流的物理學(xué)家會(huì)丟掉其中一個(gè)，落荒而逃。愛(ài)因斯坦很大膽，一個(gè)都沒(méi)有放棄，從而使物理學(xué)發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化。因?yàn)樗C明如果我們放棄我們?cè)瘸钟械年P(guān)于時(shí)間性質(zhì)的觀念，這兩個(gè)假設(shè)是可以和諧地共存的。

科學(xué)就好像是由很多撲克牌建成的房屋，時(shí)間和空間的概念是最底下的那兩張。對(duì)時(shí)間的胡亂干預(yù)會(huì)讓大半個(gè)房屋倒塌，正是這一點(diǎn)讓愛(ài)因斯坦的工作顯得舉足輕重，同時(shí)也極具爭(zhēng)議性。在普林斯頓舉行的慶祝他70大壽的會(huì)議上，其中一位發(fā)言人，是諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)獲得者，當(dāng)他試圖表述愛(ài)因斯坦卓絕非凡的成就時(shí)，他找不到合適的詞句，于是無(wú)助地聳了一下肩，指了指他的手表，說(shuō)：“所有的一切都來(lái)自于此”。語(yǔ)氣中充滿了敬畏和驚異。他的語(yǔ)屈詞窮恰恰是我聽(tīng)過(guò)的對(duì)愛(ài)因斯坦天才的最為深刻的褒獎(jiǎng)。愛(ài)因斯坦身上有讓人難以捉摸的古怪的一面。我最為喜歡的一個(gè)關(guān)于他的逸事很好的說(shuō)明了這一點(diǎn)。據(jù)說(shuō)這是他在普林斯頓的第一年，圣誕前夜，幾個(gè)孩子在他的屋外唱起了圣誕節(jié)頌歌。唱完之后，他們敲門告訴他，他們?cè)诨I錢買圣誕禮物。愛(ài)因斯坦聽(tīng)了之后說(shuō)：“等一下”。他穿上外套，從琴盒里取出小提琴。然后他和他們一起走家串戶，他們唱“寂靜的夜”，他用小提琴給他們伴奏。能夠認(rèn)識(shí)愛(ài)因斯坦這個(gè)人，了解他的工作，這對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)意味著什么呢？我應(yīng)該如何表述呢？和那個(gè)無(wú)助的指著自己手表的諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)獲得者一樣，我找不到合適的詞句。好像是一件偉大的藝術(shù)作品給人的啟示，讓你看到了原來(lái)看不到的東西。比如，當(dāng)我走在一片人跡稀少的沙灘，想起他對(duì)簡(jiǎn)單宇宙的不懈追求，于是眼前的風(fēng)景便具有了一種更為深沉的美。

第四篇：小學(xué)生百篇演講英語(yǔ)故事文本

英語(yǔ)故事

Jack is a young boy.He lives with his mother.They live in asmall house.The family is poor.Their cow, Betsy, gives

“杰克，我們需要的是錢！”她說(shuō)?！拔覀兡苡枚棺淤I什么東西呢？”

Jack goes to bed.He is very sad.His mother throws the beans out the window.Soon, a beanstalk is growing.It grows and grows and grows and grows!Now, it is in the sky!

杰克傷心地睡覺(jué)去了。他的媽媽把豆子丟到窗外。很快地，一株豆莖長(zhǎng)出來(lái)。它長(zhǎng)呀長(zhǎng)的，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)長(zhǎng)到天上去了！

Jack wakes up early.He sees the beanstalk.Where does it go? Jack goes up the beanstalk.He goes up and up and up.Finally, he is at the top.杰克很早就醒了，他看見(jiàn)了豆莖。這株豆莖會(huì)通往哪里去呢？杰克沿著豆莖爬上去。他爬呀爬的，最后爬到了頂端。

A giant lives in the sky.He has a big house

and a lot of money, but he isn't nice.He eats people!Jack doesn't know the giant.He goes into the house.天上有一位巨人住在那里，他有一間好大好大的屋子和好多好多的錢，但是他卻不是個(gè)好人，因?yàn)樗麜?huì)吃人！杰克并不認(rèn)識(shí)這個(gè)巨人，所以走進(jìn)了這間屋子。

Jack looks around the house.There are tables, chairs, rugs, and a fireplace.Everything is so big!Then, the giant's wife sees Jack.She is old and kind.“Who are you?” she asks Jack.“I am Jack,” he says.“Can you give me some food? I am hungry.”

杰克看了看屋子里的四周，有桌子、椅子、地毯，還有一個(gè)壁爐。每一樣?xùn)|西都好大！這時(shí)巨人的妻子看到了杰克，她年紀(jì)很大，但心地善良。“你是誰(shuí)？”她問(wèn)杰克。

“我是杰克，”他說(shuō)?！澳憧梢越o我一點(diǎn)吃的東西嗎？我餓了。”

The giant's wife feeds Jack.Her food is good.Just then, a door opens.The giant is coming into the house!

“Quick, Jack, get into the pot,” says the giant's wife.“The giant likes to eat boys!”

巨人的妻子煮東西給杰克吃，她煮的菜很好吃。就在這個(gè)時(shí)候，一扇門打開了，巨人就要

走到屋子里來(lái)！

“快點(diǎn)！杰克！快到鍋?zhàn)永锶?，”巨人的妻子說(shuō)道?！熬奕讼矚g吃男孩！”

Jack gets into the pot.The giant comes into

the kitchen.He looks around.“I smell a boy,” he says with a loud voice.“Where is he? I want to eat him.”

“There are no boys here,” says his wife.“Sit down and eat your breakfast.”

杰克躲進(jìn)鍋?zhàn)永锶?。巨人走進(jìn)廚房，四處張望。

“我聞到男孩子的味道，”他大聲說(shuō)?！八谀睦?？我要吃掉他?！?“這里沒(méi)有什么男孩子，”巨人的妻子回答道?！白聛?lái)吃你的早餐?！?/p>

The giant has a goose.He puts it on the table.The goose lays an egg.It is made of gold!Jack sees the egg.“I want that goose,” he thinks.“I can sell the golden eggs.Then, Mother and I can buy food.”

巨人有一只鵝，他把這只鵝擺到餐桌上。鵝下了一顆蛋，這是一顆金蛋！杰克看到了這顆蛋。

“我想要那只鵝，”他心想?！拔铱梢园呀鸬百u掉，這樣?jì)寢尯臀揖涂梢阅缅X買食物了?！?/p>

The giant goes out of the kitchen.Soon he comes back.He puts a golden harp on the table.“I don't feel happy,” he says.“Harp, sing me a song!”

the biggest adventure is never dare

to take any adventure

It is well konwn that most of people like to adventure in their unconscious mind but hardly any of them put the idea into reality.The biggest adventure is never dare to take any adventure for any person.When you want to climb a mountain,for instance,it is probable that you may hold back when you konw how steep it is.This psychology about fearing failure causes you dare not face the way forward.What's more,you could not face the same problem when you meet a small hill next time during your life,that is because you don't have a daring mood.As the proverb goes,no rose without a thorn,nothing is difficult to the man who will try.When you meet something you want to do ,just do it.Why not? You should understand that a loser is afraid to try new things.Don't be afraid to biite off more than you can chew.As we all konwn that opportunity is given by those who are ready for it.Daring not to take any adventure makes people lost many opportunities,such as the opportunities in finding works.You should have confidence and determination.You will regret if you don't have a try because you don't konw what the result

is.You can take the future even if you fail.In other words,failure is the mother of success,if there is nothing good about failure,how can it be the mother of success?Experience is also a kind of weath,which is still the truth.You and me should learn to take adventure.Thank you!

最大的冒險(xiǎn)是沒(méi)有勇氣 采取任何冒險(xiǎn)

這是一個(gè)很好的時(shí)刻才知道誰(shuí),大多數(shù)人都喜歡在他們的潛意識(shí)的冒險(xiǎn),但幾乎沒(méi)有人把想法變成現(xiàn)實(shí)。最大的冒險(xiǎn)是從不敢采取任何冒險(xiǎn)任何人。

當(dāng)你想爬山,例如,很可能你可以阻擋當(dāng)你知道陡峭。這種心理的失敗使你害怕不敢面對(duì)我們前進(jìn)的道路。更重要的是,你不可能面臨同樣的問(wèn)題,當(dāng)你遇到一個(gè)小山丘下次在你的生活中,那是因?yàn)槟銢](méi)有大膽的心情。俗話說(shuō),沒(méi)有不帶刺的玫瑰,世上無(wú)難事,只要肯登攀。當(dāng)你遇到一些你想做的事,就做吧。為什么不呢?你應(yīng)該明白真正的失敗者害怕嘗試新的東西。不要害怕biite掉超過(guò)能力所及的事情。我們都時(shí)刻才知道誰(shuí)這個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)給那些有準(zhǔn)備的人。

這是konwn，大多數(shù)人喜歡冒險(xiǎn)，在他們的潛意識(shí)，但幾乎沒(méi)有任何投入reality.The最大的冒險(xiǎn)的想法是從來(lái)不敢對(duì)任何人采取任何冒險(xiǎn)。

最大的冒險(xiǎn)從未是膽敢 to采取所有冒險(xiǎn)

是知名的大多數(shù)人在他們不自覺(jué)的頭腦里喜歡冒險(xiǎn)，但是任何一個(gè)幾乎不放想法入現(xiàn)實(shí)。最大的冒險(xiǎn)從未是采取任何人的所有冒險(xiǎn)的膽敢。

敢不采取任何冒險(xiǎn)做人丟失了許多機(jī)會(huì)，例如在發(fā)現(xiàn)工作的機(jī)會(huì)。您應(yīng)該有信心和決心。您后悔您是否沒(méi)有一次嘗試，因?yàn)槟恢朗裁唇Y(jié)果是。您能需要未來(lái)，即使您出故障。換句話說(shuō)，失敗怎么成功的母親是否是，如果沒(méi)什么好關(guān)于失敗，可以它是成功的母親？經(jīng)驗(yàn)也是一weath，仍然是真相。您和我應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)采取冒險(xiǎn)。謝謝!
