第三篇：鉆石寶地的英文演講稿

When going down the Tigris and Euphrates rivers many years ago with a party of English travelers I found myself under the direction of an old Arab guide whom we hired up at Baghdad, and I have often thought how that guide resembled our barbers in certain mental characteristics.He thought that it was not only his duty to guide us down those rivers, and do what he was paid for doing, but to entertain us with stories curious and weird, ancient and modern strange, and familiar.Many of them I have forgotten, and I am glad I have, but there is one I shall never forget.

The old guide was leading my camel by its halter along the banks of those ancient rivers, and he told me story after story until I grew weary of his story-telling and ceased to listen.I have never been irritated with that guide when he lost his temper as I ceased listening.But I remember that he took off his Turkish cap and swung it in a circle to get my attention.I could see it through the corner of my eye, but I determined not to look straight at him for fear he would tell another story.But although I am not a woman, I did finally look, and as soon as I did he went right into another story.Said he, “I will tell you a story now which I reserve for my particular friends.” When he emphasized the words “particular friends,” I listened and I have ever been glad I did.I really feel devoutly thankful, that there are 1,674 young men who have been carried through college by this lecture who are also glad that I did listen.The old guide told me that there once lived not far from the River Indus an ancient Persian by the name of Ali Hafed.He said that Ali Hafed owned a very large farm;that he had orchards, grain-fields, and gardens;that he had money at interest and was a wealthy and contented man.One day there visited that old Persian farmer one of those ancient Buddhist priests, one of the wise men of the East.He sat down by the fire and told the old farmer how this old world of ours was made.?

He said that this world was once a mere bank of fog, and that the Almighty thrust His finger into this bank of fog, and began slowly to move His finger around, increasing the speed until at last He whirled this bank of fog into a solid ball of fire.Then it went rolling through the universe, burning its way through other banks of fog, and condensed the moisture without, until it fell in floods of rain upon its hot surface, and cooled the outward crust.Then the internal fires bursting outward through the crust threw up the mountains and hills, the valleys, the plains and prairies of this wonderful world of ours.If this internal molten mass came bursting out and cooled very quickly, it became granite;less quickly copper, less quickly silver, less quickly gold, and, after gold, diamonds were made.Said the old priest, “A diamond is a congealed drop of sunlight.” Now that is literally scientifically true, that a diamond is an actual deposit of carbon from the sun.The old priest told Ali Hafed that if he had one diamond the size of his thumb he could purchase the county, and if the had a mine of diamonds he could place his children upon thrones through the influence of their great wealth.Ali Hafed heard all about diamonds, how much they were worth, and went to his bed that night a poor man.He had not lost anything, but he was poor because he was discontented, and discontented because he feared he was poor.He said, “I want a mine of diamonds,” and he lay awake all night.Early in the morning he sought out the priest.I know by experience that a priest is very cross when awakened early in the morning, and when he shook that old priest out of his dreams, Ali Hafed said to him:

“Will you tell me where I find diamonds?”

”Diamonds!What do you want with diamonds?”

“Why, I wish to be immensely rich.”

“Well, then, go along and find them.That is all you have to do;go and find them, and then you have them.”

“But I don’t know where to go.”

“Well, if you will find a river that runs through white sands, between high mountains, in those white sands you will always find diamonds.”

“I don’t believe there is any such river.”

“Oh yes, there are plenty of them.All you have to do is to go and find them, and then you have them.”

Said Ali Hafed, “I will go.”

So he sold his farm, collected his money, left his family in charge of a neighbor, and away he went in search of diamonds.He began his search, very properly to my mind, at the Mountains of the Moon.Afterward he came around into Palestine, then wandered on into Europe, and at last when his money was all spent and he was in rags, wretchedness, and poverty, he stood on the shore of that bay at Barcelona, in Spain, when a great tidal wave came rolling in between the pillars of Hercules, and the poor, afflicted, suffering, dying man could not resist the awful temptation to cast himself into that incoming tide, and he sank beneath its foaming crest, never to rise in this life again.Then after that old guide had told me that awfully sad story, he stopped the camel I was riding on and went back to fix the baggage that was coming off another camel, and I had an opportunity to muse over his story while he was gone.I remember saying to myself, “Why did he reserve that story for his ‘particular friends’?” There seemed to be no beginning, no middle, no end, nothing to it.?

That was the first story I had ever heard told in my life, and would be the first one I ever read, in which the hero was killed in the first chapter.I had but one chapter of that story, and the hero was dead.When the guide came back and took up the halter of my camel, he went right ahead with the story, into the second chapter, just as though there had been no break.The man who purchased Ali Hafed’s farm one day led his camel into the garden to drink, and as that camel put its nose into the shallow water of that garden brook, Ali Hafed’s successor noticed a curious flash of light from the white sands of the stream.He pulled out a black stone having an eye of light reflecting all the hues of the rainbow.He took the pebble into the house and put it on the mantel which covers the central fires, and forgot all about it.A few days later this same old priest came in to visit Ali Hafed’s successor, and the moment he opened that drawing-room door he saw that flash of light on the mantel, and he rushed up to it, and shouted:

“Here is a diamond!Has Ali Hafed returned?”

“Oh no, Ali Hafed has not returned, and that is not a diamond.That is nothing but a stone we found right out here in our own garden.”

“But,” said the priest, “I tell you I know a diamond when I see it.I know positively that is a diamond.”

Then together they rushed out into that old garden and stirred up the white sands with their fingers, and lo!There came up other more beautiful and valuable gems then the first.“Thus,” said the guide to me, “was discovered the diamond-mine of Golconda, the most magnificent diamond-mine in all the history of mankind, excelling the Kimberly itself.The Kohinoor, and the Orloff of the crown jewels of England and Russia, the largest on earth, came from that mine.”

When that old Arab guide told me the second chapter of his story, he then took off his Turkish cap and swung it around in the air again to get my attention to the moral.Those Arab guides have morals to their stories, although they are not always moral.As he swung his hat, he said to me, “Had Ali Hafed remained at home and dug in his own cellar, or underneath his own wheat fields or in his own garden, instead of wretchedness, starvation, and death by suicide in a strange land, he would have had ‘acres of diamonds.’ For every acre of that old farm, yes, every shovelful, afterward revealed gems which since have decorated the crowns of monarchs.”

第四篇：讀《第六顆鉆石》有感

讀《第六顆鉆石》有感

今天，讀了《第六顆鉆石》這篇課文，讓我受益匪淺。

這篇課文主要講了“我”在一家出售珠寶的商店當上了臨時售貨員時，有一天下午當我在工作時，有一位失業(yè)者走了進來，偷偷地撿走了掉在地上的第六顆鉆石，我發(fā)現(xiàn)后，連忙叫住他，很誠懇地向那位失業(yè)者要回那顆鉆石。

我們常常說，人之初，性本善。從課文中，作者跟那為失業(yè)者的對話，我感受到作者是一個不但對工作很認真還對待客人很尊重的人。

在生活中我也經歷過這樣的事情，有一次，我在好又多買東西，我買了5樣商品，而我去結賬的時候忘了付一樣商品的錢，我走到門口，被一位保安發(fā)現(xiàn)了。他叫我拿出商品檢查一遍，后來發(fā)現(xiàn)，果然有一件商品沒付錢，于是我立即拿著商品跑向收銀臺去補錢，我心里想：那位收銀員會不會批評我呢？出乎意料的是，那位收銀員不但沒有批評我，還表揚了我，你真是一個誠實的孩子呀。

我覺得一個人在為人處事的態(tài)度很重要。你尊重別人，別人也會尊重你，我希望以后都要做一個受別人尊重的人。

第五篇：《羊皮卷之鉆石寶地》讀后感

許多人都有夢想創(chuàng)立自己的事業(yè)，但卻苦于找不到自己的突破口，不知道從何入手或該干什么！其實機遇就在自己的手中，財富就在自己的腳下！事實上，有許許多多成功的范例，都是由現(xiàn)實中小事所觸發(fā)的靈感引起的，《羊皮卷之鉆石寶地》讀后感。如果我們善于從一件小事當中觀察與發(fā)現(xiàn)，奇跡就會自動出現(xiàn)。假如換一位不善于思考的人去看那堆燃而未盡的廢木頭，眼睛看直了也不會有所發(fā)現(xiàn)。因為世界上很多事情就是這樣，如果肯動腦子，任何一件看是平常的事情都有其可開發(fā)之處，而且很多的智慧和發(fā)現(xiàn)都來自一些平常的小事，只是沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)罷了。然而怎樣培養(yǎng)一種能從平常事物中又不平常發(fā)現(xiàn)的心態(tài)呢？那就是要有一種善于思考的態(tài)度，只要勤于思考仔細觀察，就不會讓容易得到的機遇溜走！所以我們每個人腳下都有財富，只要你善于發(fā)現(xiàn)，勤于思考，你就一定能挖掘屬于你自己的財富！

厲行節(jié)約而不是炫耀財富，很多時候我們存起來的錢能帶給我們巨大的財富，讀后感《《羊皮卷之鉆石寶地》讀后感》。每當我們想象富人的時候，我們都把他們想成特別奢移，他們用的東西都是普通收入的人渴望而不可及的。這些完全不適合用于那些白手起家的百萬富翁，白手起家的人之所以能致富，是因為他知道節(jié)約的價值，并在其常生活的每個細節(jié)中厲行節(jié)約。哈曼說：不節(jié)約的生活誰也花費不起，只有窮人才浪費。

金錢是一種巨大的力量，既可用在正道，也可用來犯罪，關鍵是你如何利用它，在他用來滿足基本的生活消費后，還可以來做寫慈善事業(yè)，這是體現(xiàn)金錢價值與力量的最好方式。

想要致富就要緊緊住住機遇，堅信自己可以賺錢，一個人的必勝心，是堅信自己一定能成功的堅定信念。這種堅定的信念，不管遇到了多么嚴重的挫擇，不論碰到了多么巨大的困難，都不會發(fā)生動搖。因為內在堅定信念的程度決定外在精彩的程度。
