第一篇：美國插畫家TED演講英文稿

When my first children’s book was published in 2001, i returned to my old elementary school to talk to the students about being an author and an illustrator,and when i was setting up my slide projector in the cafetorium,i looked across the room,and there she was:my old lunch lady.she was still there at the school and she was busily preparing lunches for the day.so i approached her to say hello,and i said,”hi,jeannie!how are you?”and she looked at me and i could tell that she recognized me,but she couldn’t quite place me,and she looked at me and she said,”stephenkrosoczka?”and i was amazed that she knew that i was a krosoczka,butstephen is my uncle who is 20 years older than i am,and she had been his lunch lady when he was a kid.and she starting telling me about her grandkids,and that blew my mind.my lunch lady had grandkids,and therefore kids,and therefore left school at the end of the day?i thought she lived in the cafeteria,with the serving spoons.i had never thought about any of that before.well,that chance encounter inspired my imagination and i created the lunch lady graphic novel series,a series of comics about a lunch lady.who used her fish stick nunchucks to fight off evil cyborg substitutes,a school bus monster and mutant mathletes,and the end of every book,they get the bad guy with their hairnet,and they proclaimed,”justice is served!”and it’s been amazing because the series was so welcomed into the the reading lives of children,and they sent me the most amazing letters and cards and artwork.and i would notice as i would visit schools,the lunch staff would be involved in the programming in very meaningful way.and coast to coast,all of the lunch ladies told me the same thing:thank you for making a superhero in our likeness.”because the lunch lady has not been treated very kindly in popular culture over time.but it meant the most to jeannie.when the books were first published,i invited her to the book launch party,and in front of everyone there,everyone she had fed over the years,i gave her a piece of artwork and some books.and two years after this photo was taken,she passed away,and i attended her wake,and nothing could have prepared me for what i saw there.because next to her casket was this painting and her husband told me that it meant so much to her that i had acknowledged her hard work,i had validated what she did.and that inspired me to create a day where we could recreate that feeling in cafeterias across the country:school lunch hero day,a day where kid can make creative projects for their lunch staff.and i partnered with the school nutrition association and did you know that a little over 30 million kids participate in school lunch programs every day.That equals up to over 5 billion lunches made every school year.and the stories of heroism go well beyond just a kid getting a few extra chicken nuggets on their lunch tray.there is msbrenda in california,who keeps a close eye on every student that comes through her line and then reports back to the guidance counselor if anything is amiss.there are the lunch ladies in kentucky who realizd that 67 precent of their students relied on those meals every day.andther were going out food over the summer so they retrofitted a school bus to create a mobile feeding unit,and they traveled around the neighborhoods feedings 500 kids a day during the summer.and kids made the most amazing projects.i knew they would.kids made hamburger cards that were made out of construction paper.They took photos of their lunch lady’s head and plastered it onto my cartoon lunch lady and fixed that to a milk carton and presented them with flowers.and they made their own comics,starring the cartoon lunch lay,alongside their actual lunch ladies.and they made thank you pizzas,where every kid signed a different topping of a construction paper pizza.for me, i was so moved by the response that came from the lunch ladies.because one woman said to me.shesaid,”before this day,i felt like i was at he end of the planet of this school.i didn’t think that anyone noticed us down here.”another woman said to me,”youknow ,what i got out of this is that what i do is important.”and of course what she does is important.what they all do is important.they’re feeding our children every single day,and before a child can learn,their belly needs to be full,and these women and men are working on the front lines to create an educated society.so i hope that you don’t wait for school lunch hero day to say thank you to your lunch staff,and i hope that you remember how powerful a thank you can be.a thank you can change a life.it changes the life of the person who receives it,and it changes the life of the person who expresses it.thank you.

第二篇：TED演講選擇越多,困惑越多 英文稿

I'm going to talk to you about some stuff that's in this book of mine that I hope will resonate with other things you've already heard, and I'll try to make some connections myself, in case you miss them.I want to start with what I call the “official dogma.” The official dogma of what? The official dogma of all western industrial societies.And the official dogma runs like this: if we are interested in maximizing the welfare of our citizens, the way to do that is to maximize individual freedom.The reason for this is both that freedom is in and of itself good, valuable, worthwhile, essential to being human.And because if people have freedom, then each of us can act on our own to do the things that will maximize our welfare, and no one has to decide on our behalf.The way to maximize freedom is to maximize choice.The more choice people have, the more freedom they have, and the more freedom they have, the more welfare they have.This, I think, is so deeply embedded in the water supply that it wouldn't occur to anyone to question it.And it's also deeply embedded in our lives.I'll give you some examples of what modern progress has made possible for us.This is my supermarket.Not such a big one.I want to say just a word about salad dressing.175 salad dressings in my supermarket, if you don't count the 10 different extra-virgin olive oils and 12 balsamic vinegars you could buy to make a very large number of your own salad dressings, in the off chance that none of the 175 the store has on offer suit you.So this is what the supermarket is like.And then you go to the consumer electronics store to set up a stereo system--speakers, CD player, tape player, tuner, amplifier.And in this one single consumer electronics store, there are that many stereo systems.We can construct six and a half million different stereo systems out of the components that are on offer in one store.You've got to admit that's a lot of choice.In other domains--the world of communications.There was a time, when I was a boy, when you could get any kind of telephone service you wanted, as long as it came from Ma Bell.You rented your phone.You didn't buy it.One consequence of that, by the way, is that the phone never broke.And those days are gone.We now have an almost unlimited variety of phones, especially in the world of cell phones.These are cell phones of the future.My favorite is the middle one--the MP3 player, nose hair trimmer, and creme brulee torch.And if by some chance you haven't seen that in your store yet, you can rest assured that one day soon you will.And what this does is it leads people to walk into their stores asking this question.And do you know what the answer to this question now is? The answer is “No.” It is not possible to buy a cell phone that doesn't do too much.So, in other aspects of life that are much more significant than buying things, The same explosion of choice is true.Health care--it is no longer the case in the United States that you go to the doctor, and the doctor tells you what to do.Instead, you go to the doctor, and the doctor tells you, well, we could do A, or we could do B.A has these benefits, and these risks.B has these benefits, and these risks.What do you want to do? And you say, “Doc, what should I do?” And the doc says, A has these benefits and risks, and B has these benefits and risks.What do you want to do? And you say, “If you were me, Doc, what would you do?” And the doc says, “But I'm not you.” And the result is--we call it “patient autonomy,” which makes it sound like a good thing.But what it really is is a shifting of the burden and the responsibility for decision-making from somebody who knows something--namely the doctor--to somebody who knows nothing and is almost certainly sick and thus not in the best shape to be making decisions--namely the patient.There's enormous marketing of prescription drugs to people like you and me, which, if you think about it, makes no sense at all, since we can't buy them.Why do they market to us if we can't buy them? The answer is that they expect us to call our doctors the next morning and ask prescriptions to be changed.Something as dramatic as our identity has now become a matter of choice, as this slide is meant to indicate.We don't inherit an identity, we get to invent it.And we get to re-invent ourselves as often as we like.And that means that every day when you wake up in the morning, you have to decide what kind of person you want to be.With respect to marriage and family, there was a time when the default assumption that almost everyone had is that you got married as soon as you could, and then you started having kids as soon as you could.The only real choice was who, not when, and not what you did after.Nowadays, everything is very much up for grabs.I teach wonderfully intelligent students, and I assign 20 percent less work than I used to.And it's not because they're less smart, and it's not because they're less diligent.It's because they are preoccupied, asking themselves, “Should I get married or not? Should I get married now? Should I get married later? Should I have kids first, or a career first?” All of these are consuming questions.And they're going to answer these questions, whether or not it means not doing all the work I assign and not getting a good grade in my courses.And indeed they should.These are important questions to answer.Work--we are blessed, as Carl was pointing out, with the technology that enables us to work every minute of every day from any place on the planet--except the Randolph Hotel.(Laughter)

There is one corner, by the way, that I'm not going to tell anybody about, where the WiFi works.I'm not telling you about it because I want to use it.So what this means, this incredible freedom of choice we have with respect to work, is that we have to make a decision, again and again and again, about whether we should or shouldn't be working.We can go to watch our kid play soccer, and we have our cell phone on one hip, and our Blackberry on our other hip, and our laptop, presumably, on our laps.And even if they're all shut off, every minute that we're watching our kid mutilate a soccer game, we are also asking ourselves, “Should I answer this cell phone call? Should I respond to this email? Should I draft this letter?” And even if the answer to the question is “no,” it's certainly going to make the experience of your kid's soccer game very different than it would've been.So everywhere we look, big things and small things, material things and lifestyle things, life is a matter of choice.And the world we used to live in looked like this.That is to say, there were some choices, but not everything was a matter of choice.And the world we now live in looks like this.And the question is, is this good news, or bad news? And the answer is yes.(Laughter)

We all know what's good about it, so I'm going to talk about what's bad about it.All of this choice has two effects, two negative effects on people.One effect, paradoxically, is that it produces paralysis, rather than liberation.With so many options to choose from, people find it very difficult to choose at all.I'll give you one very dramatic example of this, a study that was done of investments in voluntary retirement plans.A colleague of mine got access to investment records from Vanguard, the gigantic mutual fund company of about a million employees and about 2,000 different workplaces.And what she found is that for every 10 mutual funds the employer offered, rate of participation went down two percent.You offer 50 funds--10 percent fewer employees participate than if you only offer five.Why? Because with 50 funds to choose from, it's so damn hard to decide which fund to choose that you'll just put it off until tomorrow.And then tomorrow, and then tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, and of course tomorrow never comes.Understand that not only does this mean that people are going to have to eat dog food when they retire because they don't have enough money to put away, it also means that making the decision is so hard that they pass up significant matching money from the employer.By not participating, they are passing up as much as 5,000 dollars a year from the employer, who would happily match their contribution.So paralysis is a consequence of having too many choices.And I think it makes the world look like this.(Laughter)

You really want to get the decision right if it's for all eternity, right? You don't want to pick the wrong mutual fund, or even the wrong salad dressing.So that's one effect.The second effect is that even if we manage to overcome the paralysis and make a choice, we end up less satisfied with the result of the choice than we would be if we had fewer options to choose from.And there are several reasons for this.One of them is that with a lot of different salad dressings to choose from, if you buy one, and it's not perfect--and, you know, what salad dressing is? It's easy to imagine that you could have made a different choice that would have been better.And what happens is this imagined alternative induces you to regret the decision you made, and this regret subtracts from the satisfaction you get out of the decision you made, even if it was a good decision.The more options there are, the easier it is to regret anything at all that is disappointing about the option that you chose.Second, what economists call opportunity costs.Dan Gilbert made a big point this morning of talking about how much the way in which we value things depends on what we compare them to.Well, when there are lots of alternatives to consider, it is easy to imagine the attractive features of alternatives that you reject, that make you less satisfied with the alternative that you've chosen.Here's an example.For those of you who aren't New Yorkers, I apologize.(Laughter)

But here's what you're supposed to be thinking.Here's this couple on the Hamptons.Very expensive real estate.Gorgeous beach.Beautiful day.They have it all to themselves.What could be better? “Well, damn it,” this guy is thinking, “It's August.Everybody in my Manhattan neighborhood is away.I could be parking right in front of my building.” And he spends two weeks nagged by the idea that he is missing the opportunity, day after day, to have a great parking space.Opportunity costs subtract from the satisfaction we get out of what we choose, even when what we choose is terrific.And the more options there are to consider, the more attractive features of these options are going to be reflected by us as opportunity costs.Here's another example.Now this cartoon makes a lot of points.It makes points about living in the moment as well, and probably about doing things slowly.But one point it makes is that whenever you're choosing one thing, you're choosing not to do other things.And those other things may have lots of attractive features, and it's going to make what you're doing less attractive.Third: escalation of expectations.This hit me when I went to replace my jeans.I wear jeans almost all the time.And there was a time when jeans came in one flavor, and you bought them, and they fit like crap, and they were incredibly uncomfortable, and if you wore them long enough and washed them enough times, they started to feel OK.So I went to replace my jeans after years and years of wearing these old ones, and I said, “You know, I want a pair of jeans, here's my size.” And the shopkeeper said, “Do you want slim fit, easy fit, relaxed fit? You want button fly or zipper fly? You want stonewashed or acid washed? Do you want them distressed? You want boot cut, you want tapered, blah blah blah...” On and on he went.My jaw dropped, and after I recovered, I said, “I want the kind that used to be the only kind.”

(Laughter)

He had no idea what that was, so I spent an hour trying on all these damn jeans, and I walked out of the store--truth be told--with the best fitting jeans I had ever had.I did better.All this choice made it possible for me to do better.But I felt worse.Why? I wrote a whole book to try and explain this to myself.The reason I felt worse is that, with all of these options available, my expectations about how good a pair of jeans should be went up.I had very low expectations.I had no particular expectations when they only came in one flavor.When they came in 100 flavors, damn it, one of them should've been perfect.And what I got was good, but it wasn't perfect.And so I compared what I got to what I expected, and what I got was disappointing in comparison to what I expected.Adding options to people's lives can't help but increase the expectations people have about how good those options will be.And what that's going to produce is less satisfaction with results, even when they're good results.Nobody in the world of marketing knows this.Because if they did, you wouldn't all know what this was about.The truth is more like this.(Laughter)

The reason that everything was better back when everything was worse is that when everything was worse, it was actually possible for people to have experiences that were a pleasant surprise.Nowadays, the world we live in--we affluent, industrialized citizens, with perfection the expectation--the best you can ever hope for is that stuff is as good as you expect it to be.You will never be pleasantly surprised because your expectations, my expectations, have gone through the roof.The secret to happiness--this is what you all came for--the secret to happiness is low expectations.(Laughter)(Applause)

I want to say--just a little autobiographical moment--that I actually am married to a wife, and she's really quite wonderful.I couldn't have done better.I didn't settle.But settling isn't always such a bad thing.Finally, one consequence of buying a bad-fitting pair of jeans when there is only one kind to buy is that when you are dissatisfied, and you ask why, who's responsible, the answer is clear.The world is responsible.What could you do? When there are hundreds of different styles of jeans available, and you buy one that is disappointing, and you ask why, who's responsible? It is equally clear that the answer to the question is you.You could have done better.With a hundred different kinds of jeans on display, there is no excuse for failure.And so when people make decisions, and even though the results of the decisions are good, they feel disappointed about them, they blame themselves.Clinical depression has exploded in the industrial world in the last generation.I believe a significant--not the only, but a significant contributor to this explosion of depression, and also suicide, is that people have experiences that are disappointing because their standards are so high.And then when they have to explain these experiences to themselves, they think they're at fault.And so the net result is that we do better in general, objectively, and we feel worse.So let me remind you.This is the official dogma, the one that we all take to be true, and it's all false.It is not true.There's no question that some choice is better than none, but it doesn't follow from that that more choice is better than some choice.There's some magical amount.I don't know what it is.I'm pretty confident that we have long since passed the point where options improve our welfare.Now, as a policy matter--I'm almost done--as a policy matter, the thing to think about is this.What enables all of this choice in industrial societies is material affluence.There are lots of places in the world, and we have heard about several of them, where their problem is not that they have too much choice.Their problem is that they have too little.So the stuff I'm talking about is the peculiar problem of modern, affluent, Western societies.And what is so frustrating and infuriating is this: Steve Levitt talked to you yesterday about how these expensive and difficult to install child seats don't help.It's a waste of money.What I'm telling you is that these expensive, complicated choices--it's not simply that they don't help.They actually hurt.They actually make us worse off.If some of what enables people in our societies to make all of the choices we make were shifted to societies in which people have too few options, not only would those people's lives be improved, but ours would be improved also.This is what economists call a Pareto-improving move.Income redistribution will make everyone better off--not just poor people--because of how all this excess choice plagues us.So to conclude.You're supposed to read this cartoon, and, being a sophisticated person, say, “Ah!What does this fish know? You know nothing is possible in this fishbowl.” Impoverished imagination, a myopic view of the world--and that's the way I read it at first.The more I thought about it, however, the more I came to the view that this fish knows something.Because the truth of the matter is that if you shatter the fishbowl so that everything is possible, you don't have freedom.You have paralysis.If you shatter this fishbowl so that everything is possible, you decrease satisfaction.You increase paralysis, and you decrease satisfaction.Everybody needs a fishbowl.This one is almost certainly too limited--perhaps even for the fish, certainly for us.But the absence of some metaphorical fishbowl is a recipe for misery, and, I suspect, disaster.Thank you very much.(Applause)

第三篇：電子商務(wù)演講英文稿

Electronic Commerce What is “e-commerce”, how do we define it? The answers has never be same, we can find official and unofficial explanation easily, but as far as my view “e-commerce” is a technical means, and also is a business activity, so I defined it “E-commerce” are a business activities, which based on information network technology means, and commodity exchange.It sounds very “on the big”!In college we have many of “e-commerce” professional, computer science, marketing, management, and so on, which makes us have a strange feeling.However, it is close to us, ticket and hotel reservation, online shopping, issuance of salary and so on.It really helped us a lot,although there is not much money, we don't have to go to the Bank line for wages, thank “e-commerce” for protecting of my pride.Exactly, “e-commerce” to give our lives a sea change, it gives us more choices and more convenience, changing people's lifestyles, consumption and entertainment, makes our quality of life has been unprecedentedly improved;And, It made our office more flexible, faster, safer and wider;Similar, It makes revolutionary changes in the content and forms of education-—Popularity of online education has brought great convenience to people's education.The same time, “E-commerce” also has been leading the all walks of life, transport, agriculture, manufacturing, and so on.In brief, the industry you can think of, it will directly or indirectly to drive it.Unfortunately, everything has two sides just like water can carry a boat also can capsize.When people move to a traditional business online, with the “e-commerce” is understood and accepted, line of business activity of enterprises will lose part of the market, as well a series of stakeholders will also suffer.Balance of interests is an important factor in maintaining social stability and developments, just imagine too many lines of business entities under loss of market with facing bankruptcy, and a large number of unemployed people.Such a society is healthy? A lack of “innovation” of China, the lack of interests would make “innovation” in China becomes more impossible? Obviously, the answer is negative.Indeed, online competition is increasingly fierce, currently system is not fully formed, and result from the competition led to a series of problems is more and more obvious, although consumers will get some benefits for a short time, buat in the long term, in the context of such vicious competition, ultimately affected not just part of the business, but also the consumer.At the last but the first, the “integrity issues”.Trade secrets and customer information is not protected, online fraud、In the name of selling, but real is fraud, poor quality of goods, Without timely delivery, failure to perform a service commitment, illegal business activities and false propaganda, and so on.I would not have said, I think everybody used to be the victim.“E-commerce” is an industry that people enjoy and others worried.What the future of “E-commerce”? Whether it can be robust growth, or in some cases to death? Nurture “e-commerce” needs a wide range of power—The Government's support, economic stability, personnel training, and so on,.Changes in traditional concepts, small farmers, the evolution of consciousness, high code of ethics and conduct is the basis of power.Maybe we can't change the world, but we can change ourselves, to indirectly change the world, because we are the future of the world.控制工程孫洪恩

私有制：中國經(jīng)濟(jì)奇跡的真正源泉

甚至連許多西方經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家都認(rèn)為,中國已經(jīng)找到了主要依靠國家財(cái)政與控制的繁榮之路。但是，他們大錯(cuò)特錯(cuò)了。

2009年3月 ? 黃亞生

美國式資本主義的可信性是全球金融危機(jī)中最早的犧牲品之一。隨著雷曼兄弟銀行的破產(chǎn)倒閉，全世界的權(quán)威評論家一窩蜂地唱衰美國經(jīng)濟(jì)理念——有限政府、最小限度的監(jiān)管和對信貸的自由市場分配等。在考慮以何種模式取代沒落的美國模式時(shí)，有些人把目光轉(zhuǎn)向了中國。在中國，市場受到嚴(yán)格的監(jiān)管，而金融機(jī)構(gòu)則由國家控制。在經(jīng)歷了華爾街的潰敗后，焦躁不安的弗朗西斯?福山在《新聞周刊》（Newsweek）上撰文指出，中國式的國家資本主義“看起來越來越有吸引力了?！薄度A盛頓郵報(bào)》（Washington Post）的專欄作家大衛(wèi)?伊格內(nèi)修斯為基于孔子思想的“新干預(yù)主義”在全球的出現(xiàn)而高聲歡呼；伊格內(nèi)修斯引用理查德?尼克松間接稱頌經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家凱恩斯（John Maynard Keynes）的話說：“現(xiàn)在我們都中國化了。”

但是，在宣布新的中國世紀(jì)的曙光到來之前，全球的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人和高管們需要好好再想一想，中國活力的源泉到底是什么。說到中國經(jīng)濟(jì)奇跡產(chǎn)生的原因，獲得廣泛認(rèn)可的看法——那是專家治國論的勝利，共產(chǎn)黨依靠國家控制的企業(yè)實(shí)現(xiàn)了向市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的逐步轉(zhuǎn)型——從各個(gè)重要方面來講都錯(cuò)了。這種標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的看法認(rèn)為，企業(yè)家精神、私有財(cái)產(chǎn)權(quán)、金融自由化和政治改革對中國的經(jīng)濟(jì)奇跡只發(fā)揮了很小的作用。但是，基于對中國政府的調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)和中央及地方政府文件的詳細(xì)分析，我的研究結(jié)論是，財(cái)產(chǎn)權(quán)和私營企業(yè)是高速增長和貧困水平降低最主要的激勵(lì)因素。

我們經(jīng)常讀到這樣的文章，認(rèn)為漸進(jìn)主義是中國成功地從馬克思主義轉(zhuǎn)型到市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的關(guān)鍵因素；許多文章稱贊北京摒棄了俄羅斯式的休克療法，采用更加務(wù)實(shí)的方法，創(chuàng)建了良好的商業(yè)環(huán)境，讓私營企業(yè)有機(jī)地發(fā)展。這種觀點(diǎn)認(rèn)為，通過在上世紀(jì)80年代首先進(jìn)行小范圍改革，中國經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的自由度和市場導(dǎo)向水平逐漸提高，并在90年代后期積蓄了發(fā)展動(dòng)力。但事實(shí)并非如此。實(shí)際發(fā)生的情況是，上世紀(jì)80年代進(jìn)行的金融自由化和私營企業(yè)的早期地方性試驗(yàn)，催生了鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)最初的蓬勃發(fā)展。正是這些早期的收獲——而并非國家主導(dǎo)的大規(guī)?；A(chǔ)設(shè)施投資和90年代的城市化——為中國奇跡奠定了真正的基礎(chǔ)。盡管有許多專家將中國宏大的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施項(xiàng)目和利用外國資金建設(shè)的嶄新工廠與印度破敗不堪的公路和微不足道的外國直接投資流進(jìn)行比較，但這種觀點(diǎn)夸大了公共開支和外國投資對中國發(fā)展的貢獻(xiàn)。直到上世紀(jì)90年代后期以前，這兩種因素在中國的影響力所占比重都不大——它們的出現(xiàn)比80年代寬松的金融控制和最初的鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)發(fā)展大潮要晚得多。在上世紀(jì)80年代，中國經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展要比90年代快得多，并且產(chǎn)生了更好的社會(huì)效益：貧困人口下降，貧富差距縮小，而且勞動(dòng)力在GDP中所占份額——衡量從經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展中人均獲益的指標(biāo)——顯著上升。從1978年到1988年，生活水平低于中國貧困線的農(nóng)村人口減少了1.5億以上。而在90年代，盡管GDP幾乎都達(dá)到了兩位數(shù)增長，并且實(shí)施了大規(guī)模的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)，但貧困人口數(shù)量卻只下降了6,000萬。此外，在80年代，中國經(jīng)濟(jì)增長主要靠投資而不是消費(fèi)驅(qū)動(dòng)的程度遠(yuǎn)不像今天這樣嚴(yán)重。

換句話說，企業(yè)資本主義與國家資本主義不同，它不僅帶來了增長，而且還對增長所帶來的利益進(jìn)行了廣泛的分配。企業(yè)主義（Entrepreneurialism）既充滿活力，又符合社會(huì)道德。

西方媒體總愛把像北京、上海和深圳這樣的大城市稱頌為生機(jī)勃勃的發(fā)展中心（見圖表）。而中國的農(nóng)村地區(qū)，即使被提到，也通常被形容為貧困的窮鄉(xiāng)僻壤。但是，只要對經(jīng)濟(jì)數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析，就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，對中國現(xiàn)代化城市高樓大廈的這些令人震撼的描述完全是一種誤導(dǎo)：事實(shí)上，中國的農(nóng)村才具有最大的經(jīng)濟(jì)活力，而政府的強(qiáng)勢干預(yù)已經(jīng)窒息了中心城市的企業(yè)家精神和所有權(quán)。

后一種觀點(diǎn)的重要性無論怎樣強(qiáng)調(diào)都不過分。中國資本主義的發(fā)展歷史事實(shí)上大部分都可以被描述為兩個(gè)中國的斗爭：由市場推動(dòng)的、富有企業(yè)家精神的農(nóng)村與由國家主導(dǎo)的城市之間的斗爭。無論何時(shí)何地，只要中國農(nóng)村占據(jù)優(yōu)勢地位，中國的資本主義就是企業(yè)式的、獨(dú)立于政治的，并且是充滿競爭活力的。無論何時(shí)何地，只要中國城市占據(jù)主導(dǎo)地位，中國的資本主義就會(huì)朝著依賴于政治和國家集權(quán)的方向發(fā)展。

上海是中國城市發(fā)展最顯著的象征，其現(xiàn)代化的摩天大樓、外國奢侈品商店和全國最高的人均GDP使其成為中國的模范城市——一個(gè)國家資本主義獲得成功的最好例證。事實(shí)果真如此嗎？采用更具有實(shí)際意義的經(jīng)濟(jì)成就指標(biāo)來衡量，上海的發(fā)展遠(yuǎn)不及溫州。溫州是位于上海南邊數(shù)百英里以外一個(gè)浙江省的城市，這里是企業(yè)資本主義的一片樂土。上世紀(jì)80年代初期，使溫州聞名于世的僅僅是它那勤勞的農(nóng)民。當(dāng)時(shí)，在溫州的500萬居民中，城市人口還不到10%。如今，溫州是中國最具活力的城市，其數(shù)量眾多的企業(yè)主宰著歐洲的服裝市場。而相比之下，曾經(jīng)是中國最早的實(shí)業(yè)家樂園的上海，如今卻很少涌現(xiàn)出本土企業(yè)家。

溫州的轉(zhuǎn)型幾乎完全是靠自由市場政策來實(shí)現(xiàn)的。早在1982年，當(dāng)?shù)毓賳T就開始試行民間借貸、自由利率、存貸款機(jī)構(gòu)的跨地區(qū)競爭，以及向私營企業(yè)提供貸款等。溫州市政府還大力保護(hù)私營企業(yè)家的財(cái)產(chǎn)權(quán)，并從其他諸多方面使城市更有利于企業(yè)的發(fā)展。

本土企業(yè)為民生福祉帶來了什么變化嗎？非常多。按人均GDP計(jì)，上海幾乎是溫州所在的浙江省的兩倍（難以獲得溫州人均GDP的詳細(xì)數(shù)據(jù)）。但是，如果衡量家庭收入——一般居民的實(shí)際的支出能力——這兩個(gè)地區(qū)的繁榮程度就旗鼓相當(dāng)了。2006年，一個(gè)典型上海居民的家庭收入比一個(gè)典型浙江居民的家庭收入高13%，但上海居民的非工薪收入水平（如政府福利）卻幾乎是浙江居民的兩倍。兩地居民的平均勞動(dòng)收入大體相當(dāng)。平均來看，上海居民從經(jīng)營企業(yè)中獲得的收入比浙江居民低44%，而從所擁有的資產(chǎn)中獲得的收入則要低34%。這就意味著：國家資本主義可以提高城市高樓大廈的樓高和GDP的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)，但并未提升居民的實(shí)際生活水平。

如果研究一下浙江省與其北部近鄰江蘇省的經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況，這種對比就會(huì)更加清晰。這兩個(gè)省份可以進(jìn)行近乎完美的比較。它們的地理?xiàng)l件差不多相同：都是沿海省份，江蘇位于上海北面，而浙江位于上海南面。它們還擁有相似的企業(yè)發(fā)展歷史：都對解放前上海的實(shí)業(yè)家

和企業(yè)家階層做出過重大貢獻(xiàn)。然而，在改革以后的若干年里，江蘇省吸引了外國投資并從公共建設(shè)工程開支中受益頗多，而浙江省卻不然。這種差異產(chǎn)生了令人吃驚的結(jié)果。

20年前，江蘇省比浙江省更為富庶，但如今卻比浙江窮，在每一項(xiàng)重要的經(jīng)濟(jì)和社會(huì)福利指標(biāo)上都落后于浙江。平均來看，浙江居民的資產(chǎn)性收入要大大高于其北方鄰省的居民，他們居住的房子更大，擁有電話、計(jì)算機(jī)、彩電、相機(jī)或汽車的比例更高。浙江的嬰兒死亡率更低，浙江人的平均預(yù)期壽命更長，識字率也更高。值得注意的是，浙江的收入不平等程度也遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)低于江蘇。應(yīng)該如何解釋浙江更勝一籌的繁榮呢？最令人信服的解釋是，在江蘇，政府對經(jīng)濟(jì)干預(yù)過多，歧視本地企業(yè)而青睞外國資本；而浙江的官員則讓本土企業(yè)家擁有自由支配權(quán)，允許他們構(gòu)建更大、更富有活力的本地供應(yīng)鏈。

中國經(jīng)濟(jì)奇跡的真正難解之處并不是其經(jīng)濟(jì)如何發(fā)展，而是西方專家為何對其發(fā)展歷程的理解錯(cuò)誤百出。一個(gè)原因是，這些外來旁觀者誤解了構(gòu)成中國經(jīng)濟(jì)體系最基本的元素之一——鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)——的性質(zhì)。一些西方最知名的經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家將鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)稱為具有中國特色——具有創(chuàng)新意義的混合體，在政府的控制下實(shí)現(xiàn)了高速增長——的資本主義象征。例如，諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)得主約瑟夫?斯蒂格里茲就稱贊鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)為從社會(huì)主義到資本主義轉(zhuǎn)型時(shí)最常見的問題——私人投資者的資產(chǎn)剝離——提供了具有獨(dú)創(chuàng)性的解決方案1他認(rèn)為，這些企業(yè)既具有公有制的形式，可以避免被掠奪，同時(shí)又能實(shí)現(xiàn)私營企業(yè)的高效率。

簡而言之，西方經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家常常認(rèn)為鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)歸鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)政府所有。就在2005年，另一位諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)得主道格拉斯?羅斯在《華爾街日報(bào)》上撰文指出，鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)“與經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)中的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)企業(yè)很少有相似之處” 2。但有證據(jù)表明，情況并非如此。在中國國務(wù)院1984年3月1日發(fā)布的一份政策性文件中，第一次正式提到了鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)的名稱。該文件將它們定義為“由鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)主辦的企業(yè)、由農(nóng)民組成的聯(lián)合企業(yè)、其他聯(lián)合企業(yè)和個(gè)體企業(yè)。”“由鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)主辦的企業(yè)”一詞指的是歸鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)所有并管理的集體企業(yè)。該政策文件中提到的所有其他企業(yè)均為私營企業(yè)：個(gè)人所有的企業(yè)或有多個(gè)股東的較大型企業(yè)——都是嚴(yán)格意義上的“經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)中的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)企業(yè)”。官方對“鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)”一詞的使用具有非常顯著的一致性：它一直是既包括私營企業(yè)，也包括政府主辦的企業(yè)。

西方經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家之所以會(huì)犯錯(cuò)誤，是因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)定該名稱涉及到所有制。但中國官方卻從地理含義上去理解它——位于鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)的企業(yè)。中國農(nóng)業(yè)部的記錄證明，私人擁有并管理的企業(yè)實(shí)體在鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)中占絕大部分。在1985年到2002年期間，集體所有制企業(yè)的數(shù)量于1986年達(dá)到頂峰，為173萬家，而私營企業(yè)的數(shù)量卻迅猛增長，從大約1050萬家增加到超過2,000萬家。換句話說，在改革時(shí)期，鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)數(shù)量的增長完全歸功于私營企業(yè)。到1990年，在改革的頭10年中，此類私營企業(yè)雇用的勞動(dòng)力數(shù)量占到了鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)雇用勞動(dòng)力總數(shù)的50%，而稅后利潤則占到了58%。

對中國發(fā)展的真正源泉的思想混亂也攪亂了外國人對中國企業(yè)出現(xiàn)在國際市場上的理解認(rèn)知。人們常說，中國為全球競爭帶來了新的企業(yè)模式，國家所有制與明智的運(yùn)用政府對金融的控制相結(jié)合，創(chuàng)造了獨(dú)一無二的競爭力源泉。計(jì)算機(jī)制造商聯(lián)想公司就經(jīng)常被贊頌為中國非傳統(tǒng)商業(yè)環(huán)境中的一個(gè)杰作。

但是，聯(lián)想的成功大部分要?dú)w功于其早期便在香港注冊并在香港募集資本的能力，而香港被認(rèn)為是世界上最自由的市場經(jīng)濟(jì)。1984年，聯(lián)想公司從中國科學(xué)院獲得了第一筆啟

動(dòng)資金，但其后所有重大投資的資金均來自于香港3。1988年，該公司從總部位于香港的中國技術(shù)公司獲得了90萬港幣（11.6萬美元）的投資，成立了合資公司，使聯(lián)想能夠?qū)⑾愀圩鳛槠浞ǘǖ墓舅诘亍?993年，香港聯(lián)想公司在香港證券交易所首次公開上市，集資1,200萬美元。聯(lián)想公司是香港基于市場的金融與法律體系的成功故事，而并非中國由國家控制的金融體系的成功案例。

當(dāng)中國在汲取華爾街崩潰的教訓(xùn)，并準(zhǔn)備應(yīng)對全球經(jīng)濟(jì)低迷之時(shí)，它可能做的最糟糕的事情莫過于去接受它已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了比自由市場更高效的發(fā)展模式的說法。中國經(jīng)濟(jì)奇跡的真正經(jīng)驗(yàn)其實(shí)非常傳統(tǒng)——基于私有制和自由市場金融。中國的經(jīng)驗(yàn)為全世界提供了非常及時(shí)的提示：旨在鼓勵(lì)這些力量發(fā)展的改革的確奏效。

Tony Porter 談對男性的呼吁

我在紐約長大，位于哈萊姆區(qū)跟布朗克斯區(qū)之間。作為男孩子，大人教給我們，男人必須要堅(jiān)決，要強(qiáng)壯，要勇敢，要強(qiáng)硬；不許痛苦，不許表露情感，憤怒除外。當(dāng)然，也不能畏縮。男性負(fù)責(zé)，也就是說女性不用。男性引路，你們只要跟著照做就好。男性高一等，女性低一等。男性強(qiáng)大，女性弱小。女性價(jià)值不大，是男性的所有物，是物品。更確切說，是性對象。后來我知道，那是男性的社會(huì)形象標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，或稱其為“男子漢的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)”?？纯催@里面都有什么，所有關(guān)于如何做

才夠男人的定義。我還想說，毫無疑問，作為男人，有很多美好的事情，非常美好。但與此同時(shí)，有些東西實(shí)在非常糾結(jié)。我們確實(shí)需要開始質(zhì)疑它，審視它，并對我們所熟知的男子漢標(biāo)準(zhǔn)進(jìn)行拆析和重定義。

這是我的兩個(gè)孩子，Kendall和Jay，一個(gè)11歲，一個(gè)12歲。Kendall比Jay大15個(gè)月。有段時(shí)間我的妻子，她叫Tammie，還有我，我們非常忙，叮，咚，當(dāng)，Kendall和Jay誕生了。（笑聲）當(dāng)他們長到五六歲，四五歲時(shí)，Jay可以過來，哭著跑過來。至于她為什么哭沒有關(guān)系，她可以趴在我的膝蓋上，拿我的袖子擦鼻涕。哭吧，大聲哭，爸爸在呢，就是這樣。

另一方面，如果Kendall，如我所說，他只比妹妹大15個(gè)月，他哭著跑過來，或是只要我聽到他的哭聲，就要拉警報(bào)了。我會(huì)給他大約30秒的時(shí)間，也就是說，等他到我跟前，我就會(huì)說，“你哭什么哭？抬起頭來，看著我，告訴我怎么了？告訴我怎么了？我不能理解，你為什么哭？”由于自己的失職，我有責(zé)任和義務(wù)把他教育成一個(gè)男人，讓他符合這些男子漢標(biāo)準(zhǔn)中的條條框框。我發(fā)現(xiàn)我會(huì)這么說，“回你的房間去?；厝?，回你的房間。坐下，振作一下，再回來跟我說話，當(dāng)你可以像...” 像什么？（觀眾：男人）“像男人一樣。”他才五歲。當(dāng)我這么做的時(shí)候，我會(huì)對自己說，“天呢，我是怎么了？我在做什么？我為什么要這樣？”回想一下，我想到了我父親。

有一段時(shí)間，我們家發(fā)生了一次很痛苦的經(jīng)歷。我哥哥，Henry，當(dāng)我們十幾歲的時(shí)候，他死于不幸。如我所說，我們住在紐約，當(dāng)時(shí)我們住在布朗克斯區(qū)。葬禮在一個(gè)叫長島的地方舉行，距市區(qū)有兩小時(shí)車程。當(dāng)我們準(zhǔn)備從墓地返回時(shí)，車子停在洗手間旁，讓大家在長途返回之前下車方便一下。隨后人們都下車了，我母親，我姐姐，我姑姑，她們都出去了，只有我爸爸和我留在車?yán)铩Ｅ藗冸x

開不久，他便放聲大哭。他不想在我面前哭，但他知道，回去的路上他會(huì)忍不住的。在我面前哭，要比在有女性的場合下哭的好。這個(gè)男人，在10分鐘之前，剛剛把他年幼的兒子親手埋葬。這種痛苦是我無法想象的。我印象最深的是，他為在我面前哭而向我道歉。同時(shí)，他還給我鼓勵(lì)，把我舉起來，因?yàn)槲覜]哭。

我重新審視這件事。作為男人，我們會(huì)害怕，這種害怕讓我們癱瘓，讓我們成為男子漢的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的奴隸。我還記得跟一個(gè)12歲男孩的對話，他是足球選手。我問他，我說，“如果當(dāng)著所有隊(duì)員的面，教練說你踢球像個(gè)女孩，你會(huì)怎么樣？”我本以為他會(huì)說，我會(huì)很傷心，很憤怒，很生氣之類的。但不，男孩這么跟我說，男孩說，“這會(huì)把我毀掉?！庇谑俏易詥?，“天呢，如果被稱作女孩就會(huì)把他毀掉，那么關(guān)于女孩，我們都教給他些什么？”

（掌聲）

這把我?guī)Щ亓宋业?2歲那年。我在市區(qū)的廉租公寓長大，那時(shí)我們住在布朗克斯區(qū)。一個(gè)叫Johnny的家伙住在我家附近，他當(dāng)時(shí)16歲左右，我們都12歲左右，比較小。他總是跟我們這些小孩呆在一起。這個(gè)家伙，他經(jīng)常不干好事。他讓很多家長感到奇怪，“這個(gè)16歲孩子，在一群12歲孩子中做什么？”他也確實(shí)不做好事。他是個(gè)問題少年，母親因海洛因攝入過量而死，奶奶把他養(yǎng)大，父親不管他。他奶奶有兩份工作，他經(jīng)常獨(dú)自在家。我說過，我們都是小孩，得仰望這個(gè)大哥哥。他很酷，他很好。這是那些小妹妹說的，“他很好?！彼鲞^愛，我們都仰望他。

一天，我出門玩，就在周圍玩，我記不得在玩什么。他在窗口，叫我上去。他說，“嘿，Anthony?！毙r(shí)候他叫我Anthony?！昂伲珹nthony，快上來?！盝ohnny

叫我，我就去。我跑上樓。他打開門后，對我說，“你想要嗎？”我立刻明白了他的意思。因?yàn)樵谖覀冮L大的那個(gè)年代，根據(jù)當(dāng)時(shí)的男子漢標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，“你想要嗎”只有兩層意思，不是性就是毒品。而我們不吸毒。我的準(zhǔn)則，我的男子漢準(zhǔn)則，立刻受到威脅。有兩點(diǎn)：一，我沒做過愛。男人之間不討論這個(gè)。你只會(huì)告訴最親密的朋友，讓他發(fā)誓保密，跟他講你的第一次。而對其他人，則會(huì)說我兩歲就開始做愛了，沒什么第一次可言。（笑聲）另一點(diǎn)我不能說的是，我不想要。這樣更糟。我們應(yīng)該時(shí)刻窺伺，女性只是物品，確切說，是性對象?？傊@些我都不能說。所以，就如我母親所言，長話短說，我只是對Johnny說，“好?！彼屛业剿块g里。我進(jìn)去了，躺在床上的是個(gè)叫Sheila的鄰居女孩，她16歲，全身赤裸?，F(xiàn)在來看，她有心理疾病，有時(shí)會(huì)比其他人更自閉。我們給她取了很多不好的綽號。總之，Johnny剛跟她做完愛。其實(shí)，他強(qiáng)奸了她，但他會(huì)說是做愛。因?yàn)椋?dāng)時(shí)Sheila沒有說“不”，她也沒說“是”。

因此他給我機(jī)會(huì)也這樣做。于是我走進(jìn)去，關(guān)上門。各位，我呆住了。我依門而立，這樣Johnny不能破門而入，發(fā)現(xiàn)我什么都沒干。我站了好長一會(huì)，長到足夠我干點(diǎn)什么了。現(xiàn)在，我想的不是要做什么，而是要怎么出去。我只有12歲，但很聰明。我把褲拉鏈拉下來，走進(jìn)客廳。我看到的是，當(dāng)我和Sheila在房間里時(shí)，Johnny到窗邊招呼別人上來，所以現(xiàn)在滿屋子都是人，就像醫(yī)生的候診室。他們問我感覺如何，我對他們說，“感覺不錯(cuò)。”然后在他們面前拉上褲拉鏈，走出門去。

我是帶著愧疚說出這段的。當(dāng)時(shí)我也帶著極大的愧疚感，但我很矛盾。因?yàn)槲腋械嚼⒕蔚耐瑫r(shí)，又感到興奮，我沒被抓住。而對發(fā)生的一切，我覺得糟糕。這種害怕脫離了男子漢的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，完全包住了我。對我來說，我和我的男子漢標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，曾經(jīng)比Sheila和她的遭遇更重要。總的來說，我們作為男人，被教育說女性價(jià)值

不大，把她們看做所有物，看做男人的性對象，這就形成一個(gè)等式，等號右邊是對女性的暴力侵害。我們作為男人，作為好男人，就如大多數(shù)的男人，我們所做的事，都是在這個(gè)社會(huì)形象標(biāo)準(zhǔn)下進(jìn)行。我們以為自己不在此列，但其實(shí)我們正是其中之一?？吹搅藛幔覀儽仨毭靼?，這類價(jià)值不大，所有物，性對象的觀念，致使暴力現(xiàn)象頻頻發(fā)生。因此解決辦法就在我們身上，同時(shí)問題也在我們身上。疾病控制中心說過，男性對女性的暴力現(xiàn)象，已達(dá)到流行病的普遍程度，是女性的最大健康隱憂。國內(nèi)如此，國外亦如此。

所以我再簡單說幾句。這是我生命中的摯愛，我女兒Jay，我希望她的世界里，我會(huì)希望男性如何對待女性？我需要你們與我一道，共同努力。你我共同合作，致力于如何培養(yǎng)我們的兒子，教導(dǎo)他們成為男人?？梢圆粡?qiáng)硬，也可以表露情感，可以促進(jìn)平等，可以擁有女性朋友，就是這樣，可以做一個(gè)完整的人。我們男性的解放，與你們女性的解放相依存。我問過一個(gè)九歲男孩，我問他說，“如果你不用再遵循這些男子漢標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，你會(huì)怎樣？”他告訴我，“我就自由了?！?/p>
