As for this essay, I want the person who likes travel to read. And, I alsowant the person who yearns to the solitary journey to read.
I like travel very much. I often go to travel. It meets a lot of peoplewhen traveling. It can touch not only the person but also the region. Therefore,it comes to want to go even times how many.
I was traveling and all the people met had a very warm mind. It was verykind. There is a person who taught variety of land, too. I do not think meetingwith two another degrees in the person. However, I do not think that I forget.Because, The reason is that there are a lot of very good memories.
Therefore, travel is not stopped. It went to not only the country but alsoforeign countries. The communication of the intention can have been done withthe person in the country though the word did not run well. However, I thoughtthat the handicap of the word was large. I thought it was good if the word couldbe understood more many times. Therefore, I think that I should study thelanguage study more. It can meet the one different according to the land whentraveling. The tourist spot is, and there is a lot of one not so either. Thereare a lot of very good points of the place taught to the person in local.Therefore, it is always made to speak. I have not traveled still alone. I wantto go out to travel alone sometimes. How about you? Traveling with someone isalso good. However, I yearn to the solitary journey very much. It is not, andyearns for the destination to free travel. I want to go out to unrestrainedtravel some time.
Finally, I yearn to the solitary journey. However, I do not hate tourtravel. I think that there is a merit also in the tour. I think that travelingwith the person who does not know also has the enjoyment. However, I likeindependent tour more. Which do you like?
我当时正在旅行，所有的人都有一个非常温暖的心。这是很好。也有一个人教授各种各样的土地。我不认为在这个人身上有两个学位。然而，我不认为我忘记了。因为，原因是有很多美好的回忆。
因此，旅行并没有停止。不仅是国家，而且是外国。尽管这个词的运行不太好，但意图的传达却可以与这个国家的人进行。然而，我认为这个词的障碍很大。我认为如果这个词能被理解更多的次数，那就更好了。因此，我认为我应该更多地学习语言学习。在旅行时，它可以根据陆地的不同而不同。旅游景点是，也有很多人不是这样。这个地方有很多很好的地方教当地人。因此，它总是被用来说话。我没有独自旅行。我有时想单独出去旅行。你呢?和别人一起旅行也很好。然而，我非常渴望孤独的旅程。它不是，并渴望自由旅行的目的地。我想出去旅行一段时间。
最后，我渴望孤独的旅程。然而，我并不讨厌旅行。我认为这次旅行也有一定的价值。我认为和不认识的人一起旅行也有乐趣。不过，我更喜欢独立旅行。你喜欢哪一个?
New Year’s Day looks like a little child who is jumping and laughing.Itbrings a sense of happiness and fortune. On that day we give our friends andteachers lots of presents to express our deep love and best wishes. We all wearnew clothes.We recall “yesterday” the moment we hope we can have a good newyear. The New Year means that we will begin a completely new life. our classheld a party to celebrate the New Year’s Day, our classroom which was decoratedmeticulously was more beautiful than before;smile lit up everyone’s face. A lotof wonderful programs were put on by our classmates. We were attracted by thehumorous performance. Smile became a theme on that day. After theperformances,we saw a film whose leading actors are Jackie Chen, Gu Tianle and a baby. We allhad a good evening.New Year’s Day means beginning a new era. There are manyunforgettable things in the year , but I believe I can do better next year,whichis filled with hope and happiness.I want to fly because I have a dream! I wantto fly because I have confidence.
新年像一个小男孩，他又蹦又跳，给人带来幸福和好运。在那一天，我们送给我们的朋友和老师许多礼物，表达我们深深的爱和良好祝愿。我们都穿新衣服，回忆起昨天，希望我们能过个好的新年。新的一年意味着我们将开始全新的生活。我们班举办了一个庆祝新年的晚会，我们精心布置的教室比以前更漂亮了，笑容照亮了每个人的脸。同学们上演了许多精彩的节目。我们被幽默的表演吸引住了。那天微笑成了一个主题。演出结束后，我们看了一部电影的主角是JackieChen，顾天乐和一个婴儿。我们都度过了一个愉快的夜晚。元旦意味着开始一个新时代。这一年有很多难忘的事情，但我相信明年我会做得更好，充满希望和幸福。我想飞因为我有梦想!我想飞因为我有信心。
every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. my friends will listen to me when i want to speak, will wipe my eyes when i cry, will take care of me when i am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
as students, we could share more time with our friends. the friendship in our young hearts is pure, fresh and simple. i often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends. especially when i had justin as one of my best friends. justin was my english teacher from the usa. i met him in 1996 when i was a student who could only speak very little english. justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face, and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive. he taught us english by telling stories, playing games, singing songs, and even dancing.
i could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin-ished our class, we went to some other classes to sing songs for them, just like what people do in the states on christmas eve. it was so interesting and unforgettable. justin was an excellent teacher, because he taught us not only how to study english well, but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others' lives. i know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts. facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important, the real importance lay in faith, under-standing, and care. justin is the best friend i have ever had, and i know i will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory.
In the end of the year, people held many activities to celebrate andwelcome the New Year. In my school, we held a New Year party every year.Students like taking part in it very much, because it is really funny. Thisyear, I dance with my classmates. We prepare for it a month ago. Our teacherhelps us a lot. We work very hard to dance it well. Now, tomorrow is the partytime. I am sure we will be great in the party.
今年年底，人们举行了许多活动来庆祝新年。在我的学校，我们每年举行一次新年晚会。学生们非常喜欢参加，因为它真的很有趣。今年，我和同学们跳舞。我们一个月前就准备好了。我们的老师帮助了我们很多。我们很努力地把它跳得很好。现在，明天是聚会时间。我相信我们会在晚会上表现得很好。
When clock is belling,my heart ripple along with it,to distant with you,transmit my missing,to be joyful!My dear friend!
Please open the window,let the new year's wind blow your room and the snow flying in,my warming wish flutter to your heart!
Flowers are disseminationing fragrant,friendship transmissing warm,hope us to brimming in a happy year,wishes you: Happy New Year! Best wishes! Does not experience the wind and rain, how can see the rainbow?nobody can casually succeed!So refuel!The same as New year!

Transcr ipt of Apple CEO Tim Cook's commencement address at Tulane University
苹果CEO蒂姆·库克杜兰大学毕业典礼演讲致词
Hello Tulane! Thank you President Fitts, Provost Forman, distinguished faculty, other faculty (laughs), and the entire Tulane family, including the workers, ushers, (and) volunteers who prepared this beautiful space. And I feel duty-bound to also recognize the hard-working bartenders at The Boot. Though they're not here with us this morning, I'm sure some of you are reflecting on their contributions as well. (The Boot is a popular college bar right next to Tulane's campus which has been around for decades.)
你好，杜兰大学！感谢菲茨校长、福尔曼教务长、尊敬的教职员工、其他教职员工[笑]以及整个杜兰大家庭，包括为这个美丽的讲堂做准备的工作人员、引座员和志愿者。我觉得我有责任也称赞一下在The Boot工作的辛勤的调酒师。虽然他们今天早上没有和我们在一起，但我相信你们中的一些人也在反思他们的贡献。[The Boot是一家受欢迎的大学酒吧，紧挨着杜兰大学校园，已经存在了几十年了。]
And just as many of you have New Orleans in your veins, and perhaps your livers, some of us at Apple have New Orleans in our blood as well. When I was a student at Auburn, the Big Easy was our favorite getaway. It's amazing how quickly those 363 miles fly by when you're driving toward a weekend of beignets and beer. And how slowly they go in the opposite direction. Apple's own Lisa Jackson is a proud Tulane alum. Yes. She brought the Green Wave all the way to Cupertino where she heads our environment and public policy work. We're thrilled to have her talent and leadership on our team.
就像你们中很多人的血管里也许还有肝脏里有新奥尔良一样，我们苹果公司的一些人的血液里也有新奥尔良。当我还是奥本大学的学生的时候，我们最喜欢的度假胜地是Big Easy。非常神奇的是，当你在周末开车驶向这个胜地，想象着甜甜圈和啤酒的时候，363英里的距离似乎一闪而过；而当你返程时，路途却显得那么遥远。苹果的员工丽莎-杰克逊(LisaJackson)是一位令人骄傲的杜兰大学校友。是。她把绿色浪潮一路带到了库比蒂诺，在那里她领导着我们的环境和公共政策工作。我们很高兴她能在我们的队伍中发挥才华和进行领导。
OK, enough about us. Let's talk about you. At moments like this, it always humbles me to watch a community come together to teach, mentor, advise, and finally say with one voice, congratulations to the class of 20xx!
好了，别再提我们了。让我们谈谈你们。在这样的时刻，看到一个社区聚集在一起传道受业解惑，最后用一个声音说，祝贺20xx年的同学们，这让我感到很谦卑！
Now there's another very important group: your family and friends. The people who, more than anyone else, loved, supported, and even sacrificed greatly to help you reach this moment. Let's give them a round of applause. This will be my first piece of advice. You might not appreciate until much later in your life how much this moment means to them. Or how that bond of obligation, love, and duty between you matters more than anything else.
现在还有一个非常重要的群体：你们的家人和朋友。那些比任何人都更爱你们、更支持你们、甚至甘愿自我牺牲的人，为了帮助你们达到这一时刻，他们付出了巨大的代价。让我们为他们鼓掌。这将是我的第一条建议。直到你生命的后期，你们才会意识到这一刻对他们来说有多么重要，或者意识到你们的义务、爱和责任有多么重要。
In fact, that's what I really want to talk to you about today. In a world where we obsessively document our own lives, most of us don't pay nearly enough attention to what we owe one another. Now this isn't just about calling your parents more, although I'm sure they'd be grateful if you did that. It's about recognizing that human civilization began when we realized that we could do more together. That the threats and danger outside the flickering firelight got smaller when we got bigger. And that we could create more - more prosperity, more beauty, more wisdom, and a better life - when we acknowledge certain shared truths and acted collectively.
事实上，这就是我今天真正想和你们说的。在一个我们沉迷于记录自己生活的世界里，我们中的大多数人对我们彼此亏欠的东西没有给予足够的关注。这不仅仅是给你们的父母打更多的电话，尽管我相信如果你们会这么做，他们会很感激的。当我们意识到我们可以在一起做更多的事情时，人类文明就开始了。当我们变得更越来越强大时，在闪烁的火光之外的威胁和危险就会变得越来越小。我们可以创造更多——更多的繁荣，更多的美，更多的智慧，更美好的生活——只要我们承认某些共同的真理并采取集体行动。
Maybe I'm biased, but I've always thought the South, and the Gulf Coast in particular, have hung on to this wisdom better than most. (Tim Cook grew up in Robertsdale, Alabama, which is about an hour from New Orleans and is similarly close to the Gulf of Mexico.) In this part of the country, your neighbors check up on you if they haven't heard from you in a while. Good news travels fast because your victories are their victories too. And you can't make it through someone's front door before they offer you a home-cooked meal.
也许我有偏见，但我一直认为南方，特别是墨西哥湾海岸，比大多数人更能坚持这一智慧。[库克在阿拉巴马州的罗伯茨代尔长大，那里距离新奥尔良大约一个小时的路程，同样靠近墨西哥湾。]在这个国家的这个地方，如果你们的邻居有一段时间没有你们的消息，他们会忍不住来看望你们。好消息传得很快，因为你们的胜利也是他们的胜利。在他们提供一顿热饭热菜招待你们之前，你们是不可能走出大门的。
Maybe you haven't thought about it very much, but these values have informed your Tulane education too. Just look at the motto: not for one's self, but for one's own. You've been fortunate to live, learn, and grow in a city where human currents blend into something magical and unexpected. Where unmatched beauty, natural beauty, literary beauty, musical beauty, cultural beauty, seem to spring unexpectedly from the bayou. The people of New Orleans use two tools to build this city: the unlikely and the impossible. Wherever you go, don't forget the lessons of this place. Life will always find lots of ways to tell you no, that you can't, that you shouldn't, that you'd be better off if you didn't try. But New Orleans teaches us there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than trying. Especially when we do it not in the service of one's self, but one's own.
也许你们还没有想太多，但这些价值观也影响了你们杜兰大学的教育。看看这句座右铭：不是为了自己，而是为了自己人。你们很幸运地生活、学习和成长在一座城市里，在这个城市里，人类的潮流融合成了一种神奇的、意想不到的东西。在那里，无与伦比的美，自然的美，文学的美，音乐的美，文化的美，似乎不期而至地从河口涌出。新奥尔良的人们使用两种工具来建造这座城市：不太可能的和不可能的。无论你走到哪里，都不要忘记这个地方的教训。生活总会找到很多方法来告诉你，不，你不能，你不应该，如果你不去尝试，你会过得更好。但是新奥尔良告诉我们，没有什么比尝试更美丽和更有价值了。尤其是当我们这样做不是为自己服务，而是为自己人服务的时候。
For me, it was that search for greater purpose that brought me to Apple in the first place. I had a comfortable job at a company called Compaq that at the time looked like it was going to be on top forever. As it turns out, most of you are probably too young to even remember its name. But in 1998, Steve Jobs convinced me to leave Compaq behind to join a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy. They made computers, but at that moment at least, people weren't interested in buying them. Steve had a plan to change things. And I wanted to be a part of it.
对我来说，正是为了追求更伟大的目标，我才第一次来到苹果。我曾在一家叫康柏(Compaq)的公司找到了一份舒适的工作，在当时看来，这份工作将永远是的工作。事实证明，你们中的大多数人可能还太年轻，甚至不记得它的名字。但在1998年，史蒂夫-乔布斯说服我离开康柏，加入一家濒临破产的苹果公司。他们制造电脑，但至少在那一刻，人们对购买这些电脑并不感兴趣。史蒂夫有个改变一切的计划。我也想成为其中的一员。
It wasn't just about the iMac, or the iPod, or everything that came after. It was about the values that brought these inventions to life. The idea that putting powerful tools in the hands of everyday people helps unleash creativity and move humanity forward. That we can build things that help us imagine a better world and then make it real.
这不仅仅是iMac，或者iPod，或者之后的一切，而是使这些发明创意复活的价值观念。把强大的工具放在普通人手中将有助于释放创造力和推动人类向前发展。我们可以建造一些东西来帮助我们想象一个更美好的世界，然后让它成为现实。
There's a saying that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. At Apple, I learned that's a total crock. You'll work harder than you ever thought possible, but the tools will feel light in your hands. As you go out into the world, don't waste time on problems that have been solved. Don't get hung up on what other people say is practical. Instead, steer your ship into the choppy seas. Look for the rough spots, the problems that seem too big, the complexities that other people are content to work around. It's in those places that you will find your purpose. It's there that you can make your greatest contribution. Whatever you do, don't make the mistake of being too cautious. Don't assume that by staying put, the ground won't move beneath your feet. The status quo simply won't last. So get to work on building something better.
有句谚语说，如果你做你喜欢做的事，你的人生中将永远不会有一天是在工作。在苹果公司，我知道了这是一个彻头彻尾的谎言。你会比你想象的更努力工作，但你却一点也不觉得费劲。当你走进这个世界的时候，不要把时间浪费在已经解决的问题上。不要为别人所说的是实际的情况而心烦意乱。相反，引导你的船进入波涛汹涌的大海。寻找那些蛮荒之地，那些看起来还很难解决的问题，那些其他人乐于解决的复杂问题。在那些地方，你会找到你的目标。在那里你可以做出你的贡献。无论你做什么，都不要犯太谨慎的错误。不要以为原地不动，地面就不会在你脚下移动。现状根本不会持久。所以开始做些更好的事吧。
In some important ways, my generation has failed you in this regard. We spent too much time debating. We've been too focused on the fight and not focused enough on progress. And you don't need to look far to find an example of that failure. Here today, in this very place, in an arena where thousands once found desperate shelter from a 100-year disaster, the kind that seem to be happening more and more frequently, I don't think we can talk about who we are as people and what we owe to one another without talking about climate change.
在某些重要的方面，我们这代人辜负了你们。我们花了太多时间辩论。我们一直太专注于斗争，而没有把足够的注意力放在进步上。你不需要看太远就能找到失败的例子。今天，就在这个地方，在这个成千上万人曾经绝望地躲避百年灾难的地方，这种灾难似乎变得越来越频繁。我认为，如果我们不谈论气候变化，我们就无法谈论我们是谁，以及我们彼此亏欠了什么。
(applause) Thank you. Thank you.
谢谢！谢谢！
This problem doesn't get any easier based on whose side wins or loses an election. It's about who has won life's lottery and has the luxury of ignoring this issue and who stands to lose everything. The coastal communities, including some right here in Louisiana, that are already making plans to leave behind the places they've called home for generations and head for higher ground. The fishermen whose nets come up empty. The wildlife preserves with less wildlife to preserve. The marginalized, for whom a natural disaster can mean enduring poverty.
这个问题不会因为谁胜谁负而变得简单，这是一个关乎谁赢了人生彩票、谁有忽视这个问题的能力、谁会失去一切的问题。沿海社区，包括路易斯安那州的一些社区，已经在计划离开世代以来被称为“家园”的地方，前往更海拔更高地方。如今渔民的渔网空空如也、野生动物生计萧条。对于生存在边缘地区的人来说，自然灾害往往就意味着持久的贫困。
Just ask Tulane's own Molly Keogh, who's getting her Ph.D. this weekend. Her important new research shows that rising sea levels are devastating areas of Southern Louisiana more dramatically than anyone expected. Tulane graduates, these are people's homes. Their livelihoods. The land where their grandparents were born, lived, and died.
问问杜兰大学的莫莉·基奥（Molly Keogh）就知道了，她这个周末就要拿到博士学位了。她的一项重要新研究表明，海平面上升对路易斯安那州南部地区造成的破坏比任何人预想的都要严重。杜兰大学的毕业生们，这些地方都是人们的家园、他们的生计、他们祖父母出生、生活和去世的地方。
When we talk about climate change or any issue with human costs, and there are many, I challenge you to look for those who have the most to lose and find the real, true empathy that comes from something shared. That is really what we owe one another. When you do that, the political noise dies down, and you can feel your feet firmly planted on solid ground. After all, we don't build monuments to trolls, and we're not going to start now.
当我们谈论气候变化或任何与人类成本有关的问题时，我有很多问题希望你们能够着手去做：去寻找那些因此损失的人，并从一些共同的东西中找到真正的、真正的同理心，这才是我们真正亏欠彼此的东西。当你这样做的时候，政治上的喧嚣就会平息下来，你会感到自己的脚牢牢地踩在了坚实的土地上。毕竟，我们从来不为巨魔建造纪念碑，也不会现在开创这个先例。
If you find yourself spending more time fighting than getting to work, stop and ask yourself who benefits from all the chaos. There are some who would like you to believe that the only way that you can be strong is by bulldozing those who disagree or never giving them a chance to say their peace in the first place. That the only way you can build your own accomplishments is by tearing down the other side.
如果你发现自己花在斗争上的时间比上班的时间还多。那么停下来，问问自己谁能从所有这些混乱中受益。有些人想让你相信，你能变得强大的方法，就是制服那些不同意你观点的人，或者从一开始就不给他们机会表达自己的机会。他们想让你相信，你能成就自己的方法就是摧毁对方。
We forget sometimes that our preexisting beliefs have their own force of gravity. Today, certain algorithms pull toward you the things you already know, believe, or like, and they push away everything else. Push back. It shouldn't be this way. But in 20xx, opening your eyes and seeing things in a new way can be a revolutionary act. Summon the courage not just to hear but to listen. Not just to act, but to act together.
我们有时会忘记，我们先前存在的信念有其自身的引力。今天，某些算法会把你已经知道、相信或喜欢的东西主动拉向你，而把其他的东西推开，但事情本不应该如此。然而在20xx年，睁开眼睛、以一种全新方式看待事物可能是一种革命性的行为。你不仅要鼓起勇气去听，还要有勇气去听。不仅仅是行动，而是要一起行动。
It can sometimes feel like the odds are stacked against you, that it isn't worth it, that the critics are too persistent and the problems are too great. But the solutions to our problems begin on a human scale with building a shared understanding of the work ahead and with undertaking it together. At the very least, we owe it to each other to try.
有时候你会觉得机会对你不利、觉得这么做不值得、觉得批评之声太过顽固，亦或觉得问题太大（超出了自己的处理能力）。但是，解决我们当下问题的办法首先就是在人类范畴内建立对今后工作的共同理解，并着手共同解决这一问题。至少，我们也应该放手一搏。
It's worked before. In 1932, the American economy was in a free-fall. Twelve million people were unemployed, and conventional wisdom said the only thing to do was to ride it out, wait, and hope that things would turn around. But the governor of New York, a rising star named Franklin Roosevelt, refused to wait. He challenged the status quo and called for action. He needed people to stop their rosy thinking, face the facts, pull together, and help themselves out of a jam.
这样的方式在之前曾成功过。1932年，当时的美国经济一落千丈，有1200万人失业。传统观点认为，我们能做的就是撑过这段时间、等待，并希望情况会有所好转。但当时政途冉冉升起的纽约州州长富兰克林o罗斯福（Franklin Roosevelt，后就任美国第32任总统，美国历连任超过两届的总统）拒绝等待。他敢于挑战现状，呼吁采取行动。他呼吁人们停止继续抱有乐观的想法，面对现实、齐心协力，帮助自己摆脱困境。
He said: "The country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it and try another. But above all, try something."
他说：“这个国家需要一些大胆、持续的尝试。采取一种方法并加以尝试是再正常不过的事情。如果失败了，我们就承认失败，然后再试一次。但最重要的是，我们需要尝试一些东西。”
This was a speech to college students fearful about their future in an uncertain world. He said: "Yours is not the task of making your way in the world, but the task of remaking the world."
这是一场对大学生的演讲，他们担心自己在一个不确定世界里的未来。他（罗斯福）说：“你们的任务不是在世界上开辟自己的道路，而是改造世界。”
The audacious empathy of young people, the spirit that says we should live not just for ourselves, but for our own. That's the way forward. From climate change to immigration, from criminal justice reform to economic opportunity, be motivated by your duty to build a better world. Young people have changed the course of history time and time again. And now it's time to change it once more.
年轻人无畏的同情心告诉我们，我们不仅要为努力生活，而且要为自己而活。这是一条前进的道路，从气候变化到移民、从刑事司法改革到经济机遇，我们都要以建设一个更美好世界的责任为动力。此前的年轻人一次又一次地改变了历史的进程，现在是时候再次改变了。
I know, I know the urgency of that truth is with you today. Feel big because no one can make you feel small. Feel brave because the challenges we face are great but you are greater. And feel grateful because someone sacrificed to make this moment possible for you. You have clear eyes and a long life to use them. And here in this stadium, I can feel your courage.
我知道，今天你们所接触到真相带来的紧迫性。大胆一些，因为没有人能让你感到弱小。勇敢一些，因为我们面临的挑战是巨大的，但你们将更加伟大。懂得感恩，因为已经有人为你们生活在的当下做出了牺牲，让这一刻成为可能。你们拥有一对清澈的眼睛，人生的道路也还很长。在这个体育场，我能感受到你们的勇气。
Call upon your grit. Try something. You may succeed. You may fail. But make it your life's work to remake the world because there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than working to leave something better for humanity.
呼唤你的勇气。尝试，你可能会成功，也可能会失败。但是，请让改造世界成为你自己的人生工作，因为没有什么比为人类留下更好的东西更具价值。
Thank you very much, and congratulations class of 20xx!
非常感谢，祝贺20xx届的毕业生们！
good afternoon!
recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. the college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. but will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? will we be able to better the lives of others? will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?
the cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. but the cynics are wrong. the college students i see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. we help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
the cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. but again, the cynics are wrong. we care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
as college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. we all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. i believe in all my fellow classmates. though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. i believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. we are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. i believe in our future.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Today I would like to talk about current environment situations which youcan see all over the world. While we are pursuing better ways of lives, moreproblems we are also making. Sometimes we only notice a unilateral aspect of thematter while ignoring its various functions. This kind of negligence, however,may cause serious problems that could be devastating.
It is said that one false move may lose the game. This is proved in ourdaily life obviously. As the economy is growing rapidly day after day,manufacturers are looking for more opportunities to gain numerous profit. Toearn more money, one way is to decrease the cost of the products. They movetheir factories to developing countries which can not only benefit them muchmore profit than before, but also those countries welcome them since they canhelp increase the countries’ GDP.
While it seems we can gain a lot from building factories to produceproducts, the shortcomings of these buildings are becoming obvious. Though atthe beginning, those developing countries did gain a lot of profit. As timepasses, people living surround the factories deposit industrial waste into theriver which directly leads to the influence of human’s lives. Fish died, birdsdisappeared, people moved, and we couldn’t imagine what would come next. Theseindustries also use lots of resources to carry on their production. Largeamounts of carbon dioxide are discharged, we all know the consequence of that,global warming—as one of the most essential environmental problems in the world,is becoming more and more serious currently. That the local government ignoredwas that these factories damaged their environment without any punishment butreception! They didn’t notice the negative aspect on this investment. What apity!
In summary, nowadays, businessmen are destroying our motherland—earth forthemselves. What should we do in this situation? Ignore them or try to take someactions on it? I believe all of us will choose the latter, right? So just do it,nothing is impossible.
That’s all. Thank you.
Thank mother for her love
Mom , I wish to tell you that .Mom, here I would like to say thank you to you! Thank you for the upbringing of TU, I would also like to say Road, you have worked hard for that I thank you for running hard.
Parents, as I have for you Pearl, I want to put in the hands of, dare not be too hard to grasp, for fear of crumb; also too afraid to shake loose, afraid of falling on the ground. In this way, I am your health care under the joy of growth. Mom, I want to tell you thank you!Because every time you by my frustration, told me that encouraged me, "Failure is the mother of success", not discouraged, to continue their efforts will succeed one day.Words to encourage me, this went to the courage of my body.However, if the parents did not love you, my life would be a lonely.If I do not have the same sense of joy, everything will be in vain. You busy, and sometimes overlooked in our care.
Mom , you always had time for education, wealth is not the most important, and sometimes knowledge is not the most important and sometimes can not be the most important thing, if I do not have ideals, my life would be darkness.Mom , you do not own success when you visit his line, failed when not to be discouraged, everyone is unique, has been buried in my heart, your love will always be with me.
Good afternoon, dear teachers and friends!
I' m happy to make a speech here. Thank you for your coming. Now, the topic for my speech today is “Western Festivals.” I would like to talk about Christmas.
Christmas is originally a Christian festival, as you can see from the formation of this word, “Christ-mas.” The first part of the word refers to Jesus Christ, and the second part “mas” comes from the word “mass,” referring to a main religious ceremony in some Christian churches. At first, it was celebrated for the birth of Jesus Christ. Nowadays, although some churches still observe this festival for its religious reason, for most people, including Chinese people, Christmas has already become a day of secular celebrations, when people exchange greetings and gifts. However, it is still a biggest festival in the West. It is as important to the Westerners as the Spring Festival is to the Chinese people.
Christmas day is on the 25th of December, and Christmas Eve is of course the evening of the previous day, the 24th December.
Christmas holiday usually lasts for two weeks, during which most schools have a Christmas break. Many families put the Christmas tree in their house, and hang many decorations on the tree. Under the tree, they usually place many Christmas presents. Giving out presents and receiving presents are what kids like best about this festival.
On Christmas Eve, kids would put stockings at the end of their bed, wishing the Santa Claus would come and give them presents.
As to the tradition of giving and receiving presents in Christmas, I think it has something to do with the nativity story. In the nativity story, on the birthday of baby Jesus, there was a bright star shining in the East. There were three kings in the East who saw the star, and they followed the star all the way to Bethlehem where the star stopped. They came to a manger where baby Jesus was lying. They worshiped the little baby and gave him presents. I think this is a beautiful story. It shows a spirit of sharing and love.
I like Christmas for the presents kids will receive and for its lovely story.
Thank you very much!
Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it .
I want to be a teacher when I listen to my teacher carefully. I think I can be a teacher when I grow up. I can help many students learn things well. I can play with my students, too. So we are good friends. I want to be a doctor when I see many doctors save their patients. To be a doctor is really great. I think I can be a doctor when I grow up. Then I can help many people out of danger. I will be the happiest girl in the world. I want to be a reporter when I watch TV every evening. We can get lots of important information from them. They make the world smaller and also make us happy. I would like to be a reporter when I grow up. And I can learn a lot about China and the other countries around the world. I can meet many superstars as well. I have lots of dreams. I think my dreams can come true one day, because there’s an old saying “where there is a will, there is a way.”
Efforts toward the success of the process, at first glance, like a black tunnel, sight of the head, such as Middle School graduating class of students, there are endless day of work, on the go, feel not enough sleep, many people every day, "the first cantilever cone piercing, to burn the midnight oil", a day in the "two line" between the hard work … … every day life is like a copier in print, everything is repeated.
Do not forget, the sun is new!
New, is a beautiful state of mind!
The new sun, Is this not a hope?
Every day see it, is like night and see the light of the black population, is it not a happiness?
Yes, the weight of our heavy burden almost collapsed, too high expectations, we are firmly nailed to the ground, but perhaps the greatest burden is also a symbol of life enriched.
Nietzsche said that people do not suffer the power of pessimism, so we do not have to smile toward victory, but the face of temporary difficulties, we have to smile, but also to heart smile.
Indulge in the journey to success is to be truly "buried" go on, these days need to break the house in, calm down, only to maintain "calm the mind like water" state, to put the final sprint.
We like that in the car, the destination, beautiful scenery along the way, it is tempting, but you better not to involve them too much energy, and make the eyes has been moving in the direction of the end, if the tolerance is not temporary living jumped out to enjoy the beauty, the car drove off, maybe you will see another vehicle, you might end up the same destination, but life is not your standard point moment.
In a particular stage of life has a special mission.
Study stage, is to achieve goals in life, when an important step, if miss this opportunity, you will be repentant, so severely heart, leaving the pretty girls for the time being a waste of time, the clothes and dress up, boys put aside their attractive comic books and computer games, put off that a distant "green apple" Love it!
Summer, fall, fruit is not Abstract.
Picked and eaten, not sweet gesture, or until the harvesting season, so go enjoy the harvest of joy in it!
Set aside what irrelevant thoughts and move forward, looked up days, with the heart to see the world, because the sun always new.
Softly said to himself: "If not me, the world will be less of a person appreciate the beautiful sun." Is such a state of mind, so you always wonderful for yourself!
Spring, flowers, wind throw area; summer, flowers open, butterfly fluttering; autumn sky was clear and leaves as fire; winter, bleak, snowy, whether Hanlaishuwang, spring, summer autumn and winter, the sun rose as usual from … …
No Better, I do not know who carried out normally enough, few people need to know how much effort to achieve the dream, we can only continue to move forward, forward, then forward, "We are seizing the day is long!"
Seize the day, when you blankly; seize the day, when you depressed; seize the day, when you lazy, seize the day, at a time when you have a dream; the sun every day is new, Life is always full of hope, start now, take every moment, do not hesitate!
So, thirty-one years ago today, I drove from Madison, Wisconsin, to Los Angeles, California. On the way, I passed Camp Randall, where my college graduation ceremony was in progress. I thought about going to the ceremony, but it meant I would've arrived in Hollywood one day later, and at the time I just didn't see the point. I wanted to get there.
Gertrude Stein once said about Hollywood, "When you get there, there is no 'there' there." That's true. However, there will be a swimming pool and tennis court. In the end, though, it's probably not enough to justify a life's journey. Getting there, particularly in show business, is tough enough. You need a combination of talent, ambition, luck and a willingness to tell actors how beautiful they look today.
In retrospect, getting there was the easy part. Finding a "there" there is much harder. So today, before you get into your cars and race off to the rest of your lives, I want to give you some advice on how to get there. And I want to help make sure that when you get there, you find a "there" there.
To that end, I will give you my five rules to think about, quickly forget, but years from now kick yourself for not having listened to.
英语励志演讲稿篇1中文翻译：
向着成功努力的过程，乍一看，就像一条黑漆的隧道，望不到头，比如高三毕业班的学生，每天有做不完的作业，忙不完的事，睡不够的觉，许多人每天都要"头悬梁锥刺骨，地挑灯夜战",每天在"两点一线"之间劳碌……一天天的生活就像复印机里印出来的，一切都在重复。
别忘了，太阳是新的!
全新的，是一种最美的心境!
新的太阳，难道这不是一种希望吗?
每天都看见希望，就像是在黑口的夜里看见曙光，难道这不是一种幸福吗?
是的，沉重的负担压得我们几乎崩溃了，太高的期望将我们紧紧地钉在地上，但也许最沉重的负担同时也是一种生活充实的象征。
尼采说，受苦的人没有悲观的权力，所以我们不一定要向着胜利微笑，但面对暂时的困难，我们必须微笑，而且是会心动微笑。
埋首于通向成功征途，是必须真真正正"埋"下去的，这段日子需要休沉下来，静下心来，只有保持"心静如水"的状态，才能投入最后的冲刺。
我们好比是在乘一辆车前往目的地，沿途的风光很美，很诱人，但是你最好不要为了他们牵扯太多的精力， 而要使目光一直朝着终点的方向看，如果忍不住跳下车去欣赏暂时的美景，这辆车就开走了，也许你会看到另一辆车，也许最后你同样到达目的地，但那也不是你人生准点的时刻了。
人生在特定的阶段有着特殊的使命。
求学的阶段，就是为实现人生目标迈出重要一步的时候，如果错过这个机会，你将追悔莫及，所以狠狠心，女孩子们暂且丢下那些漂亮的衣服和浪费时间的打扮，男孩子们抛开那诱人的漫画书和电脑游戏，放一放那一段遥不可及的"青苹果"之恋吧!
夏天不摘秋天的果。
摘下来，食之不甜，弃之可惜，所以还是等到收获的季节里再去品尝丰收的喜悦吧!
搁置一下与前进无关的心事，抬头望天，用心灵看世界，因为太阳常新。
轻轻对自己说："如果没有我，世界将少一个人欣赏这美丽的太阳。"就是这样一种心境，让你始终把精彩留给自己!
春天，鸟语花香，微风抛面;夏天，百花开放，蝴蝶飞舞;秋天，天高云淡，红叶似火;冬天，寒风刺骨，白雪皑皑，无论寒来暑往，春夏秋冬，太阳照常升起……
知足者常乐，不知足者常进，很少有人能知道需付出多少努力才能实现心中的梦想，我们只能不断前进、前进，再前进，"一万年太久我们只争朝夕"!
只争朝夕，在你茫然的时候;只争朝夕，在你沮丧的时候;只争朝夕，在你懒散的时候，只争朝夕，在你还拥有梦想的时候;太阳每天都是新的，生活永远充满希望，现在就开始吧，把握每个瞬间，不要再犹豫!
31年前的今天，我驾车从威斯康辛大学麦迪逊分校驶往加利福利亚州的洛杉矶。途径兰德尔体育场，当时我们学院的毕业典礼正在那儿举行。我曾想过去参加毕业典礼，但那就意为着我会迟到一天到好莱坞。当时，我不知道什么是重点，我只是想到好莱坞去。
格特***·斯坦因曾经这样形容好莱坞，“当你到了那儿的时候，在那里没有‘那里’。”她形容非常确切。但是，那里将会有游泳池和网球场。尽管这最后或许不足以证明生命的旅程是否正当。在那里，特别是在娱乐行业闯荡是非常艰难的。你要有才华、野心以及运气，并且还要能心甘情愿地告诉演员们他们今天看上去是多么美丽。
回想过去，到达那里相对比较简单，而在这里寻找立足之地就比较困难了。因此，今天在你们坐在车里准备驶往未来时，我想给你们提几点建议，告诉你们如何实现自己的梦想。我想确保你们到达那里的时候，可以找到自己的目标，实现自己的梦想。
为此，我想告诉你们我的5条规则，供你们思考，以便能尽快实现梦想。数年之后，你们懊悔没有认真听我讲，那就只能怪你们自己了。
Dear Judges and Friends,
The topic for my speech today is “Festival.” I would like to talk about my favorite festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In China we have several important festivals, such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival, the Dragon-boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Among them, I like Mid-Autumn festival best, especially because I live in Xiamen.
In Xiamen, when we celebrate the Mid-Autumn festival, we do not only follow the common practices such as having a big dinner party with our family, eating mooncakes, and appreciating the full moon at night, we also have one unique custom which is only practiced in Xiamen, that is “Bo Bing”.
“Bo Bing” is a very interesting game that almost all Xiamen people play during this festival. Usually family members or close friends get together around a table with a big round bowl in the middle and six dices in the bowl. We take turns to throw the dices into the bowl. We will get different prizes accroding to the different ways the dices show their upper sides. Everyone is likely to become the champion or “Zhuangyuan” for the year. There is an element of luck and equal opportunity in this game. So people usually get excited while playing. Also, the game gives very pleasant sounds. The tinkling made by the dices falling into the bowl is pleasant, people’s laughing, cheering and applauding for the big prizes they’ve won is pleasant. All this adds greatly to the joyful atmosphere of this festival. As a kid, of course I also like the material prizes I get from the game, such as a candy or a cake.
In this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, my family invited our foreign friends to come to our home to celebrate the Festival together. They have two children who are younger than me. While our parents were making Jiaozi together, we kids played “Bo Bing”. We bought quite some gifts to share with our guests as their prizes.They enjoyed the game and our get-together very much.
The literal translation of “Bo Bing” is “mooncake gambling.” But actually it is not gambling, at least our family never plays it that way. For us, it is more an occasion of happy sharing and getting-together. This is why Xiamen’s Mid-Autumn Festival has become my favorite festival in the year.
Thank you very much!
nowadays more and more young people prefer to follow the fashion. the word 'fashion' is generally used to mean style in clothing. they make people handsome and cool. also, fashion can be something strange. from that we can be different from others. but all of these can change from time to time. and valuable personal qualities and characters never change. so i think they are the true fashions.
helpful and warm-hearted is a kind of fashion because not everyone can be like that. if you are not willing to help others, it is difficult for you to get along well with others. if you can always have a lot of friends, you are fashionable.
love is always important in the world. many people around the world need care and love. if you can show you love to the people in need, you are fashionable.
to protect the environment is fashion. if you don't use the plastic bags and do something to protect our earth, you are fashionable.
so let's form good personal qualities. let's follow the fashion.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West.
Waking up on New Year, everybody dresses up. First they extend greetings to their parents. Then each child will get money as a New Year gift, wrapped up in red paper. People in northern China will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think "jiaozi" in sound means "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new".
That Chinese people pay more attention to be polite,while it is different from other countries .And chinese culture is brilliant and they know how to use a brush to write
Now dragon is the symbol of the whole Chinese people.
Dragon is a animal worshipped by the Chinese people from the time immemorial. But what is it? No one knows.
Some people think that the Yanzi crocodile is the archetype of the dragon. However, most people hold that dragon is a combination of many animals. And the abilities of those animals have been collected to it. Wang Chong, once pointed that the horn of dragon liked deer's one, the head liked camel's one, the eyes liked rabbit's one, the neck liked snake's one, the talon liked eagle's one, the palm liked tiger's one and the ear liked cattle's one.
ulie was saying her bedtime prayers. "please god," she said, "make naples the capital of italy. make naples the capital of italy."
her mother interrupted and said. "julie, why do you want god to make naples the capital of italy?"
and julie replied, "because that's what i put in my geography exam!"
朱莉叶在做睡前祷告。“上帝，求求你，”她说，“让那不勒斯成为意大利的首都吧。”
妈妈打断她的话说：“朱莉叶，为什么求上帝让那不勒斯成为意大利的首都呢?”
朱莉叶回答道：“因为我在地理考卷上是这样写的。”
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.
学习如何说不
我们都被教导说，我们应该要帮助别人。这是应该做的事，而且这样做会使我们受人欢迎。它甚至会为我们赢得一些回报。但是，我们必须要实际一点。我们不能答应每一个要求。如果我们这么做，我们就一定会失败或发疯。有时候我们确实没有时间去帮忙。既然如此，我们就必须知道如何有礼貌地说不。
当我们需要说不的时候，有个办法我们可以试试。首先，我们应该要说实话。假如我们真的办不到某件事，我们就应该说不。第二，我们应该记得要客气地拒绝对方的要求。我们必须清楚地表达，但态度也必须真诚并且表示同情。一个真正的朋友会谅解的。最后，我们不必为了说不而觉得有罪恶感。有时候拒绝别人才是我们应该做的事。它可以替我们自己和别人，都省下许多麻烦。总而言之，我们无法一直取悦每个人。拒绝请求是人生的一部分。

元旦是世界上许多人在这一年中的重要日子之一。大多数人在旅馆里过新年。1月1日被认为是新年。大多数公司、商店、学校和政府办公室都关门了。人们从十二月下旬开始庆祝新年。首先，人们花几天时间彻底打扫房子。一些家庭于是在十一月发行了一幅新画作，将于一月寄出。新年饭也从十二月底开始准备。在新年期间，人们通常不在家做饭和放松。除夕之夜，在家里或旅馆里与家人或朋友吃一顿袋饭是很常见的事，听到钟声告诉我们即将到来的新年。元旦那天，人们互相打招呼。有些人穿上新大衣，参观寺庙，为新的一年的幸福和健康祈祷。孩子们忙于从父母和亲戚那里得到礼物。

Hello everyone! My name is Wei Xiuying. I’m a student from Zhen’an Middle School. I’m from Class 3 Grade 8. I’m shy but there is always a smile on my face. At school, I have some good habits. For example, I read books every day, I often play sports. My favorite sport is ping-pong. Because I really like Ding Ning. She can play it very well. I often play it with my classmates at school in the afternoon. It is interesting.
Our school is very nice. First, there is a beautiful garden in our school. It has a lot of flowers and trees. The flowers are colorful and smell good. The trees are green and you can have a rest under the tree. Second, there is a big playground in our school too. We can play basketball, play badminton, run and so on. It is healthy for our mind and body to play sports. Third, there is also a dining hall in our school. We can have meals there and the food tastes delicious. The teachers are very friendly to us. They usually help with our study. Although they sometimes are strict, they just want us to get good grades. I love my classmates too. Because they can make me laugh and I can learn a lot from them. They often bring out the best in me.
In a word, I love my school!
Thank you for your listening.
没有想象力就没有创造力
NO IMAGINATION, NO CREATIVITY
Dear teachers and students：
Good morning / afternoon / evening! My name is Liu zi yuan. The title of my speech is the relationship between creativity and imagination.
尊敬的老师、同学们大家早上/下午/晚上好!我叫刘子源。我演讲的题目是创造力和想象力之间的关系。
There is no creativity without imagination. With the development of the society, creativity becomes more and more important. People could not satisfy with ordinary life. So we need creativity to meet their requirements. We can see significance of the creativity from an example. The smart phone—iphone spread all over the world. That was the creativity of The Apple Inc. It is obvious that it will produce a bigger profit than common manufacturing. But, hao can we acquire creativity?
没有想象力就没有创造力。随着社会的发展，创造力变得越来越重要。人们已经不能满足于日常生活。所以我们需要不断的创新来满足他们的需求。通过一个例子我们可以知道创造力的意义。苹果智能手机的使用遍及全世界。这就是苹果公司的创新。很显然，这项创新产生了巨大的利润比起普通的制造业。但是我们怎样才能获得创造力?
I think the creativity roots in imagination. Albert Einstein said that imagination is important than knowledge. Because we should creative a thing that is never appeared, we need to image. Use all the things and information around us to think and then go to achieve it. Without the imagination of the Wright brothers , human could not complete the flying dreams. Without the imagination of the Alexander Graham Bell, we could not hear the voice from a distance. If the creativity can make the human progress, imagination will be the road to success. Where the imagination come from? Knowledge ? Experience ? practice? I consider that all of them are indispensable. It is often said that knowledge is power. So we should empower ourselves with knowledge. After that we need to obtain experience form. practice. These are the basis, and we must strengthen them to extend our imagination.
我认为创造力扎根于想象力。爱因斯坦曾经说过，想象力远远比知识更重要。因为我们要创造一个事物，以前从没有出现过的，因此我们需要想象。利用我们周围所有的事物以及信息去想象，然后去完成它。 没有莱特兄弟的想象力，人类就不能实现飞天的梦想;没有贝尔的想象力，我们就不能听到来自远方的声音。如果说创造力可以使人进步，那么想象力就是通向成功的道路。想象力来自哪里?知识?经验?还是实践?我觉得所有这些都是必不可少的。俗语有云：知识就是力量。所以我们首先应该用知识武装自己，然后我们需要从实践中获得经验。这些都是基础，我们必须用它们来扩展我们的思维。
As contemporary college students, we must shoulder the responsibility of the future of our motherland. What we need is not only the knowledge of the past, but also is the innovation of a new field. Our thought can not be bound by the old things. We should understand that an excellent nation is always full of creativity. So we must promote our imagination. There is no creativity without imagination. That’s all, thank you!
作为一个当代的大学生，我们需要肩负起祖国的未来。我不仅需要旧的知识，而且更要创新新的知识领域。我们的思想不能被旧知识所束缚。我们应该知道，一个优秀的民族永远是一个具有创新性的民族，所以我们必须提升我们的想象力。因为没有想象力就没有创造力。 演讲完毕，谢谢大家!
Money is very important for us but is not the most important things in ourlife.Many things are more important than money ,such as friendship ,love ,andfamily ,and so on .We can use money to buy many things but for people's hearts.Apeople only care the money ,which is very sorrowful.Gradually,he will lose manythings that is more important than money.And last,he will become lonely.
Sometimes money can let many people gather and make friends with you.However,you have to know they may be not your true friends and they just wantyou money.A true friend never care whether his friend is poor or rich.A firendin need is a friend indeed.Having some sincere friends is the truehappiness.
Anyway,money can solve lots of problems but it can't bring you happinessbecause it can't buy a true heart.Please remember that some things in the worldis invaluable.So don't live only for money.
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, it is victory. Victory at all costs—victory in spite of all terrors—victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival. Let that be realized, no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that British Empire has stood for , no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall more forward toward his goal. I take up my task in buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.”
我能奉献的唯有热血、辛劳、泪水和汗水。我们所面临的将是一场极为残酷的考验，我们面临的将是旷日持久的斗争和苦难。你若问我们的目标是什么?我可以用一个词来概括，那就是胜利。不惜一切代价去夺取胜利，不畏惧一切恐怖去夺取胜利，不论前路再长再苦也要多去胜利，因为没有胜利纠无法生存!我们必须意识到，没有胜利就没有大英帝国，没有胜利就没有大英帝国所象征的一切，没有胜利就没有多少世纪以来强烈的要求和冲动：人类应当向自己的目标迈进。此刻，我的精神振奋，满怀信心地承当起自己的人物。我确信，只要我们大家联合，我们的事业就不会挫败。此时此刻千钧一发之际，我觉得我有权要求各方面的支持。我要呼吁：“来吧，让我们群策努力，并肩迈进!”
Good afternoon, dear teachers and friends!

However, it is still a biggest festival in the West. It is as important to the Westerners as the Spring Festival is to the Chinese people.
Christmas day is on the 25th of December, and Christmas Eve is of course the evening of the previous day, the 24th December.
Christmas holiday usually lasts for two weeks, during which most schools have a Christmas break. Many families put the Christmas tree in their house, and hang many decorations on the tree. Under the tree, they usually place many Christmas presents. Giving out presents and receiving presents are what kids like best about this festival.
On Christmas Eve, kids would put stockings at the end of their bed, wishing the Santa Claus would come and give them presents.
As to the tradition of giving and receiving presents in Christmas, I think it has something to do with the nativity story. In the nativity story, on the birthday of baby Jesus, there was a bright star shining in the East. There were three kings in the East who saw the star, and they followed the star all the way to Bethlehem where the star stopped. They came to a manger where baby Jesus was lying. They worshiped the little baby and gave him presents. I think this is a beautiful story. It shows a spirit of sharing and love.
I like Christmas for the presents kids will receive and for its lovely story.
Thank you very much!
