Newspapers in recent days, has been published reports of haze weather, there is a marked in today"s newspaper "recently air quality will not significantly improve" headline. Air quality is really bad, said on the radio in the school has the heavy pollution, demands that we don"t do sports on the playground, in the dirty air movement, feeling himself a vacuum cleaner.
These days the weather is getting warm, but that the fog still lingering. From the Windows overlooking the distant place, or a piece of confusion, near the corner of the sky seems to have some better, show a little bit of blue, but still with grey. Grandma and I go out for a walk, when people feel like quilt in a huge glass, breathing is very difficult and gas absorption into his mouth and a disgusting smell of powder.
The fog and haze, why? We do wrong? Is this the sky for our punishment?
Dear teachers and students
hello everyone!
I'm . It's a great honor to stand here and express my personal opinions. The topic of my speech today is "learning methods should be suitable for yourself".
After reading the book "learn to learn and learn to be a man", I learned a lot of learning methods and understood the importance of learning methods through the small stories inside. But with good learning methods, everyone can say a few, and normal people can do it. Why is the achievement gap still so large? I don't want to repeat the truth. I just want to say what I think.
What I feel most is that the learning method should be suitable for myself. I am not a hard-working person, but I have always maintained good grades, thanks to the fact that I have found a suitable learning method. When I was just promoted to junior high school, my parents and teachers taught me that junior high school is not much more than primary school. I have to work harder. I began to devote a lot of time to study, spend a lot of time preparing and reviewing, and do my homework seriously. But I don't know why, I feel very hard. I tried to increase the time and effort, but it was even more difficult. I calmed down and carefully analyzed my situation. I found that it was due to improper methods that I had difficulty in learning. I have been blindly following the so-called "good method", ignoring my actual situation. My advantage is strong acceptance, good memory and fast learning. I spend a lot of time and energy preparing and reviewing those familiar knowledge, and I'm tired of dealing with the homework that doesn't make any sense to me. It's strange that I don't work hard. I immediately adjusted the focus of study, put improving classroom efficiency first, and achieved twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, there are wins and losses, and there are high and low. What we can do is to persevere and go all out. Don't just focus on the results and have a clear conscience.
Finally, I wish teachers good health and students learning progress.
My speech is over!
Thank you!
the life of people and countless setbacks are inevitable. nietzsche said,we have no right to be pessimistic. frustration can be relaxed, without setbacksto enlarge. some small things make you very pessimistic. so life isn't occupiedby pain?
in the face of setbacks, anita mui chose to continue struggle, while lesliecheung chose suicide. encountered setbacks, the choice of summing up experience,continue to forge ahead? or indulge in frustration and pain, inextricably boggeddown in? many history and experience tell us: frustration is inevitable, youmust learn lessons, correct shortcomings, make up for deficiencies, and enhanceself-confidence, you can succeed. on the contrary, it will fall forever. youmust calm down and face the frustrations of life with an ordinary and optimisticheart.

there is such a person, his family was very wealthy, his father is alatifundistas. but when he was 7 years old, my motherland changes. the wholefamily fled to miami. in order to survive in a foreign country, he worked withhis father when he was 15 years old. his life was bitter, but he always listenedto his father's instruction: whatever he wanted, he should be strong and good.he worked as a waiter, salesman and the driver of the car did. because he wasdiligent, studious and unpaid, the boss introduced him to a better company. fromthen on, he eventually became the united states department of commerce bepromoted step by step, minister, he is carlos gutierrez.

Atoms for Peace Members of the General Assembly: auto will remain steadfast in its support of this body.This we shall do in the conviction that you will provide a great share of the wisdom, of the courage, and the faith which can bring to this world lasting peace for all nations, and happiness and well-being for all men.VerdanaI therefore decided that this occasion warranted my saying to you some of the things that have been on the minds and hearts of my legislative and executive associates, and on mine, for a great many months -- thoughts I had originally planned to say primarily to the American people.Nevertheless, I assure you that in our deliberations on that lovely island we sought to invoke those same great concepts of universal peace and human dignity which are so cleanly etched in your Charter.Neither would it be a measure of this great opportunity merely to recite, however hopefully, pious platitudes.
Ninety three percent of the worlds water is salt water and cannot be drunk. Fresh water only accounts for seven percent, while drinking water only accounts for eight percent. Five billion people in the world depend on drinking only 0.8% of the fresh water. Look, how valuable the water is!
How do we get the tap water we use every day? Dont think running water is all right. It was the worker uncle of the waterworks who introduced the river water or groundwater into the factory, put the water in the sedimentation tank, added the medicine for disinfection and sterilization, and removed the harmful and impurities. In this way, many pipes were buried underground. These pipes are connected one by one. They are the result of the hard work of many workers in Waterworks day and night. When we turn on the tap, we should think of how many workers uncles hard work are contained in the water!
Students, we are the little masters of the country. We should form a good idea and good habit of saving water from childhood. No matter in or out of school, we should pay attention to water conservation to avoid waste of water resources, do not let the tap drip, try to make rational and recycling use of water resources. We should be a good child who saves water with practical actions.
love English
When I was seven, I started learning English. I played games and sang English songs with other children. Sometimes, I watched English cartoons. It's funny. Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington, because my cousin is over there. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge University, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. Also I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, and the gardens in Suzhou. I will teaching people of the world about the beautiful language of our country.
I like the English language. To learn English is wonderful. I once wanted to be an English teacher . I also like Chinese literature. When I was really young, I was able to remember lots of poems. I also wanted to be a teacher of Chinese. Now I think that both of my dreams can come true: I will be able to use English to teach foreign friends Chinese and share Chinese culture with them. So that more and more people will be able to get to know the 5000 years' history culture, and the prosperity of our great China.
My future is not a dream. I am confident that it will come true
我爱英语
当我七岁的时候，我开始学习英语。我与其他儿童一起打游戏和唱英语歌曲，。有时候，我会观看英语卡通片。它很有趣。接着我发现语言的美丽，开始了我在英语世界里丰富多彩的的梦。
我希望总有一天我能够在世界各地旅游。我要到美国华盛顿访问，因为我的表哥是在那里。当然，我要到伦敦，因为英国是英语语言的`发源地。如果我能在剑桥大学骑上我的自行车，我会很高兴的。
我希望我能够与世界上每一个人说流利的英语。同时，我对他们来介绍一下中国，如长城和苏州园林。我会教世界人民了解我们国家美丽的语言。
我喜欢英语。学英语实在是太好了。曾经我想成为一名英语教师。我也喜欢中国文学。当我年轻的时候，我能记住大量的诗歌。我也想成为一名教师的中文。现在我认为我的梦想可以成真：我将能够使用英语教外国朋友中文和与他们分享中华文化。使越来越多的人们将能够结识五千年的历史文化，繁荣我们伟大的中国。
我的未来不是梦。我深信它会成真。
Good morning everybody!It's my honor to speak here,and I am very glad to share my topic with you. Then today I'd like to talk something about What we cannot afford to lose! During our lifetime we will meet wlth all kinds of difficulties,and most peple will feel depressed and then give up,while only a few people are able to adhere to the end .in my opinion ,to some degree, perseverance：[,p?:si'vi?r?ns] is one of most important things we should cherish ,which will finally contribute to our success.
There is a story I have ever read that In 1883, a creative engineer named John Roeblingwas inspired to build a spectacular：
[spek't?kjul? bridge connecting New York with Long Island. However bridge-building experts throughout the world thought that this was an impossible feat and told Roebling to forget the idea.but Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion the father and son developed concepts of how it could be accomplished and how the obstacles could be overcome. They hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.
The project started well, but a few months later a tragic accident made Washington injured, unable to walk or talor even move.
In spite of his handicap：['h?ndik?p],Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever. Finally the bridge was completed 13 years later .
Today the spectacular BrooklynBridge stands in all its glory as a tribute：['tribju:t] to the triumph ['traimf] of one man's indomitable：[in'd?mit?bl] spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances.
After I read the story I realized that perseverance is much more important than many other things , And those who are optimistic and self-confident, and who enjoy doing something new, worry less about failure are the example we should learn from.
We need to appreciate the value in living, despite its many setbacks. Roads are for the journey, not the destination. Sunshine awaits those who keep the path!
Good morning everyone！
Since then, I become a junior high school has a semester. Look back this semester, heart is produced many feeling. This semester experience of each day, already in my heart left permanent marks, because these marks witness I such a new growth. Now I find myself seem to understand a lot of things, but closely studied and not exactly. Perhaps after also will laugh at the small, but now we have to smile back what we pass through the road.

Often raised questions, discussing with classmates, ask the teacher for advice, Well, teacher-student relationship between teachers and students get along closer together, In the mid-term exam, although feel good, but still not ideal place, still need to continue to work hard, losing their own learning. Knowledge has no limits, explore endless, the person's development also no limits, I still have a lot of knowledge to learn.
I want to make sure that future development goal, I also want to have confidence in the future. Of course, this requires painstaking training of teachers and schoolmates sincere help
I have to try.

honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:
it is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful saturdaymorning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the englishlanguage.
about a year and a half ago, i took part in my very first english speechcontest. when i stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly atme, i could hardly speak. i stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling invain for the right thing to say. my fears had paralyzed me.
while my passion for english has never changed, i lost my courage to speakin public. when my professor again encouraged me to take part in thiscompetition, i said “no.” i couldn’t endure yet another painful experience. helooked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. i willnever forget his words. “look,” he said, “we all have our fears, and you haveyours. you could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraid toever play again. running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. awinner is not one who never fails，but one who never quits.”
i spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. then imade the bravest and wisest decision of my life: i would face my fears –and takepart in the competition!
as it turned out, my dear old professor was right. now, here i am, onceagain standing before a microphone. my heart is beating fast, and my mouth isdry, but most importantly, i have faced my fears -- and that makes all thedifference!
尊敬的法官，各位来宾，女士们，先生们：
这是一个非常荣幸和高兴地在这个美丽的周六早上与大家分享生活和对英语的热情在这里我的情绪。
大约一年半以前，我在我的第一个英语演讲比赛的一部分。当我在与所有主演在我的眼睛直接站在麦克风，我简直说不出话来。我站在那里，尴尬和无奈，挣扎是徒劳的权利的说法。我担心我已经瘫痪。
虽然我对英语的热情从未改变，我失去了我的勇气在公众场所说话。当老教授鼓励我参加这次比赛，我说：“没有。”我无法忍受另一个痛苦的经历。他看着我的眼睛直说的东西刺穿我的心。我永远不会忘记他的话。“瞧，”他说，“我们都有自己的恐惧，
你有你的。捻你可以在一场篮球比赛中脚踝，但后来害怕再打球。出走永远不能消除你的恐惧，而是行动的意愿。一个胜利者是谁从来不是一个失败，但一个谁决不会退却。“
我花了整整一天，他的曲折和转折词在我的脑海。然后我做了我生命中最勇敢和最明智的决定：我将面对我的恐惧和参与竞争的一部分!
果然，我亲爱的老教授是正确的。现在，我在这里再一次站在了麦克风前。我的心快速跳动，我的嘴巴是干的，但最重要的是，我面对我的恐惧 -这就是差异!
You know, you know, we started this great effort on a sunny july morning in pinders corner on pat and liz moynihan's beautiful farm and 62 counties, 16 months, 3 debates, 2 opponents, and 6 black pantsuits later, because of you, here we are.
You came out and said that issues and ideals matter, jobs matter, downstate and upstate, health care matters, education matters, the environment matters, social security matters, a woman's right to choose matters. it all matters and i just want to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you, new york!
Thank you for opening up your minds and your hearts, for seeing the possibility of what we could do together for our children and for our future here in this state and in our nation. i am profoundly grateful to all of you for giving me the chance to serve you.
I will - i will do everything i can to be worthy of your faith and trust and to honor the powerful example of senator daniel patrick moynihan. i would like all of you and the countless new yorkers and americans watching to join me in honoring him for his incredible half century of service to new york and our nation. senator moynihan, on behalf of new york and america, thank you.
I promise you tonight that i will reach across party lines to bring progress for all of new york's families. today we voted as democrats and republicans. tomorrow we begin again as new yorkers.
And how fortunate we are indeed to live in the most diverse, dynamic and beautiful state in the entire union. you know, from the south bronx to the southern tier, from brooklyn to buffalo, from montauk to massena, from the world's tallest skyscrapers to breathtaking mountain ranges, i've met people whose faces and stories i will never forget. thousands of new yorkers from all 62 counties welcomed to me into your schools, your local diners, your factory floors, your living rooms and front porches. you taught me, you tested me and you shared with me your challenges and concerns - about overcrowded or crumbling schools, about the struggle to care for growing children and aging parents, about the continuing challenge of providing equal opportunity for all and about children moving away from their home towns because good jobs are so hard to find in upstate new york. now i've worked on issues like these for a long time, some of them for 30 years, and i am determined to make a difference for all of you.
You see, i believe our nation owes every responsible citizen and every responsible family the tools that they need to make the most of their own lives. that's the basic bargain. i'll do my best to honor in the united states senate.
And to those of you who did not support me, i want you to know that i will work in the senate for you and for all new yorkers. and to those of you who worked so hard and never lost faith even in the toughest times, i offer you my undying gratitude.
low-carbon life
—— a harmonious world
r ecently , low-carbon life becomes a high-frequency and fashionable word which gets the greatest concern in the world . low-carbon life means a lifestyle that people do their best to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. as to me, when i heard this word at first time, i just felt apathetic, but things came different when the following news hit me accidentally.
on nov.11th , the singles' day，there was a very special collective wedding ceremony entitled “zero release of carbon” at the seaside of shenzhen，where 37 pairs of new couples held their marriage oath activity and signed their names on a board to show their willingness to be the environmental guardian .
no hot food but buffet, no wedding limousines but bicycles, no fireworks but pigeons releasing. i was moved in a great sense by all these.
what impressed me most was an old couple who was over 60 years old. they appeared to be the most passionate one, expressing their solid determination to follow the lifestyle forever, which made me a bit ashamed. look! the low-carbon life is so close to us, even the old couples can do it, why can’t we young students? we should say, yes we can!
take me as an example, i’m a meat lover. every meal without meat, i feel uncomfortable, but recently, i changed my dietary habit . please allow me to ask you a question: do you know what is the main cause of the global warming?okay, let me tell you. those people who eat meat!that’s true! when we produce one kilogram meat, we will exhaust 36.4 kilogram co2 just like we drive the car for three hours. if every chinese eat meat one kilogram less than before, the emissions of the co2 will be 47,320,000,000 kilograms less than before! unbelievable!
eating habit is only one side, as a matter of fact, low-carbon life exists in all the aspects in our daily life. do not buy too many clothes、do not use lift if possible、 do not watch too much tv、 do use the recycled paper、do use the energy-saving lamp、do use the e-book and many many things ,remember , low-carbon is just around you !
lately , from nov.29th to dec. 10th , the united nations climate change conferencestaged in cancun , mexico , aiming to put the bali roadmap into practice and make it legally binding .besides , the international community has also taken effective measures to control the damage of our environment , leading to the foundation of various treaties like the united nations framework convention on climate change 、the kyoto protocol and so on.
in a word , as a college student，we should cultivate our awareness of energy saving; we should put it into practice; and we should help our
families and friends to live a low-carbon life. only by doing so can we hope to create a world where all humans enjoy a harmonious life. yes, we can!
Research experience and academic activity
When a sophomore, I joined the Association of AI Enthusiast and began tonarrow down my interest for my future research. With the tool of OpenGL andMatlab, I designed a simulationprogram for transportation scheduling system. Itis now widely used by different research groups in NUST. I assumed and fulfilleda sewage analysis &; dispose project for Nanjing sewagetreatment plant. Thiswas my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to a commercial product.
In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory andexperience, which has prepared me for the Ph.D. program. My future researchinterests include: Network Scheduling Problem, Heuristic Algorithm research(especially in GA and Neural network), Supply chain network research, Hybridsystem performance analysis with Petri nets and Data Mining.
Although winter means cold weather, I love it all the same. I think winteris a beautiful season, especially when it snows. Snowflakes fall down naughtily.They fall on branches of trees, on roofs of houses and on wheat fields. Soon thewhole earth will be dressed in white. Everything is shining in the sun. Everytime it snows, I will remember an old saying, "Winter has come, can spring befar away?"
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!
Ladies and gentlemen: Good morning!
Today, the title of my speech is A Lesson from Nature.
Around us , there are plants, animals and many other things. We live in nature, so to keep the balance of nature is very important for us. But today, too many trees are still being cut down in many countries and flood all over the world are getting more and more serious, A lot of land has gone with them. This is a lesson from nature.
When people move into a new place, they often cut down trees or pull out many wild plants to make farmland. They don’t know that trees can stop flood and wind from washing or blowing the earth away, and that many of these wild plants are food for some wild animals. If the animals can’t find enough plants to eat, they will die or have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a kind of wild flowers. The mountain tigers there eat the deer. But people killed many mountain tigers to protect the deer. soon there were so many deer that the ate up all the wild flowers. Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of the young trees .so the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees, then the deer had nothing to eat and many of them died.
The number of trees, deer, tigers, wild flowers and plants has changed much—less and less. We need to do more to keep the balance of nature.
Thank you!
DENVER — Parents and survivors of the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School are saying good things about an essay released Tuesday by the mother of shooter Dylan Klebold.
Susan Klebold made the most detailed public remarks by any parent of the two Columbine killers in an essay published in O, The Oprah Magazine. She said in the essay she had “no inkling” her son was suicidal or depressed.
The essay sparked strong emotions for Connie Michalik, whose son, Richard Castaldo, was shot and partially paralyzed in the rampage. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded 23 others before killing themselves.
The shooters’ parents have said little in public since the massacre. They gave depositions in a lawsuit filed by victims’ families, but a judge in 20xx ordered those depositions sealed for 20 years after the case was settled out of court.
Survivors and their families have been left wondering about the boys’ parents in the decade since the shootings.
“You know, I always wondered how she felt and what she went through. ‘Cause I know I went through a living hell, and I was always sure she did, too,” Michalik told The Associated Press.
Michalik, who has never met Susan Klebold, said reading the essay answered some of her questions about the Klebold family.
“I applaud her for the courage to talk about this,” Michalik said Tuesday.
In the essay, Susan Klebold described the day of the shooting. She at first feared Dylan had been shot at school, not that he was one of the perpetrators.
Susan Klebold said the family was evacuated from their home the afternoon of the massacre because authorities feared even Dylan’s residence may have been rigged to explode. Still, she said, it took months for relatives to accept that the quiet boy who loved origami and Legos was to blame for the violence.
“We didn’t know that he and Eric had assembled an arsenal of explosives and guns,” Susan Klebold wrote. “We believed his participation in the massacre was accidental or that he had been coerced. We believed that he did not intend to hurt anyone.”
The magazine released excerpts from the essay last week and published the full text Tuesday.
A magazine spokeswoman said Susan Klebold has turned down several interview requests over the years but agreed several months ago to share an essay. There were no plans for her to appear on the show.
In an introduction to the essay, Oprah Winfrey told readers, “Since the day her son participated in the most devastating high school shooting America has ever seen, I have wanted to sit down with Susan Klebold to ask her the questions we’ve all wanted to ask — starting with, ‘How did you not see it coming?’ and ending with ‘How did you survive?’”
A spokeswoman for Susan Klebold has said there would be no further comment.
One of the shooting’s survivors, Krystal Miller, said Tuesday she has long had questions for the Klebolds but understood their silence.
“Over the years I would’ve loved to hear something,” said Miller, whose maiden name was Krystal Woodman. “But it sounds like she is still just reeling from it and processing it. So how is someone supposed to come out and give answers when they’re still trying to figure it out themselves?”
Homemade Ship
Hans Andersen, a life-long fisherman, had a dream. He wanted to sail around the world. And he did it. He got several sponsors who subsidized his trip. He bought a beautiful 40-foot yacht, with all the latest technical and safety gear, and had a pleasant voyage. Well, except for almost sinking while going around the tips of South America and Africa.
The voyage went so smoothly that, looking back on it, he felt it was too easy. He needed a new challenge. He decided to build his own boat. But that was nothing new. Several people had built their own boats and sailed them around the world. No, he needed a unique boat. Watching TV commercials one day, he got it—ice cream sticks! He would be the first man to sail around the world in a boat built exclusively of ice cream sticks.
He put out the word. Within three years, school children from all over Holland had sent Hans 15 million ice cream sticks. He used these sticks to build a 45-foot replica of a Viking ship. After all the sticks were glued together, Hans took his new boat out to sea on a one-week voyage. “It’s magnificent, and totally sea-worthy,” he proclaimed.
He plans to set sail in early 20xx with a crew of two. He will sail across the Atlantic to Canada, and then down to Florida and through the Panama Canal. Then he’ll travel to Los Angeles, Honolulu, Tokyo, around the tip of Africa, and back to Holland. “If this trip succeeds,” he joked, “my next goal will be to build a plane out of ice cream sticks and fly it around the world!”

A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand and a heaven in a wild flower hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in ahour. Several days ago I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I‘d like to share it with all of you. Let‘s show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well let‘s make a fist. where is our future? where is our love career and life? Tell me.Yeah it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don‘t cry because it is over smile because it happened. From the past we‘ve learnt that the life is tough but we are tougher. We‘ve learnt that we can‘t choose how we feel but we can choose what
about it. Failure doesn‘t mean you don‘t have it it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn‘t mean you should give up it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world the world will give to us. And from today on let‘s be the owners of ourselves and speak out “We are the world we are the future.”
Hi, everybody. Sunday is Father’s Day. If you haven’t got Dad a gift yet,there’s still time. Just barely. But the truth is, what we give our fathers cannever match what our fathers give us.
大家好。周日是父亲节。如果你还没有给爸爸准备礼物，现在还来得及。大大方方地。但是事实上，我们给父亲们的永远比不上父亲们给我们的。
I know how important it is to have a dad in your life, because I grew upwithout my father around. I felt the weight of his absence. So for Michelle andour girls, I try every day to be the husband and father my family didn’t havewhen I was young. And every chance I get, I encourage fathers to get moreinvolved in their children’s lives, because what makes you a man isn’t theability to have a child – it’s the courage to raise one.
我深知你们一生中有个父亲是何等重要，因为我从小到大没有父亲。我深知没有他我们的艰难。所以对米切尔和我们的两个女儿，我每天都努力做一个好丈夫和好爸爸，这是我这时候家里没有的。我总是利用一切机会鼓励父亲们更多地融入孩子们的生活，因为这使你成为一个不止是有能力生孩子的男人，而是有抚养孩子的勇气的男人。
Still, over the past couple years, I’ve met with a lot of young people whodon’t have a father figure around. And while there’s nothing that can replace aparent, any of us can do our part to be a mentor, a sounding board, a role modelfor a kid who needs one. Earlier this year, I launched an initiative
called My Brother’s Keeper – an all-hands-on-deck effort to help more ofour young men reach their full potential. And if you want to be a mentor to ayoung man in your community, you can find out how /MyBrothersKeeper.
还有，在过去的几年里，我遇到很多没有父亲的年轻人。尽管没有什么可以取代一个家长，我们中的任何人都可以尽自己的努力成为导师，一个倾听者和孩子需要的任何角色。今年早些时候，我推出了一个叫做“弟弟的监护人”的动议--一个人人尽责的努力旨在帮助我们的年轻人发挥他们的潜能。
Now, when I launched this initiative, I said that government can’t play theprimary role in a young person’s life. Taking responsibility for being a greatparent or mentor is a choice that we, as individuals, have to make. Nogovernment program can ever take the place of a parent’s love. Still, as acountry, there are ways we can help support dads and moms who make thatchoice.
当我推出这个动议的时候，我说政府不能在任何年轻人的生活中起主导作用。担起作为伟大的父母或导师的责任是我们作为个人必须做出的选择。没有一个政府项目可以取代父母的爱。还有，作为一个国家，我们有很多方式帮助父亲们和母亲们做出这个选择。
That’s why, earlier this week, we brought working dads from across Americato the White House to talk about the challenges they face. And in a few weeks,I’ll hold the first-ever White House Working Families Summit. We’ve still gottoo many workplace policies that belong in the 1950s, and it’s time to bringthem up to date for today’s families, where oftentimes, both parents areworking. Moms and dads deserve affordable child care, and time off to care for asick parent or child without running into hardship. Women deserve equal pay forequal work – and at a time when more women
are breadwinners for a family, that benefits men, too. And because noparent who works full-time should have to raise a family in poverty, it’s timefor Congress to follow the lead of state after state, get on the bandwagon, andgive America a raise.
这就是为什么本周早些时候，我们邀请了一些来自全美各地的工薪父亲们来到白宫讨论我们面对的挑战。在今后几周里，我将在白宫举办白宫工薪家庭峰会。我们现在有很多职场政策还是1950年代的，现在是使它们跟上今天的家庭的时候了，这些家庭通常是双亲都工作。母亲们和父亲们理应得到可承受的儿保，可以请假照顾生病的父母或孩子而不至于陷入困境。妇女理应得到同工同酬待遇--当更多妇女成为家庭支柱时，男人也从中受益。因为我们不允许任何全职父母支撑一个家庭就要陷入贫困，所以现在是国会紧跟一个又一个州的潮流，给美国一个提升。
Dads work hard. So our country should do what we can to make sure theirhard work pays off; to make sure life for them and their families is a littleless stressful, and a little more secure, so they can be the dads their kidsneed them to be. Because there’s nothing more precious in life than the time wespend with our children. There’s no better feeling than knowing that we can bethere for them, and provide for them, and help give them every shot atsuccess.
父亲们勤奋工作。所以我们的国家应该尽力让他们的努力得到回报;确保他们和他们的家庭的生活更加成功一点，更加安全一点，以使他们成为他们的孩子们想要的父亲们。因为人生中没有什么比他们花在孩子们身上的时间更加珍贵了。没有什么比知道我们就在他们的身边，为他们提供他们需要的，给他们任何成功的机会更加幸福的感觉了。
Let’s make sure every dad who works hard and takes responsibility has thechance to know that feeling, not just on one Sunday, but every day of theyear.
让我们保证每个辛勤工作承担责任的父亲有机会不仅在一个周日，而是年年月月日日有这种感觉。
Thanks everybody, happy Father’s Day, and have a great weekend.
谢谢，父亲节快乐，周末快乐。
I believe it is in my nature to dance by virtue of the beat of my heart,the pulse of my blood and the music in my mind. So I dance daily.
The seldom-used dining room of my house is now an often-used ballroom — anopen space with a hardwood floor, stereo, and a disco ball. The CD-changer hassix discs at the ready: waltz, swing, country, rock-and-roll, salsa, andtango.
Each morning when I walk through the house on the way to make coffee, Iturn on the music, hit the "shuffle" button, and it's Dance Time! I dance aloneto whatever is playing. It's a form of existential aerobics, a movingmeditation.
Tango is a recent enthusiasm. It's a complex and difficult dance, so I'm upto three lessons a week, three nights out dancing, and I'm off to Buenos Airesfor three months of immersion in tango culture.
The first time I went tango dancing I was too intimidated to get out on thefloor. I remembered another time I had stayed on the sidelines, when the dancingbegan after a village wedding on the Greek island of Crete. The fancy footworkconfused me. "Don't make a fool of yourself," I thought. "Just watch."
Reading my mind, an older woman dropped out of the dance, sat down besideme, and said, "If you join the dancing, you will feel foolish. If you do not,you will also feel foolish. So, why not dance?"
And, she said she had a secret for me. She whispered, "If you do not dance,we will know you are a fool. But if you dance, we will think well of you fortrying."
Recalling her wise words, I took up the challenge of tango.
A friend asked me if my tango-mania wasn't a little ambitious. "Tango? Atyour age? You must be out of your mind!"
On the contrary: It's a deeply pondered decision. My passion for tangodisguises a fearfulness. I fear the shrinking of life that goes with aging. Ifear the boredom that comes with not learning and not taking chances. I fear thedying that goes on inside you when you leave the game of life to wait in thefinal checkout line.
I seek the sharp, scary pleasure that comes from beginning something new —that calls on all my resources and challenges my mind, my body, and my spirit,all at once.
My goal now is to dance all the dances as long as I can, and then to sitdown contented after the last elegant tango some sweet night and pass on becausethere wasn't another dance left in me.
So, when people say, "Tango? At your age? Have lost your mind?" I answer,"No, and I don't intend to."

我相信，随着心跳、脉搏以及心中的音乐去跳舞是我的天性。所以我每天都跳。
我屋子里那个很少使用的餐厅，现在经常被用来作“舞厅”——一个铺着硬木地板、配有立体音响装置的迪厅。我的换片箱里备好了6张碟片：华尔兹、摇摆、乡村、摇滚、萨尔萨和探戈。
每天早上，在去煮咖啡的路上，我都把音乐打开，并摁下“随机”键。跳舞的时间到了!不管放的是什么曲子，我都会随着曲子独自起舞。这是一种关乎存在的增氧运动，一种动起来的沉思。
探戈最近很火爆。这是一种很复杂的比较难跳的舞，所以我一周要上三次课，花三个晚上出去跳舞，我还打算去布宜诺斯艾利斯待三个月，接受探戈文化的浸礼。
第一次去上探戈舞蹈课的时候，我非常害怕，都不敢到地板上去。我还记得，有一次，在希腊克里特岛上，一场乡村婚礼之后，舞会开始了，而我却一直待在旁边不敢跳。那高超的步法让我眼花缭乱。“别做傻事了，”我想，“就看看吧。”
一位年龄比我还大的女士看出了我的想法，她从舞场中退出来，坐在我旁边说，“如果加入这场舞会，你会觉得很傻。如果你不加入，你一样会觉得很傻。既然这样，干吗不跳?”
然后，她说她要告诉我一个秘密。她低声说道：“如果你不跳，我们就会知道你是个傻瓜。可是如果你跳了，我们就会因为你的尝试而觉得你很棒。”
听了这席话，我接受了探戈的挑战。
一个朋友问我，我对探戈的嗜好是不是有点儿太狂野了。“探戈?你这个年龄?你一定是精神不正常了!”
恰恰相反：这是我深思熟虑之后的决定。我对探戈的热情掩盖了一种害怕。我害怕生命随着年龄的增长而缩短。我害怕因为不再学习、不再冒险而产生的无聊。我害怕在退出生命之局而等着末日审判的过程中，你体内发生的死亡。
我追寻那种随着新事物而产生的，尖锐而略带惊吓的喜悦——这就要求我全身心投入，对我的心智、身体和勇气同时进行挑战。
我现在的目标就是：跳完所有我能跳的舞蹈，然后，在某个甜蜜的夜晚，跳完最后一支优雅的探戈后，满意地坐下来，离开世界——因为我体内没有一支没有跳过的舞了。
所以，当人们说，“探戈?你这个年龄?精神不正常吧?”我便回答：“没有啊，我可不想不正常。”

Hello ,teachers ,boys and girls ! My name is Li Han . I’m 9 years old. I’m from Xiaoxi Primary School see I’m a cute girl . I like orange ,the sun is orange . I like drawing sun too . It makes me warm .
Now let me say a chant :
The man is the father ,tall,tall ,tall .
The woman is the mother ,not so tall .
That’s the sun ,small ,small ,small.
They are a family ,one and all .
Today my topic is my family . I have a happy family . My father , My mother and me . My parents love me very much . My mother is a PE teacher . She is tall and thin . Her face looks small and her eyes are very beautiful . My mother is very kind and friendly to others , but she is very strict with me .
My father is a teacher, too . He likes hard every day . He likes running and playing football. I love my father ,I love my mother ,they love me . I can sing a song : I love my family
I love my mother , I love my father ,they love me ,they love me . I love my grandpa , I love my grandma ,they love me ,they love me . That’s all ,thank you .
Let me begin my speech with a replay of scenes familiar to most， if not all， of those present here today.
＂Mum， I＇m sorry， but I need 3，000 yuan for my tuition this year.＂
＂Mum， it is my friend＇s birthday tomorrow， I must buy her a present.＂
＂Mum， this jacket was out of fashion long ago， would you do me a favor？ ＂
Take. Take. Take. The relationship between a mother and a child always seems to follow such a pattern. I know my mother is always there for me， providing me with everything I need； from food to clothing， from tuition to pocket money. I never thought twice about all she did until one day she said， ＂Will there be a time that you＇ll say you have taken enough from me？ ＂
Like a child endlessly asking， we humans， throughout history， have been continually demanding what we desire from nature. We enjoy the comfort and beauty of our furniture， yet we never bother to think about the serious soil erosion caused by deforestation. We take it for granted that we must warm ourselves in winter times， yet we seldom realize the burning away of precious natural resources. We appreciate all the prosperity from the development of modern industry， yet few would give the slightest consideration to the global air and water pollution caused by industrial wastes. Our ruthless exploitation has permanently impaired our mother earth. As we tragically learned from last summer＇s floods. we cannot continue our carelessness.
Finally， standing here at the threshold of the 21st century， we cannot help thinking of our posterity. Nature is not only the mother of the present generation， but also the mother of the generations to come.
How severely our descendents will criticize us if we leave them a barren and lifeless mother？ How much more they will appreciate us if we give them a world of harmony to inherit？ Let us start respecting and caring for nature from now on. Let us start the campaign of creating a mutually beneficial relationship between people and nature right from this moment. With this new start， I firmly believe， that our children， and our children＇s children will live in a brand new age of green trees， clean air， crystal water， blue sky and an even more promising world！

Facing this audience on the stage, I have the exciting feeling of participating in the march of history, for what we are facing today is more than a mere competition or contest. It is an assembly of some of China's most talented and motivated people, representatives of a younger generation that are preparing themselves for the coming of a new century. I'm grateful that I've been given this opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well.
Though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still represents, I believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past 15 years.
In my elementary years, there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons.
The teacher asked me to help her, and it was obvious that she expected a lotfromme. but as a young boy, restless, thoughtless, I always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself.
One day before the final exam, she came up to me and said, "Could you please explain this to me? I want very much to do better this time. " I started explaining, and finished in a hurry. Pretending not to notice her still confused eyes, I ran off quickly. Nat surprisingly, she again did very badly in the exam. And two months later, at the beginning of the new semester, word came of her death of blood cancer. No one ever knew about the little task I failed to fulfill, but I couldn't forgive myself. I simply couldn't forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, "Why didn't you do a little more to help me, when it was so easy for you? Why didn't you understand a little better the trust placed in you, so that I would not have to leave this world in such pain and regret?"
I was about eight or nine years old at that time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for I began to understand the word "responsibility" and to learn to always do my duties faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance which are the very foundation of human society.
Later in my life, I continued to experience many failures. But never again did I feel that regret which struck me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that I have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best I can.
As I grew up, changed and improved by this incident and many other similar ones, I began to perceive the changes taking place around me and to find that society, in a way, was in its formative years like myself. New buildings, new commodities and new fashions appear every day.
New ideas, new information, new technologies. People can talk with each otherfromany corner of the earth in a matter of seconds. Society is becoming more competitive.
Now, everyone is advocated to save, in addition to material things, there is time, also need to save.
In fact, one minute can do a lot of things, in a book, I see you can write more than 20 words a minute, can walk one hundred steps, we can see 1-2 pages. After watching, I couldn't help wonder: if do it for an hour, you can write more than one thousand words, walk thousands of step road, like dozens of pages, original, as long as make full use of their time, still can do a lot of things in a day!
Back when I was a child, every time I write a summer and winter vacation homework is in the last days of summer and winter vacation last half a month. Why is that? Because I had too much homework? Or because of me what is causing the delay time? Neither. Is because I was not good to save time, don't have to arrange their own time, I always play in the first place, only a little homework every day, until the final assault began. Because of this, my second grade every summer and winter vacation had bad, is a holiday with regret.
You can think about it, how many people regret for wasted time, and how many people because there is no cherish their own time, and missed a lot of things. "If then arrange their own time!" , "if could save time" at that time some people will say so. But, time is not flow back, and so sorry, as now, starts from me, to save time!
What we cannot afford to lose
We cannot lose innovation
There is a wonderful word which expresses the most original motions and desires among human-beings. With solving any kind of imperfections, our world has moved ahead. This is the word “innovation” that we cannot afford to lose.
We chicaned every detail of the innovation. Thousands years before, we created fire when we took a stone to knock another one. Since Han Dynasty, four great inventions had been created and it is one of the greatest signs that China become to the ancient civilized country. And nowadays, thousands of software, products, architectures and public facilities have upgraded more than that about 100 years ago. So how did these happen? What will you do if you are not satisfied with your tools anymore? What will you do if old mode cannot afford to develop in a company? There is no doubt that we should innovate no matter where we are and what we do. Not because of the design itself, but actually for its intended purpose.
If there was no Apple, everyone could not imagine how to contact others easily and enjoy a better Internet surfing.
If there was no Microsoft, perhaps we still worked in a dim office and duplicate some troublesome documents. If there was no Newton, and no theory of gravity, maybe I will win the Nobel Prize like Newton rather than just standing here. I have heard that three apple changed the world. The first one seduced Eve. The second one awakened Newton. The third one was in the hands of Steve Jobs. We sort of think the innovation of the world began with apple. I imagine lots of people want to become another Newton or Jobs right now with just one hand to change the world, right? Have the innovation to follow your heart. It somehow already reflects what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
Via questioning, we can start to innovate. Via innovating, we can start to create better lives. No innovation, no improvement. No improvement, no success. And no success, no civilization. Now, our time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life! Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice! Don't let yourself down! It is the innovation that we cannot afford to lose!
I heard a word"Don`t give , just be you.Because life`s too short tobeanybody else."I think what this word express is so yeah,so I wanna you tomemorize it.
Everyone has a beautiful dream and personal life principle.but on the waythat we hunt for the keys of acheving our dreams,there are many difficultiesappearing,thus,several timid men give in to them,one after another,some peaplelost their first dreams and even themselves.So!Many characters and pretty orhandsome stars around us,we are obesessed with some of those,and even ad occeanof peaple volunteer to imitate those idols.However,as we turn back,we will findin surprise,the tree is still the old tree,the house is still,......theeverything is still the same.We didn`t change them a little.
The same as our competitions,teachers always say:"You`d better read moreessays and memorize some perfect or wonderful sentenses,it`s helpful for yourwriting level."Well!I don`t think so! Personally,I feel we must keep on ourstyles and priciple,due to this,when readers read our essays,they might learnabout us better,therefore we will become happier to make the life colorful andmeaningful.So,I support that we read more books,rather than recite moreessays.
Being true to yourself implies if you are delighted,then you laugh,if youare sad,then you cry,don`t hide your mood,do not be hypocritical.Go on yourdream which is deep in your hear. You can`t become the other like magic,becausethere is no such thing as magic in the wold,OK!Let`s stand in front of themirror,carefully look at ourselves.Say:Calm down.Don`t get anything to botheryour heart,just be true to yourself.
i will invent a time machine in the as it 's been my dream in my life. timemachine allows people to travel back in time to prevent disaster to happen.
it also allows people to tavel into dinstant future to find out solutionfor incurable illness including cancer and aids. however, this machine may beabused by people to create chaos in our world or even completely change ourhistory. therfore, security features are essential for my invention.
the future invention of time machine will definately bring more advantagesfor human being.
