What is friendship? It is to relate with somebody without need for money or objective. It is to need emotion and over wealth is friendship , no matter what their background , age , or personality.
Friendship can be pure. We hear , nowdays, however, how one can be cheated by friends. Many people get along with someone because they have a lot of money. It is doultful that is real friendship.
Having friends, one can be find happiness. If you are in trouble your friends will help you through or at least comfort you. When you are happy , they share it with you. They are also there for you to chat with at any time.
It is a wonderful feeling, as the proverb says" to love each other is easy but to make frieds is hard", So, it is crutial that we should get along with our friends. In my opinon ,it is a shame to deceive your friends . The world would be more beautiful if it was full of filled with friendship.

青春不是指岁月，而是指心态。粉嫩的脸，红润的唇，矫健的膝并不是青春。青春表现在意志的坚强与懦弱。想象的丰富与苍白、情感的充沛与贫乏等方面。青春是生命深处清泉的喷涌。
青春是追求。只有当勇气盖过怯弱、进取压倒苟安之时，青春才存在。果如此，则60见之长者比20岁之少年更具青春活力。仅仅岁月的流逝并不能使他们衰老。而一旦抛弃理想和信念，则垂垂老也。
岁月只能使皮肤起皱。而一旦丧失生活的激情，则连灵魂枯老，使人生枯如死水，毫无活力。
60岁长者也好，16岁少年也罢，每个人的内心深处都渴望奇迹，都如孩子一般眨着期待的双眼，期待着下一次，期待着生活的情趣，你我灵魂深处都有一座无线电中转站------只有你我年轻，则总能听到希望的呼唤，总能发出喜悦的欢呼，总能传达勇气的讯号，总能表现出青春的活力………
一旦青春的天线倒下，你的灵魂即为玩世不恭之雪、悲观厌世之冰覆盖;即使你年方20.其实你已垂垂老也。而只要你青春的天线高高耸起，就可以随时接收到乐观的电波-----即使你年过八旬，行将就木，而你却仍然拥有青春，你仍然年轻。

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!
No one，regardless of race, religion or nationality, can deny that the world we live in is becoming increasingly intolerable because of the effects of global warming. According to many experts, even greater impacts are still on the way.There are numerous causes for this problem. On one hand, human-related emissions of carbon into the atmosphere is causing, and will in the future cause, significant global warming according to the theory. On the other hand, the lack of knowledge about the importance of protecting environment hinders the solving of the problem.It is urgent that immediate and effective actions should be taken right away. First, more trees need to be planted to help improve and beautify the environment. Besides, stricter laws concerning global warming and irresponsible use of fuel resources have to be put into effect and achieved good results. In a word, there is a long way to go before we can take a comfortable world for granted again .
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,
As I stand here speaking to you in English, I am already globalized. While shopping, I see the fair Chinese ladies carrying Prada handbags, I find they are globalized. Watching Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings with friends—yes, you can anticipate the refrain, we are all globalized!
In this era of globalization, we are one way or another all globalized. But realize this: when people’s heads turn to the fresh things that globalization literally delivers to our doors, the traditional things which we take for granted become ignored and sometimes forgotten. ConsiderLao Qiang, an ancient form of opera. It has almost vanished from the stage and only fewer than 20 people know how to sing it. So, how can we discover and explore our traditional culture? How can we rejuvenate and share them with the whole world? Well, there are three factors we need to keep in mind.
To begin with, the mass media plays a vital role in discovering traditional culture and connecting it with the widest possible audience. One evening in 20xx, for example, when my father and I were watching the final round of the popular TV showStar Road, we both became fans for a contestant named A Bao. We were attracted by his high pitched tenor voice, his traditional Shaanxi folk tunes and Shaanxi costumes. Apparently we were not his only fans. Star Road has aroused great popular interest in Shaanxi folk music. Such media can help popular audiences to discover lost arts and introduce people to them for the first time.
The mass media raise the people’s popular interest in the traditional arts, but it is the performing artists who really develop the people’s understanding of traditional culture. Yang Liping’s dance show Yunnan Image, based on primitive Yunnan dance style, has had an enormous influence in and out of China. Yang has recovered for us the primitive life in Yunnan. It is the raw and unadorned beauty of nature in her dancing that moves her audience most. We desperately need professional artists’ endeavor to discover traditional arts, to train apprentices, and to project our traditional culture on the global stage.
The third strategic factor in promoting our culture in global competition is an audience who knows what and how to appreciate our culture. But today’s youth—tomorrow’s explorers—are ill equipped to appreciate the traditional culture. Take myself as an example: I have had no painting or music classes since senior high school! No extracurricular activities like Chinese painting or calligraphy since primary school! What paltry little we learn about our traditional Chinese culture is relegated to a few lines and pictures in history books. We need our government and our school system to give us a better opportunity to embrace our traditional culture and discover its rich legacy for ourselves.
Ladies and gentlemen, the age of globalization should be a time for cultural discovery, not cultural extinction! Our traditional culture needs our concern and support to survive! With our combined efforts, we can save our valuable culture from extinction and showcase it, so it can shine brightly on the global stage, shared and enjoyed by people all around the world!
As we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.
Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.
But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all, it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, we’ve added years to life, but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.
And these choices are what life is about.
My hometown is in Shaanxi, where there are many specialties and ough Shaanxi cuisine has not entered the eight major cuisines of China, themutton paomo and Qishan saozi noodles in Shaanxi are very good. Next, I willtalk about the mutton steamed bun in Shaanxi.
In fact, we all know how to eat lamb paomo. We must break the bun intopieces. It is said that the soup of lamb paomo is very mellow. If you dont eatmutton and steamed bun in Shaanxi, its white. Be sure to eat. There is also amirror cake here. Its sweet and delicious, and the color is very beautiful.
There are many delicacies in Shaanxi. I wont tell you one by one ome to Shaanxi.
Thank you!
i have been in university for about one year. during my stay here, i came to realize that university life is like drinking coke. we experience all tastes of life here, sour, sweet, bitter and hot. i am from province, which is far away from here. i often miss my mum, friends, and relatives in my hometown. however, i can't see them very often. so loneliness always keeps me company. i am sad that i can't be there with them. lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. with more free time,we can do many more things besides study, such as joining societies clubs, and taking part-time jobs. such activities not only make our life more colorful, but also help us improve all kinds of skills. the university is a society miniature, what we learn here will benefit our future life. our path in life will not always be smooth. setbacks can't be avoided. failing an important exam, break up with boy or girl friend, or refused by a promising company, such setbacks are likely to get us down. sometimes we fell so frustrated that we even burst into tears. drinkin coke is wonderful, despite the undesirble consequent hiccups. it's bitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. and you'll even feel excited after gulping down a glass. a college experience is part of growing up. we cry, smile, fall in love, get hurt, leave, learn and then we become a better person. university life is like drinking coke. i'm experiencing it. and i know, i enjoy it!
It is undeniable that the worsening environment has become the biggest concern of the present-day world. Land resources are dwindling because of water loss and soil erosion. Waste gases poison the air we breathe. The rivers and lakes are polluted by waste dumped in them from factories. It is probably no exaggeration to say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind itself.
Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the price we have to pay for economic development. But I do not think that this argument is valid. After all, what is the point of economic growth if people’s lives are adversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?
There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can be achieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment. The key to achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem. Both governments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.
Good evening, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.
it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.
it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.
frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with them.indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions.
(examples).but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.
there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.
with the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture.
学生，嘉宾，老师和尊敬的评委
早上好！
我很高兴今天能和你分享我的梦想。我小时候想当老师。我父亲是一名教师，他教了我很多东西。我非常崇拜他。在我十岁生日那天，他问我。你长大后想做什么？”我自豪地回答说。我想成为像你一样的老师！”父亲一听，非常高兴，对我说，“努力工作，你的梦想就会实现。”前不久，我的一个小学老师生病了。她想让我代替她两周。我很高兴，但也很紧张。我父亲对我说，“这是一个很好的机会。抓住它！祝你成功！”当我走进教室时，孩子们非常高兴。
我向他们做了自我介绍。很快，我和他们相处得很好。他们都喜欢我，我也爱他们。与我的父亲和校长& # 39；在她的帮助下，我把工作做得很好。现在，我经常想念那些可爱的孩子。那次经历让我对将来当老师更感兴趣。
初中英语3分钟演讲文章3我妈妈是医生。她总是不得不加班，回家又晚又累。如果需要她，她必须立即去医院，不管晚上有多晚。在我很小还在上小学的时候，我曾经问过她为什么会选择这样一份枯燥又辛苦的`工作。她微笑着回答。是的，我有时很累，但看到我的病人越来越好，我从心底里感到高兴。”
随着我的成长，我逐渐理解了她的话，意识到医生是高尚的。我在初中的时候就下定决心要当一名医生，从那以后这一点一直没有改变。
我真的希望看到一个没有癌症、没有艾滋病、没有致命疾病、没有人生病的世界。但这只是幻想。现实呢？仍然有许多许多人面临灾难性的疾病，遭受持续的痛苦。仍然有许多许多人生活在令人难以忍受的条件下，过着悲惨的生活。还有很多很多人死于癌症，不情愿地离开了这个美丽的世界。所有这些事情让我感到悲伤，因为我认为每个人都有生存的权利。我想尽我所能帮助病人，减轻他们的痛苦。我想给病人带来健康的身体，尽我所能挽救他们的生命。我想看到人们被治愈，在我接受治疗后与家人和朋友幸福地生活在一起。所以我想成为一名医生，一名白衣天使。
当我成为一名医生时，我会珍惜每一个生命，无论种族、性别、年龄、职位和职业。我会尽我所能治愈不治之症。
我心里已经有一个梦想了，要尽一切努力去实现。作为一名现在的高中生，我会抓住每一个机会努力学习，用知识武装自己，为未来做好准备，为梦想而奋斗。我会下定决心，勇敢面对现实，不屈服于我遇到的任何问题。
就像哥特说的那样。人生重要的事情是要有一个伟大的目标，并决心实现它。”当医生是我的梦想。我觉得很简单但是很有意义。
The first step is to mix the flour with water. when the dough is ready we can begin to make dumpling wrappers. we use a rolling pole to roll the dough into small thin and round pieces so that they will be easy to cook. when the wrappers are done it' s time to prepare the filling. Usually we use meat such as beef or mutton and some vegetables such as cabbage or carrots for may actually choose whatever you like to put into it. we must chop those things into small put some salt oil and other condiments into it and stir it evenly. When all these preparations are done we can start making dumplings. First put a spoonful of filling in the center of the wrapper. Then stick the two opposite sides together and then the rest. Don' t just cover the filling with the wrappers. The best shape of dumplings is that of a ship because when they are boilin
welcome to nba.first, let me show a short video to you.
the first team i will talk about is houston rockets.in this team,there are two map candidates.one is t-mac,the other one is yao ming.there are bonzi wells,steve francis,mike james,shane battier and rafer alston also.i think it’s powerful enough.
some experts even claim that they could win 60 games.but in fact,they have lost 7 games.i think maybe they can’t win the games as many as the experts said,but they must be a strong power in the western this season if the stars specially tracy and yao could keep health.
the second team is dallas mavericks.last season,they won more than 60 games,but they were washed out in the playoff.and this team became the second team which won 60 or more games but lost the champion.
this season,most of the players there are in their golden age and i think they own the ability to create everything what even out of everyone’s expectation.
no.1 a helping hand 伸出援手
a man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put his head out the window to check. as he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.
he looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman looking down.
"is this yours?" he asked.
she said, "yes, could you bring it up?" and the man agreed.
on arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. as she was very attractive he agreed. shortly afterwards she said, "i'm about to have dinner. there's plenty. would you like to join me?"
he readily accepted her offer and both enjoyed a lovely meal. as the evening was drawing to a close the lady said, "i've had a marvelous evening. would you like to stay the night?"
the man hesitated then said, "do you act like this with every man you meet?"
"no," she replied, "only those who catch my eye."
One in four computers in the world comes from China; but from each computer produced, China earns only what 10 apples are worth. I read this in People’ Daily not long ago. While the force of globalization has spread Chinese-made products all over the world and earned China the name “world’s factory”, China earns very little profits from this kind of low-cost production. It’s even been said that China has to export 800 million shirts to get an airplane.
The problem is, China has involved in countless processes of production, but doesn’t necessarily have the intellectual property rights. If all we can be is part of the low-cost, labor-oriented production process, we’ll remain in a passive, disadvantaged position and gradually lose our competitive edge in the global arena. To develop China’s creative industry, transforming products from "made in China" to "created in China" has become one of China’s major tasks.
This transformation will be no less like a marathon, requiring much effort especially that from Chinese enterprises, the major force in Chinese economy. Though there’ s no one in front leading us which direction to run, there’s much to learn from some Chinese enterprises that have already found the right strategies and are shining on the global stage. These strategies involve brand identity establishment, technological innovation and modern management system.
Firstly, the brand that I mentioned above is an intangible yet most valuable asset to a company. It gains credibility from consumers, thus constituting the reason for consumers to buy habitually. Tong Ren Tang, the largest producer of traditional Chinese medicine, remains one of the oldest surviving brand names. The credibility that it gained through quality products has made its name known worldwide and maintains its recognized brand.
The second strategy is innovation of technology, which helps enterprises gain its core competency. In the global era where technology emerges at a rapid speed, one has to adopt the latest technology, and also to compete for the speed of developing new ones. The success of Haier, the third largest household appliances manufacturer in the world, lies in its constant innovation. Over the past 16 years, Haier has invested a total of 7 billion RMB in technological development, using 6 percent of its income for scientific research and the development of new products. At present, Haier's development operational speed is turning out 1.3 new products a day, maintaining its upper-hand in the fierce competition.
The third strategy is the establishment of modern management system. New Hope Group, the National Leading Enterprise for Agriculture, started from family-owned business. When the business was soaring and situation was changing, the family members had divergent views of management. To make sure of the development of their business, they decided to turn their company into a limited liability one, distributing property rights efficiently. Because of this, the company increased its competitiveness rapidly. Establishing a modern management system will lead to efficient levels of division of labor and efficient patterns in the business cycle.
With brand identity, technology and flexibility, China’s creative industries will blossom and give China the cutting edge in the fierce global competition. One day, China will stand firm and proud, with national brands thriving on the global markets, and with millions of products tagged “created in China”, instead of “made in China”.
Honorable Judges, Ladies and gentlemen, Fellow students, Goodmorning/afternoon:
尊敬的评委，先生们，女士们，各位同学们，早上/下午好!
I’m very glad to be here. My name is Wangqihang.
非常高兴能参加比赛。我的名字叫王启珩。
I’m ten years old. I come from Huanxi Primary school. I’m in Class 3, Grade5.
我今年10岁。我来自环西小学，现在五年级三班。
As a happy boy，I have many hobbies, such as sports, playing piano, singing,and drawing.
我是一个快乐男孩。我有许多爱好，比如体育运动，弹钢琴，唱歌，画画等。
Among them, travel is my favorist one. I have visited some other cities,like Beijing, Hainan, Chongqing, Guangxi, Qindao, Dalian and so on.
旅游是我的最爱。我去过不少地方，如北京，海南，重庆，广西，青岛，大连等。
Everywhere I went, I enjoyed the natural scenery and appreciated the humanlandscape very much.
每到一处都尽情享受那的自然风光与人文风情。
Not only that, I want to go abroad to take in the beauty of the custom ofother countries in the future.
不仅如此，我还希望能出国领略各国的民俗风情。
And I even dream about what the life will be when we are on planets otherthan our Earth.
甚至我还梦想着在地球外的其它星球上生活将会是怎样的。
That is why I’m so interested in the following scientific reportrecently.
Time flies. In a twinkling of an eye， four years later， I am no longer the kid playing hide and seek， nor the coquettish little girl lying in her mothers arms. On this day， I bid farewell to my alma mater for four years and walked into the gate of No.3 middle school with my perfect vision for the future.
Coming to the new school， my first feeling is fresh. The campus is so clean and tidy， with wide playground and bright classroom； there are amiable teachers and friendly students， which makes me believe that I am not in the wrong place. I like the environment there. There are plants and trees for company. There are classmates who care for each other. There are teachers who teach me carefully. Such a beautiful school， such a brand—new classroom， such a kind family， really let me surging new tide.
When you come to a new school， you should have a new look. In a year there， I will make up for my own shortcomings. Its not enough to attend all kinds of lectures， but also to pay attention to the teachers speeches I understand that it will be very difficult to do this. As long as you work hard， persevere and never shrink back， you will succeed.
I understand that everyones mind is not the same， the new semester everyone has their own plan， lets join hands to advance towards the goal of self！
Cherish what we are enjoying
It is a report about the new planet which holds possibility for life.
这是一篇关于发现了一颗有生命可能性的星球的报告。
It shows that European astronomers have discovered a new planet, they nameit Gliese 581 c.
说欧洲天文学家们发现了一颗新的星球，代号为“Gliese 581C”。
It is about 20.5 light years from our earth. They estimated the planet'saverage temperature at between 0 and 40 degrees Centigrade. It is orbiting thered dwarf star, Gliese 581.
它距地球约20.5光年。他们估计它的平均温度约在0℃～40℃之间。它围绕着红矮星Gliese 581运行。
Most important of all, it’s an earth-like planet. There might be mountin,sea and liquid water.
最重要的是，这颗星球和地球非常相似，它可能有山峦，有海洋，还有液态水。
So the astronomers believe that it is potentially habitable.
所以科学家们相信它能支持生命的存在。
However, Gliese 581 c might be "tidally locked" to it’s sun-the dwarf starthe way our moon is to the Earth.
然而，就像月球一样，它只会公转，不会自转。
It means that it must always show its same face to its sun, and that whileone side would be too fiercely hot to support life, the other side would be toocold.
这就意味着它面对红矮星的一面会太热不适合生命体而背对红矮星的一面则会很寒冷。
This report makes me to realize that how valuable our earth is.
这使我认识到我们地球有多么珍贵!
Everyday, we can see sunrise and sunset.
我们每天都可以看到日出日落。
The day and night keeps on exchanging. It’s not too hot in the daytimewhile not to cold at night.
一天早晚有变化，昼夜不停地交换使白天不过分热，夜晚不过分冷。
Everyday, I go to school cheerfully in the morning and skip along at theway home as the sun set.
清爽的早晨，我可以背着小书包高高兴兴地去上学。夕阳西下，我又蹦又跳地回到家。
We could experience changes through the four seasons of one year.
一年四季有变化。
Spring is the season sowing seeds. It is pregnant with life and green.
春天是播种的季节，充满了生机和绿色。
In the Summer, colorful swimming suits frolick in the water happily.
夏天五颜六色的游泳衣在水里欢快地嬉戏。
Autumn is the harvest season , the paddy fields and trees are covered withgolden color.
秋天是丰收的季节，金黄铺满了稻田洒满了枝头。
In the winter，We can have snow battle, playing to our hearts' content inthe world of silvery white.
冬天我们打着雪仗，尽情地在银白色的世界里玩耍。
How fortunate we are because we can live on the earth!
能生活在地球上,我们是多么地幸运啊。
We should cherish it, instead of polluting it, spoiling it or evendestroying it.
我们要珍惜它，千万别污染它，别糟践它，别破坏它!
If One day, it is really angry and stop rotation, that will have be adisaster for us human being.
如果有那么一天，它真的生了气停止了自转，那将是我们整个人类的巨大灾难。
So, let us protect our earth with our love, making it better and moreharmonious.
所以，让我们大家用自己的爱来好好保护宇宙中这颗唯一的地球吧，使它更美好更合谐。
A young American entered a British train
A young American entered a railway compartment on a British train, to discover that all seats were occupied, Including one on which was seated a small dog. To its owner, a middle-aged lady wearing a large hat, he said politely,“Excuse me, ma'am, but may I sit down?”She said nothing, but merely sniffed and turned over the pages of her newspaper.Again he said,“Excuse me, ma'am, but may I have this seat, please? And again she ignored him.For a third time the young American said,“Ma'am, would you please remove your dog so that I may sit down?”
And for the third time the snooty matron totally ignored him, so he opened a window, picked up the dog, threw it out, and then sat on the empty seat.
There was a stunned silence, and then an Englishman sitting opposite said,“You know, you Yanks are the strangest people. You drive on the wrong side of the road. You eat with the fork in the wrong hand, you name the floors in the wrong numbers, and now you've just thrown the wrong bitch out of the window!”
二.Environmental Protection
No one，regardless of race, religion or nationality, can deny that the world we live in is becoming increasingly intolerable because of the effects of global warming. According to many experts, even greater impacts are still on the way.There are numerous causes for this problem. On one hand, human-related emissions of carbon into the atmosphere is causing, and will in the future cause, significant global warming according to the theory. On the other hand, the lack of knowledge about the importance of protecting environment hinders the solving of the problem.It is urgent that immediate and effective actions should be taken right away. First, more trees need to be planted to help improve and beautify the environment. Besides, stricter laws concerning global warming and irresponsible use of fuel resources have to be put into effect and achieved good results. In a word, there is a long way to go before we can take a comfortable world for granted again .
三.The prejudice of the guide
In 1861 the Civil War started in the United States between the Northern and the Southern states. The war continued with great bitterness until 1865,when the Northerners were victorious. However, even today, many Southerners have not forgotten their defeat, or forgiven the Northerners.A few years ago, a party of American tourists were going round one of the battlefields of the Civil War with a guide who came from one of the Southern states. At each place, the guide told the tourists stirring stories about how a few Southern soldiers had conquered powerful forces of Northerners there.At last, one of the tourists, a lady who came from the North, stopped the guide and said to him,“But surely the Northern army must have won at least one victory in the Civil War?”“Not as long as I'm the guide here, madam,”answered the Southern guide.
thank you, mr. chairman.
mr. chairman, i join my colleague mr. rangel in thanking you for giving the junior members of this committee the glorious opportunity of sharing the pain of this inquiry. mr. chairman, you are a strong man, and it has not been easy but we have tried as best we can to give you as much assistance as possible.
earlier today, we heard the beginning of the preamble to the constitution of the united states: "we, the people." it's a very eloquent beginning. but when that document was completed on the seventeenth of september in 1787, i was not included in that "we, the people." i felt somehow for many years that george washington and alexander hamilton just left me out by mistake. but through the process of amendment, interpretation, and court decision, i have finally been included in "we, the people."
today i am an inquisitor. an hyperbole would not be fictional and would not overstate the solemnness that i feel right now. my faith in the constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. and i am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction, of the constitution.
"who can so properly be the inquisitors for the nation as the representatives of the nation themselves?" "the subjects of its jurisdiction are those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men."¹ and that's what we're talking about. in other words, [the jurisdiction comes] from the abuse or violation of some public trust.
it is wrong, i suggest, it is a misreading of the constitution for any member here to assert that for a member to vote for an article of impeachment means that that member must be convinced that the president should be removed from office. the constitution doesn't say that. the powers relating to impeachment are an essential check in the hands of the body of the legislature against and upon the encroachments of the executive. the division between the two branches of the legislature, the house and the senate, assigning to the one the right to accuse and to the other the right to judge, the framers of this constitution were very astute. they did not make the accusers and the judgers -- and the judges the same person.
we know the nature of impeachment. we've been talking about it awhile now. it is chiefly designed for the president and his high ministers to somehow be called into account. it is designed to "bridle" the executive if he engages in excesses. "it is designed as a method of national inquest into the conduct of public men."² the framers confided in the congress the power if need be, to remove the president in order to strike a delicate balance between a president swollen with power and grown tyrannical, and preservation of the independence of the executive.
the nature of impeachment: a narrowly channeled exception to the separation-of-powers maxim. the federal convention of 1787 said that. it limited impeachment to high crimes and misdemeanors and discounted and opposed the term "maladministration." "it is to be used only for great misdemeanors," so it was said in the north carolina ratification convention. and in the virginia ratification convention: "we do not trust our liberty to a particular branch. we need one branch to check the other."
"no one need be afraid" -- the north carolina ratification convention -- "no one need be afraid that officers who commit oppression will pass with immunity." "prosecutions of impeachments will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community," said hamilton in the federalist papers, number 65. "we divide into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused."³ i do not mean political parties in that sense.
the drawing of political lines goes to the motivation behind impeachment; but impeachment must proceed within the confines of the constitutional term "high crime[s] and misdemeanors." of the impeachment process, it was woodrow wilson who said that "nothing short of the grossest offenses against the plain law of the land will suffice to give them speed and effectiveness. indignation so great as to overgrow party interest may secure a conviction; but nothing else can."
common sense would be revolted if we engaged upon this process for petty reasons. congress has a lot to do: appropriations, tax reform, health insurance, campaign finance reform, housing, environmental protection, energy sufficiency, mass transportation. pettiness cannot be allowed to stand in the face of such overwhelming problems. so today we are not being petty. we are trying to be big, because the task we have before us is a big one.
this morning, in a discussion of the evidence, we were told that the evidence which purports to support the allegations of misuse of the cia by the president is thin. we're told that that evidence is insufficient. what that recital of the evidence this morning did not include is what the president did know on june the 23rd, 1972.
the president did know that it was republican money, that it was money from the committee for the re-election of the president, which was found in the possession of one of the burglars arrested on june the 17th. what the president did know on the 23rd of june was the prior activities of e. howard hunt, which included his participation in the break-in of daniel ellsberg's psychiatrist, which included howard hunt's participation in the dita beard itt affair, which included howard hunt's fabrication of cables designed to discredit the kennedy administration.
we were further cautioned today that perhaps these proceedings ought to be delayed because certainly there would be new evidence forthcoming from the president of the united states. there has not even been an obfuscated indication that this committee would receive any additional materials from the president. the committee subpoena is outstanding, and if the president wants to supply that material, the committee sits here. the fact is that on yesterday, the american people waited with great anxiety for eight hours, not knowing whether their president would obey an order of the supreme court of the united states.
at this point, i would like to juxtapose a few of the impeachment criteria with some of the actions the president has engaged in. impeachment criteria: james madison, from the virginia ratification convention. "if the president be connected in any suspicious manner with any person and there be grounds to believe that he will shelter him, he may be impeached."
we have heard time and time again that the evidence reflects the payment to defendants money. the president had knowledge that these funds were being paid and these were funds collected for the 1972 presidential campaign. we know that the president met with mr. henry petersen 27 times to discuss matters related to watergate, and immediately thereafter met with the very persons who were implicated in the information mr. petersen was receiving. the words are: "if the president is connected in any suspicious manner with any person and there be grounds to believe that he will shelter that person, he may be impeached."
justice story: "impeachment" is attended -- "is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations." we know about the huston plan. we know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office. we know that there was absolute complete direction on september 3rd when the president indicated that a surreptitious entry had been made in dr. fielding's office, after having met with mr. ehrlichman and mr. young. "protect their rights." "rescue their liberties from violation."
the carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."4 beginning shortly after the watergate break-in and continuing to the present time, the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors. moreover, the president has made public announcements and assertions bearing on the watergate case, which the evidence will show he knew to be false. these assertions, false assertions, impeachable, those who misbehave. those who "behave amiss or betray the public trust."
james madison again at the constitutional convention: "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution." the constitution charges the president with the task of taking care that the laws be faithfully executed, and yet the president has counseled his aides to commit perjury, willfully disregard the secrecy of grand jury proceedings, conceal surreptitious entry, attempt to compromise a federal judge, while publicly displaying his cooperation with the processes of criminal justice. "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution."
if the impeachment provision in the constitution of the united states will not reach the offenses charged here, then perhaps that 18th-century constitution should be abandoned to a 20th-century paper shredder.
has the president committed offenses, and planned, and directed, and acquiesced in a course of conduct which the constitution will not tolerate? that's the question. we know that. we know the question. we should now forthwith proceed to answer the question. it is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.
i yield back the balance of my time, mr. chairman.
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech！ my topic is Opportunities and Challenges.
First， I would like to know， what does your destiny offer you？ Happiness， wisdom， a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon， he would probably had said，”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair， but the chalice of opportunity.”
Needless to say， one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 20__ Olympic Games. Till now， we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen？ New roads， new subway lines， public—exercising equipments with beautiful colors， large blocks of grass fields， and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.
Other than those， there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example， more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment， for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more， Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances， could you even imagine us losing the holding rights？
I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question， ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you？”
For us， I mean the Chinese youth， 20__ Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us .The society is just like a ship， and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey！ Come here and take the helm！ ”How charming his voice is， but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning， however， when we wake up， we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing， most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ————that is someone who will give comfort to others.
At the end of my speech， I hope all the preparation will go well， and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.
中国人 am chinese
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
i am chinese. i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i've learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i've learned about zhang heng(张衡)and i've learned about zheng he(郑和).who says the yellow river civilization has vanished(消失)?i know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇迹)on this fertile land and we're still making miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders (掠夺) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
i once came across an american tourist. she said, “china has a history of five thousand years, but the us only has a history of 200 years. five thousand years ago, china took the lead in the world, and now it is the us that is leading.”my heart was deeply touched by these words. it is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise (鄙视) ourselves. we have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. we have reasons to say proudly： we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑战) are great, but our will is evengreater.
i am chinese. i have inherited (继承) black hair and blackeyes. i have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. i have also taken over responsibility. i am sure, that wherever i go, whatever i do, i shall never forget that i am chinese!
thank you.
“What would you do if you had only one day left to live?”
I asked this question to my young students when teaching English this winter. What were their answers?
“I would watch television!” the first answer. “I would play with the computer!” the second one. “I would play with computer TOO.” The girl finished her sentence perfectly with a serious smile. Indeed how cute and innocent that smile was, but how seriously my heart was hurt. I was too frightened to listen to more answers like that.
Ten years ago, at their age, I had a different answer: I would spend the last day of my life gazing at the face of my dear grandmother until I inscribed every detail of it onto my mind.
When grandmother was getting old and weak, my family bought her a telephone so I could save time and the trouble of traveling to her home by making phone calls instead. Later we bought her a television so she could watch modern dramas by herself. Then grandma must have been, we assumed, very contented and happy.
But I never really knew how grandma felt. She silently passed away without a word one night. When I heard about her death, a chilling pain pierced my empty heart. The pain grew even sharper as I tried to remember in detail exactly how grandma looked and I failed completely! How could I remember? I had not visited her for ages—it seemed like a century! My memories of her dissolved into thin air and leaked away like water.
Even though I have a telephone, can she hear me now?
Even though I might be on television, can she see me now?
Even though I have modern telecommunications, can she still communicate with me now?
With all these “tele”s, I was powerless.
Don’t people just love the word of “tele”, which means far away. Indeed this is how modern technology has changed our world. But please don’t forget this other word with “tele”: telepathy: which refers to human beings’ inborn ability to connect to our loved ones. Our minds are supposed to read each other’s minds; our hearts are supposed to feel each other’s hearts — and fulfill these without any forms of tool!
But the moment I desperately struggled to remember grandmother’s face, the telepathy between her and me had shut down forever. With the help of modern technology, I killed our telepathy.
This shall never happen again! The “tele”s are great inventions. But “telepathy” gives them the warmth of a human face. Let’s harness the power of television to excite our kids to develop their telepathy with nature… so that they can read the secret language of flowers. Let’s make the telephone lines provoke us to preserve our telepathy with each other, so we can connect in a warm and feeling way. Let technology keep our “telepathy” ALIVE! We need to wake up and make this happen.
I told my grandma’s story to those young kids that day. They got very quiet. They asked me for a second chance to answer the question. They had come to a new understanding – that very moment they had made to me and to our future together, a dear promise.
Thank you very much!
Its my honor to speak here and I am very glad to share my topic with all of you. Today Id like to talk about “my dream”. I do not just have one dream， in fact， I have three. They are： a healthy life， a happy family and to travel my great country.
I have always admired the long healthy life my grandparents have. They are older than 80 years of age and they are still alive and kicking！ How do they do that！？ My grandparents plant vegetables and grow rice themselves； even in their old age they still make food for themselves！ I guess that is why they can remain healthy. More importantly they remain humble and never ask for too much from life. Perhaps that makes them common， but they live a happy life. My grandmother once told me this：” I do not want to live long， only long enough for some grand children to be running around in my house”. I want to live a long， healthy and happy life just as they have.
Since my graduation from primary school， until now， every time on my birthday I make the same wish. I wish my parents will not fight anymore. I am not complaining that they gave me a bad childhood， they just fight so much！ I am unhappy but that does not mean they do not love me. They do！ They love me with all their heart. I love my parents also； I want them to live a happy life as well.
I want to travel this great country of ours. I want to see the beauty of our country. I want to see the miracles that made this country great！ I want to go from the east to west， from the north all the way down to the south！ I have a dream， that one day I can travel and see my country with my family and friends！ If that is not possible， seeing my country on my own is good enough also. If I can fulfill all three of my dreams in life， then God can take me away. I would be happy， and l would have lived a full and prosperous life.
Thank you everyone for listening to my dreams.
I have been in university for about one year. during my stay here, i came to realize that university life is like drinking coke. we experience all tastes of life here, sour, sweet, bitter and hot. i am from province, which is far away from here. i often miss my mum, friends, and relatives in my hometown. however, i can't see them very often. so loneliness always keeps me company. i am sad that i can't be there with them. lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. with more free time,we can do many more things besides study, such as joining societies clubs, and taking part-time jobs. such activities not only make our life more colorful, but also help us improve all kinds of skills. the university is a society miniature, what we learn here will benefit our future life. our path in life will not always be smooth. setbacks can't be avoided. failing an important exam, break up with boy or girl friend, or refused by a promising company, such setbacks are likely to get us down. sometimes we fell so frustrated that we even burst into tears. drinkin coke is wonderful, despite the undesirble consequent hiccups. it's bitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. and you'll even feel excited after gulping down a glass. a college experience is part of growing up. we cry, smile, fall in love, get hurt, leave, learn and then we become a better person. university life is like drinking coke. i'm experiencing it. and i know, i enjoy it!
我上大学已经有一年了。在此期间，我意识到大学生活就像喝可乐一样。我们在这里体验着所有的生活品味，酸甜苦辣。我来自一个省，离这里很远。我经常想念家乡的妈妈、朋友和亲戚。然而，我不能经常见到他们。所以孤独总是陪伴着我。我很伤心，我不能和他们在一起。我很幸运，大学生活丰富多彩。有了更多的空闲时间，除了学习，我们还可以做更多的事情，比如参加社团俱乐部，做兼职。这样的.活动不仅使我们的生活更加丰富多彩，也帮助我们提高了各种技能。大学是一个社会缩影，我们在这里学到的东西将会使我们的未来生活受益。我们的人生道路并不总是平坦的。挫折无法避免。如果考试不及格，和男孩或女朋友分手，或者被一家有前途的公司拒绝，这样的挫折很可能会让我们失望。有时我们感到沮丧，甚至放声大哭。喝可乐是很美妙的，尽管不受欢迎的结果会打嗝。这是苦，酸和胡椒，但也甜。你甚至会因为吞下一杯水而感到兴奋。大学经历是成长的一部分。我们哭泣，微笑，坠入爱河，受伤，离开，学习，然后我们成为一个更好的人。大学生活就像喝可乐。我正在经历它。我知道，我很喜欢!
世界是我们的，未来是我们的
Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshneof the deep spring of life.
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 an hour. 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.”
Three Good Friends
One day, a monkey rides his bike near the river. This time he sees a lion under a tree. The lion runs at him. He is afraid and falls into the river. He can’t swim. He shouts. The rabbit hears him. He jumps into the river. The rabbit swims to the monkey, but he can’t help him. Luckily, an elephant comes along. He is very strong. He helps the rabbit and monkey. Three friends are very happy. They go to the elephant’s home. Then, three of them become good friends.
I believe my dream
hello good evening everyone!
i'm so happy that i can be admitted by my dreamed school. the new campus gives me a new start so i have a dream that the future me can rise out this small world and hold a place of myself, after several years' experience.
in order to make this dream come true, i ask myself not only focus my attention on studies ,because i should face all the society not only my textbooks or my classmates.
i think college is also a small society where i can improve myself example i should learn how to get along with other though i may dislike them ,or how to deal with things that i used regard as worthless and so on.
then i sincerely hope i can find my true friends so that we can struggle for our dreams together!
although every thing is unforeseeable, i believe my dream will come true as long as i stick to them and never give up!
finally , i'd like to conclude by thanking everyone who has worked so hard to make this address possible. thank you!
Look for a Friend
Sam is a little fish. He lives in the sea. He is very lonely. He wants to have a friend. The friend looks like him. Sam sees an ink fish. The ink fish has eight legs. He doesn’t look like Sam. So Sam goes away. Sam meets a shark. He wants to say hello to the shark. The shark opens his big mouth. Sam runs away quickly. Sam is tired and hungry. He wants to have a rest. Then he sees a round fish. She says to him. “Hello! Would you like to be my friend?” Sam answers: “Of course! But you are round. I am flat.” The round fish days: “But we are both fishes.”
Sam thinks and says, “You are right. Let’s be friends.” They become good friends.
Everyone is attracted by beauty and beauty is powerful. But what is true beauty? Perhaps you can get the answer the following story.
This morning I went to the market to buy some vegetables with my parents. On the way we all highly praised a young man in western-style clothes and leather shoes who was riding by. But he rode so fast that he knocked an old lady down carelessly.Instead of stopping, he preted not to see this and rode away quickly. We were all very angry with the young man. To our happiness, a girl in plain dress ran forward at once, helped the lady up and took her home. We all praised the girl.
From this we know we cannot judge a person by his appearance. A person who is dressed beautifully may not have a beautiful soul. Only a person
who has a beautiful soul is really beautiful.
人人都被美和美所吸引，是有力量的。但什么是真正的美？也许你可以从下面的故事得到答案。
今天早上我去市场买了一些蔬菜和我的父母。路上我们都高度赞扬了一名年轻男子西装革履的骑着。但是他骑得太快了，他不小心撞倒了一个老太太，而不是停止，他假装没有看到这个，很快就骑走了。我们都很生这个年轻人的气。为了我们的幸福，一个穿着朴素的女孩立刻跑上前，帮助那位女士走了过来，把她带回家了。我们都表扬了那个女孩。
从这个我们知道，我们不能判断一个人的外表。一个穿着漂亮的人可能没有一个美丽的灵魂。只有一个人
谁有一个美丽的灵魂真的是美丽的。
