Hello,every!today I’m glad to give you a speech of “the youthdream”.
First I want to ask you some questions: Do you know what is youth? How do you master your youth? Different people may have different answers. In my eyes, youth is not rosy cheeks,red lips and supple knees. It is a matter of the emotion: it is the freshness, it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.Martin Luther King had said:
I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King.But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.
However, we need dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great.When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant.Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectivity, we will make it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
Hello, everybody! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, everybody. All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat. How is everybody doing today? (Applause.) How about Tim Spicer? (Applause.) I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia. And we’ve got students tuning in from all across America, from kindergarten through 12th grade. And I am just so glad that all could join us today. And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host. Give yourselves a big round of applause. (Applause.)I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school. And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it’s your first day in a new school, so it’s understandable if you’re a little nervous. I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now -- (applause) -- with just one more year to go. And no matter what grade you’re in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling. When I was young, my family lived overseas. I lived in Indonesia for a few years. And my mother, she didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday. But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.Now, as you might imagine, I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early. And a lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she’d say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.” (Laughter.)So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school. But I’m here today because I have something important to discuss with you. I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year.But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world -- and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed. That’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself. Every single one of you has something that you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide.

It is said that the custom of Spring Festival started in when people offered sacrifice to ancestors in the last month of Chinese lunar calendar. At that time, people prepared the sacrifice by doing thorough cleaning, having bathes and so on. Later, people began to worship different deities as well on that day. It is the time that almost all the farm works were done and people have free time. The sacrificing time changed according to the farming schedule and was not fixed until the Han Dynasty (202BC-220AD). The customs of worshipping deities and ancestors remains even though the ceremonies are not as grand as before. It is also the time that spring is coming, so people held all kinds of ceremonies to welcome it.
There are many legends about Spring Festival in Chinese culture. In folk culture, it is also called “guonian” (meaning “passing a year”). It is said that the “nian” (year) was a strong monster which was fierce and cruel and ate one kind of animal including human being a day. Human beings were scared about it and had to hide on the evening when the “nian” came out. Later, people found that “nian” was very scared about the red color and fireworks. So after that, people use red color and fireworks or firecrackers to drive away “nian”. As a result, the custom of using red color and setting off fireworks remains.
Preparing the New Year starts 7 days before the New Year’s Eve. According to Chinese lunar calendar, people start to clean the house on Dec. 24, butcher on Dec. 26th and so on. People have certain things to do on each day. These activities will end Jan. 15th of the lunar calendar.
My speech is over. thank you.
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we standsigned the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a greatbeacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in theflames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the longnight of captivity.
but one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the negro isstill not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadlycrippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. onehundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midstof a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro isstill languishing in the corners of american society and finds himself an exilein his own land. so we have come here today to dramatize an appallingcondition.
in a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when thearchitects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution andthe declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to whichevery american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men would beguaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit ofhappiness.
it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory noteinsofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacredobligation, america has given the negro people a bad check which has come backmarked "insufficient funds." but we refuse to believe that the bank of justiceis bankrupt. we refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the greatvaults of opportunity of this nation.
so we have come to cash this check -- a check that will give us upon demandthe riches of freedom and the security of justice.
we have also come to this hallowed spot to remind america of the fierceurgency of now. this is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or totake the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. now is the time to rise from the darkand desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. now isthe time to open the doors of opportunity to all of god's children. now is thetime to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solidrock of brotherhood.
it would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment andto underestimate the determination of the negro. this sweltering summer of thenegro's legitimate discontent will not pauntil there is an invigorating autumnof freedom and equality. nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but abeginning.
those who hope that the negro needed to blow off steam and will now becontent will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to busineas usual.there will be neither rest nor tranquility in america until the negro is grantedhis citizenship rights. the whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake thefoundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
but there is something that i must say to my people who stand on the warmthreshold which leads into the palace of justice. in the proceof gaining ourrightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. let us not seek tosatisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterneandhatred.
we must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity anddiscipline. we must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physicalviolence. again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meetingphysical force with soul force.
the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must notlead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, asevidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destinyis tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to ourfreedom.
we cannot walk alone.and as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shallmarch ahead. we cannot turn back. there are those who are asking the devotees ofcivil rights, "when will you be satisfied?" we can never be satisfied as long asour bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motelsof the highways and the hotels of the cities. we cannot be satisfied as long asthe negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. we cannever be satisfied as long as a negro in mississippi cannot vote and a negro innew york believes he has nothing for which to vote. no, no, we are notsatisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters andrighteousnelike a mighty stream
i am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials andtribulations. some of you have come fresh from narrow cells. some of you havecome from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms ofpersecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality. you have been theveterans of creative suffering. continue to work with the faith that unearnedsuffering is redemptive.
go back to mississippi, go back to alabama, go back to georgia, go back tolouisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing thatsomehow this situation can and will be changed. let us not wallow in the valleyof despair.
i say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties andfrustrations of the moment, i still have a dream. it is a dream deeply rooted inthe american dream.
i have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the truemeaning of its creed: "we hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men arecreated equal."
i have a dream that one day on the red hills of georgia the sons of formerslaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at atable of brotherhood.
i have a dream that one day even the state of mississippi, a desert state,sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed intoan oasis of freedom and justice.
i have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation wherethey will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of theircharacter.
i have a dream today.
i have a dream that one day the state of alabama, whose governor's lips arepresently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will betransformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will beable to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together assisters and brothers.
i have a dream today.
i have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill andmountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crookedplaces will be made straight, and the glory of the lord shall be revealed, andall flesh shall see it together.
this is our hope. this is the faith with which i return to the south. withthis faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone ofhope. with this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of ournation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. with this faith we will be ableto work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jailtogether, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free oneday.
this will be the day when all of god's children will be able to sing with anew meaning, "my country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee i sing.land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride, from everymountainside, let freedom ring."
and if america is to be a great nation this must become true. so letfreedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of new hampshire. let freedom ringfrom the mighty mountains of new york. let freedom ring from the heighteningalleghenies of pennsylvania!
let freedom ring from the snowcapped rockies of colorado!
let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of california!
but not only that; let freedom ring from stone mountain of georgia!
let freedom ring from lookout mountain of tennessee!
let freedom ring from every hill and every molehill of mississippi. fromevery mountainside, let freedom ring.
when we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and everyhamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that daywhen all of god's children, black men and white men, jews and gentiles,protestants and catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words ofthe old negro spiritual, "free at last! free at last! thank god almighty, we arefree at last!"
20年来,魏国强(音译)的目光一直没有离开过中国足球,但值得庆祝的理由却是少之又少。
"Its like the Chinese saying; you always think your children are the most beautiful no matter how ugly they are," the 30-year-old education specialist told CNN in Beijing.
“中国有句俗话:‘母不嫌子丑,狗不嫌家贫,’ 我对中国足球也是这样的心情。” 这位30岁的教育专家在北京接受CNN采访时说。
Dogged by poor performances on the pitch and corruption scandals off it, the Chinese game has been far from beautiful.
绿茵场上球员的欠佳表现和一些贪腐丑闻,中国足球一直不被看好。
But die-hard soccer fans like Wei finally have something to cheer about.
但是像魏先生这样的死忠球迷终于等到了这样一个欢呼雀跃的时刻。
Guangzhou Evergrande, a soccer team based in the southern city of Guangzhou, became Asian champions on Saturday, beating South Koreas FC Seoul to claim Chinas first continental title in 23 years in a stadium packed to capacity with fans wearing the teams blood-red colors.
11月9日星期六,来自南方城市广州的俱乐部球队广州恒大,在坐无虚席、尽是恒大鲜红球迷的主场击败韩国首尔FC,荣获亚冠联赛冠军,这也是中国足球在23年以来夺得第一个亚洲冠军。
"They are persistent and never surrender," said Wei, who watched the match on television at home.
“他们坚持不懈,从不言弃,” 魏先生说,他在家中的电视机前观看了比赛直播。
Evergrande will now play in the FIFA Club World Cup in December, pitting the team against the likes of German giants and reigning European champions Bayern Munich. Previous winners of the tournament include Chelsea, Manchester United and Barcelona.
今年12月恒大还将出征国际足联世界俱乐部杯,有机会与欧冠强队、德国劲旅拜仁慕尼黑场上较量。世俱杯之前的冠军得主有切尔西、曼联和巴塞罗那等。
China last tasted international success at club level in 1990 when Liaoning lifted the trophy of the now expired Asian Club Championship. Its national team has also punched below the countrys weight.
中国最近一次品尝国际俱乐部级的成功是在1990年,辽宁队举起了亚洲足球俱乐部冠军联赛(现已停办)的奖杯。国家队一直没有令人瞩目的表现。
Despite being one of the countrys most popular sports -- President Xi Jinping is said to be a big fan -- China failed to qualify for the 20__ World Cup and did not enter the running for the 20__ tournament.
尽管足球是中国最受欢迎的体育项目之一——据说国家主席 也是足球迷——但中国没有打入20__世界杯,也没有入围20__年世界杯承办权的角逐。
Evergrandes rise to the top of Asian football has been fast and furious and some say it could be Asias first "superclub."
恒大以迅雷不及掩耳之势跃居亚洲足球之冠,有人说,它可能成为亚洲第一家“超级俱乐部”。
In early 20__, the team was bought by Xu Jiayin, the boss of property developer Evergrande Real Estate Group and Chinas 13th richest man, according to Forbes.
20__年初,福布斯中国富人榜名列13的恒大地产集团老板许家印出手买下这支球队。
He paid 100 million yuan ($16.4 million) for the club, shocking many as the team had recently been relegated to the second division of Chinas league. In 20__, they won the Chinese Super League and claimed the league title for the third time this year.
他为俱乐部投入1亿人民币(合1千4百万美元),这样的大手笔让许多人吃惊不小,因为这支球队当时刚被降级中甲。20__年,他们重返中超夺冠,并在今年第三次蝉联冠军。
Dong Jianzheng, an editor at the Chinese-language World Soccer Magazine, credits Xus deep pockets as the main reason for the teams success.
《足球世界》杂志中文版编辑董建峥将该球队的成功归功于许家印的经济实力。
The club has spent at least 1.5 billion yuan ($250 million) in the past three years, according to The China Daily, recruiting domestic stars and foreign players like Brazilian striker Muriqui. The team is led by Marcello Lippi, who coached the Italian team that won the 20__ World Cup.
根据《中国日报》的报道,恒大在过去的3年里至少花掉15亿元人民币(合2亿5千万美元),招募国内球星和巴西中锋穆里奇等外援。该队的主教练马尔切洛·里皮曾率意大利队问鼎20__年世界杯。
"The Evergrande model is similar to Chelsea and Manchester, where they win simply because they invest," Dong told CNN.
“恒大模式类似于切尔西和曼联,他们赢,只因为舍得下本钱投资,” 董先生接受CNN采访时说。
"They have a strong team and a large number of foreign players. They are good because they dare to throw in their money." But he said Evergrandes success doesnt represent the big picture.
“他们有实力强大的球队,有很多外援加盟。他们之所以出色,因为敢于砸钱投资。但是,他说恒大的成功并不代表大环境。
A bribery investigation that led to several players, referees and managers serving jail terms has left many fans disillusioned with the Chinese game.
中国足球贪污受贿案将一些球员、裁判和经理人送进监狱,导致许多粉丝不再对中国足球抱有幻想。
Rowan Simons, the author of "Bamboo Goalposts: One mans quest to teach the Peoples Republic of China to love football", says corruption reaches down to the sports grassroots, which suffer from a lack of investment.
《足球无疆》的作者罗文·西蒙斯说,足球投资匮乏,腐败侵蚀到了足球运动的根基。
"Parents will bribe the coach to get (their child) into the team, teams will bribe the referee to win the game," said Simons, who has lived and played football in China for more than 20 years.
“父母向教练行贿,这样他们的孩子才能进球队,球队行贿裁判赢球,” 住在中国与中国足球打了20多年交道的西蒙斯说。
Hopes are high that Evergrandes arrival on the international soccer stage will give a much-needed boost to the countrys football system.
恒大登上国际足球舞台将给予中国足球体制亟待的推动,人们对此寄予厚望。
The president of the Asian Football Confederation, which runs the regions premier tournament, said that Evergrandes win would infuse new life into Chinese football and spread the game to a wider audience.
亚洲足联主席表示,恒大的成功将为中国足球注入新活力,吸引更多的观众。亚足联主要负责举办地区性的重要足球赛事。
"I am confident that this will benefit not only the Chinese Super League but also the national team in a big way," said Shaikh Salman bin Ebrahim.
“我相信,这一成功不仅对中超而且对国家队都极为有利,” 亚足联主席谢赫萨尔曼·本·易卜拉欣说。
But they will have a hard time convincing fans like Cui, an engineer, who spends his spare time glued to the English Premier League, Europes UEFA Champions League and Spains La Liga.
但是他们想拥有像崔工程师一样的球迷还有很长一段路要走,崔先生把业余时间都花在看英超联赛、欧冠比赛和西甲联赛上。
He says he wont make the effort to watch Evergrandes FIFA Club World Cup match against Egyptian side Al Ahly in December. "The time difference is a challenge, but I still choose foreign matches because they are much more professional," he told CNN.
他说,他对12月的俱乐部世界杯恒大对埃及阿赫利的比赛兴趣不大,。“尽管时差是一大挑战,但是我仍然选择外国的球赛,因为他们专业得多,”他告诉CNN。
星期五晚上,我和我的同学一起去邦德过万圣节。
站在邦德的门口,有一个巨大的,恐怖的鬼,迎接着我们,好像一进去就到了魔鬼的地狱。
在里面有些同学都装成了鬼,但我跟他们不一样,我装扮的是女巫。
里面最好玩的就是饿死鬼投胎,我和我同学玩,首先用左手摸住耳朵,用右手捻住鼻子,弯下腰,原地转三圈,老师把薯片放到我们的鼻子上,用舌头吃薯片。我的薯片已落地了,但我的同学吃到了。她真牛!
马上万圣节就要结束了,我真想再待在那里玩。
On Friday night, I went to bond with my classmates for Halloween.
Standing at the gate of bond, there was a huge, terrifying ghost thatgreeted us as if we were in the devil's hell.
There are some students in there who pretend to be ghosts, but I'm not likethem. I'm a witch.
Inside the most fun is hungry you damn fool reborn, my classmates and Iplay, first with his left hand to touch her ears, with his right hand twist yournose, bent down, turn around three times in situ, the teacher put potato chipsin our nose, using your tongue to eat potato chips. My chips have landed, but myclassmates have it. She is very cow!
Halloween is coming to an end and I really want to stay there.
Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the Christian World.
According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more. "Christmas"- meaning "celebration of Christ "- honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.
Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C. (Before Christ )and A.D. ( a Latin phrase, Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord.") For the first 300 years, Jesus' birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354, church leaders chose December 25 as his birthday.

凯尔特人(Celtic)相信太阳神帮助他们种植农作物。但是,每年太阳神都会被一个名叫Samhain的邪恶力量攻击并被囚禁六个月。Samhain,还有两个称号,分别是"Lord ofDead(死亡领主)"以及"Prince of Darkness(暗黑王子)",他带着寒冷以及黑暗的冬天来到凯尔特人的土地。
凯尔特人非常害怕10月31日的夜晚,因为他们觉得这晚,有一堆邪恶灵魂潜伏在任何地方。他们在家生起火来让那些邪恶灵魂离开他们的家(上一个没有翻译的段落有一句是说火焰可以把鬼魂吓走的。)他们相信是Samhain把死人叫出来的,他们还相信Samhain会把死人变为其他东西,好像猫。凯尔特人会装着可怕的伪装来把那群邪恶灵魂赶走。(这就是万圣节的原型)
后罗马占领了凯尔特人的土地,把罗马的节日和凯尔特人10月31日的Samhain祭典合在一起,就成了现在的万圣节。
Celtic believed that the sun god helped them grow crops. But each year thesun god is attacked by an evil force called Samhain and spent six months incaptivity. Samhain, and two other titles, "Lord of Dead" and "Prince ofDarkness", came to Celtic land with cold and dark winters.
The celts are very afraid of the night of October 31, because they feellike there's a bunch of evil souls lurking everywhere. They set fire to theirhome to let evil spirits leave their homes. (the last untranslated paragraph wasthat the flames could frighten the ghost away.) They believed Samhain had calledthe dead, and they believed that Samhain would turn the dead into somethingelse, like a cat. The celts will be disguising their evil spirits with terribledisguises. (this is the prototype for Halloween.)
Then Rome took over the Celtic lands and put the Roman holiday togetherwith the Celtic Samhain festival on October 31, and it was now Halloween.

Eat every day to designated to eat on time, also must eat meat every meal, if which day which a meal not eat meat to it, it will break into a furious rage, flutters to where is the water from the tank. So I on time every day to feed it, at half past six in the morning for a small lean lean, half three pieces of lean lean, twelve o 'clock noon in the afternoon at half past two piece of lean lean, under the care of me, little turtle gradually grew up ready to grow.
Mom and dad took me to the zoo yesterday, and I will change the calendar to get up at 7:00 in the morning, nature, had changed to 7:10 feed the turtle. Tired of I tired to sleep sleep in the night, was asleep incense, suddenly, only heard a loud "crash". Ah! My head, I sat up, glanced at his watch "day!" It is time to the feed the turtle, I to the tank in a look, little turtle? I looked at around, little turtle was walking in my bed! And the turtle is hungry, it had to climb out of a fish tank, hit on my head to my protest!
Since then, I think I dare not again late feed the turtle, lovely small tortoise! You say I love you or hate you?
My lovely little turtle!
Almost everyone knows the famous Chinese saying:A young idler,an old beggar. Throughout history,we have seen many cases in which this saying has again and again proved to be true.
It goes without saying that the youth is the best time of life,during which one's mental and physical states are at their peaks. It takes relatively less time and pains to learn or accept new things in a world full of changes and rapid developments. In addition,one is less likely to be under great pressure from career,family and health problems when young. Therefore,a fresh mind plus enormous energy will ensure success in different aspects of life.
Of course,we all know:no pains,no gains. If we don't make every effort to make good use of the advantages youth brings us,it is impossible to achieve any goals. As students,we should now try our best to learn all the subjects well so that we can be well prepared for the challenges that we will face in the future.
万圣夜(Halloween)(又叫鬼节,万圣节前夜)在每年的10月31日,是英语世界的传统节日,主要流行于北美、不列颠群岛、澳大利亚、加拿大和新西兰。当晚小孩会穿上化妆服,戴上面具,挨家挨户收集糖果。华语地区常将万圣夜误称为万圣节。
万圣夜英文称之“Halloween”,为“AllHallowEve”的缩写,是指万圣节(AllHallow'sDay)的前夜,类似于圣诞夜被称为“ChristmasEve”。“Hallow”来源于中古英语halwen,与holy词源很接近,在苏格兰和加拿大的某些区域,万圣节仍然被称为“AllHallowMas”,意思是在纪念所有的圣人(Hallow)那一天,要举行的弥撒仪式(Mass)。
万圣夜通常与灵异的事物联系起来。欧洲传统上认为万圣节是鬼魂世界最接近人间的时间,这传说与中国的盂兰节类似。美国明尼苏达州的Anoka号称是“世界万圣节之都”,每年都举行大型的巡游庆祝。
Halloween (Halloween) (also called Halloween, Halloween) on October 31 ofeach year, is a traditional festival of the English speaking world, mainly inNorth America, the British Isles, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. That nightthe child would wear a costume, mask and go from house to house collectingcandy. The Chinese region often mistakenly calls Halloween a Halloween.
"Halloween", an abbreviation of "AllHallowEve," refers to the eve ofAllHallowEve, which is called "ChristmasEve" on Christmas Eve. "Hallow" isderived from middle English halwen with holy etymology is very close, some areasin Scotland and Canada, Halloween is still known as "AllHallowMas", meaning isin memory of all saints (Hallow) on that day, to a Mass (Mass).
Halloween is usually associated with something different. Traditionally,Halloween is considered to be the closest thing to human life in the world, andthe legend is similar to that of China's elam. The Minnesota city of Anoka,which claims to be the "Halloween capital of the world", holds a huge paradeevery year.

Dear classmates:
High three students, our footprint is binding on the cover of the season, the cover page of life, we will go to journey in June next year, run towards the dreams of June.
Many people say that the high three students like jingwei filling the stream, his mouth as if never plays with ABC and XYZ, thick lens grew up, grew thin hair down... Three means that enrich the sunrise, sunset.
So, three high school year is doomed to be heavy, heavy learning, heavy, heavy expectations, with lots of attention... Everything is in order to heavy harvest. Harvest, insist on, in the struggle! Nietzsche said: "a tree should grow taller, accept more light, then its root must be deeper into the darkness." And the third year is tough and lonely to grow like a tree.
We all know that: "the youth is beautiful". It not only beautiful in the beautiful appearance, even more beautiful in uplifting the spirit of the beauty in involve forward determination. We are ordinary, because we and other cold window study hard scholar as well as in the dream; We are special, because we need to do is a life the most critical.
Content is always happy, not happy people regularly, few people can know need how much effort to realize the dream of heart, we can only move forward, forward, forward again. So we're going to have such a determination and drive: "stick to it, never give up!" Don't pick the fruit of autumn in the summer. Pick, food is not sweet, abandon a pity, or wait until the harvest season to taste the joy of harvest!
大家都知道,每年的十月三十一日是万圣节,万圣节那天,每人要穿着鬼服装,你们知道这是为什么吗?哈哈,我就告诉你们吧:因为西方国家的新年在十一月,他们认为过年前一晚,有很多鬼出没,有精灵、妖精、吸血鬼等,我们穿着鬼服装,他们以为我们也是鬼,就不怕了,所以我们要穿鬼服装。
那你们知道为什么要做南瓜灯呢?我也来告诉你们吧:因为鬼要骗我们,比如说堕落天使,他们就是人类的敌人,我们在南瓜灯上刻了一个鬼脸,就是笑他们,笨蛋才会上你们当呢!
我想你们也知道了了万圣节的由来了吧!
Everyone knows that Halloween is on October 31st every year, and onHalloween, everyone is dressed in ghost costumes. Do you know why? Ha ha, I willtell you: because the western New Year in November, they think that the nightbefore New Year, there are a lot of haunted by the ghost, elves, goblins,vampires, we wear ghost costumes, they think we are ghosts, not afraid, so wehave to wear ghost costumes.
So why do you want to make a jack-o '-lantern? I'll tell you: because theywant to cheat us, for example the fallen angels, they are the enemy of mankind,we carved an image of a face on the pumpkin, they is a smile, when a foolmeeting you!
I think you know the origin of Halloween!
Ladies and gentlemen:
There is a kind of love that encourages us when we are in trouble. There isa kind of love that helps us when we go through all kinds of storms. When we arein danger, she always feels... She is the great mother love!
I once asked my mother, "what do you like best?" The mother immediatelyanswer: "you bai!" I was shocked. Mother didn't say what gold diamond, but sayme! My mother told me that she could not lose me. I am the best partner of herlife!
As anyone who has seen the love of love knows, our mothers will always turnthe dangers we encounter into our own peril. Maternal love is selfless. Ourmothers raise and take care of us. They never ask for compensation. They justwant us to grow healthy.
Mother is ordinary, and also great. From the moment we were born, it meantthat our mother was going to be working hard: she taught us how to use soup ladsto help us learn... It's all mother's job. They are still happy because they arehappy.
On mother's day, mother, I want to say to you sincerely, happy mother'sday!
students, we come from? to hear this question, i am sure you will say that parents are taken to put us up in the world. yes ah, one day more than a decade ago, our parents happy with tears and smiles to greet the arrival of the u.s.. but when we came to the world the moment that many parents have a hard job - we take care of. this is even though a heavy burden, but has no complaints to parents raising me up.
in order to give us a comfortable living environment, they are always so hard, then the effort. small, i always treat this issue as a matter of course, because i do not know, nor do i know the hard work of parents. now, i grew up, and i know with a heart of thanksgiving to appreciate their parents, should take on, take care of, the responsibility of your parents
there is an old said: "the milk of the sheep have to kneel tu, a feed has meaning." bit by bit, our growth can not be separated from their parents to help when the water springs of the tu reported that, therefore, we should know how to feel gratitude for it, know how to thank their parents .
call us first time parents, first step towards independence, the first to write a word askew when ... ... are parents around to teach us patience. parents, are giving us god does not require any modification of the sustenance of the soul.
when we are confronted with difficulties, to devote all of us to help people, their parents are.
when we are wronged, to be patient to listen to our cry of the people, their parents are.
when we make mistakes, he will not hesitate to forgive us who are parents.
when we succeed, would like for us to celebrate, to share with us the pleasure, are the parents.
and now far away in our field study, it is still concerned about our parents.
... ...
now i left the distant parents, came here, the mother will ask me homesick, i very firmly said: "no, certainly not!"
but to the school, in the face of unfamiliar faces unfamiliar environment, i want to cry well. are upset when the home to the phone, the mother the right to ask me please. my tears quickly down, and tried to not let her find.
not familiar with the latter slowly, although it was no longer such as homesickness, but there are always unhappy when the advent of a lot of times at night, when feeling lonely, they will naturally think of distant family members, think of it in the remote mountain village in their own lives more than a dozen of the spring and autumn, and a phone call out greetings and listen to the voices of parents and that kind.
When you are scrawled written assignments, will think of the teacher letyou write your homework is to who? When you are absent-minded in class, willthink of the teacher prepares a lesson of hard, tired? Driving when you hear theteacher caught a cold to cough, will think of the teacher to the class andclass? When you are sick, when the teacher asked cold ask warm to you, willthink of the teacher care for you? When you make a mistake, theteacher criticism, you will know that this is for your own good?
Time flies, we slowly grow up, the teacher slowly getting old. Her unusuallove for us, do you have any feeling. That every little bit of love, no changefor us.
当你正潦草的写着作业时,是否会想起老师让你写作业是为了谁?当你在上课时心不在焉时,是否会想起老师备课时的辛苦,疲惫?当你听到老师感冒时一阵阵的咳嗽声时,是否会想起老师为了全班同学而上课?当你生病时,老师对你问寒问暖时,是否会想起老师对你的关爱?当你犯了错时,老师严厉批评你时,是否会知道这是为你好?
时光飞逝,我们慢慢长大了,老师慢慢变老了。她对我们非同寻常的爱,你有没有感受。那一点一滴的爱,对我们丝毫没有改变。
Thank sunshine flowers, because the sunshine tending it grow; The eaglethanks to the blue sky, because the blue sky let it fly freely; Teacher, I thankyou, because you to our knowledge, make our healthy growth.
Once, when I was sick for a week, take medicine not better, is that yougive me to find a kind of earthwork, cured my disease. My grades down, is yourpatience to help me, until I put on.

有一次,我病了一个星期,吃药不见好转,是您给我找来一种土方药,治好了我的病。我的成绩降下来了,是您耐心帮助我,直到我把成绩提上。在考试前,老师总是提醒我们要细心做题、检查。当我们放学回家了,还在那张破旧的桌子上批改作业的是亲爱的老师。
老师,我感谢您,是您无私的奉献,教给我们知识。等我们长大了,您却老了,我对您的爱永远不会“老”,都说女儿是妈妈的贴心小棉袄,我愿做您的一件贴心小棉袄,陪在您的身边,让您感觉到永远的温暖。
my name is , i m a girl that has a lot of hobbies, including reading, drawing, and playing badminton. i usually woke up very early in the morning, because ma-ki-ng breakfast is also one of my hobbies. i love ma-ki-ng breakfast to my family, since this gives me a feeling of warmness. when i come back from school, homework is the first thing i will do. then is my hobby time, i usually go out with my friends and plays badminton; after that, if i have time i might read a book. mystery book is my favorite genre. in loves the feeling of guessing what will happen next. if i guessed right i would feel glory and proud of myself. even though i guessed wrong, i can learn from my mistake. in the world of books, i find the real side of me; smart, and be willing to learn.
what is the biggest effect of the internet.
no invention has received more praise and abuse than internet .
there is no doubt that we can do the things that for us may be difficult or even impossible in the past with the help of internet . we can communicate with the friends we have lost touch with for many years by the internet
i enjoy go on line ,for i can do whatever i like ,such as talking with my friends,chatting with my teacher and also listenning some music.however, what i like most is to read electrical magzine or watch some english films.i can also know the lastest news about the world instently. as i am a student ,i do not have much time surffing the internet..
but i will go on line in the weekend if i have finished my homework .my parents agree with me.in fact they always support me on everything i like i believe that people equate succein life with the ability of operating computer.it is generally accepted that no college or university can educate its students by the time they graduate,so may be computer skills will enchance our job opportunities or promotion..
however ,some believe that it is a terrible invention,because their kids are clinging to the net games and even crime as a result of the bad effect. what is more,some girls are cheated by people through internet.
some parents do not allow their kids to surf ,they think that it will have a negative effect on kids. i agree with the old saying "no work and no play make jack a dull boy". so we have to face the internet fairly. every thing has two sides,we should learn to use it correctly. first ,we should learn the common sense of safety.before we do every thing,we should think twice.it will help us always.then,we should try to protect ourselves.i think we had better not chat with some strangers.the most important thing is that we must not leave out our addreand some information about us and our familly.
in all,we should know to master it in a right way.this is also the reason why everyone can not be bill gates.
every friend! have you heard of white dream ?perhaps , you think hope isgreen, youth is red, and dream is only natural gold!but , i think medicalworkers' dream is white.
you're likely to say : white stands for blank,white symbolizes poverty.but, i will tell you white also signifies creation! white also is the embodimentof vast and pureness.
people usually speak highly of medical workers as angels in white. becausein their mind , medical workers are upright , kind, selfless and friendly.
despite the rumour and social prejudice, nantingger gave up her richphysical life, firmly, committing herself to nusing career. in this way, shedestronmasted the glory of white dream.
benqiuen strode over country boundaries, devoting himself to medical careerwithout hestion.
extremly beautiful scenery often exists in dangerous and highmountains.extremly grand music is always dismal. extremly noble life frequentlylies in heroic sacrifice.in a sense, isn't medical workers' job great? if onecan sacrifice his life for human,isn't he or she happy? as it going: if thereisn't inveteracy,there isn't prosperous leaves and sweet-smelling flowers, ifthere isn't headstream and flowing water, thereisn't rapids and waterfall, ifthere isn't medical workers' hard work, there isn't good and healthy life ofpeople.
My favorite fruit My favorite is lemon fruit. Lemon is not very round, with a sharp point, is yellow. The Latin species name Citrus limon lemon. Lemon juice can enhance memory, improve osteoporosis, a beauty effects, and so on. Lemon juice or beverage preparation of important raw materials and manufacturing drugs, often Trickle-down lemon juice to remove Westerners eating again. Used mainly for juice, fruits sometimes used as cooking, but the basic need for Xiansi because too sour. Fruits containing 5% citric acid were. Containing 501.6 mg per litre lemon juice, vitamin C and citric acid were 49.88 grams. This is my favorite fruit.
The night before Christmas, people are bringing a sleeping quietly under the moonlight, the earth, on a quiet, they are waiting, waiting for the arrival of the new year.
See, that's who, a boy. He quietly sat in the window, watching the moon, seemed to be waiting for someone, but he was waiting for whom? Now, who else would come? I was somewhat puzzled by his behavior. But he is still sitting in the window waiting for, but sometimes look back at the clock
Bell rang, which means that the upcoming new year, the boy's face appeared in a trace of a smile, suddenly, two reindeer pulling a car from the Moon Ben Lai, the car away from the boys, getting closer, boys excited : "Santa came! birth to old Laila!" he instinctively ran outside, loudly calling Santa Claus, Santa Claus with a smile, said: "My child, what gift you want?" "My lame foot, and students often do not, and I play, I am very sad. "" I know you want anything. "Santa Claus finished and walked out.
Early morning sun is so bright, the boy blinked his eyes, and found himself in the foot, and no good, he began to not believe in Santa Claus, then, the boy walking out of bed, watching the students the freedom to playing, watching watching, he smiled , laughed so naive, bright, he had never had such a laugh. He gradually realized that Santa Claus gave him the best in the world is a gift - Happy
Ladies and Gentlmen :
My name is .It’s my great honous to speak here.I am the speaker of number 9. Today my topic is " Let’s take action to protect the environment . As we all know, The environment is getting worse and worse, In some places we can’t see fish swimming in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink. A number of people have been killed by air pollution and water pollution .Worst of all ,people aren’t aware of the danger of the pollution. So I think we should do something to protect the environment. .But what can we do? How to protect our environmemt?
In my opinion, we can go to school on foot or by bike. We can use shopping baskets instead of using the plastic bags when we go shopping. We can use both sides of the paper when we write . And remember don’t throw the rubbish everywhere. We can pick up the garbage when we see it. Remember to turn off the faucet. When we leave the room don’t forget to turn off the light.
If everyone takes action to protect our environment ,our shool and world will be much more beautiful in the future. DO You know? Today is world earth day.So Lets start to clean up now. Lets protect natures beauty.Lets make our future bright.Thank you for your attention.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Good morning! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.
Man’s life is a process of growing up, actually I’m standing here is a growth. If a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then I grow up along with these choices. Once I hope I can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know I come here, now I wonder what the future holds for me.
When I come to this school, I told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. Following I will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job.
Once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” I will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these process I will combine learning with doing. If I can achieve this “future”, I think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.
How to say future? Maybe it’s a nice wish. Lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.
I want to start by doing an experiment. I'mgoing to play three videos of a rainy day. But I've replaced the audio of oneof the videos, and instead of the sound of rain, I've added the sound of baconfrying. So I want you think carefully which one the clip with the bacon is.
我想用一个实验来开始我的演讲。我将给你们播放三段雨天的视频。不过我把其中一个视频里的 音频换成了别的,它不再是下雨的声音,变成了煎培根的声音。我想让你们认真听,找出哪个视频里是煎培根声。
Raise your hand if you've ever been asked the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
如果你们曾被问过这个问题,请举手“你长大之后想干什么?”
Now if you had to guess, how old would you say you were when you were first asked this question? You can just hold up fingers. Three. Five. Three. Five. Five. OK. Now, raise your hand if the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" has ever caused you any anxiety.
现在大家回想一下,你们第一次被问这个问题是多大?你们可以举手指头来示意一下。三岁,五岁,三岁,五岁,五岁,好的。接下来,如果刚刚说的这个问题,“你长大之后想干什么?”曾经让你感到焦虑,请举手。
Any anxiety at all.
哪怕一点点焦虑。
I'm someone who's never been able to answer the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
我永远无法回答这个问题,“你长大之后想干什么?”
See, the problem wasn't that I didn't have any interests -- it's that I had too many. In high school, I liked English and math and art and I built websites and I played guitar in a punk band called Frustrated Telephone Operator. Maybe you've heard of us.
并不是说我没有兴趣爱好,而是我的兴趣爱好太多。高中的时候,我喜欢英语、数学和艺术,建过网站在一个叫“失意电话话务员”的朋克乐队当吉他手。也许你们还听说过我们乐队呢。
This continued after high school, and at a certain point, I began to notice this pattern in myself where I would become interested in an area and I would dive in, become all-consumed, and I'd get to be pretty good at whatever it was, and then I would hit this point where I'd start to get bored. And usually I would try and persist anyway, because I had already devoted so much time and energy and sometimes money into this field. But eventually this sense of boredom, this feeling of, like, yeah, I got this, this isn't challenging anymore -- it would get to be too much. And I would have to let it go.
高中毕业后我也依旧兴趣广泛,某一天,我发现自己有一个行为模式,我会对某一个领域感兴趣,然后一头扎进去,认真钻研,变得越来越擅长,但到了某一个阶段,我就会开始觉得无聊。通常我会继续坚持下去,因为我已经投入了很多时间和精力,有时候还有金钱。但是最终这种无聊的感觉,就像在说,哦,这事我已经会了,已经没有任何挑战了,再继续也不会有多大成就了。我必须要放手。
But then I would become interested in something else, something totally unrelated, and I would dive into that, and become all-consumed, and I'd be like, "Yes! I found my thing," and then I would hit this point again where I'd start to get bored. And eventually, I would let it go. But then I would discover something new and totally different, and I would dive into that.
但之后我可能又会对另一些事感兴趣,跟之前完全不同的领域,我又会一头扎进去,认真钻研,然后说,“太棒了!这就是我的菜!”之后我又会达到那个阶段,开始觉得无聊。最后,我又会放弃。 之后我又会发现新的兴趣,不同的领域 然后一头扎进去。
This pattern caused me a lot of anxiety, for two reasons. The first was that I wasn't sure how I was going to turn any of this into a career. I thought that I would eventually have to pick one thing, deny all of my other passions, and just resign myself to being bored. The other reason it caused me so much anxiety was a little bit more personal. I worried that there was something wrong with this, and something wrong with me for being unable to stick with anything. I worried that I was afraid of commitment, or that I was scattered, or that I was self-sabotaging, afraid of my own success.
这种模式让我非常焦虑,原因有两点。 一是我不确定 如何才能将这些兴趣变成我的职业。 我觉得自己最终会从 (这些兴趣)里面挑一个,而对其他爱好忍痛割爱, 做好将来一定会无聊的心理准备。 让我非常焦虑的第二个原因, 跟我自身有关。 我担心自己的这种行为模式是错的, 自己这么朝三暮四,是不是错了。我是不是害怕做出承诺, 或者自由散漫,破罐子破摔, 惧怕成功。
If you can relate to my story and to these feelings, I'd like you to ask yourself a question that I wish I had asked myself back then. Ask yourself where you learned to assign the meaning of wrong or abnormal to doing many things. I'll tell you where you learned it: you learned it from the culture.
如果你能理解我的故事和我的感受,请你们问自己一个问题,这个问题我早就该问自己的。就是,你是从哪里学到该如何判断我们的所作所为是错误的或者不正常的。 我来告诉你答案: 是从我们的文化中学到的。
We are first asked the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" when we're about five years old. And the truth is that no one really cares what you say when you're that age.
我们第一次被问到“你长大之后想干什么?”是在差不多五岁的时候。其实像你那么大的时候没有人会真的关心你说了什么。
It's considered an innocuous question, posed to little kids to elicit cute replies, like, "I want to be an astronaut," or "I want to be a ballerina," or "I want to be a pirate." Insert Halloween costume here.
这仅仅是一个无伤大雅的问题,为的是让小朋友做出可爱的回应,比如,“我想当宇航员”,或者“我想当芭蕾舞演员”,或者“我想当海盗”。此处应加万圣节服装的特效。
But this question gets asked of us again and again as we get older in various forms -- for instance, high school students might get asked what major they're going to pick in college. And at some point, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" goes from being the cute exercise it once was to the thing that keeps us up at night. Why?
然而这个问题,在我们成长的过程中会不断被问到形式多种多样,比如,高中生会被问到,你们在大学准备选什么专业。突然有一天, “你长大之后想干什么?” 从原本一种秀可爱的方式 变成了让我们寝食难安的难题。为什么会这样?
See, while this question inspires kids to dream about what they could be, it does not inspire them to dream about all that they could be. In fact, it does just the opposite, because when someone asks you what you want to be, you can't reply with 20 different things, though well-meaning adults will likely chuckle and be like, "Oh, how cute, but you can't be a violin maker and a psychologist. You have to choose."
尽管这个问题鼓励小朋友想象自己将来要做什么,但它并未给小朋友充分想象的自由。恰恰相反,它限制了小朋友想象的自由,因为有人问你长大后想做什么,你不可能回答20种不同的职业,尽管有些善良的大人会笑呵呵地说,“哦,你太可爱了,但是你不能同时成为小提琴制作家和心理学家啊。你必须选一个。”
This is Dr. Bob Childs -- and he's a luthier and psychotherapist. And this is Amy Ng, a magazine editor turned illustrator, entrepreneur, teacher and creative director. But most kids don't hear about people like this. All they hear is that they're going to have to choose. But it's more than that. The notion of the narrowly focused life is highly romanticized in our culture. It's this idea of destiny or the one true calling, the idea that we each have one great thing we are meant to do during our time on this earth, and you need to figure out what that thing isand devote your life to it.
这位是鲍勃·柴尔兹博士,他是一名弦乐器工匠和心理医生。这位是艾米·恩,之前是杂志编辑,后来成为插画作家,企业家教师和创意总监。但大部分孩子都没听说过他们。他们听到的只是要他们进行选择和取舍。 事情远不止这么简单。 一生都心无旁骛的这一观念, 在我们的文化中被过分浪漫化了。 这种命运论或者说 “命中注定的职业”的概念, 意思是我们每个人都有一份 命中注定的伟大事业,我们需要找到它, 并为之奋斗一生。
But what if you're someone who isn't wired this way? What if there are a lot of different subjects that you're curious about, and many different things you want to do? Well, there is no room for someone like you in this framework. And so you might feel alone. You might feel like you don't have a purpose. And you might feel like there's something wrong with you. There's nothing wrong with you. What you are is a multipotentialite.
但如果你不是这样的人呢?如果你对很多事都有好奇心,想去尝试各种各样的职业呢?那么在现有体系中,你很难有容身之处。你也许会感到孤独。你也许会觉得自己没有目标。你也许会觉得自己是不是有问题。你没有问题。你是一名“多重潜力者”。
A multipotentialite is someone with many interests and creative pursuits. It's a mouthful to say. It might help if you break it up into three parts: multi, potential, and ite. You can also use one of the other terms that connote the same idea, such as polymath, the Renaissance person. Actually, during the Renaissance period, it was considered the ideal to be well-versed in multiple disciplines. Barbara Sher refers to us as "scanners." Use whichever term you like, or invent your own. I have to say I find it sort of fitting that as a community, we cannot agree on a single identity.
“多重潜力者”拥有多种兴趣并且追求创新。听起来很费解吧。如果把它拆成三部分可能比较好理解:多重的,有潜力的,人。你也可以用其他词来表述类似的意思,比如“博学者”,或者“文艺复兴者”。实际上,在文艺复兴时代,精通多个学科是非常被推崇的。芭芭拉·谢尔称我们为“扫描仪”。你可以选择一个自己喜欢的词,或者创造一个新的。我感觉自己找到了组织,因为我们无法接受只有一种身份。
It's easy to see your multipotentiality as a limitation or an affliction that you need to overcome. But what I've learned through speaking with people and writing about these ideas on my website, is that there are some tremendous strengths to being this way. Here are three multipotentialite super powers.
人们很容易把多重潜力视为一种局限或者痛苦,需要克服。但我通过与人们交流,以及把这些观点发到我的网站上,我发现多重潜力者有很多优点。多重潜力者拥有三种“超能力”。
One: idea synthesis. That is, combining two or more fields and creating something new at the intersection.Sha Hwang and Rachel Binx drew from their shared interests in cartography, data visualization, travel, mathematics and design, when they founded Meshu. Meshu is a company that creates custom geographically-inspired jewelry. Sha and Rachel came up with this unique idea not despite, but because of their eclectic mix of skills and experiences. Innovation happens at the intersections. That's where the new ideas come from. And multipotentialites, with all of their backgrounds, are able to access a lot of these points of intersection.
第一是产生创意。就是说,结合两个或两个以上领域从结合处寻求创新。黄沙和瑞秋·宾克斯找到了共同的兴趣爱好,像制图,数据可视化,旅行,数学和设计,之后他们创办了Meshu。 Meshu是一家定制珠宝公司,专门制作具有地域特色的珠宝。黄沙和瑞秋之所以能产生这个独特的创意,正是因为他俩博学多才,经历丰富。创新来源于交叉处。新创意(大都)来源于此。而多重潜力者,拥有丰富的(知识)背景,能够在各领域交叉处找到突破点。
The second multipotentialite superpower is rapid learning. When multipotentialites become interested in something, we go hard. We observe everything we can get our hands on. We're also used to being beginners, because we've been beginners so many times in the past, and this means that we're less afraid of trying new things and stepping out of our comfort zones. What's more, many skills are transferable across disciplines, and we bring everything we've learned to every new area we pursue, so we're rarely starting from scratch.
多重潜力者的第二种超能力是快速学习。当多重潜力者对某件事产生兴趣时, 我们会全身心投入。 我们仔细观察,勤于实践。 我们已经习惯于当初学者,因为我们过去曾当过无数次初学者, 我们不怕尝试新事物, 勇于走出舒适区。 除此以外,很多能力在各个学科都是通用的, 我们将之前所学用于新领域, 而不用从零开始。
Nora Dunn is a full-time traveler and freelance writer. As a child concert pianist, she honed an incredible ability to develop muscle memory. Now, she's the fastest typist she knows.
诺拉·邓恩是一位全职旅行家和自由作家。作为一名儿童钢琴演奏家,她磨练出了非凡的能力来发展肌肉记忆。因此,她是她所有认识的人中打字最快的。
Before becoming a writer, Nora was a financial planner. She had to learn the finer mechanics of sales when she was starting her practice, and this skill now helps her write compelling pitches to editors. It is rarely a waste of time to pursue something you're drawn to, even if you end up quitting. You might apply that knowledge in a different field entirely, in a way that you couldn't have anticipated.
在当作家之前,诺拉是一名理财师。在初入这行的时候,她不得不学习一些高明的销售技巧,如今这项技能被她用来给编辑写精彩的推荐语。追求你感兴趣的东西并不是浪费时间,即使最后你并没有坚持到底。也许将来你会把这些知识用在一个完全不同的领域,用一种你完全预料不到的方式。
The third multipotentialite superpower is adaptability; that is, the ability to morph into whatever you need to be in a given situation. Abe Cajudo is sometimes a video director, sometimes a web designer, sometimes a Kickstarter consultant, sometimes a teacher, and sometimes, apparently, James Bond.
第三种“超能力”是适应性。 也就是说,如果有需要, 你能变成任何角色, 以适应不同的情况。 艾比·卡胡多有时候是视频导演, 有时候是网站设计师, 有时候是众筹顾问, 有时候是老师, 有时候,很明显,是詹姆斯·邦德。
He's valuable because he does good work. He's even more valuable because he can take on various roles,depending on his clients' needs. Fast Company magazine identified adaptability as the single most important skill to develop in order to thrive in the 21st century. The economic world is changing so quickly and unpredictably that it is the individuals and organizations that can pivot in order to meet the needs of the market that are really going to thrive.
他拥有出色的工作能力。更重要的是他可以随时切换自己的角色,来满足客户的需要。《快公司》杂志认为,要想在21世纪取得成功,适应性是最重要的一项技能。经济界的变化如此迅速且无法预测,那些能够根据市场需要进行调整的个人和公司才有可能取得成功。
Idea synthesis, rapid learning and adaptability: three skills that multipotentialites are very adept at, and three skills that they might lose if pressured to narrow their focus. As a society, we have a vested interest in encouraging multipotentialites to be themselves. We have a lot of complex, multidimensional problems in the world right now, and we need creative, out-of-the-box thinkers to tackle them.
产生创意,快速学习和适应性是多重潜力者非常擅长的三种能力,如果强迫他们缩小自己的关注范围,这三种能力也许就会丧失。作为一个社会,鼓励多重潜力者保持本色对我们有利。我们如今面临许多复杂问题,涉及许多方面, 我们需要有创意的、能破除思维定式的 思想者来解决这些问题。
Now, let's say that you are, in your heart, a specialist. You came out of the womb knowing you wanted to be a pediatric neurosurgeon. Don't worry -- there's nothing wrong with you, either.
我们假设,内心深处,你是一名专家。你从打娘胎里出来就知道你想当一名儿童神经外科医生。别担心,即使这样你也挺正常的。
In fact, some of the best teams are comprised of a specialist and multipotentialite paired together. The specialist can dive in deep and implement ideas, while the multipotentialite brings a breadth of knowledge to the project. It's a beautiful partnership. But we should all be designing lives and careers that are aligned with how we're wired. And sadly, multipotentialites are largely being encouraged simply to be more like their specialist peers.
事实上,一些顶尖团队就是由专家和多重潜力者搭配组成。专家可以深入研究,实践想法,而多重潜力者可以为项目带来更广泛的知识支持。这是一种美妙的合作。但是我们都应该根据自己的天赋来规划与之相适应的人生和职业。不幸的是,多重潜力者往往被要求成为(刚刚提到的)团队中的那个专家。
So with that said, if there is one thing you take away from this talk, I hope that it is this: embrace your inner wiring, whatever that may be. If you're a specialist at heart, then by all means, specialize. That is where you'll do your best work. But to the multipotentialites in the room, including those of you who may have just realized in the last 12 minutes that you are one --
所以,如果你从今天的演讲中学到了一件事的话,我希望会是: 接受你内心的真实想法。 如果你是专家型的人, 那就用尽一切办法,成为专家。你会干得非常不错。 但对于在座的多重潜力者们, 包括那些在过去的12分钟里 刚刚意识到自己是多重潜力者的人。
To you I say: embrace your many passions. Follow your curiosity down those rabbit holes. Explore your intersections. Embracing our inner wiring leads to a happier, more authentic life. And perhaps more importantly -- multipotentialites, the world needs us.Thank you.
我要对你们说:接受你的众多爱好。保持你的好奇心。探索(不同领域的)交叉地带。让真实的自我引领我们去过更快乐、更真实的人生。也许更重要的是,(我们是)多重潜力者,这个世界需要我们。谢谢大家。

Dear teachers and students:
hello everyone!
The title of my speech is "happy to see life, smile to welcome life".
In the journey of life, we often encounter setbacks and failures and fall into all kinds of unexpected difficulties. At this time, please don't feel inferior and don't easily say: I can't do it. We should treat life with a positive and optimistic attitude, have the courage to cheer ourselves up and say to ourselves: great.
There is such a story that the father's son's grades were mediocre and the family was "in constant war" all day. In the sound of scolding, his son's grades fell again and again, and finally became the penultimate first. My father thought, it's no use beating and scolding anyway. Just try a different attitude. So he looked at his son's test paper and said with a smile, "great, really great!" The son was surprised. The father said, "you think, a person who runs last doesn't have to worry that others will surpass him, but as long as you work hard, you will surpass others." After hearing this, his son suddenly realized that he worked very hard in his future study. After several exams, his son's grades rose to the top. From this story to see our study, we should be inspired: the exam is not ideal, depressed, we might as well say "great!" Because the exam points out our weakness in study and tells us the direction of our efforts.
It's better to find problems now than to stumble and wake up in the middle school entrance examination. Failure put an end to yesterday, a new life begins here, and success takes off from here. Let's say "great" to ourselves in the face of setbacks. For us growing up, ups and downs are nutrition, and setbacks are the best university in life. Let's say "great" to ourselves in the face of difficulties. In overcoming difficulties, we continue to mature.
As long as we are worthy of ourselves and our parents, let us treat our study and life with an optimistic attitude, constantly strive to forge ahead and write a brilliant movement of life!
Thank you!
Liao our class teacher with a long black hair, thick eyebrows, and a pairof his eyes big eyes.
Liao teacher taught us the language, as well as our class teacher, so weattach great importance to the language. I remember one occasion, the teacher inclass along with a hanging water-frame, we are all curious front of the shelflooked at, the original teacher correcting homework last night, when the changeto the night, careless cold, but it does not matter teachers are like the same:" Fast lectures 呀! Do not I look at the following open the book to "" ""
Not only for our language teachers attached great importance, but alsoattach great importance to our health, I remember once in my last art classstudents are not accidentally hurt his hand cut with scissors, Liao met with theteacher to call her mother flew, but also criticized it students in the School"" "
Teacher, you're like a candle: lit their own to illuminate others; Teacher,you're like a crew: the other side of victory pulled us; teacher, you will belike the spring silkworm silk spit dedicated to the people.
When we go to school, we are taught that life is not always going well, we will meet all kinds of difficulties. Everyone hears the words, but when they meet difficulties, it is hard for them to be OK with it, they feel the life is hopeless, just as hearing is easy, while taking action is another thing. Once a famous business person said that the one who faced the failure and stood up, he or she will be successful. I absolutely believe it, we are in front of so many accidents, we need to face the setback and learn from it, every setback is a test for us, only the one who passes the test can succeed. Such as when we feel it hard to study, then give up, how can we make progress. Life teaches us lesson every minute, the adverse situation is a good chance to upgrade ourselves.
当我们上学的时候,我们就被教育生活并不总是一帆风顺,我们会遇见各种各样的困难。每个人都听过这些话,但是当遇到困难时,对于他们来说是很难接受的,觉得生活无望,就如说起来是一回事,做起来是另一回事。曾经一位出名的生意人浆果,谁面对困难,振作起来,他或她就能成功。我深信此话,我们面对很多的意外,需要面对挫折,从中学会东西,每一次的挫折就是一次考验,只有通过考验的人能成功。比如我们感到学习困难时,就放弃,怎么能进步呢。生活时时刻刻都在教会我们东西,困境是升级自身的好机会。
