Good morning, ladies and gentlemen:
Today i'm very happy to be here to share with you some of my thoughts onthe topic of globalization. and first of all, i would like to mention an eventin our recent history.
Thirty years ago, american president richard nixon made an epoch-makingvisit to china, a country still isolated at that time. premier zhou enlai saidto him, "your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world - twenty-fiveyears of no communication." ever since then, china and america have exchangedmany handshakes of various kinds. the fundamental implication of this example isthat the need and desire to communicate across differences in culture andideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations aswell.
As we can see today, environmentalists from different countries are makingjoint efforts to address the issue of global warming, economists are seekingsolutions to financial crises that rage in a particular region but nonethelesscripple the world's economy, and diplomats and politicians are getting togetherto discuss the issue of combating terrorism. peace and prosperity has become acommon goal that we are striving for all over the world. underlying this mightytrend of globalization is the echo of e. m. forster's words, "only connect!"
With the it revolution taking place, traditional boundaries of humansociety fall away. our culture, politics, society and commerce are being sloshedinto a large melting pot of humanity. in this interlinked world, there are nooutsiders, for a disturbance in one place is likely to impact other parts of theglobe. we have begun to realize that a world divided cannot endure.
China is now actively integrating into the world. our recent entry to thewto is a good example. for decades, we have taken pride in being self-reliant,but now we realize the importance of participating in and contributing to abroader economic order. from the precarious role in the world arena to ourpresent wto membership, we have come a long way.
But what does the way ahead look like? in some parts of the world peopleare demonstrating against globalization. are they justified then, in criticizingthe globalizing world? instead of narrowing the gap between the rich and thepoor, they say, globalization enables developed nations to swallow thedeveloping nations' wealth in debts and interest. globalization, they argue,should be about an earnest interest in every other nation's economic health.
We are reminded by karl marx that capital goes beyond national borders andeludes control from any other entity. this has become a reality. multinationalcorporations are seeking the lowest cost, the largest market, and the mostfavorable policy. they are often powerful lobbyists in governmentdecision-making, ruthless expansionists in the global market place and adevastating presence to local businesses.
For china, still more challenges exist. how are we going to ensure a smoothtransition from the planned economy to a market-based one? how to construct alegal system that is sound enough and broad enough to respond to the needs of adynamic society? how to maintain our cultural identity in an increasinglyhomogeneous world? and how to define greatness in our rise as a peace-lovingnation? globalization entails questions that concern us all.
Like many young people my age in china, i want to see my country getprosperous and enjoying respect in the international community. but it seems tome that mere patriotism is not just enough. it is vitally important that weyoung people do more serious thinking and broaden our mind to bigger issues.and, there might never be easy answers to those issues such as globalization,but to take them on and give them honest thinking is the first step to beprepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way. and this is alsoone of the thoughts that came to me while preparing this speech. thank you.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Tonight is a special day. I appreciate our dear teacher Miss chen. She is responsible teacher and she usually makes us feel interested in learning English. She always hope that our English have made improvement. No matter how tired she is, she never gives up on us. And she give us enough encouragement. We will remember our great teacher forever.
It gives me great pleasure to be entitled to such a precious opportunity to give a graduation speech on behalf of all the graduates of our college. First, I'd like to give our hearty thanks to you.
Meet college, open my sight, to enrich my thoughts, washing my soul, moistens my life.
Meet college, pick up a falling leaf, feel the passage of time. Mature autumn, tell me: the most precious thing in life is not the most shining, catch the youth, the most successful attitude rewards seasons.
Meet college, we make so many friends in the college. We have a valuable friendship. The more you lean you more you understand.
Today I don't know I must be happy or sad. Because happy for I'm ending the study of the north campus in GDAIB. I'm got so much of English knowledge. But I'm sad too. Because today, we'll break up together, maybe if we're has good luck at all, we'll meet again.
So, we must be get confidence at all, because tomorrow will be a pretty day!
Being graduated from college is not an end, but a beginning. We will always bear in mind the motto of our college --- Respects, diligent, and progressive.
--- which has, and will always inspire us to contribute what we have learnt to the advance of the society and the benefits of human kind.
This is a day never to be forgotten, a day to cherish as one of the highlights and important in our lives and careers.
To end my speech, let us all drink from the cup of best wishes to the further development of our mother college.
Thank you.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!
Etiquette is not only the person, the embodiment of education is also a manifestation of personal morality and social morality. Is the face of the city, is the country face.
Therefore, learning etiquette not only in strong personal qualities, outside the plastic units better able to lubricate and improve interpersonal relationships.
Has a history of 5,000 years of civilization as the "ceremonies", stressing civilization, with rituals, but also promote the national culture, an important way to demonstrate national spirit.
We are in society, identity, role is constantly changing. We hate others this moment, the next moment people often become the object of hate. These are none other than "informal," the act of.
When we, as tourists often, always in accordance with their own interest, spitting, spit chewing gum, trampled grass, scrawl graffiti on the cultural relics; when we are the people of the time, it is spitting the phenomenon of hate to write graffiti.
When we get along with classmates when the students always complain about the "informality", whether at work or life to speak through things; and our management are often too lazy to "section."
When we take the bus, always able to grab a seat for the complacent, pushed, stepped on, when people say I'm sorry from the disdain; when we were pushed or stepped on, when they do not always say sorry if the brooding and even punches thrown; the time when we are old, standing threw the car, always eager to own some people to not stand for a seat.
With the social development and progress, people's spiritual needs levels and increasing the value of self-awareness, we want to understand more, be respected. There is no doubt that the current situation, the ritual is not individual industries, individual community's needs, but all the people needed.
Train to run fast, depends on the locomotive. At home, if parents can take the lead; in schools, if teachers can take the lead; in the unit, if leaders can take the lead; in the window unit, window staff if we can take the lead ... ... by extension, to all of China to promote , universal civilization, etiquette, if the capital more than 10 million people to take the lead in this head; if everyone starts from me and from now on ... ...
No doubt, our civility to popularize the work will be easier. Then our spiritual civilization and material civilization would be like to achieve rapid development. We are 1.3 billion people, mental outlook, certainly a new look, people are living in a friendly, tolerant, caring, warm community atmosphere!
Etiquette, stressing that the "respect-based."
Want others to respect you, first of all have to respect people.
Those bad habits, map the moment fast, lost to one's personality and dignity. Do not respect even their own people, other people will respect you?
My speech is over, thank you!
Good afternoon,teachers and students!I’m very glad to be here and have a speech.Today,my title is Everyone’s Olympics.The 29th Olympic Games will be held in our country in 20__.As a great many people will visit our country,the government will build new hotels,a huge stadium,and a fine new swimming pool.
The games will be held just outside the capital and the whole area will be called “Olympic city”.
In a way,building Olympic Games is an image-creating undertaking.The first and foremost thing is to let people fall in love with the city at first sight,attracting them by its unique image.With a concept inspired by the famed Silk Road,our Torch Relay will break old idea,traveling from beginning through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-Greek,Indian and Chinese.Carrying the massage “Share the peace,Share the Olympics.”The flame will pass through Tibet,cross the yellow rivers,travel the Great Wall and visit Chinese Taiwan and the 56 Ethnic communities who make up our society.On its journey,the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.Do you know ? Everyone in the capital is preparing himself for the Olympic Games by learning English.
Because we must get most of Chinese to speak English before 20__.But as all know ,environment protection is an important problem of Beijing Olympics.
But I believe ,we can unite together to win the competition of the enviroment protection in Beijing, and present the world a big gold medal.
That is “Green Beijing,Green Olympics.”Let’s join the Olympics together.That’s all, Thank you for listening.
good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
today, my speech is about talents,in my opionion, talents are indispensable in nowadays society. as is known to all that the fight among countries is actually the fight among talents.
first, i'd like to define the word"talent" in my idea, a talent is one person who is good at or expertised in some or multiple areas. nowadays, as the world developing goes on , if one country want to rank top or do a good job in the world, the country must have many talents.
for example, china, the biggest developing country in the world, in the past 100 years, is always invaded by other countries, why ,the reason is that china at that time had not so many talents. if they had anti-intrusion leader talents in the war, needless to say,they would have beat those big powers.if they had talents in weapons manufacturing, nodody dares to provoke us.however, nowadays, it's a totally different situation, china has become powerfulin all over the world, why ? because there are many talents serving the country, the civilians become more and more literated.
more and more people go to university,more and more people come to receive further education. so what is that in return,talents in army protect our country from invasion, talents in commerce help make our economy keep in improving, talents in aerospace make the world see chinese manned spacecraft flying. talents in sports make china rank the first in the olympic games......
to sum up, talents will play a more and more impoetant role in the world, if one country intends to flourish, he must foster talents as many as they can ,that's all,thank you.
It was noon on Friday. Friday was wash day, Kerry’s least favorite day. Doing the wash was such a pain. He had to gather together all the dirty clothes. He had to turn the shirts and slacks inside out to save wear and tear on the outside of the shirts and slacks. He had to empty all the junk out of all the pockets of his clothes.
Then he had to find quarters for each load of wash—four for the washer and three for the dryer. It’d be so nice to have a weekly maid, like his downstairs neighbor. Kerry piled all his clothes into the laundry basket and went downstairs. He was relieved to hear silence as he approached the laundry room; no one was using the machines. He put laundry soap and quarters into the washer, and set it at Warm Temperature and Regular Wash. A few minutes later, it was full of soapy water. He stuffed in half of the dirty clothes. This was going to be a two-load day.
He placed the half-full basket on top of the churning washer. He shut the laundry room door and walked back upstairs. He set his electronic timer to 35 minutes. When the washer was done, he’d reload it and put the first load into the dryer. He sat down and opened the newspaper to the California section: "Truck Runs Over Crossing Guard," said the headline.
Good morning!

一、Daydreaming life
To have everything done by my robot, I sit in the garden en of my villa and watch the pink snow flowing in the sky with all kinds of delicious food circling around me. I reach out for the goodies. Ling-ling-ling! Suddenly the telephone rings. Oh, it’s only a daydream.
With the mixture of romance and imagination, the girl who likes daydreaming appears to be here. Martin Luther King had his big dream that is to liberate his Negro brothers, and I have my small daydreams. But we share something in common which is that we all desire for a bright future. With my love for delicious food, I always daydreamed of many goodies being severed to me. Although I awoke every time without having a taste at those goodies, these interesting experience have relaxed my brain, and the hope for a bright future has encouraged me to be more diligent to realize my daydreams. The necessary element romance has helped me to have more fun in my daily life and get closer to the beautiful nature. The element imagination has helped me to be more creative in my study and daily life.
But daydreams need a limit. I only allows myself to daydream at the right time and for certain times for fear that I would get too far from the real life or will be too lazy to work hard lost in those remote daydreams.
二、Daydreaming life
Maybe I will find a job that will realize my daydreams and offers me more time for daydreaming, but who knows? Another daydream will probably change my idea.
Days and days, dreams and dreams, and that are daydream. Young girls, enough imagination, and that are my daydreams.
Who is the girl that is standing there? Lovely dress, beautiful shoes, and a prince who is holding her hands, dancing at the ball. Oh! A daydream once again. Thank you for listening!

but it is indeed impressive to me to review the utmost disliked film-----"hero" which is directed by zhang yimou, in . although this film show numourous famous filmstars, but you can tell nothing more than its great sceens. what worse, the whole movie just tell a story of the failure assassinate the emperor of qin dynasty. it is hollow on the theme and mindlein the view of narrator. it is a not-uncommon phenomenon which is arising in china movie market. i think it is really a shame to invest so much money to creat a film about nothing.
as i consideration, a good film should belongs to a spiritual production which either to help us relax or improve our artific taste.thank you for your listen.

Once upon a time, there was a sad elephant. He was dirty and stinky, because he could not reach to wash his back. All the other animals didn’t play with him because he was smelly.
Elephant sat under a tree, where nobody could see him. He started to cry. His head was hanging down, crying big tears. He sat and cried for days. One day, when his tears had dried up, he went to itch his head and he felt a bump on his back. Then he noticed his nose had stretched because it had got wet with all the crying and it was now a long trunk which had hit him on his back.
He went to the river and got his trunk, put it in the water and sucked the water up. Then he sprayed his back with water.
All the other animals came over to him and said “you are so clean and smell so lovely. Do you want to play with us?”
The elephant was so happy and said “yes.”
The End.
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.
Dear teachers and classmates:
Good morning\afternoon.
I am very glad to make a speech here .At this time, I'd like to talk something about my hobbies.
Everyone has hobbies. My mother likes watching TV. My father likes chess. Many of my schoolmates like playing football. So what are my hobbies? Now let me tell you about my hobbies.
I have many hobbies, such as sports, singing, playing the computer games and reading books, but learningEnglish is my favourite.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world some day. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, I also want to go to London, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and Dongying.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after hard study, one day I can speak English very well.
If you want to be loved, you should learn to love . So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too
There is more I like to do. There is more I want to say. Maybe I can tell you more next time. That’s all, thank you!
Good afternoon, honorable judges, dear teachers & friends.
I'm Lai Senhan from the University of International Business & Economics. Do you know what date is it today? Today is the Olympic Date. I'm so glad to stand here today to share my idea about Beijing Olympic Games together with you all. The title of my speech is: what can we do for Beijing Olympic Games?
First of all, let me tell you a story that happened 2 years ago. At the end of August, 20xx, when I decided to come to Beijing for study, my friends hel* * rewell Party for me. They said: after your graduation, you should look for a job in Beijing, and then in 20xx, we shall go to visit you during the Olympic Games. I laughed and answered: OK, no problem!
Time flied and 2 years passed. Now I am a graduate. My teachers and classmates always ask me: what's your plan after your graduation? Go back home, stay in Beijing, or go to some other places? And I always answer: I will stay in Beijing. I make this decision not because of my promise to my friends 2 years ago, but because: I've fallen in love with Beijing! I'm eager to welcome the coming Olympic Games together with my fellow countrymen, and I wish I could do something for the Olympics & for the city.
As we know, Beijing
As the song goes “ My future isn’t a dream .” I love the song which brings me heart when singing it every time . I believe that all our dreams can come true if we have nerve to pursue them .When I was young my mother always asked me what I would be in the future . Sometimes I found it very hard to give a certain answer . “ I want to be a doctor .” “ I want to be a teacher .” and “ I ’d like to be a scientist !” Many of these answers are perhaps very childish . But I never think they are far away .
How time flies! Who is able to give a set to his future ? I know clearly that those high buildings are based on solid foundation . As a student , I should have a thinking aim , and study hard . My goal is to enter a good middle school for further study after primary school . I know it’s hard work , and I will come across many difficulties . But no matter what they are , I will keep working on it and never give up . My teacher says there is only one kind of people that are truly successful : those who are brave enough to put up with hardships . Even if I won’t gein the goal , I have no regets for what I have done , for I have fight for my life.
sponsibility of building the future of our country?
the cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. but the cynics are wrong. the college students i see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. we help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.
the cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. but again, the cynics are wrong. we care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.
as college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. we all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. i believe in all my fellow classmates. though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. i believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. we are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. i believe in our future.
Good morning, Everyone!
I will talk about sports. I am a lovely boy. I like many kinds of sports, such as walking, running, swimming, climbing, cycling and skipping. Sports give me a good health and bring me a lot of fun.
Now, I will tell you about my cycling sport. I often ride my bike when I am free. I like to ride my bike on a road. There are no cars and few people on the road. It is not very long. It is very good for cycling. When I ride down the slope, the bike runs very fast, and I feel like flying. It’s very good for me. Cycling gives me a lot of fun. Sports give me a strong body and bring me a lot of fun. If you want to be strong, please do sports; if you want to enjoy a happy life, please do sports, too.
Thank you!
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 and i‘ve learned about zheng says the yellow river civilization has vanished？i know that my ancestors have made miracles 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 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， Dchina 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 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 is even bigger， our challenges are great， but our will is even greater.
i am chinese. i have inherited black hair and black eyes. 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！
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. Only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us.
At last I’d like to share a famouse saying of Gandhi with all of you ,that is:If you want to change the world, then you must change yourself first.”
As you slowly open your eyes,look around,notice where the light comes into your room；listen carefully,see if there are new sounds you can recognize；feel with your body and spirit,and see if you can sense the freshness in the air.
Yes,yes,yes,it’s a new day,it’s a different day,and it’s a bright day！And most importantly,it is a new beginning for your life,a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions,take new actions,make new friends,and take your life to a totally unprecedented level！
In your mind’s eye,you can see clearly the things you want to have,the paces you intend to go,the relationships you desire to develop,and the positions you aspire to reach.
You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when everything happens as you dream.You can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic moment strikes.
law opened the bottom drawer of my sisters bureau and lifted out a tissue-wrapped package. this, he said, is not a slip. this is lingerie. he discarded the tissue and handed me the slip.
it was exquisite, silk, handmade and trimmed with a cobweb of lace. the price tag with an astronomical figure on it was still attached.
jan bought this the first time we went to new york, at least 8 or 9 years ago. she never wore it. she was saving it for a special occasion.
well, i guethis is the occasion.
he took the slip from me and put it on the bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the mortician. his hands lingered on the soft material for a moment, then he slammed the drawer shut and turned to me, dont ever save anything for a special occasion. every day you re alive is a special occasion.
i remembered those words through the funeral and the days that followed when i helped him and my niece attend to all the sad chores that follow an unexpected death. i thought about them on the plane returning to california from the midwestern town where my sisters family lives. i thought about all the things that she hadnt seen or heard or done. i thought about the things that she had done without realizing that they were special.
im still thinking about his words, and theyve changed the weeds in the garden. im spending more time with my family and friends and letime in committee meetings. whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experience to savour, not endure. im trying to recognize these moment now and cherish them.
im not saving anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special. event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, the first camellia blossom… i wear my good blazer to the market if i feel like it. my theory is if i look prosperous, i can shell out $$28. 49 for one small bag of groceries without wincing. im not saving my good perfume for special parties; clerks in hardware stores and tellers in banks have noses that function as well as my party going friends.
someday and one of these days are losing their grip on my vocabulary. if its worth seeing or hearing or doing, i want to see and hear and do it now. im not sure what my sister wouldve done had she know that she wouldnt be here for the tomorrow we all take for granted.
i think she would have called family members and a few close friends. she might have called a few former friends to apologize, and mend fences for past squabbles. i like to think she would have gone out for a chinese dinner, her favorite food. im guessing. ill never know.
its those little things left undone that would make me angry if i knew that my hours were limited. angry because i put off seeing good friends whom i was going to get in touch with someday. angry because i hadnt written certain letters that i intended to write one of these days. angry and sorry that i didnt tell my husband and daughter often enough how much i truly love them.
im trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. and every morning when i open my eyes, i tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath truly, is... a gift from god.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity to improve my oral English. Thank you

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." 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." 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." i do not mean political parties in that sense.
