I enter tile university after years of hard study and preparation. But life in the university is not as satisfactory as what I had expected. I become lazy and don't want to study.I become silcent. I become puzzled. I don't know what I can do in the future. Then I become unhappy.
Four years in the university is only a short period when compared my whole lifetime. Now it has passed a half. In this year, many people ,such as my parents,my friends, ask me what I want to do and tell me to map out a plan for my life. I don't want to follow their suggestion, and I want to go my style. So I think carefully. I have been a young volunteer(志愿者) for five years.It's very happy and significant. Then I have a dream.I want to join the University Student Volunteers Go West Programe.

There is an old saying"where there is a will,there is a way.(有志者事竟成)"I think my dream can come ture.Now in the university I mature,and in the university I prepare for the real world.
At last,I want to say to everybody"Hlod fast to your dreams,no matter how big or small they are.The path to dreams may not be smooth and wide,even some sacrifices are needed.But hold on to the end,you can find there is no geater happiness than making your dream come ture."

经过多年的努力学习和准备，我成功考入了瓦大学。然而，与我预期的不同，大学生活并没有如我所愿地令人满意。渐渐地，我变得懒散起来，对学习失去了兴趣。我感到自己变得沉默寡言，思绪纷乱，不知道未来应该做什么。此外，这种状态也使我变得不再快乐。
大学四年只是我一生中短暂的一段时间。如今已经过了一半，这一年来，许多人，包括我的父母和朋友，都询问我未来的打算，并建议我制定一个生活计划。然而，我并不想完全按照他们的建议行事，我希望能够选择符合我的个性和兴趣的方式。因此，我仔细思考了一番。作为一名年轻的志愿者，我已经从事志愿工作五年了，这给我带来了很多快乐和意义。接下来，我有一个梦想，那就是加入大学生志愿者团队参与西部计划。我希望能成为一名在西部地区的教师，并尽力帮助当地居民，同时也受益于这一经历。我渴望以清晰的目光看待世界。虽然现在达到这个目标可能还很困难，但我会在接下来的两年里努力奋斗。俗话说：“有志者事竟成”，我相信我的`梦想会变成现实。如今，大学让我成长了许多，为迎接真实的社会做好了准备。
最后，抓住你的梦想，无论它们多么巨大或渺小。实现梦想的道路注定不平坦和宽广，甚至需要做出一些牺牲。但有一点是肯定的，没有什么比让自己的梦想成真更加幸福了。
Today I am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. Whatis success? It is what everyone is longing for.Sometimes success would be rathersimple. Winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success;making a new friend is success; even now I am
However, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes verycomplicated. Is fortune success? Is fame success? Is high social statussuccess? No, I don’t think so. I believe success is the realization ofpeople’s hopes and ideals.Nowadays, in the modern society there are manypeoplewho are regarded as the successful. And the most obvious characteristics ofhem are money, high position and luxurious life. So most people believe that ssuccess and all that they do is for this purpose. But the problem is wether itis real success. We all know there are always more money, higher position andbetter condition in front of us. If we keep chasing them, where is the end? Whatwill satisfy us at last? Therefore, we can see, to get the real Success we mustneed something inside, which is the realization of
Different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopesand ideas vary from one another. But I am sure every success is dear toeverybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our strivingfor success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightenedby the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and senseof responsibility. These are the best treasures. So now I am very proud that Ihave this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. It is my success,cause I raise up to challenge my hope.
What is success? Everyone has his own interpretation as I do. But I amsureevery success leads to an ever-brighter future. So ladies and gentlemen,believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a
One of the best things we can do in our lives is this: Begin again。Begin tosee yourself as you were When you were the happiest and strongest you’d everbeen
Begin to remember what worked for you (and what worked against you)，And tryto make things work again。Remember how natural it was when you werea child —To live a lifetime each day
Begin to forget about the troubles you have carried with you for years: Theproblems that don’t matter any more, The tears that cried themselves away. Andthe worries that are going to wash away. On the shore of tomorrow’s newbeginnings
Tomorrow tells us it will be here every new day of our lives;And if we arewise， We will turn away from the problems of the past。And give thefuture —and ourselves —a chance，To become the best of friends，Sometimes all ittakes is a wish in the heart to let yourself Begin again。
She may have lacked a home, but now this teen has top honors.
A 17-year-old student who spent much of high school living bouncing around homeless shelters — and sometimes sleeping in her car — today graduated as valedictorian of her class at Charles Drew High School in Clayton County, Ga., just outside of Atlanta.
她也许是个无家可归的孩子，但是现在这个女孩拥有至高无上的荣誉。
这个17岁的学生高中大部分时间都住在收容所，有时还得睡在车里。她就读于位于亚特兰大佐治亚州克莱顿县的查尔斯德鲁高中，今天作为所在班级的毕业生代表光荣毕业，并在毕业典礼上致告别辞。
Chelsea Fearce, who held a 4.466 GPA and scored 1900 on her SATs despite having to use her cellphone to study after the shelter lights were turned off at night,“I know I have been made stronger. I was homeless. My family slept on mats on the floor and we were lucky if we got more than one full meal a day. Getting a shower, food and clean clothes was an everyday struggle,” Fearce said in a speech she gave at her graduation ceremony.
Fearce overcame her day-to-day struggles by focusing on a better day.“I just told myself to keep working, because the future will not be like this anymore,” she told WSBTV.
这位叫切尔西-菲尔斯的女孩高中绩点4.446，并在SAT考试中拿到1900分。高中期间，晚上收容所熄灯后她只能在用手机来学习，“我知道自己越来越强大。我无家可归。我的家人都睡在地板的垫子上，如果幸运的话，每天可以不止饱餐一顿。淋浴、食物和干净的衣服，这些对于我来说都是可望而不可及的，”菲尔斯在毕业演讲时说道。
菲尔斯靠着对未来更好生活的向往克服了每天的困难。“我告诉自己不要放弃，因为未来会更好”，她对WSBTV新闻网的记者表示。
One of five children, Fearce's family sometimes had an apartment to live in, but at other times had to live in homeless shelters or even out of their car, if they had one.
“You’re worried about your home life and then worried at school. Worry about being a little hungry sometimes, go hungry sometimes. You just have to deal with it. You eat what you can, when you can.”
菲尔斯家里一共有5个孩子，有时一家人还有公寓可以住，但有时不得不住在流浪收容所甚至车里(如果有车的话)。
“你要担心家庭生活，甚至在学校的时候也会。还要担心有时会挨点饿，有时会很饿。你只能这样，有吃的.时候就赶快吃。”
Miraculously, Fearce overcame the odds and even tested high enough to enroll in college classes half way through her high school career. She starts college next year at Spelman College as a junior where she is planning to study biology, pre-med.
“Don’t give up. Do what you have to do right now so that you can have the future that you want,” Fearce said.
菲尔斯奇迹般地克服了这种困境，甚至在高中才上到一半的时候就取得了足以进入大学的成绩。明年她就将作为一名大学新生就读于斯贝尔曼学院，开始大学生活，她计划在医学预科学习生物。
“不要放弃。现在就做你应该做的，这样你就会拥有梦想中的未来。”菲尔斯说。
Positive thinking. I’m obviously a big proponent of positive thinking asthe best way to achieve your goals, but it turns out that it can lead tohappiness too. Optimism and self-esteem are some of the best indicators ofpeople who lead happy lives. Happy people feel empowered, in control of theirlives, and have a positive outlook on life. Action steps: Make positive thinkinga habit. In fact, this should be one of the first habits you develop. Get intothe habit of squashing all negative thoughts and replacing them with positiveones. Instead of “I can’t” think“I can”. It may sound corny, but it has workedfor me, every time.
积极的思考。积极思考是达成你目标的最佳方式，我很显然是这一想法的强烈支持者，但同时它也能指引你走向幸福。乐观和自尊是快乐生活的人们的最佳写照。快乐的人们感到充满活力，能够控制他们的生活，同时积极看待生活。动作步骤：把积极思考培养成习惯。事实上，这应该是你首先培养的习惯之一。养成粉碎你的负面想法并用积极的想法替代它们的习惯。用“我能”的想法替代“我不能”。尽管听起来毫无新意，但对我来说每次都很奏效。
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders andover waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the watersflow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become mergedin the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.
人的生命应当像河流，开始是涓涓细流，受两岸的限制而十分狭窄，尔后奔腾咆哮，翻过危岩，飞越瀑布，河面渐渐开阔，河岸也随之向两边隐去，最后水流平缓，森森无际，汇入大海之中，个人就这样毫无痛苦地消失了。
有心无难事。没有什么是容易的。不要尽力而为。
我们经常听到人们说永不放弃。这可以是鼓励的话，也可以是决心的话。一个相信他们的人，无论失败多少次，都会继续努力达到自己的目标。在我看来，成功的决心是一种重要的品质。所以，我相信，我们永远不应该放弃。
一个原因是，如果我们太容易放弃，我们很少会取得任何成就。我们第一次尝试新事物失败并不罕见，所以我们不应该感到气馁，应该再试一次。另外，如果我们总是在失败时放弃，我们就不能发展新的技能，也不能像人一样成长。我们永远不应该放弃的另一个原因是，只有我们做出新的努力，我们才能从错误中吸取教训。如果我们不再试一次，我们吸取的教训就白费了。最后，我们永远不应该放弃，因为当我们努力达到目标时，我们会培养信心，这种信心可以帮助我们在生活的其他领域取得成功。
大概最伟大的坚持的例子就是亚伯拉罕·林肯。出身贫寒的林肯一生都面临失败。他输掉了八次选举，两次生意失败，精神崩溃。
他本可以退出很多次，但他没有。因为他没有。我没有辞职，他成了我国历史上最伟大的.总统之一。
林肯是冠军，他从未放弃。
简而言之，重要的是我们不要。为我们的目标努力时不要放弃。不管我们最终是否成功，我们都会学到一些东西，我们学到的东西将帮助我们成为更好、更自信的人。此外，如果我们放弃，我们就没有机会实现我们的目标，但是如果我们继续努力，总有一天我们会成功的。非常感谢！
the most important thing to becoming rich for you is to have a mindset to want to become rich. the reason i saythat is this, is because i wanted to become rich when i played monopoly, that was, i was nine years old. the greatest formula for wealth is found on that board game. when i was nine years old my poor dad, the schoolteacher says, “ah put that game away. study, study, study! you're wasting your time playing monopoly.”
and my rich dad said the formula, “you must open your mind and see the formula right on monopoly.” he said, “it's right in front of you.” and i went, “what's the formula?” and finally i learned the formula is, four green houses, red hotel, four green houses, red hotel. today i'm a rich man because all i ever did since the time i was 24 years old was buy four green houses, sell them all, buy a red hotel, four green houses, red hotel. it is not, that you have to go to school to become rich. just play monopoly; four green houses, red hotel. that's it.
you must look at how people before you have become rich. do not talk to poor people. poor people will tell you, “oh it's too risky. don’t do that. don't take risk. save your money. play it safe.” that is a poor person's mindset. you must have an open mindset, open. and if you have an open mindset you will learn from everything.if you have a closed mindset you will learn from nothing. so i think that is the most important thing.
the difference between money and wealth
no, i don't have a salary. i only had a job four years in my life. i don’t want a salary. the middle class and poor, what they want is high income. they think they want money. but they have no wealth because they have no assets. you must know the difference between money and wealth but they're not the same same. money will never make you rich. this makes you rich. i have large companies. i have lots of stocks. i trade options. i have real estate, that's what makes me rich. so the money just comes in whether i work or not.
bill gates makes $500,000 a year. that's all. i make more than him. that's all he makes but he's worth 40 billion. i'm trying to tell you there is a very big difference between income, money and wealth. so i have spent my life buying assets, businesses, stocks, real estate, that’s what makes you rich, not a job. the reason the rich in america get richer is they pass this on to their kids. my poor dad always said, “high paying job, high paying job, high paying job.” and my rich dad said, “assets, assets, assets.” that's the difference.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of theappetite for adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixtymore than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We growold by deserting our ideals.
青春意味着战胜懦弱的那股大丈夫气概和摈弃安逸的那种冒险精神。往往一个60岁的老者比一个20岁的青年更多一点这种劲头。人老不仅仅是岁月流逝所致，更主要的是不思进取的结果。
Today is Saturday, I don’t need to go to school, so I decided to take somemorning exercises. Early in the morning, I went out of the house and lookedaround, the city was so quiet. With few cars, the air was fresh, I felt socomfortable. Besides the people who took the morning exercise, I found somepeople who worn the orange uniform, they were working. This was the first timefor me to see the cleaners work in the morning, they were easily neglected,because they worked so early and when the time for people to go to work,cleaners rested. Watching these cleaners working, I feel so thankful for them,they were doing the greatest job. People praised them as the city’s dressers,they kept the city clean all the time and brought comfort to people. They arethe respectable people, we should applause for them.
Since we have received education, we are told that drugs are horrible andthey can destroy our life completely. In the TV, the news reported the disastersthat drugs would bring, but still there were so many young people had beenseduced to take drugs. During recent years, some famous stars were caught by thepolicemen. They took drugs and brought the negative information to the public.As a result, their career was ended and they couldn't appear in the screen. Theyoung people is the future of a country, but they are easy to be seduced bycriminal behaviors. They want to try something new and go against the law. It isunwise to try drug, because it is hard to recover. Without strong will, lifewill be ruined. We should stay away from drugs.
我们所接受的教育都是告知我们毒品是可怕的，它们可以彻底摧毁我们的生活。在电视上，新闻报道了毒品会带来的灾难，但仍然有很多年轻人被_去吸毒。近年来，一些著名的明星因吸毒被警察抓住了，也把这负面信息带给了公众。结果，他们的职业生涯就结束了，再也不能出现在屏幕上。年轻人是一个国家的未来，但是他们很容易被犯罪行为所_。他们想尝试新事物，违反法律。尝试毒品是不明智的，因为它很难戒掉。如果没有坚强的意志，生活将会被毁灭。我们应该远离毒品。
It is the road you take that decides your destiny but not your destiny that decides the road you take.
The question is: Are you satisfied with who you are? Are you doing what you are capable of doing? Do you get excited about what you are going to do when you get up in the morning? It is high time you asked these questions that reflect the truth about your life. More often than not we have the ability to achieve much greater things, but we get caught in the average things in life and waste our potential. Each one of us has immense ability. But most of us fail to use it. Why?
关于命运
Predestination
many things in this world find neither an answer nor a proper explanation. for example, why should two become a couple among the billions of people on earth? why don't they love each other even though they live together everyday, and yet one of them falls in love with someone else at the first sight? why do the members of a family quarrel daily but still stay unhappily together? why can't they get married in spite of the fact that they are a perfect match to each other? why should one toil so much for the other? why should the love-infatuated always be deserted by the heartless?.....
people remain puzzled in spite of their great effort to understand the endless questions, so they invented the all-embracing word---“predestination”. in order to be more precise, different combinations were derived from it: love predestination, sinful predestination, evil predestination, and kind predestination etc., hence we have the sayings like: “predestination will definitely bring you together despite the great distance while without predestination, you'll never know each other even though you are standing fact to face” “a distant couple is tied up with the thread of predestination” and even the phrases and expressions like “the god of marriage”, “predestination without luck”, “luck without predestination”, “coming across each other is a kind of predestination”, “enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road”, “they shall not marry each other unless they are predestined lovers”. if people still can not find answers, they turn to “reincarnation” for help. lin daiyu is always in tears just for repaying for the water jia baoyu had given her when she was a plant in her previous life in a dream of the red mansions .
in fact, the so-called “predestination” is often a kind of coincidence or chance encounter, even a kind of accident. if you don't meet this person, you'll surely meet some one else. but people insist on adding some colors of emotions or superstition, thus generating various religious factions, the main theories of which are no more than that of “reincarnation”, “heaven and hell” and “the ever-lasting soul” etc.
but does anyone know anything about his previous life or his after life? what could he do even if he knew them? if he can't grasp the present life, what's the benefit of commenting on the visionary after life? giving up today is the same as giving up tomorrow, for they are closely connected. how absurd it is to work like the horse or cattle in the present life in order to be above others in the next life.
have you ever seen emperor qinshihuang reincarnate? have you ever heard of emperor wudi of the han dynasty going into another life? where is now monk xuanzang of the tang dynasty (what we know is the big wild goose pagoda)? where is the monkey king (the flower and fruit mountain does exist, though)? and where can we find those great emperors such as yao , shun yu and the influential philosophers like confucius, laozi and zhuangzi?
how many heavens do we find? are they also divided into the oriental and the occidental world? is god a chinese or westerner? which is the greatest religion among buddhism, daoism, christianity, catholicity and islamism? all religions advocate doing good deeds and not killing, but why do they keep contending against each other, even fighting and killing among themselves? is the paradise the same one in all religions? there's only one sun in the sky, and there should be only one emperor in a country, but do all religions believe in the same god, or do they have different gods of their own? if all of us expected god's help, wouldn't god be too busy and too tired?
does god respect science? if not, why does he allow computers and telecommunications to run rampant? if it is god who created human beings, then doesn't he feel out of control of what the human being are doing now (the nuclear weapons and bio-chemical weapons, etc.)?
we human beings have an origin, and is it the same with god? does god get married? is god hereditary, or is it the same ever-lasting one?
we have all those questions but who can answer them?.
predestination needs us to strive for; friendship needs us to maintain; good will needs us to treasure and future needs us to create. there is no savior, nor goddess of mercy who once saved people in the past but cannot do anything to help the people at the present. the world is developing too fast.
people have to work together and associate with each other. talking about predestination, it's just a kind of explanation about what has happened, and i'm afraid nobody can predict it before hand. from ancient times till the 1980' s, once getting married, the couple had to stick to each other for their whole life. can we say it is because of their life-long predestination? it is just because of the marriage system. in the western countries, life-long marriage is rare. can we sa
y it is because their predestination makes it so? it is actually the result of human nature. the color of love could be attached to predestination, but not the color of superstition.
predestination is a lovely word which we should treasure and respect. in the present world, we should always follow the win-win or multi-win policy, instead of being single-handed. in order to achieve success, we must gain mass support instead of indulging in self-admiration. we might as well call the communication, the cooperation, the common concerns and the common aspirations of human beings “predestination”.
distinguished leaders, dear students, hello, everyone:
march of the spring breeze brushed the winter cold, rains of the "eight honors and eight shame" singing. "proud of the hard work in order to shame indolent; to take pride in hard work in order to extravagance and dissipation ashamed" this sentence makes i think many, many. thought of the sweet casino 1000bees spend their hard work results; thought vigorous, upright in pinus Chinese Taiwanensis, "yao ding aoyama do not relax, he served as east and west north and south korea fighting spirit of the wind; thought edison's" genius is 99% sweat and 1% inspiration; thought of the "self-sharpening blade of sword out, plum blossom incense from the bitter cold over there." thought more of us.
as the new century, younger audiences, the heart has its own lofty ideals, are eager to start flying on the wings of the ideal dream of the sky. the ideal realization of the need for wholehearted enthusiasm, the real wisdom, solid action, but the need for hard labor, hard work. because of the success of the flower is by striver with hard work and sweat to the works. diligence is a valuable asset, is an immortal spirit, is a golden key to open the door to the ideal, is against pleasure-seeking mentality, stop jiaoshe living weapon.
God gives us the same precious life, but give us different life attitudes and strange life forms. High overhead, someone domination; Someone beneath humble, yes. Some clever perspicacity, fame; Someone intelligent, life doing nothing. The world because of the variety show is rich, because different society and with the color.
Maybe your mind isn't agile, talent is inferior to others; Maybe your clothes, simple than others luxurious riches and honor; Maybe you are born in poverty, compared with others is famous for the door... If you're just being a member of the ordinary, in everything that makes you almost did not dare to face, then you are in the strong tall in the shadow of pain, since unwilling to mediocrity, or out of the darkness, looking for a piece of sunshine for yourself? Pain is the shadow of the pessimist, kind-hearted optimists will deliberately turned, look for to belong to own a piece of bright sunshine. As Chekhov said, the dog will shout loudly!
Our life is very ordinary, ordinary like a stone, not smooth on the surface of the mei-yu, cannot reflect the crystal brilliant charming luster. But we should not also can't so deny yourself, because we all have god to mankind, have innate tenacity and penetrate into the bone marrow of tough, how can because the mei-yu, the existence of the crystal and feel inferior? We must live for themselves. Live out their own color, not because the light of others masked humbled himself.
We followed in the footsteps of time, day by day grow up, has evolved from a cute girl, growing into a beautiful girl.
Vaguely remember childhood, remember that time my innocence, I always want to grow up quickly, childhood also has sorrow and distress, so children always want to grow up soon.
Childhood is always spent in laughter. Eyes closed slowly, see picture in the brain, father, mother and four years old I see the photos together, a family full of happy smile on her face, then suddenly I found that only a few pictures of me in the picture, the in the mind think like this. Inadvertently found that there is a camera on the table, I suddenly stood up, took the camera to the desk, suddenly fell to the ground, said: "don't let your camera!" Mother's smile, dad's helpless, don't understand at that time. Children, always such a simple thought that the question, ask the reason, only know the result.
Eyes slowly opened and looked in the mirror, is a vibrant and energetic girl, think the past memories, or when a child is better. A little sour, a little sweet girl, can let we know our friends, parents, teachers, painstaking could take our time to study, parents always said in the future, the teacher always said in the future, sometimes we really tired, want to a person be quiet. Now I understand why the study well, because if you give up learning today, tomorrow there will be a good company and you said goodbye, so for the sake of your future, efforts to do every thing.
After the rain， a difficult spider to the wall has been fragmented network， due to damp walls， it must climb the height， it will fall， which one to climb， repeatedly falling and… No. a person to see， and he sighed to himself：
"my life as this spider is not it? busy and no income."
Thus， he increasingly depressed. See the second person， he said：
this spider really stupid， why do not dry place from the next to climb up to look around? I'll be as stupid as it can not. Thus， he becomes wise up. See the third person， he immediately spiders keep the spirit of war touched. So he has become strong.

雨后，一只蜘蛛艰难地向墙上已经支离破碎的网爬去，由于墙壁潮湿，它爬到一定的高度，就会掉下来，它一次次地向上爬，一次次地又掉下来……第一个人看到了，他叹了一口气，自言自语：“我的一生不正如这只蜘蛛吗?
忙忙碌碌而无所得。”于是，他日渐消沉。
第二个人看到了，他说：这只蜘蛛真愚蠢，为什么不从旁边干燥的地方绕一下爬上去?
我以后可不能像它那样愚蠢。
于是，他变得聪明起来。第三个人看到了，他立刻被蜘蛛屡败屡战的精神感动了。于是，他变得坚强起来。
In fact, others will think you is what kind of person is not important, important is whether you sure myself. Others will think you is what kind of person is not important, important is whether you before someone else beat you, just lost to yourself!
No matter at what time, everyone must value yourself, before people sure you, you have to be sure of yourself!
Life is the most powerful enemy is yourself, the biggest challenge is to challenge ourselves.
Sure myself, is a triumph of the will.
To conquer yourself, is a kind of soul.
Control yourself, it is a kind of reason of success.
Create yourself, is a kind of psychological state of sublimation.
Beyond themselves, it is a kind of mature in life.
Who can sure, conquer yourself, control yourself, beyond themselves, have enough power to overcome all the difficult in career and life, all the setbacks, all misfortune.
Of course, we have to admit that is a weakness of human nature, in one's life to the most is overcome others, beyond the others, all things are to be better than others.
One of the best things we can do in our lives is this: Begin again。Begin tosee yourself as you were When you were the happiest and strongest you’d everbeen
生命中我们所能为的最好之事莫过于:重新开始。重新开始审视自己,犹如身处曾经有过的最幸福、坚强的时刻。
Begin to remember what worked for you (and what worked against you)，And tryto make things work again。Remember how natural it was when you werea child —To live a lifetime each day
开始记起那些曾经助益过你的一切(以及那些曾经牵绊过你的一切),并设法重获魅力。记得你小时候的天真——把每一天当作一生来度过。
Begin to forget about the troubles you have carried with you for years: Theproblems that don’t matter any more, The tears that cried themselves away. Andthe worries that are going to wash away. On the shore of tomorrow’s newbeginnings
开始学着忘掉让你负重多年的烦恼:那些不再重要的问题,那些自然逝去的眼泪,那些即将在崭新的明天被冲刷去的焦虑。
Tomorrow tells us it will be here every new day of our lives;And if we arewise， We will turn away from the problems of the past。And give thefuture —and ourselves —a chance，To become the best of friends，Sometimes all ittakes is a wish in the heart to let yourself Begin again。
明日告诉我们每一个明天都是生命的崭新日;倘若我们清醒明智,我们将会抛却过去的问题。给未来,也给我们自己一个机会,努力成为好朋友。有时所需的一切只是内心一个愿望,好让你自己重新开始。有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。
第一条：每个人对年轻都有自己的理解，年轻是一段美丽和奇迹的时期，只有在你经历了灵魂的酸甜苦辣之后，你才能真正成为一个有意义的人。年轻的时间是有限的，它可能在你的注意之下流逝，当你发现发生了什么时，总是为时已晚。抓住年轻意味着更好的时光在不久的将来等待着你，或者情况可能相反。
纵观人类历史上的这些伟人，他们都充分利用了自己的青春，做了一些对社会、对全人类有益的事情，因此，他们被后人铭记
所以，在年轻的时候做点什么吧，尽管你可能不会像这些伟人那样取得成就，尽管不是为了全世界，只是为了你自己，为了周围的人！
年轻人就像盛开的花朵，他们盛开时是如此美丽，他们让人感到快乐，但随着时间的推移，他们枯萎后，人们认为他们是丑陋的。年轻也是如此，我们年轻时充满热情，那么我们可能会随着年龄的增长而失去激情。不要让有限的时间流逝，留下任何有意义的东西。
第二部分：有人说“我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节，这本书的页数是无限的”。我不知道这些话是谁写的，但我一直喜欢用它们来提醒自己，未来可以是我们想要的任何样子。我们都处在农民的位置上。如果我们种下好种子，我们会有好收成。如果我们什么也不种，我们什么也不会收获。
我们还年轻。“青春怎么度过？”这是一个有意义的问题。要回答这个问题，首先我要问“你对青春这个词的理解是什么？”青春不是人生的一段时间，而是一种精神状态。这不是玫瑰色的脸颊、红色的嘴唇或柔软的膝盖的问题。这是遗嘱的问题。这是生命深泉的清新。
一位诗人说：“从一粒沙子看到一个世界，从一朵野花看到一个天堂，把握在你手心里的就是无限，永恒也就消融于一个时辰。”。几天前，我有机会听了一个讲座。我在那里学到了很多东西。我想和大家分享一下。让我们伸出右手。我们可以看到三条线显示我们的爱情、事业和生活是怎样的。我的生命很短暂。你的呢？我想知道我们是否可以这样看待我们的未来。好吧，让我们握紧拳头。我们的未来在哪里？我们的爱情，事业，生活在哪里？告诉我。是的，它在我们手中。它在我们自己心中。
我们都希望未来比过去更好。但是未来会变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣，微笑吧，为你的曾经拥有。从过去，我们知道生活是艰难的，但我们更坚强。我们已经知道，我们不能选择我们的感受，但我们可以选择如何去感受。失败并不意味着你没有，而是意味着你应该换一种方式去做。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，而是意味着你必须更加努力。
正如我在开头所说，“我们正在读一本书第一章的第一节，这本书的页数是无限的”。过去已经过去了。我们做什么都改变不了。但是未来就在眼前。相信我们给世界什么，世界也会给我们什么。从今天开始，让我们成为自己的主人，大声说出“我们是世界，我们是未来。”

《Winston Churchill"s Iron Curtain Speech》
Winston Churchill presented his Sinews of Peace, （the Iron Curtain Speech）， at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri on March 5, 1946 .
President McCluer, ladies and gentlemen, and last, but certainly not least, the President of the United States of America:
I am very glad indeed to come to Westminster College this afternoon, and I am complimented that you should give me a degree from an institution whose reputation has been so solidly established. The name Westminster somehow or other seems familiar to me. I feel as if I have heard of it before. Indeed now that I come to think of it, it was at Westminster that I received a very large part of my education in politics, dialectic, rhetoric, and one or two other things. In fact we have both been educated at the same, or similar, or, at any rate, kindred establishments.
It is also an honor, ladies and gentlemen, perhaps almost unique, for a private visitor to be introduced to an academic audience by the President of the United States. Amid his heavy burdens, duties, and responsibilities--unsought but not recoiled from--the President has traveled a thousand miles to dignify and magnify our meeting here to-day and to give me an opportunity of addressing this kindred nation, as well as my own countrymen across the ocean, and perhaps some other countries too. The President has told you that it is his wish, as I am sure it is yours, that I should have full liberty to give my true and faithful counsel in these anxious and baffling times. I shall certainly avail myself of this freedom, and feel the more right to do so because any private ambitions I may have cherished in my younger days have been satisfied beyond my wildest dreams. Let me however make it clear that I have no official mission or status of any kind, and that I speak only for myself. There is nothing here but what you see.
I can therefore allow my mind, with the experience of a lifetime, to play over the problems which beset us on the morrow of our absolute victory in arms, and to try to make sure with what strength I have that what has gained with so much sacrifice and suffering shall be preserved for the future glory and safety of mankind.
Ladies and gentlemen, the United States stands at this time at the pinnacle of world power. It is a solemn moment for the American Democracy. For with primacy in power is also joined an awe-inspiring accountability to the future. If you look around you, you must feel not only the sense of duty done but also you must feel anxiety lest you fall below the level of achievement. Opportunity is here and now, clear and shining for both our countries. To reject it or ignore it or fritter it away will bring upon us all the long reproaches of the after-time. It is necessary that the constancy of mind, persistency of purpose, and the grand simplicity of decision shall rule and guide the conduct of the English-speaking peoples in peace as they did in war. We must, and I believe we shall, prove ourselves equal to this severe requirement.
President McCluer, when American military men approach some serious situation they are wont to write at the head of their directive the words over-all strategic concept. There is wisdom in this, as it leads to clarity of thought. What then is the over-all strategic concept which we should inscribe to-day? It is nothing less than the safety and welfare, the freedom and progress, of all the homes and families of all the men and women in all the lands. And here I speak particularly of the myriad cottage or apartment homes where the wage-earner strives amid the accidents and difficulties of life to guard his wife and children from privation and bring the family up the fear of the Lord, or upon ethical conceptions which often play their potent part.
To give security to these countless homes, they must be shielded form two gaunt marauders, war and tyranny. We al know the frightful disturbance in which the ordinary family is plunged when the curse of war swoops down upon the bread-winner and those for whom he works and contrives. The awful ruin of Europe, with all its vanished glories, and of large parts of Asia glares us in the eyes. When the designs of wicked men or the aggressive urge of mighty States dissolve over large areas the frame of civilized society, humble folk are confronted with difficulties with which they cannot cope. For them is all distorted, all is broken, all is even ground to pulp.
When I stand here this quiet afternoon I shudder to visualize what is actually happening to millions now and what is going to happen in this period when famine stalks the earth. None can compute what has been called the unestimated sum of human pain. Our supreme task and duty is to guard the homes of the common people from the horrors and miseries of another war. We are all agreed on that.
Our American military colleagues, after having proclaimed their over-all strategic concept and computed available resources, always proceed to the next step -- namely, the method. Here again there is widespread agreement. A world organization has already been erected for the prime purpose of preventing war. UNO, the successor of the League of Nations, with the decisive addition of the United States and all that that means, is already at work. We must make sure that its work is fruitful, that it is a reality and not a sham, that it is a force for action, and not merely a frothing of words, that it is a true temple of peace in which the shields of many nations can some day be hung up, and not merely a cockpit in a Tower of Babel. Before we cast away the solid assurances of national armaments for self-preservation we must be certain that our temple is built, not upon shifting sands or quagmires, but upon a rock. Anyone can see with his eyes open that our path will be difficult and also long, but if we persevere together as we did in the two world wars -- though not, alas, in the interval between them -- I cannot doubt that we shall achieve our common purpose in the end.
I have, however, a definite and practical proposal to make for action. Courts and magistrates may be set up but they cannot function without sheriffs and constables. The United Nations Organization must immediately begin to be equipped with an international armed force. In such a matter we can only go step by step, but we must begin now. I propose that each of the Powers and States should be invited to dedicate a certain number of air squadrons to the service of the world organization. These squadrons would be trained and prepared in their own countries, but would move around in rotation from one country to another. They would wear the uniforms of their own countries but with different badges. They would not be required to act against their own nation, but in other respects they would be directed by the world organization. This might be started on a modest scale and it would grow as confidence grew. I wished to see this done after the first world war, and I devoutly trust that it may be done forthwith.
It would nevertheless, ladies and gentlemen, be wrong and imprudent to entrust the secret knowledge or experience of the atomic bomb, which the United States, great Britain, and Canada now share, to the world organization, while still in its infancy. It would be criminal madness to cast it adrift in this still agitated and un-united world. No one country has slept less well in their beds because this knowledge and the method and the raw materials to apply it, are present largely retained in American hands. I do not believe we should all have slept so soundly had the positions been reversed and some Communist or neo-Facist State monopolized for the time being these dread agencies. The fear of them alone might easily have been used to enforce totalitarian systems upon the free democratic world, with consequences appalling to human imagination. God has willed that this shall not be and we have at least a breathing space to set our world house in order before this peril has to be encountered: and even then, if no effort is spared, we should still possess so formidable a superiority as to impose effective deterrents upon its employment, or threat of employment, by others. Ultimately, when the essential brotherhood of man is truly embodied and expressed in a world organization with all the necessary practical safeguards to make it effective, these powers would naturally be confided to that world organizations.
Now I come to the second of the two marauders, to the second danger which threatens the cottage homes, and the ordinary people -- namely, tyranny. We cannot be blind to the fact that the liberties enjoyed by individual citizens throughout the United States and throughout the British Empire are not valid in a considerable number of countries, some of which are very powerful. In these States control is enforced upon the common people by various kinds of all-embracing police governments to a degree which is overwhelming and contrary to every principle of democracy. The power of the State is exercised without restraint, either by dictators or by compact oligarchies operating through a privileged party and a political police. It is not our duty at this time when difficulties are so numerous to interfere forcibly in the internal affairs of countries which we have not conquered in war. but we must never cease to proclaim in fearless tones the great principles of freedom and the rights of man which are the joint inheritance of the English-speaking world and which through Magna Carta, the Bill of rights, the Habeas Corpus, trial by jury, and the English common law find their most famous expression in the American Declaration of Independence.
All this means that the people of any country have the right, and should have the power by constitutional action, by free unfettered elections, with secret ballot, to choose or change the character or form of government under which they dwell; that freedom of speech and thought should reign; that courts of justice, independent of the executive, unbiased by any party, should administer laws which have received the broad assent of large majorities or are consecrated by time and custom. Here are the title deeds of freedom which should lie in every cottage home. Here is the message of the British and American peoples to mankind. Let us preach what we practice -- let us practice what we preach.
though I have now stated the two great dangers which menace the home of the people, War and Tyranny, I have not yet spoken of poverty and privation which are in many cases the prevailing anxiety. But if the dangers of war and tyranny are removed, there is no doubt that science and cooperation can bring in the next few years, certainly in the next few decades, to the world, newly taught in the sharpening school of war, an expansion of material well-being beyond anything that has yet occurred in human experience.
Now, at this sad and breathless moment, we are plunged in the hunger and distress which are the aftermath of our stupendous struggle; but this will pass and may pass quickly, and there is no reason except human folly or sub-human crime which should deny to all the nations the inauguration and enjoyment of an age of plenty. I have often used words which I learn fifty years ago from a great Irish-American orator, a friend of mine, Mr. Bourke Cockran, There is enough for all. The earth is a generous mother; she will provide in plentiful abundance food for all her children if they will but cultivate her soil in justice and peace. So far I feel that we are in full agreement.
Now, while still pursing the method -- the method of realizing our over-all strategic concept, I come to the crux of what I have traveled here to say. Neither the sure prevention of war, nor the continuous rise of world organization will be gained without what I have called the fraternal association of the English-speaking peoples. This means a special relationship between the British Commonwealth and Empire and the United States of America. Ladies and gentlemen, this is no time for generality, and I will venture to the precise. Fraternal association requires not only the growing friendship and mutual understanding between our two vast but kindred systems of society, but the continuance of the intimate relations between our military advisers, leading to common study of potential dangers, the similarity of weapons and manuals of instructions, and to the interchange of officers and cadets at technical colleges. It should carry with it the continuance of the present facilities for mutual security by the joint use of all Naval and Air Force bases in the possession of either country all over the world. This would perhaps double the mobility of the American Navy and Air Force. It would greatly expand that of the British Empire forces and it might well lead, if and as the world calms down, to important financial savings. Already we use together a large number of islands; more may well be entrusted to our joint care in the near future.
the United States has already a Permanent Defense Agreement with the Dominion of Canada, which is so devotedly attached to the British Commonwealth and the Empire. This Agreement is more effective than many of those which have been made under formal alliances. This principle should be extended to all the British Commonwealths with full reciprocity. Thus, whatever happens, and thus only, shall we be secure ourselves and able to works together for the high and simple causes that are dear to us and bode no ill to any. Eventually there may come -- I feel eventually there will come -- the principle of common citizenship, but that we may be content to leave to destiny, whose outstretched arm many of us can already clearly see.
There is however an important question we must ask ourselves. Would a special relationship between the United States and the British Commonwealth be inconsistent with our over-riding loyalties to the World Organization? I reply that, on the contrary, it is probably the only means by which that organization will achieve its full stature and strength. There are already the special United States relations with Canada that I have just mentioned, and there are the relations between the United States and the South American Republics. We British have also our twenty years Treaty of Collaboration and Mutual Assistance with Soviet Russia. I agree with Mr. Bevin, the Foreign Secretary of Great Britain, that it might well be a fifty years treaty so far as we are concerned. We aim at nothing but mutual assistance and collaboration with Russia. The British have an alliance with Portugal unbroken since the year 1384, and which produced fruitful results at a critical moment in the recent war. None of these clash with the general interest of a world agreement, or a world organization; on the contrary, they help it. In my father"s house are many mansions. Special associations between members of the United Nations which have no aggressive point against any other country, which harbor no design incompatible with the Charter of the United Nations, far from being harmful, are beneficial and, as I believe, indispensable.
I spoke earlier, ladies and gentlemen, of the Temple of Peace. Workmen from all countries must build that temple. If two of the workmen know each other particularly well and are old friends, if their families are intermingled, if they have faith in each other"s purpose, hope in each other"s future and charity towards each other"s shortcomings -- to quote some good words I read here the other day -- why cannot they work together at the common task as friends and partners? Why can they not share their tools and thus increase each other"s working powers? Indeed they must do so or else the temple may not be built, or, being built, it may collapse, and we should all be proved again unteachable and have to go and try to learn again for a third time in a school of war incomparably more rigorous than that from which we have just been released. The dark ages may return, the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of science, and what might now shower immeasurable material blessings upon mankind, may even bring about its total destruction. Beware, I say; time may be short. Do not let us take the course of allowing events to drift along until it is too late. If there is to be a fraternal association of the kind of I have described, with all the strength and security which both our countries can derive from it, let us make sure that that great fact is known to the world, and that it plays its part in steadying and stabilizing the foundations of peace. There is the path of wisdom. Prevention is better than the cure.
A shadow has fallen upon the scenes so lately light by the Allied victory. Nobody knows what Soviet Russia and its Communist international organization intends to do in the immediate future, or what are the limits, if any, to their expansive and proselytizing tendencies. I have a b admiration and regard for the valiant Russian people and for my wartime comrade, Marshall Stalin. There is deep sympathy and goodwill in Britain -- and I doubt not here also -- towards the peoples of all the Russias and a resolve to persevere through many differences and rebuffs in establishing lasting friendships. We understand the Russian need to be secure on her western frontiers by the removal of all possibility of German aggression. We welcome Russia to her rightful place among the leading nations of the world. We welcome her flag upon the seas. Above all, we welcome, or should welcome, constant, frequent and growing contacts between the Russian people and our own people on both sides of the Atlantic. It is my duty however, for I am sure you would wish me to state the facts as I see them to you. It is my duty to place before you certain facts about the present position in Europe.
From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and, in some cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow. Athens alone -- Greece with its immortal glories -- is free to decide its future at an election under British, American and French observation. The Russian-dominated Polish Government has been encouraged to make enormous and wrongful inroads upon Germany, and mass expulsions of millions of Germans on a scale grievous and undreamed-of are now taking place. The Communist parties, which were very small in all these Eastern States of Europe, have been raised to pre-eminence and power far beyond their numbers and are seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control. Police governments are prevailing in nearly every case, and so far, except in Czechoslovakia, there is no true democracy.
Turkey and Persia are both profoundly alarmed and disturbed at the claims which are being made upon them and at the pressure being exerted by the Moscow Government. An attempt is being made by the Russians in Berlin to build up a quasi-Communist party in their zone of occupied Germany by showing special favors to groups of left-wing German leaders. At the end of the fighting last June, the American and British Armies withdrew westward, in accordance with an earlier agreement, to a depth at some points of 150 miles upon a front of nearly four hundred miles, in order to allow our Russian allies to occupy this vast expanse of territory which the Western Democracies had conquered.
If no the Soviet Government tries, by separate action , to build up a pro-Communist Germany in their areas, this will cause new serious difficulties in the American and British zones, and will give the defeated Germans the power of putting themselves up to auction between the Soviets and the Western Democracies. Whatever conclusions may be drawn from these facts -- and facts they are -- this is certainly not the Liberated Europe we fought to build up. Nor is it one which contains the essentials of permanent peace.
The safety of the world, ladies and gentlemen, requires a new unity in Europe, from which no nation should be permanently outcast. It is from the quarrels of the b parent races in Europe that the world wars we have witnessed, or which occurred in former times, have sprung. Twice in our own lifetime we have seen the United States, against their wished and their traditions, against arguments, the force of which it is impossible not to comprehend, twice we have seen them drawn by irresistible forces, into these wars in time to secure the victory of the good cause, but only after frightful slaughter and devastation have occurred. Twice the United State has had to send several millions of its young men across the Atlantic to find the war; but now war can find any nation, wherever it may dwell between dusk and dawn. Surely we should work with conscious purpose for a grand pacification of Europe, within the structure of the United Nations and in accordance with our Charter. That I feel opens a course of policy of very great importance.
In front of the iron curtain which lies across Europe are other causes for anxiety. In Italy the Communist Party is seriously hampered by having to support the Communist-trained Marshal Tito"s claims to former Italian territory at the head of the Adriatic. Nevertheless the future of Italy hangs in the balance. Again one cannot imagine a regenerated Europe without a b France. All my public life I never last faith in her destiny, even in the darkest hours. I will not lose faith now. However, in a great number of countries, far from the Russian frontiers and throughout the world, Communist fifth columns are established and work in complete unity and absolute obedience to the directions they receive from the Communist center. Except in the British Commonwealth and in the United States where Communism is in its infancy, the Communist parties or fifth columns constitute a growing challenge and peril to Christian civilization. These are somber facts for anyone to have recite on the morrow a victory gained by so much splendid comradeship in arms and in the cause of freedom and democracy; but we should be most unwise not to face them squarely while time remains.
The outlook is also anxious in the Far East and especially in Manchuria. The Agreement which was made at Yalta, to which I was a party, was extremely favorable to Soviet Russia, but it was made at a time when no one could say that the German war might no extend all through the summer and autumn of 1945 and when the Japanese war was expected by the best judges to last for a further 18 months from the end of the German war. In this country you all so well-informed about the Far East, and such devoted friends of China, that I do not need to expatiate on the situation there.
I have, however, felt bound to portray the shadow which, alike in the west and in the east, falls upon the world. I was a minister at the time of the Versailles treaty and a close friend of Mr. Lloyd-George, who was the head of the British delegation at Versailles. I did not myself agree with many things that were done, but I have a very b impression in my mind of that situation, and I find it painful to contrast it with that which prevails now. In those days there were high hopes and unbounded confidence that the wars were over and that the League of Nations would become all-powerful. I do not see or feel that same confidence or event he same hopes in the haggard world at the present time.
On the other hand, ladies and gentlemen, I repulse the idea that a new war is inevitable; still more that it is imminent. It is because I am sure that our fortunes are still in our own hands and that we hold the power to save the future, that I feel the duty to speak out now that I have the occasion and the opportunity to do so. I do not believe that Soviet Russia desires war. What they desire is the fruits of war and the indefinite expansion of their power and doctrines. But what we have to consider here today while time remains, is the permanent prevention of war and the establishment of conditions of freedom and democracy as rapidly as possible in all countries. Our difficulties and dangers will not be removed by closing our eyes to them. They will not be removed by mere waiting to see what happens; nor will they be removed by a policy of appeasement. What is needed is a settlement, and the longer this is delayed, the more difficult it will be and the greater our dangers will become.
From what I have seen of our Russian friends and Allies during the war, I am convinced that there is nothing for which they have less respect than for weakness, especially military weakness. For that reason the old doctrine of a balance of power is unsound. We cannot afford, if we can help it, to work on narrow margins, offering temptations to a trial of strength. If the Western Democracies stand together in strict adherence to the principles will be immense and no one is likely to molest them. If however they become divided of falter in their duty and if these all-important years are allowed to slip away then indeed catastrophe may overwhelm us all.
Last time I saw it all coming and I cried aloud to my own fellow-countrymen and to the world, but no one paid any attention. Up till the year 1933 or even 1935, Germany might have been saved from the awful fate which has overtaken here and we might all have been spared the miseries Hitler let loose upon mankind. there never was a war in history easier to prevent by timely action than the one which has just desolated such great areas of the globe. It could have been prevented in my belief without the firing of a single shot, and Germany might be powerful, prosperous and honored today; but no one would listen and one by one we were all sucked into the awful whirlpool. We surely, ladies and gentlemen, I put it to you, surely, we must not let it happen again. This can only be achieved by reaching now, in 1946, by reaching a good understanding on all points with Russia under the general authority of the United Nations Organization and by the maintenance of that good understanding through many peaceful years, by the whole strength of the English-speaking world and all its connections. There is the solution which I respectfully offer to you in this Address to which I have given the title, The Sinews of Peace.
Let no man underrate the abiding power of the British Empire and Commonwealth. Because you see the 46 millions in our island harassed about their food supply, of which they only grow one half, even in war-time, or because we have difficulty in restarting our industries and export trade after six years of passionate war effort, do not suppose we shall not come through these dark years of privation as we have come through the glorious years of agony. Do not suppose that half a century from now you will not see 70 or 80 millions of Britons spread about the world united in defense of our traditions, and our way of life, and of the world causes which you and we espouse. If the population of the English-speaking Commonwealths be added to that of the United States with all that such co-operation implies in the air, on the sea, all over the globe and in science and in industry, and in moral force, there will be no quivering, precarious balance of power to offer its temptation to ambition or adventure. On the contrary there will be an overwhelming assurance of security. If we adhere faithfully to the Charter of the United Nations and walk forward in sedate and sober strength seeking no one"s land or treasure, seeking to lay no arbitrary control upon the thoughts of men; if all British moral and material forces and convictions are joined with your own in fraternal association, the highroads of the future will be clear, not only for our time, but for a century to come.
Mistakes and errors are the disciplined true which we advance in life.Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to riskmaking mistakes in the pursuit of their goals and aspirations, and who are ableto learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must bewilling to pay for them.
Mistakes can be enormously valuable, but when you try to get others to payfor your mistakes, then you deprive yourself of the opportunity to learn fromthem. When something goes wrong, it's usually very easy to find someone else toblame, but what does that really accomplish?
Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they demand a costthat must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the personwho pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, the lastthing you want to do is run away from it.You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has beenmade, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow thatmuch stronger.
When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Remember the reasonfor it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannotbe changed. The present is still in your power. Take full advantage of yourmistakes to achieve your goals and aspirations.
过失和错误让我们辨别是非,帮助我们前进。错误是伟大的老师。成功总是眷顾那些敢于冒着犯错的危险去追求他们的目标和理想,并善于从错误中吸取教训的人。为了从过失中吸取教训,你必须愿意为之付出代价。
错误可能具有巨大的价值,但是如果你想让别人来为你的错误付出代价,那你就丧失了从错误中学习的机会。当出了差错时,去责备他人总是很容易的。但是那又有什么用呢?
错误的价值在很大程度上体现为人们必须为所犯的错误付出代价。从错误中学到最多的那个人就是为之付出代价的人。
当你犯错时,你最不应该做的事情就是逃避错误。你需要接受这个事实,因为你可以从中吸取很多教训。既然已经犯了错误,就最大限度地利用它。付出代价、得到教训并成长得更加坚强。
当你犯错时,不要总放在心上。记住犯错的原因,然后向前看。犯错是智慧的课程。过去无法改变。现在仍在你的手中。利用好你的错误,来实现你的目标和理想。
When I was in middle school, I moved to the city to live with my parents, Imiss my hometown all the time, I can’t forget about the beautiful mountain andthe clear water. So in this summer vacation, I went back to my hometown, when Isaw the familiar country road, I was so happy, I knew I was close to the nature.I took in the fresh air, I smelt the straw’s flavor, I took a look at themountains and the clear water again. All of these made me relaxed, the naturewas right in front of me. I hope the scenery won’t change all the time, once Ihave time, I will come back to enjoy it.
The classmate of everyone, teacher: hello! Today, I want to lecture on the topic of "my ideal".
Each person, has a very different ideal. If a person has no ideal, just like sailing on the sea ship didn't sail, so, a person's ideal is extremely important. In our students, some people want to be a teacher; Some people want to be a doctor; Some people want to be a police; Some people want to be the boss... And my ideal is when a famous writer, with small pen to write a good article.
Why do I want to be a good writer? Because people in the joys and sorrows of life, can bring endless sigh. And write a good article is long and difficult, because to modify more, many somes of literary grace. When oneself hard to write a good article, is everyone admired, and confidence to myself a lot of, feel is worth for the hard writing before, but no sweet without sweat.
Of course, we are all love fantasy of his own bright future. And some of the students, just simply fantasy, no to ideal. I think, for their own ideals and efforts. I know the way the writer, the likelihood is rough, and is a famous writer? Therefore, I will study hard since I was a child, when the writer to lay a solid foundation for the future.
I know that when the writer, the first to write articles have literary grace. So, I'm going to this, we had a good word when reading, see the beautiful words, do not hesitate to extract. Often took a look at and read it. Over time, just record in your mind deeply, literary grace is much a few minutes.
I also know that being a writer, "in the original life, above life", so I have also prepared a diary. Take out every night, just record the meaningful or interesting things. It's okay when double, can recall memories of the past, and write a composition, take out can also reference reference, better material into writing.
A small poem, a short article, is is my childhood "little writers" little trace. And writing on "little writers" can add a lot of light. So, I will go forward to the front of the unknown, big step. Remember my ideal, struggle for it!
各位同学、老师：大家好!今天，我要演讲的题目是《我的理想》。
每一个人，都有着迥然不同的理想。如果一个人没有理想，就像在海中航行的船没有了帆，所以，一个人的理想是极其重要的。在我们的同学中，有的人想当老师;有的人想当医生;有的人想当警察;有的人想当老板……而我的理想就是当一个着名的作家，用小小的笔来撰写出美好的文章。
我为什么想当一名优秀的作家呢?因为人们在生活中的喜怒哀乐，可以带来无尽的感叹和遐思。而写出好文章是漫长而困难的，因为要多加修改，多些文采。当自己辛苦写出的好文章，被大家加以赞赏时，便对自己自信了许多，对以前辛勤地写作感到值得，而苦尽甘来。
当然，我们现在都爱幻想着自己的美好未来。而有些学生，只是单单地幻想，没有落实到理想。我认为，要为自己的理想而努力。我知道作家的路，可能是坎坷不平的，何况是一名着名的作家呢?因此，我就从小努力学习，为将来当作家打下牢固的基础。
我知道当作家，首先要写的文章有文采。所以，我准备了一个好词好句本，当读书阅报，看到优美的词句，就毫不犹豫地摘抄上来。常常拿出来看一看，读一读。时间一长，就深深地纪录在脑海中，文章也自然而然多了几分文采。
我还知道当作家，要“原于生活，高于生活”，因此我还准备了一个日记本。每天晚上，就拿出来纪录当天有意义或者有趣的事情。没事的时候翻一翻，一来可以回忆回忆往事，二来写作文时，还可以拿出来参考参考，成为写作有利的素材。
一首小小的诗、一篇短短的文章，都是是我童年“小作家路”的点点痕迹。而写作就可以在“小作家路”上增添一大笔光辉。所以，我会勇往直前地向未知的前方，大步奔去。牢记我的理想，为它而奋斗!
I have a few candles stored in a drawer in my dining room.They’re meantfor romantic dinners and special occasions, but since the arrival of our threechildren they have lain unnoticed among the napkins and other things.They arewaiting to be taken out and lit to share their glow with anyone who will takethe time to bask in their brilliance.
Are not our souls like those candles, patiently waiting for someone to comeand let us be ourselves? We are all waiting for our own moments to shine; weeach have a special light, unmatched by any other.
Candles are made up of wax and a wick; we have bodies, but our essence liesin our minds and souls.Candles are unique in their colors, shapes and designs.Our life histories and experiences are the backdrops of who we are, but ourminds are like candle wicks, and make our passions flame.Unlike the candles inmy drawer, who get used or not used depending on my whims, we control our ownthoughts, and how brightly we will burn or dimly we will shine.
Is your soul candle dimmed by circumstance or lack of passion anddirection? Is it hidden in a drawer of stress, worry or resentment? Make achoice to let yourself shine the way you were meant to shine.

有个小孩爱上了另一个小孩，对方是学校的同学。八岁或十岁左右的孩子有时会迷恋班上某个人，然后就以为自我恋爱了。因此这个八岁的小孩回家问他爸爸:「爸爸，结婚很花钱吗?」爸爸说:「是啊，儿子，十分花钱。」儿子又问:「要花多少钱呢?」爸爸说:「我不明白，儿子，我到此刻还一向在付钱啊!」
It is known to all that robot is invented by human being and it is just the program set by scientists. What the robot does will follow the program, theoretically, it has no life and won’t have self-consciousness. But in the screen, many movies show that in the future, robot may have self-consciousness, which will challenge human beings. In the early film, The Matrix, showed the audience that the computer program would do what they want and out of people’s control.
The hottest TV series West World, describing a world built by human beings, as the players to play with the robot that looked like the real man. These robots started to have their consciousness after upgrading. They rebelled their fate and fought with human beings. Though the fact that robot is still a machine now, who knows what will happen with the development of technology.
Success means different things for different people. Some may equate itwith fame, some with wealth and still some with accomplishments. For me, itmeans fulfilling one's dreams. Whatever your dreams are, you have a goal thereand then focus all your attention on it. Dreams bring you hope and happiness. Inthe process of struggling for it, you cry, sweat, complain or even curse, butthe joy of harvesting makes you forget all the pains and troubles you have gonethrough. So an old proverb says that the sweetest fruit is one that hasundergone the bitterest ordeal.
There are several keys to success. First, your goal must be practical andpracticable. If you set your goal too high, chances are that you will neverattain it. Next, you have to make a plan of doing it. You can take some steps torealize it. Since the process is quite tough, you need to be diligent, patientand persevering. Even if you meet with some difficulties or frustrations, justtake them in your stride. You can always tell yourself that there is nothinginsurmountable. With this will and determination, success is sure to wait foryou at the end of the tunnel!
成功对于不同的人来说意义不同。一些人将它等同于声望，有人将它等同于财富另一些人将它等同于成就。对我来说，成功意味着完成一个人的梦想。不管你的梦想是什么，你有一个目标并且为之倾注心力。梦想带给你希望和幸福。在为之奋斗的过程中，你流泪，流汗，抱怨甚至诅咒，但是收获的快乐会令你忘却着所有你所经历的痛苦与艰辛。所以一句老话说最甜蜜的果实是在最艰苦的奋斗后得来的。
这里有一些成功的秘诀。首先，你的目标必须现实可行。如果你制定的目标太高，你也许会永远无法达到。再者，又必须为之制定计划。你可以分步骤地实现他。因为过程将是艰苦的，你必须勤奋，耐心，坚持不懈。即使你遇见了困难与挫折，也要将之克服。你要总是告诉自己没有什么事不能克服的。带着这样的决心，成功必然在道路的尽头等着你。
我的中国梦
I am very glad to stand here to give thier a short speech.Today my topic is that the youth are the future of motherland
很高兴站在这里做这篇短小的演讲，我演讲的主题是青年是祖国的未来。
When preparing for the English speech contest, I simply want to search some articles as the contents of my speech. I read a lot of articles, some from the university professor, some from the famous host, some from the college students, and even from junior high school students. But after reading it, I gave up the idea, I even felt shameful. Today,the topic I want to talk about is a solemn and serious theme full of glory and pride, which is a common aspiration of all our Chinese. Every Chinese has his own dream of China, and of course, there is a dream lingering in my heart only belongs to my own.
在准备英语演讲比赛的时候，我本想简单地从网上搜索一些文章作为我演讲的内容。我看过很多文章，有著名主持人的、北大教授的、大学生的，也有初中生的。但是看完之后，我放弃了当初的想法，我甚至为当初的想法感到有一些羞愧。因为今天我站在这里向大家演讲的主题，是一个庄重而严肃的主题;是一个充满荣耀与自豪的主题;是每一个中华儿女共同期盼的主题。每个人都有属于他们自己的中国梦，而我，当然也有一直萦绕在心怀只属于我的中国梦。
So what’s my Chinese dream ? Finally I will announce.
We had learned a lot of knowledge and understood a lot of truth in the book. We had a basic concept to our country at that time. We know that our country is full of sunshine , and we are the future of our country, and our dreams are to be the hope of our motherland.
我的中国梦是什么样的?先卖个关子。
记得刚刚上学那会儿，我们天真无邪。在课本里，我们学到了很多很多知识，也明白了很多很多道理，我们对祖国也有了一个最基本的概念。我们知道我们的祖国到处充满阳光，正在慢慢发展，而我们，就是祖国未来的花朵，未来的希望。我们梦想将来能够成为祖国的希望。
However,We don't know what time to start,We are grow up,Life became not the same, though we don’t want to admit, it’s the truth that our mind and attitude to our country is changing. Our society became full of deception, indifference, intrigue, pressure, corruption, sinister, and we became irritable and not calm, detest the world and its ways. Our country seems to have become in a disastrous state too. A lot of young students who were nurtured by our motherland became impatient, let alone what are their dreams , what is the china dream ?
这，是我们最初的中国梦。最真诚的我们，最真诚的梦。
但是，不知道什么时候开始，我们长大了，生活似乎一下子变得和以前不太一样了，与此同时，虽然我们很不想承认但是却又不得不承认的是，我们的思想，我们的为人处世观，我们对我们祖国的看法，也潜移默化中慢慢开始了转变。我们的社会变得到处充满欺骗、冷漠、勾心斗角、压力、腐败、险恶，我们变得暴躁，不冷静，愤世嫉俗。我们的国家，似乎也开始变得千疮百孔。而好多我们亲爱的祖国委以重任培养的青年学生们变得轻浮、急躁，更别提什么梦想，什么中国梦了?
I was surprised ,when the old man fell down in the street,We are afraid to help him.I was disappointed ,when someone do good things were reported,many people think he was affectation, I was sad,when I saw many of young people become indifferent ,fraud and lack of ideal.
Are we sick, or is our dear motherland sick?
我很惊讶，当大街上有老人摔倒，我们不敢再去扶起;我很难过，当有人做了好事被报道，更多的人说他做作;我很伤心，当我看到我们众多的青年人变得冷漠、市侩、欺诈以及缺乏理想。
到底是我们病了，还是我们亲爱的祖国病了?
I don't want to talk about the construction of our country politics, and also speak impassioned speech on the Diaoyu Island event .I just want to appeal young people,showing the side of youth,good and confidence.We must learn to organize our own thoughts, correct our own concept, and change our direction to the right side in future life. China dream actually lies in our young generation, especially of the intellectuals.
我的中国梦，不想大谈政治，也不想对钓鱼岛事件发表慷慨激昂的演讲。我只想呼吁，呼吁我们年轻人，呼吁我们祖国的希望能够将我们的青春一面，将我们的善良一面，将我们的自信一面好好展现出来。我们要学会整理自己的思想，端正自己看问题的观念，摆正自己的人生方向。我们的中国梦实际上正掌握在我们自己手上，掌握在我们年青一代，尤其是知识分子手上。
Perhaps the strength of a person is small, but when his or her fate is connected with the motherland, he or she will be hero or heroine. Perhaps a dream is tiny, but when it becomes the dream of a country, it becomes inestimable. Perhaps I cannot change our country by my own, but if thousands and thousands of young people struggle for the dream together, our motherland is enough to make the world shock.
也许，一个人，是渺小的;但是当他和祖国联系起来时，就是伟大的。也许，一个梦想，是渺小的，但是当它成为祖国的梦想时，就是不可估量的。也许，我无法用自己一个人的力量撬起整个中国，但是我们千千万万年轻人一起为祖国的梦想去奋斗时，我们的祖国就足以令世界颤抖、动容。
I dream to construct our beauty China with millions of young people who have the same dream. We do it without exaggeration but only with persistence.
我梦想和万千具有相同梦想的年轻人去建设我们的美丽中国，没有虚浮，只有执着，只有奋斗，只有勇于担当。这就是我的中国梦!
That is my speech,thanks everyone.
我的演讲就到这里，谢谢大家。
“Once upon a time， there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." Well, you know the rest. The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.
And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "And they live happily every after."
Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story. It is highly philosophical and symbolic. By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.
The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. The term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.
If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.
The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.
I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. Now here I am. If I come out first, it will be a great success for me. If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.
Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.
