Good afternoon, everyone. It’s my great honor to stand here and give you a short speech. My topic is “Never give up”. Now let’s begin.
Have you seen a film named Titanic, I believe no one will shake head. It’s a film about how the ship Titanic sank into the sea in that time. It is very exciting. But I am quite interested in the story of the film, Jack and Rose’s story. I can learn some deeper things from it.
After the ship hit an iceberg and sank into the sea. Jack and Rose and other people fell into the cold sea water. As the weather was getting colder and colder, they were gradually stepping into death. Jack asked Rose to promise him not to give up the hope of life. At last, Jack was dead, and Rose had a narrow escape, because she listened to Jack and didn’t give up.
As for us, we will never be in the sank Titanic and do not insist on waiting for the rescue of others, but, in reality, never give up is still necessary and much more important.
In the race of life, there is no doubt that we will go through ups and downs, peaks and valleys, and joys and sorrows. When confronting adversities, someone feels blue and frustrated, declining to struggle one more time. However, there are some people holding fast to their original dreams, making relentless determinations to overcome life’s challenges and become respectable. In face of obstacles, they practice the spirit of “never give up” and eventually mount the winner’ stand.
Never give up the hope of life is high level thing, but we are obliged to do it bit by bit. No matter how life treats us, we shouldn’t give up the possibility of success, even if we are refused thousands of times, even if we are acting in adversity. We couldnt, wouldnt and shouldnt give up. In short, never give up is necessary and much more important in our life. Only holding the spirit can we achieve our goals and taste the sense of the success.
That’s all. Thank you for your attention.
Hello everyone! My name is, a student from*college. I am glad to give you a speech about my university. The title of my speech is My college, my home.
Last September I left my hometown with heavy baggage and after a journey of ten hours, I came to this dream campus with great expectation and excitement.
I was deeply attracted by the elegant environment of our campus the moment I stepped into the university. Straight, wide roads enjoyed the shade and shelter provided by lordly, green trees. Ancient buildings of great refinement enjoyed the company of flocks of birds flying and singing overhead. Scrolls of warm welcome greeted me and volunteers with smiles came to my help. My heart was filled with warmth. Yeah, this is the place where I will spend 4 years and this place will be my home!
Whenever I recall the past days, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. But what impressed me most is a night when I got a stomachache during the first days. I had to turn to the aunts in charge of our dormitory for help. They were so friendly and warm-hearted. They gave me the pills and reminded me of having more hot water. I recovered soon and I thanked them from the bottom of my heart because they brought me the warmth of home.
Our university is a famous academic center. The teaching staff are all learned professors. Many of them are world-wide known for their wide range of knowledge and charming personality. I respect my teachers! I admire my teachers! I love my teachers! Various activities are carried here. They not only bring me happiness but also improve myself. I meet with a lot of classmates and make a large number of friends. When I feel upset, the will give me a hand; when I am happy, I will share with them. The library has a large collection of books and I always lose myself in it. I believe they will benefit me a lot and are to broaden the roads of my future.
I love you,*University! You are just a place which gives me warmth and strengths! You are my home!
In the pitch-black night, stung by jellyfish, choking on salt water,singing to herself, hallucinating, Diana Nyad just kept on swimming. And thatshow she finally achieved her lifetime goal as an athlete, an extreme 100-mileswim from Cuba to Florida, at age 64. Hear her story.
Its the fifth time Diana Nyad stand on the Cuban shore believing again thatshe’s going to make it all the way across that vast, dangerous wilderness of anocean.
Life is about the journey, but not really the destination. Weve been on ajourney. Lets face it, were all on a one-way street. What are we going to do aswe go forward to have no regrets looking backTeddy Roosevelt quote was floatingaround in her brain over the past years in training. It says, "You go ahead andsit back in your comfortable chair as a critic or an observer, while the braveone gets in the ring, engages, gets bloody and dirty, and fails over and overand over again. Yet he isnt afraid or timid and lives life in a bold way." Whenyou achieve your dreams, its not so much what you get as who you have become inachieving them.
You have a dream and obstacles in front of you as we all do. None of usever get through this life without heartache, without turmoil. Believe inperseverance and have faith. Get back up again when you can get knocked down andyou will find your way.
"I have three messages," said the breathless Nyad. “The first is we shouldnever ever give up. The second is you are never too old to chase your dreams.And the third is that it looks like the most solitary endeavor in the world butit takes a team.”
Hellen Keller said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is fullalso of the overcoming of it.” People always fail because they stop trying, notbecause they encounter the unbeatable difficulties. "Never, never give up" meansto keep trying and never stop working for your goals. I think it’s a very goodpiece of advice for all of us and this is the most important thing that can helpus to achieve our goals.
I am quite sure that everybody knows Thomas Edison. Why so many peopletried to invent the electric lamp, but only Thomas Edison succeedIf Edison, likemany others, had been stilted by repeated failures, there would be no vibrantmodern cities at night. His success proves that if a person is not scared byseemingly insurmountable adversity, he can find the way to success..
In my opinion, never stop working for your goal doesn’t mean you must besuccessful. It doesnt even mean that you must achieve your goal, but its veryimportant to keep it in your mind. There are enough unfavorable conditions whichmake our lives difficult, but what important for us is to make efforts towardsyour goal or your dream. If you have given your best for your goal or yourdream, whether you succeed or not, at least you wont leave any regret in yourlife.
Dont give up working for your goal or your dream. If you succeed, you willtaste great joy in your life. If you dont succeed, you wont have regret in yourlife because you have given your best.
Dreams are hard to follow, hold on and there will be tomorrow. You willfind the way with the strength to carry on. Don’t give up.
One windy spring day， I observed young people having fun using the wind tofly their kites。 Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled theskies like beautiful birds darting and dancing。 As the strong winds gustedagainst the kites， a string kept them in check。
Instead of blowing away with the wind， they arose against it to achievegreat heights。 They shook and pulled， but the restraining string and thecumbersome tail kept them in tow， facing upward and against the wind。 As thekites struggled and trembled against the string， they seemed to say， “Let me go!Let me go! I want to be free!” They soared beautifully even as they fought therestriction of the string。 Finally， one of the kites succeeded in breakingloose。 “Free at last，” it seemed to say。 “Free to fly with the wind。”
Yet freedom from restraint simply put it at the mercy of an unsympatheticbreeze。 It fluttered ungracefully to the ground and landed in a tangled mass ofweeds and string against a dead bush。 “Free at last” free to lie powerless inthe dirt， to be blown helplessly along the ground， and to lodge lifeless againstthe first obstruction。
How much like kites we sometimes are。 The Heaven gives us adversity andrestrictions， rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength。Restraint is a necessary counterpart to the winds of opposition。 Some of us tugat the rules so hard that we never soar to reach the heights we might haveobtained。 We keep part of the mandment and never rise high enough to get ourtails off the ground。
Let us each rise to the great heights， recognizing that some of therestraints that we may chafe under are actually the steadying force that helpsus ascend and achieve。
在一个有风的春日，我看到一群年轻人正在迎风放风筝玩乐，各种颜色、各种形状和大小的风筝就好像美丽的鸟儿在空中飞舞。当强风把风筝吹起，牵引线就能够控制它们。
风筝迎风飘向更高的地方，而不是随风而去。它们摇摆着、拉扯着，但牵引线以及笨重的尾巴使它们处于控制之中，并且迎风而上。它们挣扎着、抖动着想要挣脱线的束缚，仿佛在说：“放开我!放开我!我想要自由!”即使与牵引线奋争着，它们依然在美丽地飞翔。最后，一只风筝成功挣脱了。“最后自由了，”它好像在说，“最后能够随风自由飞翔了!”
然而，脱离束缚的自由使它完全处于无情微风的摆布下。它毫无风度地震颤着向地面坠落，落在一堆乱草之中，线缠绕在一颗死灌木上。“最后自由”使它自由到无力地躺在尘土中，无助地任风沿着地面将其吹走，碰到第一个障碍物便毫无生命地滞留在那里了。
有时我们真像这风筝啊!上苍赋予我们困境和约束，赋予我们成长和增强实力所要遵从的规则。约束是逆风的必要匹配物。我们中有些人是如此强硬地抵制规则，以至我们从来无法飞到本来能够到达的高度。我们只遵从部分戒律，因此永远不会飞得足够高，使尾巴远离地面。
让我们每个人都飞到高处吧，并且认识到这一点：有些可能会令我们生气的约束，实际上是帮忙我们攀升和实现愿望的平衡力。
The sun has begun to set and I hang up the smile I’ve worn all day， thoughI will make sure it is the first thing I put back on in the morning just in caseit is “that day。” I want her to see me at my very best。
太阳将要下山，我收起挂了一天的微笑，但是我会确保明天早上第一件事就是将它又挂回去，以防这天就是“那一天”。我期望她看到我的最佳状态。
I do the normal routine， eat dinner， clean the house， write—the usualstuff。 And then I lay down hoping to fall asleep quickly so my new day willhurry up and arrive。 A new day with a brand new sun。 But as I lay there and waitfor the world to turn half way around， I think about her。 And sometimes I smile，and sometimes that smile will turn into asnicker， and then often that snickerwill turn into a burst of laughter。
我按平时的规律吃晚餐、打扫屋子、写作——做着日常事务。然后我躺下，期望能快点入睡，新的一天就能快点到来——拥有新生太阳的崭新的一天。可当我躺在那儿，等待着世界的日夜回转时，我想到了她。有时我会笑起来，有时那微笑变成了窃笑，然后窃笑又常常变成爆笑。
And then there are times I get that lump in my throat and that tightfeeling in my chest， and sometimes that feeling overwhelms me and begins to turninto a tear， and often that tear multiplies itself and I can no longer fight thefeeling and I lose the battle。 Then somehow through either the joy or thesadness I drift and find myself asleep。 Then the dreams begin and keep me panyuntil my new day arrives。
也有些时候，我的喉咙像是被一块东西哽住了，胸口发闷;有时那种伤感席卷而来，我开始流泪，眼泪常常越流越多，我再也无力抵抗悲伤，败下阵来。然后不知怎的，我在或喜悦或悲伤中飘荡，逐渐入眠。然后梦境开始伴我左右，直至新的一天到来。
When I awake it’s with such excitement because I tell myself this could bethe day that every other day has led up to and the first day of the rest of mylife。 I quickly don my smile because I do so want her to see me at my very best。Then I look out the window because， even though I know it’s dawn， I still haveto confirm I’ve been given another chance to find her。
醒来时，我兴奋不已，因为我告诉自我这天也许就是之前其他日子为之打下基础的“那一天”，是我余生的第一天。我迅速挂上微笑，因为我真的很想让她看到我的最佳状态。然后我朝窗外看去，因为即使我明白此刻才刚刚破晓，我仍得确定自我能够与她再次邂逅。
And there it is…the sun， even when it’s cloudy; somehow I still see it。 Andit smiles at me and I say， “Thank you，” and I smile back。
它在那里……太阳，虽然还是云雾重重，但我还是看到它了。它朝我微笑，我道了声“多谢”，回以一笑。
Then I ask myself， “Is this the day?” And the excitement rushes over meagain。 And then I ask myself， “Where’s it going to be?”
然后我问自我：“这天就是那一天吗?”兴奋之情再次充溢全身。然后我问自我：“它会在哪里呢?”
Maybe it’ll be at the water fountain， and， unexpectedly， there I’ll findher， and much more than my thirst will be quenched。 Maybe it’ll be at thegrocery store and there she’ll appear as I’m picking out fruit， and she’ll showme the difference between fresh and spoiled。 Then， from that moment， nothingthat I eat will ever taste the same because she’ll bring out the simplestbeauties in everything I see， taste， smell， hear， or touch。
也许它会藏在饮水机里，没想到我真能在那里找到她，为我生津止渴，取之不尽。也许它会躲在杂货店里，我拿起水果的时候，她就出现了，她会给我展示新鲜和变质的不一样。然后，从那一刻开始，我所尝到的一切味道不再一样，因为但凡我看到的、尝到的、闻到的、听到的或摸到的东西，她都带出了它们最简单的美丽。
Or maybe today will be the day when my angel brings an item up to the cashregister without its price tag。 And as I wait behind this angel with all thefrustrated people who are in such a hurry with their busy lives， I will findmyself with such blessed extra time。 Just enough time to start a conversationwith this beautiful vision standing in front of me that I might not otherwisehave noticed， but， because of a “price check on register 5，” I was able to findher。
或许就在这天，我的天使把一件没有价格标签的商品拿到收银台。我在天使身后排队，看着身心疲惫的人们忙忙碌碌地过日子，庆幸自我得到了这样的额外时光，让我能够和面前的倩影闲聊一会儿，否则我也许会错过，但只因为一句“请到5号收银台付款”，我就能找到她。
Thank you for the sun， which began my new day。 Thank you for granting methe faith when I arose this morning that I would find her in this new day。 Butmost of all， thank you for me not having to ever wait on another sunrise becausewhenever I want to see it， I will look at her and there it shall always be， inher eyes; she will forever hold it for me。
感谢太阳，它是新一天的开始。感谢你让我今早一齐床就满怀信心，明白自我能在这新的一天找到她。但最要感谢的是我不必再等下一个日出，因为无论我想何时看到它，我都能够看向她，它总会出此刻她的双眸里;她永远为我留着。
She is my sunrise， my dawn， my new day。
她是我的日出，我的黎明，我崭新的一天。
What would you do if you failed? Many people may choose to give up.However, the surest way to success is to keep your direction and stick to yourgoal.

In the State of Zheng. There was a man who wanted to go into town to buy apair of new shoes.
郑国，有个人想去城里买一双新鞋子。
Before leaving home, he measured his foot with a piece of straw for size.After he arrived at the town and entered a shoe shop, he put his hand into hispocket only to find that in his haste he had left the measurement at home.Thereupon, he turned round and started for home. But when he rushed back to theshoeshop with the measurement, the shop had closed. As a result, he had suanwenwbusied himself for nothing.
他离家前先用一根稻草量了自己的脚，把他当作尺码。他到了城里，走进鞋店，伸手摸口袋，从发现因为急着赶路，把尺码忘在家里了。于是，他转身就往家里跑。可是等他拿着尺码赶回鞋店的时候，店已经关门了。结果，他白忙了一阵子，还是没有买到鞋子。
Later, someone asked him:” Were you buying shoes for yourself or forothers? ”
后来，有人问他：“你是给自己买鞋，还是给别人买鞋?”
He answered:” For myself.”
他回答说：“是给我自己。
Someone else asked him:” Don’t you have your feet on yourself? You needonly to Try on shoes with your feet to get the right size. Why did you go backhome to fetch the measurement? “
别人又问他：“脚不是长在你自己身上吗?英语小短文只要用你的脚去试试鞋子的大小，不就可以了吗?为什么还要回家去拿尺码呢?“
The man of Zheng insisted:” I would rather trust the measurement than myown feet.”
那个郑国人坚持说：“我宁愿相信尺码，也不相信自己的脚。“
A boy found an eagle's egg and he put it in the nest of a prairiechicken.The eagle hatched and thought he was a chicken.He grew up doing whatprairie chicken do-scratching at the dirt for food and flying short distanceswith a noisy fluttering of wings.It was a dreary life.Gradually the eagle grewolder and bitter.One day he and his prairie chicken friend saw a beautiful birdsoaring on the currents of air,high above the mountains.
"Oh,I wish I could fly like that!" said the eagle.The chickenreplied,"Don't give it another thought.That's the mighty eagle,the king of allbirds-you could never be like him!" And the eagle didn't give it anotherthought.He went on cackling and complaining about life.He died thinking he was aprairie chicken.My friends,you too were born an eagle.The Creator intended youto be an eagle,so don’t listen to the prairie chickens!
一个小男孩发现了一只老鹰下的蛋,把它放进了一只山鸡的窝里.鹰被孵出来了,但他以为自己是一只山鸡.渐渐的他长大了,却做着山鸡所做的事---从泥土里寻找食物,做短距离的飞翔,翅膀还啪啪作响.生活非常沉闷,渐渐地鹰长大了,也越来越苦恼.有一天,他和他的山鸡朋友看见一只美丽的鸟在天空翱翔,飞的比山还高.
“哦,我要能飞的那么高该多好啊!”鹰说.山鸡回答说,“不要想了,那是凶猛无比的鹰,鸟中之王---你不可能像他一样!”于是鹰放弃了那个念头.他继续咯咯地叫,不停的抱怨生活.最后他死了,依然认为自己是一只山鸡.朋友们,你们天生就是雄鹰.造物主有意把你造就成一只雄鹰,所以不要听信山鸡的话!
We have only one earth.But now,the environment becomes worse and worse.Asyou know,there's no enough clean water for people.So many of them lose theirlives because of water.In a lot of countries,people have to cut trees forliving.So there's nothing to keep water from running away.Also we have pollutedthe land,the river and the air.Some people may say:we are the masters ofnature.Now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyondhis control.
the holes of the ozone layer make the earth less suitable to live for somecreatures including human beings.Facing all the disasters made by ourselves,wehave the responsibility to deal with the problem.
we must do something useful to protect our environment.We can plant treesand take good care of them.We can save the water and ask our parents to do so.Wecan't throw any litter onto the ground and we should collect them forrecycling.If we take good care of our earth today,it will be more beautifultomorrow.
我们只有一个地球.但是现在,环境变得越来越糟.如你所知,也没有足够的清洁饮水的人.所以许多人失去了他们的生命,因为水.在很多国家,人们不得不砍树的生活.所以没有什么能阻止水的流失.我们还污染了土地,河流和空气.有些人可能会说：我们是自然的主人.现在的“主人”似乎面临的问题远远超出他的控制。
臭氧层的空洞使得地球不再适宜于某些生物包括人类生活.面对着自己造成的灾难,我们有责任来处理这个问题。
我们必须做些什么来保护环境.我们可以种树,好好照顾他们.我们可以节约用水,并要求我们的父母这样做.我们不能把垃圾丢在地上,我们应该收集回收.如果我们好好照顾我们的地球上,这将是更加美好的明天。
"We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pagesare infinite---"
I do not know who wrote those words,but I have always liked them as areminder that the future can be anything we want to make it.We can take themysterious,hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine,justlike a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer.If we plant a good seed,we reap agood harvest.If our seed is poor and full of weeds,we reap a useless crop.If weplant nothing at all,we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past.I don't want it contaminatedby the mistakes and errors with which history is filled.We should all beconcerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder ofour lives.
The past is gone and static.Nothing we can do will change it.The future isbefore us and dynamic.Everything we do will effect it.Each day will brings withit new frontiers,in our homes and in our businesses,if we will only recognizethem.We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of humanendeavor.
“我们正在阅读一本页数无限的书的第一章的第一节……”
我不知道这段文字是谁写的,我一直很喜欢并用它们来提醒自己,那就是未来操之在我。我们可以掌握神秘而不可知的未来，从中创出我们所能想象的任何东西，一如雕刻家可以将未成型的石头刻出雕像一样。
我们每个人都是农夫，我们若种下好种子,就会有丰收，倘若种子长得不良且长满杂草,我们就会徒劳无获，如果我们什么也不种,就根本不会有什么收获。
我希望未来会比过去更好。我不希望未来会被那些充斥在历史中的错误所污染，我们应关心未来,因为往后的余生都要在未来中度过。
往昔已一去不复返而且是静止的，任凭我们怎么努力都不能改变过去，未来就在我们眼前而且是动态的.我们的所作所为都会影响未来，只要我们体会的出来,每天都可以发现新的知识领域伴随而生，可能是在家里,也可能是在我们的事业中，我们正处在人类所努力钻研的每个领域中进步的起点。
One day, if someone gets up on the right side of the bed and calls me andsays:’ You are the greatest person on earth. You are doing a great job and Iwant you to know I am honored to call you a friend.” I know he is sincere. Howdoes it make me fell? Great. But the next day, he gets up on thewrong side side of the bed, picks up the phone and says:” You rascal, you cheat,you crook! You are biggest fraud in town.” How does it make me feel?Terrible.
一天，如果某人情绪甚佳，并打电话给我说：“你是世界上最伟大的人。你做得非常好，我想让你知道把你称作朋友是我的荣幸。”我知道他是诚心的。听了这话我会有何感受?棒极了。然而第二天，他情绪不佳，拿起电话给我说：“你这恶棍，你这骗子，你这个不诚实的人!你是镇上最大的骗子。”我又有何感受?非常糟糕。
So the first day when he says, “You are the greatest guy,” I feel great andthe next day when he says, “you rascal,” I feel terrible. Who is controlling mylife? Obviously, he is, Is that the way I want to through life? Not at all. Thatis being externally driven.
第一天，他说：“你是最棒的人”时，我感觉良好。而第二天，当他说：”你是恶棍”时我感觉糟糕。谁在操纵我的生活?很明显是他。难道这就是我的生活方式吗?决不是，这是外因驱动。
I want to be internally driven. When he calls me and says I am the greatestguy it is good to hear those words. But even if he doesn’t say those words, inmy own estimation, I am still a god human being. And the next day when he ripsme apart, he can’t really, because in my own estimation. I am stilla good human being. When people make statements like, “You make me angry, ” thefocus of control is external. But if I say I am angry or I choose to be angry,the focus of control is internal.
我要主动的生活。当他打电话给我说我是最棒的人时，接受这些话语是有益的，但即使他并不是这么说，在我的自我评价中我依然是个好人。而第二天，当他想将我的自尊心撕碎时，他也并不能真正做到，因为在我的自我评价中我依旧是个好人。当人们说：“你使我愤怒“时，操纵点在外界。而如果我说我生气了，或者我要选择生气，那么操纵点就是内在的。
This is a multiple choice questions, could you tell me: senior year, I usethe attitude of how to grow? Answer: happy, pessimistic, make public, positive,rebellious, forbear, stick to, give up and shake of hardship and struggle... Youmay meet the challenge in the storm, can also learn to strong and enduring infailure. No matter what your choice is, three high, this is the growth of astruggle process.
Mr Yu has been in the "win in China" issued a theory of the grass tree:"there are two kinds of people's way of life, the first is like grass alive:growing up again, you still grow up, people can tread you, won't produce thepain, because people itself didn't see you, so every one of us should grow likea tree. Even if we now are nothing, but as long as you have the tree seed, evenif you are stepped on earth the middle, you still can absorb soil nutrients. Youmaybe two years three older is not big, but a decade eight years twenty yearsyou can grow into towering trees. Tree, alive is a beautiful scenery, dead stillis pillars just. Living dead are useful." In three of this article is a bitbumpy road, we should all in everyone's heart with the seed of a tree.Regardless of wind and rain wet eyes or wind broken skin, should be stalked asteadfast head high to meet belong to high in the thorns. Then, we slowly have atree trunk, forceful and vigorous. Although there are some see rough arm scar,but was poured with envious eyes.
Perhaps, three journey, we can not long be great trees like Mr Yu said,but, as long as we always have the dream of tree species, we will be able towait until that day, the sun is shining, shining on us on the green leaves offlashing bright green light.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift.
When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.
Success is not final and failure is not fatal: it is the courage tocontinue that counts.
成功不是终点，失败也不是终结，只有勇气才是永恒。
Never cease to outdo yourself. There are no limits to the success you canacquire when you have an duanwenw uncontrollable drive to achieve. Any obstaclesyou encounter along the way are life’s test to establish strength andperseverance. If you continually possess determination and self-confidencethroughout any situation, you will prevail.
超越你自己,永远不要停止。当你拥有无法過制的获胜冲动,你的成功将不可限量。前进路上的任何障碍都是用以确立力量和毅力的人生考验。倘若你在任何情况下都始终拥有决心和信心,你将会无往不胜。
I recently started a new job, in a small office, where four of us share afridge. In that fridge is a Brita water filter pitcher. One of my coworkerscomplained the water tasted "dirty". It went on for a few days, and she wasstunned I could drink the water without any trouble. I started to doubt my tastebuds, but the water really tasted fine.
最近我找了份新工作，是在一间小办公室里，我们四个人共用一个冰箱。冰箱里有一个Brita牌滤水壶，有一个同事抱怨说水喝起来感觉很“脏”，她连续抱怨了几天，还很震惊我喝这样的水竟然没事。我开始怀疑自己的味蕾出问题了，但我真觉着水喝着还不错。
Finally, she figured out the problem was actually her cup. She simplyforgot to clean it, and after awhile started to affect the water inside it. Shecleaned her cup, and drank the water with no problem.
最后，她发现问题出在了她的杯子上，她只是忘了刷杯子，过一段时间就影响里面水的味道了。她把杯子洗干净了，水就没有异味了。
I can't help but think about the world we live in. Too often we quicklyblame other people, other things, anything else but ourselves. "You're racist"."You're intolerant". "You're the problem". The world isn't perfect, I know, butI think we should take a step back sometimes and ask ourselves some toughquestions.
我禁不住思考了我们生活的世界，我们总是急于责备其他人、其他事、除了自己之外的一切东西。“你有种族歧视”、“你太狭隘”、“是你的问题”，我知道世界并不完美，但我认为有时我们应该退一步，问自己几个很难回答的问题。
Can I be better? Is my heart really pure? Can I help this situation withkindness?
我能变得更好吗?我的心真的纯洁吗?我能带着善意解决问题吗?
I want to tell you this; please clean your cup. Because when you do, thewater will taste much better. I promise you this.
我想告诉你这个道理：请洗干净自己的杯子。因为只有你把杯子洗干净了，里面的水味道才会好，我保证。
An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly,and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse;she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got outof her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed themouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. Ihave worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am tooold. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did whenthey were young."
一位老妇有只猫，这只猫很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了东西，因为它年纪太大了。一天，老猫发现一只老鼠，它跳过去抓这只老鼠，然而，它咬不住这只老鼠。因此，老鼠从它的嘴边溜掉了，因为老猫咬不了它。
于是，老妇很生气，因为老猫没有把老鼠咬死。她开始打这只猫，猫说：“不要打你的老仆人，我已经为你服务了很多年，而且还愿意为你效劳，但是，我实在太老了，对年纪大的不要这么无情，要记住老年人在年青时所做过的有益的事情。”
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as areminder that the future can be anything we want to make it.
We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything thatwe can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reapa good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop.If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminatedby the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all beconcerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder ofour lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The futureis before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.
Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in ourbusinesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of theprogress in every field of human endeavor.
我不知道这段文字是谁写的，我一直很喜欢并用它们来提醒自己，那就是未来操之在我。
我们可以掌握神秘而不可知的未来，从中创出我们所能想象的任何东西，一如雕刻家可以将未成型的石头刻出雕像一样。
我们每个人都是农夫。我们若种下好种子，就会有丰收。倘若种子长得不良且长满杂草，我们就会徒劳无获。如果我们什么也不种，就根本不会有什么收获。
我希望未来会比过去更好。我不希望未来会被那些充斥在历史中的错误所污染。我们应关心未来，因为往后的余生都要在未来中度过。
往昔已一去不复返而且是静止的。任凭我们怎么努力都不能改变过去。英语短文未来就在我们眼前而且是动态的。我们的所作所为都会影响未来。
只要我们体会的出来，每天都可以发现新的知识领域伴随而生，可能是在家里，也可能是在我们的事业中。我们正处在人类所努力钻研的每个领域中进步的起点。
A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on asignboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with aloud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herselfterribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and wascaught by one of the bystanders.
Zeal should not outrun discretion.
有只鸽子口渴得很难受，看见画板上画着一个水瓶，以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过去，不料一头碰撞在画板上，折断了翅膀，摔在地上，被人轻易地捉住了。
这是说，有些人想急于得到所需的东西，一时冲动，草率从事，就会身遭不幸。

To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off Whenit rains. But actually the umbrella wasn't invented as protection against rain.Its first use was a shade against the sun!
在我们看来,下雨打伞是很自然的事。 但事实上伞在发明的时候并不是用来防雨的,而是用来遮阳的 。
Nobody knows who first invented it, hut the umbrella was used in veryancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in theeleventh century BC.
没有人知道是谁发明了伞,但是伞在很早很早的古代就开始使用了 。可能首先使用伞的人是中国人,这要追溯到公元前11世纪。
We know the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade.And there was duanwenw a strange thing connected with its use: it became asymbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrellawas allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.
我们知道,在古埃及和古巴比伦伞是用来遮阳的 。关于这一用途有一点很奇怪:伞成了尊严与权力的象征 。在古代的远东地区,只有皇室和高官才能使用伞。
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. Andthe umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that thefirst persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against Romans.
在欧洲,希腊人是首先把伞用于遮阳的人。 伞的使用在古希腊很普遍.但是据信在欧洲首先使用伞的人是为了防范罗马人 。

中世纪的时候伞几乎消失, 16世纪后期又在意大利出现,并再一 次成为权力和威严的象征。 到1680年,伞开始在法国出现,之后又出现在英国 。

到18世纪,伞在整个欧洲几乎都用来遮雨了 。 在这期间,伞的样式一直没有发生太大变化,只是重量上轻了许多 。直到20世纪才出现了各种颜色的女士用伞。
Dear audience and judges,
My topic is "Can money buy happiness".
As we all know, money can buy all the goods in our life, no matter how huge it is. A spaceship, for example, if you really feel your bank account can afford it.
However, when it comes to love, satisfaction, happiness and many other human feelings, it is completely not like this. The result of many recent research can support my point. They said that, though people received far more money than ever, their standard for happiness also rised. That means, if you had one yuan, a car might be your dream, but if you had one million, you might consider owning a space trip. So when people always hope for those they can not afford, they will push themselves to an unhappy
Anyhow, money equal wealthy in life but not happiness in mind. Only by changing our attitude to money and enjoying every day, can we obtain a truely happy future!
We study in a beautiful school,since the day I came here I have began to love her.

And there are also many many good teachers in our school,they teach us so carefully in each calss,and when you meet hard problem they won't stop telling until you understand.So we often have good markes in the examnations.

So many things I will say,but the most important thing is that you come here ,I think you must love our school.Because everyone here loves it!
My dream
Students, guests , teachers and Honorable Judges.
Good morning !
my great pleasure to share my dream with you today. my dream is to become a teacher....
As the whole world has its boundaries, limits and freedom coexist in our life. I don’t expect complete freedom, which is impossible. I simply have a dream that supports my life.
I dream that one day, I could escape from the deep sea of thick schoolbooks and lead my own life. With my favorite fictions, I lie freely on the green grass, smelling the spring, listening to the wind singing, breathing the fresh and cool air and dissolve my soul in nature at last. Simple and short enjoyment can bring me great satisfaction.
I dream that one day the adults could throw their prejudice of comic and cartoon away. They could keep a lovely heart that can share sorrow and happiness with us while watching cartoon or doing personal things. That’s the real communication of heart to heart.
I have the belief that my dreams should come true. I am looking forward to some day coming when I am like a proud eagle, which flies to the blue and vast sky.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Thanks for your coming, I fell so happy , I have this chance to stand thereto share my ideas about my hometown with you all.
A culture creats a city, the water and soil bring up the people. At thefoot of Erlang mountain, in the middle of Sichuan province, lies a small townnamed Tian Quan. I am proud to say: it is my hometown.
Wherever I go, Tian Quan stays in my deep memory forever. I can not forgetthe place where I was born and grow up, I can not forget the place wheresurrounded by green mountains and water, I can not forget the good and honestpeople who working hard in there, I can not forget every river, every streetthere.
Standing at the top of the WenBi mountain, you will catch a bird’s eye viewof the whole Tian Quan. You will find it is a beautiful picture including themordern colour and old smell.
Looking at the lovly provious animals , such as panda, Takin, Goldenmonkey. You will thinks the nature has special power to make life sowonderful.
My hometown has a long history of culture. There is thetea-horse-accient-way, which attracts Chinese and foreign tourists to visit .Walking on the tea-horse-accient-way, you can’t help sign in regret how long ourculture is!
Tian Quan is also famous for it’s culture of tea. In summer , the farmerswork on the tea plantations, you will regard it as a lively picture. If you havea chance to work on the tea plantations, you can’t miss it! You can enjoy thetea and learn more about tea at the same time .How wonderful it is!
I want to say a song for my hometown, but I don’t know what kinds of musicis fit for her, I want to write a poem for her, but I don’t know what words candescribe her.
Everyday is a new beginning , put you hands together , give a smile to theland, say a words to Tian Quan : you will in my heart , forever.
Thanks for your listening,thanks.
In spring, seedling ground, frantically grow taller, that is they dream inthe dance; Summul, lian lian, blue light quiver decorated, that is the heart ofthe wind in the dance; Autumn, yellow leaves, so complex, that is Ye Zaiyonglife dance; Winter, snow flying, hovering circle again, that is Snow White inthe dance with soul.
Three is the dance of Ruth, wearing chains want to dance.
Out of the higher carelessly, faded high impetuous, we lit candles dream,shine the light of hope, in this play rhythm of light and shade easy start.
18 years old, no longer complain about the heavy chains. Parents'expectation, the teacher's hands, the good tomorrow, generally in the third yearin the night sky the stars shine. We are willing to bear the weight, because ofthe thickness of that there is life; Our whole heart cherish the heavy, becauseit is in the life most the genial spring scenery.
18 years old, no longer complain in chains. Began to pay attention to hisfather's white hair, wrinkles began to love his mother, began to understand theteacher's painstaking. 18 years old birthday, don't party, don't cake, don'tgift, just want to a person coagulation cautious but dozens of years, eightyears lost, cherish, thirsty... We are willing to accept the bondage, becausethat is the gift of the creator; We appreciate those bound by heart, becausethat is the most happiness in life.
Three is a dance, dance of life chain!
We are not afraid to take responsibility, we are not afraid of thechallenge of fate, we will use shackles on the musical rhythm, in the time ofthe fly with the wind...
Life is unfair.
Success is not measured on the days when the sun shines. Success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days.
If you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna meet success.The thing about life is it's not always easy, and you can't always win. Some point of your life, it hits you. It hits you really really hard.
The person you love doesn't love you back, you get fired, you lose a family member. At some point of your life, you're gonna hit rock bottom.
You're paralyzed, you're like, "Why?" And that why can really really destroy you. Once you start asking yourself, "Why me? Why not the others, why me?
I'm actually a good person, I never did something significantly bad, why the hell did it hit me?" Because that's life.
Life is unfair. Success is not measured on the days when the sun shines. Success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days. And if you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna meet success.
Every day of your life, it is important to take the time to “smell the roses” — to appreciate the experiences that lead to happiness. This is part of being truly happy.
Happiness is a state of mind. It starts with accepting where you are, knowing where you are going and planning to enjoy every moment along the way. You know how to be happy, and feel that you have enough time or money or love or whatever you need to achieve your goals. And just feeling that you have enough of everything means that you do indeed have enough.
You have to choose to be happy, and focus upon being happy, in order to be happy. If you instead focus upon knowing that you will be happy if you achieve something, you will never be happy, as you have not learned to “smell the roses”. The irony is that when you are happy, you are inevitably more productive, and far more likely to achieve what everything-seekers are seeking.
