Honorable judges and dear friends,
My name is maer dongyan, i’m very happy today to stand here to share my speech, my imagination, and my story as an air traffic controller with all of you.
I, as a 35-year-old air traffic controller, have been working on the tower for nearly ten years. through these years’ working, I really come to love this job. Besides, as the husband of my beloved, the father of my 8-year-old daughter, and the son of my old parents, i also love my family, Ahappy family.
Hhowever, it has been really hard to coordinate my work and my family.
It’s generally considered great to be an air traffic controller by the public, for the job is believed to be well-paid and quite easy. I was also one of them before i started the work. But things have been entirely different from what i used to think. as an air traffic controller of the new century, we’re facing tasks and barriers greater and harder than ever, that is, we have to ensure the safety and order of the fast-developing civil aviation. We’re burdened with pressure, responsibilities, the trust of hundreds of pilots, the lives of tens of thousands of passengers, and the hopes of millions of families. every step we take, every word we say is connected to the safety of passengers. And disasters may occur if we’re even a little bit careless. Then, how can that be easy?
As a man who owns a family, i also have to take care of my family. Still, it isn’t that easy. Since i took the job 10 years ago, i haven’t had enough time to be with my family. so many festivals have i spend with microphones, but not my family and friends, just because my job needs me. So many times have my wifecomplained about my returning home late and having meals outside often, just because my job needs me. And so many times, my mom or dad is sick in bed, but i cannot be there with them in time, just because my job needs me. I cannot fully devote myself to my family because my job needs me, a lot of people need me. And again, as a man with a family, how can that be easy?Even though i’m not competent as a father, a husband, and a son, i still love my family. My daughter once said that it was her happiest time to see me back from work. And it’s the same with me. I’m pleased and grateful to see that my family can support and understand my work and my little devotion to them.
I have made many sacrifices as an air traffic controller. I really feel sorry for my family. but as i help pilots find their destinations under terrible weather conditions, and then hear “thanks” from them, i’m satisfied. and as i see planes taking off and landing safely, and make sure that hundreds more families can get together, i’m comforted. I even seem to be able to see the happy smiles on their faces.Such is my job, though i cannot enjoy much of the happiness my family brings to me, i can experience the sense of responsibility through my work. I’ll never regret this, regret choosing my job. It is through these years that i know what responsibility and devotion really mean. And it is through these years that i realize what family really means to me---supporting and understanding. I really appreciate them.
With my family as an anchor for me, i firmly believe that i can overcome all the difficulties on my way, and make a contribution to the cause of air traffic control. and i believe, i am, and always will be a member of civil aviation, and my family as well.
That’s all for my speech today, thank you very much for your listening.
Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom. It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time as long as he lives in the world .We should learn how to face failure bravely and to try to deal with it.
I think we should be grateful to life whenever we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail .We can also get relief and warmth when we are unlucky. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and hope.
Are you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?
Many people have sought a variety of sources for their feeling of happiness. Some people have put their heart and efforts into their work. Too many people turned to drugs and alcohol. Untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, and other popular toys. Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact : people rare looking for a lasting source of happiness
Today , some people think that an expensive car is stimults . Happiness is a response , and so on .This belief leaves us thinking and feeling : I will be happy when ……
But , I believe that happiness is a sttimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy ,when we are happy ,we tend to have more success in our work . When we are happy , people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationship . When we are happy , wo more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health . Happiness is not a response ----rather , it is a stimults .
Happiness is a conscious choice we make everyday of our lives . We usually get things we want after we choose to be happy . I think you can make only one simple rule for your own happiness . Every day above ground is a good day . Therefore , I tend to have a lot of good days in successsion!
Liu Mei ,who is my friend, is beatuiful.
She does homework everyday,which makes her unhappy ,because she has no timeto play.She hardly ever watches TV ,because she does not like watching TV.Sheoften surfs the Internet three or four times a week.She reads English bookeveryday,because she likes English.She has a good life habit.She exercises twicea day.And she goes to the movies once a week.
I like my friend ,she is charming.
刘梅,我的朋友,一个漂亮的女孩。
她每天最不开心的时候就是写作业,因为写完作业几乎就没有时间可以玩了。她几乎不看电视,因为她不喜欢看电视。她每周经常上网三到四次。她每天都读英语书,因为她喜欢英语。她有一个好的生活习惯。她每天锻炼两次,还有就是她每周去看一次电影。
我喜欢我的朋友,她是迷人的。
We often say that the earth is our homeland and human society comes from nature. Therefore, I think our society is a part of nature. People should live harmoniously with nature. All the materials we need to live with come from nature, but we should also repay the nature, rather than blindly solicit. For example, we should plant more trees and take actions to protect the environment. In addition, we have to control population. Due to excessive population growth, human beings require much more natural resources than before, which lead to excessive pressure on nature. In order to long-term development, the population growth must be controlled. We all come from nature which is our homeland, so we must try best to protect it.
I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King. But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.
However, we meed dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectives and stick to it. Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future. Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will make it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
As we all know, healthy is very important to everybody.But do you really know how to stay healthy? Here are some useful tips. First, we should do exercise if we have time.For example, we can go to swim in the summer holiday. Or we can take a walk after supper.Doing exercise makes us healthy and strong. Second, we should take more vegetables and fruit and less candies. Stop eating junk food and drinking beers. Last but not least, we should go to bed early and wake up early. We should have enough sleep, or we will get sleepy in the day time. If we pay more attention to the tips above, we will have healthier body. I wish everybody has a strong and healthy body.
我们都知道,健康对每个人来说都很重要。但是你知道该如何保持健康吗? 这里有一些实用的建议。首先,我们应该做运动,如果有时间的话。例如,我们可以在暑假的时候去游泳,或者晚饭后去散步。做运动让我们的身体更强壮更健康。第二,我们应该吃更多的蔬菜和水果,少吃糖果。不吃垃圾食品和啤酒。最后,我们应该早睡早起。如果睡不够,第二天就会很疲倦。如果我们都能按照以上的建议注意自己的健康,我们的身体会更棒。我希望每个人都有个强壮和健康的身体。
Smoking is a bad habit that does harm to smoker and others. Many kinds ofdiseases and cancers are caused by smoking, such as tracheitis, lung cancer andmany other diseases. Recent years, there are tens of thousands of people dyingof smoking. But there still are many people enjoying smoking, because they thinksmoking is a kind of fashion and smoking is so cool, especially among teenagers.In addition, smoking does harm to others as well. Second hand smoking has beenrecognized harmful to other people. Even worse, it may cause more damages.Therefore, people should remember that smoking is harmful to others and thosepeople who smokes should give up smoking as soon as possible.
吸烟是个坏习惯,它对吸烟者和别人都有害。很多疾病和癌症是有吸烟引起的,比如说气管炎,肺癌还有很多其他疾病。近年来,成千上万的人死于吸烟。但是仍然有很多人喜欢吸烟,因为他们认为吸烟是一种时尚,很酷,特别是青少年。另外,吸烟也会对别人有害。二手烟是公认的对别人有害的。更糟糕的是,它会带来更多伤害。因此,人们应该牢记吸烟有害他人,那些吸烟的人应该尽可能戒烟。

whether sixty or sixteen,there is in every human being's heart the lure ofwonders,the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the gameof living.in the center of your heart and my heart there is a wirelessstation:so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope,cheer,courage and powerfrom men and from the infinite,so long are you young.
无论是60岁还是16岁,你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄灭的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事业成功的欢乐与热情.在你我的心底,有一座无线电台,它能在多长时间里接收到人间万物传递来的美好、希望、欢乐、鼓舞和力量的信息,你就会年轻多长时间.
an individual human existence should be like a river—small atfirst,narrowly contained within its banks,and rushing passionately past bouldersand over waterfalls.gradually the river grows wider,the banks recede,the watersflow more quietly,and in the end,without any visible break,they become merged inthe 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.
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.
years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul.worry,fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back todust.
光阴可以在颜面上留下印记,而热情之火的熄灭则在心灵上刻下皱纹.烦恼、恐惧、缺乏自信会扭曲人的灵魂,并将青春化为灰烬.
Our each children all have own parents, we live every day in the seawhich the parents shows loving concern. Parents' love, likes a mountain, GREat and is generous; Parents' love, likes that tree root, firm and is deep; Parents' love, likes the honey which that hundred flowers breeds, but is happy.

Teacher and classmates:
Good morning, everyone!My name is Wang Jinkun,my English name is Sam. I am ten years old. I like reading books in my free time. Today I’ll tell an English story for you. The name of the story is《 The poor man and The rich man》.
There is a poor man. He has an orange tree. On the tree ,there are many fine oranges. One of them is very, very big. It is as big as a football. Nobody sees so big an orange. The poor man is very happy. He takes it to the king. The king is so happy that he gives the man a lot of money for it.
The next day when the king receives the gold cup, he says to the rich man, “What a beautiful cup! I’ll show you something wonderful. Please take this great orange.”
That’s all ,Thank you.

我的学校生活是普通的。从星期一到星期五我每天早上六点起床。之后我会和同学一起去跑步,因为班主任说健康是最重要的。跑完步后我要在操场上做早操。然后我就可以吃早餐了。吃完早餐后,我就要早读了。哦,我差点忘了,所有的学生在早餐前都要做大扫除。之后就是各种各样的课程了。再之后中午来了。吃完午饭后,我就要去午睡。我经常会在睡觉之前看十分钟的书。下午继续上课。晚上也是。是不是很无聊呢?但我已习惯了在学校的生活,并且过得很开心。
More and more China internet accounts discovered the pleasure of shopping online. In accordance with China Internet Information Centerthere has been more than 87 millions Chinese shopping on line during the first halfwhich means that about a quarter of the Chinese netizens had the online shopping experience. A majority of online shoppers were 18~30-year-old students and white collar whose monthly income ranged from 1000 to 3000. Women shop on line more strong than men. Clothes and household products are purchased on line mostly. Expected that this trend of online shopping can only increase in the futurewhich represents that Chinese economy has the strong momentum of development.
越来越多的中国互联网用户发现了网购的乐趣。中国互联网络信息中心称,上半年有超过8700万的中国人网络购物,这意味着四分之一的中国网民有网络购物的经历。大多数网络购物者为18--30岁的学生和白领,月收入在1000--3000元不等。女性网购多于男性。衣服和家用产品是在网上购买最多的东西。预计网络购物这一趋势在将来只增不减,这反映出中国经济的强劲发展劲头。
There is a wonderful word which expresses the most original motions anddesires among human-beings. With solving any kind of imperfections, our worldhas moved ahead. This is the word “innovation” that we cannot afford tolose.
We chicaned every detail of the innovation. Thousands years before, wecreated fire when we took a stone to knock another one. Since Han Dynasty, fourgreat inventions had been created and it is one of the greatest signs that Chinabecome to the ancient civilized country. And nowadays, thousands of software,products, architectures and public facilities have upgraded more than that about100 years ago. So how did these happen? What will you do if you are notsatisfied with your tools anymore? What will you do if old mode cannot afford todevelop in a company? There is no doubt that we should innovate no matter wherewe are and what we do. Not because of the design itself, but actually for itsintended purpose.If there was no Apple, everyone could not imagine how tocontact others easily and enjoy a better Internet surfing.
If there was no Microsoft, perhaps we still worked in a dim office andduplicate some troublesome documents. If there was no Newton, and no theory ofgravity, maybe I will win the Nobel Prize like Newton rather than just standinghere. I have heard that three apple changed the world. The first one seducedEve. The second one awakened Newton. The third one was in the hands of SteveJobs. We sort of think the innovation of the world began with apple. I imaginelots of people want to become another Newton or Jobs right now with just onehand to change the world, right? Have the innovation to follow your heart. Itsomehow already reflects what you truly want to become. Everything else issecondary.
Via questioning, we can start to innovate. Via innovating, we can start tocreate better lives. No innovation, no improvement. No improvement, no success.And no success, no civilization. Now, our time is limited, so don't waste itliving someone else's life! Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown outyour own inner voice! Don't let yourself down! It is the innovation that wecannot afford to lose!
OUT OF MANY
WE ARE ONE
Three months ago,twenty six boys and four girls gathered together on the ground of the university
Of Geosciences,At that moment ,they formed the class numbered 111112.
Time passed by,and I conclude one idea in my mind.Well ,this idea doesn’t only come from my unyielding
faith in the united spirit of the chinese people but it also comes from my own story.
I am an eighteen year-old boy who has never experienced being away from my parents for more than a month.At first,I thought I have to learn to be independent and I woulde have to overcome the difficulties with no one to depend on.
But a story changed my mind.
Five days ago,I got a heavy cold.Recalling that day’s event,I was in low condition and felt helpless in the bed,however,after knowing what had happened,one of classmates just say” I will accompany you along the way to the hospital and the way back to school.”That single moment of his words may not mean much.But it is where we start,it is where we all form the common belief that your guys’ shoulders will be ready for you whenever you are in need of help even though in the risky of falling behind in study.The class you are in will be your another family.
And there is also another story I would like to mention here,Our class ranked low in this month,but there are not blames,not critics,not anything like you should have done it better.We just say”We can,and we will do it better and better step after step.”
Well, I think the two things just reflect one spirit which has seared into my heart that we may come from different places and we may have different stories and we may move in the different directions towards different futures.But we all would give the world to make our class shine.we are not only the sum of its parts that out of many,we are truly one.
good morning,dear teacher and my friends.
What qualities do you think a friend should have to continue the friendship?Use specific reasons to support your idea.
In my heart,I think the most important quality to continue the friendship is sincerity.A true friendship must be built on sincerity.However,to continue a friendship is not a easy thing.Both of each other have to pay a lot.The word sincerity contains too much.Firstly,we need to be frank and honest to each other.Only if when we did so can the other side treat us like the same and thus build belief between friends.
A friendship full of lies and deceit shouldn't be called friendship.Secondly,we need to be considerable and do not be self-centered.We should think more for our friends and encourage them on certain occasion.A self-centered friend can be very troublesome and annoying.No one would tolerate him for a long time.Finally,I think we should learn to compromise sometimes.We can't live in harmony forever with our friends.When there expose a disagreement,we should compromise to each other.Only by this way can a friendship last long.
Thank you!
化Chinese food is very famous around the world, if you ask a foreign peopleabout his opinion on Chinese food, he will speak highly of it.When we see themovie, Chinese food is praised by the people.Recently, there is a famous moviecalled A Bite of China, the movie is popular, it introduces Chinese food fromdifferent places.The audience is attracted by the delicious food, they neverthought Chinese food would be so various.Now the second part of the movie hasbeen made out, more and more Chinese traditional food has been introduced.Afterappreciating the movie, I begin to learn more about Chinese food, I want to havetaste of them.I am so proud of our food, when we talk about it to foreignfriends, we can feel their favor of our food.The food is part of our culture,they should be inherited.
Environmental protection is a big project, but we can start around things, do a lot of things to protect the environment.
Our paper every day, do you know the paper is how to? Is made of trees to make paper. Every year around the world to cut down many trees to make paper. I have seen a special TV, save 1500 sheets of paper, you can leave a big tree. The tree is our good fri, it can turn carbon dioxide into oxygen, can reduce the noise, can block the sand, can prevent water loss and soil erosion... Starts me, saving every piece of paper, children all over the world can save a lot of a lot of paper, you can retain a lot of trees, you can leave a big forest, desert, less and less, more and more pure and fresh air, green more and more. How I wish my hometown mountain more green, and blue, the water environment of our lives forever charactizing a fine spring day.
We used in battery life; it contains lead, if throw it carelessly, section 1 waste batteries can lose one square metre of soil utilization value forever. In many countries, many areas have carried out recycling of waste batteries. In Germany, to buy a new battery, used batteries must be pay back. So, we should to find a "home" for waste batteries. I hope we panzhihua environmental protection departments also set up waste battery recycling. Thoroughly protect the soil so that it can always grow crops.
Save a piece of paper, recycling waste battery section... Although we do is small, but it made great contribution for environmental protection. I hope my classmates now on, all to do an environmental small guards. There is only one earth, we have to take care of it.
环保是一个很大的工程,但我们可以从身边的小事做起,为保护环境做很多事。
我们每天都要用纸,你知道纸张是怎么来的吗?是用大树来造纸的。全世界每年都要砍掉很多树来造纸。我看过一个专题电视,节约1500张纸,就可以保留一棵大树。大树是我们的好朋友,它可以把二氧化碳变为氧气,可以降低噪音,可以挡住风沙,可以防止水土流失……从我做起,节约每一张纸,全世界的小朋友可以节约很多很多纸,就可以保留很多很多大树,就可以留下一片大森林,沙漠越来越少,空气越来越清新,绿色越来越多。我多希望我的家乡山更青、水更绿,我们生活的环境永远鸟语花香。
我们生活中用到的电池,它含有铅,如果把它随手乱扔,1节废电池可以使一平方米的土壤失去永远的利用价值。很多国家、很多地区都开展了废电池的回收。在德国,购买新电池的时候,必须将废旧电池交回来。所以,我们应该给给废电池找个“家”。我希望我们攀枝花的环保部门也设立废旧电池回收站。好好的保护土壤,让它可以永远长出庄稼。
节约一张纸、回收一节废旧电池……我们做的虽然是小事,但却为环保做了大贡献。我希望我的同学们从现在开始,都来做一个环保小卫士。地球只有一个,我们都要好好爱护它。
there was a guy who went into a shop to buy a parrot。 there werethreeparrots in the shop。 one was $5,000; another one, $10,000; and the third one,$30,000。 the customer asked the owner, “how e this guy is $5,000? that?s soexpensive for this kindof parrot。” the owner said, “because i have trained himand he can talk。” so the customer asked him, “how about this guy? what can he dothat makes him so expensive?” the owner said, “well, apart from talking, he canalso do some amusing actions,like dancing and so on。 that?s why he?s soexpensive。” then the customer said, “how about the third one? what canhe do thatmakes him so expensive?” the owner of the shopsaid, “i don?t know。 normally, ihave never heard him talk, nor dance, nor whistle, nor sing, nothing at all! butthe other two call him ?the boss。?”
有个人到一间商店买鹦鹉。店里有三只鹦鹉,其中一只卖五千元,另一只卖一万元,还有一只卖三万元。
顾客问老板:「为什么这只要卖五千元?这个价钱对这种鹦鹉来说太贵了!」
老板说:「因为我有训练他讲话。」
顾客又问:「那这只呢?他会做什么?为什么要卖这么贵?」
老板说:「他除了会说话之外,还会表演一些搞笑的动作,好比说跳舞等等,所以才卖这么贵。」
顾客之后又问:「那第三只呢?他会做什么?为什么要卖这么贵?」
老板说:「我不明白。我从没听过他讲话、吹口哨或唱歌,也没看过他跳舞,什么都没有!但是另外两只叫他:『老板!』

I believe that friend is just like the candle in the dark; whenever, youare involved into grieve danger, your friends would be the most useful guide tohelp you out. As such, friends are the most essential part in everyone's lives.The friends around me are very nice and always ready to help. I reallyappreciate all their assistance to my study and work. I usually spendall myspare time with my best friends. We normally go shopping and play basketballtogether. The best way to keep friendship lies in frequent contact. If not, therelationship between you and your friends would be remote. So, a simple phonecall or a warm visit would greatly help you promote your friendship!
My Definition of Success
“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.
Dear teachers:
Mr Shao taught me English when I was in Senior the bald head and hunchback, the fifty or some man distinguished himself from his counterparts in many ways.
He was so addicted to tobacco that he couldn`t even skip acigarette in the corridor at the interval between two classes. Due to the long time consumption of cigarettes, his teeth had gone totally bad and occasionally let off unpleasant smell which really disturbed us when we were talking to him. At times, he came to recognize it and consequently found out a solution. He suggested we write down our problems and he answer them in the written form. Although I knew all along that he was a careful man, his quotations of five different dictionaries on a single multiple choice problem was still beyond my wildest dream.
What`s more, none of us could imagine how excellent his ancient Chinese literature was. What he tended to do in his class was to recite several segments of the famous ancient prose and then put them into English. However, under the pressure of College Entrance Exam, the students didn`t seem to be so interested in his performance. Therefore, he tried to stimulate the class by editions of Times as prizes for answering questions. It worked on us instantly.
On the day of the entrance exam, he waited nervously with us out of the examination room. He kept reminding us not to drink water in case that we would feel like going to toilet during the exam. Not withstanding his constant claims that we students were far less important than his beloved daughter, we did feel his devotion to us.
Friends play an important part in our lives,and although we may take friendship for granted,we often don't clearly understand how we make friends.While we get on well with a number of people,we are usually friends with only a very few----for example,the average among students is about 6 per person.In all the cases of friendly relationships,two people like one another and enjoy being together.but beyond that,the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for the shared interests vary enormously.As we get to know people we take into account things like age,race ,economic conditions,social position,and intelligence.Although these factors are not of prime importance,it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.
Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion,but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs,to have attitudes and interests in commen ---they often talk about "being on the same wavelength ".it generally takes time to reach this point.And the more intimately involved people become,the more they rely on one another .people want to do friends favours and hate to break a promise.Equally,friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and try to tolerate differencesof opinion.
In contrast with marriage ,there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two persons.But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond ,which can overcome differences in background ,and break down barriers of age, class or race.
Happiness is dependent upon work. Sometimes we complain that we have too much work, but we fail to realize that it’s our work that keep us moving on and helps us to become a better man. Last summer I visited my friends in a small village. It was obvious that working has become an indispensable part of their daily lives. They all went to the field to plant the crops. The sun was shinning above them and they looked quite happiness about their work. On their face there were such smiles as I had never seen before.
Work provide us with happiness. Work is more than a necessity for human beings. If we have no work to do, we will waste our precious time. That’s pity. We will lose everything in the end. Work helps us to realize the importance of life, then we will appreciate it more. Everybody who live in this society could not live without working. If we spend every day idly, we will find life is boring.
Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas!
Ho Ho Ho ! Boys and girls, Merry Christmas to you all!
This is the holiday you're with your family
We put aside our differences and let it be
how much fun it is to give and to receive
This time of year, love is all we need.

And this:
"We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year."
We sing in English, in Spanish or in Chinese
cause Christmas is a universal holiday now.
“Do you hear what I hear”, boys and girls?
Everywhere you go you see
“Little Drummer Boy.”
“Frosty the Snow Man.”
“Rudolf, the red-nosed reindeer”
And “Here comes Santa Claus! “
Boys and girls,
“I'll be home for Christmas”on a “Silent night”
“ I’ll be home for Christmas” cause
“It's the most wonderful time of the year”.
I will pray for a “White Christmas”
I will shout” Let it snow, Let it snow!”
I will decorate “ Oh Christmas Tree”
Last but not the least
I will dance with my loved one with this
“Auld lang syne”
Boys and girls, “From all of us to all of you”.
A Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Bye, everybody!
Ways to Maintain Good Relationships Between the lovers
Therelationship is made beautifully, when two people come together to share theirlove for each other. Young lovers how to keep the flame in theirrelationship aglow.I have a long distance relationshipboyfriend of five years.From my perspective, goodrelationship refers to equality, helping and respecting each other, which isbased on trust. Here are my experiences in the love with my boy friend.
First of all Honesty.Be honest in your relationship. When two people from differentbackgrounds come together to share their love, honesty is the only thing thatkeeps the relationship to collapse. With honesty is confidence, love grows withtime.
Understanding followed. As a girl,dressing yourself quickly, doesn’t let your boyfriend wait too long atdownstairs. As a boy, trying to be more careful about the tiny change of yourgirl friend. Each of the lovers should learn to think in the standing ofopposite one, then you will understand why your lover behave in that way.
Further more, communication. Most relationships go awry because both parties inthe relationship assume their partner would automatically know what they arefeeling. Instead, why not try to tell him how you feel? Communication is thekey to any relationship.
Sometimes love is a magic thing, youcan’t handle it very well. I believe that if you love with your heart and soul,you will get a harvest in love.

i am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. i never graduated from college. truth be told, this is the closest i've ever gotten to a college graduation.
today i want to tell you three stories from my life. that's it. no big deal. just three stories.
the first story is about connecting the dots.
i dropped out of reed college after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before i really quit. so why did i drop out?
it started before i was born. my biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. she felt very strongly that i should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. except that when i popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. so my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "we have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" they said: "of course." my biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. she refused to sign the final adoption papers. she only relented a few months later when my parents promised that i would someday go to college.
and 17 years later i did go to college. but i naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. after six months, i couldn't see the value in it. i had no idea what i wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. and here i was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. so i decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out ok. it was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions i ever made. the minute i dropped out i could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
it wasn't all romantic. i didn't have a dorm room, so i slept on the floor in friends' rooms, i returned coke bottles for the 5 deposits to buy food with, and i would walk the 7 miles across town every sunday night to get one good meal a week at the hare krishna temple. i loved it. and much of what i stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. let me give you one example: reed college at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. because i had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, i decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. i learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. it was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and i found it fascinating.
none of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. but ten years later, when we were designing the first macintosh computer, it all came back to me. and we designed it all into the mac. it was the first computer with beautiful typography. if i had never dropped in on that single course in college, the mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. and since windows just copied the mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. if i had never dropped out, i would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when i was in college. but it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. you have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. this approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
my second story is about love and loss.
i was lucky – i found what i loved to do early in life. woz and i started apple in my parents garage when i was 20. we worked hard, and in 10 years apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. we had just released our finest creation - the macintosh - a year earlier, and i had just turned 30. and then i got fired. how can you get fired from a company you started?
well, as apple grew we hired someone who i thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. but then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. when we did, our board of directors sided with him. so at 30 i was out. and very publicly out. what had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
i really didn't know what to do for a few months. i felt that i had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that i had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. i met with david packard and bob noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. i was a very public failure, and i even thought about running away from the valley. but something slowly began to dawn on me – i still loved what i did. the turn of events at apple had not changed that one bit. i had been rejected, but i was still in love. and so i decided to start over.
i didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. the heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. it freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
during the next five years, i started a company named next, another company named pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, toy story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. in a remarkable turn of events, apple bought next, i retuned to apple, and the technology we developed at next is at the heart of apple's current renaissance. and laurene and i have a wonderful family together.
i'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if i hadn't been fired from apple. it was awful tasting medicine, but i guess the patient needed it.
sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. don't lose faith. i'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that i loved what i did.
you've got to find what you love. and that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you haven't found it yet, keep looking. don't settle. as with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. and, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. so keep looking until you find it. don't settle.
my third story is about death.
when i was 17, i read a quote that went something like: "if you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." it made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, i have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "if today were the last day of。
Hello, everyone! My name is “eye pen”. I am not a common pen. I am theprotector of students’ eyes. It is said that nowadays many, many children arewearing glasses. So I have been invented. I belong to Nancy. She is very anxiousbecause most of her friends become shortsighted. Ha ha! Then one day she had agood idea. She invented me. I don’t want to make her disappointed. I need to beresponsible to all the children.
You see, my body will turn red when you use me for over 30 minutes. It is awarning. And you should have a rest. In my head, there is a thermostat. Whenstudents use me to write, I’ll turn yellow when their heads are too close to thedesk. It is also a warning. Then the students should raise their heads.
I am so happy that students take me to school every day. I will be a goodeye protector and make students all have a good writing habit so that the numberof shortsighted students will be reduced.
