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。

Last night, I watched a tennis game, it was the US open, because there wasa Chinese female player came to the semi-final, so I stayed up to watched thegame. Unluckily, she was injured twice, though she still wanted to finish thegame, her body situation did not allow her to do so. Her insistence moved somany audience, they gave her the biggest applause.

The power of insistence is great, it will help you set free your potentialand keep move on. Just for the players, they will face all kinds of incidencesnow and then, but the will to insist will make them finish the game. Sometimes,people win the game not because of their excellent skills, but their strongwill. Those who can stick on to the final line will win people’s applause.

What’s more, when people insist to finish the game, it is the respect thatthey show to their opponents. Their spirit deserves people’s applause.Insistence is a merit, we should keep it, no matter what we do, we must rememberto insist.

Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .

Whether 60 of 26 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .

When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.

That?s all !

One philosopher said, " the dream has gone many ways, wake up or in bed."it vividly tells us a truth: people can't lie in the dream of ideal ,people not only want to have an ideal, but also bold fantasy, but also want towork hard to do, lying in the ideal waiting for a new start, if not only in thedistant future, even have will ents, are you also wandering in thedream of ideal?

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.

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。

Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”.

I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.

We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.

A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago.

Confidence,which is not only the faith in your abilities, but also the faith of pursuit of firm target in yourself, is the first secret of success. With it, you can go toward the shore of victory. When at a low ebb of the Chinese revolution, Mao Zedong believed that "a single spark can start a prairie fire". ChenYi believed "repeated action can not take off" he was confident. In short,

self-confidence refers to the navigation towards victory, as is the driving force of progress.

Inferior tends to look at the advantages of others too much, overweight, and this is a lack of understanding of their strengths. Someone who has so heavy psychological pressure makes himself passive. Inferior psychological barrier limits the development of ability, making them lose the chance of success, ultimately nothing. Humble and out of the shadow, there must be sunny days ahead! In both the "thousand goddess of mercy" dancing miracle of the spotlight, the actors are in the faith and destiny of the strong, overcoming the inferiority, their performance won the audience's warm applause, deeply loved by people. Overcoming self-abased and developing confidence is our inevitable choice. Conceit and inferiority are extreme psychological. Swellheads smug after some achievements, even defiant, arrogance. These people even had made some

achievements, but it was just a flash in the pan. Xiang yu in the struggle played

a great role，but temporary military advantage made him blind. The results had been defeated by Liu Bang, the former hero. At last Xiang Yu committed suicide by Wujiang river .

We want to believe in ourselves, but not conceited. I do not give up. Choose confidence, overcome being self-abased, and being away from the ego, which is the requirement of the new century, and is the pursuit of perfect personality. "Talk about heroes, you can find someone today", MAO Zedong was full of self-confidence, who will always inspire us to move forward.

as you slowly open your eyes, look around , notice where the light comes into your room; listen carefully, see if there are new sounds you can recognize; feel with your body and spirit, and see if you can sense the freshness in the air. yes, yes, yes, it’s a new day, it’s a different day, and it’s a bright day! and most

importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level! you know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and committed! and you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!

you will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and asking new questions. you will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take. you will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. you will never succumb to challenges of hardships. you will never waver in your pursuit of excellence. after all,you are the best, and you deserve the best!

as your coach and friend, i can assure you the door to all the best things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your hand. you must do your part, you must faithfully follow

the plans you make and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must never fear. i know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!

now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out: i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed! i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed! i must do it! i can do it! i will do it! i will succeed!

When I was in my 20s， I saw my very first psychotherapy client。 I was a Ph。D。 student in clinical psychology at Berkeley。 She was a 26—year—old woman named Alex。 Now Alex walked into her first session wearing jeans and a big slouchy top， and she dropped onto the couch in my office and kicked off her flats and told me she was there to talk about guy problems。 Now when I heard this， I was so relieved。 My classmate got an arsonist for her first client。 （Laughter） And I got a twentysomething who wanted to talk about boys。 This I thought I could handle。

But I didn't handle it。 With the funny stories that Alex would bring to session， it was easy for me just to nod my head while we kicked the can down the road。 "Thirty's the new 20，" Alex would say， and as far as I could tell， she was right。 Work happened later， marriage happened later， kids happened later， even death happened later。 Twentysomethings like Alex and I had nothing but time。

But before long， my supervisor pushed me to push Alex about her love life。 I pushed back。

I said， "Sure， she's dating down， she's sleeping with a knucklehead， but it's not like she's going to marry the guy。"

And then my supervisor said， "Not yet， but she might marry the next one。 Besides， the best time to work on Alex's marriage is before she has one。"

That's what psychologists call an "Aha！" moment。 That was the moment I realized， 30 is not the new 20。 Yes， people settle down later than they used to， but that didn't make Alex's 20s a developmental downtime。 That made Alex's 20s a developmental sweet spot， and we were sitting there blowing it。 That was when I realized that this sort of benign neglect was a real problem， and it had real consequences， not just for Alex and her love life but for the careers and the families and the futures of twentysomethings everywhere。

There are 50 million twentysomethings in the United States right now。 We're talking about 15 percent of the population， or 100 percent if you consider that no one's getting through adulthood without going through their 20s first。

Raise your hand if you're in your 20s。 I really want to see some twentysomethings here。 Oh， yay！ Y'all's awesome。 If you work with twentysomethings， you love a twentysomething， you're losing sleep over twentysomethings， I want to see — Okay。 Awesome， twentysomethings really matter。

So I specialize in twentysomethings because I believe that every single one of those 50 million twentysomethings deserves to know what psychologists， sociologists， neurologists and fertility specialists already know： that claiming your 20s is one of the simplest， yet most transformative， things you can do for work， for love， for your happiness， maybe even for the world。

This is not my opinion。 These are the facts。 We know that 80 percent of life's most defining moments take place by age 35。 That means that eight out of 10 of the decisions and experiences and "Aha！" moments that make your life what it is will have happened by your mid—30s。 People who are over 40， don't panic。 This crowd is going to be fine， I think。 We know that the first 10 years of a career has an exponential impact on how much money you're going to earn。 We know that more than half of Americans are married or are living with or dating their future partner by 30。 We know that the brain caps off its second and last growth spurt in your 20s as it rewires itself for adulthood， which means that whatever it is you want to change about yourself， now is the time to change it。 We know that personality changes more during your 20s than at any other time in life， and we know that female fertility peaks at age 28， and things get tricky after age 35。 So your 20s are the time to educate yourself about your body and your options。

So when we think about child development， we all know that the first five years are a critical period for language and attachment in the brain。 It's a time when your ordinary， day—to—day life has an inordinate impact on who you will become。 But what we hear less about is that there's such a thing as adult development， and our 20s are that critical period of adult development。

But this isn't what twentysomethings are hearing。 Newspapers talk about the changing timetable of adulthood。 Researchers call the 20s an extended adolescence。 Journalists coin silly nicknames for twentysomethings like "twixters" and "kidults。" It's true。 As a culture， we have trivialized what is actually the defining decade of adulthood。

Leonard Bernstein said that to achieve great things， you need a plan and not quite enough time。 Isn't that true？ So what do you think happens when you pat a twentysomething on the head and you say， "You have 10 extra years to start your life"？ Nothing happens。 You have robbed that person of his urgency and ambition， and absolutely nothing happens。

And then every day， smart， interesting twentysomethings like you or like your sons and daughters come into my office and say things like this： "I know my boyfriend's no good for me， but this relationship doesn't count。 I'm just killing time。" Or they say， "Everybody says as long as I get started on a career by the time I'm 30， I'll be fine。"

But then it starts to sound like this： "My 20s are almost over， and I have nothing to show for myself。 I had a better résumé the day after I graduated from college。"

And then it starts to sound like this： "Dating in my 20s was like musical chairs。 Everybody was running around and having fun， but then sometime around 30 it was like the music turned off and everybody started sitting down。 I didn't want to be the only one left standing up， so sometimes I think I married my husband because he was the closest chair to me at 30。"

Where are the twentysomethings here？ Do not do that。

Okay， now that sounds a little flip， but make no mistake， the stakes are very high。 When a lot has been pushed to your 30s， there is enormous thirtysomething pressure to jump—start a career， pick a city， partner up， and have two or three kids in a much shorter period of time。 Many of these things are incompatible， and as research is just starting to show， simply harder and more stressful to do all at once in our 30s。

The post—millennial midlife crisis isn't buying a red sports car。 It's realizing you can't have that career you now want。 It's realizing you can't have that child you now want， or you can't give your child a sibling。 Too many thirtysomethings and fortysomethings look at themselves， and at me， sitting across the room， and say about their 20s， "What was I doing？ What was I thinking？"

I want to change what twentysomethings are doing and thinking。

Here's a story about how that can go。 It's a story about a woman named Emma。 At 25， Emma came to my office because she was， in her words， having an identity crisis。 She said she thought she might like to work in art or entertainment， but she hadn't decided yet， so she'd spent the last few years waiting tables instead。 Because it was cheaper， she lived with a boyfriend who displayed his temper more than his ambition。 And as hard as her 20s were， her early life had been even harder。 She often cried in our sessions， but then would collect herself by saying， "You can't pick your family， but you can pick your friends。"

Well one day， Emma comes in and she hangs her head in her lap， and she sobbed for most of the hour。 She'd just bought a new address book， and she'd spent the morning filling in her many contacts， but then she'd been left staring at that empty blank that comes after the words "In case of emergency， please call 。。。 。" She was nearly hysterical when she looked at me and said， "Who's going to be there for me if I get in a car wreck？ Who's going to take care of me if I have cancer？"

Now in that moment， it took everything I had not to say， "I will。" But what Emma needed wasn't some therapist who really， really cared。 Emma needed a better life， and I knew this was her chance。 I had learned too much since I first worked with Alex to just sit there while Emma's defining decade went parading by。

So over the next weeks and months， I told Emma three things that every twentysomething， male or female， deserves to hear。

First， I told Emma to forget about having an identity crisis and get some identity capital。 By get identity capital， I mean do something that adds value to who you are。 Do something that's an investment in who you might want to be next。 I didn't know the future of Emma's career， and no one knows the future of work， but I do know this： Identity capital begets identity capital。 So now is the time for that cross—country job， that internship， that startup you want to try。 I'm not discounting twentysomething exploration here， but I am discounting exploration that's not supposed to count， which， by the way， is not exploration。 That's procrastination。 I told Emma to explore work and make it count。

Second， I told Emma that the urban tribe is overrated。 Best friends are great for giving rides to the airport， but twentysomethings who huddle together with like—minded peers limit who they know， what they know， how they think， how they speak， and where they work。 That new piece of capital， that new person to date almost always comes from outside the inner circle。 New things come from what are called our weak ties， our friends of friends of friends。 So yes， half of twentysomethings are un— or under—employed。 But half aren't， and weak ties are how you get yourself into that group。 Half of new jobs are never posted， so reaching out to your neighbor's boss is how you get that un—posted job。 It's not cheating。 It's the science of how information spreads。

Last but not least， Emma believed that you can't pick your family， but you can pick your friends。 Now this was true for her growing up， but as a twentysomething， soon Emma would pick her family when she partnered with someone and created a family of her own。 I told Emma the time to start picking your family is now。 Now you may be thinking that 30 is actually a better time to settle down than 20， or even 25， and I agree with you。 But grabbing whoever you're living with or sleeping with when everyone on Facebook starts walking down the aisle is not progress。 The best time to work on your marriage is before you have one， and that means being as intentional with love as you are with work。 Picking your family is about consciously choosing who and what you want rather than just making it work or killing time with whoever happens to be choosing you。

So what happened to Emma？ Well， we went through that address book， and she found an old roommate's cousin who worked at an art museum in another state。 That weak tie helped her get a job there。 That job offer gave her the reason to leave that live—in boyfriend。 Now， five years later， she's a special events planner for museums。 She's married to a man she mindfully chose。 She loves her new career， she loves her new family， and she sent me a card that said， "Now the emergency contact blanks don't seem big enough。"

Now Emma's story made that sound easy， but that's what I love about working with twentysomethings。 They are so easy to help。 Twentysomethings are like airplanes just leaving LAX， bound for somewhere west。 Right after takeoff， a slight change in course is the difference between landing in Alaska or Fiji。 Likewise， at 21 or 25 or even 29， one good conversation， one good break， one good TED Talk， can have an enormous effect across years and even generations to come。

So here's an idea worth spreading to every twentysomething you know。 It's as simple as what I learned to say to Alex。 It's what I now have the privilege of saying to twentysomethings like Emma every single day： Thirty is not the new 20， so claim your adulthood， get some identity capital， use your weak ties， pick your family。 Don't be defined by what you didn't know or didn't do。 You're deciding your life right now。 Thank you。

If we can speak English well,we will have more chance to succeed.Because more and more people have taken notice of it,the number of the people who go to learn English has increased at a high speed.

But for myself,I learn English not only because of its importance and its usefulness,but also because of my love for it.When I learn English, I can feel a different way of thinking which gives me more room to touch the world.When I read English novels,I can feel the pleasure from the book which is different from reading the translation.When I speak English, I can feel the confident from my words.When I write English,I can see the beauty which is not the same as our Chinese...

I love English,it gives me a colorful dream.I hope I can travel around the world one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people from different contries.I can see many places of great intrests.I dream that I can go to London,because it is the birth place of English.

I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well.

If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too.

I am sure that I will realize my dream one day!

Thank you!

亲爱的老师，同学们：

我很高兴可以在这个课堂上做一次演讲。这一次，我想谈谈英语。我的话题是我爱英语。

正如每个人所知，英语在今天十分重要。它已经被应用到世界的各个角落。它已经成为商业上最为通用的一门语言并广泛的用于国际贸易。如果我们能说好英语，我们就有更多的机会成功。因为越来越多的人注意到这一点，学英语的人数正在已很高的速度增长。

但是对我而言，我学英语不仅仅因为它的重要性以及它的实用性，更是因为我喜爱英语。当我学英语时，我可以体会到一种不同的思维方式，它可以给我更多接触世界的空间。当我读英语小说时，我能感受到不同于阅读翻译文的快乐。当我说英语时，我可以感到自信。当我写英语时，我能够感到不同于汉语的那种美

我爱英语，它给了我一个色彩斑斓的梦。我希望有朝一日我可以畅游世界，用我流利的英语，我可以和世界各地的人交友。我能看到许多的名胜。我希望我能够到伦敦去，因为那里是英语的故乡。

我也希望用我流利的英语来将我们的名胜介绍给说英语的朋友，我希望他们可以像我们一样的爱我们的国家。

我知道，罗马不是一天筑成的。（成功需要日积月累。）我相信在持续不断的努力学习下，总有一天我可以拥有一口流利的英语。

如果你想被爱，你就应该学着去爱他人。所以我相信我对英语的爱定将换来它对我的爱。

我相信总有一天我会实现我的梦！

谢谢！

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!

The future can be anything we want to make

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.

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 。

Good morning teachers and fellow students:

Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .

Whether 60 of 26 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .

When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.

Thank you!

Be there just to make up the number

During the Warring States Period (475-221BC), the King of the State of Qi was very fond of listening to yu ensembles. He often got together 300 yu players to form a grand music. The king treated his musician very well. A man named Nanguo heard about that and he managed to become a member of the band, even though he wan not good at playing the instrument at all. Whenever the band played for the king, Nanguo just stood in the line and pretended to play. Nobody realized he was making no sound at all. As a result, he enjoyed his treatment just as the other musician did. When the king died, his son became the new ruler who also liked the music played on the yu. However, he preferred solos so that he ordered the musicians to play the yu one by one. Therefore, Nanguo had to run out of the palace.

the idiom "Be there just to make up the number" is used to mock someone who passes for a specialist. You can also hear people saying it about themselves to show their modesty.

滥竽充数

战国时，齐宣王喜欢听竽，通常是三百人的大合奏。因为他给予乐师非常优厚的待遇，所以一个叫南郭的人尽管并不擅长吹竽，也设法混进乐队。当乐队演奏时，他就站在队伍里假装也在吹。没有人注意到其实他连一点声音也没吹出来，所以南郭也享受到和其他乐师一样的待遇。宣王死后，他的儿子继承了王位。他也喜欢听竽，可是他喜欢听独奏，让乐师一个个吹给他听，于是南郭不得不逃跑了。

"滥竽充数"这个成语用来嘲笑那些没有真正才干，混在行家里的人。 人们有时也用"滥竽充数"来表示自谦。

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Ysidro.He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money foryouth at risk programs.

The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, "I want to tell youwhy I let Jack use my house. It all goes back to a story about a young man whowas the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable,race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As aresult, the boy"s high school career was continually interrupted. When he was asenior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when hegrew up.

"That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of somedayowning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drewa diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, thestables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch.

"He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day hehanded it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On thefront page was a large red F with a note that read, `See me after class."

"The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, `Whydid I receive an F?"

"The teacher said, `This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you.You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources.Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You haveto pay for the original breeding stock and later you"ll have to pay large studfees. There"s no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, `If you willrewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider yourgrade.’

"The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his fatherwhat he should do. His father said, `Look, son, you have to make up your ownmind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’

"Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the samepaper, making no changes at all. He stated, `You can keep theF and I"ll keep my dream.

Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, "I tell you this storybecause you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace."He added, "The best part of the story is that two summers ago that sameschoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week." When theteacher was leaving, he said, `Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I wasyour teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole alot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up onyours.’"

Don"t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what.

关于英语励志演讲稿三分钟 篇30

The future can be anything we want to make

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。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。
