Our character, basically, is a composite of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny,” the maxim goes.
Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a strand of it everyday and soon it cannot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But I also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous commitment.
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were transfixed as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts literally had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half a million miles.
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply imbedded habitual tendencies such as procrastination, impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that violate basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new dimension.
Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the cohesiveness and order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.

Dear teacher and classmates:
I am very glad to make a speech here in this class again! This time, I'd like to talk something about English.
I love English. English language is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. Learning English makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
When I was seven, my mother sent me to an English school. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, because the president Washington is my idol. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and Anshan.
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.

good morning/evening/afternoon, ladies and gentlemen :
today, my speech is about talents,in my opionion, talents are indispensable in nowadays society. as is known to all that the fight among countries is actually the fight among talents.
first, i'd like to define the word"talent" in my idea, a talent is one person who is good at or expertised in some or multiple areas. nowadays, as the world developing goes on , if one country want to rank top or do a good job in the world, the country must have many talents.for example, china, the biggest developing country in the world, in the past 100 years, is always invaded by other countries, why ,the reason is that china at that time had not so many talents. if they had anti-intrusion leader talents in the war, needless to say,they would have beat those big powers.if they had talents in weapons manufacturing, nodody dares to provoke us.however, nowadays, it's a totally different situation, china has become powerfulin all over the world, why ? because there are many talents serving the country, the civilians become more and more literated.more and more people go to university,more and more people come to receive further education. so what is that in return,talents in army protect our country from invasion, talents in commerce help make our economy keep in improving, talents in aerospace make the world see chinese manned spacecraft flying. talents in sports make china rank the first in the olympic games......
to sum up, talents will play a more and more impoetant role in the world, if one country intends to flourish, he must foster talents as many as they can ,that's all,thank you.

Everyone has a lot of friends and he must have his own friendship as well.But usually only when you get into trouble, will you know what the truefriendship is. The friend in need is the friend in deed. Only the real friendswill help you when you are in trouble. If you establish your friendship when youare in trouble, make it go on forever.
每个人都有很多朋友，也一定有属于他自己的友谊。但是，通常只有当你遇到困难时，你才能知道什么是真正的友谊。患难见真情，只有真正的朋友会在你身处困境时帮助你。如果你在逆境中将友谊建立，那么请让它继续到永远。
Maybe a boy and a girl become good friends. They feel very happy when theyare each other, but other students may think that they have fallen in love. Ifyou were one of them, what would you do? If I were in that position, I would notcare about what anyone else may say. I only care about her feeling. We shouldknow that our friendship is pure without anything bad mixed. Friendship is veryimportant for everyone, so I will let my friendship last forever.
也许一个女孩和一个男孩成为了好朋友，他们在一起会感到很幸福。但是，其他同学会认为他们相爱了。如果你是其中之一，你会怎么办?如果是我，我将不会在乎别人说什么，我只在乎她的感觉。我们应该明白，我们的友谊是纯洁的，是不含任何杂质的。友谊对每个人都很重要，所以我会让我们的友谊继续下去。
Everyone should know that he can not lose his opposite sex friends. If you donot make friends with your opposite sex classmates, then you have already losthalf of the friends. So you can make friends with all your classmates, and don'tbe shy. You should also pay enough attention to the friendship that you havealready established. Don’t undermine it unless you want to hurt him. You shouldnever try to do so, for if you do that you will lose much in emotion.
每个人都应该明白你不能失去异性的朋友如果你不与异性同学交朋友，那么你就已经失去了一半朋友。所以你可以与你所有的同学交朋友，不要害羞。你同样也应该重视你已经建立的友谊，不要破坏它，除非你想伤害他。不过，请不要去尝试，如果你这么做你会失去太多的感情。
Please cherish everything that you have already possessed. Maybe you don'tcare about it now. But when you lose it, you will find that how important itis.
请珍惜你所拥有的一切也许你现在并不在乎，但当你失去时你会发现它是多么的重要。
Friendship
友谊
Every one of us, rich or poor, should at least have one or two good friends. My friends will listen to me when I want to speak, will wipe my eyes when I cry, will take care of me when I am sick, and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life.
我们每个人,不论富裕还是贫穷,至少应该有一个或两个好朋友。我的朋友会听我说,如果我想说话,要擦去我的眼睛当我哭泣,会照顾我在我生病时,我的朋友将与我一起肩并肩在这人生旅程。
Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be. It is also like a cup of tea. When we are thirsty, it will be our best choice, but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves, it is also the most fragrant drink.
友谊是一种财宝在我们的生活。它实际上是像一瓶酒,越久保留,这将是更香甜。它就像一杯茶。当我们口渴时,这将是对我们最好的选择,但当我们有足够的时间去玩得很开心的,它也是最芬芳的饮料。
All of us have to spare some time for personal lives. We have to find the chance to express our emotion and love. When staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. We can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry to-gether. I should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment of our lives.
我们所有的人都要花点时间来个人的生活。我们必须找到机会来表达我们的感情和爱。当住在我们的朋友,我们可以放松自己完全。我们可以做任何我们想要的,我们能一起大声笑,一起交谈,甚至哭泣下。我应该说,是我们最好的朋友一起是最精彩的时刻,我们的生活。
As we know, we would feel lonely if we didn't even have a friend. But it doesn't mean we could depend on our friends all the time. There is a famous motto saying that “A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding, but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature.” It is really true. We have to work hard together with our friends, encourage each other and help each other. When we receive love and friendship, we should repay as much as we can.
正如我们所知道的,我们会感到寂寞,如果我们还没有一个朋友。但这并不意味着我们可以依靠我们的朋友。有个著名的格言说:“一个朋友就像一个棉花棉丝被子,但真正的东西,是使你暖和是你自己的温度。“这是真的。我们必须努力同我们的朋友,互相激励,互相帮助。当我们能收到更多的爱与友谊,我们应该偿还高达就可以了。
Finally, let's pray together now that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship be-tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts
最后,让我们一起祈祷了,有一天,我们都能找到我们想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友谊的真正左右我们的生活了。让我们一起祈祷友谊之花却成为我们的朋友,我们将永远绽放鲜艳的在我们的心中
helping every american with autism achieve their full potential is one of this administration’s top priorities. at the u.s. department of health and human services, we continue to strive to meet the complex needs of all people with autism spectrum disorders (asd) and their families. while there is no cure, early intervention is critical and can greatly improve a child’s development.
perhaps the biggest step we’ve taken to support those affected by autism and their families happened over a year ago, with the signing of the affordable care act. now, new insurance plans are required to cover autism screening and developmental assessments for children at no cost to parents. insurers will also no longer be allowed to deny children coverage for a pre-existing condition such as asd or to set arbitrary lifetime or annual limits on benefits.
also, thanks to the new law, young adults are allowed to stay on their family health insurance until they turn 26. for a young adult with autism spectrum disorder and their family, that means peace of mind. it means more flexibility, more options, and more opportunity to reach their full potential.
ultimately, there is more support for americans with autism than ever before. this means more promise of new breakthroughs that will help us understand autism even better. but in order to continue meeting the needs of people with autism, the combating autism act must be fully reauthorized. we still have a long way to go. working collaboratively with important partners, the affordable care act and the combating autism act will allow us to continue important research and develop and refine vital treatments.
there are still many unknowns. however, one thing is certain. we will continue to work harder than ever to find solutions and provide support to individuals with asd and their families. together, we can help reduce disparities and allow everyone to actualize their greatest potential.

Good afternoon ，ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! To begin with ,I want to ask a question .Does everybody dream a good dream last night? Actually ,today I want to talk about dream with you. Of course, What I want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream—— about life.
Everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. Dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners(水手),we can chart our course by them. With the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.With the dream, there is hope,With hope, we have the strength to fight.
I have a dream: To be a doctor.，because doctor may relieve the pain of patients. May let the human change the health. At the same time, I believed that, those who help others may be able to obtain joyfully. Therefore, I hoped in the near future ,I might be a doctor.
But I know，life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead .
Young!Fortunately, I am young now. Just due to it, I know that nothing is impossible.I firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. If I can't realize my dream,it result from that I haven't work harder enough and I won't find other excuses. If no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. If you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
"My breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in Kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains." At some time in the past I also had am bitious words and I had some achievements. Each achievement results from my hard work. I always believe that "If you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder." In some extent, the dream is the hope. If you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
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. Let's--- move ----out!
Thank you for your listening!
Computers play an important role in the modern world. Today they are used in many areas of human activities, such as business, industry, science and education. I'm a primary school student. I always search for information on my PC, make PPT or type article with word software and sometimes listen to music, play games on the computer in the weekends. Sometimes I write e-mails to my friends on the computer, too. I often chat with people on-line. I usually do my homework on the computer, too, it's very easy.
I also enjoying watching cartoons on-line, because I can find my favorite cartoons easily, when I watching TV, I should wait the advertisement and watch the cartoons on time. But in computer, I can watch my favorite cartoons any time, and needn't wait for advertisements.I seldom buy things on the computer, because I don't know it. I sometimes go to the forums on the weekends, there are many people, and it's very interesting.
How about you, my friend?
电脑扮演着重要的角色在现代世界。今天他们被用在许多领域的人类活动,如商业、工业、科学和教育。我是一个小学学生。我总是在我的电脑搜索信息,制作PPT或类型的文章与词软件,有时听音乐,玩游戏在电脑上在周末。有时我在电脑上写电子邮件给我的朋友,。我经常与人在线聊天。我通常在电脑上做作业,也很简单。
我也喜欢看漫画在线,因为我可以很容易找到我最喜欢的漫画,我看电视的时候,我应该等待广告和看漫画。但在电脑,我可以随时看我最喜欢的漫画,不必等待广告。我很少在电脑上买东西,因为我不知道。在周末我有时去论坛,有很多人,很有趣。

that’s all. thank you.
Good evening, Ladies and Gentlemen:
I’d like to start with a group of pictures.
"Modern and advanced"? This society forgets, and ignores the other two thirds of human beings. It's far from the ideal! We call ideal as a utopian, a place where reality does not exist. A few people still look forward to the ideals. We make fun of them, considering they are naive. Will we still be content to live in such a society, if misfortune drops to us? No! Of cause not!
When we feel the warmth of the sun, these people, endure great sorrows and pains. Can we imagine that? They are our brother and sisters!
Facing them, will we still complain about our own misfortune?
Facing them, will we still have the mood shouting for our own freedom? Facing them, will we still want to have more and more unnecessary stuff?
They are unable to meet their needs, even the basic needs of survival! Everyone, as a member of humanity, shouldn't feel ashamed? Our luxury deprived their lives, our indifference violated our soul, and our barbarity destroyed human civilization!
What's the ideal society? It's a society no one worries about their living, a society no one is refused from education, a society everyone can pursue his/her own happiness! The ideal society is filled with love, joy and kindness. In that society, we can touch the other's hearts, we can share our dreams and most important, we can just be the true men!
Let's break the ethnic divide, bridge the gap between rich and poor, hand in hand, to build a Great wall, protecting us from evil; to construct a steady bridge, connecting reality to the ideal society! Let's pursue for that, that's the only way to the bright future! They are watching us! Thank you!
Smoking is a greater cause of death and disability than any single disease, says the World Health Organisation.
According to their figures, it is responsible for approximately five million deaths worldwide every year.
Tobacco smoking is a known or probable cause of approximately 25 diseases, and even the WHO says that its impact on world health is not fully assessed.
Heart attack and stroke
UK studies show that smokers in their 30s and 40s are five times more likely to have a heart attack than non-smokers.
Tobacco contributes to the hardening of the arteries, which can then become blocked and starve the heart of bloodflow, causing the attack.
Often, smokers who develop this will require complex and risky heart bypass surgery.
If you smoke for a lifetime, there is a 50% chance that your eventual death will be smoking-related - half of all these deaths will be in middle age.
Smoking also increases the risk of having a stroke.
Lung problems
Another primary health risk associated with smoking are lung cancer, which kills more than 20,000 people in the UK every year.
US studies have shown that men who smoke increase their chances of dying from the disease by more than 22 times.
Women who smoke increase this risk by nearly 12 times.
Lung cancer is a difficult cancer to treat - long term survival rates are poor.
Smoking also increases the risk of oral, uterine, liver, kidney, bladder, stomach, and cervical cancers, and leukaemia.
Another health problem associated with tobacco is emphysema, which, when combined with chronic bronchitis, produces chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
he lung damage which causes emphysema is irreversible, and makes it extremely difficult to breathe.
Harm to children
Smoking in pregnancy greatly increases the risk of miscarriage, is associated with lower birthweight babies, and inhibited child development.
Smoking by parents following the birth is linked to sudden infant death syndrome, or cot death, and higher rates of infant respiratory illness, such as bronchitis, colds, and pneumonia.
Nicotine, an ingredient of tobacco, is listed as an addictive substance by the US authorities.
Although the health risks of smoking are culmulative, giving up can yield health benefits regardless of the age of the patient, or the length of time they have been smoking.
By 2020, the WHO expects the worldwide death toll to reach 10 million, causing 17.7% of all deaths in developed countries.
There are believed to be 1.1 billion smokers in the world, 800 million of them in developing countries.
No thought exactly, exactly when to start, has set foot on the road of youth, young no longer time, started the different thoughts and mood. More moment of time, water out eventually must stop, forever all, no longer believe that anything is immortal.
For a long time, we are always in the wandering and hesitation, the fork in the road of life, can not find the way forward, have no one to give you direction, pain, sorrow, to follow. We sighed with emotion, always feel that, because of youth, life becomes muddy; Because of the youth, we become decadent disconsolate. Because of the youth, we couldn't see the future.
However, should not is the youth.
Youth is the pronoun of surging blood, is permeated with enthusiasm, is hard work, try is endless. Youth is amenable to hone but can't afford to spend, withstand development but can't afford to waste. All day long malaise, the eyes see is decadent, what's the point? More complaints, discontent, and can change what? Just can make oneself feel living very tired very heavy, and then again the complaints, discontent, so, a vicious cycle.
In fact, we are young, what is impossible! Had so many dreams, is this in this great good youth, to strive, to strive, to an opportunity to achieve all you want. As long as bravely forward, efforts to pay, even if to finally failed to gain what you want, in the process of experience have you enough to treasure memories.
Youth, give you, my life only once, prime not heavy, once a day morning, when encouraged in time, time and tide wait for no man. Is most worthy of being highly treasure the value of each and every day, grasp today, grasp tomorrow, welcome the first ray of sunshine every day. Youth time is priceless, every minute counts.
Most of the time will feel tired, helpless, not a lot of passion. Whether because our heart is no longer young, everything is see through? No, dominate the world is you, give up the world is still you. Haze weather mood diary or beautiful, are you in writing.
Perhaps, in this materialistic, false prosperity of society, do you want to just flatly light life, "otherwise, serene life", do not want to pursue in the repeated, do an ordinary person. We can't go too one-sided evaluation says this is right or wrong, but ordinary doesn't mean mediocrity. We can be ordinary, but can not mediocrity.
Once, many years later, when to do, say, always feel that is so childish. Young ignorance, is the young dream, the wasted years filled with youthful dribs and drabs. May be sad, may be sad. Want to say is, do not experience wind and rain, how see rainbow; Want to say is, don't give up, want to stay more has also is the scenery along the way. Want to say is, no matter what, all is the past, no need to go to with grief.
One day we will enter the adult, in the way of youth away. But please don't be sad, because leave is for better memories. Someone once said "life is like a one-way ticket to no return, no rehearsals, every game is live. Grasp every performance is the best to cherish life." When we looking back again, can say proudly: when we were young, we had struggled, and burned. Without regret to face yourself, face the future, never have regret!
没有确切地想过，到底是从何时开始，就已经踏上了青春的道路，年少的时光不再，开始了另一番的思想与心境。更多地须臾长叹：细水长流终须止，天长地久有尽时，不再相信有什么东西是永垂不朽的。
很长的一段时间，我们总是在徘徊、彷徨，人生的岔路口上，找不到前进的道路，没有能够给予你指导方向的人，痛苦、忧伤接踵而至。我们感叹着，总觉得，因为青春，生活变得泥泞不堪;因为青春，我们变得颓废惘然;因为青春，我们看不清未来。
可是，青春并不应该是这些的。
青春的代名词是澎湃的热血，是洋溢的热情，是努力的拼搏，是无尽的尝试。青春是经得起磨练但经不起消磨的，经得起开发却经不起挥霍。整日的萎靡不振，眼里看见的只是颓废，这些又有什么意义呢?再多的抱怨，再多的不满，又能够改变什么呢?只是会让自己觉得活的很累很沉重，然后再次的抱怨、不满，如此下去，恶性循环罢了。
其实，我们还年轻，有什么事情是不可能的!曾经那么多的梦想，正该乘着这大好的青春年华，去拼搏、去努力，给所有的梦想一次实现的机会。只要勇敢得向前，努力的付出，即使到最后没能够收获你想要的，过程中的经历也已经足够你去珍藏回忆的。
青春，只赋予你、我一生一次，盛年不重来，一日难再晨，及时当勉励，岁月不待人。最值得高度珍惜的莫过于每一天的价值，把握住今天把握住明天，迎来每天的第一缕阳光。青春时光无价，一刻千金。
很多时候都会觉得疲惫不堪、无可奈何，没有太多的激情。是否是因为我们的心已经不再年轻了，将一切都已经看透?不，主宰世界的是你，放弃世界的仍然是你。心情日记里天气的阴霾或风和日丽，其实都是你自己在撰写。
或许，在这物欲横流，虚假繁荣的社会里，你想要的只是平平淡淡的生活，“与世无争，恬淡一生”，不想在反反复复中追寻，只做一个平凡的人。我们不能过于片面的去评价说这是对是错，但是平凡并不意味着平庸。我们可以平凡，但绝不可以平庸。
很多年以后，回想起曾经做的事、说过的话，总会觉得是那么的幼稚。年幼的无知，少年的白日梦，蹉跎的岁月中充斥着青春的点点滴滴。或许会悲伤，或许会难过。想说的是，不经历风雨，怎能看见彩虹;想说的是，再多的不舍、留恋也已经是沿途的风景;想说的是，无论是什么，都已经是过去的了，没有必要再去纠结哀伤。
终有一天我们将会进入成年,在青春的路上渐行渐远。但请不要悲伤,因为离开是为了更好的回忆。有人曾说过“人生就像一张有去无回的单程车票，没有彩排，每一场都是现场直播。把握好每次演出便是对人生最好的珍惜。”当我们再次回首往事时，可以很自豪地说：当我们年轻时，我们奋斗过，尽情燃烧过。可以无悔地面对自己，面对未来，不曾有过遗憾!
justice story: "impeachment" is attended -- "is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations." we know about the huston plan. we know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office. we know that there was absolute complete direction on september 3rd when the president indicated that a surreptitious entry had been made in dr. fielding's office, after having met with mr. ehrlichman and mr. young. "protect their rights." "rescue their liberties from violation."
the carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."4 beginning shortly after the watergate break-in and continuing to the present time, the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors. moreover, the president has made public announcements and assertions bearing on the watergate case, which the evidence will show he knew to be false. these assertions, false assertions, impeachable, those who misbehave. those who "behave amiss or betray the public trust."
james madison again at the constitutional convention: "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution." the constitution charges the president with the task of taking care that the laws be faithfully executed, and yet the president has counseled his aides to commit perjury, willfully disregard the secrecy of grand jury proceedings, conceal surreptitious entry, attempt to compromise a federal judge, while publicly displaying his cooperation with the processes of criminal justice. "a president is impeachable if he attempts to subvert the constitution."
if the impeachment provision in the constitution of the united states will not reach the offenses charged here, then perhaps that 18th-century constitution should be abandoned to a 20th-century paper shredder.
has the president committed offenses, and planned, and directed, and acquiesced in a course of conduct which the constitution will not tolerate? that's the question. we know that. we know the question. we should now forthwith proceed to answer the question. it is reason, and not passion, which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.
i yield back the balance of my time, mr. Chairman.
Nothing is difficult if you put your heart on it. Nothing is easy if you don’t try your best.
We often hear people say, “Never give up.” This can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.
One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives.
Probably the greatest example of persistence is Abraham Lincoln. Born into poverty, Lincoln was faced with defeat throughout his life. He lost eight elections, twice failed in business and suffered a nervous breakdown.
He could have quit many times - but he didn't and because he didn't quit, he became one of the greatest presidents in the history of our country.
Lincoln was a champion and he never gave up.
In short, it is important that we don’t give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.Thank you very much!
如果你把你的心脏上没有什么是困难的。没有什么是容易的，如果你不尝试你最好的。
我们经常听到人们说：“永远不要放弃。”这可以鼓励决心的词与词。一个人谁相信他们将继续努力，不管经历多少次失败，达到到他的目标。在我看来，有决心的质量成功是有一个重要的之一。因此，我认为我们应该永不放弃。
原因之一是，如果我们太轻易放弃，就几乎无法完成任何事。这是很平常的我们在我们的一些新的第一次尝试失败了，所以我们不应感到气馁，应该再试一次。此外，如果我们总是放弃当我们失败，我们将无法发展新的技能和成长的人。另外一个原因，我们不应该放弃的是，我们可以从我们的错误中吸取教训，只有我们作出新的努力。如果我们不再试一次，我们吸取的教训是浪费。最后，我们应该永不放弃，因为当我们努力达到我们的目标，我们就会培养出自信，而这种自信将有助于我们在生活的其他领域中获得成功。
大概持续性的最大的例子就是林肯。出生在贫困家庭，林肯面临着他一生的失败。他输八大选，两次经商失败，并遭受了神经衰弱。
他可以放弃很多次 - 但他并没有因为他没有放弃，他成为我国历史上最伟大的总统之一。
林肯是一个冠军，他从来没有放弃过。
总之，这是我们努力追求目标时，不放弃是很重要的。无论我们最终还是没有成功，我们都会学到一些东西，而我们学什么会帮助我们变得更好，更有自信的人。此外，如果我们放弃，我们没有机会实现我们的目标，但如果我们继续努力，总有一个机会，我们会有成功的.非常感谢!
It's easiest to see this link between fear and the imagination in young children, whose fears are often extraordinarily vivid.
When I was a child, I lived in California, which is, you know, mostly a very nice place to live, but for me as a child, California could also be a little scary.
I remember how frightening it was to see the chandelier that hung above our dining table swing back and forth during every minor earthquake, and I sometimes couldn't sleep at night, terrified that the Big One might strike while we were sleeping.
And what we say about kids who have fears like that is that they have a vivid imagination. But at a certain point, most of us learn to leave these kinds of visions behind and grow up.
We learn that there are no monsters hiding under the bed, and not every earthquake brings buildings down. But maybe it's no coincidence that some of our most creative minds fail to leave these kinds of fears behind as adults.
Good morning everyone,today is my turn to the speech. Can Money BuyHappiness?Can money buy happiness? Different people have different opinions.Some think yes, while others hold the opposite.It is true that with enough moneyone can buy all the things one wants, and live a life of comfort and security.However, it is equally true that lack of money causes great distress. It is acommon view that "money is the root of all evil." The pursuit of money drivesmany people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot bebought with money, resulting in corrupt societies where everybody ismiserable.So, money does not necessarily mean happiness. It all depends on howit is used. If we make honest and sensible use of money, it can be astepping-stone to happiness l Although money cannot buy happiness, it can makehappiness possible if it is employed sensibly.
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, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I’d like to share it with all of you. Let’s show our right palms. We can see three
lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let’s make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in frront of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”
翻译：有人说“我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节,页数无限的”。我不知道谁写的这些话,但我一直很喜欢他们提醒人们,可以是任何我们想要的未来。我们都是农民的地位。我们若种下好种子,我们收获丰收。如果我们工厂什么都没有,我们什么也没收获。
我们年轻的时候。“如何度过青春?“这是一个有意义的问题。要回答这个问题,首先我要问“你怎么理解这个词的青年吗?“青春不是生命的一个阶段,它是一种心态。它不是红润的面颊,红色的嘴唇和柔软的膝盖。它的问题。它是生命的深泉的清新。
一个诗人说:“从一粒沙子看到一个世界,从一朵野花看到一个天堂,把无限放在你的手掌,永恒也就消融于一个时辰。几天前,我有机会听一个讲座。我学到了很多。我想与大家分享。让我们展示我们的右手掌。我们可以看到三个
行,展示我们的爱。职业和生活。我有一个短线的生活。你的呢?我想知道是否我们可以看到我们的未来。好吧,让我们做一个拳头。我们的未来在哪里?哪里是我们的爱,事业和生活?告诉我。是的,它是在我们的手中。这是在自己举行。
我们都希望未来会比过去更好。但是未来可以更好的自己。不要因为完结而哭,要为曾经发生而微笑。从过去,我们知道,生活是艰苦的,但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择我们的感觉,但我们可以选择。失败并不意味着你不拥有它,它意味着你应该换一种方式。失败并不意味着你应该放弃,它意味着你须更加努力。
就像我一开始说,“我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节,页数无限的”。过去的已经过去了。我们所做的任何事都不会改变它。但是未来是在我们面前。相信我们给世界,世界将给我们。从今天开始,我们是自己的主人,说出“我们是世界,我们是未来。”
now none of this is to say that social skills are unimportant, and i'm also not calling for the abolishing of teamwork at all. the same religions who send their sages off to lonely mountain tops also teach us love and trust. and the problems that we are facing today in fields like science and in economics are so vast and so complex that we are going to need armies of people coming together to solve them working together. but i am saying that the more freedom that we give introverts to be themselves, the more likely that they are to come up with their own unique solutions to these problems.
so now i'd like to share with you what's in my suitcase today. guess what? books. i have a suitcase full of books. here's margaret atwood, “cat's eye.“ here's a novel by milan kundera. and here's “the guide for the perplexed“ by maimonides. but these are not exactly my books. i brought these books with me because they were written by my grandfather's favorite authors.
my grandfather was a rabbi and he was a widower who lived alone in a small apartment in brooklyn that was my favorite place in the world when i was growing up, partly because it was filled with his very gentle, very courtly presence and partly because it was filled with books. i mean literally every table, every chair in this apartment had yielded its original function to now serve as a surface for swaying stacks of books. just like the rest of my family, my grandfather's favorite thing to do in the whole world was to read.
but he also loved his congregation, and you could feel this love in the sermons that he gave every week for the 62 years that he was a rabbi. he would takes the fruits of each week's reading and he would weave these intricate tapestries of ancient and humanist thought. and people would come from all over to hear him speak.
chinese restaurants have played an important role in american history, as a matter of fact. the cuban missile crisis was resolved in a chinese restaurant called yenching palace in washington, d.c., which unfortunately is closed now, and about to be turned into walgreen's. and the house that john wilkes booth planned the assassination of abraham lincoln is actually also now a chinese restaurant called wok 'n roll, on h street in washington.
and if you think about it, a lot of the foods that you think of or we think of or americans think of as chinese food are barely recognizable to chinese, for example: beef with broccoli, egg rolls, general tso's chicken, fortune cookies, chop suey, the take-out boxes.
so, the interesting question is, how do you go from fortune cookies being something that is japanese to being something that is chinese? well, the short answer is, we locked up all the japanese during world war ii, including those that made fortune cookies, so that's the time when the chinese moved in, kind of saw a market opportunity and took over.
