Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, with the developmet of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin, horns, teeth and meat.许多野生动物正面临绝种的危险,因为它们生活的环境发生了极大的变化。例如,随着城市的发展,杀虫剂的使用和严重的污染,他们的生活区域变得越来越狭小。许多野生动物,现在面临粮食危机。同时,人类正在屠杀野生动物只是为了获得它们的皮毛,皮肤,角,牙齿和肉。
In order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty. There fore, measures of the following should be taken: pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life, reserves.
为了保护生态资源,人们应该意识到任何物种的缺失,至少意味着知识资源和自然美的缺失。因此,本应采取以下措施:制订污染标准以降低有毒物质;严禁杀害某些稀有物种;应建立国家公园作为野生动物,保护区。
Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved.
我们只有采取一些有力措施,才能保护野生动物。
Saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems.....
everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have
experienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .
having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later
generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!
the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.so we must treasure it ,don't let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.

and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
Good afternoon ladies and Gentlemen,
I believe that humanism is about kindness and caring for people in need.
I believe the role of humanism in today’s technological world is to guide technological development to respond to human need in a benevolent way.
In 20xx I was in Yushu during that terrible earthquake. I experienced the full horror of buildings falling and people being trapped. I witnessed the quick response from modern technology when people inside yushu called people outside for help with their mobile phones. Very soon the whole world was responding whole heartedly. After only 5 hours, there was another sound- this time it was helicopters bringing doctors, medical supplies, and the facilities to evacuate the wounded to hospital.
Recent advances in earthquake detection and rescue technology have been developed in response to the need to save lives quickly.
Consider advances in green food technology, guided by the need for clean natural food and to protect the environment;
Advances in water conservation and purification, guided by the need for clean drinking water and for crops and livestock;
advances in delivering education to everyone, especially the use of video and the internet for distance learning;
advances in medicine, especially affordable medicine for AIDS sufferers in Africa;
and advances in building technology guided by the need to keep people safe and warm.
All these are the result of responding to human needs with kindness and caring and guiding technology for the benefit of mankind.
When I think about the world of advanced technology today, I think of my home, the remote and harsh environment of the Tibetan Plateau, and farmers living in tents with solar energy that they use to power their lights, TV, computers and to improve their lifestyle. I think of farmers talking on their mobile phones, discussing the weather patterns, the cost of food, community news and events. They even talk about Steve Jobs. The train to Lhasa, itself a wonderful engineering feat, brings modern medicine and education to these remote areas. The communities are now interlinked and connected, one of the most basic human needs.
Human beings have a need to be connected, to be safe to be cared for in times of trouble and hardship.
The development of technology must be guided by these needs. If this is not so, then the development of technology is in the hands of mean and, greedy people. The focus of technological development would be wars and weapons, fraud the misuse of information, and the exploitation of people, such as cheap labor.
It can only be humanism which provides the guidance we all need for a better world.
And it is you, who have the responsibility to use the technology wisely, to spread the kindness and caring.
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
i am chinese. i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i've learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i've learned about zhang heng(张衡)and i've learned about zheng he(郑和).who says the yellow river civilization has vanished(消失)?i know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇迹)on this fertile land and we're still making miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders (掠夺) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
i once came across an american tourist. she said, “china has a history of five thousand years, but the us only has a history of 200 years. five thousand years ago, china took the lead in the world, and now it is the us that is leading.”my heart was deeply touched by these words. it is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise (鄙视) ourselves. we have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. we have reasons to say proudly: we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑战) are great, but our will is even greater.
i am chinese. i have inherited (继承) black hair and black eyes. i have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. i have also taken over responsibility. i am sure, that wherever i go, whatever i do, i shall never forget that i am chinese!
We Are The World ,We Are The Future
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 front 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.”
If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance(毅力)more often, andnever give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. If we want light, wemust conquer darkness. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results.“There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount thepyramids—the eagle and the snail.”
If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; Iwould let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember thata good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once. The habit ofattention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often heargrown-up people say “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book,although I wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed inyouth.
If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to thecultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possiblemeans, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first toremember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very littletrouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. Life is very muchlike a mirror: if you smile upon it, I smile back upon you; but if you frown andlook doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return.
Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that comein contact with it. “who shuts love out ,in turn shall be shut out fromlove.”
Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the solepurpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, I would still try harder tomake others happy.
When the teacher asks me the question of what do I want to be in thefuture, I would tell him without hesitation that being a teacher is always mydream. This is my ideal job, because the contribution that I can make brings methe greatest happiness. I like reading books so much. Every time when I learnsomething new and interesting, I'd like to share with my friends. Being ateacher, I will pass the positive information to my students and guide them tobe better persons. For my ideal job, I must study hard. Success doesn't comeeasy. I need to make great progress.
当老师问我未来想做什么的时候,我会毫不犹豫地告诉他,我的梦想是成为一名老师。这是我的理想工作,因为作为一名教师所做出的贡献可以给我带来最大的幸福。我喜欢阅读,每次学习到新知识和有趣的东西时,我就想与我的朋友分享。成为一名老师,我会将这些积极的信息传递给我的学生,引导他们成为更好的人。为了我的理想工作,我必须努力学习。成功来之不易,我需要取得更大的进步。
we have heard time and time again that the evidence reflects the payment to defendants money. the president had knowledge that these funds were being paid and these were funds collected for the 1972 presidential campaign. we know that the president met with mr. henry petersen 27 times to discuss matters related to watergate, and immediately thereafter met with the very persons who were implicated in the information mr. petersen was receiving. the words are: "if the president is connected in any suspicious manner with any person and there be grounds to believe that he will shelter that person, he may be impeached."
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.
Dear teachers and mates:
We are in a constant state of trying to get something better and different.We are often trying to be someone different,even when the current us is pretty decent. If you are not happy being you,then who else can you be? In each person's life,will meet a lot of individual who will impacted themselves.Some people teach you a lot of things. Some may give you a lot of encouragement As for me there are also some people inspired me.But the most great impact was my dear father.
When I was a little girl,I often want to give up study instead play games.Then my father will told me "Perseverance is the golden key to being successful in anything you do.It's a matter of hanging on long afte others have quit".When I was a teenager I like to make track for a star,and like images like,including dress etc.Then my Dad always tell me that"Be what you are, not what you aren't,because when you are what you aren't,then you aren't what you are".All of the things are inspired me so much.
Sometimes,I think my father was a philosopher,sometimes think he is a activists,always set an example for his child ,do what a father should do.He is always working hard to feed large family, he is always considerate to forgive his naughty children,moreover he filial piety to the old person,to repay parents' brought up. In a word, he always so good.
Of course he's not a iron man,he also has a fragile, but he never lose self,and perseverance.What's more, when I meet with some troubles and want to give up, he always encourage me.I still remember what he told me "perseverance overcomes almost everything.When you fall, perseverance tells you get up.When you are defeated,perseverance tells you to try again .When you feel like quitting, perseverance doesn't let you".
Nowadays, I am an adults,and as a college student,I always unavoidably depending on my father, I often call to my father to ask some questions, meanwhile I also want to know how are they recently I start my college life followed with my fathers edification.Because of my dear father,I know how important to be myself.I have to be true to myself, because the only important thing in life is what you do with the time on spend here in earth.So I'll always be optimistic and happy in the following time.Also,as my father told me,just be perseverance to do everything. So that I can do anything I wish to create my future!
Father is like a lighthouse,guide me in the direction of the future.I hope I could owning a wonderful future,and my father will company with me forever!thanks!
Recently,six killing accident happen in elementary school,which have a bad influences on our social safety.These influences can be described as follow.
Initially,the elementary school killing accident cause the students'panic,worrying about their own safety.What’s more,it also cause the parents’and teathers’ worry,and parents and teachers must pay more attention to their children’s and student’s safety.Last but not least,due to this,many other people hold panic for their own safety.
From what we have discussed ,we know the serious consequence of killing accident in elementary school.So facing this accident,relative department should take effective measures to reduce the killing accident in elementary school,reducing the social panic,assurencing the social safety.
Saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems.....
everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have
experienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .
having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later
generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!
the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.so we must treasure it ,don't let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.
the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.
they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and ma-ki-ng it our own.
i love beijing and hennan opera because it always reminds me of who i am. but i am also a fan of pop music, especially english songs. so i have combined eastern melody with western language. it is called western henna opera.
when two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other. when this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the(customs of another culture. then there are certain things some people may not like. to this, i will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it. to learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge. before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures. at present, they may run in different courses. but eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.
right now, i can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow! thank you!
让我们共同感受东西方的融合
吉卜林说过:东方是东方,西方是西方,二者永不相聚。但是一个世纪后的今天,东西方相汇了! 它们相聚在经济领域,它们相聚在教育领域,它们相聚在艺术的殿堂。有人争论说:这种融合需要我们在东方和西方之间做出选择,但我却坚信最美好的未来在于东方和西方创造性的融合。我们可以将西方的思想,观念和技术变为我们自己所用的东西。
我喜爱京剧和河南豫剧,因为它们经常使我想起自己是谁。但我也热衷于流行音乐,特别是英文歌曲。于是我将东方的旋律和西方的语言结合到了一起,它叫做西方版的河南豫剧。
当两种文化相结合的时候,也许一方的文化中的.某些东西不适应另一方的传统文化。当此种情况出现时,我们需要试着理解并接受另一种文化中的风俗习惯。然而,也许有些东西你并不喜欢,对于此,我可以说,如果你不喜欢它,请试着去容忍它。当两种文化融合的时候,试着去容忍你个人不喜欢的东西是一种美德。
I have a wonderful dream in my heart。 It's to speak English very well。Since English is everything for me。 English is my best friend。 English is mysoul。 English is my power。 Without English, I'm nothing at all。 Nothing。 Now, Ican think in English, speak in English, and write in English。 Some people thinkI'm an Indian。 Some people regard I'm a Pakistan。 And some people even considerthat I'm an Egyptian。 But if I could speak English as good as an American, myfuture would be brilliant。 So I work very hard。
Everyone has dreams, it is the desire of everyone. Not dream of life will be empty, no dreams of life as the aircraft lost buoys, ships lost lighthouse, will eventually be eliminated by the community. But the dream is always thinking ahead with the change. Luluwuwei is by Yongren,is wise move.
Childhood, I have a dream, I hope I have money. Adults: "the young, Youle Qian you going to do it" I want to buy Paopao Tang, "" If you have a lot of money? "I will buy a lot of Paopao Tang," "If you have the money? Yong Buwan" I will do Paopao Tang bought the plant down. "Xiao Shihou of us do, the innocent, have a good Childlike Innocence, happiness and joy is a constant movement.
Slowly into the primary, secondary…… more will feel that pressure exists. Now I have a dream. I hope that day do not have a lot of homework to do. Playing a little bit of time to be deprived of, and our day in the 40 percent was being detained in the classroom, a lot of time in learning. In the face of learning, or a vague understanding. As the saying goes, "a rare confused", the understanding of things, from feudalism to the development of capitalism, the greater the more feel that their point of view is correct.
Junior high school on time, I have a dream, I hope he can become a top-notch students; family's home to be commended; school teachers can be sure of in between students to have Helijiqun performance. However, gradually, I found that to realize this dream and can not rely on to Shuashua childish. , I learned how to struggle.
Wan Zixi busy with the day to go home after school, is also trapped and tired, do not eat Yexiao flavor. This day is very monotonous, perhaps sometimes miss many primary school students, sometimes Ganzhuo class or a pair of dim Shuiyan. Hate rigid school clothes and never wear it everywhere walk. Saturday, Sunday's really a very short time, the children who really want to temper, a man slowly understand the dream is too difficult and hard, okay, I will strive to see every person to life in the sky as night time, seize Its no longer loose.
Today, I have a dream, I hope they can test into a favorite high school. I was a dream, `hard every day to find a better themselves with the practice of counseling Vol book, for a brighter future work.
Dream as a seed, planted in the "heart" of the soil, although it is very small, flowering can take root, if there is no dream, just like living in the inhospitable Gobi, empty, no vitality. So, the blood of our young people here have no one willing to do that Xingshizourou days I believe that I will not, all of you will not.
With dreams, and will have a pursuit, with the objective of struggle, a dream, there will be a driving force. Dream, is a noble bridges, regardless of whether or not to reach the final the other side, have dreams and to pursue it, this is already a success, a kind of glory. In the pursuit of dreams of this process, we are growing up.
It will Cuiren forward, perhaps in the path of realizing his dream, will encounter numerous difficulties and setbacks, but okay, fell their climb up to their dreams and advance, after all, the future of not only rely on luck, but also on their own creation .
In the past two years, my parents took me to travel to many places,including big cities, small towns, famous mountians and so on。 Therefore, I liketraveling and I hope I can visit to many more places。 Since then, I hope I canbe a tour guide in the future, so I can travel to many tourist attractions。Besides, I can meet various people and I think municating with different peopleis interesting, wchich can broaden my field of vision。 I hope they can sharetheir life stories with me so that I can know the general life of a place。 Iknow it would be a challenging job, but I believe I can do well in my job。
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.
事实上,中国餐馆在美国历史上发挥了很重要的作用。古巴导弹危机是在华盛顿一家名叫“燕京馆”的中餐馆里解决的。很不幸,这家餐馆现在关门了,即将被改建成沃尔格林连锁药店。而约翰·威尔克斯·布斯刺杀林肯总统的那所房子现在也成了一家中餐馆,就是位于华盛顿的“锅和卷”。
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.
如果你仔细想想,就会发现很多你们所认为或我们所认为,或是美国人所认为的中国食物,中国人并不认识。比如西兰花牛肉、蛋卷、左宗棠鸡、幸运饼干、杂碎、外卖盒子。
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.
所以有趣的是,幸运饼干是怎么从日本的东西变成中国的东西的呢?简单地说,我们在二战时扣押了所以的日本人,包括那些做幸运饼干的。这时候,中国人来了,看到了商机,自然就据为己有了。
Honorable judges, ladies and gentleman, good morning.
I want you to tell me something. What’s the first thing that pops into yourmind when you hear the word faith, a sacred and heart-warming word that’ssupposed to remind you of all the beauties and goodness of life, the key thatused to keep us going when confronted with all sorts of hardships and obstacles.However, when I hear the word faith, the thing it reminds me of is so remote andintangible. In this rich and peaceful era, there aren’t as many disasters orwars, especially for us young people whose lives are much easier and wealthierthan our fathers’. So is faith gradually losing its significance in the humanworld nowadays?
Like many of others, I used to think of faith as of no importance at all,and I deemed myself as a faithless person. I thought I can live my lifeperfectly fine without intentionally grasping something as my faith. Until oneday I met an American Christian named John, who later became a very good friendof mine. John is an extremely faithful Christian, and he thinks of Jesus Christas his lord. He, as a pastor, tried to convert me into a Christian when we firstmet. So he lectured me with his extensive knowledge of history and philosophyevery time we hung out. In spite of his amazingly detailed desc ription of thehistory of Jesus, what really got me intrigued is not the story he told,instead, is John himself as probably the first and most faithful person I’ve metin my entire life. I can feel the sparks in his eyes when he talks aboutbiblical things, and I am so touched by the integrity of him when he says:”Jesus Christ is the ultimate pursuit of my life” without any hesitation ordoubt.
The more we got along, the more I became jealous of him, because he alwaysseems to be joyful and optimistic. When I ask him how he manages it, he said:”I’ve had bad days too, but I also know that God is with me. So I know that it’llall be okay.” Suddenly it occurred to me how lucky it is to have something youcan completely put your trust into, something that will bring you strength whenyour mind is weak, something that reminds you “ it’s not so bad” when you’refilled with sorrow, something that gives your existence significance and bringit up to a higher level. So I was literally converted, not into a Christian, notinto someone faithful either, but into someone who wants to be as faithful atleast.
That was the first time I am exposed to the power of faith. To put itsimple, your life is complete only if you have faith. You must find somethingimportant and significant in your life, your purpose, your pursuit, whatever youcall it. I’m not saying faith must relate to religion or God. It could beanything. It could be your career goal, your children, your lover, fellowship,or a certain kind of life style, anything, as long as you dare to trust yourlife in it with your heart of hearts.
Now I’m still faithless. I haven’t become a Christian or find what mattersto me most yet. But what John gave me is whole new perspective to see life. SoI’ll strive to really feel and touch the beauty in life and won’t take it forgranted. And that’s also what I encourage all of us to do. Keep looking for thefaith of your own, and when you do, you’ll know it’s all worth it.

My Family
Everyone has a family.We live in it and feel very warm.There are three persons in my family,my mother,father and I.We live together very happily and there are many interesting stories about my family.
My father is a hard-working man.He works as a barber.
My mother is a woman with a bad memory.She always does a lot of housework,but sometimes she makes mistakes out of carelessness.For example,one day,she washed clothes in the washer,after the washer finished the work,she found she hadn't filled the washer with water.
Now let me tell you a funny thing:one day,father wanted to get up early as usual,buthe wasn't able to do that,because he hadn't set the alarm clock the night before,so when he got up,he did everything in a hurry.After father left,mother said to me mysteriously,"He will come back soon." "Why?" I was greatly surprised."Because today is Sunday,his holiday!" Just as mother said,father came back home soon,and went to bed again--he was too tired.
You see,what an interesting family have!I hope that you will have one like mine,too.
我的家庭
每个人都有家.我们大家生活在那里,并从那里获取温暖.我们家有三口人,我妈妈、爸爸,还有我.我们在一起幸福地生活,我们家有许多有趣的故事.
我爸爸工作认真.他是理发师.
我妈妈是一位记性很不好的人.她总是做很多家务活,但有时却因为她的粗心而做错事.比如说,有一天,她用洗衣机洗衣服,最后却发现自己忘了在洗衣机中放水.现在让我告诉你一件有趣的事:一天,爸爸想像平常一样早起,但是由于他前天没有设置闹钟,所以他起晚了,当他起床时,他匆匆忙忙地洗漱完毕就去上班了,爸爸离开后,妈妈神秘地对我说:“他一会儿一定会回来的.”“为什么?”我十分惊讶.“因为今天是星期天,他的假日.”妈妈正说着的时候,不一会儿,爸爸就回来了,并且再一次上床睡觉了——因为他太累了.
你瞧,多么有趣的家庭!我希望你也有一个像我一样的家庭.

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.

你认为一个朋友应该有什么品质继续友谊?使用具体原因来支持你的想法。
在我心中,我认为最重要的品质继续友谊是真诚。真正的友谊必须建立在真诚之上。然而,继续友谊不是一件容易的事情。彼此都需要支付很多。诚信这个词包含了太多。首先,我们需要彼此坦率而诚实的。只有当我们这样做可以另一边同样对待我们像,从而建立朋友间的信念。友谊充满了谎言和欺骗不应该叫做友谊。其次,我们需要相当大的,不要以自我为中心。我们应该更多的为我们的朋友,鼓励他们在某些场合。一个以自我为中心的朋友会很麻烦的,烦人。没有人会容忍他很长一段时间。最后,我认为我们应该学会妥协。我们不能永远活在和谐与我们的朋友。暴露有分歧的时候,我们应该相互妥协。只有这样,友谊才能长久。
It is undeniable that the worsening environment has bee the biggest concernof the present-day world。Land resources are dwindling because of water loss andsoil erosion。Waste gases poison the air we breathe。The rivers and lakes arepolluted by waste dumped in them from factories。It is probably no exaggerationto say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens theexistence of mankind itself。
Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the pricewe have to pay for economic development。But I do not think that this argument isvalid。After all, what is the point of economic growth if people’s lives areadversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?
There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can beachieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment。The keyto achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem。Bothgovernments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a betterplace to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations。
不可否认的是环境恶化已成为当今世界上人们最担心的事了。因为水资源的浪费和土壤被侵蚀,土地资源逐渐缩小。我们呼吸着有毒的空气,河流和湖泊也被附近的工厂里排放出来的废弃物严重污染了。不夸大其词地说,环境质量的恶化很可能威胁人类的生存。
有些人说环境问题是我们为经济发展所付出的代价。对此,我不敢苟同。如果人类的生活被日益恶化的环境污染所影响的话,那么,经济发展的好处何在?
足够的证据证明:经济发展与环境保护的平衡能够实现可持续发展。关键是使人们意识到问题的严重性。政府和普通市民两方都就应携手使地球成为更适合人类居住的地方,这不仅仅是为我们自我,也是为我们的后代。
My mother is an ordinary teacher. She always puts her students beforeeverything. She is nothing different from other people at the first sight. Butlater you will find that she is so responsible. In my mind, she is very great.On weekends, she always prepare the class at home. Sometimes she even ask thestudents to come to our house for remediation for free. All her students likeher. Sometimes I almost envy her students. Luckily, my mother also very careabout me. she puts all her time on our family and her students, leaving nothingfor herself. She is so great, and I proud of her; and I love her.
我的妈妈是一个普通的老师。她总是把她的学生放在最重要的位置。乍一看,她和别的人没有什么不一样的。但后来你会发现她是如此有责任心。在我的心目中,她是很伟大的。周末的时候她总是在家里备课。有时候她甚至叫学生到我们家来免费补课。她的学生都很喜欢她。有时候我都差点要嫉妒她的学生了。幸好我慢慢还是很关心我的。她把她所有的时间都花在我们家和她的学生身上,却不给自己留一丁点时间。她是如此的伟大,我为她感到骄傲;我爱她。
I have a dream today
hello everyone!
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.
Thank you!

今天,我和弟弟一家人去看电影——“少年派的奇幻漂流历险记”。
我们怀着高兴的心情到了电影院。电影里的主人翁是一个名叫派的孩子,有一天,派的一家人要搬家,刚到船上,就下起了暴风雨,无情的暴风雨把大船吹得左摇右摆,随时都有翻船的可能,派急忙跳到了附着大船的救生艇上,而正当别人也准备跳的时候,突然,救生艇的绳子断了,那些人跳下了海里,更不幸的是大船也翻了沉下了海底,最后只有派一个人幸存了下来。派孤独地坐在救生艇上抱头放声痛哭。突然,一只叫查理帕克——孟加拉虎从救生艇上的雨蓬里跑了出来,吓得派跑到了船头,看见查理帕克并没有伤害他的意思,由于海里大风,感觉寒冷,于是渐渐地靠在了一起共同取暖。过了不久,他们成了好朋友。不知过了多长时间,救生艇终于飘到了一个小岛上,他们高兴地在沙滩上跑来跑去,可是第二天派最好的朋友——查理帕克跑进了森林里后就再也没有回来。半年过去了,派找了很多地方都没有找到。一天,派生病倒下了,幸运的是,来岛上考古的人发现了派,准备把他带岀城市,离岛前派哭得很伤心,并不是因为获救了激动地哭,而是担心他最好的朋友查理帕克,是否发生了什么意外。
看了这部电影,我不仅深深的沉浸在电影的情节中,时而心情紧张,时而感动的眼泪汪汪,而且我还增长了一些课外的知识。
With the development of the society, people pay more concern on whetherchoose a high-paying job with long hours or a low-paying job with short hours.There are different opinions on it, and the topic become more and moreconspicuous.
随着社会的发展,人们对是否选择一个高薪却工作时间长还是低报酬而工作短的工作给予了更多的关注。它有不同的意见,这个话题越来越突出。
Every coin has two sides. The two choices have their own advantages anddisadvantages, but I support that a high-paying job with long hours is better.One of the reasons is that I am a workaholic, a high-paying job with long hourscan afford more opportunities to make great progress to challenge myself, andthe success will satisfy my sense of achievement to a great extent. And what Iwant to emphasize is that this is an economic society which requires me to seethe reality clearly. A high-paying job means a high position in the society, soI can get more respect and admiration from others. I should also take on theresponsibility of providing a better life for my family, such as a big house, aprivate car, plenty of food, beautiful clothes, the best education and medicaltreatments and so on. What’s more, in the long run, with a high paying-job, I’llsave up much money for the life in the future, in other words, even though Iretire in old age, I can still give my family an easy life. Last but not least,we are young now, if we don’t work hard, what do we live for when we get old inthe future?
每个硬币都有两面。两种选择都有它的优点和缺点,但我觉得高薪却工作时间长是更好的。其中一个原因是因为我是一个工作狂,一份高薪而工作时间长的工作可以提供更多的机会去取得很大的进步并挑战自我,在很大程度上成功也会满足我的成就感。我想强调的是,这是一个经济型社会,需要我清晰地看清现实。一个高收入的工作意味着社会地位高,所以我可以得到更多他人的尊重和钦佩。我也要负起为我的家人提供更好的生活的责任,如一个大房子,一辆私家车,充足的食物,漂亮的衣服,的教育和医疗等。更重要的是,从长远来看,拥有一个高收入的工作,我可以为将来的生活节省很多钱,换句话说,即使我老了,退休了,我还可以给家人一个安逸的生活。最后但并非最不重要的是我们现在还年轻,如果我们不努力,我们将来变老了该以什么为生呢?
In short, when we are young and strong, working hard is the best choice.Cheer up! Come on!
总之,在我们年轻力壮的时候,努力工作是的选择。打起精神,加油!
