Many people want to believe that finding happiness is all about finding orgetting something that they want. However, not many people have ever foundlong-term happiness by achieving a goal. There will always be another thing thatthey want. There will always be another exam or another dollar.
許多人都相信,找到幸福就等於找到或得到他們的心儀之物。然而,很多人並沒有在目標實現之後就獲得長久的幸福。這是因為人們總想要得到更多的東西,總還要走入考場,總還要賺更多的錢。
To break this vicious cycle, we must find our happiness somewhere else—within ourselves. In other words, happiness is completely an inside job. Thekey to finding happiness is to understand that happiness is a choice rather thanthe result of an experience. We have been given everything
為了打破這種惡性迴圈,我們必須在其他地方找到幸福——那就是在我們的內心世界裡。換句話說,幸福是心靈的產物。得到幸福的關鍵就在於要懂得幸福是一種選擇,而不是經歷的結果。
We need to be happy. Allow yourself to choose happiness. If life wasperfect, would you be happy? Life is perfect because we create it with ourchoices. Since we can create life, we can create happiness and choose how muchbetter our lives can get!
我們已經擁有獲得幸福所需要的一切。去選擇自己的幸福吧!倘若生活是完美的,你會覺得幸福嗎?人生之所以完美就因為它是我們通過選擇創造出來的。既然我們能創造生活,我們就能創造幸福,並選擇更美好的人生!
Only when we can accept that life is perfect as it is, and that our livesare the sum total of everything that has happened up to this moment, can weaccept the joy and the happiness we deserve.
我們只有在接受生活原本就很完美,並且生活就是此刻所經歷之事的全部之時,我們才能得到我們應得的那份喜悅與幸福。
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call ithard is not so bad as you looks poorest when you are ault-finder will find faults in your life,poor as it mayperhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a etting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as fromthe rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I donot see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheeringthoughts,as in a town's poor seem to me often to live the mostindependent lives of be they are simply great enough to receive think that they are above being supported by the town;but itoften happens that they are not above supporting themselves by h should be more ivate poverty like a gardenherb,like not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes orfriends,Turn the old,return to gs do not change;we yourclothes and keep your thoughts.
不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂裡也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，儘管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院裡，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮;在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很偉大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們;可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像聖人一樣耕植它吧!不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那裡去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。
The first day of school our professor introduced a little old lady tous.
"Why are you in college at such a young age?" I asked later. She jokinglyreplied, " I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple ofchildren, and then retire and travel."
"No seriously," I asked. I was curious what may have motivatedher to betaking on this challenge at her age. "I always dreamed of having a collegeeducation and now I'm getting one!" she told me.
We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months we wouldleave class together and tolk nonstop. I was always listening to this "timemachine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to make a speech to our footballteam. I'll never forget what she taught us. As she began to deliverher preparedspeech, she dropped her note card on the floor. A little embarrassed she simplysaid, "I'm sorry. This whiskey is killing me! I'll never get my speech back inorder so let me just tell you what I know." As we laughed she cleared her throatand began:" We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because westop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, andachieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You've got tohave a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walkingaround who are dead and don't even know it! There is a huge difference betweengrowing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed forone full year and don't do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years ody can grow older. That doesn't take any talentor ability. The idea is togrow up by always finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. Theelderly usually don't have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we didnot do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets."
At the year's end Rose finished the college degree. One week aftergraduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college studentsattended her funeral to honorthe wonderful woman who taught by example that it'snever too late to be all you can possibly be.
開學第一天，教授把一位小個子老太太介紹給了我們。
隨後我問道，“你為什麼這麼“年輕”還來讀大學?”她開玩笑地回答：“我來這兒是為了認識一個有錢的丈夫，結婚，生幾個孩子，然後退休去旅行。”
“不，認真點兒。”我問道。我很好奇，到底是什麼東西讓她在這個年紀還要接受這樣一個挑戰。“我一直夢想著上大學，現在我就在讀大學!”她告訴我。
我們馬上成了朋友。在隨後的三個月裡，我們每天一起離開教室，不停地交談。我總是和歷經了歲月滄桑的她一起分享她的智慧和經驗。
期末的時候，我們邀請羅斯給我們的橄欖球隊講話。我永遠都不會忘記她教給我們的東西。就在她要開始進行她事先準備好的演講時，她把寫了要點的卡片掉在了地上。她有點兒尷尬，但只是說，“對不起。這酒可真要命!我沒辦法再準備好我的講稿了，就讓我把我知道的東西告訴你們吧。”我們笑了起來，她清了清嗓子，開始演講：“我們並不是因為年老就不再玩耍;我們變老是因為我們不再玩耍。只有四個祕密可以讓你保持年輕，快樂，獲得成功。你必須每天都開懷大笑，尋找幽默。你必須有一個夢想。失去了夢想，你就會雖生猶死。我們周圍有很多人，他們已經‘死了’，自己卻不知道。成長和長大之間有著巨大的差距。如果你現在19歲，躺在床上整整一年什麼都不做，你也還會變成20歲。每一個人都會長大，這不需要任何天賦和能力。要不斷地在變化中尋找機遇，這樣才是成長。
不要留有遺憾。老年人通常不會為做過的事遺憾，而是為還沒有做過的事情感到遺憾。只有那些有遺憾的人才會怕死。”
年底的時候，羅斯獲得了大學學位。畢業一星期後，她在夢中安詳地離開了人世。兩千多名大學生參加了她的葬禮，來紀念這位通過自己的親身經歷來告訴我們永遠都可以成就自己的理想的了不起的老人。
i come to this magnificent house of worship tonight because my conscience leaves me no other choice. i join you in this meeting because i am in deepest agreement with the aims and work of the organization which has brought us together: clergy and laymen concerned about vietnam. the recent statements of your executive committee are the sentiments of my own heart, and i found myself in full accord when i read its opening lines: "a time comes when silence is betrayal." and that time has come for us in relation to vietnam.
the truth of these words is beyond doubt, but the mission to which they call us is a most difficult one. even when pressed by the demands of inner truth, men do not easily assume the task of opposing their government's policy, especially in time of war. nor does the human spirit move without great difficulty against all the apathy of conformist thought within one's own bosom and in the surrounding world. moreover, when the issues at hand seem as perplexed as they often do in the case of this dreadful conflict, we are always on the verge of being mesmerized by uncertainty; but we must move on.
Environmental problems are as big as not for individual country orindividual people to address。 In other word， we have reached the stage thatenvironmental problems be solved for international view。 To what extent do youagree or disagree?
In recent years， many nations have bee more aware of the environmentalissues each nation faces， such as air and water pollution。 The question is， arethe environmental issues a national problem or an international problem? It ismy belief that the environmental issues have grown to the point of being aninternational problem needing international cooperation to resolve。
Because of the differences in environmental policies， resources andtechnology， international cooperation could provide quicker results and have agreater impact on bringing resolution to environmental problems for nations ofdiffering environmental policies and of lesser resources and technology。 Bypooling international resources and technology to address the environmentalproblems， the disadvantaged nations are provided the assistance needed。Otherwise their environmental conditions deteriorate ultimately affecting theresources and environment of the world as a whole。
One of the difficulities to an international resolution to environmentalissues is the difference in individual nations view and policies towardenvironmental protection。 In order for international cooperation to occur andsucceed， the nations of the world must submit themselved to internationalstandards and supervision by an international mission elected by theparticipating nations of the world。 All members must agree to abide by thestandards established。
The environmental issues facing each country are not unrelated to the wellbeing of the rest of the world。 The impact is long term and international inscope。 Without international cooperation and agreement to address suchenvironmental issues as glacial melting at the South Pole， depletion of theozone layer， water pollution， air polution， etc。， the environmental conditionsof the world will deteriorate to the detriment of every nation， not just thosethat ignore or lack the resources and technology to resolve their individualenvironmental problems。
As part of the same planet， it is the responsibility of each individual andnation to protect the global environment。 Only international cooperation willprovide the timely solutions and the effectiveness needed to stop thedeteriorating global environment。
we are busier and busier now. sometimes we just feel stressed and painful and we forget to smile. please smile! smile to others around you. smile to the world!
smile is important in our life. for ourselves, smile can make us happy and relaxed when we are sad or stressed. when you smile, the world in your eyes are others, smile can make others feel comfortable and relaxed and they will like you.
also, smile can bring you success. i once read a story. a salesman tried his best to sale things but always failed before. then he learned how to smile. he smiled all the time and others felt he was so kind and his smile was so attractive that they all wanted to but his things. finally, the man became successful.
no matter you are happy or sad, do it now. the power of a smile is large. it can make all of us feel happy including yourself. smile to the world, to others and to everything.
我們現在忙,忙。有時我們只是感到壓力和痛苦,我們忘了微笑。請微笑!對別人微笑。向世界微笑! 微笑在我們的生活中是很重要的。對於自己,微笑可以使我們快樂和放鬆當我們悲傷或壓力。當你微笑的時候,世界在你眼中更好。對另一些人來說,微笑可以讓別人感到舒適和放鬆,他們會喜歡你。 此外,微笑可以給你帶來成功。我曾經讀過一個故事。推銷員試圖出售他最好的東西,但總是失敗。然後,他學會了如何微笑。他笑了笑,別人覺得他是如此的友善,他的笑容很有吸引力,他們都想但他的事情。最後,成為成功的人。 不管你是快樂或悲傷,現在就做。微笑的力量是巨大的。它能使我們感到快樂,包括你自己。笑對世界,對他人和一切。
Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! I‟m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
First I want to ask you some questions: 1、 Do you know what is youth? 2、 How do you master your youth?
Youth
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 16 , 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 ! Thank you!
Good morning, ladies and gentemen.
This is Li Hua from Senior Three. I’m here today to share with you a good lesson from an overseas Chinese student living in Germany. It is a true story.
After years of hard work, this Chinese student graduated with amazing academic achievements. Everyone thought he was going to get a good job easily and have a bright future. But to his disappointment, he was not even allowed the chance for an interview! The third time he was turned down, he couldn’t help telephoning the company to ask why they didn’t want him. The answer was simple, “We don’t hire dishonest people in Germany.”
What was wrong you might wonder? The truth is, shortly aften he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was easy to skip buying subway tickets. So, to save money, he often went without a ticket. As a result, he had been caught without a ticket in the subway three times.
From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits by dishonest means, but the truth will come out sooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honest is the best policy.
That’s all for my speech. Thank you!
We students are the builders and masters of the country. It is important for us to know how to be a good student far as I think, there are many important traits, the traits like this:
Nowadays，Some students may have wrong ideas of what a good student is. they think a good student should study all the subjects well and listen to the teachers all the time, but actually these ones don't care about anything except study.
Firstly, we must have clear world values. We must knows what we should do and what we shouldn't do.
Secondly, a good students should learn as much as possible. So a good student always tries to learn from both text-books and other books. Besides reading, doing some sports and manual works. however, we can’t always study alone, sometimes you need a discussion, don’t forget to work hard with your friends, it will be great help to you.
Thirdly, a strong character and will-power are also need. Because we have troubles every day. How to face the difficulties in study and our lives is very important. A good student won't be afraid of difficulties, we'll always try our best, we will never give up.
In short, let us try our best to become a good student!
我們學生是這個國家的建設者和大師。對我們來說是很重要的知道如何成為一個好學生。我認為,有許多重要的特徵,特徵是這樣的:
如今,一些學生可能有錯誤的想法什麼是一個好學生。他們認為一個好學生應該學好所有的科目,聽老師的,但實際上這些人不關心除了學習。
首先,我們必須有明確的世界價值觀。我們必須知道我們應該做什麼,我們不應該做什麼。
其次,一個好的學生應該學習儘可能多。所以一個好學生總是試圖從教科書和其他書籍。除了閱讀,做一些運動和手工作品。然而,我們不能總是獨自學習,有時候你需要一個討論,不要忘記努力工作和你的朋友,這將是很大的幫助。
第三,一個堅強的性格和意志力也是需要的。因為我們每天都麻煩。如何面對困難的學習和我們的生活是非常重要的。一個好學生不會害怕困難,我們總是會盡最大努力,我們永遠不會放棄。
簡而言之,讓我們盡力成為一個好學生!
What College Education Means to Me
大學教育對我的意義
The title of my speech is "What college education means to me"eflecting on the past two and half years of my college experience, I come torealize how much it has shaped me.
今天我演講的題目是“大學教育對我的意義”。回顧思索著逝去的兩年半的大學生活，我漸漸認識到大學教育對我產生的巨大影響。
For me, college education is a marvelous ship-builder who designed me fromkneel plates up.
對我來說，大學教育猶如一位技藝精湛的造船師，從船頭至船尾地塑造了我。
With great vision, college education has equipped me, first with a powerfulpropeller----the sophisticated knowledge in certain field and wide exposure toother disciplines. By dedicating myself to the engineering courses in the dayand immersing myself in the rich banquet of the world literature at night, I'veamassed the driving force for the future and enriched my soul.
首先，具有遠見卓識的大學教育為我裝配了一隻馬力強勁的推進器;精深的專業知識及廣博的課外知識給我帶來無限動力。白天我全神貫注地研習自己的工科課程，晚上則盡情享受世界文學所帶來的盛宴，在此過程中，我既為未來積聚了力量，又充實了自己的靈魂。
Besides, college education has also provided me with a precisecompass----the sense of social responsibility. How can I best serve the interestof the public while achieving my self-fulfillment? My one year's experience as apart-time English teacher has testified: to be valuable to society as well as tofind my place, I have to possess some actual strength and the ability tofunction well in the most challenging situation. Amid the hectic schedule thatbalances club activities, sports, and academic courses, I feel the rhythm andbeauty in the intensity of my high-pitched life, knowing that I 'm on the rightway.
此外，大學教育還為我提供了一個精確的羅盤，即社會責任感。“如何才能在實現自我價值的同時最大限度地服務於社會?”我一年的兼職英語教師的經歷證明：只有擁有過硬的實力和對高挑戰性局面應付自如的能力，我才能成為一個對社會有價值的人，一個找到自己位置的人。在協調著社團活動、體育運動和專業課程的忙碌日程中，我感受到了高節奏、高密度生活的韻律與美麗。
And more importantly, college education has set up not only single ships,but also fleets with common destinations. By interacting with friends of commonbeliefs, I've acquired skills of relating to other people.
更為重要的是，大學教育不僅僅製造了一隻只單個的船隻，他還組建了一支支駛向同一目的地的大艦隊。在與志趣相投的朋友們的相處、融合中，我鍛鍊了與人交往的能力。
Now ,as a ship about to make my maiden voyage, I'm still not in theposition to tell what's waiting ahead of me ,but with a powerful propeller, aprecise compass and ardent companions of sailing in the sea of society, I'mready to be a great sea-explorer.
現在我即將作為一隻巨輪開始我的首航，儘管前方的情況還無法預料，我卻有充足的信心作一名出色的海洋探索者，因為我有強勁的推進器、精確的羅盤，還有一幫與我同行 、一起駛向社會之洋的熱心朋友!
Thank you.
謝謝大家!
Hi, everyone. As we all know,many great inventions have brought greatchanges to our life. I think we students can also invent something.
大家好!我們都知道,許多偉大的發明給我們的生活帶來了巨大的變化。我認為我們學生也可以發明一些東西。
Today I'm glad to be here to talk about what I'd like to invent - a chairthat's good for students' health. It will be made of wood. There will be twosensors in it -- one on the seat, and the other on the back of the chair. Whenthe student doesn't sit straight, the chair will remind him he sits on thechair for over one hour ,it will make a noise. It won't stop until the studentstands up and leaves.
今天我很高興到這裡來談論我想發明——一把椅子,對學生的健康有好處。這將是用木頭做的。將會有兩個感測器，一個在椅子上，另一個在椅子後背。當學生不坐直,椅子會提醒他。如果他坐在椅子上超過一個小時,這將發出噪音。它不會停止,直到學生站起來,離開了。
It will be a useful invention, won't it ?
這將是一個有用的發明,不是嗎?
Thank you!
謝謝大家!
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, it is victory. Victory at all costs—victory in spite of all terrors—victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival. Let that be realized, no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that British Empire has stood for , no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall more forward toward his goal. I take up my task in buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.”
我能奉獻的唯有熱血、辛勞、淚水和汗水。我們所面臨的將是一場極為殘酷的考驗，我們面臨的將是曠日持久的鬥爭和苦難。你若問我們的目標是什麼?我可以用一個詞來概括，那就是勝利。不惜一切代價去奪取勝利，不畏懼一切恐怖去奪取勝利，不論前路再長再苦也要多去勝利，因為沒有勝利糾無法生存!我們必須意識到，沒有勝利就沒有大英帝國，沒有勝利就沒有大英帝國所象徵的一切，沒有勝利就沒有多少世紀以來強烈的要求和衝動：人類應當向自己的目標邁進。此刻，我的精神振奮，滿懷信心地承當起自己的人物。我確信，只要我們大家聯合，我們的事業就不會挫敗。此時此刻千鈞一髮之際，我覺得我有權要求各方面的支援。我要呼籲：“來吧，讓我們群策努力，並肩邁進!”
Dear Mr. Li dear my schoolmates good morning!
Entrusted by the first group of schoolmates the topic of my speech is Necessity for lifelong learning.
About lifelong learning there is the famous proverb in Chinese: never too old to learn. Confucius the famous educator in ancient China also said: if I learn the Classical literature "Yi" from the age of 50 I would never make so many mistakes.
To sum up Necessity of lifelong learning is mainly based on the following reasons: First of all the knowledge of modern society changes so quickly if not to learn new knowledge in time you will soon fall behind the times. For example using the mobile Internet technology we can using a mobile phone to book a taxi pay various fees buy all kinds of goods etc. if a person may not grasp the knowledge especially senior people they will not use the convenience brought by Internet.
Secondly diligent in thinking can effectively prevent the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease. This conclusion has been verified in medicine. Finally a person who maintains the habit of lifelong learning can have a stronger advantage in occupation choice. This is not only good for the person but also for the country and the society. Some people complain that they have too much work and have no time to read a book usually. But In fact lifelong learning is not only reading or having a class we can browse the web read e-books receiving distance courses through the Internet conveniently. We can learn not only knowledge but also skills.
Age cannot be a barrier to our lifelong learning. Chu Shijian once the king of China's tobacco industry had suffered a great setback before retirement. He was even put into prison. But at the age of 75 he began to study orange planting technology seriously and finally have a huge success in this area ten years late. Harland Sandoz of America began learning the fast-food lethal at his age of 83. When he was 88 years old his fast food chain often Kentucky had distributed each corner of the world.
Therefore lifelong learning is never too late to start let's start our plan today. Thank you.
As you slowly open your eyes， look around， notice where the light comesinto 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 theair. Yes， yes， yes， it’s a new day， it’s a different day， and it’s a bright day!And most importantly， it’s a new beginning for your life， a beginning where youare going to make new decisions， take new actions， make new friends， and takeyour life to a totally unprecedented(空前的) level.
In your mind’s eye， you can see clearly the things you want to have， thepaces you intend to go， the relationships you desire to develop， and thepositions you aspire(勵志) to reach.
You can hear your laughter’s of joy and happiness on the day wheneverything happens as you dream. You can see the smiles on the people around youwhen the magic moment strikes. You can feel your face is getting red， your heartis beating fast， and your blood is rushing all over your body， to every singlecorner of your being!
You know all this is real as long as you are confident， passionate andcommitted!(效忠的) And you are confident， you are passionate， you arecommitted!
You will no longer fear making new sounds， showing new facial expressions，using your body in new ways， approaching new people， and asking newquestions.
You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion， and youwill 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 yourlife. You will never succumb(屈服，屈從) to challenges of hardships.
You will never waver(動搖) in your pursuit of excellence. After all， you arethe best， and you deserve the best!
As your coach and friend， I can assure you the door to all the best thingsin the world will open to you， but the key to that door is in your hand. Youmust do your part. You must faithfully follow the plans you make and take theactions you plan; you must never quit and you must never fear. I know you mustdo it， you can do it， you will do it， and you will succeed! Now stand firm andtall， 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 cando it! I will do it! I will succeed!
I must do it! I can do it! I will do it
