“ We are made wise not by the recollections of the past but by our responsibility for the future”
----George Bernard Shaw
China is faced with some enormous challenges as it enters the 21st century. In order to ensure the prosperity of our nation and its future generations we must confront and ultimately solve these challenges.
Some of the more pressing issues facing China are universal. These include environmental degradation, over population andthe effects of globalization.
To overcome some of the things we need to implement include:
Enhancing our scientific and industrial technologies in such areas as IT, Bio- tech, AI and Cybernetics.
Further develop public infrastructure in under developed regions.
Promote education reform at all levels.
Introduce sustainable development initiatives.
The implementation of free trade agreement between China and ASEAN.
The benefit to China in introducing these initiatives will be significant and far-reaching. It is important to realize that these initiatives need to filter down through all elements of the society in China. For instance, cutting edge technologies and intellectual properties; the development of e-commerce based economy; an education system that encourages innovation and creativity; increased foreign investment; higher living standards; more efficient use of natural resources.
It is important for us to realize these reforms are both essential and necessary. These will help China to fulfill its vast and unrealized potential on the world stage. It will also contribute more to a globalized world of the new century.
As for the future our task is not to foresee but to enable.
Never Put off until Tomorrow What You Can DoToday
We have been told that never put off until tomorrowwhat you can do today since childhood. However,there are still many people who like putting off thethings that should do today until have no plans for their work and their time. As aresult, they will not accomplish their goals in theend. For example, one Sunday I felt so tired after having a football match that I did not finishmy homework even at night. I thought I could get up earlier to go to school the next morningso that I could finish my homework before class. But the next morning I was not able to get toschool in time because of the traffic jam. I was punished by the teacher. It taught me a then on I made a determination that I would never put off anything important until thenext day. Please remember: Work today, for you don’t know how much you may be hinderedtomorrow. Seize the present day，cherish every minute you have now and trust the tomorrowas little as possible.
As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.
Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.
Time flies!Our freshmen have spent two months in our beautiful campus of university. Every new beginning is a new can't expect anything to be the same as our erent envirenment is a new are always curious with the things gh we come from different placeswe have our own dream our own ambition our own the mankind is sometimes so fragile that it can't withstand outside lure.
Many students are the first time to be so far away form come to a foreign city a foreign campus facing so many foreign but friendly ty of activities bring us fresh air and pleasant busy with study and work enriches our lifehelping preventing our homesick.

"If you don't want to wake up and find you have no pants to wear, you'd better put themon in sleep," goes a popular joke among students. Obviously, campus thefts have becomeincreasingly annoying as they occur far more often than before. And it seems that the thievesare less choosy these days, with their targets ranging widely from bikes, cell phones, purses,pre-paid IC cards to sunglasses, bags, and even underwear. In short, anything that worth adime is likely to be stolen.
What makes students the easy targets? The reasons are not hard to find. But I believe ofall these reasons, the lack of anti-theft alertness is the most important. For lack of alertness,the students tend to leave the doors and windows wide open during sleep at noon or at nightin summer. For the same reason, they'll also leave their bikes unlocked before a store or by aroad, or forget to take away their personal stuff before they go out of the classroom to make aphone call. These acts undoubtedly have increased their exposure to the light-fingeredmonsters.
In order to minimize possible losses, the students must stay on guard in the first place, asawareness of the thefts around often makes a big difference. To be more specific, thestudents should not hide any tempting amount of cash in the dorm. Put it in the bank des, do not leave any valuable items unattended. Take them wherever you go. Inaddition, it's advisable to develop a neighbourhood watch programme with other students inthe dorm and neighbouring dorms.

Spring, I never had strong feeling to spring before last year. Some peoplesaid spring should be a happy season. But I never sensed that. I always likedthe autumn because I thought autumn was a romantic season. I liked summer when Iwas very young for I loved my skirt with , I still like autumn andsummer,while I like spring and winter. Before I disliked the various colors ofthe flowers,and I thought they are flighty and superficial. I thought only onlythe blue ocean is deep, the golden autumn is elegant. However, now I have adifferent idea that I find spring wonderful. I like the blossom in the field andin the moutain. From them I am spirited with life.
春天,我沒有強烈的感覺,去年春天。有人說春天應該是一個快樂的季節。但我從來沒意識到。我喜歡秋天,因為我認為秋天是一個浪漫的季節。我喜歡夏天的時候我很年輕,我喜歡我的裙子鑲上花邊。現在,我仍然喜歡秋天和夏天,而我喜歡春天和冬天。之前我不喜歡各種顏色的花,我想他們是輕浮的,膚淺的。我只認為只有藍色的海洋深處,金色的秋天是優雅。但是,現在我有不同的想法,我覺得春天的美妙。我喜歡在山頂的欄位和開花。從我的生活。
failure is a common thing in one's life. almost everyone experiences failure in his life. when one fails in his attempt in doing something, he often feels upset. some people may yield to failure and flinch from it. but others will stick to and achieve the final success.
success is what everyone expects. it may lead to fame and glory. when one suc ceeds in doing something, he gets so excited that he often neglects all the unsuccessful at tempts he has done.
as the old saying goes, "failure teaches success." it is true that failure is an impor tam factor toward success. the way to success is full of various difficulties and obstacles. many important inventions or discoveries were achieved after hundreds of failure. and only those successes which have been achieved after many failures are really valuable and praiseworthy.

王力巨集伯克利音樂學院演講
I don't know what to say. I didn't know that there would be a podium with a microphone. I thought I would just be singing songs. Not to downplay that, but ...
我不知說什麼好了。我不知道這邊有一個帶麥克風的講臺。我還以為只要唱幾首歌就好了。不是說那不重要。
Oh, my goodness, what an honor. I am just so humbled and excited to be here looking out at all of you.
哦，我的老天，多麼大的一份榮譽。在這裡看著大家，我既誠惶誠恐，又激動萬分。
Being back here on campus is ... I feel so proud to have studied here. And ... that's 16 years ago, but ... I used to come to Symphony Hall every weekend and get those rush tickets, the student packs, and watch the Boston Symphony Orchestra perform as often as possible, often by myself.
重新回到這裡真的是…我為自己曾在此學習過而感到自豪。已經是16年前了，但是…我以前經常一個人在週末來到交響樂大廳，搶一些所謂的“趕急票”，來欣賞波士頓交響樂團的表演。
And it was one of the highlights of my time here at Berklee, so being here on stage is really unreal. Walking around on campus today was a testament to how far Berklee's come in the last 16 years. It is beautiful, the campus, the facilities. I was walking by the MP&E, the studios, the equipment, the fitness center. We didn't have any of these stuffs. So I guess you guys have been doing a pretty good job. So thank you, and congratulations to that. What a time for the East and West in music, in pop culture.
這是我在伯克利學習生活的眾多亮點之一了，所以能來到這個臺上實屬不易。今天我在校園漫步，感受到了母校在這16年間的變化之大。她太美了，無論是環境還是設施。我還路過MP&E，那些工作室，一些設施，對了還有一個健身中心。我們那會兒可沒有這玩意兒。所以校方的努力非常的棒，謝謝你們，也祝賀你們。這是一個東西方在音樂、流行文化中交流的偉大時代。
All of you, music lovers, future musicians, future professional musicians on the stage, and like what Roger just said, it's so important for us to be ambassadors, to be that bridge, to be ambassadors of peace, and breaking down the walls, bringing people together. Last night ... this is an issue that's so close in my heart, because last night in Los Angeles, my dear friend Jackie Chan was the first person ... first Chinese actor ever to win an Oscar, last night! I just want to thank all of you for being here, that's why we make music, is to connect with people.
在座的各位，無論你是音樂發燒友、未來的音樂人，還是未來專業的舞臺表演音樂家，就像Roger剛所說的，我們要成為大使，這一點非常重要。我們要成為溝通東西方的橋樑，成為和平的使者，我們要消除阻礙，把人和人連線起來。對了，跟大家說一件很激動人心的事情，昨天晚上在洛杉磯，我的好朋友成龍大哥成為了第一個獲得奧斯卡小金人的中國演員，就在昨天晚上。真的感謝大家今天來到這兒，這也是讓我做音樂的原因—把人連線起來。
I've never written a song without loving it myself. So for all of you musicians, always follow your heart and always do what you love. I've definitely ... you know ... never convince yourself that what other people are telling you to do is right if you don't feel like it's right in your heart. As a musician, it just doesn't work.
我對我寫的每一首歌都很喜歡，沒有不喜歡的。所以，各位音樂人，請跟隨自己的心，做自己愛做的事。如果你內心不認可的事情，那麼無論別人怎麼說，你都別動搖。作為一個音樂人，不這麼做是行不通的。
So work like a bull, I guess ... and always have fun. And all the accolades don't mean anything without your friends and your family to share with. So Thank You to them as well for being here together, and always.
最後，像老黃牛一樣工作，並且保持快樂。另外，我還想說，如果你不能把這份快樂跟你的朋友、家人分享的話，那麼所有的讚美都是沒有意義的。所以，我要感謝今天出席典禮的朋友和家人。
Ladies and Gentlemen, Good morning! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.
Man’s life is a process of growing up, actually I’m standing here is a growth. If a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then I grow up along with these choices. Once I hope I can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know I come here, now I wonder what the future holds for me.
When I come to this school, I told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. Following I will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job.
Once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” I will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these process I will combine learning with doing. If I can achieve this “future”, I think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.
How to say future? Maybe it’s a nice wish. Lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.
Good morning,ladies and gentleman. I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short y my topic is “The older I grow,the more I learn”. I hope you will like it. ,
How times flies! After saying goodbye to my happy primary school life,I become a junior school student.I know there`s always so much work to do and also much trouble I have to face.
In school,I have to take a lot of are interesting while some are it's the responsibility of the students to leam them all well. I have to try my best to finish ng my growing time,a lot of trouble worried 's awful and makes me blue.
Although I met with a lot of failure, I still have a lot of gains.I can make a priceless freiendship. I can leam a large number of usful things,such as being kind,friendly to others, being confident and independent and so on. I think growing pains and gains are they actually play an important role in my life and make my life colourful.
Since then, I become a junior high school has a semester. Look back this semester, heart is produced many feeling. This semester experience of each day, already in my heart left permanent marks, because these marks witness I such a new growth. Now I find myself seem to understand a lot of things, but closely studied and not exactly. Perhaps after also will laugh at the small, but now we have to smile back what we pass through the road. The exam, I summarized the following the intravenous drip:
In the study, I know the importance of studying. I think facing knowledge is power, leaving the knowledge will be a useless wreck. High school are learning modern scientific knowledge of the golden age, I should take this opportunity, using knowledge to arm themselves mind, knowledge is priceless.
To arrange time properly adjust schedules, allocation of good study, work, entertainment time. Time is the prerequisite and foundation study, efficiency and method is more important. Next, want to quality and quantity of completed teacher the assignment, seriously exam, pre-exam study hard.
Active reading, expand own aspect of knowledge seize bit time to study. Often raised questions, discussing with classmates, ask the teacher for advice, Well, teacher-student relationship between teachers and students get along closer together, In the mid-term exam, although feel good, but still not ideal place, still need to continue to work hard, losing their own learning. Knowledge has no limits, explore endless, the person's development also no limits, I still have a lot of knowledge to learn.
I want to make sure that future development goal, I also want to have confidence in the future. Of course, this requires painstaking training of teachers and schoolmates sincere help
I have to try.
ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i?m very glad to stand here and giveyou a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , andfound 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 freshnessit is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of theappetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we growold by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul y , 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 ofwonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the gameof living . in the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and powerfrom men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
when the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but aslong as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you maydie young at 80. that?s all ! 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 is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where youare going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and takeyour life to a totally unprecedented level! You know all this is real as long asyou are confident,passionate and committed! And you are confident, you arepassionate, you are committed!
You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions,using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and asking new will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you willshow your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take. You willfocus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. Youwill never succumb to challenges of hardships. You will never waver in yourpursuit of excellence. After all,you are the best, and you deserve the best!
As your coach and friend, I can assure you the door to all the best 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, you must never fear. I know you must doit, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!
Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out: I mustdo it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! Iwill do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I willsucceed!
Chinese New Year is the most important festivity for the Chinese people. Itis also called the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year.
Every year has an animal’s name. These animals are the rat, ox, tiger,rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. A Chineselegend says that these twelve animals had a race. The first year was named afterthe rat, the winner. The other eleven years were named after the order in whichthe animals arrived in the race. The clever rat jumped onto the ox’s back thenat the end jumped over the ox’s head to arrive first!
The Chinese believe that a person born in a particular year has some of thecharacteristics of animal.
On Chinese New Year’s Eve all family members enjoy a big, delicious is very important for the Chinese to be with their families on this is always part of the dinner because it represents abundance.
On New Year’s Day all Chinese children wear new clothes with bright is considered a lucky color. Parents and relatives give children thetraditional New Year’s gift called lucky money. This money is put into brightred and gold envelopes. Fill under the pillow. in the morning of new year , thekid wakes up to see the “lucky money”, express that oneself become one yearolder. Red is a traditional color for festivals, celebrations, weddings andbirthdays.
The lion dancers are always part of the festivities. The lion has a bighead and long body made of cloth. The lion dance is accompanied by drums,cymbals and noisy firecrackers. According to ancient traditions the great noisefrightens away evil spirits.
The dragon is the most important figure of the Chinese New Year festivitiesand parades. The dragon is considered a lucky figure. A parade dragon can be 20to 30 meters long! Sixty or more men move under a long cloth that represents thedragon’s tail.
During the parade children represent the animals of the Chinese e are also acrobats and musicians in beautiful costumes.
Happy New Year!
Chinese cities should close schools, cut working hours and stop outdoor activities during the most severe spells of air pollution, the ministry of environmental protection has said.
"Every possible compulsory measure" must be taken to cut emissions during the heaviest smog – including suspending factory production and imposing traffic restrictions.
The ministry's guidelines, issued in a circular, come as China grapples with frequent choking smog in its big cities, a consequence of years of breakneck economic growth that has fuelled public anger.
State media recently reported that an eight-year-old girl who lived near a busy thoroughfare in the coastal province of Jiangsu had been diagnosed with lung cancer. The case of the girl, believed to be the country's youngest lung cancer patient, has sparked a public outcry.
Despite frequent calls for cutting pollution over recent years, and growing public anger, the problem has only got worse. Schools and workplaces typically operate as normal in all but the most severe smog, even when it reaches hazardous levels.
Primary and middle schools suspended classes last month in the north-east city of Harbin during a smog emergency. The airport and some bus routes were also closed.
China must also toughen anti-pollution measures on industry and reduce its dependence on coal, which produces more than three-quarters of the country's electricity, the environment ministry said.
Public security departments should also toughen checks on vehicles, including phasing out older ones, and ensure there are not too many on the roads, it said.
China said in September it would slash coal consumption and shut down polluting mills, factories and smelters, though experts have said implementing the measures would prove difficult.
Air pollution is expected to worsen this winter because of a chronic natural gas shortage.
What life is about
As we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.
Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.
But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all, it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, we’ve added years to life, but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.
And these choices are what life is about.
生活的真諦
眾所周知，關於生活最重要的我們對待生活的態度，不同的人以不同的方式對待生活，一些人成功了，一些人失敗了。這裡有一些關於生活的帖士給我們大家。
生活不是為了保持高分，生活也不僅僅是你的鞋子、你的髮型和你的膚色。實際上，生活也不只是你擁有多少朋友，或者你是否孤獨;生活也不僅僅意味著你被別人接受與否。生活並不僅僅是這些。
但是，生活是關於你所愛的和你所傷害的那些人。生活就是你對自己的所有感覺。它是關於信任、幸福和包容。它是你對朋友的支援和如何用愛來融化內心的憎恨。生活就是遠離嫉妒、克服無知和建立信心。生活是關於你的言行和思想。
生活就是關注人的自身，而不是關注別人的擁有。而且我們必須記住保持我們的本色。雖然，生活的另一面令我們嚮往，但保持我們的本色是通往生活真諦的必由之路。總之，生活就是用你整個的生命去觸控其他人從未企及的選擇。 在生活的長河中也常常令我們困惑和矛盾，我們擁有越來越高大的建築，但我們也越來越缺乏耐心;我們購買的物質越來越多，但我們從中得到的快樂越來越少。我們學習如何活著但那卻不是生活;人類的壽命越來越長，但有意義的生活並因此而延長。因此，現在正是我們選擇使我們的人生變得不同凡響的時候了。國中英語演講稿這些選擇就是生活的真諦。

remember that second-grade "61" children's day, the school playground is now only one-third of the ground but not the plastic cement, as a result of the auction would be too crowded, i was squeezing the students fell. only heard "jenna" and say, i fall on the cement floor, and when i difficult to climb up from, it was found that the skin of the left knee has been frayed, blood flow quickly out, i slowly walked to the classroom, continue to spread the pain. at this time, met a lot of students said: "funny, how the?" "oh, you knee the frayed, tease, how to engage in, to, paper towels, put the stone around the wound erase it!" "oh, quick to the health room! "bork, bork, bork concerned with the students asked me. later, i was with a group of well-intentioned arm mounted x school went to the health room, xu teachers to help me carefully cleaning the wound, the medicine, i grinned in pain呲you want to cry, to comfort students, i hold back the tears. although not to the activities of the afternoon, and can only stay in the classroom, but my heart is still full and happy!
remember the tug-of-war a year ago, the decider in the final, we lost the power of the second seeded player disparity - 501 classes. what? we have failed, it is our experience of three tug-of-war's biggest setback, because we have never been defeated before, the situation was very tense, one-to-one level! we became a draw play, the final outcome of the board is scheduled! after all, we have the beginning of some sad, some resulting in decreased strength, but the thought of collective honor above all else, it once again full of confidence, full of energy on the floor of the "battlefield" "come on, come on!" cao teachers led the team pulling to one side cheering for us, we keep a stiff upper lip, were doing a full, good! rope has been moved to our side, increasing margins, and with the referees whistle out the other side of the rope of a song that we are all collapsed. "victory, victory!" we are lying on the ground cheered: "" five consecutive championships, five consecutive championships! "cao teachers face is flushed with excitement. yes, we have after some twists and turns ultimately on the strength once again won the first prize!
set of clothing, i have it hung in the closet where the most conspicuous, as it witnessed the first performance school!
remember the past primary school life, each touch of our unique memory of the clouds in the sky.
time flies, time flies, we are about to bid farewell to the division of friends of primary and secondary schools, secondary schools entered the door, bid farewell to the naive and innocent childhood into young and mature man.
beloved teacher, dear students, let us this precious child, locked in this beautiful emotion, the memory of the permanent collection that it!
Ilana Wexler's speech at 20xx
My name is Ilana Wexler. I'm 12 years old, and I am the founder of “Kids for Kerry.”
Kids for Kerry is a grassroots organization of kids that support John Kerry, want to help their futures, and get active in politics.
When my parents went to see Teresa Heinz Kerry speak, they told me that she was amazing! -- and that they thought John Kerry would make a great President. I decided to find out more about John Kerry. I talk about what I learned by using my ABCs.
“A” is America. John Kerry is a hero to America, and he will help our futures. He is a great and positive role model.
“B” is Better education. John Kerry wants to make class sizes smaller, so that children get the best part out of learning. He wants to help teachers because being a teacher is educating children, and letting them out into the world to do good things.
“C” is Compassion towards children. John Kerry wants to make sure that health care is not a privilege, but it is something that we can all afford.
This summer, I was supposed to go to my favorite camp. But instead, I decided to go to the John Kerry office every day. Kids can really help!
On , we have an interactive presidential quiz. There are 270 questions for the electoral votes John Kerry will win. Plus, 25 questions to make up for Florida from the last election.
Our next goal is to have a petition for “National No Name-Calling Day,” a day that the candidates don't say anything negative about one another. When our Vice President had a disagreement with a Democratic senator, he used a REALLY BAD word.
If I said that -- If I said that word, I would be put in a “time-out.”
I think he should be put in a time-out.
When I was 27 years old, I left a very demanding job in management consulting for a job that was even more demanding: teaching. I went to teach seventh graders math in the New York City public schools. And like any teacher, I made quizzes and tests. I gave out homework assignments. When the work came back, I calculated grades.
What struck me was that I.Q. was not the only difference between my best and my worst students. Some of my strongest performers did not have stratospheric I.Q. scores. Some of my smartest kids weren't doing so well.
And that got me thinking. The kinds of things you need to learn in seventh grade math, sure, they're hard: ratios, decimals, the area of a parallelogram. But these concepts are not impossible, and I was firmly convinced that every one of my students could learn the material if they worked hard and long enough.
After several more years of teaching, I came to the conclusion that what we need in education is a much better understanding of students and learning from a motivational perspective, from a psychological perspective. In education, the one thing we know how to measure best is I.Q., but what if doing well in school and in life depends on much more than your ability to learn quickly and easily?
So I left the classroom, and I went to graduate school to become a psychologist. I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings, and in every study my question was, who is successful here and why? My research team and I went to West Point Military Academy. We tried to predict which cadets would stay in military training and which would drop out. We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would advance farthest in competition. We studied rookie teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which teachers are still going to be here in teaching by the end of the school year, and of those, who will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students? We partnered with private companies, asking, which of these salespeople is going to keep their jobs? And who's going to earn the most money? In all those very different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success. And it wasn't social intelligence. It wasn't good looks, physical health, and it wasn't I.Q. It was grit.
Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.
A few years ago, I started studying grit in the Chicago public schools. I asked thousands of high school juniors to take grit questionnaires, and then waited around more than a year to see who would graduate. Turns out that grittier kids were significantly more likely to graduate, even when I matched them on every characteristic I could measure, things like family income, standardized achievement test scores, even how safe kids felt when they were at school. So it's not just at West Point or the National Spelling Bee that grit matters. It's also in school, especially for kids at risk for dropping out. To me, the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows, about building it. Every day, parents and teachers ask me, "How do I build grit in kids? What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic? How do I keep them motivated for the long run?" The honest answer is, I don't know. (Laughter) What I do know is that talent doesn't make you gritty. Our data show very clearly that there are many talented individuals who simply do not follow through on their commitments. In fact, in our data, grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent.
So far, the best idea I've heard about building grit in kids is something called "growth mindset." This is an idea developed at Stanford University by Carol Dweck, and it is the belief that the ability to learn is not fixed, that it can change with your effort. Dr. Dweck has shown that when kids read and learn about the brain and how it changes and grows in response to challenge, they're much more likely to persevere when they fail, because they don't believe that failure is a permanent condition.
So growth mindset is a great idea for building grit. But we need more. And that's where I'm going to end my remarks, because that's where we are. That's the work that stands before us. We need to take our best ideas, our strongest intuitions, and we need to test them. We need to measure whether we've been successful, and we have to be willing to fail, to be wrong, to start over again with lessons learned.
In other words, we need to be gritty about getting our kids grittier.
Thank you.

how do you master your youth?youthyouth 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 freshne; it is the freshneof the deep springs of life h means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. ts 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 s wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. worry, fear, self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to her 60 of 16, there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing cldlike 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 wirelestation: 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 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 k you!
good evening ,ladies and gentlemen:
thank you very much for choosing to come in such a cold y my topic is about choice and process.a research shows that a man has to make 73 choices one so many choices one day, people easily get so confused and afraid of making wrong choice that they hesitate and finally miss the true part of life. in my opinion, the following part is of much more importance than the choice. there is no absolute right or wrong choice but wonderful or boring life, which the process makes the difference.
life is a box of chocolate,you never know what you will get. forrest gump made no decision by and for himself but he accomplished great success with his strong will in the process. the process is not the road itself but the attitudes and feelings ,the caution, courage and persistance we have as we encounter new experience and unexpected obstacles. take myself as an example, i changed my major when i became a postgraduate. after the choice,days have been harsh for me.i cannot understand the new lessons at all. for they are closely related to mathmatics which i learned nothing about before. however wuth the belief that this is the great chance for me to experience new ideas and challenge myself,i persisted. i asked for help from every channel and reorgonized my life. gradually i could understand some parts and even found maths over, i learned to act instead of complaining. in retrospect,the choice left no trace in my mind but the happiness and bitterness of the past four months becomes an unforgetable experience in my life.
no matter what the choice is, enjoy the process. in the process, your potential will be inspired and new discoveries,improvement and progress will come to you. these are the most beautiful sceneries and only on the way can you see e make your life colorful.
there is no need and i donnot want to judge whether it right or wrong for me to be here,but i congratulate to myself for i gain and enjoy this fantastic experience. so my dear friends,never worry about your choice and enjoy the process. i am sure you will get something new and intersting tonight after you chose to come here. thank you!

去年夏天，我和家裡人去了北京。首先我們去了長城，因為它是我們中國的驕傲而且還是世界遺蹟。接著我們去了頤和園，我們在那裡看到很多美麗的風景。
第二天我們去了天安門廣場，吃了烤鴨。下午去了鳥巢和水立方。雖然很累，但是很開心。我學到了很多書本上沒有的知識。所以我不會忘記這次有趣的旅行。
I'm a student.I like eggs and use eggs is very good for me 's very coconut is a very sweet .I like them.
What about fruit?I like banana very na always grows in the warm area. it's nice to eat, and it is good for our healths. like us ,monkeys also like to eat bananas. you can see this in the zoo.

When I was seven, I started learning English. I played games and sang English songs with other children. Sometimes, I watched English cartoons. It's funny. Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington, because my cousin is over there. 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. Also I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, and the gardens in Suzhou. I will teaching people of the world about the beautiful language of our country.
I like the English language. To learn English is wonderful. I once wanted to be an English teacher . I also like Chinese literature. When I was really young, I was able to remember lots of poems. I also wanted to be a teacher of Chinese. Now I think that both of my dreams can come true: I will be able to use English to teach foreign friends Chinese and share Chinese culture with them. So that more and more people will be able to get to know the 5000 years' history culture, and the prosperity of our great China.
My future is not a dream. I am confident that it will come true.
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.
正如我們所知道的,我們會感到寂寞,如果我們還沒有一個朋友。但這並不意味著我們可以依靠我們的朋友。有個著名的格言說:‚一個朋友就像一個棉花棉絲被子,但真正的東西,是使你暖和是你自己的溫度。‚這是真的。我們必須努力同我們的朋友,互相激勵,互相幫助。當我們能收到更多的愛與友誼,我們應該償還高達就可以了。
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 heart
最後,讓我們一起祈禱了,有一天,我們都能找到我們想找的人,就可以享受一段美好友誼的真正左右我們的生活了。讓我們一起祈禱友誼之花卻成為我們的朋友,我們將永遠綻放鮮豔的在我們的心中
