East and West have met
runner-up: Rui Cheng gang, Foreign Affair College
Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen:
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 would argue that these meetings leave us with a choice between East and West ,but I believe 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 all worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.
But, do Western styles and values threaten our identity?
History makes it easy for us to think so-perhaps too easy.
Some people seem to think that adopting Western customs, such as a bride wearing white-which has long been a color of mourning in China, instead of the traditional Chinese red for her wedding, is another submission to foreign intervention,--a betrayal of our heritage, they say.
They fear that as we become "globalized", we will no longer be Chinese.
I do not agree.
History teachers that a strong and confident nation is at ease in hearing from the outside world.
The wedding of Eastern and Western cultures, whether in white gowns or red, brings us variety.
It is a rich banquet of special foods from all over the world.
As an amateur gourmet of Chinese cuisine, our superb flavours delight me.
But my Chinese taste appreciates food from any land.
I even allow the convenience of McDonald's a place in my life without giving up my good taste.
My grandfather taught me to hum tunes of Beijing opera from the time I was very young; they are deep in my spirit, part of my soul.
I love Beijing opera, because it always reminds me of who I am.
But I am also a fan of modern pop music, the No.1 fan of Spice Girls on campus.
of course, it goes far beyond food, music and dance. It goes into values and ways of thinking about the world.
Once upon a time, or so my teacher told me, a Chinese boy and an American girl had a squabble.
Both wanted to keep a bunny rabbit they had found in the garden.
Surely you've seen a rabbit sunning himself in the grass.
Nothing is more lovable, nothing more natural. No wonder they wanted him. The Chinese boy played his er-hu. Happiness and joy, longing and passion, filled the air. The little rabbit swayed gently and began to move his ears in the direction of the music. He liked what he heard.
The girl then took out her violin and played it to produce beautiful melodies of her own.
The rabbit began to bounce in her direction.
So intent were the children on their own music that neither paid the other any attention.
The competing melodies confused the little rabbit and he did not know which way to turn .Unable to attract the little creature, both children gave up ;they walked away, in different directions, leaving the rabbit. . .alone.
But, what if they listened ,what if they really heard each other's music, instead of always playing their own tunes?
When I hear the music of a violin ,rich with the joys of men and women who came together and sang and danced.. . I hear echoes of the music of the grass lands, of the hills, of the rivers...of my own native land.
Is music mine and yours, or is it ours?
What I want to hear is the er-hu and the violin played together, in rhythm and in tune. Together, we can produce new and beautiful music, rich with textures and sounds that can only be made in harmony.
The rabbit sits in the grass in the ever-warming sun. Waiting for us to play, waiting for the symphony to begin.
Will he have to wait forever? The choice is ours . Thank you.
尊敬的评委、女士们、先生们:吉卜林说过,“东方是东方,西方是西方,两者永不聚!”然而如今,在一个世纪之后,东西方相聚了。
它们在贸易中相聚,在教育中相聚,在艺术中相聚。
有人争论说这种东西方之聚,使得我们能够在东西方中作出选择.然而我相信最美好的未来在于东西方世界的创造性的结合,我们可以变西方的观念、习俗、技术为己所有,为己所用;我们可以享受两上不同世界之精华,总之,我们的传统之一就是择其精华,为己所用。
然而,西方的生活方式和价值会威胁到我们的民族特色吗?
历史让我们轻易相信——也许是太轻易地让我们相信此说了。
有人似乎认为彩西方习俗,比如新娘结婚穿白色婚纱,是对外国介入的屈服,是对传统遗产的背叛,因为按中国传统,结婚新娘要穿红色,而白色长期以来代表的是哀悼。
这些人担心一量我们变得全球化,我们也就不在是中国人了。
我不这样认为。
历史告诉我们:一个强大自信的民族学起外面的世界易如反掌 。
无论是穿白衣还是黑衣,还是东西方异质文化的联姻,都给我们带来多姿多采的生活。
东西方异质文化的联姻是一席来自世界各地佳肴的盛宴。
身为中国菜的业余美食家,我喜欢民族的佳肴。
然而我的中国口味也欣赏异国的风味。
生活中我为简便吃麦当劳,却不会放弃自己的良好口味。
从小祖父就教我哼唱京剧,京剧深入我的精神之中,成为我灵魂的一部分。
我热爱京剧,因为京剧让我总想起自己是谁。
但是我也迷恋现代流行音乐,在学校里还是“辣味女孩”的头号歌迷。
当然,异质文化的交流远不止于食物、音乐和舞蹈,它深入到价值观和世界观。 有一次老师给我讲了一个中国男孩和一个美国女孩发生争执的故事。
在花园里他们俩发现了一只小兔,两人都想要。
你肯定见过草丛中晒太阳的小兔。
没什么东西比小兔子更可爱的,更富有自然情趣了,难怪他们两人都想要它。
男孩拉起了二胡,愉快喜悦的琴声,充满了渴望和激情,回荡在空中,小兔子听着这音乐轻轻摇摆,耳朵转向音乐,它喜爱男孩的琴声。
女孩也取出小提琴,拉出悠扬的旋律。
小兔子听了朝她跑去。
两人都全神贯注于自己的音乐,丝毫没注意对方演奏的音乐。
交杂在一块的音乐困惑了小兔子,它不知该朝哪走。男孩和女孩都不能将小兔子吸引过来,只好放弃,各自走开了,扔下小兔子独自一人。
然而倘若他们倾听对方的音乐,而不是各自为歌,那么结果会如何呢?
当我听到小提琴声响起,男男女女走道一起又唱又跳,乐声中充满了欢乐, 此时我也听见了草原上、山谷间、小河旁传来得我们本民族的音乐的回声。
音乐分你我,还是属于我们大家?
我想听的是二胡与小提琴的合奏,旋律与节奏和谐一致。
大家一起才能创造出新颖动听音乐, 只有在和谐中大家才能创造出富有神韵的乐声。
在温暖的阳光中,小兔子在等待着我们一起演奏,等待着交响乐开始。
他有必要再永远的等下去吗?决择在于我们自己。谢谢。

Me and my Fears
Honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:
It is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful Saturday morning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the English language.
About a year and a half ago, I took part in my very first English Speech Contest. When I stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me, I could hardly speak. I stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling in vain for the right thing to say. My fears had paralyzed me.
While my passion for English has never changed, I lost my courage to speak in public. When my professor again encouraged me to take part in this Competition, I said “no.” I couldn’t endure yet another painful experience. He looked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. I will never forget his words. “Look,” he said, “We all have our fears, and you have yours. You could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraid to ever play again. Running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. A winner is not one who never fails,but one who never quits.”
I spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. Then I made the bravest and wisest decision of my life: I would face my fears – and take part in the competition!
As it turned out, my dear old professor was right. Now, here I am, once again standing before a microphone. My heart is beating fast, and my mouth is dry, but most importantly, I have faced my fears -- and that makes all the difference!
Thank you.
战胜恐惧
尊敬的评委,各位来宾,女士们先生们,我很荣幸在这个美妙的星期六早上来到这里,与你们分享我生命中一段特别的经历。
大概一年半以前,我参加了生平第一次演讲比赛。站在麦克风前,面对观众们期待的眼神,我竟紧张的说不出话来。那一刻,我是多么无助啊!
我对于英语的挚爱从未改变,但却从此失去了面对公众演讲的勇气。当老教授鼓励我参加希望英语风采大赛时,我拒绝了。他直视我的眼睛,说了一番令我终身难忘的话。“你瞧,”他说,“我们都有自己的恐惧。你可能会在一场篮球比赛中扭脚,并从此害怕再打球。你只能用行动去克服自己的恐惧,逃避是没有用的。生活中的成功者往往是永不放弃的人。”
我花了一整天时间思考他的话。 然后,我做出了一个勇敢而明智的决定: 我要参加中央电视台第五届“希望之星”英语风采大赛!
老教授是对的。我发挥出了自己的水平,一路杀进了全国总决赛。此时此刻,当我再一次站在了麦克风前,仍然心跳不止,但更重要的是,我终于能够勇敢地面对我的恐惧了,而这已足够了。

I Regain Confidence
I received a devastating blow to my self-confidence in the first interview of my college years. I applied to be a host in our Student Acting Troupe and felt confident that I would be accepted. But one of the panel members told me: "You seem inadequate and you are a little vertically-challenged." My life has never been the same since. I used bigger heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence. But no matter how hard I tried to look the part, there was still something missing.
As president of English Club, I organized the rehearsal of Snow White for an English party. Unfortunately, we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf. It had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in English. Suddenly, all eyes turned to me, and I knew I would have to be the dwarf. To my great surprise and delight, once on stage, I was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use. As the dwarf, I was a big hit.
Yes, each of us is only one among millions of others, but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique. Cultivating our individuality will transform our lives, making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures.
A world deprived of diversity would be a bland and boring place. The real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly, but having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model cool boy or a flawless charming girl.
Given a choice, I would rather be ugly than live in such a world. I'd rather be a genuine dwarf accompanying a Snow White than be a Snow White among nothing but Snow Whites. I would rather be myself. I would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more diverse universe. Please, be yourself.
我重树信心
大学生活的几年里,当我参加第一次面试时,我的自信心受到了沉重的打击。我向“学生剧团”申请出演一个主角,而且我十分自信地认为我会被录用。但是,其中有个剧团成员告诉我:“你似乎不太合适出演这个角色,因为你的身高有点问题。”我从未遇到过这种情况。我穿着高跟鞋来弥补我的身高,采用心理策略和技巧来掩盖自己信心的缺乏。但是,不论我怎样努力进入角色,感觉还是缺少些什么。
作为英语俱乐部的主席,我为英语晚会组织排演了《白雪公主》短剧。不幸的是,我们找不到合适的人选出演最后一个小矮人。这个角色必须生性幽默,英语流利。突然,所有人的目光都转向了我,我知道那个小矮人就是我了。让我极度奇怪而又高兴的是,一上台,我完全投入到演出中,而且我那幽默的天性被发挥得淋漓尽致。作为一个‘’小矮人”,我取得了巨大的成功。
的确,我们中的任何一个人都是千百万中的一员,但我们中的每个人都是一个与众不同的个体。发挥我们自己的个性会改变我们的生活,使它们成为美丽的万花筒。
失去了多样性的世界是个冷漠、乏味的地方。真正的悲剧不是个矮、害羞或丑陋,而是将自己的个性迷失在一个克隆的世界里,那里到处都是典型的酷男孩或无瑕、迷人的好姑娘。
如果让我选择,我宁可面貌五陋,也不愿生活在这样一个世界里。我宁可做一个伴随“白雪公主”的真实的小矮人,也不愿做“白雪公主”世界里的一个白雪公主,而随波逐流。我宁可作为一个真实的自我而出现。我愿将自己独特的、与众不同的色彩奉献给多姿多彩的世界。“走自己的路,让别人去说吧!”

Good morning:
Honorable judges, dear teachers and close friends. I’m very glad to stand here to share my speech with you. Today I’m going to talk about Love and Take care of Nature.Each life on the earth has a long and touching evolutionary story. From the origin, the lives of the human being are equal to those of others; they both are the composing parts of Mother Nature. Nevertheless, for some inexplicable reasons, the human becomes the spirits of all creatures. Of course, it is the result of the evolution, but still we should be grateful to all our companions in nature for the opportunity they offer. In spite of this, humans cannot live without earth.
They live on the earth, drink the sweet water, and enjoy the sunshine, the air, the sky, the fruit; the grains utilize the energy and so on. In a word, the human being cannot live without nature, and Mother Nature makes us grow stronger. I do not like the word "Pet", but preferring the word "Animal" instead. I have been loving animal since I was just a little boy. When thinking of the "Pet Fashion", I always feel much annoyed. For the animals will be given a shackle and lose their liberty if they become someone's pets. Their natural attribution can be deprived, too. Up to now, relying on their scientific power, the human have opened up too much and over developed nature, in order to fill up their growing appetites of wealth.
They destroy the balance of nature, however, they don't realize, their own development and existence will be threatened. Therefore, our sights should be focused on nature and we should try to develop the concept of "keeping human and nature in unity". We should lay emphasis on our education with consider cultural and natural emotion. To use the vivid example to wake up the conscience in people's hearts.
Thank you!

honourable judges and friends,
good morning! i am very glad to be here to share my college life with you .
two years ago, i came into this city of and started my college life , the most memorable journey of my life. i was just a shy and little girl that time. all the things seemed fresh to me: new faces, large library and physics lab etc. i breathed the air of college greedily, i was curious about everything.the class given by the teachers are excellent.they provide us with information not only from our textbook but from other sources as well.i actively involved in student union and varies of association. but soon i realized that i do not make full use of my spare time ,so i got a part-time job to help a junior student with math lessons besides,i also took part in activities concerning public welfare. we taught the kids there who could not afford school, i was deeply touched by their eagerness to learn, the precious experience with the poor kids made me aware of the responsibility on the shoulders of us--future teachers. the enrichment of experience taught me the significance of modesty,responsibility,tolerance,and perseverance.
and now i have been here two years. recalling to the two years, i think i have to talk about one thing--learning. learn how to study independently, learn how to get along with others, learn to love, learn to… oh, there are too much things we have to learn.
comparing with senior high school, college is a rather different place. there aren’t so many people to watch you and guide you how to do something any more, neither are there so many students who share with you one dream. in college, you must think and study yourself, so you have to learn and practice to control yourself.
another relationship in college is friendship. my roommates have lived two years with me. in these years, they forgive my faults, cry with me, laugh with me, play with me… they always stand with me and support me, i have learned a lot from them. i love them all and treasure the friendship with them.
in the next 2 years,i’ll try my best to and make great contributions to society! that’s my college life. i cherish all i have experienced in college. i love you, my college!
that’s all, thank you!

Love the Earth, caring for nature
I love the earth, love the home we live. Love her mountains, the fields are green and blue sky ... love her ...
In the fieldwork fragrance in flowers, butterflies and I play with a smile; in the lush forest, with birds I chase, singing; morning, I walked lightweight walking to the fields on the outing, mist shrouded with white yarn-like softly floating in the air. Suck in the flowers of aromatic, Yan enjoy the sun bathing, I was drunk inside this dream intoxicated; night, I sat in the fragrance of rice farmers in a small courtyard, looking up at bright stars, listening to cicadas Liao ring, frogs waves, feel like being in a fairy-tale kingdom. Spring, I sat in the back of cattle, in the endless prairie, Listen to the pastoral mild
Reed pipe melodious. Summer, I sat in the boat, oars beat any TV drama green lake, watching seagulls passing light to the vast lake; fall, I stood under the tree, and
concentrated look forward to a felled TV drama golden leaves fall; winter I stood by the window, admiring Ruxu snow flying in the air dancing. In this picturesque paradise, my heart is drunk through it!
Once upon a time, people Indiscriminate felling of trees, so that the ecological balance of nature destroyed. Swallowed a boundless expanse of fertile land dune, floods washed away a lovely home, nature's revenge for the human embarrassing burst. Mei Mizutani once said, there is no natural, no human beings, this is a big world, simple truth. Indulge in predatory nature, conquering nature, will destroy the ecosystem, only themselves to blame the plight of mankind brink. This is, indeed, indeed, the people do not stay to face natural, natural course, will not give burning our bridges, 98 floods, dust storms in 20xx, in fact, this is nature's warning to humanity.
Once upon a time, arbitrary arrest people indiscriminately kill so brutally trampled on
human friend. "A thousand mountains bird flew absolutely, 10,000 people disappeared off track", which is on the killing of animals, the most realistic portrayal of the consequences. Students injuries from bear incident to fool their wild hunting, whether human beings will make themselves at gunpoint? Remember that animal protection is equivalent to protect ourselves.
Once upon a time, the outbreak of war, so that devastated the planet we live. Fire on vegetation damage, destruction of nuclear radiation on life, despite the Hiroshima and Nagasaki mushroom cloud has been dispersed over a half a century, can there still is barren. This shows that peace is an important prerequisite for environmental protection of all mankind.
I can not imagine, if we continue like this, the world would be a kind of miserable scene it? Floor grass, dust filled the sky, mankind will be the screams of the devil into piles of bones. Then we can only say that human beings had once belonged to the Earth, but Earth will never again belong to mankind.
Gu has said that the world rise and fall of every man's duty. Protection of the environment and maintaining ecological balance of the historical responsibility to fall on the shoulders of our cross-century generation. Let us all come to love nature, love the earth bar, hand in
hand, shoulder to shoulder, heart to heart to set up an environmental protection of the embankment, the defense resources, defense of the environment, defend the Earth, to defend our beautiful homeland it!

As time goes by, people are being busier and busier with working, such as signing their contracts, meeting their customers, drawing up the balance sheets of their companies and so on. In this circumstance, people forget our most excellent skill--smile.
There are a great many kinds of power of smile. First of all, common touch can be showed by a kind smile. Imagine that you go to a company to attend an audition. With a confident smile, you are more likely to answer the question better. Furthermore, smile can eliminate angry. As a philosopher said, smile before you begin to get angry. The last but not the least, it reflects calm of a person when he is in danger or in trouble.
The beneficial aspects cannot be stated completely in this passage. But you can understand its power when you smile.

One of the legacies of receiving a world-class education is the sobering awareness of the inadequacy of our knowledge. Some years ago, one of the people I admire and respect most architect is Renzo Piano just turned 70 and I asked him what felt like. He said that, as much as he had thought about and prepared for that moment, it still came as a shock. Now I can attest to that feeling of shock but more than anything he said it made him feel that our proper lifespan should be 210 years, 70 to learn, 70 to do, and 70 to teach the next generation.
This lovely description captures an elementary fact of life: a good life has the feeling that we’re learning more and more as we go. And that we could do even better if we just learned a bit more. I hope that you are fortunate enough to carry that spirit of life with you and we must hope together that it continues to define this nation and the world. In the centuries ahead, on behalf of Columbia University, I extend to all our graduates the centennial class of 20xx warmest k you!

Failure is common in our real life.It is somthing that inevitable toeveryone.But people's attitudes failure differ.
To those pessimists, failure is just like a mountain lies before them andprevent them from walking forward.when they face it,they give up easily.Only onefailure is enough to make them feel sad,lose their hearts.As a result,they won'ttry again.In other words,they have been beaten by the failure totally.However tothose optimists,the attitude is quite opposite.In their eyes,one failure doesn'tmean anything,for it's just an experience that unavoidable on their way to thesuccess.Knowing this,therefore,they will never complain od feel sad.What theywill do is to calm down and find out the causes of their failures,then analysethem in order to avoid making the same mistake.
In my view, of course,I tend to the second attitude.actually,failure is akind of required course in our life.It is not an end but a start for us as longas we make good use of it.Thus, don't give up and give in.Remember,failureitself is not fearful.What matters is your attitudes towardsit.and?fragile.They?will?lose?in?great?pain?even?suicide.?At?this?question?which?argument?is?reasonable,i?have?my?own?ideas.At?first,i?hate?failure.But?Gold?take?no?cares?and?we?always?be?a?loser?at?last.However,we?cannot?be?beat?by?the?failure,we?should?find?the?problem?solution?on?the?basic?of?failure?and?overcome?the?difficulty.?Only?in?this?way?can?the?failure?play?a?good?role.

Hi,everyone.Today my topic is about environmental protection.
Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue. The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded.
We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, life on earth cannot survive.
Pollution has been a serious problem for a certain time around the world. There are many causes for it. Transportation is the main factor of pollution. When the waste gas from cars is released, the air is polluted. People breathing in the polluted air can develop respiratory disease. Another factor is that
people throw their garbage everywhere. All kinds of garbage not only spoil the splendid environment, but also cause environmental pollution. Wastewater from factories is also poured into rivers and this causes water pollution
Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection. Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air, forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution.
Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems. People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems, to use modern methods of birth control, to conserve our natural resources and recycle our products. We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future.
OK,we have known that we can prevent pollution if everyone makes the efforts. So,let’s do it now . That's it.Thank you everyone!
. 今天,我们的自然环境质量已经成为一个重要问题。世界人口增长如此之快,世界已变得过于拥挤。
我们正在利用我们的自然资源,同时污染的危险化学品的环境。如果我们继续做这个地球上,生活无法生存。
污染已经成为一定时期内时间范围内的一个严重问题。 原因很多,交通玉树是主要原因,当汽车排出废气时,空气就被污染了,人们呼吸了被污染的空气,会导致呼吸道疾病。 另外一个原因就是人们随处乱扔垃圾,不仅破坏了美观的环境,还污染了环境。工业废水也排入河流,引起水污染。
有关人士取得了一些在环境保护方面的进展。许多国家的政府已建立了法律,保护空气,森林和海洋资源,并停止对环境的污染。
但更应采取措施来解决环境问题。人们应该进一步的教育,认识到问题的重要性,使用现代节育方法,以保护我们的天然资源和循环利用我们的产品。我们相信,我们可以有一个更加美好,更清洁的地方。
This year's summer vacation was most enjoyable. I spent fifteen days helping my grandparents doing farm work in the countryside, where I saw mountains and fields covered with green plants. Sometimes I went swimming in the river to the west of the village, the water in which was quite clear.
I kept a diary every day. Besides doing farm work, I help the children in the neighborhood with their lessons. All of them showed much interest in English. They could read and write well, but they could hardly understand simple English. So every day in the morning I spent about two hours helping them improve their listening and spoken English. They all made great progress. Their parents all thought highly of me. I now realize that knowledge is very much needed in the countrysideThis year's summer vacation was most enjoyable.

Before you do everything, smile first.
When you need some help, you should say: ecuse me. at the same time,if you show your unhappy face, he will be unhappy too. how can you get the help while he has no pleasure7 so show your smile, and you will get his help.
In fact, smile is a difficult job. it seems very difficult for you to smile when you are sad. dont be afraid. make up your mind to try once, only once, and you will find that you are much better in heart.
Smile is also a kind of language which cannot be heard by anyone, but persons always know its meaning. when you meet your friends in the morning, smile means good morning ! when you fail, the friends smile means have another try ! so when you smile, although you dont say any word, you can understand:each other.
Remember to smile, and happy life youll get, i think!

At first, you must understand the meaning of climate change.
It means any long-term significant change in the average weather, which may include average temperature, precipitation, wind patterns and so on. For example, Australia is experiencing rapid climate change. Since the middle of the twentieth century, Australian temperatures have risen by about average one temperature degree with an increase in the frequency of heat waves and a decrease in the numbers of frosts and cold days.
Rainfall patterns have also changed, which means that the northwest has seen an increase in rainfall over the last fifty years while much of eastern Australia and the far southwest have experienced a decline. From this example, it indicates climate change that is occurring today has sped up, and affects long-term weather. The Earth’s climate is largely affected by how much heat is stored in the atmosphere. Furthermore, the climate change is caused by dynamic process on Earth, external forces including variations in sunlight intensity, and more recently by human activities.

Learning English with English speech is an essential activity. English speech, not only can we have learned into practice, more attractive to pass the language. Students to overcome the psychological barriers standing confidently express their feelings in English on the podium. Below this is an outstanding high school students English speech.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,!
I’m very glad to make a speech here. Today my topic is “I love you, China.” Since the day I was born, I began to have a proud name—Chinese. Since the day I began to talk, the most beautiful sentence I’ve ever learnt has been “I love you, China!” I love you, China, and I’m so proud of being a Chinese. I’m proud that I’ve got the beautiful yellow skin, black eyes and black hair. I’m also proud that I speak the most beautiful language in the world—Chinese. I love you, China, for I can feel the deep love you give me every day, every minute. Last year, I got an opportunity to visit the United States of America. During my staying there, my father’s boss once invited my family to dinner. While at , he looked at me and asked: “Little boy, how long have you been in America?” “About a month,” I answered, “How lucky you are!” he said, “If you were living in China, how could you learn such perfect English?” I smiled and told him proudly that all the students in China are able to learn English at school. I saw his surprised eyes and said to myself, “I’m proud of you, China ”.
Thank you for your listening!

Ladies and Gentlemen:
My topic is Honesty.
As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story.
65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure.
He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his conscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 20xx, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome.
When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error.
Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.
Thank you.

At that time, we just like love their children love them, they create a love carefully for the environment, to help them overcome the fear and distrust. Mr. Lu xun has words: "education is rooted in love." Love is the source of education, the teachers have love, just can use to find the bole, students for their education object with faith and love, would have the spirit of striving for excellence and innovation spirit, only in love, on the basis of the teachers will put all his strength, the will of the youth, and wisdom

Through observation, the child in the class very lonely, because she's poor ability, playing games, with the other kids can cooperate, together with courage small, often by other children bullying. I think maybe this communication failure, serious dampened her little heart, the children got into the garden phobia naturally. Find the "symptoms" after, I will treat, often in her class.

Hello, everybody! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, everybody. All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat. How is everybody doing today? (Applause.) How about Tim Spicer? (Applause.) I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia. And we’ve got students tuning in from all across America, from kindergarten through 12th grade. And I am just so glad that all could join us today. And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host. Give yourselves a big round of applause. (Applause.)I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school. And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it’s your first day in a new school, so it’s understandable if you’re a little nervous. I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now -- (applause) -- with just one more year to go. And no matter what grade you’re in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling. When I was young, my family lived overseas. I lived in Indonesia for a few years. And my mother, she didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday. But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the , as you might imagine, I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early. And a lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she’d say, "This is no picnic for me either, buster." (Laughter.)So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school. But I’m here today because I have something important to discuss with you. I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world -- and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed. That’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself. Every single one of you has something that you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide.

Our new president Xi Jinping came up with the dream of the Chinese nation's rejuvenation on December 29, 2019. He said: the Chinese dream is a dream of national strength prosperity and people's happiness. Our people have an ardent love for life. They wish to have better education, more stable jobs, more income, greater social security , better medical and health care, improved housing conditions and better environment,They want their children to grow well, have ideal jobs and lead a more enjoyable life. To meet their desire for a happy life is our mission."
He also expounded his views of realizing our great dream. He said: To realize the dream, China must take the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The country must also foster the Chinese spirit,in which patriotism and the spirit of reform and innovation play a core role, and unite 1.3 billion people of all ethnicities into a great source of strength.
I always ask myself what can I do for our great Chinese dream ? As we all know that the wiser the youths are ,the wiser the nation will be;the wealthier the youths are ,the wealthier the nation will be;the stronger the youths are ,the stronger the nation will be. Here the word wealthy means: enriching our knowledge reserve. As a new generation of science, every one here shouldering the great historical mission of making china powerful and strong. You may say that this may exaggerate our role, but I want to say you are wrong. If I am a little screw our great dream may be a multifunction and complex machine. Through this example I just want to say I am very tiny but I am indispensable .
President Xi also said: We must make persistent efforts, press ahead with indomitable will, continue to push forward the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and strive to achieve the Chinese dream of great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.We are closer than in any other time of history to the goal of rejuvenating the Chinese nation. We are more confident and capable of achieving this goal than in any other period of history," “.””
I believe that as long as all of our university students unite together and perform our own functions that study hard in school and work hard after we graduating from university . we must be able to achieve our great dream meanwhile enrich ourselves unwittingly! lets us unite together to realize Chinese nation's great rejuvenation to struggle!

Distinguished parents: good afternoon ladies and gentlemen thank you for your time to attend today's symposium today to attend the parents of the child belong to different degrees of obesity children's parents. Hope that through today's lecture help parents and children. As people living standard unceasing enhancement parenting and children's dietary structure changes nutrient rich combined with the only child's special status and unscientific feeding incidence of childhood obesity is gradually increasing. We are beginning to realize that: childhood obesity is not a lovely sign obese children in the study character and life and so on various aspects will have a lot of inconvenience. Thick Samuel therefore we should not rain completes the relevant publicity and education work take the necessary preventive measures in order to effectively control the occurrence ji. Kindergarten is important place the growth of preschool children's life so make good FeiPanEr project management and the prevention and control work is our kindergarten care teachers bounden duty.
In order to reduce and prevent children get fat we together with parents to discuss several problems: such as: what is the simple obesity? Simple obesity causes? Standards of obesity? Obesity can bring what harm? How to treat and so on. 1 what is the simple obesity? Obesity is due to the heat energy metabolic disorders the consumption of calories more than heat cause the body fat accumulation.
Childhood obesity has two season:
(1) infancy (that is within one year of age). In infancy the activities of the child is small have a long sleep eat nutritious food and some parents give their children eat don't control children eat a cry to him so it is easy to cause obesity. In infancy is fat children in two or three years later with the increase of children range range expansion obesity can be improved. But there are also children continue to get fat has maintained into adulthood.
(2) the early school age (i.e. 5-8 years). Moderate above simple obesity of children age began to get fat is mostly in the 5 s the obesity of children this period is mainly caused by bad way of life: on the one hand the traditional diet habits in affects children if eat and drink too much eating and drinking; On the other hand the western dietary patterns are interfered with domestic children's diets such as too much sweet food and western fast food drink soft drinks cause excessive intake of calories and exercise less over a long period of time. As a result the extra calories to fat obesity. In obese children in China we found that obese children love to eat all kinds of meat sweet love to drink good appetite eat fast don't want to eat vegetables. Cause the cause of obesity in addition to the thermal energy intake too much too little exercise meditation time too long wait for a reason genetic endocrine disorders can also cause obesity.
2 simple obesity causes?
(1) genetic factors. According to the relevant information the parents have the obesity the possibility of children obesity has 32 ~ 34%; Both parents are obese the incidence of child obesity increased to 50 ~ 60%. On the other hand 72% of fat children parents have at least one person also have obesity. And now have found a variety of genes associated with obesity.
Diction is eating too much and overnutrition. Obese children tend to eat a lot of high fat food sweet food especially the unlimited access to eat snacks and drink sweet drinks and these can cause obesity.
(3) movement. Parents were busy with work no time to accompany children play together always let the children stay at home such as TV children can not get enough exercise gradually becomes less physical static activities more and more such as watching TV playing video games and so on these can make children reduce activity fat growth. Fat kid inactivity inactive children become more fat the result is a vicious circle.
(4) parents have the wrong idea. Especially the parents of obese children think children as long as can eat is a good thing so the easiest way to produce a obese children.
(5) the poor eating habits. Investigation shows that the more the more obese likes to eat meat don't like to eat vegetables such as child piddle parents aren't paying attention. In addition children inadvertently desperately eat more snacks get into the habit of snacking so poor eating habits will appear fat. So for children's obesity should be in many ways to find the reason targeted for treatment.

People returning to work after a career break: I call them relaunchers. These are people who have taken career breaks for elder care, for childcare reasons, pursuing a personal interest or a personal health issue. Closely related are career transitioners of all kinds: veterans, military spouses, retirees coming out of retirement or repatriating expats. Returning to work after a career break is hard because of a disconnect between the employers and the relaunchers. Employers can view hiring people with a gap on their resume as a high-risk proposition, and individuals on career break can have doubts about their abilities to relaunch their careers, especially if they've been out for a long time. This disconnect is a problem that I'm trying to help solve.
有些人经过离职长假之后 重新投入到工作中来, 我称他们为“再从业者”。 这些人选择休离职长假, 有些是要照顾老人, 有些是要照顾孩子, 也有些是追求个人爱好, 或是健康因素。 各行各业转业的人 都与之紧密相关: 退伍军人、军嫂, 退休返聘的人, 或遣返回国者。 离职长假后重返工作 是非常困难的, 因为雇主和再从业者之间 有了隔阂。 雇主们认为,雇佣这些 简历上工作时间不连贯的人 是风险极高的决策, 而正在离职长假中的人 可能对自己再从业的能力产生疑虑, 特别是那些离职时间较长者。 两者间的缺乏联系 是我在尝试解决的问题。
Now, successful relaunchers are everywhere and in every field. This is Sami Kafala. He's a nuclear physicist in the UK who took a five-year career break to be home with his five children. The Singapore press recently wrote about nurses returning to work after long career breaks. And speaking of long career breaks, this is Mimi Kahn. She's a social worker in Orange County, California, who returned to work in a social services organization after a 25-year career break. That's the longest career break that I'm aware of. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor took a five-year career break early in her career.
如今,我们在各行各业 都能见到成功的再从业者。 这位是萨米·科法拉, 他是英国的一位核物理学家, 因为要在家照顾五个孩子 而度过了五年的离职长假。 新加坡的媒体最近发表了文章, 内容是有关离职长假后再从业的护士。 提到长时间的离职假期, 这位是米米·卡恩, 她是加州奥兰治县的一位社工, 她在度过20xx年的离职长假后 回到了一个社会服务组织工作。 这是据我所知最长的离职假期。 最高法院法官桑德拉·戴·奥康纳, 在其职业生涯早期 度过了五年离职长假。
And this is Tracy Shapiro, who took a 13-year career break. Tracy answered a call for essays by the Today Show from people who were trying to return to work but having a difficult time of it. Tracy wrote in that she was a mom of five who loved her time at home, but she had gone through a divorce and needed to return to work, plus she really wanted to bring work back into her life because she loved working. Tracy was doing what so many of us do when we feel like we've put in a good day in the job search. She was looking for a finance or accounting role, and she had just spent the last nine months very diligently researching companies online and applying for jobs with no results.
这位是特蕾西·莎碧罗, 她度过了20xx年的离职长假。 特蕾西答复了从“今日秀”节目观众中 征集到的问题, 他们想要重返工作, 却发现很难做到。 特蕾西写道:自己是五个孩子的母亲, 也很享受居家的时间, 但是她历经了一次离婚, 并且急需回到工作状态, 另外,她很想把工作 带回她的生活中, 因为她也很享受工作。 特蕾西也曾做过 我们很多人所做的事, 每天不停的搜寻合适的工作。 她找过财经、会计领域的职位, 她在那之前花掉了九个月时间, 很努力地调查网上的公司, 然后投放简历,却一无所获。
I met Tracy in June of 20xx, when the Today Show asked me if I could work with her to see if I could help her turn things around. The first thing I told Tracy was she had to get out of the house. I told her she had to go public with her job search and tell everyone she knew about her interest in returning to work. I also told her, "You are going to have a lot of conversations that don't go anywhere. Expect that, and don't be discouraged by it. There will be a handful that ultimately lead to a job opportunity."
我在20xx年六月见到了特蕾西, 那时“今日秀”节目 问我可否与她合作, 看我能不能帮她走出困境。 我告诉特蕾西的第一件事, 就是她必须走出家门。 我告诉她,她必须 公开自己求职的想法, 然后告诉她认识的所有人, 自己再从业的强烈意愿。 我还告诉她, “有很多你参与的对话 是对你完全没有帮助的。 你要做好心理准备, 别因为那些而灰心丧气。 找到工作机会之前, 确实要经历很多琐事。”
I'll tell you what happened with Tracy in a little bit, but I want to share with you a discovery that I made when I was returning to work after my own career break of 11 years out of the full-time workforce. And that is, that people's view of you is frozen in time. What I mean by this is, when you start to get in touch with people and you get back in touch with those people from the past, the people with whom you worked or went to school, they are going to remember you as you were before your career break. And that's even if your sense of self has diminished over time, as happens with so many of us the farther removed we are from our professional identities. So for example, you might think of yourself as someone who looks like this. This is me, crazy after a day of driving around in my minivan. Or here I am in the kitchen. But those people from the past, they don't know about any of this. They only remember you as you were, and it's a great confidence boost to be back in touch with these people and hear their enthusiasm about your interest in returning to work.
我稍后再告诉你们 特蕾西是如何处理的, 我想先跟大家分享 我的一个发现, 那时我刚刚回到工作中, 结束了自己离开全职工作大军 20xx年的长假。 这个发现就是, 人们对你的印象凝固在过去。 我的意思是, 当你再次开始与人打交道, 与曾经合作过的人重新接触, 例如跟你一起上学、工作过的人, 他们对你的印象是 离职长假之前的你。 我们的自我意识 随着时间推移逐渐淡化, 我们很多人都会这样, 我们距离我们的职业身份 也就越来越远。 举个例子, 你可能把你自己看成这样。 这就是我,开了一天小面包车, 整个人感觉很疯狂。 这是我在厨房里的样子。 但是从前的那些人, 他们对这些一无所知。 他们只记得你曾经的样子, 当你重新与这些人沟通时, 真是大大的增强了自信心, 而且他们对你有再从业的兴趣 感到非常的开心。
There's one more thing I remember vividly from my own career break. And that was that I hardly kept up with the business news. My background is in finance, and I hardly kept up with any news when I was home caring for my four young children. So I was afraid I'd go into an interview and start talking about a company that didn't exist anymore. So I had to resubscribe to the Wall Street Journal and read it for a good six months cover to cover before I felt like I had a handle on what was going on in the business world again.
我还清晰地记得发生在 我离职长假中的一件事。 那时我几乎完全不关注经济新闻。 我曾是财经行业出身, 然而我在家照顾四个孩子时, 我几乎不关注任何的新闻。 所以我很害怕, 自己去参加面试的时候, 会讲到一个不复存在的公司。 所以我重新订阅了华尔街日报, 然后连续看了六个月, 之后我才觉得自己对经济 又有了点解了。
I believe relaunchers are a gem of the workforce, and here's why. Think about our life stage: for those of us who took career breaks for childcare reasons, we have fewer or no maternity leaves. We did that already. We have fewer spousal or partner job relocations. We're in a more settled time of life. We have great work experience. We have a more mature perspective. We're not trying to find ourselves at an employer's expense. Plus we have an energy, an enthusiasm about returning to work precisely because we've been away from it for a while.
我相信再从业者是 劳动大军中的精英, 原因如下。 想想我们人生的阶段: 对于那些因为要照顾孩子 而休离职假期的人, 大都没有产假,或是产假很短。 我们早就做过这些了。 我们离婚率较低, 也很少因伴侣而调整工作。 我们的生活更稳定。 我们有很棒的工作经历, 更成熟的眼光, 我们不会成为雇主的牺牲品。 此外,我们有一种能量 - 重返岗位的热情, 正是因为我们离职一段时间了。 另外,我也跟雇主讨论,
On the flip side, I speak with employers, and here are two concerns that employers have about hiring relaunchers.
以下是雇主们 关于雇佣再从业者的两个担忧。
The first one is, employers are worried that relaunchers are technologically obsolete. Now, I can tell you, having been technologically obsolete myself at one point, that it's a temporary condition. I had done my financial analysis so long ago that I used Lotus 1-2-3. I don't know if anyone can even remember back that far, but I had to relearn it on Excel. It actually wasn't that hard. A lot of the commands are the same. I found PowerPoint much more challenging, but now I use PowerPoint all the time. I tell relaunchers that employers expect them to come to the table with a working knowledge of basic office management software. And if they're not up to speed, then it's their responsibility to get there. And they do.
其一,雇主担心这些再从业者 技术方面比较落后。 我可以告诉各位, 虽然有段时间我自己技术确实落后, 但那只是暂时的。 很早以前我用“莲花123”软件 来做财经分析, 我不知道有没有人还记得 那么早以前的事了, 这些技能我得在 Excel上重新拾起。 其实这并并非难事, 很多的操作指令是一样的。 我发现PowerPoint更具挑战性, 但现在我对PowerPoint驾轻就熟。 我告诉再从业者们, 雇主希望找工作的人 对基本的办公管理软件 有实践经验。 如果他们操作速度不够快, 那他们就必须变得更高效。 而他们确实做得到。
The second area of concern that employers have about relaunchers is they're worried that relaunchers don't know what they want to do. I tell relaunchers that they need to do the hard work to figure out whether their interests and skills have changed or have not changed while they have been on career break. That's not the employer's job. It's the relauncher's responsibility to demonstrate to the employer where they can add the most value.
雇主对再从业者的第二种忧虑, 就是他们担心再从业者 不清楚他们想要做什么。 我告诉再从业者, 他们必须仔细研究, 了解自己的爱好或者技能 在离职长假的过程中 是否发生了变化。 这不是雇主的职责。 这个是再从业者的责任, 把自己展现给雇主, 来充分展示自己可创造的价值。
Back in 20xx I started noticing something. I had been tracking return to work programs since 20xx, and in 20xx, I started noticing the use of a short-term paid work opportunity, whether it was called an internship or not, but an internship-like experience, as a way for professionals to return to work. I saw Goldman Sachs and Sara Lee start corporate reentry internship programs. I saw a returning engineer, a nontraditional reentry candidate, apply for an entry-level internship program in the military, and then get a permanent job afterward. I saw two universities integrate internships into mid-career executive education programs.
20xx年,我开始注意到一件事。 我从20xx年开始追踪 人们重返岗位的情况, 然而在20xx年,我开始注意到, 一种短期、带薪的工作机会开始出现, 不论它是不是名叫“实习”, 但总之是一个很像实习的经历, 这为重回岗位的专业人士 开辟了一条道路。 我看到高盛和莎莉集团 都开始了此类 二次从业的实习项目。 我看到一个再从业的工程师, 算是不太传统的再从业人士, 申请了一个 军方的初级实习项目, 后来他获得了一个永久的工作。 我看到两所大学 将实习项目整合到 职业中期管理学教育项目中。
So I wrote a report about what I was seeing, and it became this article for Harvard Business Review called "The 40-Year-Old Intern." I have to thank the editors there for that title, and also for this artwork where you can see the 40-year-old intern in the midst of all the college interns. And then, courtesy of Fox Business News, they called the concept "The 50-Year-Old Intern."
于是,就我所观察到的现象, 我写了一篇报告, 后来它发表在了 《哈佛商业评论》中, 名字叫《40岁的实习生》。 我必须得感谢编者拟的标题, 还有这个很棒的配图, 你们可以看到那个40岁的实习生 出现在一群大学实习生中。 后来,还得感谢福克斯商业新闻, 他们把这个概念称为 “50岁的实习生”。
So five of the biggest financial services companies have reentry internship programs for returning finance professionals. And at this point, hundreds of people have participated. These internships are paid, and the people who move on to permanent roles are commanding competitive salaries. And now, seven of the biggest engineering companies are piloting reentry internship programs for returning engineers as part of an initiative with the Society of Women Engineers. Now, why are companies embracing the reentry internship? Because the internship allows the employer to base their hiring decision on an actual work sample instead of a series of interviews, and the employer does not have to make that permanent hiring decision until the internship period is over. This testing out period removes the perceived risk that some managers attach to hiring relaunchers, and they are attracting excellent candidates who are turning into great hires.
五家最大的金融服务公司 都设立了再从业实习项目, 专为重回岗位的金融精英。 截至目前,数百人参与了这些项目。 这些实习项目是带薪的, 而且那些晋升到永久岗位的人, 都有极具竞争力的薪资。 现在,七家最大的工程公司, 也在推行再从业实习项目, 来帮助重返岗位的工程师, 这也是女性工程师协会 新方案的一部分。 那么,为什么这些企业 大力支持再从业实习呢? 因为这种实习可以让雇主 基于参与者实际工作成效 来做出雇佣决策, 而非一系列的面试, 而且雇主不必在实习结束之前 就做出永久雇佣的决定。 这段试验期消除了一定的风险, 这关乎某些经理人 对雇佣再从业者的担忧, 同时,这也吸引了大量再从业人士, 他们成为了出色的雇佣对象。
Think about how far we have come. Before this, most employers were not interested in engaging with relaunchers at all. But now, not only are programs being developed specifically with relaunchers in mind, but you can't even apply for these programs unless you have a gap on your résumé.
各位,想一想我们取得的进步, 在此之前,大多数雇主 根本没兴趣与再从业者打交道。 然而现在,有许多项目在开展实施, 特别是针对再从业者的项目, 如果简历上没有一段空档期, 你根本不能申请这些项目。
This is the mark of real change, of true institutional shift, because if we can solve this problem for relaunchers, we can solve it for other career transitioners too. In fact, an employer just told me that their veterans return to work program is based on their reentry internship program. And there's no reason why there can't be a retiree internship program. Different pool, same concept.
这标志着一种实质变化, 一种真正的制度变革, 因为如果我们可以 为再从业者解决这个问题, 我们亦可为其他的职业转型者 解决同样的问题。 事实上,一位雇主刚刚告诉我, 他们的“退伍军人再从业项目”, 就是基于他们的再从业实习项目。 我们也没有理由不去设立 一个“退休人士实习项目”。 不同的对象,相同的概念。
So let me tell you what happened with Tracy Shapiro. Remember that she had to tell everyone she knew about her interest in returning to work. Well, one critical conversation with another parent in her community led to a job offer for Tracy, and it was an accounting job in a finance department. But it was a temp job. The company told her there was a possibility it could turn into something more, but no guarantees. This was in the fall of 20xx. Tracy loved this company, and she loved the people and the office was less than 10 minutes from her house. So even though she had a second job offer at another company for a permanent full-time role, she decided to take her chances with this internship and hope for the best. Well, she ended up blowing away all of their expectations, and the company not only made her a permanent offer at the beginning of 20xx, but they made it even more interesting and challenging, because they knew what Tracy could handle.
让我告诉你们特蕾西·莎碧罗 最后发生了什么。 各位回想一下, 她必须告诉她认识的每一个人, 自己对重返工作岗位很有兴趣。 结果,她与自己社区里的长辈 进行了一次关键的谈话, 这让她找到了一份工作邀请。 那是一个金融部门的会计工作。 但那是临时的。 公司告诉她, 有可能有岗位晋升的机会, 但是不能保证。 那是20xx年的秋天。 特蕾西很爱那个公司, 而且她喜欢那里的员工, 从办公室去她家只需10分钟。 所以即使她后来得到了 第二份工作邀请, 来自另一家公司, 而且有永久、全职的保证, 她决定在这份实习项目中冒冒险, 尽人事,听天命。 最后,她的业绩 远远超出了所有人的期望值, 公司不但提供了她永久岗位, 那是在20xx年初, 而且他们还让她的工作 更加有趣、有挑战性, 因为他们知道特蕾西可以办得到。
Fast forward to 20xx, Tracy's been promoted. They've paid for her to get her MBA at night. She's even hired another relauncher to work for her. Tracy's temp job was a tryout, just like an internship, and it ended up being a win for both Tracy and her employer.
时间快进到20xx年, 特蕾西获得了晋升。 公司为她的夜校工商管理课程买单。 她甚至雇佣了 另一位再从业者为她工作。 特蕾西的临时工作像是一个试验, 就像实习项目, 而最终,特蕾西和她的雇主 达到了双赢局面。
Now, my goal is to bring the reentry internship concept to more and more employers. But in the meantime, if you are returning to work after a career break, don't hesitate to suggest an internship or an internship-like arrangement to an employer that does not have a formal reentry internship program. Be their first success story, and you can be the example for more relaunchers to come.
我的目标是将这种 再从业实习的概念 推荐给越来越多的雇主。 但是与此同时, 如果你在离职长假后重返岗位, 别犹豫向雇主提议设立实习项目, 或者类似实习项目的想法, 特别是那些没有 正式的再从业实习项目的公司。 争当他们的第一个成功故事, 而你们都可以成为 未来更多再从业者的楷模。
Thank you.
谢谢大家。

in the matter of courage we all have our limits. there never was a hero whodid not have his bounds. i suppose it may be said of nelson and all the otherswhose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives whentheir bravery knew it had come to its limit.
i have found mine a good many times. sometimes this was expected--often itwas unexpected. i know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, butyou could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.
i never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. i should be atthe end of the room facing all the audience. if i attempt to talk across a roomi find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods i havepart of the audience behind me. you ought never to have any part of the audiencebehind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.
i'll sit down.

在勇气问题上,人人都有极限。从来就没有胆大包天的英雄好汉。我想,可以说,纳尔逊和所有那些被大量宣传的勇士,一生中都有勇气达到极限的时候。
我就多次发现自己的勇气到了极限。有时是意料之中的——经常是出乎意料的。我认识一个人.此君不怕与响尾蛇同寝,可你无法让他与保安剃刀共眠。
我从来就没有勇气在狭长房间的中央发表讲话。我得站在房间的一头,面对全体听众。如果我试图站在房间中央讲话,我就会不断地转身,这样,就不断有部分听众在我背后。你们永远不能让自己背后有听众;你们永远闹不清他们要干什么。
我得坐下了。

I speak tonight for the dignity of man and the destiny of democracy. I urge every member of both parties, Americans of all religions and of all colors, from every section of this country, to join me in that cause.
At times history and fate meet at a single time in a single place to shape a turning point in mans unending search for freedom. So it was at Lexington and Concord. So it was a century ago at Appomattox. So it was last week in Selma, Alabama. There, long-suffering men and women peacefully protested the denial of their rights as Americans. Many were brutally assaulted. One good man, a man of God, was killed.
There is no cause for pride in what has happened in Selma. There is no cause for self-satisfaction in the long denial of equal rights of millions of Americans. But there is cause for hope and for faith in our democracy in what is happening here tonight. For the cries of pain and the hymns and protests of oppressed people have summoned into convocation all the majesty of this great government -- the government of the greatest nation on earth. Our mission is at once the oldest and the most basic of this country: to right wrong, to do justice, to serve man.
In our time we have come to live with the moments of great crisis. Our lives have been marked with debate about great issues -- issues of war and peace, issues of prosperity and depression. But rarely in any time does an issue lay bare the secret heart of America itself. Rarely are we met with a challenge, not to our growth or abundance, or our welfare or our security, but rather to the values, and the purposes, and the meaning of our beloved nation.
The issue of equal rights for American Negroes is such an issue.
And should we defeat every enemy, and should we double our wealth and conquer the stars, and still be unequal to this issue, then we will have failed as a people and as a nation. For with a country as with a person, "What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"
There is no Negro problem. There is no Southern problem. There is no Northern problem. There is only an American problem. And we are met here tonight as Americans -- not as Democrats or Republicans. We are met here as Americans to solve that problem.
This was the first nation in the history of the world to be founded with a purpose. The great phrases of that purpose still sound in every American heart, North and South: "All men are created equal," "government by consent of the governed," "give me liberty or give me death." Well, those are not just clever words, or those are not just empty theories. In their name Americans have fought and died for two centuries, and tonight around the world they stand there as guardians of our liberty, risking their lives.
Those words are a promise to every citizen that he shall share in the dignity of man. This dignity cannot be found in a mans possessions; it cannot be found in his power, or in his position. It really rests on his right to be treated as a man equal in opportunity to all others. It says that he shall share in freedom, he shall choose his leaders, educate his children, provide for his family according to his ability and his merits as a human being. To apply any other test -- to deny a man his hopes because of his color, or race, or his religion, or the place of his birth is not only to do injustice, it is to deny America and to dishonor the dead who gave their lives for American freedom.
Our fathers believed that if this noble view of the rights of man was to flourish, it must be rooted in democracy. The most basic right of all was the right to choose your own leaders. The history of this country, in large measure, is the history of the expansion of that right to all of our people. Many of the issues of civil rights are very complex and most difficult. But about this there can and should be no argument.
Every American citizen must have an equal right to vote.
There is no reason which can excuse the denial of that right. There is no duty which weighs more heavily on us than the duty we have to ensure that right.
