Schoolmates:
When you look the lovable animated cartoon, plays is in a stew human’s computer games, rides the fast train, is answering transoceanic telephone time, ……Not only your might once realize the science the strength, the science changed this world, also changed our life, the science side us.
Opens for the 20th century the grand chapters, not only we discovered the humanity to experience the blood and the fire baptism in these hundred years, has created the innumerable scientific miracles. 19th century France famous science fiction writer of fiction verne fictionalizing, at that time let the human be inconceivable, he fantasized moon landing travel, the airplane, the long-range gun and so on, all 11 became the reality in the 20th century. In the 21st century today, the high tech is ubiquitous.
As cross-century one generation, how posture should we adapt the new century by, the load get up the new century heavy burden? Not only science and technology changing with each new day, causes the science to serve for the most advanced technique, also more and more many seeps to during ours daily life, this needs us who is in the young people time to deeply love the science, the study science. Participation science and technology “five small” competition, reading science and technology books, caused me to understand many truths. The precise robot, does not use the fuel the automobile, the hypothesized soccer game, high tech information transmission and so on, each one vivid interesting phenomena, aroused me to explore the science the desire.
Our each people all want to study the science, the dissemination civilization, while enjoys the new life, must create the new life, now, the technical product renewal speeds up unceasingly, the visible television, the computer surfer, the pacemaker, already did not calculate was fresh. Vacuum cleaner invented which from 1901, to the artificial earth satellite, carried the human spaceship, the science and technology demonstrates the formidable strength in the different domain. Electronic industry, communication technology daily popularization, nanotechnology, superconductivity material widespread application, soon one day, perhaps in yours dinner table, can appear likely bio-engineering foods and so on outer space green pepper, man-made beefsteak. Studies the science and technology, is not merely in order to become the scientist, also is for can adapt the life, more has been able to become the new century the master, the load gets up the new century, is the national construction, makes the contribution for the human culture.
Since new China had been established, our country’s technical development progresses by leaps and bounds, the synthesized insulin, finishes a job plants, the hybrid rice again, explodes atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, launch satellite and airship and so on, these technical achievement which focuses attention on the common people, reduced our country and the advanced countries science and technology disparity greatly, has poured into the vigor for our country’s modernization. Grandpa Deng Xiaoping said “the science and technology is the first productive forces”, indeed so, the science has ed the wing for our motherland soaring. Chairman once said to the youth that, the world was you, also is we, but is your in the final analysis. This speech, has been full of the elders to our earnest expectation. If the elders have constructed the 20th century motherlands with the industrious work, that, we should by the knowledge, get up the new century heavy burden by the scientific load.
Schoolmates, we are being at the growth developmental stage, the study science, lets us start since childhood. We must learn each kind of literacy class diligently, because this is all study foundation; At the same time, to each kind the popular science books, the publication which suits our elementary student to look, should better read some in the after school; Also should begin to do each science small experiment, the small manufacture positively, writes the science small paper and so on, raises to the science interest. Long this gets down, we can certainly deeply love the science, has the rich scientific knowledge. Humanity’s wisdom is infinite, regardless of is US’s Challenger number detonation, the whole world computer virus’ promotion, always all cannot prevent humanity’s advance in technology. “The knowledge is the strength”, Bacon this sentence enjoys great popularity the maxim did not know had driven how many earnestly seeks the knowledge human. Now, lets us also use it to encourage oneself, makes one to deeply love the science the new generation, the load gets up the new century heavy responsibility, for our motherland tomorrow, will compose a more magnificent poem!

Our country many cities have produced fog, the visibility is very low, so this time the traffic accident rate increases, we haven"t got the security guarantee.
Today, my home is also suffered heavy fog, the window of white, what also can"t see. My home is fog, the air quality is greatly decreased, in order to prevent the body health must wear a face mask to go out.
Today I walk on my way to school, the hateful haze let I almost hit against the tree. Pedestrians in a hurry to walk, large and small are wearing masks. Car kept honking, like to the accompaniment of dust, mist in the headlights, fog haze of dust in the dancing joyfully, from automobile exhaust vent curling into the sky, more than a piece of tail gas, is more than a haze, our safety is more dangerous.
Sky is not blue, trees are not green, white cloud is away, the culprit is the human oneself! Human ah! Return the previous green homes to us!

Homemade Ship
Hans Andersen, a life-long fisherman, had a dream. He wanted to sail around the world. And he did it. He got several sponsors who subsidized his trip. He bought a beautiful 40-foot yacht, with all the latest technical and safety gear, and had a pleasant voyage. Well, except for almost sinking while going around the tips of South America and Africa.
The voyage went so smoothly that, looking back on it, he felt it was too easy. He needed a new challenge. He decided to build his own boat. But that was nothing new. Several people had built their own boats and sailed them around the world. No, he needed a unique boat. Watching TV commercials one day, he got it—ice cream sticks! He would be the first man to sail around the world in a boat built exclusively of ice cream sticks.
He put out the word. Within three years, school children from all over Holland had sent Hans 15 million ice cream sticks. He used these sticks to build a 45-foot replica of a Viking ship. After all the sticks were glued together, Hans took his new boat out to sea on a one-week voyage. “It’s magnificent, and totally sea-worthy,” he proclaimed.
He plans to set sail in early 20xx with a crew of two. He will sail across the Atlantic to Canada, and then down to Florida and through the Panama Canal. Then he’ll travel to Los Angeles, Honolulu, Tokyo, around the tip of Africa, and back to Holland. “If this trip succeeds,” he joked, “my next goal will be to build a plane out of ice cream sticks and fly it around the world!”

Dear leaders, teachers and students:
Good evening,everyone!
Falling leaves and returning to their roots, that is to be grateful for the cultivation of soil; The suckling sheep kneels down to the mother, which is to be grateful for the feeding of the ewe. The grace of parents' upbringing, teachers' education, the cultivation of the country and the care of friends all need us to cherish with our lives, thank with our sincere hearts and repay with practical actions. This is what I call gratitude, gratitude to others.
Gratitude is a basic conjecture of life, an embodiment of the quality of life and the basis for the beauty of all life. Gratitude is a great wisdom in life, which can make us feel the beauty of nature and life, maintain our positive, healthy and sunny state of mind, and have gratitude. We will be less picky about others and more appreciative and grateful to the environment.
If you are not grateful, happiness is far away;
If you will be grateful, happiness will be full.
Students, let's always be grateful; Cherish every gift of life, report to others with our true and beloved hearts, love the collective, contribute to the society, appreciate life and explore life!
Thank you!

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.

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.

Ladies and Gentlmen :
My name is .It’s my great honous to speak here.I am the speaker of number 9. Today my topic is " Let’s take action to protect the environment . As we all know, The environment is getting worse and worse, In some places we can’t see fish swimming in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink. A number of people have been killed by air pollution and water pollution .Worst of all ,people aren’t aware of the danger of the pollution. So I think we should do something to protect the environment. .But what can we do? How to protect our environmemt?
In my opinion, we can go to school on foot or by bike. We can use shopping baskets instead of using the plastic bags when we go shopping. We can use both sides of the paper when we write . And remember don’t throw the rubbish everywhere. We can pick up the garbage when we see it. Remember to turn off the faucet. When we leave the room don’t forget to turn off the light.
If everyone takes action to protect our environment ,our shool and world will be much more beautiful in the future. DO You know? Today is world earth day.So Lets start to clean up now. Lets protect natures beauty.Lets make our future bright.Thank you for your attention.

Youth
Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!
青春
青春不是指岁月,而是指心态。粉嫩的脸,红润的唇,矫健的膝并不是青春。青春表现在意志的坚强与懦弱。想象的丰富与苍白、情感的充沛与贫乏等方面。青春是生命深处清泉的喷涌。青春是追求。只有当勇气盖过怯弱、进取压倒苟安之时,青春才存在。果如此,则60见之长者比20岁之少年更具青春活力。仅仅岁月的流逝并不能使他们衰老。而一旦抛弃理想和信念,则垂垂老也。
岁月只能使皮肤起皱。而一旦丧失生活的激情,则连灵魂枯老,使人生枯如死水,毫无活力。
60岁长者也好,16岁少年也罢,每个人的内心深处都渴望奇迹,都如孩子一般眨着期待的双眼,期待着下一次,期待着生活的情趣,你我灵魂深处都有一座无线电中转站------只有你我年轻,则总能听到希望的呼唤,总能发出喜悦的欢呼,总能传达勇气的讯号,总能表现出青春的活力………
一旦青春的天线倒下,你的灵魂即为玩世不恭之雪、悲观厌世之冰覆盖;即使你年方20.其实你已垂垂老也。而只要你青春的天线高高耸起,就可以随时接收到乐观的电波-----即使你年过八旬,行将就木,而你却仍然拥有青春,你仍然年轻。
谢谢!

Most Chinese students have difficulties in learning English. The difficulties vary so much from person to person that it is difficult to cite here in a few words. Some may have problems in reading. Others may have trouble in writing. I also had problems in English learning, but my difficulty seemed to lie in listening. For example, when tested for listening comprehension, I couldn't understand a single sentence, let alone a passage of medium level.
In order to overcome the difficulty in my English learning, I made great efforts to find the key to the problem. I consulted my teacher and found out that I merely didn't have enough time to practice listening. So I bought a tape recorder and listened to it at least two hours a day. In addition, I listened to "Special English" on VOA. I also went out of my way to speak to foreigners on the campus whenever we meet so that I could have the chance to listen to the native speakers. After half a year's hard work, I could get 70% of the questions correct in listening comprehension tests.
I own my success to my English teacher. It is him who tells me the correct way to learn English. It is him who always encourages me when I encounter difficulties and feel disappointed.

good moning, ladies and gentlemen. my topic today is educational background should never lose the ability .
talking about the educatinal background and ability, there is one people we can't help thinking up , that is tang jun, who has been regarded as the “king of chinese employees”, but he lost his dream because joye said his educational background is fake . at this moment ,sb said tang is nobody because he is without any educatinal background , however others still said tang is sb because he is within the ability. ladies and gentleman, what do you think? before answer it, i want to ask another questions" why are you sitting here today ? why am i standing here today? for what ? educatinal background ? ability? i think both of them, every day we work hard for pursuing higher educatinal background directly or indirectly : everyday we experience xhallenges or difficulties to improve our ability consciously or unconsciously. so ,today,i should say , we should own the educational background as well as the ability.
then now , i remenber a few days ago , one of my young sister , who is a freshman in jianghan university , called me and complained to me seriously, “ my headmaster told us to now work as hard as possible to prepare the postgraduate examination for a higher educational background tommorow. on the other side , he advised us to enhance our real ability in practice . what should i do ? how should i deal with it? i was surprised about her complainants. however, after i surfed the internet , i was more shocked. it was reported in an investigation , now there are nearly 40% of graduates who are pure bookworms, only with the educational background , 30% are practitioners , only with high ability but failed many courses until graduation.
what a extreme! educational background and ability , they are different but they are not conflicted, they are seperated, actually they are unified. in this age of modernization, in this age of competition, eucatinal background should never lose the ability, without educatinal background , tangjun is still a great man for his undoubtedly ability and contributions . we are not mr tang , he is unique in the world . his ability can't be copied, we are the common people , what we should do is to work down to earth .
then one day we can have the key of high educational background to open the door of future, meanwhile , strengthen the ability to stand there highly and respectivly forever!
thank you very much!
教育背景不应失去能力
早上好,女士们,先生们。我今天的话题是教育背景不应该失去能力。
谈论教育背景和能力,这是一个人我们不能帮助思考,唐军,曾被视为“中国员工”,王,但他失去了自己的梦想,因为Joye说他的教育背景是假的.。在这一刻,某人说,唐是没有人因为他是没有任何教育背景,但是还有人说是因为他在唐某人的能力。女士们,先生们,你觉得怎么样?在回答之前,我想问另一个问题:“你为什么今天坐在这里?为什么我今天站在这里?对于
什么?教育背景?能力?我认为他们两个,我们每天努力工作,追求更高的教育背景,直接或间接:我们每天经历xhallenges或困难,自觉或不自觉地提高我们的能力。所以,今天,我应该说,我们应该拥有自己的教育背景和能力。
那么现在,我记得前几天,一个我年轻的妹妹,谁是江汉大学大一新生,叫我和抱怨我认真,“我的校长告诉我们现在尽可能努力工作的高等教育背景明天准备研究生考试。另一方面,他建议我们在实践中提高我们的实际能力。我该怎么办?我该如何处理呢?我对她是投诉人惊讶。然而,当我上网,我更多的是震惊。这是一个调查报告,现在有近40%的毕业生是纯粹的书呆子,只与教育背景,30%
都是从业人员,只有具有很高的能力,但没有很多课程,直到毕业。
极端的!教育背景和能力,它们是不同的但他们并不是对立的,它们是分开的,实际上它们是统一的。在这个时代的现代化,这个时代的竞争,eucatinal背景永远不应该失去的能力,没有教育背景,唐骏仍然对他的能力和贡献的人伟大的无疑。我们不是唐先生,他在世界上是独一无二的。他的能力是不可复制的,我们是普通人,我们要做的就是把工作降到地球。
然后有一天,我们可以打开未来的门,高学历的关键,同时,加强站有高度和各自的能力

Hello everyone.Today I'm glad to be here to give a speech about my fresh experience in China Agriculture University.
First I must say the campus life is really different from what I have experienced in high school.For instance,I used to lean upon my dormitory teacher to wake me up on time.But now I have to set several alarm clocks to make myself could hear them in the morning.otherwise,I would miss my class.
And then even worse there would be nobody remind me except my teacher!So the differences are everywhere and I could easily find them.
The change of life is great and it's wonderful:I have more time of my own and the rights to decide how I live.
My campus activities are rich and colorful.Learning English has become a habit to me cause I plan to study abroad in next few years.Playing Guzheng is my favorite activity.I have kept on practising it since I was a little girl and I wish to win more competitions in my campus life.
Our university has the first level equipments and the most experienced teachers,also has the best students(laugh).I consider it to be a honor that I've got a chance to study here and I sincerely hope that we could live wonderful lives in our campus!

What makes ordinary life extraordinary, what makes ordinary people less common, and what makes us good habits? Only one answer is civilization!
Civilization is a beautiful word, and he has given us education "civilized travel", "civilization", set off firecrackers "civilization" and so on many things, but as the changes of The Times, some people call "civilized" gradually forgotten.
China, one of the four ancient civilizations in the history of mankind, is one of the most famous and civilized countries in the world. The world has inherited a great many traditions and virtues. From "kong rong to pear, sima guang" to "chairman MAO's honorist", from "head cantilever, conical stock" to "premier zhou to the rise of China"... As a third grader, I must pass on these spirits and strive to be the vanguard of The Times.
In school, I will listen carefully, study hard, do not do small movements in class, finish homework on time, help classmates sweep the floor, help teachers to draw water, send and receive homework to be good teacher's helper.
At home, I will help my mother sweep the floor, mop the floor, relieve the burden of my mother, and help my father buy things to become a civilized primary school student.

Good morning everyone!
Most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal. What is the secret to popularity? In fact, it is very simple. The first step is to improve our appearance. We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well. When we are healthy and well-groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better. In addition, we should smile and appear friendly. After all, our facial expression is an important part of our appearance. If we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.
Another important step is developing more consideration for others. We should always put others first and place their interests before our own. It's also important to be good listeners; in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us. However, no matter what we do, we must not gossip. Above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies. Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect. If we can do all of the above, I am sure popularity will come our way.

I want to start by doing an experiment. I'mgoing to play three videos of a rainy day. But I've replaced the audio of oneof the videos, and instead of the sound of rain, I've added the sound of baconfrying. So I want you think carefully which one the clip with the bacon is.
我想用一个实验来开始我的演讲。我将给你们播放三段雨天的视频。不过我把其中一个视频里的 音频换成了别的,它不再是下雨的声音,变成了煎培根的声音。我想让你们认真听,找出哪个视频里是煎培根声。
Raise your hand if you've ever been asked the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
如果你们曾被问过这个问题,请举手“你长大之后想干什么?”
Now if you had to guess, how old would you say you were when you were first asked this question? You can just hold up fingers. Three. Five. Three. Five. Five. OK. Now, raise your hand if the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" has ever caused you any anxiety.
现在大家回想一下,你们第一次被问这个问题是多大?你们可以举手指头来示意一下。三岁,五岁,三岁,五岁,五岁,好的。接下来,如果刚刚说的这个问题,“你长大之后想干什么?”曾经让你感到焦虑,请举手。
Any anxiety at all.
哪怕一点点焦虑。
I'm someone who's never been able to answer the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
我永远无法回答这个问题,“你长大之后想干什么?”
See, the problem wasn't that I didn't have any interests -- it's that I had too many. In high school, I liked English and math and art and I built websites and I played guitar in a punk band called Frustrated Telephone Operator. Maybe you've heard of us.
并不是说我没有兴趣爱好,而是我的兴趣爱好太多。高中的时候,我喜欢英语、数学和艺术,建过网站在一个叫“失意电话话务员”的朋克乐队当吉他手。也许你们还听说过我们乐队呢。
This continued after high school, and at a certain point, I began to notice this pattern in myself where I would become interested in an area and I would dive in, become all-consumed, and I'd get to be pretty good at whatever it was, and then I would hit this point where I'd start to get bored. And usually I would try and persist anyway, because I had already devoted so much time and energy and sometimes money into this field. But eventually this sense of boredom, this feeling of, like, yeah, I got this, this isn't challenging anymore -- it would get to be too much. And I would have to let it go.
高中毕业后我也依旧兴趣广泛,某一天,我发现自己有一个行为模式,我会对某一个领域感兴趣,然后一头扎进去,认真钻研,变得越来越擅长,但到了某一个阶段,我就会开始觉得无聊。通常我会继续坚持下去,因为我已经投入了很多时间和精力,有时候还有金钱。但是最终这种无聊的感觉,就像在说,哦,这事我已经会了,已经没有任何挑战了,再继续也不会有多大成就了。我必须要放手。
But then I would become interested in something else, something totally unrelated, and I would dive into that, and become all-consumed, and I'd be like, "Yes! I found my thing," and then I would hit this point again where I'd start to get bored. And eventually, I would let it go. But then I would discover something new and totally different, and I would dive into that.
但之后我可能又会对另一些事感兴趣,跟之前完全不同的领域,我又会一头扎进去,认真钻研,然后说,“太棒了!这就是我的菜!”之后我又会达到那个阶段,开始觉得无聊。最后,我又会放弃。 之后我又会发现新的兴趣,不同的领域 然后一头扎进去。
This pattern caused me a lot of anxiety, for two reasons. The first was that I wasn't sure how I was going to turn any of this into a career. I thought that I would eventually have to pick one thing, deny all of my other passions, and just resign myself to being bored. The other reason it caused me so much anxiety was a little bit more personal. I worried that there was something wrong with this, and something wrong with me for being unable to stick with anything. I worried that I was afraid of commitment, or that I was scattered, or that I was self-sabotaging, afraid of my own success.
这种模式让我非常焦虑,原因有两点。 一是我不确定 如何才能将这些兴趣变成我的职业。 我觉得自己最终会从 (这些兴趣)里面挑一个,而对其他爱好忍痛割爱, 做好将来一定会无聊的心理准备。 让我非常焦虑的第二个原因, 跟我自身有关。 我担心自己的这种行为模式是错的, 自己这么朝三暮四,是不是错了。我是不是害怕做出承诺, 或者自由散漫,破罐子破摔, 惧怕成功。
If you can relate to my story and to these feelings, I'd like you to ask yourself a question that I wish I had asked myself back then. Ask yourself where you learned to assign the meaning of wrong or abnormal to doing many things. I'll tell you where you learned it: you learned it from the culture.
如果你能理解我的故事和我的感受,请你们问自己一个问题,这个问题我早就该问自己的。就是,你是从哪里学到该如何判断我们的所作所为是错误的或者不正常的。 我来告诉你答案: 是从我们的文化中学到的。
We are first asked the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" when we're about five years old. And the truth is that no one really cares what you say when you're that age.
我们第一次被问到“你长大之后想干什么?”是在差不多五岁的时候。其实像你那么大的时候没有人会真的关心你说了什么。
It's considered an innocuous question, posed to little kids to elicit cute replies, like, "I want to be an astronaut," or "I want to be a ballerina," or "I want to be a pirate." Insert Halloween costume here.
这仅仅是一个无伤大雅的问题,为的是让小朋友做出可爱的回应,比如,“我想当宇航员”,或者“我想当芭蕾舞演员”,或者“我想当海盗”。此处应加万圣节服装的特效。
But this question gets asked of us again and again as we get older in various forms -- for instance, high school students might get asked what major they're going to pick in college. And at some point, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" goes from being the cute exercise it once was to the thing that keeps us up at night. Why?
然而这个问题,在我们成长的过程中会不断被问到形式多种多样,比如,高中生会被问到,你们在大学准备选什么专业。突然有一天, “你长大之后想干什么?” 从原本一种秀可爱的方式 变成了让我们寝食难安的难题。为什么会这样?
See, while this question inspires kids to dream about what they could be, it does not inspire them to dream about all that they could be. In fact, it does just the opposite, because when someone asks you what you want to be, you can't reply with 20 different things, though well-meaning adults will likely chuckle and be like, "Oh, how cute, but you can't be a violin maker and a psychologist. You have to choose."
尽管这个问题鼓励小朋友想象自己将来要做什么,但它并未给小朋友充分想象的自由。恰恰相反,它限制了小朋友想象的自由,因为有人问你长大后想做什么,你不可能回答20种不同的职业,尽管有些善良的大人会笑呵呵地说,“哦,你太可爱了,但是你不能同时成为小提琴制作家和心理学家啊。你必须选一个。”
This is Dr. Bob Childs -- and he's a luthier and psychotherapist. And this is Amy Ng, a magazine editor turned illustrator, entrepreneur, teacher and creative director. But most kids don't hear about people like this. All they hear is that they're going to have to choose. But it's more than that. The notion of the narrowly focused life is highly romanticized in our culture. It's this idea of destiny or the one true calling, the idea that we each have one great thing we are meant to do during our time on this earth, and you need to figure out what that thing isand devote your life to it.
这位是鲍勃·柴尔兹博士,他是一名弦乐器工匠和心理医生。这位是艾米·恩,之前是杂志编辑,后来成为插画作家,企业家教师和创意总监。但大部分孩子都没听说过他们。他们听到的只是要他们进行选择和取舍。 事情远不止这么简单。 一生都心无旁骛的这一观念, 在我们的文化中被过分浪漫化了。 这种命运论或者说 “命中注定的职业”的概念, 意思是我们每个人都有一份 命中注定的伟大事业,我们需要找到它, 并为之奋斗一生。
But what if you're someone who isn't wired this way? What if there are a lot of different subjects that you're curious about, and many different things you want to do? Well, there is no room for someone like you in this framework. And so you might feel alone. You might feel like you don't have a purpose. And you might feel like there's something wrong with you. There's nothing wrong with you. What you are is a multipotentialite.
但如果你不是这样的人呢?如果你对很多事都有好奇心,想去尝试各种各样的职业呢?那么在现有体系中,你很难有容身之处。你也许会感到孤独。你也许会觉得自己没有目标。你也许会觉得自己是不是有问题。你没有问题。你是一名“多重潜力者”。
A multipotentialite is someone with many interests and creative pursuits. It's a mouthful to say. It might help if you break it up into three parts: multi, potential, and ite. You can also use one of the other terms that connote the same idea, such as polymath, the Renaissance person. Actually, during the Renaissance period, it was considered the ideal to be well-versed in multiple disciplines. Barbara Sher refers to us as "scanners." Use whichever term you like, or invent your own. I have to say I find it sort of fitting that as a community, we cannot agree on a single identity.
“多重潜力者”拥有多种兴趣并且追求创新。听起来很费解吧。如果把它拆成三部分可能比较好理解:多重的,有潜力的,人。你也可以用其他词来表述类似的意思,比如“博学者”,或者“文艺复兴者”。实际上,在文艺复兴时代,精通多个学科是非常被推崇的。芭芭拉·谢尔称我们为“扫描仪”。你可以选择一个自己喜欢的词,或者创造一个新的。我感觉自己找到了组织,因为我们无法接受只有一种身份。
It's easy to see your multipotentiality as a limitation or an affliction that you need to overcome. But what I've learned through speaking with people and writing about these ideas on my website, is that there are some tremendous strengths to being this way. Here are three multipotentialite super powers.
人们很容易把多重潜力视为一种局限或者痛苦,需要克服。但我通过与人们交流,以及把这些观点发到我的网站上,我发现多重潜力者有很多优点。多重潜力者拥有三种“超能力”。
One: idea synthesis. That is, combining two or more fields and creating something new at the intersection.Sha Hwang and Rachel Binx drew from their shared interests in cartography, data visualization, travel, mathematics and design, when they founded Meshu. Meshu is a company that creates custom geographically-inspired jewelry. Sha and Rachel came up with this unique idea not despite, but because of their eclectic mix of skills and experiences. Innovation happens at the intersections. That's where the new ideas come from. And multipotentialites, with all of their backgrounds, are able to access a lot of these points of intersection.
第一是产生创意。就是说,结合两个或两个以上领域从结合处寻求创新。黄沙和瑞秋·宾克斯找到了共同的兴趣爱好,像制图,数据可视化,旅行,数学和设计,之后他们创办了Meshu。 Meshu是一家定制珠宝公司,专门制作具有地域特色的珠宝。黄沙和瑞秋之所以能产生这个独特的创意,正是因为他俩博学多才,经历丰富。创新来源于交叉处。新创意(大都)来源于此。而多重潜力者,拥有丰富的(知识)背景,能够在各领域交叉处找到突破点。
The second multipotentialite superpower is rapid learning. When multipotentialites become interested in something, we go hard. We observe everything we can get our hands on. We're also used to being beginners, because we've been beginners so many times in the past, and this means that we're less afraid of trying new things and stepping out of our comfort zones. What's more, many skills are transferable across disciplines, and we bring everything we've learned to every new area we pursue, so we're rarely starting from scratch.
多重潜力者的第二种超能力是快速学习。当多重潜力者对某件事产生兴趣时, 我们会全身心投入。 我们仔细观察,勤于实践。 我们已经习惯于当初学者,因为我们过去曾当过无数次初学者, 我们不怕尝试新事物, 勇于走出舒适区。 除此以外,很多能力在各个学科都是通用的, 我们将之前所学用于新领域, 而不用从零开始。
Nora Dunn is a full-time traveler and freelance writer. As a child concert pianist, she honed an incredible ability to develop muscle memory. Now, she's the fastest typist she knows.
诺拉·邓恩是一位全职旅行家和自由作家。作为一名儿童钢琴演奏家,她磨练出了非凡的能力来发展肌肉记忆。因此,她是她所有认识的人中打字最快的。
Before becoming a writer, Nora was a financial planner. She had to learn the finer mechanics of sales when she was starting her practice, and this skill now helps her write compelling pitches to editors. It is rarely a waste of time to pursue something you're drawn to, even if you end up quitting. You might apply that knowledge in a different field entirely, in a way that you couldn't have anticipated.
在当作家之前,诺拉是一名理财师。在初入这行的时候,她不得不学习一些高明的销售技巧,如今这项技能被她用来给编辑写精彩的推荐语。追求你感兴趣的东西并不是浪费时间,即使最后你并没有坚持到底。也许将来你会把这些知识用在一个完全不同的领域,用一种你完全预料不到的方式。
The third multipotentialite superpower is adaptability; that is, the ability to morph into whatever you need to be in a given situation. Abe Cajudo is sometimes a video director, sometimes a web designer, sometimes a Kickstarter consultant, sometimes a teacher, and sometimes, apparently, James Bond.
第三种“超能力”是适应性。 也就是说,如果有需要, 你能变成任何角色, 以适应不同的情况。 艾比·卡胡多有时候是视频导演, 有时候是网站设计师, 有时候是众筹顾问, 有时候是老师, 有时候,很明显,是詹姆斯·邦德。
He's valuable because he does good work. He's even more valuable because he can take on various roles,depending on his clients' needs. Fast Company magazine identified adaptability as the single most important skill to develop in order to thrive in the 21st century. The economic world is changing so quickly and unpredictably that it is the individuals and organizations that can pivot in order to meet the needs of the market that are really going to thrive.
他拥有出色的工作能力。更重要的是他可以随时切换自己的角色,来满足客户的需要。《快公司》杂志认为,要想在21世纪取得成功,适应性是最重要的一项技能。经济界的变化如此迅速且无法预测,那些能够根据市场需要进行调整的个人和公司才有可能取得成功。
Idea synthesis, rapid learning and adaptability: three skills that multipotentialites are very adept at, and three skills that they might lose if pressured to narrow their focus. As a society, we have a vested interest in encouraging multipotentialites to be themselves. We have a lot of complex, multidimensional problems in the world right now, and we need creative, out-of-the-box thinkers to tackle them.
产生创意,快速学习和适应性是多重潜力者非常擅长的三种能力,如果强迫他们缩小自己的关注范围,这三种能力也许就会丧失。作为一个社会,鼓励多重潜力者保持本色对我们有利。我们如今面临许多复杂问题,涉及许多方面, 我们需要有创意的、能破除思维定式的 思想者来解决这些问题。
Now, let's say that you are, in your heart, a specialist. You came out of the womb knowing you wanted to be a pediatric neurosurgeon. Don't worry -- there's nothing wrong with you, either.
我们假设,内心深处,你是一名专家。你从打娘胎里出来就知道你想当一名儿童神经外科医生。别担心,即使这样你也挺正常的。
In fact, some of the best teams are comprised of a specialist and multipotentialite paired together. The specialist can dive in deep and implement ideas, while the multipotentialite brings a breadth of knowledge to the project. It's a beautiful partnership. But we should all be designing lives and careers that are aligned with how we're wired. And sadly, multipotentialites are largely being encouraged simply to be more like their specialist peers.
事实上,一些顶尖团队就是由专家和多重潜力者搭配组成。专家可以深入研究,实践想法,而多重潜力者可以为项目带来更广泛的知识支持。这是一种美妙的合作。但是我们都应该根据自己的天赋来规划与之相适应的人生和职业。不幸的是,多重潜力者往往被要求成为(刚刚提到的)团队中的那个专家。
So with that said, if there is one thing you take away from this talk, I hope that it is this: embrace your inner wiring, whatever that may be. If you're a specialist at heart, then by all means, specialize. That is where you'll do your best work. But to the multipotentialites in the room, including those of you who may have just realized in the last 12 minutes that you are one --
所以,如果你从今天的演讲中学到了一件事的话,我希望会是: 接受你内心的真实想法。 如果你是专家型的人, 那就用尽一切办法,成为专家。你会干得非常不错。 但对于在座的多重潜力者们, 包括那些在过去的12分钟里 刚刚意识到自己是多重潜力者的人。
To you I say: embrace your many passions. Follow your curiosity down those rabbit holes. Explore your intersections. Embracing our inner wiring leads to a happier, more authentic life. And perhaps more importantly -- multipotentialites, the world needs us.Thank you.
我要对你们说:接受你的众多爱好。保持你的好奇心。探索(不同领域的)交叉地带。让真实的自我引领我们去过更快乐、更真实的人生。也许更重要的是,(我们是)多重潜力者,这个世界需要我们。谢谢大家。

Museums should be made my eyes, museums of course should be made free.
We know that, as a part of culture, museums restore many culture relics. These are typical symbols for a certain times. As a citizen of our country, it is necessary and natural to learn our past history. Recent years, more and more museums are open free to the public. I couldn't agree more with it. Free museum will greatly motivate all kinds of people to approach. What's more, in this fast developing age, museums have many new and advanced invents inside. It will be a wonderful place for people who want to learn more. Parents can often take their children to museums to learn about history and some technical knowledge. In a word, I think government should try to make more museums free for citizens.

thanksgiving day is the most truly american of the national holidays in the united states and is most closely connected with the earliest history of the country.
in 1620, the settlers, or pilgrims, they sailed to america on the may flower, seeking a place where they could have freedom of worship. after a tempestuous two-month voyage they landed at in icy november, what is now plymouth, massachusetts.
during their first winter, over half of the settlers died of[1] starvation or epidemics. those who survived began sowing in the first spring.
all summer long they waited for the harvests with great anxiety, knowing that their lives and the future existence of the colony depended on the coming harvest. finally the fields produced a yield rich beyond expectations. and therefore it was decided that a day of thanksgiving to the lord be fixed[2]. years later, president of the united states proclaimed the fourth thursday of november as thanksgiving day every year. the celebration of thanksgiving day has been observed on that date until today.
the pattern of the thanksgiving celebration has never changed through the years. the big family dinner is planned months ahead. on the dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes. there will be plum pudding, mince pie, other varieties of food and cranberry juice and squash. the best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie. they have been the most traditional and favorite food on thanksgiving day throughout the years.
everyone agrees the dinner must be built around roast turkey stuffed with a bread dressing[3] to absorb the tasty juices as it roasts. but as cooking varies with families and with the regions where one lives, it is not easy to get a consensus on[4] the precise kind of stuffing for the royal bird.
thanksgiving today is, in every sense, a national annual holiday on which americans of all faiths and backgrounds join in to express their thanks for the year' s bounty and reverently ask for continued[5] blessings.
