励志英语优秀演讲稿1
When I was in my 20s, I saw my very first psychotherapy client。 I was a Ph。D。 student in clinical psychology at Berkeley。 She was a 26—year—old woman named Alex。 Now Alex walked into her first session wearing jeans and a big slouchy top, and she dropped onto the couch in my office and kicked off her flats and told me she was there to talk about guy problems。 Now when I heard this, I was so relieved。 My classmate got an arsonist for her first client。 (Laughter) And I got a twentysomething who wanted to talk about boys。 This I thought I could handle。
But I didn't handle it。 With the funny stories that Alex would bring to session, it was easy for me just to nod my head while we kicked the can down the road。 "Thirty's the new 20," Alex would say, and as far as I could tell, she was right。 Work happened later, marriage happened later, kids happened later, even death happened later。 Twentysomethings like Alex and I had nothing but time。
But before long, my supervisor pushed me to push Alex about her love life。 I pushed back。
I said, "Sure, she's dating down, she's sleeping with a knucklehead, but it's not like she's going to marry the guy。"
And then my supervisor said, "Not yet, but she might marry the next one。 Besides, the best time to work on Alex's marriage is before she has one。"
That's what psychologists call an "Aha!" moment。 That was the moment I realized, 30 is not the new 20。 Yes, people settle down later than they used to, but that didn't make Alex's 20s a developmental downtime。 That made Alex's 20s a developmental sweet spot, and we were sitting there blowing it。 That was when I realized that this sort of benign neglect was a real problem, and it had real consequences, not just for Alex and her love life but for the careers and the families and the futures of twentysomethings everywhere。
There are 50 million twentysomethings in the United States right now。 We're talking about 15 percent of the population, or 100 percent if you consider that no one's getting through adulthood without going through their 20s first。
Raise your hand if you're in your 20s。 I really want to see some twentysomethings here。 Oh, yay! Y'all's awesome。 If you work with twentysomethings, you love a twentysomething, you're losing sleep over twentysomethings, I want to see — Okay。 Awesome, twentysomethings really matter。
So I specialize in twentysomethings because I believe that every single one of those 50 million twentysomethings deserves to know what psychologists, sociologists, neurologists and fertility specialists already know: that claiming your 20s is one of the simplest, yet most transformative, things you can do for work, for love, for your happiness, maybe even for the world。
This is not my opinion。 These are the facts。 We know that 80 percent of life's most defining moments take place by age 35。 That means that eight out of 10 of the decisions and experiences and "Aha!" moments that make your life what it is will have happened by your mid—30s。 People who are over 40, don't panic。 This crowd is going to be fine, I think。 We know that the first 10 years of a career has an exponential impact on how much money you're going to earn。 We know that more than half of Americans are married or are living with or dating their future partner by 30。 We know that the brain caps off its second and last growth spurt in your 20s as it rewires itself for adulthood, which means that whatever it is you want to change about yourself, now is the time to change it。 We know that personality changes more during your 20s than at any other time in life, and we know that female fertility peaks at age 28, and things get tricky after age 35。 So your 20s are the time to educate yourself about your body and your options。
So when we think about child development, we all know that the first five years are a critical period for language and attachment in the brain。 It's a time when your ordinary, day—to—day life has an inordinate impact on who you will become。 But what we hear less about is that there's such a thing as adult development, and our 20s are that critical period of adult development。
But this isn't what twentysomethings are hearing。 Newspapers talk about the changing timetable of adulthood。 Researchers call the 20s an extended adolescence。 Journalists coin silly nicknames for twentysomethings like "twixters" and "kidults。" It's true。 As a culture, we have trivialized what is actually the defining decade of adulthood。
Leonard Bernstein said that to achieve great things, you need a plan and not quite enough time。 Isn't that true? So what do you think happens when you pat a twentysomething on the head and you say, "You have 10 extra years to start your life"? Nothing happens。 You have robbed that person of his urgency and ambition, and absolutely nothing happens。
And then every day, smart, interesting twentysomethings like you or like your sons and daughters come into my office and say things like this: "I know my boyfriend's no good for me, but this relationship doesn't count。 I'm just killing time。" Or they say, "Everybody says as long as I get started on a career by the time I'm 30, I'll be fine。"
But then it starts to sound like this: "My 20s are almost over, and I have nothing to show for myself。 I had a better résumé the day after I graduated from college。"
And then it starts to sound like this: "Dating in my 20s was like musical chairs。 Everybody was running around and having fun, but then sometime around 30 it was like the music turned off and everybody started sitting down。 I didn't want to be the only one left standing up, so sometimes I think I married my husband because he was the closest chair to me at 30。"
Where are the twentysomethings here? Do not do that。
Okay, now that sounds a little flip, but make no mistake, the stakes are very high。 When a lot has been pushed to your 30s, there is enormous thirtysomething pressure to jump—start a career, pick a city, partner up, and have two or three kids in a much shorter period of time。 Many of these things are incompatible, and as research is just starting to show, simply harder and more stressful to do all at once in our 30s。
The post—millennial midlife crisis isn't buying a red sports car。 It's realizing you can't have that career you now want。 It's realizing you can't have that child you now want, or you can't give your child a sibling。 Too many thirtysomethings and fortysomethings look at themselves, and at me, sitting across the room, and say about their 20s, "What was I doing? What was I thinking?"
I want to change what twentysomethings are doing and thinking。
Here's a story about how that can go。 It's a story about a woman named Emma。 At 25, Emma came to my office because she was, in her words, having an identity crisis。 She said she thought she might like to work in art or entertainment, but she hadn't decided yet, so she'd spent the last few years waiting tables instead。 Because it was cheaper, she lived with a boyfriend who displayed his temper more than his ambition。 And as hard as her 20s were, her early life had been even harder。 She often cried in our sessions, but then would collect herself by saying, "You can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends。"
Well one day, Emma comes in and she hangs her head in her lap, and she sobbed for most of the hour。 She'd just bought a new address book, and she'd spent the morning filling in her many contacts, but then she'd been left staring at that empty blank that comes after the words "In case of emergency, please call 。。。 。" She was nearly hysterical when she looked at me and said, "Who's going to be there for me if I get in a car wreck? Who's going to take care of me if I have cancer?"
Now in that moment, it took everything I had not to say, "I will。" But what Emma needed wasn't some therapist who really, really cared。 Emma needed a better life, and I knew this was her chance。 I had learned too much since I first worked with Alex to just sit there while Emma's defining decade went parading by。
So over the next weeks and months, I told Emma three things that every twentysomething, male or female, deserves to hear。
First, I told Emma to forget about having an identity crisis and get some identity capital。 By get identity capital, I mean do something that adds value to who you are。 Do something that's an investment in who you might want to be next。 I didn't know the future of Emma's career, and no one knows the future of work, but I do know this: Identity capital begets identity capital。 So now is the time for that cross—country job, that internship, that startup you want to try。 I'm not discounting twentysomething exploration here, but I am discounting exploration that's not supposed to count, which, by the way, is not exploration。 That's procrastination。 I told Emma to explore work and make it count。
Second, I told Emma that the urban tribe is overrated。 Best friends are great for giving rides to the airport, but twentysomethings who huddle together with like—minded peers limit who they know, what they know, how they think, how they speak, and where they work。 That new piece of capital, that new person to date almost always comes from outside the inner circle。 New things come from what are called our weak ties, our friends of friends of friends。 So yes, half of twentysomethings are un— or under—employed。 But half aren't, and weak ties are how you get yourself into that group。 Half of new jobs are never posted, so reaching out to your neighbor's boss is how you get that un—posted job。 It's not cheating。 It's the science of how information spreads。
Last but not least, Emma believed that you can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends。 Now this was true for her growing up, but as a twentysomething, soon Emma would pick her family when she partnered with someone and created a family of her own。 I told Emma the time to start picking your family is now。 Now you may be thinking that 30 is actually a better time to settle down than 20, or even 25, and I agree with you。 But grabbing whoever you're living with or sleeping with when everyone on Facebook starts walking down the aisle is not progress。 The best time to work on your marriage is before you have one, and that means being as intentional with love as you are with work。 Picking your family is about consciously choosing who and what you want rather than just making it work or killing time with whoever happens to be choosing you。
So what happened to Emma? Well, we went through that address book, and she found an old roommate's cousin who worked at an art museum in another state。 That weak tie helped her get a job there。 That job offer gave her the reason to leave that live—in boyfriend。 Now, five years later, she's a special events planner for museums。 She's married to a man she mindfully chose。 She loves her new career, she loves her new family, and she sent me a card that said, "Now the emergency contact blanks don't seem big enough。"
Now Emma's story made that sound easy, but that's what I love about working with twentysomethings。 They are so easy to help。 Twentysomethings are like airplanes just leaving LAX, bound for somewhere west。 Right after takeoff, a slight change in course is the difference between landing in Alaska or Fiji。 Likewise, at 21 or 25 or even 29, one good conversation, one good break, one good TED Talk, can have an enormous effect across years and even generations to come。
So here's an idea worth spreading to every twentysomething you know。 It's as simple as what I learned to say to Alex。 It's what I now have the privilege of saying to twentysomethings like Emma every single day: Thirty is not the new 20, so claim your adulthood, get some identity capital, use your weak ties, pick your family。 Don't be defined by what you didn't know or didn't do。 You're deciding your life right now。 Thank you。

向着成功努力的过程,乍一看,就像一条黑漆的隧道,望不到头,比如高三毕业班的学生,每天有做不完的作业,忙不完的事,睡不够的觉,许多人每天都要头悬梁锥刺骨,地挑灯夜战,每天在两点一线之间劳碌……一天天的生活就像复印机里印出来的,一切都在重复。

是的,沉重的负担压得我们几乎崩溃了,太高的期望将我们紧紧地钉在地上,但也许最沉重的负担同时也是一种生活充实的象征。

我们好比是在乘一辆车前往目的地,沿途的风光很美,很诱人,但是你最好不要为了他们牵扯太多的精力, 而要使目光一直朝着终点的方向看,如果忍不住跳下车去欣赏暂时的美景,这辆车就开走了,也许你会看到另一辆车,也许最后你同样到达目的地,但那也不是你人生准点的时刻了。

求学的阶段,就是为实现人生目标迈出重要一步的时候,如果错过这个机会,你将追悔莫及,所以狠狠心,女孩子们暂且丢下那些漂亮的衣服和浪费时间的打扮,男孩子们抛开那诱人的漫画书和电脑游戏,放一放那一段遥不可及的青苹果之恋吧!

We Are The World ,We Are The Future 世界是我们的,未来是我们的
Someone said we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite. I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. How to spend the youth? It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask what do you understand by the word youth? Youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
A poet said To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I’d like to share it with all of you. Let’s show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let’s make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out We are the world, we are the future.
一些人说我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。我不知道谁写了这些话,但是我一直很喜欢它,因为它提醒了我,我们能够创造我们想要的未来。
我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子,我们将会丰收。如果我们的'种子很差,有很多草籽,收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种,什么收获也没有。
我们是年轻的。怎样度过青春?这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它,我首先要问从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么? 青春不是人生的一个时期,而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,.青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
一位诗人说从一粒沙看世界,从一朵花看天堂,把无限放在你的手掌,永恒在一刹那里收藏.几天前,我有了一个听讲座的机会,从中我学到了很多东西。现在,我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手,我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱,事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短,那你们的呢?我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的,让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿?我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿?告诉我!是的,它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。
我们所有人都希望未来能比过去更美好,但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣,微笑吧,为你的曾经拥有。从过去来看,生活是艰苦的,但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择感觉,但是我们能选择和它相关的东西。失败并不意味着你不拥有成功,它只意味着你应该用另一种方式去做这件事。失败并不意味着你应该放弃,只意味着你应该更加努力。
正如我在前面所说的我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。过去的已经过去,无论我们无力改变,但是未来却在我们前方。相信我们给了世界什么,世界也将给我们.并且从今天起,让我们一起做我们自己的主人,一起大声说出世界是我们的,未来是我们的。

Good afternoon, everyone!
The topic of my speech today is “Being a Good Listener”.
Good listening can always show respect, promote understanding, and improve interpersonal relationship.
Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children, so they will understand them better, and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their students, then they can meet their needs better, and place themselves in a good relationship with their students; students should listen more to their classmates, thus they will help and learn from each other, and a friendship is likely to be formed.
What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others. Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; be open-minded to different opinions even though you don’t like them. In a word, good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.
Thank you for your listening!
大家下午好!
今天,我演讲的题目是“做一个好的倾听者”。
好的倾听可以表示尊重,增进理解,和改善人际关系。
许多人认为父母应该多听他们的孩子,所以他们会对它们有更好的理解,并且发现它容易缩小代沟,教师应该多听他们的学生,然后他们可以满足他们的需求,并将自己与他们的学生在一个良好的关系,学生应该多听他们的同学,因此他们会帮助和互相学习,可能会形成和友谊。
我想强调的是我们每个人都应该更多的倾听他人。展示你的.尊重和从未停止其他人直到他们完成他们的谈话,告诉你感兴趣的一个支持性的沉默或一个会心的微笑,是开放的不同意见,即使你不喜欢他们。总之,良好的倾听可以使我们更接近彼此。
谢谢你的倾听!

It is quite usual that one meets failures, for one's life can never be plain sailing. However, different people hold different attitudes towards failure. Some people think it a heavy blow to fail in achieving something and they can not endure failure.
When they meet failure, they will be seriously dejected and can never pluck up their courage to try again.
However, others think it natural to meet failures in one's career. Therefore, they are psychologically prepared. When they meet failures, they will not be frustrated. Instead, they will continue to meet new challenges. As to me, I'm in favor of the latter view. Failure is really a terrible thing but it is also the mother of success. If one draws lessons from failures, in most cases he will get success in the future. Furthermore, one's life can never be smooth sailing; it must be full of difficulies and setbacks. If one is daunted by difficulies and frustrations, he will always be a failure. However, if one holds a positive attitude toward failure, he will overcome difficulties and frustrations to win victory.

It is such an honor and pleasure for me to be back at Yale, especially onthe occasion of the 300th anniversary. I have had so many memories of my timehere, and as Nick was speaking I thought about how I ended up at Yale LawSchool. And it tells a little bit about how much progress we’ve made.
What I think most about when I think of Yale is not just the politicallycharged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that I was at Yale that I began work that has been at the core of what I have caredabout ever since. I began working with New Haven legal services representingchildren. And I studied child development, abuse and neglect at the Yale NewHaven Hospital and the Child Study Center. I was lucky enough to receive a civilrights internship with Marian Wright Edelman at the Children’s Defense Fund,where I went to work after I graduated. Those experiences fueled in me a passionto work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable.
When I was thinking about running for the United States Senate-which wassuch an enormous decision to make, one I never could have dreamed that I wouldhave been making when I was here on campus-I visited a school in New York Cityand I met a young woman, who was a star athlete.
I was there because of Billy Jean King promoting an HBO special about womenin sports called “Dare to compete.” It was about Title IX and how we finally,thanks to government action, provided opportunities to girls and women insports.
So, dare to compete, yes, but maybe even more difficult, dare to care. Dareto care about people who need our help to succeed and fulfill their own e are so many out there and sometimes all it takes is the simplest ofgestures or helping hands and many of you understand that already. I know thatthe numbers of graduates in the last 20 years have worked in communityorganizations, have tutored, have committed themselves to religiousactivities.
Community service and religious involvement being up. But if you look atthe area of voting among 18 to 29 year olds, the numbers tell a far moretroubling tale. Many of you I know believe that service and communityvolunteerism is a better way of solving the issues facing our country thanpolitical engagement, because you believe-choose one of the following multiplesor choose them all-government either can’t understand or won’t make the rightchoices because of political pressures, inefficiency, incompetence or big moneyinfluence.
Well, I admit there is enough truth in that critique to justify feelingdisconnected and alienated. But at bottom, that’s a personal cop-out and anational peril. Political conditions maximize the conditions for individualopportunity and responsibility as well as community. Americorps and the PeaceCorps exist because of political decisions. Our air, water, land and food willbe clean and safe because of political choices. Our ability to cure disease orlog onto the Internet have been advanced because of politically determinedinvestments. Ethnic cleansing in Kosovo ended because of political parents and grandparents traveled here by means of government built andsubsidized transportation systems. Many used GI Bills or government loans, as Idid, to attend college.
Now, I could, as you might guess, go on and on, but the point is to remindus all that government is us and each generation has to stake its claim. And, asstakeholders, you will have to decide whether or not to make the choice toparticipate. It is hard and it is, bringing change in a democracy, particularlynow. There’s so much about our modern times that conspire to lower our sights,to weaken our vision-as individuals and communities and even nations.
It is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about; rather it’s asilent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see everyday, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism.
And I leave these graduates with the same message I hope to leave with mygraduate. Dare to compete. Dare to care. Dare to dream. Dare to love. Practicethe art of making possible. And no matter what happens, even if you hear shoutsbehind, keep going.
Thank you and God bless you all.

Dear every leader, teacher:
Good morning!
The history of the word "youth" in han dynasty, for spring, namely the beginning of the year. Now, as a symbol of youth full of vigor and vitality, infinite passion and dreams, and unremitting struggle and enterprising, at the same time, the youth means young, fresh and unfocused, we have set up the correct world outlook, the outlook on life and values, can be in the long life journey in the right direction. One's life in a hurry decades, time flies, the youth gradually old, "mo, white young head, in vain," the old adage always linger in my heart, and time and tide wait for no man, just as a teenager, classmate should take, will be enthusiastic to your career, with selfless dedication "magic" to paint the most beautiful youth choi jin, let youth in dedication to burn out the most luminous petard.
Doctors and teachers, the two holy and glorious career, childhood and I cannot choose the two ideal, now I want to thank fate, let I became a teacher after graduate from medical school, be able to have it both ways. When I first stood in front of the three feet platform, in the face of pairs of curious eyes, sacred sense of mission, I know "self-development, putting to reassure also" the deep meaning of han yu's "mission" in the first, is to tell us as a good teacher, first of all should pay attention to students' personality cultivation, education first and then teach, and not scripted written knowledge cramming plug it to the student. Especially as a teacher in teaching of medical courses, I keep the "department of health, life trust with" medical student oath engraved in mind, this simple eight characters, as a medical treatment of worker's responsibility to express incisively and vividly, and my job, is to develop the medical ethics and medical skill, has the sense of responsibility "three talents".
Youth is charming, many people in the youth brilliance has composed brilliant life, 21, xin qiji in song dynasty "warriors, swallowing Wan Liru tiger" momentum dispell resistant gold; Premier zhou was written at the age of 19 gallery "river song" turn around the east ", to express the youth to liberation of the motherland determination; Comrade lei feng, 19, joined the army, for the revolution of the screw, selfless dedication, serve the people heart and soul, only 22 years, and he gave their young life. They are standing tide hero, is never falling stars, but my role model in my heart. If we have some far away their era, if they are specific historical period of the "chaotic hero", do not represent the spirit of the new age young people thought, the new situation, the era of heroes, the dalian naval academy politics professor Fang Yonggang comrade, his advanced deeds, enough to touch each and every one of us. Fang Yonggang engaged in political theory teaching and research work for a long time, for more than 20 years, he has to study the innovation theory of the communist party as a holy mission of determination, dedication, passion to work with, even terminally ill and shoulder the responsibility, don't give up his manner and character shows the power of a communist political beliefs and excellent teacher of noble realm.
"Qian jiang shui qian jiang yue, thousands of miles without YunWanLi day", I am going to put comrade Fang Yonggang as a model of learning, clears buckish, open mind, to shape the great weather, the big state of mind of life. Model in the former, misfortune, I will be with high sense of responsibility and mission, teaching, a teacher by worthy example, climbing, innovation, enterprising, hard for the cause of medical education reform and development to make their greatest contribution.
's unrequited giving, dedication is a kind of dedication is a noble sentiment, is also a kind of common spirit; Contains both the lofty realm, also contains a different level. Dedication in both countries and people need the key point to stand up, generous in righteousness, and synthesize and penetration in daily work and life. Someone said: "the image of teachers is a candle, for students in all the light and heat; the teacher's personality is burning, for the students would rather destroy them; the teachers' behavior model, revealing the purity and integrity, and for the students the joy of the teacher is giving, for students to do the burning desire." Far-reaching road to the distance, rose dedicated to love; Dedicated to Marine baiyun dedicated to pasture, river; Youth and enthusiasm, and I want to give my students, education career dedicated to my love.

thank you.
thank you, president chen, chairmen ren, vice president chi, vice minister wei.
we are delighted to be here today with a very large american delegation, including the first lady and our daughter, who is a student at stanford, one of the schools with which beijing university has a relationship.
we have six members of the united states congress; the secretary of state; secretary of commerce; the secretary of agriculture; the chairman of our council of economic advisors; senator sasser, our ambassador; the national security advisor and my chief of staff, among others.
i say that to illustrate the importance that the united states places on our relationship with china.
i would like to begin by congratulating all of you, the students, the faculty, the administrators, on celebrating the centennial year of your university.
gongxi, beida.
(applause.)
as im sure all of you know, this campus was once home to yenching university which was founded by american missionaries.
many of its wonderful buildings were designed by an american architect.
thousands of americans students and professors have come here to study and teach.
we feel a special kinship with you.
i am, however, grateful that this day is different in one important respect from another important occasion 79 years ago.
in june of 1919, the first president of yenching university, john leighton stuart, was set to deliver the very first commencement address on these very grounds.
at the appointed hour, he appeared, but no students appeared.
they were all out leading the may 4th movement for chinas political and cultural renewal.
when i read this, i hoped that when i walked into the auditorium today, someone would be sitting here.
and i thank you for being here, very much.
(applause.)
over the last 100 years, this university has grown to more than 20,000 students.
your graduates are spread throughout china and around the world.
you have built the largest university library in all of asia.
last year, 20 percent of your graduates went abroad to study, including half of your math and science majors.
and in this anniversary year, more than a million people in china, asia, and beyond have logged on to your web site.
at the dawn of a new century, this university is leading china into the future.
i come here today to talk to you, the next generation of chinas leaders, about the critical importance to your future of building a strong partnership between china and the united states.
the american people deeply admire china for its thousands of years of contributions to culture and religion, to philosophy and the arts, to science and technology.
we remember well our strong partnership in world war ii.
now we see china at a moment in history when your glorious past is matched by your present sweeping transformation and the even greater promise of your future.
just three decades ago, china was virtually shut off from the world.
now, china is a member of more than 1,000 international organizations -- enterprises that affect everything from air travel to agricultural development.
you have opened your nation to trade and investment on a large scale.
today, 40,000 young chinese study in the united states, with hundreds of thousands more learning in asia, africa, europe, and latin america.
your social and economic transformation has been even more remarkable, moving from a closed command economic system to a driving, increasingly market-based and driven economy, generating two decades of unprecedented growth, giving people greater freedom to travel within and outside china, to vote in village elections, to own a home, choose a job, attend a better school.
as a result you have lifted literally hundreds of millions of people from poverty.
per capita income has more than doubled in the last decade.
most chinese people are leading lives they could not have imagined just 20 years ago.
of course, these changes have also brought disruptions in settled patterns of life and work, and have imposed enormous strains on your environment.
once every urban chinese was guaranteed employment in a state enterprise.
now you must compete in a job market.
once a chinese worker had only to meet the demands of a central planner in beijing.
now the global economy means all must match the quality and creativity of the rest of the world.
for those who lack the right training and skills and support, this new world can be daunting.
in the short-term, good, hardworking people -- some, at least will find themselves unemployed.
and, as all of you can see, there have been enormous environmental and economic and health care costs to the development pattern and the energy use pattern of the last 20 years -- from air pollution to deforestation to acid rain and water shortage.

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me is more important than facts.
It is more important than the past,than education,than money,than circumstances, than failures,than successes,than what the other people think,say,or do.
It is more important than the appearance,the giftedness or skill.
It will make or break a company,a church ,a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day, regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past.We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the one stage we have.And that is our attitudes.
I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me ,and ninety percent how I react to it.And so it is with you.
We are in charge of our attitudes.

We Are The World ,We Are The Future
Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I dont know who wrote these words, but Ive always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth is not a time of life, its a state of mind. Its not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. Its the matter of the will. Its the freshness of the deep spring of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being „s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of whats next and the joy of the game of living . In the center of your heart and my heart theres 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 .
Apoet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. Id like to share it with all of you. Lets show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, lets make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Dont cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, weve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. Weve learnt that we cant choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesnt mean you dont have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesnt mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, lets be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”

We all come to the world, but why do some of us make great achievements known forever and why are they remembered forever even though they leave the world? And why do some leave the world without anything valuable to his generation and the people? Every one of us will hope to have a significant and valuable life. But what kind of life is both significant and valuable? Answers to the questions are …… "If you cherish your value of your own life, you will create something valuable for the world." Johann Goth said. "The life value should be judged from his contribution rather than his profession." Einstein said. Lei Feng, a communist soldier, said, "one lives to make others a more beautiful life."
As we all know, Marx is an outstanding and great man. He founded his brilliant and scientific theory of communism. The theory guides the ways for the human being's liberation. Marx said, "If we can elect one suitable profession, we won't be demoralized with its pressure, because we make sacrifice for human beings. Only by this way will we not be addicted to the joy of narrow-minded and individualism. Our happiness belongs to thousands upon thousands of people. I see, although it may be unknown, our cause will never be forgot forever. Even when we depart to God, the kind people will tear down upon our ashes." When he said these words, he was only 17 years old. He meant his word with his deeds in his late lifetime period. After his death, on his 100-birthday anniversary, the proletarian and the revolutionary people of the whole world still cherish the memory of Marx and mourn him respectively.
It is his distinguishingable contribution to the mankind that his life is that significant. It is his great devotion to the human being that his life value is beyond measure. We also know that Lu Xun is a man of great. Without his nobility "Fierce-browed, I wooly defy a thousand point fingers, head bowed like a willing ox I serve the children", and without his spirit of his loyalty and devotion to the last for the bright future of the Chinese people, his life would not have been so significant and so great. Actually, didn't those regarded as essence of human who live forever in the hearts of people make great contributions to the cause of the people? Wouldn't the people remember those whose great achievements for human are recorded in history? We know for certain that not every of us will be a second Marx or Lu Xun. However, a person of noble aspirations will do solid work. Struggle
continuously and effortless. He will try to make his greatest contribution in his shortest time. He will try what he can to bring benefit to the people in his lifetime. We'd say it is impossible for one to live alone if he isolates society and people. If he hopes to make a benefit life, he will bring benefit and make contribution to people. As a socialist youth, he will devote his life to the cause of communism in order to make a benefit life. Moreover, we say that a value of life will be only in direct proportion to achievement and contribution he makes to our society. In our real life, we can see many revolutionary martyrs die young for the people. Don't you think they cherish the life? Yes. They do. They are sentimentally attached to life; they are full of hope and desire. But they confront the death bravely and resolutely in order to make many more people live. Their brilliant status will be living in the hearts of people. They die glorious and great.
The life of those who die busy about his lifetime without any achievements can not be compared with their life. In our real life, we have many cases like those. Life is endless and tackling key problems will be continuous. Let's take these as examples. Mr. Jing Zhuying worked for the Chinese science causes to the last of his life. Mr. Zhang Hua sacrificed his own young life for the sake of others, which set a good example of the communist. Mr. An Ke died for fulfillment for the duty as a citizen. Ms Zhang Haiti, compared to be Paul of our time, worked very hard and faced frustrations of her life, though she was disabled. She still continues to live on bravely.
All these are the strong of their life. Their value of life is precious. My fellow students, don't you say what a beautiful life they have? Beethoven once said; "I must learn to control my life which will never make me give myself up. Oh, If only I can live more than thousands times!" Paul Cocking also had a golden saying, "Life is but one." I think every youth of us keep this in our minds. let's turn it into reality with our deeds.
Let's not be a man full of promises but without any deeds, like Lusting, one of the characters by Dougeshefol. My fellow students, let's not wander. Let's not hesitate. Only lament and vexation does not mean consideration and exploration. Only lament and vexation does not mean advancing and does not mean mature at all. Let's not kill our lifetime by playing cards. Let's not waste our youth by drinking. Let's not destroy our will without any achievements. Let's make great contribution to human. And only by these can we create benefit life. Every one will have to die and every body will be rotten. But every one may make achievements and contributions. We hate being rotten. Let's brighten up! Up! And up!
