for the love of my fatherover the years, i never thought of my father asbeing very emotional, and he never was, at least not in front of me. even thoughhe was 68 years old and only five-foot-nine, while i was six feet and 260pounds, he seemed huge to me. i always saw him as being that staunchdisciplinarian who rarely cracked a smile. my father never told me he loved mewhen i was a child, and i never held it against him. i think that all i reallywanted was for my dad to be proud of me. in my youth, mom always showered mewith “i love you’s” every day. so i really never thought about not hearing itfrom my dad. i guess deep down i knew that he loved me, he just never said it.come to think of it, i don’t think i ever told him that i loved him, either. inever really thought about it much until i faced the reality of death.
on november 9th, 1990, i received word that my national guard unit was beingactivated for operation desert shield. we would convoy to fort ben harrison,indiana, and then directly to saudi arabia. i had been in the guard for 10 yearsand never dreamed that we would be activated for a war, even though i knew itwas what we trained for. i went to my father and gave him the news. i couldsense he was uneasy about me going. we never discussed it much more, and eightdays later i was gone.
i have several close relatives who have been in the military during war time.my father and uncle were in world war ii, and two brothers and a sister servedin vietnam. while i was extremely uneasy about leaving my family to serve mycountry in a war zone, i knew it was what i had to do. i prayed that this wouldmake my father proud of me. my father is very involved in the veterans offoreign wars organization and has always been for a strong military. i was noteligible to join the veterans of foreign wars because i had not been in a warzone—a fact that always made me feel like i didn’t measure up in my father’seyes. but now here i was, his youngest son, being shipped off to a foreign land9,000 miles away, to fight a war in a country we had barely heard of before.
on november 17, 1990, our convoy of military vehicles rolled out of ruralgreenville, michigan. the streets were filled with families and well-wishers tosee us off. as we approached the edge of town, i looked out the window of mytruck and saw my wife, kim, my children, and mom and dad. they were all wavingand crying, except for my father. he just stood there, almost like a stonestatue. he looked incredibly old at that moment. i don’t know why, he justdid.
i was gone for that thanksgiving and missed our family’s dinner. there wasalways a crowd, with two of my sisters, their husbands and children, plus mywife and our family. it disturbed me greatly that i couldn’t be there. a fewdays after thanksgiving i was able to call my wife, and she told me somethingthat has made me look at my father in a different way ever since.
my wife knew how my father was about his emotions, and i could hear her voicequaver as she spoke to me. she told me that my father recited his usualthanksgiving prayer. but this time he added one last sentence. as his voicestarted to crack and a tear ran down his cheek, he said, “dear lord, pleasewatch over and guide my son, rick, with your hand in his time of need as heserves his country, and bring him home to us safely.” at that point he burstinto tears. i had never seen my father cry, and when i heard this, i couldn’thelp but start to cry myself. my wife asked me what was wrong. after regainingmy composure, i said, “i guess my father really does love me.”
eight months later, when i returned home from the war, i ran over and huggedmy wife and children in a flurry of tears. when i came to my father, i embracedhim and gave him a huge hug. he whispered in my ear, “i’m very proud of you,son, and i love you.” i looked that man, my dad, straight in the eyes as i heldhis head between my hands and i said, “i love you too, dad,” and we embracedagain. and then together, both of us cried.
ever since that day, my relationship with my father has never been the same.we have had many deep conversations. i learned that he’s always been proud ofme, and he’s not afraid to say “i love you” anymore. neither am i. i’m justsorry it took 29 years and a war to find it out.
"maybe you will forget those who shared pleasure with you, but you willremember those who tasted tears with you. " kahlil cirbran
“你也许会忘记那些与你一同笑过的人，但是你将永远记住那些与你一同伤心落泪的人。”---- kahlil girbran
everyone has a lot of friends and he must have his own friendship as well.but usually only when you get into trouble, will you know what the truefriendship is. the friend in need is the friend in deed. only the real friendswill help you when you are in trouble. if you establish your friendship when youare in trouble, make it go on forever.
每个人都有很多朋友，也一定有属于他自己的友谊。但是，通常只有当你遇到困难时，你才能知道什么是真正的友谊。患难见真情，只有真正的朋友会在你身处困境时帮助你。如果你在逆境中将友谊建立，那么请让它继续到永远。
maybe a boy and a girl become good friends. they feel very happy when theyare each other, but other students may think that they have fallen in love. ifyou were one of them, what would you do? if i were in that position, i would notcare about what anyone else may say. i only care about her feeling. we shouldknow that our friendship is pure without anything bad mixed. friendship is veryimportant for everyone, so i will let my friendship last forever.
也许一个女孩和一个男孩成为了好朋友，他们在一起会感到很幸福。但是，其他同学会认为他们相爱了。如果你是其中之一，你会怎么办?如果是我，我将不会在乎别人说什么，我只在乎她的感觉。我们应该明白，我们的友谊是纯洁的，是不含任何杂质的`。友谊对每个人都很重要，所以我会让我们的友谊继续下去。
everyone should know that he can not lose his opposite sex friends. if you donot make friends with your opposite sex classmates, then you have already losthalf of the friends. so you can make friends with all your classmates, and don'tbe shy. you should also pay enough attention to the friendship that you havealready established. don’t undermine it unless you want to hurt him. you shouldnever try to do so, for if you do that you will lose much in emotion.
每个人都应该明白你不能失去异性的朋友如果你不与异性同学交朋友，那么你就已经失去了一半朋友。所以你可以与你所有的同学交朋友，不要害羞。你同样也应该重视你已经建立的友谊，不要破坏它，除非你想伤害他。不过，请不要去尝试，如果你这么做你会失去太多的感情。
please cherish everything that you have already possessed. maybe you don'tcare about it now. but when you lose it, you will find that how important itis.
请珍惜你所拥有的一切也许你现在并不在乎，但当你失去时你会发现它是多么的重要。
hello everyone!
i am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
but one hundred years later, the negro still is not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languished in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. and so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
in a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable rights" of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation, america has given the negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."
Thank you!
To be sure, we are behind, and will be behind for some time in manned flight. But we do not intend to stay behind, and in this decade, we shall make up and move ahead.
The growth of our science and education will be enriched by new knowledge of our universe and environment, by new techniques of learning and mapping and observation, by new tools and computers for industry, medicine, the home as well as the school. Technical institutions, such as Rice, will reap the harvest of these gains.
And finally, the space effort itself, while still in its infancy, has already created a great number of new companies, and tens of thousands of new jobs. Space and related industries are generating new demands in investment and skilled personnel, and this city and this state, and this region, will share greatly in this growth. What was once the furthest outpost on the old frontier of the West will be the furthest outpost on the new frontier of science and space. Houston, your city of Houston, with its Manned Spacecraft Center, will become the heart of a large scientific and engineering community. During the next 5 years the National Aeronautics and Space Administration expects to double the number of scientists and engineers in this area, to increase its outlays for salaries and expenses to $60 million a year; to invest some $200 million in plant and laboratory facilities; and to direct or contract for new space efforts over $1 billion from this center in this city.
To be sure, all this costs us all a good deal of money. This year's space budget is three times what it was in January 1961, and it is greater than the space budget of the previous eight years combined. That budget now stands at $5,400 million a year--a staggering sum, though somewhat less than we pay for cigarettes and cigars every year.
Yet the vows of this Nation can only be fulfilled if we in this Nation are first, and, therefore, we intend to be first. In short, our leadership in science and industry, our hopes for peace and security, our obligations to ourselves as well as others, all require us to make this effort, to solve these mysteries, to solve them for the good of all men, and to become the world's leading space-faring nation.
We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science, like nuclear science and all technology, has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man, and only if the United States occupies a position of pre-eminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war. I do not say that we should or will go unprotected against the hostile misuse of space any more than we go unprotected against the hostile use of land or sea, but I do say that space can be explored and mastered without feeding the fires of war, without repeating the mistakes that man has made in extending his writ around this globe of ours.
There is no strife, no prejudice, no national conflict in outer space as yet. Its hazards are hostile to us all. Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind, and its opportunity for peaceful cooperation many never come again. But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?
We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.
It is for these reasons that I regard the decision last year to shift our efforts in space from low to high gear as among the most important decisions that will be made during my incumbency in the office of the Presidency.
In the last 24 hours we have seen facilities now being created for the greatest and most complex exploration in man's history. We have felt the ground shake and the air shattered by the testing of a Saturn C-1 booster rocket, many times as powerful as the Atlas which launched John Glenn, generating power equivalent to 10,000 automobiles with their accelerators on the floor. We have seen the site where five F-1 rocket engines, each one as powerful as all eight engines of the Saturn combined, will be clustered together to make the advanced Saturn missile, assembled in a new building to be built at Cape Canaveral as tall as a 48 story structure, as wide as a city block, and as long as two lengths of this field.
Within these last 19 months at least 45 satellites have circled the earth. Some 40 of them were made in the United States of America and they were far more sophisticated and supplied far more knowledge to the people of the world than those of the Soviet Union.
The Mariner spacecraft now on its way to Venus is the most intricate instrument in the history of space science. The accuracy of that shot is comparable to firing a missile from Cape Canaveral and dropping it in this stadium between the 40-yard lines.
Transit satellites are helping our ships at sea to steer a safer course. Tiros satellites have given us unprecedented warnings of hurricanes and storms, and will do the same for forest fires and icebergs.
We have had our failures, but so have others, even if they do not admit them. And they may be less public.
“never give up” can be very encouraging words, but the majority ofyoungsters are likely to give up regardless when dealing with the ordinarydifficulties of life. as one example, many young people are reluctant tocontinue their english study when they feel difficulty learning new words. butif one takes “never give up” as a motto, possibilities and opportunities areexpanded。
it is true that giving up may make things temporarily easier, but whatcannot be denied is that new opportunities arise from perseverance. never givingup can expand one’s possibility for success. when confronted with somethingunknown, a little bravery can result in the possibility of success, like whendr. fleming discovered penicillin. meanwhile, the sense of never giving upenhances one’s self-confidence. this makes one more likely to try new things,opening up even more new opportunities. it can even be a benefit to personalrelationships。
in view of all factors, never giving up is crucial to the pursuit ofdreams. even though toils lie in the way, success is at the other end.

The swallow, will come back again. The willow will be green again; Peach blossom thanks, have open again. But, dear friends, the youth, is never to return.
What is youth? Youth is a fire, burning the most fiery passion, I he temperature around you; Youth is a song, sing most passionate melody, let the music world. Youth is a rain, release the hearty personality, the comfortable and into the heart.
Youth, as people the best time of life, carrying the hope and the dream that too much. Youth is running hard, gorgeous fall after the brave stand up, continue to run. We use blood in the stage of youth is wanton act, screaming, sweat, with the courage to do the only we didn't dare to do at this age. Even if fall, also want to fall in the most beautiful posture! Yes, because of have, exciting youth, so mayday from had an underground development to the present Asian group, on the first day on the music rushes out a slice of heaven and earth; Because of have, exciting youth, so towards the sunshine, with li Yang from the failure of inferiority to the public, give the American people since the with fluent English. I admire such people, because they make the youth float in the sky, they to strive, to strive, to create their own beautiful tomorrow.
But not everyone can like mayday, like li Yang can grasp so precious the perishable youth. In some people, willing to mediocrity, muddle along, never thought about what live to; Some people want to dry out a career, but cannot pluck up the courage to do, step out the first step on the road to success, also led to the final. YueFeiCeng said: "the mo, white young head, in vain." Dear friends, do you really want to in the escape, spend your youth in mediocrity, losing in the process of pursuing dream happy, let youth folding wing?
I appreciate such a word - even if you don't succeed, you also can't be blank. So I try to, I struggle, I hope in the university four years, make public youth, be yourself, live a good, live out the value. So, dear friends, let us together, with new confidence, we tried to come up with enthusiasm to pursue their dreams of our youth. Can let us in the future when university graduate looking back again, can have no regret to myself: "I don't have a dull, regret the youth."
My friends, let our youth fly in the sun.
Food Safety
A miracle - we are still alive
Over the past couple of years, several cases of the food scandal have been disclosed on various media. The problem of food security has become a hot button across society. The prevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted public health, which the government could not afford to ignore.
Leather milk, substandard milk powder, illegal cooking oil exposed in recent years. It’s greatly influence our live.
There are a couple of driving forces, I would argue, behind this undesirable tide. First, in the course of the rapid economic evolution, we ignore moral education, giving rise to the rising rate of the problem. More importantly, the lack of adequate regulation and punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend.
In fact, the poisonous food associated with Japan. In China, a variety of pesticides, antibiotics, antibiotics are from Japan. In a manner of speaking, the problem of Chinese food should be attributed to Japan.
In 1990s, Japanese companies were optimistic about China's cheap labor and the huge market potential. And then the Japanese companies have entered China with the tide of reform and opening up. In 1980s, Japan began to surge in China's pesticide export. In 1984, export volume had reached 26.5 billion yen. It’s irresponsible that Japanese companies take pesticides and antibiotics to China. In addition, Japan did not give a detailed description of the pesticides.
Our country also make a list of healthy food additives and some law about it. However, many food manufacturers do not obey it and use lots of illegal food additives .These food additives are harmful to our body .For example, sanlu milk powder is added in illegal chemicals. If babies eat it, they will get gallstone disease. Another hot button is illegal cooking oil. Many restaurants use the illegal cooking oil to reduce the cost so they can get more profits .However, the illegal cooking oil contains a large of chemicals that will cause cancer .So it is very terrible.
I observe that profits drive many food producers to commit illegal things. They aim to gain more money at the expense of consumers’ health. Second, the overuse of agricultural pesticide has resulted in the degradation of food quality. The excessive pesticide bears enormous health hazard for people. Furthermore, some food producers inject hormones into domestic animals so as to make them grow more quickly and thus they can turn in more profit. As a result, people’s health has been seriously disturbed. Though many other countries, even countries like the U.S. and Japan, have also experienced food safety crises in some periods of their development, maybe none of them has witnessed food safety problems on such a large scale and during such a long period of time. Actually, problematic food products had been with us for quite a long time before we realized them and almost no single food or even drink can be claimed absolutely safe. Flours may contain too much chemicals like brightener that can turn them into the desirable color; meat might have been produced by animals that have consumed chemicals to add to the red part of meat; vegetables may have too much remnants of pesticides on their leaves; even milk and other beverages may have in them poisonous chemicals to make them smell flagrant and tasty.
There is no denying the fact that food safety is a grave problem with which this country is confronted. A joke goes that everyone who can survive in China can
survive in any other part of the world, which means that the test one faces in China in terms of food safety is the gravest in the world. The most notable instance might be the notorious San Lu milk powder scandal which has drawn considerable publicity in the past months. Causing kidney stones among thousands of infants and deaths of some of them, the milk powder containing overdose melamine is but one example of numerous substandard food products in this country. While blaming those wrongdoers and sympathizing those victims, we must examine the fundamental causes of the problem and work out effective solutions.
Why are substandard food products so rampant in China? Poor supervision and law enforcement might be the leading reason. Actually, we do have such departments as the bureau of food safety supervision and administration and the bureau of industry and commerce in various levels of the government, but are they really functioning or fulfilling their duties? The answer is most possibly no. We do not have to go to factories or markets to check their performance.
We only need to go and have a look at those restaurants to know that those bureaus are not working. I believe that every one of us has noticed that tableware is not properly sanitized in some restaurants but no one says or does anything about that phenomenon.
Truly, some will condemn those manufacturers as immoral and profit-hunting, but it is nothing to blame for an enterprise to go after returns within the limit of law and almost all companies will take the risk if the cost of producing substandard food is as low as it used to be.
We needn’t go far to see the disastrous consequences of the food safety crisis. Not only are people’s health and lives directly threatened, but tremendous amounts of resources are wasted. The thousands of tons of milk powder burned to ashes is a case in point. Furthermore, an atmosphere of dishonesty and disbelief will permeate the entire society, which will not only hinder the development of economy but will ruin the nation spiritually.
Therefore, it is high time that pertinent laws and regulations were worked out and rigidly enforced to crack down on any production and circulation of substandard food products. Meanwhile, inactive and incompetent civil servants should be immediately purged from the team of food safety supervision and administration. Only with these measures taken can we expect a bright future of this nation.
今天是万圣节，我们戴上各式各样的面具，穿上五彩缤纷的衣裳，去学校参加活动。
到了那里，外语老师像幽灵一样地走进来，他穿着洁白无瑕的衣裳，脸上涂着***。外语老师像野兽一样地扑来，吓得我们四处乱蹿。外语老师见我们吓成这样不禁“哈哈”大笑。外语老师还放碟子给我们看。我正看得津津有味时，外语老师跑到我身后大叫一声“啊……”吓得我面无人色。
到了下午，外语老师给我们介绍了两个人，一个是米丽，她打扮得像个小巫婆。还有一个是白比，他打扮得像个小博士。他俩拿出一大袋糖，洒了儿把，糖果像雨点一样地落下来，我们以闪电般地速度冲过去抢糖。
时光过得真快，一转眼就放学了，看着装得满满的口袋，我心想：这个万圣节可真开心啊!我最喜欢万圣节!
Today is Halloween. We wear all kinds of masks, wear colorful clothes andgo to school.
There, the foreign language teacher came in like a ghost. He was dressed inflawless white clothes and white powder on his face. The foreign languageteacher came at him like a wild animal and scared us to run around. The foreignlanguage teacher was so shocked that he laughed. The foreign language teachershowed us the dishes. I was watching with relish, the foreign language teacherran up behind me and shouted, "ah... "I was scared out of my skin.
In the afternoon, the foreign language teacher introduced us to two people.One was Millie and she was dressed like a witch. Another is whitby. He's dressedlike a doctor. They took out a large bag of sugar and sprinkled it, and thesweets fell down like raindrops, and we rushed over them with lightningspeed.
How time flies, the whole time passes, the school is out of school, look infull pocket, I thought: this Halloween is really happy ah! I like Halloweenbest!
Good morning, everybody .
It is my pleasure to stand there to share my topic with you. Today , I ’d like to talk about the civilization in campus.
Several days ago, I read a post on weibo which sparked many discussions-----
A sanitation worker complained on weibo that it is much more difficult to serve college students than pupils. What makes more miserable is that their wages would be cut 20 yuan if there is some litter left inspected by the authority. After reading this, I felt shocked and wondered whether our college students acquire more knowledge but less virtue?
Absolutely , we are gaining the knowledge and the ability to equip ourselves, however, the lack of self-discipline is widespread among us. To improve good morality, we should not eat on class, make noises in library, leave litter on seat and so on.
Everyone can not be indifferent to these uncivilized behaviors. Because ‘What goes around comes around’, A little effort on being civilized enable you to gain great rewards ,which is that you can earn
more respect and become popular.
I encourage that to create a civilization campus is our responsibilities, and take actions now.
Hello,everyone!
Today I am very happy,Because I can talk about with you.
You see I am a lovely girl,yes!I like laughing,I like studying.
That`s me-- zhuyingjie from Badong shiyan primary school.I am
eight. I am young but I know “we are the masters of nature.”
We have only one earth. But now,the environment becomes worse and worse. Asyou know,there's no enough clean water for people.
So many of them lose their lives because of water.If we take good care ofour earth today,it will be more beautiful tomorrow.
My dear friend let us start from the trivial side,To be a good kidkeeper.
译文：你好,每个人!
今天我很高兴,因为我可以和你谈谈。
你看到我是一个可爱的女孩,是的!我喜欢笑,我喜欢学习。
这就是我——从巴东zhuyingjie十堰小学。我是
八。我很年轻但我知道“我们是大自然的主人。”
我们只有一个地球。但是现在,环境变得越来越差。如你所知,没有足够的干净的水。
很多人失去他们的生命,因为水。如果我们照顾好我们的地球的今天,它将更美好的明天。
我亲爱的朋友,让我们从身边的小事做起,成为一个好孩子。
President pitzer Mr. Vice President, Governor, Congressman Thomas, Senator Wiley, and Congressman Miller, Mr. Webb, Mr. Bell, scientists, distinguished guests, and ladies and gentlemen:
I appreciate your president having made me an honorary visiting professor, and I will assure you that my first lecture will be very brief.
I am delighted to be here and I'm particularly delighted to be here on this occasion.
We meet at a college noted for knowledge, in a city noted for progress, in a state noted for strength, and we stand in need of all three, for we meet in an hour of change and challenge, in a decade of hope and fear, in an age of both knowledge and ignorance. The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds.
Despite the striking fact that most of the scientists that the world has ever known are alive and working today, despite the fact that this Nation's own scientific manpower is doubling every 12 years in a rate of growth more than three times that of our population as a whole, despite that, the vast stretches of the unknown and the unanswered and the unfinished still far outstrip our collective comprehension.
No man can fully grasp how far and how fast we have come, but condense, if you will, the 50,000 years of man's recorded history in a time span of but a half-century. Stated in these terms, we know very little about the first 40 years, except at the end of them advanced man had learned to use the skins of animals to cover them. Then about 10 years ago, under this standard, man emerged from his caves to construct other kinds of shelter. Only five years ago man learned to write and use a cart with wheels. Christianity began less than two years ago. The printing press came this year, and then less than two months ago, during this whole 50-year span of human history, the steam engine provided a new source of power. Newton explored the meaning of gravity. Last month electric lights and telephones and automobiles and airplanes became available. Only last week did we develop penicillin and television and nuclear power, and now if America's new spacecraft succeeds in reaching Venus, we will have literally reached the stars before midnight tonight.
This is a breathtaking pace, and such a pace cannot help but create new ills as it dispels old, new ignorance, new problems, new dangers. Surely the opening vistas of space promise high costs and hardships, as well as high reward.
So it is not surprising that some would have us stay where we are a little longer to rest, to wait. But this city of Houston, this state of Texas, this country of the United States was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them. This country was conquered by those who moved forward--and so will space.
William Bradford, speaking in 1630 of the founding of the Plymouth Bay Colony, said that all great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties, and both must be enterprised and overcome with answerable courage.
If this capsule history of our progress teaches us anything, it is that man, in his quest for knowledge and progress, is determined and cannot be deterred. The exploration of space will go ahead, whether we join in it or not, and it is one of the great adventures of all time, and no nation which expects to be the leader of other nations can expect to stay behind in this race for space.
Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be a part of it--we mean to lead it. For the eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond, and we have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest, but by a banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons of mass destruction, but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, honorable judges and distinguished guest! This is Alex time! Ha-ha…My topic today is to show our gratitude to people around you.
Then what is gratitude? At the moment a well-known song comes into my mind. Yes, that is called Heart of feel grateful. My heart is filled up with gratitude because I’m with you/Your make me courageous to be myself from cradle to the grave/So now I wanna thank for destiny/I’ll cherish the flower when it blooms until falls. The poetic lyric tells us that gratitude is actually a state of mind.
Once upon a time, the Pilgrims took the May Flower Ship to North America. They started a new life there although a lot of difficulties and hardships they encountered. After a long-time work, they got a big harvest. The Pilgrims had a feast in 1621 near Plymouth, Massachusetts, which is often referred to as the first Thanksgiving. People show their sincere gratitude towards the God, the nature, the earth, the river, the Indians and themselves.
Good afternoon ，ladies and gentlemen!
I’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! To begin with ,I want to ask a question .Does everybody dream a good dream last night? Actually ,today I want to talk about dream with you. Of course, What I want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream—— about life.
Everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. Dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners(水手),we can chart our course by them. With the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.With the dream, there is hope,With hope, we have the strength to fight.
But I know，life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead .
Young!Fortunately, I am young now. Just due to it, I know that nothing is impossible.I firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. If
I can't realize my dream,it result from that I haven't work harder enough and I won't find other excuses. If no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. If you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
"My breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in Kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains." At some time in the past I also had am bitious words and I had some achievements. Each achievement results from my hard work. I always believe that "If you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder."
In some extent, the dream is the hope. If you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today. Let's--- move ----out!
Thank you for your listening!
Call in the dream, we gradually GREw up thinking of gradually mature, and have learned more and more, understand more and more.
Our dream is also more and more content, more and more rich.
One can not forget that book title mountain crossing the sea during the day and night; not forget that the coexistence of a bitter years of joy; not forget that a bit more earnest remainding respectable mentor taught ... ...
The face of the past, we open their minds and hearts of the door, bathed in sunlight to accept and listen to exhort the time, we dream of flying.
Is to achieve the dream of the cornerstones of long-term vision; the dream is the beginning of the power savings; dream world is a necessary condition for rational; dream Qijia country is the premise of the world is flat.
To this end, the respect of ethics, education can be clearly responsible for, love.
We will be ready at all times ... ...
Singing rooster dawn broke through the silence, awakened the dream of youth, the old lamp that lit the lamp immortal, with the aid of a weak good care of the light heavy luggage, embark on a new journey began.
Eastern rising sun, leaving a string attached to their native land is the footprints of the feelings and give up.
Goodbye dear land, we have our dreams, we all need to face new.
The rudder has been the fate into their own hands, taking their own route.
Believe in yourself and you work hard, must be clear after dark.
To do the masters of time, for every seconds, when the ship set sail hard, you are ready?
Show your style and create brilliant tomorrow.

Recently， a popularserioushot topic es into the eyes of our universal bodies as the cartoon depicts。 From the picture， we can see that a middle-age housewife， perplexed and terrified， is picking out her daily diet from a pile of undesirable things， such as illegal-cooking oil， fruits with excessive pesticide and the like。
It seems that there are many factors can be mentioned and accounted for this kind of case， and in my perspective， the followings are the obvious and have a far-fetching influence。 On the one hand， the merchants in an increasing number are aiming at maximizing their profits with the minimal principal in the wider ranges of petitive and more open social background。 On the other hand， it is the inplete system of law that has less supervision of the producing and processing of modities。
Considering all the points discussed， it is highly sensible that we should take prompt measures to resolve this problem。 In the first place， more bettering policies should be brought forward。 In the second，more moral schooling should be applied in all munities。 Only by enforcing these measures， can we effectively， efficiently， and eventually solve the problem。
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 morning.Now, 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 year.But 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.
Dear E_aminer, you judge a teacher:
Pass the e_am, today, I am the first results of this post written into theinterview. To me, this opportunity is particularly valuable.
My name is ___, 27 years old this year. July 1997 I __ Normal Schoolartists Fine Arts graduate program at their own e_pense. As from 97 countries nolonger their own e_pense since health package distribution, so that I and "themost brilliant career under the sun" missed. Fortunately, at River West Malaysiafactory complete lack of small teacher, was introduced, I finished in the smallas a one-year temporary substitute teachers.
Recall that period of time both sweet and really good, although substitutelow wages, but listening to students around the side of "teacher", "teacher" iscalled a stop, looked full of confidence which both eyes, then a picture ofchildlike small face, all the unhappiness in life are suddenly vanished. Iwanted, if not to positive, as long as the school needs, that is, when the lifeI willingly substitute teachers. But then, countries started in 1998 and returnof temporary and substitute teachers, the school received an oral notice, Iharbored feelings reluctantly and quietly left the school.
Today, I would like to re-e_amination by the aspirations of the rostrum isso urgent! My family a total of three sisters, two sisters who work, in order totake care of the elderly parents, I have to stay around them. I have held ashop, first operational craft, then garments. But regardless of how theirbusiness is handy, when a teacher is always glorious people yearn for and Iwould like to make every effort to pursue life-long career. I have to take thetest several times, but for various reasons are unable to realize their dreams,but I secretly determined, given the chance, I have been test continue until theideal realized.
Today, I am, after the test of life, than my competitors in terms of age Ino longer have an advantage, but I'm more than a child they love, patience andsense of responsibility, more of a mature and self-confidence.
The teaching profession is sacred and great, he asked teachers not onlymust be knowledgeable, but also a noble sentiment. Thus, normal reading, I wasvery focused on the comprehensive development of its widely develop their ownhobbies, and learned a trade, to do things than good at painting andcalligraphy, but also sing, speak, speak. "High school only as a teacher,inspires them for the Fan" in the knowledge-learning and I also paid attentionto develop their own high moral character, consciously abide by the law, abideby social morality, no bad habits and behavior. I think these are all educatorsshould have a minimum quality.
If, I passed the interview, a member of many teachers in, I will continueto study hard, work hard for home education contribute their efforts to live upto "the human soul," this glorious title.
