Dear leaders, teachers and students：
hello everyone!
There is a fable that a man caught a young eagle in an eagle's nest on the top of a high mountain. He took the young eagle home and kept it in a chicken cage. The young eagle pecks, plays and rests with the chicken every day. He thinks he is also a chicken. When the chicken grows up, its wings are plump. The master wanted to train it into a falcon, but because it was mixed with chickens all day, it had become a chicken and had no desire to fly at all. The master tried all kinds of methods, but they didn't work. Finally, he took it to the top of the mountain and threw it out. The eagle fell like a stone. In a hurry, he flapped his wings desperately. In this way, he finally flew up!
This fable tells us that if we don't know how to fight, struggle and explore the potential deep in our hearts, we can never fly, but just a chicken in a cage. I think this may be the true meaning of autonomous learning!
Here, we would like to thank the teacher for providing me with a shortcut to the end of learning, and let us rekindle the courage to climb the peak of learning. He is like a spring slowly surging in our hearts, he is like a flower of success thriving in the soil of knowledge, and he is like a mountain eagle flying in the broad blue sky again in the fable! Finally, I wish our self-management and cooperative learning will blossom better and better!
Thank you!
Sports are more than competitions. To me, they mean growth under the care of others. I learned this the hard way.
I used to be very shy and often felt lonely. Although I did well in all the academic subjects, I was afraid of physical education. My classmates often laughed at me.
“Look at that girl,” they said. “Her feet don’t leave the ground when she runs!”
Their words embarrassed me. Moreover, whenever the teacher organized some competitive games, no one in the class liked to have me as their partner or team member. As a result, I often ended up looking at others enjoy their games.
Things would go on like that if not for a sports meet in my high school. By mistake, my name was put on the list of those who would compete in the women’s 1500 meters race. By the time people found the mistake, it was too late to change.
My desk-mate was a natural athlete. She said to me, “I couldn’t run that race in your place, because I’ve signed up for three items already.” Other athletic girls of the class said the same.
I was utterly dumbfounded. 1500 meters! Running against the best runners from other classes! And in front of students of the entire school! It would be the worst nightmare I’d ever have!
“You still have time to catch up because there is still one month before the sports meet,” they all said this to me, including my teacher.
My desk-mate patted me on the shoulder, “Cool! You will run for our class! And we will do training together.” Yes, this is not just for myself, but for my class too, I said to myself. But still, 1500 meters to me was like Mount Everest to a beginning climber. I had no idea even how to start my preparation.
Fortunately, my desk-mate gave me a hand. Every afternoon after class, several of us ran together. When the fear of being laughed at struck me, I saw others running right beside me. They gave me strengths. While we were running, some others would stand by the tracks cheering for us.
One month certainly couldn’t make me a good runner. But when I was standing behind the start line, I no longer felt lonely or afraid. I saw my classmates standing by the tracks waving at me as if about to run beside me.
With the shot of the starting gun, I dashed out and ran as fast as I could, as if it were a 200-meter race. Soon I was out of breath and slowed down. Other runners passed me one by one, and gradually I had no idea how many of them were still behind me. My legs were getting heavier and heavier, and I might fall down at any moment. However, I suddenly heard my classmates chanting my name. My desk-mate even ran along the tracks beside me and cheered for me at the same time, just like the month-long training we did together.
As expected, I was almost the last to cross the finish line. Immediately, my classmates held my arms and urged me to walk on my feet and not to sit down. I was surrounded, with all kinds of drinks handed to me. I felt a kind of warmth I had never felt before. Even though I was almost the last to finish the race, I was full of confidence that I would improve in the future.
That sports meet was an unforgettable experience. The memory of my classmates cheering for me, holding my arms and handing me drinks stays fresh on my mind. Sports are no longer about winning or losing. They give me a lot of confidence, both confidence in my fellow students and confidence in my own potential. I am no longer lonely, no longer afraid. Sports have brought me close to my classmates and helped us grow together.
Now, I participate in the sports meet every year. Even if I am not competing, I would help my classmates with their practice, just like the way my desk-mate and others ran with me.
My favorite food is Chinese dumpling; its pronunciation is jiao zi inChinese. It is a traditional Chinese food and essential during holidays inNorthern China. And it is also popular in other Chinese holidays or festivals,so it is part of the Chinese culture or tradition.
I like eating dumpling not because I am from Northern China but because itis really very delicious and stand for reunion. My family usually eat dumplingwhen all the members of family come together. Making dumplings with my sistersis the happiest thing for me.
Chinese dumpling is one of the most important foods in Spring Festival.Since Chinese food is famous all over the world, if you ask a foreigner how aboutChinese food, they will be full of praise.
When we see the movie, Chinese food is praised by the people. Recently,there is a famous movie called A Bite of China, the movie is popular, itintroduces Chinese food from different places. The audience is attracted by thedelicious food, they never thought Chinese food would be so various. Now thesecond part of the movie has been made out, more and more Chinese traditionalfood has been introduced. After appreciating the movie, I begin to learn moreabout Chinese food, I want to have taste of them. I am so proud of our food,when we talk about it to foreign friends, we can feel their favor of our food.The food is part of our culture, they should be inherited.
honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen, good morning.
first of all, let me take this chance to present to you a set of data that i hope won't bore you since the source is china daily.
china's tourism revenue last year reached 500 billion rmb, an increase of 10.5 percent from the year before, and comprised more than 5% of china's gdp. according to experts, this number will grow to 8% in the coming ten years and more than 40 million jobs will be created.
as a student majoring in economics, i can't be more sensitive to the essential meanings behind these numbers. they mean progress, prosperity, employment and stability.
however, as a conscientious chinese and citizen of the world, i can't help but care more about the losses incurred in this transaction, by which i mean the disturbing images of environmental destruction, which leads to ecological crisis. the global environment has changed for the worse during the past few years, and tourism is partly to blame. take china for example, in order to attract tourists, many unknown places are built into resorts. forests are cleared, prairies trampled, rivers and lakes 6)contaminated, wild animals are driven away, plants jeopardized and secluded populations disturbed.
if this seems too remote and abstract, my own traveling experience may speak louder here. last year i took a tour around emei mountain in sichuan province. like most tourists, i was eager to embrace nature and enjoy its beauty. however, as soon as i got on the bus, the stench of gasoline and the noise of the engine tainted my appreciation of the wonderful scenery and the tranquility of the country road. when we finally arrived, what i saw was not a beautiful landscape but crowds of people; what i heard was not the melodious singing of birds, but yelling and bargaining from the gift shops; what i smelled was not the fresh mountain air, but stinking suffocating smoke coming out of small dirty restaurants. moreover, i could not understand why the lovely monkeys living there had to take photos with tourists all day; why the beautiful butterflies and flowers had become lifeless samples in shop windows; why the strongest impressions i had was trash scattered everywhere on the ground.
however, this is not the end of the story. before i left emei, i met a group of kids in an ecotourism program with the slogan: “experiencing, learning and protecting.” when i saw their young hands picking up trash from the ground, when i felt their enjoyment and harmonious relationship with the animals, when i found their purest eyes filled with passion and love for nature, i realized to my great satisfaction that there doesn't have to be a tradeoff between tourism and ecology, because deep within us is an inclination toward natural beauty and a desire to protect it. yes, environmental problems will eventually ease with the advancement of science and technology and improvement of our management system. however, an increase of ecological education and hands-on environmental involvement of our fellow citizens will do even better. to realize this, the best way for us lies in tourism itself because nothing other than nature can teach us how to love and cherish our sweetest home. at the end of my speech, please let me quote bob dylan:
how many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?
how many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?
how many years can a mountain exist before it's washed to the sea?
the answer, my friend, is not in the wind-the answer is ours! thank you!
Hello everyone,I'm .My topic is "we should protect earth". As we all notice,the weather becomes very odd recently.In a month like now,it should be quite warm,but I'm still wearing my winter dresses.It's still rather cold,which shouldn't happen at this season.In summer it's extremely cold while terribly hot in winter.All these factors make earth a unfavourible place to live in. here you can show some pictures or other materials you have collected. We all know that earth is our common mother.
We all live in it.She provides us everyting we need.She has been enormously generous to us.We should do our best to care for her. Now before it's too late,I think we should start to take actions.Protect the earth starting from you and me,from what we can do ourselves.For instance,ALWAYS throw rubbish in the bin and etc. Besides,we should try our best to know more about environment protection knowledge.The bad weather has made us suffer a lot.I believe everyone here has the same feeling as mine.I guess that's the price we paid for doing harm to the earth.We have nobody but ourselves to blame for that. At last,have you seen the movie"the day after tommorrow".It's a movie about weather.It's a good one and worth to have a look. thank you!
Everyone knows that Halloween is on October 31st every year, and onHalloween, everyone is dressed in ghost costumes. Do you know why? Ha ha, I willtell you: because the western New Year in November, they think that the nightbefore New Year, there are a lot of haunted by the ghost, elves, goblins,vampires, we wear ghost costumes, they think we are ghosts, not afraid, so wehave to wear ghost costumes.
So why do you want to make a jack-o '-lantern? I'll tell you: because theywant to cheat us, for example the fallen angels, they are the enemy of mankind,we carved an image of a face on the pumpkin, they is a smile, when a foolmeeting you!
I think you know the origin of Halloween!
Parents gave me life in this world, I love the most is them.
Expressing of loving parents do not need to pass a language that I lovethem. Whatever we can do some little things. In the Fathers Day or Mothers Day, we can prepare a delicious breakfast for them.We can remember theirbirthdays. In their birthdays, we dont need to buy gifts, but have to say happy birthday.
When parents come home from work,we can hand them a cup of hot water to makethem relax.We can help parents to share some of the housework, so that they havemore time to rest. As part of the family, we should take active to do housework. If we read out, we should always contact them, tell them recent things of our own. Letthem not worry about us.
It is known to all our parents love is priceless, is not asking foranything. We should love them in return. But, parents can be very simple love. Aslong as the life of more concern to them, for them to have been verysatisfied. Just do it.
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
At first, you must understand the meaning of climate change.
It means any long-term significant change in the average weather, which may include average temperature, precipitation, wind patterns and so on. For example, Australia is experiencing rapid climate change. Since the middle of the twentieth century, Australian temperatures have risen by about average one temperature degree with an increase in the frequency of heat waves and a decrease in the numbers of frosts and cold days.
Rainfall patterns have also changed, which means that the northwest has seen an increase in rainfall over the last fifty years while much of eastern Australia and the far southwest have experienced a decline. From this example, it indicates climate change that is occurring today has sped up, and affects long-term weather. The Earth’s climate is largely affected by how much heat is stored in the atmosphere. Furthermore, the climate change is caused by dynamic process on Earth, external forces including variations in sunlight intensity, and more recently by human activities.
I have a question for you. ‘Do you know how to breathe?’ Okay, I know what you are thinking now, “Girl, are you kidding me? Everybody knows how to breathe.” Actually, if I were you sitting down in there one year ago, I would think, “How did she make it to the final?”
Alright, seriously speaking, what I am talking about is “the art of breathing”, and it’s about breathing in a Yoga way: peacefully and always under control. What it reveals is the real essence of perseverance, “In order to achieve, sometimes, you need to wait.” And when it comes to things you really want in life, it is as hard as it could possibly be.
For me, singing is a life thing. When I am singing on the stage, I feel whole-heartedly involved, and the self-fulfillment it renders is inexplicably thrilling. But with all the realistic problems I need to face in life, all those I want seem too far to be true– so far that I am terrified that I will never ever be able to get there and that gradually I will be carried away by the currents and torrents of life. I’ve been drowned into this ambivalence for so long. Now, with a refined perspective towards self-realization, I am waiting, in a graceful posture, and knowing that I am going to get there. And on this, I should say, I owe Yoga a thank-you.
I still remember, about one year ago, I attended a Yoga course for the very first time. And to tell you the truth, I went there for a nice figure. However, after practicing for some time, I discovered that there was an ineffable inner-strength burgeoning sneakily in me while I totally focused. In order not to let go this significant power, I started to picture all I wanted in my mind while I was fully concentrating, for I believe the wings of imagination could make things possible. I learned to breathe with my dreams, shaping the eagerness into this elegant gesture of persisting.
And now, if you ask me what exactly is “the art of breathing”, I would say it is indeed “the art of living”. It combines the search of balance, the grace of patience, and the awareness of appreciation.
So even though feelings are tied up with life routines, I could still hold onto that free EGO which I have always adored: the girl who is singing under the spotlight, with all her heart and soul; the girl who is persevering with all she believes in and always feels grateful for what has been bestowed on her.
That girl is now standing right here in front of you, hoping that you are all as lucky as she is, living with dreams and love. No matter how tough things get, I tell myself, I tell myself that, every single thing I am doing now is every step closer to that very moment of my trajectory, just like every Yoga breath to every blossom moment of my life.
ladies and gentlemen,
i have had a lot of teachers in my school who have given me much help in my study. for their help i will never forget them. but today i am going to talk about a special teacher of mine. this teacher is not a human being and its name is“computer”. it has been teaching me a lot of knowledge and i appreciate it very much.
with the development of modern science and technology, computers are widely used in every teritories including education. how can a computer be my teacher? how does a computer teach me? multimedia(多媒体)helps a lot in this aspect in recent years, and computer-based training (cbt) has become a popular educational medium (手段). even before the multimedia come up, many different learning systems appeared, using the components and techniques we now associate with the term “multimedia”. multimedia components, such as graphics (动画) , animations , sound and video, make the learning process easier through visualization. animations can present many comple_ subjects dynamically, but human teachers can not do this on blackboards. multimedia makes our study more lively and interesting. for e_ample, a cd-rom disk named “encarta encyclopedia” contains 650 mb information including images, graphics, music clips, video clips, animations , te_ts, hotwords, and database search functions. fields involved includes physical
sciences, performance arts, social sciences, politics, military, education and so on. when pressing a button, i can hear american president clinton's speech clip. i may enjoy playing all kinds of musical instruments in the world. i can also see the animation of many physical phenomena. this makes physical concept to be understood deeply. the audio features of multimedia can greatly help me learning foreign languages. with its speech output capabilities, i'm no longer dependent on an instructor for proper pronunciation.
how can i interact with a computer? there are many ways, including keyboard, mouse pointer, and touch screen. i often use a keyboard. when i press right keys, i can see and hear whatever i want. information world is at my fingertip. i wish that true speech input-output system would be invented one day.
as teachers, computers have a lot of virtues： they are positive, they have good memories and never lose any information stored in them. they have much knowledge in every field. they can let out all kinds of sounds, and can also improve the efficiency of our study. for e_ample, if i want to, i can skip some chapters so that i can study at my own pace.
although computers will never take the place of human teachers, they are welcomed by more and more learners. computers will continue to evolve(发展)with the aid of modern technologies. computers are so powerful, helpful and important that everybody needs it, especially in the future! i love my computer teacher!
A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sathim down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "

哥哥的心愿圣诞节时，保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车。圣诞节当天，保罗离开办公室时，一个男孩绕着那辆闪闪发亮的新车，十分赞叹地问：
"先生，这是你的车?"
保罗点点头："这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。"男孩满脸惊讶，支支吾吾地说："你是说这是你哥送的礼物，没花你一分钱?天哪，我真希望也能……"
保罗当然知道男孩他真想希望什么。他希望能有一个象那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话却完全出乎了保罗的意料。
"我希望自己能成为送车给弟弟的哥哥。"男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩，冲口而出地说："你要不要坐我的车去兜风?"
"哦，当然好了，我太想坐了!"
车开了一小段路后，那孩子转过头来，眼睛闪闪发亮，对我说："先生，你能不能把车子开到我家门前?"
保罗微笑，他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀，让大家知道他坐了一部大轿车回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。"你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前?"男孩要求道。
男孩跑上了阶梯，过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了，但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来把他跛脚的弟弟带出来了，将他安置在第一个台阶上，紧紧地抱着他，指着那辆新车。
只听那男孩告诉弟弟："你看，这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是保罗他哥哥送给他的哦!将来我也会送给你一辆像这样的车，到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时，挂窗口上的漂亮饰品了，就象我告诉过你的那样。"
保罗走下车子，把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子，坐在弟弟的身旁。就这样他们三人开始一次令人难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜，保罗才真正体会主耶稣所说的"施比受更有福"的道理。
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen :
Life is not long, but many times choose, you have many choices come through today. Wait more than 60 days, you in turn to make a choice, but the choice is your life is very important, very crucial choice. The choice to a large extent directly related to your future direction in life, whether related to the future glory of life, and even the success of the big problems of life.
The last choice, because your young, largely by your parents or relatives to help you to make choices. Then the choice of their ability to help so you can create conditions to help you (for example, taking your difference, they can give you the money you read Choosing Health). Entrance options, but this largely depends on yourself decide the. Because: First, the difficulty of the selection bigger, some parents and relatives also lack guidance capability; second is the choice of policy, a more equitable, they may have money, but you also can not score enough money to help you. So many choices in this and future autonomy of the major is in your own hands.
Select certain subjective and objective conditions. The university entrance exam already created the objective conditions of choice. For example, the University has long been the face of the door here open for each student, you can enter with their conditions. Another example is that the state's admission policy is not directed against an individual, but against all the candidates this year, has been formed, you can only prepare the conditions required by policy to choose. Another example: you face the teachers and the teaching environment of objective factors in the last more than 60 days are basically constant. You can only adjust themselves to the further adaptation. Therefore, the objective conditions of your current studies, as if we can only face each generation has been formed as the productivity of conditions, can only be subjective on this basis up efforts to promote the development of the existing productive forces, not to complain about now have low productivity. This year's college entrance examination, you can only have been formed by the face of these subjective and objective conditions to efforts to improve their academic performance. Not to complain about the objective conditions than me.
In addition to other life choices, and many give up. But a lot of life to give up in order to better choices. You this time, the face of the university are beckoning to you, you can choose not to give up. Can also say: You give up a lot in the past, that is, to this choice. Example, Why did not you work outside the home? Why not stay at home farming? Why seeing your parents morning to evening, busy doing farming work, and even sick exertion in the field, and you share those concerns did not go home for their problem-solving, can you give up so they are not all for this time of choice?
Both gave up so much, they chose today, why not try to choose tomorrow? Beckon you do not choose to have this as another of the universities? There is the further purification of your soul, raise your quality, and increase your survivability, and improve your quality of life in the future to achieve greater value of life your furnac.
Thank you!
Opening Statement: Sexual Harrassment Hearings Concerning Judge Clarence ThomasMr.Chairman, Senator Thurmond, members of the committee, my name is Anita F.
Hill, and I am a professor of law at the University of Oklahoma.
I was born on a farm in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, in 1956.
I am the youngest of 13 children.
I had my early education in Okmulgee County.
My father, Albert Hill, is a farmer in that area.
My mothers name is Irma Hill.
She is also a farmer and a housewife.
My childhood was one of a lot of hard work and not much money, but it was one of solid family affection, as represented by my parents.
I was reared in a religious atmosphere in the Baptist faith, and I have been a member of the Antioch Baptist Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, since 1983.
It is a very warm part of my life at the present time.
For my undergraduate work, I went to Oklahoma State University and graduated from there in 1977.
I am attaching to this statement a copy of my resume for further details of my education.
I graduated from the university with academic honors and proceeded to the Yale Law School, where I received my JD degree in 1980.
Upon graduation from law school, I became a practicing lawyer with the Washington, DC, firm of Ward, Hardraker, and Ross.
In 1981, I was introduced to now Judge Thomas by a mutual friend.
Judge Thomas told me that he was anticipating a political appointment, and he asked if I would be interested in working with him.
He was, in fact, appointed as Assistant Secretary of Education for Civil Rights.
After he had taken that post, he asked if I would become his assistant, and I accepted that position.
In my early period there, I had two major projects.
The first was an article I wrote for Judge Thomas signature on the education of minority students.
The second was the organization of a seminar on high-risk students which was abandoned because Judge Thomas transferred to the EEOC where he became the chairman of that office.
During this period at the Department of Education, my working relationship with Judge Thomas was positive.
I had a good deal of responsibility and independence.
I thought he respected my work and that he trusted my judgment.
After approximately three months of working there, he asked me to go out socially with him.
What happened next and telling the world about it are the two most difficult things -- experiences of my life.
It is only after a great deal of agonizing consideration and sleepless number -- a great number of sleepless nights that I am able to talk of these unpleasant matters to anyone but my close friends.
I declined the invitation to go out socially with him and explained to him that I thought it would jeopardize what at the time I considered to be a very good working relationship.
I had a normal social life with other men outside of the office.
I believed then, as now, that having a social relationship with a person who was supervising my work would be ill-advised.
I was very uncomfortable with the idea and told him so.
I thought that by saying no and explaining my reasons my employer would abandon his social suggestions.
However, to my regret, in the following few weeks, he continued to ask me out on several occasions.
He pressed me to justify my reasons for saying no to him.
These incidents took place in his office or mine.
They were in the form of private conversations which would not have been overheard by anyone else.
My working relationship became even more strained when Judge Thomas began to use work situations to discuss sex.
On these occasions, he would call me into his office for reports on education issues and projects, or he might suggest that, because of the time pressures of his schedule, we go to lunch to a government cafeteria.
After a brief discussion of work, he would turn the conversation to a discussion of sexual matters.
His conversations were very vivid.
He spoke about acts that he had seen in pornographic films involving such matters as women having sex with animals and films showing group sex or rape scenes.
He talked about pornographic materials depicting individuals with large penises or large breasts involved in various sex acts.
On several occasions, Thomas told me graphically of his own sexual prowess.
Because I was extremely uncomfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, I told him that I did not want to talk about these subjects.
I would also try to change the subject to education matters or to nonsexual personal matters such as his background or his beliefs.
My efforts to change the subject were rarely successful.
Throughout the period of these conversations, he also from time to time asked me for social engagements.
My reaction to these conversations was to avoid them by eliminating opportunities for us to engage in extended conversations.
This was difficult because at the time I was his only assistant at the Office of Education -- or Office for Civil Rights.
During the latter part of my time at the Department of Education, the social pressures and any conversation of his offensive behavior ended.
I began both to believe and hope that our working relationship could be a proper, cordial, and professional one.
When Judge Thomas was made chair of the EEOC, I needed to face the question of whether to go with him.
I was asked to do so, and I did.
The work itself was interesting, and at that time it appeared that the sexual overtures which had so troubled me had ended.
I also faced the realistic fact that I had no alternative job.
While I might have gone back to private practice, perhaps in my old firm or at another, I was dedicated to civil rights work, and my first choice was to be in that field.
Moreover, the Department of Education itself was a dubious venture.
President Reagan was seeking to abolish the entire department.
For my first months at the EEOC, where I continued to be an assistant to Judge Thomas, there were no sexual conversations or overtures.
However, during the fall and winter of 1982, these began again.
The comments were random and ranged from pressing me about why I didnt go out with him to remarks about my personal appearance.
I remember his saying that some day I would have to tell him the real reason that I wouldnt go out with him.
He began to show displeasure in his tone and voice and his demeanor and his continued pressure for an explanation.
He commented on what I was wearing in terms of whether it made me more or less sexually attractive.
The incidents occurred in his inner office at the EEOC.
One of the oddest episodes I remember was an occasion in which Thomas was drinking a Coke in his office.
He got up from the table at which we were working, went over to his desk to get the Coke, looked at the can and asked, Who has pubic hair on my Coke? On other occasions, he referred to the size of his own penis as being larger than normal, and he also spoke on some occasions of the pleasures he had given to women with oral sex.
At this point, late 1982, I began to feel severe stress on the job.
I began to be concerned that Clarence Thomas might take out his anger with me by degrading me or not giving me important assignments.
I also thought that he might find an excuse for dismissing me.
In January of 1983, I began looking for another job.
I was handicapped because I feared that, if he found out, he might make it difficult for me to find other employment and I might be dismissed from the job I had.
Another factor that made my search more difficult was that there was a period -- this was during a period of a hiring freeze in the government.
In February of 1983, I was hospitalized for five days on an emergency basis for acute stomach pain which I attributed to stress on the job.
Once out of the hospital, I became more committed to find other employment and sought further to minimize my contact with Thomas.
This became easier when Allison Duncan (sp) became office director, because most of my work was then funneled through her and I had contact with Clarence Thomas mostly in staff meetings.
In the spring of 1983, an opportunity to teach at Oral Roberts University opened up.
I participated in a seminar -- taught an afternoon session and seminar at Oral Roberts University.
The dean of the university saw me teaching and inquired as to whether I would be interested in furthering -- pursuing a career in teaching, beginning at Oral Roberts University.
I agreed to take the job in large part because of my desire to escape the pressures I felt at the EEOC due to Judge Thomas.
When I informed him that I was leaving in July, I recall that his response was that now I would no longer have an excuse for not going out with him.
I told him that I still preferred not to do so.
At some time after that meeting, he asked if he could take me to dinner at the end of the term.
When I declined, he assured me that the dinner was a professional courtesy only and not a social invitation.
I reluctantly agreed to accept that invitation, but only if it was at the every end of a working day.
On, as I recall, the last day of my employment at the EEOC in the summer of 1983, I did have dinner with Clarence Thomas.
We went directly from work to a restaurant near the office.
We talked about the work I had done, both at education and at the EEOC.
He told me that he was pleased with all of it except for an article and speech that I had done for him while we were at the Office for Civil Rights.
Finally, he made a comment that I will vividly remember.
He said that if I ever told anyone of his behavior that it would ruin his career.
This was not an apology, nor was it an explanation.
That was his last remark about the possibility of our going out or reference to his behavior.
In July of 1983, I left Washington, DC area and have had minimal contact with Judge Clarence Thomas since.
I am of course aware from the press that some questions have been raised about conversations I had with Judge Clarence Thomas after I left the EEOC.
From 1983 until today, I have seen Judge Thomas only twice.
On one occasion, I needed to get a reference from him, and on another he made a public appearance in Tulsa.
On one occasion he called me at home and we had an inconsequential conversation.
On one occasion he called me without reaching me, and I returned the call without reaching him, and nothing came of it.
I have on at least three occasions, been asked to act as a conduit to him for others.
I knew his secretary, Diane Holt.
We had worked together at both EEOC and education.
There were occasions on which I spoke to her, and on some of these occasions undoubtedly I passed on some casual comment to then Chairman Thomas.
There were a series of calls in the first three months of 1985, occasioned by a group in Tulsa, which wished to have a civil rights conference.
They wanted Judge Thomas to be the speaker and enlisted my assistance for this purpose.
I did call in January and February to no effect, and finally suggested to the person directly involved, Susan Cahal (ph) that she put the matter into her own hands and call directly.
She did so in March of 1985.
In connection with that March invitation, Ms.
Cahal (ph) wanted conference materials for the seminar and some research was needed.
I was asked to try to get the information and did attempted to do so.
There was another call about another possible conference in July of 1985.
In August of 1987, I was in Washington, DC and I did call Diane Holt.
In the course of this conversation, she asked me how long I was going to be in town and I told her.
It is recorded in the message as August 15.
It was, in fact, August 20th.
She told me about Judge Thomass marriage and I did say congratulate him.
It is only after a great deal of agonizing consideration that I am able to talk of these unpleasant matters to anyone except my closest friends.
As Ive said before these last few days have been very trying and very hard for me and it hasnt just been the last few days this week.
It has actually been over a month now that I have been under the strain of this issue.
Telling the world is the most difficult experience of my life, but it is very close to having to live through the experience that occasion this meeting.
I may have used poor judgment early on in my relationship with this issue.
I was aware, however, that telling at any point in my career could adversely affect my future career.
And I did not want early on to burn all the bridges to the EEOC.
As I said, I may have used poor judgment.
Perhaps I should have taken angry or even militant steps, both when I was in the agency, or after I left it.
But I must confess to the world that the course that I took seemed the better as well as the easier approach.
I declined any comment to newspapers, but later when Senate staff asked me about these matters I felt I had a duty to report.
I have no personal vendetta against Clarence Thomas.
I seek only to provide the committee with information which it may regard as relevant.
It would have been more comfortable to remain silent.
I took no initiative to inform anyone.
But when I was asked by a representative of this committee to report my experience, I felt that I had to tell the truth.
I could not keep silent. Good morning:Honorable judges, dear teachers and close friends.
I’m very glad to stand here to share my speech with you.
Today I’m going to talk about Love and Take care of Nature.Mother Nature is an exquisite and complex life-system.
Its charm appears in the trees, stream, soil, insects, moss and fungus, all the things on the earth in different shapes, which are interdependent.
When you get close to nature, please remember, each tree, stone and species of animals here has lived harmoniously for hundreds, thousands or even millions of years.
When we pass away, they will continue to live.
They are the real masters, while we are just the passer-by.
However, the conduct we unconsciously do, such as picking, lumbering, tramping and abusing can probably destroy the balance of their life.
Therefore, we must reduce our bad influence as much as possible.
While you are enjoying the nature, do not forget please, the beauty of the lives also needs to be concerned with and to be protected.Each life on the earth has a long and touching evolutionary story.
From the origin, the lives of the human being are equal to those of others; they both are the composing parts of Mother Nature.
Nevertheless, for some inexplicable reasons, the human becomes the spirits of all creatures.
Of course, it is the result of the evolution, but still we should be grateful to all our companions in nature for the opportunity they offer.In spite of this, humans cannot live without earth.
They live on the earth, drink the sweet water, and enjoy the sunshine, the air, the sky, the fruit; the grains utilize the energy and so on.
In a word, the human being cannot live without nature, and Mother Nature makes us grow stronger.I do not like the word Pet, but preferring the word Animal instead.
I have been loving animal since I was just a little boy.
When thinking of the Pet Fashion, I always feel much annoyed.
For the animals will be given a shackle and lose their liberty if they become someones pets.
Their natural attribution can be deprived, too.Up to now, relying on their scientific power, the human have opened up too much and over developed nature, in order to fill up their growing appetites of wealth.
They destroy the balance of nature, however, they dont realize, their own development and existence will be threatened.
Therefore, our sights should be focused on nature and we should try to develop the concept of keeping human and nature in unity.We should lay emphasis on our education with consider cultural and natural emotion. Greetings,everybody.Its really great to be here.Id like to talk about my favorite TV channels.
I enjoy watching TV.Im not embarrassed to admit it.Not all programs are a big waste of time.
Some programs are educational and worthwhile.Some channels are relaxing and entertaining.Let me introduce my four favorites to you.
First,I love action movies.I thrive on the excitement.They make me feel so alive.

Action movies are a blast.Action movie a nice escape.I recommend the action movies on HBO.
Second,I really like comedy.I like humorous entertainment.It always cheers me up.
Laughter is so healthy.Its like food for the soul.Its like sunshine on a rainy day.
My comedy must have quality.It must be wholesome and good-natured.It can never be sexist or humiliating.
Third,I love adventure programs.Im nuts about traveling.The Travel Channel is a favorite.
I also love to explore.Im into science and innovation.The Discovery Channel always fascinates me.
Besides,Im crazy about animals.I respect the animal kingdom.I think Animal Planet is really cool.
Finally,I love watching the news.Im a news freak.Im a politics junky.
I cant get enough of politics.I analyze and compare many news shows.I seldom believe much of what I hear.
I know politics turns a lot of people off.It turns me on.Its my duty as a citizen to stay informed.
In conclusion,I enjoy the tube.Its really not so bad.Its not all useless junk.
Enjoy and beware.Enjoy quality programs.Beware of becoming a couch potato.
Thank you for listening.Thanks for your attention.I hope you always watch excellent TV programs.
I believe it is in my nature to dance by virtue of the beat of my heart,the pulse of my blood and the music in my mind. So I dance daily.
The seldom-used dining room of my house is now an often-used ballroom — anopen space with a hardwood floor, stereo, and a disco ball. The CD-changer hassix discs at the ready: waltz, swing, country, rock-and-roll, salsa, andtango.
Each morning when I walk through the house on the way to make coffee, Iturn on the music, hit the "shuffle" button, and it's Dance Time! I dance aloneto whatever is playing. It's a form of existential aerobics, a movingmeditation.
Tango is a recent enthusiasm. It's a complex and difficult dance, so I'm upto three lessons a week, three nights out dancing, and I'm off to Buenos Airesfor three months of immersion in tango culture.
The first time I went tango dancing I was too intimidated to get out on thefloor. I remembered another time I had stayed on the sidelines, when the dancingbegan after a village wedding on the Greek island of Crete. The fancy footworkconfused me. "Don't make a fool of yourself," I thought. "Just watch."
Reading my mind, an older woman dropped out of the dance, sat down besideme, and said, "If you join the dancing, you will feel foolish. If you do not,you will also feel foolish. So, why not dance?"
And, she said she had a secret for me. She whispered, "If you do not dance,we will know you are a fool. But if you dance, we will think well of you fortrying."
Recalling her wise words, I took up the challenge of tango.
A friend asked me if my tango-mania wasn't a little ambitious. "Tango? Atyour age? You must be out of your mind!"
On the contrary: It's a deeply pondered decision. My passion for tangodisguises a fearfulness. I fear the shrinking of life that goes with aging. Ifear the boredom that comes with not learning and not taking chances. I fear thedying that goes on inside you when you leave the game of life to wait in thefinal checkout line.
I seek the sharp, scary pleasure that comes from beginning something new —that calls on all my resources and challenges my mind, my body, and my spirit,all at once.
My goal now is to dance all the dances as long as I can, and then to sitdown contented after the last elegant tango some sweet night and pass on becausethere wasn't another dance left in me.
So, when people say, "Tango? At your age? Have lost your mind?" I answer,"No, and I don't intend to."

我相信，随着心跳、脉搏以及心中的音乐去跳舞是我的天性。所以我每天都跳。
我屋子里那个很少使用的餐厅，现在经常被用来作“舞厅”——一个铺着硬木地板、配有立体音响装置的迪厅。我的换片箱里备好了6张碟片：华尔兹、摇摆、乡村、摇滚、萨尔萨和探戈。
每天早上，在去煮咖啡的路上，我都把音乐打开，并摁下“随机”键。跳舞的时间到了!不管放的是什么曲子，我都会随着曲子独自起舞。这是一种关乎存在的增氧运动，一种动起来的沉思。
探戈最近很火爆。这是一种很复杂的比较难跳的舞，所以我一周要上三次课，花三个晚上出去跳舞，我还打算去布宜诺斯艾利斯待三个月，接受探戈文化的浸礼。
第一次去上探戈舞蹈课的时候，我非常害怕，都不敢到地板上去。我还记得，有一次，在希腊克里特岛上，一场乡村婚礼之后，舞会开始了，而我却一直待在旁边不敢跳。那高超的步法让我眼花缭乱。“别做傻事了，”我想，“就看看吧。”
一位年龄比我还大的女士看出了我的想法，她从舞场中退出来，坐在我旁边说，“如果加入这场舞会，你会觉得很傻。如果你不加入，你一样会觉得很傻。既然这样，干吗不跳?”
然后，她说她要告诉我一个秘密。她低声说道：“如果你不跳，我们就会知道你是个傻瓜。可是如果你跳了，我们就会因为你的尝试而觉得你很棒。”
听了这席话，我接受了探戈的挑战。
一个朋友问我，我对探戈的嗜好是不是有点儿太狂野了。“探戈?你这个年龄?你一定是精神不正常了!”
恰恰相反：这是我深思熟虑之后的决定。我对探戈的热情掩盖了一种害怕。我害怕生命随着年龄的增长而缩短。我害怕因为不再学习、不再冒险而产生的无聊。我害怕在退出生命之局而等着末日审判的过程中，你体内发生的死亡。
我追寻那种随着新事物而产生的，尖锐而略带惊吓的喜悦——这就要求我全身心投入，对我的心智、身体和勇气同时进行挑战。
我现在的目标就是：跳完所有我能跳的舞蹈，然后，在某个甜蜜的夜晚，跳完最后一支优雅的探戈后，满意地坐下来，离开世界——因为我体内没有一支没有跳过的舞了。
所以，当人们说，“探戈?你这个年龄?精神不正常吧?”我便回答：“没有啊，我可不想不正常。”
sherlock holmes and dr watson were going camping. they pitched their tent under the stars and went to sleep. sometime in the middle of the night holmes woke watson up and said: "watson, look up at the sky, and tell me what you see." watson replied: "i see millions and millions of stars." holmes said: "and what do you deduce from that?" watson replied: "well, if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, it’s quite likely there are some planets like earth out there. and if there are a few planets like earth out there, there might also be life." and holmes said: "watson, you idiot, it means that somebody stole our tent."
One would think that a person make out will be very cool, actually otherwise, when you are in a great deal of frustration, you will understand the importance of the partners, the value of cooperation.
Points, is separated. When you asked a friend dear John, have you ever thought about, how many friends you have. When you are lonely, have you ever thought how much you have true friends. True friends, when you are sad comfort you, and will encourage you when you lost, will help you, when you difficult will indicate the direction for you when you are lost, so, just a "friend". When parents sick in bed, but swept flatly, cut off the last hope of life, the parents this is not only the irreverent to life, also reflects the inner evil.
When you fail, have you ever thought that you need someone to comfort, points, representing the loneliness and fragile, left the group of geese fly is not far, only to return to his, can play to their ability.
Close, is cooperation. Cooperation is one of the magic weapon of the successful people. People has the inherent potential, this potential to succeed may be one person, but this potential only under special circumstances will burst into its own power. The human potential, the most powerful, the most easy to use, is cooperation. Successful cooperation can create infinite wealth, has the material wealth and spiritual wealth, and contribute to people's wealth.
A man without a friend, leave the inner goodness, cannot leave the cooperation, cannot leave the most is the human nature.
有人会认为一个人在外闯荡会很酷，其实不然，当你在遭受莫大的挫折后，你就会了解到伙伴的重要，合作的可贵。
分，就是分离。当你向朋友提出绝交的时候，你是否考虑过，自己到底还有多少朋友。当你孤独的时候，你是否想过你有多少真正的朋友。真正的朋友，会在你伤心的时候安慰你，会在你失落时鼓励你，会在你困难时帮助你，会在你迷惘的时候为你指明方向，如此，才可谓“益友”。当父母病重在床是，游子却断然离去，掐断了父母对生命最后的希冀，这不仅是对生命的大不敬，还反映了人内心的邪恶。
当你失败时，你可曾想过你需要一个人来安慰，分，代表着孤独与脆弱，离开了群体的大雁是飞不远的，只有回归雁群，才能发挥自己的能力。
合，便是合作。合作是人制胜的法宝之一。人有与生俱来的潜力，这种潜力能是一个人获得成功，但这种潜力只有在特殊情况下才会爆发出它自己的力量。而人的潜力中，最强大，最容易使用的，就是合作。成功的合作可以创造无穷的财富，有物质上的财富，有精神上的财富，还有贡献给人们的财富

chinese restaurants have played an important role in american history, as a matter of fact. the cuban missile crisis was resolved in a chinese restaurant called yenching palace in washington, d.c., which unfortunately is closed now, and about to be turned into walgreen's. and the house that john wilkes booth planned the assassination of abraham lincoln is actually also now a chinese restaurant called wok 'n roll, on h street in washington.
and if you think about it, a lot of the foods that you think of or we think of or americans think of as chinese food are barely recognizable to chinese, for example: beef with broccoli, egg rolls, general tso's chicken, fortune cookies, chop suey, the take-out boxes.
so, the interesting question is, how do you go from fortune cookies being something that is japanese to being something that is chinese? well, the short answer is, we locked up all the japanese during world war ii, including those that made fortune cookies, so that's the time when the chinese moved in, kind of saw a market opportunity and took over.
I have many hobbies. I like drawing and I can drawvery well,which get a lot of praisemy teachers and fris.
I likesports,such as dancing,skating,biking and playing badminton. I often play badmintonwith my sisters and we have a great fun together. I love music,especially thepop music,which makes me feel relax. I love English,too. I hope I can travelall over the world one day.
I have manyfris. I often study and play with Ke Jingqi and Zhu Si huai. Sometimes,wego to bookstore or supermarket together. We are so happy when we are together. Ilove my fris and they love me,too.
Thatsall!Thank you for your attention.
For interpersonal relationships, I gradually summed up one of the most in line with the principle of my nature, that is, mutual respect and affinity. I believe that all good friendship is formed naturally and not deliberately obtained. I also think that no matter how good of friends should have a distance, the friendship is too often crowded empty.
Get along with others, especially if you are relaxed, in a relaxed and feel of the real lessons learned, I bet you, you must have encountered the same, even if you are engaged in different occupations.
Philosophers, poets, musicians, artists have their own jargon. Sometimes, the different meaning of the same jargon said. Sometimes, speaking with a different meaning of jargon.
but can not climb the hills, the gap between the soul of it is insurmountable. Peer jargon we say, spit out the voice of a friend.
Among the most profound distinction is not professional, and in the soul.
Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends.When in trouble, we need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success achieved, we also need friends to share our joys.
Friendship is also one of the greatest pleasures that we can enjoy. It implies loyalty, cordiality, sympathy, affection,and readiness to help. No man can make the most of his life without carefully and conscientiously striving to win the right kind of friends as he goes along.
Knowing how valuable friendship is, we should be very careful in making friends. Real friends are those who have good character, superior ability and kindness of heart. Real friends can share all our sorrows and double all our joys.While making friends, we should take care to select those who have such fine qualities. Then we should treat our friends with courtesy, be careful not to interfere unreasonably with them,and not to ridicule their proceedings. We should forgive their failures and do our best to help them. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure it by means of words and deeds. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life.
I read the book "good family style in the new era", and I know a lot of stories about family style, family rules and family instructions. For example, Huang yezhen treats people with kindness, Pang Fuying inherits his family with filial piety, Zeng Zi kills pigs for honesty All of these have set a very good example for us, and the good name will be handed down forever.
Although I dont know what the family style is, my parents make me understand a lot with their actions.
Once, the Chinese teacher asked to buy a collection book to take notes in class. In the supermarket, my mother told me to buy a hard shell one, so its not easy to break it when I put it in the bag. I look around, I look around, my eyes flash, and I see a beautiful and exquisite book with a beautiful shell. I said happily to my mother, "I want this, mom?" Mother looked at the price and frowned and said, "this is so expensive. Please take this." I read my mothers notebook. Its so ugly. There are square squares everywhere. The color is either grey green or grey. Its ugly. "I dont want this. Its ugly." I am very unhappy to say. "We dont have to be good-looking when we buy books. We need to be practical. We need to save money." After listening to my mother, I bought this book reluctantly.
It turns out that my family style is thrifty. I hope that my family style can be passed down from generation to generation. Family style is a positive energy. We should be strict with ourselves all the time and carry forward the national spirit from each family.
today i will read a love letter . it's written to a boy .

今天，我将要念一封写给一位男生的情书。
有好多事想告诉你，不过不确定应该从哪里开始。也许你不记得我，不过没有关系。这些都是我想说的话，而且都是认真的，并且等着你在不经意间对我微笑。
你知道么，有个人时时想念你，惦念你?你含笑的眼睛，像星光闪闪，缀在我的`心幕，夜夜闪亮。
遇见你是命运的安排，而爱上你是我的情不自禁。你是我的一切，我是如此幸运，上帝让你来到我的身边。
没有杯子，咖啡是寂寞的，没有你，我是孤独的。没有你的日子，就像一本没有书页的书。我会想你，在漫漫长路的每一步。
你带我走出寂寞。如果我们只是遇见，不能停留，那么不如不见。爱情是生活的提神剂。我的心因你而笑。
我希望每个人都能理解这封情书，因为如果爱不疯狂，那就不是爱了。
最后，这封情书，我想送给在座的一位男生，告诉他，我喜欢他。
谢谢。
A good teacher-student relationship will make learning enjoyable and interesting for the students and teaching worthwhile for a set up a good teacher-student relationship , a teccher’s behaviour is especially important teacher should motivate the students so that they would like to learn . a good teacher should be patient , frily and strict. remember not to encourage students by pushing or punishing them g too frily may cause students to become lazy and stop working hard. on the other hand , being too strict may frighten students. so a teacher should aviod going to extremes in treating his or her students the demand for the teachers who should take resposibilities for his or her job should encourage students to think indepently and learn to study by themselves and also make his lessons lively and interesting. however, as for the students , they should always show respect for their teachers and their work ents should be eager to learn and willing to put their heart into their study. it’s significant for students to listen to their teccher attentively in class and it’s more important to learn to come up to questions and work out problems in new ways.
in conclusion , a good teacher-student relationship can be mutually beneficial students gain knowledge eagerly and enjoyably and the teacher gains satisfaction his or her job.
thank you .
Boys and girls,
May I have your attention,please?I have something to tell you on this subject.
Nowadays,many students go to surf the internet.Well,is it good or bad?I think there are advantages and disadvantages.
On one hand,we'll benefit from it.First,we can learn how to use the modern equipment-the computer.It can help us do many things efficiently.Computers can also offer you much information.Therefore,we can learn more knowledge.What's more,it can make us brighter.
On the other hand,it has some disadvantages.Some students are so addicted to it that they forget everything else.Others make friends on the internet,so they write to each other too often.Thus,they get on worse and worse with their studies.
In my opinion,we can surf the internet for a certain length of time in our winter and summer holidays.However,when in school,we should try our best not to go to the internet.
That's all.Thank you.
hello, everyone .today i want to introduce one of my favourite novels. first let’s enjoy a video about it.
yes, this is the novel i’d like to introduce--.it is written by alice sebold, an american author. and in last year it was adapted（改编） into a movie by peter jackson, who is famous for his magic products—lord of rings. the movie is also very good.
after seeing the video, you may think this novel is frightening. i want to say ‘no, it’s not a horror fiction’. the novel tells about the thoughts of a murdered girl called susie after she was dead. she cannot forget her families and her lover .she stays in her own perfect world, watching their life. however, if the dead don’t forget the alive or don’t leave them for the heaven, people who are alive will not forget the sadness and cannot be cured by time.
somebody may think it’s a story about justice. but i want to say :’ no.’ at the end of the story , susie was able to come back to stay a few minutes with her boy .the last thing she want is only a kiss. she didn’t care about the punishment of the murder and just wish people all a long and happy life. that is what the novel wants to told us: love is always more important than hate. and ‘a family ,is like the bones all over one’s body .even though one piece breaks down and the others may feel sorry about it for some time , the dead are gone and the life is to be continued .
if one day u die,
if u are in in-between,
if u are in such a edge（边缘）of love and hate, hope and despair（绝望）.
what is your choice?
in a word, this is a moving novel that tells us the meaning of love and death. i believe when you read it, it can touch the softest corner of your heart.
that’s all, thank you.
hello everyone!
High school will study with you. I feel very excited. Everyone will like to make friends with me after listening to my self introduction.
My name is . I'm a 17-year-old girl.
I'm also embarrassed to introduce myself to you at the beginning of school. Because I don't know myself very well.
Life can be divided into seven stages, childhood, adolescence, youth, adulthood, middle age and old age. We are young and it is time to shape our life values and goals. The main determinants of who we will be in the future will happen in the next three years of high school, so I am looking forward to the future high school life.
I like to recall my youth and the countless happiness my youth brings to me; And I am more longing to become an adult as soon as possible, because when I grow up, I can do what I like and no longer be restrained and constrained by others.
thank you.

ladies and gentlemen,
for lives in schoolyards, i think:that's the studying place we're most familiar with。some people say:studying is the very and most boring thing，and i have even include the life in school。but i think studying is a very joyous thing，life in school is very interesting，it forms a picture of life，made my road of life be filled with happiness and enrichment。my life in school is like a slowly flowing stream，it flows happily，with occasions of small waves。lift your head up, it's spring，bow your head down, it's fall，the full moon as a picture，the crescent as a poem。my life in school lived in the silence of time.
it's morning，with the cool winds accompanying me，small groups of students arrived at class。in the morning reading class，everyone opened up their books，together they read the textbook entries aloud，sometimes their would be some students that does not read aloud，but under the teachers governance，everyone all read aloud，it became a unmissable schoolyard orchestra in the schoolyard。a bran new day at school just begun。 every-time we saw the teacher's professional figure，our hearts would go with the teacher into the sea of knowledge，to feel the
traditions of other countries，to feel the fresh sunshine in another world、the feel the world's brightness。
breaks are relaxing，in the hallways，some students are talking，some students are looking at the sceneries，relaxing their weary minds。in the classrooms，some students are reading story books，some students are doing homework，and some students are making preparation for next class
the favorite class of students would be physical education。in physical education，they can run freely，enjoying the sun's shines，making themselves sweaty。see，the students are playing basketball over on that field，they are playing badminton，and they are playing ping-pong in the court on the east side of the area......
near dawn，students all anxious to get home with their textbooks，they talk and laugh，feeling happy for another joyful day。
my life in school is very sweet。because in there there are familiar faces;sweet laughters;sentences wishing me good luck。in our days of succession，we scream for joy，we share the goodness of succession;make music using notes that touch our hearts。in our days of failure，we courage each other on，work together。at the same time，i want to thank my teachers，“the
end of the sky and earth can be broken，but only the heart for the teacher cannot be forgotten。”every time that i was down，sad because of the failed test，my teacher would be like a bright light guiding my lost soul，teaching me、allowing me to be a strong man，because succession only belongs to the leaders of life。
life in the schoolyard is very tensing, busy, and hard-working, but it's also very sweetening, joyous, and colorful. i love my life in this school.

Today, I have a speech for everyone, "I grew up with books." Book, allowing you more intelligent; books, textbooks can not tell you things. After reading a book, like a piece of mining wealth. As you book the most loyal friends, but also a one of your other textbooks, books, can tell you that learning, knowledge, life insights, the book that lets you knowledgeable.
What kind of books to choose, often vary from person to person. We can according to their own interests and hobbies, choose suitable reading materials. Of course, a person's interests and hobbies can be adopted to develop the study.
Book back to me a lot of inspiration. I "on its own success" in the know to step up a second time, when to have a normal heart; I am from the "little story of great wisdom" to know a lot of celebrities in the growth of experience and growth allow people to feel admiration for the story.
Book is your friend, your family. As long as you are willing to find that is willing to explore. You must be from the book of Revelation that many textbooks have not learned so much knowledge! Let us work together in the book world book of knowledge as small fish, like sea travel it together!
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 frront 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。”
有人说“我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节，页数无限的”。我不知道谁写的这些话，但我一直很喜欢他们提醒人们，可以是任何我们想要的未来。我们都是农民的地位。我们若种下好种子，我们收获丰收。如果我们工厂什么都没有，我们什么也没收获。
我们年轻的时候。“如何度过青春？“这是一个有意义的问题。要回答这个问题，首先我要问“你怎么理解这个词的青年吗？“青春不是生命的一个阶段，它是一种心态。它不是红润的面颊，红色的嘴唇和柔软的膝盖。它的问题。它是生命的深泉的清新。
一个诗人说：“从一粒沙子看到一个世界，从一朵野花看到一个天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒也就消融于一个时辰。几天前，我有机会听一个讲座。我学到了很多。我想与大家分享。让我们展示我们的右手掌。我们可以看到三个
行，展示我们的爱。职业和生活。我有一个短线的生活。你的呢？我想知道是否我们可以看到我们的未来。好吧，让我们做一个拳头。我们的未来在哪里？哪里是我们的爱，事业和生活？告诉我。是的，它是在我们的手中。这是在自己举行。
我们都希望未来会比过去更好。但是未来可以更好的自己。不要因为完结而哭，要为曾经发生而微笑。从过去，我们知道，生活是艰苦的，但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择我们的感觉，但我们可以选择。失败并不意味着你不拥有它，它意味着你应该换一种方式。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，它意味着你须更加努力。
就像我一开始说，“我们正在读一本书的第一章的第一节，页数无限的”。过去的已经过去了。我们所做的任何事都不会改变它。但是未来是在我们面前。相信我们给世界，世界将给我们。从今天开始，我们是自己的主人，说出“我们是世界，我们是未来。”
Alibaba Group founder Ma Yun said: "if you do not take action, don't give your dreams a chance to practice, you will never have a chance." Friends, light innovation passion and dreams, just to let you see the door to success, only you have the courage to pay hard, for the dream of unremitting efforts, it can be stepped into the threshold of success. Ma Yun's success is a good illustration of this point. In 1995, Ma decided to resign from the university teaching work, the formation of the Internet Chinese. At that time, the Internet for the United States and other developed countries is just beginning, even even bill gates are opposed to the Internet, in China, not to mention the, the vast majority of people don't know what it is. So, when he called twenty-four friends to vote on the matter, there are twenty-three people opposed that the Internet simply can not achieve this thing. He finds the Internet will change the human life, believe that their ideal will be realized, resolutely embarked on the path of entrepreneurship. But no money, no difficulties as can be imagined, even human, he was mocked as a liar.
I believe many friends present here today have seen the program "Yu Dan Zhuangzi experience", which has a story that I am inspired by, say, Keiko ah, one day to see Zhuang Zi, saying my house has a large gourd, there are five stone. If you put it into two halves, when to scoop water, the gourd skin is too thin, it is broken up in one fell swoop. It doesn't have anything to do with it. It's a big thing. Chuang-tzu said to him, how do you think it must split when the scoop? If it is a complete big gourd, why don't you put it on his waist line, as swimming ring with it? You can go swimming in the river, with a large gourd free to drift this! A story inspires us, in real life, the state determines the judgment of things, it can completely change the fate of a person, we should stand in a large state, know how to change an angle to think, think about whether we can change the way the way of getting along with people, think about whether our method of work can be improved. We think the skills would further improve. Friends, a person to be successful, first of all to have a sense of innovation, as long as you have the dream of innovation and passion, the success of the door is always open for you, life will be more wonderful!
The Asian Wall Street Journal Editor in chief, has described Ma entrepreneurs in their early work environment, "day and night work, to have a sleeping bag, who tired drill into sleep for a while." However, advocating martial spirit of Ma with extraordinary courage and perseverance, with his sword through the clutter and opened a through the broad road to the top of the success and ultimately swordsman, become a "peerless master", and describe the business of a myth! Everyone want to make your life more exciting, often troubled and confused, but as long as have the passion and dreams, persistent innovation, a door for you open - that is, the door to success!
Finally gave everyone a poetic couplet: innovation, career, do not cause; innovation, defeat, also defeated the unbeaten. Hengpi: innovation decides success or failure!
Spring, I never had strong feeling to spring before last year. Some peoplesaid spring should be a happy season. But I never sensed that. I always likedthe autumn because I thought autumn was a romantic season. I liked summer when Iwas very young for I loved my skirt with lace.Now, I still like autumn andsummer,while I like spring and winter. Before I disliked the various colors ofthe flowers,and I thought they are flighty and superficial. I thought only onlythe blue ocean is deep, the golden autumn is elegant. However, now I have adifferent idea that I find spring wonderful. I like the blossom in the field andin the moutain. From them I am spirited with life.
春天,我没有强烈的感觉,去年春天。有人说春天应该是一个快乐的季节。但我从来没意识到。我喜欢秋天,因为我认为秋天是一个浪漫的季节。我喜欢夏天的时候我很年轻,我喜欢我的裙子镶上花边。现在,我仍然喜欢秋天和夏天,而我喜欢春天和冬天。之前我不喜欢各种颜色的花,我想他们是轻浮的,肤浅的。我只认为只有蓝色的海洋深处,金色的秋天是优雅。但是,现在我有不同的想法,我觉得春天的美妙。我喜欢在山顶的字段和开花。从我的生活。
