《简短的ted演讲稿【优秀6篇】》
经典TED英语演讲稿 篇1
我选择在网络声中被倒下就在网络声中爬起来,当你被骂得小有名气的时候我就暗自思量,反正也是挨骂,不如用最积极的方式迎接骂声。2016年3月3日,我在微博上面发出了一条名为"爱的骂骂"的微博,只要在我这条微博下面留言的,,不管是鼓励我的,骂我的,还是随便说说的,我都捐五毛,24个小时,有十万多条留言,捐款金额是50693.5元,作为北京一家残疾孤儿康复机构的手术费,在这里我要对每一位留言的人表示感谢。
在现实生活中顽强活着的残疾孤儿,其中有一个孩子在手术后的一年,终于有机会可以站起来了,当我看到她第一次站起,我很感动,也很骄傲,这个"黑姑娘"干了一件痛快的事。是的,我说出了金额,我知道一定会有人说,"捐那么少还好意思报数"我相信现在大部分人都不愿意公布捐款金额,因为捐款已经不再是一件随心的行为,而是成为大家根据金额的多少来衡量爱心的大小。
我相信在座的的各位,也一定有过朋友之间随份子,该给多少才合适的烦恼,我之所以说出来,不仅仅是因为,我觉得随心的行为需要躲闪,更因为"爱的骂骂"是每一个留言的镜子。当时骂过我的人,也许在两年后的今天听到我说这番话,会想起曾经不太善意的留言,却给了这些孩子们有机会获得新生,这同样值得高兴,其实我们每个人都有不同阶段的新生,不是吗?"爱的骂骂"发出那一刻,我如重生般释然了,虽然,我不像很多演员那样,拥有令人赞叹的表演才华,自己也觉得不是天生吃这碗饭的,但是既然选择了演员这份职业,我相信只要通过自己的努力和善待他人,就可以让自己的家人和自己过上幸福美满的生活,然而这一切,在2016年的夏天,被一句开创演艺界网络暴力先河的"滚出娱乐圈"所动摇,我是第一个被放在主语位置的人,袁姗姗,这个名字好像从此和"一无是处"划上了等号,那个时候不管说什么、做什么、演什么都不对。更有媒体总结了"袁姗姗不被观众所喜欢的五大理由"第一条理由是"没有理由"这是得有多深厚的感情基础,才能达到的境界。
2016年确实挺让人操心的,从春天到夏天,都没有平静过,一开始我也有些懊恼,不知道到底发生了什么,我既没有不劳而获,也没有做伤天害理的事,为什么让我"滚"?没多久,我想明白一个道理,谁都可以说我不好,但是自己必须接纳那个心安理得的自己,既然我的演艺生涯要从倒数开始,那我之后的每一点进步都是充满喜悦,从零分到六十分比从满分到六十分,哪个更让人开心呢?
也是从那个时候,我重拾扔下了多年的小提琴,还有健身,运动让我心情愉快,不工作的时候练琴和健身会让我的每一天都过得很充实,根本没有过多的时间停留在网上,更顾不上网友的围观。
我建议那些沉迷于网络的年轻人,每天可以挤出一点时间锻炼身体,当有朝一日被他人欺负的时候,至少可以像我一样,身轻如燕,自由翻滚,作为过去也许将来还会遭遇网络暴力的过来人,我不喜欢再有人因为网络暴力而受到伤害,请善用语言让人言可敬。
特别感谢在那段特殊时间陪伴,我的家人和朋友,感谢他们承受住了一个当时还没有来得及减肥,各方面份量都很重的我,经历了这些,并不是想说明自己有多强大,但确实因为这些切身经历让我有了足够的时间去思考,我曾经问过自己一个问题,如果我当时真的不堪重负放弃了演员这个职业,是否网络暴力就会消失,答案当然不会,既然还是要面对,就应该积极地面对。
前不久,我参与了一部公益电影的拍摄,电影传递了一个非常积极的理念:每个人都有自由选择的机会和权利,无论你生下来是幸福的还是不幸的,我非常赞同,所以我选择做一个积极快乐的自己,不再受控于网络暴力中,不再只能看到消极的一面,都说做公益是在帮助他人,在我身上成全了一个更加快乐的自己,电影的名字叫《有一天》我想在这里特别推荐一下,虽然我只参演了电影的一部分,但也给我带来很多启发和感动,这部电影关注了九类特殊儿童群体,我参与拍摄的故事和聋哑儿童有关,跟我一起搭档演出的也是一名聋哑儿童,拍摄之前,我还有些顾虑,我不知道该怎么去跟他交流,我担心因为自己不小心的举动伤害到他,但是见面之后,我才发现成年人的世界真的是,因为想太多而变得复杂,只要我们保持一颗平常的心,用平等的方式去交流,就不会存在特别的障碍,重要的是你怎么看,而不是他怎么想,拍摄的那几天,我平静而快乐,每当完成一个镜头,这个小少年都会跟我竖起大拇指示意,他这个小小的举动也提醒了我和我们,有人选择赞美,有人则不!
感谢"爱的骂骂"感谢《有一天》感谢喝倒彩时刻提醒我的人,感谢一直鼓励我的家人和朋友,我希望能有更多的人
可以像我一样,主动地从逆境中走出来,这个世界还有很多需要我们关心的事去做,需要我们关心的人去爱,保持自己的真实,倔强地活下去。
I choose in network sound by the fall on the climb up the network sound, when you get it a little famous I thought, it is better to meet with scolded, condemning the most positive way. In March 3, 2016, I issued a "love mama" micro-blog on micro-blog, as long as in my micro-blog comments below, and whether it is encouraging me, scold me, or casual, I donated 50 Fen, 24 hours, more than 100 thousand message, the donation amount is 50693.5 yuan, as a Beijing disabled orphans surgery rehabilitation institutions, here I want to every message thank you.
In real life, live strong disabled orphans, one child in a year after operation, finally have the opportunity to stand up, when I saw her for the first time to stand up, I was very moved, very proud of this "black girl" did a good thing. Yes, I say the amount I know some people will say, "donate so little Weasley off" I believe now that most people are not willing to publish the donation amount, because the donation is no longer a heart of behavior, but we become according to the amount to measure how much the size of love.
I believe all of you, there must have been friends with the elements, how much is appropriate trouble, I say, not just because I feel heart behavior need to dodge, but also because "love mama is a mirror of the message. When scolded me, maybe two years later to hear me say these words, will remember not too good message, gave the children a chance, this is happy, in fact, we each have a different stage of the new, not love mama? From that moment, I like reborn as relieved, though, I like a lot of actors that have admirable acting talent, feel not born to eat a bowl of rice, but since the choice of the actors of this occupation, I believe that through their own efforts and be kind to others, you can make your own family. And they live a happy life, but all of this, in the summer of 2016, was a pioneering shake showbiz network violence first get out of entertainment, I was the first one to be placed in the subject position of people, Yuan Shanshan, this name seems to be from "Nothing is right." sign, at that time no matter what to say, what to do, what's wrong. More media summed up the Yuan Shanshan is not the audience like the five reasons, the first reason is that there is no reason, this is a more profound emotional foundation, in order to achieve the realm.
2016 is really a worry, from spring to summer, are not calm, I also started a little vexed, don't know what happened, I have neither something for nothing, nor do wicked things, why let me roll? Not long, I want to understand a truth, who can say I'm not good, but he must accept that comfort myself, since my career is going to start from the bottom, every bit of progress that I later are full of joy, from zero to sixty from out to sixty points, which make people happy?
From that time, I regain dropped years of violin, and fitness, exercise makes me feel good, and practicing fitness will let me every day to the fullest when not working, there is not too much time on the Internet, no more friends in the crowd.
I suggest young people who are addicted to the Internet, every day can squeeze a little time to exercise, when some day in the future is bullied, at least you can like me, shenqingruyan, free rolling, as past, perhaps the future will encounter the network violence over, I don't love hurt because the network violence again, please use let the other person worthy of language.
Special thanks to the company at that period of time, my family and friends, thank them to withstand a time yet to lose weight, the weight is very heavy for me, these experiences, and not to show how powerful you are, but because these experiences let me have enough time to think and I asked you a question, if I was really overwhelmed abandoned actor in this occupation, whether the network violence will disappear, of course not, since still have to face, should actively face.
Not long ago, I participated in a charity film, the film has a very positive philosophy: everyone has the freedom to choose the right and opportunity, whether it is happy or not you born, I agree very much, so I choose to be a positive and happy self, no longer controlled by the network of violence, not only see the negative side, say to do charity is to help other people, in my body into a more happy, the name of the movie called "one day" here I would like to recommend a special, although I only made a part of the film, but also to I brought a lot of inspiration and moved, the film focused on nine classes of special groups of children, I participated in the filming of the story and deaf children, together with my partner before the show is also a deaf children, shooting, I still have some Worry, I do not know how to communicate with him, I am worried because you accidentally move to hurt him, but after the meeting, I found that the adult world is really too much, because I want to become more complex, as long as we keep a normal heart, with equal way to communicate, do not there are particular obstacles, it is important how you see, rather than what he thinks, that a few days of shooting, I am calm and happy, whenever a lens, the boy will tell me the thumbs up sign, he this small action also remind me and us, some people choose to have praise. People are not!
Thank you love mama for "one day" to remind me of the boos, thank you always encourage my family and friends, I hope to have more people
Can be like me, take the initiative to come out from the face of adversity, the world there are many things we need to do to do, we need to care about people ≮≯to love, to maintain their true, stubborn to live.
经典TED英语演讲稿 篇2
When people find out I write about time management, they assume two things. One is that I'm always on time, and I'm not. I have four small children, and I would like to blame them for my occasional tardiness, but sometimes it's just not their fault. I was once late to my own speech on time management.
当人们发现我写关于时间管理的文章时,他们都会假设两件事:第一,我永远都准时,但我并不是。我有四个小孩,我偶尔将迟到归咎于他们,不过有时候真的不是因为他们。我有一次在去我的一个关于时间管理的演讲时迟到了。
We all had to just take a moment together and savor that irony.
我们都需要一点时间去好好地体味一下这有多么讽刺。
The second thing they assume is that I have lots of tips and tricks for saving bits of time here and there.Sometimes I'll hear from magazines that are doing a story along these lines, generally on how to help their readers find an extra hour in the day. And the idea is that we'll shave bits of time off everyday activities, add it up, and we'll have time for the good stuff.
第二,人们总是假设我有很多关于如何节省时间的贴士和技巧。有时候我听说一些杂志 在写这方面的故事,通常都是关于教读者如何在一天中获得额外一个小时。基本思路就是从日常的每个活动中挤出一点时间,加起来,然后我们就有时间去做更有意思的事情了。
I question the entire premise of this piece, but I'm always interested in hearing what they've come up with before they call me. Some of my favorites:doing errands where you only have to make right-hand turns.
我对这个说法持保留意见,不过我还是愿意听听他们在找我之前有什么想法。我最喜欢的几个是:只完成那些只需要右转的事;
Being extremely judicious in microwave usage: it says three to three-and-a-half minutes on the package, we're totally getting in on the bottom side of that. And my personal favorite, which makes sense on some level, is to DVR your favorite shows so you can fast-forward through the commercials.
在用微波炉时,要极度审慎:当食物包装上面写了3到3.5分钟时,我们要挑时间最短的那个。我个人最喜欢的是,录下你最喜欢看的电视剧,然后你就可以跳过广告了。其实在某个程度上,还是挺有道理的。
That way, you save eight minutes every half hour, so in the course of two hours of watching TV, you find 32 minutes to exercise.
这样,你每半个小时就可以挤出八分钟。那么你葱用来看电视的两个小时中,可以挤出32分钟锻炼的时间。
Which is true. You know another way to find 32 minutes to exercise? Don't watch two hours of TV a day, right?
倒的确是这么回事儿。你还知道其他可以找到32分钟锻炼时间的方法吗?不要每天都看两个小时电视就行了,对吧? (笑声)
Anyway, the idea is we'll save bits of time here and there, add it up, we will finally get to everything we want to do. But after studying how successful people spend their time and looking at their schedules hour by hour, I think this idea has it completely backward.
总之,就是要在各处都省点时间,加起来就有时间做我们想做的事了。但在我了解成功的人如何分配时间,并看过了他们的时间表后,我觉得这个想法是完全本末倒置的。
We don't build the lives we want by saving time. We build the lives we want, and then time saves itself.
我们不是通过节省时间来打造我们想过的生活。我们应该先建立我们想要的生活,时间就会自然而然节省出来。
Here's what I mean. I recently did a time diary project looking at 1,001 days in the lives of extremely busy women. They had demanding jobs, sometimes their own businesses, kids to care for, maybe parents to care for, community commitments -- busy, busy people.
我来解释一下。我最近有个时间日记项目,观察最忙碌的女士生命中的1001天。她们工作繁忙,有时候是自己的生意,有时候要照顾自己的孩子,或者是照顾父母,还有服务社区等等——都是一些很忙的人。
I had them keep track of their time for a week so I could add up how much they worked and slept, and I interviewed them about their strategies, for my book.
我让她们记录了一星期的行程,计算她们工作和睡觉的时间,为了我的书,我还采访 了解了她们的常用策略。
One of the women whose time log I studied goes out on a Wednesday night for something. She comes home to find that her water heater has broken, and there is now water all over her basement. If you've ever had anything like this happen to you, you know it is a hugely damaging, frightening, sopping mess.
其中一个被我研究过时间表的女士,在一个周三晚上出去了一趟,回家发现她的热水器坏了,地下室都被水淹了。如果你也遇到过这种事儿的话,你会知道眼前的景象多么令人崩溃和沮丧。
So she's dealing with the immediate aftermath that night, next day she's got plumbers coming in, day after that, professional cleaning crew dealing with the ruined carpet. All this is being recorded on her time log. Winds up taking seven hours of her week. Seven hours. That's like finding an extra hour in the day.
于是那个晚上她立刻着手处理,第二天她找了一个水管工,第三天找了专业的清理人员 来处理损坏的地毯。所有这些都算在了她的时间表内。总共花了她一周中的七个小时。七个小时。这就等于一周七天每天都要挤出一个小时。
But I'm sure if you had asked her at the start of the week, "Could you find seven hours to train for a triathlon?" "Could you find seven hours to mentor seven worthy people?" I'm sure she would've said what most of us would've said, which is, "No -- can't you see how busy I am?" Yet when she had to find seven hours because there is water all over her basement, she found seven hours.
但是假如你在这一周刚开始时就问她,“你能在这周抽出七个小时来参加铁人三项吗?”,“你能在这周抽出七个小时指导七个有潜力的人吗?“ 我确定她会像大多数人一样, 说,”怎么可能,你看不出我有多忙吗?“ 但是她最后不得不抽出七个小时,因为她的地下室都被水淹了, 她挤出了这七个小时。
And what this shows us is that time is highly elastic. We cannot make more time, but time will stretch to accommodate what we choose to put into it.
这件事告诉我们:时间是有弹性的。我们不能创造更多时间,但是时间会自己调整去适应我们选择去做的事情。
And so the key to time management is treating our priorities as the equivalent of that broken water heater. To get at this, I like to use language from one of the busiest people I ever interviewed. By busy, I mean she was running a small business with 12 people on the payroll, she had six children in her spare time.
所以时间管理的关键,就是对待最重要的事情应该像对待那个坏了的热水器一样。要做到这一点,我要借用我采访过最忙的人的话。她经营着一个小企业,请了十二名员工,空余时间她还要照顾六个孩子。
I was getting in touch with her to set up an interview on how she "had it all" -- that phrase. I remember it was a Thursday morning, and she was not available to speak with me. Of course, right?
我联系上了她,想要采访她关于她是怎么做到“无所不能”的。我记得那是一个星期四的早晨,她没时间和我说话。当然了,她很忙。
But the reason she was unavailable to speak with me is that she was out for a hike, because it was a beautiful spring morning, and she wanted to go for a hike. So of course this makes me even more intrigued, and when I finally do catch up with her, she explains it like this. She says, "Listen Laura, everything I do, every minute I spend, is my choice."
但是她没时间和我说话的原因是,她去远足了。因为那是春季一个美丽的清晨,所以她去远足了。这样的她让我变得更感兴趣了,当我最终联系上她时,她说:“听我说,劳拉,我做的所有的事情,我花的每分每秒,都是我的选择。
And rather than say, "I don't have time to do x, y or z," she'd say, "I don't do x, y or z because it's not a priority." "I don't have time," often means "It's not a priority."
”所以与其说, ”我没有时间做这个,这个,或者那个。” 她会说:”我不做这些事情因为这些不是我的首要任务。““我没有时间”的意思通常是 ”那不是我的首要任务”。
If you think about it, that's really more accurate language. I could tell you I don't have time to dust my blinds, but that's not true. If you offered to pay me $100,000 to dust my blinds, I would get to it pretty quickly.
其实你想想, 那的确是更准确的说法。我可能会告诉你我没有时间清理百叶窗,但那不是真的。假如你愿意付我10万美金让我给百叶窗除尘,我会马上就去做。 (笑声)
Since that is not going to happen, I can acknowledge this is not a matter of lacking time; it's that I don't want to do it. Using this language reminds us that time is a choice. And granted, there may be horrible consequences for making different choices, I will give you that.
既然那不可能发生,我可以说不是因为时间不够,而是我不想做。这么说提醒了我们, 时间是一种选择。我会告诉你,当然,不同的选择有时候会带来可怕的后果。
But we are smart people, and certainly over the long run, we have the power to fill our lives with the things that deserve to be there.
但是我们都是聪明人,从长远来看,我们有能力去选择一些值得做的事,来填补我们生命中的时间。那么我们应该怎么做呢?
So how do we do that? How do we treat our priorities as the equivalent of that broken water heater?
我们要如何像对待那个坏了的热水器一样对待我们的首要任务?首先,我们需要找出哪些事最重要。
Well, first we need to figure out what they are. I want to give you two strategies for thinking about this.The first, on the professional side: I'm sure many people coming up to the end of the year are giving or getting annual performance reviews. You look back over your successes over the year, your "opportunities for growth." And this serves its purpose, but I find it's more effective to do this looking forward.
我想给你们分享两个技巧。第一个,从职业的角度来说:我相信许多人在年底的时候,会发出或者收到年度绩效审查。你回头看看这一年的成功和 “成长的机会”。这的确起到了它的作用,但是我发现往前看会更有效。
So I want you to pretend it's the end of next year. You're giving yourself a performance review,and it has been an absolutely amazing year for you professionally. What three to five things did you do that made it so amazing? So you can write next year's performance review now.
我想让你们把这当做下一年的年底。你在给自己做年度绩效审查,在专业方面,这一年的表现非常出众。是哪三到五件事使这一年变得如此出众?你现在就可以写明年的绩效审查。
And you can do this for your personal life, too. I'm sure many of you, like me, come December, get cards that contain these folded up sheets of colored paper, on which is written what is known as the family holiday letter.
你也可以在个人生活方面这么做。我相信你们许多人,包括我,在十二月,都会收到这种夹着彩色纸的卡片。上面写着“家庭假日信件”。
Bit of a wretched genre of literature, really, going on about how amazing everyone in the household is,or even more scintillating, how busy everyone in the household is. But these letters serve a purpose,which is that they tell your friends and family what you did in your personal life that mattered to you over the year.
听起来像是一个挺悲惨的文学题材,谈论家里每个人有多了不起,或者更精彩点,家里每个人有多忙。但是这些信有它们的用处,它们告诉你的朋友和家人你这一年里做了什么对个人生活有意义的事。
So this year's kind of done, but I want you to pretend it's the end of next year, and it has been an absolutely amazing year for you and the people you care about. What three to five things did you do that made it so amazing? So you can write next year's family holiday letter now. Don't send it.
那么今年快要结束了,我想让你假装这是明年的年底,对你和你在乎的人来说,这都是无与伦比的一年。哪三到五件事让你这一年表现如此出色?其实你现在就可以写明年的家庭假日信件了。先不要发出去。
Please, don't send it. But you can write it. And now, between the performance review and the family holiday letter, we have a list of six to ten goals we can work on in the next year.
真的,不要发出去。但是你可以写。现在,有了绩效评估和写给家人的信,我们就有了六到十个明年可以努力的目标。我们需要先把他们分成可行的阶段性任务。
And now we need to break these down into doable steps. So maybe you want to write a family history.First, you can read some other family histories, get a sense for the style. Then maybe think about the questions you want to ask your relatives, set up appointments to interview them. Or maybe you want to run a 5K. So you need to find a race and sign up, figure out a training plan, and dig those shoes out of the back of the closet.
或许你要写一个家族传记。首先吗,你可以读读别人的家族历史,了解一下大概的风格 然后可以想象你要问亲戚的问题,约定和他们见面谈话的时间。或者你想要参加一个五千米的短程马拉松。你需要先找一个竞赛报名,再做一个培训计划,从衣柜底下翻出你的运动鞋。
And then -- this is key -- we treat our priorities as the equivalent of that broken water heater, by putting them into our schedules first. We do this by thinking through our weeks before we are in them.
然后——这是关键——我们将我们的首要事件视为那个坏掉的热水器,将它们优先放入我们的日程表里。我们要在事情发生的几周前就先想好。
I find a really good time to do this is Friday afternoons. Friday afternoon is what an economist might calla "low opportunity cost" time. Most of us are not sitting there on Friday afternoons saying, "I am excited to make progress toward my personal and professional priorities right now."
我发现周五的下午最适合处理这事儿。周五的下午是被经济学家称为“低机会成本”时间。我们大部分人不会在周五下午想着,“我要朝我的个人和职业生涯的首要事件迈进了, 所以很兴奋。“
But we are willing to think about what those should be. So take a little bit of time Friday afternoon, make yourself a three-category priority list: career, relationships, self. Making a three-category list reminds usthat there should be something in all three categories.
但是我们愿意去想那些事是什么。所以在周五下午花一点时间,为自己做一个分成三类的首要事件的列表:事业、人际关系、个人。这样的三项分类列表提醒了我们每一个类别都应该有一些事。
Career, we think about; relationships, self -- not so much. But anyway, just a short list, two to three items in each. Then look out over the whole of the next week, and see where you can plan them in.
事业,我们经常考虑;人际关系,个人——很少会想。无论如何,只要一个短短的列表,每个都包含两到三件事。它们会帮助我们看清下周,如何在下周计划这些事情。你可以决定如何计划。
Where you plan them in is up to you. I know this is going to be more complicated for some people than others. I mean, some people's lives are just harder than others. It is not going to be easy to find time to take that poetry class if you are caring for multiple children on your own. I get that. And I don't want to minimize anyone's struggle. But I do think that the numbers I am about to tell you are empowering.
这可能对一些人来说会比较困难一点。我的意思是,有些人的人生就是比较复杂。如果你自己有好几个要照顾的小孩,想要找时间去参加诗歌班一定不容易。我懂。我不想轻视任何人的困难。但是我觉得我接下来要说的数字,是会改变你的想法的。
There are 168 hours in a week. Twenty-four times seven is 168 hours. That is a lot of time. If you are working a full-time job, so 40 hours a week, sleeping eight hours a night, so 56 hours a week -- that leaves 72 hours for other things. That is a lot of time.
我们每周都有168个小时,24乘以7是168个小时。这是一段很长时间。假如你有一个全职的工作,一周是40个小时,每晚睡八个小时,一周是56个小时,我们有剩下72个小时来做其他事情。这是一段很长的时间。
You say you're working 50 hours a week, maybe a main job and a side hustle. Well, that leaves 62 hours for other things. You say you're working 60 hours. Well, that leaves 52 hours for other things. You say you're working more than 60 hours. Well, are you sure?
假如你说你每周工作50个小时,比如一份全职和一份兼职。这样你还是有60小时去做其他的事情。假如你说你每周工作60个小时,你还是有52个小时去做其他的事情。你说你每周工作超过60个小时,你确定吗?
There was once a study comparing people's estimated work weeks with time diaries. They found that people claiming 75-plus-hour work weeks were off by about 25 hours.
曾经有一个研究对比了人们估计的工作时间,和实际的工作日记。他们发现那些表示工作超过75小时的人,有25小时的误差。
You can guess in which direction, right? Anyway, in 168 hours a week, I think we can find time for what matters to you.
你可以猜到这个误差是多了还是少了吧?无论如何,在一周的168个小时里,我觉得我们总可以找到时间做我们想做的事。
If you want to spend more time with your kids, you want to study more for a test you're taking, you want to exercise for three hours and volunteer for two, you can. And that's even if you're working way more than full-time hours.
如果你想花时间陪陪你的孩子,或者准备你即将到来的考试,你想锻炼两三个小时或者 做两个小时志愿者,你都可以的。即便你的工作时间远超过法定时间。
So we have plenty of time, which is great, because guess what? We don't even need that much time to do amazing things. But when most of us have bits of time, what do we do? Pull out the phone, right?Start deleting emails. Otherwise, we're puttering around the house or watching TV.
所以我们有很多时间,这很好。但是你知道吗?我们根本不需要那么多时间去完成一个大目标。但当我们有一点空闲时间的时候,我们会做什么?拿出手机,是吧?开始删除邮件。或者在家里闲逛,看电视。
But small moments can have great power. You can use your bits of time for bits of joy. Maybe it's choosing to read something wonderful on the bus on the way to work.
但是每个不起眼的时刻都潜力无限。你可以用零星的时间,来获得零星的快乐。比如说在去上班的公车上读一些精彩的东西。
I know when I had a job that required two bus rides and a subway ride every morning, I used to go to the library on weekends to get stuff to read. It made the whole experience almost, almost, enjoyable. Breaks at work can be used for meditating or praying. If family dinner is out because of your crazy work schedule, maybe family breakfast could be a good substitute.
当我以前的工作需要我每天早上乘两趟公车和一趟地铁的时候,我周末会去图书馆找东西来读。这几乎,几乎让我的生活更丰富了。工作间隙的休息时间可以用来冥想或者祷告。如果你因为工作忙而不能吃家庭晚餐,试一下家庭早餐。
It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where the good stuff can go. I truly believe this.There is time. Even if we are busy, we have time for what matters. And when we focus on what matters, we can build the lives we want in the time we've got.
这就是看着一个人所有的时间,然后找到什么时候可以做想做的事。我真的相信,我们都有充分的时间。就算我们很忙,我们仍然有时间去做重要的事。当我们关注在重要的事上时,我们可以用所拥有的时间创造我们想要的生活。
Thank you.
谢谢。
经典TED英语演讲稿 篇3
Have you ever held a question in mind for so long that it becomes part of how you think? Maybe even part of who you are as a person? Well I’ve had a question in my mind for many, many years and that is: how can you speed up learning? Now, this is an interesting question because if you speed up learning you can spend less time at school. And if you learn really fast, you probably wouldn’t have to go to school at all.
Now, when I was young, school was sort of okay but I found quite often that school got in the way of learning so I had this question in mind: how do you learn faster? And this began when I was very, very young, when I was about eleven years old I wrote a letter to researchers in the Soviet Union, asking about hypnopaedia, this is sleep learning, where you get a tape recorder, you put it beside your bed and it turns on in the middle of the night when you’re sleeping, and you’re supposed to be learning from this.
A good idea, unfortunately it doesn’t work. But, hypnopaedia did open the doors to research in other areas and we’ve had incredible discoveries about learning that began with that first question. I went on from there to become passionate about psychology and I have been involved in psychology in many ways for the rest of my life up until this point. In 1981 I took myself to China and I decided that I was going to be native level in Chinese inside two years.
Now, you need to understand that in 1981, everybody thought Chinese was really, really difficult and that a westerner could study for ten years or more and never really get very good at it. And I also went in with a different idea which was: taking all of the conclusions from psychological research up to that point and applying them to the learning process. What was really cool was that in six months I was fluent in Mandarin Chinese and took a little bit longer to get up to native. But I looked around and I saw all of these people from different countries struggling terribly with Chinese, I saw Chinese people struggling terribly to learn English and other languages, and so my question got refined down to: how can you help a normal adult learn a new language quickly, easily and effectively?
Now this a really, really important question in today’s world. We have massive challenges with environment we have massive challenges with social dislocation, with wars, all sorts of things going on and if we can’t communicate we’re really going to have difficulty solving these problems. So we need to be able to speak each other’s languages, this is really, really important.
The question then is how do you do that. Well, it’s actually really easy. You look around for people who can already do it, you look for situations where it’s already working and then you identify the principles and apply them. It’s called modelling and I’ve been looking at language learning and modelling language learning for about fifteen to twenty years now.
And my conclusion, my observation from this is that any adult can learn a second language to fluency inside six months. Now when I say this, most people think I’m crazy, this is not possible. So let me remind everybody of the history of human progress, it’s all about expanding our limits.
In 1950 everybody believed that running one mile in four minutes was impossible and then Roger Bannister did it in 1956 and from there it’s got shorter and shorter. 100 years ago everybody believed that heavy stuff doesn’t fly. Except it does and we all know this. How does heavy stuff fly? We reorganise the materials using principles that we have learned from observing nature, birds in this case. And today we’ve gone ever further, so you can fly a car. You can buy one of these for a couple hundred thousand US dollars. We now have cars in the world that can fly. And there’s a different way to fly that we’ve learned from squirrels. So all you need to do is copy what a flying squirrel does, build a suit called a wing suit and off you go, you can fly like a squirrel.
No, most people, a lot of people, I wouldn’t say everybody but a lot of people think they can’t draw. However there are some key principles, five principles that you can apply to learning to draw and you can 2 actually learn to draw in five days. So, if you draw like this, you learn these principles for five days and apply them and after five days you can draw something like this. Now I know this is true because that was my first drawing and after five days of applying these principles that was what I was able to do. And I looked at this and I went ‘wow,’ so that’s how I look like when I’m concentrating so intensely that my brain is exploding. So, anybody can learn to draw in five days and in the same way, with the same logic, anybody can learn a second language in six months.
经典TED英语演讲稿 篇4
We're going to go on a dive to the deep sea, and anyone that's had that lovely opportunity knows that for about two and half hours on the way down, it's a perfectly positively pitch—black world。 And we used to see the most mysterious animals out the windowthat you couldn't describe: these blinking lights —— a world of bioluminescence, like fireflies。 Dr。 Edith Widder —— she's now at the Ocean Research and Conservation Association —— was able to come up with a camera that could capture some of these incredible animals, and that's what you're seeing here on the screen。
好了,我们即将潜入海底深处。 任何一个有过这种美妙机会的人都知道 在这两个半小时的下降过程中, 是一个完全漆黑的世界。 我们透过窗户会看见世界上各种最神秘的动物, 各种无法形容的动物。这些闪亮着的光, 完美地构成了如萤火虫般发光的世界。 研究保护协会的Edith Witter博士 发明了一种照相机, 这种照相机可以拍下这些令人难以置信的生物。 这就是你现在在屏幕上看到的。
That's all bioluminescence。 So, like I said: just like fireflies。 There's a flying turkey under a tree。 (Laughter) I'm a geologist by training。 But I love that。 And you see, some of the bioluminescence they use to avoid being eaten, some they use to attract prey, but all of it, from an artistic point of view, is positively amazing。 And a lot of what goes on inside 。。。 there's a fish with glowing eyes, pulsating eyes。 Some of the colors are designed to hypnotize, these lovely patterns。 And then this last one, one of my favorites, this pinwheel design。 Just absolutely amazing, every single dive。
他们全部都是生物发光体。像我说的,就像萤火虫一样。 这是个会飞的火鸡,在树下。(笑声) 我知道我现在像是个实习期的地质学家,不过我就是喜欢。 你可以看到这些生物发出的光, 有些是为了避免被吃掉。 有些又是为引诱食物上钩。 尽管如此,用艺术的角度来看,这些都如此神奇。 再来看看这里发生了些什么—— 这条鱼有着会发光,闪烁的眼睛。 有些颜色则可以催眠。 多么有趣的图案。这是最后一个: 也是我的最爱,像转轮一样的设计。 每一次潜水都充满着惊喜。
That's the unknown world, and today we've only explored about 3 percent of what's out there in the ocean。 Already we've found the world's highest mountains, the world's deepest valleys, underwater lakes, underwater waterfalls —— a lot of that we shared with you from the stage。 And in a place where we thought no life at all, we find more life, we think, and diversity and density than the tropical rainforest, which tells us that we don't know much about this planet at all。 There's still 97 percent, and either that 97 percent is empty or just full of surprises。
这正是一个未知的世界。到今天为止,我们只探索了其中的极小部分, 大约只占了所有海洋的3%。 到现在,我们已经发现了世界上最高的山峰, 最深的峡谷, 水下湖,水下瀑布, 还有我们刚才看到的。 然而,恰是我们曾经以为根本不可能有生命的地方, 我们发现了众多的生物,还有它们的密度和多样性, 都超过了热带雨林。这告诉我们 我们实际上对自己的星球还不甚了解。 还有剩下的97%,那里要不就是一片荒芜,要不就是充满惊喜。
But I want to jump up to shallow water now and look at some creatures that are positively amazing。Cephalopods —— head—foots。 As a kid I knew them as calamari, mostly。 (Laughter) This is an octopus —— this is the work of Dr。 Roger Hanlon at the Marine Biological Lab —— and it's just fascinating how cephalopods can, with their incredible eyes, sense their surroundings, look at light, look at patterns。 Here's an octopus moving across the reef, finds a spot to settle down, curls up and then disappears into the background。 Tough thing to do。
不过我现在还是想说说浅水里的世界, 来看看那些神奇的生物。 头足类动物,有头有角。小时候我把他们当作是枪乌贼。 这是一条章鱼。 这是来自Roger Hanlon博士,海洋生物实验室的成果。 这些头足类动物真令人着迷, 它用它们的眼睛,它们那难以置信的眼睛来观察周围的环境, 看光,看图案。 这有只章鱼正在穿过礁石。 找到一个位置,停下来,卷起,然后马上消失在背景之中。 这很难做到。
In the next bit, we're going to see a couple squid。 These are squid。 Now males, when they fight, if they're really aggressive, they turn white。 And these two males are fighting, they do it by bouncing their butts together, which is an interesting concept。 Now, here's a male on the left and a female on the right, and the male has managed to split his coloration so the female only always sees the kinder gentler squid in him。 And the male 。。。 (Laughter) We're going to see it again。 Let's take a look at it again。 Watch the coloration: white on the right, brown on the left。 He takes a step back —— so he's keeping off the other males by splitting his body —— and comes up on the other side 。。。 Bingo! Now I'm told that's not just a squid phenomenon with males, but I don't know。 (Laughter)
接下来,再来一起看一对鱿鱼。 这就是鱿鱼。当雄性鱿鱼搏斗时, 如果它们想要显示出自己的侵略性,它们就变为白色了。 这有两条雄鱿鱼在搏斗。 它们用撞屁股的方式来搏斗, 真是挺有意思的方法。这里有一条雄性在左边, 雌性在右边。 看,这条雄性能有办法利用颜色把自己分为两半, 所以雌性只能看到它温顺,优雅的一边, 雄性—— (笑声)再来看一次。 让我们再看一次。注意它的颜色: 白色在右边,棕色在左边。 它后退一步,让其它的雄性无法靠近 来到另外一边,并且马上转换颜色。 瞧!以前有人告诉我 这个雄性特征不仅仅是在鱿鱼身上,不过我也不太确定。 (掌声)
经典TED英语演讲稿 篇5
Over the next five minutes, my intention is to transform your relationship with sound. Let me start with the observation that most of the sound around us is accidental, and much of it is unpleasant. (Traffic noise) We stand on street corners, shouting over noise like this, and pretending that it doesn't exist. Well, this habit of suppressing sound has meant that our relationship with sound has become largely unconscious.
There are four major ways sound is affecting you all the time, and I'd like to raise them in your consciousness today. First is physiological. (Loud alarm clocks) Sorry about that. I've just given you a shot of cortisol, your fight/flight hormone. Sounds are affecting your hormone secretions all the time, but also your breathing, your heart rate -- which I just also did -- and your brainwaves.
It's not just unpleasant sounds like that that do it. This is surf. (Ocean waves) It has the frequency of roughly 12 cycles per minute. Most people find that very soothing, and, interestingly, 12 cycles per minute is roughly the frequency of the breathing of a sleeping human. There is a deep resonance with being at rest. We also associate it with being stress-free and on holiday.
The second way in which sound affects you is psychological. Music is the most powerful form of sound that we know that affects our emotional state. (Albinoni's Adagio) This is guaranteed to make most of you feel pretty sad if I leave it on. Music is not the only kind of sound, however, which affects your emotions.
Natural sound can do that too. Birdsong, for example, is a sound which most people find reassuring. (Birds chirping) There is a reason for that. Over hundreds of thousands of years we've learned that when the birds are singing, things are safe. It's when they stop you need to be worried.
The third way in which sound affects you is cognitively. You can't understand two people talking at once ("If you're listening to this version of") ("me you're on the wrong track.") or in this case one person talking twice. Try and listen to the other one. ("You have to choose which me you're going to listen to.")
We have a very small amount of bandwidth for processing auditory input, which is why noise like this -- (Office noise) -- is extremely damaging for productivity. If you have to work in an open-plan office like this, your productivity is greatly reduced. And whatever number you're thinking of, it probably isn't as bad as this. (Ominous music) You are one third as productive in open-plan offices as in quiet rooms. And I have a tip for you. If you have to work in spaces like that, carry headphones with you, with a soothing sound like birdsong. Put them on and your productivity goes back up to triple what it would be.
The fourth way in which sound affects us is behaviorally. With all that other stuff going on, it would be amazing if our behavior didn't change. (Techno music inside a car) So, ask yourself: Is this person ever going to drive at a steady 28 miles per hour? I don't think so. At the simplest, you move away from unpleasant sound and towards pleasant sounds. So if I were to play this -- (Jackhammer) -- for more than a few seconds, you'd feel uncomfortable; for more than a few minutes, you'd be leaving the room in droves. For people who can't get away from noise like that, it's extremely damaging for their health.
And that's not the only thing that bad sound damages. Most retail sound is inappropriate and accidental, and even hostile, and it has a dramatic effect on sales. For those of you who are retailers, you may want to look away before I show this slide. They are losing up to 30 percent of their business with people leaving shops faster, or just turning around on the door. We all have done it, leaving the area because the sound in there is so dreadful.
I want to spend just a moment talking about the model that we've developed, which allows us to start at the top and look at the drivers of sound, analyze the soundscape and then predict the four outcomes I've just talked about. Or start at the bottom, and say what outcomes do we want, and then design a soundscape to have a desired effect. At last we've got some science we can apply. And we're in the business of designing soundscapes.
Just a word on music. Music is the most powerful sound there is, often inappropriately deployed. It's powerful for two reasons. You recognize it fast, and you associate it very powerfully. I'll give you two examples. (First chord of The Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night") Most of you recognize that immediately. The younger, maybe not. (Laughter) (First two notes of "Jaws" theme) And most of you associate that with something! Now, those are one-second samples of music. Music is very powerful. And unfortunately it's veneering commercial spaces, often inappropriately. I hope that's going to change over the next few years.
ted中文演讲稿 篇6
(一)
三月的洛阳,点乱红山碎杏发,铺平绿水新苹生,十里湖光千世梦,花语雨初嬉笑回。而那年的三月,白雁翅低仍重飞,黄鹂舌涩未成语,纵使是旷世迁客骚人也难揄扬曾经这如仙境般的美景。他们的眼中只是,泥上飘零许多愁,落水边花未随流;只是,感时残花溅血泪,恨别憔鸟惊恨心。那年,国家天下,内外忧患,人心惶惶。那年,朝廷政权摇摇欲坠,动荡不安,眼看着这曾经盛世民族如今将逢灭顶之灾。
那年,朝中,权臣当道,把持朝政。新帝幼小,是非不分。边境,四面临敌,千里报急。朝廷却迟迟不肯发兵救援。守边大将叶护一人难敌万众,被困敌军,生死未卜。权臣说服幼帝让将军之子叶寒下洛阳,寻找传说中的绝世宝剑,传说,“宝剑一出,无与争锋,以一敌万,救民水火。”
那年,叶寒来到洛阳。
阴沉沉的风刮过洛阳边界,天空中有无数只鸟雀盘旋哀鸣,浓烈的悲哀从叶寒狼眼般狭长深邃的眼睛中渐渐渗出。突逢家变,年少的他,挑起家主的负担。背负国仇,无援的他,担起救国的重任。谁来怜惜,这个昔日冷漠倔犟的少年。多日的跋涉,身心双疲的他,两眼一黑,重重的倒在地上,晕了过去。
不知多久,褥席上,叶寒躺着,嘴角微微上扬,不知他在梦中遇到了谁。微瞬间,叶寒醒了。睁开眼,发现自己躺在一张干净的床上,身边是一个清秀的少年。
“我是言幽,是我救了你。你的身体很弱,需要休息。”少年对着叶寒说。
“嗯?恩!”话虽短,却是温暖。叶寒笑了,这种感觉好像父亲。
“来,喝药。”黑黢黢的药水,泛着波痕。叶寒斜觑着言幽,那双眼睛似乎与梦中的人影重叠,一样的光彩熠熠,似夜空中的星,折射出柔和的颜色,却带着点点忧愁。
“父亲……”叶寒低头不知在自语什么。
(二)
数月过去,天地景物,宛若迷雾。山涧四季,水面涟漪,草际烟光,月下花容,杲杲云彩,风中飘逸。那天晚上,赤橙色的星辰点缀着墨蓝色的天空,夜弥漫着温馨的颜色。那天山上,磷光莹莹,萤火虫闪着模糊地绿光,连缀起一片绿色,好似夜空的倒影,迷茫而又清晰。言幽突然开口道:“你,想要什么?”
叶寒眉头不见任何波澜,默默注视夜空许久,方回声:“我要找到宝剑,复兴我朝。”意气勃发,“我要救父亲,我的父亲……”黯然泣下,声音渐小,一抽一噎。
“男儿有泪不轻弹,不要哭。”言幽的声音庄重有威严,“我们会救出来的。”
“嗯。”叶寒望着像似父亲的眼神,颔首一点,渐渐凝神,双眉紧蹙,脆弱的脸上浮现如山般坚毅,如月般冷漠倔强。
又是长时间的沉默。
言幽突然又道“生在乱时,是我们的不幸。但,国破山在,城春草木,只待烟雨,雨润如舒。逢在痛时,是我们的不甘,但,宝剑锋从磨砺出。是英雄,终显本色,仗剑纵路,才是漫游名山的铮铮傲骨。即使,一把锈迹斑驳的剑。”
“是!”叶寒铿锵有力的回答。
搁浅的记忆一点点尘封重启,叶寒的脑海闪烁嘶嘶火光:
“哟,这不是言幽吗?怎么,又出来行骗了。害人还没害够吗?”每每这声音如刺般在叶寒的脑中回旋。
“我不是。”言幽的声音急促响起,却惜在人们的嬉笑中,反驳声消失在人海。他的眉角是落寞,是忧愁,是痛恨,是不甘。
叶寒懂了,他知道言幽如同自己有不堪回首的过去,有自己的痛,有自己的殇,一直,深深埋在内心最深处。叶寒明了,他知道言幽在等待属于自己的命轮,等待有一天自己俯看天下。
“那你呢?”叶寒道。
“我。呵呵,我枉费一生医术。哼,终有一天,我会站在颠峰,让天下的人都知道我言幽是何等的医术高超。”双拳紧握,眉角是坚毅,是凝重。
“可为何他们不信,他们宁愿死也不信,我说他们喝的符汤有毒,不能喝。他们不听,喝了,死了人,还怪罪于我,说我得罪神明,神明降罪,害他们惨死,为什么?”言幽大喊,“为什么,为什么?”
“呵。”叶寒苦笑。在村里住了几月,渐渐的打听到言幽的事,他不能说什么,也不能做什么,他知道是村民的无知,可这有什么办法,村民信神明,不信言幽。每当他问村民言幽的事,他们总是咬牙切齿,恨不得噬其肉,饮其血。
是啊?为什么?我们只是少年,为何,为何?
黑夜总是会过去的,风如海啸席卷而过,划开黎明的光彩。
(三)
轻轻的用叹息掩埋疲惫,轻轻的用叹息远离血腥,轻轻的用叹息牵手,道一声“能行”,轻轻的用叹息别离殇时,流转命轮。已经一个月了,那天晚上的对话后,他们投身军营,开始了流离颠沛的生活。
叶寒没有再去找宝剑,没有再把希望全部寄托在宝剑上,他相信了言幽,要靠自己的双手赶走敌人,靠自己的努力救出父亲。他当小兵起,一步一步的向上。
黑夜漫长,轻轻阖眼,叶寒睡了。的人金袍战衣,意气奋发。金戈铁马,驰骋沙场。脸上,没有随着岁月的流失日渐沧桑。“寒儿……寒儿……”一遍遍的唤着。梦中的叶寒突然紧皱眉头,不安的梦魇缠着他,“不要……血……父亲……”。
白帐撩起,言幽站在了床前,“醒醒,醒醒。”言幽摇动着叶寒的身躯,轻轻拍打叶寒的脸。叶寒睁开眼,短短一瞬,“言幽,谢谢你。”言幽只是浅浅的一笑。他也从军了,当了军医。叶寒看着瞬即而逝的笑容,想起梦中的一幕,父亲被困,齐唰唰的剑砍到他身上,他心悸了。“没事,只是噩梦。”言幽淡淡地说。叶寒看着类似父亲眼睛,轻轻点了点头。
鼓角声暮霭中响起,无数将士战场中撕杀,满地血流,殷红一片。一个,两个,不停的倒下。几天几夜的撕杀,将士们累到了极点。这几天几夜,将士们打退敌人的一轮又一轮的突袭,今天,成功了。躺在沙地上,将士们欣慰地露出了笑容,他们没有死,活着,见到了黎明的期盼。军旗飘扬,旗下,一黑一白。黑色铠甲,白色军袍,如今,他们成就了未来。
不败少年将军叶寒,绝世军营神医言幽,他们,生死阔契。烹羊宰牛战场为乐,风萧萧兮畅行天涯。
霎时,他们名声响彻大江南北,震撼一时多少豪杰。
霎时,敌人闻风丧胆望风而逃,卷起多少千堆风雪。
千古江山踏歌恒飞,寻常巷陌风雨共济。秋牡丹满盛中,他们带着凌人的傲慢,紫陌红尘中,日久弥香。花海中,轻转罗盘,旋开了通往盛世的大道。
(四)
风尘扬,金夕消。
蹄声,塞满了天与地。
蹄声骤聚,一黑一白,在苍黄的日影下浮动。他们,骑着马,奔腾。
胜利的那天,叶寒救出了父亲。站在敌军营前,叶寒的心,久久不能平息。一颤一颤的。“爹。”喊出了多少天的期盼,多少天的痛楚。“太好了,真是太好了!”叶寒欢呼,露出少年的天真。言幽一旁站着,露出了浅浅的微笑,他由衷的高兴:“是太好了,是太好了!”堇色的余辉下拉长了三人的身影。
金黄的沙翻滚,马背上的两个少年望着火红的远方,望着曾经敌寇猖狂的地方,一串泪,一串泪辛酸的泪,一串泪至死也不会凝竭的泪,粉碎在金黄的尘沙上,粉碎着重重叠叠的昨日,屈辱的昨日,殇痛的昨日。他们流出了一个笑容,流出了一个皇家的未来,流出了命轮的流转。
他们,放长了僵绳,让马蹄缓缓敲响前行的路。“驾”鞭马声响起,沙场上淡淡的身影渐渐拉长,一点一点浅去……
“阿寒,你说那些村民会相信我吗?”
“会,一定会的。”
