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.

Schoolmates:

When you look the lovable animated cartoon, plays is in a stew human's computer games, rides the fast train, is answering transoceanic telephone time, ......Not only your might once realize the science the strength, the science changed this world, also changed our life, the science side us.

Opens for the 20th century the grand chapters, not only we discovered the humanity to experience the blood and the fire baptism in these hundred years, has created the innumerable scientific miracles. 19th century France famous science fiction writer of fiction verne fictionalizing, at that time let the human be inconceivable, he fantasized moon landing travel, the airplane, the long-range gun and so on, all 11 became the reality in the 20th century. In the 21st century today, the high tech is ubiquitous.

As cross-century one generation, how posture should we adapt the new century by, the load get up the new century heavy burden? Not only science and technology changing with each new day, causes the science to serve for the most advanced technique, also more and more many seeps to during ours daily life, this needs us who is in the young people time to deeply love the science, the study science. Participation science and technology “five small” competition, reading science and technology books, caused me to understand many truths. The precise robot, does not use the fuel the automobile, the hypothesized soccer game, high tech information transmission and so on, each one vivid interesting phenomena, aroused me to explore the science the desire.

Our each people all want to study the science, the dissemination civilization, while enjoys the new life, must create the new life, now, the technical product renewal speeds up unceasingly, the visible television, the computer surfer, the pacemaker, already did not calculate was fresh. Vacuum cleaner invented which from 1901, to the artificial earth satellite, carried the human spaceship, the science and technology demonstrates the formidable strength in the different domain. Electronic industry, communication technology daily popularization, nanotechnology, superconductivity material widespread application, soon one day, perhaps in yours dinner table, can appear likely bio-engineering foods and so on outer space green pepper, man-made beefsteak. Studies the science and technology, is not merely in order to become the scientist, also is for can adapt the life, more has been able to become the new century the master, the load gets up the new century, is the national construction, makes the contribution for the human culture.

Since new China had been established, our country's technical development progresses by leaps and bounds, the synthesized insulin, finishes a job plants, the hybrid rice again, explodes atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, launch satellite and airship and so on, these technical achievement which focuses attention on the common people, reduced our country and the advanced countries science and technology disparity greatly, has poured into the vigor for our country's modernization. Grandpa Deng Xiaoping said “the science and technology is the first productive forces”, indeed so, the science has inserted the wing for our motherland soaring. Chairman Mao Zedong once said to the youth that, the world was you, also is we, but is your in the final analysis. This speech, has been full of the elders to our earnest expectation. If the elders have constructed the 20th century motherlands with the industrious work, that, we should by the knowledge, get up the new century heavy burden by the scientific load.

Schoolmates, we are being at the growth developmental stage, the study science, lets us start since childhood. We must learn each kind of literacy class diligently, because this is all study foundation; At the same time, to each kind the popular science books, the publication which suits our elementary student to look, should better read some in the after school; Also should begin to do each science small experiment, the small manufacture positively, writes the science small paper and so on, raises to the science interest. Long this gets down, we can certainly deeply love the science, has the rich scientific knowledge. Humanity's wisdom is infinite, regardless of is US's Challenger number detonation, the whole world computer virus' promotion, always all cannot prevent humanity's advance in technology. “The knowledge is the strength”, Bacon this sentence enjoys great popularity the maxim did not know had driven how many earnestly seeks the knowledge human. Now, lets us also use it to encourage oneself, makes one to deeply love the science the new generation, the load gets up the new century heavy responsibility, for our motherland tomorrow, will compose a more magnificent poem!

Thanks everybody.

英语励志演讲稿篇2中文翻译:

同学们:

当你们看着可爱的动画片,玩着迷人的电脑游戏,坐上快速的列车,接听着越洋电话的时候,……你可曾意识到科学的力量,科学不仅改变了这个世界,也改变了我们的生活,科学就在我们身边。

翻开20世纪的壮丽篇章,我们发现人类在这百年中不仅经历了血与火的洗礼,更创造了无数科学奇迹。19世纪法国著名科幻小说家凡尔纳的虚构,当时让人不可思议,他所幻想的登月旅行、飞机、远射程炮等,在20世纪都一一成为现实。在21世纪的今天,高科技更是无处不在。

作为跨世纪的一代,我们又该以怎样的姿态去适应新世纪,担起新世纪的重担呢? 科学技术的日新月异,使得科学不只为尖端技术服务,也越来越多地渗透到我们的日常生活之中,这就需要正处于青少年时代的我们热爱科学,学习科学。参加科技“五小”比赛、阅读科技书籍,使我明白了许多道理。精密的机器人,不用燃料的汽车,虚拟的足球赛,高科技信息的传送等等,一个个生动有趣的现象,激起了我探索科学的愿望。

我们每个人都要学习科学,传播文明,在享受新生活的同时,更要创造新生活,如今,科技产品的更新换代不断加快,可视电视、电脑上网、心脏起搏器,已经不算新鲜了。从1920xx年发明的真空吸尘器,到人造地球卫星、载人宇宙飞船,科技在不同领域里显示出了强大的力量。电子产业、通讯技术的日益普及,纳米技术、超导材料的广泛应用,不久的一天,也许就在你的餐桌上,会出现像太空青椒、人造牛排等生物工程食品。学习科学技术,不仅仅是为了成为科学家,也是为了能适应生活,更为了能成为新世纪的主人,担起新世纪,为国家建设,为人类文明做出贡献。

新中国成立以来,我国的科技发展突飞猛进,人工合成胰岛素、断手再植、杂交水稻、爆炸***和***、发射人造卫星和飞船等等,这些令世人瞩目的科技成就,大大缩短了我国和先进国家的科学技术的差距,为我国的现代化建设注入了活力。邓小平爷爷说“科学技术是第一生产力”,的确如此,科学为我们祖国的腾飞插上了翅膀。毛泽东主席曾对青年说,世界是你们的,也是我们的,但归根结底是你们的。这句话,饱含了长辈们对我们的殷切期望。如果说长辈们用辛勤的劳动建设了20世纪的祖国,那么,我们就应该以知识、以科学担起新世纪的重担。

同学们,我们正处于成长发育阶段,学习科学,让我们从小做起。我们要努力学好各种文化课,因为这是一切学习的基础;同时,对各种适合我们小学生看的科普书籍、报刊,最好在课余多阅读一些;还应该积极动手搞各种科学小实验、小制作,写科学小论文等,培养对科学的兴趣。长此下去,我们一定能够热爱科学,拥有丰富的科学知识。 人类的智慧是无限的,无论是美国的挑战者号爆炸,还是全球计算机病毒的升级,从来都不能阻止人类的科技进步。“知识就是力量”,培根这句脍炙人口的格言不知激励了多少渴求知识的人。如今,让我们也用它来勉励自己,做一个热爱科学的新一代,担起新世纪的重任,为我们祖国的明天,谱写出更加辉煌的诗篇!

谢谢大家。

i have read this report, a domestic company asked a representative of the united states to conduct on-the-spot guidance. the representative of the united states has stood strong when he entered job location. he said:” all visitors to the site must wear safety helmet, i wear a helmet for my own safety.” after reading this story, i could not help applauding for his safety awareness.

i want to be safe, so i will do risk analysis properly and seriously with my colleagues before work, this will root out incipient fault.

i want to be safe, so i will always remind my partners achieving three-no harm in the operations, because whoever comes out of the accident, we do have a kind of pain from his injury.

i want to be safe, so i work hard to strengthen my work skills, as it is the only way i will know what kind of work practice hiding security problems, i will learn to prepare and avoid accidents.

of course, we emphasize and promote i want to be safedoes not negate“want me to be safe, but should pay attention to coordination and unity of both. if we only pay attention to i want to be safe, and fail to pay attention to want me to be safe , it is wrong, and the basis of production safety will not be solid, too.

Money is very important for us but is not the most important things in ourlife.Many things are more important than money ,such as friendship ,love ,andfamily ,and so on .We can use money to buy many things but for people's hearts.Apeople only care the money ,which is very sorrowful.Gradually,he will lose manythings that is more important than money.And last,he will become lonely.

Sometimes money can let many people gather and make friends with you.However,you have to know they may be not your true friends and they just wantyou money.A true friend never care whether his friend is poor or rich.A firendin need is a friend indeed.Having some sincere friends is the truehappiness.

Anyway,money can solve lots of problems but it can't bring you happinessbecause it can't buy a true heart.Please remember that some things in the worldis invaluable.So don't live only for money.

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."

Robert Fulghum has written seven bestsellers including "All I Really Needto Know I Learned in Kindergarten." A native of Waco, Texas, he was a Unitarianminister for 22 years and taught painting and philosophy. Fulghum lives inSeattle and Crete.

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。”

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.”

翻译: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。”

the other day my aunt paid me a visit. she was overjoyed. “i got thehighest mark in the mid-term examination!” she said. don't be surprised! my auntis indeed a student; to be exact, a college student at the age of 45.

last year, she put aside her private business and signed up for a one-year,full-time management course in a college. “this was the wisest decision i haveever made,” she said proudly like a teenage girl. to her, college is always aright place to pick up new ideas, and new ideas always make her feel young.

“compared with the late 70s,” she says, “now college students have manydoors.” my aunt cannot help but recall her first college experience in 1978 whencollege doors began to be re-opened after the cultural revolution. she wasassigned to study engineering despite her desire to study chinese literature,and a few years later, the government sent her to work in a tv factory.

i was shocked when she first told me how she (had) had no choice in hermajor and job. look at us today! so many doors are open to us! i believe therehave never been such abundant opportunities for self-development as we havetoday. and my aunt told me that we should reach our goals by grasping all theseopportunities.

the first door i see is the opportunity to study different kinds ofsubjects that interest us. my aunt said she was happy to study management, butshe was also happy that she could attend lectures on ancient chinese poetry andon shakespearean drama. as for myself, i am an english major, but i may also goto lectures on history. to me, if college education in the past emphasizedspecialization, now, it emphasizes free and well-rounded development of eachindividual. so all the fine achievements of human civilization are open tous.

the second door is the door to the outside world. learning goes beyondclassrooms and national boundaries. my aunt remembers her previous college daysas monotonous and even calls her generation “frogs in a well.” but today, as theworld becomes a global village, it is important that our neighbors and we beopen-minded to learn with and from each other. i have many fellow internationalclassmates, and i am applying to an exchange program with a university abroad.as for my aunt, she is planning to get an mba degree in the united kingdom whereher daughter, my cousin, is now doing her master's degree in biochemistry. weare now taking the opportunity to study overseas, and when we come back, we'llput to use what we have learnt abroad.

the third door is the door to lifelong learning. as new ideas appear allthe time, we always need to acquire new knowledge, regardless of our age.naturally, my aunt herself is the best example. many of my aunt's contemporariessay that she is amazingly up-to-date for a middle-aged woman. she simplyresponds, “age doesn't matter. what matters is your attitude. you may think it'sstrange that i am still going to college, but i don't think i'm too old tolearn.” yes, she is right. since the government removed the age limit forcollege admissions in _, there are already some untraditional students, sittingwith us in the same classrooms. like these people, my aunt is old but she isvery young in spirit. with her incredible energy and determination, she embodiesboth tradition and modernity.

the doors open to us also pose challenges. for instance, we are faced withthe challenge of a balanced learning, the challenge of preserving our finetradition while learning from the west, and the challenge of learningcontinuously while carrying heavy responsibilities to our work and family. so,each door is a test of our courage, ability and judgment, but with the supportof my teachers, parents, friends and my aunt, i believe i can meet the challengehead on. when i reach my aunt's age, i can be proud to say that i have walkedthrough dozens of doors and will, in the remainder of my life, walk through manymore. possibly i will go back to college, too.

thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.

参考范文:

各位尊敬的校领导、老师们,亲爱的同学们:

你们好!我是五<6>班的黄明智,今天我演讲的题目是《书是打开知识大门的钥匙》。

莎士比亚曾说:“生活里没有书,就好比大地没有阳光;智慧里没有书,就好比鸟儿没有翅膀。”受爸爸妈妈影响,我从小就养成了看书报的习惯。我每天放学的第一件事,就是赶紧拿起当天的报纸。

有一次,我看了一本有网络语言的书,就拿着书跑到爸爸面前说:“爸爸,我不想成为一个天才。”爸爸奇怪地问我为什么?我打开书,指着上面的解释给爸爸看∶天才—天生的蠢才。爸爸从书架上找出《新华词典》,让我查词典上的解释。词典上的解释却是:天才是有卓绝聪明才智的人。爸爸对我说:“如果你认真读书,从书中汲取有用的知识,爸爸相信你将来会成为一个很有才华的人。否则,你就真的可能变成那个所谓的‘天才’啦!”

我爱读书,每当我拿着一本新书的时候,就觉得有一种栩栩如生,会说话的美妙的东西进入了我的生活。在书中,我和尼摩船长驾驶着“***”号畅游海底两万里;和弗格森博士乘热气球横跨非洲探险,度过气球上的五星期;跟福克绅士历尽艰辛,八十天环游地球。我曾为卖火柴的小女孩伤心落泪,为丑小鸭变成白天鹅而拍手欢呼。

同学们!你们知道每天太阳为什么都东起西落吗?天空为什么是蓝色的吗?夏天蝉儿为什么会鸣叫吗?快打开书本吧,答案就在里面!

我的演讲完毕,谢谢大家!

I was born in an ordinary family, but I never feel lacking anything in mylife. I receive love from my family. When I meet troubles, they support mewithout hesitation. The strong connection of kinship provides me the great powerto move on.

我出生在一个平凡的家庭,但在我的生活中,我从不觉得有缺失。我从家人那里得到了爱。当我遇到困难时,他们会毫不犹豫地支持我。紧紧联系在一起的亲情给了我前进的动力。

Chinese people pay special attention to the family reunion. No matter how faraway they are, the family members will come home and have big dinner ontraditional festivals. The meal means so much for everyone. People enjoy themoment to have communication with each other and strengthen therelationship.

中国人特别注重家庭团聚。所以不管他们在哪里,传统节日的时候家庭成员都会回家吃大餐。这顿饭对每个人来说都很重要,大家享受着彼此之间的交流,加强了彼此的关系。

With the family’s support, we will be a strong person, no matter how hard thelife is. When we meet difficulties, it is natural for us to think about ourfamilies, as they give us the motivation to get over the hard time. If we aretired, just go home and talk to our parents, then all the annoyances will beforgotten and they mean nothing to you compared to the kinship.

有了家人的支持,无论生活多么艰难,我们都会成为一个坚强的人。当我们遇到困难时,我们很自然地会想到我们的家人,他们给了我们克服困难的动力。如果我们累了,回家和父母谈谈,所有的烦恼都将被遗忘,与亲情相比这些烦恼什么都不是。

The close kinship is the infinite power to lead us a positive life. I cherishall the love they give me.

亲密的亲情给我们积极的生活带来无限力量。我珍惜他们给我的所有爱。

Beggars are one of the most familiar groups in every city. They accompany us from our childhood until now, and I've found both the beggars and I change in this journey.

Years ago as a little girl, when I came across some old and disabled beggars on the road, I'd donate some pocket money to them, happily thinking I was helping.

s I have grown older, I've found the number of beggars has grown larger and they are more diverse. They appear in every corner of the city, on the overbridge, on the street, near restaurants, and even at your door. In contrast with the old days, it seems like the situation with beggars today is more complicated, which has made me hesitate before deciding whether to help them or not.

It's hard for me to give them money considering some who appear beggars in day time but dress up and go to fancy restaurants at night; and some who are controlled by some illegal organization and the money they get all goes to the organization. If I help them, I'd be making the problem worse, I'd be doing harm to the society, indirectly. But it's also hard not to give them money, considering there're real beggars who really need help. If I don't help them, who will? And where is my sympathy?

What hurts me the most is not how hard it is to distinguish the real help-seekers from the many false ones, but that some children are forced by adults, sometimes even their parents, to beg. They grow up despised by the world, out of mainstream society. When I see their eyes filled with desperation and impudence instead of purity and innocence, my heart sinks. We don't know how they will face the world when they grow up, how this will shape their characters, and what they may do to the society, to perpetuate this cycle of violence.

Months ago the Fu Jian government has promulgated a new policy to deal with 8 kinds of beggars. An internet survey shows that over 80% of voters reacted positively toward the policy. We know that one single policy cannot solve a problem as complex as this one, but we do look forward to some improvement. I wish all humanity can live like human.

今日乞丐

在城市中,乞丐是我们最熟悉的群体之一。他们伴随着我们的成长,从童年直到现在。在这个过程中,我发现,乞丐和我都在变。

小时候,每当看到路旁的乞丐,通常是老人或残疾人,我会给他们一些零钱,并且高兴地认为我帮了他们。

长大后,我发现身边乞丐的数量有所增加,而且他们种类繁多。他们无所不在,天桥上,大街上,饭馆旁,家门口,城市中处处是他们的身影。比起过去,今天的乞丐似乎更加复杂,使得我在决定帮不帮他们的时候犹豫不决。

想到那些白天装作乞丐行乞,而夜晚换装后跑到宾馆作乐的人;想到那些被不法集团控制,然后把乞讨来的钱上交给集团的人,我真的很难做到给他们钱。可是,想到那些真正需要帮助的乞丐,又很难做到不帮他们。如果不帮他们,我的同情心死到哪去了?

最让我难受的,并不是因为从众多的假乞丐中找出真乞丐是多么的困难,而是那些被成人,甚至被父母教唆,去乞讨的孩子们。他们在歧视中长大,和主流社会脱离。当我看到他们眼睛里本应有的纯真和童稚被绝望和无耻取代时,心里便很难受。我们不知道他们长大后会怎样面对这个世界,他们的性格会被童年的经历塑造成什么样子,以及他们有可能对社会做出怎样的事情---让恶性循环继续?

几个月前,福建省颁布了一项针对八类乞丐的新政策。网上调查显示,超过80%的人对此政策持乐观态度。虽然如此复杂的问题不能通过单单一项政策得以解决,我们还是期待着一些改善。愿所有的人都能像人一样活着。

Transcr ipt of Apple CEO Tim Cook's commencement address at Tulane University

苹果CEO蒂姆·库克杜兰大学毕业典礼演讲致词

Hello Tulane! Thank you President Fitts, Provost Forman, distinguished faculty, other faculty (laughs), and the entire Tulane family, including the workers, ushers, (and) volunteers who prepared this beautiful space. And I feel duty-bound to also recognize the hard-working bartenders at The Boot. Though they're not here with us this morning, I'm sure some of you are reflecting on their contributions as well. (The Boot is a popular college bar right next to Tulane's campus which has been around for decades.)

你好,杜兰大学!感谢菲茨校长、福尔曼教务长、尊敬的教职员工、其他教职员工[笑]以及整个杜兰大家庭,包括为这个美丽的讲堂做准备的工作人员、引座员和志愿者。我觉得我有责任也称赞一下在The Boot工作的辛勤的调酒师。虽然他们今天早上没有和我们在一起,但我相信你们中的一些人也在反思他们的贡献。[The Boot是一家受欢迎的大学酒吧,紧挨着杜兰大学校园,已经存在了几十年了。]

And just as many of you have New Orleans in your veins, and perhaps your livers, some of us at Apple have New Orleans in our blood as well. When I was a student at Auburn, the Big Easy was our favorite getaway. It's amazing how quickly those 363 miles fly by when you're driving toward a weekend of beignets and beer. And how slowly they go in the opposite direction. Apple's own Lisa Jackson is a proud Tulane alum. Yes. She brought the Green Wave all the way to Cupertino where she heads our environment and public policy work. We're thrilled to have her talent and leadership on our team.

就像你们中很多人的血管里也许还有肝脏里有新奥尔良一样,我们苹果公司的一些人的血液里也有新奥尔良。当我还是奥本大学的学生的时候,我们最喜欢的度假胜地是Big Easy。非常神奇的是,当你在周末开车驶向这个胜地,想象着甜甜圈和啤酒的时候,363英里的距离似乎一闪而过;而当你返程时,路途却显得那么遥远。苹果的员工丽莎-杰克逊(LisaJackson)是一位令人骄傲的杜兰大学校友。是。她把绿色浪潮一路带到了库比蒂诺,在那里她领导着我们的环境和公共政策工作。我们很高兴她能在我们的队伍中发挥才华和进行领导。

OK, enough about us. Let's talk about you. At moments like this, it always humbles me to watch a community come together to teach, mentor, advise, and finally say with one voice, congratulations to the class of 20xx!

好了,别再提我们了。让我们谈谈你们。在这样的时刻,看到一个社区聚集在一起传道受业解惑,最后用一个声音说,祝贺20xx年的同学们,这让我感到很谦卑!

Now there's another very important group: your family and friends. The people who, more than anyone else, loved, supported, and even sacrificed greatly to help you reach this moment. Let's give them a round of applause. This will be my first piece of advice. You might not appreciate until much later in your life how much this moment means to them. Or how that bond of obligation, love, and duty between you matters more than anything else.

现在还有一个非常重要的群体:你们的家人和朋友。那些比任何人都更爱你们、更支持你们、甚至甘愿自我牺牲的人,为了帮助你们达到这一时刻,他们付出了巨大的代价。让我们为他们鼓掌。这将是我的第一条建议。直到你生命的后期,你们才会意识到这一刻对他们来说有多么重要,或者意识到你们的义务、爱和责任有多么重要。

In fact, that's what I really want to talk to you about today. In a world where we obsessively document our own lives, most of us don't pay nearly enough attention to what we owe one another. Now this isn't just about calling your parents more, although I'm sure they'd be grateful if you did that. It's about recognizing that human civilization began when we realized that we could do more together. That the threats and danger outside the flickering firelight got smaller when we got bigger. And that we could create more - more prosperity, more beauty, more wisdom, and a better life - when we acknowledge certain shared truths and acted collectively.

事实上,这就是我今天真正想和你们说的。在一个我们沉迷于记录自己生活的世界里,我们中的大多数人对我们彼此亏欠的东西没有给予足够的关注。这不仅仅是给你们的父母打更多的电话,尽管我相信如果你们会这么做,他们会很感激的。当我们意识到我们可以在一起做更多的事情时,人类文明就开始了。当我们变得更越来越强大时,在闪烁的火光之外的威胁和危险就会变得越来越小。我们可以创造更多——更多的繁荣,更多的美,更多的智慧,更美好的生活——只要我们承认某些共同的真理并采取集体行动。

Maybe I'm biased, but I've always thought the South, and the Gulf Coast in particular, have hung on to this wisdom better than most. (Tim Cook grew up in Robertsdale, Alabama, which is about an hour from New Orleans and is similarly close to the Gulf of Mexico.) In this part of the country, your neighbors check up on you if they haven't heard from you in a while. Good news travels fast because your victories are their victories too. And you can't make it through someone's front door before they offer you a home-cooked meal.

也许我有偏见,但我一直认为南方,特别是墨西哥湾海岸,比大多数人更能坚持这一智慧。[库克在阿拉巴马州的罗伯茨代尔长大,那里距离新奥尔良大约一个小时的路程,同样靠近墨西哥湾。]在这个国家的这个地方,如果你们的邻居有一段时间没有你们的消息,他们会忍不住来看望你们。好消息传得很快,因为你们的胜利也是他们的胜利。在他们提供一顿热饭热菜招待你们之前,你们是不可能走出大门的。

Maybe you haven't thought about it very much, but these values have informed your Tulane education too. Just look at the motto: not for one's self, but for one's own. You've been fortunate to live, learn, and grow in a city where human currents blend into something magical and unexpected. Where unmatched beauty, natural beauty, literary beauty, musical beauty, cultural beauty, seem to spring unexpectedly from the bayou. The people of New Orleans use two tools to build this city: the unlikely and the impossible. Wherever you go, don't forget the lessons of this place. Life will always find lots of ways to tell you no, that you can't, that you shouldn't, that you'd be better off if you didn't try. But New Orleans teaches us there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than trying. Especially when we do it not in the service of one's self, but one's own.

也许你们还没有想太多,但这些价值观也影响了你们杜兰大学的教育。看看这句座右铭:不是为了自己,而是为了自己人。你们很幸运地生活、学习和成长在一座城市里,在这个城市里,人类的潮流融合成了一种神奇的、意想不到的东西。在那里,无与伦比的美,自然的美,文学的美,音乐的美,文化的美,似乎不期而至地从河口涌出。新奥尔良的人们使用两种工具来建造这座城市:不太可能的和不可能的。无论你走到哪里,都不要忘记这个地方的教训。生活总会找到很多方法来告诉你,不,你不能,你不应该,如果你不去尝试,你会过得更好。但是新奥尔良告诉我们,没有什么比尝试更美丽和更有价值了。尤其是当我们这样做不是为自己服务,而是为自己人服务的时候。

For me, it was that search for greater purpose that brought me to Apple in the first place. I had a comfortable job at a company called Compaq that at the time looked like it was going to be on top forever. As it turns out, most of you are probably too young to even remember its name. But in 1998, Steve Jobs convinced me to leave Compaq behind to join a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy. They made computers, but at that moment at least, people weren't interested in buying them. Steve had a plan to change things. And I wanted to be a part of it.

对我来说,正是为了追求更伟大的目标,我才第一次来到苹果。我曾在一家叫康柏(Compaq)的公司找到了一份舒适的工作,在当时看来,这份工作将永远是的工作。事实证明,你们中的大多数人可能还太年轻,甚至不记得它的名字。但在1998年,史蒂夫-乔布斯说服我离开康柏,加入一家濒临破产的苹果公司。他们制造电脑,但至少在那一刻,人们对购买这些电脑并不感兴趣。史蒂夫有个改变一切的计划。我也想成为其中的一员。

It wasn't just about the iMac, or the iPod, or everything that came after. It was about the values that brought these inventions to life. The idea that putting powerful tools in the hands of everyday people helps unleash creativity and move humanity forward. That we can build things that help us imagine a better world and then make it real.

这不仅仅是iMac,或者iPod,或者之后的一切,而是使这些发明创意复活的价值观念。把强大的工具放在普通人手中将有助于释放创造力和推动人类向前发展。我们可以建造一些东西来帮助我们想象一个更美好的世界,然后让它成为现实。

There's a saying that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. At Apple, I learned that's a total crock. You'll work harder than you ever thought possible, but the tools will feel light in your hands. As you go out into the world, don't waste time on problems that have been solved. Don't get hung up on what other people say is practical. Instead, steer your ship into the choppy seas. Look for the rough spots, the problems that seem too big, the complexities that other people are content to work around. It's in those places that you will find your purpose. It's there that you can make your greatest contribution. Whatever you do, don't make the mistake of being too cautious. Don't assume that by staying put, the ground won't move beneath your feet. The status quo simply won't last. So get to work on building something better.

有句谚语说,如果你做你喜欢做的事,你的人生中将永远不会有一天是在工作。在苹果公司,我知道了这是一个彻头彻尾的谎言。你会比你想象的更努力工作,但你却一点也不觉得费劲。当你走进这个世界的时候,不要把时间浪费在已经解决的问题上。不要为别人所说的是实际的情况而心烦意乱。相反,引导你的船进入波涛汹涌的大海。寻找那些蛮荒之地,那些看起来还很难解决的问题,那些其他人乐于解决的复杂问题。在那些地方,你会找到你的目标。在那里你可以做出你的贡献。无论你做什么,都不要犯太谨慎的错误。不要以为原地不动,地面就不会在你脚下移动。现状根本不会持久。所以开始做些更好的事吧。

In some important ways, my generation has failed you in this regard. We spent too much time debating. We've been too focused on the fight and not focused enough on progress. And you don't need to look far to find an example of that failure. Here today, in this very place, in an arena where thousands once found desperate shelter from a 100-year disaster, the kind that seem to be happening more and more frequently, I don't think we can talk about who we are as people and what we owe to one another without talking about climate change.

在某些重要的方面,我们这代人辜负了你们。我们花了太多时间辩论。我们一直太专注于斗争,而没有把足够的注意力放在进步上。你不需要看太远就能找到失败的例子。今天,就在这个地方,在这个成千上万人曾经绝望地躲避百年灾难的地方,这种灾难似乎变得越来越频繁。我认为,如果我们不谈论气候变化,我们就无法谈论我们是谁,以及我们彼此亏欠了什么。

(applause) Thank you. Thank you.

谢谢!谢谢!

This problem doesn't get any easier based on whose side wins or loses an election. It's about who has won life's lottery and has the luxury of ignoring this issue and who stands to lose everything. The coastal communities, including some right here in Louisiana, that are already making plans to leave behind the places they've called home for generations and head for higher ground. The fishermen whose nets come up empty. The wildlife preserves with less wildlife to preserve. The marginalized, for whom a natural disaster can mean enduring poverty.

这个问题不会因为谁胜谁负而变得简单,这是一个关乎谁赢了人生彩票、谁有忽视这个问题的能力、谁会失去一切的问题。沿海社区,包括路易斯安那州的一些社区,已经在计划离开世代以来被称为“家园”的地方,前往更海拔更高地方。如今渔民的渔网空空如也、野生动物生计萧条。对于生存在边缘地区的人来说,自然灾害往往就意味着持久的贫困。

Just ask Tulane's own Molly Keogh, who's getting her Ph.D. this weekend. Her important new research shows that rising sea levels are devastating areas of Southern Louisiana more dramatically than anyone expected. Tulane graduates, these are people's homes. Their livelihoods. The land where their grandparents were born, lived, and died.

问问杜兰大学的莫莉·基奥(Molly Keogh)就知道了,她这个周末就要拿到博士学位了。她的一项重要新研究表明,海平面上升对路易斯安那州南部地区造成的破坏比任何人预想的都要严重。杜兰大学的毕业生们,这些地方都是人们的家园、他们的生计、他们祖父母出生、生活和去世的地方。

When we talk about climate change or any issue with human costs, and there are many, I challenge you to look for those who have the most to lose and find the real, true empathy that comes from something shared. That is really what we owe one another. When you do that, the political noise dies down, and you can feel your feet firmly planted on solid ground. After all, we don't build monuments to trolls, and we're not going to start now.

当我们谈论气候变化或任何与人类成本有关的问题时,我有很多问题希望你们能够着手去做:去寻找那些因此损失的人,并从一些共同的东西中找到真正的、真正的同理心,这才是我们真正亏欠彼此的东西。当你这样做的时候,政治上的喧嚣就会平息下来,你会感到自己的脚牢牢地踩在了坚实的土地上。毕竟,我们从来不为巨魔建造纪念碑,也不会现在开创这个先例。

If you find yourself spending more time fighting than getting to work, stop and ask yourself who benefits from all the chaos. There are some who would like you to believe that the only way that you can be strong is by bulldozing those who disagree or never giving them a chance to say their peace in the first place. That the only way you can build your own accomplishments is by tearing down the other side.

如果你发现自己花在斗争上的时间比上班的时间还多。那么停下来,问问自己谁能从所有这些混乱中受益。有些人想让你相信,你能变得强大的方法,就是制服那些不同意你观点的人,或者从一开始就不给他们机会表达自己的机会。他们想让你相信,你能成就自己的方法就是摧毁对方。

We forget sometimes that our preexisting beliefs have their own force of gravity. Today, certain algorithms pull toward you the things you already know, believe, or like, and they push away everything else. Push back. It shouldn't be this way. But in 20xx, opening your eyes and seeing things in a new way can be a revolutionary act. Summon the courage not just to hear but to listen. Not just to act, but to act together.

我们有时会忘记,我们先前存在的信念有其自身的引力。今天,某些算法会把你已经知道、相信或喜欢的东西主动拉向你,而把其他的东西推开,但事情本不应该如此。然而在20xx年,睁开眼睛、以一种全新方式看待事物可能是一种革命性的行为。你不仅要鼓起勇气去听,还要有勇气去听。不仅仅是行动,而是要一起行动。

It can sometimes feel like the odds are stacked against you, that it isn't worth it, that the critics are too persistent and the problems are too great. But the solutions to our problems begin on a human scale with building a shared understanding of the work ahead and with undertaking it together. At the very least, we owe it to each other to try.

有时候你会觉得机会对你不利、觉得这么做不值得、觉得批评之声太过顽固,亦或觉得问题太大(超出了自己的处理能力)。但是,解决我们当下问题的办法首先就是在人类范畴内建立对今后工作的共同理解,并着手共同解决这一问题。至少,我们也应该放手一搏。

It's worked before. In 1932, the American economy was in a free-fall. Twelve million people were unemployed, and conventional wisdom said the only thing to do was to ride it out, wait, and hope that things would turn around. But the governor of New York, a rising star named Franklin Roosevelt, refused to wait. He challenged the status quo and called for action. He needed people to stop their rosy thinking, face the facts, pull together, and help themselves out of a jam.

这样的方式在之前曾成功过。1932年,当时的美国经济一落千丈,有1200万人失业。传统观点认为,我们能做的就是撑过这段时间、等待,并希望情况会有所好转。但当时政途冉冉升起的纽约州州长富兰克林o罗斯福(Franklin Roosevelt,后就任美国第32任总统,美国历连任超过两届的总统)拒绝等待。他敢于挑战现状,呼吁采取行动。他呼吁人们停止继续抱有乐观的想法,面对现实、齐心协力,帮助自己摆脱困境。

He said: "The country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it and try another. But above all, try something."

他说:“这个国家需要一些大胆、持续的尝试。采取一种方法并加以尝试是再正常不过的事情。如果失败了,我们就承认失败,然后再试一次。但最重要的是,我们需要尝试一些东西。”

This was a speech to college students fearful about their future in an uncertain world. He said: "Yours is not the task of making your way in the world, but the task of remaking the world."

这是一场对大学生的演讲,他们担心自己在一个不确定世界里的未来。他(罗斯福)说:“你们的任务不是在世界上开辟自己的道路,而是改造世界。”

The audacious empathy of young people, the spirit that says we should live not just for ourselves, but for our own. That's the way forward. From climate change to immigration, from criminal justice reform to economic opportunity, be motivated by your duty to build a better world. Young people have changed the course of history time and time again. And now it's time to change it once more.

年轻人无畏的同情心告诉我们,我们不仅要为努力生活,而且要为自己而活。这是一条前进的道路,从气候变化到移民、从刑事司法改革到经济机遇,我们都要以建设一个更美好世界的责任为动力。此前的年轻人一次又一次地改变了历史的进程,现在是时候再次改变了。

I know, I know the urgency of that truth is with you today. Feel big because no one can make you feel small. Feel brave because the challenges we face are great but you are greater. And feel grateful because someone sacrificed to make this moment possible for you. You have clear eyes and a long life to use them. And here in this stadium, I can feel your courage.

我知道,今天你们所接触到真相带来的紧迫性。大胆一些,因为没有人能让你感到弱小。勇敢一些,因为我们面临的挑战是巨大的,但你们将更加伟大。懂得感恩,因为已经有人为你们生活在的当下做出了牺牲,让这一刻成为可能。你们拥有一对清澈的眼睛,人生的道路也还很长。在这个体育场,我能感受到你们的勇气。

Call upon your grit. Try something. You may succeed. You may fail. But make it your life's work to remake the world because there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than working to leave something better for humanity.

呼唤你的勇气。尝试,你可能会成功,也可能会失败。但是,请让改造世界成为你自己的人生工作,因为没有什么比为人类留下更好的东西更具价值。

Thank you very much, and congratulations class of 20xx!

非常感谢,祝贺20xx届的毕业生们!

Wang Leehom Speech @Berklee College of Music - YouTube

王力宏伯克利音乐学院演讲

I don't know what to say. I didn't know that there would be a podium with a microphone. I thought I would just be singing songs. Not to downplay that, but ...

我不知说什么好了。我不知道这边有一个带麦克风的讲台。我还以为只要唱几首歌就好了。不是说那不重要。

Oh, my goodness, what an honor. I am just so humbled and excited to be here looking out at all of you.

哦,我的老天,多么大的一份荣誉。在这里看着大家,我既诚惶诚恐,又激动万分。

Being back here on campus is ... I feel so proud to have studied here. And ... that's 16 years ago, but ... I used to come to Symphony Hall every weekend and get those rush tickets, the student packs, and watch the Boston Symphony Orchestra perform as often as possible, often by myself.

重新回到这里真的是…我为自己曾在此学习过而感到自豪。已经是16年前了,但是…我以前经常一个人在周末来到交响乐大厅,抢一些所谓的“赶急票”,来欣赏波士顿交响乐团的表演。

And it was one of the highlights of my time here at Berklee, so being here on stage is really unreal. Walking around on campus today was a testament to how far Berklee's come in the last 16 years. It is beautiful, the campus, the facilities. I was walking by the MP&E, the studios, the equipment, the fitness center. We didn't have any of these stuffs. So I guess you guys have been doing a pretty good job. So thank you, and congratulations to that. What a time for the East and West in music, in pop culture.

这是我在伯克利学习生活的众多亮点之一了,所以能来到这个台上实属不易。今天我在校园漫步,感受到了母校在这16年间的变化之大。她太美了,无论是环境还是设施。我还路过MP&E,那些工作室,一些设施,对了还有一个健身中心。我们那会儿可没有这玩意儿。所以校方的努力非常的棒,谢谢你们,也祝贺你们。这是一个东西方在音乐、流行文化中交流的伟大时代。

All of you, music lovers, future musicians, future professional musicians on the stage, and like what Roger just said, it's so important for us to be ambassadors, to be that bridge, to be ambassadors of peace, and breaking down the walls, bringing people together. Last night ... this is an issue that's so close in my heart, because last night in Los Angeles, my dear friend Jackie Chan was the first person ... first Chinese actor ever to win an Oscar, last night! I just want to thank all of you for being here, that's why we make music, is to connect with people.

在座的各位,无论你是音乐发烧友、未来的音乐人,还是未来专业的舞台表演音乐家,就像Roger刚所说的,我们要成为大使,这一点非常重要。我们要成为沟通东西方的桥梁,成为和平的使者,我们要消除阻碍,把人和人连接起来。对了,跟大家说一件很激动人心的事情,昨天晚上在洛杉矶,我的好朋友成龙大哥成为了第一个获得奥斯卡小金人的中国演员,就在昨天晚上。真的感谢大家今天来到这儿,这也是让我做音乐的原因—把人连接起来。

I've never written a song without loving it myself. So for all of you musicians, always follow your heart and always do what you love. I've definitely ... you know ... never convince yourself that what other people are telling you to do is right if you don't feel like it's right in your heart. As a musician, it just doesn't work.

我对我写的每一首歌都很喜欢,没有不喜欢的。所以,各位音乐人,请跟随自己的心,做自己爱做的事。如果你内心不认可的事情,那么无论别人怎么说,你都别动摇。作为一个音乐人,不这么做是行不通的。

So work like a bull, I guess ... and always have fun. And all the accolades don't mean anything without your friends and your family to share with. So Thank You to them as well for being here together, and always.

最后,像老黄牛一样工作,并且保持快乐。另外,我还想说,如果你不能把这份快乐跟你的朋友、家人分享的话,那么所有的赞美都是没有意义的。所以,我要感谢今天出席典礼的朋友和家人。

Chinese cities should close schools, cut working hours and stop outdoor activities during the most severe spells of air pollution, the ministry of environmental protection has said.

"Every possible compulsory measure" must be taken to cut emissions during the heaviest smog – including suspending factory production and imposing traffic restrictions.

The ministry's guidelines, issued in a circular, come as China grapples with frequent choking smog in its big cities, a consequence of years of breakneck economic growth that has fuelled public anger.

State media recently reported that an eight-year-old girl who lived near a busy thoroughfare in the coastal province of Jiangsu had been diagnosed with lung cancer. The case of the girl, believed to be the country's youngest lung cancer patient, has sparked a public outcry.

Despite frequent calls for cutting pollution over recent years, and growing public anger, the problem has only got worse. Schools and workplaces typically operate as normal in all but the most severe smog, even when it reaches hazardous levels.

Primary and middle schools suspended classes last month in the north-east city of Harbin during a smog emergency. The airport and some bus routes were also closed.

China must also toughen anti-pollution measures on industry and reduce its dependence on coal, which produces more than three-quarters of the country's electricity, the environment ministry said.

Public security departments should also toughen checks on vehicles, including phasing out older ones, and ensure there are not too many on the roads, it said.

China said in September it would slash coal consumption and shut down polluting mills, factories and smelters, though experts have said implementing the measures would prove difficult.

Air pollution is expected to worsen this winter because of a chronic natural gas shortage.

When I was 27 years old, I left a very demanding job in management consulting for a job that was even more demanding: teaching. I went to teach seventh graders math in the New York City public schools. And like any teacher, I made quizzes and tests. I gave out homework assignments. When the work came back, I calculated grades.

What struck me was that I.Q. was not the only difference between my best and my worst students. Some of my strongest performers did not have stratospheric I.Q. scores. Some of my smartest kids weren't doing so well.

And that got me thinking. The kinds of things you need to learn in seventh grade math, sure, they're hard: ratios, decimals, the area of a parallelogram. But these concepts are not impossible, and I was firmly convinced that every one of my students could learn the material if they worked hard and long enough.

After several more years of teaching, I came to the conclusion that what we need in education is a much better understanding of students and learning from a motivational perspective, from a psychological perspective. In education, the one thing we know how to measure best is I.Q., but what if doing well in school and in life depends on much more than your ability to learn quickly and easily?

So I left the classroom, and I went to graduate school to become a psychologist. I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings, and in every study my question was, who is successful here and why? My research team and I went to West Point Military Academy. We tried to predict which cadets would stay in military training and which would drop out. We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would advance farthest in competition. We studied rookie teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which teachers are still going to be here in teaching by the end of the school year, and of those, who will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students? We partnered with private companies, asking, which of these salespeople is going to keep their jobs? And who's going to earn the most money? In all those very different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success. And it wasn't social intelligence. It wasn't good looks, physical health, and it wasn't I.Q. It was grit.

Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.

A few years ago, I started studying grit in the Chicago public schools. I asked thousands of high school juniors to take grit questionnaires, and then waited around more than a year to see who would graduate. Turns out that grittier kids were significantly more likely to graduate, even when I matched them on every characteristic I could measure, things like family income, standardized achievement test scores, even how safe kids felt when they were at school. So it's not just at West Point or the National Spelling Bee that grit matters. It's also in school, especially for kids at risk for dropping out. To me, the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows, about building it. Every day, parents and teachers ask me, "How do I build grit in kids? What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic? How do I keep them motivated for the long run?" The honest answer is, I don't know. (Laughter) What I do know is that talent doesn't make you gritty. Our data show very clearly that there are many talented individuals who simply do not follow through on their commitments. In fact, in our data, grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent.

So far, the best idea I've heard about building grit in kids is something called "growth mindset." This is an idea developed at Stanford University by Carol Dweck, and it is the belief that the ability to learn is not fixed, that it can change with your effort. Dr. Dweck has shown that when kids read and learn about the brain and how it changes and grows in response to challenge, they're much more likely to persevere when they fail, because they don't believe that failure is a permanent condition.

So growth mindset is a great idea for building grit. But we need more. And that's where I'm going to end my remarks, because that's where we are. That's the work that stands before us. We need to take our best ideas, our strongest intuitions, and we need to test them. We need to measure whether we've been successful, and we have to be willing to fail, to be wrong, to start over again with lessons learned.

In other words, we need to be gritty about getting our kids grittier.

Thank you.

(Applause)

In the summer recess between freshman and sophomore years in college, I wasinvited to be an instructor at a high school leadership camp hosted by a collegein Michigan. I was already highly involved in most campus activities, and Ijumped at the opportunity.

About an hour into the first day of camp, amid the frenzy of icebreakersand forced interactions, I first noticed the boy under the tree. He was smalland skinny, and his obvious discomfort and shyness made him appear frail andfragile. Only 50 feet away, 200 eager campers were bumping bodies, playing,joking and meeting each other, but the boy under the tree seemed to want to beanywhere other than where he was. The desperate loneliness he radiated almoststopped me from approaching him, but I remembered the instructions from thesenior staff to stay alert for campers who might feel left out.

As I walked toward him I said, “Hi, my name is Kevin and I’m one of thecounselors. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”

In a shaky, sheepish voice he reluctantly answered, “Okay, I guess.”

I calmly asked him if he wanted to join the activities and meet some newpeople. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”

I could sense that he was in a new world, that this whole experience wasforeign to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn’t be right to push him, either. Hedidn’t need a pep talk, he needed a friend. After several silent moments, myfirst interaction with the boy under the tree was over.

At lunch the next day, I found myself leading camp songs at the top of mylungs for 200 of my new friends. The campers were eagerly participated. My gazewandered over the mass of noise and movement and was caught by the image of theboy from under the tree, sitting alone, staring out the window. I nearly forgotthe words to the song I was supposed to be leading. At my first opportunity, Itried again, with the same questions as before: “How are you doing? Are youokay?”

To which he again replied, “Yeah, I’m all right. I just don’t really getinto this stuff. ”

As I left the cafeteria, I too realized this was going to take more timeand effort than I had thought — if it was even possible to get through to him atall.

That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my concerns about himknown. I explained to my fellow staff members my impression of him and askedthem to pay special attention and spend time with him when they could.

The days I spend at camp each year fly by faster than any others I haveknown. Thus, before I knew it, mid-week had dissolved into the final night ofcamp and I was chaperoning the “last dance”. The students were doing all theycould to savor every last moment with their new “best friends” — friends theywould probably never see again.

As I watched the campers share their parting moments, I suddenly saw whatwould be one of the most vivid memories of my life. The boy from under the tree,who stared blankly out the kitchen window, was now a shirtless dancing wonder.He owned the dance floor as he and two girls proceeded to cut up a rug. Iwatched as he shared meaningful, intimate time with people at whom he couldn’teven look just days earlier. I couldn’t believe it was him. In October of mysophomore year, a late-night phone call pulled me away from my chemistry book. Asoft-spoken, unfamiliar voice asked politely, “Is Kevin there?”

“You’re talking to him. Who’s this?”

“This is Tom Johnson’s mom. Do you remember Tommy from leadership camp?”

The boy under the tree. How could I not remember? “Yes, I do”, I said.“He’s a very nice young man. How is he?”

An abnormally long pause followed, then Mrs. Johnson said, “My Tommy waswalking home from school this week when he was hit by a car and killed.”Shocked, I offered my condolences.

“I just wanted to call you”, she said, “because Tommy mentioned you so manytimes. I wanted you to know that he went back to school this fall withconfidence. He made new friends. His grades went up. And he even went out on afew dates. I just wanted to thank you for making a difference for Tom. The lastfew months were the best few months of his life.”

In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of yourself everyday. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tellthis story as often as I can, and when I do, I urge others to look out for theirown “boy under the tree.”

在大一到大二之间的那个暑假,密歇根的一所大学主办一次中学学生干部夏令营,邀我担任辅导员。对于校园的多数活动,我都持赞同态度并积极参与,那次我同样欣然接受了。

头一天活动进行大约一个钟头,我注意到,开始活跃的营员们兴致浓厚,不太自然地互动起来,而树下却有一个孤零零的男孩。他身材矮小,瘦弱不堪,那明显的不安和羞怯使他显得不堪一击。在只有五十英尺远的地方,二百名充满激情的营员正在玩耍、开玩笑并互作介绍,而树下的男孩似乎除了想呆在原地,不想去任何地方。他流露出的极度孤独令我几乎难以靠近,但我没忘记资深辅导员们的提示:对可能感觉受到冷落的营员要保持警惕。

我走向那个男孩,对他说:“嗨!我叫凯文,是你们的辅导员。很高兴认识你,你好吗?”

带着颤抖的怯生生的声音,他勉强答道:“我想——还好吧。”

我平静地问他想不想投入到那些活动从而结识一些人,他轻声回答:“不,那不关我的事。”

我能感觉到他在面对一个新的环境,这种体验对他来说是全然陌生的。也不知为什么,我觉得强迫他加入也不妥当。他不需要鼓励性的讲,他需要的是朋友。几次沉默之后,我和树下男孩的接触就此结束。

第二天吃午饭的时候,我扯开嗓门,领着二百名刚认识的新朋友唱起了营歌。营员们都热情参与,我的目光游移于这群人,忽然那个“树下男孩”的样子吸引了我的注意:他孤零零地坐着,眼瞅着窗外。我几乎忘记了领唱的歌词。只要一有机会,我就会照旧用那些话问他:“你怎么样?你好吗?”

他的回答依然是:“嗯,我很好。我真地不想参与那种事儿。”

我离开自助餐厅的时候充分认识到,扭转这种状况所需的时间和所做的努力要比我想像的要多——即便是在能让他彻底“迷途知返”的情况下。

在当晚的全体工作人员会议上,我告诉了他们我对他的担忧。我向同事们说明他给我留下的印象,请求他们对他给以特别的关注,并尽可能花时间和他在一起。

每年我在营地度过的日子总是一晃而过,感觉比其它时间过得快。这次同样如此。我还没明白过来,星期三已成过去,露营的最后一晚来到了。我伴随营员们跳起“最后的舞蹈”。学生们都在竭力品味跟新“挚友”在一起的最后每一刻——他们或许以后再也见不到面了。

营员们共度这难忘的分别时刻,这时我突然目睹了我一生都记忆最清晰的一幕:那个曾透过厨房窗户茫然盯着外面的树下男孩,此时却成了不穿衬衫的跳舞奇才。他和两个女孩跳着摇摆舞,在舞池里到处舞动。我注视着他跟大家共享这亲密无间又意义深长的时刻,而仅仅几天前他却对他们连瞧也不瞧一眼。判若两人,让我无法相信。

我大二那年的十月,深夜的一个电话让我放下化学课本,一个柔和却生疏的声音彬彬有礼地问道:

“凯文在吗?”

“我就是,您是哪位?”

“我是汤姆?约翰逊的母亲,您还记得那个参加夏令营的汤米吗?”

树下的那个男孩,我怎么会不记得呢?

“我记得。”我说,“他是个很不错的小伙子,他现在情况怎么样?”

长长的反常沉默过后,约翰逊夫人又说道:“汤米这个星期从学校回家的时候,一辆汽车撞了他使他辞别人世。”我感到震惊,向她表示我的哀悼。

“我给您打电话,”她说,“只因为汤米好多次说起过您。我想让您知道,他今年秋季返校时有了自信心,交了新朋友,学习成绩提高了,甚至还出去约会过几次。我只想表达我的感激之情,因为是您改变了他。最后的这几个月是他度过的生命中最美好的时光。”

在那一刻,我意识到,你每天奉献出一点点还是容易得很,你可能永远都不知道你的举动对他人的影响有多大。我常常讲起这个故事,每当讲起的时候,我总是力劝别人也注意一下他们自己的“树下男孩”。
