Dear teachers and fellow students,Everybody is good!
"Firecrackers in New Year's Eve, spring breeze into the toso. Find Tong Tong, always put the new peach in the old character ", this poem describes the scene of the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival, commonly known as the Chinese New Year, is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the most solemn traditional Festival of the Chinese nation, since the period of Yu Shun, has been more than 4000 years of history.
Spring Festival day is also the most lively day of the year, everywhere can be seen with fireworks chasing children; Strangers met will also look at each other smile each other a happy New Year; Streets and alleys are decorated with lights, couplets are posted on every door, and even every tree by the river is covered with red lanterns, as if the whole city is integrated into the happy atmosphere of the New Year.
At home, my grandmother and mother are busy in the kitchen preparing the dinner for New Year's Eve, while the men are responsible for hanging lanterns on every small tree in the yard. Wait until the dinner time, the whole family sit together, while eating the rich dinner on the table, while telling the fun of the past year, the younger generation will toast to the elders, send each other the most sincere New Year wishes. At the same time out of the window, the sound of smoke exploding bamboo rose and fell, standing on the balcony to see, a colorful spark across the dark night sky, is fleeting, is also continuous. Look far, the whole city is brightly lit, is the lamp world, the lamp ocean; Like fairies scattered flowers, like stars.
Once I often ask adults what is the flavor of the New Year, but now I think the interpretation of the flavor of the New Year is varied, but my favorite is the family reunion together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, streets decorated with lights, people laugh and smile, word of mouth happy New Year.
Thank you!

Before, I would be willing to celebrate the festival, especially the Spring Festival and the Mid Autumn Festival. However, this years Spring Festival is not the same as in previous years.
Before the new year, because of the severe snow disaster in the south, many uncles and aunts did not rest on the Spring Festival and insisted on their jobs. My father didnt go home for the Spring Festival during the Spring Festival. He insisted on the first line of coal mine production, for more coal and overtime work to support the coal in the south. Coal miners made their contributions to the production and life in the south. Although my father could not go home with us for the new year, I was very happy, and I was proud of him.
At eight p. m. thirty in the year, my mother and I sat on the couch to watch the Spring Festival. How wonderful the Spring Festival Gala is! Talk about the crosstalk, sing and sing in a moment, and dance in a moment. Its really busy! All of a sudden, mom asked me what I wanted in 20xx. I replied, "in 20xx, my wish is：study hard and make progress every day. I will make a careful and conscientious friend. I will become an excellent young pioneer.
Chinese New Year Celebration is the most important celebration of the year. Chinese people may celebrate the Chinese New Year in slightly different ways but their wishes are almost the same; they want their.
Chinese New Year Celebration usually lasts for 15 days. Celebratory activities include Chinese New Feast, firecrackers, giving lucky money to children, the New Year bell ringing and Chinese New Year Greetings. Most of Chinese people will stop the celebrating in their home on the 7th day of New Year because the national holiday usually ends around that day, however celebrations New Year.
People away from home have come back from all sides to get together with their relatives. People who have been busy for a year have stopped to enjoy the results of their work. It is easy to put down the tension of the first semester of junior high school, and my mood is also very happy.
On the thirty, every family was hung with red lanterns and red China knot, paste the full of hopes and blessings of the antithetical couplet symbol New Year paintings, everywhere filled with joy. Remember the Spring Festival, not the rain or snow, sometimes the frozen people shrink and shrink their hands. This week, Gods smile, we can taste the warm warm day, relax in the sun, and even shows several niujin.
"The adult is looking forward to the field, the child is looking forward to the year". The words are not false. The new year is the most happy when a child! That year, my father bought me a lot of fireworks, my mother bought a new pair of basketball shoes for my uncle, sent a skateboard to me, grandma also secretly honestly gift money to me, the best new year still can enjoy the play. Show the nature of his childhood.
In this sound and laughter, time flies silently. "Five, four, three, two, one, zero! TV bell sound and put us into the new year. Suddenly, countless fireworks like a blossoming flowers bloom in the air a riot of colours, the sporadic streamer seemed to the city and village and all things for the baptism of the spring, also gives us a good omen! In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival holiday will be full, in retrospect, I have to sincerely lamented:! Really happy new year!
My name is Jie Lidi. Today, my topic is: “Confidence”. As we all know, failure is the mother of success. But What I want to say is that success is the child of confidence. Without confidence, things can become negative and uncomfortable. I remember, during an English class, I wanted to make a sentence using the word "listen". I should have said: "I listen to the Voice of America" but I was too nervous and said "I listen to the Noise of America". Everybody in the class laughed. Since then I wanted to train myself to be confident. Now, confidence makes me brave and courageous. Take this speech for example. I wanted to enter this competition, but I would feel very embarrassed if I made mistakes. Just then, I thought about my dream. My dream is to become a scientist when I grow up. If I am not confident, how can I overcome difficulties I face? If I am not confident, how can I succeed in developing myself in the future? I will do it! Today, I am making a speech in public and I feel proud and confident!
I am sure, in the future, with confidence, I will go forward-always forward. Confidence will make my dreams come true!
Thank you!

Every parents is very fond of his children, my parents is not exceptionalalso. My thing has my parental care a lot of, among them two things, of my for along time imprint in the heart. Once, I and father go into the street shop, thething on the street is too much really,
I am absorbed in skipping repeatedly belt jump ground edge walks along anedge to look, which still consider the car on the side! Abrupt, an a sudden bigstride forward develops father to pull me toward the side, I am tooting themouth, blame father grouchily.
Father tells me: "A moment ago on the side had sailed an autocycle, if youreturn the past 2 centimeters, your small order with respect to one cannot sayfor sure. " at this moment, I feel father is so great, tear is abrupt anexcessive is full my orbit. relatively father loves darkly then, maternal loveappears particularly meticulous, warm.
A Brother Like That A Brother Like That A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. "Is this your car, Mister?"
he said. Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas."
The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ."
He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish,"
the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?"
the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sathim down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about."
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "

哥哥的心愿圣诞节时，保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车。圣诞节当天，保罗离开办公室时，一个男孩绕着那辆闪闪发亮的新车，十分赞叹地问：
"先生，这是你的车?"
保罗点点头："这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。"男孩满脸惊讶，支支吾吾地说："你是说这是你哥送的礼物，没花你一分钱?天哪，我真希望也能……"
保罗当然知道男孩他真想希望什么。他希望能有一个象那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话却完全出乎了保罗的意料。
"我希望自己能成为送车给弟弟的哥哥。"男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩，冲口而出地说："你要不要坐我的车去兜风?"
"哦，当然好了，我太想坐了!"
车开了一小段路后，那孩子转过头来，眼睛闪闪发亮，对我说："先生，你能不能把车子开到我家门前?"
保罗微笑，他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀，让大家知道他坐了一部大轿车回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。"你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前?"男孩要求道。
男孩跑上了阶梯，过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了，但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来把他跛脚的弟弟带出来了，将他安置在第一个台阶上，紧紧地抱着他，指着那辆新车。
只听那男孩告诉弟弟："你看，这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是保罗他哥哥送给他的哦!将来我也会送给你一辆像这样的车，到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时，挂窗口上的漂亮饰品了，就象我告诉过你的那样。"
保罗走下车子，把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子，坐在弟弟的身旁。就这样他们三人开始一次令人难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜，保罗才真正体会主耶稣所说的"施比受更有福"的道理。

my dream
everyone has a dream. i often ask myself. when i was a little boy, i wanted to be a soldier with a gun so that i could defend our motherland.now i am a young boy with a new dream——to be a doctor. i want to be a famous doctor, helping the sick and saving their lives.
i also saw some people who were suffering and dying of ill-nesses. i made up my mind to become a doctor, so that i can help the sick people and cure them of their diseases. china is a develop-ing country. she needs good medicine and good doctors, especially in the countryside and lonely villages.
i want to try my best to help the poor sick people of our country. i want to let them have an opportunity to receive excel-lent treatments for their illnesses without having to pay much or any money.
It is 20 years since the City of Taizhou was set up. Our city has become richer and people feel happier. Recently, all of us are talking about how to be civilized students in our .school.
In my opinion, we should be polite to our parents and help them do more housework at home. At school, we should respect our teachers, get on well with our classmates and study hard. We should also obey traffic rules. When the traffic lights are red, we should stop. When we wait for a bus, we should wait in line. Don't throw litter or spit in public. And we'd better not talk or laugh loudly. We should never say dirty words. Be friendly to others and always ready to help the people in need.
If everyone behaves well, our city will be more beautiful and more attractive.
Let's join together to be civilized students!
My favourite season is spring.Spring is a lovely season,I think.There is agarden behind my house.In spring,the trees become green and the flowers give offfragrance.There are many butterflies and bees over the flowers.The butterfliesare dancing and the bees are singing.Sometimes it rains.It usually rainsquietly.The rain moistens the trees and the flowers.I think they may say,“We’revery thirsty.The rain is very good.It can help us.” What a beautiful scene!
我最喜欢的季节是春天.我觉得春天是个可爱的季节.在我家后门有个花园.在春天,树变绿了,花也散发着芳香.有许多蝴蝶和蜜蜂在花丛中飞舞.蝴蝶在跳舞,蜜蜂在歌唱.有时候,中国教育总网文档频道文会下雨,常常都是下得轻轻的.雨水滋润了树木和花朵.我想他们会说,“我们好渴,这雨水真是及时.”真是一幅美丽的画面!
failure is so common in our life. no one can avoid it. when we fail in doing something, we often feel so depressed that we have no interest in other things. sometimes failure can also make us lose heart. therefore, no one wants to be a failure.
success is what we all hope for, because it can bring us a sense of pride and a good reputation. the moment we succeed, we always feel so proud, as if having everything in our hands. if one enjoys his continuous success in his career, he will be famous and worshiped by others.
however, failure is the mother of success. one failure doesn’t mean you can never be successful. it depends on what we do to deal with failure. those who are always afraid of failure and can’t go through it will never win. but as long as we can get some lessons and experience from our failure, we’ll be sure to succeed.
One would think that a person make out will be very cool, actually otherwise, when you are in a great deal of frustration, you will understand the importance of the partners, the value of cooperation.
Points, is separated. When you asked a friend dear John, have you ever thought about, how many friends you have. When you are lonely, have you ever thought how much you have true friends. True friends, when you are sad comfort you, and will encourage you when you lost, will help you, when you difficult will indicate the direction for you when you are lost, so, just a "friend". When parents sick in bed, but swept flatly, cut off the last hope of life, the parents this is not only the irreverent to life, also reflects the inner evil.
When you fail, have you ever thought that you need someone to comfort, points, representing the loneliness and fragile, left the group of geese fly is not far, only to return to his, can play to their ability.
Close, is cooperation. Cooperation is one of the magic weapon of the successful people. People has the inherent potential, this potential to succeed may be one person, but this potential only under special circumstances will burst into its own power. The human potential, the most powerful, the most easy to use, is cooperation. Successful cooperation can create infinite wealth, has the material wealth and spiritual wealth, and contribute to people's wealth.
A man without a friend, leave the inner goodness, cannot leave the cooperation, cannot leave the most is the human nature.
有人会认为一个人在外闯荡会很酷，其实不然，当你在遭受莫大的挫折后，你就会了解到伙伴的重要，合作的可贵。
分，就是分离。当你向朋友提出绝交的时候，你是否考虑过，自己到底还有多少朋友。当你孤独的时候，你是否想过你有多少真正的朋友。真正的朋友，会在你伤心的时候安慰你，会在你失落时鼓励你，会在你困难时帮助你，会在你迷惘的时候为你指明方向，如此，才可谓“益友”。当父母病重在床是，游子却断然离去，掐断了父母对生命最后的希冀，这不仅是对生命的大不敬，还反映了人内心的邪恶。
当你失败时，你可曾想过你需要一个人来安慰，分，代表着孤独与脆弱，离开了群体的大雁是飞不远的，只有回归雁群，才能发挥自己的能力。
合，便是合作。合作是人制胜的法宝之一。人有与生俱来的潜力，这种潜力能是一个人获得成功，但这种潜力只有在特殊情况下才会爆发出它自己的力量。而人的潜力中，最强大，最容易使用的，就是合作。成功的合作可以创造无穷的财富，有物质上的财富，有精神上的财富，还有贡献给人们的财富
In today's fast-paced world and with the booming economy, stress is our constant companion. We may face stress from our jobs, families, peers, etc. Though stress adds flavor and challenge to life, too much stress can seriously affect people's physical and mental well-being, so it is necessary to handle stress properly.
When it comes to reducing stress, people vary in their ways. Some people talk with someone, perhaps a friend or a family member, about their anxieties and worries. Others allow themselves a mental “get-away”: a quiet country scene painted mentally can pert them from the tension of a stressful situation to a more relaxing frame of mind. There are also people who create a sense of peace by reading a good book.
The effective way to relieve stress for me is different from those mentioned above. I have several relaxation techniques. For examples, when stress occurs, I would take a deep breath and exhale and if possible, I would take a warm bath. They prove to be very helpful. They help me to calm down my mind and improve my response.
Change the world? change ourselves
Good evening, honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen.
It’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world, change ourselves.
It’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected. not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ,because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture.
Frankly speaking, i don’t quite agree with them.Indeed, we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. (examples).but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture.
There are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china. on the one hand, some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful, such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc. on the other hand,the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china. overwhelmed by such a trend,chinese unconsciously get involved in western holidays and culture.
With the further development of the whole world, the cultural communication between different countries and nations becom faster and more and more important. we are indeed from different nations, but we are the citizens of the same world, so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth.the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no. what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture. only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture. only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us.
At last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ,that is:if you want to change the world, then you must change yourself first.”

改变世界?改变自己
晚上好，尊敬的评委，女士们，先生们。
我很高兴站在这里发表我的演讲改变世界，改变我们自己。
引人注目的是，西方的节日日益变得越来越流行，而中国的传统节日被冷落。不久前在北京大学和清华大学约10名医生宣布，我们应该拒绝入侵的西方节日，因为他们认为西方节日作为一种挑战我们的传统节日和文化。
坦白地说，我不完全同意他们。事实上，我们不应该忽视甚至抛弃我们的传统节日作为中国拥有辉煌的历史和灿烂的传统。但是为什么我们不能吸收有意义的西方节日和文化呢?。
有明显的原因，一些西方节日在中国如此受欢迎。另一方面，一些西方的节日，我们中国人不合理和有意义的事情，比如父亲节，四月的愚人节等，另一方面，普遍的全球化使得西方文化在中国盛行。在这种潮流的冲击下，中国人不知不觉地卷入了西方的节日和文化。
随着世界的发展，文化交流不同国家和民族之间变得更加快捷和更重要。我们来自不同的国家，但我们是公民相同的世界，所以不同的民族优秀文化是我们保护我们的传统文化在地球每个人的共有财产的唯一途径就是拒绝外国的文化吗?答案当然是否定的。我们应该做的是不遗余力地教育中国人去认识和珍惜我们灿烂的传统，而不是拒绝外国文化。只有通过教育，我们才能树立我们对文化的信心和信念。只有通过教育才能保持和提升的财富，我们的祖先留给我们。
最后我想说的一个著名的分享甘地和你们，那就是：如果你想改变世界，那么你必须改变你自己。”
“once upon a time，there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. to all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. one day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." well, you know the rest. the three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.
and the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "and they live happily every after."
why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, i would say, so unimaginative? how can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? because, i think, it is a typical success story. it is highly philosophical and symbolic. by implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.
the story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. the reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. if a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. the term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. but as i understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. to clarify my view, let me give another analogy.
if we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away david seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another david, namely david beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. if we further changed the rules by not allowing arsenal's defenders to defend, so that beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. in accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. the sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.
译文
“从前,有一个国王有一个女儿就像盛开的玫瑰一样美丽。所有追求者来到王宫里要求公主的手,老国王指派完成三个任务,每一个几乎不可能的。有一天,国王的宫殿是一个年轻英俊的王子……“嗯,你知道。不同版本的三个任务可能会有所不同,但主要情节总是相同的,得意地宣称王子公主的手。
和结局总是一样的,完成与行“每后,他们幸福地生活在一起。”
为什么不我们厌倦了一些幻想,不现实,我想说,如此缺乏想象力?故事怎么能这样忍受一代又一代的重复”?因为,我认为,这是一个典型的成功故事。它是高度哲学和象征性。通过暗示,我们看到一个分4步的成功的定义:1)所代表的一个目标是集美丽的公主;2)挑战,为代表的三个任务;3)克服困难的过程中,所代表的考验的青春经历,和4)成功的奖励,如所代表的`幸福的婚姻。
这个故事不仅迎合每个人的内心渴望成功,但也强调了过程和结果的不可分离性。成功的奖励会放大很多如果路径主要是危险的,反之亦然。如果一个人继承了他父亲的数百万和领导一个简单的生活,在物质财富方面他甚至不是一个成功的人,因为他没有困难参与实现富裕。“成功”这个词,可以肯定的是。不会坐着容易定义。但随着我的理解,成功的真正含义需要两者的结合的过程和满意的结果努力。阐明我的观点,让我给另一个类比。
如果我们改变了足球的规则,大大扩大了目标和打发大卫·希曼或任何其他守门员,这样另一个大卫,大卫·贝克汉姆,可以轻易得分,然后得分不会给他带来的成就感和快乐,兴奋。如果我们进一步改变了规则不允许阿森纳的后卫防守,所以贝克汉姆只需要抬起手指,脚趾,分数,然后就没有游戏,因为胜利的意义就会消失了。在接受挑战,克服困难,在忍受苦难,成功获得它的价值。成就的感觉不同比例的程度上克服困难。

Thank you Oxford, and thank you Oxford Union.
It is truly an honor and a privilege to be here todayand that you have afforded me this opportunity tospeak to you.
I must confess, I am somewhat mystified as to whyyou are here. Because there won't be any singing,any hip-shaking. What so ever.
So, how do I, a girl from Barranquilla, Colombia come to occupy the same stage as Newton andChurchill. Lord knows I'm no Mother Teresa, but here I am, nonetheless.
I realize that one point of view from which I can depart is that of an artist. After all, it is who Iam. We artists depend on our imaginations.
When I first learned I was coming, I thought about the past and I imagined the future. Fromyour minds, ideas will sprout that will give new shape to the world. I cannot help but fast-forward to what the world will be like in 50 years. What will be happening? Who will we be?What challenges can we overcome? How will we live?
DREAM——A word that has changed the world
Hello,everybody !it is my great honor to be here to share my idea with you .Today,I will talk something about DREAM——A word that has changed the world .
“What do you think is the word that has really changed our world ”
When I was asked about this question for the first time ,without thinking it too much ,a word flash into my mind ——DREAM ,D-R-E-A-M.People more or less dream about different things ,to be a teacher ,a doctor ,a scientist ,a businessman and so on .All these people who have dreams should be respected ,because Dreams make the world go around .We grow great by our dreams.All big men are great dreamers in their youth.Everyone has a dream ,and everything starts as one’s daydream.
Martin Luther king had a dream.He desired for a future where blacks and whites would coexist harmoniously as equals.By speaking the way he did,he educated,he inspired,he informed not just the people there,but people throughout America and unborn generations.He pushed forward the pace of American black society towards the racial equality .
Thomas Edison had a dream.He dreamed of a lamp that could be operated by electricity,began where he stood to put his dream into action,and despite more than ten thousand failures,he stood by that dream until he made it a physical reality!And today,his dream lights up the world at night.
Walt Disney had a dream.This,in itself,wasn't unusual -- he was always dreaming.He dreamed of making the first animated feature film,and of building an amusement park that parents could enjoy right along with their kids.Walt Disney empowered his dream and today,Disneyland,Disney world and Disney theme parks attract around the world thrill millions of visitors each and every year.
John F.kennedy had a dream.He wanted to land a man on the moon and return him safely to earth so as to restore faith in the American way of life.John F.kennedy empowered his dream and 8 years later Neil Armstrong stepped on the face of the moon.The moon landing certainly gave Americans new found confidence.
Dream --- A word that has changed the world Yes ,I would say so ,wouldn’t you
Youth is a special life relay station ,the growth with the worry ,the life feeling become aware happily with the dream ,collected a unique youth melody in here .
We decide.We choose.And as we decide and choose,so are our lives formed.In the end,forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.And most importantly ,You are the one you choose to be.
It is easy to waste our lives ,our days ,our minutes .It is easy to exist than living .So hold fast to your dreams,For if dreams die,life is a broken-winged bird,That cannot fly.Hold fast to your dreams,For when dreams go,life is a barren field,Frozen with snow.
梦--一个改变世界的词
大家好!我很荣幸能在这里和大家分享我的想法，今天我将谈论一个关于梦想的东西--一个改变世界的词。
“你认为什么是真正改变了我们世界的这个词呢”
当我被问到这个问题的时候，没有想太多，一个字闪进我的脑海——梦，d-r-e-a-m.people或多或少的梦想不同的东西，是一个教师，医生，科学家，商人等等。所有这些人的梦想都应该得到尊重，因为梦想让世界运转。我们增长我们的梦想伟大，所有的伟人都是在青年时期伟大的梦想家。每个人都有梦想，一切都开始作为一个的白日梦。
路德金做了一个梦，他希望给黑人和白人能和谐共处等。说他，他这样的教育，他深受启发，他通知不只是那里的人们，但全美国的人和未出生的后代，他推动了美国黑人社会的步伐走向种族平等。
爱迪生托马斯做了一个梦，他梦见一个能用电来供电的电灯，他开始在那里站着把自己的梦想付诸行动，尽管有一万多个失败，他站在那一个梦中，直到他成为现实!今天，他的梦想照亮了世界。
沃尔特迪士尼有一个梦想，这一点，在它本身并不寻常，他一直在做梦，他梦想制作第一部动画电影，并建设一个娱乐公园，父母可以享受与他们的孩子。
约翰肯尼迪做了一个梦，他想把人送上月球并返回他安全返回地球，恢复美国的生活方式的信念。约翰肯尼迪授权他的梦想，8年后尼尔阿姆斯壮踏上月球的脸。登月的确给了美国人的新发现的信心。
梦---一个改变世界的话是的，我会这样说，是不是你
青春是一个特殊的生命接力站，随着烦恼的成长，生活的感觉变得与梦的幸福感，在这里收集了一个独特的青春旋律。
我们决定，我们选择，并且当我们决定和选择，我们的生活也在我们的生活中，最终形成我们自己的命运是什么样的野心是什么，最重要的是，你是你选择的那个人。
我们的生活，我们的日子，我们的生活，很容易浪费我们的生命，很容易生存，所以坚持你的梦想，因为如果梦想死亡，生命是一只折断翅膀的鸟儿，不能飞翔。
Success is made up of one percent talent and ninety-nine percent effort.
The process of climbing is hard, but the scenery of the top is different than it in the bottom of the order to see the scenery of the top, we must overcome all difficulties bravely thing easy to say , but difficult to do. The peak looks so far away from our, the leg is so painful, and others say that, forget it, you can't climb up, quickly stop and rest.
So, the higher of the mountain, the fewer people. But, could we give up the scenery of the peak? although Success is far away, but there it is, it hands to us ,and encourage us to persist a while, the most beautiful scenery will belong to us. So, no matter how tired, no matter how hard, we still adhere to the teeth, until success. Like Chris Gardner, in order to survive, to his son, he works very hard, although so tired that even want to give up, but he knew, giving up is a thorough failure, means coming back to the origin, losting hope at the same time. You got a dream, you gonna protect it. When we at the most hard time, hold on for a moment, will be the most beautiful scenery.
Successful people will never give up after the storm, rather than born with the ability to got ks!
