Man’s life is a process of growing up, actually I’m standing here is a growth. If a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then I grow up along with these choices. Once I hope I can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know I come here, now I wonder what the future holds for (= what will happen to) me. 

When I come to this school, I told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. Following I will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job. 

Once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” I will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these process I will combine learning with doing. If I can achieve this “future”, I think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future. 

How to say future? Maybe it’s a nice wish. Lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.

in order to get high marks, some students figure out all the ways, theworse situation is to plagiarize other student’s hard-working. plagiarism is abig mistake, the teachers are always emphasizing it, but the lazy students goagainst the rule, they want to pass assessment easily. these students should beshameful about themselves.

on the one hand, plagiarizing means the lack of respect of other students’hard-working. students need to spend many hours and put a lot of effort tofinish the paper; the outcome means their wisdom and paid, just as the oldsaying, “no pain, no gain”. while the lazy students destroy other students’effort, they just get the job done without their own thinking; they can even getthe more high marks. this is very unfair; every student should finish the taskin their own wisdom, showing respect to each other.

on the other hand, the students who are used to plagiarism will end uphurting themselves. if the students’ such behavior is found by others, they willget bad record in their files, which means they will have problem on trustissues, it is hard for them to find a job. if they are lucky to not be found,they still learn nothing, they lack of ability.

in conclusion, plagiarism is a shameful behavior; students should learnthings by their own minds.

为了得到高分,一些学生找到一切门路,最坏的情形是剽窃其他同学的辛勤劳动成果。剽窃是很严重的错误,老师总是强调这点,但是懒惰的学生总是违反这个规则,他们想要轻易地通过评估。这样的学生应该为自己感到羞愧。

一方面,剽窃意味着对其他学生劳动成果的不尊重。学生需要花费很多时间和精力来完成论文,成果意味着他们的智慧和付出,就像古语有云,没有付出,就没有收获。然而懒惰的学生破坏了其他学生的劳动,他们完成工作不费吹灰之力,甚至还能拿到更高的分数。这是很不公平的,每个学生都应该用自己的智慧来完成任务,尊敬彼此。

另一方面,习惯剽窃的学生最终会伤害自己。如果学生的剽窃行为被别人发现,他们的档案上就会有不良记录,这意味着他们在诚信上有问题,很难找到工作。如果他们幸运不被发现,他们也没有学到东西,缺乏能力。

总的来说,剽窃是可耻的行为,学生应该用自己的脑子来学习东西。

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,

When I was little, I lived in a remote village in southern China with my grandparents. Like many kids in the countryside, I enjoyed digging a hole in the opening among paddy fields, using branches and hay to bake sweet potatoes and playing hawk-and-chicken with my friends. Every Chinese New Year Eve, my grandmother would prepare our festive food called Guo. It was a tradition that neighbors help each other prepare Guo. While adults were busy pouring flour on the cutting board, pressing the paste flat and moulding it into beautiful shape, kids would run around in the village’s ancestral temple and immerse ourselves in the enchanting and cheerful smell of holiday.

Having lived in the city for the following ten years, I always feel the changes happening in my hometown every time I go back--the village looks surprisingly similar to the coastal city where I live! The opening field where I baked potatoes was leveled and a manufacturing factory has been built there, blocking the sunlight of our yard. The ancestral temple has been torn down and is now a small supermarket for villagers. The number of people knowing how to prepare Guo is diminishing and young people seem to be more interested in fast food and oblivious of traditional arts and skills. The village seems quite empty because most young people have become migrant workers in cities and only return home once or twice a year.

In the course of urbanization, villages gradually languish and die out when the passing on of traditions lose its population base. The total number of Chinese villages has declined from 3.7 million in 20xx to 2.6 million in 20xx. Approximately 300 villages in China are disappearing every day. It’s saddening to see that many ancient villages, which survived warfare and natural disasters over thousands of years, have been demolished or annexed by cities in peacetime. Lulei Village, hometown for the famous mathematician, Chen Jingrun, was an affluent village in southern China with a history of over 700 years. Since the village obstructed the construction of the local railway station, it was almost torn down, including the former residence for Chen’s family.

We Chinese have been reveling in urbanization for decades. What worries me is that one day on this way to modernization, we turn back but are unable to see the link with our origins and ancestors. When we’re surrounded by skyscrapers and neon glamour, what defines us as Chinese? Urbanization does not mean brutally encroaching upon the countryside and strangling rural culture. It should not sever the ties with our beloved homeland. While promoting the country’s economy, it should also allow space for cultural diversity. In the ideal urbanization process, we should no longer emphasize the binary opposition of city and village, but endeavor to form a reciprocal relationship between the two.

Ladies and gentlemen, fallen leaves return to the roots. If we do not redefine and reorient urbanization, we will not be able to save millions of villages, neither can we revert to the origin where we belong.

Thank you.

On earth, except human beings, what else? Yes, there are animal. But afterseveral years, animal numbers decreased gradually. Human beings have no regardanimal as a friend?

Animal and human should be good friends, but why animal and human enemies? Isbecause people don't send in the eyes of the animal. Such as the cow. With cowdairy production such as human, cow milk can not time, humans will put the cowto brutally kill. Cow's milk, will not be released? The cow is also a vivid lifeah! In recent years the "plague, AIDS, mad cow disease, avian flu", these are aharbinger of animal who respond! The meeting has also had the third world war?Our ancestors is an animal! If human beings don't stop this killing the animalbehavior, is the mother of our area heavy blow ah!

Home we don't damage animal now, so they can feel at ease to animalreproduction. Animal friends, also have a piece of blue sky, let the bird flyfreely; to the animal a piece of green grass, let the cattle and sheep runningmerrily; also a world of waters animal, allow the animal to be light of heartfrom care to swim in the ocean. Perhaps, this can soothe animal were woundedsoul. Animal originally bad, but human destruction of their homes, these arejust their effects on human "revenge".

Friends, let us work together to protect animal!

life is composed of complex things and emotions, but sometimes a good lifeattitude can change a lot, showing a different world for everyone. we all knowthat taking the college entrance examination is one of the most important thingsfor a person’s whole life. of course, high school students will under greatpressure. so, how to treat it properly before and after the exam is veryimportant. my opinions are as following.

生活有各种复杂的事情以及情感构造而成,然而有时候良好的生活态度可以有很大的改变,为我们展示了一个不一样的世界。众所周知参加高考是每个人一生中最重要的事情之一。当然,高中生肯定得承受很大的压力。所以,如何在考前以及考后看待这个考试是很重要的。我的观点如下。

first of all, keeping a good life attitude is helpful for college entranceexam. as everyone regards it as so important and students themselves also put somuch effort on it, they are surely stressful when it is coming. some cannot fallasleep, some cannot think, and some cannot memorize things well because they aretoo nervous. as a result, they may not perform well in the exam. however, ifthey can keep a usual mind, they maybe at their best to get a good mark.

首先,保持良好的生活态度有助于高考。因为每个人都把高考看得那么重要,而且学生本身也为此付出了很大努力,当高考即将来临时他们肯定会压力山大。由于过于紧张,有人会失眠,有人会脑子一片空白,还有人会记不住知识。所以,他们在考试中可能会表现失常。但是,如果他们可以保持良好的生活态度,他们就有可能处他们的状态,从而取得好成绩。

in addition, after the high school entrance examination, keeping a goodlift attitude is very important. having experienced so stressful study for along time, some students start to indulge themselves. some may be very lazy andsome may do some crazy things to relax. however, it turns out that theirbehavior will ruin themselves at last. if they have a good life attitude, theywould relax themselves in a proper way not excessive.

而且,高考之后保持良好的心态也是很重要的。在长期经历高压学习后,有些学生会开始堕落。有些可能会很懒,或者做一些疯狂的事来放松自我。然而,他们的这些行为最终有可能会毁了他们。如果他们能保持良好的生活态度,他们就会正确的放松而不是过度。

in a word, keeping a good life attitude is significant and helpful ineveryone’s whole life.

总之,保持良好的生活态度在每个人的一生中都是很重要,也是很有帮助的。

The romantic love story——The film describes a love story between a harlot and a rich man. It is a fairy story about Cinderella of modern version. Being the he-ro-in-e in a fairy tale seems to be the dream of every girl since very young. All girls are looking forward to romantic love stories descending on them. The more impossible the love is going to happen, the happier the girl to be, which is definitely decided by the nature of girls. The most impressed things came to me in the film were the hero’s (Richard Gere) character. He was charming, a real confident man, so perfect, so charming, however, that didn’t make you think he was conceited or he was pretend to be attractive. As a matter of fact, he is an indeed gentleman, with a natural gentle manner. His charm actually comes from his inner refinement. His personality is a great magnet to me.In the meanwhile, the difference between a rude woman and elegant women are obviously high lightened in this film, which I has paid attention to for a long time.

现在看来,许多人的体重都过重。没有人愿意随身携带额外的磅,但是很少人知道如何才能有效地瘦下来。他们会去寻找特效药,以及神奇的治疗法。最后,他们失败和英镑回来。但实际上最有效的减肥方法是非常简单的。这是一个良好的饮食和适当的锻炼结合起来。是什么让它工作的决心。它需要纪律和成功的承诺。这里有一个例子证明这句话的真实性。

我阿姨多年来一直试图减肥。她接着一个又一个的饮食,但是他们中没有人工作。她失去了很多体重很快回来。最后,她按照医生的建议,开始吃一个简单的、均衡的饮食。她吃大量的水果和蔬菜,避免高脂肪的食物。此外,她加入了一个健身班。她每周运动三次。起初,我姑姑不开心因为体重掉了这么慢。但是她的同学们鼓励她坚持下去,最终她达到她的目标。最重要的是,她能够留在她的理想体重。,因为她已经养成健康的新习惯。

It seems that many people today are overweight. No one wants to carry around extra pounds, lout few people know how to slum down effectively. They look for miracle pills and magic cures. In the end, they fail and the pounds come back. But the most effective way of losing weight is actually very simple. It is a combination of a good diet and proper exercise. What makes it work is determination. It requires discipline and commitment to succeed. Here is an example that proves the truth of these words.

My aunt had been trying to lose weight for years. She went on one diet after another, but none of them worked. She lost a lot of weight quickly only to have it come back. Finally, she followed her doctor's advice and began to eat a simple, well-balanced diet. She ate lots of fruits and vegetables and avoided high-fat foods. In addition, she joined an exercise class. She worked out three times a week. At first, my aunt wasn't happy because the weight came off so slowly. But her classmates encouraged her to stick to it and eventually she reached her goal. Best of all, she was able to stay at her ideal weight. That was because she had developed healthy new habits.

And most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level! You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and committed! And you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!

You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and asking new questions. You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take.

When I was seven, I started learning English. I played games and sang English songs with other children. Sometimes, I watched English cartoons. It's funny. Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.

I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington, because my cousin is over there. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge University, I will be very happy.

I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. Also I'll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, and the gardens in Suzhou. I will teaching people of the world about the beautiful language of our country.

I like the English language. To learn English is wonderful. I once wanted to be an English teacher . I also like Chinese literature. When I was really young, I was able to remember lots of poems. I also wanted to be a teacher of Chinese. Now I think that both of my dreams can come true: I will be able to use English to teach foreign friends Chinese and share Chinese culture with them. So that more and more people will be able to get to know the 5000 years' history culture, and the prosperity of our great China.

My future is not a dream. I am confident that it will come true.

6am when I put on this ZARA dress, I found its label writes this: “Designed in Spain. Made in Vietnam.” And it is now available all over the Chinese market. ZARA is the fastest among various fashion brands. With advantages generated by globalization, from raw material to labor, from warehouse to shipping, it takes only 12 to 15 days for ZARA to turn a design on sketch paper to clothes on shelves.

Globalization has eliminated numerous barriers and made the world flat ever since it gained momentum in the 1990s. But recently it seems to be rolled back by someone like Donald Trump in US and Marine Le Pen in France. Public opinions are being misled by their claim that recoiling from globalization seems to be the panacea to the two most urgent problems troubling many people in the west—employment and refugees. But can we buy the story?

Withdrawing from TPP seems to be an act that can move factories back from third world countries so that new jobs can be created and therefore unemployment rate reduced. However, the cost of the products would also be raised since the labor at home and the transport of raw materials are more expensive, which causes greater pressure on all the families in terms of household expenditure. People may manage to get new jobs but the living standard does not improve. And this is the story that anti-globalization politicians would never tell to the voters.

In addition to the concern of employment, the influx of refugees also touches a highly sensitive nerve. Rejecting asylum seekers may promote domestic security in the short run, but it tramples what’s equally important--humanitarianism and responsibilities. Refugees such as those from Syria are not born refugees; they are made refugees by the Wars that shattered their homes and countries. The real solution therefore is not isolation but globalization because globalization promotes interdependence among nations whereby conflicts and wars are more likely to be prevented.

Yes, there are defects in globalization, such as environmental deterioration, polarization between the rich and the poor, and exploitation of workers, to name just a few. But what we need to do is not putting an end to it but putting it right. As the second largest economy of the world, China should hold a lead. We should promote global governance fight against contamination. We should strike a balance between efficiency and equity so that different countries, different social classes and different groups of people can all enjoy the benefits of globalization.

Globalization has just stepped into its twenties, pretty much like us young adults. Every twenty something is so energetic, striding to achieve more and surely deserving a second chance to pull back from the deviation. As we consumers are enjoying benefits and convenience brought by ZARA and other international brands, we see clearer that the question now is not whether to accept or reject globalization but how to make it fairer, cleaner and a win-win for all.

I woke up and looked at my watch. oh my god, It’s 7:30 already! i have to get up at once otherwise I’ll be late. today i’ll take the australian athletes as a tour guide around beijing, and i’m going to be the interpreter at the beijing olympic games opening ceremony tomorrow. this has always been a dream of mine since beijing won the bid of the olympics, and now the dream has finally come true—i have already become a successful interpreter. and today is another important day of my interpreting career. i’m a little nervous but, of course, very excited. here goes my plan for today:

Well, our first destination is, surely, the landmark of beijing, the symbol of the 5000 years’civilization—the forbidden city—where the emperors and empresses of the ming and qing dynasties lived, and it’s really grand. it was renovated recently because of the coming olympics.

The second place we are going to is the great wall. this is the only building, i hear, that can been seen from the moon, and it represents the diligence and the wisdom of whole chinese nation.

Now, it’s time for lunch. we plan to have… what? you say ”beijing duck”? yeah, right you are! we’ll come back to the center of beijing, and we’ll have dinner at “quanjude” restaurant. you can enjoy the most delicious chinese food—beijing duck, and you must be very pleased to hear this! then I’ll show you around the summer palace. It’s the royal garden for the emperors and empresses of the qing dynasty to pass the hot summers.

After visiting those historical places, you’ll surely be impressed by the long-lasting history of our great country. at the same time, during the journey of moving from one place of interest to another, we won’t miss having a glance of beijing’s modern civilization. the skyscrapers, beautiful avenues and advanced facilities must also catch your eyes. and we’ll also have a chance to experience beijing’s fast development in person. we’ll do some shopping at the shopping center near the olympics village. you can buy everything there of course except guns and drugs which are seriously forbidden in china. to see is to believe. what you see and experience will be strong prove of your choice to beijing, china!

That’s all about my plan for the day. what do you think of it, my friends? today, I’m very proud to be here to give a speech about a dream, a dream for which we worked together for nine years or even more. as beijing becomes the host city of the 29th olympic games, every beijinger cares for the environment and good manners and behaviors much more than before. now beijing has already made herselves’ dream come true. so i must work harder to catch up with her steps. knowing the hardness of making a dream into reality, I need to do my best at every side of my work, so then I believe my little dream—to be an interpreter—will definitely be realized someday in the future!

Thank you

“Way to Blue. Everybody Hurts. Glad to be Unhappy.”

These were some of the chart-toppers announced on the radio while I was at the barbershop a year ago. Quite depressing, huh.

I asked my brother, Joe, why songs that display such unhappiness reach the charts. Joe is an established businessman who is always confident with his viewpoints. He reacted quickly and questioned me in a matter-of-fact tone, “can’t you relate to the song?” He then confidently pointed to the Buddhists’ explanation of happiness, explaining to me that happiness is never a constant state, but rather only a temporary escape from suffering. While I respect the Buddhist explanation, I couldn’t help but ask: so what is keeping you from experiencing happiness? Joe lost his assertiveness when I mentioned this and he replied, “While I gain acceptance from my peers and family, I feel like I’m a nobody. These songs act as a route for me to escape. I don’t see happiness as attainable in my life.”

While Joe transformed from a confident speaker to a soft-spoken melancholic within a matter of a minute, my barber offered him a sympathetic smile. He spoke up. “I was exactly like you - once upon a time, I deceived myself into thinking I was happy. I followed the majority’s norms of a stable job in brokerage and felt I gained society’s acceptance. I was loved! But deep down, I loved songs like these because I felt so useless. I felt that whatever I did made no difference in the world. I found an escape from this mainstream music as a means of explaining myself. Then the next day, I’d put on my suit and be a nobody again.

Then I asked, but how about now? “Now?” The barber said, smiling. “Now, I don’t think this music deserves its place on the charts.” He flipped over to his playlist and played us a song - “Mayfly” by Cheer Chen.

The lyrics goes “Everyday when we open our eyes, we are all mayflies. Living a simple life, chasing a dream vigorously, searching for nothing but happiness.”

“I think this music deserves a place on the charts. I wish people could search for happiness by only looking forward, and be brave enough neglect harsh criticisms and mockeries along the way - just like a mayfly. A mayfly only sees what is ahead of it - why else would their lives be so simple otherwise? I became a barber because I wanted to attain happiness - sure, I experienced disapproval from peers and such, but I did not want to become “a firefly without light”. I find happiness when I mix with trendy young people that are eager to make their customers look better - sure, some may not understand why this brings me happiness, but does it matter?”

My brother Joe and I had a long conversation that evening. We debated vigorously on our different values of happiness - while the conversation with the barber relit my childhood dream of being a conductor, Joe still questions whether stable happiness can achieved even if his dreams are fulfilled. But ultimately, we agreed that one should not let others decide your own standard of happiness. Don’t deceive yourself into sadness and despair; pick yourself up and find your own definition of happiness. Thank you.

There is no doubt that the arts festival enriches our college life an extracurricular activity. However when it comes to what should be included in the arts festival different people have different views. Some insists on performing arts such as dances and dramas. Still others argue for the work of art like paintings and calligraphy. Personally I agree with the latter and I strongly recommend that photographic works should be counted as an important aspect of the arts festival.

毫无疑问,艺术节丰富了我们大学生活中的课外活动。然而,每当说起艺术节该包含什么节目,不同的人有不同的想法。有些人坚持表演艺术,像舞蹈和话剧。有些人辩论说应该也有绘画和书法的作品。个人来说,我同意后者而且我强烈推荐摄影作为艺术节中重要的一部分。

My suggestion lies in the following two reasons. On the one hand for he students who take photos the photographic exhibition can stimulate them to discover the beauty that permeates our surroundings. As the saying goes beauty is in the eye of the beholder; such an activity will definitely foster sharp eyes of photographers to-be. On the other hand for the students who appreciate the photos they are given a shortcut to the beauty of the nature and the society. Maybe by this way they find the sense of the life and enjoy the life more in the future.

我的建议基于以下两点。从一方面来说,对于拍照的同学,摄影展示能够激发他们去发现我们身边的美。常言道,美在观察者的眼中;像这种活动绝对能够培养未来摄影者的锐利目光。从另一方面来说,对于喜欢照片的同学来说,他们就有了一条通向自然和社会的美景的捷径了。也许通过这个方式,他们能够找到生活的感觉,未来也会更加享受生活。

In short the photographic exhibition can get the students to discover and appreciate beauty. I believe that it is wise to involve the photographic works into the university arts festival.

简言之,摄影展能够让同学发现和欣赏美。我相信把摄影展加入到大学艺术节是明智的。
