Be Like a Pine Tree and Bear What You Can

School had been very easy for me in the beginning. I had been the usual routine---shows up for school, complete assignments take tests, get grades. And that was usually straight A’s. I thought school was that easy. Suddenly middle school began. Sure, I was a top student for six years, why would it be any harder? It was; the bad mark in a pop quiz deeply humbled me. I became very angry about my situation. I felt so depressed. One day，Mother took me for a long walk. “See those elm trees,” she said. “The branches are broken. The trees may die. But look at those pine trees! They are not hurt by the snow.” “When they have more snow than they can hold, they lower the branches and let the snow slip away. The next morning they are as good as ever.” “Be like a pine tree. Bear what you can, then let the load slide off. You will move forward lightly.” Yes, “Be like a pine tree. Bear what you can! ” Now I will learn to put down the trouble, then go forward.

The usage of Internet becomes one of the most controversial topics in the society. As a college student, I believe Internet is beneficial to me more than the way it harms me. There are many advantages for using Internet. First, I can best use my time to find information online instead of going to different libraries. Also, the information can be dated back in decades ago. It is very helpful to use those information as reference and historical proof. In the library, it is hard to find so much "old" information. Another advantage to use Internet is that I can stay home and have a lecture online. It is much more convenience to me because I can stay warm to have class in the winter time instead of spending two hours on the bus and physically attend class. In addition, Internet provides me a better way to communicate with my friends and professors. I can get response from my professor in a few minutes instead of waiting outside of his door for hours. Some of my friends are living in a foreign countries, I can simply just drop him an email whenever I can and get a message from him very quick. It is much better than waiting for letters. Also, the email will not lose while the letter might be losing in the process of delivery.

世界上最简短最精彩的演讲系列一

经典演讲一： Angry Words 愤怒的话

Words said in anger are like scars left by nails in a fence. Even though you can pull all the nails out, the

fence is never really the same. You can pierce a knife into a man and draw it out. No matter how many times you say, “I’m sorry”, the wound is still there. Verbal wounds are as damaging as physical wounds.

【参考翻译】

怒的时候说的话，就像钉子钉在栅栏上留下的疤痕。尽管你可以把栅栏上的钉子都拔出来，但栅栏却永远不会恢复原样了。你可以一刀刺到别人身上，然后拔出来。但无论你说多少次“对不起。伤口永远都在那儿。口头上带来的伤害跟身体上的伤害一样严重。

经典演讲二： Real Beauty真正的美丽

【1】Beauty is only skin-deep. Physical beauty can only be held fleetingly. Real beauty is much deeper and far greater. It is a life force, an energy, which radiates from within and transcends the physical. Real beauty may not be visible at first glance, but it lasts forever.

【2】Inner beauty is limitless. Physical beauty is limited. What you can see is never as deep and profound as what you can’t see.

英语学习六原则 英语学习应遵循以下六大原则。这些原则都是"常识"性的。正如美国总统林肯所说：一个人必须依据语言、逻辑和简单的常识来决定问题和建立自己的行动计划。

在学习英语的过程中，你按照常理去做，你就可能成功。你违背了常理，就不可能成功。当然，成功与否还取决于你的努力。

这一次，你若按照常理去做，并且下工夫，那你就要成功了！

一、简单原则

学习英语：从简单的开始

运用英语：简单——好、更简单－—更好、最简单－—最好

只有从简单的开始，才容易入门，才容易产生"兴趣"，才容易把事情进行下去。英语阅读应遵守"简单原则"，听、说、写都应从最简单的开始，因为简单原则有巨大的优点：

1、造就成就感，培养自信。

2、增加兴趣。 3、语言朗朗上口。 4、易于学以致用。 但是很多中国学生对简单的语言往往不屑一顾，只求理解而不去尝试着使用自己学到的东西。中国学生在学英语中最喜欢追求一个字——"难"。尽管学了很多难的东西，却不会用。而事实上，简单的东西如能灵活、准确地使用才是真正重要的。

比如从口语来说，人们并不是看一个人会说多么难的单词，关键在于看他能否熟练运用最简单的单词、句型、语法来表达情感、思想。英语国家人们日常生活的交流是通过有限数量的单词和简单的句型来完成的。

Plain English（简洁英语）在英语国家已成为趋势：即在说或写英文时都力求简单。而中国学生尽管学了很多难词，复杂的结构，但就连用简单词和结构来表达思想都做不到；有时用了很大的词，一方面不妥，再者也很难让别人明白。其实当你透彻理解英语中的"小词"，"简单表达方式"时，才能熟练地用简单英语交际。

当然这并不是说"难的单词"和"复杂句型"一点儿也不能用，或者说没有用，我只是说应该少用或尽量不用。但目前"简单英语"即是"最好英语"的潮流是千真万确的。其实你同外国人面对面交流，你就会惊喜的发现，他们讲的英语是那么的简单，你甚至会反问自己学了多年的复杂英语用处何在？

I believe in our future

Honorable Judges, fellow students:

Good afternoon!

Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at

extraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?

The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The college

students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We help each other clean the dormitory,
