If You are Honest, I Will Believe in You
I don’t know whether you have noticed a note while you were eating in the dining room. There was a note put up on the vending machine, and the word on the paper really touched me. It said that, if you are honest, I will believe in you.
The word recalls a story kept in my mind, and now I am so glad to share with you. I believe most of you have watched CCTV Spring Festival Gala this year, but who still remember an old man named Wu Hengzhong. (Look)This man, as a representative of “national moral models”, was invited to pay a New Year call to the people, and was also the protagonist of the story I am going to tell.
He was a common 58-year-old peasant in Tongnan ,Chongqing. What makes him well-known is that he has been repaying a debt, which replaced his dead son. In 2001, his son, Wu Jun, borrowed money from his relatives and then bought a truck to make a living from it. However, in 2003, a misfortune befall him as well as his family was involved. He died in a car accident, leaving a 4-year-old child and 19 thousand debt. On the day of bury, he cried at his son’s grave, and said, don’t worry, I will replace the debt instead of you. After that, he was in great distress over the death of his son, but still was strong and alive. However, 19 thousand debt was a really huge sum for him, so for repaying the debt, he just reclaimed all the wasteland in the mountain, the total area 52 mu and became the largest local grower. How much is the 52 mu? Let’s make a calculation together. Each mu is approximately equal to 666 square meters, so 52 mu is about 35 thousand square meters, and is approach to the area of 5 qualified football court. Can you imagine that? An old man cultivated a so huge area. It means that he had to work day and night, and actually he did so. At the same time, for repaying the debt, he has been lived frugally, and the clothes he wore were all from others’. While he was still optimistic, he would rather lived hard himself but to be responsible to all the creditors. All this time, he has been repaid the debt little by little, and just because of his good faith, local residents believed him a lot and helped him. Up to now, all the debts has be paid. There is someone once advised him to work in other places so that he could earn more, but he refused for the reason of avoiding others’worry. He thought of, if he stayed in his hometown, so that the creditors would not have the worry of he would not repay their money. And just because of this belief and his good faith, he has been insisted this tough business.
One thing I hope you can realize is that there is no legal provision requires the relatives should repay a debt instead of the debtor,even his father.
Now my story is over. I am not sure whether you were touched deeply like me, but I still want to restate again. If you are honest, I will believe in you. Maybe life would be some different, but you will have a clear conscience, and that is more important. Thank you.

尊敬的老师,亲爱的同学们:
大家早上好
感谢大家给我这个机会,让我能站在这里,今天我要谈谈英语。我的话题是:我喜欢英语。
每个人都知道:英语是很重要的,现在它已被应用于世界的各个领域,在互联网上,在国际贸易中,它已经成为最常见的语言。如果我们能说一口流利的英语,我们会有更多的机会获得成功。但是对于我,不仅因为学习英语很重要,更因为我爱它。
当我学习英语的时候,我可以感受到一种不同的思维方式;当我读英语时,我能感到来自于英语而不是汉语译文的快乐;当我说英语时,我能感到语言中充满了自信;当我写的英语时,我能领略到不同于汉语的美丽……
我喜欢英语,它给了我一个五彩缤纷的梦。说一口流利的英语能让我交到不同国家的朋友。我希望能环游世界,我希望看到世界各地的名胜古迹。我也想用我流利的口语向那些讲英语的朋友介绍我们伟大的祖国,我相信他们会像我们一样爱中国。
我知道,罗马不是一天建成的。我相信,经过不断努力学习,总有一天,我可以讲一口流利的英语。
我确信,我会实现我的梦想!
谢谢大家!
