A son and his father were walking on the mountains. Suddenly, the son falls, hurts himself and screams, "AAAhhhh!!!"To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain," AAAhhhh!" Curious, he yells," Who are you?" He receives the answer,"Who are you?" Angered at the response, he scream,"Coward!" He receives the answer,"Coward!"
He looks to his father and asks,"What's going on?" The father smiles and says,"My son, pay attention." And then he screams to the mountain, "I admire you!" The voice answers," I admire you!" Again the man screams,"You are a champion!" The voice answers,"You are a champion!" The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains,"People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. If you want more competence in you team, improve your competence. This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life. Life will give you back everything you have given to it."
有一個(gè)小男孩和他的父親走在山中。突然，孩子不小心跌倒了，痛得大叫了一聲：“哎呀……”但是令他吃驚的是，他聽到了一個(gè)聲音從山中的某處傳出來，重復(fù)著他的喊聲：“哎呀……”他很好奇，大聲喊道：“你是誰?”結(jié)果他得到的回答也是：“你是誰?”小男孩聽了很生氣，大聲喊道：“膽小鬼!”結(jié)果他得到的回答也是：“膽小鬼!”他看著父親問道：“到底是怎么回事?”父親笑著說：“兒子，注意聽?！备赣H對(duì)著山大喊了一聲：“我佩服你!”結(jié)果傳回來的聲音也是：“我佩服你!”父親再一次大聲地喊：“你是冠軍!”那個(gè)聲音也回答道：“你是冠軍!”小孩子很驚訝，但是不明白其中的原因。
這時(shí)父親解釋說：“人們稱這為‘回音’，但實(shí)際上這就是‘人生’。你說的每一句話，做的每一件事都會(huì)回應(yīng)到你身上。我們的人生只不過是我們所作所為的反映。如果你要這個(gè)世界有更多的愛，那么你就要在你的心中創(chuàng)造更多的愛;如果你想讓你的團(tuán)隊(duì)更優(yōu)秀，那么先讓你自己更優(yōu)秀。這種關(guān)系對(duì)任何事情都是適用的，它適用于人生的方方面面。你給予人生的一切它都會(huì)回應(yīng)給你?！?/p>
Last night, I watched a tennis game, it was the US open, because there was a Chinese female player came to the semi-final, so I stayed up to watched the game. Unluckily, she was injured twice, though she still wanted to finish the game, her body situation did not allow her to do so. Her insistence moved so many audience, they gave her the biggest applause.
The power of insistence is great, it will help you set free your potential and keep move on. Just for the players, they will face all kinds of incidences now and then, but the will to insist will make them finish the game. Sometimes, people win the game not because of their excellent skills, but their strong will. Those who can stick on to the final line will win people’s applause.
What’s more, when people insist to finish the game, it is the respect that they show to their opponents. Their spirit deserves people’s applause. Insistence is a merit, we should keep it, no matter what we do, we must remember to insist.
昨晚，我看了一場(chǎng)網(wǎng)球比賽，那是美國網(wǎng)球公開賽，因?yàn)橛兄袊x手來到了半決賽，所以我熬夜看了比賽。很不幸地，她兩次受傷，雖然她仍然想要完成比賽，但是她的身體狀況不允許她堅(jiān)持下去。她的堅(jiān)持感動(dòng)了很多觀眾，他們給予了她最大的掌聲。
堅(jiān)持的力量是很偉大的，它能讓你發(fā)揮你的潛力，并且一直走下去。對(duì)于運(yùn)動(dòng)員，他們會(huì)時(shí)而不時(shí)地面對(duì)各種各樣的意外，但是堅(jiān)持比賽的意志會(huì)讓他們完成比賽。有時(shí)候，人們贏得比賽并不是因?yàn)樗麄兂錾募记?，而是他們?jiān)強(qiáng)的意志。那些能堅(jiān)持到終點(diǎn)的人會(huì)贏得人們的掌聲。
而且，當(dāng)人們堅(jiān)持完成比賽，也是對(duì)對(duì)手的一種尊重。他們的精神值得人們鼓掌。堅(jiān)持是一種美德，我們應(yīng)該保持，無論做什么，我們都要記得堅(jiān)持。
Success is not final and failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
成功不是終點(diǎn)，失敗也不是終結(jié)，只有勇氣才是永恒。
Never cease to outdo yourself. There are no limits to the success you can acquire when you have an duanwenw uncontrollable drive to achieve. Any obstacles you encounter along the way are life’s test to establish strength and perseverance. If you continually possess determination and self-confidence throughout any situation, you will prevail.
超越你自己,永遠(yuǎn)不要停止。當(dāng)你擁有無法過制的獲勝?zèng)_動(dòng),你的成功將不可限量。前進(jìn)路上的任何障礙都是用以確立力量和毅力的人生考驗(yàn)。 倘若你在任何情況下都始終擁有決心和信心,你將會(huì)無往不勝。
The first time in life? Then grasp your chance with your perfect performance on the dating night, by learning the following principle in heart.
Dress properly. While everyone wants to give an impressive debut on the first date, you should avoid wearing something too bizarre to be accepted. If you are still in school, a sportswear can fulfill your purpose. For businessman or grownups, casual clothes are recommended. Never put up your working uniforms,no matter how well you like that Armani suit. It is no work. A few accessories such as a pair of sunglasses or silver loops on the wrist can add up to the romance sphere.
Take a bath before dating. And if you like, spray a little perfume, but unless you're sure that he or she likes the smell,don't use ones that are too strong.
Watch your manner. You're no prince of the Scotland nor Cinderella in the legend. Proper manners will ensure a lasting relationship while bad ones scare away your sweetheart. And do make sure you do not boast about your fortune, for, not everyone are green addicts. And your way of smiling, or your greatestoath, should neither be "coy" nor "by St. Loy!" after the nun in Chaucer.
Be a little sensitive than merely innocent. Do make sure you do not intrude his or her privacy on the first date. For there maybe something deeply concealed within the inner core of every heart, of which the owner doesn't share often with anyone but his intimacy.
Finally, wish you good luck. May you get your hearts combined and start a new journey in the miracle of life and love. Stay tuned till a borderline is reached, and keep on through out the whole way.
簡評(píng) 看來第一次約會(huì)真是令人興奮并緊張期待的。為第一次約會(huì)所提出的建議也是仁者見仁、智者見智。王永同學(xué)用詞簡單、結(jié)構(gòu)精煉，讀起來節(jié)奏快，例如：“Dress Properly....If you are still in school，a sportswear can fulfill your purpose.For businessman Orgrowmups，casual clothes are recommended.”這樣的文章結(jié)構(gòu)像是在提醒我們時(shí)不我待，要抓住機(jī)會(huì)，抓緊時(shí)間。
Life is not about just getting by. Life is about reaching ever higher, building one achievement on top of another, and creating real, meaningful value in each moment.
A common stone on the ground does a great job of just getting by. You, on the other hand, are destined1 for much more spectacular things. Yes, indeed, you will certainly meet a number of challenges when you make the effort to raise your world even a little bit higher. The good thing is, you are superbly equipped to thrive on those challenges.
If life seems unsuccessful, it’s not because of the challenges or limitations that stand in your way. It’s because you refuse to see the exceptional opportunities that those challenges represent.
This is your precious and unique life, and it is absolutely worth all the trouble and effort you must go through to make it great. Within you at this moment are beautiful dreams, and you can begin to live in the direction of those dreams whenever you choose.
Let go of the false security of just getting by, and get yourself into focus on a purpose that will bring your life gloriously to life. Your very own pathway to success is just one quick step away.
生活并不是過得去就行,而是需要我們每時(shí)每刻都有所超越,不斷取得成就,并且創(chuàng)造真正的、有意義的價(jià)值。
地上的一塊普通的石子只是躺在那里就做得很好了。然而,你注定是要做大事的。是的,當(dāng)你努力提升自己時(shí),你的確會(huì)遇到許多困難,哪怕只是提升一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)。幸運(yùn)的是,你有能力戰(zhàn)勝那些挑戰(zhàn)。
如果生活看起來并不是一帆風(fēng)順的,那并不是因?yàn)槟闱胺降牡缆飞嫌刑魬?zhàn)或阻礙,而是因?yàn)槟銢]有看到那些挑戰(zhàn)中蘊(yùn)藏的良機(jī)。
這是你所珍愛的、獨(dú)一無二的生活。為了讓它變得更美好,經(jīng)歷困難、付出努力都是值得的。此刻,你的內(nèi)心充滿著美好的夢(mèng)想,只要你選擇,你就可以朝著夢(mèng)想的方向生活。
摒棄生活只要過得去就行這樣的錯(cuò)誤觀點(diǎn),全心投入一個(gè)目標(biāo)——讓你的生活更加精彩。成功之路離你僅一步之遙。
no young man believes he shall ever die. it was a saying of my brother's, and a fine one. there is a feeling of eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. to be young is to be as one of the immortal gods. one half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countletreasures; for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. we make the coming age our own-
the vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us.
death. old age. are words without a meaning. that paby us like the idea air which we regard not. others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed life“, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies. as in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward-
bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!
and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
a poet leads me to a branch road: on one side, there are lots of sweet apples, lovely and charming; on the other, there is a patch of thorn, what hides behind the success of struggling against the thorn is a splendid palace. i deeply know that if i choose the apples, i will give up a precious opportunity of becoming a queen; while if i choose to challenge, i have to say farewell to the apples. which one should i choose?
just like the branch road, we have to make a lot of choices during our lifetime. it is usually considered that we are choosing what to gain, to own, but in my opinion, we are just choosing to give up.
choosing to be a teacher means giving up the life as rich as a business man;
choosing to be a top student means giving up much leisure time in front of the tv.
sure, it's a torture, but we must judge carefully what is more important, then give up the others. don't think of them any more, just focus all your spirit on what you are doing.
i myself, who is standing here, have already chosen to challenge in such a great competition, so i have to give up ten days of normal classes in school and relaxation without pressure. but i am still pleased, because giving up properly makes me stick to my choice.
let's return to our branch road, which one will your choose? i choose to challenge here!
Life hard。 We should not give up hope。 By the time we have given up， we are finhed。 Chances are always there。 We have to grab every single opportunity。。。to help， to love and to serve。 To live our life happier， full of joy， we have to set our goal and even dream big。
生活總是充滿挑戰(zhàn)。我們不應(yīng)當(dāng)放下期望。我們放下了，我們被完成。機(jī)會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)都在那里。我們必須抓住每一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)，去幫忙他們，去愛和服務(wù)。來過我們的生活更歡樂，充滿了歡樂，我們得把我們的目標(biāo)，甚至更大的夢(mèng)想。
If we choose the shortest path in life， we will never learn。 To be or not to be， we have to be SOMEBODY。 The fastest way to gain love to love others first!Do not hide your talent， your knowledge and your beautiful heart。 Go for your dream and live for it。
如果我們選擇最短路徑在生活中，我們學(xué)不會(huì)的。做還是不做，我們要出人頭地。最快捷的方式獲得的愛在于無條件地愛別人不要隱藏你的才華，你的知識(shí)和你的美麗的心。去找你的夢(mèng)想并為它而生活。
