Have you ever heard about Warren Buffet, the second richest person in the world? Well, today I am not going to talk about him but his three kids.

For someone whose parent is such an extraordinarily successful investor, the three kids come out pretty ordinary guys. When they were young, they each received $ 10,000 a year. If they wanted to borrow more money form their father, they have to sign a written agreement. When growing up, however, they all found their lovely jobs-housewife, farmer, musician, instead of relying on their well off father.

It seems that they are unlucky to have a father who criticizes the self-indulgence of super-rich. But is it really true? No, absolutely not! In fact, they are grateful to him because they found their own passion which suits their true talent, and they are able to make money on their own.

So what could we learn from them? Three words: independence, responsibility, passion. Indeed we are fortunate to be protected by the whole family, but this cannot be the reason for us to become boomerang children.

Although we, the generation of 90s have been questioned from the day we were born: selfness and weakness, indifference and rebellion, sensitivity and pride, we are still pressing on with our creed: Yes we can. At a time when the earthquake happened in We chuan, we were praised by the whole public because of the bravery and determination we show during the process of rescuing. Yes we can. When the World Expo was held in Shanghai, the smile on volunteers’ faces impressed millions of people all around the world. Yes we can. When the two kids fell into the river, fifteen freshmen of Chang Jiang University saved them from drowning regardless of the truth that they cannot swim. Yes we can. We were there for the return of Hong Kong and Macao, the Olympic Game in Beijing, the 60th anniversary of founding of New China, and Premier Wen Jiabao who told the survivors in earthquake that “We shall overcome.” Yes we can.

As the only child in the family, however, some of us just like flowers growing in the greenhouse that take for granted, and parents will give them whatever they want, from toys to books, from watches to cell phones, from houses to cars. But apart from this, we have to be independent. Everyone is an individual. You are not your parents’ sequel. You are not your kids’ prequel. You have your own talents and you have to rely on yourselves.

Take responsibility. No one can support you in your whole life. No one

January first. The beginning of a new year. As far back in history as wecan tell, people have celebrated the start of a new year.

The people of ancient Egypt began their new year in summer. That is whenthe Nile River flooded its banks, bringing water and fertility to the land. Thepeople of ancient Babylonia and Persia began their new year on Marchtwenty-first, the first day of spring. And, some Native American Indians begantheir new year when the nuts of the oak tree became ripe. That was usually inlate summer.

Now, almost everyone celebrates New Years Day on January first. Today, asbefore, people observe the New Years holiday in many different ways.

The ancient Babylonians celebrated by forcing their king to give up hiscrown and royal clothing. They made him get down on his knees and admit all themistakes he had made during the past year.

This idea of admitting wrongs and finishing the business of the old year isfound in many societies at new years. So is the idea of making resolutions. Aresolution is a promise to change your ways. To stop smoking, for example. Or toget more physical exercise.

Noise-making is another ancient custom at the new year. The noise isconsidered necessary to chase away the evil spirits of the old year. Peoplearound the world do different things to make a lot of noise. They may hit stickstogether. Or beat on drums. Or blow horns. Or explode fireworks.

Americans celebrate the New Year in many ways.

Most do not have to go to work or school. So they visit family and friends.Attend church services. Share a holiday meal. Or watch new years parades ontelevision. Two of the most famous parades are the Mummers Parade inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania, and the Rose Parade in Pasadena, California. Bothhave existed for many years.

Americans also watch football on television on New Years Day. Most years,university teams play in special holiday games.

For those who have been busy at work or school, New Years may be a day ofrest. They spend the time thinking about, and preparing for, the demands of thenew year.

Honorable Judges, fellow students:

Good afternoon!

Recently, there is a heated debate in our society. The college students arethe beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education atextraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and supportourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Willwe be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of ourcountry?

The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, whichwould cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The collegestudents I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We helpeach other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take parttime jobs to supplement our pocket money.

The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect theneed for character cultivation. But again, the cynics are wrong. We care deeplyfor each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth.

We had numerous happy days together, and every day is memorable. Itis so long that if I share every moment with you, this meeting may last three days or even longer. So in order to give us time to work, to eat, to go homeand to sleep, I will only share three most memorable moments we had together.

The first memorable moment for me was thecompany activity held in May by our human resources Department. We played games together and had a great time. That day was my 25th birthday, but that is not the most important reason whyI remember it so well. Firstly, I learned our company’s history, and felt thatit is very difficult to start a business, and thought that everyone in ourcompany is very hard working. Secondly, I joined Maple’s team that day,although we almost lost all of the competitions, everyone was so happy andfriendly and my team made me understood the meaning of the phrase? “team spirit”。I began to understand and like our company after that day’s activity.

The second memorable moment for me was the birthday party held in May. I never had such a birthday party before, what’s more, my birthday is the same month as our General Manager Lu, and I felt very honored and grateful. I received a lot of warm celebration words from all of you and a lovely birthday card. I was so moved that day and had the feeling that I am a part of this big family. When I blew off the candles, I made three wishes, firstly, make progress in English, secondly, make progress in Japanese,Thirdly, do my best to become a good translator in Suntrans. I hope my wisheswill come true in the future.

The third memorable moment for me was The Second Experience Exchanging Forum of Mining Investment 20xx. This is the first time I took part in such a big conference, and I was very excited and willing to do something for it. We did work very hard for this conference, and even asked the Dragon Boat Festival to contribute. This conference gave me a great workexperience and taught me many things: for example how to do advertising and marketing, and a great knowledge in mining industry. The most important is, our young fellows’team work is very brilliant, and I love our company more thanever after this conference.

These are the three most memorable moments for me that I spent with all of you in Suntrans, I hope that we can create moreand more in the future.

Good afternoon, ladies and Gentlemen. Today I’d like to begin with a story.We all know that Chinese, as a nation has a long history about 5000 years, andwe feel very proud of our brilliant and splendid culture. Owing to that, myfather always told me: “you would suffer loss if you don’t follow old people’swords.” Besides I was taught everyday to learn Peking Opera. If some boy who isabout 16 years old sings Peking Opera in the classroom now, I’m afraid he willbe laughed at. JAY’s “Qian Li Zhi Wai ”seems more popular to you.

So we may wonder does our tradition get out of the modern lifeAbsolutelynot. What we need is just a peace of innovation. Here is a question:What isinnovationInnovation was an ancient dream flying into the outer space;innovation today, is the amazing convenience and intelligence that a singlemobile phone in your pocket could bring to you.

There is no more then a battle between tradition and innovation, which isthe rain and water relationship, not only tradition like fish without water,again good innovation will also become the castles in the air, there wont belasting vitality.

Our government, with no exception, regard it as "the soul of our nation." Based on advanced function system and excellentmanagement, factories are booming and enhance overall national economy. Highlydevelopment of electronic commerce is also a significant factor for improvingour living standards. The enlargement of our authority to the recruit ofgraduate and improvement of the conditions of scientists and skilled workers......

From all above, innovation has already became a kind of habit. There is nodoubt we would surprise the world by creating more and more amazing innovationstaking advantages of not only our intelligence but innovation.

Good morning,

my name is ，22 years old, born in province. It is really a great honor to have this opportunity for an interview, I would like to answer whatever you may raise, and I hope I can make a good performance today! Now I will introduce myself briefly by three aspects: Strength; Weakness and Achievements!

Strength:

I feel that my strongest asset is my ability to stick to things to get them done. I feel a real sense of accomplishment when I finish a job and it turns out just as I’d planned. I’ve set some high goals for myself. For example, I want to graduate with highest scores. And at last, I become one of the outstanding graduates in Chong Qing University after a lot of study. Besides, I am good at building mathematical models and analyzing questions with economic methods.

Weakness:

I'm such a perfectionist that I will not stop until a job is well done.

Achievements: I had acquired the first prize by designing models on Mathematical modeling in 20xx; besides, I had help my teachers to analyze the Warrant pricing by varieties methods.

I’m convinced that I can go farther and make greater contribution for my country by careful process of learning, please give me this chance to study in this great university---LiGong University! I promise, I will use my whole ability to improve myself and get the primary accomplishment in my major and do a useful man for our school!

Personally, for today's China, the foundation of the development of Economic is the advancement of transportation equipment. That’s to say, we should do our best to make contribution to improve our transportation equipment to ensure the development of Economic.

Only when our transportation equipment is great enough, our economic can get big achievement.

英文演講稿范文 篇8

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 ed， we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. （examples） 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 unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture.

with the further development of the whole world， the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes 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 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.”

When Iread English novels,I can feel the pleasure from the book which is differentfrom reading the translation. When I speak English, I can feel the confidentfrom my words. When I write English,I can see the beauty which is not the sameas our Chinese...

I love English,it gives me a colorful dream. I hope I can travel around theworld one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people fromdifferent countries. I can see many places of great intrests. I dream that I cango to London,because it is the birth place of English.

I also want to use my good English to introduce our great places to theEnglish spoken people,I hope that they can love our country like us. I know,Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one dayI can speak English very well.

Men have only one chance to live in this world. Life is precious, so istime . The time you hold in your hand is so limited that you can’t afford towaste it. Once you let it slip away, you’ll never chase it back.

Since time is so precious, how can we make the most of it?In my point ofview, judgment and efficiency are the two key ingredients. It is vital to have asense of judgment. Whenever you are to make a decision, you should weigh thepros and cons. Therefore , it is much less possible to be regretful, thus avoidwasting time. And if you are sure you make the right decision, just jump on itand be decisive. Meanwhile, efficiency is also important. Being efficient meansyou are more productive than others. In this way, you are more competitive. Aslongs as you can entirely concentrate on the work you are doing, you willnaturally get your efficiency improved.

As the saying goes, ‘ Time and tide wait for no man’ . Always bear in heartthat time is precious but really limited. So it is wise of you to make carefularrangement of your time.

china, as a developing country, is determined to catch up with and evensurpass the developed ones. i think that one of the best possible ways to do sois to give first priority(優(yōu)先)to the development of culture, science andespecially education.

in modern times, when science and technology are making great progress, theeducation of the work force is of primary importance. moreover, many of thesuccess in advanced countries have demonstrated that a nation 's prosperitymainly depends on the quality of its labour force, namely those who have beenwell educated. www?

in a developing country such as china, our investment in culture, educationand science, and especially elementary education, must enjoy top priority. thisis crucial(決定性的)for china to catch up with the developed nations in today'ssurging(洶涌的) waves of technological revolution. otherwise, the gap between chinaand advanced countries will be widened rather than bridged.

英文演講稿范文 篇15

On what we think we know?

我們以為自己知道的

I'm going to try and explain why it is that perhaps we don't understand as much as we think we do. I'd like to begin with four questions. This is not some sort of cultural thing for the time of year. That's an in-joke, by the way.

我會試著解釋為何 我們知道的東西很可能并沒有我們自以為知道的多 我想從四個問題開始,不是那種今年流行的文化問題 對了，剛剛那句是個圈內(nèi)笑話

But these four questions, actually, are ones that people who even know quite a lot about science find quite hard. And they're questions that I've asked of science television producers, of audiences of science educators -- so that's science teachers -- and also of seven-year-olds, and I find that the seven-year-olds do marginally better than the other audiences, which is somewhat surprising.

不過這四個問題，事實(shí)上 即使是很懂科學(xué)的人也會覺得很難應(yīng)答 我拿這些問題去問科學(xué)節(jié)目制片人 問那些有科學(xué)教育背景的觀眾 也問教科學(xué)的老師還有七歲孩童 我發(fā)現(xiàn)七歲孩童答得比其他人好 這是有些令人驚訝

So the first question, and you might want to write this down, either on a bit of paper, physically, or a virtual piece of paper in your head. And, for viewers at home, you can try this as well.

第一個問題，我建議你把問題記下來 抄在紙上，或想像中的紙上 坐在電腦前的你也可以試著作答.

A little seed weighs next to nothing and a tree weighs a lot, right? I think we agree on that. Where does the tree get the stuff that makes up this chair, right? Where does all this stuff come from?

種籽很輕，而大樹很重，是嗎?我想我們都同意吧，大樹用來制成椅子的東西是從哪來的? 對吧?這些東西都是怎么來的?

(Knocks)

(敲椅聲)

And your next question is, can you light a little torch-bulb with a battery, a bulb and one piece of wire? And would you be able to, kind of, draw a -- you don't have to draw the diagram, but would you be able to draw the diagram, if you had to do it? Or would you just say, that's actually not possible?

問題二，你能否點(diǎn)亮一個小燈泡 只用1個電池、1個燈泡、和1條電線? 那你能畫出上述問題的圖解嗎?不用真的畫 但如果需要的話， 你能畫出來嗎? 還是你會說 這個不可能?

The third question is, why is it hotter in summer than in winter? I think we can probably agree that it is hotter in summer than in winter, but why? And finally, would you be able to -- and you can sort of scribble it, if you like -- scribble a plan diagram of the solar system, showing the shape of the planets' orbits? Would you be able to do that? And if you can, just scribble a pattern.

第三個問題，為什么夏天比冬天熱? 大家應(yīng)該都同意夏天比冬天還熱 但為何如此?最后，你能不能 簡單的勾勒出 太陽系的平面圖... 呈現(xiàn)出行星軌道運(yùn)行的形狀 你可以畫得出來嗎? 你畫得出來的話，就把形狀畫出來

OK. Now, children get their ideas not from teachers, as teachers often think, but actually from common sense, from experience of the world around them, from all the things that go on between them and their peers, and their carers, and their parents, and all of that. Experience. And one of the great experts in this field, of course, was, bless him, Cardinal Wolsey. Be very careful what you get into people's heads because it's virtually impossible to shift it afterwards, right?

好，孩童對事物的概念不是老師教的 老師時常這么以為，但實(shí)際上概念來自于常理 來自于孩童對周遭世界的體驗(yàn) 來自于他們跟同伴彼此交流 還有跟保姆、父母親、所有人交流的經(jīng)驗(yàn) 這個領(lǐng)域中的一個專家，對了，愿他安息 就是渥西主教，他說要你將東西放進(jìn)其他人的鬧袋里的時候要小心 因?yàn)槟切〇|西幾乎不會再改變，對吧?

(Laughter)

(笑聲)

I'm not quite sure how he died, actually. Was he beheaded in the end, or hung?

我不太清楚他的死因，真的 他最后上了斷頭臺?還是被吊死?

(Laughter)

(笑聲)

Now, those questions, which, of course, you've got right, and you haven't been conferring, and so on. And I -- you know, normally, I would pick people out and humiliate, but maybe not in this instance.

現(xiàn)在回到那四個問題，大家都知道是什么問題了 你們彼此之間也沒有討論答案 我平時習(xí)慣點(diǎn)人站起來回答讓他丟臉 不過這次就不點(diǎn)了

A little seed weighs a lot and, basically, all this stuff, 99 percent of this stuff, came out of the air. Now, I guarantee that about 85 percent of you, or maybe it's fewer at TED, will have said it comes out of the ground. And some people, probably two of you, will come up and argue with me afterwards, and say that actually, it comes out of the ground. Now, if that was true, we'd have trucks going round the country, filling people's gardens in with soil, it'd be a fantastic business. But, actually, we don't do that. The mass of this comes out of the air. Now, I passed all my biology exams in Britain. I passed them really well, but I still came out of school thinking that that stuff came out of the ground.

種籽可以很重，基本上所有的這些 99%都來自于空氣 我相信有85%的人，或許在你們TED會比較少 會說木材來自于大地，而有些人 也許你們中的一兩位， 可能結(jié)束后會來找我爭論 說木材其實(shí)是來自于大地 若是如此，那我們就會有讓卡車跑來跑去 把人們的花園都填上土，那會是很棒的生意。 不過實(shí)際上我們不會那么做 因?yàn)槟静牡牟牧洗蟛糠制鋵?shí)是從空氣中來的 我在英國念書時考生物每考必過 我的成績很好，但畢業(yè)后 還是以為木材來自于大地

Second one: can you light a little torch-bulb with a battery bulb and one piece of wire? Yes, you can, and I'll show you in a second how to do that. Now, I have some rather bad news, which is that I had a piece of video that I was about to show you, which unfortunately -- the sound doesn't work in this room, so I'm going to describe to you, in true "Monty Python" fashion, what happens in the video. And in the video, a group of researchers go to MIT on graduation day. We chose MIT because, obviously, that's a very long way away from here, and you wouldn't mind too much, but it sort of works the same way in Britain and in the West Coast of the USA. And we asked them these questions, and we asked those questions of science graduates, and they couldn't answer them. And so, there's a whole lot of people saying, "I'd be very surprised if you told me that this came out of the air. That's very surprising to me." And those are science graduates. And we intercut it with, "We are the premier science university in the world," because of British-like hubris.

你能用一枚電池和一根電線點(diǎn)亮燈泡嗎? 是，你可以，我會示范怎么做。 不過，現(xiàn)在有個壞消息 本來有個影片要給大家看 可惜在這邊聲音放不出來 所以我就口頭描述一下的，用巨蟒劇團(tuán)的表演方式， 影片內(nèi)容是這樣的，在影片里有一群研究員 在畢業(yè)典禮那天去麻省理工學(xué)院 為什么是麻省理工呢?因?yàn)樗�離這里很遠(yuǎn) 大家也就不會太介意 不過場景設(shè)在英國結(jié)果也差不多 或是設(shè)在美國西岸 我們問了麻省理工的畢業(yè)生這四個問題 這些理工科畢業(yè)生也答不出來 而且還有很多學(xué)生表示 “我很驚訝你說木材是從空氣中來的 ”這真的讓我很吃驚“，那些理工的畢業(yè)生這么說 我們用”我們是全球第一的理工大學(xué)“來作影片的結(jié)尾。 因?yàn)橛�國人很傲�?/p>

(Laughter)

(笑聲)

And when we gave graduate engineers that question, they said it couldn't be done. And when we gave them a battery, and a piece of wire, and a bulb, and said, "Can you do it?" They couldn't do it. Right? And that's no different from Imperial College in London, by the way, it's not some sort of anti-American thing going on.

我們拿第二個問題去問碩士畢業(yè)的工程師們 他們說這不可能做得到 我們拿了電池、電線、和燈泡 問他們”你能做到嗎?“，他們沒辦法，是吧? 順道一提，倫敦的帝國學(xué)院的情況估計(jì)也差不多如此 我們不是在做什么反美的事

As if. Now, the reason this matters is we pay lots and lots of money for teaching people -- we might as well get it right. And there are also some societal reasons why we might want people to understand what it is that's happening in photosynthesis. For example, one half of the carbon equation is how much we emit, and the other half of the carbon equation, as I'm very conscious as a trustee of Kew, is how much things soak up, and they soak up carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

雖然聽來頗像。問題的關(guān)鍵是我們花了很多錢 來教育大眾，我們應(yīng)該正確地來做這件事。 其中也有一些社會因素 讓我們想使大眾了解光合作用如何運(yùn)作 例如，有一半的碳儲量是人類排放的 而另一半碳儲量 我相當(dāng)關(guān)切，身為皇家植物園的受托管理人

That's what plants actually do for a living. And, for any Finnish people in the audience, this is a Finnish pun: we are, both literally and metaphorically, skating on thin ice if we don't understand that kind of thing.Now, here's how you do the battery and the bulb. It's so easy, isn't it? Of course, you all knew that. But if you haven't played with a battery and a bulb, if you've only seen a circuit diagram, you might not be able to do that, and that's one of the problems.

是植物吸收多少二氧化碳 植物就是以此維生的 如果在場有芬蘭人，這是芬蘭話的雙關(guān)語 我們無論在實(shí)際上或隱喻上，都是如履薄冰 要是我們不明白那些事 電池和燈泡只要這要做就行 很簡單，不是嗎?你們都懂了 但要是你沒有親手碰過電池和燈泡 如果你只看過電路圖 你可能就做不出來，這是個麻煩

So, why is it hotter in summer than in winter? We learn, as children, that you get closer to something that's hot, and it burns you. It's a very powerful bit of learning, and it happens pretty early on. By extension, we think to ourselves, "Why it's hotter in summer than in winter must be because we're closer to the Sun." I promise you that most of you will have got that. Oh, you're all shaking your heads, but only a few of you are shaking your heads very firmly.

那么，為何夏天比冬天熱? 我們從小就知道，離熱的東西太近 你就被燙到，這真很有效的教育方法 很小的時候大家就學(xué)到了 延伸這個論點(diǎn)，我們覺得夏天比冬天熱 一定是因?yàn)槲覀冸x太陽比較近 我相信大多人都懂了 哦，大家都在搖頭 不過只有幾個人搖得很堅(jiān)定

Other ones are kind of going like this. All right. It's hotter in summer than in winter because the rays from the Sun are spread out more, right, because of the tilt of the Earth. And if you think the tilt is tilting us closer, no, it isn't. The Sun is 93 million miles away, and we're tilting like this, right? It makes no odds. In fact, in the Northern Hemisphere, we're further from the Sun in summer, as it happens, but it makes no odds, the difference.

其他人只是這樣子搖而已，好吧 夏天比冬天熱是因?yàn)樘�陽的輻射線 傳播得比較多，地球傾斜的關(guān)系 如果你以為是朝太陽的方向傾斜，那就錯了 太陽離地球1億5千萬公里，地球傾斜角度大略如此 傾斜不是差別所在，在北半球 夏天時我們離太陽更遠(yuǎn) 跟傾斜沒有關(guān)系

OK, now, the scribble of the diagram of the solar system. If you believe, as most of you probably do, that it's hotter in summer than in winter because we're closer to the Sun, you must have drawn an ellipse. Right? That would explain it, right? Except, in your -- you're nodding -- now, in your ellipse, have you thought, "Well, what happens during the night?"

好，問題四是畫出太陽系的平面圖 如果大家相信，大多數(shù)可能都相信 夏天比冬天熱是因?yàn)榈厍螂x太陽較近 大家應(yīng)該都畫了橢圓形 對吧?這就能解釋了吧? 除非，你點(diǎn)頭了，你畫了個橢圓形 你有想過，「夜晚又是怎么回事」?

Between Australia and here, right, they've got summer and we've got winter, and what -- does the Earth kind of rush towards the Sun at night, and then rush back again? I mean, it's a very strange thing going on, and we hold these two models in our head, of what's right and what isn't right, and we do that, as human beings, in all sorts of fields.

澳洲和美國這邊，澳洲是夏天 這邊是冬天，難道說 地球在晚上會沖向太陽 然后再沖回來?這實(shí)在很奇怪 我們腦中有兩種思考模式，對的和錯的 身為人類，我們在很多領(lǐng)域都這樣思考

So, here's Copernicus' view of what the solar system looked like as a plan. That's pretty much what you should have on your piece of paper. Right? And this is NASA's view. They're stunningly similar. I hope you notice the coincidence here.

左邊是哥白尼畫的太陽系平面圖 跟你們紙上畫的差不多，對吧 右邊是NASA的版本，兩張圖非常相似 我希望大家注意其中的巧合 要是你知道人們有錯誤觀念

What would you do if you knew that people had this misconception, right, in their heads, of elliptical orbits caused by our experiences as children? What sort of diagram would you show them of the solar system, to show that it's not really like that? You'd show them something like this, wouldn't you? It's a plan, looking down from above. But, no, look what I found in the textbooks. That's what you show people, right?

你會怎么做 在他們腦中，??殘蔚墓斕 是他們兒時經(jīng)驗(yàn)教的嗎? 你會給他們看什么樣的太陽系示意圖? 證明太陽系不是他們想的那樣 你會給他們看這種圖嗎? 這是俯瞰的平面圖 可是并非如此，瞧瞧我在教科書里找到的 你會給他們看這種圖對吧?

These are from textbooks, from websites, educational websites -- and almost anything you pick up is like that. And the reason it's like that is because it's dead boring to have a load of concentric circles, whereas that's much more exciting, to look at something at that angle, isn't it? Right?

出自教科書 出自教育網(wǎng)站 你找得到的幾乎都是這種圖 會以這種視角呈現(xiàn)是因?yàn)?只有一堆同心圓太死板無趣 從這種視角看太陽系比較新鮮刺激 不是嗎?

And by doing it at that angle, if you've got that misconception in your head, then that two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional thing will be ellipses. So you've -- it's crap, isn't it really? As we say.

因?yàn)榕�成這種視角 如果你腦中有了這種誤解 用二度空間來呈現(xiàn)三度空間就會變成橢圓形 這真是糟糕，可不是嗎?

So, these mental models -- we look for evidence that reinforces our models. We do this, of course, with matters of race, and politics, and everything else, and we do it in science as well. So we look, just look -- and scientists do it, constantly -- we look for evidence that reinforces our models, and some folks are just all too able and willing to provide the evidence that reinforces the models.

因此，我們尋求證據(jù)來增強(qiáng)我們的心智模式 我們用這種方式處理種族、政治、所有事 當(dāng)然也用這種方式處理科學(xué)，我們只觀看 是科學(xué)家在這么做，我們不斷尋求證據(jù) 來增強(qiáng)我們的心智模式，有些人很有辦法 也樂意提供證據(jù)來增強(qiáng)那些模式

So, being I'm in the United States, I'll have a dig at the Europeans. These are examples of what I would say is bad practice in science teaching centers.

所以我現(xiàn)在人在美國，就會說歐洲人的壞話 這些圖片都是我認(rèn)為不良的科學(xué)教育

These pictures are from La Villette in France and the welcome wing of the Science Museum in London. And, if you look at the, kind of the way these things are constructed, there's a lot of mediation by glass, and it's very blue, and kind of professional -- in that way that, you know, Woody Allen comes up from under the sheets in that scene in "Annie Hall," and said, "God, that's so professional." And that you don't -- there's no passion in it, and it's not hands on, right, and, you know, pun intended.

類似教學(xué)中心，這些圖取自法國維葉特科博館 以及倫敦科博館的迎賓翼展示區(qū) 你看看這些東西建成的模樣 有很多玻璃隔板，藍(lán)光色調(diào)，弄得很專業(yè)似的 那種方式，就像是伍迪艾倫從床單里冒出來 在《安妮霍爾》戲中的那一幕 他說“老天，這真是太專業(yè)了” 這其中沒有熱情，沒有動手參與，是嗎 這是個雙關(guān)，不過也有好的教學(xué)方法

Whereas good interpretation -- I'll use an example from nearby -- is San Francisco Exploratorium, where all the things that -- the demonstrations, and so on, are made out of everyday objects that children can understand, it's very hands-on, and they can engage with, and experiment with. And I know that if the graduates at MIT and in the Imperial College in London had had the battery and the wire and the bit of stuff, and you know, been able to do it, they would have learned how it actually works, rather than thinking that they follow circuit diagrams and can't do it. So good interpretation is more about things that are bodged and stuffed and of my world, right? And things that -- where there isn't an extra barrier of a piece of glass or machined titanium, and it all looks fantastic, OK?

我舉一個例子，離這里很近，舊金山探索館 在那里所有的東西，展示品之類的 都是用孩子能懂的日常用品做成的 都可以動手玩，孩子們可以專心玩好好體驗(yàn) 我知道麻省理工畢業(yè)生 以及倫敦帝國學(xué)院畢業(yè)生 手上有電池電線點(diǎn)亮燈泡的話 他們會明白其中的原理 而不是覺得他們照著電路圖來做是做不到的 好的教學(xué)方法不是 沉溺陶醉在自己世界里對吧? 那些東西也不該被隔著 用玻璃或是鈦制品隔開 看起來很漂亮就好，好嗎?

And the Exploratorium does that really, really well. And it's amateur, but amateur in the best sense, in other words, the root of the word being of love and passion.

舊金山探索館在這點(diǎn)做得非常好 看上去很業(yè)余，但業(yè)余得很對頭 也就是說，根本的出發(fā)點(diǎn)是出自愛和熱情

So, children are not empty vessels, OK?So, as "Monty Python" would have it, this is a bit Lord Privy Seal to say so, but this is -- children are not empty vessels.

所以，孩童不是空瓶子 用“巨蟒劇團(tuán)”的說法 就是有點(diǎn)像英國掌璽大臣會說的 意思是說孩童不是空無一物的瓶子

They come with their own ideas and their own theories, and unless you work with those, then you won't be able to shift them, right?

他們生來就有自己的想法和理念 如果你沒從這些地方著手，就改變不了他們 對吧?

And I probably haven't shifted your ideas of how the world and universe operates, either. But this applies, equally, to matters of trying to sell new technology.

我大概沒有改變大家的想法 對于世界和宇宙到底如何運(yùn)作 不過這些道理同樣可以用在推銷新科技上也

For example, we are, in Britain, we're trying to do a digital switchover of the whole population into digital technology [for television].

例如，在英國，我們試著把全部的電視 都換成新科技的數(shù)位電視

And it's one of the difficult things is that when people have preconceptions of how it all works, it's quite difficult to shift those.

有個難題是 人們對事物運(yùn)作的方式一旦有了成見 就很難去改變

So we're not empty vessels; the mental models that we have as children persist into adulthood. Poor teaching actually does more harm than good.

我們不是空瓶子，我們保有心智模式 從幼年到成年一直都存在 不良的教學(xué)是弊多于利

In this country and in Britain, magnetism is understood better by children before they've been to school than afterwards, OK? Same for gravity, two concepts, so it's -- which is quite humbling, as a, you know, if you're a teacher, and you look before and after, that's quite worrying. They do worse in tests afterwards, after the teaching.

在美國和英國，在磁力知識上 孩童在就學(xué)前學(xué)得比較好 重力知識也一樣，兩個不同概念，這實(shí)在可悲 如果你是個老師，看見受教前和受教后的差別 實(shí)在令人憂心，學(xué)童在受教后考得更差

And we collude. We design tests, or at least in Britain, so that people pass them. Right? And governments do very well. They pat themselves on the back. OK?

我們都是共犯，我們設(shè)計(jì)測驗(yàn)方式 至少在英國是這樣，好讓人們能通過考試 政府也幫了不少忙，他們推波助瀾 懂嗎?

We collude, and actually if you -- if someone had designed a test for me when I was doing my biology exams, to really understand, to see whether I'd understood more than just kind of putting starch and iodine together and seeing it go blue, and really understood that plants took their mass out of the air, then I might have done better at science. So the most important thing is to get people to articulate their models.

我們都是共犯 如果有人替我設(shè)計(jì)測驗(yàn) 在我要考生物的時候 讓我能真正明白，明白我是否真的懂了 不是只在淀粉中加入碘液 看著反應(yīng)呈現(xiàn)藍(lán)色 而且能真正明白植物是從空氣中茁壯的 我的科學(xué)可能就會學(xué)得比較好 所以，最重要的是要讓人們能表述清楚他們的模型

Your homework is -- you know, how does an aircraft's wing create lift? An obvious question, and you'll have an answer now in your heads. And the second question to that then is, ensure you've explained how it is that planes can fly upside down. Ah ha, right.

回家作業(yè)是，機(jī)翼是怎樣幫助飛機(jī)起飛的? 這問題很好懂，大家心中也有答案了 注意事項(xiàng)是 你要確保自己能解釋為何飛機(jī)頭向下的時候也能飛， 對吧

Second question is, why is the sea blue? All right? And you've all got an idea in your head of the answer. So, why is it blue on cloudy days? Ah, see.

問題二，海為何是藍(lán)色的? 大家心中應(yīng)該都有答案了 那么，為什么陰天時海還是藍(lán)的?看吧 (笑聲) 我一直想在美國講這句話

(Laughter)

(笑聲)

I've always wanted to say that in this country. (Laughter) Finally, my plea to you is to allow yourselves, and your children, and anyone you know, to kind of fiddle with stuff, because it's by fiddling with things that you, you know, you complement your other learning. It's not a replacement, it's just part of learning that's important. Thank you very much. Now -- oh, oh yeah, go on then, go on.

最后，我希望大家能讓自己，還有孩子 以及任何你認(rèn)識的人，去動手接觸事物 因?yàn)橛H自接觸了事物，你知道的 你就補(bǔ)足了其他方面的學(xué)習(xí)不足，這不是替換 這只是學(xué)習(xí)中很重要的一部分 謝謝大家 那么，噢，沒關(guān)系，繼續(xù)吧

(Applause)

it is true that most of us value honesty highly. however, nowadays we often confront confidence crisis such as cheating, overcharging, fake commodities and so on. i think that we should be honest because being honest is not only beneficial to ourselves but also to others and the whole society. the reasons can be listed as follows.firstly, only honest people can be truly respected by the others and can make more friends over a long period of time.

secondly, honesty, which is the traditional virtue of the chinese people, can make our life easier and more harmonious. thirdly, honesty can make our society more stable. a case in point is that singapore, a society featuring trustworthiness and integrity, has a comparatively low criminal rate.

responsbility can be understood in many ways. for the parents , they have had the responsibility for caring for and fostering their children since the birth of their baby.for teachers,both in kindergartens and colleges,they also should be responsible for the study and life of their students,that is to say,teahers are the second parents of children somewhile.

for us,as a friend of others,it is our responsibility to help our friends when they are in trouble or faced with difficulties. each one has the different responsibily based on their roles but we must take it for granted that we are responsible for the society.

英文演講稿范文 篇18

April Fool's Day is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fool's errands, and fool the unsuspecting. No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in France.

The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in France. New Year's was celebrated on March 25 and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When New Year's Day as changed from March 25 to January 1st in the mid-1560's by King Charles IX, there were some people who still celebrated it on April 1st and those people were called April Fools.

Pranks performed on April Fool's Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoe's untied!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommate's alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fool's Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"

April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!

To be sure, we are behind, and will be behind for some time in manned flight. But we do not intend to stay behind, and in this decade, we shall make up and move ahead.

The growth of our science and education will be enriched by new knowledge of our universe and environment, by new techniques of learning and mapping and observation, by new tools and computers for industry, medicine, the home as well as the school. Technical institutions, such as Rice, will reap the harvest of these gains.

And finally, the space effort itself, while still in its infancy, has already created a great number of new companies, and tens of thousands of new jobs. Space and related industries are generating new demands in investment and skilled personnel, and this city and this state, and this region, will share greatly in this growth. What was once the furthest outpost on the old frontier of the West will be the furthest outpost on the new frontier of science and space. Houston, your city of Houston, with its Manned Spacecraft Center, will become the heart of a large scientific and engineering community. During the next 5 years the National Aeronautics and Space Administration expects to double the number of scientists and engineers in this area, to increase its outlays for salaries and expenses to $60 million a year; to invest some $200 million in plant and laboratory facilities; and to direct or contract for new space efforts over $1 billion from this center in this city.

To be sure, all this costs us all a good deal of money. This year's space budget is three times what it was in January 1961, and it is greater than the space budget of the previous eight years combined. That budget now stands at $5,400 million a year--a staggering sum, though somewhat less than we pay for cigarettes and cigars every year.

英文演講稿范文 篇20

I don’t remember the exact year I first read The Little Prince . Though thegolden snake in the book plays a cameo role , I never forget the scene that heflashed kissed gently on the little prince’s ankle. It made me be afraid toreread this book.

Later, I listened a Michael Wong’s song named Fairy-tale Story, the princein his song is different from the prince in The Little Prince, the prince in thesong is the same as Andersen’s tales’ princes, they all have happy endings.

However, I think The Little Prince is a sad story. There is a saying: Thereare a thousand Hamlets in a thousand peoples eyes. Now, let me talk about myreading feeling. This simple story flies over every corner of the world: a pilot(the narrator) who had an accident with his plane and crashed in the Desert ofSahara then he met the little prince from the planet B-612, and the narratorlistened little prince’s travel experience of seven planets. On the sevenplanets, he met a variety of persons. They are the king, the conceited man, thebusinessman, the tippler, the lamplighter, the geographer and so on.

The Little Prince is a story belongs to adults who have childlikeinnocence.because children don’t understand the little prince’s deepsadness.This is not so much a fairy tale, as it is a tragedy. This story tellsthe grow-ups’ world is full of empty，lost and loneliness with kids’ perspective.Among the story, the alcoholic is impressive. He was surrounded by a pile ofbeer bottles when the little prince saw him, and prince asked him why he isdrinking, but he answered he want to forget his shame of drinking. This shortplanet visit plunged little prince into deep puzzled. He think the grow-ups arecertainly very, very odd. In kids' eyes, beautiful things must look with heart.But the adults pay more attention on things’ appearance that is just a shell andthey don’t believe the eyes are blind and the heart is true.

Through this story, it also made me understand what’s the love---love'smore mineral, more dense, more bitter and more weighty than the earth'sprofoundest matter.

When I first read The Little Prince, I can’t understand the mean of loveand never to think why should the little prince leave alone since he love hisrose so deeply. For years, I reread the story and think about it. The simpletrue was first love. The little prince didn’t know how to love and It wasdifficult to make him understand the rose’s heart, so it may lead tomisunderstanding and hurts from time to time. He leaved his planet because hecan not accept the rose and himself.

This is why the little prince don’t know he have to leave : at that time,he had no idea he was in it. The little prince don’t understand the meaning oftame until he met the fox later. Then he produced the endless yearning for theroses and realized his responsibility.

"Do you want to be domesticated?" For me, this is a profound question. Inthe book, the little prince met a fox and invited the fox to play with him, buthe was refused. The fox told him that he was not tamed. “what does thatmean--tame?” little prince asked. The fox answered:” it means to establish ties:to me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundredthousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part,have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousandother foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me , you willbe unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.”

Gradually the little prince was beginning to understand, because heremembered his rose and he thought his rose had tamed him. So he chose to goback to his planet in the end. But to the fox, the little prince’s farewell willmake her sad, but the hurts because of love, she should learn to accept itgradually. I believe there are full of hurts within serious and true love.

As long as the little prince flied to different planets and met a varietyof persons can he understand himself and

his rose. So I think traveling is a good way to experience life.
