Smile for life
First, ladies and gentlemen, please look at my face. Do you know what I’m doing? Yes, quite right, I’m smiling.
I like smiling, because it makes me more confident and more popular. Don’t you think it important?
Can you imagine a world without smiles? Can you bear seeing sad faces here and there? What a gloomy world it would without smiles!
But people sometimes overlook the importance of smiling since it is so simple. It seems that people are always in such a hurry for their own business that they complain a lot about the lack of happiness in life and some people even want to be Harry Porter to learn the magic spell of happiness.
Now and here I should that, ladies and gentlemen, every one of us knows exactly well what the spell actually is and the spell is so simple and just at hand. What is it? That’s smile.
Smile is such a magic spell. It is a kind of emotional contact. It makes strangers becomes friends. It makes parents and children understand each other better and it makes the love between lovers deeper.
Smile is such a magic spell. It’s also a kind of encouragement. It makes people feel warm in ice and snow. It gives thirsty people power to walk on in a dessert. It makes cowards become brave and it makes people see hope in desperate situations.
So please remember ‘Smile & make your life brighter’ and smile for life. Every time you smile you give yourself a perfect chance to enjoy life. Every time you smile, you bring the brilliant sunshine to the whole world around you as well as to yourself.
Nike tells us Just do it. So I will say: Just smile it.
为生活微笑
首先，女士们、先生们，请注意看我的脸。你们知道我在干什么吗?对，很正确，我在微笑。 我喜欢微笑。因为它可以使我看上去更自信、更受人欢迎。 难道你们不认为微笑很重要吗?
你能想象一个没有微笑的世界吗?你能忍受整天看着一张张悲哀的脸四处游荡吗?没有微笑的世界将是多么阴郁!
但是人们有时会忽略微笑的重要，因为它太平凡了。人们似乎总是陷在一阵为各自工作而忙碌的慌乱之中而时常抱怨生活中缺少欢乐。甚至还有些人希望成为哈利·波特，学会欢乐的魔咒。
女士们、先生们，现在在这里我要告诉你们的是：“其实我们每一个人都十分清楚欢乐魔咒的真正内容，而且咒语本身也是普通至极、唾手可得。是什么?那就是微笑。
微笑就是这样一条神奇的咒语。它可以使陌生人成为朋友，它可以使父母和子女互相理解，它也可以使恋人之间的爱情更加深厚。
微笑就是这样一条神奇的咒语。它还是一种鼓舞与激励。它让冰雪中艰难求索的人感到温暖;它给沙漠中干渴将死的人以继续前进的力量;它让懦夫变的.勇敢;它让人们在绝望中看到希望的曙光。
所以请记住：“微笑让你的生活更美好”并为生活微笑吧!每一微笑都会给你一个享受生活的绝佳良机;每一次微笑都会给你和全世界带来灿烂的阳光!
让我们模仿着NIKE的广告语说：“Just smile it!”
英语演讲稿2
Everyone has his own dream, which can be realized or not and which can be different from time to time. However, there must be a long –term one in one’s mind. In other words, it is not easy to be realized. I have a dream: to pass CET-6 before I graduate from the university. It’s maybe easy for most of my classmates, but to me it is as difficult as cracking the hardest nut in the world. I have been studying English for about 10 years.
It should not be the No.1 task in my university agenda, but too many failures forced me to do so. I entered one of the most famous universities in China with the almost lowest English mark among all my students. I was really disappointed about that.Although I was not good at English when I was in the middle school, it was not at least about the average. I had no strength to face the frustration. After a semester’s study I was the lowest indeed. I have never cried for study before, but this time I shed tears. Since then I made up my mind to pass CET-6 before my graduation.
Glanced back to my English studying experience, I realized that interest is one of the key factors to grasp knowledge. I study English only for the examination before, but not the language itself. That is the weakest point of me. I must overcome it so as to realize my dream. I made a plan: read one story until I can recite it each day; listen to the tapes related to the books as well.
English is not so disgusting for me now. I will persist in doing so even after I pass CET-6. I wish my English would be as good as my native language in the future.

Hello everyone, the topic of my speech today is: Firm Faith, Transcend Yourself.
Helen Keller has saying vividly: "When a man feels the urge to fly high, he will never be satisfied with climbing on the ground." It is with lofty ideals that there is With this belief, she accepted the challenge of life and created the miracle of life.
She, a weak woman who is blind, deaf, and dumb, graduated from Harvard University, and used all her strength to run around to tell her that she built a charity organization for the benefit of the disabled, and was selected as one of the top ten American heroes and idols in the 20th century. Ideals and beliefs are like raging fires, which made her walk out of darkness and silence. Ideals and beliefs are like huge wings, helping her fly to the sky.
In a sense, people do not live in the material world, but in the spiritual world, in ideals and beliefs. As far as human life is concerned, if you want to survive, you only need a bowl of rice and a glass of water; but if you want to live a wonderful life, you must have spirit, lofty ideals and firm beliefs.
Ideals and beliefs make poor people rich, make people in darkness see light, make people in desperation see hope, and make dreams a reality.
Here I will tell you a story:
In the vast desert, an expedition team is trekking with difficulty. The scorching sun above the head was like fire, and the expedition team members were thirsty and sweating like rain. Worst of all, they ran out of water. Water is the belief that they rely on for survival. When the belief is shattered, one by one seems to have collapsed, lost their souls, and invariably turned their attention to the captain. This is how to do?
The captain took out a kettle from his waist, raised his hands, shook it vigorously, and shouted in surprise, "Oh, I still have a kettle of water here! But before crossing the desert, no one can drink it."
The heavy water bottles were passed from the hands of the team members one by one. The face that was on the verge of despair showed a firm look again. The belief that they must get out of the desert supported them to stumble and move forward step by step. Looking at the kettle, they pursed their chapped lips, suddenly adding strength.
Finally, they escaped from death and walked out of the boundless desert. When everyone wept with joy, they stared at the kettle that gave them the support of their beliefs for a long time.
The captain carefully unscrewed the lid of the kettle, but what was slowly flowing out was wisps of sand. He said sincerely: "As long as there is a firm belief in the heart, dry sand can sometimes become clear spring water."
Black Martin Luther King famously said: "No one in this world can bring you down. If your own beliefs still stand." Yes, even in the most difficult times, do not extinguish the faith in your heart. torches.
Classmates, no matter what your current grades are, no matter what your current foundation is, as long as you have firm beliefs and surpass yourself, you will have the direction to work hard, you will have the goal of struggle, and you will have the motivation to live. You have the hope of success!
尊敬的领导、老师，亲爱的同学们：
大家好，今天我演讲的题目是：坚定信念，超越自我。
海伦·凯勒有这样一句非常形象而生动的话：“当一个人感觉到有高飞的冲动时，他将再也不会满足于在地上爬。”正是有了远大的理想，正是有一种信念，她接受了生命的挑战，创造了生命的奇迹。
她，盲聋哑集于一身的'弱女子竟然毕业于哈佛大学，并用生命的全部力量奔走呼告，建起了一家家慈善机构，为残疾人造福，被评选为20世纪美国十大英雄偶像。理想和信念像熊熊燃烧的烈火使她才走出黑暗，走出死寂，理想和信念像巨大的羽翼，帮助她飞上云天。
从某种意义上说，人不是活在物质世界里，而是活在精神世界里，活在理想与信念之中。对于人的生命而言，要存活，只要一碗饭，一杯水就可以了;但是要想活得精彩，就要有精神，就要有远大的理想和坚定的信念。
理想信念使贫困的人变成富翁，使黑暗中的人看见光明，使绝境中的人看到希望，使梦想变成现实。
下面我给大家讲一个故事：
浩瀚的沙漠中，一支探险队在艰难地跋涉。头顶骄阳似火，烤得探险队员们口干舌燥，挥汗如雨。最糟糕的是，他们没有水了。水就是他们赖以生存的信念，信念破灭了，一个个像塌了架，丢了魂，不约而同地将目光投向队长。这可怎么办?
队长从腰间取出一个水壶，两手举起来，用力晃了晃，惊喜地喊道：“哦，我这里还有一壶水!但穿越沙漠前，谁也不能喝。”
沉甸甸的水壶从队员们的手中依次传递，原来那种濒临绝望的脸上又显露出坚定的神色，一定要走出沙漠的信念支撑他们踉跄着，一步一步地向前挪动。看着那水壶，他们抿抿干裂的嘴唇，陡然增添了力量。
终于，他们死里逃生，走出茫茫无垠的沙漠，大家喜极而泣之时，久久凝视着那个给了他们信念支撑的水壶。
队长小心翼翼地拧开水壶盖，缓缓流出的却是一缕缕沙子。他诚挚地说：“只要心里有坚定的信念，干枯的沙子有时也可以变成清冽的泉水。”
黑人马丁·路德金有句名言：“这个世界上，没有人能够使你倒下。如果你自己的信念还站立着的话。”是的，即使在最困难的时候，也不要熄灭心中信念的火把。
同学们，不管你现在的成绩怎么样，不管你现在的基础怎么样，只要坚定信念，超越自我，你就有了努力的方向，你就有了奋斗的目标，你就有了生活的动力，你就有了成功的希望!

Good aftemoon, everyone !
The topic of my speech today is " Being a Good Listener". Good listening can always show
respect, promote understanding, and improve interpersonal relationship.
Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children, so they will understand
them better, and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their
students, then they can meet their needs better, and place themselves in a good relationship with their
students; students should listen more to their classmates, thus they will help and learn from each
other, and a friendship is likely to be formed.
What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others. Show your respect and never
stop others till they finish their talk. Show you are interested by a suppmtive silence or a knowing
smile. Be open-minded to different opinions even though you don't like them..ln a word, good
listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.
Thank you for your listening!

Everyone has a dream, but not everyone can achieve your dream, that dream and reality are too far apart, seems to dream is out of reach, is the unclear main, in the face of cruel reality and dream will only make our steadfast died. Actually hinder our progress is oneself, feel distant dream is their own, think of dream bumpy road is their own, think is hang him yourself, give up the dream is ourselves, we see our circle in a design of the fence, the limitations in the boundaries of their thinking, and then how to also don't break this gap, be your own captive, lost to yourself.
Someone says: the heart has how old, stage has how old, no can't do, only unexpected. As long as we think of is said to myself, I can, I'll do. Courage to face their own, beyond their own pattern, failures, drain, start again. If you lose, never recovered, then you can't, regret lifelong.

there is an old saying,” haste makes waste.” it is the experience of our ancestors; however, it is correct in many cases even today.
usually, if you act faster, you can reach your goals earlier. but it isn’t always the case. if you emphasize only on speed but ignore the quality of your work, your effect will be the opposite.
suppose you are preparing for your final examination. there are a lot of exercises to do and many notes to memorize. the fact that you have not enough time makes you very worried. therefore, you have read and write continuously, without rest, without sleep, without relaxation. the result is that your brain is less and less efficient, your process is slower and slower. the situation goes from bad to worse. all your efforts lead to nothing.
on the contrary, if you do your preparations with a calculated plan and carry out the plan step by step, your work will be effective. consequently, you will take part in the exams confidently with good preparations.
whatever you do, please remember the saying----haste makes waste. if you understand it and apply it to your study or work, you’ll benefit a lot form it.

whether there’s afterlife, the answer has never been the same. the atheists deny after life, believing that our life is no more than from the cradle to the grave. they may care about their illustrious names after death; they may feel attached to the affection of their offspring, but they never lay their hopes on their afterlife. they may also say that good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil, but they don’t really believe any retribution in their after life.
however, in the religious world or among the superstitious people, the belief in afterlife is very popular. they do not only believe in afterlife, but thousands of reincarnations as well. in the mysterious world, there are the paradise and the hell, the celestial beings and the gods, the buddha and the bodhisattvas.
maybe they really believed it, or maybe they just wanted to make use of people’s veneration, the ancient emperors always declared that they were the real dragons, the sons of god, while the royal ministers claimed to be the reincarnations of various constellations. but can the stars reincarnate?
many people burn incense and kowtow, do good deeds and strive for virtues, not just for the present, but mainly to let god see their sincerity so as to be reborn into a better afterlife, or to achieve the highest enlightenment after several lives of practice. they do believe in afterlife. but ii can’t help asking: suppose there were no afterlife, would you still do good deeds and strive for virtues? and if god does not see what you are doing, would you still be so upright and selfless? if you work, not for serving the public and liberating the others, but just for a better afterlife of your own, isn’t it a little too selfish? comparing with this kind of believers, those who don’t believe in afterlife, but still keep doing good deeds, are the most sincere and honest philanthropists, because they do them not for themselves but for other.
you may wonder if i believe in afterlife. my answer is: i know nothing about my previous life, so i dare not make improper comments on afterlife. but i do hope there’s afterlife! because our present life is so short that so many things slip away before our proper understanding. i have so many dreams, so many wishes, so many ambitions, as well as so many regrets and concerns. if there were no afterlife, all of them will remain unrealized!
i’m not contented with the present commonplace life, i’m very much attached to the affections that should have been mine but have been washed away by the hurrying time, and i yearn for the perfection and maturity if i could start all over again. so believe it or not, i’d rather there were afterlife.

Ronald Reagan: Remarks at the Brandenburg GateThank you.
Thank you, very much.
Chancellor Kohl, Governing Mayor Diepgen, ladies and gentlemen: Twenty four years ago, President John F.
Kennedy visited Berlin, and speaking to the people of this city and the world at the city hall.
Well since then two other presidents have come, each in his turn to Berlin.
And today, I, myself, make my second visit to your city.We come to Berlin, we American Presidents, because its our duty to speak in this place of freedom.
But I must confess, we’re drawn here by other things as well; by the feeling of history in this city -- more than 500 years older than our own nation; by the beauty of the Grunewald and the Teirgarten; most of all, by your courage and determination.
Perhaps the composer, Paul Linke, understood something about American Presidents.
You see, like so many presidents before me, I come here today because wherever I go, whatever I do: “Ich hab noch einen hoffer in Berlin” [I still have a suitcase in Berlin.]Our gathering today is being broadcast throughout Western Europe and North America.om their air-raid shelters to find devastation.
Thousands of miles away, the people of the United States reached out to help.
And in 1947 Secretary of State -- as youve been told --George Marshall announced the creation of what would become known as the Marshall Plan.
Speaking precisely 40 years ago this month, he said: Our policy is directed not against any country or doctrine, but against hunger, poverty, desperation, and chaos.In the Reichstag a few moments ago, I saw a display commemorating this 40th anniversary of the Marshall Plan.
I was struck by the sign on a burnt-out, gutted structure that was being rebuilt.
I understand that Berliners of my own generation can remember seeing signs like it dotted throughout the western sectors of the city.
The sign read simply: The Marshall Plan is helping here to strengthen the free world.
A strong, free world in the West, that dream became real.
Japan rose from ruin to become an economic giant.
Adenauer, Erhard, Reuter, and other leaders understood the practical importance of liberty -- that just as truth can flourish only when the journalist is given freedom of speech, so prosperity can come about only when the farmer and businessman enjoy economic freedom.
From 1950 to 1960 alone, the standard of living in West Germany and Berlin doubled.Where four decades ago there was rubble, today in West Berlin there is the greatest industrial output of any city in Germany -- busy office blocks, fine homes and apartments, proud avenues, and the spreading lawns of parkland.
Where a citys culture seemed to have been destroyed, today there are two great universities, orchestras and an opera, countless theaters, and museums.
Where there was want, today theres abundance -- food, clothing, automobiles -- the wonderful goods of the Kudamm.
From devastation, from utter ruin, you Berliners have, in freedom, rebuilt a city that once again ranks as one of the greatest on earth.
The Soviets may have had other plans.
But my friends, there were a few things the Soviets didnt count on -- Berliner Herz, Berliner Humor, ja, und Berliner Schnauze.
[Berliner heart, Berliner humor, yes, and a Berliner Schnauze.**]In the 1950s -- In the 1950s Khrushchev predicted: We will bury you.
But in the West today, we see a free world that has achieved a level of prosperity and well-being unprecedented in all human history.
In the Communist world, we see failure, technological backwardness, declining standards of health, *even want of the most basic kind -- too little food.
Even today, the Soviet Union still cannot feed itself.
After these four decades, then, there stands before the entire world one great and inescapable conclusion: Freedom leads to prosperity.
Freedom replaces the ancient hatreds among the nations with comity and peace.
Freedom is the victor.*And now -- now the Soviets themselves may, in a limited way, be coming to understand the importance of freedom.
We hear much from Moscow about a new policy of reform and openness.
Some political prisoners have been released.
Certain foreign news broadcasts are no longer being jammed.
Some economic enterprises have been permitted to operate with greater freedom from state control.*Are these the beginnings of profound changes in the Soviet state? Or are they token gestures, intended to raise false hopes in the West, *or to strengthen the Soviet system without changing it? We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty -- the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace.There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace.
General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate.
Mr.Gorbachev, open this gate.
Mr.Gorbachev -- Mr.Gorbachev, tear down this wall!I understand the fear of war and the pain of division that afflict this continent, and I pledge to you my countrys efforts to help overcome these burdens.
To be sure, we in the West must resist Soviet expansion.
So, we must maintain defenses of unassailable strength.
Yet we seek peace; so we must strive to reduce arms on both sides.
Beginning 10 years ago, the Soviets challenged the Western alliance with a grave new threat, hundreds of new and more deadly SS-20 nuclear missiles capable of striking every capital in Europe.
The Western alliance responded by committing itself to a counter-deployment (unless the Soviets agreed to negotiate a better solution) -- namely, the elimination of such weapons on both sides.
For many months, the Soviets refused to bargain in earnestness.
As the alliance, in turn, prepared to go forward with its counter-deployment, there were difficult days, days of protests like those during my 1982 visit to this city; and the Soviets later walked away from the table.But through it all, the alliance held firm.
And I invite those who protested then -- I invite those who protest today -- to mark this fact: Because we remained strong, the Soviets came back to the table.
Because we remained strong, today we have within reach the possibility, not merely of limiting the growth of arms, but of eliminating, for the first time, an entire class of nuclear weapons from the face of the earth.As I speak, NATO ministers are meeting in Iceland to review the progress of our proposals for eliminating these weapons.
At the talks in Geneva, we have also proposed deep cuts in strategic offensive weapons.
And the Western allies have likewise made far-reaching proposals to reduce the danger of conventional war and to place a total ban on chemical weapons.
While we pursue these arms reductions, I pledge to you that we will maintain the capacity to deter Soviet aggression at any level at which it might occur.
And in cooperation with many of our allies, the United States is pursuing the Strategic Defense Initiative -- research to base deterrence not on the threat of offensive retaliation, but on defenses that truly defend; on systems, in short, that will not target populations, but shield them.
By these means we seek to increase the safety of Europe and all the world.
But we must remember a crucial fact: East and West do not mistrust each other because we are armed; we are armed because we mistrust each other.
And our differences are not about weapons but about liberty.
When President Kennedy spoke at the City Hall those 24 years ago, freedom was encircled; Berlin was under siege.
And today, despite all the pressures upon this city, Berlin stands secure in its liberty.
And freedom itself is transforming the globe.In the Philippines, in South and Central America, democracy has been given a rebirth.
Throughout the Pacific, free markets are working miracle after miracle of economic growth.
In the industrialized nations, a technological revolution is taking place, a revolution marked by rapid, dramatic advances in computers and telecommunications.
In Europe, only one nation and those it controls refuse to join the community of freedom.
Yet in this age of redoubled economic growth, of information and innovation, the Soviet Union faces a choice: It must make fundamental changes, or it will become obsolete.Today thus represents a moment of hope.
We in the West stand ready to cooperate with the East to promote true openness, to break down barriers that separate people, to create a safer, freer world.
And surely there is no better place than Berlin, the meeting place of East and West, to make a start.
Free people of Berlin: Today, as in the past, the United States stands for the strict observance and full implementation of all parts of the Four Power Agreement of 1971.
Let us use this occasion, the 750th anniversary of this city, to usher in a new era, to seek a still fuller, richer life for the Berlin of the future.
Together, let us maintain and develop the ties between the Federal Republic and the Western sectors of Berlin, which is permitted by the 1971 agreement.
And I invite Mr.Gorbachev: Let us work to bring the Eastern and Western parts of the city closer together, so that all the inhabitants of all Berlin can enjoy the benefits that come with life in one of the great cities of the world.To open Berlin still further to all Europe, East and West, let us expand the vital air access to this city, finding ways of making commercial air service to Berlin more convenient, more comfortable, and more economical.
We look to the day when West Berlin can become one of the chief aviation hubs in all central Europe.
With -- with our French and British partners, the United States is prepared to help bring international meetings to Berlin.
It would be only fitting for Berlin to serve as the site of United Nations meetings, or world conferences on human rights and arms control or other issues that call for international cooperation.There is no better way to establish hope for the future than to enlighten young minds, and we would be honored to sponsor summer youth exchanges, cultural events, and other programs for young Berliners from the East.
Our French and British friends, Im certain, will do the same.
And its my hope that an authority can be found in East Berlin to sponsor visits from young people of the Western sectors.
One final proposal, one close to my heart: Sport represents a source of enjoyment and ennoblement, and you may have noted that the Republic of Korea -- South Korea -- has offered to permit certain events of the 1988 Olympics to take place in the North.
International sports competitions of all kinds could take place in both parts of this city.
And what better way to demonstrate to the world the openness of this city than to offer in some future year to hold the Olympic games here in Berlin, East and West.In these four decades, as I have said, you Berliners have built a great city.
Youve done so in spite of threats -- the Soviet attempts to impose the East-mark, the blockade.
Today the city thrives in spite of the challenges implicit in the very presence of this wall.
What keeps you here? Certainly theres a great deal to be said for your fortitude, for your defiant courage.
But I believe theres something deeper, something that involves Berlins whole look and feel and way of life -- not mere sentiment.
No one could live long in Berlin without being completely disabused of illusions.
Something, instead, that has seen the difficulties of life in Berlin but chose to accept them, that continues to build this good and proud city in contrast to a surrounding totalitarian presence, that refuses to release human energies or aspirations, something that speaks with a powerful voice of affirmation, that says yes to this city, yes to the future, yes to freedom.
In a word, I would submit that what keeps you in Berlin is love.Love both profound and abiding.
Perhaps this gets to the root of the matter, to the most fundamental distinction of all between East and West.
The totalitarian world produces backwardness because it does such violence to the spirit, thwarting the human impulse to create, to enjoy, to worship.
The totalitarian world finds even symbols of love and of worship an affront.
Years ago, before the East Germans began rebuilding their churches, they erected a secular structure: the television tower at Alexander Platz.
Virtually ever since, the authorities have been working to correct what they view as the towers one major flaw: treating the glass sphere at the top with paints and chemicals of every kind.
Yet even today when the sun strikes that sphere, that sphere that towers over all Berlin, the light makes the sign of the cross.
There in Berlin, like the city itself, symbols of love, symbols of worship, cannot be suppressed.
As I looked out a moment ago from the Reichstag, that embodiment of German unity, I noticed words crudely spray-painted upon the wall, perhaps by a young Berliner: This wall will fall.
Beliefs become reality.Yes, across Europe, this wall will fall, for it cannot withstand faith; it cannot withstand the truth.
The wall cannot withstand freedom.
And I would like, before I close, to say one word.
I have read, and I have been questioned since Ive been here about certain demonstrations against my coming.
And I would like to say just one thing, and to those who demonstrate so.
I wonder if they have ever asked themselves that if they should have the kind of government they apparently seek, no one would ever be able to do what theyre doing again.Thank you and God bless you all.
Thank you.

Why eArts in Shanghai? by Prof.Shen GenlinElectronic art brings together art and technology, particularly advanced technology, to produce a revolutionary form of art. It is a new and innovative kind of art, partly developed by artists, partly by technologists and engineers, that reimagines the relationship between consumer and producer and allows for ‘mutual interaction’ between the people and art.
Electronic art can produce an entirely new kind aesthetics, but it is also the case that the electronic arts are tied to a new kind of economy and to new forms of production and if harnessed. If harnessed, electronic art can raise the competitive strength of a modern city. In the context of contemporary global development, the digital domain is a resource that cannot be underestimated.
Even at such an early stage of development, the range of digital practices is immense and includes: digital images including digital painting, digital photography and digital video, computer-made painting and holographs, CD-ROM art and the new realities in electronic games, internet art including hypertext, remote control robot technology, human interfacing which include bio-systems technologies and applied bioengineering technology, computerized music and sound art. Digital practices can also shape and influence certain types of drama, dance and installation art forms.
Countries confirmed as participating in the Shanghai eArts Festival The confirmed Shanghai eArts Festival participating economies include Britain, France, Germany, Australia, Italy, Japan, Korea, America, Spain, as well as Taiwan and Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong. Numerous leading electronic arts institutions and artists from around the world will participate in the Shanghai eArts Festival.
The 20xx Shanghai eArts Festival is the first new cultural program Shanghai has founded and represents an important new cultural development trajectory in the city. It will be held each year, every October, with the central activity venue set in Pudong. The Shanghai eArts Festival is now centered at the Pudong Government Huamu Cultural Center, at the recommendation of international experts and the leaders of the Municipal Committee Publicity Department. The purpose is to encourage Pudong (Huamu) to become a new cultural center of Shanghai, to enrich the cultural content of Pudong, and to create a new cultural base for Pudong’s development. The range of the 20xx Shanghai eArts Festival activities may well constitute the largest and most ambitious electronic arts festival in today’s world. It is hoped that the Shanghai eArts Festival will generate a warm response from the world culture and arts communities and receive a large amount of positive attention.

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks， red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will， a quality of the imagination， a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity， of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often e_ists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin， but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry， fear， self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16， there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonder， the unfailing childlike appetite of what's ne_t and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty， hope， cheer， courage and power from men and from the Infinite， so long are you young.
When the aerials are down， and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism， then you are grown old， even at 20， but as long as your aerials are up， to catch waves of optimism， there is hope you may die young at 80.

Hello everyone!
I don't know if you remember Goethe once said: There is a long time between today and tomorrow; "Learn to do things quickly while you are still in the spirit".
For example, the luxury giant Louis Vuitton, the wonderful ups and downs of his life turning point amazed future generations. Born into a carpenter's family in the countryside, before the age of 14, his most contact was with flying sawdust. His life took a turn when he was 14, and he became a luxury giant.
When Louis Vuitton was 14 years old, two fashionably dressed young men came to the village. They laughed at the villagers for their old-fashioned clothes, "Why does the moon look so dirty in this ghost place"! These words stabbed Louis Vuitton deeply, and he was determined to go to Paris and see what the difference was between the people and the moon. After wandering all the way, Louis Vuitton finally came to Paris, but found that the moon here is not as clean and complete as that of his hometown, and the people's dresses made him an eye-opener. The destitute child lives in extreme hardship in Paris with no family and no reason. Later, he was starved to the door of a high-end luggage store, and the good-hearted owner rescued him. When he woke up, he seized the opportunity and asked the owner to take him in as a clerk. The shop owner rejected him, and after some setbacks, Louis Vuitton finally found his first job in Paris as an ordinary clothes bundler. He cherishes this job very much, asks the masters for advice humbly, studies the practice assiduously, and strives to make every detail perfect. He has always believed that everything learned today will become the seeds of tomorrow, and everything you have learned cannot be viewed from an overly utilitarian perspective. They are neither high nor low, nor worthless. It is safe”, what you sow today will reap what kind of tomorrow.
A year later, Louis Vuitton again came to the luggage store where he had initially starved, and again asked the owner to take him in, but the owner again refused him. In the end, he used his intelligence and ingenuity to make the shopkeeper make an exception to take him as an apprentice.
Apprentice Louis Vuitton is diligent, humble and enthusiastic in the store. Because he has worked as a carpenter, the luggage he makes is stronger; because he has worked as a bundler, the luggage he makes is more scientific and reasonable in space design. Soon, Louis Vuitton became a young master with excellent craftsmanship, and the luggage he introduced has maintained a good and outstanding sales record. Finally, he opened a luggage store on the Champs-élysées, paving the way for the advent of the fashion brand LV (Louis Vuitton).
It can be seen that any success is inseparable from accumulation. Without accumulation, there will be no discovery and innovation, and there will be no creation. In today's increasingly competitive society, we can't just work hard, but also pay attention to scientific thinking.
My speech is over, thank you all!
亲爱的朋友们：
大家好!
不知道大家记不记得歌德曾经说过：在今天和明天之间，有一段很长的时间;“趁你还有精神的时候，学习迅速办事”。
好比奢侈品巨头路易·威登，他人生转折的精彩跌宕让后人赞叹不已。他出生于乡下一个木匠之家，14岁之前他接触最多的是飞溅的木屑。14岁时他的人生有了转折，他后来成了奢侈品巨头。
在路易·威登14岁时，村子里来了两位打扮时尚的年轻人，他们嘲笑村民们衣着老土，“这个鬼地方怎么月亮都显得那么肮脏”!这些话深深地刺伤了路易·威登，他决心要去巴黎，看看那里的人和月亮究竟有什么不同。一路颠沛游离，路易·威登终于来到巴黎，却发现这里的月亮并不比家乡的干净圆满，人们的装扮倒让他大开眼界。这个赤贫的孩子在巴黎无亲无故，生活异常艰难困苦。后来，他竟饿倒在一家高档皮箱店门口，好心肠的店主将其救起。他醒来后，抓住机会，请求店主收留他当一名店员。店主拒绝了他，经过一番坎坷挫折，路易·威登终于在巴黎找到了第一份工作，当了一名普通的捆衣工。他十分珍惜这份工作，虚心向师傅们请教，刻苦钻研实践，力争每一个细节都完美无缺。他始终相信：今天所学的一切都必将成为明天的种子，不能用过于功利的眼光来看待眼前所学的.一切，它们并没有高低贵贱之分，更不会毫无价值，“既来之则安之”，在今天种下什么，以后就会收获一个什么样的明天。
一年后，路易·威登再次来到最初饿倒的那家皮箱店，再次请求店主收留他，店主再次拒绝了他。最终他用自己的聪明与才智让店主破例收留了他做一名学徒。
学徒路易·威登在店里勤奋精进，谦卑热忱，因为做过木工，他做的皮箱更加结实;因为做过捆衣工，他做的皮箱在空间设计上更加科学合理。很快，路易·威登成为一位手艺超群的年轻师傅，他所推出的皮箱一直保持着良好突出的销量记录。最后，他在香榭丽舍大街开了一家皮箱店，为时尚品牌lv(路易威登)的问世开辟出了道路。
可见任何成功都离不开积累，没有积累就谈不上发现与创新，也就没有创造。在当下这个日益竞争激烈的社会，我们不能一味的努力，还要讲究科学的思考。
我的演讲结束，谢谢大家!

ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,i am chinese.
i am proud of being a chinese with five thousand years of civilization behind. i've learned about the four great inventions made by our forefathers. i've learned about the great wall and the yangtze river. i've learned about zhang heng(张衡)and i've learned about zheng he(郑和).who says the yellow river civilization has vanished(消失)?i know that my ancestors have made miracles(奇迹)on this fertile land and we're still ma-ki-ng miracles. who can ignore the fact that we have established ourselves as a great state in the world, that we have devised our own nuclear weapons, that we have successfully sent our satellites into space, and that our gnp ranks no. 7 in the world? we have experienced the plunders (掠夺) by other nations, and we have experienced the war. yet, based on such ruins, there still stands our nation----china, unyielding and unconquerable!
i once came acroan american tourist. she said, “china has a history of five thousand years, but the us only has a history of 200 years. five thousand years ago, china took the lead in the world, and now it is the us that is leading.”my heart was deeply touched by these words. it is true that we're still a developing nation, but it doesn't mean that we can despise (鄙视) ourselves. we have such a long-standing history, we have such abundant resources, we have such intelligent and diligent people, and we have enough to be proud of. we have reasons to say proudly：we are sure to take the lead in the world in the future again, for our problems are big, but our ambition (雄心) is even bigger, our challenges (挑战) are great, but our will is evengreater.
i am chinese. i have inherited (继承) black hair and blackeyes. i have inherited the virtues of my ancestors. i have also taken over responsibility. i am sure, that wherever i go, whatever i do, i shall never forget that i am chinese!
thank you.

friendship is indispensable to people's life. a man without friends is an angel
without wings, whose life will suffer in the long tolerance of loneliness and
depression. friendship is the mother of our psyche, who'll warm her kid when
hurt occurs. we have much to share with our friends in life, perplexity,
excitement, bitterness etc. alas, it's magnificent to maintain a genuine friendship.
友谊是不可缺少的人们的生活。没有朋友的人没有翅膀的天使,他的生活将会受到在长期的宽容的孤独和抑郁。友谊是我们的母亲心理,谁来温暖自己孩子什么时候伤害的`发生。我们有很多一起分享我们的朋友在生活中,困惑,兴奋,苦等。唉,它却是很伟大的维持一个真正的友谊。
i have many good friends, we study together and growth. in their lives gave
me more or less help, accompany me together through a wonderful time
我有很多好朋友,我们一起学习和成长。在他们的生活中或多或少给我帮助,陪我一起度过美好的时光
in short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure
it by means of words and deeds. only thus, can we develop real friendship and
keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life.
总之,当我们已经确立了友谊,我们应该珍惜和珍惜它通过自己的言行。只有这样,才能发展真正的友谊,让燃烧神圣的友谊之灯照亮我们一生。
