Confidence is power--the power to attract, persuade, influence, and succeed. Imagine what your life would be like if you had an abundance of selfconfidence !

Confidence isnt an inherited trait, it s a learned one. This means that you can have an abun-

dance of self-confidence. Start here, right now.

Confidence starts in the mind.What you think of yourself very much influences the way you feel about yourself. This, in turn, affects the way you speak and act.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

The very first thing you have to do to create abundant self-confidence is to start thinking with confidence. Pay attention to your internal dialogue, and learn to notice when you allow negativity or doubt to control the course of your thinking.

Your environment has a tremendous influence on you. The books you read, the people you spend time with, and the music you listen to all influence the way you think and feel about yourself and the world around you.

In a nutshell, your environment can either build up your self-confidence or drag it down.

If youre in a situation where youre discouraged, such as an unhealthy relationship or a miserable job,you have to change that situation if you want your self-confidence level to grow.

Create an environment that supports you if your desire to have abundant self-confidence. Spend time with confident people.

Remember those, self-confidence can be yours. Take it!

那是一个阳光明媚的早晨我吃过早餐后，随手翻开一本书。有一篇文章叫做《一只成功了的胖鳄鱼》，这篇文章的题目吸引了我，使我怀着探索的心情继续读。

一只巨大的胖鳄鱼被科学家放入了一个玻璃做的大水池中，中间放了一块隔板，在隔板的另一端科学家放入了三十多条小鱼。饿了一天的胖鳄鱼当然不会放过这个饱餐一顿的机会了！于是它用力的冲向这三十多条小鱼，遗憾的是，鳄鱼不知道中间有一块坚硬的隔板，所以被隔板狠狠的弹回来，并且把它的头撞破了。赔了夫人又折兵的鳄鱼没有一丝气馁，反而用力的扑向了鳄鱼对面的小鱼那儿，鳄鱼又失败了，他又没吃到鱼，又被重重地弹了回来。他终于不动了，科学家也准备结束实验，可就在这时，大鳄鱼又鼓起了勇气，又一次向小鱼冲去，与此同时科学家拿走了玻璃板，胖墩的鳄鱼终于把三十余条小鱼一口吞下，同时，它也感觉到了成功的美好。

读罢此文，我感慨万千。鳄鱼的成功告诉我一个道理：不要轻易放弃，认为自己是对的便努力去做，即使中途头破血流，也绝不轻易放弃自己，不可半途而废，要努力向前冲！如果我们在生活中遇到一个大困难，那我们无需气馁，反而要把这个大困难分解成一个个小困难，并认真解决小困难，最终解决了大困难，我一定要向这只胖墩墩的大鳄鱼学习，永不服输，永不放弃！它会一直鼓励我走下去的！

[优秀作文努力与成功

人们都说生命的意义在于坚持，坚持是人生的启明灯，只要你坚持不懈那么——万事皆可成。

拳王阿里就是用自己坚持不懈的精神装出一幅坚毅的表情和血战到底的精神气势，结果，把拳王猛将雷泽一举击败，就是因为阿里坚持到底的精神把雷泽吓倒了，他以为阿里还有足够的精力，所以主动选择弃权。这是，阿里终于倒下了，可是，雷泽却因为自己的没自信而以失败告终。

同学们，这更说明了现实生活中没有自信注定惨败，坚持就一定成功。我们

也要在生活中。学习中，做一个坚持不懈的小强人。

刘翔因2008年的奥运会脚受伤而没有出征奥运会，受到了许多记者和中国人的谴责，可是他没有像网坛奇才---辛格一样一蹶不振，而是在今年的二月份加紧训练，在五月份参加了国际田联钻石联赛，比赛那天，裁判一吹哨，只见刘翔就像离弦之剑一样往前跑去，比黑马“奥利弗”快了一个身位，在跑八步的步子中又缩减了一步，八减七，终于用13秒07在跨栏赛中遥遥领先，以0。11秒的领先速度超过了奥利弗，夺得了荣耀的冠军。设想，如果没有自信，刘翔也像辛格那样一蹶不起，能有他今天的成就吗?如果少了坚持，刘翔还可以夺得冠军吗!

所以，同学们要记住，坚持是一方良药，每个人都需要。坚持又是一场马拉松，它需要我们的毅力和信念。生活中不管遇到什么困难，只要坚持到底，不断努力，我相信胜利最终是属于我们的!

Everybody is afraid of failure, because it means what they do is useless and they waste their energy and time. But people get the wrong idea about failure, in fact, failure is also success. If people want to be successful, they need to take action. Failure at least means people have tried to do, what’s more, people can learn from their unsuccessful experience, so that they can improve their methods. Every failure means the closeness of success, we should take the positive attitude to failure, we can get over it soon and people finally can get the victory. So when we meet the difficulties, don’t be afraid of the bad result, just take action.

每个人都害怕失败，因为那意味着他们所做的是没有用的，浪费了时间和精力。但是人们对失败的看法是错误的，事实上，失败也是成功。如果人们想要成功，他们需要行动。失败至少意味着人们已经尝试去做，而且，人们能从他们不成功的经验中学习，这样他们才能改进方法。每个失败意味着与成功的靠近，我们应该乐观对待失败，快速克服失败，最后人们才能得到胜利。所以当我们遇到困难了，不要害怕不好的结果，要行动起来。

This morning, my father took me to school by bike. I sat at the back of the bike, eating a banana. After I ate it up, I threw the skin onto the street randomly.

今天早晨，爸爸骑车带我去上学。我坐在后车座上，吃着香蕉。吃完后，我顺手将香蕉皮扔到了街上。

No sooner had I done this than I realized that I had done something bad to our environment. And maybe someone would step on it and tumble over. I must pick it up. Thinking of these, I asked father to stop. I jumped off the bike and ran back to pick up the banana skin and threw it into a roadside dustbin. Seeing this, father praised me and I felt very happy.

我马上意识到我的所作所为破坏了我们的环境，或许有人会踩在上面而跌倒，我必须把它拾起来。想到这些，我让爸爸停车。我跳下自行车，跑回去拾起香蕉皮，并扔到了路边的垃圾箱里。看到这些，爸爸表扬了我。我感到很高兴。

I have to say that music really has a strong attractiveness to me. Naturally, everyone can choose suitable music to listen to. However, when you find a kind of music which can bring happiness to you, you will be surprised and become excited. Music has a magical energy, and it can help people gain good mood in a great extent.

Music can give you unlimited motivation to achieve goals，because you still want to listen to glorious music.

In addition, music includes a lot of useful knowledge. People can learn precious knowledge from music.

Music culture will givee you a deeper understanding to learn foreign culture, such as foreign language, foreign history and foreign traditional customs and so on. In a word, music has an important effect on promoting society development.

Music indeed has a magical power to help people and society develop. I believe that music will still continue to bring us many surprises. As the development of society, great music will become more important.

“蜂采百花酿甜蜜，人读群书明真理”。这句话是什么意思呢?这句话告诉我们蜜蜂只有采集许多的花酿出来的蜜才甜，人只有博览群书才能明白世间的真理。你看，花朵开的再鲜艳、再美丽它没有颜色它也不让人赏心悦目，人没有知识也只是社会上的废物。无论在现代还是在古代，凡是有功名和才能的人，无不用自己的汗水写着一个大字-------“勤”。

理想的学校,即一所好学校,总的评判标准是其在育人方面的贡献程度.而要有高质量的教育教学水平,我认为有以下方面.

首先,在器物层面上,我认为一所好学校不一定要有现代的高楼大厦,简朴、富有文化底蕴的建筑物或许更有利于教育教学.但是,良好的绿化环境和干净整洁的面貌必不可少.

其次,在制度层面,学校要有高效率的管理制度、教学制度.这些制度好比人体的骨架,起着贯穿和支撑全局的作用.

再次,在精神层面,学校要有先进的、明确的办学理念,这是学校一切教育教学活动的指导思想.

最后,教育是培养人的活动,由教师具体完成.一所学校必须有高水平的教师,所谓高水平包括：扎实的专业知识、过硬的教学能力、良好的道德素养等等.

拥有以上几点,即是我梦想的学校.

What Can We Do for the Environment

Hello,everyone. Im Li Hua. Its nice to speak about what we can do for the environment,and I think each of us can do a little bit to help with this problem.

The first thing we can do is to use cloth bags in stead of plastic bags when we go shopping. It helps to protect the environment. The second thing we can do is to reuse the old textbooks as possible as we can. We should also never forget to turn off the lights when we leave the classrooms in order to save energy. Whats more, it would be better if we walk or ride a bike to school. We should try our best reduce pollution and waste.

In fact,even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. I believe we can make the world a better place to live in.

Thank you for your listening!

我们能为环境做些什么

你好，每个人都。我是李华。很高兴谈论我们能为环境做些什么，我想我们每个人都可以做一点点来帮助解决这个问题。

我们能做的第一件事就是在用布袋代替塑料袋，当我们去购物。它有助于保护环境。我们能做的第二件事是尽可能重复使用旧课本可以。我们也应该永远不会忘记关灯，当我们离开教室时，为了节省能源。更重要的是，它会更好，如果我们步行或骑自行车上学。我们应该尽最大努力减少污染和浪费。

事实上，即使是最简单的日常活动也能对环境产生很大的差异。我相信我们可以让世界变得更美好的生活。

谢谢你的倾听!

今天，我和我的闺蜜去逛街。我们上午11点就骑小黄车长发了。因为我们都没有吃早餐，所以我们一到那就各自吃了一个奶酪冰淇淋。然后我们就去地下商场。在商场里，我买了一条蓝色长牛仔裤，我的闺蜜买了一条短牛仔裤。我们逛了3个小时的街之后，又饿又累，所以我们就买了正新鸡排并且坐公交车回去。因为我们实在太饿了，于是就在公交车上吃了鸡排。我回家之后，就试穿了我的新牛仔裤，我妈妈说那看起来太成熟了，管他呢，我开心就好。

锲而不舍金石可镂

荀子曾言道：“锲而舍之，朽木不折；锲而不舍，金石可镂”。是的，古往今来，没有一份成功不是靠坚持得来的。

在苦难中坚持，流传千古。“吴越争霸”的故事，想必大家都不会陌生吧。吴王夫差打越王勾践，轻易进兵会稽，勾践无奈请降，并暗地里发誓报仇。

十年间，他身为奴仆，受尽屈辱，但他意志坚韧，卧薪尝胆，不忘耻辱，渐渐地使夫差放松了警惕；又经十年励精图治，他终于领兵一举灭了吴国，成为春秋一霸，永载史册。他成功了，只因他在苦难中，凭着顽强的毅力坚持了下来。

在失败中坚持，做人生赢家。阿里巴巴集团的创始人——马云，他对梦想从不轻易放弃。他曾想考重点小学，没考上，失败了；后来他又想考重点中学，又没考上，也失败了；考大学的时候，更是考了三年才考上；想念哈佛大学也没有最后成功…

但是，他没有因此而放弃，相反地，他坚持不懈，勇往直前，最终通过了自己的努力，创办了阿里巴巴集团，他成功了！是的，成功永远是留给那些坚持不懈努力的人们的。一个能在失败中坚持，未曾倒下，未曾服输的人，又怎能会不赢得人生！

古语有云“行百里者半九十”

时刻坚持是意志力顽强的完美体现。有一次，苏格拉底布置了一道作业，让他的弟子们每天甩手一百下。一周后，他问弟子们作业完成情况，百分之九十都坚持下来了；一个月后，他又问，只有一半弟子坚持了下来；一年后，他再问，只有一个弟子坚持了下来，而他就是后来被誉为“希腊三贤之一的柏拉图。

所以，古语有云“行百里者半九十”，一切的成功都与坚持密不可分；成功是坚持的必然结果；而坚持则是成功的必备条件之一。

砥砺前行，不耻最后

鲁迅先生曾说：“不耻最后，即使慢，驰而不息；纵使落后，纵使失败，但定可以达到他们所向往的目标”。一个人只要坚持到最后，又怎能不会成功？

They survive in some of the coldest environments in the world - but even penguins appreciate a warm woolly jumper once in a while.

The mini knitted garments have helped save hundreds of flightless birds caught in oil spills providing protection from the elements and stopping them from ingesting poisonous pollution.

Knits for Nature a program run by The Penguin Foundation which conserves the little penguin population of Phillip Island 140km south-east of Melbourne has created up to 300 different designs over the years - and its all thanks to talented volunteers.

‘There’s a lot of hidden creativity out there said Lyn Blom of the Phillip Island Nature Park.

People love to know that they’re helping the penguins because they’re so cute and small and they waddle up the beach and they’re so feisty. But they need to be they live in a pretty tough sort of environment.’

A thumbnail-sized patch of oil can kill little penguins the smallest of the species measuring just 13 inches (33cm) and weighing 2.2lbs (1kg). The oil separates and mats their feathers breaking natural waterproofing and heating functions.

Ms Blom estimates she has knitted between 200 and 300 penguin jumpers over the years including ones in the colours of every Australian Rules football team in the country.

A staff member read an article in an English women’s magazine about knitting for guillemot birds and decided to adapt the designs.

‘There’s an awful lot of ladies out there who used to knit for their children and grandchildren. These ladies have spare wool and idle hands and they love to feel loved and needed and we love and need them’ said Ms Blom.

The Penguin Foundation recently staged a competition for the most creative jumper which received an enthusiastic response.

The Penguin Foundation rescues approximately 20 birds a year. They even have a stockpile of jumpers in case of emergency - such as the large oil spill near Phillip Island in 2001.

In that instance 453 Little Penguins were affected 96 percent of which were saved - most thanks to the jumpers.

企鹅在世界上最寒冷的环境下生存，但有时候它们也渴望有一件温暖的毛衣。

由于石油泄露，企鹅们很可能接触到石油中的微量元素，甚至误食这些有毒的污染物。而迷你毛衣能给它们很好的保护，成功拯救了数百只企鹅。

为了保护菲利普岛(墨尔本东南部140千米处)上的小企鹅，企鹅基金会发起了为企鹅织毛衣的活动。到目前为止，基金会已经设计了300多种不同的毛衣款式，这都要感谢心灵手巧的志愿者们。

菲利普岛上自然公园的工作人员布洛姆说：“我们发现了很多隐藏的创意。”

“人们愿意帮助企鹅，因为它们又小又可爱，活跃极了。在沙滩上摇摆着身体走动时，它们又显得那么坚强。 这又是必然的，毕竟它们生活在这么恶劣的条件下。”

一滩指甲盖大小的石油就足以杀死一只小企鹅。最小的企鹅大概只有13英寸(33厘米)长，体重2.2磅(1千克)。石油会使得它们的羽毛缠结在一起且分散开，这样羽毛就失去了防水和保温的作用。

布洛姆自己就织了大约两到三百件毛衣，她还制作了一个毛衣系列，采用的是澳大利亚所有足球队的代表颜色。

之所以采用毛衣，是因为基金会的一名员工在一本女性杂志上看到了一篇给海鸟织毛衣的文章，随后就决定模仿这一设计。

布洛姆说：“许多女性朋友为自己的孩子织毛衣，她们乐意帮助我们，也会提供多余的毛线和手工，她们喜欢这种被爱被需要的感觉。基金会也非常感谢和需要她们。”

最近，企鹅基金会举办了一场“最具创意毛衣”大赛，获得了不错的反响。

每年，企鹅基金会拯救的企鹅大约在20只。他们甚至还有毛衣储备以应对紧急情况，比如2001年菲利普岛附近的大规模石油泄露事件。

那次事件中，453只企鹅受到了影响，当中96%的企鹅获救——最大的功臣就是毛衣了。

成功的意义不在于你取得多大的成就，也不在于你有多么的伟大。因为，成功总会与努力过的人握手，只要享受了努力的过程，我们就不是失败者。

有一首耳熟能详的名歌——《蜗牛与黄鹂鸟》正是围绕着一种坚持不懈的精神而创作的。歌中的蜗牛虽然并未成功，但它毕竟努力过了，和黄鹂鸟相比，它的历程要艰难许多，重重的壳裹着蜗牛的仰望，可蜗牛并没有轻言放弃，而是一步一步的往上爬，即使失败了，也得到了大家的尊敬。

努力过，就不是失败者！努力过，失败也是美丽的！在现实生活中，有些同学一经失败就放弃了对人生理想的追求。可是，失败了又有什么关系呢？只要我们能振作起来，不放弃对人生理想的追求，做一只勤奋的蜗牛坚定向前，持之以恒，我们就是命运的主宰者，我们就是驶向彼岸的船只。我想，如果说失败是成功之母，那么，坚持就一定是成功之父。

有一个这样的故事发人深省：有一个孩子，他是当地出了名的“低智力儿”。三岁时还不会说话，六岁时被老师叫到名字时竟然呆若木鸡，同学们讥笑他，连老师也不喜欢他。有一次的手工课，小男孩很想做一个精美的小板凳，但直到下课他还没有做完，还急得满头大汗。第二天早上，他才交给老师一个很难看的小板凳，老师生气地说：“世界上不会再有比这更差的凳子了。”小男孩拿出了两个更粗糙的小板凳，说：“有，还有比这个更差的。”原来，这是他第三次制作的，第一次，每二次制作的更难看。这个小男孩就是举世闻名的科学巨人——爱因斯坦，他正是凭着不懈的追求，才获得伟大成就的。

其实，世界上并没有什么天才，但我们可以做一只脚踏实地的蜗牛，一步一个脚印地向着心中的目标前进，只要坚持不懈，持之以恒，我们都能登上人生的珠峰。

同学们！让我们以坚持不懈的精神，唤起心中学习的激情，乘着知识的列车，迈着坚定的步伐就一定能到达成功的彼岸。
