This road is elusive, how many people have encountered setbacks and give up the road, so that they can not continue, this road is called - Logistics and.

"There is no royal road to There is no end for learning. suffering for the boat from Chinas Tang Dynasty famous poet and philosopher Han Yus famous Association, the young Su Dongpo thought has no do not read the book, the book is a couplet:" know the word all over the world, make the world read the book". After a man pointing to: "strenuously know the word all over the world, determined to make the world read the book". The "Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Zuan Ji Xiaolan wrote an antithetical couplet:" the ups and downs of officialdom for Hagdon; death books like bookworm". Lian described himself as "bookworm", a love of reading it. These popular ages dont know how much the antithetical couplet inspired the children very hard. One thing in our life is the most meaningful reading, only strenuously reading is likely to change their own destiny, reading is not forced, but from the bottom of my heart to feel his beauty, this is the highest realm!

A few years ago, I just think I lived a life that day light of heart from care, very beautiful, have ample food and clothing. But the parents are not eternal, they may not have been with us, we can not always rely on parents, we must also be self-reliance, strenuously hard, with their own efforts to grasp their own destiny.

篇2:金融危机电影《商海通牒》观后感

全文共 1451 字

+ 加入清单

艾瑞克—华尔街一家大型投行的风险部门主管,被上司公报私仇,在一轮大规模的裁员中,首当其冲被裁撤掉了。

但是艾瑞克正在进行的一项风险研究尚未完成。作为主管风控的主要负责人,艾瑞克发现在日常风险监控中,该投行基于通用模型定价的资产,已经处于巨大的风险之中。投行之间的竞争是残酷的,所以被裁撤掉的员工要被立刻监视离开,连用于通讯的手机也要被立即中断。艾瑞克的心中充满愤怒,但是出于职业操守,他把未完成的工作交给了自己的徒弟——风险管理员苏利文。正是这一行为挽救了整个公司。

苏利文仔细研究老师的成果,填补了漏洞,发现,原来的模型错了,风险预警机制已经失效,公司面临巨大风险。得到这一消息,公司高层连夜召开紧急会议,决定次日开盘将公司经营的抵押证券MBS全部清仓,最大限度的收回资金,挽回损失。

第一张多米诺骨牌就这样被推倒了。

面对从天而降的馅饼,许多华尔街的投行精英竟丝毫没有怀疑,每个人都怀着捡了大便宜的喜悦心情,积极的投入到‘接盘侠’的行列之中。而这场金融海啸中,唯一的获利者就是最先嗅到了危机的这家投行。

关于这部电影,网上有许多精彩的影评。专业影评人的文学功底非同一般,一部电影被他们描述的跌宕起伏,精彩生动,但是我想在这里讨论的是这些评价中带有的、针对金融从业者的一些偏见和误解,以及我写这篇文章的初衷—为金融从业者正名。

‘毕竟金融危机发源于这个万恶的投行,最终苦果却要世人均摊。’

‘资本操纵者贪婪的本性、阴险的计谋、凶残的手段、冷漠的绝情’

‘公司的高层对这些即将到来的金融界的危险既无所畏惧,也不知羞耻’

看看网上的评价,这样的言论不绝于耳,盲从者也乐意看到有人为种种社会怪象找出了一个替罪羊,让他们在生活高压中层层积累下的压力和情绪有了一个肆意宣泄、喊打喊杀的地方。但是如果你肯学习一些金融知识,并愿意用自己的头脑去思考,你就会发现,事实果真如此吗?

金融危机发源于万恶的投行吗?

“我不是经济学家,对于金融危机这个词我没有办法做出专业的解释。但是有一点我们可以大体明确,金融危机爆发的过程是一个痛苦的‘挤泡沫’的过程。可是泡沫是哪里来的?金融危机爆发的前提一定是市场先积累了大量的泡沫,然后才有了后面的‘挤泡沫’。以上证指数为例,如果大盘涨到5000、6000、10000肯定是有泡沫,但是大盘跌到2000、1800、1600的时候谁能站出来说市场有泡沫?只有当市场价格严重高于实际价值中枢的时候,市场才会有严重的泡沫,才会有后面惨烈的‘挤泡沫’的过程。

谁先戳破了泡沫?大家都有过吹泡泡的经历,泡泡吹的越大,其破裂的可能性就越大,等泡泡吹大到它的极限,它自己就会破裂。市场的泡沫也是同理。不论市场怎么上涨,总之它不会涨到天上去;市场涨到它的极限,不用太大的力就可以被打下来。戳破他的人可以是‘万恶的投行’、‘万恶的地产商’、也可以是‘万恶的收藏家’,或者是‘万恶’的其他什么人,总之总会有先知先觉的1%们发现市场存在泡沫,他们认为市场泡沫膨胀一定会有个极限,之后就会有一个价格回归价值的过程。

对,就是这些‘万恶’的1%们在市场泡沫即将破裂或者是刚刚破裂的时刻,果断的离开了这个市场。不是因为他们做空了市场,市场就下跌了,是因为市场中已经累积了大量的获利盘,多头已经疲态尽显成为强弩之末,这个时候做空的利润空间巨大,你不做空,别人也会做空。2015年证券市场暴跌,许多人归咎于股指期货的做空才产生市场的暴跌,那么,2008年倒是没有股指期货,股市从6000一路狂泻到1600,那次暴跌的黑锅又该由谁来背呢?”

On College Students Occupying Seats

In English, there is an expression “First Come, First Served” (FCFS). This stresses the need for orderliness, which also applies to college students searching for seats in the reading rooms of a library. However, in China, things are somehow complicated. Instead of occupying seats with their own persons, students tend to use books, backpacks or other personal objects to stand for their “legitimate” ownership of the seats.

To such extent, the emergence of such a practice, now almost ubiquitous on all campuses, is justified. The seats for students to conduct self-study are limited and university authorities should endeavor to increase such facilities to satisfy students needs. At least, students efforts to fight for seats indicate they are enthusiastic about their studies—their academic initiatives should be duly recognized and encouraged! However, using personal belongings to occupy seats may exacerbate the scarcity of facilities—some irresponsible students might never turn up, sometimes even for days. They waste the precious resources and damage the interests of other students who have real needs. Such behavior deserves unconditional criticism and condemnation.

Both university authorities and students should do their best to solve the problem. The authorities should create more reading rooms to satisfy students needs whereas students should not waste the already limited resources. In this way, an optimum allocation of resources can be realized and all students would enjoy their studies.

参考译文

英语里有个说法,叫做“先到者先得”。它强调的是,人们必须遵守秩序。这一点也适用于大学生们在学校图书馆的阅览室里寻找座位的行为。然而,在中国,事情似乎稍显复杂。学生们不是亲身去占有座位,而往往是用书本、书包或其他个人物件来代表他们对于某个座位的“合法”占有权。

在某种程度上,这种在每个校园里几乎无所不在的做法有其合理之处。学生们用于进行自习的座位数量有限,学校当局应尽力去增加此类设施,以满足学生们的需求。不管怎么说,学生们努力去争夺座位,表明他们热衷于他们的学习——他们的学习主动性应得到应有的认可和鼓励。然而,用个人物品去占座,却很有可能使设施的匮乏更趋严重——有些不责任的学生可能一整天甚至数天都不会现身!他们浪费了宝贵的资源,损害了其他真正有需求的学生的利益。这种行为理应受到无条件的批评,乃至谴责。

无论是校方还是学生们自己,都应尽力去解决这一难题。校方应开辟更多的阅览室来满足学生们的需求,而学生们也不应去浪费早已捉襟见肘的资源。如此一来,一种最佳的资源配置就能得以实现,而所有的学生终将尽享他们的学习。

Social Networking’s Influence on College Students

Social networking has gained huge worldwide popularity in recent years, especially among college students. In China, college student is the main force of social networking, 97.7% of which are fond of instant messaging and 80.7% prefer social networking sites like micro-blog and Q-zone (China Internet Network Information Center, 2013). Moreover, Michigan State University Original Study also finds that compared with Chinese students, American students are more tied to social media (2013). Therefore, nowadays there is a heated debate about advantages and disadvantages about social networking’s influence on college students.

Obviously, there are a number of positive features on social networking. It provides a convenient access to consolidate the relationship with people they know, make friends with strangers without restrictions of space and share happiness and sorrow. What’s more, social networking also has educational functions including reducing college drop-out rates, motivating students to work as a team, sending information about assignments, reminding students about deadline and stimulating students to help each other. (BBC News, 2009). There is no doubt that social networking plays a significant role in eiching students’ college lives.

However, every coin has two sides. There are also many disadvantages on the influence of social networking, among which, “soft addiction” is the most serious problem, distracting students from study. Because of lack of self-restriction, many students would waste plenty of time to search the social networking sites unconsciously, followed by a strong tendency to blame themselves (Li, 2013). This kind of “soft addiction” and distraction was also confirmed by Zhang (2011) who conducted a survey by questionare of 500 Chinese college students from different schools and found that 33% students could not bear one-week life without social networking and 77% students could not help themselves accessing social networking site during classes. Furthermore, a social experiment was performed by Harrisburg University (Pilkington, 2010) to figure out the effect after initiating blackout of all social networking sites. It turned out that some students became more concentrated on

the tutor and making notes instead of having instant messaging running in classes.

As far as I’m concerned, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages, especially in China, where social networking is used for communication and entertainment and seldom plays the educational role (Li, 2011). The priority of a college student is to study hard instead of being addicted to social networking. Therefore, it is imperative for them to realize their “soft addiction” to social networking and correct their behavior.

Some people may believe that going to classes should be optional, but I disagree. I dont understand how university students can expect to learn anything if they dont attend classes. Personal experience can help people learn about themselves and the world outside the classroom, but when it comes to learning about academic subjects, students need to be in class.

有些人可能认为,上课应该是选择性的,但我不同意。我不明白如果大学生不去上课,他们如何能够学到东西。个人的经验可以帮助人们了解自己和课堂以外的世界,但就学习学术课程来说,学生是需要去上课的。

In class they receive the benefit of the teachers knowledge. The best teachers do more than just go over the material in the class textbook. They draw their students into discussion of the material. They present opposing points of view. They schedule guest speakers to come, give the students additional information, or show documentary films on the subject.

在课堂上他们接受教师传授的知识的好处。好的老师不仅仅是照搬教科书上的材料。他们把他们的学生带入材料的探讨中。他们提出了相反的观点。他们安排嘉宾的到来,给学生带来更多的信息,或展示那个主题的纪录片。

Also, attending classes on any subject teaches more than just facts. It teaches students how to learn, how to absorb information and then apply what theyve learned to other situations. Their teacher is the best one to help them with these skills. They cant learn them just by reading the textbook.

同时,任何学科的课程所教的不仅仅只是事实。会教学生如何去学习,如何吸收信息,然后在其他情况下运用他们所学到的知识。老师是最好的人选来帮助他们掌握这些技能。那是他们不能仅仅通过阅读课本而学习到的。

Going to class also teaches students how to work with the other members of the class. Many times students will be given group assignments. This is different from what they did in secondary school. Here theyre with people from different backgrounds and experiences. In this situation, they learn how to handle working with people different from themselves to achieve a common goal.

去上课也教导学生如何与班上的其他人共处。很多时候学生要做小组作业。这与他们在中学中是不同的。在这里,他们有着不同的背景和经历。在这种情况下,他们学会了如何处理与自己不一样却有着共同的目标的人。

Going to class also teaches students responsibility and discipline. Having to be at a particular place at a particular time prepares themselves for getting a job. Being at a place on time with an assignment completed prepares them for a career.

去上课也教学生责任和纪律。必须在特定的时间、地点自己做好找工作的准备。在规定的地方按时完成任务是为找工作而做准备。

In short, by going to class, students learn more than just information from the teacher. They also learn how to learn, how to work with others, and how to work responsibly. These are not optional skills in life, so attending classes should not be optional in college.

总之,去上课的学生不仅仅是从教师身上学到知识。他们也学到如何学习,如何与他人合作,如何负责任地工作。这些都是生活必备的技能,所以不应该在大学上课是可选的。

Some people like to work alone while others enjoy teamwork. In my opinion, everyone had better learn to work with others together because teamwork is definitely necessary and important in modern society.

有些人喜欢单独工作,而有些人则喜欢团队合作。在我看来,每个人最好学习与他人一起工作,因为团队合作在现代社会是很有必要和重要的。

First, working in a team provides a chance for us to communicate with each other. Just as the saying goes, “many hands make light job.” Working in a team, teammates share their ideas with each other, which is helpful to create a better achievement. Second, working in a team is a way to broaden our horizon. Teammates in a team can learn something from each other because they are from different places, owning various experiences and hold different views towards things. Therefore, getting along with other teammates is also a process of increasing our knowledge. Finally, working in a team is also a way to establish our friendship. Teammates in a team have chances to help each other, to solve the problems together, to share the happiness of being successful, which make a great contribution to establishing friendship. Thus, working in a team is one of the most effective ways to extend our personal relationships.

首先,在一个团队中工作为我们提供了一个彼此沟通的机会。正如俗话所说,“众人拾柴火焰高。”在一个团队中工作,队友们互相分享他们的想法,这有助于创造更好的成绩。第二,在团队中工作是拓宽我们视野的一个好方式。一个团队的队友可以相互学习因为他们来自不同地方,拥有不同的经验并且对事物有不同的看法。因此,和其他队友相处融洽也是增长见识的过程。最后,团体合作有助于建立友谊。在一个团队的队友们有机会互相帮助,共同解决问题,分享成功的快乐,这些都为建立友谊做出很大的贡献。因此,在团队工作是最有效的扩展个人关系的方法之一。

To sum up, to learn to work in a team is really necessary and important and we should try to enjoy it.

总之,学习团队合作是真的很有必要和重要。我们应该尽量享受这一点。

I was born in a small village of Shan Dong Province on April 4th, 1968. When I was young, my family was very poor, so I had to work to earn money to help my parents after class when I was in the middle school.

In 1986 I was admitted by University of International Business and Economics (or: UIBE) to pursue a bachelor degree in Economics. My major is accounting in Department of International Business Management. The undergraduate education gave me a wide range of vision and taught me how to cooperate with others. I developed several professional interests in Accounting, Finance, and International Trade.

The following eight-year working experience offered me a good chance to give full play to my creativity, intelligence and diligence. In 1990-1993, I worked as an assistant to funding manager in China National Technical Import and Export Corporation. In 1993-present, I was employed by China Kingdom Import and Export Corporation to be the Manger of Financial and Accounting Division.

I do believe that with my hard early life, solid educational background and ample working experience, I would be an excellent student of you MBA program.

MY PERSONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT: After graduating from UIBE, I was employed as the assistant to the funding manager by China National Technical Import and Export Corporation. After reading a lot of related files, and analyzing the overall funding situation of the corporation, I found that the loan policy was not been put into effect. So we have thousands of millions RMB loan with very high interest rate while a large amount of cash in bank with very low interest rate was idle. I reported this to my supervisor, and then we studied and revised the loan policy. This revision saved the corporation approximately RMB thirty millions yuan. In order to raise the funding effectiveness, after one year’s hard work, I developed the internal banking system within the corporation based on the actual funding supply and need of the different divisions and projects. This internal banking system made full use of the corporation’ funding resources, and due to this, I was highly praised by the president of the corporation.

WHY CHOOSE YOUR MBA PROGRAM? After I have worked in business area for eight years, I feel that I need to continue my education by pursuing a Master degree in business administration. I have practiced my professional expertise in accounting, demonstrated my leadership abilities and perfected my communication skills. But I have yet to become an entrepreneur in my own right, and to fully master the art of modern business. I want to be trained more vigorously in scientific methods of analysis and synthesis. There are a lot of opportunities and challenges in China that I do not yet fell fully confident to seize. My business career has so far benefited mostly the companies that I worked for, but a good business education in your university will probably become a new era for me.

Your university is well known for its excellence in China’s business education. I am sure that, with my extensive business experience, I can be a worthy student of yours. I am anxious to benefit from your seasoned guidance and take advantage of your research facilities.

篇13:写濒临危机动物的英语作文北极熊

全文共 3755 字

When the Arctic Ocean freezes over in the autumn, polar bears set off in search of their favorite meals: fatty ringed seals and bearded seals. By the summer, the sea ice begins to melt and break apart. Deprived of access to the tasty seals, polar bears spend the summer fasting. At least, thats whats supposed to happen. As the planet warms, the warmer ice-free season is getting longer and longer. So whats a hungry bear to do?

Scientists once thought that polar bears might survive by supplementing their pinniped diet by turning to terrestrial foods like snow geese, their eggs and caribou.

"Weve had this debate in the literature about whether terrestrial foods are nutritionally relevant to polar bears during the on-land season when the ice has melted."

University of Alberta biologist Nick Pilfold.

"And weve known for a long time, going back to research in the early 70s, even going to back to early explorer logs, that polar bears will consume terrestrial based foods. But the debate was always whether those foods actually add up, energetically." In other words, do these substitutes provide enough nutrition to make up for the lost seals?

To find out, Pilfold and his colleagues estimated the weight lost each day by polar bears in the wilds of western Hudson Bay during the ice-free season, when they could ostensibly be chowing down on terrestrial foods. Then they compared that to the weight lost by bears that are temporarily held in Manitobas Polar Bear Alert Program.

While captive, the bears do not eat. They drop about one kilogram each day. But the wild bears, who had access to the Arctic snack bar, lost the same amount of weight each day. The results are in the journal Physiological and Biochemical Zoology.

"Which is really saying that the terrestrial foods do not have dense enough energy to offset the mass loss. So this idea that bears can just switch from eating sea ice–based food to land food and thats going to help supplement against longer ice-free seasons, that really doesnt show up in the data."

The problem is that polar bears evolved to rely on the marine diet.

"The food on land is protein and carbohydrate based, and the food the polar bears really focus on is fat. Fat is the name of the game for these bears; theyre highly adapted to absorbing that fat into their system and putting it onto their body as body mass, so they can fast on it later on. And the only thing thats going to provide them with that type of fat are marine mammals. And they can only access those marine mammals when theres sea ice."

Adult males can go eight months without food. But younger, sub-adult bears, which are no longer nursing and must hunt, cant last as long without sea ice. So as the Arctic warms, younger polar bears will disproportionately die out. Leaving the species survival in doubt.

北冰洋在秋季结冰以后,北极熊就会出发去寻求它们最喜欢的食物:富含脂肪的海豹和胡子海豹。海冰在夏季开始融化断裂。这使北极熊在夏季无法吃到美味的海豹,所以它们进入禁食期。至少,情况应该是这样。但是由于地球变暖,温暖的无冰季节越来越长。那饥饿的北极熊要怎么办?

科学家曾经认为,北极熊可能会转向陆地上的食物来补充它们对鳍足类动物饮食的需求,进而生存下去,这些陆地食物包括雪雁、雪雁蛋和北美驯鹿。

“文献中有过这类辩论,即在寒冷融化时陆地食物是否能满足北极熊的营养需求。”

尼克·皮尔福德是加拿大阿尔伯塔大学的生物学家。

“通过上世纪70年代初的研究,还有早期的探险者日志,我们很早以前就知道,北极熊会以陆地食物为食。但是辩论的焦点在于,这些食物是否能增加北极熊的能量。”换句话说,这些替代食物能否为北极熊提供足够的营养,弥补不能进食海豹带来的损失?

为了解开这个疑惑,皮尔福德及同事对西哈德逊湾荒野地区的北极熊在无冰季期间每天失掉的体重进行了估算,从表面上看,北极熊在这段时间食用了陆地食物。随后,他们将这一数据与通过马尼托巴北极熊预警计划暂时捕得的北极熊所失掉的体重进行了对比。

在被关期间,北极熊不吃东西。它们的体重每天大约下降1公斤。虽然野生北极熊能享用北极“小吃”,但是它们的体重每天也同样会下降1公斤。这一研究结果发表在《生理学和生化动物学》期刊上。

“显然结果表明,陆地食物不能为北极熊提供足以抵消大量损失的能量。所以,北极熊可以从食用海冰下面的食物转向食用陆地食物,并帮助它们对抗日益延长的无冰季这个观点,并没有在这项数据中得到证明。”

问题是,北极熊进化成了依靠海洋食物的动物。

“陆地食物以蛋白质和碳水化合物为基础,而北极熊需要的食物以脂肪为主。脂肪是这些熊真正需要的东西;它们高度适应的情况是,将脂肪吸收进它们的系统中,然后把这些脂肪放在身上以增加体重,这样它们之后就可以依靠这些脂肪来度过禁食期。唯一能提供给北极熊这种脂肪的就是海洋哺乳动物。但是它们只能在有海冰时食用到这些海洋哺乳动物。”

成年北极熊可以8个月不进食。但是小一些的未成年北极熊已经不再被哺育,它们必须要去猎食,可是它们不能在漫长的无冰季期间一直不进食。所以,随着北极地区变暖,较小的北极熊将会大批死亡。这使这些物种的生存成为问题。

Nowadays, the problem of college students employment becoming more and

more serious. About a decade ago, university students could find satisfactory

and enviable jobs after graduation, while at current situation, about 30% of

graduate students can’t find a job but stay at home after graduation.

Employment difficulty of college students is due to the following reasons.

Among these, the increasing recruitment of colleges and universities plays a

vital role. In addition, many colleges and universities fail to adapt their

courses to the development of economy.

Considering such a rough job market, I think it is high time that we took

effective measures to solve the problem. Above all, college students should

realize their own defects and further improve themselves to keep their

competitive edge in society.

Moreover, colleges or universities should provide more trainings and

internship opportunities before the students enter the society. Besides, college

students should hold a right attitude towards jobs and set their job

expectations at a suitable level.

Only through these ways can the college students find a satisfactory job

and have a brighter future.

篇16:美国金融危机

全文共 1173 字

2008年10月1日是新中国的第五十九个生日,今年在经历大悲大喜后,更倍觉节日值得庆贺。京奥“神七”开盛世,地裂冰封振国魂:京奥圆百年梦,“神七”掀航天新页,均显示中国国力晋升新阶,在现代化上初见成绩;连串的雪灾震灾,不单未打倒中国人民,反而唤起万众团结奋战的爱国心,向世界宣示国家及人民的新形象。总之,无论是悲是喜,均令中国的硬实力、软实力得到提升,反映了持续发展的成效。

从较长远的历史角度看,今年还有重大的纪念意义─改革开放的三十周年。三十年来中国变化之大发展之快,实人类史上奇迹,故已令举世惊异。关键在于通过改革开放,中国经济的市场化及全球化框架已具雏型,并开始发挥效益。由此从计划到市场、落后到先进的双转换,道路愈走愈宽。即使初步成绩,却已令人瞩目:中国GDP以购买力平价计已仅次美国,出口额亦晋居世界次席。

回头看走过的路很长,向前看要走的路更长,成绩不少但不足更多,中国要建立成熟的现代化市场经济仍是任重道远。改革尚未到位的具体例子很多,在九成多物品价格由市场订出外,尚余少数项目(如能源)因定价失当,仍常困扰相关产业及总体经济的发展。宏观调控则仍须学会更好地解读形势,和用好市场调节手段。国有企业的政企分家仍未彻底,各级政府对市场的干预癖仍未清除,每过分热衷于“救市”。生产事故频发及最近的毒奶粉事件,又显示市场运行的法治基础,及政府管治、企业管理水平距离先进尚远。当然,这些都是发展中的问题,只有通过深化改革来逐步解决。无论如何,中国已闯出了具本国特色的发展之路,“中国模式”在国际上尤其第三世界中享有盛誉。

同时必须注意,中国的改革开放,又正面临新一轮巨大的挑战与机遇。美国的世纪金融危机愈演愈烈,散向全球的冲击波浪比浪高。在应付直接冲击上中国能力颇高:金融业有外汇管制及市场分隔的内外“防火墙”,而庞大的内需及内生发展动力,足可抗御外需放缓的影响。因此危机纵会带来困扰问题却不大,中国将成为环球风暴中少见的乐土、安全岛。

真正的挑战与机遇来自国际金融格局的大变:金融危机的后果正如最近德国财长所说,将是美国金融霸权的没落,和美元作为国际货币的独大地位的消减。欧美的全球金融经济核心角色将随之淡化,新兴经济加快冒起,尤其东亚的金融经济地位必日益重要。英美的自由放任金融模式已发展到终点,今后将要进行大改革,其金融领先优势自必大减。显然,这将给中国崛起带来了世纪机遇,必须好好把握。

然而这正是中国的最大挑战。中国的金融体系仍较脆弱,仍在走向世界的初阶,在“走出去”投资中(如入股黑石及富通等)已损失不菲。因此,如何算准到欧美捞底的时机,通过参与国际“救市”行动维护本国权益,和开拓符合国情并具中国特色的金融发展之路等,都将成为急须探索的新课题。总之,中国必须在改革开放及金融发展上,作更多的自主创新,只有这样才可真正成为经济及金融强国。

Russian Scientists Surrounded by Polar Bears

俄罗斯科学家被北极熊包围

Relief supplies finally arrived on a remote Arctic island where a group of scientists had been trapped in a weather station. Up to a dozen polar bears had surrounded the station on the island of Troynoy and set up camp approximately two weeks ago. The bears were becoming more aggressive over time, killing one of the stations dogs and breaking a window. On Wednesday, a helicopter that picked up supplies from a nearby vessel arrived with dogs and flares and was able to scare away the bears and allow the researchers to get back to work.

救灾物资终于抵达了偏远的北极岛屿,有一批科学家被困在那里的气象站中。大约两周以前,十几只北极熊将特洛伊诺伊岛(Troynoy Island)上的一个气象站团团包围,并在那里安营扎寨。随着时间的流逝,北极熊变得越来越有攻击性,咬死了气象站的狗,还打破了窗户。周三,一架从附近船只上携带犬和照明弹物资的直升机到达岛屿,能够将北极熊吓走,让科学家正常工作。

导语:基本的演讲技巧即兴发言,如何张口就来?化解舞台恐惧,好的方法是?下面是yuwenmi小编为还在备考的同学整理的优秀演讲稿,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

If I Rest, I Rust

The significant inscription found on an old key - "If I rest, I rust." - would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with slightest bit of idleness. Even the most industrious person might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.

在一把旧钥匙上发现了一则意义深远的铭文——如果我休息,我就会生锈。对于那些懒散而烦恼的人来说,这将是至理名言。甚至最为勤勉的人也以此作为警示:如果一个人有才能而不用,就像废弃钥匙上的铁一样,这些才能就会很快生锈,并最终无法完成安排给自己的工作。

Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gates that guard entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture-every department of human endeavor.

有些人想取得伟人所获得并保持的成就,他们就必须不断运用自身才能,以便开启知识的大门,即那些通往人类努力探求的各个领域的大门,这些领域包括各种职业:科学,艺术,文学,农业等。

Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in quarry had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his " moments to idleness. Had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, had allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside, instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never become a famous,astronomer.

勤奋使开启成功宝库的钥匙保持光亮。如果休·米勒在采石场劳作一天后,晚上的时光用来休息消遣的话,他就不会成为名垂青史的地质学家。著名数学家爱德蒙·斯通如果闲暇时无所事事,就不会出版数学词典,也不会发现开启数学之门的钥匙。如果苏格兰青年弗格森在山坡上放羊时,让他,那思维活跃的大脑处于休息状态,而不是借助一串珠子计算星星的位置,他就不会成为著名的天文学家。

Labor vanquish all-not inconstant, spasmodic or ill-directed labor; but faithful, unremitting daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, So is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.

劳动征服一切。这里所指的劳动不是断断续续的,间歇性的或方向偏差的劳动,而是坚定的,不懈的,方向正确的每日劳动。正如要想拥有自由就要时刻保持警惕一样,要想取得伟大的,持久的成功,就必须坚持不懈地努力。

here are a great many people who have all the material conditions of happiness, i.e. health and a sufficient income, and who, nevertheless, are profoundly unhappy. in such cases it would seem as if the fault must lie with a wrong theory as to how to live. in one sense, we may say that any theory as to how to live is wrong. we imagine ourselves more different from the animals than we are.

animals live on impulse, and are happy as long as external conditions are favorable. if you have a cat, it will enjoy life if it has food and warmth and opportunities for an occasional night on the tiles. your needs are more complex than those of your cat, but they still have their basis on instinct. in civilized societies, especially in english-speaking societies, this is too apt to be forgotten. people propose to themselves some one paramount objective, and restrain all impulses that do not minister to it.
