If I can achieve this “future”, I think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇3

  We've all been taught that we should help people. It is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. It may even win us favors in return. However, we must be realistic. We can't say yes to every request. If we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. Sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. In this case, we must know how to say no politely.

  There are several things you can do to project a good image in an interview. First of all, look like a winner. Dress conservatively and well, and you'll look like you're going to the top. Second, communicate clearly. C

  When we need to say no, here is one method we can try. First, we should tell the truth. If we really can't do something, we should just say so. Second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. We must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. A true friend will understand. Finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. Sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. It can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. In short, we cannot please everyone all the time. Refusing favors is a part of life.

  Efforts toward the success of the process, at first glance, like a black tunnel, sight of the head, such as Middle School graduating class of students, there are endless day of work, on the go, feel not enough sleep, many people every day, "the first cantilever cone piercing, to burn the midnight oil", a day in the "two line" between the hard work … … every day life is like a copier in print, everything is repeated.

  Do not forget, the sun is new!

  New, is a beautiful state of mind!

  The new sun, Is this not a hope?

  Every day see it, is like night and see the light of the black population, is it not a happiness?

  Yes, the weight of our heavy burden almost collapsed, too high expectations, we are firmly nailed to the ground, but perhaps the greatest burden is also a symbol of life enriched.

  Nietzsche said that people do not suffer the power of pessimism, so we do not have to smile toward victory, but the face of temporary difficulties, we have to smile, but also to heart smile.

  Indulge in the journey to success is to be truly "buried" go on, these days need to break the house in, calm down, only to maintain "calm the mind like water" state, to put the final sprint.

  We like that in the car, the destination, beautiful scenery along the way, it is tempting, but you better not to involve them too much energy, and make the eyes has been moving in the direction of the end, if the tolerance is not temporary living jumped out to enjoy the beauty, the car drove off, maybe you will see another vehicle, you might end up the same destination, but life is not your standard point moment.

  In a particular stage of life has a special mission.

  Study stage, is to achieve goals in life, when an important step, if miss this opportunity, you will be repentant, so severely heart, leaving the pretty girls for the time being a waste of time, the clothes and dress up, boys put aside their attractive comic books and computer games, put off that a distant "green apple" Love it!

  Summer, fall, fruit is not Abstract.

  Picked and eaten, not sweet gesture, or until the harvesting season, so go enjoy the harvest of joy in it!

  Set aside what irrelevant thoughts and move forward, looked up days, with the heart to see the world, because the sun always new.

  Softly said to himself: "If not me, the world will be less of a person appreciate the beautiful sun." Is such a state of mind, so you always wonderful for yourself!

  Spring, flowers, wind throw area; summer, flowers open, butterfly fluttering; autumn sky was clear and leaves as fire; winter, bleak, snowy, whether Hanlaishuwang, spring, summer autumn and winter, the sun rose as usual from … …

  No Better, I do not know who carried out normally enough, few people need to know how much effort to achieve the dream, we can only continue to move forward, forward, then forward, "We are seizing the day is long!"

  Seize the day, when you blankly; seize the day, when you depressed; seize the day, when you lazy, seize the day, at a time when you have a dream; the sun every day is new, Life is always full of hope, start now, take every moment, do not hesitate!

  So, thirty-one years ago today, I drove from Madison, Wisconsin, to Los Angeles, California. On the way, I passed Camp Randall, where my college graduation ceremony was in progress. I thought about going to the ceremony, but it meant I would've arrived in Hollywood one day later, and at the time I just didn't see the point. I wanted to get there.

  Gertrude Stein once said about Hollywood, "When you get there, there is no 'there' there." That's true. However, there will be a swimming pool and tennis court. In the end, though, it's probably not enough to justify a life's journey. Getting there, particularly in show business, is tough enough. You need a combination of talent, ambition, luck and a willingness to tell actors how beautiful they look today.

  In retrospect, getting there was the easy part. Finding a "there" there is much harder. So today, before you get into your cars and race off to the rest of your lives, I want to give you some advice on how to get there. And I want to help make sure that when you get there, you find a "there" there.

  To that end, I will give you my five rules to think about, quickly forget, but years from now kick yourself for not having listened to.

  英语励志演讲稿篇1中文翻译:

  向着成功努力的过程,乍一看,就像一条黑漆的隧道,望不到头,比如高三毕业班的学生,每天有做不完的作业,忙不完的事,睡不够的觉,许多人每天都要"头悬梁锥刺骨,地挑灯夜战",每天在"两点一线"之间劳碌……一天天的生活就像复印机里印出来的,一切都在重复。

  别忘了,太阳是新的!

  全新的,是一种最美的心境!

  新的太阳,难道这不是一种希望吗?

  每天都看见希望,就像是在黑口的夜里看见曙光,难道这不是一种幸福吗?

  是的,沉重的负担压得我们几乎崩溃了,太高的期望将我们紧紧地钉在地上,但也许最沉重的负担同时也是一种生活充实的象征。

  尼采说,受苦的人没有悲观的权力,所以我们不一定要向着胜利微笑,但面对暂时的困难,我们必须微笑,而且是会心动微笑。

  埋首于通向成功征途,是必须真真正正"埋"下去的,这段日子需要休沉下来,静下心来,只有保持"心静如水"的状态,才能投入最后的冲刺。

  我们好比是在乘一辆车前往目的地,沿途的风光很美,很诱人,但是你最好不要为了他们牵扯太多的精力, 而要使目光一直朝着终点的方向看,如果忍不住跳下车去欣赏暂时的美景,这辆车就开走了,也许你会看到另一辆车,也许最后你同样到达目的地,但那也不是你人生准点的时刻了。

  人生在特定的阶段有着特殊的使命。

  求学的阶段,就是为实现人生目标迈出重要一步的时候,如果错过这个机会,你将追悔莫及,所以狠狠心,女孩子们暂且丢下那些漂亮的衣服和浪费时间的打扮,男孩子们抛开那诱人的漫画书和电脑游戏,放一放那一段遥不可及的"青苹果"之恋吧!

  夏天不摘秋天的果。

  摘下来,食之不甜,弃之可惜,所以还是等到收获的季节里再去品尝丰收的喜悦吧!

  搁置一下与前进无关的心事,抬头望天,用心灵看世界,因为太阳常新。

  轻轻对自己说:"如果没有我,世界将少一个人欣赏这美丽的太阳。"就是这样一种心境,让你始终把精彩留给自己!

  春天,鸟语花香,微风抛面;夏天,百花开放,蝴蝶飞舞;秋天,天高云淡,红叶似火;冬天,寒风刺骨,白雪皑皑,无论寒来暑往,春夏秋冬,太阳照常升起……

  知足者常乐,不知足者常进,很少有人能知道需付出多少努力才能实现心中的梦想,我们只能不断前进、前进,再前进,"一万年太久我们只争朝夕"!

  只争朝夕,在你茫然的时候;只争朝夕,在你沮丧的时候;只争朝夕,在你懒散的时候,只争朝夕,在你还拥有梦想的时候;太阳每天都是新的,生活永远充满希望,现在就开始吧,把握每个瞬间,不要再犹豫!

  31年前的今天,我驾车从威斯康辛大学麦迪逊分校驶往加利福利亚州的洛杉矶。途径兰德尔体育场,当时我们学院的毕业典礼正在那儿举行。我曾想过去参加毕业典礼,但那就意为着我会迟到一天到好莱坞。当时,我不知道什么是重点,我只是想到好莱坞去。

  格特鲁格·斯坦因曾经这样形容好莱坞,“当你到了那儿的时候,在那里没有‘那里’。”她形容非常确切。但是,那里将会有游泳池和网球场。尽管这最后或许不足以证明生命的旅程是否正当。在那里,特别是在娱乐行业闯荡是非常艰难的。你要有才华、野心以及运气,并且还要能心甘情愿地告诉演员们他们今天看上去是多么美丽。

  回想过去,到达那里相对比较简单,而在这里寻找立足之地就比较困难了。因此,今天在你们坐在车里准备驶往未来时,我想给你们提几点建议,告诉你们如何实现自己的梦想。我想确保你们到达那里的时候,可以找到自己的目标,实现自己的梦想。

  为此,我想告诉你们我的5条规则,供你们思考,以便能尽快实现梦想。数年之后,你们懊悔没有认真听我讲,那就只能怪你们自己了。

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇5

  Courage is very important. Everyone needs it. We will meet manydifficulties in our life and sometimes we will fail, but we can’t lose courage.If we lose courage, we can’t do anything, because we don’t dare to do anything;we are afraid of failure. This is my Chinese teacher me in the first class. Iagree with him. For example, we don’t have the courage to hands up to say ouranswer, how can we know we are right or wrong. I will remember his wordforever,” never lose courage .”

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇6

  Good afternoon, everybody. I just want to say a few words about the landmark vote that the House of Representatives is poised to(随时准备着) take today -- a vote that can bring us one step closer to making real the promise of quality, affordable(支付得起) health care for the American people.

  For the better part of a year now, members of the House and the Senate have been working diligently(勤奋地) and constructively to craft legislation that will benefit millions of American families and millions of American businesses who urgently need it. For the first time ever, they've passed bills through every single committee responsible for reform. They've brought us closer than we have ever been to passing health insurance reform on behalf of the American people.

  Now is the time to finish the job. The bill that the House has produced will provide stability and security for Americans who have insurance; quality, affordable options for those who don't; and lower costs for American families and American businesses. And as I've insisted from the beginning, it is a bill that is fully paid for and will actually reduce our long-term federal deficit(赤字,不足).

  This bill is change that the American people urgently need. Don't just take my word for it. Consider the national groups who've come out in support of this bill on behalf of their members: The Consumers Union supports it because it will create -- and I quote -- "a more secure, affordable health care system for the American people."

  The American Medical Association and the American Nurses Association support it on behalf of doctors and nurses and medical professionals who know firsthand what's broken in our current system, and who see what happens when their patients can't get the care they need because of insurance industry bureaucracies(官僚政治).

  The National Farmers Union supports this bill because it will control costs for farmers and ranchers(牧场主), and address the unique challenges rural Americans face when it comes to receiving quality care.

  And the AARP supports it because it will achieve the goal for which the AARP has been fighting for decades -- reducing the cost of health care, expanding coverage for America's seniors, and strengthening Medicare for the long haul.

  Now, no bill can ever contain everything that everybody wants, or please every constituency(选区) and every district. That's an impossible task. But what is possible, what's in our grasp right now is the chance to prevent a future where every day 14,000 Americans continue to lose their health insurance, and every year 18,000 Americans die because they don't have it; a future where crushing costs keep small businesses from succeeding and big businesses from competing in the global economy; a future where countless dreams are deferred or scaled back because of a broken system we could have fixed when we had the chance.

  What we can do right now is choose a better future and pass a bill that brings us to the very cusp(尖头,尖端) of building what so many generations of Americans have sought to build -- a better health care system for this country.

  Millions of Americans are watching right now. Their families and their businesses are counting on us. After all, this is why they sent us here, to finally confront the challenges that Washington had been putting off for decades -- to make their lives better, to leave this country stronger than we found it.

  I just came from the Hill where I talked to the members of Congress there, and I reminded them that opportunities like this come around maybe once in a generation. Most public servants pass through their entire careers without a chance to make as important a difference in the lives of their constituents and the life of this country. This is their moment, this is our moment, to live up to the trust that the American people have placed in us -- even when it's hard; especially when it's hard. This is our moment to deliver.

  I urge members of Congress to rise to this moment. Answer the call of history, and vote yes for health insurance reform for America.

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇7

  if there is any single factor that makes for success in living, it is theability to profit by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because theperson was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his nextundertaking. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed indeed to failure.For it isn't defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeatthe guide and encouragement to success.

  生活中如果有任何一个因素可以促进成功,那就是从挫折中受益的能力。我所了解的每一次达到的成功都是因为那个人能够对挫折进行分析,在下一次工作中真正得益。如果混淆挫折和失败,你就注定会真正失败。因为不是挫折使你失败,而是你自己拒绝从挫折中看到成功的方向和勇气。关于挫折的英语作文

  Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are routine incidents in thelife of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you doface it without humiliation, analyze it and learn why you failed. Defeat, inother words, can help to cure its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us forsuccess, but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more andmore tightly until his whole weight is suspended. It is this same reaction whichshould give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If youexploit the power which defeat gives, you can accomplish with it far more thanyou are capable of.

  挫折并不可耻。在每个取得成功的人的生活中,挫折是家常便饭。但你一定要能够面对挫折而不感到羞耻,能够分析它并了解失败的原因,否则挫折就是绝对的损失。换言之,挫折可以帮助解决它自身的起因。挫折不但可以为我们成功做好准备,而且没有任何东西可以在我们的内心激发起如此强烈的想要成功的欲望。如果你让一个婴儿抓住一根竿子,然后试着把竿子抽出来,孩子就会越抓越紧,直到他们整个重量都依附于此。每次你被击败的时候,正是这同样的反应会赋予你崭新的更为巨大的力量。如果你能够利用挫折带来的这种力量,你就能够用它来完成远远超乎你能力的目标。

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇8

  as we know, you have to learn how to fly much more independently instead of under your parents’ considerate protection when you get into college, which also means you will come across enormous questions that should be solved by yourself. from my point of view, those main problems can fall into three parts.

  first of all, the complicated relationship. for one thing, you have to know how cultural differences function in your relationship and respect them. in addition, college students spend less time studying together owing to different courses’ choosing, which requires us to devote more energy to building relationship. for the other thing, it is also vital to communicate with your parents often by using mobile phones or other tools.

  secondly, the temptations. the college serves us a more relaxed environment mixed with other temptations such as the internet, alcohols and so on. what’s more, the college teachers won’t compel you to study like before, you doze off or play cell phone in class, and you flee up the morning class because you get up too late. such too frequent behaviors will cripple your passion and enthusiasm towards life, so it is essential for us to resist these temptations and insist pursuing our own goals.

  thirdly, the balance between study and work. most of us will choose to take a part time job to earn the extra money or just to exercise ourselves. but it is significant to keep a relatively balanced relationship between them since i always regard the study as our main task, so my principle is adjusting work to follow the schedule of study.

  in conclusion, whatever issues we meet or miseries we suffer from, confront the hash reality head on, what we can do is remembering the past, living in the present and looking forward to the future.

关于成长的英语演讲稿 篇9

  Hi, everybody.

  At a moment when our economy is growing, our businesses are creating jobs at the fastest pace since the 1990s, and wages are starting to rise again, we have to make some choices about the kind of country we want to be.

  Will we accept an economy where only a few of us do spectacularly well? Or will we build an economy where everyone who works hard has a chance to get ahead?

  That was the focus of my State of the Union Address-middle-class economics. The idea that this country does best when everyone gets their fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules. This week, I will send a budget to Congress that's built on those values.

  We'll help working families' paychecks go farther by treating things like paid leave and child care like the economic priorities that they are. We'll offer Americans of every age the chance to upgrade their skills so they can earn higher wages, with plans like making two years of community college free for every responsible student. And we'll keep building the world's most attractive economy for high-wage jobs, with new investments in research,infrastructure,manufacturing, and expanded access to faster internet and new markets. We can afford to make these investments.

  Since I took office, we've cut our deficits2 by about two-thirds-the fastest sustained deficit1 reduction since just after the end of World War II. We just have to be smarter about how we pay for our priorities, and that's what my budget does.

  It proposes getting rid of special interest loopholes in our tax code, and using those savings3 to cut taxes for middle-class families and reward businesses that invest in America. It refuses to play politics with our homeland security, and funds our national security priorities at home and abroad.

  And it undoes4 the arbitrary, across-the-board budget cuts known as "the seq

  quester5" for our domestic priorities, and matches those investments dollar-for-dollar in resources our troops need to get the job done.

  Now, I know that there are Republicans in Congress who disagree with my approach. And like I said in my State of the Union Address, if they have ideas that will help middle-class families feel some economic security, I'm all in to work with them.

  But I will keep doing everything I can to help more working families make ends meet and get ahead. Not just because we want everyone to share in America's success-but because we want everyone to contribute to America's success. That's the way the middle class thrived in the last century-and that's how it will thrive again.

  Thanks, and have a great weekend.

  Dear teachers and students:

  hello everyone!

  The title of my speech is "happy to see life, smile to welcome life".

  In the journey of life, we often encounter setbacks and failures and fall into all kinds of unexpected difficulties. At this time, please don't feel inferior and don't easily say: I can't do it. We should treat life with a positive and optimistic attitude, have the courage to cheer ourselves up and say to ourselves: great.

  There is such a story that the father's son's grades were mediocre and the family was "in constant war" all day. In the sound of scolding, his son's grades fell again and again, and finally became the penultimate first. My father thought, it's no use beating and scolding anyway. Just try a different attitude. So he looked at his son's test paper and said with a smile, "great, really great!" The son was surprised. The father said, "you think, a person who runs last doesn't have to worry that others will surpass him, but as long as you work hard, you will surpass others." After hearing this, his son suddenly realized that he worked very hard in his future study. After several exams, his son's grades rose to the top. From this story to see our study, we should be inspired: the exam is not ideal, depressed, we might as well say "great!" Because the exam points out our weakness in study and tells us the direction of our efforts.

  It's better to find problems now than to stumble and wake up in the middle school entrance examination. Failure put an end to yesterday, a new life begins here, and success takes off from here. Let's say "great" to ourselves in the face of setbacks. For us growing up, ups and downs are nutrition, and setbacks are the best university in life. Let's say "great" to ourselves in the face of difficulties. In overcoming difficulties, we continue to mature.

  As long as we are worthy of ourselves and our parents, let us treat our study and life with an optimistic attitude, constantly strive to forge ahead and write a brilliant movement of life!

  Thank you!

  HOW ARE TV PICTURES MADE?

  A TV picture starts with a TV camera. Some TV cameras are big and some are small. The cameras in TV studios are big. Camera operators roll the big cameras around on wheels. There are usually several big cameras in a TV studio. Cameras used outside a TV studio are smaller. TV camera crews take the smaller cameras to news and sports events.

  Some cameras send out live pictures to your TV set. Some cameras make videotapes that get played later on a television program.

  All TV cameras need electricity to work. A camera operator points the camera at a scene. The camera picks up light from the scene. It changes this light into an electric signal called the video signal. A microphone changes the sound of people talking or music playing into an electric signal called the audio signal.

  when a variety of problems plague the information systems, the critical importance of information security becomes the focus of people's concern. it does deserve the unprecedented emphasis.

  it is widely accepted that information security, to some extent, outweighs other spheres in the field of information. so the related authorities, enterprises, institutions and organizations place the high priority on it.

  information security concerns a range of problems- information interception, loss, damage etc. business and military information leakage will have an devastating impact. for the information owners and monitors, they must drive their efforts to enhance the security protection and maintenance.

  for example, a strict control over the access to the secret data shouldn't be absent. the network and software provider should take a set of tailored protection measures targeting different computer crimes. the security issues should be also considered at the legislative level, so we are clamoring for a law designed to clamp down on various cyber crimes.

  鼠疫信息系统各种问题时,至关重要的信息安全成为人们的关注的焦点。它应该得到前所未有的重视。

  人们普遍认为信息安全,在某种程度上,比其他领域领域的信息。所以有关部门、企业、机构和组织的优先。

  信息安全问题的一系列问题——信息拦截,损失,损害等商业和军事信息泄漏将产生毁灭性的影响。信息所有者和显示器,他们必须推动他们努力提高安全保护和维护。

  例如,一个严格控制访问机密数据不应该缺席。网络和软件提供商应该采取一系列的保护措施针对不同的计算机犯罪。安全问题应该也考虑在立法层面上,我们强烈要求法律旨在取缔各种网络犯罪。

  20xx年1月12日(星期四),我左手捧着粉红色的艺术节邀请函,右手握着给表演同学们加油鼓劲儿的荧光棒,怀着激动的心情踏进了执信中学的大门。

  这次艺术节的节目真可以说是五花八门,有唱歌的、跳舞的、朗诵的、合唱的、管乐的……看得我们目不暇接。节目一个比一个精彩,观众们大声鼓掌、喝彩。其中,我最喜欢的,就是管乐了。

  管乐队的同学们演奏的是周杰伦的《菊花台》和《牛仔很忙》。同学们在演奏的时候专心,把这两首曲子吹得很好听。把他们平时练就的本事展显得淋漓尽致。

  这么精彩的艺术节,你有没有错过呢?

  It is 20 years since the City of Taizhou was set up. Our city has become richer and people feel happier. Recently, all of us are talking about how to be civilized students in our .school.

  In my opinion, we should be polite to our parents and help them do more housework at home. At school, we should respect our teachers, get on well with our classmates and study hard. We should also obey traffic rules. When the traffic lights are red, we should stop. When we wait for a bus, we should wait in line. Don't throw litter or spit in public. And we'd better not talk or laugh loudly. We should never say dirty words. Be friendly to others and always ready to help the people in need.

  If everyone behaves well, our city will be more beautiful and more attractive.

  Let's join together to be civilized students!

  Good afternoon ladies and Gentlemen,

  I believe that humanism is about kindness and caring for people in need.

  I believe the role of humanism in today’s technological world is to guide technological development to respond to human need in a benevolent way.

  In 20xx I was in Yushu during that terrible earthquake. I experienced the full horror of buildings falling and people being trapped. I witnessed the quick response from modern technology when people inside yushu called people outside for help with their mobile phones. Very soon the whole world was responding whole heartedly. After only 5 hours, there was another sound- this time it was helicopters bringing doctors, medical supplies, and the facilities to evacuate the wounded to hospital.

  Recent advances in earthquake detection and rescue technology have been developed in response to the need to save lives quickly.

  Consider advances in green food technology, guided by the need for clean natural food and to protect the environment;

  Advances in water conservation and purification, guided by the need for clean drinking water and for crops and livestock;

  advances in delivering education to everyone, especially the use of video and the internet for distance learning;

  advances in medicine, especially affordable medicine for AIDS sufferers in Africa;

  and advances in building technology guided by the need to keep people safe and warm.

  All these are the result of responding to human needs with kindness and caring and guiding technology for the benefit of mankind.

  When I think about the world of advanced technology today, I think of my home, the remote and harsh environment of the Tibetan Plateau, and farmers living in tents with solar energy that they use to power their lights, TV, computers and to improve their lifestyle. I think of farmers talking on their mobile phones, discussing the weather patterns, the cost of food, community news and events. They even talk about Steve Jobs. The train to Lhasa, itself a wonderful engineering feat, brings modern medicine and education to these remote areas. The communities are now interlinked and connected, one of the most basic human needs.

  Human beings have a need to be connected, to be safe to be cared for in times of trouble and hardship.

  The development of technology must be guided by these needs. If this is not so, then the development of technology is in the hands of mean and, greedy people. The focus of technological development would be wars and weapons, fraud the misuse of information, and the exploitation of people, such as cheap labor.

  It can only be humanism which provides the guidance we all need for a better world.

  And it is you, who have the responsibility to use the technology wisely, to spread the kindness and caring.

  nowadays more and more young people prefer to follow the fashion. the word 'fashion' is generally used to mean style in clothing. they make people handsome and cool. also, fashion can be something strange. from that we can be different from others. but all of these can change from time to time. and valuable personal qualities and characters never change. so i think they are the true fashions.

  helpful and warm-hearted is a kind of fashion because not everyone can be like that. if you are not willing to help others, it is difficult for you to get along well with others. if you can always have a lot of friends, you are fashionable.

  love is always important in the world. many people around the world need care and love. if you can show you love to the people in need, you are fashionable.

  to protect the environment is fashion. if you don't use the plastic bags and do something to protect our earth, you are fashionable.

  so let's form good personal qualities. let's follow the fashion.

  Teachers ladies and gentlemen fellow cashman each female Sir good afternoon (morning).

  The topic of my speech is "let didnt fight obesity"!

  As we all know the four most beautiful women in ancient China: sink fish xi shi close your month the sable cicada wild goose zhaojun shame to spend Yang. Four big beautiful women there are three willow slender waist graceful but Yang height 1 meter 64 the weight be 138 catties.

  Datang fat as beauty datang emperor and Yang are all very favorite godson troops stationed height less than 1 meter 8 the weight be 330 catties.

  Yang troops stationed belong to obesity. The medical definition of obesity is that a certain degree of obvious overweight fat layer too thick is the body fat especially triglycerides accumulation is overmuch and lead to a state. Obesity can cause human pathology physiology psychological change is a disorder of latent factors.

  Whether their obesity the simplest method comparison method is height and weight minus 30 adult male height minus 50 adult female height is basically equal to the standard weight. Such as troops stationed 1 meter 8 minus 30 is equal to 150 catties. Such as Yang 1 meter 64 minus 50 equal to 114 catties. The 150 and 114 and relative to their height even the standard weight.

  Teacher please everyone here oneself measure is overweight. Multiple QiBaJin of course a QiBaJin less also calculate normal. (this can be a slight pause 10 to 20 seconds smile to observe the teachers to measure)

  Obesity is generally divided into two categories category because of illness taking hormone cause the endocrine disorder cause obesity. This fat known as symptomatic of obesity. This kind of obese patients accounted for about 5% of the obesity.

  Another type of obesity is eating too much eating quantity of heat more than itself heat consumption excess fat accumulated in the body form the fat cells lead to obesity this type of fat is called simple obesity. This kind of obesity more than 90% of the total number of obese people. We beat the main obesity.

  The causes of the obesity there are the following:

  (1) genetic factors caused by obesity

  General parents obesity the possibility of children obesity is big;

  (2) the unreasonable diet structure caused by obesity

  Mainly due to partial obesity;

  (3) too little movement lead to obesity

  Modern habits affluent and comfortable living environment the lack of sports consciousness lack of exercise behavior. Some people in particular after the meal down on the bed lay or after a meal a long time sit in front of computers TV sets a sit for hours rarely rarely movement become a otaku women don't go out for a long time "ma3 wu2 ye4’s grass isn't fat" eat sleep eat sitting not fat just strange!

  (4) medicial is also the important reason for the obesity

  Medicial make human body in the liver spleen kidney dysfunction stocks and so on can't redundant adipose is converted into heat discharge heat deposition in the body cause obesity;

  (5) spiritual factors is also one reason for the obesity

  As the saying goes: "laugh and grow fat." No thought burden eat sweet digestion absorption also very good. Or "sorrow" eating and drinking these can make heat soar lead to obesity.

  We know the definition of obesity we know that the standard of the obesity we know the causes of obesity standards and reasons and suit the remedy to the case the best prescription in addition to the diet not partial eclipse is movement is strong and handsome.

  Diet not partial eclipse is very simple hun vegetable collocation is good or bad to eat Chinese food to eat for breakfast dinner only eat my follow this is ok. Best don't "snack" horses have ye4’s grass isn eat satisfied to sleep must fatten up.

  Sports fitness is also very simple choose their favorite sports develop early to bed and early to rise makes routine perseverance unceasingly life movement.

  To bed early to put it bluntly it is morning early in the evening shut the computer off the TV it must be very simple. However a person as long as the simple one of the most simple little things for a long time for a long time stick to it he will very not easy!

  Sports aerobics aerobics can let the muscle oxygen content increased the oxygen content increases can get higher protein in the blood protein were able to increase our number of immune cells and immune cells increases will enhance immunity. At the same time aerobic exercise help the body carcinogens toxic and harmful substances timely drain discharge Julius promote metabolism Julius to speed up the fat consumption there is conducive to mental health.

  A person full of energy metabolism the body strong definitely helps with confidence definitely helps spirits certainly beneficial to emotional balance definitely helps the sun is shining definitely helps keep youth!

  One of Hong Kong shadow habitat song and dance male star. Birth name orea 20 years height 1 meter 83 72-75 kg health spirit sunshine youth. Has Hong Kong reporter asked hello how are you how do you keep youth?

  Hello how are you use English to answer the three tips: 1 smile; 2 peace of mind; 3 intense sport. (1 2 3 it's best to use English speak and then repeat in Chinese)

  The three secret was indeed the young and middle-aged people keep the youth is the best medicine.

  Smile always can give a person a kind of close to the feeling of affinity harmonious and kind is the manifestation of people and internal quality. The original Shanghai underworld eldest brother the mobsters said "wait have skill no temper." Comedian Hou Yuewen also said "ability is big small temper." Small temper temper show the image of course is the smile.

  Peace of mind it is people's inner quality is to control yourself control your emotions. This belongs to emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is a person to myself and to others emotional evaluation adjustment and control ability. People with high emotional intelligence is good at to communicate with people good interpersonal relationship is not easy to own mood swings also not easy is at the mercy of others feelings. Former U.S. President George Bush said: you can transfer the mood you will be able to mobilize all!

  Intense movement fundamentally let oneself healthy body healthy body can promote the psychological health physical and mental health can calm can keep smiling.

  Between the three secret it is the dialectical unification relations contact each other promote each other. Of course for the elderly not to strenuous exercise simply select the appropriate gentle exercise.

  So I want to shout loudly: movement is one of the most important! Go to the sports go to the fitness! Let the sports fitness to overcome!

  So I want to actively advocate: body building is one of the most important! Go to the fitness the gym. Again beautiful face body beautiful than you!

  "If you don't want to wake up and find you have no pants to wear, you'd better put themon in sleep," goes a popular joke among students. Obviously, campus thefts have becomeincreasingly annoying as they occur far more often than before. And it seems that the thievesare less choosy these days, with their targets ranging widely from bikes, cell phones, purses,pre-paid IC cards to sunglasses, bags, and even underwear. In short, anything that worth adime is likely to be stolen.

  What makes students the easy targets? The reasons are not hard to find. But I believe ofall these reasons, the lack of anti-theft alertness is the most important. For lack of alertness,the students tend to leave the doors and windows wide open during sleep at noon or at nightin summer. For the same reason, they'll also leave their bikes unlocked before a store or by aroad, or forget to take away their personal stuff before they go out of the classroom to make aphone call. These acts undoubtedly have increased their exposure to the light-fingeredmonsters.

  In order to minimize possible losses, the students must stay on guard in the first place, asawareness of the thefts around often makes a big difference. To be more specific, thestudents should not hide any tempting amount of cash in the dorm. Put it in the bank instead.Besides, do not leave any valuable items unattended. Take them wherever you go. Inaddition, it's advisable to develop a neighbourhood watch programme with other students inthe dorm and neighbouring dorms.

  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。

  Most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal. What is the secret to popularity? In fact, it is very simple. The first step is to improve our appearance. We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well. When we are healthy and well-groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better. In addition, we should smile and appear friendly. After all, our facial expression is an important part of our appearance. If we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.

  Another important step is developing more consideration for others. We should always put others first and place their interests before our own. It's also important to be good listeners; in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us. However, no matter what we do, we must not gossip. Above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies. Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect. If we can do all of the above, I am sure popularity will come our way.

  如何才能受人欢迎

  大部分的人都想受人欢迎,但是并非每个人都能达到目标。受欢迎的秘诀何在?事实上是很简单的。步骤一,先改善我们的外表。我们得确保自己很健康,并且穿着体面。当我们既健康又穿戴整齐时,不仅看起来更有精神,自己也会觉得好多了。此外,我们要保持微笑并表现得很友善。毕竟,脸部表情是外观很重要的一环。如果我们能做到这一点,别人会被我们的美好外表所吸引,并对我们的自信印象深刻。

  另一个重要步骤,就是培养对别人的体贴。永远以他人为重,并把别人的利益放在自己的利益之前。当个好听众也是很重要的;如此一来,别人才能很自在地对我们吐露心事。然而,不管我们做什么事,绝对不要说闲言闲语。最重要的是,要做自己,不要当虚伪的人。只有对人真诚又尊重时,才能赢得他人的尊敬。如果我们能做到以上几点,我相信受人欢迎是指日可待的事。

  i have the answer to a question that we've all asked. the question is, why is it that the letter x represents the unknown? now i know we learned that in math class, but now it's everywhere in the culture -- the x prize, the x-files, project x, tedx. where'd that come from?

  about six years ago i decided that i would learn arabic, which turns out to be a supremely logical language. to write a word or a phrase or a sentence in arabic is like crafting an equation, because every part is extremely precise and carries a lot of information. that's one of the reasons so much of what we've come to think of as western science and mathematics and engineering was really worked out in the first few centuries of the common era by the persians and the arabs and the turks.

  this includes the little system in arabic called al-jebra. and al-jebr roughly translates to “the system for reconciling disparate parts.“ al-jebr finally came into english as algebra. one example among many.

  the arabic texts containing this mathematical wisdom finally made their way to europe -- which is to say spain -- in the 11th and 12th centuries. and when they arrived there was tremendous interest in translating this wisdom into a european language.

  but there were problems. one problem is there are some sounds in arabic that just don't make it through a european voice box without lots of practice. trust me on that one. also, those very sounds tend not to be represented by the characters that are available in european languages.

  here's one of the culprits. this is the letter sheen, and it makes the sound we think of as sh -- “sh.“ it's also the very first letter of the word shalan, which means “something“ just like the the english word “something“ -- some undefined, unknown thing.

  now in arabic, we can make this definite by adding the definite article “al.“ so this is al-shalan -- the unknown thing. and this is a word that appears throughout early mathematics, such as this 10th century derivation of proofs.

  the problem for the medieval spanish scholars who were tasked with translating this material is that the letter sheen and the word shalan can't be rendered into spanish because spanish doesn't have that sh, that “sh“ sound. so by convention, they created a rule in which they borrowed the ck sound, “ck“ sound, from the classical greek in the form of the letter kai.

  later when this material was translated into a common european language, which is to say latin, they simply replaced the greek kai with the latin x. and once that happened, once this material was in latin, it formed the basis for mathematics textbooks for almost 600 years.

  but now we have the answer to our question. why is it that x is the unknown? x is the unknown because you can't say “sh“ in spanish. (laughter) and i thought that was worth sharing.
