From saving comes having
Old proverbs sound trite at times to our ears.But they have lived because in that particular word combination lies still an older truth.And no truth could be older than “From saving comes having” and it reminds me of the importance of saving.How come is that a penny saved is a penny earned------and I would say a penny saved is more than a penny earned and it can be twice got.Suppose that by declining to spend a penny and to save one’s money instead, you’re a penny up rather than a penny down, hence twice got!That’s not great arithmetic, but it does make a good sense.Nowadays most of Chinese people are leading a fairly comfortable life because we are wealthier than ever before.Some of us can even afford much more than they really need.However, when we begin to enjoy what we have already, we certainly should make the best of what we have, but not waste them.It’s absolutely a wrong idea that saving or being thrifty is already out of fashion in modern society.If you have no awareness of saving and spend more than you make, you’ll find your wealth disappearing little by little, day by day.And in the end, you’ll have nothing left.In the broader sense, there will always be the need to energetically encourage the practice of building up the country and going in for all undertakings through thrift and hard work.And we should not confine our efforts to money saving only.It may be a more urgent task for us to save energy and natural resources as well.We only have limited fresh water, limited land, limited coal and limited oil.To save is to have them for longer.That’s why sustainable development is so widely pursued around the world.Saving doesn’t mean being a penny pincher.It’s no doubt that we should spend our money on where it should be spent but not spend it meaninglessly.Saving doesn’t create any fortune, but it guarantees you a constant having.Our saving should start from our daily life where many people always neglect because they don’t realize its power.The power of saving is that of accumulation.That from small increments comes abundance is a law of nature.From saving comes having.A penny saved is more than a penny earned.With saving, having will be sustaining;without saving, having will eventually be nothing.11.Reading Selectively or Extensively
Once a famous English philosopher Francis Bacon said, “Reading makes a full man”, which means that anyone who wants to be a full man must keep on reading.But books are of various kinds and different contents.Then how to read? People's ideas on reading differ greatly from person to person.Some are in favor of the idea of reading selectively, just as some of my friends.They believe that it is not how much one reads but what he reads that really counts.Living in an information age, more and more books are published each year, it is impossible and unnecessary for us to read all the books.Moreover, there are certainly some books which are not worth reading.So, we should select some books we are interested in and ignore others.Reading selectively can help us concentrate our limited time and attention on those selected books.However, I think that reading extensively is also essential.In my opinions, different books are of different uses.Just like Bacon mentioned, “Histories make men wise;poets witty;the mathematics subtle;natural philosophy deep;moral grave;logic and rhetoric able to content.” And that now branches of knowledge diverge into each other rather than are isolated from each other.Therefore, reading widely is necessary for a full man.In my viewpoint, we should read both selectively and extensively.The two reading ways have their respective advantages in our reading.We can read selectively for specialized knowledge, or read widely for general information.If we only read selectively, our knowledge may be limited in a specific field.If we read too extensively, we may not have so much time and energy and be expertise in one particular field.Therefore, the combination of the two ways will be more reasonable and beneficial.By doing so, we can not only become a knowledgeable person in our own field, but also become a well-informed and qualified modern man.Laughter Is the Shortest Distance between Two People At first, let me share a story about my roommate Berry and I.A few weeks ago, Berry quarreled with me for an insignificant thing, neither she nor I wanted to surrender and broke the icy silence between us.One day, she got a party to attend.In the process of making preparation, she shared a funny story about herself to our roommates.As she was doing her making-up, she accidently got her mascara brush stuck in her forehead hair!The scene that she tried to push the mascara brush out of her forehead hair was so amusing and the face she was making up was so funny!All of us couldn’t help bursting out loud laugh over it, Berry and I smiled to each other and we knew that we like each other.So as you see, laughter makes people closer, laughter is the shortest distance between two people, just as Victor Borge says.“Every morning when you come across a stranger on the way to office, if you smile at him or her, you will feel like you are friends.Every evening before you go to bed, a bedtime story to your dear kid will introduce stronger family bond in your family, and you will have a sweet dream.”
Any time when you have some troubles in getting along with your friends, family member or neighborhood, a funny story or a humorous joke will build a bridge between you and you will have a nice time with him or her.No Man is Rich Enough to Buy Back His Past The movie Seventeen Again tell us a story about a man who held a desperate attitude towards life in his 30’s.He lost his job and divorced with his wife, feeling the whole world was upside down.However, after being changed back into 17 by an old mysterious man, he gradually realized that the life he had chosen was the best life and he need to cherish.The man in the movie was lucky enough to know the true meaning of life, but actually in our real life, we have no other chance to go back to our past.Even a wealthy man with quantities of property could not buy back his past, since the old days are irretrievable.Life is like a drama, God gives everyone only one chance to play on the stage, once missed, it still makes no difference even one is sighing and shedding tears of regret.Nothing in the world can measure time, let alone money.As the British dramatist John Fletcher said, weep no more, no sigh, no groan , sorrow calls no time that’s gone.So what we should do is not trying to make compensation for our past or think of the good memories but making the best of our rest life.An sensible man will always look into the future, while those who put too much attention on the past lead an unhappy life.Every day is a new day and every hour is the blessed gift of God.Life is too short to waste, if we don’t cherish the time now, no mysterious man will bring us back into our past, no magic will happen.Believe me, we have no ability and we don’t need to buy back our past.Just cherish and lead a life in a best way, then we’ll be the happiest people in the world.No road of flowers leads to glory Looking back on the river of history, we may find that success happens not by chance--The road to success is full of thorn.The history of successful people is the record of blood and tears.In the pursuit of success, we may be questioned and condemned.Nevertheless, we must keep in mind that only by persistent effort, can the success knock the door.When we are faced with difficulties? What should we do? To stop or to go on? Mrs.Curie told us the answer.We all know that Mrs.Curie discovered radium, but how many people really know how hard she worked? At that time, there were many people disapprove of Mrs.Curie.Although she got over hundreds of difficulties, she still believed in herself and never gave up.Finally, she succeeded to discover radium.She proved that she was right by her persistent effort and her strong spirit.We should learn from Mrs.Curie.She told us the truth through her own experiences that believe in yourself, you can do it!Never give up, accept the challenge and face the difficulties with a smile, someday, you will be proud of yourself.No one knows how happy you will be after you try your best and succeed until you do it.That is to say, when you face with difficulty, don’t easily give up.Maybe just try one more time;you can get the fruits of victory.What You Have Learned from Sichuan Earthquake Recently, when you flip open a newspaper, turn on the TV, log onto the web, it is about the Ya'an earthquake in Sichuan.Before the 7.0-magnitude earthquake, Ya'an was an elegant and peaceful city.But after it, Ya'an became a town with still air and severely damaged buildings, with no birds singing happily there once more.The death toll has reached almost 200, with mourns everywhere in China.Facing up to such a huge disaster, what we can do is to pray for the dead and try to learn most from it.In fact, personally, I have learned much from it.First of all, “Love is to be found everywhere.” It's a different time for everyone in and out the disaster area.And many individuals and institution from other parts of China and from all over the world actively extend their helping hands by donating food, clothes and money to the local people living there.In front of natural disasters, effects of earthquakes could be fatal, but the team spirit can help many families live a new life.Secondly, to lessen the damage caused by natural disasters, measures should be taken to ensure construction quality.We can't deny that our life and property would be safer if our house and buildings could be with stronger structure and of better quality.Therefore, we should bear deeply the importance of the sentence in mind that prevention is better than cure, which includes enhancing the quality of constructions at the very beginning and helping more people escape from the dangerous buildings when it happened all of a sudden.Thirdly, none of us can predict the exact future and we can never know what will happen in the next minute.Life is so amazing that we hope we can have chance to experience every tiny sweet moment.So we should have a right view of life and be able to maintain optimistic attitude when facing difficulties.Life seems to be vulnerable when facing natural disasters, whereas it seems to be strong when we choose to face the difficulties bravely.We are not predictors, but we can choose to spend every day with our genuine heart.My dear fellows please cherish every moment with your friends and family, and every chance to achieve your dream.Finally, may the soul of the deceased rest in peace, and the living be strong.

第三篇:大英演讲稿 2
哈喽,大家好,欢迎收看优酷全娱乐,我是主持人伊伊,最近《爸爸去哪》正在热播。孩子们的可爱举动迎来了观众们不少好评。下面我们来采访一下观众的看法.Hello,everyone.Welcome to Youku complete recreation,I am the host,Dad, Where are We Going to is hit recently.The children's cute acts ushered the audience a lot of praise.Let's interview some audiences.A:请问你有看这个节目么? Do you have a look at the show? B:是的,它非常好看。Yes, it is very nice
A:你对这档节目有什么感想?
What do you think about the program?
B:孩子们真的好可爱,而且通过这档节目让我们知道爸爸要多陪伴孩子。父爱对孩子的成长很重要。
The children are really cute, through this program we know that father should accompany the children as more as possible。The role of a father is very important to the growth of children
A:是的,5个孩子的可爱举动深深吸引了我们,并且改变一些人认为小孩子非常淘气、爱哭、不听话的想法。对此您有什么看法?
Yes, five children’s cute acts attracted us deeply, and changed some people’s thought that a child is very naughty, often cries, and not obedient
[əu'bi:diənt]。What do you think of that?
B:我认为孩子的本性就是爱玩,淘气,作为家长我们不能扼杀孩子的天性。而且就是孩子的淘气、单纯才让人们觉得可爱。相反,如果他们什么都懂,沉着稳重,那么我觉得《爸爸去哪》就不会这么受欢迎。
I think children’s instinct is playing, being naughty,and as parents, we can't kill the child's nature。And it is the child's being naughty, being innocent that makes people feel they are lovely.On the contrary, if children know everything,being calm and steady,So I think the Dad, Where are We Going to wouldn't be so welcome。A:嗯,《爸爸去哪》在热播的同时,也有专家对5位爸爸的教子之道进行了点评。专家认为田亮是典型的“中国式父母”,他爱女儿,但更好面子,在女儿面前也特别端着身份。例如他对Cindy说的一些话:“你是来表演哭得吗?”把面子看得比孩子的感受更重。您认同专家的说法吗?
Well, “ when Dad, Where are We Going to hit at the same time, experts also have a review on five dad godson way.Experts believe that Tian Liang is a typical ”Chinese parents“, he loves his daughter, but he is more concerned about faces, also carrying identity of a father in front of his daughter.For example, he said to Cindy some of the words: ”Are you performing to cry?“ The face is heavier than the feelings of children.Do you agree what the experts said? B:说实话一开始看这节目的时候没有觉得田亮的做法有什么不对。听了专家的点评后觉得很有道理。而且专家还说Cindy在爸爸的影响下,容易形成敏感、紧张的性格,同时不会像很多女孩子一样撒娇,反而在很多事情上拼命努力,力求成绩,甚至在体力活上也咬牙要胜过男孩子,长大了会是一个爱逞能的女汉子。To tell the truth, I did not feel that it is wrong with Tian’s approach at the beginning.After listening to the expert review,I feel very reasonable.And experts also said that Cindy will form the character of being sensitive, nervous under the influence of the father.At the same time she will not play the woman like many girls do ,but does things as hard, and strives to performance, even grinds on the physical strength to live better than boys.She will be a person like conceited female man when she grows up.A:恩,孩子就是爸爸的缩影。那么,您对郭涛的教育方式有何看法?
Well, children are the epitome of dad.So, do you have any comment for Guo Tao's education way?
B:正如专家所说郭涛对儿子没什么架子,当男子汉来操练,胳膊断了还坚持参加节目。当石头找到锅回来邀功,他大赞一声:“好小子!” 就像长官赏识下属一样。
As experts said Guo Tao have little shelf for his son and to practice him as a man.Although his Arm is broken,he still stick to attend the show,When the Stone find POTS coming back for credit。He praised: ”good boy!" As chief praised the subordinates.【sə'bɔːdɪnət】
A:好的,谢谢您的回答。Ok, thank you for your answer.B:不客气
you're welcome
节目到此结束,下周同一时间我们再见。
Program to this end, we see next week at the same time.
第四篇:大英作文。。。
Who Should Pay for Cleaning Up Pollution?
Many people say that companies and tour operators should pay the bills for cleaning up pollution, instead of the government.To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include relevant examples from your knowledge and experience.With the development of the society and tourist industry, the pollution condition is more and more serious.But who should pay for cleaning up pollution after all?
Many people say that, the government should pay for it certainly.First, it’s social issue.Second, the government is people’s public servant.They should do something for us people.Cleaning up pollution is one of important part.So the government should pay for cleaning up pollution, especially environmental protection agency.But not all people agree that, some think tour operators should be responsible for cleaning up pollution.You can see that, a number of tourist attractions suffer pollution from tourists, like West Lake, Taihu Lake, and so on.Tour operators profit from tourist attractions, but bring garbage to them.By this token, they also should pay for cleaning up pollution.Except above of them, some people believe companies shoulder the major responsibility.Because industrial pollution influence our environment best.For example, acid rain, three industrial wastes, etc.And they also have many fund to pay for it.In my opinion, the earth is only one, the government, companies and tour operators are should pay for cleaning up pollution.In fact, the earth belong to everyone, everybody is responsible for protecting it.题目:[326086] Should Public Money Be Spent on Promoting Healthy Lifestyle?
