To Be Or Not To Be The meaning of life, the meaning of death Everyone who knows Shakespeare must know his most well-known tragedy: Hamlet and that famous line: To be or not to be, that's a question.As for Hamlet, to be or not to be is quite a dilemma.He was doomed to be in a tragedy.Perhaps everyone will confront the similar choice to Hamlet in his life sooner or later.To survive or to die, to fight or to surrender, to win or to lose, he must make his own decision.Fortunately, I haven't come to that crucial point yet.Up till now, my life is like a smooth sailing.Sometimes I ask myself whether I have found the real meaning of life and death? Though I am going to be a biologist, I have no definite answer to that.But still I believe that I do find something in life.When I ramble along in the peaceful field, hearing the twittering of birds, drifting in the fragrance of wild flowers, I will always praise the beauty of life and feel really happy that I'm still alive.When I learn the mysterious nature and the evolution of life, I am filled with admiration by the greatness of nature.Life is a bestowing of nature and we have no right to kill it, for it's a part of universe.I remember one day, when I felt so frustrated by those misfortunes in life, it seemed that I had done everything wrong and there was no remedy at all.I left home, wandering along the street, feeling sad and hopeless.It was then when I caught sight of sunset.The sun was like a huge burning ball, flaring and shinning, and it was so glorious and so brilliant.Soon the whole sky was flaming, the sun gathered its last energy burning thoroughly, like the solemn end of a tragedy.It sank slowly under the horizon, soon darkness fell around me.I stood there not aware of where I was.Tears ran down my face.A voice cried out in my heart: “I will wait, till the sun rises again, till the first sunshine on my shoulder.” Perhaps that's the meaning of life.Everyone has his own sun and his own dream, and everyone has own brilliant moments when his sun shines gloriously.We'll struggle and suffer in order to reach that brilliant moment.Nothing can stop us, no matter how hard, no matter how many times we fail.That dream, deeply rooted in our heart, is worthy of being devoted our whole life to.All of us want to see the sun shining again and want to catch that glorious moment to appreciate the real beauty of life.Life is like a long river, it will end someday and somehow.No one can escape from that eternal end, when that day comes, we'll say goodbye to this colored world.A man's life is a man's song.Whether it's sad or happy, fierce or quiet, it's his own song.This is a song written in his own way with his soul, with his life.A man who lived, did what he should do, found what
he wanted and fulfilled his dream.He then died calmly.Because he knew that there was nothing to regret.He had seen all evil and good, ugly and beautiful.Now it was all over and it was time for him to enclose his play and give the stage to newcomers.His song was going to end, but it would never diminish, it would become a tiny part of the chorus of the universe, and that will sing forever.Another man lived, struggled, but never reached his dream, for him, life was a perpetual nightmare, then he saw the twilight, they glimmered far in the distance, though he had no time and he would never get there, his heart was quiet, for he knew he had tried his best.His song might only be a faint cry but he knew it was just the prelude to the grand movement of that chorus.He died happily, hearing the song were sung continually.The world is beautiful, because of warm sunshine and also because of its rain and storm.Only a man who has been drenched with tears can understand the real meaning of happiness.Once, a famous writer said in one of his novels: there is no real happiness in life, but just one situation compared with another.The whole meaning of life lies in two words “hope and wait”.To be or not to be, it all depends on a man's own attitude towards life, on whether he appreciates the morning sunshine, whether he wants to explore the beauty of nature.If thunderstorms come, it all depends on whether he still firmly believes that the sun will rise again.Yes, the sun is going to shine, and it will shine even more brilliantly.Do not cry, just wait and hope and fight.Life and death and the sunshine make the world.As they go generation after generation, day by day, the world goes round.Let's sing out our own song, lauding life, lauding world.

如何把一个复杂的陈述压缩至18分钟左右？加洛（Gallo）就这个问题提供了一些小建议，其中包括他所称的“三的法则”。具体说就是，把大量观点高度浓缩为三大要点。TED大会上的许多演讲高手就是这样做的。他还指出，即使一篇演讲无法提炼到这样的程度，单是这番努力也一定能改善演讲的效果：“仅仅通过这番提炼，你就可以大大增强陈述的创造性和影响力。”
另一个建议与PPT文档有关。如果你必须使用幻灯片，务必记得要大量运用图像资源。这种做法同样有科学依据，它就是研究人员所称的“图优效应”(Picture Superiority Effect)：听到或读到一组事实三天后，大多数人会记得大约10%的信息。而添加一张照片或图片后，记忆率将跃升至65%。

“She’s a child,” she told my father.“She’s not any older than seventeen, not possibly.She wears glasses.She’s very thin.She’s not an idiot, that’s not why they were getting rid of her, but she is mentally deranged, maybe, or on the borderline.”
My mother said, “Don’t go over there.”
Nevertheless I went.I did not take Owen because he would tell.I thought I would knock on the door and ask, in a very polite way, if it was all right for me to read the newspapers on the porch.But before I got to the steps the door opened and Madeleine came out with a stove-lid lifter in her hand.She might have been lifting a stove-lid when she heard me, she might not have picked it up on purpose, but I could not see it as anything but a weapon.“What are you come spyin’ around here for? What are you come spyin’ around my house for? You better get out of here.” She started down the steps.Her short hair was not combed, she was wearing a ragged print dress on her flat young body.Her violence seemed calculated, theatrical;you wanted to stay to watch it, as if it were a show, and yet there was no doubt, either, when she raised the stove-lifter over her head, that she would crack it down on my skull if she felt like it—that is, if she felt the scene demanded it.I wished I could take this scene back to tell at home.Stories of Madeleine were being passes up and down the road.Something had annoyed her in the store and she had thrown a box of Kotex at Charlie Buckle.(Lucky she wasn’t holding a can of corn syrup!)Uncle Benny lived under a hailstorm of abuse, you could hear it from the road.“Got yourself a Tartar there, didn’t you, Benny?” people would say, and he would chuckle and nod, abashed, as if receiving congratulations.After a while he started telling stories himself.She had thrown the kettle through the window because there wasn’t any water in it.She had taken the scissors and cut up his green suit, which he had only worn once, at his wedding;he didn’t not know what she had against it.She had said she would set fire to the house, because he had brought her the wrong brand of cigarettes.Early in the spring, before the snow was all gone, he came one day to say that Madeleine had left.
