第一篇：语言大师Sarah Jones 在TED中的演讲中英文翻译

Transcript for Sarah Jones as a one-woman global village I should tell you that when I was asked to be here, I thought to myself that well, it's TED.And these TEDsters are--you know, as innocent as that name sounds-these are the philanthropists and artists and scientists who sort of shape our world.And what could I possibly have to say that would be distinguished enough to justify my participation in something like that? And so I thought perhaps a really civilized sounding British accent might help things a bit.And then I thought no, no.I should just get up there and be myself and just talk the way I really talk because, after all, this is the great unveiling.And so I thought I'd come up here and unveil my real voice to you.Although many of you already know that I do speak the Queen's English because I am from Queens, New York.(Laughter)But the theme of this session, of course, is invention.And while I don't have any patents that I'm aware of, you will be meeting a few of my inventions today.And I suppose it's fair to say that I am interested in the invention of self or selves.We're all born into certain circumstances with particular physical traits, unique developmental experiences, geographical and historical contexts.But then what? To what extent do we self-construct, do we self-invent? How do we self-identify and how mutable is that identity? Like, what if one could be anyone at any time? Well my characters, like the ones in my shows, allow me to play with the spaces between those questions.And so I've brought a couple of them with me.And well, they're very excited.What I should tell you--what I should tell you is that they've each prepared their own little TED talks.So feel free to think of this as Sarah University.(Laughter)Okay.Okay.Oh, well.Oh, wonderful.Good evening everybody.Thank you so very much for having me here today.Ah, thank you very much.My name is Loraine Levine.Oh my!There's so many of you.Hi sweetheart.Okay.(Laughter)Anyway, I am here because of a young girl, Sarah Jones.She's a very nice, young, black girl.Well you know, she calls herself black, she's really more like a caramel color if you look at her.But anyway,(Laughter)she has me here because she puts me in her show, what she calls her one-woman show.And you know what that means, of course.That means she takes the credit and then makes us come out here and do all the work.But I don't mind.Frankly, I'm kvelling just to be here with all the luminaries you have attending something like this, you know.Really, it's amazing.Not only, of course, the scientists and all the wonderful giants of the industries but the celebrities.There are so many celebrities running around here.I saw--Glenn Close I saw earlier.I love her.And she was getting a yogurt in the Google cafe.Isn't that adorable.(Laughter)So many others you see, they're just wonderful.It's lovely to know they're concerned, you know.And--oh, I saw Goldie Hawn.Oh, Goldie Hawn.I love her, too;she's wonderful.Yeah.You know, she's only half Jewish.Did you know that about her? Yeah.But even so, a wonderful talent.And I--you know, when I saw her, such a wonderful feeling.Yeah, she's lovely.But anyway, I should have started by saying just how lucky I feel.It's such an eye-opening experience to be here.You're all so responsible for this world that we live in today.You know, I couldn't have dreamed of such a thing as a young girl.And you've all made these advancements happen in such a short time.You're all so young.You know, you're parents must be very proud.But I--I also appreciate the diversity that you have here.I noticed it's very multicultural.You know, when you're standing up here, you can see all the different people.It's like a rainbow.It's okay to say rainbow.Yeah.I just--I can't keep up with whether you can say, you know, the different things.What are you allowed to say or not say? I just--I don't want to offend anybody.You know.But anyway, you know, I just think that to be here with all of you accomplished young people, literally, some of you, the architects building our brighter future.You know, it's heartening to me.Even though, quite frankly, some of your

presentations are horrifying, absolutely horrifying.It's true.It's true.You know, between the environmental degradation and the crashing of the world markets you're talking about.And of course, we know it's all because of the--all the...Well, I don't know how else to say it to you, so I'll just say it my way.The ganeyvish tetikeyt coming from the governments and the, you know, the bankers and the Wall Street.You know it.Anyway.(Laughter)The point is, I'm happy somebody has practical ideas to get us out of this mess.So I salute each of you and your stellar achievements.Thank you for all that you do.And congratulations on being such big makhers that you've become TED meisters.So, happy continued success.Congratulations.Mozel tov.(Applause)Hi.Hi.Thank you everybody.Sorry, this is such a wonderful opportunity and everything, to be here right now.My name is Noraida.And I'm just--I'm so thrilled to be part of like your TED conference that you're doing and everything like that.I am Dominican American.Actually, you could say I grew up in the capital of Dominican Republic, otherwise known as Washington Heights in New York City.But I don't know if there's any other Dominican people here, but I know that Juan Enriquez, he was here yesterday.And I think he's Mexican, so that's--honestly, that's close enough for me, right now.So--(Laughter)I just--I'm sorry.I'm just trying not to be nervous because this is a very wonderful experience for me and everything.And I just--you know I'm not used to doing public speaking.And whenever I get nervous I start to talk really fast.Nobody can understand nothing I'm saying, which is very frustrating for me, as you can imagine.I usually have to just like try to calm down and take a deep breath.But then on top of that, you know, Sarah Jones told me we only have 18 minutes.So then I'm like, should I be nervous, you know, because maybe it's better.And I'm just trying not to panic and freak out.So I like, take a deep breath.Okay.Sorry.So anyway, what I was trying to say is that I really love TED.Like, I love everything about this.It's amazing.Like, it's--I can't get over this right now.And, like, people would not believe, seriously, where I'm from, that this even exists.You know, like even, I mean I love like the name, the--TED.I mean I know it's a real person and everything, but I'm just saying that like, you know, I think it's very cool how it's also an acronym, you know, which is like, you know, is like very high concept and everything like that.I like that.And actually, I can relate to the whole like acronym thing and everything.Because, actually, I'm a sophomore at college right now.At my school--actually I was part of co-founding an organization, which is like a leadership thing, you know, like you guys, you would really like it and everything.And the organization is called DA BOMB, And DA BOMB--not like what you guys can build and everything--It's like, DA BOMB, it means like Dominican--it's an acronym--Dominican American Benevolent Organization for Mothers and Babies.So, I know, see, like the name is like a little bit long, but with the war on terror and everything, the Dean of Student Activities has asked us to stop saying DA BOMB and use the whole thing so nobody would get the wrong idea, whatever.So, basically like DA BOMB--what Dominican American Benevolent Organization for Mothers and Babies does is, basically, we try to advocate for students who show a lot of academic promise and who also happen to be mothers like me.I am a working mother, and I also go to school full-time.And, you know, it's like--it's so important to have like role models out there.I mean, I know sometimes our lifestyles are very different, whatever.But like even at my job--like, I just got promoted.Right now it's very exciting actually for me because I'm the Junior Assistant to the Associate Director under the Senior Vice President for Business Development.That's my new title.So, but I think whether you own your own company or you're just starting out like me, like something like this so vital for people to just continue expanding their minds and learning.And if everybody, like all people really had access to that, it would be a very different world out there, as I know you know.So, I think all people, we need that, but especially, I look at people like me, you know like, I mean, Latinos, we're about to be the majority, in like two weeks.So, we deserve just as much to be part of the exchange of ideas as everybody else.So, I'm very happy that you're, you know, doing this kind of thing, making the talks available online.That's very good.I love that.And I just--I love you guys.I love TED.And if you don't mind, privately now, in the future, I'm going to think of TED as an acronym for Technology, Entertainment and Dominicans.Thank you very much.(Laughter)(Applause)So, that was Noraida, and just like Loraine and everybody else you're meeting today, these are folks who are based on real people from my real life.Friends, neighbors, family members.I come from a multicultural family.In fact, the older lady you just met, very, very loosely based on a great aunt on my mother's side.It's a long story, believe me.But on top of my family background, my parents also sent me to United Nations school, where I encountered a plethora of new characters including Alexandre, my French teacher, okay.Well, you know, it was beginner French, that I am taking with her, you know.And it was Madame Bousson, you know, she was very [French].It was like, you know, she was there in the class, you know, she was kind of typically French.You know, she was was very chic, but she was very filled with ennui, you know.And she would be there, you know, kind of talking with the class, you know, talking about the, you know, the existential futility of life, you know.And we were only 11 years old, so it was not appropriate.But [German].Yes, I took German for three years,[German], and it was quite the experience because I was the only black girl in the class, even in the UN school.Although, you know, it was wonderful.The teacher, Herr Schtopf, he never discriminated.Never.He always, always treated each of us, you know, equally unbearably during the class.So, there were the teachers and then there were my friends, classmates from everywhere.Many of whom are still dear friends to this day.And they've inspired many characters as well.For example, a friend of mine.Well, I just wanted to quickly say good evening.My name is Praveen Manvi and thank you very much for this opportunity.Of course, TED, the reputation precedes itself all over the world.But, you know, I am originally from India, and I wanted to start by telling you that once Sarah Jones told me that we will be having the opportunity to come here to TED in California, originally, I was very pleased and, frankly, relieved because, you know, I am a human rights advocate.And usually my work, it takes me to Washington D.C.And there, I must attend these meetings, mingling with some tiresome politicians, trying to make me feel comfortable by telling how often they are eating the curry in Georgetown.So, you can just imagine--right.So, but I'm thrilled to be joining all of you here.I wish we had more time together, but that's for another time.Okay? Great.(Applause)And, sadly, I don't think we'll have time for you to meet everybody I brought, but-I'm trying to behave myself.It's my first time here.But I do want to introduce you to a couple of folks you may recognize, if you saw “Bridge and Tunnel.” Uh, well, thank you.Good evening.My name is Pauline Ning, and first I want to tell you that I'm--of course I am a member of the Chinese community in New York.But when Sarah Jones asked me to please come to TED, I said, well, you know, first, I don't know that, you know--before two years ago, you would not find me in front of an audience of people, much less like this because I did not like to give speeches because I feel that, as an immigrant, I do not have good English skills for speaking.But then, I decided, just like Governor Arnold Schwartzenegger, I try anyway.(Laughter)My daughter--my daughter wrote that, she told me, “Always start your speech with humor.” But my background--I want to tell you story only briefly.My husband and I, we brought

our son and daughter here in 1980s to have the freedom we cannot have in China at that time.And we tried to teach our kids to be proud of their tradition, but it's very hard.You know, as immigrant, I would speak Chinese to them, and they would always answer me back in English.They love rock music, pop culture, American culture.But when they got older, when the time comes for them to start think about getting married, that's when we expect them to realize, a little bit more, their own culture.But that's where we had some problems.My son, he says he is not ready to get married.And he has a sweetheart, but she is American woman, not Chinese.It's not that it's bad, but I told him, “What's wrong with a Chinese woman?” But I think he will change his mind soon.So, then I decide instead, I will concentrate on my daughter.The daughter's marriage is very special to the mom.But first, she said she's not interested.She only wants to spend time with her friends.And then at college, it's like she never came home.And she doesn't want me to come and visit.So I said, “What's wrong in this picture?” So, I accused my daughter to have like a secret boyfriend.But she told me, “Mom, you don't have to worry about boys because I don't like them.”(Laughter)And I said, “Yes, men can be difficult, but all women have to get used to that.” She said, “No Mom.I mean, I don't like boys.I like girls.I am lesbian.” So, I always teach my kids to respect American ideas, but I told my daughter that this is one exception--(Laughter)that she is not gay, she is just confused by this American problem.But she told me, “Mom, it's not American.” She said she is in love, in love with a nice Chinese girl.(Laughter)So, these are the words I am waiting to hear, but from my son, not my daughter.(Laughter)But at first I did not know what to do.But then, over time, I have come to understand that this is who she is.So, even though sometimes it's still hard, I will share with you that it helps me to realize society is more tolerant, usually because of places like this, because of ideas like this and people like you, with an open mind.So I think maybe TED, you impact people's lives in the ways that maybe even you don't realize.So, for my daughter's sake, I thank you for your ideas worth spreading.Thank you.Shin shen.(Applause)Good evening.My name is Habbi Belahal.And I would like to first of all thank Sarah Jones for putting all of the pressure on the only Arab who she brought with her to be last today.I am originally from Jordan.And I teach comparative literature at Queens College.It is not Harvard.But I feel a bit like a fish out of water.But I am very proud of my students.And I see that a few of them did make it here to the conference.So you will get the extra credit I promised you.But, while I know that I may not look like the typical denizen, as you would say, I do like to make the point that we in global society we are never as different as the appearances may suggest.So, if you will indulge me, I will share quickly with you a bit of verse, which I memorized as a young girl at 16 years of age.So, back in the ancient times.[Arabic] And this roughly translates: “Please, let me hold your hand.I want to hold your hand.I want to hold your hand.And when I touch you, I feel happy inside.It's such a feeling that my love, I can't hide, I can't hide, I can't hide.” Well, so okay, but please, please, but please.If it is sounding familiar, it is because I was at the same time in my life listening to The Beatles.On the radio [unclear], they were very popular.So, all of that is to say that I like to believe, that for every word intended to render us deaf to one another, there is always a lyric connecting ears and hearts across the continents in rhyme.And I pray that this is the way that we will self invent, in time.That's all [unclear].Thank you very much for the opportunity.Okay? Great.(Applause)Thank you all very much.It was lovely.Thank you for having me.(Applause)Thank you very, very much.I love you.(Applause)Well, you have to let me say this.I just--thank you.I want to thank Chris and Jaqueline, and just everyone for having me here.It's been a long time coming, and I feel like I'm home, and I know I've performed

for some of your companies or some of you have seen me elsewhere, but this is honestly one of the best audiences I've ever experienced.The whole thing is amazing, and so don't you all go reinventing yourselves any time soon.

第二篇：杨澜TED演讲中英文对照

杨澜TED演讲：重塑中国的年轻一代

The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of “China's Got Talent” show in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium.在我去苏格兰的前一晚，中国达人秀邀请我 到上海主持总决赛 体育馆的现场有八万名观众.Guess who was the performing guest? Susan Boyle.And I told her, “I'm going to Scotland the next day.” 知道特别嘉宾是谁吗？ 苏珊大妈.我告诉她，“我明天要去苏格兰.“She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese: 她不但歌声非常动听，还学会了说几句中文.送你葱 So it's not like ”hello“ or ”thank you,“ that ordinary stuff.她说:“送你葱” 这句话的意思不是“你好,” “谢谢,” 那类的话.It means ”green onion for free.“ ”送你葱“意思是“免费的大葱.” Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle--a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese.她為什么要说这句话呢? 因為“送你葱” 是来自有著”中国苏珊大妈“之称的 一位五十多岁 在上海卖菜的女摊贩, 她非常喜欢西方歌剧, 但她不懂歌词的意思 也不会说英语, 法语, 或是意大利语, 所以她以独特的方式来记歌词 将歌词全部换成蔬菜名.(Laughter)And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was ”green onion for free.“ So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together.That was hilarious.意大利歌剧公主彻夜未眠的最后一句 她当时就是以 ”送你葱“来演唱的.当苏珊大妈说了这句话的时候, 现场的八万名观众一起跟著唱了起来.当时的场面十分有趣.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness.They were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through.And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.我想苏珊大妈和这位在上海做蔬菜买卖的都属于与众不同的一类。她们被认为是在演艺圈最不可能取得成功的人，但是他们的勇气和天赋把她们带到了梦想的彼岸。而且有一个节目去给他们舞台去实现自己的梦想。Well, being different is not that difficult.We are all different from different perspectives.But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view.You may have the chance to make a difference.当然与众不同并没有那么难，从不同的角度看我们都是不一样的。我认为与众不同是好的，因为表现出你有不同的观点，这给你机会去产生不同的影响。

My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.我这个年代的人是幸运的 我们目睹并参与了 中国歷史性的变化.在过去的二，三十年裡 中国发生了很多变化.I remember that in the year of 1990, when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton--it's still there.So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, ”So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me?“ I summoned my courage and poise and said, ”Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell?“ I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel.That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.我还记得1990年的时候.我刚好读完大学, 我当时申请了一个营销的工作 地点是北京的一个五星级宾馆, 这个宾馆现在还有, 叫喜来登长城饭店.在被一位日本经理 询问了半小时之后, 他在面试要结束时说, ”杨小姐，你有问题要问我吗?“ 我鼓起了勇气，镇定地问，”你能不能告诉我, 你们卖什么的?“ 因為我当时完全不知道 一个五星级饭店的销售部要做什么.那是我第一次 走进一家五星级饭店.Around the same time, I was going through an audition--the first ever open audition by national television in China--with another thousand college girls.The producer told us they were looking for some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh face.与此同时, 我参加了 由中国国家电台举办的试听会 这是第一个向大众开放的试聼会 现场还有上千名的女大生.製作人告诉我们 他们在找甜美，单纯 和漂亮的新面孔.So when it was my turn, I stood up and said, ”Why [do] women's personalities on television always have to be beautiful, sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive? Why can't they have their own ideas and their own voice?“ 当轮到我的时候, 我起身问道, ”為什么在电视上的女人 一定要长得漂亮，甜美，单纯 还要配合度高? 為什么她们不能有自己的想法 说自己的话?“ I thought I kind of offended them.But actually, they were impressed by my words.And so I was in the second round of competition, and then the third and the fourth.After seven rounds of competition, I was the last one to survive it.So I was on a national television prime-time show.我想我一定得罪了评委。但是事实上，我的发言给他们留下了深刻的印象。接下来我进入了第二轮的选拔，然后是第三轮，第四轮。在经过七轮的选拔后，我胜出了。成为了一个国家电视台黄金时段节目的主持人。And believe it or not, that was the first show on Chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script.(Applause)And my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people.你也许不敢相信, 这个节目是中国第一个 允许主持人 表达他们自己的想法 他们不需要念之前写好的稿.（掌声）我当时每週的观众人数 达到200-300万.Well after a few years, I decided to go to the U.S.and Columbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career.几年后，我决定去美国哥伦比亚大学进修。之后我有了自己的传媒公司，这是在我刚毕业的时候想都不敢想的。So we do a lot of things.I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past.And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, ”Lan, you changed my life,“ and I feel proud of that.我和我的团队做了很多事情。在过去的这些年，我采访了上千人。有时候有年轻人走过来对我说：“杨澜，你改变了我的生活。”我也为此而自豪。But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country.I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games.I was representing the Shanghai Expo.I saw China embracing the world and vice versa.But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to? How are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of China, or at large, the world? 接下来我们一起见证了中国更多的变化。我参与了北京申奥，出席了上海世博会。我看到中国拥抱世界，世界接纳中国„„但是有时候我在想，当今的年轻人追求什么？他们是怎样的不同？他们怎样去改变未来的中国以至世界呢？

So today I want to talk about young people through the platform of social media.所以今天我想通过社交媒体的平台说说我们的年起人First of all, who are they? [What] do they look like? 首先，她们是谁？他们是怎么样的？Well this is a girl called Guo Meimei--20 years old, beautiful.She showed off her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the Chinese version of Twitter.And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross at the Chamber of Commerce.照片上的女孩叫郭美美 20岁，很漂亮.在她的微博上, 她炫耀了自己的名牌包, 衣服, 还有车 在她的微博上, 微博是中国版的Twitter.她还说自己是商会红十字会在商会的 一名经理。She didn't realize that she stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of Red Cross.她没有意识到自己触及到了民众最敏感的神经，引起了全国性的对红十字的质疑, 几乎成为网络上的一场骚乱.深深的打击了中国红十字会的公信力。The controversy was so heated that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.这场争论愈演愈烈，红十字不得不召开一场媒体招待会去澄清”郭美美事件,“ 该事件也因此被调查.So far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title--probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity.直到今天, 我们知道了是她自己捏造了这个头名，很可能她觉得和慈善机构有联系是一件很有面子的事情.All those expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend, who used to be a board member in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce.所有这些名贵的物品其实都是她男朋友送给她的，而她的男朋友曾经是红十字会的一名执行董事It's very complicated to explain.But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it.It is still boiling.It shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past.这个解释起来有点困难.但是无论如何，公众始终都不买账.事情还在.沸沸扬扬。它显示了民众对政府机构或是政府所支持的机构的不信任, And also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.而这些机构在过去都不够透明.这个事件也让我们看到了以微博为代表社会媒体所产生的巨大能量和影响.Microblog boomed in the year of 2010, with visitors doubled and time spent on it tripled.微博在2010年兴起,伴随着访问量的两倍增长以及民众浏览时间的三倍增长。Sina.com, a major news portal, alone has more than 140 million microbloggers.单是新浪网, 一个主要的新闻网站, 就有超过1.4亿的微博用户.On Tencent, 200 million.The most popular blogger--it's not me--it's a movie star, and she has more than 9.5 million followers, or fans.腾讯拥有两亿用户。（在中国）最有名的微博主——不是我——是一位电影明星，她拥有近九百五十万”粉丝“。About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old.接近80％的微博用户是 年轻人，三十岁以下。And because, as you know, the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government, social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit.But because you don't have many other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.大家都知道，因为传统媒体还在政府的强力控制之下，社交媒体提供了一个开放的平台进行了一些（民众观点的）分流。因为这样分流的渠道并不多，从这 个平台上爆发出的声音非常强，积极，甚至激烈。So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese youth even better.通过微博，我们可以更好的了解到中国的年轻一代。So how are they different? 他们是怎样的不同。First of all, most of them were born in the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy.首先，他们中的大多数都出生在八零九零年代，在独生子女的生育政策的大背景下长大。And because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women.That could pose a potential danger to the society, but who knows;we're in a globalized world, so they can look for girlfriends from other countries.因为一直以来的重男轻女而产生的选择性流产，现在（中国）的年轻男性的数量多过年轻女性三千万，这可以对一个社会产生潜在的威胁），但是谁知道呢，我们在一个全球化的时代，他们可能可以去其他国家找女朋友Most of them have fairly good education.The illiteracy rate in China among this generation is under one percent.In cities, 80 percent of kids go to college.But they are facing an aging China with a population above 65 years old coming up with seven-point-some percent this year, and about to be 15 percent by the year of 2030.And you know we have the tradition that younger generations support the elders financially, and taking care of them when they're sick.So it means young couples will have to support four parents who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.大多数人都拥有良好的教育。这一代中国人中的文盲率已经低于1％。在城市中，80％的孩子可以上大学，但他们将要面对的是一个，有接近7％的人口都是老年人的社会，这个数字在2030年会增长到15%。而且在中国，一直以来有赡养老人的传统，这意味着，一对年轻的夫妻将需要去赡养四个平均希望寿命在73岁的老人。

So making a living is not that easy for young people.College graduates are not in short supply.In urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 U.S.dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500.所以对于年轻人而言，生活并不是容易。本科毕业生也不在是紧缺资源。在城市中，本科生的月起薪通常是400美元（2500人民币），而公寓的平均月租金却是500美元。So what do they do? They have to share space--squeezed in very limited space to save money--and they call themselves ”tribe of ants.“ And for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.That ratio in America would only cost a couple five years to earn, but in China it's 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.所以他们的解决方式是合租——挤在有限的空间中以节省开支，他们叫自己”蚁族。“ 对于那些准备好结婚并希望购买一套公寓的中国年轻夫妇而言，他们发现他们必须要不间断的工作30到40年才可以负担得起一套公寓。对于同样的美国年轻夫妇而言，他们只需要五年时间。

Among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percent of them are young people.They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas.Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside, but they don't have the sense of belonging.在近两亿的涌入城市的农民工中，他们中的60％都是年轻人。他们发现自己被夹在了城市和农村中，大多数人不愿意回到农村，但他们在城市也找不到归属感。They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare.And they're more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation, tightening loans from banks, appreciation of the renminbi, or decline of demand from Europe or America for the products they produce.他们工作更长的时间却获得更少的薪水和社会福利。他们也更容易面临失业，受到通货膨胀，银行利率，人民币升值的影响，甚至美国和欧盟对于中国制造产品的抵制也会影响到他们。Last year, though, an appalling incident in a southern OEM manufacturing compound in China: 13 young workers in their late teens and early 20s committed suicide, just one by one like causing a contagious disease.But they died because of all different personal reasons.But this whole incident aroused a huge outcry from society about the isolation, both physical and mental, of these migrant workers.去年，一个骇人的事件发生在中国的一个富士康工厂，十三20出头的年轻的人连续自杀，一个接一个，像一场传染病。他们轻生的原因各有不同，但是这件事震惊了整个社会，唤起人们对工人们心理生理的孤立关注。

For those who do return back to the countryside, they find themselves very welcome locally, because with the knowledge, skills and networks they have learned in the cities, 对于那些回到农村的年轻人，他们发现自己在家乡很受欢迎，因为他们有知识技能和人际网，他们在城市学到了技能，with the assistance of the Internet, they're able to create more jobs, upgrade local agriculture and create new business in the less developed market.So for the past few years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.在互联网的帮助下，他们更有可能获得工作，提升农村的农业水平和发展新的商业机会。在过去的一些年中，一些沿海的城镇甚至出现了劳动力短缺。

These diagrams show a more general social background.The first one is the Engels coefficient, which explains that the cost of daily necessities has dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family income, to about 37-some percent.这些图片展现出整体的社会背景。第一张图片是恩格斯系数（食品支出占总消费支出的比例），可以看到在过去的十年中，食物和生活必需品在家庭消费中的比例有所下降（37％），But then in the last two years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost.然后在过去的两年中，这项指数上升到39％，说明近两年中生活成本的攀升。The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4.Now it's 0.5--even worse than that in America--showing us the income inequality.基尼系数早已越过了危险的0.4，到达0.5——比美国还糟糕——体现出极大的贫富差距，所以我们才看到整个社会的失衡。And so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility.同时，我们也看到了整个社会对于它的缺乏灵活性感到沮丧，And also, the bitterness and even resentment towards the rich and the powerful is quite widespread.So any accusations of corruption or backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even unrest.同时，“仇富仇官心理在广泛蔓延，任何被发现的官商勾结都会引起社会的强烈反响甚至不稳定。

So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about.通过最热的微博，我们就可以看到年轻人在关注什么。Social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand.社会公正和政府的公信力是他们首要需求的For the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property.在过去的十年中，大量的城市化进程让我们见识了一系列的强拆事件，And it has aroused huge anger and frustration among our young generation.Sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.这引发了年轻一代的愤怒和不理解。有时候，被拆迁的住户以自杀和自焚的方式来抗议（强制拆迁行为）。So when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the Internet, people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.当这些事件越来越常在互联网上被揭露出来，人们呼吁政府去采取措施去防止这些悲剧。

So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court.好消息是，今年早些时候，人民代表大会通过了一项关于房屋征用和拆迁的新法规，将征用和拆迁的权利从当地政府移交到了法庭。Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the Internet.相同的，很多其他与公共安全相关的问题也在互联网上被热烈讨论。We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food.And guess what, we have faked beef.They have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like beef.我们听到有太多空气污染，水污染，有毒食品的报道。你甚至都想不到，我们还有假牛肉。人们用一种特殊的材料加入鸡肉和鱼肉中，然后以牛肉的价格进行出售。And then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop.So all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet.And fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.最近，人们对食用油也很担忧，大量的餐馆被发现在使用“地沟油“。所有这些事件引发了互联网上民众观点的大爆发。幸运的是，我们看到了政府正在更积极和更及时的对这些民众的质疑给予回应。

While young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they're a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life.一方面，年轻人越来越积极的参与到公共事务中；另一方面，他们也在寻找或者说迷失与个人生活的价值和定位。China is soon to pass the U.S.as the number one market for luxury brands--that's not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere.But you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 U.S.dollars.中国很快就要超过美国，成为世界上第一大奢侈品消费国——这还不包括中国人在国外的消费。但你知道吗，超过半数中国的奢侈品消费者的（年）收入都低于两千美元。They're not rich at all.They're taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity and social status.And this is a girl explicitly saying on a TV dating show that she would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle.But of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.他们其实并不富裕，他们用那些奢侈品牌的服装和包体现身份和社会地位。这是一位在电视节目上公然表明，自己宁愿在宝马车里哭也不坐在自行车后笑的年轻女孩。当然，我们也有更多的年轻人不管是在宝马还是在自行车上都能微笑。

So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called ”naked“ wedding, or ”naked" marriage.It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their commitment to true love.在接下来的一个图片中，你们能看到一种很流行的现象叫做“裸婚”，当然不是什么都不穿的而结婚，它指的是年轻的情侣没有房子，没有车，没有珠宝戒指，没有结婚宴而结为夫妇去践行他们对真爱的承诺。And also, people are doing good through social media.And the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogs for food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watching through microblogging.但同时，人们也在通过社交媒体做一些善事。这副图片里，一辆卡车满载着将被进行肉加工的500只无家可归的狗，被停在了高速路上整个国家的人都在通过微博去关注它们。People were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck.And after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued.人们捐出了钱，狗粮，主动志愿去停下那辆，在几个小时的谈判后，那500只狗终于得救了。And here also people are helping to find missing children.A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet.After thousands of resends in relay, the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.同时人们也帮助去寻找失踪的孩子们，一个父亲将儿子的照片贴上了网络，数十万人的关注下，孩子终于被找到了。我们在微博上见证了这家庭重逢的一幕。

So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years.Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment.“幸福（感）”是近两年中国的流行词汇。幸福感不仅仅与个人体验和价值观相关，更多的，它与环境息息相关。People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP? How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability? 人们在思考：我们是否要牺牲环境来提升GDP？我们要怎样进行社会和政治体制的改革来应对经济的发展，保持稳定性和可持续性发展？ And also, how capable is the system of self-correctness to keep more people content with all sorts of friction going on at the same time? I guess these are the questions people are going to answer.And our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.同时，这个系统的自我修正能力是否足够强大，是否能够让生活在其中的人民接受在前进过程中的各种压力和困难？我想这些都是中国人民需要回答的问题，而中国的年轻一代将在改变这个国家的过程中也改变自己。

Thank you very much.

第三篇：TED演讲原文和翻译~

< your body language shapes who you are >

So I want to start by offering you a free no-tech life hack, and all it requires of you is this: that you change your posture for two minutes.But before I give it away, I want to ask you to right now do a little audit of your body and what you're doing with your body.So how many of you are sort of making yourselves smaller? Maybe you're hunching, crossing your legs, maybe wrapping your ankles.Sometimes we hold onto our arms like this.Sometimes we spread out.(Laughter)I see you.(Laughter)So I want you to pay attention to what you're doing right now.We're going to come back to that in a few minutes, and I'm hoping that if you learn to tweak this a little bit, it could significantly change the way your life unfolds.0:58 So, we're really fascinated with body language, and we're particularly interested in other people's body language.You know, we're interested in, like, you know —(Laughter)— an awkward interaction, or a smile, or a contemptuous glance, or maybe a very awkward wink, or maybe even something like a handshake.1:22 Narrator: Here they are arriving at Number 10, and look at this lucky policeman gets to shake hands with the President of the United States.Oh, and here comes the Prime Minister of the — ? No.(Laughter)(Applause)(Laughter)(Applause)1:37 Amy Cuddy: So a handshake, or the lack of a handshake, can have us talking for weeks and weeks and weeks.Even the BBC and The New York Times.So obviously when we think about nonverbal behavior, or body language--but we call it nonverbals as social scientists--it's language, so we think about communication.When we think about communication, we think about interactions.So what is your body language communicating to me? What's mine communicating to you? 2:04 And there's a lot of reason to believe that this is a valid way to look at this.So social scientists have spent a lot of time looking at the effects of our body language, or other people's body language, on judgments.And we make sweeping judgments and inferences from body language.And those judgments can predict really meaningful life outcomes like who we hire or promote, who we ask out on a date.For example, Nalini Ambady, a researcher at Tufts University, shows that when people watch 30-second soundless clips of real physician-patient interactions, their judgments of the physician's niceness predict whether or not that physician will be sued.So it doesn't have to do so much with whether or not that physician was incompetent, but do we like that person and how they interacted? Even more dramatic, Alex Todorov at Princeton has shown us that judgments of political candidates' faces in just one second predict 70 percent of U.S.Senate and gubernatorial race outcomes, and even, let's go digital, emoticons used well in online negotiations can lead to you claim more value from that negotiation.If you use them poorly, bad idea.Right? So when we think of nonverbals, we think of how we judge others, how they judge us and what the outcomes are.We tend to forget, though, the other audience that's influenced by our nonverbals, and that's ourselves.3:31 We are also influenced by our nonverbals, our thoughts and our feelings and our physiology.So what nonverbals am I talking about? I'm a social psychologist.I study prejudice, and I teach at a competitive business school, so it was inevitable that I would become interested in power dynamics.I became especially interested in nonverbal expressions of power and dominance.3:56 And what are nonverbal expressions of power and dominance? Well, this is what they are.So in the animal kingdom, they are about expanding.So you make yourself big, you stretch out, you take up space, you're basically opening up.It's about opening up.And this is true across the animal kingdom.It's not just limited to primates.And humans do the same thing.(Laughter)So they do this both when they have power sort of chronically, and also when they're feeling powerful in the moment.And this one is especially interesting because it really shows us how universal and old these expressions of power are.This expression, which is known as pride, Jessica Tracy has studied.She shows that people who are born with sight and people who are congenitally blind do this when they win at a physical competition.So when they cross the finish line and they've won, it doesn't matter if they've never seen anyone do it.They do this.So the arms up in the V, the chin is slightly lifted.What do we do when we feel powerless? We do exactly the opposite.We close up.We wrap ourselves up.We make ourselves small.We don't want to bump into the person next to us.So again, both animals and humans do the same thing.And this is what happens when you put together high and low power.So what we tend to do when it comes to power is that we complement the other's nonverbals.So if someone is being really powerful with us, we tend to make ourselves smaller.We don't mirror them.We do the opposite of them.5:24 So I'm watching this behavior in the classroom, and what do I notice? I notice that MBA students really exhibit the full range of power nonverbals.So you have people who are like caricatures of alphas, really coming into the room, they get right into the middle of the room before class even starts, like they really want to occupy space.When they sit down, they're sort of spread out.They raise their hands like this.You have other people who are virtually collapsing when they come in.As soon they come in, you see it.You see it on their faces and their bodies, and they sit in their chair and they make themselves tiny, and they go like this when they raise their hand.I notice a couple of things about this.One, you're not going to be surprised.It seems to be related to gender.So women are much more likely to do this kind of thing than men.Women feel chronically less powerful than men, so this is not surprising.But the other thing I noticed is that it also seemed to be related to the extent to which the students were participating, and how well they were participating.And this is really important in the MBA classroom, because participation counts for half the grade.6:33 So business schools have been struggling with this gender grade gap.You get these equally qualified women and men coming in and then you get these differences in grades, and it seems to be partly attributable to participation.So I started to wonder, you know, okay, so you have these people coming in like this, and they're participating.Is it possible that we could get people to fake it and would it lead them to participate more? 6:57 So my main collaborator Dana Carney, who's at Berkeley, and I really wanted to know, can you fake it till you make it? Like, can you do this just for a little while and actually experience a behavioral outcome that makes you seem more powerful? So we know that our nonverbals govern how other people think and feel about us.There's a lot of evidence.But our question really was, do our nonverbals govern how we think and feel about ourselves? 7:24 There's some evidence that they do.So, for example, we smile when we feel happy, but also, when we're forced to smile by holding a pen in our teeth like this, it makes us feel happy.So it goes both ways.When it comes to power, it also goes both ways.So when you feel powerful, you're more likely to do this, but it's also possible that when you pretend to be powerful, you are more likely to actually feel powerful.7:57 So the second question really was, you know, so we know that our minds change our bodies, but is it also true that our bodies change our minds? And when I say minds, in the case of the powerful, what am I talking about? So I'm talking about thoughts and feelings and the sort of physiological things that make up our thoughts and feelings, and in my case, that's hormones.I look at hormones.So what do the minds of the powerful versus the powerless look like? So powerful people tend to be, not surprisingly, more assertive and more confident, more optimistic.They actually feel that they're going to win even at games of chance.They also tend to be able to think more abstractly.So there are a lot of differences.They take more risks.There are a lot of differences between powerful and powerless people.Physiologically, there also are differences on two key hormones: testosterone, which is the dominance hormone, and cortisol, which is the stress hormone.So what we find is that high-power alpha males in primate hierarchies have high testosterone and low cortisol, and powerful and effective leaders also have high testosterone and low cortisol.So what does that mean? When you think about power, people tended to think only about testosterone, because that was about dominance.But really, power is also about how you react to stress.So do you want the high-power leader that's dominant, high on testosterone, but really stress reactive? Probably not, right? You want the person who's powerful and assertive and dominant, but not very stress reactive, the person who's laid back.9:37 So we know that in primate hierarchies, if an alpha needs to take over, if an individual needs to take over an alpha role sort of suddenly, within a few days, that individual's testosterone has gone up significantly and his cortisol has dropped significantly.So we have this evidence, both that the body can shape the mind, at least at the facial level, and also that role changes can shape the mind.So what happens, okay, you take a role change, what happens if you do that at a really minimal level, like this tiny manipulation, this tiny intervention? “For two minutes,” you say, “I want you to stand like this, and it's going to make you feel more powerful.” 10:19 So this is what we did.We decided to bring people into the lab and run a little experiment, and these people adopted, for two minutes, either high-power poses or low-power poses, and I'm just going to show you five of the poses, although they took on only two.So here's one.A couple more.This one has been dubbed the “Wonder Woman” by the media.Here are a couple more.So you can be standing or you can be sitting.And here are the low-power poses.So you're folding up, you're making yourself small.This one is very low-power.When you're touching your neck, you're really protecting yourself.So this is what happens.They come in, they spit into a vial, we for two minutes say, “You need to do this or this.” They don't look at pictures of the poses.We don't want to prime them with a concept of power.We want them to be feeling power, right? So two minutes they do this.We then ask them, “How powerful do you feel?” on a series of items, and then we give them an opportunity to gamble, and then we take another saliva sample.That's it.That's the whole experiment.11:28 So this is what we find.Risk tolerance, which is the gambling, what we find is that when you're in the high-power pose condition, 86 percent of you will gamble.When you're in the low-power pose condition, only 60 percent, and that's a pretty whopping significant difference.Here's what we find on testosterone.From their baseline when they come in, high-power people experience about a 20-percent increase, and low-power people experience about a 10-percent decrease.So again, two minutes, and you get these changes.Here's what you get on cortisol.High-power people experience about a 25-percent decrease, and the low-power people experience about a 15-percent increase.So two minutes lead to these hormonal changes that configure your brain to basically be either assertive, confident and comfortable, or really stress-reactive, and, you know, feeling sort of shut down.And we've all had the feeling, right? So it seems that our nonverbals do govern how we think and feel about ourselves, so it's not just others, but it's also ourselves.Also, our bodies change our minds.12:36 But the next question, of course, is can power posing for a few minutes really change your life in meaningful ways? So this is in the lab.It's this little task, you know, it's just a couple of minutes.Where can you actually apply this? Which we cared about, of course.And so we think it's really, what matters, I mean, where you want to use this is evaluative situations like social threat situations.Where are you being evaluated, either by your friends? Like for teenagers it's at the lunchroom table.It could be, you know, for some people it's speaking at a school board meeting.It might be giving a pitch or giving a talk like this or doing a job interview.We decided that the one that most people could relate to because most people had been through was the job interview.13:20 So we published these findings, and the media are all over it, and they say, Okay, so this is what you do when you go in for the job interview, right?(Laughter)You know, so we were of course horrified, and said, Oh my God, no, no, no, that's not what we meant at all.For numerous reasons, no, no, no, don't do that.Again, this is not about you talking to other people.It's you talking to yourself.What do you do before you go into a job interview? You do this.Right? You're sitting down.You're looking at your iPhone--or your Android, not trying to leave anyone out.You are, you know, you're looking at your notes, you're hunching up, making yourself small, when really what you should be doing maybe is this, like, in the bathroom, right? Do that.Find two minutes.So that's what we want to test.Okay? So we bring people into a lab, and they do either high-or low-power poses again, they go through a very stressful job interview.It's five minutes long.They are being recorded.They're being judged also, and the judges are trained to give no nonverbal feedback, so they look like this.Like, imagine this is the person interviewing you.So for five minutes, nothing, and this is worse than being heckled.People hate this.It's what Marianne LaFrance calls “standing in social quicksand.” So this really spikes your cortisol.So this is the job interview we put them through, because we really wanted to see what happened.We then have these coders look at these tapes, four of them.They're blind to the hypothesis.They're blind to the conditions.They have no idea who's been posing in what pose, and they end up looking at these sets of tapes, and they say, “Oh, we want to hire these people,”--all the high-power posers--“we don't want to hire these people.We also evaluate these people much more positively overall.” But what's driving it? It's not about the content of the speech.It's about the presence that they're bringing to the speech.We also, because we rate them on all these variables related to competence, like, how well-structured is the speech? How good is it? What are their qualifications? No effect on those things.This is what's affected.These kinds of things.People are bringing their true selves, basically.They're bringing themselves.They bring their ideas, but as themselves, with no, you know, residue over them.So this is what's driving the effect, or mediating the effect.15:35 So when I tell people about this, that our bodies change our minds and our minds can change our behavior, and our behavior can change our outcomes, they say to me, “I don't--It feels fake.” Right? So I said, fake it till you make it.I don't--It's not me.I don't want to get there and then still feel like a fraud.I don't want to feel like an impostor.I don't want to get there only to feel like I'm not supposed to be here.And that really resonated with me, because I want to tell you a little story about being an impostor and feeling like I'm not supposed to be here.16:06 When I was 19, I was in a really bad car accident.I was thrown out of a car, rolled several times.I was thrown from the car.And I woke up in a head injury rehab ward, and I had been withdrawn from college, and I learned that my I.Q.had dropped by two standard deviations, which was very traumatic.I knew my I.Q.because I had identified with being smart, and I had been called gifted as a child.So I'm taken out of college, I keep trying to go back.They say, “You're not going to finish college.Just, you know, there are other things for you to do, but that's not going to work out for you.” So I really struggled with this, and I have to say, having your identity taken from you, your core identity, and for me it was being smart, having that taken from you, there's nothing that leaves you feeling more powerless than that.So I felt entirely powerless.I worked and worked and worked, and I got lucky, and worked, and got lucky, and worked.17:01 Eventually I graduated from college.It took me four years longer than my peers, and I convinced someone, my angel advisor, Susan Fiske, to take me on, and so I ended up at Princeton, and I was like, I am not supposed to be here.I am an impostor.And the night before my first-year talk, and the first-year talk at Princeton is a 20-minute talk to 20 people.That's it.I was so afraid of being found out the next day that I called her and said, “I'm quitting.” She was like, “You are not quitting, because I took a gamble on you, and you're staying.You're going to stay, and this is what you're going to do.You are going to fake it.You're going to do every talk that you ever get asked to do.You're just going to do it and do it and do it, even if you're terrified and just paralyzed and having an out-of-body experience, until you have this moment where you say, 'Oh my gosh, I'm doing it.Like, I have become this.I am actually doing this.'” So that's what I did.Five years in grad school, a few years, you know, I'm at Northwestern, I moved to Harvard, I'm at Harvard, I'm not really thinking about it anymore, but for a long time I had been thinking, “Not supposed to be here.Not supposed to be here.” 18:07 So at the end of my first year at Harvard, a student who had not talked in class the entire semester, who I had said, “Look, you've gotta participate or else you're going to fail,” came into my office.I really didn't know her at all.And she said, she came in totally defeated, and she said, “I'm not supposed to be here.” And that was the moment for me.Because two things happened.One was that I realized, oh my gosh, I don't feel like that anymore.You know.I don't feel that anymore, but she does, and I get that feeling.And the second was, she is supposed to be here!Like, she can fake it, she can become it.So I was like, “Yes, you are!You are supposed to be here!And tomorrow you're going to fake it, you're going to make yourself powerful, and, you know, you're gonna — ”(Applause)(Applause)“And you're going to go into the classroom, and you are going to give the best comment ever.” You know? And she gave the best comment ever, and people turned around and they were like, oh my God, I didn't even notice her sitting there, you know?(Laughter)19:13 She comes back to me months later, and I realized that she had not just faked it till she made it, she had actually faked it till she became it.So she had changed.And so I want to say to you, don't fake it till you make it.Fake it till you become it.You know? It's not — Do it enough until you actually become it and internalize.19:33 The last thing I'm going to leave you with is this.Tiny tweaks can lead to big changes.So this is two minutes.Two minutes, two minutes, two minutes.Before you go into the next stressful evaluative situation, for two minutes, try doing this, in the elevator, in a bathroom stall, at your desk behind closed doors.That's what you want to do.Configure your brain to cope the best in that situation.Get your testosterone up.Get your cortisol down.Don't leave that situation feeling like, oh, I didn't show them who I am.Leave that situation feeling like, oh, I really feel like I got to say who I am and show who I am.20:09 So I want to ask you first, you know, both to try power posing, and also I want to ask you to share the science, because this is simple.I don't have ego involved in this.(Laughter)Give it away.Share it with people, because the people who can use it the most are the ones with no resources and no technology and no status and no power.Give it to them because they can do it in private.They need their bodies, privacy and two minutes, and it can significantly change the outcomes of their life.Thank you.(Applause)(Applause)

我的身体又是在向你传达什么? 2:04 有很多理由让我们相信这些是有效的 社会科学家花了很多时间 求证肢体语言的效果 或其它人的身体语言在判断方面的效应 而我们环视身体语言中的讯息做决定和推论 这些结论可以预测生活中很有意义的结果 像是我们雇用谁或给谁升职，邀请谁出去约会 举例而言，Tufts大学的研究员，Nalini Ambady表示 人们观赏一部医生和患者互动的 30秒无声影片 他们对该医生的和善观感 可用来预测该复健师是否会被告上法庭 跟这个医生能否胜任工作没有太大关系 重点是我们喜不喜欢他 和他们是如何与人互动的? 进一步来说，普林斯顿的Alex Todorov 表示 我们对政治人物脸部的喜好判断 大概可用来对美国参议院和美国州长的 竞选结果做70%的预测 甚至就网络上 在线聊天时使用的表情符号 可以帮助你从交谈中得到更多信息 所以你千万别弄巧成拙，对吧? 当我们提起肢体语言，我们就想到我们如何论断别人 别人如何论断我们以及后果会是什么 我们往往忘记这点，受到肢体动作所影响的那群观众 就是我们自己 3:31 我们也往往受自己的肢体动作，想法 感觉和心理所影响 所以究竟我说的是怎样的非语言? 我是一位社会心理学家，我研究偏见 我在一所极具竞争力的商业学院上课 因此无可避免地对权力动力学感到着迷 特别是在非语言表达 对权力和支配的领域 3:56 权力和支配的非语言表达究竟是什么? 嗯，让我细细道来 在动物王国里，它们和扩张有关 所以你尽可能的让自己变大，你向外伸展 占满空间，基本上就是展开 关于展开，我说真的 透视动物世界，这不仅局限于灵长类 人类也干同样的事(笑声)不论是他们长期掌权或是在某个时间点感到权力高涨 他们都这么做 特别有趣的原因是 它让我们明白权力的展现从来是如此地一致，不管古今世界 这种展现，被认为是一种荣耀 Jessica Tracy研究表示 视力良好无碍 和先天视障的人 在赢得比赛时都做了同样的事 当他们跨过终点线赢得比赛之际 无论能否看的见 他们都做这样的动作 双臂呈V字型朝上，下巴微微抬起 那我们感到无助的时候呢?我们的行为正相反 我们封闭起来。我们把自己蜷起来 让自己变得小一点，最好别碰到别人 这再一次证明，人类和动物都做同样的事 这就是当你有力量和没力量时的行为 所以当力量来临时 我们会迎合别人的非语言 若有人之于我们相对权重时 我们倾向把自己变得较小，不会模仿他们 我们做和他们正相反的事情 5:24 当我在课堂上观察这么现象时 你猜我发现什么?我发现MBA的学生 真的很会就充分利用肢体语言 你会看到有些人像是统治者 走进房间，课程开始之前一屁股坐在正中间 好像他们真的很想占据整个教室似的 当他们坐下的时候，身体会展开 像这样举手 有些人则不然 他们一走进来你就会发现 从他们的脸和身体你会发现 他们坐在椅子上的时候把自己变得很萎靡 然后举手的时候是这种姿势 我观察到很多事情 其中一件，不令人惊讶 就是跟性别差异有关 女人比男人更容易出现这种状况 女人一般比较容易比男人感到无力 这并不太令人意外。然而我发现的另一件事是 这似乎也跟 学生参与的程度高低有关 就MBA的课来说这真的非常重要 因为课堂参与程度要占成绩的一半 6:33 所以商学院一直以来都为此伤脑筋 入学的时候男生女生是不分轩轾的 可是成绩出来却有这些性别差异 而看起来却有一部分原因和参与度有关 所以我开始思索，好吧 这群人一开始进来是这样，他们参与其中 那有没有可能让大家来假装 让他们更加参与进来? 6:57 我在Berkeley的主要合作研究伙伴，Dana Carney 我很想知道，你能假装直到你成功吗？ 譬如说，只做一下下然后就体验到一个 让你感到更加充满力量的结果 所以得知非语言如何掌控他人 对我们的想法和感受。有很多证据可以证明 但我们的问题是，我们非语言的部分 是否真的掌控我们对自己的想法和感受? 7:24 这里确实有些证据可以表明 举例来说，当我们高兴的时候我们会笑 但同样地，当我们含着一只笔练习笑容的时候 我们也会感到开心 这说明这是相互的。说到力量的时候 亦是如此。所以当我们感到充满力量的时候 你更加可能会这样做，但你也可能 假装自己很有力量 然后真的感到力量强大 7:57 那第二个问题就是，你看 我们知道心理状态会影响我们的身体 那身体是否能影响心理呢? 这里所说的心理充满力量 究竟指的是什么? 我指的是想法和感觉 和可以组成我们想法和感受的实际事物 我这里是指荷尔蒙。我指的是这个 充满力量和没有力量的心智 是什么样的呢? 毫不令人意外，心理坚强的人往往 比较果断，自信，且乐观 就连在赌注里也觉得他们会赢 他们也倾向于能够抽象地思考 所以这其中有很大区别。他们更敢于冒险 充满力量与否的心智二者存有许多不同 生理上两个关键的贺尔蒙 睾丸酮，是一种支配荷尔蒙 可的松，是一种压力荷尔蒙 我们发现 灵长类的雄性首领 有高浓度的睪丸酮和低浓度的可的松 相同情形也在 强而有力的领导人身上可见 这表示什么? 当你想到力量 人们往往只想到睪丸酮 因为它代表支配统治 但力量其实是在于你如何应对压力 所以你会想要一个 有着很高浓度的睪丸酮但同时又高度紧张的领导吗? 大概不会是吧?你会希望那个人 是充满力量，肯定果断且知道如何支配 但不是非常紧张，或是懒洋洋的 9:37 灵长类动物的金字塔里 如果一个首领想要掌控这个种群 或取代原先的首领 几天之内，那一方体内的睪丸酮会大大地上升 而其可的松会剧烈地下降 身体影响心理之例，由此可见一斑 至少就表面而言是如此 同时角色的转换也会影响心智 所以，如果你改变角色 就一个小改变 像这样一个小小的操作，这样一个小小的干预? “持续两分钟”你说，“我要你们这样站着，它会让你感到更加充满力量” 10:19 我们是这样做的 我们决定将人们带进实验室，做一个小实验 这些人将维持有力或无力的姿势两分钟 然后我就会告诉你 这五种姿势，虽然他们只做了两种 这是其一 看看这些 这个被媒体取名为 “神力女超人” 还有这些 或站或坐 这些是无力的姿势 你双手交叉，试着让自己变小一点 这是非常无力的一张 当你在摸你的脖子 你其实在保护自己 实际的状况是，他们进来 取出唾液 维持一个姿势达两分钟 他们不会看到姿势的照片，因为我们不想要影响他们 我们希望他们自己感觉到力量 不是吗?所以他们做了整整两分钟 我们关于一些事物问:“现在你觉得自己多有力量?” 受试者接着会有一个博奕的机会 接着再取得唾液范本 这就是整个实验 11:28 我们发现到风险承担能力，也就是在赌博时，当处于强有力的姿势的时 86%的人会选择赌博 相对处于一个较无力的姿势时 只有60%的人，这真是很令人惊讶的差异 就睪丸酮而言我们发现 这些人进来的那一刻起，有力量的那些人 会有20%的提高 无力的人则下降10% 所以，再次地，当你有这些改变 有力的人 可的松下降25%，而无力的人可的松则上升15% 二分钟可以让这些荷尔蒙改变 使你的脑袋变得 果断，自信和自在 或高度紧张以及感到与世隔绝 我们都曾有过这些体验对吗? 看来非语言确实掌控 我们对自己的想法和感受 不只是别人，更是我们自己 同时，我们的身体可以改变我们的心理 12:36 但下一个问题，当然，就是 维持数分钟的姿势 是否真能引导一个更有意义的人生呢? 刚刚都只是在实验室哩，一个小实验，你知道的 只有几分钟。你要怎么实现这一切呢? 落实在我们关心的地方呢? 我们关心的其实是，我是说 你在那里可以用这些技巧去评估时势 像是社交威胁的情形。譬如说你被人打量时? 或者是青少年吃午餐的时候 你知道，对有些人来说就好像在开 学校的董事会。有时候是一个小演讲 有时是像这种讲演 或是工作面试时 我们后来决定用一个最多人能做比较的 因为大部分人都曾经 面试工作过 13:20 我们将这些发现发表出来，接着媒体就大量曝光 说，好，所以你去面试时，你得这样做，对吧?(笑声)我们当然大吃一惊，表示 我的天啊，不不不，我们不是这个意思 不管什么原因，不不，千万别这么做 这和你跟别人交谈无关 这是你在和你自己交谈 你在面试工作之前会怎么做?你会这样 对吧?你会做下来，你盯着自己的爱疯 或者安卓，转移自己的视线 你看着自己的笔记 你把自己蜷缩起来，试着让自己变得小一点 你真正需要做的应该是 找个浴室，然后这样，花个两分钟 所以我们想做是这个 把人带进实验室 他们再次保持有力或无力姿势 接着进行一个高度压力的面试 为时五分钟。所有都会被记录下来 同时也会被评论，而这些考官都接受过训练 不会给予任何非语言的反馈 所以他们看起来就像这样，像图上所示 想象一下，这个人正在面试你 整整五分钟，什么都没有，这比刁难诘问更难受 大家都不喜欢这种方式。这就是 Marianne LaFrance 所谓的 “陷入社交流沙中” 这可以大大激发你的可的松 我们给予受试者这样的面试 因为我们真的想看看会有什么样的结果 接着我们得出下列四种结果 受试者不知假设前提和状况下 没有人知道谁摆什么样的姿势 接着他们观看这些带子 然后他们说，“噢，我们想要录用这些人”--那些摆强有力姿势的人--“这些人我们不想录用” 我们也评量这群人整体而言更正面 但背后的原因是什么?这跟演讲的内容无关 而是他们在演讲中带出来的存在感 同时，我们也就这些关于能力之变动因素评价他们 像是演讲的整体架构怎样? 它有多棒?讲员的证照学历? 这些全都无关。有影响的是 这些事。基本上人们表达真实的自己 就他们自己 他们的想法，当他们心里 没有芥蒂 这就是被后真实的力量，或者可以说是计划的结果 15:35 所以当我告诉人们 我们的身体会改变心理，心理会改变行为 而行为会改变结果，他们跟我说 “我不这么觉得--听起来好像是假的” 对吗? 我就说，你就假装一直到你达成目的为止。不是我啦 我不想要到达到那个目标后仍然感觉像是一个骗局 我不想要成为一个骗子 我一点也不想达到那个目标才发觉我不应该如此 我真是有感而发的 这里跟大家分享一个小故事 关于成为一个骗子然后感到不应该在这里的故事 16:06 在我19岁的时候，发生了一场很严重的车祸 我整个人飞出车外，滚了好几翻 我是弹出车外的，之后在休息室醒来以后发现头部重伤 我从大学里休学 别人告知我智商下降了2个标准差 情况非常非常糟糕 我知道我的智商应该是多少，因为我以前被人家认为是很聪明的那种 小时候大家都觉得我很有才华 当我离开大学时，我试着回去 他们说都告诉我说，“你没有办法毕业的。你知道，你还可以做很多其它的事阿，别往死胡同里钻了。” 我死命挣扎，我必须承认 当你的认同感被剥夺的时候，那个主要的身分认同 就我而言是我的智力被夺走了 再没有比这个更加无助的时候了 我感到完全的无助，我拼命地疯狂地努力 幸运眷顾，努力，幸运眷顾，再努力。17:01 最终我从学校毕业了。我比同侪多花了四年的时间 然后说服我的恩师，Susan Fiske 让我进去，所以我最后进入了普林斯顿 我当时觉得，我不应该在这里 我是个骗子 在我第一年演讲的那个晚上，普林斯顿第一年的演讲 大约是对20个人做20分钟的演讲。就这样 我当时如此害怕隔天被拆穿 所以我打给她说，“我不干了。” 她说:“你不可以不干，因为我赌在你身上了，你得留下。你会留下，你将会留下来了。你要骗过所有人。你被要求的每个演讲你都得照办 你得一直讲一直讲 即使你怕死了，脚瘫了 灵魂出窍了，直到你发现你在说 ”噢，我的天啊，我正在做这件事 我已经成为它的一部分了，我正在做它。“ 这就是说所做的，硕士的五年 这些年，我在Northwestern 我后来去了哈佛，我在哈佛，我没有在想到它 但之前有很长一段时间我都在想这件事 ”不应该在这。不应该在这。“ 18:07 所以哈佛第一年结束 我对整个学期在课堂上都没有说话的一个学生说: 你得参与融入否则你不会过这一科的 来我的办公室吧。其实我压根就不认识她。她说:她很挫败地进来了，她说 ”我不应该在这里的。“ 就在此刻，两件事发生了 我突然明白 天啊，我再也没有这种感觉了。你知道吗。我再也不会有那种感觉，但她有，我能体会到她的感受。第二个想法是，她应该在这里!她可以假装，一直到她成功为止。所以我跟她说，”你当然应该!你应该在这里!“ 明天起你就假装 你要让自己充满力量，你要知道 你将会---”(掌声)(掌声)“你要走进教室 你会发表最棒的评论。” 你知道吗?她就真的发表了最成功的评论 大家都回过神来，他们就好像 喔我的天啊，我竟没有注意到她坐在那里，你知道吗?(笑声)19:13 几个月后她来找我，我才明白 她不仅只是假装到她成功为止 她已经融会贯通了 整个人脱胎换骨 我想对大家说，不要仅为了成功而假装 要把它溶到你骨子里去。知道吗? 持续地做直到它内化到你的骨髓里 19:33 最后与大家分享的是 小小的调整可以有大大的改变 就二分钟 二分钟，二分钟，二分钟 在你进行下一场紧张的评估之前 拿出二分钟，尝试做这个，电梯里 浴室间，房门关起在你的桌子前面 你就这么做，设置你的脑袋 以发挥最大效益 提升你的睪丸铜，降低你的可的松 千万别留下，噢，我没把最好的表现出来那种遗憾 而是留下，噢，我真想 让他们知道，让他们看见，我是个怎样的人 20:09 在这里我想要求大家，你知道的 尝试这有力的姿势 同时也想请求各位 把这项科学分享出去，因为它很简单 我可不是自尊心的问题喔(笑声)放开它。和人分享 因为最经常可以使用它的人会是那些 没有资源和技术的一群人 没有社会地位和权势。把这个传达给他们 好让他们可以私下这样做 他们会需要他们的身体，隐私和那二分钟 然后这会大大地改变他们生活的结果 谢谢(掌声)(掌声)

《how great leader inspire action》

How do you explain when things don't go as we assume? Or better, how do you explain when others are able to achieve things that seem to defy all of the assumptions? For example: Why is Apple so innovative? Year after year, after year, after year, they're more innovative than all their competition.And yet, they're just a computer company.They're just like everyone else.They have the same access to the same talent, the same agencies, the same consultants, the same media.Then why is it that they seem to have something different? Why is it that Martin Luther King led the Civil Rights Movement? He wasn't the only man who suffered in a pre-civil rights America, and he certainly wasn't the only great orator of the day.Why him? And why is it that the Wright brothers were able to figure out controlled, powered man flight when there were certainly other teams who were better qualified, better funded...and they didn't achieve powered man flight, and the Wright brothers beat them to it.There's something else at play here.1:17 About three and a half years ago I made a discovery.And this discovery profoundly changed my view on how I thought the world worked, and it even profoundly changed the way in which I operate in it.As it turns out, there's a pattern.As it turns out, all the great and inspiring leaders and organizations in the world--whether it's Apple or Martin Luther King or the Wright brothers--they all think, act and communicate the exact same way.And it's the complete opposite to everyone else.All I did was codify it, and it's probably the world's simplest idea.I call it the golden circle.2:07 Why? How? What? This little idea explains why some organizations and some leaders are able to inspire where others aren't.Let me define the terms really quickly.Every single person, every single organization on the planet knows what they do, 100 percent.Some know how they do it, whether you call it your differentiated value proposition or your proprietary process or your USP.But very, very few people or organizations know why they do what they do.And by “why” I don't mean “to make a profit.” That's a result.It's always a result.By “why,” I mean: What's your purpose? What's your cause? What's your belief? Why does your organization exist? Why do you get out of bed in the morning? And why should anyone care? Well, as a result, the way we think, the way we act, the way we communicate is from the outside in.It's obvious.We go from the clearest thing to the fuzziest thing.But the inspired leaders and the inspired organizations--regardless of their size, regardless of their industry--all think, act and communicate from the inside out.3:13 Let me give you an example.I use Apple because they're easy to understand and everybody gets it.If Apple were like everyone else, a marketing message from them might sound like this: “We make great computers.They're beautifully designed, simple to use and user friendly.Want to buy one?” “Meh.” And that's how most of us communicate.That's how most marketing is done, that's how most sales is done and that's how most of us communicate interpersonally.We say what we do, we say how we're different or how we're better and we expect some sort of a behavior, a purchase, a vote, something like that.Here's our new law firm: We have the best lawyers with the biggest clients, we always perform for our clients who do business with us.Here's our new car: It gets great gas mileage, it has leather seats, buy our car.But it's uninspiring.4:00 Here's how Apple actually communicates.“Everything we do, we believe in challenging the status quo.We believe in thinking differently.The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user friendly.We just happen to make great computers.Want to buy one?” Totally different right? You're ready to buy a computer from me.All I did was reverse the order of the information.What it proves to us is that people don't buy what you do;people buy why you do it.People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it.4:36 This explains why every single person in this room is perfectly comfortable buying a computer from Apple.But we're also perfectly comfortable buying an MP3 player from Apple, or a phone from Apple, or a DVR from Apple.But, as I said before, Apple's just a computer company.There's nothing that distinguishes them structurally from any of their competitors.Their competitors are all equally qualified to make all of these products.In fact, they tried.A few years ago, Gateway came out with flat screen TVs.They're eminently qualified to make flat screen TVs.They've been making flat screen monitors for years.Nobody bought one.Dell came out with MP3 players and PDAs, and they make great quality products, and they can make perfectly well-designed products--and nobody bought one.In fact, talking about it now, we can't even imagine buying an MP3 player from Dell.Why would you buy an MP3 player from a computer company? But we do it every day.People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it.The goal is not to do business with everybody who needs what you have.The goal is to do business with people who believe what you believe.Here's the best part: 5:49 None of what I'm telling you is my opinion.It's all grounded in the tenets of biology.Not psychology, biology.If you look at a cross-section of the human brain, looking from the top down, what you see is the human brain is actually broken into three major components that correlate perfectly with the golden circle.Our newest brain, our Homo sapien brain, our neocortex, corresponds with the “what” level.The neocortex is responsible for all of our rational and analytical thought and language.The middle two sections make up our limbic brains, and our limbic brains are responsible for all of our feelings, like trust and loyalty.It's also responsible for all human behavior, all decision-making, and it has no capacity for language.6:35 In other words, when we communicate from the outside in, yes, people can understand vast amounts of complicated information like features and benefits and facts and figures.It just doesn't drive behavior.When we can communicate from the inside out, we're talking directly to the part of the brain that controls behavior, and then we allow people to rationalize it with the tangible things we say and do.This is where gut decisions come from.You know, sometimes you can give somebody all the facts and figures, and they say, “I know what all the facts and details say, but it just doesn't feel right.” Why would we use that verb, it doesn't “feel” right? Because the part of the brain that controls decision-making doesn't control language.And the best we can muster up is, “I don't know.It just doesn't feel right.” Or sometimes you say you're leading with your heart, or you're leading with your soul.Well, I hate to break it to you, those aren't other body parts controlling your behavior.It's all happening here in your limbic brain, the part of the brain that controls decision-making and not language.7:29 But if you don't know why you do what you do, and people respond to why you do what you do, then how will you ever get people to vote for you, or buy something from you, or, more importantly, be loyal and want to be a part of what it is that you do.Again, the goal is not just to sell to people who need what you have;the goal is to sell to people who believe what you believe.The goal is not just to hire people who need a job;it's to hire people who believe what you believe.I always say that, you know, if you hire people just because they can do a job, they'll work for your money, but if you hire people who believe what you believe, they'll work for you with blood and sweat and tears.And nowhere else is there a better example of this than with the Wright brothers.8:14 Most people don't know about Samuel Pierpont Langley.And back in the early 20th century, the pursuit of powered man flight was like the dot com of the day.Everybody was trying it.And Samuel Pierpont Langley had, what we assume, to be the recipe for success.I mean, even now, you ask people, “Why did your product or why did your company fail?” and people always give you the same permutation of the same three things: under-capitalized, the wrong people, bad market conditions.It's always the same three things, so let's explore that.Samuel Pierpont Langley was given 50,000 dollars by the War Department to figure out this flying machine.Money was no problem.He held a seat at Harvard and worked at the Smithsonian and was extremely well-connected;he knew all the big minds of the day.He hired the best minds money could find and the market conditions were fantastic.The New York Times followed him around everywhere, and everyone was rooting for Langley.Then how come we've never heard of Samuel Pierpont Langley? 9:15 A few hundred miles away in Dayton Ohio, Orville and Wilbur Wright, they had none of what we consider to be the recipe for success.They had no money;they paid for their dream with the proceeds from their bicycle shop;not a single person on the Wright brothers' team had a college education, not even Orville or Wilbur;and The New York Times followed them around nowhere.The difference was, Orville and Wilbur were driven by a cause, by a purpose, by a belief.They believed that if they could figure out this flying machine, it'll change the course of the world.Samuel Pierpont Langley was different.He wanted to be rich, and he wanted to be famous.He was in pursuit of the result.He was in pursuit of the riches.And lo and behold, look what happened.The people who believed in the Wright brothers' dream worked with them with blood and sweat and tears.The others just worked for the paycheck.And they tell stories of how every time the Wright brothers went out, they would have to take five sets of parts, because that's how many times they would crash before they came in for supper.10:20 And, eventually, on December 17th, 1903, the Wright brothers took flight, and no one was there to even experience it.We found out about it a few days later.And further proof that Langley was motivated by the wrong thing: The day the Wright brothers took flight, he quit.He could have said, “That's an amazing discovery, guys, and I will improve upon your technology,” but he didn't.He wasn't first, he didn't get rich, he didn't get famous so he quit.10:50 People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it.And if you talk about what you believe, you will attract those who believe what you believe.But why is it important to attract those who believe what you believe? Something called the law of diffusion of innovation, and if you don't know the law, you definitely know the terminology.The first two and a half percent of our population are our innovators.The next 13 and a half percent of our population are our early adopters.The next 34 percent are your early majority, your late majority and your laggards.The only reason these people buy touch tone phones is because you can't buy rotary phones anymore.11:28(Laughter)11:30 We all sit at various places at various times on this scale, but what the law of diffusion of innovation tells us is that if you want mass-market success or mass-market acceptance of an idea, you cannot have it until you achieve this tipping point between 15 and 18 percent market penetration, and then the system tips.And I love asking businesses, “What's your conversion on new business?” And they love to tell you, “Oh, it's about 10 percent,” proudly.Well, you can trip over 10 percent of the customers.We all have about 10 percent who just “get it.” That's how we describe them, right? That's like that gut feeling, “Oh, they just get it.” The problem is: How do you find the ones that get it before you're doing business with them versus the ones who don't get it? So it's this here, this little gap that you have to close, as Jeffrey Moore calls it, “Crossing the Chasm”--because, you see, the early majority will not try something until someone else has tried it first.And these guys, the innovators and the early adopters, they're comfortable making those gut decisions.They're more comfortable making those intuitive decisions that are driven by what they believe about the world and not just what product is available.12:38 These are the people who stood in line for six hours to buy an iPhone when they first came out, when you could have just walked into the store the next week and bought one off the shelf.These are the people who spent 40,000 dollars on flat screen TVs when they first came out, even though the technology was substandard.And, by the way, they didn't do it because the technology was so great;they did it for themselves.It's because they wanted to be first.People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it and what you do simply proves what you believe.In fact, people will do the things that prove what they believe.The reason that person bought the iPhone in the first six hours, stood in line for six hours, was because of what they believed about the world, and how they wanted everybody to see them: They were first.People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it.13:27 So let me give you a famous example, a famous failure and a famous success of the law of diffusion of innovation.First, the famous failure.It's a commercial example.As we said before, a second ago, the recipe for success is money and the right people and the right market conditions, right? You should have success then.Look at TiVo.From the time TiVo came out about eight or nine years ago to this current day, they are the single highest-quality product on the market, hands down, there is no dispute.They were extremely well-funded.Market conditions were fantastic.I mean, we use TiVo as verb.I TiVo stuff on my piece of junk Time Warner DVR all the time.14:08 But TiVo's a commercial failure.They've never made money.And when they went IPO, their stock was at about 30 or 40 dollars and then plummeted, and it's never traded above 10.In fact, I don't think it's even traded above six, except for a couple of little spikes.Because you see, when TiVo launched their product they told us all what they had.They said, “We have a product that pauses live TV, skips commercials, rewinds live TV and memorizes your viewing habits without you even asking.” And the cynical majority said, “We don't believe you.We don't need it.We don't like it.You're scaring us.” What if they had said, “If you're the kind of person who likes to have total control over every aspect of your life, boy, do we have a product for you.It pauses live TV, skips commercials, memorizes your viewing habits, etc., etc.” People don't buy what you do;they buy why you do it, and what you do simply serves as the proof of what you believe.15:11 Now let me give you a successful example of the law of diffusion of innovation.In the summer of 1963, 250,000 people showed up on the mall in Washington to hear Dr.King speak.They sent out no invitations, and there was no website to check the date.How do you do that? Well, Dr.King wasn't the only man in America who was a great orator.He wasn't the only man in America who suffered in a pre-civil rights America.In fact, some of his ideas were bad.But he had a gift.He didn't go around telling people what needed to change in America.He went around and told people what he believed.“I believe, I believe, I believe,” he told people.And people who believed what he believed took his cause, and they made it their own, and they told people.And some of those people created structures to get the word out to even more people.And lo and behold, 250,000 people showed up on the right day at the right time to hear him speak.16:16 How many of them showed up for him? Zero.They showed up for themselves.It's what they believed about America that got them to travel in a bus for eight hours to stand in the sun in Washington in the middle of August.It's what they believed, and it wasn't about black versus white: 25 percent of the audience was white.Dr.King believed that there are two types of laws in this world: those that are made by a higher authority and those that are made by man.And not until all the laws that are made by man are consistent with the laws that are made by the higher authority will we live in a just world.It just so happened that the Civil Rights Movement was the perfect thing to help him bring his cause to life.We followed, not for him, but for ourselves.And, by the way, he gave the “I have a dream” speech, not the “I have a plan” speech.17:07(Laughter)17:11 Listen to politicians now, with their comprehensive 12-point plans.They're not inspiring anybody.Because there are leaders and there are those who lead.Leaders hold a position of power or authority, but those who lead inspire us.Whether they're individuals or organizations, we follow those who lead, not because we have to, but because we want to.We follow those who lead, not for them, but for ourselves.And it's those who start with “why” that have the ability to inspire those around them or find others who inspire them.17:51 Thank you very much.17:53(Applause)

当事情的发展出乎意料之外的时候，你怎么解释？ 换句话说，当别人似乎出乎意料地 取得成功的时候，你怎么解释？ 比如说，为什么苹果公司创新能力这么强？ 这么多年来，年复一年，他们比所有竞争对手都更加具有创新性。而其实他们只是一家电脑公司。他们跟其他公司没有任何分别，有同样的途径，接触到同样的人才，同样的代理商，顾问，和媒体。那为什么他们 就似乎有那么一点不同寻常呢？ 同样的，为什么是由马丁•路德•金 来领导民权运动？ 那个时候在美国，民权运动之前，不仅仅只有他一个人饱受歧视。他也决不是那个时代唯一的伟大演说家。为什么会是他？ 又为什么怀特兄弟 能够造出动力控制的载人飞机，跟他们相比，当时的其他团队似乎 更有能力，更有资金，他们却没能制造出载人飞机，怀特兄弟打败了他们。一定还有一些什么别的因素在起作用。1:17 大概三年半之前，我有了个新发现，这个发现完全改变了 我对这个世界如何运作的看法。甚至从根本上改变了 我的工作生活方式。那就是我发现了一种模式，我发现世界上所有伟大的令人振奋的领袖 和组织，无论是苹果公司、马丁•路德•金还是怀特兄弟，他们思考、行动、交流沟通的方式 都完全一样，但是跟所有其他人的方式 完全相反。我所做的仅仅是把它整理出来。这可能是世上 最简单的概念。我称它为黄金圆环。2:07 为什么？怎么做？是什么？ 这小小的模型就解释了 为什么一些组织和领导者 能够在别人不能的地方激发出灵感和潜力。我来尽快地解释一下这些术语。地球上的每个人，每个组织 都明白自己做的是什么，百分之百。其中一些知道该怎么做，你可以称之为是你的差异价值，或是你的独特工艺，或是你的独特卖点也好，怎么说都行。但是非常，非常少的人和组织 明白为什么做。这里的“为什么”和“为利润” 没有关系，利润只是一个结果，永远只能是一个结果。我说的“为什么” 指的是：你的目的是什么？ 你这样做的原因是什么？你怀着什么样的信念？ 你的机构为什么而存在？ 你每天早上是为什么而起床？ 为什么别人要在乎你？ 结果是，我们思考的方式，行动的方式，交流的方式都是由外向内的。很显然的，我们所采用的方式是从清晰开始，然后到模糊的东西。但是激励型领袖以及 组织机构，无论他们的规模大小，所在领域，他们思考，行动和交流的方式 都是从里向外的。3:13 举个例子吧。我举苹果公司是因为这个例子简单易懂，每个人都能理解。如果苹果公司跟其他公司一样，他们的市场营销信息就会是这个样子： “我们做最棒的电脑，设计精美，使用简单，界面友好。你想买一台吗？” 不怎么样吧。这就是我们大多数人的交流方式，也是大多数市场推广的方式，大部分销售所采用的方式，也是我们大部分人互相交流的方式。我们说我们的职业是干什么的，我们说我们是如何的与众不同，或者我们怎么比其他人更好，然后我们就期待着一些别人的反应，比如购买，比如投票，诸如此类。这是我们新开的的律师事务所，我们拥有最棒的律师和最大的客户，我们总是能满足客户的要求。这是我们的新车型，非常省油，真皮座椅。买一辆吧。但是这些推销词一点劲都没有。4:00 这是苹果公司实际上的沟通方式： “我们做的每一件事情，都是为了突破和创新。我们坚信应该以不同的方式思考。我们挑战现状的方式 是通过把我们的产品设计得十分精美，使用简单，和界面友好。我们只是在这个过程中做出了最棒的电脑。想买一台吗？” 感觉完全不一样，对吧？你已经准备从我这里买一台了。我所做的只是将传递信息的顺序颠倒一下而已。事实已经向我们证明，人们买的不是你做的产品，人们买的是你的信念和宗旨。人们买的不是你做的产品，人们买的是你的信念。4:36 这就解释了为什么 这里的每个人 从苹果公司买电脑时都觉得理所当然。但是我们从苹果公司 买MP3播放器，手机，或者数码摄像机时，也感觉很舒服。而其实，我刚才已经说过，苹果公司只是个电脑公司。没有什么能从结构上将苹果公司 同竞争对手区分开来。竞争对手和苹果公司有同样的能力制造所有这些产品。实际上，他们也尝试过。几年前，捷威（Gateway）公司推出了平板电视。他们制造平板电视的能力很强，因为他们做平板显示器已经很多年了。但是没有人买他们的平板电视。戴尔公司推出了MP3播放器和掌上电脑，他们产品的质量非常好，产品的设计也非常不错。但是也没有人买他们的这些产品。其实，说到这里，我们无法想象 会从戴尔公司买MP3播放器。你为什么会从一家电脑公司买MP3播放器呢？ 但是每天我们都这么做。人们买的不是你做的产品，人们买的是你的信念。做公司的目标不是要跟 所有需要你的产品的人做生意，而是跟 与你有着相同理念的人做生意。这是最精彩的部分。5:49 我说的这些没有一个是我自己的观点。这些观点都能从生物学里面找到根源。不是心理学，是生物学。当你俯视看大脑的横截面，你会发现人类大脑实际上分成 三个主要部分，而这三个主要部分和黄金圆环匹配得非常好。我们最新的脑部，管辖智力的脑部，或者说我们的大脑皮层，对应着“是什么” 这个圆环。大脑皮层负责我们所有的 理性和逻辑的思考 和语言功能。中间的两个部分是我们的两个边脑。边脑负责我们所有的情感，比如信任和忠诚，也负责所有的行为 和决策，但这部分没有语言功能。6:35 换句话说，当我们由外向内交流时，没错，人们可以理解大量的复杂信息，比如特征，优点，事实和图表。但不足以激发行动。当我们由内向外交流时，我们是在直接同控制行为的 那一部分大脑对话，然后我们由人们理性地思考 我们所说和做的事情。这就是那些发自内心的决定的来源。你知道，有时候你展示给一些人 所有的数据图表，他们会说“我知道这些数据和图表是什么意思，但就是感觉不对。” 为什么我们会用这个动词，“感觉” 不对？ 因为控制决策的那一部分大脑 并不支配语言，我们只好说 “我不知道为什么，就是感觉不对。” 或者有些时候，你说听从心的召唤，或者说听从灵魂。我不想把这些观念分解得太彻底，但心和灵魂都不是 控制行为的部分。所有这一切都发生在你的边脑，控制决策行为而非语言的边脑。7:29 如果你自己都不知道你为什么干你所做的事情，而别人要对你的动机作出反应，那么你怎么可能赢得大家 对你的支持，从你这里购买东西，或者，更重要的，对你忠诚 并且想成为你正在做的事情的一分子呢？ 再说一次，目标不仅仅是将你有的东西卖给需要它们的人； 而是将东西卖给跟你有共同信念的人。目标不仅仅是雇佣那些 需要一份工作的人； 目标是雇佣那些同你有共同信念的人。你知道吗，我总是说，如果你雇佣某人只是因为他能做这份工作，他们就只是为你开的工资而工作，但是如果你雇佣跟你有共同信念的人，他们会为你付出热血，汗水和泪水。这一点，没有比怀特兄弟的故事 更恰当的例子了。8:14 大多数人都没听说过塞缪尔·兰利这个人。20世纪初期，投入机动飞行器的热情就像当今的网站热，每个人都在做尝试。塞缪尔·兰利拥有所有大家认为是 成功的要素。我的意思是，即便是现在，你问别人 “为什么你的产品或者公司失败了呢？” 人们总是用同样的 三个东西以同样的排列顺序来回答你，缺乏资金，用人不善，形势不好。总是那三种理由，所以让我们来逐个分析一下。国防部给了塞缪尔·兰利 5万美金 作为研制飞行器的资金。所以说，资金不是问题。他在哈佛大学工作过，也在史密森尼学会工作过，人脉极其广泛。他认识当时最优秀的人才。因此，他雇佣了 用资金能吸引到的最优秀的人才。当时的市场形势相当有利。纽约时报对他做跟踪报道，每个人都支持他。但是为什么你们连听都没听说过他呢？ 9:15 与此同时，几百公里之外的俄亥俄州代顿市 有一对兄弟，奥维尔•莱特和维尔伯•莱特，他们俩没有任何我们认为的 成功的要素。他们没有钱。他们用自行车店的收入来追求他们的梦想。莱特兄弟的团队中没有一个人 上过大学，就连奥维尔和维尔伯也没有。纽约时报更是不沾边的。不同的是，奥维尔和维尔伯追求的是一个事业，一个目标，一种信念。他们相信如果他们 能研制出飞行器，将会改变全世界的发展进程。塞缪尔·兰利就不同了，他想要发财，他想要成名。他追求的是最终结果，是变得富有。看吧，看接下来怎么样了。那些怀有和怀特兄弟一样梦想的人 跟他们一起热血朝天地奋斗着。另一边的人则是为了工资而工作。后来流传的故事说，每次怀特兄弟出去实验时，都必须带着五组零件，因为那是在他们回来吃晚饭之前 将要坠毁的次数。10:20 最后，在1903年12月17日，怀特兄弟成功起飞，但是当时没有任何其他人在场目睹。我们是在几天后才知道的。后来的事情进一步证实了 兰利动机不纯，他在怀特兄弟成功的当天就辞职了。他本来应该可以说： “伙计们，这真是一项伟大的发明，我可以改进你们的技术。” 但是他没有，因为他不是第一个制造出飞机的人，他就不会变得富有，他也不会变得有名，所以他辞职了。10:50 人们买的不是你的产品；而是你的信念。如果你讲述你的信念，你将吸引那些跟你拥有同样信念的人。但是为什么吸引那些跟你拥有同样信念的人非常重要呢？ 创新的传播有一个规律，如果你不知道这个规律，你一定了解这个概念。我们的社会中，有2.5%的人 是革新者。13.5%的人 是早期的少部分采纳者。接下来的34%是早期接受的大多数，然后是比较晚接受的大多数和最后行动的。这部分最后行动的人买按键电话的唯一原因是 因为他们再也买不到转盘电话了。11:28（笑声）11:30 虽然我们在不同的时候会处在这个曲线上不同的位置，但是创新的传播规律告诉我们 如果你想在大众市场上 获得成功，或者要大众接纳一个点子，你得等到 获得15%-18%的市场接受度 这个转折点之后才行。那时之后市场才真正打开。我喜欢问公司：“你的新生意怎么样呀？” 他们会很自豪地告诉你 “哦，大概有10%吧。” 是呀，你有可能就在10%的顾客群这里过不去了。我们都能让10%的人“意会”，对，我们一般这样形容他们。就好比描述那种感觉： “哦，他们有点心领神会了”。问题是：你怎么在他们还没有成为你的顾客之前 就发现那些能意会的人，和那些不能意会的人？ 这就是问题的所在，就是这点间隙，你得把这个间隙给填上，正如杰弗里穆尔所说的，“跨越鸿沟”。因为早期的大多数 不会尝试新事物，除非有些人 已经先尝试过了。而这些人，创新者和早期的少数人，他们喜欢大胆的尝试。他们更自然地凭直觉做事情，发自于他们的世界观的直觉，而不仅仅是因为市场上有什么样的产品。12:38 这是一批在 iPhone上市的头几天 去排队等六个小时来购买的人，而其实只要等一个星期你就可以随便走进店里 从货架上买到。这是一批在平板电视刚推出时 会花4万美金买一台的人，尽管当时的技术还不成熟。补充说一下，他们并不是因为技术的先进 而买那些产品，而是为了他们自己。因为他们想成为第一个体验新产品的人。人们买的不是你的产品；人们买的是你的信念。你的行动只是证明了 你的信念。实际上，人们会去做能够体现 他们的信念的事情。那些为了抢先 在头六个小时内买到iPhone 而 排六个小时的队的人，是出于他们的世界观，出于他们想别人怎么看自己。他们是第一批体验者。人们买的不是你的产品；他们买的是你的信念。13:27 我再举些著名的例子吧，证实创新传播规律的一个失败的例子 和一个成功的例子。首先我们讲这个失败的例子。还是商业上的。就如我们一秒钟前刚刚说过的，成功的要素是充足的资金，优秀的人才和良好的市场形势。那么，是不是如果有这些你就应该获得成功。看看蒂沃（TiVo）数字视频公司吧。自从推出蒂沃机顶盒以来，大概是八、九年前，直到今天，它们一直是市场上唯一的最高品质的产品，这没有任何异议。它们绝对是资金充足，市场形势也大好。其实，“蒂沃” 都变成了一个日常用的动词。比如：我经常把东西蒂沃到我那台华纳数码视频录像机里面。14:08 但是蒂沃是个商业上的失败案例，他们没有赚到一分钱。他们上市时，股票价格大约在30到40美元，然后就直线下跌，而成交价格从没超过10美元。实际上，我印象中它的交易价格从来没有超过 6美元，除了几次小的震荡之外。因为你会发现，蒂沃公司新推出他们的产品时，他们只是告诉我们他们产品是什么，他们说 “我们的产品可以把电视节目暂停，跳过广告，回放电视节目，还能记住你的观看习惯，你甚至都不用刻意设置它。” 挑剔的人们说： “我们不相信你，我们不需要这样的东西，我们也不喜欢这样的东西。你在唬人。” 假如他们这么说： “如果你 想掌控 生活的方方面面，朋友，那么就试试我们的产品吧。它可以暂停直播节目，跳过广告，回放直播节目，还能记下你的观看习惯，等等。人们买的不是你的产品；人们买的是你的信念。你所做的仅仅只是 你的信念的证明而已。15:11 下面我给大家介绍一个 成功的例子。1963年的夏天，25万人 聚集在华盛顿特区 聆听马丁•路德•金博士的演讲。那时，既没有发请帖，也没有可能在网上查看日期。怎么会有 25万人参加呢？ 而且，金博士不是美国唯一 的伟大演说家，也不是美国唯一一位在民权法案实施前 遭受歧视的人。实际上，他的一些想法甚至不正确。但是他有个天赋。他没有到处宣扬美国需要改变什么方面，他只是到处告诉别人他所相信的。“我相信。我相信。我相信。” 他总是这么跟别人说。而那些和他怀有同样信念的人 受了他的启发，他们也开始 将自己的信念告诉别人。有些人建立起一些组织机构 将这些话传给更多的人。你看，就这样，25万人 在那天，那个时候，聚集在一起听他演讲。16:16 有多少人是为了听 “他” 演说而去的呢？ 没有人。他们是为了他们自己而去的。那是他们对于美国的信念 支持着他们坐 8个小时的公车，站在华盛顿八月中旬的烈日下。是他们所相信的信念，而不是黑人跟白人之间的斗争。25%的听众是白人。金博士相信 世界上有两种律法，一种是上天制定的，一种是世人制定的。直到世人制定的法律 和上天制定的律法相符合，我们才真正生活在公正的世界里。民权运动只是碰巧 帮他将信念 付诸于现实的一件事情。我们跟随他，不是为了他，而是为了我们自己。顺便说一下，他的演讲是 “我有一个梦想”，而不是 “我有一个方案”。17:07（笑声）17:11 听听现在的政治家们提出的 12点的大杂烩计划，没一点劲。一些人是当官的，而另一些人是领袖。当官的只是占据在有权力 和威严的位置上，但是只有具有领袖素质的人才能激励我们。无论他们是个人还是组织，我们都追隨领袖，不是因为我们必须这样做，而是因为我们愿意。我们跟随具有领袖能力的人，不是为他们，而是为我们自己。也只有那些从 “为什么”这个圆圈出发的人 才有能力 激励周围的人，或者找到能够激励他们的人。17:51（非常谢谢大家）17:53（鼓掌）

《10 things you didn’t know about orgasm》

Alright.I'm going to show you a couple of images from a very diverting paper in The Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine.I'm going to go way out on a limb and say that it is the most diverting paper ever published in The Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine.The title is “Observations of In-Utero Masturbation.”(Laughter)Okay.Now on the left you can see the hand--that's the big arrow--and the penis on the right.The hand hovering.And over here we have, in the words of radiologist Israel Meisner, “The hand grasping the penis in a fashion resembling masturbation movements.” Bear in mind this was an ultrasound, so it would have been moving images.1:01 Orgasm is a reflex of the autonomic nervous system.Now this is the part of the nervous system that deals with the things that we don't consciously control, like digestion, heart rate and sexual arousal.And the orgasm reflex can be triggered by a surprisingly broad range of input.Genital stimulation.Duh.But also Kinsey interviewed a woman who could be brought to orgasm by having someone stroke her eyebrow.People with spinal cord injuries, like paraplegias, quadriplegias, will often develop a very, very sensitive area right above the level of their injury, wherever that is.There is such a thing as a knee orgasm in the literature.1:44 I think the most curious one that I came across was a case report of a woman who had an orgasm every time she brushed her teeth.(Laughter)This was something in the complex sensory-motor action of brushing her teeth was triggering orgasm.And she went to a neurologist who was fascinated.He checked to see if it was something in the toothpaste, but no--it happened with any brand.They stimulated her gums with a toothpick, to see if that was doing it.No.It was the whole, you know, motion.And the amazing thing to me is that now you would think this woman would like have excellent oral hygiene.(Laughter)Sadly she--this is what it said in the journal paper--“She believed that she was possessed by demons and switched to mouthwash for her oral care.” It's so sad.2:44(Laughter)2:45 I interviewed, when I was working on the book, I interviewed a woman who can think herself to orgasm.She was part of a study at Rutgers University.You gotta love that.Rutgers.So I interviewed her in Oakland, in a sushi restaurant.And I said, “So, could you do it right here?” And she said, “Yeah, but you know I'd rather finish my meal if you don't mind.”(Laughter)But afterwards she was kind enough to demonstrate on a bench outside.It was remarkable.It took about one minute.And I said to her, “Are you just doing this all the time?”(Laughter)She said, “No.Honestly when I get home I'm usually too tired.”(Laughter)She said that the last time she had done it was on the Disneyland tram.3:36(Laughter)3:38 The headquarters for orgasm, along the spinal nerve, is something called the sacral nerve root, which is back here.And if you trigger, if you stimulate with an electrode, the precise spot, you will trigger an orgasm.And it is a fact that you can trigger spinal reflexes in dead people--a certain kind of dead person, a beating-heart cadaver.Now this is somebody who is brain-dead, legally dead, definitely checked out, but is being kept alive on a respirator, so that their organs will be oxygenated for transplantation.Now in one of these brain-dead people, if you trigger the right spot, you will see something every now and then.There is a reflex called the Lazarus reflex.And this is--I'll demonstrate as best I can, not being dead.It's like this.You trigger the spot.The dead guy, or gal, goes...like that.Very unsettling for people working in pathology labs.4:39(Laughter)4:40 Now if you can trigger the Lazarus reflex in a dead person, why not the orgasm reflex? I asked this question to a brain death expert, Stephanie Mann, who was foolish enough to return my emails.(Laughter)I said, “So, could you conceivably trigger an orgasm in a dead person?” She said, “Yes, if the sacral nerve is being oxygenated, you conceivably could.” Obviously it wouldn't be as much fun for the person.But it would be an orgasm--(Laughter)nonetheless.I actually suggested to--there is a researcher at the University of Alabama who does orgasm research.I said to her, “You should do an experiment.You know? You can get cadavers if you work at a university.” I said, “You should actually do this.” She said, “You get the human subjects review board approval for this one.” 5:31(Laughter)5:33 According to 1930s marriage manual author, Theodoor van de Velde, a slight seminal odor can be detected on the breath of a woman within about an hour after sexual intercourse.Theodoor van de Velde was something of a semen connoisseur.(Laughter)This is a guy writing a book, “Ideal Marriage,” you know.Very heavy hetero guy.But he wrote in this book, “Ideal Marriage”--he said that he could differentiate between the semen of a young man, which he said had a fresh, exhilarating smell, and the semen of mature men, whose semen smelled quote, “Remarkably like that of the flowers of the Spanish chestnut.Sometimes quite freshly floral, and then again sometimes extremely pungent.” 6:18(Laughter)6:23 Okay.In 1999, in the state of Israel, a man began hiccupping.And this was one of those cases that went on and on.He tried everything his friends suggested.Nothing seemed to help.Days went by.At a certain point, the man, still hiccupping, had sex with his wife.And lo and behold, the hiccups went away.He told his doctor, who published a case report in a Canadian medical journal under the title, “Sexual Intercourse as a Potential Treatment for Intractable Hiccups.” I love this article because at a certain point they suggested that unattached hiccuppers could try masturbation.(Laughter)I love that because there is like a whole demographic: unattached hiccuppers.(Laughter)Married, single, unattached hiccupper.7:15 In the 1900s, early 1900s gynecologists, a lot of gynecologists believed that when a woman has an orgasm the contractions serve to suck the semen up through the cervix and sort of deliver it really quickly to the egg, thereby upping the odds of conception.It was called the “upsuck” theory.(Laughter)If you go all the way back to Hippocrates, physicians believed that orgasm in women was not just helpful for conception, but necessary.Doctors back then were routinely telling men the importance of pleasuring their wives.Marriage-manual author and semen-sniffer Theodoor van de Velde--(Laughter)has a line in his book.I loved this guy.I got a lot of mileage out of Theodoor van de Velde.He had this line in his book that supposedly comes from the Habsburg Monarchy, where there was an empress Maria Theresa, who was having trouble conceiving.And apparently the royal court physician said to her, “I am of the opinion that the vulva of your most sacred majesty be titillated for some time prior to intercourse.”(Laughter)It's apparently, I don't know, on the record somewhere.8:33 Masters and Johnson: now we're moving forward to the 1950s.Masters and Johnson were upsuck skeptics, which is also really fun to say.They didn't buy it.And they decided, being Masters and Johnson, that they would get to the bottom of it.They brought women into the lab--I think it was five women--and outfitted them with cervical caps containing artificial semen.And in the artificial semen was a radio-opaque substance, such that it would show up on an X-ray.This is the 1950s.Anyway these women sat in front of an X-ray device.And they masturbated.And Masters and Johnson looked to see if the semen was being sucked up.Did not find any evidence of upsuck.You may be wondering, “How do you make artificial semen?”(Laughter)I have an answer for you.I have two answers.You can use flour and water, or cornstarch and water.I actually found three separate recipes in the literature.(Laughter)My favorite being the one that says--you know, they have the ingredients listed, and then in a recipe it will say, for example, “Yield: two dozen cupcakes.” This one said, “Yield: one ejaculate.” 9:49(Laughter)9:52 There's another way that orgasm might boost fertility.This one involves men.Sperm that sit around in the body for a week or more start to develop abnormalities that make them less effective at head-banging their way into the egg.British sexologist Roy Levin has speculated that this is perhaps why men evolved to be such enthusiastic and frequent masturbators.He said, “If I keep tossing myself off I get fresh sperm being made.” Which I thought was an interesting idea, theory.So now you have an evolutionary excuse.10:23(Laughter)10:27 Okay.10:30(Laughter)10:32 Alrighty.There is considerable evidence for upsuck in the animal kingdom--pigs, for instance.In Denmark, the Danish National Committee for Pig Production found out that if you sexually stimulate a sow while you artificially inseminate her, you will see a six-percent increase in the farrowing rate, which is the number of piglets produced.So they came up with this plan, this five-point stimulation plan for the sows.And they had the farmers--there is posters they put in the barn, and they have a DVD.And I got a copy of this DVD.(Laughter)This is my unveiling, because I am going to show you a clip.11:12(Laughter)11:14 So uh, okay.Now here we go in to the--la la la, off to work.It all looks very innocent.He's going to be doing things with his hands that the boar would use his snout, lacking hands.Okay.(Laughter)This is it.The boar has a very odd courtship repertoire.(Laughter)This is to mimic the weight of the boar.(Laughter)You should know, the clitoris of the pig, inside the vagina.So this may be sort of titillating for her.Here we go.(Laughter)And the happy result.(Applause)I love this video.There is a point in this video, towards the beginning where they zoom in for a close up of his hand with his wedding ring, as if to say, “It's okay, it's just his job.He really does like women.” 12:28(Laughter)12:32 Okay.Now I said--when I was in Denmark, my host was named Anne Marie.And I said, “So why don't you just stimulate the clitoris of the pig? Why don't you have the farmers do that? That's not one of your five steps.” She said--I have to read you what she said, because I love it.She said, “It was a big hurdle just to get farmers to touch underneath the vulva.So we thought, let's not mention the clitoris right now.”(Laughter)Shy but ambitious pig farmers, however, can purchase a--this is true--a sow vibrator, that hangs on the sperm feeder tube to vibrate.Because, as I mentioned, the clitoris is inside the vagina.So possibly, you know, a little more arousing than it looks.And I also said to her, “Now these sows.I mean, you may have noticed there, The sow doesn't look to be in the throes of ecstasy.” And she said, you can't make that conclusion, because animals don't register pain or pleasure on their faces in the same way that we do.They tend to--pigs, for example, are more like dogs.They use the upper half of the face;the ears are very expressive.So you're not really sure what's going on with the pig.13:39 Primates, on the other hand, we use our mouths more.This is the ejaculation face of the stump-tailed macaque.(Laughter)And, interestingly, this has been observed in female macaques, but only when mounting another female.13:57(Laughter)14:00 Masters and Johnson, in the 1950s, they decided, okay, we're going to figure out the entire human sexual response cycle, from arousal, all the way through orgasm, in men and women--everything that happens in the human body.Okay, with women, a lot of this is happening inside.This did not stop Masters and Johnson.They developed an artificial coition machine.This is basically a penis camera on a motor.There is a phallus, clear acrylic phallus, with a camera and a light source, attached to a motor that is kind of going like this.And the woman would have sex with it.That is what they would do.Pretty amazing.Sadly, this device has been dismantled.This just kills me, not because I wanted to use it--I wanted to see it.14:45(Laughter)14:48 One fine day Alfred Kinsey decided to calculate the average distance traveled by ejaculated semen.This was not idle curiosity.Doctor Kinsey had heard--and there was a theory kind of going around at the time, this being the 1940s--that the force with which semen is thrown against the cervix was a factor in fertility.Kinsey thought it was bunk, so he got to work.He got together in his lab 300 men, a measuring tape, and a movie camera.(Laughter)And in fact he found that in three quarters of the men the stuff just kind of slopped out.It wasn't spurted or thrown or ejected under great force.However, the record holder landed just shy of the eight-foot mark, which is impressive.(Laughter)(Applause)Yes.Exactly.(Laughter)Sadly, he's anonymous.His name is not mentioned.15:54 In his write-up, in his write-up of this experiment in his book, Kinsey wrote, “Two sheets were laid down to protect the oriental carpets.”(Laughter)Which is my second favorite line in the entire oeuvre of Alfred Kinsey.My favorite being, “Cheese crumbs spread before a pair of copulating rats will distract the female, but not the male.” 16:20(Laughter)16:22 Thank you very much.16:24(Applause)16:28 Thanks!

好的。下面是几张图片 这些图片来源于 《超声医学杂志》上发表的的一篇有趣的文章。恕我直言，我觉得这篇文章是 《超声医学杂志》有史以来最受争议的文章。标题为《子宫内自慰观察报告》。（众笑）好吧。左边的是只手，在箭头所指的地方。这个是阴茎。小手在其周围徘徊。在这呢，我们看看 放射科医师以色列·麦斯内 是怎么说的吧，“手持阴茎的动作近似于自慰活动。” 大家别忘了，这是张超声波图像。所以我们可以看到动态影像。1:01 性高潮是自主神经系统的反射作用。自主神经系统 掌管我们无意识控制的活动。比如，食物消化，心率，性冲动等。这个神经系统激起相关器官的反射作用 靠的是花样繁多的输入 阴部刺激。咄。此外，金赛（20世纪美国著名的生物学家和人类性学科学研究者）采访过一位妇女，这名女子 仅靠抚摸眉毛就可以到到高潮。脊椎受伤的人，比如，下肢瘫痪，四肢瘫痪的人 身体部分区域会变得异常敏感 瘫痪部位以上，任何一个区域都有可能。文献中还有记载过“膝盖高潮”（knee orgasm）1:44 不过我所见过最为奇特的 是这样一位女子 她每次刷牙都会达到性高潮。（众笑）这还真是奇事一桩 光是刷牙的触觉 就足以引发高潮 她跑去看神经科医生，医生对此很感兴趣 他检查牙膏，看看是不是其中的特殊成分有作用 但是，不管什么牌子的牙膏都对该女子有效 医生们用 牙签刺激她的牙龈，看看是否同样有效 一点儿也不管用，要知道，是刷牙整个动作给她快感。让我吃惊的是，我本以为她会 又一口皓齿（众笑）可惜的是，听听一期医学刊上的引言，“该女子自认被魔鬼附身，” “转用漱口水来保持口腔卫生。” 真是令人惋惜 2:44（众笑）2:45 为了写一本书，我采访过一位女子 她仅凭意念就可以达到高潮 她是罗格斯大学（Rutgers University）研究计划的一部分 研究人员一定会喜欢我这个采访的。我在奥克兰（加州第八大城市）一家寿司店和她会面 我问道“你能在这儿做吗？” 她回答“当然可以，但你要不介意，我们吃完饭再说好吗？”（众笑）后来，她向我展示她的特异 不过是在餐厅外的长椅上 真的是难以置信。总共一分钟左右。事后我问她 “你是不是整天都这样？”（众笑）她答道“不，老实讲，我每次到家的时候就已经筋疲力竭了。”（众笑）她说距今天最近的一次 是在迪斯尼乐园的有轨电车上 3:36（众笑）3:38 除了脊神经，高潮的 “总部”位于骶神经。就是这儿 要是你用电极刺激这儿 就是这儿，你就能引发一场高潮 同理，死人也会有脊髓反射 只要你用电极刺激 有一种死人，尚有呼吸的死人 脑死亡的人 在法律规定义下就是正式死亡 但靠呼吸机维持基体运转 各个器官也供氧充足 以待器官采摘移植给他人 要是你刺激他们身体相应的区域 在这些尸体身上 你常常会看到 一种叫拉萨路反射（Lazarus reflex）的现象 我尽量向大家展示，尽量用我的活体展示 就这样，刺激这儿 尸体，或男或女，就会„„这样 不过，多病例实验室的人来说，有点惊悚 4:39（众笑）4:40 要是能在死人身上激起拉萨路反射（Lazarus reflex）那有没有可能在死人身上唤起高潮呢？ 我问了一个研究脑死亡的专家 斯蒂芬妮·曼，她也大出意料傻傻的的回了我的邮件（众笑）我问 “你能令人信服的 在死人身上激起高潮吗？” 她回到到“能，只要骶神经供氧充足，你可以令人信服的做到。” 但显然对于被试着没有任何乐趣可言。“ 但高潮终归是高潮--（众笑）然而，我推荐给一位研究者，一位阿拉巴马大学的 研究高潮的学者 我对她说，”你该做做这个实验，要知道，在大学工作，弄到尸体轻而易举 我说，“你该做这项实验” 她道“你该去弄人体试验复查委员会的批准。” 5:31（众笑）5:33 根据上世纪三十年代婚姻指南手册作者 西奥多·范·德·威尔德 交合后一小时内，女子口中会有一点 精液的味道 西奥多 范 德 威尔德倒是个精液鉴赏家（众笑）要知道该人写了一本名为《理想婚姻》的书 他可是异性恋的铁杆主张者 但在《理想婚姻中》他写道 他能辨别青年男子和壮年男子的精液 青年男子的精液有几种新鲜，令人愉悦的气息 而壮年男子呢，用他的话来说，“闻起来像极了西班牙栗子树的花香” 时有鲜花的芬芳，时而又有过于浓郁。“ 6:18（众笑）6:23 好吧，1999年，以色列国 一男子开始打嗝 不幸的是就像众多病例一样，嗝打个不停 他试遍了朋友们推荐的方法 但作用一点没起 日子一天一天过去。突然一天，这个男子 当然还是不停的打嗝，和他的妻子做爱 这是奇迹发生了，打嗝停止了 他告诉医生，医生把病例分析发表在 加拿大一个医学期刊上，题为 《性交作为 顽固打嗝的潜在治疗法》 我很喜欢这篇文章，因为某种程度上建议 单身打嗝病人去自慰来解决问题（众笑）我觉得这主意很妙，人口统计上的新一页，单身打嗝病人（众笑）已婚打嗝病人，未婚打嗝病人，单身打嗝病人 7:15 在二十世纪，二十世纪初 众多妇科病专家认为 但妇女经理高潮时 子宫收缩能将精液吸入宫颈 并快速的将精子传递给卵子 这样可以增加受孕机会 这个被称作”上吸理论“（众笑）我们要是追溯到希波克拉底（古希腊医师，西方医学之父）时代 医生们坚信，女性高潮 不仅对受孕有利，同时也是十分必要的 那时候，医生都会按惯例告诉男子 取悦他们妻子的重要性 婚姻手册作者兼精液探测器 西奥多·范·德·威尔德（众笑）曾在书中这样写道 我真是太喜欢这个人了，西奥多·范·德·威尔德可真是个里程碑式人物 他曾在书中这样写道 据说语出哈布斯堡君主国（包括了自1804年到1867年期间的奥地利帝国和1867年到1918年的奥匈帝国）女王玛丽亚·特蕾西亚 一直没能怀孕 很明显，皇家医生会对她说 ”鄙人以为，您神圣的阴部 在交合前需要稍适爱抚一下。“（众笑）很明显，我也不是很清楚在哪，史料上应该会有记载。8:33 马斯特和强生（二者皆为美国性研究家）：现在我们来看看二十世纪五十年代。马斯特和强生对”上吸理论“持怀疑态度 或者风趣点来说，他们要跟不买账 所以，他们决定要名流青史，弄个究竟。他们找到若干女性作为研究对象，好象是五位 让她们带上子宫套 套中有人造精液 精液中又有 放射线不透性物质 这样可以在X光下成像 这可是上世纪五十年代 不管怎样，这些女性受试者坐在X光仪器前 自慰 以供马斯特和强生观察精液是否会被吸起 迹象表明，没有任何吸起 也许你会想”人造精子是怎么做得？“（众笑）我知道，这儿有两种说法 面粉加水，或玉米淀粉加水 其实，我在文献中找到三个独立的配方（众笑）我最喜欢的一个是这样的，要知道，各个成分都是列出来的，然后会，比如说，”该配方可供制作：12个纸杯蛋糕“ 这个精液配方上可是”给配方可供制作：一射精量精液“ 9:49（众笑）9:52 这儿还有一个高潮有助生育的说法，男性在其中也有分量，在女性体内存活了一周甚至更久的精子 会产生异变 这样精子会比较难一头冲进 卵子 英国性学家罗伊列文 推测这可能是为何男子 会进化成喜欢高频率自慰 他说到”要是我一直自慰，新鲜精子就会源源产生。“ 这个主意，不，理论，其实挺有趣的 现在诸位，你们有了一个进化理论支撑的借口啦 10:23（众笑）10:27 好吧 10:30（众笑）10:32 好的。但是动物世界却有明显的上吸迹象 比如，猪 在丹麦，丹麦国家猪繁殖委员会 发现，要是 母猪在人工配种时性唤起 产仔量会上升6个百分点 也就是说更多的小猪崽会出生 然后一个方案应运而生，为的是把 猪的产仔量再提高5个百分点 宣传海报贴满了牲口棚 DVD分发给农民 我也有这DVD（众笑）这可是独家揭露。我会放一小段视频给大家 11:12（众笑）11:14 好的，开始了，啦啦啦，去工作，看起来还有天真烂漫 接下来他会用双手 不过公猪没手，只能用鼻子，好吧，（众笑）就这样，公猪的求偶节目有点奇怪（众笑）这是模仿公猪的重量（众笑）要知道，母猪的阴蒂在阴道内 所以，这对母猪来说还是有快感的，就这样（众笑）结果皆大欢喜（鼓掌）我很喜欢这视频 视频开头还颇具教育意义 就在农民手部特写那段，镜头给他手上的结婚戒指一个大大的特写 好像想告诉观众”好吧，这是他的工作。他喜欢的还是人类女性“ 12:28（众笑）12:32 好吧，我住在丹麦时，招待我的女主人名叫安·玛丽 我问她”为什么我直接刺激母猪的阴蒂？ 为什么我让农民这样做那？ 这不是5步中的一步吗 她答道，你一定要听听原话，我真是爱死这个了 她说 ”光是让农民触摸母猪的有阴部就够困难的了，就更别提阴蒂啦。“（众笑）但是有点害羞但有雄心壮志的农民呢，可以买这个，这可是真的 母猪振荡器 这东西连接着精子输送管振动 原因呢，正如我所说的 母猪的阴蒂在阴道内 所以，这东西带来的快感还是比表面上看起来的多得多的 并且，我问了女主人，”但是这些母猪，我的意思是，也许你也注意到了，这些母猪看起来不是很乐在其中啊。“ 她说”这么说就没道理啦，因为，你不能用人的标准去衡量猪 人会把痛苦或快感写在脸上，但猪不是这样的。猪呢，打个比方，更像狗，用脸的上半部分传达信息，动耳朵就是很好的表现 所以，你也不能准确的把握猪的感受 13:39 另一方面，作为灵长类动物，我们人类更趋向于用嘴 这是藏酋猴射精时的面部表情（众笑）并且，有趣的是，这个表情也会在雌性藏酋猴脸上看到 不过是在它和另一只雌性藏酋猴交尾时 13:57（众笑）14:00 马斯特和强生在20世纪50年代决定 要研究透彻整个人类性反应链 从性冲动到高潮，从男人到女人 人体在期间的一切反应 对女性来说，这些反应都发生在体内 但这并没有阻止马斯特和强生的步伐 他们研制出一种仿真交媾仪 这东西基本上是个有摄像机的仿真阴茎连着一个马达 这是一个阴茎 丙烯制作的，内嵌摄像机和照明部件 连接在一个这样运转的马达上 然后，被试着与其性交 他们就是用这种方法，听惊人的 可惜的是，这仪器被拆毁了 真是太令我难过了。我并不是想要一个 只是想亲眼看看 14:45（众笑）14:48 一个阳光明媚的一天 阿尔佛雷德·金赛（前面提及的美国性学家）决定 计算精子射出的平均距离 这可并非单为满足奇思怪想 金赛博士听说过 这样一个理论，那时是40年代 精子 射入宫颈的力度 是确保生育的一大因素 金赛觉得这理论是空谈，所以他要用实践检验 他在实验室聚集了 300名男子，测量卷尺和摄像机（众笑）事实上他发现 其中四分之三的男子的精液 只是溢出 而非很有力的喷出射出 但是，有一个“冠军”的 “射程”竟达8英尺（约2.43米），挺惊人的（众笑）（鼓掌）是啊，没错（众笑）可惜的是，这些被试着是匿名的，他的名字没有被提及 15:54 在他的文章中 在他的文章中，金赛没提他的名字 金赛，写道 “两张床单被铺在地上以防沾污地毯。”（众笑）这是金赛所有文献中 我第二最喜欢的一句话 我最喜欢的呢，是“把芝士摆在交媾的老鼠前，收吸引的是雌鼠而非雄鼠。“ 16:20（众笑）16:22 十分感谢

《beats that defy boxes》

[Non English]...and that's one of the things that I enjoy most about this convention.It's not so much, as so little as to do with what everything is.(Laughter)But it is within our self-interest to understand the topography of our lives unto ourselves.(Laughter)The future states that there is no time other than the collapsation of that sensation of the mirror of the memories in which we are living.(Laughter)Common knowledge, but important nonetheless.(Laughter)As we face fear in these times, and fear is all around us, we also have anti-fear.It's hard to imagine or measure.The background radiation is simply too static to be able to be seen under the normal spectral analysis.But we feel as though there are times when a lot of us--you know what I'm say'n? But--you know what I'm say'n? Cuz, like, as a hip hop thing, you know what I'm say'n, TED be rock'n--you know what I'm say'n.Like so I wrote a song, and I hope you guys dig it.It's a song about people and sasquatches--(Laughter)--and other French science stuff.That's French science.Okay, here we go.♫ I've been trying inside ♫ ♫ I know that I'm in trouble by myself ♫ ♫ But every time it gets me ♫ ♫ [unclear] ♫(Music)♫ And I've been trying to be the one that you believe in ♫ ♫ And you're the one that I want to be so saucy ♫ ♫ And you're the one I want to [unclear], baby ♫ ♫ And you can do anything ♫ ♫ as long as you don't get hurt along the way back ♫ ♫ If I survive, I'm gonna tell you what is wrong ♫ ♫ Because if you were [unclear] ♫ ♫ And I think that you're looking like a [unclear] ♫ ♫ I give you what I want to be ♫(Music)And it's like, you could use as many of those things that you want.(Applause)And the computer models, no matter how many that you have and how many people that you use, are never going to be able to arrive at the same conclusions.Four years ago I worked with a few people at the Brookings Institute, and I arrived at a conclusion.(Laughter)Tomorrow is another day.(Laughter)Not just any day, but it is a day.It will get here, there's no question.And the important thing to remember is that this simulation is a good one.It's believable, it's tactile.You can reach out--things are solid.You can move objects from one area to another.You can feel your body.You can say, “I'd like to go over to this location,” and you can move this mass of molecules through the air over to another location at will.(Laughter)That's something you live inside of every day.Now with the allocation and the understanding of the lack of understanding, we enter into a new era of science in which we feel nothing more than so much so as to say that those within themselves, comporary or non-comporary, will figuratively figure into the folding of our non-understanding and our partial understanding to the networks of which we all draw our source and conclusions from.(Laughter)So, as I say before the last piece, feel not as though it is a sphere we live on, rather an infinite plane which has the illusion of leading yourself back to the point of origin.(Laughter)Once we understand that all the spheres in the sky are just large infinite planes, it will be plain to see.Ha Ha Ha.This is my final piece.And just remember everything you are--it's more important to realize the negative space, as music is only the division of space;it is the space we are listening to divided as such, which gives us the information comparison to something other that gives us the idea of what the idea that wants to be transmitted wants to be.So please, without further ado.(Applause)Thank you.(Applause)This is a fun one.It goes like this.(Music)Okay, for the last piece I'd like to do, this one goes very similar to this.I hope you guys recognize it.Here we go.Okay, that still works.Okay, good.All right, here we go.(Laughter)(Music)Here we go.(Music)♫ Yeah, yo, yo, yo ♫(Music)Thank you.Enjoy the rest.Thank you.(Applause)

《my 12 pairs of legs》

I was speaking to a group of about 300 kids, ages six to eight, at a children's museum, and I brought with me a bag full of legs, similar to the kinds of things you see up here, and had them laid out on a table for the kids.And, from my experience, you know, kids are naturally curious about what they don't know, or don't understand, or is foreign to them.They only learn to be frightened of those differences when an adult influences them to behave that way, and maybe censors that natural curiosity, or you know, reins in the question-asking in the hopes of them being polite little kids.So I just pictured a first grade teacher out in the lobby with these unruly kids, saying, “Now, whatever you do, don't stare at her legs.” 0:54 But, of course, that's the point.That's why I was there, I wanted to invite them to look and explore.So I made a deal with the adults that the kids could come in without any adults for two minutes on their own.The doors open, the kids descend on this table of legs, and they are poking and prodding, and they're wiggling toes, and they're trying to put their full weight on the sprinting leg to see what happens with that.And I said, “Kids, really quickly--I woke up this morning, I decided I wanted to be able to jump over a house--nothing too big, two or three stories--but, if you could think of any animal, any superhero, any cartoon character, anything you can dream up right now, what kind of legs would you build me?” 1:36 And immediately a voice shouted, “Kangaroo!” “No, no, no!Should be a frog!” “No.It should be Go Go Gadget!” “No, no, no!It should be the Incredibles.” And other things that I don't--aren't familiar with.And then, one eight-year-old said, “Hey, why wouldn't you want to fly too?” And the whole room, including me, was like, “Yeah.”(Laughter)And just like that, I went from being a woman that these kids would have been trained to see as “disabled” to somebody that had potential that their bodies didn't have yet.Somebody that might even be super-abled.Interesting.2:16 So some of you actually saw me at TED, 11 years ago.And there's been a lot of talk about how life-changing this conference is for both speakers and attendees, and I am no exception.TED literally was the launch pad to the next decade of my life's exploration.At the time, the legs I presented were groundbreaking in prosthetics.I had woven carbon fiber sprinting legs modeled after the hind leg of a cheetah, which you may have seen on stage yesterday.And also these very life-like, intrinsically painted silicone legs.2:52 So at the time, it was my opportunity to put a call out to innovators outside the traditional medical prosthetic community to come bring their talent to the science and to the art of building legs.So that we can stop compartmentalizing form, function and aesthetic, and assigning them different values.Well, lucky for me, a lot of people answered that call.And the journey started, funny enough, with a TED conference attendee--Chee Pearlman, who hopefully is in the audience somewhere today.She was the editor then of a magazine called ID, and she gave me a cover story.3:31 This started an incredible journey.Curious encounters were happening to me at the time;I'd been accepting numerous invitations to speak on the design of the cheetah legs around the world.And people would come up to me after the conference, after my talk, men and women.And the conversation would go something like this, “You know Aimee, you're very attractive.You don't look disabled.”(Laughter)I thought, “Well, that's amazing, because I don't feel disabled.” And it really opened my eyes to this conversation that could be explored, about beauty.What does a beautiful woman have to look like? What is a sexy body? And interestingly, from an identity standpoint, what does it mean to have a disability? I mean, people--Pamela Anderson has more prosthetic in her body than I do.Nobody calls her disabled.(Laughter)4:28 So this magazine, through the hands of graphic designer Peter Saville, went to fashion designer Alexander McQueen, and photographer Nick Knight, who were also interested in exploring that conversation.So, three months after TED I found myself on a plane to London, doing my first fashion shoot, which resulted in this cover--“Fashion-able”? Three months after that, I did my first runway show for Alexander McQueen on a pair of hand-carved wooden legs made from solid ash.Nobody knew--everyone thought they were wooden boots.Actually, I have them on stage with me: grapevines, magnolias--truly stunning.Poetry matters.Poetry is what elevates the banal and neglected object to a realm of art.It can transform the thing that might have made people fearful into something that invites them to look, and look a little longer, and maybe even understand.5:34 I learned this firsthand with my next adventure.The artist Matthew Barney, in his film opus called the “The Cremaster Cycle.” This is where it really hit home for me--that my legs could be wearable sculpture.And even at this point, I started to move away from the need to replicate human-ness as the only aesthetic ideal.So we made what people lovingly referred to as glass legs even though they're actually optically clear polyurethane, a.k.a.bowling ball material.Heavy!Then we made these legs that are cast in soil with a potato root system growing in them, and beetroots out the top, and a very lovely brass toe.That's a good close-up of that one.Then another character was a half-woman, half-cheetah--a little homage to my life as an athlete.14 hours of prosthetic make-up to get into a creature that had articulated paws, claws and a tail that whipped around, like a gecko.(Laughter)And then another pair of legs we collaborated on were these--look like jellyfish legs, also polyurethane.And the only purpose that these legs can serve, outside the context of the film, is to provoke the senses and ignite the imagination.So whimsy matters.6:56 Today, I have over a dozen pair of prosthetic legs that various people have made for me, and with them I have different negotiations of the terrain under my feet, and I can change my height--I have a variable of five different heights.(Laughter)Today, I'm 6'1“.And I had these legs made a little over a year ago at Dorset Orthopedic in England and when I brought them home to Manhattan, my first night out on the town, I went to a very fancy party.And a girl was there who has known me for years at my normal 5'8”.Her mouth dropped open when she saw me, and she went, “But you're so tall!” And I said, “I know.Isn't it fun?” I mean, it's a little bit like wearing stilts on stilts, but I have an entirely new relationship to door jams that I never expected I would ever have.And I was having fun with it.And she looked at me, and she said, “But, Aimee, that's not fair.”(Laughter)(Applause)And the incredible thing was she really meant it.It's not fair that you can change your height, as you want it.8:04 And that's when I knew--that's when I knew that the conversation with society has changed profoundly in this last decade.It is no longer a conversation about overcoming deficiency.It's a conversation about augmentation.It's a conversation about potential.A prosthetic limb doesn't represent the need to replace loss anymore.It can stand as a symbol that the wearer has the power to create whatever it is that they want to create in that space.So people that society once considered to be disabled can now become the architects of their own identities and indeed continue to change those identities by designing their bodies from a place of empowerment.And what is exciting to me so much right now is that by combining cutting-edge technology--robotics, bionics--with the age-old poetry, we are moving closer to understanding our collective humanity.I think that if we want to discover the full potential in our humanity, we need to celebrate those heartbreaking strengths and those glorious disabilities that we all have.I think of Shakespeare's Shylock: “If you prick us, do we not bleed, and if you tickle us, do we not laugh?” It is our humanity, and all the potential within it, that makes us beautiful.Thank you.(Applause)

我曾经和一群大约300人的六到八岁的孩子们 在儿童博物馆交谈 我随身带着一个装满义肢的包 和你们在这里所看到的相像 然后我把它们摆在一个桌子上，给孩子们看 从我的经验来看，要知道，孩子们天生对 他们不知道、不明白 或者不熟悉的东西好奇。只有在成年人的影响下 他们才会学会去害怕 与生俱来的好奇心就这样被抹杀 或者是约束孩子们问问题 好让他们做有礼貌的好孩子 想象一下，大厅里一个一年级老师 带着一群不守规矩的孩子，老师会说：”好啦，不管你干什么，就是别盯着她的腿看。“ 0:54 但是，问题就在这儿 我之所以会在那儿，就是想让孩子们观察和探索 所以我就和成年人达成了协议 让孩子们在们有成人陪伴下 自己待两分钟 门打开后，孩子们俯身摆弄起义肢 他们这儿戳戳那儿碰碰，摇摇脚趾头 还试着把整个身体压在短跑义肢上 看看会有什么反应 我说道：”孩子们，抓紧啊--我早上起来，一心想要能够一下子跳过比房子 没什么大不了的，不过两三层的高度 但是，想想哪些动物、哪些超级英雄、那些卡通人物 你能想到的任何一个 你会给我造一副什么样的腿呢？“ 1:36 立即有孩子答道：“袋鼠！” “不对，不对！应该是青蛙！” “不对，应该是神探佳杰特（上世纪80年代动画人物）！” “不对，不对，都不对！应该是超人特工队（迪斯尼2004年出品动画电影）” 还有其他一些我不太熟悉的 然后，一个8岁的孩子说道，“嗨，为什么你不想飞呢？” 所有在场的人，包括我，惊叹道“对啊”（笑）就这样，我从女人 一个这些孩子被教育成看待的“残疾人” 到一个一个潜能尚待开发的人 一个很有可能有超人能力的人 很有趣吧 2:16 在座的有些人11年前在TED见过我 当时人们热烈讨论这个会议是如何如何改变人生 不管你是听众还是发言人，我也不例外 TED可以说是我接后10年探索的发射台 当时，我展示的义肢是修复术的前沿技术 我当时接上了碳纤维制成的 仿猎豹后肢的短跑义肢 可能你们昨天见过 这些栩栩如生的喷漆硅胶义肢 2:52 当时，我有机会 在传统医学修复领域创新 把他们的才智与科学、艺术相结合 制造义肢 这样我们就不必把外观、功能和美学划分开来 并赋予不同的价值 幸运的是，很多人做出了响应 旅程就这样开始了，很有趣的是，有一个TED参会者 琪 皮尔曼，希望她今天也在场 她当时是一本名为《ID》的杂志的编辑 她把我作为封面故事刊登在杂志上 3:31 接下来我开始了一场奇妙的旅程 当时我奇妙地碰到了很多人和事 我被邀请去做了很多演讲 在世界各地讨论仿猎豹义肢技术 人们在演讲后找到我 不论男女 谈话内容不外乎 “要知道艾美，你很迷人。一点不像有残疾的。”（笑）我想“这还挺神的，因为我一点也不感到残疾。” 我的有关演讲的视野也被打开了 美也可以被探索 一个美丽的女人应该长什么样？ 什么是性感的身体？ 很有趣的是，从一个身份角度 残疾意味着什么？ 我是说，有人--比如帕米拉·安德森（美国艳星，以其硕大的隆胸著称）的修复程度可大大高过我 可没人说她残疾（笑）4:28 后来这期《ID》杂志，经美术设计师皮特·萨维耶之手 传到了时装设计师亚历山大·麦昆和摄影师尼克·奈特手中 他们也对探索相关方面很感兴趣 参加完TED几个月后，我就搭上了前往 伦敦的航班，摄制我的第一组时尚杂志照片 结果可以从这本杂志封面看出--时尚吗？ 3个月后，我为亚历山大·麦昆做了第一场时装秀 腿着一副硬木手工义肢 没人知道--大家都以为是木制长靴 事实上，它们就在台上 葡萄藤、木兰花，惊人的美 诗意很重要 诗歌能把陈腐和受忽视的东西提升到高层次 进入艺术的境界 能把令人生畏的东西转化成 引人入胜的东西 让人驻足良久 也许会让人们理解 5:34 这些是我从我的下一个冒险中第一手学到的 艺术家马修·巴尼在他的影片《悬丝》 这部影片真是醍醐灌顶 我的双腿竟可以成为雕塑品 这时，我就游离开模仿人体 开始探索美学的理想 后来我们研制了人们昵称为玻璃腿的义肢 虽然它们实际上是剔透的聚亚安酯制作的 也就是制造保龄球的材料 相当重的！后来我们用根与土壤的东西塑造这种义肢 把土豆根系植于其中，把甜菜根植在上头 还装上了很可爱的铜质脚趾 就这样完成了一个杰作 另一个造型是半人半兽 是对我运动员生涯的小小致敬 14个小时的义肢彩绘 才看起来像有灵活爪子、摇来摇去的尾巴的生物 有点像壁虎（笑）另一付我们合作创作的义肢 看起来有那么一点像水母 同样也是聚亚安酯制成的 这副义肢唯一的用途就是 除了电影里的展示，就是给人们感官刺激并激发人们的想象 所以诡谲多变很重要 6:56 今天，我带了至少12副义肢 它们是由不同的人为我制作的 不同的义肢给了我与我脚下大地的不同体验 我还可以改变身高 我有5个不同的身高（笑）今天，我有6尺1（约186cm）我身上这副义肢大概是一年前做的 在英国的多西特整形外科做的 当我把它们带回曼哈顿的家里 我回来后第一次出来是去一个化妆舞会 舞会上有个姑娘我认识多年了 不过那时我只有5尺8（约177cm）她看到我惊讶不已 她说道“你怎么那么高！” 我说道“是啊，挺好玩的，不是吗？” 有点像站在高跷上踩高跷 但我从此对门框有了全新体验 始料未及的新天地 我乐在其中 她看着我 说道：“但是，艾美，这可不公平。”（笑）（鼓掌）最奇妙的是她是认真的 能随意改变身高 可不公平8:04 那时我才知道--那时我才知道社会交往的 巨大变革 在近10年来 这不再是克服先天障碍 是关于增量 是关于潜能 义肢的作用不再仅局限于代替身体缺失部分 它们可以作为佩戴者身份的象征 可以创造佩戴者天马行空的想象 在这个空间 所以那些社会一度认为是残障的人 可以成为自己塑造身份的建筑师 并且切实继续改变身份 仅凭设计自己的身体 从一个强大的源泉获取灵感 现在令我激动不已的是 通过尖端科技 机器人技术、仿生学--及由来已久的诗意 我们向自身的集体人性迈进了一步 我认为要发掘自身 人性的的潜质 我们要赞美那些令人心碎的力量 那些人人都有的光荣的残障 我认为莎士比亚笔下的夏洛克 “你们要是用刀剑刺我们，我们不是也会出血的吗？ 你们要是搔我们的痒，我们不是也会笑起来的吗？” 这就是我们的人性 及其所有的潜质 是这些让我们熠熠生辉 谢谢（鼓掌）

第四篇：TED演讲：别吝啬一声感谢中英文

TED演讲:别吝啬一声感谢

【视频链接】：https://www.xiexiebang.com/talks/laura_trice_suggests_we_all_say_thank_you Hi.I'm here to talk to you about the importance of praise, admiration and thank you, and having it be specific and genuine.And the way I got interested in this was, I noticed in myself, when I was growing up, and until about a few years ago, that I would want to say thank you to someone, I would want to praise them, I would want to take in their praise of me and I'd just stop it.And I asked myself, why? I felt shy, I felt embarrassed.And then my question became, am I the only one who does this? So, I decided to investigate.I'm fortunate enough to work in the rehab facility, so I get to see people who are facing life and death with addiction.And sometimes it comes down to something as simple as, their core wound is their father died without ever saying he's proud of them.But then, they hear from all the family and friends that the father told everybody else that he was proud of him, but he never told the son.It's because he didn't know that his son needed to hear it.So my question is, why don't we ask for the things that we need? I know a gentleman, married for 25 years, who's longing to hear his wife say, “Thank you for being the breadwinner, so I can stay home with the kids,” but won't ask.I know a woman who's good at this.She, once a week, meets with her husband and says, “I'd really like you to thank me for all these things I did in the house and with the kids.” And he goes, “Oh, this is great, this is great.” And praise really does have to be genuine, but she takes responsibility for that.And a friend of mine, April, who I've had since kindergarten, she thanks her children for doing their chores.And she said, “Why wouldn't I thank it, even though they're supposed to do it?” So, the question is, why was I blocking it? Why were other people blocking it? Why can I say, “I'll take my steak medium rare, I need size six shoes,” but I won't say, “Would you praise me this way?” And it's because I'm giving you critical data about me.I'm telling you where I'm insecure.I'm telling you where I need your help.And I'm treating you, my inner circle, like you're the enemy.Because what can you do with that data? You could neglect me.You could abuse it.Or you could actually meet my need.And I took my bike into the bike store--I love this--same bike, and they'd do something called “truing” the wheels.The guy said, “You know, when you true the wheels, it's going to make the bike so much better.” I get the same bike back, and they've taken all the little warps out of those same wheels I've had for two and a half years, and my bike is like new.So, I'm going to challenge all of you.I want you to true your wheels: be honest about the praise that you need to hear.What do you need to hear? Go home to your wife--go ask her, what does she need?Go home to your husband--what does he need? Go home and ask those questions, and then help the people around you.And it's simple.And why should we care about this? We talk about world peace.How can we have world peace with different cultures, different languages? I think it starts household by household, under the same roof.So, let's make it right in our own backyard.And I want to thank all of you in the audience for being great husbands, great mothers, friends, daughters, sons.And maybe somebody's never said that to you, but you've done a really, really good job.And thank you for being here, just showing up and changing the world with your ideas.Thank you.(Applause)

我对这方面感兴趣的方式是，当我长大了，直到大约几年前，我想对某人说谢谢，我想赞美他们，我想对我的赞美，我会阻止它。我问自己，为什么？我感到害羞，感到尴尬。然后我的问题就变成了，我是唯一一个这样做的人吗？所以，我决定调查。

我非常幸运的在一家康复中心工作，所以我可以看到人在面对生死与成瘾。有时它会归结为一点简单的事情，他们的核心伤口是他们的父亲死了，而没有说他为他们感到骄傲。但是，他们听到来自所有的家庭和朋友，父亲告诉其他人，他为他感到骄傲，但他从来没有告诉儿子。因为他不知道他的儿子需要听它。

所以我的问题是，为什么我们不要求我们需要的东西？我知道先生，结婚25年了，他渴望听到他妻子说，“感谢你为养家糊口的人，所以我可以和孩子们呆在家里，“但不会问。我认识一个很好的女人。她，每周一次，遇到她的丈夫说：“我真的很喜欢你，谢谢我做的所有这些事情我做的房子和孩子，”和他去，“哦，这是伟大的，这是伟大的”和赞美真的必须是真正的，但她承担责任。我的一个朋友，四月，我从幼儿园开始，她感谢她的孩子做家务。她说，“为什么我不感谢它，即使他们应该这样做？”

所以，问题是，为什么我会阻碍它？为什么其他人会阻塞它？我为什么要说，“我要吃我的牛排，我需要六双鞋，”但我不说，“你这样夸奖我吗？”这是因为我给了你关于我的重要数据。我告诉你我是不安全的。我告诉你我需要你的帮助。我在对待你，我的内心，就像你的敌人。因为你能用这些数据做什么？你可以忽略我。你可以滥用它。或者你可以真正满足我的需要。

我把我的自行车在自行车店——我爱这——同样的自行车，他们会做一些所谓的“修整”车轮。他说，“你知道，当你真正的车轮，它会使自行车更好。“我得到相同的自行车后，他们已经把所有的小扭曲了我已经有两年半的时间，同样，我的自行车轮子，像新的一样。所以，我要挑战你们所有人。我要你真正的你的轮子：是诚实的赞美，你需要听到。你需要听什么？回到你的妻子去问她，她需要什么？回到你丈夫身边--他需要什么？回家问这些问题，然后帮助周围的人。

这很简单。我们为什么要关心这个？我们谈论世界和平。我们如何才能有不同的文化，不同的语言，世界和平？我想是一个家庭的家庭，在同一屋檐下。所以，让我们把它放在我们自己的后院。我要感谢你们所有的人都是伟大的丈夫，伟大的母亲，朋友，女儿，儿子。也许有人从来没有对你说过这样的话，但你真的做了一个非常好的工作，谢谢你在这里，只是用你的想法展示和改变世界。

谢谢你。（掌声）

第五篇：TED演讲中的句子

TED演讲中的句子

1.[谈对人生的热情]

It was an achievement worthy of Mahatma Gandhi, conducted with the shrewdness of a lawyer and the idealism of a saint.他带来的效应堪比圣雄甘地，兼具律师的机智和圣贤的理想主义。

―It’s okay.It was all so beautiful.Whenever you hear this, I will be there.‖

情况没你想得那么糟，世界多么美好！每当你听到这首曲子的时候，我都在你的身边。

The secret of their extraordinary success lay precisely in that insatiable curiosity, that irrepressible desire to know, no matter what the subject and no matter what the cost.他们取得非凡成就的秘密，是他们永不满足的好奇心和难以遏制的求知欲，以及对任何事物不计代价的付出。

―Live each day as if it is your last,‖(Gandhi)―learn as if you’ll live forever.‖ This is what I’m passionate about.It is this inextinguishable, undaunted appetite for learning and experience;no matter how risible, no matter how esoteric, no matter how seditious it might seem.要活就要像明天你就会死去一样活着（甘地），要学习就要像你将会永生一样学习。这就是我的热情所在，一种对知识和经验的坚定无畏的渴望，而不管这些知识多么荒唐，抑或神秘，或看上去别有用心。

2.[安静！保持听力健康的八大法则]

Each of you an individual chord, for one definition of health may be that chord is in complete harmony.每个人都是一个独立的和弦。健康的定义之一是令这种和弦保持一种和谐状态。

Reductive listening is to reduce everything down to what’s relevant, and discard everything that’s not relevant.(men)删减性的倾听是有选择的听，只关注想知道的东西而忽略无关紧要的内容（通常男士）。

Expansive listening – get no destination in mind.It’s just enjoying the journey(women typically).扩展性的倾听——无明确目标的倾听，只是享受听的过程（通常女士）。

Three quick tips to protect your ears: 三种保护听力的简单方法： ① Professional hearing protectors 专业听力保护器

② Headphones of the best kind you can afford 买你能买得起的最好耳机

③ When in bad sound, put your fingers in your ears or just move away from it.听到噪音时，最好用手指护住耳朵，或者远离噪音；

Language as decorated silence.语言即经修饰过的宁静。Wind, water, birds – natural sound – all very healthy because all of it that we evolved to over the years.风声，水声，鸟声——大自然的声音对健康很有好处，因为这些都是我们进化过程中陪伴我们的语言。

To design soundscapes just like words of art, that has a foreground, a background, all in beautiful proportion.去设计如艺术品一般的声音氛围，有前景，有背景，并且比例协调。

Just listen to the music is good for you, if it’s music made with good intention, made with love, generally.听音乐也好，只要它的创作动机是好的，是有爱的音乐就可以。

3.[从机器人那里学来的四课]

– Always question assumptions.总是质疑―想当然‖的结论。

– When in doubt, improvise.纠结时，即兴来。

– When your path is blocked, pivot.前路受阻时，围绕中心迂回前进。

– Practice, practice, practice(if you want to do it well)没有什么能替代实践，实践，再实践。

Many of our technological innovations, the devices we dream about, can inspire us to be better humans.我们有许多技术革新，和正在研发的设备可以激励我们变得更好。

Little things, done right, matter.无论多小的事情，做对了就会有大用。

Well-designed moments can build brands.精心设计的细节很容易产生品牌效应。

4.[你为何不会成就伟业]

Passion is the thing that will help you create the highest expression of your talent.能帮助你成就自己才华的最好的一样东西，就是热忱。

You really think it’s appropriate that you should actually take children and use them as a shield? 你真的以为拿小孩当挡箭牌合适吗？

5.[温和的成功哲学]

For good or for ill, we generate these incredible stories about the world around us, and then the world turns around and astonishes us.无论好坏，我们创造了关于周遭世界的绝妙故事，而世界也转过身来，令我们大吃一惊。A snob is anybody who takes a small part of you and uses that to come to a complete vision of who you are.势利的人以一小部分的你来判别你的全部价值。

I don’t think we are particularly materialistic.I think we live in a society which has simply pegged certain emotional rewards to the acquisition of material goods.It’s not the material goods we want, it’s the rewards we want.And that’s a new way of looking at luxury goods.The next time you see somebody driving a Ferrari, don’t think ―This is somebody who is greedy‖, think ―this is somebody who is incredibly vulnerable and in need of love.‖ In other words, feel sympathy, rather than contempt.我并不认为我们特别看重物质，而是生活在一个物质能带来大量情感反馈的时代。我们想要的不是物质，而是背后的情感反馈。这赋予奢侈品一个崭新的含意。下次你看到那些开着法拉利跑车的人，不要去想―这个人很贪婪‖，而应想：―这是一个无比脆弱且渴望爱的人。‖也就是说，同情他们，不要鄙视他们。

The closer two people are, in age, in background, in the process of identification, the more there is a danger of envy.越是两个年龄背景相近的人，越容易陷入嫉妒的苦海。

(What do you do?)And according to how you answer that question, people are either incredibly delighted to see you, or look at their watch and make their excuses.（你做什么工作？）你对这个问题的答案，将决定对方接下来的反应。对方可能表示深感荣幸认识你，或是开始看表，然后想个借口离开。

Most people make a strict correlation between how much time and if you like, love – not romantic love, though that may be something – but love in general, respect they are willing to accord us, that will be strictly defined by our position in the social hierarchy.大部分世人决定要花费多少时间给予多少爱（不一定是浪漫的爱情，虽然那也包括在内）他们所愿意给我们的关爱，尊重取决于我们的社会地位。

The idea that we will make a society where literally everybody is graded, the good at the top, and the bad at the bottom, and it’s exactly done as it should be, is impossible.There are simply too many random factors;we’ll never get to grade them.Hold your horses when you’re coming to judge people.You don’t necessarily know someone’s true value is.That’s an unknown part of them.那种能创造出一个好人在上，坏人在下，中无任何差错的社会的观点，是不现实的。这世上有太多偶然的契机，我们却无从将这些因素分级。在开口评论他人之前，请千万三思而后行。你很有可能不知道他人的真正价值，那是他人的不可测部分。

You cannot be successful at everything.So any vision of success has to admit what it’s losing out on, where the element of loss is.你不可能在所有事情上都成功，所有成功实例必须承认它们同时也失去了一些东西，放弃了一些东西。

There is going to be an element where we are not succeeding.It’s bad enough not getting what we want, but it’s even worse to have an idea of what it is you want and find out at the end of a journey that it isn’t, in fact, what you wanted all along.总是有些什么是我们得不到的。得不到自己想要的已经够糟糕了，更糟糕的是，在你人生旅程的终点，发觉你所追求的，从来不是你真正想要的。

6.[精神病测试的另类答案]

He decided to fake madness to get out of a prison sentence.他决定装疯，以此逃过牢狱之灾。

Capitalism, perhaps at its most remorseless, is a physical manifestation of psychopathy.冷酷无情的资本主义正是精神疾病的物质表现。

So I changed tack.于是我改变了策略。

7.[音乐的力量]

The most miserable and tragic thing about poverty is not the lack of bread or roof, but the feeling of being no-one, the feeling of not being anyone, the lack of identification, the lack of public esteem.关于贫穷最可怜和最悲惨的事情，并不是没有面包可吃，没有房子可住，而是根本没有自我意识，缺乏存在感，缺乏自我认同，不被公众尊重。

I have come to know the mutability of all human relations and have learned to isolate myself from heat and cold so that the temperature balance is fairly well assured.–Elbert Einstein 我已熟悉一切人际关系的变幻无常，也学会漠视这种世态炎凉，以保证我的心态平衡。——爱因斯坦

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.–the Golden Rule 你们愿意人怎样对待你们，你们也要怎样待人。——耶稣的黄金法则

The road to success is lined with many tempting parking spaces.通向成功的路旁充斥着许多诱人的休息区。

It’s going to be a society that’s way in advance of our own.We’re not inevitably doomed to self-destruction.一定存在一个比我们的社会先进很多的另一个社会，我们并不是不可避免地走向自我毁灭。

8.[我们真的需要月亮吗？] When the Earth is spinning very fast, it was very stable.But as it slows down, it will be lose its stability and start to wobble had it not been for the moon.地球在快速转动时，状态十分稳定。但它放慢速度后就会失去稳定性，开始晃动。如果没有 4 月亮，情况就会是这样。

The angle of earth’s spin is constant only because the moon’s gravitational pull.地球的自转角度能够保持不变，完全是因为有了月球的引力拉动。

We piece together the fragment of memory to create the idea of future.我们靠收集记忆碎片去创造未来的想象。

It seems that a lot of unconscious brain activities going on that are shaping on your decision, and your consciousness comes in very late stage of the decisions.似乎有大量的无意识大脑活动在塑造你的决定，而你的意识在决定中表现得很滞后。

9.[如何实现生活与工作的平衡]

And the reality of the society that we’re in is there are thousands and thousands of people out there leading lives of quiet, screaming desperation, where they work long hard hours at jobs they hate to enable them to buy things they don’t need to impress people they don’t like.现实社会的情况是：成千上万的人们都在平静的绝望中煎熬。他们夜以继日地从事他们痛恨的职业，目的是为了购买无用的商品，以博得无关痛痒的邻人的艳羡。

If you don’t design your life, someone else will design it for you, and you may just not like their idea of balance.–To take control and responsibility for the type of lives that we want to lead by ourselves.如果你不规划自己的生活，那么别人就会为你规划，而他们对平衡的处理，你往往并不认同。所以，要自己承担起选择自己生活轨迹的重任。

10.[美妙生活的三个秘诀]

Living with a sense of awareness of the world around you.主动感知你周遭的世界

Embracing your inner three year-old and seeing the tiny joys that make life so sweet.拥抱内心中那个三岁的自己，意识到让生活美好的那些小小快乐。

Being authentic to yourself-being you and being cool with that.做真实的自己，心安理得做自己。

Letting your heart lead you and putting yourself in experiences that satisfy you.顺从自己的心意，让自己置身于能让你快乐的事务中。
