TED演讲：坠机让我学到的三件事
这几天发生的马航失联事件让我们为乘客安全担忧揪心的同时也不禁感慨生命的无常，谁会知道，乘客上飞机前与家人的暂别居然是永别。我们要好好珍惜当下，因为我们永远不知道下一秒会发生什么，就像信的歌‘死了都要爱’里唱的那样，把每一天都当成末日来相爱，我们也要把每天当成是末日来生活，来对待身边的人。离开时，要好好告别，像见最后一次；相见时，要心存感激，像第一次见面。人生无常，且行且珍惜！
灾难到来时，我们会发现看似普通的日常生活是多么可贵。2009年1月15日，全美航空1549号班机迫降纽约哈德逊河，Ric Elias 就坐在第一排的位置。听他分享在“人生最后一刻” 学到了什么。
Imagine a big explosion as you climb through 3,000 ft.Imagine a plane full of smoke.Imagine an engine going clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack.It sounds scary.想像一个大爆炸，当你在三千多英尺的高空；想像机舱内布满黑烟，想像引擎发出喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦的声响，听起来很可怕。
Well I had a unique seat that day.I was sitting in 1D.I was the only one who can talk to the flight attendants.So I looked at them right away, and they said, “No problem.We probably hit some birds.” The pilot had already turned the plane around, and we weren't that far.You could see Manhattan.那天我的位置很特別，我坐在1D，我是唯一可以和空服员说话的人，于是我立刻看着他们，他们说，“没问题，我们可能撞上鸟了。” 机长已经把机头转向，我们离目的地很近，已经可以看到曼哈顿了。
注释：
1.flight attendant: 空中乘务员。attendant为服务员；侍从的意思。在托福听力当中有出现这个词。
2.pilot: 飞行员pilot project: 试点项目
Two minutes later, 3 things happened at the same time.The pilot lines up the plane with the Hudson River.That's usually not the route.He turns off the engines.Now imagine being in a plane with no sound.And then he says 3 words-the most unemotional 3 words I've ever heard.He says, “Brace for impact.”
两分钟以后，三件事情同时发生：机长把飞机对齐哈德逊河，一般的航道可不是这样。他关上引擎。想像坐在一架没有声音的飞机上。然后他说了几个字，我听过最不带情绪的几个字，他说，“即将迫降，小心冲击。”
注释：
1.Brace for impact: 即将迫降，小心冲击 brace for 是准备迎接困难的意思。
brace：v./n.支撑，支撑物。impact大家接触较多的意思是影响，这里是冲击力的意思。
I didn't have to talk to the flight attendant anymore.I could see in her eyes, it was terror.Life was over.我不用再问空服员什么了。我可以在她眼神里看到恐惧，人生结束了。
Now I want to share with you 3 things I learned about myself that day.现在我想和你们分享那天我所学到的三件事。
I leant that it all changes in an instant.We have this bucket list, we have these things we want to do in life, and I thought about all the people I wanted to reach out to that I didn't, all the fences I wanted to mend, all the experiences I wanted to have and I never did.As I thought about that later on, I came up with a saying, which is, “collect bad wines”.Because if the wine is ready and the person is there, I'm opening it.I no longer want to postpone anything in life.And that urgency, that purpose, has really changed my life.在那一瞬间内，一切都改变了。我们的人生目标清单，那些我们想做的事，所有那些我想联络却没有联络的人，那些我想修补的围墙，人际关系，所有我想经历却没有经历的事。之后我回想那些事，我想到一句话，那就是，“我收藏的酒都很差。” 因为如果酒已成熟，分享对象也有，我早就把把酒打开了。我不想再把生命中的任何事延后，这种紧迫感、目标性改变了我的生命。
注释：
1.bucket list: 遗愿清单 kick the bucket: 翘辫子。这个词组其实是说人上吊的时候如
果想死的话是把下面的物体如桶踢掉，因此这个意思是翘辫子的意思。所以bucket list是从这个来的，表示遗愿清单。
The second thing I learnt that dayI thought about, wow, I really feel
one real regret, I've lived a good life.In my own humanity and mistake, I've tried to get better at everything I tried.But in my humanity, I also allow
my ego to get in.And I regretted the time I wasted on things that did not matter with people that matter.And I thought about my relationship with my wife, my friends, with people.And after, as I reflected on that, I decided to
eliminatenegative energy from my life.It's not perfect, but it's a lot better.I've not had a fight with my wife in 2 years.It feels great.I no longer try to be right;I choose to be happy.那天我学到的第二件事是，正当我们通过乔治华盛顿大桥，那也没过多久，我想，哇，我有一件真正后悔的事。虽然我有人性缺点，也犯了些错，但我生活得其实不错。我试着把每件事做得更好。但因为人性，我难免有些自我中心，我后悔竟然花了许多时间，和生命中重要的人讨论那些不重要的事。我想到我和妻子、朋友及人们的关系，之后，回想这件事时，我决定除掉我人生中的负面情绪。还没完全做到，但确实好多了。过去两年我从未和妻子吵架，感觉很好，我不再尝试争论对错，我选择快乐。
注释：
1.reflect on: 回想
2.eliminate: v.去除
3.negative energy: n.负面能量咱们中文经常说的负能量就是这个说法
positive energy: 正面能量
The third thing I learnedfirst-grade, not much artistic talent...yet.And I 'm balling, I'm crying, like a little kid.And it made all the sense in the world to me.I realized at that point by connecting those two dots, that the only thing that matters in my life is being a great dad.Above all, above all, the only goal I have in life is to be a good dad.一个月后，我参加女儿的表演，她一年级，没什么艺术天份，就算如此。我泪流满面，像个孩子，这让我的世界重新有了意义。当当时我意识到，将这两件事连接起来，其实我生命中唯一重要的事，就是成为一个好父亲，比任何事都重要，比任何事都重要，我人生中唯一的目标就是做个好父亲。
注释：
1.Ball: 球；舞会。在这里用成动词，是哭的意思。
I was given the gift of a miracle, of not dying that day.I was given another gift, which was to be able to see into the future and come back and live differently.那天我经历了一个奇迹，我活下來了。我还得到另一个启示，像是看见自己的未来再回來，改变自己的人生。
I challenge you guys that are flying today, imagine the same thing happens on your planebut imagine, and how would you change? What would you get done that you're waiting to get done because you think you'll be here forever? How would you change your relationships and the negative energy in them? And more than anything are you being the best parent you can?
我鼓励今天要坐飞机的各位，想像如果你坐的飞机出了同样的事，最好不要－但想像一下，你会如何改变？有什么是你想做却没做的，因为你觉得你有其它机会做它？你会如何改变你的人际关系，不再如此负面？最重要的是，你是否尽力成为一个好父母？
Thank you.谢谢。

第五篇：这件事让我学会了宽容
爷爷向邻居道歉，让我学会了知错就改；妈妈给奶奶洗脚，让我学会了孝敬老人；老师帮贫困学生交学费，让我学会了乐于助人。然而，爸爸在公共汽车上待人平和，让我学会了宽容。记得去年暑假里，我们一家人乘公共汽车到北京游玩。然而老天不作美，却下着倾盆大雨，所以路不好走。每隔一段时间就停下等待，闹得公共汽车里一片哄乱。正在这时，一位小伙子端着一碗热腾腾的方便面从我们这边走过来了，汽车突然来了个急转弯，小伙子手里的方便面没有抓稳，手一松，方便面全都撒在了爸爸新买的十分名贵的白衬衫上面，白衬衫一下子变成了花狐狸。小伙子连忙向爸爸道歉：对不起对不起，我不是故意的，我给你赔，好吗？本想到爸爸要大发雷霆，可爸爸却幽默地说：小伙子，你把饭都给了我的衬衫，那你可要饿肚子了！听爸爸这么一说，紧张的气氛顿时都消失了，车里的人都笑了，我哭笑不得。下车后，我生气地问爸爸：那个人把你的心衬衫弄脏了，你为什么不让他给你赔呢？爸爸却教育我说：人与人之间要学会宽容，人家也不是故意的，只有宽容待人，才能交到朋友。爸爸的这番话一个星期我都似懂非懂，后来我明白了，这句话将永远成为我的座右铭，将永远激励着我在做人的道路上宽容他人，善待自己，精彩今天，感动明天！
