My Story and the Chinese Dream Behind It
In the past twenty years, China has faced three American presidents, but till coming to Yale today, I never realized that China really just faced one university.Although, through these three presidents, I understand that the quality of Yale graduates is not so even.Let me begin my main subject and let me give it a title, called “My Story and the Chinese Dream Behind It”.I want to talk about five particular years.The first is 1968.That year I was born.But it was also a chaotic year for the world.In France, there was this huge street disturbance, and in America, too.Then President Kennedy was assassinated.However, I really did not cause all of these!But that year what •we remember more was the assassination of Mr.Martin Luther King.Although he fell that year, his words “I have a dream” stood up, not only stood up in America, but across the whole world.But sadly, not only for me, but for almost all Chinese, we did not know such a dream.It was hard to describe each Chinese as having his or her own dream.China and America were so far apart, no less far apart than the Moon and the Earth.But I didn’t care about any of that.All I cared about was could I have a full meal.Clearly, I was born at a very inconvenient time, not only for China, but even for the world, there were problems.In 1978, ten years later, I was 10.I still lived in the very little city that had only 200 thousand people at the time I was born.It was 2000 km from Beijing.If you wanted to read the newspaper from Beijing, you waited three days.So for us, there was no such thing as news.That year my grandfather passed away.Two years before that my father passed away.So there was just my mother left to take care of me and my brother.Her monthly salary was not even ten dollars.As a result, even though I was 10, the word “dream” was still not in my vocabulary, and I would never think of it.I could not see hope in this family, but only felt bitter cold every winter.Where we lived was close to the Soviet Union.Yet the 1978 in which I could not see hope was also the year that a huge change took place, whether for China or for the relationship between China and America.That is a date that everybody here today should remember.December 16, 1978, China and America officially established diplomatic relations.That was a big event.And two days after that, December 18 was when China opened the 3rd Plenary Session of the Eleventh CPC Central Committee.That was the beginning of thirty-one years of Reform and Opening.History, two great nations, and a very pitiful family all became intertwined in a theatrical way.Truthfully, from the small personal family, to the big family of the country, nobody then had any idea what the future would be like.In 1988, I was 20.At this time I had already come out of the little border town to Beijing as a university student.Although we have many people in China today criticizing China’s university entrance exams and see many many deficiencies in it, it must be said that it is such a system that allowed very ordinary people like me to have the opportunity to change our lives.Of course, at that time, America was no longer a very distant country.It became very specific.It was no longer the “Imperialist America” of the past slogans, but it became the many details in our lives.This was the first time that I tasted Coca-Cola.When I finished drinking it I believed China and America were truly so close, because it tasted just like Chinese medicine.That was a time when I took a crazy liking to rock’n'roll.That was a time when Michael Jackson still looked relatively handsome.More importantly, that was a time when China experienced very big transformations, as Reform and Opening had already gone on for ten years.That year, China began experimenting with market pricing for many goods.It may feel like something totally incomprehensible to you, but it was a big deal in China, a huge step, because before that the prices were decided by the government.But in that year, because price controls were relaxed, the whole country went on a crazy shopping spree.Everybody all thought, how long could this last, so they had to get a whole life’s worth of food and goods to bring home.That year symbolized that China marched closer and closer to a market economy.Of course back then nobody knew that market economy could also have a subprime crisis.Anyway, I know that 1988 was an extra important year for Yale, because a Yale alum once again became an American President.In 1998, I was 30.I had already become a news anchor at CCTV.More importantly, I had become the father of a one-year-old child.That year a very important thing happened between China and America, and the protagonist was Clinton.Perhaps you remember his sexual scandal in America, but in China what we remember is his visit to China that year.In June, when he visited China, he and President Jiang Zemin held an open press conference in the Great Hall of the People.Then he gave an open lecture at Peking University.The live anchor for both events was me.During Clinton’s lecture at Peking University, because he used his own translator the whole time, I guessed that many Chinese viewers only knew that Clinton was definitely saying something, but what he said wasn’t all that clear.So near the end of my live broadcast, I remarked that it looked like for America to learn more about China, sometimes it needed to start with language, though for our two countries, face-to-face was always better than back-to-back.It was also at the beginning of that year that I drove the first car in my life.For me this was unimaginable before, that Chinese people one day would also drive their own cars.A personal delight can also make a lasting impression, because sometimes the first time is the most unforgettable.In 2008, I was 40.The words “I have a dream” that haven’t been discussed for many years now were heard among so many Americans.It seemed like Obama really did not want to accept Yale’s 20-year occupation of America.Using words like “change” and “dream”, he even convinced Yale teachers and students to parade and celebrate his election to the Presidency, according to what I’ve heard.But this was also a year in which the Chinese Dream showed clearly.After encountering many setbacks as any grand dream in the world is destined to, it came through.Whether it was the long-awaited Beijing Olympics, or the first spacewalk by a Chinese aboard the Shenzhou 7, these were all dreams which we have waited for a long time since a long time ago.But the sudden Sichuan Earthquake made all this not as magnificent as we had expected.Eighty-thousand lives departed, and made every day of 2008 seem like a year.I’m guessing that on Yale’s campus, on every web site, in front of television and newspapers, were also many people from China, and people in all parts of the world, who shed tears for these lost lives.Just like forty years ago when Mr.Martin Luther King fell but allowed the words “I have a dream” to stand higher, more enduring, and seem ever more valuable, more Chinese people also came to understand that dreams are important, but lives are even more so.During the Olympics, I passed my own fortieth birthday.That day I was full of emotional thoughts, because when the day of my birthday approached, I was broadcasting an exciting competition.Twenty-four hours later, when my birthday was passing, I was still broadcasting.But that day I felt very fortunate.Because it was such a special fortieth birthday at the Beijng Olympics that made me realize the Chinese Dream behind my personal story.It was in this kind of forty years that I went from a far-away border-town kid who had no possibility of having a dream, to a newsman who could be at a big festival celebrated with all of humanity and who could communicate and share the happiness with them.This was a life story that took place in China.And in this year, China and America were not far apart.There was a bit of me in you and a bit of you in me, we needed each other.It was said that President Bush spent the longest time in any country abroad as President, and that was during the Beijing Olympics.Phelps took eight medals there, and his family was there by his side.All Chinese wished that extraordinary family well.Of course, every dream will pass.In such a year, China and America almost simultaneously found their new “I have a dream” moment, and it was so coincidental, and so deserving.America is facing a very very difficult financial crisis, and it isn’t only America, but it affects the whole world seriously.Yesterday I got to New York.As soon as I deplaned, I went to Wall Street.There I saw the statue of President Washington.His gaze was permanently fixed on the huge American flag on the stock exchange.Interestingly, the hall behind the statue was holding an exhibition on “President Lincoln in New York”, so President Lincoln’s huge portrait was also on it, and he also gazed at the flag.I felt the very solemn weight of history.When I left there, I told my colleague this.I said, many many years ago, if something like this befell America, perhaps Chinese people would have taken pleasure, because see, America is miserable again.But today, Chinese people would especially wish that America get better soon.Because we have hundreds of billions worth of money with America.We also have a huge quantity of products waiting to be put on freighters and sent to America.If America’s economy takes a step for the better, it means behind these products, another Chinese gets a raise, it means he regains his employment and happiness in the family.In the past 30 years, I don’t know if you’ve noticed the Chinese Dream that is relevant to more and more ordinary Chinese people.I don’t know what other country in this world, in the past 30 years, has changed the individual fates at this magnitude.A kid from a remote small city on the periphery, a kid in despair, today has the chance to have an exchange with these Yale students.Maybe we can change the viewpoint, and look at 1.3 billion very ordinary Chinese, their down-to-earth dreams, their impulsive drive to change their fates, their still kindhearted temperament, and their diligent character.Today’s China is made up of these words I just spoke.In the past many years, Chinese seemed to be looking at America through a telescope.So everything good that is in America was magnified by this telescope.Frequently people mentioned America was like this and like that, then look at us, when can we be like that.In the past many years, Americans also seemed to be looking at China through a telescope, but I am guessing they held it backwards.Because what they saw was a diminished, always-doing-wrong, full-of-problems China.They overlooked 1.3 very ordinary Chinese people and this impulsive drive and urge of theirs to change their fate, which caused such huge transformations in our country.But I also always had this dream: why do we need to use telescopes to look at each other?
Of course I hope very many Americans have a chance to go see China, and not to look at China through the media.You know I don’t really trust all of my colleagues.I’m just kidding.Actually I respect my American colleagues very much.I only hope that more and more American friends go to see a real China.Because I can at least guarantee one thing.Even if in America you ate what is deemed to be the best Chinese food, in won’t fetch a good price in China.Just like many many years ago, in every city of China there was this popular “California Beef Noodle” shop.Many Chinese all thought, anything from America was definitely very very tasty.So they all went to eat.Although it was not very tasty, they didn’t complain because they knew it was from America.This fast-food chain existed in China for many years, until more and more Chinese people came to America, and searched every corner of California for a California Beef Noodle shop, and could not find a single one.Only then did more and more Chinese know that California doesn’t have such beef noodle, so this chain store in China is in the process of disappearing.This is the kind of discrepancy I am talking about.As we come and go, such misunderstandings will be fewer and fewer.So lastly I just want to say one thing again.Forty years ago, when Mr.Martin Luther King fell down, his words “I have a dream” spread across the world.But, you must know that there is not just an English version of “I have a dream.” In the distant East, in the China that has held on for thousands of years, there is also a dream.It isn’t a grandiose slogan, it doesn’t lie with the government.It belongs to every ordinary Chinese.It is “I have a dream” written in Chinese.

What we cannot afford to lose
英才2班 郭灵
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,Today I am going to talk about what we cannot afford to lose, and my answer is that we cannot afford to lose ourselves.Do you remember a girl, named Ma Nuo, who once said she would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bike? We called her a material girl because she was so obsessed with her possessions.Ma Nuo has won plaudits for her stylish appearance, but is equally derided for her material girl image.I mentioned her just because she can be a good example of the way that people lose themselves to money.In this day and age, it has become a ‘dog eat dog’ world.To some degree, it is no wonder that Ma Nuo has this attitude but as for college students, losing ourselves has become too common a problem.With influence from the news and other media, we are constantly steered in the direction of those who are most glamorous and famous.We are subject to temptation and are faced with the stress of everyday life.Therefore, we lose ourselves with ease.For example, the number of college students who are smoking and drinking continues to rise, with the figure now at 11.7%.There is also a growing trend for students to enter into relationships with one another.However, for many of them, their feelings in the heart are still plagued by darkness.In addition, many students believe it is important to ‘keep up with the Joneses’ and therefore indulge in buying luxury brand products such as clothes, mobile phones etc.But are these products necessary? Absolutely not!It is a waste of money, time and energy.Eventually, people will come to regret this waste.Just as the adage states: you never miss your water, until your well runs dry.To Avoid losing ourselves, we are supposed to have goals—be the person who we are and become the person who we want to be.Don’t lose yourself to the power of brand names and the pressures of the modern society.In other words, participate in the act of living your life.Make our choices.Be proactive.

《why we study english 》Why We study English? It is a good and *** question, but not easy to answer.I am saying it is a good question, because We are now working people in English;I am saying it is a *** question, because probably I can simply answer it that my work demands me to do so, working in English is my job.And why I am saying it is hard to answer? The reason is that I have been working in English for years, however, I have been chased for many times now and then by some people and by myself and the answers were always no big difference.Now, here comes the old question again.It is evident that it is the very time and is good to remind all of us to thoroughly review the purpose of our choice and to rediscover and clarify the best rational and convincible motives deep in hearts, so that we can be pushed forward not only in the activities of English studying but also in that of applications today and tomorrow.Objectively speaking, as we all know, China has been developing for about 20 years and at the moment it is still marching forward at certain surprising high growth rate in world history and is continuing to be involved into the international society much more deeply than before in every aspect such as global economy, international politics, culture intercourse, education exchanges, inter-state trades, and military interplays as well.A more opened China and the much more and heavier global roles and the international responsibilities it is taking and it is pursuing demand more and more skilled experts who are well trained and well experienced in the international communication in English and other languages in all these areas.And therefore, it is true, that the development situation at present and trend in front of us undoubtedly will imply some more serious challenges and more profound opportunities for everyone and already did.All these are forcing us to pick up or continue to study English, or it would not be a chance for anyone to be invincible anyway as previous in this hard-to-breath tide of development unless you are ready to be dead.Nowadays, China is transforming into a more improved market economy system to its perfection, anyone should not ignore the booming market and the arisen competitions surrounding him or around the corner and No one can avoid the shock from it.Whoever you are, and no matter where you stay in the state-owned or private enterprises, there is no where for you to be harbored, thereupon you would better actively to make a show out of yourself and supplement where you lack to tackle different and more and more complicated business and works.For instance, you shall be well qualified to what you are working at, and you should be able to balance with those who came with you in the same year or even later and were with high deGREes and good background but now they have differed in position, payment and other treatments as well.That is a very exigent task for almost every one of us.Surely, indeed, the fact is that We are English oriented now and We are working to keep up with times.I believe after years of running in studying English, We would eventually be one of the best order-made qualified candidates for any challenges and better opportunities.If the various knowledge and English are with us, nothing can be against us.Nevertheless, be sure to remember don’t be always content with any historical achievements you have made and don’t forget to review periodically and to study English continuously more in depth and width with a plan of when and where needed, as every body is running like you.Don’t give up and relax by far when you encounter difficulties.A daily but continuous effort you are *** today will bring what you expected when you decided on and it will do.
