a man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put hishead out the window to check. as he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.
he looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman lookingdown.
"is this yours?" he asked.
she said, "yes, could you bring it up?" and the man agreed.
on arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. asshe was very attractive he agreed. shortly afterwards she said, "i'm about tohave dinner. there's plenty. would you like to join me?"
he readily accepted her offer and both enjoyed a lovely meal. as theevening was drawing to a close the lady said, "i've had a marvelous evening.would you like to stay the night?"
the man hesitated then said, "do you act like this with every man youmeet?"
"no," she replied, "only those who catch my eye."
My school is near a small lake. It is very beautiful. I like my school very much.
We have a high teaching building and it is big and clean. Our classroom is on the fifth floor. The computer rooms are on the third floor. We have computer classes there. We have a big library on the second floor. There are many books in it. I like reading books there. We also have music room and art rooms in the building.
There is a big playground behind the teaching building. After class, we often play basketball there.
The teachers in my school are very kind. The students are very polite and smart. I am happy in my school.
beauty usually refers to what appeals to the eye. a nice and well built girl is regarded as beautiful. a bunch of vigorous flowers are also considered as beautiful. a splendid waterfall coming down from a mountain is as well looked on as beautiful.
beauty also refers to what appeals to the mind. the virtue of the chinese nation-industry and bravery are taken as beautiful, because it helped to produce such a magnificent culture in the world. einstein's theory of relativity is also perceived as beautiful, for it explains many natural phenomena so perfectly.
beauty is around us. if you keep an eye or pay some attention, it is never difficult to find something beautiful somewhere about you. wonderful natural spots, historical relics,fine arts, splendid buildings, and kind people are just a few inches away.
ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i?m very glad to stand here and giveyou a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , andfound the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions: 1、 do you know what is youth? 2、how do you master your youth?
youth
youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind it is not rosy cheeks ,red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshnessit is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of theappetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we growold by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul .worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure ofwonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the gameof living . in the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and powerfrom men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
when the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but aslong as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you maydie young at 80. that?s all ! thank you!
by the time john pulled into the little town, every hotel room was taken."you've got to have a room somewhere." he pleaded. "or just a bed--i don't carewhere."
"well, i do have a double room with one occupant," admitted the manager,"and he might be glad to split the cost. but to tell you the truth, he snores soloudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. i'm not sureit'd be worth it to you."
"no problem," the tired traveler assured him. "i'll take it."
the next morning, john came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.when asked about how he slept, he replied, "never better."
the manager was impressed. "no problem with the other guy snoring,then?"
"nope. i shut him up in no time."
"how'd you manage that?"
"he was already in bed, snoring away, when i came in the room," john said."i went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, 'goodnight, beautiful.' withthat he sat up all night watching me.

My Family
Everyone has a family.We live in it and feel very warm.There are three persons in my family,my mother,father and I.We live together very happily and there are many interesting stories about my family.
My father is a hard-working man.He works as a barber.
My mother is a woman with a bad memory.She always does a lot of housework,but sometimes she makes mistakes out of carelessness.For example,one day,she washed clothes in the washer,after the washer finished the work,she found she hadn't filled the washer with water.
Now let me tell you a funny thing:one day,father wanted to get up early as usual,buthe wasn't able to do that,because he hadn't set the alarm clock the night before,so when he got up,he did everything in a hurry.After father left,mother said to me mysteriously,"He will come back soon." "Why?" I was greatly surprised."Because today is Sunday,his holiday!" Just as mother said,father came back home soon,and went to bed again--he was too tired.
You see,what an interesting family have!I hope that you will have one like mine,too.
我的家庭
每个人都有家.我们大家生活在那里,并从那里获取温暖.我们家有三口人,我妈妈、爸爸,还有我.我们在一起幸福地生活,我们家有许多有趣的故事.
我爸爸工作认真.他是理发师.
我妈妈是一位记性很不好的人.她总是做很多家务活,但有时却因为她的粗心而做错事.比如说,有一天,她用洗衣机洗衣服,最后却发现自己忘了在洗衣机中放水.现在让我告诉你一件有趣的事：一天,爸爸想像平常一样早起,但是由于他前天没有设置闹钟,所以他起晚了,当他起床时,他匆匆忙忙地洗漱完毕就去上班了,爸爸离开后,妈妈神秘地对我说：“他一会儿一定会回来的.”“为什么?”我十分惊讶.“因为今天是星期天,他的假日.”妈妈正说着的时候,不一会儿,爸爸就回来了,并且再一次上床睡觉了——因为他太累了.
你瞧,多么有趣的家庭!我希望你也有一个像我一样的家庭.

各位好，我是刘东懂。我是一名学生。有3人在我的家人，我的父亲，母亲和我。
我父亲是40岁。他是一名工人。我认为他是一个很好的工人。因为他的作品很难。他起床很早，他每天工作超过10小时。所以，他总是很忙，他看上去很疲惫，当他回家。他喜欢阅读报纸。他通常晚饭后读取它。于是，他得到大量的新闻。
我母亲38岁。她是一个工人也。她的作品在一个非常小的工厂。她个子不高，她有两个大眼睛。她爱我，她对我来说是很好的。她总是购买一些书籍对我来说。她希望我是一个顶端的学生。她还关心我的饮食和生活。
我15岁。我戴眼镜。我喜欢阅读。我一直在学校读书。我喜欢唱歌，也。我最喜爱的歌手是周杰伦。他的音乐是非常好的。你觉得呢?我也喜欢结交朋友。如果你想和我会面，请写信给我。
噢，我的父母爱我，我也很爱他们。我的家庭是一个幸福的家庭。
Attention,please:
okay, same thing is true in our workplaces. now, most of us work in open plan offices, without walls, where we are subject to the constant noise and gaze of our coworkers. and when it comes to leadership, introverts are routinely passed over for leadership positions, even though introverts tend to be very careful, much less likely to take outsize risks -- which is something we might all favor nowadays.
now in fact, some of our transformative leaders in history have been introverts. i'll give you some examples. eleanor roosevelt, rosa parks, gandhi -- all these peopled described themselves as quiet and soft-spoken and even shy. and they all took the spotlight, even though every bone in their bodies was telling them not to. and this turns out to have a special power all its own, because people could feel that these leaders were at the helm, not because they enjoyed directing others and not out of the pleasure of being looked at; they were there because they had no choice, because they were driven to do what they thought was right.
good afternoon:
honorable judges,dear teachers and close friends.i’m very glad to stand here to share my speech with you.today i’m going to talk about dreams.
everyone has a dream.
my great pleasure to share my dream with you today.i have kept the dream in my mind for so long that whoever in the sun is able to live a happy life for ever.
martin luther king had a dream-and we can all recall his civil rights speech.phil knight had a dream-and now the whole world knows his nike slogan“just do it”!
i also have a dream,but not only a simple one.
Everyone has their own dreams, I have a dream that many, many, for example, grew up to be an inventor, a lawyer, to be a artist, to be a doctor... . My biggest dream is to become an inventor, because the inventor can for mankind a lot of new products. If I am the inventor, I have invented a magic pen, it can according to your need to change color, or in a timely manner when you write a typo prompt you to correct, or when you are drawing can draw what we desire. I want to invent a robot trash can, if people littering, it will prompt you don't throw garbage in disorder, so, our city will become clean and tidy. I will invent a time door, let the children back to ancient times, to see the dinosaurs, uncover the extinction of dinosaurs. I will invent a brooch, when you put it in your chest, can think what you can do, such as you want on the stage, show elegant appearance, can become artists; Do you want to heal sickness, for people can become angels; You want to help people engage in a lawsuit.
i'm talking about your coworkers and your spouses and your children and the person sitting next to you right now -- all of them subject to this bias that is pretty deep and real in our society. we all internalize it from a very early age without even having a language for what we're doing.
now to see the bias clearly you need to understand what introversion is. it's different from being shy. shyness is about fear of social judgment. introversion is more about, how do you respond to stimulation, including social stimulation. so extroverts really crave large amounts of stimulation, whereas introverts feel at their most alive and their most switched-on and their most capable when they're in quieter, more low-key environments. not all the time -- these things aren't absolute -- but a lot of the time. so the key then to maximizing our talents is for us all to put ourselves in the zone of stimulation that is right for us.
but now here's where the bias comes in. our most important institutions, our schools and our workplaces, they are designed mostly for extroverts and for extroverts' need for lots of stimulation. and also we have this belief system right now that i call the new groupthink, which holds that all creativity and all productivity comes from a very oddly gregarious place.
so if you picture the typical classroom nowadays: when i was going to school, we sat in rows. we sat in rows of desks like this, and we did most of our work pretty autonomously. but nowadays, your typical classroom has pods of desks -- four or five or six or seven kids all facing each other. and kids are working in countless group assignments. even in subjects like math and creative writing, which you think would depend on solo flights of thought, kids are now expected to act as committee members. and for the kids who prefer to go off by themselves or just to work alone, those kids are seen as outliers often or, worse, as problem cases. and the vast majority of teachers reports believing that the ideal student is an extrovert as opposed to an introvert, even though introverts actually get better grades and are more knowledgeable, according to research. (laughter)
