There is a big tree in the forest. Crows live in the tree.
There is a hole under the tree. There is a fox in the hole.
One day, the crow took a piece of meat and stood on the tree to rest. Thefox saw it.
The fox was greedy for the meat from the crow.
The fox could not get it under the tree because the crow had meat in itsmouth on the branch.
The coveting of meat made the fox unwilling to give up easily.
He turned his eyes and said, "Dear crow, how are you?" the crow did notanswer.
The fox had to smile and say, "Dear crow, how is your child?" the crowlooked at the fox, but did not answer.
The fox wagged his tail and spoke for the third time: "Dear crow, yourfeathers are so beautiful. Sparrow is far from you.
Your voice is very good. Everyone loves to hear you sing. Would you like tosing a few words? "The crow was very proud when he heard this: he said I have agood voice, and the only one who loves to hear me sing is you, the fox, so hesang happily.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the meat fell from his mouth.
The fox took the meat and went into the hole, leaving only the crows to"sing" there.
After being cheated of the meat by the fox, the crow stood on the branchand scolded for three days and three nights.
Since then, crows are very wary of foxes, afraid of being cheatedagain.
One day, the crow found a piece of meat. It took the meat in its mouth andstopped on the branch to rest.
He was very alert. He looked left and right for fear that the meat would becheated by the sly fox again.
At this time, the fox is humming a little song in the walk, smelling thesmell of meat, followed the fragrance.
After a while, he came to the tree where the crow stopped.
When the fox saw that it was a crow, he was very happy. He thought tohimself: This crow is very stupid. Last time he said that his singing was good,he cheated the meat away.
It looks like another piece of meat is coming this time.
Seeing that it was a fox, the crow immediately hung the meat on the branchand asked warily, "brother fox, I havent seen you for a long time. What are youdoing this time?"
The fox said calmly, "its nothing more than to admit the mistake with thebrother crow."
The crow said angrily, "brother fox, dont be hurt!"
The fox pretended to be a little sad and said, "brother crow, last time Imsorry for you. I lied to you because I was wrong. I deserve to die! This time,you can do whatever you want to do to me!"
The crow said, "then you will return the meat you cheated me lasttime."
When the fox heard this, he was very angry and forced to bear the anger inhis heart and said: "brother crow, I have eaten the meat last time.
I know a place where there is a lot of meat. Its not a long way. I have nostrength. You give me your piece of meat to eat. When I have strength, I willtake two back to you. "
The crow listened happily and said, "well, Ill give you the meat." Then hetook the meat off the branch and gave it to the fox.
The fox ate the meat and said to the crow, "wait, Ill get the meat foryou." With that, the fox left in a hurry.
After a long time, the crow didnt see the fox come back, just suddenlyrealized that he had been cheated again.

Third, I want to research minerals to helpthe people on the earth. Some minerals are very rare on the earth, but I canfind more on the moon.

I will eat more healthy food, like rice, vegetablesand fruits. And I will eat less unhealthy food, such as candies and snacks. Ialso need do e_ercise to be stronger and thinner. At last, I can help othersfrom now on. I can help teachers clean the classroom. When the classmates havesomething they don’t know, I can tell them. I can help my parents too; I will domore things by myself. I believe my dream can come true when I grow up. When Ibecome the astronaut, I can also take you to the moon, do you like it? Thankyou.
一只狐狸曾经看到过乌鸦飞着一片奶酪用嘴叼着和解决靠在树枝上。“那是我的,因为我是一只狐狸说:“Reynard大师,他走到山脚下的那棵树。“你好,我的主人乌鸦,”他大声地说。“你正在今天怎么光滑;你的羽毛,照亮您的眼睛。我确信你的声音必须超越其他的禽类,就像你的图所做的事物,让我听听但一首歌从您让我问你Birds.女王的乌鸦举起她的头,开始人才学她的努力,但是这一刻她张开嘴一块乳酪倒在地上,却被抢购一空所掌握的狐狸。”所做的,”他说。”那个我所想要的东西。换你的奶酪,我要给你一个忠告的未来。”“不要相信献媚者
A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settleon a branch of a tree. ‘That’s for me, as I am a Fox,’ said Master Reynard, andhe walked up to the foot of the tree. ‘Good-day, Mistress Crow,’ he cried. ‘Howwell you are looking to-day: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. Ifeel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does;let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.’The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she openedher mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up byMaster Fox. ‘That will do,’ said he. ‘That was all I wanted. In exchange foryour cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future .’Do not trustflatterers.
One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy withthe
meat in his mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so heswallowed
and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the foxsaid to
the crow, the crow just kept silent. Until the fox thought highly of thecrow’s
beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing. Assoon as
the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into hishole.
有一天,一只乌鸦嘴里叼着一片肉，非常高兴的站在树枝上自己的窝旁。这时候，一只狐狸看见了，馋得直流口水，非常想得到那片肉。但是，无论狐狸说什么，乌鸦就是不理睬狐狸。最后，狐狸便赞美乌鸦的嗓音美，并请求乌鸦唱几句让他欣赏。乌鸦听了狐狸的奉承话得意极了，就真的唱起歌来。没想到，它一开口肉就掉了下来，狐狸叼起肉钻回了自己的洞。
It is human nature that all of us should be fond of beauty. Everybody was born with a heart for beauty.
Today in China,with the rising of our living standard, people's requirement of beauty has been heightened accordingly. Some people spare no money or energy on beautiful clothes, fashionable hair styles,the decoration of their houses and even the improvement of their looks. But it seems to me,all these are more or less confined to the beauty in appearance,or rather,the outward beauty.
In my opinion,we shouldn't only pay attention to beautiful appearance and neglect the beautification of the mind and what we are after should be the perfect unity of the outward beauty and the inner beauty. As we all know,so far as objects and animals are concerned,there is only beautiful appearance to be mentioned, but to us humanbeings, although the outward beauty really matters, the inner beauty is much more important. This was confirmed by a famous Russian writer in words much like this: "A person is not lovely for being beautiful but beautiful for being lovely. "
Here, I'd like to quote two typical instances and I'm sure, my dear friends,from them you'll find out what real beauty is.
Recently I learned from the radio an unpleasant incident about a well known singer. She is very charming with a sweet beautiful voice and very famous for singing the song."Devotion of Love". Not long ago,she was invited to Zhejiang Province to give performance. The momentshe was to appear on the stage,she suddenly asked for more reward. Worse still,after her request was satisfied, she didn't begin to sing at once. Instead,she took her time to count all the money piece by piece. Thus she kept the audience waiting for half an hour. So when she at last showed up and started to sing "Devotion of Love",a man rose up from his seat and shouted at her,"You don't have any devotion of love. You are not qualified to sing this song ! "Hearing this, the singer stopped singing and began to shout abuses with her finger pointed at the man. At this time the whole audience burst into an uproar.
How disappointed her keen listeners were when they learned this! It is the singer herself who spoiled her beautiful image in the eyes of others.
Now, I'm coming to another true story. It's about a poor, ordinary looking old woman. She was a widow without any children, living barely from hand to mouth by picking odds and ends from rubbish heaps. However,she took in more than ten homeless orphans successively and managed to bring them up. Every day she labored from morning till night. In order to earn as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a hospital regularly to sell her blood. She got so weak for the loss of blood that she sometimes fell in a faint on her way home.
When asked why she chose to burden herself with so many children,she smiled and simply answered,"Oh,I love children and I like to have their company. "
Though the old woman was poor materially, she was full of affection and rich in spirit. She was loved dearly by her children. She was also highly appreciated by the local government, and truly respected by people in her community.
Maybe you can't help wondering, "What makes that ordinary woman so extraordinary?" It is nothing else but her inner beauty, her true devotion of love without any thought of rewarding. What a sharp contrast there is between the great woman and the selfish singer
So,to answer the question "What is real beauty?", I declare definitely,it is the beauty lying in one's heart of hearts and embodied in his actions and deeds,that is,the inner heauty!
since i entered college i have felt a great burden off my mind and i justwant to relax. so do my classmates. we enjoy playing cards and are very skillfulat it. we seldom work on our lessons unless there is an examination. then wework under pressure. i know it is not good， but what i lack is self control. matof us know it is a problem， and it is time we did something about it.
as youth， we are in the prime of our life. we should make good use of ourgolden time. the teachers take pains to teach us every day so that we canacquire more knowledge. we should not fail their expectations. i should not restcontent with what i have done. entering cnllege is just a step in the thresholdof the palace of knowledge. the road is long. the modern age needs the welleducated. the future world is highly competitive. if we idle away our time whileyoung wo shall regret it in vain when we are did.
from now on i will concentrate all my energy on my studies as to qualifymyself as a talent in the 21st century. time and tide wait for no man. i shouldvalue my time. what about you， my friend?
Can this dream come true?
A few years ago, the suZhou river was polluted. But now, with the help of city governments, it becomes clean. So we should save and protect the water.
I do believe ‘house by limpid water’ will come true. In Shanghai the water will become more limpid, the sky more blue, the air more fresh, and the people more healthy. We are sure to have a better city and a better life tomorrow! Let’s study hard and work hard, and wait to enjoy ‘house by limpid water’!
thank you.
Although winter means cold weather, I love it all the same. I think winteris a beautiful season, especially when it snows. Snowflakes fall down naughtily.They fall on branches of trees, on roofs of houses and on wheat fields. Soon thewhole earth will be dressed in white. Everything is shining in the sun. Everytime it snows, I will remember an old saying, "Winter has come, can spring befar away?"
This summer holiday, I visited toBeijingwith my aunt. We visited to manyfamous places, such as Tian’anMen Square, theImperialPalace, theSummerPalace,the Great Wall and so on. Before that, I just saw them on TV, but this summerholiday they were all in front of my eyes. I was so exciting. Among them, I liketheSummerPalacethe most, because it’s so amazing and the scenery is verybeautiful. Besides,Beijingis a modern city. There are many tall buildings. Ilike this city very much and I hope I can visit there again.
As we all knoweverybody had his/her own dream.
Some dreamed to be a scientistothers had the dream becoming a star or evena president. HoweverI was dreaming to be a teacher when I was a little youngboy. As far as I knewteachers were respected by people and they also had a highstate of society as well as a farewell salary. Teachers were an honored careeralthough they were hard working.
All in all I dreamed to be a teacher no matter what problem I met and howdifficult the situation was.
众所周知，每个人都有自己的梦想。
有些人梦想成为一名科学家，有些人梦想成为明星甚至总统。然而，当我还是个小男孩的时候，我梦想着成为一名教师。据我所知，每个人都受到人们的尊敬，他们的社会地位也很高，还有一份告别工资。教师是一项光荣的职业，尽管他们很努力。
总之，我梦想成为一名教师，无论我遇到什么问题，无论情况多么困难。
Yesterday was Saturday. It should be a leisurely day, but I was busyyesterday. I got up at eight o'clock and then I ate breakfast. After breakfast,my mother and I went to the downtown to do some shopping. We went to thedepartmen store, because my mother wanted to buy clothes for my father. And thenwe went to supermarket. I like going to supermaket because I can buy many snacksthere. However, when we were in supermarket, my father called my mothersuddenly. My aunt visited us! Then, we just bought some foods and went home by ataxi. When we got home, it was already four o'clock. Therefore, we had tostarted to prepare for the dinner. My aunt said that she would stay in my homefor several days. I was very happy,because I like to stay with my aunt and I didnot see her for a long time. Although I was busy yesterday, I was veryhappy.
昨天是星期六，应该是悠闲的一天，但是昨天我很忙。我八点起床然后吃早餐。吃完早餐，我妈妈和我就到镇上购物。我们去了百货商店，因为我妈妈想给爸爸买衣服。接着我们就去了超市。我喜欢逛超市，因为我可以在那里买很多零食。但是，当我们在超市的时候，爸爸突然打电话给妈妈说姑姑来看我们。然后，我们只买了一些晚餐的食物就打的回家了。当我们到家的时候已经将近四点了。所以我们不得不开始准备晚饭了。我姑姑说她会在我家待几天。我很高兴，因为我喜欢和姑姑待在一起，而且我很久没见她了。尽管昨天很忙，但是我还是很高兴。
One day, a crow finds a piece of meat ,She picks it up in her mouth andflies to a big tree.When she is just going to eat the meat,a fox sees her. Thefox comes to the tree and stands under the tree. He looks at the meat and wantsto eat it very much.
He says to the crow," how pretty you are! You are the prettytiest bird intheworld. all the animals like you." The crow is very pleased by this words,then the fox speaks again,"I can see your beautiful face, but I can't hear yourbeautiful voice. Can you sing a song for me?"
This makes the crow very happy. She opens her mouth and sings a song. whenshe opens her mouth, she drops the meat the fox picks up the meat and goesaway.
Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of abook, whose pages are infinite”. I don?t know who wrote these words, but I?vealways liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it tobe. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reapa good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. Toanswer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youthis not a time of life, it?s a state of mind. It?s not a matter of rosy cheeks,red lips or supple knees. It?s the matter of the will. It?s the freshness of thedeep spring 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 enthusiasmwrinkles the soul . Worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns thespirit 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 .
Apoet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wildflower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Severaldays ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I?d liketo share it with all of you. Let?s show our right palms. We can see three linesthat show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. Whatabout yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let?smake a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tellme.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can gobetter itself. Don?t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From thepast, we?ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We?ve learnt thatwe can?t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn?tmean you don?t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way.Failure doesn?t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of thefirst chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothingwe do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what wegive to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let?s be theowners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”
In last summer vacation ,I went to Beijing with my family.

Second.we went to the summer palace ,where the previous emporers spentsummer in the old days.Third, we went to the Forbidden City .
Finally ,we went to Wangfujing Street where we tasted much deliciousfood.
In a word, we had a great time during the vacation and we leanred a lotfrom this tour.

As we know,Shanghai is a famous financial centre of China.It is also agreat place for holiday.This summer holiday,I went to Shanghai with myfamilies.
We went there by high-speed train.We had a lot of fun there.We saw theOriental Pearl Tower.We took photos of animals in Shanghai wildlife Park.
We went to the Bund.It is known as the "name card" of Shanghai.We ate thefamous Nanshan Crab Soup Bun.We also visited the Shanghai Old City God'sTemple.
We enjoyed ourselves very much.How wonderful the trip is.I'll never forgetit.
I'm going to Beijing tomorrow,so now I feel very happy.I will go there byplane and stay there for 10 days.
This is my first time to go to Beijing,not only the Olympic Games iscoming,but also I can learn more knowledges about the Olympic Games.
And it is a great chance for me to communicate with foreigners,so I won'tmiss it.
Therefore,now I want to say:Beijing,I'm coming!
In winter, not spring flowers, the scenery pleasant, is not so scorchingsummer, thunder and lightning; Not so fruitful, autumn leaves fly: but it bringsus a flying snowflakes.
In the morning, I opened the Windows look: snowflakes slowly float, likephoto, such as catkin, like QingYouYou goose feather, like dandelion seeds,there are endless leisure, and just like the beautiful YinDie dance in thecourtyard, also seems to be a group of white elf, floating in the air, spinning,finally slowly fell on the ground, into numerous small water droplets ofdiamond.
Under the deck of snow, the earth became a snow-white, vanity jade build bylaying bricks or stones in the world. Nearby, some dead branches of the treescovered with a layer of fluffy, soft snow at the end of the son. While thesummer and winter evergreen trees, covered with a bead pearly snow to seed. Hitsthe trees under the white foil as one by one, beautiful girl. The wind blows,the branches gently shaking, the silver light flashing to seed, snowsnow son, at the end of the float down from the trees and leaves. Looked at thebeautiful snow, I can't help but sigh: "like night of spring breeze comessuddenly, thousands of critics, pear tree to open!"
Looked at the snow outside the window, I involuntarily stretch out hisarms, outside the window a little a few times, laid the palm of your hand, onlylight water lines. I stretched out a helping hand to the sky, and to god for afew snow flower, god seems to heart, after a while, a few naughty snow girl isslipped from my hand up into my mouth. The snow that I closed my eyes thenexperience the taste of cool and refreshing slowly into my heart.
As we all know，the environmemt around us is getting worse andworse .In some places，we can't see fish swimming in the river or trees on thehills. Some people even have no clean water to drink.
So I think we must do something to protect the environment. But what can wedo?How to protect our environmemt ?For example，we can go to school on foot or bybike .
we can use shopping baskets not plastic bags when we go shopping，and we canuse both sides of the paper when we write .In a word，if everyone pays moreattention to our environment ，there will be less pollution and our life will bebetter.
“There is only one earth”，I hope everyone will protect our environmentwell.
众所周知，我们周围的环境越来越差，在一些地方，我们看不见鱼在河里游泳或在山上爬树。有些人甚至没有干净的水喝。
所以我认为我们必须做些什么来保护环境。但是我们能做什么呢?如何保护我们的环境?例如，我们可以步行上学，也可以骑自行车上学。
当我们购物时，我们可以使用购物篮而不是塑料袋，当我们写字时，我们可以使用纸的两面。总之，如果每个人都更加关注我们的环境，就会减少污染，我们的生活会更好。
“只有一个地球”，我希望每个人都能很好地保护我们的环境。
This summer vacation,I went to Hainan with my mom.We went to there byair.
And we bought a lot of local friut there.I often swam in the sea and I playbeach vollyball with my mom.
It was really fun!But I can not eat too much sea food ,because I do notlike it.
We were very happy in Hainan!
Today, I had a rich and meaningful day. My mother opened a bakery. She wasvery kind-hearted. She promised the children in the orphanage to bake for themtoday. My mother asked me to help. When we baked all the bread, we brought allof them to the orphanage. This was the first time I went to orphanage. I thoughtI couldn’t forget the smile on the children’s face when they saw us. They wereas happy as birds. They accepted the bread just as a gift from the heaven.Compared with them, I felt that I was so happy. Thanks to my parents that I canhave such happy life. I loved them. I will treasure more my life in thefuture.
今天，我过了充实而有意义的一天。我妈妈开了一家面包店。她很善良。她答应今天给孤儿院的孩子做面包。她叫我去帮她。我们烤好面包后，我们就把所有的面包带给孤儿院的小孩子们。这是我第一次去孤儿院。我觉得我永远都无法忘记当孩子们见到我们时脸上露出来的微笑。他们开心得就像快乐的小鸟。他们拿过面包的样子就像是天赐的礼物一样。与他们相比，我觉得我真是太幸福了。对亏了我的父母，我才能拥有这样幸福的生活。我爱他们。我以后更珍惜我的生活。
美联储主席伯克南普林斯顿大学毕业典礼演讲稿中英双语对照：
It's nice to be back at Princeton. I find it difficult to believe that it's been almost 11 years since I departed these halls for Washington. I wrote recently to inquire about the status of my leave from the university, and the letter I got back began, "Regrettably, Princeton receives many more qualified applicants for faculty positions than we can accommodate."重返普林斯顿感觉不错，很难相信，我离开校园赴华盛顿已经11年了。近期我向校方询问了我的教职问题，回信称：“很遗憾，普林斯顿收到很多更有才华的学者的求职信，而教职有限。”
I'll extend my best wishes to the seniors later, but first I want to congratulate the parents and families here. As a parent myself, I know that putting your kid through college these days is no walk in the park. Some years ago I had a colleague who sent three kids through Princeton even though neither he nor his wife attended this university. He and his spouse were very proud of that accomplishment, as they should have been. But my colleague also used to say that, from a financial perspective, the experience was like buying a new Cadillac every year and then driving it off a cliff. I should say that he always added that he would do it all over again in a minute. So, well done, moms, dads, and families.我将在稍后献上对毕业生的最美好祝愿，首先我要恭喜在座的家长们。作为父母，我知道这年头供孩子读完大学不容易，数年前，我的一个同事有3个孩子毕业于普林斯顿，尽管他们夫妻都不毕业于此，但我的同事常说，从财政角度讲，这如同每年买辆卡迪拉克，然后让车坠崖。他总会补充说，他会毫不犹豫的选择重新来过。所以，感谢你们的工作，母亲们，父亲们，及家人们。
This is indeed an impressive and appropriate setting for a commencement. I am sure that, from this lectern, any number of distinguished spiritual leaders have ruminated on the lessons of the Ten Commandments. I don't have that kind of confidence, and, anyway, coveting your neighbor's ox or donkey is not the problem it used to be, so I thought I would use my few minutes today to make Ten Suggestions, or maybe just Ten Observations, about the world and your lives after Princeton. Please note, these points have nothing whatsoever to do with interest rates. My qualification for making such suggestions, or observations, besides having kindly been invited to speak today by President Tilghman, is the same as the reason that your obnoxious brother or sister got to go to bed later--I am older than you. All of what follows has been road-tested in real-life situations, but past performance is no guarantee of future results.这确实是做毕业典礼演讲的合适场合，我认为，在这一讲台上，每个精神导师都受到过“十诫”的教诲，我没有那样的信心，而且无论无何，觊觎邻居的驴牛已不是目前的问题，所以今年前几分钟我将提出“十个建议”，或称为对这个世界和你们毕业后的生活的十个观察。请注意，这十点与利率毫无关系。我之所以有资格提出这些建议和或观察，除了普林斯顿的善意邀请外，理由和你们讨厌的哥哥姐姐可以晚睡是一个道理：我比你们更老。以下内容均经受过生活的考验，但以往表现并不能确保未来的结果。
1. The poet Robert Burns once said something about the best-laid plans of mice and men ganging aft agley, whatever "agley" means. A more contemporary philosopher, Forrest Gump, said something similar about life and boxes of chocolates and not knowing what you are going to get. They were both right. Life is amazingly unpredictable; any 22-year-old who thinks he or she knows where they will be in 10 years, much less in 30, is simply lacking imagination. Look what happened to me: A dozen years ago I was minding my own business teaching Economics 101 in Alexander Hall and trying to think of good excuses for avoiding faculty meetings. Then I got a phone call... In case you are skeptical of Forrest Gump's insight, here's a concrete suggestion for each of the graduating seniors. Take a few minutes the first chance you get and talk to an alum participating in his or her 25th, or 30th, or 40th reunion--you know, somebody who was near the front of the P-rade. Ask them, back when they were graduating 25, 30, or 40 years ago, where they expected to be today. If you can get them to open up, they will tell you that today they are happy and satisfied in various measures, or not, and their personal stories will be filled with highs and lows and in-betweens. But, I am willing to bet, those life stories will in almost all cases be quite different, in large and small ways, from what they expected when they started out. This is a good thing, not a bad thing; who wants to know the end of a story that's only in its early chapters? Don't be afraid to let the drama play out.1、阿甘曾讲到人生和巧克力的相似性，你不知道下一块巧克力的味道。人生确实难以预料，任何一个认为知道其10年后情况的毕业生，更不同说三十年了，我只能说他或她缺乏想象力。看看我吧，12年前我一心教经济学入门课程，想着编造什么理由不参加教学会议，结果我接到了那个电话。有过你有机会与毕业25年、30年或40年的校友交谈，并使他们敞开心扉，他们将告诉你，他们对生活中哪些事满意或不满意，他们经历过的高潮和低谷。但我敢打赌，他们的人生故事将与预期相异。这是好事而不是坏事，谁想在故事的开篇就知道结局呢？
2. Does the fact that our lives are so influenced by chance and seemingly small decisions and actions mean that there is no point to planning, to striving? Not at all. Whatever life may have in store for you, each of you has a grand, lifelong project, and that is the development of yourself as a human being. Your family and friends and your time at Princeton have given you a good start. What will you do with it? Will you keep learning and thinking hard and critically about the most important questions? Will you become an emotionally stronger person, more generous, more loving, more ethical? Will you involve yourself actively and constructively in the world? Many things will happen in your lives, pleasant and not so pleasant, but, paraphrasing a Woodrow Wilson School adage from the time I was here, "Wherever you go, there you are." If you are not happy with yourself, even the loftiest achievements won't bring you much satisfaction.2、 是否人生偶然性之大的事实，意味着小的决定和行动无足轻重，不需要规划和奋斗呢？当然不是。无论未来人生如何，她将是一个宏大和漫长的项目，是你作为个人 的发展过程。你的家人、朋友和你在普林斯顿的时光已经为你造就了良好的开端，未来你会如何？你会不断学习、竭力思索、对至关重要的问题持批判态度吗？你会 成为情感上更强大、更大度、更有爱心、更道德的人吗？你会更积极的、更建设性的参与世事吗？你的人生会有很多故事，快乐的，及不太快乐的，如果你不为自己 感到快乐，就连最伟大的成就业也不会让你感到满足。
3. The concept of success leads me to consider so-called meritocracies and their implications. We have been taught that meritocratic institutions and societies are fair. Putting aside the reality that no system, including our own, is really entirely meritocratic, meritocracies may be fairer and more efficient than some alternatives. But fair in an absolute sense? Think about it. A meritocracy is a system in which the people who are the luckiest in their health and genetic endowment; luckiest in terms of family support, encouragement, and, probably, income; luckiest in their educational and career opportunities; and luckiest in so many other ways difficult to enumerate--these are the folks who reap the largest rewards. The only way for even a putative meritocracy to hope to pass ethical muster, to be considered fair, is if those who are the luckiest in all of those respects also have the greatest responsibility to work hard, to contribute to the betterment of the world, and to share their luck with others. As the Gospel of Luke says (and I am sure my rabbi will forgive me for quoting the New Testament in a good cause): "From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded" (Luke 12:48, New Revised Standard Version Bible). Kind of grading on the curve, you might say.3、 成功的概念促使我考虑所谓的精英主义及其含义。精英是在健康和基因上最幸运的人，他们在家庭支持、鼓励上，或在收入上也是最幸运的，他们在教育和职业机遇 上最幸运，他们在很多方面都最幸运，一般人难以复制。一个精英体制是否公平，要看这些精英是否有义务努力工作、致力于建设更好的世界，并与他人分享幸运。
4. Who is worthy of admiration? The admonition from Luke--which is shared by most ethical and philosophical traditions, by the way--helps with this question as well. Those most worthy of admiration are those who have made the best use of their advantages or, alternatively, coped most courageously with their adversities. I think most of us would agree that people who have, say, little formal schooling but labor honestly and diligently to help feed, clothe, and educate their families are deserving of greater respect--and help, if necessary--than many people who are superficially more successful. They're more fun to have a beer with, too. That's all that I know about sociology.4、谁值得尊重？是那些充分利用其优势，或勇敢面对逆境的人。我想我们会认同，那些虽然接受的正式教育不多，但诚实劳动、勤勉的为家人提供衣食和教育的人，相比更多表面上很成功的人，更值得尊重，和他们喝两杯是更有趣的事情。
5. Since I have covered what I know about sociology, I might as well say something about political science as well. In regard to politics, I have always liked Lily Tomlin's line, in paraphrase: "I try to be cynical, but I just can't keep up." We all feel that way sometime. Actually, having been in Washington now for almost 11 years, as I mentioned, I feel that way quite a bit. Ultimately, though, cynicism is a poor substitute for critical thought and constructive action. Sure, interests and money and ideology all matter, as you learned in political science. But my experience is that most of our politicians and policymakers are trying to do the right thing, according to their own views and consciences, most of the time. If you think that the bad or indifferent results that too often come out of Washington are due to base motives and bad intentions, you are giving politicians and policymakers way too much credit for being effective. Honest error in the face of complex and possibly intractable problems is a far more important source of bad results than are bad motives. For these reasons, the greatest forces in Washington are ideas, and people prepared to act on those ideas. Public service isn't easy. But, in the end, if you are inclined in that direction, it is a worthy and challenging pursuit.5、 提到政治，愤世嫉俗是批判性思考和建设性行动的更糟糕的替代品。当然，利益、金钱和意识形态都有影响力，如你在政治课上所学。但我的感受是大部分政界人士 都在寻求做正确的事情，大部分时候，这由他们的观点和意识决定。在复杂及难于处理的问题上所犯的诚实错误，更是糟糕结果的主要原因，而非不良动机。因此， 华盛顿最有影响的力量是观念和想法，人们基于这些观念去行动。公共服务并不轻松，如果你选择了这一道路，那是值得的，并颇具挑战性。
6. Having taken a stab at sociology and political science, let me wrap up economics while I'm at it. Economics is a highly sophisticated field of thought that is superb at explaining to policymakers precisely why the choices they made in the past were wrong. About the future, not so much. However, careful economic analysis does have one important benefit, which is that it can help kill ideas that are completely logically inconsistent or wildly at variance with the data. This insight covers at least 90 percent of proposed economic policies.6、经济学是颇具诡辩性的思维领域，她在解释决策者以往所犯错误方面显得很崇高，但在预测未来时，则不仅如此。然而，谨慎的经济分析确有重要益处，她能去除那些不合逻辑或与数据不符的想法，这对90%的经济政策建议有影响。
7. I'm not going to tell you that money doesn't matter, because you wouldn't believe me anyway. In fact, for too many people around the world, money is literally a life-or-death proposition. But if you are part of the lucky minority with the ability to choose, remember that money is a means, not an end. A career decision based only on money and not on love of the work or a desire to make a difference is a recipe for unhappiness.7、我不会告诉你们金钱无用，反正你们也不会听的。事实上，对全球很多人来说，金钱能够决定生存还是死亡。但如果你属于那些幸运得有能力进行抉择的少数人，请记住，金钱只是途径，而非最终目标。职业选择基于收入、而非热爱，或做出贡献的热情，是日后苦恼的根源。
8. Nobody likes to fail but failure is an essential part of life and of learning. If your uniform isn't dirty, you haven't been in the game.8、没有人希望失败，但失败是生活和学习的一部分。如果你衣衫整齐，你并没有进入比赛。
9. I spoke earlier about definitions of personal success in an unpredictable world. I hope that as you develop your own definition of success, you will be able to do so, if you wish, with a close companion on your journey. In making that choice, remember that physical beauty is evolution's way of assuring us that the other person doesn't have too many intestinal parasites. Don't get me wrong, I am all for beauty, romance, and sexual attraction--where would Hollywood and Madison Avenue be without them? But while important, those are not the only things to look for in a partner. The two of you will have a long trip together, I hope, and you will need each other's support and sympathy more times than you can count. Speaking as somebody who has been happily married for 35 years, I can't imagine any choice more consequential for a lifelong journey than the choice of a traveling companion.9、 我希望你们能够发展自身对成功的定义，在这一过程中，你们能够选择一位亲密的伴侣。在做出选择时，要记住外表美只是人类演变的一种方式，它使我们确信对方 没有肠道寄生虫。不要误解我，我也为美丽、浪漫和性所吸引，不然美国影视业和广告业怎么生存下去呢？但尽管重要，这些不是寻找人生伴侣时需要考虑的事 情。你们将共同走过人生旅程，需要对方的支持和关爱。作为已婚35年的人士，我想象不到比选择人生伴侣更重要的事情。
10. Call your mom and dad once in a while. A time will come when you will want your own grown-up, busy, hyper-successful children to call you. Also, remember who paid your tuition to Princeton.10、时不时的给父母去个电话。早晚有一天，你希望自己长大成人的、工作繁忙的、超级成功的孩子给你来个电话，再者，请记着谁供养你上的大学。
Those are my suggestions. They're probably worth exactly what you paid for them. But they come from someone who shares your affection for this great institution and who wishes you the best for the future.
Congratulations, graduates. Give 'em hell.最后，毕业生们，给他们点颜色看看。
I will have a trip by plane to Beijing with my parents this year.
First, we will visit the Tian’anmen Square, where we can watch theflag-rising and the beautiful sunrise.
Next, we will go to the Forbidden City and Summer Palace, where we learnabout Chinese culture. Then, we will visit the Great Wall.
Just as a proverb goes, ”He who never been to the Great Wall is not a tureman. “We will have a good time there.
One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy withthe
meat in his mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so heswallowed
and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the foxsaid to
the crow, the crow just kept silent. Until the fox thought highly of thecrow’s
beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing. Assoon as
the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into hishole.

impressed by our confidence. 大部分的人都想受人欢迎，但是并非每个人都能达到目标。受
Time waits for no one. If it flows away, it will never come to us again. Wecan't take charge of our time but we should know the importance of time andcherish time.
Yesterday has become the history. Nothing we can do to save it. Tomorrow isnot within our reach. We don’t know what will happen tomorrow. So the only thingwe can do is to cherish what we have today and fight for tomorrow. Victory onlybelongs to those who work very hard! Therefore, we should make full use oftoday, fighting for what we want.
In the morning, we will gather at the plaza and sing the national anthum.After taking the pledge, we will go back to class where lessons will soonbegan.
早晨，我们会聚集在广场并唱国歌。宣誓完后，我们就会回到教室，我们很快就要在那里上课。
After a few periods of classes, it’s recess! Recess is the time when we eatand play and go toilet. It’s the only time in school where all students wereenjoying school life. Too bad it’s only half an hour. After recess, we will goback to class where chucks of lessons start again.
上了几节课后，该休息了。休息时候是我们吃东西，玩耍和上厕所的时间。这是在学校唯一的所有学生都来享受学校生活的时间。不好的是只有半个小时。休息完后，我们会回到教室，那里是接下来要上一节又一节课的地方。
