and what i'm saying is that culturally we need a much better balance. we need more of a yin and yang between these two types. this is especially important when it comes to creativity and to productivity, because when psychologists look at the lives of the most creative people, what they find are people who are very good at exchanging ideas and advancing ideas, but who also have a serious streak of introversion in them.
and this is because solitude is a crucial ingredient often to creativity. so darwin, he took long walks alone in the woods and emphatically turned down dinner party invitations. theodor geisel, better known as dr. seuss, he dreamed up many of his amazing creations in a lonely bell tower office that he had in the back of his house in la jolla, california. and he was actually afraid to meet the young children who read his books for fear that they were expecting him this kind of jolly santa claus-like figure and would be disappointed with his more reserved persona. steve wozniak invented the first apple computer sitting alone in his cubical in hewlett-packard where he was working at the time. and he says that he never would have become such an expert in the first place had he not been too introverted to leave the house when he was growing up.
this is no surprise though if you look at the insights of contemporary psychology. it turns out that we can't even be in a group of people without instinctively mirroring, mimicking their opinions. even about seemingly personal and visceral things like who you're attracted to, you will start aping the beliefs of the people around you without even realizing that that's what you're doing.

"We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite..."
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it. We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just as a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the remainder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will affect it. Each day brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our business, if we only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.

Duanwu Festival is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. It is also known as the Double Fifth.It has since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts of East Asia as well. In the West, its commonly known as Dragon Boat Festival.
The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear, but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan of the Warring States Period. He committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government. The local people, knowing him to be a good man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fish so they would not eat Qus body. They also sat on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved dragon head on the boats prow(船头).
In the early years of the Chinese Republic, Duan Wu was also celebrated as "Poets Day," due to Qu Yuans status as Chinas first poet of personal renown(名声名望).
Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings called the food originally intended to feed the fish and race dragon boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.

good morning ladies and gentlemen. today i’m very glad to be here with youto share my stories and opinions about reading. i love reading from the bottomof my heart. and i do learn a lot from books. i know the wonderful stories ofgreat heroes in history, secrets of nature, mysteries of ufo and our universe.to me , books are like a faithful friend, always around me , giving me enjoymentand wisdom.
i remember when i was in primary school, ten or eleven years old, my fatherborrowed some books from the library in his school. those were among thegreatest works of the world, including abrabian nights、the legend ofdeification, journey to the west, and the romance of the three kingdoms. thesebooks were all written in ancient chinese characters but i tried to read theheavy books and were deeply attracted. from then on, i spared every minute toread whatever i could get. whenever i got a new book, i kept reading until ifinished it despite time and place. i read books even in class or just a fewminutes before the exams. in my mind, there is always an unforgettable scene:lying in bed, nervous but excited, my friend and i read a book together in theweak light of a flashlight , with a quilt on us, in order not to be blamed byparents. all my classmates thought i was crazy and gave me a nickname“bookworm”. so you can understand why i got my eyes shortsighted.
till now, i still like reading as i used to. and i’m very pleased to seethat my ten-year-old son loves reading just like me. i have bought him manybooks. whenever you come into my home, you can find books in every corner. butthe place where my son and i enjoy reading most is in the toilet. so it oftenhappens in the morning: one is in the toilet reading something comfortably,while another walking outside , shouting. for my age, i like to read magazinesor short stories to get relaxation as well as inspiration.
today we live in a world of prosperity. never before have we faced so manytemptation from the outside world. never before have we had so many chances toenjoy our lives. we drive rather than walking; we go online to chat with peoplewe’ve never met before instead of talking to friends around us. but there’salways something that cannot be replaced and forgotten., such as books. so iwill allow myself to continue the journey in the ocean of books until the veryend of my life.
finally, i’d like to end my speech with a great philosopher, writer andthinker, francis bacon’s famous saying: reading makes a full man. studies servefor delight, for ornament, and for ability.
thank you very much.

Hello everyone！
i am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
five score years ago， a great american， in whose symbolic shadow we stand today， signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
but one hundred years later， the negro still is not free. one hundred years later， the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later， the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later， the negro is still languished in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. and so we＇ve come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
in a sense we＇ve come to our nation＇s capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence， they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men， yes， black men as well as white men， would be guaranteed the ＂unalienable rights＂ of ＂life， liberty and the pursuit of happiness.＂ it is obvious today that america has defaulted on this promissory note， insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. instead of honoring this sacred obligation， america has given the negro people a bad check， a check which has come back marked ＂insufficient funds.＂
Thank you！

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Today I want to talk with you.Yes,just talking,not stiff speaking.
My topic is “friendship”.But,at first ,I want to talk with you about love.Many of us have vision it in college.The special feeling in the memory of the four years is always pure and beautiful.
You may have asked what the “love”is on earth? In my opinion, Love is a sense of responsibility!Known to care for others, and this feeling, no matter what the result is ,must be a life-long memorable event.
My friends often consult me about their emotional problems.And they spend too much time on their lover.Naturally,they igored their friends.
I have received a message from one of my good friends.She said: “ if A is equals to 1 ,B is equals to 2,C is epuals to 3,and so on..
Then L+O+V+E=54,but F+R+I+E+N+D+S+H+I+P=108!
So friendship is twice stronger than love!” Now I’d love to share my experience with all of you.
Last summer vocation,I had a car accident,and had to be in hospital,I felt boring and painful,because I could do nothing but stay in bed. It’s my friends who came to see me ,chatted with me ,encouraged me, helped me get through the hardtime.
It is a common saying that love is a lamp, while friendship is the shadow. When the lamp is off,you will find the shadow everywhere. Friend is who can give you strength at last.
Finally let's pray together now ,that one day, all of us could find the person we want to find, and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives. Let's pray the flower of friendship between our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts. That’s all .Thank you!

There are failures and there are Failures, but the differences between bankruptcy and financial diminishment, divorce and marital strife, spiritual crisis and anomie are distinctions of degree, not kind. And they are connected. Woe in one sphere strains the seams of others. It's not pretty. And that's why failure is something you wouldn't wish on your least agreeable relative.
Or would you?
A theory is gaining momentum that looks at failure differently. Failure, it says, is at worst a mixed blessing: It hurts, but can pay off in the form of learning and growth and wisdom. Some psychologists, like the University of Virginia's Jonathan Haidt, go even further, arguing that adversity, setbacks, and even trauma may actually be necessary for people to be happy, successful, and fulfilled. "Post-traumatic growth," it's sometimes called. Its observers are building a solid foundation under the anecdotes about wildly successful people who credit their accomplishments to earlier failures that pushed them to the edge of the abyss.
We do know that learning is error-driven—probably as a result of the brain trying to be efficient. Failures grab our attention. So many things happen the way we expect them to that mistakes register disproportionately. We're forced to integrate that new information. Researchers have found that the more wildly wrong our prediction was, the quicker we learn. The brain, you might say, feeds on failure. We are acutely sensitive to negative feedback, and this "negativity bias" drives learning, at least from teenagehood on up.

now of course, this does not mean that we should all stop collaborating -- and case in point, is steve wozniak famously coming together with steve jobs to start apple computer -- but it does mean that solitude matters and that for some people it is the air that they breathe. and in fact, we have known for centuries about the transcendent power of solitude. it's only recently that we've strangely begun to forget it. if you look at most of the world's major religions, you will find seekers -- moses, jesus, buddha, muhammad -- seekers who are going off by themselves alone to the wilderness where they then have profound epiphanies and revelations that they then bring back to the rest of the community. so no wilderness, no revelations.
this is no surprise though if you look at the insights of contemporary psychology. it turns out that we can't even be in a group of people without instinctively mirroring, mimicking their opinions. even about seemingly personal and visceral things like who you're attracted to, you will start aping the beliefs of the people around you without even realizing that that's what you're doing.
and groups famously follow the opinions of the most dominant or charismatic person in the room, even though there's zero correlation between being the best talker and having the best ideas -- i mean zero. so ... (laughter) you might be following the person with the best ideas, but you might not. and do you really want to leave it up to chance? much better for everybody to go off by themselves, generate their own ideas freed from the distortions of group dynamics, and then come together as a team to talk them through in a well-managed environment and take it from there.

the east and the west, let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
kipling said:“east is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” but now, a century later, they have met.
they have met in business. they have met in education. they have met in the arts. some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but i believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. we can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. we can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and ma-ki-ng it our own.
i love beijing and hennan opera because it always reminds me of who i am. but i am also a fan of pop music, especially english songs. so i have combined eastern melody with western language. it is called western henna opera.
when two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other. when this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the(customs of another culture. then there are certain things some people may not like. to this, i will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it. to learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge. before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures. at present, they may run in different courses. but eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.
right now, i can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow! thank you!
让我们共同感受东西方的融合
吉卜林说过:东方是东方，西方是西方，二者永不相聚。但是一个世纪后的今天，东西方相汇了! 它们相聚在经济领域，它们相聚在教育领域，它们相聚在艺术的殿堂。有人争论说：这种融合需要我们在东方和西方之间做出选择，但我却坚信最美好的未来在于东方和西方创造性的融合。我们可以将西方的思想，观念和技术变为我们自己所用的东西。
我喜爱京剧和河南豫剧，因为它们经常使我想起自己是谁。但我也热衷于流行音乐，特别是英文歌曲。于是我将东方的旋律和西方的语言结合到了一起，它叫做西方版的河南豫剧。
当两种文化相结合的时候，也许一方的文化中的.某些东西不适应另一方的传统文化。当此种情况出现时，我们需要试着理解并接受另一种文化中的风俗习惯。然而，也许有些东西你并不喜欢，对于此，我可以说，如果你不喜欢它，请试着去容忍它。当两种文化融合的时候，试着去容忍你个人不喜欢的东西是一种美德。
2025英语演讲范文 篇12
Let's take steps to banish some of the most common negative thoughts manyof us repeat to ourselves. Being in a negative space is harmful to our overallwell-being, because what you dwell on can easily become self fulfilling if youdon't change your mindset.
1.I'm not good enough.
This type of negative thought that can apply to many categories. Maybe youdon't think you're a good enough mother or good at a sport. Even if you findyourself lacking in something, there's no need to keep repeating it to yourself.The human brain is an incredible thing. Be inspired by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor,Harvard-trained neuroscientist who suffered a stroke that left her unable towalk, read, write, talk, or remember her previous life. Dr. Taylor took eightyears to recover and has since then written a best-selling book about herexperience and appeared on Oprah. Keep on working toward something, and watchthe leaps and bounds you'll make.
让我们一起行动起来，消灭那些我们经常告诉自己的消极想法吧!如果你不改变想法，而是一味地沉浸在消极的念头中，那么，我们的整个身心就会受到影响，因为“噩梦”也会成真。
我不够好。
这种消极想法有很多类型。比如你认为自己不是个称职的妈妈或不擅长运动。即使你真的发现了自己的弱点，也没必要对自己不断复述。人脑是神奇的。吉尔泰勒就是个激励的好典型，她是哈佛大学的神经系统学专家，中风后她就失去了行走、阅读、书写、交谈的能力了，甚至还失忆了。她花了八年的时间复原，用自己的经历写了畅销书，还上了奥普拉的节目。坚持做一件事，亲眼见证自己的变化。
2.No one cares about me.
To accurately say that your family and friends don't care about you wouldbe a very rare situation. Maybe you're being too negative and overlooking thegestures of love they show you. They don't even have to be big gestures, butit's the little things they do for you that count. And people may be reacting tothe energy you're putting out; perhaps you think they don't care about you soyou don't make any effort in your relationships. Start showing people you care,so they can show you back in kind. And if you don't have good relationships withthe people you know, what's stopping you from making new friends?
没人关心我。
家人朋友都不关心你，这种情况其实不太常见。可能你过于消极的想法使你忽略了他们对你表达的爱。他们甚至并不需要为你做什么惊天动地的大事，正是一些小事才真正打动人心。或者你觉得没人关心你，所以无需再经营人际关系，但其实也许人们只有在感知到你的付出后，才会对你进行回报;关心别人，别人才会关心你。如果你和周围人的关系处理不好，为何不结交些新朋友?
3.I really dislike this person.
If you dislike a person in your work or personal life, focusing on her badqualities is not going to make things better. You need to let go of yourassumptions about her and know that she is human too, which means she makesmistakes. Either you move on and stop thinking and talking about her, or learnto approach her or think about her in a positive manner. Focus on her goodqualities, and repeat them to yourself instead of honing in on the unpleasantthings.
我真的不喜欢这个人。
如果工作或生活中有你讨厌的人，只关注她的缺点有害无益。你需要放下对她的所有成见，告诉自己她也是个人，也有犯错的时候。要么就不再谈论她和想着她，要么学着去接近她，或想想她好的一面。多想想她的优点，不要再专注于让你不开心的事情。
4.Why is she better off?
Comparing yourself to someone else is never productive or positive. There'salways going to be someone who is younger, prettier, smarter, or richer thanyou. If you keep coveting what someone else has, then this may cause you to beresentful of them, which will open a whole other negative can of worms.Remember, what they don't have is your whole package. Be appreciative of whatyou have, because if you want to play the comparison game, remember that thereare people who are also worse off than you are.
为什么她比我好?
和别人比较永远不是有效率和积极的表现。总有比你年轻，漂亮，聪明，富有的人。如果你始终关注别人拥有什么，会带来你对他们的恨意，随即带来更多消极的想法。记住，你所拥有的也是他们所没有的。珍惜你所拥有的东西，如果真的想和别人比较，也别忘了总有比你差的人。
5.I'll never reach my goal.
If you think you're not going to be able "get there," think again. Thereare many people who are worse off and have overcome bigger obstacles than whatyou are facing. Take, for example, Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius, an amputeewho overcame his handicap to compete in the Olympics against his able-bodiedpeers. Everything is within your reach as long as you work hard and have a apositive attitude.
我永远无法达到目标。
如果你认为自己达不到，再想想。比你差的人比比皆是，他们遇到的困难也比你的更大。比如，奥运会短跑选手刀锋战士奥斯卡·皮斯托利斯，一个被截肢的运动员，战胜了自己的阻碍，在其他健壮的对手中脱颖而出赢得了奥运会的冠军。只要你努力付出，有着积极的信念，任何事都能够做到。
