　　now i think at this point it's important for me to say that i actually love extroverts. i always like to say some of my best friends are extroverts, including my beloved husband. and we all fall at different points, of course, along the introvert/extrovert spectrum. even carl jung, the psychologist who first popularized these terms, said that there's no such thing as a pure introvert or a pure extrovert. he said that such a man would be in a lunatic asylum, if he existed at all. and some people fall smack in the middle of the introvert/extrovert spectrum, and we call these people ambiverts. and i often think that they have the best of all worlds. but many of us do recognize ourselves as one type or the other.

　　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.

　　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.

　　now if all this is true, then why are we getting it so wrong? why are we setting up our schools this way and our workplaces? and why are we making these introverts feel so guilty about wanting to just go off by themselves some of the time? one answer lies deep in our cultural history. western societies, and in particular the u.s., have always favored the man of action over the man of contemplation and “man“ of contemplation. but in america's early days, we lived in what historians call a culture of character, where we still, at that point, valued people for their inner selves and their moral rectitude. and if you look at the self-help books from this era, they all had titles with things like “character, the grandest thing in the world.“ and they featured role models like abraham lincoln who was praised for being modest and unassuming. ralph waldo emerson called him “a man who does not offend by superiority.“

　　but then we hit the 20th century and we entered a new culture that historians call the culture of personality. what happened is we had evolved an agricultural economy to a world of big business. and so suddenly people are moving from small towns to the cities. and instead of working alongside people they've known all their lives, now they are having to prove themselves in a crowd of strangers. so, quite understandably, qualities like magnetism and charisma suddenly come to seem really important. and sure enough, the self-help books change to meet these new needs and they start to have names like “how to win friends and influence people.“ and they feature as their role models really great salesmen. so that's the world we're living in today. that's our cultural inheritance.

英語(yǔ)演講比賽即興演講范文 篇8

　　i have the answer to a question that we've all asked. the question is, why is it that the letter x represents the unknown? now i know we learned that in math class, but now it's everywhere in the culture -- the x prize, the x-files, project x, tedx. where'd that come from?

　　about six years ago i decided that i would learn arabic, which turns out to be a supremely logical language. to write a word or a phrase or a sentence in arabic is like crafting an equation, because every part is extremely precise and carries a lot of information. that's one of the reasons so much of what we've come to think of as western science and mathematics and engineering was really worked out in the first few centuries of the common era by the persians and the arabs and the turks.

　　this includes the little system in arabic called al-jebra. and al-jebr roughly translates to “the system for reconciling disparate parts.“ al-jebr finally came into english as algebra. one example among many.

　　the arabic texts containing this mathematical wisdom finally made their way to europe -- which is to say spain -- in the 11th and 12th centuries. and when they arrived there was tremendous interest in translating this wisdom into a european language.

　　but there were problems. one problem is there are some sounds in arabic that just don't make it through a european voice box without lots of practice. trust me on that one. also, those very sounds tend not to be represented by the characters that are available in european languages.

　　here's one of the culprits. this is the letter sheen, and it makes the sound we think of as sh -- “sh.“ it's also the very first letter of the word shalan, which means “something“ just like the the english word “something“ -- some undefined, unknown thing.

　　now in arabic, we can make this definite by adding the definite article “al.“ so this is al-shalan -- the unknown thing. and this is a word that appears throughout early mathematics, such as this 10th century derivation of proofs.

　　the problem for the medieval spanish scholars who were tasked with translating this material is that the letter sheen and the word shalan can't be rendered into spanish because spanish doesn't have that sh, that “sh“ sound. so by convention, they created a rule in which they borrowed the ck sound, “ck“ sound, from the classical greek in the form of the letter kai.

　　later when this material was translated into a common european language, which is to say latin, they simply replaced the greek kai with the latin x. and once that happened, once this material was in latin, it formed the basis for mathematics textbooks for almost 600 years.

　　but now we have the answer to our question. why is it that x is the unknown? x is the unknown because you can't say “sh“ in spanish. (laughter) and i thought that was worth sharing.

　　Failure is the mother of success. Sometimes people have to cope with many mistakes and failures in order to reach the successful finals. While others might succumb to failure, they tend to retreat and give in their efforts. Success often provides confidence and satisfaction, nevertheless failure companies with bitter, saddness, and suffering. It seems people have to learn through each experience, as success doesn't always falls from heaven.

　　I remembered I used to fail on my vocabury test when I was in high school. I had problem to memorize new words which got lloose each day. I almost decided to give up English, but was obliged to one of my neighbour classmates who kept on sending small sheet for me. In the end of the semester, I found I had finished my vocabulary book which became a work force in reading English. I then realized that a new word came and left our brains for several times. Nobody is born as genius for success. Success tends to arrive after a serial of trials and failures.

　　Of course, success brings confidence and victory. But, life is not always easy and comfortable. There are more difficulties than eases in the real life. It is likely that we have to face some failures ahead. Therefore, those who learn how to deal and endure failures will taste their success eventually.

　　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!

　　There are many students afraid of exam, that, after this I believe the exam for them, not of fear, but the challenge!

英語(yǔ)演講比賽即興演講范文 篇16

　　love is shapeless and priceless. we can blame nobody when captured by it. love can not be forced, nor can it be pretended. sympathy is not love, neither is gratitude. love must be generated from the heart, and expressed in actions. it can not be called love without passions and a deep longing from the bottom of the heart. there's no impassable gulf between family love and fraternal love. some family love may turn into friendship. at the same time, natural barriers doesn't exist either between fraternal love and amatory love. some friendship may develop into amatory love. the same is true with amatory love which may change into family love after a long time of mutual grinding and polishing.the closer the relationship, and the higher the expectations are, the more difficult it is to get along with each other. family love, fraternal love and amatory love are three main human feelings. if handled well, they can bring us extreme happiness, while handled improperly, will bring us great sufferings.

　　the present society is a world of dazzling money and dwindling human feeling contacts. most people hold a snobbish attitude. they only make friends with people of wealth and of high social status. just as zhen shiyen said in his expounding of the song “all good things must end” in a dream of the red mansions “while men with gold and silver by the chest, turn beggars scorned by all and dispossessed”.frankly speaking, however, if we regard money the first thing in whichever one of the three kinds of loves, it will depreciate and even become worthless.

　　From Walls to Bridges

　　I'm studying in a city famous for its walls. All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing sight of the city walls, silhouetted by the setting sun with gold and shining lines. With old, cracked bricks patched with lichen, the walls are weather-beaten guards, standing still for centuries in protecting the city.

　　Our ancestors liked to build walls. They built walls in Beijing, Xi'an, Nanjing and many other cities, and they built the Great Wall, which snakes through half of our country. They built walls to ward off enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has been maintained to this day as we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public. I grew up at the foot of the city walls, and I've loved them since my childhood. For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world.

　　My perception, however, changed after a hiking trip to the Eastern Suburbs, a scenic area of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some international students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by taller and taller trees, which formed a huge canopy above our heads. Suddenly an international student asked me, "Where is the entrance to the Eastern Suburbs?"

　　"We're already in the Eastern Suburbs," I replied.

　　He seemed taken aback, "I thought you Chinese have walls for everything." His remark set off a heated debate. At one point, he likened our walled cities to "jails," while I insisted that the Eastern Suburbs were one of the many places in China that had no walls.

　　That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this international student. For instance, he told me that universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls; the campuses were just part of the cities. I have to admit that we do have many walls in China, and as we are developing our country, we must carefully examine them, whether they are physical or intangible. We will keep some walls but tear down those that impede China's development.

　　Let me give you an example.

　　A year ago, when I was working on a term paper, I needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library. However, the librarian turned down my request with a cold shoulder, saying, "You can't borrow this book, you are not a student here." In the end, I had to spend 200 yuan buying a copy; meanwhile, the copy in law school was gathering dust on the shelf.

　　At the beginning of this semester, I heard that my university has started not only to unify its libraries but also link them up with libraries of other universities, so my experience will not be repeated. Barriers will be replaced by bridges. Through an inter-library loan system, we will have access to books from any library. With globalization, with China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.

　　I know globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. But one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to China's tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their roles in the modern world.

　　And how about the ancient walls in my city and other cities? Should we tear them down? Just the opposite. My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls. These walls attract not only historians and archeologists but also many schoolchildren trying to study our history and cultural heritage. Walls have turned into bridges to our past and to the rest of the world. If the ancient builders of these walls were still alive today, they would be proud to see such great change in the role of their walls. They are now bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all countries of the world. Our cultural heritage will survive globalization.

英語(yǔ)演講比賽即興演講范文 篇20

　　Sports are more than competitions. To me, they mean growth under the care of others. I learned this the hard way.

　　I used to be very shy and often felt lonely. Although I did well in all the academic subjects, I was afraid of physical education. My classmates often laughed at me.

　　“Look at that girl,” they said. “Her feet don’t leave the ground when she runs!”

　　Their words embarrassed me. Moreover, whenever the teacher organized some competitive games, no one in the class liked to have me as their partner or team member. As a result, I often ended up looking at others enjoy their games.

　　Things would go on like that if not for a sports meet in my high school. By mistake, my name was put on the list of those who would compete in the women’s 1500 meters race. By the time people found the mistake, it was too late to change.

　　My desk-mate was a natural athlete. She said to me, “I couldn’t run that race in your place, because I’ve signed up for three items already.” Other athletic girls of the class said the same.

　　I was utterly dumbfounded. 1500 meters! Running against the best runners from other classes! And in front of students of the entire school! It would be the worst nightmare I’d ever have!

　　“You still have time to catch up because there is still one month before the sports meet,” they all said this to me, including my teacher.

　　My desk-mate patted me on the shoulder, “Cool! You will run for our class! And we will do training together.” Yes, this is not just for myself, but for my class too, I said to myself. But still, 1500 meters to me was like Mount Everest to a beginning climber. I had no idea even how to start my preparation.

　　Fortunately, my desk-mate gave me a hand. Every afternoon after class, several of us ran together. When the fear of being laughed at struck me, I saw others running right beside me. They gave me strengths. While we were running, some others would stand by the tracks cheering for us.

　　One month certainly couldn’t make me a good runner. But when I was standing behind the start line, I no longer felt lonely or afraid. I saw my classmates standing by the tracks waving at me as if about to run beside me.

　　With the shot of the starting gun, I dashed out and ran as fast as I could, as if it were a 200-meter race. Soon I was out of breath and slowed down. Other runners passed me one by one, and gradually I had no idea how many of them were still behind me. My legs were getting heavier and heavier, and I might fall down at any moment. However, I suddenly heard my classmates chanting my name. My desk-mate even ran along the tracks beside me and cheered for me at the same time, just like the month-long training we did together.

　　As expected, I was almost the last to cross the finish line. Immediately, my classmates held my arms and urged me to walk on my feet and not to sit down. I was surrounded, with all kinds of drinks handed to me. I felt a kind of warmth I had never felt before. Even though I was almost the last to finish the race, I was full of confidence that I would improve in the future.

　　That sports meet was an unforgettable experience. The memory of my classmates cheering for me, holding my arms and handing me drinks stays fresh on my mind. Sports are no longer about winning or losing. They give me a lot of confidence, both confidence in my fellow students and confidence in my own potential. I am no longer lonely, no longer afraid. Sports have brought me close to my classmates and helped us grow together.

　　Now, I participate in the sports meet every year. Even if I am not competing, I would help my classmates with their practice, just like the way my desk-mate and others ran with me.

　　體育比賽越來(lái)越多。對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，他們的意思是在別人的照顧下成長(zhǎng)。我學(xué)會(huì)了這個(gè)艱難的方式。

　　我曾經(jīng)是很害羞，經(jīng)常感到孤獨(dú)。雖然我做得很好，在所有的學(xué)科，我是害怕體育教育。我的同學(xué)經(jīng)常嘲笑我。

　　“看那個(gè)女孩，”他們說(shuō)。“當(dāng)她運(yùn)行的時(shí)候她的腳不離開地面!“

　　他們的話使我感到尷尬。而且，每當(dāng)老師組織了一些有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)性的比賽，在班上沒有人喜歡把我當(dāng)他們的伙伴或團(tuán)隊(duì)成員。因此，我經(jīng)常結(jié)束看別人享受他們的游戲。

　　如果不是我的高中的一個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)，事情會(huì)繼續(xù)下去。錯(cuò)誤地，我的名字被列在那些將參加女子1500米比賽的人名單上。人們發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤，太晚了。

　　我的同桌是個(gè)天生的運(yùn)動(dòng)員。她對(duì)我說(shuō)：“我不能在你的地方跑，因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)報(bào)名參加了三個(gè)項(xiàng)目。”。

　　我完全被驚呆了。1500米!與其他班上最好的賽跑選手賽跑!而在整個(gè)學(xué)校的學(xué)生面前!這將是我曾經(jīng)有過(guò)的最糟糕的噩夢(mèng)!

　　“你還有時(shí)間趕上，因?yàn)檫�有一個(gè)月前的運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)，”他們都對(duì)我說(shuō)，包括我的老師。

　　我的同桌輕輕地拍了拍我的肩膀，“酷!你將為我們班競(jìng)選!我們會(huì)一起做的，“是的，這不僅僅是為了我自己，也為了我的課，我對(duì)自己說(shuō)。但是，1500米對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)就像是珠峰的一個(gè)開始攀登者。我甚至不知道如何開始我的準(zhǔn)備。

　　幸運(yùn)的是，我的同桌給了我一只手。每天下午放學(xué)后，我們幾個(gè)人一起跑。當(dāng)我害怕被嘲笑時(shí)，我看到別人在我身邊奔跑。他們給了我力量。當(dāng)我們?cè)诒寂軙r(shí)，有些人會(huì)站在軌道上為我們喝彩。

　　一個(gè)月肯定不能讓我成為一個(gè)好賽跑者。但是當(dāng)我站在起跑線后，我不再感到孤獨(dú)或害怕。我看到我的同學(xué)們站在鐵軌旁，好像在向我跑來(lái)跑去。

　　我用槍打了一槍，沖出去，跑得很快，好像是200米賽跑。很快我就喘不上氣，放慢了速度。其他的賽跑者一個(gè)一個(gè)地從我身邊經(jīng)過(guò)，漸漸地，我不知道他們中有多少人在我身后。我的腿越來(lái)越重了，我隨時(shí)都可能跌倒。然而，我突然聽到我的同學(xué)們唱著我的名字。我的同桌甚至在我的身邊跑過(guò)，在同一時(shí)間為我喝彩，就像我們?cè)谝黄鸬哪且粋�(gè)月的訓(xùn)練。

　　正如所料，我?guī)缀跏亲詈笠粋�(gè)越過(guò)終點(diǎn)線。立刻，我的同學(xué)們抱著我的胳膊，催促我走在我的腳邊，而不是坐下來(lái)。我被包圍了，有各種各樣的飲料遞給我。我感覺到了一種從未有過(guò)的溫暖。即使我?guī)缀跏亲詈笠粋�(gè)完成比賽，我充滿了信心，我會(huì)提高在未來(lái)。

　　那次運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)是一次難忘的經(jīng)歷。我的同學(xué)們?yōu)槲覛g呼，抱著我的胳膊，遞給我一杯酒，我的心都在新鮮。體育不再是關(guān)于贏得或失去。他們給了我很大的信心，都對(duì)我的同學(xué)信心和我自己的信心。我不再孤單，不再害怕。體育把我?guī)У轿业耐瑢W(xué)們，幫助我們一起成長(zhǎng)。

　　現(xiàn)在，我每年參加運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)。即使我不在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，我會(huì)幫助我的同學(xué)與他們的做法，就像我的同桌和其他人一起跑。

　　My Views on Receiving Education

　　In my early years, I did not see the value of education.

　　When I was going on thirteen, I started to run my own shop. From then on, I worked hard to become a successful businessman.

　　One day I realized the importance of the English language in the business world and started taking night classes.

　　I was able to communicate well with foreign customers after two years of English study. But I started to feel that, in the long run, having a limited knowledge of English was not enough to make my business successful. I knew that only a well- rounded education could guarantee my success in the future.

　　When I was eighteen, I had to make a decision to continue doing business or go back to school. There was one obstacle keeping me from getting an advanced education. I had only completed elementary school up to that point. I then went back to senior high school after four months of tutoring in different subjects. Being at school for the first time after so many years was somewhat embarrassing because my classmates were at least two or three years younger than I. I concluded that my age did not matter. The important thing was getting into college.

　　I took the College Entrance Exams. Although my math exam result was only one point below the required score. I never gave up hope. The following year, I took it again and received the highest score in my city. Achieving such an amazing result gave me encouragement and courage necessary to continue my education to the next step.

　　I am now in my second year of college and know that it is never too late to learn. My passion for studying and improving myself will never come to a halt as long as I continue to live.

　　“Live and Learn.” is the motto I have adopted. I believe with an education I will succeed. So, if you are wondering whether education is important, don’t hesitate a moment to step up and seize the opportunity.

　　我對(duì)教育的看法

　　在我小的時(shí)候，我不覺得教育有什么價(jià)值。在13歲的時(shí)候，我開始經(jīng)營(yíng)我自己的商店。從那時(shí)開始，我為成為一個(gè)成功的商人而努力工作。

　　一天，我意識(shí)到了英語(yǔ)對(duì)做生意的重要性并且開始上夜校。

　　在經(jīng)過(guò)兩年的英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)之后，我已經(jīng)能夠很流利的和外國(guó)顧客交流。但我逐漸意識(shí)到，從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來(lái)看，我現(xiàn)在僅有的英語(yǔ)知識(shí)無(wú)法使我的生意蓬勃發(fā)展。我知道只有淵博的知識(shí)是我未來(lái)成功的保證。

　　18歲的時(shí)候，我必須在繼續(xù)從商和重新回學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)之間做出選擇。當(dāng)時(shí)我僅有的小學(xué)學(xué)歷成為我接受高等教育的一大障礙。經(jīng)過(guò)4個(gè)月各門功課的惡補(bǔ)，我又回到了高中。多年后再次回到學(xué)校，讓我有些尷尬。因?yàn)槲业耐�班同學(xué)至少比我小2至3歲。然而在我看來(lái)，年齡不是問(wèn)題，重要的是能上大學(xué)。

　　我參加了高考。雖然我的數(shù)學(xué)只比分?jǐn)?shù)線低了一分。但我沒有放棄。第二年，我又參加了高考并取得了當(dāng)?shù)氐牡谝幻�。得到這樣一個(gè)令人欣喜的結(jié)果，給了我進(jìn)一步深造的動(dòng)力和膽量。

　　現(xiàn)在，我上大學(xué)二年級(jí)，也知道學(xué)無(wú)止境。只要我活者，我對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)和自我充實(shí)的熱情就不會(huì)減退。

　　“活到老，學(xué)到老”是我的座右銘。我堅(jiān)信只有學(xué)習(xí)才會(huì)使我成功。因此，如果你對(duì)接受教育的重要性有所懷疑，不要猶豫，勇敢的邁出第一步，這樣幸運(yùn)之神便會(huì)光顧你。

　　Good morning everyone：

　　It's a great honor for me to stand here to deliver a speech to you. Then today I want to talk something about dreams and reality.

　　As the famous Russian litterateur Lev Tolstoy said, “Ideal is the beacon. Without ideal, there is no secure direction; without a direction, there is no life.” So there’s no doubt that everyone needs his or her own ideal. Have you ever thought that what is practical and sensible will connect with our most treasured dreams? Maybe, to somebody, reality has little relation to ideal. To others nothing can be done without the sense of reality. So make our dreams a part of our reality. And make our reality a part of our dreams. There is no reason why our dreams must oppose our reality. Improve our dreams and our reality by bringing them together.

　　As a student, establishing a dream is one of the most important things we have to do .But everyone must see the reality clearly at first. Your family condition, your personal ability, your social intercourse (交往、交流), your subject and the job you want to do, these things show you the reality and lead you to establish a dream.

　　Further more, difficult or otherwise, we should put the power of reality into our dreams. Last but not least remember to work hard at the task of chasing 追逐our dreams. Do believe that we can achieve our ideal step by step by the passage of time!

　　In the end, I want to share with you a poetry named " I think I can".

　　Maybe you can not understand the meaning of the poetry , But do not be worried ,Let me tell you the meaning.

　　Thank you for your listening!

英語(yǔ)演講比賽即興演講范文 篇26

　　i have the answer to a question that we've all asked. the question is, why is it that the letter x represents the unknown? now i know we learned that in math class, but now it's everywhere in the culture -- the x prize, the x-files, project x, tedx. where'd that come from?

　　about six years ago i decided that i would learn arabic, which turns out to be a supremely logical language. to write a word or a phrase or a sentence in arabic is like crafting an equation, because every part is extremely precise and carries a lot of information. that's one of the reasons so much of what we've come to think of as western science and mathematics and engineering was really worked out in the first few centuries of the common era by the persians and the arabs and the turks.

　　this includes the little system in arabic called al-jebra. and al-jebr roughly translates to “the system for reconciling disparate parts.“ al-jebr finally came into english as algebra. one example among many.

　　the arabic texts containing this mathematical wisdom finally made their way to europe -- which is to say spain -- in the 11th and 12th centuries. and when they arrived there was tremendous interest in translating this wisdom into a european language.

　　but there were problems. one problem is there are some sounds in arabic that just don't make it through a european voice box without lots of practice. trust me on that one. also, those very sounds tend not to be represented by the characters that are available in european languages.

　　here's one of the culprits. this is the letter sheen, and it makes the sound we think of as sh -- “sh.“ it's also the very first letter of the word shalan, which means “something“ just like the the english word “something“ -- some undefined, unknown thing.

　　now in arabic, we can make this definite by adding the definite article “al.“ so this is al-shalan -- the unknown thing. and this is a word that appears throughout early mathematics, such as this 10th century derivation of proofs.

　　We often hear people say, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A personwho believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how manytimes he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is animportant one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.

　　One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieveanything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at somethingnew, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if wealways give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and growas people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from ourmistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again, the lesson wehave learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work toreach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeedin other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin todoubt our abilities.

　　In short, it is important that wedo not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end ornot, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better,more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have non chance ofattaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that wewill succeed one day.

　　Thank you !

　　Soon Jim returned with a frog for the stranger.The two frogs were put onthe floor, and theneach man gave his frog a push. The stranger’s frog hopped offsmartly. But Jim’s frog just satthere, unable to move an inch. Jim had nochoice. He gave forty dollars to the stranger, whotook the money and startedaway. Jim picked up his frog, and found it extremely heavy. Heturned it upsidedown, and the gunshot came out. He knew he had been fooled and, like a madman,started running after the stranger.

　　As he ran, he passed one of his friends, who asked him where he wasgoing.

　　"To catch a thief!" shouted Jim. "No matter how fast he may run, I'll catchhim. I'll bet you fivedollars!"

　　在加利福尼亞的卡拉維拉斯縣，有個(gè)人名叫吉姆?斯邁里。他好打賭，見什么賭什么。要是有人跟他說(shuō)“早上好”，他會(huì)說(shuō)，這天早上不怎么樣，不信就打個(gè)賭。只要有賽馬和斗雞，他都要去賭。在哪一邊下注他不在乎，有機(jī)會(huì)賭就行。

　　有一天，吉姆見到一個(gè)來(lái)到卡拉維拉斯縣的陌生人，就把自己的一只青蛙給他看，說(shuō)這是卡拉維拉斯全縣跳得最快最遠(yuǎn)的青蛙，不信就打個(gè)賭，賭40塊錢。陌生人說(shuō)他看不出那只蛙有什么非凡之處，如果他手頭有一只蛙，就賭一賭。聽了這話，吉姆就把自己的青蛙交給陌生人看管，出去為陌生人找一只蛙來(lái)。他不在的時(shí)候，陌生人掏出一口袋鉛彈，掰開青蛙嘴，把鉛彈灌了進(jìn)去。

　　不久吉姆就給陌生人帶了一只青蛙回來(lái)。兩只青蛙在地上擺好，然后各人將各自的青蛙輕輕一推。陌生人的青蛙一下子就跳起來(lái)，跳得好快好遠(yuǎn)。但吉姆的蛙卻呆在那里紋絲不動(dòng)，像釘在地上似的。吉姆無(wú)奈，只得交出40塊錢。陌生人拿了錢就走了。吉姆把自己的蛙拿起來(lái)，覺得沉甸甸的。他把蛙倒提起來(lái)一抖，鉛彈掉了出來(lái)。他知道自己上了當(dāng)，就像瘋子似的去追陌生人。

　　正跑著，一個(gè)朋友瞧見他，不問(wèn)他風(fēng)風(fēng)火火地去干什么。

　　“去抓賊!”他吼道，“無(wú)論他跑得有多快，我都要追上他。不信打5塊錢的賭!”
