　　A Young Idler,An Old Beggar Almost everyone knows the famous Chinese saying：A young idler，an old beggar. Throughout history，we have seen many cases in which this saying has again and again proved to be true. It goes without saying that the youth is the best time of life，during which one's mental and physical states are at their peaks. It takes relatively less time and pains to learn or accept new things in a world full of changes and rapid developments. In addition，one is less likely to be under great pressure from career，family and health problems when young. Therefore，a fresh mind plus enormous energy will ensure success in different aspects of life. Of course，we all know：no pains，no gains. If we don't make every effort to make good use of the advantages youth brings us，it is impossible to achieve any goals. As students，we should now try our best to learn all the subjects well so that we can be well prepared for the challenges that we will face in the future. 少壮不努力,老大徒伤悲 几乎所有人都知道中国有一句老话:少壮不努力,老大徒伤悲.通过阅读历史,我们从一个又一个的案例当中得知,这句话被证实是真确的. 不用说都知道,在青年时期,人的智力和身体状况都是一生中最好的,这也是一个人一生中最好的时期.在这个处处都不停地转变,飞快地发展的世界里,年轻使人相对地用更少的时间去学习和领悟新知.在这时,很少人会困在从事业上来的压力下,家庭和健康问题也比较小(就是说不是没有--译者).所以,一个清醒的脑袋加上巨大的能量就会成就人生中不同方面的成功. 当然,我们都知道:没有挫折就没有获得.如果我们没有好好努力去利用年轻带给我们的优胜之处,那就没有可能获得任何的成功.作为中学生,我们应该做到最好去学好每一个科目,这样的话,我们就可以为将来即将面对的挑战做好准备.

　　火星上的生活
1.我们的行星地球正变得越来越拥挤，越来越受污染；我们可望重新开始，在火星上建立一个更好的家园；
2.首先，交通应当好得多；很快，航天飞机的速度将达到光速的一半；
3.人类要生存，就需要食物.水和空气；科学家希望使植物发展，能在火星上种植，以产生我们需要的食物和氧气；但是，还不能确定它们是否能产生水；
4。火星上的重力只相当于地球上的3/8，人们在火星上得穿上特制的靴子，以增加重量。
Our own planet,Earth,is becoming more and more crowded and polluted.Hopefully,we can start again and build a better world on Mars.First of all,transport should be much better.In a very short time,space shuttles will travel at half speed of light.Humans meed food,water and air to survive.Scientists hope to plants that can grow on Mars.These plants will produce the food and oxygen that we need.However,it is not certain if these plants will be able to produce water .The gravity on Mars is only about three-eights of the gravity on Earth.Humans on Mars would have to wear special boots to make themselves heavir.

　　Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. I hope you will like it , and found 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 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 freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life . Youth means a temperamental divdominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old 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 of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of 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, courag先生们，下午好！我很高兴站在这里给你一个简短的发言。今天我的主题是“青年” 。我希望你能喜欢它，并发现的重要性在您的青年，使更多的珍惜。首先，我要问你几个问题： 1 ，你知道什么是青年？ 2 ，你如何掌握你的青春？青年是不是时间的生活，这是一种精神状态，它是不是玫瑰色的脸颊，红嘴唇，柔软的膝盖，这是一个情感：它是新鲜，这是新鲜的深海温泉的生活。青年是指气质divdominance了胆怯的勇气的食欲，对冒险的爱缓解。这往往存在于一个人的60多岁的男孩20 。没有人成长岁仅仅数年之久。我们变老的逃兵我们的理想。多年的皮肤起皱，但放弃热情皱纹的灵魂。担心，恐惧，自我信任弓箭的心脏和曲折的精神回尘埃。无论是60 16 ，但在每个人的心脏的诱惑奇观，食欲的不懈稚气的下一步和欢乐的游戏生活。在中心的心脏，我的心里有一个无线电台：只要它接收邮件的美丽，希望，欢呼，

　 一个瘦小的家伙到伐木区找工作。“给我一个机会,让我展示一下我能做什么。”他对木材商说。“好吧,”老板说：“拿上你的斧头,把那棵红木砍掉。”5分钟后,那皮包骨的家伙回来了。“我把它砍倒了,”他说：“还把它劈成了木材。”老板不相信自己的眼睛。“你从哪儿学来这么一手？”“在撒哈拉。”那人回答。“在撒哈拉沙漠？”“沙漠？噢,是的,现在人们这么叫它。”

　 On his very first sky diving attempt, Oscar leapt from the plane and pulled the rip cord. When the canopy failed to open, he tried his reserve chute, but that didn＇t work either. Saying a little prayer, he looked down to the ground below. To his amazement, a woman was rocketing up through the air toward him at the same speed he was falling.″Hey, do you know anything about parachutes？″ Oscar shouted desperately as they passed each other.″No,″she answered.″Do you know anything about gas grills？″
