Youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, avigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance 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 may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bow the heart and turn the spring back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’ s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing c hildlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is
hope you may die young at 80.
青春
青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉意志，恢宏想像，炙热恋情；青春是生命深泉在涌流。
青春气贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安。如此锐气，二十后生而有之，六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加，并非垂老，理想丢弃，方堕暮年。
岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。忧烦，惶恐，丧失自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。
无论年届花甲，抑或二八芳龄，心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般久盛不衰的天真。人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上、人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存。
一旦天线下降，锐气便被冰雪覆盖，玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生，即使年方二十，实已垂垂老矣；然则只要树起天线，捕捉乐观信号，你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。

You have got all that the great have had: two arms, two legs, two hands, two eyes, and a brain to use if you'd be wise. With this equipment they all began, so start for the top and say" I can". Look them over the wise and the great. They take their food from a common plate. With similar knives and forks they use; with similar laces they tie their shoes. The world considers them brave and smart, but you know--- you have got all they had when they made their start. You can triumph and come to skill; you can be great if you only will. You are well equipped for the fight you choose you have arms and legs and brains to use. And people who have risen, great deeds to do started their lives with no more than you. You are the handicap you must face. You are the one who must choose your place. You must say where you want to go, and how much you will study the truth to know. God has equipped you for life, but he lets you decide what you want to be.

How long will it be before you find yourself famous? 眼球经济时代，速成“明星”究竟能红多久 “IN the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” US artist Andy Warhol made this famous statement in 1968. Back then, the only really famous people were pop stars and actors, political figures and war heroes – although things were changing. In just 30 years, his statement seems to have come true. Today there are countless individuals that go in and out of the media spotlight. The most common way that ordinary people today become famous is through reality shows. Both American Idol and Hunan TV’s have produced quite a few instant stars. The most famous person of this type is Scottish singer Susan Boyle, an out-of-work, plain-looking 48-year-old who came to international attention when she appeared on the reality TV program Britain’s Got Talent in April 2009. However, Boyle’s success was largely due to a video posted on YouTube.

But while Warhol emphasized the short-lived nature of modern fame, he also pointed out that fame is easier to get nowadays. If digital video cameras enable people to become reporters, why shouldn’t they also become celebrities?
高三英语复习备考经验交流 相互学习共同提高高三英语复习备考经验交流马继海 一、取得的成绩 2019年6月24日高考放榜了，我校在2019年的高考中取得了可喜的成绩，再次创造了新的辉煌。今年高考英语试卷整体难度增加，但我校英语学科仍然取得了非常优异的成绩，在今年的高考中，我校英语成绩在140 分以上的共有4 人，其中李佳慧同学以142分的成绩夺得了2019 年高考博州英语单科状元，李卓昕、刘逸博同学英语都考了141 分，韩凌霄同学英语140 分。第一层次黄尖班高三（15）班平均分125 分，第二层次两个黄冈班平均分106。四个实验班平均分在80 分左右，理科平行班平均分70 分左右，文科实验班平均分90 分左右，文科平行班68 分左右。 二、具体做法回顾过去一年的备考工作，我们主要做到以下几点： 1、制定好三轮复习计划。第一轮以基础知识为主，抓单词的拼写、词汇、句型的积累和活用以及重要语法的掌握。第一轮复习对于全年级各个层次班级的学生来说都非常重要，通过这些年的教学和学生的实际情况，我认为步步高系列全国版的一轮资料比较适合我们的学生，从基础词汇、重点短语、重点句型都和我们的教材同步，配套练习里，每单元还有一个要求运用以本单元所学内容进行微作文的写作练习，不仅使学生进一步巩固了已学词汇，而且很好的练习了书面表达能力。第二轮则以专项指导和训练为主，其中阅读和写作为重中之重。我个人认为，二轮专题中的大部分内容
其实在一轮复习时，已经穿插复习了，包括阅读和写作在一轮复习中已经花费了大量时间去练习。因此，二轮复习时，主要是结合专题练习进行查巩固加强。最后，第三轮是以综合模拟试卷类为主，主要以高考模式为主，不仅要训练学生的答题能力，还要注重答题技巧的培养和高考试卷答题规范性的要求和强调。以今年高考阅卷的情况为例，在写作、短文改错、语法填空题作答时，仍然有学生不能够严格按照试卷要求进行答题。在三轮复习中还要注意查漏补缺，根据学生的实际复习备考情况再对训练的内容进行调整。即使是尖子班的学生在高考前夕仍然会有需要强调和巩固的复习盲点。例如在几年高考前的最后一次综合模拟卷中，有一道语法填空题考查的是基数词变序数词，而这道题当时有很多同学都写错了，15 班也很有一部分同学都错了，因此，我专门准备了一个基数词变序数词的简短课件带着学生又复习了一遍。在今年的高考中，果然又考到了一道基数词变序数词的语法填空。 2、精选复习资料。这一届高三，我们使用的资料比较多样，我们使用的资料有步步高系列、完型阅读专练、小题大做、纠错卷、衡水测试卷、衡水金卷、衡水押题卷、考前三个月等。我们的资料非常充足，但是盲目地让学生把所有习题都做完也是不明智的。所以，不同层次的班级，教师要根据所教班级的实际情况，对复习资料要做出必要的挑选，再去使用轮复习时，三个黄冈班都集中使用了纠错卷、小题大做和衡水卷。纠错卷对平行班学生来说有一定难度，但对黄冈班学生来说还是非常有针对性的一本资料。 3、加强监督，提高练习的实效。众所周知，英语应该是所有学科里最容易应付的一门科目。进入高三复习阶段，学生各科的复习任务都比较繁重，因此在复习备考中，各个学科都会出现学生应付完成任务的现象。英语学科也一样，对于平行班那些
星火四级晨读英语美文100篇【励志感悟】第7篇 Excuses Some people go through life standing at the excuse counter. People say they'd like to do this or that,but...then they offer all the excuses in the world why they can't do whatever it is.No matter what the excuses are,the only thing usually limiting them is their own self-perception. If I've learned anyhing,I've learned a person--any person--can do just about anything they set their mind to.The only thing they need is a willingness to work for what you want,patience to learn what you need to know,and just a little bit of belief in yourself,but you only need a seed.Your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward. If you self-perception is that you can't accompilsh somthing because you're not smart enough,then take the time to learn what you need to know and your self-perception will change. If your self-perception is that you can't accompilsh something because you never finsh anything you start,then go finsh something and change your self-perception. If your self-perception is that you're too lazy,too bust,too unworthy,too unfocused,too depressed,too dependent on others,the you're right.You are that because you believe that,but you can change that! Life is change,and the past doesn't equal the future.Your today is the result of your past beliefs and actions.Change your beliefs and action and you change your future.If you think you can or you can't,you're right.You are what you think. Think about that the next time you need an excuse. 翻译： 借口 有些人站在“借口”这一柜台后虚度一生。 有人说，自己想做这个，想做那个，但是······于是便给出他们所能找到的各种借口，来解释自己为什么不能去做这些事。无论借口是什么，大概唯一能限制他们行动的只是他们的自我意识。 如果说我学到了什么，那就是我意识到一个人——任何人——都可以做他决定想做的一切。你唯一需要的是：为理想而努力的意志，学习所需知识的耐心和一点点自信。其实最需要的只是自信的一粒小小的种籽。自信会随着你的进步而增强。如果你自以为不够聪明而无法成功，那就花时间去学习你所需要的知识，这样你的自我感觉就会改变。 如果你认为自己太懒惰，太忙碌，太无足轻重，太不专心，太消沉，太依赖别人，太这样太那样而不能成大器，那么你是对的。你相信如此，便会如此。但你能改变一切。 生活无时无刻不在变化，过去不等于将来。你的现在是你过去的信念与行动的结果。改变信念和行动就会改变你的未来。你认为自己能或不能，你都是对的。你就是你所认为的样子。 下次需要找借口时，请好好想想
(一) Care your dream (By Vanessa Sanchez) 当梦想遭到现实的撞击时，总会发出凄美的破碎声。心灵被梦想的碎片刺痛，散落的碎片上还残留着斑斓的颜色。然而，心灵的疼痛却有着催人成长的力量。梦想的幻灭，是因为它没有得到精心的照料。去呵护你的梦想吧！勇敢地站在舞台中央，跳一曲快乐的人生芭蕾。 My dream ended when I was born. Although I never knew it then, I just he ld on to something that would never come to pass. Dreams really do exist. But in the morning when you wake up, they are remembered just as a dream. That is what happened to me. I always have the dream to dance like a beautiful ballerina twirling around and around and hearing people applaud for me. When I was young, I would twirling around and around in the fields of wildflowers that grew in my backyard. For hours I would dance as if people were watching me. I would dance so fast that I would forget where I was, until I would hear sounds that reminded me of where I really was. I thought that if I twirled faster everything would disappear and I would wake up in a new place. Reality woke me up when I heard a voice saying, "I don't know why you bother trying to dance. Ballerinas are pretty, slender little girls. Besides, you don't have the talent to even be a ballerina." I remember how those words paralyzed every feeling in my body. I feel to the ground and wept for hours. We lived in the country by a nearby lake and I would sometimes go there to hide. My parents were never home anyway and I did not like to be at home where I could hear the walls talking of pain. When they were home, my mother just yelled and criticized because nothing was ever perfect in her life. She dreamed of a different life but ended up living in a country far away from the city where she believed her dreams would have come true. I enjoyed hanging out by the water. I would sit there for hours and stare at my reflection. There I was, looked nothing like a pretty ballerina dancer. Reflections don't lie. Once the waves would come, my reflection was gone. Washed away just like my dream to dance. I sat there staring at the water, hoping that my reflection would reappear and be different. As I grew older, I began to realize that the reason my dream was even born in the first place, was because it was something that was inside of me. The dream I had was never nurtured and cared for, so it slowly died. It's not that I wanted it to die, but I allowed it to die the day I started listening to the words, "You can't do it." When I finally woke up from many years of dreaming, I realized that you can't settle for dancing in the wildflowers, you have to move on to the platform. I still go to the lake sometimes and sit there. Looking at my reflection is different now too. When I was young, I looked at how others saw me, now that I am older and wiser; I look at how God sees me. (二) Learn to be grateful Hello, everybody! Welcome to my blog, I'm Vivianna.

双语美文诵读 Look Every Day Positively If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view. By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things, you are more likely to have the incentive to achieve your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance. Your life can be enhanced, and your happiness enriched when you choose to change your perspective. Don’t leave your future to chance, or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence, and work through problems rather than avoid them. Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations, but the ability to deal with whatever comes in your way. Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your “worry hours” into “productive hours”. Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself
品味复原美文—熟读语感出 Years ago, a critical event occurred in my life that would change it forever. I met Kurt Kampmeir of Success Motivation Incorporation for breakfast. While we were eating, Kurt asked me, “John, what is your plan for personal growth?” Never at a loss for words, I tried to find things in my life that might qualify for growth.I told him about the many activities in which I was involved. And I went into a speech about how hard I worked and the gains I was making. I must have talked for ten minutes. Kurt listened patiently, but then he finally smiled and said, “You don’t have a personal plan for growth, do you?” “No, ” I admitted. “You know, ” Kurt said simply, “growth is not an automatic process.” And th at’s when it hit me. I wasn’t doing anything on purpose to make myself better. And at that moment, I made the decision: I will develop and follow a personal growth plan for my life. That night, I talked to my wife about my conversation with Kurt and what I had learned. I showed her the workbook and tapes Kurt was selling. We recognized that Kurt wasn’t just trying to make a sale. He was offering a way for us to change our lives and achieve our dreams. Several important things happened that day. First, we decided to buy the resources. But more importantly, we made a commitment to grow together as a couple. From that day on, we learned together, traveled together, and sacrificed together. It was a wise decision. While too many couples grow apart, we were growing together. 复现表达词汇—写作词汇储备 1. plan n. 计划；方案v. 计划; 打算【比较】project ________ programme _______ →plan to do sth. 打算做某事according to plan _________ 【比较】as scheduled_______ [背诵](2017·浙江高考写作佳句) As planned, we will be leaving by bus at 7 am at the school gate. 按计划，我们将于早上7点在学校大门口乘车离开。 2. involve vt. 包括; 需要；涉及；使参与→ involvement _________ →involve doing sth.包括做某事; 需要做某事→involve sb.in (doing) sth. 使某人参与某事 →be/get involved in 被卷入…之中；热衷于，专心于 [背诵](2014·江西高考写作佳句) 【比较】be engaged in __________ It really benefited me a lot to preview lessons, get actively involved in class and review what had been taught after class. 预习功课、积极参与课堂活动以及课后温习老师讲过的内容，真的使我受益匪浅。 3. admit vt. 承认；准许进入；接纳；可容纳→ ________(名词)【比较】allow ________ →admit doing/having done sth. 承认做过某事→admit sb.to/into 准许某人进入… →be admitted to/into 被接收(入学/入院/入党) admit that ... 承认… [背诵](2017·全国卷Ⅲ写作佳句) The table tennis team of our school is admitting new players. 我们学校的乒乓球队正在招收新队员。 3.decision n. 决定，决心→decide v．决定; 下决心→decisive________ →make a decision作出决定→ decide on 决定; 选定(=settle on ) →decide to do 决定做…(= determine to do ; make up one’s mind to do ...; )
晨读英语美文100篇 Passage1. Knowledge and Virtue Knowledge is one thing, virtue is another; good sense is not conscience, refinement is not humility, nor is largeness and justness of view faith. Philosophy, however enlightened, however profound, gives no command over the passions, no influential motives, no vivifying principles. Liberal Education makes not the Christian, not the Catholic, but the gentleman. It is well to be a gentleman, it is well to have a cultivated intellect, a delicate taste, a candid, equitable, dispassionate mind, a noble and courteous bearing in the conduct of life—these are the connatural qualities of a large knowledge;they are the objects of a University.I am advocating, I shall illustrate and insist upon them;but still, I repeat, they are no guarantee for sanctity or even for conscientiousness,and they may attach to the man of the world, to the profligate,to the heartless, pleasant, alas, and attractive as he shows when decked out in them.Taken by themselves, they do but seem to be what they are not;they look like virtue at a distance, but they are detected by close observers, and in the long run;and hence it is that they are popularly accused of pretense and hypocrisy,not, I repeat, from
