Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

Today, my topic is that China is the word that has changed the world. China is not only a

word, but also a kind of high quality porcelains originally made in China, a symbol that has

been well known all around the world, a culture that has been producing great effects on

the world literature. Above all, it is a nation that stands in the East like a giant.

China is a nation with a history of five thousand years. So China began to change the world

at the very beginning. Chinese porcelain, say, china, was one of the greatest inventions of

Ancient China. Europeans began to make copies of those beautiful Chinese porcelains as

soon as they were introduced to Europe in seventeenth century. China made the whole of

European porcelain industry blossom. At the same time, it promoted the development of

European economic history and the European Industry Revolution. Moreover, four great

inventions of Ancient China are known to every household. They gave enormous

impetuses to China’s politics, economics, and civilization. What’s more, they made great

contributions to the world civilization.

China has changed the world from the past to the present. Now, more and more people in

overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn to a Confucius Institute in their own

countries as their first choice learning Chinese language and Chinese culture. As a second

culture, Chinese culture has enriched the life and world outlook of the learners. This trend,

so to speak, is gathering momentum and is there to stay. Apart from their love for Chinese

cuisine, more and more learners of Chinese language are turning to Chinese acupuncture,

herbal medicines, and martial arts. They are also interested in kung fu films, fashions and

crafts.

So China is the very word that has changed the world. We are proud that we are Chinese. I

wish China, our motherland, is more thriving in the years ahead.

Swap, Don’t shop!

You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn’t end with

bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural

resources(资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or

throwing out old clothing) is not healthy for the environment. So what

to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you’re-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? 1 . It’s the best way

to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and

have a party all at the same time.

A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the

organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It’s

really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.

Invite 5—10 people so you have a nice selection. 2 , and

there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and

All the Cabbie Had Was a Letter

Foster Furcolo

1 He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the windshield to get his attention. 出租车司机拥有的就剩一封信

福斯特?弗克洛 他准是完全沉浸在所读的东西里了，因为我不得不敲挡风玻璃来引起他的注意。

2 "Is your cab available?" I asked when he finally looked up at me. He nodded, then said

apologetically as I settled into the back seat, "I'm sorry, but I was reading a letter." He sounded as if he had a cold or something. 他总算抬头看我了。“你出车吗？”我问道。他点点头，

当我坐进后座时，他抱歉地说：“对不起，我在读一封信。”听上去他像是得了感冒什么的。

3 "I'm in no hurry," I told him. "Go ahead and finish your letter." “我不着急，”我对

他说，“你接着把信读完吧。”

4 He shook his head. "I've read it several times already. I guess I almost know it by heart." 他摇了摇头。“我已经读了好几遍了。我想我都能背出来了。”

5 "Letters from home always mean a lot," I said. " At least they do with me because I'm on the
