Three years ago, when Tyrone Duncan was jobless, recovering from a spinal injury and a stintin a homeless shelter, some volunteers at his transitional housing site encouraged him to run with them as they trained for a race.
So it’s no surprise when Duncan says running turned his life around. He is far from the only person in sneakers to make that claim. A growing number of national organizations are using the sport to help kids and adults facing such challenges as homelessness, drugs and cancer. They have a variety of names — Back on My Feet, Achilles International, Alex’s Lemonade Stand, Run to Recover — but all have turned to running for the psychological and physiological benefits that training for a race can bring.
Hello，every！today I’m glad to give you a speech of “the youthdream”.
First I want to ask you some questions: Do you know what is youth? How do you master your youth? Different people may have different answers. In my eyes, youth is not rosy cheeks,red lips and supple knees. It is a matter of the emotion: it is the freshness, it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.Martin Luther King had said：
I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every vally shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
Wow, what a dream it has been for Martin Luther King.But the changing world seems telling me that people gradually get their dreams lost somehow in the process of growing up, and sometimes I personally find myself saying goodbye unconsciously to those distant childhood dreams.
However, we need dreams. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great.When we were little kids, we all dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant.Now what we need to do is to maintain them, refresh them and turn them into reality. However, the toughest part is that we often have no ideas how to translate these dreams into actions. Well, just start with concrete objectivity, we will make it.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. So my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. Whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today.
I am a third year master major in automation at Shanghai JiaoTong University, P R China With tremendous interest inIndustrial Engineering, I am writing to apply for aeptance intoyour PhD graduate program
Education background
In 1995, I entered the Nanjing University of Science &Technology (NUST) -- widely considered one of theChina’s best engineering schools During thefollowing undergraduate study, my academic reco发rds keptdistinguished among the whole department I was granted First ClassPrize every semester,In 1999, I got the privilege to enter thegraduate program waived of the admission test
At the period of my graduate study, my overall GPA(377/40)ranked top 5% in the department In the second semester, I becameteacher assistant that is given to talented and matured studentsonly This year, I won the Acer Scholarship as the one and onlycandidate in my department, which is the ultimate aolade fordistinguished students endowed by my university Presently, I ampreparing my graduation thesis and trying for the honor ofExcellent Graduation Thesis
Research experience and academic activity
When a sophomore, I joined the Association of AI Enthusiast andbegan to narrow down my interest for my f英语uture research With the tool ofOpenGL and Matlab, I designed a simulation program fortransportation scheduling system It is now widely used bydifferent research groups in NUST I assumed and fulfilled a sewageanalysis & dispose project for Nanjing sewage treatment plantThis was my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to amercial product
In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in boththeory and experience, which has prepared me for the PhD programMy future research interests include: work Scheduling Problem,Heuristic Algorithm research (especially in GA and Neural work),Supply chain work research, Hybrid system performance analysiswith Petri s and Data Mining
there was a guy who went into a shop to buy a parrot。 there werethreeparrots in the shop。 one was $5，000; another one，$10，000; and the third one，$30，000。
the customer asked the owner，“how e this guy is $5，000? that is soexpensive for this kindof parrot。”
the owner said，“because i have trained himand he can talk。”
so the customer asked him，“how about this guy?
what can he dothat makes him so expensive?” the owner said，“well，apart from talking，he canalso do some amusing actions，like dancing and so on。
that is why he is soexpensive。” then the customer said，“how about the third one? what canhe do thatmakes him so expensive?”
the owner of the shopsaid，“i don?t know。 normally，ihave never heard him talk，nor dance，nor whistle，nor sing，nothing at all! butthe other two call him ?the boss。”
ladies and gentleman，good evening！
it's my great honor to present this speech today。my name is peace and i am from class 1 of teaching chinese as a foreign language。 my topic today is "living at present is my top concern"。
we've often heard the famous words；“yesterday is history，tomorrow is mistery，but today is a gift，that's why it's called 'present' ”。indeed，rich or poor，every one is endowed with this most precious gift 。only by treasuring it and living to our fullest potential in the present，can we project our way forward to a bright and rewarding future。
