I think that one people ought to bring self merit into play to the limit, not only this being helpful to the high limit field excavate own maximal value, and can realizing own social value. My maximal merit depends on assiduity course the close to surveying and mapping remote sense special field for 6 years in Wuhan University studies , I have laid down very solid special field of one basis. And at the same time , my thought is agile, to geospace information result of scientific research and the correlation between putting to use in production, have very keen feeling and deep interest, are rich start nature thought, practical experience having many projects. My shortcoming is not to have a self creative core theory or technology , I think that this is also a chance as for me and then. 7 month of next year will get my Master's degree , my major task is to be ready for graduation practice in this paragraph of time. I intend to spend the time doctor learning the environment academy enthusiastically accomplishing me in Canada Waterloo for 4 years place after graduating , I already receive the entrance invitation coming to Waterloo university graduate school at present. I apply for this Ph.D candidate project cause as follows: (1) Master stage in me, I have participated in "5.12 earthquake remote sense information of laboratory collecting the group who appraises a project with the condition of a disaster" , success in the disaster alleviation being responsible for collecting Canada and USA making use of radar portrait in taking precautions against natural calamities mainly has applied. That I discover the LiDAR technology in my this paragraph of time go into is that the three kinds technology and space all over the body measure new technique incorporate laser , global positioning system (GPS) and inertial navigation system (INS) , the person takes precautions against natural calamities in the remote sense , surveying and mapping , environmental monitoring, the medium field of disaster alleviation has the vast development prospect and applies need. Canada exactly is to be celebrated all over the world for environmental management and lidar technology but , these all are that the long range develops the inter-disciplines and technology needing badly develop in Chinese present. I will be "land-based mobile LIDAR data processing and the application for Emergency Response " , believe that I mimic Cheng returning back to homeland 4 years later , in the Waterloo go into, will certainly be able to come out strong , repay a motherland. (2) Chinas survey and draw the remote sense field having already got brilliant achievements on study of science , put to use in production but in the technology as well as on our industry project administration, the country who falls behind over with Europe and America, much maximal technology accomplishment is thesis rather than product or serves. Study one big characteristics that the cooperation of equal importance with practice educates to be also that Waterloo university and the person run a school (co-operative education) , the student will work in relevance organization to do practice during the period of the course is in progress , that the cooperation that it carries out at present educates a plan is that the whole world is maximal. The chance will fully utilize educating in cooperation in the Waterloo study about , me , the practice applying for the company who arrives at the Canada space information field, study their project managerial experience and how a technology is changed for applying. Be tied in wedlock Chinese national conditions after returning back to homeland,concentrate efforts on to applying to surveying and drawing the direct high-effect of remote sensing technique field to service society. Besides, I am informed that the Confucius of Waterloo university academy already has inaugurated on the last year. By the friend that I learn enthusiastically in Waterloo, I also know to be short of the Chinese teacher at present also very to Confucius of Waterloo university academy. I already get in touch with there Confucius academy department director, and their Chinese writing to me expressing an ability for the aspiration very, satisfied and welcoming me to arrive at their academy being that the student takes lessons in Chinese after school. My sincerity and fervency that can use me as far as possible goes to help them to know and appreciate beautiful Chinese language and culture although my ability is limited, distance of 1.1 goes to use action to carry out my promise let self act as a regard society in the future , person having contribution to development of society.

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 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 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, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are 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.
Thank you!
2.Ladies and Gentlemen, Good morning! I’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.
Man’s life is a process of growing up, actually I’m standing here is a growth. If a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then I grow up along with these choices. Once I hope I can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know I come here, now I wonder what the future holds for me.
When I come to this school, I told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. Following I will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job.
Once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” I will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these process I will combine learning with doing. If I can achieve this “future”, I think that I really grow up. And I deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future.
How to say future? Maybe it’s a nice wish. Lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.

女士们,先生们,上午好。我很高兴在这里为大家作一个简短的讲话。
人的一生是一个成长的过程,事实上,我现在站在这里也是一次成长。如果一个人的一生必须面临不同的选择,那么我就是伴随着这些选择成长起来的。曾经我盼望将来能上大学,然而那已经过去了,现在我在这儿,只想知道我的未来会是什么样的。
当我来到这所学校,我告诉我自己:我不久的将来都从这里开始。接着我要学习如何做人,如何做一个正直的人,并且拥有一个健康的体魄,能承担重要的任务,能独立思考,思想开放,心思缜密,有判断是非的能力,有一份不错的工作。
我的老师曾经告诉我说:“你不是在修补而是在创造;永远不要忘记你向人们所展示的是你的思想,而不是你的手艺。”我会将我的性格,兴趣爱好和能力一起融入到学习中去。在这过程中,我边学习边实践。如果我能实现这个“未来”,我就认为我真的成长了。并且我深信我的亲人,好朋友以及爱会使我的未来更完美,更幸福。
如何来解释未来呢? 也许那只是一个美好的愿望。让我们下定决心,坚持到底,那我们的人生一定能过得很精彩。
3 My Definition of Success
“Once upon a time, there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." Well, you know the rest. The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.
And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "And they live happily every after."
Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story. It is highly philosophical and symbolic. By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.
The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. The term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.
If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.
The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.
I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. Now here I am. If I come out first, it will be a great success for me. If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.
Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.
Thank you.
译文:成功之我见
“很久以前,有个国王,他的女儿貌美如花。老国王向所有来求婚的男士提出了三个任务作为挑战,而每一项任务都异常艰巨,几乎不可能完成。一天,来了一位年轻英俊的王子……”好了,下面的故事你们都知道了。三项任务在不同的版本中各不相同,但关键部分的情节都如出一辙:王子成功地过关,得到了公主的芳心。而故事的结局也都一样,最后一句都写道:“从此他们幸福地生活在一起。
为什么我们对如此美妙、如此不切实际,而我要说,如此缺乏想象力的东西这么乐此不疲呢?这样的故事又如何能够经历几代人的重复?我想,因为它是典型的成功的例子。故事的思想性很强,具有代表性。通过故事带给我们的启示,我们认识到了成功定义中的四个步骤;第一,目标的设定,有如故事里美丽的公主;第二,所遇到的困难和挑战,就像三大任务;第三,克服困难的过程,故事中青年经历重重难关可以作为象征;第四,就是成功的果实,如同幸福的婚姻。
这个故事不仅迎合了人们内心深处对成功的向往,也强调了过程和结果的不可分离。如果通往成功的道路崎岖曲折,那么成功的回报必然硕果累累,反之亦然。如果一个人继承了父辈的百万家产而生活得轻松富足,那么,即使在物质上,他也不能算是个成功人士,因为,他的财富并没有经过艰难困苦而获得。确切地说,“成功”这个词,不是个静态简单的定义。在我的理解中,真正意义上的成功是奋斗的过程和经历了奋斗之后赢得的满意的结果。请让我另举一例来阐明我的见解。
如果我们试着改变足球的比赛规则,将球门放得很大,换下大卫·希曼或其他任何的守门员,这样,随便哪个“大卫”,比如说,“大卫·贝克汉姆”,就可以轻松进球,然而这样进一球却不能给他带来成功的震颤与喜悦。如果我们再改一改比赛规则,不让阿森纳队的防守来守门,那么,贝克汉姆只要动动手,其实就是抬抬脚就能进一球,那样的话、,实际上也没有什么比赛可言了,因为赢球的意义已经不存在了。在接受挑战、克服困难和经历磨难的过程中,“成功”的价值才得以丰满。取得成果的意义和所克服的艰难的程度成正比。所谓成功的概念不是一成不变的.而昙相对而言的,因为困难的性质也是相对意义上的。
正常人不费力气做成的事对于一个残疾人来说也许相当困难。获得了同正常人一样的能力,这个残疾人就获得了成功。这便是我们为什么崇敬史蒂芬·霍金的原因—虽然行动不便,受到了轮椅的限制,他依然为科学界作出了巨大的贡献。
就我自己而言,生性羞涩,容易怯场,不得不鼓起非常大的勇气来参加此次的演讲比赛。我完全可以待在一边,不参加大学级别的比赛,而落得轻松自在。可是,我还是选择了接受这一挑战来面对困难。现在我来了,如果我能够得第一的话.这对我来说就是巨大的成功。如果,我是最后一名—我希望情况不是这样—但如果我真的是最后一名,我也不会认为这次的尝试是一次失败,反而我要把它当作一次真正的成功来庆贺,因为我一部分的目标是对自己性格的锻炼—更加坚强、勇敢地面对困难。对我来说,这标志着我在通向成功人生的漫漫征途中又向前迈进了一步,尽管是很小的一步,但是我确实通过参与真正地获得了收益。
回到我们年轻英俊的王子和对“成功”的四步骤定义上吧,您也许已经注意到了财富、地位和名誉等这些世俗的标准在故事中并未提及,相反故事强调了克服重重困难的过程。古代的智慧已经对成功的意义下了定义,这也是我的定义。
谢谢!
