I know what my student need
Ladies and Gentlemen,the next five minutes I will show you my idea about my teaching experience.The topic of my lecture is “I know what my students need”.AsaChinese teacher , I understandmyresponsibilitieshave multiplied.Many times I wonder, what does my students need actually ?
In fact,when I set foot on the 3-feet platform to be a chinese teacher, students started to become one significant part of my life.Their emotion affect my thought and judgment of all time.I hope there are bright futures in all of their life, but their ignorance and the disappointment they brought to me often makes me feel confused.Years later, I finally got that what students need is not just one outcome.Combined with my experience , I think the following three aspects arewhat students need and can get from me.The first thing they need is passion , passion of participation.Like reading, thinking or appreciation, we all need passion to do well in these things.With enthusiasm, all of them can try hard and feel in their mind.And every factor needs infection and mobilization of a passionate teacher.Next is appreciating them.As far as I'm concerned ,this may be the best approach of education.Appreciation is not a pure praise or encouragement, but fullyapproving students.This approach mainly aims at training students' self-respect and confidence through psychological hint.This is just what our students lack.I feel I often hear the words
“Sorry, I can’t” from their eyes.In fact, they are all eager to be understood and respected, but short of confidence and direction.Therefore ,we teachers should guide them by implication ,help them find hope,confidence and a brave heart,then let them stand proudly and say to all life on the stage : “Yes , I can!”
The final thing they lack is love I think, so they need love.This is mainly due to their family relationship.Some reasons like single parent family, bring about students’ lacking of family concerns.Heart to heart communication and guidance of future are not sufficient in their life.A word ,even an eye contact of teacher can transfer warm signal.Love and hope is the best nourishment of life.I hope through my efforts, I can give.As the saying goes that“ Rome was not built in a day.” I know my students need a lot,too.Hope that through my efforts,they can all embrace a brilliant life in the future.作為一名語文教師,我明白自己擔負的責任有多重。很多時候我在想,我的學生需要什么?
自從踏上三尺講臺的那一刻起,學生成了我生命中重要的組成部分,他們的喜怒哀樂時常左右著我的思維,影響著我的判斷;我希望他們將來有個美好的前程,有段幸福的人生,但他們的不爭、不悟,時常令我感到迷惘;多年以后,我終于明白,學生需要的并非只是一個結果。
結合我的經驗,學生最需要的并且能夠從我這里獲取的,我認為有以下三種:
首先是熱情——參與的熱情。閱讀、思考、鑒賞,都需要熱情才能做好:欣賞荷塘月色的柔美,感知游子思鄉的愁緒,品味琵琶曲的悠揚……有了熱情,才能用心、動情,而這一切,都需要一位激情充沛的教師的感染和調動。
其次是被賞識。我認為這是最好的教育方法。賞識不是純粹的表揚加鼓勵,而是充分的肯定學生,通過心理暗示,培養學生的自尊和自信。我們的學生最缺少的也是這些。我感到學生的眼神似乎經常在說:“Sorry,I can’t!”其實,他們都渴望被理解、被尊重,只是缺少自信和方向,所以,通過暗示和引導,幫助他們找到希望,樹立信心,并且勇敢的吐露心聲,然后驕傲的站在人生的舞臺上對所有人說:“Yes,ICan!”
最后,我認為他們缺少愛,所以需要愛。這主要是家庭的關系,因為單親,或者父母工作繁忙的原因,學生缺少親情的關愛、心靈的溝通和人生的指引。教師的一句話,一個眼神,也可以傳遞溫暖的信號。愛和希望是生命中最好的養料。但愿通過努力,我可以給予。
我知道學生需要的很多,我也知道冰凍三尺非一日之寒。希望通過我的努力,可以幫助他們擁抱燦爛的人生!

篇一
How to Be Popular
Most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal.What is the secret to popularity? In fact, it is very simple.The first step is to improve our appearance.We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well.When we are healthy and well-groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better.In addition, we should smile and appear friendly.After all, our facial expression is an important part of our appearance.If we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.Another important step is developing more consideration for others.We should always put others first and place their interests before our own.It's also important to be good listeners;in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us.However, no matter what we do, we must not gossip.Above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies.Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect.If we can do all of the above, I am sure popularity will come our way.如何才能受人歡迎
大部分的人都想受人歡迎,但是并非每個人都能達到目標。受歡迎的秘訣何在?事實上是很簡單的。步驟一,先改善我們的外表。我們得確保自己很健康,并且穿著體面。當我們既健康又穿戴整齊時,不僅看起來更有精神,自己也會覺得好多了。此外,我們要保持微笑并表現得很友善。畢竟,臉部表情是外觀很重要的一環。如果我們能做到這一點,別人會被我們的美好外表所吸引,并對我們的自信印象深刻。
另一個重要步驟,就是培養對別人的體貼。永遠以他人為重,并把別人的利益放在自己的利益之前。當個好聽眾也是很重要的;如此一來,別人才能很自在地對我們吐露心事。然而,不管我們做什么事,絕對不要說閑言閑語。最重要的是,要做自己,不要當虛偽的人。只有對人真誠又尊重時,才能贏得他人的尊敬。如果我們能做到以上幾點,我相信受人歡迎是指日可待的事。
篇二
I believe in our future
Honorable Judges, fellow students:
Good afternoon!
Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society.The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places.But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?
The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort.But the cynics are wrong.The college students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently.We help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades;and we neglect the need for character cultivation.But again, the cynics are wrong.We care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth.Last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives.We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country.I believe in all my fellow classmates.Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish.I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities.We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place.I believe in our future.我對未來充滿信心
尊敬的評委,各位同學:
下午好!
最近,社會上有一場很激烈的爭論。大學生是一種稀有特權的享有者,在很棒的地方接受高等教育。但是,我們能面對挑戰而無所畏懼嗎?我們能夠改善他人的生活嗎?我們能夠承擔建設祖國未來的重任嗎?
懷疑論者說大學生是被寵壞的一代,一丁點挫折都受不了。但是他們錯了,我所看到的大學生正在努力的學習獨立生活。我們互相幫助打掃衛生,一起上街砍價購物,一起參加兼職工作來賺零花錢。
懷疑論者說我們除了成績什么都不關心,從而忽略了性格的培養。但是,他們又錯了。我們彼此關心,我們向往自由,我們珍惜公正,我們追求真理。上個星期,很多我的同學去驗血,為了給患血癌的孩子貢獻自己的力量。
作為大學生,我們是處在人生分水嶺的青年。我們都面臨一個重要的選擇:懷疑人生還是相信自己,每一種都會給我們的人生帶來重大的影響,甚至影響我們祖國的未來。我相信我們的同學們,雖然我們依然缺乏經驗,甚至有些志氣,但是我相信我們有勇氣和自信來面對生活的挑戰并承擔我們的責任。我們正努力準備接受新的任務,用我們所學習的知識將世界變得更美好。我對我們的未來充滿信心?!?/p>
篇三
Change The Ingredients Of Your Life
This is a glass of water, tasteless, right? However if you add sugar, it will taste sweet, but if you add vinegar, it will become bitter.The same is true with our life____ the flavor is created by our choices.If kindness is added to a strange you will have a friend;but if hostility is added, you will have an enemy.If love is added to a pile of red bricks you will have a home, but if hatred is add to those bricks , you will have an concentration camp.So my dear friends, never complain that life is boring and the world is disappointing.If don’t like the taste of your life, change the ingredients.Three year ago, I weighed more than 100 hundred kilograms which caused significant embarrassment and frustration in my life.Like always failing my P.E examinations, like always being laughed at by girls, like being terrified to speak in public.It was my grandmother’s encouragement that revived from my passive attitude to become confident in myself.She said “ My dear, if you can’t change you figure, why not treat it as your own style.So I began to cautiously employ the new way of thinking.By choosing to change my outlook on life, I developed the confidence to make a difference and finally I found a totally new world.So my dear friend, if faith, hope, love, endurance are added to your life, you will find the confidence to conquer your limitation and embrace new challenges.And hopefully with my speech included, you will have a fantastic speech contest.改變生活的味道
這是一杯白開水,平淡無味,對吧?可是加上點糖呢,他嘗起來會有甜味;如果加的是蘇打水,味道就會變苦。人生同樣如此——個中滋味在于我們的選擇。
善待他人,你會擁有朋友;但如果充滿惡意,則會多個敵人。將愛賦予一堆紅磚,你會擁有一個家;用仇恨來澆鑄這堆紅磚,就會鑄成一座集中營。
因此親愛的朋友們,不要抱怨人生乏味,世間無望。不喜歡生活的味道,那就換一換生活的調料吧!
三年前,我重達100多公斤,這給我帶來了很多尷尬和挫折:體育課老是不及格,總被女孩們嘲笑,更不敢當眾發表意見。幸而由于祖母的鼓勵,我不在消極人生,而是充滿自信。她曾經說過:“孩子,如果體形無法改變,為什么不把它看做自己獨特的風格呢?” 我開始這樣來審視人生,通過改變生活的視角,我信心大增地去改變我的人生,很快就發現一個嶄新的世界。
朋友們,將信念,希望,愛意和忍性溶入生命,你就會找到自信,克服缺點,迎接人生新的挑戰。最后我的演講包括在內,希望你會看到一場精彩的演講比賽。
篇四
The East and the West, Let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures?
Kipling said:“East is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” But now, a century later, they have met.They have met in business.They have met in education.They have met in the arts.Some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but I believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds.We can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use.We can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.I love Beijing and Hennan opera because it always reminds me of who I am.But I am also a fan of pop music, especially English songs.So I have combined eastern melody with western language.It is called western henna opera.When two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other.When this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the customs of another culture.Then there are certain things some people may not like.To this, I will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it.To learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge.Before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures.At present, they may run in different courses.But eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.Right now, I can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the Olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow!Thank you!
讓我們共同感受東西方的融合
吉卜林說過:東方是東方,西方是西方,二者永不相聚。但是一個世紀后的今天,東西方相匯了!它們相聚在經濟領域,它們相聚在教育領域,它們相聚在藝術的殿堂。有人爭論說:這種融合需要我們在東方和西方之間做出選擇,但我卻堅信最美好的未來在于東方和西方創造性的融合。我們可以將西方的思想,觀念和技術變為我們自己所用的東西。
我喜愛京劇和河南豫劇,因為它們經常使我想起自己是誰。但我也熱衷于流行音樂,特別是英文歌曲。于是我將東方的旋律和西方的語言結合到了一起,它叫做西方版的河南豫劇。
當兩種文化相結合的時候,也許一方的文化中的某些東西不適應另一方的傳統文化。當此種情況出現時,我們需要試著理解并接受另一種文化中的風俗習慣。然而,也許有些東西你并不喜歡,對于此,我可以說,如果你不喜歡它,請試著去容忍它。當兩種文化融合的時候,試著去容忍你個人不喜歡的東西是一種美德。
在我們面前有兩條河流,東方文化和西方文化?,F在,它們也許正朝著不同的方向流去。但是最終它們將匯合到人類文化的海洋里。
就在此時此刻,我看見東方和西方的人肩并肩的站在一起,高唱奧林匹克主題曲:我們手拉手,心靠著心,共同創造美好的明天!
篇五
Farewell, Indifference
Who was the most well-known figure in China last month? It’s Ma JiaJue—the college student who murdered 4 of his roommates.Many people attributed his crime to his poverty and deficient education.In my opinion, his crime also has much to do with his classmates’ indifference.Indifference is a terrible disease in today’s colleges and the whole society.It’s not rare that two students who have studied together for 4 years have never spoken to each other.It’s not rare that a student who has been absent from class for several days is not noticed at all.It’s also not rare that a student who has severe psychological problems is not cared about at all.Some people may say ‘What the students with psychological problems like Ma JiaJue need is not care but psychotherapy.” However, when people are ill, what they need most is not only medical treatment, but also care from people around them.Every smile and every caring word will bring sunshine to their life.I once heard one of my roommates who was an introverted girl sobbing at mid-night.Being afraid of disturbing her, I sent a text message to comfort her.The next day, she told me that she was crying for not being invited to one of her friend’s birthday party.She thought she was neglected by others.But my message was really comforting which told her someone still cared about her.What can we do to prevent the tragedy of Ma JiaJue from happening again? Some people may say ‘Let’s open more psychological courses in schools.’ and other people may say ‘Let’s donate more money for the poor students.’ But I’ll say “My fellow student, let’s give more love and care to our roommates, our classmates and every person around us!”
走出冷漠
誰是中國上個月最有名的人物? 這當然要數馬加爵了——這個殺害了四名同學的大學生。很多人將他的犯罪歸結于他的貧窮和不全面的教育。但我覺得他的犯罪還跟他周圍同學的冷漠有很大關系。
冷漠是流行于當今校園及整個社會中的一種可怕的疾病。有的同學在一起學習了4年卻從未說過話,有的同學幾天沒去上課卻無人知曉,還有的同學有了嚴重的心理問題卻得不到關心。
有人說:像馬加爵那樣有心理問題的人需要的不是關心而是心理治療。但在一個人生病的時候,除了醫生的治療,他需要的還有周圍人的關心。一個微笑,一聲問候都能為他們的生活帶來陽光。
有一天半夜,我碰巧聽見寢室里一個平時很內向的女孩在輕聲抽泣。為了不驚動她,我給她發了一條短信來安慰她。第二天,他告訴我那晚她哭了是因為她的一位好朋友開生日聚會沒有請她參加,她覺得自己被大家所忽視了。但我對短信卻給了她很大安慰,讓她覺得還是有人惦記著她的。
如何才能阻止馬加爵的悲劇重演呢?有人呼吁應該在學校開設更多的心理輔導課程,有人建議應該給貧困學生更多的捐助,而我要說的是:同學們,讓我們把更多的關愛帶給我們的舍友,同學和身邊的每一個人!
篇六
I Am Tripping My Elephant Here
Once upon a time, a weenie ant was walking on his way.As he was walking, suddenly he felt the ground shaking terribly.He looked around with his paranoid eyes and saw an elephant walking right behind him.Quickly, the little ant covered himself with dirt, but one leg was unfortunately left out.A sparrow saw everything, so she flew down with the purpose of teasing the ant: “Hey, chicken!Watch out your leg, it’s out!” The ant felt embarrassed at first but then calmly responded: “ Shi?I am going to trip that elephant.”
Right now, I’m standing on this glamorous stage.But everything here reminds me of is a not so fun memory.Around this time last year I was in Nanjing competing in another speech contest.That was the first time for me to be in such a large event.Of course the pressure I was under was immense too.After a sleepless and stressful night, I went onto that stage without the feeling in my legs.That speech turned out to be horrible.I don’t remember how I get down from there, but I do remember afterwards I just wanted to find a hole to hide in just like the ant in the story.Back at my school, it took a long time for me to recover.Thanks to all the help I got from my special friends.My confidence was restored.After rounds of giving speeches and answering tough questions, I am here today.From all that I’ve been through I’ve learned that a good future is based on a forgotten past, if I want my life to go on well I have to let go of my past failure.So today, with out fear, I am tripping my elephant again.我又一次在絆大象
從前,一只小螞蟻在路上走著,走著走著,忽然感覺到地在顫動,回頭一看是一只大象正朝他走來。于是他很快用土蓋住身體,不幸一只腳忘在了外面。一只麻雀看到了一切,她飛下來想要取笑一下這只螞蟻,說:“咳,膽小鬼,小心你的腳,露出來了!” 螞蟻開始有些尷尬,但一會不緊不慢地告訴麻雀說:“小聲點,我要在絆那只大象。”
今天,我站在這個講臺上。但周圍的一切讓我想到的卻并不是一段有趣的回憶。大概是去年的這個時間,我在南京參加另一個全國英語演講比賽。那是我第一次參加大賽,當然壓力非常大。經過壓抑無眠的一整夜,我走上了演講臺。那時我有史以來最差的一次演講。我不記得自己怎么從講臺上走下來的,只記得當時很想找一個地方躲進去再也不出來就想我故事中的螞蟻?;氐綄W校,我花了好一段時間才恢復過來。幸好有朋友和老師的鼓勵,我又一次有了勇氣和信心。經過一輪又一輪的演講和回答問題,我今天站在了這里。讓也我領悟了一個道理:一個好的將來是建立在忘掉過去的基礎上的,直到真正忘記過去的失敗生活才會變的美好。今天,我沒有懼怕,又一次站到了大象的面前。
篇七
Hold Fast To Your Dreams
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 meed 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 objectives and stick to it.Don’t let the nameless fear confuse the eye and confound our strong belief of future.Through our talents, through our wits, through our endurance and through our creativity, 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.抓牢你的夢想
我今天有一個夢想。
我夢想有一天,幽谷上升,高山下降,崎嶇之地變平原,曲折之路成坦途。圣光展露,滿照人間。
這對馬丁路德金是怎樣的一個夢想啊。不過這個變化著的世界似乎在告訴我,在成長的過程中,人們卻不知不覺把他們的夢想弄丟了,而我自己也有時會覺得在告別很多童年的夢。
然而,我們是需要夢想的。夢想滋養我們的靈魂,夢想代表著我們被現實拉垮時依然具有的希望。它鼓勵我們不斷前進。大多數成功人士都是夢想家,同時也是普通人,只是他們敢于夢想敢于成就偉大。當我們還是孩子的時候,我們都夢想過做一番大事業,現在應當做的就是保存好那些夢想,再度恢復它們,并將它們實現。不過最難的是我們通常不知道怎樣付諸實施。那么,就從最具體的目標開始,堅持去做吧。不要讓那些莫名的恐懼迷惑了我們的雙眼,影響了我們對未來的信念。用我們的天資和智慧,用我們的耐力和創造力,我們一定會實現夢想。
抓牢你的夢想,因為如果夢想死亡,生活就成了一只折斷翅膀的鳥再也不能飛翔。抓牢你的夢想,因為如果失去夢想,生命就成了一塊覆蓋著冰雪的貧瘠的凍土。親愛的朋友們,想想那些過去的或已經死去的夢想吧。不管是什么,重新將它撿起,并從今天開始讓它重生。
篇八
Make Every Moment Count
One night, I complained to my mom about the lack of time.Finally she said,“you are short of time just because you waste precious minutes on complaints and anxiety.The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard, you can always fit in some thing more.”
It is the same with filling the jar.Even if you place a dozen fist-sized rocks and a bucket of gravel into the jar, there is still space for sand and water between the rocks and gravel.The lack of time is just the excuse for my negligence of every single minute.I believe that the great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in six words,“I did not have enough time.”The fact is I do have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.The point is I have never touched upon the real meaning of life which lies in snatching, seizing and enjoying every minute of it.No idleness, no delay, no procrastination, no complaint!It is during my moments of complaining or hesitation that my destiny is shaped.Once I make full use of every moment, I believe that, my worries will be gradually cut down to nothing.Time is the most valuable of all our possessions, but the most perishable as well.As Henry David Thoreau said,“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.”
Whenever I fell the lack of time in the future, I will tell myself “Carpe diem , seize the day, make every moment count.”
抓住每分每秒
有天晚上,我向媽媽抱怨自己事情太多,時間不夠。她說道:“你抱怨沒有時間就是因為你把珍貴的分分秒秒都浪費在抱怨和焦慮上。關鍵是,無論你的時間表排得多滿,如果你真的努力嘗試了,你還是總能間插地做些事情?!?/p>
這同填充廣口瓶是一個道理,即使你將一小堆拳頭大小的石塊和一桶碎石倒進瓶里,也還能繼續倒入沙子和水,使其漏進石塊的間隙中去。
“沒時間”無異于我為自己浪費分分秒秒找的托詞罷了。我相信成功與失敗的一線之差可以用六個字來形容:“我沒足夠時間。” 然而事實上,我卻與海倫.凱勒,帕斯特,杰弗遜和愛因斯坦每天所擁有的時間分秒不差。關鍵是我并未觸及生命的真諦:抓住,享受生命的每一分鐘。不要碌碌無為,不要耽擱推遲,不要牢騷抱怨!往往是在我抱怨和遲疑的時候,我的命運就被決定了。而一旦我能善用分分秒秒,我相信我的煩惱也會被逐漸瓦解。
在我們所擁有的財富中,時間是最珍貴而又最不持久的。正如梭羅所說的那樣:“你得抓住現在,把握機會,在短暫的瞬間中尋找永恒?!?/p>
如果將來我再發覺沒時間的時候,我會告誡自己,“carpe diem(拉丁語),抓住今天,抓住每分每秒?!?/p>
篇九
Beggars Today
Beggars are one of the most familiar groups in every city.They accompany us from our childhood until now, and I've found both the beggars and I change in this journey.Years ago as a little girl, when I came across some old and disabled beggars on the road, I'd donate some pocket money to them, happily thinking I was helping.I have grown older, I've found the number of beggars has grown larger and they are more diverse.They appear in every corner of the city, on the overbridge, on the street, near restaurants, and even at your door.In contrast with the old days, it seems like the situation with beggars today is more complicated, which has made me hesitate before deciding whether to help them or not.It's hard for me to give them money considering some who appear beggars in day time but dress up and go to fancy restaurants at night;and some who are controlled by some illegal organization and the money they get all goes to the organization.If I help them, I'd be making the problem worse, I'd be doing harm to the society, indirectly.But it's also hard not to give them money, considering there're real beggars who really need help.If I don't help them, who will? And where is my sympathy?
What hurts me the most is not how hard it is to distinguish the real help-seekers from the many false ones, but that some children are forced by adults, sometimes even their parents, to beg.They grow up despised by the world, out of mainstream society.When I see their eyes filled with desperation and impudence instead of purity and innocence, my heart sinks.We don't know how they will face the world when they grow up, how this will shape their characters, and what they may do to the society, to perpetuate this cycle of violence.Months ago the Fu Jian government has promulgated a new policy to deal with 8 kinds of beggars.An internet survey shows that over 80% of voters reacted positively toward the policy.We know that one single policy cannot solve a problem as complex as this one, but we do look forward to some improvement.I wish all humanity can live like human.今日乞丐
在城市中,乞丐是我們最熟悉的群體之一。他們伴隨著我們的成長,從童年直到現在。在這個過程中,我發現,乞丐和我都在變。
小時候,每當看到路旁的乞丐,通常是老人或殘疾人,我會給他們一些零錢,并且高興地認為我幫了他們。
長大后,我發現身邊乞丐的數量有所增加,而且他們種類繁多。他們無所不在,天橋上,大街上,飯館旁,家門口,城市中處處是他們的身影。比起過去,今天的乞丐似乎更加復雜,使得我在決定幫不幫他們的時候猶豫不決。
想到那些白天裝作乞丐行乞,而夜晚換裝后跑到賓館作樂的人;想到那些被不法集團控制,然后把乞討來的錢上交給集團的人,我真的很難做到給他們錢??墒?,想到那些真正需要幫助的乞丐,又很難做到不幫他們。如果不幫他們,我的同情心死到哪去了?
最讓我難受的,并不是因為從眾多的假乞丐中找出真乞丐是多么的困難,而是那些被成人,甚至被父母教唆,去乞討的孩子們。他們在歧視中長大,和主流社會脫離。當我看到他們眼睛里本應有的純真和童稚被絕望和無恥取代時,心里便很難受。我們不知道他們長大后會怎樣面對這個世界,他們的性格會被童年的經歷塑造成什么樣子,以及他們有可能對社會做出怎樣的事情---讓惡性循環繼續?
幾個月前,福建省頒布了一項針對八類乞丐的新政策。網上調查顯示,超過80%的人對此政策持樂觀態度。雖然如此復雜的問題不能通過單單一項政策得以解決,我們還是期待著一些改善。愿所有的人都能像人一樣活著。
篇十
My Views on Receiving Education
In my early years, I did not see the value of education.When I was going on thirteen, I started to run my own shop.From then on, I worked hard to become a successful businessman.One day I realized the importance of the English language in the business world and started taking night classes.I was able to communicate well with foreign customers after two years of English study.But I started to feel that, in the long run, having a limited knowledge of English was not enough to make my business successful.I knew that only a well-rounded education could guarantee my success in the future.When I was eighteen, I had to make a decision to continue doing business or go back to school.There was one obstacle keeping me from getting an advanced education.I had only completed elementary school up to that point.I then went back to senior high school after four months of tutoring in different subjects.Being at school for the first time after so many years was somewhat embarrassing because my classmates were at least two or three years younger than I.I concluded that my age did not matter.The important thing was getting into college.I took the College Entrance Exams.Although my math exam result was only one point below the required score.I never gave up hope.The following year, I took it again and received the highest score in my city.Achieving such an amazing result gave me encouragement and courage necessary to continue my education to the next step.I am now in my second year of college and know that it is never too late to learn.My passion for studying and improving myself will never come to a halt as long as I continue to live.“Live and Learn.” is the motto I have adopted.I believe with an education I will succeed.So, if you are wondering whether education is important, don’t hesitate a moment to step up and seize the opportunity.我對教育的看法
在我小的時候,我不覺得教育有什么價值。在13歲的時候,我開始經營我自己的商店。從那時開始,我為成為一個成功的商人而努力工作。
一天,我意識到了英語對做生意的重要性并且開始上夜校。
在經過兩年的英語學習之后,我已經能夠很流利的和外國顧客交流。但我逐漸意識到,從長遠來看,我現在僅有的英語知識無法使我的生意蓬勃發展。我知道只有淵博的知識是我未來成功的保證。
18歲的時候,我必須在繼續從商和重新回學校學習之間做出選擇。當時我僅有的小學學歷成為我接受高等教育的一大障礙。經過4個月各門功課的惡補,我又回到了高中。多年后再次回到學校,讓我有些尷尬。因為我的同班同學至少比我小2至3歲。然而在我看來,年齡不是問題,重要的是能上大學。
我參加了高考。雖然我的數學只比分數線低了一分。但我沒有放棄。第二年,我又參加了高考并取得了當地的第一名。得到這樣一個令人欣喜的結果,給了我進一步深造的動力和膽量。
現在,我上大學二年級,也知道學無止境。只要我活者,我對學習和自我充實的熱情就不會減退。
“活到老,學到老”是我的座右銘。我堅信只有學習才會使我成功。因此,如果你對接受教育的重要性有所懷疑,不要猶豫,勇敢的邁出第一步,這樣幸運之神便會光顧你。
第三篇:勵志英語(中英對照)
好運就是當機會來臨時,而你已經做好了準備。
Good luck is when an opportunity comes along and you’re prepared for it.努力過,失敗過,沒關系。屢戰屢敗,屢敗屢戰,每一次失敗都比上一次更好。Ever tried, ever failed.No matter, try again, fail again.Fail better.對于現狀的不滿,不能只是抱怨,要有勇氣做出改變。
If you are not satisfied with the live you living, don’t just complain, do something about it.靠過去完成的無法讓人保有成功,必須在路上持續交出成績。
A fellow doesn’t last long on what he has done, he’s got to keep on delivering as he goes on.別低估了慷慨的力量。
Generosity is its own form of power.成功無法保證,并非唾手可得。成功必須靠自己去爭取。
Success is not guaranteed.It is not handed to you, Success is earned.如果你獨處時感到寂寞,說明沒有把自己陪好。
If you’re lonely when you are alone, you’re in bad company。
父親最大的夢想就是孩子的生活是充滿歡樂的。
A father’s greatest dream is that his child’s life is filled with joy。
你的從內心深處找到一種可以忍受一切痛苦的堅強力量時,你的成長歷程就會出現飛躍。The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core of strength within you that survives all hurt。
偉大的門將不是靠神奇的撲救成就的,而是靠注重小事和細節。
It’s not about making the amazing saves.It’s the little things and small things that made great gatekeepers great.不要等待好事降臨,你要向幸福進發。
Don’t wait for good things to happen to you.You need walk towards happiness.有時候要到達谷底,才會慢慢變好。
Sometimes things have to fall apart to make way for better things.我會回去,找到你,愛你,娶你,活的光明正大。
I will return, find you, love you, marry you and live without shame.熱愛生活,生活也會厚愛你。
If you love life, life will love you back.你是什么樣的人和你想成為什么樣的人的差距就是你做了什么。
The difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do.你需要盡你所能,最大限度的努力,只要你這么做,只要你能保持樂觀,你就會看見烏云背后的幸福線。
You have to do everything you can, you have to work your hardest.And if you do, if you stay positive, then you have a shot at a silver lining.請記住,幸福不在于你是誰或者你擁有什么,而僅僅取決于你的心態。
Remember, happiness doesn’t depend upon who you are or what you have, it depends solely upon what you think.無論未來何去何從,我們在一起的每一年都是我人生中最輝煌的日子,我永遠屬于你。No matter what happen to us in the future, every day we are together is the greatest day of my life, I will always be yours.生活變得美好,不是偶然,而是我們努力改變的結果。
Life gets better not by chance, but by change.人生不如意之事十之八九。
Sometimes things just don’t work out the way you thought they would.追尋自己,追求挑戰、希望、愛情、憤怒、感恩,追尋光陰,追尋黑暗、追尋一切,不留戀過往。
Claim yourself in defiance, in hope、in love、in fury、in gratitude、claim the light ,claim the dark ,claim it all ,nothing can stay。
當我們下定決心面對世界上所有的事物,包括荊棘難題,就已經打贏了半場戰役。
We win the battle when we make up our minds to take the world as we find it, including the thorns.從今天開始,我要積極地接受一切,接受愛,迎接挑戰,擁抱生活;不管什么我都會勇敢地接受。
From now on , I am gonna say yes to love, yes to adventure, yes to life, whatever it maybe, the answer’s going to be yes.正真地友情是,即使兩個人不說話,也覺得很舒服。
True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable.生活就是這樣,你一直想要得到的東西,總在你不指望的那一刻姍姍來遲。
It is the rule of life that everything you have always wanted comes the very second you stop looking for it.有理想,卻不愿為之努力,那是空想。
There’s no point having wishes if you don’t at least try to do them.上天會把你帶走,看著你,對你說,只有一件事可以讓靈魂完整,那就是愛。
Heave will take you back and look at you and say ,“only one thing can make a soul complete-and that thing is love”.目標有價值,生活才有價值。
Life has a value only when it has something valuable as its object.最美好的事是看到某人的微笑;更美好的事是她因你而微笑。
The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling.And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it.生活中要記住三個單詞:選擇、機會和改變。你必須做出選擇,抓住機會,否則你的生活只會一成不變。
The 3’cs of life:choice, chance and change, you must make a choice to take a chance or your life will nerve change.世間萬物都處在微妙的平衡中。
Everything you see exists together in delicate balance.生活就像淋浴,方向轉錯,水深火熱。
Life is like a shower, one wrong turn and you’re in hot water.Love and sense are enemies at any age.在任何年齡,愛與理性都是對立的。
Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.這一刻全力以赴,下一刻便可搶占先機。
Opportunities are not offered, they must be wrested and worked for.And this calls for perseverance and courage.有時候,最難的并非是放下過去,而是學會重行開始。
Sometimes the hardest part is not letting go, but rather, learning to start over.要走得快,就一個人走;要走的遠,就一起走。
If you want to go fast, go alone;If you want to go far, go together.一見鐘情只是瞬息之間,而對愛大徹大悟卻需要很多年。
It takes no time to fall in love, but it takes you years to know what love is.上天就像導演電影那樣安排我們的人生,中間的起起伏伏,為的只是做好的完美收場。God’s plan is like a movie.All the good and bad things are arranged together for the good ending.沉湎于虛幻的夢想而忘記現實的生活是毫無益處的。
It does not do to dwell on dreams and forgot to live.(dwell :居住于、存在于)
得意時,朋友識我。失意時,我識朋友。
In prosperity our friends know us.In adversity we know our friends.(adversity:逆境、不幸、災難)
邁向任何地方的第一步,就是下決心不在原地踏步。
The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.每段故事都有一個結局,但是在人的一生中,每個終點同時也是一個新的起點。Everything has an end.But in life, every ending is just a new beginning.生活不是發現你自己,而是創造你自己。
Life is not find yourself, life is creating yourself.不去嘗試,就什么也不可能。
Anything unattempted remains impossible.有時候,幸福只需轉變一下自己的態度。
Sometimes happiness is just a matter of attitude adjustment.不必變得強壯,而是讓內心強大。
It’s not always necessary to be strong, but to feel strong.如果你等的船沒有向你駛來,那你就朝它游過去吧。
If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to it.每天醒來都要變得比昨天更強大,只是恐懼,擦干淚水。
Wake up stronger than yesterday, face your fear and wipe your tears.

《泰坦尼克號》全部英文劇本
TV REPORTER: Treasure hunter Brock Lovett is best known for finding Spanish gold off islands in the best Caribbean.LIZZY: It’s OK, I’ll get you in a minutes.Come on.TV REPORTER: Now he is using Russian subs to reach the most famous shipwreck of all, the Titanic.He is with us live via satellite from the research ship Keldysh in the North Atlantic.Hello, Brock.BROCK: Hello, Tracy.Of course everyone knows the familiar stories of Titanic.You know, the nobility, the band playing at the very end and all that.But what I’m interested in are the untold stories, the secrets locked deep inside the hull of Titanic.We’re out here using robot technology to go further into the wreck that anybody has done before.TV REPORTER: Your expedition is at the center of a storm of controversy over salvage rights, and even ethics.Media are calling you a grave robber.BROCK: Well, nobody ever called the recovery of the artifacts… LIZZY: What is it?
OLD ROSE: Turn that up, dear.BROCK: I have museum-trained experts out here making sure that these relics are preserved and catalogued properly.Take a look at this drawing that we found just today, a piece of paper that has been under water for 84 years, and my team were able to preserve it, intact.Should this have
/ 308
remained unseen at the bottom of the ocean for eternity when we can see it and enjoy it now?
OLD ROSE: Well, I’ll be goddamned!BUELL: There is a satellite call for you!
BROCK: Buell, we are launching!Can’t you see these submersibles going in the water?
BUELL:Trust me, buddy!You want to take this call!
BROCK: Great!This is Brock Lovett.How can I help you, Mrs.....BRULL: Calvert.Rose Calvert.BROCK: Mrs.Calvert.OLD ROSE: I was just wondering if you had found the Heart of the Ocean yet, Mr.Lovett?
BUELL: I told you wanted to take the call.BROCK: All right.You have my attention, Rose.Can you tell us who the woman in the picture is?
OLD ROSE: Oh, yes.The woman in the picture is me.OLD ROSE: Yes?
BROCK: Are your state rooms all right?
OLD ROSE: Oh, yes.Very nice.Oh, have you met my granddaughter, Lizzy? She takes care of me.LIZZY: We met just a few minutes ago, remember Nanna, up on deck? OK.OLD ROSE: There.That’s nice.I have to have my pictures with me when I
/ 308
travel.BROCK: Can I get you anything? Is there anything you would like? OLD ROSE: Yes.I would like to see my drawing.BROCK: Louis the Sixteenth wore a fabulous stone that was called the Blue Diamond of the Crown, which disappeared in 1792, About the same time old Louis lost everything from the neck up.The theory goes that the Crown Diamond was chopped too, to be cut into a heart-like shape that became known as the Heart of the Ocean.Today it would be worth more than the Hope Diamond.OLD ROSE: It was a dreadful heavy thing.I only wore it this once.LIZZY: You actually think this is you, Nanna? OLD ROSE: It is me, dear.Wasn’t I a dish?
BROCK: I tracked it down through insurance records, an old claim that was settled under terms of absolute secrecy.Can you tell me who the claimant was, Rose?
OLD ROSE: I should imagine it was someone named Hockley.BROCK: Nathan Hockley.That’s right.Pittsburgh steel tycoon.The claim was for a diamond necklace his son Caledon had bought his fiancée-you-a week before he sailed on Titanic.It was filed right after the sinking.So the diamond had to have gone down with the ship.Do you see the date? LIZZY: April 14, 1912.3 / 308
BUELL: Which means if your grandmother is who she says she is, she was wearing the diamond the day the Titanic sank.BROCK: And that makes you my new best friend.BUELL: There are some of the things we recovered from your state room.OLD ROSE: This was mine.How extraordinary.And it looks the same as it did the last time I saw it.The reflection has change a bit.BROCK: Are you ready to go back to Titanic?
BODINE: OK.Here we go!She hits the berg on the starboard side, right? She kind of bumps along, punching holes like Morse code, Dit, dit,dit along the side, below the water line.Then the forward compartments start to flood.Now as the water level rises, it spills over the watertight bulkhead, which unfortunately don’t go any higher than E-deck, so now as the bow goes down, the stern rise up, slow at first, then faster and faster, until finally she’s got her whole ass sticking up in the air.And that’s a big ass.We’re talking 20,30 thousand tons.OK.And the hull’s not designed to deal with that pressure, so what happens? Schkee-she splits right down to the keel and the stern section just kind of bobs there like a cork for a couple of minutes, floods, then finally goes under about 2:20am, 2 hours and 40 minutes after the collision.The bow section planes away, ending about half a mile away, going 20 or 30 knots when it hits the ocean floor.Brrrroo!Brrooo!Pretty cool, huh?
OLD ROSE: Thank you for that fine forensic analysis, Mr.Bodine.Of
/ 308
course, the experience of it was somewhat different.BROCK: Will you share it with us? LIZZY: I’m taking her to rest.OLD ROSE: No!LIZZY: Come on, Nanna.OLD ROSE: No!BROCK: Tell us.Rose.OLD ROSE: It’s been 84 years.BROCK: It’s OK.Just try and remember anything.Anything at all.OLD ROSE: Do you want to hear or not, Mr.Lovett? It’s been 84 years, and I can smell the fresh paint.The china had never been used.The sheets had never been slept in.Titanic was called “The Ship of Dreams”, and it was.It really was.It was the ship of dream to everyone.To me, it was a slave ship, taking me back to America in chains.Outwardly, I was everything a well-brought up girl should be.Inside, I was screaming.JACK: All right.The moment of truth.Somebody’s life is about to change.Fabrizzio.FABRIZZIO: Niente.ANOTHER: Niente.JACK: Olaf? OLAF: Nothing.JACK: Sven?
/ 308
JACK: Uh, oh..Two pairs.I’m sorry, Fabrizio.FABRIZIO: Who’s sorry?
JACK: I’m sorry you’re not going to see your mom again for a long time, cause we’re going to America!Full house, boys!JACK: Yeah!
JACK: Come on!I’m going home!I’m going home!FABRIZIO: I go to America!
PUB KEEPER: No mate!Titanic go to America.In five minutes!JACK: Shit!Come on!What’s here!What’s here….JACK: We’re riding it high style now!We’re a couple o’regular swells!We’re practically goddamn royalty, ragazzomio!
FABRIZIO: You see, like I tell you, I go to America to be a millionaire.You ‘re fozzo!
JACK: I may be crazy, but I got the tickets!Come on, I thought you were fast!
FABRIZIO: Faster!
JACK: Hey, wait!Wait!Wait!Wait!Wait!Wait!Hey, wait!We’re passengers!We’re passengers!
MAN: Have you been though the inspection cue?
JACK: Of course.Anyway, we don’t have any lice.We’re Americans.Both of us.MAN: Right.Come on board.6 / 308
JACK: We’re the luckiest sons-of –bitches in the world, you know that!STEWARD: Upper deck.We’re boarding please.OLD ROSE: At Cherbourg, a woman came aboard named Margaret Brown.We all called her Molly.History would call her the “Unsinkable Molly Brown.”
Molly: Well, I wasn’t about to wait all day for you, sonny.Here.Do you think you can manage? PORTER: Yes.OLD ROSE: Her husband had struck gold someplace out west, and she was what mother called, “new money.” By the next afternoon, we were steaming west from the coast of Ireland, with nothing out ahead of us but ocean.CAPTAIN SMITH: Take it to sea, Mr.Murdoch.Let’s stretch her legs.MURDOCH: Yes, sir.Full ahead, Mr.Moody.MOODY: All ahead full!SAILOR: All ahead full!
SAILOR: Come on lads, look lively!
ISMAY: She is the largest moving object ever made by the hand of man in all history.And our master shipbuilder Mr.Andrews, here, designed her from the keel plates up.ANDREWS: Well, I may have knocked her together, but the idea was Mt.Ismay’s.He envisioned a steamer so grand in scale and so luxurious in its
/ 308
appointments that its supremacy would never be challenged.And here she is, willed into solid reality.ALL:Here, here!
RUTH: You know I don’t like that Rose.CAL: She knows.We’ll both have the lamb.Rare, with very little mint sauce.You like lamb, right, sweet pea?
MOLLY: You gonna cut her meat for her too there, Call? Hey, who thought of the name Titanic? Was it you, Bruce?
ISMAY: Well, yes, actually.I wanted to convey sheer size, and size means stability, luxury, and above all, strength.ROSE: Do you know of Dr.Freud, Mr.Ismay? His ideas about the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest you.RUTH: What’s gotten into you? ROSE: Excuse me.RUTH: I do apologize.MOLLY: She is a pistol, Cal.I hope you can handle her.CAL: Well, I may have to start minding what she reads from now on, won’t I, Mrs.Brown?
ISMAY: Freud.Who is he? Is he a passenger? JACK: Don’t do it!
ROSE: Stay back!Don’t come any closer!
JACK: Come on!Just give me your hand and I’ll pull you back over.8 / 308
ROSE: No!stay where you are!I mean it!I’ll let go!JACK: No you won’t!
ROSE : What do you mean, No I won’t? Don’t presume to tell me what I will and will not do.You don’t know me.JACK: Well, you would have done it already.ROSE: You’re distracting me.Go away!
JACK: I can’t.I’m involved now.You let go, and I’m gonna have to jump in there after you.ROSE: Don’t be absurd.You’d be killed.JACK: I’m a good swimmer.ROSE: The fall alone would kill you.JACK: It would be hurt, I’m not saying it wouldn’t.To tell you the truth, I’m a lot more concerned about that water being so cold.ROSE: How cold?
JACK: Freezing.Maybe a couple of degrees over.Have you ever , uh, ever been to Wisconsin? ROSE: What?
JACK: Well, they have some of the coldest winters around.I grew up there, near Chippewa Falls.I remember when I was a kid, me and my father, we went ice-fishing out on Lake Wisota.Ice-fishing is, you know, when you…
ROSE: I know what ice-fishing is!
/ 308
JACK: Sorry.You just seemed like, you know, kind of an indoor girl.Anyway, I, uh, I fell through some thin ice, and I’m telling you ya, water that cold, like right down there, it hits you like a thousand knives stabbing you all over your body.You can’t breathe, you can’t think, at last not about anything but the pain.Which is why I’m not looking for ward to jumping in there after you.Like I said, I don’t have a choice.I guess I’m kind of hoping that you’ll come back over the railing and get me off the hook here.ROSE: You’re crazy!
JACK: That’s what everybody says, but with all due respect, miss, I’m not the one hanging off the back of a ship here.Come on!Come on, give me your hand.You don’t want to do this.JACK: Whew.I’m Jack Dawson.ROSE: Rose Dewitt Buchater.JACK: I’m going to have to get you to write that one down.Come on.JACK: I’ve got you!Come on!Come on!ROSE: Help me, please!
JACK: Listen.Listen to me.I’ve got you and I won’t let go.Now pull yourself up.Come on!Come on!Try!You can do it!JACK: I got you!SAILOR: What’s all this?
SAILOR: Stand back and don’t move an inch!Fetch the master-at-arms!
/ 308
CAL: This is completely unacceptable!What make you think that you could put your hands on my fiancée!Look at me, you filth!ROSE: Cal.CAL: What did you think you were doing? ROSE: Cal!Stop!It was an accident!CAL: An accident?
ROSE: It was.Stupid, really.I was leaning over and I slipped.I was leaning far over to see the ah, ah, ah, um… CAL: Propellers?
ROSE: Propellers.And I, um, slipped, and I would have gone overboard, but Mr.Dawson here saved me, and almost went over himself.CAL: You wanted to see the… She wanted to see the propellers.GRACIE: Like I said, women and machinery do not mix.MASTER AT ARMS: Was that the way of it? JACK: Yeah.Yeah, that was pretty much it.GRACIE: Well, the boy’s a hero then.Good for you, son.Well done.So, it’s all’s well and back to our brandy, eh? CAL: You must be freezing, let’s get you inside.GRACIE: Um, perhaps a little something for the boy? CAL: Of course.Uh, Mr.Lovejoy, I think a twenty should do it.ROSE: Oh, is that the going rate for saving the woman you love? CAL: Rose is displeased.What to do? I know.Perhaps you could join us
/ 308
for dinner tomorrow evening, to regale our group with your heroic tale.JACK: Sure.Count me in.CAL: Good.It’s settled then.This should be interesting.JACK: Can I, uh, bum a smoke?
LOVEJOY: You ought to tie those.It is interesting that the young lady slipped so suddenly, but you still had time to remove your jacket and your shoes.Titanic(1997)by James Cameron.BLACKNESS
Then two faint lights appear, close together...growing brighter.They resolve into two DEEP SUBMERSIBLES, free-falling toward us like express elevators.One is ahead of the other, and passes close enough to FILL FRAME, looking
like a spacecraft blazing with lights, bristling with insectile manipulators.12 / 308
TILTING DOWN to follow it as it descends away into the limitless blackness
below.Soon they are fireflies, then stars.Then gone.CUT TO: EXT./ INT.MIR ONE / NORTH ATLANTIC DEEP
PUSHING IN on one of the falling submersibles, called MIR ONE, right up to
its circular viewport to see the occupants.INSIDE, it is a cramped seven foot sphere, crammed with equipment.ANATOLY
MIKAILAVICH, the sub's pilot, sits hunched over his controls...singing softly in Russian.Next to him on one side is BROCK LOVETT.He's in his late forties, deeply tanned, and likes to wear his Nomex suit unzipped to show the gold from famous shipwrecks covering his gray chest hair.He is a wiley, fast-talking treasure hunter, a salvage superstar who is part historian, part adventurer
/ 308
and part vacuum cleaner salesman.Right now, he is propped against the CO2
scrubber, fast asleep and snoring.On the other side, crammed into the remaining space is a bearded wide-body
named LEWIS BODINE, sho is also asleep.Lewis is an R.O.V.(REMOTELY OPERATED VEHICLE)pilot and is the resident Titanic expert.Anatoly glances at the bottom sonar and makes a ballast adjustment.CUT TO: EXT.THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA
A pale, dead-flat lunar landscape.It gets brighter, lit from above, as MIR ONE enters FRAME and drops to the seafloor in a downblast from its thrusters.It hits bottom after its two hour free-fall with a loud BONK.CUT TO: INT.MIR ONE
/ 308
Lovett and Bodine jerk awake at the landing.ANATOLY
(heavy Russian accent)
We are here.EXT./ INT.MIR ONE AND TWO MINUTES LATER: THE TWO SUBS skim over the seafloor to the sound of sidescan sonar and the THRUM of big thrusters.The featureless gray clay of the bottom unrols in the lights of the subs.Bodine is watching the sidescan sonar display, where the outline of a huge
pointed object is visible.Anatoly lies prone, driving the sub, his face pressed to the center port.BODINE
/ 308
Come left a little.She's right in front of us, eighteen meters.Fifteen.Thirteen...you should see it.ANATOLY
Do you see it? I don't see it...there!
Out of the darkness, like a ghostly apparition, the bow of the ship appears.Its knife-edge prow is coming straight at us, seeming to plow the
bottom sediment like ocean waves.It towers above the seafloor, standing
just as it landed 84 years ago.THE TITANIC.Or what is left of her.Mir One goes up and over the bow railing, intact except for an overgrowth of “rusticles” draping it like mutated Spanish moss.TIGHT ON THE EYEPIECE MONITOR of a video camcorder.Brock Lovett's face
fills the BLACK AND WHITE FRAME.16 / 308
LOVETT
It still gets me every time.The image pans to the front viewport, looking over Anatoly's shoulder, to the bow railing visible in the lights beyond.Anatoly turns.ANATOLY
Is just your guilt because of estealing from the dead.CUT WIDER, to show that Brock is operating the camera himself, turning it
in his hand so it points at his own face.LOVETT
Thanks, Tolya.Work with me, here.Brock resumes his serious, pensive gaze out the front port, with the camera
aimed at himself at arm's length.17 / 308
LOVETT
It still gets me every time...to see the sad ruin of the great ship sitting here, where she landed at 2:30 in the morning, April 15, 1912, after her long fall from the world above.Anatoly rolls his eyes and mutters in Russian.Bodine chuckles and watches the sonar.BODINE
You are so full of shit, boss.Mir Two drives aft down the starboard side, past the huge anchor while
Mir One passes over the seemingly endless forecastle deck, with its massive
anchor chains still laid out in two neat rows, its bronze windlass caps gleaming.The 22 foot long subs are like white bugs next to the enormous
/ 308
wreck.LOVETT(V.O.)
Dive nine.Here we are again on the deck of Titanic...two and a half miles
down.The pressure is three tons per square inch, enough to crush us like a
freight train going over an ant if our hull fails.These windows are nine inches thick and if they go, it's sayonara in two microseconds.Mir Two lands on the boat deck, next to the ruins of the Officer's Quarters.Mir One lands on the roof of the deck hous nearby.LOVETT
Right.Let's go to work.Bodine slips on a pair of 3-D electronic goggles, and grabs the joystick controls of the ROV.OUTSIDE THE SUB, the ROV, a small orange and black robot called
/ 308
SNOOP
DOG, lifts from its cradle and flies forward.BODINE(V.O.)
Walkin' the dog.SNOOP DOG drives itself away from the sub, paying out its umbilical behind
it like a robot yo-yo.Its twin stereo-video cameras swivel like insect eyes.The ROV descends through an open shaft that once was the beautiful
First Class Grand Staircase.Snoop Dog goes down several decks, then moves laterally into the First Class Reception Room.SNOOP'S VIDEO POV, moving through the cavernous interior.The remains of
the ornate handcarved woodwork which gave the ship its elegance move through the floodlights, the lines blurred by slow dissolution and descending rusticle formations.Stalactites of rust hang down so that at
/ 308
times it looks like a natural grotto, then the scene shifts and the lines of a ghostly undersea mansion can be seen again.MONTAGE STYLE, as Snoop passes the ghostly images of Titanic's opulence: A grand piano in amazingly good shape, crashed on its side against a wall.The keys gleam black and white in the lights.A chandelier, still hanging from the ceiling by its wire...glinting as Snoop moves around it.Its lights play across the floor, revealing a champagne bottle, then some WHITE STAR LINE china...a woman's high-top “granny shoe”.Then something eerie: what looks like a child's skull resolves into the porcelain head of a doll.Snoop enters a corridor which is much better preserved.Here and there a
door still hangs on its rusted hinges.An ornate piece of molding, a wall sconce...hint at the grandeur of the past.21 / 308
THE ROV turns and goes through a black doorway, entering room B-52, the
sitting room of a “promenade suite”, one of the most luxurious staterooms on Titanic.BODINE
I'm in the sitting room.Heading for bedroom B-54.LOVETT
Stay off the floor.Don't stir it up like you did yesterday.BODINE
I'm tryin' boss.Glinting in the lights are the brass fixtures of the near-perfectly preserved fireplace.An albino Galathea crab crawls over it.Nearby are the
remains of a divan and a writing desk.The Dog crosses the ruins of the
/ 308
once elegant room toward another DOOR.It squeezes through the doorframe,scraping rust and wood chunks loose on both sides.It moves out of a cloud
of rust and keeps on going.BODINE
I'm crossing the bedroom.The remains of a pillared canopy bed.Broken chairs, a dresser.Through the
collapsed wall of the bathroom, the porcelain commode and bathtub took
almost new, gleaming in the dark.LOVETT
Okay, I want to see what's under that wardrobe door.SEVERAL ANGLES as the ROV deploys its MANIPULATOR ARMS and starts moving
/ 308
debris aside.A lamp is lifted, its ceramic colors as bright as they were in 1912.LOVETT
Easy, Lewis.Take it slow.Lewis grips a wardrobe door, lying at an angle in a corner, and pulls it with Snoop's gripper.It moves reluctantly in a cloud of silt.Under it is a dark object.The silt clears and Snoop's cameras show them what was under the door...BODINE
Ooohh daddy-oh, are you seein' what I'm seein'?
CLOSE ON LOVETT, watching his moniteors.By his expression it is like he is
seeing the Holy Grail.LOVETT
/ 308
Oh baby baby baby.(grabs the mike)
It's payday, boys.ON THE SCREEN, in the glare of the lights, is the object of their quest: a small STEEL COMBINATION SAFE.CUT TO: EXT.STERN OF DECK OF KEDYSHDAY
Technicians are carefully removing some papers from the safe and
/ 308
placing
them in a tray of water to separate them safely.Nearby, other artifacts from the stateroom are being washed and preserved.Buell is on the satellite phone with the INVESTORS.Lovett is yelling at the video crew.LOVETT
You send out what I tell you when I tell you.I'm signing your paychecks, not 60 minutes.Now get set up for the uplink.Buell covers the phone and turns to Lovett.BUELL
The partners want to know how it's going?
LOVETT
How it's going? It's going like a first date in prison, whattaya think?!
/ 308
Lovett grabs the phone from Buell and goes instantly smooth.LOVETT
Hi, Dave? Barry? Look, it wasn't in the safe...no, look, don't worry about it, there're still plenty of places it could be...in the floor debris in the suite, in the mother's room, in the purser's safe on C deck...(seeing something)
Hang on a second.A tech coaxes some letters in the water tray to one side with a tong...revealing a pencil(conte crayon)drawing of a woman.Brock looks closely at the drawing, which is in excellent shape, though its edges have partially disintegrated.The woman is beautiful, and beautifully
rendered.In her late teens or early twenties, she is nude, though posed with a kind of casual modesty.She is on an Empire divan, in a pool of light that seems to radiate outward from her eyes.Scrawled in the lower right corner is the date: April 14 1912.And the initials JD.30 / 308
The girl is not entirely nude.At her throat is a diamond necklace with one
large stone hanging in the center.Lovett grabs a reference photo from the clutter on the lab table.It is a period black-and-white photo of a diamond necklace on a black velvet jeller's display stand.He holds it next to the drawing.It is clearly the same piece...a complex setting with a massive central stone which is almost heart-shaped.LOVETT
I'll be God damned.CUT TO: INSERT
A CNN NEWS STORY: a live satellite feed from the deck of the Keldysh, intercut with the CNN studio.31 / 308
ANNOUNCER
Treasure hunter Brock Lovett is best known for finding Spanish gold in sunken galleons in the Caribbean.Now he is using deep submergence technology to work two and a half miles down at another famous wreck...the
Titanic.He is with us live via satellite from a Russian research ship in the middle of the Atlantic...hello Brock?
LOVETT
Yes, hi, Tracy.You know, Titanic is not just A shipwrick, Titanic is THE shipwreck.It's the Mount Everest of shipwrecks.CUT TO: INT.HOUSE / CERAMICS STUDIO
PULL BACK from the screen, showing the CNN report playing on a TV set in
the living room of a small rustic house.It is full of ceramics, figurines, folk art, the walls crammed with drawings and paintings...things
/ 308
collected over a lifetime.PANNING to show a glassed-in studio attached to the house.Outside it is a
quiet morning in Ojai, California.In the studio, amid incredible clutter, an ANCIENT WOMAN is throwing a pot on a potter's wheel.The liquid red clay
covers her hands...hands that are gnarled and age-spotted, but still surprisingly strong and supple.A woman in her early forties assists her.LOVETT(V.O.)
I've planned this expedition for three years, and we're out here recovering
some amazing things...things that will have enormous historical and educational value.CNN REPORTER(V.O.)
But it's no secret that education is not your main purpose.You're a treasure hunter.So what is the treasure you're hunting?
/ 308
LOVETT(V.O.)
I'd rather show you than tell you, and we think we're very close to doing just that.The old woman's name is ROSE CALVERT.Her face is a wrinkled mass, her body
shapeless and shrunken under a one-piece African-print dress.But her eyes are just as bright and alive as those of a young girl.Rose gets up and walks into the living room, wiping pottery clay from her hands with a rag.A Pomeranian dog gets up and comes in with her.The younger soman, LIZZY CALVERT, rushes to help her.ROSE
Turn that up please, dear.REPORTER(V.O.)

Your expedition is at the center of a storm of controversy over salvage rights and even ethics.Many are calling you a grave robber.TIGHT ON THE SCREEN.LOVETT
Nobody called the recovery of the artifacts from King Tut's tomb grave robbing.I have museum-trained experts here, making sure this stuff is preserved and catalogued properly.Look at this drawing, which was found today...The video camera pans off Brock to the drawing, in a tray of water.The image of the woman with the necklace FILLS FRAME.LOVETT
...a piece of paper that's been underwater for 84 years...and my team are
able to preserve it intanct.Should this have remained unseen at the
/ 308
bottom
of the ocean for eternity, when we can see it and enjoy it now...?
ROSE is galvanized by this image.Her mouth hangs open in amazement.ROSE
I'll be God damned.CUT TO: EXT.KELDYSH DECKNIGHT
Beull hands Lovett the phone, pushing down the blinking line.The call is from Rose and we see both ends of the conversation.She is in her kitchen
with a mystified Lizzy.LOVETT
This is Brock Lovett.What can I do for you, Mrs...?
/ 308
BUELL
Rose Calvert.LOVETT
...Mrs.Calvert?
ROSE
I was just wondering if you had found the “Heart of the Ocean” yet, Mr.Lovett.Brock almost drops the phone.Bobby sees his shocked expression...BUELL
I told you you wanted to take this call.LOVETT

(to Rose)
Alright.You have my attention, Rose.Can you tell me who the woman in the picture is?
ROSE
Oh yes.The woman in the picture is me.CUT TO: EXT.OCEANDAY
Brock and Bodine are watching Mir 2 being sweng over the side to start a dive.BODINE
She's a goddamned liar!A nutcase.Like that...what's her name? That Anastasia babe.BUELL
They're inbound.Brock nods and the three of them head forward to meet the approaching helo.BODINE
She says she's Rose DeWitt Bukater, right? Rose DeWitt Bukater died on
/ 308
the
Titanic.At the age of 17.If she'd've lived, she'd be over a hundred now.LOVETT
A hundred and one next month.BODINE
Okay, so she's a very old goddamned liar.I traced her as far back as the 20's...she was working as an actress in L.A.An actress.Her name was Rose
Dawson.Then she married a guy named Calvert, moved to Cedar Rapids, had
two kids.Now Calvert's dead, and from what I've heard Cedar Rapids is dead.The Sea Stallion approaches the ship, BG, forcing Brock to yell over the rotors.LOVETT
/ 308
And everyobody who knows about the diamond is supposed to be dead...or on
this ship.But she knows about it.And I want to hear what she has to say.Got it?
CUT TO: EXT.KELDYSH HELIPAD
IN A THUNDERING DOWNBLAST the helicopter's wheels bounce down on the helipad.Lovett, Buell and Bodine watch as the HELICOPTER CREW CHIEF hands out about
ten suitcases, and then Rose is lowered to the deck in a wheelchair by Keldysh crewmen.Lizzy, ducking unnecessarily under the rotor, follows her
out, carrying FREDDY the Pomeranian.The crew chief hands a puzzled Keldysh
crewmember a goldfish bowl with several fish in it.Rose does not travel light.42 / 308
HOLD ON the incongruous image of this little old lady, looking impossibly fragile amongst all the high tech gear, grungy deck crew and gigantic equipment.BODINE
S'cuse me, I have to go check our supply of Depends.CUT TO: INT.ROSE'S STATEROOM / KELDYSH-DAY
Lizzy is unpacking Rose's things in the small utilitarian room.Rose is placing a number of FRAMED PHOTOS on the bureau, arranging them carefully
next to the fishbowl.Brock and Bodine are in the doorway.LOVETT
Is your stateroom alright?
/ 308
ROSE
Yes.Very nice.Have you met my granddaughter, Lizzy? She takes care of me.LIZZY
Yes.We met just a few minutes ago, grandma.Remember, up on deck?
ROSE
Oh, yes.Brock glances at Bodine...oh oh.Bodine rolls his eyes.Rose finishes arranging her photographs.We get a general glimpse of them: the usual snapshots...children and grandchildren, her late husband.ROSE
There, that's nice.I have to have my pictures when I travel.And Freddy of course.44 / 308
(to the Pomeranian)
Isn't that right, sweetie.LOVETT
Would you like anything?
ROSE
I should like to see my drawing.CUT TO: INT.LAB DECK, PRESERVATION AREA
Rose looks at the drawing in its tray of water, confronting herself across a span of 84 years.Until they can figure out the best way to preserve it, they have to keep it immersed.It sways and ripples, almost as if alive.TIGHT ON Rose's ancient eyes, gazing at the drawing.45 / 308 FLASHCUT of a man's hand, holding a conte crayon deftly creating a shoulder and the shape of her hair with two efficient lines.THE WOMAN'S FACE IN THE DRAWING, dancing under the water.A FLASHCUT of a man's eyes, just visible over the top of a sketching pad.They look up suddenly right into the LENS.Soft eyes, but fearlessly direct.Rose smiles, remembering.Brock has the reference photo of the necklace in his hand.LOVETT
Louis the Sixteenth wore a fabulous stone, called the Blue Diamond of the
Crown, which disappeared in 1792, about the time Louis lost everything from
the neck up.The theory goes that the crown diamond was chopped too...recut into a heart-like shape...and it became Le Coeur de la Mer.The
/ 308
Heart of the Ocean.Today it would be worth more than the Hope Diamond.ROSE
It was a dreadful, heavy thing.(she points at the drawing)
I only wore it this once.LIZZY
You actually believe this is you, grandma?
ROSE
It is me, dear.Wasn't I a hot number?
LOVETT
I tracked it down through insurance records...and old claim that was
/ 308
settled under terms of absolute secrecy.Do you know who the claiment was, Rost?
ROSE
Someone named Hockley, I should imagine.LOVETT
Nathan Hockley, right.Pittsburgh steel tycoon.For a diamond necklace his
son Caledon Hockley bought in France for his fiancee...you...a week before he sailed on Titanic.And the claim was filed right after the sinking.So the diamond had to've gone down with the ship.(to Lizzy)
See the date?
LIZZY
/ 308
April 14, 1912.LOVETT
If your grandma is who she says she is, she was wearing the diamond the day Titanic sank.(MORE)
LOVETT(CONT'D)
(to Rose)
And that makes you my new best friend.I will happily compensate you for
anything you can tell us that will lead to its recovery.ROSE
