第一篇：喬治·福斯特·皮博迪英文介紹

Intorduce of George Henry Peabody

Early life

He was born to George Henry Peabody and Elvira Peabody(née Canfield)as the first of four children.Both parents were native New Englanders of colonial ancestry.George Henry Peabody, who came from a line of merchants, bankers and professional men, had moved from Connecticut to Columbus, Georgia, where he ran a prosperous general store.After attending private school in Columbus, young Peabody spent a few months at Deer Hill Institute in Danbury, Connecticut.The Civil War, however, impoverished his family, and in 1866 they moved to Brooklyn, New York and young Peabody went to work in a wholesale dry goods firm, advancing rapidly.Business career

In the evenings Peabody read extensively at the library of the Brooklyn Y.M.C.A., which he later called his “alma mater”, and also took part in the activities of the Reformed Church in Brooklyn Heights, where he met and became good friends with young investment banker Spencer Trask.On May 2, 1881, Peabody became a partner in the new firm of Spencer Trask & Company.During the 1880s and 1890s this investment house took a leading part in financing electric lighting corporations, sugar beet and other industrial enterprises, and railroad construction in the western United States and Mexico.Peabody himself handled most of the firm's railroad investments, working in close association with William J.Palmer.He also became a director in numerous corporations.Peabody, his brother Charles Jones Peabody and Spencer Trask amassed a great portion of their wealth from the Edison Electric Company.Trask served as president of Edison Electric Illuminating, and when J.P.Morgan—protégé of New England businessman/philanthropist George Peabody—financier of Edison Electric, merged all into the General Electric Company in 1892, George Foster Peabody became a member of the GE board of directors.Social activism

Peabody retired from business in 1906 to pursue a life of public service.Long interested in social causes, he supported such progressive ideas as the single tax as advocated by Henry George in his book Progress and Poverty, free trade, women's suffrage and government ownership of railroads.He was also active in the anti-war movement.He was also interested in education, particularly in the South and also particularly for African-Americans.He served as director of the General Education Board, treasurer of the Southern Education Board and on the boards of trustees of the American Church Institute for Negroes, Hampton in Virginia, Tuskegee in Alabama, the University of Georgia, and the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute.Political activities

From early in his life Peabody was interested in Democratic Party politics.In the early 1880s, he helped his close friend Edward M.Shepard organize the Young Men's Democratic Club of Brooklyn, took a part in the 1892 presidential campaign on behalf of Grover Cleveland, supported the Gold Democrats against William Jennings Bryan in 1896, then switched to more moderate

monetary reform as a member of the executive committee of the Indianapolis Monetary Convention in 1897.In 1904 and 1905 he served as treasurer of the Democratic National Committee.Although he declined to run for political office, and declined President Wilson's offer of a place on the Federal Trade Commission, Peabody was an unofficial counselor to many government officials.From 1914 to 1921 he served on the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank in New York.In June 1932 Franklin Delano Roosevelt, then Governor of New York, visited Peabody for advice and support in deciding to run for President of the United States.Philanthropic activities

Peabody served from 1884 to 1930 as a trustee of Hampton University, one of Virginia's historically black universities, where he established in the university library the Peabody Collection of rare materials on African-American history, one of the largest collections in the United States.In 1901 Peabody donated land for Peabody Park at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.[1]

Warm Springs, Georgia

After years of visiting the estate of his partner Spencer Trask in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., Peabody agreed to succeed him in 1910 as chairman of the state commission set up to purchase and conserve the famous spa there, and in 1923 he acquired the property at Warm Springs, Georgia near his boyhood home.In 1924 he invited his friend Franklin Delano Roosevelt(who had recently contracted a paralytic illness)to visit the 90 degree Fahrenheit springs there, which Roosevelt eventually purchased and turned into the Little White House and the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation, expanding it from a limited rehab center into a full-service center.Honorary degrees

While his formal education was limited and he had no college degree, Peabody received honorary degrees from Harvard and Washington and Lee Universities in 1903, and the University of Georgia in 1906.This latter institution was the recipient of much of Peabody's philanthropy, including funds to build a fireproof building to house the university's library.He also donated land to help reorganize the State College of Agriculture, and founded the university's School of Forestry.George Foster Peabody Awards

Perhaps Peabody's best-known legacy is the George Foster Peabody Awards, presented annually since 1941 by the Henry W.Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication for excellence in radio, and, since 1948, television broadcasting, followed by World Wide Web content in the late 1990s.Personal life

A tall man, in later years he developed a mane of white hair, and wore a heavy mustache and pointed beard, becoming known for his dignified and courtly manner.He maintained a mansion in

Brooklyn, where he entertained lavishly.He also purchased a summer home known as Abenia at Lake George, where he spent most of each year.He was frequently a guest at Yaddo, the Saratoga estate of Spencer Trask and his wife, Katrina Trask, and from both estates he developed a wide circle of influence, including many persons from the literary world, church, business, and government, who came to enjoy his gracious hospitality.A lifelong bachelor, in 1920, eleven years after Trask's death in a railroad accident, Peabody married his widow Katrina, and they lived at Yaddo until her death in 1922.Thereafter Yaddo became a great retreat for artists.Peabody continued to live on the estate, and in 1926 he adopted a daughter, Mrs.Marjorie P.Waite, a young woman whom he had come to know in connection with his civic and humanitarian activities and who aided him in them.Peabody died in 1938 at his home in Warm Springs, Georgia.

第五篇：博迪眨眼寫作

博迪眨眼寫作

博迪是一名法國記者。他在一次心臟病發作后四肢癱瘓，只有左眼可以活動。但他決心把打好腹稿的作品《潛水衣與蝴蝶》寫出來，于是他要求筆錄員門迪寶協助他，每天花6小時筆錄他的著述。而他們之間的溝通只能靠左眼的眨動來完成。每次，門迪寶按順序讀出法語常用字母，博迪每眨眼一次表示字母正確，眨兩次表示錯誤，然后拼成詞語。這種常人難以想象的“寫作”終于在數月后奇跡般地完成了。這本150頁的著作已被出版，受到人們的歡迎。

分析：“博迪眨眼寫作”的事跡讓我們想到史蒂芬·霍金，身體上的極度殘缺卻絲毫不能阻止他們在文學及科學研究上的昂首闊步。

史蒂芬．霍金的事跡,介紹

霍金1942年出生于英國牛津，出生當天正好是伽利略逝世300年忌日，父親法蘭克是畢業于牛津大學的熱帶病專家，母親伊莎貝爾1930年代于牛津研究哲學、政治和經濟

史蒂芬·威廉·霍金的生平是非常富有傳奇性的，在科學成就上，他是有史以來最杰出的科學家之一，他的貢獻是在他20年之久被盧伽雷氏癥禁錮在輪椅上的情況下做出的，這是真正的空前絕后。他的貢獻對于人類的觀念有深遠的影響，所以媒介早已有許多關于他如何與全身癱瘓作搏斗的描述。所以說，上帝對每個人都是公平的。他有身體上的缺陷，可頭腦聰明的很！盡管如此，譯者（吳忠超）之一于1979年第一回見到他時的情景至今還歷歷在目。那是第一次參加劍橋霍金廣義相對論小組的討論班時，身后門一打開，腦后忽然響起一種非常微弱的電器的聲音，回頭一看，只見一個骨瘦如柴的人斜躺在電動輪椅上，他自己驅動著電開關。譯者盡量保持禮貌而不顯出過分吃驚，但是他對首次見到他的人對其殘疾程度的吃驚早已習慣。他要用很大努力才能舉起頭來。在失聲之前，只能用非常微弱的變形的語言交談，這種語言只有在陪他工作、生活幾個月后才能通曉。他不能寫字，看書必須依賴于一種翻書頁的機器，讀文獻時必須讓人將每一頁攤平在一張大辦公桌上，然后他驅動輪椅如蠶吃桑葉般地逐頁閱讀。人們不得不對人類中居然有以這般堅強意志追求終極真理的靈魂從內心產生深深的敬意。

霍金的魅力不僅在于他是一個充滿傳奇色彩的物理天才，也因為他是一個令人折服的生活強者。他不斷求索的科學精神和勇敢頑強的人格力量深深地吸引了每一個知道他的人。患有肌肉萎縮性側索硬化癥的他，幾乎全身癱瘓，不能發音，但1988年仍出版《時間簡史》，至今已出售逾2500萬冊，成為全球最暢銷的科普著作之一。

他被世人譽為“在世的最偉大的科學家”“另一個愛因斯坦”“不折不扣的生活強者”“敢于向命運挑戰的人”“宇宙之王”。

貝多芬的事跡

貝多芬生活道路非常坎坷，晚年失聰；他從1796年26歲時開始便已感到聽覺日漸衰弱，但直到1801年，當他確信自己的耳疾無法醫治時，才把這件事情告訴給他的朋友。但是，他對藝術的愛和對生活的愛戰勝了他個人的苦痛和絕望--苦難變成了他的創作力量的源泉。在這樣一個精神危機發展到頂峰的時候，貝多芬以堅強的意志克服了重重困難他開始創作他的樂觀主義的第三“英雄”交響曲。“英雄”交響曲標志著貝多芬的精神的轉機，同時也標志著他創作的“英雄年代”的開始。

貝多芬在維也納的后一階段，由于歐洲正經歷著嚴重的政治反動時期，即梅特涅的反動統治特別的猖獗的時期，他的創作也暫時呈現頹勢（1813－1817）。從1818年起，在貝多芬一生的最后十年當中（1818一1827），他在耳朵全聾、健康情況惡化和生活貧困，精神上受到折磨的情況下，仍以巨人般的毅力創作了《第九“合唱”交響曲》，總結了他光輝的、史詩般的一生并展現了人類的美好愿望。
