when i was nine years old i went off to summer camp for the first time. and my mother packed me a suitcase full of books, which to me seemed like a perfectly natural thing to do. because in my family, reading was the primary group activity. and this might sound antisocial to you, but for us it was really just a different way of being social. you have the animal warmth of your family sitting right next to you, but you are also free to go roaming around the adventureland inside your own mind. and i had this idea that camp was going to be just like this, but better. (laughter) i had a vision of 10 girls sitting in a cabin cozily reading books in their matching nightgowns.

camp was more like a keg party without any alcohol. and on the very first day our counselor gathered us all together and she taught us a cheer that she said we would be doing every day for the rest of the summer to instill camp spirit. and it went like this: “r-o-w-d-i-e, that's the way we spell rowdie. rowdie, rowdie, let's get rowdie.“ yeah. so i couldn't figure out for the life of me why we were supposed to be so rowdy, or why we had to spell this word incorrectly. (laughter) but i recited a cheer. i recited a cheer along with everybody else. i did my best. and i just waited for the time that i could go off and read my books.

i have a question for you. ‘do you know how to breathe?’ okay, i know what you are thinking now, “girl, are you kidding me? everybody knows how to breathe.” actually, if i were you sitting down in there one year ago, i would think, “how did she make it to the final?”

alright, seriously speaking, what i am talking about is “the art of breathing”, and it’s about breathing in a yoga way: peacefully and always under control. what it reveals is the real essence of perseverance, “in order to achieve, sometimes, you need to wait.” and when it comes to things you really want in life, it is as hard as it could possibly be.

for me, singing is a life thing. when i am singing on the stage, i feel whole-heartedly involved, and the self-fulfillment it renders is inexplicably thrilling. but with all the realistic problems i need to face in life, all those i want seem too far to be true– so far that i am terrified that i will never ever be able to get there and that gradually i will be carried away by the currents and torrents of life. i’ve been drowned into this ambivalence for so long. now, with a refined perspective towards self-realization, i am waiting, in a graceful posture, and knowing that i am going to get there. and on this, i should say, i owe yoga a thank-you.

i still remember, about one year ago, i attended a yoga course for the very first time. and to tell you the truth, i went there for a nice figure. however, after practicing for some time, i discovered that there was an ineffable inner-strength burgeoning sneakily in me while i totally focused. in order not to let go this significant power, i started to picture all i wanted in my mind while i was fully concentrating, for i believe the wings of imagination could make things possible. i learned to breathe with my dreams, shaping the eagerness into this elegant gesture of persisting.

and now, if you ask me what exactly is “the art of breathing”, i would say it is indeed “the art of living”. it combines the search of balance, the grace of patience, and the awareness of appreciation.

so even though feelings are tied up with life routines, i could still hold onto that free ego which i have always adored: the girl who is singing under the spotlight, with all her heart and soul; the girl who is persevering with all she believes in and always feels grateful for what has been bestowed on her.

that girl is now standing right here in front of you, hoping that you are all as lucky as she is, living with dreams and love. no matter how tough things get, i tell myself, i tell myself that, every single thing i am doing now is every step closer to that very moment of my trajectory, just like every yoga breath to every blossom moment of my life.

dear every leader, teacher, dear students: hello, everyone, the title of my speech today is: "i love reading!

in the blue sky, who is the most happy? is the bird, because the blue sky gave the bird a pair of hard wings; in the vast sea, who is the most cheerful? is the fish, because the sea gave the fish a vast world; if you ask me what is the most happy, i will not hesitate to answer: read! because the book gave me infinite knowledge, gave me the wisdom of the mind, the book gave me a broad world. i think the happiest thing in the world is reading a book. in the book to read, in the hands of the a treasure, opened the read that a pious. when you read, your mind in it in the book, your emotional ups and downs in the book, this is the charm of the book.

when i was a child, i grew up in mother's story. in each night, under the soft light, mother began to tell me interesting story books, listened, i slowly, unwittingly entered the sweet dreams - in blue in the night sky leisurely, i seem to become a star with wings, flying freely in the universe... suddenly, i dreamed that he turned into a story of bambi, kindhearted dwarfs, poor stray dogs, stray cats... listen to mother those amazing beautiful story, staring at the mother's hand book, i started to know, the original there are so many interesting stories in the book! from then on i began to love books,

in my spare time, i like a man immersed in the sea of book, taste the story in the book quietly. i was down to the little match girl sympathize with tears; had to "the emperor's new clothes" stupid emperor and laugh; more madame curie, nobel they pursue science, strong dedication spirit and moved. i was like a busy little bees, tirelessly to collect pollen in gardens, and like a sponge, day and night to water in the ocean of knowledge. i learned from the book in infinite wisdom and power. when i grow up, i have a more profound meaning of the story in the book. great poet johann wolfgang von goethe once said "reading a good book, like with a group of noble person dialogue." yes, a good book, can give us the power of the spirit.

literary masters have insight and vision, to infiltrate seen their own ideas, communicate with the reader in the book, therefore, in the book there is the spirit of the masters. "notre dame de paris" is full of fury, hugo to corrupt society is permeated with he to love, to humanitarian yearning, always flashing the light of human nature in the book; the true story of ah q like needle pierced chinese callousness of skin; "the analects" midstream shows the figure of confucius' teaching; pushkin's poetry is permeated with the hate evil rule... they taught me to identify good and evil, taught me to do good, to hate evil. from the book, i learned to appreciate and learn the true, the good and beautiful, i feel the love from the book, to understand the evil.

in the process of reading, i also met difficulties. when i read something when swallowed, the teacher taught me: to read without thinking, is equal to eat without digestion; when i was on the words in the book after, mother encouraged me: read a book hundreds of times, its righteousness; when i write a diary to write a composition was dried up, the author's teacher told me, reading books and do not accumulate, like a person in baoshan, but came back; when is indiscriminate in bookstores optional i borrow, mother advised me: read a good book, and many noble people talk, instead it is better to don't read. gradually, i see, one to read a good book, reading to accumulate, to read more to think about.

i love reading. book is the treasure house of knowledge, it is her, broadened my horizons and enriched my life; book is the ladder of human, is she, help me to improve and progress; books are the source of happiness, is her, to give me happiness, brings me satisfaction. reading, how nice!

"asked canal which had so much, to have a source to." boys and girls, let's drink the "origin", climbing the ladder of human progress, become a knowledge of the rich, the spirit of the giant! with the book, we have the whole world; with a book, we will have a better tomorrow! the classmates, and i love reading together! let elegant companion we grow happily, let books to nourish our life!

thanks to the open policy in china, more and more foreign businessmen have come to invest, building new factories, mines and other business enterprises, or enlarging and improving old ones. foreign investment is important in that it supplements the economy of our country. it has the advantage of importing foreign capital, technology, talents, advanced equipment and methods of management.

ours is a country of vast territory, abounding in natural resources and labor ign investment can help to explore the resources and make use of the labor force, thus giving our strong points to play. in a word, foreign investment may improve our economy. of course foreign investment is of mutual foreign businessmen can also reap profits, otherwise they would not come to invest.

to attract more foreign investment, we must maintain the country’s political stability to bring about a good investment while we should carry out some good policies, which makes the foreign businessmen believe that to invest in china does pay.

there was a man who had seven sons, but he had no daughter, greatly though he longed for one. at last his wife told him that they could again expect a child and, sure enough, when it was born it was a baby girl. there was great rejoicing, but the child was weak and puny, so weak that it had to be christened at once. the father told one of the boys to go quickly to the spring and fetch christening water; the other six ran along with him, and because each of them wanted to be the first to dip the jug into the well, it fell in and sank.

so there they stood and didn't know what to do, and none of them dared go home. when they didn't come back their father got impatient and said:" i'll wager they've been playing some game again and forgotten all about it, the godless brats." he was afraid the little girl would have to die unbaptized, and in his rage he cried out:" i wish those boys would all turn into ravens." he'd scarcely spoken the words when he heard a whirring of wings in the air overhead, looked up and saw seven coal-black ravens flying away.

“if i could reach higher, just for one moment to touch the sky…”---this is from my favorite song reach.

when we are appreciating the passionate melody of gloria estefan, we could hardly imagine that she could return to the stage after her paralysis. in the year 1990, this cuban singer was knocked down in a traffic accident, and the doctor declared that she might never walk again. but gloria did not give up and kept up constant exercising. just one year after the disaster, she stood up again and presented this encouraging song at the atlanta olympics.

whenever i think of gloria, i can’t help recalling my memory seven years ago, when i first entered university. naturally shy, ordinary looking, average scores in study, just like an ugly duckling, i seemed to be the least outstanding one in my class. and the successive failures in the beginning led me into despair. “am i destined to take the back seat to others?” unwilling to submit to the fate, i paid more efforts on my study as well as many other activities, film dubbing, recital, drama… cause i just want to catch every little opportunity to prove myself. constant effort yields sure success. thanks to the competition, i received some awards and most of all, i gained the courage and confidence to face any difficulties in my life journey.

life is just like farming, and what you can reap depends a lot on your sowing and dedication. once you have a dream, don’t be hesitant. your next difficult step may be the one to the top. keep going forward, even in the toughest time, and never give up.

and so i put my books away, back in their suitcase, and i put them under my bed, and there they stayed for the rest of the summer. and i felt kind of guilty about this. i felt as if the books needed me somehow, and they were calling out to me and i was forsaking them. but i did forsake them and i didn't open that suitcase again until i was back home with my family at the end of the summer.

now, i tell you this story about summer camp. i could have told you 50 others just like it -- all the times that i got the message that somehow my quiet and introverted style of being was not necessarily the right way to go, that i should be trying to pass as more of an extrovert. and i always sensed deep down that this was wrong and that introverts were pretty excellent just as they were. but for years i denied this intuition, and so i became a wall street lawyer, of all things, instead of the writer that i had always longed to be -- partly because i needed to prove to myself that i could be bold and assertive too. and i was always going off to crowded bars when i really would have preferred to just have a nice dinner with friends. and i made these self-negating choices so reflexively, that i wasn't even aware that i was making them.

now this is what many introverts do, and it's our loss for sure, but it is also our colleagues' loss and our communities' loss. and at the risk of sounding grandiose, it is the world's loss. because when it comes to creativity and to leadership, we need introverts doing what they do best. a third to a half of the population are introverts -- a third to a half. so that's one out of every two or three people you know. so even if you're an extrovert yourself, i'm talking about your coworkers and your spouses and your children and the person sitting next to you right now -- all of them subject to this bias that is pretty deep and real in our society. we all internalize it from a very early age without even having a language for what we're doing.

thank you very much for choosing to come in such a cold y my topic is about choice and process.a research shows that a man has to make 73 choices one so many choices one day, people easily get so confused and afraid of making wrong choice that they hesitate and finally miss the true part of life. in my opinion, the following part is of much more importance than the choice. there is no absolute right or wrong choice but wonderful or boring life, which the process makes the difference.

life is a box of chocolate,you never know what you will get. forrest gump made no decision by and for himself but he accomplished great success with his strong will in the process. the process is not the road itself but the attitudes and feelings ,the caution, courage and persistance we have as we encounter new experience and unexpected obstacles. take myself as an example, i changed my major when i became a postgraduate. after the choice,days have been harsh for me.i cannot understand the new lessons at all. for they are closely related to mathmatics which i learned nothing about before. however wuth the belief that this is the great chance for me to experience new ideas and challenge myself,i persisted. i asked for help from every channel and reorgonized my life. gradually i could understand some parts and even found maths over, i learned to act instead of complaining. in retrospect,the choice left no trace in my mind but the happiness and bitterness of the past four months becomes an unforgetable experience in my life.

no matter what the choice is, enjoy the process. in the process, your potential will be inspired and new discoveries,improvement and progress will come to you. these are the most beautiful sceneries and only on the way can you see e make your life colorful.

there is no need and i donnot want to judge whether it right or wrong for me to be here,but i congratulate to myself for i gain and enjoy this fantastic experience. so my dear friends,never worry about your choice and enjoy the process. i am sure you will get something new and intersting tonight after you chose to come here. thank you!
