Olympic in Beijing , to learn English or to learn Chinese?


I don't know why I use this title, but it is the question I really want to ask. I care a lot about the Olympic game in 2008, I feel so excited that it is in Beijing.
For preparing the Olympic game, the government has done many things .People think it is good for Beijing and the Beijingers . But for me, sometimes I feel so bad about it. Something new appears, something old disappeared. And I am the person who misses the old things so much.
For preparing the Olympic game, Chinese people are learning English! But I don't think this is going to work. Imagine this: during the Olympic time, there are many people from different countries and speak different languages. The worst thing is some of them can't speak English. How can they communicate in China? I don't think Chinese people can learn so many languages in such a short time. So may be, people who want to travel to China, can learn some Chinese before they are coming. That will be easy for all of us!
I spoken to some foreigner friends, they are learning Chinese now. They are so excited about learning Chinese and going to China! They think China should provide some Chinese language service to foreigners. Some of them are learning Chinese online with eChineseLearning.com, they said that
the service helps them a lot, making them more confident to go to China!

Best gift! ——reading

Comedian David Brenner came from a poor but close family. When he graduated from high school, however,he was given an unforgetable gift."some of my friends got new clothes and a few rich kids even got new cars," he remembers."My father reached into his pants pocket and took something out .I extened my hand ,palm up ,and he let my present drop into it _ a nickel!"

Dad said to me,"Buy a newspaper with that.Read everyword of it. Then trun to the classified section and get yourself a job. Get into the world . It's all yours now."

"I always thought that was a great joke my father had played on me until a few years later when I was in the Army, sitting in a foxhole,and thinking about my family and my cars, or only clothes. My father had given me the whole world . What greater gift!"


喜剧演员 David Brenner 来自一个贫穷但是关系很亲密的家庭。在他高中毕业的时候,得到一份一辈子都不会忘记的礼物。“我的一些朋友得到了新衣服,甚至有些有钱的孩子得到了一辆新车”,他回忆道,“我的爸爸把手伸进裤子口袋,然后拿出来了什么东西。我伸出我的手,掌心向上,我爸爸把我的礼物放到了我的手心里——一枚五分硬币。”

“爸爸对我说,‘用这个钱买一份报纸。读完它的每一个字。然后到分类广告栏里,给你自己找一份工作。走向现实的世界吧。现在它都是你的了。’“

“我一直认为那是爸爸跟我开的一个很大的玩笑,直到一些年以后当我在陆军,坐在一个伞兵坑里,思考我的家庭和我的车,或者只是衣服的时候我才知道,爸爸已经给我了全世界。那是多么伟大的一个礼物啊!

My teen-age daughter was preparing to return home after having visited her grandparents for a few weeks one summer.Her grandfather gave her 12 post cards.
"Here,write us a few lines every month,"he said.
Months passed and the cards remained unused -- that is until the day this letter arrived:
Dear Jennifer,
Life is a series of stages.
As a child, I looked forward to becoming a teen-ager--that happened.
As a teen-ager,I looked forward to becoming a young man---that happened.
As a young man, I looked forward to meeting a young woman,falling in love and becoming a married man---that happened.
As a married man,I looked forward to becoming a father --- that happened.
As a father, I looked forward to becoming a grandfather to beautiful ,intelligent grandchildren ---that happened.
Then I looked forward to the day they would learn to write --- that hasn't happened yet.

一年夏天,我的十几岁的女儿在他的爷爷奶奶家度过了几个星期。回来的时候她的爷爷给了她12张明信片。
“来,每个月写点东西给我们,”他说。
一个月接着一个月的过去了,但是那些明信片并没有用,直到下面我们接到了下面这封信:
亲爱的 珍妮弗
人生由几个阶段组成。
当我是小孩子的时候,我盼望着自己能够快点长成一个十几岁的孩子---它已经发生了。
当我长到十几岁的时候,我盼望着自己能够成为一个成年的小伙子---它已经发生了 。
当我是一个年轻的小伙子的时候,我盼望着能遇到一个年轻的漂亮姑娘,我们互相爱慕然后结婚---它已经发生了 。
当我是一个已婚男士的时候,我盼望着自己能够有个孩子,当一个爸爸---他已经发生了。
当我 是一个爸爸的时候,我盼望着自己能够成为一个漂亮聪明的孩子的爷爷---它已经发生了。 然后,我盼望着她能够学会写信---它还没有发生。

Chinese and English, enjoy reading!


For several years,my job required extensive travel.After every long trip,my wife and four children met me at the door with loving hugs and kisses. During one happy home-coming, I gathered my youngest child in my arms and asked," what do you want to be when you grow up?"
Without hesitation she said, " A pilot."
" Why?" I asked , surprised.
Gazing at me intently,she replied,"So I can spend more time with you."
Shortly thereafter,i accepted a position that required for less travel.
多年以前,我有一份需要经常出差的工作。每次出差回来,我太太和四个孩子都会在门口给我温暖的拥抱和甜蜜的吻。有一次我回到家的时候,我抱起我们最小的孩子,问她:“你长大了想做什么?”
她毫不犹豫的说:”飞行员“。
”为什么呢?”,我问她。
她热切的注视着我,回答说:“这样我就可以有更多的时间和你在一起。”
那以后很快,我接受了一项新的工作,重要的是再不需要那么长时间的出差了。
