Good afternoon,ladies and gentlemen.My name is guangwu,xie.Chinese name is Xie GuangWu.The title of my speech is "How the books influence me?"
I'd like to begin with sharing an story.My last girlfriend who is beautiful and rational liked to aske me a question,* apart from sex and happiness,what else do we have?*For me,as a man,those questions are boring,we feel comfortable and happy and it's enough.I replied her with a lot different things at the first time.Two weeks later,she asked me again.This time I knew it's an important question for her.thanks goodness,I found a book called 《Everything You Know about Love and Sex Is Wrong》by Pepper Schwartz one day.I glanced it quickly,and sent it to my girlfried at once.from then on,she never asked me again.
I told this story to give you just one example from my life why the book is the biggest treasure in the world.There is a Chinese saying translates into English as follows:reading decides your depth while traveling decides your width.Let me tell how the books influence me.
Before the university,I never read exactly.There is a period that I feel everything is boring,classes,activities,associations,telephone,computer,even those famous Japanese videos.I don't know how to kill time,And one day,I start to read my first book in my university,called《穆斯林的葬礼》by 霍达.It's a book of my roommate,and I finished it in the bed.Anyhow I was absorbed by it totally.Then I know I should make a change instead of the boring life.I use an APP,Pomodoro,an application used for time managements.I make a rule that I must spend at least one hour on reading every day.And I can't stop any more.I get into a new world.It's filled with sweets,bitter,tears and laughter,all these elements present in real life,I can find them easily.If you're my roommates,sometimes,you would hear the strange voice like this:oh,gosh,it's unbelievable,it's amazing,it's ugly,it's ridiculous,and that would be me,so do I.yes,that's the magic of books,it reflects back on your life.Your experience and the contents of the books come into a circle.It drives me or people like me to keep and enjoy reading because of the circle,I think.What is book?It's a treasure created by those smart,insight people,they spend all their intelligence,energies on writing a book.We don't have any excuse to ignore the treasure.By the way,I'd like to show my great respect to those translators.While translating a book,they should refer to so many materials about the writer,books,talks,documents,and so on.If not for them,We can't appreciate the treasure of other language.
I have a dream not like Martin Luther King,I hope I can influence others as possible as I can.The books can help me step into the dream.How it works?My little sister is only 10 years old.When I became aware of the importance of reading,the first thing I did is make a reading plan for her.And I send her a book from time to time.One day,she called me,she said,hey,brother,do you have any other books,I finish all the books,send me other books,please!At that point,I know I succeeded!I really helped my sister to get the habit of reading.I truly believe that it must be helpful for her in the future.Several days ago,I send her five books all at once......I feel proud of doing this.Now,I'm guiding a girl in the University how to read.And I also make a reading plan for her in three steps.I'm single now,maybe she will be my next girl fried and who knows.
I can see problems that saying we generation rely on the screen too much.It ruined us totally.I can see them everywhere.But the word never be short of put problems.It is short of the solutions.How to solve it?From my experience,making a particular reading plan for everyone can make it greatly.
That's all,thank you.
