【歌曲介绍】：Kelly Sweet 是美国歌坛新人,有些像早期的Mariah Carey,她嗓音的可塑性被誉为媲美诺拉琼斯Norah Jones、乔许葛洛班Josh Groban、蒂朵Dido等一线天王天后，被视为是新生代接班人。《We Are One》比当今广播单曲榜前40名的歌曲更富有感召力，因为它拥有在当今流行乐坛少见的深度和高雅。《We Are One》是一次珍贵的音乐旅程--它的美丽、优雅、个性和勇气所诠释出的情感，深深地触碰着每一个年龄阶段的听众。“音乐并不是属于我个人”，她说，“而 是我们所有人心灵的写照，我很高兴可以用自己的声音将这些美好的事物传达给全世界”。

    【歌词】：

    Didn't need to ask
    Don't know the reason
    Everything that I believe
    Is right here
    Not thinkin' bout tomorrow
    Couldn't catch it if I tried

    World is spinning too fast
    So I'll wait 'til it comes to me
    I love you
    You are me
    We are one

    Take me in your arms
    And flow through me
    I'll flow through you

    Steal my breath away
    Cause I'm so moved by you
    Deeper than I ever thought
    Was possible, was possible, it's everything, oh

    Difference between me and you
    It's all in where your heart lies
    And every day's another chance
    So let's get it right
    I love you
    You are me
    We are one

    Take me in your arms
    And flow through me
    I'll flow through you

    Did you lose yourself out there
    Did you lose faith and give up
    Don't turn away and hide yourself
    Cause there's a friend to make along the way
    We are the heartbeat and our souls speak
    And all the beauty I have ever dreamed

    Is right here in front of me, oh
    Is right here in front of me, oh
    I love you
    And you are me
    We are one
    Take me in your arms
    And flow through me
    I'll flow through you

Joke of Today

Excited Remarks

    Our son, at age of five, had a fascination for motorcycles. The sight of one would always bring forth squeals of delight, accompanied by excited remarks of "Look at that! Look at that! I’m going to have one of those someday," his dad’s response always was "Not as long as I’m alive."

　　One day, while our son was talking to a little friend, a motorcycle passed by. He excitedly pointed it out to the boy and exclaimed, "Look at that! Look at that! I’m getting one of those as soon as my dad dies."

A Novel Way to Park

    There was a young man, a first time driver, who tried to park a car between two others.

    He put the car into reverse and "bang" ran into the car behind him. And then he put the car back into forward gear, and "bang" hit his front end into the car in front of him. And so back and forth he went,banging both cars each time he went into reverse or forward. So the woman next to him couldn't resist asking him, "Do you always have to use your ears to park?" "Bang! Bang! Bang!" - parking by ears!

    Big Rocks

    One day, an expert in time management was speaking to a group of students and, to drive home a point, used an illustration those students will never forget.

    As he stood in front of the group of overachievers he said, "OK, time for a quiz." He pulled out a one-gallon, wide-mouth jar and set it on the table in front of him. He also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, "Is this jar full?"

    Everyone in the class yelled, "Yes." The time management expert replied, "Really?" He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel. He dumped some gravel in and shook the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the big rocks. He then asked the group once more, "Is this jar full?"

    By this time the class was on to him. "Probably not," one of them answered. "Good!" he replied. He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. Once more he asked the question, "Is this jar full?"

    "No!" the class shouted. Once again he said, "Good." Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the brim. Then he looked at the class and asked, "What is the point of this illustration?" One eager student raised his hand and said, "The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in it!"

    "No," the speaker replied, "That's not the point. The truth this illustration teaches us is if you don't put the big rocks in first, you'll never get them in at all. What are the 'big rocks' in your life? Time with your loved ones, your education, your dreams, a worthy cause, teaching or mentoring others? Remember to put these big rocks in first or you'll never get them in at all." So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are reflecting on this short story, ask yourself this question: What are the 'big rocks' in my life?

    【中文译文】：

    一天，时间管理专家为一群学生讲课。他现场做了演示，给学生们留下了一生都难以磨灭的印象。

    站在那些高智商高学历的学生前面，他说：“我们来做个小测验”，拿出一个一加仑的广口瓶放在他面前的桌上。随后，他取出一堆拳头大小的石块，仔细地一块放进玻璃瓶。直到石块高出瓶口，再也放不下了，他问道：“瓶子满了？”

    所有学生应道：“满了！”。时间管理专家反问：“真的？”他伸手从桌下拿出一桶砾石，倒了一些进去，并敲击玻璃瓶壁使砾石填满下面石块的间隙。“现在瓶子满了吗？”他第二次问道。

    但这一次学生有些明白了，“可能还没有”，一位学生应道。“很好！”专家说。他伸手从桌下拿出一桶沙子，开始慢慢倒进玻璃瓶。沙子填满了石块和砾石的所有间隙。他又一次问学生：“瓶子满了吗？”

    “没满！”学生们大声说。他再一次说：“很好！”然后他拿过一壶水倒进玻璃瓶直到水面与瓶口平。抬头看着学生，问道：“这个例子说明什么？”一个心急的学生举手发言：“无论你的时间多少，如果你确实努力，你可以做更多的事情！”

    “不！”时间管理专家说，“那不是它真正的意思，这个例子告诉我们：如果你不是先放大石块，那你就再也不能把它放进瓶子了。那么，什么是你生命中的大石头呢？也许是你的道德感、你的梦想？还有你的---切切记得先去处理这些大石块，否则，一辈子你都不能做！”我们可曾问过自己这个问题：人一生的“大石头”是什么？找出自己人生的“大石头”。

    33条攻克英语的致胜法则！33个英语成功的良好习惯！33段漂亮流畅的英文段落！每天脱口而出一条法则！每天实践一条法则。33天获得英语的巨大成功！

    You cannot improve the past but you can improve the future! When time is wasted, life is wasted!

    你不能改变过去，但你可让未来变得更好！浪费了时间，就浪费了生命！

    脱口而出下面的方法，创造伟大奇迹！成为众人仰慕的英语学习专家！

    11、Try to use what you’ve learned in everyday life.

    Dare to show off your English, especially to people who don’t speak English! The more you use English, the more fluent your English will become.

    要在每天的生活中使用你学过的东西。

    大胆卖弄你的英语，尤其是对着那些不懂英语的人！你用得越多，你的英语就会越流利。

    12、Try to create your own English environment.

    Practice with your friends, family and people you see every day. If you don’t have anyone to practice with, talk to yourself in a mirror! It sounds crazy but it will work!

    创造自己的语言环境。

    每天和你的朋友、家人和见到的人操练。如果你找不到人操练，就对着镜子自言自语！这听起来疯狂，但却很有效！

    13、Pretend you don’t speak Chinese when you are traveling on an airplane, staying in a hotel, or even ordering at McDonald’s.

    The employees in these places don’t know you and most speak some English! Forget about your face! You really will only be losing face for overseas Chinese who don’t know how to speak their mother tongue!

    坐飞机旅行时，住酒店时，甚至是在麦当劳点餐时，都可以假装你不懂中文。

    这些地方的雇员不认识你，而且大部分都会说点英语！忘记你的面子吧！就算是丢脸，你丢的也只是个不懂说母语的海外华人的脸！

    14、Make your own English study cards and carry them wherever you go.

    You will make the best use of spare time every day and reinforce your memory. This small action will produce a great result.

    自己制作英语学习卡片并随身携带。

    你可以最大程度地利用每天的空闲时光，还可以强化你的记忆力。这个小小的行动将会产生巨大的效果。

    15、To remember the new words and phrases you’ve learned, carry a small notebook to record and review the new materials.

    要记住学过的生词和短语，随身携带一个小笔记本，记录和复习新的材料。

    16、Collect English learning material everywhere!

    English magazines and newspapers are a great choice. Writing down sentences while watching American movies is another great source of reallife learning material!

    到处搜集英语学习材料！

    英语杂志和报纸都是非常好的选择。此外还有个好方法可搜集到活生生的学习材料：看美国电影的时候写下其中的句子！

    17、Any spare moment can be a great opportunity to exercise your English skills.

    One minute is enough to read a sentence 20 times. Remember, one minute can also produce miracles. Never say that you don’t have enough time to learn English!

    任何零碎时间都训练英语技能的好机会！

    一分钟足以将一个句子读20遍。记住：一分钟也可以创造奇迹。永远都不要说你没时间学英语！

    18、Try to read a short English passage every day to build up your language sense.

    This is extremely important and helpful if you want to score high on your exams. Try your best to form this great habit. We must change this situation: Reading is the weakest point for Chinese students. The only way to improve your reading ability is to read as much as possible!

    每天读一段英语短文来培养语感。

    如果你想要考试得高分，这是极其重要的，也是非常有用的。要努力养成这个好习惯。我们要改变这样的状况：中国学生在阅读上失分最多。提高阅读能力的惟一办法就是多读！

    19、Keep an English journal.

    Try to write a few sentences about your day and then blurt them out as many times as possible before you go to sleep. This will teach you to “think” in English. This habit will also help you live a move organized and fruitful life. Besides, you will score higher on your composition exams!

    坚持写英语日记。

    写几个句子描述一下你的一天，然后在睡觉前尽可能多地大声操练。这个方法可以教会你用英语“思考”。这个习惯还可以帮助你生活得更有条理、更有成效。此外，考试时作文你也可以拿更高的分！

    20、Reading loudly will greatly improve your fluency and concentration.

    You will also hear your own mistakes and be able to improve them.

    大声朗读会大大提高你的流畅度，让你更能集中注意力。

    你还可以听到自己的错误，从而可以改正。
