the tribulations I meet in my life and study

now that I was a senior student in college I know what I should do whenever i meet tribulations in everyday life .but i still clearly remember the time when i was a freshman . it is hard for me to overcome those difficulties.

though i insist in my mind that i was not a shy boy ,sometimes actually i was .i was afraid to speak to my classmates on the platform because i worried about making mistakes . therefore usually i did not put up my hands to ask any questions presented by the teacher during the class even if i definitely know the answer .there are many activities held by the student union in the first year ,but i seldom take part in them .what i can do was to be an audience and admire the winner in the end . what is more i have no courage to express my love to my beloved. clearl i also know she likes me but because of my flabbiness she was another boy” girl friend at last . what a pity !

as time went by gradually i become more mature in the late years . i have tried many ways to find back the self-confidence . fortunately i have succeed . i think anybody like the former me should no longer be ashamed and self-abasement . we should cherish every minute and second we own now .

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,

Today, we will go to visit Hubei Provincial Museum. On the way to the museum, I’d like to show a present to express my warmest welcome to you. You may wonder what the present is. Well let me introduce it to you. The music you are going to listen to is the very gift. Now, please enjoy the music.

Have you ever listened to the music? And what musical instrument is used to play the beautiful melody? That’s the serial bells, a wonder in the world. Indeed a wonder in the world. Every year tourists from all over the world continuously come to visit them and appreciate the programs played by it. Each year they return with unforgettable memory.

The building with red wall and green tiers before us is the very museum, Hubei Provincial Museum. Constructed in 1953, the museum is the center for collecting, studying, preserving and displaying historical and cultural relics in Hubei. More than 700,000 ancient relics are stored up in it. There is a collection of 100,000 books on history, archaeology, art etc. These relics provide precious material data for studying the development of history, culture, art, science and technology in ancient China.

Situated in the middle reach of the Yangtze River, Hubei has a long history and rich land. As early as 2,000,000 years ago, our ancestors lived and worked here and gradually they began to create their own civilization. The relics unearthed from Zenghouyi Tomb are good proofs to the civilization. The relics displayed in the museum are most from the tomb. Serial bells are the most precious and greatest of them all.

Are you familiar with the history of the serial bells?

It is said that it is the oldest musical instrument kept in the world. You see, our ancestors already knew how to use music to enrich their lives so long ago.

Last summer I went to one of the world’s most famous historical places, The Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It was the home of the emperors of the last two dynasties in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The Forbidden City was built in 1420. It stands in the center of the capital of China, Beijing. It is surrounded by high walls with dragons on each wall. The palace contains over ten thousand rooms. It was where the emperors held their court sessions with their servants.

In Mandarin, The Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City. The color of the palace itself is not purple however. The color purple is the symbolic color for the omnipotence of the great emperors of China. It was a place so sacred that the commoners could not even dream of ever going in. Even some of the officials could not go in there if uninvited.

Some of the largest festivals were also held at The Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet was consisted of a hundred and eight dishes of Chinese delicacies. It was a banquet so expensive that it could feed a commoner’s family for three generations.

Right now The Forbidden City serves as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum containing invaluable Chinese antiques and treasures.

I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to The Forbidden City. Before the trip, I always dreamed about someday of going there to see all the beautiful buildings, the treasures, and the antiques in The Forbidden City. It was like a dream come true to go on the trip and see the things that I have always wanted to see.

Men fear death, as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children, is increased with tales, so is the other. Certainly, the contemplation of death, as the wages of sin, and passage to another world, is holy and religious; but the fear of it, as a tribute due unto nature, is weak. Yet in religious meditations, there is sometimes mixture of vanity, and of superstition. You shall read, in some of the friars鈥?books of mortification, that a man should think with himself, what the pain is, if he have but his finger鈥檚end pressed, or tortured, and thereby imagine, what the pains of death are, when the whole body is corrupted, and dissolved; when many times death passeth, with less pain than the torture of a limb; for the most vital parts, are not the quickest of sense. And by him that spake only as a philosopher, and natural man, it was well said, Pompa mortis magis terret, quam mors ipsa. Groans, and convulsions, and a discolored face, and friends weeping, and blacks, and obsequies, and the like, show death terrible. It is worthy the observing, that there is no passion in the mind of man, so weak, but it mates, and masters, the fear of death; and therefore, death is no such terrible enemy, when a man hath so many attendants about him, that can win the combat of him. Revenge triumphs over death; love slights it; honor aspireth to it; grief flieth to it; fear preoccupateth it; nay, we read, after Otho the emperor had slain himself, pity (which is the tenderest of affections) provoked many to die, out of mere compassion to their sovereign, and as the truest sort of followers. Nay, Seneca adds niceness and satiety: Cogita quamdiu eadem feceris; mori velle, non tantum fortis aut miser, sed etiam fastidiosus potest. A man would die, though he were neither valiant, nor miserable, only upon a weariness to do the same thing so oft, over and over. It is no less worthy, to observe, how little alteration in good spirits, the approaches of death make; for they
