初中英语阅读拓展名人励志演讲我们唯一害怕的是害怕本身素材

但是,我们的苦恼决不是因为缺乏物资。我们没有遭到什么蝗虫的灾害。我们的先辈曾以信大自然仍在给予我们恩惠,人类的努力已使之倍增。富足的情景近在咫尺,但就在我们见到这种情景的时候,宽裕的生活却悄然离去。
这主要是因为主宰人类物资交换的统治者们失败了,他们固执己见而又无能为力,因而已经认定失败了,并撒手不管了。贪得无厌的货币兑换商的种种行径。将受到舆论法庭的起诉,将受到人类心灵理智的唾弃。
True, they have tried, but their efforts have been cast in the patten of an outworn tradition. Faced by a failure of credit, they have proposed only the lending of more money. Stripped of the lure of profit by which they induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to exhortation, pleading tearfully for restored confidence. They only know the rules of a generation of self-seekers. They have no vision, and when there is no vision, the people perish.
This is a day of national consecration, and I am certain that on this day, my fellow Americans expect that on my induction in the Presidency I will address them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our people impels. This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. Nor need we shrink from honestly facing the conditions facing our country today. This great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So first of all, let me express my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror, which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves, which is essential to victory. And I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.

Failure Is an Option, but Fear Is Not 失败是一个选项,但畏惧不是--詹姆斯·卡梅隆

名人励志英语演讲视频:Failure Is an Option, but Fear Is Not 失败是一个选项,但畏惧不是--詹姆斯·卡梅隆Speech to TED February, 2010关于这场演讲:James Cameron的大笔预算(票房更庞大)的电影创造出想象的世界。
在这个演讲中,他揭露了自己从小就喜欢奇幻体验的背景:阅读科幻小说,深海潜水,以及这一切如何转变成成功的巨片如《异形二》、《终结者》、《泰坦尼克号》与《阿凡达》。
I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction. In high school I took a bus to school an hour each way every day. And I was always absorbed in a book, science fiction book, which took my mind to other worlds, and satisfied, in a narrative form, this insatiable sense of curiosity that I had.And you know that curiosity also manifested itself in the fact that whenever I wasn’t in school I was out in the woods, hiking and taking “samples”——frogs and snakes and bugs, and bringing them back, looking at them under the microscope. You know, I was a real science geek. But it was all about trying to understand the world, understand the limits of possibility.And my love of science fiction actually seemed to mirrored in the world around me, because what was happening, this was in the late’ 60s, w e were going to the moon, we were exploring the deep oceans. Jacques Cousteau was coming into our living rooms with his amazing specials that showed us animals and places and a wondrous world that we could never really have previously imagined. So, that seemed to resonate with the whole science fiction part of it.And I was an artist. I could draw. I could paint. And I found that because there weren’t video games and this saturation of CG movies and all of this imagery in the media landscape, I had to create these images in my head. You know, we all did, as kids havingto read a book, and through the author’s description put something on the movie screen in our heads. And so, my response to this was to paint, to draw alien creatures,alien worlds, robots, spaceships, all that stuff. I was endlessly getting busted in math class doodling behind the textbook. That was, the creativity had to find its outlet somehow.And an interesting thing happened——Jacques Cousteau shows actually got me very excited about the fact that there was an alien world right here on Earth. I might not really go to an alien world on a spaceship someday. That seemed pretty darn unlikely. But that was a world I could really go to, right here on Earth, that was as rich and exotic as anything that I had imagined from reading these books.So, I decided I was going to become an exotic scuba diver at the age of 15. And the only problem with that was that I lived in a little village in Canada, 600 miles from the nearest ocean. But I didn’t let that daunt me. I pestered my father until he finally found a scuba class in Buffalo, New York, right across the border from where we live. And I actually got certified in a pool in a YMCA in the dead of winter in Buffalo, New York. And I didn’t see the ocean, a real ocean, for another two years, until we moved to California.Since then, in the intervening 40 years, I’ve spent about 3,000 hours underwater, And 500 hours of that were in submersibles. And I’ve learned that deep ocean environment, and even the shallow ocean, is so rich with amazing life that really is beyond our imagination. Nature’s imagination is so boundless compared to our own meager human imagination. I still, to this day, stand in absolute awe of what I see when I make these dives. And my love affair with the ocean is ongoing, and just as strong as it ever was.But, when I chose a career, as an adult, it was film making. And that seemed to be the best way to reconcile this urge I had to tell stories, with my urges to create images. And I was, as a kid, constantly drawing comic books, and so on. So, film making was the way to put pictures and stories together. And that made sense. And of course the stories that I chose to tell were science fiction stories: Terminator, Aliens and The Abyss. And with The Abyss, I was putting together my love of underwater and diving, with film making. So, you know, merging the two passions.Something interesting came out of The Abyss, which was that to solve a specific narrative problem on that film, which was to create this kind of liquid water creature, we actually embraced computer generated animation, CG. And this resulted in the first soft-surface character, CG animation that was ever in a movie. And even though the film didn’t make any money, barely broke even, I should say, I witnessed something amazing, which is that the audience, the global audience, was mesmerized by this apparent magic.You know, it’s Arthur Clarke’s law that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. They were seeing something magical. And so that got me very excited. And I thought, “Wow, this is something that needs to be embraced into the cinematic art.” So, with Terminator 2, which was my next film, we took that much farther. Working with ILM, we created the liquid metal dude in that film. The success hung in the balance on whether that effect would work. And it did. And we created magic again. And we had the same result with an audience. Although we did make a little more money on that one.So, drawing a line through those two dots of experience, came to, this is going to be a whole new world, this was a whole new world of creativity for film artists. So, I started a company with Stan Winston, my good friend Stan Winston, who is the premier make-up and creature designer at that time, and it was called Digital Domain. And the concept of the company was that we would leap-frog past the analog processes of optical printers and so on, and we would go right to digital production. And we actually did that and it gave us a competitive advantage for a while.But we found ourselves lagging in the mid’90s in the creature and character design stuff that we had actually founded the company to do. So, I wrote this piece called Avatar, which was meant to absolutely push the envelope of visual effects, of CG effects, beyond, with realistic human emotive characters generated in CG, and the main characters would all be in CG, and the world would be in CG. And the envelope pushed back. And I was told by the folks at my company that we weren’t going to be able to do this for a while.So, I shelved it, and I made this other movie about a big ship that sinks. You know, I went and pitched it to the studio as Romeo and Juliet on a ship. It’s going to be this epic romance, passionate film. Secretly, what I wanted to do was I wanted to dive to the real wreck of “Titanic”. And that’s why I made the movie. And that’s the truth. Now, the studio didn’t know that. But I convinced them. I said, “We’re going to dive to the wreck. We’re going to fil m it for real. We’ll be using it in the opening of the film. It will be really important. It will be a great marketing hook.” And I talked them into funding an expedition.Sounds crazy. But this goes back to that theme about your imagination creating a reality. Because we actually created a reality where six months later I find myself in a Russian submersible two and a half miles down in the north Atlantic, looking at the real “Titanic” through a view port, not a movie, not HD, for real.Now, that blew my mind. And it took a lot of preparation, we had to build cameras and lights and all kinds of things. But, it struck me how much this dive, these deep dives waslike a space mission. Where it was highly technical, and it required enormous planning. You get in this capsule, you go down to this dark hostile environment where there is no hope of rescue if you can’t get back by yourself. And I thought like, “Wow. I am like living in a science fiction movie. This is really cool.”And so, I really got bitten by the bug of deep ocean exploration. Of course, the curiosity, the science component of it. It was everything. It was adventure. It was curiosity. It was imagination. And it was an experience that Hollywood couldn’t give me. Because, I could imagine a creature a nd we could create a visual effect for it. But I couldn’t imagine what I was seeing out that window. As we did some of our subsequent expeditions I was seeing creatures at hydrothermal vents and sometimes things that I had never seen before, sometimes things that no one had seen before, that actually were not described by science at the time that we saw them and imaged them.So, I was completely smitten by this, and had to do more. And so, I actually made a kind of curious decision. After the success of Tit anic, I said, “Okay, I’m going to park my day job as a Hollywood movie maker, and I’m going to go be a full time explorer for a while.” And so, we started planning these expeditions. And we wound up going to the Bismark, and exploring it with robotic vehic les. We went back to the “Titanic” wreck. We took little bots that we had created that spoolled a fiber optic. And the idea was to go in and do an interior survey of that ship, which had never been done. Nobody had ever looked inside the wreck. They didn’t have the means to do it, so we created technology to do it.So, you know, here I am now, on the deck of “Titanic”, sitting in a submersible, and looking out at planks that look much like this, where I knew that the band had played. And I’m flying a little robotic vehicle through the corridor of the ship. When I say, I’m operating it, but my mind is in the vehicle. I felt like I was physically present inside the shipwreck of “Titanic”. And it was the most surreal kind of deja vu experience I’ve ever had, be cause I would know before I turned a corner what was going to be there before the lights of the vehicle actually revealed it, because I had walked the set for months when we were making the movie. And the set was based as an exact replica on the blueprints of the ship.So, it was this absolutely remarkable experience. And it really made me realize that the telepresense experience that you actually can have these robotic avatars, then your consciousness is injected into the vehicle, into this other form of existence. It was really really quite profound. And may be a little bit of a glimpse as to what might be happening some decades out as we start to have cyborg bodies for exploration or for other means in many sort of post-human futures that I can imagine, as a science fiction fan.So, having done these expeditions, and really beginning to appreciate what was down there, such as at the deep ocean vents where we had these amazing animals. They are basically aliens right here on Earth. They live in an environment of chemosynthesis. They don’t survive on sunlight based system the way we do. And so, you’re seeing animals that are living next to a 500 degree Centigrade water plumes. You think they can’t possibly exist.At the same time I was getting very interested in space science as well, again, it’s the science fiction influence, as a kid. And I wound up getting involved with the space community, really involved with NASA, sitting on the NASA advisory board, planning actual space missions, going to Russia, going to the pre-cosmonaut biomedical protocols, and all these sorts of things, to actually go and fly to the international space station with our 3D camera systems. And this was fascinating. But what I wound up doing was bringing space scientists with us into the deep. And taking them down so that they had access astrobiologists, planetary scientists, people who were interested in these extreme environments, taking them down to the vents, and letting them see, and take samples and test instruments, and so on.So, here we were making documentary films, but actually doing science, and actually doing space science. I’d completely closed the loop between being the science fiction fan, as a kid, and doing this stuff for real. And you know, along the way in this journey of discovery, I learned a lot. I learned a lot about science. But I also learned a lot about leadership. Now you think director has got to be a leader, leader of, captain of the ship, and all that sort of thing.I didn’t really learn about leadership unt il I did these expeditions. Because I had to, at a certain point, say, “What am I doing out here? Why am I doing this? What do I get out of it?” We don’t make money at these damn shows. We barely break even. There is no fame in it. People sort of think I went away between Titanic and Avatar and was buffing my nails someplace, sitting at the beach. Made all these films, made all these documentary films for a very limited audience.No fame, no glory, no money. What are you doing? You’re doing it for the task itself, for the challenge —— and the ocean is the most challenging environment there is, for the thrill of discovery, and for that strange bond that happens when a small group of people form a tightly knit team. Because we would do these things with 10-12 people working for years at a time. Sometimes at sea for 2-3 months at a time.And in that bond, you realize that the most important thing is the respect that you have for them and that they have for you, that you’ve done a task that you can’t explain tos omeone else. When you come back to the shore and you say, “We had to do this, and the fiber optic, and the attentuation, and the this and that, all the technology of it, and the difficulty, the human performance aspects of working at sea, you can’t explain it to people. It’s that thing that maybe cops have, or people in combat that have gone through something together and they know they can never explain it. Creates a bond, creates a bond of respect.So, when I came back to make my next movie, which was Avatar, I tried to apply that same principle of leadership which is that you respect your team, and you earn their respect in return. And it really changed the dynamic. So, here I was again with a small team, in uncharted territory doing Avatar, coming up wit h new technology that didn’t exist before. Tremendously exciting. Tremendously challenging. And we became a family, over a four and half year period. And it completely changed how I do movies. So, people have commented on how, well, you brought back the ocean organisms and put them on the planet of Pandora. To me it was more of a fundamental way of doing business, the process itself, that changed as a result of that.So, what can we synthesize out of all this? You know, what are the lessons learned? Well, I think number one is curiosity. It’s the most powerful thing you own. Imagination is a force that can actually manifest a reality. And the respect of your team is more important than all the laurels in the world. I have young film makers come up to me and say, “Give me some advice for doing this.” And I say, “Don’t put limitations on yourself. Other people will do that for you, don’t do it to yourself, and don’t bet against yourself. And take risks.”NASA has this phrase that they like: “Failure is not an option.” But failure has to be an option in art and in exploration, because it’s a leap of faith. And no important endeavor that required innovation was done without risk. You have to be willing to take those risks. So, that’s the thought I would leave you with, is that in whatever you’re doing, failure is an option, but fear is not. Thank you.可以失败,不能畏惧詹姆斯•卡梅隆TED大会上的演讲2010年2月在我成长过程中,科幻小说一直是我的精神食粮。
演讲稿:失败是一个选项,畏惧不是--詹姆斯·卡梅隆

失败是一个选项,畏惧不是--詹姆斯·卡梅隆1、科幻的童年我是看科幻小说长大的。
高中时,我连坐校车上下学时都在读着科幻小说。
这些书将我带到另一个世界,满足了我无止境的好奇。
每当我在学校,我总是在树丛中寻找一些“标本”——青蛙、蛇、昆虫……我把它们放在显微镜下观察。
我总是试图认知这个世界,想找到它可能的边界。
我对科幻小说的热爱或许是那个时代的写照。
60年代末期,人类登上了月球,去了深海。
通过电视,我们看到了不同的动物和地方。
这都是我们不曾想象的。
这种氛围中,我不知不觉地喜欢上了科幻小说。
每当我看完小说,故事中的影像就会在我脑海中不断放映。
或许是因为创造力必须找到一个发泄方式,我开始画外星人、机器人、飞船……我甚至会在数学课上在课本的背面画画。
对科幻小说的不断接触让我想到:外星人不一定生存在外太空,他们很有可能就生活在我们星球上。
所以15岁时,我决定成为一个潜水员。
而当时实现梦想唯一的问题是我生活在加拿大的一个小山村,离最近的海有6英里远。
但我父亲并没有让这成为我梦想的障碍,他在边境对岸的美国纽约州布法罗找到了一个潜水培训班。
于是我便在布法罗的一个泳池里获得了潜水证书。
直到两年后,当我们全家搬到加州,我才第一次有机会真正地潜水。
在这之后的40年里,我在海底大约总共花了3万个小时。
大海如此丰富多彩,众多神奇的生物生活其中。
比起我们的想象力,自然的想象力完全没有边界。
我想,至今我对大海的了解还是很少,但我对海洋的好奇却一直延续着。
2、电影魔法师与科学体验但长大后,我并没有成为一名潜水员,我选择的职业是电影。
我喜欢讲故事,画图画,电影看起来是最合适的工作。
当然,我讲述的故事都是科幻的——终结者、外星人等等。
我也将我对潜水的热爱和电影融合在了一起。
拍摄《深渊》时,我有了一些有趣的想法。
当我们要塑造一个水状的生物时,我们使用了“计算机生成动画”——CG。
CG的应用产生了电影历史上第一个软表面、电脑制成的形象。
不怕失败的事例英文作文

不怕失败的事例英文作文英文:I believe that failure is not something to be feared,but rather embraced. Failure is a natural part of the learning process and can often lead to greater success inthe future.One example of this is when I was in college and Ifailed a particularly difficult exam. At first, I was devastated and felt like a complete failure. But then I realized that this failure was an opportunity to learn and improve. I sought out help from my professor and classmates, studied harder, and ultimately ended up doing much betteron the next exam.Another example is when I started my own business. I faced many failures and setbacks along the way, but eachone taught me valuable lessons and helped me to grow as an entrepreneur. I learned to embrace failure as a necessarypart of the journey towards success.中文:我相信失败不是应该被害怕的,而是应该被接受的。
关于失败的英语演讲五篇

关于失败的英语演讲五篇失败是之母。
可失败并不可怕,只要我们汲取教训,就会走向成功。
人生要经历无数大大小小的失败。
以下是我们精心整理的关于失败的演讲五篇,下面我们就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
关于失败的英语演讲1Failure is what often happens.it is everywhere in your life.students may fail in exams, science may fail in their researchwork,and athletes may fail in competitions.although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. some people don t think their failure is a very important thing at all. so they pay no attention to it. as a result, they will have the same failure a previously later.they spend their thime and energy on useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought.Success is not easy to talk about because the word success it-self has hundreds of definitions. For some it means power, for some it means wealth, for others it is fame or great achieve-ments. But I have my own understanding of it.Success means to try your best.Many people believe that success means to win. In my opin-ion, it means to try your best when you do everything, no matter you will win or not. When you are taking part in a long-distance race, if you keep on running as fast as you can, you are successful, although you may be the last to pass the finishing-line. Because you have showed your best to others, and you have made I your greatest effort to be the winner.Success means to work hard.No one can succeed without any hard work. Karl Max was successful, because he spent more than 30 years writing the book Communist Manifesto Tomas Edison succeeded, because he had experimented thousands of times to find the best material for lights. Every success calls for hard work. If you want to suc-ceed, work hard first.other people are quite different from the two kinds of people mentiond above. instend of being distressed and lost,they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. after hard work, they will be successful in the end. It is said that failure is themother of success. success will be gained after times of failures so long as we are good at drawong lesson from our failures.in my opinion , failure is not a bad thing , the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even lose our heart after failure.More importantly, today, the world is undergoing fast rhythm of changing, some issues occur in one way this time and reoccur in another way that time.Such instability and inconstancy make many long-time-lasting conventions and traditions not valid any longer. People encounter pile of new conditions everyday in current society, it is hard to find adequate reference from the wisdom of conventions for all of these new thing, what can really lead people to success is rational mind and creative ways of thinking. To meet the requirement of new missions, only creative activities could give out adaptive strategies. Without creative thinking ways, there would no such increasingly development of science and technology in the past two centuries, no new type America-style democracy in the world, no so many products making modern life so comfortable and convenient. Creative practices and original idea are the engine of the fastdevelopment of modern life, and are most essential for people to accomplish successful achievement in all kinds of fields.关于失败的英语演讲2Perhaps the sky is still blue, but I can see the black sky. Perhaps the flowers are still beautiful, but I can see the ugly flowers. Perhaps the sun still shines, but there’s no sun in my world. Perhaps the world doesn’t change, but my world is changing. The exam has been over, but I can’t wake up because I think I did very badly.But I know, even if you didn’t do well this time, but you can do well next time. Time can’t run backwards, you can try your best to do something well in the future.I think, there’s no winning or losing in the world. Tomorrow, the sun rises again; we will have a new day!关于失败的英语演讲3Good morning. Ladies and gentlemen. Life has its ups and downs. I bet everyone here has gone through success and failures, am I right? Therefore, what s your understanding of success and failure? What do you think is the biggest success in one s life? __X, can you share youridea with us?Personally, I think success and failure are terms that don t necessarily call for a universal definition since all of us have our own definitions. That is to say, people can be successful in different areas such as in one s job and hobbies, living a successful private life, or running a successful relationship. Assume that there are two men, one is wealthy and the other is needy. The wealthy one loves making money and is always busy with his work. He is satisfied with his business though he hardly has time to have dinner with his wife and children. The needy one loves leisure. He has an easy but low-paid job so that he can have time to spendwith his family. In general, he could have delicious and warm dinner with his families every day. He s happy, too. Which one do you think is more successful in his life? In my opinion, they are both successful because they both get what they want.Everyone will be successful in his or her own area. So, never look down on anyone including yourself. One of my friends is crazy about computer games, thus neglecting his study. All the teachers regardedhim as a failure. But actually he is successful in the games. He has won the first prize in many E-sports games.Another example to support my statement. I think that everyone knows Luo Yufeng who is in America now. Severals years ago, she was under the spotlight and attracted a strong criticism. It seemed that her life was utterly a failure since everyone was laughing at her. But, I think she is successful not because she’s famous but she wanted to immigrant to America and achieved.In many cases, whether we are successful or not is judged by others, actually, we should judge it byourselves. As long as you have your own goal, you know exactly what you want, you are successful when you achieve it. So, leave all the negative comments outside the door. Be yourself, follow your own cause and enjoy your own success!Thank you sincerely!关于失败的英语演讲4Everybody will have failure.The failure is a successful mother, if there is no failure, that will not have results to show an achievement.Really,the successful man is very happy, they own fresh flowers, applause.But the person, who fail, own of only have lonesome with unfrequented.In fact, we should go to more honorific is those person of[with] failures.Because, there is failure, just have results to show an achievement.Fail don t mean you is a for failed, fail to just mean you haven t succeeded; Fail don t mean you a have no become, fail to mean you get experience; Fail don t mean you are a stupid person who don t know to improvise, failing to mean you have Attic faith; Fail don t mean you have to has been suppressing not and quickly, failing to mean you take pleasure in trying.......This is the failure, precious failure.每个人都会有失败.失败乃成功之母,假如没有失败,那就不会有成功.确实,成功的人很幸福,他们拥有鲜花,掌声.但失败的人,拥有的只有寂寞和冷落.其实,我们更加应该去尊敬的是那些失败的人.因为,有了失败,才有成功.失败并不表示你是一为失败者,失败只是表示你尚未成功; 失败并不表示你一无所成,失败表示你得到; 失败并不表示你是一个不知变通的蠢人,失败表示你有坚决的信念; 失败并不表示你必须一直压抑不快,失败表示你乐意尝试.......这就是失败,珍贵的失败.关于失败的英语演讲5There are failures and there are Failures, but the differences between bankruptcy and financial diminishment, divorce and marital strife, spiritual crisis and anomie are distinctions of degree, not kind. And they are connected. Woe in one sphere strains the seams of others. It s not pretty. And that s why failure is something you wouldn t wish on your least agreeable relative.Or would you?A theory is gaining momentum that looks at failure differently. Failure, it says, is at worst a mixed blessing: It hurts, but can pay off in the form of learning and growth and wisdom. Some psychologists, like the University of Virginia s Jonathan Haidt, go even further, arguing that adversity, setbacks, and even trauma may actually be necessary for people to be happy, successful, and fulfilled. Post-traumatic growth, it s sometimes called. Its observers are building a solid foundation under the anecdotes about wildly successful people whocredit their accomplishments to earlier failures that pushed them to the edge of the abyss.We do know that learning is error-driven—probably as a result of the brain trying to be efficient. Failures grab our attention. So many things happen the way we expect them to that mistakes register disproportionately. We re forced to integrate that new information. Researchers have found that the more wildly wrong our prediction was, the quicker we learn. The brain, you might say, feeds on failure. We are acutely sensitive to negative feedback, and this negativity bias drives learning, at least from teenagehood on up.关于失败的英语演讲五篇:。

At your age, in spite of a distinct lack of motivation at university, where I had spent far too long in the coffee bar writing stories, and far too little time at lectures, I had a knack for passing examinations, and that, for years,had been the measure of success in my life and that of my peers.我在你们这么大时,明显缺乏在大学学习的动力,我花了太久时间在咖啡吧写故事,而在课堂的时间却很少。

面对失败英文作文200

面对失败英文作文200英文:Facing failure is never easy. It can be a crushing blow to our confidence and self-esteem. However, it is important to remember that failure is not the end. It is simply a setback that we can learn from and use to become stronger and better.One of the best ways to deal with failure is to embrace it. Instead of trying to hide or ignore the fact that we failed, we should acknowledge it and use it as an opportunity to grow. We can reflect on what went wrong and what we can do differently next time. This self-reflection can be painful, but it is necessary for personal growth.Another way to deal with failure is to seek support. We should surround ourselves with people who believe in us and who can offer encouragement and guidance. This support can come from friends, family, or even a mentor or coach.Finally, we should remember that failure is a natural part of life. Everyone experiences it at some point. It is not a reflection of our worth or abilities. Instead, it is an opportunity to learn and grow.中文:面对失败从来都不容易。

失败是一个选项但畏惧不是I grew up on a steady diet of science fiction. In high school I took a bus to school an hour each way every day. And I was always absorbed in a book, science fiction book, which took my mind to other worlds, and satisfied, in a narrative form, this insatiable sense of curiosity that I had.我是看科幻小说长大的。
高中时,我每天坐一小时的公交车上下学。
我总是沉迷于科幻小说,这些书将我带到了另外的世界,用叙述的方式满足了我无止境的好奇心。
And you know that curiosity also manifested itself in the fact that whenever I wasn't in school I was out in the woods, hiking and taking "samples", frogs and snakes and bugs and pond water, and bringing it back, looking at it under the microscope. But I was, you know, I was a real science geek. But it was all about trying to understand the world, understand the limits of possibility.大家知道好奇心可以通过事实表现出来。
每当我不在学校,我总会在树林里游荡,寻找一些“样品”,比如青蛙、蛇、虫子或者池水,我把它们带回家放在显微镜下观察。
你知道,我是一个真的科学发烧友。
但我只是在试图了解这个世界,想找到潜力的极限。
And my, you know, love of science fiction actually seemed to be mirrored in the world around me, because what was happening, this was in the late 60's, you know, we were going to the moon, we were exploring the deep oceans. Jacques Cousteau was coming into our living rooms with his amazing specials that showed us animals and places and a wondrous world that we could never really have previously imagined. So, that seemed to resonate with the whole science fiction part of it.你知道,我对科幻小说的热爱或许是那个时代的写照。
因为所发生的事情,你知道,这是60年代末期,人类登上了月球,同时还去探索深海。
雅克·库斯托的特别节目走进了我们的客厅,让我们看到了不同的动物和地方,一个我们以前想都没有想过的世界。
这或许和科幻小说可以产生共鸣吧。
And I was an artist. I could draw. I could paint. And I found that because there weren't, you know, video games and this saturation of CG movies and all of this imagery in the media landscape, I had to create these images in my head. You know, we all did, as kids having to read a book, and through the author's description putsomething on the screen, the movie screen in our heads. And so, my response to this was to paint, to draw alien creatures, alien worlds, robots, spaceships, all that stuff. I was endlessly getting busted in math class, you know, doodling behind the textbook. And that was, the creativity had to find its outlet somehow.我是一个艺术家。
我会画画。
我也会画油画。
我发现,你知道,没有计算机游戏和电脑合成技术,没有媒体的那些影响,我只能自己在脑海中创造这些形象。
我们像孩子们一样,读书的时候会根据作者的描述在脑海中想象出一些画面,一些电影的画面。
我对此的反应是是画一些外星生物,外星球、机器人、宇宙飞船等东西。
在数学课上,我总是在数学课本上,你知道的,乱画。
那是发泄创造力的一种途径。
And an interesting thing happened. The Jacques Cousteau shows actually got me very excited about the fact that there was an alien world right here on Earth. I might not really go to an alien world on a spaceship someday. That seemed pretty dark and unlikely. But I could... that was a world I could really go to, right here on Earth, than was as rich and exotic as anything that I had imagined from reading these books.有趣的事情发生了,雅克·库斯托的节目让我兴奋地确定了地球上真的有我们不了解的世界。
我并不一定真的要在某一天坐飞船去找外星人。
那看起来相当渺茫,可能性不大。
但是……这是一个我真能去的地方,就在地球之上,那里和我读书时想象的一样丰富多彩,引人入胜。
So, I decided I was going to become a scuba diver at the age of 15. And the only problem with that was that I lived in a little village in Canada, 600 miles from the nearest ocean. But I didn't let that daunt me. I pestered my father until he finally found a scuba class in Buffalo, New York, right across the border from where we live. And I actually got certified in a pool in a YMCA in the dead of winter in Buffalo, New York. And I didn't see the ocean, a real ocean, for another two years, until we moved to California.所以在我15岁时,我决定成为一名潜水员。
唯一的问题是我住在加拿大的一个小山村,离最近的海有600英里远。
但是我并没有因为这个气馁。
我一直缠着父亲,直到他在边境对岸的美国纽约州的布法罗找到了一个潜水培训班。
在那里,隆冬季节,我在基督教青年会的一个游泳池里获得了证书。
在接下来的两年我还是没有看到大海,真正的大海,直到我们搬到了加利福尼亚州。
And since then, you know, in the intervening 40 years, I've spent about 3,000 hours underwater and 500 hours of that was in submersibles. And I've learned that deep ocean environment, and even the shallow oceans are so rich with amazing life that really is beyond our imagination. Nature's imagination is so boundless compared to our own meager human imagination. I still, to this day, stand in absolute awe of what I see when I make these dives. And my love affair with the ocean is ongoing, and just as strong as it ever was.从那以后,你知道,这以后的40年里,我在水下待了3000个小时,其中有500个小时呆在潜水艇里。
我了解到深海环境甚至是浅海环境都是那么丰富多彩,那里生活着许多超过我们想象的神奇生物。
比起我们的想象力,自然的想象力完全没有边界。
直到今天,当我潜水的时候我仍然对我看到的景象心存敬畏。
我对于大海的爱仍然继续着,就像曾经一样强烈。
But, when I chose a career, as an adult, it was film making. And that seemed to be the best way to reconcile this urge I had to tell stories, with my urges to create images. And I was, as a kid, constantly drawing comic books, and so on. So, film making was the way to put pictures and stories together. And that made sense. And of course the stories that I chose to tell were science fiction stories: Terminator, Aliens, and The Abyss. And with The Abyss, I was putting together my love of underwater and diving, with film making. So, you know, merging the two passions.但是长大后,我选择的职业是拍电影。
