Perfectly impartial
During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), a very noble
official caled Qi Huangyang lived in the State of Jin. One day, the king
summoned him to court and asked, "Now that the magistrate position of
Nanyang county is vacant, who do you think is suitable for the post?"
"Xie Hu is the right man for the job," Qi replied without
hesitation.
Surprised, the king asked, "Did you say Xie Hu? I thought hes your
enemy. Why did you recommend him to take such an important position?"
Smiling, Qi Huangyang said, "Your Majesty didnt ask me my personal
opinions o Xie Hu. You simply asked me who I thought would be competent
for the position. Therefore I recommended Xie Hu.
the king followed Qis advice and made Xie Hu magistrate of Nanyang
county. And sure enough, Xie Hu administered the county very well and
won
respect from local people and his colleagues.
Some days later, the king again asked Qi Huangyang for his
opinions.
This time, the king was trying to find a suitable candidate for a court
judge position. Qi Huangyiang recommended Qi Wu for the job. Once
again,
the king was surprised again by the recommendation because Qi
Wu was the
son of Qi Huangyang. The king asked: "Who do you recommend your son?
Arent
you afraid people will gossip?"
Qi Huangyang replied, "Your Majesty, you asked me who was the most
capable person for the position of a judge, and I think Qi Wu is."
Although the king was a bit hesitant about making Qi Wu the judge,
he nevertheless gave him the position. As it turned out, Qi Wu was an
upright and talented judge, who people GREatly respected.
Qi Huangyangs actions were praised by Confucius who said, "Qi
Huangyang was right. He recommended people according to their abilities
and talents, not because of personal sentiments, not because of
fearing
others gossip. Therefore, people like Qi Huangyang are referred to as
people "without selfish motives".
From Confucious comment came the idiom "Unselfish". Anyone who
handles affairs fairly and impartially can be described as "Unselfish;
Perfectly impartial".
大公无私
春秋时,晋国有位品格非常高尚的大臣祁黄羊。有一次,晋王召祁黄羊入宫问他:"南阳县缺个县令,你看,应该派谁去当比较合适呢?」祁黄羊毫不迟疑地回答说:"解狐去,最合适了。"平公惊奇的问他:"你是说解狐?
他不是你的仇人吗?你为什么还要推荐他担任这么重要的职位?"
祁黄羊笑着说:"陛下只问我什么人能够胜任这个职位,并没有问我对解狐的个人看法呀!因此我推荐解狐。"于是,晋王采纳了他的建议,派解狐到南阳县去上任了。当然,解狐到任后,治理有方,他的同僚和当地百姓都尊敬他。
过了一些日子,平公又向祁黄羊征求意见。这回,晋王想找个合适的人选担任朝廷法官。"祁黄羊推荐了祁午。平公又奇怪起来了,因为祁午是祁黄羊的儿子。他问道:"你怎么推荐你的儿子,不怕别人讲闲话吗?"祁黄羊说:"陛下只问我谁最是合适的,我认为祁午是。" 尽管晋王还有些犹豫,他还是派了祁午去做法官。事实证明,祁午是个正直,有才能的法官,很受人们的爱戴。孔子听说这两件事,十分称赞祁黄羊。孔子说:
"祁黄羊是对的。他推荐人,完全是以才能做标准,不因为个人偏见,便不推荐他;也不因为怕人议论,便不推荐。像黄祁羊这样的人,才够得上说"大公无私"啦!"
"大公无私"这个成语就是由孔子的评论而来的,用来形容那些公正无私处理事物的人。

Uphold justice at the cost of ones blood relation
During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476BC), there was many
dukedoms under the king of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. These dukedoms
often
fought one another to expand their territories. And within a dukedom,
the
struggle for power frequently occurred. A typical case was the murder
of
the Duke of Wei by his younger brother Zhou Xu.
Zhou Xu committed the crime with the help of an important official
called Shi Hou. Eventually, Zhou Xu became duke himself. Then he
launched
wars against other dukedoms and the people suffered. There were
complaints
and resentments all around.
When he learned about this, Zhou Xu was worried. He talked with Shi
Hou about how to stabilize the situation and win back peoples
confidence.
Shi Hou said:"Thats easy. Ill ask my father to speak for us. He is
highly
esteemed by all the officials and the people. Im sure hell help us out."
Shi Hous father, Shi Que, had been a high-ranking official serving
under the former duke. He resigned when Zhu Xu seized power. He hated
Zhou
Xu for his murder of the former duke. He also hated his own son, Shi
Hou,
for his part in the murder.
Now, Shi Hou came and asked him for help. the father said, "A duke
ascendance to power should be granted by the king. If the king approved
it, all the problems will be solved."
"But how can we bet the kings approval?" Shi Hou asked his father.
The old man said, "The Duke of Chen is trusted by the king and his
dukedom
has good relationship with ours. If you and Zhou Xu go to the Duke of
Chen
and ask him for help, Im sure he is willing to say a good word for you
before the king."
Shi Hou passed his fathers word to Zhu Xu and they went to the
Dukedom
of Chen. But before they arrived, the old man sent an express letter in
secret to the Duke of Chen asking him to kill the two murderers.
As soon as Zhou Xu and Shi Hou arrived in the Dukedom of Chen, they
were arrested. Some officials from Wei made a special trip to Chen to

乔丹的名人励志故事1
乔丹很喜欢打篮球。每个星期六,他跟着哥哥赖瑞和罗尼去公园,希望能跟他们一起打球。如果另一个常和他们一起打球的男孩没来,他们就会让乔丹上场。可是,有个叫马克的男孩总是找乔丹麻烦,而且马克在他们之中个子最高。“怎么啦,小乔丹,太矮了吧?”马克在乔丹面前挥舞着双臂。“这里!”赖瑞高喊。乔丹想把球传过去,马克却伸出长长的手臂把球拍掉了。球落到其他队友手中,那个孩子上篮得分,比赛就此结束。
“真的很对不起。如果我长得高一点,就不会这样了。”乔丹在回家的路上不停地道歉,虽然并没有人责怪他。哥哥罗尼安慰他:“小弟,你今天打得不错。没关系,下次我们会赢回来的。”
他们回到家,乔丹走进厨房,妈妈正在准备晚餐。他还是很沮丧,妈妈一看就知道怎么了。“你们今天输了,是吗?”乔丹点点头。他静静地坐了一会儿,开口问妈妈:“我怎样才能长高一点儿啊?”妈妈一般能回答很多问题,不过,今天这个问题有点儿难。她一边给晚餐要吃的烤鸡撒上盐和胡椒,一边思索。突然,她面露微笑,看着乔丹说:“盐。”
“盐?”乔丹望着妈妈。她说:“在鞋子里放盐。每天晚上在你的鞋子里撒一些盐,然后祷告。很快,你就会长高了!”
“鞋子里放盐?”乔丹反复想着这句话。妈妈一定在开玩笑。他望着窗外,想不通为什么盐能帮助他长高。他注意到妈妈在花园里种玫瑰花,那些五颜六色的花沿着篱笆长得高高的。他记得那些花刚种下去的样子。乔丹精神为之一振。既然妈妈知道怎么让玫瑰花长高,或许她说的是真的,在我的鞋子里撒些盐,真的能让我长高吧!
乔丹越想越兴奋,在厨房里转来转去,不停地问问题。“妈妈,长高需要多久?你想我会长到多高?”妈妈微笑着坐在旁边,向他解释:“要让这个办法有效,最重要的是你有耐心,照我的话去做,还要每天晚上诚心祷告。”乔丹专心听完,但还是有些疑惑地说:“好吧,妈妈,我会有耐心。可是这跟祷告有什么关系啊?”“绝对有关系。”妈妈拥抱着他说,“去洗脸洗手,叫哥哥姐姐来吃晚餐吧。”乔丹冲出厨房,差点撞上正走进来的爸爸。“他怎么了?”爸爸问。“哦,跟平常一样……”妈妈笑着说,“追逐梦想。”

1、焦耳求知——好学
英国著名科学家焦耳从小就很喜爱物理学,他常常自己动手做一些关于电、热之类的实验。
有一年放假,焦耳和哥哥一起到郊外旅游。聪明好学的焦耳就是在玩耍的时候,也没有忘记做他的物理实验。 他找了一匹瘸腿的马,由他哥哥牵着,自己悄悄躲在后面,用伏达电池将电流通到马身上,想试 一试动物在受到电流刺激后的反应。结果,他想看到的反应出现了,马收到电击后狂跳起来,差一点把哥哥踢伤。 尽管已经出现了危险,但这丝毫没有影响到爱做实验的小焦耳的情绪。他和咯咯又划着船来到群山环绕的湖上,焦耳想在这里试一试回声有多大。他们在火枪里塞满了火药,然后扣动扳机。谁知“砰”的一声,从枪口里喷出一条长长的火苗,烧光了焦耳的眉毛,还险些把哥哥吓得掉进湖里。 这时,天空浓云密布,电闪雷鸣,刚想上岸躲雨的焦耳发现,每次闪电过后好一会儿才能听见轰隆的雷声,这是怎么回事? 焦耳顾不得躲雨,拉着哥哥爬上一个山头,用怀表认真记录下去每次闪电到雷鸣之间相隔的时间。 开学后焦耳几乎是迫不及待地把自己做的实验都告诉了老师,并向老师请教。 老师望着勤学好问的焦耳笑了,耐心地为他讲解:“光和声的传播速度是不一样的,光速快而声速慢,所以人们总是想见闪电再听到雷声,而实际上闪电雷鸣是同时发生的。” 焦耳听了恍然大悟。
从此,他对学习科学知识更加入迷。通过不断地学习和认真地观察计算,他终于发现了热功当量和能量守恒定律,成为一名出色的科学家。
2、电报迷与看报迷——坚持
爱迪生是世界上有名的发明大王,他的发明有一千多项,像电灯、留声机、电影机等都是他发明的。 然而童年的爱迪生因为家中贫穷,只上过几年学,他十二岁便到火车上去卖报了。不能去学校读书,他就自学。他非常热爱学习,一边卖报一边看书看报,抓紧时间学习和做实验。 爱迪生的父亲平时对家里人要求很严格,他规定全家每天晚上十一点半前必须关灯睡觉。可是,爱迪生卖完报纸回到家常常是晚上十一点了,这样他回家后就没时间做自己喜欢的实验了,这可怎么班呢?这对于喜欢自己学习、摸索的爱迪生来说,简直是难以忍受。于是他想来想去,终于想出一个好办法,能让爸爸支持自己做实验。 一天,爱迪生用铜线在树上架起了电线,直接接到他的好朋友家里,并把当天卖剩下的报纸和一台电报机留在朋友家。晚上会到家后,他爸爸要看报纸,爱迪生说今天的报纸卖完了。起先他的爸爸并没有非常可惜。爱迪生为了引起爸爸的兴趣,就开始说起今天报纸的内容如何新鲜有趣,没有看真是非常可惜。爱迪生的爸爸听到他讲得如此绘生绘色,真的非常想看。于是他问爱迪生还能不能想办法找一份来。爱迪生说,他的朋友佳丽还有一份,他可以用电报把报纸的内容传过来。这个时候爱迪生的爸爸想看报纸的瘾上来了,于是就痛快地答应了他。
