内向也能成为演讲高手——TED英语演讲稿的内向性格力量

内向也能成为演讲高手——TED英语演讲稿的内向性格力量

内向也能成为演讲高手——TED英语演讲稿的内向性格力量Intro:In recent years, TED talks have gained immense popularity around the world. TED, which stands for Technology, Entertainment, and Design, is a nonprofit organization devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks. TED talks have become a global phenomenon, inspiring people all over the world to think, learn, and envision new possibilities. However, many people assume that only extroverted individuals can give successful TED talks. This is a common misconception that needs to be addressed. In reality, introverted individuals can also become great TED speakers and harness the power of their introverted traits to deliver impressive speeches. In this article, we will explore the strengths and advantages of introverted speakers in the world of TED talks.Body:1. Preparation:One of the most significant strengths of introverted speakers is their preparation skills. Introverts tend to bedetail-oriented and focused, which assists them in planning and structuring their ideas efficiently. A TED talk requires significant preparation, including researching, organizing, and rehearsing your speech. Introverts can excel at this because they are willing to put the necessary effort and time to refine their speech to perfection. They tend to bediligent and independent researchers who do not mind spending long hours, ensuring they have a thorough understanding of their topic.2. Inward focus:The introverted speaker's inward focus enables them to cater to their needs and preferences while delivering a TED talk. They can concentrate on their thoughts and feelings, allowing them to communicate genuinely and effectively with the audience. This ability to dig deep and draw on their personal experiences brings a level of authenticity and honesty to their talk, making it compelling and memorable to the audience.3. Active Listening:Great speakers are not just good at delivering their ideas; they also have to be exceptional listeners. Listening helps speakers connect with their audience, understand theirneeds, and tailor their message accordingly. Introverts,known for being good listeners, are generally more adept at empathizing with their listeners, which helps them understand and respond to their audience's questions and feedback. They are naturally inclined to take their time and listen actively, which is a great advantage when it comes to delivering TED talks.4. Critical Thinking:The introverted speaker's critical-thinking skills enable them to dissect complex information and analyze it in a meaningful way. This quality is especially vital when it comes to TED talks. The audience is looking for fresh perspectives on the topic, and the speaker has to deliver exceptional insights and ideas. Introverts are naturally curious and inclined to explore and examine different anglesof a topic. This ability helps them develop original,thought-provoking ideas, making them more compelling as TED speakers.5. Natural Pace:When it comes to delivering speeches, introvertedspeakers may speak at a more natural pace, which can be very effective. A slower pace allows the speaker to articulatetheir ideas more clearly, making it easier for the audienceto follow along. It also creates a feeling of authenticity and sincerity that resonates with the audience, making it more memorable.Conclusion:In conclusion, people tend to assume that introversion is a barrier to public speaking, but that is a fallacy. Introverts have a natural inclination for research, preparation, inward focus, active listening, critical thinking, and a natural pace that make them compelling TED speakers. The path to becoming a successful TED speaker depends on harnessing these natural advantages and using them to build a confident, articulate, and authentic persona on stage. With perseverance, determination, and a focus on these strengths, even the most introverted individual can become an impressive TED speaker that captivates audiences worldwide.。

英语演讲稿 TED英语演讲:如何掌控你的自由时间

TED英语演讲:如何掌控你的自由时间经常听有人抱怨自己很忙,没时间做这个做那个,情况真是这样的吗?演讲者Laura Vanderkam女士将给大家带来一场抛开现象看本质的演讲。

下面是小编为大家收集关于TED英语演讲:如何掌控你的自由时间,欢迎借鉴参考。

演讲者:Laura Vanderkam 劳拉·凡德卡姆中英对照翻译When people find out I write about time management, they assume two things. One is that I'm always on time, and I'm not. I have four small children, and I would like to blame them for my occasional tardiness, but sometimes it's just not their fault. I was once late to my own speech on time management.当人们发现我写关于时间管理的文章时,他们都会假设两件事:第一,我永远都准时,但我并不是。

我有四个小孩,我偶尔将迟到归咎于他们,不过有时候真的不是因为他们。

我有一次在去我的一个关于时间管理的演讲时迟到了。

We all had to just take a moment together and savor that irony.我们都需要一点时间去好好地体味一下这有多么讽刺。

The second thing they assume is that I have lots of tips and tricks for saving bits of time here and there.Sometimes I'll hear from magazines that are doing a story along these lines, generally on how to help their readers find an extra hour in the day. And the idea is that we'll shave bitsof time off everyday activities, add it up, and we'll have time for the good stuff.第二,人们总是假设我有很多关于如何节省时间的贴士和技巧。

TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨

TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨

TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨幸福的人为什么会出轨?人们说起不忠,真正是指什么?为什么人们会认为男人出轨都是出于厌倦和对紧密关系的恐惧,而女人出轨则是出于寂寞和对亲密关系的渴求呢?对于出轨人的建议是什么?下面是小编为大家收集关于TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨,欢迎借鉴参考。

幸福的人为什么会出轨Why do we cheat? And why do happy people cheat? And when we say "infidelity," what exactly do we mean? Is it a hookup, a love story, paid sex, a chat room, a massage with a happy ending? Why do we think that men cheat out of boredom and fear of intimacy, but women cheat out of loneliness and hunger for intimacy? And is an affair always the end of a relationship?我们为何出轨? 为何幸福之人也会出轨? 我们所谓的“不忠”到底指的是什么? 是一夜情?爱情故事? 有偿性服务?私聊? 还是特殊按摩服务? 为什么我们认为男人出轨是因为寻求刺激或是害怕亲密关系,而女人出轨是因为孤独或是渴求亲密关系? 婚外情是不是意味着婚姻已走到尽头?For the past 10 years, I have traveled the globe and worked extensively with hundreds of couples who have been shattered by infidelity. There is one simple act of transgression that can rob a couple of their relationship, their happiness and their very identity: an affair. And yet, this extremely common act is so poorly understood. So this talk is for anyone who has ever loved.在过去十年间,我走遍世界走访了数百对夫妻,他们都因出轨而心力交瘁。

坚定内向自我,释放潜能:TED英语演讲稿

坚定内向自我,释放潜能:TED英语演讲稿

坚定内向自我,释放潜能:TED英语演讲稿Hello everyone,Today, I would like to talk about a topic that is closeto my heart - how to become a more self-assured introvert and unlock your hidden potential. I believe this is a topic that many of us are interested in, given the increasing awarenessof the different personality traits and types that exist in society.So, what is being an introvert all about? In simple terms, it is the tendency to prefer solitary activities or smaller groups over larger gatherings, and the tendency to expel energy when interacting with others. This doesn't mean that introverts are shy or anti-social, but that they simply draw their energy from different sources.However, our society has long valued extroverted traits such as charisma, assertiveness, and outgoingness, which puts introverts at a disadvantage in many areas of life. For example, in the workplace, being a "team player" is oftenseen as a requirement for success. But what if you don'tthrive in a collaborative environment and prefer to workindependently? Or what if you have excellent ideas but struggle to speak up in meetings or presentations?This is where the TED talks come in. These talks, which feature a wide range of speakers and ideas, have become synonymous with thought-provoking insights, actionable tips, and inspiring stories. And many of the talks are specifically geared towards introverts - helping them to recognize their value and empowering them to be their best selves.One of my favorite TED talks on this subject is given by Susan Cain, author of the book "Quiet: The Power ofIntroverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking". In her talk, she explains how our society has been biased towards extroversion and how this has led to a culture of groupthink and conformity. She challenges the stereotype that extroverts are the only ones who can be high-achievers and argues that introverts can bring unique strengths to the table, including creativity, thoughtfulness, and a deep appreciation for meaningful relationships.Cain's talk is a powerful reminder that introverts can be successful and fulfilled, even in social and team-driven environments. It encourages introverts to embrace theirstrengths, like being great listeners and strategic thinkers, while acknowledging their limitations, like the need for quiet and limited stimulation.Another TED talk that I love is by Brian Little, who argues that there are three different personality types: the biogenic, which are controlled by biology, the sociogenic, which are shaped by social forces, and the idiogenic, which are defined by personal values and principles. He shows how this insight can help us understand ourselves better, and how we can use this understanding to tailor our actions to our unique personalities.In conclusion, the TED talks have been a valuable source of inspiration and guidance to introverts all around the world. They remind us that we are not alone, that each of us has a unique blend of strengths and weaknesses, and that we can learn to work with and not against our inherent personality traits. By embracing our authentic selves, we can tap into our full potential and make positive contributions to the world around us. Thank you.。

ted演讲稿高中生精选范文TED(指technology, entertainment, design在英语中的缩写,即技术、娱乐、设计)是美国的一家私有非营利机构,该机构以它组织的TED大会著称,这个会议的宗旨是“值得传播的创意”.一起来看看ted演讲稿高中生精选范文,欢迎查阅!ted演讲稿1I grew up diagnosed as phobically shy,我从小就有社交恐惧症and like at least 20 other people in a room of this size,这样的空间大约20人I was a stutterer.就能让以前的我结巴语塞Do you dare raise your hand?更别提举手了根本不可能And it sticks with us.这种困扰如影随形It really does stick with us,你走到哪它就跟到哪because when we are treated that way,当大家对你的存在视若无睹we feel invisible sometimes,你会开始感觉自己是隐形人or talked around and at.而别人都在你背后窃窃私语And as I started to look at people,后来我仔细去观察周遭的人which is mostly all I did,一直以来我都只敢默默观察I noticed that some people really wanted attention然后发现有些人无法忍受被忽视and recognition.他们要得到大家的注意力和认同Remember, I was young then.当时我年轻、懵懂So what did they do? What we still do perhaps too often?渴望注意力的人会做什么? 也许现在太多人在做一样的事而不自知We talk about ourselves.他们谈论的常常都是自己And yet there are other people I observed who had what I called a mutuality mindset.但另一批人就不同了我说他们的人际关系往往有一种“互相”的心态In each situation, they found a way to talk about us and create that “us” idea.无论什么场合他们的谈话里都会出现“我们”这个概念So my idea to reimagine the world is to see it one where we all become greater opportunity-makers with and for others.在我心目中的理想世界每个人都能为自己和别人创造机会There’s no greater opportunity or call for action for us now 就是现在我们必须把握良机、采取行动than to become opportunity-makers who use best talents together more often for the greater good多去整合各种才能尽可能的利益他人and accomplish things we couldn’t have done on our own.一人做不到的多人或许有办法And I want to talk to you about that,这就是我今天的重点cause even more than giving,比单纯给予even more than giving,施舍、捐赠更有影响力的is the capacity for us to do something smarter together就是人们学会集思广益for the greater good that lifts us both up共同合作创造双赢局面and that can scale.其中的利益会一层层积累That’s why I’m sitting here.这是我今天演讲的重点But I also want to point something else out.不过我还想说一件事Each one of you is better than anybody else at something.台下的你必定在某些事上比其他人都拿手That disproves that popular notion that if you’re the smartest person in the room,和那句名言“你绝不是这里最厉害的人”you’re in the wrong room.恰恰相反So let me tell you about a Hollywood party I went to a couple years back,我在几年前的一个好莱坞聚会上and I met this up-and-coming actress,遇见了位有潜力的女演员and we were soon talking about something that we both felt passionately about,我们很快就找到共同话题-public art.公共艺术And she had the fervent belief that every new building in LosAngeles她坚信洛杉矶的每栋建筑里should have public art in it. She wanted a regulation for it, 都应该有公共艺术她想要一套专属公共艺术的规范and she fervently started,所以她兴忡忡的着手进行What is here from Chicago?这里有谁是芝加哥人吗?She fervently started talking about these bean-shaped reflective sculptures in Millennium Park,她滔滔不绝的说着千禧公园里的云门雕塑and people would walk up to it人们好奇的上前一探究竟and they’d smile in the reflection of it,看着自己的映像微笑and they’d pose and they’d vamp and they’d take selfies together摆pose、赞叹、自拍留念and they’d laugh.然后笑成一团And as she was talking, a thought came to my mind.听着听着我突然灵光乍现I said, “I know someone you ought to meet.我告诉她: “妳应该见见这个人He’s getting out of San Quentin in a couple of weeks再几周他就要从圣昆丁州立监狱出来了and he shares your fervent desire that art should engage and enable people to connect.”他跟妳一样觉得艺术应该让人有共鸣、激发想像力”He spent five years in solitary,他被单独监禁了五年and I met him because I gave a speech at San Quentin,我因为在圣昆丁演讲而与他结识and he’s articulate他口条不错and he’s rather easy on the eyes长的也不赖because he’s buff. He had workout regime he did everyday.因为他是条热爱健身的汉子I think she was following me at that point.女演员大概还满有兴趣的I said, “he’d be an une_pected ally.”我又说: “他会是个得力助手”And not just that. There’s James. He’s an architect除了他之外我把詹姆也拉进来詹姆是建筑师and he’s a professor,也是个教授and he loves place-making, and place-making is when you have those mini-plazas他对地方营造很有兴趣外头的小广场、and those urban walkways城市人行道and where they’re dotted with art,任何有艺术点缀的地方都属于地方营造的范畴where people draw and come up and talk sometimes.许多人会在那儿画画、闲聊I think they’d make good allies.我想他们一定能合作无间And indeed they were.果真没错They met together. They prepared.他们碰面之后就开始筹备They spoke in front of the Lost Angeles City Council.到洛杉矶市政府传达诉求And the council members not only passed the regulation,结果市议员通过了他们订的条例half of them came down and asked to pose with them afterwards.之后甚至半数议员还去与艺术品合影They were startling, compelling and credible.他们给人的印象是震慑、具说服力、可靠You can’t buy that.全都是用钱买不到的What I’m asking you to consider is what kind of opportunity-makers we might become,希望各位想想自己能成为哪种机会制造者because more than wealth比财富、or fancy titles头衔、or a lot of contacts,人脉更可观的it’s our capacity to connect around each other’s better side and bring it out.是我们发掘他人优点的能力And I’m not saying this is easy,这一点都不容易and I’m sure many of you have made the wrong moves too about who you wanted to connect with,相信许多人都有找错对象、牵错线的经验but what I want to suggest is, this is an opportunity.但毕竟都是个“机会”I started thinking about it way back when I was a Wall Street Journal reporter and I was in Europe这个领悟要从好几年前说起当时我在欧洲担任华尔街日报记者and I was supposed to cover trends and trends that transcended business or politics or lifestyle.采访内容为时尚与流行跨越商业、政治、生活型态隔阂的流行So I had to have contacts in different worlds very different than mine,因此得和背景截然不同的人打交道because otherwise you couldn’t spot the trends.否则就无法掌握潮流走向And third, I had to write a story in a way stepping into the reader’s shoes,写故事时还得设身处地为读者想they could see how these trends could affect their lives.要让他们觉得自己和这些潮流息息相关That’s what opportunity-makers do.这就是机会制造者的任务And here’s a strange thing:奇怪之处在于Unlike an increasing number of Americans who are working and living and playing with people who think e_actly like them 越来越多人工作、生活、娱乐都喜欢寻找与自己相似的人because we then become more rigid and e_treme,久而久之就变得挑剔、极端起来opportunity-makers are actively seeking situations with people unlike them,机会制造者寻找与自己不相似的人and they’re building relationships,和他们建立关系and because they do that,这样做的话they have trusted relationships where they can bring the right team in两方之间就有互信能在适当的时机介绍彼此适当的人and recruit them to solve a problem better and faster and seize more opportunities.用更快、更好的方法解决问题同时也抓住了更多机会They’re not affronted by differences.机会创造者不会被歧异冒犯They’re fascinated by them,反而深受吸引and that is a huge shift in mindset,这是心态上的极端不同and once you feel it, you want it to happen a lot more.你一旦意识到就会为它的魅力着迷This world is calling out for us to have a collective mindset, 和别人形成“共同体”才是王道and I believe in doing that.我个人深信It’s especially important now.携手合作在这世代特别重要Why is it important now?为什么呢?Because things can be devised like drones机器小帮手and drugs and data collection,药物开发、数据收集and they can be devised by more people.都可以让更多人参与其中and cheaper ways for beneficial purposes用更经济的方式创造收益and then, as we know from the news every day, they can be used for dangerous ones.只是水能载舟亦能复舟也可能被有心人士利用It calls on us, each of us, to a higher calling.这个理念非常需要大家的重视But here’s the icing on the cake:成为机会制造者是一箭双雕It’s not just the first opportunity that you do with somebody else that’s probably your greatest,除了获得和更高竿对象合作的机会as an institution or an individual.无论对于机构或个人来说It’s after you’ve had that e_perience and you trust each other.都是开启了这扇门建立信任后It’s the une_pected things that you devise later on you never could have predicted.团队合作带来的惊人成果For e_ample, Marty is the husband of that actress I mentioned,麦迪是那位女演员的丈夫and he watched them when they were practicing,詹姆等三人排练时他就在旁边看and he was soon talking to Wally, my friend the e_-con,并很快和韦利聊开了就是刚出狱的那位about that e_ercise regime.大概在聊健身吧?And he thought, I have a set of racquetball courts.麦迪心想: “我有个壁球馆That guy could teach it. A lot of people who work there are members at my courts.韦利可以来当教练很多教练都是体育馆的会员They’re frequent travelers.他们很常来我这边They could practice in their hotel room, no equipment provided.旅馆房间里没有设备也照样能练习”That’s how Wally got hired.韦利就这样得到了板球教练的工作Not only that, years later he was also teaching racquetball.几年后他也开始教壁球学生Years after that, he was teaching the racquetball teachers.再过了几年则是教壁球老师What I’m suggesting is, when you connect with people我想说的是当你把周遭有相同兴趣、around a shared interest and action,喜好的人圈在一块you’re a ccustomed to serendipitous things happening into the future,就会逐渐适应随之而来、意想不到的收获and I think that’s what we’re looking at.我想这才是至关重要We open ourselves up to those opportunities,面对机会我们敞开心胸and in this room are key players and technology,关键推手-这里的你们再加上科技key players who are uniquely positioned to do this,每个人各司其职有自己的位置to scale systems and projects together.提升制度和计划的整体价值So here’s what I’m calling for you to do. Remember the three traits of opportunity-makers.我想拜讬大家的就是记得机会制造者的三项特质Opportunity-makers keep honing their top strength一、机会制造者不断磨练自己专长and they become pattern seekers.开拓事物运作的新方式They get involved in different worlds than their worlds二、他们乐于接触不同人的世界so they’re trusted and they can see those patterns,获取信任学习各种合作方式and they communicate to connect around sweet spots of shared interest.三、他们周旋于各方之间让参与的人都分一杯羹So what I’m asking you is, the world is hungry.我想说的是人与人之间太缺乏连结I truly believe, in my firsthand e_perience,根据亲身经验我相信the world is hungry for us to unite together as opportunity-makers这世界很需要机会制造者and to emulate those behaviors as so many of you already do, I know that firsthand,可能台下的你已经是其中之一大家都应该效仿机会制造者and to reimagine a world where we use our best talents together重塑我们的世界融合各领域人才more often to accomplish greater thing together than we could on our own.一人不能做的事借由合作来完成Just remember,请把这句话放在心上as Dave Liniger once said,大卫˙林杰说过“You can’t succeed coming to the potluck with only a fork.”“只带一只叉子就来百乐餐的人永远无法成功”(注: 后衍伸为商业成长需要集体合作、贡献)Thank you very much.谢谢大家Thank you.谢谢。

如何利用内向性格的力量:TED英语演讲稿

如何利用内向性格的力量:TED英语演讲稿How to Harness the Power of Introverted Personality: TED SpeechGood evening, ladies and gentlemen. Today, I am honored to speak to you about the power of introverted personality and how you can harness it to achieve your goals.As an introvert myself, I understand firsthand the misconceptions and stigmas attached to introversion. For a long time, introverted individuals have been seen as shy, quiet, and anti-social. However, that stereotype couldn't be further from the truth. In reality, introverted individuals possess valuable skills and characteristics that can be used to succeed in various aspects of life.Firstly, introverts excel in focused work. They are more comfortable in quiet environments where they can think deeply and concentrate on tasks. This makes them highly efficient and productive in tasks that require concentration and good attention to detail. In a world that is increasingly dominated by distractions, introverts' ability to shut out noise and focus on the task at hand is a highly sought-afterskill that can be utilized in many fields, be it in academics, research, or creative work.Moreover, introverts are great listeners. They are less likely to interrupt or talk over others, which makes them effective in nurturing relationships and building rapport. Their empathetic nature and attention to detail enable themto pick up subtle cues in conversations that others may miss. This quality makes them great listeners, mentors, and coaches.Introverts are also great thinkers. They tend to process information deeply and reflect on situations before reacting. This gives them a unique perspective that can lead to innovative solutions and ideas. In fact, some of the greatest minds in history, such as Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton, were introverted individuals who were able to achieve their breakthroughs through careful contemplation and observation.However, introverts often struggle with networking and asserting themselves in social situations. This can limittheir opportunities for growth and success in areas where social skills are highly valued, such as business and leadership. Therefore, introverts need to find ways toleverage their strengths while developing basic social skills.One strategy is to engage in teamwork. Althoughintroverted individuals prefer working alone, participatingin group work can be beneficial as it allows them to learnfrom others and get exposure to diverse perspectives and ideas. Teamwork also allows introverts to practice communicating their ideas effectively and building relationships.Another strategy is to take advantage of digital media platforms such as social media, email, and video conferencing. These tools allow introverted individuals to communicate from the comfort of their own space, without the pressure of face-to-face interaction. By leveraging digital media, introverts can build relationships, expand their network, and sharetheir ideas with a wider audience.In conclusion, introverted individuals have numerous strengths that can be harnessed for success. By embracingtheir introverted nature and capitalizing on their analytical, intuitive, and reflective qualities, introverts can achieve their goals and make meaningful contributions to their fields. By honing their basic social skills and leveraging digital media platforms, they can also overcome their limitations andexpand their reach. Remember, introversion is not a weakness but a strength that needs to be nurtured and utilized effectively. Thank you.。

TED英语演讲稿优秀范文五篇在(英语学习)的过程,大家想要尽可能的提高英语水平的话,进行英语演讲不仅是对自己的一种气场胆量的锻炼,同时也是对自己英语水平提高的好办法,下面是给大家整理的TED(英语(演讲稿))优秀(范文)五篇,欢迎大家借鉴与参考,希望对大家有所帮助。

↓▼↓更多“英英语演讲稿1The problem with these stories is that they show what the data shows: women systematically underestimate their own abilities. If you test men and women, and you ask them questions on totally objective criteria like GPAs, men get it wrong slightly high, and women get it wrong slightly low. Women do not negotiate for themselves in the workforce. A study in the last two years of people entering the workforce out of college showed that 57 percent of boys entering, or men, I guess, are negotiating their first salary, and only seven percent of women. And most importantly, men attribute their success to themselves, and women attribute it to other external factors. If you ask men why they did a good job,theyll say, Im awesome. Obviously. Why are you even asking? If you ask women why they did a good job, what theyll say is someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard.英语演讲稿2Why does this matter? Boy, it matters a lot. Because no one gets to the corner office by sitting on the side, not at the table, and no one gets the promotion if they dont think they deserve their success, or they dont even understand their own success.I wish the answer were easy. I wish I could go tell all the young women I work for, these fabulous women,Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success. I wish I could tell that to my daughter. But its not that simple. Because what the data shows, above all else, is one thing, which is that success and likeability are positively correlated for men and negatively correlated for women. And everyones nodding, because we all know this to be true.Theres a really good study that shows this really well. Theres a famous Harvard Business School studyon a woman named Heidi Roizen. And shes an operator in a company in Silicon Valley, and she uses her contacts to become a very successful venture capitalist.英语演讲稿3In 20_ — not so long ago — a professor who was then at Columbia University took that case and made it [Howard] Roizen. And he gave the case out, both of them, to two groups of students. He changed exactly one word: Heidi to Howard. But that one word made a really big difference. He then surveyed the students, and the good news was the students, both men and women, thought Heidi and Howard were equally competent, and thats good.The bad news was that everyone likedHoward. Hes a great guy. You want to work for him. You want to spend the day fishing with him. But Heidi? Not so sure. Shes a little out for herself. Shes a little political.Youre not sure youd want to work for her. This is the complication. We have to tell our daughters and our colleagues, we have to tell ourselves to believe we got the A, to reach for the promotion, to sit at the table, and we have to do it in a world where, for them, there are sacrifices they will make for that, even though for their brothers, there are not. The saddest thing about all of this is that its really hard to remember this. And Im about to tell a story which is truly embarrassing for me, but I think important.英语演讲稿4I gave this talk at Facebook not so long ago to about 100 employees, and a couple hours later, there was a young woman who works there sitting outside my little desk, and she wanted to talk to me. I said, okay, and she sat down, and we talked. And she said, I learned something today. I learned that I need to keep my hand up. What do you mean?She said, Youre giving this talk, and you said you would take two more questions. I had my hand up with many other people, and you took two more questions. I put my hand down, and I noticed all the women did the same, and then you took more questions, only from the men. And I thought to myself,Wow, if its me — who cares about this, obviously — giving this talk — and during this talk.英语演讲稿5I cant even notice that the mens hands are still raised, and the womens hands are still raised, how good are we as managers of our companies and our organizations at seeing that the men are reaching for opportunitiesmore than women? Weve got to get women to sit at the table.Message number two: Make your partner a real partner. Ive become convinced that weve made more progress in the workforce than we have in the home. The data shows this very clearly. If a woman and a man work full-time and have a child, the woman does twice the amount of housework the man does, and the woman does three times the amount of childcare the man does. So shes got three jobs or two jobs, and hes got one. Who do you think drops out when someone needs to be home more? The causes of this are really complicated, and I dont have time to go into them. And I dont think Sunday football-watching and general laziness is the cause.。

ted演讲稿范文4篇_演讲稿

ted演讲稿范文4篇_演讲稿ted演讲稿范文4篇i was one of the only kids in college who had a reason to go to the p.o. box at the end of the day, and that was mainly because my mother has never believed in email, in facebook, in texting or cell phones in general. and so while other kids were bbm-ing their parents, i was literally waiting by the mailbox to get a letter from home to see how the weekend had gone, which was a little frustrating when grandma was in the hospital, but i was just looking for some sort of scribble, some unkempt cursive from my mother.and so when i moved to new york city after college and got completely sucker-punched in the face by depression, i did the only thing i could think of at the time. i wrote those same kinds of letters that my mother had written me for strangers, and tucked them all throughout the city, dozens and dozens of them.i left them everywhere, in cafes and in libraries, at the u.n., everywhere. i blogged about those letters and the days when they were necessary, and i posed a kind of crazy promise to the internet: that if you asked me for a hand-written letter, i would write you one, no questions asked. overnight, my inbox 1 / 42 morphed into this harbor of heartbreak -- a single mother in sacramento, a girl being bullied in rural kansas, all asking me, a 22-year-old girl who barely even knew her own coffee order, to write them a love letter and give them a reason to wait by the mailbox.well, today i fuel a global organization that is fueled by those trips to the mailbox, fueled by the ways in which we can harness social media like never before to write and mail strangers letterswhen they need them most, but most of all, fueled by crates of mail like this one, my trusty mail crate, filled with the scriptings of ordinary people, strangers writing letters to other strangers not because they're ever going to meet and laugh over a cup of coffee, but because they have found one another by way of letter-writing.but, you know, the thing that always gets me about these letters is that most of them have been written by people that have never known themselves loved on a piece of paper. they could not tell you about the ink of their own love letters. they're the ones from my generation, the ones of us that have grown up into a world where everything is paperless, and where some of our best conversations have happened upon a screen. we 2 / 42 have learned to diary our pain onto facebook, and we speak swiftly in 140 characters or less.but what if it's not about efficiency this time? i was on the subway yesterday with this mail crate, which is a conversation starter, let me tell you. if you ever need one, just carry one of these. (laughter) and a man just stared at me, and he was like, "well, why don't you use the internet?" and i thought, "well, sir, i am not a strategist, nor am i specialist. i am merely a storyteller." and so i could tell you about a woman whose husband has just come home from afghanistan, and she is having a hard time unearthing this thing called conversation, and so she tucks love letters throughout the house as a way to say, "come back to me. find me when you can." or a girl who decides that she is going to leave love letters around her campus in dubuque, iowa, only to find her efforts ripple-effected the next day when she walks out onto the quad and finds love letters hanging from the trees, tucked in the bushes and the benches. or the man who decidesthat he is going to take his life, uses facebook as a way to say goodbye to friends and family. well, tonight he sleeps safely witha stack of letters just like this one tucked beneath his pillow, 3 /42scripted by strangers who were there for him when.these are the kinds of stories that convinced me that letter-writing will never again need to flip back her hair and talk about efficiency, because she is an art form now, all the parts of her, the signing, the scripting, the mailing, the doodles in the margins. the mere fact that somebody would even just sit down, pull out a piece of paper and think about someone the whole way through, with an intention that is so much harder to unearth when the browser is up and the iphone is pinging and we've got six conversations rolling in at once, that is an art form that does not fall down to the goliath of "get faster," no matter how many social networks we might join. we still clutch close these letters to our chest, to the words that speak louder than loud, when we turn pages into palettes to say the things that we have needed to say, the words that we have needed to write, to sisters and brothers and even to strangers, for far too long. thank you.

李世默ted英文演讲稿

李世默ted英文演讲稿篇一:李世默TED演讲稿(中英文)李世默TED:中国崛起与“元叙事”的终结Good morning. My name is Eric Li, and I was born here. But no, I wasn’t born there. This was where I was born: Shanghai, at the height of the Cultural Revolution. My grandmother tells me that she heard the sound of gunfire along with my first cries. When I was growing up, I was told a story that explained all I ever needed to know that humanity. It went like this. All human societies develop in linear progression, beginning with primitive society, then slave society, feudalism, capitalism, socialism, and finally, guess where we end up Communism! Sooner or later, all of humanity, regardless of culture, language, nationality, will arrive at this final stage of political and social development. The entire world’s peoples will be unified in this paradise on earth and live happily ever after. But before we get there, we’re engaged in a struggle between good and evil, the good of socialism against the evil of capitalism, and the good shall triumph. That,of course, was the meta-narrative distilled from the theories of Karl Marx. And the Chinese bought it. We were taught that grand story day in and day out. It became part of us, and we believed in it. The story was a bestseller. About on third of the entire world’s population lived under that meta narrative. Then, the world changed overnight. As for me, disillusioned by the failed religion of my youth, I went to America and became a Berkeley hippie. Now, as I was coming of age, something else happened. As if one big story wasn’t enough, I was told another one. This one was just as grand. It also claims that all human societies develop in a linear progression towards a singular end. This one went as follows. All societies, regardless of culture, be it Christian, Muslim, Confucian, must progress from traditional societies in which groups are the basic units to modern societies in which atomized individuals are the sovereign units, and all these individuals are, by definition, rational, and they all want one thing: the vote. Because they all rational, once given the vote, they produce good government and live happily ever after. Paradise on earth, again.Sooner or later, electoral democracy will be the only political system for all countriesand all peoples, with a free market to make them all rich. But before we get there, we’re engaged in a struggle between good and evil. The good belongs to those who are democracies and are charged with a mission of spreading it around the globe, sometimes by force, against the evil of those who do not hold elections. Now. This story also became a bestseller. According to the Freedom House, the number of democracies went from 45 in 1970 to 115 in XX. In the last 20years, Western elites tirelessly trotted around the globe selling this prospectus: multiple parties fight for political power and everyone voting on them is the only path to salvation to the long-suffering developing world. Those who buy the prospectus are destined for success. Those who do not are doomed to fail. But this time, the Chinese didn’t buy it. Fool me once… The rest is history. In just 3p years, China went from one of the poorest agricultural countries in the world to its second-largest economy. Six hundred fifty million people were lifted out of poverty. Eighty percent ofthe entire world’s poverty alleviation during that period happened in China. In other words, all the new and old democracies put together amounted to a mere fraction of what a single, one-party state did without voting. See, I grew up on this stuff: food stamps. Meat was rationed to a few hundred grams per person per month at one point. Needless to say, I ate my grandmother’s portions. So I asked myself, what’s wrong with this picture Here I am in my hometown, my business growing leaps and bounds. Entrepreneurs are starting companies every day. Middle class is expanding in speed and scale unprecedented in human history. Yet, according to the grand story, none of this should be happening. So I went and did the only thing I could. I studied it. Yes, China is a one-party state run by the Chinese Communist Party, the Party, and they don’t hold elections. There assumptions are made by the dominant political theories of our time. Such a system is operationally rigid, politically closed, and morally illegitimate. Well, the assumptions are wrong. The opposites are true. Adaptability, meritocracy, and legitimacy are the three defining characteristics of China’s one-partysystem. Now, most political scientists will tell us that a one-party system is inherently incapable of self-correction. It won’t last long because it cannot adapt. Now here are the facts. In 64 years of running the largest country in the world, the range of the party’s policieshas been wider than any other country in recent memory, from radical land collectivization to the Great Leap Forward, then privatization of farmland, then the Cultural Revolution, then Deng Xiaoping’s market reform, then successor Jiang Zemin took the giant political step of opening up party membership to private businesspeople, something unimaginable during Mao’s rule. So the party self-corrects in rather dramatic fashions. Institutionally, new rules get enacted to correct previous dysfunctions. For example, term limits. Political leaders used to retain their positions for life, and they used that to accumulate power and perpetuate their rules. Mao was the father of modern China, yet his prolonged rule led to disastrous mistakes. So the party instituted term limits with mandatory retirement age of 68 to 70. Onething we often hear is political reforms have lagged far behind economic reforms and China is in dire need of political reform. But this claim is a rhetorical trap hidden behind a political bias. See, some have decided a priori what kinds of changes they want to see, and only such changes can be called political reform. The truth is, political reforms have never stopped. Compared with 30 years ago, 20 years, even 10 years ago, every aspect of Chinese society, how the country is governed, from the most local level to the highest center, are uecognizable today. Now such changes are simply not possible without political reforms of the most fundamental kind. Now I would venture to suggest the Party is the world’s leading expert in political reform. The second assumption is that in a one-party state, power gets concentrated in the hands of the few, and bad governance and corruption follow. Indeed, corruption is a big problem, but let’s first look at the larger context. Now, this maybe be counterintuitive to you. The party happens to be one of the most meritocratic political institutions in the world today. China’s highest ruling body, the Politburo, has 25members. In the most recent one, only five of them came from a background of privilege, so-called Princelings. The other 20, including the President and the Premier, came from entirely ordinary backgrounds. In the larger central committee of 300 or more, the percentage of those who were born into power and wealth was even smaller. The vast majority of senior Chinese leaders worked and competed their way to the top. Compare that with the ruling elites in both developed and developing countries, I think you’ll find the Partybeing near the top in upward mobility. The question then is, how could that be possible in a system run by one party New we come to a powerful political institution, little-known to Westerners: the Party’s Organization Department. The Department functions like a giant human resource engine that would be the envy of even some of the most successful corporations. It operates a rotation pyramid made up of there components: civil service, state-owned enterprises, and social organizations like a university or a community program. The form separate yet integrated career paths for Chinese officials. They recruitcollege grads into entry-level positions in all three tracks, and they start from the bottom, called Keyuan Then they could get promoted through four increasingly elite ranks: fuke, ke, fuchu, and chu. Now these are not moves from karate kids, okay It’s serious business. The range of positions is wide, from running health care in a village to foreign investment in a city district to manager in a company. Once a year, the department reviews their performance. They interview their superiors, their peers, their subordinates. They vet their personal conduct. They conduct public opinion surveys. Then they promote the winners. Throughout their careers, these cadres can move through and out of all three tracks. Over time, the food ones move beyond the four base levels to the fuju and ju, levels. There, they enter high, officialdom. By that point, a typical assignment will be to manage a district with population in the millions or a company with hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue. Just to show you how competitive the system is, in XX, there were 900000 fuke and ke levels, 600000 fuchu and chu levels, and only 40000 fuju and ju levels. After the ju levels, the bestfew move further up several more ranks, and eventually make it to the Central Committee. The process takes two to three decades. Does patronage play a role Yes of course. But merit remains the fundamental driver. In essence, the Organization Department runs a modernizes version of China’s centuries-old mandarin system. China’s new President Xi Jinping is son of a former leader, which is very unusual, first of his kind to make the top job. Even for him, the career took 30 years. He started as a village manager, and by the time he entered the Politburo, he had managed areas with total population of 150 million people and combined GDPs of trillion dollars. Now, please don’t getme wrong, okay This is not a putdown of anyone. It’s just a statement of fact. George W. Bush, remember him This is not a putdown. Before becoming Governor of Texas, or Barack Obama before running for President, could not make even a small county manager in China’s system. Winston Churchill once said that democracy is a terrible system except for all the rest. Well, apparently he hadn’t heard of the Organization Department. Now, Westerners always assume thatmulti-party election with universal suffrage is the only source of political legitimacy. I was asked once, “The Party wasn’t voted in by election. Where is the source of Legitimacy” I said, “How about competency”: We all know the facts. In 1949, when the Party took power, China was mired in civil wars, dismembered by foreign aggression, average life expectancy at that time, 42 years old. Today, it’s the second largest economy in the world, an industrial powerhouse, and its people live in increasing prosperity. Pew Research polls Chinese public attitudes, and here are the numbers in recent years. Satisfaction with the direction of the country: 85 percent. Those who think they’re better off than five years ago, 70%. Those who expects the future to be better, a whopping 82 percent. Financial Times polls global youth attitudes and these numbers, brand new, just came from last week. Ninety-three-percent of China’s GenerationY are optimistic about their country’s future. Now, if this is not legitimacy, I’m not sure what is. In contrast, most electoral democracies around the world are suffering from dismal performance. I don’t need toelaborate for this audience how dysfunctional it is from Washington to European capitals. With a few exceptions, the vast number of developing countries that have adopted electoral regimes are still suffering from poverty and civil strife. Governments get elected, and then they fall below 50 percent approval in a few months and stay there and get worse until the next election. Democracy is becoming a perpetual cycle of elect and regret. At this rate, I’m afraid it is democracy, not China’s one-party system, that is in danger of losing legitimacy. Now, I don’t want to create the misimpression that China’s hunky-dory on the way to some kind of superpowerdom. The country faces enormous challenges. Social and economic problems that come with wrenching change like this are mine-boggling. Pollution is one. Food safety. Population issues. On the political front, the worst problem is篇二:李世默TED演讲稿(中英文)李世默TED:中国崛起与“元叙事”的终结Good morning. My name is Eric Li, and I was born here. But no, I wasn’t born there. This was where Iwas born: Shanghai, at the height of the Cultural Revolution. My grandmother tells me that she heard the sound of gunfire along with my first cries. When I was growing up, I was told a story that explained all I ever needed to know that humanity. It went like this. All human societies develop in linear progression, beginning with primitive society, then slave society, feudalism, capitalism, socialism, and finally, guess where we end up Communism! Sooner or later, all of humanity, regardless of culture, language, nationality, will arrive at this final stage of political and social development. The entire world’s peoples will be unified in this paradise on earth and live happily ever after. But before we get there, we’re engaged in a struggle between good and evil, the good of socialism against the evil of capitalism, and the good shall triumph. That, of course, was the meta-narrative distilled from the theories of Karl Marx. And the Chinese bought it. We were taught that grand story day in and day out. It became part of us, and we believed in it. The story was a bestseller. About on third of the entire world’s population lived under that meta narrative. Then, theworld changed overnight. As for me, disillusioned by the failed religion of my youth, I went to America and became a Berkeley hippie. Now, as I was coming of age, something else happened. As if one big story wasn’t enough, I was told another one. This one was just as grand. It also claims that all human societies develop in a linear progression towards a singular end. This one went as follows. All societies, regardless of culture, be it Christian, Muslim, Confucian, must progress from traditional societies in which groups are the basic units to modern societies in which atomized individuals are the sovereign units, and all these individuals are, by definition, rational, and they all want one thing: the vote. Because they all rational, once given the vote, they produce good government and live happily ever after. Paradise on earth, again. Sooner or later, electoral democracy will be the only political system for all countriesand all peoples, with a free market to make them all rich. But before we get there, we’re engaged in a struggle between good and evil. The good belongs to those who are democracies and are charged with a missionof spreading it around the globe, sometimes by force, against the evil of those who do not hold elections. Now. This story also became a bestseller. According to the Freedom House, the number of democracies went from 45 in 1970 to 115 in XX. In the last 20years, Western elites tirelessly trotted around the globe selling this prospectus: multiple parties fight for political power and everyone voting on them is the only path to salvation to the long-suffering developing world. Those who buy the prospectus are destined for success. Those who do not are doomed to fail. But this time, the Chinese didn’t buy it. Fool me once… The rest is history. In just 3p years, China went from one of the poorest agricultural countries in the world to its second-largest economy. Six hundred fifty million people were lifted out of poverty. Eighty percent of the entire world’s poverty alleviation during that period happened in China. In other words, all the new and old democracies put together amounted to a mere fraction of what a single, one-party state did without voting. See, I grew up on this stuff: food stamps. Meat was rationed to a few hundred grams per person per monthat one point. Needless to say, I ate my grandmother’s portions. So I asked myself, what’s wrong with this picture Here I am in my hometown, my business growing leaps and bounds. Entrepreneurs are starting companies every day. Middle class is expanding in speed and scale unprecedented in human history. Yet, according to the grand story, none of this should be happening. So I went and did the only thing I could. I studied it. Yes, China is a one-party state run by the Chinese Communist Party, the Party, and they don’t hold elections. There assumptions are made by the dominant political theories of our time. Such a system is operationally rigid, politically closed, and morally illegitimate. Well, the assumptions are wrong. The opposites are true. Adaptability, meritocracy, and legitimacy are the three defining characteristics of China’s one-party system. Now, most political scientists will tell us that a one-party system is inherently incapable of self-correction. It won’t last long because it cannot adapt. Now here are the facts. In 64 years of running the largest country in the world, the range of the party’s policieshas been wider than any other country in recent memory, from radical land collectivization to the Great Leap Forward, then privatization of farmland, then the Cultural Revolution, then Deng Xiaoping’s market reform, then successor Jiang Zemin took the giant political step of opening up party membership to private businesspeople, something unimaginable during Mao’s rule. So the party self-corrects in rather dramatic fashions. Institutionally, new rules get enacted to correct previous dysfunctions. For example, term limits. Political leaders used to retain their positions for life, and they used that to accumulate power and perpetuate their rules. Mao was the father of modern China, yet his prolonged rule led to disastrous mistakes. So the party instituted term limits with mandatory retirement age of 68 to 70. One thing we often hear is political reforms have lagged far behind economic reforms and China is in dire need of political reform. But this claim is a rhetorical trap hidden behind a political bias. See, some have decided a priori what kinds of changes they want to see, and only such changes can be called political reform. Thetruth is, political reforms have never stopped. Compared with 30 years ago, 20 years, even 10 years ago, every aspect of Chinese society, how the country is governed, from the most local level to the highest center, are uecognizable today. Now such changes are simply not possible without political reforms of the most fundamental kind. Now I would venture to suggest the Party is the world’s leading expert in political reform. The second assumption is that in a one-party state, power gets concentrated in the hands of the few, and bad governance and corruption follow. Indeed, corruption is a big problem, but let’s first look at the larger context. Now, this maybe be counterintuitive to you. The party happens to be one of the most meritocratic political institutions in the world today. China’s highest ruling body, the Politburo, has 25 members. In the most recent one, only five of them came from a background of privilege, so-called Princelings. The other 20, including the President and the Premier, came from entirely ordinary backgrounds. In the larger central committee of 300 or more, the percentage of those who were born into power and wealth was evensmaller. The vast majority of senior Chinese leaders worked and competed their way to the top. Compare that with the ruling elites in both developed and developing countries, I think you’ll find the Partybeing near the top in upward mobility. The question then is, how could that be possible in a system run by one party New we come to a powerful political institution, little-known to Westerners: the Party’s Organization Department. The Department functions like a giant human resource engine that would be the envy of even some of the most successful corporations. It operates a rotation pyramid made up of there components: civil service, state-owned enterprises, and social organizations like a university or a community program. The form separate yet integrated career paths for Chinese officials. They recruit college grads into entry-level positions in all three tracks, and they start from the bottom, called Keyuan Then they could get promoted through four increasingly elite ranks: fuke, ke, fuchu, and chu. Now these are not moves from karate kids, okay It’s serious business. The range of positions is wide, from running health carein a village to foreign investment in a city district to manager in a company. Once a year, the department reviews their performance. They interview their superiors, their peers, their subordinates. They vet their personal conduct. They conduct public opinion surveys. Then they promote the winners. Throughout their careers, these cadres can move through and out of all three tracks. Over time, the food ones move beyond the four base levels to the fuju and ju, levels. There, they enter high, officialdom. By that point, a typical assignment will be to manage a district with population in the millions or a company with hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue.

TED英语演讲:社交时代的孤独 几分钟之前我的女儿Rebecca发了一条短信为我加油。她说“妈妈,你会震撼全场的!”我太喜欢这个了接到这条短信就像得到了她的拥抱。所以大家看到了我自己就处在这样一个核心矛盾里。我自己非常喜欢收短信但却要告诉大家太多的短信会成为一个大问题。 事实上,我的女儿让我想起了这个故事的开端。1996年我第一次在TED演讲的时候Rebecca只有5岁她就坐在那里最前排。那时我刚刚写了一本书庆祝我们的网络新生活而且将要成为《连线》杂志(Wired)的封面人物。在那些令人陶醉的日子里我们体验着网络聊天室和在线虚拟社区。我们正从不同的角度探索自己。然后我们回到现实中来。我对此感到非常兴奋。作为一个心理学家,最令我兴奋的就是这样的理念:我们会运用我们在虚拟世界中对自己,对我们自身认同的了解改善我们的现实生活。 现在让我们快进到20xx年我又重新回到了TED的讲台。我的女儿已经是一名20岁的大学生了。她睡觉都抱着她的手机。其实我也是。我刚刚完成了一本新书,但是这一本却不会让我登上《连线》杂志的封面。那这十几年间发生了什么呢?我仍然为科技而兴奋但是我相信并且想要向大家说明我们正在放任科技它将我们带向歧途。 在过去的20xx年间我一直在研究移动通信技术的影响并且访问了成百上千的人,年轻的或年长的了解他们的“移动生活”。我发现我们口袋中那些轻巧的电子设备在心理学上有着如此强大的力量它们不仅改变了我们的生活方式也改变了我们本身。我们现在用电子设备做的一些事情在几年前还被认为是稀奇或让人讨厌,但是很快大家就习以为常——只是我们的行事方式而已。 让我们来举几个简单的例子。人们在公司的董事会议上发短信或写邮件,人们发短信,网购,浏览脸谱——上课时,听报告时,实际上在几乎所有的会议时。甚至有人告诉我一项重要的新技能——发短信时如何与别人进行眼神交流!(笑)他们说这虽然难但还是可以做到的。父母们在早餐和晚餐时发短信和邮件孩子们因此抱怨父母对他们不够关注。但是同时这些孩子也很少专心地与彼此相处。这是一张我女儿和她朋友们最近的照片,她们虽然处在同样的空间确没有真正地一起相处。人们甚至在葬礼上发短信。我研究这一现象:我们需要别的东西来分散我们的悲伤或者胡思乱想所以我们需要玩手机。 这样有什么问题吗?我认为这的确是个问题:我们正在为自己挖陷阱,这个陷阱无疑会影响人与人之间的联系,同时也会影响我们和自己的联系,降低我们认识和反省自己的能力。我们越来越习惯这种新的”一起独处”的相处方式。人们希望待在一起,但是同时也“在别处”——连线到他们想去的不同地方。人们想要定制他们的生活,想要在不同的场合和地点之间切换,因为对他们来说最重要的是控制和分配他们的精力。例如你想去参加董事会议但是只想关注你感兴趣的一小部分内容。有人认为这是好事但是长此以往,人们就会对别人隐藏自己,即便我们一直保持着彼此间的联系。 一位50岁的商人曾悲哀地告诉我他觉得工作时不再有同事了。他工作时不会停下来和别人说活。他不打电话他说他不想打断他的同事,因为,他说:“他们都在忙着发邮件。”但是然后他停下来,他说:“其实我没有说实话,”“我也不想让别人打扰我。”“我觉得我应该想(被打扰)的,”“但是实际上我更愿意用我的黑莓手机(联系别人)。” 不管哪一代人,我发现他们没法从彼此那里得到足够的关注——如果他们仅仅将彼此保持在一种可以控制的距离范围里。我把这种现象称作Goldilocks适宜效应:不太近,也不太远,刚刚好。但是对于刚才那位中年商人来说刚刚好的距离对需要学会与人面对面交流的青少年来说,却可能太过疏远。有一个18岁的孩子他几乎任何事情都用发短信解决,他惆怅地跟我说“总有一天,但是当然不是现在我会学习一下如何跟人交谈。” 我问人们“为什么不面对面交谈?”他们回答说:“因为面对面交谈是实时发生的,你没法控制你要说什么。”所以这才是最重要的:发短信,写邮件,贴照片发状态所有这些都能让我们向别人呈现出我们想变成的样子。我们可以编辑就是说我们可以删除,可以修改和润色我们的面容,声音甚至我们的整个形象让它不少也不多刚刚好。 人类的关系非常丰富也很复杂,而且需要技巧和精力来处理。我们现在可以用技术使它变简便。在我们做这种简化时一个很可能的问题就是我们为了简便的联系放弃了面对面的交流。我们这是自欺欺人。长此以往我们似乎忘记了这一点或者没有人在乎这一点了。 StephenColbert问过这样一个让我猝不及防的深刻的问题。非常深刻。他说:“难道那些微小的简短的在线交流的片段加在一起不能等同于真正的交谈吗?”我的回答是“不能”。那些片段不能整合在一起。以这种小片段的方式交流可能可以收集到那些精心修饰过的信息,可能表达“我在想你”,甚至表达“我爱你”,的确,想象一下接到女儿那条短信时我有多么高兴。但是那些小片段很难让我们互相了解,真正地了解和理解对方。我们在与彼此交谈的同时也学习着如何同自己交流。所以放弃面对面交谈确实有着很大的影响,因为这会损害我们自我反省的能力。对于孩子们来说这项能力是成长的一个重要的基石。 我一次又一次地听到:“比起说话我更愿意发短信。”我所看到的也是人们如此习惯于自欺欺人,逃离真实的交谈,如此习惯于逃向更少更浅的交流,以至于他们几乎越来越希望躲开别人。比如说,很多人跟我讲过这样的愿望,有一天,更高版本的Siri,(苹果公司iphone的智能语音助手)会更像一个好朋友,一个当别人都无暇顾及你时还耐心聆听的挚友。我相信这样的愿望反映了过去20xx年间我了解到的一个痛苦的事实:那种“没有人愿意听我倾诉”的感觉在我们与科技的关系里起了重要的作用。这是解释了为什么我们这么喜欢脸谱页面或者推特页面。上面有这么多自动生成的听众呀!而且那种没人倾听的感觉使我们更愿意和看似关心我们的机器待在一起。 我们在开发一种被称作“社会性机器人”的产品,它们是专门设计来陪伴老人,孩子,甚至我们每个人的。我们已经对给予彼此关怀毫无信心了吗?(要转而依赖机器人?)我的有一项在疗养院进行的研究,我们把“社会性机器人”带到疗养院里希望它们可以给予老人被理解的温暖感。一天,我走进疗养院看到一位失去孩子的妇女正在对着一个小海豹形状的机器人说话。这个机器人看上去像在看她的眼睛,看上去像听得懂她说话,它可以给她安慰,很多人都觉得这种技术很棒。 但是那位妇女居然在试图让一个对人类的生活轨迹毫无感受的机器理解她!那个机器人只是完成了一场很棒的表演。我们是如此脆弱,会把伪装的同情和共鸣当作真的。在那位妇女沉溺于机器人带给她的伪装的同情的时候,我在想:“那个机器人不可能真正地同情。”它不用面对死亡,它也根本不懂人生。 看到这位从机器人的陪伴中寻找安慰的妇女,我一点都不觉得这技术先进,我发现那是我这20xx年的工作里最复杂,最纠结,最不是滋味的时刻。但是当我退一步来看,我感到自己就在这场完美风暴冰冷无情的中心。我们对于技术的期望越来越多对彼此的期望却越来越少。我问自己:“为什么会这样呢?” 我相信,原因是技术最吸引我们的地方正是我们最脆弱的一方面。我们都很脆弱——我们很孤独却又害怕亲密的关系。所以我们研发社交网站和“社会性机器人”这样的技术使我们可以在不需要真正友情的情况下体验被关心和陪伴的幻觉。我们借助技术找到和别人保持联系的感觉并且可以舒服地控制这种联系。但是其实我们并没有这么舒服,也没能很好地控制。 如今,我们口袋中的手机正在改变我们的想法和我们的心灵,缘于它们带来了三种让人兴奋的错觉一,我们可以把精力分配到任何我们想关注的地方;二,总会有人倾听我们;三,我们永远都不用独自一人。这第三种“我们永远不用独处”的错觉对于改变我们的心理状态是最关键的。因为当人们独处的时候,即使只有几秒钟,他们也会变得焦虑,恐慌,坐立难安,因而转向那些电子设备。想想在人们在排队的时候,等红灯的时候。独处像是变成了一个亟待解决的.问题。所以人们试着用联系别人的方法解决它。但是这种联系更像是一种症状而不是真正的治疗。它表达着我们的焦虑,却没有解决根本的问题。但是它又不仅仅是一种症状——频繁的联系改变着人们对自己的理解。它催生了一种的新的生活方式。 对此最好描述是,“我分享,故我在。”我们用技术来定义自己,——分享我们的想法和感觉,甚至在我们刚刚产生这些想法的时候。所以以前,情况是我有了一个想法,我想打电话告诉别人。现在,事情变成了,我想要有个想法,所以我需要发短信告诉别人。这种“我分享,故我在”的问题在于如果我们跟别人断了联系,我们就感觉不再是自己了。我们几乎感觉不到自己的存在了。所以我们怎么办呢?我们的联系越来越多。但是与此同时我们也把自己隔绝起来。 为什么联系会导致隔绝呢?原因是没有培养独处的能力——一种可以与外界分离,集中自己的思想的能力。在独处中,你可以找到自己这样你才能很好的转向别人,与他们形成真正的联系。当我们缺乏独处能力的时候,我们联系别人仅仅是为了减少焦虑感或者为了感觉到自己还活着。这时候,我们并不真正地欣赏别人,而这好像是把他们当作支撑我们脆弱的自我感的备用零件。我们简单地认为总和别人保持联系就能让我们不那么孤单。但是这是有风险的,因为事实恰好相反。如果我们不能够独处,我们会更加孤单。而如果我们不能教会我们的孩子独处,他们只能学会如何体验孤独。 1996年我在TED演讲,报告我关于早期虚拟社区的研究时曾说:“那些对于网络世界最为投入的人是带着一种自我反省的精神上网的。”这也是我现在想要呼吁的我们需要一些反思,更甚者是,展开对话讨论我们目前对技术的应用会将我们带向何方,会让我们失去什么。我们被技术(带来的错觉)迷住了,而且我们就像年轻的恋人一样害怕说太多话会毁掉浪漫的气氛。但是是时候该交谈了。数字技术伴随我们长大,所以我们也认为技术已经很成熟。实则不然,它还在起步阶段。我们还有很多的时间来反思我们应当如何应用它,如何发展它。我并不是说我们应该抛弃我们的电子设备,我只是建议我们应当与电子设备,与别人,也与自己,建立更加有自我意识的关系。 我们可以从这些方面开始改变:把独处当做一件好事,为它留出空间。向你的孩子们说明独处的价值。在家里开辟出专门的空间,例如厨房或者客厅,用于和家人交谈。在工作中也可以这样。我们在工作时总是忙于(浅层的)联系,以至于没有时间思考,也没有时间谈论那些真正重要的事情。是时候改变了。最重要的是,我们真的需要聆听彼此,包括说的那些无聊的细节。因为正是在我们结巴,迟疑,找不到合适的词的时候,我们才向对方展现出真实的自我。 技术正在试图重新定义人们的联系——例如我们怎样关心别人,和关心自己——但是它也给了我们机会来确认我们的价值观和发展方向。对此我很乐观。我们拥有做这种改变所需的一切。我们身边有彼此,而且我们有很大的几率成功,只要我们意识到我们的脆弱性——我们会轻信技术能“将复杂的事情变简单”的这种脆弱性。 在我的工作中,我常常听到“生活很难”,“人际关系充满风险”云云。然后技术出现了,更简单,充满希望,乐观而充满朝气。就像天降一位专家,解决所有烦恼。一个系列广告这样说:在线使用虚拟形象(avartar)系统,你“最终就可以爱你的朋友,爱你自己,爱你的生活,如此简单。”我们被虚拟的爱情吸引,被电脑游戏营造的奇幻世界吸引,也被“机器人将会变成我们最好的伴侣”的想法所吸引。我们晚上泡在社交网站上,而不是和现实中的朋友去酒吧玩。
