            is mon that good friends known several years fall out to bee 
            enemies, and the friendship also bees the chip of business。。。
              In fact friendship will not die out, but people do not know to 
            value it 。The famous writer Bi Shumin once said in a piece of paper, 
            〃 There is only one fruit in the tree of friendship, which is 
            Trust。〃 Friendship is a kind of nutrition for people that is the 
            most simple and the most luxurious at the same time, which needs 
            irrigating with trust and true feelings。 It is just like the flower 
            living in the fortable hothouse。 Only with the attentive care, 
            can it bee more and more beautiful。 In the modern and changeable 
            age, we should abide by the an-cient rule, which is trust。 
            Friendship is so hard that it may exist forever as long as you treat 
            it with heart。 
              Trust is one kind of precious feeling in the world。 No one can buy 
            it with money, and no one can get it by cheating or force。 It es 
            from the innermost soul of people。 Just like clean spring, it washes 
            away the dirt of mon customs and makes you pure and 
            self…confident。 Moreover, it can clear away the obstacles in your 
            heart and help you gain more friend-ship。 
              In the real life, what will be kept in the history is not material 
            wealth, but mutual affection being loyal…hearted。 Let us abandon 
            suspicion, hate out of jealousy, and deal with friends in all 
            sincerity。 Believing that our eyes will brighten, and there will be 
            even more happy laughter and cheerful voices in our world。

            信任的力量
            同学们:
              下午好!
              今天我所要演讲的内容仍然围绕着人类的一个亘古不变的话题进行,那就是———友情。千百年来,世人对于“朋友”的阐释有千种万种,但我一直坚决地认为,对这一定义的最好解释只需两个字,那就是信任。前不久,读了一篇久远而真实的故事,更坚定了我这一看法。
              那是在公元前四世纪的意大利,有一个名叫皮斯阿司的年轻人因触犯了暴君而被判处绞刑。皮斯阿司是个孝子,临死之前,他希望能与远在百里之外的母亲见最后一面。国王感其诚孝,决定让他回家与母亲相见,但条件是必须找到一个人来代替他。这是一个看似简单其实近乎不可能实现的条件。要知道,有谁肯冒着被杀头的危险来替别人坐牢?但世界上真的有这样的人,他就是皮斯阿司的朋友达蒙。于是,皮斯阿司如愿以偿回家与母亲诀别。
              日子如水,眼看刑期在即,可皮斯阿司却丝毫没有回来的迹象。人们议论纷纷,都说达蒙上了皮斯阿司的当。
              行刑日是个雨天,当达蒙被押赴刑场之时,围观的人都在嘲笑他,但刑车上的达蒙却面无惧色。绞索已经挂在达蒙的脖子上,就在这千钧一发之际,淋漓的风雨中一人飞奔而来,高呼着:“等等,我来了!”是皮斯阿司回来了。
              这是人世间最最感人的一幕。达蒙为顾全朋友的孝心置自身安危于度外,这种精神可歌可泣;皮斯阿司为履行诺言不惜以生命为代价,这种勇气世间又有几人能具备?同学们,面对死刑,达蒙之所以坦然,就在于他相信皮斯阿司不是那种言而无信、出卖朋友的小人,这就是信任的力量。
              这是一个真实的震撼人的灵魂的故事,尤其对于尊崇自我中心化的现代人而言,它更是发人深省。友情是人间的宝藏,是人生的坐标,是保持心灵之花永不枯萎的甘露。真正的朋友会在你消沉时以微笑激励你奋起直追,会在你得意时以忠言提醒你保持清醒。可是,在当今现实利益具有无上威力的社会里,友情却变得脆弱而吝啬,数年的好友可能一夜间反目成仇,友情也可能成为交易的筹码……
              其实,友情不会泯灭,只是人们不懂得珍惜。著名作家毕淑敏在一篇文章中提到:“友情:这棵树上只结一个果子,叫做信任。”友谊是最简朴同时也是最奢侈的营养,需要用信任和真情去灌溉;它仿佛温室中的花朵,只有在悉心地呵护和滋养下才会愈加娇艳和灿烂。在什么都是越现代越好的年代里,友谊,我们还应保持那古老的准则———信任。只要你信任以待,友情就会永远地捍卫在你的周围,成为你终生的财富。
              信任是一种弥足珍贵的感情,没有人能够用金钱买得到,也没有人可用利诱和武力得到。它来自一个人的灵魂深处,仿佛流淌的清泉,涤除世俗的污垢,让心灵充满纯洁和自信;它可以拯救灵魂,扫除盘踞于人内心深处的屏障,使你获得加倍的友谊。
              人生一世,消失的是岁月,收获的是情谊。长留史册的,不是锱铢必较的利益,而是肝胆相照的情分。让我们抛弃猜疑和嫉恨,以信任之情和朋友坦诚相待。相信我们的眼睛将云翳顿散,相信我们的世界会有更多的欢声笑语。

Mother's Love

            My dear friends:
              Do you know what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the 
            world? 
              Money? You may lose everything you have if you do not use money 
            carefully enough。 Youth? In one?'s long life youth is like a flash 
            in the pan and no one in the world has the secret to keep his youth 
            forever。 Beautiful look? Many people pray that they can get hold of 
            beauty; but it disappears far more quickly than they can imagine。 
            And when they are in real trouble beauty itself feels helpless。 A 
            good job? As you grow older and your brain and hands cannot work as 
            fast as before; it will bee other people?'s wealth。
              Then what is the most precious and ev-erlasting thing in the 
world?
               When you are far away from your fam-ily and feel especially 
            lonely; who will you think of? When you stand on the crossroad in 
            your life and do not know which way to choose; who will you think 
            of? When you encounter greater difficulties than ever and need 
            other?'s encouragement; who will you think of? When you decide to 
            make the greatest decision in your favorite course; who will you 
            think of? Who gave birth to you? Who brought you up? Who shed 
            cheer-ful tears when seeing you make achieve-ments? Whose 
            wholehearted blessing will be always with you no matter how far you 
            will go?
              Yes; it's mother that you will always think of and it's mother's 
            love that will be always together with you。
               I once heard a moving story about a mother。 Two children were 
            drawn into the flood and the situation was very dangerous。 Their 
            mother jumped into the water without the least hesitation。 But you 
            know the moth-er could not swim at all。 Jumping into the water means 
            she might lose her life。 But at that time she had no time to think 
            about herself。 She just wanted to try all means to save her 
            children。 
              Maybe her courage moved the God。 The miracle happened。 She finally 
            succeeded in saving her children one by one。 And she; of course; 
            felt extremely ex-hausted。
              My friends; mother's love is the greatest love。 Mother's love is 
            the safest love。 No matter you are happy or sorrowful; rich or poor; 
            mother's love will always stay with you。
              Thank you all!
            母  爱
            灵 筠(译)
            亲爱的朋友:
              你知道什么是世界上最珍贵、最永恒的事物吗?金钱?不!不是!因为即使你腰缠万贯,但如果挥霍无度的话,你也会有不名一文的时候。青春?也不是!在人漫长的一生中,青春如昙花一现,稍纵即逝,世界上谁也没有永葆青春的秘诀。也许你会说美貌,我觉得也不是。尽管很多人都希望美丽常在,可是往往不如人意,况且我们一旦陷入困境时,即使拥有美貌,那也无能为力。那么,一个好的工作应该是了吧?但是,朋友,你应意识到,随着年龄的逐渐增大,我们一天天在衰老,思维呢,不如以前敏捷;手脚呢,也不如人家灵活。这时,你不能胜任那个工作了,即使它再好,也不得不拱手相让。
              那么,到底什么才是世界上最珍贵、最永恒的事物呢?
              当你远离家乡漂泊异地,倍感孤单寂寞的时候,你会想到谁?当你站在人生的十字路口,迷惘彷徨,不知何去何从时,你会想到谁?当你在挫折和痛苦面前悲观、叹息、失望,急需别人的安慰和鼓励时,你会想到谁?人生道路,需要你做出重大抉择时,你会想起谁?是谁给了你最初的生命,把你带到这个世界,享受多姿多彩的生活?是谁教你说话,教你走路,含辛茹苦把你抚养成人?当你取得成绩时,谁会激动得泪流满面?谁的祝福,无论你走得多远,都会围绕在你身边,直到永远?
              是的
