Good morning, my dear teachers 自我介绍+开场白 What is friendship? The answers may be different. But one thing is clear that friendship is the most important ingredient in the recipe of life. We cannot live without friendship just as we cannot survive without air and water. Friendship gives us a feeling of security and warmth, and friendship encourages us to go ahead all the time. Everyone needs friends and is eager to get friendship. When we feel happy, we can share our happiness with friends. When we feel gloomy, friends will comfort us. If we are arrogant, our friends can persuade us, and they can make us confident and brave when we are discouraged. Friendship is valuable. It can touch your heart and give you hope. Many people are proud of having a good friend. True friendship must be sincere and must not have conditions. If you help your friends for no reason but simply because they are your friends, this means that you regard your friends as yourself. This is true friends. True friendship should be based on mutual understanding, not on mutual benefit. Moreover, both must also have similar ideals. If not, their friendship still cannot last long. Sometimes, people have good friends when they are young and studying in school. However, after graduation, when they are working in the society, their friendship will soon come to an end. Mutual understanding doesn’t always mean that we should know every thing of our friends. It means that they have similar ideals and trust each other. On the other hand, doing similar things can build up the friendship. In fact, friendship isn’t always easily kept. When you want to keep a friend, you should treat him or her like you want to be treated. Keep the secrets that your friend tells you. Keep your promise with your friend. Share things with your friend. Stick up for your friend. We should try our best to protect the friendship from being hurt. As an old saying goes, “Friendship cannot stand always on one side.” True friendship should be able to stand all kinds of tests. Because of friendship, our lives are full of happiness. Therefore, the more friends we have, the more pleasure we can share with them. Let’s say “Thank you” to our friends for their love and care. No matter where we go or who we become, never forget to keep the beautiful friendship!

我也是英语的爱好者，如果你是女生的话我建议你可以看美剧Gossip girl,里面的角色很漂亮，讲的是高中和大学，以及社会的一些生活，画面丰富多彩，这是讲述美国的上东区，内容时尚。另外就是（全美超模大赛），里面是tyra banks等十分有名气的主持，里面选模特不但是头脑简单的外貌协会，重要的是全面发展的综合素质。话题比较适合女生，时尚，潮流，激动。这是在学英语的同时也放松地认识了另外一种文化。加油。

TED里面的演讲就足够你提高好几个档次了，里面的视频演讲短的3分钟，长的20分钟。之前我也选择了各方面的学习资料，最终我还是选择了TED，一方面开拓了眼界，感觉自己像井底之蛙，另一方面我觉得如获至宝，浓厚的兴趣被激起，动力十足。我选择了比较适合听力、自己也比较喜欢的36篇文章（12篇一组），把文稿打印出来，疯狂的研究疯狂的听疯狂的读，慢的语速150词每分钟，快的达到220词每分钟，听起来完全没压力。第一组我话的时间最多（3个月听烂），到了第二组第三组就快多了，平常走路、吃饭、睡觉都在听，我的目标是100篇TED！！ 口语纠正的话看你想学什么？美音还是英音。我强烈推荐这本书，就是讲发音的，书太贵，在网上找电子版的和音频吧！ 当然听说是分不开的，听力好的前提是自己对发音的掌控比较好，国内没有英语环境就自己制造英语环境吧，抓住一切可以开口的机会。

True friendship is not childhood innocence to play with each other, but each other adult deep feelings.True friendship but also because what does not seek to rely on what is not, but even more great. 只能想到这些 希望给你带点灵感

Edward ScissorhandsPlotThe film opens with an elderly woman reciting a story of a man named Edward (Johnny Depp), the creation of an inventor (Vincent Price), who unfortunately died before he could give Edward hands. Later scenes show that this inventor had been inspired to make an artificial man by the anthropomorphic appearance of his other inventions. He had raised Edward as his son and tutored him in various subjects, but died of a cardiac arrest while in the act of offering a pair of hands to Edward.In a flashback immediately following the opening, local Avon saleswoman Peg Boggs (Wiest) fails to make any profits in her neighborhood. Driven by a whim, she visits a pseudo-medieval mansion on a hill. Once inside, she finds Edward, a friendless, pallid youth having scissors in place of hands. She decides to take him home and adopts him into her family. Thus, Edward is forced to adjust to new surroundings. He quickly befriends Peg's son, Kevin (Robert Oliveri) and after an initial misstep, her daughter Kim (Winona Ryder).Peg's conformist neighbors, while initially curious of her visitor, become thrilled at Ed's masterful skills at hedge clipping and haircutting. However, two of the townspeople — a religious fanatic named Esmeralda (O-Lan Jones) and Kim's thuggish boyfriend Jim (Anthony Michael Hall) — dislike him immediately. The resident town slattern, Joyce (Kathy Baker) suggests that Edward opens a haircutting salon with her, as a ruse to pull him aside from the others. While examining a proposed site, she attempts to seduce him — confusing Edward, who escapes the room in a state of panic. Edward attempts to bring up the subject of her actions while the family is having dinner, but no one reacts to the news.Wanting money for a van, Jim takes advantage of Edward's ability to pick locks and breaks into his own home. The burglar alarm sounds, and all but Edward escape, over Kim's furious protest. Edward is arrested, but is scheduled to be released when a psychological examination reveals that his isolation had allowed him to live without a traditional sense of ethics. The arresting officer, Allen, befriends the timid Edward, sensing his intrinsic goodness.Shortly thereafter, Peg's husband Bill (Alan Arkin) tests Edward's moral code and asks Edward about what to do if he finds a briefcase full of money. Edward, not thinking about whence the money came or realizing it might have an owner, selflessly declares that he would give all the money to his loved ones. Bill tells Edward that this is not morally right, but Kim defends Edward, saying it is the kindest choice. Humiliated at the earlier rejection, Joyce tries to claim that Edward tried to rape her. Many of the neighbors begin to gossip and slowly turn against Edward. During Christmas, Edward is therefore ostracized and disliked by almost everyone around him except his hosts, thus making him an outcast.While the family is preparing for Christmas decorations, Edward is carving an ice sculpture from a block of ice. The ice shavings create effect of precipitating snow, under which Kim dances. Jim, passing by, catches Kim's attention, whereupon Edward, unaware of her presence, turns around and accidentally cuts Kim's hand. Jim assumes that Edward deliberately harmed her, and uses this as a pretext to attack Edward in a jealous rage. The situation worsens when Kevin is almost run over by Jim's drunken friend, who is driving their van. Edward, seeing Kevin in danger, pushes him out of it, mistakenly cutting his face. In the confusion, the neighbors (including some of Kim's family) misunderstand the situation, thinking Edward attacked Kevin. They form an angry mob and pursue him to his creator's hill-top mansion (a reference to the climax of Frankenstein). Officer Allen, out of concern for Edward, attempts to turn back the mob by giving them the impression that Edward is dead, but the neighbors do not believe this and are outraged that Officer Allen let him go. They continue to the mansion, presumably to kill Edward themselves in order to bring justice to their own hands or to see if Officer Allen really did kill Edward.Kim, who also refuses to believe that Edward's dead, hastens to enter the mansion. There, she reunites with Edward. Jim follows them and attacks both, one after the other. During the fight, Edward refuses to retaliate until he sees Kim in danger. Connecting his previous experiences in his mind, Edward uses his sharp fingers to kill Jim, who falls out of a window. Recovering, Kim kisses Edward on the mouth, whispering that she loves him, and goes out to meet the mob, who have assembled near Jim's corpse. Kim seizes a scissored implement from the nearby machines and presents it as proof that Edward and Jim have killed each other. All the neighbors (presumably either relieved, a little depressed that they didn't get to kill Edward, or guilty that they tried to kill him) then return home.The elderly woman from the beginning of the movie reappears, telling her granddaughter the story. When the granddaughter asks her of Edward's fate, she says she believes that Edward is still alive in the castle. She supports her assertion with the statement that before Edward came, snow never fell on the valley, but has come ever since his departure. The old lady attributes the snow to Edward and remarks that she still dances in it, revealing that she is a significantly older Kim. The granddaughter questions Kim as to why she did not return to visit Edward, and receives the reply that she (Kim) wants Edward to remember her the way she was. Viewers then see Edward, apparently unchanged, creating an ice sculpture in chilled chambers of his mansion. He is surrounded by other ice-sculptures that he has created, including one of a girl dancing. As Edward works, the flurry of ice shavings is thrown, presumably by Edward himself, onto the valley and onto the town below.

edX（大规模开放在线课堂平台）。

edX是麻省理工和哈佛大学于2012年5月联手发布的一个网络在线教学计划。该计划基于麻省理工的MITx计划和哈佛大学的网络在线教学计划，主要目的是配合校内教学，提高教学质量和推广网络在线教育。

据介绍，该计划将整合2所名校师资，推出1个版本，将使10亿人受益。除了在线教授相关课程以外，麻省理工和哈佛大学将使用此共享平台，进行教学法研究，促进现代技术在教学手段方面的应用，同时也加强学生们在线对课程效果的评价。

对此，麻省理工校长苏珊·霍克菲尔德博士指出：“edX是提升校园质量的一项挑战，利用网络实现教育，将为全球数百万希望得到学习机会的人们提供崭新的教育途径”。麻省理工Anant Agarwal教授在麻省理工教务长拉斐尔·莱夫的领导下，就任edX的第一任主席。
