Good News and Bad News
新标准大学英语3 UNIT1-We are all dying原文+译文
We are all dying我们都在走向死亡have some good news and some bad news for you (as the joke goes). The bad news –and I'm very sorry to be the bearer –is that we are all dying. It's true. I've checked it out. In fact, I've double –and triple-checked it. I've had it substantiated and, well, there's no easy way to say it. we are dying. It's something that I always kind of knew, but never really chose to think about too much. But the fact is, within the next 70 or 80 years –depending on how old you are and how long you last – we are all going to be either coffin dwellers or trampled ash in the rose garden of some local cemetery. We may not even last that long. After all, we never quite know when the hooded, scythe-carrying, bringer-of-the-last-breath might come-a-calling. It could be sooner than we'd like. I have watched death from the sidelines, quite recently in fact, and nothing underlines the uncertainty and absolute frailty of humanity like the untimely exit of a friend.我给你带来一条好消息，还有一条坏消息（正如笑话所说的）。
Asia – The Good News and the Bad News
44Asia – The good News and the bad NewsA f t e r a s e r i e s o f c l i e n t meetings and presentations across Asia, the US and UK discussing the state of the world economy in the post credit boom world, we identify three key themes: 1. Confusion reigns in the short term over the direction of economies and policy, discretionary investors are keeping their powder dry amid the external uncertainties of the timing of the US Fed rate hike, the latest round in the Greek crisis, and China’s stock-market volatility (the last two overhangs may be easing already). The forthcoming US interest rate tightening cycle is clouding the policy direction outlook for central banks in the region. More monetary easing would be justified if monetary conditions tightened again, or if external growth faltered. 2. Implications of China opening up its capital account while dealing with its prior credit growth excesses is a major issue. We see the potential for converting local government investment vehicle (LGIV) debt to securities as a significant long-term positive for financial stability. Figure 1: China followed by ASEAN + India to be biggest global growth contributors Contributions to world GDP growth by region (ppt)Stock market-related uncertainty and volatility should now ease, in our view. 3. Potential impact of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). T he bank could become a credible, positive disruptor in infrastructure financing across Asia, crowding in private-sector inflows and diverting real-money investments away from sovereign bonds in major markets. Confused? You are not aloneLife in a rudderless growth environment We do not see a credit boom in any major market currently. T his may sound obvious, but it has left many economies adrift in a rudderless environment. They are not experiencing a productivity or investment boom and they lack a consumer credit binge in a large market to leverage off. China is unlikely to allow another credit boom on the heels of the last one. Based on global growth contributions shown in Figure 1, China accounts for just under twice the contribution to global growth of the next biggest contributor, the US. In the next few years, the combination of ASEAN and India (AXCJ) is likely to contribute more to global growth than the US. Longer-term, better delivery by Asia ex-Japan (AXJ) economies on infrastructure spending could boost trend growth in the region (see the AIIB section below for more). T he US is furthest along in its recovery, but only compares favourably with Europe, which is still in a shallow recovery. US growth is on track to disappoint consensus for the fifth consecutive year in 2015 (we were below consensus). In such an environment, global demand is a weak growth driver for Asia. Domestic demand, which supported growth so well in 2012 and 2013, is also looking untenable as a growth driver, as much of the prior growth was due to credit booms in the region. Following the 2013 US taper tantrum, which weakened exchange rates in Asia and boosted (and flattered) external demand contributions to GDP growth, there was some respite. T his came at a good time, as credit booms in the region eased off and domestic demand growth contributions softened. T he pressure is back on for exchange rates to soften now, and we have revised our AXJ exchange rate calls to expect more weakness against the US dollar (USD) across the board until end-2015. In the more extreme circumstance of a hawkish surprise, we modelled likely FX reactions in our Special Report US shocks – quantifying the global impact, 17 April 2015. In our modelled USD cross-reactions the unintuitive reaction of the Korean won (KRW) triggered a lot of debate during recent client meetings. Ultimately, while all models are usually wrong, some are – as the famous quote goes – useful. Korea’s top trading partner has changed from the US to China in the past decade, and the likely outperformance shown below may therefore not be reality with a hawkish US outcome this time around. It still makes sense, however, to expect the Turkish lira (T RY), Indonesian rupiah (IDR) and Brazilian real (BRL) to underperform the KRW and Chinese yuan (CNY) in such a scenario . Prior leverage excesses in the region, with some silver lining Asia’s growth prospects have near-Source: IMF, Standard Chartered Research, Note: AXCJ is ASEAN + India 1.41.21.00.80.60.40.20.0By David Mann, Shuang DingCopyright©博看网 .

The near-term challenge is that while the global growth environment remains soft, Asia has already run up credit excesses that need to be worked off. During this deleveraging period, we expect softer growth in the following sectors: Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong SAR and Korea’s household sector,and India and China’s corporate sector (see Figure 2). We see room for further growth from the financial deepening of China, India and Indonesia’s household sectors, which have the lowest leverage levels in the region.In addition to financial deepeningin the consumer sectors of China, India and Indonesia, investment is the other growth component with room to drive further growth. We think investment strength is vital, as the majority of Asian countries will see demographics either adding less to or weighing on growth in the next 5-10 years (Figure 4). Most economies also have only a fifth of the capital stock per worker than the US or Japan has today (see Figure 3). T here is plenty room to invest more, including in China. So far investment within the region has been relatively disappointing, partly due to weak policy implementation. While investment disappoints, theexternal environment is still pressuring domestic monetary conditions in the region to tighten. T his has been driven by both components of our monetary conditions indices: low inf lation has driven up real interest rates, and USD strength against major currencies has meant relative strength of AXJ currencies on a real effective exchange rate (REER) basis. Therefore, while the US monetary outlook may be complicating policy choices for policymakers in the region, most economies’ policy is biased towards even more easing. China – LGIV debt swap kills two birds with one stone W hile China’s stock-market volatility has been a major distraction in recent days, we think policy makers’ efforts to reduce risks created by the prior credit boom are encouraging. The LGIV debt-for-loan swap has several benefits. Banks benefit from a tax exemption on bond coupons and capital savings (as local-government bonds have a risk weighting of 20%, versus 100% for loans). Banks could therefore extend more new loans, with the new loan quotas being released by the swapprogramme and on an improved capital adequacy ratio. Local-government debt not covered by the swap programme (see below) will carry the credit risk of ordinary loans. The second benefit is that these new securities will provide more assets for foreign investors to buy as the capital account opens up further. T he size of the local-government bond market will likely match that of the central government in the next five years. We think the government will replace all debt for which local governments have direct payment responsibility. Based on the official debt audit, total local-government debt amounted to CNY 18tn as of mid-2013, of which local governments were directly responsible for about CNY 11tn. Taking into account new debt issued by local governments since mid-2013, debt covered by the swap programmeshould total CNY 12tn, at least. CNY 2-3tn will be replaced by bonds thisyear, according to the current plan and the latest announcements, and we think at least CNY 10tn will be swapped in the next five years. On top of the swap programme that deals with existing debt, we expect local governments to issue more bonds to finance their budget deficits (CNY 500bn per year at least). We estimate that the local-government bond market will exceed CNY 15tn in five years, and the total government (including the central-government) bond market will exceed CNY 30tn (or USD 5tn), nearly the size of China’s all-inclusive bond market as of end-2014. T he government is likely to make the local-government bond market more accessible to foreign investors. Foreign investors can now access China’s bond market through the interbank bond market (limited to central banks, sovereign wealth funds, Renminbi clearing and settlement banks, multilateral financial institutions and insurance firms), the QFII and the RQFII. We expect the government to increase the quotas under these channels (eventually replacing individual quotas with an aggregate quota) and allow more investors to participate in the domestic bond market. Local-government bonds are currently rated by domestic rating agencies; we expect the government to allow foreign rating agencies to rate these bonds, which would help broaden the investor base. A IIB cou ld help f u l f i l t heregion’s investment potential The new AIIB, which is expectedto start operating from 2016, could be a long-term positive disruptor for otherorganisations operating in the region, such as the World Bank, International Finance Corporation and Asian Development Bank, and could boost investment in the region. We believe China wants to build the AIIB into a credible institution thatenables faster infrastructure investmentspending in its neighbouring economies. This is in China’s own interests, as it can1.https:///wiki/All_models_are_wrong Copyright©博看网 .

If the AIIB can share long-term country risk with the private sector, this could ‘crowd in’ investment and provide the platform for a sizeable long-term trend of investment flows out of G10 sovereign debt markets into infrastructure debt in emerging economies. However, this scenario is far from reality at the current stage. The factors holding back investment growth now may remain a key challenge in the region. But we noted significant interest among investor clients in this topic. A proper environment for global investors to invest in emerging market infrastructure-related assets with appropriate credit-risk mitigation has significant potential to drive regional growth, in our view. We think AIIB impetus over the next few years would be timely as Asia’s population dynamics shift from a key growth driver to becoming a hindrance (see Figure 4). Likely labour contribution to growth for much of North-east Asia is likely to look increasingly like Japan’s. In Southeast Asia, labour contribution to growth is likely to largely remain positive but continue to decline. We believe the region’s need to identify other growth drivers will become more urgent nearing the 2020s.Figure 2: Leverage metrics: China’s five-year average credit-GDP gap shows the inefficiency of past credit growth (%, unless otherwise indicated)olours indicate leverage and potential stress: red = high, yellow = moderate/sustainable, green = low Data as of Dec-2014, China numbers are for Q1-2015; Source: Bloomberg, BIS, IMF, Standard Chartered Research estimates The size of the bubble represents the relative size of the economy C a p i t a l s t o c k p e r w o r k e r (U S D '000) 400350300250200150100500-50Productivity index (US 2005 = 100) 0 20 40 60 80 100 120(Authors: David Mann, Chief Economist, Asia Standard Chartered Bank, Singapore Branch; Shuang Ding, Head, Greater China Economic Research Standard Chartered Bank (HK) Limited )Copyright©博看网 .

I, on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: But now, though he swears i am cured of my blindness, i am not able to see a single thing in it."画眉嘴国王Jacob and Wilhelm GrimmA king had a daughter who was beautiful beyond all measure, but at the same time so proud and arrogant that no suitor was good enough for her. She rejected one after the other, ridiculing them as well.Once the king sponsored a great feast and invited from far and near all the men wanting to get married. They were all placed in a row according to their rank and standing. First came the kings, then the grand dukes, then the princes, the earls, the barons, and the aristocracy. Then the king´s daughter was led through the ranks, but she objected to something about each one. One was too fat: "The wine barrel," she said. Another was too tall: "Thin and tall, no good at all." The third was too short: "Short and thick is never quick." The fourth was too pale: "As pale as death." The fifth too red: "A prize rooster." The sixth was not straight enough: "Green wood, dried behind the stove."And thus she had some objection to each one, but sheridiculed especially one good king who stood at the very top of the row, and whose chin had grown a little crooked. "Look!" she c ried out, laughing, "He has a chin like a thrush´s beak." And from that time he was called Thrushbeard.Now the old king, seeing that his daughter did nothing but ridicule the people, making fun of all the suitors who were gathered there, became very angry, and he swore that she should have for her husband the very first beggar to come to his door.A few days later a minstrel came and sang beneath the window, trying to earn a small handout.When the king heard him he said, "Let him come up."So the minstrel, in his dirty, ragged clothes, came in and sang before the king and his daughter, and when he was finished he asked for a small gift.The king said, "I liked your song so much that I will give you my daughter for a wife."The king´s daughter took fright, but the king said, "I have taken an oath to give you to the very first beggar, and I will keep it."Her protests did not help. The priest was called in, and she had to marry the minstrel at once. After that had happened the king said, "It is not proper for you, a beggar´s wife, to stay in my palace any longer. All you can do now is to go away with your husband."The beggar led her out by the hand, and she had to leave with him, walking on foot.They came to a large forest, and she asked, "Who owns this beautiful forest?""It belongs to King Thrushbeard. If you had taken him, it would be yours.""Oh, I am a miserable thing; If only I´d taken the Thrushbeard King."Afterwards they crossed a meadow, and she asked again, "Who owns this beautiful green meadow?""It belongs to king Thrushbeard. If you had taken him, it would be yours.""Oh, I am a miserable thing; If only I´d taken the Thrushbeard King."Then they walked through a large town, and she asked again, "Who owns this beautiful large town?""It belongs to king Thrushbeard. If you had taken him, it would be yours.""Oh, I am a miserable thing; If only I´d taken the Thrushbeard King.""I do not like you to always be wishing for another husband," said the minstrel. "Am I not good enough for you?"At last they came to a very little hut, and she said, "Oh goodness. What a small house. Who owns this miserable tiny hut?"The minstrel answered, "This is my house and yours, where we shall live together."She had to stoop in order to get in the low door."Where are t he servants?" said the king´s daughter."What servants?" answered the beggar. "You must do for yourself what you want to have done. Now make a fire at once, put some water on to boil, so you can cook me something to eat.I am very tired."But the king´s da ughter knew nothing about lighting fires or cooking, and the beggar had to lend a hand himself to get anything done at all. When they had finished their scanty mealthey went to bed. But he made her get up very early the next morning in order to do the housework.For a few days they lived in this way, as well as they could, but they finally came to the end of their provisions.Then the man said, "Wife, we cannot go on any longer eating and drinking here and earning nothing. You must weave baskets." He went out, cut some willows, and brought them home. Then she began to weave baskets, but the hard willows cut into her delicate hands."I see that this will not do," said the man. "You had better spin. Perhaps you can do that better." She sat down and tried to spin, but the hard thread soon cut into her soft fingers until they bled."See," said the man. "You are not good for any sort of work.I made a bad bargain with you. Now I will try to start a business with pots and earthenware. You must sit in the marketplace and sell them.""Oh!" she thought. "If people from my father´s kingdom come to the market and see me sitting there selling things, how they will ridicule me!"But her protests did not help. She had to do what her husband demanded, unless she wanted to die of hunger.At first it went well. People bought the woman´s wares because she was beautiful, and they paid her whatever she asked. Many even gave her the money and let her keep the pots. So they lived on what she earned as long as it lasted. Then the husband bought a lot of new pottery. She sat down with this at the corner of the marketplace and set it around her for sale. But suddenly there came a drunken hussar galloping along, and he rode right into the pots, breaking them into a thousand pieces. She beganto cry, and was so afraid that she did not know what to do."Oh! What will happen to me?" she cried. "What will my husband say about this?" She ran home and told him of the misfortune."Who would sit at the corner of the marketplace with earthenware?" said the man. "Now stop crying. I see very well that you are not fit for any ordinary work. Now I was at our king´s palace and asked if they couldn´t use a kitchen maid. They promised me to take you. In return you will get free food."The king´s daughter now became a kitchen maid, and had to be available to the cook, and to do the dirtiest work. In each of her pockets she fastened a little jar, in which she took home her share of the leftovers. And this is what they lived on.It happened that the wedding of the king´s eldest son was to be celebrated, so the poor woman went up and stood near the door of the hall to look on. When all the lights were lit, and people, each more beautiful than the other, entered, and all was full of pomp and splendor, she thought about her plight with a sad heart, and cursed the pride and haughtiness which had humbled her and brought her to such great poverty.The smell of the delicious dishes which were being taken in and out reached her, and now and then the servants threw her a few scraps, which she put in her jar to take home.Then suddenly the king´s son entered, clothed in velvet and silk, with gold chains around his neck. When he saw the beautiful woman standing by the door he took her by the hand and wanted danced with her. But she refused and took fright, for she saw that he was King Thrushbeard, the suitor whom she had rejected with scorn.Her struggles did not help. He pulled her into the hall. Butthe string that tied up her pockets broke, and the pots fell to the floor. The soup ran out, and the scraps flew everywhere. When the people saw this, everyone laughed and ridiculed her. She was so ashamed that she would rather have been a thousand fathoms beneath the ground. She jumped out the door and wanted to run away, but a man overtook her on the stairs and brought her back. And when she looked at him, it was King Thrushbeard again.He said to her kindly, "Don´t be afraid. I and the minstrel who has been living with you in that miserable hut are one and the same. For the love of you I disguised myself. And I was also the hussar who broke your pottery to pieces. All this was done to humble your proud spirit and to punish you for the arrogance with which you ridiculed me."Then she cried bitterly and said, "I was terribly wrong, and am not worthy to be your wife."But he said, "Be comforted. The evil days are past. Now we will celebrate our wedding."Then the maids-in-waiting came and dressed her in the most splendid clothing, and her father and his whole court came and wished her happiness in her marriage with King Thrushbeard, and their true happiness began only now.I wish that you and I had been there as well.。

使用社交媒体的好处和缺点英语作文
使用社交媒体的好处和缺点英语作文全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Hello everyone, today I want to talk about the good things and bad things about using social media. Social media is something that almost everyone uses nowadays, especially us kids.First of all, let's talk about the good things. One of the best things about social media is that we can easily stay connected with our friends and family. We can chat with them, share photos and videos, and even video call them if we want. It's so cool to be able to talk to our friends even if they are far away!Another good thing about social media is that we can learn new things from it. We can follow pages and accounts that share interesting facts, news, and videos. It's a fun way to learn and stay updated on what's happening in the world.But, there are also some bad things about social media. One of the biggest problems is that sometimes people can be mean or bully others online. They can say mean things or spreadrumors, and it can be really hurtful. We need to be careful and kind when we are using social media.Another bad thing is that social media can be addictive. Sometimes we spend too much time on our phones and forget to go outside and play. We need to make sure we are balancing our time between using social media and doing other fun things.In conclusion, social media can be a great way to connect with others and learn new things, but we also need to be careful and use it responsibly. Let's all be kind and respectful online!篇2Social media is so cool! It's like a magical place where you can talk to your friends, see funny videos, and share all the fun things you're doing. But, like everything else, there are good things and not-so-good things about using social media.First of all, let's talk about the good stuff. The best thing about social media is that you can stay connected with your friends and family, no matter where they are. You can send them messages, pictures, and even video chat with them! Isn't that awesome? You can also make new friends from all over the world, and learn about different cultures and traditions. It's like having a big, global playground!Another great thing about social media is that you can find all sorts of interesting and useful information. You can learn new things, like how to cook a delicious meal, or how to fix something that's broken. You can also keep up with the latest news and trends, so you always know what's going on in the world. Plus, there are tons of fun games and quizzes that you can play with your friends. It's like having a never-ending source of entertainment!But, of course, there are some not-so-great things about social media too. One big problem is that some people use it to spread fake news and misinformation. They might share things that aren't true, or try to trick you into believing something that's not real. So it's really important to always check your facts and make sure you're getting information from reliable sources.Another downside of social media is that it can be really addictive. You might find yourself spending hours and hours scrolling through your feed, instead of doing other things that are more important. It's like a never-ending loop of scrolling, liking, and commenting, and before you know it, the whole day has gone by!And, of course, there's also the issue of privacy. When you're on social media, you're sharing a lot of personal information withthe world. You might not realize it, but companies and advertisers are collecting data about you, and using it to target you with ads. Plus, there's always the risk of your accounts getting hacked, or your private messages being leaked. So it's really important to be careful about what you share online, and who you share it with.Overall, social media can be a really fun and exciting place to hang out with your friends, learn new things, and stay connected with the world. But it's also important to be aware of the risks and drawbacks, and make sure you're using it in a safe and responsible way.

You can also follow your favorite celebrities and stay updated on their latest news and activities. Plus, social media is a fun way to express yourself and show off your creative side. You can post cool photos, write blogs, or even make videos.But, there are some drawbacks to using social media too. Sometimes, it can be a bit addictive. You might find yourself spending hours scrolling through your feed instead of doing homework or going outside to play. And, not everything you see on social media is true. People can post fake news or try to trick you into believing something that isn't real. It's important to always fact-check before sharing anything online. Also, spending too much time on social media can sometimes make you feel lonely or left out. Remember, it's not healthy to compare yourself to others or seek validation from likes and comments.In conclusion, social media can be a great tool for staying connected and expressing yourself, but it's important to use it wisely. Make sure to take breaks, be mindful of what you share, and don't let it take over your life. Remember, real-life connections are just as important as online ones. So, go out there, have fun, and enjoy social media responsibly. Thanks for listening!篇4Using social media has both advantages and disadvantages. Let me tell you all about it!First of all, the good things about using social media is that we can connect with our friends and family, no matter where they are in the world.

With that being said, social media canbe a great way to stay connected and have fun, as long as we use it responsibly.篇5Using social media can be really fun and cool, but there are also some good and bad things about it. Let me tell you!First, the good things about using social media. One of the best things is that you can stay connected with your friends and family all the time.

好消息坏消息的读后感
好消息坏消息的读后感Good News, Bad News: A Reflection.English Response:Good news and bad news are two sides of the same coin. They are inevitable aspects of life that we all experienceat some point. While good news brings joy, hope, and excitement, bad news often brings disappointment, sadness, and despair. Both types of news have their own impact on us, and how we react to them can shape our perspective on life.Good news is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. It uplifts our spirits and fills us with positive energy. It can come in various forms, such as receiving a promotion at work, achieving a personal goal, or hearing about the birth of a healthy baby. Good news gives us a sense of accomplishment and motivates us to strive for more. It reminds us that life is full of possibilities and that we are capable of achieving great things.On the other hand, bad news can be like a heavy storm that shakes us to our core. It brings with it a wave of negative emotions and can leave us feeling helpless and defeated. Bad news can come unexpectedly, such as the loss of a loved one, a job termination, or a serious illness diagnosis. It tests our resilience and challenges us tofind strength in difficult times. While bad news is undoubtedly difficult to handle, it also presents an opportunity for personal growth and reflection.Both good news and bad news have the power to shape our lives. How we respond to them is crucial. When faced with good news, it is important to celebrate and appreciate the positive moments in life. It reminds us to be grateful for the blessings we have and to cherish the people who bring joy into our lives. Good news also teaches us to remain optimistic and to keep working towards our goals, even when faced with challenges.When confronted with bad news, it is natural to feel overwhelmed and distraught. However, it is important toremember that bad news is not the end of the world. It is a part of life, and our response to it can define our character. Bad news can be an opportunity for personal growth and resilience. It teaches us to lean on our support systems, to seek help when needed, and to find strength within ourselves. It reminds us that we are capable of overcoming adversity and that there is always hope for a better tomorrow.In conclusion, good news and bad news are inevitable aspects of life. While good news brings joy and hope, bad news can be challenging and difficult to handle. However, both types of news have the power to shape our lives and our perspective on life. It is important to celebrate the good moments, remain optimistic in the face of challenges, and find strength in difficult times. Life is a journey filled with ups and downs, and it is our response to both good and bad news that ultimately defines who we are.中文回答：好消息和坏消息是同一枚硬币的两面。

The good news and the bad news（好消息和坏消息）_50字
Monitor:
Everyone，please listen to me。I will tell you a good news and a bad news。
TheS:What is the news。
Monitor:The final exam was cancelled。
唐宋或更早之前，针对“经学”“律学”“算学”和“书学”各科目，其相应传授者称为“博士”，这与当今“博士”含义已经相去甚远。而对那些特别讲授“武事”或讲解“经籍”者，又称“讲师”。“教授”和“助教”均原为学官称谓。前者始于宋，乃“宗学”“律学”“医学”“武学”等科目的讲授者；而后者则于西晋武帝时代即已设立了，主要协助国子、博士培养生徒。“助教”在古代不仅要作入流的学问，其教书育人的职责也十分明晰。唐代国子学、太学等所设之“助教”一席，也是当朝打眼的学官。至明清两代，只设国子监（国子学）一科的“助教”，其身价不谓显赫，也称得上朝廷要员。至此，无论是“博士”“讲师”，还是“教授”“助教”，其今日教师应具有的基本概念都具有了。TheS:Great!But what is the bad news?
