Eleanor Roosevelt was born in New York City on Oct. 11, 1884, into an economically comfortable but troubled family. Her father was Elliott Roosevelt, the younger brother of Theodore Roosevelt(26th president), a future president of the United States.,Eleanor Roosevelt began attending Mademoiselle Souvestres school at South Fields, England at 15. Mademoiselle Souvestre taught a sense of social service and responsibility, which Eleanor began to act upon after her return to New York. Roosevelt plunged into social work, but soon her tall, handsome cousin, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, began courting her. They were married in March 1905.,Beginnings of a Public Career Between 1906 and 1916, the Roosevelts had six children, one of whom died in infancy(婴儿期;幼年 ). The family lived at their estate at Hyde Park, from which Franklin pursued his political ambitions in the Democratic Party. He served a term in the New York State Senate before President Woodrow Wilson appointed him assistant secretary of the Navy in 1913.,A major turning point in Eleanors life came in 1921, when Franklin contracted polio and permanently lost the use of his legs. Eleanor nursed him back into activity. Within a few years he had regained his strength and political ambitions. Meanwhile, she entered more fully into public life. She acted as Franklins “legs and ears”. During Franklins New York governorship, she saw the last of her children off to boarding school and kept busy inspecting state hospitals, homes, and prisons for her husband.,A Presidents Wife Roosevelts election to the presidency in 1932 meant, as Eleanor later wrote, “the end of any personal life of my own.” She quickly became the best known (and also the most criticized) First Lady in American history. She undertook a syndicated newspaper column and a series of radio broadcasts, and she traveled back and forth across the country on fact finding trips for Franklin. She assumed the special role of advocate for Americans that social programs during the Depression tended to neglect and secured equal opportunities for women under the New Deals work relief projects.,World Figure As the United States moved toward war in the late 1930s, Eleanor Roosevelt spoke out forcefully in favor of the administrations policy of aiding antifascist(反对法西斯主义的) governments. Once the United States formally entered the war, she made numerous trips to England, Europe, and the Pacific area to boost troop morale(士气,斗志) and to inspect Red Cross facilities.,After Roosevelts death in April 1945, Eleanor was expected to retire to a quiet, uneventful private life. Yet, by the end of the year, however, she was back in public life and continued to work for international understanding and cooperation as a representative of the American Association for the United Nations. During the last decade of her life, Eleanor Roosevelt traveled to numerous foreign countries, including two trips to the Soviet Union, and authored several books. She died in New York City on Nov. 6, 1962. -Edited from: http:/www. answers. com/Anna Eleanor Roosevelt,2. Eleanor Roosevelts Quotes 1) Absence makes the heart grow fonder. 2) Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world. 3) Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. 4) Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product. 5) I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do, provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experience behind him.,6) I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision. 7) If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor. 8) Im so glad I never feel important, it does complicate life! 9) In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility. 10) It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness. 11) It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself. 12) Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.,13) My experience has been that work is almost the best way to pull oneself out of the depths. 14) Never allow a person to tell you no who doesnt have the power to say yes. 15) No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. 16) The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. 17) Understanding is a two-way street.,18) When life is too easy for us, we must beware or we may not be ready to meet the blows which sooner or later come to everyone, rich or poor. 19) Women are like teabags. We dont know our true strength until we are in hot water! 20) You can never really live anyone elses life, not even your childs. The influence you exert is through your own life, and what youve become yourself. Source:http:/www. /quotes/authors/e/eleanor_roosevelt. html,3. Tchaikovskys The Nutcracker “The Nutcracker and the King of Mice” (The story behind the ballet) The Nutcracker Ballet is based on the story “The Nutcracker and the King of Mice” written by E. T. A. Hoffman. Although what is seen on the stage today is different in detail from the original story, the basic plot remains the same. It is the story of a young German girl who dreams of a Nutcracker Prince and a fierce battle against a Mouse King with seven heads. When Marius Petipa had the idea to choreograph(为编舞) the story into a ballet, it was actually based on a revision by Alexander Dumas, a well known French author. His version reflects more of what we have come to love as the Nutcracker Ballet.,The Party Scene It is Christmas Eve at the Stahlbaum house A large and grand house with the most beautiful tree imaginable. The Stahlbaums are hosting their annual Christmas party, welcoming the arrival of their family and friends. The children, Clara and Fritz, are dancing and playing as they welcome their friends too. The party grows festive with music and dance as godfather Drosselmeyer arrives. He is a skilled clock and toy maker and always full of surprises. Drosselmeyer draws everyones attention as he presents two life-size dolls. They are the delight of the party, each taking a turn to dance.,The children begin to open gifts when Drosselmeyer presents his to Clara and Fritz. Although his gift to Fritz is quite nice, he gives Clara a beautiful Nutcracker that becomes the hit of the party. Fritz becomes jealous and, having a bit more spunk than a boy should have, grabs the nutcracker from Clara and promptly breaks it. Clara is heartbroken looking on as Drosselmeyer quickly repairs the Nutcracker with a handkerchief he magically draws from the air. As the evening grows late, the guests depart and the Stahlbaum family retires for the evening. Clara, worried about her beloved Nutcracker, sneaks back to the tree to check on him, falling asleep with him in her arms.,The Fight Scene As the clock strikes midnight strange things begin to happen. Clara begins shrinking as her beautiful Christmas tree grows high above her. The toys around the tree come to life while the room fills with an army of mice, lead by the fierce Mouse King. As the Nutcracker awakens, he leads his army of toy soldiers into battle with the mice. The Mouse King corners the Nutcracker and battles him one-on-one. The Nutcracker seems to be no match for the Mouse King. The Nutcracker and his army can go on no longer and are captured by the mice and their King. Clara makes a final daring charge throwing her slipper at the Mouse King, hitting him square on the head. The Mouse King drops to the floor and the mice run away, carrying off their leaders lifeless body.,The Land of Snow The Nutcracker turns into a Prince and takes Clara on a journey to the Land of Snow, an enchanted forest wonderland where they are welcomed by dancing snowflakes. The Land of Sweets The Prince escorts Clara to the Land of Sweets where they are greeted by the Sugar Plum Fairy. The Prince tells her about their daring battle with the army of mice and she rewards them with a celebration of dances. As a finale, the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Cavalier dance a beautiful Pas De Deux.,The Dream Ends Clara awakens from her dream and finds herself by her Christmas tree with her beloved Nutcracker. -http:/www. nutcrackerballet. net/html/nutcracker_story. html,A Bad Principal Taught Me a Good Lesson Mana Solavn,T,1 She stood at the front of the room and faced us all as if we were prisoners. “Keep in mind that Im the boss,” she said. “You will do as you are told, and if you dont, Ill make your live miserable!” This was my first faculty meeting of the year and this woman was my principal.,她站在房间前面,像看囚犯一样地看着我们。“记住,我是这里的老板,”她说,“照我说的去做,否则,你们就别想有好日子过。”这就是当年我第一次开教师大会的情景,而这个女人就是我的校长。,坏校长给我上了人生深刻的一课,teach/give somebody a (good) lesson 教训某人,Mr. Smith stared at John, ready to teach him a good lesson.,This car accident has taught him a good lesson.,miserable very unhappy or uncomfortable 痛苦的,不舒适的,He felt depressed and miserable.,She was miserable for months after her breakup with Mike.,misery 痛苦,悲惨;不幸 n. a state of ill-being due to affliction or misfortune; a feeling of intense unhappiness,War breeds misery and ruin.,It brought years of misery to Lebanonand, of course, no peace in the end to Israel.,faculty n. 1) all the teachers in a school, college or university 全体教员,The University of Toronto has about 55,000 students and 12,000 faculty and staff members.,The faculty was a mixed ethnic group, as the school mainly taught foreign languages.,2) any of the powers of the body or mind 官能,能力,The old man has lost his faculties and cant take care of himself.,3) special ability 特殊才能,The faculty to give a great speech can be learned.,2 Young, vulnerable, and reluctant to stand up for myself, I was the perfect victim.
