Imagine this:you aretwenty-one years old and a promising graduate student at one of the top universities in the would.One day,your doctor tells you that you have an incurable disease and may not have mone than twelve months to live months to live.how would you feel ? what would you do? Most of us would probably feel very sad and give up our dreams and and hopes for the future. Here is what Stephen Hawking thought:
(There did not seem) much point in working on my PHD--I did not expect to survive that long. Yet two years had gone by and I was not taht much worse .In fact, things were going rather well for me and I hand got engaged a job , and in order to get a job , I needed a PhD.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter11:Solutions to Trade Imbalance
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42883.html

World trade is an important topic today. The World Trade Organization has focused international attention on global trade issues,especially in China. Today,trade imbalance between the United States and our country is becoming worse. We cannot leave this problem unattended,because the United States is the most important trade partner. I'd like to make a couple of proposals to improve the whole situation. First,we need to do more public relations activities to promote understanding, because some of their criticisms are based on misconceptions about our country. We have to communicate with them more by sending lobbyists,producing more movies,publishing more books,and so on. Second,we have to make an effort to encourage American companies to do business in our country. We should revise our protectionist practices in trade,and promote free trade and competition. At any rate,our country and the United States need each other,and we have to maintain communication to understand each other.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter12:Japanese Textbook - Premier Zhu's Opinion
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42882.html

The question of the history textbook is not just an issue between China and Japan. Rather it is an issue between Japan and all the Asian countries and people throughout Asia. If the past history of aggression started by Japanese militarists is denied and if the historical facts are distorted, it will not only hurt the feelings of the Chinese people,but also those of people throughout Asia. I don't think this is an issue that should be regarded as interference in Japan's internal affairs. Rather,this is a serious issue that will have a bearing on whether or not the people of Japan and of other Asian countries,including China,can develop a friendly relationship from generation to generation. So it is also in the interest of Japan to have this problem solved.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter9:Business Etiquette - Business Card
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42886.html

Business cards are less important in American culture than they are in Asian culture. Knowing the right way to handle business cards is a useful skill where will you are. Requesting someone's business card is a staight forward process. You need only say," Do you have a business card?" or " May I have your business card?" When you want to present your own card you can say," Here is my card. Feel free to call me if you have any other questions." Or you might say," Please sent the information to the address. I look forward to hearing from you soon." It's not polite to directly refuse a request of someone for your business card. Instead you can say," Sorry, but I am afraid I am all out at the moment." or " I forgot to bring them with me." When you do receive a card, say " Thank you." and exam it briefly before putting it away.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter8:Restaurants dos and Don'ts
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42887.html

What is considered polite in one country is sometimes considered rude in another. In other words, sometimes you should slip (sound of slip) and sometimes you shouldn't. Learning about culture differences while you learn English is the fastest way.  To brought your knowledge of the world and become more successful. When eating, the Japanese and some Chinese are in a habit of slipping (sound of slipping) their food. By doing so they show their host how much they like the food. Westerner find eating soup this way most unpleasant. They also consider picking one's teeth and putting on make-up on the table nonoes. And when it comes to tipping, they just leave some money on the table. The ammount is up to you,  but it is usually 15 to 20 percent of the cheque.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter7:Table Manners
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42889.html

There are many differences in table manners in different cultures. It is really worth your time to learn about how to behave while eating in other countries. Now your table manners will show your international qualifications. Don't make noises with your mouth. Close your mouth when eating. People make mouth noises because they eat without closing their mouths. When you drink your soup, don't sip it but swollow it all in one mouth full. Don't talk when your mouth full. If someone talks to you, wait untill your mouth is empty before answering.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter6:Be Polite
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42890.html

Good manners are so important in today's society. A little effort of  being polite to everyone you meet can have great rewards. Of course there are other reasons for being polite as well. Everyone should be polite. Polite people show good manners. Moreover, they are popular. On the other hand, rude people are looked down upon. Rudeness shows poor education. Therefore, why not be polite? A simple "Please", "Thank you" or " You are welcome" can make a big difference. If someone says dirty words all the time, it shows that something is wrong with his mouth. You'd better persuade him to watch his mouth.

李阳疯狂英语之国际肌肉三最短文 Chapter3
http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42893.html

Expressing oppinions is one example of culture difference between east and west. Westerner express their oppinions freely. They feel that it is natural for people that have different ideas and don't mind hearing you that differ from their own. You may express frankly what you think  or feel. Of course, you shouldn't be rude in your manner of speech. Statements such as " You are wrong", "You are mistaken", "You don't know", etc are exactly bad. But it is preferable to soft your  tone. You might say, " I don't think you are right", " I am fraid you are mistaken", or "You don't seem to understand".

http://www.tingroom.com/lesson/szdw/42894.html

If you don't understand, don't hesitate to ask. Some Chinese seem to feel that it is impolite to ask questions even when they don't quite understand. However, it's much better to say that you don't understand than to pretend you understand and answer very vagely. When you don't understand, or have a clock what was said, you may ask by saying any of the following.
I beg your pardon? I am not clear on what you said.
I am fraid I don't understand you. Would you mind saying it again?
I am sorry I don't follow you. Could you repeat that?
I didn't get it.
You'll improve your understanding and the speaker will be happy to make his point again.
