“I’m going to marry you one day.” Beth said to herlong time crush Jake. She wore her favorite blueteddy bear shirt. Her four-year-old blue eyes shinedin the sun.
“No you’re not, you’re a girl.” Jake said.
The California afternoon wind blew his lightbrown hair. Jumping off the monkey bars he laughedback to class.
Sitting alone and confused she didn’t knowwhat to do. Beth sat high on the monkey barscrying. How can her future husband just leave like that?
She was going to get him, but how? “I will not let him get away! I won’t! I won’t!”
15 years later:
“I love you, too, Jake.” Hanging up the phone she caught her mom smiling. “What?”
“When is he coming in from France? He’s been there for awhile.” She sat down on her blackleather couch. The house was made up of different Indian stuff. On the walls were differentdream catchers. Her mother was a full blood Cherokee Indian. She passed away when Beth waseight.
“He has a lot of schooling to do right now. Maybe this Saturday.”
Fixing her short overalls she thought of Jake. Who would have thought they were going todate when she turned five?
“Is he still living in Colorado?” Her mother Kay wore a white tank top with tan pants. Andlong blonde hair with pretty blue eyes. She was the most beautiful woman on Earth. And Bethis looking like her by the minute.
“Yeah, I hate having a long distance relationship.” She plopped on a leather chair.
“It’s ok baby, you know he loves you more than anything in this world. Love will keep youtogether.”
Beth could not help but smile. Her mother is and will always be her best friend.
Jake sat in his hotel the school rented for him. School of law. He loved going overseas foreverything. But he missed being with Beth. That hurt him the most.
Spending the lonely nights in the hotel made him think of how much it would hurt to spendthe rest of his life without her in it.
Getting up off his bed he went into the bathroom. Watching his reflection in the mirror, allhe could think about was Beth. He would leave Thursday, and get there Friday night.
Turning off the light he jumped into the cold bed. On a coffee table near his bed rested aframe with them in it. It was taken at a beach about two years ago. It was the best time oftheir lives.
It was Thursday morning and Beth waited for Jake’s morning phone call. He would call ateight — it was ten.
Beth got out of bed and got her favorite blue tank top. She took off her shirt andscreamed at the top of her lungs.
“What? What?” Her mother came rushing into her room. Staring at her naked daughter shesaw the lump of her breast. “Does it hurt?”
Beth could only say “No.” Looking at the lump, she cried in pain.
“Let’s get you to the doctor.”
“Ok, let me get dressed.”
Shutting the door behind her, the room became silent. Shaking she put on her shirt, andran out into the living room.
“Mom, where are my blue shorts?”
“In the dresser, second drawer.”
Finishing getting dressed she hopped into her car. Her red mustang drove like a baby.
They waited for the doctor to come in. Beth could not begin to think she had cancer. As hermind drifted off her cell phone rang.
“Hello?” Her heart skipped a beat, hoping it was Jake.
“Hey, how are you?” He asked out of breath.
“Could be better. Why didn’t you call me this morning?”
“Sorry, school got ahold of me today.”
“Why are you out of breath?” Looking stunned she stared at her mother.
“I’m so sorry, he’ll call back.” Her mother gave Beth a hug.
The doctor came in, and greeted his self. “Hello. I’m Kevin Baker.” He smiled while examiningher breast.
A few minutes went by while they waited for ananswer. “Yeah, it’s cancer, it looks like it’s been therefor a while.”
Jake sat in the waiting room, unsure about goingin or not. He just waited, five minutes passed as hewalked towards a CNA. “Hi. My girl friend is seeing adoctor right now, can I have the room number?”
She checked her files. “What’s her name?”
“Beth Fowley.” Jake looked around the waitingroom.
“Jake!” Beth said surprised. She gave him a hug. He held her tightly, never wanting to let goof his angel. “I missed you so very much. I left last night; I could not stand being without youagain.” He kissed her lips.
“I missed you, too.” Beth answered back.
“Let’s go home.” Kay hugged Jake.
Once they got home Jake grabbed her by the hand and sat her down.
“Beth, I loved you all my life. Ever since I saw you on the monkey bars, saying you weregoing to marry me. I knew I loved you. I can’t spend another lonely night at home without youbeing there. You make my life complete. Will you marry me, Beth?”
Tears of pain flooded her blue eyes. “I can’t marry you.” She shook her head, “I just can’t.”
Getting up, her mother tried stopping her. But Beth closed the door behind her. The doorthat she hid behind, hoping one day she could wake up, and the cancer could be gone. AndJake can have a wonderful life with her. Forever. How can he love someone that is going to diefrom cancer?
A week passed, message after message, Beth would not answer. Her mother would answerthe phone every time he called. Jake had no idea what was going on. He needed to talk to Bethright away, and holding his phone calls was not going to help one bit. It couldn’t help thecanyon deep whole in his heart that was full of pain.
He had to see her, whether she liked it or not. He had to tell her he didn’t care whathappened to her, he still wanted to be with her. Getting dressed in his blue jean shorts, and hisfavorite white shirt she loved to see him in. He got into his car.
Reaching her door he looked in the driveway, her mother’s car was not there. Now shewould have to face him, and not hide behind her mother. He knocked.
“Coming.” Beth answered, she opened the door. She wore a red robe with her name on it.She got from her grandma a few years ago.
“Please let me in, we need to talk.”
She could not be rude. They needed to talk alright, about how he was going to lose hisonly love to cancer. How was he going to take that? She opened the door wider, and he slowlywalked in.
“I hate how you can’t talk to me. I hate that we can’t be together. Don’t you understand Ilove you?” He ran his hand through his brown hair frustrated. “You can tell me anything youneed to. I’m here for you today, tomorrow, and forever. And you know this. Now what iswrong?”
He cradled her on the leather couch. All her fears, and pain went away for that moment.Nothing seemed to matter, but him and her, together, forever. A silent tear ran down her rightcheek and landed on Jake’s shoulder.
“I love you, that’s why I have to let you go.” She wiped her tear. Jake hated to see her soupset; she was usually a strong willed person. Her coming down like this was not usual, and itfreaked him out.
“Let me go? Come on, what’s wrong?” Jake held her tighter, giving her a light kiss on hercheek.
“I have breast cancer. I found out a few weeks ago. I don’t want to marry you, and haveyou get hurt…”
He stopped her words with the sweetest kiss man could make. All her doubts and fearsslowly drifted away like the wind. Everything fell into place; they found the love they thoughtthey had missed.
They will forever be in love’s arms.
爱的港湾--总有一天我会嫁给你
贝丝对她爱慕已久的杰克说:“总有一天我会嫁给你。”她穿着最喜欢的带玩具熊的蓝色衬衣。四岁的她,蓝色的眼睛在阳光下闪闪发亮。
杰克说:“不,不行,你还是一个小女孩呢。”
加利福尼亚午后的微风吹拂着他浅棕色的头发。他从单杠上跳下来,一路笑着跑回了教室。
贝丝独自坐在那里,满脸迷惑,不知所措。她坐在高高的单杠上哭起来。她未来的丈夫怎么就这样走开了呢?
她一定要得到他,但该怎么做呢?“我不会让他离开我!不会!绝不会!”
15年后
“我也爱你,杰克。”挂断电话之后,她发现母亲在笑。“怎么了?”
母亲坐在黑皮沙发上说道:“他什么时候从法国回来啊?他在那里待了有一阵子了。”整栋房子都是印度风格的设计,墙上挂满了各种不同的捕梦网。母亲的母亲是纯正的切罗基印第安血统。在贝丝八岁时她就去世了。
“他现在学业很繁重,可能要到这周六才行。”
整理短裤的时候,她突然想起了杰克。在她还是个五岁孩子时,谁会想到他们会约会呢?
“他还在科罗拉多吗?”她母亲凯穿着白色的背心和褐色的短裤。她有着长长的金发和漂亮的蓝眼睛。她是这个世界上最美丽的女人。贝丝长得越来越像她了。
“是的,我真讨厌这种天各一方的感觉。”她一屁股坐在皮椅上。
“不要担心,宝贝,你应该明白他爱你胜过世界上的其他任何东西。爱会使你们在一起的。”
贝丝禁不住笑了起来。母亲现在是而且永远都会是她最好的朋友。
杰克坐在学校为他租的旅馆里。他读的是法学院。他愿意为了任何事情出国。但他又非常想念贝丝。这令他非常痛苦。
在旅馆度过一个个孤单的夜晚,使他体会到生活中没有了她将是多么痛苦。
他从床上爬起来,走进浴室。看着镜子里的自己,脑子里想的却都是贝丝。他周四就要出发,周五晚上就能够到达。
他关了灯,爬上冰冷的床。在床边的咖啡桌上有一张他们两人的照片。那是两年前他们在海边拍的。那是他们生命中最美好的一段时光。
周四早上,贝丝正在等杰克的电话。他通常会在八点打过来,但现在已经十点了。
贝丝下了床,拿出自己最喜欢的那件蓝色衬衣。她脱下睡衣,突然尖叫起来。
她母亲冲进房间问道:“怎么了?怎么了?”看到女儿裸着身子,她注意到了她胸部的肿块。“疼吗?”
贝丝只是说“不”,她盯着那个肿块,痛哭起来。
“走,我们去看医生。”
“好吧,我穿上衣服。”
她关上了门,屋内一片寂静。她颤抖着穿上了衬衣,突然跑回了客厅。
“妈妈,我的蓝短裤呢?”
“在衣柜里,第二个抽屉。”
穿好衣服,她跳进汽车。她的红色野马脱缰而出。
在等待医生的时候,贝丝禁不住怀疑自己得了癌症。正当她的思绪游离的时候,手机响了。
“你好?”她的心跳加速,希望是杰克的电话。
“嘿,你好吗?”他上气不接下气地问道。
“还不错。你今天早上怎么没给我打电话?”
“对不起,今天学校事情比较多。”
“你怎么气喘吁吁的啊?”她突然感到有点头晕,看了母亲一眼。
母亲拥抱着贝丝说:“真是可惜,不过他还会打过来的。”
这时,医生进来并做了自我介绍:“您好,我是凯文·贝克。”在检查她胸部的时候,他一直保持微笑。
几分钟过去了,她们等到了结果。“是的,是癌症。而且好像已经有一段时间了。”
杰克坐在候诊室,不知道是否该进去。他一直在那里等着,五分钟之后,他走过去问一位助理护士:“你好,我女朋友在里面做检查。你能告诉我她的房间号吗?”
她看了一下记录,问道:“她叫什么名字?”
杰克环顾了一下候诊室,答道:“贝丝·福尔利。”
“杰克!”贝丝吃惊地喊道。她跑过去抱住他。他将她紧紧地拥在怀里,好像永远不想让他的天使飞走。“我太想你了,我昨天晚上就出发了。我再也无法忍受没有你的日子了。”他亲吻了她的双唇。
贝丝回答道:“我也想你。”
凯拥抱了一下杰克说:“我们回家吧。”
他们一回到家,杰克就抓着她的手,让她坐下来。
“贝丝,我爱你,一辈子。自从我在单杠上看到你的那天,你对我说要嫁给我开始,我就知道我爱上了你。没有你在我身边,我无法忍受独自度过哪怕一个夜晚。你使我的生命变得完整。贝丝,嫁给我,好吗?”
痛苦的眼泪涌出她蓝色的眼睛,她摇着头说:“我不能嫁给你,不能。”
母亲从床上起来,想去阻止她。但是贝丝关上了门。她躲在门后,希望有一天当她醒来后,癌症能够消失。她能和杰克共同享受幸福的生活,直到永远。但是,他怎么可能爱一个即将死于癌症的人呢?
一周过去了,一条条的信息,贝丝都没有回复。每次杰克打来电话都是母亲去接。杰克不知道怎么回事。他需要马上和贝丝谈谈,打电话已经解决不了任何问题。这无法填平他内心身处痛苦的峡谷。
他必须亲自见她,不论她喜欢与否。他要告诉她自己不在乎发生在她身上的任何事情。他仍然希望能与她在一起。他穿上了蓝色牛仔短裤,还有那件他最爱的白衬衣,她最喜欢看他穿这件衣服。然后,他上了车。
来到她的家门,他看了一下车道。她母亲的车不在。这次她必须要面对他,没法躲在母亲身后了。他敲了敲门。
“来啦,”贝丝说着,打开了门。她穿着一件红色的睡袍,上面绣着自己的名字。那是几年前,她祖母送给她的。
“请让我进去,我们需要谈谈。”
她不能粗鲁无礼。他们确实需要好好谈谈,谈谈他将如何看着自己惟一的爱人被癌症夺走。让他如何接受?她把门开大些,他慢慢走了进来。
“我不知道你为什么不和我谈。我不知道为什么我们不能在一起。难道你不知道我有多爱你吗?”他失落地把手插进棕色的头发里,继续说道:“你可以告诉我任何你要说的事情。我今天在这里,明天,永远都在这里。你是知道的。但是,现在出了什么问题?”
他轻轻地抱着她坐在沙发上。那一刻,她所有的恐惧、痛苦都消失了。世界上任何事情都无所谓,只要他们能够永远在一起。一行眼泪悄悄地从她的右脸颊上滴落,落在杰克的肩上。
她擦干泪水,说道:“我爱你,但这正是我让你离开我的原因。”杰克不愿意看到她如此消沉。她是一个意志坚强的人。她从未像现在这样失落,这使他产生了一种不祥的感觉。
“让我离开?天哪,到底为什么?”杰克更紧地拥着她,在她的脸颊上轻轻地吻了一下。
“我得了乳癌,我也是在几周前才知道。我不想嫁给你,因为我不想让你痛苦……”
他用男人最甜蜜的热吻打断了她的话。她所有的疑虑和恐惧像风一样慢慢散去。所有的一切都恢复了正常,他们又找回了曾经以为已经失去的爱情。
他们将永远生活在爱的港湾。

你要总是告诉自己没有什么事不能克服的。带着这样的决心,成功必然在道路的尽头等着你。下面是读文网小编为大家带来英语经典美文:Success in Life,希望大家喜欢!
Success means different things for different people. Some may equate it with fame, some with wealth and still some with accomplishments. For me, it means fulfilling one's dreams. Whatever your dreams are, you have a goal there and then focus all your attention on it. Dreams bring you hope and happiness. In the process of struggling for it, you cry, sweat, complain or even curse, but the joy of harvesting makes you forget all the pains and troubles you have gone through. So an old proverb says that the sweetest fruit is one that has undergone the bitterest ordeal.
成功对不同的人意味着不同的事情。对有些人来说,成功可能等同于名气;对有些人来说,成功意味着财富;对有些人来说,成功意味着有所成就。对我来说,成功意味着实现自己的梦想。无论你的梦想是什么,你至少有一个目标,然后把所有的精力都集中在上面。梦想会给你带来希望和幸福。在为梦想奋斗过程中,会有泪水,汗水,抱怨,甚至诅咒,但收获的喜悦让你忘掉所有的痛苦以及你所经历的困难。因此,一个古老的谚语说:所以一句老话说最甜蜜的果实是在最艰苦的奋斗后得来的。
There are several keys to success. First, your goal must be practical and practicable. If you set your goal too high, chances are that you will never attain it. Next, you have to make a plan of doing it. You can take some steps to realize it. Since the process is quite tough, you need to be diligent, patient and persevering. Even if you meet with some difficulties or frustrations, just take them in your stride. You can always tell yourself that there is nothing insurmountable. With this will and determination, success is sure to wait for you at the end of the tunnel!
这里有一些成功的秘诀。首先,你的目标必须现实可行。如果你制定的目标太高,你也许会永远无法达到。再者,又必须为之制定计划。你可以分步骤地实现他。因为过程将是艰苦的,你必须勤奋,耐心,坚持不懈。即使你遇见了困难与挫折,也要将之克服。你要总是告诉自己没有什么事不能克服的。带着这样的决心,成功必然在道路的尽头等着你。

下面是读文网小编为大家带来金融英语阅读:China’s wealthy no longer putting on Ritz,欢迎大家阅读!
On a quiet afternoon this week, one female shopper was browsing through pricey handbags in Beijing’s largely empty Shin Kong luxury mall. 最近一个静静的午后,一位女顾客在空荡荡的北京新光天地豪华购物中心浏览高价手袋。
“I buy all sorts of brands — Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada, Gucci,” said the financial consultant. “Now the price of luxury products in China is much better than before but mostly, I buy them when I go abroad every year.” “我买各种品牌,路易威登(LV)、香奈儿(Chanel)、Prada、Gucci,”这位财务顾问说道,“现在国内奢侈品的价格比过去便宜多了,但我大多是在每年去国外时购买。”
She may be willing to splash out on big brand names at home and abroad, but Chinese shoppers like her are becoming scarcer. The effects of a government crackdown on expensive gift-giving and the deceleration in the economy are being compounded by changing consumer tastes. 她可能愿意拿出大笔钱在国内外购买大牌奢侈品,但像她这样的中国消费者正变得更加难找。政府对赠送昂贵礼品的打击以及经济增速放缓的影响,正与消费者品味改变交织在一起。
Luxury companies are also suffering from heady expansion based on what a report this week, from US think-tank the Demand Institute and its parent institution, the Conference Board, described as “overly optimistic growth and consumption projections” that have “misled foreign investors”. 奢侈品公司还尝到迅猛扩张的苦果,美国智库"需求研究所"(Demand Institute)及其上级机构“世界大型企业联合会”(Conference Board)最近的一份报告称,这种扩张基于“误导外国投资者”的“过于乐观的增长和消费预测”。
Luxury spending in mainland China fell last year for the first time, according to Bain & Co, to roughly ¢15bn. The consultancy expects it to contract a further 2 per cent at constant currency rates, steeper than last year’s 1 per cent decline. 根据贝恩(Bain & Co)的数据,去年,中国内地奢侈品支出首次下滑,为150亿欧元左右。该咨询公司预测,按不变汇率计算,今年将进一步下滑2%,降幅大于去年的1%。
That is a sharp reversal of a decade of remarkable growth, when Chinese luxury spending, at home and abroad, leapt tenfold — from 3 per cent of global luxury spending in 2004 to 30 per cent last year, according to Exane BNP Paribas.
Without its main motor for growth, it is no longer a life of luxury for the world’s ¢250bn industry, which is having to work harder to adjust to the complexities of a more mature and fragmenting market. 那是对10年大幅增长的急剧逆转。根据法国巴黎银行证券部(Exane BNP Paribas)的数据,过去10年中国人在国内外的奢侈品支出跃增10倍,从2004年占全球奢侈品支出3%,升至去年的30%。
Luca Solca, analyst at Exane BNP Paribas, says the Chinese market “hasn’t been great for anyone recently, but Prada and Burberry seem to be under greater pressure from China than their peers”. 没有了主要增长推动力,2500亿欧元的全球奢侈品行业日子不再好过,该行业不得不加倍努力,以适应一个更成熟更分化的市场的复杂性。
Burberry warned in October that sales had been dented by an “increasingly challenging environment for luxury, particularly Chinese customers”. 巴黎银行证券部分析师卢卡?索尔卡(Luca Solca)表示,中国市场“近期的表现对任何品牌而言都不怎么好,但Prada和博柏利(Burberry)在中国面临的压力似乎超过业内同行。”
Many of China’s wealthiest spenders have had their fill of the big names and are looking for something different, say analysts. Other, more price-conscious consumers, are buying online. Meanwhile, more Chinese citizens are travelling abroad, where they can see that prices are often 30 per cent cheaper abroad than at home. 今年10月,博柏利警告称,“越来越具挑战性的奢侈品环境,尤其是中国顾客”影响了该公司销量。
The devaluation of the renminbi in August reduced the price gap with Europe, though some luxury brands — notably Chanel — had already tried to address the problem by standardising prices on some of its bags worldwide. 分析师们表示,对很多中国富豪来说,该买的大品牌都买了,他们正在寻找不同的东西。对价格更敏感的其他消费者正在网上购物。与此同时,更多的中国公民到海外旅游,他们发现国外的价格往往比国内低出30%。
As Angelica Cheung, editor-in-chief of Vogue China, says: “The market has changed so much in the past 12 months, not only because of the economy but also because of technology and travel. The companies haven’t moved as quickly.” 8月的人民币贬值缩窄了与欧洲的价格差距,尽管一些奢侈品牌(特别是香奈儿)此前已试图通过对部分手袋实行全球统一价来解决这个问题。
But luxury companies will have to move fast because their expectations of cohorts of new spenders from an emerging middle class are too bullish, as highlighted by the Demand Institute. “Most Chinese citizens have a long way to go before entering the middle class,” it said. 正如《Vogue》中国版总编张宇(Angelica Cheung)所言:“过去12个月里,市场改变了很多,其原因不仅仅在于经济,还在于科技和旅游。相关企业未能跟上。”
Louise Keely, a co-author of its report, described as a “myth” the expectation of reaping benefits by opening luxury emporia in a host of smaller cities. 但奢侈品公司将必须快速拿出对策,因为他们对于不断壮大的中产阶层带来大批新顾客的预期过于乐观。正如“需求研究所”所指出的:“多数中国公民在跻身于中产阶层之前还有很长一段路要走。”
Luxury companies were attracted by the cheap rents on offer from local mayors anxious to boast a shiny new mall and by the big populations of even tertiary cities. But these consumers do not necessarily have the money for a Gucci or Louis Vuitton handbag.
As a result of this rapid expansion, China has more luxury stores than any other country in the world, outpacing the US by a wide margin, according to Bernstein Research, and nearing saturation. “需求研究所”报告作者之一路易丝?基莉(Louise Keely)表示,通过在大批中小城市开设奢侈品购物中心来获益的指望是一个“神话”。
“Quietly brands have stopped opening new stores,” says Torsten Stocker, Hong Kong-based partner at consulting group AT Kearney. 近几年,奢侈品公司被地方政府提供的廉价租金以及二三线城市的庞大人口数量所吸引;地方政府官员急于用崭新的光彩夺目的购物中心来炫耀自己的政绩。但那里的消费者不一定有钱购买Gucci或路易威登手袋。
LVMH, the world’s biggest luxury goods group by sales, has closed three Louis Vuitton shops in China, including the brand’s first outlet in the southern city of Guangzhou, following closures in Harbin and Urumqi. 这种快速扩张的结果是,中国的奢侈品门店数量超过全球其他任何国家,伯恩斯坦研究公司(Bernstein Research)的数据显示,其数量大大超过美国,并正在接近饱和。
Jean-Jacques Guiony, the French company’s finance director, had said last month that the group might close some shops in second-tier cities. “China, Hong Kong and Macau are suffering,” he said. Sales of luxury goods are expected to contract 25 per cent in Hong Kong this year, according to Bain. 咨询机构科尔尼(A.T. Kearney)驻香港合伙人唐仕敦(Torsten Stocker)表示:“一些大品牌正悄悄叫停开张新门店的计划。”
The UK’s Burberry and Coach of the US have scaled back in Hong Kong, where rents are rising but the number of Chinese visitors is falling. 全球销售额最大的奢侈品集团LVMH已关闭其在中国的3家路易威登门店,包括该品牌在南方城市广州的首家门店,以及哈尔滨和乌鲁木齐的门店。
Beneficiaries of this shift include North Face, an outdoor brand, and sports companies such as Nike and Adidas, reflecting a growing emphasis on healthier lifestyles. 今年10月,这家法国公司的财务总监让-雅克?盖恩伊(Jean-Jacques Guiony)表示,集团可能关闭其在中国二线城市的一些门店。他表示:“中国内地、香港和澳门正出现困境。”根据贝恩的数据,预计今年香港奢侈品销售额将收缩25%。
Some brands are going against the trend with new openings. Hermès, a relatively late entrant to the Chinese market, has expanded slowly, partly because of production constraints. It opened two new shops last year, making a total of 23, which is less than half the size of the network of Kering’s Gucci or Louis Vuitton. 英国的博柏利和美国的蔻驰(Coach)均缩减了香港的业务,在这里,租金在上涨,但中国内地游客数量却在减少。
As Christopher Bailey, Burberry chief executive, said last month: “The fundamentals of the luxury industry are changing. Growth in Chinese luxury spending is moderating.” 这种转变的受益者包括户外品牌North Face以及耐克(Nike)和阿迪达斯(Adidas)等运动品牌,这反映出人们越来越注重更健康的生活方式。
Those fundamentals include a newfound confidence among Chinese consumers that makes them less willing to accept what western luxury brands say they should buy. 一些品牌正逆势开店。进入中国市场相对较晚的爱马仕(Hermès)一直扩张缓慢,部分原因是产量限制。该品牌去年在中国新开两家门店,门店总量达到23家,不到开云集团(Kering)旗下的Gucci或路易威登门店数量的一半。
“There been a real shift over the past two years in consumer perception about what the right product to buy should be,” says Benjamin Cavender of China Market Research in Shanghai, who says that these consumers perceive big brands as catering to the nouveau riche. 正如博柏利首席执行官克里斯托弗?贝利(Christopher Bailey)在10月所说过的:“奢侈品行业的基本面因素正在变化。中国人的奢侈品支出增速正在放缓。”
“It used to be about making a safe big brand purchase to show off. That’s shifted towards making purchases depending on the individual’s interests and lifestyle,” he adds. 这些基本面因素包括中国消费者找到了新的自信,不再那么愿意接受西方奢侈品牌传递的有关他们该买什么的信息。
Consumers also want to differentiate themselves by spending money on experiences, such as travel, fine dining and the home, instead of buying another designer product, says Emmanuel Hemmerle, managing partner at Emmanuel Hemmerle, a leadership consultancy.
He adds that seven years ago, the Michelin-starred Jean Georges restaurant in Shanghai “had a clientele which was 80 per cent French; now it’s 80 per cent Chinese”. 位于上海的中国市场研究集团(China Market Research Group)的本杰明?卡文德尔(Benjamin Cavender)表示:“过去两年,消费者对于自己购买哪些产品才合适的观念真的发生了变化。”他表示,这些消费者认为大品牌迎合了暴发户的需求。
Consumers are also showing more of an interest in homegrown brands, he says, which could favour a nascent domestic luxury industry. “People are going back to their roots because of a pride and a security in their identity.” 他补充称:“过去,人们购买保险的大品牌产品是为了炫富。如今则转向根据个人兴趣和生活方式购买。”
Luxury goods companies are reacting to these changes. Coach, the US leather goods group, is reaping the benefits within China of being more affordable than many of its upscale competitors, but says that spending by Chinese tourists is also growing. 埃曼努埃尔?海默尔埃梅莱(Emmanuel Hemmerle)是以他自己的姓名命名的领导力咨询公司的管理合伙人。他表示,消费者还希望通过把钱花在体验方面(例如旅游、美食和家居)来体现自己的不同,而不是购买另一款设计师产品。
“The Chinese tourist is an increasingly large part of our business globally — notably in Japan and Europe. We are staffing into this trend, increasing the number of Mandarin speaking store associates in these geographies,” it says. 他补充称,7年前,上海的米其林(Michelin)三星餐厅Jean Georges “80%的客人是法国人;如今80%是中国人”。
The UK’s Burberry is focusing on digital marketing and shifting away from stores, cutting the number of retail staff in Hong Kong by 25 per cent. “In Hong Kong, we’re switching our investment from iconic out-of-home sites that target tourists, to emails, events and media more relevant to the local customer,” said Mr Bailey this month. 他表示,消费者还显示出更多的对本土品牌的兴趣,这可能有利于新兴的国内奢侈品行业。“出于对自身身份认同的自豪和安全感,人们正追本溯源。”
The upside of shutting underperforming stores, and focusing on the more dynamic locations, is that China could become a more profitable country for luxury companies. 奢侈品公司正对这些变化做出反应。美国皮革制品集团蔻驰在中国正因为产品价格较很多高端竞争对手更亲民而受益,但该集团表示,中国游客的支出也在增加。
Erwan Rambourg, luxury goods analyst at HSBC in Hong Kong, says: “Staff costs and rents remain reasonable relative to the rest of the world. We think profit margins will improve because the brands already have enough shops, so can rein in the capex for retail expansion that has weighed on profit margins.” 该集团表示:“中国游客对我们全球业务的贡献越来越大,特别是在日本和欧洲。我们正迎合这种趋势,在这些地区增加说普通话店员的数量。”
He says sales will recover but not overnight. It will take time for import taxes and consumption taxes to be lowered, which would reduce the gap between prices in China compared with other countries. 英国的博柏利正聚焦于数字营销并转向门店以外,将香港零售员工的数量减少25%。贝利最近表示:“在香港,我们正把投资从瞄准游客的标志性户外广告转向与当地顾客更相关的电邮、活动和媒体。”
There are some tantalising signs of improvement. Burberry said sales were picking up in China relative to its last quarter. Cartier-owner, Richemont said this month that growth had resumed in mainland China, lifted by retail sales through its own boutiques. 关闭业绩不佳的门店、专注于更具活力的经营地点的好处在于,对奢侈品集团而言,中国有望成为一个更加利润丰厚的市场。
Gary Saage, finance director of the Swiss group, last month told analysts that in Hong Kong “it’s getting a little less worse?.?.?.?but you know, I’m not going to be popping champagne on that”. 汇丰(HSBC)驻香港奢侈品分析师埃尔文?朗堡(Erwan Rambourg)表示:“相对于全球其他地区,中国的员工成本和租金仍相对合理。我们认为,利润率将改善,因为各品牌已经拥有足够多的门店,能够压缩资本支出,无需进行拖累利润率的零售扩张。”
Broadened horizons: Chinese spending overseas 他表示,销售额将复苏,但不会一蹴而就。降低进口税和消费税(这将缩窄中国与其他国家之间的价格差距)需要时间。
Chinese tourism has taken off spectacularly in recent years, even though only 6 per cent of the population has a passport. Almost 120m Chinese travelled abroad last year, more than double the number five years ago. 目前有一些令人心动的改善迹象。博柏利表示,在华销售额较上一季度出现起色。卡地亚(Cartier)所有者瑞士历峰集团(Richemont)上月表示,受专卖店零售销售的提振,中国业务已恢复增长。
These tourists are hugely important for the luxury goods industry because two-thirds of the ¢65bn of Chinese luxury spending last year took place outside China, some of it by middleman used by consumers to bypass the high taxes on luxury imports that make it cheaper to buy abroad. 这家瑞士集团的财务总监加里?萨吉(Gary Saage)在10月告诉分析师,在香港,“情况变得不那么糟糕了……但你们知道,我们不会为此开香槟庆祝”。
Wealthy travellers are tightening their purse strings, however. Per capita spending on shopping fell 8 per cent in 2014, year on year, according to FT Confidential Research, a Financial Times’ investment research service, because of the economic slowdown and the clampdown on gift-giving. 拓宽视角:中国人海外支出
Total spending increased, however, because the number of overseas trips grew 20 per cent. 近年中国旅游业的发展引人注目,即使全国仅有6%的人口持有护照。去年,赴海外旅游的中国游客达到近1.2亿人次,是5年前的两倍多。
Yet the traditional destinations of Hong Kong for shopping and Macau for gambling, are not reaping the benefits of this rise because increasingly Chinese tourists prefer to travel to new destinations. 这些游客对于奢侈品行业极其重要,因为中国人去年650亿欧元的奢侈品支出中,有三分之二发生在中国境外,其中一部分源自消费者利用中间人代购,绕过高额奢侈品进口税,后者使奢侈品在海外购买更便宜。
Hong Kong is also suffering from unfavourable exchange rates and the aftermath of last year’s political protests that have left many Chinese feeling unwelcome. 然而,富有的游客正收紧钱包。根据英国《金融时报》旗下的投资研究服务部门“投资参考”(FT Confidential Research)的数据,2014年,人均购物支出同比下降8%,原因是经济放缓和政府对礼品馈赠的打击。
South Korea and Japan are instead growing in popularity. A quarter of Chinese tourists chose South Korea for their first trip this year — double the number last year, according to FT Confidential. 不过,整体支出增加,因为海外旅行人次增长20%。
France tops the list of destinations, though it is too soon to say whether last week’s terrorist attacks will deter visitors. 然而。传统的购物目的地香港和赌博目的地澳门没有从中获利,因为越来越多的中国内地游客更青睐新的目的地。
The government in Beijing is trying to encourage shoppers to spend at home rather than abroad, through the development of domestic duty-free shopping zones, such as on Hainan island in the south. 香港还受到不利汇率以及去年让很多内地人感到不受欢迎的政治抗议余波的影响。
Erwan Rambourg, analyst at HSBC, says: “We think that luxury sales in China will recover, thanks to lowered taxes and more domestic duty free outlets that will make purchasing abroad less compelling.” 韩国和日本正越来越受欢迎。根据“投资参考”的数据,今年有四分之一的中国游客把韩国作为首个出境游目的地,是去年人数的两倍。
Scheherazade Daneshkhu in London, Ralph Atkins in Zurich, Adam Thomson in Paris, Rachel Sanderson in Milan, Patti Waldmeir in Shanghai, Lindsay Whipp in Chicago, Jamil Anderlini, Wan Li and Christian Shepherd in Beijing 法国列在中国出境游目的地名单的首位,现在就断言最近的恐怖主义袭击会不会吓退游客还为时尚早。
中国政府正努力发展国内的免税购物区,例如南方的海南岛,鼓励消费者在国内支出。
汇丰分析师埃尔文·朗堡表示:“我们认为,中国的奢侈品销售将复苏,因为税收下调以及国内更多的免税门店将让出国购物的吸引力下降。”

春天是一道美丽的风景线,是一个生机勃勃的季节,是一个五彩斑斓的世界。下面读文网小编为大家带来有关spring英语作文带翻译,欢迎大家学习!
Spring is coming, everywhere filled with spring in the air, that is how a breath!
The day before yesterday night, the little spring rain began to fall, gently, can't hear the sound of the rain, like a wet smoke, gently moistens the earth. The rain stopped in the morning, the sun came out, and a fine. The whole world like a freshly washed zao, especially relaxed, the air was fresh, breath, my sweetie, like drink the honey. Oh, this is the breath of spring, it is very sweet.
Walk on the road home, I suddenly realized that the road wet soil, several strains of flowers are just come up to a week star who also didn't aware of the tender small bud! They strut his belly and delicate body, swing gently with the wind of spring, it's so cute! They were, after a spring rain, wash clean, emitting a kind of unique flowers fresh fragrance! Oh, this is the breath of spring, it is pure and fresh.
Beside the house, the first batch of small unknown flowers open. Myriads of crowded together, eyeful is the colour of them. Some flowers from the branches, show tender bud; Some flowers have a lot of time; Some flowers in bud, it seems that is about to burst. So many flower, a flower with a gesture. Look at this flower, very beautiful; Look at that one, also is very beautiful. A breeze blowing, the primrose, little flower emitting fragrance of the breath, in to the sight at once. Ah, this is the breath of spring, is fragrant.
In the air, everywhere filled with the smell of spring! It is very sweet, pure and fresh, fragrant breath!
春天来了,到处弥漫着春天的气息,那是怎样的一种气息啊!
前天夜里,下起了小小春雨,轻轻的,听不见雨的响声,像一种湿漉漉的烟雾,轻柔地滋润着大地。早晨雨停了,太阳出来了,一片晴朗。整个世界像刚洗过澡似的,特别清爽,空气十分新鲜,呼吸一口,甜丝丝的,像喝了蜜一样。噢,这就是春天的气息,是甜甜的。
走在回家的道路上,我突然发现路边湿润的泥土中,几株小花正刚刚冒出一星星儿谁也没觉察到的嫩嫩的小芽!它们昂首挺胸地挺着自己娇嫩的身体,随着春天的风儿轻轻摆动,真是太可爱了!一场春雨过后,它们被洗刷得干干净净,散发出一种花儿特有的清新的芳香!哦,这就是春天的气息,是清新的。
家旁边,第一批小小的不知名的小花开了。它们密密麻麻地挤在一起,满眼都是它们的色彩。有的花从枝丫中抽出,露出柔弱的花蕊来;有的花却已经开放不少时间了;有的花含苞欲放,看起来马上要胀破似的。这么多的小花,一朵有一朵的姿势。看看这一朵,很美;看看那一朵,也很美。一阵微风吹来,迎春花那小小的花蕊里散发出的芬芳的气息,立刻扑鼻而来。啊,这就是春天的气息,是芬芳的。
空气中,到处弥漫着春天的气味!那是甜甜的、清新的、芬芳的气息!

随着社会的发展,我们的生活也在不断地发生着变化,影响着我们生活的点点滴滴。下面读文网小编为大家带来changes in life英语作文带翻译,欢迎大家学习!
Over the past twenty years or so, great changes have taken place in our life. Take my family for example. My parents contacted others mainly by sending them letters in the past. But now we Call long distance at home. And once my parents listened to the radio for news and other information. But now we get the news by watching TV. Another big change is in my living conditions. When they got married about twenty years ago, my parents lived in a small room crowded with fiirniture. But now we have moved into a big new three-room apartment. In short, our life has become comfortable and convenient.
在过去的20年中,我们的生活发生了巨大的变化。 以我家为例。从前,我父母与其他人联系主要是通过书信,但现在我们可以在家打长途了。 以前我的父母都是听收音机来了解新闻和其他信息,但现在我们能观看电视新闻和其他节目了。另一个大的变化是居住条件方面。20年前我的父母结婚时,只居住在一间拥挤的小屋子里,但现在我们已经搬入一套三室一厅的套房里面。简言之,我们的生活变得舒适而方便。

想知道Unit4 What are you doing的英语教案要怎么做吗?下面读文网小编为大家带来Unit4 What are you doing英语教案,希望对大家有所帮助。
1.教学内容分析
在五个动词短语中,do the dishes是五(上)Unit 4要求四会的词组,read a book, cook dinner在五(上)中学过意思相同的两个短语read books和cook the meals,并且属于四会内容。draw pictures , answer the phone 在前几册中也出现过,总之,五个动词短语的前三个对学生来说比较简单。针对这种情况,我采用由易到难、由旧知识练习新句型的教学策略,以此来降低学生理解及表达的难度。
2.教学目标的确定
本节课是五年级下册第四单元的第一课时,五年级下册四、五、六单元的主要内容就是现在进行时,而本节课是学生学习现在进行时的第一节课,因此,对学生接受现在进行时的概念,理解现在进行时的用法显得尤为重要。 针对本节课的特殊情况,既学生第一次接触一种新时态:现在进行时,我确定了三个教学目标。
(1)通过具体而典型的情景,体会现在进行时的用法,能够运用句子What are you doing ? 询问别人正在做什么,并用 I'm ___ing . 这一陈述句来做答。
(2)初步认识现在分词的构成,能够听、说、读、写五个动词短语的 ing形式。
(3)通过说唱Let's chant部分的歌谣,巩固复习 Let's learn 部分的短语和句子。
3.教学重点、难点的确立
(1)本节的重点是掌握五个动词短语的-ing 形式,理解下一节课的主要句型 What are you doing ? 并能用 I am doing the dishes . 来作答。
(2)难点:a、如何引导学生感知、理解现在进行时所表达的含义。
b、动词- ing形式的读音,特别是加 -ing 之后的连读。这不单是本节课的难点,也是后三个单元的教学难点。培养学生流畅的连读,它需要一个过程,需要老师多做示范,逐步引导,充分感知。这不是一节课两节课就能达到的教学目标。
4.教具准备
乒乓球、乒乓球拍、玩具盘子及洗碗布、玩具锅及铲子、一本故事书、语文书、数学书、图画书、电话、词卡、四张图片、记者服、记者证、录音机和磁带。
二、教学过程
Step 1:Warm-up, TPR活动
T: Hello, boys and girls. This class I'll divide you into 4 groups. Group1.2. 3. 4.
T: Before class. Let's warm up. Please follow me. Do as I do.
1.复习动词:(边做动作边说)
eat/ drink/read/ write/ draw/ jump/ run/ swim/ fly(T: Wonderful! Let’s go on.)
2.复习词组:
set the table/ sweep the floor/ wash the clothes./do the dishes./cook the meals./clean the bedroom.
3.sing a song: 《I can help》. 投影出示歌词,老师做动作示范,师生一同演唱。
(设计思路: 在Warm-up 中通过TPR的形式回顾所学的动词,以旧带新,同时也为后面的新授、拓展做一简单的铺垫,目的就是从一开始就将学生带入动词的世界。歌曲《I can help 》中的歌词动作在课前有所熟悉,所以让学生边唱边做动作,进一步复习有关家务劳动的短语,这也是为后面通过Free talk引出do the dishes, cook dinner两个短语所做的铺垫。)
Step 2. Unit 4 What are you doing 的导入及板书。
1.T: Boys and girls. Here’s a ping-pong. Do you like playing ping-pong.(做动作)Please look at me. What am I doing now?(边托球边解释:现在,我正在干什么?)You can ask me: What are you doing?(拿词卡边领读边板书)
2.Ask me together. (师再次托球回答)I am playing ping-pong.(让两生试着托球,师拿词卡I’m ---ing领读、板书。)
3.T: From this class .We’ll learn Unit 4. What are doing?
(设计思路:这一环节即是课题的导入也是现在进行时用法的感知,针对本节课的难点,即如何引导学生感知、理解现在进行时所表达的含义。通过play ping-pong这一正在进行的动作,鼓励学生用What are you doing?来问老师,借此老师教学并板书课题,且初步熟悉其陈述句的表达法I am ___ing.)
Step 3.Presentation
1.Free talk 引出do the dishes.
T: Hello .What's your name? S1:(回答)
Nice to meet you.
By the way, can you do housework?
What can you do?
Great. You're helpful.
T: Hello. What can you do at home? S2:(回答)
Good boy/girl. You're helpful.
T: Boys and girls ,can you do housework? Ss: Yes.
T: You're helpful .Please guess what I can do at home. Look carefully.(师做动作,生猜。You can use the sentence:“Can you ---”)
T: Yes, I can do the dishes .Who can write the phrases?(师让一名学生上黑板写词组,写完后老师让学生稍等,然后自己边洗盘子边说:I am doing the dishes now. Please try.)
T: What are you doing?
S: I am doing the dishes.
(板书领读:do add-ing is pronounced /i□/--- doing.
再次板书:I am=I'm(领读,拿盘子准备传)
T: This time, Let's pass the dish one by one, and ask: What are you doing?
(领读3-4遍之后开始传,全体同学一起打着节奏问:What are you doing? 当老师说:Stop时,拿到盘子的同学站起来边洗盘子边说:“I am doing the dishes.”)
(设计思路:由Free talk 引出do the dishes ,由学生熟悉的词组入手,通过传盘子的游戏集体练习、重点突破主句型 What are you doing ?)
2. cook dinner
T:(与最后一名学生对话)You can do the dishes . Can you cook dinner?
S: 如果生回答 Yes, I can.老师就用 T: You’re helpful. Please do an action and say.
如果生回答No, I can’t 老师边做动作边启发鼓励学生T: You can’t? cook eggs, can you? What about noodles?
T:(边让生说cook dinner, 边做动作)师板书 cook dinner
T: It means: cook the meals.
Here’s a pot .Who can ask me with the sentence : (指标题)
T: I am cooking dinner .I am cooking fish. Mmm-Yummy. (板书-ing. Cook add ing is pronounced cooking画连读符号)
T: Now, please cook something and practise in pairs. You can cook eggs. noodle,. tomatoes, potatoes, green beans and so on.
T: Mm----Yummy. SA. What are you doing?
SA: I’m----.(让两名学生一组起来汇报)
(设计思路:当盘子传到最后一名学生,老师问:You can do the dishes . Can you cook dinner?自然引出cook dinner的教学,练习的形式是两人合作,边做动作边练习,在汇报时,老师以故事书作为奖励,并让学生坐下来耐心地一页一页的读,将read a book 引出)
3.read a book. [注意与read books的比较]
T: Wonderful. Please come here. This is for you.(把故事书奖励给学生) Please sit on the chair and read it. (师指正在读书的学生说)read a book . 板书并领读。
T:(师蹲下去问)What are you doing?
(引导学生试着加ing,并读出) Please add-ing and try to read it.
(师画连字符号)Who can help her? Wonderful. This is for you[发奖品]
T: I have many books here.
(师边说边走下去将书分给学生) Please read it! 引导学生用句型来问答
T: (师启发学生说出具体的书目)You’re reading a Chinese book.
(设计思路:当学生读到picture book时,老师用实物投影仪展示pictures,并且问学生 Can you draw pictures ?然后老师在黑板上画画示范,边画边说:I am drawing pictures .自然将 drawing pictures引出,接着让学生来画画,亲身体验现在正在进行的这一动作)
4.draw pictures
T: You’re reading a picture book. Let’s see. (老师在实物投影上展示,边翻书边说:pictures,
beautiful pictures.(板书pictures)Can you draw pictures.(师边说边画,然后板书、领读。)
T: Can you draw pictures? Let’s finish the picture together. Please draw one thing. You can draw a tree, a path, grass, flowers,an apple and so on .
(设计思路:学生边画边说句子,几位同学画完之后,老师对画做简单的评价,并适当给画添加一些东西,使之更加完美。)
5.answer the phone
T:(电话铃声响起)I’m sorry. Please wait a minute. Let me answer the phone.(老师拿起听筒)
Hello. It’s Miss Lu. I’m having English class. I’m very busy. Bye.
(放下电话教学词组answer the phone )
Practice:
A、做Hide and seek游戏,把电话藏起来,通过一名学生找电话,全班同学用高低声提示,巩固这一动词词组。当学生找到电话,电话铃声再次响起,让学生试着加ing并读出。
B、T: Next, practise in pairs. Use your books, like this.(老师把英语课本卷起,作为电话听筒,并出示下面的对话。)
A: Hello.
B: Hi. It's ________ . What are you doing?
A: I'm answering the phone. What are you doing?
B: I'm _________ (drawing pictures /doing the dishes /cooking dinner / reading a book )
(设计思路:老师接电话时说:Hello! It's Miss Lu.自然渗透打电话的日常用语,然后做Hide and seek 游戏,以此来练习这一短语。紧接着让学生将书卷起做为电话,出示对话提示,小组练习。借助这个短语即可以对前面的四个短语做一阶段性总结,又可渗透下节课 Let's talk的内容。)
Step 4 Practise
1.Listen to the tape. Listen, point and repeat.
2.Look at the blackboard and read after me .(do---doing---doing the dishes)
3.T:(师生分工读)Ss: What are you doing? What are you doing?
T: I’m doing the dishes. (教师边做动作边说)What are you doing?
4.Let’s chant.(投影出示P44的Let’s chant.边说边做)
5.Play a guessing game.
一名学生从词卡中挑出一张出示给全班同学,另一名学生背对这位同学,猜一猜自己正在干什么,全班同学问:What are you doing ?猜的同学边做动作边用I'm _ing来回答。
(设计思路:听录音之后看板书领读, 领读过程中,通过动词原形与现在分词的对比,使学生进一步理解现在分词的构成,紧接着师生分工读,自然引出Let's chant的内容,在Let's chant之后,我设计了一个猜单词的游戏,这是一个常规性的游戏,无多少技巧隐含其中,时间够了就做,不够就略去,这是机动处理的部分。)
Step 5 Consolidation and extension
T: Boys and girls, spring is here.Group1 is going to do housework..Group2 is going to have a picnic . Group3 is going to have a sports meeting. Group4 is staying in the classroom.(教师边说边将卡片发下去。)
1.首先从课前发下去的词卡 比如 play___ the piano 中挑选动词词组且加ing,如并试着读出,然后将词组贴在对应的图画下面。
2.学生发现问题,即个别单词的后面画有四条小横线,swim_ _ _ _, run_ _ _ _, set_ _ _ _, 老师集中讲解问题。
3.小组内练习,利用句型What are you doing? I'm _____ing.充分讨论。
4.记者采访做现场报道。先是老师穿上记者服、戴上记者证访问学生,然后由学生去采访。
