Well, Amy Chua joins us now. Good morning, Amy!Amy:Hostess:Good morning!I wanna again go to the details of your book
166、in just a moment, but we have tomention that youve been getting a lot of comments, we should say, about yourbook and a lot of them, not very positive. Were you anticipating, you know, howcontroversial this book would be?Amy:I knew it would be controversial but this has been, er. much more intense. I
167、 meanI think part of the problems is people dont realize its not a parenting book; ifs justmy story including my mistakes. Its a memoir. I was raised by Chinese parentswho were very strict but also super loving and supportive. To this day, I adore them,I feel like I owe them everything and they9re m
168、y idols, you know, even thoughtheyre very tough. I mean my dad. my parents came over, and they were so poorwhen they first got here that they couldnt afford heat their first two winters inBoston and have to wear blanket around to keep warm. When my mum gotpregnant with my second sister, they didnt h
169、ave the money to pay for the hospitaland they borrowed money from a near stranger. So when my sisters and I weregrowing up, three of us, yeah, there were these harsh rules: no playdates; A minusis not a great grade, er, chores, respect. But I soil of felt like it was.and there aresome harsh words, y
170、ou know. But I always knew there was love there and I felt thatthey earned the right to demand that of me.Hostess: They were doing it for your own good.

How do you react tothose c
172、omments?Amy: Well, theyre pretty. they are pretty painful. Maybe not a lot of people. Iunderstand how people held their reaction. Theyre on the outside. They dont see.And they also. actually dont realize that Im not saying that this is superior. Infact, the whole book is actually about how things di

286、ing on French favorites. After looking at bones is the catacombs, well see how the FrenchRevolution helped create this grant city.The Seine River splits the city into the Right Bank and the Left Bank. Its two islands markthe center of the old town. Most of the essential sights lie near the Notre Dam
287、e, between the EiffelTower, the Latin Quarters, and Montmartre, the citys highest point.The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the FrenchRevolution and show off at a worlds fair. It was a muscular symbol of the Industrial Age. To ageneration hooked on technology, i
288、t was the marvel of its day, trumpeting progress and mansingenuity. This 900-foot-tall tower has three observation levels: the higher you go the more youpay. For me the middle level is plenty high. Thousands of iron bars and millions of rivets, allassembled in just over 2 years. Today, it stands tal
289、l, an exclamation point, symbolizing the proud,independent spirit of the French. The Trocadero Square, across the river, is the place to view thetower and to check out a colorful scene.Parisians own their city. In fact, twice a week streets are closed and thousands turn out to rollthrough the city i
290、n an exuberant celebration of life.Paris was bom centuries before Christ right here on the lie de la Cite, an island in the middleof the Seine River. The Romans conquered the local fishing tribe and set up camp. Today theNotre-Dame Cathedral marks the place where a Roman temple once stood. The citys
291、 first bishop,St. Dennis, holds his head in his hands. When Christianity began making converts here, theRomans beheaded him. But, according to legend, Dennis just picked up his head and kept ongoing. Inspired by this miracle, Christianity flourished and the temple was replaced by a church.Imagine th
292、e faith of people who built this breaking ground in 1163 on a building which wouldntbe finished for 200 years. Gothic architects incorporated the latest technology, flying buttresses tosupport the heavy rooftop. Its ghoulish gargoyles multi-task: they serve as fancy rain spouts andscare away the evi
293、l spirits. The church is dedicated to “our lady“ or Notre Dame. Mary cradles thebaby Jesus; the rose window provides a majestic halo. The Virgin Mary was highly reveredthroughout the Middle Ages. The faithful petitioned her in times of trouble to gain both comfortand, through her intervention, Gods
294、mercy. As worshippers headed for Mass, theyd walk under arelief of Judgment Day. Christ sits on his throne. The trumpet sounds. All are judged: peasants,knights, nobles, royals, even bishops. An angel weights cute little souls while cheating demonsyank on the scales. The saved stand happily at Chris

318、rated over thecenturies by great artists.The Christmas story begins with the Annunciation: an angel, sent from God with a messagefor a young woman, whose name was Mary. And the angel said, “Fear not, for thou shall bringforth a son and you will name him Jesus. And he shall be called the son of the M
319、ost High and hiskingdom will have no end. And it came to pass that there went out a decree from CaesarAugustus that all the world should be taxed. And Joseph, a carpenter from Nazareth, went toBethlehem to be taxed with Mary who was expecting a child. While they were there, she broughtforth her firs
320、tborn son, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room in the inn. In thatregion there were shepherds, keeping watch over their flocks by night. An angel of the Lord cameto them and said, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy. For unto you is bornon this day in the cit
321、y of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And suddenly there was amultitude of angels: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace and good will to all., Andthe shepherd said, “Let us go to Bethlehem ,where they found Mary, and Joseph, and the babylying in a manger. Now after Jesus was bom,
322、there also came Wise Men. And a glorious star,which they saw in the east, went before them. Guiding them, it stood over where the child was.The wise men knelt down and worshipped the child, giving him gifts, gold, frankincense, andmyrrh. The long awaited Messiah had arrived.This is the story that Ch
323、ristians have celebrated through the ages. We dont really know onwhich day Jesus was born. Historians argue it was likely in spring since shepherds were Tendingtheir flocks. But, in the 4th century, a pope declared December 25 to be the official birthday ofJesus. Why that day? Well, Christianity was
324、 newly legal in the Roman Empire and the clever popefigured it would be smart if the biggest Christian festival coincided with the biggest pagan one,winter solstice. And throughout the land, people, Christians celebrating the birth of the son andpagans celebrating the return of the sun, have been re

Ale Gore2. Man3. Girl4. Sunbeam5. Greenhouse gases (Gs)Ale Gore: I show this because I wanna tell you a story a
339、bout two teachers I had. One that Ididnt like that much, the other who is a real hero to me. I had a grade schoolteacher who taught geography by pulling a map of the world down in front of theblackboard. I had a classmate in the sixth grade who raised his hand and he pointedto the outline of the eas
340、t coast of South America and he pointed to the west coast ofAfrica and he asked, Did they ever fit together?1 And the teacher said, Of coursenot. Thats the most ridiculous thing Ive ever heard.1 That student went on tobecome a drug addict and a neer-do-well. The teacher went on to become scienceadvi
341、sor in the current administration.But, you know, the teacher was actually reflecting the conclusion of the scientificestablishment of that time. Continents are so big, obviously they dont move. But,actually, as we now know, they did move. They moved apart from one another. Butat one time they did, i
342、n fact, fit together. But that assumption was a problem. Itreflected the well-known wisdom that what gets us into trouble is not what we dontknow, it*s what we know for sure that just aint so.This is actually an important point, believe it or not, because there is another suchassumption that a lot o
343、f people have in their minds right now about global warmingthat just aint so. The assumption is something like this. The Earth is so big we cantpossibly have any lasting harmful impact on the Earth*s environment. And maybethat was true at one time, but its not anymore. And one of the reasons ifs not
344、 trueanymore is that the most vulnerable part of the Earths ecological system is theatmosphere. Vulnerable because its so thin. My friend, the late Carl Sagan, used tosay, uIf you had a big globe with a coat of varnish on it, the thickness of thatvarnish relative to that globe is pretty much the sam
345、e as the thickness of the Earthsatmosphere compared to the Earth itself.1 And its thin enough that we are capableof changing its composition. That brings up the basic science of global warming.And Im not gonna spend a lot of time on this because you know it well. The sunsradiation comes in the form
346、of light waves and that heats up the Earth. And thensome of the radiation that is absorbed and warms the Earth is reradiated back intospace in the form of infrared radiation. And some of the outgoing infrared radiationis trapped by this layer of atmosphere and held inside the atmosphere. And thats a
347、good thing because it keeps the temperature of the Earth within certain boundaries,keeps it relatively constant and livable. But the problem is this thin layer ofatmosphere is being thickened by all of the global warming pollution thats beingput up there. And what that does is it thickens this layer
348、 of atmosphere, more of theoutgoing infrared is trapped. And so the atmosphere heats up worldwide. That*sglobal warming. Now, thats the traditional explanation. Heres what I think is abetter explanation.Man:YouYe probably wondering why your ice cream went away.Well, Susie, the culprit isnt foreigner
349、s. Its global warming.Girl:Global.Man:Yeah.Meet Mr. Sunbeam. He comes all the way from the sun to visit Earth.Sunbeam:Hello, Earth. Just popping in to brighten your day.And now Fil be on my way.Gs:Not so fast, Sunbeam.WeYe greenhouse gases. You aint going nowhere.Sunbeam:Oh, God, it hurts.Man:Pretty
350、 soon, Earth is chock-full of Sunbeams.Their rotting corpses heating our atmosphere.Girl:How do we get rid of the greenhouse gases?Man:Fortunately, our handsomest politicians came up with a cheap, last-minute way tocombat global warming. Ever since 2063, we simply drop a giant ice cube into theocean
351、 every now and then.Girl:Just like Daddy puts in his drink every morning. And then he gets mad.Man:Of course, since the greenhouse gases are still building up, it takes more and moreice each time. Thus, solving the problem once and fbr all.Girl:But.Man:Once and for all!Episode 2: An Inconvenient Tru

Theyre right on thecutting edge.Ale Gore:Give me some sense of the numbers of new coal fire generating plants.Scientist:Well, I
354、have to say that the number is enormous because it*s so profitable.Ale Gore:This issue is really the same for China as it is for the US.We are both using old technologies that are dirty and polluting.Ale Gore:.more flooding and more drought and stronger storms is going up, and globalwarming is impli
355、cated in the pattern.Journalist:And if you were to give some suggestions to everybody here about, like, what wecan do for the situation now.Ale Gore:Separating the truth from the fiction and the accurate connections from themisunderstandings is part of what you learn here. But when the warnings area
356、ccurate and based on sound science, then we as human beings, whatever countiywe live in, have to find a way to make sure that the warnings are heard andresponded to.Ale Gore:We both have a hard time shaking loose the familiar patterns that weve relied on inthe past. We both face completely unaccepta
357、ble consequences.Ale Gore: And there are three factors that are causing this collision, and the first is population.When my generation, the baby boom generation, was born after World War II, thepopulation had just crossed the two billion mark. Now, Fm in my 50s, and it*salready gone to almost six an
358、d a half billion. And if I reach the demographicexpectation for the baby boomers, itll go over nine billion. So if it takes 10,000generations to reach two billion and then in one human lifetime, ours, it goes fromtwo billion to nine billion, something profoundly different is going on right now.Were
359、putting more pressure on the Earth. Most of its in the poorer nations of theworld. This puts pressure on food demand. It puts pressure on water demand. Itputs pressure on vulnerable natural resources, and this pressures one of the reasonswhy we have seen all the devastation of the forest, not only t
360、ropical, but elsewhere.It is a political issue.Episode 3: Obamas Earth Day Message (Speech)41 years ago, in the city of Cleveland, people watched in horror as the Cuyahoga Riverchoked with debris and covered in oil 一 caught on fire. Images of the burning Cuyahoga shocked anation, and it led one Wisc
361、onsin Senator the following year to organize the first Earth Day to callattention to the dangers of ignoring our environment.In the four decades since, weve made remarkable progress. Today, our air and water arecleaner, pollution has been greatly reduced, and Americans everywhere are living in a hea
362、lthierenvironment. Weve passed the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and founded theEnvironmental Protection Agency. And in Cleveland, the Cuyahoga River is cleaner than its beenin 100 years. But the true story of environmental movement is not about the laws that have beenpassed. It?s about the ci
363、tizens who have come together time and time again to demand cleaner air,healthier drinking water and safer food, and who have demanded that their representatives ingovernment hold polluters accountable.That progress continues today, as individuals and entrepreneurs across the country help laythe fou
364、ndation for a Clean Energy Economy - one solar panel, smart meter and energy efficienthouse at a time. Since taking office, my administration has been a partner in the fight for ahealthier environment. Through the Recovery Act, weve invested in clean energy and clean waterinfrastructure across the c
365、ountry. Were taking the necessary steps to keep our children safe andhold polluters accountable. And weve rejected the notion that we have to choose between creatingjobs and a healthy environment - because we know that the economy of the 21st century will bebuilt on infrastructure powered by clean e
366、nergy. But even though weve made significant progressthere is much more to do. And as we continue to tackle our environmental challenges, its clearthat change wont come from Washington alone.

503、pisode 2: Steve Jobs Stanford Commencement Speech (Speech)I am honored to be with you today for your commencement from one of the finestuniversities in the world. Truth be told, I never graduated from college. And this is the closest Fveever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you t
504、hree stories from my life. Thats it.No big deal. Just three stories.The first story is about connecting the dots.I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in foranother 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?It started before I was
505、born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduatestudent, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adoptedby college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and hiswife. Except that when I popped out they d
506、ecided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: We havean unexpected baby boy; do you want him? They said: Of course.n My biological mother laterfound out that my mother had never graduated from college
507、 and that my father had nevergraduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a fewmonths later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college. This was the start inmy life.And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college
508、that was almost asexpensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents1 savings were being spent on mycollege tuition. After six months, I couldnt see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to dowith my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spend
509、ingall of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that itwould all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the bestdecisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didntinte
510、rest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked far more interesting.It wasnt all romantic. I didnt have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends rooms, Ireturned coke bottles for the 5。deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles acrosstown every Sunday night to get one goo
511、d meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. Andmuch of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be pricelesslater on. Let me give you one example:Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.Throughout the campu
512、s every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully handcalligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didnt have to take the normal classes, I decided totake a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, aboutvarying the amount of space between di
513、fferent letter combinations, about what makes greattypography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science cant capture,and I found it fascinating.None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, whenwe were designing the fi
514、rst Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it allinto the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on thatsingle course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionallyspaced fonts. And since Windows just co
515、pied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer wouldhave them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class,and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it wasimpossible to connect the dots looking forward when I wa
516、s in college. But it was very, very clearlooking backwards ten years later.Again, you cant connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them lookingbackwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have totrust in something - your gut, destiny, life, ka
517、rma, whatever. Because believing in the dots willconnect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart even when they lead youoff the well-wom path. And it will make all the difference in my life.Episode 3: Jack Ma (Interview)Roles: 1. Interviewer2. Jack MaJack Ma is a small, unass
518、uming man, who has achieved big things and has even largerambitions.In five years among the top five Internet companies in the world one of them will be from Chinaand I hope that we will be that one/ he says.The 42-year-old has built up China*s largest e-commerce company and, in 2005, attracted thet
519、ech giant Yahoo! to buy 40 percent of the privately-held business for a billion U.S. dollars.As part of that deal, Mas Alibaba Group now owns Yahoo! China.The venture Jack Ma launched out of his Hangzhou apartment in 1999 has expanded into 5companies and now employees about 5,000 people.Ma prides hi
520、mself on being a self-made man. nI am 100 percent made in China. I taughtmyself English in China and I have never been educated outside of China.And no matter if he is taking part in a company-organized wedding party or showing off hisfavorite hometown spot, West Lake, Ma embraces it all.CNNs Andrew
521、 Stevens first asked the Hangzhou native why, as a boy, he would cycle 45minutes every day to one of the tourist hotels around West Lake to practice his English withtourists.Jack Ma:I find it interesting. I find that when I listen to these foreign tourists, what they talkabout, and I learn from the
522、schools are different. For example, 1985 my first trip toleave China to Australia. Before that I was told that China was the richest countryin the world and we are the happiest people in the world. We are supposed toliberate the world. When I arrived in Australia, I said Oh My God things aredifferen
523、t, right? They should liberate us. To know that the world is different fromwhat you think and from what you learn. That is the thing that keeps me growingand growing.Interviewer:You are a student and a fan of the Chinese author Jin Yong. He writes wushunovels about ancient heroes. You have said you
524、have taken lessons from his booksand applied them to your business. How exactly?Jack Ma:The Jin Yong book tell me that whatever you want to be a great person or a greatcompany you have to work very hard. And you have to suffer a lot of terriblethings before you can be a hero. It is quite spiritual.
525、And think out of the box. Youhave to think out of the box to win.Interviewer:In 2005 Yahoo! spent a billion dollars buying 40 percent of Alibaba. Now underthat deal Alibaba took over all of Yahoos operations here in China. At the momentYahoo! China isnt making money. So what lessons did you learn fr
526、om those firstfew months of integration?Jack Ma: To change the culture of the company, it is very difficult. It is a difficult company.So we like most young companies we believe that we are so good and we believethat we can do it so we have a high expectation and people have a high expectation,we wa
527、nt to do things quick. And suddenly we realize no good. It is impossible. Sonow we have patience. We know we have the people we have restructured thecompany and restructured the culture and we have the time and we have the cash.And we have the customers. So lets take it a long time.Interviewer: So w
528、hat is your vision for Alibaba? Is it global domination?Jack Ma: I think that the Internet is changing people and it has changed the world. In the next20 years most of the things and most of the people in the world will be using theInternet. Like today people use electricity. So I believe that in 10
529、 years in the worldthere are three top Internet companies and one of them will be from China andAlibaba wants to be that one of them.Episode 4: Tiger Woods9 Apology (Speech)Good morning. And thank you for joining me.Many of you in the room are my friends. Many of you in this room know me. Many of yo
530、u havecheered for me, or worked with me, or supported me, and now, every one of you has good reasonto be critical of me.I want to say to each of you, simply, and directly, I am deeply sorry for my irresponsible andselfish behavior I engaged in.I know people want to find out how I could be so selfish
531、 and so foolish. People want to knowhow I could have done these things to my wife, Elin, and to my children. And while I havealways tried to be a private person, there are some things I want to say.Elin and I have started the process of discussing the damage caused by my behavior. As shepointed out
532、to me, my real apology to her will not come in the form of words. It will come frommy behavior over time. We have a lot to discuss. And however, what we say to each other willremain between the two of us.I am also aware of the pain my behavior has caused to those of you in this room. I have letyou d
533、own. I have let down my fans. For many of you, especially my friends, my behavior hasbeen a personal disappointment. To those of you who work for me, I have let you down,personally and professionally. My behavior has caused considerable worry to my businesspartners.To everyone involved in my foundat
534、ion, including my staff, board of directors, sponsors, andmost importantly, the young students we reach, our work is more important than ever. Thirteenyears ago, my dad and I envisioned helping young people achieve their dreams through education.This work remains unchanged and will continue to grow.
535、 From the Learning Center students inSouthern California, to the Earl Woods Scholars in Washington, D.C., millions of kids havechanged their lives, and I am dedicated to making sure that continues.But, still, I know I have severely disappointed all of you. I have made you question who I amand how I
536、have done the things I did. I am embarrassed that I have put you in this position. Forall that I have done, I am so sorry. I have a lot to atone for.But there is one issue I really want to discuss. Some people have speculated that Elinsomehow hurt or attacked me on Thanksgiving night. It angers me t
537、hat people would fabricate astory like that. Elin never hit me that night or any other night. There has never been an episode ofdomestic violence in our marriage. Ever.Elin has shown enormous grace and poise throughout this ordeal. Elin deserves praise, notblame. The issue involved here was my repea
538、ted irresponsible behavior. I was unfaithful. I hadaffairs. I cheated. What I did is not acceptable. And I am the only person to blame. I stoppedliving by the core values that I was taught to believe in.I knew my actions were wrong. But I convinced myself that normal rules didnt apply. Inever though
539、t about who I was hurting. Instead, I thought only about myself. I ran straightthrough the boundaries that a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away withwhatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all thetemptations around me. I felt I w
540、as entitled. Thanks to money and fame, I didnt have far - didnthave to go far to find them.I was wrong. I was foolish. I dont get to play by different rules. The same boundaries thatapply to everyone apply to me. I brought this shame on myself. I hurt my wife, my kids, mymother, my wifes family, my friends, my foundation, and kids all around the world who admiredme.
