求2月24日奥巴马国会首次演讲演讲稿
一直以来,我们生活在这样一种环境中:人们常常太过于重视短期收益而不是长期繁荣,只着眼于下一次付款、下一个季度或下一次选举,而未能着眼于更长远的目标。财政盈余成了向富人转移财富的借口,而不是为我们的未来进行投资的机会。监管规则遭到破坏,以牺牲市场健康换取短期效益。老百姓明知自己无力承担贷款却还是要买房子,而放款的银行和贷款人不顾实际地大力推销这些坏帐。自始至终,批判性的辩论和艰难的抉择都被一拖再拖。
现在,算总帐的时候已经来临,我们为未来负责的时候也已来临。现在是我们采取大胆和明智行动的时候-我们不但要重振经济,还要为持续的繁荣奠定新的基础。虽然我们痛下决心要缩减预算赤字,但现在仍是我们创造就业、重启信贷的时候,是我们为促进经济增长而投资于能源、医疗和教育的时候。这是在我的经济议程中打算去做的事情,也正是今晚我打算与诸位讨论的事情。.....
经济复苏计划和金融稳定计划是我们为了在短期内重振经济而采取的应急措施。但全面兴美国经济实力的唯一途径,是在那些能够创造新的就业、催生新的行业并恢复美国全球竞争力的领域进行长期投资。要让本世纪再度成为美国世纪,唯一的办法是我们下决心正视依赖石油的代价,正视医疗成本高企的现实,正视学校教育失职以及我们的后代将面临庞大债务的事实。这是我们的责任所在。
几天以后,我将向国会提交预算。太多的时候,我们习惯于将这些预算文件简单地看成纸上的数字或者是项目清单。我不这样看。我将预算看成是美国的远期目标,是我们未来的蓝图。
我这些预算并不是要去解决每一个问题或是每一件事情。它反映的是我们所继承下来的残酷现实-1万亿美元的赤字、一场金融危机和代价巨大的衰退。鉴于这些现实情况,在座的各位--无论是民主党人还是共和党人-都必须要牺牲一些有价值的优先项目,没有资金支持这些项目。我也不会例外。
但这并不意味着我们能够承担起忽视长期挑战的代价。我反对那些认为问题将自己迎刃而解的论调,也反对那些认为政府在为共同繁荣奠定基础的过程中当无为而治的论调。
昨天,我召开了一个财政峰会,在会上我立志要在本届任期结束前将赤字减少一半。我的政府也已着手对联邦预算进行逐项审查,砍掉那些浪费和无效的项目。诸位可以想像,这个过程需要一些时间。但我们已经在最主要的事务上开始着手。我们已经找到了未来10年节省2万亿美元的途径。
在这份预算中,我们将放弃没有作用的教育项目,中止向不需要资金的大型农业企业直接拨款。我们将消除已在伊拉克浪费了数十亿美元的未经招标的合同,改革我们的国防预算,不再向没有用途的冷战时代的武器系统拨款。我们将根除联邦医疗保险计划(Medicare)中的浪费、欺诈和滥用,它们并未使我们的老年人更加健康,我们还最终取消对将就业机会转移到海外的美国公司的税收优惠,恢复税法的公平和平衡。
……
我知道,到目前为止我们还没有在每一个问题上达成一致,未来我们显然也会存在分歧。但是我也知道,今晚坐在这里的每一个美国人都热爱这个国家,并希望它取得成功。这必须是未来几个月我们所有辩论的出发点,也是我们完成这些辩论后的终点。这是美国人民希望我们能够达成一致的基础。
……
但是,我在生活中也认识到,希望是在意想不到的地方发现的;灵感往往不是来自于位高权重之人,而是来自平凡美国人的梦想和渴望。我想到了雷奥纳德?阿贝斯(LeonardAbess),这位迈阿密的银行总裁卖出了公司的股票,向为他工作的所有399人和以前曾为他工作的72人发放了6,000万美元的奖金。他没有告诉任何人,但在当地报纸发现后,他只是说,我从7岁时就认识其中的一些人了。我觉得自己得到这些钱是不对的。
我还想到了堪萨斯州的格林斯堡,这个小镇完全被龙卷风摧毁了,但当地居民正将它重建为一个全球性样板,来证明清洁能源如何为整个小镇供电,如何为曾是一片废墟的地方带来就业和商机。帮助他们重建的一个人说:发生的是可怕的悲剧,但这里的人们知道,它也带来了难得的机遇。
我也想到了我参观的南卡罗来纳州一所学校的小女孩贝西娅(Ty' Sheoma Bethea),教室的天花板漏水,油漆从壁上脱落,他们每天的课程都要中断6次,因为火车就从他们的教室旁驶过。人们都说,她的学校没有希望了,但一天下课后,她到公共图书馆给今天坐在这里的所有人写了一封信。她买邮票的钱也是向校长要的。这封信要求我们提供帮助,信中说:我们是希望有朝一日成为律师、医生、像你们一样的国会议员甚至是总统的学生,这样我们就不仅能改变南卡罗来纳州,也能改变整个世界。我们不是半途而废的人。

英语话题作文 篇2
Should you help the old when he/she falls down on the street?
In current days , with the development of society and economic ,series of social problems are appeared. In order to analyze this phenomenon three universities in Beijing jointly distribute an opinion poll about “Should you help the old when he/she falls down on the street?”.
From the result of this survey, we know that 29.6 percent of the people are surveyed think that whether they help the old or not will according to the circumstance. The people who will help the old are the most ,they accounted for 64.8 percent of them. And also have 8.3 percent hold the view that the old shouldn’t be help.
Why don’t they help the old falls down on the street? 5.3 percent of them are lack of medical knowledge. And 7.2 percent of them think that it’s not related to them. But the major, 87.4 percent of them are afraid of getting themselves into trouble.
Through this result, we can see clearly that crisis of confidence between people. Sincere and confidence are replaced by dishonest and hypocritical. Cautious and alert are deeply rooted.
In my opinion, we all should help each other. Respect and take good care of the old is the traditional Chinese virtues. When we meet the case, we’d better call health care workers for help. Because we lack of medical knowledge may cause more harm to the old. I hope there is less harm and more worm in our life.

从本次调查的结果,我们知道,百分之29.6的人被调查认为,他们是否帮助老人或不将根据情况。帮助老人的人最多,他们占百分之64.8。也有百分之8.3个认为老人不应该帮助。
他们为什么不帮助老人在街上跌倒呢?其中百分之5.3是缺乏医学知识。百分之7.2的人认为这与他们无关。但少校,其中百分之87.4人害怕惹上麻烦。
通过这个结果,我们可以清楚地看到人们之间的信任危机。真诚和自信被虚伪和虚伪所取代。谨慎和警惕根深蒂固。
在我看来,我们都应该互相帮助。尊重和爱护老人是中华民族的传统美德。当我们遇到这种情况时,我们最好打电话给卫生保健人员寻求帮助。因为我们缺乏医学知识可能会对老年人造成更多伤害。我希望生活中少一些伤害和更多的虫子。

英语六级作文题目:
Limiting the Buying of Cars or Not?
1. 对于北京限制购车,有人赞成
2. 也有人表示反对
3. 你的看法
[英语六级作文范文]
Limiting tbe Buying of Cars or Not?
Beijing has placed strict restriction on the number of newly purchased car in the city and the policy bas sparked heated discussion. Some people support the policy, saying it,s a powerful method to cope with the severe traffic congestion in the capital. With cars increasing drastically in the past few years, severe traffic jams occur not only in rush hours but at any time of the day now.
Others, however, aie strongly against the limitations. They argue that the great number of official cars,which are frequently used, is a big factor causing traffic congestion. But the policy mainly aims at private cars and has no dear restrictions on the use of official cars. Besides, car purchase limitation would hinder the development of China's automobile industry,and more people would lose their jobs as a result.
Personally, I think the restriction of buying and use of cars, official cars incladed, is inevitable and just a matter of time for Beijing. If the number of cars is not limited, there will be a huge disaster for the environment, road resources, the travel demands of normal people and the improvement of living standards..

sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups (新兴公司) like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.

英语话题作文 篇5
How many times I have seen a company or organisation habitually waste good food?! Too many times!They are well-meaning people, and they'd like to give away the food instead of wasting it by putting it in the dustbin. They'd maybe like to give the food to the needy or the poor, and there's probably a few beggars just along the road if anyone was kind enough to go along and see if they are hungry.So why don't they do it? Reason: Too many stupid rules!
Just as surely as there's no pig bin anymore for food to be recycled as pork (because of various illconceived ideas about the health of pigs if they eat other people's sunday lunches and leftovers), there's no "well let's give it to the beggars!".Apparently, beggars can in theory take the company to court if they are made ill by the food. Not that they are seriously going to be made ill by perfectly good food, and not that most beggars have the money to start a legal case.
英语话题作文 篇6
Nobody could have failed to notice the fact that drunk driving has become a grave problem in China in the past few years. Reports are often heard about deaths and injuries resulting from drunk driving. Actually, the phenomenon has been so widespread that it has caused nationwide concern.
A number of factors might have led to this problem, but the following are the critical ones. First, as a nation known for wine and drinking, Chinese have the custom of urging guests to drink more and regard it as a sign of hospitality. Some even encourage
drivers to drink. Secondly, the boom of Chinese economy in the past decades has brought along a sharp increase in the number of private cars in this country. However, many drivers are not fully aware of the danger of driving after drinking. Last but not least, laws and regulations regarding drunk driving were not severe enough in the past.
To our relief, we can see pertinent laws and regulations have been worked out and enforced to punish those who drive after drinking. However, I believe that more can be done to eliminate drunk driving. For one thing, severer laws can be made and put
into effect. For another, the public should be educated about the harmfulness of drunk driving and the importance of traffic safety.

Although she got over hundreds of difficulties, she still believed in herself and never gave up. Finally, she succeeded to discover radium.

But if they are confident to themselves, the results turn out to be better. Therefore, be confident, believe in yourself, keep smile in your face when comes to difficulties, and you will achieve more.
英语话题作文 篇8
Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world. A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations.
Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too. Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution.
Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities.
They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment. In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material.
Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment. However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution.
There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do. People will continually find new ways to control pollution.

汽车、火车、飞机和公共汽车需要能量,太。几乎所有这些能量都是由燃烧的燃料产生的。燃烧产生的废物,其中一些留在空气中,造成空气污染。
科学家们正在寻找办法来阻止空气污染,尤其是在大工业区和人口稠密的城市。
他们正在研究新的发电方式,这种方法对环境的破坏性更小。与此同时,许多发电厂正在现代化,以减少污染的物质。
同样,工程师们也正在努力设计新的发电厂,确定新的建厂地点,把对环境的危害减少到最低限度。然而,在我们拥有一个“干净”的世界之前,我们还有很长的路要走。几乎所有的国家都在努力防止和控制空气污染。
环境保护主义者的任务似乎没有尽头。人们会不断找到控制污染的新方法。

Child in a warm blanket sleep well cooked. This quiet snowy night, people feel very warm. This is my impression that winter.
I think it is necessary to talk about why getting cold northern winter.
When on the third day, at night under heavy snow over the road junction of the thick ice, I was very careful in the smooth ice ride to school. My heart also seems that the smooth ice, not a little sense of security. Behind with a taxi, is an uncle of our village, he opened slowly. As a result, I have a corner at the intersection, or fell off their feet, mercilessly fell to solid ice. Slip out of the car, the whole book is also sprinkled with, I am a little confused, bewildered. At this point, the taxi drove to me and squeaky horn sounded. I hear the shrill sound of the horn impatiently. I immediately realized: I blocked the road.

为什么是印象冬天呢?
我生活在北方,能经历真正的冬天,但往往没有想象中的那么和谐。哎,北方冬天越来越冷了。
大雪纷飞,一个银白色的干净的的小村子迎来了黑夜。不一会儿,整片村庄都陷入到令人孤独的夜色里。倏地,一座座小茅屋的结冰窗户上映透出一团团可爱的黄晕,村庄的雪地上点起一片繁星,静谧的茅屋的男主人看着窗外的雪,想起了很多故事,便看向正在烧炉子的女主人,炉火很旺,火苗照红了女主人的脸颊。孩子在温暖的被窝里睡得好熟。这雪夜静悄悄的,让人觉得很暖和。这便是我印象中的那个冬天了。
我想有必要说说为什么北方的冬天越来越冷了。
上初三时,夜里下过大雪,路面结了厚厚的冰,我很小心的在光滑的冰面上骑车上学。我的心似乎也在这光滑的冰面上,没一点安全感。身后跟了辆出租车,是我们村一位叔叔的,他开的很慢。结果,我在路口一拐弯,还是摔了个人仰马翻,狠狠地摔在了结实的冰面上。车子滑出去了,书本也全撒了,我有些不知所措,一脸茫然。就在这时,出租车开到了我跟前,喇叭吱吱的响起来。我听出了刺耳喇叭声中的不耐烦。我马上意识到:我挡路了。
我顾不得疼痛,狼狈的爬起来,赶忙把散落了一地的书本推到路边,又三瘸两拐的站起来,急忙把倒在地上的车子也拖到路边。在刺耳的喇叭声里,我的动作十分快。
我一副狼狈相地让在路边
村里开出租车的叔叔终于撒了他按喇叭的手指,出租车终于不吱吱的叫了。我惶恐的神情才渐渐消褪。叔叔开着车,注视着前方,面无表情的从我身边开车走过。我又一次觉得茫然。
我看着出租车开远,仿佛隐隐听见了车里的嗤笑声。我张了张嘴,觉得无话可说又闭上了,突然觉得遍体冰冷,心里想,北方的冬天越来越冷了。
哎,北方的冬天越来越冷了……
在这寒冷的清晨,我又一次想起了那个我的专属的印象冬天、那结冰窗户上的可爱的黄晕、男主人的故事、女主人的脸颊、熟睡的孩子……我宁愿拒绝这些纯净的雪花,也不愿北方的冬天越来越冷。

1890-1937 Early Ambitions
A merger of three 19th-century companies — the Tabulating Machine Company, the International Time Recording Company and the Computing Scale Company of America — creates the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (CTR) on June 16, 1911. CTR is the precursor to IBM. Thomas J. Watson Sr. joins CTR in 1914 and over the next two decades transforms it into a growing leader of innovation and technology and a prototype for the newly emergent multinational corporation. This shift is signalled in 1924, when the company’s name changes to International Business Machines Corporation (IBM). From the beginning, IBM defines itself not by strategies or products — which range from commercial scales to punch card tabulators — but by forward-thinking culture and management practices grounded in core values. By adhering to its vision and values throughout the Depression — providing continued employment, even adding engineers and other staff in order to sustain its production output — IBM is able to play a pivotal role in enabling the U.S. government’s Social Security Act of 1935, “the biggest accounting operation of all time.”
1938–1951 Growing Influence
Although international commerce is brought to a halt by the Second World War, IBM expands its manufacturing capacity to meet wartime demands — adding to its Endicott, New York plant, and opening new facilities in Poughkeepsie, New York, Washington, D.C., and San Jose, California. Following the war, the company accelerates its international growth, and in 1949, it forms the World Trade Corporation to manage its foreign operations. In the span of two decades, the new organisation will generate more than half of IBM’s bottom line. Business innovation works hand in hand with social innovation during this period, as IBM promotes diversity and corporate philanthropy in its policies. The company begins to focus on opportunities for women, minorities and the disabled — years before such considerations would become the norm.
1952–1963 Foundations of Modern Computing
The ascension of Thomas J. Watson Jr. to IBM’s presidency in 1952 marks the beginning of the company’s transition to a modern corporation. During the first decade of his tenure, Watson Jr. — later labelled by Fortune as the “most successful capitalist who ever lived” — begins to transform IBM from a leading industry player into a business behemoth that spans the globe. He refocuses IBM toward the development and commercialisation of electronic computer technologies, creates and institutionalises professional corporate management practices, and codifies unwritten IBM philosophy and behaviours into formal policies and programmes. These technological, business and social innovations propel IBM into the 1960s as the world’s leading high-technology firm.
1964–1970The 360 Revolution
In the early 1960s, IBM sees its marketplace lead threatened by a series of worthy challengers. In a bold business move — Thomas J. Watson Jr.’s legendary “bet the company” decision — IBM develops the revolutionary System/360™ family of mainframe computers. Sparked in part by the triumph of the System/360, IBM experiences a nearly fivefold increase in revenues and earnings over the course of the decade. The organisation wears its mantle of success well, adopting a host of progressive new employee and social programmes that make it one of the world’s most admired companies. If IBM ended the 1950s as a technology leader, it ends the 1960s as a global business icon.
1971–1992Computing Gets Personal
Building on its success in the 1960s, IBM solidifies its position as the IT industry’s — and the business world’s — most profitable, admired and iconic corporation, and continues to develop innovative new products throughout the 1970s. From the magnetic-stripe technology used on credit cards, to floppy disks, to the Consumer Transaction Facility (an early form of today’s ATM), IBM’s ingenuity is felt everywhere. As a new era of computing begins to take hold in the 1980s, the company creates standards that legitimise the PC, turning it from a hobbyist device into an indispensable tool of modern life — in homes, businesses and schools around the world. The company also continues to push the boundaries of scientific discovery, with five IBM researchers sharing three Nobel Prizes in Physics. However, despite its depth and breadth of innovation, by the late 1980s IBM finds itself thrown into turmoil by the very revolutions it helped launch — initiating a downturn and period of unrest for the company that will persist into the following decade.
1993–2002The Birth of e-business
Entering the 1990s, IBM confronts its most significant strategic challenges since the Depression and successfully undertakes one of the great turnarounds in business history. It moves into major new growth businesses, principally services and software, and embraces open standards for computing. The company also fundamentally reshapes its culture to refocus on clients and to be more agile, responsive and collaborative. This transformation coincides with the advent of the Internet, and IBM is a pioneer in helping clients capitalise on the new possibilities of global networked computing and business — what it dubs “e-business.” As the 20th century comes to a close, IBM stands, once again, at the forefront of global technology and business.
Impact on Daily Life
“Business” may be IBM’s middle name, but never in the company’s history is its impact strictly a commercial one — nor one limited to the field of technology. Watson Sr.’s devotion to “world peace through world trade,” for example, influences the nature of global business for years to come. The company’s partnership with NASA, culminating in the 1969 moon landing, transforms the public’s understanding of their world. And the progressive employee initiatives enacted throughout the 20th century set the bar, time and again, for the policies of corporations and governments worldwide.
International Scope
From its earliest days, IBM is a company with global ambitions. Rapidly expanding its reach from North America to Europe, Asia and beyond, by 1944 the company has offices on six continents. In 1949 it establishes the World Trade Organisation to manage its foreign operations, and in the subsequent years launches 11 research laboratories in locations around the world. By the early 2000s, IBM will span 170 countries and draw 65% of its revenue from outside the U.S. — further strengthening its ability to deliver value worldwide and affirming its ambitions to be the premier globally integrated enterprise.
Technology Advances
From the database, to the hard disk drive, to supercomputing, IBM is responsible for some of the most significant breakthroughs in modern technology. Over the decades, these contributions — many of which have their origins in the company’s famed Global Research Labs — make IBM the recipient of more U.S. patents than any other commercial organisation or individual in history. And the recognition does not end there. Five Nobel Prizes, two Japan Prizes, six Turing Awards, seven U.S. Medals of Technology and five U.S. Medals of Science — all find a home at IBM by the close of the century.
Business Leadership
Decade after decade, IBM’s core expertise remains the same: to provide corporations, governments and other organisations with the tools and expertise they need to have the greatest impact. It is what the company means by “dedication to every client’s success.” But it does not end with the client. From its inception, IBM strives to rethink the nature of business itself — from the technology utilised, to the role of design and branding, to the ways in which employees and leadership interact. In pioneering the transformation from international to multinational to globally integrated, we helped to redefine the relationship between business and society at large.
Corporate Milestones
Every company can identify those select moments in its history that are distinctively meaningful — to employees, partners, clients and other stakeholders. A very few companies, however, can also identify those moments in their histories that have had a lasting impact on the world. IBM is one of these companies. Spanning the realms of science, technology, culture and business, the organisational milestones that have most inspired people within IBM are those that have also transformed the lives and thinking of people everywhere.
Progressive Workplace
When Thomas Watson Sr. joins IBM — still known as CTR — in 1915, he immediately sets out to build the company’s culture on the shared values and progressive aims of its employees. As the century unfolds, more than anything else it is this culture that guides IBM’s work, influences its policies and shapes its marketplace identity. We see it the array of diversity initiatives implemented over the years. We see it in the forward-looking environmental practices. And, ultimately, we see it in the way IBM repeatedly and fundamentally re-imagines what a company can be — to its employees, to its clients and to the world.

History of Beijing
There were cities in the vicinities of Beijing by the 1st millennium BC, and the capital of the State of Yan, one of the powers of the Warring States Period (473-221 BC), Ji (蓟/蓟), was established in present-day Beijing.
After the fall of the Yan, the subsequent Qin, Han, and Jin dynasties set-up local prefectures in the area. In Tang Dynasty it became the headquarter for Fanyang jiedushi, the virtual military governor of current northern Hebei area. An Lushan lauched An Shi Rebellion from here in 755. This rebellion is often regarded as a turning point of Tang dynasty, as the central government began to lose the control of the whole country.
In 936, the Later Jin Dynasty (936-947) of northern China ceded a large part of its northern frontier, including modern Beijing, to the Khitan Liao Dynasty. In 938, the Liao Dynasty set up a secondary capital in what is now Beijing, and called it Nanjing (the "Southern Capital"). In 1125, the Jurchen Jin Dynasty annexed Liao, and in 1153 moved its capital to Liao's Nanjing, calling it Zhongdu (中都), "the central capital." Zhongdu was situated in what is now the area centred around Tianningsi, slightly to the southwest of central Beijing.
Mongol forces burned Zhongdu to the ground in 1215 and rebuilt it to the north of the Jin capital in 1267. In preparation for the conquest of all of China, Yuan (Mongol) Dynasty founder Kublai Khan made this his capital as Khanbaliq (Mongolian for "great residence of the Khan") or Dadu (大都, for "grand capital"). This site is known as Cambuluc in Marco Polo's accounts. Apparently, Kublai Khan, who wanted to bee a emperor, established his capital at this location instead of more traditional sites in central China because it was closer to his power base in Mongolia. The decision of the Khan greatly enhanced the status of a city that had been situated on the northern fringe of China proper. Khanbaliq was situated north of modern central Beijing. It centred on what is now the northern stretch of the 2nd Ring Road, and stretched northwards to between the 3rd and 4th Ring Roads. There are remnants of Mongol-era wall still standing.
After the fall of the Yuan Dynasty in 1368, the city was later rebuilt by the Ming Dynasty and Shuntian (顺天) prefecture was established in the area around the city. In 1403, the third Ming Emperor Yongle moved the Ming capital from Nanjing (Nanking) to the renamed Beijing (Peking) (北京), the "northern capital", situated in the north. The capital was also known as Jingshi 京师, simply meaning capital. During the Ming Dynasty, Beijing took its current shape, and the Ming-era city wall served as the Beijing city wall until modern times, when it was pulled down and the 2nd Ring Road was built in its place.
It is believed that Beijing was the largest city in the world from 1425 to 1650 and from 1710 to 1825 [2].
The Forbidden City, home to the Emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Panorama view of the Forbidden City, home to the Emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.The Forbidden City was constructed soon after that (1406-1420), followed by the Temple of Heaven (1420), and numerous other construction projects. Tiananmen, which has bee a state symbol of the People's Republic of China and is featured on its emblem, was burned down twice during the Ming Dynasty and the final reconstruction was carried out in 1651.
After the Manchus overthrew the Ming Dynasty and established the Qing Dynasty in its place, Beijing remained China's capital throughout the Qing period. Just like during the preceding dynasty, Beijing was also known as Jingshi, which corresponded to the Manchu Gemun Hecen with the same meaning. It was the scene of the siege of the foreign legations during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900.
The Xinhai Revolution of 1911, aimed at replacing Qing rule with a republic, originally intended to establish its capital at Nanjing. After high-ranking Qing official Yuan Shikai forced the abdication of the Qing emperor in Beijing and ensured the success of the revolution, the revolutionaries in Nanjing accepted that Yuan should be the president of the new Republic of China, and that the capital should remain at Beijing.
Yuan gradually consolidated power, culminating in his declaration of a Empire in late 1915 with himself as emperor. The move was highly unpopular, and Yuan himself died less than a year later, ending his brief reign. China then fell under the control of regional warlords, and the most powerful factions fought frequent wars (the Zhili-Anhui War, the First Zhili-Fengtian War, and the Second Zhili-Fengtian War) to take control of the capital at Beijing.
Following the success of the Kuomintang's Northern Expedition which pacified the warlords of the north, Nanjing was officially made the capital of the Republic of China in 1928, and Beijing was renamed Beiping (Peip'ing) (北平), "northern peace" or "north pacified", to emphasize that the warlord government in Beijing was not legitimate.
During the Second Sino-Japanese War, Beiping fell to Japan on 29 July 1937. During the occupation, the city was reverted to its former name, Beijing, and made the seat of the Provisional Government of the Republic of China, a puppet state that ruled the ethnic portions of Japanese-occupied North China. It was later merged into the larger Wang Jingwei Government based in Nanjing. With Japan's surrender in World War II, on 15 August 1945, however, Beijing's name was changed back to Beiping.
On January 31, 1949, during the Civil War, munist forces entered Beijing without a fight. On October 1 of the same year, the munist Party of China, under the leadership of Mao Zedong, announced in Tiananmen the creation of the People's Republic of China in Beijing. Just a few days earlier, the People's Political Consultative Conference had decided that Beiping would be the capital of the new government, and that its name would be changed back to Beijing.
At the time of the founding of the People's Republic, Beijing Municipality consisted of just its urban area and immediate suburbs. The urban area was divided into many *** all districts inside what is now the 2nd Ring Road. Since then several surrounding counties have been incorporated into the Municipality, enlarging the limits of Beijing Municipality by many times and giving it its present shape. The Beijing city wall was torn down between 1965 and 1969 to make way for the construction of the 2nd Ring Road.
Beijing's Tiananmen SquareFollowing the economic reforms of Deng Xiaoping, the urban area of Beijing has expanded greatly. Formerly within the confines of the 2nd Ring Road and the 3rd Ring Road, the urban area of Beijing is now pushing at the limits of the recently-constructed 5th Ring Road and 6th Ring Road (under construction), with many areas that were formerly farmland now developed residential or mercial neighborhoods. A new mercial area has developed in the Guomao area, Wangfujing and Xidan have developed into flourishing shopping districts, while Zhongguancun has bee a major center of electronics in China.
In recent years, the expansion of Beijing has also brought to the forefront some problems of urbanization, such as heavy traffic, poor air quality, the loss of historic neighborhoods, and significant influx of migrants from poorer regions of the country, especially rural areas.
Early 2005 saw the approval by government of a plan to finally stop the sprawling development of Beijing in all directions. Development of the capital would now proceed in two semicircular bands just outside of the city centre (both west and east) instead of being in concentric rings.
Beijing has been chosen to host the 2008 Summer Olympics, an event that has sparked nationalistic pride across China.
