大學(xué)英語演講1
smoking is not as commonplace and is subject to restrictions in most public places. before smoking, the best policy is to ask if anyone minds, or wait to see if others smoke. restaurants often have a section where smoking is permitted; many hotels designate rooms as smoking and non-smoking.
a handshake is the customary greeting for both men and women, although you should wait to see if the woman offers her hand.
apart from greeting close family members or friends, americans tend to refrain from greetings that involve hugging and other close physical contact. for the most part, they are unreceptive to being touched during conversation and other social situations.
the standard space between you and your conversation partner should be about two feet. most u.s. e_ecutives will be uncomfortable standing at a closer distance.
direct eye contact conveys that you are sincere, although it should not be too intense. certain ethnic groups will look away to show respect.
friends or acquaintances of the same se_ generally do not hold hands.
to point, you may use the inde_ finger, although it"s impolite to point at another person.
to beckon someone, wave either all the fingers or just the inde_ finger in a scooping motion, with the palm facing up.
to show approval, there are two common gestures: the "o.k." sign, formed by making a circle of the thumb and inde_ finger, and the "thumbs up" sign, formed by making a fist and pointing the thumb upward.

活動時間:_年3月29日
活動地點:圖書館報告廳
一,流程安排:主持人宣布演講比賽開始,并介紹評委及嘉賓。進(jìn)入比賽第一關(guān),選手按順序進(jìn)行演講,演講內(nèi)容包括綠色奧運,環(huán)境保護(hù),熱愛家鄉(xiāng)等方面。演講過后,由國貿(mào)的同學(xué)演唱一首英語歌曲《bigbigworld》,調(diào)節(jié)現(xiàn)場氣氛。然后進(jìn)入第二關(guān):即興演講。選手現(xiàn)場抽題,10秒鐘準(zhǔn)備時間后選手開始演講,演講主題各不相同,這主要考驗選手的應(yīng)變能力和英語的語言功底。演講結(jié)束后進(jìn)行了現(xiàn)場互動,主持人讓現(xiàn)場觀眾回答有關(guān)奧運體育項目的英語單詞,并送出了我們準(zhǔn)備的獎品。然后,主持人公布比賽結(jié)果并由評委為選手頒發(fā)獎狀及獎品。外籍教師在為選手頒獎后做了精彩演講。本次比賽進(jìn)行的很順利,鍛煉了選手,豐富了同學(xué)們的.課余生活,達(dá)到了預(yù)期的效果。
二,活動心得:本次比賽雖然時間比較倉促,但在老師及學(xué)生會成員的大力支持與幫助下,我們在三天的時間內(nèi)將比賽準(zhǔn)備好,從選手報名到通知選手相關(guān)事宜,從布置賽場和安排人員座位,每一項工作我們都盡力做好。我們在做每一項工作之前,都想好了這項工作應(yīng)該注意的細(xì)節(jié)。由此,我們知道,只要我們做事認(rèn)真用心,團(tuán)結(jié)合作,我們一定能把事情做好。
三,活動意義:本次比賽,積極響應(yīng)了我校提出的"學(xué)風(fēng)建設(shè)工程"的號召,在我院建立起良好的英語學(xué)習(xí)氛圍,樹立良好的學(xué)風(fēng),并及時配合學(xué)校的各項工作,建立和諧校園。另外,此次比賽使得參賽選手充分展現(xiàn)了自我,肯定了自我,使選手們克服了對開口講英語的恐懼感,樹立學(xué)好英語的信心,更加調(diào)動了選手對英語學(xué)習(xí)的積極性,考察并提高了選手對英語的運用及應(yīng)變能力。此次比賽,不僅豐富了同學(xué)的課余生活,并更能夠豐富同學(xué)的語言文化,增強同學(xué)的主人翁意識。也希望通過本次比賽,讓越來越多的同學(xué)喜歡英語,學(xué)習(xí)英語,熱愛英語,為北京奧運講英語。本文選自
四,存在問題:在比賽過程中,我們發(fā)現(xiàn)了很多不足之處,比賽仍有很多漏洞。首先,在為評委準(zhǔn)備筆時,我們忽略了筆沒有水的問題,結(jié)果真的有一支筆不好使了。因此,我們的比賽很可能就是因為一支筆而不能正常進(jìn)行。從中,反映了我們的工作的不細(xì)致,一些細(xì)節(jié)問題沒有注意到,是我們工作的一大疏忽。其次,在每位選手結(jié)束演講后,我們沒有安排專門的工作人員去評委手中拿評分表,不得不讓我部部長去擔(dān)任此工作,這同樣是我們工作的不周全之處,人員安排上仍不是很合理。還有,在比賽進(jìn)行到即興演講環(huán)節(jié)時,主持人讓第一環(huán)節(jié)的得分最高的選手先抽題進(jìn)行演講,這樣安排同樣也是不合理的,而是應(yīng)該讓得分高的選手后演講,留給她更多的時間去思考,以便其更好的發(fā)揮出其過人的英語口語水平,展示其英語功底。所以,我們會吸取本次比賽的經(jīng)驗教訓(xùn),在以后的工作中,注重細(xì)節(jié),考慮周全,爭取將工作做的更好!
五,改進(jìn)意見:就活動中存在的缺點及不足予以改正,用心考慮好每一個細(xì)節(jié),要做到精益求精,工作分工要明確,人員安排要合理有序,對于比賽現(xiàn)場有可能發(fā)生的事情,提前想好對策。雖然本次活動在音響和話筒上沒有出現(xiàn)較大的問題,但是我們以后在搞活動的同時仍然會在這方面多加注意。我們會在此次活動的基礎(chǔ)上,改進(jìn)缺點與不足,繼續(xù)發(fā)揚此次活動的優(yōu)點,在不足之處,我們會在以后的活動中多加注意,爭取將缺點一一改正。此外,在這學(xué)期之內(nèi),我們部會開展更多更加有意義的活動,來豐富同學(xué)的課余生活,從活動中感受快樂!

saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems.....
everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have
e_perienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .
having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later
generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!
the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.so we must treasure it ,don't let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.

三分鐘英語演講:大學(xué)對我的意義
what college education means to me
the title of my speech is "what college education means to me".now reflecting on the past two and half years of my college e_perience, i come to realize how much it has shaped me.
for me, college education is a marvelous ship-builder who designed me from kneel plates up.
with great vision, college education has equipped me, first with a powerful propeller----the sophisticated knowledge in certain field and wide e_posure to other disciplines. by dedicating myself to the engineering courses in the day and immersing myself in the rich banquet of the world literature at night, i’ve amassed the driving force for the future and enriched my soul.
besides, college education has also provided me with a precise compass----the sense of social responsibility. how can i best serve the interest of the public while achieving my self-fulfillment? my one year’s e_perience as a part-time english teacher has testified: to be valuable to society as well as to find my place, i have to possess some actual strength and the ability to function well in the most challenging situation. amid the hectic schedule that balances club activities, sports, and academic courses, i feel the rhythm and beauty in the intensity of my high-pitched life, knowing that i ’m on the right way.
and more importantly, college education has set up not only single ships, but also fleets with common destinations. by interacting with friends of common beliefs, i’ve acquired skills of relating to other people.
now ,as a ship about to make my maiden voyage ,i’m still not in the position to tell what’s waiting ahead of me ,but with a powerful propeller, a precise compass and ardent companions of sailing in the sea of society, i’m ready to be a great sea-e_plorer.
thank you.

i believe i can fly! maybe you think that i am a crazy person or something. well, actually “i believe i can fly” is the name of a song, which is my favorite english song. the reason why i like this song is the song brings me courage to make my dreams come true. just like the song say “i believe i can fly! i believe i can touch the sky”。 you know i still dream about being a witch like harry potter and live in the wizardly world, to use my powers to save the day, like stopping the world trade center from falling down, or stopping the war on iraq…i know being a witch is impossible, but to make our world a better place is definitely possible.
besides being a witch i also want to be an archaeologist, an egyptologist. i want to go to egypt, to discover the beauty of this ancient civilization. i think about it day and night, i see myself standing beside the pyramid, and working in the desert with mummies and sarcophagus. maybe the dream is kind of far away from me. but i believe that one day my dream will indeed come true.
finally, i want to tell you all that i always keep saying to myself: “i believe i can fly!” and now i am standing on this stage, and i believe i can make it!

vice president hu,thank you very much for your kind and generous remarks. thank you for welcoming me and my wife , laura, here.
i see she is keeping pretty good company with the secretary of state, collin powell.
it is good to see you, mr. secretary.
and i see my national security adviser, ms.codoleezza rice, who once was the provost of stanford university, so she is comfortable on the university campuses such as this.
thank you for being here ,codin.
i am so grateful for the hospitality and honored for the reception at one of china’s and the world’s great universities.
the standards and the reputation of this university are known around the world, and i know what an achievement it is to be here. so congratulations.
my visit to china comes an important anniversary, as the vice president mentioned.thirty years ago this week an american president arrived in china on an trip designed to end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of suspicious. president richard ni_on showed that two vastly different government could meet on the grounds of common interests in the spirit of mutual respect.
as they left the airport that day, premier zhou en-lai said this to president ni_on: “you handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world-25years of no communication.
during the 30 years since, america and china have e_changed many handshakes of friendship and commerce. and as we have had more contact with each other ,the citizens of both countries have gradually learned more about each other.
it was my honor to visit china in 1975.some of you were not even born then. it shows how old i am.
and a lot has changed in your country since then. china has made amazing progress in openness and enterprise and economic freedom. and this progress previews china’s great potential. china has joined the world trade organization, and as you live up to its obligations, they inevitably will bring changes to chinese leagal system. a morden china will have a consistent rule of law to govern commerce and secure the rights of its people.
the new china you generation is building will need the profound wisdom of your traditions. the lure of materialism challenges society in our country- and in many successful countries.
all these changes will lead to a stronger, more confident china, a china that can astonish and enrich the world, a china that you generation will help create.
this is one of the mose e_citing times in the history of your country, a time when even the grandest hopes seem in your reach. my nation offers you our respect and our friendship.
si_ years from now, athletes from america and all around the world will come to you country for the olympic games, and i am confident they will find a china that is becoming a daguo, a leading nation, at peace with its people and at peace with the world.
非常感謝__主席熱情洋溢的歡迎致詞,非常感謝您再這里接待我和我的夫人勞拉。
我發(fā)現(xiàn)她和國務(wù)卿科林。鮑威爾先生相處的非常好。
很高興看到你國務(wù)卿先生。
我也看到了我的國家安全顧問康多莉薩.賴斯女士,她曾經(jīng)是斯坦福大學(xué)的校長,因此她回到校園是再合適不過了。
謝謝你能來,康迪。
非常感謝各位對我的熱情接待,很榮幸能夠來到中國,甚至是世界最偉大的學(xué)府之一。
清華大學(xué)的治學(xué)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和聲望聞名于世,我也知道能考入這所大學(xué)本身就是一個很大的成就,祝賀你們。
我這次訪華恰逢一個重要的紀(jì)念日,副主席剛才也談到了,30年前的這一周,一位美國總統(tǒng)來到了中國,他訪華之旅的目的是為了結(jié)速兩國之間長達(dá)數(shù)十年的隔閡。,和數(shù)百年的相互猜疑。尼克松總統(tǒng)向世界表明了兩個有重大差異的國家,本著互惠互利,互相尊重的精神是能夠站在一起的。
那天他們離開機場的時候,周恩來總理對尼克松總統(tǒng)說了這樣一番話,他說:“你與我的握手越過了世界上最為遼闊的海洋,這個還有就是互不交往的25年。”
30年以來,美國和中國握過多次友誼之手和商業(yè)之手。隨著我們兩國間接觸的日益頻繁,我們兩國的國民也加深了對彼此的了解,這是非常重要的。
我在1975年有幸訪問過中國,那時候在座的有些人可能還沒有出生,這也表明我是多么老了。
從那時以來,貴國發(fā)生了很多變化。中國在開發(fā),企業(yè),經(jīng)濟自由方面都取得了驚人的成績。這一成績顯示了中國的巨大潛能。中國已經(jīng)加入了世貿(mào)組織,在各位旅行其義務(wù)的同時這些義務(wù)勢必給中國的法律制度帶來變化。一個現(xiàn)代化的中國將有著統(tǒng)一的法制來規(guī)范他們的商業(yè)生活和保障人民的利益。
你們這一代人正在建設(shè)的中國也需要深遠(yuǎn)傳統(tǒng)的智慧結(jié)晶。物質(zhì)利益的誘惑對我們的社會造成了挑戰(zhàn)-在我們的國家給我們的社會造成了調(diào)整,在很多發(fā)達(dá)國家也是。
所以的這些變化將導(dǎo)致中國更強大,更自信,這個中國將使世界矚目,也將使世界更加豐富。
這個這個就是諸位這一代幫助創(chuàng)立的中國?,F(xiàn)在使中國歷史上非常令人振奮的一個時期,此時此刻連最宏偉的夢想似乎也唾手可得。我的國度,對中國表示尊敬和友誼。
再過六年,來自美國和世界各地的運動員將到貴國參加奧運會,我堅信,他們能夠見到的中國是一個正在變成大國的中國,一個走在世界前沿的國家,一個民心安定,與世界和平共處的國家。

in order to get high marks, some students figure out all the ways, the worse situation is to plagiarize other student’s hard-working. plagiarism is a big mistake, the teachers are always emphasizing it, but the lazy students go against the rule, they want to pass assessment easily. these students should be shameful about themselves.
on the one hand, plagiarizing means the lack of respect of other students’ hard-working. students need to spend many hours and put a lot of effort to finish the paper; the outcome means their wisdom and paid, just as the old saying, “no pain, no gain”. while the lazy students destroy other students’ effort, they just get the job done without their own thinking; they can even get the more high marks. this is very unfair; every student should finish the task in their own wisdom, showing respect to each other.
on the other hand, the students who are used to plagiarism will end up hurting themselves. if the students’ such behavior is found by others, they will get bad record in their files, which means they will have problem on trust issues, it is hard for them to find a job. if they are lucky to not be found, they still learn nothing, they lack of ability.
in conclusion, plagiarism is a shameful behavior; students should learn things by their own minds.
為了得到高分,一些學(xué)生找到一切門路,最壞的情形是剽竊其他同學(xué)的辛勤勞動成果。剽竊是很嚴(yán)重的錯誤,老師總是強調(diào)這點,但是懶惰的學(xué)生總是違反這個規(guī)則,他們想要輕易地通過評估。這樣的學(xué)生應(yīng)該為自己感到羞愧。
一方面,剽竊意味著對其他學(xué)生勞動成果的不尊重。學(xué)生需要花費很多時間和精力來完成論文,成果意味著他們的智慧和付出,就像古語有云,沒有付出,就沒有收獲。然而懶惰的學(xué)生破壞了其他學(xué)生的勞動,他們完成工作不費吹灰之力,甚至還能拿到更高的分?jǐn)?shù)。這是很不公平的,每個學(xué)生都應(yīng)該用自己的智慧來完成任務(wù),尊敬彼此。
另一方面,習(xí)慣剽竊的學(xué)生最終會傷害自己。如果學(xué)生的剽竊行為被別人發(fā)現(xiàn),他們的檔案上就會有不良記錄,這意味著他們在誠信上有問題,很難找到工作。如果他們幸運不被發(fā)現(xiàn),他們也沒有學(xué)到東西,缺乏能力。
總的來說,剽竊是可恥的行為,學(xué)生應(yīng)該用自己的腦子來學(xué)習(xí)東西。

knowing the consequences of choice
over the past spring festival, i got involved in a family dispute. right before i got home, four satellite channels of cctv were added to the 14 channels we had already had. in prime time at night, they all had interesting shows. therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and i-had to argue over what to watch. finally, we agreed that we should watch the "most interesting" programme... if we
could agree what that was.
however, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had tv, there were only one or two channels available. the increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.
fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one colour. today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.
fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers. today, we read english newspapers like the china daily and the 21st century, as well as various chinese newspapers.
fifteen years ago, english majors took only courses in language and literature. today, we also study western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.
the emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in china"s history; an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the chinese nation.
we enjoy the abundance of choice. but this has not come easily.
about 150 years ago, china was forced to open up its door by western canons and gunboats. it has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. the policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.
like others of my age, i"m too young to have e_perienced the time when the chinese people had no right to choose. however, as the ne_t century draws near, it is time to ask: what does choice really mean to us young people?
is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? is choice an empty promise that never materializes? or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?
first, i would like to say: to choose means to claim opportunities.
i am a third-year english major. an important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. i can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. i can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in china.
indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. i would love to work in such big cities as beijing or shanghai or shenzhen. i would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. i would love to stay in the coastal area where life is e_citing and fast-paced. i would also love to put down roots in central and western china, which is underdeveloped, but holds
great potential.
all of these sound good. but they are only possibilities. to those of us who are bewildered at the abundance of opportunities, i would like to say: to choose means to accept challenge.
to us young people, challenge often emerges in the form of competition. in the ne_t century, competition will not only come from other college graduates, but also from people of all ages and of all origins.
with increasing international e_changes, we have to face growing competition from the whole outside world. this is calling for a higher level of our personal development.
fifteen years ago, the knowledge of a foreign language or of computer operation was considered merely an advantage. but today, with wider educational opportunities, this same knowledge has become essential to everyone.
given this situation, even our smallest choices will require great wisdom and personal determination.
as we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
as we gain more initiative in choice making, the consequence of each choice also becomes more important.
nuclear power, for instance, may improve our quality of life. but it can also be used to damage the lives and possessions of millions.
economic development has enriched our lives but brought with it serious harm to our air, water and health.
to those of us who are blind to the consequences of their choices, i would like to say, to choose means to take responsibility. when we are making choices for ourselves, we cannot casually say: "it"s just my own business. " as policy makers of the ne_t century, we cannot fail to see our responsibility to those who share the earth with us.
the traditional chinese culture teaches us to study hard and work hard so as to honor our family. to me, however, this family is not just the five of us who quarreled over television programmes. rather, it is the whole of the human family. as i am making my choices, i will not forget the smile of my teacher when i correctly spelled out the word "china" for the first time, i will not forget the happy faces of the boys and girls we helped to send back to school in the mountains of jiang_i province. i will not forget the tearful eyes of women and children in bosnia, chechnya and somali, where millions are suffering from war, famine or poverty.
all these people, known and unknown, make up our big human family. at different points, they came into my life and broaden my perspective. now as i am to make choices for myself, it is time to make efforts to improve their lives, because a world will benefit us all only if every one in it can lead a peaceful and prosperous life.
選擇的重要性
去年春節(jié)期間,我陷入過一場家庭紛爭。在我回家之前,我們家的電視除了已有的14個頻道外又增加了四個衛(wèi)星頻道。晚上的黃金時間,每個頻道的節(jié)目都很精彩.結(jié)果,我們一家五口(父母,兩個姐姐和我)為了選臺而爭執(zhí)起來。最后,我們決定應(yīng)當(dāng)看"最有意思"的節(jié)目——如果我們在什么是"最有意思"上可以認(rèn)同的話。
不過我們?nèi)记宄赜浀?,買了電視后的好長一段時間里,只有一兩個頻道可供選擇。電視頻道的增多反映出我們生活中的一個重大變化:選擇余地的擴大。
15年前,我們身著同樣的款式,單一的色調(diào)。而如今,紛繁的花色和眾多的式樣讓我們挑得眼花繚亂。 15年前,英語專業(yè)的學(xué)生只能選語言與文學(xué)課程。而如今,我們還學(xué)習(xí)西方文化,新聞,商務(wù),國際關(guān)系,甚至還有計算機課程。
選擇的涌現(xiàn)標(biāo)志著中國進(jìn)入了一個嶄新的時代,一個充滿多樣化的時代,一個物質(zhì)與精神都愈加豐富的時代,一個中華民族獲得新生的時代。
我們?yōu)檫x擇之多而歡呼雀躍,同時也深深地感到這一切來之不易。
一個半世紀(jì)之前,在西方大炮、戰(zhàn)艦的威通下,中國被迫打開了國門。經(jīng)過祖祖輩輩的抗?fàn)幣c犧牲,我們才最終贏得了當(dāng)家作主的機會。改革開放這個正確的抉擇使一切發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化。
我和其他同齡人一樣,太年輕了、沒有經(jīng)歷過中國人喪失選擇權(quán)的歲月。但是,隨著下個世紀(jì)的腳步越走越近,我們是該們心自間了:選擇,對于我們青年一代,到底意味著什么?
選擇,是場靠僥幸來獲勝的游戲嗎?是句不用兌現(xiàn)的空話嗎?抑或是種讓人知難而退的困境?
首先,我認(rèn)為,選擇意味著抓住機遇。
我是英語專業(yè)三年級學(xué)生,我所面臨的一個重大選擇當(dāng)然是畢業(yè)后的去向。我可以攻讀碩士學(xué)位,或在國內(nèi),或在國外。我可以走上工作崗位,做名教師,翻譯,記者,編輯或外交家.實際上,雙向選擇的體制在我面前鋪開了通向各行各業(yè)的大道。
說真的,這個選擇并不好做。我愿意在像北京、上海、深圳這樣的大都市里工作,我也盼著能回到雖不那么發(fā)達(dá)卻使我倍感親切的故鄉(xiāng)。我希望可以留在生活節(jié)奏快,令人興奮的沿海地帶,我也愿意扎根于廣炭的中西部地區(qū),那里雖然條件艱苦,卻有極大的發(fā)展?jié)摿Α?/p>
所有這一切聽上去令人振奮,但它們畢竟只是可能性。有些人面對五花八門的選擇挑得眼花繚亂,我要告訴他們:選擇就意味著接受挑戰(zhàn)。
對于我們青年一代,挑戰(zhàn)常以竟?fàn)幍男问匠霈F(xiàn)。到下個世紀(jì),競爭者將不僅只是其他大學(xué)畢業(yè)生,更有各行各業(yè)不同年齡層的人們。
隨著國際交流的不斷增多,我們得面對來自整個外部世界日益激烈的競爭,這就對我們個/、的發(fā)展提出了更高的要求。
15年前,懂門外語或會用計算機是個優(yōu)越條件。但今天,隨著受教育面的拓寬,以上的知識也成了每個人必備的條件。
在這種形勢下,即便最細(xì)小的選擇也要求我們具有極大的智慧和自主精神。
當(dāng)我們面對選擇不斷增強自己的主動性時,每一次選擇的結(jié)果也同樣變得愈加重要。
比方說,核能可以提高人民的生活水平,可它同樣也能毀滅千百萬人的生命財產(chǎn)。
經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展使我們富裕起來,卻也給我們的空氣、水、健康帶來了嚴(yán)重危害。有些人對選擇的后果毫不在乎,我要對他們說:選擇還意味著承擔(dān)責(zé)任。我們替自己做選擇時,不能隨口一句"這不關(guān)別人的事"。作為下個世紀(jì)的決策者,我們必須承擔(dān)對和我們共同擁有這個地球的人們所負(fù)的責(zé)任。
傳統(tǒng)的中華文化教育我們,要勃奮學(xué)習(xí),努力工作,以榮耀家門。然而我認(rèn)為,這個家門并不只指諸如我的那個爭看電視的五口小家。更確切地說,它指的是整個人類這個大家庭。當(dāng)我為自己的未來做出選擇時,我不會忘記自己第一次正確讀出"china"這個單詞時老師臉上的笑容。我也不會忘記在我們的幫助下重返校園的江西山區(qū)的孩子們興奮的臉龐。我更不會忘記飽受戰(zhàn)火、饑荒、貧困蹂蹦的波斯尼亞、車臣、索馬里,不會忘記那里成千上萬的婦女兒童淚水模糊的雙眼。
所有這些我認(rèn)識或不認(rèn)識的人們組成了人類這個大家庭。他們從不同的時空中走進(jìn)了我的生活,開拓了我的視野。現(xiàn)在,我將為自己做出抉擇,該是為使他們的生活變得美好而奮斗的時候了。因為只有當(dāng)每個人都過上和平、富足的生活,世界才能成為大家的樂園.

i am truly delighted to be at the tsinghua university today.
you are a world class institution. you are a symbol of success of china’s education sector.
you are the foundation for china’s economic miracle. you have produced great leaders,including president _i.
it is not surprising that china’s economic growth and its new leadership in research, science andtechnology have taken place together.
i particularly like the old chinese saying, if you think in terms of a year, plant a seed; if youthink in terms of ten years, plant trees; if you think in terms of 100 years, teach the people.
in india, too, the ancient saying is vyaye krate vardhate eva nityam, vidhya dhanam sarva dhanpradhanam
the wealth that increases by giving, that wealth is knowledge and is supreme of allpossessions.
this is one e_ample of how our two nations are united in their timeless wisdom.
there is much more, though, that links our two ancient civilizations.
i began my journey in china in _ian. in doing so, i retraced the footsteps of the chinese monk_uanzang.
he travelled to india from _ian in the seventh century in search of knowledge and returned to_ian as a friend and chronicler of india.
president _i’s visit in india last september started from ahmedabad. it is not far fromvadnagar, my birthplace, but important, because it hosted _uanzang and many pilgrims fromchina.
the world’s first large scale educational e_change programme took place between india andchina during the tang dynasty.
records talk of about 80 indian monks coming to china and nearly 150 chinese monksreturning after their education in india. and yes, this was in the 10th and 11th century.
mumbai’s rise as a port and a shipbuilding centre is because of cotton trade with china.
and, those who love silk and te_tiles know that india’s famous tanchoi sarees owe themselves tothree brothers from my state of gujarat who learnt the art of weaving from chinese masters inthe 19th century.
and, in an unquestionable evidence of our ancient trade, silk in our classical sanskritlanguage is called cinapatta.
so, the centuries-old story of our relations has been of spiritualism, learning, art and trade.
it is a picture of respect for each other’s civilisation and of shared prosperity.
it is reflected in the human values of dr. dwarkanath kotnis, a doctor from india, who treatedsoldiers in china during the second world war.
today, after difficult and sometimes dark passages of history, india and china stand at a raremoment of vast and multiple transitions in the world.
perhaps, the most significant change of this era is the re-emergence of china and india.
the world’s two most populous nations are undergoing economic and social transformationon a scale and at a speed that is unmatched in history.
china’s success over the past three decades has changed the character of the global economy.
india is now the ne_t frontier of the economic revolution.
we have the demography for it. about 800 million people in india are below the age of 35years. their aspirations, energy, enterprise and skills will be the force for india’s economictransformation.
we now have the political mandate and the will to make it happen.
over the past year, we have moved with a clear and coherent vision. and, we have acted withspeed, resolve and boldness to implement it.
we have taken sweeping steps to reform our policies and open up more to foreign directinvestments. this includes new areas like insurance, construction, defence and railways.
we are eliminating unnecessary regulations and simplifying our procedures. we are usingdigital technology to eliminate multiple approvals and endless wait.

we are scaling up investments in ne_t generation infrastructure – roads, ports, railways,airports, telecom, digital networks and clean energy.
our resources are being allocated with speed and transparency. and, we will make sure thatland acquisition does not become a barrier to growth or a burden on farmers.
we are creating the global skill pool to establish a modern economy with a world classmanufacturing sector.
we are reviving our agriculture sector to restore the fortunes of our farmers and boost ourgrowth.
like china, urban renewal is both a necessity and a means to add energy to our economy.
we are combining traditional strategies with modern economic instruments to eliminatepoverty and create security for the poor.

we have set time bound goals for providing access to housing, water and sanitation for all.
this won’t just transform lives, but also generate a new source of economic momentum.
in recent years, we have deepened our political engagement. we have kept our borderspeaceful. we have managed our differences and not allowed them to impede closercooperation. we have enhanced our cooperation across the full spectrum of ourrelationship.
yet, if we have to realise the e_traordinary potential of our partnership, we must alsoaddress the issues that lead to hesitation and doubts, even distrust, in our relationship.
first, we must try to settle the boundary question quickly.
we both recognise that this is history’s legacy. resolving it is our shared responsibility to thefuture. we must move ahead with new purpose and determination.
the solution we choose should do more than settle the boundary question.
it should do so in a manner that transforms our relationship and not cause new disruptions.
we have been remarkably successful in maintaining peace and tranquility along the border.
we must continue to do that on the principle of mutual and equal security.
our agreements, protocols and border mechanisms have been helpful.
but, a shadow of uncertainty always hangs over the sensitive areas of the border region.
it is because neither side knows where the line of actual control is, in these areas.
that is why i have proposed resuming the process of clarifying it. we can do this withoutprejudice to our position on the boundary question.
we should think of creative solutions to issues that have become irritants – from visa policiesto trans-border rivers.
sometimes, small steps can have a deep impact on how our people see each other.
we are both increasing our engagement in our shared neighbourhood. this calls for deeperstrategic communication to build mutual trust and confidence.
we must ensure that our relationships with other countries do not become a source of concernfor each other. and, wherever possible and feasible, we should work together, as we did inresponding to the earthquake in nepal.
if the last century was the age of alliances, this is an era of inter-dependence. so, talks ofalliances against one another have no foundation.
in any case, we are both ancient civilizations, large and independent nations. neither of us canbe contained or become part of anyone’s plans.
so, our partnership in international forums should not be determined by the concerns ofothers, but the interests of our two countries.
china’s support for india’s permanent membership of a reformed un security council, andfor india’s membership of e_port control regimes like nuclear suppliers group will do morethan just strengthen our international cooperation.
it will take our relationship to a new level.
it will give asia a stronger voice in the world.
if we are able to deepen mutual trust and confidence, we will also be able to reinforce eachother’s efforts of connecting asia with itself and rest of the world.
our soldiers face each other on the border, but we should also deepen our defence andsecurity cooperation to address our many common challenges.
above all, as we look ahead, we must build more bridges of familiarity and comfort betweenour people.
about 33% of the world’s population is either indian or chinese. yet, our people know verylittle of each other.
we must seek inspiration from the pilgrims of the ancient times, who braved the unknown insearch of knowledge, and enriched us both.
so, we have decided to e_tend electronic tourist visas to chinese nationals. we are celebratingthe “year of india” in china in 2024. we are launching the ‘provincial and state leaders forum’today.
later today, we will have the yoga-taichi event. it will represent the coming together of our twocivilizations.
we are starting the gandhi and india study centre in fudan university and a college of yoga inkunming.
the second route to kailash mansarovar for indian pilgrims will start in june, for which i wantto thank president _i.
these are just some of the many steps india and china are taking to bring the world’s twolargest populations in closer contact.
for this reason, i chose to speak today at a university.
because it is the youth that will inherit the future of our countries and the responsibility for ourrelationship.
president _i has spoken eloquently about the inter-connected dreams of china and india andthe new type of relationship between major countries.
not only are our dreams inter-connected, our future is also deeply inter- connected.
we are at a moment, when we have the opportunity to make our choices.
india and china are two proud civilizations and two great nations that will fulfill their destinies.
we each have the strength and the will to choose our own paths to success.
but, we have the ancient wisdom to know that our journey will be smoother and our futurebrighter, when we will walk together, confident of one another, and in step with each other.
thank you very much and thanks for your invitation, thanks a lot.

good afternoon ,ladies and gentlemen!
i’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! to begin with ,i want to ask a question .does everybody dream a good dream last night? actually ,today i want to talk about dream with you. of course, what i want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream—— about life.
everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners(水手),we can chart our course by them. with the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.with the dream, there is hope,with hope, we have the strength to fight.
but i know,life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead .
young!fortunately, i am young now. just due to it, i know that nothing is impossible.i firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. if
i can't realize my dream,it result from that i haven't work harder enough and i won't find other e_cuses. if no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. if you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
'my breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains.' at some time in the past i also had am bitious words and i had some achievements. each achievement results from my hard work. i always believe that 'if you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder.'
in some e_tent, the dream is the hope. if you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. so my dear friends, think of your old and maybe dead dreams. whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today. let's--- move ----out!
thank you for your listening!

英語演講稿3分鐘大學(xué)一
honorable judges, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen:
it is a great honor and pleasure to be here on this beautiful saturday morning to share with you my sentiments about life and passion for the english language.
about a year and a half ago, i took part in my very first english speech contest. when i stood before the microphone with all eyes starring directly at me, i could hardly speak. i stood there, embarrassed and helpless, struggling in vain for the right thing to say. my fears had paralyzed me.
while my passion for english has never changed, i lost my courage to speak in public. when my professor again encouraged me to take part in this competition, i said “no.” i couldn’t endure yet another painful e_perience. he looked me straight in the eye and said something that pierced my heart. i will never forget his words. “look,” he said, “we all have our fears, and you have yours. you could twist your ankle in a basketball game, but then be afraid to ever play again. running away can never dispel your fears, but action will. a winner is not one who never fails,but one who never quits.”
i spent a whole day with his words twisting and turning in my mind. then i made the bravest and wisest decision of my life: i would face my fears – and take part in the competition!
as it turned out, my dear old professor was right. now, here i am, once again standing before a microphone. my heart is beating fast, and my mouth is dry, but most importantly, i have faced my fears -- and that makes all the difference!
thank you.

good morning, everyone ! before we start our speech, let me ask you a question. what do you believe in? of course, different people may have different answers. some may choose hard word; some may believe money is everything; others may think that nothing is more important than power. but in my opinion, honesty is the best policy. this is also the topic of our speech today.
honesty is a good virtue, it means speaking the truth and being fair and upright in act. those who lie and cheat are dishonest. those who get good grades , not by hard work, but by other means are also dishonest.
honesty is the most important. no matter what you do, if you are honest, you will be trusted and respected, but if you lie and cheat, you will be looked down upon by people around. once you lie, even if you speak the truth, people will never believe you. there is a story that the wolf is coming in our china. we should always remember this lesson, and never make the same mistake again.
since honesty is so important, we should try our best to get it , we should speak the truth all the time. we should never make such an e_cuse as "a little dishonest is only a trifle thing." we should get rid of the seed of dishonesty once it is sowed in our minds.
so, let"s to be an honest man. it can make us have much more chances and ways to succeed, and it also makes us happy and gains fame and a lot of praise.
that"s all for today! thank you for your listening!

learn how to say no
we"ve all been taught that we should help people. it is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. it may even win us favors in return. however, we must be realistic. we can"t say yes to every request. if we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. sometimes we simply don"t have the time to help. in this case, we must know how to say no politely.
when we need to say no, here is one method we can try. first, we should tell the truth. if we really can"t do something, we should just say so. second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. we must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. a true friend will understand. finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. it can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. in short, we cannot please everyone all the time. refusing favors is a part of life.

thank you. thank you very, verymuch. thank you. good morning. thank you for ane_traordinarily warm welcome,charlottesville. i am really honored to be here.
senator tim kaine, thank youvery, very much for your generous words of introduction.tim, as he mentioned,has only been on the foreign relations committee, i guess now for atotal of afew weeks, but i can, based on his testimony a moment ago, positively commendhimon his voting record. (laughter and applause.) he’s really – he’s foundhimself new jobsecurity too, because here in virginia you have a single-termgovernor for four years, so he hastraded one single four-year term for asi_-year term with potential e_tension. (laughter.) sogiven the fact that itraded the several e_tensions for a four-year term and then i’m finished,maybehe knows something and i ought to be listening to him. (laughter.) i could learna thingor two from him.
we didn’t overlap for long, but iwant to tell everybody here that we know each other prettywell from service asa lieutenant governor and when he was governor of the state. i waslieutenantgovernor of my state, so we have that in common before being senators.
i’ll tell you a quick story. andi don’t know what you do in virginia as lieutenant governor,but inmassachusetts, once upon a time calvin coolidge was lieutenant governor. and hewas ata dinner party, and his dinner partner turned to him and said, “what doyou do?” and he said, “well, i’m calvin coolidge. i’m lieutenant governor ofmassachusetts.” and she said, “oh wow,that must be really interesting. tell meall about the job.” and he said, “i just did.” (laughter.)so i trust, becausethey embraced you and me, we made something more out of it.
but i have huge admiration forthe path that tim kaine has followed. i know his sense ofwhat america means tothe world was forged in the early days that congressman hurt referredto abouthis missionary work, the catholic missionary working in honduras, just helpingotherpeople to live healthier lives. and i know, because two weeks after theelection, tim called meand he asked if he could serve on the foreign relationscommittee. well, in the senate, i willtell you, you don’t always get thosecalls. people who step forward and volunteer in that way ona committee thatdoesn’t have the opportunity to bring bacon back home and perhaps deliverit aseasy a reelection. so i know that in tim kaine, virginia has a senator who’sgoing to makehis mark on that committee, and he’s going to make the mark foryour commonwealth and ourcountry, and we’re grateful for your service, tim.thank you very, very much. (applause.)
i also am particularly gratefulfor congressman robert hurt being here today. i have leftpartisan politics andit’s wonderful for me to be able to welcome people in the complete spiritofnonpartisanship, not just bipartisan, but nonpartisanship. and i’m particularlygrateful to himfor his service in the state legislature, in both houses, nowin the house, and i’m confidentfrom the words you e_pressed and theconversation we had, you’re going to make yourcontribution too. and i thankyou for your presence here today. (applause.)
president sullivan, thank you somuch for welcoming me here to this historic, remarkablecampus. i just feastedon the view as i walked across the lawn with president sullivan, and ihave tosay you all are very lucky to go to school here. (laughter.) it is an honor tojoin you hereon grounds – (laughter and applause) – this very, very beautifulmonument to the potential ofthe human mind. and i have to tell you, to standhere beneath the gaze of the sages of athens,those thinkers who gave us theidea of democracy, which we obviously still continue to perfect,not only inour own nation but around the world, we are grateful for that.
i will tell you also, i was herea long time ago as an undergraduate. i played lacrosse downon that field overthere against you guys, and my first act of diplomacy is literally to forgetwhowon. i have no idea. i don’t know. (laughter.)
i want to thank the folks inuniform. i want to thank the rotc and all those of you who haveserved and willcontinue to serve in some way for our nation. there is no greater declarationofcitizenship than that, and i happen to believe the word “citizen” is one ofthe most important inthe american le_icon.
some might ask why i’m standinghere at the university of virginia, why am i starting here?a secretary ofstate making his first speech in the united states? you might ask, “doesn’tdiplomacy happen over there, overseas, far beyond the boundaries of ourownbackyards?”
so why is it that i am at thefoot of the blue ridge instead of on the shores of the blacksea? why am i inold cabell hall and not kabul, afghanistan? (laughter.)
the reason is very simple. i camehere purposefully to underscore that in today’s globalworld, there is nolonger anything foreign about foreign policy. more than ever before,thedecisions that we make from the safety of our shores don’t just ripple outward;they alsocreate a current right here in america. how we conduct our foreignpolicy matters more thanever before to our everyday lives, to theopportunities of all those students i met standingoutside, whatever year theyare here, thinking about the future. it’s important not just in termsof thethreats that we face, but the products that we buy, the goods that we sell, andtheopportunity that we provide for economic growth and vitality. it’s not justabout whether we’llbe compelled to send our troops to another battle, butwhether we’ll be able to send ourgraduates into a thriving workforce. that’swhy i’m here today.
i’m here because our lives asamericans are more intertwined than ever before with the livesof people inparts of the world that we may have never visited. in the global challengesofdiplomacy, development, economic security, environmental security, you willfeel our successor failure just as strongly as those people in those othercountries that you’ll never meet. for allthat we have gained in the 21stcentury, we have lost the lu_ury of just looking inward.instead, we look outand we see a new field of competitors. i think it gives us much reason tohope.but it also gives us many more rivals determined to create jobs andopportunities fortheir own people, a voracious marketplace that sometimesforgets morality and values.
i know that some of you and manyacross the country wish that globalization would just goaway, or you wistfullyremember easier times. but, my friends, no politician, no matter howpowerful,can put this genie back in the bottle. so our challenge is to tame the worstimpulsesof globalization even as we harness its ability to spread informationand possibility, to offereven the most remote place on earth the same choicesthat have made us strong and free.
so before i leave this weekend tolisten to our allies and partners ne_t week throughouteurope and the middleeast, and in the coming months across asia, africa, and the americas, iwantedto first talk with you about the challenge that we face here at home, becauseourengagement with the rest of the world begins by making some important choicestogether, andparticularly about our nation’s budget. our sense of sharedresponsibility, that we care aboutsomething bigger than ourselves, isabsolutely central to the spirit of this school. it’s also centralto thespirit of our nation.
as you well know, and dr.sullivan reminded you a moment ago, our first secretary of statefounded thisgreat university. students of his day, when he did, could basically only studylaw ormedicine or religion. that was about it. but thomas jefferson had avision, and he believed thatthe american people needed a public place to learna diversity of disciplines – studies of scienceand space, of flora, fauna, andphilosophy. he built this university in the image of what he called“theillimitable freedom of the human mind.”
today, those of you who studyhere and who teach here, along with the ta_payers,contributors, and parentswho believe in your potential, you are all investing in mr. jefferson’svision.now think for a moment about what that means. why do you spend the many daysandthe borrowed dollars it takes to earn an education here, or anywhere? whydid jefferson wantthis institution to remain public and accessible, not justto virginians but as a destinationfrom everywhere? i know that he wasn’t thinkingjust about your getting a degree and a job. itwas about something more.jefferson believed we couldn’t be a strong country without investingin thekind of education that empowers us to be good citizens. that’s why foundingthisuniversity is among the few accomplishments that jefferson listed on hisepitaph that he wrotefor himself. to him, this place and its goal was a biggerpart of his legacy than serving assecretary of state or even as president,neither of which made the cut.
just as jefferson understood thatwe need to invest in education in order to produce goodcitizens, i joinpresident obama today in asserting with urgency that our citizenry deservesastrong foreign policy to protect our interests in the world. a wise investmentin foreign policycan yield for a nation the same return that education doesfor a student. and no investmentthat we make that is as small as thisinvestment puts forward such a sizeable benefit forourselves and for ourfellow citizens of the world. that’s why i wanted to have thisconversationwith you today, which i hope is a conversation that e_tends well beyondtheborders of charlottesville, well beyond this university, to all americans.
when i talk about a smallinvestment in foreign policy in the united states, i mean it. notso long ago,someone polled the american people and asked, “how big is our internationalaffairsbudget?” most pegged it at 25 percent of our national budget, and theythought it ought to bepared way back to ten percent of our national budget.let me tell you, would that that weretrue. i’d take ten percent in aheartbeat, folks – (laughter) – because ten percent is e_actly tentimesgreater than what we do invest in our efforts to protect america around theworld.
in fact, our whole foreign policybudget is just over one percent of our national budget.think about it a littlebit. over one percent, a little bit more, funds all of our civilian andforeignaffairs efforts – every embassy, every program that saves a child from dirtydrinkingwater, or from aids, or reaches out to build a village, and bringamerica’s values, every person.we’re not talking about pennies on the dollar;we’re talking about one penny plus a bit, on asingle dollar.
so where you think this ideacomes from, that we spend 25 percent of our budget? well, i’lltell you. it’spretty simple. as a recovering politician – (laughter) – i can tell you thatnothinggets a crowd clapping faster in a lot of places than saying, “i’m goingto washington to get themto stop spending all that money over there.” andsometimes they get a lot more specific.
if you’re looking for an applauseline, that’s about as guaranteed an applause line as youcan get. but guesswhat? it does nothing to guarantee our security. it doesn’t guaranteeastronger country. it doesn’t guarantee a sounder economy or a more stable jobmarket. itdoesn’t guarantee that the best interests of our nation are beingserved. it doesn’t guaranteethat another young american man or woman won’t goand lose their life because we weren’twilling to make the right investmentshere in the first place.
we need to say no to the politicsof the lowest common denominator and of simplisticslogans, and start makingreal choices that protect the interests of our country. that’simperative.(applause.)
unfrtunately, the statedepartment doesn’t have our own grover norquist pushing a pledgeto protect it.we don’t have millions of aarp seniors who send in their dues and rally toprotectamerica’s investments overseas. the kids whose lives we’re helping savefrom aids, the womenwe’re helping to free from the horrors of se_ trafficking,the students who, for the first time, canchoose to walk into a school insteadof into a short life of terrorism – their strongest lobbyists arethe rare,committed americans who stand up for them and for the resources that we needtohelp them. and i hope that includes all of you here and many listening.
you understand why. every timethat a tough fiscal choice looms, the easiest place topoint fingers – foreignaid. as ronald reagan said, foreign aid suffers from a lack ofdomesticconstituency, and that’s part of the reason that everyone thinks it costs a lotmore thanit really does. so we need to change that. i reject the e_cuse thatamericans just aren’tinterested in what’s happening outside of their immediatefield of vision. i don’t believe thatabout any one of you sitting here, and idon’t believe that about americans.
in fact, the real domesticconstituency for what we do, if people can see the dots connectedandunderstand what we’re doing in its full measure, is really large. it’s the 314millionamericans whose lives are better every day because of what we do, andwho, deep down, whenthey have time to stop and think about it, know that ourinvestment abroad actually makesthem and our nation safer.
now, my friends, in this age,when a shrinking world clashes with calls for shrinking budgets– and we’re notalone – it’s our job to connect those dots, to connect them for theamericanpeople between what we do over there and the size of the difference that itmakes overhere at home, why the price of abandoning our global efforts wouldbe e_orbitant, and whythe vacuum we would leave by retreating within ourselveswill quickly be filled by those whoseinterests differ dramatically from ours.
we learned that lesson in thedeserts of mali recently, in the mountains of afghanistan in2024, and in thetribal areas of pakistan even today. just think: today’s first-years here atuvawere starting the second grade when a small cabal of terrorists halfwayaround the worldshattered our sense of security and our stability, ourskylines. so i know that you certainlyhave always understood that bad thingshappening over there threaten us right here.
knowing that, the question isthis: how do we, together, make clear that the opposite is justas true; thatif we do the right things, the good things, the smart things over there, itwillstrengthen us here at home?
let me tell you my answer: ibelieve we do this in two ways. first, it’s about telling the storyof how westand up for american jobs and businesses – pretty practical, prettystraightforward,and pretty real on a day-to-day basis. and second, it’s abouthow we stand up for our americanvalues, something that has alwaysdistinguished america.
i agree with president obama thatthere is nothing in this current budget fight thatrequires us to make baddecisions, that forces us to retrench or to retreat. this is a time tocontinueto engage for the sake of the safety and the economic health of our country.this is notoptional. it is a necessity. the american people understand this, ibelieve. our businessesunderstand this. it’s simple. the more they sellabroad, the more they’re going to hire here athome. and since 95 percent ofthe world’s customers live outside of our country, we can’thamstring our ownability to compete in those increasingly growing markets.
virginia understands this as wellas any state in the union. senator kaine, i know, when agovernor, took thosetrips to try to make this happen. international trade supports more thanamillion jobs right here in virginia – more than one in five jobs in virginia,which actually todayis the story of america.
you have a company up near dullescalled orbital sciences corporation. with the help of thepersistent advocatesof our embassy in bangkok, it beat out french and russian competitors tobuildthailand’s newest broadcast satellite. virginia’s orbital is now teaming upwith a californiacompany called space e_ploration technologies that makessatellite equipment. the deal thatour embassy helped secure, valued at $160million, goes right back into american communitiesfrom coast to coast. that’sthe difference that our embassies abroad actually can make back hereat home.
and these success stories happenin partnership with countries all over the world because ofthe resources thatwe’ve deployed to bring business and jobs back to america. theseinvestments,my friends, are paying for themselves. we create more than 5,000 jobs foreverybillion dollars of goods and services that we e_port. so the last thing that weshould do issurrender this kind of leverage.
these successes are happening incanada, where state department officers there got a localautomotive firm toinvest tens of millions of dollars in michigan, where the americanautoindustry is now making a remarkable comeback.
in indonesia where, thanks toembassy jakarta, that nation’s largest privately run airlinejust placed anorder for commercial aircraft, the largest order boeing has ever been askedtofill. meanwhile, the indonesian state railroad is buying its locomotives fromgeneral electric.
in south africa, where more than600 u.s. companies are doing business, and where opic,the overseas privateinvestment corporation, and the e_port-import bank, and the tradeanddevelopment agency just opened an office to help close more investment dealsbetweenamerican companies and africa’s booming energy and transportationsectors, it’s also a two-waystreet. a major south african energy company isplanning to build a multibillion-dollar plant inlouisiana that will put moreamericans to work.
let me tell you, this ishappening, in cameroon and bosnia and other surprising places. inthe shadowsof world war ii, if you told someone that japan and germany would today beourfourth- and fifth-largest trading partners, someone would have thought you werecrazy.before ni_on’s bold opening with china, no one could have imagined thattoday it would be oursecond-largest trading partner, but that’s e_actly what’shappened.
eleven of our top 15 tradingpartners used to be the beneficiaries of u.s. foreignassistance. that’sbecause our goal isn’t to keep a nation dependent on us forever. it’spreciselyto create these markets, to open these opportunities, to establish rule of law.our goalis to use assistance and development to help nations realize their ownpotential, develop theirown ability to govern and become our economic partners.
one of america’s most incrediblerealities continues to be that we are a country without anypermanent enemies.now, take vietnam. i will never forget standing ne_t to john mccain in theeastroom of the white house, each of us on either side of president clinton as heannounced theonce unthinkable normalization of our relations with vietnam, aneffort that john mccain andi worked on for about ten years, try to bringabout.
in the last decade, thanks inlarge part to the work of usaid, our e_ports to vietnamincreased by more than700 percent. every one of those percentage points are jobs here inamerica. andin the last two decades, a thousand vietnamese students and scholars havestudiedand taught in america through the fulbright program, including theforeign minister ofvietnam, who i just talked to the other day and who,believe me, has feelings about americabecause of that engagement.
the list goes on. as the emergingmiddle class in india, the world’s largest democracy,buys our products, thatmeans jobs and income for our own middle class. as our traditionalassistanceto brazil decreases, trade there is increasing. brazil is one of the new tigersgrowing ata double-digit pace, and it supports additional jobs here at home,many in the u.s. travel andtourism industry.
when jefferson e_panded ourconsular posts precisely to promote trade, he never couldhave imagined theimportance today. nor could he have predicted the number of americansabroadthat we help with their passports, with visas, with other problems that arise.or that wehelp offer, to those who want to grow their families throughadoption, or who find themselves inlegal trouble or distress far from home. orthe role our diplomats play, screening potentialsecurity threats and takingthem off the radar screen before they ever reach yourconsciousness,potentially in the worst ways. or that we create a new american job forevery65 visitors that we help to bring to our shores.
so, my friends, we have to keepgoing. we can’t afford the kind of delay and disruption thatstands on thehorizon in washington. the e_citing new trade negotiation that presidentobamaannounced last week between the united states and the european union willcreate theworld’s biggest bilateral deal when it comes to fruition, atransatlantic partnership that willmatch the scope and ambition of ourtrans-pacific partnership talks.
but our work is far from over.seven of the ten fastest growing countries are on the africancontinent. andchina, understanding that, is already investing more than we do there. fourofthe five biggest oil and natural gas discoveries happened off the coast ofmozambique last yearalone. developing economies are the epicenters of growth,and they are open for business, andthe united states needs to be at thattable.
if we want a new list ofassistance graduates, countries that used to take our aid but nowbuy oure_ports, we can’t afford to pull back. and if we’re going to seize this budgetcrisis as thegreat opportunity that it can be, we can’t shy away from tellingthis story to the americanpeople, to your members of congress, and to theworld.
but let me emphasize: jobs andtrade are not the whole story, and nor should they be. thegood work of thestate department, of usaid, is measured not only in the value of thedollar,but it’s also measured in our deepest values. we value security and stabilityin otherparts of the world, knowing that failed states are among our greatestsecurity threats, and newpartners are our greatest assets.
the investments that we makesupport our efforts to counter terrorism and violente_tremism wherever itflourishes. and we will continue to help countries provide their ownsecurity,use diplomacy where possible, and support those allies who take the fighttoterrorists.
and remember – boy, i can’temphasize this enough; i’m looking at a soldier here in front ofme with aribbon on his chest – deploying diplomats today is much cheaper thandeployingtroops tomorrow. we need to remember that. (applause.) as senator lindseygrahamsaid, “it’s national security insurance that we’re buying.”
now,it sounds e_pensive, myfriends, but simple bottom line, it’s not. the statedepartment’s conflictstabilization budget is about $60 million a year now. that’s how much themovie“the avengers” took in on a single sunday last may. (laughter.) the differenceis the folksthat we have on the ground doing this job are actually realsuperheroes.
we value human rights, and weneed to tell the story of america’s good work there, too. weknow that the mosteffective way to promote the universal rights of all people, rightsandreligious freedom, is not from the podium, not from either end of pennsylvaniaavenue. it’sfrom the front lines – wherever freedom and basic human dignityare denied. and that’s whattim kaine understood when he went to honduras.
the brave employees of state andusaid – and the diplomatic security personnel whoprotect the civilians servingus overseas – work in some of the most dangerous places on earth,and they doit fully cognizant that we share stronger partnerships with countries thatshare ourcommitment to democratic values and human rights. they fightcorruption in nigeria. theysupport the rule of law in burma. they support democraticinstitutions in kyrgyzstan andgeorgia, mindful from our own e_perience that ittakes a long time to get democracy right, andthat it rarely happens rightaway.
in the end, all of those efforts,all of that danger and risk that they take, makes us moresecure. and we dovalue democracy, just as you’ve demonstrated here at uva throughthepresidential precinct program that’s training leaders in emerging democracies.
thanks to a decade of intensivediplomatic efforts alongside our partners, a conflict thattook more than 2million lives – and people think about the holocaust, 6 million over thecourseof world war ii, we lost 2 million people in the longest war in africa in ourtime in the lastyears. and of that south sudan was born a free nation. securingits future and peace for all ofits citizens is going to take continueddiplomatic efforts alongside partners like the african union.and the more wecan develop the capacity of the african union, the less the united stateswillhave to worry.
i’ve stood in south sudan. i’veseen those challenges firsthand, and they still face theworld’s newest countryand its government. those challenges threaten to reverse hard-wonprogress andstability. and that’s why we’re working closely with that nation to help itprovide itsown citizens with essential services like water, health, andeducation and agriculture practices.
we value health and nutrition,and the principle of helping people gain strength to helpthemselves. throughcornerstone initiatives like feed the future, we help countries not onlyplantand harvest better food, but we also help them break the cycle of poverty, ofpoornutrition, and of hunger.
we seek to reduce maternalmortality, eradicate polio, and protect people from malaria,tuberculosis, andpandemic influenza. and i will tell you proudly that through the globalhealthinitiative and programs that i was proud to have a hand in helping to create,like pepfar,we have saved the lives of 5 million people in africa through theefforts of americans. today… (applause.) and today – today astonishingly – weare standing on the edge of the potential ofan aids-free generation, becausewe know these diseases don’t discriminate by nationality,and we believe thatrelieving preventable suffering doesn’t need a justification. and ithinkthat’s part of our values.
we value gender equality, knowingthat countries are, in fact, more peaceful andprosperous when women and girlsare afforded full rights and equal opportunity. (applause.) inthe last decade,the proportion of african_ women enrolled in higher education went fromnearlyzero to 20 percent. in 2024, there were fewer than a million boys in afghanschools andbarely any girls. now, with america’s help, more than a third ofthe almost 8 million studentsgoing to school in afghanistan are girls. andmore than a quarter of their representatives inparliament are women. we shouldbe proud of that, and that helps to make a difference for thelong haul.
we value education, promotingprograms like the fulbright e_changes managed by thedepartment of state. theyenable the most talented citizens to share their devotion todiplomacy andpeace, their hopes, their friendships, and the belief that all of the earth’ssonsand daughters ought to have the opportunity to lift themselves up. todaythese e_changesbring hundreds of thousands of students to america from othercountries, and vice versa. in thelast year alone, more than 10,000 citizens offoreign countries participated in the statedepartment’s academic, youth,professional and cultural e_change programs right here invirginia. virginiansalso studied abroad through state department programs. senator fulbright,atwhose hearings i had the privilege of testifying as a young veteran returning fromvietnam,he knew that the value of sharing our proudest values bore fruit inthe long run, in the future.he said, “having people who understand yourthought,” he said, “is much greater securitythan another submarine.”
let me be very clear. foreign assistanceis not a giveaway. it’s not charity. it is aninvestment in a strong americaand in a free world. foreign assistance lifts other people up andthenreinforces their willingness to link arms with us in common endeavors. and whenwe helpothers crack down on corruption, that makes it easier for our owncompliance againstcorruption, and it makes it easier for our companies to dobusiness as well.
when we join with other nationsto reduce the nuclear threat, we build partnerships thatmean we don’t have tofight those battles alone. this includes working with our partners aroundtheworld in making sure that iran never obtains a weapon that would endanger ourallies andour interests. when we help others create the space that they needto build stability in theirown communities, we’re actually helping bravepeople build a better, more democratic future,and making sure that we don’tpay more later in american blood and treasure.
the stories that we need to tell,of standing up for american jobs and businesses andstanding up for ouramerican values, intersect powerfully in the opportunity that we have nowinthis moment of urgency to lead on the climate concerns that we share with ourglobalneighbors. we as a nation must have the foresight and the courage tomake the investmentsnecessary to safeguard the most sacred trust we keep forour children and our grandchildren,and that is an environment not ravaged byrising seas, deadly superstorms, devastatingdroughts, and the other hallmarksof a dramatically changing climate. president obama iscommitted to movingforward on that, and so am i, and so must you be ready to join us inthateffort. (applause.)
can we all say thank you to oursigners who are here? (applause.)
so think about all these things thati’ve listed. think about the world as you see it today.let’s face it: we areall in this one together. no nation can stand alone. we share nothingsocompletely as our planet. when we work with others, large and small, to developand deploythe clean technologies that will power a new world – and they’rethere waiting for us, $6 trillionmarket, huge amount of jobs – when we dothat, we know we’re helping create the new marketsand new opportunities foramerica’s second-to-none innovators and entrepreneurs so that wecan succeed inthe ne_t great revolution in our marketplace. we need to commit ourselvestodoing the smart thing and the right thing and to truly take on this challenge,because if wedon’t rise to meet it, then rising temperatures and rising sealevels will surely lead to rising costsdown the road. ask any insurancecompany in america. if we waste this opportunity, it may bethe only thing ourgeneration – generations – are remembered for. we need to find the couragetoleave a far different legacy.
we cannot talk about theunprecedented changes happening on our planet, moreover,without also talkingabout the unprecedented changes in its population, another greatopportunity atour fingertips. in countries across north africa and the middle east, themajorityof people are younger than 30 years old – 60 percent under 30, 50percent under 21, 40 percentunder 18, about half of the total under 20. andyou know what? they seek the sameopportunities and the same things that youdo: opportunity. we have an interest in helpingthese young people to developthe skills that they need to defeat the mass unemploymentthat is overwhelmingtheir societies so that they can in fact start contributing totheircommunities and rebuild their broken economies rather than engaging in someotherterrorist or other kind of e_tremist activity. for the first time inhuman history, young peoplearound the world act as a global cohort, includingmany of the people in this room. they’remore open-minded. they’re moreproficient with the technology that keeps them connected in away that nogeneration in history has ever been before. we need to help all of them, andus, touse this remarkable network in a positive way.
now, some may say not now, notwhile we have our budget; it’s too e_pensive. well, believeme, my friends,these challenges will not get easier with time. there is no pause button onthefuture. we cannot choose when we would like to stop and restart our globalresponsibility orsimply wait until the calendar says it’s more convenient.it’s not easy, but responding is theamerican thing to do. and i’ll tell you,it’s worth it.
our relatively small investmentin these programs – programs which advance peace,security, and stabilityaround the world, which help american companies compete abroad,which createjobs here at home by opening new markets to american goods, whichsupportamerican citizens abroad, help them when they need it the most, which fosterstablesocieties and save lives by fighting disease and hunger, which defendthe universal rights of allpeople and advance freedom and dignity anddevelopment around the world, which bringpeople together and nations together,and forge partnerships to address problems thattranscend the separation of oceansand borders on land, which protect our planet for ourchildren and theirchildren, and which give hope to a new generation of interconnectedworldcitizens – our investment in all of those things cost us, as i just mentioned,about onepenny of every dollar we invest. america, you will not find a betterdeal anywhere.
now, i’m particularly aware thatin many ways, the greatest challenge to america’s foreignpolicy today is inthe hands not of diplomats, but of policymakers in congress. it is oftensaidthat we cannot be strong at home if we’re not strong in the world, but in thesedays of alooming budget sequester that everyone actually wants to avoid – ormost – we can’t bestrong in the world unless we are strong at home. mycredibility as a diplomat working to helpother countries create order isstrongest when america, at last, puts its own fiscal house inorder, and thathas to be now. (applause.)
think about it. it’s hard to tellthe leadership of any number of countries that they have toresolve theireconomic issues if we don’t resolve our own. let’s reach a responsibleagreementthat prevents these senseless cuts. let’s not lose this opportunitybecause of politics.
as i’ve said many times before,america is not e_ceptional simply because we say we are.we are e_ceptionalbecause we do e_ceptional things, both where there are problems as wellaswhere there is promise, both where there is danger as well as where there isdemocracy. i amoptimistic that we will continue to do these e_ceptionalthings. i know we have the capacity. iknow that’s who we are, and it’s whowe’ve always been.
as we ask where our ne_t stepsshould fall on this path, we would do well to learn a lessonfrom our ownhistory. in the aftermath of world war ii and its great toll, america had thechoice,just like we do today, to turn inward. instead, secretary of stategeorge marshall saw in bothdefeated and allied nations the threat ofbankruptcy, homes and railways destroyed, people whowere starving, economiesdecimated.
he had the foresight to know thatthere could be no political stability and no peacewithout renewed economicstrength. he knew we had an obligation to partner with europe,help it rebuild,modernize it, and give it the push that it needed to become the powerfulandpeaceful trading partner it is today. after the war, my friends, we didn’tspike the football;we created a more level playing field, and we are strongerfor it today.
when i was 12 years old, i hadthe privilege of living in berlin, germany, where my father,a foreign serviceofficer, was called to duty. and one day, i visited the eastern side of berlin,thepart that hadn’t received any of the help from the united states and itscourageous marshallplan.
the difference was undeniable,even to my 12-year-old eyes. there were few people on thestreets, few smileson the faces of those who were there. i saw the difference between hopeanddespair, freedom and oppression, people who were given a chance to do somethingandpeople who weren’t. if the recovering western half of urope was regainingits vibrant color, theplace that i visited was still in black and white.
when i went back to west berlin,two things happened. first, i was summarily groundedfor having venturedwithout permission to the other side of the city. (laughter.) and second,istarted to pay special attention to the plaques on the buildings thatrecognized the unitedstates of america for lending a hand in the rebuilding.and i was proud.
the marshall plan, the imf, theworld bank, and other postwar organizations led by theunited states areevidence of our ability to make the right decisions at the right time,takingrisks today in the interest of tomorrow.
now we face a similar crossroads.we can be complacent, or we can be competitive. asnew markets bloom in everycorner of the globe – and they will, with or without us – we can bethere tohelp plant the seeds, or we can cede that power to others.
given the chance to lead a secondgreat american century, let’s not just look to the globallandscape around ustoday; let’s look to the one ahead of us, look over the horizon, look tothedays to come 15 and 50 years from now, and marshal the courage that defined themarshallplan so that we might secure a new future of freedom.
let’s remember that theprinciples of jefferson’s time, in a nation that was just getting usedto itsindependence, still echo in our own time, in a world that’s still getting usedto ourinterdependence. america’s national interest in leading strongly stillendures in this world.
so let me leave you with athought. when tragedy and terror visit our neighbors around theglobe, whetherby the hand of man or by the hand of god, many nations give of themselvestohelp. but only one is e_pected to.
with the leadership of presidentobama and the cooperation i will work hard to securefrom the congress, we willcontinue to lead as the indispensable nation, not because we seekthis role,but because the world needs us to fill it. not as a choice, but as a charge.not becausewe view it as a burden, but because we know it to be a privilege.
that is what is special about theunited states of america. that is what is special aboutbeing an american. thate_ceptional quality that we share is what i will bring with me on mytravels onyour behalf. but our sense of responsibility cannot be reserved for responsestoemergencies alone. it has to be e_ercised in the pursuit of preventingdisaster, of strengtheningalliances, of building markets, of promotinguniversal rights, and standing up for our values.
over the ne_t four years, i askyou to stand with our president and our country to continueto conductourselves with the understanding that what happens over there matters righthere,and it matters that we get this right.
thank you. (applause.)

stepping into the new century environment pollution has become more serious than ever since. there are different kinds of pollution. such as water pollution air pollution and noise pollution and so on. it seems that we live on a planet which is full of pollution. where all these pollution comes from? to a large e_tend the environmental destruction is the heavy price that we pay for the rapid development of economy and the growing population. in order to have more fuel people cut down trees and dig more corals. but the growing needs for energy are hardly to meet. countless private cars on the street the gas stations are short of gasoline even the government has raise the price so many times in order to control the needs of gasoline but it’s still not working. overusing the natural resources has already affected the ecological balance. however the factories still release the to_ic air into the sky and the polluted water into the rivers. people still lack of the conscious of protecting the environment. i think it’s time for all of us to do something.
進(jìn)入新世界以來,環(huán)境污染比任何時候都要嚴(yán)峻。有各式各樣的污染:水污染,空氣污染,噪音污染等等。看起來我們活著一個四周都是污染源的星球。那么,這些污染是從何而來的呢?在很大程度上,環(huán)境被破壞就是我們?yōu)榭焖俚慕?jīng)濟增長和人口增加所付出的慘烈代價。為了得到更多的能源,人們砍伐樹木,挖更多的煤礦,但是還是難以維持日益增長的需求。不計其數(shù)的私家車充斥著公路,加油站的汽油嚴(yán)重短缺,政府多次上調(diào)油價也未能阻止私家車對汽油的需求。自然資源的過度利用已經(jīng)影響到了生態(tài)平衡。然而,工廠依舊向外排放有毒氣體,把工業(yè)廢水倒入河里。人們依舊缺乏保護(hù)環(huán)境的意識。我認(rèn)為人們應(yīng)該做些事情了。
the government should put forward some more strict laws to prevent the environment from being further polluted. and they should let people know more about the importance of environment protection. and we should find the balance between the economic growth and environmental protection. plant more trees in the deserts and stop cutting down the forest. forbid the factories to pour the waste water into the rivers directly. encourage people to use public transportations to work. both government and ordinary people should join hands together to make our home clean and fresh again. only in this way our earth could be a better place to live in.
政府應(yīng)該施行一些更為嚴(yán)格的法律來防止環(huán)境被進(jìn)一步的破壞掉。他們應(yīng)該讓人們了解到保護(hù)環(huán)境的重要性。我們要在保持經(jīng)濟發(fā)展和環(huán)境保護(hù)中找到平衡點。在沙漠中植樹造林,停止砍伐森林。禁止工廠往河流里直接排放廢水。鼓勵人們用交通工具上班。政府和普通民眾都應(yīng)該攜手保護(hù)環(huán)境,讓我們的家園變得干凈整潔。只有這樣,我們的地球才能更適合人類居住。

thank you very much president knapp for that kind intro. ale_, trustees, faculty and deans of the university, my fellow honorees, and especially you the class of 2024. yes.
congratulations to you, to your family, to your friends that are attending today"s ceremony. you made it. it"s a privilege, a rare privilege of a lifetime to be with you today. and i think thank you enough for making me an honorary colonial.
before i begin today, they asked me to make a standard announcement. you’ve heard this before. about silencing your phones. those of you with an iphone, just place it in silent mode. if you don"t have an iphone, please pass it to the center aisle. apple has a world?class recycling program.
you know, this is really an amazing place. and for a lot of you, i’m sure that being here in washington, the very center of our democracy, was a big draw when you were choosing which school to go to. this place has a powerful pull. it was here that dr. martin luther king challenged americans to make real the promises of democracy, to make justice a reality for all of god"s children.
and it was here that president ronald reagan called on us to believe in ourselves and to believe in our capacity to perform great deeds. i"d like to start this morning by telling you about my first visit here. in the summer of 1977 ?? yes, i’m a little old ?? i was 16 years old and living in robertsdale, the small town in southern alabama that i grew up in. at the end of my junior year of high school i’d won an essay contest sponsored by the national rural electric association. i can"t remember what the essay was about, what i do remember very clearly is writing it by hand, draft after draft after draft. typewriters were very e_pensive and my family could not afford one.
i was one of two kids from baldwin county that was chosen to go to washington along with hundreds of other kids across the country. before we left, the alabama delegation took a trip to our state capitol in montgomery for a meeting with the governor. the governor"s name was george c. wallace. the same george wallace who in 1963 stood in the schoolhouse door at the university of alabama to block african americans from enrolling. wallace embraced the evils of segregation. he pitted whites against blacks, the south against the north, the working class against the so?called elites. meeting my governor was not an honor for me.
my heroes in life were dr. martin luther king, and robert f. kennedy, who had fought against the very things that wallace stood for. keep in mind, that i grew up, or, when i grew up, i grew up in a place where king and kennedy were not e_actly held in high esteem. when i was a kid, the south was still coming to grips with its history. my te_tbooks even said the civil war was about states’ rights. they barely mentioned slavery.
so i had to figure out for myself what was right and true. it was a search. it was a process. it drew on the moral sense that i’d learned from my parents, and in church, and in my own heart, and led me on my own journey of discovery. i found books in the public library that they probably didn"t know they had. they all pointed to the fact that wallace was wrong. that injustices like segregation had no place in our world. that equality is a right.
as i said, i was only 16 when i met governor wallace, so i shook his hand as we were e_pected to do. but shaking his hand felt like a betrayal of my own beliefs. it felt wrong. like i was selling a piece of my soul.
from montgomery we flew to washington. it was the first time i had ever been on an airplane. in fact it was the first time that i traveled out of the south. on june 15, 1977, i was one of 900 high schoolers greeted by the new president, president jimmy carter, on the south lawn of the white house, right there on the other side of the ellipse. i was one of the lucky ones, who got to shake his hand. carter saw baldwin county on my name tag that day and stopped to speak with me. he wanted to know how people were doing after the rash of storms that struck alabama that year. carter was kind and compassionate; he held the most powerful job in the world but he had not sacrificed any of his humanity. i felt proud that he was president. and i felt proud that he was from the south. in the space of a week, i had come face to face with two men who guaranteed themselves a place in history. they came from the same region. they were from the same political party. they were both governors of adjoining states. but they looked at the world in very different ways. it was clear to me, that one was right, and one was wrong. wallace had built his political career by e_ploiting divisions between us. carter"s message on the other hand, was that we are all bound together, every one of us. each had made a journey that led them to the values that they lived by, but it wasn"t just about their e_periences or their circumstances, it had to come from within.
my own journey in life was just beginning. i hadn"t even applied for college yet at that point. for you graduates, the process of discovering yourself, of inventing yourself, of reinventing yourself is about to begin in earnest. it"s about finding your values and committing to live by them. you have to find your north star. and that means choices. some are easy. some are hard. and some will make you question everything. twenty years after my visit to washington, i met someone who made me question everything. who upended all of my assumptions in the very best way. that was steve jobs.
steve had built a successful company. he had been sent away and he returned to find it in ruins. he didn"t know it at the time, but he was about to dedicate the rest of his life to rescuing it, and leading it to heights greater than anyone could ever imagine. anyone, that is, e_cept for steve. most people have forgotten, but in 1997 and early 1998, apple had been adrift for years. rudderless. but steve thought apple could be great again. and he wanted to know if i’d like to help.
his vision for apple was a company that turned powerful technology into tools that were easy to use, tools that would help people realize their dreams. and change the world for the better. i had studied to be an engineer and earned an m.b.a. i was trained to be pragmatic, a problem solver. now i found myself sitting before and listening to this very animated 40?something guy with visions of changing the world. it was not what i had e_pected. you see, when it came to my career, in 1998, i was also adrift. rudderless.
i knew who i was in my personal life, and i kept my eye on my north star, my responsibility to do good for someone else, other than myself. but at work, well i always figured that work was work. values had their place and, yes, there were things that i wanted to change about the world, but i thought i had to do that on my own time. not in the office. steve didn"t see it that way. he was an idealist. and in that way he reminded me of how i felt as a teenager. in that first meeting he convinced me if we worked hard and made great products, we too could help change the world. and to my surprise, i was hooked. i took the job and changed my life. it"s been 17 years and i have never once looked back.
at apple we believe the work should be more than just about improving your own self. it"s about improving the lives of others as well. our products do amazing things. and just as steve envisioned, they empower people all over the world. people who are blind, and need information read to them because they can"t see the screen. people for whom technology is a lifeline because they are isolated by distance or disability. people who witness target=_blank class=infote_tkey>;witness injustice and want to e_pose it, and now they can because they have a camera in their pocket all the time.
our commitment goes beyond the products themselves to how they’re made. to our impact on the environment. to the role we play in demanding and promoting equality. and in improving education. we believe that a company that has values and acts on them can really change the world. and an individual can too. that can be you. that must be you. graduates, your values matter. they are your north star. and work takes on new meaning when you feel you are pointed in the right direction. otherwise, it"s just a job, and life is too short for that. we need the best and brightest of your generation to lead in government and in business. in the science and in the arts. in journalism and in academia. there is honor in all of these pursuits. and there is opportunity to do work that is infused with moral purpose. you don"t have to choose between doing good and doing well. it"s a false choice, today more than ever.
your challenge is to find work that pays the rent, puts food on the table, and lets you do what is right and good and just.
so find your north star. let it guide you in life, and work, and in your life"s work. now, i suspect some of you aren"t buying this. i won"t take it personally. it"s no surprise that people are skeptical, especially here in washington. where these days you’ve got plenty of reason to be. and a healthy amount of skepticism is fine. though too often in this town, it turns to cynicism. to the idea that no matter who’s talking or what they’re saying, that their motives are questionable, their character is suspect, and if you search hard enough, you can prove that they are lying. maybe that"s just the world we live in. but graduates, this is your world to change.
as i said, i am a proud son of the south. it"s my home, and i will always love it. but for the last 17 years i’ve built a life in silicon valley; it"s a special place. the kind of place where there’s no problem that can"t be solved. no matter how difficult or comple_, that"s part of its essential quality. a very sincere sort of optimism. back in the 90s, apple ran an advertising campaign we called “think different.” it was pretty simple. every ad was a photograph of one of our heroes. people who had the audacity to challenge and change the way we all live. people like gandhi and jackie robinson, martha graham and albert einstein, amelia earhart and miles davis. these people still inspire us. they remind us to live by our deepest values and reach for our highest aspirations. they make us believe that anything is possible. a friend of mine at apple likes to say the best way to solve a problem is to walk into a room full of apple engineers and proclaim, “this is impossible.”
i can tell you, they will not accept that. and neither should you. so that"s the one thing i’d like to bring to you all the way from cupertino, california. the idea that great progress is possible, whatever line of work you choose. there will always be cynics and critics on the sidelines tearing people down, and just as harmful are those people with good intentions who make no contribution at all. in his letter from the birmingham jail, dr. king wrote that our society needed to repent, not merely for the hateful words of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.
the sidelines are not where you want to live your life. the world needs you in the arena. there are problems that need to be solved. injustices that need to be ended. people that are still being persecuted, diseases still in need of cure. no matter what you do ne_t, the world needs your energy. your passion. your impatience with progress. don"t shrink from risk. and tune out those critics and cynics. history rarely yields to one person, but think, and never forget, what happens when it does. that can be you. that should be you. that must be you.
congratulations class of 2024. i’d like to take one photo of you, because this is the best view in the world. and it"s a great one.
thank you very much.

大學(xué)英語演講稿:自信confidence
one of the most popular sentences online states that "remember...always act like you ‘re wearing an invisible crown."what the saying indicates is the importance of confidence,an attitude that we should take toward our life.
it’s generally accepted that confidence plays a very vital role in one’s life. but do you really know what dose self-confidence mean? well, it means that you have strong belief that you can do things and you will succeed in the end. if you want to do something well, you must have faith in yourself. just like the old saying goes, confidence in yourself is the first step on the road to success. otherwise, you may hardly to do anything right. some people love to complain how incapable they are or how difficult their tasks are, they never think about the problem in themselves, which is lack of confidence. if they fail, they will refuse to have another try. then they will never ever have the chance to overcome difficulties.
may be destined to a person"s character, it is not easy to change. but if everyone into confident on their own elements, their life will become more colorful, more open. you may ask why you are confident? i think: confidence + opportunity = success. so self-confidence is indispensable au_iliary conditions. everyone thinks oneself from birth, fate dominate everything, all want to follow the path of destiny. if you have such idea, may be you are wrong. destiny is master in your hand, opportunity is in your side. the you find place, it did not work. don"t let the chance to run out in front of you, the first to catch the opportunities, of course. however, get the opportunities, of course, is a good thing. but people have the opportunity to don"t you will achieve success. some people often suffer from failure tripping, overwhelm be heavy setbacks, let these people thought he was a mediocre person, chance on them. success will become very slim. so have the opportunity is important, the most important thing is that you have confidence. even if you get upset about my setbacks, as long as you have a good mood, have full confidence in myself. believe that failure and frustration on you again, can also be solved. so self-confidence is very important for a person, even if you don"t have too much talent, have the confidence you have into a big step away from success than others. albert einstein said, confidence is to take the first step to success. so people should have confidence, also need confidence in life.
in a word, as a saying says," make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you. "confidence for us is an indispensable part of our life.
大學(xué)英語演講稿:成功與失敗
failure is what often happens.it is everywhere in your life.students may fail in e_ams, science may fail in their researchwork,and athletes may fail in competitions.
although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. some people don"t think their failure is a very important thing at all. so they pay no attention to it. as a result, they will have the same failure a previously later.they spend their thime and energy on useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought.
success is not easy to talk about because the word success it-self has hundreds of definitions. for some it means power, for some it means wealth, for others it is fame or great achieve-ments. but i have my own understanding of it.
success means to try your best.
many people believe that success means to win. in my opin-ion, it means to try your best when you do everything, no matter you will win or not. when you are taking part in a long-distance race, if you keep on running as fast as you can, you are successful, although you may be the last to pass the finishing-line. because you have showed your best to others, and you have made i your greatest effort to be the winner.
success means to work hard.
no one can succeed without any hard work. karl ma_ was successful, because he spent more than 30 years writing the book "communist manifesto"; tomas edison succeeded, because he had e_perimented thousands of times to find the best material for lights. every success calls for hard work. if you want to suc-ceed, work hard first.
other people are quite different from the two kinds of people mentiond above. instend of being distressed and lost,they draw a lesson from every failure and become more e_perienced. after hard work, they will be successful in the end. it is said that failure is the mother of success. success will be gained after times of failures so long as we are good at drawong lesson from our failures.
in my opinion , failure is not a bad thing , the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even lose our heart after failure.
more importantly, today, the world is undergoing fast rhythm of changing, some issues occur in one way this time and reoccur in another way that time.such instability and inconstancy make many long-time-lasting conventions and traditions not valid any longer. people encounter pile of new conditions everyday in current society, it is hard to find adequate reference from the wisdom of conventions for all of these new thing, what can really lead people to success is rational mind and creative ways of thinking. to meet the requirement of new missions, only creative activities could give out adaptive strategies. without creative thinking ways, there would no such increasingly development of science and technology in the past two centuries, no new type america-style democracy in the world, no so many products making modern life so comfortable and convenient. creative practices and original idea are the engine of the fast development of modern life, and are most essential for people to accomplish successful achievement in all kinds of fields.
大學(xué)英語演講稿:青春夢
hello everyone! my name is___, a student from_______college. i am glad to give you a speech about my university. the title of my speech is my college, my home.
last september i left my hometown with heavy baggage and after a journey of ten hours, i came to this dream campus with great e_pectation and e_citement.
i was deeply attracted by the elegant environment of our campus the moment i stepped into the university. straight, wide roads enjoyed the shade and shelter provided by lordly, green trees. ancient buildings of great refinement enjoyed the company of flocks of birds flying and singing overhead. scrolls of warm welcome greeted me and volunteers with smiles came to my help. my heart was filled with warmth. yeah, this is the place where i will spend 4 years and this place will be my home!
whenever i recall the past days, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. but what impressed me most is a night when i got a stomachache during the first days. i had to turn to the aunts in charge of our dormitory for help. they were so friendly and warm-hearted. they gave me the pills and reminded me of having more hot water. i recovered soon and i thanked them from the bottom of my heart because they brought me the warmth of home.
our university is a famous academic center. the teaching staff are all learned professors. many of them are world-wide known for their wide range of knowledge and charming personality. i respect my teachers! i admire my teachers! i love my teachers! various activities are carried here. they not only bring me happiness but also improve myself. i meet with a lot of classmates and make a large number of friends. when i feel upset, the will give me a hand; when i am happy, i will share with them. the library has a large collection of books and i always lose myself in it. i believe they will benefit me a lot and are to broaden the roads of my future.

大學(xué)三分鐘英語演講稿(一)
good afternoon ,ladies and gentlemen!
i’m very honored to stand here and give you a short speech! to begin with ,i want to ask a question .does everybody dream a good dream last night? actually ,today i want to talk about dream with you. of course, what i want to talk is not a dream you have last night,but a dream—— about life.
everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners(水手),we can chart our course by them. with the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.with the dream, there is hope,with hope, we have the strength to fight.
but i know,life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead.
young!fortunately, i am young now. just due to it, i know that nothing is impossible.i firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way.
i can't realize my dream,it result from that i haven't work harder enough and i won't find other e_cuses. if no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. if you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
'my breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains.' at some time in the past i also had am bitious words and i had some achievements. each achievement results from my hard work. i always believe that 'if you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder.'
in some e_tent, the dream is the hope. if you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. so my dear friends,think of your old and maybe dead dreams. whatever it is, pick it up and make it alive from today. let's---move---out!
thank you for your listening!

though with time going by,i can still remember what you once told me.you should be a brave girl.smiling,you looked into my eyes.year in,year out,nearly most of my memories are fading little by little.but only this simple sentence remained,without being forgotten in my life.
again and again,i can not stop myself from thinking about it.so ordinary,but so impressive,so moving,just like the brightest sunshine,it helps me go through the darkest night.i am such a sensitive girl in your heart.you said,my sorroful facial e_pression made feel so
distersssed.however,there is one thing i never tell you,that is ,i am becoming a big girl gradually with your words and smiles.i never tell you about it,for i believe oneday,you can see the great changes of mine for yourself.that is what i want to do in return.as i know,that will be the best gift for you.
i suddenly think of a song named my heart will go on.there is a beautiful sentence going like this.you are safe in my heart.more than once,i was moved to tears by it.i know ,i am also safe in your heart.i have already forgotten when i told you i was going to leave for australia this summer holiday.you just smiled as usual,gently speaking.whatever you decide to do,i will be in favor of it,but, just onething,remember,when you fell lonely abroad,do not forget we are heree ,praying for you.we are all around you,far across the distance and space between us.i closed my eyes,the flashback started.the memories we had together,once we played games on the palyground,we played jokes on each other,you always wrote a lot of sentences on my articles to encourage me.and the most unforgetable thing,you told me,you believed m i could be a big girl.sooner or later. at that specific moment,i suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence totally.so on that day,i smiled as you used to,looking at you.the last words i said were,keep walking in sunshine.

柯漢校長邀請我來給畢業(yè)生一些鼓勵。我向諸位保證,你們剛剛給我的鼓勵更多。
this is an incredible place. i have seen it through so many lenses. i saw it when i was agraduate student that didn"t get admitted and then somebody invited me back and said, ok,we"ll change our mind.
這所學(xué)校棒極了!我可從很多方面了解它。我也曾從這里畢業(yè),遺憾的是并沒有申請上研究生。然而一位恩師邀我回來并說:我們改變主意啦,你被錄取了。
and i saw it as a place that hired me back to be on the faculty many years later and gave methe chance to do what anybody wants to do, which is ,follow their passion, follow their heartand do the things they they"re e_cited about.
許多年以后,我被聘回到這里執(zhí)教。這是一個所有人都夢寐以求的機會。在這里,你可以追隨熱情,聽從心靈的召喚,并能夠做自己感到刺激的事。
and the great thing about this university unlike almost all the other ones i know of is thatnobody gets in your way when you try to do it. and that"s just fantastic.
這所學(xué)校勝過其他學(xué)校的地方在于當(dāng)你嘗試實現(xiàn)夢想時,沒有人會阻攔你。這太美妙了!
and to the degree that a human being can love an institution. i love this place and i love all ofthe people and i am very grateful to jerry cohon and everyone else for all the kindness thathave shown me.
我無比的熱愛這所學(xué)校,也愛這里的所有人。我十分感激柯漢校長和我的同事,感謝他們給我的溫暖。
last august i was told that in all likelihood i had three to si_ months left to live. i am onmonth nine now and i am gonna get down and do any push-ups…but there will be a short pick-up basketball game later.
去年8月,我被告知只能再活3到6個月了。可現(xiàn)在已是第九個月了。我想低下身來做俯地挺身(他在人生最后一課時,小試身手,還幽默地說不要同情他,除非也能做那麼多下的俯地挺身)…但一會將有來一小段報隊籃球賽(一般打半場,三對三,先進(jìn)十一分或十五贏)。
somebody said to me, in light of those numbers, wow, so you aer really beating the grimreaper. and what i said without even thinking about is that we don"t beat the reaper by livinglonger. we beat the reaper by living well, and living fully.
當(dāng)我說完前面的那些數(shù)字后,有些人對我說:天啊,你真的戰(zhàn)神了冷酷的死神。而我毫不猶疑的回答他:僅靠多活幾天是不能戰(zhàn)勝死神的。戰(zhàn)勝死神最好的方式是活得好,活得充實。
for the reaper will come for all of us, the question is what do we do between the time we areborn and the time he shows up.
人終會有一死,關(guān)鍵是從出生的那一刻起到死神降臨的這一段時間內(nèi),我們都做了什麼。
"cause he shows up it is too late to do all the things that you"re always gonna kind of "get roundto". so i think the only advice i can give you on how to live your life well is, first off, remember,it"s a cliche, but love cliche, "it is not the things we do in life that we regret on our deathbed,it is the things we do not".
當(dāng)死神降臨時,想要做些我們一直想做而沒時間去做的事,卻已為時晚矣。因此,關(guān)于如何才能活的好,我給大家的唯一建議是,馬上去做,請千萬牢記,雖說這是老生常談,但我喜歡老生常談,"臨終時我們不會后悔做過某些事,而是后悔沒有去做某些事。"
"cause i assure you i"ve done a lot of stupid things and none of them bother me. all themistakes, all the dopy things and all the times i was embarrassed they don"t matter. whatmatter is that, i can kind of look back and say, "pretty much anytime i got a chance to dosomething cool, i tried to grab for it." and that"s where my solace come from.
坦率地說,我也曾做過很多蠢事,但它們中沒有一件令我煩惱。所有那些犯過的錯,做過的蠢事,還有令我尷尬的時刻,其實它們都不重要。真正重要的是,當(dāng)我回首往事時,我會說:「只要有機會去做那些很酷的事,我將會毫不猶豫的去爭取?!惯@才讓我足堪告慰。
the second thing i would add to that, and i didn"t coordinate on the subject of this word but ithink it"s the right word that comes up, is passion. and you will need to find you passion.many of you have already done it, many of you will later, many of you will take till your 30s or40s. but don"t give up on finding it. alright? "cause then all you"re doing is waiting for thereaper. find you passion and follow it.
第二件我想說的事就是,我并沒有規(guī)劃用這個字眼。但我想這個字眼很合適,那就是“熱情”二字。你們必須要找到自己的熱情所在。你們當(dāng)中有些人已經(jīng)找到了,許多人將來也會找到,也許很多人要到三、四十歲時才找得到。但千萬不要放棄尋找你的激情。好嗎?因為你若放棄了,那你所能做的僅是等待死亡而已。去尋找你的熱情所在,并追隨它的腳步!
and if there"s anything i have learned in my life, you will not find passion in things. and youwill not find that passion in money. because the more things and the more money you have,the more you will just look around and use that as the metric, and there will always be someonewith more.
如果說我這一生中學(xué)到了什麼的話,那就是你不可能在物質(zhì)中找到熱情。你不會在金錢中找到熱情。因為你擁有的財富越多,你就越有可能用它去衡量你周圍的世界,然而總是有人比你更富有。
so your passion must come from the things that fuel you from the inside. and honors andawards are nice things but only to be the e_tent that they regard the real respect from yourpeers. and to be thought well of by other people that you think even more highly of is atremendous honor that i"ve been granted.
因此,熱情必須來自于能從內(nèi)在激發(fā)你。榮譽和獎賞是好事,但僅限于出于同行們真心的尊敬?;蚴窍裎乙粯幽軌虮蛔约核鹁吹娜怂J(rèn)同,這才是最大的榮幸。
find you passion and in my e_perience, no matter what you do at work or what you do inofficial settings, that passion would be grounded in people. and it will be grounded in therelationships you have with people, and what they think of you, when you time comes. and ifyou can gain the respect of those around you, and the passion and true love, and i"ve said thisbefore, but i waited till 39 to get married because i had to wait that long to find someonewhere her happiness was more important than mine. and if nothing else i hope that all of youcan find that kind of passion and that kind of love in your life.
去尋找你的熱情吧。在我看來,無論你從事什麼樣工作,處在怎樣的環(huán)境當(dāng)中,激情都是和人有關(guān)的。熱情基于人與人之間的關(guān)係,基于當(dāng)你離開人世時,人們對你的看法。如果你能贏的身邊人的尊敬,正如我之前所說的你有熱情和真愛。我等到39歲才結(jié)婚,是因為我必須等這麼久才能找到一位她的幸福比我的更重要的人。拋開一切其他不談,我祝在座的各位,此生都能夠找到那樣的熱情和真愛。
thank you!
謝謝!

dean ellis, honored guests, faculty, family, friends, and the class of 2024,
i cannot begin to e_press my gratitude for your generosity today. thank you so much forinviting me to join you in celebrating your graduation! three years ago, i could never havecomprehended such an opportunity. thank you, thank you, thank you.
about three years ago today, i was right where you are. i was sitting in a folding chair, justlike that one, and i was wearing my cap and gown, waiting to walk on stage. but i wasn"tgraduating. when they shook my hand and took my picture, they handed me an empty folder.you see at stanford, they let you "walk" through graduation even if you haven"t actually finishedthe requirements necessary to get your diploma. you get to pretend that you are graduatingjust like everyone else, even though you aren"t. the university had created this program forstudents who were using the summer term to finish up their degrees. i was using it because iwas embarrassed, and i didn"t want to be left out of the celebrations. what was i going to do?stay in my dorm room while all of my friends processed into the stadium and tossed their capsinto the air without me? so i sat in the hot sun and i listened to cory booker talk for what feltlike quite a while, and i waved to my family who had traveled all the way to stanford to watchme not to graduate. by the way, hi, mom!
it only recently occurred to me, while preparing this address, how totally absurd this wholecharade was. it reminded me that oftentimes we do all sorts of silly things to avoid appearingdifferent. conforming happens so naturally that we can forget how powerful it is – we want tobe accepted by our peers – we want to be a part of the group. it"s in our biology. but the thingsthat make us human are those times we listen to the whispers of our soul and allow ourselves tobe pulled in another direction. conformity is so fascinating and so pervasive that it has beenstudied for a very long time. see, it turns out there are two things that can dramatically reduceconformity in a group setting. the first is a single dissenting voice, and the second is theability to communicate privately with other members of the group. our government gives usthe right to privacy and the right to e_press ourselves freely in the hope that we mightmitigate conformity. democracy wasn"t designed to promote popular thought. it wasarchitected to protect dissent. for, as president kennedy said, "conformity is the jailer offreedom and the enemy of growth."
i recently fell in love with a story about a great piece of american art. and it"s about a guynamed bob rauschenberg. he was a young artist, and he went to go visit his idol. you know, hereally loved this guy and he was totally terrified. he was so nervous that he was clutching abottle of jack daniels for liquid courage. and the truth is: he actually wasn"t just visiting. hewas visiting bill de kooning to ask for something. he wanted one of bill de kooning"s drawings.you see, bill de kooning, he was a dumb guy, he knew e_actly what rauschenberg was up to,because rauschenberg had recently been e_perimenting with his own art. he had been creatingthese drawings and then erasing them. but that wasn"t enough for bob rauschenberg, becausebob rauschenberg didn"t want to just erase his own art, he wanted to erase the art of hishero. so de kooning obliged but he took his time, and he tortured the young artist as hewandered around his studio in search of the perfect drawing. he didn"t want to just give him arandom drawing. he wanted it to be something really great, something that he really loved.and he finally settled on a drawing that was very, very hard to erase. it was comprised oflayers of lead and charcoal. and he generously gave it to bob rauschenberg. according to bob,it took nearly two months to erase the drawing. but it was jasper johns who came along andframed it and he gave that drawing a title, called "erased de kooning by bob rauschenberg." itwas jasper johns who recognized that in the process of erasing de kooning"s work, bobrauschenberg had actually created something new, his own new work of art.
i love this story because bill de kooning had the humility to recognize that the greatest thingwe can do is provide the best possible foundation for those who come after us. we mustwelcome our own erasure. so i"m asked one question most often: "why didn"t you sell yourbusiness? it doesn"t even make money. it"s a fad. you could be on a boat right now. everybodyloves boats. what is wrong with you?" and i am now convinced that the fastest way to figureout if you are doing something that is truly important to you is to find someone who offers youa bunch of money to part with it. so the best thing is that no matter whether or not you sell,you will learn something very valuable about yourself. if you sell, you will know immediatelythat it wasn"t the right dream anyways. and if you don"t sell, you"re probably onto something.maybe you have the beginning of something meaningful. but don"t feel bad if you sell out. justdon"t stop there. i mean, gosh, we would have sold our first company, for sure. but no onewanted to buy it. when we decided not to sell our business, people called us a lot of thingsbesides crazy – things like arrogant and entitled. the same words that i"ve heard used todescribe our generation time and time again. the millennial generation. the "me" generation.well, it"s true. we do have a sense of entitlement, a sense of ownership, because, after all,this is the world we were born into, and we are responsible for it.
the funny thing about "erased de kooning" is that it isn"t for sale. it"s safe and sound in thesan francisco museum of modern art. it"s tremendously valuable, but it bears no price. youalready have inside of you all of the amazing things you need to follow the dreams that youhave. and if you get stuck along the way, there"s a ton of free information available on theinternet. have faith in yourself and the person you are going to become. know that you arecapable of all of the growth that will be e_pected of you and that you e_pect from yourself. youwill tackle every challenge headed your way – and if you don"t – it won"t be for lack of trying.someone will always have an opinion about you. whatever you do won"t ever be enough. so findsomething important to you. find something that you love. you are going to make a lot ofmistakes. i"ve already made a ton of them – some of them very publicly – and it will feelterrible, but it will be okay. just apologize as quickly as you can and pray for forgiveness.
when you leave here, you"re going to face a great challenge: a full-time job. and the hardestpart is going to be getting used to solving problems that don"t yet have answers. in times ofdespair, you may believe the cynic who tells you that one person cannot make a difference –and there are times it may be hard to see your own impact. i beg you to remember that it isnot possible at this time or at any time to know the end results of our efforts. that is for ourgod alone. please voice your dissent, anticipate your erasure, and find something you aren"twilling to sell.
congratulations to the class of 2024! fight on!
