crossing the sea
good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. the title of my speech today is "crossing the sea".
an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in his poem "we and they":
"all the people like us are we
and everyone else is they
we live over the sea
while they live over the way
we eat pork and beef with cowhorn-handled knives
they who gobble their rice off a leaf
are horrified out of their lives."
when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked-how could two peoples remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? today"s society, of course, is an entirely different picture. those people who used to eat with cowhorn-handled knives might be very skillful in using chopsticks, and those people who used to gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips.
indeed, just take china as an e_ample: our modern life has been influenced by western style of living in so many ways that it"s no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mcdonald"s and even rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans.
however, these are only some e_pressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today. what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation"s mentality. just look around.
how many college graduates are ready to compete aggressively for every job opportunity, whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government?
how many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future? ask anyone who participates in today"s speech contest. who has not come with a will to fight and who has not come determined to achieve self-fulfillment in winning the game? and i"m quite certain that if confucius had lived to see today"s china, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved e_pression of their passion.
it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization are already living under strong inf1uence of the western culture. but it is not only in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.
take the united states as an e_ample: during the 1980s,in face of the overwhelming competition from japan, many american companies such as the ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of eastern culture.
take the chinese acupuncture as another e_ample: this traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body -- an idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past!
ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before. we live in a particular era when countries, east and west, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values. we live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race. to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter future, we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a world community which is becoming smaller and smaller.
my dear fellow students, our command of the english language renders it possible for us to gain an insight into western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural e_changes and hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world.
it is my happiest dream that the new generation of chinese will not only grow up drinking coca-cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures; benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.
to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again:
"all the people like us are we
and everyone else is they
but once you cross over the sea
you will end by looking on we
as only a sort of they"
thank you.
穿越海洋
女士們、先生們,晚上好。今天,我演講的題目是:《穿越海洋》。
英國詩人羅得雅德?吉卜林曾寫過一首詩,名叫《我們與他們》,其中寫道:
像我們的人是我們
其余的人是他們
我們生活在海這邊
他們生活在路那邊
我們用牛角柄的刀叉吃豬牛肉
吞吃粽葉包飯的他們嚇得要死。
第一次讀到這首詩,我很震驚——過去兩個民族何以如此疏離、彼此陌生?當(dāng)然今日的社會呈現(xiàn)出完全不同的情景:那些過去吃米飯的人們也開始喜歡吃魚和薯?xiàng)l。
的確如此,就拿中國來說,西方的生活方式已經(jīng)廣泛地影響了我們的現(xiàn)代生活,以致對于年輕人對搖滾樂著迷,全家去吃麥當(dāng)勞,老年人穿蘋果牌牛仔褲,大家都已習(xí)以為常。
然而,這不過是我們當(dāng)今社會中所發(fā)生的文化變遷的表面現(xiàn)象而已,真正發(fā)生的卻是我們的民族心理開始了微妙而又有重大意義的重建,大家只要看看周圍就會清楚。
不久以前,大學(xué)生還只是束手空坐,等待政府給他們分配工作;如今,又有多少大學(xué)生正在做充分準(zhǔn)備,為爭取任何工作機(jī)會而激烈角逐?
20__年前年輕人還完全依靠父母為他們安排未來,今天又有多少年輕人在急切地尋求一種獨(dú)立的生活?試問今天參加演講比賽的諸位,誰不是帶著志在一搏的心情來到這里?誰不是鐵下心來贏得這場比賽以實(shí)現(xiàn)自我?如今年輕人毫無顧忌地宣泄情感當(dāng)眾親吻,我確信,倘若孔子在世,他必被嚇壞。
很明顯,我們這些東方古老文明的后裔們早已生活在西方文化的強(qiáng)烈影響之下,然而出現(xiàn)這種異質(zhì)文化合流的現(xiàn)象不止是在中國。
以美國為例,20世紀(jì)80年代,面對來自日本的強(qiáng)大競爭壓力,許多美國公司如福特公司開始采用對手的集體合作管理方式,而這種方式正是東方文化核心之精華。
再以中華針灸為例,這種傳統(tǒng)的醫(yī)療方法以及這種療法的依據(jù)——即人體陰陽失調(diào)導(dǎo)致疾病最終得到西方社會的承認(rèn),而在過去,西方人還認(rèn)為這是無稽之談。
女士們,先生們,我們恰逢一個偉大的時代:全球經(jīng)濟(jì)一體化、信息革命使得世界各種文化聯(lián)系比以往更加緊密;
我們恰逢一個特殊的年代:無論是東方國家還是西方國家都意識到自身急需調(diào)整傳統(tǒng)價值。與此同時,我們正生活在發(fā)展的關(guān)鍵時刻:種族沖突,地區(qū)動蕩正越來越威脅著整個人類的和平與幸福。如何對待這一時代,擁抱更加燦爛的未來,我們需要學(xué)會在越來越小的世界大家庭中更加和睦地生活。
親愛的同學(xué)們,我們掌握英語,得以了解西方文化,與此同時,又不失本民族的文化特征。
因此,促進(jìn)中國與世界的文化交流與相互理解是我們神圣的責(zé)任。
我有一個美好的夢想,我夢想中國的年輕一代不僅僅在喝可口可樂、看好萊塢影片中成長,而且還受益于我們的父輩所從未夢想過的多元文化所帶來的深遠(yuǎn)影響。
最后,再次以羅得雅德?吉卜林的詩作為我此次演講的結(jié)尾:
像我們的人是我們
其余的人是他們
然而一旦你們穿洋越海
就不會再把我們
看做僅僅是他們。
謝謝。

good morning,every girls!it`s my honour to stand here talking something about good manners.
manners e_ist in many aspects.having good manners will help you make good impression upon other people.
there are different manners such as communicating manners in our daily life ,personal apperance manners,religion manners,service manners of different jobs and so on ,among which the most important one is the communicating manners in our daily life.
when meeting people,westerners usually shake hands.americans and northwestern europeans e_pect a strong handshake,and some shake hands for several seconds.if your hand is wet or very weak,that is a bad sign.people in east europe and some arab coutries embrace and kiss each other,while the people in thailand put their hands together before their nose and lower their head and eyes.
there also are other manners used in our daily life .when we are at table,and when we are on the phone,having good manners will make everything better.
hving good manners means knowing and doing.no matter how many manners there are,what we should do is to gain the knowledge of it as much as we can ,and try to think for others,only in this way can the world become more harmonious!

the boost students need to overcome obstacles
演講者:anindya kundu
/ 中英對照演講稿 /
so, i teach college students about inequality and race in education, and i like to leave my office open to any of my students who might just want to see me to chat. and a few semesters ago, one of my more cheerful students, mahari, actually came to see me and mentioned that he was feeling a bit like an outcast because he"s black. he had just transferred to nyu from a community college on a merit scholarship, and turns out, only about five percent of students at nyu are black. and so i started to remember that i know that feeling of being an outsider in your own community.it"s partially what drew me to my work.
我教導(dǎo)大學(xué)生關(guān)于教育中的不平等以及種族議題,我會把我的辦公室開放給我任何一個學(xué)生,就算只是想來找我聊聊都很歡迎。幾學(xué)期之前,我最快活的學(xué)生之一,馬哈里,竟然來找我,他提到,他覺得因?yàn)樗呛谌硕慌艛D。他剛從小區(qū)大學(xué)轉(zhuǎn)學(xué)到紐約大學(xué),他靠的是榮譽(yù)獎學(xué)金,結(jié)果,在紐約大學(xué)中只有5%的學(xué)生是黑人。于是,我開始想起,我知道在自己的小區(qū)中身為外人的感覺。這是導(dǎo)致我做這份工作的部份原因。
at my university, i"m one of the few faculty members of color, and growing up, i e_perienced my family"s social mobility, moving out of apartments into a nice house, but in an overwhelmingly white neighborhood. i was 12, and kids would say that were surprised that i didn"t smell like curry.
在我的大學(xué)中,我是少數(shù)的有色人種教職員之一,在成長過程中,我經(jīng)歷了我家庭的社會地位變動,搬出公寓,搬進(jìn)好房子,但卻是在一個非常白人的鄰里中。我當(dāng)時十二歲,孩子們會說他們很意外我聞起來竟然不像咖哩。
that"s because school is in the morning,and i had eggo waffles for breakfast. curry is for dinner.
那是因?yàn)樯蠈W(xué)時間是早上,而我早餐吃的是eggo松餅??Яㄒ酵聿筒懦浴?/p>
so when mahari was leaving, i asked him how he was coping with feeling isolated. and he said that despite feeling lonely,he just threw himself at his work, that he built strategies around his grit and his desire to be successful. a mentor of mine is actually dr. angela duckworth,the psychologist at upenn who has defined this stick-to-itiveness of grit as being "the perseverance and passion for long-term goals."
所以當(dāng)馬哈里要離開時,我問他,他如何處理被隔離的感受。他說,盡管感到孤獨(dú),他就讓自己埋頭工作,為他的毅力和想要成功的欲望建立起策略。我的導(dǎo)師之一是安杰拉達(dá)克沃斯博士,賓州大學(xué)的心理學(xué)家,她將堅(jiān)忍不拔的毅力定義為「對長期目標(biāo)的堅(jiān)持不懈及熱情?!?/p>
angela"s book has become a best seller, and schools across the country, particularly charter schools, have become interested in citing "grit" as a core value. but sometimes grit isn"t enough, especially in education. so when mahariwas leaving my office, i worried that he might need something more specific to combat the challenges that he mentioned to me.
安杰拉的書暢銷熱賣,全國的學(xué)校、特別是公立學(xué)校,都變得很想要引用「毅力」作為一個核心價值。但有時,光有毅力并不夠,特別是在教育中。所以當(dāng)馬哈里離開我的辦公室,我擔(dān)心他可能需要更明確的東西,來對抗那些他跟我提及的挑戰(zhàn)。
as a sociologist, i also study achievement,but from a slightly different perspective. i research students who have overcome immense obstacles related to their background. students from low-income, often single-parent households, students who have been homeless,incarcerated or perhaps undocumented, or some who have struggled with substance abuse or lived through violent or se_ual trauma.
身為社會學(xué)家,我也研究成就,但會從稍微不同的觀點(diǎn)切入。我研究的學(xué)生,是克服了與他們背景相關(guān)的巨大障礙的學(xué)生。有些來自低收入戶,通常都是單親家庭,有些曾經(jīng)無家可歸、被監(jiān)禁過、或也許是沒有身份證明文件的,有些因?yàn)樵?jīng)濫用藥物而在掙扎,或是經(jīng)歷過暴力或性創(chuàng)傷。
so let me tell you about two of the grittiest people i"ve met. tyrique was raised by a single mother, and then after high school, he fell in with the wrong crowd. he got arrested for armed robbery. but in prison, he started to work hard. he took college credit courses, so when he got out, he was able to get a master"s, and today he"s a manager at a nonprofit.
讓我告訴各位關(guān)于兩位我見過最有毅力的人。泰瑞克是被單親媽媽扶養(yǎng)長大的,高中之后,他遇到了不好的朋輩。他因?yàn)槲溲b搶劫而被捕。但在監(jiān)獄中,他開始努力。他上大學(xué)的學(xué)分課程,所以出獄時,他拿到了碩士學(xué)位,現(xiàn)在他是一間非營利機(jī)構(gòu)的經(jīng)理。
vanessa had to move around a lot as a kid, from the lower east side to staten island to the bron_. she was raised primarily by her e_tended family, because her own mother had a heroin addiction. yet at 15,vanessa had to drop out of school, and she had a son of her own. but eventually, she was able to go to community college, get her associate"s, then go to an elite college to finish her bachelor"s.
凡妮莎小時候常常搬家,從紐約下東城,搬到史泰登島,再搬到布朗克斯區(qū)。她主要是由她的親戚養(yǎng)大的,因?yàn)樗哪赣H有海洛因毒癮。但在十五歲時,因?yàn)樗辛撕⒆?,凡妮莎休學(xué)了。但最終,她得以進(jìn)入小區(qū)大學(xué),取得副學(xué)士學(xué)位,接著進(jìn)入一所菁英大學(xué),取得她的學(xué)士學(xué)位。
so some people might hear these stories and say, "yes, those two definitely have grit. they basically pulled themselves up by the bootstraps." but that"s an incomplete picture,because what"s more important is that they had factors in their lives that helped to influence their agency, or their specific capacity to actually overcome the obstacles that they were facing and navigate the system given their circumstances.
有些人聽到這些故事可能會說:「是,這兩個人的確有毅力。他們基本上靠自己的努力改善了處境?!沟遣⒎菍?shí)際完整的狀況。因?yàn)楦匾氖?,他們的人生中有些因子,協(xié)助影響了他們的動力、或他們的特定的能力,讓他們能真的克服他們面對的障礙,并以他們的情況在體制中力爭上游。
so, allow me to elaborate. in prison,tyrique was actually aimless at first, as a 22-year-old on rikers island. this is until an older detainee took him aside and asked him to help with the youth program. and in mentoring youth, he started to see his own mistakes and possibilities in the teens. this is what got him interested in taking college-credit courses.
讓我進(jìn)一步解釋。泰瑞克,這位囚居賴克斯島監(jiān)獄的22歲青年,一開始其實(shí)毫無目標(biāo)。直到一位老囚犯把他拉到一旁,請他協(xié)助一個青年項(xiàng)目。在指導(dǎo)青年的過程,他開始看見他自己在十多歲時犯的錯誤以及可能性。這讓他開始想要去上大學(xué)的學(xué)分課程。
and when he got out, he got a job with fortune society,where many e_ecutives are people who have been formerly incarcerated. so then he was able to get a master"s in social work, and today, he even lectures at columbia about prison reform. and vanessa ... well, after the birth of her son,she happened to find a program called vocational foundation that gave her 20 dollars biweekly, a metrocard and her first e_periences with a computer.
他出獄后,在fortunesociety得到一份工作,(譯注:非營利組織名稱)在那里,許多主管以前都有坐過牢。所以他得以取得社工的碩士學(xué)位,現(xiàn)在,他甚至在哥倫比亞大學(xué)教授關(guān)于監(jiān)獄改革的課。至于凡妮莎……在她的兒子出生后,她剛好找到一個職訓(xùn)項(xiàng)目,叫vocationalfoundation,給了她每兩周$20、一張地鐵卡、以及她用計算機(jī)的初體驗(yàn)。
these simple resources are what helped her get her ged, but then she suffered from a very serious kidney failure, which was particularly problem atic because she was only born with one kidney. she spent 10 years on dialysis waiting for a successful transplant.
這些簡單的資源協(xié)助她取得高中等級學(xué)歷證明(ged),但接著她遭受到很嚴(yán)重的腎衰竭,她出生時只有一個腎,因此這對她來說特別麻煩。她花了十年洗腎,等待成功的移植。
after that, her mentors at community college had kept in touch with her, and so she was able to go, and they put her in an honors program.and that"s the pathway that allowed her to become accepted to one of the most elite colleges for women in the country, and she received her bachelor"s at 36,setting an incredible e_ample for her young son.
那之后,她在小區(qū)大學(xué)的導(dǎo)師一直和她保持聯(lián)絡(luò),所以她得以進(jìn)學(xué)校,他們將她安排到榮譽(yù)課程中。那是在一所全國數(shù)一數(shù)二的菁英女子大學(xué)錄取她之前,她所走過的路,她在36歲時取得學(xué)士學(xué)位,為她的兒子做了一個好榜樣。
what these stories primarily indicate is that teaching is social and benefits from social scaffolding. there were factors pushing these two in one direction, but through tailored mentorship and opportunities, they were able to reflect on their circumstances and resist negative influences. they also learned simple skills like developing a network,or asking for help -- things many of us in this room can forget that we have needed from time to time, or can take for granted.
這些故事主要點(diǎn)出的重點(diǎn)是,教學(xué)是社會性的,受惠于社會框架支持。的確有些因子將這兩個人推向一個方向,但透過量身訂作的引導(dǎo)和機(jī)會,他們才得以反省他們的處境,并抗拒負(fù)面的影響。他們也學(xué)會了簡單的技能,像是開發(fā)網(wǎng)絡(luò)、或是尋求協(xié)助。在座各位可能已經(jīng)忘記,我們偶爾都會需要幫助,或已把它視為理所當(dāng)然。
and when we think of people like this, we should only think of them as e_ceptional, but not as e_ceptions. thinking of them as e_ceptions absolves us of the collective responsibility to help students in similar situations. when presidents bush, obama and now even trump,have called education "the civil rights issue of our time," perhaps we should treat it that way. if schools were able to think about the agency that their students have and bring to the table when they push them, what students learn can become more relevant to their lives, and then they can tapinto those internal reservoirs of grit and character.
當(dāng)我們想想象這樣的人,我們只該將他們想成是特殊的,而非例外。將他們視為例外,是讓我們卸責(zé),免除協(xié)助類似學(xué)生的集體責(zé)任。總統(tǒng)布什、歐巴馬、甚至現(xiàn)在的川普,都把教育稱為是「我們時代的公民權(quán)利議題」,也許我們該這樣看待它。如果學(xué)校能想想他們的學(xué)生有什么動力,并在推他們一把時提供意見,那么學(xué)生所學(xué)的就能對其生活更有重要性,那么他們就能將內(nèi)在儲藏的毅力和品格拿出來用。
so this here -- my student mahari got accepted to law school with scholarships, and not to brag, but i did write oneof his letters of recommendation.
這里的這位是──我的學(xué)生馬哈里,他得到獎學(xué)金,被法學(xué)院錄取,不是要夸耀,但他的推薦信之一是我寫的。
and even though i know hard work is what got him this achievement, i"ve seen him find his voice along the way, which as someone who"s grown up a little bit shy and awkward, i know it takes time and support. so even though he will rely a lot on his grit to get him through that first-year law school grind, i"ll be there as a mentor for him, check in with him from time to time, maybe take him out to get some curry ...so that he can keep growing his agency to succeed even more.
雖然我知道是努力讓他有這樣的成就,我看到他在這條路上找到自己的聲音,但他在成長過程中是個有點(diǎn)害羞且笨拙的人,我知道這的確需要時間和支持。雖然他將要很仰賴他的毅力,來幫他渡過法學(xué)院苦學(xué)的第一年,我會在這里,扮演他的導(dǎo)師,偶爾看看他的狀況,也許帶他出去吃點(diǎn)咖哩……讓他能夠持續(xù)進(jìn)一步發(fā)展朝成功前進(jìn)的動力。
thank you.(applause)
謝謝。(掌聲)
