Transcr ipt of Apple CEO Tim Cook's commencement address at Tulane University
蘋果CEO蒂姆·庫(kù)克杜蘭大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講致詞
Hello Tulane! Thank you President Fitts, Provost Forman, distinguished faculty, other faculty (laughs), and the entire Tulane family, including the workers, ushers, (and) volunteers who prepared this beautiful space. And I feel duty-bound to also recognize the hard-working bartenders at The Boot. Though they're not here with us this morning, I'm sure some of you are reflecting on their contributions as well. (The Boot is a popular college bar right next to Tulane's campus which has been around for decades.)
你好，杜蘭大學(xué)！感謝菲茨校長(zhǎng)、福爾曼教務(wù)長(zhǎng)、尊敬的教職員工、其他教職員工[笑]以及整個(gè)杜蘭大家庭，包括為這個(gè)美麗的講堂做準(zhǔn)備的工作人員、引座員和志愿者。我覺(jué)得我有責(zé)任也稱贊一下在The Boot工作的辛勤的調(diào)酒師。雖然他們今天早上沒(méi)有和我們?cè)谝黄�，但我相信你們中的一些人也在反思他們的貢獻(xiàn)。[The Boot是一家受歡迎的大學(xué)酒吧，緊挨著杜蘭大學(xué)校園，已經(jīng)存在了幾十年了。]
And just as many of you have New Orleans in your veins, and perhaps your livers, some of us at Apple have New Orleans in our blood as well. When I was a student at Auburn, the Big Easy was our favorite getaway. It's amazing how quickly those 363 miles fly by when you're driving toward a weekend of beignets and beer. And how slowly they go in the opposite direction. Apple's own Lisa Jackson is a proud Tulane alum. Yes. She brought the Green Wave all the way to Cupertino where she heads our environment and public policy work. We're thrilled to have her talent and leadership on our team.
就像你們中很多人的血管里也許還有肝臟里有新奧爾良一樣，我們蘋果公司的一些人的血液里也有新奧爾良。當(dāng)我還是奧本大學(xué)的學(xué)生的時(shí)候，我們最喜歡的度假勝地是Big Easy。非常神奇的是，當(dāng)你在周末開(kāi)車駛向這個(gè)勝地，想象著甜甜圈和啤酒的時(shí)候，363英里的距離似乎一閃而過(guò)；而當(dāng)你返程時(shí)，路途卻顯得那么遙遠(yuǎn)。蘋果的員工麗莎-杰克遜(LisaJackson)是一位令人驕傲的杜蘭大學(xué)校友。是。她把綠色浪潮一路帶到了庫(kù)比蒂諾，在那里她領(lǐng)導(dǎo)著我們的環(huán)境和公共政策工作。我們很高興她能在我們的隊(duì)伍中發(fā)揮才華和進(jìn)行領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。
OK, enough about us. Let's talk about you. At moments like this, it always humbles me to watch a community come together to teach, mentor, advise, and finally say with one voice, congratulations to the class of 20xx!
好了，別再提我們了。讓我們談?wù)勀銈�。在這樣的時(shí)刻，看到一個(gè)社區(qū)聚集在一起傳道受業(yè)解惑，最后用一個(gè)聲音說(shuō)，祝賀20xx年的同學(xué)們，這讓我感到很謙卑！
Now there's another very important group: your family and friends. The people who, more than anyone else, loved, supported, and even sacrificed greatly to help you reach this moment. Let's give them a round of applause. This will be my first piece of advice. You might not appreciate until much later in your life how much this moment means to them. Or how that bond of obligation, love, and duty between you matters more than anything else.
現(xiàn)在還有一個(gè)非常重要的群體：你們的家人和朋友。那些比任何人都更愛(ài)你們、更支持你們、甚至甘愿自我犧牲的人，為了幫助你們達(dá)到這一時(shí)刻，他們付出了巨大的代價(jià)。讓我們?yōu)樗麄児恼啤＿@將是我的第一條建議。直到你生命的后期，你們才會(huì)意識(shí)到這一刻對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)有多么重要，或者意識(shí)到你們的義務(wù)、愛(ài)和責(zé)任有多么重要。
In fact, that's what I really want to talk to you about today. In a world where we obsessively document our own lives, most of us don't pay nearly enough attention to what we owe one another. Now this isn't just about calling your parents more, although I'm sure they'd be grateful if you did that. It's about recognizing that human civilization began when we realized that we could do more together. That the threats and danger outside the flickering firelight got smaller when we got bigger. And that we could create more - more prosperity, more beauty, more wisdom, and a better life - when we acknowledge certain shared truths and acted collectively.
事實(shí)上，這就是我今天真正想和你們說(shuō)的。在一個(gè)我們沉迷于記錄自己生活的世界里，我們中的大多數(shù)人對(duì)我們彼此虧欠的東西沒(méi)有給予足夠的關(guān)注。這不僅僅是給你們的父母打更多的電話，盡管我相信如果你們會(huì)這么做，他們會(huì)很感激的。當(dāng)我們意識(shí)到我們可以在一起做更多的事情時(shí)，人類文明就開(kāi)始了。當(dāng)我們變得更越來(lái)越強(qiáng)大時(shí)，在閃爍的火光之外的威脅和危險(xiǎn)就會(huì)變得越來(lái)越小。我們可以創(chuàng)造更多——更多的繁榮，更多的美，更多的智慧，更美好的生活——只要我們承認(rèn)某些共同的真理并采取集體行動(dòng)。
Maybe I'm biased, but I've always thought the South, and the Gulf Coast in particular, have hung on to this wisdom better than most. (Tim Cook grew up in Robertsdale, Alabama, which is about an hour from New Orleans and is similarly close to the Gulf of Mexico.) In this part of the country, your neighbors check up on you if they haven't heard from you in a while. Good news travels fast because your victories are their victories too. And you can't make it through someone's front door before they offer you a home-cooked meal.
也許我有偏見(jiàn)，但我一直認(rèn)為南方，特別是墨西哥灣海岸，比大多數(shù)人更能堅(jiān)持這一智慧。[庫(kù)克在阿拉巴馬州的羅伯茨代爾長(zhǎng)大，那里距離新奧爾良大約一個(gè)小時(shí)的路程，同樣靠近墨西哥灣。]在這個(gè)國(guó)家的這個(gè)地方，如果你們的鄰居有一段時(shí)間沒(méi)有你們的消息，他們會(huì)忍不住來(lái)看望你們。好消息傳得很快，因?yàn)槟銈兊膭倮彩撬麄兊膭倮�。在他們提供一頓熱飯熱菜招待你們之前，你們是不可能走出大門的。
Maybe you haven't thought about it very much, but these values have informed your Tulane education too. Just look at the motto: not for one's self, but for one's own. You've been fortunate to live, learn, and grow in a city where human currents blend into something magical and unexpected. Where unmatched beauty, natural beauty, literary beauty, musical beauty, cultural beauty, seem to spring unexpectedly from the bayou. The people of New Orleans use two tools to build this city: the unlikely and the impossible. Wherever you go, don't forget the lessons of this place. Life will always find lots of ways to tell you no, that you can't, that you shouldn't, that you'd be better off if you didn't try. But New Orleans teaches us there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than trying. Especially when we do it not in the service of one's self, but one's own.
也許你們還沒(méi)有想太多，但這些價(jià)值觀也影響了你們杜蘭大學(xué)的.教育�？纯催@句座右銘：不是為了自己，而是為了自己人。你們很幸運(yùn)地生活、學(xué)習(xí)和成長(zhǎng)在一座城市里，在這個(gè)城市里，人類的潮流融合成了一種神奇的、意想不到的東西。在那里，無(wú)與倫比的美，自然的美，文學(xué)的美，音樂(lè)的美，文化的美，似乎不期而至地從河口涌出。新奧爾良的人們使用兩種工具來(lái)建造這座城市：不太可能的和不可能的。無(wú)論你走到哪里，都不要忘記這個(gè)地方的教訓(xùn)。生活總會(huì)找到很多方法來(lái)告訴你，不，你不能，你不應(yīng)該，如果你不去嘗試，你會(huì)過(guò)得更好。但是新奧爾良告訴我們，沒(méi)有什么比嘗試更美麗和更有價(jià)值了。尤其是當(dāng)我們這樣做不是為自己服務(wù)，而是為自己人服務(wù)的時(shí)候。
For me, it was that search for greater purpose that brought me to Apple in the first place. I had a comfortable job at a company called Compaq that at the time looked like it was going to be on top forever. As it turns out, most of you are probably too young to even remember its name. But in 1998, Steve Jobs convinced me to leave Compaq behind to join a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy. They made computers, but at that moment at least, people weren't interested in buying them. Steve had a plan to change things. And I wanted to be a part of it.
對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，正是為了追求更偉大的目標(biāo)，我才第一次來(lái)到蘋果。我曾在一家叫康柏(Compaq)的公司找到了一份舒適的工作，在當(dāng)時(shí)看來(lái)，這份工作將永遠(yuǎn)是的工作。事實(shí)證明，你們中的大多數(shù)人可能還太年輕，甚至不記得它的名字。但在1998年，史蒂夫-喬布斯說(shuō)服我離開(kāi)康柏，加入一家瀕臨破產(chǎn)的蘋果公司。他們制造電腦，但至少在那一刻，人們對(duì)購(gòu)買這些電腦并不感興趣。史蒂夫有個(gè)改變一切的計(jì)劃。我也想成為其中的一員。
It wasn't just about the iMac, or the iPod, or everything that came after. It was about the values that brought these inventions to life. The idea that putting powerful tools in the hands of everyday people helps unleash creativity and move humanity forward. That we can build things that help us imagine a better world and then make it real.
這不僅僅是iMac，或者iPod，或者之后的一切，而是使這些發(fā)明創(chuàng)意復(fù)活的價(jià)值觀念。把強(qiáng)大的工具放在普通人手中將有助于釋放創(chuàng)造力和推動(dòng)人類向前發(fā)展。我們可以建造一些東西來(lái)幫助我們想象一個(gè)更美好的世界，然后讓它成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。
There's a saying that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. At Apple, I learned that's a total crock. You'll work harder than you ever thought possible, but the tools will feel light in your hands. As you go out into the world, don't waste time on problems that have been solved. Don't get hung up on what other people say is practical. Instead, steer your ship into the choppy seas. Look for the rough spots, the problems that seem too big, the complexities that other people are content to work around. It's in those places that you will find your purpose. It's there that you can make your greatest contribution. Whatever you do, don't make the mistake of being too cautious. Don't assume that by staying put, the ground won't move beneath your feet. The status quo simply won't last. So get to work on building something better.
有句諺語(yǔ)說(shuō)，如果你做你喜歡做的事，你的人生中將永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)有一天是在工作。在蘋果公司，我知道了這是一個(gè)徹頭徹尾的謊言。你會(huì)比你想象的更努力工作，但你卻一點(diǎn)也不覺(jué)得費(fèi)勁。當(dāng)你走進(jìn)這個(gè)世界的時(shí)候，不要把時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在已經(jīng)解決的問(wèn)題上。不要為別人所說(shuō)的是實(shí)際的情況而心煩意亂。相反，引導(dǎo)你的船進(jìn)入波濤洶涌的大海。尋找那些蠻荒之地，那些看起來(lái)還很難解決的問(wèn)題，那些其他人樂(lè)于解決的復(fù)雜問(wèn)題。在那些地方，你會(huì)找到你的目標(biāo)。在那里你可以做出你的貢獻(xiàn)。無(wú)論你做什么，都不要犯太謹(jǐn)慎的錯(cuò)誤。不要以為原地不動(dòng)，地面就不會(huì)在你腳下移動(dòng)。現(xiàn)狀根本不會(huì)持久。所以開(kāi)始做些更好的事吧。
In some important ways, my generation has failed you in this regard. We spent too much time debating. We've been too focused on the fight and not focused enough on progress. And you don't need to look far to find an example of that failure. Here today, in this very place, in an arena where thousands once found desperate shelter from a 100-year disaster, the kind that seem to be happening more and more frequently, I don't think we can talk about who we are as people and what we owe to one another without talking about climate change.
在某些重要的方面，我們這代人辜負(fù)了你們。我們花了太多時(shí)間辯論。我們一直太專注于斗爭(zhēng)，而沒(méi)有把足夠的注意力放在進(jìn)步上。你不需要看太遠(yuǎn)就能找到失敗的例子。今天，就在這個(gè)地方，在這個(gè)成千上萬(wàn)人曾經(jīng)絕望地躲避百年災(zāi)難的地方，這種災(zāi)難似乎變得越來(lái)越頻繁。我認(rèn)為，如果我們不談?wù)摎夂蜃兓覀兙蜔o(wú)法談?wù)撐覀兪钦l(shuí)，以及我們彼此虧欠了什么。
(applause) Thank you. Thank you.
謝謝！謝謝！
This problem doesn't get any easier based on whose side wins or loses an election. It's about who has won life's lottery and has the luxury of ignoring this issue and who stands to lose everything. The coastal communities, including some right here in Louisiana, that are already making plans to leave behind the places they've called home for generations and head for higher ground. The fishermen whose nets come up empty. The wildlife preserves with less wildlife to preserve. The marginalized, for whom a natural disaster can mean enduring poverty.
這個(gè)問(wèn)題不會(huì)因?yàn)檎l(shuí)勝誰(shuí)負(fù)而變得簡(jiǎn)單，這是一個(gè)關(guān)乎誰(shuí)贏了人生彩票、誰(shuí)有忽視這個(gè)問(wèn)題的能力、誰(shuí)會(huì)失去一切的問(wèn)題。沿海社區(qū)，包括路易斯安那州的一些社區(qū)，已經(jīng)在計(jì)劃離開(kāi)世代以來(lái)被稱為“家園”的地方，前往更海拔更高地方。如今漁民的漁網(wǎng)空空如也、野生動(dòng)物生計(jì)蕭條。對(duì)于生存在邊緣地區(qū)的人來(lái)說(shuō)，自然災(zāi)害往往就意味著持久的貧困。
Just ask Tulane's own Molly Keogh, who's getting her Ph.D. this weekend. Her important new research shows that rising sea levels are devastating areas of Southern Louisiana more dramatically than anyone expected. Tulane graduates, these are people's homes. Their livelihoods. The land where their grandparents were born, lived, and died.
問(wèn)問(wèn)杜蘭大學(xué)的莫莉·基奧（Molly Keogh）就知道了，她這個(gè)周末就要拿到博士學(xué)位了。她的一項(xiàng)重要新研究表明，海平面上升對(duì)路易斯安那州南部地區(qū)造成的破壞比任何人預(yù)想的都要嚴(yán)重。杜蘭大學(xué)的畢業(yè)生們，這些地方都是人們的家園、他們的生計(jì)、他們祖父母出生、生活和去世的地方。
When we talk about climate change or any issue with human costs, and there are many, I challenge you to look for those who have the most to lose and find the real, true empathy that comes from something shared. That is really what we owe one another. When you do that, the political noise dies down, and you can feel your feet firmly planted on solid ground. After all, we don't build monuments to trolls, and we're not going to start now.
當(dāng)我們談?wù)摎夂蜃兓蛉魏闻c人類成本有關(guān)的問(wèn)題時(shí)，我有很多問(wèn)題希望你們能夠著手去做：去尋找那些因此損失的人，并從一些共同的東西中找到真正的、真正的同理心，這才是我們真正虧欠彼此的東西。當(dāng)你這樣做的時(shí)候，政治上的喧囂就會(huì)平息下來(lái)，你會(huì)感到自己的腳牢牢地踩在了堅(jiān)實(shí)的土地上。畢竟，我們從來(lái)不為巨魔建造紀(jì)念碑，也不會(huì)現(xiàn)在開(kāi)創(chuàng)這個(gè)先例。
If you find yourself spending more time fighting than getting to work, stop and ask yourself who benefits from all the chaos. There are some who would like you to believe that the only way that you can be strong is by bulldozing those who disagree or never giving them a chance to say their peace in the first place. That the only way you can build your own accomplishments is by tearing down the other side.
如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己花在斗爭(zhēng)上的時(shí)間比上班的時(shí)間還多。那么停下來(lái)，問(wèn)問(wèn)自己誰(shuí)能從所有這些混亂中受益。有些人想讓你相信，你能變得強(qiáng)大的方法，就是制服那些不同意你觀點(diǎn)的人，或者從一開(kāi)始就不給他們機(jī)會(huì)表達(dá)自己的機(jī)會(huì)。他們想讓你相信，你能成就自己的方法就是摧毀對(duì)方。
We forget sometimes that our preexisting beliefs have their own force of gravity. Today, certain algorithms pull toward you the things you already know, believe, or like, and they push away everything else. Push back. It shouldn't be this way. But in 20xx, opening your eyes and seeing things in a new way can be a revolutionary act. Summon the courage not just to hear but to listen. Not just to act, but to act together.
我們有時(shí)會(huì)忘記，我們先前存在的信念有其自身的引力。今天，某些算法會(huì)把你已經(jīng)知道、相信或喜歡的東西主動(dòng)拉向你，而把其他的東西推開(kāi)，但事情本不應(yīng)該如此。然而在20xx年，睜開(kāi)眼睛、以一種全新方式看待事物可能是一種革命性的行為。你不僅要鼓起勇氣去聽(tīng)，還要有勇氣去聽(tīng)。不僅僅是行動(dòng)，而是要一起行動(dòng)。
It can sometimes feel like the odds are stacked against you, that it isn't worth it, that the critics are too persistent and the problems are too great. But the solutions to our problems begin on a human scale with building a shared understanding of the work ahead and with undertaking it together. At the very least, we owe it to each other to try.
有時(shí)候你會(huì)覺(jué)得機(jī)會(huì)對(duì)你不利、覺(jué)得這么做不值得、覺(jué)得批評(píng)之聲太過(guò)頑固，亦或覺(jué)得問(wèn)題太大（超出了自己的處理能力）。但是，解決我們當(dāng)下問(wèn)題的辦法首先就是在人類范疇內(nèi)建立對(duì)今后工作的共同理解，并著手共同解決這一問(wèn)題。至少，我們也應(yīng)該放手一搏。
It's worked before. In 1932, the American economy was in a free-fall. Twelve million people were unemployed, and conventional wisdom said the only thing to do was to ride it out, wait, and hope that things would turn around. But the governor of New York, a rising star named Franklin Roosevelt, refused to wait. He challenged the status quo and called for action. He needed people to stop their rosy thinking, face the facts, pull together, and help themselves out of a jam.
這樣的方式在之前曾成功過(guò)。1932年，當(dāng)時(shí)的美國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)一落千丈，有1200萬(wàn)人失業(yè)。傳統(tǒng)觀點(diǎn)認(rèn)為，我們能做的就是撐過(guò)這段時(shí)間、等待，并希望情況會(huì)有所好轉(zhuǎn)。但當(dāng)時(shí)政途冉冉升起的紐約州州長(zhǎng)富蘭克林o羅斯福（Franklin Roosevelt，后就任美國(guó)第32任總統(tǒng)，美國(guó)歷連任超過(guò)兩屆的總統(tǒng)）拒絕等待。他敢于挑戰(zhàn)現(xiàn)狀，呼吁采取行動(dòng)。他呼吁人們停止繼續(xù)抱有樂(lè)觀的想法，面對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)、齊心協(xié)力，幫助自己擺脫困境。
He said: "The country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it and try another. But above all, try something."
他說(shuō)：“這個(gè)國(guó)家需要一些大膽、持續(xù)的嘗試。采取一種方法并加以嘗試是再正常不過(guò)的事情。如果失敗了，我們就承認(rèn)失敗，然后再試一次。但最重要的是，我們需要嘗試一些東西�！�
This was a speech to college students fearful about their future in an uncertain world. He said: "Yours is not the task of making your way in the world, but the task of remaking the world."
這是一場(chǎng)對(duì)大學(xué)生的演講，他們擔(dān)心自己在一個(gè)不確定世界里的未來(lái)。他（羅斯福）說(shuō)：“你們的任務(wù)不是在世界上開(kāi)辟自己的道路，而是改造世界�！�
The audacious empathy of young people, the spirit that says we should live not just for ourselves, but for our own. That's the way forward. From climate change to immigration, from criminal justice reform to economic opportunity, be motivated by your duty to build a better world. Young people have changed the course of history time and time again. And now it's time to change it once more.
年輕人無(wú)畏的同情心告訴我們，我們不僅要為努力生活，而且要為自己而活。這是一條前進(jìn)的道路，從氣候變化到移民、從刑事司法改革到經(jīng)濟(jì)機(jī)遇，我們都要以建設(shè)一個(gè)更美好世界的責(zé)任為動(dòng)力。此前的年輕人一次又一次地改變了歷史的進(jìn)程，現(xiàn)在是時(shí)候再次改變了。
I know, I know the urgency of that truth is with you today. Feel big because no one can make you feel small. Feel brave because the challenges we face are great but you are greater. And feel grateful because someone sacrificed to make this moment possible for you. You have clear eyes and a long life to use them. And here in this stadium, I can feel your courage.
我知道，今天你們所接觸到真相帶來(lái)的緊迫性。大膽一些，因?yàn)闆](méi)有人能讓你感到弱小。勇敢一些，因?yàn)槲覀兠媾R的挑戰(zhàn)是巨大的，但你們將更加偉大。懂得感恩，因?yàn)橐呀?jīng)有人為你們生活在的當(dāng)下做出了犧牲，讓這一刻成為可能。你們擁有一對(duì)清澈的眼睛，人生的道路也還很長(zhǎng)。在這個(gè)體育場(chǎng)，我能感受到你們的勇氣。
Call upon your grit. Try something. You may succeed. You may fail. But make it your life's work to remake the world because there is nothing more beautiful or more worthwhile than working to leave something better for humanity.
呼喚你的勇氣。嘗試，你可能會(huì)成功，也可能會(huì)失敗。但是，請(qǐng)讓改造世界成為你自己的人生工作，因?yàn)闆](méi)有什么比為人類留下更好的東西更具價(jià)值。
Thank you very much, and congratulations class of 20xx!
非常感謝，祝賀20xx屆的畢業(yè)生們！
英語(yǔ)演講稿2
Good morning， ladies and gentlemen， I’m very glad to make a speech here。 Today my topic is “I love you， China�！�
Since the day I was born， I began to have a proud name—Chinese。 Since the day I began to talk， the most beautiful sentence I’ve ever learnt has been “I love you， China！”
I love you， China， and I’m so proud of being a Chinese。 I’m proud that I’ve got the beautiful yellow skin， black eyes and black hair。 I’m also proud that I speak the most beautiful language in the world—Chinese。
I love you， China， for I can feel the deep love you give me every day， every minute。 Last year， I got an opportunity to visit the United States of America。 During my staying there， my father’s boss once invited my family to dinner。 While at ， he looked at me and asked： “Little boy， how long have you been in America？” “About a month，” I answered， “How lucky you are！” he said， “If you were living in China， how could you learn such perfect English？” I smiled and told him proudly that all the students in China are able to learn English at school。 I saw his surprised eyes and said to myself， “I’m proud of you， China ”
英語(yǔ)演講稿3
Good afternoon, everybody. I just want to say a few words about the landmark vote that the House of Representatives is poised to take today -- a vote that can bring us one step closer to making real the promise of quality, affordable health care for the American people.
For the better part of a year now, members of the House and the Senate have been working diligently and constructively to craft legislation that will benefit millions of American families and millions of American businesses who urgently need it. For the first time ever, they've passed bills through every single committee responsible for reform. They've brought us closer than we have ever been to passing health insurance reform on behalf of the American people.
Now is the time to finish the job. The bill that the House has produced will provide stability and security for Americans who have insurance; quality, affordable options for those who don't; and lower costs for American families and American businesses. And as I've insisted from the beginning, it is a bill that is fully paid for and will actually reduce our long-term federal deficit.
This bill is change that the American people urgently need. Don't just take my word for it. Consider the national groups who've come out in support of this bill on behalf of their members: The Consumers Union supports it because it will create -- and I quote -- "a more secure, affordable health care system for the American people."
The American Medical Association and the American Nurses Association support it on behalf of doctors and nurses and medical professionals who know firsthand what's broken in our current system, and who see what happens when their patients can't get the care they need because of insurance industry bureaucracies.
The National Farmers Union supports this bill because it will control costs for farmers and ranchers, and address the unique challenges rural Americans face when it comes to receiving quality care.
And the AARP supports it because it will achieve the goal for which the AARP has been fighting for decades -- reducing the cost of health care, expanding coverage for America's seniors, and strengthening Medicare for the long haul.
Now, no bill can ever contain everything that everybody wants, or please every constituency and every district. That's an impossible task. But what is possible, what's in our grasp right now is the chance to prevent a future where every day 14,000 Americans continue to lose their health insurance, and every year 18,000 Americans die because they don't have it; a future where crushing costs keep small businesses from succeeding and big businesses from competing in the global economy; a future where countless dreams are deferred or scaled back because of a broken system we could have fixed when we had the chance.
What we can do right now is choose a better future and pass a bill that brings us to the very cusp of building what so many generations of Americans have sought to build -- a better health care system for this country.
Millions of Americans are watching right now. Their families and their businesses are counting on us. After all, this is why they sent us here, to finally confront the challenges that Washington had been putting off for decades -- to make their lives better, to leave this country stronger than we found it.
I just came from the Hill where I talked to the members of Congress there, and I reminded them that opportunities like this come around maybe once in a generation. Most public servants pass through their entire careers without a chance to make as important a difference in the lives of their constituents and the life of this country. This is their moment, this is our moment, to live up to the trust that the American people have placed in us -- even when it's hard; especially when it's hard. This is our moment to deliver.
I urge members of Congress to rise to this moment. Answer the call of history, and vote yes for health insurance reform for America.
英語(yǔ)演講稿4
The East and the West, Let’s enjoy the combination of the two cultures? Kipling said:“East is east, and west is west, and never the twain shall meet!” But now, a century later, they have met.
They have met in business. They have met in education. They have met in the arts. Some people will argue that these meetings will leave us with a choice between east and west, but I believe that the best future lies in the creative combination of both worlds. We can make western ideas, customs and technology our own, and adapt them to our own use. We can enjoy the best of both worlds, because our tradition is, above all, one of selecting the best and making it our own.
I love Beijing and Hennan opera because it always reminds me of who I am. But I am also a fan of pop music, especially English songs. So I have combined eastern melody with western language. It is called western henna opera.
When two cultures meet, there may be things in one culture, which do not fit into the tradition of the other. When this happens, we need to learn to understand and respect the customs of another culture. Then there are certain things some people may not like. To this, I will say, if you do not like it, please try to tolerate it. To learn to tolerate what you personally don’t like is a great virtue at a time when different cultures mix and merge. Before us, there are two rivers, eastern and western cultures. At present, they may run in different courses. But eventually, they will converge into the vast sea of human culture.
Right now, I can see peoples of eastern and western cultures, standing side by side, singing the Olympic theme song: we are hand in hand, heart to heart, together we will shape a beautiful tomorrow! Thank you!

I am sure that I will realize my dream one day!
Thank you!

Being poor is not because someone is penniless, but mainly because of the lonely misery in his inner world. they are green-eyed, because they are never satisfied with what they have, but are always jealous of people who are successful or who earn higher salaries. they never look at other people's devotions and contributions, but with their habit of jealousy they always feel poor and uncomfortable. it is more difficult to solve internal poverty. suppose we can look back at the past with the concept of wealth, how can we stay poor? we may well say that wealth lies in your heart and we should know how to treasure it.

The World's Greatest Swordsman.
At an exhibition of the world's best swordsman, the third-place fencer took the stage. A fly was released, and with an arc of his sword he cut the fly in half. The crowd cheered. Then the second-place man sliced a fly into quarters. A hush fell in anticipation of the world's greatest swordsman.
His blade came down in a mighty arc - but the insect continued on its way! The crowd was aghast. The greatest swordsman had missed his target completely, yet he continued to smile.
"Why are you so happy?" someone yelled. "You missed!"
"Ah," replied the swordsman, "you weren't watching very carefully. They fly lives, yes - but he will never be a father."

I want to wish Eid Mubarak to all Muslims celebrating Eid and a safe journey to those now on Hajj.
I know that many of you use this special time to reflect on what’s important to you in yourlives: your family, your friends, your beliefs, your commitment to do the best you can forothers.
It’s also a time to think about sacrifice and struggle – and that is particularly poignant thissummer as we continue to see so many innocent people – Muslim and non-Muslim – caught upin the ongoing conflicts in Syria, Gaza and Iraq.
It is truly heartbreaking to witness the loss that continues to take place in these parts of theworld. More than ever we need to strive for an end to the violence. We need to unite behindpeace, tolerance, compassion, generosity towards one and other – the values that are at theheart of Islam and the heart of Eid. Today I want to reaffirm my commitment to thosevalues, my party’s commitment to those values, and I want to wish you all a loving andpeaceful Eid.

窗
Random Thoughts on the Window
錢鐘書
By Qian Zhongshu
又是春天，窗子可以常開(kāi)了。春天從窗外進(jìn)來(lái)，人在屋子里坐不住，就從門里出去。
It is spring again and the window can be left open as often as one would like. As spring comes in through the windows, so people -- unable to bear staying inside any longer -- go outdoors.
不過(guò)屋子外的春天太賤了!到處是陽(yáng)光，不像射破屋里陰深的那樣明亮;到處是給太陽(yáng)曬得懶洋洋的風(fēng)，不像攪動(dòng)屋里沉悶的那樣有生氣。
The spring outside, however, is much too cheap, for the sun shines on everything, and so does not seem as bright as that which shoots into the darkness of the house. Outside the sun-sloshed breeze blows everywhere, but it is not so lively as that which stirs the gloominess inside the house.
就是鳥(niǎo)語(yǔ)，也似乎瑣碎而單薄，需要屋里的'寂靜來(lái)做襯托。我們因此明白，春天是該鑲嵌在窗子里看的，好比畫配了框子。
Even the chirping of the birds sounds so thin and broken that the quietness of the house is needed to set it off. It seems that spring was always meant to be put behind a windowpane for show, just like a picture in a frame.
同時(shí)，我們悟到，門和窗有不同的意義。當(dāng)然，門是造了讓人出進(jìn)的。但是，窗子有時(shí)也可作為進(jìn)出口用，譬如小偷或小說(shuō)里私約的情人就喜歡爬窗子。
At the same time it also becomes clear that the door has a different significance from the window. Of course, doors were made for people to pass through; but a window can also sometimes serve as an entrance or as an exit, and is used as such by thieves and by lovers in novels.
所以窗子和門的根本分別，決不僅是有沒(méi)有人進(jìn)來(lái)出去。若據(jù)賞春一事來(lái)看，我們不妨這樣說(shuō)：有了門，我們可以出去;有了窗，我們可以不必出去。
In fact the fundamental difference between a door and a window has nothing to do with them being either entrances or exits. When it comes to the admiration of spring, it could be put this way: a door makes it possible for one to go out, whereas a window makes it possible for one not to have to.
窗子打通了大自然和人的隔膜，把風(fēng)和太陽(yáng)逗引進(jìn)來(lái)，使屋子里也關(guān)著一部分春天，讓我們安坐了享受，無(wú)需再到外面去找。
A window helps to pull down the partition between man and nature. It leads breezes and sunlight in, and keeps part of the spring in the house. It allows one to sit and enjoy the spring in peace, and makes it unnecessary to go looking for it outside.

the title of my speech is “what college education means to me”。now reflecting on the past two and half years of my college experience， 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 exposure 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 experience 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—explorer。
thank you。

Ladies and gentlemen ,
Good evening ,I am joy and glad to give you a speech about stress , yes , just the topic you see on the screen.
Psychologist tell us that stress is a state of worry caused by the problem of living , such as too much work or study , heavy responsibilities , and quickened pace of life .Statistics show that stress comes from every detail in our life .Financial problems , poor health , being laid off may be the stress that most adults now suffering .As students in the university , we are also under our special stress .
While study , having to take various tests and submit a project against a deadline may put a great pressure on us .And the things make us felt stressed may be our parents’s greater expectations on us than we could reach .Later , when we are likely to graduate , some other problems will also annoy us .I think we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and how we can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job .The chief problem we should face to is our atitude towards stress .people usually say they can not live in the sun except they escape from stress .It’s unwelcome ! yes , however , very necessary .Just image a world where stress does not exist and people lead their life in a very comfortable way .But is this kind of living condition as perfect as we hope ?
without stress , they may feel very satisfied with the current life but lack of power to discover new things .Too much satisfaction result in nothing except a countermarch of the society .No stress , no development .So a certain amount of stress is good .It can stimulate us and increase our level of alertness .And our answer to stress is another vital problem .How to do with ourselves when stress suddenly break into our life ? to wave the white flag and admit our unability , to give up to our ideality , or worstly , just to suicide as to put an end to everything …
Of cause not .The principle is to tackle with stress gentlely and harmoniously.We should try our best to release ourselves .Such as to do some exercise , to linsen to traditional chinese music or classical music to ease our minds and to learn to view these changes of life as challenges .it’s no use crying over spilt milk .Only to accept what has happened can solve the problem .
Ok , i think i was under large stress 3 minutes before , but now i am here and have finished my speech .
