but when i saw a senior education, i can be very proud to tell you that i have no regrets today is who leaves this determination to do so is she, an ordinary teacher, a bit ordinary private kindergarten teachers - teachers twenty years ago since she labeled as "child king" crown, it is destined to accompany her with the ordinary, there is no substantial income, no enjoyment of luxury, there are only busy life and shoulder heavy responsibilities, in this extraordinary early childhood education position, has spent more than two dozen spring and autumn annals, he no regrets, she "does not obliterate the heart of love," as a motto to inspire, and remind ourselves to constantly improve themselves. 20 years ago, a woman, in the absence of any conditions with the help of a man propped up this banner, what she has insisted this is love, love of children is a love of education, for many years, her rain or shine, as she said, so the teacher, i extraordinary, and so the teacher, i am rich, and so the teacher, i am happy, and so the teacher, i have no reason to regret this life. she once said: every day to come into contact with a group of innocent children is a well-being.

therefore, she and the children often work together to build a rectangular square has become a high-rise buildings, with mickey mouse and donald duck into the tens of thousands of households crayon green with red chalk depicting the future world, using fine silk thread woven cloth beautiful fairy tale, it is so light in young children in the fading golden childhood, but her heart will not increase with age and the disappearance of the passage of time. i asked her when a teacher what is most needed? she answered without hesitation: "love", teachers are the implication of a love and dedication, the hearts of teachers, teachers of the situation should be like a rain shower flower leaves, and only in the growth of love in their hearts to their children is pure and beautiful of. her children were very small age, poor self-care and will not wear , xu things which are silently every day for her children were doing, i remember on one occasion, a child was accidentally nails poked feet, from a thick, she mouth to suction out the child, children trousers pulled the stool, she took the children to take home for the cautious good clothes.

everyone says: teachers is too ordinary, and yes, teachers are extraordinary, but the cause is great, because they are quietly engaged in the cause of the dedication and selfless sacrifice.

ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon! i?m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it, and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.

first i want to ask you some questions:

1,、 do you know what is youth?

2、 how do you master your youth?

youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind; it is not rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions: it is the freshness; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. nobody grows old merely by a number of years. we grow old by deserting our ideals.

years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. worry, fear, self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.

whether 60 of 16, there is in every human being?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the game of living. in the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young.

when the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.

thank you!

青春

青春不是指歲月,，而是指心態(tài),。粉嫩的臉，紅潤的唇,，矯健的膝并不是青春,。青春表現(xiàn)在意志的堅(jiān)強(qiáng)與懦弱。想象的豐富與蒼白,、情感的充沛與貧乏等方面,。青春是生命深處清泉的噴涌。

青春是追求,。只有當(dāng)勇氣蓋過怯弱,、進(jìn)取壓倒茍安之時(shí)，青春才存在,。果如此,，則60見之長者比20歲之少年更具青春活力。僅僅歲月的流逝并不能使他們衰老,。而一旦拋棄理想和

信念,，則垂垂老也。

歲月只能使皮膚起皺,。而一旦喪失生活的激情,，則連靈魂枯老，使人生枯如死水,，毫無活力,。 60歲長者也好，16歲少年也罷,，每個(gè)人的內(nèi)心深處都渴望奇跡,，都如孩子一般眨著期待的雙眼，期待著下一次,，期待著生活的情趣,，你我靈魂深處都有一座無線電中轉(zhuǎn)站------只有你我年輕，則總能聽到希望的呼喚,，總能發(fā)出喜悅的歡呼,，總能傳達(dá)勇氣的訊號(hào)，總能表現(xiàn)出青春的活力……

一旦青春的天線倒下,，你的靈魂即為玩世不恭之雪,、悲觀厭世之冰覆蓋,；即使你年方20.其實(shí)你已垂垂老也。而只要你青春的天線高高聳起,，就可以隨時(shí)接收到樂觀的電波-----即使你年過八旬,，行將就木，而你卻仍然擁有青春,，你仍然年輕,。

謝謝！

hello:

honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen. today,，we are gathering here to discuss a very hot issue. how to find harmony in a new age between man and nature? where modern science and technology are concerned i am only a layman i have to say. however, living in this "new age" , seeing my dear ones suffering from respiratory diseases from time to time, finding the beautiful colors of green and blue are being replaced by that of gray and pale, and realizing that our mother planet is getting more and more unhealthy; i cant help trying to offer my idea and my trivial efforts to look for the answer of the question.

as the ancient greek oracle goes: know thyself. i think in answering this above-mentioned question, this precondition is also very important.

who are we? this is a question, which should be answered not only by those specialists, but also by every one of human beings.

some people may proudly say: we are the masters of nature. it is true that the idea of "man can conquer nature" has dominated peoples mind for years, and it is true, man has kept acting like a master and doing whatever things he wants for thousands of years. however, as the consequence of this kind of "leadership" , now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyond his control. facts are really very ample. the

green house effect leaves islands and cities along the coast, such as this oriental pearl-shanghai, in danger of the disaster of being drowned; the holes of the ozone layer make the earth less suitable to live for some creatures including human beings; the phenomena of el nino and la nina leave the land with serious flood and drought, and the diseases, caused by pollution, are increasing at an incredible speed... seeing all these facts, can we still ignore the counterattack of nature? we are not the masters of nature. facing all the disasters made by ourselves, we, mankind as a whole should realize that we are just a normal member of the big family of nature. any mistreatment towards nature will meet only with the revenge from her.

by saying so, i do not mean we should give a sudden stop to any development. because that will result in a threat to the existence of human society. i mean we should treat nature equally, leaving the chance of existence and development to nature as we are obtaining the same thing, and thus we will get the situation of win-win.

i am very pleased to find that now more and more people, from every corner of the planet, have come to realize that harmony with nature is the only way to universal and continuous progress and prosperity. and i think that is why we come here from all over the country to discuss this topic today.

i want to end my speech by quoting from mr. nixon. "our destiny offers, not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity." the future is not ours to see of course. however, by seizing firmly the opportunities, by knowing clearly about ourselves, we, human beings, can doubtlessly achieve the real harmony with nature!

thank you.

this is the text of the commencement address by steve jobs, ceo of apple computer and of pixar animation studios, delivered on june 12, 20xx.

i am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. i never graduated from college. truth be told, i never graduated from college. this is the closest ive ever gotten to a college graduation. today i want to tell you three stories from my life. thats it. no big deal. just three stories.

斯坦福是世界上最好的大學(xué)之一,，今天能參加各位的畢業(yè)典禮,，我備感榮幸,。(尖叫聲)我從來沒有從大學(xué)畢業(yè)，說句實(shí)話,，此時(shí)算是我離大學(xué)畢業(yè)最近的一刻,。(笑聲)今天，我想告訴你們我生命中的三個(gè)故事,，并非什么了不得的大事件,，只是三個(gè)小故事而已。

the first story is about connecting the dots.

第一個(gè)故事關(guān)于串起生命中的點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴,。

i dropped out of reed college after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before i really quit. so why did i drop out?

退學(xué)是我這一生所做出的最正確的決定之一,。我在里德大學(xué)待了6個(gè)月就退學(xué)了，但之后仍作為旁聽生混了18個(gè)月后才最終離開,。我為什么要退學(xué)呢?

it started before i was born. my biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. she felt very strongly that i should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. except that when i popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. so my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "we have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" they said: "of course." my biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. she refused to sign the final adoption papers. she only relented a few months later when my parents promised that i would someday go to college.

故事要從我出生之前開始說起,。我的生母是一名年輕的未婚媽媽，當(dāng)時(shí)她還是一所大學(xué)的在讀研究生,，于是決定把我送給其他人收養(yǎng),。她堅(jiān)持我應(yīng)該被一對(duì)念過大學(xué)的夫婦收養(yǎng)，所以在我出生的時(shí)候,，她已經(jīng)為我被一個(gè)律師和他的太太收養(yǎng)做好了所有的準(zhǔn)備,。但在最后一刻，這對(duì)夫婦改了主意,，決定收養(yǎng)一個(gè)女孩,。候選名單上的另外一對(duì)夫婦，也就是我的養(yǎng)父母,，在一天午夜接到了一通電話：“有一個(gè)不請(qǐng)自來的男嬰,，你們想收養(yǎng)嗎?”他們回答：“當(dāng)然想?！笔潞?，我的生母才發(fā)現(xiàn)我的養(yǎng)母根本就沒有從大學(xué)畢業(yè),，而我的養(yǎng)父甚至連高中都沒有畢業(yè)，所以她拒絕簽署最后的收養(yǎng)文件,，直到幾個(gè)月后,，我的養(yǎng)父母保證會(huì)把我送到大學(xué)，她的態(tài)度才有所轉(zhuǎn)變,。

and 17 years later i did go to college. but i naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as stanford, and all of my working-class parents savings were being spent on my college tuition. after six months, i couldnt see the value in it. i had no idea what i wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. and here i was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. so i decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out ok. it was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions i ever made. the minute i dropped out i could stop taking the required classes that didnt interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

17年之后,，我真上了大學(xué)。但因?yàn)槟暧谉o知,，我選擇了一所和斯坦福一樣昂貴的大學(xué),，(笑聲)我的父母都是工人階級(jí)，他們傾其所有資助我的學(xué)業(yè),。在6個(gè)月之后,，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己完全不知道這樣念下去究竟有什么用。當(dāng)時(shí),，我的人生漫無目標(biāo),，也不知道大學(xué)對(duì)我能起到什么幫助，為了念書,，還花光了父母畢生的積蓄,，所以我決定退學(xué)。我相信車到山前必有路,。當(dāng)時(shí)作這個(gè)決定的時(shí)候非常害怕,，但現(xiàn)在回頭去看，這是我這一生所做出的最正確的決定之一,。(笑聲)從我退學(xué)那一刻起,，我就再也不用去上那些我毫無興趣的必修課了，我開始旁聽那些看來比較有意思的科目,。

it wasnt all romantic. i didnt have a dorm room, so i slept on the floor in friends rooms, i returned coke bottles for the 5 cent; deposits to buy food with, and i would walk the 7 miles across town every sunday night to get one good meal a week at the hare krishna temple. i loved it. and much of what i stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. let me give you one example:

reed college at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. because i had dropped out and didnt have to take the normal classes, i decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. i learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. it was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science cant capture, and i found it fascinating.

這件事情做起來一點(diǎn)都不浪漫,。因?yàn)闆]有自己的宿舍，我只能睡在朋友房間的地板上;可樂瓶的押金是5分錢,，我把瓶子還回去好用押金買吃的;在每個(gè)周日的晚上,，我都會(huì)步行7英里穿越市區(qū)，到harekrishna教堂吃一頓大餐,，我喜歡那兒的食物,。我跟隨好奇心和直覺所做的事情，事后證明大多數(shù)都是極其珍貴的經(jīng)驗(yàn),。我舉一個(gè)例子：那個(gè)時(shí)候,，里德大學(xué)提供了全美國最好的書法教育。整個(gè)校園的每一張海報(bào)，每一個(gè)抽屜上的標(biāo)簽,，都是漂亮的手寫體,。由于已經(jīng)退學(xué)，不用再去上那些常規(guī)的課程,，于是我選擇了一個(gè)書法班,，想學(xué)學(xué)怎么寫出一手漂亮字。在這個(gè)班上,，我學(xué)習(xí)了各種字體,，如何改變不同字體組合之間的字間距，以及如何做出漂亮的版式,。那是一種科學(xué)永遠(yuǎn)無法捕捉的充滿美感,、歷史感和藝術(shù)感的微妙，我發(fā)現(xiàn)這太有意思了,。

none of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. but ten years later, when we were designing the first macintosh computer, it all came back to me. and we designed it all into the mac. it was the first computer with beautiful typography. if i had never dropped in on that single course in college, the mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. and since windows just copied the mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. if i had never dropped out, i would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when i was in college. but it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

當(dāng)時(shí),，我壓根兒沒想到這些知識(shí)會(huì)在我的生命中有什么實(shí)際運(yùn)用價(jià)值;但是10年之后，當(dāng)我們?cè)O(shè)計(jì)第一款macintosh電腦的時(shí)候,，這些東西全派上了用場(chǎng),。我把它們?nèi)吭O(shè)計(jì)進(jìn)了mac，這是第一臺(tái)可以排出好看版式的電腦,。如果當(dāng)時(shí)我大學(xué)里沒有旁聽這門課程的話，mac就不會(huì)提供各種字體和等間距字體,。自從windows系統(tǒng)抄襲了mac以后,，(鼓掌大笑)所有的個(gè)人電腦都有了這些東西。如果我沒有退學(xué),，我就不會(huì)去書法班旁聽,，而今天的個(gè)人電腦大概也就不會(huì)有出色的版式功能。當(dāng)然我在念大學(xué)的那會(huì)兒,，不可能有先見之明,，把那些生命中的點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴都串起來;但10年之后再回頭看，生命的軌跡變得非常清楚,。

again, you cant connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. you have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. this approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

再強(qiáng)調(diào)一次,，你不可能充滿預(yù)見地將生命的點(diǎn)滴串聯(lián)起來;只有在你回頭看的時(shí)候，你才會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這些點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴之間的聯(lián)系,。所以,，你要堅(jiān)信，你現(xiàn)在所經(jīng)歷的將在你未來的生命中串聯(lián)起來,。你不得不相信某些東西,，你的直覺、命運(yùn)、生活,、因緣際會(huì)……正是這種信仰讓我不會(huì)失去希望,，它讓我的人生變得與眾不同。

my second story is about love and loss.

第二個(gè)故事關(guān)于愛與失去,。

i was lucky — i found what i loved to do early in life. woz and i started apple in my parents garage when i was 20. we worked hard, and in 10 years apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. we had just released our finest creation — the macintosh — a year earlier, and i had just turned 30. and then i got fired. how can you get fired from a company you started? well, as apple grew we hired someone who i thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. but then our visions of the future began to spanerge and eventually we had a falling out. when we did, our board of directors sided with him. so at 30 i was out. and very publicly out. what had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

被蘋果開掉是我這一生所經(jīng)歷過的最棒的事情,。

我是幸運(yùn)的，在年輕的時(shí)候就知道了自己愛做什么,。在我20歲的時(shí)候,，就和沃茲在我父母的車庫里開創(chuàng)了蘋果電腦公司。我們勤奮工作,，只用了10年的時(shí)間,，蘋果電腦就從車庫里的兩個(gè)小伙子擴(kuò)展成擁有4000名員工，價(jià)值達(dá)到20億美元的企業(yè),。而在此之前的一年,，我們剛推出了我們最好的產(chǎn)品macintosh電腦，當(dāng)時(shí)我剛過而立之年,。然后,，我就被炒了魷魚。一個(gè)人怎么可以被他所創(chuàng)立的公司解雇呢?(笑聲)這么說吧,，隨著蘋果的成長,，我們請(qǐng)了一個(gè)原本以為很能干的家伙和我一起管理這家公司，在頭一年左右,，他干得還不錯(cuò),，但后來，我們對(duì)公司未來的前景出現(xiàn)了分歧,，于是我們之間出現(xiàn)了矛盾,。由于公司的董事會(huì)站在他那一邊，所以在我30歲的時(shí)候,，就被踢出了局,。我失去了一直貫穿在我整個(gè)成年生活的重心，打擊是毀滅性的.,。

i really didnt know what to do for a few months. i felt that i had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that i had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. i met with david packard and bob noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. i was a very public failure, and i even thought about running away from the valley. but something slowly began to dawn on me — i still loved what i did. the turn of events at apple had not changed that one bit. i had been rejected, but i was still in love. and so i decided to start over.

在頭幾個(gè)月,，我真不知道要做些什么。我覺得我讓企業(yè)界的前輩們失望了,，我失去了傳到我手上的指揮棒,。我遇到了戴維.帕卡德(普惠的創(chuàng)辦人之一)和鮑勃.諾伊斯(英特爾的創(chuàng)辦人之一)，我向他們道歉,，因?yàn)槲野咽虑楦阍伊?。我成了人人皆知的失敗者,，我甚至想過逃離硅谷。但曙光漸漸出現(xiàn),，我還是喜歡我做過的事情,。在蘋果電腦發(fā)生的一切絲毫沒有改變我，一個(gè)比特都沒有,。雖然被拋棄了,，但我的熱忱不改。我決定重新開始,。

i didnt see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. the heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. it freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

during the next five years, i started a company named next, another company named pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, toy story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. in a remarkable turn of events, apple bought next, i returned to apple, and the technology we developed at next is at the heart of apples current renaissance. and laurene and i have a wonderful family together.

我當(dāng)時(shí)沒有看出來,，但事實(shí)證明，我被蘋果開掉是我這一生所經(jīng)歷過的最棒的事情,。成功的沉重被鳳凰涅槃的輕盈所代替,，每件事情都不再那么確定，我以自由之軀進(jìn)入了我整個(gè)生命當(dāng)中最有創(chuàng)意的時(shí)期,。

在接下來的5年里,，我開創(chuàng)了一家叫做next的公司,，接著是一家名叫pixar的公司,，并且結(jié)識(shí)了后來成為我妻子的曼妙女郎。pixar制作了世界上第一部全電腦動(dòng)畫電影《玩具總動(dòng)員》,，現(xiàn)在這家公司是世界上最成功的動(dòng)畫制作公司之一,。(掌聲)后來經(jīng)歷一系列的事件,，蘋果買下了next，于是我又回到了蘋果,，我們?cè)趎ext研發(fā)出的技術(shù)成為推動(dòng)蘋果復(fù)興的核心動(dòng)力,。我和勞倫斯也擁有了美滿的家庭。

im pretty sure none of this would have happened if i hadnt been fired from apple. it was awful tasting medicine, but i guess the patient needed it.

sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. dont lose faith. im convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that i loved what i did. youve got to find what you love. and that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you havent found it yet, keep looking. dont settle. as with all matters of the heart, youll know when you find it. and, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. so keep looking until you find it. dont settle.

我非?？隙ǎ绻麤]有被蘋果炒掉,，這一切都不可能在我身上發(fā)生,。

生活有時(shí)候就像一塊板磚拍向你的腦袋，但不要喪失信心,。熱愛我所從事的工作,，是一直支持我不斷前進(jìn)的惟一理由。你得找出你的最愛,，對(duì)工作如此,，對(duì)愛人亦是如此。工作將占據(jù)你生命中相當(dāng)大的一部分,，從事你認(rèn)為具有非凡意義的工作,，方能給你帶來真正的滿足感。而從事一份偉大工作的惟一方法，就是去熱愛這份工作,。如果你到現(xiàn)在還沒有找到這樣一份工作,，那么就繼續(xù)找。不要安于現(xiàn)狀,，當(dāng)萬事了于心的時(shí)候,，你就會(huì)知道何時(shí)能找到。如同任何偉大的浪漫關(guān)系一樣,，偉大的工作只會(huì)在歲月的醞釀中越陳越香,。所以，在你終有所獲之前,，不要停下你尋覓的腳步,。不要停下。

my third story is about death.

第三個(gè)故事關(guān)于死亡,。

when i was 17, i read a quote that went something like: "if you live each day as if it was your last, someday youll most certainly be right." it made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, i have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "if today were the last day of my life, would i want to do what i am about to do today?" and whenever the answer has been "no" for too many days in a row, i know i need to change something.

在17歲的時(shí)候,，我讀過一句格言，好像是：“如果你把每一天都當(dāng)成你生命里的最后一天,，你將在某一天發(fā)現(xiàn)原來一切皆在掌握之中,。” (笑聲)這句話從我讀到之日起,，就對(duì)我產(chǎn)生了深遠(yuǎn)的影響,。在過去的33年里，我每天早晨都對(duì)著鏡子問自己：“如果今天是我生命中的末日,，我還愿意做我今天本來應(yīng)該做的事情嗎?”當(dāng)一連好多天答案都否定的時(shí)候,，我就知道做出改變的時(shí)候到了。

remembering that ill be dead soon is the most important tool ive ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. remembering that you are going to die is the best way i know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. you are already naked. there is no reason not to follow your heart.

提醒自己行將入土是我在面臨人生中的重大抉擇時(shí),，最為重要的工具,。

因?yàn)樗械氖虑椤饨绲钠谕⑺械淖饦s,、對(duì)尷尬和失敗的懼怕——在面對(duì)死亡的時(shí)候,，都將煙消云散，只留下真正重要的東西,。在我所知道的各種方法中,，提醒自己即將死去是避免掉入畏懼失去這個(gè)陷阱的最好辦法。人赤條條地來,，赤條條地走,，沒有理由不聽從你內(nèi)心的呼喚。

about a year ago i was diagnosed with cancer. i had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. i didnt even know what a pancreas was. the doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that i should expect to live no longer than three to six months. my doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctors code for prepare to die. it means to try to tell your kids everything you thought youd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. it means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. it means to say your goodbyes.

大約一年前,，我被診斷出癌癥,。在早晨7：30我做了一個(gè)檢查,，掃描結(jié)果清楚地顯示我的胰臟出現(xiàn)了一個(gè)腫瘤。我當(dāng)時(shí)甚至不知道胰臟究竟是什么,。醫(yī)生告訴我,，幾乎可以確定這是一種不治之癥，頂多還能活3至6個(gè)月,。大夫建議我回家,，把諸事安排妥當(dāng)，這是醫(yī)生對(duì)臨終病人的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)用語,。這意味著你得把你今后10年要對(duì)你的子女說的話用幾個(gè)月的時(shí)間說完;這意味著你得把一切都安排妥當(dāng),，盡可能減少你的家人在你身后的負(fù)擔(dān);這意味著向眾人告別的時(shí)間到了。

i lived with that diagnosis all day. later that evening i had a biopsy, where they stuck anendoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. i was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. i had the surgery and im fine now.

我整天都想著診斷結(jié)果,。那天晚上做了一個(gè)切片檢查,，醫(yī)生把一個(gè)內(nèi)窺鏡從我的喉管伸進(jìn)去，穿過我的胃進(jìn)入腸道,，將探針伸進(jìn)胰臟,，從腫瘤上取出了幾個(gè)細(xì)胞。我打了鎮(zhèn)靜劑,，但我的太太當(dāng)時(shí)在場(chǎng),，她后來告訴我說，當(dāng)大夫們從顯微鏡下觀察了細(xì)胞組織之后,，都哭了起來,，因?yàn)槟鞘欠浅：币姷模梢酝ㄟ^手術(shù)治療的胰臟癌,。我接受了手術(shù),，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)康復(fù)了。

this was the closest ive been to facing death, and i hope its the closest i get for a few more decades. having lived through it, i can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

no one wants to die. even people who want to go to heaven dont want to die to get there. and yet death is the destination we all share. no one has ever escaped it. and that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. it is lifes change agent. it clears out the old to make way for the new. right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

這是我最接近死亡的一次,，我希望在隨后的幾十年里,，都不要有比這一次更接近死亡的經(jīng)歷。在經(jīng)歷了這次與死神擦肩而過的經(jīng)驗(yàn)之后,，死亡對(duì)我來說只是一項(xiàng)有效的判斷工具,，并且只是一個(gè)純粹的理性概念，我能夠更肯定地告訴你們以下事實(shí)：沒人想死;即使想去天堂的人,，也是希望能活著進(jìn)去。(笑聲)死亡是我們每個(gè)人的人生終點(diǎn)站,，沒人能夠成為例外,。生命就是如此，因?yàn)樗劳龊芸赡苁巧詈玫脑煳?，它是生命更迭的媒介,，送走耄耋老者,，給新生代讓路。現(xiàn)在你們還是新生代,，但不久的將來你們也將逐漸老去,，被送出人生的舞臺(tái)。很抱歉說得這么富有戲劇性,，但生命就是如此,。

your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life. dont be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other peoples thinking. dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice. and most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. they somehow already know what you truly want to become. everything else is secondary.

你們的時(shí)間有限，所以不要把時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在別人的生活里,。不要被條條框框束縛,，否則你就生活在他人思考的結(jié)果里。不要讓他人的觀點(diǎn)所發(fā)出的噪音淹沒你內(nèi)心的聲音,。最為重要的是,，要有遵從你的內(nèi)心和直覺的勇氣，它們可能已知道你其實(shí)想成為一個(gè)什么樣的人,。其他事物都是次要的,。

when i was young, there was an amazing publication called the whole earth catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. it was created by a fellow named stewart brand not far from here in menlo park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. this was in the late 1960s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. it was sort of like google in paperback form, 35 years before google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

在我年輕的時(shí)候，有一本非常棒的雜志叫《全球目錄》(the whole earth catalog),，它被我們那一代人奉為圭臬,。這本雜志的創(chuàng)辦人是一個(gè)叫斯圖爾特.布蘭德的家伙，他住在menlo park,，距離這兒不遠(yuǎn),。他把這本雜志辦得充滿詩意。那是在60年代末期,，個(gè)人電腦,、桌面發(fā)排系統(tǒng)還沒有出現(xiàn)，所以出版工具只有打字機(jī),、剪刀和寶麗來相機(jī),。這本雜志有點(diǎn)像印在紙上的google，但那是在google出現(xiàn)的35年前;它充滿了理想色彩,，內(nèi)容都是些非常好用的工具和了不起的見解,。

stewart and his team put out several issues of the whole earth catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. it was the mid-1970s, and i was your age. on the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. beneath it were the words: "stay hungry. stay foolish." it was their farewell message as they signed off. stay hungry. stay foolish. and i have always wished that for myself. and now, as you graduate to begin anew, i wish that for you.

圖爾特和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)做了幾期《全球目錄》，快無疾而終的時(shí)候,，他們出版了最后一期,。那是在70年代中期，我當(dāng)時(shí)處在你們現(xiàn)在的年齡,。在最后一期的封底有一張清晨鄉(xiāng)間公路的照片,，如果你喜歡搭車冒險(xiǎn)旅行的話，經(jīng)常會(huì)碰到的那種小路,。在照片下面有一排字：物有所不足,，智有所不明(stay hungry,，stay foolish.求知若饑，虛心若愚)這是他們?？母鎰e留言,。物有所不足，智有所不明——我總是以此自省?，F(xiàn)在,，在你們畢業(yè)開始新生活的時(shí)候，我把這句話送給你們,。

stay hungry. stay foolish.

thank you all very much

求知若饑,，虛心若愚。

非常感謝!

英文演講稿 英文演講稿一分鐘篇六

the president:

good morning. as families across the country enjoy the summer, americans can be optimistic about our economic future. in the past four years, our economy has been through a lot: we faced a stock market decline, a recession, corporate scandals, an attack on our homeland, and the demands of an ongoing war on terror.

to grow the economy and help american families, we acted by passing the largest tax relief in a generation. and today, thanks to the tax relief and the efforts of americas workers and entrepreneurs, our economy is strong and growing stronger.

this past week, we learned that america added over 200,000 new jobs in july. since may of 20xx, weve added nearly 4 million new jobs. the unemployment rate is down to 5 percent, below the average of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. and more americans are working today than ever before in our nations history.

recent economic reports show that our economy is growing faster than any other major industrialized nation. small businesses are flourishing. workers are taking home more of what they earn. real disposable personal income has grown by over 12 percent since the end of 20xx. inflation is low and mortgage rates are low. and over the past year, the home ownership rate in america has reached record levels.

the tax relief stimulated economic vitality and growth and it has helped increase revenues to the treasury. the increased revenues and our spending restraint have led to good progress in reducing the federal deficit. last month we learned that the deficit is now projected to be $94 billion less than previously expected. i set a goal of cutting the deficit in half by 20xx, and we are ahead of pace to meet that goal.

to continue creating jobs and to ensure that our prosperity reaches every corner of america, were opening markets abroad for our goods and services. this past week, i was proud to sign the central american-dominican republic free trade agreement. this historic agreement will level the playing field for americas workers and farmers, and open up a market of 44 million customers for products made in the united states.

to keep our economy growing we also need affordable, reliable supplies of energy. next week in new mexico, ill sign a bipartisan energy bill that encourages conservation, expands domestic production in environmentally sensitive ways, spanersifies our energy supply, modernizes our electricity grid and makes america less dependent on foreign sources of energy. and next wednesday in illinois, ill sign a highway bill that will improve the safety of our roads, strengthen our transportation infrastructure and create good jobs.

our economy is strong, yet i will not be satisfied until every american who wants to work can find a job. so this coming tuesday i will meet with my economic team in texas to discuss our agenda to keep the economy moving forward. as congress considers appropriations bills this fall, we will work with the house and the senate to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely, or not at all.

we need to make the tax relief permanent, end the death tax forever, and make our tax code simpler, fairer and more pro-growth. well continue working on social security reform. social security is sound for todays seniors, but theres a hole in the safety net for our younger workers, so ill work with the congress to strengthen social security for our children and grandchildren. ill continue to press for legal reform to protect small businesses, doctors and hospitals from junk lawsuits. and we will work to make health care more affordable and accessible for all americans.

the american economy is the envy of the world and we will keep it that way. we will continue to unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of america, so more of our citizens can realize the american dream.

thank you for listening.
