顧秋蓓
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today I would like to begin with a story.
There was once a physical 1） therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a 2） census about mountain 3） gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of 4） poaching and being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we”ve ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas 5） cuddled their babies.
Yes, that”s a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Dian Fossey, who spent most of bet lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.
To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a 6） timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our ecoenvironment.
Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur---natural scenes aren”t natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges is devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.
All these 7） appalling（令人震驚的） facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been 8） eroding（侵蝕） our resources. Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the United Nations has made 2002 the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the world”s attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.
Now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations an: receiving donations--big notes, small notes or even coins--from housewives, 9） plumbers（水管工人）， ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and 10） invalids（殘疾人）， Some of them can not afford to send the money but they do. These are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals, who are suffering from ecological damage in their neighborhood. Why Because they care. Because they still want their Mother Nature back. Because they know it still belongs to them.
This kind of feeling that I have, ladies and gentlemen, is when it feels like it, smells like it, and looks like it, it”s all coming from a scene to remember, a scene to recall and to cherish.
The other night, as l saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs. I found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to some- thing else, someplace else. a place remembered, a place untouched, a field of grass where no one seem to have been except the deer.
And all those unforgettable scenes strengthened the feeling that it”s lime for us to do something, for our own and our coming generation.
Once again, I have come to think of Mrs. Dian Fossey be- cause it”s with her spirit, passion, courage and strong sense of our ecoenvironment that we are taking our next step into the world.
i’m grateful that i’ve been given this opportunity， at such a historic moment， to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past ×× years， a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well。
though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience， and only a tiny fragment of it at that， it still represents， i believe， the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past ×× years。
in my elementary years， there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons。
the teacher asked me to help her， and it was obvious that she expected a lot from me。 but as a young boy， restless， thoughtless， i always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself。
one day before the final exam， she came up to me and said， "could you please explain t“modities and new fashions appear every day。
new ideas， new information， new technologies。 people can talk with each other from any corner of the earth in a matter of seconds。 society is becoming more competitive。
words like individuality and creativity are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and efforts。 such is the era in which this generation ，grows and matures。
such is the era in which this generation will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it。 yet in the meantime， many problems still exist。
we learn that crimes take place in broad daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting。 we hear that there are still about 1 million children in this country who can’t even afford to go to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on dinner parties and luxury cars。
itake with me the memory of friday afternoon acm happy hours, known not for kegs of beer, but rather bowls of rainbow sherbet punch. over the several years that i attended these happy hours they enjoyed varying degrees of popularity, often proportional to the quality and quantity of the accompanying refreshments - but there was always the rainbow sherbert punch.
i take with me memories of purple parking permits, the west campus shuttle, checking my pendaflex, over-due library books, trying to print from cec, lunches on delmar, friends who slept in their offices, miniature golf in lopata hall, the greenway talk, division iii basketball, and trying to convince dean russel that yet another engineering school rule should be changed.
finally, i would like to conclude, not with a memory, but with some advice. what would a graduation speech be without a little advice, right? anyway, this advice comes in the form of a verse delivered to the 1977 graduating class of lake forest college by theodore seuss geisel, better known to the world as dr. seuss - here's how it goes:
thank you. thank you, president chen, chairmen ren, vice president chi, vice minister wei. we are delighted to be here today with a very large american delegation, including the first lady and our daughter, who is a student at stanford, one of the schools with which beijing university has a relationship. we have six members of the united states congress; the secretary of state; secretary of commerce; the secretary of agriculture; the chairman of our council of economic advisors; senator sasser, our ambassador; the national security advisor and my chief of staff, among others. i say that to illustrate the importance that the united states places on our relationship with china.
i would like to begin by congratulating all of you, the students, the faculty, the administrators, on celebrating the centennial year of your university. gongxi, beida. (applause.)
as i'm sure all of you know, this campus was once home to yenching university which was founded by american missionaries. many of its wonderful buildings were designed by an american architect. thousands of americans students and professors have come here to study and teach. we feel a special kinship with you.
i am, however, grateful that this day is different in one important respect from another important occasion 79 years ago. in june of 1919, the first president of yenching university, john leighton stuart, was set to deliver the very first commencement address on these very grounds. at the appointed hour, he appeared, but no students appeared. they were all out leading the may 4th movement for china's political and cultural renewal. when i read this, i hoped that when i walked into the auditorium today, someone would be sitting here. and i thank you for being here, very much. (applause.)
over the last 100 years, this university has grown to more than 20,000 students. your graduates are spread throughout china and around the world. you have built the largest university library in all of asia. last year, 20 percent of your graduates went abroad to study, including half of your math and science majors. and in this anniversary year, more than a million people in china, asia, and beyond have logged on to your web site. at the dawn of a new century, this university is leading china into the future.
i come here today to talk to you, the next generation of china's leaders, about the critical importance to your future of building a strong partnership between china and the united states.
the american people deeply admire china for its thousands of years of contributions to culture and religion, to philosophy and the arts, to science and technology. we remember well our strong partnership in world war ii. now we see china at a moment in history when your glorious past is matched by your present sweeping transformation and the even greater promise of your future.
just three decades ago, china was virtually shut off from the world. now, china is a member of more than 1,000 international organizations -- enterprises that affect everything from air travel to agricultural development. you have opened your nation to trade and investment on a large scale. today, 40,000 young chinese study in the united states, with hundreds of thousands more learning in asia, africa, europe, and latin america.
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 ma-ki-ng 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!
讓我們共同感受東西方的融合
吉卜林說過:東方是東方，西方是西方，二者永不相聚。但是一個世紀后的今天，東西方相匯了! 它們相聚在經濟領域，它們相聚在教育領域，它們相聚在藝術的殿堂。有人爭論說：這種融合需要我們在東方和西方之間做出選擇，但我卻堅信最美好的未來在于東方和西方創造性的融合。我們可以將西方的思想，觀念和技術變為我們自己所用的東西。
we are young. “how to spend the youth?” it is a meaningful question. to answer it, first i have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” youth is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. it’s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. it’s the matter of the will. it’s the freshness of the deep spring of life.
a poet said “to see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. several days ago, i had a chance to listen to a lecture. i learnt a lot there. i’d like to share it with all of you. let’s show our right palms. we can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. i have a short line of life. what about yours? i wondered whether we could see our future in this way. well, let’s make a fist. where is our future? where is our love, career, and life? tell me.yeah, it is in our hands. it is held in ourselves.
we all want the future to be better than the past. but the future can go better itself. don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. from the past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. we’ve learnt that we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
as what i said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. the past has gone. nothing we do will change it. but the future is in front of us. believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. and from today on, let’s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “we are the world, we are the future.”
一些人說“我們正在讀一本無窮的書中的第一章的第一節。”我不知道誰寫了這些話，但是我一直很喜歡它，因為它提醒了我，我們能夠創造我們想要的未來。
我們都是農夫。如果我們播下好的種子，我們將會豐收。如果我們的種子很差，有很多草籽，收割的將是無用的莊稼。如果我們什么也不播種，什么收獲也沒有。
我們是年輕的。“怎樣度過青春?”這是個有意義的問題。為了去回答它，我首先要問“從‘青春’這個詞中你能理解到什么?” 青春不是人生的一個時期，而是精神的一種狀態。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流.
一位詩人說“從一粒沙看世界，從一朵花看天堂，把無限放在你的手掌，永恒在一剎那里收藏”。幾天前，我有了一個聽講座的機會，從中我學到了很多東西?，F在，我想把這些與大家共享。讓我們伸出右手，我們可以看到手掌中的展示我們的愛，事業和生活的三條線。我在生活方面這條線很短，那你們的呢?我想知道我們是否可以用這種辦法去看我們的未來。好的，讓我們一起握拳。我們的未來在哪兒?我們的愛、事業和生活在哪兒?告訴我!是的，它們就在我們的手中。它們被我們自己掌握著。
in my 18 years of life, there have been many things. university days are the best part of them. i can never forget the days when i stepped into my university. i was impressed by its garden-like campus, its enthusiastic students and especially its learning atmosphere. i at once fell in love with it.
after the arduous military training, i get absolutely absorbed in my studies. the classes given by the teachers are excellent. they provide us with information not only from our textbooks but from many other sources as well. they easily arouse my insatiable desire to take in as much as i can.
frankly speaking, at first i had some difficulty following the teachers. however, through my own efforts and thanks to my teachers' guidance, i made remarkable progress. now i've benefited a lot from lectures and many other academic reports.
learning is a long process; i'll keep exploring in the treasure house of knowledge to enrich myself. this summer i got out of the ivory tower and entered the real world. a publishing house offered me a part-time job in compilation and revision.
at the beginning i was belittled by my colleagues. but they were really surprised when i translated seven english articles over 5,000 words on only one day. gradually, they began to look at me with respectful eyes. in their opinion i turned out to be a useful and trustworthy colleague.
i also realize that only those who bring happiness for others can be truly happy. so i often take part in activities concerning public welfare. i once went to a barren mountain village with my classmates. we taught the kids there who could not afford school. while showing them how broad and how civilized the outer world is, i was deeply touched by their eagerness to learn, their honesty and their purity. i couldn't control my tears on the day when we left. the precious experience with the poor kids made me aware of the responsibility on the shoulders of us, future teachers.
besides study and social practice, there are entertainments as well. i do body building every day, hoping to keep healthy and energetic. we also write a play and put it on in our spare time.
campus life is the most splendid time. but different people have different choices. the majority of students cherish their beautiful season and cherish the hope that one day they'll become outstanding. but there are indeed some students still under ignorance. they gather together for eating, drinking or playing cards. they're busy in searching for a girlfriend or a boyfriend. they forget completely about their mission as college students and the hope of their motherland.
finally, i do hope everybody can try their best to become a worthy citizen of the country. i do hope everybody can become the backbone of our nation and make great contributions to society!
譯文:享受生活、不忘使命
在我這18年的生命中，有著許多美好的經歷，而大學生活則是其中最難忘的一段。我永遠不會忘記剛剛跨進大學校園的那幾天:花園一樣的校園，熱情活躍的學生，特別是那里的學習氣氛，給我留下了深刻的印象。
經過了一段艱辛的軍事訓練后，我完全融入到了學習中。老師的講課真是棒極了。他們傳授給我們的不僅是課本上的知識，還包括其他各種各樣的信息。我渴望獲得盡可能多的知識，是老師激發起了我這個不能滿足的欲望。
坦率地說，一開始我還不能跟上老師的講課。但是，通過我自己的努力以及老師的指導，我取得了巨大的進步。我從老師的授課和其他許多學術報告中獲益匪淺。
學習是個循序漸進、長期的過程，我會在知識的寶庫中不斷探索，豐富自我。今年暑假，我跨出象牙塔，進入并接觸到了真正的社會。一個出版社給了我編輯和校對的兼職工作。
工作初期，同事們都礁不起我。但是，當我在一天之內翻譯完7篇的英語文章后，他們真的是大吃一驚。漸漸地，他們開始用尊敬的眼光看待我。他們認為，我變成了一個有用并值得信賴的好同事。
我也同樣意識到，只有那些為別人帶來幸福的人才能真正的幸福。因而，我經常參加有關公眾福利享業的活動。
有一次，我和同學去了一個貧痔的山區村莊。在那里，我們教那些沒錢上學的孩子。我向他們展示了一幅寬廣、文明的外部世界的畫面，但同時我也被那些孩子學習的渴望、他們的真誠和純潔深深打動了。在我們離開的那一天，我那不爭氣的眼淚禁不住流了下來。這次珍貴的經歷讓我們這些未來的教師意識到了自己肩上的責任重大。
除了學習和社會實踐，我還經常參加娛樂活動。我每天都鍛煉身體，希望保持健康和充滿活力。我們還在業余時間寫劇本并排練演出。
