I grew up in a very small country town in Victoria. I had a very normal, low-key kind of upbringing. I went to school, I hung out with my friends, I fought with my younger sisters. It was all very normal. And when I was 15, a member of my local community approached my parents and wanted to nominate me for a community achievement award. And my parents said, "Hm, thats really nice, but theres kind of one glaring problem with that. She hasnt actually achieved anything."And they were right, you know. I went to school, I got good marks, I had a very low-key after school job in my mums hairdressing salon, and I spent a lot of time watching "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Dawsons Creek." Yeah, I know. What a contradiction. But they were right, you know. I wasnt doing anything that was out of the ordinary at all. I wasnt doing anything that could be considered an achievement if you took disability out of the equation.

Here’s something else I observed -- intellectual horsepower and tolerance alone does not make a generation great: unless you can break out of the bubble of your own making -— technologically, geographically, racially, and socioeconomically -— to truly connect with the world around you. Because it matters.

No matter what your material success or personal circumstance, it matters. You cant breathe fresh air or protect your children from a changing climate no matter what you make. If your sister is the victim of domestic violence, you are violated. If your brother can’t marry the man he loves, you are lessened. And if your best friend has to worry about being racially profiled, you live in a circumstance not worthy of us. (Applause.) It matters.

So be successful. I sincerely hope some of you become millionaires and billionaires. I mean that. But engage the world around you because you will be more successful and happier. And you can absolutely succeed in life without sacrificing your ideals or your commitments to others and family. I’m confident that you can do that, and I’m confident that this generation will do it more than any other.

Look to your left, as they say, and look to your right. And remember how foolish the people next to you look -- (laughter) -- in those ridiculous hats. (Laughter.) That’s what I want you to remember. I mean this. Because it means you’ve learned something from a great tradition.

各位领导、老师、同学：

大家好! 在张主席的指导下，英语教研组长赵瑞亮老师、八年级英语互研组长陈莲洁老师及全体八年级英语教师精心筹备了本次英语朗读比赛。这次比赛，既是对我们英语教师教学水平的一次集中检验，也是对全体同学英语学习水平和学习成效的一次精彩展出，它对我们的英语教学和校园文化必将产生深远的影响。

令我高兴和激动的是，在这次活动中，我们的老师付出了自己的辛劳和智慧，我们的同学展示了自己的聪慧和睿智。特别是在今天的竞技场上，流利的口语展现了你们英语素养，娴熟的朗读技巧展现了你们的英语潜能，你们非凡的表现，铸就了本次活动的精彩。

我想，每一位参赛选手都会有这样的感觉：真正带给我们幸福体验的不只是今天的比赛，而是准备过程中的付出和辛劳。 在中学阶段学好英语，特别是拥有一口标准流畅的英语口语，是你们在未来的人生之旅中占尽先机的通行证。虽然各种高考英语的改革可能对部分家长、同学产生了一定的影响，但你们要记住，在全球一体化的今天，国际接轨的频率越来越高，英语作为国际通用语，它的国际地位永远不容忽视， 我们衷心希望全体同学能够以今天的英语朗读比赛为契机，努力练就自己英语口语的超强本领，为自己今后走向社会积聚必要的基础和能量。最后，让我再次代表学校对位这次活动的成功举办而付出辛劳的各位老师和同学表示衷心的感谢，对各位参赛选手的精彩表现表示衷心的祝贺。

谢谢大家!

I deeply respect and honor women who choose to work inside the home full-time to care for their families. We never want to discourage that incredible calling, but we must also ensure that every woman has the freedom to work outside of the home – if they so choose.

Therefore, in order to empower women to reach our full economic potential, we must embrace four fundamental changes that will propel us into the future.

First, as leaders in both business and government, we must pave the way in modernizing the workplace.

While the percentage of working women has dramatically increased, corporate expectations have remained all-too stagnant.

Today, in the United States, women now comprise 47 percent of the workforce.

In the vast majority of American homes with children, all parents work – and in 40 percent of households, women are the primary breadwinners.

Yet, work environments and social institutions still largely operate on a single-earner mindset, in which one parent – traditionally the mother – stays at home to provide full time care.

All too often, our workplace culture has failed to treat women with appropriate respect. This takes many forms, including harassment, which can never be tolerated.

Traditional and rigid corporate culture also fails working mothers – and fathers – who work long and often wildly unpredictable hours and get little time off.

Too many mothers dread telling their boss they must stay home to take care of a sick child – and many must go back to work just weeks after having a new baby – because they can’t afford not to.

Every day, working parents are forced to make hard but unavoidable choices.

ladies and gentlemen, good morning! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. man’s life is a proceof growing up, actually i’m standing here is a growth. if a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then i grow up along with these choices. once i hope i can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know i come here, now i wonder what the future holds for me. when i come to this school, i told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. following i will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job. once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” i will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these procei will combine learning with doing. if i can achieve this “future”, i think that i really grow up. and i deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future. how to say future? maybe it’s a nice wish. lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.

中文大意: 女士们，先生们，上午好。我很高兴在这里为大家作一个简短的讲话。 人的一生是一个成长的过程，事实上，我现在站在这里也是一次成长。如果一个人的一生必须面临不同的选择，那么我就是伴随着这些选择成长起来的。曾经我盼望将来能上大学，然而那已经过去了，现在我在这儿，只想知道我的未来会是什么样的。 当我来到这所学校，我告诉我自己：我不久的将来都从这里开始。接着我要学习如何做人，如何做一个正直的人，并且拥有一个健康的体魄，能承担重要的任务，能独立思考，思想开放，心思缜密，有判断是非的能力，有一份不错的工作。 我的老师曾经告诉我说：“你不是在修补而是在创造;永远不要忘记你向人们所展示的是你的思想，而不是你的手艺。”我会将我的性格，兴趣爱好和能力一起融入到学习中去。在这过程中，我边学习边实践。如果我能实现这个“未来”，我就认为我真的成长了。并且我深信我的亲人，好朋友以及爱会使我的未来更完美，更幸福。 如何来解释未来呢? 也许那只是一个美好的愿望。让我们下定决心，坚持到底，那我们的人生一定能过得很精彩。

You might never fail on the scale I did, but some failure in life is inevitable. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.

Failure gave me an inner security that I had never attained by passing examinations. Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way. I discovered that I had a strong will, and more discipline than I had suspected; I also found out that I had friends whose value was truly above the price of rubies.

The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.

Universities have a critical role to play in helping our country tackle this challenge, and I want to thank everyone at WashU who has been part of that work.

There really is no time to waste. The problems driven by climate change are getting worse – and that’s something you’ve seen right here during your lifetime.

The recent Mississippi River floods have affected life in St. Louis and they have devastated farmers across the Midwest. Those types of natural disasters will continue to get more severe with climate change, according to the best scientific data.

The trouble is too many politicians aren’t interested in hard science. They’re only interested in political science and winning their next election. So they ignore the data, they try to cut funding for climate research – because they know it will undermine their political argument. Sometimes they even try to block public employees from uttering the words – climate change.

You can’t make this stuff up. You just have to wonder, what are they trying to hide? And the only conclusion I have drawn is that they’re either hiding their own ignorance or their own bad faith.

Either way, when government tries to gag scientists and censor our conclusions, watch out and speak up.

ou know what I do have: two hands and two feet. I have a brain in my head and air in my lungs, and what else do I really need?Like what else do you really need to begin a today to lead the life you know you are meant to lead? You know in your heart what it is. And what more do you need to change before you step into that? I stood up, and I looked at them, and then next feeling which has been the biggest resource in my life since - “gratitude”.You can either pick one thing in life, resentment or gratitude, get on the side, I promise you. I looked at that moment and realized I may not have my mother ever again, but I had these resources. I had myself and I could go forward.

There’s Prospero in the Tempest, while the Duke of Milan he wishes quote to only be transported and wrapped in the secret study and he feels his library large enough. This, however, creates the opportunity for this evil brother to stage a coup, landing him on a remote island were to be sure his dark arts mastered in secret study come in handy, as may yours.

Or there’s Ferdinand, king of Love’s Labors Lost, who enlisted three subordinates to join him as quote brave conquerors who will forswear the baser impulses of love, food and sleep in order to study and learn only to be confounded in his dedication when he finds himself falling in love.

I suspect that many of you during your time here have lived closer to the experience of Ferdinand than to the experience of Prospero.

The advent of modern American university which largely happened in the last century has been the institutionalization of that human dream and this little physical space in which we gather together this morning is in many respects the near perfect fulfillment of that human vision. I know no other that can match it.

The columns, pillars, pediments, demes, classical inscriptions ascending steps, granite and limestone and marble and brick facades, which surround us convey the message that this is its own universe, a place governed by strictly observed code of academic inquiry, an insistence on open dialogue, informed by all-pervading skepticism and respect for the legacy of human achievement, created about a century ago, the Morningside campus represents the idea of an ordered, classical and even inward-looking world. To walk on to this campus is to feel one’s I.Q go up by 10 points.

敬爱的老师，亲爱的同学们：

大家好！

想不到今天，我能在台上演讲！对于我来说，今天是个特殊的日子。

你们知道吗？我今天有勇气来演讲并竞选班长，是因为我有故事要告诉大家。上次班级大扫除的时候，由于废纸旧卷太多。很多卷子都被当做垃圾扔到了废物箱里。我带领着几个同学把那些“废纸”打开，找出了许多有用的资料，幸亏我的细心，不然上课可就完了。

世上无难事，只怕有心人。仅这一点，我就符合一个班长的素质。

上学期，学校举办了读书节，班级海报设计的活动，就是以班为单位设计海报。我们三个联手设计海报，花了一个多星期的时间，终于做好了。可是我总觉得少了点什么，是没发挥好吗？不是。写跑题了？不是。没认真做？更不是。那是什么呢？哦！我知道了！缺少立体感，对！就是这个问题！后来我们班得奖了。精益求精是我的另一个品质。

我当上班长以后，如果学习有难题，我会帮助大家解决。课后有什么需要帮助，我可以帮大家完成，集体活动有什么困难，我也有办法帮助大家。

希望同学们支持我，谢谢大家！

尊敬的各位领导、老师，亲爱的同学们：

你们好!

我是校区商贸管理系的一名学生，我叫，很荣幸能在这里代表我校全体同学演讲，伴着温暖的春风，我们又迎来了新的一天。我们的生活是朝气蓬勃的。因为，我们是新一代的社会接班人。

舞蹈、运动，对于我们的意义是不言而喻的：

舞蹈是全面实施素质教育的重要体现，也是学校精神文明建设的具体体现。

我们需要健康的体魄和充沛的精力，才能完成我们的学业;

我们需要运动的乐曲和跳跃的节拍，才能感受学校的集体生活;

我们需要欢快的歌谣和灿烂的笑容，才能感恩我们的父母。

我们需要德、智、体的全面发展，才能成为中华民族伟大事业的接班人。

同学们，舞蹈是生命中的阳光。丰富多彩的舞蹈活动不仅可以强健我们的身体，同时也能磨练我们的意志，培养持之以恒、适应各种环境、克服困难、团结协作的精神。良好的身体素质更是学习和工作的前提和保证。希望全体师生在紧张的工作、学习之余，积极参加体育锻炼。真正把舞蹈活动融入到每天的工作、学习、生活中去，用健康的身心永葆事业的青春。

同学们，让我们每一个人都动员起来，积极参与，认真训练，规范动作，努力提高我们学校舞蹈活动的质量和水平。

同学们，舞蹈的精神鼓舞着人类，它赋予我们信念、勇气和信心，召唤着我们奋勇前进。舞蹈体操赛场上的壮观神圣和中国健儿们取得的无上荣耀令我们仰视。那么，就让我们以参加的梦想与光荣，赛好我们青春律动的舞蹈!

努力吧，同学们。谢谢大家!

I encourage you to look up the scene on YouTube – but not right now – because it’s still a very funny piece. And it’s funny because it’s ridiculous, but also because it contains a kernel of truth. And the truth applies not only to college presidents, but to all of us.

How many times have we decided we’re against an idea before we’ve even heard it? How guilty are we of deciding “I’m against it” without even knowing what “it” is?

Many times, we know what we’re against based on who is saying it. If an idea comes from a certain public figure, politician, or media outlet, we already know how we feel. Partly this is because our public discourse has become so predictable. We’ve lost the capacity for surprise, for revelation.

Speaking of predictable, here is the moment where an ambassador of an older generation – that would be me – tells millennials – most of you – about the evils of social media! But hear me out…

Obviously, social media has transformed our lives and our relationships. It obviously has many advantages, allowing us to share news and information quickly with people around the world. But it also heightens our sense of outrage and speeds up arguments, depriving us of the time and space for careful reflection.

Bombarded with notifications, pressured to respond before the media cycle turns over, we tap out our position – our opposition – in seconds. It’s easy to be against something in fewer than 280 characters. It’s far more difficult to articulate what you are for – and to do it at warp speed.

as a student here, I was blessed to have the extraordinary Duke Health System looking after me – somebody say Amen for the Duke Health System. But this isn’t accessible to everyone. What we have here is an anomaly, when it should be what we’re all accustomed to.

As the President of a Level 1…yeah, come on now. Give it up. As the President of a Level 1 Trauma Center’s Foundation, I saw firsthand the physical and financial devastation which can overwhelm an individual and their family when basic healthcare is not available or accessible. Chronic conditions run rampant. Genetic disorders go undiagnosed and contagious conditions, like the measles’ outbreak we’re currently experiencing, stop being the exception and instead become an epidemic.

But it is through deliberate exposure that we develop empathy for those who appear different than us, that we see that adversity is all-encompassing. Those house calls were not accidental from my father. They weren’t because he couldn’t find a sitter or because he thought I was bored. They were there to prepare me and to open my eyes to the simple fact: But there, but for the grace of the universe, anyone of us could be adversely affected.

That’s why it is incumbent upon each of us – each of you – to not only get out of your comfort zones, but find the power in discomfort itself. And sustain your own health so that you can not only help assuage the discomfort of others, but so that you can lead an informed and compassionate life.

尊敬的老师,亲爱的同学们:

大家好!

我是(五)一班的一名学生,名叫。今天走上这个讲台只有一个目地，

那就是为了竞选班长。

我是一个，性格开朗.成绩优逸的一个学生,在同学之中也具有领导性作用,这可能是我当了几回班长,知道怎样带领大家。有什么不对之处，告诉我，我会尽力的改正错误的。

如果竞选上了班长，我会：1.把班上的秩序调整好;2.和各个班干部一起帮助班上成绩不好的同学把成绩提高;3.协助老师一起管理班上的大小事件等。如果我没有竞选上班长，我也不会这样轻易的放弃的，而且，我会在一年中让大家看到我进步的成果的。我会更上一层楼的!

请大家行动起来吧!为我投上你们手里那珍贵的一票吧，给我一次锻炼我的机会吧!

谢谢大家!

I am for the robust and free exchange of ideas, as essential to the mission of a great university as it is to the health of our democracy.

I am for a world where we welcome the immigrant, the poor, and the forgotten; we did [do] not shut them out or silence them; a world where showing empathy and understanding is considered the true hallmark of success, of a life well-lived.

That is what I am for.

Yale’s mission says, in part, that we are “committed to improving the world today and for future generations.” That commitment does not end at graduation.

Soon you will leave Yale and, as Robert Penn Warren, who studied and taught at Yale, wrote, “You will go into the convulsion of the world, out of history and into history.”

Indeed, you’ll go into history and make history.

敬爱的老师，亲爱的同学们：

大家好!我叫刘宇。这次我很荣幸能站在讲台上进行英语科代表的竞选。这次，我要通过我的努力，成为老师的助手，同学的榜样，我相信我一定能竞选上英语科代表这个职务。

一个人最可怜的是无知，最可悲的是自私，最可敬的是拼搏。不管我竞选成功与否，我都会让自私、无知与我无缘。只有那一股子拼劲，为大家，为班级做事。我在每次的英语考试中都能达到95分以上，成绩很不错，此外，我有着强烈的责任心，有丰富的经验，可以帮助老师做一些力所能及的事。如果我竞选成功，我一定会全心全意地为同学服务。每天早上，我会带领同学们进行早读，并把同学的作业收齐。在课上，我会带头积极举手发言;课下，如果有同学来问我不会的题，我也一定会耐心爽快地回答。如果遇到了一些难题，我会组织其他的同学共同探讨，并寻求老师的帮助。正因为如此，我有信心做好一名英语科代表。

假如我落选了，我也不会伤心，因为那说明我还有许多缺点，我将继续自我完善，因为每一个失败都会提醒我下次努力。俗话说失败乃成功之母，我还会继续努力，找出自己的不足并及时改正，争取下次能竞选上。

希望大家支持我，投出手中神圣的一票吧!谢谢大家!

各位领导、老师、同学们：

my name is richard daphne. i have over 30 years in different sizebusinesses, with many ups and downs. my question is for ivanka.what do you feel has been your biggest challenge, most exciting success? mrs.

as an entrepreneur you try to balance yourown time, energy, focus, especially when you think big. you sometimes have to slow yourself down. so, to not -- to impose thediscipline on yourself to enable you to achieve the growth youwant, especially in the early days, you have limited people. you arejust launching a product or a service. you hopefully feel thatearly momentum. when you are an entrepreneur you have to be a visionary. we also have to be an secured her. successfulentrepreneurs are both. they dream big. they think big. they also are highly pragmatic, able to execute at the task at hand.sometimes there is an imbalance. i think for anyone to besuccessful, they have to reconcile those things. ultimately we were talking about it, in terms of recruitment, you are as good as your people. investing in your teams, your employees, making sureyou have cultivated a group that complements you, that pushesyou , that will enable you to succeed. for me, success that is scaled and done tremendously well is because they have a great team and great people.

it is been incredible to hear so many stories.during the two years prior campaigning, traveling around the country. one of the unique things about this experience, my father was running for president. people would come up to youwherever you were and tell you their stories. with suchtremendous detail, and tell you of their hardest challenges, and share with you things in a way they neither -- never would have.they would never open themselves up to you in the same way theydo during the process of a campaign. now today, being part of this administration. i feel blessed for the candor in which people share their ideas and personal stories. linda and i were together in baltimore just days after the inauguration. we did a roundtable with small business owners, predominantly female, hosted by the national urban league. one of those women who actually i brought her to the white house a few months later is named lisa phillips. she had a smalls ness. she told me her storyand i think -- we were all crying. it was so amazing. she started out homeless. she is now engaged. this spring she got her mastersdegree. she has a small but thriving small business and party planning. she is volunteering with homeless youth in baltimore. so this is -- these types of stories forever change you. it is unbelievable to hear the purser variants, the grant, the energy. i know she is going to make an enormous impact not just in her business but her community. we talk about small business, how it is going to grow our economy and benefit american workers, butthe amount of philanthropy being done on the local level by small business is a norm is enormous. im sure each of you can share your own stories just about how you are able to give act and you do in such a tremendous way. lisa story was moving to me.
