(Excerpt 1)

Mr.President，校長先生

Ladies and Gentlemen，女士們,先生們:

I wish to thank President Rudenstine for inviting me to this old yet modern institution of the United States in this golden fall.我感謝陸登庭校長的邀請(qǐng),使我有機(jī)會(huì)在這美好的金秋時(shí)節(jié),來到你們這座美國古老而又現(xiàn)代化的學(xué)府.Since its founding some 360 years ago, Harvard has nurtured a great number of outstanding statesmen, scientists, writers and businessmen, including six of the American Presidents and over thirty Nobel Prize winners.The fact that Harvard was founded before the United States of America testifies to its position in the American history.哈佛建校三百六十年來,培養(yǎng)出許多杰出的政治家,科學(xué)家,文學(xué)家，和企業(yè)家,曾出過六位美國總統(tǒng),三十多位諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)獲得者.先有哈佛,后有美利堅(jiān)合眾國,這說明了哈佛在美國歷史上的地位.Harvard is among the first American universities to accept Chinese students.The Chinese educational, scientific and cultural communities have all along maintained academic exchanges with this university.Harvard has thus made useful contribution to the enhanced mutual understanding between the Chinese and American peoples.哈佛是最早接受中國留學(xué)生的美國大學(xué)之一.中國教育界,科學(xué)界,文化界一直同哈佛大學(xué)保持著學(xué)術(shù)交流.哈佛為增進(jìn)中美兩國人民的相互了解作出了有益的貢獻(xiàn).Mutual understanding is the basis for state-to-state relations.Without it, it would be impossible for countries to build trust and promote cooperation with one another.Since the establishment of diplomatic ties between China and the United States, the exchanges and mutual understanding between our two peoples have broadened and deepened steadily.However, this is not enough.To promote the development of China-U.S.relations, China needs to know the United States better and vice versa.相互了解,是發(fā)展國與國之間關(guān)系的前提.惟有相互了解,才能增進(jìn)信任,加強(qiáng)合作.中美建交以來,我們兩國人民之間的相互交流與了解在逐漸擴(kuò)大和加深,但還不夠.為了推動(dòng)中美關(guān)系的發(fā)展,中國需要進(jìn)一步了解美國,美國也需要進(jìn)一步了解中國.In the prolonged course of its development, China has formed its fine historical and cultural traditions, which have been either developed or sublated with the changes of the times and social progress.These traditions have exerted a profound impact on the values and way of life of the Chinese people today, and on China’s road of advance.Here, I would like to make some observations on the following aspects, which I hope will help you know China better.中國在自己發(fā)展的長河中,形成了優(yōu)良的歷史文化傳統(tǒng).這些傳統(tǒng),隨著時(shí)代變遷和社會(huì)進(jìn)步獲得揚(yáng)棄和發(fā)展,對(duì)今天中國人的價(jià)值觀念,生活方式和中國的發(fā)展道路,具有深刻的影響.這里,我想就以下一些方面談些看法,希望有助于諸位對(duì)中國的了解.First, the tradition of solidarity and unity.The Chinese nation is a big family composed of 56 nationalities.Since time immemorial, people of all our nationalities have established close-knit political, economic and cultural links and joined hands in developing the vast land of our country.China became a vast unified country more than 2,000 years ago.The age-old Chinese culture becomes a strong bond for ethnic harmony and national unity.Solidarity and unity are deeply inscribed in the hearts of the Chinese people as part of their national identity.Despite occasional divisions, ethnic harmony and national unity have remained the main stream in the history of the Chinese nation, and an important guarantee for China’s development and progress.The founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 marked an unprecedented great unity of the Chinese nation.A new type of relationship of equality, solidarity and mutual assistance among all our nationalities has been established.People of all our nationalities enjoy full rights and freedoms provided for by the law.In places where there is a high concentration of ethnic minorities, regional autonomy is in practice.These regions have witnessed continued economic and social development.All these have laid a solid political foundation for consolidated national unity.一是團(tuán)結(jié)統(tǒng)一的傳統(tǒng).中華民族是由五十六個(gè)民族組成的大家庭.從遙遠(yuǎn)的古代起,我國各族人民就建立了緊密的政治經(jīng)濟(jì)文化聯(lián)系,共同開發(fā)了祖國的河山,兩千多年前就形成了幅員廣闊的統(tǒng)一國家.悠久的中華文化,成為維系民族團(tuán)結(jié)和國家統(tǒng)一的牢固紐帶.團(tuán)結(jié)統(tǒng)一,深深印在中國人的民族意識(shí)中。中國歷史上雖曾出現(xiàn)過暫時(shí)的分裂現(xiàn)象,但民族團(tuán)結(jié)和國家統(tǒng)一始終是中華民族歷史的主流,是中國發(fā)展進(jìn)步的重要保障.新中國的成立,標(biāo)志著中華民族實(shí)現(xiàn)了空前的大團(tuán)結(jié).各民族之間建立了平等,團(tuán)結(jié),互助的新型關(guān)系.個(gè)民族人民依法享有各項(xiàng)權(quán)利和自由.在少數(shù)民族聚居的地方實(shí)行了區(qū)域自治.民族地區(qū)的經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)獲得不斷的發(fā)展.所有這些,為鞏固國家統(tǒng)一奠定了堅(jiān)實(shí)的政治基礎(chǔ).Second, the tradition of maintaining independence.Our ancestors always regarded the spirit of maintaining independence as the foundation of a nation.As one of the cradles of human civilization, China has all along maintained its cultural tradition without letup in its history of several thousand years.In modern times, the frequent bullying and humiliation by imperialist powers once weakened China.However, after a hundred years’ struggle of the entire Chinese nation, China has stood up again as a giant.This fully testifies to the indestructible strength of this independent national spirit of the Chinese people.Today, in finding a road of advance suited to us, we will proceed from our own national conditions to address the problems of how to attain economic, political and cultural development without blindly copying other countries’ models.In handing international affairs, we decide our positions and policies from an independent approach.The Chinese people cherish its friendship and cooperation with other peoples, and they also cherish their right to independence, which they have won through protracted struggles.二是獨(dú)立自主的傳統(tǒng).我們的先人歷來把獨(dú)立自主視為立國之本.中國作為人類文明發(fā)祥地之一,在幾千年的歷史進(jìn)程中,文化傳統(tǒng)始終沒有中斷.近代中國雖屢遭列強(qiáng)欺凌,國勢衰敗,但經(jīng)過全民族的百年抗?fàn)?又以巨人的姿態(tài)重新站立起來.這充分說明,中國人獨(dú)立自主的民族精神具有堅(jiān)不可摧的力量.今天,我們在探索自己的發(fā)展道路時(shí),堅(jiān)持從中國的國情出發(fā),而不照搬別國的模式.在處理國際事務(wù)中,我們采取獨(dú)立自主的立場和政策.中國人民珍惜同各國人民的友誼與合作,也珍惜自己經(jīng)過長期奮斗而得來的獨(dú)立自主權(quán)利.Third, the peace-loving tradition.Chinese thinkers of the pre-Qin days(over 2000 years ago)advanced the doctrine “l(fā)oving people and treating neighbors kindly are most valuable to a country”.This is a reflection of the aspiration of the Chinese people for a peaceful world where people of all countries live in harmony.Today, the Chinese people who are committed to modernization need more than ever a long-term international environment of peace and a favorable neighboring environment.China’s foreign policy is peace-oriented.We will establish and develop friendly relations and cooperation with all countries in the world on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, especially the principles of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit and non-interference in each other’s internal affairs.We still never impose upon others the kind of sufferings we ourselves once experienced.A developing and progressing China does not pose a threat to anyone.China will never seek hegemony even if it grows rich and strong in the future.China is always a staunch force for world peace and regional stability.三是愛好和平的傳統(tǒng).我國先前思想家就提出了 “親仁善鄰,國之寶也”的思想,反映了自古以來中國人民就希望天下太平,同各國人民友好相處.今天,專心制志進(jìn)行現(xiàn)代化建設(shè)的中國人民,更需要有一個(gè)長期的和平國際環(huán)境和良好的周邊環(huán)境.我國的對(duì)外政策,是以和平為宗旨的.我們堅(jiān)持在和平共處五項(xiàng)原則,特別是在相互尊重,平等互利,互不干涉內(nèi)政的原則基礎(chǔ)上,同世界各國建立和發(fā)展友好合作關(guān)系.我們絕不會(huì)把自己曾經(jīng)遭受欺凌的苦難加之于人.中國的發(fā)展與進(jìn)步,不會(huì)對(duì)任何人構(gòu)成威脅.將來中國富強(qiáng)起來了,也永遠(yuǎn)不稱霸.中國始終是維護(hù)世界和平與地區(qū)穩(wěn)定的堅(jiān)定力量.Fourth, the tradition of constantly striving to strengthen oneself.Through observing the changing nature of the universe and of all things, ancient Chinese philosophers proposed the following doctrine: “Heaven operates vigorously, and gentlemen exert to strengthen themselves unceasingly.” This idea has become an important moral force spurring the Chinese people to work hard for change and innovation.The fruits of China’s ancient civilization were brought about by the tireless efforts and hard work of the Chinese nation.In the past one hundred years or so, the Chinese people waged arduous struggles to lift themselves from their historical plight under semi-colonial and semi-feudal rule.Dr.Sun Yat-sen, China’s forerunner in the democratic revolution, was the first to put forward the slogan of “rejuvenation of China”.He led the Revolution of 1911 to overthrow the autocratic monarchy lasting several millennia in China.Under the guidance of Mao Zedong Thought, the Communist Party of China led the Chinese people in achieving China’s national independence and people’s liberation and in building China into a socialist country with initial prosperity.Today, guided by Deng Xiaoping Theory, the Chinese people are firmly pressing ahead with reform and opening-up and have achieved remarkable successes in the modernization drive.China has entered a period of its fastest and healthiest growth in this century.四是自強(qiáng)不息的傳統(tǒng).我們的先哲通過觀察宇宙萬物的變動(dòng)不居,提出了 “天行健,君子以自強(qiáng)不息”的思想,成為激勵(lì)中國人民變革創(chuàng)新,努力奮斗的精神力量。中國古代文明的發(fā)展,是中華民族艱苦奮斗,自強(qiáng)不息的結(jié)果.近百年來.為了擺脫半殖民地半封建的歷史境遇,中國人民進(jìn)行了艱苦卓絕,奮發(fā)圖強(qiáng)的斗爭.中國民主革命的先行者孫中山首先提出 “振興中華”的口號(hào),他領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的辛亥革命,推翻了在中國延續(xù)幾千年的君主專制制度.在毛澤東思想指引下,中國共產(chǎn)黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)中國人民實(shí)現(xiàn)了民主獨(dú)立和人民解放,并把中國建設(shè)成為初步繁榮昌盛的社會(huì)主義國家.今天,在鄧小平理論指引下,我國人民堅(jiān)定不移地實(shí)行改革開放,在現(xiàn)代化建設(shè)中取得舉世矚目的成就.中國進(jìn)入了百年來發(fā)展最快最好的歷史時(shí)期

(Excerpt 2)摘錄,引用

The reform and opening-up endeavour is an embodiment and a creative development of the Chinese spirit of constantly striving to strengthen oneself and change and innovation in modern times.We refer to our reform and opening-up as socialist reform and opening up because it is a self-improvement and development of the socialist system in China.Practice in the last twenty years has eloquently proved that we are going in the right direction, firm in conviction, steady in our steps and gradual in our approach when carrying out the reform and opening-up and that we have achieved tremendous succeeded.We have successfully overcome various difficulties and risks in the course of our advance without causing great social unrest.Rather, we have succeeded in greatly releasing and developing social productive forces and maintained social stability and an all-round round progress.改革開放,是中華民族自強(qiáng)不息和變革創(chuàng)新精神在當(dāng)代的集中體現(xiàn)和創(chuàng)造性的發(fā)展.我們把改革開放叫作社會(huì)主義改革開放,因?yàn)樗侵袊鐣?huì)主義制度的自我完善和發(fā)展.近二十年的實(shí)踐已充分證明,我們進(jìn)行改革開放的方向是正確的,信念是堅(jiān)定的,步驟是穩(wěn)妥的,方式是漸進(jìn)的,取得的成就是巨大的.雖然在前進(jìn)中也遇到這樣和那樣一些困難和風(fēng)險(xiǎn),但我們都順利地解決了,不僅沒有引起大的社會(huì)震動(dòng),而且極大地解放和發(fā)展了社會(huì)生產(chǎn)力,保持了社會(huì)穩(wěn)定和全面進(jìn)步.We are conducting a comprehensive reform with full confidence.Economically, we will speed up the establishment of a socialist market economy and realize industrialization, and the socialization, marketization and modernization of the economy.Politically, we will endeavor to develop socialist democracy, govern the country according to law, build a socialist country under the rule of law and ensure the full exercise of peoples’ rights to govern the country and manage social affairs.Culturally, we will work hard to develop a socialist culture that is national, scientific and popular, a culture that is oriented to modernization, to the world and to the future, adopt a strategy of rejuvenating China through science and education, and strive to raise the political and moral standards as well as scientific and cultural level of the entire nation.In a word, it is to build China into a prosperous, strong, democratic, and culturally advanced modern country.現(xiàn)在,我們正在滿懷信心地全面推進(jìn)改革.在經(jīng)濟(jì)上,要加快建立社會(huì)主義市場經(jīng)濟(jì)體制,實(shí)現(xiàn)工業(yè)化和經(jīng)濟(jì)的社會(huì)化,市場化,現(xiàn)代化;在政治上,要努力發(fā)展社會(huì)主義民主政治,依法治國,建設(shè)社會(huì)主義法制國家,保證人民充分行使管理國家和社會(huì)事務(wù)的權(quán)利;在文化上,要積極建設(shè)面向現(xiàn)代化,面向世界,面向未來的,民族的科學(xué)的大眾的社會(huì)主義文化,實(shí)行科教興國戰(zhàn)略,不斷提高全民族的思想道德素質(zhì)和科學(xué)文化素質(zhì).總起來說,就是要把中國建成富強(qiáng)民主文明的現(xiàn)代化國家.A county with a vast territory, a big population and a long history, China should make greater contribution to humanity.The Chinese people waged a dauntless struggle for one hundred years.They have effected great reforms and changes one after another to build China into a strong and prosperous country.They have worked to strengthen ethnic solidarity and achieve national reunification and to promote the lofty cause of world peace and development.In the final analysis, they have done all these for just one objective, that is, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and China’s new and greater contribution to humanity.中國作為疆域遼闊,人口眾多,歷史悠久的國家,應(yīng)該對(duì)人類有較大的貢獻(xiàn).中國人民所以要進(jìn)行百年不屈不撓的斗爭,所以要實(shí)行一次又一次的偉大變革,實(shí)現(xiàn)國家的繁榮富強(qiáng),所以要加強(qiáng)民族團(tuán)結(jié),完成祖國統(tǒng)一大業(yè),所以要促進(jìn)世界和平與發(fā)展的崇高事業(yè),歸根到底就是為了一個(gè)目標(biāo):實(shí)現(xiàn)中華民族的偉大復(fù)興,爭取對(duì)人類作出新的更大的貢獻(xiàn).

第三篇：比爾蓋茨在哈佛大學(xué)演講

I'm Harvard's Most Successful Dropout

我是哈佛最成功的輟學(xué)生--比爾.蓋茨在哈佛大學(xué)接受榮譽(yù)學(xué)位時(shí)的演講

Thank you.President Bok, former President Rudenstine, incoming President Faust,謝謝.博克校長、魯?shù)撬固骨靶ｉL、即將就任的福斯特校長、members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members of the faculty, parents, and especially, the graduates.哈佛理事會(huì)和督學(xué)委員會(huì)各位成員、各位教職員工、各位父母,特別是各位畢業(yè)生:

I've been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you I'd come back and get my degree.”

“父親,我一直對(duì)您說我會(huì)回到哈佛拿到我自己的學(xué)位.”為了說這句話,我等了三十多年.I want to thank Harvard for this honor.我要感謝哈佛給了我這個(gè)榮譽(yù).I'll be changing my job next year, and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume.我明年要換工作了,最終能在簡歷寫上一個(gè)大學(xué)學(xué)位是一件不錯(cuò)的事.I applaud the graduates for taking a much more direct route to your degrees.我為通過更直接的途徑獲得學(xué)位的畢業(yè)生喝彩.For my part, I'm just happy that the Crimson called me “Harvard's most successful dropout.”

而對(duì)我來說,哈佛校報(bào)稱我為“哈佛歷史上最成功的輟學(xué)生”,這也讓我同樣感到高興.I guess that makes me valedictorian of my own special class.I did the best of everyone who failed.我想這樣我就成了我這個(gè)特別屆別的畢業(yè)生中作告別演講的不二人選.我是失敗者中最為成功的.But taking a serious look back, I do have one big regret.但認(rèn)真回顧過去,我確實(shí)有著一大遺憾.I left Harvard with no real awareness of the awful inequities in the world-

當(dāng)我離開哈佛時(shí),我并沒真正有意識(shí)到這個(gè)世界存在著可怕的不平等現(xiàn)象.the appalling disparities of health, and wealth, and opportunity that condemn millions of people to lives of despair.人們在享受醫(yī)療保健、財(cái)富和機(jī)會(huì)等方面存在著嚴(yán)重不均,這讓數(shù)百萬人生活在絕望之中.I learned a lot here at Harvard about new ideas in economics and politics.我在哈佛學(xué)到了很多經(jīng)濟(jì)和政治方面的新思想,I got great exposure to the advances being made in the sciences.了解到很多科學(xué)上的重大進(jìn)步.But humanity's greatest advances are not in its discoveries-but in how those discoveries are applied to reduce inequity.可是,人類的最大進(jìn)步并不體現(xiàn)在發(fā)現(xiàn)和發(fā)明上,而是如何利用它們來消除不平等.Whether through democracy, strong public education, quality health care, or broad economic opportunity,不管通過何種方式--民主、強(qiáng)大的公共教育、優(yōu)質(zhì)的醫(yī)療保健,或者廣泛的經(jīng)濟(jì)機(jī)會(huì)--

reducing inequity is the highest human achievement.減少不平等才是人類的最大成就.I left campus knowing little about the millions of young people

cheated out of educational opportunities here in this country.當(dāng)我離開校園時(shí),并不知道美國有數(shù)百萬的青少年享受不到受教育的機(jī)會(huì),And I knew nothing about the millions of people living in unspeakable poverty and disease in developing countries.我也不知道在發(fā)展中國家有數(shù)百萬人生活在極度的貧困之中,受疾病威脅.It took me decades to find out.我用了幾十年的時(shí)間才明白了這些.You graduates came to Harvard at a different time.你們來哈佛的時(shí)代與我完全不同,You know more about the world's inequities than the classes that came before.你們比之前的學(xué)生更了解這個(gè)世界上存在的不平等.In your years here, I hope you've had a chance to think about how, in this age of accelerating technology,我希望你們過去幾年都曾經(jīng)認(rèn)真想過,在科技飛速發(fā)展的時(shí)代,we can finally take on these inequities, and we can solve them.應(yīng)當(dāng)如何應(yīng)對(duì)這樣的不平等,以及如何解決這些問題.Now, this task is open-ended.It can never be finished.But a conscious effort to answer this challenge can change the world.這是一個(gè)沒有盡頭的任務(wù),永遠(yuǎn)也不會(huì)做完,但只要我們自覺行動(dòng)起來迎接這個(gè)挑戰(zhàn),就可以改變這個(gè)世界.Yes, inequity has been with us forever, but the new tools we have to cut through complexity have not been with us forever.確實(shí),不平等現(xiàn)象一直與我們相伴,但以前我們沒有解決這個(gè)復(fù)雜問題的新工具.They are new.They can help us make the most of our caring-and that's

why the future can be different from the past.這是些新的工具,它們可以幫助我們盡可能地發(fā)揮我們的愛心.而正是因?yàn)槿绱?未來才會(huì)與過去有所不同.The defining and ongoing innovations of this age-biotechnology, the personal computer, and the Internet-

這個(gè)時(shí)代特有的,并不斷發(fā)展的新發(fā)明--生物科學(xué)、個(gè)人電腦、互聯(lián)網(wǎng)--

give us a chance we've never had before to end extreme poverty and end death from preventable disease.這些都給予我們前所未有的機(jī)會(huì)消滅貧困,消滅可預(yù)防性疾病造成的死亡.In line with the promise of this age, I want to exhort each of the graduates here to take on an issue,秉承這個(gè)時(shí)代帶給人類的希望,我想敦促在座的每一位畢業(yè)生,接受一個(gè)問題的挑戰(zhàn),a complex problem-a deep inequity, and become a specialist on it.Don't let complexity stop you.這是一個(gè)復(fù)雜的問題,那就是極度的不平等現(xiàn)象,并成為這方面的專家.不要讓問題的復(fù)雜性成為你的障礙.Be activists.Take on big inequities.I feel sure it will be one of the great experiences of your lives.行動(dòng)起來,向重大不平等現(xiàn)象發(fā)起挑戰(zhàn).我肯定這會(huì)成為你生命中最了不起的經(jīng)歷之一.You graduates are coming of age in an amazing time.你們這些正在成熟的畢業(yè)生處于一個(gè)了不起的時(shí)代.As you leave Harvard, you have technology that members of my class never had.就在你們離開哈佛的時(shí)候,你們掌握了我們這屆學(xué)生未曾掌握的技術(shù)手段.You have awareness of global inequity, which we did not have.你們了解全球的不平等現(xiàn)象,這也是我們當(dāng)時(shí)做不到的.And with that awareness, you likely also have an informed conscience

有了這種意識(shí),你很可能就會(huì)有明事理的良心.that will torment you if you abandon these people whose lives you could change with modest effort.如果無需花多大的努力你就可以改變某些人的生活,但你卻對(duì)他們置之不理,那你會(huì)受到良心的譴責(zé).You have more than we had;you must start sooner, and carry on longer.你們比我們有更多的優(yōu)勢,必須更早開始行動(dòng),并堅(jiān)持更久.And I hope you will come back here to Harvard 30 years from now

我希望你們在30年后再回到哈佛,and reflect on what you've done with your talent and your energy.回顧你們發(fā)揮自己的才能和精力所做的一切.I hope you will judge yourselves not on your professional

accomplishments alone,我希望你們不僅僅是以自己職業(yè)上的成就來評(píng)價(jià)自己,but also on how well you have addressed the world's deepest inequities,還要以你們?nèi)绾翁幚硎澜缟献钌钪氐牟黄降痊F(xiàn)象,on how well you treated people a world away who have nothing in common with you but their humanity.以你們?nèi)绾螌?duì)待那些與你們相距遙遠(yuǎn),同為人類一員,但除了此以外并沒有共同點(diǎn)的人來衡量自己的成功.Good luck.祝你們好運(yùn).

第四篇：哈佛大學(xué)演講

The Spider’s Bite

When I was in middle school, a poisonous spider bit my right hand.I ran to my mom for help—but instead of taking me to a doctor, my mom set my hand on fire.After wrapping my hand with several layers of cotton, then soaking it in wine, she put a chopstick into my mouth, and ignited the cotton.Heat quickly penetrated the cotton and began to roast my hand.The searing pain made me want to scream, but the chopstick prevented it.All I could do was watch my hand burn-one minute, then two minutes –until mom put out the fire.You see, the part of China I grew up in was a rural village, and at that time pre-industrial.When I was born, my village had no cars, no telephones, no electricity, not even running water.And we certainly didn’t have access to modern medical resources.There was no doctor my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite.For those who study biology, you may have grasped the science behind my mom’s cure: heat deactivatesproteins, and a spider’s venom is simply a form of protein.It’s cool how that folk remedy actually incorporates basic biochemistry, isn’t it? But I am a PhD student in biochemistry at Harvard, I now know that better, less painful and less risky treatments existed.So I can’t help but ask myself, why I didn’t receive one at the time?

Fifteen years have passed since that incident.I am happy to report that my hand is fine.But this question lingers, and I continue to be troubled by the unequal distribution of scientific knowledge throughout the world.We have learned to edit the human genome and unlock many secrets of how cancer progresses.We can manipulate neuronal activity literally with the switch of a light.Each year brings more advances in biomedical research-exciting, transformative accomplishments.Yet, despite the knowledge we have amassed, we haven’t been so successful in deploying it to where it’s needed most.According to the World Bank, twelve percent of the world’s population lives on less than $2 a day.Malnutrition kills more than 3 million children annually.Three hundred million people are afflicted by malaria globally.All over the world, we constantly see these problems of poverty, illness, and lack of resources impeding the flow of scientific information.Lifesaving knowledge we take for granted in the modern world is often unavailable in these underdeveloped regions.And in far too many places, people are still essentially trying to cure a spider bite with fire.While studying at Harvard, I saw how scientific knowledge can help others in simple, yet profound ways.The bird flu pandemic in the 2000s looked to my village like a spell cast by demons.Our folk medicine didn’t even have half-measures to offer.What’s more, farmers didn’t know the difference between common cold and flu;they didn’t understand that the flu was much more lethal than the common cold.Most people were also unaware that the virus could transmit across different animal species.So when I realized that simple hygiene practices like separating different animal species could contain the spread of the disease, and that I could help make this knowledge available to my village, that was my first “Aha” moment as a budding scientist.But it was more than that: it was also a vital inflection point in my own ethical development, my own self-understanding as a member of the global community.Harvard dares us to dream big, to aspire to change the world.Here on this Commencement Day, we are probably thinking of grand destinations and big adventures that await us.As for me, I am also thinking of the farmers in my village.My experience here reminds me how important it is for researchers to communicate our knowledge to those who need it.Because by using the science we already have, we could probably bring my village and thousands like it into the world you and I take for granted every day.And that’s an impact every one of us can make!

But the question is, will we make the effort or not?

More than ever before, our society emphasizes science and innovation.But an equally important emphasis should be on distributing the knowledge we have to those whoneeded.Changing the world doesn’t mean that everyone has to find the next big thing.It can be as simple as becoming better communicators, and finding more creative ways to pass on the knowledge we have to people like my mom and the farmers in their local community.Our society also needs to recognize that the equal distribution of knowledge is a pivotal step of human development, and work to bring this into reality.And if we do that, then perhaps a teenager in rural China who is bitten by a spider will not have to burn his hand, but will know to seek a doctor instead.［I have just been to Buckingham Palace where Her Majesty the Queen has asked me to form a new government, and I accepted.［我剛?cè)ミ^白金漢宮，女王陛下要我組建新政府，我接受了。］

In David Cameron, I follow in the footsteps of a great, modern prime minister.Under David's leadership, the government stabilized the economy, reduced the budget deficit, and helped more people into work than ever before.［我沿戴維·卡梅倫的足跡前行，他是一位偉大、現(xiàn)代的首相。在卡梅倫的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，政府穩(wěn)定了經(jīng)濟(jì)，降低了財(cái)政赤字，幫助比以往更多的人找到工作。］

But David's true legacy is not about the economy, but about social justice.From the introduction of same-sex marriage, to taking people on low wages out of income tax altogether.［但戴維真正的遺產(chǎn)并非搞經(jīng)濟(jì)，而是社會(huì)公正。他認(rèn)可同性婚姻，讓低收入人群徹底免交所得稅。］

David Cameron has led a one nation government and it is in that spirit that I also plan to lead.Because not everybody knows this, but the full title of my party is the Conservative and Unionist Party.And that word Unionist is very important to me.It means we believe in the Union.That precious, precious bond betweenEngland, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.［卡梅倫領(lǐng)導(dǎo)了一國政府，我將本著這種精神執(zhí)政。不是所有人都清楚，我所在的黨的全稱是保守和統(tǒng)一黨。統(tǒng)一一詞對(duì)我而言至關(guān)重要。這表明我相信統(tǒng)一，這是英格蘭、蘇格蘭、威爾士和北愛爾蘭之間十分珍貴的結(jié)合。］

But it means something else that is just as important.It means that we believe in a Union not just of the nations of the United Kingdom, but between all of our citizens.Every one of us, whoever we are and wherever we are from.［可它還意味著同樣重要的東西，它意味著我們不僅相信聯(lián)合王國的統(tǒng)一，還相信所有公民的統(tǒng)一，每個(gè)人，不論我們是誰，我們從哪里來。］

That means fighting against the burning injustice that if you are born poor, you will die on average nine years earlier than others.If you're black, you're treated more harshly by the criminal justice system than if you are white.［那意味著要反對(duì)迫切的不公正。如果你出身貧窮，就比其他人少活九年；如果你是黑人，相比于白人會(huì)受到司法體系更嚴(yán)厲的懲罰。］

If you're a white, working-class boy, you're less likely than anyone else in Britain to go to university.If you're at a state school, you're less likely to reach the top professions than if you were educated privately.［如果你是白人工人階級(jí)的男孩，在英國上大學(xué)的機(jī)會(huì)最低。如果你上國立學(xué)校，相比接受私立教育的人獲得頂尖工作的機(jī)會(huì)要少。］

If you are a woman, you will earn less than a man.If you suffer from mental health problems, there's not enough help to hand.If you're young, you'll find it harder than ever before to own your own home.［如果你是一個(gè)婦女，你賺的比男人少。如果你有精神疾病，會(huì)缺少幫助。如果你是年輕人，會(huì)比前人更難擁有自己的住房。］

But the mission to make Britain a country that works for everyone means more than just fighting these injustices.［可讓英國成為為所有人服務(wù)這一使命不僅意味著應(yīng)對(duì)這些不公。］

If you're from an ordinary working-class family, life is much harder than many people in Westminster realize.You have the job, but you don't always have the job security.［如果你來自普通工人階級(jí)家庭，生活比政府里許多人知道的更艱難。你有工作，可往往并不穩(wěn)定。］ You have your own home, but you worry about paying the mortgage.You can just about manage, but you worry about the cost of living and getting your kids into a good school.［你有房子，可擔(dān)心付不起月供。你還能湊合活，卻擔(dān)心生活費(fèi)增加，沒法把孩子送進(jìn)好學(xué)校。］

If you're one of those families.If you're just managing.I want to address you directly.I know you're working around the clock, I know you're doing your best, and I know that sometimes, life can be a struggle.The government I lead will be driven not by the interests of a privileged few, but by yours.［如果你來自這些家庭，如果你也湊合活著，我想要直接和你說：我知道你起早貪黑，我知道你竭盡全力，我知道生活有時(shí)是一種掙扎。我領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的政府不會(huì)被一小撮特權(quán)群體的利益驅(qū)使，而會(huì)因你的利益而奔走。］

We will do everything we can to give you more control over your lives.When we take the big calls, we'll think not of the powerful but you.When we pass new laws, we'll listen not to the mighty, but you.When it comes to taxes we'll prioritize not the wealthy, but you.When it comes to opportunity, we won't entrench the advantages of the fortunate few.[我們將盡一切所能讓你更好掌控自己的生活。我們做重大決定時(shí)，我們想的不是那些有權(quán)之人，而是你們。我們通過新法時(shí)，我們不聽那些有勢之人，而是你們。當(dāng)收稅時(shí)，我們不會(huì)優(yōu)先考慮那些有錢之人，而是你們。當(dāng)提供機(jī)會(huì)時(shí)，我們不會(huì)只給予那些少數(shù)幸運(yùn)之人。]

We will do everything we can to help anybody, whatever your background, to go as far as your talents will take you.［我們將盡一切所能幫助所有人，不論你背景如何，都讓你能發(fā)揮所長。］

We are living through an important moment in our country's history.Following the referendum we face a time of great national change.And I know because we're Great Britain, we will rise to the challenge.［我們經(jīng)歷著國家歷史上一個(gè)重要時(shí)刻。公投后我們面臨著國家重大變革的時(shí)代。我知道因?yàn)槲覀兪谴蟛涣蓄?，我們將迎接挑?zhàn)。］

As we leave the European Union, we will forge a bold, new positive role for ourselves in the world.And we will make Britain a country that works not for a privileged few, but for every one of us.［我們離開了歐盟，我們會(huì)在世界上打造一個(gè)勇敢、積極的新角色。我們要讓英國成為不為少數(shù)特權(quán)階級(jí)服務(wù)的國家，一個(gè)為每個(gè)人服務(wù)的國家。］ That will be the mission of the government I lead, and together, we will build a better Britain.［這是我領(lǐng)導(dǎo)政府的使命，我們一起努力，就會(huì)建成一個(gè)更美好的英國。］

Of all the characters that I'' ve “ met” through books and movies，two stand out as people that I most want to emulate.They are Attacus Finch from To Kill A Mockingbird and Dr.Archibald “ Moonlight” Graham from Field of Dreams.They appeal to me because they embody what I strive to be.They are influential people in small towns who have a direct positive effect on those around them.I，too，plan to live in a small town after graduating from college，and that positive effect is something I must give in order to be satisfied with my life.Both Mr.Finch and Dr.Graham are strong supporting characters in wonderful stories.They symbolize good，honesty，and wisdom.When the story of my town is written I want to symbolize those things.The base has been formed for me to live a productive，helpful life.As an

Eagle Scout I represent those things that Mr.Finch and Dr.Graham represent.In the child/adolescent world I am Mr.Finch and Dr.Graham，but soon I'' ll be entering the adult world，a world in which I'' m not yet prepared to lead.I'' m quite sure that as teenagers Attacus Finch and Moonlight Graham often wondered what they could do to help others.They probably emulated someone who they had seen live a successful life.They saw someone like my grandfather，40-year president of our hometown bank，enjoy a lifetime of leading，sharing，and giving.I have seen him spend his Christmas Eves taking gifts of food and joy to indigent families.Often when his bank could not justify a loan to someone in need，my grandfather made the loan from his own pocket.He is a real-life Moonlight Graham，a man who has shown me that characters like Dr.Graham and Mr.Finch do much much more than elicit tears and smiles from readers and movie watchers.Through him and others in my family I feel I have acquired the values and the burning desire to benefit others that will form the foundation for a great life.I also feel that that foundation is not enough.I do not yet have the sophistication，knowledge，and wisdom necessary to succeed as I want to in the adult world.I feel that Harvard，above all others，can guide me

toward the life of greatness that will make me the Attacus Finch of my town.** ADMISSIONS COMMITTEE COMMENTS **

This essay is a great example of how to answer this question well.This applicant chose characters who demonstrated specific traits that reflect on his own personality.We believe that he is sincere about his choices because his reasons are personal(being from a small town，and so forth).He managed to tell us a good deal about himself，his values，and his goals while maintaining a strong focus throughout.資料來源：教育優(yōu)選 http://004km.cn/
