and even when you’re struggling, even when you’re discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you, don’t ever give up on yourself, because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.即使當(dāng)你苦苦掙扎、灰心喪氣、感到其他人對(duì)你不抱希望時(shí)，也不要對(duì)你自己?jiǎn)适判?，因?yàn)楫?dāng)你自暴自棄時(shí)，你也拋棄了自己的國(guó)家。

the story of america isn’t about people who quit when things got tough.it’s about people who kept going, who tried harder, who loved their country too much to do anything less than their best.書(shū)寫(xiě)美國(guó)歷史的不是在困難時(shí)刻退縮的人，而是堅(jiān)持不懈、加倍努力的人，他們對(duì)國(guó)家的愛(ài)促使他們?nèi)σ愿啊?/p>

it’s the story of students who sat where you sit 250 years ago, and went on to wage a revolution and they founded this nation.young people.students who sat where you sit 75 years ago who overcame a depression and won a world war;who fought for civil rights and put a man on the moon.students who sat where you sit 20 years ago who founded google and twitter and facebook and changed the way we communicate with each other.書(shū)寫(xiě)美國(guó)歷史的是250年前坐在你們的位置上的學(xué)生，他們后來(lái)進(jìn)行了獨(dú)立戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)并創(chuàng)建了這個(gè)國(guó)家。還有75年前坐在你們的位置上的年輕人和學(xué)生，他們走出了大蕭條并打贏了一場(chǎng)世界大戰(zhàn);他們?yōu)槊駲?quán)而奮斗并把宇航員送上了月球。至于20年前坐在你們的位置上的學(xué)生，他們創(chuàng)辦了谷歌(google)、嘰喳網(wǎng)(twitter)和臉譜網(wǎng)(facebook)，改變了我們交流溝通的方式。

so today, i want to ask all of you, what’s your contribution going to be? what problems are you going to solve? what discoveries will you make? what will a president who comes here in 20 or 50 or 100 years say about what all of you did for this country?

so i know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school.but i’m here today because i have something important to discuss with you.i’m here because i want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year.我知道你們有些人還在適應(yīng)開(kāi)學(xué)后的生活。但我今天來(lái)到這里是因?yàn)橛兄匾氖虑橐湍銈冋f(shuō)。我來(lái)這里是要和你們談?wù)勀銈兊慕逃龁?wèn)題，以及在這個(gè)新學(xué)年對(duì)你們所有人的期望。

now, i’ve given a lot of speeches about education.and i’ve talked about responsibility a lot.我做過(guò)很多次有關(guān)教育問(wèn)題的演講。我多次談到過(guò)責(zé)任問(wèn)題。

i’ve talked about teachers’ responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn.我談到過(guò)教師激勵(lì)學(xué)生并督促他們學(xué)習(xí)的責(zé)任。

i’ve talked about your parents’ responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done, and don’t spend every waking hour in front of the tv or with the xbox.我談到過(guò)家長(zhǎng)的責(zé)任，要確保你們走正路，完成家庭作業(yè)，不要整天坐在電視前或玩xbox游戲。

i’ve talked a lot about your government’s responsibility for setting high standards, and supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren’t working, where students aren’t getting the opportunities that they deserve.我多次談到過(guò)政府的責(zé)任，要制定高標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，支持教師和校長(zhǎng)的工作，徹底改善不能為學(xué)生提供應(yīng)有機(jī)會(huì)的、教育質(zhì)量差的學(xué)校。

but at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world--and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.that’s what i want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.然而，即使我們擁有最敬業(yè)的教師，最盡力的家長(zhǎng)和全世界最好的學(xué)?！绻銈兇蠹也宦男心銈兊呢?zé)任，不到校上課，不專(zhuān)心聽(tīng)講，不聽(tīng)家長(zhǎng)、祖父祖母和其他大人的話，不付出取得成功所必須的勤奮努力，那么這一切都毫無(wú)用處，都無(wú)關(guān)緊要。這就是我今天講話的重點(diǎn)：你們每個(gè)人對(duì)自己的教育應(yīng)盡的責(zé)任。

i want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.every single one of you has something that you’re good at.every single one of you has something to offer.and you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.that’s the opportunity an education can provide.我首先要講講你們對(duì)自己應(yīng)盡的責(zé)任。你們每個(gè)人都有自己的長(zhǎng)處。你們每個(gè)人都能做出自己的貢獻(xiàn)。你們對(duì)自己應(yīng)盡的責(zé)任是發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的能力所在。而教育能夠提供這樣的機(jī)會(huì)。

第三篇：奧巴馬2012獲勝演講稿(中英)

Thank you so much.Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward.It moves forward because of you.It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war and depression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope, the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an American family and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America the best is yet to come.I want to thank every American who participated in this election, whether you voted for the very first time or waited in line for a very long time.By the way, we have to fix that.Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone, whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference.I just spoke with Gov.Romney and I congratulated him and Paul Ryan on a hard-fought campaign.We may have battled fiercely, but it’s only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future.From George to Lenore to their son Mitt, the Romney family has chosen to give back to America through public service and that is the legacy that we honor and applaud tonight.In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Gov.Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, America’s happy warrior, the best vice president anybody could ever hope for, Joe Biden.And I wouldn’t be the man I am today without the woman who agreed to marry me 20 years ago.Let me say this publicly: Michelle, I have never loved you more.I have never been prouder to watch the rest of America fall in love with you, too, as our nation’s first lady.Sasha and Malia,before our very eyes you’re growing up to become two strong, smart beautiful young women, just like your mom.And I’m so proud of you guys.But I will say that for now one dog’s probably enough.To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics.The best.The best ever.Some of you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.But all of you are family.No matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry the memory of the history we made together and you will have the lifelong appreciation of a grateful president.Thank you for believing all the way, through every hill, through every valley.You lifted me up the whole way and I will always be grateful for everything that you’ve done and all the incredible work that you put in.I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly.And that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics that tell us that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or the domain of special interests.But if you ever get the chance to talk to folks who turned out at our r

allies and crowded along a rope line in a high school gym, or saw folks working late in a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you’ll discover something else.You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s working his way through college and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity.You’ll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who’s going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the local auto plant added another shift.You’ll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a militaryspouse who’s working the phones late at night to make sure that no one who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or a roof over their head when they come home.That’s why we do this.That’s what politics can be.That’s why elections matter.It’s not small, it’s big.It’s important.Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated.We have our own opinions.Each of us has deeply held beliefs.And when we go through tough times, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs up controversy.That won’t change after tonight, and it shouldn’t.These arguments we have are a mark of our liberty.We can never forget that as we speak people in distant nations are risking their lives right now just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter, the chance to cast their ballots like we did today.But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for America’s future.We want our kids to grow up in a country where they have access to the best schools and the best teachers.A country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation, with all the good jobs and new businesses that follow.We want our children to live in an America that isn’t burdened by debt, that isn’t weakened by inequality, that isn’t threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.We want to pass on a country that’s safe and respected and admired around the world, a nation that is defended by the strongest military on earth and the best troops this – this world has ever known.But also a country that moves with confidence beyond this time of war, to shape a peace that is built on the promise of freedom and dignity for every human being.We believe in a generous America, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant America, open to the dreams of an immigrant’s daughter who studies in our schools and pledges to our flag.To the young boy on the south side of Chicago who sees a life beyond the nearest street corner.To the furniture worker’s child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a president – that’s the future we hope for.That’s the vision we share.That’s where we need to go – forward.That’s where we need to go.Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to get there.As it has for more than two centuries, progress will come in fits and starts.It’s not always a straight line.It’s not always a smooth path.By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dreams won’t end all the gridlock or solve all our problems or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus a

nd making the difficult compromises needed to move this country forward.But that common bond is where we must begin.Our economy is recovering.A decade of war is ending.A long campaign is now over.And whether I earned your vote or not, I have listened to you, I have learned from you, and you’ve made me a better president.And with your stories and your struggles, I return to the White House more determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do and the future that lies ahead.Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual.You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours.And in the coming weeks and months, I am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together.Reducing our deficit.Reforming our tax code.Fixing our immigration system.Freeing ourselves from foreign oil.We’ve got more work to do.But that doesn’t mean your work is done.The role of citizen in our democracy does not end with your vote.America’s never been about what can be done for us.It’s about what can be done by us together through the hard and frustrating, but necessary work of self-government.That’s the principle we were founded on.This country has more wealth than any nation, but that’s not what makes us rich.We have the most powerful military in history, but that’s not what makes us strong.Our university, our culture are all the envy of the world, but that’s not what keeps the world coming to our shores.What makes America exceptional are the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation on earth.The belief that our destiny is shared;that this country only works when we accept certain obligations to one another and to future generations.The freedom which so many Americans have fought for and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights.And among those are love and charity and duty and patriotism.That’s what makes America great.I am hopeful tonight because I’ve seen the spirit at work in America.I’ve seen it in the family business whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors, and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job.I’ve seen it in the soldiers who reenlist after losing a limb and in those SEALs who charged up the stairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching their back.I’ve seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New York, where leaders from every party and level of government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage of a terrible storm.And I saw just the other day, in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his 8-year-old daughter, whose long battle with leukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been for health care reform passing just a few months before the insurance company was about to stop paying for her care.I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father, but meet this incredible daughter of his.And when he spoke to the crowd listening to that father’s story, every parent in that room had tears in their eyes, because we knew that little girl could be our own.And I know that every American

wants her future to be just as bright.That’s who we are.That’s the country I’m so proud to lead as your president.And tonight, despite all the hardship we’ve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, I’ve never been more hopeful about our future.I have never been more hopeful about America.And I ask you to sustain that hope.I’m not talking about blind optimism, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path.I’m not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight.I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting.America, I believe we can build on the progress we’ve made and continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunity and new security for the middle class.I believe we can keep the promise of our founders, the idea that if you’re willing to work hard, it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from or what you look like or where you love.It doesn’t matter whether you’re black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay or straight, you can make it here in America if you’re willing to try.I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests.We’re not as cynical as the pundits believe.We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions, and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states.We are and forever will be the United States of America.And together with your help and God’s grace we will continue our journey forward and remind the world just why it is that we live in the greatest nation on Earth.Thank you, America.God bless you.God bless these United States.謝謝，非常感謝各位。今晚，是在一個(gè)曾經(jīng)的殖民地在贏得自己主權(quán)200多年之后，我們來(lái)到這里，不斷前行，這主要是因?yàn)槟銈儓?jiān)信這個(gè)國(guó)家能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)永恒的希望，實(shí)現(xiàn)移民的夢(mèng)想。每一個(gè)人都可以獨(dú)立的爭(zhēng)取自己的未來(lái)，我們將會(huì)作為一個(gè)國(guó)家共同起落。

今晚，在選舉的過(guò)程當(dāng)中，你們——美國(guó)的人民，讓我們記得我們的道路是非常艱辛的，我們的道路是漫長(zhǎng)的，我們重新站了起來(lái)，我們也從內(nèi)心知道，美國(guó)還沒(méi)有迎來(lái)最好的時(shí)代。

我想要感謝每一個(gè)參與選舉的美國(guó)人。無(wú)論你們是第一次投票，還是(排隊(duì))等了很長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間才投上一票——順便說(shuō)一下我會(huì)解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題。無(wú)論你是自己去投票站投的票，還是打電話投的票；無(wú)論你是投給奧巴馬的人，還是投給羅姆尼的人，你都是為我們國(guó)家?guī)?lái)轉(zhuǎn)變的力量。我剛剛同羅姆尼通過(guò)電話，我祝賀他們這次競(jìng)選所取得的成績(jī)。

我們的選戰(zhàn)也許非常激烈，但這正是因?yàn)槲覀兩類(lèi)?ài)著這個(gè)國(guó)家，并且我們十分在意它的未來(lái)。從羅姆尼整個(gè)家庭，孫子輩，孩子輩，整個(gè)家庭都獻(xiàn)給了美國(guó)，這種精神我們將永遠(yuǎn)銘記。幾周之后我將會(huì)同羅姆尼坐在一起，討論我們?cè)趺礃油苿?dòng)國(guó)家未來(lái)的發(fā)展。

我也感謝在過(guò)去四年辛苦奉獻(xiàn)的搭檔，也是美國(guó)最好的副總統(tǒng)，拜登先生。

我(之所以)成為現(xiàn)在的我，必須要感謝20年前與我結(jié)婚的女人。我想公開(kāi)地表達(dá)：米歇爾，我從來(lái)沒(méi)有像現(xiàn)在這樣愛(ài)你！我為你感到非常非常的驕傲，我相信我們的國(guó)家也非常愛(ài)你，你是我們非常熱愛(ài)的美國(guó)第一夫人。

薩莎和瑪莉亞，我摯愛(ài)的女兒，你們兩個(gè)是非常堅(jiān)強(qiáng)也非常聰明的女性，就像你們的母親一樣，我對(duì)你們感到非常的驕傲，但是目前我覺(jué)得給你們養(yǎng)一條寵物狗就夠了。

我還要感謝我的競(jìng)選團(tuán)隊(duì)和志愿者，他們是最好的，最棒的，而且是史上最棒的。有些人是第一次來(lái)聽(tīng)我的演說(shuō)，有些人四年前就聽(tīng)了我的獲勝演說(shuō)，但是每個(gè)人對(duì)我來(lái)講都是我的一分子，不管你做了什么，不管你去了哪里，你一定會(huì)記得我們今天晚上所創(chuàng)的歷史，你會(huì)一生都感激今晚這個(gè)時(shí)刻，而且你們會(huì)一直記得有一個(gè)心懷感激的總統(tǒng)，謝謝你們一路以來(lái)對(duì)我的信任，我要感謝你們所做的每一件事情。正是因?yàn)橛辛四銈?，我才?huì)一路堅(jiān)持下來(lái)。我對(duì)此將永遠(yuǎn)感謝，不管你做的什么，你們所做的一切我都心懷感激，并且永遠(yuǎn)鳴謝。

我知道這些政治競(jìng)選，可能有時(shí)候看起來(lái)非常愚蠢，而且我們也聽(tīng)到很多人跟我們講政治有的時(shí)候十分愚蠢，可能他只是利益的追求和沖突，但是如果你們真的有機(jī)會(huì)去和競(jìng)選活動(dòng)上和人們談?wù)撘恍﹩?wèn)題，或者你看到一些競(jìng)選團(tuán)隊(duì)，非常辛勤工作的志愿者們，你們的印象會(huì)有所改觀，因?yàn)槟隳軌蚩吹剿麄冇卸啻蟮臎Q心。他們也從大學(xué)畢業(yè)，并希望每一個(gè)孩子得到像他們一樣的機(jī)會(huì)。大家會(huì)聽(tīng)到志愿者驕傲的聲音，當(dāng)他們看到當(dāng)?shù)氐钠?chē)生產(chǎn)商增加了就業(yè)的機(jī)會(huì)，他們會(huì)感到非常的驕傲。大家也會(huì)看到我們軍人深深的愛(ài)國(guó)情意，他們守護(hù)著美國(guó)的安全，我們將保證他們回國(guó)之后不會(huì)再為找工作而煩惱。這就是我們現(xiàn)在所做的一切，這就是我們政治的目的，這也是為什么選舉如此重要。

這并不是小事情，而是大事情，是至關(guān)重要的事情。我們這個(gè)擁有3億人口的國(guó)家，民主的情緒可能十分復(fù)雜，可能十分混亂，每個(gè)人可能都有自己的觀點(diǎn)，每個(gè)人都有自己深深的信仰，在我們經(jīng)歷艱難時(shí)刻，做出艱難抉擇時(shí)，我們很自然會(huì)有沖突，會(huì)有情感的表達(dá)，但是我認(rèn)為它不應(yīng)當(dāng)影響我們今晚的表現(xiàn)。這些爭(zhēng)論正是我們自由的基礎(chǔ)，我們永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)忘記我們說(shuō)話的時(shí)候，許多國(guó)家的人民仍然在冒著風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，希望能夠找到解決問(wèn)題的方法，希望能夠爭(zhēng)取投票的權(quán)利。

盡管我們有很多的分歧，大多數(shù)人都對(duì)美國(guó)有共同的希望，我們都希望我們的孩子能夠上最好的學(xué)校，有最好的老師；我們的國(guó)家成為技術(shù)以及創(chuàng)新方面的領(lǐng)袖，并且創(chuàng)造更多的就業(yè)崗位和更多的企業(yè)。我希望我們的孩子不是負(fù)債累累，不會(huì)受到恐怖力量的威脅。我們也希望我們的國(guó)家是安全的，在全球受到尊重和羨慕，并且擁有全世界最強(qiáng)大、最優(yōu)秀的軍隊(duì)。同時(shí)我們的國(guó)家也應(yīng)該是充滿信心的國(guó)家，結(jié)束戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，重塑人類(lèi)的和平。

與此同時(shí)我們也希望自己的國(guó)家，有信心，并且能夠不斷推動(dòng)每個(gè)人的自由、繁榮和發(fā)展，我們相信美國(guó)的慷慨和包容，美國(guó)的自由和開(kāi)放，我們將伸開(kāi)雙手迎接那些移民的子女來(lái)到美國(guó)。我們相信在芝加哥任何一個(gè)孩子都可以看到他的希望，在北卡州那些想要成為科學(xué)家和醫(yī)生的學(xué)生，想要成為工程師，甚至是總統(tǒng)的學(xué)生，這是我們共同要爭(zhēng)取的未來(lái)，這是我們共同分享的愿景，這也是我們前進(jìn)的方向。

我們有的時(shí)候會(huì)對(duì)于怎么樣向前進(jìn)有非常強(qiáng)烈的分歧，200年來(lái)，大家知道我們的進(jìn)步一直不是直線的，也不是一帆風(fēng)順，我們伴隨著很多分歧和不同。我們意識(shí)到我們有著共同的夢(mèng)想，將會(huì)使我們結(jié)束僵局，努力的促成問(wèn)題的解決。我們需要妥協(xié)，需要使我們國(guó)家的繼續(xù)向前進(jìn)，這樣一種團(tuán)結(jié)的力量是我們現(xiàn)在出發(fā)的基礎(chǔ)。我們的經(jīng)濟(jì)正處于復(fù)蘇期間，我們十年的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)也已經(jīng)結(jié)束，我們的競(jìng)選也已經(jīng)將告尾聲，無(wú)論我是否贏得了你們的選票，我都傾聽(tīng)了你們的聲音，我都從你們那里學(xué)到了很多東西，你們將會(huì)使我成為更好的總統(tǒng)。我將會(huì)記得你們的故事，你們的抗?fàn)?，我將?huì)更堅(jiān)定的入主白宮，并且更堅(jiān)定的完成未來(lái)的工作。

今晚，大家是為行動(dòng)而不是為政治而投票，希望我們能夠更關(guān)注你們的工作，而不是我的工作。在今后的幾周，我將會(huì)與兩黨領(lǐng)袖會(huì)面應(yīng)對(duì)我們的挑戰(zhàn)，我們只能夠共同應(yīng)對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)，減少我們的赤字，改善我們的移民體系，減少對(duì)外國(guó)石油的依賴(lài)，我們有很多工作要做。但是這不意味著你們的工作就結(jié)束了，在民主社會(huì)當(dāng)中公民的作用并不因?yàn)橥镀倍Y(jié)束，你們一定要問(wèn)問(wèn)自己，不是美國(guó)能為你們做什么，而是我能為美國(guó)做什么，我們要進(jìn)行自我治理，自我約束，這是我們的原則，也是我們建國(guó)的理念。

我們這個(gè)國(guó)家是世界上最富有的國(guó)家，但并不是我們每個(gè)人富有，雖然我們的軍隊(duì)十分強(qiáng)大，但我們個(gè)人并不強(qiáng)大，我們的大學(xué)、我們的文化，雖然是全球最優(yōu)秀的，但是卻并不是說(shuō)我們就是全球最優(yōu)秀的。因?yàn)槲覀兪且粋€(gè)多民族的國(guó)家，多樣性的國(guó)家，但是在這樣多樣性的國(guó)家當(dāng)中，我們有共同的愿景和共識(shí)。如果我們推卸責(zé)任，不為子孫后代負(fù)責(zé)，我們將不會(huì)是一個(gè)能夠前進(jìn)的國(guó)家。我們要承擔(dān)我們的責(zé)任，熱愛(ài)我們的國(guó)家，這也是使美國(guó)強(qiáng)大的原因。

我今天晚上充滿了希望，因?yàn)槲铱吹矫绹?guó)勞動(dòng)人民的精神，還看到了那些商業(yè)人士所做的工作，提供了很多工作機(jī)會(huì)，而且我還看到那些失業(yè)的人民得到了幫助，我還看到戰(zhàn)士們?nèi)匀皇匦l(wèi)著我們的國(guó)家，因?yàn)樗麄円仓牢覀冊(cè)谥С种麄儭Ｎ疫€看到新澤西紐約每個(gè)政黨的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人，都開(kāi)始拋開(kāi)他們的歧見(jiàn)，來(lái)探討怎么從桑迪風(fēng)暴中重建我們的家園。

我們還看到，幾天前，俄亥俄州一個(gè)父親說(shuō)他有一個(gè)八歲的女兒，女孩的白血病使他的家庭一貧如洗，他們之前并沒(méi)有得到醫(yī)療保障，后來(lái)他們受利于幾個(gè)月前剛剛通過(guò)的醫(yī)改方案，使他們能夠支付起醫(yī)療費(fèi)。我和這位父親，還有他的女兒都見(jiàn)面了，當(dāng)他說(shuō)的時(shí)候，在場(chǎng)所有的父母都落淚了，因?yàn)槲覀冎溃呐畠阂部赡苁俏覀兊呐畠?，我們都希望自己的孩子未?lái)充滿光芒，這是每個(gè)父母的希望，這是我身為總統(tǒng)引以為豪的。

今晚，盡管我們經(jīng)歷了這么多的困難，盡管我們經(jīng)歷了這么多的挫折，我對(duì)未來(lái)格外充滿信心，我對(duì)美國(guó)格外充滿希望，我希望大家延續(xù)這種希望，我這里講的并不是盲目的樂(lè)觀，指的是我們對(duì)未來(lái)的挑戰(zhàn)，我也沒(méi)有說(shuō)天真或者理想化的樂(lè)觀情緒，我真正的希望，不管我們遇到多少的挫折，多少的困難，只有我們有勇氣保持不斷努力、不斷斗爭(zhēng)，不斷勇往直前。

我相信我們我們能在取得成就的基礎(chǔ)上取得新的機(jī)會(huì)，為美國(guó)的中產(chǎn)階級(jí)提供新的希望，我相信我們能夠繼續(xù)延續(xù)我們建國(guó)者的承諾，不管你來(lái)自哪里，不管你的膚色是什么，不管你是黑人、白人、亞裔人，任何種族，不管你是同性戀，還是非同性戀，不管你是貧困的，還是富裕的，你都可以來(lái)到美國(guó)實(shí)現(xiàn)你的夢(mèng)想。

我相信，我們可以共同迎來(lái)這樣的未來(lái)，因?yàn)槲覀儗?duì)未來(lái)是充滿了希望，我們有雄心壯志，我們贏得的不僅僅是這一個(gè)選舉，而且是一個(gè)未來(lái)，是美國(guó)的未來(lái)。我們將會(huì)作為一個(gè)整體，是美利堅(jiān)合眾國(guó)，而不是分成藍(lán)色或者是紅色，上帝會(huì)引導(dǎo)我們走向這條道路。并且我們相信，我們會(huì)成為世界上最偉大的國(guó)家，謝謝你們，上帝保佑美國(guó)！

第四篇：奧巴馬競(jìng)選演講稿(中英)

美國(guó)首任黑人總統(tǒng)奧巴馬競(jìng)選演講稿（中英）

Obama: The Change We Need

This is a defining moment in our history.We face the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression--760,000 workers have lost their jobs this year.Businesses and families can't get credit.Home values are falling, and pensions are disappearing.Wages are lower than they've been in a decade, at a time when the costs of health care and college have never been higher.At a moment like this, we can't afford four more years of spending increases, poorly designed tax cuts, or the complete lack of regulatory oversight that even former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan now believes was a mistake.America needs a new direction.That's why I'm running for president of the United States.Tomorrow, you can give this country the change we need.My opponent, Senator McCain, has served his country honorably.He can even point to a few moments in the past where he has broken from his party.But over the past eight years, he's voted with President Bush 90% of the time.And when it comes to the economy, he still can't tell the American people one major thing he'd do differently from George Bush.It's not change to come up with a tax plan that doesn't give a penny of relief to more than 100 million middle-class Americans--a plan that even the National Review and other conservative organizations complain does far too little to benefit the middle class.It's not change to add more than $5 trillion to the deficits we've run up in recent years.It's not change to come up with a plan to address our housing crisis that puts another $300 billion of taxpayer money at risk--a plan that the editorial board of this newspaper said 'raises more questions than it answers.'If there's one thing we've learned from this economic crisis, it's that we are all in this together.From CEOs to shareholders, from

financiers to factory workers, we all have a stake in each other's success because the more Americans prosper, the more America prospers.That's why we've had titans of industry who've made it their mission to pay well enough that their employees could afford the products they made--businessmen like Warren Buffett, whose support I'm proud to have.That's why our economy hasn't just been the world's greatest wealth creator--it's been the world's greatest job generator.It's been the tide that has lifted the boats of the largest middle class in history.To rebuild that middle class, I'll give a tax break to 95% of workers and their families.If you work, pay taxes, and make less than $200,000, you'll get a tax cut.If you make more than $250,000, you'll still pay taxes at a lower rate than in the 1990s--and capital gains and dividend taxes one-third lower than they were under President Reagan.We'll create two million new jobs by rebuilding our crumbling

infrastructure and laying broadband lines that reach every corner of the country.I'll invest $15 billion a year over the next decade in renewable energy, creating five million new, green jobs that pay well, can't be outsourced, and can help end our dependence on Middle East oil.When it comes to health care, we don't have to choose between a government-run system and the unaffordable one we have now.My opponent's plan would make you pay taxes on your health-care benefits for the first time in history.My plan will make health care affordable and accessible for every American.If you already have health insurance, the only change you'll see under my plan is lower premiums.If you don't, you'll be able to get the same kind of plan that members of Congress get for themselves.To give every child a world-class education so they can compete in this global economy for the jobs of the 21st century, I'll invest in early childhood education and recruit an army of new teachers.But I'll also demand higher standards and more accountability.And we'll make a deal with every young American: If you commit to serving your community or your country, we will make sure you can afford your tuition.And when it comes to keeping this country safe, I'll end the Iraq war responsibly so we stop spending $10 billion a month in Iraq while it sits on a huge surplus.For the sake of our economy, our military and the long-term stability of Iraq, it's time for the Iraqis to step up.I'll finally finish the fight against bin Laden and the al Qaeda terrorists who attacked us on 9/11, build new partnerships to defeat the threats of the 21st century, and restore our moral standing so that America remains the last, best hope of Earth.None of this will be easy.It won't happen overnight.But I believe we can do this because I believe in America.This is the country that allowed our parents and grandparents to believe that even if they couldn't go to college, they could save a little bit each week so their child could;that even if they couldn't have their own business, they could work hard enough so their child could open one of their own.And at every moment in our history, we've risen to meet our challenges because we've never

forgotten the fundamental truth that in America, our destiny is not written for us, but by us.So tomorrow, I ask you to write our nation's next great chapter.I ask you to believe--not just in my ability to bring about change, but in yours.Tomorrow, you can choose policies that invest in our middle class, create new jobs, and grow this economy so that everyone has a chance to succeed.You can choose hope over fear, unity over division, the promise of change over the power of the status quo.If you give me your vote, we won't just win this election--together, we will change this country and change the world.現(xiàn)在是美國(guó)歷史的關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻。我們面臨著大蕭條以來(lái)最為嚴(yán)重的一場(chǎng)經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)：今年以來(lái)已經(jīng)有76萬(wàn)人失業(yè)；企業(yè)和家庭無(wú)法獲得信貸；房?jī)r(jià)不斷下滑，養(yǎng)老金日益縮水；工資降到了十年來(lái)的最低水平，同時(shí)醫(yī)療和教育成本卻漲到了有史以來(lái)的最高點(diǎn)。

在眼下這樣的危急時(shí)刻，我們承受不起又一個(gè)四年的支出增長(zhǎng)、千瘡百孔的減稅措施、或是監(jiān)管全無(wú)──即使是美國(guó)聯(lián)邦儲(chǔ)備委員會(huì)（Fed）前主席格林斯潘（Alan Greenspan）現(xiàn)在也承認(rèn)那是個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。美國(guó)需要一個(gè)新的方向。這也正是我競(jìng)選美國(guó)總統(tǒng)的原因所在。

明天，也就是周二，你們將有能力賦予這個(gè)國(guó)家我們所需要的變革。Corbis我的競(jìng)選對(duì)手麥凱恩參議員為美國(guó)作出的貢獻(xiàn)令人尊敬。他甚至可以指出他過(guò)去曾有幾次與自己的黨派分道揚(yáng)鑣。然而，在過(guò)去八年中，他十之八九都贊同布什總統(tǒng)的主張。而在經(jīng)濟(jì)問(wèn)題上，他仍然無(wú)法向美國(guó)民眾說(shuō)明，他與布什的做法會(huì)有什么太大區(qū)別。

如果提出的稅收計(jì)劃沒(méi)有讓1億多美國(guó)中產(chǎn)階級(jí)獲得一分錢(qián)的稅項(xiàng)減免，這不是變革──即使是《國(guó)家評(píng)論》（National Review）雜志和其他保守派組織也抱怨說(shuō)，這個(gè)計(jì)劃對(duì)造福中產(chǎn)階級(jí)貢獻(xiàn)寥寥。在近年來(lái)不斷累積的財(cái)政赤字上再添5萬(wàn)億美元，這不是變革。如果解決房市危機(jī)的計(jì)劃又將另外3,000億美元納稅人的錢(qián)置于風(fēng)險(xiǎn)之中，這不是變革──《華爾街日?qǐng)?bào)》編輯委員會(huì)稱(chēng)這一計(jì)劃“產(chǎn)生的問(wèn)題比解決的問(wèn)題多”。

如果說(shuō)我們從此次經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)中學(xué)到了什么的話，那就是我們要患難與共。從首席執(zhí)行長(zhǎng)到公司股東，從金融家到工廠工人，我們每個(gè)人都休戚相關(guān)，因?yàn)槊绹?guó)的民眾越富足，美國(guó)才會(huì)越繁榮。

這就是為什么我們有些企業(yè)巨頭把提高員工薪酬作為自己的一項(xiàng)使命，讓員工能買(mǎi)得起自己生產(chǎn)的產(chǎn)品，比如巴菲特（Warren Buffett）這樣的商界人士。我對(duì)能有他的支持感到自豪。這就是為什么美國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)不僅是世界上最偉大的財(cái)富創(chuàng)造者，也是世界上最偉大的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)制造者。它一直托舉著有史以來(lái)規(guī)模最大的中產(chǎn)階級(jí)之舟。

為了重塑美國(guó)中產(chǎn)階級(jí)，我將給予95%的工人及其家庭稅收減免待遇。如果你工作，就交稅；如果年收入不足20萬(wàn)美元，你會(huì)獲得減稅；即使你的年收入超過(guò)了25萬(wàn)美元，你所負(fù)擔(dān)的稅率也比上世紀(jì)九十年代要低──資本利得稅和股息稅要比里根總統(tǒng)時(shí)期低三分之一。

通過(guò)重建日益破敗的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、在美國(guó)的各個(gè)角落接通寬帶，我們將創(chuàng)造200萬(wàn)個(gè)就業(yè)崗位。未來(lái)的十年中，我將每年在可再生能源領(lǐng)域投資150億美元，進(jìn)而新增500萬(wàn)個(gè)崗位；這些工作環(huán)保、薪酬豐厚、不能外包，而且能幫助我們擺脫對(duì)中東石油的依賴(lài)。

在醫(yī)療問(wèn)題上，我們不必在政府運(yùn)營(yíng)的體系和目前這種我們難以負(fù)擔(dān)的體系之間進(jìn)行選擇。我的競(jìng)選對(duì)手提出的方案會(huì)令美國(guó)人有史以來(lái)首次為自己獲得的醫(yī)療福利納稅。我的計(jì)劃則會(huì)讓醫(yī)療保健成為每個(gè)美國(guó)人都負(fù)擔(dān)得起、享受得到的服務(wù)。根據(jù)我的計(jì)劃，如果你已經(jīng)有了醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)，你將看到的唯一一個(gè)變化是保費(fèi)降低；如果你還沒(méi)有醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)，你將能與國(guó)會(huì)議員們享受到同樣的醫(yī)療福利。為了讓每個(gè)孩子享受到世界級(jí)的教育，讓他們能在全球經(jīng)濟(jì)中競(jìng)爭(zhēng)21世紀(jì)的工作崗位，我將投資早期教育，并且增加師資力量。不過(guò)，我同時(shí)也會(huì)要求更高的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和更多的責(zé)任。我們向每個(gè)美國(guó)年輕人作出承諾：如果你致力于服務(wù)你的社區(qū)或是你的國(guó)家，我們將確保你能負(fù)擔(dān)得起自己的學(xué)費(fèi)。

在國(guó)防安全問(wèn)題上，我將負(fù)責(zé)任地結(jié)束伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，這樣我們就不必在這個(gè)國(guó)家享有巨額財(cái)政盈余的情況下每月卻要在那里花費(fèi)100億美元。為了美國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)、美國(guó)的軍隊(duì)和伊拉克的長(zhǎng)期穩(wěn)定，現(xiàn)在是伊拉克人站出來(lái)的時(shí)候了。我將最終完成對(duì)本·拉登（Bin Laden）和基地組織恐怖分子的打擊，正是這些人制造了9/11恐怖襲擊，同時(shí)我還會(huì)建立新的合作關(guān)系、擊退21世紀(jì)出現(xiàn)的威脅，恢復(fù)我們的道德威望，讓美國(guó)仍然是地球上最后也是最好的希望。

這些事情沒(méi)有一件是輕而易舉能辦到的，也不是一朝一夕能完成的。但是，我堅(jiān)信我們能成功，因?yàn)槲覍?duì)美國(guó)深信不疑。是美國(guó)使我們的父輩相信，即使他們自己無(wú)法上大學(xué)，也可以每周積攢下一些錢(qián)來(lái)，讓他們的孩子接受好的教育；即使他們不能擁有自己的企業(yè)，也可以通過(guò)努力工作讓自己的孩子創(chuàng)辦企業(yè)。在美國(guó)歷史的每個(gè)時(shí)刻，我們都勇敢地站起來(lái)面對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)，因?yàn)槲覀儚膩?lái)沒(méi)有忘記過(guò)這樣一個(gè)基本真理：在美國(guó)，我們的命運(yùn)并非天定，而是掌握在我們自己的手中。所以，明天，我懇請(qǐng)你們書(shū)寫(xiě)美國(guó)下一個(gè)偉大的篇章。我懇請(qǐng)你們不只相信我?guī)?lái)變革的能力，還有你們自己的能力。明天，你們可以選擇這樣一種政策──向美國(guó)中產(chǎn)階級(jí)進(jìn)行投入、創(chuàng)造新的就業(yè)崗位、實(shí)現(xiàn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)讓人人都有成功的機(jī)會(huì)。你們可以選擇希望而非恐懼、選擇團(tuán)結(jié)而非分裂、選擇變革的希望而非墨守成規(guī)。如果你們投我的票，我們將不僅贏得此次競(jìng)選，還將一起改變這個(gè)國(guó)家、改變這個(gè)世界。

第五篇：奧巴馬開(kāi)學(xué)演講稿

奧巴馬開(kāi)學(xué)演講稿

Wakefield High School Arlington, Virginia

THE PRESIDENT: Hello, everybody!Thank you.Thank you.Thank you, everybody.All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat.How is everybody doing today?(Applause.)How about Tim Spicer?(Applause.)I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia.And we've got students tuning in from all across America, from kindergarten through 12th grade.And I am just so glad that all could join us today.And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host.Give yourselves a big round of applause.(Applause.)

I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school.And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it's your first day in a new school, so it's understandable if you're a little nervous.I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now--(applause)--with just one more year to go.And no matter what grade you're in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could've stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling.When I was young, my family lived overseas.I lived in Indonesia for a few years.And my mother, she didn't have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education.So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.Now, as you might imagine, I wasn't too happy about getting up that early.And a lot of times, I'd fall asleep right there at the kitchen table.But whenever I'd complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she'd say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.”(Laughter.)

So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school.But I'm here today because I have something important to discuss with you.I'm here because I want to talk with you about your education and what's expected of all of you in this new school year.Now, I've given a lot of speeches about education.And I've talked about responsibility a lot.I've talked about teachers' responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn.I've talked about your parents' responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done, and don't spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with the Xbox.I've talked a lot about your government's responsibility for setting high standards, and supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren't working, where students aren't getting the opportunities that they deserve.But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world--and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.That's what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.Every single one of you has something that you're good at.Every single one of you has something to offer.And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.That's the opportunity an education can provide.Maybe you could be a great writer--maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper--but you might not know it until you write that English paper--that English class paper that's assigned to you.Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventor--maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccine--but you might not know it until you do your project for your science class.Maybe you could be a mayor or a senator or a Supreme Court justice--but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.And no matter what you want to do with your life, I guarantee that you'll need an education to do it.You want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? You want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? You're going to need a good education for every single one of those careers.You cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job.You've got to train for it and work for it and learn for it.And this isn't just important for your own life and your own future.What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country.The future of America depends on you.What you're learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.You'll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment.You'll need the insights and critical-thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.You'll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.We need every single one of you to develop your talents and your skills and your intellect so you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems.If you don't do that--if you quit on school--you're not just quitting on yourself, you're quitting on your country.Now, I know it's not always easy to do well in school.I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now that can make it hard to focus on your schoolwork.I get it.I know what it's like.My father left my family when I was two years old, and I was raised by a single mom who had to work and who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn't always able to give us the things that other kids had.There were times when I missed having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn't fit in.So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been on school, and I did some things I'm not proud of, and I got in more trouble than I should have.And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.But I was--I was lucky.I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.My wife, our First Lady Michelle Obama, she has a similar story.Neither of her parents had gone to college, and they didn't have a lot of money.But they worked hard, and she worked hard, so that she could go to the best schools in this country.Some of you might not have those advantages.Maybe you don't have adults in your life who give you the support that you need.Maybe someone in your family has lost their job and there's not enough money to go around.Maybe you live in a neighborhood where you don't feel safe, or have friends who are pressuring you to do things you know aren't right.But at the end of the day, the circumstances of your life--what you look like, where you come from, how much money you have, what you've got going on at home--none of that is an excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude in school.That's no excuse for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping out of school.There is no excuse for not trying.Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where you'll end up.No one's written your destiny for you, because here in America, you write your own destiny.You make your own future.That's what young people like you are doing every day, all across America.Young people like Jazmin Perez, from Roma, Texas.Jazmin didn't speak English when she first started school.Neither of her parents had gone to college.But she worked hard, earned good grades, and got a scholarship to Brown University--is now in graduate school, studying public health, on her way to becoming Dr.Jazmin Perez.I'm thinking about Andoni Schultz, from Los Altos, California, who's fought brain cancer since he was three.He's had to endure all sorts of treatments and surgeries, one of which affected his memory, so it took him much longer--hundreds of extra hours--to do his schoolwork.But he never fell behind.He's headed to college this fall.And then there's Shantell Steve, from my hometown of Chicago, Illinois.Even when bouncing from foster home to foster home in the toughest neighborhoods in the city, she managed to get a job at a local health care center, start a program to keep young people out of gangs, and she's on track to graduate high school with honors and go on to college.And Jazmin, Andoni, and Shantell aren't any different from any of you.They face challenges in their lives just like you do.In some cases they've got it a lot worse off than many of you.But they refused to give up.They chose to take responsibility for their lives, for their education, and set goals for themselves.And I expect all of you to do the same.That's why today I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education--and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time each day reading a book.Maybe you'll decide to get involved in an extracurricular activity, or volunteer in your community.Maybe you'll decide to stand up for kids who are being teased or bullied because of who they are or how they look, because you believe, like I do, that all young people deserve a safe environment to study and learn.Maybe you'll decide to take better care of yourself so you can be more ready to learn.And along those lines, by the way, I hope all of you are washing your hands a lot, and that you stay home from school when you don't feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter.But whatever you resolve to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work--that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star.Chances are you're not going to be any of those things.The truth is, being successful is hard.You won't love every subject that you study.You won't click with every teacher that you have.Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right at this minute.And you won't necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.That's okay.Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures.J.K.Rowling's--who wrote Harry Potter--her first Harry Potter book was rejected 12 times before it was finally published.Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team.He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career.But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life.And that's why I succeed.”

These people succeeded because they understood that you can't let your failures define you--you have to let your failures teach you.You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time.So if you get into trouble, that doesn't mean you're a troublemaker, it means you need to try harder to act right.If you get a bad grade, that doesn't mean you're stupid, it just means you need to spend more time studying.No one's born being good at all things.You become good at things through hard work.You're not a varsity athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practice.The same principle applies to your schoolwork.You might have to do a math problem a few times before you get it right.You might have to read something a few times before you understand it.You definitely have to do a few drafts of a paper before it's good enough to hand in.Don't be afraid to ask questions.Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.I do that every day.Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength because it shows you have the courage to admit when you don't know something, and that then allows you to learn something new.So find an adult that you trust--a parent, a grandparent or teacher, a coach or a counselor--and ask them to help you stay on track to meet your goals.And even when you're struggling, even when you're discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you, don't ever give up on yourself, because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.The story of America isn't about people who quit when things got tough.It's about people who kept going, who tried harder, who loved their country too much to do anything less than their best.It's the story of students who sat where you sit 250 years ago, and went on to wage a revolution and they founded this nation.Young people.Students who sat where you sit 75 years ago who overcame a Depression and won a world war;who fought for civil rights and put a man on the moon.Students who sat where you sit 20 years ago who founded Google and Twitter and Facebook and changed the way we communicate with each other.So today, I want to ask all of you, what's your contribution going to be? What problems are you going to solve? What discoveries will you make? What will a President who comes here in 20 or 50 or 100 years say about what all of you did for this country?

Now, your families, your teachers, and I are doing everything we can to make sure you have the education you need to answer these questions.I'm working hard to fix up your classrooms and get you the books and the equipment and the computers you need to learn.But you've got to do your part, too.So I expect all of you to get serious this year.I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do.I expect great things from each of you.So don't let us down.Don't let your family down or your country down.Most of all, don't let yourself down.Make us all proud.Thank you very much, everybody.God bless you.God bless America.Thank you.(Applause.)

奧巴馬上海演講稿(完整版)PRESIDENT OBAMA: Good afternoon.It is a great honor for me to be here in Shanghai, and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you.I'd like to thank Fudan University's President Yang for his hospitality and his gracious welcome.I'd also like to thank our outstanding Ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who exemplifies the deep ties and respect between our nations.I don't know what he said, but I hope it was good.(Laughter.)What I'd like to do is to make some opening comments, and then what I'm really looking forward to doing is taking questions, not only from students who are in the audience, but also we've received questions online, which will be asked by some of the students who are here in the audience, as well as by Ambassador Huntsman.And I am very sorry that my Chinese is not as good as your English, but I am looking forward to this chance to have a dialogue.This is my first time traveling to China, and I'm excited to see this majestic country.Here, in Shanghai, we see the growth that has caught the attention of the world--the soaring skyscrapers, the bustling streets and entrepreneurial activity.And just as I'm impressed by these signs of China's journey to the 21st century, I'm eager to see those ancient places that speak to us from China's distant past.Tomorrow and the next day I hope to have a chance when I'm in Beijing to see the majesty of the Forbidden City and the wonder of the Great Wall.Truly, this is a nation that encompasses both a rich history and a belief in the promise of the future.The same can be said of the relationship between our two countries.Shanghai, of course, is a city that has great meaning in the history of the relationship between the United States and China.It was here, 37 years ago, that the Shanghai Communique opened the door to a new chapter of engagement between our governments and among our people.However, America's ties to this city--and to this country--stretch back further, to the earliest days of America's independence.In 1784, our founding father, George Washington, commissioned the Empress of China, a ship that set sail for these shores so that it could pursue trade with the Qing Dynasty.Washington wanted to see the ship carry the flag around the globe, and to forge new ties with nations like China.This is a common American impulse--the desire to reach for new horizons, and to forge new partnerships that are mutually beneficial.Over the two centuries that have followed, the currents of history have steered the relationship between our countries in many directions.And even in the midst of tumultuous winds, our people had opportunities to forge deep and even dramatic ties.For instance, Americans will never forget the hospitality shown to our pilots who were shot down over your soil during World War II, and cared for by Chinese civilians who risked all that they had by doing so.And Chinese veterans of that war still warmly greet those American veterans who return to the sites where they fought to help liberate China from occupation.A different kind of connection was made nearly 40 years ago when the frost between our countries began to thaw through the simple game of table tennis.The very unlikely nature of this engagement contributed to its success--because for all our differences, both our common humanity and our shared curiosity were revealed.As one American player described his visit to China--“[The]people are just like us…The country is very similar to America, but still very different.” Of course this small opening was followed by the achievement of the Shanghai Communique, and the eventual establishment of formal relations between the United States and China in 1979.And in three decades, just look at how far we have come.In 1979, trade between the United States and China stood at roughly $5 billion--today it tops over $400 billion each year.The commerce affects our people's lives in so many ways.America imports from China many of the computer parts we use, the clothes we wear;and we export to China machinery that helps power your industry.This trade could create even more jobs on both sides of the Pacific, while allowing our people to enjoy a better quality of life.And as demand becomes more balanced, it can lead to even broader prosperity.In 1979, the political cooperation between the United States and China was rooted largely in our shared rivalry with the Soviet Union.Today, we have a positive, constructive and comprehensive relationship that opens the door to partnership on the key global issues of our time--economic recovery and the development of clean energy;stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and the scourge of climate change;the promotion of peace and security in Asia and around the globe.All of these issues will be on the agenda tomorrow when I meet with President Hu.And in 1979, the connections among our people were limited.Today, we see the curiosity of those ping-pong players manifested in the ties that are being forged across many sectors.The second highest number of foreign students in the United States come from China, and we've seen a 50 percent increase in the study of Chinese among our own students.There are nearly 200 “friendship cities” drawing our communities together.American and Chinese scientists cooperate on new research and discovery.And of course, Yao Ming is just one signal of our shared love of basketball--I'm only sorry that I won't be able to see a Shanghai Sharks game while I'm visiting.It is no coincidence that the relationship between our countries has accompanied a period of positive change.China has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty--an accomplishment unparalleled in human history--while playing a larger role in global events.And the United States has seen our economy grow along with the standard of living enjoyed by our people, while bringing the Cold War to a successful conclusion.There is a Chinese proverb: “Consider the past, and you shall know the future.” Surely, we have known setbacks and challenges over the last 30 years.Our relationship has not been without disagreement and difficulty.But the notion that we must be adversaries is not predestined--not when we consider the past.Indeed, because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and more secure.We have seen what is possible when we build upon our mutual interests, and engage on the basis of mutual respect.And yet the success of that engagement depends upon understanding--on sustaining an open dialogue, and learning about one another and from one another.For just as that American table tennis player pointed out--we share much in common as human beings, but our countries are different in certain ways.I believe that each country must chart its own course.China is an ancient nation, with a deeply rooted culture.The United States, by comparison, is a young nation, whose culture is determined by the many different immigrants who have come to our shores, and by the founding documents that guide our democracy.Those documents put forward a simple vision of human affairs, and they enshrine several core principles--that all men and women are created equal, and possess certain fundamental rights;that government should reflect the will of the people and respond to their wishes;that commerce should be open, information freely accessible;and that laws, and not simply men, should guarantee the administration of justice.Of course, the story of our nation is not without its difficult chapters.In many ways--over many years--we have struggled to advance the promise of these principles to all of our people, and to forge a more perfect union.We fought a very painful civil war, and freed a portion of our population from slavery.It took time for women to be extended the right to vote, workers to win the right to organize, and for immigrants from different corners of the globe to be fully embraced.Even after they were freed, African Americans persevered through conditions that were separate and not equal, before winning full and equal rights.None of this was easy.But we made progress because of our belief in those core principles, which have served as our compass through the darkest of storms.That is why Lincoln could stand up in the midst of civil war and declare it a struggle to see whether any nation, conceived in liberty, and “dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal” could long endure.That is why Dr.Martin Luther King could stand on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and ask that our nation live out the true meaning of its creed.That's why immigrants from China to Kenya could find a home on our shores;why opportunity is available to all who would work for it;and why someone like me, who less than 50 years ago would have had trouble voting in some parts of America, is now able to serve as its President.And that is why America will always speak out for these core principles around the world.We do not seek to impose any system of government on any other nation, but we also don't believe that the principles that we stand for are unique to our nation.These freedoms of expression_r_r_r_r and worship--of access to information and political participation--we believe are universal rights.They should be available to all people, including ethnic and religious minorities--whether they are in the United States, China, or any nation.Indeed, it is that respect for universal rights that guides America's openness to other countries;our respect for different cultures;our commitment to international law;and our faith in the future.These are all things that you should know about America.I also know that we have much to learn about China.Looking around at this magnificent city--and looking around this room--I do believe that our nations hold something important in common, and that is a belief in the future.Neither the United States nor China is content to rest on our achievements.For while China is an ancient nation, you are also clearly looking ahead with confidence, ambition, and a commitment to see that tomorrow's generation can do better than today's.In addition to your growing economy, we admire China's extraordinary commitment to science and research--a commitment borne out in everything from the infrastructure you build to the technology you use.China is now the world's largest Internet user--which is why we were so pleased to include the Internet as a part of today's event.This country now has the world's largest mobile phone network, and it is investing in the new forms of energy that can both sustain growth and combat climate change--and I'm looking forward to deepening the partnership between the United States and China in this critical area tomorrow.But above all, I see China's future in you--young people whose talent and dedication and dreams will do so much to help shape the 21st century.I've said many times that I believe that our world is now fundamentally interconnected.The jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek--all of these things are shared.And given that interconnection, power in the 21st century is no longer a zero-sum game;one country's success need not come at the expense of another.And that is why the United States insists we do not seek to contain China's rise.On the contrary, we welcome China as a strong and prosperous and successful member of the community of nations--a China that draws on the rights, strengths, and creativity of individual Chinese like you.To return to the proverb--consider the past.We know that more is to be gained when great powers cooperate than when they collide.That is a lesson that human beings have learned time and again, and that is the example of the history between our nations.And I believe strongly that cooperation must go beyond our government.It must be rooted in our people--in the studies we share, the business that we do, the knowledge that we gain, and even in the sports that we play.And these bridges must be built by young men and women just like you and your counterparts in America.That's why I'm pleased to announce that the United States will dramatically expand the number of our students who study in China to 100,000.And these exchanges mark a clear commitment to build ties among our people, as surely as you will help determine the destiny of the 21st century.And I'm absolutely confident that America has no better ambassadors to offer than our young people.For they, just like you, are filled with talent and energy and optimism about the history that is yet to be written.So let this be the next step in the steady pursuit of cooperation that will serve our nations, and the world.And if there's one thing that we can take from today's dialogue, I hope that it is a commitment to continue this dialogue going forward.So thank you very much.And I look forward now to taking some questions from all of you.Thank you very much.(Applause.)So--I just want to make sure this works.This is a tradition, by the way, that is very common in the United States at these town hall meetings.And what we're going to do is I will just--if you are interested in asking a question, you can raise your hands.I will call on you.And then I will alternate between a question from the audience and an Internet question from one of the students who prepared the questions, as well as I think Ambassador Huntsman may have a question that we were able to obtain from the Web site of our embassy.So let me begin, though, by seeing--and then what I'll do is I'll call on a boy and then a girl and then--so we'll go back and forth, so that you know it's fair.All right? So I'll start with this young lady right in the front.Why don't we wait for this microphone so everyone can hear you.And what's your name? Q My name is(inaudible)and I am a student from Fudan University.Shanghai and Chicago have been sister cities since 1985, and these two cities have conduct a wide range of economic, political, and cultural exchanges.So what measures will you take to deepen this close relationship between cities of the United States and China? And Shanghai will hold the World Exposition next year.Will you bring your family to visit the Expo? Thank you.PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, thank you very much for the question.I was just having lunch before I came here with the Mayor of Shanghai, and he told me that he has had an excellent relationship with the city of Chicago--my home town--that he's visited there twice.And I think it's wonderful to have these exchanges between cities.One of the things that I discussed with the Mayor is how both cities can learn from each other on strategies around clean energy, because one of the issues that ties China and America together is how, with an expanding population and a concern for climate change, that we're able to reduce our carbon footprint.And obviously in the United States and many developed countries, per capita, per individual, they are already using much more energy than each individual here in China.But as China grows and expands, it's going to be using more energy as well.So both countries have a great interest in finding new strategies.We talked about mass transit and the excellent rail lines that are being developed in Shanghai.I think we can learn in Chicago and the United States some of the fine work that's being done on high-speed rail.In the United States, I think we are learning how to develop buildings that use much less energy, that are much more energy-efficient.And I know that with Shanghai, as I traveled and I saw all the cranes and all the new buildings that are going up, it's very important for us to start incorporating these new technologies so that each building is energy-efficient when it comes to lighting, when it comes to heating.And so it's a terrific opportunity I think for us to learn from each other.I know this is going to be a major focus of the Shanghai World Expo, is the issue of clean energy, as I learned from the Mayor.And so I would love to attend.I'm not sure yet what my schedule is going to be, but I'm very pleased that we're going to have an excellent U.S.pavilion at the Expo, and I understand that we expect as many as 70 million visitors here.So it's going to be very crowded and it's going to be very exciting.Chicago has had two world expos in its history, and both of those expos ended up being tremendous boosts for the city.So I'm sure the same thing will happen here in Shanghai.Thank you.(Applause.)
