the Oath of Office as the 44th president of the United States as he is sworn in by US Chief Justice John Roberts with his wife Michelle by his side during the inauguration ceremony in Washington, January 20, became the first AfricanAmerican president in US history.[Agencies]OBAMA: My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our thank president Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this Americans have now taken the presidential words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of , every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging these moments, America has carried

年前和你們坐在同樣地方的學(xué)生，克服了經(jīng)濟蕭條并贏得了世界大戰(zhàn)，還登上了月球； 在20年前和你們坐在同樣地方的學(xué)生，成立了google，twitter和facebook，改變了我們的交流方式。你不會在接觸一項新運動時就進校隊，你也不會在第 一次唱歌時一點不走音，因此你需要練習(xí)。一些最成功的人同時也是失敗次數(shù)最多的人。也許你想更好地照顧自己，這樣才能為學(xué)習(xí)做更充分的準備。賈斯敏、安多尼和香特爾與你們并沒有什么不同。例如德克薩斯州羅馬市的賈斯敏但歸根結(jié)底，你生活的環(huán)境，你的樣子，你從哪里來，你有多少錢，你的家庭怎么樣，這些 都不能成為你不做功課和不好好上學(xué)的借口。那時的生活很容易就會變得更糟。你們需要利用在自然課和數(shù)學(xué)課上學(xué)到的知識和解決問題的能力去攻克癌癥和艾滋病；需要在歷史課和社會學(xué)上學(xué)到的洞察力和決斷力去對抗貧窮、饑寒、犯罪和歧視，使國家更公平和自由；需要在所有課程里學(xué)到的創(chuàng)造力去開辦公司解決就業(yè)問題和發(fā)展經(jīng)濟。這就是我今天的講話核心，你們每個人對教育的責任。很多時候，在餐桌邊，我就睡著了。我知道對于你們中的許多人而言，今天是新學(xué)期的開始，尤其是初入園、初入校的新 生，更是你們在新環(huán)境中的第一天，難免會有些小小緊張。s the story of students who sat where you sit 250 years ago, and went on to wage a revolution and they founded this who sat where you sit 75 years ago who overcame a
