sed 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 you’ll decide to take better care of yourself so you can be more ready to 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 ,我今天呼吁你們每一個人為自己的教育設定目標,并盡自己的最大努力來實現(xiàn)這些目標。I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard workthat your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV are you’re not going to be any of those :你不用做任何艱苦的工作就能發(fā)財致富并取得成功,唱小調、打籃球或成為真人秀明星是走向成功的途徑。世界上最成功的人士中有一些是遭遇失敗最多的人。因此,如果你遇到麻煩,那并不表示你是麻煩的制造者,而意味著你需要更加努力去把它做對。你可能要把一道數(shù)學題做幾次才把它做對。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 、灰心喪氣、感到其他人對你不抱希望時,也不要對你自己喪失信心,因為當你自暴自棄時,你也拋棄了自己的國家。但你們也必須盡自己的努力。愿主保佑你們。我可以理解這份心情。我也很多次談到過政府有責任設定高標準嚴要求、協(xié)助老師和校長們的工作,改變在有些學校里學生得不到應有的學習機會的現(xiàn)狀。而且,我可以向你保證,不管你將來想要做什么,你都需要相應的教育。我知道你們中的許多人在生活中面臨著各種各樣的問題,很難把精力集中在專心讀書之上。但歸根結底,你的生活狀況——你的長相、出身、經濟條件、家庭氛圍——都不是疏忽學業(yè)和態(tài)度惡劣的借口,這些不是你去跟老師頂嘴、逃課、或是輟學的借口,這些不是你不好好讀書的借口。又比如在我的家鄉(xiāng),伊利諾斯州芝加哥市,身為孤兒的香特爾?史蒂夫(Shantell Steve)換過多次收養(yǎng)家庭,從小在治安很差的地區(qū)長大,但她努力爭取到了在當?shù)乇=≌竟ぷ鞯臋C會、發(fā)起了一個讓青少年遠離犯罪團伙的項目,很快,她也將以優(yōu)異的成績從中學畢業(yè),去大學深造。因為,成功是件難事。沒有哪一個人一生出來就擅長做什么事情的,只有努力才能培養(yǎng)出技能。所以,有不懂時,就向大人們求助吧——找個你信得過的對象,例如父母、長輩、老師、教練或輔導員——讓他們幫助你向目標前進。因此我要求你們在今年能夠認真起來,我要求你們盡心地去做自己著手的每一件事,我要求你們每一個人都有所成就。ve

I39。250年前,有一群和你們一樣的學生,他們之后奮起努力、用一場革命最終造就了這個國家;75年前,有一群和你們一樣的學生,他們之后戰(zhàn)勝了大蕭條、贏得了二戰(zhàn);就在20年前,和你們一樣的學生們,他們后來創(chuàng)立了Google、Twitter和Facebook,改變了我們人與人之間溝通的方式。不要害怕提問。因為在這個世界上,最最成功的人們往往也經歷過最多的失敗。因此,在今天,我號召你們每一個人都為自己的教育定下一個目標——并在之后,盡自己的一切努力去實現(xiàn)它。例如德克薩斯州羅馬市的賈斯敏?佩雷茲(Jazmin Perez)。但我很幸運。你們需要在數(shù)理科學課程上學習的知識和技能,去治療癌癥、艾滋那樣的疾病,和解決我們面臨的能源問題與環(huán)境問題;你們需要在歷史社科課程上培養(yǎng)出的觀察力與判斷力,來減輕和消除無家可歸與貧困、犯罪問題和各種歧視,讓這個國家變得更加公平和自由;你們需要在各類課程中逐漸累積和發(fā)展出來的創(chuàng)新意識和思維,去創(chuàng)業(yè)和建立新的公司與企業(yè),來制造就業(yè)機會和推動經濟的增長。首先,我想談談你們對于自己有什么責任。我要和你們談一談你們每個人的教育,以及在新的學年里,你們應當做些什么。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)講演的風格很口語化,講道理深入淺出,我的孩子上周也進入小學一年級,激勵孩子,跟他(她)討論一下,讓孩子理解一下他(她)身上所承擔的對自己,躊躇再三,畢竟講教育的主題跟股市大家談的主旨有些不合,但我覺得從投資角度而言,教育上面花費的時間、精力,金錢的投資,不管是投向自己,還是孩子,都是我們一生中所能做出的最好的,永遠都不會后悔的投資選擇之一.畢竟,一個更好的未來,一個更強大的國家,一個更美,更和諧的世界愿景都要依靠我們的孩子們去實現(xiàn).弗吉尼亞州,阿林頓市,2009年9月8日嗨,大家好!你們今天過得怎么樣?我現(xiàn)在和弗吉尼亞州阿林頓郡韋克菲爾德高中的學生們在一起,全國各地也有從幼兒園到高三的眾多學生們通過電視關注這里,我很高興你們能共同分享這一時刻。不要讓我們失望。還有75年前坐在你們的位置上的年輕人和學生,他們走出了大蕭條并打贏了一場世界大戰(zhàn);他們?yōu)槊駲喽鴬^斗并把宇航員送上了月球。不要在需要幫助時害怕請求別人幫助。第一次從事新的體育項目時,你不可能是一位主力隊員。但他曾說過:“在我的一生中,我失敗了一次又一次、一次又一次。你不會與你的每一位老師都很投契。也許你會決定更好地照料自己,以便有更充沛的精力來學習。在某些情況下,他們的處境比起你們許多人更差。然而,她非常勤奮,成績優(yōu)秀,獲得了布朗大學的獎學金,她如今正在讀研究生,攻讀公共衛(wèi)生專業(yè),不久將成為賈茲敏 佩雷斯博士。你們沒有理由不服從你們的老師、逃學、或輟學。我的妻子,我們的第一夫人米歇爾?奧巴馬,也有著類似的經歷。我有親身感受。You’ll need the knowledge and problemsolving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our ’ll need the insights and criticalthinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more ’ll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new panies that will create new jobs and boost our 、艾滋病及其他疾病,開發(fā)新的能源技術和保護我們的環(huán)境。And no matter what you want to do with your life, I guarantee that you’ll need an education to do 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 cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good ’ve got to train for it and work for it and learn for ,我敢肯定你必須上學讀書才能實現(xiàn)它。I want to start with the responsibility you have to single one of you has something that you’re good single one of you has
