奥巴马演讲稿范文4篇奥巴马演讲稿范文1:Yes We CanDear fellow Americans,Eight years ago, we came together as a nation to elect a president who promised hope and change. Today, we gather once again to celebrate the legacy of that president - Barack Obama.When he took office, our nation was in the midst of an economic crisis. Unemployment was at an all-time high, people were losing their homes, and hope seemed lost for many Americans. But Obama didn't give up - he rolled up his sleeves and got to work.He passed the Affordable Care Act, providing healthcare coverage to millions of Americans who had previously been left without it. He saved the auto industry, preventing the loss of thousands of jobs. And he fought tirelessly for equal rights, standing up for the LGBTQ community and signing the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act into law.But Obama's legacy isn't just about the policies he passed. It's about the way he inspired us to believe in ourselves and in each other. He reminded us that, yes, we can. Yes, we can come together as a nation to overcome our differences. Yes, we can work towards a brighter future for ourselves and for our children. Yes, we can achieve greatness.As we move forward as a nation, let us remember the legacy of Barack Obama. Let us continue to believe in ourselves and in thepower of hope and change. And let us always remember - Yes, we can.Thank you and God bless America.奥巴马演讲稿范文2:My Brothers and Sisters of AmericaMy fellow Americans,Today, as we celebrate our nation's independence, I want to take a moment to reflect on what it truly means to be an American. It's more than just living within our borders or having a certain set of rights - being American is about the values that we hold dear.Values like freedom, equality, and justice for all. Values like coming together as a nation, despite our differences. And values like never giving up, even in the face of adversity.As we look around the world today, we see that these values are under threat. We see hate and violence on the rise, fueled by those who seek to divide us. But we cannot give in to fear or despair. We must hold fast to our values and stand together as Americans.We must stand up for the rights of all people, regardless of their race, gender, or religion. We must fight for justice and equality, for every person who has ever been marginalized or oppressed. And we must work towards a brighter future for ourselves and for generations to come.So my brothers and sisters of America, let us not shy away fromthe challenges ahead. Let us embrace them with open hearts and minds. Let us remember the values that make us American, and let us never forget that together, we can achieve anything.Thank you, and God bless America.奥巴马演讲稿范文3:A More Perfect UnionMy fellow Americans,Over the past few months, we have seen deep divisions within our country. We have seen hate and intolerance rear its ugly head, and we have seen the wounds of our past reopen. But I believe that, as Americans, we have the strength and the courage to overcome these challenges.As we celebrate Independence Day, I want to remind us of the ideals that our country was founded upon. The idea that we are all created equal, and that we all have certain unalienable rights - life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The idea that, despite our differences, we are all Americans, and we should always strive towards a "more perfect union."This is not to say that we should ignore the problems that exist within our society. We must confront the challenges of racial inequality and social injustice head-on, and work towards a solution that is fair and just for all. We must listen to the voices of those who have been marginalized or oppressed, and work to create a society that uplifts and empowers every person.But we cannot do this alone. It takes all of us coming together, as Americans, to make real change happen. It takes us recognizing that no matter what our differences may be, we all share a common bond - our love for this country and our belief in the American dream.So let us work towards a "more perfect union." Let us continue fighting for justice and equality. And let us always remember that, as Americans, we are strongest when we stand together.Thank you, and God bless America.奥巴马演讲稿范文4:The Future of Our DemocracyMy fellow Americans,As we celebrate the 4th of July, I want to take a moment to reflect on the future of our democracy. Our country is facing unprecedented challenges - from the rising threat of international terrorism to the growing divide between our citizens. But I believe that, together, we can face these challenges head-on, and emerge even stronger.At the heart of our democracy is our belief in the power of the people. It is the idea that every citizen has a voice, and that those voices should be heard. But we must recognize that this idea is only effective if we are actively engaged in our civic duty.We cannot allow ourselves to become complacent, to believe that the problems we face will simply resolve themselves. We must bevigilant in protecting our democracy, in fighting for the rights of all people, and in working towards a more just and equitable society.So my message to you, my fellow Americans, is this: let us work towards a future that honors the values that make us great - freedom, equality, and justice for all. Let us be active and engaged citizens, using our voices and our actions to make real change happen. And let us never forget that, as citizens of the greatest democracy in the world, the future of our country is in our hands. Thank you, and God bless America.。

English Speech:Ladies and Gentlemen,It is a great honor to stand before you today at this esteemed university. I am here to talk about the future, and more specifically, the role of higher education in shaping that future. We are at a pivotal moment in history, where the rapid pace of technological advancement and globalization is reshaping the world as we know it.First and foremost, let me commend the students, faculty, and staff of this university for your commitment to excellence. Your pursuit of knowledge and your dedication to learning are the cornerstones of progress. But let us not be complacent. The challenges we face today require us to reevaluate and reinvent the way we approach education.In the past, higher education was primarily about preparing students for well-defined careers. Today, we live in an era of constant change, where the skills we acquire in college are just the beginning. We must prepare our students not just for jobs, but for lives of purpose and fulfillment.The first step in this journey is to ensure that higher education is accessible to all. We must remove the barriers that prevent studentsfrom pursuing their dreams. This means expanding financial aid, making college more affordable, and providing pathways to success for those who come from underserved communities.Secondly, we must focus on the quality of education. In an age of information overload, it is not enough to simply impart knowledge. We must teach students how to think critically, solve complex problems, and adapt to new challenges. This requires a reimagining of the curriculum, one that is dynamic and responsive to the needs of a changing world.We also need to foster a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship on our campuses. By encouraging students to think creatively and take risks, we can cultivate the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs whowill drive economic growth and social progress.Furthermore, we must recognize the importance of global citizenship. In a world that is more interconnected than ever before, our students must be prepared to engage with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. This requires a commitment to diversity and inclusion, and an understanding that our collective success depends on our ability to work together.As we look to the future, we must also address the growing divide between those who have access to higher education and those who do not. This divide is not just a matter of access to resources, but also of opportunity. We must work to close this gap, not just for the sake of social justice, but for the sake of our economy and our society.Innovation is the lifeblood of our economy, and higher education is the engine of innovation. By investing in research and development, we can create new industries, new jobs, and new opportunities. But innovation is not just about technology; it is about ideas, and it is about people. We must cultivate a culture of curiosity and creativity, one that inspires our students to dream big and to pursue their passions.As we embark on this journey, let us not forget the importance of mentorship and guidance. The role of the professor, the advisor, and the mentor is more critical than ever before. We must be there for our students, not just as teachers, but as guides and as friends.In conclusion, the future of higher education is bright, but it is also complex. We must be bold in our vision, and we must be agile in our approach. We must embrace change, and we must be willing to challenge the status quo. Together, we can create a future that is inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous.Thank you for your attention, and may this university continue to be a beacon of light in the world of education.Chinese Speech:尊敬的女士们、先生们,今天能够站在这所著名大学的讲台上,我感到非常荣幸。

Tonight more than200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its owndestiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward. It movesforward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed thespirit that has triumphed over war and depression, the spirit thathas lifted this country from the depths of despair to the sofhope. The belief that while each of us will pursue our ownindivual dreams, we are an American family and we rise or falltogether as one nation and as one people.今晚,是在一个曾经的殖民地在赢得自己主权200多年之后,我们来到这里,不断前行,这主要是因为你们坚信这个国家能够实现永恒的希望,实现移民的梦想。

每一个人都可以独立的争取自己的未来,我们将会作为一个国家共同起落。

Tonight in thiselection, you, the American people, remind us while our road hasbeen hard, while our journey has been long, we have pickedourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in ourhearts that the united states of America the best is yet tocome.今晚,在选举的过程当中,你们——美国的人民,让我们记得我们的道路是非常艰辛的,我们的道路是漫长的,我们重新站了起来,我们也从内心知道,美国还没有迎来最好的时代。

奥巴马演讲稿(英文版)

奥巴马演讲稿(英文版)Remarks of Senator Barack Obama: Iowa Caucus NightDes Moines, IA | January 03, 2008Thank you, Iowa.You know, they said this day would never come.They said our sights were set too high.They said this country was too divided; too disillusioned to ever come together around a common purpose.But on this January night - at this defining moment in history - you have done what the cynics said we couldn't do. You have done what the state of New Hampshire can do in five days. You have done what America can do in this New Year, 2008. In lines that stretched around schools and churches; in small towns and big cities; you came together as Democrats, Republicans and Independents to stand up and say that we are one nation; we are one people; and our time for change has come.You said the time has come to move beyond the bitterness and pettiness and anger that's consumed Washington; to end the political strategy that's been all about division and instead make it about addition - to build a coalition for change that stretches through Red States and Blue States. Because that's how we'll win in November, and that's how we'll finally meet the challenges that we face as a nation.We are choosing hope over fear. We're choosing unity over division, and sending a powerful message that change is coming to America.You said the time has come to tell the lobbyists who think their money and their influence speak louder than our voices that they don't own this government, we do; and we are here to takeit back.The time has come for a President who will be honest about the choices and the challenges we face; who will listen to you and learn from you even when we disagree; who won't just tell you what you want to hear, but what you need to know. And in New Hampshire, if you give me the same chance that Iowa did tonight, I will be that president for America.Thank you.I'll be a President who finally makes health care affordable and available to every single American the same way I expanded health care in Illinois - by--by bringing Democrats and Republicans together to get the job done.I'll be a President who ends the tax breaks for companies that ship our jobs overseas and put a middle-class tax cut into the pockets of the working Americans who deserve it.I'll be a President who harnesses the ingenuity of farmers and scientists and entrepreneurs to free this nation from the tyranny of oil once and for all.And I'll be a President who ends this war in Iraq and finally brings our troops home; who restores our moral standing; who understands that 9/11 is not a way to scare up votes, but a challenge that should unite America and the world against the common threats of the twenty-first century; common threats of terrorism and nuclear weapons; climate change and poverty; genocide and disease.Tonight, we are one step closer to that vision of America because of what you did here in Iowa. And so I'd especially like to thank the organizers and the precinct captains; the volunteers and the staff who made this all possible.And while I'm at it, on 'thank yous,' I think it makes sense forme to thank the love of my life, the rock of the Obama family, the closer on the campaign trail; give it up for Michelle Obama.I know you didn't do this for me. You did this-you did this because you believed so deeply in the most American of ideas - that in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can change it.I know this-I know this because while I may be standing here tonight, I'll never forget that my journey began on the streets of Chicago doing what so many of you have done for this campaign and all the campaigns here in Iowa - organizing, and working, and fighting to make people's lives just a little bit better.I know how hard it is. It comes with little sleep, little pay, anda lot of sacrifice. There are days of disappointment, but sometimes, just sometimes, there are nights like this - a night-a night that, years from now, when we've made the changes we believe in; when more families can afford to see a doctor; when our children-when Malia and Sasha and your children-inherit a planet that's a little cleaner and safer; when the world sees America differently, and America sees itself as a nation less divided and more united; you'll be able to look back with pride and say that this was the moment when it all began.This was the moment when the improbable beat what Washington always said was inevitable.This was the moment when we tore down barriers that have divided us for too long - when we rallied people of all parties and ages to a common cause; when we finally gave Americans who'd never participated in politics a reason to stand up and to do so.This was the moment when we finally beat back the politics of fear, and doubt, and cynicism; the politics where we tear each other down instead of lifting this country up. This was themoment.Years from now, you'll look back and you'll say that this was the moment - this was the place - where America remembered what it means to hope.For many months, we've been teased, even derided for talking about hope.But we always knew that hope is not blind optimism. It's not ignoring the enormity of the task ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path. It's not sitting on the sidelines or shirking from a fight. Hope is that thing inside us that insists, despite all evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us if we have the courage to reach for it, and to work for it, and to fight for it.Hope is what I saw in the eyes of the young woman in Cedar Rapids who works the night shift after a full day of college and still can't afford health care for a sister who's ill; a young woman who still believes that this country will give her the chance to live out her dreams.Hope is what I heard in the voice of the New Hampshire woman who told me that she hasn't been able to breathe since her nephew left for Iraq; who still goes to bed each night praying for his safe return.Hope is what led a band of colonists to rise up against an empire; what led the greatest of generations to free a continent and heal a nation; what led young women and young men to sit at lunch counters and brave fire hoses and march through Selma and Montgomery for freedom's cause.Hope-hope-is what led me here today - with a father from Kenya; a mother from Kansas; and a story that could only happen in the United States of America. Hope is the bedrock of thisnation; the belief that our destiny will not be written for us, but by us; by all those men and women who are not content to settle for the world as it is; who have the courage to remake the world as it should be.That is what we started here in Iowa, and that is the message we can now carry to New Hampshire and beyond; the same message we had when we were up and when we were down; the one that can change this country brick by brick, block by block, calloused hand by calloused hand - that together, ordinary people can do extraordinary things; because we are not a collection of Red States and Blue States, we are the United States of America; and at this moment, in this election, we are ready to believe again. Thank you, Iowa。

奥巴马英文励志演讲稿

Ladies and Gentlemen,Good morning. It is an honor to stand before you today, and I want to share with you a story that I believe resonates with all of us—the story of America, the story of our collective journey, and the story of the power of determination.We find ourselves at a critical juncture in history. The world is changing rapidly, and with it, so are the challenges we face. But let us not forget that change has always been the heartbeat of our nation. It has been the very essence of what makes America exceptional.I stand before you not just as a former President, but as a citizen of this great country, and as a testament to the idea that no matter where you start, you can rise to any height through the power of determination.When I took office eight years ago, America was facing its most daunting challenges in generations. Our economy was in turmoil, our healthcare system was broken, and our planet was at risk. But we did not cower in the face of these challenges. Instead, we embraced them. We took on the giants of our time, and we did not let them define us.We made tough decisions, and we took on the hard work. We passed the Affordable Care Act, not because it was easy, but because it was right. We took on Wall Street reform, not because we wanted to punish anyone, but because we wanted to prevent a crisis like this from ever happening again. We made the most significant investments in clean energy in our history, not because it was convenient, but because it was necessary for the survival of our planet.And through it all, we reminded ourselves that we are not defined by our past, but by our future. We are not limited by our challenges, but empowered by our determination.I want to talk about the power of determination because it is a force that has shaped our nation's history and will continue to shape our future. It is the force that has allowed us to overcome slavery and segregation, to build the most prosperous nation on Earth, and to lead the world in science and technology.Determination is not just about willpower; it is about believing in ourselves and in each other. It is about having the courage to dream big and the perseverance to see those dreams through. It is about knowingthat our efforts, no matter how small, can lead to monumental change.Consider the story of Malala Yousafzai, the young Pakistani girl who stood up for the right to education and was nearly killed for it.Malala's determination did not waver in the face of terror. Shecontinued to fight for the rights of girls around the world, and today, she stands as a symbol of hope and courage.Or think about the millions of Americans who have stood up for what they believe in, from the workers who organized for better wages and working conditions to the activists who fought for civil rights and equality. Their determination has changed our nation and the world for the better.But determination is not just an individual trait; it is a collective strength. It is the power we draw from one another when we stand together, united by a common purpose and a shared vision for the future.We see this power today in the ongoing struggle for justice and equality. The fight for Black lives, the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights, the battlefor voting rights—all these movements are powered by the determination of ordinary people who believe that change is possible and that their voices can make a difference.As we look to the future, we must remember that our destiny is not predetermined. It is not written in stone. It is shaped by our actions, our choices, and our determination. And it is up to each and every oneof us to decide what kind of future we want to build.We must continue to invest in education, so that every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential. We must continue to fight for economic justice, so that hard work is rewarded and prosperity is shared. We must continue to protect our planet, so that future generations can inherit a world that is sustainable and vibrant.And we must never lose sight of the fact that our strength lies not just in our government, but in our communities, our families, and ourselves.We must continue to lift each other up, to support each other, and to believe in the power of our collective humanity.In closing, I want to leave you with a few thoughts. First, rememberthat determination is a journey, not a destination. It is about the path we take, the obstacles we overcome, and the progress we make along the way.Second, remember that determination is not just about success. It is about the effort we put into our goals, even when we do not achieve them. It is about the courage to try again, to fail, and to learn from our mistakes.Finally, remember that determination is not a solo endeavor. It is about coming together, supporting one another, and believing that together, we can achieve anything.America, we are a nation of dreamers and doers. We are a nation of strivers and believers. We are a nation of people who, through the power of determination, have overcome adversity and built a future that is brighter than our past.So let us continue to dream big, to work hard, and to embrace the challenges of our time. Let us continue to show the world that Americais not just a place, but an idea—a powerful idea that anyone, anywhere can rise to any height through the power of determination.Thank you. God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.。

It is an honor to stand before you today at [University Name], a place that has long been known for its commitment to excellence, its spirit of inquiry, and its dedication to making a difference in the world.

But education is not a destination; it is a journey.It is a continuous process of learning, of growing, of adapting to change.As you move forward, remember that education is not just about what you learn in the classroom. It is also about what you learn from the world around you. Engage with diverse perspectives, listen to the voices of those who may not share your opinions, and challenge yourself to think critically about the issues that matter most to you.The Importance of ServiceService is the essence of what it means to be an American. It is the thread that binds us together, the common ground upon which we stand.

Whether it is volunteering at a local shelter, tutoring students in need, or working with organizations that fight for social justice, service can transform your life and the lives of those around you.Service is not just a one-time act; it is a way of life. It is about finding meaning in your work, about finding purpose in your actions. It is about recognizing that every small act of kindness has the potential to make a big difference.Your Role in Shaping the FutureEach and every one of you has the power to shape the future. You are the architects of your own destiny, the innovators who will solve theworld's most pressing problems, and the leaders who will inspire others to make a difference.As you graduate from [University Name], you will face a world that is both challenging and full of opportunities. The global challenges we face today – from climate change to economic inequality to political polarization – require innovative solutions and courageous leadership.You have the skills, the knowledge, and the passion to rise to these challenges.

Fight for it now, fight for it always, and fight for it with allthat you have."Ladies and gentlemen, the future is in your hands. Embrace it with passion, with purpose, and with a commitment to making a difference. Thank you for the honor of being with you today. Go forth and change the world.Thank you.。

英文原文:Ladies and Gentlemen,It is an honor to stand before you today and share a few thoughts on the power of dreams and the courage to pursue them. As you may know, I have had the privilege of serving as the President of the United States, and during my time in office, I have seen the incredible resilience and determination of the American people. But let me tell you, it all starts with a dream.Dreams are the fuel that powers our souls. They are the light that guides us through the darkest of times. And they are the reason why we rise above our challenges and achieve greatness. In the words of the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "If you can dream it, you can do it."I remember growing up in a small town in Hawaii, the son of a white father and a black mother. My childhood was filled with dreams, big dreams. I dreamt of becoming a president, of making a difference in the lives of people, of uniting a nation that had been divided for far too long. But dreams alone are not enough. They require courage, perseverance, and hard work.When I first ran for the presidency, I was told that I was too young, too inexperienced, and that I didn't have what it takes to lead. But I didn't let that discourage me. Instead, I chose to embrace the challenge and work even harder. I believed in the power of dreams, and I knew that if I stayed true to my vision, I could make a difference.And so, I embarked on a journey that would change my life and the lives of millions of Americans. We faced obstacles and setbacks along the way, but we never lost sight of our dreams. We fought for healthcare reform, for equality, for justice, and for a more hopeful future. And little by little, we made progress.Today, I stand before you as a testament to the power of dreams and the courage to pursue them. I am not the same man who stood on that stage eight years ago. I have grown, I have learned, and I have beentransformed by the experiences of serving as the President of the United States.But let me remind you, my friends, that this journey does not end with me. It continues with you. Each and every one of you has the power to dream and the courage to pursue those dreams. Whether you aspire to be a doctor, a teacher, an engineer, or an artist, know that your dreams are valid, and they are within your reach.Here are a few lessons I have learned on this journey that I hope will inspire you:1. Believe in Yourself: The first step to pursuing your dreams is to believe in yourself. You are capable of achieving greatness, but you must first believe that you are worthy of it.2. Surround Yourself with Good People: Dreams are hard to achieve alone. Find mentors, friends, and family who will support you and help you along the way.3. Stay True to Your Values: Your dreams should align with your values. Stay true to who you are and what you stand for, and you will never go wrong.4. Be Persistent: Pursuing a dream is not an easy journey. There will be challenges and setbacks, but you must stay persistent. Remember why you started and keep pushing forward.5. Embrace Failure: Failure is not the end, it is a stepping stone. Learn from your mistakes, and use them as fuel to propel you forward.6. Dream Big: Don't settle for anything less than your best. Aim high, and you will be surprised by what you can achieve.7. Help Others: As you pursue your dreams, remember to help others along the way. Your success is not just about you; it is about making a positive impact on the world.Ladies and Gentlemen,The power of dreams and the courage to pursue them is a force that can change the world. It is the force that has driven us as a nation to overcome adversity, to innovate, and to lead. And it is the force that will continue to drive us forward, even as we face new challenges and opportunities.So, I urge you to dream big, to be courageous, and to never give up. Your dreams are not just for you; they are for your family, for your friends, for your community, and for the world. And when you pursue those dreams with all your heart, you will not only achieve success, but you will also inspire others to do the same.Thank you, and may the dreams you chase today lead you to a brighter tomorrow.中文翻译:女士们,先生们,今天能站在这里与大家分享关于梦想的力量以及追求梦想的勇气的思考,我感到非常荣幸。

奥巴马的英语演讲稿想不想要知道那些名人的英语演讲稿?我特地为大家收集了几位名人的经典演讲稿,下面分享给大家。

刘慈欣英语演讲稿Ladies and Gentleman,Good evening!It’s my great honor to receive the Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society. Thank you.This award is a reward for imagination. Imagination is a capability that should have exclusive belonged to God but we, as human beings, luckily have this too. It is far beyond our imagination to grasp the meaning of the existence of imagination. A historian used to say that the main reason why human beings have been able to surpass other species on earth and to build civilizations is that we are able to create something in our heads that does not exist in reality. In the future, when artificial intelligence becomes smarter than us, imagination may be the only advantage we have over AI.Science fiction is a literary genre based on imagination. And the first sci-fi works that impressed me were those by Arthur C. Clarke. Together with Jules Verne and George Wells,Arthur Clarke was among the first Western modern sci-fi writers to enter China. In the early 1980s, the two novels 20xx: A Space Odyssey and Rendezvous With Rama were published in my country. At that time, the Cultural Revolution just ended. While the old life and faith had collapsed, the new ones had not yet been established. Like other young people, I felt lost during that period. These two books, for the first time, however, brought my imagination to life. My mind opened up like it has never before. I felt like a narrow stream finally embracing the sea.At midnight when I finished reading 20xx: A Space Odyssey, I walked out of the house and stared at the starry sky. I was able to see the galaxy, thanks to the unpolluted sky of China back then. That night, I noticed that the starry sky looked nothing like before. For the first time in my life, I was awed by the magnitude and mystery of our universe, the feeling which you only get facing religion. Later on, the novel Rendezvous With Rama stunned me by showing how imagination could build a lifelike, fantastic world. It was Arthur Clarke who opened up this world of feelings to me, and who paved my way to become a sci-fi writer.Today, more than 30 years later, it gradually dawns on me that people like me, who were born in the 1960s in China,are probably the luckiest people in human history. No generation is like us, no generation has been able to witness such tremendous changes in the world around us. The world we are living in today is completely different from that of our childhood. And such changes are taking place with even greater speed.China is a highly futuristic country. It is true that the future of China may be full of challenges and risks, but never has this country been so attractive like today. This reality provides fertile soil for the growth of science fiction, and it is enjoying unprecedented attention in the country. As a Chinese sci-fi author, who was born in the 1960s, I’m the luckiest from the luckiest generation.I started writing sci-fi because I looked for a way to escape the dull life, and to reach out, with imagination, to the mysterious time and space that I could never truly reach. But then I realized that the world around me became more and more like science fiction, and this process is speeding up. Future is like pouring rain. It reaches us even before we have time to open the umbrella. Meanwhile, when sci-fi becomes reality, it loses all its magic, and that frustrates me. Sci-fi will soon become part of our lives. The only thing I can do,is to push my imagination further to even more distant time and space to hunt for the mysteries of sci-fi. As a sci-fi author, I think my job is to write things down before they get really boring.This being said, the world is moving in the direction opposite to Clarke’s predictions. In 20xx: A Space Odyssey, in the year of 20xx, which has already passed, human beings have built magnificent cities in space, and established permanent colonies on the moon, and huge nuclear-powered spacecraft have sailed to Saturn. However, today, in 20xx, the walk on the moon has become a distant memory. And the furthest reach of our manned space flights is just as long as the two-hour mileage of a high-speed train passing through my city.At the same time, information technology is developing at an unimaginable speed. The entire world is connected via the internet and people have gradually lost their interest in space, as they find themselves increasingly comfortable in the space created by IT. Instead of an exploration of the real space, which is full of difficulties, people now just prefer to experiencing virtual space through VR. Just like someone said, "You promised me an ocean of stars, but you actually gave me Facebook."This reality is also reflected in science fiction. Arthur Clarke’s magnificent imagination about space has gradually faded away. People stopped looking at starry skies. In the sci-fi works today, there are more imagination about how we live in cyber utopia or dystopia. Writers focus more on various problems we encounter in reality. The imagination of science fiction is abandoning the vastness and profoundness that Arthur Clarke once opened up, instead people are now embracing the narrowness and introversion of cyberpunk.As a sci-fi writer, I have been striving to continue Arthur Clarke’s imagination. I believe that the boundless space is still the best direction and destination for human imagination. I have always written about the magnitude and mysteries of the universe, interstellar expeditions, and the lives and civilizations happening in distant worlds. This remains today, although this may seem childish or even outdated. It says on Arthur Clarke’s epitaph, "He never grew up, but he never stopped growing."Many people misunderstand sci-fi as trying to predict the future, but this is not true. It just makes a list of possibilities of what may happen in the future, like displaying a pile of cobblestones for people to see and play with. Sciencefiction can never tell which scenario of the future will actually become the real future. This is not its job. It’s also beyond its capabilities.But one thing is certain: in the long run, for all these countless possible futures, any future without space travel is gloomy, no matter how prosperous our own planet becomes.Sci-fi was writing about the age of digital information and it eventually became true. I now look forward to the time when space travel finally becomes the ordinary. By then, Mars and the asteroid belts will be boring places and countless people are building a home over there. Jupiter and its many satellites will be tourist attractions. The only obstacle preventing people from going there for good, will be the crazy price.But even at that time, the universe is still unimaginably big that even our wildest imagination fails to catch its edge. And even the closest star remains out of reach. The vast ocean of stars can always carry our infinite imagination.Thank you all.马云的全英文演讲稿Good evening everyone!大家晚上好!Dear chancellor Merkel,deputy prime ministerMakai,ladies and gentlemen,it’s my great honor to speak in the CeBIT.尊敬的默克尔总理,马凯副总理,女士们先生们,非常荣幸能够在CeBIT上进行演讲!I remember 14 years ago,when I first came to Hannover,I try to rent a small booth to sell the Chinese products to the west and to the Europe ,That’s been a long time to looking for the booth,and at that time Hannover was not that prosperious,but the fair was very successful.记得20xx年以前,我第一次来到汉诺威时,我们试着租了一个小小的展位来出售中国产品到西方,到欧洲。
