米歇尔·奥巴马在2022年大学时机峰会英语演讲稿Thank you. (Applause.) Thank you all so much. Thank you. Well, you guys rest yourselves. You’ve been very busy. (Laughter.) You’re being spoken to a lot. I hear my husband was here. (Laughter.) But it is truly a pleasure to be here with all of you today, and I want to thank you so much for joining us for this year’s College Opportunity Day of Action. You should be proud. We’re already proud of you, and this day has just already been a tremendous success.Of course I want to start by thanking Homero. I mean, he’s just an amazing story, an amazingperson, and I’m grateful for that wonderful introduction. We have to give him another round ofapplause. (Applause.)A clear reminder of why we’re here today and what we’re working for.I also want to recognize the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation, as well as the Lumina Foundation, forhelping to make this event possible. Let’s give them a round of applause as well. (Applause.)And of course, as we come together to talk about the importance of college counseling, Iespecially want to recognize all of the school counselors here today. Yes! (Applause.) You canraise the roof for yourselves. A little raising the roof. (Laughter.) But I think we can all agreethat all of our counselors, all of you have one of the hardest, but most important jobs in oureducation system, yet too often you don’t get the resources, the support or the appreciationthat you need and deserve. And that has serious consequences not just for our kids, but forour country.I mean, let’s be honest with ourselves – when it comes to college counseling in our nation’sschools, there are two worlds. As many of you know, while the American School CounselorAssociation recommends no more than 250 students per counselor, the national average is onecounselor forevery 471 students. So too many of our kids go through high school with little, ifany, real guidance on how to get into college.They don’t know what classes to take, or how to prepare for the SAT or the ACT. No one helpsthem decide which colleges to apply to. No one reviews their applications. And plenty of kidshave no idea that they’re eligible for financial aid, so they assume they just can’t afford college,and they don’t even bother to apply.Now, that’s one world. The other world is much smaller – it’s a world of schools where thequestion isn’t where students are going to college, but – or whether they’re going to college,but where. Kids in this world start preparing for college long before they even start high school.And from the first day of freshman year, they’ve been shepherded through every step of theprocess. They’ve got SAT and ACT prep courses, they take those tests again and again toimprove their scores. Counselors have much smaller caseloads, and they walk kids throughevery deadline, they edit every draft of their essays. Honestly, when Barack and I talk aboutthis, we look at the kind of college counseling many of the kids are getting today and we wonderhow we ever managed to get ourselves into college.So the fact is that right now, a small number of students are getting every advantage in thecollege admissions race, while millions of other students who are just as talented can’t evenbegin to compete. (Applause.) And as the college presidents here all know, the result is thatcolleges aren’t always getting all of the very best students. They’re getting the students whocan best afford to succeed in this system. And we are leaving behind so many bright, hungry,promise-filled kids. We are depriving ourselves of so much human potential in this country –from the scientific discoveries these kids might make, to the businesses that theymight build,to the leadership that they might one day show in our communities.We’re missing all of that. We’re also losing all of that simply because we aren’t making the basicinvestment in their future today, and that’s a tragedy. It’s a tragedy for our country. It’s atragedy for those kids and for their families, because we all know – we know – that if you wantto secure a decent-paying job in today’s economy, a high school diploma simply isn’t enough.So unlike 40 or 50 years ago, higher education is no longer just for kids in the top quarter orthe top half of the class, it has to be for everyone. So we are going to need a college-counselingsystem that reflects this new reality. (Applause.)Now, that’s easier said than done. We know that this isn’t going to happen overnight. We knowthat states and school systems are facing all kinds of budget challenges. But one of my coremessages to students through my Reach Higher initiative is that no matter what is going on attheir school or in their family, I’ve been trying to tell kids that no matter what resources theymay have or not have, that they still need to take responsibility for their education. I tell themthat they need to do the work to reach out to teachers who can help them. They need toresearch schools in their communities on their own. They need to find that FAFSA form onlineand fill it out.So my message to all of you is the same: We all need to step up and do what we can with theresources we have, especially when it comes to supporting our school counselors. And that isexactly what so many of you have done through the commitments you’ve made as part of thissummit.Universities across the country have pledged to create college and career-readiness courses intheir masters programs for school counselors. School districts are partnering with nonprofits andcolleges to providetraining for counselors once they’re in our schools. Nonprofits are steppingup to improve student-and-counselor ratios and bringing recent graduates into schools toserve as role models and mentors.And these are just the highlights. Altogether, these commitments represent tens of millions ofdollars that will impact hundreds of schools and countless students. These are outstandingcommitments, and we need more efforts like these all across this country. Every one of us has arole to play.So for the superintendents here today, I know you all are struggling with so many demandsunder such tight budgets, but can you do more to support your counselors? Can you find waysto – (applause) – yes –shift some of that extra burden that falls in their lap, like substituteteaching, case management, exam proctoring? Can you give them more time to actuallycounsel students?To the college presidents here, can you do even more to make college counseling part of yourmission to get the very best students to your schools? And can the foundations and nonprofitorganizations help in that work? Can you rethink the college admissions process to find more ofthose students who’ve got what it takes to succeed but haven’t had the chance to develop theirpotential? Can you create college prep centers in your communities and ensure that test-prepclasses are affordable for all of our kids?And for those of you who are concerned that perhaps this type of involvement might falselyraise hopes of admission to your school –because I’ve heard that as well – just consider the factthat while many of the kids you help might not be the right fit for your college or university,but they will be the right fit for another school, and maybe that other school will help preparestudents for admission to your school. (Applause.)So this is really a collective effort, and everyone can benefit. And as you all step up to take onthese issues, really, I really want to hear about what you’re doing. And that’s one of the reasonswhy I recently announced two new Reach Higher Commencement Challenges. I’m askingcolleges to create videos showcasing your work to bring low-income and first-generationstudents to your campuses for peer mentoring, college immersion experiences and all kind ofwonderful opportunities.And for the high schools, I want to see videos about what you’re doing to increase your FAFSAcompletion rates to help more students afford college. And for those schools with the winningvideos, I just might pay a visit around commencement time, if you know what I mean – (laughter) – to let you know how impressed I am.So I hope that you all will go to and get more information, because I’m eagerto see what you all are doing. I know you’re going to do some great things. You see, I know thatthe smallest, most local efforts can make such a difference in the lives of our young people.And I’m thinking today of a school called La Cueva High School in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Afew years ago, the college counseling staff at that school met with a young woman namedRoberta Gutierrez during her sophomore year. Roberta was an excellent student, so they urgedher to take the PSAT and come up with a list of colleges that she wanted to apply to. Now, whileRoberta took the test, she never came up with that list – and I’m sure you know why.But then, at the beginning of Roberta’s school year, her counselors learned that she had beennamed a National Merit Semi-Finalist with a PSAT score in the top 1 percent of the entire state.So the counselors – yes, good stuff – (applause) – the counselors immediately informedRoberta that she would be eligible for thousands of dollars in scholarships. And Roberta, ofcourse, she was shocked. She told them that she never made thelist of colleges because herfamily lived from paycheck to paycheck, so she didn’t think she could afford tuition. She toldthem that just to pay the $15 fee to take the PSAT, she had to skip lunch for a week.And after meeting with Roberta, the counseling staff decided that no student at their schoolwould ever again have to choose between eating and taking a test that opens the doors tocollege. So they now hold fundraisers – yes. (Applause.) They hold fundraisers throughout theschool year to ensure that low-income students can take the PSAT for free. And they go out oftheir way to tell every family about the financial aid resources that are available for college.And as for Roberta, she is now in her junior year on a full scholarship at the University of NewMexico, and she’s planning to get a PhD in psychology – yes. (Applause.)You all know these stories. There are so many kids just like Roberta all across this country, andthey’re bright. These kids are determined. These are the kids who have everything it takes tosucceed if we would just give them that chance. And that’s what the counselors and leaders atLa Cueva High School did for Roberta – they gave her a shot at the future she deserved.And just think about the ripple effect that those counselors will have in transforming just onestudent’s life. Think about the difference Roberta can make when she gets that PhD. Think of allthe patients she might treat, all the groundbreaking research she might do. Think of the rolemodel that she will be – she already is – inspiring countless young people just like her topursue their dreams.There are millions of young people like Roberta all across this country, and they are counting onus to step up for them. They’re counting on us to give them opportunities worthy of theirpromise. And that is exactly what all of you are doing every single day. That is the purposeofthe commitments that you’ve made as part of this summit. That’s why I’m proud and honoredto be here.And I want to close today simply by saying thank you, truly. Thank you. Thank you for yourpassion. Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your tremendous contributions to thiscountry. I look forward to continuing our work together. We got a lot more stuff to do. And Icannot wait to see all that you are going to achieve in the months and years ahead.So thank you so much. Keep it up. And let’s bring more people to the table. You all take care.Thanks so much. (Applause.)。

Remarks by the First Lady at Number Seven School Chengdu, ChinaMarch 25, XXNi hao. It is truly a pleasure to be here at the Number Seven School. Thankyou so much for your warm welcome.Now, before I get started, on behalf of myself and my husband, I want to say that ourhearts go out to all those with loved ones on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. As I saidthis past weekend when I spoke at Peking University, we are very much keeping all ofthem in our thoughts and our prayers at this tremendously difficult time.So now, let me start by thanking your Principal, Principal Liu, and your classmate,Ju Chao, for that wonderful introduction. Your English, Ju Chao, is excellent, andyou should be very proud. Thank you so much. (Applause.) And I want to thankall of the students here today, both those of you here in person and those of youjoining remotely from across the region. I’m thrilled to be visiting your wonderfulschool.Now, in preparation for this visit, before I left the U.S. I visited the Yu Ying School.It’s a public school near the White House in Washington, D.C., and all of the studentsat this school study Chinese. And I met with the sixth-grade class, kids who are 11and 12 years old. They had recently taken a trip here to China, and they werebursting with excitement. They were eager to tell me about everything about whatthey had seen.But they admitted that before their trip, they had all kinds of misconceptions aboutChina. They thought they would see palaces and temples everywhere they went, butinstead they found massive cities filled with skyscrapers. They weren’t sure thatthey’d like the food here in China, but they actually loved it, and they learned how touse chopsticks. And in the end, one of the students told me –- and this is his quote-- he said, “Coming home was really exciting, but was at the same time sad.”Now, meeting these students reminded me that when we live so far away fromeach other, it’s easy to develop all kinds of misconceptions and stereotypes. It’seasy to focus on our differences –- how we speak different languages and eatdifferent foods and observe different traditions. But as I travel the world, and I meetyoung people from so many countries, I’m always struck by how much more we havein common. And that’s been particularly true during my visit here in China.You see, the truth is that I grew up like many of you. My mom, my dad, mybrother and I, we lived in a tiny apartment in Chicago, which is one of the largestcities in America. My father worked at the local water plant. And we didn’t havemuch money, but our little home was bursting with love. Every evening, my familywould laugh and share stories over dinner. We’d play card games and have fun forhours. And on summer nights, I remember, when our apartment got too hot, we’dall sleep outside on our back porch.Family meant everything to us, including our extended family. My grandparentslived nearby, and my elderly great aunt and uncle lived in the apartment downstairsfrom us. And when their health started to decline my parents stepped in, helping myuncle shave and dress each morning, dashingdownstairs in the middle of the night tocheck on my aunt.So in my family, like in so many of your families, we took care of each other.And while we certainly weren’t rich, my parents had big dreams for me and mybrother. They had only a high school education themselves, but they weredetermined to send us both to universities.So they poured all of their love and all of their hope into us, and they worked hard.They saved every penny. And I know that wasn’t easy for them, especially for myfather. You see, my father had a serious illness called multiple sclerosis. And as hegot sicker, it got harder for him to walk, and it took him longer to get dressed in themorning.But no matter how tired he felt, no matter how much pain he was in, my fatherhardly ever missed a day of work, because he was determined to give me and mybrother a better life. And every day, like so many of you, I felt the weight of myparents’ sacrifices on my shoulders. Every day, I wanted to make them proud.So while most American kids attend public schools near their homes, when it wastime for me to attend high school, I took an exam and got into a special public highschool where I could get a better education. But the school was very far from myhome, so I had to get up early every morning and ride a bus for an hour, sometimes anhour and a half if the weather was bad. And every afternoon, I’d ride that same busback home and then immediately start my homework, often studying late into thenight -- and sometimes I would wake up at 4:30 or 5:00 in the morning to study evenmore.And it wasn’t easy. But whenever I got tired or discouraged, I would just thinkabout how hard my parents were working for me. AndI would remember somethingmy mother always told me –- she said: “A good education is something that noone can take away from you.”And when it was time for me to apply to university,I had many options, because inAmerica, there are many kinds of universities. There are four-year universities.There are two-year community colleges which are less expensive. There areuniversities where you take classes at night while working during the day. So youdon’t have to be a top student to attend a university. And even if your parents don’t have much money or you live in a tiny town in a rural area, in America, you can stillattend university. And you can get scholarships and government loans to help payyour tuition.So I attended Princeton University for my undergraduate degree, and I went onto Harvard University for my graduate degree in law.And with those degrees I wasable to become a lawyer at a large law firm, and then I worked as an executive at acity hospital, and then I was the director of an organization that helped disadvantagedyoung people.And my story isn’t unusual in America. Some of our most famous athletes, likeLeBron James, and artists, like the singer Janelle Monae, came from strugglingfamilies like mine, as do many business leaders –like Howard Schultz. He’s thehead of a company called Starbucks, which many of you may have heard of. WhenMr. Schultz was a boy his father lost his job, leaving their family destitute. But Mr.Schultz worked hard. He got a scholarship to a university, and eventually built thelargest coffeehouse company in the world.And then there’s this other guy I know who was raised by a single mother whosometimes struggled to afford food for their family.But like me, this guy gotscholarships and loans to attend universities. He became a lawyer and a professor,and then he was a state senator and then a national senator. And then, he becamePresident of the United States. This guy I’m talking about is my husband, BarackObama. (Applause.)These stories are the stories of so many Americans, and of America itself.Because in America, we believe that no matter where you live or how much moneyyour parents have, or what race or religion or ethnicity you are, if you work hard andbelieve in yourself, then you should have a chance to succeed. We also believe thateveryone is equal, and that we all have the right to say what we think and worship aswe choose, even when others don’t like what we say or don’t always agree with whatwe believe.Now of course, living up to these ideals isn’t always easy. And there have beentimes in our history where we have fallen short. Many decades ago, there wereactually laws in America that allowed discrimination against black people like me, who are a minority in the United States. But over time, ordinary citizens decidedthat those laws were unfair. So they held peaceful protests and marches. Theycalled on government officials to change those laws, and they voted to elect newofficials who shared their views.And slowly but surely, America changed. We got rid of those unjust laws. Andtoday, just 50 years later, my husband and I are President and First Lady of the UnitedStates. And that is really the story of America –- how over the course of our shorthistory, through so many trials and struggles, we have become more equal, moreinclusive, and more free.And today in America, people of every race,religion and ethnicity live togetherand work together to build a better life for their children and grandchildren. And inthe end, that deep yearning to leave something better for those who come after us, thatis something we all truly share. In fact, there’s a Chinese saying that I love that says,“To achieve true happiness, help the next generation.”And like so many of your parents, my parents sacrificed so much so that I could haveopportunities they never dreamed of. And today, as a mother myself, I want evenmore opportunities for my own daughters. But of course, as I always tell mydaughters, with opportunities come obligations.And that is true for all of you as well. You all have the opportunity to receive aneducation from this wonderful school, and you all have an obligation to take thefullest advantage of this opportunity. And I know that’s exactly what you all aredoing.You’re winning prizes in math and science. Here, you are staging musicalperformances around the world. You’re volunteering in your communities. Andmany of you are working hard to get an education your parents never dreamed of.So you all have so much to offer –- and that’s a good thing, because the worldneeds your talent. The world needs your creativity and energy more than ever before.Because we face big challenges that know no borders –- like improving the qualityof our air and water, ensuring that people have good jobs, stopping the spread ofdisease. And soon, it will all fall to all of you to come together with people on everycontinent and solve these problems together.Now, fortunately, here at this wonderful school, you’re already well on your way.For more than a decade, you’ve been building special relationships with a Americanschool in -- an American high school, and many of you will attend universities inAmerica or find other ways to reach out beyond your borders.So in the years ahead, much like you and I are doing here today, you will becreating bonds of friendship across the globe that will last for decades to come. Andover the past week, as I have seen both the ancient wonders and the modernachievements of your fascinating country, and as I’ve met with extraordinary youngpeople like all of you, I am more confident than ever before in our shared future.And I cannot wait to see everything that you will achieve here in China and aroundthe world.Thank you again for hosting me and my family at this extraordinary school, and Iwish you all the best of luck in your journey ahead. Xie-Xie. (Applause.)米歇尔在成都七中演讲全文奇速英语整理你好。
米歇尔演讲稿

Thank you all. Thank you so much. You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House?I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world. And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington.When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns. And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done?See, because at that moment I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation for who they would bee and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them.That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight, how we urge them to ignore those who question their father’s citizenship or faith. How we insist that the hatefullanguage they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level. No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high.With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models. And let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls, but the children across this country, kids who tell us I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school. Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope and he wondered, is my hair like yours?And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls that is what we’re deciding, not Democrat or Republican, not left or right. No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.And I am here tonight because in this election there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.That’s right. See, I trust Hillary to lead this country because I’ve seen her lifelong devotion to our nation’s children, not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion, kids who take the long way to schoolto avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they’ll ever afford college, kids whose parents don’t speak a word of English, but dream of a better life, kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be.You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives, advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children’s health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the Senate.And when she didn’t win the nomination eight years ago, she didn’t get angry or disillusioned. Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments. So she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs. But here’s the thing. What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life. And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your mand, you can’t make snap decisions. You can’t have a thin skin or a tendency to lash out. You need to be steady and measured and well-informed.I want a president with a record of public service, someone whose life’s work shows our children that we don’t chase fame and fortune for ourselves, we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.And we give back even when we’re struggling ourselves because we know that there is always someone worse off. And there but for the grace of God go I.I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters, a president who truly believes in the vision that our Founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story.And when crisis hits, we don’t turn against each other. No, we listen to each other, we lean on each other, because we are always stronger together.And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be. And that’s why in this election I’m with her.You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only, it’s about leaving something better for our kids. That’s how we’ve always moved this country forward, by all of us ing together on behalf of our children, folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village.Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty, police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe. People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter in that club.Leaders like Tim Kaine who show our kids what decency and devotion look like. Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep ing back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her.That is the story of this country, the story that has brought me to this stage tonight, the story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women playing with their dogs on the White House lawn.And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.So, look, so don’t let anyone ever tell you that this country isn’t great, that somehow we need to make it great again. Because this right now is the greatest country on earth!And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader who is worthy of my girls’promise and all our kids’promise, a leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best. We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical. No, hear me. Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America!So let’s get to work. Thank you all and God bless.。

In these dresses that you see and this room, we see the incredible promise that lies within ournext generation. And that’s really what today is all about -– it’s about all of you young peoplewho are here in this room with us, and all the young people who couldn’t be in this room, andyour dreams. We really do focus on how you’re going to get where you’re going to go. Andthat’s what this is all about. I know that many of you are hoping to one day pursue a career in fashion, and that’s why weinvited you here today -- because we want you to really understand what it’s going to take tobe successful. And we want you to see firsthand that a solid cation and the willingness towork hard is really at the core of what it’s going to take to achieve your goals: cation andhard work. It’s that simple. Today’s workshop is one in a series of events that we have done over the past six years foryoung people across the country. We have been doing this since the day we entered the WhiteHouse for young people. We want them to be in this house and experience the things thatthey’repassionate about. And this workshop is one of many -- whether it’s music or dance orpoetry, our mission is always the same: to inspire you guys to dream bigger, to reach higher,and then, most importantly, to pull somebody else up with you along the way. Because your sitting in these seats makes you really special, but it doesn’t make you unique.Because you know for every kid that is sitting in this chair, you know probably 10 others whocould be sitting in this chair. So that’s where the giveback es in, because you’ve got to bethinking, “I was lucky and blessed to be here, so what am I going to do to share these gifts withsomebody else?”。

It is such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university...thank you so much for having me.And before I get started today, on behalf of myself and my husband, I just want to say a few very brief words about Malaysian Airlines Flight 370.As my husband has said, the United States is offering as many resources as possible to assist in the search.And please know that we are keeping all the families and loved ones of those on this flight in our thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time.And with that, I want to start by recognizing our new Ambassador to China, AmbassadorBaucus...President Wang...Chairman Zhu...Vice President Li...Director Cueller, Professor Oi and the Stanford Center...President Sexton from New York University which has an excellent study abroad program in Shanghai... and John Thornton, Director of the Global Leadership Program at Tsinghua University.. .thank you all so much for joining us.And most of all, I want to thank all of the students for being here today. ..and I particularly want to thank Eric Schafer and Zhu Xuanhao for that extraordinary English and Chinese introduction. That was such a powerful symbol of everything I want to talk with you about today.You see, by learning each other's languages - and by showing such curiosity and respect for each other's cultures - Mr. Schafer and Ms.Zhu and all of you are building bridges of understanding that lead to so much more.And I'm here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among oeoole like you across the globe.We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you.Because we believe that relationships between nations aren't just about relationships betweengovernments or leaders...they're about relationships between people, particularly our young people.That's why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don't just visit palaces and parliaments and meet with heads of state.We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you.Because we believe that relationships between nations aren't just about relationships betweengovernments or leaders...they're about relationships between people, particularly our young people.So we view study abroad programs not just as an educationalopportunity for students... but also as a vital part of America's foreign policy.You see, through the wonders of modern technology, our world is more connected than ever before. Ideas can cross oceans with the click ofa button.Companies can do business and compete with companies across the globe. And we can text, email and skype with people on every continent.So studying abroad isn't just a fun way to spend a semester 一 it's quickly becoming the key to success in our global economy.Because getting ahead in today's workplaces isn't just about getting good grades or test scores in school...it's also about having real experience with the world beyond your borders -experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own.Or, as the Chinese saying goes: "It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to rea d ten thousand books.”But let's be clear, studying abroad is about so much more than improving your own future - it's also about shaping the future of your countries and of the world we all share.Because when it comes to the defining challenges of our time - whether it's climate change, or economic opportunity, or the spread of nuclear weapons... these are shared challenges.No one country can confront them alone.. .the only way forward...That’s why it's so important for young people like you to live and study in each other's countries. Because that’s how you develop that habit of cooperation 一 you do it by immersing yourself in someone else's culture...by learning each other's stories?and by getting past the stereotypes and misconceptions that too often divide us.That's how you come to understand how much we all share.And that's how you realize that we all have a stake in each other's success - that cures discovered here in Beijing could save lives in America. ? .that clean energy technologies from Silicon Valley in California could improve the environment here in China...that the architecture of an ancient temple in Xi'an could inspire the design of new buildings in Dallas or DetroitAnd that's when the connections you make as classmates or labmates can blossom into something more.That's what happened when Abigail Coplin became an American Fulbright Scholar here at Peking University.She and her colleagues published papers together in top science journals.. .and they built research partnerships that lasted long after they returned to their home countries.Professor Niu Ke from Peking University was a Fulbright Scholar in the U.S. last year...and he reported, and I quote, ‘The most memorable experiences were with my American friends."These lasting bonds represent the true value of studyingabroad. ..and I am thrilled that more and more students are getting this opportunity.China is currently the fifth most popular destination for Americans studying abroad.And today, the highest number of exchange students in the U.S. are from China.But still, too many students never have this chance. ? .and some that do are hesitant to take it. They may feel like study abroad is only for wealthy students, or students from certain kinds of universities.Or they may think to themselves, “Well, that sounds fun, but howwill it really be useful in my life?" I understand where these young people are coming from, because I felt the same way back when I wasin college.You see, I came from a working class family.. .and it never even ocurried to me to study abroad.My parents didn't get to attend college, arid I was focused ongetting into a university and earning my degree so I could get a job and support myself.And for a lot of young people like me who are struggling to afford a regular semester of school, paying for plane tickets or living expenses halfway around the world just isn't possible.And that's not acceptable, because study abroad shouldn't just be for students from certainbackgrounds.Our hope is to build connections between people of all races and socioeconomic backgrounds, because it is that diversity that makes our country so vibrant and strong...and our study abroad programs should reflect the true spirit of America to the world.That's why, when my husband visited China back in 201X,he announced our 100,000 Strong initiative to increase the number and diversity of American students studying in China.And this year, as we mark the thirty-fifth anniversary of the normalization of relations between our countries. ? .the U.S. Government actually supports more American students in China than in any other country in the world.We're sending high school, college and graduate students here to study Chinese. ? .we're inviting teachers from China to teach Mandarin in American schools...we're providing free online advising。

名人故事演讲稿 120xx年9月4日,在美国北卡罗来纳州夏洛特举行的民主党全国代表大会上,美国米歇尔激情演讲,为丈夫竞选助阵。
非常感谢,伊莲我们非常感谢来自你家庭的服务和牺牲,我们永远支持你。
过去的几年来,借由作为的非凡殊荣,我几乎游遍了整个美国。
而无论我去到哪里,从我所见到的人们,所听到的故事中,我都看到了最真切的美国精神。
在人们对我和我的家庭,特别是我的女儿们那难以臵信的友善和热情中,我看到了它。
在一个濒临破产的学区的教师们不收分文、坚持执教的誓言中,我看到了它。
在人们在突如其来的紧急召唤下化身英雄,纵身扑向灾害去拯救他人飞过整个国家去扑灭大火驱车数小时去援助被淹没的城镇时,我看到了它。
在我们身着军装的男女军人和自豪的军属身上在受伤的战士们告诉我他们不仅会再次站立行走,而是会奔跑,甚至参加马拉松时在一位于阿富汗因而失明的年轻人―为了我所做的和我还将要做的,我宁愿失去我的眼睛一百次。
这样轻描淡写的话语中,我看到了它。
每一天,我所见到的人们都鼓舞着我每一天,他们都令我骄傲每一天,他们都在提醒我,能够生活在这地球上最伟大的国度中是多么的幸福。
成为诸位的,是我的荣耀和幸运但当我们四年前首次聚在一起的时候,我仍对我们即将展开的旅程心怀疑虑。
对我丈夫心中的祖国愿景,我满怀信心对他将成为一位出色的总统,我也深信不疑但是就像所有的母亲一样,我也曾担心如果他当选,这对我们的女儿们意味着什么。
身处万众瞩目的聚光灯下,我们要如何让他们保持脚踏实地?当他们被迫离开从小熟悉的家、学校、和朋友时,会有什么感受?在搬到华盛顿之前,我们的生活充满简单的快乐周六参加足球赛,周日则在祖母家还有巴拉克和我的约会之夜,我们要么出去晚餐,要么去看场电影,因为作为一个筋疲力尽的老妈,我实在没法同时去晚餐和电影还不打瞌睡。

I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world. And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington. 我那时还向各位说起我们的女儿,说起她们是我们宝贝的心头肉,是我们眼里世界的中心。
来自米歇尔演讲《读万卷书不如行万里路》的思考(转帖)

来自米歇尔演讲《读万卷书不如行万里路》的思考(转帖)高考作文2014-03-24 0919来自米歇尔演讲《读万卷书不如行万里路》的思考【本文摘自一位高一学生的妈妈的博客,这位母亲教子有方,她的博客内容精彩纷呈,展示出一位成功母亲的育子之道。
这篇文章就是她给儿子读过米歇尔在北大的演讲《读万卷书不如行万里路》之后,引导儿子写的一篇读后感。
这篇文章充分显示出这位高一学生深厚的思想、敏锐的洞察力、开阔的视野和流畅的文笔。
值得一读。

饶水知音在此致谢。
——饶水知音】【昨天给儿子打印下来美国总统奥巴马的夫人米歇尔在北大的演讲“读万卷书不如行万里路”,给他一支笔,教给他怎么来阅读这一篇演讲稿。
儿子抱着演讲稿去蹲厕了,在他蹲厕阅读的时间里,我给他起好了习作的题目“来自米歇尔演讲的思考”。
尽管我给儿子说,充分发挥想象,不设一点的局限,想到啥就写啥,但当时我想让他写的是关于中国学生留学的方向问题。
儿子中午饭后,开始写,洋洋洒洒写了2000多字,一气呵成。
——尾和妈】来自米歇尔演讲的思考首先,米歇尔开篇就点出了本次演讲的主要内容和目的:告诉广大学生们,他们是全世界公民交流和文化科技传播的最主要力量。
因为像每个人都知道的那样,如今的科技水平迅速发展,信息在全世界范围内流通,可以使得每个人都拥有依法获取信息和发表言论的权力。
这样看来,信息的交流产生的社会影响甚至可能远远大于政府的调控和决策。
作为总统夫人,米歇尔自然对此事更加了解,因此她希望通过这样的一次演讲交流做好美国和中国社会力量的交流,从另一方面上处理外交关系。
古人云:分久必合,合久必分。
国家间没有永远的敌人,也没有永远的朋友。
当视角放到国家和国家间的时候,利益变成了唯一衡量外交关系的因素。
但是,如果把镜头缩小到国家中的每一个地区政府、每一个团体,每一个社会成员身上时,性质就发生了大大的改变。
再绝情的人也不会仅仅出于利益而不顾感情。

. . Thank you all. Thank you so much. You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.
Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House? I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world. And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington. When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns. And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done? See, because at that moment I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them.
That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the . . spotlight, how we urge them to ignore those who question their father’s citizenship or faith. How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level. No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high.
With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models. And let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls, but the children across this country, kids who tell us I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school. Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope and he wondered, is my hair like yours?
And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls that is what we’re deciding, not Democrat or Republican, not left or right. No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.
And I am here tonight because in this election there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe . . is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.
That’s right. See, I trust Hillary to lead this country because I’ve seen her lifelong devotion to our nation’s children, not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion, kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they’ll ever afford college, kids whose parents don’t speak a word of English, but dream of a better life, kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be.
You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives, advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children’s health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the Senate.
And when she didn’t win the nomination eight years ago, she didn’t get angry or disillusioned. Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments. So she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe. . . And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs. But here’s the thing. What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.
And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.
