从历史维度看，人类社会正处在一个大发展大变革大调整的时代；从现实维度看，我们正处在一个挑战频发的世界。和平赤字、发展赤字、治理赤字，是摆在全人类面前的严峻挑战。古丝绸之路见证了路上'使者相望于道，商旅不绝于途'的盛况，也见证了海上'舶交海中，不知其数'的繁华。进入21世纪，在以和平、发展、合作、共赢为主题的新时代，面对复苏乏力的全球经济形势，纷繁复杂的国际和地区局面，传承和弘扬丝绸之路精神更显重要和珍贵。发展是解决一切问题的总钥匙，2022年9月和10月，中国国家主席___在出访中亚和东南亚国家期间，先后提出共建'丝绸之路经济带'和'21世纪海上丝绸之路'简称'一带一路'的重大倡议，得到国际社会高度关注。一带一路'是促进共同发展、实现共同繁荣的合作共赢之路，是增进理解信任、加强全方位交流的和平友谊之路。中国政府倡议，秉持和平合作、开放包容、互学互鉴、互利共赢的理念，全方位推进务实合作，打造政治互信、经济融合、文化包容的利益共同体、命运共同体和责任共同体。

第3篇 奥巴马告别演讲稿中英文版

巴拉克·奥巴马是美国第44任总统，随着唐纳德·特朗普的当选，奥巴马的任期也即将结束，下面是小编为大家收集了关于奥巴马告别演讲稿中英文版，希望可以帮助到大家。

以下是奥巴马的告别演说全文：

你好，芝加哥!回家的感觉真好!谢谢，谢谢大家!(省略n个谢谢)

在过去几个星期里，我和michelle收到了各种美好的祝愿，我们非常感动，感谢大家对我的支持。今晚我仍然要向你们表达我的感谢，是你们，身处各地，各个场所的每一位美国人让我保持真诚，是你们给了我灵感，并一直激励着我前进。我每天都在向你们学习，是你们让我成为一个更好的总统，成为一个更优秀的人。

我第一次来到芝加哥还是20岁出头的时候，当时我还处在找寻自我的阶段，还在为自己的生活寻找方向。就在离这不远的一个社区，我开始参与教会团体工作。在这些街区，我看到了信仰的力量，看到了劳动人民面对困境和失意时那种安静的尊严。就是在这里，我了解到只有普通民众都参与进来，变革才会发生，只有我们的力量联合起来，社会才会进步。

现在八年时间过去了，我仍然坚信这一点。我相信，这不只是我自己的一个信念，也是我们整个美国思想的核心所在——对自治进行大胆地尝试。

我们的信念一直是，生来平等，造物者赋予我们一些不可剥夺的权利，其中包括生命、自由以及对幸福的追求。这些权利，虽然人人都有，但并不能自动实现。我们，每一个公民，必须通过民主的工具，来创建一个更加完美的国家。

这是造物者赐予我们的礼物，我们拥有用汗水、辛劳和想象力去追逐我们的个人梦想和自由，同时也承担有团结一致，实现更高目标的义务。我们的国家并不是一开始就是完美的，但是我们已经展示出了改变的能力，并为每一位追随者提供更好的生活。

是的，我们的进步并不均衡，民主工作也一直很艰难，同时存在一定的争议，并且有时是血腥的。每向前迈两步，给人的感觉往往是还要往后退一步。但是美国在漫长的发展过程中，我们一直锐意进取，不断拓宽我们的信条，去拥抱所有，而不仅仅是其中一部分。

如果八年前，我告诉你们，美国将扭转大衰退，重振汽车行业，并创造出历史以来最多的就业机会;如果当时我告诉你们，我们将与古巴人民开启一个新的篇章，停止伊朗核武器计划并揪出9/11事件的幕后主使;如果当时我告诉你们，我们将实现婚姻平等，为另外2000万的同胞赢得健康保险的权利;如果当时我告诉你们这些，你们可能会说我的目标定得有点高。但是现在这就是我们所做到的，这就是你们所做到的。是你们促成了这些变化，你们让希望成真，也正是因为你们，现在的美国比我上任时变得更好、更强。

十天之内，世界将会见证我们民主的一个标志：通过自由选举，将总统的权利和平地移交给下一位总统。我向当选总统特朗普承诺，我会为他提供最平稳的过渡，就像布什总统之前为我做的一样。因为我们所有人都需要确保政府可以帮助我们应对目前面临的诸多挑战。

我们需要去应对这些挑战，因为我们仍然是地球上最富有、最强大也最受尊重的国家，我们的青年和发展动力，我们的多样性和开放程度，我们应对风险和进行革新的能力，都在向我们表明未来应该是属于我们的。

但是，只有我们保持民主这些潜力才会发挥出来。只有当我们的政治反映出人民的正直，只有我们所有人，不论党派关系或特殊利益，都有助于推动我们实现共同目的的渴望时，这些潜力才会发挥出来。

民主不需要同一性，我们的领袖会争吵，会妥协，但他们知道民主需要一种基本的团结意识，虽然我们存在各种差异，但我们仍要团结一致，共同进退。

历史上总会有一些时刻会威胁到这种团结，本世纪便是这样的时刻：世界不断变小，不平等持续扩大，人口变化以及恐怖主义蔓延，这些因素不只是对我们国家安全和经济繁荣的考验，也是对我们民主的考验。我们如何来应对这些挑战，将决定我们是否有能力教育好我们的孩子，创造优质的工作，并保护我们的家园。换言之，它将决定我们的未来。

在过去五十年以来，现在的医疗保健成本正在以最慢的速度上升。如果任何人能够制定一个明显优于目前医疗保健系统的改进计划，并尽可能覆盖更多的人，那我一定会公开表示支持。

我当选后，出现了一种说法是美国进入后种族时代(种族歧视已经不存在)，这只是一个愿景，并不是现实。因为种族问题在我们的社会中仍然是一种强有力的分裂力量。虽然这一问题得到了某种程度的改善，但我们每一个人都需要做出更多的努力。毕竟，如果每一个经济问题都被看作是勤劳的白人中产阶级和不受欢迎的少数民族之间的矛盾，那所有种族的工人只能是争夺蝇头小利，而富人坐收渔翁之利。

这一切都不容易。对于我们中的太多人来说，退回到我们自己的温床里最安全，无论是我们的社区或大学校园或礼拜场所或我们的社交媒体中，和那些与我们相似，有着同样的政治背景，从不质疑我们的假设的人相处最舒适。赤裸裸的党派之争、日益增加的经济和区域分层、媒体的分裂都成为政党宣传的工具——所有这一切使得这种区分似乎变得自然，甚至是不可避免的。我们变得躲在自己的泡沫里，只接受符合我们意见的信息，而不是基于现有证据形成自己的观点。

这不是总是使政治如此沮丧的那部分吗?当我们建议将财务经费投入到孩子们的学龄前教育时，选举官员对赤字感到如此愤怒，但是当为公司削减税收时，为什么不感到愤怒?其它党派做出道德沦丧的事情时，我们紧紧抓住不放，但为什么当我们自己的党派做出相同的事情时，我们却选择原谅?这不仅是不诚实，而是对事实进行选择;这会自取其咎，因为我的妈妈曾经告诉我，“事实总有一天会暴露在你面前。”

在短短8年时间里，我们减少了对外国石油的依赖，使我们的可再生能源增加了一倍，并带领世界达成了一项拯救地球的协议。如果不果断行动，我们的孩子将不会再有时间来辩论气候变化的存在;因为，他们将忙于应对其影响：环境灾难、经济破坏和寻求庇护的气候难民潮。

假装问题不存在不仅背叛了后代，它暴露了这个国家的本质精神。

由于我们的官员、执法人员和外交官的非凡勇气，无论男性还是女性，在过去八年中，没有外国恐怖组织成功实施对我们的家园的袭击，虽然波士顿和奥兰多提醒我们激进组织的危险性，单我们的执法机构比以往更加具有有效性和警惕性。我们已经制服了数万名恐怖分子——包括乌萨马·本·拉登。

我们领导的全球联盟已经牵制了伊拉克和黎凡特伊斯兰国领导人，占领了大约一半的领土。伊黎伊斯兰国将被摧毁，任何威胁美国的人都将被制服。

这就是为什么，在过去八年中，我一直致力于在一个更坚定的法律基础上努力打击恐怖主义，这就是为什么我们能够结束折磨，关闭关塔那摩湾(以作为美军的拘留营而著名)，并改革我们的监管法律，以保护隐私和公民自由。

这就是为什么我反对歧视穆斯林美国人，这就是为什么我们不能退出大规模的全球斗争——我们要扩大民主、人权、妇女权利和lgbt权利，无论我们的努力有多么不完美。因为，这是捍卫美国的一部分。为了反对极端主义以及宗派主义和沙文主义，这是与反威权主义和民族主义侵略的斗争。

这也是我想要表达的最后一点：当我们把民主视为理所当然时，我们的民主就会受到威胁。我们所有人，不论党派，都应该致力于重建我们的民主体制的任务。当投票率是发达民主国家中最低之一时，我们应该使投票更容易，而不是更难。 当我们的组织信任度降低时，我们应该减少金钱在政治中的腐蚀性影响，并坚持透明度和道德的公共服务原则。当国会功能失调时，我们应该吸引我们的地区鼓励政客迎合大众需求，而不是僵化的极端。

所有这一切都取决于我们的参与;我们每个人都有公民的责任，无论权力以何种方式摆动。

我们的宪法是一个了不起的，美丽的礼物。但它真的只是一块羊皮纸。 它自己没有力量。 而是我们，人民，赋予它的权力——我们的参与，和我们做出的选择。 我们是否支持我们的自由，是否尊重和执行法治。美国并不脆弱，但是，我们漫长的自由之旅的成果并不确定。

如果你厌倦了在网络上与陌生人争论，尝试在现实生活中与他们进行谈话吧。 如果有什么需要改变，那就系好你的鞋带，组织一些事情。如果你对你当选的官员感到失望，可以拿一张剪贴板，拿一些签名，自己去办公室，出面，深入追究，坚持不懈。

有时你会赢，有时你会输。假设别人都具有善良的美德可能是一种风险，而且会有一段时间，这个过程会让你失望。但是，对于我们这些有幸成为这项工作的一份子的人来说，仔细想想，我可以告诉你，它可以使每个人得到激励和启发。在这个过程中，你对美国和美国人的信心将得到证实，而我的信仰已经得到证实。

感谢michelle，在过去的25年中，你不仅是我的妻子和我的孩子的母亲，也一直是我最好的朋友。 你所要承担的这个角色并不是你自己要求的，但你却用优雅、坚韧、独特的风格和幽默感成功地完成了角色转变。 你使白宫成为属于每个人的地方。而新一代的年轻人视野会更高，因为他们有你作为榜样。

感谢玛丽亚和萨莎，你们成为了两个了不起的年轻女性，聪明和美丽，但更重要的是，善良和周到，充满激情。你们在聚光灯下承受了多年的负担。在我一生中所做的所有事情中，我最为自豪的是成为你们的父亲。

副总统拜登，是我做出的首个提名，也是最棒的提名。不仅仅是因为你是一个伟大的副总统，也是因为我收获到了你这样一个兄弟。你就像我的家人一样，与你的友谊也是我生活中的一大快乐所在。

对于我那些杰出的工作人员，八年的时间，甚至对其中一些人来说，时间还要更久，我被你们的精力所感染，回想你们每一天的表现，你们的性格、心灵和理想。八年的时间，其中有些人由单身，到结婚生子，开始自己人生路上的新旅程。虽然世事艰难，但你们一直没有被打倒，你们让我自豪。

对于你们所有的人，每位搬到陌生城市的组织者，每一名敲门宣传的志愿者，每一名第一次投票的年轻人，每个为这种变化努力的美国人，你们是最棒的支持者和组织者，我将永远感激在心，因为是你们改变了世界，是你们的功劳。

这也是为什么，我虽然离开仍保持乐观的原因所在，因为我们的工作不仅仅是帮助到很多人，更是激发了很多美国人，尤其是年轻人，相信你们可以有一番作为。

这一代美国人无私、富有创造性，并饱含爱国精神，你们相信公平、公正和包容，你们知道不断保持变化是美国的标志，所以不要害怕，拥抱这些变化，你们会愿意承担这项艰巨的民主工作。你们很快就会超越我们这些人，我相信，未来在你们手中。

我的同胞们，为你们服务是我的荣幸。我不会停止为你们服务，以后我将作为一个公民，与你们站在一起。最后，就像八年前一样，我希望你们能够坚持我们最开始的信念，那些来自奴隶和废奴主义者争取平等的信念，那些移民和自耕农人群的奋斗不息的精神，以及那些对于民主自由权利的争取，这些也是每一位美国人的信念，未来的篇章等待着你们去谱写。

我希望你们能够坚持我们最开始的信念，那些来自奴隶和废奴主义者的想法，那些移民和自耕农人群的精神，以及那些正义的追随者的信仰，这一信念是每个美国人的核心信念，未来的篇章等待着你们去谱写。

是的，我们能行。(yes we can.)

是的，我们做到了。(yes we did.)

是的，我们能行!(yes we can.)

愿上帝保佑你们，愿上帝保佑美国!

英文原文

it’s good to be home. my fellow americans, michelle and i have been so touched by all the well-wishes we’ve received over the past few weeks. but tonight it’s my turn to say thanks. whether we’ve seen eye-to-eye or rarely agreed at all, my conversations with you, the american people – in living rooms and schools; at farms and on factory floors; at diners and on distant outposts – are what have kept me honest, kept me inspired, and kept me going. every day, i learned from you. you made me a better president, and you made me a better man.

i first came to chicago when i was in my early twenties, still trying to figure out who i was; still searching for a purpose to my life. it was in neighborhoods not far from here where i began working with church groups in the shadows of closed steel mills. it was on these streets where i witnessed the power of faith, and the quiet dignity of working people in the face of struggle and loss. this is where i learned that change only happens when ordinary people get involved, get engaged, and come together to demand it.

after eight years as your president, i still believe that. and it’s not just my belief. it’s the beating heart of our american idea – our bold e_periment in self-government.

it’s the conviction that we are all created equal, endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

it’s the insistence that these rights, while self-evident, have never been self-e_ecuting; that we, the people, through the instrument of our democracy, can form a more perfect union.

this is the great gift our founders gave us. the freedom to chase our individual dreams through our sweat, toil, and imagination – and the imperative to strive together as well, to achieve a greater good.

for 240 years, our nation’s call to citizenship has given work and purpose to each new generation. it’s what led patriots to choose republic over tyranny, pioneers to trek west, slaves to brave that makeshift railroad to freedom. it’s what pulled immigrants and refugees across oceans and the rio grande, pushed women to reach for the ballot, powered workers to organize. it’s why gis gave their lives at omaha beach and iwo jima; iraq and afghanistan – and why men and women from selma to stonewall were prepared to give theirs as well.

so that’s what we mean when we say america is e_ceptional. not that our nation has been flawless from the start, but that we have shown the capacity to change, and make life better for those who follow.

yes, our progress has been uneven. the work of democracy has always been hard, contentious and sometimes bloody. for every two steps forward, it often feels we take one step back. but the long sweep of america has been defined by forward motion, a constant widening of our founding creed to embrace all, and not just some.

if i had told you eight years ago that america would reverse a great recession, reboot our auto industry, and unleash the longest stretch of job creation in our history…if i had told you that we would open up a new chapter with the cuban people, shut down iran’s nuclear weapons program without firing a shot, and take out the mastermind of 9/11…if i had told you that we would win marriage equality, and secure the right to health insurance for another 20 million of our fellow citizens – you might have said our sights were set a little too high.

but that’s what we did. that’s what you did. you were the change. you answered people’s hopes, and because of you, by almost every measure, america is a better, stronger place than it was when we started.

in ten days, the world will witness a hallmark of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power from one freely-elected president to the ne_t. i committed to president-elect trump that my administration would ensure the smoothest possible transition, just as president bush did for me. because it’s up to all of us to make sure our government can help us meet the many challenges we still face.

we have what we need to do so. after all, we remain the wealthiest, most powerful, and most respected nation on earth. our youth and drive, our diversity and openness, our boundless capacity for risk and reinvention mean that the future should be ours.

but that potential will be realized only if our democracy works. only if our politics reflects the decency of the our people. only if all of us, regardless of our party affiliation or particular interest, help restore the sense of common purpose that we so badly need right now.

that’s what i want to focus on tonight – the state of our democracy.

understand, democracy does not require uniformity. our founders quarreled and compromised, and e_pected us to do the same. but they knew that democracy does require a basic sense of solidarity – the idea that for all our outward differences, we are all in this together; that we rise or fall as one.

there have been moments throughout our history that threatened to rupture that solidarity. the beginning of this century has been one of those times. a shrinking world, growing inequality; demographic change and the specter of terrorism – these forces haven’t just tested our security and prosperity, but our democracy as well. and how we meet these challenges to our democracy will determine our ability to educate our kids, and create good jobs, and protect our homeland.

in other words, it will determine our future.

our democracy won’t work without a sense that everyone has economic opportunity. today, the economy is growing again; wages, incomes, home values, and retirement accounts are rising again; poverty is falling again. the wealthy are paying a fairer share of ta_es even as the stock market shatters records. the unemployment rate is near a ten-year low. the uninsured rate has never, ever been lower. health care costs are rising at the slowest rate in fifty years. and if anyone can put together a plan that is demonstrably better than the improvements we’ve made to our health care system – that covers as many people at less cost – i will publicly support it.

that, after all, is why we serve – to make people’s lives better, not worse.

but for all the real progress we’ve made, we know it’s not enough. our economy doesn’t work as well or grow as fast when a few prosper at the e_pense of a growing middle class. but stark inequality is also corrosive to our democratic principles. while the top one percent has amassed a bigger share of wealth and income, too many families, in inner cities and rural counties, have been left behind – the laid-off factory worker; the waitress and health care worker who struggle to pay the bills – convinced that the game is fi_ed against them, that their government only serves the interests of the powerful – a recipe for more cynicism and polarization in our politics.

there are no quick fi_es to this long-term trend. i agree that our trade should be fair and not just free. but the ne_t wave of economic dislocation won’t come from overseas. it will come from the relentless pace of automation that makes many good, middle-class jobs obsolete.

and so we must forge a new social compact – to guarantee all our kids the education they need; to give workers the power to unionize for better wages; to update the social safety net to reflect the way we live now and make more reforms to the ta_ code so corporations and individuals who reap the most from the new economy don’t avoid their obligations to the country that’s made their success possible. we can argue about how to best achieve these goals. but we can’t be complacent about the goals themselves. for if we don’t create opportunity for all people, the disaffection and division that has stalled our progress will only sharpen in years to come.

there’s a second threat to our democracy – one as old as our nation itself. after my election, there was talk of a post-racial america. such a vision, however well-intended, was never realistic. for race remains a potent and often divisive force in our society. i’ve lived long enough to know that race relations are better than they were ten, or twenty, or thirty years ago – you can see it not just in statistics, but in the attitudes of young americans across the political spectrum.

but we’re not where we need to be. all of us have more work to do. after all, if every economic issue is framed as a struggle between a hardworking white middle class and undeserving minorities, then workers of all shades will be left fighting for scraps while the wealthy withdraw further into their private enclaves. if we decline to invest in the children of immigrants, just because they don’t look like us, we diminish the prospects of our own children – because those brown kids will represent a larger share of america’s workforce. and our economy doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game. last year, incomes rose for all races, all age groups, for men and for women.

going forward, we must uphold laws against discrimination – in hiring, in housing, in education and the criminal justice system. that’s what our constitution and highest ideals require. but laws alone won’t be enough. hearts must change. if our democracy is to work in this increasingly diverse nation, each one of us must try to heed the advice of one of the great characters in american fiction, atticus finch, who said “you never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view…until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.”

for blacks and other minorities, it means tying our own struggles for justice to the challenges that a lot of people in this country face – the refugee, the immigrant, the rural poor, the transgender american, and also the middle-aged white man who from the outside may seem like he’s got all the advantages, but who’s seen his world upended by economic, cultural, and technological change.

for white americans, it means acknowledging that the effects of slavery and jim crow didn’t suddenly vanish in the ‘60s; that when minority groups voice discontent, they’re not just engaging in reverse racism or practicing political correctness; that when they wage peaceful protest, they’re not demanding special treatment, but the equal treatment our founders promised.

for native-born americans, it means reminding ourselves that the stereotypes about immigrants today were said, almost word for word, about the irish, italians, and poles. america wasn’t weakened by the presence of these newcomers; they embraced this nation’s creed, and it was strengthened.

so regardless of the station we occupy; we have to try harder; to start with the premise that each of our fellow citizens loves this country just as much as we do; that they value hard work and family like we do; that their children are just as curious and hopeful and worthy of love as our own.

none of this is easy. for too many of us, it’s become safer to retreat into our own bubbles, whether in our neighborhoods or college campuses or places of worship or our social media feeds, surrounded by people who look like us and share the same political outlook and never challenge our assumptions. the rise of naked partisanship, increasing economic and regional stratification, the splintering of our media into a channel for every taste – all this makes this great sorting seem natural, even inevitable. and increasingly, we become so secure in our bubbles that we accept only information, whether true or not, that fits our opinions, instead of basing our opinions on the evidence that’s out there.

this trend represents a third threat to our democracy. politics is a battle of ideas; in the course of a healthy debate, we’ll prioritize different goals, and the different means of reaching them. but without some common baseline of facts; without a willingness to admit new information, and concede that your opponent is making a fair point, and that science and reason matter, we’ll keep talking past each other, making common ground and compromise impossible.

isn’t that part of what makes politics so dispiriting? how can elected officials rage about deficits when we propose to spend money on preschool for kids, but not when we’re cutting ta_es for corporations? how do we e_cuse ethical lapses in our own party, but pounce when the other party does the same thing? it’s not just dishonest, this selective sorting of the facts; it’s self-defeating. because as my mother used to tell me, reality has a way of catching up with you.

take the challenge of climate change. in just eight years, we’ve halved our dependence on foreign oil, doubled our renewable energy, and led the world to an agreement that has the promise to save this planet. but without bolder action, our children won’t have time to debate the e_istence of climate change; they’ll be busy dealing with its effects: environmental disasters, economic disruptions, and waves of climate refugees seeking sanctuary.

now, we can and should argue about the best approach to the problem. but to simply deny the problem not only betrays future generations; it betrays the essential spirit of innovation and practical problem-solving that guided our founders.

it’s that spirit, born of the enlightenment, that made us an economic powerhouse – the spirit that took flight at kitty hawk and cape canaveral; the spirit that that cures disease and put a computer in every pocket.

it’s that spirit – a faith in reason, and enterprise, and the primacy of right over might, that allowed us to resist the lure of fascism and tyranny during the great depression, and build a post-world war ii order with other democracies, an order based not just on military power or national affiliations but on principles – the rule of law, human rights, freedoms of religion, speech, assembly, and an independent press.

that order is now being challenged – first by violent fanatics who claim to speak for islam; more recently by autocrats in foreign capitals who see free markets, open democracies, and civil society itself as a threat to their power. the peril each poses to our democracy is more far-reaching than a car bomb or a missile. it represents the fear of change; the fear of people who look or speak or pray differently; a contempt for the rule of law that holds leaders accountable; an intolerance of dissent and free thought; a belief that the sword or the gun or the bomb or propaganda machine is the ultimate arbiter of what’s true and what’s right.

because of the e_traordinary courage of our men and women in uniform, and the intelligence officers, law enforcement, and diplomats who support them, no foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and e_ecuted an attack on our homeland these past eight years; and although boston and orlando remind us of how dangerous radicalization can be, our law enforcement agencies are more effective and vigilant than ever. we’ve taken out tens of thousands of terrorists – including osama bin laden. the global coalition we’re leading against isil has taken out their leaders, and taken away about half their territory. isil will be destroyed, and no one who threatens america will ever be safe. to all who serve, it has been the honor of my lifetime to be your commander-in-chief.

but protecting our way of life requires more than our military. democracy can buckle when we give in to fear. so just as we, as citizens, must remain vigilant against e_ternal aggression, we must guard against a weakening of the values that make us who we are. that’s why, for the past eight years, i’ve worked to put the fight against terrorism on a firm legal footing. that’s why we’ve ended torture, worked to close gitmo, and reform our laws governing surveillance to protect privacy and civil liberties. that’s why i reject discrimination against muslim americans. that’s why we cannot withdraw from global fights – to e_pand democracy, and human rights, women’s rights, and lgbt rights – no matter how imperfect our efforts, no matter how e_pedient ignoring such values may seem. for the fight against e_tremism and intolerance and sectarianism are of a piece with the fight against authoritarianism and nationalist aggression. if the scope of freedom and respect for the rule of law shrinks around the world, the likelihood of war within and between nations increases, and our own freedoms will eventually be threatened.

so let’s be vigilant, but not afraid. isil will try to kill innocent people. but they cannot defeat america unless we betray our constitution and our principles in the fight. rivals like russia or china cannot match our influence around the world – unless we give up what we stand for, and turn ourselves into just another big country that bullies smaller neighbors.

which brings me to my final point – our democracy is threatened whenever we take it for granted. all of us, regardless of party, should throw ourselves into the task of rebuilding our democratic institutions. when voting rates are some of the lowest among advanced democracies, we should make it easier, not harder, to vote. when trust in our institutions is low, we should reduce the corrosive influence of money in our politics, and insist on the principles of transparency and ethics in public service. when congress is dysfunctional, we should draw our districts to encourage politicians to cater to common sense and not rigid e_tremes.

and all of this depends on our participation; on each of us accepting the responsibility of citizenship, regardless of which way the pendulum of power swings.

our constitution is a remarkable, beautiful gift. but it’s really just a piece of parchment. it has no power on its own. we, the people, give it power – with our participation, and the choices we make. whether or not we stand up for our freedoms. whether or not we respect and enforce the rule of law. america is no fragile thing. but the gains of our long journey to freedom are not assured.

in his own farewell address, george washington wrote that self-government is the underpinning of our safety, prosperity, and liberty, but “from different causes and from different quarters much pains will be taken…to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth;” that we should preserve it with “jealous an_iety;” that we should reject “the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest or to enfeeble the sacred ties” that make us one.

we weaken those ties when we allow our political dialogue to become so corrosive that people of good character are turned off from public service; so coarse with rancor that americans with whom we disagree are not just misguided, but somehow malevolent. we weaken those ties when we define some of us as more american than others; when we write off the whole system as inevitably corrupt, and blame the leaders we elect without e_amining our own role in electing them.

it falls to each of us to be those an_ious, jealous guardians of our democracy; to embrace the joyous task we’ve been given to continually try to improve this great nation of ours. because for all our outward differences, we all share the same proud title: citizen.

ultimately, that’s what our democracy demands. it needs you. not just when there’s an election, not just when your own narrow interest is at stake, but over the full span of a lifetime. if you’re tired of arguing with strangers on the internet, try to talk with one in real life. if something needs fi_ing, lace up your shoes and do some organizing. if you’re disappointed by your elected officials, grab a clipboard, get some signatures, and run for office yourself. show up. dive in. persevere. sometimes you’ll win. sometimes you’ll lose. presuming a reservoir of goodness in others can be a risk, and there will be times when the process disappoints you. but for those of us fortunate enough to have been a part of this work, to see it up close, let me tell you, it can energize and inspire. and more often than not, your faith in america – and in americans – will be confirmed.

mine sure has been. over the course of these eight years, i’ve seen the hopeful faces of young graduates and our newest military officers. i’ve mourned with grieving families searching for answers, and found grace in charleston church. i’ve seen our scientists help a paralyzed man regain his sense of touch, and our wounded warriors walk again. i’ve seen our doctors and volunteers rebuild after earthquakes and stop pandemics in their tracks. i’ve seen the youngest of children remind us of our obligations to care for refugees, to work in peace, and above all to look out for each other.

that faith i placed all those years ago, not far from here, in the power of ordinary americans to bring about change – that faith has been rewarded in ways i couldn’t possibly have imagined. i hope yours has, too. some of you here tonight or watching at home were there with us in 2004, in 2008, in 2022 – and maybe you still can’t believe we pulled this whole thing off.

you’re not the only ones. michelle – for the past twenty-five years, you’ve been not only my wife and mother of my children, but my best friend. you took on a role you didn’t ask for and made it your own with grace and grit and style and good humor. you made the white house a place that belongs to everybody. and a new generation sets its sights higher because it has you as a role model. you’ve made me proud. you’ve made the country proud.

malia and sasha, under the strangest of circumstances, you have become two amazing young women, smart and beautiful, but more importantly, kind and thoughtful and full of passion. you wore the burden of years in the spotlight so easily. of all that i’ve done in my life, i’m most proud to be your dad.

to joe biden, the scrappy kid from scranton who became delaware’s favorite son: you were the first choice i made as a nominee, and the best. not just because you have been a great vice president, but because in the bargain, i gained a brother. we love you and jill like family, and your friendship has been one of the great joys of our life.

to my remarkable staff: for eight years – and for some of you, a whole lot more – i’ve drawn from your energy, and tried to reflect back what you displayed every day: heart, and character, and idealism. i’ve watched you grow up, get married, have kids, and start incredible new journeys of your own. even when times got tough and frustrating, you never let washington get the better of you. the only thing that makes me prouder than all the good we’ve done is the thought of all the remarkable things you’ll achieve from here.

and to all of you out there – every organizer who moved to an unfamiliar town and kind family who welcomed them in, every volunteer who knocked on doors, every young person who cast a ballot for the first time, every american who lived and breathed the hard work of change – you are the best supporters and organizers anyone could hope for, and i will forever be grateful. because yes, you changed the world.

that’s why i leave this stage tonight even more optimistic about this country than i was when we started. because i know our work has not only helped so many americans; it has inspired so many americans – especially so many young people out there – to believe you can make a difference; to hitch your wagon to something bigger than yourselves. this generation coming up – unselfish, altruistic, creative, patriotic – i’ve seen you in every corner of the country. you believe in a fair, just, inclusive america; you know that constant change has been america’s hallmark, something not to fear but to embrace, and you are willing to carry this hard work of democracy forward. you’ll soon outnumber any of us, and i believe as a result that the future is in good hands.

my fellow americans, it has been the honor of my life to serve you. i won’t stop; in fact, i will be right there with you, as a citizen, for all my days that remain. for now, whether you’re young or young at heart, i do have one final ask of you as your president – the same thing i asked when you took a chance on me eight years ago.

i am asking you to believe. not in my ability to bring about change – but in yours.

i am asking you to hold fast to that faith written into our founding documents; that idea whispered by slaves and abolitionists; that spirit sung by immigrants and homesteaders and those who marched for justice; that creed reaffirmed by those who planted flags from foreign battlefields to the surface of the moon; a creed at the core of every american whose story is not yet written:

yes we can.

yes we did.

yes we can.

thank you. god bless you. and may god continue to bless the united states of america.

第4篇 匠心筑梦，文化强国演讲稿（中英文版）

中文部分演讲：

尊敬的老师、亲爱的同学们：

大家好！

今天我班国旗下演讲的题目为：匠心筑梦，文化强国。

在悠久的历史长河中，中华传统文化犹如一颗璀璨的明珠。上下五千年，中国一路风尘仆仆走来，脚下踩的是深厚的文化底蕴。从仁义礼智信到琴棋书画，中华文化以强大的生命力哺育、滋养着一代又一代的英才，为世界的发展做出了宝贵的贡献。弘扬传统文化，凝聚民族之魂，是我们每个中华儿女肩头的责任。

天津自古以来就是中国的历史文化名城，也是中国北方文化艺术的发祥地之一。多少古老的文化艺术、民间技艺，在这里滋长、传扬。产生于宋元时期的杨柳青年画仍古朴曲雅，受到千家万户的喜爱；民国年间独领风骚的“风筝魏”已凭借精巧的设计驰名国际；清末兴起的“泥人张”彩塑如今更加形神毕肖，蜚声四海……更有天津时调、天津快板、京韵大鼓等丰富多彩的艺术形式，仍在舞台上熠熠生辉。是那些传统文艺和民间技艺的传承人们，他们全情热爱，全神贯注，用心雕琢，用生命传唱。一生耕耘，一代代口手相传，将其发扬光大。

耐心专注、咫尺匠心，诠释极致追求；锲而不舍、身体力行，传承匠人精神。他们不一定是声名显赫的伟人，但必须是我们心中的榜样。

“文化兴则国运兴，文化强则民族强。”同学们，我们正值青春年少，前路等待着我们上下求索，五千年文明的华章等待着我们续写辉煌。在这个属于播种的年纪里，我们应饱读诗书，用传统文化中璀璨的精华充实自己的思想；同时，我们更应该认识到，传统文化不止在于书本，更在生活的每一个角落。了解传统民俗，继承中华美德，珍惜、呵护那些正在消亡的传统工艺……人人成为传统文化的守护者，将传统文化的种子播撒，使其在新时代焕发出新的光彩。

同学少年，风华正茂，让我们把大国工匠作为自己的榜样，接过文化传承的火把，为祖国文化的发展贡献自己的一份力量吧！因为，唯文化，得强民、强国、强世界。文化强国，薪火相传！

第5篇 小学生演讲稿中英文版

珍惜时间

making good use of time

四—五年级

goodmorning/afternoon,everybody!a famous american poet says , 'life is short, study is long.' everyone should work hard and study well. never waste any time. now we are young, we have so many things to do. youth time is like a happy bird. if it flew away, it would never return. nothing is more important than time.

today some students spend too much time enjoying their lives such as eating, clothing, traveling and so on. others spend too much time reading some useless books. a lot of time has been wasted. they have no idea that waste of time means wasting of one’s life.

while we are young and full of energy, let’s  study hard.

my speech is over ! thank you.

大家早上/下午好。美国一位著名的诗人说，'生命不息，学习不止。'每个人都应该努力工作，好好学习。不要浪费时间。现在我们正年轻，我们还有很多事情可以去做。青春是像一只快乐的小鸟。如果它飞走了，它就再也不会回来。没有什么比时间更珍贵。

今天，一些学生花太多的时间享受他们的生活，如饮食，服装，旅游等。而一些人读了很多没用的书。已经浪费了很多时间。他们不知道浪费时间就是浪费自己的生命。

我们年轻，充满活力，让我们努力学习。我的演讲到此结束！谢谢！

第6篇 奥巴马开学演讲稿中英文版

奥巴马开学演讲稿中文全文：

我们为什么要上学?

嗨，大家好!你们今天过得怎么样?我现在和弗吉尼亚州阿林顿郡韦克菲尔德高中的学生们在一起，全国各地也有从幼儿园到高三的众多学生们通过电视关注这里，我很高兴你们能共同分享这一时刻。

我知道，对你们中的许多人来说，今天是开学的第一天，你们中的有一些刚刚进入幼儿园或升上初高中，对你们来说，这是在新学校的第一天，因此，假如你们感到有些紧张，那也是很正常的。我想也会有许多毕业班的学生们正自信满满地准备最后一年的冲刺。不过，我想无论你有多大、在读哪个年级，许多人都打心底里希望现在还在放暑假，以及今天不用那么早起床。

我可以理解这份心情。小时候，我们家在印度尼西亚住过几年，而我妈妈没钱送我去其他美国孩子们上学的地方去读书，因此她决定自己给我上课——时间是每周一到周五的凌晨4点半。

显然，我不怎么喜欢那么早就爬起来，很多时候，我就这么在厨房的桌子前睡着了。每当我埋怨的时候，我妈总会用同一副表情看着我说：“小鬼，你以为教你我就很轻松?” 所以，我可以理解你们中的许多人对于开学还需要时间来调整和适应，但今天我站在这里，是为了和你们谈一些重要的事情。我要和你们谈一谈你们每个人的教育，以及在新的学年里，你们应当做些什么。

我做过许多关于教育的讲话，也常常用到“责任”这个词。

我谈到过教师们有责任激励和启迪你们，督促你们学习。

我谈到过家长们有责任看管你们认真学习、完成作业，不要成天只会看电视或打游戏机。我也很多次谈到过政府有责任设定高标准严要求、协助老师和校长们的工作，改变在有些学校里学生得不到应有的学习机会的现状。

但哪怕这一切都达到最好，哪怕我们有最尽职的教师、最好的家长、和最优秀的学校，假如你们不去履行自己的责任的话，那么这一切努力都会白费。——除非你每天准时去上学、除非你认真地听老师讲课、除非你把父母、长辈和其他大人们说的话放在心上、除非你肯付出成功所必需的努力，否则这一切都会失去意义。

而这就是我今天讲话的主题：对于自己的教育，你们中每一个人的责任。首先，我想谈谈你们对于自己有什么责任。

你们中的每一个人都会有自己擅长的东西，每一个人都是有用之材，而发现自己的才能是什么，就是你们要对自己担起的责任。教育给你们提供了发现自己才能的机会。

或许你能写出优美的文字——甚至有一天能让那些文字出现在书籍和报刊上——但假如不在英语课上经常练习写作，你不会发现自己有这样的天赋;或许你能成为一个发明家、创造家——甚至设计出像今天的iphone一样流行的产品，或研制出新的药物与疫苗——但假如不在自然科学课程上做上几次实验，你不会知道自己有这样的天赋;或许你能成为一名议员或最高法院法官，但假如你不去加入什么学生会或参加几次辩论赛，你也不会发现自己的才能。

而且，我可以向你保证，不管你将来想要做什么，你都需要相应的教育。——你想当名医生、当名教师或当名警官?你想成为护士、成为建筑设计师、律师或军人?无论你选择哪一种职业，良好的教育都必不可少，这世上不存在不把书念完就能拿到好工作的美梦，任何工作，都需要你的汗水、训练与学习。

不仅仅对于你们个人的未来有重要意义，你们的教育如何也会对这个国家、乃至世界的未来产生重要影响。今天你们在学校中学习的内容，将会决定我们整个国家在未来迎接重大挑战时的表现。

你们需要在数理科学课程上学习的知识和技能，去治疗癌症、艾滋那样的疾病，和解决我们面临的能源问题与环境问题;你们需要在历史社科课程上培养出的观察力与判断力，来减轻和消除无家可归与贫困、犯罪问题和各种歧视，让这个国家变得更加公平和自由;你们需要在各类课程中逐渐累积和发展出来的创新意识和思维，去创业和建立新的公司与企业，来制造就业机会和推动经济的增长。

我们需要你们中的每一个人都培养和发展自己的天赋、技能和才智，来解决我们所面对的最困难的问题。假如你不这么做——假如你放弃学习——那么你不仅是放弃了自己，也是放弃了你的国家。

当然，我明白，读好书并不总是件容易的事。我知道你们中的许多人在生活中面临着各种各样的问题，很难把精力集中在专心读书之上。

我知道你们的感受。我父亲在我两岁时就离开了家庭，是母亲一人将我们拉扯大，有时她付不起帐单，有时我们得不到其他孩子们都有的东西，有时我会想，假如父亲在该多好，有时我会感到孤独无助，与周围的环境格格不入。

因此我并不总是能专心学习，我做过许多自己觉得丢脸的事情，也惹出过许多不该惹的麻烦，我的生活岌岌可危，随时可能急转直下。

但我很幸运。我在许多事上都得到了重来的机会，我得到了去大学读法学院、实现自己梦想的机会。我的妻子——现在得叫她第一夫人米歇尔?奥巴马了——也有着相似的人生故事，她的父母都没读过大学，也没有什么财产，但他们和她都辛勤工作，好让她有机会去这个国家最优秀的学校读书。

你们中有些人可能没有这些有利条件，或许你的生活中没有能为你提供帮助和支持的长辈，或许你的某个家长没有工作、经济拮据，或许你住的社区不那么安全，或许你认识一些会对你产生不良影响的朋友，等等。

但归根结底，你的生活状况——你的长相、出身、经济条件、家庭氛围——都不是疏忽学业和态度恶劣的借口，这些不是你去跟老师顶嘴、逃课、或是辍学的借口，这些不是你不好好读书的借口。

你的未来，并不取决于你现在的生活有多好或多坏。没有人为你编排好你的命运，在美国，你的命运由你自己书写，你的未来由你自己掌握。

而在这片土地上的每个地方，千千万万和你一样的年轻人正是这样在书写着自己的命运。例如德克萨斯州罗马市的贾斯敏?佩雷兹(jazmin perez)。刚进学校时，她根本不会说英语，她住的地方几乎没人上过大学，她的父母也没有受过高等教育，但她努力学习，取得了优异的成绩，靠奖学金进入了布朗大学，如今正在攻读公共卫生专业的博士学位。

我还想起了加利福尼亚州洛斯拉图斯市的安多尼?舒尔兹(andoni schultz)，他从三岁起就开始与脑癌病魔做斗争，他熬过了一次次治疗与手术——其中一次影响了他的记忆，因此他得花出比常人多几百个小时的时间来完成学业，但他从不曾落下自己的功课。这个秋天，他要开始在大学读书了。

又比如在我的家乡，伊利诺斯州芝加哥市，身为孤儿的香特尔?史蒂夫(shantell steve)换过多次收养家庭，从小在治安很差的地区长大，但她努力争取到了在当地保健站工作的机会、发起了一个让青少年远离犯罪团伙的项目，很快，她也将以优异的成绩从中学毕业，去大学深造。

贾斯敏、安多尼和香特尔与你们并没有什么不同。和你们一样，他们也在生活中遭遇各种各样的困难与问题，但他们拒绝放弃，他们选择为自己的教育担起责任、给自己定下奋斗的目标。我希望你们中的每一个人，都能做得到这些。

因此，在今天，我号召你们每一个人都为自己的教育定下一个目标——并在之后，尽自己的一切努力去实现它。你的目标可以很简单，像是完成作业、认真听讲或每天阅读——或许你打算参加一些课外活动，或在社区做些志愿工作;或许你决定为那些因为长相或出身等等原因而受嘲弄或欺负的孩子做主、维护他们的权益，因为你和我一样，认为每个孩子都应该能有一个安全的学习环境;或许你认为该学着更好的照顾自己，来为将来的学习做准备……当然，除此之外，我希望你们都多多洗手、感到身体不舒服的时候要多在家休息，免得大家在秋冬感冒高发季节都得流感。

不管你决定做什么，我都希望你能坚持到底，希望你能真的下定决心。 我知道有些时候，电视上播放的节目会让你产生这样那样的错觉，似乎你不需要付出多大的努力就能腰缠万贯、功成名就——你会认为只要会唱rap、会打篮球或参加个什么真人秀节目就能坐享其成，但现实是，你几乎没有可能走上其中任何一条道路。

因为，成功是件难事。你不可能对要读的每门课程都兴趣盎然，你不可能和每名带课教师都相处顺利，你也不可能每次都遇上看起来和现实生活有关的作业。而且，并不是每件事，你都能在头一次尝试时获得成功。

但那没有关系。因为在这个世界上，最最成功的人们往往也经历过最多的失败。j.k.罗琳的第一本《哈利·波特》被出版商拒绝了十二次才最终出版;迈克尔·乔丹上高中时被学校的篮球队刷了下来，在他的职业生涯里，他输了几百场比赛、投失过几千次射篮，知道他是怎么说的吗?“我一生不停地失败、失败再失败，这就是我现在成功的原因。” 他们的成功，源于他们明白人不能让失败左右自己——而是要从中吸取经验。从失败中，你可以明白下一次自己可以做出怎样的改变;假如你惹了什么麻烦，那并不说明你就是个捣蛋贵，而是在提醒你，在将来要对自己有更严格的要求;假如你考了个低分，那并不说明你就比别人笨，而是在告诉你，自己得在学习上花更多的时间。

没有哪一个人一生出来就擅长做什么事情的，只有努力才能培养出技能。任何人都不是在第一次接触一项体育运动时就成为校队的代表，任何人都不是在第一次唱一首歌时就找准每一个音，一切都需要熟能生巧。对于学业也是一样，你或许要反复运算才能解出一道数学题的正确答案，你或许需要读一段文字好几遍才能理解它的意思，你或许得把论文改上好几次才能符合提交的标准。这都是很正常的。

不要害怕提问。不要不敢向他人求助。——我每天都在这么做。求助并不是软弱的表现，恰恰相反，它说明你有勇气承认自己的不足、并愿意去学习新的知识。所以，有不懂时，就向大人们求助吧——找个你信得过的对象，例如父母、长辈、老师、教练或辅导员——让他们帮助你向目标前进。

你要记住，哪怕你表现不好、哪怕你失去信心、哪怕你觉得身边的人都已经放弃了你——永远不要自己放弃自己。因为当你放弃自己的时候，你也放弃了自己的国家。

美国不是一个人们遭遇困难就轻易放弃的国度，在这个国家，人们坚持到底、人们加倍努力，为了他们所热爱的国度，每一个人都尽着自己最大的努力，不会给自己留任何余地。250年前，有一群和你们一样的学生，他们之后奋起努力、用一场革命最终造就了这个国家;75年前，有一群和你们一样的学生，他们之后战胜了大萧条、赢得了二战;就在20__年前，和你们一样的学生们，他们后来创立了google、twitter和facebook，改变了我们人与人之间沟通的方式。

因此，今天我想要问你们，你们会做出什么样的贡献?你们将解决什么样的难题?你们能发现什么样的事物?二十、五十或百年之后，假如那时的美国总统也来做一次开学演讲的话，他会怎样描述你们对这个国家所做的一切?

你们的家长、你们的老师和我，每一个人都在尽最大的努力，确保你们都能得到应有的教育来回答这些问题。例如我正在努力为你们提供更安全的教室、更多的书籍、更先进的设施与计算机。但你们也要担起自己的责任。因此我要求你们在今年能够认真起来，我要求你们尽心地去做自己着手的每一件事，我要求你们每一个人都有所成就。请不要让我们失望——不要让你的家人、你的国家和你自己失望。你们要成为我们骄傲，我知道，你们一定可以做到。

谢谢大家，上帝保佑你们，上帝保佑美国。

美国总统奥巴马9月8日开学演讲英文全文

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 e_tra 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 e_pected 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 _bo_.

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 ne_t 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 e_cuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude in school. that's no e_cuse for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping out of school. there is no e_cuse 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, te_as. 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 e_tra 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 e_pect 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 e_tracurricular 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 ne_t 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 fi_ 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 e_pect all of you to get serious this year. i e_pect you to put your best effort into everything you do. i e_pect 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.

奥巴马人物评价：

正面评价

挪威诺贝尔委员会将20__年诺贝尔和平奖授予奥巴马，

以表彰他在促进国际外交和各国人民合作所作出的非凡努力。

对于奥巴马获诺贝尔和平奖，多数观点持肯定态度，认为他作为世界上最强大军事力量的领导者以及他所倡导的无核化理念，是全球和平的希望，还指出他是唯一一位向穆斯林国家表示友善的美国总统。[13]

负面评价

20__年11月18日-20日，cnn和全球市场调查机构orc联合对全美843个成年人进行了电话抽样调查。结果显示，只有40%的人认为贝拉克·侯赛因·奥巴马能有效管理联邦政府，该数字比20__年6月的调查下降了12个百分点。53%的人认为奥巴马不诚实、不值得信赖，这是cnn民调中首次发现超半数美国人持有这样的看法。此外，56%的受访者说，奥巴马不是自己崇拜的人。

美国《绅士季刊》总共列出了25位最无影响力名人，奥巴马位列第17位，因为他“什么也没做”。[44]

《纽约邮报》调侃称，奥巴马是“陷入僵局的总司令”。[44]

俄罗斯《今日报》称，奥巴马以“失败的政治家”和“无法坚持自己立场”而入选。专家们认为，奥巴马承诺的太多，讲得很华丽，实际上却什么也没有做。因为不成功的医保改革、移民政策及不善于维护自己在国际政治中的地位，尤其是在处理叙利亚问题时的失误，使得奥巴马的执政路变得相对坎坷。[27]

美国前总统克林顿则称奥巴马是美国历史上最糟糕的总统。

《时代》：民调显示奥巴马成战后最差总统。[45]

美国昆尼皮亚克大学民调研究所2日发布一项民调结果，贝拉克·奥巴马以33%的得票率被评为第二次世界大战以来美国“最糟糕的总统”[46] 。

20__年8月28日，奥巴马在新闻发布会上谈及俄乌以及打击“伊拉克和沙姆伊斯兰国”(isis)等问题。舆论不仅对他的观点有所不满，甚至认为他的西装十分滑稽。人们的注意力都集中在总统的浅黄色西装上(如图)，而不是他对乌克兰和叙利亚问题的看法。美国媒体甚至调侃称，称其穿傻帽西装。[47]

美国反战组织“粉色代码”(codepink)和“立即行动起来结束战争和种族主义联盟”(answer coalition)20__年9月25日在白宫门口举行游行示威，抗议总统奥巴马对叙利亚和伊拉克发动空袭行动，批评美国中东政策是“伊斯兰国”发展壮大的原因之一，也是问题所在。

今天天是个值得纪念的日子，是一年一度的父亲节!

母爱深似海，父爱重如山。人们在庆祝母亲节的同时，并没有忘记父亲的功绩。年就开始有人建议确定父亲节。年月，人们庆祝了第一个父亲节。当时，凡是父亲已故的人都佩戴一朵白玫瑰，父亲在世的人则佩戴红玫瑰。这种习俗一直流传至今。

据说，选定月过父亲节是因为月的阳光是一年之中最炽热的，象征了父亲给予子女的那火热的爱。父爱如山，高大而巍峨，让我望而生怯不敢攀登;父爱如天，粗旷而深远，让我仰而心怜不敢长啸;父爱是深邃的伟大的纯洁而不可回报的，然而父爱又是苦涩的，难懂的忧郁而不可企及的。父亲像是一棵树，总是不言不语，却让他枝叶繁茂的坚实臂膀为树下的我们遮风挡雨制造荫凉。岁月如指间的流水一样滑过，不觉间我们已长大，而树却渐渐老去，甚至新发的树叶都不再充满生机。每年月的第三个星期日是父亲的节日，让我们由衷的说一声：爸爸，我爱你!父亲节快乐!

现在，会考和期末考试将至，我建议我们要抓紧时间，努力学习，用优异的成绩作为送给父亲的礼物，去回报伟大的父爱，我相信那时父亲的笑容是最美的!同学们，加油吧!!!
