奥巴马演讲中英文对照版Ladies and Gentlemen:女士们,先生们:Today is the 37th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that recognized the constitutional right toprivacy and dignity in a woman’s most personal decisions about her health, her family, and her future.今天是作出保障妇女在其个人健康,家庭以及未来的自由决定的宪法权利上所公认的Roe v. Wade法令37周年纪念日。

而且也更加温和、委婉地纪念; 在Roe法令37年期间,我们见证了一代年轻人在他们拥有控制自己生殖决策权的环境中长大。

事实上,今天的年轻人可能甚至连Roe以前的时代都不太记得。

但我们也不能忘记那些来之前我们的勇敢女性以及和他们一起奋战的勇敢男女,他们有勇气要求自己最私密的决定被视作一项基本的人权。

这也是我们今天聚集在此的原因--要重申这个基本真理,并再次致力于保护妇女在全世界的生殖权利以及机会,不管她们的收入或背景如何。

This moment should not be about politics, it should be about, as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg reminded us, “the decision whether and when to bear a child” being in the hands of women themselves.这一刻不应是关于政治,而是,正如法官鲁丝·巴德·金斯伯格曾提醒过的,“是否及何时有孩子”这项决定应在女性自己手中。

而且,虽然保护妇女权利和自主的斗争不会于今天就结束。

A More Perfect UnionRemarks of Senator Barack ObamaPhiladelphia, PA | March 18, 2008为了更完美的联邦巴拉克·奥巴马2008年3月18日在美国宾夕法尼亚州费城的演讲海星译"We the people, in order to form a more perfect union."“我们[美利坚合众国的]人民,为缔造一个更完美的联邦。

”Two hundred and twenty one years ago, in a hall that still stands across the street, a group of men gathered and, with these simple words, launched America's improbable experiment in democracy. Farmers and scholars; statesmen and patriots who had traveled across an ocean to escape tyranny and persecution finally made real their declaration of independence at a Philadelphia convention that lasted through the spring of 1787.221年前,一群人聚集在至今仍屹立在这条街上的市政厅里,用上述这样简洁的言语,发起了美利坚不可思议的民主实验。

农场主和学者,政治家与爱国者们为逃脱政治专制和宗教迫害,横渡大洋,最终在费城会议上发表了他们的独立宣言。

——这一会议一直延续了1787年的春天。

The document they produced was eventually signed but ultimately unfinished. It was stained by this nation's original sin of slavery, a question that divided the colonies and brought the convention to a stalemate until the founders chose to allow the slave trade to continue for at least twenty more years, and to leave any final resolution to future generations.他们讨论出的文件得以签署通过但尚未最终完成。

奥巴马胜选演讲全文(中英文版)

奥巴马今日赢得大选,随后在芝加哥竞选总部发表胜选演讲,以下是华尔街日报中文网译制的全文:非常感谢你们。

今夜,在当年的殖民地赢得了决定自己命运的权利200多年以后,让美利坚合众国更加完美的任务又向前推进了一步。

这一进程是因为你们而向前推进的,因为你们再次确认了那种使美国胜利克服了战争和萧条的精神,那种使美国摆脱绝望的深渊并走向希望的最高点的精神,以及那种虽然我们每个人都在追求自己的个人梦想、但我们同属一个美国大家庭、并作为一个国家和民族共同进退的信仰。

今夜,在此次选举中,你们这些美国人民提醒我们,虽然我们的道路一直艰难,虽然我们的旅程一直漫长,但我们已经让自己振作起来,我们已经发起反击,我们在自己内心深处知道,对美利坚合众国来说,最美好一切属于未来。

我想感谢所有参加此次选举的美国人,无论你是首次参加选举还是为投票曾长时间排队等候。

顺便说一句,我们需要解决这些问题。

无论你是到投票站投票还是发传真投票,无论你选的是奥巴马还是罗姆尼,你都让别人听到了自己的声音,你都让美国因你而不同。

我要对罗姆尼州长说几句话,我对他和保罗•莱恩在这次竞争激烈的选举中的表现表示祝贺。

我们可能争夺得很激烈,但这仅仅是因为我们深爱着这个国家以及我们如此强烈地关心着它的未来。

从乔治到勒诺到他们的儿子米特,罗姆尼家族选择了通过公共服务来回报美国,那是一种我们今夜表示敬重和赞许的遗产。

我期待着今后几周能与罗姆尼州长坐下来讨论一下我们可以从何处着手一起努力将美国推向前进。

我想对我在过去四年中的朋友和伙伴表示感谢。

他就是美国的快乐战士、无出其右的最佳副总统乔•拜登。

如果不是那位20年前同意嫁给我的女性,我不会成为今天的我。

请让我公开说出下面这段话:米切尔,我对你的爱无以复加,我无比骄傲地看到其他美国人也爱上了你这位我们国家的第一夫人。

萨沙和玛利亚,在我们所有人的见证下你们正成长为两个坚强、聪明和美丽的年轻女性,就像你们的妈妈一样。

我十分以你们为荣。

奥巴马开学演讲稿英文

奥巴马开学演讲稿英文Ladies and gentlemen, it is an honor to be here today to address the students of this esteemed institution. As I stand before you, I am reminded of the power and potential that each and every one of you holds within yourselves. 。

Education is the key to unlocking that potential, and it is through education that we can build a better future for ourselves and for the world. It is a privilege to be able to stand here today and speak to you about the importance of education, and the role that each of you can play in shaping the world around you.As I look out at this audience, I see the faces of future leaders, innovators, and change-makers. Each of you has the power to make a difference, and it is through your education that you will be able to harness that power and use it for the greater good.But education is not just about gaining knowledge and skills. It is also about learning to think critically, to question the world around you, and to seek out new solutions to the challenges that we face. It is about developing empathy and understanding for others, and about working together to build a more just and equitable society.I am reminded of the words of Nelson Mandela, who said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." These words ring true today as much as they ever have. Education has the power to transform lives, to break down barriers, and to create a more peaceful and prosperous world for all.As you embark on this new academic year, I urge each of you to take full advantage of the opportunities that are presented to you. Seek out new experiences, challenge yourselves, and never stop learning. The world is full of possibilities, and it is up to each of you to seize those opportunities and make the most of them.I also encourage you to remember the importance of giving back. As you pursue your own education and personal growth, remember those who are less fortunate, and seek out ways to use your knowledge and skills to make a positive impact in the world.In closing, I want to leave you with a quote from the great American writer, Mark Twain, who said, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." So, go forth with courage and conviction, and make the most of the opportunities that lie ahead. The world is waiting for your contributions, and I have no doubt that each of you will go on to do great things.Thank you, and best of luck in the year ahead.。

奥巴马英文励志演讲稿

奥巴马英文励志演讲稿

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

奥巴马告别演讲英文全文

奥巴马告别演讲英文全文

奥巴马告别演讲英文全文当地时间1月10日,奥巴马在芝加哥麦克米克会展中心(McCormick Place)作了告别演讲。

我们不妨来看看奥巴马告别演讲英文全文吧,以下是小编精心整理的相关内容,希望对大家有所帮助!奥巴马告别演讲英文全文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 offaith, 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 experiment 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-executing; 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 exceptional. 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.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 onthe 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 taxes for corporations? How do we excuse 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 existence 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 onprinciples 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 extraordinary 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 executed 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 external 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 expand democracy, and human rights, women’s rights, and LGBT rights no matter how imperfect our efforts, no matter how expedient ignoring such values may seem. For thefight against extremism 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 extremes.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 anxiety;” that we should reject “the first dawningof 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 examining our own role in electing them.It falls to each of us to be those anxious, 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 onein real life. If something needs fixing, 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 forrefugees, 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 XX, in XX, in XX 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 ofyears 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, everyyoung 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 beright 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.。

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

奥巴马励志演讲稿英文版

Ladies and Gentlemen,Good morning. It is an honor to stand before you today and share some thoughts that have deeply resonated with me throughout my life. As you gather here, each of you carries a story, a journey, and a dream. And it is in the telling of these stories and the pursuit of these dreams that I find the greatest inspiration.I want to talk to you about the power of determination. Determination is not just about willpower; it is about resilience, it is about hope, and it is about the belief that each of us has the capacity to change our lives and the world around us.Let me take you back to a moment that shaped my own determination. It was the summer of 1991, and I was just a young community organizer in Chicago. I had spent months knocking on doors, listening to the stories of working families who were struggling to make ends meet. I had seen the hope in their eyes, and I had felt the weight of their dreams on my shoulders.It was in those moments that I realized the true power of community. I saw that when we come together, our collective strength can overcome even the most daunting challenges. But I also saw that individual determination was the spark that ignited that collective power.So, I made a promise to myself. I promised that I would fight for these families, that I would fight for a fairer America, and that I would never give up, no matter how difficult the road ahead might be.Fast forward to 2004, and I stood before you as a candidate for the United States Senate. I remember the words I spoke that day: "Hope is not blind optimism. It is not a passive resignation to the flow of events. Hope is the belief that we can make a difference."These words have guided me ever since. They remind us that hope is a powerful force, but it is not enough on its own. Hope must be accompanied by action, by determination, and by the courage to face our fears.In 2008, I stood before you as a candidate for the presidency. I spoke of a new dawn, a time when we would come together to tackle the great challenges of our time. I spoke of a country that would once again lead the world not just with our might, but with our moral courage.We were not just elected to serve; we were elected to lead. And lead we did. We faced economic turmoil, global conflict, and a host of other challenges. But through it all, we never lost sight of our goals. We never forgot the faces of the Americans who had sent us to Washington to make their lives better.We fought for healthcare reform because we believed that no one in America should go without the care they need. We fought for the Recovery Act because we knew that we had to put people back to work and get our economy moving again. We fought for climate change legislation because we understood that the future of our planet depends on our actions today.And in each of these battles, we saw the power of determination. We saw that when we stand together, we can achieve the impossible. We saw that when we are determined to make a difference, we can change the course of history.Now, as I stand before you today, I want to share some lessons I have learned along the way.First, determination requires resilience. Life will throw curveballs at you. You will face setbacks and obstacles that seem insurmountable. But if you are determined, you will find a way to rise above them. You will find the strength to keep going, even when others might give up.Second, determination requires hope. Hope is the fuel that keeps us going. It is the belief that, no matter how dark the night may seem, the dawn will come. It is the faith that, if we work together, we can make a difference.Third, determination requires action. It is not enough to have good intentions. We must take those intentions and turn them into action. We must roll up our sleeves and get to work. We must engage in the messybusiness of politics, of community organizing, of activism, because that is where change happens.Fourth, determination requires the courage to be different. Sometimes, the path you choose will not be the easy one. It will not be the paththat everyone else is taking. But if you are determined to make a difference, you must be willing to stand apart, to be different, and to lead the way.Ladies and Gentlemen, my friends, we live in a time of great uncertainty. The world is changing rapidly, and with change comes both opportunityand peril. But let us not be afraid. Let us not be daunted by the challenges that lie ahead. Let us be determined.Determined to fight for justice and equality. Determined to protect our planet for future generations. Determined to build a more perfect union, a more just and more peaceful world.Remember, determination is not just a word. It is a commitment. It is a promise to ourselves and to each other that we will never give up, no matter how hard the fight might be.So, let us go forth with courage and with hope. Let us go forth with determination. And let us make our mark on the world, because the future is ours to shape, and the power of determination is ours to wield.Thank you. God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.。

奥巴马大选胜选的英文演讲稿三篇演讲稿一:奥巴马大选胜选演讲稿Ladies and gentlemen,Thank you all for being here today. It is an honor to stand before you as the newly elected President of the United States. I am humbled by the trust and confidence you have placed in me, and I am ready to lead this great nation towards a brighter future.Over the course of this campaign, we have seen the power of hope and unity. We have witnessed the strength of the American people, who have come together to build a better tomorrow. Today, I stand before you not as a Democrat or a Republican, but as an American, ready to work with each and every one of you to bring about the change we so desperately need.As I look out into this crowd, I see faces from all walks of life. I see the faces of hardworking families struggling to make ends meet.I see the faces of young students dreaming of a brighter future. I see the faces of our brave men and women in uniform, who sacrifice so much to protect our freedoms. And I see the faces of those who have been left behind, forgotten by a system that no longer works for them.But today, I promise you this: I will be a president for all Americans. I will fight for every single one of you, regardless of your race, your religion, or your background. I will work tirelessly to create jobs, to improve our education system, and to provide access to affordable healthcare for all. I will fight for equality and justice, and I will never stop believing in the power of the American dream.Together, we can overcome the challenges that lie ahead. We can rebuild our economy, strengthen our communities, and restore faith in our government. But it will not be easy. It will require hard work, determination, and a willingness to put aside our differences and come together as one nation.I am reminded of the words of our founding fathers, who understood that ‘we the people’ have the power to shape our own destiny. They understood that in times of crisis, it is our unity that will see us through. And they understood that it is our shared values and common purpose that make us strong.So let us come together, my fellow Americans, and let us build a future that is worthy of our children and grandchildren. Let us never forget that we are a nation of immigrants, a land of opportunity, and a beacon of hope for the world. And let us never lose faith in the power of democracy, for it is through our collective voice that we can make a difference.Thank you, and God bless you all.演讲稿二:奥巴马大选胜选演讲稿My fellow Americans,Today, we have made history. We have chosen hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. Today, we have sent a clear message to the world: that the United States of America is ready to lead once again.I stand before you as the 44th President of the United States, but I am not here alone. I am here because of the millions of Americans who believed in this campaign, who volunteered their time andtheir energy, who knocked on doors and made phone calls, who gave what they could to make this moment possible.I am here because of the mothers and fathers who work two jobs to make ends meet, but still find the time to read bedtime stories to their children. I am here because of the young people who are not just our future, but our present, who are ready to take on the challenges of our time. I am here because of the men and women in uniform who serve this country with honor and dignity, who sacrifice so much for our freedom.But most of all, I am here because of you, the American people. You have shown the world that change is possible, that we can come together and make a difference. You have proven that hope is not a hollow word, but a powerful force that can move mountains.Now, the real work begins. We face many challenges as a nation, but I am confident that together, we can overcome them. We can rebuild our economy, create jobs, and ensure that everyone has a fair shot at success. We can improve our education system, so that every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential. We can tackle the urgent threat of climate change, and leave behind a planet that is safe and sustainable for future generations.But we cannot do it alone. It will require all of us, working together, to bring about the change we so desperately need. It will require us to put aside our differences and find common ground. It will require us to listen to one another, to respect one another, and to remember that we are all Americans, united by a common purpose.So let us move forward with courage and conviction. Let us embrace the challenges that lie ahead, knowing that our best days are still ahead of us. Let us never forget that we are a nation of immigrants, a land of opportunity, and a beacon of hope for the world. And let us never lose sight of the fact that we are all in this together.Thank you, and God bless you all.演讲稿三:奥巴马大选胜选演讲稿My fellow Americans,Today, we have made history.

I am here because of the millions of Americans who believed in this campaign, who stood up and said, “Yes, we can.” I am here because of the mothers and fathers who work long hours to provide for their families, but still find the time to volunteer in their communities.

My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors。

I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.各位同胞:今天我站在这里,为眼前的重责大任感到谦卑,对各位的信任心怀感激,对先贤的牺牲铭记在心。

我要谢谢布什总统为这个国家的服务,也感谢他在政权转移期间的宽厚和配合。

Forty—four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace。

Yet, every so often, the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebearers, and true to our founding documents。

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 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 extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday. But bec ause 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 expected of all of you in this new school year.Now, I’ve given a lot of speeches about education. And I’ve talke d 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 Xbox.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’tgetting 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: t he 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 gre at 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 next 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 gre atest 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 creativityand 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, s o 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 mo ney 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, h ow much money you have, what you’ve got going on at home -- none of that is an excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude in school. That’s no excuse for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping out of school. There is no excuse 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, bec ause here in America, you write your own destiny. You make your own future.That’s what young people like you a re doing every day, all across America. Young people like Jazmin Perez, from Roma, Texas. Jazmin didn’t speak English when shefirst 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 extra 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 Chic ago, 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 scho ol 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 expect 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 extracurricular activity, or volunteer in your community. May be you’ll decide to stand up for kids who are being teased or bullied bec ause 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 bas ketball 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 homeworkassignment 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 bec ause 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 next 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 bec ause it shows you have the courage to admit when you don’t know so mething, 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 abo ut 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 sit75 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 fix 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 expect all of you to get serious this year.I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do. I expect gre at 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.。
