奥巴马开学演讲：Speech: Why should we go to school? Hello, everybody! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, everybody. All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat. How is everybody doing today? How about Tim Spicer? 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.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。

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 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 cou ld’ve stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.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。

奥巴马总统在开学日的讲话（中英对照）_开学典礼发言稿_

奥巴马总统在开学日的讲话（中英对照）简介9月8日是美国中小学统一开学的日子，奥巴马借此机会向全国的中小学生做了一次讲话，以下是白宫网站上预先发布的全文的翻译。

奥巴马总统在开学日的讲话弗吉尼亚州，阿林顿市，XX年9月8日嗨，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。

Education is not merely about acquiring knowledge, but it is a transformative journey that enables you to shape your own destiny. It opens doors to opportunities, broadens your horizons, and empowers you to make a difference in the world. Each and every one of you has the ability to create positive change, and education is the key to unlocking that potential.教育不仅仅是获取知识，而是一段让你能够塑造自己命运的变革之旅。

奥巴马开学演讲(中英文)

美国总统奥巴马9月8日开学演讲REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENTIN A NATIONAL ADDRESS TO AMERICA'S SCHOOLCHILDRENWakefield High SchoolArlington,Virginia Hello,everybody!Thank you.Thank you.Thank you,everybody.All right,everybody go ahead and have a seat.How is everybody going today?How about Tim Spicer?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 through12th 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.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--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 extra lessons herself,Monday through Friday.But because she had to go to work,the only time she could do it was at4:30in 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."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 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 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'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 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 anarchitect,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,shehas 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 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,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,Texas.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 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 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 theireducation,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. 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 rejected12times 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 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 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 sit250years 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 sit20years 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 in20or50or100years 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 yourclassrooms 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 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.。

奥巴马总统讲演的风格很口语化,讲道理深入浅出,很有感染力.论坛里的朋友相信有很多都是已经为人父母了,我的孩子上周也进入小学一年级,踏上了漫长的求学之路.如何教育孩子,激励孩子,可能是每个家长最头痛的问题.我建议你亲自给你的孩子读一下这篇讲演,跟他(她)讨论一下,让孩子理解一下他(她)身上所承担的对自己,对国家的责任.发这个贴之前,踌躇再三,毕竟讲教育的主题跟股市的主旨有些不合,但我觉得从投资角度而言,教育上面花费的时间、精力，金钱的投资,不管是投向自己,还是孩子,都是我们一生中所能做出的最好的,永远都不会后悔的投资选择之一．毕竟，一个更好的未来，一个更强大的国家，一个更美，更和谐的世界愿景都要依靠我们的孩子们去实现．弗吉尼亚州，阿林顿市，2009年9月8日嗨，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。

Thank you! Hello! (Applause.) Thank you. Thank you. Well, hello, Philadelphia! (Applause.) And hello, Masterman. It is wonderful to see all of you. What a terrific introduction by Kelly. Give Kelly a big round of applause. (Applause.) I was saying backstage that when I was in high school, I could not have done that. (Laughter.) I would have muffed it up somehow. So we are so proud of you and everything that you’ve done. And to all the students here, I’m thrilled to be here.谢谢！你们好！（掌声。

谢谢。

你好，费城！（掌声。

）你好，马斯特曼。

见到你们真是太好了。

Kelly的介绍真是太棒了。

让我们对Kelly报以热烈的掌声。

在后台的时候我说，我上高中的时候我就做不这么好，我可能会弄的一团糟。

所以让我们为你和你做的一切自豪吧。

站在这里我很激动。

（掌声），我感到非常的激动。

我耳闻了你们做的那些伟大的事，这里面有在校的学生，老师和工作人员。

Today is about welcoming all of you, and all of America’s students, back to school, even though I know you’ve been in school for a little bit now. And I can’t think of a better place to do it than at Masterman. (Applause.) Because you are one of the best schools in Philadelphia. You are a leader in helping students succeed in the classroom. Just last week, you were recognized by a National Blue Ribbon -- as a National Blue Ribbon School because of your record of achievement. And that is a testament to everybody here –- to the students, to the parents, to the teachers, to the school leaders. It’s an example of excellence that I hope communities across America can embrace.今天欢迎你们，欢迎每一个美国学生回校上课，当然你们在学校已经呆了一段时间了。

我想不出除了在Masterman外，还有哪个地方更适合做这件事。

（掌声）因为你们是费城最好的学校之一。

你们在教育方面是领头军。

就在上周，由于你们的卓越贡献，被授为国家蓝丝带勋章。

这是对每个人的见证，对学生，家长，老师还有学校领导人。

我希望全美的社会团体都能欣然接受这个杰出代表的例子。

embrace vt.拥抱；接受Over the past few weeks, Michelle and I have been getting Sasha and Malia ready for school. And they’re excited about it. I’ll bet they had the same feelings that you do -- you’re a little sad to see the summer go, but you’re also excited about the possibilities of a new year. The possibilities of building new friendships and strengthening old ones, of joining a school club, or trying out for a team. The possibilities of growing into a better student and a better person and making not just your family proud but making yourself proud.几周前，我和Michelle为Sasha和Malia上学的事做准备。

她们两个对这非常的期待。

我敢打赌她们和你们一样，有着相同的感觉。

你们为夏天的逝去而神伤，但是你们更应该期待新的一年。

如你们可以结交新的朋友，加深同老朋友的感情，加入学校俱乐部，参加各种团队的选拔赛。

成长为一个更优秀的学生和个人，不仅仅让你的家人自豪，同样让你们自己也很有成就感。

build friendships 结交新朋友But I know some of you may also be a little nervous about starting a new school year. Maybe you’re making the jump from elementary to middle school, or from middle school to high school, and you’re worried about what that’s going to be like. Maybe you’re starting a new school. You’re not sure how you’ll like it, trying to figure out how you’re going to fit in. Or maybe you’re a senior, and you’re anxious about the whole college process; about where to apply and whether you can afford to go to college.我知道，你们中有些人在新学年会有些紧张。

或许你刚从小学升到初中，从初中升到高中，会担心，新的学年将会是什么样的呢。

也许你进入一所新的学校，不知道是否会喜欢这个学校，想着怎么来融入这个学校。

或许你到了高三年级，对整个的大学入学程序感到不安，比如申请那里的学校，能不能支付上大学的费用等等。

elementary school n.小学figure out 想明白，弄清楚fit in 融入，适应afford to do 承担得起And beyond all those concerns, I know a lot of you are also feeling the strain of some difficult times. You know what’s going on in the news and you also know what’s going on in some of your own families. You’ve read about the war in Afghanistan. Y ou hear about the recession that we’ve been through. And sometimes maybe you’re seeing the worries in your parents’faces or sense it in their voice.除此之外，我知道你们还有来自困难时期的压力。
