At Graduate Commencement Ceremony

June 24th 2009

亲爱的09届毕业生同学们，你们好！­

Dear students of the Graduating Class in 2009,

四年前，我迎来了你们中的大多数人。今天，在你们毕业之际，在你们即将踏上新的征途的前夕，我想对你们说两个字，那就是“牵挂”。­

Four years ago, I welcomed most of you studying here. Today, as you are graduating and embarking on a new journey, I’d like to give two words to you, that is, “My Obsession”.

今年对于整个世界来说都是困难的一年。世界的金融危机也影响到中国的经济形势，乃至就业形势。同学们，你们是否都找到了合适的工作？我们牵挂着。­

This year is the most difficult one for the whole world. The world's financial crisis has not only

made a great impact on China's economic, but also on your employment. My dear students, have your found suitable jobs? You are my obsession

你们中的一部分人，即将踏入工作的社会，那可是没有在学校那么简单和单纯。你既需要充分地展示自己，又不能过分地表现自己；你既需要尊重领导和前辈，又不必刻意去逢迎；你既需要有理想和目标，又不能刻意追求、过于功利；你既需要与同事竞争，更需要与他们协同。亲爱的同学，你准备好了吗？我们牵挂着。­

Some of you are going to work in the society, where is not as simple and pure as in the school. It is required that you should fully demonstrate yourselves but not excessively; respect the leadership and senior, but not curry favor; make target and goals, but not desperate for it and seek for utilitarian way; compete with your colleagues, as well as cooperate with them well. My dear students, are you ready? You are my obsession. -

也许你将走在一条大道上，在大城市，在名单位……大道上有千军万马，当你意气风发、策马奔驰的时候，可要当心，那里非常拥挤，脚下甚至还有石头。亲爱的同学，竞争的路上，千万别摔到，我们牵挂着。­

Maybe you are going to embark on a bright journey, work in big cities and famous corporations ... ... You will be beset with severe competition in this bright journey. When you cheerfully travel on the journey, Please take great concern on the hurdles and obstacles. My dear students, please never give up upon reaching the rugged place. You are my obsession

也许你将走在一条小道上，在乡村, 在城镇，甚至在西部……一条小路曲曲弯弯细又长，一样通向理想的远方。小道旁时而风景可人，或许有溪流奏响，或许有百鸟鸣唱，还有万紫千红竞芬芳。小路上时而泥泞，时而杂草丛生，甚至蛇蝎横行。当风景迷人时，不要太迷恋；当小路难行时，千万别退缩。纵使山穷水尽之际，只要坚持，相信会有柳暗花明之时。亲爱的同学，你有思想准备吗？我们牵挂着。­

Maybe you are going to embark on a small journey, work in the villages, towns; even in the West ... ... You will see vivid picture, quiet stream, singing birds and fragrant flowers. Travelers on this small journey will pass through now a muddy, now overgrown weeds, and even hazardous place. A determined traveler will continue his journey rather than obsess with scenery place on the journey. He finds it still more fascinating to come to a rugged place rather than give it up until reach a safe and smooth place. My dear students, are you prepared for it? You are my obsession.

也许你将走在崎岖的山路上，为学术，为创业……那是一条攀登之路。你不仅需要优化方向，选择好路径，而且你要看清脚下的每一步。攀登悬崖峭壁时，可不能有一步的闪失。一步不慎，多年的心血，可能功亏一篑。亲爱的同学，你可有思想准备？我们牵挂着。­

Maybe you are going to travel in the rugged mountain, serve for the academic, the business ... ... It was a difficult journey. It is required that you should make the right direction and choose the appropriate path, and keep aware of your footstep. While climbing cliffs, please take care of missteps. Sometimes, missteps will lead the failure of many years' effort. My dear students, are
