奥巴马总统发表任内最后一次国情咨文英语演讲稿

Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, Members of Congress, my fellow Americans:

Tonight marks the eighth year I've come here to report on the State of the Union. And for thisfinal one, I'm going to try to make it shorter. I know some of you are antsy to get back to Iowa.

I also understand that because it's an election season, expectations for what we'll achievethis year are low. Still, Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the constructive approach you and theother leaders took at the end of last year to pass a budget and make tax cuts permanent forworking families. So I hope we can work together this year on bipartisan priorities like criminaljustice reform, and helping people who are battling prescription drug abuse. We just mightsurprise the cynics again.

But tonight, I want to go easy on the traditional list of proposals for the year ahead. Don'tworry, I've got plenty, from helping students learn to write computer code to personalizingmedical treatments for patients. And I'll keep pushing for progress on the work that still needsdoing. Fixing a broken immigration system. Protecting our kids from gun

violence. Equal payfor equal work, paid leave, raising the minimum wage. All these things still matter tohardworking families; they are still the right thing to do; and I will not let up until they getdone.

But for my final address to this chamber, I don't want to talk just about the next year. I wantto focus on the next five years, ten years, and beyond.

I want to focus on our future.

We live in a time of extraordinary change – change that's reshaping the way we live, the waywe work, our planet and our place in the world. It's change that promises amazing medicalbreakthroughs, but also economic disruptions that strain working families. It promiseseducation for girls in the most remote villages, but also connects terrorists plotting an oceanaway. It's change that can broaden opportunity, or widen inequality. And whether we like itor not, the pace of this change will only accelerate.

America has been through big changes before – wars and depression, the influx ofimmigrants, workers fighting for a fair deal, and movements to expand civil rights. Each time,there have been those who told us to fear the future; who claimed we could slam the brakes onchange, promising to restore

past glory if we just got some group or idea that wasthreatening America under control. And each time, we overcame those fears. We did not, inthe words of Lincoln, adhere to the “dogmas of the quiet past.” Instead we thought anew, andacted anew. We made change work for us, always extending America's promise outward, to thenext frontier, to more and more people. And because we did – because we saw opportunitywhere others saw only peril – we emerged stronger and better than before.

What was true then can be true now. Our unique strengths as a nation – our optimism andwork ethic, our spirit of discovery and innovation, our diversity and commitment to the ruleof law – these things give us everything we need to ensure prosperity and security forgenerations to come.

In fact, it's that spirit that made the progress of these past seven years possible. It's how werecovered from the worst economic crisis in generations. It's how we reformed our health caresystem, and reinvented our energy sector; how we delivered more care and benefits to ourtroops and veterans, and how we secured the freedom in every state to marry the person welove.

But such progress is not inevitable. It is the result of choices we make together. And we facesuch choices right now. Will we respond to the changes of our time with fear, turning

inward asa nation, and turning against each other as a people? Or will we face the future withconfidence in who we are, what we stand for, and the incredible things we can do together?

So let's talk about the future, and four big questions that we as a country have to answer –regardless of who the next President is, or who controls the next Congress.

First, how do we give everyone a fair shot at opportunity and security in this new economy?

Second, how do we make technology work for us, and not against us – especially when it comesto solving urgent challenges like climate change?

Third, how do we keep America safe and lead the world without becoming its policeman?

And finally, how can we make our politics reflect what's best in us, and not what's worst?

Let me start with the economy, and a basic fact: the United States of America, right now, hasthe strongest, most durable economy in the world. We're in the middle of the longest streakof private-sector job creation in history. More than 14 million new jobs; the strongest two yearsof job growth since the ‘90s; an unemployment rate cut in half. Our auto industry just had itsbest year ever. Manufacturing has created nearly

900,000 new jobs in the past six years. Andwe've done all this while cutting our deficits by almost three-quarters.

Anyone claiming that America's economy is in decline is peddling fiction. What is true – andthe reason that a lot of Americans feel anxious – is that the economy has been changing inprofound ways, changes that started long before the Great Recession hit and haven't let up.Today, technology doesn't just replace jobs on the assembly line, but any job where work canbe automated. Companies in a global economy can locate anywhere, and face toughercompetition. As a result, workers have less leverage for a raise. Companies have less loyaltyto their communities. And more and more wealth and income is concentrated at the very top.

All these trends have squeezed workers, even when they have jobs; even when the economy isgrowing. It's made it harder for a hardworking family to pull itself out of poverty, harder foryoung people to start on their careers, and tougher for workers to retire when they want to. Andalthough none of these trends are unique to America, they do offend our uniquely Americanbelief that everybody who works hard should get a fair shot.

For the past seven years, our goal has been a growing

economy that works better for everybody.We've made progress. But we need to make more. And despite all the political arguments we'vehad these past few years, there are some areas where Americans broadly agree.

We agree that real opportunity requires every American to get the education and training theyneed to land a good-paying job. The bipartisan reform of No Child Left Behind was animportant start, and together, we've increased early childhood education, lifted high schoolgraduation rates to new highs, and boosted graduates in fields like engineering. In the comingyears, we should build on that progress, by providing Pre-K for all, offering every student thehands-on computer science and math classes that make them job-ready on day one, and weshould recruit and support more great teachers for our kids.

And we have to make college affordable for every American. Because no hardworking studentshould be stuck in the red. We've already reduced student loan payments to ten percent of aborrower's income. Now, we've actually got to cut the cost of college. Providing two years ofcommunity college at no cost for every responsible student is one of the best ways to do that,and I'm going to keep fighting to get that started this year.

Of course, a great education isn't all we need in this new economy. We also need benefits andprotections that provide a basic measure of security. After all, it's not much of a stretch tosay that some of the only people in America who are going to work the same job, in the sameplace, with a health and retirement package, for 30 years, are sitting in this chamber. Foreveryone else, especially folks in their forties and fifties, saving for retirement or bouncing backfrom job loss has gotten a lot tougher. Americans understand that at some point in theircareers, they may have to retool and retrain. But they shouldn't lose what they've alreadyworked so hard to build.

That's why Social Security and Medicare are more important than ever; we shouldn't weakenthem, we should strengthen them. And for Americans short of retirement, basic benefitsshould be just as mobile as everything else is today. That's what the Affordable Care Act is allabout. It's about filling the gaps in employer-based care so that when we lose a job, or go backto school, or start that new business, we'll still have coverage. Nearly eighteen million havegained coverage so far. Health care inflation has slowed. And our businesses have created jobsevery single month since it became law.

Now, I'm guessing we won't agree on health care anytime soon.

But there should be other waysboth parties can improve economic security. Say a hardworking American loses his job –weshouldn't just make sure he can get unemployment insurance; we should make sure thatprogram encourages him to retrain for a business that's ready to hire him. If that new jobdoesn't pay as much, there should be a system of wage insurance in place so that he can stillpay his bills. And even if he's going from job to job, he should still be able to save forretirement and take his savings with him. That's the way we make the new economy workbetter for everyone.

I also know Speaker Ryan has talked about his interest in tackling poverty. America is aboutgiving everybody willing to work a hand up, and I'd welcome a serious discussion aboutstrategies we can all support, like expanding tax cuts for low-income workers without kids.

But there are other areas where it's been more difficult to find agreement over the last sevenyears – namely what role the government should play in making sure the system's not rigged infavor of the wealthiest and biggest corporations. And here, the American people have a choiceto make.

I believe a thriving private sector is the lifeblood of our economy. I think there are outdatedregulations that need to be

changed, and there's red tape that needs to be cut. But after yearsof record corporate profits, working families won't get more opportunity or bigger paychecksby letting big banks or big oil or hedge funds make their own rules at the expense of everyoneelse; or by allowing attacks on collective bargaining to go unanswered. Food Stamp recipientsdidn't cause the financial crisis; recklessness on Wall Street did. Immigrants aren't the reasonwages haven't gone up enough; those decisions are made in the boardrooms that too often putquarterly earnings over long-term returns. It's sure not the average family watching tonightthat avoids paying taxes through offshore accounts. In this new economy, workers and start-upsand small businesses need more of a voice, not less. The rules should work for them. And thisyear I plan to lift up the many businesses who've figured out that doing right by their workersends up being good for their shareholders, their customers, and their communities, so that wecan spread those best practices across America.

In fact, many of our best corporate citizens are also our most creative. This brings me to thesecond big question we have to answer as a country: how do we reignite that spirit ofinnovation to meet our biggest challenges?

Sixty years ago, when the Russians beat us into space, we didn't deny Sputnik was up there.We didn't argue about the science, or shrink our research and development budget. We built aspace program almost overnight, and twelve years later, we were walking on the moon.

That spirit of discovery is in our DNA. We're Thomas Edison and the Wright Brothers andGeorge Washington Carver. We're Grace Hopper and Katherine Johnson and Sally Ride. We'reevery immigrant and entrepreneur from Boston to Austin to Silicon Valley racing to shape abetter world. And over the past seven years, we've nurtured that spirit.

We've protected an open internet, and taken bold new steps to get more students and low-income Americans online. We've launched next-generation manufacturing hubs, and online toolsthat give an entrepreneur everything he or she needs to start a business in a single day.

But we can do so much more. Last year, Vice President Biden said that with a new moonshot,America can cure cancer. Last month, he worked with this Congress to give scientists at theNational Institutes of Health the strongest resources they've had in over a decade. Tonight, I'mannouncing a new national effort to get it done. And because he's gone to the

mat for all of us,on so many issues over the past forty years, I'm putting Joe in charge of Mission Control. Forthe loved ones we've all lost, for the family we can still save, let's make America the countrythat cures cancer once and for all.

Medical research is critical. We need the same level of commitment when it comes todeveloping clean energy sources.

Look, if anybody still wants to dispute the science around climate change, have at it. You'll bepretty lonely, because you'll be debating our military, most of America's business leaders, themajority of the American people, almost the entire scientific community, and 200 nationsaround the world who agree it's a problem and intend to solve it.

But even if the planet wasn't at stake; even if 2019 wasn't the warmest year on record – until2019 turned out even hotter – why would we want to pass up the chance for Americanbusinesses to produce and sell the energy of the future?

Seven years ago, we made the single biggest investment in clean energy in our history. Hereare the results. In fields from Iowa to Texas, wind power is now cheaper than

dirtier,conventional power. On rooftops from Arizona to New York, solar is saving Americans tens ofmillions of dollars a year on their energy bills, and employs more Americans than coal

– in jobsthat pay better than average. We're taking steps to give homeowners the freedom to generateand store their own energy – something environmentalists and Tea Partiers have teamed up tosupport. Meanwhile, we've cut our imports of foreign oil by nearly sixty percent, and cut carbonpollution more than any other country on Earth.

Gas under two bucks a gallon ain't bad, either.

Now we've got to accelerate the transition away from dirty energy. Rather than subsidizethe past, we should invest in the future – especially in communities that rely on fossil fuels.That's why I'm going to push to change the way we manage our oil and coal resources, so thatthey better reflect the costs they impose on taxpayers and our planet. That way, we putmoney back into those communities and put tens of thousands of Americans to work building a21st century transportation system.

None of this will happen overnight, and yes, there are plenty of entrenched interests whowant to protect the status quo. But the jobs we'll create, the money we'll save, and the planetwe'll preserve – that's the kind of future our kids and grandkids deserve.

Climate change is just one of many issues where our security is linked to the rest of the world.And that's why the third big

question we have to answer is how to keep America safe andstrong without either isolating ourselves or trying to nation-build everywhere there's a problem.

I told you earlier all the talk of America's economic decline is political hot air. Well, so is all therhetoric you hear about our enemies getting stronger and America getting weaker. The UnitedStates of America is the most powerful nation on Earth. Period. It's not even close. We spendmore on our military than the next eight nations combined. Our troops are the finest fightingforce in the history of the world. No nation dares to attack us or our allies because they knowthat's the path to ruin. Surveys show our standing around the world is higher than when I waselected to this office, and when it comes to every important international issue, people of theworld do not look to Beijing or Moscow to lead – they call us.

As someone who begins every day with an intelligence briefing, I know this is a dangeroustime. But that's not because of diminished American strength or some looming superpower. Intoday's world, we're threatened less by evil empires and more by failing states. The Middle Eastis going through a transformation that will play out for a generation, rooted in conflicts thatdate back millennia. Economic headwinds blow

from a Chinese economy in transition. Even astheir economy contracts, Russia is pouring resources to prop up Ukraine and Syria – states theysee slipping away from their orbit. And the international system we built after World War II isnow struggling to keep pace with this new reality.

It's up to us to help remake that system. And that means we have to set priorities.

Priority number one is protecting the American people and going after terrorist networks. Bothal Qaeda and now ISIL pose a direct threat to our people, because in today's world, even ahandful of terrorists who place no value on human life, including their own, can do a lot ofdamage. They use the Internet to poison the minds of individuals inside our country; theyundermine our allies.

But as we focus on destroying ISIL, over-the-top claims that this is World War III just play intotheir hands. Masses of fighters on the back of pickup trucks and twisted souls plotting inapartments or garages pose an enormous danger to civilians and must be stopped. But theydo not threaten our national existence. That's the story ISIL wants to tell; that's the kind ofpropaganda they use to recruit. We don't need to build them up to show that we're serious,nor do we need to push

away vital allies in this fight by echoing the lie that ISIL isrepresentative of one of the world's largest religions. We just need to call them what they are– killers and fanatics who have to be rooted out, hunted down, and destroyed.

That's exactly what we are doing. For more than a year, America has led a coalition of morethan 60 countries to cut off ISIL's financing, disrupt their plots, stop the flow of terroristfighters, and stamp out their vicious ideology. With nearly 10,000 air strikes, we are takingout their leadership, their oil, their training camps, and their weapons. We are training, arming,and supporting forces who are steadily reclaiming territory in Iraq and Syria.

If this Congress is serious about winning this war, and wants to send a message to our troopsand the world, you should finally authorize the use of military force against ISIL. Take a vote.But the American people should know that with or without Congressional action, ISIL will learnthe same lessons as terrorists before them. If you doubt America's commitment –or mine – tosee that justice is done, ask Osama bin Laden. Ask the leader of al Qaeda in Yemen, who wastaken out last year, or the perpetrator of the Benghazi attacks, who sits in a prison cell. Whenyou come after Americans, we go after you. It may take

time, but we have long memories, andour reach has no limit.

Our foreign policy must be focused on the threat from ISIL and al Qaeda, but it can't stopthere. For even without ISIL, instability will continue for decades in many parts of the world –in the Middle East, in Afghanistan and Pakistan, in parts of Central America, Africa and Asia.Some of these places may become safe havens for new terrorist networks; others will fall victimto ethnic conflict, or famine, feeding the next wave of refugees. The world will look to us tohelp solve these problems, and our answer needs to be more than tough talk or calls to carpetbomb civilians. That may work as a TV sound bite, but it doesn't pass muster on the worldstage.

We also can't try to take over and rebuild every country that falls into crisis. That's notleadership; that's a recipe for quagmire, spilling American blood and treasure that ultimatelyweakens us. It's the lesson of Vietnam, of Iraq –and we should have learned it by now.

Fortunately, there's a smarter approach, a patient and disciplined strategy that uses everyelement of our national power. It says America will always act, alone if necessary, to protectour people and our allies; but on issues of global concern, we will mobilize the world to workwith us, and make

sure other countries pull their own weight.

That's our approach to conflicts like Syria, where we're partnering with local forces and leadinginternational efforts to help that broken society pursue a lasting peace.

That's why we built a global coalition, with sanctions and principled diplomacy, to prevent anuclear-armed Iran. As we speak, Iran has rolled back its nuclear program, shipped out itsuranium stockpile, and the world has avoided another war.

That's how we stopped the spread of Ebola in West Africa. Our military, our doctors, and ourdevelopment workers set up the platform that allowed other countries to join us in stampingout that epidemic.

That's how we forged a Trans-Pacific Partnership to open markets, protect workers and theenvironment, and advance American leadership in Asia. It cuts 18,000 taxes on products Madein America, and supports more good jobs. With TPP, China doesn't set the rules in that region,we do. You want to show our strength in this century? Approve this agreement. Give us thetools to enforce it.

Fifty years of isolating Cuba had failed to promote democracy, setting us back in LatinAmerica. That's why we restored diplomatic relations, opened the door to travel

andcommerce, and positioned ourselves to improve the lives of the Cuban people. You want toconsolidate our leadership and credibility in the hemisphere? Recognize that the Cold Waris over. Lift the embargo.

American leadership in the 21st century is not a choice between ignoring the rest of the world –except when we kill terrorists; or occupying and rebuilding whatever society is unraveling.Leadership means a wise application of military power, and rallying the world behind causesthat are right. It means seeing our foreign assistance as part of our national security, notcharity. When we lead nearly 200 nations to the most ambitious agreement in history to fightclimate change –that helps vulnerable countries, but it also protects our children. When wehelp Ukraine defend its democracy, or Colombia resolve a decades-long war, thatstrengthens the international order we depend upon. When we help African countries feed theirpeople and care for the sick, that prevents the next pandemic from reaching our shores. Rightnow, we are on track to end the scourge of HIV/AIDS, and we have the capacity toaccomplish the same thing with malaria – something I'll be pushing this Congress to fund thisyear.

That's strength. That's leadership. And that kind of

leadership depends on the power of ourexample. That is why I will keep working to shut down the prison at Guantanamo:

it'sexpensive, it's unnecessary, and it only serves as a recruitment brochure for our enemies.

That's why we need to reject any politics that targets people because of race or religion. Thisisn't a matter of political correctness. It's a matter of understanding what makes us strong. Theworld respects us not just for our arsenal; it respects us for our diversity and our opennessand the way we respect every faith. His Holiness, Pope Francis, told this body from the very spotI stand tonight that “to imitate the hatred and violence of tyrants and murderers is the bestway to take their place.” When politicians insult Muslims, when a mosque is vandalized, or a kidbullied, that doesn't make us safer. That's not telling it like it is. It's just wrong. It diminishesus in the eyes of the world. It makes it harder to achieve our goals. And it betrays who we areas a country.

“We the People.” Our Constitution begins with those three simple words, words we've come torecognize mean all the people, not just some; words that insist we rise and fall together. Thatbrings me to the fourth, and maybe the most important thing I want to say tonight.

The future we want – opportunity and security for our families; a rising standard of living anda sustainable, peaceful planet for our kids – all that is within our reach. But it will only happenif we work together. It will only happen if we can have rational, constructive debates.

It will only happen if we fix our politics.

A better politics doesn't mean we have to agree on everything. This is a big country, withdifferent regions and attitudes and interests. That's one of our strengths, too. Our Foundersdistributed power between states and branches of government, and expected us to argue, justas they did, over the size and shape of government, over commerce and foreign relations, overthe meaning of liberty and the imperatives of security.

But democracy does require basic bonds of trust between its citizens. It doesn't work if wethink the people who disagree with us are all motivated by malice, or that our politicalopponents are unpatriotic. Democracy grinds to a halt without a willingness to compromise;or when even basic facts are contested, and we listen only to those who agree with us. Ourpublic life withers when only the most extreme voices get attention. Most of all, democracybreaks down when the average

奥巴马在复旦大学演讲稿(全)-中英文 Nong hao! Good afternoon. It is a great honor for me to be here in Shanghai, and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you. I'd like to thank Fudan University's President Yang for his hospitality and his gracious welcome. I'd also like to thank our outstanding Ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who exemplifies the deep ties and respect between our nations. I don't know what he said, but I hope it was good. (Laughter.) 侬好!诸位下午好。我感到很荣幸能够有机会到上海跟你们交谈,我要感谢复旦大学的杨校长,感谢他的款待和热情的欢迎。我还想感谢我们出色的大使洪博培,他是我们两国间深厚的纽带。我不知道他刚才说什么,但是希望他说得很好。 What I'd like to do is to make some opening comments, and then what I'm really looking forward to doing is taking questions, not only from students who are in the audience, but also we've received questions online, which will be asked by some of the students who are here in the audience, as well as by Ambassador Huntsman. And I am very sorry that my Chinese is not as good as your English, but I am looking forward to this chance to have a dialogue. 我今天准备这样,先做一个开场白,我真正希望做的是回答在座的问题,不但回答在座的学生问题,同时还可以从网上得到一些问题,由在座的一些学生和洪博培大使代为提问。很抱歉,我的中文远不如你们的英文,所以我期待和你们的对话。 This is my first time traveling to China, and I'm excited to see this majestic country. Here, in Shanghai, we see the growth that has caught the attention of the world -- the soaring skyscrapers, the bustling streets and entrepreneurial activity. And just as I'm impressed by these signs of China's journey to the 21st century, I'm eager to see those ancient places that speak to us from China's distant past. Tomorrow and the next day I hope to have a chance when I'm in Beijing to see the majesty of the Forbidden City and the wonder of the Great Wall. Truly, this is a nation that encompasses both a rich history and a belief in the promise of the future. 这是我首次访问中国,我看到你们博大的国家,感到很兴奋。在上海这里,我们看到了瞩目的增长,高耸的塔楼,繁忙的街道,还有企业家的精神。这些都是中国步入21世纪的迹象,让我感到赞叹。同时我也急切的要看到向我们展现中国古老的古迹,明天和后天我要到北京去看雄伟壮丽的故宫和令人叹为观止的长城,这个国度既有丰富的历史,又有对未来憧憬的信念。 The same can be said of the relationship between our two countries. Shanghai, of course, is a city that has great meaning in the history of the relationship between the United States and China. It was here, 37 years ago, that the Shanghai Communique opened the door to a new chapter of engagement between our governments and among our people. 而我们两国的关系也是如此,上海在美中关系的历史中是个具有意义的重大城市,在37年前,《上海公报》打开了我们两国政府和两国人民接触交往的新的篇章。 However, America's ties to this city -- and to this country -- stretch back further, to the earliest days of America's independence. In 1784, our founding father, George Washington, commissioned the Empress of China, a ship that set sail for these shores so that it could pursue trade with the Qing Dynasty. Washington wanted to see the ship carry the flag around the globe, and to forge new ties with nations like China. This is a common American impulse -- the desire to reach for new horizons, and to forge new partnerships that are mutually beneficial. 不过美国与这个国家的纽带可以追溯更久远的过去,追溯到美国独立的初期,乔治?华盛顿组织了皇后号的下水仪式,这个船成功前往大清王朝,华盛顿希望看到这艘船前往各地,与中国结成新的纽带。希望与中国开辟新的地平线,建立新的伙伴关系。 Over the two centuries that have followed, the currents of history have steered the relationship between our countries in many directions. And even in the midst of tumultuous winds, our people had opportunities to forge deep and even dramatic ties. For instance, Americans will never forget the hospitality shown to our pilots who were shot down over your soil during World War II, and cared for by Chinese civilians who risked all that they had by doing so. And Chinese veterans of that war still warmly greet those American veterans who return to the sites where they fought to help liberate China from occupation. 在其后的两个世纪中,历史洪流使我们两国关系向许多不同的方向发展,而即使在最动荡的方向中,我们的两国人民也打造了很深的,甚至有戏剧性的纽带,比如美国人永远不会忘记,在二战期间,美国飞行员在中国上空被击落后,当地人民对他们的款待,中国公民冒着失去一切的危险保护着他们。而参加二战的中国老兵仍然欢迎故地重游的美国老兵,他们在那里参战。 A different kind of connection was made nearly 40 years ago when the frost between our countries began to thaw through the simple game of table tennis. The very unlikely nature of this engagement contributed to its success -- because for all our differences, both our common humanity and our shared curiosity were revealed. As one American player described his visit to China -- "[The] people are just like us…The country is very similar to America, but still very different." Of course this small opening was followed by the achievement of the Shanghai Communique, and the eventual establishment of formal relations between the United States and China in 1979. And

奥巴马的英语演讲稿 想不想要知道那些名人的英语演讲稿?我特地为大家收集了几位名人的经典演讲稿,下面分享给大家。 刘慈欣英语演讲稿 Ladies and Gentleman, Good evening! It’s my great honor to receive the Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society. Thank you. This award is a reward for imagination. Imagination is a capability that should have exclusive belonged to God but we, as human beings, luckily have this too. It is far beyond our imagination to grasp the meaning of the existence of imagination. A historian used to say that the main reason why human beings have been able to surpass other species on earth and to build civilizations is that we are able to create something in our heads that does not exist in reality. In the future, when artificial intelligence becomes smarter than us, imagination may be the only advantage we have over AI. Science fiction is a literary genre based on imagination. And the first sci-fi works that impressed me were those by Arthur C. Clarke. Together with Jules Verne and George Wells,

奥巴马就职演讲稿(中英文)

My fellow citizens: 各位同胞: 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. 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 forbearers, and true to our founding documents. 四十四位美国人发表过总统就职誓言,这些誓词或是在繁荣富强及和平宁静之际发表,或是在乌云密布,时局动荡之时。在艰困的时候,美国能箕裘相继,不仅因为居高位者有能力或愿景,也因为人民持续对先人的抱负有信心,也忠于创建我国的法统。 So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans. 因此,美国才能承继下来。因此,这一代美国人必须承继下去。 That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet. 现在大家都知道我们正置身危机核心,我国正处于对抗深远暴力和憎恨的战争。我们的经济元气大伤,是某些人贪婪且不负责任的后果,也是大众未能做出艰难的选择,为国家进入新时代做淮备所致。许多人失去房子,丢了工作,生意垮了。我们的医疗照护太昂贵,学校教育辜负了许多人。每天都有更多证据显示,我们利用能源的方式壮大我们的对敌,威胁我们的星球。 These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights. 这些都是得自资料和统计数据的危机指标。比较无法测量但同样深沉的,是举国信心尽失—持续担心美国将无可避免地衰退,也害怕下一代一定会眼界变低。 Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met. 今天我要告诉各位,我们面临的挑战是真的,挑战非常严重,且不在少数。它们不是可以轻易,或在短时间内解决。但是,美国要了解,这些挑战会被解决。 On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

奥巴马英语演讲稿

奥巴马英语演讲稿 If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer. It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference. It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled - Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America. It's the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on

励志的短篇英文演讲稿-Never, Never Give Up

励志的短篇英文演讲稿:Never, Never Give Up 本文是关于励志的短篇英文演讲稿:Never, Never Give Up,仅供参考,希望对您有所帮助,感谢阅读。 励志短篇演讲稿:Never, Never Give Up we often hear people say, “never give up.” these can be encouraging words and words of determination. a person who believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. in my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. therefore, i believe that we should never give up. one reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. it is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. if we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. if we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities. in short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. furthermore, if we give up, we have non chance of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.

奥巴马开学演讲稿(全英文)

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 extra 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 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.
