2023年奥巴马开学演讲稿(精选多篇) 推荐第1篇:奥巴马开学演讲稿 奥巴马开学演讲稿(精选多篇) 奥巴马开学演讲稿。刚进学校时,她根本不会说英语,她住的地方几乎没人上过大学,她的父母也没有受过高等教育,但她努力学习,取得了优异的成绩,靠奖学金进入了布朗大学,如今正在攻读公共卫生专业的博士学位。我还想起了加利福尼亚州洛斯拉图斯市的安多尼?舒尔兹,他从三岁起就开始与脑癌病魔做斗争,他熬过了一次次治疗与手术其中一次影响了他的记忆,因此他得花出比常人多几百个小时的时间来完成学业,但他从不曾落下自己的功课。这个秋天,他要开始在大学读书了。 又比如在我的家乡,伊利诺斯州芝加哥市,身为孤儿的香特尔?史蒂夫换过 多次收养家庭,从小在治安很差的地区长大,但她努力争取到了在当地保健站工作的机会、发起了一个让青少年远离犯罪团伙的项目,很快,她也将以优异的成绩从中学毕业,去大学深造。 贾斯敏、安多尼和香特尔与你们并没有什么不同。和你们一样,他们也在生活中遭遇各种各样的困难与问题,但他们拒绝放弃,他们选择为自己的教育担起责任、给自己定下奋斗的目标。我希望你们中的每一个人,都能做得到这些。 因此,在今天,我号召你们每一个人都为自己的教育定下一个目标并在之后,尽自己的一切努力去实现它。你的目标可以很简单,像是完成作业、认真听讲或每天阅读或许你打算参加一些课外活动,或在社区做些志愿工作;或许你决定为那些因为长相或出身等等原因而受嘲弄或欺负的孩子做主、维护他们的权益,因为你和我一样,认为每个孩子都应该能有一个安全的学习 环境;或许你认为该学着更好的照顾自己,来为将来的学习做准备?当然,除此之外,我希望你们都多多洗手、感到身体不舒服的时候要多在家休息,免得大家在秋冬感冒高发季节都得流感。 不管你决定做什么,我都希望你能坚持到底,希望你能真的下定决心。我知道有些时候,电视上播放的节目会让你产生这样那样的错觉,似乎你不需要付出多大的努力就能腰缠万贯、功成名就你会认为只要会唱rap、会打篮球或参加个什么真人秀节目就能坐享其成,但现实是,你几乎没有可能走上其中任何一条道路。 因为,成功是件难事。你不可能对要读的每门课程都兴趣盎然,你不可能和每名带课教师都相处顺利,你也不可能每次都遇上看起来和现实生活有关的作业。而且,并不是每件事,你都能在头一次尝试时获得成功。 但那没有关系。因为在这个世界上,最最成功的人们往往也经历过最多 的失败。j.k.罗琳的第一本哈利·波特被出版商拒绝了十二次才最终出版;迈克尔·乔丹上高中时被学校的篮球队刷了下来,在他的职业生涯里,他输了几百场比赛、投失过几千次射篮,知道他是怎么说的吗?“我一生不停地失败、失败再失败,这就是我现在成功的原因。”他们的成功,源于他们明白人不能让失败左右自己而是要从中吸取经验。从失败中,你可以明白下一次自己可以做出怎样的改变;假如你惹了什么麻烦,那并不说明你就是个捣蛋贵,而是在提醒你,在将来要对自己有更严格的要求;假如你考了个低分,那并不说明你就比别人笨,而是在告诉你,自己得在学习上花更多的时间。 没有哪一个人一生出来就擅长做什么事情的,只有努力才能培养出技能。任何人都不是在第一次接触一项体育运动时就成为校队的代表,任何人都不是在第一次唱一首歌时就找准每一个音,一切都需要熟能生巧。对于学业也是一 样,你或许要反复运算才能解出一道数学题的正确答案,你或许需要读一段文字好几遍才能理解它的意思,你或许得把论文改上好几次才能符合提交的标准。这都是很正常的。 不要害怕提问。不要不敢向他人求助。我每天都在这么做。求助并不是软弱的表现,恰恰相反,它说明你有勇气承认自己的不足、并愿意去学习新的知识。所以,有不懂时,就向大人们求助吧找个你信得过的对象,例如父母、长辈、老师、教练或辅导员让他们帮助你向目标前进。 你要记住,哪怕你表现不好、哪怕你失去信心、哪怕你觉得身边的人都已经放弃了你永远不要自己放弃自己。因为当你放弃自己的时候,你也放弃了自己的国家。 美国不是一个人们遭遇困难就轻易放弃的国度,在这个国家,人们坚持到底、人们加倍努力,为了他们所热爱的国度,每一个人都尽着自己最大的努 力,不会给自己留任何余 地。250年前,有一群和你们一样的学生,他们之后奋起努力、用一场革命最终造就了这个国家;75年前,有一群和你们一样的学生,他们之后战胜了大萧条、赢得了二战;就在20年前,和你们一样的学生们,他们后来创立了google、twitter和facebook,改变了我们人与人之间沟通的方式。 因此,今天我想要问你们,你们会做出什么样的贡献?你们将解决什么样的难题?你们能发现什么样的事物?二 十、五十或百年之后,假如那时的美国总统也来做一次开学演讲的话,他会怎样描述你们对这个国家所做的一切? 你们的家长、你们的老师和我,每一个人都在尽最大的努力,确保你们都能得到应有的教育来回答这些问题。例如我正在努力为你们提供更安全的教室、更多的书籍、更先进的设施与计算机。但你们也要担起自己的责任。因此我要求你们在今年能够认真起来,我要 求你们尽心地去做自己着手的每一件事,我要求你们每一个人都有所成就。请不要让我们失望不要让你的家人、你的国家和你自己失望。你们要成为我们骄傲,我知道,你们一定可以做到。 谢谢大家,上帝保佑你们,上帝保佑美国。 听奥巴马的开学旧演讲 夏天过完了,新学年在世界各地开始了。近来,一段美国总统奥巴马发表的励志勉学演讲视频在国内一些网站和微博热传,不少人误以为是今年的新讲话,实则发表于2023年9月,是4年前的旧事了。 虽属陈年之调,听罢印象深刻,颇感意外。奥巴马做律师出身,口才出名的好,向来重视在演讲里安插“笑点”。但这番面向全美学生从刚进幼儿园的小孩到马上毕业的高中生,他虽然开场时笑容满面,却是越讲越严肃,最后简直到了说教的地步,一点也不讲究”和霭可亲”。 他讲的第一个小故事是自己的童 年经历。这位美国历史上的第一位黑人总统准确地说,是黑白混血,出身贫寒,在单亲家庭长大。6岁到10岁时,也即小学前四年,他跟妈妈住在印度尼西亚的首都雅加达。妈妈想让儿子接受美式教育,可又没钱送他进国际学校。怎么办?只有自己教,每天凌晨四点半就叫儿子起床读书,奥巴马抱怨辛苦,但妈妈“用那种表情看了他一眼”,回答说:“儿子,这对我也不是去野餐。” 这是第一个意外。快乐教育在国内,这些年来被反复提倡;给中小学生减负,更是年年热议的话题。但这位美国总统居然一字不提上学的乐趣,反倒大谈他小时候在家上“课外班”的辛苦,对“虎妈教育”表现出赞美和怀念之情,这算怎么回事? 接下来的演讲内容,更加让人意外且感慨丛生。归纳起来,奥巴马总共不到20分钟的演讲,只有两大主旨。第一,学生要承担对自己的责任。第二,学生要承担对国家的责任。而在求学阶段,如何承担 责任?答案就一个:好好学习。 奥巴马说,政府、学校和父母家庭,固然有责任为孩子创造良好的受教育机会和环境,但归根结底,学习是学生自己的责任。“哪怕一切都达到最好,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,那么这些努力都会白费。”他强调,读好书不容易,成功也是件难事。学生总会受到各种干扰,包括社区安全和交友不慎,但“归根结底,你的生活状况,你的长相、出身、经济条件、家庭氛围,都不是疏忽学业和态度恶劣的借口,不是跟老师顶嘴、逃课或辍学的借口,不是不好好读书的借口。”接下来,用了大约三分之一的演讲时间,奥巴马大谈报国。把学生是否好好学习,上升到影响国家迎接未来重大挑战的能力的高度。他说:“假如你放弃学习,那么你不仅是放弃了自己,也是放弃了你的国家。”“我要求你们每一个人都有所成就,请不要让我们失望?不要让你的家人、你的国家和你自己失望。你们要成 为我们的骄傲。” 这些年来,身边家长谈孩子教育,最高境界也不过就是鼓励孩子发展爱好,不用分数来压迫孩子,重视孩子的情商成长。但是,虽然梁启超的少年中国说入选了中学课本,“五四”一代“为中华崛起而读书”的声音,在家长圈和学校的家长会上,却鲜见提起。 刻苦、负责、为国家的富强读书,这与给中小学生减负并不矛盾。因为减负的目的在于提高教育质量而非其他。姑且不论在未改变考试教育机制的情况下,“减负”的实效;如果一个社会的教育,从家长到老师,过度强调孩子的“钱”途,或许孩子拥有同样的学习动力,但怎能指望未来的社会栋梁,能够少些自私,多些自律;少些功利,多些理想;少些戾气,多些温暖? 推荐第2篇:奥巴马开学演讲稿 奥巴马开学演讲稿 Wakefield High School Arlington, Virginia THE PRESIDENT: 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 acro 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 leons 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 discu 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 unle all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unle you show up to those schools, unle you pay attention to those teachers, unle 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 cla paper that's aigned 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 cla.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 le 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 homelene, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.You'll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your claes 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 mied having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn't fit in. So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been on school, and I did some things I'm not proud of, and I got in more trouble than I should have.And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse. But I was - I was lucky.I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.My wife, our First Lady Michelle Obama, she has a similar story.Neither of her parents had gone to college, and they didn't have a lot of money.But they worked hard, and she worked hard, so that she could go to the best schools in this country. Some of you might not have those advantages.Maybe you don't have adults in your life who give you the support that you need.Maybe someone in your family has lost their job and there's not enough money to go around.Maybe you live in a neighborhood where you don't feel safe, or have friends who are preuring 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 cla, 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 acro 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 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 cla, 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 succeful without any hard work - that your ticket to succe 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 succeful is hard.You won't love every subject that you study.You won't click with every teacher that you have.Not every homework aignment will seem completely relevant to your life right at this minute.And you won't necearily succeed at everything the first time you try. That's okay.Some of the most succeful 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 mied thousands of shots during his career.But he once said, "I have failed over and over an
