6、度尼西亚住过几年。我妈妈没钱送我去其他美国孩子们上学的地方去读书,因而她决定本人给我上课时间是每周一到周五的凌晨4点半。Now,asyoumightimagine,Iwasnttoohappyaboutgettingupthatearly.Andalotoftimes,Idfallasleeprightthereatthekitchentable.ButwheneverIdcomplain,mymotherwouldjustgivemeoneofthoselooksandshedsay,Thisisnopicnicformeeither,buster.(Laughter.)显然,我不怎么喜欢那

8、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。Now,Ivegivenalotofspeechesabouteducation.AndIvetalkedaboutresponsibilityalot.我做过很多关于教育的讲话,也经常用到“责任这个词。Ivetalkedaboutteachersresponsibilityforinspiringstudentsandpushingyoutolearn.我谈到过老师们有责任鼓励和启迪你们,催促你们学习。Ivetalkedaboutyourparentsre

10、rking,wherestudentsarentgettingtheopportunitiesthattheydeserve.我也很屡次谈到过政府有责任设定高标准严要求、协助教师和校长们的工作,改变在有些学校里学生得不到应有的学习时机的现状。Butattheendoftheday,wecanhavethemostdedicatedteachers,themostsupportiveparents,thebestschoolsintheworld-andnoneofitwillmakeadifference,noneofitwillmatterunlessallofyoufulfillyourr

12、责任的话,那么这一切努力都会空费。除非你天天准时去上学、除非你认真地听教师讲课、除非你把父母、长辈和其他大人们讲的话放在心上、除非你肯付出成功所必需的努力,否则这一切都会失去意义。Iwanttostartwiththeresponsibilityyouhavetoyourself.Everysingleoneofyouhassomethingthatyouregoodat.Everysingleoneofyouhassomethingtooffer.Andyouhavearesponsibilitytoyourselftodiscoverwhatthatis.Thatstheopportuni
13、tyaneducationcanprovide.而这就是我今天讲话的主题:对于本人的教育,你们中每一个人的责任。首先,我想谈谈你们对于本人有什么责任。你们中的每一个人都会有本人擅于的东西,每一个人都是有用之材,而发现本人的才能是什么,就是你们要对本人担起的责任。教育给你们提供了发现本人才能的时机。Maybeyoucouldbeagreatwriter-maybeevengoodenoughtowriteabookorarticlesinanewspaper-butyoumightnotknowituntilyouwritethatEnglishpaper-thatEnglishclasspap

17、你想成为护士、成为建筑设计师、律师或军人?无论你选择哪一种职业,良好的教育都必不可少,这世上不存在不把书念完就能拿到好工作的美梦,任何工作,都需要你的汗水、训练与学习。Andthisisntjustimportantforyourownlifeandyourownfuture.Whatyoumakeofyoureducationwilldecidenothinglessthanthefutureofthiscountry.ThefutureofAmericadependsonyou.Whatyourelearninginschooltodaywilldeterminewhetherweasan

21、itonschool-yourenotjustquittingonyourself,yourequittingonyourcountry.我们需要你们中的每一个人都培养和发展本人的天赋、技能和才智,来解决我们所面对的最困难的问题。假设你不这么做假设你放弃学习那么你不仅是放弃了本人,也是放弃了你的国家。Now,Iknowitsnotalwayseasytodowellinschool.Iknowalotofyouhavechallengesinyourlivesrightnowthatcanmakeithardtofocusonyourschoolwork.当然,我明白,读好书并不总是件容易的事
