Madam President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, faculty, family, friends, and, most importantly, today's graates,
尊敬的Faust校長,哈佛集團的各位成員,監管理事會的各位理事,各位老師,各位家長,各位朋友,以及最重要的各位畢業生同學,
Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you.
感謝你們,讓我有機會同你們一起分享這個美妙的日子。
I am not sure I can live up to the high standards of Harvard Commencement speakers. Last year, J.K. Rowling, the billionaire novelist, who started as a classics student, graced this podium. The year before, Bill Gates, the mega-billionaire philanthropist and computer nerd stood here. Today, sadly, you have me. I am not a billionaire, but at least I am a nerd.
我不太肯定,自己夠得上哈佛大學畢業典禮演講人這樣的殊榮。去年登上這個講台的是,英國億萬身家的小說家J.K. Rowling女士,她最早是一個古典文學的學生。前年站在這里的是比爾•蓋茨先生,他是一個超級富翁、一個慈善家和電腦高手。今年很遺憾,你們的演講人是我,雖然我不是很有錢,但是至少我也算一個高手。
I am grateful to receive an honorary degree from Harvard, an honor that means more to me than you might care to imagine. You see, I was the academic black sheep of my family. My older brother has an M.D./Ph.D. from MIT and Harvard while my younger brother has a law degree from Harvard. When I was awarded a Nobel Prize, I thought my mother would be pleased. Not so. When I called her on the morning of the announcement, she replied, "That's nice, but when are you going to visit me next." Now, as the last brother with a degree from Harvard, maybe, at last, she will be satisfied.
我很感激哈佛大學給我榮譽學位,這對我很重要,也許比你們會想到的還要重要。要知道,在學術上,我是我們家的不肖之子。我的哥哥在麻省理工學院得到醫學博士,在哈佛大學得到哲學博士;我的弟弟在哈佛大學得到一個法律學位。我本人得到諾貝爾獎的時候,我想我的媽媽會高興。但是,我錯了。消息公布的那天早上,我給她打電話,她聽了只說:"這是好消息,不過我想知道,你下次什麼時候來看我?"如今在我們兄弟當中,我最終也拿到了哈佛學位,我想這一次,她會感到滿意。
Another difficulty with giving a Harvard commencement address is that some of you may disapprove of the fact that I have borrowed material from previous speeches. I ask that you forgive me for two reasons.
在哈佛大學畢業典禮上發表演講,還有一個難處,那就是你們中有些人可能有意見,不喜歡我重復前人演講中說過的話。我要求你們諒解我,因為兩個理由。
First, in order to have impact, it is important to deliver the same message more than once. In science, it is important to be the first person to make a discovery, but it is even more important to be the last person to make that discovery.
首先,為了產生影響力,很重要的方法就是重復傳遞同樣的信息。在科學中,第一個發現者是重要的,但是在得到公認前,最後一個將這個發現重復做出來的人也許更重要。
Second, authors who borrow from others are following in the footsteps of the best. Ralph Waldo Emerson, who graated from Harvard at the age of 18, noted "All my best thoughts were stolen by the ancients." Picasso declared "Good artists borrow. Great artists steal." Why should commencement speakers be held to a higher standard?
其次,一個借鑒他人的作者,正走在一條前人開辟的最佳道路上。哈佛大學畢業生、詩人愛默生曾經寫下:"古人把我最好的一些思想都偷走了。"畫家畢加索宣稱"優秀的藝術家借鑒,偉大的藝術家偷竊。"那麼為什麼畢業典禮的演說者,就不適用同樣的標准呢?
I also want to point out the irony of speaking to graates of an institution that would have rejected me, had I the chutzpah to apply. I am married to "Dean Jean," the former dean of admissions at Stanford. She assures me that she would have rejected me, if given the chance. When I showed her a draft of this speech, she objected strongly to my use of the word "rejected." She never rejected applicants; her letters stated that "we are unable to offer you admission." I have difficulty understanding the difference. After all, deans of admissions of highly selective schools are in reality, "deans of rejection." Clearly, I have a lot to learn about marketing.
我還要指出一點,向哈佛畢業生發表演說,對我來說是有諷刺意味的,因為如果當年我斗膽向哈佛大學遞交入學申請,一定會被拒絕。我的妻子Jean當過斯坦福大學的招生主任,她向我保證,如果當年我申請斯坦福大學,她會拒絕我。我把這篇演講的草稿給她過目,她強烈反對我使用"拒絕"這個詞,她從來不拒絕任何申請者。在拒絕信中,她總是寫:"我們無法提供你入學機會。"我分不清兩者到底有何差別。在我看來,那些大熱門學校的招生主任與其稱為"准許你入學的主任",還不如稱為"拒絕你入學的主任"。很顯然,我需要好好學學怎麼來推銷自己。
My address will follow the classical sonata form of commencement addresses. The first movement, just presented, were light-hearted remarks. This next movement consists of unsolicited advice, which is rarely valued, seldom remembered, never followed. As Oscar Wilde said, "The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself." So, here comes the advice. First, every time you celebrate an achievement, be thankful to those who made it possible. Thank your parents and friends who supported you, thank your professors who were inspirational, and especially thank the other professors whose less-than-brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. Going forward, the ability to teach yourself is the hallmark of a great liberal arts ecation and will be the key to your success. To your fellow students who have added immeasurably to your ecation ring those late night discussions, hug them. Also, of course, thank Harvard. Should you forget, there's an alumni association to remind you. Second, in your future life, cultivate a generous spirit. In all negotiations, don't bargain for the last, little advantage. Leave the change on the table. In your collaborations, always remember that "credit" is not a conserved quantity. In a successful collaboration, everybody gets 90 percent of the credit.
畢業典禮演講都遵循古典奏鳴曲的結構,我的演講也不例外。剛才是第一樂章----輕快的閑談。接下來的第二樂章是送上門的忠告。這樣的忠告很少被重視,幾乎註定被忘記,永遠不會被實踐。但是,就像王爾德說的:"對於忠告,你所能做的,就是把它送給別人,因為它對你沒有任何用處。"所以,下面就是我的忠告。第一,取得成就的時候,不要忘記前人。要感謝你的父母和支持你的朋友,要感謝那些啟發過你的教授,尤其要感謝那些上不好課的教授,因為他們迫使你自學。從長遠看,自學能力是優秀的文理教育中必不可少的,將成為你成功的關鍵。你還要去擁抱你的同學,感謝他們同你進行過的許多次徹夜長談,這為你的教育帶來了無法衡量的價值。當然,你還要感謝哈佛大學。不過即使你忘了這一點,校友會也會來提醒你。第二,在你們未來的人生中,做一個慷慨大方的人。在任何談判中,都把最後一點點利益留給對方。不要把桌上的錢都拿走。在合作中,要牢記榮譽不是一個守恆的量。成功合作的任何一方,都應獲得全部榮譽的90%。
Jimmy Stewart, as Elwood P. Dowd in the movie "Harvey" got it exactly right. He said: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be ... she always used to call me Elwood ... in this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.'" Well, for years I was smart. ... I recommend pleasant. You may quote me on that.
電影《Harvey》中,Jimmy Stewart扮演的角色Elwood P. Dowd,就完全理解這一點。他說:"多年前,母親曾經對我說,'Elwood,活在這個世界上,你要麼做一個聰明人,要麼做一個好人。'"我做聰明人,已經做了好多年了。......但是,我推薦你們做好人。你們可以引用我這句話。
My third piece of advice is as follows: As you begin this new stage of your lives, follow your passion. If you don't have a passion, don't be satisfied until you find one. Life is too short to go through it without caring deeply about something. When I was your age, I was incredibly single-minded in my goal to be a physicist. After college, I spent eight years as a graate student and postdoc at Berkeley, and then nine years at Bell Labs. During that my time, my central focus and professional joy was physics.
我的第三個忠告是,當你開始生活的新階段時,請跟隨你的愛好。如果你沒有愛好,就去找,找不到就不罷休。生命太短暫,如果想有所成,你必須對某樣東西傾注你的深情。我在你們這個年齡,是超級的一根筋,我的目標就是非成為物理學家不可。本科畢業後,我在加州大學伯克利分校又待了8年,讀完了研究生,做完了博士後,然後去貝爾實驗室待了9年。在這些年中,我關注的中心和職業上的全部樂趣,都來自物理學。
Here is my final piece of advice. Pursuing a personal passion is important, but it should not be your only goal. When you are old and gray, and look back on your life, you will want to be proud of what you have done. The source of that pride won't be the things you have acquired or the recognition you have received. It will be the lives you have touched and the difference you have made.
我還有最後一個忠告,就是說興趣愛好固然重要,但是你不應該只考慮興趣愛好。當你白發蒼蒼、垂垂老矣、回首人生時,你需要為自己做過的事感到自豪。你的物質生活和得到的承認,都不會產生自豪。只有那些你出手相助、被你改變過的人和事,才會讓你產生自豪。
After nine years at Bell labs, I decided to leave that warm, cozy ivory tower for what I considered to be the "real world," a university. Bell Labs, to quote what was said about Mary Poppins, was "practically perfect in every way," but I wanted to leave behind something more than scientific articles. I wanted to teach and give birth to my own set of scientific children.
在貝爾實驗室待了9年後,我決定離開這個溫暖舒適的象牙塔,走進我眼中的"真實世界"----大學。我對貝爾實驗室的看法,就像別人形容電影Mary Poppins的話,"實際上完美無缺"。但是,我想為世界留下更多的東西,不只是科學論文。我要去教書,培育我自己在科學上的後代。
Ted Geballe, a friend and distinguished colleague of mine at Stanford, who also went from Berkeley to Bell Labs to Stanford years earlier, described our motives best:
我在斯坦福大學有一個好友兼傑出同事Ted Geballe。他也是從伯克利分校去了貝爾實驗室,幾年前又離開貝爾實驗室去了斯坦福大學。他對我們的動機做出了最佳描述:
"The best part of working at a university is the students. They come in fresh, enthusiastic, open to ideas, unscarred by the battles of life. They don't realize it, but they're the recipients of the best our society can offer. If a mind is ever free to be creative, that's the time. They come in believing textbooks are authoritative, but eventually they figure out that textbooks and professors don't know everything, and then they start to think on their own. Then, I begin learning from them."
"在大學工作,最大的優點就是學生。他們生機勃勃,充滿熱情,思想自由,還沒被生活的重壓改變。雖然他們自己沒有意識到,但是他們是這個社會中你能找到的最佳受眾。如果生命中曾經有過思想自由和充滿創造力的時期,那麼那個時期就是你在讀大學。進校時,學生們對課本上的一字一句毫不懷疑,漸漸地,他們發現課本和教授並不是無所不知的,於是他們開始獨立思考。從那時起,就是我開始向他們學習了。"
My students, post doctoral fellows, and the young researchers who worked with me at Bell Labs, Stanford, and Berkeley have been extraordinary. Over 30 former group members are now professors, many at the best research institutions in the world, including Harvard. I have learned much from them. Even now, in rare moments on weekends, the remaining members of my biophysics group meet with me in the ether world of cyberspace.
我教過的學生、帶過的博士後、合作過的年輕同事,都非常優秀。他們中有30多人,現在已經是教授了。他們所在的研究機構有不少是全世界第一流的,其中就包括哈佛大學。我從他們身上學到了很多東西。即使現在,我偶爾還會周末上網,向現在還從事生物物理學研究的學生請教。
I began teaching with the idea of giving back; I received more than I gave. This brings me to the final movement of this speech. It begins with a story about an extraordinary scientific discovery and a new dilemma that it poses. It's a call to arms and about making a difference.
我懷著回報社會的想法,開始了教學生涯。我的一生中,得到的多於我付出的,所以我要回報社會。這就引出了這次演講的最後一個樂章。首先我要講一個了不起的科學發現,以及由此帶來的新挑戰。它是一個戰斗的號令,到了做出改變的時候了。
③ 大學生演講與口才協會舉辦什麼活動好呢
即興演講!我就組織過2次,對自己的收獲也很大!先組織很多油豐富閱歷的人,在一起討論很多的題目!(注意保密)
比賽時,讓選手自己抽題目!臨時發揮,規定一定的時間(我們那時是20分鍾),第一次不要太長的時間,20--30分鍾就很長了!同時也限制參賽人數,(你們可以先在協會里自己組織,而後只要學生組織,最後面對全體學生)效果很好,記得還有有 評委,嘉賓,主持人......
如果氣氛緊張了 你還可以加入幾個互動的小游戲!緩解氣氛!
還有總的比賽時間 你也要控制好,
如有需要我這里還有一些資料可以 借閱!
④ 大學演講與口才協會是干什麼的
就是一個興趣協會,在這里會組織很多演講活動,鍛煉會員的口才,提升演講能力。還是挺不錯的,但是需要你有這方面的興趣或者想在這方面有發展才行。
⑤ 為什麼美國著名大學會邀請名人來做畢業典禮演講
邀請名人做畢業典禮的演講,一個是能增加學生的一個見識,另外也能擴大學校的一個影響力。
⑥ 求美國一個大學生的演講視頻
你是為了模仿還是其他學習目的,若只是覺得他們說的很有藝術、演講很有彈性不如去看看奧巴馬的每一次演講(比如兩次就職演講)
⑦ 愛默生在美國大學發表了什麼演講
1837年,他在美國大學生聯誼會上發表了《論美國學者》的演講,宣布美國文學已脫離英國文學而獨立,同時強調人的價值,被譽為美國精神領域的「獨立宣言」。
⑧ 大學生演講與辯論協會的學長學姐在嗎
演講是一個人淋漓盡致的發揮
辯論是一群人隨心所欲的表達 以達到擊敗對手的目的
它們都是在展示語言的藝術
但它們又有明顯的不同之處
前者需要聆聽 後者需要智慧
寫出它們的不同 道出它們的相同
識其魅力 破其奧秘 一切盡在聲音的靈動中
