國外大學(xué)的畢業(yè)典禮上,邀請名人做畢業(yè)演講是一項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng)。美國前總統(tǒng)比爾克林頓、蘋果創(chuàng)始人喬布斯、哈利波特作者J.K羅琳等都曾是美國各大高校的座上賓。給畢業(yè)生的演講內(nèi)容廣泛,不過通常會包含著一些期望與祝福,當(dāng)然也不乏幽默與睿智。 現(xiàn)在,就讓我們一起去聽聽看他們的精彩演講吧!

1. 【大腕兒愛演講】克林頓2010年耶魯畢業(yè)演講>>

"One problem we have in the modern world is, we've got access to more information than ever before, but we don't all listen to the same information." 克林頓在演講中鼓勵畢業(yè)生們多聽取自己不認(rèn)同的意見,并稱我們這個時代的問題在于我們擁有過量的信息,卻不知應(yīng)該相信哪一種。

2. 【大腕兒愛演講】比爾蓋茨2007年哈佛畢業(yè)演講>>

比爾蓋茨從哈佛輟學(xué)的事情基本“地球人都知道”了。2007年,他以52歲的年紀(jì)出席哈佛畢業(yè)典禮并發(fā)表演講。在演講中他以一句"I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: 'Dad, I always told you I’d come back and get my degree.'"開頭,引得全場大笑。

3. 【大腕愛演講】蘋果總裁喬布斯的斯坦福演講>>

喬布斯也是從名校Reed College半路輟學(xué),白手起家的IT奇才。2005年,他在斯坦福大學(xué)發(fā)表畢業(yè)演講,通過三個小故事簡單回顧了自己的成功歷程。這篇演講堪稱畢業(yè)演講中的經(jīng)典,其中有很多發(fā)人深省的段子。摘錄一小段、和大家共勉:

“ Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

4.【大腕愛演講】哈利波特作者JK羅琳的哈佛演講>>

魔法教母、《哈利波特》作者J.K羅琳2008年在哈佛大學(xué)發(fā)表畢業(yè)演講。她在演講中回顧了自己青年時期困苦卻意義非凡的經(jīng)歷,稱自己從失敗中學(xué)到了成功。她引用哲學(xué)家塞內(nèi)加的名言送給畢業(yè)生:

“As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.”

5. 【大腕愛演講】脫口秀主持Ellen的爆笑演講>>

Ellen DeGeneres是美國當(dāng)紅的脫口秀節(jié)目主持。以她自己名字命名的節(jié)目Ellen Show收視率居高不下,她還成功主持過第38和39屆格萊美、第46屆艾美等頒獎禮。她在杜蘭大學(xué)的演講延續(xù)了自己的幽默風(fēng)格,在笑聲中也回顧了自己的 成長,并給畢業(yè)學(xué)生們以誠懇的建議:

"For me, the most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity, and not to give into peer pressure, to try to be something that you're not. To live your life as an honest and compassionate person, to contribute in some way. "

6. 【大腕愛演講】美國駐華大使洪博培在清華大學(xué)的演講>>

2010年3月18日,美國駐華大使洪博培(Jon Huntsman)訪問清華大學(xué),并做客清華海外名師講堂,就中美關(guān)系發(fā)表了演講。洪博培大使在演講中把中美關(guān)系比作年輕人約會,幽默詼諧,耐人尋味。

DTR is American slang for “define the relationship.”. So in America when two kids are dating, and I’m not going to ask John to come up and describe his experiences, someone will always expect something of the other. Where is the relationship going? Are we going to get married? Are you going to introduce me to your parents?

7. 【大腕兒愛演講】美能源部長朱棣文哈佛畢業(yè)演講>>

華裔美物理學(xué)家朱棣文2009年在哈佛大學(xué)發(fā)表畢業(yè)演講。朱棣文出身于華人家庭,成長于美國社會這個大熔爐,鑄就了朱棣文既含蓄文雅,又頗具美式幽默的演講風(fēng)格,大家不妨一起來模仿一下摘錄的部分吧!

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."
