Every era has its defining struggle and the fate of Africa is one of ours. It's not the only one, but in the history books it's easily going to make the top five--what we did or what we did not do. It's a proving ground, as I said earlier, for the idea of equality. But whether it's this or something else, I hope you'll pick a fight and get in it. Get your boots dirty. Get rough. Steel your courge with a final drink there at Smoky Joe's, one last primal scream and go.
每一個時代都有其特定的斗爭使命，而我們的一個使命就是改變非洲的命運。這不是我們的使命，但無論是對我們已經(jīng)解決的或尚未解決的困難來說，這都會很容易被歷史列為五大挑戰(zhàn)之一。正如我之前說過的，非洲是平等理念的試驗場。不管是什么原因，我都希望你們掀起這場斗爭并為之奮斗。去感受苦難，去磨練你們的意志，在斯莫基喬酒吧再飲上最后一杯，大喊一聲，然后踏上征程，去錘煉你們的意志吧。
Sing the melody line you hear in your own head. Remember, you don't owe anybody any explanations. You don't owe your parents any explanations. You don't owe your professors any explanations. You know, I used to think that the future was solid, or fixed, or something you inherited like an old building that you move into when the previous generation moves out or gets chased out. But it's not. The future is not fixed. It's fluid. You can build your own buildings, or hut or condo, whatever. This is the metaphor part of the speech by the way.
唱出你心中最美的樂曲!記住，你無須向任何人解釋，你無須向父母做出解釋，你也無須向你的教授做出任何解釋。我曾經(jīng)認為未來是注定的，一成不變的，就像繼承一座老房子，上一代搬出去或被逐出去，你們就可以搬進去。但事實并非如此。未來并非一成不變，而是可以改變的。你們可以建造自己的大樓或小棚子或公寓。順便說一下，這只是今天致辭中的暗喻。
But my point is that the world is more malleable than you think and it's waiting for you to hammer it into shape. Now if I were a folksinger I'd immediately launch into "If I Had a Hammer" right now, get you all singing and swaying. But as I say I come from punk rock, so I'd rather have the bloody hammer right here in my fist. That's what this degree of yours is, a blunt instrument. So go forth and build something with it. And remember what John Adams said about Ben Franklin, "He does not hestitate at our boldest measures but rather seems to think us too irresolute."
但我要說的是，世界比你們想象的更具可塑性，它正等待著你們把它塑造成形?，F(xiàn)在，如果我是一名民間歌手，我就會立即開始唱《假如我有一把鐵錘》，帶領(lǐng)你們一起唱，一起跳。但如我所言，我是朋克樂隊的一名歌手，我寧愿手中握著一把帶血的鐵錘。你們的學位不過算是一把不算鋒利的武器，所以，向前沖吧!用它去鑄造未來!記住約翰·亞當對本·富蘭克林的評價：“對于我們最勇敢的行動，他毫不猶豫地響應(yīng)，而且似乎認為我們過于優(yōu)柔寡斷了?！?/p>
Well this is the time for bold measures. And this is the country. And you are the generation. Thank you. Thank you very much.
現(xiàn)在是大膽去行動的時候了，就在這個國家，就是你們這一代，大膽地去行動吧!謝謝大家!非常感謝。
Life，there are three stages — youth，middle age and old age，which is the most precious youth，this period any move will affect the later life，so to speak，adolescence is the foundation of life，the success of future generations is built on this foundation. Have such a book，it says the adolescent age is 13 to 19 year old boy. Carefully thought，(you certainly refers to the students. Are standing on the starting point of a person.
Also said that the book is adolescence has a warm，vigorous can make their own youth，can to some details，sad cry，this is our，happy and do not break composed，impulse and do not break a shrine. Starting on，write a diary，when I grow up one day，one of an adult calm state of mind to see it again，maybe you will be moved to cry，may laugh along while，may do a lot of action，because this is we have youth，beautiful like a dream，happy，like fairy，simple like a leaf，in social this big tree researched under his shade，hot outside has nothing to do with us，we just separated out my own piece of the woods，radiation with his cool and refreshing，but we will feel sorry，because we miss too many opportunities，also failed too much，that is our，happy，may not understand to cherish，simple us. If gave up during this period，the future will be dim light，in the mountains there are so many children to read，as long as some pens，a book and a house can have a class，has no other desire，if we are with them in class，I dare not say we are the children in the city how much stronger than they，perhaps we might as well be "wild child" of these in our eyes，because only a person lost will be more know to cherish，coloured drawing or pattern is more seriously in the face of everything.
For us，after the third day of the examination is a barrier，is very important for us is very serious thing，can take an examination of to a good high school?Can have a good high school life?This is now all doubt there are many people around us，but a loser，is can't afford to defeat the loser，perhaps is a failure，let their cold hearts，they can't make a loss. Maybe they had tried，regret，but too late，discarded after don't come back，actually everybody's strength is similar，just lack of effort and confidence，believe your own power，lost nothing，but can't afford to lose momentum，even if the failure of the end let you stand up，not lying to life，there is at least a fighting，later remembered wouldn't be so sorry，so timid，do not regret it，is belongs to our youth，because when let our master，come on，perhaps，victory come from

人生，有3個階段—青春，中年，老年，而這些當中最珍貴的就是青春，這一時期的任何舉動都會影響后期的生活，可以說，青春期是人生的基礎(chǔ)，后世的成功是建立在這個基礎(chǔ)上的.有這樣一本書，上面說青春期的年齡層是13—19歲的少年.細細一想，大家(當然指同學啦.)都是站在起點的人了.
那本書還說，人是青春期有一股熱情，可以讓自己的青春變的轟轟烈烈，可以為了一些細節(jié)，感傷的哭，這就是我們，快樂而不失沉穩(wěn)，沖動而不失感懷.從先在起，寫一本日記，長大后的某一天，一一個大人的平靜心態(tài)去看一遍，也許你會感動得哭出來，也許會大笑半天，也許會做很多動作，因為這是我們曾經(jīng)的青春，美好的像夢一樣，快樂像仙人一樣，樸實得像一樹葉，在社會這片大樹下辟出自己的樹陰，外面的炎熱與我們無關(guān)，我們只隔出自己的那片綠陰，放射著自己清涼，但我們會惋惜，因為我們放過了太多機遇，也失敗了太多，這，就是我們，幸福的，不得懂珍惜的，淳樸的我們.在這個時期如果放棄了努力，那么前途會渺茫無光，在山區(qū)有那么多的孩子渴望讀書，只要一本書一些筆，還有一間可以上課的房子，別無他求，如果我們和他們一起上課，我不敢說我們這些城里的小孩比他們強多少，也許我們還不如這些我們眼中的“野孩子”強，因為只有失去過的人才會更加懂得珍惜，彩繪更加認真地面對每件事.
對于我們來說，初三后的中考就是一道坎，一件對于我們很重要很嚴肅的事情，能考到好高中嗎?能有一個美好的高中生活嗎?這是現(xiàn)在所有人的疑問我們周圍有許多人，中卻的說是失敗者，是敗不起的失敗者，也許是一次的失敗，讓他們寒了心，造就了一敗不起的他們.也許他們曾經(jīng)努力過，懊悔過，但來不及了，丟棄了就追不回來，其實每個人的實力都是相似的，只是缺了努力和信心，相信自己的力量，失敗了沒什么，但不能失去銳氣，就算結(jié)局的失敗讓你站不起來，也不至于躺著輸給生活，至少還有一次拼搏，以后再想起就不會這么遺憾，這么窩囊，不要留下遺憾，折實屬于我們的青春，因當讓我們自己主宰，加油吧，也許，勝利由此而來.
Everyone has their own dreams，I am no exception. This is my dream for five years. I grew up love swimming，correct posture，swim fast，heard a lot of praise，some said to I taught them to swim!From then on，the dream was born，so I keep practice every day......
My effort is to one day be able to not only when athletes，in the crowd watching right now I get a medal of that a moment，but also for the motherland proud!I'm from grade one to grade five dream still has not changed. I still love swimming，fierce war still admire the sports meeting of the athletes;Still admire the moment they get prize excited and happy. I hope one day I can and all as they walked onto the stage，looking forward to fierce applause，I am looking forward to. These，for the past five years，there is no change.
I love swimming，I once thought："the power of a dream is so large，can pay all costs for dreams，sometimes I am not afraid of hard work，because I've heard a word" I want to do must do our best to finish it，"this is my motto in life." I'm looking forward to the podium on the excitement and joy of a moment，so I will do my best efforts，on their own strength，to complete my dream，this is me. I look forward to the return of my success.
In order to dream，come rain or shine，I still hold this dream，will not change forever......
每個人都會有自己的夢想，我也不例外.這是我堅守了五年的夢想了.我從小愛游泳，姿勢正確，游得快，聽過不少贊言，還有人說要我教她們游泳呢!從此這個夢誕生了，于是我堅持每天練習……
我努力不僅是為了有一天能當上運動員，在眾人的眼下觀看著我領(lǐng)取獎牌的那一刻，而且也是為了給祖國爭光!我從一年級到五年級的夢想依然沒有改變.我依然熱愛游泳，依然仰慕著運動會上激烈戰(zhàn)爭的運動員們;依然仰慕她們拿獎的那一刻的激動與快樂.我盼望我有一天能和她們一樣走上舞臺、盼望眾人激烈的掌聲，我盼望著……這些、五年來，依然沒有改變.
我愛游泳，我曾想過：“夢想的力量是如此的巨大，有時可以為夢想付出一切代價，我不怕辛苦，因為我聽過一句話“自己想要做到的事就一定要盡自己的最大的努力去完成它”這就是我人生的格言.”我期待著站上領(lǐng)獎臺上的那一刻的激動與快樂，因此我要盡自己最大的努力、靠自己的實力，去完成我的夢想，這就是我.我期待著我成功的到來.
為了夢想，風雨無阻，我依然堅守這個夢想，不會改變，直到永遠……

I enter tile university after years of hard study and preparation. But life in the university is not as satisfactory as what I had expected. I become lazy and don't want to study.I become silcent. I become puzzled. I don't know what I can do in the future. Then I become unhappy.
Four years in the university is only a short period when compared my whole lifetime. Now it has passed a half. In this year, many people ,such as my parents,my friends, ask me what I want to do and tell me to map out a plan for my life. I don't want to follow their suggestion, and I want to go my style. So I think carefully. I have been a young volunteer(志愿者) for five years.It's very happy and significant. Then I have a dream.I want to join the University Student Volunteers Go West Programe. I think I can be a teacher in the west.I want to try my best to help them and help me. I want to see the world cearly. Now I can't reach its demand and it's very diffcult,but I will work hard in the next two years. There is an old saying"where there is a will,there is a way.(有志者事竟成)"I think my dream can come ture.Now in the university I mature,and in the university I prepare for the real world.
At last,I want to say to everybody"Hlod fast to your dreams,no matter how big or small they are.The path to dreams may not be smooth and wide,even some sacrifices are needed.But hold on to the end,you can find there is no geater happiness than making your dream come ture."

我進入瓦大學經(jīng)過多年的艱苦學習和準備。但大學的生活并不像我所期望的那樣令人滿意。我變得懶惰，不想學習。我成為silcent。我變得困惑。我不知道我將來能做什么。然后我變得不快樂。
四年在大學只是一個短暫的時間相比，我的一生?，F(xiàn)在已經(jīng)過去了一半。在這一年里，許多人，如我的父母，我的朋友，問我想做什么，并告訴我制定一個計劃，我的生活。我不想按照他們的建議，我想去我的風格。所以我仔細地思考。我是一個年輕的志愿者(志愿者)五年。很高興和意義。然后我有一個夢想，我想加入大學生志愿者去西部計劃。我想我可以成為一名在西方的老師，我想盡力幫助他們，幫助我。我想清楚地看世界?，F(xiàn)在我不能達到其要求，這是非常困難的，但我會在接下來的兩年的努力。俗話說：“凡有意愿，有辦法。(有志者事竟成)“我想我的夢想可以成真?，F(xiàn)在在大學我成熟了，在大學我準備真實的世界。
最后，我想對大家說“緊緊地抓住你的夢想，不管他們多么大或小。夢想的道路不可能一帆風順和廣泛，甚至一些犧牲是必要的，但到最后，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)沒有大的幸福比讓你的夢想成真。
