篇一：奥巴马演讲稿 全
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 discuss 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 unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay
attention to those teachers, unless 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 class paper that's assigned 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 class. 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 less 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 homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free. You'll need the creativity and
ingenuity you develop in all your classes 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 missed 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 pressuring 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 class, 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 across 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.
篇二：奥巴马就职演讲稿(英汉对照)
奥巴马英文就职演讲稿
If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.
It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.
It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled - Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.
It's the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.
It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.
I just received a very gracious call from Senator McCain. He fought long and hard in this campaign, and he's fought even longer and harder for the country he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine, and we are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader. I congratulate him and Governor Palin for all they have achieved, and I look forward to working with them to renew this nation's promise in the months ahead.
I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on that train home to Delaware, the Vice President-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.
I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best
friend for the last sixteen years, the rock of our family and the love of my life, our nation's next First Lady, Michelle Obama. Sasha and Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House. And while she's no longer with us, I know my grandmother is watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight, and know that my debt to them is beyond measure.
To my campaign manager David Plouffe, my chief strategist David Axelrod, and the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics - you made this happen, and I am forever grateful for what you've sacrificed to get it done.
But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to - it belongs to you.
I was never the likeliest candidate for this office. We didn't start with much money or many endorsements. Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington - it began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston.
It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give five dollars and ten dollars and twenty dollars to this cause. It grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generation's apathy; who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep; from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on the doors of perfect strangers; from the millions of Americans who volunteered, and organized, and proved that more than two centuries later, a government of the people, by the people and for the people has not perished from this Earth. This is your victory.
I know you didn't do this just to win an election and I know you didn't do it for me. You did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead. For even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime - two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century. Even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us.
There are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how they'll make the mortgage, or pay their doctor's bills, or save enough for college. There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created; new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.
The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America - I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you - we as a people will get there.
There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as President, and we know that government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And above all, I will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way it's been done in America for two-hundred and twenty-one years - block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.
What began twenty-one months ago in the depths of winter must not end on this autumn night. This victory alone is not the change we seek - it is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were. It cannot happen without you.
So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other. Let us remember that if this financial crisis taught us anything, it's that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers - in this country, we rise or fall as one nation; as one people.
Let us resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long. Let us remember that it was a man from this state who first carried the banner of the Republican Party to the White House - a party founded on the values of self-reliance, individual liberty, and national unity. Those are values we all share, and while the Democratic Party has won a great victory tonight, we do so with a measure of humility and determination to heal the
divides that have held back our progress. As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, "We are not enemies, but friends...though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection." And to those Americans whose support I have yet to earn - I may not have won your vote, but I hear your voices, I need your help, and I will be your President too.
And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world - our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand. To those who would tear this world down - we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security - we support you. And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright - tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from our the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity, and unyielding hope.
For that is the true genius of America - that America can change. Our union can be perfected. And what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.
This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations. But one that's on my mind tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in Atlanta. She's a lot like the millions of others who stood in line to make their voice heard in this election except for one thing - Ann Nixon Cooper is 106 years old.
She was born just a generation past slavery; a time when there were no cars on the road or planes in the sky; when someone like her couldn't vote for two reasons - because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.
And tonight, I think about all that she's seen throughout her century in America - the heartache and the hope; the struggle and the progress; the times we were told that we can't, and the people who pressed on with that American creed: Yes we can.
At a time when women's voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed, she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach for the ballot. Yes we can.
When there was despair in the dust bowl and depression across the land, she saw
a nation conquer fear itself with a New Deal, new jobs and a new sense of common purpose. Yes we can.
When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world, she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved. Yes we can.
She was there for the buses in Montgomery, the hoses in Birmingham, a bridge in Selma, and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that "We Shall Overcome." Yes we can.
A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination. And this year, in this election, she touched her finger to a screen, and cast her vote, because after 106 years in America, through the best of times and the darkest of hours, she knows how America can change. Yes we can.
America, we have come so far. We have seen so much. But there is so much more to do. So tonight, let us ask ourselves - if our children should live to see the next century; if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see? What progress will we have made?
This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. This is our time - to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth - that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people:
Yes We Can. Thank you, God bless you, and may God Bless the United States of America.

chicago, illinois
伊利诺斯，芝加哥if there is anyone out there who still doubts that america is a place where all
things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our
time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.是否还有人仍然怀疑美国是可以创造任何可能性的国家；是否还有人仍然对我们这个时
代能缔造梦想感到困惑；是否还有人仍在质疑我们民主党的执政能力，答案就在今夜。 it’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in
numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours,
many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time
must be different; that their voice could be that difference. 这个答案正以前所未见的那些延伸至学校和教堂的横幅昭示着；人们等待了三到四个小
时，也看到平生第一次的那个时刻来到，人民相信这是如此不同的时刻；他们的呼声也因此
前所未有的响亮。 it’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, democrat
and republican, black, white, latino, asian, native american, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled - americans who sent a message
to the world that we have never been a collection of red states and blue states: we
are, and always will be, the united states of america. 人们都在谈论这个答案，老少无异，贫富不分，民主斗士和共和大军也都没有什么分别，
黑人，白人，拉丁美洲人，亚裔，本土美国人，同性恋者，异性恋者，残疾人士和非残疾人
士全都在关心这个答案——美国人民在向世界发出一种信号，我们从不在红色州盟和蓝色州
盟之间进行选举：我们是并将永远是美利坚合众国。 it’s the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be
cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the
arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day. 这个答案曾经引起如此长久如此广泛的谈论，曾经带来那么多的愤世嫉俗、担惊受怕和
怀疑困惑，那是因为我们渴望能够触摸到历史的苍穹并让希望它尽快转向更加美好的时代。长时间的等待已经过去，而在今夜我们已为这次选举做出了抉择，就在这一决定性的时
刻，我们也抉择了美国的命运将会被改变。 i just received a very gracious call from
senator mccain. he fought long and hard in this campaign, and he’s fought even longer and harder
for the country he loves. he has endured sacrifices for america that most of us cannot
begin to imagine, and we are better off for the service rendered by this brave and

所取得的辉煌成果，并期待着像过去数月所承诺的那样，能与他们一道努力以革新我们的国

我要感谢我的旅途伙伴，他是一个为内心而战斗的人，一个敢于为男人们和女人们讲话
的人，一个从斯克兰顿街区中长大的人，一个乘火车回家却跑到达拉华去了人，他就是美国
副总统侯选人，乔•拜登。 没有过去十六年来挚友亲朋永不放弃的支持和帮助，今晚我就不能站在这里；今夜我能
站在这里，更不能没有稳如磐石的家庭和妻子的爱，我的妻子将成为我们国家下一任的第一
夫人，她就是米歇尔•奥巴马。萨莎和玛丽亚，我是如此地爱你们俩，你们已经获
得了牵着刚买来的小狗和我们一起入住白宫的权力。祖母虽已不在人世了，但我知道她在注
视着这一切，并将同生我养我的家庭一起关注我将成为什么样的人。今夜我想念他们，也深
知自己仍无以报答他们的深情厚意。to my campaign manager david plouffe, my chief strategist david axelrod, and the
best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics - you made this happen,
and i am forever grateful for what you’ve sacrificed to get it done. but above all,
i will never forget who this victory truly belongs to - it belongs to you.我要对我的竞选负责人大卫•普罗菲说，对我的首席竞选篇三：奥巴马演讲稿
—我们为什么要读书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 across 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.) 嗨，大家好！你们今天过得怎么样？我现在和弗吉尼亚州阿林顿郡韦克菲尔德高中的学
生们在一起，全国各地也有从幼儿园到高三的众多学生们通过电视关注这里，我很高兴你们
能共同分享这一时刻。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.
我知道，对你们中的许多人来说，今天是开学的第一天，你们中的有一些刚刚进入幼儿
园或升上初高中，对你们来说，这是在新学校的第一天，因此，假如你们感到有些紧张，那
也是很正常的。我想也会有许多毕业班的学生们正自信满满地准备最后一年的冲刺。不过，
我想无论你有多大、在读哪个年级，许多人都打心底里希望现在还在放暑假，以及今天不用
那么早起床。
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 lessons 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.
