世界名人英语演讲稿范文

演讲稿是一种实用性比较强的文稿，是为演讲准备的'书面材料。在现实社会中，演讲稿的使用频率越来越高，写起演讲稿来就毫无头绪？以下是小编帮大家整理的世界名人英语演讲稿范文，供大家参考借鉴，希望可以帮助到有需要的朋友。

As Americans gather to celebrate this week, we show our gratitude for the many blessings in our lives.We are grateful for our friends and families who fill our lives with purpose and love.Were grateful for our beautiful country, and for the prosperity we enjoy.Were grateful for the chance to live, work and worship in freedom.And in this Thanksgiving week, we offer thanks and praise to the provider of all these gifts, Almighty God.We also recognize our duty to share our blessings with the least among us.Throughout the holiday season, schools, churches, synagogues and other generous organizations gather food and clothing for their neighbors in need.Many young people give part of their holiday to volunteer at homeless shelters or food pantries.On Thanksgiving, and on every day of the year, America is a more hopeful nation because of the volunteers who serve the weak and the vulnerable.The Thanksgiving tradition of compassion and humility dates back to the earliest days of our society.And through the years, our deepest gratitude has often been inspired by the most difficult times.Almost four centuries ago, the pilgrims set aside time to thank God after suffering through a bitter winter.George Washington held Thanksgiving during a trying stay at Valley Forge.And President Lincoln revived the Thanksgiving tradition in the midst of a civil war.The past year has brought many challenges to our nation, and Americans have met every one with energy, optimism and faith.After lifting our economy from a recession, manufacturers and entrepreneurs are creating jobs again.Volunteers from across the country came together to help hurricane victims rebuild.And when the children of Beslan, Russia suffered a brutal terrorist attack, the world saw Americas generous heart in an outpouring of compassion and relief.The greatest challenges of our time have come to the men and women who protect our nation.Were fortunate to have dedicated firefighters and police officers to keep our streets safe.Were grateful for the homeland security and intelligence personnel who spend long hours on faithful watch.And we give thanks to the men and women of our military who are serving with courage and skill, and making our entire nation proud.

Vice President Johnson, Mr.Speaker, Mr.Chief Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, reverend clergy, fellow citizens:

We observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom--symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning--signifying renewal, as well as change.For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago.The world is very different now.For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe--the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution.Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans--born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.This much we pledge--and more.To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends.United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures.Divided there is little we can do--for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.To those new states whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced by a far more iron tyranny.We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view.But we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom--and to remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside.

第三篇：英语演讲稿 名人

The Speech of Putin Ladies and Gentlemen, I am delighted to greet members and guests of the General Assembly of the International Exhibitions Bureau.Russia has a long and rich experience of participation in the World Expo movement.We took part in the very first universal exhibition in London in 1851.And at the Paris exhibition in 1900 our pavilion won the coveted Gold Medal and Grand Prix.But in all this time, Russia has not hosted the World Expo, not once.Surely, time has come to change this.So, we proudly submit our bid to host World Expo 2020 in Yekaterinburg – a dynamic and promising city.Our bid’s organising committee has the full backing of the Russian government.We guarantee: it will be a priority national project.We are going to build a massive state-of-the-art complex with the capacity to host 30 million visitors over the course of the event.We plan to allocate all the necessary funding for its construction.I am confident: we shall welcome guests from 150 nations of the world with pride and dignity.Now, once again I would like to make this very clear: Russia guarantees to fulfil the complete range of requirements set by the International Exhibitions Bureau.In particular, we are preparing a special programme of support for developing countries.This will enable around ninety countries to freely participate in the Expo, completely free of charge.I can assure you that our grand-scale plans for 2020 will be delivered if Yekaterinburg is given the honour to host World Expo 2020.Thank you for your attention, and I hope for your support.The Speech of Obama 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.)

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.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.Now, as you might imagine, I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early.And a lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table.But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she’d say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.” 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.The speech of Lincoln Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continenta new Nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition thatall men are created equal.Now, we are engaged in a great Civil War,testing whether that Nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated,can long endure.We are met on a great battlefield of that war.We havecome to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for thosewho gave their lives that Nation might live.It is altogether fitting andproper that we should do this.But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannothallow this ground.The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here,have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract.The world willlittle note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget whatthey did here.It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated to thegreat task remaining before us;that from these honored dead, we takeincreased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measureof devotion;that this Nation, under GOD, shall have a new birth of freedom;and that government of the People by the People and for the People shall notperish from the earth..

-----it is such an honor and pleasure for me to be back at yale, especially on the occasion of the 300th anniversary.i have had so many memories of my time here, and as nick was speaking i thought about how i ended up at yale law school.and it tells a little bit about how much progress we’ve made.what i think most about when i think of yale is not just the politically charged atmosphere and not even just the superb legal education that i received.it was at yale that i began work that has been at the core of what i have cared about ever since.i began working with new haven legal services representing children.and i studied child development, abuse and neglect at the yale new haven hospital and the child study center.i was lucky enough to receive a civil rights internship with marian wright edelman at the children’s defense fund, where i went to work after i graduated.those experiences fueled in me a passion to work for the benefit of children, particularly the most vulnerable.now, looking back, there is no way that i could have predicted what path my life would have taken.i didn’t sit around the law school, saying, well, you know, i think i’ll graduate and then i’ll go to work at the children’s defense fund, and then the impeachment inquiry, and nixon retired or resigns, i’ll go to arkansas.i didn’t think like that.i was taking each day at a time.but, i’ve been very fortunate because i’ve always had an idea in my mind about what i thought was important and what gave my life meaning and purpose.a set of values and beliefs that have helped me navigate the shoals, the sometimes very treacherous sea, to illuminate my own true desires, despite that others say about what l should care about and believe in.a passion to succeed at what l thought was important and children have always provided that lone star, that guiding light.because l have that absolute conviction that every child, especially in this, the most blessed of nations that has ever existed on the face of earth, that every child deserves the opportunity to live up to his or her god-given potential.but you know that belief and conviction-it may make for a personal mission statement, but standing alone, not translated into action, it means very little to anyone else, particularly to those for whom you have those concerns.when i was thinking about running for the united states senate-which was such an enormous decision to make, one i never could have dreamed that i would have been making when i was here on campus-i visited a school in new york city and i met a young woman, who was a star athlete.and it doesn’t mean that once having made that choice you will always succeed.in fact, you won’t.there are setbacks and you will experience difficult disappointments.you will be slowed down and sometimes the breath will just be knocked out of you.but if you carry with you the values and beliefs that you can make a difference in your own life, first and foremost, and then in the lives of others.you can get back up, you can keep going.but it is also important, as i have found, not to take yourself too seriously, because after all, every one of us here today, none of us is deserving of full credit.i think every day of the blessings my birth gave me without any doing of my own.i chose neither my family nor my country, but they as much as anything i’ve ever done, determined my course.you have been there trying to serve because you have believed both that it was the right thing to do and because it gave something back to you.you have dared to care.well, dare to care to fight for equal justice for all, for equal pay for women, against hate crimes and bigotry.dare to care about public schools without qualified teachers or adequate resources.dare to care about protecting our environment.dare to care about the 10 million children in our country who lack health insurance.dare to care about the one and a half million children who have a parent in jail.the seven million people who suffer from hiv/aids.and thank you for caring enough to demand that our nation do more to help those that are suffering throughout this world with hiv/aids, to prevent this pandemic from spreading even further.and so bring your values and experiences and insights into politics.dare to help make, not just a difference in politics, but create a different politics.some have called you the generation of choice.you’ve been raised with multiple choice tests, multiple channels, multiple websites and multiple lifestyles.you’ve grown up choosing among alternatives that were either not imagined, created or available to people in prior generations.you’ve been invested with far more personal power to customize your life, to make more free choices about how to live than was ever thought possible.and i think as i look at all the surveys and research that is done, your choices reflect not only freedom, but personal responsibility.the social indicators, not the headlines, the social indicators tell a positive story: drug use and cheating and arrests being down, been pregnancy and suicides, drunk driving deaths being down.it is not the vast conspiracy you may have heard about;rather it’s a silent conspiracy of cynicism and indifference and alienation that we see every day, in our popular culture and in our prodigious consumerism.but as many have said before and as vaclav havel has said to memorably, “it cannot suffice just to invent new machines, new regulations and new institutions.it is necessary to understand differently and more perfectly the true purpose of our existence on this earth and of our deeds.” and i think we are called on to reject, in this time of blessings that we enjoy, those who will tear us apart and tear us down and instead to liberate our god-given spirit, by being willing to dare to dream of a better world.during my campaign, when times were tough and days were long i used to think about the example of harriet tubman, a heroic new yorker, a 19th century moses, who risked her life to bring hundreds of slaves to freedom.she would say to those who she gathered up in the south where she kept going back year after year from the safety of auburn, new york, that no matter what happens, they had to keep going.if they heard shouts behind them, they had to keep going.if they heard gunfire or dogs, they had to keep going to freedom.well, those aren’t the risks we face.it is more the silence and apathy and indifference that dogs our heels.thirty-two years ago, i spoke at my own graduation from wellesley, where i did call on my fellow classmates to reject the notion of limitations on our ability to effect change and instead to embrace the idea that the goal of education should be human liberation and the freedom to practice with all the skill of our being the art of making possible.thank you and god bless you all.篇三：名人英语演讲稿

名人英语演讲稿 tribute to diana 致戴安娜——查尔斯·斯宾塞

在全世界，戴安娜是同情心、责任心、风度和美丽的化身，是无私和人道的象征，是维护真正被践踏的权益的旗手，是一个超越国界的英国女孩，是一个带有自然的高贵气质的人，是一个不分阶层的人。this is the text of earl spencers tribute to his sister at her funeral.there is some very deep, powerful and heartfelt sentiment.would that those at whom it is aimed would take heed.the versions posted on several news services had minor errors.this is precisely as it was deliverd.i stand before you today the representative of a family in grief, in a country in mourning before a world in shock.we are all united not only in our desire to pay our respects to diana but rather in our need to do so.for such was her extraordinary appeal that the tens of millions of people taking part in this service all over the world via television and radio who never actually met her, feel that they, too, lost someone close to them in the early hours of sunday morning.it is a more remarkable tribute to diana than i can ever hope to offer her today.today is our chance to say thank you for the way you brightened our lives, even though god granted you but half a life.we will all feel cheated, always, that you were taken from us so young and yet we must learn to be grateful that you came along at all.only now you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without and we want you to know that life without you is very, very difficult.we have all despaired at our loss over the past week and only the strength of the message you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward.there is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory.there is no need to do so.you stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint.indeed to sanctify your memory would be to miss out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor with the laugh that bent you double, your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile, and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes, your boundless energy which you could barely contain.but your greatest gift was your intuition, and it was a gift you used wisely.this is what underpinned all your wonderful attributes.and if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal, we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives.without your god-given sensitivity, we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of aids and hiv sufferers, the plight of the homeless, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of land mines.diana explained to me once that it was her innermost feelings of suffering that made it possible for her to connect with her constituency of the rejected.the world sensed this part of her character and cherished her for her vulnerability, whilst admiring her for her honesty.the last time i saw diana was on july the first, her birthday, in london, when typically she was not taking time to celebrate her special day with friends but was guest of honor at a fund-raising charity evening.she sparkled of course, but i would rather cherish the days i spent with her in march when she came to visit me and my children in our home in south africa.i am proud of the fact that apart from when she was on public display meeting president mandela, we managed to contrive to stop the ever-present paparazzi from getting a single picture of her.that meant a lot to her.these were days i will always treasure.it was as if wed been transported back to our childhood, when we spent such an enormous amount of time together, the two youngest in the family.fundamentally she hadnt changed at all from the big sister who mothered me as a baby, fought with me at school and endured those long train journeys between our parents homes with me at weekends.it is a tribute to her level-headedness and strength that despite the most bizarre life imaginable after her childhood, she remained intact, true to herself.there is no doubt that she was looking for a new direction in her life at this time.she talked endlessly of getting away from england, mainly because of the treatment she received at the hands of the newspapers.i dont think she ever understood why her genuinely good intentions were sneered at by the media, why there appeared to be a permanent quest on their behalf to bring her down.it is baffling.my own, and only, explanation is that genuine goodness is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum.it is a point to remember that of all the ironies about diana, perhaps the greatest was this;that a girl given the name of the ancient goddess of hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age.she would want us today to pledge ourselves to protecting her beloved boys william and harry from a similar fate.and i do this here, diana, on your behalf.we will not allow them to suffer the anguish that used regularly to drive you to tearful despair.beyond that, on behalf of your mother and sisters, i pledge that we, your blood family, will do all we can to continue the imaginative and loving way in which you were steering these two exceptional young men, so that their souls are not simply immersed by duty and tradition but can sing openly as you planned.we fully respect the heritage into which they have both been born, and will always respect and encourage them in their royal role.but we, like you, recognize the need for them to experience as many different aspects of life as possible, to arm them spiritually and emotionally for the years ahead.i know you would have expected nothing less from us.william and harry, we all care desperately for you today.we are all chewed up with sadness at the loss of a woman who wasnt even our mother.how great your suffering is we cannot even imagine.i would like to end by thanking god for the small mercies he has shown us at this dreadful time;for taking diana at her most beautiful and radiant and when she had joy in her private life.影响你一生的名人励志演讲(视频+mp3+ 演讲稿)--英语演讲专题 kira86 于2012-01-11发布 l

——美国著名电视节目主持人奥普拉·温弗瑞2008年在斯坦福大学毕业典礼上发表的演讲

1、奥斯特洛夫斯基

命运对奥斯特洛夫斯基是残酷的：他念过三年小学，青春消逝在疾驰的战马与枪林弹雨中。16岁时，他腹部与头部严重负伤，右眼失明。20岁时，又因关节硬化而卧床不起。面对着命运的严峻挑战，他深切地感到：“在生活中没比掉队更可怕的事情了。”奥斯特洛夫斯基与命运进行了英勇的抗争：他不想躺在残废荣誉军人的功劳簿上向祖国和人民伸手，他用沸腾的精力读完了函授大学的全部课程，如饥似渴地阅读俄罗斯与世界文学名著。书籍召唤他前进，书籍陪伴他披荆斩棘。奥斯特洛夫斯基思想的烈马，驰骋在乌克兰与波兰交界的辽阔的原野上，他口授的每一个字母都像无情的子弹，射向入侵的德国强盗。2.张海迪 1955年秋天在济南出生。5岁患脊髓病，胸以下全部瘫痪。从那时起，张海迪开始了她独到的人生。她无法上学，便在在家自学完中学课程。在残酷的命运挑战面前，张海迪没有沮丧和沉沦，她以顽强的毅力和恒心与疾病做斗争，经受了严峻的考验，对人生充满了信心。她虽然没有机会走进校门，却发愤学习，学完了小学、中学全部课程，自学了大学英语、日语、德语和世界语，并攻读了大学和硕士研究生的课程。为了对社会作出更大的贡献，她先后自学了十几种医学专著，同时向有经验的医生请教，学会了针灸等医术，为群众无偿治疗

达1万多人次。

我们都是四肢健全的人，所以更我们应该珍惜眼前的学习机会。3.爱迪生

在爱迪生发明灯泡的时候他失败了很多次，当他用到一千多种材料做灯丝的时候，助手对他说：“你已经失败了一千多次了，成功已经变得渺茫，还是放弃吧！”但爱迪生却说：“到现在我的收获还不错，起码我发现有一千多种材料不能做灯丝。”最后，他经过六千多次的实验终于成功了。

我们可以试想，如果爱迪生在助手劝他停止实验的时候放弃了，我们现在会怎么样呢？可能我们还要点只有豆粒般大小的油灯在夜里照明。其实爱迪生的每次试验失败都可以看作是挫折。这么一算，爱迪生发明电灯也就是遇上了六千多次的挫折，这是一个多么惊人的数目啊！4.林肯

生下来就一贫如洗的林肯，终其一生都在面对挫败，八次竞选八次落败，两次经商失败，甚至还精神崩溃过一次。好多次，他本可以放弃，但他并没有如此，也正因为 他没有放弃，才成为美国历史上最伟大的总统之一。此路艰辛而泥泞。我一只脚滑了一下，另一只脚也因而站不稳;但我缓口气，告诉自己，这不过是滑一跤，并不是死去而爬

不起来。——林肯在竞选参议员落败后如是说

我们有的时候受到一次挫折，或经受到一次失败，就灰心丧气，认为自己一无是处，看看爱迪生和林肯，我们就会明白人的一生不是一帆风顺的，关键是学会坚持，永不放弃。4.霍金

霍金虽然身体的残疾越来越重，但却力图像普通人一样生活，完成自己所能做的任何事情。他甚至是活泼好动的——这听起来有些好笑，在他已经完全无法移动之后，他仍然坚持用唯一可以活动的手指驱动着轮椅在前往办公室的路上“横冲直撞”； ·威廉·霍金认为他一生的贡献是在经典物理的框架里，证明了黑洞和大爆炸奇点的不可避免性，黑洞越变越大；但在量子物理的框架里，他指出，黑洞因辐射而越变越小，大爆炸的奇点不断被量子效应所抹平，而且整个宇宙正是起始于此。

名人英语演讲稿 tribute to diana 致戴安娜——查尔斯·斯宾塞

在全世界，戴安娜是同情心、责任心、风度和美丽的化身，是无私和人道的象征，是维护真正被践踏的权益的旗手，是一个超越国界的英国女孩，是一个带有自然的高贵气质的人，是一个不分阶层的人。this is the text of earl spencers tribute to his sister at her funeral.there is some very deep, powerful and heartfelt sentiment.would that those at whom it is aimed would take heed.the versions posted on several news services had minor errors.this is precisely as it was deliverd.i stand before you today the representative of a family in grief, in a country in mourning before a world in shock.we are all united not only in our desire to pay our respects to diana but rather in our need to do so.for such was her extraordinary appeal that the tens of millions of people taking part in this service all over the world via television and radio who never actually met her, feel that they, too, lost someone close to them in the early hours of sunday morning.it is a more remarkable tribute to diana than i can ever hope to offer her today.today is our chance to say thank you for the way you brightened our lives, even though god granted you but half a life.we will all feel cheated, always, that you were taken from us so young and yet we must learn to be grateful that you came along at all.only now you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without and we want you to know that life without you is very, very difficult.we have all despaired at our loss over the past week and only the strength of the message you gave us through your years of giving has afforded us the strength to move forward.there is a temptation to rush to canonize your memory.there is no need to do so.you stand tall enough as a human being of unique qualities not to need to be seen as a saint.indeed to sanctify your memory would be to miss out on the very core of your being, your wonderfully mischievous sense of humor with the laugh that bent you double, your joy for life transmitted wherever you took your smile, and the sparkle in those unforgettable eyes, your boundless energy which you could barely contain.but your greatest gift was your intuition, and it was a gift you used wisely.this is what underpinned all your wonderful attributes.and if we look to analyze what it was about you that had such a wide appeal, we find it in your instinctive feel for what was really important in all our lives.without your god-given sensitivity, we would be immersed in greater ignorance at the anguish of aids and hiv sufferers, the plight of the homeless, the isolation of lepers, the random destruction of land mines.diana explained to me once that it was her innermost feelings of suffering that made it possible for her to connect with her constituency of the rejected.the world sensed this part of her character and cherished her for her vulnerability, whilst admiring her for her honesty.the last time i saw diana was on july the first, her birthday, in london, when typically she was not taking time to celebrate her special day with friends but was guest of honor at a fund-raising charity evening.she sparkled of course, but i would rather cherish the days i spent with her in march when she came to visit me and my children in our home in south africa.i am proud of the fact that apart from when she was on public display meeting president mandela, we managed to contrive to stop the ever-present paparazzi from getting a single picture of her.that meant a lot to her.these were days i will always treasure.it was as if wed been transported back to our childhood, when we spent such an enormous amount of time together, the two youngest in the family.fundamentally she hadnt changed at all from the big sister who mothered me as a baby, fought with me at school and endured those long train journeys between our parents homes with me at weekends.it is a tribute to her level-headedness and strength that despite the most bizarre life imaginable after her childhood, she remained intact, true to herself.there is no doubt that she was looking for a new direction in her life at this time.she talked endlessly of getting away from england, mainly because of the treatment she received at the hands of the newspapers.i dont think she ever understood why her genuinely good intentions were sneered at by the media, why there appeared to be a permanent quest on their behalf to bring her down.it is baffling.my own, and only, explanation is that genuine goodness is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum.it is a point to remember that of all the ironies about diana, perhaps the greatest was this;that a girl given the name of the ancient goddess of hunting was, in the end, the most hunted person of the modern age.she would want us today to pledge ourselves to protecting her beloved boys william and harry from a similar fate.and i do this here, diana, on your behalf.we will not allow them to suffer the anguish that used regularly to drive you to tearful despair.beyond that, on behalf of your mother and sisters, i pledge that we, your blood family, will do all we can to continue the imaginative and loving way in which you were steering these two exceptional young men, so that their souls are not simply immersed by duty and tradition but can sing openly as you planned.we fully respect the heritage into which they have both been born, and will always respect and encourage them in their royal role.but we, like you, recognize the need for them to experience as many different aspects of life as possible, to arm them spiritually and emotionally for the years ahead.i know you would have expected nothing less from us.william and harry, we all care desperately for you today.we are all chewed up with sadness at the loss of a woman who wasnt even our mother.how great your suffering is we cannot even imagine.i would like to end by thanking god for the small mercies he has shown us at this dreadful time;for taking diana at her most beautiful and radiant and when she had joy in her private life.hello,every body!thank you.thank you ,every body!all right,every body go ahead and have a seat.how is everybody doing today?i am here with students at wakefield higt school.and we have students tuning in from all across america,from kindergraten 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 appluse.i know that for many of you ,today is the first day of school.and for thoses of you in kindengraten ,or starting middle or high school ,is you first day in a new school,so is understandable if you are a little nervous.i imagine there are some seniors out there who are felling pretty good right now,with just one more year to go.and no matter grade you are in,some of you are probably wishing it were still sumer and you could have stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.i know that felling ,when i was young,my family lived oversea.i lived in indonesia for a few years.and my mothor,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 though firday ,but she had to go to work.the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.mr.president, ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon!主席先生，各位来宾，大家午安！before i introduce our cultural programs, only tell you one thing first about 2008.youre going tohave a great time in beijing.在我介绍我们的文化项目之前，首先我要告诉你们一件有关于2008的事情，那就是你们将在北京度过一段美好的时光。many people are fascinated by chinss sport legends in the history.for example, back to songdynasty, which was the 11th century, people in our country started to play a game called cuju,which is regarded as the origin of ancient football.the game was so popular that women were alsoparticipating.now, you would probably understand why our womens football team does so welltoday.很多人都对中国历史上的体育传奇感兴趣。例如，早在宋代，大约11世纪，人们开始玩一个叫蹴鞠的游戏，这被看作是足球古老的起源。这个游戏很受欢迎，妇女也来参加。现在，你就会明白，为什么我们的女子足球队这么厉害了。there are a lot more wonderful and exciting events waiting for you in the new beijing, a modernmetropolis with 3,000 years of cultural treasures woven into the urban tapestry.along with theiconic imagery of the forbidden city, the temple of heaven and the great wall, the city also offersan endless mixture of theatres, museums, discos, all kinds of restaurants and shopping malls whichwill amaze and delight you.volve youngpeople from around the world.during the olympics, these activites will also be held in the olympicvillage and in the city for the benefit of the athletes.基于丝绸之路带来的灵感，我们的火炬接力将有新的突破，从奥林匹亚开始，穿越一些最古老的国家文明古国——希腊、罗马、埃及、拜占庭、美索不达米亚、波斯、阿拉伯、印度和中国。携带的信息“分享和平，分享奥运”永恒的火焰将达到新的高峰，因为它将穿越喜马拉雅山在世界的最高峰——珠穆朗玛峰。在中国，圣火还将穿过西藏，穿越长江与黄河，游历长城，并拜访香港，澳门，台湾和56个民族的人们，在这一历程之中，圣火的观看人数将超越所有之前的传递，儿它也将被激励更多的人参与到奥林匹克的大家庭中。i am afraid i can not give you the full picture of our cultural programs within such a short period oftime.before i end, let me share with you one story.seven hundred years ago, amazed by hisincredible description of a far away land of great beauty, people asked marco polo whether hisstories about china were true.and marco answered: what i have told you was not even half ofwhat i saw.actually, what we have shown you here today is only a fraction of the beijing thatawaits you.在这么短的时间里，我恐怕不能介绍现在的中华全貌与我们的文化，在我结束前，让我跟大家分享这样一个故事，七百年前，马可波罗来到中国，马可波罗曾对中国的美丽有过惊奇的描述，人们对他描述感到十分惊讶，人们问马可波罗他的故事是不是真的，他回答道：我告诉你的连我看到的一半都没有达到。其实,我们已经介绍的只是一小部分，北京正在等待着你！

ladies and gentlemen，我相信北京将向你们所有人证明它是一片神奇的土地, 不论是运动员，观众，还是全世界的电视观众。来吧，和我们一起来吧！谢谢主席先生。谢谢大家。现在再次由请何振梁先生讲话。
