米歇尔北大演讲：读万卷书不如行万里路

3月22日上午，美国第一夫人米歇尔造访北京大学，并接受北大校长赠书。之后，米歇尔在北大斯坦福中心以“读万卷书不如行万里路”为主题的演讲。在米歇尔的演讲中，“留学”成为关键词。她化用中国古语“读万卷书，不如行万里路”，并结合自身经历现身说法，希望让更多青年人拥有留学的机会。以下为米歇尔演讲的双语全文：

MRS.OBAMA:(Applause.)Thank you.Well, ni-hao.(Laughter.)It is such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university, so thank you so much for having me.谢谢。你好。很高兴也很荣幸来到这里，在这所伟大的大学和你们共聚一堂。非常感谢你们邀请我。

Now, before I get started today, on behalf of myself and my husband, I just want to say a few very brief words about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.As my husband has said, the United States is offering as many resources as possible to assist in the search.And please know that we are keeping all of the families and loved ones of those on this flight in our thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time.在今天开始之前，我代表我自己和我的丈夫，就马来西亚航空公司的MH370航班简短说两句。如我丈夫所说，美国正提供尽可能多的资源协助搜寻工作。请相信，在这个非常艰难的时刻，我们的心和航班上人员的家属和亲人在一起，我们为他们祈祷。

Now with that, I want to start by recognizing our new Ambassador to China, Ambassador Baucus;President Wang;Chairman Zhu;Vice President Li;Director Cueller;Professor Oi, and the Stanford Center;President Sexton from New York University, which is an excellent study abroad program in Shanghai;and John Thornton, Director of the Global Leadership Program at Tsinghua University.Thank you all for joining us.现在，我们首先来认识一下美国新任驻华大使，博卡斯大使、王校长、朱主席、李副校长、Cuelluer主任、Oi教授和斯坦福中心，纽约大学的塞克顿斯校长，该校在上海开设了一个优秀的海外留学项目，以及清华大学全球领袖项目主任约翰·桑顿，由衷地感谢大家的到来。

But most of all, I want to thank all of the students who are here today.And I particularly want to thank Eric Schaefer and Zhu Xuanhao for that extraordinary English and Chinese introduction.That was a powerful symbol of everything that I want to talk with you about today.最重要的是，我要感谢今天所有到场的学生们......我要特别感谢埃里克·谢弗和朱宣皓的精彩英文和中文介绍。这绝佳地诠释了我今天要和大家聊的全部话题。

See, by learning each other’s languages, and by showing such curiosity and respect for each other’s cultures, Mr.Schafer and Ms.Zhu and all of you are building bridges of understanding that will lead to so much more.And I’m here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among young people like you across the globe.你们看，通过学习彼此的语言，通过展现对彼此文化的好奇心和尊重，谢弗先生、朱女士以及你们大家正在搭建理解的桥梁，这些桥梁带来更多的丰硕成果。我今天来到你们这里是因为我知道，我们的未来取决于全球像你们这样年轻人间的这样的联系。

That’s why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don’t just visit palaces and parliaments and meet with heads of state.We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you, because we believe that relationships between nations aren’t just about relationships between governments or leaders--they’re about relationships between people, particularly young people.So we view study abroad programs not just as an educational opportunity for students, but also as a vital part of America’s foreign policy.这也是为什么我们夫妇在国外访问时，不只参观宫殿、议会和会晤国家元首。我们也来到学校，与像你们一样的学生见面。因为我们相信，国与国之间的关系不只是政府或领导人之间的关系，它们是人民―特别是年轻人之间的关系。因此，我们认为海外留学项目不只是为学生提供的教育机会，还是美国外交政策至关重要的组成部分。

Through the wonders of modern technology, our world is more connected than ever before.Ideas can cross oceans with the click of a button.Companies can do business and compete with companies across the globe.And we can text, email, Skype with people on every continent.通过现代技术奇迹，我们的世界比以往任何时候都更多地联系在一起。思想可以通过点击按钮跨越海洋。全球各地的公司可以进行业务往来和相互竟争。我们可以与各大洲的人们通过短信、电子邮件和Skype进行沟通。

So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a semester;it is quickly becoming the key to success in our global economy.Because getting ahead in today’s workplaces isn’t just about getting good grades or test scores in school, which are important.It’s also about having real experience with the world beyond your borders –-experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own.Or, as the Chinese saying goes: “It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”

因此，出国留学不只是以开心的方式度过一个学期——它正迅速成为全球化经济中取得成功的关键。因为要走在当今职场的前沿，只在学校里取得好成绩是不够的，还应拥有国境外的真实体验：体验完全不同的语言、文化和社会。正如中国的一句古话所说：“读万卷书，不如行万里路。”

But let’s be clear, studying abroad is about so much more than improving your own future.It’s also about shaping the future of your countries and of the world we all share.Because when it comes to the defining challenges of our time-– whether it’s climate change or economic opportunity or the spread of nuclear weapons--these are shared challenges.And no one country can confront them alone.The only way forward is together.我想要说的是，出国留学绝不仅是改善你们自己的未来，它也关乎塑造你们的国家、关乎我们共有的世界的未来。因为我们这个时代的决定性挑战一一无论是气侯变化、经济机遇，还是核武器扩散一一这些都是我们共同的挑战。没有任何一个国家能够单独应对它们„„唯一的出路就是共同携手。

That’s why it is so important for young people like you to live and study in each other’s countries, because that’s how you develop that habit of cooperation.You do it by immersing yourself in one another’s culture, by learning each other’s stories, by getting past the stereotypes and misconceptions that too often divide us.这就是为什么年轻人到彼此国家学习和生活是如此重要。因为这是你们培养合作习惯的途径一一你们通过融入不同的文化，通过了解彼此的故事，通过跨越常常隔膜我们的成见和误解，来做到这一点。

That’s how you come to understand how much we all share.That’s how you realize that we all have a stake in each other’s success--that cures discovered here in Beijing could save lives in America, that clean energy technologies from Silicon Valley in California could improve the environment here in China, that the architecture of an ancient temple in Xi’an could inspire the design of new buildings in Dallas or Detroit.这是你们了解到我们共享多少东西的途径。这是你们认识到我们的成功惠及彼此的途径。在北京发现的治序方法可以挽救在美国的生命，来自加州硅谷的清洁能源技术可以改善中国的环境，西安一座古老寺庙的架构可激发达拉斯或者底特律新建筑设计的灵感。

And that’s when the connections you make as classmates or labmates can blossom into something more.That’s what happened when Abigail Coplin became an American Fulbright Scholar here at Peking University.She and her colleagues published papers together in top science journals, and they built research partnerships that lasted long after they returned to their home countries.And Professor NiuKe from Peking University was a Fulbright Scholarship--Scholar in the U.S.last year, and he reported--and this is a quote from him--he said, “The most memorable experiences were with my American friends.”

这是你们与同学、实验伙伴建立起的联系能带来更多收获的时候。阿比盖尔·柯普林成为北京大学美国富布赖特学者的时候，她与同事们在首屈一指的科学杂志上共同发表论文，建立研究伙伴关系，这段关系在他们各自回国后还长久持续着。来自北京大学的牛可教授是去年的美国富布赖特学者。我引述下他的话，“最难忘的经历是和我的美国朋友们在一起。”

These lasting bonds represent the true value of studying abroad.And I am thrilled that more and more students are getting this opportunity.As you’ve heard, China is currently the fifth most popular destination for Americans studying abroad, and today, the highest number of exchange students in the U.S.are from China.这些长久的纽带代表留学的真正价值，我很兴奋，越来越多的学生正得到这样的机会。中国目前是美国人留学的第五大热门目的地。今天的美国，来自中国的交换生数量最多。

But still, too many students never have this chance, and some that do are hesitant to take it.They may feel like studying abroad is only for wealthy students or students from certain kinds of universities.Or they may think to themselves, well, that sounds fun but how will it be useful in my life? And believe me, I understand where these young people are coming from because I felt the same way back when I was in college.尽管如此，太多的学生从来没有这样的机会，而一些有机会的学生则犹豫是否要抓住它。他们可能觉得留学只是有钱的学生或来自某类大学的学生的事。或者，他们可能心里想，“嗯，这听起来很有趣，但它在我的生活中真正有多大用处？”我理解这些年轻人，因为我在上大学时也有同样的感受。

See, I came from a working-class family, and it never occurred to me to study abroad--never.My parents didn’t get a chance to attend college, so I was focused on getting into a university, earning my degree so that I could get a good job to support myself and help my family.And I know for a lot of young people like me who are struggling to afford a regular semester of school, paying for plane tickets or living expenses halfway around the world just isn’t possible.And that’s not acceptable, because study abroad shouldn’t just be for students from certain backgrounds.你们知道，我来自一个工薪阶层家庭，我甚至从来没想过留学。我的父母没有上过大学，我将精力集中在进入大学并获得学位，这样我就可以得到一份工作并养活自己。对于很多像我一样靠奋斗才能读得起一个常规学期的年轻人来说，支付世界另一边的机票或生活费实在是不可能的。这是不可接受的，因为留学不应仅属于有一些背景的学生。

Our hope is to build connections between people of all races and socioeconomic backgrounds, because it is that diversity that truly will change the face of our relationships.So we believe that diversity makes our country vibrant and strong.And our study abroad programs should reflect the true spirit of America to the world.我们希望在所有种族和社会经济背景的人之间建立联系，因为正是这样的多样性让我们的国家如此充满活力和强大„„我们的海外留学项目应向世界反映美国的真正精神。

And that’s why when my husband visited China back in 2009, he announced the 100,000 Strong initiative to increase the number and diversity of American students studying in China.And this year, as we mark the 35th anniversary of the normalization of relationships between our two countries, the U.S.government actually supports more American students in China than in any other country in the world.这就是为什么在2009年我的丈夫访问中国时，宣布了我们的10万项倡议，该倡议旨在增加留学中国的美国学生的数量和多样性。而今年，在我们纪念中美两国关系正常化三十五周年之际„„美国政府实际上支持更多的美国学生在中国学习。

We are sending high school, college and graduate students here to study Chinese.We’re inviting teachers from China to teach Mandarin in American schools.We’re providing free online advising for students in China who want to study in the U.S.And the U.S.-China Fulbright program is still going strong with more than 3,000 alumni.我们正将高中生、大学生和研究生送到这里来学习中文，我们正邀请中国老师到美国的高校教授普通话，我们为希望留学美国的中国学生提供免费的在线咨询。美中富布赖特项目仍在加强，现有3000多名学友。

And the private sector is stepping up as well.For example, Steve Schwarzman, who is the head of an American company called Blackstone, is funding a new program at Tsinghua University modeled on the Rhodes Scholarship.And today, students from all kinds of backgrounds are studying here in China.私人部门也在加紧工作。例如，美国黑石公司的主管斯蒂夫·施瓦茨曼正在资助清华大学模仿罗德奖学全的一个新项目。今天，来自不同背景的学生正在中国学习。

Take the example of Royale Nicholson, who’s from Cleveland, Ohio.She attends New York University’s program in Shanghai.Now, like me, Royale is a first-generation college student.And her mother worked two full-time jobs while her father worked nights to support their family.And of her experience in Shanghai, Royale said--and this is her quote--she said, “This city oozes persistence and inspires me to accomplish all that I can.” And happy birthday, Royale.It was her birthday yesterday.(Laughter.)

以来自俄亥俄州克利夫兰的罗亚尔为例，她参加了纽约大学在上海的项目。像我一样，罗亚尔是家里的第一代大学生。她母亲做两份全职工作，而她父亲晚上工作以维持他们的家庭。谈到她在上海的经历时，她说：“这座城市充满韧性，它激励我完成所有我能做的事。”对了，罗亚尔，我祝你生日快乐。昨天正好是她的生日。

And then there’s Philmon Haile from the University of Washington, whose family came to the U.S.as refugees from Eritrea when he was a child.And of his experience studying in China, he said, “Study abroad is a powerful vehicle for people-to-people exchange as we move into a new era of citizen diplomacy.”

还有来自华盛顿大学的腓力门·海尔，他还是孩子的时候，他的家人作为厄立特里亚难民来到了美国。谈到他在中国学习的经历时，他说：“在我们进入公民外交的新时代之际，留学是人民间交流的一种强大工具。”

“A new era of citizen diplomacy”.I could not have said it better myself, because that’s really what I’m talking about.I am talking about ordinary citizens reaching out to the world.And as I always tell young people back in America, you don’t need to get on a plane to be a citizen diplomat.I tell them that if you have an Internet connection in your home, school, or library, within seconds you can be transported anywhere in the world and meet people on every continent.“一个公民外交的新时代”一一我想不出比这更好的说法了，因为这正是我正在谈的，那就是普通公民走向世界。正如我经常对美国年轻认说的那样，你不需要登上飞机才能成为公民外交官。我告诉他们，如果你在家里、学校或者图书馆能上网，只要几秒钟，你就可以被带到世界任何地方，遇见来自每个大陆的人。

And that’s why I’m posting a daily travel blog with videos and photos of my experiences here in China, because I want young people in America to be part of this visit.And that’s really the power of technology –-how it can open up the entire world and expose us to ideas and innovations we never could have imagined.这就是为什么我每天都要发一篇旅行博文，里面有我这次中国之行的视频和照片—因为我希望美国的年轻人能成为这次访问的一部分。这确实是技术的力量—它打开整个世界，让我们接触到以前根本难以想象的思想和创新。

And that’s why it’s so important for information and ideas to flow freely over the Internet and through the media, because that’s how we discover the truth.That’s how we learn what’s really happening in our communities and our country and our world.And that’s how we decide which values and ideas we think are best –-by questioning and debating them vigorously, by listening to all sides of an argument, and by judging for ourselves.这也是为什么信息和思想在互联网上、并通过媒体自由流动是如此重要。因为那是我们发现真理的途径，那使我们得以了解我们的社群、我们的国家和我们的世界到底在发生着什么。那也是我们何以决定哪些价值观和思想是最好的—通过有力地对它们提出疑问，进行辩论，倾听各方观点，并做出自己的判断。

And believe me, I know how this can be a messy and frustrating process.My husband and I are on the receiving end of plenty of questioning and criticism from our media and our fellow citizens.And it’s not always easy, but we wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.Because time and again, we have seen that countries are stronger and more prosperous when the voices of and opinions of all their citizens can be heard.相信我，我知道这是一个令人困惑而沮丧的过程。有大量来自我们媒体和公民的质疑和批评，而我丈夫和我位于接收端。这并非易事，但我们认为它的重要无可取代。因为我们一次又一次地看到，当所有公民的声音和观点都能得到倾听之时，国家会变得更加强大和繁荣。

And as my husband has said, we respect the uniqueness of other cultures and societies, but when it comes to expressing yourself freely and worshipping as you choose and having open access to information, we believe those universal rights--they are universal rights that are the birthright of every person on this planet.We believe that all people deserve the opportunity to fulfill their highest potential as I was able to do in the United States.正像我的丈夫曾说过的，我们尊重其他文化和社会的独特性。然而，就自由的表达自我、选择自己所崇拜的东西，以及享有信息公开而言—我们相信那是地球上每个人与生俱来的权利。我们相信，所有人都应享有实现自己最大潜能的机会，正如我在美国所能做到的那样。

And as you learn about new cultures and form new friendships during your time here in China and in the United States, all of you are the living, breathing embodiment of those values.So I guarantee you that in studying abroad, you’re not just changing your own life, you are changing the lives of everyone you meet.同时，当你在中国这里以及在美国了解新的文化、结交新的朋友之时，你整个人就是那些价值观的鲜活代表。所以我保证，通过出国留学，你们不仅在改变自己的人生，也在改变你所遇到的每个人的人生。

And as the great American President John F.Kennedy once said about foreign students studying in the U.S., he said “I think they teach more than they learn.” And that is just as true of young Americans who study abroad.All of you are America’s best face, and China’s best face, to the world--you truly are.正像伟大的美国总统约翰·肯尼迪谈到留学美国的外国学生时说的那样，“我想他们所教的比他们学到的还要多。”而对出国学习的年径美国人来说也是一样的。对世界而言，你们所有人都是最好的美国面孔，和最好的中国面孔。

Every day, you show the world your countries’ energy and creativity and optimism and unwavering belief in the future.And every day, you remind us--and me in particular--of just how much we can achieve if we reach across borders, and learn to see ourselves in each other, and confront our shared challenges with shared resolve.每一天，你们都在向世界展示你们国家的能量、创造力、乐观，以及对未来坚定不移的信念。每一天，你们都在提醒我们，通过跨越国界，学会在彼此身上看到我们自己，和用共同的决心应对我们共同的挑战。

So I hope you all will keep seeking these kinds of experiences.And I hope you’ll keep teaching each other, and learning from each other, and building bonds of friendship that will enrich your lives and enrich our world for decades to come.所以，我希望你们都会不断寻求这样的经历。我希望你们能继续受益于彼此，互相学习，同时建立起友谊的纽带，而这些纽带能在未来数十年丰富你们的生活，也丰富我们的世界。

You all have so much to offer, and I cannot wait to see all that you achieve together in the years ahead.你们大家都有这么多可以给予世界，我热切期待着你们未来的成就。

Thank you so much.Xie-Xie.(Applause.)

非常感谢。谢谢。

MRS.OBAMA:(Applause.)Thank you.Well, ni-hao.(Laughter.)It is such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university, so thank you so much for having me.Now, before I get started today, on behalf of myself and my husband, I just want to say a few very brief words about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.As my husband has said, the United States is offering as many resources as possible to assist in the search.And please know that we are keeping all of the families and loved ones of those on this flight in our thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time.Now with that, I want to start by recognizing our new Ambassador to China, Ambassador Baucus;President Wang;Chairman Zhu;Vice President Li;Director Cueller;Professor Oi, and the Stanford Center;President Sexton from New York University, which is an excellent study abroad program in Shanghai;and John Thornton, Director of the Global Leadership Program at Tsinghua University.Thank you all for joining us.But most of all, I want to thank all of the students who are here today.And I particularly want to thank Eric Schaefer and Zhu Xuanhao for that extraordinary English and Chinese introduction.That was a powerful symbol of everything that I want to talk with you about today.See, by learning each other’s languages, and by showing such curiosity and respect for each other’s cultures, Mr.Schafer and Ms.Zhu and all of you are building bridges of understanding that will lead to so much more.And I’m here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among young people like you across the globe.That’s why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don’t just visit palaces and parliaments and meet with heads of state.We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you, because we believe that relationships between nations aren’t just about relationships between governments or leaders--they’re about relationships between people, particularly young people.So we view study abroad programs not just as an educational opportunity for students, but also as a vital part of America’s foreign policy.Through the wonders of modern technology, our world is more connected than ever before.Ideas can cross oceans with the click of a button.Companies can do business and compete with companies across the globe.And we can text, email, Skype with people on every continent.So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a semester;it is quickly becoming the key to success in our global economy.Because getting ahead in today’s workplaces isn’t just about getting good grades or test scores in school, which are important.It’s also about having real experience with the world beyond your borders –-experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own.Or, as the Chinese saying goes: “It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”

But let’s be clear, studying abroad is about so much more than improving your own future.It’s also about shaping the future of your countries and of the world we all share.Because when it comes to the defining challenges of our time-– whether it’s climate change or economic opportunity or the spread of nuclear weapons--these are shared challenges.And no one country can confront them alone.The only way forward is together.That’s how you come to understand how much we all share.That’s how you realize that we all have a stake in each other’s success--that cures discovered here in Beijing could save lives in America, that clean energy technologies from Silicon Valley in California could improve the environment here in China, that the architecture of an ancient temple in Xi’an could inspire the design of new buildings in Dallas or Detroit.And that’s when the connections you make as classmates or labmates can blossom into something more.That’s what happened when Abigail Coplin became an American Fulbright Scholar here at Peking University.She and her colleagues published papers together in top science journals, and they built research partnerships that lasted long after they returned to their home countries.And Professor Niu Ke from Peking University was a Fulbright Scholarship--Scholar in the U.S.last year, and he reported--and this is a quote from him--he said, “The most memorable experiences were with my American friends.”

第三篇：读万卷书不如行万里路

读万卷书不如行万里路,行万里路不如阅人无数阅人无数不如名师点悟

时常听到这样一句话：“读万卷书不如行万里路，行万里路不如阅人无数，阅人无数不如名师指路，名师指路不如自己去悟”。有些人只说到名师指路这儿，有些人是全部说完，似乎没有名师指路或自己去悟人就不能成功，片面地强调某一点。这样就进入一个认识的误区：读书有何用，做的再多有什么用！我认为，这句话应该连起来看。一个人要想取得成就，必须多读书，读好书。“书中自有黄金屋”、“书是人类进步的阶梯”、书是人类智慧的结晶，它可以启迪人，一本好书改变一个人的想法从而改变一个人的命运这种事非常多。可见书对一个人的成长具有多么重要的意义。读了很多的书，知道了很多的理论、方法、技巧，可是不去运用到生活工作中去，这对推动我们社会的发展起不到任何作用。为什么现在又开始流行读书无用论，就是基于许多的大学生学了很多知识出来却不能有效的和现实实践相结合，不能产生效益这种现象才造成的。古语说要“学以致用”。行万里路就是指的行动、实践，只有多做，你才能建立自己的信心，才能真正的掌握学到的这些技能和方法。

掌握了这些技能和方法是为了什么呢？就是为了服务于人类。我们每个人都不是一个孤立的人，人的属性是社会性的，我们必须和周围的人打交道。每个人都有自己的想法、知识、阅历、经验，这些都是智慧的体现。阅人无数就是要跟更多的、不同的人打交道，这样才能更清楚的了解人的本性，吸取每个人的优点，摈弃缺点，为我所用，从而不断地提高自己的社交技巧和洞察能力。

我们学了很多、做了很多、也跟很多的人打过交道，为什么我们还会有困惑？如果我们在这样的困惑中走不出来，我们就会很迷茫，慢慢地就会迷失方向，放弃自己所追寻的。在这个时候，有高人的指点就非常重要，他可以帮你理清思路，找到关键点，我们就可以更清楚自己的方向、更轻松的上路！

读万卷书、行万里路、阅人无数、名师指路这些都是外在的，是外因，最重要的一定是要把这些外在的智慧变成我们自己的东西，这就是“悟”。“悟”就是思考，是认识，是内因。一个成功的人一定是一个善于思考的人，所以就有了拿破伦.希尔《思考致富》这本书。人类的进步都是思考的结果。

一个人要想有所成就一定是这样的：读万卷书+行万里路+阅人无数+名师指路+自己悟

第四篇：【辩词】读万卷书不如行万里路

【辩词】读万卷书不如行万里路

书本的内容是有限的，而行万里路却能获得更多耕多......即使书里写的也就是你旅游所看见的，但是那种亲身体验的心情是万卷书不能带给你的。

读万卷书是间接经验，行万里路是直接经验。所以陆游说：纸上得来终觉浅，绝知此事要躬行。在防守上正方必须明确两者都是必要的，不读书或者缺乏理论上的支撑都是不行的。但是既然是比较重要性，就看在相同条件下，那者更为重要。那么在时间和精力都充足的条件下，当然是行万里路比读万卷书更重要。那么在时间和精力不充足的条件下，行万里路固然行不完，读万卷书也读不完，所以只能有选择的读书和有选择的实践。这个战场上，辩的是双方的辩论技巧。从社会发展的角度上，读万卷书更注重传承，行万里路更注重创新。有些时候传承是创新的基础，而有些时候传承会束缚创新的发展

首先确定，读万卷书是一个知的过程，行万里路是行的过程，但是这个行不仅仅是低着头去做，更是在做的过程中总结经验和教训来知，可以将知和行完整的统一。而仅仅是读万卷书则达不到这个效果。然后可以选择从效果方面入手强调行万里路从收获方面而言更具有针对性，更易于获得成功。人不可能让自己成为一个全才，必然会有偏重，或者说专于某一个方面。只有行才能知道自己做什么更合适，光是读书是无法做到这一点的。如果从以上的分析入手破题，应该理论比较简单，也比较容易抓住自己的底线，全队的攻防体系会比较统一，容易配合。但是理论的简单，很难让你在核心部分抓住优势。个人认为，如果是我打比赛，我的核心在于目的与手段的判断，读万卷书可以说是打好基础的手段，但是行万里路才是目的，知的目的就是为了行，强调知的作用，会让整个行动本末倒置。而强调行的效果才是王道。因为在知的方面做的所有工作，都是为了行的效果来打基础的。
如果把这部分加入到前面的理论当中，可能更完善，但是，缺少核心点，建议，将前一点作为主线进行立论和放手，而将后一点作为辅线进行进攻。

„读书万卷‟的中国知识分子很多，人文关怀、兼济天下的雄心也是豪情万丈，但现实却是无情的，天下自然没有他们的份，还落得个“无用”的恶名，这实实在在的证明了中国知识分子眼高手低的坏毛病。理论知识不能学以致用，终究是不出鞘的宝剑，空负了“龙泉”美名。王莽改制只是两汉的一个小插曲，不过几十年。在我的印象里，历代开国皇帝中，要数此人还算是个读书人。王莽，一个不折不扣的腐儒，孔孟读得多了，脑袋僵化得可以。收私田为王田、废奴、改革货币……结果书生政治终究行不通，王莽身败被杀，舌头也被分食。书生就是书生！读书可以“万卷”，步子却迈不出“半步”。通病！有没有不出书斋却知天下事的大家吗？有，而且很多。如康德，他一生未出哥尼斯堡，但胸中的宇宙比大多数人都要宽广。不过，作为哲学家的康德，他研究的领域是一个纯粹理性世界，与我们的经验世界不是一个路数。在那个世界里，讲的是真理、上帝、宗教、逻辑，那是一个浮在云间的天堂，而大多数人却是实实在在的凡人，活在地面之上。知识来源于经验世界，这点相信不会有很多异议。大脑对世界的种种刺激反应，并且通过对这些素材的整理、归纳，才形成我们的“书万卷”。在人类知识的长河中，实践过程始终是主导力量，理论再有高明，也必须通过实践的检验。而且当今科学已经开始显露它的疲态，很多事情已经力不从心。各门学科的领头人，是花在实践方面的时间多，还是花在书本上的时间多？“万里路”更多的是体现一种对“万卷书”的继承和高举，对于“万卷书”的尊重。不再重复前人已经作过的实验，正是由于前人已经反复替我们作过了，而我们的更艰巨使命在于，要站住前人的肩膀上去作更新的探索实践，去寻找新的理论。再看，千百年世界自发形成的秩序是最精密、最自然的，它的存在不是“理论”指导的结果，可以说，理论在很大程度上是落后于现实世界的。理论的存在只是解释这个世界。特别是社会、经济领域里，理论的作用实在有限，而经济生活几乎就是人类生活的主题，目前为止，有此企图都无可幸免的失败。而真正能体现理性威力的地方，只能是物理、化学领域。而这些领域的奠定恰恰还是无数的实验、实践，并且他们的发展仍然要基于未来无数的实验与实践。综上所述，我方认为，“读万卷书”小于“行万里路”。万卷书只是理论知识，万里路才是实际生活。理论和实际之间是有差距的。读万卷书用的只是头脑，而行万里路却需要手、脚、脑、身体并用。我们人类的祖先就是在实际生活当中发现树枝可以用来够到树上的果实，进而促进了人大脑的发育。所以这万里路才是真正有利于人的脑部发育。但是万卷书是我们人类几万年知识的精华。在现今的高科技社会里，没有万卷书的提点，还真不行。祝你能读万卷书，又能行万里路。理论与实践相结合。实现自己的人生梦想！

读万卷书终究还是生活在写书人的世界里，这个世界是作者眼中的世界，不是真实的世界。他们写的只是他们看到的整个世界的一部分。读万卷书，不如行万里路；行万里路不如阅人无数。世界是什么，说白了就是人，人和人的行为构成了这个世界。行路和阅人才是认识这个世界最好的途径。读书则能教给我们一些别人的经验。

第五篇：读万卷书 不如行万里路(讲稿)

读万卷书 不如行万里路

——平罗县农村骨干教师培养对象外出考察汇报材料 各位老师大家早上好！感谢学校领导给我们提供这次交流机会。9月18日-25日，我有幸随平罗县骨干教师考察团，赴青岛北京参观考察，同时也游览了当地的一些旅游景点，一路走来，我的体会可以用一句话概括，那就是：“读万卷书 不如行万里路”。今天我就分四个模块来汇报这次的考察情况。（展示幻灯片2）

一、学校印象（展示图片3），这是青岛人民路第二小学的校门，它建校已有六十多年，目前学校有16个教学班，教职工49人，学生500多人。学校先后被评为山东省体育传统项目验收合格学校、青岛市文明单位、青岛市语言文字先进单位、青岛市教育工会先进单位等20余项市级荣誉，区级荣誉若干。

图片4，这是校门前的花坛。图片5，这是学校的教学楼。

走进学校，映入眼帘的是干净整洁的校园，（展示图片6）校园虽不大，但布局合理，一树一草都成景，运动场红色的塑胶跑道、碧绿的草坪、身着蓝色校服的孩子相映成趣，校园环境优美，每一个角落都是一处景致，行走在校园如在花园。接着学校的副校长吴老师把我们带到了教学楼，走在教室的走廊中，我看到走廊两边墙壁陈列着师生的书画作品，进入教室，看了学生办的黑板报，班级的才艺展示栏。（展示图片7）。印象最深的是看到了学生在晨读，学生都坐在教室里安静的读书，读的是那么认真，教室里也没有老师，我惊诧于学生习惯的养成，想一想我们学校的学生在校园内的言行举止、行为习惯，我不得不反思学校德育工作管理存在的缺陷。来到德育栏园地，（展示图片8）校长介绍了学校的办学理念是“情系学生 三成教育”（展示图片9），三成是指“我成长，我成才，我成功”，（展示图片10）“三成”教育贯穿于学校德育工作的始终。接着看到了学生丰富多彩的校园文化生活图片。（展示图片11）从教学楼出来，我们又在校园里漫步，我们一边走，一边欣赏着、羡慕者、留恋着。惊喜在不断产生，情感在不停的起伏，一路走着我们不禁感叹：孩子们在这样的环境中，学习着，是快乐；老师们在这样的环境中，工作着，是美丽的。试想，当孩子们走进这花园式的学校，享受着教育带给自己的愉悦，又怎能不爱在其中，乐在其中。学校育人环境优美，如在校园中建有“青藤轩文化长廊”、“励志亭”等，让学生感受到民族文化的润泽，激发积极向上的民族自豪感。学校的育人环境处处体现着科学化、儿童化、人文化的理念。在师生的精心布置下，营造了良好的校园文化氛围，使学校真正成为学生生活的家园、学习的乐园。为全面实施素质教育，全方位育人、全面发展学生的个性特长，奠定了坚实的基础。

二、介绍孔庙、孔府、孔林（展示图片12）

（一）介绍孔子（展示图片13）

孔丘，字仲尼。汉族人，春秋时期鲁国人。孔子是我国古代伟大的思想家和教育家，儒家学派创始人，世界最著名的文化名人之一。编撰了我国第一部编年体史书《春秋》。据有关记载，孔子出生于鲁国陬邑昌平乡（今山东省曲阜市东南的南辛镇鲁源村）；孔子逝世时，享年73岁，葬于曲阜城北泗水之上，即今日孔林所在地。孔子的言行 2

思想主要载于语录体散文集《论语》及先秦和秦汉保存下的《史记·孔子世家》。

（二）介绍孔子的名言（展示图片14）

1、“学而时习之，不亦说（悦）乎？有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎？人不知而不愠，不亦君子乎？”

2、“温故而知新，可以为师矣。”

3、知之为知之，不知为不知，是知（智）也。”

4、“己所不欲，勿施于人。”

5、“三人行，必有我师焉。择其善者而从之，其不善者而改之。”

6、“岁寒，然后知松柏之后凋也。”

7、“学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆。”

8、“小不忍则乱大谋。”

9.“学而不厌诲人不倦。“

（三）孔子的教育思想：（展示图片15）

孔子首次提出“有教无类”，认为世界上一切人都享有受教育的的权利。在教育实践上他提出了很好的建议：教师在教书育人的过程中应该“诲人不倦”，“循循善诱”，“因材施教”。他认为学生应该有好的学习方法如“举一反三”、“温故而知新”；学习还要结合思考“学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆”，好学“三人行必有我师”；学习态度要端正。孔子的教育思想，至今仍然有启发和教育的重要意义。

（四）孔子的教育思想对后人的影响（展示图片16）

(1)重视教育,并且创造“因材施教”等教学方法,在教学上注意个性差异,善于启发教学.可以说教学经验很丰富.(2)注重道德,礼教,仁义,要求自觉遵从真和善,这一方面比上欧洲西方国家的宗教和神论思想不知道进步多少倍,是典型的人文主义,以人为本,而不是追求虚无缥缈的偶像和神.(3)思想上善于辨证思维,重视自然的农业,重视经验,认为自然秩序是人类理性的根源,而人类的理性又是人的自然权利的依据.提倡“以农为本”,是符合中国古代的实际资源情况的重农思想.(4)提倡以“礼”治国,“伦理政治”思想.如果说西方文化是“智”型文化,那么我们中国文化就是“德”型文化,这一德型表现在政治上,也有积极的一面:忠于国家,抵御外来侵略,刺杀暴君,直谏犯上.很了不起的民族精神!

（五）介绍孔庙（展示图片17）

孔庙（本庙）位于山东省曲阜市南门内，是第一座祭祀孔子的庙宇，初建于公元前478年，以孔子的故居为庙，以皇宫的规格而建，是我国三大古建筑群之一，在世界建筑史上占有重要地位。

（六）展示孔庙图片

（展示图片18）

1、棂星门，又名天田星，古人认为它“主得士之庆”。古代祭天，先要祭祀灵星。孔庙设门名灵星，是说尊孔如同尊天。

（展示图片19）

2、奎文阁”，它就是以藏书丰富、建筑独特而驰名中外的孔庙藏书楼。

（展示图片20）

3、“大成”，是孟子对孔子的评价。他说：“孔子之谓集大成”，赞颂孔子达到了集 古圣先贤之大成的至高境界。

（展示图片21）

4、“杏坛”，这就是相传孔子讲学的地方。（展示孔庙图片22）

（七）介绍孔府（展示图片23）

孔府也称圣府，是孔子的后代子孙们居住的地方，历史上，孔子的后代继承人都被称之为“衍圣公”。孔府是孔庙的西邻，规模相当宏大，是我国仅次于明、清皇帝宫室的最大府第。

（八）展示孔府图片（图片24）

（九）介绍孔林（展示图片25）

孔林属全国重点文物保护单位，本称至圣林，是孔子及其家族的墓地。孔子死后，弟子们把他葬于曲阜城北泗水之上，那时还是“墓而不坟”（无高土隆起）。到了秦汉时期，虽将坟高筑，但仍只有少量的墓地和几家守林人，后来随着孔子地位的日益提高，孔林的规模越来越大。

三、学习考察感悟反思（展示图片27）

（一）学习感悟

1、先进的教学理念，强大的师资力量

通过参观青岛二小,我们感受到了沿海教育的气派：班班有多媒体教学设备，师师有笔记本电脑，学校有千兆校园网络，功能室活动室空间开旷，设施齐全，资料完备，更让我们领略了沿海教育的先进。

当然，我们知道，这些都源于沿海地区的经济实力，源于政府对教育的认识境界！不是吗，在那方“寸土寸金”的富庶土地上，对教育的每一笔投入都是那么大方：学校的校舍不觉拥挤，每一间教室都那么宽敞，而且班额学生较少（有的班只坐29名学生，最多的有35人），师资力量较强，全校共有学生512人，教师就有40多人，不像我们崇岗九年制小学，学生有1060人，每班的学生人数在60多人，而上课教师只有40多人，教学质量也就是天壤之别了。

2、学习反思成长

在这次的考察学习中，学校的领导在介绍本校的情况时，都强调了学校的办学思想，让我在理论上也有一些认识。教育在向前发展，学生也在发展，新时期的教育对我们老师也提出了更高的要求，教师是教育的执行者，教师同样也要注重创新精神和实践精神的培养，在教学中要树立学生的主体意识，创造适合学生的教育，为学生进入社会发展提供机遇；注重培养学生的参与意识，培养学生的问题意识。同时我们教师在教学工作中自己要创新，从意识上，能力上，方法上创新。这就要求提高教师的业务素质，更新教学观，理解教育是面向未来的事业，对学生的培养要发展他的特长，明白教师担任育人育己的双重任务。在教学中，力求建立和谐民主的师生关系，提高教育的艺术性，事业性和科学性的教育水平。

（二）反思（展示图片28）

1、读万卷书 不如行万里路

本次青岛之行，收获很大，感受至深。我要以本次考察为契机，以学习、研究、总结、反思、提高为主线，加强学习现代化教育理论，更新教育思想，转变教育观念，与时俱进，开拓创新，深入进行教育教学改革，研究教育规律，研究教育中的新问题，及时总结教育教学工作，积累各种资料，及时反思教育教学得失成败，努力提高自己的教育教学水平，发挥自己应有的力量，为平罗县教育的发展做出应有的贡献。百闻不如一见，在此，感谢平罗县教育局领导为我们提供的考察学习机会。2 学习着 成长着 收获着

这次外出考察，虽然时间很短，但收获很大，不仅让我们看到了祖国秀丽的山川，了解了更多灿烂的文化，也使我们的教育观念进一步转变，唤醒了我们对时代发展的思考意识，更加强了我们的紧迫感与危机感。青岛是一个经济发达的地区，教育的发展也是日新月异，相比之下，我们的教育理念还没有完全跟上，特别是课程的改革，学生学习主动性的体现，现代师生观等，都还停留在一种比较肤浅的认识层面上，真正能体现在教学实践中还需要加倍的努力。我们要学习南方学校老师的敬业精神，多读书，加强自身教育教学理论学习，并付诸于自己的教学实践活动，积极投身于教育教学研究工作，不断提高自身素质，扎扎实实做好教育教学工作。

（展示图片29）考察学习带给我的思考：

1、课堂教学我们面对的是活生生的学生，我们更多关注的是什么？评价的标准和尺度应是什么？

2、教育的最终目的是为了学生的发展，那么，我们在课堂乃至课外活动中又将怎样为学生创造学习的平台，进而让他们健康成长？

3、南方的办学重创新，事实实在在的为学生提供创新的土壤，而我

们自身要做的又是什么？

最后，有一句话送给大家：不断学习反思，是教师专业发展的有效途径。（展示图片30）谢谢大家。（展示图片31）
