在纽约演讲稿(3篇范文)

第1篇 希拉里在纽约罗斯福岛首场总统竞选集会英语演讲稿

thank you! oh, thank you all! thank you so very, very much.

it is wonderful to be here with all of you.

to be in new york with my family, with so many friends, including many new yorkers who gaveme the honor of serving them in the senate for eight years.

to be right across the water from the headquarters of the united nations, where i representedour country many times.

to be here in this beautiful park dedicated to franklin roosevelt's enduring vision of america,the nation we want to be.

and in a place…with absolutely no ceilings.

you know, president roosevelt's four freedoms are a testament to our nation's unmatchedaspirations and a reminder of our unfinished work at home and abroad. his legacy lifted up anation and inspired presidents who followed. one is the man i served as secretary of state,barack obama, and another is my husband, bill clinton.

two democrats guided by – oh, that will make him so happy. they were and are twodemocrats guided by the fundamental american belief that real and lasting prosperity mustbe built by all and shared by all.

president roosevelt called on every american to do his or her part, and every americananswered. he said there's no mystery about what it takes to build a strong and prosperousamerica: "equality of opportunity…jobs for those who can work…security for those who needit…the ending of special privilege for the few…the preservation of civil liberties for all…awider and constantly rising standard of living."

that still sounds good to me.

it's america's basic bargain. if you do your part, you ought to be able to get ahead. and wheneverybody does their part, america gets ahead too.

that bargain inspired generations of families, including my own.

it's what kept my grandfather going to work in the same scranton lace mill every day for 50years.

it's what led my father to believe that if he scrimped and saved, his small business – printingdrapery fabric in chicago – could provide us with a middle-class life. and it did.

when president clinton honored the bargain, we had the longest peacetime expansion inhistory, a balanced budget, and for the first time in decades we all grew together, with thebottom 20 percent of workers increasing their incomes by the same percentage as the top 5percent.

when president obama honored the bargain, we pulled back from the brink of depression,saved the auto industry, provided health care to 16 million working people, and replaced thejobs we lost faster than the historical average after a financial crash.

but, it's not 1941, or 1993, or even 2019. we face new challenges in our economy and ourdemocracy.

we're still working our way back from a crisis that happened because time-tested values werereplaced by false promises.

instead of an economy built by every american, for every american, we were told that if we letthose at the top pay lower taxes and bend the rules, their success would trickle down toeveryone else.

what happened?

well, instead of a balanced budget with surpluses that could have eventually paid off ournational debt, the republicans twice cut taxes for the wealthiest, borrowed money from othercountries to pay for two wars, and family incomes dropped. you know where we ended up.

except it wasn't the end.

as we have since our founding, americans made a new beginning.

you worked extra shifts, took second jobs, postponed home repairs…you figured out how tomake it work. and now people are beginning to think about their future again – going tocollege, starting a business, buying a house, finally being able to put away something forretirement.

so we're standing again. but, we all know we're not yet running the way america should.

you see corporations making record profits, with ceos making record pay, but your paycheckshave barely budged.

while many of you are working multiple jobs to make ends meet, you see the top 25 hedgefund managers making more than all of america's kindergarten teachers combined. and, oftenpaying a lower tax rate.

so, you have to wonder: "when does my hard work pay off? when does my family get ahead?"

"when?"

i say now.

prosperity can't be just for ceos and hedge fund managers.

democracy can't be just for billionaires and corporations.

prosperity and democracy are part of your basic bargain too.

you brought our country back.

now it's time – your time to secure the gains and move ahead.

and, you know what?

america can't succeed unless you succeed.

that is why i am running for president of the united states.

here…here, on roosevelt island, i believe we have a continuing rendezvous with destiny. eachamerican and the country we cherish.

i'm running to make our economy work for you and for every american.

for the successful and the struggling.

for the innovators and inventors.

for those breaking barriers in technology and discovering cures for diseases.

for the factory workers and food servers who stand on their feet all day.

for the nurses who work the night shift.

for the truckers who drive for hours and the farmers who feed us.

for the veterans who served our country.

for the small business owners who took a risk.

for everyone who's ever been knocked down, but refused to be knocked out.

i'm not running for some americans, but for all americans.

our country's challenges didn't begin with the great recession and they won't end with therecovery.

for decades, americans have been buffeted by powerful currents.

advances in technology and the rise of global trade have created whole new areas of economicactivity and opened new markets for our exports, but they have also displaced jobs andundercut wages for millions of americans.

the financial industry and many multi-national corporations have created huge wealth for a fewby focusing too much on short-term profit and too little on long-term value…too much oncomplex trading schemes and stock buybacks, too little on investments in new businesses,jobs, and fair compensation.

our political system is so paralyzed by gridlock and dysfunction that most americans have lostconfidence that anything can actually get done. and they've lost trust in the ability of bothgovernment and big business to change course.

now, we can blame historic forces beyond our control for some of this, but the choices we'vemade as a nation, leaders and citizens alike, have also played a big role.

our next president must work with congress and every other willing partner across our entirecountry. and i will do just that – to turn the tide so these currents start working for us morethan against us.

at our best, that's what americans do. we're problem solvers, not deniers. we don't hide fromchange, we harness it.

but we can't do that if we go back to the top-down economic policies that failed us before.

americans have come too far to see our progress ripped away.

now, there may be some new voices in the presidential republican choir, but they're all singingthe same old song…

a song called "yesterday."

you know the one – all our troubles look as though they're here to stay…and we need a place tohide away…they believe in yesterday.

and you're lucky i didn't try singing that, too, i'll tell you!

these republicans trip over themselves promising lower taxes for the wealthy and fewer rulesfor the biggest corporations without regard for how that will make income inequality evenworse.

we've heard this tune before. and we know how it turns out.

ask many of these candidates about climate change, one of the defining threats of our time,and they'll say: "i'm not a scientist." well, then, why don't they start listening to those whoare?

they pledge to wipe out tough rules on wall street, rather than rein in the banks that are stilltoo risky, courting future failures. in a case that can only be considered mass amnesia.

they want to take away health insurance from more than 16 million americans without anycredible alternative.

they shame and blame women, rather than respect our right to make our own reproductivehealth decisions.

they want to put immigrants, who work hard and pay taxes, at risk of deportation.

and they turn their backs on gay people who love each other.

fundamentally, they reject what it takes to build an inclusive economy. it takes an inclusivesociety. what i once called "a village" that has a place for everyone.

now, my values and a lifetime of experiences have given me a different vision for america.

i believe that success isn't measured by how much the wealthiest americans have, but by howmany children climb out of poverty…

how many start-ups and small businesses open and thrive…

how many young people go to college without drowning in debt…

how many people find a good job…

how many families get ahead and stay ahead.

i didn't learn this from politics. i learned it from my own family.

my mother taught me that everybody needs a chance and a champion. she knew what it waslike not to have either one.

her own parents abandoned her, and by 14 she was out on her own, working as a housemaid.years later, when i was old enough to understand, i asked what kept her going.

you know what her answer was? something very simple: kindness from someone who believedshe mattered.

the first grade teacher who saw she had nothing to eat at lunch and, without embarrassing her,brought extra food to share.

the woman whose house she cleaned letting her go to high school so long as her work got done.that was a bargain she leapt to accept.

and, because some people believed in her, she believed in me.

that's why i believe with all my heart in america and in the potential of every american.

to meet every challenge.

to be resilient…no matter what the world throws at you.

to solve the toughest problems.

i believe we can do all these things because i've seen it happen.

as a young girl, i signed up at my methodist church to babysit the children of mexicanfarmworkers, while their parents worked in the fields on the weekends. and later, as a lawstudent, i advocated for congress to require better working and living conditions for farmworkers whose children deserved better opportunities.

my first job out of law school was for the children's defense fund. i walked door-to-door to findout how many children with disabilities couldn't go to school, and to help build the case for alaw guaranteeing them access to education.

as a leader of the legal services corporation, i defended the right of poor people to have alawyer. and i saw lives changed because an abusive marriage ended or an illegal evictionstopped.

in arkansas, i supervised law students who represented clients in courts and prisons,organized scholarships for single parents going to college, led efforts for better schools andhealth care, and personally knew the people whose lives were improved.

as senator, i had the honor of representing brave firefighters, police officers, emts,construction workers, and volunteers who ran toward danger on 9/11 and stayed there,becoming sick themselves.

it took years of effort, but congress finally approved the health care they needed.

there are so many faces and stories that i carry with me of people who gave their best and thenneeded help themselves.

just weeks ago, i met another person like that, a single mom juggling a job and classes atcommunity college while raising three kids.

she doesn't expect anything to come easy. but she did ask me: what more can be done so itisn't quite so hard for families like hers?

i want to be her champion and your champion.

if you'll give me the chance, i'll wage and win four fights for you.

the first is to make the economy work for everyday americans, not just those at the top.

to make the middle class mean something again, with rising incomes and broader horizons.and to give the poor a chance to work their way into it.

the middle class needs more growth and more fairness. growth and fairness go together. forlasting prosperity, you can't have one without the other.

is this possible in today's world?

i believe it is or i wouldn't be standing here.

do i think it will be easy? of course not.

but, here's the good news: there are allies for change everywhere who know we can't stand bywhile inequality increases, wages stagnate, and the promise of america dims. we shouldwelcome the support of all americans who want to go forward together with us.

there are public officials who know americans need a better deal.

business leaders who want higher pay for employees, equal pay for women and nodiscrimination against the lgbt community either.

there are leaders of finance who want less short-term trading and more long-term investing.

they want to put immigrants, who work hard and pay taxes, at risk of deportation.

and they turn their backs on gay people who love each other.

fundamentally, they reject what it takes to build an inclusive economy. it takes an inclusivesociety. what i once called "a village" that has a place for everyone.

there are leaders of finance who want less short-term trading and more long-term investing.

i want to make it easier for every citizen to vote. that's why i've proposed universal,automatic registration and expanded early voting.

i'll fight back against republican efforts to disempower and disenfranchise young people, poorpeople, people with disabilities, and people of color.

what part of democracy are they afraid of?

no matter how easy we make it to vote, we still have to give americans something worthvoting for.

government is never going to have all the answers – but it has to be smarter, simpler, moreefficient, and a better partner.

that means access to advanced technology so government agencies can more effectivelyserve their customers, the american people.

we need expertise and innovation from the private sector to help cut waste and streamlineservices.

there's so much that works in america. for every problem we face, someone somewhere inamerica is solving it. silicon valley cracked the code on sharing and scaling a while ago. manystates are pioneering new ways to deliver services. i want to help washington catch up.

to do that, we need a political system that produces results by solving problems that hold usback, not one overwhelmed by extreme partisanship and inflexibility.

now, i'll always seek common ground with friend and opponent alike. but i'll also stand myground when i must.

that's something i did as senator and secretary of state – whether it was working withrepublicans to expand health care for children and for our national guard, or improve ourfoster care and adoption system, or pass a treaty to reduce the number of russian nuclearwarheads that could threaten our cities – and it's something i will always do as your president.

we americans may differ, bicker, stumble, and fall; but we are at our best when we pick eachother up, when we have each other's back.

like any family, our american family is strongest when we cherish what we have in common,and fight back against those who would drive us apart.

people all over the world have asked me: "how could you and president obama work togetherafter you fought so hard against each other in that long campaign?"

now, that is an understandable question considering that in many places, if you lose anelection you could get imprisoned or exiled – even killed – not hired as secretary of state.

but president obama asked me to serve, and i accepted because we both love our country.that's how we do it in america.

with that same spirit, together, we can win these four fights.

we can build an economy where hard work is rewarded.

we can strengthen our families.

we can defend our country and increase our opportunities all over the world.

and we can renew the promise of our democracy.

if we all do our part. in our families, in our businesses, unions, houses of worship, schools,and, yes, in the voting booth.

i want you to join me in this effort. help me build this campaign and make it your own.

talk to your friends, your family, your neighbors.

text "join" j-o-i-n to 4-7-2-4-6.

go to hillaryclinton.com and sign up to make calls and knock on doors.

it's no secret that we're going up against some pretty powerful forces that will do and spendwhatever it takes to advance a very different vision for america. but i've spent my life fightingfor children, families, and our country. and i'm not stopping now.

you know, i know how hard this job is. i've seen it up close and personal.

all our presidents come into office looking so vigorous. and then we watch their hair growgrayer and grayer.

well, i may not be the youngest candidate in this race. but i will be the youngest womanpresident in the history of the united states!

and the first grandmother as well.

and one additional advantage: you're won't see my hair turn white in the white house. i'vebeen coloring it for years!

so, i'm looking forward to a great debate among democrats, republicans, and independents.i'm not running to be a president only for those americans who already agree with me. i wantto be a president for all americans.

and along the way, i'll just let you in on this little secret. i won't get everything right. lordknows i've made my share of mistakes. well, there's no shortage of people pointing them out!

and i certainly haven't won every battle i've fought. but leadership means perseverance andhard choices. you have to push through the setbacks and disappointments and keep at it.

i think you know by now that i've been called many things by many people – "quitter" is notone of them.

like so much else in my life, i got this from my mother.

when i was a girl, she never let me back down from any bully or barrier. in her later years,mom lived with us, and she was still teaching me the same lessons. i'd come home from a hardday at the senate or the state department, sit down with her at the small table in ourbreakfast nook, and just let everything pour out. and she would remind me why we keepfighting, even when the odds are long and the opposition is fierce.

i can still hear her saying: "life's not about what happens to you, it's about what you do withwhat happens to you – so get back out there."

she lived to be 92 years old, and i often think about all the battles she witnessed over thecourse of the last century – all the progress that was won because americans refused to give upor back down.

she was born on june 4, 1919 – before women in america had the right to vote. but on thatvery day, after years of struggle, congress passed the constitutional amendment that wouldchange that forever.

the story of america is a story of hard-fought, hard-won progress. and it continues today. newchapters are being written by men and women who believe that all of us – not just some, butall – should have the chance to live up to our god-given potential.

not only because we're a tolerant country, or a generous country, or a compassionatecountry, but because we're a better, stronger, more prosperous country when we harness thetalent, hard work, and ingenuity of every single american.

i wish my mother could have been with us longer. i wish she could have seen chelsea become amother herself. i wish she could have met charlotte.

i wish she could have seen the america we're going to build together.

an america, where if you do your part, you reap the rewards.

where we don't leave anyone out, or anyone behind.

an america where a father can tell his daughter: yes, you can be anything you want to be. evenpresident of the united states.

thank you all. god bless you. and may god bless america.

第2篇 马云在纽约经济俱乐部英语演讲稿

i'm so honored. i never expect there are so many people coming here to listen to my talk. and when i sitting there i feel so important. thank you, thank you very much. before my talk i would like to ask how many people here have used alibaba services. good, not many. [laughs]. and how many of you here have never been to china? never been, never been to china. good, thank you very much.

well, 20 years ago i came to america. my first trip to america, to seattle. before that i learnedso much about america, from my books, from my teachers, from my school, and my parents.and i think i know enough about america. but when i came to america i thought totally wrong.america is not what i learned from the books. and in seattle i found the internet, and then icame back and tell my friends that i'm going to open a company called internet. i invited 24 ofmy friends, had a two-hour discussion. and finally we had a vote. 23 of them against me. "forget about it. there's no such kind of network called internet. don't do it." there's only oneperson who said "jack, i trust you. i don't know what that is, but if you want to try it, go ahead,try it. because you're still young." at that time i was 30 years old.

so i started my business, without knowing anything about computer, without knowing anythingabout business. i started my first company, my wife and i and a school mate. we borrowed[start] from us $1,000 we start the business. it was so difficult. i called myself like a blind manriding on the back of blind tigers. jumping around for the past 20 years i survive today. forthe first three years life was really bad. i remember i tried to borrow us $3,000 from thebanks. it took me three months asking any friends i know to borrow the money.still failed, cozverybody said "jack is telling a lie, because there's no such network called internet in 1996."

so one day, later 1996, china was connected to the internet. i invited ten media friends to myapartment. i want to tell them i'm not telling a lie. there is a network called internet. wewaited three hours and a half to see the first – to download the first picture. and people said "isthat thing going to work?" and i say "yeah, it'll work, but not today. in ten years it'll work." butat least it proved that i was not telling a lie.

i remember when we tried to help our small business to sell online. nobody want to sell becausenobody come to buy. so first week we have seven employees, we buy and sell ourselves. thesecond week somebody start to sell on a website. we buy everything they sell. we have tworooms full of things we bought for new year's, [all garbage] for the first two weeks. in order totell people that it works. it was not easy. since 1995 to 1999 we failed. we go nowhere, ourbusiness, because nothing was ready. in 1999 i invited 18 friends of mine who came to myapartment. we decided to do it again. we call the name alibaba.com. and people say whyalibaba? we believe internet is a treasure island which opens sesame for small business. andwe used alibaba because it's easy to spell, easy to remember. and we want to focus on helpingsmall business.

because at that time we see commerce [with the] american e-commerce they focus onhelping on big companies, they're focusing on helping big companies to save the cost. webelieved china we don't have a lot of big companies, we have so many small business, andsmall business it's so difficult for them to survive. if we can using internet as a technology tohelp small business it'll be fantastic. so we start to say if america is good at helping bigcompanies, just like america is good at making basketball we should play pingpong in china, weshould help the small guys. and we should not helping small guys to save cost, because smallbusiness know how to save the cost, but small business should learn how to make money. soour business is focusing helping small business to make money online.

and we want to make the company last for 102 years. and people are curious – why 102years? because alibaba was born in 1999, last year we had – last century we had one year, thiscentury 100 years, next century one year. 102 across three centuries. we give a clear goal toany employees. don't say we are successful, no matter how much money we raised, no matterhow much money we make, no matter how much we have achieved. don't forget we want tolive 102 years. now, 16 years passed, we have another 86 years to go. because in next 86years, if any time we die we're never successful. when i heard this club is 108 years old i wassurprised and shocked. there's so much we can learn from that.

well, today nobody believed that alibaba could survive, because people say "you are [free],you're tiny" and, you know, and especially when we talk about – when we ipo'd people say "ah,you are alibaba, you are e-commerce. you're like amazon." because in american point of viewamazon probably is the only business model for e-commerce. but no, we are different. thedifference between us and amazon is that we do not buy and sell, but we help small business tobuy and sell. we have 10 million small business on our site buy and sell every day. and we donot deliver our packages, although – ourselves, though we have more than 2 million people helpus to deliver over 30 million packages per day.

we do not own warehouses, but we manage tens and thousands of warehouses for other small,medium sized delivery companies. and we do not own inventories, but we do have more than350 million buyers. we have more than 120 million buyers coming to shop every day on oursite. and also, we sell – our revenue last – our sales last year were us$ 390 billion. and thisyear, possibly, we are going to be bigger than walmart globally. and walmart manage – thatsize of business have more than 2.3 million people; we grow from 18 people to today 34,000people.

and the difference between amazon and us the other is amazon is a shopping center. becausehere e-commerce is commerce, in china e-commerce is a lifestyle. young people, they usinge-commerce to exchange ideas, they communicate, they build up the trust, they build up arecord. it's just like starbucks – you never go to starbucks to test how wonderful coffee is. it'sa lifestyle. and this is how internet e-commerce is changing china.

and what we felt proud of is not how much things we sell. i said this year we'll be bigger thanwalmart – yes, we are proud. we know in five years we will sell us$ 1 trillion. this is my goal,which we think possibly we will make it. we are proud of that but we are more proud becausewe create direct [and indirect] job, 14 million jobs for china. and we've created jobs in thecountryside. we created a lot of jobs for women. over 51 percent of the power sellers on theinternet are women.

so we feel so proud of that. and people say okay, now alibaba did that. what's your next?what's your future cause you are everywhere. we, 80 percent of the buy and the sell online arecreated by our company. our future is that we have to focus on globalizing our business. it'snot only sell more things. we want to make, to globalize the infrastructure of ecommerce. whyinternet ecommerce grow so fast in china than in the usa? because the infrastructure ofcommerce in china was too bad. not like here. you have [click] motors. you have all the shopsoffline, walmart, kmart, everything everywhere. but in china we have nothing nowhere.

so ecommerce in the us is a dessert. it's complementary to the main business. but in chinait becomes the main course. we created the infrastructure. so we think if we globalize ourinfrastructure — the payment, the logistics center, the transparent platform all around theworld. helping the small business around the world to sell everywhere. help the globalconsumers to buy everywhere. our vision is in ten years we will help two billion consumers inthe world to shop online anywhere in the world. you're shopping online with 72 hours you'llreceive the product. and anywhere in china you shop online, you will receive the productswithin 24 hours. and we think our globalization is still focused on helping small business. andhelping them to do business in the most efficient ways. and we think that we will help anotherten million business on our ecommerce platform.

we will empower them. we'll give them the traffic. we'll give them the payment system.we'll give them the logistics system so they can do business anywhere easily and quickly. andwe will help. we will have 40 percent of our business outside china. today we only have twopercent of our business outside china. so people keep on asking, now you are big. you raisedthat much money. what's your play in america? people say well are you going to come? whenare you going to come to invade america? when i going to compete with amazon? when igoing to compete with ebay? well i would say we show great respect for ebay and amazon.but i think the opportunity and the, the strategy for us is helping small business in americago to china, sell their products to china.

today in china, the middle class for china is almost the same as the american population.and we think in ten years it will be more than half a billion chinese people will be middle class.the demanding for middle class, the demanding for good products, good service was sopowerful, so strong. and i think china today cannot afford the good products, good service tothem. and then next is that china has been focused on exporting in the past 20 years. and ithink next ten, ten-twenty years china we should be focusing on importing. chinese shouldlearn to buy. chinese should spend the money. chinese should buy a lot of things from globally.and i think that american small business, american branded products you should use theinternet, go to china.

past 20 years big companies of america is already all over china. but it's the greatopportunity for using the ecommerce for small business to go to america. in the past yearswe have helped a lot of american farmers selling things to china. for example the seattlecherries, you will never believe that the ambassador, the american ambassador to china, hecame to us say, jack can you help us to sell the cherries in seattle. i say how can we sellcherries? the cherries still on the trees. and we started place order, 80,000 families booked theorder. and when we got the order we ship, we pick up the cherries and ship to china within 24hours 80,000 families, 160 tons of cherries were sold. and last year we sold over 300 tons ofcherries. and i don't know what's this year about.

we also helped alaska seafood. we helped canada to sell the lobsters. the lobster we soldprobably ten years they cannot sell. and we also have a lot of american branded companiesusing our site to sell. costco the company, they sold 600 tons of nuts on our site for the firstmonth. and for the first month they're using alibaba 6.5 million us dollars. so i think if we canhelp to sell lobsters, if we can help sell the cherries, why we cannot help these small, mediumsize companies to china using our system? so this is what i want, and also i want to take oneday for example november, november 11th, the [singles'] day. we make that a shopping day.last year for that day we sold 9.7 billion us dollars. and for the first minute shopping we have24 million people rushed in for the first minute. and this year we guess the number was scary,so my purpose coming here that we need more american products to china.

we have a hungry 100 million people coming to buy every day. so this is why we come here.we not come here to compete. we come here to bring the small business. my vision is that inten, twenty years anywhere you buy anywhere, sell anywhere. philippine people can buysalmon on norway. norway people can sell things to argentina. argentina can buy and sell tochina. this is how the internet is going to change. and lastly i want to say we have changedthe china. we feel proud of that, and we think that the change, the power of change is sopowerful. the first revolution of technology we have the, the organization of business called afactory. and had our first world war because of the strength of the arms and muscles. thesecond revolution energy, we have the organization called companies, and have the secondworld war.

this time internet. the data, and i think we have a new business called platform. and thethird world war is going to happen. and this war is not between nations, this war we worktogether against the disease, the poverty, the climate change. and i believe this is our future.the human being, the nations shall unite together. rely on the young people using not theguns, using computers, using the data to solve the human problem, solve the societyproblems. and this is what i'm passionate about. it's not about the money, it's about dreams.it's not only the technology change the world, it's the dreams you believe that change theworld. and we know the way, the way is not easy. as i was told in the past 20 years doinginternet business in china, today is difficult, and tomorrow is much more difficult. but the dayafter tomorrow is beautiful. most people die tomorrow evening, if you don't work hard. thankyou very much.

第3篇 彭丽媛在纽约联合国总部教育的高级别活动上英文演讲稿

director-general bokova

博科娃总干事

ladies and gentlemen

女士们、先生们：

it gives me a great pleasure to join you for this important initiative as the un marks its 70th anniversary.

在联合国纪念成立70周年之际，我很荣幸能够参加这一重要倡议的相关活动。

education is very close in my heart. my father grew up in a very small village in china. in those days, not many villagers could read. so my father opened a night school to teach them how to read. with his help, many people learned to write their own names; with his help many people learned to read newspapers for the first time; with his help, many women were able to teach their children how to read. as his daughter, i know what education means to the people, especially those without it.

我对教育感念至深。我的父亲生长在中国一个非常小的村庄里。在那些岁月里，许多村民都不识字。因此我的父亲开办了一所夜校帮助他们识字。在他的帮助下，许多人学会了写自己的名字;在他的帮助下，许多人有生以来第一次读报;在他的帮助下，许多妇女开始有能力教自己的孩子读书写字。作为她的女儿，我知道教育对一个人来说意味着什么，特别是那些没有文化的人。

after generations of hard work, china has come a long way in education. i myself am a beneficiary of that progress. otherwise i would never become a soprano and a professor of musical. i am following my father’s footsteps by teaching at china’s conservatory of music to help continue china’s success story.

在经过几代人的努力，中国的教育取得了巨大的进步。我自己就是这一进步的受益者。否则，我不会成为一个女高音和一名声乐教授。我在中国音乐学院教书，沿着父亲的足迹，帮助复制中国的成功故事。

i want to thank director-general bokova and unesco for naming me the special envoy for women and girls education. i am truly honored to work with the un and do something about global education. i have visited many schools around the world. i’ve seen first-hand on how much we can do for education.

我要感谢教科文组织任命我为“促进女童和妇女教育特使”。我对与联合国一道工作、为了全球教育做些工作感到由衷的荣幸。我访问了世界上的许多学校，我亲眼看到，我们在教育工作上还有很多的事情可以做。

education is about women and the girls. it is important for girls to go to school because they will become their children’s first teacher someday. but women still account for over half of the world’s poor in population and 60% of adults who can’t read. education is crucial in the addressing such inequalities.in china, spring bud education program has helped over 3 million girls go back to school. many of them have finished university education and they are doing well at work.

教育事关妇女和女童。女童入学非常重要，因为她们有一天会成为自己孩子的第一位老师。然而，妇女依然占世界贫穷人口的一半，她们中有六成成年人不识字。教育是解决此类不平等的关键。在中国，“春蕾计划”已经帮助300万女童重返校园。许多人读完了大学，并在工作岗位上表现出色。

education is about equality. in poor countries and regions the number of school dropouts is astonishing. we call for more educational resources to these places.

教育事关平等。在贫穷国家和地区，辍学儿童的人数高得惊人。我们呼吁将更多的教育资源投入这些地方。

education is about the young people. young people are the future.education is important because it not only gave young people knowledge and skills but also help them become responsible citizens.

教育事关年轻人。年轻人是我们的未来。教育之所以重要是因为它不仅给年轻人带来知识，还帮助他们成为负责任的公民。

as the unesco special envoy and the mother myself my commitment to education for all will never change. many years ago my father made a small difference in his village. together we can make a big difference in the world.

作为教科文组织的“促进女童和妇女教育特使”和一名母亲，我对人人享有教育的承诺永不改变。许多年前，我的父亲使他的村庄发生了改变。团结起来，我们可以使这个世界得到巨大改变。

i was once asked about my chinese dream. i said i hope all children especially girls can have access to good education. this is my chinese dream. i believe one day education first will no longer be a dream, it will be a reality enjoyed by every young woman on this planet. thank you very much.

我曾经被问道自己的梦想是什么。我说我希望所有的儿童、特别是女童都可以接受良好的教育。这就是我的中国梦。我相信有一天“教育优先”将不再是一个梦想，它将变成这个星球上每一个妇女都能享有的现实。谢谢大家。
