米歇爾·奧巴馬在北京大學(xué)演講英語(yǔ)

　　You see, through the wonders of modern technology, our world is more connected than ever before.

　　Ideas can cross ocean with the click of a button.

　　Companies can do business and complete with companies across the globe.

　　And we can text, email and skype with people on every continent.

　　So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a semester-it’s 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…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.

　　No one country can confront them alone...the only way forward is together.

　　你們看，通過(guò)現(xiàn)代技術(shù)奇跡，我們的世界比以往任何時(shí)候都更多地聯(lián)系在一起。

　　思想可以通過(guò)點(diǎn)擊按鈕跨越海洋。全球各地的公司可以進(jìn)行業(yè)務(wù)往來(lái)和相互竟?fàn)?。我們可以與各大洲的人們通過(guò)短信、電子郵件和Skype進(jìn)行溝通。

　　因此，出國(guó)留學(xué)不只是以開(kāi)心的方式度過(guò)一個(gè)學(xué)期——它正迅速成為全球化經(jīng)濟(jì)中取得成功的關(guān)鍵。

　　因?yàn)橐咴诋?dāng)今職場(chǎng)的前沿，只在學(xué)校里取得好成績(jī)是不夠的，還應(yīng)擁有國(guó)境外的真實(shí)體驗(yàn)：體驗(yàn)完全不同的語(yǔ)言、文化和社會(huì)。

　　正如中國(guó)的一句古話所說(shuō)：“讀萬(wàn)卷書，不如行萬(wàn)里路。”

　　我想要說(shuō)的是，出國(guó)留學(xué)絕不僅是改善你們自己的未來(lái)，它也關(guān)乎塑造你們的國(guó)家、關(guān)乎我們共有的世界的未來(lái)。

　　因?yàn)槲覀冞@個(gè)時(shí)代的決定性挑戰(zhàn)一一無(wú)論是氣侯變化、經(jīng)濟(jì)機(jī)遇，還是核武器擴(kuò)散一一這些都是我們共同的挑戰(zhàn)。

　　沒(méi)有任何一個(gè)國(guó)家能夠單獨(dú)應(yīng)對(duì)它們……唯一的出路就是共同攜手。

　　米歇爾現(xiàn)身說(shuō)法談留學(xué)
