Distinguished guests, esteemed faculty members, proud parents, and fellow graduates, good afternoon. Today, as we gather here to celebrate our college graduation, I would like to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey that has brought us to this point.
For many of us, college has been a transformative experience. It has been a time of self-discovery, personal growth, and intellectual exploration. We have had the privilege of learning from brilliant minds, engaging in thought-provoking discussions, and expanding our horizons. We have been challenged, inspired, and empowered to pursue our passions and make a difference in the world.
However, our college experience would not have been possible without the unwavering support of our families and friends. They have been our rock, our cheerleaders, and our biggest source of motivation. They have celebrated our successes, offered a shoulder to lean on during times of struggle, and believed in us even when we doubted ourselves. To our loved ones, thank you for your unwavering love and encouragement. This day is as much yours as it is ours.
As we stand on the precipice of the next chapter of our lives, let us remember the values that our college education has instilled in us. Let us embrace diversity, empathy, and open-mindedness. Let us strive for excellence in all that we do, while staying true to our core values and principles. Let us be lifelong learners, continuously seeking knowledge and growth.
In today's rapidly changing world, we will undoubtedly face numerous challenges. However, it is in these challenges that we will find our greatest opportunities for growth and impact. Let us not be afraid to take risks, to step outside of our comfort zones, and to pursue our passions with unwavering determination. Let us dare to dream big and to make our mark on the world.
Lastly, as we move forward, let us not forget the importance of giving back. We have been blessed with a high-quality education, and it is our duty to use our knowledge and skills to uplift others. Whether it is through volunteering, mentorship, or advocating for social change, let us strive to make a positive difference in the lives of those around us.
In conclusion, today marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. As we leave behind the familiar comforts of college, let us embrace the unknown with courage and optimism. Let us be grateful for the opportunities that lie ahead and the lessons we have learned along the way. Class of [year], congratulations on this momentous achievement. I have no doubt that each and every one of us has the power to shape a brighter future.
Thank you.

Answering speech
Dear professors and dear friends of China Jiliang University,
I’m honored to address you on behalf of all the graduations this year.
I would like to thank my parents, classmates, and friends who helped us ,and encouraged and supported us as we worked towards to our graduate degrees.
I also want to thank Jiliang’s faculty members who served as our instructors，mentor, and friends, relatives, like Prof.Yu, Prof.Gao, Mrs. Liang. Through their commitments, they have inspired us to achieve and guided us to our dream.
On this stage, at my graduation ceremony, when I look back my four years at Jiliang, my mind is filled with memories. May be you will ask me: do you have special to share? Yes, I want to share few simple but critical suggestions with you and with for the coming juniors:
First, be work hard and think smart.
Secondly, believe things happened for a reason.
Thirdly, just as Jobs said at the graduation ceremony in Stanford University, stay hungry, stay foolish.
Today, we will graduate from China Jiliang University, but we will be with Jiliang forever. Let us think forward and work together to make the new history of China Jiliang University.
Thank you.
大学毕业典礼英语演讲稿 篇四
Unlike any other creature on this planet, humans can learn and understand, without having experienced. They can think themselves into other people’s minds, imagine themselves into other people’s places.
Of course, this is a power, like my brand of fictional magic, that is morally neutral. One might use such an ability to manipulate, or control, just as much as to understand or sympathise.
And many prefer not to exercise their imaginations at all. They choose to remain comfortably within the bounds of their own experience, never troubling to wonder how it would feel to have been born other than they are. They can refuse to hear screams or to peer inside cages; they can close their minds and hearts to any suffering that does not touch them personally; they can refuse to know.
I might be tempted to envy people who can live that way, except that I do not think they have any fewer nightmares than I do. Choosing to live in narrow spaces can lead to a form of mental agoraphobia, and that brings its own terrors. I think the wilfully unimaginative see more monsters. They are often more afraid.
What is more, those who choose not to empathize may enable real monsters. For without ever committing an act of outright evil ourselves, we collude with it, through our own apathy.
One of the many things I learned at the end of that Classics corridor down which I ventured at the age of 18, in search of something I could not then define, was this, written by the Greek author Plutarch: What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.
That is an astonishing statement and yet proven a thousand times every day of our lives. It expresses, in part, our inescapable connection with the outside world, the fact that we touch other people’s lives simply by existing.
But how much more are you, Harvard graduates of 2008, likely to touch other people’s lives? Your intelligence, your capacity for hard work, the education you have earned and received, give you unique status, and unique responsibilities. Even your nationality sets you apart. The great majority of you belong to the world’s only remaining superpower. The way you vote, the way you live, the way you protest, the pressure you bring to bear on your government, has an impact way beyond your borders. That is your privilege, and your burden.
If you choose to use your status and influence to raise your voice on behalf of those who have no voice; if you choose to identify not only with the powerful, but with the powerless; if you retain the ability to imagine yourself into the lives of those who do not have your advantages, then it will not only be your proud families who celebrate your existence, but thousands and millions of people whose reality you have helped transform for the better. We do not need magic to change the world, we carry all the power we need inside ourselves already: we have the power to imagine better.
I am nearly finished. I have one last hope for you, which is something that I already had at 21. The friends with whom I sat on graduation day have been my friends for life. They are my children’s godparents, the people to whom I’ve been able to turn in times of trouble, friends who have been kind enough not to sue me when I’ve used their names for Death Eaters. At our graduation we were bound by enormous affection, by our shared experience of a time that could never come again, and, of course, by the knowledge that we held certain photographic evidence that would be exceptionally valuable if any of us ran for Prime Minister.
So today, I can wish you nothing better than similar friendships. And tomorrow, I hope that even if you remember not a single word of mine, you remember those of Seneca, another of those old Romans I met when I fled down the Classics corridor, in retreat from career ladders, in search of ancient wisdom:

Madam President Faust， members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers，faculty， family， friends， and， most importantly， todays graduates，Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you.
I am not sure I can live up to the high standards of Harvard Commencement speakers. Lastyear， J.K. Rowling， the billionaire novelist， who started as a classics student， graced thispodium. The year before， Bill Gates， the mega-billionaire philanthropist and computer nerdstood here. Today， sadly， you have me. I am not wealthy， but at least I am a nerd.
I am grateful to receive an honorary degree from Harvard， an honor that means more to methan you might care to imagine. You see， I was the academic black sheep of my family. Myolder brother has an M.D./Ph.D. from MIT and Harvard while my younger brother has a lawdegree from Harvard. When I was awarded a Nobel Prize， I thought my mother would besatisfied. Not so. When I called her on the morning of the announcement， she replied， "Thatsnice， but when are you going to visit me next." Now， as the last brother with a degree fromHarvard， maybe， at last， she will be satisfied.
Another difficulty with giving a Harvard commencement address is that some of you maydisapprove of the fact that I have borrowed material from previous speeches. I ask that youforgive me for two reasons.
First， in order to have impact， it is important to deliver the same message more than once. Inscience， it is important to be the first person to make a discovery， but it is even more importantto be the last person to make that discovery.
Second， authors who borrow from others are following in the footsteps of the best. Ralph WaldoEmerson， who graduated from Harvard at the age of 18， noted "All my best thoughts werestolen by the ancients." Picasso declared "Good artists borrow. Great artists steal." Why shouldcommencement speakers be held to a higher standard?
I also want to point out the irony of speaking to graduates of an institution that would haverejected me， had I the chutzpah to apply. I am married to "Dean Jean，" the former dean ofadmissions at Stanford. She assures me that she would have rejected me， if given the chance.When I showed her a draft of this speech， she objected strongly to my use of the word"rejected." She never rejected applicants; her letters stated that "we are unable to offer youadmission." I have difficulty understanding the difference. After all， deans of admissions ofhighly selective schools are in reality， "deans of rejection." Clearly， I have a lot to learn aboutmarketing.
My address will follow the classical sonata form of commencement addresses. The firstmovement， just presented， were light-hearted remarks. This next movement consists ofunsolicited advice， which is rarely valued， seldom remembered， never followed. As Oscar Wildesaid， "The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself."So， here comes the advice. First， every time you celebrate an achievement， be thankful tothose who made it possible. Thank your parents and friends who supported you， thank yourprofessors who were inspirational， and especially thank the other professors whose less-than-brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. Going forward， the ability to teach yourself is thehallmark of a great liberal arts education and will be the key to your success. To your fellowstudents who have added immeasurably to your education during those late night discussions，hug them. Also， of course， thank Harvard. Should you forget， theres an alumni association toremind you. Second， in your future life， cultivate a generous spirit. In all negotiations， dontbargain for the last， little advantage. Leave the change on the table. In your collaborations，always remember that "credit" is not a conserved quantity. In a successful collaboration，everybody gets 90 percent of the credit.
