2013级新生开学典礼讲话

Tao Wenhao

15 September 2013

Good morning, dear boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, my warmest welcome to the School of Foreign Languages, Beijing Normal University at Zhuhai (BNUZ). You have become part of the SchooI of Foreign Languages from now on. I am happy to tell you that this year we have enrolled 345 students of four levels: they are four-year undergraduate students for Bachelor’s degrees, postgraduate students for Master’s degrees, students of associate degrees for Bachelor’s degrees and 2+2 students of international programs. I believe that each of you is excited at the moment in the new environment for your new journey for a higher degree.

亲爱的同学们,早上好!我们热烈欢迎你们考入北师大珠海分校外国语学院!现在在座的各位都是外国语学院的一员。我很高兴的告诉大家今年我院的招生报到人数共有345人,并且我院共完成了四个层次的招生计划。这四个层次是:硕士研究生,四年制本科生,两年制专升本的同学和国际课程班2+2的同学们。此时此刻,来到新环境,踏上新的征程,攻读更高的学位,大家一定激动万分!

On this wonderful occasion, I am as excited as you. I would like to share with you my happiness and excitement. At the moment, my greatest feeling is I am filled with too many things to say to you, and I will make the choice of starting with the introduction to the School of Foreign Languages which was established on June 16th, 2003. Just two months ago, the School of Foreign Languages had her tenth anniversary with her 82 members of staff. Of all the teaching staff members, there are 30 native teachers of English or Japanese which accounts for nearly a half. The School of Foreign Languages is one of the largest schools of the university. Besides more than 1,300 students of English and Japanese majors we have, the School of Foreign Languages undertakes the foreign language teaching of about 23, 000 non-English majors of the university.

在这个美妙的时刻,我和大家心情一样的激动,我非常愿意和大家一起分享我们的快乐和激动心情。我此时此刻有好多话要说,但是首先还是从介绍我们的学院开始。北师大珠海分校外国语学院于2003年6月16日成立。就在两个月前,外国语学院进行了10周年院庆。我们现有教职工82人,其中有30位外教,外教几乎占了我们教师人数的一半。外国语学院也是我校最大的学院之一。我院现有一千三百多名英语专业和日语专业学生,也同时承担全校2万3千多名同学的公共外语课程。

My dear students of all, both English majors and Japanese, 2013 seems to be a year of dreams and youth for the whole nation of Chinese. We have Chinese Dream, which is elaborated as the dreams of everybody of all Chinese people. For each of us, we have our own dreams as well. All of you had dreamed to be a college student when you were in the high school. For this dream, you came and are gathering here. Your dream has come true! Congratulations!

亲爱的同学们,无论你们是英语专业还是日语专业,2013年对于全中国人民来说似乎是个追梦年,又是个青春追忆年。比如对于祖国来说有“中国梦”,中国梦被解释为每一位中华儿女之梦。亲爱的同学们,我们也有自己的梦想,如你们在中学时都怀着上大学的梦想,带着这个梦想,我们在这里相聚了,你们的梦想已经实现!祝贺你们,亲爱的同学们!

Some of you may have watched the film “Ode to the youth”, some may have watched “You are the Apple of My Eye”, and some may have watched “Tiny Times”, which have moved you either in tears or in the deepest part of your heart and soul. Why are they so moving and emotional? Because each of you and each of us has or has had our dream and youth. The dreams and the Youth are the permanent topics for everybody, they can always touch the most sensitive part of us, our first love, our first memory and even our first silliness. We had all been here through our dreams and youth. Whatever they are, they are so beautiful.

在座的各位有些可能看过电影《致青春》,有的可能看过《那些年,我们一起追的女孩》,有的也有可能看过《小时代》。我们在看这些电影的时候,有的感动的热泪盈眶,有的灵魂深处被深深的触动了。为什么这些电影这么动人,令人感伤呢?因为我们都有梦想和青春或有过梦想和青春。梦想和青春是人类永恒的话题!梦想和青春总能打动我们最敏感或最脆弱的神经,如我们的第一次恋爱,我们的第一次记忆,甚至我们第一次犯傻!我们带着梦想和青春一路走来,在这里相聚!不管我们各自的梦想是什么,不管我们的青春如何,她们总是那么的美好。

Dreams and youth are so beautiful, aren’t they? Dreams are actually the guide of human life without which we will lose our way in our journey of life. Youth is the most precious in the world, because it will always disappear and never come back. So what shall we do with dreams and youth? The answer is we shall always set up new dreams so that youth will take the most precious value in the years of your university days.

梦想与青春是如此美好!因为梦想是人生的航程中指南针,失去梦想的人一定会迷失方向。青春易老,青年时光总是一去不复返,所以青春是人生最宝贵的财富。那么我们怎样才能与梦想和青春同步呢?答案是:我们必须时刻建立新的梦想,在大学的四年青春时光里,实现人生最美丽的价值,这样才不枉过黄金般的青春年华。

What shall we do in the university days? Here as dean of the School of Foreign Languages, I would like you to follow the spirit and the motto of our school. They are: love, knowledge, morality and integrity. We would like all of you to become a person of broad love, strong knowledge with high moral standard and a person of nice character.

那么大学四年我们如何度过呢?作为你们的院长,我要对你们提出要求:即严守我们的院训“博文博爱,厚德厚道”的教诲。这是我们外国语学院的精神和灵魂所在。我们外国语学院就是要培养出这样的人,他具有博大的胸怀,博学多才,高尚的情操,他是一个品格完美的人。

First, try to be a person of love. This love means a lot to you, it means not only the love for a girl or a boy but a broad love for whatever positive in the world. Learn to love your major, either English or Japanese. Your major shall be with you for the rest of your life whatever you are in the future. Learn to love your teachers and classmates who will always be your best supporters and friends. Because they are the purest without anything negative or snobbish that is reflected in the society. You will realize this once you graduate from us and begin to work for your living. Our experience tells us that a person of love will win and step to success much more easily.

首先要成为一个具有博爱的人。这种爱意味深长,不光指男男女女的恋爱,而是对于世界上任何正面的事物具有博大的胸怀,爱之深远。热爱自己的专业,不管是英语还是日语。无论你将来的职业如何,你的专业将伴随你终身。也要爱你的老师和同学,他们对你来说将是最忠实的朋友和盟友,因为大学时光的老师和朋友是最纯洁的,没有社会上的污染和势利。这一点你会在毕业后走入工作岗位时,充分认识到。我以一位长者的经验告诉你们,一个具有博爱的人,在社会上一定会更容易胜出,更容易取得成功。

Second, be open to all knowledge and learn to be critical to any new things. Once you have read the sentence: Knowledge is Power. I will tell you, yes, it is power. But more than knowledge, a mind of critical thinking is more powerful and suggested. In this way, you can be a creative person in the future. This is the requirement of the School and my requirement for you, too.

其次要博学多思。对于任何新生事物都要学会批评,具有自己的判断力。大家肯定读过这样一句话:知识就是力量。是的,知识就是力量,我同意,但是我还要告诉大家,除了知识就是力量外,更重要的是,一个具有思辨能力的脑袋更具有力量,更是我们所推崇的。只有这样,你才能成为一个具有创新能力的人,这是外国语学院对你的要求,也是我对你的要求。

Here I would like to share with you some data: up to June, 2013, 45 graduates of the 215 English majors of 2013, accounting for 21%, have been enrolled by universities at home and abroad to further their studies as postgraduate students; of these M.A candidates, 10 were enrolled by such prestigious universities in the Chinese Mainland as Shanghai International Studies University, Beijing Language and Culture University, Beijing Normal University, East China Normal University, and Nanjing Normal University, and 35 by universities outside the Chinese Mainland, such as, the University of Edinburgh, York University, Newcastle University, Sidney University, the University of Melbourne, Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Macao University. They are so exciting, aren’t they? My sincere hope is you become part of them four years later.

在此我想和大家分享几个数据,截止到2013年6月份,外国语学院英语专业215位毕业生中共有45位同学考取国内外名牌大学研究生,占毕业生总人数的21%,其中10位在国内就读, 35在国外就读。这些名牌大学有英国的爱丁堡大学、杜伦大学、莱斯特大学、纽卡斯尔大学和格来斯哥大学、萨里大学、赫尔大学、约克大学、卡迪夫大学和索尔福德大学;香港中文大学、香港理工大学、香港浸会大学;澳大利亚的墨尔本大学、悉尼大学;澳门大学、澳门城市大学和澳门科技大学;法国的巴黎第七大学、里昂第二大学、鲁昂商学院和南特高等商学院;国内的上海外国语大学、北京语言大学、北京师范大学、华东师范大学、南京师范大学等。这些数字非常令人振奋,鼓舞人心,所以我真诚希望,四年后你就是他们的一部分。

Third, learn to be a person of high morality and integrity. This is by no means easy. I often say to my students that no matter how learned you are, you can be a worse evil if you are a person of no morality and unhealthy character. In the four years of the university, your philosophy of life will be established, so it is critical time for you to develop a positive attitude towards life. We will provide you with the freedom of thoughts and the opportunity of character development and by the time you graduate, I am confident that you are a mature person of good morality and nice personality. A person who loves all and is loved by all.

再者,做一个厚德厚道之人。这一点不容易。我经常对我的学生说,无论你的学问多高,如果你没有高尚事物道德品行,人格不健全,你比一般的坏人更坏。同学们,大学四年是你们人生观形成之时,所以你们必须培养自己的正面人生观,为此我们将竭尽全力给大家提供一个追求思想自由的场所、一种塑造人格和品行的机会,到大家毕业时,我相信你们将会具有高尚的品格和健全的人格,是一个对社会具有贡献的人,也是一个人见人爱的人。

To summarize my speech today, the key words are: dreams, youth, love, knowledge, morality and integrity! I will witness your realization of your new dreams, your faithfulness and completeness of youth, your broad love, your good character of morality and finally you become a person of integrity of foreign languages. This is what the School of Foreign languages will do together with you.

Thank you!

回顾我今天的讲话,关键词是:追逐梦想、抓住青春、博文博爱、厚德厚道。我要见证你们在外国语学院实现你们新的梦想,度过完美的青春,培养自己无疆的大爱,崇尚厚德厚道,做一个完美的外语人!外国语学院愿意和你们一起奋斗!

谢谢!
