Esteemed Ladies and Gentlemen, distinguished guest, good morning. I am excited to address you on this stage today. On behalf of all the graduates of Shandong University’s School of Information and technology, I would like to thank all the people who cared about and encouraged us as we worked towards our goals. Especially, I would like to thank my parents. It is they who give me great strength for my every steps taken in my life.

Four years ago, at an age when some youngster farming and harvesting, at an age some coevals handing a rifle to defend our country, at the age of 19 or 20, we determined to unravel the secrets of mathematics and the mysteries of the inexhaustibly running charges. That was my dream; that was, is, and will be one of the most important choices of my life.

Four years is too long for a ten-year old boy, for it means four birthday cakes and 20 centimeters taller. But for us, it runs too fast to catch up with. However, so many signals strongly prove that the four years definitely exists: piles of books, scholarships in our account, the unforgettable breathtaking view of our campus, songs and laughter in our dormitory, friends sharing the same ambitions, and our first sweet love… Ladies and Gentlemen, as we leave this campus, a new page has been unraveled. It is time to break the bad habit of expecting something for nothing. Let us take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and families but for our society and country. Ladies and Gentlemen, there is

no doubt that we are facing one of the most serious economical crises in our history. In order to achieve our goal and to renew our country, we must meet challenges abroad as well as at home. In this new century, let us begin to make contribution to the world and to all human beings with energy and hope with faith and discipline. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up the enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. However long and hard the road may be, let us go forward together with our enthusiasm and our united strength.

Our society is like a big complicated family in the midst of a terrible argument. I believe that one way…one way to make it better is to find ways to listen to each other, to understand our differences, and to work constantly to remind each other of our common humanity. I know you will find your own ways to help with this healing, too.

This morning, we share with the world nearly 3,000 new graduates who are ready for this urgent and timeless problem set.

You came to MIT with exceptional qualities of your own. And now, after years of focused and intense dedication, you leave us, equipped with a distinctive set of skills and steeped in this community’s deepest values – a commitment t ……此处隐藏6989个字……nguard against a new separatism that seems to have infected our ranks, a vanguard against those forces that, in the name of our great democracy, have managed to diminish it. Then, you can change human nature just a bit, to appeal, as Lincoln also implored us, to appeal to "the better angels of our nature." That's the objective. And I know, I know you can do it.

Ok. Rounding third.

Let me speak directly to the graduating class. (Watch out. Here comes the advice.)

Remember: Black lives matter. All lives matter.

Reject fundamentalism wherever it raises its ugly head. It's not civilized. Choose to live in theBedford Falls of "It's a Wonderful Life," not its oppressive opposite, Pottersville.

Do not descend too deeply into specialism. Educate all of your parts. You will be healthier.

Replace cynicism with its old-fashioned antidote, skepticism.

Don't confuse monetary success with excellence. The poet Robert Penn Warren once warnedme that "careerism is death."

Try not to make the other wrong.

Be curious, not cool.

Remember, insecurity makes liars of us all.

Listen to jazz. A lot, a lot. It is our music.

Read. The book is still the greatest manmade machine of all – not the car, not the TV, not thecomputer or the smartphone.

Do not allow our social media to segregate us into ever smaller tribes and clans, fiercely andsometimes appropriately loyal to our group, but also capable of metastasizing into profounddistrust of the other.

Serve your country. By all means serve your country. But insist that we fight the right wars.Governments always forget that.

Convince your government that the real threat, as Lincoln knew, comes from within.Governments always forget that, too. Do not let your government outsource honesty,transparency or candor. Do not let your government outsource democracy.

Vote. Elect good leaders. When he was nominated in 1936, Franklin Delano Roosevelt said, "Better the occasional faults of a government that lives in a spirit of charity than theconsistent omissions of a government frozen in the ice of its own indifference." We alldeserve the former. And insist on it.

Insist that we support science and the arts, especially the arts. They have nothing to do withthe actual defense of the country – they just make our country worth defending.

Be about the "unum," not the "pluribus."

Do not lose your enthusiasm. In its Greek etymology, the word enthusiasm means simply, "God in us."

And even though lightning still isn't distributed right, try not to be a fool. It just gets MarkTwain riled up a bit.

And if you ever find yourself in Huck's spot, if you've "got to decide betwixt two things," do theright thing. Don't forget to tear up the letter. He didn't go to hell – and you won't either.

So we come to an end of something today – and for you also a very special beginning. Godspeed to you all.
