Entering the 21stcentury, mankind is confronted with more complicated economic and social problems.The cultural element will have a more important role to play in the new century.Different nations may speak different languages, but their hearts and feelings are interlinked.Different cultures present manifold features, yet they often share the same rational core elements that can always be passed on by people.The civilizations of different nations are all fruits of human wisdom and contribution to human progress; they call for mutual respect.Conflicts triggered by ignorance or prejudice are sometimes more dreadful than those caused by contradictory interests.We propose to seek common ground in the spirit of equality and tolerance, and carry on extensive inter-civilization dialogue and closer cultural exchanges.
In his poem, Malvern Hill, the famous American poet Herman Melville wrote:
Wag the world how it will,
Leaves must be green in Spring.
The youth represents the future of the nation and the world.Faced with the bright prospect of China-US relations in the new century, I hope the young people ofChinaand theUSwill join their hands more closely.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Chinese forefathers formulated their goals as follows:
To ordain conscience for Heaven and Earth,
To secure life and fortune for the people,
To continue lost teachings for past sages,
To establish peace for all future generations.
Today, mankind is in the middle of a period of drastic social change.It would be a wise approach for all countries to carry forward their fine cultural heritages by tracing back their origin, passing on the essentials, learning from one another and breaking new grounds.My appeal is that we work together with our wisdom and strength for the progress and development of human civilization.Our success will do credit to our forbears and bring benefit to our posterity.In this way, our children and their children will be able to live in a more peaceful, more tranquil and more prosperous world.I am convinced that such an immensely bright and beautiful tomorrow will arrive!
Thank you.
校长先生，
女士们，先生们：
衷心感谢萨莫斯校长的盛情邀请。
哈佛是世界着名的高等学府，精英荟萃，人才辈出。建校367年来，曾出过7位总统，40多位诺贝尔奖获得者。这是你们的光荣。
今天，我很高兴站在哈佛讲台上同你们面对面交流。我是一个普通的中国人。我出生在一个教师家庭，有过苦难的童年，曾长期工作在中国艰苦地区。中国有2500个县（区），我去过1800个。我深爱着我的祖国和人民。
我今天演讲的题目是把目光投向中国。
中美两国相隔遥远，经济水平和文化背景差异很大。但愿我的这篇讲演，能增进我们之间的相互了解。
要了解一个真实的、发展变化着的、充满希望的中国，就有必要了解中国的昨天、今天和明天。
昨天的中国，是一个古老并创造了灿烂文明的大国。
大家知道，在人类发展史上，曾经出现过西亚两河流域的巴比伦文明，北非尼罗河流域的古埃及文明，地中海北岸的古希腊罗马文明，南亚印度河流域的古文明，发源于黄河长江流域的中华文明，等等。由于地震、洪水、瘟疫、灾荒，由于异族入侵和内部动乱，这些古文明，有的衰落了，有的消亡了，有的融入了其它文明。而中华文明，以其顽强的凝聚力和隽永的魅力，历经沧桑而完整地延续了下来。拥有5000年的文明史，这是我们中国人的骄傲。(责任编辑：www.360gaokao.com)
