比尔盖茨斯坦福大学毕业演讲稿.docx

　　Stanford University 　　BILL GATES: Congratulations, class of 2014! 　　比尔·盖茨：2014届毕业生，祝贺你们顺利毕业 　　(Cheers)(欢呼) 　　Melinda and I are excited to be here. It would be a thrill for anyone to be invited to speak at a Stanford commencement, but its especially gratifying for us. Stanford is rapidly becoming the favorite university for members of our family, and its long been a favorite university for Microsoft and our foundation. 　　我和梅琳达怀着激动的心情与你们欢聚在此共贺毕业。能受邀到斯坦福大学学位授予典礼上做演讲是一件让人激动的事，对我们而言，这尤为荣幸。斯坦福大学正日渐成为我们家庭成员最喜爱的大学。而长久以来，斯坦福也是微软以及比尔与梅琳达基金会最喜爱的一所大学。” 　　Our formula has been to get the smartest, most creative people working on the most important problems. It turns out that a disproportionate number of those people are at Stanford. (Cheers). 　　我们一直致力于让最聪颖有创造力的人攻克最为重要的问题。结果证明，一大部分这样的人才都来自于斯坦福校园。(欢呼) 　　Right now, we have more than 30 foundation research projects underway here. When we want to learn more about the immune system to help cure the worst diseases, we work with Stanford. When we want to understand the changing landscape of higher education in the United States, so that more low-income students get college degrees, we work with Stanford. This is where genius lives. 　　如今，我们在这里进行着30多个研究项目。当我们想要通过对免疫系统的研究来寻找治愈世界上最可怕疾病的方法，我们需要斯坦福。当我们需要通过对美国高等教育的研究来帮助低收入学生上大学时，我们亦需要斯坦福。这便是人才的摇篮。 　　Theres a flexibility of mind here, an openness to change, an eagerness for whats new. This is where people come to discover the future, and have fun doing it. 　　在这里，有着灵活的思维，对于改变的开放态度以及对新鲜事物的渴求。在这里，人们善于发现新事物，并乐享这份经历。 　　MELINDA GATES: Now, some people call you all nerds and we hear that you claim that label with pride. (Cheers and Applause). 　　梅琳达?盖茨：当下，一些人用书呆子这样词语称呼你们，而我们听说你们正为这个称呼而倍感骄傲。(欢呼和掌声) 　　BILL GATES: Well, so do we. (Cheers and Applause) 　　比尔盖茨：嗯，我们与你们同在。(欢呼和掌声) 　　BILL GATES: My normal glasses really arent all that different. (Laughter) 　　比尔盖茨：我的这副普通眼镜也没多大差异嘛。(笑声) 　　There are so many remarkable things going on here at this campus, but if Melinda and I had to put into one word what we love m
