Ted 中英对照演讲稿 Rita Pierson: Every kid needs a champion 每个孩子都需要一个冠军 I have spent my entire life either at the schoolhouse, on the way to the schoolhouse, or talking about what happens in the schoolhouse. Both my parents were educators, my maternal grandparents were educators, and for the past 40 years Ive done the same thing.
