. . 何江哈佛演讲视频附双语全文 近日，哈佛毕业典礼上迎来了一位特殊的学生代表演讲人，他就是一名来自湖南农村的哈佛生物系博士毕业生何江。 何江在毕业典礼上是作为研究生优秀毕业生的代表发表演讲，哈佛校方确认他是第一位享此殊荣的中国大陆学生。当天，与他同台演讲的特邀嘉宾是著名导演史蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格。 何江1988年出生于湖南省长沙市宁乡县南田坪乡停钟村的一户农民家中。这位在中国湖南农村长大、上大学才第一次进城的中国学生，家里经济条件一般，母亲甚至不识字。 但凭借自己的努力，何江本科在中国科技大学获得了最高荣誉奖——郭沫若奖学金，随后他进入哈佛大学硕博连读，毕业后将赴麻省理工学院进行博士后研究。我们现在就来看看何江在哈佛毕业典礼上的演讲↓↓ 双语对照文本： The Spider’s Bite蜘蛛的叮咬 When I was in middle school, a poisonous spider bit my right hand. I ran to my mom for help—but instead of taking me to a doctor, my mom set my hand on fire.我在读初中的时候，曾被一只毒蜘蛛咬伤了右手。我跑去求助母亲。她没带我去看医生，却在我的手上放了一把火。After wrapping my hand with several layers of cotton, then soaking it in wine, she put a chopstick into my mouth, and ignited the cotton. Heat quickly penetrated the cotton and began to roast my hand. The searing pain made me want to scream, but the chopstick prevented it. All I could do was watch my hand burn - one minute, then two minutes –until mom put out the fire.在我的手上包了几层棉纱，用白酒浸湿后，她往我嘴里放了一根筷子，然后点燃了棉纱。高温迅速穿透棉纱，开始炙烤着我的手。灼热的痛苦让我忍不住想尖叫，但是嘴里卡着的筷子却让我叫不出来。我能做的就是看着我的手在火里烧着，一分钟，两分钟……直到母亲熄灭火。You see, the part of China I grew up in was a rural village, and at that time pre-industrial. When I was born, my village had no cars, no telephones, no electricity, not even running water. And we certainly didn’t have access to modern medical resources. There was no doctor my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite.你看，我长大的地方在中国农村，那时，我的家乡还是一个落后的小村庄。我出生时，村子里还没有汽车、电话、电，甚至连自来水都没有。我们显然也接触不到现代医疗资源。我妈根本找不到医生来给我处理蜘蛛咬伤。 For those who study biology, you may have grasped the science behind my mom’s cure: heat deactivates proteins, and a spider’s venom is simply a form of protein. It’s cool how that folk remedy actually incorporates basic biochemistry, isn’t it?在座学生物的人，或许已了然我母亲的治疗手段的科学原理：高热让蛋白质灭活，而蜘蛛的毒液也是一种蛋白质。传统土方竟然结合了生物化学的基本原理，这真的很牛，是不是？ But I am a PhD student in biochemistry at Harvard, I now know that better, less painful and less risky treatments existed. So I can’t help but ask myself, why I didn’t receive one at the time
