Good afternoon, all the teachers, parents and above all, graduates of 2016!
各位親愛的同學們、老師和家長朋友們大家下午好！
Several days ago, I shared some old photos in our class WeChat group. When I look at those photos, old memories keep flashing back. Military training, sports meeting, drama festival, chorus competition, MUN, Harvard Debate, birthday celebration… I still remember you skipped the lunch for the rehearsal of drama, and some of you stayed up the whole night to prepare the MUN. I believe these scenes will linger in your memories.
幾天前，我在我們班級的微信群里分享了幾張老照片。當我看着這些老照片的時候，舊時的記憶不斷湧現：軍訓、運動會、戲劇節、合唱比賽、模擬聯合國、哈佛辯論賽、班級生日會……我依然記得你們廢寢忘食地排練話劇；你們有人為了準備模聯通宵達旦。我相信這些場景將在你們的記憶中長久地駐留。
The past three years have also witnessed your growth. Our girls who used to have baby-fat have grown into graceful ladies. Our boys have now grown into gentle but strong men. For the first time you planned and prepared the whole graduation trip on your own; you held solo concerts; you successfully ran the Ning Café。 You did so many amazing things which my generation can never have imagined.
過去的三年見證了你們的成長和變化。如今，我們的女孩亭亭玉立，我們的男生意氣昂揚。你們獨立完成畢業旅行的計劃和準備工作，你們中有人開辦個人演唱會，有人成功地經營了我們的寧咖啡（國際部咖啡館）。凡此種種，令人驚嘆，這些都是像我這代人都不曾敢去想的事。
Life is like an ongoing train that will not return. This train has passed Ningwai. Though you cannot stay in the beautiful past, you can decide where to sit, how you sit and the way you view the scenery. Some people get used to sitting in the same place, looking at the same scenery, as it’s safe and easy to stay within one’s comfort zone. Studying abroad is challenging but it also offers you an opportunity to explore and experience something different.
人生宛如一趟沒有歸途的列車，只能向前。車子已經開過寧外，你不能選擇留在美麗的過去或是現在，但你可以選擇車上的位置，姿勢和心態。有的人習慣坐在一個固定的位置上，看着差不多的風景，如同每個人都有一個習慣了的"舒適區".留學帶給同學們人生最大的價值或許就是一個走出"舒適區"的機會！去探索和經歷不一樣的東西！
Staying in the comfort zone certainly is a much easier way to follow. You can choose to spend time staying at your dormitory, playing computer games or idling in the virtual world, chatting with your friends, browsing WeChat or Facebook as nobody will monitor you anymore. But you can also choose to push yourself much harder and to lead a more active way of life. Spend time exploring different fields you are interested, meeting different people, doing voluntary jobs. Only through practice, may you find what you love and what kind of person you would like to be.
誠然，待在舒適區會比較輕鬆容易。你可以選擇整天待在宿舍玩遊戲或者上網，與朋友聊天或是不停地刷微信、微博或者臉書（一種社交媒體），因為再也沒人會來監督你。但是你也可以選擇逼自己一把去過一種更加積極的生活：花時間去探索你感興趣的事情，去遇見不同的人，去參加一些志願者活動。只有在實踐中，你才有可能發現你真正感興趣的事以及你想成為什麼樣的人。
About two weeks ago, a student named He Jiang, who is from a rural village from Hunan Province of China suddenly becomes famous because of his commencement speech at Harvard Graduation ceremony. It is a special honor because it is the first time a student from mainland China has got such an opportunity. When He Jiang reflects on his own experience, he admitted that he used to lack confidence in his first year at Harvard. Because he is from rural area of China, his English is not proficient. In his second year, he decided to make some change. He applied to be a personal tutor for undergraduates at Harvard; although feeling embarrassed, he joined in local students’ talking in school’s café with his not so fluent English and he applied to be a candidate speaker for Harvard Graduation Ceremony.
大約在兩周前，有個來自湖南農村的小夥子（何江）因為在哈佛畢業典禮上的演講而一下子廣受關注。這是一份特殊的榮譽因為何江是第一個登上哈佛畢業典禮演講台的中國大陸學子。當何江回憶他的經歷時，他說在哈佛大學第一年的時候他曾經很不自信。因為他來自於中國農村，所以他的英語並不嫻熟。在第二年的時候他決定做出一些改變。他申請成為哈佛本科生的導師；儘管很尷尬，他會在學校食堂里主動加入本地學生的討論；同時他也鼓起勇氣申請成為哈佛畢業演講的候選人。
His achievements do not come easily. It is a result of constant challenges and endeavors to go beyond his limits. So please welcome changes, step out of your comfort zone and face challenges. This is the first thing I want to share with you.
何江的成就來之不易。這是長期不斷挑戰自我，不斷努力突破自身局限的結果。所以同學們，請擁抱變化，走出你們的舒適區去面對挑戰吧。這是我要跟你們分享的第一點心得。
Life is not always smooth. Instead, it is full of ups and downs. On the way, you will see breathtaking sceneries; you will gain friendship and intimate love; but you may also experience confusion, frustration, loneliness and helplessness. You will taste the sweetness and bitterness of life along the journey. Don’t be afraid to fail. Whether you fear it or not, disappointment will come. The beauty is that through disappointment you can gain clarity, and with clarity comes conviction and true originality.When you meet difficulties, I hope you can make every effort to change what you can change; be grateful to accept what you cannot change; and be able to distinguish the differences between these two. This is the second thing I want you to remember.
生活不會總是一帆風順。相反，它總是充滿了跌宕起伏。在人生的旅途中，你會看到窗外宜人的風景，會收穫友誼和愛情。但同時你也會遭遇迷茫、挫折、孤獨、無助。一路上，你會遍嘗人生的酸甜苦辣。但是請你不要懼怕失敗。無論你懼怕與否，失望在所難免。好在失望能使你思路清晰，這便會有堅定的信念和真正的獨創性。老師希望在你遇到挫折時，能夠有足夠的勇氣改變你能夠改變的事，能夠有足夠的胸懷接受你不能改變的事，並且有足夠的能力分辨這兩者的不同。這是老師送給你們的第二句話。
During the journey of life, people come and go at each stop. We have classmates, friends, teachers and parents. However, each of us can only accompany you temporarily and give you a limited help. You will meet new people there, and I hope you can be generous to help those in need, as what you have received from others. This will empower you and make you feel connected and happy. As Winston Churchill once said, "we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give". This sentence is the third thing I want you to keep in mind.
在人生的旅途中，在每一站都會有人上車有人離開。人生的列車上有同學，有朋友，有老師，有父母。但是我們每個人只能陪伴你走過一段路，給予你有限的幫助。你的列車上還會有新的朋友加入。希望你不吝付出，幫助他人，如同你獲得幫助時候一樣。這會讓你在世界上暢通無阻，成就你人生的高度。正如丘吉爾所說："我們用我們所擁有的來衡量生活，我們用我們付出的來衡量一生。"這句話，是我送給你們的第三句話。
When studying abroad, you will meet people from different cultures and backgrounds. I hope you can be open-minded, to embrace diverse cultures, to think in new ways, and most importantly, to respect and appreciate the diversity. When you go to university, I hope you will spend more time listening and asking questions than judging and comparing.
求學海外，你們將遇見來自不同文化，不同背景的人們。我希望你們擁有開放的心態，擁抱新的文化、擁有你的視野。更重要的是，去尊重和欣賞這個世界的多樣性。當你們進入大學后，我希望你們花更多的時間去傾聽和提問，而不是對別人評頭論足或是和別人比較。
Finally, though I have much more to say to you, life is in your hand and you have to experience it by yourself. You are the author of yourself. Build yourself a great story.
最後，離別之際，老師縱有千言萬語，但人生終須你親自體驗。如果你的人生是一本書，你就是這本書的作者。為你自己書寫一個精彩的人生故事吧！
Thank you and good luck!
謝謝！祝你們好運！
