篇章1:毕业典礼英文致词文档
i am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. i never graduated from college. truth be
told, this is the closest i've ever gotten to a college graduation.
today i want to tell you three stories from my life. that's it. no big deal. just three stories.
the first story is about connecting the dots.
i dropped out of reed college after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before i really quit. so why did i drop out?
it started before i was born. my biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. she felt very strongly that i should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. except that when i popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. so my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "we have an unexpected baby boy; do you want
him?" they said: "of course." my biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. she refused to sign the final adoption papers. she only relented a few months later when my parents promised that i would someday go to college.
and 17 years later i did go to college. but i naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. after six months, i couldn't see the value in it. i had no idea what i wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. and here i was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. so i decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out ok. it was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions i ever made. the minute i dropped out i could stop taking the required classes that didn't
interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
it wasn't all romantic. i didn't have a dorm room, so i slept on the floor in friends' rooms, i returned coke bottles for the 5 deposits to buy food with, and i would walk the 7 miles across town every sunday
night to get one good meal a week at the hare krishna temple. i loved it. and much of what i stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. let me give you one example: reed college at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. because i had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, i decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. i learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. it was beautiful, historical, artistically
subtle in a way that science can't capture, and i found it fascinating.
none of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. but ten years later, when we were designing the first macintosh computer, it all came back to me. and we designed it all into the mac. it was the first computer with beautiful typography. if i had never dropped in on that single course in college, the mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. and since windows just copied the mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. if i had never dropped out, i would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when i was in college. but it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. so you
have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. you have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. this approach has
never let me down, and it has made all the difference
in my life.
my second story is about love and loss.
i was lucky – i found what i loved to do early
in life. woz and i started apple in my parents garage when i was
20.we worked hard, and in 10 years apple had
grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. we had just released our finest creation - the macintosh - a year earlier, and i had just turned
30.and then i got fired. how can you get fired from a company you started?
well, as apple grew we hired someone who i
thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. but
then our visions of the future began to diverge and
eventually we had a falling out. when we did, our board of directors sided with him. so at 30 i was out. and very publicly out. what had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
i really didn't know what to do for a few months.
i felt that i had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that i had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. i met with david packard and bob noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. i was a very public failure, and i even thought about running away from the valley. but something slowly began to dawn on me – i still loved what i did. the turn of events at apple had not changed that one bit. i had been rejected, but i was still in love. and so i decided to start over.
i didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. the heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. it freed
me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
during the next five years, i started a company named next, another company named pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, toy story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. in a remarkable turn of events, apple bought next, i retuned to apple, and the technology we developed at next is at the heart of apple's current renaissance. and laurene and i have a wonderful family together.
i'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if i hadn't been fired from apple. it was awful tasting medicine, but i guess the patient needed it.
sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. don't lose faith. i'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that i loved what i did.
you've got to find what you love. and that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you haven't found it yet, keep looking. don't settle. as with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. and, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. so keep looking until you find it. don't settle.
my third story is about death.
when i was 17, i read a quote that went something like: "if you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." it made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, i have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "if today were the last day of

关于汉服毕业典礼的争议，欢迎大家了来品读，希望大家会喜欢。
1国学六期毕业典礼致词
尊敬的各位老师、亲爱的同学们：
大家好! 时光荏苒，白驹过隙。在这瓜果成熟，桂花飘
香的季节，我们国学六期全体同学齐聚于此，迎接属于我们的累累硕果。
感受现场快乐、融洽的气氛，让我体悟到同学之情的那
份单纯、温馨和感动。回想起我参加国学班学习的日子，当
我怀着一颗虔诚敬畏之心走进北大国学班的课堂，就深深地被这历史传承下的中华文化所吸引。
在北大国学班里，在导师们精准通俗的授课下，我们一
起学习中国商业历史智慧精华，学习得古人之慧谋当今之事，从众多的文化瑰宝中吸收了古人的独特见解和谆谆教诲，不仅提高了我们的文化底蕴，拓展了我们的事业空间，也增强了我们的民族自豪感。在同学之间，我们打破了年龄层次和行业边界，学习交流，探讨做人、做事、修身的学问，广结善缘，修己达人。经过相互间的切磋交流，更是收获了一份可贵的友谊。
“相送当门有修竹，为君叶叶起清风”，转眼就到了说再见的时候。其实国学班的学习仅仅是为我们开启了通向智慧宝藏的一扇大门，门内的种种瑰宝需要我们穷尽一生的精力去探寻。人生就是一个修行的过程，修行的人也有欢乐，也有痛苦，但是修行的人不迷惑于欢乐，也不沉迷于痛苦。我衷心地期望各位同学不以国学课程的结束而停止对国学的探究，祝愿我们在座的每一位能够在探索的过程中获得痛快淋漓，福慧双修的人生。
2“汉服毕业典礼”是场秀?
争鸣
近些年，很多高校探索具有中国传统特色的学位服，不断引发社会关注。今年，xxx大学连续第三年举行研究生汉服毕业典礼，因有教育部的官员应邀出席，所以格外引人注意，也激起了热议。
正方
传统中式学位服合情合理
当下社会广为熟悉的学位服包括学位帽、流苏、学位袍和垂布四部分组成，1994年由国务院学位委员会审定通过，并下发《关于推荐使用学位服的通知》，称这种学位服“既有
中国特色又符合世界惯例”，将之作为统一规范的学位服，向全国学位授予单位推荐使用，同时要求其他样式的学位服一律废止。
可是，引发质疑和诟病的是，这种学位服中国元素很少，西方特色突出，基本上照抄自欧美学位服。
我们在经历了全民绿军装、“灰蚂蚁”的时代后，随着国力恢复，中华文化终于渐进复归，这同时催生了国服复兴，其中，“汉服运动”最为引人注目，传统中式学位服则是其中一项重要内容。
按理说，我们面对中国高校探索具有中国文化特色的学位服时，不再将其当成一个问题。遗憾的是，在今天的中国，这仍然是一个引发巨大争议的文化问题。
文化是国家精神的一个体现，衣冠具有最鲜明的文化象征意义。《国语》云：“服者，心之文也。”穿着何种服装，就体现何种心境。因衣冠具有民族文化身份识别功能，可促进文化认同，所以唐代孔颖达有“中国有礼仪之大，故称夏;有服章之美，谓之华”的说法。兹事体大，故而，古今中外的重大国际外交场合，各国俱高度重视如何着装。
探索中国传统特色学位服和毕业典礼，江苏师大等高校的做法值得肯定和称赞。在穿越了百年历史文化迷雾之后，我们应该认识到，斩断本国传统，于理不通，于情不合，于国不利，亟需彻底反省、拨乱反正。
反方
汉服“演出”是一种跟风
笔者无缘躬逢其盛，相信参加仪式者，一时间恐怕会惶然不知今夕何夕，到底是置身于“大汉王朝”，还是处在现代大学校园。于是，一场原本普普通通的毕业典礼，竟然成了新闻事件。而且，据说xxx大学这种着汉服的毕业典礼已经连续举行三年了。
这其中，被符号化的“汉服”，就使得大家自然地联想到了中国文化、传统文化、国学等内涵。
但，不要以为有了所谓的元素、符号，就必然有文化。还说xxx大学的汉服毕业典礼吧，服饰在这个新闻中成了唯一的看点，也只能成为一个唯一的看点。因为汉服的服饰，并不意味着就承载了中国文化、传统文化。汉服，只是一种服饰，一种器物，一种工具，当传统那氤氲于身心的温柔敦厚、郁郁乎文的气象、修养，早已在泛滥的物欲中丧失殆尽的时候，仅
靠所谓的汉服“出演”，是否就能唤醒久违的传统之魂?笔者
并不乐观。
稍微了解一点现代大学历史的人都会知道，现代大学的
根基在哪里?陈寅恪在借为王国维撰写碑文之际，提出的“独
立之精神，自由之思想”才是一个现代大学得以自立繁荣，学术得以创新，文化得以传承，人性得以涵养的根本。大学的精神还未树立，就匆匆忙忙又搞起了花样，这其实也是一种跟风，而这种跟风，其实在一定程度上源于所谓创新的焦虑。一所大学，尤其是一所大学的主导者不去思考这些根本性的问题，只知去跟风，只知去考虑在技巧层面去吸引媒体的聚焦，恐怕不是学校之福，更非教育之本分。
所以，从教育部门官员到大学的领导教授，别把精力花
在如何经营汉服“演出”和仪式的恢弘精美上，而应该多踏踏实实地考虑如何在日常教学、科研中将传统文化的精髓、中国文化的义理深深植入这所学校的魂魄。我们不能不说，目前的大学问题多多，弊病丛生。钱学森之问，其实是每个大学都要应对和解决的，而不是靠几次古装的“演出”就回应的。
中立
穿不穿汉服，也应有边界
