记者:五月二十六日上午,底特律市气温接近30摄氏度,烈日下的韦恩州立大学体育场聚集了一万多名学生和家长参加美国第一夫人米歇尔.奥巴马发起的“白宫对青年的领导和指导”的巡回活动。美国第一夫人米歇尔.奥巴马充满激情的讲话引起在场观众的强烈共鸣。奥巴马夫人告诉大家,她的丈夫不是一个天生的总统,小时候家里没有什么钱,甚至没有父亲。成功的秘诀是教育,是掌握科学知识、学会写作、学会独立思考、有独特的见解并且学会表达自己的观点。
奥巴马夫人:“你们大家都必须努力学习。你们能够做到吗?你们怀有大的抱负吗?(鼓掌。)你们怀有深切的希望吗?永远不要放弃,因为我们不会放弃你们。我们做你们的后盾。我们支持你们,有时你们需要听到这话。有时你们需要知道大人物、重要人物在那支持你们。我们相信你们大家。我们会不停地为你们而努力,只要你们也不停地为我们努力。所以非常感谢你们。望大家保重。(You all have to study hard. Can you do that? Can you dream big? (Applause.) Can you hope deeply? Never give up, because we will never give up on you. We have got your backs. We’re rooting for you, and sometimes you need to hear that. Sometimes you just need to know that big, important people out there are rooting for you. We believe in you all, and we will keep working for you as long as you keep working for us. So thank you so much. You all take care. )
演讲 结束后,奥巴马夫人走下台了,与热情的观众握手、交谈、拥抱。
韦恩县社区大学学生莎达拉.奥登(Shadara Oden)兴奋地打电话告诉母亲,奥巴马夫人与她握手拥抱了。她告诉记者,她从奥巴马夫人演讲中学到的是:“永不放弃,总是尽最大的努力。(Never give up, always do your best.)”
韦恩州立大学医学预科生丝木丽姬特.曼恩小姐同意奥巴马夫人所讲的:“她说得对。每个人都必须不断进步,不断学习,学好数学和科学。这很要紧!(her words are right that everybody needs to keep going ,keep studying, getting better at your math and science-it matters!)”
莱丝丽.格瑞女士向记者讲述奥巴马夫人拥抱并亲自与她女儿讲话时的情景。她说:“奥巴马夫人真的关心孩子们、关心底特律市。太令我激动了。我很兴奋也很高兴我来了。(She really cares about the children and the city of Detroit –it’s overwhelming – it really is overwhelming for me I am so just excited and glad that I came.)”
七岁的嘉布丽埃尔.格瑞(Gabrielle Gray)清楚地记得奥巴马夫人与她谈话的内容:“她(奥巴马夫人)说:‘相信自己,坚持上学,向我保证你要努力学习。(She said: Believe in yourself, stay in school, and promise me to work hard。)’我说:‘我会的。(I said: I will)’”
拉凯西.鲍尔斯女士(La Keish M. Bowers)是嘉布丽埃尔的教母。她向记者表示很喜欢听米歇尔的讲话:“她真地督促我坚持下去。尽管要全职工作,还要为家庭和朋友尽责任,还是要不停地努力去拿第二学位,为了下一个工作,下一个事业。所以说,她的讲话对我确实重要(She really gave me that push to keep pressing forward even though you have a full time job with other commitments with family and friends to keep pressing forward and get that second degree and do that next job-that next career-so that was really important to me.)”
牙医助理米歇尔.华盛顿女士认为第一夫人米歇尔.奥巴马讲的话不仅是针对孩子们的:“我是一名具有执照的牙医助理。她的话鼓励我继续努力直到有一天当上矫形科的牙科医生。她所说的努力学习、不屈不饶、永不放弃你的目标和梦想同样对我自己和我的钱途有帮助。( I am a certified dental assistant and it presses me to go forward to become a dentist one day in orthodontist. She says study hard, perseverance and never give up on your goals and dreams I too received that for myself and my future as well.)”。@
