——2010年6月美国前最高法院大法官戴维.苏特尔在哈佛大学毕业典礼上的演讲(节选)
When I was younger,I used to hear Harvard stories from a member of the class of 1885.Back then,old graduates of the College who could get to Cambridge on commencement Day didn't wait for reunions years to come back.They'd just turn up ,see their old friends,look at the new crop,and drink some commencement punch under the elms.The old man remembered one of those summer days when he was heading for the Square after lunch and crossed paths with one of the newly graduated seniors,who had had quite a few cups of commencement punch after lunch.And as the two men approached each other,the younger one thrust out his new diplomas and he said,"Educated,by god."
当我年轻时,我经常听1885班的一位校友讲述哈佛的往事。那时,那些可以来剑桥参加毕业典礼的老毕业生们不会等到重聚年才回到学院。他们只是回来,会会老友,看看新朋友,并在榆树下喝点毕业典礼潘趣酒。这位老人回想起某个夏日,当他吃完午饭走向广场,路遇一名新毕业的师弟,此人在午饭后已经开怀畅饮了不少杯毕业典礼潘趣酒。当两人渐渐走近时,年轻的那位亮出刚拿到的文凭看看,说道:"受过上帝的教育."听说,学英语时,原声演讲和反复练习更配哦
