what’s the role of humanism today? at the first sight of this topic, i felt that i had a vision of walking along a dark passage to our destination, an ideal harmonious society. humanism, is a lighthouse on this way to guide us in case we are getting lost, together with modern technology, we are well on our way toward our destination.
like other young men, i love the internet. to be honest, i could not imagine a life without internet, which is a blessing taken by high technology. to some extent, it represents the whole world to me. i have registered some accounts on myspace, facebook, twitter, renren, weibo and so forth. it’s really amazing because these network technologies make it possible for people all over the world to communicate with each other freely and conveniently.
however, there are two sides to the argument, so what of the internet. while it could lighten our life, it could also turn into evil. it started with some of these arguments—well, it is argument at first—then the situation seems out of control: people start to curse and scold each other just because they have different opinions. people became more and more aggressive, seditious, and insulting, and later on, with the “human-flesh searching” involved, the situation gets even worse. those are what we called “network of violence”, they are still happening, and still going on.
it seems like that the internet frees us from the burden of our public identities so we should be our true, authentic selves online, except it turns out—who wouldn’t see that coming—that our true, authentic selves aren’t that fantastic.
the reason we define ourselves as human is because we have some natural instincts to care for and respect other people. in other words, we are pursuing the universal brotherhood, a peaceful world of free minds. it is humanism that keeps our society moving on and on.
as one of the most important inventions in our time, internet has changed the way of our life tremendously. it has changed the way we express and communicate with each other. it has made it possible for us to meet each other without distance; it has made it easier for us to know and to comprehend each other.
however not only some changes has it brought, but also brought on some challenges. net has anarchy in its dna, it’s always been about anonymity, playing with your own identity and messing with other people’s heads. it is a challenge, it challenges our self-discipline that we are proud of, it challenges our humanity that we are proud of. sure technology promises us more freedom but it doesn’t mean that we should leave our civilization behind.
that’s why we need a guideline to light up our path, to lead us. in this technologically advanced world, what we need to do is to avoid the misuse of technology, but to take it as an accelerator, a lube or a navigator on our high way to create a better world, a harmonious society.
so don’t ever forget our aspiration, and always have faith in humanism, and we are going to make it happen, in this technologically advanced world! yes! we can!
thank you, ladies and gentlemen.

good morning/afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
consider the lowly toilet. many of you may not think of the toilet as a form of technology if you think of toilets at all. but, it is and has contributed greatly to the improved health and overall quality of life for mankind.
on a recent trip to japan, i was impressed by, among other things, a gadget in most public women's restrooms, called otohime or sound princess. this device produces the sound of flushing water without the need for actual flushing. the technology saves the user both the embarrassment of being heard during urination and some 20 liters of water per use in cases where a woman might flush the toilet continuously while using it.
every time i used otohime, i felt like a princess, an environmentalist princess on the toilet.
it was a longed for feeling. over the past decade, i shuffled in and out of many kinds of public restrooms in china--filthy smelly water closets in outlying areas, spacious luxurious lavatories in five-star hotels, forever-occupied girls' stalls on campus during school, and smart modern mobile toilets in international fairs. but not one single "room" evoked my pride of being a princess.
and i knew why the sound princess had. it was not because of the high technology the small bathroom boasted which is becoming ubiquitous worldwide. it was the idealism embodied in the technology that keeps reminding me that in this ever-changing world, i am a responsible and dignified human being even when sitting on a toilet.
humanism, no matter how it is defined, aims to strike a balance between us being at the mercy of nature and being too human-centered. in my case, i haven't relieved myself under a tree for a while. i am a proud, dutiful chinese citizen. gone are the days when people just found a corner to do their business resulting in poor sanitation and threats to public health. the otohimetechnology renders me two warnings: first, i am a humble human being with an obligation to save not only my face but also natural resources. second, there is still a long way to go in my own country not just in developing technology and the economy, but also in upholding human dignity and promoting human welfare. take the toilet: dirty, crowdedtoilets shall, at least, give way to clean, human-friendly ones.
fortunately, i have seen improvements. at shanghai world expo 20--, 8,000 toilets, all modern and technologically sophisticated, were installed across the site. what really delighted the visitors, however, was the user-friendly design and services. toilets were situated every 100 meters. several hundred volunteers served as toilet guides and sanitation workers. the ratio of female to male toilet space was set at 2.5 to 1. soft music was played in the toilets. all this seems to celebrate the glory of comprehensive humanism.
ladies and gentlemen, science and technology are here to improve earthly life and maximize human happiness. when our world benefits from technology, coupled with human considerations, we are bound to enjoy our life. conversely, we suffer.
the toilet is a piece of sanitaryware and the quintessence of humanism that underlies technological innovation. like gnp, employment rates, and space exploration efforts, the lowly equipment is an equally important measure of a progressive society. when on a toilet if we feel like a princess, we shall be proud of living in a society that values humanity. if not, we must stand up and make some changes.
and if you are still baffled with what i have said, i suggest you take off right now and go experience the bathrooms in this auditorium, because they are what makes our life beautiful or ugly, humanism considered or ignored.

good morning/evening/afternoon, ladies and gentlemen :
today, my speech is about talents,in my opionion, talents are indispensable in nowadays society. as is known to all that the fight among countries is actually the fight among talents.
first, i'd like to define the word"talent" in my idea, a talent is one person who is good at or expertised in some or multiple areas. nowadays, as the world developing goes on , if one country want to rank top or do a good job in the world, the country must have many example, china, the biggest developing country in the world, in the past 100 years, is always invaded by other countries, why ,the reason is that china at that time had not so many talents.
if they had anti-intrusion leader talents in the war, needless to say,they would have beat those big they had talents in weapons manufacturing, nodody dares to provoke r, nowadays, it's a totally different situation, china has become powerfulin all over the world, why ?
because there are many talents serving the country, the civilians become more and more and more people go to university,more and more people come to receive further education.
so what is that in return,talents in army protect our country from invasion, talents in commerce help make our economy keep in improving, talents in aerospace make the world see chinese manned spacecraft flying. talents in sports make china rank the first in the olympic sum up, talents will play a more and more impoetant role in the world, if one country intends to flourish, he must foster talents as many as they can ,that's all,thank you.

president clinton:
thank you. thank you, president chen, chairmen ren, vice president chi, vice minister wei. we are delighted to be here today with a very large american delegation, including the first lady and our daughter, who is a student at stanford, one of the schools with which beijing university has a relationship. we have six members of the united states congress; the secretary of state; secretary of commerce; the secretary of agriculture; the chairman of our council of economic advisors; senator sasser, our ambassador; the national security advisor and my chief of staff, among others. i say that to illustrate the importance that the united states places on our relationship with china.
i would like to begin by congratulating all of you, the students, the faculty, the administrators, on celebrating the centennial year of your university. gongxi, beida. (applause.)
as i'm sure all of you know, this campus was once home to yenching university which was founded by american missionaries. many of its wonderful buildings were designed by an american architect. thousands of americans students and professors have come here to study and teach. we feel a special kinship with you.
i am, however, grateful that this day is different in one important respect from another important occasion 79 years ago. in june of 1919, the first president of yenching university, john leighton stuart, was set to deliver the very first commencement address on these very grounds. at the appointed hour, he appeared, but no students appeared. they were all out leading the may 4th movement for china's political and cultural renewal. when i read this, i hoped that when i walked into the auditorium today, someone would be sitting here. and i thank you for being here, very much. (applause.)
over the last 100 years, this university has grown to more than 20,000 students. your graduates are spread throughout china and around the world. you have built the largest university library in all of asia. last year, 20 percent of your graduates went abroad to study, including half of your math and science majors. and in this anniversary year, more than a million people in china, asia, and beyond have logged on to your web site. at the dawn of a new century, this university is leading china into the future.
i come here today to talk to you, the next generation of china's leaders, about the critical importance to your future of building a strong partnership between china and the united states.
the american people deeply admire china for its thousands of years of contributions to culture and religion, to philosophy and the arts, to science and technology. we remember well our strong partnership in world war ii. now we see china at a moment in history when your glorious past is matched by your present sweeping transformation and the even greater promise of your future.
just three decades ago, china was virtually shut off from the world. now, china is a member of more than 1,000 international organizations -- enterprises that affect everything from air travel to agricultural development. you have opened your nation to trade and investment on a large scale. today, 40,000 young chinese study in the united states, with hundreds of thousands more learning in asia, africa, europe, and latin america.
