美国经典英文演讲100篇:The Great Society(1)
It is a great pleasure to be here today. This university has been coeducational since 1870, but I do not believe it was on the basis of your accomplishments that a Detroit high school girl said (and I quote), "In choosing a college, you first have to decide whether you want a coeducational school or an educational school." Well, we can find both here at Michigan, although perhaps at different hours. I came out here today very anxious to meet the Michigan student whose father told a friend of mine that his son's education had been a real value. It stopped his mother from bragging about him.
I have come today from the turmoil of your capital to the tranquility of your campus to speak about the future of your country. The purpose of protecting the life of our Nation and preserving the liberty of our citizens is to pursue the happiness of our people. Our success in that pursuit is the test of our success as a Nation.
今天我能来到这里，感到非常荣幸。这所大学自1870年创建以来，一直是男女同校。底特律的一名高中女生说道（在此我引用为）：“要选择一所大学，你必须首先看它是一个男女同校的学校还是一个男女分校的学校。”我认为，密歇根大学并不是建立在这样的成就基础上的。实际上，这两种类型的学校在密歇根都有，尽管它们可能出现在不同的时期。今天我来到这里就是急于见一名密歇根的学生，他父亲曾告诉我的一个朋友说，他儿子所受的教育是真正有价值的。
我从密歇根州喧闹的首府来到你们幽静的校园，为的是谈论我们国家的未来。保护我们国家的生活，维护公民的自由的目的，就是为了让我们的人民得到幸福，我们的这种追求的成功就是我们整个民族的成功。
