good morning ladies and gentlemen:
the title of my speech today is "the doors that are open to us ".
the other day my aunt paid me a visit. she was overjoyed. "i got the highest mark in the mid-term examination!" she said. don’t be surprised! my aunt is indeed a student; to be exact, a college student at the age of 45.
last year, she put aside her private business and signed up for a one-year, full-time management course in a college. "this was the wisest decision i have ever made," she said proudly like a teenage girl. to her, college is always a right place to pick up new ideas, and new ideas always make her feel young.
"compared with the late 70s," she says, "now college students have many doors." my aunt cannot help but recall her first college experience in 1978 when college doors began to be re-opened after the cultural revolution. she was assigned to study engineering despite her desire to study chinese literature, and a few years later, the government sent her to work in a tv factory.
i was shocked when she first told me how she (had) had no choice in her major and job. look at us today! so many doors are open to us! i believe there have never been such abundant opportunities for self-development as we have today. and my aunt told me that we should reach our goals by grasping all these opportunities.
the first door i see is the opportunity to study different kinds of subjects that interest us. my aunt said she was happy to study management, but she was also happy that she could attend lectures on ancient chinese poetry and on shakespearean drama. as for myself, i am english major, but i may also go to lectures on history. to me, if college education in the past emphasized specialization, now, it emphasizes free and well-round

ed development of each individual. so all the fine achievements of human civilization are open to us.
the second door is the door to the outside world. learning goes beyond classrooms and national boundaries. my aunt remembers her previous college days as monotonous and even calls her generation "frogs in a well." but today, as the world becomes a global village, it is important that our neighbors and we be open-minded to learn with and from each other. i have many fellow international classmates, and i am applying to an exchange program with a university abroad. as for my aunt, she is planning to get an mba degree in the united kingdom where her daughter, my cousin, is now doing her master’s degree in biochemistry. we are now taking the opportunity to study overseas, and when we come back, we’ll put to use what we have learnt abroad.
the third door is the door to lifelong learning. as new ideas appear all the time, we always need to acquire new knowledge, regardless of our age. naturally, my aunt herself is the best example. many of my aunt’s contemporaries say that she is amazingly up-to-date for a middle-aged woman. she simply responds, "age doesn’t matter. what matters is your attitude. you may think it’s strange that i am still going to college, but i don’t think i’m too old to learn." yes, she is right. since the government removed the age limit for college admissions in XX, there are already some untraditional students, sitting with us in the same classrooms. like these people, my aunt is old but she is very young in spirit. with her incredible energy and determination, she embodies both tradition and modernity.
the doors open to us also pose challenges. for instance, we are faced with the challenge of a balanced learning, the challenge of pre

serving our fine tradition while learning from the west, and the challenge of learning continuously while carrying heavy responsibilities to our work and family. so, each door is a test of our courage, ability and judgment, but with the support of my teachers, parents, friends and my aunt, i believe i can meet the challenge head on. when i reach my aunt’s age, i can be proud to say that i have walked through dozens of doors and will, in the remainder of my life, walk through many more. possibly i will go back to college, too.
thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.

早上好，女士們，先生們：
我今天演講的題目是“向我們開放的門”。
有一天，我的姑姑來看望我。她高興得不得了。 “我所取得的中期檢查的最高分！”她說。唐，氣溶膠感到驚訝！我的姑姑是一個學生，確切地說，在45歲的大學生。
去年，她拋開自己的業務，並簽訂了為期一年的行動，全日制大專以上管理課程。 “這是最明智的決定，我曾經提出，”她自豪地說就像一個十幾歲的女孩。對她來說，大學始終是一個正確的地方，以學習新觀念，新的觀念總是讓她感覺自己很年輕。
“比起70年代末，”她說，“現在的大學生有許多大門。”我的阿姨不禁讓人想起1978年她第一次上大學的經驗時，學院大門開始被重新文革後開放。她被分配到研究學習的願望，儘管她的文學工程，數年後，政府把她送到一家電視機廠工作。
我感到很震驚，她首先告訴我她是如何（有）沒有選擇自己的專業和工作。看看今天的我們！因此，許多大門是開放的我們！我相信有從未自我發展等豐富的機會，我們有今天。和我的姑姑告訴我，我們應該把握住這些機會的目標。
第一個門，我看到的是機會，研究的課題，我們的利益不同。我姑姑說她很高興能學習管理學，但她也很高興，她可以參加中國古代詩歌和莎士比亞戲劇講座。至於我自己，我是英語專業，但我也可以到歷史的講座。對我來說，如果大學教育在過去強調專業化，現在，它強調的自由和幸福圓每個人的發展。因此，所有的人類文明優秀成果開放給我們。
第二個門是通往外面世界的大門。教室和學習超越國界。舅媽仍記得她以前的大學生活單調乏味，甚至將她的一代“井底之蛙。”但是今天，當世界成為一個地球村，但重要的是我們的鄰國，我們將虛心學習和相互的。我有很多來自不同國家的同學，我正在申請國外大學的交流計劃。至於我的姑姑，她正計劃在獲得英國工商管理碩士學位，她的女兒，我的表哥，現在做她的主人，星光大道在生物化學學士學位。我們現在正在海外學習的機會，當我們回來，我們äôll投入使用我們學到國外。
第三個門是終身學習的大門。隨著新的想法出現的時候，我們總是需要掌握新的知識，無論我們的年齡。當然，我的姑姑自己就是最好的例子。

我的姑姑很多，星光大道的同時代人說，她是令人驚訝了，到了中年女子的日期。她簡單地回答：“沒有按年齡，氣溶膠的問題。最要緊的是你的態度。你也許會認為，星光大道奇怪的是，我還在上大學，但我不，我氣溶膠認為，急性中耳炎到老學到老。”是的，她是正確的。由於政府取消了XX年高校招生年齡限制，已經有一些非傳統的學生，我們坐在同一教室。這些人一樣，我的姑姑是歲，但她的心卻非常年輕。以她驚人的精力和決心，她既體現傳統與現代。
開放的大門也向我們提出挑戰。舉例來說，我們面臨著一個均衡的學習挑戰，維護我們的優良傳統的挑戰，同時學習西方，學習的重任時，堅持不斷為我們的工作和家庭的挑戰。因此，每個門是對我們的勇氣，能力和判斷力的考驗，但我的老師，家長，朋友和我舅媽的支援，我相信我能應付挑戰頭部。當我到我的姑姑，星光大道的年齡，我可以自豪地說，我已走過了幾十個門，並且會在我的生命，其餘走過許多。也許我也會去上大學。
非常感謝你，女士們，先生們
