Ladies and gentlemen,

女士们，先生们，

Thank you for coming today to attend the graduation ceremony at No.3 Junior High School.

First of all, I'd like to congratulate all the students who are here today.

I remember meeting all of you when you were just starting Grade 7 at this school.

You were all so full of energy and thirsty for knowledge. And yes, some of you were a little difficult to deal with!

But today I see a room full of talented young adults who are full of hope for the future. You've all grown up so much and I'm so proud of you.

在第三初级中学的毕业典礼上，看到你们亲切的面孔，我满怀感激之情。首先，向在坐的全体同学，送上我热烈的祝贺。你们刚刚升入七年级的情景，至今历历在目。朝气蓬勃的你们读书如同蝶恋花，求知好像渴思饮。噢，对了，初中三年，一些同学少不更事，让老师头疼。年年岁岁花相似，岁岁年年人不同。如今，偌大的会场座无虚席，你们风华正茂，才华横溢，憧憬着美好的未来。你们是我的自豪，我的荣耀。

Although you've all worked very hard over the last three years, none of you did it alone.I hope you'll remember the important people in your lives who helped and supported you, your parents, your teachers and your friends.

Please consider what they've done for you and what they mean to you. Never fail to be thankful to the people around you.

在过去的三个春秋里，你们披星戴月，寒窗苦读，但是，你们谁也不是孤军奋战。父母在陪伴着你，老师在指导着，朋友在鼓励着你。生活中，这些曾经帮助你、扶持你的重要人物，希望大家不要忘记。请各位细细地想一想，寒来暑往，他们为你们付出几何，牺牲多少，细细地想一想，对你们而言，他们价值的高低，意义的大小。一定要感恩身边的人。成功的光环上，有你们的汗水，也有他们的眼泪。

Lastly, the end of junior high school is the beginning of a new life.

I don't need to tell you that life in senior high school will be harder and that you have many difficult tasks ahead of you. You'll make mistakes along the way, but the key is to learn from your mistakes and never give up.But along with difficulties, there will also be many exciting things waiting for you.Behind each door you open are chances to learn new things, and you have the ability to make your own choices.

Choose wisely and be responsible for your decisions and actions.

Although you have to go your separate ways now, I hope that in a few years' time, you'll come back to visit our school. As you set out on your new journey, you shouldn't forget where you came from. The future is yours.

最后，告别初中校园，开启新的征程。我不必告诉你，高中的生活更紧张，日子更难熬。不必要告诉你们，前方的道路上，许多艰巨的任务等着你们去完成。漫漫长途，你们会走弯路，选错路。然而，人非圣贤，孰能无过。关键在于吃一堑，长一智。愈挫愈勇，绝不放弃。因为困难和机会同在，风险与希望共存。福兮，祸所伏。祸兮，福所依。在你打开的每一扇门的后面，都是学习新东西的平台。你们有能力自己的事情自己做主。选择要冷静，不要冲动。一旦做出选择，就要承担后果。一旦采取行动，就要敢于负责。现在，虽然你们必须在不同的道路上拼搏厮杀，可是，我还是期待，过上三年五载，你们回归母校，抚今追昔。当你们踏上新的旅途之际，应该懂得树高千丈，根不能忘。未来属于你们。

Good luck and hope to see you again sometime soon!

祝你们好运连连，同时希望，后会有期。
