Passage 1
I have wracked my mind and heart for what I ought to say to you today. I have asked myself what important lessons I have learned in the 21 years since I graduated. I have come up with two answers. On this wonderful day when we are gathered together to celebrate your academic success, I have decided to talk to you about the benefits of failure. And as you stand on the threshold of what is sometimes called "real life", I want to stress the crucial importance of imagination.
So why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won. Philosopher Seneca said: As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.
选项
答案
我为今天的演讲内容绞尽了脑汁。我问自己,从毕业那天起到现在的21年间,我收获了哪些重要的教益。我想到了两个话题。在今天这个美好的日子,我们聚集在一起共同庆祝你们在学业上所取得的成就,我想跟你们谈一下失败的益处;而在你们即将迈人所谓的“现实生活”大门之际,我还想强调想象力的重要性。 那么为什么我还要谈论失败的好处呢?因为失败意味着要抛弃那些不必要的东西。只有失败才能让我学会自省。只有经历逆境,你才会真正认识自己,真正了解身边的人。这种认识是真正的财富,虽然是用痛苦换来的。哲学家塞内加说:生活就像故事,不在于长短,而在于质量,这才是最重要的。

冷战以后世界上仅有一个超级大国,势力均衡因此也就不存在了。这种状况是否会持续很久呢?答案取决于你是乐观主义者,还是悲观主义者。还取决于强权政治是否会被纳入受全球单一文化观念影响的某种立宪制世界秩序中。不过,在可预见的未来,第三次世界大战似乎不太可
