Challenges and Opportunities for StudentsGood morning, ladies and gentlemen. At present, my fellow students and I have before us great personal and educational opportunities. At the same time, we are running into a variety of challenges.Today's college education provides us with opportunities for bringing out the creativity and talent that we have within us. This is nurtured both by our learned professors, and by the growing dimension of knowledge sources, such as the World Wide Web and multimedia sources. Our educational experience is being transformed both within and beyond the traditional classroom. However, challenges still exist.At the end of every semester, students in my university are required to fill out a questionnaire as a review of the previous semester. The questions usually cover a broad range of college life, from curriculum adjustment to canteen service. And almost every time, the questionnaire includes one essential question, that is: As a college student, what are your major challenges? And almost every answer includes two aspects: studying and professional. These two challenges will remain our preoccupations as long as we live in such a competitive world.A series of challenges in our studies start from almost the beginning of our freshman year. We may wonder whether we've chosen the right major. We may wonder if the extracurricular activities add credits to our studies. We may work our heads off to get a glorious A, because B is already mediocre and C is almost unacceptable. Later on we may be competing with our hardworking, intelligent peers, including our best friends to get into an ideal graduate school. All of these sound so familiar and they have somehow made our college education so goal-obsessed that we sometimes fail to fully enjoy our educational experience.Apart from challenges in learning, there are also professional challenges. The competitive world today has also brought about the "Knowledge Economy," which requires the effective use of knowledge for economic and social development, and also requires skilled and multi-oriented students with a marketable vocational sense. Therefore, sophisticated calculations upon the value of a university degree are being made. Graduate employability statistics are being scrutinized. Programs like resume writing and interview skills are seen as a must. Again as I've said above, when professional concern dominates our college education, we may lose the essence of our educational experience.Indeed, facing these two challenges, how can students manage to be what the employers seek and at the same time to enjoy a valuable, insightful and rewarding educational experience?For me, the solution to the problem lies in what can be called an "Educational Synthesis". I remember attending a lecture by Professor Tu Weiming, director of Harvard Yenching Institute. In his lecture, Professor Tu argued that the ideal state of college education is to arrive at a synthesis, a combination of specific knowledge, humanistic insight and sense of social responsibility.Admittedly, there is much to do to bridge the gap between our educational experience in college and the social employment in society. "Educational synthesis" can help us narrow the gap. Fortunately, today's college education provides us with such a diverse world. From this diverse world we may choose what we want to form our own educational synthesis.Ladies and gentlemen, as Charles Dickens once commented upon the time of the French Revolution, "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times." And I'm afraid so it is with our time.I believe, once we achieve our own educational synthesis, we will be able to transform our challenges into opportunities. We will be able to see the best time of our life. And more importantly, we will be able to see the best time of our nation. Thank you.

字号: 大 中 小 2002中国人大考博作文：全球化的机遇和挑战Opportunities and challenges with the coming of globalizationGlobalization is a historical process, referring to the increasing integration of economies around the world, particularly through trade and financial flows and the movement of people and knowledge across international borders. With the coming of globalization, it brings us both opportunities and challenges.Greater interconnectedness among the world’s people seems to promise a “global village” in which the destructive antagonisms of the past can be left behind, replaced by global cooperation and enriching diversity. Global markets offer grater opportunity of people to tap into more and large markets around the world. It means that they can have access to more capital flows, technology, cheaper imports, and larger export markets. As globalization has progressed, living standards, particularly when measured by broader indicators of well-being, have improved significantly in virtually all countries.But the actual experience of globalization has not fulfilled such promise as above. Instead, it has given us more poor people than the world has ever know and increased threats to the environmental conditions on which humans life itself depends. It has led many to fear the loss of hard-won social and environmental protections and even of meaningful self-government. And the markets do not necessarily ensure that the benefits of increased efficiency are shared by all. Also the strongest gains have been made by the advanced countries and only some of the developing countries.Globalization is both irreversible and, in its present form, unsustainable. What will come after it is far from determined. Countries must be prepared to embrace the policies needed, and in the case of the poorest counties may need the support of the international community as the do so.q2630727如果我回答的好请给我分 谢谢BCDA

Challenge pain The life gives us joyful at the same time, also can in center mix with the pain unconsciously.Each people all like joyfully, joyful, but the life is complex, can come across the setback, be sad unavoidably, thereupon, that moment which approaches in the pain, then can in on the different person's body, have the different result, some human of strength, some human of spiritless, some people do everything possible, some people leave free butcher.Different manner, different method, also can have the different mood down to the different consequence. The mood is human's mood, talks clearly with difficulty, actually quite bright, some people may regard the defeat for the power which leads the way, regards the pain for the successful favorable turn, but some people only can become the pain captive.Some people face the pain, the mood only then are sorrowful, the world lost the brilliance as if, the life has lost the existence significance. Thereupon arrives in the pain, blames god and man, is even deliberately bad, constantly only is wants through others and the external force function change present situation, the pain cannot be delicate because of you but reduces. Perhaps, when you facing pain, others may help you, even may help you to pass the difficulty, but lives is realistic after all, since we have not been able always others to come own life. Life road more times are need a our person, two feet walk, no matter front path is whether smooth.The pain is in each person life all must experience, so long as you exist in the bustling place. Human's life is impossible all is the level road, human's life is impossible all is the pain revolves, perhaps just because has the painful the existence, only then causes in the life happily to appear is well worth preciously, perhaps really should that speech "not have the painful the life is the perfect life."Faces up to the pain, treats as the pain in the life a rare experience, or treats as the life journey a record . Then, we make a fresh start by the sincere smile. Pondered, the pain justs like the life the seasoning, after the struggle, the pain gives you is happy, after unsuccessfully, painful not only period of time, possibly is the entire life regret, however after all already finalized, regretted too has been also already late, by now, the pain became has defeated you the master, carefully thinks, how life taste must have, actually all in and yours assurance.Sometimes, the challenge pain taste sufficiently lets the human exert oneself, lets you realize successful pleased. When you in after-working hours, shove open the window, outside discovered already the sunlight was early bright, again was not oneself is frustrated the time to hide the haze, again also did not have that section of painful memory, this moment, the pain also was afraid the sunlight general to hide in as if in the clouds, did not see the trace, looked like own really always on not to meet the pain to be same. 挑战痛苦 生活给予我们快乐的同时，也会在不知不觉中夹杂着痛苦。每个人都喜欢愉悦、快乐，可是生活是复杂的，难免会遇到挫折、悲伤，于是，在痛苦来临的那一刻，便会在不同人的身上，产生出不同的结果，有人坚强，有人懦弱，有人想方设法，有人任由宰割。不同的态度，不同的方法，也会产生出不同的心情以至于不同的后果。心情即人的心境，难以说清，却又相当明朗，有人可以视失败为前行的动力，视痛苦为成功的转机，而有些人只能成为痛苦的俘虏。有人面对痛苦，心情只有悲哀，仿佛世界失去光彩，生命失去了存在的意义。于是在痛苦到来的时候，怨天尤人，甚至于自暴自弃，一味的只是想通过别人和外力的作用改变现状，痛苦不会因为你的柔弱而减少。也许，当你面对痛苦时，别人可以帮你，甚至可以帮助你度过难关，但生活毕竟是现实的，我们不能总是以来别人来过自己的生活。生活的路更多的时候是需要我们自己一个人、两只脚的走下去，不论前面的道路是否平坦。痛苦是每个人人生之中都必须的经历，只要你存在于红尘之中。人的一生不可能全是坦途，人的一生也不可能全是痛苦所围绕，或许正因为有痛苦的存在，才使生活中的美好显得弥足珍贵，也许真的应了那句话“没有痛苦的人生不是完美的人生。”正视痛苦，把痛苦当作人生中一次不可多得的经验，或者当作人生旅程的一次记录 。然后，我们以真诚的微笑重新开始。细想想，痛苦犹如生活的调味品，奋斗之后，痛苦给予你的是甜蜜，碌碌无为之后，痛苦的不只是一段时间，可能是一生一世的后悔，然而当一切都已经定型后，后悔也已经太晚了，这时，痛苦就成了打败你的高手 , 仔细想想，要拥有怎样的生活滋味，其实全在与你自己的把握。有时候，挑战痛苦的滋味足以让人奋发，让你体会成功的快意。当你在工作之余，推开窗，发现外面早已经阳光灿烂，再也不是自己失意时的隐霾，再也没有那段痛苦的记忆，此刻，仿佛痛苦也害怕阳光一般的躲进云中，不见踪影，就象自己真的从来就没有遇到过痛苦一样。
