speeches,in which they either share their unforgotten experiences or give you some great
inspiration(灵感).
Michael Dell,University of Texas at Austin
And now you've accomplished something great and important here,and it's time for you to move
on to what's next.And you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps...You
must also commit to the adventure.Just have faith in the skills and the knowledge you've been
blessed(喝赐予)with and go
J.K.Rowling,Harvard University
Half my lifetime ago.I was striking an uneasy balance between my ambition and the expectation
from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,
but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about
failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.
Steve Jobs,Stanford University
Sometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don't lose faith...Your work is going
to fill a large part of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is
great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven't found it yet,
keep looking and don't settle.
Bill Gates,Harvard University
We need as many people as possible to have access to the advanced technology to lead to a
revolution in what human beings can do for one another.They are making it possible not just for
national governments,but for universities,smaller organizations,and even individuals to see
problems,see approaches and deal with the world's inequities (like hunger,poverty,and so
on.

During his time as Consul General,Ho issued thousands of visas to Jewish refugees,allowing them
to escape the fate of concentration camps.His efforts resulted in approximately 18,000 Jewish
refugees finding shelter in Shanghai between 1938 and 1940.
Ho's daughter,Ho Manli,accepted the award on behalf of her late father.She spoke about how
proud she was of her father's bravery and how important it is to remember his actions during such a
dark period in history
Lotte Marcus,a Jewish refugee whose family obtained visas from the Chinese Consulate,told her
story by video.Her family escaped to Shanghai and she spent more than seven years there before
heading to the US."14 people of our family who did not leave were all killed,"said Marcus,who
called Ho "the bright light in the darkness of the race murder.

standing up for what is right,even in the face of danger.It also highlights the role that individuals
can play in making a positive impact on the world.

attention to the often-forgotten stories of those who risked their lives to save others during the race

and seek for a better future.
Overall,the story of Ho Feng Shan is one of bravery,compassion,and humanity.It is a reminder
that even in the darkest of times.there are those who are willing to stand up and make a difference.

United States and Canada.The team tested 231 products for fluorine ()This is a key part
4 any PFAS.Fifty-two percent of those products contained a high fluorine level.5
(suggest)they contained at least one kind of PFAS.
Long-lasting or waterproof products are especially likely 6(contain)lots of fluorine.That
