第3篇：新东方俞敏洪演讲稿
各位同学、各位领导：
大家上午好!
非常高兴许校长给我这么崇高的荣誉，谈一谈我在北大的体会。
可以说，北大是改变了我一生的地方，是提升了我自己的地方，使我从一个农村孩子最后走向了世界的地方。毫不夸张地说，没有北大，肯定就没有我的今天。北大给我留下了一连串美好的回忆，大概也留下了一连串的痛苦。正是在美好和痛苦中间，在挫折、挣扎和进步中间，最后找到了自我，开始为自己、为家庭、为社会能做一点事情。
学生生活是非常美好的，有很多美好的回忆。我还记得我们班有一个男生，每天都在女生的宿舍楼下拉小提琴，希望能够引起女生的注意，结果后来被女生扔了水瓶子。我还记得我自己为了吸引女生的注意，每到寒假和暑假都帮着女生扛包。后来我发现那个女生有男朋友，我就问她为什么还要让我扛包，她说为了让男朋友休息一下。我也记得刚进北大的时候我不会讲普通话，全班同学第一次开班会的时候互相介绍，我站起来自我介绍了一番，结果我们的班长站起来跟我说：“俞敏洪你能不能不讲日语?”我后来用了整整一年时间，拿着收音机在北大的树林中模仿广播台的播音，但是到今天普通话还依然讲得不好。
人的进步可能是一辈子的事情。在北大是我们生活的一个开始，而不是结束。有很多事情特别让人感动。比如说，我们很有幸见过朱光潜教授。在他最后的日子里，是我们班的同学每天轮流推着轮椅在北大里陪他一起散步。每当我推着轮椅的时候，我心中就充满了对朱光潜教授的崇拜，一种神圣感油然而生。所以，我在大学看书最多的领域是美学。因为他写了一本《西方美学史》，是我进大学以后读的第二本书。
为什么是第二本呢?因为第一本是这样来的，我进北大以后走进宿舍，我有个同学已经在宿舍。那个同学躺在床上看一本书，叫做《第三帝国的兴亡》。所以我就问了他一句话，我说：“在大学还要读这种书吗?”他把书从眼睛上拿开，看了我一眼，没理我，继续读他的书。这一眼一直留在我心中。我知道进了北大不仅仅是来学*的，要读大量大量的书。你才能够有资格把自己叫做北大的学生。所以我在北大读的第一本书就是《第三帝国的兴亡》，而且读了三遍。后来我就去找这个同学，我说：“咱们聊聊《第三帝国的兴亡》”，他说：“我已经忘了。”
我也记得我的导师李赋宁教授，原来是北大英语系的主任，他给我们上《新概念英语》第四册的时候，每次都把板书写得非常的完整，非常的美丽。永远都是从黑板的左上角写起，等到下课铃响起的时候，刚好写到右下角结束。我还记得我的英国文学史的老师罗经国教授，我在北大最后一年由于心情不好，导致考试不及格。我找到罗教授说：“这门课如果我不及格就毕不了业。”，罗教授说：“我可以给你一个及格的分数，但是请你记住了，未来你一定要做出值得我给你分数的事业。”所以，北大老师的宽容、学识、奔放、自由，让我们真正能够成为北大的学生，真正能够得到北大的精神。当我听说许智宏校长对学生唱《隐形的翅膀》的时候，我打开视频，感动得热泪盈眶。因为我觉得北大的校长就应该是这样的。
谢谢大家！谢谢！
