Now this ten-year grid shows this same “yin-yang thang”, and I’m trying to copyright that: yin-yang thang – copyright Tom Hanks.
It shows the same yin-yang thang, thank you, on graduation day 2011.
You know we all have these devices that can make a permanent record of revolutionary change on the other side of the globe, as well as hate-filled diatribes from across town.
Fewer and fewer in our country go to bed hungry, but did you see how obesity now affects about half our population.

《聽力挑戰2 – 英文原文》
No matter how many bargains we find at the local U-Mart, many of us still struggle to pay the rent and the utilities.
Our country is no longer at physical or even ideological war with our enemies for most of last century, but in the eleven and a half years of the third millennium, our arm forces have been fighting in the field for nine of them.
Purchasing intellectual property and the work of artists we admire is as simple as clicking a mouse and paying less than a few bucks, which means you may find that there’s no guarantee in making a living at your chosen discipline.

Our country is no longer at physical(實質上) or even ideological(意識形態上) war with our enemies for most of last century, but in the eleven and a half years of the third millennium(第三個1000年/千禧年), our arm forces(武力) have been fighting in the field for nine of them.

購買Purchasing知識產權intellectual property和我們喜愛admire的藝術家作品，只需要點擊滑鼠clicking a mouse，花不到幾塊錢a few bucks，這代表什麼意義？這代表你過去自己選擇的專業chosen discipline，不再保證你能夠拿來謀生making a living
