Ladies and gentlemen,

Thanks for attending the graduation ceremony(毕业典礼) at our school. Firstly, I'd like to congratulate all the students here today. I remember meeting all of you when you were just starting Grade 7. You were all so full of energy and thirsty for knowledge. And yes, some of you were a little difficult to deal with! But today I see a hall full of talented young adults who are full of hope for the future. You've all grown up so much and I'm so proud of you.

Although you've all worked very hard over the last three years. None of you did it alone. I hope you'll remember the important people in your lives who helped and supported you—your parents, teachers, and friends. Please consider what they've done for you and what they mean to you. Never forget to thank the people around you.

Lastly, I'll give you some advice on how to deal with your future. The life in senior high school will be harder and you will have many difficult tasks in front of you. You'll make mistakes along the way, but the key is to learn from your mistakes and never give up. Along with difficulties, many exciting things are also waiting for you. Behind each door you open are chances to learn new things and you're able to make your own choices. Choose wisely and be responsible (有责任的)for your decisions and actions. Although you have to go your own ways, I hope you'll come back to visit our school in a few years.

As you set out (启程) on your new journey, you shouldn't forget where you came from. The future is yours. Good luck!
