说好的未来呢？那些骗了我们的毕业演讲

Commencement speeches are inspiring. They're filled with goosebump inducing anecdotes, brilliant metaphors and words of wisdom and advice that make you want to run out the door and chase your dreams down the block.

毕业演讲往往鼓舞人心。这些演讲中充满了让你起鸡皮疙瘩的小故事，绝妙的修辞，充满智慧的箴言和劝谏，让你跃跃欲试，恨不得立刻冲出门去，追梦而行。
