小時候，我們讀了很多童話故事，渴望擁有神奇魔法，從而改變世界;長大后，我們逐漸走出童話故事，不再幻想擁有超能力，但依舊有一顆改變世界的熾熱之心。光華美高本期演講的話題是“If I could change one thing, what would I do?” 六位選手同臺競技，各展風采，讓我們一起來傾聽大家內心的聲音。

如果我能改變一件事，我會怎么做?在我看來，去除這個世界的謊言將會給世界帶來很大的變化。謊言有破壞人際關系和破壞社會結構的危險，所以這也是我迫切需要對此做出改變的原因。

In my eyes, removing lies from this world will make a big difference.Lies threaten to damage relationships and undermine the fabric of the society, both of which are in dire need of change.

如果我能回到過去，我可能會少打籃球，因為經常聽父母說打籃球會對我的學習產生負面影響。然而，我又并不想這樣做，因為打籃球讓我獲得了很多樂趣、瘋狂和朋友，籃球已經是我生活中不可缺少的一部分。所以，如果我能改變一件事，那或許就是少打籃球,但我并不會這么做。

I really enjoy playing basketball, but I often hear parents say that playing basketball will negatively influence my study. If I can go back in time, I might play less basketball and use the time to improve my grades. Because that was that my parents expected. However, I don’t want to do this because playing basketball is my passion. I have gained lots of fun, madness, and friends through playing basketball. Playing basketball is now the indispensable part of my life.

So, if I can change a thing, it might be playing less basketball. But I won’t.

戴同學

如果我能改變一件事，會是什么?有些人可能想改變他們的教育、財富或生活，但我迫切想要改變的是青少年吸毒問題。我是一個普通人，過著正常的生活，一開始知道有人在吸毒，但我不是很在乎。但隨著經驗的增長，我逐漸意識到吸毒的危害，因而我想讓毒品從世界上消失。

If I could change one thing, what would it be? Some people may want to change their education, wealth or life. But the thing that I want to change urgently is that teenage drug usage problem.

First of all, to clarify, I am not a drug user. I am an ordinary person, living a normal life, knowing that people were using drugs, but I didn't care about it. But as I grow in experience, as an international student, I hear more or less about international students smoking laughing gas and marijuana.

趙同學

如果我能改變什么，我會把過去的自己變成一個自律的人，告訴自己那些借口都是假的，是憑空捏造的謊言。生活中一切美好的果實都從挑戰開始，一切上坡路都是值得的。成功不會向我走來，也不會從天而降，它總是艱難的。如果你想要，你就得去爭取，而自律是成功的關鍵。

Do I really have no time or am I really tired enough? No. Excuse always sound best to the person who’s making them up. If I can change something, I will turn my past self into a self-disciplined person and tell myself the excuses are not valid, they are conjured up, they are fabricated, they are all lies. And you can stop the lies with the truth, the truth is I have time, I have the skill and I’m not tired enough. However, I realized there was nothing I could do to change the past, but I can still change who I am now. Self-discipline is the key to all success. If you can't even defeat your own heart, how can you defeat the world? The fruit of everything good in life begins with a challenge, everything with uphill is worthwhile. Success is not going to come to me and not going to fall in my lap, it’s always going to be difficult. If you want it, you gotta go get it, wake your ass up or awaken the beast inside, it’s game on, it’s go season.

姚同學

我是一個具有領導能力、組織能力和社交能力的人。為了充分發揮我的能力，我喜歡組織各種各樣的活動。結果證明我真的很擅長這個。我的**次嘗試是從一場籃球比賽開始的。這次比賽的規模覆蓋了上海所有的高中生，對當時沒有經驗的我來說是一個很大的挑戰。作為領導者，我需要考慮多方面的問題，*括招生、融資、廣告、管理等。我把所有的熱情都投入到這場比賽中，我的薪水得到了回報。最后，比賽取得了巨大的成功。這次的成功給我帶來了舉辦課外活動的信心和興趣。首先，我仍然可以平衡我的學習時間和其他**。漸漸地，我花在課程上的時間越來越少，但我并沒有意識到潛在的問題，仍然相信我可以處理好這兩方面。直到上學期，我的成績報告把我從幻想中喚醒。

I’m a person with leadership, organizing ability, and sociability. In order to fully utilize my abilities, I love to organize all kinds of activities. The result proved that I’m really good at this. My first attempt started with a basketball competition. The scale of this competition covered all the high school students in Shanghai, so it’s a great challenge for me, who had no experience at that time. As the leader, I had to worry about multiple facet, including enrolling, financing, advertising, and managing. I put all of my passion in this competition, and my pay got its reward. At last, the competition gain huge success. The success brought me full confidence and interest in holding extracurricular activities. At firsts, I can still balance my study time and other works. Gradually, I spent less and less time in my courses, but I did not aware the underlying problem and still believed that I can handle both side. Until last semester, my grade report woke me up from my fantasy.

生活往往不是一帆風順的，作為學生的我們，有時我們只是勉強記住，而往往不能真正獲得結果，往往需要改變方法才能真正成功。我相信有很多同學都是熬夜學習，上課專心聽講，但在考試時更累不知所措，為什么是這樣呢?我在演講中為大家揭示答案。

Life is often not plain sailing, as students of us, sometimes we just hard to memorize often can not really gain, often need to change the method to really succeed.

I believe there are many students here are staying up late to study, class hard sleepy attentively listen, but in the exam is more tired at a loss, so why is this?

本場冠軍經過激烈的角逐，戴嘉豪同學憑借出色的發揮獲得了本場演講的**名。小小的身體，大大的夢想，希望大家都能保持改變世界的初心，蓄積能量，將改變付諸行動，讓世界因你而不一樣。
