最近相信大家都有看到一些关于澳洲名校的考试试题辱华事件的新闻。
而最近几天又发生了马里兰大学中国留学生涉辱华的毕业演讲。
小胖不禁想问，中国近年来素质、成就、地位均大为提高，为什么还有这样的事件频发，国外高校辱华就算了，现在连自己都要抹黑自己了？
小胖先来讲讲澳洲名校的辱华试题事件
问题6：有俗语说，在中国，政府官员只有在＿＿＿＿的时候才会说真话： 正确答案：d.当他们喝醉或者马虎时
问题10：在中国，现代化、引进新技术以及工业改革的主要障碍是什么？ 正确答案：d.缺乏有技能的工人，特别是管理者
上面两道题就是莫纳什大学(MonashUniversity)人力资源管理课小测试中被当地中国留学认为最有争议的两道试题。 看了这些题目，有墨尔本的中国留学生表示，“我对我的祖国有了一种前所未有的陌生感”。因为这样的说辞，和他们生活了二十几年的地方对不上。
当地的华文媒体、微报公号也对这样的题目发出了反驳：
这件事也引起中国驻墨尔本总领事馆关注。该馆教育组的工作人员19日表示，他们接到了学生反映的情况，并已经向校方表达关切，要求校方调查，认真妥善处理。 起初，不少中国留学生都把不满都抛向出题老师。他被挖出是莫纳什Berwick校区的讲师Aaron Wijeratne。
但据了解的情况是，所谓中国“俗语”的那句话，竟然来自教科书，是包括莫纳什大学、unsw、anu等澳大利亚一众高等学府都在使用的教材。
教材中表述的参考材料来自香港《南华早报》2003年的文章。文中讲述了深圳对于1432名国家干部的调查，发现他们大多数时候都不能告诉同事和群众真相。
但是一位莫纳什的在校生高崧发现，学校用2003年的观点教导学生去看现今的中国，显然不客观、不准确。况且就连莫纳什大学都有规定，参考文献必须用最近5至10年的，再远的就没有参考价值了。
在当地留学生的努力下，最新的情况是，莫纳什大学校方19日就此事做出回应。莫纳什大学商学院教育副院长Rorbert Brooks在给学生的邮件中说，试题中的一些问题令人不满，也不代表莫纳什大学的观点。他们将立即撤回这个测试。
目前，该校给出的处理意见包括： 1.暂停出题老师的工作; 2.进一步调查更多涉及此观点的材料; 3.强调那些说法不代表学校观点。 莫纳什大学商学院院长Colm Kearney在回应邮件中说，对发生这种情况表示毫无保留的道歉。
在事实面前，承认错误是必然的，这个事件也算有了圆满的结尾。
接下来讲讲中国留学生毕业演讲的辱华事件
最近一则中国留学生在毕业典礼上辱华的视频又在朋友圈刷屏了！
马里兰大学的毕业典礼上，中国留学生Yang Shuping（杨舒平）受邀为全校师生做毕业演讲，这本是一件值得骄傲的事，但她说出的话，却让中国留学生们听了十分生气！

中国留学生在马里兰大学毕业典礼上的演讲原文
Good afternoon faculty students parents and friends.
I am truly honored and grateful to speak at the commencement for the University of Maryland, Class of 2017.
People often ask me: Why did you come to the University of Maryland?
I always answer: Fresh air.
Five years ago, as I step off the plane from China, and left the terminal at Dallas Airport. I was ready to put on one of my five face masks, but when I took my first breath of American air. I put my mask away.
The air was so sweet and fresh, and oddly luxurious.
I was surprised by this. I grew up in a city in China, where I had to wear a face mask every time I went outside, otherwise, I might get sick.
However, the moment I inhaled and exhaled outside the airport.
I felt free.
No more fog on my glasses, no more difficult breathing, no more suppression.
Every breath was a delight. As I stand here today, I cannot help, but recall that feeling of freedom.
At the University of Maryland, I assume feel another kind of fresh air for which I will be forever grateful — the fresh air of free speech.
Before I came to United States, I learned in history class about the Declaration of Independence, but these words had no meaning to me— Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness.
I was merely memorizing the words to get good grades.
These words sounded so strange, so abstract and so foreign to me, until I came to University of Maryland.
I have leaned the right to freely express oneself is sacred in American.
Each day in Maryland, I was encouraged to express my opinions on controversial issues.
I could challenge a statement made by my instructor. I could even rate my professors online.
But nothing prepared me for the culture shock I experienced when I watched a university production of the play— Twilight: Los Angeles.
Twilight is a play by Anna Deavere Smith about the 1992 Los Angeles Riots
The riots followed acquittal of four Los Angeles police officers in the videotaped arrest and beating of Rodney King.
For six days, the city was in chaos as citizens took to the streets.
In Twilight, the student actors were openly talking about racism, sexism and politics.
I was shocked, I never saw such topic could be discussed openly.
The play was my first taste of political storytelling, one that makes the audience think critically.
I have always had a burning desire to tell these kinds of stories, but I was convinced that only authorities on the narrative, only authorities could define the truth.
However, the opportunity to immerse myself in the diverse community at the University of Maryland exposed me to various, many different perspectives on truth.
I soon realized that here I have the opportunity to speak freely.
My voice matters.
Your voice matters.
Our voices matter.
Civil engagement is not a task just for politicians. I have witnessed this when I saw my fellow students marching in Washington DC, voting in the presidential election and raising money for support various causes.
I have seen that everyone has a right to participate and advocate for change.
I used to believe that one individual participation could not make a difference, but here we are, United Terps.
Together, we can push our society to be more just open and peaceful.
Class of 2017, we are graduating from a university that embraces a liberal arts education that nurtures us to think critically, and also to care and feel for humanity. We are equipped with the knowledge of various disciplines and we are ready to face to the challenges of our society.
Some of us may go to graduate school, some us may step into professions and some of us may begin a journey of exploration.
But no matter what we do, remember, democracy and free speech should not be taken for granted.
Democracy and freedom are the fresh air that is worth fighting for.
Freedom is oxygen. Freedom is passion. Freedom is love.
And as a French philosopher Jean Paul Sartre once said: freedom is a choice, our future is dependent on the choices we make today and tomorrow.
We are all playwrights of the next chapters of our lives. Together, we right the human history.
My friends, enjoy the fresh air and never let it go.
Thank you.
她的演讲全程围绕两个要点：
中国的空气肮脏不堪，而美国“fresh and sweet”的空气竟然好到令她无比惊讶。
中国没有democracy, 只有在美国她才体会到什么是democracy和自由，在美国她可以想说啥说啥，想做啥做啥。 然而，这些不都是美国人天天在街边小报上看到的中国吗？
但她，却在全校师生面前为这些小报背书，把美国人对中国的成见再一次放大。
对此，中国网友和留学生们看不下去了： “ @吃炸鸡看星星：听她演讲，坐在底下的中国留学生尴尬癌都要犯了吧
@我叫常HL：这种脑残简直丢人。为了绿卡也是不息一切代价。中国优秀人才不停的在壮大中国，这些鼠辈不停的在破坏人家的努力。一不说事实，而是夸大虚假信息。昆明空气相当好。哪怕是广州不带口罩也没问题。美国你去说说n word试试，你去说说基督教试试，别被宰了都还觉得言论很自由。
@璐璐不知道该叫啥：空气污染确实存在，但我所生活的城市并没有看见她所说的人们都带着防毒口罩，不应用相对严重的城市最严重的某一时段去代表我们中国现在全国的面貌。作为一个美国留学生，我能感受到美国空气的相对良好但并不是甜的。“橘生淮南则为橘，生于淮北则为枳” 水土不同文化不同。在公共场合应注意自己的言辞。
@仓妹儿：啊真是火大，虽然要说的话有些point确实没错，但我实在不懂这样夸大其词在一群美国人面前跪舔有几个意思。而且言论极其肤浅。就你马里兰大学空气最甜，就你昆明雾霾最重出门你要戴五层面罩，就你最厉害来us之前完全不懂free speech/democracy。而且我他妈实在不懂这个作为代表一届的毕业演讲意义在哪儿？
@HolySean：Real interesting[微笑]这妹子要是抽不到H1B全国人民都替她惋惜[微笑]希望继续甜下去不过要小心糖尿病！
@hw3908：拿到工作offer了吗，抽到H1B了吗，否则“fresh and sweet”的空气享受不了几年的 ”杨舒平的演讲，不禁让人想起去年，同样是中国留学生，哈佛大学生物系博士何江作为优秀毕业生代表，在哈佛毕业典礼上的致辞。这也是哈佛历史上第一位享此殊荣的中国学生。
何江说，他想让美国的大学生听听来自中国的声音。最终，凭借与众不同的理科视角和新颖的中国农村故事打动了哈佛学子，短短六七分钟的演讲，何江赢得了现场三万多人的掌声。
何江演讲视频：The Spider's Bite（蜘蛛之咬）
有网友总结，中国留学生分三种：
第一种，就像哈佛何江那样通过自己的优秀不断改变外国人对中国印象的精英。
第二种，没啥能力但尽力不给国家摸黑添麻烦的吃瓜群众。
最后一种就是贬低自己以期望获得认同感的杨舒平之流了。
对于以上两个事件你们有什么看法？ 欢迎留言区说说 END
