【解析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述何江，中国第一位在哈佛毕业典礼上发表演讲的人的事情。2016年5月26日，何江作为一名哈佛大学生物专业的研究生，将会成为第一个中国学生在毕业典礼上做演讲。何江出生在中国湖南一个小山村，在演讲中，他说道，教育可以改变人生，希望自己的经历能鼓励更多的农村学生不遗余力的学习来实现自己的梦想。跟其他中国农村家庭不同的是，何江的父母从来没有考虑到外出打工，去大城市找工作，他的父亲对他和弟弟的学习要求很高，而他们的母亲在父亲责罚他们的时候，也会站在他和弟弟这边。其实能站在哈佛的毕业典礼上演讲这一切也并不是偶然。刚来到哈佛，何江因为英语差跟不上教授的课程，后来他通过和本土的学生交流来提高自己的口语能力。一年之后，他就成为班级的尖子生。在教授Diana Eck鼓励下，何江申请演讲的机会，因为他想让同学们听到中国的声音。最终击败三名学生，得到演讲的机会。何江将在毕业后去麻省理工继续深造。
