雙語故事·追夢(mèng) CHASING AFTER YOUR DREAM

讀雙語故事，看百味人生。閱讀是一生的功課，無論順境逆境，我們總能在文字里找到共鳴。以下是小編整理的追夢(mèng)/CHASING AFTER YOUR DREAM的內(nèi)容，讀一下吧，也許恰好是你喜歡的那一篇。

Dreams! How nice do they sound? I am not talking about the dreams we have when we are asleep but about the life long aspirations in each one of us. I am sure many or rather should I say all of us have goals in our lives. It could be the goal to be the next millionaire or to be a popular celebrity. Even if your goal is something small, you should be proud that you do have a goal.

Some never tend to think about goals in life. Although this may sound as a surprise it is true. These people take life as it comes without planning and go with the flow of events in their life. But again there are many who love planning for everything in their life.

In fact, having a goal in life would make anyone more focused and determined in reaching that target. Wish to get a job as a web designer? Your dream can come true if you work on your dream. How, you might ask? Start learning web-designing skills and when you’re skilled, you will find that you can get your desired job easily. So, do you see that all it takes for your goals to materialize is some work on your part? I have often heard some grumble that their dreams are just dreams and can never become true. Well, it all depends on what kind of goals you’re aiming at. If you’re dying to be the next star in Hollywood but you’re camera-shy and you don’t know anything about acting, your dream to make it big in Hollywood might remain as a dream. But if you’re very determined to make it and you’re already enrolling yourself in acting classes and talking to experienced actors about acting, you can be pretty sure that you’re already half-way there to make your dream into a reality. After all, if one is willing to put in the efforts, their goals can become within reach.

So never say that your dream will forever be a dream. Go ahead, plan on making that dream a reality and watch how easily you can attain that target.

Good luck.

【參考譯文】

夢(mèng)??！聽起來有美？我這里說的不是我們睡覺時(shí)做的夢(mèng)，而是指我償每個(gè)人心中一生的渴望。我肯定很多人，或者說每個(gè)人，都有自己的人生目標(biāo)。這個(gè)目標(biāo)也許是成為下個(gè)百萬富翁，也許是成為炙手可熱的名人。即使你的目標(biāo)很小，你也該因?yàn)樽约河心繕?biāo)而感到自豪。

有些人從來不考慮生活目標(biāo)。也許這聽起來有點(diǎn)意外，但這是真的。這種人的生活沒有計(jì)劃，順其自然，隨著生活中發(fā)生的事走。但另外很多人則把生活里的每件事都安排得周周到到。

事實(shí)上，擁有一個(gè)目標(biāo)可以使人更專注更堅(jiān)定地去實(shí)現(xiàn)它。想做網(wǎng)頁設(shè)計(jì)師嗎？只要你朝你的夢(mèng)想努力，它就可以實(shí)現(xiàn)。你也許會(huì)問：怎么實(shí)現(xiàn)？開始學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)頁設(shè)計(jì)的技術(shù)，當(dāng)你技術(shù)熟練后，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)得到夢(mèng)想的工作并不難?，F(xiàn)在你明白了嗎？要實(shí)現(xiàn)你的目標(biāo)你就要作出一些努力。我經(jīng)常聽有人報(bào)怨說他們的夢(mèng)想只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)，從來就不可能會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)。當(dāng)然，還要看你的目標(biāo)是什么。如果你想成為好萊塢下個(gè)明星都想瘋了，但是你在鏡頭面前害羞，對(duì)演戲一竅不通，那么你想在好萊塢混出頭的夢(mèng)想只能是個(gè)夢(mèng)。但是如果你下決心要實(shí)現(xiàn)它，而且還報(bào)名參加表演班的學(xué)習(xí)，跟有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的演員討教如何演戲，那么你很有可能正在實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的路上。說到底，只要一個(gè)人愿意努力，他們就有可能實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo)。

所以不要說你的夢(mèng)想永遠(yuǎn)都只是個(gè)夢(mèng)。行動(dòng)起來，列出實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的計(jì)劃，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)達(dá)成目標(biāo)多么的容易。

祝你好運(yùn)。

【人生啟迪】

人人都有夢(mèng)想，可為什么不是每個(gè)人都能美夢(mèng)成真呢？答案很簡單，因?yàn)椴皇敲總€(gè)人都行動(dòng)了。不論你想實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的意愿多么強(qiáng)烈，不論你一天重復(fù)憧憬多少次，除非你開始行動(dòng)，不然你的夢(mèng)想永遠(yuǎn)的只能是夢(mèng)而已。
