名校勵(lì)志英語演講 第157期:跨越物質(zhì)的藩籬 讓世界今非昔比(14)

[00:01.05]That's a great motto for all of us——find somebody to be successful for. 這句話對(duì)于我們所有人來說都是至理箴言，尋找一些人， [00:07.43]Raise their hopes. Rise to their needs. 并為了他們的希望和需要而成功。 [00:14.29]If you think about your life after graduation as you look into the mirror tonight after the partying is done— 在今晚這場典禮結(jié)束后，你們考慮畢業(yè)后的人生路時(shí)—— [00:23.17]that shouldn't get such a big cheer—you may look in the mirror tonight 好像不應(yīng)該如此歡呼——你們對(duì)鏡自照， [00:33.09]and you may see somebody who is not really sure what to do with their lives. That's what you may see. 在鏡中看到的也許是一個(gè)不知該如何應(yīng)對(duì)生活的人?；蛟S你是這么看自己的。 [00:40.55]But a troubled child might look at you and see a mentor. A homebound senior citizen might see a lifeline. 但當(dāng)一個(gè)迷茫的孩子看著你時(shí)，他看到的也許是一個(gè)良師益友；一個(gè)困居家中的老人看到的也許是生命的希望； [00:48.55]The folks at your local homeless shelter might see a friend. 你們當(dāng)?shù)厥杖菟锬切o家可歸的人看到的也許是一個(gè)朋友。 [00:53.24]None of them care how much money is in your bank account or whether you're important at work, or whether you're famous around town. 他們不會(huì)去考慮你銀行賬戶里又很多錢，你在工作上是否擔(dān)任重要職務(wù)，你在鎮(zhèn)里是否很有名氣—— [01:02.36]They just know that you're somebody who cares, somebody who makes a difference in their lives. 他們只知道你是一個(gè)關(guān)心他們的人，是一個(gè)改變他們生活的人。 [01:09.51]So Class of 2009, that's what building a body of work is all about. 所以2009屆畢業(yè)生們，這就是成就一項(xiàng)事業(yè)所需要的全部—— [01:16.15]It's about the daily labor, the many individual acts, the choices, 日常的辛勤工作，各種大大小小的個(gè)人行為， [01:21.48]large and small that add up over time, over a lifetime to a lasting legacy. 長期的，甚至是一生積累下來的大大小小的選擇，這一切構(gòu)成一種永久的財(cái)富。 [01:30.40]That's what you want on your tombstone. 這才是你們想要的墓志銘。
