名人演講作為演講類的英語素材，演講者清晰的口語表達及其內(nèi)容的寫作手法都是值得我們學(xué)習(xí)借鑒的。今天的名人演講是著名歌手泰勒斯威夫特在紐約大學(xué)為22屆畢業(yè)生帶去的畢業(yè)演講。請結(jié)合視頻內(nèi)容，開始英語學(xué)習(xí)吧！

原文及翻譯

But I really can't complain about not having a normal college experience to you, because you went to NYU during a global pandemic, being essentially locked into your dorms and having to do classes over Zoom. Everyone in college during normal times stresses about test scores, but on top of that, you also had to pass like 1,000 Covid tests. I imagine the idea of a normal college experience was all you wanted, but in this case, you and I both learned that you don't always get all the things in the bag that you selected from the menu on the delivery surface that is life. 

但我真的不能抱怨你沒有正常的大學(xué)經(jīng)歷，因為你是在全球疫情期間去紐約大學(xué)的，基本上被鎖在宿舍里，不得不通過 Zoom 上課。正常情況下，大學(xué)里的每個人都在為考試成績而煩惱，但除此之外，你還必須通過大約 1,000 次 Covid 測試。我想，你想要的只是正常的大學(xué)經(jīng)歷，但在這種情況下，你和我都了解到，你并不總是能得到你從菜單中選擇的包里的所有東西，這就是生活。

You get what you get, and as I would like to say to you wholeheartedly, you should be very proud of what you've done with it. Today, you leave New York University and then go out into the world searching for what's next, and so will I. So, as a rule, I try not to give anyone unsolicited advice unless they ask for it. I'll go into this more later, I guess. 

你得到你得到的東西，我想全心全意地對你說，你應(yīng)該為你所做的一切感到非常自豪。今天，你離開紐約大學(xué)，然后走向世界尋找下一步，我也會這樣。所以，作為一項規(guī)則，我盡量不給任何人未經(jīng)請求的建議，除非他們要求。我想我稍后會更詳細地討論這個問題。

I have been officially solicited in this situation to impart whatever wisdom I might have to tell you things that have helped me so far in my life. Please bear in mind that I in no way feel qualified to tell you what to do. You've worked, struggled, sacrificed, studied, and dreamed your way here today, so you know what you're doing. You'll do things differently than I did them, and for different reasons, so I won't tell you what to do because no one likes that. 

在這種情況下，我被正式請求傳授我所能擁有的任何智慧，告訴你們迄今為止對我的生活有幫助的事情。請記住，我絕對沒有資格告訴你們該怎么做。你們今天已經(jīng)努力、奮斗、犧牲、學(xué)習(xí)和夢想，所以你們知道自己在做什么。你們做的事情會和我做的不同，原因也不同，所以我不會告訴你們該怎么做，因為沒人喜歡那樣。

I will, however, give you some life packs I wish I knew when I was starting out my dreams of a career and navigating life, love, pressure, choices, shame, hope, and friendship. The first of which is: Life can be heavy, especially if you try to carry it all at once. Part of growing up and moving into new chapters of your life is about catch and release. What I mean by that is knowing what things to keep and what things to release. You can't carry all things, all grudges, all updates on your ex, all enviable promotions your school bully got at the hedge fund his uncle started. 

然而，我會給你們一些我希望在我開始我的職業(yè)夢想和駕馭生活、愛情、壓力、選擇、羞恥、希望和友誼時就知道的生活包。其中第一個是：生活可能會很沉重，特別是如果你試圖一次承擔(dān)所有的事情。成長和進入人生新篇章的一部分就是抓住和釋放。我的意思是知道哪些東西要保留，哪些東西要放棄。你不可能背負所有的事情，所有的怨恨，所有關(guān)于前任的最新消息，你學(xué)校里的惡霸在他叔叔創(chuàng)辦的對沖基金里得到的所有令人羨慕的晉升。

Decide what is yours to hold and let the rest go. Oftentimes, the good things in your life are lighter anyway, so there's more room for them. One toxic relationship can outweigh so many wonderful, simple joys. You get to pick what your life has time and room for. Be discerning.

決定什么是你的，放棄其他的。很多時候，你生活中的美好事物反正都比較輕松，所以有更多的空間去容納它們。一段有毒的關(guān)系可以抵消許多美好、簡單的快樂。你可以選擇你的生活有時間和空間去做的事情。要明智。
