4. The greatest generation.

Maybe your parents belonged to the generation too, more likely it's your grandparents.
可能你們的父親，更有可能是你們的祖父母，也屬于那一代人

不管怎樣，一戰和二戰之間出生的美國人比其它任何一代人所經歷的都要更多
It's easy for those of us born after the Second World War to see that the depression wouldn't last or that the Allies would win World War II,
二戰之后出生的我們這些人會很容易地看到，經濟大蕭條并不會持續很久，同盟國也會贏得二戰勝利
but back in the day there was no guarantee that America wouldn't go broke, there was no guarantee that the Axis wouldn't win.
但是在當時并沒有人能保證美國不會破產，也沒有人保證軸心國不會打贏
This generation faced poverty and rationing and the loss of loved ones, but they got back and came out on top.
當時那一代人面臨著貧窮，定量配給和失去心愛的人，但是他們最終走出了困境
If you haven't had the chance to talk with one of these senior citizens about what life was like during the Great Depression and the Second World War,

please do yourself a favor and hurry up.
那么不妨趕緊給自己找這么一個機會
This opportunity will not be around forever.
