另一個重要的積極者是雷德克利夫?qū)W院學生，曾經(jīng)的雷德克利夫?qū)W院學生海倫·凱勒
Helen Keller, quite literally, open our eyes and get us appreciate what is all around us.
海倫·凱勒能讓我們睜開雙眼感激周遭的事物

她在精彩的自傳中講了一個故事，關(guān)于一個曾去劍橋看望她的朋友
There were many more woods at the time. And the friend
當時還有很多樹林。那位朋友
walked around the woods and when her friend came back, Helen Keller asked her,
在樹林里散步，朋友回來時海倫·凱勒問她
"so what did you see? What did you note?", to which her friend responded, "well, nothing in particular."
你看到了什么？留意到什么？她的朋友回答說"沒什么特別的"
And Helen Keller responds to that "nothing in particular" in her autobiography. Let me read.
海倫·凱勒在自傳中對"沒什么特別的"作出回應，我來念念
I wondered how it was possible to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing of note.
"我奇怪怎么可能在樹林里走了一小時后，卻什么都沒看到
I who cannot see find hundreds of things:
我雖看不到卻發(fā)現(xiàn)許多東西
the delicate symmetry of a leaf, the smooth skin of a silver birch, the rough, shaggy bark of a pine.
精美對稱的葉子、銀色白樺的光滑樹皮、松樹粗糙的樹皮
I who am blind can give one hint to those who see: use your eyes as if tomorrow you will have been stricken blind.
我一個瞎子也能給看得見的人一個提示：像明天就會瞎掉那樣用你們的眼睛
Hear the music of voices, the songs of a bird, the mighty strains of an orchestra as if you would be stricken deaf tomorrow.
聽聲音的樂曲，鳥的鳴唱，一個管弦樂隊的強勁弦律，仿佛明天你會突然聾掉
Touch each object as if tomorrow your tactile sense would fail.
像明天就會失去觸覺那樣觸摸每樣東西
Smell the perfume of flowers, taste with relish each morsel, as if tomorrow you could never taste or smell again.
聞花朵的香氣，品嘗每一口的氣味仿佛明天你將永遠失去味覺和嗅覺
Make the most of every sense.
充分利用每一種感官
Glory in all the facets and pleasures and beauty which the world reveals to you."
每一面的美好，愉悅和美麗，這世界向你展現(xiàn)
