I hope you learn humility by surviving failure and that you learn to be honest even when no one is looking.
我希望你在經受失敗的考驗之后能學會謙卑,也希望你能學會誠實,即使在沒有人注視你的時候。
I hope you learn to make your bed ,
我希望你能學會自己疊被子,
and mow the lawn and wash the car-and I hope nobody gives you a brand-new car when you are sixteen.
自己刈草坪,自己洗車--我還希望在你滿十六歲時沒有人送給你一輛嶄新的轎車。
It will be good if at least one time you can see a baby calf born,
假如你至少有一次機會看見小牛犢出生,
and you have a good friend to be with you if you ever have to put your old dog to sleep.
假如你不得不為你的老狗送終,那時有一位好朋友在場為你作伴--那樣該有多好啊!
