四十二天學會英語的模范短文[8]

Diligence—Foolish as a person is, he can succeed in his work if he works hard. That does not admit of any doubt.
Perseverance—When you fail, don't lose heart. Keep on working until you accomplish your aim.
Honesty—If you tell lies or does not keep your words, no one will rely on you. I would rather be scolded than cheat (others).
我寧愿受苦難不愿失敗。換句話說,獲致成功是我唯一的愿望。我們大家知道成功要素很多。現在讓我們把它們最重要的寫在下面。
勤勉――一個人雖然不大聰明,但是他地能做成他的工作,如果他苦干的話。那是不容置疑的。
毅力――當你失敗的時候,不要灰心。要繼續工作,直到你達到目的為止。
誠實――如果你說謊或不守信,沒有人會信賴你。我寧愿挨罵不愿欺騙人。

第四十一天:My aim 我的志向
Whatever a man's status is (may be), he must have an aim. If not, he can hardly stand on his own two feet in the world. That stands to reason.
However important fame and wealth may be, we must not let them become our object in life. We should aim at doing something useful to the society.
If my aim can come true, I hope (wish) to be a teacher. However, teaching is by no means an easy thing. I must apply myself closely to my studies so as to be able to cope with my duties (as a teacher).
不論人是什么身份,他必須有一個志向。如果沒有的話,他很難立足于世上。那是顯而易見的。
不論名利如何重要,我們切不可讓它們成為我們生活之目標。我們應當志在做一些對社會有益的事情。
如果我的志向能實現的話,我就希望成為一個老師。然而,教書并不是一容易的事情。我必須專心學業以便能應因我的職責。

第四十二天:Our national father 我的國父
There is no doubt that Dr. Sun Yat-Sen is the greatest man that I ever known in my whole life. He set up the Republic of China, so we call him our National Father.
He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. His aim was to liberate China from the hands of the Manchu Dynasty. He had not met with result, but he was not discouraged at all. As a result, he accomplished his end in the long run.
To sum up, his strong will and indomitable spirit are worth our worship and imitation (are worth our worshiping and imitating).
無疑的,中山先生是我一生知道的最大的人物。他建立中民國,所以我他為我的國父。
他致力革命凡四十年。他的目的是清朝手里解放中國。他曾遭遇屢次的失敗,但他卻一點也不灰心。那是不需說的。結果,他終于達到目的。
總而言之,他堅強的意志和不屈不撓的精神(是)值得我們的崇拜和仿效。
