英语美文朗诵短文加翻译精选

f I Rest,I Rust

如果我休息,我就会生锈

The significant inscription(题词,铭文) found on an old key --"If I rest, I rust"-- would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest bit of idleness. Even the most industrious(勤勉的) person might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.

在一把旧钥匙上发现了一则意义深远的铭文——如果我休息,我就会生锈。对于那些懒散而烦恼的人来说,这将是至理名言。甚至最为勤勉的人也以此作为警示:如果一个人有才能而不用,就像废弃钥匙上的铁一样,这些才能就会很快生锈,并最终无法完成安排给自己的工作。

Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture---every department of human endeavor.

有些人想取得伟人所获得并保持的成就,他们就必须不断运用自身才能,以便开启知识的大门,即那些通往人类努力探求的各个领域的大门,这些领域包括各种职业:科学,艺术,文学,农业等。

Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness, had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer.

勤奋使开启成功宝库的钥匙保持光亮。如果休•米勒在采石场劳作一天后,晚上的时光用来休息消遣的话,他就不会成为名垂青史的地质学家。著名数学家爱德蒙•斯通如果闲暇时无所事事,就不会出版数学词典,也不会发现开启数学之门的钥匙。如果苏格兰青年弗格森在山坡上放羊时,让他那思维活跃的大脑处于休息状态,而不是借助一串珠子计算星星的位置,他就不会成为著名的天文学家。

Labor vanquishes all---not inconstant, spasmodic(痉挛的),or ill-directed labor; but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.

劳动征服一切。这里所指的劳动不是断断续续的,间歇性的或方向偏差的劳动,而是坚定的,不懈的,方向正确的每日劳动。正如要想拥有自由就要时刻保持警惕一样,要想取得伟大的,持久的成功,就必须坚持不懈地努力。

Youth-Samuel Ullman

《青春》作者塞缪尔·厄尔曼

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind.

青春不是年华,而是心境;

It is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees.

青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,

It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, vigor of the emotions;

而是深沉的意志、宏伟的想象、炽热的感情;

It is the freshness of the deep spring of life.

青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,

青春气贯长虹,勇锐盖过怯弱,

of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.

进去压倒苟安,如此锐气,

This often exits in a man of 60, more than a boy of 20.

二十后生有之,六旬男子则更多见。

nobody grows old merely by the number of years; we grow old by deserting our ideals.

年年有加,并非垂老;理想丢弃,方堕暮年。

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却,颓唐必至灵魂。

Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.

烦忧、惶恐、丧失自信,定使心灵扭曲,意气如灰。

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders,

无论年届花甲,抑或二八芳龄,心中皆有生命之欢乐,奇迹之诱惑,

the unfailing appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living.

孩童般天真久盛不衰。

In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station;

人人心中皆有一台天线,

so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from infinite,

只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,

so long as you are young.

你就青春永驻,风华常存。

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism,

一旦天线倒塌,锐气被冰雪覆盖,玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生,

then you've grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up,

几十年方二十,实已垂老矣;

to catch waves of optimism, there's hope you may die young at 80.

然则只要竖起天线,捕捉乐观的信号,你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉得年轻。

ong Walk to Freedom

漫漫自由路

Then I slowly saw that not only was I not free, but my brothers and sisters were not free. I sawthat it was not just my freedom that was curtailed, but the freedom of everyone who looked likeI did. That is when I joined the African National Congress, and that is when the hunger for myown freedom became the greater hunger for the freedom of my people. The chains on any oneof my people were the chains on all of them, the chains on all of my people were the chains onme. It was during these long and lonely years that my hunger for the freedom of my peoplebecame a hunger for the freedom of all people, white and black. I knew as well as I knewanything that the oppressor much be liberated just as surely as the oppressed.

我渐渐发现不光是我失去了自由,我的兄弟姐妹也失去了自由。 不光我的自由被大打折扣。看起来和我的一样的所有其他人的自由都被大打折扣。在我加入非洲国民大会的时候,也就是当我从追求个人的自由转变为追求人民的自由的时候。加于每一个人身上的枷锁,就是加于全体人民身上的;加于全体人民身上的枷锁就是加于我身上的枷锁。正是在那些漫长而又孤独的岁月里,我从为我自己的民族斗争转变成为全体的人民——白人和黑人,追求自由的奋斗。我深知正如其他事情一样,压迫者和被压迫者同样必须得到解放。

When I walked out of prison, that was my mission, to liberate the oppressed and theoppressor both. Some say that has now been achieved. But I know that that is not the case.The truth is that we are not yet free; we have merely achieved the freedom to be free, theright not to be oppressed. We have not taken the final step of our journey, but the first stepon a longer and even more difficult road. I have walked that long road to freedom. I have triednot to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that afterclimbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken amoment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back onthe distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comeresponsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended.

当我步出监狱的时候,我就把解放被压迫者以及压迫者视为我的使命。有人说这使命已经完成,但我知道并非如此,事实上我们并没有获得自由,我们只是获得争取自由的自由,获得了不被压迫的自由,我们的征程才刚刚开始,我们刚刚踏出这艰苦而又漫长的征程的第一步。在通往自由的道路上我走了很久。我努力不让自己止步。在这条路上我也曾迷失过,但我却发现了一个秘密,就是当爬过一座高山后,才发现原来还有更多的山要攀登,我只是在这里稍加歇息,看一看身边的美好风景,回顾一下自己所走过的路,但我只能稍作停留,因为随着自由而来的还有责任,我不敢逗留,漫长的旅途还未到尽头。
