"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." “如果我們等待別人或等待更好的時機,變革將無從產(chǎn)生。我們自己正是我們一直在等待的人。我們自己就是我們力求的變革?！?—— 巴拉克·奧巴馬 出自美國前總統(tǒng)巴拉克·奧巴馬的勝選演說。 適用主題：個人責任,社會變革,改變等等 We often complain about various social problems, expecting others to solve them. However, as Barack Obama recognized, “Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.” Each of us has a responsibility to address social issues. Don’t just criticize inequality - volunteer at a community center. Don’t just lament pollution - join an environmental group. The change we seek in the world begins with personal action. Through our individual contributions, society transforms little by little each day. Though we cannot do everything, we can still light a candle instead of cursing the darkness. Progress emerges gradually as we become the change we wish to see. 譯文：我們經(jīng)常抱怨各種社會問題,期待別人去解決。然而,正如巴拉克·奧巴馬所認識到的,“如果我們等待別人或等待更好的時機,變革將無從產(chǎn)生。我們自己正是我們一直在等待的人?！蔽覀兠總€人都有責任解決社會問題。不要只是批評不平等,要在社區(qū)中心做志愿者。不要只是嘆息污染問題,要加入環(huán)保組織。我們想要看到的世界變化,必須從個人行動開始。通過我們每個人的貢獻,社會每天都在悄悄變化。雖然我們不能做所有的事,但我們?nèi)匀豢梢渣c亮蠟燭,而不是去詛咒黑暗。隨著我們成為自己想看到的改變,進步會逐漸浮現(xiàn)。
