勇气

四级On Bravery
「论勇敢」


　　We often do not take much notice of the people around us who on public service jobs. These people are train station workers, airline stewardess, firemen, policemen, bus drivers, taxi drivers and soldiers. Only during some accident these people are then the first ones to come to our aid and sometimes at the risk of their own lives. Recently, I saw a big fire in a ten-story apartment house where firemen worked under great danger. Luckily in this case no one was hurt. Each of us have within us the essence of bravery available on our everyday job, or just going to school, or at home. Soldiers are called to show bravery in defending their country from aggression. Sometimes during a national disaster such as an earthquake or typhoon soldiers are called to help show bravery and strength.
我们通常不带太多的通知我们周围的人们在公共服务工作的人。这些人是火车站的工人,航空小姐,消防员、警察、汽车司机、出租车司机和士兵。这些人只有在某些事故后第一个来帮助我们,有时在自己生活的风险。最近,我看到一堆大火在ten-story公寓在消防队员在巨大的危险之中。幸运的是,在这种情况下没有人受伤。我们每个人都已经在我们的本质可在我们的日常工作,勇敢,或者仅仅是去学校,或在家。士兵被称为指勇敢保卫他们的国家不受侵袭。有时在国家的灾难诸如地震或台风士兵被召唤去帮助表明勇气和力量。

Courage        http://www.51test.net/xzfy/xw/            by J.F.Kennidy


The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must----in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures----and that is the basis of all human morality.
To be courageous…requires no exceptional qualifications, no magic formula, no special combination of time, place and circumstance. It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all. Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage. In whatever arena of life one may meet the challenge of courage, whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience----the loss of his friends, his fortune, his contentment, even the esteem of his fellow men----each man must decide for himself the course he will follow. The stories of past courage can define that ingredient----they can teach, they can offer hope, they can provide inspiration. But they cannot supply courage itself. For this each man must look into his own soul. 


勇气    生活之中的勇气，通常不会像千钧一发时的勇气那样充满戏剧性；但他人不失为是一个胜利与悲剧的壮观组合。一个人将个人得失，障碍、危险还有压力抛在脑后，只是做他必须做的，而这便是人类一切道德的基础。
勇敢，不需要突出的品质，不需要秘诀，不需要天时地利，每个人或早或晚都有机会。政治不过是对勇气进行特别考验的一个竞技场而已，在人生的每一个竞技场上勇气都会前来挑战。如果你跟随你的良心，那么任何东西都可能被牺牲：朋友，财产，满足，甚至是别人对你的尊重。走哪条路只能由自己来决定。前人的故事可以告诉你什么叫勇敢。他们能够教你，能够给你希望和灵感，但不能给你真正的勇气，要得到它你必须要发掘自己的灵魂。
