托福备考资料拓展:奥巴马获胜演讲全文(4)

2008-11-08 
At a time when womens voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed, she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach for the ballot. Yes, we can.
When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world, she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved. Yes, we can.
二战时期,炸弹降临我们的海港上空,全世界受到独裁专制的威胁,她见证了美国一代人的伟大崛起,他们拯救了民主。是的,我们能。

She was there for the buses in Montgomery, the hoses in Birmingham, a bridge in Selma and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that "We Shall Overcome." Yes, we can.
她看到了蒙哥马利通了公共汽车、伯明翰接上了水管、塞尔马建了桥。来自亚特兰大的一位传教士告诉人们:我们能!。是的,我们能。

A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination. And this year, in this election, she touched her finger to a screen and cast her vote, because after 106 years in America, through the best of times and the darkest of hours, she knows how America can change. Yes, we can.
人类登上了月球、柏林墙倒下了,科学和想像把世界连了一块。今年,在这次选举中,安妮的手指轻触电子屏幕,投下自己的一票。她在美国生活了106年,其间有最美好的时光,也有最黑暗的时刻,她知道美国能够变革。是的,我们能。

America, we have come so far. We have seen so much. But there is so much more to do. So tonight, let us ask ourselves: If our children should live to see the next century; if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see? What progress will we have made?
美利坚,我们已经一路走来,我们已经看到了那么多变化,但我们仍有很多事情要做。今夜,让我们问自己这样一个问题:假如我们的孩子能够活到下一个世纪;假如我们的女儿有幸与安妮一样长寿,她们将会看到怎样的改变?我们又取得了怎样的进步?

This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. This is our time — to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Yes, we can.
现在,我们有了回答这个问题的机会。这是我们的时刻,我们的时代。让我们的人民重新就业,为我们的孩子打开机会的大门;恢复繁荣,促进和平;让美国梦重放光芒,再证这一重要的真理,那就是:团结一致,众志成城;一息尚存,希望就在;倘若有人嘲讽我们不能,怀疑我们能,那么我们就以这一永恒信条回应,因为它凝聚了整个民族的精神——是的,我们能!

Thank you, God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.
谢谢大家!愿主保佑你们,保佑美利坚合众国。
