求译文 英译汉
Years ago I worked at a factory in a small county.Every day I got up very
early and often did much extra work at night.I was so tired and exhausted.My
whole life was hopeless.Then one day I read the following article from a
magazine:
"A woman went to live with her husband in camp on the Mojave
Desert (沙漠)during the war.She simply hated the place:the heat was almost
un-bearable,125 degrees in the shade,the wind blew incessantly,and there
was sand--sand everywhere.Finally,in desperation(不顾一切地)she wrote her parents
in Ohio that she couldn't stand it another minute and was coming home.
Quickly came the reply by airmail from her father--just two lines:
'Two
men looked out from prison bars.One saw the mud,the other saw stars.'
The daughter did some real thinking,not only with the intellect (思维)but also
with her heart.She decided to stick to her post.
She made friends with the
natives,learned to love the country,and eventually wrote a book about
it.
The desert hadn't changed,but her attitude had.Because she listened
with her heart to the words her father sent,a whole new world opened up to
her."
A change of attitude could change everything.
很多年前,我在一个小国的一家工厂干活.每天早上很早就起床,而且每天晚上还要加班.当时是身心疲惫.整个人生也没什么希望.后来有一天我在一份杂志上读到了下面这篇文章.
“ 一位女士在战争期间跟丈夫到Mojave Desert (沙漠)中的军营中一起生活,她对那个地方讨厌得不得了:那里热得难以忍受,就算待在阴凉里温度都有125度,风一直刮个不停,并且,看到的只有沙子----到处是沙子.后来,她不顾一切地给在俄亥俄州的父母写信说她在那里一分钟都呆不下去了并且想回家.很快,父亲的回信就空邮到了——里边就只有两行字:‘两个犯人从监狱的铁窗向外看,一个看到了烂泥,另一个看到了星光.'
女儿真的好好想了想.不光是用脑子,还用自己的真心.她决定坚守岗位.她和当地的土著人交上了朋友,并逐渐爱上了那个国家.最后,她写了一本有关那个国家的一本书.
沙漠并没有改变,但是她的心态变了.因为她用心倾听她父亲寄给她的那些话,一个崭新的世界就展现在她的面前.“
转变心态可以改变一切.
