1. 英譯漢:
1.1. "Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." -Winston S. Churchill
無論成敗,恒心唯勝
1.2 "In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." -Abraham Lincoln
活了多久不重要,如何活法才重要。
1.3 "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." -Nelson Mandela
每敗不餒勝於永遠不敗。
2. 漢譯英:
天下隻有兩種人。比如一串葡萄到手,一種人挑最好的先吃,另一種人把最好的留到最後吃。照例第一種人應該樂觀,因為他每吃一顆都是吃剩的葡萄裏最好的;第二種人應該悲觀,因為他每吃一顆都是吃剩的葡萄裏最壞的。不過事實卻適得其反,緣故是第二種人還有希望,第一種人隻有回憶。
There are only two kinds of people on earth. Those eat the most teasted grapes first, others save the best for the last. Naturally the former should be optimistic, as every grape eaten is the best of remaining. The latter pessimistic, as every grape eaten is the worst of remaining, but in fact it's the opposite, since the latter still have hope but the former only have memory.
