英語演講三分鐘帶翻譯
拿到一份英語演講稿,最重要的是知道內容是什麼,有對照譯文那就好辦多了。下面是小編為你整理的幾篇,希望能幫到你喲。
篇一
general tso's chicken -- which, by the way, in the us naval academy is called admiral tso's chicken. i love this dish. the original name in my book was actually called the long march of general tso, and he has marched very far indeed, because he is sweet, he is fried, and he is chicken -- all things that americans love.
左宗棠雞,在美國海軍軍校被稱為左司令雞。我很喜歡這道菜。在我的書裡,這道菜實際上叫左將軍的長征,它確實在美國很受歡迎 ,因為它是甜的,油炸的,是雞肉做的——全部都是美國人的最愛。
so, you know, i realized when i was there, general tso is kind of a lot like colonel sanders in america, in that he's known for chicken and not war. but in china, this guy's actually known for war and not chicken.
我意識到左宗棠將軍有點像美國的桑德斯上校***肯德基創始人***,因為他是因雞肉而出名的而不是戰爭。而在中國,左宗棠確實是因為戰爭而不是雞肉聞名的。
so it's kind of part of the phenomenon i called spontaneous self-organization, right, where, like in ant colonies, where little decisions made by -- on the micro-level actually have a big impact on the macro-level.
這就有點像我所說的自發組織現象。就像在螞蟻群中,在微觀層面上做的小小決定會在巨集觀層面上產生巨大的影響。
and the great innovation of chicken mcnuggets was not nuggetfying them, because that's kind of an easy concept, but the trick behind chicken mcnuggets was, they were able to remove the chicken from the bone in a cost-effective manner, which is why it took so long for other people to copy them.
麥樂雞塊的發明並沒有給他們帶來切實收益,因為這個想法很簡單,但麥樂雞背後的技巧是如何用一種划算的方式來把雞肉從骨頭上剔出來。這就是為什麼過了這麼久才有人模仿他們。
we can think of chinese restaurants perhaps as linux: sort of an open source thing, right, where ideas from one person can be copied and propagated across the entire system, that there can be specialized versions of chinese food, you know, depending on the region.
我們可以把中餐館比作linux:一種開源系統。一個人的想法可以在整個系統中被複制,被普及。在不同的地區,就有特別版本的中國菜。
篇二
in the matter of courage we all have our limits. there never was a hero who did not have his bounds. i suppose it may be said of nelson and all the others whose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives when their bravery knew it had come to its limit.
i have found mine a good many times. sometimes this was expected--often it was unexpected. i know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, but you could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.
i never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. i should be at the end of the room facing all the audience. if i attempt to talk across a room i find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods i have part of the audience behind me. you ought never to have any part of the audience behind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.
i'll sit down.
中文:
在勇氣問題上,人人都有極限。從來就沒有膽大包天的英雄好漢。我想,可以說,納爾遜和所有那些被大量宣傳的勇士,一生中都有勇氣達到極限的時候。
我就多次發現自己的勇氣到了極限。有時是意料之中的——經常是出乎意料的。我認識一個人.此君不怕與響尾蛇同寢,可你無法讓他與保安剃刀共眠。
我從來就沒有勇氣在狹長房間的中央發表講話。我得站在房間的一頭,面對全體聽眾。如果我試圖站在房間中央講話,我就會不斷地轉身,這樣,就不斷有部分聽眾在我背後。你們永遠不能讓自己背後有聽眾;你們永遠鬧不清他們要幹什麼。
我得坐下了。
篇三
chinese restaurants have played an important role in american history, as a matter of fact. the cuban missile crisis was resolved in a chinese restaurant called yenching palace in washington, d.c., which unfortunately is closed now, and about to be turned into walgreen's. and the house that john wilkes booth planned the assassination of abraham lincoln is actually also now a chinese restaurant called wok 'n roll, on h street in washington.
事實上,中國餐館在美國曆史上發揮了很重要的作用。古巴導彈危機是在華盛頓一家名叫“燕京館”的中餐館裡解決的。很不幸,這家餐館現在關門了,即將被改建成沃爾格林連鎖藥店。而約翰·威爾克斯·布斯刺殺林肯總統的那所房子現在也成了一家中餐館,就是位於華盛頓的“鍋和卷”。
and if you think about it, a lot of the foods that you think of or we think of or americans think of as chinese food are barely recognizable to chinese, for example: beef with broccoli, egg rolls, general tso's chicken, fortune cookies, chop suey, the take-out boxes.
如果你仔細想想,就會發現很多你們所認為或我們所認為,或是美國人所認為的中國食物,中國人並不認識。比如西蘭花牛肉、蛋卷、左宗棠雞、幸運餅乾、雜碎、外賣盒子。
so, the interesting question is, how do you go from fortune cookies being something that is japanese to being something that is chinese? well, the short answer is, we locked up all the japanese during world war ii, including those that made fortune cookies, so that's the time when the chinese moved in, kind of saw a market opportunity and took over.
所以有趣的是,幸運餅乾是怎麼從日本的東西變成中國的東西的呢?簡單地說,我們在二戰時扣押了所以的日本人,包括那些做幸運餅乾的。這時候,中國人來了,看到了商機,自然就據為己有了。
