Ideals
Everyone has his ideals. A businessman wishes to make greater profit; a farmer expects good harvests; a student tries to learn more and better.
However, one should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not. If it is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization. Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary. And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.
My ideal is to become a doctor. It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid profession, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving people’s lives. To realize my ideal I have concentrated on laboratory work to develop the analytical skills necessary to become a qualified doctor. I'm sure I will persevere in this pursuit.
【譯文賞析】
理想
人人都有理想。商人的理想是賺取更大的利潤;農民希望獲得更大的豐收;學生則爭取學得更多、更好。每個人都為實現理想多多少少付出了努力。
然而,人們應該想想自己的`理想是否建立在紮實的基礎上。如果是,那麼人們就必須為實現理想而做出計劃、辛勤工作。努力、技巧和恆心都是必備要素。人們還常常需要從別人身上獲得幫助,包括各種形式的建議和支援。
我的理想是成為一名醫生。醫師是一個薪水不錯的職業,而我則視之為一個治病救人的高尚職業。為了實現我的理想,我必須集中精力於實驗室的工作,從而培養作為一名合格醫師所必備的分析技巧。若能持之以恆,我相信我能實現自己的理想。
