Unit2 The Joy of Labor
第二课 劳动之乐
Wise men of ancient times and successful men of today have told us that labor is sweet.
古时的贤能和今天的胜利者都告诉我们劳动是甜美的。
Its reward is not material gain but what one becomes by it.
劳动的酬劳不是物量的获得而是人们藉由劳动所到达的成就。
Work does much more for us than just giving us aliving;
工做所赐与我们的岂行是混口饭食;
it gives us our life and the reason for living.
它付与我们生命以及活下往的理由。
The real joys of life come from doing something and doing it well.
人生实正的乐趣就在于能把所做的事做好。
All of us hope for success, but it is illusive and hard to keep.
我们都期看胜利，但胜利却是虚幻且难以庇护的。
It nearly always slips away from one like sand through the fingers, like water through a leaky pail, unless it is held tight by hard work, day by day，night by night, year in year out.
除非你能日日、夜夜、年复一年地勤奋紧守胜利，不然它几乎总会从你身边溜走，就如沙粒从指间滑落，或像水从漏桶流失一样。
Everyone who fears failure should work harder and harder with a faithful heart as long as he lasts.
但凡恐惧失败的人应该在有生之年，一心一意地愈加勤奋发奋才是。
