中英文小故事：你有权决定自己的命运 有一次，一个推销员在纽约街头推销气球。生意稍差时，他就会放出一个气球。当气球在空中飘浮时，就有一群新顾客聚拢过来，这时他的生意就会好一阵子。他每次放的气球颜色都不同，起初是白的，然后是红的，接着是黄的。 过了一会儿，一个黑人小男孩拉了一下他的衣袖，望着他，并问了一个有趣的问题：“先生，如果你放的是黑色气球，它会飘起来吗？”气球推销员看了一眼这个小孩，以一种同情、智慧和理解的口吻说：“孩子，那是气球内装的东西使它们上升的。” 恭喜这个孩子，他碰到了一位肯给他的人生指引方向的推销员“是气球内所装的东西使它们上升。”同样，也是我们内在的东西使我们进步，关键在于你自己，因为你有权决定自己的命运！ You Have the Right to Decide Your Fate Once a salesman marketed the balloons in the street of New York. When the business was not good, he would release a balloon. When the balloon was floating in the air, a new group of customers would gather around, when his business would be good for a moment. Every time he released the balloon, it would change the color, first white, then red and finally yellow. After a while, a black boy pulled his sleeve, looked up at him and asked an interesting question, “Sir, if you release a black balloon, will it go up?" The balloon salesman looked at the boy and said in a sympathetic, wise and understanding tone, “My boy, it is the thing filled in the balloon that makes them rise.” Congratulations on this boy, for he encountered a salesman who was willing to guide his life. “It is the thing filled in the balloon that makes them rise." Similarly, it is our intrinsic things that make us progress. The key is up to yourself because you have the right to decide your fate! encounter 遭遇；遯逅 intrinsic 本质的；内在的 |
