中英文小故事：逐渐走近目的地 德怀特•莫罗是20世纪美国著名的银行家和外交家 有一次，莫罗在英国的拉格比市旅行。在这期间，他离幵了车站，到附近逛街，走着走着竟然迷路了。 于是，莫罗向当地一个少年问路。 那个少年告诉他：“从这里往右拐，一直到有个杂货店的地方，然后从那里往左拐，一直走下去，你会看到有个地方是四条街交会……” 说到这里，少年想了想继续说：“你走到那里时，距离车站就不远了，然后你最好再向其他人打听一下。我现在告诉你，你可能也记不住。” 根据这位少年的指引，莫罗很快就到了四条街交会的地方，然后他再向那边的路人打听，很快就回到了车站。 这是一件小事，但对莫罗产生了巨大影响。 莫罗意识到，我们每个人的能力都是有限的，许多问题不可能一朝一夕就得到解决。 因此，我们必须一步一步行动，逐渐走近目的地。 Approach the Destination Gradually Dwight Morrow was a famous banker and diplomat of America in the 0th century. Once, Morrow travelled in Rugby, England. During this period, he left the station, strolled nearby. While walking on and on, he got lost. So he asked a local boy of the way. The boy told him, “Turn right from here until a grocery store, and then turn left from there. Go straight on and you will find a place with a four-street intersection..." With that, the boy thought for a while and went on saying, “When you get there, you are not far away from the station. Then you，d better ask someone else. Even if I tell you now, you may not remember.” According to the boy’s guide, Morrow got to the four street intersections pretty soon, and then asked a passerby there and quickly turned back to the station in no time. This was a minor matter, but it had a tremendous impact on Morrow. Morrow realized that each person’s ability is limited and many problems cannot be solved in one day. Thus, we must act step by step and approach the destination gradually. Diplomat 外交官 intersection 交叉点；十字路口 impact 影响；冲击 destination 目的地；终点 |
