一批日本武士在练习跨越一条很深的峡谷。抓着一根系在峡谷两侧的绳子，十个男人和一个女人向前移动着。挪到半路上时,他们发现绳子在磨损，已经支撑不住他们所有的重量。 他们决定必须有一个人撒手，其他人才能幸免。没有人自愿撒手，最后那个女人说话了。她说为了同伴们，她愿意牺牲自己的生命，因为一直以来，女人已经习惯为丈夫和孩子牺牲自己。她的话太动人了，结束的时候，男人们纷纷鼓起掌来。 A Touching Speech A group of ninja trainees were crossing a deep canyon. The ten men and one woman were moving hand-over-hand along a rope extending across the canyon. Half way across, they noticed the rope was fraying and would not support all their weight. They decided that one person had to let go so the others could survive. No one volunteered until the woman finally spoke up. She said she was willing to sacrifice her life for her comrades because women were used to sacrificing their lives for their husbands and children. Her speech was so touching that when she finished speaking, the men started clapping. |
