经典名人英语演讲稿21：美国即将改变（奥巴马获胜演讲）mp3
21. Change Has Come To America
21. 美国即将改变
The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term. But, America, I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there.
前路严峻而漫长，我们也许在一年甚至一届总统任期之内都无法解决这些问题。 但是美国，我从来没有像今晚这样有信心，相信我们会解决它们。
I promise you, we as a people will get there.
我向你们承诺：我们，美国人民会解决这些问题。
There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy 1 make as president. And we know the government can't solve every problem.
前面会有挫折和弯路。很多人不会完全同意我作为总统做出的政策和决定。而且我们知道政府不会解决所有问题。
But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And, above all, I will ask you to join in the work of remaking this nation, the only way it's been done in America for 221 years—block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.
但关于面对的挑战，我会始终对你们坦诚相告。我会倾听你们的声音——特别是当我们意见相左时。而最重要的是，我请你们加入到家园的重建中来，用 221年以来我们惟一的方法，美国的方法----一砖一瓦，水滴石穿。
What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot end on this autumn night.
21个月之前那个深冬开始的胜利之路，不会在今天这个秋夜止步。
This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were.
这个胜利本身并不是我们所追求的改变。这只是给了我们机会，去实现我们期待的转变。而如采我们返回原地则什么也不会发生。
It can't happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.
没有你们的参与，没有新的服务精神，奉献精神，就不会有这个改变。
So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.
让我们呼唤一种全新的爱国主义，一种投入与责任感——我们每个人都更努力地工作，不仅考虑到我们自己，还要考虑到他人。
Let us remember that, if this financial crisis taught us anything, it's that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers.
如果这次金融危机有什么教训的话，那就是实体经济受损，华尔街也不可能繁荣。
In this country, we rise or fall as one nation, as one people.
在这个国家，我们荣辱与共。
