讀雙語故事,看百味人生。閱讀是一生的功課,無論順境逆境,我們總能在文字里找到共鳴。以下是小編整理的永不放棄/Never, Never Give Up的內(nèi)容,讀一下吧,也許恰好是你喜歡的那一篇。
We often hear people say, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in themselves will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.
One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel discouraged and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.

【參考譯文】
我們常聽到人們說:“永遠不要放棄?!边@句話能夠鼓勵別人,也能表示自己的決心。一個相信自己的人,不管經(jīng)歷多少次失敗,都會不斷試著要達到目標。我認為,有成功的決心是一個人應該具有的重要特質(zhì)。因此,我認為我們應該永不放棄。
其中一個理由是,如果我們太輕易放棄,就幾乎無法完成任何事。我們第一次嘗試新事物會失敗,這是很平常的事,所以我們不應感到氣餒,而應該要再試一次。另外,如果我們總是一失敗就放棄,就無法培養(yǎng)新技能并且也不能不斷成長。我們應該永不放棄的另一個原因是,只有再努力一次才能從錯誤中學習。如果我們不再試一次,那么我們所學到的教訓就白白浪費了。最后,我們應該永不放棄,因為當我們努力達到目標的時候,我們就會培養(yǎng)出自信,而這種自信將有助于我們在生活的其他領域中獲得成功。如果我們從不挑戰(zhàn)自我,我們就會開始懷疑自己的能力。
簡言之,當我們努力追求目標時,永不放棄是很重要的。不管最后有沒有成功,我們都會學到一些東西,而我們所學到的東西,將會使自己成為一個更好、更有自信的人。而且,如果放棄的話,我們就沒有機會完成目標,但是,如果我們不斷嘗試,我們總有一天將會取得成功。
【人生啟迪】
永遠不要放棄,一個人是這樣,一個人生也是這樣。人生既然選擇了奮斗,選擇了勇往直前,就永遠不應放棄。奮斗是艱苦的,前行是艱辛的,但是只要永遠不放棄,就永遠有追求、有信念、有自信,這樣成功離我們也就不遠了。當我們想要放棄的時候,不妨想想,也許陽光就在轉(zhuǎn)彎的不遠處,如果此刻放棄就永遠觸不到成功的希望。記住許三多的那句經(jīng)典語錄——不拋棄,不放棄。
