范文1:
The scene above depicts multiple rows of students in the midst of a graduation ceremony. Their academic caps and gowns signify that they have successfully completed their courses and are preparing to enter into society. The hand in the foreground holds two small screws, implying that such students are the screws that hold society together and ensure it functions properly.
Such an analogy encourages us to consider our purpose and place in life. While many people harbor grand desires to improve and change their respective communities and countries, not a single unit could stay together without the screws that hold things in place. Success, therefore, depends on the smaller tools, or pieces, that keep structures from tumbling. Just as screws are the small yet essential objects that strengthen and sustain, we should strive to steadily support the society we live and work within. Without our earnest efforts, communities could not be so securely maintained.
The screws also promote a particular sense of perspective. Human society is vast and seemingly boundless, and it also important to be modest. Regardless of how great one's achievements may be, one is still only a single screw in the large machinery. But if you must be a screw, be a strong and shining one!
譯文:
上圖描述了在一次畢業(yè)典禮上的幾排學(xué)生。他們的學(xué)位帽和學(xué)位服證明他們已經(jīng)成功地完成了學(xué)業(yè),正準(zhǔn)備踏入社會(huì)。前景中有只手高舉著兩只小螺絲釘,這象征著這些學(xué)生也會(huì)做為社會(huì)的螺絲釘——連結(jié)起整個(gè)社會(huì)并使它正常運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)。
這個(gè)比喻促使我們思考自己的人生目標(biāo)和定位。雖然很多人心懷增進(jìn)民生、改變祖國(guó)的宏偉抱負(fù),但如果沒(méi)有“螺絲釘”來(lái)使事物各就其位,那一切將會(huì)是一盤散沙。所以,成功依賴于那些穩(wěn)固住整體結(jié)構(gòu)不動(dòng)搖的小工具、小零件。螺絲釘雖小,但卻是鞏固和支撐所不可缺少的,我們也要像它一樣努力為我們工作、生活其中的社會(huì)提供穩(wěn)固的支持。沒(méi)有我們嚴(yán)肅認(rèn)真的支持,社會(huì)就不會(huì)正常維持下去。
螺絲釘還賦予我們一種從整體出發(fā)來(lái)看問(wèn)題的意識(shí)。人類的社會(huì)生活是廣闊的,仿佛無(wú)邊無(wú)際,所以心懷謙虛是很重要的。無(wú)論一個(gè)人做出多大的成就,他也只是社會(huì)大機(jī)器中的一顆螺絲釘,而既然你必須是一顆螺絲釘,那就做一個(gè)結(jié)實(shí)而閃閃發(fā)亮的螺絲釘吧!
范文2:
As can be seen in the picture, there are two screws in a hand in front of college graduates and tutors. It is widely accepted that a screw will devote itself to whatever it is needed to do and wherever it is put. The idea that graduates are superior because they have received higher education should be discarded.
It goes without saying that every graduate has his own choices regarding his own interests and likes. It is true that graduates will often pursue careers that are not the most ideal. Even though sometimes there may be many unexpected surprises, the love to the country must be put ahead of the love for oneself. Chairman Mao said: “Even if we achieve gigantic successes in our work, there is no reason whatsoever to feel conceited and arrogant.” The graduates who have mastered a lot of knowledge should lend a hand with work wherever they are needed. A screw can be used as a metaphor, because it does not care about difficulties or payment.
Thus, graduates should devote themselves and contribute to the country wherever needed. No matter how difficult the living and working conditions are, no matter how much they are paid, and even if they have to sacrifice themselves, they should put what they have learned in school into practice to serve the country.
譯文:
從這幅照片中,我們看到在即將畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生和老師面前,一只手高高舉起兩顆螺絲釘。眾所周知,無(wú)論一顆螺絲釘被放到哪里,被用來(lái)做什么,它總是甘于奉獻(xiàn),無(wú)怨無(wú)悔。認(rèn)為大學(xué)生獲得了高等教育就高人一等的想法應(yīng)該摒棄。
毋庸諱言,每個(gè)大學(xué)生針對(duì)自己的興趣和愛(ài)好都有自己的人生選擇�?墒聦�(shí)上,好多大學(xué)生從事的并不是他們心目中理想的職業(yè)。盡管有時(shí)現(xiàn)實(shí)捉弄于人,但對(duì)祖國(guó)的愛(ài)應(yīng)高于個(gè)人的愛(ài)。毛主席曾經(jīng)說(shuō)過(guò):“盡管我們?cè)诠ぷ髦腥〉昧司薮蟮膭倮矝](méi)有理由驕傲和自大。”掌握豐富知識(shí)的大學(xué)生應(yīng)該放下架子,哪里需要就在哪里干。螺絲釘就是一種象征,因?yàn)樗炔慌吕щy,又不求索取。
因此,無(wú)論哪里需要,大學(xué)生都應(yīng)該勇于奉獻(xiàn)并對(duì)國(guó)家做出貢獻(xiàn)。無(wú)論生活和工作條件多么艱苦,不計(jì)收入高低,甚至犧牲自己的生命,他們都應(yīng)該把在校學(xué)到的知識(shí)服務(wù)于社會(huì)。
