Obama's speech to Paris Hilton
这是奥巴马给Paris Hilton 的讲话,挺有趣。请大家试试翻译红字部分。谢谢!
It seems unfair, Paris, that you have neither the ability to sing nor to act. In a fairer world, at least one of these abilities would be yours. Certainly, you have a right to ask why your singing and acting are this bad. You could blames your parents for inadequate genes; you could point to an American education system in which artistic tuition has so often been sadly lacking. But is there any point in spending your future mired in these questions from the past? This could be a noble calling. It could spare you the humiliations, both big and small, consequent to your every appearance; it could spare thousands of trees as magazines confronted the lack of any news about you worth parinting. For all of us, and for the sake of the trees, I must speak frankly: Paris, the action and singing must stop.
