比尔盖茨的十大人生定律中英对比


1、Life is not fair, get used to it.
生活是不公正的；要去适应它。

2、The world won"t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.
这世界并不会在意你的自尊。这世界指望你在自我感到良好之前先要有所成绩。

3、You will not make 40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won"t be a vice president with a car phone, until you earn both.
高中刚毕业你不会一年挣4万美元。你不会成为一个公司的副总裁，并领有一部装有电话的汽车，直到你将此职位和汽车电话都挣得手。

4、If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss. He doesn"t have tenure.
如果你以为你的老师严格，等你有了老板再这样想。老板可是不任期限度的。

5、Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping; they called it opportunity.
烙牛肉饼并不有损你的尊严。你的祖父母对烙牛肉饼可有不同的定义；他们称它为机会。

6、If you mess up, it"s not your parents" fault, so don"t whine about our mistakes, learn from them.
如果你陷入窘境，那不是你父母的错误，所以不要尖声埋怨咱们的过错，要从中汲取教训。

7、Before you were born, your parents weren"t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parents" generation, try "delousing" the closet in your own room.
在你诞生之前，你的父母并非像他们当初这样乏味。他们变成今天这个样子是由于这些年来他们始终在为你付账单，给你洗衣服，听你大谈你是如何的酷。所以，假如你想毁灭你父母那一辈中的"寄生虫"来救命雨林的话，仍是先去肃清你房间衣柜里的虫子吧。

8、Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failing grades; they"ll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn"t bear the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.
你的学校兴许已经不再分优等生和劣等生，但生活却仍在作出相似辨别。在某些学校已经废止不迭格分；只有你想找到准确谜底，学校就会给你无数的机遇。这跟事实生活中的任何事件没有一点类似之处。

9、Life is not divided into semesters. You don"t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.
生涯不分学期。你并没有暑假能够休息，也没有多少位雇主乐于帮你发明自我。本人找时光做吧。

10、Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
电视并不是实在的生活。在现实生活中，人们实际上得分开咖啡屋去干自己的工作。
