College education is indispensable to the future development of the young people, so it is of vital importance. 不能否認,很多沒有上過大學的人也取得了事業(yè)上的成功,但是,如果問問他們,他們會說:如果當時有條件,他們也會選擇上大學的,因為上大學與成功是不矛盾的。
There is no denying that many people who did not go to college have achieved great success.
But if you ask them, they will say that if they had had the chance, they would also have chosen to go to college, for college education never contradicts success. 雖然有很多沒有讀過大學的人取得了事業(yè)上的巨大成功,但同樣有很多人,不,是的、讀過大學的人,取得了更大的成功。
While it is true that many people who did not go to college have achieved great success, it is also true that many people, no, more people who had received college education have made even greater success. 讀大學不是成功的保障,但不讀大學會成為一種遺憾。
Going to college can not guarantee success, but not going to college would be a big regret. 大學教育可以豐富我們的知識,但更重要的是它為我們將來走向社會、服務社會做好了初級的準備。
College education can help enrich our knowledge, but more important, it prepares us, though preliminarily, for entering the society and serving the society in the future.
6.認為大學教育可以解決一切問題和認為大學教育沒有多大意義的觀點同樣都是荒謬的。
Both views that college education can be a solution to everything and that going to college is meaningless are incorrect.
7.眾所周知,世界上講漢語的人數(shù)和講英語的人數(shù)旗鼓相當,但是英語分布的地理區(qū)域則比漢語要廣闊得多。
As is known to all, the Chinese-speaking population is very close to the English-speaking population in the world, but English has a much broader scope than Chinese in terms of geological distribution.
8.作為影響力最大的一門語言,英語早已牢固確立了其在科技、娛樂、跨文化交流領域的霸主地位。
As the most influential language in the world, English has long established its dominant place in such fields as science and technology, entertainment and cross-cultural communication.
9.漢語的影響力基本局限在中國和東南亞一帶,但隨著中國經(jīng)濟的騰飛,越來越多的外國人已經(jīng)開始學習這門古老的語言。
The influence of Chinese is mainly confined to China and Southeast Asian countries, but along with the economic takeoff of China, an increasing number of foreigners have been learning this ancient language.
10.由此可見,一個國家的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展可以帶動其語言的傳播,而語言的傳播又會對這個國家的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展產(chǎn)生積極的促動作用。
Obviously, the economic development of a country can promote the spread of its language which in turn enhances its economic development.
11.我們希望有的國外人士學習漢語,從而加深對中國、對中國人民和中國文化的了解,這樣可以避免很多的誤解。
We would like to have more people from other countries study Chinese, thus increasing their understanding of China, of the Chinese people and of Chinese culture, which could help avoid many misunderstandings.
12.眾所周知,在影響力方面,恐怕沒有哪一門語言能夠與英語相提并論的,而且,越來越多的人意識到了學好英語的重要性。
As is known to all, English is unparalleled by any other languages in terms of influence. Besides, an increasing number of people are aware of the importance of learning English.
13.在此背景下,英語實際上已經(jīng)成為一門國際性語言,因此,沒有必要再費麻煩去創(chuàng)設另外一門全球性的語言了。
In this context, English has, in fact, already become a global language; thereby it’s quite unnecessary to take the trouble to create another world language.
