《絕世天劫》總統(tǒng)演講部分 適合英語口語模仿

不知道你是否還記得98年上映的一部好萊塢大片Armageddon 《絕世天劫》，講述的是曾經(jīng)導(dǎo)致恐龍滅絕的隕石撞擊，在65000年后再次光臨地球，與上次恐龍相比幸運(yùn)的是人們擁有了改變命運(yùn)的勇氣和科技，具有諷刺意味的是，盡管其中一些科技研發(fā)的目的是為了更好，更高效的殺戮人類自身而開發(fā)的，但當(dāng)災(zāi)難臨頭之時(shí)，這樣科技又扮演起挽救人類之身的救命稻草。

I address you tonight not as the president of the United States, Not as the leader of a country, but as a citizen of humanity. We are faced with the very gravest of challenges. The bible calls this day Armageddon, the end of all things. And yet, for the first time in the history of the planet, A species has the technology to prevent its own extinction. All of you praying with us need to know. That everything that can be done to prevent this disaster is being called into service. The human thirst for excellence and knowledge, Every step up the ladder of science……Every adventurous reach into space. All of our combined modern technologies and imaginations…… Even the wars that we've fought have provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all the chaos that is our history, through all the wrongs and the discord, Through all of the pain and suffering.. Through all of our times. There is one thing that has nourished our souls and elevated our species above its origins.. And that is our courage. The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight.. On those 14 brave souls.. traveling into the heavens. And may we all, citizens the world over, See these events through. Godspeeds and good luck to you.

女士們 先生們：

今天晚上我在這里發(fā)表演講，不是以美利堅(jiān)和眾國總統(tǒng)的身份，也不是以一個(gè)國家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的身份，而是作為一個(gè)普通公民的。我們正面臨著非常艱巨的挑戰(zhàn)，圣經(jīng)上稱為世界末日，一切事物的終結(jié)。然而這是第一次在我們星球的歷史上，人類能以掌握的科學(xué)技術(shù)防止自身的毀滅，今晚請(qǐng)你們大家跟我們一起祈禱，我們必須懂得，我們所能做的，避免這場災(zāi)難就是隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備為我們?nèi)祟惖纳娑鴳?zhàn)斗。人類渴望美好的生活和對(duì)知識(shí)的追求，每一次向科學(xué)巔峰的攀登，每一次太空冒險(xiǎn)，一切現(xiàn)代科技，甚至我們經(jīng)歷的戰(zhàn)爭，已經(jīng)給我們提供了對(duì)付這場災(zāi)難的武器。我們?nèi)祟惤?jīng)歷了歷史的混沌、錯(cuò)誤和過失，經(jīng)歷了所有的苦難和不幸，經(jīng)歷了時(shí)代的變遷，只有一種東西它能夠滋養(yǎng)我們的靈魂，激勵(lì)人類超越自己，那就是我們的勇氣。全世界的命運(yùn)將寄托于今晚這14名勇士的身上，他們將登上太空，全世界都將關(guān)注這件大事。祝你們順利，祝你們成功!
