今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論伊娃•庇隆,
伊娃•庇隆是一位了不起的女性,聊一聊她的一生
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
A: Oh, I wish I could be famous!
唉,我真希望自己能成為名!
B:Maybe you could become famous for another reason, besides acting. What: about Eva Perón?
除了表演這一行之外,也許在其他方面你也能出名。像伊娃•庇隆那樣怎么樣?
A: What about Eva Per6n? Or should I say "Evita", didn't Madonna play her in the movie?
伊娃•庇隆嗎?或者我應(yīng)該說(shuō)是“埃維塔”,是不是電影中麥當(dāng)娜扮演的那個(gè)?
B:Yes, she did. Evita was an actress, but she became famous for being the First Lady of Argentina. Maybe you could try another approach.
是的,就是她。埃維塔是個(gè)演員,但她出名是因?yàn)樗前⒏⒌谝环蛉?。也許你可以試試其他途徑。
A: We are complete opposites, I mean she grew up very poor with five brothers and sisters,a mother, and no father.
我們倆完全不同,我是說(shuō)她的家境貧寒,她和五個(gè)兄弟姐妹及母親生活在一起,但沒(méi)有父親。
B: Yes, I know your parents are rich and you are an only child. Did you know Eva's mother did not send her to school, but made her work in the kitchens of rich families?
是的,我知道你父母很富有,你還是獨(dú)生女。你知道伊娃的媽媽為什么不送她去學(xué)校,而是讓她在富人家的廚房干活?
A: Well, I'd never work in a kitchen. She ran away to Buenos Aires when she was 16 to become an actress. Good decision I say.
我可絕對(duì)不會(huì)干這樣的活。她16歲就離家出走去了布宜諾斯艾利斯,后來(lái)就當(dāng)了演員。我認(rèn)為這個(gè)決定做得很好。
B: After that, in 1944, Eva met a young army colonel named Juan Perón. They were married in a year and she helped him run for the presidency in 1946. They won.
之后.1944年伊娃遇到了年輕的陸軍上校胡安•庇隆。一年后,他們結(jié)了婚。1946年,她幫助他競(jìng)選總統(tǒng),最終獲勝。
A: Then Eva started her own foundation that built hundreds of schools and hospitals in Argentina. What a wonderful woman!
然后,伊娃創(chuàng)辦了自己的基金會(huì),在阿根廷建了幾百所學(xué)校和醫(yī)院。多么了不起的女人!
B: Eva was also an advocate for the education of women. She also helped the poor workers of Argentina gain a voice and respect in the country that previously exploited them.
此外,伊娃倡導(dǎo)婦女教育,還幫助阿根廷窮苦工人在曾經(jīng)剝削他們的國(guó)家里爭(zhēng)取到了發(fā)言權(quán)和應(yīng)有的尊重。
A: So you are saying that I should marry a politician? Or become a supporter of women's rights?
那你是說(shuō)我應(yīng)該嫁個(gè)政治家了?要不就做婦女權(quán)利的維護(hù)者?
B: No, not exactly. I just think you could learn a lot from her. She was considered by many to be a politician , not an actress.
不,不全是這樣。我只是想你能從伊娃身上學(xué)到很多東西。很多人認(rèn)為她是個(gè)政治家,而不是演員。
A: There had never been a female politician in Argentina before, but people believed in her Hmmm maybe I could do something like that.
阿根廷的歷史上從來(lái)就沒(méi)有女政治家,不過(guò)人們就是信任她。嗯……也許我可以那樣做做
B: Unfortunately her political career only lasted for 4 years. In 1950 she was diagnosed with cancer and died in 1952.
不幸的是,她的政治生涯只維持了4年。1950年她被查出患有癌癥。1952年去世。
B: What we can learn from the story of Evita is that fighting against fate is not impossible.At that time a woman's place was in the home, not behind a desk.
我們從埃維塔的故事所能學(xué)到的是,與命運(yùn)抗?fàn)幉⒉皇遣豢赡艿摹T诋?dāng)時(shí),婦女的位置足在家里,而不足在辦公室。
A: Maybe I could do some volunteer work? I would like to help people. What an inspiring story !
也許我能做些志愿者的工作?我愿意幫助他人。多么令人鼓舞的故事!
