双语全文

Thank you all.Thank you so much.You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.谢谢各位，谢谢。真是令人难以置信，八年就这样过去了。八年前，我第一次站在这个大会上告诉诸位，为什么我的丈夫应该成为总统。

Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House? 大家还记得吗，我向你们介绍他的品质与信念，说着他的正派与慈悲，以及他在白宫为国操劳的每一天向我们展现的所有优点。

I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world.And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington.我那时还向各位说起我们的女儿，说起她们是我们宝贝的心头肉，是我们眼里世界的中心。在白宫度过的这段时光里，我们欢欣地看着她们从热情活泼的小女孩长大为举止沉稳的年轻女性，这是一趟自我们抵达华盛顿之时就已开始的成长旅程。

When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns.And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done? 我永远不会忘记她们第一天出发去新学校的场景。那个冬天的早晨，我目送我们7岁和10岁的女儿钻进黑色的SUV车里，陪着她们的全是持枪的壮汉。我看着她们把小脸贴在车窗上往外张望，那时候我想到的唯一一件事是：我们这是做错了什么？

See, because at that moment I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them.对，就是在那一刻，我意识到，在白宫的日子将会对她们的成长蜕变起到至关重要的影响。我们若能好好地应对这段经历，这段日子将会成就她们；如果不能，这些经历则会把她们带入歧途。

That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight, how we urge them to ignore those who question their father’s citizenship or faith.How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country.How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level.No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high.这就是我和巴拉克每一天所思考的问题。我们努力地引导我们的孩子，保护她们不受这聚光灯之下的不寻常生活的伤害，鼓励她们不去在意别人对她们的爸爸的国籍或信念的质疑。我们坚持让她们相信，电视上那些公共人物说出来的满带恨意的话并不能代表这个国家真正的精神。我们向她们解释，有些人可能残忍而霸道，但这不意味着你可以堕落到与他们一样。绝不可以，我们的信条是，当别人往道德的低处走时，我们要继续向高处前行。

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us.We as parents are their most important role models.And let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls, but the children across this country, kids who tell us I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school.Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope and he wondered, is my hair like yours? 我们知道，父母的言行举止时时刻刻都被孩子们所关注，我们是她们最重要的榜样。我想告诉各位，巴拉克和我一直以同样的心态对待总统与第一夫人的工作。因为我们深知，我们所说的话，我们所做的事，不仅仅被自家孩子所关注，更同时被这个国家所有的孩子听到和看到。这些孩子可能会对我说，“我在电视上看过你”或是“我在一份作业里写了你”，也可能就像那个抬头带着希望看着我丈夫的黑人小男孩，心里充满好奇，“我的头发和你的是一样的吗？” And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls that is what we’re deciding, not Democrat or Republican, not left or right.No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.毫无疑问，今年11月我们去投票时，要做的就是这样一个决定，不是选择民主党或共和党，也不管左翼右翼之分。就同每一场选举一样，这场选举决定的是由谁来掌握一个大权，由谁来影响塑造孩子们生命中接下来的四年或六年。

And I am here tonight because in this election there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.今晚，我站在这里，因为在这场选举中，只有一个人,让我放心地将这个责任交付；只有一个人，我相信真正有能力胜任美国总统一职。这个人就是我们的朋友，希拉里•克林顿。That’s right.就是如此。

See, I trust Hillary to lead this country because I’ve seen her lifelong devotion to our nation’s children, not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion, kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they’ll ever afford college, kids whose parents don’t speak a word of English, but dream of a better life, kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be.我坚信希拉里能够领导这个国家，因为我见证了她以一生奉献予这个国家的孩子们，不仅仅是她那被栽培得近乎完美的女儿，更包括每一个需要保护的孩子——保护每一个需要走长长的路上学的孩子不受到犯罪团伙的伤害，帮助那些困惑于为何自己负担不起大学费用的孩子、那些自己的父母并不懂得说一句英语但自身梦想过上更好生活的孩子、那些等待着我们去决定他们的未来的孩子。

You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives, advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children’s health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the Senate.如你们所见，希拉里在几十年间一直任劳任怨地工作，为的是真正地使孩子们的生活有所不同。当她是个年轻律师时，她就为残障儿童的权益发声；后来她成了第一夫人，她为孩子们的医疗保障奔忙；在国务卿任上，她依然在为孩子们争取高质量的保育环境。

And when she didn’t win the nomination eight years ago, she didn’t get angry or disillusioned.Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments.So she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.并且，八年前她竞选失利之后，她并不恼怒，也没有灰心丧气。希拉里没有打包走人，因为作为一个真正的公共利益服务者，她懂得这份事业比个人的欲望与失望重要得多。所以，她又挺身而出，以国务卿的身份为我们的国家服务，为孩子们的安全走遍全球。

And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs.But here’s the thing.What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure.She never takes the easy way out.And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.很多时候希拉里都可以抱怨她的工作有多难，为人民付出的代价有多大，自己的外貌或言语甚至笑容时刻被人指责有多心累。可是，我最佩服她的一点，就是无论面对多大的压力，她都不会垮掉，也从来不会偷懒。在她的世界里，永无放弃可言。

And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.所以，当我想象一个能为我的女儿和所有孩子带来美好和希望的美国总统的样子，这就是我想要的。

I want someone with the proven strength to persevere, someone who knows this job and takes it seriously, someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white and cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.我想要一个真正有能力坚持下去的人，一个了解这份工作、严肃对待它的人，一个懂得总统面对的问题不是非黑即白，也不能短短归结为140个字的人。

Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can’t make snap decisions.You can’t have a thin skin or a tendency to lash out.You need to be steady and measured and well-informed.因为当核武器的发射密码就在你指尖，并且手握着整个国家军队的时候，你不可以做出轻率的决定。你不能死要面子，也不能一戳就发火。你必须运筹帷幄、深思熟虑、见识广博。

I want a president with a record of public service, someone whose life’s work shows our children that we don’t chase fame and fortune for ourselves, we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.我心目中的总统，要有从事公众服务的纪录，用毕生工作向孩子们证明，我们奋斗的目标不是追名逐利，而是让每个人都有成功的机会。

And we give back even when we’re struggling ourselves because we know that there is always someone worse off.And there but for the grace of God go I.就算当我们苦苦挣扎的时候，也要回报这个社会，因为总有人的生活比你还艰难。我们没吃他们的苦，是因为上帝眷顾。

I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters, a president who truly believes in the vision that our Founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story.我想要的总统，应当告诉孩子们，我们国家的每一个人都很重要。他要深信国父们数百年前的理念，人人生而平等，每一个人都是伟大美国历史珍视的一部分。

And when crisis hits, we don’t turn against each other.No, we listen to each other, we lean on each other, because we are always stronger together.当危机到来时，我们绝不分崩离析。我们互相倾听，相互扶持，因为团结才会让我们更加强大。

And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be.And that’s why in this election I’m with her.今晚我在这里就是想告诉大家，希拉里就会是这样一位总统。这就是为什么在这场大选中，我站在她的一边。

You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only, it’s about leaving something better for our kids.That’s how we’ve always moved this country forward, by all of us coming together on behalf of our children, folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village.她懂得作为一个总统，最主要的任务就是一件事，要为孩子们争取更美好的未来。为了孩子而团结起来，我们的国家就是这样不断进步的。不论是志愿做学生队教练的人，还是去当主日学的教师，他们都明白，培养下一代，需要整个国家的力量。

Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty, police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe.People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter in that club.不同肤色和信仰的英雄们穿上制服，冒着生命危险将自由的福祉传承下去。在达拉斯，警察和抗议者们都在拼尽全力地呼吁保护孩子们的安全。在奥兰多，人们排着队献血，因为他们知道，那晚在酒吧的也可能就是他们的孩子。

Leaders like Tim Kaine who show our kids what decency and devotion look like.Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her.蒂姆•凯恩这样的领袖让孩子们懂得了什么是正直与奉献。希拉里这样的领袖拥有的勇气和魅力，让她一直没有放弃，不断地冲击限制女性发展的那道最高最艰难的玻璃顶，直到她终于将其击碎，并带着我们一同提升。

That is the story of this country, the story that has brought me to this stage tonight, the story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women playing with their dogs on the White House lawn.这就是我们国家的故事，是这个故事让我今天站在这里。在这个故事中，曾有世世代代的人遭受着压迫和束缚，被奴役的耻辱和被隔离的痛苦。但是他们始终怀揣着希望，不息地抗争，所以今天的我才能每天在由奴隶建造的白宫里醒来，看着我的女儿们，两个美丽聪敏的黑皮肤少女，与狗狗们在白宫的草坪上嬉戏。

And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.因为希拉里，我的女儿，和所有的孩子们，觉得女人可以当美国总统，这是理所应当的事。

So, look, so don’t let anyone ever tell you that this country isn’t great, that somehow we need to make it great again.Because this right now is the greatest country on earth!所以，别再听别人说我们的国家不够好，我们要让她变好之类的话。因为此时此刻，这就是世界上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader who is worthy of my girls’ promise and all our kids’ promise, a leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.我的两个女儿就要去闯荡世界了，我希望能有一个领袖能够配得上这个真相，值得托付我的女儿以及所有孩子们的前途，能用爱与希望，和我们寄予孩子的无限期望来指导其每一天。

So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best.We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical.No, hear me.Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.所以在这次选举中，我们不能坐视着希望最后的结果是最好的，我们承受不起疲倦、沮丧或愤世嫉俗的代价。听我说，从现在起到十一月份，我们要像8年前或4年前那样，为之付出行动。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America!我们要挨家挨户敲门，让更多的人来投票。我们要用尽我们对这个国家的每一丝热情、每一份力量，和每一点爱，来推选希拉里•克林顿成为美利坚合众国的总统！

So let’s get to work.Thank you all and God bless.让我们行动起来吧。谢谢大家，上帝保佑。

So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best.We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical.No, hear me.Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.所以在这次选举中，我们不能坐视着希望最后的结果是最好的，我们承受不起疲倦、沮丧或愤世嫉俗的代价。听我说，从现在起到十一月份，我们要像8年前或4年前那样，为之付出行动。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America!我们要挨家挨户敲门，让更多的人来投票。我们要用尽我们对这个国家的每一丝热情、每一份力量，和每一点爱，来推选希拉里•克林顿成为美利坚合众国的总统！

So let’s get to work.Thank you all and God bless.让我们行动起来吧。谢谢大家，上帝保佑。

第三篇：2016米歇尔助选演讲拯救希拉里

2016米歇尔助选演讲拯救希拉里

Thank you all, thank you so much.It is hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.谢谢大家，非常感谢。我第一次在这个大会发言时，说的是为什么我的丈夫将成为总统，很难相信，这已是八年前的事了。

Remember how I told you about his character and his conviction? His decency and grace? The traits we have seen every day as he has served our country in the White House.还记得我夸他的人格和信仰吗？我说他正派、优雅，现在我们每天都看他在白宫为国尽瘁。

I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world, and during our time in the White House we have had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women.我还说到我们的女儿，我们的心肝宝贝，我们世界的中心。我们在白宫的日子中，看着她们从活泼的小女孩长成亭亭的大姑娘。

A journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington when they set off for their first day at their new school.I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those men with guns.And with all their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, 'What have we done?'

我们住进白宫后，她们在新学校开始了新的旅程。我不会忘记那个冬天的早晨，我看着我们的女儿，一个7岁，一个10岁，被塞进黑色的SUV，护送的人荷枪实弹。她们的小脸蛋贴在窗户上，我心里想得是“我们到底做了些什么？”

At that moment, I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation of who they would become.And how well we manage this experience could truly make or break them.那一刻，我意识到我们在白宫的岁月将成为她们未来人生的基石。我们怎样应对这种经历，会成就她们，也会毁掉她们。

That is what Barack and I think about every day as he tried to guide and protect our girls from the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight.How we urged them to ignore those who question their father's citizenship or faith.这也是为什么奥巴马和我每天都在想这件事，他努力引导她们应对并尽量让她们避免聚光灯下的不凡生活所带来的挑战，我们督促她们不要在意那些对父亲的公民权或信仰的质疑。

How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country.How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don't stoop to their level.Our motto is, when they go low, we go high.我们坚决地告诉她们公众人物在电视上充满仇恨的语言不代表这个国家的真精神。我们解释说，有人残酷无情、盛气凌人，你不能和他们在一个水平上。我们的格言是，他们没品味，我们有格调。

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us.We as parents are the most important role-model.我们说每句话，做每件事，知道孩子们都在看着。作为父母，我们是最重要的榜样。

Let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls but the children across this country.Kids who say, “I saw you on TV.” 我来告诉大家，奥巴马和我作为总统和第一夫人也用同样的方式工作，因为我们知道我们的言行之重，不仅对女儿而言如此，对全国的孩子也是一样。孩子们说：“我在电视上看到你了”。

Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope, and he wondered, 'Is my hair like yours?' Make no mistake about it, this November, when we get to the polls, that is what we are deciding.Not Democrat or Republican, not left or right.In this election, and every election, it is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.小黑孩儿仰望着我的丈夫，双眼张大，充满希望，他想知道：“我的头发和你的一样吗？”别弄错，今年11月，当我们投票时，这才是我们要决定的——不是民主党或共和党，也并非左翼、右翼。这一次选举以及每一次选举，都关乎我们将运用这种权力在下一个四年或八年中塑造我们的孩子。

I am you tonight because in this election, there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.今晚我就是你们大家中的一员，因为这次大选中，我只信任一个人，我认为只有她有资格成为美国总统，那就是我们的朋友希拉里·克林顿。

I trust Hillary to lead this country because I have seen her lifelong devotion to our nation's children.Not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion: kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs.Kids who wonder how they will ever afford college.Kids whose parents don't speak a word of English, but dream of a better life;who look to us to dream of what they can be.我信任由希拉里领导这个国家，因为我看她一生奉献给我们国家的孩子。她自己的女儿，抚养出类拔萃，不仅如此，所有孩子都需要支持：那些上学路远却要远离坏人的孩子；想上得起大学的孩子；那些不会说英语却梦想着更好生活的孩子；指望着我们来拥有梦想的孩子。

Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless work to actually make a difference in their lives.Advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children's health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the senate.几十年来，希拉里不懈努力，让他们的生活得到改善。年轻时作为律师，她为有残疾的孩子出头，做第一夫人时为孩子们的健康呼走，做参议员时主张更好关爱孩子。

And when she did not win the nomination eight years ago, she did not get angry or disillusioned.Hillary did not pack up and go home because...Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own disappointment.八年前没有获得提名，她没有发怒，也没有幻灭。希拉里没有收拾包袱打道回府，因为她知道有一件事比她自己的失望之情更加重要。

She proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.她挺身而出，以国务卿的身份再次为我们国家服务，走遍全球，保障我们的孩子安全。

There were moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being [torn] apart for how she looked, or how she talked, or even how she laughed.很多时候，希拉里本该知道这个工作太艰难，公共服务的代价太高，自己的形象、说话方式甚至笑的方式都引发争吵，这让她疲惫不堪。

But here's the thing: What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure.She never takes the easy way out.And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.可事实上，我最敬佩希拉里的地方在于她从未屈服于压力，也从不取巧，在生活中从不退缩。

And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that is what I want.I want someone with the proven strength to persevere.Somebody who knows this job and takes it seriously.Somebody who understands that the issues of our nation are not black or white.It cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.想想我的女儿们和所有我们的孩子，她就是我想要的总统。我需要那个被证明不屈不挠的人；那个知道该怎么做，并认真去做的人；那个了解我们的国家事务而不是主张非黑即白的人。国家大事不是写一条140字的推文就能解决的。

Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can't make snap decisions.You can't have thin skin or a tendency to lash out.You need to be steady and measured and well informed.因为你指尖上有核发射密码，军队听你指挥，你不能一拍脑袋就做出决定。你不能面子薄，也不能只会批判。你需要稳健、有节、见多识广。

I want a president with a record of public service.Someone whose life's work shows our children that we don't chase fame and fortune for ourselves;we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.我们需要一个有公共服务经历的总统，其工作向我们的孩子表明，我们不因自己而追名逐利，我们的奋斗让每个人都有机会成功。

A president that truly believes that our founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story.When crisis hits, we don't turn against each other, we listen to each other.We lean on each other.We are always stronger together.我们需要的总统是真心相信我们的国父在多年前提出的准则，即所有人生来平等，每个人都是伟大美国故事中最可爱的部分。危机来临，我们不相互攻讦，我们彼此倾听，我们互相学习，我们在一起总会更加强大。

I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president Hillary Clinton will be and that is why in this election, I'm with her.今晚我站在这里，因为我知道希拉里总统就是这样的。正因为如此，在这次大选中，我支持她。

You see, Hillary understands that the presidency is about one thing and one thing only.It is about leaving something better for our kids.That is how we have always moved this country forward by all of us coming together on behalf of our children.你瞧，希拉里明白当总统该干的事，且只该干这件事，那就是给我们的孩子留下更美好的遗产。我们就是这样以孩子的名义，共同推动着国家的进步。

Volunteering to coach the team, teach the Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village.Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to pass on those blessings of liberty;police officers and protesters in Dallas who all that really want to keep our children safe;people who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, or their daughter in the club.志愿训练队伍，在主日学校教书，因为他们知道这值得花功夫。无论肤色和信仰，穿制服的英雄们冒着生命危险将这些自由的祝福传递下去。达拉斯的警员和抗议者真心希望保护我们孩子们的安全。那些在奥兰多献血的人排起长队，因为那也可能是他们的儿子或女儿。

Leaders like Tim Kaine, who show our kids what decency and devotion look like.Leaders like Hillary Clinton, who have the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in the highest and hardest glass ceiling until they finally break through, lifting all of us along with her.像蒂姆·凯恩这样的领导人，让我们的孩子们知道什么是正直与奉献；像希拉里这样的领导人，有勇气、有雅量再次归来，打碎最高、最艰难的天花板，直到最终取得突破，让所有人都和她一起提升。

That is the story of this country.The story that has brought me to the stage tonight.The story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, who kept on striving, and hoping, and doing what needed to be done.这才是我们国家的故事，这个故事今晚把我带上讲台。这是一代代人的故事，他们曾遭受绳索的捆扎、为奴的耻辱、受隔离的伤痛，他们却不断奋斗，充满希望，完成使命。

So that today, I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.And I watch my daughters — two beautiful intelligent black young women — play with the dog on the White House lawn.如今，我每天早上都从一所奴隶修建的房屋中醒来，我看着我的女儿，两个漂亮聪慧的黑人姑娘在白宫草坪上逗狗。

And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all of our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.因为希拉里，我的女儿和所有人的儿女们现在都理所当然地认为一个女人可以做合众国总统。

Don't let anyone ever tell you that this country is not great.That somehow we need to make it great again.Because this right now is the greatest country on Earth.别让人对你说这个国家不再伟大了，现在我们需要想办法让她再次伟大，因为现在她就是地球上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters set out on the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader worthy of my girls' promise and all of our kids' promise.A leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.我的女儿们开始闯世界了，我需要一个配得上这一事实的领袖，配得上我对女儿的承诺和都所有孩子们承诺的领袖。这个领袖每天被爱和希望引领，被我们为孩子们设想的难以置信的伟大梦想所引领。

In this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best, we cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical.Hear me: Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.这次大选，我们不能无所作为，希望一切都会完美，我们经受不起倦怠、泄气或玩世不恭。听我说：从现在到11月，我们要像八年前和四年前一样振作。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of passion into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America.Let's get to work.我们需要挨家挨户地敲门，我们需要获得每一张选票，我们需要把最后一分热情注入选举希拉里·克林顿为美利坚合众国总统的事业中来。让我们开始行动吧。

Thank you all and God bless.谢谢，上帝保佑。

第四篇：2016-7米歇尔发表演讲拯救希拉里(中英双语全文)

米歇尔发表演讲“拯救”希拉里(全文)

米歇尔在民主党全国代表大会（Democratic National Convention, DNC）上演讲，为希拉里背书，激昂慷慨、气场十足、极富感染力。演讲从她自己的两个女儿出发，始终围绕人性最柔软的话题，孩子。

她告诉所有的听众：

The president is about one thing and one thing only, it’s about leaving something better for our kids.一个总统，最主要的任务就是一件事，要为孩子们争取更美好的未来。

米歇尔只字未提特朗普，却给了一个漂亮的回击：

她说这个国家需要的不是仇恨与猜忌，而是爱、平等与希望—— “When they go low, we go high.”

当别人往道德的低处走时，我们要继续向高处前行。

这场演讲一结束，学习“如何形容一场演讲很棒”的一大波资源就上线了。

外媒是这样措辞的：

Michelle Obama could be Hillary Clinton's ace in the hole 米歇尔或成希拉里的最后王牌

The First Lady is a powerful surrogate to Clinton 米歇尔是希拉里强有力的代言人 Michelle united a divided hall 米歇尔把一个分裂的大堂团结在一起

Michelle’s speech brought down the DNC house

米歇尔的演讲博得满堂喝彩（快把民主党全国代表大会的屋顶给掀了）

Michelle Obama’s Speech of a Lifetime Turns Convention Around for Hillary Clinton 米歇尔这场终身难遇的演讲把整个大会的人们都团结到了希拉里身旁

再看看这些用词： stirring 震撼人心的 emotional 情感饱满的 incredible 不可思议的 stunning 令人惊叹的 epic 史诗般的 blockbuster 轰动的

speech for ages 千载难逢的演讲

showstopper 因太精彩而屡次被掌声打断的演讲

她的这场演讲让群众激动万分（electrifies crowd），全场都坐不住了（get the crowd on their feet），整个大会的人都被感动得热泪盈眶（move the Democratic convention to tears）。

这就是演讲的力量，想学public speech的同学，一定不要错过。好了，我们现在就来领略一下号称民主党大会上“史上最佳第一夫人演讲”： 双语全文

Thank you all.Thank you so much.You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.谢谢各位，谢谢。真是令人难以置信，八年就这样过去了。八年前，我第一次站在这个大会上告诉诸位，为什么我的丈夫应该成为总统。

Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House?

大家还记得吗，我向你们介绍他的品质与信念，说着他的正派与慈悲，以及他在白宫为国操劳的每一天向我们展现的所有优点。I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world.And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington.我那时还向各位说起我们的女儿，说起她们是我们宝贝的心头肉，是我们眼里世界的中心。在白宫度过的这段时光里，我们欢欣地看着 她们从热情活泼的小女孩长大为举止沉稳的年轻女性，这是一趟自我们抵达华盛顿之时就已开始的成长旅程。

When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns.And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done? 我永远不会忘记她们第一天出发去新学校的场景。那个冬天的早晨，我目送我们7岁和10岁的女儿钻进黑色的SUV车里，陪着她们的全是持枪的壮汉。我看着她们把小脸贴在车窗上往外张望，那时候我想到的唯一一件事是：我们这是做错了什么？

See, because at that moment I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them.对，就是在那一刻，我意识到，在白宫的日子将会对她们的成长蜕变起到至关重要的影响。我们若能好好地应对这段经历，这段日子将会成就她们；如果不能，这些经历则会把她们带入歧途。That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight, how we urge them to ignore those who question their father’s citizenship or faith.How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country.How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level.No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high.这就是我和巴拉克每一天所思考的问题。我们努力地引导我们的孩子，保护她们不受这聚光灯之下的不寻常生活的伤害，鼓励她们不去在意别人对她们的爸爸的国籍或信念的质疑。我们坚持让她们相信，电视上那些公共人物说出来的满带恨意的话并不能代表这个国家真正的精神。我们向她们解释，有些人可能残忍而霸道，但这不意味着你可以堕落到与他们一样。绝不可以，我们的信条是，当别人往道德的低处走时，我们要继续向高处前行。

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us.We as parents are their most important role models.And let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls, but the children across this country, kids who tell us I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school.Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope and he wondered, is my hair like yours? 我们知道，父母的言行举止时时刻刻都被孩子们所关注，我们是她们最重要的榜样。我想告诉各位，巴拉克和我一直以同样的心态对 待总统与第一夫人的工作。因为我们深知，我们所说的话，我们所做的事，不仅仅被自家孩子所关注，更同时被这个国家所有的孩子听到和看到。这些孩子可能会对我说，“我在电视上看过你”或是“我在一份作业里写了你”，也可能就像那个抬头带着希望看着我丈夫的黑人小男孩，心里充满好奇，“我的头发和你的是一样的吗？”

And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls that is what we’re deciding, not Democrat or Republican, not left or right.No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.毫无疑问，今年11月我们去投票时，要做的就是这样一个决定，不是选择民主党或共和党，也不管左翼右翼之分。就同每一场选举一样，这场选举决定的是由谁来掌握一个大权，由谁来影响塑造孩子们生命中接下来的四年或六年。

And I am here tonight because in this election there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.今晚，我站在这里，因为在这场选举中，只有一个人,让我放心地将这个责任交付；只有一个人，我相信真正有能力胜任美国总统一职。这个人就是我们的朋友，希拉里•克林顿。That’s right.就是如此。

See, I trust Hillary to lead this country because I’ve seen her lifelong devotion to our nation’s children, not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion, kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they’ll ever afford college, kids whose parents don’t speak a word of English, but dream of a better life, kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be.我坚信希拉里能够领导这个国家，因为我见证了她以一生奉献予这个国家的孩子们，不仅仅是她那被栽培得近乎完美的女儿，更包括每一个需要保护的孩子——保护每一个需要走长长的路上学的孩子不受到犯罪团伙的伤害，帮助那些困惑于为何自己负担不起大学费用的孩子、那些自己的父母并不懂得说一句英语但自身梦想过上更好生活的孩子、那些等待着我们去决定他们的未来的孩子。

You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives, advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children’s health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the Senate.如你们所见，希拉里在几十年间一直任劳任怨地工作，为的是真正地使孩子们的生活有所不同。当她是个年轻律师时，她就为残障儿 童的权益发声；后来她成了第一夫人，她为孩子们的医疗保障奔忙；在国务卿任上，她依然在为孩子们争取高质量的保育环境。And when she didn’t win the nomination eight years ago, she didn’t get angry or disillusioned.Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments.So she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.并且，八年前她竞选失利之后，她并不恼怒，也没有灰心丧气。希拉里没有打包走人，因为作为一个真正的公共利益服务者，她懂得这份事业比个人的欲望与失望重要得多。所以，她又挺身而出，以国务卿的身份为我们的国家服务，为孩子们的安全走遍全球。And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs.But here’s the thing.What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure.She never takes the easy way out.And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.很多时候希拉里都可以抱怨她的工作有多难，为人民付出的代价有多大，自己的外貌或言语甚至笑容时刻被人指责有多心累。可是，我最佩服她的一点，就是无论面对多大的压力，她都不会垮掉，也从来不会偷懒。在她的世界里，永无放弃可言。

And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.所以，当我想象一个能为我的女儿和所有孩子带来美好和希望的美国总统的样子，这就是我想要的。

I want someone with the proven strength to persevere, someone who knows this job and takes it seriously, someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white and cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.我想要一个真正有能力坚持下去的人，一个了解这份工作、严肃对待它的人，一个懂得总统面对的问题不是非黑即白，也不能短短归结为140个字的人。

Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can’t make snap decisions.You can’t have a thin skin or a tendency to lash out.You need to be steady and measured and well-informed.因为当核武器的发射密码就在你指尖，并且手握着整个国家军队的时候，你不可以做出轻率的决定。你不能死要面子，也不能一戳就发火。你必须运筹帷幄、深思熟虑、见识广博。

I want a president with a record of public service, someone whose life’s work shows our children that we don’t chase fame and fortune for ourselves, we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.我心目中的总统，要有从事公众服务的纪录，用毕生工作向孩子们证明，我们奋斗的目标不是追名逐利，而是让每个人都有成功的机会。

And we give back even when we’re struggling ourselves because we know that there is always someone worse off.And there but for the grace of God go I.就算当我们苦苦挣扎的时候，也要回报这个社会，因为总有人的生活比你还艰难。我们没吃他们的苦，是因为上帝眷顾。

I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters, a president who truly believes in the vision that our Founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story.我想要的总统，应当告诉孩子们，我们国家的每一个人都很重要。他要深信国父们数百年前的理念，人人生而平等，每一个人都是伟大美国历史珍视的一部分。

And when crisis hits, we don’t turn against each other.No, we listen to each other, we lean on each other, because we are always stronger together.当危机到来时，我们绝不分崩离析。我们互相倾听，相互扶持，因为团结才会让我们更加强大。And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be.And that’s why in this election I’m with her.今晚我在这里就是想告诉大家，希拉里就会是这样一位总统。这就是为什么在这场大选中，我站在她的一边。

You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only, it’s about leaving something better for our kids.That’s how we’ve always moved this country forward, by all of us coming together on behalf of our children, folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village.她懂得作为一个总统，最主要的任务就是一件事，要为孩子们争取更美好的未来。为了孩子而团结起来，我们的国家就是这样不断进步的。不论是志愿做学生队教练的人，还是去当主日学的教师，他们都明白，培养下一代，需要整个国家的力量。

Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty, police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe.People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter in that club.不同肤色和信仰的英雄们穿上制服，冒着生命危险将自由的福祉传承下去。在达拉斯，警察和抗议者们都在拼尽全力地呼吁保护孩子们的安全。在奥兰多，人们排着队献血，因为他们知道，那晚在酒吧的也可能就是他们的孩子。

Leaders like Tim Kaine who show our kids what decency and devotion look like.Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her.蒂姆•凯恩这样的领袖让孩子们懂得了什么是正直与奉献。希拉里这样的领袖拥有的勇气和魅力，让她一直没有放弃，不断地冲击限制女性发展的那道最高最艰难的玻璃顶，直到她终于将其击碎，并带着我们一同提升。

That is the story of this country, the story that has brought me to this stage tonight, the story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women playing with their dogs on the White House lawn.这就是我们国家的故事，是这个故事让我今天站在这里。在这个故事中，曾有世世代代的人遭受着压迫和束缚，被奴役的耻辱和被隔离的痛苦。但是他们始终怀揣着希望，不息地抗争，所以今天的我才能每天在由奴隶建造的白宫里醒来，看着我的女儿们，两个美丽聪敏的黑皮肤少女，与狗狗们在白宫的草坪上嬉戏。

And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.因为希拉里，我的女儿，和所有的孩子们，觉得女人可以当美国总统，这是理所应当的事。

So, look, so don’t let anyone ever tell you that this country isn’t great, that somehow we need to make it great again.Because this right now is the greatest country on earth!所以，别再听别人说我们的国家不够好，我们要让她变好之类的话。因为此时此刻，这就是世界上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader who is worthy of my girls’ promise and all our kids’ promise, a leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.我的两个女儿就要去闯荡世界了，我希望能有一个领袖能够配得上这个真相，值得托付我的女儿以及所有孩子们的前途，能用爱与希望，和我们寄予孩子的无限期望来指导其每一天。

So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best.We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical.No, hear me.Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.所以在这次选举中，我们不能坐视着希望最后的结果是最好的，我们承受不起疲倦、沮丧或愤世嫉俗的代价。听我说，从现在起到十一月份，我们要像8年前或4年前那样，为之付出行动。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America!我们要挨家挨户敲门，让更多的人来投票。我们要用尽我们对这个国家的每一丝热情、每一份力量，和每一点爱，来推选希拉里•克林顿成为美利坚合众国的总统！

So let’s get to work.Thank you all and God bless.让我们行动起来吧。谢谢大家，上帝保佑。

第五篇：米歇尔为希拉里拉票演讲 中英文对照

Thank you all.Thank you so much.You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.谢谢大家。非常感谢。很难相信，自从我第一次来这个大会并对大家讲为何我丈夫应该当选美国总统已经8年了。

Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House?

还记得我是如何向你们讲述他的品行和坚定信念、他正派的作风和他的魅力、以及他每天在白宫里为国家奉献时，让我们有目共睹的那些优点?

I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world.And during our time in the White House, we’ve had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women, a journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington.我还对你们讲了我们的女儿，说她们是我们的心头肉，对我们来说是世界的中心。在我们住在白宫的这段时间，我们有幸能见证她们从活泼的小女孩成长为泰然自若的年轻女性，这是一趟自我们抵达华盛顿后不久就开始的旅程。

可千万别把心头肉翻译成flesh on my heart哦。

Have the joy of doing sth.的意思是“有幸能做什么”，并且表示很享受做这件事。

When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns.And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done?

我永远忘不了她们第一天出发去新学校上课的那一幕，那是一个冬天的早晨，我看着我们的女儿出发，她们一个7岁，一个10岁，和那些荷枪实弹的大汉们一起挤进那些黑色的SUV。我看着她们把小脸抵在车窗上，而我脑子里唯一能想到的话是：“我们都干了什么?”

Set off for sth.的意思是“开始着手做某事”，也可以说set off for doing sth.比如：He sets off for building his own house.他开始建造自己的房子。

Up against和单纯的against在大多数情况下可以互换，但当其中的up确实也表示“向上”的时候则不行。

See, because at that moment I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them.我想说的是，因为在那一刻我意识到：我们住在白宫的这段时间将成为她们今后人生的原点，而这段经历是将成就她们还是毁了她们都取决于我们如何经营这段人生。

当你想详细解释前面提到的东西的时候，可以简单地用see开头。

Make sb.是一种简洁地表示“成就某人”的方式，使用这个表达方式的时候重音一般放在make上。不过make sb.的意义很多，既能是正面的，也能使反面的，要视语境来判断如何翻译。比如：You are my childhood idol.You made me.(你是我的童年偶像，是你成就了我。)里可以翻译成“成就”;而I am a monster.But it’s you who made me.(我是个怪物。但是这都是你一手造成的。)里面就不行。

That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight, how we urge them to ignore those who question their father’s citizenship or faith.How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country.How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don’t stoop to their level.No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high.这就是我们夫妻二人每天为女儿们所想的事，我们思考：怎样在这种聚光灯下的非正常生活中，引导并保护她们，思索着怎样让他们面对其中的挑战。我们思考怎样劝导她们去无视那些质疑她们父亲公民身份以及信仰的人。我们思考怎样才能表明自己的立场，告诉他们电视上那些公众人物讲出的仇恨言论并不代表这个国家的真正精神。我们思考怎样向他们解释：当一个人表现得残忍又霸道的时候，你不能自贬身价去和他撕扯。不，我们的座右铭是：用更高的高尚来回应卑贱。

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us.We as parents are their most important role models.And let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls, but the children across this country, kids who tell us I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school.Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope and he wondered, is my hair like yours?

我们知道，我们孩子在注视着我们的一言一行。我们，作为父母，是他们最重要的榜样。而且我要告诉各位，我们夫妻二人在作为总统与第一夫人的时候也是这么做的，因为我们知道自己的言行举止举足轻重，它们不光会影响我们的女儿们，也影响着整个国家的孩子们：那些告诉我们、曾在电视上看到我们、并以我们为课程报告主题的孩子们，以及那个睁着充满希望的大眼睛，抬头看向我丈夫并想着自己的发型是不是和他一样的黑人小男孩。

Utter的意思和speak一样是“说”，不过它比speak要正式、书面很多。

Approach的意思是“方法、途径”，和means是一样的意思。

Matter在这里的用法和it doesn’t matter里是一样的，表示“举足轻重”，意思基本等同于make a difference。

表达“全国”可以用across the country、all over the country、throughout the country.And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls that is what we’re deciding, not Democrat or Republican, not left or right.No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.而且，请大家想明白，这才是我们今年11月投票时将要决定的，并非只是民主党和共和党的区别，并非只是左翼和右翼的区别。不，这场选举，以及所有选举所决定的，是未来4到8年将由谁来塑造我们的孩子。

Shape除了众所周知的名词意义，也可以作为动词“塑造”来用。Shape your future.塑造你的未来。

And I am here tonight because in this election there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.而我今晚出现在这里的原因是：在这场选举中，我只愿将此重任托付给一个人，我认为只有这个人才真正能够胜任美国总统一职，而她就是我们的朋友希拉里·克灵顿。

Trust sb.with sth.可以表示“在某件事上相信某人”，如：I trust you with what you do.(我信任你的专业能力)。也可以表示“将某件东西托付给某人”，如：I’ll trust you with my money.(我会将我的钱托付给你)。

Be qualified to do sth.的意思是“有资格做什么”，而且他强调的是“因为达到了怎样标准、拥有了怎样的品质，所以有资格”。

That’s right.See, I trust Hillary to lead this country because I’ve seen her lifelong devotion to our nation’s children, not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion, kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they’ll ever afford college, kids whose parents don’t speak a word of English, but dream of a better life, kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be.对。就是这样，我相信希拉里能领导这个国家，因为我看到她将一生都奉献给了我们国家的孩子们，不光只是她那被她培养到完美的女儿，而是所有的孩子们，是那些需要一个捍卫者的孩子们，是那些为了躲避地区帮派而绕远路上学的孩子们，是那些不知道自己怎样才能负担得起大学教育的孩子们，是那些虽然父母完全不懂英语自己却梦想着过上更好生活的孩子们，是那些寄希望于我们来决定他们未来的孩子们。

Champion除了“冠军”的意思还有“捍卫者”的意思，通常指的是“对一种理念、一种主义的捍卫者、拥戴者”。

Ever在这里是一种强调方式，是其“永远”含义的引申用法。

Look to sb.to do sth.的意思是“指望某人做某事”，通常只的是：因为对方有某种自己不具备的能力，所以讲希望寄托于对方。

You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives, advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children’s health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the Senate.如你们所见，希拉里在几十年间一直任劳任怨地工作，为的是真正地使孩子们的生活有所不同。当她是个年轻律师时，她就为残障儿童的权益发声;后来她成了第一夫人，她为孩子们的医疗保障奔忙;在国务卿任上，她依然在为孩子们争取高质量的保育环境。

And when she didn’t win the nomination eight years ago, she didn’t get angry or disillusioned.Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments.So she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.并且，八年前她竞选失利之后，她并不恼怒，也没有灰心丧气。希拉里没有打包走人，因为作为一个真正的公共利益服务者，她懂得这份事业比个人的欲望与失望重要得多。所以，她又挺身而出，以国务卿的身份为我们的国家服务，为孩子们的安全走遍全球。

And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs.But here’s the thing.What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure.She never takes the easy way out.And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.很多时候，希拉里都可以抱怨她的工作有多难，为人民付出的代价有多大，自己的外貌或言语甚至笑容时刻被人指责有多心累。可是，我最佩服她的一点，就是无论面对多大的压力，她都不会垮掉，也从来不会偷懒。在她的世界里，永无放弃可言。

Take the easy way out的意思是“选择更容易而非正确的道路”。

And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.所以，当我想象一个能为我的女儿和所有孩子带来美好和希望的美国总统的样子时，这就是我想要的。

I want someone with the proven strength to persevere, someone who knows this job and takes it seriously, someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white and cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.我想要一个真正有能力坚持下去的人，一个了解这份工作、严肃对待它的人，一个懂得总统面对的问题不是非黑即白，也不能短短归结为140个字的人。

Take something seriously是最为常用的表达“严肃对待某事”的用法。

Be boiled down to表示“可以总结为”，也可以用主动形式：it boils down to。

Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can’t make snap decisions.You can’t have a thin skin or a tendency to lash out.You need to be steady and measured and well-informed.因为当核武器的发射密码就在你指尖，并且手握着整个国家军队的时候，你不可以做出轻率的决定。你不能死要面子，也不能一戳就发火。你必须运筹帷幄、深思熟虑、见识广博。

Snap的原意是“啪地一下”，经常将它用作形容词来表示“草率的”，比如snap decision是“草率的决定”，snap shot是“草草拍摄的照片”。

Thin skin和中文里一样是“脸皮薄”的意思，不过它在英文里的对立面并不是“厚脸皮”，而是“忍辱负重”。

Lash out的基本意思是“大量挥霍”，既可以表示“大量挥霍钱财”，亦可以像这里一样表示“发火(大量宣泄情感)”。

I want a president with a record of public service, someone whose life’s work shows our children that we don’t chase fame and fortune for ourselves, we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.我心目中的总统，要有从事公众服务的纪录，用毕生工作向孩子们证明，我们奋斗的目标不是追名逐利，而是让每个人都有成功的机会。

And we give back even when we’re struggling ourselves because we know that there is always someone worse off.And there but for the grace of God go I.就算当我们苦苦挣扎的时候，也要回报这个社会，因为总有人的生活比你还艰难。我们没吃他们的苦，是因为上帝眷顾。

单纯使用worse就表示“这个人更差劲”，而加上off后表示“这个人的处境更差”。

But在这里不是表示“但是”，而是表示“若不是„„就„„”，后面的go I是倒装。

I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters, a president who truly believes in the vision that our Founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story.我想要的总统，应当告诉孩子们，我们国家的每一个人都很重要。他要深信国父们数百年前的理念，人人生而平等，每一个人都是伟大美国历史珍视的一部分。

Put forth a vision, 提出一个愿景。

Be created后面可以直接带形容词，用以表示“被创造成什么样子”。

And when crisis hits, we don’t turn against each other.No, we listen to each other, we lean on each other, because we are always stronger together.当危机到来时，我们绝不分崩离析。我们互相倾听，相互扶持，因为团结才会让我们更加强大。

And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be.And that’s why in this election I’m with her.今晚我在这里就是想告诉大家，希拉里就会是这样一位总统。这就是为什么在这场大选中，我站在她的一边。

这里的两个that中，第一个是宾语从句引导词，第二个是指代她要形容的总统。

With在表示“和”的同时也表达出一种“支持、拥戴、站在同一阵线”的意思，同时它也可以用来形容两个人处于情侣或夫妻关系，视语境不同翻译不同。

You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only, it’s about leaving something better for our kids.That’s how we’ve always moved this country forward, by all of us coming together on behalf of our children, folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village.她懂得作为一个总统，最主要的任务就是一件事，要为孩子们争取更美好的未来。为了孩子而团结起来，我们的国家就是这样不断进步的。不论是志愿做学生队教练的人，还是去当主日学的教师，他们都明白，培养下一代，需要整个国家的力量。

Village在这并不是“村子”的意思，而是“团体”的意思，it takes a village的意思是“这需要团结的力量”。

Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty, police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe.People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter in that club.不同肤色和信仰的英雄们穿上制服，冒着生命危险将自由的福祉传承下去。在达拉斯，警察和抗议者们都在拼尽全力地呼吁保护孩子们的安全。在奥兰多，人们排着队献血，因为他们知道，那晚在酒吧的也可能就是他们的孩子。

Leaders like Tim Kaine who show our kids what decency and devotion look like.Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her.蒂姆•凯恩这样的领袖让孩子们懂得了什么是正直与奉献。希拉里这样的领袖拥有的勇气和魅力，让她一直没有放弃，不断地冲击限制女性发展的那道最高最艰难的玻璃顶，直到她终于将其击碎，并带着我们一同提升。

Guts的意思是“勇气”，它在口语中要比courage常用得多。

Glass ceiling, 玻璃天花板，是指工作中、社会上被认为设定的不可逾越的瓶颈，通常由歧视等原因造成。

That is the story of this country, the story that has brought me to this stage tonight, the story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women playing with their dogs on the White House lawn.这就是我们国家的故事，是这个故事让我今天站在这里。在这个故事中，曾有世世代代的人遭受着压迫和束缚，被奴役的耻辱和被隔离的痛苦。但是他们始终怀揣着希望，不息地抗争，所以今天的我才能每天在由奴隶建造的白宫里醒来，看着我的女儿们，两个美丽聪敏的黑皮肤少女，与狗狗们在白宫的草坪上嬉戏。

Lash是“鞭打”，bondage是“捆绑”，这里他们在一起是指代奴隶制度。

And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.因为希拉里，我的女儿，和所有的孩子们，觉得女人可以当美国总统，这是理所应当的事。

So, look, so don’t let anyone ever tell you that this country isn’t great, that somehow we need to make it great again.Because this right now is the greatest country on earth!

所以，别再听别人说我们的国家不够好，我们要让她变好之类的话。因为此时此刻，这就是世界上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader who is worthy of my girls’ promise and all our kids’ promise, a leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.我的两个女儿就要去闯荡世界了，我希望能有一个领袖能够配得上这个真相，值得托付我的女儿以及所有孩子们的前途，能用爱与希望，和我们寄予孩子的无限期望来指导其每一天。

So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best.We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical.No, hear me.Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.所以在这次选举中，我们不能坐视着希望最后的结果是最好的，我们承受不起疲倦、沮丧或愤世嫉俗的代价。听我说，从现在起到十一月份，我们要像8年前或4年前那样，为之付出行动。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America!

我们要挨家挨户敲门，让更多的人来投票。我们要用尽我们对这个国家的每一丝热情、每一份力量，和每一点爱，来推选希拉里•克林顿成为美利坚合众国的总统!

So let’s get to work.Thank you all and God bless.让我们行动起来吧。谢谢大家，上帝保佑。
