第一篇:我有一个梦想中英文
我有一个梦想中英文.txt机会就像秃子头上一根毛,你抓住就抓住了,抓不住就没了。我和你说了10分钟的话,但却没有和你产生任何争论。那么,我们之间一定有个人变得虚伪无比!过错是短暂的遗憾,错过是永远的遗憾。相遇是缘,相知是份,相爱是约定,相守才是真爱。I Have a Dream 我有一个梦想
by Martin Luther King, Jr.马丁?路德?金 August 1963, at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C.1963年8月28日,于华盛顿特区林肯纪念堂前
I am happy to join with you today 今天,我高兴地同大家一起,in what will go down in history 参加这次将成为我国历史上
as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.为了争取自由而举行的最伟大的示威集会。
Five score years ago, 100年前,a great American, 一位伟大的美国人
in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, ——今天我们就站在他象征性的身影下—— signed the Emancipation Proclamation.签署了《解放宣言》。
This momentous decree came 这项重要法令的颁布,as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.对于千百万灼烤于非正义残焰中的黑奴,犹如带来希望之光的硕大灯塔,It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.恰似结束漫漫长夜禁锢的欢畅黎明。
But one hundred years later, 然而,100年后,the Negro still is not free.黑人依然没有获得自由。One hundred years later, 100年后,the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.黑人依然悲惨地蹒跚于种族隔离和种族歧视的枷锁之下。One hundred years later, 100年后,the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.黑人依然生活在物质繁荣翰海的贫困孤岛上。One hundred years later, 100年后,the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society 黑人依然在美国社会中间向隅而泣,and finds himself an exile in his own land.依然感到自己在国土家园中流离漂泊。
And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.所以,我们今天来到这里,要把这骇人听闻的情况公诸于众。
In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check.从某种意义上说,我们来到国家的首都是为了兑现一张支票。When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, 我们共和国的缔造者在拟写宪法和独立宣言的辉煌篇章时,they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.就签署了一张每一个美国人都能继承的期票。This note was a promise that all men, 这张期票向所有人承诺
yes, black men as well as white men, ——不论白人还是黑人——
would be guaranteed the “unalienable Rights” of “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” 都享有不可让渡的生存权、自由权和追求幸福权。
It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.然而,今天美国显然对她的有色公民拖欠着这张期票。Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, 相反,美国没有承兑这笔神圣的债务,America has given the Negro people a bad check, 而是给黑人一张空头支票
a check which has come back marked “insufficient funds”.——一张盖着“资金不足”的印戳被退回的支票。
But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.但是,我们决不相信正义的银行会破产。We refuse to believe that 我们决不相信
there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.这个国家巨大的机会宝库会资金不足。
So, we've come to cash this check, 因此,我们来兑现这张支票。这张支票将给我们以宝贵的自由和正义的保障。a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.这张支票将给我们以宝贵的自由和正义的保障。
We have also come to this hallowed spot 我们来到这块圣地还为了提醒美国:
to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now.现在正是万分紧急的时刻。
(This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off 现在不是从容不迫悠然行事
or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.或服用渐进主义镇静剂的时候。)Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy.现在是实现民主诺言的时候。Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation 现在是走出幽暗荒凉的种族隔离深谷,to the sunlit path of racial justice.踏上种族平等的阳关大道的时候 Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice 现在是使我们国家走出种族不平等的流沙,to the solid rock of brotherhood.踏上充满手足之情的磐石的时候。Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.现在是使上帝所有孩子真正享有公正的时候。It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment.忽视这一时刻的紧迫性,对于国家将会是致命的。
This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.自由平等的朗朗秋日不到来,黑人顺情合理哀怨的酷暑就不会过去。Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, 1963年不是一个结束,but a beginning.而是一个开端。
And those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.如果国家依然我行我素,那些希望黑人只需出出气就会心满意足的人将大失所望。And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.在黑人得到公民权之前,美国既不会安宁,也不会平静。
The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation 反抗的旋风将继续震撼我们国家的基石,until the bright day of justice emerges.直至光辉灿烂的正义之日来临。
But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: 但是,对于站在通向正义之宫艰险门槛上的人们,有一些话我必须要说。In the process of gaining our rightful place, 在我们争取合法地位的过程中,we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.切不要错误行事导致犯罪。Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.我们切不要吞饮仇恨辛酸的苦酒,来解除对于自由的饮渴。
We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.我们应该永远得体地、纪律严明地进行斗争。
We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence.我们不能容许我们富有创造性的抗议沦为暴力行动。
Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.我们应该不断升华到用灵魂力量对付肉体力量的崇高境界。The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community 席卷黑人社会的新的奇迹般的战斗精神,must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, 不应导致我们对所有白人的不信任,for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny.因为许多白人兄弟已经认识到:
——他们今天来到这里参加集会就是明证,他们的命运同我们的命运紧密相连,And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.他们已经认识到他们的自由同我们的自由休戚相关。
We cannot walk alone.我们不能单独行动。And as we walk, 当我们行动时,we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.我们必须保证勇往直前。We cannot turn back.我们不能后退。
There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, 有人问热心民权运动的人:
“When will you be satisfied?” “你们什么时候会感到满意?” We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality.只要黑人依然是不堪形容的警察暴行恐怖的牺牲品,我们就决不会满意。We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities.只要我们在旅途劳顿后,却被公路旁汽车游客旅社和城市旅馆拒之门外,我们就决不会满意。(只要黑人的基本活动范围只限于从狭小的黑人居住区到较大的黑人居住区,我们就决不会满意。只要我们的孩子被“仅供白人”的牌子剥夺个性,损毁尊严,我们就决不会满意。)We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.只要密西西比州的黑人不能参加选举,纽约州的黑人认为他们与选举毫不相干,我们就决不会满意。
No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until “justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.” 不,不,我们不会满意,直至“公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌”。
I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations.我并非没有注意到你们有些人历尽艰难困苦来到这里。Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells.你们有些人刚刚走出狭小的牢房。
And some of you have come from areas where your quest--quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution 有些人来自因追求自由而遭受迫害风暴袭击
and staggered by the winds of police brutality.和警察暴虐狂飙摧残的地区。
You have been the veterans of creative suffering.你们饱经风霜,历尽苦难。
Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.继续努力吧,要相信:无辜受苦终得拯救。
Go back to Mississippi, 回到密西西比去吧,go back to Alabama, 回到亚拉巴马去吧,go back to South Carolina, 回到南卡罗来纳去吧,go back to Georgia, 回到佐治亚去吧,go back to Louisiana, 回到路易斯安那去吧,go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, 回到我们北方城市中的贫民窟和黑人居住区去吧。
knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.要知道,这种情况能够而且将会改变。
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, 我们切不要在绝望的深渊里沉沦。
I say to you today, my friends, 朋友们,今天我要对你们说,so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, 尽管眼下困难重重,I still have a dream.但我依然怀有一个梦。
It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.这个梦深深植根于美国梦之中。
I have a dream that one day 我梦想有一天,this nation will rise up, 这个国家将会奋起,live out the true meaning of its creed: 实现其立国信条的真谛:

I have a dream that one day 我梦想有一天,even the state of Mississippi, 甚至连密西西比州 a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, ——一个非正义和压迫的热浪逼人的荒漠之州,will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.也会改造成为自由和公正的青青绿洲。
I have a dream that my four little children 我梦想有一天,我的四个小女儿

第二篇:我有一个梦想中英文版本
中英文版,自由写作,我有一个梦想/I have a dream
文稿一
我有一个梦想
有人说:“理想总会实现,梦想终究会破灭,而我们有的只是幻想”。可是我并不认同这一点。梦想固然虚幻唯美,离我们的距离很遥远,但是,只要坚持、努力,不断的积累,也是有实现的可能!
其实,我们每个人心底都有属于自己美好的梦想,但大多数人觉得那是遥不可及的,于是将它深深地埋在心底,连破土的机会都不给它,那梦想又怎能开出绚丽芬芳的花儿呢?
丑小鸭有一个梦想,梦想着长大后变成高贵的白天鹅;毛毛虫有一个梦想,梦想着长达后变成一只美丽的蝴蝶;鱼池里的鱼儿有一个梦想,梦想着长大后奔向浩瀚的大海;雏鸟有一个梦想,梦想着长大后飞向辽阔的蓝天!
我有一个梦想,希望世界不再动荡不安,没有战争、贫困和饥荒,幸福的阳光普照世间,和平的鲜花开满大地。
我有一个梦想,希望大地不在荒芜凄凉,没有破坏、掠夺和污染,清澈江河任鱼游,也鸟儿们一个温暖的家。
我有一个梦想,希望人类不再忧伤,没有恐惧、歧视和眼泪,欢乐的歌声响彻四方,天真的孩子健康成长。
我有一个梦想,希望这所有的希望化成美好的理想,让我们携起手来,迎接这一天的到来,用我们的爱实现梦想!让梦想成真!
I have a dream
There is a saying that any ideal will be a dream, and finally it will be a fantasy.But I am strongly against it.Even though dream seems visional beautiful , far from the reality, it might succeed in one day if we spare no effort to pursue it!
As a matter of fact, there is a very beautiful dream from the bottom of our hearts but most people think it is beyond our capability to achieve it ,then we choose to bury it up in the heart.If we do not give us a chance to try ,how can our dream come true in one day ?The ugly duckling dreams to become a noble swan;the caterpillar dreams to become a beautiful butterfly;those fishes who are living in the pond dream to live in sea after growing up;the chicks dream to hover over the sky.I have a dream that one day our world is no longer in turmoil and there is no war, poverty and famine in our world.The sunshine of happiness falls across the land and nature is in its full bloom.I have a dream that one day the land is no longer desolate and barren and there is no destruction, plunder and contamination in our world.We will give back the peace to the land , rebuilding a warm home for the birds and the clean river for the fishes.I have a dream that one day people will feel joy and peace and people will get along well with each other instead of cheating.The world reverberates with gaiety and laughter
This is my hope.With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope to accomplish our dream.Let us work together to welcome the day that the dream came true with our love.Let’s embrace the new days.
第三篇:我有一个梦想演讲稿(中英文)
马丁·路德·金《I have a dream》演讲全文
I Have a Dream by Martin Luther King, Jr.I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.今天,我高兴地同大家一起,参加这次将成为我国历史上为了争取自由而举行的最伟大的示威集会。
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.100年前,一位伟大的美国人——今天我们就站在他象征性的身影下——签署了《解放宣言》。
This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.这项重要法令的颁布,对于千百万灼烤于非正义残焰中的黑奴,It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.犹如带来希望之光的硕大灯塔,恰似结束漫漫长夜禁锢的欢畅黎明。
But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.然而,100年后,黑人依然没有获得自由。One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.100年后,黑人依然悲惨地蹒跚于种族隔离和种族歧视的枷锁之下。
One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.100年后,黑人依然生活在物质繁荣翰海的贫困孤岛上。
One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.100年后,黑人依然在美国社会中间向隅而泣,依然感到自己在国土家园中流离漂泊。
And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.所以,我们今天来到这里,要把这骇人听闻的情况公诸于众。
In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check.从某种意义上说,我们来到国家的首都是为了兑现一张支票。
When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence,我们共和国的缔造者在拟写宪法和独立宣言的辉煌篇章时,they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.就签署了一张每一个美国人都能继承的期票。
This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the “unalienable Rights” of “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” 这张期票向所有人承诺——不论白人还是黑人——都享有不可让渡的生存权、自由权和追求幸福权。
It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.然而,今天美国显然对她的有色公民拖欠着这张期票。Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.”美国没有承兑这笔神圣的债务,而是开始给黑人一张空头支票——一张盖着“资金不足”的印戳被退回的支票。
But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.但是,我们决不相信正义的银行会破产。
We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.我们决不相信这个国家巨大的机会宝库会资金不足。
And so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.因此,我们来兑现这张支票。这张支票将给我们以宝贵的自由和正义的保障。
We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now.我们来到这块圣地还为了提醒美国:现在正是万分紧急的时刻。
This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.现在不是从容不迫悠然行事或服用渐进主义镇静剂的时候。
Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy.现在是实现民主诺言的时候。
Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.现在是走出幽暗荒凉的种族隔离深谷,踏上种族平等的阳关大道的时候。Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.现在是使我们国家走出种族不平等的流沙,踏上充满手足之情的磐石的时候。
Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.现在是使上帝所有孩子真正享有公正的时候。
It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment.忽视这一时刻的紧迫性,对于国家将会是致命的。This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.自由平等的朗朗秋日不到来,黑人顺情合理哀怨的酷暑就不会过去。
Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.1963年不是一个结束,而是一个开端。
And those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.如果国家依然我行我素,那些希望黑人只需出出气就会心满意足的人将大失所望。
And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.在黑人得到公民权之前,美国既不会安宁,也不会平静。
The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.反抗的旋风将继续震撼我们国家的基石,直至光辉灿烂的正义之日来临。
But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice:但是,对于站在通向正义之宫艰险门槛上的人们,有一些话我必须要说。
In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.在我们争取合法地位的过程中,切不要错误行事导致犯罪。Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.我们切不要吞饮仇恨辛酸的苦酒,来解除对于自由的饮渴。

The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of 席卷黑人社会的新的奇迹般的战斗精神,不应导致我们对所有白人的不信任all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny.——因为许多白人兄弟已经认识到:他们的命运同我们的命运紧密相连,他们的自由同我们的自由休戚相关。And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.他们今天来到这里参加集会就是明证。
We cannot walk alone.我们不能单独行动。
And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.当我们行动时,我们必须保证勇往直前。We cannot turn back.我们不能后退。

We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.只要密西西比州的黑人不能参加选举,纽约州的黑人认为他们 与选举毫不相干,我们就决不会满意。No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until “justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.”不,不,我们不会满意,直至公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌。

And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.如果美国要成为伟大的国家,这一点必须实现。
And so let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.因此,让自由之声响彻新罕布什尔州的巍峨高峰!Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.让自由之声响彻纽约州的崇山峻岭!
Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.让自由之声响彻宾夕法尼亚州的阿勒格尼高峰!
Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.让自由之声响彻科罗拉多州冰雪皑皑的洛基山!
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California.让自由之声响彻加利福尼亚州的婀娜群峰!
But not only that:Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.不,不仅如此;让自由之声响彻佐治亚州的石山!
Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.让自由之声响彻田纳西州的望山!
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.让自由之声响彻密西西比州的一座座山峰,一个个土丘!From every mountainside, let freedom ring.让自由之声响彻每一个山岗!
And when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet,当我们让自由之声轰响,当我们让自由之声响彻每一个大村小庄,from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day每一个州府城镇,我们就能加速这一天的到来。when all of God's children, black men and white men,那时,上帝的所有孩子,黑人和白人,Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:犹太教徒和非犹太教徒,耶稣教徒和天主教徒,将能携手同唱那首古老的黑人灵歌:“
Free at last!free at last!终于自由了!终于自由了!
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!感谢全能的上帝,我们终于自由了!
第四篇:马丁路德金_我有一个梦想(中英文)演讲稿
今天,我高兴地同大家一起,参加这次将成为我国历史上为了争取自由而举行的最伟大的示威集会。
100年前,一位伟大的美国人--今天我们就站在他象征性的身影下--签署了《解放宣言》。这项重要法令的颁布,对于千百万灼烤于非正义残焰中的黑奴,犹如带来希望之光的硕大灯塔,恰似结束漫漫长夜禁锢的欢畅黎明。
然而,100年后,黑人依然没有获得自由。100年后,黑人依然悲惨地蹒跚于种族隔离和种族歧视的枷锁之下。100年后,黑人依然生活在物质繁荣翰海的贫困孤岛上。100年后,黑人依然在美国社会中间向隅而泣,依然感到自己在国土家园中流离漂泊。
所以,我们今天来到这里,要把这骇人听闻的情况公诸于众。
从某种意义上说,我们来到国家的首都是为了兑现一张支票。我们共和国的缔造者在拟写宪法和独立宣言的辉煌篇章时,就签署了一张每一个美国人都能继承的期票。这张期票向所有人承诺--不论白人还是黑人--都享有不可让渡的生存权、自由权和追求幸福权。
然而,今天美国显然对她的有色公民拖欠著这张期票。美国没有承兑这笔神圣的债务,而是开始给黑人一张空头支票--一张盖著“资金不足”的印戳被退回的支票。但是,我们决不相信正义的银行会破产。我们决不相信这个国家巨大的机会宝库会资金不足。
因此,我们来兑现这张支票。这张支票将给我们以宝贵的自由和正义的保障。
我们来到这块圣地还为了提醒美国:现在正是万分紧急的时刻。现在不是从容不迫悠然行事或服用渐进主义镇静剂的时候。现在是实现民主诺言的时候。现在是走出幽暗荒凉的种族隔离深谷,踏上种族平等的阳关大道的时候。现在是使我们国家走出种族不平等的流沙,踏上充满手足之情的磐石的时候。现在是使上帝所有孩子真正享有公正的时候。
忽视这一时刻的紧迫性,对于国家将会是致命的。自由平等的朗朗秋日不到来,黑人顺情合理哀怨的酷暑就不会过去。1963年不是一个结束,而是一个开端。
如果国家依然我行我素,那些希望黑人只需出出气就会心满意足的人将大失所望。
在黑人得到公民权之前,美国既不会安宁,也不会平静。反抗的旋风将继续震撼我们国家的基石,直至光辉灿烂的正义之日来临。
但是,对于站在通向正义之宫艰险门槛上的人们,有一些话我必须要说。在我们争取合法地位的过程中,切不要错误行事导致犯罪。我们切不要吞饮仇恨辛酸的苦酒,来解除对于自由的饮渴。
我们应该永远得体地、纪律严明地进行斗争。我们不能容许我们富有创造性的抗议沦为暴力行动。我们应该不断升华到用灵魂力量对付肉体力量的崇高境界。
席卷黑人社会的新的奇迹般的战斗精神,不应导致我们对所有白人的不信任--因为许多白人兄弟已经认识到:他们的命运同我们的命运紧密相连,他们的自由同我们的自由休戚相关。他们今天来到这里参加集会就是明证。
我们不能单独行动。当我们行动时,我们必须保证勇往直前。我们不能后退。有人问热心民权运动的人:“你们什么时候会感到满意?”只要黑人依然是不堪形容的警察暴行恐怖的牺牲品,我们就决不会满意。只要我们在旅途劳顿后,却被公路旁汽车游客旅社和城市旅馆拒之门外,我们就决不会满意。只要黑人的基本活动范围只限于从狭小的黑人居住区到较大的黑人居住区,我们就决不会满意。只要我们的孩子被“仅供白人”的牌子剥夺个性,损毁尊严,我们就决不会满意。只要密西西比州的黑人不能参加选举,纽约州的黑人认为他们与选举毫不相干,我们就决不会满意。不,不,我们不会满意,直至公正似水奔流,正义如泉喷涌。
我并非没有注意到你们有些人历尽艰难困苦来到这里。你们有些人刚刚走出狭小的牢房。有些人来自因追求自由而遭受迫害风暴袭击和警察暴虐狂飙摧残的地区。你们饱经风霜,历尽苦难。继续努力吧,要相信:无辜受苦终得拯救。
回到密西西比去吧;回到亚拉巴马去吧;回到南卡罗来纳去吧;回到佐治亚去吧;回到路易斯安那去吧;回到我们北方城市中的贫民窟和黑人居住区去吧。要知道,这种情况能够而且将会改变。我们切不要在绝望的深渊里沉沦。
朋友们,今天我要对你们说,尽管眼下困难重重,但我依然怀有一个梦。这个梦深深植根于美国梦之中。
我梦想有一天,这个国家将会奋起,实现其立国信条的真谛:“我们认为这些真理不言而喻:人人生而平等。”
我梦想有一天,在佐治亚州的红色山岗上,昔日奴隶的儿子能够同昔日奴隶主的儿子同席而坐,亲如手足。
我梦想有一天,甚至连密西西比州--一个非正义和压迫的热浪逼人的荒漠之州,也会改造成为自由和公正的青青绿洲。
我梦想有一天,我的四个小女儿将生活在一个不是以皮肤的颜色,而是以品格的优劣作为评判标准的国家里。
我今天怀有一个梦。
我梦想有一天,亚拉巴马州会有所改变--尽管该州州长现在仍滔滔不绝地说什么要对联邦法令提出异议和拒绝执行--在那里,黑人儿童能够和白人儿童兄弟姐妹般地携手并行。
我今天怀有一个梦。
我梦想有一天,深谷弥合,高山夷平,歧路化坦途,曲径成通衢,上帝的光华再现,普天下生灵共谒。
这是我们的希望。这是我将带回南方去的信念。有了这个信念,我们就能从绝望之山开采出希望之石。有了这个信念,我们就能把这个国家的嘈杂刺耳的争吵声,变为充满手足之情的悦耳交响曲。有了这个信念,我们就能一同工作,一同祈祷,一同斗争,一同入狱,一同维护自由,因为我们知道,我们终有一天会获得自由。到了这一天,上帝的所有孩子都能以新的含义高唱这首歌:
我的祖国,可爱的自由之邦,我为您歌唱。这是我祖先终老的地方,这是早期移民自豪的地方,让自由之声,响彻每一座山岗。
如果美国要成为伟大的国家,这一点必须实现。因此,让自由之声响彻新罕布什尔州的巍峨高峰!
让自由之声响彻纽约州的崇山峻岭!
让自由之声响彻宾夕法尼亚州的阿勒格尼高峰!
让自由之声响彻科罗拉多州冰雪皑皑的洛基山!
让自由之声响彻加利福尼亚州的婀娜群峰!
不,不仅如此;让自由之声响彻佐治亚州的石山!
让自由之声响彻田纳西州的望山!
让自由之声响彻密西西比州的一座座山峰,一个个土丘!
让自由之声响彻每一个山岗!
当我们让自由之声轰响,当我们让自由之声响彻每一个大村小庄,每一个州府城镇,我们就能加速这一天的到来。那时,上帝的所有孩子,黑人和白人,犹太教徒和非犹太教徒,耶稣教徒和天主教徒,将能携手同唱那首古老的黑人灵歌:“终于自由了!终于自由了!感谢全能的上帝,我们终于自由了!”
I have a Dream
by Martin Luther King, Jr.Delivered on the steps at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.on August 28, 1963
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the Emancipation Proclamation.This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free.One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check.When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.This note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.” But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation.So we have come to cash this check--a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now.This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God's children.Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro.This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice.In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence.Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.We cannot walk alone.And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead.We cannot turn back.There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, “When will you be satisfied?” We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities.We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one.We can never be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations.Some of you have come fresh from narrow cells.Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality.You have been the veterans of creative suffering.Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.Let us not wallow in the valley of despair.I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident;that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood.I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.I have a dream today.I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor's lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.I have a dream today.I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.This is our hope.This is the faith with which I return to the South.With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a new meaning
My country, 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing:
Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrim's pride, From every mountainside, Let freedom ring.And if America is to be a great nation this must become true.So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!
Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado!Let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of California!
But not only that;let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia!Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee!
Let freedom ring from every hill and every molehill of Mississippi.From every mountainside, let freedom ring.When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last!free at last!thank God almighty, we are free at last!”
附上从此链接找到的分析:http://www.xiexiebang.com.hk/elearning/betterenglish/speech_text_textonly2.htm
在林肯之后大约一百年,美国又出现一位伟大的演说家—六十年代黑人民权运动家马丁路德金(Martin Luther King),这次要介绍的是他一篇传颂千古、光芒四射的演说《我有一个梦想》(I have a Dream)。
马丁路德金也用了和林肯一样的技巧,不断重复I have a dream这句子。梦想(Dream)虽然也虚无飘渺,但“Dream”是一个实物名词,即中文的形像思维,由于每个人都会做梦,用它来代表理想(Ideal)和希望(Hope),比后两者来得更有力。事实上,我们无论富贫,每个人都会有梦想,或希望中六合彩,或希望家庭和谐。马丁路德金对着千万听众,重复I have a dream不下十多次,就像林肯在盖提斯堡演说中,重复Dedicated这个字眼一样,对群众产生很大的煽动力︰
I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.American dream即美国梦,代表了美国开国以来,无数欧洲移民和难民,凭自己一双手在新大陆开拓土地和创造财富的故事,是美国人共同的梦想。马丁路德金很技巧地不断重复Dream这个字眼,唤起美国人的记忆。
演说中,马丁路德金也善用重复的技巧于其它字眼身上,例如︰With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.可以设想,马丁路德金当日用雄浑的黑人声腔,在广场上对着万千黑人和白人,不断重复Together这个字,加上他有力的双臂,煽动力之强可想而知。难怪美国政府也不能容忍,于是,没有人知道为什么,一名刺客在一间汽车酒店中,用一颗子弹夺去了他的生命。
马丁路德金的演讲对象主要是黑人,当时黑人一般教育程度不高,因此他在演说中没有引用什么名人、哲学家的金句,反而很聪明地引用了一首黑人很熟悉的儿歌,令听众产生认同感,从而加强其演说的威力︰
My country, 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing:
Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrim's pride, From every mountainside, Let freedom ring.马丁路德金在演讲的最后部分成功控制节奏,将演讲推向口号的高潮︰Free at last!free at last!thank God almighty, we are free at last!演讲本来不宜使用口号,但如果运用得当,却可以将民众的情绪推向高峰。
顺便贴一下林肯的演讲:
葛底斯堡演讲词
THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS
--亚伯拉罕.林肯
by Abraham Lincoln
八十七年以前,我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家,它孕育于自由,并且献身给一种理念,即所有人都是生来平等的。
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.当前,我们正在从事一次伟大的内战,我们在考验,究竟这个国家,或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家,是否能长久存在。我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。我们来到这里,奉献那个战场上的一部分土地,作为在此地为那个国家的生存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永久眠息之所。我们这样做,是十分合情合理的。
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.We are met on a great battle-field of that war.We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live.It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.可是,就更深一层意义而言,我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不能把它变为人们景仰之所。那些在这里战斗的勇士,活着的和死去的,已使这块土地神圣化了,远非我们的菲薄能力所能左右。世人会不大注意,更不会长久记得我们在此地所说的话,然而他们将永远忘不了这些人在这里所做的事。相反,我们活着的人应该献身于那些曾在此作战的人们所英勇推动而尚未完成的工作。我们应该在此献身于我们面前所留存的伟大工作--由于他们的光荣牺牲,我们要更坚定地致力于他们曾作最后全部贡献的那个事业--我们在此立志宣誓,不能让他们白白死去--要使这个国家在上帝的庇佑之下,得到新生的自由--要使那民有、民治、民享的政府不致从地球上消失。
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we cannot consecrate-we cannot hallow-this ground.The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain-that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom-and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

2、作者演讲的意义及其影响。
教学时数:二课时
教学方法:讲读法、朗读法、讨论法综合运用
教具准备:录音机、磁带
教学内容及步骤:第一教时
一、导入课题:
1955年12月1日,一位名叫罗莎·帕克斯的黑人妇女在阿拉巴马乘坐公共汽车,坐到“白人专坐”的区域内。她因拒绝挪动座位而被警察带走。于是黑人们成立了一个组织,要求公共汽车公司改变这种不公正的做法,马丁·路德·金被推荐为这个组织的领头人。他们在市内散发了好多传单,传单上说,“你去上班时,请乘出租车去,或搭别人的车去,或步行。”整整一年里,黑人拒绝乘坐市内公共汽车。马丁·路德·金号召黑人要继续斗争。他的房子被人毁坏了,有段时间他的生命也受到威胁,最后该州首府律师说,公共汽车公司无权在车上把黑人和白人分开。
1963年8月28日,华盛顿特区组织了一次25万人的集会,要求种族平等。马丁·路德·金向成千上万的黑人发表了一篇演讲,这篇演讲辞立即举世闻名。他讲话没有讲话稿,他把自己对前途的看法用充满激情的语言告诉了云集的听众,这篇讲话稿就是今天我们要学习的课文——
板题:我有一个梦想
二、解题:
这是一篇充满激情,在纪念《解放黑奴宣言》一百周年集会上的演讲辞。
作者:马丁·路德·金(见“注解”和“同步辅导”第50页“作者介绍”)美国一位重要的政治领袖(美国黑人民权领袖),出色的演说家、被誉为“黑人之音”、博士。他学识丰富。1964年获若贝尔和平奖。动口是他主要的斗争手段,因此他的演讲诉求目的十分明确,充满激情,有极强的说服力和号召力。1968年4月被种族分子枪杀。为了纪念他,美国政府将每年1月的第三个星期一定为全国纪念日。
三分析:
课文是作者1963年8月28日在美国华盛顿特区的一次25万人的集会上要求种族平等的演讲。
这篇演讲辞指出宣言签署一百年来美国在社会制度上存在着的弊端,黑人仍在遭受着不平等的待遇,号召黑人同支持他们的白人一道,采取用精神斗争的方式,为争取本民族的自由,为了美国真正成为一个平等、自由的国家而战斗。
放课文录音,学生掌握文章中的字词。(详情见学法大视野第52页和同步辅导第51页)。课文是篇演讲辞,属于议论文的范畴。议论文的结构则是:提出问题(我们为什么要集会的原因)——分析问题(分析集会的根源)——解决问题(我的梦想所指的具体内容)。依据议论文的结构特点和作者演讲的思路,可以将此篇课文分为三大部分。
四、请同学们在课文中划出其结构,并概括各部分大意。
1<1——4自然段>指出集会的原因。
2<5——16自然段>提出斗争的要求和设想。
3<17——32自然段>具体提出梦想的具体内容。
五、学生快速阅读全文,思考下列问题:
1、这一次演讲是针对什么人的?(美国黑人,同时也包括美国政府)
2、演讲的时间、地点、场合各是什么?(时间:1963年8月28日;地点:
3、华盛顿广场;场合:在华盛顿特区组织的25万人的集会上)
4、我有一个梦想中的梦想具体指什么?(彻底消除种族隔离政策,让民主
平等、自由真正深入到生活的每个方面,每一个角落)
5、这次演讲作者想达到什么目的?(进一步推动黑人要求自由、公正、平
等的运动,加快实现理想的步伐)
第二教时
一、分析第一部分。
第一部分是作者指出集会的原因。
学生齐读第一自然段,思考、讨论弄清:
这一自然段是作者回顾、肯定《解放黑奴宣言》的重大意义。一共三句,其中说到“伟大的美国人”指谁?(美国总统林肯)
什么是《解放黑奴宣言》?(美国南北战争期间林肯总统于1862年9月22日颁布的宣言)
这一段讲到一百多年以前的历史,它的意义和作用是什么?(见“学法大视野”第52页和“同步辅导”第51页。游行集会的目的很清楚,就是黑人要求自由、平等,而这个主题早在一个世纪以前就被当时的一位伟人写在了《解放黑奴
宣言》里,时至今日,黑人的权利还不能够得到保障。因此有必要重提历史,一是表示对政府的不满,一是昭示明众,我们并非无理处闹。我们必须奋斗,也许前面的路还很长。)
由此可见:作者的演讲不仅是讲给美国黑人听的,也是讲给美国政府听的。
二、分析第二部分。
第二部分是作者指出斗争的要求和设想。
学生快速阅读这一部分,弄清下列句子的含义:
书第43页第六自然段:“自由和平等的爽朗秋天如不到来,黑人义愤填膺的酷暑就不会过去”。
(见“同步辅导”第51页)这里作者运用比喻,把黑人也享有自由平等、摆脱贫困、享受教育的那一天比作爽朗的秋天,这样就能把黑人为之奋斗的最终结果的感受,生动而直观地传达给听众。与此形成对比的则为“酷暑”,“酷暑”一是揭示了黑人备受摧残的生活现状,二是指黑人胸中的怒火。
书第43页第六自然段:“黑人得不到公民的权利,美国就不可能有安宁或平
静;正义的光明的一天不到来,叛乱的旋风就将继续动摇这个国家的基础。”
“叛乱的旋风”指60年代一部分深受压迫的黑人揭竿而起,他们组织起来,在城市地区开展游击式的武装斗争。斗争形势犹如旋风席卷了美国许多城市。美国是以“人人生而平等”为立国之本。那么多黑人因为得不到平等权利奋而开展武装斗争,倘若不能从源头上加以遏止,将会形成燎原之势,当然就会“动摇”这个国家的基础。
书第43页第七自然段:“我们要不断地升华到以精神力量对付物质力量的崇高境界中去”。
“精神力量”指用和平方式推动黑人民权运动。“物质力量”政府、议会、警察、法庭。反平等反自由的势力是靠政府、议会、警察、法庭这些“物质力量”的撑腰才能猖獗。“要不断地升华到以精神力量对付物质力量的崇高境界中去”就是要以和平方式争取黑人权利,反对采用暴力,反对武装斗争,民权运动应该以自己的精神力量和现实中的巨大的物质力量相对抗。他认为这项事业是崇高的,因而充满了必胜的信心。
这一部分讲到斗争的策略,主要是在文章中的第七至第十六自然段。这几段可以分作三层(见“同步辅导”第51页)。
作者的主张是“不要为了满足对自由的渴望而抱着敌对和仇视之杯痛饮” 一而再,再而三的强调不要用暴力,不要采用武装斗争,这是为什么?
(见“同步辅导”第51页)因为作者深受印度圣雄甘地非暴力思想的影响,主张用和平的方式争取正当的权利,反对“以暴制暴”,而应当用包容、忍耐和博爱的精神来对抗仇恨。
三、分析第三部分。
第三部分是作者具体提出梦想的内容。
学生快速阅读这一部分,弄清下列句子的含义:
书第44页第二十六自然段:“有了这个信念,我们将能把这个国家刺耳的争吵声,改变成为一支洋溢手足之情的优美交响曲”。
(见“同步辅导”第51页)“这个信念”指前文的梦想,即自由、民主、平等的那一天一定能够到来,正是有了这样一种信念,他们才有了拼搏奋斗的力量
源泉。所谓“交响曲”是一种大型管弦乐奏曲,既有管乐,又有弦乐,自然少不了合奏与交响。作者把它用到这儿,可谓匠心独运,恰到好处,因为它恰如其分地展现了黑人运动取得最终胜利后和白人一样共享美好生活的和谐而又优美的画面。
我有一个梦想中的梦想包括哪些内容?简单地说可用六个字概括:民主、自由、平等。具体地说,即政治上,希望美国的有色人种能享有和白人一样的生存、自由和追求幸福的权力,有同等的地位和公民权,而不是作为二等公民备受歧视和压迫。文化上,希望得到尊重和理解,人们不再以脸色,而是以品格的优劣来评判他们,有和白人一样受教育的权利和自由。经济上,希望有和白人一样的就业和发展的机会,而不是像现在这样被限制在固定的贫困区,贫困潦倒。
这篇政治演讲辞作者之所以能够深深打动听众,不仅在于作者合理地安排思路,激情飞扬的演讲,还在于作者很讲究技巧,善于调动各种艺术手法,恰当地使用比喻、排比,把充沛的情感灌注到演讲中去。请同学们找出文中的比喻和排比句,并加以分析。

第一自然段:“一百年后的今天,黑人仍生活在物质充裕的海洋中一个穷困的孤岛上。”这一连串的比喻,形象地揭示了黑人由于被排挤而在富裕的美国仍然贫穷。
第一自然段:“一百年后的今天,黑人仍然卷缩在美国社会的角落里,并且,意识到自己是故土家园中的流亡者。”这一连串的比喻进一步形象地揭示了黑人精神上受歧视,没有安全感和归宿感。
第二自然段:四次重复用“一百年后的今天”,这一排比把黑人在美国社会中被排挤、受歧视因而贫困的境地描述得非常清楚,增强了演讲的气势,增添了语言的文采。
