比爾蓋茨《釋放你的創(chuàng)造力》英語演講稿

　　I've always been an optimist and I supposed that is rooted in my belief that the power of creativity and intelligence can make the world a better place.

　　我天生樂觀，堅信人類憑創(chuàng)造力和聰明才智可以讓世界日益美妙，這一設想一直根植于我的內心深處。

　　For as long as I can remember, I've loved learning new things and solving problems. So when I sat down at a computer for the first time in seventh grade, I was hooked. It's was a clunky and teletype machine that barely do anything compared to the computer we have today. But it changed my life.

　　自從記事起，我就熱衷于接觸新事物、挑戰(zhàn)難題。可想而知，我上七年級時第一次坐在計算機前是何等著迷，如入無我之境。那是一臺鏘鏘作響的舊牌機器，和我們今天擁有的計算機相比，它相當遜色幾乎一無所用，但正是它改變了我的生活。

　　When my friend Paul Allen and I stared Microsoft 30 years ago, we had a vision of "a computer on every desk and in every home," which probably sounded a little too optimistic at a time when most computers were the size of refrigerators. But we believe that personal computer would change the world. And they have.

　　30 年前，我和朋友保羅·艾倫創(chuàng)辦微軟時，我們幻想實現(xiàn)"在每個家庭、在每張辦公桌上都有一臺計算機"，這在大多數(shù)的計算機體積如同冰箱的尺寸的年代，聽起來有點異想天開。但是我們相信個人電腦將改變世界。今天看來果真如此。

　　And after 30 years, I'm still as inspired by computers as I was back in seventh grade.

　　30年后，我仍然象上七年級的時候那樣為計算機而狂熱著迷。

　　I believe that computers are the most incredible tool we can use to feed our curiosity and inventiveness-to help us solve problems that even the smartest people couldn't solve on their own. Computer have transformed how we learn, giving kids everywhere a window into all of the world's knowledge. They're helping us build communicates around the things we care about and to stay close to the people who are important to us, no matter where they are.

　　我相信計算機是我們用來滿足好奇心及發(fā)明創(chuàng)造的最神奇的工具--有了它們的幫助，甚至是最聰明的人憑自身力量無法應對的難題都將迎刃而解。計算機已經(jīng)改變了我們的學習方式，為全球各地的孩子們開啟了一扇通向大千世界知識的窗戶。它可以幫我們圍繞我們關注的事物建立"群"，讓我們和那些對自己重要的人保持密切聯(lián)系，不管他們身處何方。

　　Like my friend Warren Buffett, I feel particularly lucky to do something every day I love to do. He calls it "tap-dancing to work". My job at Microsoft is as challenging as ever, but what makes me "tap-dancing to the work" is when we show people something new, like a computer that can recognize your handwriting or your speech, or one that can store a lifetime's worth of photos, and the say: "I didn't know you can do that with a pc!"

　　就像我的朋友沃倫·布非一樣，我為每天都能做自己熱愛的事情而感到無比幸運。他稱之為"踢踏舞工作"。我在微軟的工作永遠充滿挑戰(zhàn)，但使我一直堅持"踢踏舞工作"的是我們向人們展示某些新成果的那些時刻，當他們看到計算機能辨認筆跡、語音或者能存儲值得保留一輩子的照片時就會贊不絕口："我不敢相信個人電腦竟如此萬能"。

　　But for all the cool things that a person can do with a pc, there are lots other ways we can put our creativity and intelligence to work to improve our world. There are still far too many people in the world whose most basic needs go unmet. Every year, for example, millions of people die from diseases that are easy to prevent or treat in the developed world.

　　但是，除了能用電腦做出很酷的事情之外，我們還能通過許多別的方式在工作中發(fā)揮自己的創(chuàng)造力和聰明才智，以改善我們的世界。全球仍有許許多多的人連最基本的生存需求都未能解決。舉例來說，每年仍有數(shù)以萬計的人死于那些在發(fā)達國家易于預防和治療的疾病。

　　I believe that my own good fortune brings with it a responsibility tp give back to the world. My wife, Melinda, and I have committed to improving health and education in a way that can help as many people as possible.

　　我認為，我所擁有的大量財富也使我負有回饋社會的責任。我的妻子梅林達和我致力于為盡可能多的人改善健康和教育.

　　As a father, I believe that the death of a child in Africa is no less poignant. or tragic than the death of a child anywhere else. And that doesn't take much to make an immense difference in these children's lives.

　　作為一個父親，我認為，非洲孩子死去所引起的痛苦和悲傷絲毫不亞于任何其他的孩子的死亡;我認為，使這些孩子們的命運發(fā)生翻天地覆的變化并不費太大力氣。

　　I'm still very optimist, and I believe that progress on even the world's toughest problems is possible-and it's happening every day. We're seeing new drugs for deadly diseases, new diagnostic tools, and new attention paid to the health problems in the developing world.

　　我仍是一個堅定的樂觀主義者，我堅信即使世界級難題取得進展都是有可能的--其實每天也都在發(fā)生著這種事情。我們看到治療致命疾病的新藥、新的診斷器械不斷出現(xiàn)，而且，發(fā)展中國家的健康問題進入了人們的視野并日益得到重視。

　　I'm excited by the possibilities I see for medicine, for education and, of course, for technology. And I believe that through our natural inventiveness , creativity and willingness to solve tough problems, we're going to make some amazing achievements in all these areas in my lifetime.

　　我為醫(yī)藥、教育，當然還有技術發(fā)展的諸多前景而歡欣鼓舞。我相信，憑借人類與生俱來的發(fā)明創(chuàng)造能力和不畏艱難、堅忍不拔的品格，在我的有生之年里我們將在所有這些領域都創(chuàng)造出可喜的成就。
