【正文】 第一篇：奧巴馬2013就職演講視頻[最終版]當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間21日中午，第57屆美國總統(tǒng)就職典禮在首都華盛頓國會(huì)大廈西側(cè)舉行，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)發(fā)表連任就職演講，呼吁美國民眾團(tuán)結(jié)一致，抓住機(jī)遇。80多萬觀禮的嘉賓從全美各地蜂擁而至，他們都期盼著能夠見證這一歷史性的時(shí)刻，同時(shí)對(duì)奧巴馬總統(tǒng)的第二任期也充滿了期待。vice president biden, justice, members of the united states congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens: 副總統(tǒng)拜登、首席法官、美國國會(huì)議員、尊敬的客人和美國同胞們：each time we gather to inaugurate a president we

us exceptionalis our allegiance to an idea articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago: 每次聚在一起舉行總統(tǒng)就職儀式時(shí)，我們總能見證到憲法經(jīng)久不衰的力量。我們肯定民主的承諾。我們回憶起，團(tuán)結(jié)這個(gè)國家的力量不是皮膚的顏色、所信奉的教條或名字的起源。讓我們與眾不同、成為美國人的是源自對(duì)一個(gè)理念的效忠，它早在2個(gè)多世紀(jì)前就在一份宣言中有過明確表述：“we hold these truths to be selfevident, that all men are created equal。that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights。that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”“我們認(rèn)為這一真理是不言自明的：人人生而平等，并由造物主賦予了某些不可轉(zhuǎn)讓的權(quán)利，其中包括生命、自由和追求幸福的權(quán)利。”today we continue a neverending journey to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our history tells us that while these truths may be selfevident, they’ve never been selfexecuting。that while freedom is a gift from god, it must be secured by his people here on earth.(applause.)the patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a gave to us a republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each

，為了縮小這些文字意義與當(dāng)今現(xiàn)實(shí)間的差距，我們將繼續(xù)這場沒有盡頭的旅程。因?yàn)闅v史告訴我們，雖然這些真理也許不言自明，但它們從不會(huì)自動(dòng)生效；雖然自由是來自上帝的禮物，但它必須由地球上的子民們?nèi)幦　?776年的愛國者們不是為了用少數(shù)人的特權(quán)或?yàn)鹾现姷姆▌t取代國王的暴政而戰(zhàn)斗。他們給予我們的是一個(gè)共和國、一個(gè)民有、民治、民享的政府，并委托每一代人去捍衛(wèi)我們的建國理念。and for more than two hundred years, we ，我們一直如此。through blood drawn by lash and blood drawn by sword, we learned that no union founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive halfslave and made ourselves anew, and vowed to move forward ，我們學(xué)到，沒有哪個(gè)建立在自由平等原則上的聯(lián)盟能夠容忍半奴隸半自由的狀態(tài)。我們重塑自我，并發(fā)誓一同前進(jìn)。我們一同決定，一個(gè)現(xiàn)代經(jīng)濟(jì)體需要鐵路和高速路來促進(jìn)旅游和商務(wù)，需要學(xué)校和大學(xué)來培訓(xùn)我們的工人。我們一同發(fā)現(xiàn)，一個(gè)自由市場只有當(dāng)規(guī)則能確保公平競爭時(shí)才能夠繁榮。together, we resolved that a great nation must care for the vulnerable, and protect its people from life’s worst hazards and ，一個(gè)偉大的國家必須照顧弱者，并保護(hù)他們不受到生活最惡劣的傷害和不幸。through it all, we have never relinquished our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed to the fiction that all society’s ills can be cured through government celebration of initiative and enterprise, our insistence on hard work and personal responsibility, these are constants in our ，我們從未放棄過對(duì)中央集權(quán)的質(zhì)疑，也未曾對(duì)光靠政府就能解決所有社會(huì)弊病的幻想有過屈服。對(duì)首創(chuàng)精神和進(jìn)取精神的歌頌、對(duì)勤勞和責(zé)任的堅(jiān)持已經(jīng)成為我們性格中無法改變的一部分。but we have always understood that when times change, so must we。that fidelity to our founding principles requires new responses to new challenges。that preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective the american people can no more meet the 但是我們一直懂得，當(dāng)時(shí)代改變時(shí)，我們也必須做出相應(yīng)的改變：忠于建國原則需要我們以新的方式應(yīng)對(duì)新的挑戰(zhàn)；保證個(gè)人自由最終需要我們采取集體行動(dòng)。因?yàn)闆]有哪個(gè)美國人能獨(dú)自滿足當(dāng)今世界的需求，就像美國士兵無法獨(dú)自迎戰(zhàn)擁有槍彈和民兵的法西斯主義。沒有哪一個(gè)人能為我們孩子的未來培訓(xùn)所有的數(shù)學(xué)和理科教師，或是通過修路聯(lián)網(wǎng)和建立研究型實(shí)驗(yàn)室給我們海岸帶來更多就業(yè)和商業(yè)活動(dòng)。作為一個(gè)國家、一個(gè)民族，我們現(xiàn)在比以往任何時(shí)候都有必要團(tuán)結(jié)一致，共同去做這些事。this generation of americans has been tested by crises that steeled our resolve and proved our decade of war is now ending.(applause.)an economic recovery has begun.(applause.)america’s possibilities are

shoulders of a rising middle know that america thrives when every person can find independence and pride in their work。when the wages of honest labor liberate families from the brink of are true to our creed when a little girl born into the bleakest poverty knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else, because she is an american。she is free, and she is equal, not just in the eyes of god but also in our own.(applause.)因?yàn)?，作為人民的我們知道，只有少?shù)人過得好，而越來越多人生活無法好轉(zhuǎn)時(shí)，我們的國家就無法成功。我們相信，美國的繁榮必須建立在一個(gè)愈加龐大的中產(chǎn)階級(jí)寬闊的肩膀上。我們知道，只有當(dāng)每個(gè)人都能在自己的工作中找到獨(dú)立和自豪，只有當(dāng)誠實(shí)勞動(dòng)所換得的工資能將家人從困苦的邊緣解救出來時(shí)，美國才能繁榮。當(dāng)一個(gè)出身貧寒的小女孩意識(shí)到，因?yàn)樽约菏敲绹?，她不論在上帝、還是大家眼中都是自由平等的，知道自己和其他人一樣有機(jī)會(huì)獲得成功。只有這樣，我們才是堅(jiān)守了信條。we
