突破口语之独白(7):Tribute to New York City Firefighters颂歌献给纽约消防队员


There are no words to express what we all feel for you and the courage you have shown in the face of unbearable 1 loss. I salute 2 you and your brothers and sisters who get up every day and go to work knowing that it may be the last. Who among us could imagine the sacrifice you would be asked to bear on that terrible day? Only you know how it is to continue every day in your struggle to clear away the rubble- both physical and emotional.


没有语言能够表达我们对你们的感受,和你们脸上对那难以承受的损失所展现的勇气。我向你们及你们的兄弟姐妹们致敬,你们每天起早贪黑地工作,明白也许当天就是你们的末日。我们有谁能够想象在那可怕的一天你们所要求承担的牺牲?唯有你们自己知道,是怎样在一天一天的不断奋斗中,清除心灵与肉体的瓦砾。
