解个闷儿挑战一下英文听力如何? We Shall Fight on the Beaches 移花接木2022-07-26 03:28:25
温斯顿丘吉尔被认为不是有史以来最有影响力的演讲者之一，而是最有影响力的演讲者。很少有人知道，他患有口吃，这是一种众所周知的难以克服的语言障碍。
有一次，丘吉尔在议会发表讲话，讲话有些糊涂，语无伦次。坐在对面长椅上的一位相当不吸引人的反对党女议员对丘吉尔说：“先生，你喝醉了！”。他回答说：“夫人，这可能是真的，但到了早上，我会清醒，而你仍然很丑陋”。
他的战时演讲： "We Shall Fight on the Beaches", 是他最鼓舞人心的演讲之一
在 00:52秒 当他说到 “Ahnyradawaweegointrytodo, thaisresolvuminmajsee government”
我只能WTF了, 确实太难听清楚了,丘吉尔, 我还是感觉到他的speech disorder...
这里是丘吉尔演讲全文: "We Shall Fight on the Beaches",
Full text:
“When Napoleon lay at Boulogne for a year with his flat-bottomed boats and his Grand Army, he was told by someone, "there are bitter weeds in England." There are certainly a great many more of them since the British Expeditionary Force returned. Sir I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government-every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation.
The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.
We shall go on to the end,
we shall fight in France,
we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air,
we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
we shall fight on the beaches,
we shall fight on the landing grounds,
we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
we shall fight in the hills;
we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”
