A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
一代
Generation
Civil rights happened because youth got involved. The youth stood up and helped to break the pattern that their parents had got accustomed to living. The next generation has to take that stand for whatever it is, socially, that they are involved in.
民权的产生是因为年轻人的参与。年轻人站了起来，帮助打破了他们父母已经习惯的生活模式。下一代人必须坚持他们所参与的社会活动。
Look, you've got a generation of people coming along who are going to form their own new relationship with the idea of supporting the causes that they care about or changing the world. And these people are not going to do it the way our parents do it.
听着，这一代的人正在形成他们自己的新关系他们的想法是支持他们所关心的事业或者改变世界。这些人不会像我们的父母那样做。
Thought once awakened does not again slumber; unfolds itself into a System of Thought; grows, in man after man, generation after generation, - till its full stature is reached, and such System of Thought can grow no farther, but must give place to another.
思想一旦觉醒就不再沉睡;展开成一个思维系统;这种思想体系只能在一个又一个人、一代又一代的身上生长，直到达到它的高度为止。
People are naming it the Third Wave, the Information Age, etc. but I would say those are basically technological descriptions, and this next shift is not about technology - although obviously it will be influenced and in some cases expressed by technologies.
人们把它命名为第三次浪潮，信息时代，等等，但我想说的是，这些基本上都是技术描述，而下一个转变不是关于技术——尽管它显然会受到影响，在某些情况下会被技术表达出来。
The fact is that ours is the first generation that can look disease and extreme poverty in the eye, look across the ocean to Africa, and say this, and mean it. We do not have to stand for this. A whole continent written off - we do not have to stand for this.
事实上，我们这一代人是第一代能够正视疾病和极端贫困的人，能够跨越大洋来到非洲，并且说到做到。我们不需要忍受这些。整个大陆都被一笔勾销了——我们不必忍受这种情况。
I think a lot of people of my generation are discomfited by the assertion of neutrality in the mainstream media, this idea that they're the voice of God. I think it's just honest to say, yes, you know where I'm coming from but you can fact-check anything I say.
我想我们这一代的很多人都对主流媒体的中立立场感到困惑，他们认为自己是上帝的声音。我想说实话，是的，你知道我来自哪里，但你可以核实我说的任何话。
It took us a long time to find out that we had been lied to by our parents' generation. The moralities that were followed during our parents' generation were basically arbitrary. This caused a rift between the two generations, which was brought on by the beatniks.
我们花了很长时间才发现我们被父母那一代欺骗了。我们父母那代人遵循的道德规范基本上是武断的。这导致了两代人之间的裂痕，这是由垮掉的一代带来的。
The next generation of innovators, who need neutrality the most, are not at the bargaining table. They're hard at work in their labs or classrooms, dreaming of the next big thing, and hoping that the Internet is as open to them as it was to the founders of Google.
最需要中立的下一代创新者不在谈判桌上。他们在实验室或教室里努力学习，梦想着下一件大事，希望互联网像谷歌的创始人一样对他们开放。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。

Each generation takes the earth as trustees. We ought to bequeath to posterity as many forests and orchards as we have exhausted and consumed.

Every generation tries to put its doctrine on a high shelf where the children can not reach it.
每一代人都试图把自己的学说放在孩子们够不着的高处。
When the generation after me started getting on the cut, a lot of them would call me over to hang out or go jam and scratch and they were always separate from each other.
当我之后的那一代人开始剪头发的时候，他们中的很多人会打电话给我，叫我出去玩，或者去果酱和挠痒痒，他们总是彼此分开。
Every generation renews itself in its own way; there's always a reaction against whatever is standard.
每一代人都以自己的方式更新自己;无论标准是什么，总会有人反对。
