參考答案:If you can not be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley--but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can not be a tree.
If you can not be a bush, be a bit of the grass,
And some highway happier make;
If you can not be a muskie then just be a bass--
But the liveliest bass in the lake!
做最好的你
-----道格拉斯.马勒克
假如你不是山颠之松
那就做山谷矮树
在小溪边完善自我
假如你不是大树
那就做一从灌木
假如你不是灌木
那就加入芳草的行业
使漫漫长道充满欢乐
假如你不是大梭鱼
做鲈鱼也未尝不可
尽情遨游在美丽的湖泊
我们不能都做船长
水手必须有人来当
天生我才必有用
天下有伟业，世上几多事
千里之行，始于足下
假如你不是宽阔的坦荡
那就做崎岖的小径
假如不是白天的太阳
那就做夜晚的星星
胜负不由大小决定
做最好的你就是成功

We can not all be captains,we've get to be crew,
There's something for all of us here,
There's big work to do,and there's lesser to do,
And the task you must do is the near.
If you can not be a highway then just be a trial,
If you can not be the sun be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail--
Be the best of whatever you are!
