以“The Person I Admire Most”为题,写一篇英语短文

如题所述

The Person I Admire Most

There are quite a few people that I admire greatly, but the one that comes first on my list is Abraham Lincoln, the great American emancipator. Although he was born poor, he worked hard and honestly, and eventually became President of the United States.
A part from the many fine qualities that Lincoln had, I admire him most because he dared to do what he thought was right at a time when his beliefs were very unpopular with many people. He also had infinite patience and tolerance for those who disagreed with him, and bore their discourtesy toward him with admirable restraint. He also had the manliness to forgive his opponents. When the Civil War ended, he treated his erstwhile enemies with great generosity. The words which are carved on the walls of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. were taken from his famous Second Inaugural Address and begin with he phrases which I shall never forget: “With malice toward none, with charity for all…”

我最敬佩的人

我敬佩的人有很多,但是我表上列的第一个是亚伯拉罕.林肯,美国伟大的解放者。虽然他生下来就很穷,他努力、诚实地工作,终于成为美国总统。
除去林肯的许多优良品德不谈,他最令我钦佩的原因是,只要他认为是对的,即使他的信念还未普遍为人接受,他就敢去做。他对那些不赞同他的人,有着无比的耐心和宽容,克制自己忍受他们对他的无礼,令人敬佩。他也有男性气概原谅他的反对者。内战结束后,他对待以前的敌人无比宽大。刻在华盛顿特区林肯纪念堂上的几句话,是从他著名的第二次就职演说是摘录出来的。开头的几句话,我永远不会忘记:“不要对任何人怀有恶意,要博爱世人……。”
