英语翻译
It's been almost ten years since I first ran for political office.I was thiry-five at the time,four years out of law school,recently married,and generally impatient with life.A seat in the Illinois Legislature had opened up,and several friends suggested that I run,thinking that my work as a civil rights lawyer,and contacts from my days as a community organizer,would make me a viable candidate.After discussing it with my wife,I entered the race and proceeded to do what every first time candidate does:I talked to anyone who would listen .I went to block club meetings and church socials,beauty shops and barber-shops.If two guys were standing on a corner,I would cross the street to hand them campaign literaturel.And everywhere I went,I'd get some version of the same two questions."Where'd yo get that funny name?' And then:"You seem like a nice enough guy.Why do you want to go into something dirty and nasty like politics?"
英语翻译It's been almost ten years since I first ran for politic
从我开始参加政界竞选,至今已近十年.那时,我才35岁,从哈佛法学院刚毕业四年就结了婚,迫不及待地开始了新的生活.正好伊利诺伊州立法委员会有个空位,一些朋友就建议我去竞选.他们觉得我作为一名民权事务律师,又是社区负责人,社交广泛,候选人的位子唾手可得.和妻子商量后,我参加了竞选.像所有第一次参加竞选的人一样,我不放弃任何一次谈话的机会.我去过街区俱乐部的集会,参加教会活动,还去过美容院和理发店.如果见到街头拐角有两位交谈的人,我便会走过马路,递给他们竞选宣传册.无论我到哪里,我常常会遇到类似的两个提问.
"你这滑稽的名字哪儿来的?"
接着又是:"看起来你挺不错嘛,为什么要趟政治这滩浑水?"
