英文精美短文什麼是真正的好文章﹐讀Lincoln的Gettysburg Address
Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent,
a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that
all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or
any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on
a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of
that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we
should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we can not consecrate-we can
not hallow-this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here,
have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world
will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget
what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here
to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly
advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining
before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that
cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here
highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain-that this nation,
under God, shall have a new birth of freedom-and that government of the people,
by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth文摘时间: 2013-05-31 05:46:32 编辑: xianneizhu
