李娜退役告别信(双语全文)

2014-09-20来源:和谐英语
My contributions to the growth of the sport in China are very special to me. But I don’t want to stop here. Together with IMG, my management company, we are putting together various plans on how we will continue to grow the sport of tennis in China. These plans include opening the Li Na Tennis Academy, which will provide scholarships for the future generation of Chinese tennis stars. I will also stay involved in the Right to Play, an organization dedicated to helping underprivileged children overcome challenges through sport. My philanthropic work will expand in scope as I continue to dedicate myself to helping those in need. What was once just a dream in China today is a reality。

能为中国体育发展做出微薄的贡献,对我自己而言也有特殊的意义。就此,我不会停歇,我将和我的经纪公司一起,制定各项促进中国网球发展的计划。包括开办 “李娜网球学校”,学院将会为下一代的中国网球明星提供奖学金。另外,我也会参与“Right to Play”儿童乐益会公益组织,致力于帮助生活贫困和身处困境的儿童和青少年,帮助他们通过体育的力量战胜挑战。随着我从事的慈善事业的继续,涉及范围也会扩展,曾经的梦想如今也会成为现实。

On a personal side, I look forward to starting a new chapter of my life, hopefully having a family and reconnecting with those I did not have the luxury of spending a lot of time with while playing. I can’t wait to revisit all the amazing places I played tennis in and see the world through a new set of eyes. I look forward to slowing down and living my life at a new, slower, relaxed pace。

个人方面,我非常期待开始我人生新的篇章。我希望能多花一点时间和家人在一 起,以前打球的时候这些事件都是很奢侈的,现在我想尽力去弥补我的家人。我很想再去一遍那些我曾经打过球的地方,这一次不用比赛,而是用一双不同的眼睛看看这些可爱的地方。我愿意在一个让人放松的地方安静的开始和家人的新生活。

Tennis is an individual sport and as players, our job is to spend a lot of time focusing on ourselves. But no player can ever become a champion alone and nobody knows this better than me. There isn’t enough space here to thank everyone who has travelled on my journey with me and contributed to my success. But I must thank those that have stuck with me through the highs and the lows and have helped me become the person that I am today。

网球是一项个人运动,作为网球运动员,我们的工作就是花很多时间关注自己的状态。但是,没有人比我更清楚,没有一个运动员能够只靠一个人的力量成为冠 军。这里由于篇幅有限,不能对陪伴我走过职业生涯、对我的成功付出汗水的人们一一表示感谢,但是我必须感谢那些无论高潮还是低估都陪伴着我的人,是你们成就了今天的我。

When I started playing tennis, I was just a neighborhood kid with an after-school hobby, not realizing what magical journey lay ahead of me. If I only knew what a vehicle the sport of tennis, along with my success, would become for my beloved China. While my journey hasn’t been easy, it has been rewarding. I’ve seen change happening in front of my eyes, young girls picking up tennis racquets, setting goals, following their hearts and believing in themselves. I hope that I’ve had the opportunity to inspire young women all over China to believe in themselves, to set their goals high and pursue them with vengeance and self-belief。

我最开始打网球的时候,只是一个邻家小女孩,打网球只是我的课余爱好,我完全没有想到我面前有如此神奇和美好的网球之旅。当时谁能想到网球对于我挚爱的祖国意味着什么呢?即便我的职业旅程并不是一帆风顺,但是它还是值得的。我看见变化就在我眼前发生,小女孩拿起网球拍,制定目标,跟随她的内心并且相信自己。我希望我的经历和故事能够激励更多的中国年轻女孩,让她们相信自己,为自己设立目标并永不言败。

Whether you want to be a tennis player, a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher or a business leader, I urge you to believe in yourself and follow your dream. If I could do it, you can too! Be the bird that sticks out. With hard work, your dreams will come true。

无论你想成为网球运动员、医生、律师、老师还是一个商人,我都希望你相信自己,追随自己的梦想,坚持到底。我能做到,你也可以。只要努力,最终一定会实现自己的梦想!
