VOA常速英语:Business of Welcome

Refuge was started because my husband and I moved here to this community and we fell in love with our neighbors.And really at the very heart, we just wanted other people to know the refugee community.We felt like this was a hidden jewel in Atlanta, and a great way to introduce a group of people to another group of people is coffee.
我的丈夫和我搬到这个社区，我们爱上了我们的邻居。实际上，我们只是想让其他人了解难民社区。我们觉得这是亚特兰大的一颗隐藏的宝石，把一群人介绍给另一群人的好方法就是喝咖啡。

There was a need for job training to prepare people who are new to this country,to get jobs that can help them to thrive, not just survive.
有必要进行职业培训，为新到这个国家的人做准备，找到一项工作找到能帮助他们生活，而不仅仅是生存。

We had people from all different religions and countries, and there is a lot of cultural differences.But because of this base value of welcome, we find that what that really does is it enriches us rather than challenges us.
我们有来自不同宗教和国家的人，有很多文化差异。但是，由于这种欢迎的基本价值，我们发现它其实是使我们精神层面富有了，而不只是一个对我们的挑战。

I went through the program which （is） like a year of job training,development skills which gave me a lot of experience to change too many things and learn the system here.I am very happy to help other refugees to improve their work skills and their language skills.I have learned so much about other cultures and there is so much beauty in them,and we miss out when we don’t know those people, and we just put them in a box and label them.
我经历了一年的工作培训，技能提高了，积累了很多经验，太多的东西被改变了，还有对于这个系统的学习。我很高兴帮助其他难民提高他们的工作技能和语言技能。我学到了很多关于其他文化的东西，其中有太多的美好，当我们不认识他们时候，我们就会错过很多，我们只是把它们放在一个盒子里，给它们贴上标签。

We’re in the business of welcome, and welcome is something every human being needs and is something every human being can give.So it’s a universal capacity and it’s a universal need.
我们在发展欢迎业务，欢迎是每个人都需要的东西，是每个人都能给予的东西。所以这是一个普遍的能力，这是一个普遍的需要。
