本段中的banktupt是比喻意,值得注意,如:cripple, prevail, architect。(The society is morally banktupt. Stage fright crippled him.)
in the great vaults of opportunity里的vaults用的很应景,可以用别的词,但它符合意向,如经济学人里的 the brake on the demand of cars in China的brake 。
to cash This check--a check that will...重复
the riches of freedom and the security of justice 与之前the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination类似的结构,很漂亮。(a hard act to follow)
dark, desolate 押头韵
to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood
这两个比喻的对比很形象,也很容易有画面感。
注意children的发音。
