※ 引述《fox0922 (风中落叶)》之铭言：
: ※ 引述《platotle ()》之铭言：
: : 在小布演说中被高度赞扬，
: : 主要内容是说他在刚果的义行，没有忘记母国。
: : 更重要是说他的美国人民的表率。
: : 可以的话，请达人翻译那段话。
: 是这篇吗? http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/bk/bkn/4494234.html
: Rockets center Dikembe Mutombo, seated next to first lady Laura Bush and
: proudly flashing his familiar broad smile, was honored by President George
: Bush Tuesday at the State of the Union Address in Washington.
火箭队中锋 Mutombo 坐在第一夫人 Laura 的旁边，展现出灿烂的笑容，
他正在接受布希总统的表扬。
: Mutombo, working almost daily, raised $29 million (donating $15 million
: himself) for the construction of the Biamba Marie Mutombo Hospital and
: Research Center in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the
: Congo. Mutombo plans to open the hospital — Kinshasa's first new one in 40
: years — this summer. It is named for his mother, who died nine years ago
: when civil unrest and a curfew prevented her from getting to a hospital.
Mutombo 为 Biamba Marie Mutombo Hospital 和 Research Center 的建
立募得 2900 万美元，其中 1500 万美元是他自己捐赠的。这间位於刚果
民主共和国首都 Kinshasa 的医院，是该城市 40 年来第一家新的医院，
以 Mutombo母亲的名字来命名。他的母亲在九年前因无法顺利就医而过世
了。
: Mutombo was honored during Bush's speech as an example of "heroic kindness,
: courage and self-sacrifice."
: "When America serves others," Bush said, "we show the strength and generosity
: of our country.
: "The greatest strength we have is the heroic kindness, courage and
: self-sacrifice of the American people. You see this spirit often if you know
: where to look — and tonight we need only look above to the gallery.
布希总统在一场关於英雄气概、勇气、奉献精神的演讲中表达了对 Mutombo
的敬意，...... (下面一段无关紧要就不管了)
: "Dikembe Mutombo grew up in Africa, amid great poverty and disease. He came
: to Georgetown University on a scholarship to study medicine, but coach John
: Thompson took a look at Dikembe and had a different idea. Dikembe became a
: star in the NBA and a citizen of the United States. But he never forgot the
: land of his birth — or the duty to share his blessings with others. He built
: a brand-new hospital in his old hometown.
「Mutombo 生於非洲，在贫穷和充满疾病的环境之下长大，他来到我国乔
治城大学求学，原本主攻医学，随後被 Thompson 教练提拔成为一位 NBA
的球星，以及一位美国公民。但他从未忘了他出生的那片土地，以及为祖
国奉献心力的责任，他以成立医院的方式将他的爱散播在祖国的土地之上
。」
: "A friend has said of this good-hearted man: 'Mutombo believes that God has
: given him this opportunity to do great things.' And we're proud to call this
: son of the Congo a citizen of the United States of America."
「(他的)一位朋友曾说过：『Mutombo 相信上帝给了他一个机会去做些伟
大的事。』而我们今天感到非常荣幸，这位刚果之子是我们美国的一员。
」
: Said Mutombo in a phone interview afterward: "My heart was full of joy. I
: didn't know the president was going to say such great remarks. He raised me
: so high. I'm so happy. I'm so proud to be a citzen of the United States of
: America and to be recognized for my work. God is good to have put this work
: in my heart."
Mutombo 之後在电话访问中说道：「我感到满心欢喜，我并不知道总统先
生会给予我那样的评价，他让我感到开心极了！我很荣幸我身为美国的一
员，也很荣幸我所做的事被大家认可，感谢上帝！」
并没有全部照着翻...大概表达一下而已，
请大家将就着点看吧 XD
