任何事情都有正反两面
So, imagine youre standing on a streetanywhere in America and a Japanese man comes up to you and says,Excuse me, what is the name of thisblock?
好,假设你现在站在美国任何一个地方的街道上一个日本人走过来跟你说,打扰一下,请问这栋街区叫什么名字?
And you say, Im sorry, well, this isOak Street, thats Elm Street. This is 26th, thats 27th.
而你说,不知道。不过,这条是橡树街,那条是榆树街。这条是26街,那条是27街。
He says, OK, but what is the name ofthat block?
他说,哦,好的。那这栋街区叫什么名字呢?
You say, Well, blocks dont havenames. Streets have names; blocks are just the unnamed spaces in betweenstreets.
你说,街区是没有名字的。街道才有名字;街区只不过是街道之间的未命名的空间。
He leaves, a little confused anddisappointed.
他带着一点疑惑和失望离开了。
So, now imagine youre standing on astreet, anywhere in Japan, you turn to a person next to you and say,Excuse me, what is the name of thisstreet?
好,现在假设你正站在日本某个地方的街道上,你找到你旁边的一个人说,打扰一下,请问这条街道叫什么名字?
They say, Oh, well thats Block 17and this is Block 16.
他们说,哦,那栋是17街区,这栋是16街区。
And you say, OK, but what is the nameof this street?
你说,好的,那这条街道叫什么呢?
And they say, Well, streets donthave names. Blocks have names. Just look at Google Maps here. Theres Block 14,15, 16, 17, 18, 19. All of these blocks have names, and the streets are justthe unnamed spaces in between the blocks.
他们会说,啊,街道是没有名字的。街区才有名字。
看一下这张谷歌地图,这里有14,15,16,17,18,19街区。
这些街区都有名字。
街道只不过是街区之间那些未命名的空间。
And you say then, OK, then how do youknow your home address?
那你会说了,好吧,那你怎么写你的家庭住址呢?
He said, Well, easy, this is DistrictEight. Theres Block 17, house number one.
他说,嗨,简单,这里是第八区, 17街区,一号房屋。
You say, OK, but walking around theneighborhood, I noticed that the house numbers dont go in order.
你说,好吧,但是在邻里四周转转,我发现房屋号码不是按顺序排的。
He says, Of course they do. They goin the order in which they were built. The first house ever built on a block ishouse number one. The second house ever built is house number two. Third ishouse number three. Its easy. Its obvious.
他说,当然不是。他们是按他们建造的时间顺序来排序的。街区里第一所建造的房子是一号房屋。第二所建造的房子是二号房屋。第三所是三号房屋。很简单,很明显。
So, I love that sometimes we need to go tothe opposite side of the world to realize assumptions we didnt even know wehad, and realize that the opposite of them may also be true.
所以,我认为有时候我们需要去世界的另一端 去验证那些我们不以为意的偏见, 去验证我们偏见的反面可能也是正确的。
So, for example, there are doctors in Chinawho believe that its their job to keep you healthy. So, any month you arehealthy you pay them, and when youre sick you dont have to pay them becausethey failed at their job. They get rich when youre healthy, not sick.(Applause)
例如,中国的医生认为保持你的健康是他们的职责。所以,你健康的时候你得付钱给他们,而当你生病的时候你不需要付钱给他们,因为他们在他们的工作上失职了。他们在你健康而不是生病的时候赚钱。(掌声)
In most music, we think of theone as the downbeat, the beginning of the musical phrase: one, two,three, four. But in West African music, the one is thought of asthe end of the phrase, like the period at the end of a sentence. So, you canhear it not just in the phrasing, but the way they count off their music: two,three, four, one.
在大多数音乐中我们认为第一拍是强拍,是音阶的开始。一,二,三,四。但在非洲西部音乐中,第一拍被认为是音阶的结束,就像是句子末尾的句号。因此,你不但可以在音阶中,而且可以从他们打节奏的方法上听到。二,三,四,一。
And this map is also accurate. (Laughter)
而这张地图也是正确的。(笑声)
Theres a saying that whatever true thingyou can say about India, the opposite is also true. So, lets never forget,whether at TED, or anywhere else, that whatever brilliant ideas you have orhear, that the opposite may also be true. Domo arigato gozaimashita.
有个谚语说,无论你说什么关于印度的真理,反过来它也是正确的。所以,我们永远不要忘记,无论在TED,或其他任何地方,无论你有了或听到了什么精妙的思想,那反面可能也是正确的。谢谢。
《任何事情都有正反两面》观后感
我相信对于每个人来说,他都有自己的正反两面。就是人的好和坏,正面就是正善美,反面就是假丑恶。
我说一个故事你听你就会明白的。有一次,我在乘公共巴士的时候,我看见了一个男人趁巴士多人,偷偷地拿了一个乡村妇女的钱,那个妇女带着一个五六岁的孩子很可怜的样子。当那个妇女下了车的时候,发现自己的钱包不见了,就大哭了起来。那个男人就走过去问妇女怎么了。
那个妇女就告诉他,她的丈夫不要她了,她就把自己养的一头大猪卖了,刚刚奏够了钱。但是给人偷了,现在又不能去找丈夫又不能回家,所以就哭了。那个男人就叫她再仔细找一次看是不是放在别的地方去了。于是,那个男人趁妇女不留神的时候把钱放在妇女的孩子的衣袋里。当妇女找到钱的时候,她终于不哭了,笑了起来。那个男人还把自己的钱给了妇女。
看完这个故事后是不是觉得那个男人很愚蠢,竟偷了钱还把钱还了给妇女和给了自己的钱。但是我就觉得他还是有一颗善良的心,你说是不是。所以我们要珍惜好我们的正面。
