提示：
4 `% h, X% g4 Y; a作者戴克（1852-1933）是美国演说家及作家。其文笔之跳跃，思维之鲜活，毕现于字里行间。本文让读者进入这样的境界：人生如旅途，世人皆过客。要歇下脚步，必须先走完全程。也许，我们会迷失方向，走了弯路，甚至，反向而行。但有一点是肯定的，我们一直在努力着。人在旅途！我们注定一生勇往直前，永不停歇。
5 G6 `& o, C  T8 k6 p$ F! h翻译下列原文：
Are you nearer to your port today than you were yesterday? Yes,－you must be a little to some port or other; for since your ship was first launched upon the sea of life, you have never been still for a single moment; the sea is too deep, you could not find an anchorage if you would; there can be no pause until you come into port.
译文：
相比昨天，今天的你是否离港湾更近一些了呢？是的，－－你一定离某个港湾更近了；因为，自从你驶入人生的海洋，你的航船便没有片刻停歇；海洋是如此深邃，你根本无法找到抛锚停泊之处；因此，在驶入港湾之前，你不得停下脚步。
