If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition—wealth, distinction, control over one’s destiny—must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambition’s behalf.If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared; and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them.In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up ambition as an ideal.What is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition—if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents.There is heavy note of hypocrisy in this, a case of closing the barn door after the horses have escaped with the educated themselves riding on them.
选项
答案
抱负若要受到重视,那它所带来的回报——财富、荣誉以及对命运的掌握——一定要被认为值得为之做出牺牲。抱负的传统若要激发活力,那它就应当得到人们的广泛认可;尤其应该得到那些受人羡慕之士的高度重视。特别是应得到那些受过良好教育的人们的高度重视。可正是那些受过良好教育的人却奇怪地声称,他们已经不再把抱负当作理想。但奇怪是他们已从豪情壮志中获得了很大好处——如果不是自己的壮志雄心,就是他们父母的和祖父母的。这当中有很强的虚伪成分,如同马跑后再关上马厩的门一样——但受过良好教育的人却正骑在那些逃跑的骏马上。
