His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. 陪审团诸君:世上亲如手足的挚友可能会疏远叛离，反目成仇。含辛茹苦的父母面临的也许是儿女的忘恩负义。 Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from him perhaps when he needs it most. A mans reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. 有些人备受我们尊敬和爱戴，有些人是我们幸福之所依，声誉之所系；即便如此，他们也会背信弃义。人的钱财会失去，而且可能在急需之时偏偏散失殆尽。人的名誉也会因为一时的考虑不周而荡然无存。 The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. 当胜利与我们同行时，有些人往往向我们俯伏下跪，称颂致敬;但是当风云突变，失败的黑云压顶之时，最先落井下石的或许就是他们。 The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog. 在这个私欲横流的世界上，一个人可能拥有的绝对无私的朋友乃是他的狗。它从不抛弃主人,永不忘恩负义，也永不心怀鬼胎。 Gentlemen of the jury, a mans dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. 陪审团诸君:无论在主人富裕之曰还是贫困之时，也无论主人健康无恙还是病入膏肓，守卫在他身边的始终是他的狗。 He will sleep on the cold ground where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely,if only he may be near his masters side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. 只要它能够贴近于主人，它就宁愿蜷伏于冰冷的地面，任寒风刺骨，冰雪袭身。它愿意亲吻主人的手，即便主人并未施与食物。它会舔舐主人在与这个粗暴的世界奋战中留下的伤口和痛处。它守候着睡梦中的赤贫如洗的主人就如同守候着君主王侯一般o When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens. 当所有的朋友都弃主人而去，唯有它仍留守在主人身
