It was much more than a tiny drop of water. The streams overflowed and the rivers broke through their banks causing a wall of water to destroy those things. 这时有人说等一等!还有比那一小滴水更可怕的呢!溪流已经溢出了河岸，马上就要将河坝冲垮啦! Yes, but it was made up of tiny drops of water. Raindrops which together wore a path right through my yard with little effort. One drop, then two,then thousands, millions and all together they changed the world , our world. 是的，模流只是由小小的水滴组成，却有如此强大的力量。就像聚集的雨水能毫不费力地将我院子里的小路冲毁一样。起初是一滴、两滴，而后逐渐变成几千滴、几万滴，这些凝聚在一起的雨滴最终改变了世界，改变了整个人类的世界。 Cant you see the significance in that? 你领会到其中的含义了吗? I want to change the world. I am tired, worn out from weeping at the sight of still another death not just on the field of battle laid out by warriors, but in the streets of every city, in the fields of the impoverished, desolate reaches of the world. They are dying in my country and yours by bullet, by starvation, disease, arrogance, stupidity and pride. 我想改变世界，不仅仅是因为常常看到战场中牺牲的战士，更是因为在世界上那些贫穷、荒凉的地区，甚至在每个城市的每个角落，到处都有人死亡。人类正在战争、饥饿、疾病，以及人性的傲慢、愚蠢和自大中濒临灭亡。 A tiny drop of water gave me hope. 然而，一小滴水给了我希望。 I am but one drop in the sea of humanity, but like the rain I can join together with others and wash away the hatred and pain I anguish over. One drop, then two, then thousands, millions and all together we can change the world. our world. 我自己不正是我们人类这个大海洋中的一小滴水吗?我完全可以团结身边的人，像雨水那样凝聚起来，汇成一股强大的力量，最终把我们所有的仇恨和痛苦通通冲走
