If the world were a Village of 100 People
　　如果世界是個(gè)一百人的村落
　　David J.Smith/大衛(wèi).史密斯
　　Shelath Armstrory／謝拉.阿姆斯壯　
　　If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the exsting human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following:
　　如果我們把全世界的人口按照現(xiàn)有壓縮為一個(gè)１００人的村子，情況就會(huì)如同以下：
　　There would be:
　　57 Asians
　　21 Europeans
　　10 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
　　8 Africans
　　這個(gè)村子里有：
　　57人是亞洲人
　　21人是歐洲人
　　14人來(lái)自西半球的南、北美洲
　　8人是非洲人
　　52 would be female
　　48 would be male
　　52人是女性
　　48人是男性
　　70 would be non-while
　　30 would be white
　　70人是有色人種
　　30人是白人
　　70 would be non-christian
　　30 would be Christian
　　70人是非__徒
　　30人是_
　　89 would be heterosexual
　　11 would be homosexual
　　89人是異性戀者
　　11人是同性戀者
　　6 people would possess 59% of the entire world’s wealth
　　and all 6 would be from the United States.
　　6人擁有全世界59％的財(cái)富
　　而且這6人全是美國(guó)人
　　80 would live in substandard housing
　　70 would be unable to read
　　50 would suffer from malnutrition
　　1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth
　　80人的居住環(huán)境不達(dá)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)
　　70人是文盲
　　50人苦于營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良
　　1人瀕臨死亡邊緣；1人正要出生
　　1(yes, only 1) would have a college education
　?。?would own a computer
　　1人（是的，只有１人)會(huì)接受大學(xué)教育
　　1人擁有電腦
　　When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education becomes glaringly apparent.
　　透過(guò)這個(gè)壓縮圖來(lái)放眼我們的世界，就會(huì)明曉接納他人、諒解以及教育是何等重要。
　　The following is also something to ponder……
　　再?gòu)囊韵陆嵌葋?lái)想想看……
　　If you woke pup this morning with more health than illness……you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.
　　如果你早上醒來(lái)的時(shí)候健康無(wú)恙……那么，比起活不過(guò)這一周的百萬(wàn)人來(lái)說(shuō)，你真是幸運(yùn)多了。
　　If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation…you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
　　如果你未曾經(jīng)歷過(guò)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的危險(xiǎn)、入獄的孤獨(dú)、嚴(yán)刑的苦楚、饑餓的痛苦……那么，比起世界上５億人來(lái)，你真是幸運(yùn)多了。
　　If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep… you are richer than 75% of this world.
　　如果你冰箱里有食物，身上有衣服可穿，有屋篷遮蔽，有地方睡覺(jué)……那么，比起世界上７５％的人來(lái)，你真是富足多了。
　　If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in dish someplace…you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealth.
　　如果你銀行中有存款，錢(qián)包中也有錢(qián)，還能到某處消費(fèi)習(xí)菜……你便躋身在世界上最富有的８％人口當(dāng)中了。
　　If your parents are still alive and still married…you are very rare, even in the United Stated and Canada.
　　如果你的父母依然健在，而且還在一起生活的話……這可是非常難得的事，即使是在美國(guó)與加拿大。
　　Someone once said: What goes around comes around.
　　有人說(shuō)過(guò)：我所付出的終將會(huì)回歸。
　　So…
　　Work live you don’t need the money.
　　Love like you’ve never been hurt.
　　Dance like nobody’s watching.
　　Sing like nobody’s listening.
　　Live like it’s Heaven on Earth.
　　所以……
　　去工作時(shí)，猶如你不執(zhí)迷于金錢(qián)。
　　去愛(ài)他人，猶如你從未曾被傷害。
　　去舞蹈吧，猶如無(wú)人在一旁觀看。
　　去歌唱吧，猶如無(wú)人在一邊諦聽(tīng)。
　　好好地生活，猶如這里是人間樂(lè)土。
