2、 it off. She would come home late, fix us dinner, listen to our stories, and put us all to bed before she had any time to herself. We never thought much of it at the time, but it s obvious now that we were her life. I remember asking her why she made so many sacrifices for us, and her answer was ama

3、zing, “Your success will be my greatest achievement. ”From that day on my attitude and actions changed. I had the strength and the courage to deal with problems instead of turning away. I wanted to push myself to new heights. She came to every competition and was always the first person at the finis

9、n Summerfield, Louisiana. I didnt see my circumstance as an obstacle, even though we didnt even have a real toilet in the house. I saw my life more as a card that had been dealt to me and I tried to make the most of it.童年时代的我住在位于路易斯安那州萨墨菲尔德的一间简陋的以铁皮为屋顶的 房子里，有 8 个兄弟姐妹，连一个像样的厕所都没有。但是，我并没有把这样的 家庭环境看成是一

10、个障碍， 而是把它当作发到自己手里的一张牌， 我所做的努力 是要让这张牌发挥出它最大的用处。I was the youngest of five boys and also had four sisters who had to pull together and take care of each other. Dad wasnt around, so I never knew him well. He committed suicide when I was three years old, leaving Mom with the job of raising and providing

11、 for nine kids. She worked at a sawmill running a forklift for fifty dollars a week and had another job at a poultry plant. She was a very hard worker, and in order to make ends meet, she hardly ever rested.我是家里 5 兄弟中最小的男孩子，还有 4 个相依为命的姐妹。父亲已经不在 人世，他在我 3 岁的时候就自杀了，我对他几乎没有什么印象。父亲死后，抚养 9个孩子的重担就落在了母亲的肩上。

12、母亲是锯木厂里开叉车的工人，每星期有 50 美元的收入，此外，她在家禽加工厂还有一份差事。我母亲是个非常吃苦耐 劳的女人，为了养家糊口，她拼命工作，从不休息。My mom believed in doing all she could do to take care of her responsibilities, so no matter what, she never asked for a handout. You can imagine; we kids didtnget what we wanted, but we always got the things we needed. W

13、ith my mom as my example, I learned that hard work is the best way to get what you want.她坚信只要自己努力就一定能够养活全家，所以她从不接受任何施舍。你可 以想象我们姊妹兄弟的生活状况： 尽管从来买不起自己想要的东西， 但是日常生 活的必需品总是能够得到满足。 从母亲身上， 我懂得了勤奋是获得一切的最佳途 径。While growing up, I was surrounded with temptations to do negative things like drugs, alcohol and al

14、l that. I chose not to go there, even as a little boy, I knew I was going to be successful. Some people take that to be cocky or conceited, but I wast n going to let anybody tell me that I couldnt do whatever I set out to do.随着年龄的增长，我逐渐遇到各种不良行为的诱惑，比如吸毒、酗酒，凡此 种种。我从不去那些地方， 因为我从小就相信自己长大以后一定能大有作为。 有 些人将

15、我的这种想法视为骄傲或自负， 但我不这么认为。 只要我确定了自己想做 的事情，就不允许别人说我做不到。Of course, I dreamed about what I wanted to be when I grew up. At first, I wanted be a state trooper, then I wanted to be in the Special Forces. After a while, I decided that I wanted to drive eighteen-wheelers. There was even a period of time that

16、I wanted to be in construction. I wanted to play football in high school; in fact, I still do. But regardless of what I chose, I wanted to make my brothers, sisters and mom proud of me - not only by being successful in what I chose to do, but also as a person who could be looked up to for the right

17、reasons.当然，我也梦想过长大以后想做什么。起初，我想当国民警卫队员，还想 过进特种兵部队。后来，我想当一名售装箱大卡车司机。还有一段时间，我甚至 想当一名建筑工人。上高中的时候，我喜爱美式足球，直到现在我还时常玩玩。 但不管我选择做什么，我的最终目的是要让母亲和兄弟姐妹们为我骄傲-不仅要为我在事业上获得成功而骄傲，更要为我成为了一个受人尊重的人而骄傲。Surprising as it might seem, basketball wasnt in my plans. One day, my mom cut a rim off an old water barrel and then h

18、eld it up for me to throw an old rubber ball through. By junior high, I started playing basketball on a teamI loved to peteThere was a positive high I got by going out and playing against other people and working hard to win. For me, it paid off. I just let my success in basketball take its course b

19、ut I always put the effort in every day. No matter what Ive done, some people wait for my down fall, saying, “Karl Malone cant do it.”Instead of letting people like that get to me, they are actually my motivation and I continue to prove them wrong every single day. I try to do the best job I can in

20、a positive way on and off the court. I realize that no matter what Im dealing with, theres somebody else out there who has it a little bit worse off. I ve been there. And I know that without continued hard work, I could be there again.也许听起来会有些令人诧异，篮球当时并没有被列在我的人生计划中。记 得有一天，母亲把一只旧水桶沿边剪下一个圈来，为我举着，让我投橡皮

21、球玩。 到了初中，我开始在篮球队里打球。 我喜爱打比赛，它给我一种快感， 与人比拼， 为了获胜，我吃苦耐劳，常代表学校出去比赛。对我来说，这叫做 天道酬勤 。 我并不刻意去争抢成功和荣誉， 但是我的的确确每天都在为此付出努力。 不管我 怎么做，有些人却并不希望看到我成功。他们说：卡尔马龙不行。我一点儿也 不计较那些不中听的话，相反，它们倒成了我拼搏的动力。不论赛场内外，我总 是努力做到最好，每一天以自己的实际行动证明他们的话是错误的。我也发现，不管我怎么样应对， 身边总有一些人是在退步。 我也曾走过下坡路， 所以我明白 不进则退的道理。I am grateful for the life I

22、ve enjoyed as a basketball star. But when I see these shirts that say“Basketball is life,”I think Yeah, right! It is not life. It can be exciting. But the important thing about basketball is that it gives me a way to do good things for others as I move through this journey called life作为一个篮球明星， 我很感谢生

23、活赐予我的这一切。 当我看见这些 T 恤衫上 写着篮球就是生命 时，我要说 是啊，对啊 。但其实篮球并不等于生命，尽管 它很刺激。 篮球能够让我在这段所谓 “生命”的旅程中为别人做一些好事， 我认为 这才是最重要的。Success is really about choosing right from wrong, making a positive contribution to the world around you and valuing the things that are really important - like family and friends.成功其实意味着弃恶扬善

24、， 为你身边的人们做点好事以及珍惜一切珍贵的东 西，比如家人和朋友While everyone else was looking to popular atheles, actors and musicians as positive role models, my mom was my inspiration, and she continues to be all these years later. She taught me that hard work never killed anybody. My mom is my hero. She, my family and friend

25、s bring me more joy than anything else in life does.当人们都去选择某个著名的运动员、演员或者歌星作为自己崇拜的偶像时， 我却选择母亲作为我的偶像。 她是我全部灵感的来源， 这些年来一直如此。 她教 导我说，勤奋工作从来不会累死人，她是我心目中的英雄。母亲、我的家庭以及 朋友所给予我的快乐是生活中其他任何事物所不能及的。At the end of my life, I don t want to be remembered as the kind of person who just sat on his rear end and said“,

26、 Ive made it.”I dont ever want to have to say that I didnt give it everything that Ive got. Sure there are days that I dont feel likework ing hard but I do it any way, ecause thats who I am.By Karl Malone在我离开人世的那一天, 我不愿意在人们记忆中是这样一种人, 这种人只是 一屁股坐在那里对人说： “我功成名就了 ”,也永远不想说对我所取得的一切没有 尽到自己最大的努力。当然,我也有过放松懈怠
