看英语小故事速记单词：演唱家阿格尼丝 Singer Agnes

From the top of the hill, you could get a perspective of a theatre. Agnes was a singer there. As a singer, she was perfection itself. Her performance was perfect. Agnes’s photographs often appeared on the periodicals. Perhaps she was so famous that Nazis wanted her to perform for Hitler’s birthday. The personnel manager called on her in person . He tried to persuade her to perform the contract and sing for Hitler. "with your permission, I will inform them now." he said. Agnes refused, "I will not permit it happen. This is my permanent decision." The manager said , "I have no right to interfere with your personal liberty. Last night, almost a hundred people perished in the struggle against the Nazi . lf you persist in that they will persecute you. All personnel hope you can agree to perform." Agnes was a woman with a strong personality. In spite of his efforts at persuasion, she didn’t agree. She replied , "I know that perfectly well. But don’t perplex the issue; it isn’t so complicated. What percentage of the audiences is Nazi? I must get the story in its proper perspectives. I am a Jew. I am a hundred percent in disagreement with you . This is my perpetual loyalty to my faith. The roses perfume the air in summer and perish in winter. I know it is the most difficult period of my life. But I’ d rather die as a rose."

从山顶你可以看到一座剧院的院景。阿格尼丝曾是那里的一名歌唱家。作为一名歌唱家，她自己就是完美的化身。她的表演是尽善尽美的。阿格尼丝的照片经常出现在期刊上面。也许她太有名了，纳粹想让她为希特勒的生日演出。人事经理亲自拜访她。他试图说服她履行合同为希特勒演唱。他说："得到你的允许的话，我立刻就通知他们。"阿格尼丝拒绝了："我不会允许这种事发生的。这是永久的决定。"经理说："我没有权利干涉你个人的自由。昨天夜里，大约一百人在同纳粹的抗争中消亡了。如果你坚持这样的话，他们会迫害你的。我们全体职员都希望你可以同意演出。"阿格尼丝是一名个性很强的女子。尽管经理为说服她而费尽努力，她还是没同意。她回答道："我知道那点很清楚。但不要使问题复杂化了。它没有那么复杂。观众中纳粹的百分率是多少？我必须从正确的观点来了解事情。我是一名犹太人。我百分之一百不同意此事。这是我对自己信仰永恒的忠诚。玫瑰在夏天使空气芳香，在冬天里凋谢。我知道这是我一生里最困难的时期，但我宁愿像玫瑰那样死去。"
