Jeffrey Epstein and the Crisis of Human Development: Why the Scandal Is Not the Real Issue

HSK 等级高亮 · Highlight by HSK Level
wǒ我kàn看guò过yí gè一个diàn shì jié mù电视节目:liǎng两wèi位nǚ女yǎn yuán演员ràng让guān zhòng观众xuǎn选nán rén男人。

I watched a TV show where two actresses asked the audience to choose a man.

yí gè一个shì是pǔ tōng普通yín háng银行zhí yuán职员,yǒu shàn友善ài爱tī踢qiú球;lìng另yí gè一个chuān穿dé得hěn很shuài帅,shuō说zì jǐ自己hěn很yǒu qián有钱,hái还hé和hēi bāng黑帮yǒu有guān xì关系。

One was an ordinary bank clerk, friendly and fond of playing football; the other was well-dressed, claimed to be wealthy, and connected to the mafia.

hòu lái后来hěn很duō多nǚ shēng女生jī hū几乎dōu都xuǎn选le了“hēi bāng黑帮”nà那wèi位,dà jiā大家xiào笑dé得hěn很kāi xīn开心。

Later, many women almost all chose the 'mafia' man, and everyone laughed happily.

dàn但zhè这ràng让rén人xiǎng dào想到:wǒ men我们zuǐ嘴shàng上shuō说zhòng shì重视shàn liáng善良hé和chéng shí诚实,zuò做xuǎn zé选择shí时què却cháng常bèi被“yǒu quán yǒu shì有权有势”xī yǐn吸引。

But this makes one think: we say we value kindness and honesty, yet when making choices, we are often attracted by 'power and influence.'

jié fú lǐ · ài pō sī tǎn杰弗里·爱泼斯坦duō nián多年zuò做ér tóng儿童xìng jiāo yì性交易,méi tǐ媒体cháng常zhǐ只guān xīn关心shuí谁hé和tā他yǒu有guān xì关系,què却hū lüè忽略le了gèng更dà大de的wèn tí问题:quán lì权力ràng让rén人táo bì逃避chéng fá惩罚,dào dé道德huì会bēng huài崩坏。

Jeffrey Epstein engaged in child sex trafficking for many years; the media often only cared about who was connected to him, ignoring the bigger problem: power allows people to escape punishment, and morality collapses.

měi guó美国tiān zhǔ jiào huì天主教会yě也fā shēng发生guò过shén fù神父cháng qī长期shāng hài伤害ér tóng儿童,hái还bèi被jī gòu机构yǎn gài掩盖。

The American Catholic Church also had priests who abused children for a long time, and the institution covered it up.

shì jiè世界shàng上hěn很duō多nǚ xìng女性yī shēng一生zhōng中zāo yù遭遇guò过bào lì暴力,zhè这bú shì不是shǎo shù少数huài rén坏人,ér shì而是shè huì社会lǐ里cháng qī长期cún zài存在de的jié gòu结构wèn tí问题。

Many women around the world experience violence in their lifetime; this is not just a few bad people, but a long-standing structural problem in society.

guāng光yǒu有zhī shí知识bù gòu不够,gèng更xū yào需要nèi xīn内心de的chéng zhǎng成长hé和zhèng què正确de的jià zhí价值。

Having knowledge is not enough; inner growth and correct values are also needed.

zhēn zhèng真正de的gǎi biàn改变cóng从měi tiān每天de的xiǎo小xuǎn zé选择kāi shǐ开始:wǒ men我们yuàn愿bù不yuàn yì愿意zhī chí支持zhèng zhí正直de的rén人?

Real change starts with small daily choices: are we willing to support honest people?

zài在míng ní sū dá明尼苏达,yǒu rén有人bāng zhù帮助miàn duì面对yí mín移民zhí fǎ执法de的lín jū邻居,sòng送shí wù食物、hù xiāng互相zhào kàn照看。

In Minnesota, some people help neighbors facing immigration enforcement by providing food and looking out for each other.

zhè yàng这样de的shì事bù不chū míng出名,què却ràng让rén人gèng更ān quán安全、gèng更yǒu有zūn yán尊严。

These acts are not famous but make people safer and more dignified.

zhè这cái才shì是rén lèi人类fā zhǎn发展de的xī wàng希望。

This is the hope for human development.
