A friend is someone who knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still gently allows you to grow. — William Shakespeare
I am deeply ashamed of this, but until last year, I foolishly had made fun of students with disabilities.
나는이일을굉장히부끄럽게생각하고있지만, 작년까지나는어리석게도장애를가진학생들을놀려댔다.
I thought there was nothing to learn from them, and I was afraid that my friends would turn against me if I talked to an intellectually challenged boy.
During the game, Alan's moves were so impressive that I couldn't take my eyes off him.
경기중에Alan의움직임은굉장히인상적이어서나는그에게서눈을뗄수가없었다.
Everyone cheered as he made a basket.
Alan이슛을넣을때마다모두가환호했다.
I felt terrible that I had looked down on him.
나는그를무시했던것에대해너무미안함을느꼈다.
So I apologized after the game.
그래서경기후에나는그에게사과했다.
We have become very close since then.
그이후로우리는매우가까워졌다.
As it turned out, Alan loves hiphop just like me.
나중에안것이지만, Alan은나처럼힙합을좋아했다.
When we listen to music together, he dances with such freedom that I can't help myself from joining him.
우리가음악을같이들을때면, 그는매우자유롭게춤을춰서나는그와함께하지않을수없다.
Alan shows his emotions in the most honest way.
Alan은그의감정을가장솔직한방법으로드러낸다.
Being with him has taught me how to be true to myself whatever other people may think of me.
그와함께보냈던시간이다른사람들이내게뭐라고생각하던상관없이자신에게진실할수있는방법을알려주었다.
Now, we are planning to participate in the school talent show.
이제우리는학교장기자랑에참가할계획을세우고있다.
I will sing and Alan will dance to our favorite hiphop music.
우리가가장좋아하는힙합음악에맞춰나는노래를하고, Alan은춤을출것이다.
When we are together, we will shine as one.
우리가함께한다면우리는하나처럼빛날것이다.
Friendship in the Animal World
동물세계에서의우정
Sometimes dolphins team up to rescue an injured friend.
가끔돌고래들은부상당한친구를구하기위해협력한다.
In Ulsan, South Korea in June 2008, about twelve dolphins were swimming very close together.
한국울산에서2008년6월에약12마리의돌고래가가까이에서함께수영하고있었다.
It appeared that one of the females was seriously injured.
암컷중한마리가심각한부상을당한것처럼보였다.
Whenever she started struggling to breathe, the other dolphins crowded around her, diving beneath her and supporting her from below.
암컷이숨쉬기를어려워할때마다, 다른돌고래가주변을둘러싸고바다밑으로들어가아래에서받쳐주었다.
After thirty minutes, the dolphins formed something similar to a boat; they swam side by side with the injured female on their backs.
30분이지나자, 돌고래는배와비슷한뭔가를형성했다. 그들은암컷을등에태운채곁에서수영했다.
By keeping the injured dolphin above water, they helped her to breathe.
부상당한돌고래를수면위로올림으로써고래들은암컷이숨쉬는것을도와주었다.
This act of helping seems to suggest that dolphins are capable of assisting others when they are in trouble and that they live peacefully with one another.
