他注意到数不清的.海星在潮水退去是活生生地被困在沙滩上。这是他遇到了一个年轻人,他正在捡起一些海星并将它们扔回海中。
"What are you doing?"the old man asked.
“你在做什么呢?”老人问。
"Oh,just saving some starfish,"the young man replied.
“呃,在救活这些海星。”年轻人回答说。
"Well,you're a fool,"the old man told him.
“哦,你有点犯傻。”老人告诉她。
"Really?"replied the young man,"What makes you say so?"
“是吗?”年轻人问,“您为什么会这样认为?”
"Well,just look at all the starfish on this beach.There are thousands of them."
“哦,只要看看岸边的所有这些海星就知道了。它们可有成千上万只。”
The old man looked around and then at the young man.

"You don't have the time nor the energy to save all of them.Your saving a few starfish is nice,but in the larger scheme of things,it's ridiculous.What difference could you possibly make?"
“你根本没有时间也没有精力去拯救这所有的海星,你救活了一些海星当然很好,可是你想要救活全部则完全不切实际。你的努力能改变什么呢?”

And he tossed another into the ocean,"and this one",tossed,"and this one..."
