雙語暢銷書《我是馬拉拉》第25章:尾聲(11)
Something else happened that day.
My mother allowed herself to be publicly photographed for the first time.
我的母親第一次准許她自己在大庭廣衆之下接受拍照。As she has lived her life in purdah and never unveiled her face on camera before, it was a great sacrifice and very difficult for her.
她一生都戴着面紗，她先前從未在沒有遮蓋臉部的情況下，在照相機前露面，這對她來說是一個很大的犧牲，一個艱難的決定。
At breakfast the next day Atal said to me in the hotel, 'Malala, I don't understand why you are famous. What have you done?'
第二天，當我們在飯店吃早餐時，阿塔爾對我說：“馬拉拉，我不懂爲什麼你這麼有名。你做了什麼啊？”All the time we were in New York he was more excited by the Statue of Liberty, Central Park and his favourite game Beyblade!
在我們停留紐約的這段時間，他其實只關心自由女神像、中央公園，和他最喜歡的遊戲“戰鬥陀螺”！After the speech I received messages of support from all over the world, but there was mostly silence from my own country,
那次演講之後，我收到來自世界各地的支持，但我的祖國的人民卻多數仍保持緘默。except that on Twitter and Facebook we could see my own Pakistani brothers and sisters turning against me.
不過，在Twitter和Facebook上，我卻看見我的巴基斯坦兄弟姐妹們紛紛發表了反對我的言論。They accused me of speaking out of 'a teen lust for fame'.
他們指控我的登高一呼不過是“青少年想紅的心態作祟”。One said, 'Forget the image of your country, forget about the school.
其中一個人說：“忘記你的國家的形象，忘記那些學校。She would eventually get what she was after, a life of luxury abroad.'
到最後，她會得到她想要的，那就是一生的榮華富貴。”I don't mind. I know people say these things because they have seen leaders and politicians in our country who make promises they never keep.
我不介意。我知道人們這麼說，是因爲他們曾看到過我們國家的領袖與政客許下了一個又一個承諾，卻從未實踐。Instead things in Pakistan are getting worse every day.
相反地，巴基斯坦的形勢一天糟過一天，The endless terrorist attacks have left the whole nation in shock.
恐怖分子無止境的攻擊讓整個國家處於驚恐中。People have lost trust in each other, but I would like everyone to know that I don't want support for myself, I want the support to be for my cause of peace and education.
雖然人們之間無法彼此互相信任，但我希望大家知道，我不需要他們支持我這個人，我希望他們支持我追求和平與受教育權利的事業。
