个人发展类英语作文素材，适用主题：个人责任，社会变革，改变等等

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." “如果我们等待别人或等待更好的时机,变革将无从产生。我们自己正是我们一直在等待的人。我们自己就是我们力求的变革。” —— 巴拉克·奥巴马 出自美国前总统巴拉克·奥巴马的胜选演说。 适用主题：个人责任,社会变革,改变等等 We often complain about various social problems, expecting others to solve them. However, as Barack Obama recognized, “Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.” Each of us has a responsibility to address social issues. Don’t just criticize inequality - volunteer at a community center. Don’t just lament pollution - join an environmental group. The change we seek in the world begins with personal action. Through our individual contributions, society transforms little by little each day. Though we cannot do everything, we can still light a candle instead of cursing the darkness. Progress emerges gradually as we become the change we wish to see. 译文：我们经常抱怨各种社会问题,期待别人去解决。然而,正如巴拉克·奥巴马所认识到的,“如果我们等待别人或等待更好的时机,变革将无从产生。我们自己正是我们一直在等待的人。”我们每个人都有责任解决社会问题。不要只是批评不平等,要在社区中心做志愿者。不要只是叹息污染问题,要加入环保组织。我们想要看到的世界变化,必须从个人行动开始。通过我们每个人的贡献,社会每天都在悄悄变化。虽然我们不能做所有的事,但我们仍然可以点亮蜡烛,而不是去诅咒黑暗。随着我们成为自己想看到的改变,进步会逐渐浮现。
