1--Who stands out in your mind as a man or woman of sound character?
2--If I think of famous people, I think of Abraham Lincoln.
1--He's the US president, who walked five miles just to give a lady her change, isn't he?
2--That's the one. He also was famous for never giving up on his goals.
1--That's right. He ran for office quite a few times before he was finally elected.
2--And I also admire him for his courage in fighting for equal rights.
1--He had great vision, didn't he?
2--And humility. I would have liked to meet him personally.

1--没错,他当选前参选了好几次。
2--而且我也很景仰他为平等奋战的勇气。
1--他有远见卓识,不是吗?
2--而且谦恭,要是可以,我真想亲眼见见他。
