闻一多拍案而起，拒绝向敌人屈服。

Wen Yiduo rose to his full height and refused to submit to the enemy.

当讲到，宇宙的存在是没有目的没有意义的时候，他拍案而起，喝说：“你想这些东西有什么意义？” ！全是在浪费时间！

When hearing that the existence of the cosmos contains no purpose and no meaning, he flipped out and shouted: "Why do you think about this?"! It was a total waste of time!

你有没有过不顾别人对你生气而为自己认为正确的事拍案而起？要是没有过的话，你认为自己是不是有足够的勇气去做呢？

Did you ever stand up for something you thought was right even though a lot of people got upset with you? If not, do you think you would ever be strong enough to do so?

但是我们已经给了美国20年觉醒的时间了，或许现在我们该拍案而起，已到无法再等的时候了。可能他们永远不会觉醒，那难道我们不应该对美国做点什么么？

But we have waited 20 years for the US to wake up and maybe it's time to conclude that we can't afford to wait any longer.
