| The biggest scolding I've ever taken | A maior bronca que já levei |
| We had a physiology class at the medical school right after Homeland week. | Tínhamos uma aula de Fisiologia na escola de medicina logo após a semana da Pátria. |
| As most of the students had traveled on the holiday, they were all eager to share the news with their colleagues and there was general excitement. | Como a maioria dos alunos havia viajado aproveitando o feriado prolongado, todos estavam ansiosos para contar as novidades aos colegas e a excitação era geral. |
| An old professor entered the room and immediately realized that he was going to have a lot of work to get silence. | Um velho professor entrou na sala e imediatamente percebeu que teria muito trabalho para conseguir silêncio. |
| With a great deal of patience, he tried to start the class, but do you think my class responded? | Com grande dose de paciência tentou começar a aula, mas você acha que minha turma correspondeu? |
| No chance. | Que nada. |
| With some embarrassment, the teacher politely asked for silence again. | Com um certo constrangimento, o professor tornou a pedir silêncio educadamente. |
| It was no use, we ignored the request and remained firm in the conversation. | Não adiantou, ignoramos a solicitação e continuamos firmes na conversa. |
| That's when the old professor lost patience and gave the biggest scolding I've ever witnessed. | Foi aí que o velho professor perdeu a paciência e deu a maior bronca que eu já presenciei. |
| "Pay attention because I'm only going to say this once," he said, raising his voice, and a guilty silence settled across the room and the teacher continued. | "Prestem atenção porque eu vou falar isso uma única vez", disse, levantando a voz e um silêncio carregado de culpa se instalou em toda a sala e o professor continuou." |
| "Since I started teaching, this has been many years ago, I discovered that we teachers only work with 5% of the students in a class." | "Desde que comecei a lecionar, isso já faz muito anos, descobri que nós professores, trabalhamos apenas 5% dos alunos de uma turma." |
| "In all these years I've observed that out of every hundred students, only five are really those who make a difference in the future; only five become brilliant professionals and contribute significantly to improving people's quality of life." | "Em todos esses anos observei que de cada cem alunos, apenas cinco são realmente aqueles que fazem alguma diferença no futuro; apenas cinco se tornam profissionais brilhantes e contribuem de forma significativa para melhorar a qualidade de vida das pessoas." |
| "The other 95% are just for bulking up; they're mediocre and go through life without leaving anything useful." | "Os outros 95% servem apenas para fazer volume; são medíocres e passam pela vida sem deixar nada de útil." |
| "The interesting thing is that this percentage is valid for everything." | "O interessante é que esta percentagem vale para todo o mundo." |
| "If you pay attention, you will notice that out of a hundred teachers, only five are the ones who make a difference; out of a hundred waiters, only five are excellent; out of a hundred taxi drivers, only five are true professionals; and we can generalize even further: out of a hundred people, only five are truly special." | "Se vocês prestarem atenção notarão que de cem professores, apenas cinco são aqueles que fazem a diferença; de cem garçons, apenas cinco são excelentes; de cem motoristas de táxi, apenas cinco são verdadeiros rofissionais; e podemos generalizar ainda mais: de cem pessoas, apenas cinco são verdadeiramente especiais." |
| "It's a great pity that we don't have a way to separate this 5% from the rest, because if that were possible, I would leave only the special students in this room and put the others outside, then I would have the necessary silence to give a good class and I would sleep peacefully knowing I had invested on the best." | "É uma pena muito grande não termos como separar estes 5% do resto, pois se isso fosse possível, eu deixaria apenas os alunos especiais nesta sala e colocaria os demais para fora, então teria o silêncio necessário para dar uma boa aula e dormiria tranquilo sabendo ter investido nos melhores." |
| "But unfortunately there is no way to know which of you are these students." | "Mas, infelizmente não há como saber quais de vocês são estes alunos." |
| "Only time can show that." | "Só o tempo é capaz de mostrar isso." |
| "So I'll just have to make do and try to teach a class for the special students, despite the mess that's being made by the rest." | "Portanto, terei de me conformar e tentar dar uma aula para os alunos especiais, apesar da confusão que estará sendo feita pelo resto." |
| "Of course, each of you can always choose which group you belong to." | "Claro que cada um de vocês sempre pode escolher a qual grupo pertencerá." |
| "Thanks for your attention and let's proceed with the class". | "Obrigado pela atenção e vamos à aula". |
| Needless to say, the class was silent afterwards and the teacher got the level of attention he needed to give his class. | Nem preciso dizer, a sala ficou em silêncio em seguida e o professor conseguiu o nível de atenção que precisava para dar sua aula. |
| In fact, the scolding touched all of us deeply, as my class had an exemplary behavior in all Physiology classes throughout the semester; after all who would want to spontaneously be classified as part of the rest? | Aliás, a bronca tocou fundo em todos nós, pois minha turma teve um comportamento exemplar em todas as aulas de Fisiologia durante todo o semestre; afinal quem gostaria de espontaneamente ser classificado como fazendo parte do resto? |
| Today I don't remember much about my Physiology classes, but the teacher's scolding I never forgot. | Hoje não me lembro muita coisa das aulas de Fisiologia, mas a bronca do professor eu nunca mais esqueci. |
| For me, that teacher was one of the 5% that made a difference in my life. | Para mim, aquele professor foi um dos 5% que fizeram a diferença em minha vida. |
| In fact, I realized that he was right, and since then, I've been doing everything I can to always stay in the 5% group, but, as he said, there's no way to know if we're doing well or not; only time will tell which group we belong to. | De fato, percebi que ele tinha razão e, desde então, tenho feito de tudo para ficar sempre no grupo dos 5%, mas, como ele disse, não há como saber se estamos indo bem ou não; só o tempo dirá a que grupo pertencemos. |
| However, one thing is for sure: if we don't try to be special in everything we do, if we don't try to do everything the best we can, we will surely belong to other 95%. | Contudo, uma coisa é certa: se não tentarmos ser especiais em tudo que fazemos, se não tentarmos fazer tudo o melhor possível, certamente faremos parte dos outros 95%. |
