英語晨讀經典美文：窗口

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the ftuid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

兩個病重的男人住在同一間病房。其中一個每天下午需要在床上坐起來一個小時，以便排出肺部的流質食物。他的床靠著這間房子的唯一一扇窗戶。另一個人則只能平躺在床上度日。

The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military anda whole lot of things. Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.

他們能連續說上好幾個小時的話。他們談論各自的妻子和家人、他們的家、他們的工作、他們參軍的經歷，還有好多其他的事情。每天下午，當靠著窗戶的那個人能坐起來的時候，他總是向他的室友描繪他看到的窗外發生的所有事情。

The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color ofthe world outside.

睡在另一張床上的人開始盼望著那些—小時的生活。每當那時，他的生活就會因窗外的一切活動和多姿多彩而感到開闊和愉快。

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

從窗口望去是一個公園，里面有一個可愛的池塘。鴨子和天鵝在水中嬉戲，孩子們則在劃模型船，年輕的戀人手挽手在絢麗多彩的花叢中散步，遠處是城市地平線上美麗的風景。

As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

靠窗的這個人用優美的語言詳細描繪這些的時候，房子另一端的那個人就會閉上眼睛想象那些栩栩如生的情景。

One warm aftemoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn't hear the band he could see it in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window pojrtrayed it with descriptive words.

一個溫和的下午，窗口的那個人描繪了經過此處的閱兵。盡管另一個人聽不到樂隊演奏，但他卻能看到。當窗口那個人用生動的語言描繪的時候，他則用心在看。

Days and weeks passed. one morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for theirbaths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

一天天過去了’一周周過去了。一天早晨，當值白班的護士為他們提來洗澡水，看到的卻是窗口那個男人的尸體，他已經在睡夢中安然去世了.她很悲傷，便叫醫院的值班人員把尸體抬走了。

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.

一到合適的時機，另一個人便問他能否搬到窗口那兒去。護士很樂意為他作了調換，在確信他覺得舒適后，就離開了。

Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside. He strained to slowly tum to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

緩慢地痛苦地，他用一個胳膊肘支撐著自己起來，想第一次親眼看看外面的真實世界。他竭盡全力慢慢地朝床邊的窗口望去看到的卻只是一面墻。

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate to have described such wonderful things outside this window.The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see thewall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

這個人問護士是什么促使他過世的室友描繪出窗外那么豐富的世界的。護士回答說，那個人是個盲人，甚至連墻都看不見。她說：“也許他只是想鼓勵你。”

英語晨讀經典美文：生命中小小的一部分

When he told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which has just smashed. There were pieces of me all over the tidy, tan tiles. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving, explaining it was for the best, I could do better, it was his fault and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still not immune; perhaps one did not become immune to such blow.

當他告訴我他要離開的時候，我感覺自己就像花瓶裂成了碎片，跌落在干凈的茶色瓷磚地板上。他一直在說話，解釋著為什么要離開，說什么這是最好的選擇，我可以做得更好，都是他的錯，與我無關。雖然這些話我已經聽上好幾千遍了，可每次聽完都讓我很受傷，或許在這樣巨大的打擊面前沒有人能做到無動于衷。

He left and I tried to get on with my life, I filled the kettle and put it on to boil, I took out my old red mug and filled it with coffee watching as each coffee granule slipped in to the mug. That was what my life had been like, endless omissions of coffee granules, somehow never managing to make that cup of coffee.

他走了，我嘗試著繼續過自己的生活。我把水壺裝滿水燒上，取出我那只紅色的舊馬克杯，倒入咖啡，看著咖啡粉末一點點地落A杯子里。這正是我現在生活的鮮活寫照，不斷地往下掉咖啡粉末，卻從來沒有真正地泡成一杯咖啡。

Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing waming I pretended not to hear it. That's what Mike's leaving had been like, sudden and with an awful finality. I would rather just wallow in uncertainty than have things finished.I laughed at myself. Imagine geffing all philosophical and sentimental about a mug of coffee. I must be getting old.

水開了，水壺發出警報聲，我假裝沒有聽見。邁克的離去也是一樣，突如其來，并且無可挽回。要知道，我寧愿忍受分與不分的煎熬，也不愿意以這樣的方式被宣判“死刑”。想著想著我就啞然失笑，自己竟然為一杯咖啡有如此多的人生感懷，我自己一定是老了。

And yet it was a young woman who stared back at me from the mirror. A young woman full of promise and hope, a young woman with bright eyes and full lips just waiting to take on the world. I never loved Mike anyway. Besides there are more important things. More important than love, I insist to myselffirmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closure on the whole Mike experience.

可鏡子里回瞪著我的那個女孩還是那么年輕啊!她明目皓齒，充滿了前途與希望，光明的未來在向她招手。沒關系的，反正我也從來沒有愛過邁克。何況，生命中還有比愛更重要的東西在等待著我，我對自己堅持說。我將咖啡罐的蓋子蓋好，也將所有關于邁克的記憶塵封起來。

He doesn't haunt my dreams as I feared that night. Instead I am flying far across fields and woods, looking down on those below me.Suddenly I fall to the ground and it is only when I wake up that I realize I was shot by a hunter, brought down by the burden of not the bullet but the soul of the man who shot it. I realize later, with some degree of understanding, that Mike was the hunter holding me down and I am the bird that longs to fly. The next rught my dream is similar to the previous

nights, but without the hunter.I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some relief that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a friend, but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken vase again and realize that I have glued myself back together, what Mike has is merely a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physicalbeing. He has only, a little piece ofme.

那天晚上，出乎意料的是，他并沒有進入到我的夢中。在夢里，我飛過田野和森林，俯瞰著大地。突然間，我掉了下來……醒來后才發現原來自己被獵人打中了，但是令我墜落的不是他的子彈，而是他的靈魂。我后來才漸漸明白，原來邁克就是那個使我墜落的獵人，而我是那只渴望飛翔的小鳥。到了第二天晚上，我仍然做了類似的夢，但是獵人不見了，我—直在自由地飛翔，直到遇上另外一只小鳥和我比翼雙飛。我開始意識到，總有那么一只鳥，那么一個人在前面等我，這個人可能是我的愛人，可能只是朋友，但一定是知我懂我的人，這令我感覺如釋重負。我想起自己曾經覺得像花瓶一樣裂開了，這才意識到原來自己已經把自己修理好了.邁克只是我生命過程中的小小過客，他僅僅了解我的表面而已，他僅僅是我生命中小小的一部分

10大請外國朋友簽名和拍照的經典句

【李陽老師的話】

我為成千上萬的人簽過名，但幾乎沒有一個人能正確地說出：請給我簽個名。

其實找別人簽名主要有兩個好處：第一，讓人見證你的人生歷史。如果我在書店買了一本好書，我會讓營業員和與我同行的朋友都簽上名！我在餐廳讀英語，我會讓餐廳的老板給我簽名，為我“光輝的”奮斗史見證。第二，如果你讓自己尊重和景仰的人簽名，會起到鼓舞斗志的作用！和外國朋友照相也是很多英語學習者的夢想。但由于結結巴巴，或措辭不當，導致失去機會，或是得罪別人，現在讓我們來學習正確的、禮貌的說法！

【絕大部分大學生都無法正確地說出“autograph”這個單詞，如果你能脫口而出，一定會讓人贊嘆不已！】

4.Would you write a few words of encouragement for me?

{你能為我寫點鼓勵性的話嗎？}

【人人都需要鼓勵，讓見到的名人、老外以及身邊的老師、朋友、同學和家人為你在書上寫一些鼓勵的話，你一定能夠堅持下去！】

5.Would you mind signing this bood for me?

{你可以幫我在這本書上簽個名嗎？}

【“Would you mind + V-ing”是個非常好用的巨型，它可以充份顯示你的禮貌！】

6.I hope you will sign my book for me and write a few words of encouragement. I will read your words when I need inspiration.

{我希望你能為我在我的書上簽個名，再寫幾句鼓勵性的話。當我需要鼓舞時，我會讀你寫的話。}

【這是個六星級的句子。脫口而出這句話，連老外都會對你的英語側目而視！】

7.Can we take a picture together?

{我們可以一起拍張照嗎？}

【有禮貌地說出這句話，不會有人拒絕你的要求的！】

8.Would you mind taking a picture with me?

{你是否介意與我拍張照？}

【再次用到這個五星級巨型！】

9.Can I have a picture taken with you?

{我可以與你拍張照嗎？}

【這句話中有個復雜的語法：have…done,“讓…被…”。這是被動語態的高級用法！】

10.Let’s take a picture together.

{我們一起拍張照吧。}

【最簡單的說法！但卻絕對有用！】

“搖搖籃的手啊……可以搖世界。”

讓我們花一小會兒時間，對那個叫“媽”的人表示敬意，表達感謝，雖然有些人當著面說不出口。媽媽是不可替代的。珍惜與她在一起的每一時刻吧。雖然有時候，她可能不是我們最好的朋友，可能不同意我們的想法，但媽媽就是媽媽！！！她始終陪伴你身邊，聽你的傷心事，聽你吹大牛，聽你把沮喪傾訴……。捫心自問，你是否曾經抽出過足夠的時間陪伴她，聽她講圍著灶臺轉的“傷心事”，講她也會疲勞？？？就算你與她意見不一，也要委婉，充滿愛心，對她表示出應有的尊敬。一旦她去了，剩下的就只有對過去歲月的美好回憶，還有就是終生的遺憾。

不要以為，與你心最近，你就理所應得。

愛她，要甚于愛你自己。

生命中沒有了她，將了無意義……

three passions 三種激情 -----羅素

《三種激情》是選自《伯特蘭·羅素自傳》的一篇優秀散文。它既是作者心靈的抒發，也是生命體驗的總結。作者以深刻的感悟和敏銳的目光，分析了人生中的三種激情，即對愛的渴望，對知識的追求和對人類苦難的同情。對愛的渴望，使人欣喜若狂，既能解除孤獨，又能發現美好的未來。對知識的追求，使人理解人心，了解宇宙，掌握科學。愛和知識把人引向天堂般的境界，而對人類的同情之心又使人回到苦難深重的人間。作者認為這就是人生，值得為此再活一次的人生。這篇散文似乎信手拈來，但卻耐人尋味。充滿激情，充滿感慨，充滿智慧，情文并茂，邏輯性和感染力極強。

伯特蘭·羅素(bertrand russell,1872-1970)是英國聲譽卓著，影響深遠的哲學家、數學家、邏輯學家和散文家。他生于威爾士的特萊雷克，就讀于劍橋三一學院，在其漫長的一生中完成了40余部著作，涉及哲學、數學、倫理、社會、教育、歷史、宗教及政治等許多領域。他早年的成就主要在數學和邏輯學，中年關注倫理道德、教育、政治，激勵和啟發富有進取精神的人。在1921年曾來中國，在北京大學作過講座。他在1950年榮獲諾貝爾文學獎。在政治上，他反對侵略戰爭，主張和平，晚年參加反戰示威。主要著作有《數學原理》、《哲學大綱》、《教育與美好生活》、《羅素自傳》三卷本。

three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. these ?passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

i have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy –ecstasy so great that i would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. i have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness--that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. i have sought it, finally, because in the union of love i have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. this is what i sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what- at last- i have found.

with equal passion i have sought knowledge. i have wished to understand the hearts of men. i have tried to apprehend the pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flu.

a little of this, but not much, i have achieved.

love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. but always pity brought me back to earth. echoesek?u 重復 of cries of pain reverberate riv?:b?reit 回響in my heart. children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. i long to alleviate?li:vieit減輕 the evil, but i cannot, and i too suffer.

this has been my life. i have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

三種激情 -----羅素

三種激情雖然簡單，卻異常強烈，它們統治著我的生命，那便是：對愛的渴望，對知識的追求，以及對人類苦難的難以承受的同情。這三種激情像變化莫測的狂風任意地把我刮來刮去，把我刮入痛苦的深海，到了絕望的邊緣。

我曾經尋找愛，首先是因為它能使我欣喜若狂——這種喜悅之情如此強烈，使我常常寧愿為這幾個小時的愉悅而犧牲生命中的其他一切。我尋求愛，其次是因為愛能解除孤獨——在這種可怕的孤獨中，一顆顫抖的良心在世界的邊緣，注視著下面冰涼、毫無生氣、望不見底的深淵。我尋求愛還因為在愛的融合中，我能以某種神秘的圖像看到曾被圣人和詩人想象過的天堂里未來的景象。這就是我所追求的東西，雖然這似乎對于人類的生命來說過于完美，但這確實是我最終發現的東西。 我懷著同樣的激情去尋找知識，我曾渴望著理解人心，我曾渴望知道為何星星會閃爍，我還企圖弄懂畢達哥拉斯所謂的用數字控制變化的力量，但在這方面，我只知道一點點。

愛的力量和知識的力量引我接近天堂，但同情之心往往又把我拉回大地。痛苦的哭泣回響、震蕩在我的心中。饑餓的兒童，被壓迫、受折磨的人們，成為兒孫們討厭的包袱的、無助的老人們，充斥著整個世界的孤獨的氣氛，貧窮和苦難，所有這一切都是對人類生活原本該具有的樣子所作的諷刺。我渴望消除一切邪惡，但我辦不到，因為我自己也處于苦難之中。 這就是我的生活，我認為值得一過。而且，如果有第二次機會，我將樂意地再過一次。 relish the moment 擁抱今天

英語經典美文

我們習慣用自己的語言表達情感，時而直接，時而含蓄。不妨用另一種語言來表達對親情、友情、愛情、勵志等感情，用一種和漢語差別較大的語言表達類似的情感，感受一下用英語表達出來的情感有何不同，也是一件有趣的事情。例如以下經過分類的英語經典美文，通過閱讀、理解、誦讀、摘抄，應該會別有一番滋味，而且能夠從文字中體驗外國人對情感的表達方式，加深對不同文化的理解和辨別。

春天的風吹綠了柳梢頭，夏天的風吹散了炎熱，秋天的風吹黃了稻谷，冬天的風吹白了大地，

母愛的風吹醒了我的靈魂。

考試是每個學生勞動成果的展示，成績的好與壞直接影響著學生的心情。在期末考試后，成績單到家的那一天，我失望急了，我的英語成績才78分，看完成績單后，我就一言不發地躺在床上，看著天花板??不知過了多久，門忽然開了，媽媽進來坐在我的身邊，不住打量我，突然，媽媽氣憤地對我大聲吼道：“你賴在床上干什么？你沒考好是你自己不用功，這能怪誰??”等媽媽把話說完，我傷心地哭了。

哭累了，把眼淚擦干，我望著慈祥的媽媽。媽媽見我心已冷靜下來，她也恢復了本來面目，深情地對我說：“考試的分數固然重要，但你的主觀努力更重要，只要你盡力了，你的人生中就沒“后悔”兩字??”我的眼睛一亮，精神也好了起來，信心又回到我的身上。 母愛如風，把我的不良情緒吹得無影無蹤，把我的精神吹得倍兒清爽。

當一個人仰望天空，暢想著自己的前程的時候，他第一個想到的最應該是自己未來的家。這就好比現在人們拼命攢錢買房一樣，其實人們所要的不僅僅是一個單純的“巢穴”，而更是一個溫暖的家。這處房子是家的承載，它的外在顯現不出它的深意，而重要的是其中那濃而不膩的親情。

涼風忽起的時候，總會有人把房間的門窗悄悄地關上；被子翻掉的時候，總會有人輕輕地幫你蓋上。煩惱憂心的時候，會有人耐心的勸慰；歡騰喜悅的時候，會有人會心的祝福。當一個榮耀降臨我們身上的時候，第一個為之慶幸的必是我們的家人；當孤獨落寞侵襲我們的心靈的時候，第一個撫慰我們的也必是我們的家人。篇三：英語經典美文和英語經典語句

【暑假打工】

summer holiday part-time job

during the summer holiday of 2005, i thought i should do something meaningful instead of staying at home and watching tv. so i got a job at a kfc fast food restaurant and worked there as a cleaner. every day i went to work early in the morning and got home late in the evening. i worked 7 hours a day for three weeks. the job was hard, boring and seemed endless, which made me so tired that i almost quit half way. after all, i stuck to it with my determination.

finally, i finished the job before the new school term began.

now, i understand what labor means. i think it was really a successful experience. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

在2005年暑假，我想我應該做的事情，而不是呆在家里看電視有意義的。所以我就在一家肯德基快餐店工作，擔任清潔工那里。我每天上班早在上午和晚上回到家中后期。本人每天工作7小時，三個星期。這項工作很艱苦，枯燥，而且沒完沒了，這讓我太累了，我差點半途而廢。畢竟，我堅持要和我的決心。最后，我完成了這項工作在新學期開始了。現在，我明

白了勞動的意義。我認為這是一個真正的成功經驗。

secrets to write a beautiful article

dear worried,

[1] i have received your letter and i’m glad to give you some suggestions. first of all, don’t be disappointed. many students find it difficult to write well. in my opinion, if you want to improve your writing, you should do the following things. first, do some studying with the set phrases and sentence structures. keep a list of them and then try to make some sentences with them. second, read english as much as possible. there are many things that can’t be learnt immediately. you must see them in books many times. then you’ll be able to use them correctly yourself. so, in order to write well, you must learn to read a lot. finally, you’d better recite some good passages. the more passages you read, the better you will write.

[2]i’m sure you can improve your written english as long as you study hard. remember, practice makes perfect.(我是一名高三學生，我就麻煩了。我以前喜歡英語，但現在我有

春天的風吹綠了柳梢頭，夏天的風吹散了炎熱，秋天的風吹黃了稻谷，冬天的風吹白了大地，母愛的風吹醒了我的靈魂。

考試是每個學生勞動成果的展示，成績的好與壞直接影響著學生的心情。在期末考試后，成績單到家的那一天，我失望急了，我的英語成績才78分，看完成績單后，我就一言不發地躺在床上，看著天花板??不知過了多久，門忽然開了，媽媽進來坐在我的身邊，不住打量我，突然，媽媽氣憤地對我大聲吼道：“你賴在床上干什么？你沒考好是你自己不用功，這能怪誰??”等媽媽把話說完，我傷心地哭了。

哭累了，把眼淚擦干，我望著慈祥的媽媽。媽媽見我心已冷靜下來，她也恢復了本來面目，深情地對我說：“考試的分數固然重要，但你的主觀努力更重要，只要你盡力了，你的人生中就沒“后悔”兩字??”我的眼睛一亮，精神也好了起來，信心又回到我的身上。 母愛如風，把我的不良情緒吹得無影無蹤，把我的精神吹得倍兒清爽。

當一個人仰望天空，暢想著自己的前程的時候，他第一個想到的最應該是自己未來的家。這就好比現在人們拼命攢錢買房一樣，其實人們所要的不僅僅是一個單純的“巢穴”，而更是一個溫暖的家。這處房子是家的承載，它的外在顯現不出它的深意，而重要的是其中那濃而不膩的親情。

涼風忽起的時候，總會有人把房間的門窗悄悄地關上；被子翻掉的時候，總會有人輕輕地幫你蓋上。煩惱憂心的時候，會有人耐心的勸慰；歡騰喜悅的時候，會有人會心的祝福。當一個榮耀降臨我們身上的時候，第一個為之慶幸的必是我們的家人；當孤獨落寞侵襲我們的心靈的時候，第一個撫慰我們的也必是我們的家人。

篇三：英語經典美文賞析與背誦

Three passions 三種激情 -----羅素

《三種激情》是選自《伯特蘭·羅素自傳》的一篇優秀散文。它既是作者心靈的抒發，也是生命體驗的總結。作者以深刻的感悟和敏銳的目光，分析了人生中的三種激情，即對愛的渴望，對知識的追求和對人類苦難的同情。對愛的渴望，使人欣喜若狂，既能解除孤獨，又能發現美好的未來。對知識的追求，使人理解人心，了解宇宙，掌握科學。愛和知識把人引向天堂般的境界，而對人類的同情之心又使人回到苦難深重的人間。作者認為這就是人生，值得為此再活一次的人生。這篇散文似乎信手拈來，但卻耐人尋味。充滿激情，充滿感慨，充滿智慧，情文并茂，邏輯性和感染力極強。

伯特蘭·羅素(Bertrand Russell,1872-1970)是英國聲譽卓著，影響深遠的哲學家、數學家、邏輯學家和散文家。他生于威爾士的特萊雷克，就讀于劍橋三一學院，在其漫長的一生中完成了40余部著作，涉及哲學、數學、倫理、社會、教育、歷史、宗教及政治等許多領域。他早年的成就主要在數學和邏輯學，中年關注倫理道德、教育、政治，激勵和啟發富有進取精神的人。在1921年曾來中國，在北京大學作過講座。他在1950年榮獲諾貝爾文學獎。在政治上，他反對侵略戰爭，主張和平，晚年參加反戰示威。主要著作有《數學原理》、《哲學大綱》、《教育與美好生活》、《羅素自傳》三卷本。

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These ?

passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy –ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness--that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what- at last- I have found.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flu.

A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.

Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoesek?u 重復 of cries of pain reverberate ri'v?:b?reit 回響in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate?'li:vieit減輕 the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.

This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

三種激情 -----羅素

三種激情雖然簡單，卻異常強烈，它們統治著我的生命，那便是：對愛的渴望，對知識的追求，以及對人類苦難的難以承受的同情。這三種激情像變化莫測的狂風任意地把我刮來刮去，把我刮入痛苦的深海，到了絕望的

邊緣。

我曾經尋找愛，首先是因為它能使我欣喜若狂——這種喜悅之情如此強烈，使我常常寧愿為這幾個小時的愉悅而犧牲生命中的其他一切。我尋求愛，其次是因為愛能解除孤獨——在這種可怕的孤獨中，一顆顫抖的良心在世界的邊緣，注視著下面冰涼、毫無生氣、望不見底的深淵。我尋求愛還因為在愛的融合中，我能以某種神秘的圖像看到曾被圣人和詩人想象過的天堂里未來的景象。這就是我所追求的東西，雖然這似乎對于人類的生命來說過于完美，但這確實是我最終發現的東西。 我懷著同樣的激情去尋找知識，我曾渴望著理解人心，我曾渴望知道為何星星會閃爍，我還企圖弄懂畢達哥拉斯所謂的用數字控制變化的力量，但在這方面，我只知道一點點。

愛的力量和知識的力量引我接近天堂，但同情之心往往又把我拉回大地。痛苦的哭泣回響、震蕩在我的心中。饑餓的兒童，被壓迫、受折磨的人們，成為兒孫們討厭的包袱的、無助的老人們，充斥著整個世界的孤獨的氣氛，貧窮和苦難，所有這一切都是對人類生活原本該具有的樣子所作的諷刺。我渴望消除一切邪惡，但我辦不到，因為我自己也處于苦難之中。 這就是我的生活，我認為值得一過。而且，如果有第二次機會，我將樂意地再過一次。

經典英語美文譯文賞析

優美的文字于細微處傳達出美感，并浸潤著人們的心靈。通過英語美文,不僅能夠感受語言之美,領悟語言之用，還能產生學習語言的興趣。度過一段美好的時光，即感悟生活，觸動心靈。下面是 為大家帶來經典英語美文譯文賞析，希望大家喜歡!

經典英語美文譯文：勇追目標

Have you ever found yourself hyped up for a new project or program? You get started with full steam, and about two-thirds the way through, you start lagging. You lose interest, meet some stumbling blocks, and think, “Maybe I should just throw this project out.”

你會不會對某件新事物抱以三分熱情?開始的時候斗志昂揚，接著半途而廢。一遇到絆腳石，就喪失信心，然后很挫敗地想：“還是放棄眼前的努力算了。”

Well, you're not alone. Following through is one of the most challenging tasks, specifically when it comes to something you are doing for yourself. I say this because if you were working at a job for somebody else, I am sure you have no problem completing the task on time, and following through to the end. After all, your job and weekly pay depend on it.

其實，不止你有那樣的遭遇。世上最大的挑戰就是始終如一地堅持，要是這個堅持關乎自己，難度尤甚。我這樣說的依據是當你為別人效力時，肯定會將準時完成任務的標準貫徹到底。畢竟，那決定了你的業績和薪水。

However, for some reason, when it comes to your personal goals, you let things slide.

遺憾的是，在追求個人目標途中心有旁騖之際，你就毅然放棄了。

What gives?

有沒有搞錯?

Why the hell do we work harder for others than ourselves?

為別人工作居然比為自己還賣力，這究竟是怎么了?

Isn't that a little backwards?

應該是顛倒了主次吧!

Don't your dreams matter?

你的夢想還在嗎?

If you said, “YES!” I have 3 ways to get you to follow-through on your goals.

如果你有所醒悟，我就給你三條勇追目標的忠告吧。

1. Decide If You Really Want It:

This is a tough one. There are things we think we want, and then there are things we really want. Imagine you say to yourself, “I want to start taking Zumba classes.” Yet, you don't follow through. When you don't follow through, you need to ask yourself if you really want it. If you just say you want it because your friend is doing it, or because you read somewhere that it's fun, then you won't have the inner motivation to take action. However, when the motivation comes from within, the desire to take action is a lot stronger. Basically, you need to get honest with yourself, and decide if you are intrinsically motivated to take action, or if it is merely something you think you should be doing.

堅定目標

認清內心的渴望有點難度，世上有兩樣東西，一樣是我們想要的，另外一樣是我們渴望的。如果你中途放棄了目標，那就問問自己是否真有那么需要它。如果你的初衷僅僅是想追隨朋友，或因小興趣而致，那你就沒有付之行動的內在動力。一旦內在動力爆發，執行力度絕對強硬。最為主要的還是誠實地面對自己，看自己是渴望熾烈地追求目標，還是僅僅想打發時間而已。

2. Wash Fear Aside:

Once you establish that you want it, you may still encounter fear. You may think, “I really want to try Zumba, but I am afraid I will look silly… or, what if I don't know what I'm doing?” Those are the old fear patterns that are bound to come up. When you REALLY want something, the want must overpower the fear. This is where giving yourself a pep-talk works wonders to get you to take action, despite the fear. Just think about what I said earlier: if this was a job requirement, you would do it anyways. Well this is Project YOU. Decide to give yourself as much care and attention you would to your job. There will never be a magic pill to get you to take action. Life is too precious to not follow your dreams. Pep-talk yourself until you get yourself taking action. Imagine your life depends on it. Oh, it does.

勇敢追求

即使你堅定了目標，也會在追求的途中倉皇失措。有時會覺得，“我超想跳尊巴，但又覺得自己跳起來很丑……有時都不知道該跳哪一拍。”那些潛伏的恐懼也會接踵而至。如果你真的渴望去做某些事情，那份渴望定能克服恐懼。勇敢之心產生的奇跡能助你掃除一切阻礙，即使恐懼又怎樣。仔細揣摩我前面說的話：如工作時遇到麻煩，你都會排除萬難。那要是關于你自己的夢想呢?可否把對工作的熱情和關心等量加在自己身上?世上沒有任何魔法能驅使你追求夢想。人生也因夢想才顯得那么珍貴。唯有你才能鼓勵自己放手去追。生命的精彩全呈現在這追逐的過程里。真的全在這里。

3. Schedule it in:

Once you have decided that you want something and that you are ready to take action, you need to make sure you take action. Not all things can happen right now, in this moment. If they can, get to it! Otherwise, you must schedule it in your calendar, the same way you do a doctor's appointment or important meeting. Recognize that your commitments to yourself need the same care that commitments to others receive. Furthermore, when you write it down, it makes it more concrete. It is the first physical step to taking action. This action alone starts to build the momentum you need to continue taking action to following through on your goal.

高瞻遠矚

一旦你決定了要為夢想奮力一搏，那么你就要有個精密的計劃。實現夢想并非眼前的一步之舉。機會來臨之時，只有經過萬全的準備才能將其一舉拿下!要是時機未到，就要細細地規劃一下，像約見醫生或開重要會議一樣寫個行程表。對自己的承諾跟對他人的承諾同樣重要。白紙黑字地寫出計劃，夢想會變得更加明確。然這僅是實際行動的第一步。它能為后面追求的道路打下了夯實的基礎。

經典英語美文譯文：感恩

To be more grateful in life means that you are also allowing yourself to be happier, more contented and more satisfied with everything that has been going on around you. But with all the stress, all the disappointments and all the anxiety around you, I bet you ask yourself this question all the time:

“How exactly can I be more grateful with my life?”

對于周邊的一切，一個人愈加感恩，就愈能活得快樂，活得滿足。但在種種壓力，失望以及焦躁的重壓之下，你肯定會疑惑道：“我的感恩之心還能表現得更淋漓盡致么?”

Well, my dear friend, I think I have ten tips to help you with this particular concern. Here they are:

好了，親愛的朋友，鄙人自認為有十種方式可幫你排難解惑。如下：

Learn to live in the moment

活在當下

Life is a wonderful adventure filled with enriching experiences and endless possibilities. Don't just go through the motions of repetitive activities and boring tasks. No! Being a mindless zombie can make you more likely to take things for granted. Instead of doing something just for the sake of doing it, actually make an effort to savor the experience. You're supposed to attend a conference? Absorb it. Babysit your niece? Savor the moment. Eat a 15-minute lunch? Taste each bite.

人生就像一場冒險，充滿了豐富的體驗和無盡的可能。不要單單走一下過場，重復無聊的事情。也別行尸走肉般地將一切視為理所當然。與其為了完成任務而做事，不如細細體會萬事的韻味。若你參加會議，就好好地吸收每個細節。若你要照看侄女，就好好地體驗每一刻。若你要吃一刻鐘的午餐，請細嚼慢咽。

Make an Oath of Gratitude

誓言要感恩

Being aware of your goal to be more grateful can help you look for things to be really more grateful for. Gratitude is a conscious decision. You have to practice it consistently.

只有明確了自己懷著感恩的目標，你的世界才會懂得更加真摯地去感恩。那是一種意識上的覺悟，只有恒久地練習，才能真正實現。

Immerse yourself with inspirational thoughts and motivational quotes.

沉浸于激勵和鼓舞中

Your feeling of gratitude is a direct manifestation of your environment. If you feel more driven, more passionate, and more alive, you are also bound to appreciate more, live more, and be more content.

你感恩的一舉一動就是對環境的直接表現。如果你越是覺得有動力，有熱情，有活力，那你就越應該去欣賞，去體會，懂知足。

Make your own Gratitude Board.

制造自己的感恩版塊

You've heard of Motivation Boards, Disaster Boards and Dream Boards, so why can't you have Gratitude Boards as well? Instead of posting your dreams and your disasters, it's better for you to post the ideals that you feel grateful for. Just a hint: focus more on people and experiences rather than on materialistic stuff that don't necessarily last very long.

既然有動力版塊，災難版塊和夢想版塊，那你為什么不能擁有一個感恩版塊呢?與其張貼你的夢想和災難，不如分享你感恩的心情。給大家一個提示：既然物質的東西不會永垂不朽，不如將更多的注意放在身邊的人和體驗上。

Control your thoughts.

自我控制

Of course you have the power to control what you're thinking of! Consider this exercise, for example: if you find yourself thinking more and more self-entitled, stop. If you find yourself repeating negative junk, stop. And if you find yourself comparing yourself to other people, stop. You are given consciousness. Make use of it wisely.

你一定有控制自己所思所想的能力!也不妨采用下面的建議：如果你發現自己的思想越來越以自我為中心了，停!如果你發現自己在沒完沒了地講廢話，停!如果你發現自己在跟別人攀比，停!你是個有意識的人，何不好好地利用這意識。

Always resist the temptation of comparing yourself with other people.

抵住攀比的誘惑

As humans, we have the natural tendency to compare ourselves with others with the hope of attaining satisfaction. Right now, I'm telling you that this activity does not help you feel to be more grateful in life. It does the opposite! You will always be meeting someone richer, more attractive, more successful and more intelligent than you are. Comparison will just rob you off your self-worth and make you feel inferior to others! Don't do it, please.

作為人類，攀比乃是天性，我們只為得到希望中的滿足感。現在，我要告訴你這種行為于感恩是毫無幫助的。其影響還恰恰相反!畢竟身邊比你更富足，更有魅力，更成功，更聰明的大有人在。攀比只會讓你自掉身價，感覺遠不如人!所以請停止。

Watch your words.

明智地說話

You can feel more grateful in life if you are using more positive and more enlightening words. Words that stress you and make you feel worthless should definitely be eliminated.

如果你的言語更加積極，更加啟迪人心，那你的生活就會愈加感激生活。而那些讓人焦躁，毫無意義的話還是趕緊收回吧。

Appreciate what you have right now.

感激你的現在

The happiest people are those who are contented with what they currently have, not with what they lack. Apply an abundance mindset in your way of thinking – every action begins with the mind, after all.

最快樂的那些人總是會知足常樂，而不會傷懷所缺的。利用知足的心態去考慮---畢竟，行動始于思想。

Acknowledge the past, but move on.

接受已發生的 繼續向前邁步

I'm not saying that you should ignore the past, naturally. That's impossible. What I'm saying is that you should be aware of your past mistakes, past heartbreaks, past failures and past frustrations. Use them as stepping stones. Acknowledge the fact that they did happen in the past and utilize the lessons you learned from them in the present so that you won't experience them in the future. Be more grateful of the bad as well!

要你自然而然地忘掉過去那是不可能的。我的意思是你要意識到過去所犯的錯誤，過去的傷痕，過去的失意以及過去的挫折。將它們看作人生的墊腳石，勇于承認它們確實發生過，并且要吃一塹長一智，以免未來再次發生。即便是脫于理想的事物，我們也要對其感恩。

Help other people and touch their lives meaningfully.

贈人玫瑰，手有余香

There really is nothing more rewarding in this world than helping other people improve their lives. This activity doesn't only make you feel great about yourself – it also makes you value what you have in your life. Go on and sponsor a child's education. Give your old clothes and books to a charitable institution. Donate your time and offer to teach children for free once a week. Hold feeding programs with non-profit organizations.

世上再也沒有什么事能比幫助別人，改善他人生活更加有意義了。善舉不僅會讓你充滿自信---還會讓你審視所有事物的價值。比如資助一個孩子上學，捐贈衣物和書籍給慈善機構，每周花時間給小孩免費補習一次，參與非營利組織的事物供給活動等。

春天的風吹綠了柳梢頭，夏天的風吹散了炎熱，秋天的風吹黃了稻谷，冬天的風吹白了大地，母愛的風吹醒了我的靈魂。

考試是每個學生勞動成果的展示，成績的好與壞直接影響著學生的心情。在期末考試后，成績單到家的那一天，我失望急了，我的英語成績才78分，看完成績單后，我就一言不發地躺在床上，看著天花板??不知過了多久，門忽然開了，媽媽進來坐在我的身邊，不住打量我，突然，媽媽氣憤地對我大聲吼道：“你賴在床上干什么？你沒考好是你自己不用功，這能怪誰??”等媽媽把話說完，我傷心地哭了。

哭累了，把眼淚擦干，我望著慈祥的媽媽。媽媽見我心已冷靜下來，她也恢復了本來面目，深情地對我說：“考試的分數固然重要，但你的主觀努力更重要，只要你盡力了，你的人生中就沒“后悔”兩字??”我的眼睛一亮，精神也好了起來，信心又回到我的身上。 母愛如風，把我的不良情緒吹得無影無蹤，把我的精神吹得倍兒清爽。

當一個人仰望天空，暢想著自己的前程的時候，他第一個想到的最應該是自己未來的家。這就好比現在人們拼命攢錢買房一樣，其實人們所要的不僅僅是一個單純的“巢穴”，而更是一個溫暖的家。這處房子是家的承載，它的外在顯現不出它的深意，而重要的是其中那濃而不膩的親情。

涼風忽起的時候，總會有人把房間的門窗悄悄地關上；被子翻掉的時候，總會有人輕輕地幫你蓋上。煩惱憂心的時候，會有人耐心的勸慰；歡騰喜悅的時候，會有人會心的祝福。當一個榮耀降臨我們身上的時候，第一個為之慶幸的必是我們的家人；當孤獨落寞侵襲我們的心靈的時候，第一個撫慰我們的也必是我們的家人。

three passions 三種激情 -----羅素

《三種激情》是選自《伯特蘭·羅素自傳》的一篇優秀散文。它既是作者心靈的抒發，也是生命體驗的總結。作者以深刻的感悟和敏銳的目光，分析了人生中的三種激情，即對愛的渴望，對知識的追求和對人類苦難的同情。對愛的渴望，使人欣喜若狂，既能解除孤獨，又能發現美好的未來。對知識的追求，使人理解人心，了解宇宙，掌握科學。愛和知識把人引向天堂般的境界，而對人類的同情之心又使人回到苦難深重的人間。作者認為這就是人生，值得為此再活一次的人生。這篇散文似乎信手拈來，但卻耐人尋味。充滿激情，充滿感慨，充滿智慧，情文并茂，邏輯性和感染力極強。

伯特蘭·羅素(bertrand russell,1872-1970)是英國聲譽卓著，影響深遠的哲學家、數學家、邏輯學家和散文家。他生于威爾士的特萊雷克，就讀于劍橋三一學院，在其漫長的一生中完成了40余部著作，涉及哲學、數學、倫理、社會、教育、歷史、宗教及政治等許多領域。他早年的成就主要在數學和邏輯學，中年關注倫理道德、教育、政治，激勵和啟發富有進取精神的人。在1921年曾來中國，在北京大學作過講座。他在1950年榮獲諾貝爾文學獎。在政治上，他反對侵略戰爭，主張和平，晚年參加反戰示威。主要著作有《數學原理》、《哲學大綱》、《教育與美好生活》、《羅素自傳》三卷本。

three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. these ?passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

i have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy –ecstasy so great that i would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. i have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness--that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. i have sought it, finally, because in the union of love i have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. this is what i sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what- at last- i have found.

with equal passion i have sought knowledge. i have wished to understand the hearts of men. i have tried to apprehend the pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flu.

a little of this, but not much, i have achieved.

love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. but always pity brought me back to earth. echoesek?u 重復 of cries of pain reverberate riv?:b?reit 回響in my heart. children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. i long to alleviate?li:vieit減輕 the evil, but i cannot, and i too suffer.

this has been my life. i have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

三種激情 -----羅素

三種激情雖然簡單，卻異常強烈，它們統治著我的生命，那便是：對愛的渴望，對知識的追求，以及對人類苦難的難以承受的同情。這三種激情像變化莫測的狂風任意地把我刮來刮去，把我刮入痛苦的深海，到了絕望的邊緣。

我曾經尋找愛，首先是因為它能使我欣喜若狂——這種喜悅之情如此強烈，使我常常寧愿為這幾個小時的愉悅而犧牲生命中的其他一切。我尋求愛，其次是因為愛能解除孤獨——在這種可怕的孤獨中，一顆顫抖的良心在世界的邊緣，注視著下面冰涼、毫無生氣、望不見底的深淵。我尋求愛還因為在愛的融合中，我能以某種神秘的圖像看到曾被圣人和詩人想象過的天堂里未來的景象。這就是我所追求的東西，雖然這似乎對于人類的生命來說過于完美，但這確實是我最終發現的東西。 我懷著同樣的激情去尋找知識，我曾渴望著理解人心，我曾渴望知道為何星星會閃爍，我還企圖弄懂畢達哥拉斯所謂的用數字控制變化的力量，但在這方面，我只知道一點點。

愛的力量和知識的力量引我接近天堂，但同情之心往往又把我拉回大地。痛苦的哭泣回響、震蕩在我的心中。饑餓的兒童，被壓迫、受折磨的人們，成為兒孫們討厭的包袱的、無助的老人們，充斥著整個世界的孤獨的氣氛，貧窮和苦難，所有這一切都是對人類生活原本該具有的樣子所作的諷刺。我渴望消除一切邪惡，但我辦不到，因為我自己也處于苦難之中。 這就是我的生活，我認為值得一過。而且，如果有第二次機會，我將樂意地再過一次。 relish the moment 擁抱今天

英語經典美文

我們習慣用自己的語言表達情感，時而直接，時而含蓄。不妨用另一種語言來表達對親情、友情、愛情、勵志等感情，用一種和漢語差別較大的語言表達類似的情感，感受一下用英語表達出來的情感有何不同，也是一件有趣的事情。例如以下經過分類的英語經典美文，通過閱讀、理解、誦讀、摘抄，應該會別有一番滋味，而且能夠從文字中體驗外國人對情感的表達方式，加深對不同文化的理解和辨別。

【暑假打工】

summer holiday part-time job

during the summer holiday of 2005, i thought i should do something meaningful instead of staying at home and watching tv. so i got a job at a kfc fast food restaurant and worked there as a cleaner. every day i went to work early in the morning and got home late in the evening. i worked 7 hours a day for three weeks. the job was hard, boring and seemed endless, which made me so tired that i almost quit half way. after all, i stuck to it with my determination.

finally, i finished the job before the new school term began.

now, i understand what labor means. i think it was really a successful experience. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

白了勞動的意義。我認為這是一個真正的成功經驗。

secrets to write a beautiful article

dear worried,

[1] i have received your letter and i’m glad to give you some suggestions. first of all, don’t be disappointed. many students find it difficult to write well. in my opinion, if you want to improve your writing, you should do the following things. first, do some studying with the set phrases and sentence structures. keep a list of them and then try to make some sentences with them. second, read english as much as possible. there are many things that can’t be learnt immediately. you must see them in books many times. then you’ll be able to use them correctly yourself. so, in order to write well, you must learn to read a lot. finally, you’d better recite some good passages. the more passages you read, the better you will write.

篇三：英語經典美文：真實的高貴

True nobility

真實的高貴

In a calm sea every man is a pilot.

在風平浪靜的大海上,每個人都是領航員。

But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life at all.Take the lot of the happiest - it is a tangled yarn.Bereavements and blessings,one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns. Even death itself makes life more loving. Men come closest to their true selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and loss.

但只有陽光沒有陰影,只有快樂沒有痛苦,根本不是真正的生活.就拿最幸福的人來說,他的生活也是一團纏結在一起的亂麻。痛苦與幸福交替出現,使得我們一會悲傷一會高興。甚至死亡本身都使得生命更加可愛。在人生清醒的時刻,在悲傷與失落的陰影之下,人們與真實的自我最為接近。

In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.

在生活和事業的種種事務之中，性格比才智更能指導我們，心靈比頭腦更能引導我們，而由判斷獲得的克制、耐心和教養比天分更能讓我們受益。

I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without. In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.

我一向認為，內心生活開始更為嚴謹的人，他的外在生活也會變得更為簡樸。在物欲橫流的年代，但愿我能向世人表明：人類的真正需求少得多么可憐。

To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance.There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.

反思自己的過錯不至于重蹈覆轍才是真正的悔悟。高人一等并沒有什么值得夸耀的。真正的高貴是優于過去的自已。

經典英語美文(9)

The Importance of Keeping Optimistic

Honourable judges, ladies and gentlemen,

Good afternoon! Today I would like to talk about the importance of

keeping optimistic. When we encounter difficulties in life, we notice that

some of us choose to bury their heads in the sand. Unfortunately, however,

this attitude will do you no good, because if you will have no courage

even to face them, how can you conquer them? Thus, be optimistic, ladies

and gentlemen, as it can give you confidence and help you see yourself

through the hard times, just as Winston Churchill once said, “An optimist

sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in

every opportunity.”

Ladies and Gentlemen, keeping optimistic, you will be able to realize,

in spite of some hardship, there’s always hope waiting for you, which will

lead you to the ultimate success. Historically as well as currently, there

are too many optimists of this kind to enumerate. You see, Thomas Edison

is optimistic; if not, the light of hope in his heart could not illuminate

the whole world. Alfred Nobel is optimistic; if not, the explosives and

the prestigious Nobel Prize would not have come into being. And Lance

Armstrong is also optimistic; if not, the devil of cancer would have

devoured his life and the world would not see a 5-time winner of the Tour

De France.

A rose may be beautiful, or maybe not; that depends on your attitude

only, and so does success, so does life. Hindrances and difficulties do

exist, but if you are optimistic, then they are only episodes on your long

way to the throne of success; they are more bridges than obstacles! Now I

prefer to end my speech with the great British poet Shelley’s lines: “If

winter comes, can spring be far behind?” Thank you!

保持樂觀的重要性

尊敬的評委、女士們、先生們：

下午好！今天我想談一談保持樂觀的重要性。

我們注意到，當在生活中遇到困難時，我們中的有些人選擇逃避它們。但令人遺憾的是，這樣的態度對你沒有任何好處，因為如果你連面對它們的勇氣都沒有的話，你怎么去征服它們呢？因此，樂觀起來吧，女士們、先生們，因為它會帶給你信心，幫助你渡過難關。正如溫斯頓·丘吉爾所說，“樂觀者在每次災難中都看到機遇；悲觀者在每次機遇中都看到災難”。

女士們，先生們，困難是存在的，但如果你保持樂觀，你就會意識到永遠有希望在等著你，它會把你領向最終的成功。不管是歷史上還是現實中，這樣的樂觀者總是不勝枚舉。你看，托馬斯·愛迪生是樂觀的，如果不是的話，他心中那希望的明燈就不能照亮整個世界；阿爾弗雷德·諾貝爾是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那炸藥和享有很高聲望的諾貝爾獎就不會誕生；蘭斯·阿姆斯特朗也是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那癌癥的病魔早已吞噬了他的生命，這個世界就會少了一位五屆環法自行車賽冠軍得主.

玫瑰花可能很美，也可能不美，這，僅僅取決于你的態度；而成功也如此，人生也如此。困難和阻礙的確存在，但是如果你很樂觀的話，那它們就僅僅是我們通向勝利之冠的漫長道路上的小插曲；與其說它們是障礙，不如說它們是橋梁！此刻，我想以偉大的英國詩人雪萊的一句詩來作為我的結尾：“冬天來了，春天還會遠嗎?”謝謝！

經典英語美文閱讀：英國史前巨石陣為病人朝拜地

Archaeologists probing the secrets of Stonehenge, Britain's most famous prehistoric monument said on Monday, it may have been an ancient pilgrimage site for the sick who believed its stones had healing qualities.

考古學家們于本周一公布，英國最著名的史前遺址巨石陣可能是古代病人的朝圣地。據推測，巨石陣的石頭可能被史前人類當作是具有治療功效的幸運石。

It has always been a mystery why bluestones, the smaller stones that form part of the circle, were transported around 155 miles from Preseli Hills in Wales to WiltshIre in southem England. Archaeologists from Boumemouth Ur:uversity, who carried out the dig in April the first at Stonehenge since 1964-believe the bluestones were revered as healing stones. "It was the magical qualities these stones which.., transformed the monument and made it a place of pilgrimage for the sick and injured of the Neolithic world," a statement from the archaeologist team said.Geoffrey Wainwright, president of the Society of Antiquaries of London and one of the experts leading the work, told BBC radio that one reason which lead to the conclusion was because anumber of the burials around Stonehenge showed signs of trauma and deformity.

長期以來，人們;直很困惑，為什么人們要把巨石陣里的一種藍色小石頭從155英里以外的威爾士普利斯里山運到英格蘭南部威爾特郡這里昵?伯恩茅斯大學的考古學家們推測，可能當時的人們信奉這些藍色的石頭具有神奇療效。考古學家于今年4月對史前巨石陣進行了自1964年以來的首次發掘。該考古小組在一份聲明中說：“巨石陣曾經可能只是個紀念碑，但這些具有魔力的石頭被搬來之后，這里就變成了新時器時代傷病者的朝圣地。 ” 倫敦古文物學會主席、考古小組專家杰弗里‘韋恩萊特在接受BBC廣播的采訪時說，得出這一結論的其中一個根據就是，巨石陣附近埋葬了很多傷殘者。

The archaeologists said in the statement that radio-carbon dating put the construction of the circle of bluestones at between 2,400 B.C. and 2,200 B.C.,afew centuries later than originally thought, But they found fragments of charcoal dating from before 7,000 B.C., showing humans were active in the area much earlier than previously thought.

考古學家在一份聲明中說，經放射性碳測年法鑒定，環形巨石陣應該建造于公元前2400年至公元前2200年之間，比之前的推測晚了幾百年。但考古學家還在此發現了公元前7000年前的木炭碎片，這說明在更早的時期已有人類活躍在這一地帶。

During the excavation at the World Heritage Site on Salisbury Plain,the researchers also fourtd a beiker pottery fragment, Roman ceramics and ancient stone hammers. "We now know, mucb to our surprise and delight, that Stonehenge was not just prehistoric monument, it was a Roman and mediaeval monument," said Wainwright, Another of the team leaders, Tim Darvill of Boumemouth University , said the bluestones appeared central to the purpose of Stonehenge although it may have had more than one function. Other theories about Stonehenge are that it was a religious site or that it acted as a calendar.

考古人員還在發掘過程中發現了大口陶器杯的碎片、古羅馬陶器以及古石錘，位于索爾茲伯里平原的史前巨石陣現在已被列入世界文化遺址。韋恩萊特說："現在我們知道了'巨石陣不僅是史前的紀念碑，也是古羅馬和中世紀時期的祭壇，這個發現讓我們十分驚喜。"考古小組的另一位專家、伯恩茅斯大學的蒂姆;達維爾說，巨石陣可能有多種功能，但藍色小石頭應該是其功能的一個重要體現。其他理論認為，巨石陣曾是個宗教場所或是一個日歷等等。

經典英語美文閱讀：絲綢之路話從頭

One of the world's most ancient and historically important trade routes, the Silk Road conjures up exotic images of camel caravans, windswept deserts and such legendary figures as Genghis Khan and Marco Polo. Extending from as far as the Indian kingdoms in the west to present day Xi'an in China in the east, the Silk Road had, by the third centry B.C.,already became a cross roads of Asia.

世界上最古老、歷史上最重要的貿易路線之一_絲綢之路，總給人.種富有異國情調的印象：駱駝商隊、狂風肆虐的沙漠，還有諸如成吉思汗和馬可波羅等傳奇人物。絲綢之路綿亙遠長，西至印度王國，東到中國現在的西安，早在公元前3世紀，絲綢之路就已經成為了亞洲交通的十字路口。

Skirting the edges of the harsh and inhospitable Taklimakan desert, the Silk Road actually had several different branches, each passing through different oasis. All roads began in Chang'an (Xi'an). The northem route wound its way through places such as Turfan and Kuqa before finally ending at Kashgar. Them route followed the lower thnges of the Taklimakan eventually reaching the same destination. Numerous other routes were also plied through out the years, reaching all the way to

Samarkand, Tashkent, India, and the Caspian Sea.

絲綢之路其實有數條支線，它們分別沿著環境惡劣、不適合人類居住的塔克拉瑪干沙漠外緣，穿越不同的綠洲。所有的路線都是始于長安(西安)，北線蜿蜒經過了吐魯番、庫車，最后到達喀什格爾，南線沿著塔克拉瑪干下緣前行，并到達同一終點。其他的許多支線也是歷代都通行的，通往撒瑪爾罕、塔什干、印度，及里海等地。

Silk was not the only commodity traveling the Silk Road. Other goods such as exotic animals, ivory and gold were also transported along the route. It was silk, though, which fascinated the Romans. Agents were sent from Rome to explore the route and to obtain the material at a lower price. The Romans, however, did not give the Silk Road its name. The term was actuallycoined by the 19th-centuryGerman scholar Baron Ferdinand von Richthofen.

絲綢并不是絲綢之路上運送的唯一商品。其他貨物如奇珍異獸、象牙，及黃金等也通過絲綢之路運輸。不過格外令羅馬人著迷的還是絲綢。羅馬派遣代理商探測這條路線，并以較低的價格購得絲綢。然而，“絲綢之路”的名稱并不是羅馬人起的。這個名稱是19世紀時一名叫Baron Ferdinand von Richthofen的德國學者首創的。

Not long after the Tang dynasty era (618-907), when trade along the Silk Road had reached its zenith, the fearsomeGenghis Khan and his Mongol armies conquered a vast area spanning much of Central Asia. Accordingly, the Silk Road became an important communication route between different parts of the Mongol Empire. During the ruleof Kublai,more Europeans began venturing towards China along the Silk Road.The most famous of these travelers was Marco Polo, whose thoughts and

adventures were later recorded and embellished by an Italian romance writer.

唐代是絲綢之路沿途貿易活動的鼎盛時期，在唐代王朝滅亡后不久，令人聞風喪膽的成吉思汗及其蒙古大軍征服了橫跨中亞大部分地區的廣闊領土。絲綢之路于是成為蒙古帝國各部落間重要的交通線路。忽必烈統治期間，更多的歐洲人冒險沿著絲綢之路來到中國。這些旅行者中最出名的就是馬可波羅，他的所見所聞后來被一位意大利傳奇小 說家記載下來，并加以潤色。

During the 14th century , with the disintegration of the Mongol Empire, the isolationist policies of the Ming Dynasty and the development of the silk route by sea, the Silk Road was forced into decline. Renewed interest in it emerged among Westem scholars only near the end of the 19th century . The existence of ancient cities excited them, and an archaeological free-for-all began. These days, those seeking out treasures of the Silk Road can find them in such far-flung places as London, Delhi, and Berlin.

14世紀時，蒙古帝國瓦解、明朝實行閉關政策，加“海上絲路”的發展，絲綢之路被迫走向沒落。直到近19世紀末，才有西方學者重新燃起了對絲綢之路的興趣。古城的存在讓他們興奮不已于是掀起了一陣考古熱潮。現在，想在絲綢之路尋寶的人們，在倫敦、德里、柏林等許多地方，都可以找到他們想要的東西。

突然間，你該做未做的事，仿佛霹靂，在你耳邊炸響。

“搖啊搖，搖我這個小寶寶，一夜到天亮。”

“搖搖籃的手啊……可以搖世界。”

讓我們花一小會兒時間，對那個叫“媽”的人表示敬意，表達感謝，雖然有些人當著面說不出口。媽媽是不可替代的。珍惜與她在一起的每一時刻吧。雖然有時候，她可能不是我們最好的朋友，可能不同意我們的想法，但媽媽就是媽媽！！！她始終陪伴你身邊，聽你的傷心事，聽你吹大牛，聽你把沮喪傾訴……。捫心自問，你是否曾經抽出過足夠的時間陪伴她，聽她講圍著灶臺轉的“傷心事”，講她也會疲勞？？？就算你與她意見不一，也要委婉，充滿愛心，對她表示出應有的尊敬。一旦她去了，剩下的就只有對過去歲月的美好回憶，還有就是終生的遺憾。

不要以為，與你心最近，你就理所應得。

愛她，要甚于愛你自己。

生命中沒有了她，將了無意義……

Cherish every single moment. Though at times she may not be the best of friends, may not agree to our thoughts, she is still your mother!!! She will be there for you...to listen to your woes, your braggings, your frustrations, etc. Ask yourself...have you put aside enough time for her, to listen to her “blues” of working in the kitchen, her tiredness?
