1. 每个人都会有缺陷，就像被上帝咬过的苹果，有的人缺陷比较大，正是

因为上帝特别喜欢他的芬芳。

——《战争与和平》

2. “一年之计在于春”，十几岁的年纪，正是人生的春天，别辜负了岁月老

人的厚爱与恩赐。行动起来，播种梦想吧！

3. 人世间的真情就像一张大网，时刻温暖人的心扉，就如妈妈的爱一样，

永无止境。

4. 只有一条路不能选择，那就是放弃；

只有一条路不能拒绝，那就是成长。

5. 世上没有绝望的处境，只有对处境绝望的人。

6. 春天没有花，人生没有爱，那还成个什么世界。——郭沫若

7. 最深的黑夜即将过去，你看，月亮出来了。

8. 发光并非太阳的专利，我也可以发光。

9. 不求于人相比，但求超越自己，要哭就哭出激动的泪水，要笑就笑出成

长的性格。

10. 一朵孤芳自赏的花只是美丽，一片互相依恃着而怒放的锦绣才是灿烂。

11. 使你疲倦的不是前面的高山，而是你鞋里的一粒沙子。

12. 岁月是一首诗，一首蕴含丰富哲理的是；岁月是一峰骆驼，驮着无数人

的梦想。

13. 假如生活中你失败了，请不要将忧伤的泪水写在脸上。失败也是一种收

获，生活中最重要的是有一份十足的勇气和一个创业的胆量。

14. “蒹葭苍苍，白露为霜。”那一片芦苇不只是提供了背景，也摇曳着情

思，一片起伏的芦苇其实就是心潮的激荡。

15. 一个不爱惜东西的人，就不会疼惜别人，不会珍惜这个世界，有时候连

自己也不懂得珍惜。心灵旧了不懂得修补，最后连丢失了 都不知道。

16. 记不清有多少个夜晚，在我翻阅纸张的指间滑落；记不清有多少支蜡烛，

在我的凝视中化为灰烬。逝者如斯，我时时刻刻会听见自己对生命承诺的余音，感到岁月的流转在渐渐稀释我的年少无知。我愿自己是上足了发条的时钟，在昼夜不停的流转中留下自己充实的一刻。

17. 走过水果店，我常常有一种说不出的感动，那些经过细心安排的水果，

造型色彩都是美的。水晶的梨子，碧玉的西瓜，翡翠的苹果，星星的杨桃，珍珠的葡萄，红宝石的李子，总是发出和珠宝一样令人向往的光彩。 我想，所有的果实都是美的，如果说果树是生命，果实就是树的心，随便怎么摆，都是美的。如果一个人有果实，也是一样。

18. 别在树下 徘徊，别在雨中沉思，别再黑暗中落泪。向前看，不要回头，

只要你勇于面对抬起头来，就会发现，分数的阴霾不过是短暂的雨季，前面还有一片明亮的天，不会使人感到彷徨。

19. 微少的知识使人骄傲，丰富的知识使人谦逊，所以空心的禾穗高傲地举

起头，而充实的禾穗则低头想着大地，向着它们的母亲。

20. 我曾经一再感叹，觉得女儿没什么爱心。因为现实生活中，差不多都是

父母在为她服务，帮她叠被子，帮她倒水，半夜里起来帮她捉蚊子，强迫她喝牛奶，也许因为那些本能的爱，我们已经有些畸形，却忽视了一个最简单的事实，这就是女儿已长大。她不在需要婆婆妈妈 的唠唠叨叨 ，需要的是另一种关爱，是理解。

21. 我们拼命地学习如何成功冲刺一百米，但是没有人教过我们：你跌倒时，

怎么跌得有尊严；你的膝盖颇得血肉模糊时，怎么清洗伤口，怎么包扎；你痛得无法忍受的时候，用什么样的表情去面对别人；你一头栽下时，怎么治疗内心淌血的创痛，怎么获得心灵深层的平静；心像玻璃一样碎了一地时，怎么收拾？

谁教过我们，在跌倒时，怎样的勇敢才真正有用？怎样的智慧才能度

过？跌倒，怎样可以变成远行的力量？失败，为什么往往是人生的修行？何以跌倒过的人，更深刻、更真诚？

我们没有学过！

22. 守住一颗宁静的心，你会由衷的感慨：即使不够快乐，也不要把眉头深

锁，人生本就短暂，为什么我们还要栽培苦涩呢？守住一颗宁静的心，你会明白博大可以稀释忧愁，宁静可以驱散困惑。

23. 年轻的时候

心中的阴影来自那对前路的茫然无知

一切都没有启示与征兆

是的，在这样美丽的夜晚里

生命是可以包含着月光

却不得不在同时也包含了一层透明的哀伤

24. 痛苦是人生旅途中不绝于耳的配乐，正是因为有痛苦，才有对美好的希

冀和相聚的欣喜；有痛苦，才有愈发坚强的意志和永不言败的坚持。有了这些希冀和坚持，你那些因为奋斗而熬红的双眼，因为前进而麻木的四肢，因为攀爬而被划伤的肌肤和因为隐忍而消瘦的轮廓，都会在不远的前方看到，那阴霾的后面，原来是绚烂的绮丽和无尽的阳光。

25. 听，是谁的琴声如此凄凉，低调的音，缓慢的节奏，仿佛正诉说着什么。

音调听的略微有些抖动，听起来似乎也有些抖动，我感觉到一种压抑的沉闷气息，似已凝结在这空气里。

26. 如果是在餐厅，有音乐流淌的地方，我会细嚼慢咽，细细的品味一切；

如果是在商店，有音乐回荡的地方，我会精挑细选，心情流连徜徉；如果独自在家，我一定会先想到放音乐，做家务时，放大音量，让乐声像春江奔流，春雷轰鸣；想读书时，则拧小旋钮，是旋律如风拨琴弦，月光浮动······那些就是我的背景音乐，最好是些纯粹的乐曲，无词无句，或者是一些外语歌曲，听不懂词，也不去辨析内涵，只是任它在耳畔，在心头飘升、回旋。

27. 我们只顾着赶路，把灵魂丢在后面，生命里许多美好的事物如同挂在我

们脖子上的珠子，我们急于奔跑，用力追逐，渴求收获，绷断了脖子上的彩线，被彩线串起的珠子一颗一颗掉了，被身后的烟尘淹没，而我们却浑然不知。我们快步前进忽略了路上一朵花对我们的微笑，一棵草默默在身后捧出的芬芳，一只鸟在头顶自由飞翔划下的美丽弧线。灵魂，像蝌蚪，游离到别的水域，找寻新的风景。

Table Manner餐桌礼仪

作者：孟祥高编辑：铅笔头时间：2013-04-23 12:32

Speaking of table manners， every country or culture has its own characteristics. In China， table manners in our life occupy a very important position. People think that repast （吃饭；就餐） is not only for our basic physiological （生理的） needs， but also for our social needs.

说到餐桌礼仪，每一个国家或者每一种文化都有他的特别之处。餐桌礼仪在中国人的生活中占有一个非常重要的地位，人们认为用餐不单是满足基本的生理需要，也是我们社交的需要。

I think the main difference between Chinese and Western eating habits is that unlike the West where everyone has their own plate of food， the dishes in China are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host， you should be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine（烹饪） and will do their best to show their hospitality （殷勤好客）.

在我看来，西方国家的用餐礼仪与中国的不同之处在于中国的菜肴放在桌上而且大家共同享用。如果你在中国家庭做客，那就准备好你的大胃吧！中国人非常自豪自己的烹饪文化，并且会尽力来显示他们的好客。

Having dinner with English you should not talk about your business. If you do that， there will be no response. On the contrary， it’s OK with the Americans， the talk can go vigorously（活泼地）， and the success rate of your business is high.

与英国人一起用餐，吃饭时就忌谈生意。如果你那样做了，他们是不会加以理睬的。相反，美国人则可边吃边谈，而且还会谈得很起劲，成功率也比较高。 In South Korea and North Korea talking is forbided when peple are having a meal， and they regard this as a courtesy （礼貌；礼节） that everyone should comply with （遵守）. If you speak out of reason， it is possible that people will be disgusted with it. When you are a guest in Korea， it’s better not to take the forth drink and the fourth bowl of rice. 在韩国和朝鲜吃饭时不能边谈边吃，他们把此作为人人应遵守的礼节。如果随便出声，极可能引起人们的反感。到韩国人家做客则要注意不能喝第四杯饮料，不能吃第四碗饭。

Love and Time 爱与时间

作者：陈芬编辑：铅笔头时间：2013-04-23 12:13

once upon a time， there was an island where all the feelings lived： Happiness， Sadness， Knowledge， and all of the others， including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink， so all constructed（建构） boats and left. Except Love. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment. When the island had almost sunk， Love decided to ask for help. Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said， “Richness， can you take me with you？” Richness answered， “No， I can’t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you.” Love decided to ask Vanity （虚荣） who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel （船）. “Vanity， please help me！” “I can’t help you， Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat，” Vanity answered. Sadness was close by， so Love asked， “Sadness， let me go with you” “Oh ... Love， I am so sad that I need to be by myself！” Happiness passed by Love， too. But she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her. Suddenly， there was a voice， “Come， Love， I will take you.” It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed， Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land， the elder went his own way. Realizing how much she was owed to the elder， Love asked Knowledge， another elder， “Who helped me？” “It was Time，” Knowledge answered. “Time？” asked Love. “But why did Time help me？” Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered， “Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.”

从前，在一个岛上，住着所有的情感：幸福、悲伤、知识和所有其他的感情，包括爱。

一天，有人通知那些情感，小岛即将沉没，于是除了爱以外的所有情感都造船离岛了。爱是唯一一个留下的。爱想要坚持到最后一刻。

小岛就要沉没的时候，爱决定寻求帮助。财富乘着一艘华丽的船从爱的身边经过。爱说：“财富，你能带上我吗？”财富回答说：“不，不行，我的船上载满金银财宝，你来了没有地方待。”虚荣坐在漂亮的小船中从爱的身边驶过，爱决定去求一求虚荣。“虚荣，请帮帮我！” “我爱莫能助。爱，你浑身湿透，会弄脏我的船。”虚荣回答。悲哀就在旁边，于是爱问道：“悲哀，请带我走

吧。”“哦……爱，我太难过了，我需要独自待会儿！”幸福也经过爱的身边，但她太开心了，根本没听见爱在呼唤。突然，有一个声音说道：“来，爱，我带你走。” 声音来自一位长者。爱太高兴了，太喜出望外了，甚至忘了问他们即将去哪儿。到达陆地后，长者继续赶路了。爱非常感激他，她觉着自己欠长者一个人情，便问知识——另一位老者： “帮我的那个人是谁呀？”“是时间。”知识回答。“时间？”爱问道，“但是，时间为什么帮助我呢？”深邃而睿智的知识微笑着回答：“因为只有时间才能够理解爱有多么宝贵。”

Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again. —C. S. Lewis

I do not remember the first fairy tale I ever heard, but I do, however, remember the first one I saw: Disney’s Cinderella（灰姑娘）. I was mesmerized（如痴如醉）, entranced（着迷）. There were songs, laughs, talking animals, happy endings—everything to make a young girl happy. Then in middle school I was given The Grimm Brother’s Fairy Tales. What a horrifying change from the 2D-Disney utopia（乌托邦）! Feet got chopped off, eyes got pecked out（啄）—it was terrifying, but it was also eye-opening. These stories weren't just pretty and light-hearted, they had messages. This month we’ll be focusing on the many different dimensions that fairytale can encompass, and the diverse effects it can have on a reader. Of course, this can be both negative and positive. In Educating Our New Cinderellas we learn a little about the adverse psychological effects of fairy tales, while How Fairy Tales Shape Our Life tells about the positive influence that these stories can give. However, it’s not always the same for everyone.

One girl remembers, in Hansel and Gretel（在糖果屋）: a Tale on the Run, how a fairy tale shaped her life—both positively and negatively, but mostly humorously. Arguably, the reason that fairy tales may be able to affect us so differently could be that they themselves change so frequently. The Evolution of Riding Hood （红帽）demonstrates how a fairy tale can evolve with culture, eventually becoming a reflection of both history and values.

For most of us, the word “fairytale” holds a special meaning. Whether it’s a book, a movie, or an effect, is up to the individual. But understanding that there is more than just our one impression, our individual experience, is a lesson that fairytale is willing to offer all of us—and we can all live happily ever after.

YOU. In all time before now and in all time to come, there has never been and will never be anyone just like you. You are unique in the entire history and future of the universe. Wow! Stop and think about that. You're better than one in a million, or a billion, or a gazillion(极大数)…

You are the only one like you in a sea of infinity!!!

You're amazing! You're awesome! And by the way, TAG, you're it. As amazing and awesome as you already are, you can be even more so. Beautiful young people are the whimsey（怪念头）of nature, but beautiful old people are true works of art. But you don't become "beautiful" just by virtue of the aging process.

Real beauty comes from learning, growing, and loving in the ways of life. That is the Art of Life. You can learn slowly, and sometimes painfully, by just waiting for life to happen to you. Or you can choose to accelerate your growth and intentionally devour life and all it offers. You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today.

Paint a Masterpiece. God gives every bird its food, but he doesn't throw it into its nest. Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to do, it's truly up to you.

生命掌握在你的手里--超越卓越的你 试想一下……你！一个空前绝后的你，不论是以往还

是将来都不会有一个跟你一模一样的人。你在历史上和宇宙中都是独一无二的。哇！想想吧，你是万里挑一、亿里挑一、兆里挑一的。

在无穷无尽的宇宙中，你是举世无双的！！！ 你是了不起的！你是卓越的！没错，就是你。你已经是了不起的，是卓越的，你还可以更卓越更了不起。美丽的年轻人是大自然的奇想，而美丽的老人却是艺术的杰作。但你不会因为年龄的渐长就自然而然地变得“美丽”。

真正的美丽源于生命里的学习、成长和热爱。这就是生命的艺术。你可以只听天由命, 慢慢地学，有时候或许会很痛苦。又或许你可以选择加速自己的成长，故意地挥霍生活及其提供的一切。你就是手握今日之刷描绘自己未来的艺术家。

画出一幅作吧！ 上帝给了鸟儿食物，但他没有将食物扔到它们的巢里。不管你想要去哪里，不管你想要做什么，真正做决定的还是你自己。

天天读此篇，定能积累你对自己的信心！（心理暗示作用）

Learn to Live in the Present Moment

To a large degree, the measure of our peace of mind is determined

by how much we are able to live in the present moment.

Irrespective of what happened yesterday or last year,

or what may or may not happen tomorrow, the present moment is where you are—always!

Without question,many of us have mastered the neurotic art

of spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things—all at once.

We allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments,

so much so that we end up anxious, frustrated,depressed, and hopeless.

On the flip side, we also postpone our gratification, our stated priorities,

and our happiness,often convincing ourselves that“someday” will be better than today. Unfortunately, the same mental dynamics that tell us to look toward the future

will only repeat themselves so that “someday” never actually arrives.

John Lennon once said,“Life is what’s happening while we’re busy making”,

our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away busy dying,

our bodies are getting out of shape, and our dreams are slipping away.

In short, we miss out on life.

Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal for some later date.

It isn’t.

In fact, no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow.

Now is the only time we have, and the only time that we have any control over. When our attention is in the present moment, we push fear from our minds. Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future

we won’t have enough money, our children will get into trouble,

we will get old and die, whatever.

To combat fear, the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention back to the present. Mark Twain said,“I’ve lived through many terrible things in my life,

some of which actually happened.”

I don’t think I can say it any better.

Practice keeping your attention on the here and now.

Your efforts will pay great dividends.
