第二篇：英语美文(中英文)

1．The Two Roads两条路

It was Christmas Eve，an aged man was standing on the balcony ，with uneasy，alarmed and pessimistic expression； He sighed for his miserable fate, and raised his sad eyes, gazed at the sparking stars in the deep blue sky. A falling star depicted a curve in the sky and disappeared, which seemed like the symbol of his life.

Then he cast them below his floor, where a few more desperate people than him were moving towards their inevitable destination-the grave. He had already expended sixty years on the way leading to it, and he had acquired nothing but agony and regret. Now his health was poor, his mind was vacant, his heart was sorrowful, and his life was short of comforts.

The days of his youth appeared like dreams floating in his brain, and he recalled the strategic moment when he stood at the access to two roads- At the end of the first road, it was a peaceful and sunny place. It was covered with delicate flowers, fascinating bamboo forest, bunches of attractive grapes. There lived cute deer, tame lambs, and flying butterflies and echoed with the merry, sweet laughter. There were also winding tracks and honey peach trees dotted the graceful landscape.

At the end of the second road, it was a damp and dull cave, which was an absolute hell of great bulk. It was covered with moist ponds and marshes, nasty, ditches and jungles, chilling and thrilling jails, all around was emitting the stale acid flavor. There lived evil devils, giant monsters, poisonous snakes, and echoed with the horrible barking of wolves. It was full of spiders, bats, frogs, damn rats, offensive bugs and other crawling insects.

He looked up to the sky and shouted aloud,“O youth, return! Return !”

And his youth did return, for all this was only a nightmare which he had on Christmas Eve. He was still young though his faults were real; he had not yet entered the damp and dull cave, and he was still free to walk on the road which led to the peaceful and sunny land.

Those youngsters, who are still wandering at the entrance of life and hesitating to choose the bright road, remember that when years have passed and your feet are limping in the dark cave, you will cry bitterly, but in vain; “O youth, return! Oh give me back my early days!” 1.两条路

圣诞节前夜，一位老人伫立在阳台上，面带不安、忧虑和悲伤的表情。他哀叹着自己悲惨的命运，抬起黯然失神的双眼凝视着深蓝色的天空中闪烁的星星。一颗陨落的星星划出一道弧线后消失了，那似乎是他生命的象征。

他将目光投向地面，几个比他更加绝望的人正在走向人生必然的终点—坟墓。在通往人生终点的道路上，他已经过了60多个年头，除了痛苦和悔恨，他一无所获。现在，他身体虚弱，精神空虚，心情忧郁，缺少晚年应有的舒适。青春的岁月如梦幻般浮现在他的脑海里，他回想起当他站在人生岔口上的关键时刻。当时，他面前有两条路—

第一条路的尽头，是一个和平、阳光普照的地方。那里有娇嫩的鲜花、迷人的竹林、一串串诱人的葡萄、可爱的小鹿、温顺的羊羔、翩飞的蝴蝶，到处回荡着愉快甜美的笑声，还有弯弯曲曲的小路和小蜜桃树点缀着那里优美的风景。

第二条路的尽头，是一个犹如地狱般潮湿阴暗的巨大山洞。那里遍布着潮湿的池塘和沼泽、肮脏的水沟和丛林、阴冷而恐怖的牢狱，四周散发着陈腐的酸味，那里有恶魔、巨兽和毒蛇，回荡着令人毛骨悚然的狼嚎声。随处可见的是蜘蛛、蝙蝠、青蛙、老鼠、令人讨厌的臭虫和其他昆虫。

他仰望天空，大声地哭喊：“哦，青春，你回来吧！回来吧！”

他的青春真的回来了，因为以上所发生的一切只是他在平安夜做的一场噩梦。他仍旧年轻，虽然的确犯过一些错误，但还未坠入深渊；他仍然可以自由地走上通往和平与光明的道路。

在人生的十字路口徘徊，不知该不该选择光明大道的年轻人啊，你们千万要记住：当你青春已逝，双足在黑暗的山洞举步维艰，跌跌撞撞之时，你才痛疾首地呼唤：“哦，回来吧，青春！哦，把我的美好年华还给我！”这将毫无意义。

2 .The House with a Golden Window 带有金色窗户的房子

In the bowels of a mountain of frontier zone, a little boy lived in a crude house, which could only accommodate five people of his household. There was not any railroad, freeway highway or even a pub (an inn) around the mountain .His ancestors and he were the exclusive inhabitants on the mountain for several centuries.

As he was 6 years old, he could see a wonderful house across the valley on a higher altitude of the other mountain, which had a golden window. He

fancied that the emperor, prince and princess in fable must have been living in that kind of house. Sometimes, in order to assure himself that it was an authentic house, the innocent boy often stared at it, with exceeding thirst for living in it.

6 years later, the little boy believed that he had acquired plentiful knowledge and skills to dominate his life. Accordingly, he made a farewell to his parents, and flung himself on the road with a manual kit, which was made of the fabric that was weaved by his mother. There was a coil of nylon cord, a saw and other implements in it.

In spite of the hindrance of the muddy and slipper slope, for the impulse of his keen desire, he probed the road with a stick and proceeded towards the house consistently.

As he mounted the summit, he focused on the trail that led to the house and then on it. It seemed to appear an abnormal phenomenon-the house vanished weirdly and was replaced by a ugly house, which was comparable with his little house, and it windows were plain and rather dirty.

After opening the door, he found that the house was a discarded mill in a state of disorder. In the center of the house, the tools which could grind wheat into flour were covered with thick dust and the trace of mice, a rude donkey saddle and some stained sacks lying nearby it. In one corner, a primitive rack was full of cracks, spider was spinning web on it, and some fragments of mat were underneath it. In another corner, there was a stack of straw in mess, a rusted spade and a leaky barrel. The little boy was extremely disappointed. When he was ready to leave, he detected a sight which amazed him –there was his little house across the valley on the lower mountain and its window was shining with golden color- as the midday daylight (sunshine) was shinning on the glass of its window… This story gives us a hint (cue) that we shouldn’t be blind to the welfare in our real life. What we need is to adjust and convert our ritual notions (concepts), to find and enjoy the happiness that belongs to us. 2.带有金色窗户的房子

在边远地区的大山深处，有个小男孩一家五口住在一间简陋的屋子里。大山的周边没有任何铁路、高速路、公路甚至小客栈。几百年以来，他和他的祖辈是这座山上唯一的住户。

当小男孩6岁时，隔着山谷他看见另一座更高的山峰上有一个漂亮的带有金色窗户的房子！他想

象着传说中的皇帝、王子和公主一定也住在那样的房子里。有时，为了使自己确信那是真正的房子，天真的小男孩经常凝望它，梦想着自己能住在里面。

6年后，小男孩觉得自己已经有足够的知识和技能来主宰自己的生活。因此，他告别了父母，背着母亲亲手纺织的帆布包匆匆上路了。背包里装着一卷尼龙绳，一把锯子和一些其他工具。

虽然泥泞光滑的山坡阻碍他的行程，但由于内心强烈的渴望，他用一个树枝探路，坚持不懈地朝着那个房子前进。

当登上山顶，他的目光从通向房子的小路移到那座房子。似乎发生了一个异常的现象 — 那个房子神秘地消失了，取而代之的是一个丑陋的，跟他家类似的小房子，房子的窗户很普通而且很脏。

打开房门，他才发现那是一个杂乱不堪的，被废弃的磨坊。房屋中间的磨具上覆盖着的厚厚的灰尘和老鼠的足印，旁边是一个粗糙的驴鞍和脏兮兮的麻袋片。房屋角落里，老式的搁物架满是裂纹，一只蜘蛛正在上面结网，架子下面是一些草席的碎片。房屋另一个角落是一堆乱糟糟的稻草，一把锈迹斑斑的铁锹和满是漏洞的水桶。

小男孩非常失望。正当他准备离开的时候，小男孩吃惊地发现——隔着山谷在低处的那个山峰上，他家的房子闪烁着金光——当时正午的太阳带正照耀着房子的窗玻璃??

这个故事启示我们不能对现实生活中的幸福视而不见。我们需要不断调整和转变我们一贯的观念，发现并享受属于我们的快乐。 3 .The view out of window 窗外的风景

Two men, both in serious illness, occupied the same ward of a hospital. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to undergo therapy and drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room’s only window .The other man had to lie flat on his back all the time.

The two men talked for hours on end. They talked about their families, their jobs, their experiences in the military service and a whole lot of things. Every afternoon when the man in the bed next to the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the outdoor things he could see through the window.

The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and restored to freshness by all the activities and view of the outside world. The window

overlooked a park with a lovely stream and a stone bridge, the man said. Ducks and geese played in the water while kids sailed their model boats a gang of lads played volleyball on the lawn nearby the bridge .Lovers walked arm in arm amid blooms of brilliant colors. A range of grand oaks and some flourishing palms graced the spectacular landscape. As the man by the window described all these in vivid details, the man or the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the magnetic scenery, which gave him deep impression.

One fine afternoon the man by the window described a troop (procession) of soldiers striding across the square of downtown. Although the other man could not hear the band, he was charmed by the invisible scene.

Unexpectedly, a thought entered his head: why should he have all the pleasure of seeing everything while I never get to see anything? It seemed unfair. As the thought arose in his mind, the man felt upset and annoyed at first .But with several days passing, his inward (internal) envy turned into resentment and soon turned him sour. He turned indifferent and isolated, almost neglected all the surroundings.Then, a wicked intention controlled his life- he should lie by that window. He almost couldn’t withstand the torture of his intention, and sighed from dawn to dusk. Finally, his health became worse and worse, but the doctors couldn’t find the cause.

Later one night, as he lay staring at the ceiling, abruptly, the man by the window began to cough. He was choked by the fluid in his lungs. The other man peered his panic expression and quivering fingers in the dim room as the man by the window exerted all his strength for the button to call for help. At the critical moment, listening to his crawling (creeping)sound across the room, the other man disguised that he had been fallen asleep, never moved, never pressed down his own handy button which would have brought the nurse coming. It lasted about five minutes, and then the sound of cough and breath stopped. There was only silence-deathly silence.

The following morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths. When she found the rigid lifeless body of the man by the window, with enormous grief, she called the hospital maid to take it away –no words, no fuss.

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

Slowly, with the acute ache, he sustained himself up on one elbow, and strained to turn to look out of the window. It was incredible that he faced a blank wall.

3.窗外的风景

两名患有重病的男人住在同一间病房。每天下午其中的一位都要在床头坐上一个小时以接受治疗并排空肺部的积液。他的病床临窗，那是病房里唯一的窗子。另一位却不得不整天卧在病床上。 两个人一聊就是数小时。他们谈各自的家庭、工作和当兵的经历，真是无所不谈。每天下午当临窗的男人从床上坐起时，他都要向自己的室友描述窗外看到的一切，以此来打发时光。

临床的男人开始为这一小时而活着，只有这一刻听着对有关窗外世界的一切活动和景色的描述，他的世界才变得开阔并恢复了生机。透过窗户可以看到一个公园，公园里面有条小溪和一座石桥。鸭子和鹅在水中嬉戏，小孩们玩着自己心爱的模型船。一群少年在草地上打排球。年轻的情侣携手漫步于姹紫嫣红的花丛中。一排伟案的橡树和几棵茂盛的棕榈树美化着这引人入胜的风景、、、、、、、当窗外的男士娓娓道出这一切时，房里另一边的男士就会闭上眼睛想象那如画的风景。一幅幅美丽的风景给他留下了深刻的印象。

一个晴朗的下午，窗外的人描述起外面一队士兵正大踏步的穿过市区的广场。虽然听不见乐队的奏乐声，但他还是被这看不见的场景吸引了。 出乎意料的是，不靠窗的病人突然产生了一个想法：为什么偏偏是他有幸观赏到窗外的一切？为什么自己没有机会得到这种机会的？这似乎不公平。起初，他为自己的这种想法感到不安和烦恼。几天后，他内心的妒忌变成了愤怒，脾气也变坏了。他变得冷漠孤僻，无视周围的一切。然后，一个邪恶的想法形成了-他应该躲在靠窗的病床上。他整天唉声叹气，难以承受这一想法的折磨。结果，病情一天天加重了。医生们对其病因不得而知。 一天晚上，他照例睁着双眼盯着天花板，他的同伴突然开始咳嗽，积液已经充满了他的肺腔。在光线暗淡的房间里，他瞥了一眼同伴惊慌的表情，他两手颤抖着，在摸索电铃的按钮，只要电铃一响，值班的护士就会立即赶来。在那关键时刻，听着病友在房间里爬行的声音，他却假装已经入睡、纹丝不动地看着，没有按下手边的按钮。大约5分钟以后，咳嗽声和呼吸声都停止了，四围死一般的寂静。

第二天早上，日间护士端水到病房，却只发现了窗边那个男人僵直的躯体，他已经在睡梦中安详地死去。她十分悲痛，打电话叫医院的护工将尸体抬走。

等到一个适当的机会，病房里的另一个男人请求搬到靠窗的床铺。护士很乐意，帮他调换了床铺，把一切安排妥当，她就走了。

伴着剧烈的疼痛，他缓慢而艰难地用单肘支撑起自己，挣扎着向窗外望去。令他难以置信的是-他发现自己面对的是一面空白的墙壁。 4. Four wives in our life 生命中的四位爱人

In former days, there was a wealthy merchant, who owned billion acres of fertile land, a considerable sum of property and multiple compounds (estates). He was the acknowledged leader at home and had four wives.

He had the greatest affection on the fourth wife, who enjoyed the beautiful brows and face- a fairy in his eyes. To amuse her, the merchant gave her a life of luxury, bought her fashionable blouses and boots, and took her out to dine on delicious food. Each of their marriage anniversary, he would celebrate.

He was also fond of his third wife very much. She was an amateur poet with great literacy and dignity. To approve of her, he gave her prevailing poetry as present, visit museums with her to see the antiques and went to the concerts to enjoy music of great musicians and pianists. He was very proud off her, introduced and showed off her to his friends. Nevertheless, he was always in great fear that she might go elsewhere with some other guys.

His second spouse, too, won his preference. As a cashier, she was keen, capable and energetic in commercial issues. Whenever he faced critical problems, he always turned to his second wife. And she’d always attempted to help him cope with the problems such as cash collection or the conflicts with clients. Hence, to thank his second wife, he went to excursion with her for entertainment every several years.

His first wife was a very conservative and faithful partner. She was a woman of goodness and honesty. As a housewife, she had made great contributions to nourishing children, caring husband and doing housework. Accidentally, she appeared to be a little clumsy and ignorant. Although the merchant had a prejudice towards her, she maintained her patience to wait for him to come back to her .She was a woman of great breadth of mind.

After many years, the merchant fell deadly ill for abusing alcohol. He knew it couldn’t cure. He was pale and stiff. When he reflected on his lifetime, he couldn’t help yelling; “now I have 4 wives. But when I die, I’ll be solitary. How lonely I’ll be!’’

Suffering from the sting of the body, he asked the fourth wife, “I have attached to you the most affection, and bought pretty clothes to you and spent every festival with you. Now I’m dying, will you follow me?” “Pardon? I am not a self-sacrificing saint. No way!” the fourth wife, who was sipping tea idly in her fur overcoat, defied him.

The answer made the merchant feel fiercely disappointed on her conscience. Then he asked the third wife, “Do you remember our romantic experience? Now that I’m dying, will you follow me?” the third wife glimpsed against him. “No!” she denied. “I couldn’t bear tedious life in hell. I deserve a better life. Consequently it is of necessity that I marry other guys afterwards. Then she was calculating the route to other millionaire’s home.

The answer also hurt the merchant, and then he resorted to the second wife, “you’ve always facilitated me out. Now I barely beg you once more, when I die, will you follow me?” “I’m sorry!” she frowned, claiming, “I can only attend your funeral ceremony. The answer came like a bolt of thunder and the merchant felt like being discarded. Then she was modifying the items of a business contract.

Then a voice wept: we are bond couple. I’ll go alongside with you wherever you go. The merchant awoke, stroking his first wife’s coarse palm. She was so lean. Thinking of her fatigue year after year, he was greatly touched and said miserably, I should have treasured you before! Then she was doing the laundry for him.

Virtually, we all respectively have four wives in our lives. The fourth tender wife represents our body. Despite the fact that we spend time making it look good, it’ll distract from us when we die. Our third wife is our possessions, remarkable fame, or noble status. When we die, they all go to eternal collapse. The second wife is our family, friends, colleagues or acquaintances. Regardless how close we have relied on them when we’re alive, what they can do for us is coming to the funeral at the utmost. The first wife is in fact our holy soul, which is often neglected in our

pursuit of material and wealth. It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go. We should cultivate it now, otherwise, we will possibly feel regret in the end.

4.生命中的四位爱人

从前，有一位富有的商人，家有良田万顷，大量财富和多处庄园。在家里，他说一不二。他有四位爱人。

他最钟爱他最小的妻子，她有着姣好的面容，在他眼里简直就是个仙女。为了讨好她，商人给她最奢华的生活，给她买时髦的衣裳，吃美味的佳肴。他们的每个结婚纪念日都要庆祝。

商人也很爱第三们妻子。她是一位业余诗人。她喜欢风雅，知书达理，端庄典雅。为了满足她的个人爱好，商人送她流行诗集，陪她参观博物馆的古董，听著名音乐爱的音乐会。他为她感到骄傲，把她介绍给朋友们，并常把好作为在朋友面前炫耀的资本。但他同时也忧心忡忡，怕她跟其他男人跑了。

当然，商人也爱第二位妻子。她是个管账的。生意上的事，她既热心又能干。每每遇到棘手的问题，他就会向她求助，而她也总能尽力帮他解决诸如筹钱，或与顾客之间的争执等事情。因此，作为答谢，商人每隔几年都会跟她出去游玩消遣。 商人的第一个妻子是一个保守的人，也是一位忠诚的伴侣。她善良诚实。作为一个家庭主妇，她照顾丈夫，养育儿女，做家务活。偶尔，她略有些笨拙和木讷。尽管商人对她有成见，她也不恼，很有耐心地等丈夫回心车转意。看来，她是一个胸怀宽广的女子。 几年以后，商人因酗酒病重，他自知无法治愈，将不久于人世。他脸色苍白，身体僵硬。当他回顾自己的一生，不禁叫道：“现在我虽然有四个妻子相伴，但死后却要孤零零一人。多寂寞啊！” 忍着剧痛，他问小老婆：“我最疼你，给你买最漂亮的衣服，每个节日都陪你过。现在我就要离开这个世界了，你愿意陪我而去吗？”“什么？我又不是圣人！绝对不可能！”此刻，她正身穿裘皮大衣，悠闲地喝着茶。

商人对小老婆的回答非常地失望。伤心的商人继而问第三个妻子：“你记得我们的浪漫经历吗？如今，我将不久于人世，你愿意陪我而去吗？”“不！”她拒绝道，“我无法忍受乏味的生活，我有权享受好的生活。因此，不久以后我会改嫁他人。”此刻，她正考虑着去其他富翁家的路线呢。

第三位妻子的回答也伤害了他，他再转向第二位妻子，问道：“你过去常常为我排忧解难。现在我想再请你帮一次忙。我死后，你愿意随我而去？”她皱了皱眉说道，“我只能参加你的葬礼仪式。”这

句话犹如晴天霹雳，商人彻底觉得被抛弃了。此刻，她正在修改一个商业合同的条款。 这是时，一个声音哭泣道：“我愿意随你一同离去。无论你到哪里，我都跟着你。”商人猛然惊醒，抚摸着大老婆粗糙的手掌。她是那么消瘦，又想到她年复一年，日夜操劳，一时心痛不已。商人悲痛地说：“我以前应该好好地珍惜你啊！此刻，大老婆正在为他洗衣服。

其实，我们每个人的一生都有四位妻子相伴。最小的娇弱的妻子代表我们的躯体。即使我们花时间去装扮她，我们死后它终会弃我们而去。第三位妻子代表我们的财产、显赫的名声或尊贵的地位。一旦我们撒手西去，它终究会烟消云散。第二位妻子代表我们的家人、朋友、同事或熟人。我们活着的时候，无论多么亲近，他们最多也只能到幕前送我们最后一程。第一位妻子则是我们的圣洁的灵魂。当我们沉迷于追求物质、金钱或感官享受的时候，她常常会被遗忘在一旁。实际上，她才是唯一与我们永远相伴的。我们就应该从现在开始悉心照顾好她，而不是等到临终之际才悔恨不已。

6 Those days in your life –for your beloved mother 生命中的岁月-献给敬爱的母亲

When you were 12 years old, you were fascinated with chess and painting. She invited chess coach for you, bought you painting brushes and took you to galleries.

You thanked her by being careless about your studies, drawing portraits of teachers in class. When you were 15 years old, she took you to learn to play the violin and trumpet in an orchestra, and paid you for summer camp abroad,

You thanked her by going to bars to listen to jazz and pop music secretly, by being cynical to her so-called classic art and her tunnel vision.

When you were 20 years old, you began to date with your girlfriend. You learnt to play the guitar and went to gymnasium for girlfriend. She was concerned about you, telling this to you aunts in neighborhood accidentally.

You thanked her by disputing with her, “I am an adult, You needn’t worry about me!”

You thanked her by trying to convince her to live with you, but she declined (refused)/

When you were 45 years old, with the oxygen mask, she was taken away by an ambulance due to an acute epidemic.

You thanked her by thinking she actually shouldn’t fall ill at the crisis of your career.

Then one day in autumn, she quietly died.

In front of her ashes, you looked through your sometime albums, and the fragments of your life came into illusion; an infant, a younger and a mature man in the end. Suddenly you perceived that there was no substitute for mother. Though sometimes she might think awkwardly or might not consent to your opinions, she was still your mother! All that she did was for the welfare of you.

6.生命中的岁月-献给敬爱的母亲 你来到人世，她抱你在怀。

你却夜夜喝醉，在客厅里一根接一根地抽烟。 你40岁时，渐渐从失意中走了出来，成了知名的小说家。她对你表示由衷的祝贺。 你邀请她跟你一块住，她谢绝了。 你45岁时，她因感染急性流行病，带着氧气面罩被救护车拉走了。

你却心里想，她真不该在你事业的关键时刻生病。

后来有一个秋天，她悄悄地走了。

面对她的骨灰，你慢慢翻看以前的相册，成长的点点滴滴历历在目：从婴儿，到青年，到现在。你突然间意识到，母亲是不可代替的。尽管有时候，她的想法很奇怪，尽管有时你们达成一致，但她始终是母亲，她所做的一切都是为了你的幸福。

7 The expectation of grandfather 爷爷的期望 We made every effort to assure a better life for our kids but our attempt proved to be an abortion. For my grandchildren, would know better.

I hope you follow your priest’s suggestion to read the Bible in your spare time, though you have no religious belief. I hope you consult with the veterans (stagers) frequently.

When you disagree others, you should not only dare to argue, but also be patient to hear your opponents’ arguments and remember that weapon can’t be the terminal solution,

I hope you learn to drive a crane or mend the semiconductor radio. A craft will ensure that you won’t be starved forever.

I hope you know there is not only applause, medals and crowns , but also failure, defeat and dilemma in the world; there are not only peace, equality and cooperation but also controversy collision and contradiction , or even traps , cruelty and deception in the world ,

I hope you show charity to the cripples, I hope you could help others sincerely at your convenience by doing some minor things, such as vacuuming the house for your mom, shifting the tire for Mister Smith or stopping in highway when somebody thumbs a ride.

I hope you have ever mounted a high mountain equipped with a compass and torch. I also hope nobody would send you a brand-new auto before you’re 20.

My cherished grandson, I hope you compute the sending of your allowance and make a timetable or an agenda lest time click away without your consciousness.

My dear grandson, I want you to put down your briefcase, leave your urban life with air-condition, internet and vehicles, and take a break at hometown when you are tired , I surely hop you could accompany grandpa to have a haircut or see the dentist or have a chat with your grandma. 7.爷爷的期望

我们竭尽全力想让我们的儿女们过得更好，而结果却无济于事。对我的孙辈们，我就明智得多了。 我希望你听众神父的建议。闲时读读《圣经》，虽然你自己并没有宗教信仰。

我希望你多向经验丰富的人请教。 我希望你在跟别人起冲突时，勇于为自己辩护，但是，也要有耐心倾听对手的声音，切记武力并不能解决所有问题。

我希望你能学一门手艺，比方说开起重机或修半导体收音机等。一技在身，吃穿不愁。

我希望你知道这个世界上不仅有掌声、勋章和皇冠，也会有失败、挫折和困境；不仅有和平、平

等和合作，也会有争论、冲突和矛盾，甚至会有陷阱、残忍和欺骗。

我希望你对伤残人士表现出同情。我希望你能真诚地帮助别人，做些力所能及的小事。比如，帮妈妈用吸尘器清扫房间，帮史密斯先生换汽车轮胎或是在路上让别人搭车等等。

我真的希望你曾带着指南针和手电筒，爬上过高山。我也希望没有人在你20岁之前送你一辆轿车。

我的宝贝孙子，我希望你们学会做计划，不要花光所有的零花钱，不要让时间在不经意间流逝。 我亲爱的孙子，最后希望你，工作累了，就放下公文包，离开那有着网络、空调和车辆的都市生活，回家乡休息一下。我当然也希望你有时间陪爷爷理个发，看看牙医或是陪奶奶聊聊天。

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of red lips, straight waist or vigorous body. It is a matter of magnificent imagination, steady determination, unique character and abundant emotion; it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.

Youth means an infinite courage and self-confidence over huge challenges, means a precise target and persistent action over worthless complaints. This often exists in an elderly man more than a chap . Nobody grows merely by the number of years; we grow old by deserting our ideas.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm will wrinkle the soul worry, fear and self-distrust bow the heart and turn the spirit back to dust.

There is in every human being’s heart the temptation of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of whats next and the joy of the game of living, in the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, you will keep young forever. 9青春

青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是红润的双唇、坚挺的腰身或强健的身体，而是宏伟的想象、坚定的信心、独特的个性和丰富的情感；青春是生命的源头在涌动。

青春意味着无限的勇气和自信压倒巨大的挑战，明确的目标和持续的行动压倒无聊的抱怨。如此锐气，小伙子有之，老年人则更多见。年年有加，并非垂老；理想抛弃，方堕暮年。

岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；但热忱抛却，颓唐必至灵魂。烦忧、惶恐、缺乏自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。

每个人的心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存。 10.Friends 朋友

Friends play an important ole in our life. In pleasure, friends will share happiness together with you; in depression, friends will unburden your anxiety, sorrow, distress or puzzle, and cheer you up; in hesitation, the frank suggestion from friends can make you confident and vigorous.

When you encounter difficulties, the spiritual of financial aid of friends can easily confirm your belief to accomplish your objective. Furthermore, an intimate and loyal friend is also a healthy outlet of your negative feelings such as complaint, hatred or even curse.

Indeed, friends are those who willingly and readily help us when we are in trouble, and show sympathy for us when we are in misery. To make friends, some factors must be taken into account such as age, race, intelligence and individual passion. Although these ingredients are not of prime importance, it is more difficult for us to get on with others when there is a marked difference in age and background.

Normally speaking, a permanent friendship needs mutual tolerance and understanding. 10.朋友

朋友在我们生命中扮演着重要的角色。快乐时朋友和你一起分享快乐；沮丧时，朋友可以分担你心中的焦虑、悲伤、担忧或迷惑。犹豫时，朋友的建议可以使你充满信心和活力。

当你遇到困难时，在朋友的精神支持或资金援助下，你可以顺利地实现你的目标；而且，亲密忠诚的朋友也是你抱怨、憎恨甚至是诅咒的发泄口。 其实，朋友就是那些在我们遇到困难时乐意帮助我们、在我们悲伤时同情我们的人。交朋友必须考虑诸如年龄、种族、智力水平和个人感情等因素。虽然这些因素并非至关重要，但当人们的年龄与背景方面存在明显差异时，他们往往较难相处。 一般来说，长久的友谊需要相互的容忍和理解。 11.Variety is the source of creativity 变化是创造力的源泉

Variety is the source of creativity. Variety injects the fluid of creativity into the most hollow minds. To ensure a triumphant career, variety combined with flexibility to fit in diverse circumstances is the major truth nowadays.

No housing can be constructed in one single day. The more one explores, the more different dimensions one will observe which can help to

complete a job. It is logical to choose the best way of doing a thing among various available options. Innovation is your own discovering an unusual way to fulfil your aim, which might be an elaborate and perfect scheme, and would yield superb results.

Innovation is not something that cannot be realized by us. Belief in yourself and the unique ability of giving concrete shape to your values and ideas are what separate boys from men. It takes a lot of courage to venture into the execution of your ideas. The initial phase is the toughest, for you may not be recognized or comprehended mentally. But survival in tough times is a test of your perseverance, endurance and determination.

For undergraduates, they can spice up their lives with variety by focusing on extra activities apart from academic curriculum. It is evident that academics are the golden key to a good career and a secure job, but the books don’t guide you to become smart in practice. No matter how long you have spent reading on skating, all the reading is useless, unless and until you put it into practice. Extra curricular activities help one to deal with people, and tell one the areas where theoretical theories can’t be applied in real life and also change the individual’s perspective and outlook to various problems. Also, time management would become easy by involving one in various activities, because only a busy man can find time. Variety is the spice of life. Variety could activate the mind to open its creative reserves. 11.变化是创造力的源泉

变化是创造力的源泉。变化为众多荒芜的心田注入了创造的汁液。变化和适应变化环境的灵活性是当今开创事业成功的必要条件。

罗马并不是一日建成的。你挖掘的越多，就越能够发现完成任务的各种各样的方法和方式。在各种现有的选项中挑选最好的方式才是符合逻辑的。创新是由你自己发现一种可以实现自己目标的独特的做事方式，它可能是事与一套精细完美的方案，并且会产生极好的效果。

创新并不是遥不可及的。相信自己，加上具有将价值观和想法赋予具体形式的独特能力会使我们脱颖而出。实施心中的想法需要很大的勇气去冒险。初期是最艰苦的，你可能会得不到真正的认可和理解。但是在不顺利的时候能否坚持下去，正是对你意志、忍耐力和决心的考验。

大学生可以通过课外活动把生活变得多姿多彩。很明显，学校所学的是通向一个好的职业和稳定工作的金钥匙，但是书本知识并不能让你在实践

中变得聪慧。不管花多长时间阅读关于滑冰的书，你若不实践，阅读是毫无用处的。课外活动是帮助人们学习与人打交道的，只了解理论，在生活中的某些领域是行不通的，实践可以改变一个人看待不同问题的视角和观点。同时，通过参与各种不同的也使人更善于管理时间，因为只有忙碌着的人才会努力挤时间。

变化是生活的调味品。变化可以激活思维，开启创造的潜能。

12.Walking on the road of success every day 每天都行走在成功路上

Stevenson was born of inferior origin, living in a basement of a remote county in Scotland with his family. As a little boy, his greatest wish was an ice-cream in summer or a pair of gloves in winter. His father became disabled in an accident later .After the unemployment of his father, the family was on the border of famine. A loaf of bread could be the supper of the whole family. His two sisters died early for the deficiency of protein, he also fully tasted the plague of life. His parents borrowed money to send Stevenson to school when he was 10 years old. Even though he only studied in school for a semester, he mastered good spelling.

For the sake of living, he worked as a porter, an operator, a receptionist and a postman. He baked bricks, sold steaks in a bakery and learnt from barbers and carpenters. Once for a little fee, he acted as a clown in costumes in a comedy. Every night, when he lodged in the small cell, thinking of the deception and insults that he suffered, he swore he would employ every means to make money in spite of the difficulties .At that time, making money was his only motive and he dreamed of having a deposit in the bank.

When he was 28 years old, he turned to be a typist in a broadcasting bureau. He worked hard, eating crusts and napping on the couch beside the typewriter usually. He also made efforts to practice his handwriting, writing advertisements and headlines of news. However, in comparison with other staffs, he was still so humble; he spoke in dialect and had no diploma. Everybody laughed at him and conversely he shrugged, spurring himself to work even harder.

When he was 41, a journal paid for good essays. The bonus of the first prize was 3,000 pounds. He

tried and his first work entitled Heroic Surrender won the third prize, earning him 1,000 pounds. From then on, good luck seemly embraced him. He published more than 20 fictions and dramas subsequently in the following decades. His works won him the reputation overseas for the subtle feelings and insightful philosophy. Some of his works, particularly in dispensable Sore, The Era of Bet and Extraordinary Booklet were translated into several versions in different languages.

Once a journalist asked him as a productive author, “Mr. Stevenson, it is said that your striking success is owing to Heroic Surrender. Assuming there was no such a try, would you still live on slim wages?” Then Stevenson smiled. “Regarding success”. He said, “Life is always a process of voyage. Someone paces quickly, while others slowly. But stretches of episodes in life constitute our success; we are walking on the road of success every day.” 12.每天都行走在成功的路上

史蒂文森出身卑贱，他们一家人常年住在苏格兰一个偏远小县的一间地下室里。他小时候最大的愿望就是有夏天可以吃到冰淇淋，冬天有双手套来取暖。后来，父亲在一次事故中致残，父亲失业以后，家里的生活更是举步维艰，常常一条面包便是一家人的晚餐。两个姐姐都因营养不良而先后夭折，他也饱尝艰辛。10岁时，家里借钱把他送到学校，虽然只上了一学期，但是他的拼写学得非常好。

为了谋生，他当过搬运工，接线员，招待员，邮递员，烧过砖，在面包店卖过牛排，曾拜理发师和木匠学艺。曾经为了赚一点小费，他还在喜剧片里装扮过小丑。每到夜晚的时候，他蜷缩在小屋里，想着自己受到的种种屈辱的欺骗，他就发誓，不管有多辛苦一定要想尽一切办法赚钱。那时候，赚钱养家是他唯一的动力，他做梦也想在银行里有自己的存款。

28岁那年，他在一家广播站当上了打字员。他很勤奋，饿了吃点干面包片，困了就睡在打字机旁的长凳上。他练习书法，学写广告和新闻摘要。但是比起同事来，他还是太卑微了。他说着方言，又没有文凭。人们都嘲笑他，他反而耸耸肩，把这当作鼓舞自己斗志的动力。

41岁那年，有家杂志举办有奖散文征文活动，一等奖3千英镑。他想碰碰运气，结果，他的一篇名为《英雄败北》的处女作获得了第三名，奖金1000英镑。从此，幸运降临了。接下来的几十年中，他接连发表了20多部小说和戏剧。他的作品以感情细腻，深刻，富有哲理而享誉海外。特别是《不能承受之痛》、《赌之年代》、《宝书》等，被翻译成几国文字。

成名后，有记者问他：“史蒂文森先生，有人把你的成功归功于那次征文。如果没有第一次的尝试，恐怕您现在仍然靠微薄的工资生活吧？”史蒂文森笑了，他说：“说到成功，生活就如同航行，虽然有的人快一些，有的人慢上些，但人生的每一个历程都是成功的基石，我们每天都走在成功的路上！”

13. How to Prepare a Resume 如何写英文简历

目前的就业均势表明，一个人一生当中至少要跳槽7次。这一现实使得我们有机会实现自己各种的梦想。但是，当面对众多对手和激烈的竞争，我们应该怎么做呢？不管你是大学毕业生，还是公司白领，以下七条重要的建议都将使你受益匪浅。 1.想象你的职业目标

当你在工作中遇到巨大的困难时，你会怎么办呢？你可以参加协会并向资深博学的专家请教你的问题，征求他们的建议。参加协会里定期的论坛和研讨会，通过经验交流和相互帮助会使你获得启发。虽然有些协会只是民间的自发组织，它也有利于扩大你的交际面，提高你的技术水平。 16. Simple Tips to be Happy

Are you happy? Do you know the fact that happiness is determined by our minds more than by our circumstances? The following are a few tips that I follow to create happiness in my life.

Tip 1:

Set effective plan to get happiness. Just like in any other realm of life, pursuing happiness requires reasonable planning.

Tip 2:

Make happiness a priority. If happiness is at the bottom of your list, then other things will interfere with your efforts to feel good.

Tip 3：

Do things from which you’ll gain pleasure and enjoyment, and don’t forget to make sure your goals are AMART (specific, measurable, accomplishable, relevant and timed).

Tip 4:

Set yourself tasks from which you’ll gain a sense of satisfaction. Because satisfaction is a supreme part of happiness, you should do the things which might not be fun, but from which you’ll gain achievement.

Tip 5:

Identify where your strengths lie and focus on the maximum utilization of your strength (including all your positive qualities and attributes). Know what your faults and weaknesses are to avoid problems.

Tip 6:

Be grateful and appreciate what you possess. There’s no doubt that gratitude and appreciation will significantly increase your chances of tasting happiness.

Tip 7:

Play and have fun. Don’t take life too seriously. Although we all have responsibilities, that is not the reason for us not to approach our lives in a playful manner.

Tip 8:

Invest time and energy into your key relationships. Happy people tend to be more supportive to other people.

Tip 9:

Weed out unhelpful thoughts, the central method for attaining a happier life is to train your mood in a constant practice that weakens negative attitudes and strengthens positive, optimistic ones – this is an essential skill.

Tip 10: Live a healthy life. Exercise regularly. Ensure you gain adequate sleep and rest. It’s difficult to be happy if you’re frequently tired, diseased and struggling to find enough energy to get through the day.

17.Adventure of Sandy 桑迪历险记

Sandy’s father was a humble, humorous writer who was beloved by his readers. In elementary school, Sandy read heaps of books about sailors and was inspired by them. In secondary alcohol, his teacher praised him as an honorable, earnest, generous and aggressive teenager. He specialized in architecture on campus.

After graduation, though his darling lover

always stuck like glue to him, he compelled himself to realize his dream of exploring the South Pacific. He invested lots of emotional energy in order to possess a decent boat.

Before departure, Sandy plotted the ship’s course on the chart. Accompanied with warm sunshine, refreshing breeze and jewel-like island on the horizon, Sandy’s boat drifted on the South Pacific without any restraint. Sandy’s boat drifted on the deck, absorbed in the glorious condition.

He hadn’t experienced any disaster such as volcano, earthquake, but maybe he would.

A U.S. weather satellite moved with efficiency in its orbit, heading towards the South Pacific, scanning the earth’s atmosphere for sign of changing weather. The weather fax indicated that for the influence of massive high- pressure system, a 40 knots per hour storm would rage across the South Pacific.

An intense lighting flashed through the sky, deafening thunder roared overhead, a blast wind with fierce rain whipped on the cabin window. When with fierce rain whipped on the cabin window. When his boat began to sway by spray, he urged himself, “Don’t worry, I’m a bold marine.” A raged surge was like a steep cliff, sheer vertical. The following wave was more powerful, like a terrible (awful) and mysterious ghost who wanted to swallow him. Then, he found that the aluminum framework of wind-powered generator had been spoiled. He peered the outside alertly, just like awaiting some potential hazard.

Suddenly, a coil of rope slid in blade of turbine from deck, and what was like a bomb exploded in his mind, He was aware that he must chop off the rope swiftly. In the toolbox, only the axe, saw, hammer and a pair of scissors were available.

Griping on the handle, he slammed the door behind, and plunged himself into water, with the saw bonded on his wrist. In order to stop bleeding, he striped off his shirt, tore a clean rag and then wrapped his injured ankle.

Spray endlessly slammed on the waterproof window, and the glasses were broken with a harsh noise. The tidy and orderly cabin altered in chaos. Water spilled over the floor, a mass of cassettes, CD-disks and notebooks had been thrown out from the drawer. His recorder, wool sweater and lovely doll had been submerged in water.

Numerous occasions, he was thrown to the cabin wall and bounced back with tremendous pain. Gradually, he was practically impatient to resist the raging sea.

In order to get help from other ships. He fastened the loose storage battery and switched on the electric pump. With violent vibration and other variables, he couldn’t get the volt of current from the digital panel.

By trial and error, he concluded that all the communicating devices were useless.

He obliged himself not to be scared and prayed for himself when thorough despair almost emerged in his mind.

Fortunately, a pilot on a royal helicopter found his boat, after surveying the situation cautiously, the pilot tried to contact him through radar system. A man voice with an England accent derived from the receiver of radio in small volume. With extreme excitement, Sandy held the microphone with shiver, exclaimed:” Lord, I appeal for your help!”

It’s a miracle that the helicopter’s crew rescued him. After undergoing the marvelous hardship, he had more determination on exploring. Recently, Sandy is accumulating funds for his next exploit-traveling across the Australian interior by bicycle (cycle). 17.桑迪历险记

桑迪的父亲是一位谦虚幽默的作家，他的读者很喜欢他。上小学时，桑迪读了许多关于水手的书，并受到了鼓舞。在中学时，他的老师夸他是一位正直、热情大方、有进取心的少年。上大学晨时，他主修建筑学专业。

毕业后，虽然他的女朋友整天与他如影随形，但他还是迫使自己实现南太平洋探险的梦想。为了拥有一条合适的船，他费尽心血。

出发前，桑迪把航线画在航海图上。伴着温暖的阳光、清新的微风和水平线上珍珠般的小岛，桑迪的航船无拘无束地漂流在南太平洋上。桑迪懒洋洋地躺在甲板上，沉浸在这美妙的时光中。

一颗美国气象卫星高效地行驶在轨道上，朝着南太平洋驶去，收集着天气变化的信息。天气传真

显示，由于巨大高压系统的影响，一场时速40海里的飓风将席卷南太平洋。

一道强烈的闪电划过天空，震耳欲聋的雷声在头顶轰鸣，一阵狂风骤雨抽打在船舱窗子上。当船开始在波浪中摇摆时，他鼓励自己：“别紧张，我是一位勇敢的水手。”一个狂怒的波浪如陡峭的山崖，几乎垂直。接下来的浪更大，就像一个可怕而又神秘的魔鬼想要吞掉他。然后，他发现风力发电机的铝架已经被毁坏。他看着外面，似乎等待着潜在危机的到来。突然，一圈绳索从甲板上滑到涡轮机的叶片上，他的脑子里犹如一个炸弹轰地炸开了。他明白他必须尽快砍断绳子。工具箱里只有一把斧子、锯子、锤子和一把剪刀可以使用。

紧紧握住把手，他砰地关上门，手腕上绑着锯子冲入水中。为了止血，他脱掉衬衫，撕下一块干净的布，包扎受伤的脚踝。

波浪无休止地打在防水窗上，伴着刺耳的声音玻璃碎了。整洁的船舱变得混乱不堪。水溅在地板上，许多磁带、CD唱片和笔记本被从抽屉中抛撒出来。他的录音机、羊毛衫和可爱的玩具被浸在水中。

无数次地，他极度痛苦地被甩向舱壁又被弹回来。渐渐地，他几乎不耐烦了，不想再去对抗这狂怒的大海。

为了得到其他船只的援助，他捆好松动的蓄电池，打开电泵开关。由于剧烈的震动和其他多变的因素，他不能从数字仪表上读出电流的电压。 经过反复试验，他认为所有的通讯装置都无法使用。

当彻底的绝望向他袭来时，他强迫自己不要害怕并为自己祈祷。

幸运的是，一架皇家飞机的飞行员发现了他的船只。经过仔细调查情况，飞行员试着通过雷达系统与他联系。一个带着英国口音的男士的声音从收音机的话筒中传出，音量很少。带着极大的欢喜，桑迪颤抖着手抓着话筒，喊道：“上帝，求你救救我吧！”

他奇迹般地被机组人员营救了。经历了这次惊人的灾难后，他有了更大的探险决心。目前，桑迪正在攒钱准备下一次壮举———骑自行车穿过澳大利亚内陆。

18.The Last Wish in a Winter Night 冬夜里的最后心愿

Kent was a manger of a cement agency. His establishment nearly had gone bankrupt because one of his inferiors betrayed him. Just now Kent had made a presentation to the board in the chamber, conceding the failure of his administration. He had temporarily stopped the provision of cement in all projects.

It was a cold winter midnight. In corridor, the thermometer suspended showed the temperature was minus 9 degrees centigrade. The tragedy blurred Kent’s mind, so he steered to a bar alone. He wanted nothing but to drink liquor tonight.

There were few people in the street. Suddenly, a figure of an old madam exposed within his eyesight. She was standing sideways nearby a platform, dressed in a plain gown, hauling a portable suitcase, and holding with a plastic bag in the other hand. The slight old lady was seemingly more than 80. She was trembling in cutting wind with red nose. Now she kept motioning Kent for a ride. Although Kent was somewhat angry about the old madam’s disturbing and he wasn’t induced at all to inquire any occurrence concerning her, he wouldn’t like to leave her in the cold night. He thought that she presumable needed help. So he braked near her.

The madam said, “Would you please take me a ride? I can offer double fare…”

Kent interrupted her, “I will charge you nothing! Come on!”

The madam pointed her luggage (baggage) and said, “Could you put them into the car?”

Kent stooped, heaved and put them in the car. They proceeded to drive. Kent halted at a petroleum station where he wanted to purchase gallons of gasoline. During the interval they waited in a queue, the madam began with her narratives,“ could you please send me to the charity house in suburb; I want to give them the luggage. I had been rendered help as a refugee there 50 years ago.” Kent was confused about the identity and behavior of the madam, so he asked, “Why do you do this at midnight?” The madam replied, “I retired on a pension. They prohibit (forbid) me from coming out during the day. In the case are the surplus jackets, jeans and pants of my nephews and nieces.”

After 2 hours’ bump, Kent went out the entry of the charity house. They continued.

“Please wait a moment, Sit!” the madam said suddenly, fixed her eyesight on an old building. “You know the first house in the uppermost floor was the first home my husband and I leased (rented) where I dialed the up-to-date videophone the first time in my life. The landlord was a good guy.” She burst into

tears, “Now they’ve all gone to the heaven.” Kent realized the madam was recalling a section (segment) of the good missing days. A penetrating feeling overwhelmed him, and he decided to cancel his plan and stay with the old madam.

As the old madam dictated, they went to a golf playground. The region, she said, was a dairy dozens of years ago. Everyday she went to the farm with sleeve covers, cushion, jar, towel and other auxiliary appliances. Her main work was to squeeze, transport and distribute milk. She also bred the cow sometimes.

Then the old madam instructed, “Please send me to the rest home in the town, sir.” Hearing this, Kent pulsed quickly. He knew the rest home was prescribed for the cancer patients who were diagnosed without any remedy.”

“Ｉwill soon die of liver cancer. I come out to say goodbye to my life. Now I will have no regrets before death . Thanks for your help!” the madam made an explanation with smile, walking into a timber room . Kent was dumb for a while. He was chewing what the madam said, happily thinking of her life without any regrets. 18.冬夜里的最后愿望

肯特是一位水泥经销部的经理。由于下属的背叛，他的公司已经濒临破产。刚才在会议室里，肯特已经向公司董事会作了报告，承认自己的失误，并且暂时停止了所有工程的水泥供应。

当时正值寒冷冬季的深夜。走廊里的温度计显示为零下9度。想着生意惨败，肯特情绪低落，独自驱车驶往一家酒吧。他打算今晚一醉方休。 大街上空无一人。突然，在车子前方出现了一个老妇人侧身站在站台旁，拖着一个便携式的行李箱，提着一个塑料袋。老人看上去已有80多岁，她穿着长袍，瘦弱的身躯，鼻子通红，站在寒风中瑟瑟发抖。此时，她不停地向肯特的车子招手。尽管肯特有些懊恼，也无心理会老人身上发生了什么 ，但不忍把她丢在这寒夜中。肯特想老人可能需要帮助。于是，他刹车停在了老人的面前。 老人说：“先生，您可不可以载我一程？我给你双倍的车费……”

肯特赶忙打断老人的话，说：“不用车费。快上车吧！”

老人又指了指地上的行李：“你可不可以帮我把它们放到车里？”

肯特忙弯腰用力提起箱子和塑料袋，放进了车里。 他们上路继续向前行驶。肯特路过一家加油站，在加油站排队等候的时候，老人打开了话匣子，“你可不可以先送我到市郊的济贫院的救济呢！”肯特对老人的身份和行为充满迷惑，说“您为什么要选择半夜送过去呢？”老人缓缓地说：“我现在退休了，白天他们不允许我出来，箱子里是我侄子和侄女们穿剩下的夹克、牛仔裤和裤子。”

两个小时的颠簸后，肯特他们走出了济贫院的大门。他继续按照老人指的路线前进。 “先生，请停一停。”老人突然说。这时，她的视线透过车窗久久地停留在了街边一幢破旧的大楼上。“您知道吗，这幢楼顶层的第一间，那是我和丈夫曾经租住的第一间房啊！房东是个好人。那里是我终生第一次使用可视电话的地方！”这时，老人久久凝视的目光中有泪光闪烁。“但是现在，他们都先后离开了我，去了天堂。”肯特这才明白，老人是在追忆昔日的美好时光。他被震撼了，决定放下一切，陪着老人。

接着，他按照老人的要求到了一个高尔夫球场旁边。老人说这里几十年前曾是一个牛奶场。她每天带着袖套、坐垫、罐子、毛巾和其他辅助用具去牛奶场。她的主要工作是挤牛奶、运送并分发牛奶，有时也去饲养奶牛。

“先生，我有些累了，您还是送我去市区的疗养院吧。”老人说。肯特心头一阵惊悸。他知道市中心疗养院是专门收留无法救治的绝症病人的地方。

“我得了肝癌，我的时间已经不多了。这次，我是偷偷地从疗养院溜出来的。因为，我很想亲自向过去的一切告别。这样，在我人生结束的时候就没有遗憾了。非常感谢你的帮助！”老人微笑着解释，走进木房子里。肯特一时无语，他想着老人的话，感到欣慰，因为老人的内心真的没有遗憾了。 19.The Autobiography of Forrest Gump 新阿甘正传 I am a born idiot. My mother was a widow because my father died shortly after my birth. But others said I resembled him. We inherited some estates which we lived by. My mother planted a lot of violets in the courtyard. I liked watching her knitting nearby the violets. At that time, my mother talked much to stimulate me, which I could not cite much, but my mother always said, “Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you are going to get.”

My mother named me Forrest. She interpreted that I was an heir of Forrest, a hero in civil war. His name had been carved on the monument and President Roosevelt had awarded him a badge. My

mother said I must have retained the gene of heroes. I didn’t quite understand her interpretation. It might link with a myth or whatsoever.

We had neighbor, a Negro immigrant from Africa. I liked to play threatened with him for anyone who laughed at my insaneness; he would deliver him a punch. My mother gave his family good treatment. Later one night, there was a riot in the street with whistle of cars again and again. They said some Negros robbed a white junior student. Then my neighbor moved away. Nobody played with me since then.

My mother thought it was good for me in school, so that I would be the same as others. But on that day, the headmaster said he would check my grammar. It seemed I did badly, for my mother tried to reconcile with him. After a term, I was transferred to another school. I would tell you, it was an odd place. Some spat the gums on the sofa; some twisted stockings around their necks. The teachers only taught the simplicity of life, for example, when to slap hands, how to suck soda to prevent it from splashing on clothes and so on. We should submit to teachers. I yawned often. But there was one exception. Once I broke a broom with a snap, the teacher made me hungry for a day.

One day a big guy met me on my way from dorm (itory). He came to drag me and call me “idiot”. I was almost provoked, but I dared not to protest. I shed tears. Then a voice came, “Run, Forrest! Run!” and I began to run. When I dashed into a cinema on Joint Street and looked back, he disappeared.

After graduation, the US military cabled to inform me to join the army. Mama took me to the site of interview which was in a stadium nearby a gulf. There might be thousands of people because some other’s toes were always kicking my heels. The jury was composed of seven people, a delegate with a big forehead labeled us from NO. 1 and divided us into several divisions to, he clarified, keeping balance. Nuisance! Then he made us to take a leap-frog test keeping with a naked body. He said he would check our spine and muscle strength. When I got home at night, I got two swollen feet. 19.新阿甘正传（1）

我生下来就是个白痴。妈妈是一个人生活，爸爸在我出生不久就死了。不过别人都说我长得像他。我们继承了几处房产，所以日子还说得过去。妈妈在院子里种了很多紫罗兰，我最喜欢看她坐在院子里织毛衣，通常妈妈这时候会说很多话来激励我，我不大记得住，不过妈妈说“生活就像一盒巧克力，你永远不知道会得到什么。”

妈妈给我起名叫福雷斯特，妈妈解释说，我家祖上福雷斯特是内战期间的英雄，纪念碑上有他的名字，罗斯福总统还给他颁发过奖章呢。妈妈说我一定也保留着英雄的基因，我不太明白，我想这大概是虚构的事情或者其他什么吧。

我们有个邻居，是个黑人，非洲移民。我喜欢跟他在一块玩。因为有人笑我是疯子的时候，他就会揍人家一顿。妈妈对他们一家很好，不过后来有一天晚上，街上乱哄哄的，汽车警笛声吵得很，他们说有黑人抢劫了白人学生，后来他们就搬走了，再没人跟我玩了。

妈妈认为把我送到学校对我有益，因为这样我或许就变得跟其他人一样了。不过开学的时候，学校的校长说要考考我语法，由于我表现不好，妈妈努力跟校长调解才被同意了，于是我勉强读了一个学期之后，就到转到另一个学校了。我告诉你，那学校真怪，同学们有把口香糖吐沙发上的，还有把长筒袜拧在脖子上玩的。老师教的也简单，什么时候拍手啦，怎么喝汽水可以不把水溅到衣服上啦，总之，就是要听话。这些我都知道，所以常常犯困。不过有一次例外，我有一次“啪”一声把扫帚折断了，为此，老师一天没给我吃吃饭。

后来有一天，我离开宿舍打算回家，有个家伙在半路拦住我，他走过来动手拖我，叫我“呆子”等等，我几乎被激怒了，但不敢反抗，就哭了。然后我听见有人说：“阿甘，跑啊！快跑！”于是，我就开始跑。当我跑到十字路口的电影院的时候，他救灾真不见了。

毕业后，美国陆军发来电报说要我去当兵。妈妈带着我去参加面试。面试的地点在一个海湾附近的露天体育场里。我估计有数千人呢，因为别人的脚尖老是踢着我的脚后跟。评审团一区有7人，有个大脑门的代表，给我们 每个人编 了号，从1开始，然后又把我们分成好几组，说要保持均衡，真麻烦！然后他们命令我们脱下衣服做蛙跳测试，检查脊柱和肌肉力量什么的。回到家的时候，我的脚已经肿了。

20.The New Autobiography of Forrest Gump (2) 新阿甘正传（2）

I couldn’t be a soldier because the test of federal corps was a good proof that I was an idiot. A few days later, a coach called Maurice came to ask me to play American football in college. He said he had seen me running. I could run as restricted to learn.

Some professors were strict such as Mr. A. who taught us a course named technology. He gave me a book might be several centimeters thick. I spent some nights reading the chapters and I found I could digest most of the formulas. However, in physics class, I was always confused with the concepts as molecule, atom and nucleus; and I could neither memorize the idioms and phrases nor make a clear distinction between adjective and adverb, in English class. I usually borrowed some handbooks of composition from the librarian. I liked some handbooks of composition from the librarian. I liked some brief paragraphs in them.

Though I got A in technology, I was kicked out from the college because I got F in English. Several months later, I was asked to come to the recruiting headquarters. I estimated there might be a great many openings in the army. That might be why they asked an idiot to join them.

I went to my travel with a small parcel, but it turned out a reverse way as what I thought on the outset. The newly erected training base was in a typical tropical region. Everything was scarce except mosquitoes. We shot with our rifles whenever we heard the bang of our leader, and also we practiced shouting slogans.

Once in a shooting practice, I noticed a profile of a tight vessel (container) made of brass. Its oval outline was cute, so I shot at it. The result was that they deducted my monthly allowance and took me to heat the furnace.

Three months later, we were paraded with a banner. Then we left there.

Several weeks later, we arrived at the Vietnam via Pacific Ocean. I saw some bandaged soldiers and wrecked utility shortly after I got off. There was scarcely an intact building. A deputy superior, who looked like a butcher with a fat chin (jaw), asked us to take a bath in a basin and then I shaved. Then each of us was given a pistol. Some bullets, a telescope and a pair of leather shoes which I liked the best. Every day the jets flied around in the air and what we had to do was to scout around to prevent the raid of enemy, or hide in tank when there was a shell coming. Soldiers often conflicted with each other: some said the black were racial inferior. It was nonsense for me. The deputy superior shouted at us every day and he once said, the declare action of the war meant this territory would be our colony sooner or later. I didn’t like his mode of speaking.

It was ridiculous that, one year later, we didn’t ever eliminate the enemy before we were notified to withdraw back to the U.S. though the recession of economy after going back to the U.S, I launched into my business. We caught fish in the Pacific Ocean. Though the little input, the inflation and the government imposed heavy tax, we got great revenue by retail. I even suspected God manipulated all the things. Thank God. 20.新阿甘正传

我没能当兵，因为联邦军队说我的文化测试说明我是一个十足的傻瓜。过了不久，一个叫什么莫里斯的教练就来问我愿不愿意进大学了去打美式足球了。他说他见过我跑步，我简直跑得跟火箭一样快。

大学可不一样，我得要学习了。有的老师很严格，就像教我们工艺学的A教授，他给了我一个几厘米厚的一本书，我花了几个晚上看了几章之后，发现我竟然能理解里面的一些方程式。不过，在物理课上，我始终分不清楚分子、原子的原子核这些概念；在英语课上，我老是记不住俚语和短语，也分不清形容词和副词什么的。我常常从图书管理员借一些小手册学习，我很喜欢其中的一些简短的段落。

由于英语课得了F ，我被大学开除了。虽然在工艺学打了A也没用。几个月后，盟军又通知我去新兵指挥部，他们大概需要很多人，所以连傻子也要吧。

开始我还把这当成一次旅行，就带着一个小包裹出发了，可事实上绝不是这样。新建的训练基地在典型的热带地区，蚊子很多，物资缺乏，我们每人发一把步枪，听到指挥员的枪声就射击，有时还练习喊口号。

有一次射击时，我看见侧面有一个黄铜制的密封容器，椭圆的外形非常好看，于是我朝它开了一枪，结果他们就扣除了我当月的津贴，并调我去烧锅炉。

就这样，三个月以后，我们举着条幅接受了检阅，然后就离开了训练基地。我们走了几个礼拜，途经太平洋，好不容易到了越南。刚下车我就看到有好几个士兵缠着绷带晃悠，很多公共设施被摧毁了，几乎没有一座好房子。有一个副官长得肥头大耳的，活像个屠夫。不过他让我们在一个水池里洗了个澡，刮了胡子。然后给我们每人发了一支手枪和一些子弹，一个望远镜，还有一双真皮皮鞋，这个我最喜欢。每天都有飞机在天上飞来飞去，我们

任务就是四处侦查以防敌人的袭击，或有炮弹来时躲在坦克里面。士兵们也经常起摩擦，有些人说黑人低人一等，不过这不关我的事。那个副官每天都对我们吼，说战争的开始意味着这里尽早成为美国的殖民地，我可不喜欢他说话的样子。

可笑的是，一年以后，敌人还没有被消灭，我们就被告知可以回国了。回到美国后，虽然经济也不景气，我想还是自己干点事吧。我和朋友们去太平洋捕鱼。虽然我们只投资了很少钱，政府税很重，而且还通货膨胀，但我们仅靠零售就赚了很多。我简直怀疑是上帝在帮我们。感谢上帝！

21. Four seasons in Countryside 乡村的四季风景 The spring in countryside is extremely charming. The canal melts and everything rouses up from sleeping. On the slope of the hill, the animals are assembling for a reunion. Flocks of bulls, lambs and rabbits are running excitedly forward and backward. On the lane to the hill, all kinds of wild flowers bloom in red, purple, and lemon. They are either like flame or like horns – how beautiful! People are astonished (startled) by the substantial change of nature overnight. Dense bushes around the belt of banks wear a new dress; the green pines cap a magnificent rug on the peak and ridge; pears begin to give off buds; the gardener in plantation is occupied in trimming (clipping) branches; farmers begin to plow and sow in the fruitful field. All these constitute a peculiar and fascinating picture of the rural scenery in April.

When the calendar turns to June, some tender flowers fade and the summer tips in. The grape cane in court begins to grow arbitrarily, climbing across the bench and the barrier enclosed by fences. They shove each other to form a natural screen. The sun roasts the earth and beams of sunlight come through the sun roasts the earth and beams of sunlight come through the leaves and hedges of the avenue, and then fall on the stone column (pillar) and the log huts besides the road. Patches of shadows make the place a magic location. Sometimes there would be storms and hails. People find no shelters to hide before being soaked. Then the storm ceases and everything thrives. Children chase each other in the court. Summer is a prosperous season.

Autumn is a harvest season. When the dawn mist is scattered, the field is paved with golden corn, cloud-like cotton, green pea, and red pepper, in this mild climate, with the booming of tractors, the peasants would be busy approximately for a fortnight.

When the barn is full of crops and bundles of hay are collected, the faces of peasants glow with smile. What a rare harvest year!

When the sun sets, the sky is dyed red. Some chickens still claw for worms in the clay, the carrier pigeons are swinging wings back to nest, the cattle stand silently in stable, and the fishes are idly bubbling in shallow stream.

In the distance, a steamer with cargoes anchors in the harbor, the surf is licking its rear with a gentle rhythm. The lorry and van like static statue accompany the steamer on the bank. The tired porters have fallen in sleep in the cab. What a harmonious picture!

Fog turning into frost forecasts the coming of winter. When the snow invades the earth, crystal flakes crash with branches and decayed stumps, everything retreats beneath the white snow.

Residents hide in the house, and furnish it with a new layout. They place the stove in the middle of the house, and stem the gaps in the window. When the smoke is curling up from the chimney, people who work hard all the year sit around the oven, enjoying bowls of liquor from their own cellar and chatting pleasantly. Everybody could feel the warmth from the inner heart.

21.乡村的四季风景

乡村的春天格外迷人！运河融化，万物复苏。山坡上动物们仿佛集会似的，成群的公牛啦，羊羔啦，兔子啦都在尽情地撒欢。山路上，各色的野花争奇斗艳，红色的，紫色的，柠檬色的，像火焰，像喇叭似的竞相绽放。人们惊奇地发现，似乎就在一夜间，河堤两岸的灌木换上了新装，翠绿的松林给山顶和山岭披了一张华丽的毯子。梨树开始抽芽了，种植园里的花匠开始忙着修剪树枝，农民开始在肥沃的田野里耕地播种。这一切构成了乡村四月独特迷人的风景。 当日历翻到6月，花儿凋谢，夏日便悄悄来临。院子里的葡萄藤开始恣意生长，它们爬上长凳，越过栅栏，你推我挤，形成了一道天然的屏风。阳光炙烤着大地，光束穿过树叶和篱笆洒落在林荫道上，映在路边的石柱和小木屋上，影影绰绰，犹如仙境。有时会突然遇到暴雨，雨夹着冰雹倾泻下来，人们还来不及避雨便被淋得浑身湿透。然后雨过天晴，万物一新，孩子们也互相追逐打闹。夏季是繁荣的季节。

秋天是丰收的季节。当太阳驱散了黎明的薄雾，田野里满是金黄的玉米，云朵般的棉花，绿的豌豆，红的辣椒。在这个温和的季节，伴着拖拉机的隆隆声，农民们大概要忙活半个月。看着谷仓里堆满了粮食，院里整整齐齐剁好了干草，农民们脸上带着笑，这真是一个难得的丰收年啊！

当夕阳西下之时，天际被染成了红色。几只小鸡还在土里刨虫子，牛儿安静地站在牛圈里，信鸽拍打着翅膀归巢了，牛在栏圈里一声不响地站着，小鱼在浅浅的小河里悠闲地吐泡泡。

远处满载的船只停靠在港口，波浪轻轻地拍打着船尾犹如在低吟浅唱。卡车和货车如静静的雕像伫立在岸边，劳累的搬运工已经在驾驶室里睡着了。这真让人觉得是一幅和谐之景。

雾变成霜预示着冬季的到来。当大雪袭来，飘舞的雪花落在树枝上，落在腐烂的树桩上，天地万物都隐藏在冰雪之下。

人们纷纷待在家里，重新布置了屋里的布局。他们将火炉放在屋子中间，堵上了窗户的缝隙。炊烟袅袅升起，辛苦了一年人人们，围坐在灶台前，大口喝着自家地窖里配制的烈酒，开心地聊天。每个人的内心都能感受到这份温暖。

22.The Advantages and Disadvantages of Internet 网络的利与弊

Internet, a token of modernized society, is becoming a portion of mankind’s life at a soaring rate, and is playing an important role in our industrialized social context. The network resources comprise the network facilities and network information. The former provides us with the ability of complicated computation and telecommunication while the latter provides us with rich categories and large amount of data for downloading or skimming.

The noticeable functions of internet make us advocate the standpoint that nobody could actually assess its impacts on human life. Internet has exhibited us kinds of cultures, which enlarges our horizon and enriches our life. Meantime activities among internet users shorten the connection of people worldwide. One could skim news, bulletins, posters and banner advertising on the internet at home. Applicants could fill in files systematically and register without presence. One could bid welfare to friends with electronic postcard through e-mail, costing no postage. Businessmen could conduct payments of imports and exports at minimum cost. Engineers could draw graphs or charts. Students could select their favorite tutors and policemen could refer to the feedback of penalties.

Whereas it has advantages, when illegal activities through websites discount their value, the internet becomes a combination of both an angel and a devil. For example, the commission of a company could call remote video councils among the personnel in different places. On the contrary, there are hostile hackers who steal business documents. In addition, gambling online might trouble victims with great debts. Cops have verified that convicts by usage of internet have been liable to be a widespread social problem which is hard to get rid of.

Therefore, internet is like a double-edged sword only provided the movement shields on behalf of the public, enforces relative policies and legislations, supervises the admission of net information, and bans the rubbish websites, can we make full use of Internet.

22.网络的利与弊

网络，作为现代化的标志之一，正以惊人的速度日渐成为人们生活的一部分，它在工业化社会中起着重要的作用。网络资源是由网络设备资源和网络信息资源两部分组成。网络设备资源使我们能够进行复杂的计算和远程通信，而网络信息资源则向我们提供大量的下载的浏览服务。

网络诸多显而易见的功能使我们不得不承认21世纪网络对人类生活的影响是难以估量的。网络给我们展示了不同的文化，拓展了我们的视野，丰富了我们的生活。同时，各种定期举办的网上活动拉近了世界各国人之间的距离。坐在家中即可浏览新闻，公告，海报以及各种各式的广告；申请人可以按步骤填写表格，轻松地进行网上注册；人们可以通过电子贺卡表达对朋友的祝福，而不必花费邮费；商人可以利用互联网进行进出口贸易的转账业务以节约成本；工程师能利用网络制图；学生可以在网上挑选自己喜爱的老师；警察可以在网上追踪罚款的支付情况等等。

尽管互联网有很多优点，当诸多网络犯罪问题使其大打折扣时，网络成了天使和魔鬼的双重化身。例如，因为有了网络，公司可以异地召开协调会，但另一方面，也有不法黑客盗取商业文件。此外，网络赌博也会使人们巨债缠身。警察也已经证实网络犯罪很有可能成为一种影响广泛但难以摆脱的社会问题。

由此可见，网络是一把双刃剑。只有政府维护公众利益，实施相关政策和法律，加强网络审查，取缔不良网站，这样网络才能充分发挥有效作用。 23.10 Trifles to Arrest Global Warming 10 件小事阻

止全球变暖

Global warming – the negative consequence of greenhouse effect – is increasingly grim, which has been illustrated by a succession of destructive crises in temperature. But how can we arrest global warming? The following are some plausible suggestions:

1. Energy-saving Lamps Instead of Common Bulbs Install the Energy –saving Lamp at home, which only needs 40% of the amount of energy to keep the same lightness as the common bulb. That is to say, 150 kilograms of carbon dioxide (CO2) could be reduced to release into the air every year. In addition, extinguish the bulbs in corridors during daytime, or else the electricity they consume would multiply in vain.

2. Clean the Air-condition and Change the Filter Stuff Regularly

By doing so we could shrink the output of CO2 by 16 ounces (namely 1 pound) every year. 3. Put the Lid on When Cooking

It is a valid manner to prevent the outgoing of vapo(u)rs. When the water in kettle boils, please turn off the power speedily.

4. Reject the Imported Food

It is estimated that the domestic food save 70% of freight compared with foreign food. Eat less manufactured food, which could indirectly withdraw the CO2 in the air. In addition, use your handkerchief and make a reduction in using napkins 5. Eat less Meat

Eat a few more raw vegetables such as carrot, cabbage, onion and so on. Nitrogen, which could be released by many domestic animals, is an important component of the mixture of greenhouse gases. 6. Make a Wholly Denial of Using Plastic Bags

Most of plastic bags couldn’t easily be dissolved by germs and bacteria in soil, so go shopping with your own handbag.

7. Reform Homes to be Warmer

Plug some rubber stuff in window rips or paste up some isolated materials on exterior of window glasses, which would avail to prevent external cold and heat.

8. Recycle Organic Rubbish

Don’t dump organic rubbish, which could produce energy through disposal.

9. Try not to Drive Private Cars With the evolution of transportation, traveling by subways or collective cars are no longer supplements of going around. They are good manners for protection the environment and saving energy. 10. Take less Aircrafts (Airplanes)

When you make a journey, please choose to take a train at least one or two times in a year, which would be helpful to reduce the CO2 in the air. Of course, reducing the weight of your luggage before going aboard is also worthy to try.

Naturally, sending the messages to others also might help to arrest the global warming. 23件小事阻止全球变暖

“全球变暖”即温室效应带来的负面影响正日益严峻，给人类带来了一系列灾难性的气候危机。那么如何阻止这一系列危机呢？如下是一些可行的建议：

1用节能灯代替普通灯泡

给家里安装节能灯，节能灯用普通白炽灯40%的能源就能达到相同的亮度。也就是说，每年能避免150千克二氧化碳被排放到大气中。另外，白天关掉走廊上的灯，否则将会成倍地浪费电能。 2定期清洁空调，或更换过滤装置 这样做能减少16盎司（即1磅）二氧化碳排放到大气中。
