Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away.2 秋天的黄叶，它们没有什么可唱，只叹息一声，飞落在那里。
And yellow leaves of autumn， which have no songs， flutter and fall there with a sign.3世界对着它的爱人，把它浩翰的面具揭下了。
它变小了，小如一首歌，小如一回永恒的接吻The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover. It becomes small as one song， as one kiss of the eternal.4是大地的泪点，使她的微笑保持着青春不谢。
It is the tears of the earth that keep her smiles in bloom.5无垠的沙漠热烈追求一叶绿草的爱，她摇摇头笑着飞开了。
The mighty desert is burning for the love of a blade of grass who shakes her head and laughs and flies away.6如果你因失去了太阳而流泪，那么你也将失去群星了。
If you shed tears when you miss the sun， you also miss the stars.7跳舞着的流水呀，在你途中的泥沙，要求你的歌声，你的流动呢。
你肯挟瘸足的泥沙而俱下么？The sands in your way beg for your song and your movement， dancing water. Will you carry the burden of their lameness？8她的热切的脸，如夜雨似的，搅扰着我的梦魂。

As a teenager，I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious1 out－side，but I wanted to be liked inside.Once I left home to hitch-hike2to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn’t easy，and there were many times I didn’t feel safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still be alive. When I returned home，I was different，not so outwardly sure of myself.I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope，who was staying with us，was wearing my clothes. A nd my family seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be missed if I weren’t there. I told my mom，and she explained that though Penelope was a lovely girl，no one could replace me.I pointed out，“Ｓhe is more patient and is neater than I have ever been.” My mom said these were wonderful qualities，but I was the only person who could fill my role. She made me realize that even with my faults—and there were many－I was a loved member of the family who couldn’t be replaced.I became a searcher，wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view of myself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist3pressure to act in ways that I didn’t like any more，and I was delighted by who I really was. I came to feel much more sure that no one can ever take my place.Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special，no matter what others say or what you may think. So forget about being replaced. You can’t be.当我还是个10几岁的少年的时候，觉得自己总是让人失望。

那一年，我们各奔东西剪不断的离愁，理不清的别绪，好想重温那美好的校园生活，回味那昨日的幸福心情。
那一年，我们毕业了，带着一丝感伤，一丝眷恋，各奔东西。
1.青春不散场因为他的存在你开怀大笑；因为他的存在，你相信人间真情永驻；因为他的存在，你坚信时间上存在一扇不加锁的门，只等待你来开启。
这就是永恒的友谊。
在艰难、困苦、烦恼的日子里，即使世界上所有的人都背叛你，他始终陪伴着你，世界也由黯淡、空虚变得明亮而充实：这就是永远的朋友。
寻找自己的路 Finding My Way热妮〃高迪奥瑟/Zan GaudiosoI started college when I was 16 years old. It was a big scary place, and I was young. I remember standing in line for registration with the hordes of other people. I felt so insecure and inadequate next to those who were my supposed peers. How would I ever measure up to these people who seemed so confident and sure of what they wanted?开始大学生涯的时候，我只有16岁。
由于年龄还小，那个地方让我感觉大而令人生畏。
我记得我和一大群人排队等待注册，这些人和我年龄相仿。
和他们呆在一起，我感觉局促不安，缺乏信心。
我怎么才能像他们一样看上去信心十足，明确知道自己需要什么呢？I didn‟t have any specific direction. I didn‟t have a clue as to what I wanted to do or be. College was just the next logical step. I felt very much out of place. To me, these people around me embodied my picture of the consummate college student. They stood there laughing with their friends, a cup of coffee in one hand, the schedule of classes in the other, discussing their options for the upcoming term. Me, I had a list of classes on a piece of paper that I had painstakingly worked out with my big brother the night before. If I didn‟t get those particular classes, I was sunk. The idea of having a backup plan never even occurred to me. What would I do? I would just die. I knew that crying wasn‟t an option—I was in college for heaven‟s sake! Maybe throwing up would be a more socially acceptable reaction. I was alone, nervous and feeling like a cartoon in a museum of priceless paintings.我没有明确的方向，也不知道自己想要干什么，上大学只是一个必须要经历的步骤。
激情晨读英语美文50篇 双语1-6
Chapter One Human Life Like a Poem 人生如诗I think that, from a biological standpoint, human life almost reads like a poem.我以为，从生物学角度看，人的一生恰如诗歌。
It has its own rhythm and beat, its internal cycles of growth and decay.人生自有其韵律和节奏，自有内在的生成与衰亡。
No one can say that a life with childhood, manhood and old age is not a beautiful arrangement; 人生有童年、少年和老年，谁也不能否认这是一种美好的安排，the day has its morning, noon and sunset, and the year has its seasons, and it is good一天要有清晨、正午和日落，一年要有四季之分，如此才好。
that it is so. There is no good or bad in life, except what is good according to its own season.人生本无好坏之分，只是各个季节有各自的好处。
And if we take this biological view of life and try to live according to the seasons, no one but a conceited fool or an impossible idealist can deny that human life can be lived like a poem.如若我们持此种生物学的观点，并循着季节去生活，除了狂妄自大的傻瓜和无可救药的理想主义者，谁能说人生不能像诗一般度过呢。

The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt3 to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.The ordinary bat that flies around at night, who is a remarkable nimble4 creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is to shuffle5 about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation6 from which it can throw itself intothe air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.A bumblebee7 if dropped into an open tumbler8 will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists9 in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself.In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations10, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.如果把一只秃鹫放在一个6～8平方英尺的无顶围栏里,这只大鸟尽管会飞,也绝对会成为这栏中之囚.原因是秃鹫从地面起飞前总要先助跑10～12英尺的距离.这是它的习惯,如果没有了足够的助跑空间,它甚至不会尝试去飞,只会终身困囿于一个无顶的小囚笼中.晚上飞来飞去的普通的蝙蝠,本是一种在空中极其敏捷的动物,但却无法在平地上起飞.如果被放在地板或平坦的地面上,它就只会无助地挪动,毫无疑问这样很痛苦.除非它到了稍高的位置,有了落差,才可以立刻闪电般地起飞.一只大黄蜂如果掉进了一个敞口平底玻璃杯里,除非有人把它拿出来,否则它就会一直呆在里边直到死去.它永远不知道可以从杯口逃出,只坚持试图从杯底的四壁寻找出路.它会在根本不存在出口的地方寻找出路,直到彻底毁了自己.其实在很多方面,很多人也像秃鹫、蝙蝠和大黄蜂一样,使尽浑身解数试图解决问题、克服挫折,却没有意识到解决之道就在正上方.Vocabulary1.buzzard n. 动秃鹫2.pen pen n. 围栏,围圈3.attempt vt. 尝试,企图4.nimble adj. 敏捷的5.shuffle v. 拖着脚走,慢吞吞地走6.elevation n. 高地,海拔7.bumblebee n. 动大黄蜂8.tumbler n. 平底玻璃杯9.persist vi. 坚持,持续10.frustration n. 失败,挫折3我的第一份工作Both my parents came from towns in Mexico. I was born in El Paso, Texas, and when I was four, my family moved to a housing project in East Los Angeles.Even though we struggled to make ends meet, my parents stressed1 to me and my four brothers and sisters how fortunate wewere to live in a great country with limitless opportunities. They imbued2 in us the concepts of family, faith and patriotism.I got my first real job when I was ten. My dad, Benjamin, injured his back working in a cardboard-box factory and was retrained as a hairstylist. He rented space in a little mall and gave his shop the fancy name of Mr. Ben's Coiffure3.The owner of the shopping center gave Dad a discount on his rent for cleaning the parking lot three nights a week, which meant getting up at 3 a.m. To pick up trash, Dad used a little machine that looked like a lawn mower. Mom and I emptied garbage cans and picked up litter4 by hand. It took two to three hours to clean the lot. I'd sleep in the car on the way home.I did this for two years, but the lessons I learned have lasted a lifetime. I acquired5 discipline and a strong work ethic6, and learned at an early age the importance of balancing life's competing interests7 — in my case8, school, homework and a job. This really helped during my senior year of high school, when I worked 40 hours a week flipping9 burgers at a fast-food joint10 while taking a full load of percolate courses.The hard work paid off11. I attended12 the U.S. Military Academy and went on to receive graduate degrees in law and business from Harvard. Later, I joined a big Los Angeles law firm and was elected to the California state assembly. In these jobs and in everything else I've done, I have never forgotten those days in the parking lot. The experience taught me that there is dignity13 in all work and that if people are working to provide for themselves and their families that is something we should honor.我的父母都来自墨西哥的小镇.我出生于得克萨斯州的埃尔帕索城.我四岁时,全家搬到了东洛杉矶的一处低收入住宅区.尽管我们当时要做到收支平衡都很困难,但父母仍对我和四个兄弟姐妹强调说,能在这样一个充满无限机遇的国家里落户,我们是多么幸运啊他们给我们灌输了家庭、信仰以及爱国主义的观念.十岁的时候,我得到了人生第一份真正的工作.我的爸爸本杰明在纸箱厂工作时背部受了伤.经过再培训,他成了一名发型师.他在一个规模不大的商业区租下了一个摊位,并给他的店取了个奇妙的名字：“本先生的发型”.商业中心的老板在租金上给爸爸打了个折扣,但条件是每周打扫三次停车场,这意味着凌晨三点就要起床干活.爸爸用一个看起来像除草机的小机器来收捡垃圾,而我和妈妈则要清空垃圾桶并用手拾捡散落的垃圾.打扫这个停车场要用两到三个小时.我总是在回家时的车里就睡着了.这份工作我干了两年,但从中学到的东西却让我受用终生.我学会了自律,建立了很强的职业道德.从小我就懂得了平衡生活中各种利益冲突的重要性——对我而言,就是上学、作业和工作.这在我高二那年真是很有用处.那时,我在一家快餐连锁店制作汉堡包,每周工作四十个小时,同时还肩负着沉重的大学预科课程的学习任务.辛勤的工作终见回报.我考入了美国军事学院,接着又获得了哈佛大学的法律和商业硕士学位.后来,我进入洛杉矶一家着名的律师事务所并被选为加州议会参议员.在做这些工作和其他所有事情的过程中,我从未忘记过在停车场辛勤工作的那些日子.那段经历使我懂得工作无贵贱, 靠自食其力来供养自己和家人就值得人们敬佩.Vocabulary1.stress stres v. 强调,着重2.imbue v. 灌输,深深影响3.coiffure n. 发式4.litter n. 废弃物,被胡乱扔掉的东西尤指废纸等杂物5.acquire vt. 获得,学到6.work ethic: 职业道德7.interest n. 利益,利害关系8.in one's case: 就某人的情况而言9.flip vt. 使翻转10.joint n. 连接,结合,本文中指连锁店11.pay off: 得到好结果,取得成功12.attend E5tend vt. 上大学等13.dignity 5dI^nItI n. 尊贵,高贵4饼干里的秘密ＪｅｒｒｙＨａｒｐｔForty-three years seems like a long time to remember the name ofa mere1acquaintance. I have forgotten the name of an old lady, whowas a customer on the paper route in my home town when I was atwelve-year-old boy. Yet it dwells2in my memory that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness that I shall never forget.On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stonesonto the slanted3roof of the old lady's house from a spot near her backyard. The object of our play was to observe how the stoneschanged to missiles4as they rolled to the roof's edge and shot outinto the yard like comets5falling from the sky. I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headedstraight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady'sback porch6. At the sound of fractured7glass, we knew we were in trouble. We turned tail8and ran faster than any of our missiles flewoff her roof.I was too scared about getting caught that first night to be concerned about9the old lady with the broken window in winter. However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn't been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune. She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper, but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence10.I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had the seven dollars that I calculated would cover the cost of her window. I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking her window and hopedthat the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it.I waited until it was dark, snuck up11to the old lady's house, and put the letter I didn't sign through the letter slot12in her door. My soul felt redeemed13and I could have the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old lady's kind eyes.The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was receiving from her. She thanked mefor the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself. I thanked her and proceeded14to eat the cookies as I continued my route.After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it outof the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was stunned15. Inside were the seven dollars and a short note that said, "I'm proud of you."记住一个仅是认识的人的名字,43年似乎是段很长的时间.我已经忘了那位老太太的名字,她是我12岁那年在家乡送报时的一位客户.不过,她曾给我上的那堂“宽恕”的课却始终让我难以忘怀.一个冬天的下午,我和一个朋友在离这个老太太家屋后不远的一个地方往她家斜斜的屋顶上扔石子玩.我们的目的是观察这些石子如何顺着屋顶的斜坡变成一颗发射物,在滚落到屋顶边缘的瞬间,像滑过天空的彗星那样射入院中.我给自己找了颗十分光滑的石子,然后扔了出去.但是,这颗石子太光滑了,出手的一刹那,它偏离了方向.它没有落在屋顶上,反而直接击中了老太太屋后门廊上的一扇小窗户.听到玻璃破碎的声音,我们知道闯祸了.我们掉头拔腿就跑,跑得比任何一颗从她屋顶发射的石子都要快.当天晚上,我太害怕被抓住,没有考虑到冬天里的破玻璃窗会给老太太带来什么样的麻烦.但是,过了几天,当我确信自己没被发现时,就开始对给她带来的倒霉事感到内疚了.每天我给她送报纸时,她依旧笑眯眯地迎接我.不过,在她面前,我已经不像过去那样自在了.我决定把送报挣的钱攒起来.三周后,我便有了7美元.我估计这大概够赔偿她的窗户了.我把钱装进一个信封,并附上一张纸条,解释说我对打破她家的窗户感到很抱歉,希望这7美元足够赔付修窗户的钱.我一直等到天黑,才悄悄走到她家门前,把这封没有署名的信从信箱口投进了她家.做完这件事情后,我感到自己的灵魂好像得到了解脱,获得了新的自由,能够重新正视老太太慈祥的目光了.第二天,当老太太微笑着从我手上接过报纸时,我也能向她回报一个热情的微笑.她对我的送报工作表示感谢,送了我一纸袋她亲手做的饼干.谢过她后,我一边吃着饼干,一边继续去给别的客户送报纸.吃了几块饼干后,我摸到了一个信封,就把它拽了出来.当我打开信封时,我不禁怔住了.信封里有7美元和一张纸条,上面写道：“我为你感到骄傲.”5善待机会The air we breathe is so freely available adj. 可以得到的 that we take it for granted. Yet without it we could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the air to sustain v. 维持,持续 them while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a magnificent adj. 壮丽的 life for themselves.Opportunity is the same way. It is everywhere. Opportunity is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet opportunityalone is not enough to create success. Opportunity must be seized andactedupon in order to have value. So many people are so anxious to "get in on the ground floorn. 有利的地位,投机的初期" of opportunity, as if the opportunity will do all the work. That's impossible.Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity, however. You must make use of that opportunity. That's not up to the opportunity. That's up to you. It doesn't matter what "floor" the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do with it.我们呼吸的空气如此易得,以至于我们视它为理所当然,但没有了空气我们却坚持不了几分钟.从很大程度上来说,每个人呼吸到的空气都是一样的,并且每个人都离不开空气.有些人靠呼吸空气来维持生命,但他们只会坐在那里自怨自艾.另外一些人吸进空气,利用空气提供的能量为自己开创壮丽的人生.机遇也是如此.它无处不在.机遇如此易得,以至于我们视它为理所应当.然而仅凭机遇却不足以创造成功.必须抓住机遇并采取行动才能实现其价值.有许多人一得到有利的机会,就急着要成功,好像有了机遇就万事大吉.这是不可能的.正如你需要空气来呼吸,你也需要机遇来获得成功.但是只吸进机遇的新鲜空气远远不够.你必须好好利用机遇.这并不取决于机遇本身,而是由你自己决定.你在什么时候得到机遇并不重要.重要的是你怎样把握机遇.6我要谨记的事情Everybody doesn't have to love me. 无须人人都爱我Not everyone has to love me or even like me. I don't necessarily like everybody I know, so why should everybody else like me I enjoy being liked and being loved, but if somebody doesn't like me, I will still be okay and still feel like I am an okay person. I cannot make somebody like me anymore than someone can get me to like them. I don't need approval all the time. If someone does not approve of1 me, I will still be okay.It is okay to make mistakes. 犯错误没什么大不了的Making mistakes is something we all do, and I am still a fine and worthwhile person when I make them. There is no reason for me to get upset when I make a mistake. I am trying, and if I make a mistake, I am going to continue trying. I can handle making a mistake. It is okay for others to make a mistake, too. I will accept my mistakes and also the mistakes that others make.Other people are okay and I am okay. 互相尊重People who do things that I don't like are not necessarilybad people. They should not necessarily be punished just because Idon't like what they do or did. There is no reason why other people should bethe way I want them to be, and there is no reason why I should be the way somebody else wants me to be. People will be whatever they want to be, and I will be whatever I want to be. I cannot control other people or change them. They are who they are; we all deserve basic respect.I don't have to control things. 我无须控制一切I will survive if things are different than what I want themto be. I can accept things the way they are, accept people the way they are, and accept myself the way I am. There is no reason to get upset if I can't change things to fit my idea of how they ought to be. There is no reason why I should have to like everything. Even if Idon't like it, I can live with it.I am responsible for my day. 我对自己的一生负责I am responsible for how I feel and what I do. Nobody can make me feel anything. If I have a rotten2 day, I am the one who allowed it to be that way. If I have a great day, I am the one who deserves credit for being positive. It is not the responsibility of other people to change so that I can feel better. I am the one who is in charge of my life.I can handle it when things go wrong. 出问题时我能应付I don't need to watch out for things to go wrong. Theyusually go just fine, and when they don't, I can handle it. I don't have to waste energy worrying. The sky won't fall; things will be okay.It is important to try. 试一试很重要I can. Even though I may be faced with difficult tasks, it is better to try than to avoid them. Avoiding a task does not give meany opportunities for success or joy, but trying does. Things worth having are worth the effort. I might not be able to do everything.But I can do something.I am capable. 我能做到.I don't need someone else to take care of my problems. I am capable.I can take care of myself. I can make decisions for myself. I can think for myself. I don't have to depend on somebody else to take care of me.I can change. 我可以改变I don't have to be a certain way because of what has happenedin the past. Every day is a new day. It's silly to think I can't help being the way I am. Of course I can. I can change.I can be flexible. 我能随机应变There is more than one way to do something. More than one person has had good ideas that will work. There is no one and only "best" way. Everybody has ideas that are worthwhile. Some may make more sense to me than others, but everyone's ideas are worthwhile,and everyone has something worthwhile to contribute.7一个那样的哥哥给予比获得更让人幸福......Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street boy was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it."Is this your car, Mister" he asked.Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." Theboy was astonished. "You mean your brother gave it to you and itdidn't cost you anything Boy, I wish...." He hesitated. Of coursePaul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he hada brother like that. But what the lad1 said made Paul quite surprised."I wish," the boy went on, "that I could be a brother like that."Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively2 he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my automobile""Oh, yes, I'd love that."After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house" Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again."Will you stop where those two steps are" the boy asked. He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled3 brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of4 squeezed up5 against him and pointed to the car. "There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm gonna6 give you one just like it... then you can see for yourself all the pretty thingsin the Christmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about."Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride.That Christmas Eve, Paul learned that it was more blessed to give....保罗收到一辆汽车,那是他哥哥送的圣诞礼物.圣诞节前夜,保罗从办公室出来时,一个街头少年绕着那辆闪闪发亮的新车,十分羡慕.“先生,这是你的车”少年问道.保罗点点头：“这是我哥哥送我的圣诞礼物.”男孩十分惊讶：“你是说这是你哥送你的,你一分钱也没花好家伙,我希望……”他停住了.保罗当然知道男孩他希望什么.他希望能有一个那样的哥哥.但那少年接下来说的话却让保罗大吃一惊.“我希望,”男孩继续说：“我能成为那样的哥哥.”保罗惊愕地看着那男孩,他冲口而出：“你要不要坐我的车去兜一兜风”“哦,当然,我愿意”车开出一小段路后,男孩转过头来,眼睛闪闪发亮地说：“先生,你是否介意把车子开到我家门前”保罗微笑.他想他知道男孩想干什么.那男孩肯定是要向邻居炫耀他能坐一部大轿车回家.但是这次保罗又猜错了.“你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前”男孩要求.男孩跑上台阶,过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了,但动作有些缓慢.他背来了他跛脚的弟弟.他让弟弟坐在最下面的台阶上,略有些挤靠着自己,然后指着那辆车.“这就是那车,巴迪,就是我刚才在楼上对你说的.他哥哥送他的圣诞礼物,他一分钱也没花.将来某一天我也会送给你一辆像这样的车,到那时候,你就能自己去看我一直努力给你描绘的那些圣诞节陈列窗里的漂亮东西了.”保罗走下车子,把跛脚的男孩抱到车子前座.兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子,坐在弟弟身旁.三个人开始了一次令人难忘的假日兜风.那个圣诞节前夜,保罗体会到“施与比获得更让人幸福……”8 ＡＬａｔｅＢｌｏｏｍｅｒThe heart that seeks to do good will always bring something worthwhile to the world, something in which all can rejoice — even if for only a moment.A cactus1 stood all alone in the desert, wondering why it was stuck in the middle of nowhere."I do nothing but stand here all day," it sighed. "What use am I I'm the ugliest plant in the desert. My spines2 are thick and prickly3, and my skin is thick and bumpy. I can't offer shade orjuicy fruit to any passing traveler. I don't see that I'm any use at all."All it did was stand in the sun day after day, growing taller and fatter. Its spines grew longer and its skin tougher and it grew here and there until it was lumpy4 and unbalanced all over. It truly was strange-looking."I wish I could do something useful," it sighed.By day hawks5 circled high overhead."What can I do with my life" the cactus called. Whether they heard or not, the hawks sailed away.At night the moon floated into the sky and cast its pale glow on the desert floor."What good can I do with my life" the cactus called. The moon only stared coldly as it mounted its course.A lizard6 crawled by, leaving a little trail in the sand with its tail."What worthy deed can I do" the cactus called."You" the lizard laughed, pausing a moment. "Worthy deed Why, you can't do anything The hawks circle overhead, tracing delicate patterns for us all to admire. The moon hangs high like a lantern at night, so we can see our ways home to our loved ones. Even I, thelowly lizard, have something to do. I decorate the sands with these beautiful brushstrokes7 as I pull my tail along. But you You do nothing but get uglier every day."And so it went on, year after year. At last the cactus grew old, and it knew its time was short."Oh," it cried out, "I've wondered so long, and I've tried so hard. Forgive me if I've failed to find something worthy to do. Ifear that now it's too late."But just then the cactus felt a strange motion and unfolding, and it knew a flow of joy that erased all despair. At its very tip, like a sudden crown, a glorious flower suddenly opened in bloom.Never had the desert known such a blossom. Its fragrance8 perfumed the air far and wide and brought happiness to all passing by. The butterflies paused to admire its beauty, and that night even the moon smiled when it rose to find such a treasure.In the desert, a voice was sounding:"You have waited long, and the heart that seeks to do goodwill always bring something worthwhile to the world, something in which all can rejoice — even if for only a moment."一株仙人掌孤独地站在沙漠里,困惑为什么它被困在蛮荒之地.“我整天站在这里无所事事,”它叹息道.“我有什么用呢我是沙漠中最丑陋的植物.我的刺又粗又多,我的皮又厚又糙.我不能为任何过路的旅行者提供荫凉或者多汁的果实.我看不出自己到底有什么用.”仙人掌所做的只是日复一日地站在太阳底下,长得更高更胖.它的刺长得越来越长,而它的表皮则更加坚韧,它向四处疯长,直至变得粗笨结实、倒向一边.它确实长得很奇怪.“我希望我能够做点有用的事,”它叹息道.白天,有几只鹰在它头顶的高空盘旋.“我能做些什么呢”仙人掌大声说道.那几只鹰也不知道听见没有,但都飞走了.晚上,月亮浮现在天空中,将其苍白的月光投射在沙漠上.“我能为我的生活做点什么有益的事呢”仙人掌大声喊道.月亮只冷冷地看了仙人掌一眼,就踏上了行程.一只蜥蜴从旁边爬过,它的尾巴在沙地上留下一道淡淡的痕迹.“我能做些什么有价值的事呢”仙人掌大声喊道.“就你”蜥蜴驻足片刻,笑道.“有价值的事嗨,你什么也做不了鹰在上空盘旋,描绘出精巧的图案供我们大家仰慕.月亮高高地挂在天上,就像夜间的一盏灯,所以我们才能看清回家的路,与我们所爱的人团聚.即便是我——地位这么低下的蜥蜴, 也有事可做.我拖着尾巴走路时留下了这些美丽的线条,装点了沙地.而你呢你除了每天变得更丑之外什么也没做.”日子就这样年复一年地过下去.最后,仙人掌变老了,它知道自己的时间不多了.“哦,”它大声呼喊,“我已经困惑了很久,而且我一直如此努力.如果我没有找到值得去做的事,那就原谅我吧.恐怕现在已经太迟了.”但是就在此时,仙人掌感觉到一阵奇怪的激动和舒展,它意识到一股消除了所有沮丧的喜悦.在它的顶端,一朵灿烂的鲜花霎时绽放,就像一顶突然出现的王冠.沙漠里还从不知道有这样的一朵花.它芬芳的香气向四处飘散,并且给所有路过者带来了快乐.蝴蝶们停下来夸赞它的美丽,而就在那天晚上,月亮升起,发现了这一珍宝时,也绽放出了笑容.在沙漠里回响着一个声音：“你已经等了很久,试图做好事的心总会给世界带来一些有价值的东西、一些让所有人都欣喜的东西——哪怕只存在一瞬间.”Vocabulary1. cactus 5kAktEs n. 植仙人掌2. spine spaIn n. 植剌3. prickly 5prIklI adj. 多刺的4. lumpy 5lQmpI adj. 粗笨的5. hawk hC:k n. 鸟鹰6. lizard 5lIzEd n. 动蜥蜴7. brushstroke5brQFstrEuk n. 一笔8. fragrance 5freI^rEns n. 芬芳9成长不息Sir Edmund Hillary is famous for being the first person to climb Mt.

经典英语美文(一)生活是一场游戏Image life as a game in which you are playing somefive balls in the air.You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you’re keeping allthese balls in the air.You understand that work is a rubber ball. If youdrop it, it will bounce back.But the other four ballsare made of glass. If you drop one of these,it will beirrevocably scuffed, marked, damaged or even broken into pieces.They will never be the same. You must learn to strive for balance in your life. How?Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others. It is because we are differentthat each of us is special.Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know what is best foryou.Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Hold on to them as you would to life, for without them, it’s meaningless.Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment youstop trying.Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us toeach together.Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’simpossible to find.The quickest way to receivelove is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;and the best way to keeplove is to giveit wings.Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.Don’t let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future.By living your life oneday at a time, you live all the days of your life.Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where youare going.Life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed slowly each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why we call it - the present.想像生活就是一场游戏，在这个游戏中，你向空中抛出五个球。

英语美文30篇英语美文30 篇01-YouthYouth 原文Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, aquality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder,the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s 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, so long are you young. When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.名家译文青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙热的恋情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

这时，轻风拂面，凉雨漫洒，叫人忧伤……Returning from a visit to his hometown, he walked slowly alorig the streetina chilly drizzling rain,a travelling bag in his left hand, and in his right handa half-filled glass water bottle with a bunchof green tender willow twigs stuck in it. A light wind touching his face called for painfulmemories of the past...当时，爸爸妈妈深翻土地去了，据说土地挖到五尺深，就能打下万斤粮。
一尺深就是2，000斤啊!为了这“一本万利”的大事业，他们经常是十多天才回一趟家。
.这样，照料幼小的他的活务，就落在了14岁小姐姐嫩弱的肩上……Those were the days when Father and Mother went deep-ploughing in the fields. They were toldthat when the earth was ploughed five feet deep, the grain yield per mu would reach tenthousand jin. Simply digging one foot down would amount to two thousand jin of grain! Busywith such a "highly profitable" significant job, they could come back home only once in morethan ten days. The task of taking care of him thus fell upon the limp shoul-ders of his 14-year-old sister.他肚子像着了火，热辣辣地难受，在炕上打滚哭闹：“我饿，我睡不着呀!”His stomach was aching as if catching fire; he rolled back and forth on the kang crying out loud, "I am so hungry. I can't sleep!"躺在他身边的姐姐连忙坐起来，伸手将他托到自己腿上，小声地唱着：His sister who lay beside him sat up at once. Resting him on her legs, shesang to him soffly:小弟弟，好宝宝，小弟弟，快睡觉。

1夏天的飞鸟，飞到我的窗前唱歌，又飞去了。
Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away.2 秋天的黄叶，它们没有什么可唱，只叹息一声，飞落在那里。
And yellow leaves of autumn， which have no songs， flutter and fall there with a sign.3世界对着它的爱人，把它浩翰的面具揭下了。
它变小了，小如一首歌，小如一回永恒的接吻The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover. It becomes small as one song， as one kiss of the eternal.4是大地的泪点，使她的微笑保持着青春不谢。
It is the tears of the earth that keep her smiles in bloom.5无垠的沙漠热烈追求一叶绿草的爱，她摇摇头笑着飞开了。
The mighty desert is burning for the love of a blade of grass who shakes her head and laughs and flies away.6如果你因失去了太阳而流泪，那么你也将失去群星了。
If you shed tears when you miss the sun， you also miss the stars.7跳舞着的流水呀，在你途中的泥沙，要求你的歌声，你的流动呢。
你肯挟瘸足的泥沙而俱下么？The sands in your way beg for your song and your movement， dancing water. Will you carry the burden of their lameness？8她的热切的脸，如夜雨似的，搅扰着我的梦魂。

英语美文欣赏51让我们微笑吧The thing that goes the farthest toward making life worthwhile, that costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.那最能赋予生命价值、代价最廉而回报最多的东西，不过一个令人心畅的微笑而已。
The smile that bubbles from the heart that loves its fellow men, will drive away the clouds of gloom and coax the Sun again.由衷地热爱同胞的微笑，会驱走心头阴郁的乌云，心底收获一轮夕阳。
It's full of worth and goodness, too, with manly kindness blent; It's worth a million dollars, and it doesn’t cost a cent.它充满价值和美好，混合着坚毅的仁爱之心；它价值连城却不花一文。
There is no room for sadness when we see a cheery smile; It always has the same good look; it's never out of style; It nerves us on to try again when failure makes us blue;当我们看到喜悦的微笑，忧伤就会一扫而光；它始终面容姣好，永不落伍；失败令我们沮丧之时，它鼓励我们再次尝试；The dimples of encouragement are good for me and you.It pays the highest interest — for it is merely lent;鼓励的笑靥于你我大有裨益。

英语美文欣赏The Most Important Body Part身体最重要的部位My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body. Through the years I would guess at what I thought was the correct answer.从前我母亲经常问我，身体最重要的部位是什么。
许多年来，我一直以为自己所想的是正确答案。
When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, "My ears, Mommy."当我很小的时候，我认为对人类而言，声音很重要，因此回答：“妈咪，是耳朵。
”She said, "No. Many people are deaf. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon."她说：“不对，有许多人是聋人。
但是你继续想，不久我会再问你。
”Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first attempt, I had contemplated the correct answer. So this time I told her, "Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our eyes."当她再度问我时，已经是好几年后了。
自从第一次回答之后，我就一直仔细的思考正确答案。
所以这次我对她说：“妈咪，视觉对每个人都很重要，所以应该是我们的眼睛。

英语美文欣赏50Run Through the Rain 雨中奔跑She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence. It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the Earth, it has no time to flow down the spout.她和妈妈刚在沃尔玛结束购物。
这个天真的小女孩应该6岁大了，头发是美丽的棕色，脸上有雀斑。
外面下着倾盆大雨。
雨水溢满了檐槽，来不及排走，就迫不及待地涌涨上地面。
We all stood there under the awning and just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We all waited, some patiently, others irritated, because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always mesmerized by rainfall. I get lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child come pouring in as a welcome reprieve from the worries of my day.我们都站在沃尔玛门口的遮篷下。
大家都在等待，有人很耐心，有人很烦躁，因为老天在给他们本已忙碌的一天添乱。
雨天总引起我的遐思。
我出神地听着、看着老天冲刷洗涤这世界的污垢和尘埃，孩时无忧无虑地在雨中奔跑玩水的记忆汹涌而至，暂时缓解了我一天的焦虑。
Her voice was so sweet as it broke the hypnotic trance we were all caught in, "Mom, let's run through the rain." she said.小女孩甜美的声音打破了这令人昏昏欲睡的气氛，“妈妈，我们在雨里跑吧。
”她说。
"What?" Mom asked.“什么？”母亲问。
"Let's run through the rain!" She repeated.“我们在雨里跑吧，”她重复。
"No, honey. We'll wait until it slows down a bit." Mom replied.“不，亲爱的，我们等雨小一点再走。
”母亲回答说。
This young child waited about another minute and repeated: "Mom, let's run through the rain."过了一会小女孩又说：“妈妈，我们跑出去吧。
”"We'll get soaked if we do." Mom said. “这样的话我们会湿透的。
”母亲说。
"No, we won't, Mom. That's not what you said this morning," the young girl said as she tugged at her Mom's arm."“不会的，妈妈。
你今天早上不是这样说的。
”小女孩一边说一边拉着母亲的手。
"This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?"“今天早上？我什么时候说过我们淋雨不会湿啊？”"Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!"“你不记得了吗？你和爸爸谈他的癌症时，你不是说‘如果上帝让我们闯过这一关，那我们就没有什么过不去。
’”The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I swear you couldn't hear anything but the rain. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say.人群一片寂静。
我发誓，除了雨声，你什么都听不到。
我们都静静地站着。
接下来的几分钟没有一个人走动。
母亲停了一下，想着应该说些什么。
Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's life. Time when innocent trust can be nurtured so that it will bloom into faith. "Honey, you are absolutely right. Let's run through the rain. If get wet, well maybe we just needed washing." Mom said. Then off they ran.有人也许会对此一笑了之，或者责备这孩子的不懂事，有人甚至不把她的话放在心上。
但这却是一个小孩子一生中需要被肯定的时候。
若受到鼓舞，此时孩子单纯的信任就会发展成为坚定的信念。
“亲爱的，你说得对，我们跑过去吧。
如果淋湿了，那也许是因为我们的确需要冲洗一下了。
”母亲说。
然后她们就冲出去了。
We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they darted past the cars and. They held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked.But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.Circumstances or people can take away your material possessions, they can take away your money, and they can take away your health. But no one can ever take away your precious memories. So, don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories every day!我们站在那里，笑着看她们飞快地跑过停着的汽车。
她们把购物袋高举过头想挡挡雨，但还是湿透了。
好几个人像孩子般尖叫着，大笑着，也跟着冲了出去，奔向自己的车子。
当然，我也这样做了，跑了出去，淋湿了。
我也需要接受洗礼。
环境或其他人可以夺去你的物质财富，抢走你的金钱，带走你的健康，但没有人可以带走你珍贵的回忆。
因此，记得要抓紧时间，抓住机会每天都给自己留下一些回忆吧！To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven. I hope you still take the time to run through the rain.世间万物皆有自己的季节，做任何事情也有一个恰当的时机。
希望你有机会在雨中狂奔一回。
贫富的真意One day a rich father took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, "how was the trip?"一天，一位富有的父亲带着他的小儿子去乡下旅行，打算让他见识一下穷人的生活。
他们在一户非常贫穷人家的农场里住了一天一夜。
旅行回来之后，父亲问儿子：“你觉得这次旅行怎样？”"Very good, Dad!"“棒极了，爸爸！”"Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked."你看到穷人的生活了吗？”父亲问道。
"Yeah!" "And what did you learn?"“是的！”“那你从中学到了什么呢？”The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden; they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden; they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard; they have a whole horizon."儿子回答道：“我看到我们家只有一只狗，而他们家有四只。
