He was young at that time- indeed, he is young still, although he is ten years older than he was then. On his return, he went to visit one of the little towns in the island of Zealand. The whole town knew who thestranger was; and one of the richest men in the place gave a party in his honor, and all who were of any consequence, or who possessed some property, were invited. It was quite an event, and all the town knew of it, so that it was not necessary to announce it by beat of drum.Apprentice-boys, children of the poor, and even the poor people themselves, stood before the house, watching the lighted windows; and the watchman might easily fancy he was giving a party also, there were so many people in the streets.There was quite an air of festivity about it, and the house was full of it; for Mr. Alfred, the sculptor, was there. He talked and told anecdotes, and every one listened to him with pleasure, not unmingled with awe; but none felt so much respect for him as did the elderly widow of a naval officer.She seemed, so far as Mr. Alfred was concerned, to be like a piece of fresh blotting-paper that absorbed all he said and asked for more. She was very appreciative, and incredibly ignorant- a kind of female Gaspar Hauser. "I should like to see Rome," she said; "it must be a lovely city, or so many foreigners would not be constantly arriving there. Now, do give me a description of Rome. How does the city look when you enter in at the gate?""I cannot very well describe it," said the sculptor; "but you enter on a large open space, in the centre of which stands an obelisk, which is a thousand years old.""An organist!" exclaimed the lady, who had never heard the word ’obelisk.’ Several of the guests could scarcely forbear laughing, and the sculptor would have had some difficulty in keeping his countenance, but the smile on his lips faded away; for he caught sight of a pair of dark-blue eyes close by the side of the inquisitive lady. They belonged to her daughter; and surelyno one who had such a daughter could be silly. The mother was like a fountain of questions; and the daughter, who listened but never spoke, might have passed for the beautiful maid of the fountain. How charming she was! She was a study for the sculptor to contemplate, but not to converse with; for she did not speak, or, at least, very seldom."Has the pope a great family?" inquired the lady. The young man answered considerately, as if the question had been a different one, "No; he does not come from a great family.""That is not what I asked," persisted the widow; "I mean, has he a wife and children?""The pope is not allowed to marry," replied the gentleman."I don’t like that," was the lady’s remark. She certainly might have asked more sensible questions; but if she had not been allowed to say just what she liked, would her daughter have been there, leaning so gracefully on her shoulder, and looking straight before her, with a smile that was almost mournful on her face?Mr. Alfred again spoke of Italy, and of the glorious colors in Italian scenery; the purple hills, the deep blue of the Mediterranean, the azure of southern skies, whose brightness and glory could only be surpassed in the north by the deep-blue eyes of a maiden; and he said this with a peculiar intonation; but she who should have understood his meaning looked quite unconscious of it, which also was charming."Beautiful Italy!" sighed some of the guests."Oh, to travel there!" exclaimed others."Charming! Charming!" echoed from every voice."I may perhaps win a hundred thousand dollars in the lottery," said the naval officer’s widow; "and if I do, we willtravel- I and my daughter; and you, Mr. Alfred, must be our guide. We can all three travel together, with one or two more of our good friends." And she nodded in such a friendly way at the company, that each imagined himself to be the favored person who was to accompany them to Italy. "Yes, we must go," she continued; "but not to those parts where there are robbers. We will keep to Rome. In the public roads one is always safe."The daughter sighed very gently; and how much there may be in a sigh, or attributed to it! The young man attributed a great deal of meaning to this sigh. Those deep-blue eyes, which had been lit up this evening in honor of him, must conceal treasures, treasures of heart and mind, richer than all the glories of Rome; and so when he left the party that night, he had lost it completely to the young lad y. The house of the naval officer’s widow was the one most constantly visited by Mr. Alfred, the sculptor. It was soon understood that his visits were not intended for that lady, though they were the persons who kept up the conversation. He came for the sake of the daughter. They called her Kaela. Her name was really Karen Malena, and these two names had been contracted into the one name Kaela. She was really beautiful; but some said she was rather dull, and slept late of a morning."She has been accustomed to that," her mother said. "She is a beauty, and they are always easily tired. She does sleep rather late; but that makes her eyes so clear." What power seemed to lie in the depths of those dark eyes!The young man felt the truth of the proverb, "Still waters run deep:" and his heart had sunk into their depths. He often talked of his adventures, and the mamma was as simple and eager in her questions as on the first evening they met. It was a pleasure to hear Alfred describe anything. He showed them colored platesof Naples, and spoke of excursions to Mount Vesuvius, and the eruptions of fire from it. The naval officer’s widow had never heard of them before. "Good heavens!" she exclaimed. "So that is a burning mountain; but is it not very dangerous to the people who live near it?""Whole cities have been destroyed," he replied; "for instance, Herculaneum and Pompeii.""Oh, the poor people! And you saw all that with your own eyes?""No; I did not see any of the eruptions which are represented in those pictures; but I will show you a sketch of my own, which represents an eruption I once saw."He placed a pencil sketch on the table; and mamma, who had been over-powered with the appearance of the colored plates, threw a glance at the pale drawing and cried in astonishment, "What, did you see it throw up white fire?"For a moment, Alfred’s respect for Kaela’s mamma underwent a sudden shock, and lessened considerably; but, dazzled by the light which surrounded Kaela, he soon found it quite natural that the old lady should have no eye for color. After all, it was of very little consequence; for Kaela’s mamma had the best of all possessions; namely, Kaela herself.Alfred and Kaela were betrothed, which was a very natural result; and the betrothal was announced in the newspaper of the little town. Mama purchased thirty copies of the paper, that she might cut out the paragraph and send it to friends and acquaintances. The betrothed pair were very happy, and the mother was happy too. She said it seemed like connecting herself with Thorwalsden."You are a true successor of Thorwalsden," she said to Alfred;and it seemed to him as if, in this instance, mamma had said a clever thing. Kaela was silent; but her eyes shone, her lips smiled, every movement was graceful,- in fact, she was beautiful; that cannot be repeated too often. Alfred decided to take a bust of Kaela as well as of her mother. They sat to him accordingly, and saw how he moulded and formed the soft clay with his fingers."I suppose it is only on our account that you perform this common-place work yourself, instead of leaving it to your servant to do all that sticking together.""It is really necessary that I should mould the clay myself," he replied."Ah, yes, you are always so polite," said mamma, with a smile; and Kaela silently pressed his hand, all soiled as it was with the clay.Then he unfolded to them both the beauties of Nature, in all her works; he pointed out to them how, in the scale of creation, inanimate matter was inferior to animate nature; the plant above the mineral, the animal above the plant, and man above them all. He strove to show them how the beauty of the mind could be displayed in the outward form, and that it was the sculptor’s task to seize upon that beauty of expression, and produce it in his works. Kaela stood silent, but nodded in approbation of what he said, while mamma-in-law made the following confession:-"It is difficult to follow you; but I go hobbling along after you with my thoughts, though what you say makes my head whirl round and round. Still I contrive to lay hold on some of it."Kaela’s beauty had a firm hold on Alfred; it filled his soul, and held a mastery over him. Beauty beamed from Kaela’s every feature, glittered in her eyes, lurked in the corners of her mouth, and pervaded every movement of her agile fingers.Alfred, the sculptor, saw this. He spoke only to her, thought only of her, and the two became one; and so it may be said she spoke much, for he was always talking to her; and he and she were one. Such was the betrothal, and then came the wedding, with bride’s-maids and wedding presents, all duly mentioned in the wedding speech. Mamma-in-law had set up Thorwalsden’s bust at the end of the table, attired in a dressing-gown; it was her fancy that he should be a guest. Songs were sung, and cheers given; for it was a gay wedding, and they were a handsome pair. "Pygmalion loved his Galatea," said one of the songs."Ah, that is some of your mythologies," said mamma-in-law. Next day the youthful pair started for Copenhagen, where they were to live; mamma-in-law accompanied them, to attend to the "coarse work," as she always called the domestic arrangements. Kaela looked like a doll in a doll’s house, for everything was bright and new, and so fine. There they sat, all three; and as for Alfred, a proverb may describe his position- he looked like a swan amongst the geese. The magic of form had enchanted him; he had looked at the casket without caring to inquire what it contained, and that omission often brings the greatest unhappiness into married life. The casket may be injured, the gilding may fall off, and then the purchaser regrets his bargain.In a large party it is very disagreeable to find a button giving way, with no studs at hand to fall back upon; but it is worse still in a large company to be conscious that your wife and mother-in-law are talking nonsense, and that you cannot depend upon yourself to produce a little ready wit to carry off the stupidity of the whole affair.The young married pair often sat together hand in hand; he would talk, but she could only now and then let fall a word in thesame melodious voice, the same bell-like tones. It was a mental relief when Sophy, one of her friends, came to pay them a visit. Sophy was not, pretty. She was, however, quite free from any physical deformity, although Kaela used to say she was a little crooked; but no eye, save an intimate acquaintance, would have noticed it. She was a very sensible girl, yet it never occurred to her that she might be a dangerous person in such a house. Her appearance created a new atmosphere in the doll’s house, and air was really required, they all owned that. They felt the want of a change of air, and consequently the young couple and their mother travelled to Italy."Thank heaven we are at home again within our own four walls," said mamma-in-law and daughter both, on their return after a year’s absence."There is no real pleasure in travelling," said mamma; "to tell the truth, it’s very wearisome; I beg pardon for saying so. I was soon very tired of it, although I had my children with me; and, besides, it’s very expensive work travelling, very expensive. And all those galleries one is expected to see, and the quantity of things you are obliged to run after!It must be done, for very shame; you are sure to be asked when you come back if you have seen everything, and will most likely be told that you’ve omitted to see what was best worth seeing of all. I got tired at last of those endless Madonnas; I began to think I was turning into a Madonna myself.""And then the living, mamma," said Kaela."Yes, indeed," she replied, "no such a thing as a respectable meat soup- their cookery is miserable stuff." The journey had also tired Kaela; but she was always fatigued, that was the worst of it. So they sent for Sophy, and she was taken into the house toreside with them, and her presence there was a great advantage. Mamma-in-law acknowledged that Sophy was not only a clever housewife, but well-informed and accomplished, though that could hardly be expected in a person of her limited means. She was also a generous-hearted, faithful girl; she showed that thoroughly while Kaela lay sick, fading away. When the casket is everything, the casket should be strong, or else all is over.And all was over with the casket, for Kaela died. "She was beautiful," said her mother; "she was quite different from the beauties they call ’antiques,’ for they are so damaged. A beauty ought to be perfect, and Kaela was a perfect beauty."Alfred wept, and mamma wept, and they both wore mourning. The black dress suited mamma very well, and she wore mourning the longest. She had also to experience another grief in seeing Alfred marry again, marry Sophy, who was nothing at all to look at. "He’s gone to the very extreme," said mamma-in-law; "he has gone from the most beautiful to the ugliest, and he has forgotten his first wife. Men have no constancy. My husband was a very different man,- but then he died before me.""’Pygmalion loved his Galatea,’ was in the song they sung at my first wedding," said Alfred; "I once fell in love with a beautiful statue, which awoke to life in my arms; but the kindred soul, which is a gift from heaven, the angel who can feel and sympathize with and elevate us, I have not found and won till now. You came, Sophy, not in the glory of outward beauty, though you are even fairer than is necessary. The chief thing still remains. You came to teach the sculptor that his work is but dust and clay only, an outward form made of a material that decays, and that what we should seek to obtain is the ethereal essence of mind and spirit. Poor Kaela! our life was but as a meeting bythe way-side; in yonder world, where we shall know each other from a union of mind, we shall be but mere acquaintances.""That was not a loving speech," said Sophy, "nor spoken like a Christian. In a future state, where there is neither marrying nor giving in marriage, but where, as you say, souls are attracted to each other by sympathy; there everything beautiful develops itself, and is raised to a higher state of existence: her soul will acquire such completeness that it may harmonize with yours, even more than mine, and you will then once more utter your first rapturous exclamation of your love, ’Beautiful, most beautiful!’"THE END。

英语美文欣赏79Making the tacks做鞋钉The hardworking blacksmith Jones used to work all day in his shop and so hard working was he that at times he would make the sparks fly from his hammer.The son of Mr. Smith, a rich neighbor, used to come to see the blacksmith everyday and for hours and hours he would enjoy himself watching how the tradesman worked."Young man, why don't you try your hand to learn to make shoe tacks, even if it is only to pass the time?" said the blacksmith. "Who knows, one day, it may be of use to you."The lazy boy began to see what he could do. But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods. He had to leave home and was forced to take up residence in another country. It so happened that in this village there were numerous shoemakers who were spending a lot of money to buy tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers' shoes.Our young Mr. Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that once upon a time he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers. He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in his workshop. The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer. And after a while, Mr. Smith found that he was soon making the finest tacks in the village."How funny it seems," he used to say, "even making tacks can bring a fortune. My trade is more useful to me than were all my former riches."琼斯是个非常勤劳的铁匠，常常一整天都在店里工作。
AGOODMANISHARDTOFIND译文
好人难寻[美]弗兰纳里·奥康纳屠珍译老奶奶不愿意去佛罗里达州，而想到东田纳西州去探望一下亲友，因此想方设法叫贝雷改变主意。
贝雷是她的独养儿子，老奶奶如今跟着他过日子。
这当儿，贝雷正坐在紧贴桌子旁边的那把椅子上，聚精会神地看报纸上橙色版面的体育消息。
“贝雷，你瞧,”她说，“看看这条消息吧!"她站在那里，一只手叉在瘦小的胯骨上，另一只手冲着贝雷的秃脑瓜子擦拉擦拉地摇晃手里的报纸.“那个自称不合时宜的人,从联邦监狱里逃出来了，正向佛罗里达州窜逃呐。
瞧这里说他对人们都干了些什么鬼名堂。
有这样一个逃犯在州里窜来窜去，我可绝不带孩子还朝那个方向去凑热闹。
要是那样做，良心上说不过去哟！”贝雷依旧津津有味地看报，头连抬都没抬一下。
于是,老奶奶转身冲着孩子妈；孩子妈穿一条长裤子，脸膛宽得象棵圆白菜，露出一副天真无邪的表情，头上裹着一块绿头巾,两角扎得就跟兔子的一对耳朵一样。
她抱着婴儿坐在沙发上，从罐里一勺一勺地舀杏儿喂他。
老奶奶说:“孩子们已经去过佛罗里达州,该换个新鲜地方带他们去玩玩，让她们四处见识见识，开阔开阔眼界嘛、他们可从来没去过东田纳西州。
”孩子妈好象没听见她的话，戴眼镜的八岁胖儿子约翰·韦斯利却插嘴说：“您要是不愿意去佛罗里达，干吗不呆在家里呢？”他跟妹妹琼·斯塔正坐在地上看滑稽画报。
“就是让她在家里当一天女皇，她也不愿意呆，”琼·斯塔说。

第二天清晨,老奶奶头一个上了汽车,准备出发。
她带上自己那个硕大的黑旅行袋,把它放在角落里，它看起来活象一头河马的脑袋；下面还藏着一只篮子，里面放着她的老猫咪，她可舍不得把猫孤零零地留在家里呆三天，它会十分想念她的，况且她担心小宝贝会碰开煤气炉的开关，发生意外，窒息而死.说真的，她的儿子贝雷可不愿意带一只老猫走进汽车游客旅馆里活现眼。
世界上最痛苦的人作文中间段
世界上最痛苦的人作文中间段英文版The Most Painful Person in the WorldIn the deep recesses of human existence, there is a person who stands out as the most painful among us. This individual is not someone who has suffered a single tragic event, but one who has endured a constant stream of heartaches and sorrows throughout their life. Their pain is not the result of a single failed relationship or a single lost battle, but the cumulative weight of a lifetime of setbacks and disappointments.This person's days are filled with memories of past hurts, regrets that cannot be undone, and losses that cannot be replaced. They wake up every morning with a sense of emptiness and despair, feeling as if they are trapped in a never-ending cycle of misery. The simple joys of life have become foreign concepts to them, and even the smallest of pleasures feel like a distant memory.Their heart is a battlefield, where every emotion seems to clash and collide, leaving them feeling torn and shattered. They yearn for the days of innocence and happiness, but those memories are now overshadowed by the constant weight of their sorrows. They strive to find a reason to hope, but the hopelessness seems to pervade every corner of their existence.This person's nights are filled with dreams of what could have been, and they wake up feeling even more alone and lost. They try to find solace in the arms of others, but even the closest relationships feel hollow and meaningless. They long for a release from their pain, but it seems as if there is no escape from their torment.This is the most painful person in the world, a soul that seems to have been cursed with a lifetime of suffering. Their pain is not something that can be easily understood or explained, it is a deep and abiding ache that seems to consume their every waking moment. They exist in a state of constanttorment, and their existence is a reminder of the darker sides of human existence.中文版世界上最痛苦的人在人类存在的深处，有一个人显得比其他人更加痛苦。

Happiness was "having the cookie." If you had the cookie, things were good. If you didn't have the cookie, life wasn't worth a damn. Unfortunately, the cookie kept changing. Some of the time it was money, sometimes power, sometimes sex. At other times, it was the new car, the biggest contract, the most prestigious address. A year and a half after his diagnosis of prostate cancer he sits shaking his head ruefully. "It's like I stopped learning how to live after I was a kid. When I give my son a cookie, he is happy. If I take the cookie away or it breaks, he is unhappy. But he is two and a half and I am forty-three. It's taken me this long to understand that the cookie will never make me happy for long. The minute you have the cookie it starts to crumble or you start to worry about it crumbling or about someone trying to take it away from you. You know, you have to give up a lot of things to take care of the cookie, to keep it from crumbling and be sure that no one takes it away from you. You may not even get a chance to eat it because you are so busy just trying not to lose it. Having the cookie is not what life is about."My patient laughs and says cancer has changed him. For the first time he is happy. No matter if his business is doing well or not, no matter if he wins or loses at golf. "Two years ago, cancerasked me, 'Okay, what's important? What is really important?' Well, life is important Life. Life any way you can have it, life with the cookie, life without the cookie. Happiness does not have anything to do with the cookie; it has to do with being alive. Before, who made the time?" He pauses thoughtfully. "Damn, I guess life is the cookie我有一位病人，他是一个成功的商人，告诉我，在他患癌症之前，凡事如果没有确定下来他就忧心忡忡。

Frane Selak was born in Croatia in 1929. Selak is well-known as the man who cheated death more than half a dozen times. His first near-death experience was when he was in his early thirties. He was traveling by train when the train derailed. His car was plunged into an icy river. Frane was rescued from the dangerous scene, but 17 other passengers didn’t survive. The very next year, Frane was on board an airplane to visit his sick mother when the door blew off mid-flight. He was sucked out of the plane and fell to the earth. He landed safely in a haystack. Unfortunately, the plane crashed, and 19 people died. Then, in 1966, Frane was riding a bus which skidded off the road and crashed into a river. Frane swam to safety, but 4 people drowned.

Isabel Pervin was listening for two sounds—for the sound of wheels on the drive outside and for the noise of her husband’s footsteps in the hall. Her dearest and oldest friend, a man who seemed almost indispensable to her living, would drive up in the rainy dusk of the closing November day. The trap had gone to fetch him from the station. And her husband, who had been blinded in Flanders, and who had a disfiguring mark on his brow, would be coming in from the outhouses.丈夫已经在家呆了一年了。

双语阅读TheStrenuousLife勤奋的生活
The Strenuous LifeGentlemen,1.In speaking to you, men of the greatest city of theWest, menof the State which gave to the country Lincoln and Grant, men who preeminently and distinctly embody all that is most American in the American character, I wish to preach not the doctrine of ignoble ease but the doctrine of the strenuous life; the life oftoil and effort;of labor and strife ; to preach that highest form of success which comes not to the man who desires mere easy peace but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship, of from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph.2.The timid man, the lazy man, the man who distrusts his country, the overcivilized man, who has lost the great fighting, masterfulvirtues , the ignorant manand the man of dull mind, whose soul is incapable of feeling the mightylift that thrills "stem men with empires in their brains" —all these, of course, shrink from seeing the nation undertake its new duties; shrink from seeing us build a navy and army adequate to our needs; shrink from seeing us do our share of the world's work by bringing order out ofchaosin the great,fair tropic islands from which thevalor of oursoldiers and sailors has driven the Spanish flag. These are the men who fear the strenuous life, who fear theonly national life which is really worth leading. They believe in that cloistered life which saps thehardy virtues in a nation, as it saps themin theindividual; or else they arewedded to that basespirit of gain and greed which recognizes in commercialism the be-all and end-all of national life, instead of realizing that, though an indispensable element, it is after all but one of the many elements that go to make up true national greatness. No country can long endure if its foundations are not laid deep in the material prosperity which comes from hard unsparing effort in the fields of industrial activity;but neither was any nation ever yet truly great if it relied upon material prosperity alone. All honor must be paid to the architects of our material prosperity; to the great captains of industry who have built our factories and our railroads; to the strong men who toil for wealth with brain orhand; for great is the debtof the nation to these and their kind. But our debt isyet greater to the menwhose highest type is to be found in a statesmanlike Lincoln, a soldier like Grant. They showed by their lives that they recognized the law of work, the law of strife; theytoiled to wina competence for themselves and those dependent upon them; but they recognized that there were yet other and even loftier duties—duties to the nation and dutiesto the race.3.I preach to you, then, my countrymen, that ourcountry calls not for the life of ease, but for the life of strenuous endeavor. The twentiethcentury looms before us big with the fate of manynations. If we stand idly by, if we seek merely swollen slothful ease, and ignoble peace, if we shrink from the hard contests where men must win at hazard of their lives and at the risk of all they hold dear, then the bolder and stronger peoples will pass us by and will win for themselves the domination of the world. Let us therefore boldly face the life of strife, resolute to do our duty well and manfully; resolute to uphold righteousness by deed and by word; resolute to be both honest and brave, to serve highideals, yet to use practicalmethods. Above all, let us shrink from no strife, moral or physical,within or without the nation,provided weare certain that thestrife isjustified ; for it is onlythrough strife, through hard and dangerous endeavor,that we shall ultimately win the goal of true national greatness.勤奋的生活先生们：1、在向你们一一西部最大城市的公民,为国家培育了林肯和格兰特的国家的公民,最能表达美国精神的公民一讲话时,我想谈的不是贪图安逸的人生哲学,而是要向你们宣讲勤奋生活论一一即过勤奋苦干的生活,过忙碌奋斗的生活.我想说,成功的最高境界不属于满足安逸的人们,而是属于那些在艰难险阻面前从不畏惧终获辉煌的人们.2、凡怯懦、懒惰、不相信祖国的人,谨小慎微丧失坚强斗志的“文明过头〞的人、混沌无知的人、思想僵化的人、不能像刚毅有抱负的人那样被豉舞振奋的人一一总之,当看到国家有新的责任要承担,当看到祖国正在建立足以满足需要的海陆军,当看到英勇的士兵和水手在美丽的热带岛屿上驱逐西班牙势力,承担起应尽的世界责任,恢复当地秩序一一当看到这一切时,所有这些人都退缩了. 就是这样一些人, 他们害怕过勤奋的生活,害怕过真正值得过的国民的生活.他们相信与世隔绝的生活,任由这种生活在侵蚀他们个人吃苦耐劳品德的同时,也侵蚀了一个民族的吃苦耐劳精神.假设不然,他们就沉迷于惟利是图、贪得无厌的卑污泥潭而不能自拔,认为国家应一切以商业利益为根本.但他们却不明白,商业利益固然是不可或缺的因素,然而毕竟只是造就真正伟大国家的许多因素之一.诚然,如果一个国家不是深深扎根于其工业活动领域的艰苦努力所带来的繁荣的物质根底之中,那么这个国家也不可能长久地生存下去.但是,如果仅仅依赖于物质财富,任何国家也永远不会成为真正伟大的国家.我们应该向那些创造了物质财富的人们致敬,向那些创建了工厂和铁路的实业巨头们致敬,向那些用勤劳和智慧换取财富的强者们致敬；国家很感谢他们以及和他们一样的人.但是,我们更感谢另外一些人,他们的最正确楷模就是林肯那样的政治家和格兰特那样的军人.他们的生活轨迹表明,他们清楚工作和斗争的法那么,他们含辛茹苦,使自己和依赖他们生活的人们过上了富足的生活,而且他们懂得还有更崇高的责任一对国家和民族的责任.3、所以同胞们,我要讲的是,我们的国家要求我们不能好逸恶劳,而只能过刻苦勤奋的生活.迫在眉睫的20世纪将决定许多国家的命运.假设我们只是一味地袖手旁观、贪图享乐、苟且偷安,假设我们面临剧烈的竞争考验时不是冒着牺牲个人生命和失去亲人的危险去赢得胜利,而是落荒而逃的话,那么,更勇敢坚强的民族就会超越我们,得以统领世界.因此,让我们勇敢地面对充满斗争考验的生活,下定决心卓越而果断地履行我们的责任；下定决心无论在语言还是行动上都坚持正义；下定决心老实勇敢地以切实可行的方法为崇高的理想效劳.最重要的是,无论是精神还是物质的斗争,无论是国内还是国外的斗争,只要我们确定正义在手, 我们就绝不能逃避退缩.由于只有通过斗争,通过艰苦和充满危险的努力,我们才能最终到达目标一成为真正伟大的国家.。

双语阅读:世上最不幸的男人
He’s rich, single and most importantly, he’s not cheap, but despite all these qualities, 47-year-old Larry Greenfield can’t seem to find a suitable life partner. In the last 12 years he has spent around $65,000 on matchmaking services, has been on 250 blind dates, but he has yet to find a wife.
他富有而单身,更重要的是他不小气。
可是尽管有着非常好的条件,47岁的拉里·格林菲尔德似乎找不到一个合适的人生伴侣。
在过去的12年里,他已经在婚介服务上花费了大约65000美元,历经250次相亲却仍然没有找到一个妻子。
Larry sounds like a really unlucky guy, but according to the New York Post and Yahoo S hine, he’s apparently just really picky. "His problem is he’s a six and he wanted tens," Maureen Tara Nelson, one of his former matchmakers told Shine. He would pick out his dates according to their photos and profiles, but at the end he’d always say there was no chemistry.
拉里听上去像是个相当倒霉的人,不过据纽约邮报和雅虎Shine频道的报道,
他显然就是非常挑剔。
“他的问题在于好高骛远,”他的前一任媒人莫林·泰拉·纳尔逊这样告诉雅虎Shine的记者。
他会根据照片和材料选择约会对象,但是到头来他总会说没有感觉。
The Post also paints out the retired Wall Street trader as very detail-oriented: he wants a woman who is slim, Jewish, funny, and a non-alpha (isn’t interested in a career). That’s apparently a very rare breed in New York. ”He thinks because he’s wealthy he could get a
beautiful women, but what he doesn’t realize is that beautiful women in New York are also already successful,”Nelson sa id.
邮报记者也形容说这位退休的华尔街交易员是个非常注重细节的人:他希望找一个苗条、有趣的犹太人,而且要没什么才学的(对事业没有兴趣)。
这种人选在纽约显然非常罕见。
“他觉得自己非常富有,因此应该得到一个漂亮的女人,但他没有意识到纽约的漂亮女人也已经是事业有成了。
”纳尔逊说道。
In his first interview with the New York Post, Larry sounded like a man who was honestly looking for love.
在拉里第一次接受纽约邮报采访时,他听上去像是一个诚心寻求真爱的男子。

“I’d trade it all in for a white picket fence, two kids, a dog. And you can have it all!”the ex-securities trader said. “I’m not a bad guy. I haven’t been to prison. It’s just a very frustrating thing.”
“我宁愿拿一切来换一个热炕头,一双孩子和一条狗。
你可以拿走一切!”这
个前证券交易员说道,“我不是一个坏人,我没有蹲过牢狱。
但事情就是这么无奈。
”
He admits he focused on his job in his early years, thinking he’d first get the career and then the girl. But it just didn’t work out the way he planned it. But, after some of the six matchmakers he used in the
last few years started spilling the beans, Larry came out as a guy looking for perfection.
他承认早些年专注于自己的工作,认为应该先有事业再找妻子。
但事情并不按他的计划进行。
不过,过去这几年他曾聘用过六个媒人,当中终于有人说漏了嘴,拉里看来是一个寻求完美的人。
“He would always come back with some minor, minor thing that the person wasn’t perfect,”Maureen T ara Nelson remembers, which made he drop him as a client after a year.
“他总是回来反馈一些非常小非常小的问题来说明那个人不够完美,”莫林·泰拉·纳尔逊回忆说,这也导致一年后他放弃了这位顾客。
But Larry has one more chance –Janis Spindel of Serious Matchmaking. “Men are picky. It’s in their DNA. They want the four B’s —beauty, brains, body and balance,”Spindel said, adding Greenfield is no different. “Larry wants a normal girl who’s in her thirties who wants to be his wife, who will be a sweet and loving wife and mom. I told him I will not take money from him until I have
her.”Who knows, maybe the 251st time is a charm.
不过拉里还有一个机会,著名婚介网站Janis Spindel of Serious Matchmaking 可能会帮他找到意中人。
“男人都很挑剔。
这是他们的基因决定的,他们希望能符合四个B:beauty (美貌),brains(头脑),body(身材)和balance(平衡),”该网站创始人斯宾德尔这样说道,她还补充说格林菲尔德跟别的男人没有什么不同。
“拉里希望能找到一个普通的女人,大约30岁左右,愿意成为他的妻子,并且能够做到一个温柔可人的妻子和母亲。
我向他保证在他找到妻子前是不会收费的。
”谁知道呢?或许第251次约会奇迹就会发生?。
