Different from the Start
一开始就与众不同
Five-year-old Albert Einstein stared at his hand as if it held magic. Cupped in his palm was a small,round instrument with a glass cover and a jiggling needle. Albert's father called it a compass. Albert called it a mystery. No matter how he moved the compass, the needle always pointed to the north. Quietly Hermann Einstein watched his son. Albert was a chubby little boy with pale, round cheeks and thick, black hair that was usually messy. His bright brown eyes were wide with discovery.
五岁的阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦盯着他的手,仿佛手上掌控着魔法。他的掌心托着一个小小的、圆形的仪器,仪器带有一个玻璃罩和一根会摆动的针。阿尔伯特的父亲称它为指南针,阿尔伯特称它是一个谜。不管他如何移动罗盘,指针总是指向北方。赫尔曼·爱因斯坦静静地注视着他的儿子。阿尔伯特是一个胖乎乎的小男孩,白白的脸颊圆乎乎肉嘟嘟的,黑色的头发常常乱成一团。看到这一发现,他明亮的棕色眼睛睁得大大的。
Something was in the room with him, Albert realized--something he couldn't see or feel, but that acted on the compass just the same. Spellbound, Albert listened to his father explain magnetism, the strange force that made the compass needle point north. But nothing his father said made the invisible power seem less mysterious or wonderful. To many children the compass would have been just another toy. To Albert the compass was a miracle he would never forget.
阿尔伯特意识到,房间里有什么东西在他的身边--他无法看到或感觉到的某种东西,同时也对指南针产生着作用。阿尔伯特入迷地听父亲解释磁力,一股使罗盘的指针指向北方的奇特的力量。但是,不管父亲说什么,也丝毫没有减少这股无形力量的神秘感和奇妙感。对许多孩子来说,指南针本来只是一个玩具,对阿尔伯特来说,指南针却是一个他永远不会忘记的奇迹。
But then Albert had always been different from other children. Born March 14,1879,in Ulm, Germany, Albert hadn't been looked like other babies. As she cradled her new son in her arms, Pauline Einstein thought the back of his head looked strange. Other babies didn't have such large, pointed skulls. Was something wrong with Albert? Although the doctor told Pauline everything was fine, several weeks passed before the shape of Albert's head began to look right to her.
然而,阿尔伯特总是不同于其他孩子。1879年3月14日他出生在德国的乌尔姆,出生时,他看上去就不像其他婴儿。当母亲波林·爱因斯坦抚慰着怀抱里的这个新生儿时,她觉得他的后脑勺看起来怪怪的,其他婴儿没有那么突出的大头骨。阿尔伯特有什么问题吗?虽然医生告诉波林一切安好,但几个星期之后她才觉得阿尔伯特的头形正常。
When Albert was one, his family moved to Munich,where his sister, Maja, was born a year later. Looking down at the tiny sleeping bundle, Albert was puzzled. Where were the baby's wheels? The disappointed two year old wanted to know. Albert had expected a baby sister to be something like a toy, and most of his toys had wheels.
阿尔伯特一岁时,全家搬到了慕尼黑,一年后妹妹玛雅出生了。看着襁褓中熟睡的小婴儿,阿尔伯特感到疑惑不解。婴儿的轮子在哪里呢?这个失望的两岁的孩子很想知道。阿尔伯特以为小妹妹应该是像玩具一样的东西,并且他的大部分玩具都是有轮子的。
Albert's parents were amused by his confusion. But any response at all would have delighted them. At an age when many children have lots to say, Albert seemed strangely backward. Hermann and Pauline wondered why he was so late in talking. Was their son developing normally? As Albert grew older, he continued to have trouble putting his thoughts into words Even when he was nine years old, he spoke slowly, if he decided to say anything at all. Pauline and Hermann didn't know what to think.
阿尔伯特的父母被他充满疑惑的样子逗笑了,但孩子的可反应都令他们感到快乐。在这个年龄,许多孩子都能讲不少话了,阿尔伯特在语言方面却似乎异常落后。赫尔曼和波林不知道为什么他说话这么晚。他们的儿子生长发育正常吗?阿尔伯特更大一些的时候,仍然难以用文字表述自己的思想。甚至在他九岁时,如果他决定说些什么,速度还是很慢。波林和赫尔曼不知道该如何看待。
But Albert was a good listener and a good thinker. Sometimes when he went hiking with his parents and Maja, he thought about his father's compass and what it had revealed to him. The clear, open meadows were filled with more than the wind or the scent of flowers. They were also filled with magnetism. The very thought of it quickened Albert's pulse.
但是,阿尔伯特非常善于倾听和思考。有时当他和父母还有妹妹玛雅一起去远足时,他会想到父亲的指南针,思考它向他揭示的秘密。清新开阔的草地不仅充满着风声或花的香味,也充满着磁力,一想到这点阿尔伯特就脉搏加速了。

The Old Man and the Sea老人与海
老人与海
The sun rose thinly from the sea and the old man could see the other boats, low on the water and well in toward the shore, spread out across the current. Then the sun was brighter and the glare came on the water and then, as it rose clear, the flat sea sent it back at his eyes so that it hurt sharply and he rowed without looking into it. He looked down into the water and watched the lines that went straight down into the dark of the water. He kept them straighter than anyone did, so that at each level in the darkness of the stream there would be a bait waiting exactly where he wished it to be for any fish that swam there. Others let them drift with the current and sometimes they were at sixty fathoms when the fishermen thought they were at a hundred.
淡淡的太阳从海上升起,老人看见其他船只低低地挨着水面,朝海岸漂去,向海浪垂直的方向分散开。接着,太阳更明亮了,刺眼的强光照在水面上。当太阳从地平线上完全升起,平坦的海面把阳光反射到他眼睛里,使他的眼睛剧烈地刺痛,所以他划着船,不朝太阳看。他俯视水中,注视着那几根一直垂到漆黑的深水里的钓索。他把钓索垂得比任何人更直,这样,在黑暗的湾流深处的几个不同的深度,都会有一个鱼饵刚好在他所指望的地方等待着游动的鱼来觅食。别的渔夫让钓索顺水漂流,有时钓索在六十英寻的深处,他们却自以为在一百英寻的深处呢。
But, he thought, I keep them with precision. Only I have no luck any more. But who knows? Maybe today. Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.
但是,他想,我总是把它们放在精确的地方。只是我没有运气,可谁知道呢?也许今天就有好运。每天都是新的一天。走运当然更好,但我宁愿做得精确。那么运气来的时候,你就准备好了。
The sun was two hours higher now and it did not hurt his eyes so much to look into the east. There were only three boats in sight now and they showed very low and far inshore.
两个小时过去了,太阳升得更高了,朝东望去,眼睛没有刺痛得那么厉害。现在只能看见三艘船,它们显得很低,靠近海岸。
All my life the early sun has hurt my eyes, he thought. Yet they are still good. In the evening I can look straight into it without getting the blackness. It has more force in the evening too. But in the morning it is painful.
这一辈子,初升的太阳总是刺痛我的眼睛,他心想。然而,眼睛仍然是好好的。傍晚时分,我能直视它,不会有眼前发黑的感觉。阳光在傍晚要更强烈些,不过在早上它叫人感到痛苦。
Just then he saw a man-of-war bird with his long black wings circling in the sky ahead of him. He made a quick drop, slanting down on his back-swept wings, and then circled again.
就在这时,他看见一只军舰鸟,有着黑色的长翅膀,在他前方的天空中盘旋。它斜着后掠的双翅迅速俯冲下来,然后又盘旋起来。
"He's got something," the old man said aloud. "He's not just looking."
"他逮到东西了,"老人大声说,"他不只是看看。"
He rowed slowly and steadily toward where the bird was circling. He did not hurry and he kept his lines straight up and down. But he crowded the current a little so that he was still fishing correctly though faster than he would have fished if he was not trying to use the bird.
他缓慢而坚定地划向鸟儿盘旋的地方。他并不匆忙,使钓索保持着上下垂直的位置。不过他朝海流靠近了一点,这样他依然在用正确的方式 捕鱼 ,尽管他的速度要比不打算利用鸟儿来引路时来得快。
The bird went higher in the air and circled again, his wings motionless. Then he dove suddenly and the old man saw flying fish spurt out of the water and sail desperately over the surface.
鸟儿在空中飞得更高了,再次盘旋起来,翅膀纹丝不动。然后它猛然俯冲下来,老人看见飞鱼跃出水面,拼命地在海面上掠过。
"Dolphin," the old man said aloud. "Big dolphin."
"海豚,"老人大声说道' "大海豚。"
He shipped his oars and brought a small line from under the bow. It had a wire leader and a medium-sized hook and he baited it with one of the sardines. He let it go over the side and then made it fast to a ring bolt in the stern. Then he baited another line and left it coiled in the shade of the bow. He went back to rowing and to watching the long-winged black bird who was working, now, low over the water.
他取下桨,从船头下面拿出一根细钓丝。钓丝上系着铁丝导线和一只中号钓钩,他把一条沙丁鱼挂在上面,顺着船舷放下水,然后将丝紧紧地系在船尾一只带环螺栓上。接着他在另一根线上安上鱼饵,把它盘绕着搁置在船头的阴影里。他又划起船,看着长翅黑鸟,它此刻正在水面上低飞。
As he watched the bird dipped again slanting his wings for the dive and then swinging them wildly and ineffectually as he followed the flying fish. The old man could see the slight bulge in the water that the big dolphin raised as they followed the escaping fish. The dolphin were cutting through the water below the flight of the fish and would be in the water, driving at speed, when the fish dropped. It is a big school of dolphin, he thought. They are widespread and the flying fish have little chance. The bird has no chance. The flying fish are too big for him and they go too fast.
他正看着,鸟儿又斜起翅膀准备俯冲,它向下冲来,然后又猛烈地扇动着双翼,追踪飞鱼,但是没有成效。老人看见大海豚在追赶飞鱼时海面微微隆起的水浪。海豚在飞掠的鱼下面破水而行,等鱼一落下,海豚就会飞速潜人水中。这群海豚真大呀!他想。它们分散开去,飞鱼很少有机会逃脱。军舰鸟也没有机会,飞鱼对它来说太大了,并且它们速度太快。
He watched the flying fish burst out again and again and the ineffectual movements of the bird. That school has gotten away from me, he thought. They are moving out too fast and too far. But perhaps I will pick up a stray and perhaps my big fish is around them. My big fish must be somewhere.
他看着飞鱼一次次地跃出水面,鸟儿的行为也一无所获。那群海豚要远离我了,他想着。它们动作太快,游得太远。但是,也许我会逮住一条掉队的,也许我的大鱼就在它们周围。我的大鱼一定在某个地方。

无限风光在险峰
Risk is endemic in human affairs. To say to someone "I love you" or to say in church "I believe"can never be risk-free undertakings. They are to make investments in things that are not fullyunder one's control. The other person may not love you back. The God in whom you stakeyour trust may turn out not to exist. The French philosopher Pascal famously attempted ametaphysical hedge with regards to the existence of God. He argued that if believers are rightabout God's existence, then they have gained everything. But if they are wrong about it, theyhave lost nothing. It's an attempt to eliminate risk from believing. But, like the risk avoidancestrategies of investment banks, where you invest your heart and your soul can never be riskfree. All commitment, whether it be financial, emotional or religious, is subject to thepossibility of failure. That's life. And indeed it may well be that the attempt to eliminate riskfrom life can, in extreme forms, become an attempt to eliminate life itself.
冒险几乎是人群中的常见病。对别人说“我爱你”或者在教堂里说“我相信”其实一直都是有风险的。他们所作的承诺并不完全由自己掌控。对方也许不爱你。你相信的上帝有可能根本就不存在。法国哲学家Pascal曾就上帝的存在与否尝试过一个形而上的推敲。如果信众对于上帝存在的认识是正确的,那么他们就得到了一切,如果不对,那他们也毫无损失。这是对消弭信仰风险的尝试。但是,就像投行规避风险的策略一样,这个你投入一切的地方绝不是个全无风险的地方。所有承诺,不管是资金方面的,感情方面或是宗教方面的,都有失败的可能性。这就是生活。在某些极端情况下,想从生活中消除风险就等于消除生活本身。

我们在旅途中
Wherever you are, and whoever you may be, there is one thing in which you and I are just alike at this monment, and in all the moments of our existence. We are not at rest, we are on a journey. Our life is a movement, a tendency, a steady, ceaseless progress towards an unseen goal.
不论你处在什么地方,也不论你是什么人,不管是在此时此刻,还是在我们生命中的任何一个瞬间,有一件事对你我来说是恰巧相同的,我们不是在休息,我们是在一次旅途中,我们的生活是一种运动,一种趋势,是向一个看不见的目标稳定而不停地进步。
We are gaining something, or losing something, or losing something, everyday. Even when our position and our character seem to remain precisely the same, they are changing. For the mereadvance of time is a change. It is not the same thing to have a bare field in January and in July. The season makes the difference. The limitations that are childlike in the child are childish in the man.
每一天,我们都会赢得某些东西,或者会失去某些东西。 甚至当我们的位置和我们的性格看起来跟以前完全相似时,它们事实上仍然在变化着。因为仅仅是时间的前进就是一种变化。对于一块荒地来说,在1月和7月是不同的,季节会制造差异。能力上的缺陷对于孩子来说是一种可爱的品质,但对于大人来说就是一种幼稚的表现。
Everything that we do is a step in one direction or another. Even the failure to do something is in itself a deed. it sets us forward or backward. the action of the negative pole of a magnetic needle is just as real as the action of the positive pole. To decline is to accept--the other alternative.
我们做的每一件事都是朝着一个或另一个方向前进一步。 甚至 没有做任何事情 这件事本身也是一种行为,它让我们前进或后退,一根刺针阴极的作用和阳极的作用都是一样真实的,拒绝也是一种接受--这些都是二中择一的选择。

你今天比昨天更接近你的港口了吗?是的--你必须接近某一个港口或者其他港口。自从你第一次被抛人生活之海,你的船连一分钟都没有静止过,海是如此之深,你也不可能找到一个抛锚的地方,于是你不可能停下来,知道你到达自己的港口。

Of Studies
Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. Their chief use for delight, is in privateness and retiring; for ornament, is in discourse; and for ability, is in the judgment, and disposition of business. For expert men can execute, and perhaps judge of particulars, one by one; but the general counsels, and the plots and marshalling of affairs, come best, from those that are learned. To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament, is affectation; to make judgment wholly by their rules, is the humor of a scholar. They perfect nature, and are perfected by experience: for natural abilities are like natural plants, that need proyning, by study; and studies themselves, do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience. Crafty men contemn studies, simple men admire them, and wise men use them; for they teach not their own use; but that is a wisdom without them, and above them, won by observation. Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously; and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention. Some books also may be read by deputy, and extracts made of them bothers; but that would be only in the less important arguments, and the meaner sort of books, else distilled books are like common distilled waters, flashy things.
Reading make a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man. And therefore, if a man write little, he had need have a great memory; if he confer little, he had need have a present wit: and if he read little, he had need have much cunning, to seem to know, that he doth not. Histories make men wise; poets witty; the mathematics subtitle; natural philosophy deep; moral grave; logic and rhetoric able to contend.
读书足以怡情,足以博彩,足以长才。其怡情也,最见于独处幽居之时;其傅彩也,最见于高谈阔论之中;其长才也,最见于处世判事之际。练达之士虽能分别处理细事或一一判别枝节,然纵观统筹、全局策划,则舍好学深思者莫属。读书费时过多易惰,文采藻饰太盛则矫,全凭条文断事乃学究故态。读书补天然之不足, 经验 又补读书之不足,盖天生才干犹如自然花草,读书然后知如何修剪移接;而书中所示,如不以经验范之,则又大而无当。有一技之长者鄙读书,无知者羡读书,唯明智之士用读书,然书并不以用处告人,用书之智不在书中,而在书外,全凭观察得之。读书时不可存心诘难作者,不可尽信书上所言,亦不可只为寻章摘句,而应推敲细思。书有可浅尝者,有可吞食者,少数则须咀嚼消化。换言之,有只须读其部分者,有只须大体涉猎者,少数则须全读,读时须全神贯注,孜孜不倦。书亦可请人代读,取其所作摘要,但只限题材较次或价值不高者,否则书经提炼犹如水经蒸馏、淡而无味矣。
读书使人充实,讨论使人机智,笔记使人准确。因此不常作笔记者须记忆特强,不常讨论者须天生聪颖,不常读书者须欺世有术,始能无知而显有知。读史使人明智,读诗使人灵秀,数学使人周密,科学使人深刻,伦理学使人庄重,逻辑修辞之学使人善辩.
If the past has taught us anything,it is that every cause brings effect -- every actionhas a consequence.This thought,in my opinion,is the moral foundation of the universe; it applies equally in this e ething simple can completely reshape your life.It's just like the Butterfly Effect and you never knopetition the human heart.
Ah, hoence, interest in attainment, and regard for posterity.
We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. We do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live: courageously or in cowardice, honorably or dishonorably, with purpose or in drift. We decide what is important and what is trivial in life. We decide that what makes us significant is either what we do or what we refuse to do. But no matter how indifferent the universe may be to our choices and decisions, these choices and decisions are ours to make. We decide. We choose. And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed. In the end, forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.
抱负
一个缺乏抱负的世界将会怎样,这不难想象。或许,这将是一个更为友善的世界:没有渴求,没有磨擦,没有失望。人们将有时间进行反思。他们所从事的工作将不是为了他们自身,而是为了整个集体。竞争永远不会介入;冲突将被消除。人们的紧张关系将成为过往云烟。创造的重压将得以终结。艺术将不再惹人费神,其功能将纯粹为了庆典。人的寿命将会更长,因为由激烈拼争引起的心脏病和中风所导致的死亡将越来越少。焦虑将会消失。时光流逝,抱负却早已远离人心。
啊,长此以往人生将变得多么乏味无聊!
有一种盛行的观点认为,成功是一种神话,因此抱负亦属虚幻。这是不是说实际上并不丰在成功?成就本身就是一场空?与诸多运动和事件的力量相比,男男女女的努力显得微不足?显然,并非所有的成功都值得景仰,也并非所有的抱负都值得追求。对值得和不值得的选择,一个人自然而然很快就能学会。但即使是最为愤世嫉俗的人暗地里也承认,成功确实存在,成就的意义举足轻重,而把世上男男女女的所作所为说成是徒劳无功才是真正的无稽之谈。认为成功不存在的观点很可能造成混乱。这种观点的本意是一笔勾销所有提高能力的动机,求取业绩的兴趣和对子孙后代的关注。
我们无法选择出生,无法选择父母,无法选择出生的历史时期与国家,或是成长的周遭环境。我们大多数人都无法选择死亡,无法选择死亡的时间或条件。但是在这些无法选择之中,我们的确可以选择自己的生活方式:是勇敢无畏还是胆小怯懦,是光明磊落还是厚颜无耻,是目标坚定还是随波逐流。我们决定生活中哪些至关重要,哪些微不足道。我们决定,用以显示我们自身重要性的,不是我们做了什么,就是我们拒绝做些什么。但是不论世界对我们所做的选择和决定有多么漠不关心,这些选择和决定终究是我们自己做出的。我们决定,我们选择。而当我们决定和选择时,我们的生活便得以形成。最终构筑我们命运的就是抱负之所在。
初二的语文课本上,有一篇汪曾祺先生的文章名曰《吆喝》,文笔朴实却有趣,生动的再现了老北京胡同里的声音特色。那颇有趣味的对于吆喝声的描写,让我思绪纷飞,恨不得一头扎进课本,进去另一个多彩的世界,把每一种小吃都尝尝。于是,有时也会把自己的记忆翻出来,一条条捋顺,仔细找找脑海里的那些关于吆喝声与小吃的画面,然而,文笔有限,只能表现出其中之一二,不免心生黯然。
记忆里的第一个声音就是夏天街上的冰棍叫卖声。在院子里玩的满头大汗的时侯,听到那一声冰棍声,就觉得异常兴奋,管大人要来一毛钱,跑去消费。小贩一般是外村人,骑一辆大自行车,后边铁架上有一个白色的箱子,被厚棉被捂了个严严实实。我紧紧攥着那小小的一角钱,期待着棉被下面的清凉世界。箱子打开的那一刻,有股凉皮扑出,只一瞬间,小贩利落的拿一支冰棍出来然后盖好箱子。这个过程必须是短暂的,因为,耽误久了暑气能疯狂的把冰块变作冰水。他们一般骑着车子走村串巷,吆喝一声又一声,“冰棍儿---冰棍儿---”,这种声音是比较缓慢的,冰字后面有两到三秒的停顿后,棍字才会携带着儿化韵缓缓出场。还有卖酥鱼的,是一个中年大叔,黑黑的皮肤,也是骑一辆破旧的自行车,和他一样黑。他的声音是那种低音,感觉声音从他胸膛升起后又被喉咙压着,只能低低的喊出“酥鱼唉……酥鱼唉”,莫名的有一种沧桑感。他做的酥鱼用一个字概括,咸。咸的你必须就着点馒头大饼的。也正是因为咸,他才能在大夏天的卖酥鱼,不然酥鱼早就变臭鱼了。那时候一块钱就能买不少,一部分我们吃,另一部分部分给了猫儿吃。那酥鱼很小很细,稍微个头大点的,刺特别多,所以在人们条件好起来后,就几乎在农村绝技了。冰棍进了超市里的冰箱,不知咸酥鱼有没有找到它的安置地。
冬天里街上的叫卖声就一种,糖葫芦。那人车前有一大块用高粱杆子扎成的板,那样子类似于现在车前的挡风玻璃。上面插着好多亮晶晶的糖葫芦,样子很漂亮。那叫卖的人吐字不清,总是叫出了一种“糖糊喽”的感觉,人们笑他,糖都糊了,你这糖葫芦还能吃吗?他依然那样吆喝,直到消失的时侯也没有改过。街上的吆喝声种类也多,当然不是天天有,零零散散的给街道增添了一分热闹。小时候农村条件不好,纵然五天一个集,也不见得能在集市上买到需要的。这样说来街上的小贩们用自己的自行车给人们带来多一份选择。
初一美文摘抄500字(二)再见!七年级!
时间似一条涓涓不息的小溪,转眼之间,它以承载着我又过了一个春秋。挥挥手,我已告别初一;招招手,我也迎来了初二,内心太多的不舍,曾笑过,曾哭过,也曾疯狂过,永远也忘不了……
七年级的我们,依旧童心未泯,奋力地想从空虚无聊的日子里脱身离开,想去墙外的世界闯荡,当我们爬到墙顶时,却发现墙外的世界依旧如此。喜欢午后绵绵的阳光,趴在青草地上像只发霉的袜子晒会太阳,任由微风拂过我们的发梢,我们的脸颊。时间的脚柔软得像阵风一样,途经我们的身体和忧伤的岁月。心中,只剩下太多的恋,恋那些不为人知专属我们的记忆。
七年级的我们,好强,要面子,失败后,崩溃后,像只发狂的野兽不顾一切地冒雨冲出家门,细细的雨丝密密地斜织在天幕中,缀成一张朦胧的网。风虽不那么刺骨,但也有些许凉意。静静地行走在空无一人的大道上,似乎整个世界都那么灰白,想要将我放弃。脚步彷徨之间泪肆无忌惮地奔涌而出,突然间,雨停止了猖獗,抬起头,一把纯洁的伞如同一朵出淤泥而不染的夏日玉莲盛放在我的头顶上,盛放在我的心中。笑了,哭了,紧紧相拥在一起。
七年级的我们,有着朝气蓬勃的梦想。每天清晨的铃声如期而至,一抹又一抹风姿飒爽的身影边掠过,踏着轻盈的旋律,迎着火烈的朝阳,向远处飞奔,向目的地一路进发。操场上,八十三班,我们,构成了一幅流光溢彩的画卷,在时光中慢慢洇开,那么唯美却又那么蓬勃。时间似乎也就此定格。一个永恒的瞬间……
七年级的我们,是一个洋溢着幸福与喜悦的大家庭。曾经为老师的一次摔门而出,一起深感自责;也曾为一个同学的笑话,而哄堂大笑;也曾为运动会的一次次拼搏,一起高声呐喊……时间如同一把杀猪刀,刀刀催人老,八年级的我们,将一起携起手,向着未来奔去,向着我们火热的梦想奔去。我相信那些细碎的时光,终究淌不过指缝,终究被我紧紧地握于手心。
初一美文摘抄500字(三)风
风静静地吹着,把单薄零落的落叶卷在空中,上下,把落叶吓得到处乱窜;风又在河上到处嬉戏,河水泛起朵朵涟漪。
那风仿佛无时不在,所有的人们都逃不过它的踪迹,就像它在河岸中间把隐形的波浪追得团团转。风,似乎会领会,会安抚,会倾注朴素的感情。
我听着那阵阵微风,我闻着那争奇斗艳的花朵中的阵阵芳香,我看着那自然的景象,风摇曳着大树,用那和谐、悦耳的声音安抚着我,滋润着我的心灵,让我尽情畅游在自然的世界,把那些恩怨抛在脑后,让大脑在朴素中享受。
一位戴着老花镜、手拿拐杖的老人,在那里停住了,眼睛里闪烁着睿智的光芒,用他那灵敏的耳朵感受风的倾诉、感受风的抚慰,让风把街道上的喧闹声、粗俗的话语吹得无影无踪,让那位老人沉醉在它的怀抱。
一位失望的工人,叼着一根劣质的香烟,呼出朵朵乌黑的烟气,眉头紧皱,眼睛也紧闭,他在长久的沉思着。只见那阵阵清风将那乌黑的烟气吹得无影无踪,把那紧闭的眼睛轻轻地抚慰,把那紧皱的眉头慢慢舒展开,让那位工人露出了难得的笑容,将自己的失望在清风中慢慢净化……
风把人世间的恩怨净化了,在风的吹拂下,那可爱的孩子渐渐进入梦乡……风悄悄在房间里徘徊,吹着那轻柔的催眠曲,让孩子在那温暖的怀抱里痴痴地睡着,做着美好的梦。风用那朴素的景象,让人们尽情在大自然中畅游,在脑海中回忆,让我们在这清风中慢慢净化……
Man's youth is a e to.
为什么如此?因为在青春时代,生活充满了奇特而辛酸的不可思议的事。我们在青春年少时带着悲喜交集的心情,十分强烈而不可名状地感受到人生的奇特辛酸、不 可思议的经历。其实质是什么呢?其实质是这样的:青春年少的时候,虽然殷实富足,却非常贫穷;虽然力气强大,却一无所有;世间的富贵荣华触目皆是,简直可 以呼吸到,闻到嗅到,还可以品尝到,心中的自信按捺不住,深切地感受到整个被陶醉了的生活——人类迄今为止所知道的最幸运、最富有的美好幸福的生活, 只要我们决定向前迈步,奋发努力,便立即归我们所有了,并将永远属于我们。然而,我们知道,我们真的永远不能抓到什么,永远不能获得什么,永远不能占有什 么。一切匆匆过去,荡然无存。我们一出手它就烟消云散,飘然而去,一去不复返了。于是,心中泛起阵阵隐痛,看到了自己真实的面孔,看到了自己未来生活的必 然走向。
英语美文摘抄(三)
A young man is so strong, so mad, so certain, and so lost. He has everything and he is able to use nothing. He hurls the great shoulder of his strength forever against phantasmalbarriers, he is a parison.
青年人非常坚强,狂热自信,但容易迷惘混沌,虽然机缘无数,却把握不住,虽然身强体壮,试图冲破重重虚幻的屏障,却如同一个波浪,最终还是无力地消失在旷 远浩淼的大海中央,他伸出手想要抓住斑斓的云烟,他想得到世间的万物,渴望主宰一切,最终却是一无所获。最后,他被自己的力量所毁灭,被自己的饥饿所吞 食,被自己的财富弄得贫穷潦倒。他对金钱或财富的积累不以为意漫不经心,然而最终还是被自己的贪欲所吞噬。
英语美文摘抄(四)
And that is the reason why, when youth is gone, every man will look back upon that period of his life with infinite sorrow and regret. It is the bitter sorrow and regret of a man who knows that once he had a great talent and wasted it , of a man who knows that once he had a great treasure and got nothing from it , of a man who knows that he had strength enough for everything and never used it.
青春消逝,蓦然回首,无论是谁,心中都会充满无尽的忧伤,充满无穷的懊悔。曾经才智卓越,却白白浪费了,曾经财富殷实,却一无所有,曾经本事高强,却从未利用。一个认识到自己失落青春的人回忆起来总是充满悲伤和懊悔。

Ah, beautiful paris. For centuries this city has attracted the admiration of the an outdoor concert nearby classical, jazz, opera or chansons, those French folk songs. parisians love their music. The starry sky is their auditorium. You can also hear concerts in the chateaux and cathedrals. In paris the Music never ends.
Don't miss the highlight of paris evening: eating out. parisians are proud of their cuisine. And rightly so; it's s up in front of you the Notre Dame Cathedral (Cathedral of Our Lady)。 Stand in the square in front of the cathedral. Here, you are standing in the center of France. All distances are measured from the front of Notre Dame. Every road in France leads to her front door. All French kings and leaders have journeyed here to commemorate important occasions and give thanks. Notre Dame is the heart ofparis and the heart of France.
Your visit in paris has only just begun. You've just started to discover the charm ofthis old city. May the rest of yourjoumey be unforgettable. pany,even panion that es home at night he cannot sit doy that the latter does, though it may be a more condensed form of it.
大部分时候,我发现独处都是有益于健康的。有人陪伴,即使是最好的同伴,不久也会心生厌烦,兴致将消散。我爱独处。我没有遇见比孤独更好的伴侣了。我们置身国外,立行人群之中,通常比独处室内更加寂寞。一个思考着的或工作着的人总是孤独的,就让他去他想去的地方吧。孤独不是以和同伴之间的距离里程来衡量的。真正勤奋的学生,在剑桥学院一个拥挤的蜂房里,就像沙漠中的苦行僧一样孤单。农夫可以整日在田间或林中独自工作,耕地或者伐木,却并不感到寂寞,因为他有活儿干;可是当他晚上回到家中,却不能在房间坐下独自思考,而必须去“能看到乡亲”的地方消遣娱乐,正如他所想的,去补偿他五天的孤寂;因此他不明白学生如何可以整日整夜地独坐在家里,而不感到倦怠和“优郁”;但他没有意识到,学生虽然身处室内,却依然在自己的田野上耕耘,在自己的森林中采伐。就像农夫在他的田地林间工作一样,之后学生也和农夫一样要去寻求消遣,山要去交朋结友,只是娱乐方式可能更加简明一些。
短篇英语美文摘抄(三)
e to open war.ter if there were but one inhabitant to a square mile, as where I live.The value of a man is not in his skin.
我们相聚的时间十分短暂,没有足够的时间让彼此获得任何有价值的新事物。我们在一日三餐的时候见面,我们就如陈腐的奶略,却让彼此相互品尝出新味道。我们必须一致同意若干条规则,也就是我们所谓的礼节和礼貌,使这种经常的聚会相安无事,我们还要一致同意我们没有争吵的必要。我们在邮局碰面,在社交场合碰面,每天晚上在炉火边碰面;我们生活得很拥挤,相互干扰,彼此牵绊,我想,我们因此失去了对彼此的尊重。当然,所有重要的、真诚的沟通,次数少一些就足够了。想一想工厂里的女工——永远不会独处,甚至在梦中也难得是独自一人。如果一平方英里只有一个居民,就像我这样,那要好多了。一个人的价值不在于他的外在。

我的心在那高原
My heart's in the highlands, my heart is not here;
My heart's in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe
My heart's in the highlands wherever i go.
Farewell to the highlands, farewell to the north!
The birthplace of valour, the country of worth;
Wherever i wander, wherever I rove,
The hills of the highlands for ever I love.
Farewell to the mountains high covered with snow!
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below!
Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods!
Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods!
My heart's in the highlands, my heart is not here;
My heart's in the highlands, a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe
My heart's in the highlands wherever I go.
我的心在那高原,在追赶鹿群;
追赶着野鹿,跟踪着獐鹿,
我的心在那高原,无论我走到哪里。
再见了,高原,再见了,北方!
敬爱的家园,英雄的故乡;
无论我在哪里漂泊流浪,
高原的群山,永远在我心上!
再见了,白雪皑皑高耸的群山,
再见了,山下的河谷,青翠的山涧;
再见了,参天的大树,丛生的森林,
再见了,汹涌的激流,雷鸣的浪涛!
我的心在那高原,我的心不在这里,
我的心在那高原,在追赶鹿群;
追赶着野鹿,跟踪着獐鹿,
我的心在那高原,无论我走到哪里!

论说谎
Now as to the matter of lying. You want to be very careful about lying, otherwise you are nearlysure to get caught, once caught, you can never again be, in the eyes of the pure and the good,what you were before.Many a young person has injured himself permenently throuth a singleclumsy and ill-finished lie, the result of carelessness born of incomplete training. Someauthorities hold that the young ought not to lie at all. That, of course, is putting it ratherstronger than necessary. Still, while I can't go quite so far as that, I do maintain, and I believe Iam right, that the young ought to be temperate in the use of this great art until practice andexperience shall give them that confidence, elegance, precision which alone make theaccomplishment graceful and profitable. Patience, diligence, painstaking attention to detail- these are the requirments. These, in time ,will make the student perfect. Upon these, andupon these only, mayhe rely as the sure foundation for future eminence.
Think what tedious years of study, thought, practice, and experience ,went to the equipmentof the peerless old master who was able to impose upon the whole world with the lofty andsounding maxim that "Truth is mighty and will prevail."- The most majestic compoundfeature of fact which any of woman born has yet achieved.
For the history of our race and every individual's experience, are sown thick with evidence thata truth is not hard to kill and that a lie told well is immortal. There is in Bostain a monument ofthe man who discover the anesthesia. Many people are aware, in these later days, that he didn'tdiscover it at all, but stole the discovery from another man. Is the truth mighty, and will itprevail? No, My hearers, the monument is made of hard materials, but the lie it tells will outlasta millon years. An awkward, feeble, leaky lie is a thing which you ought to make it yourunceasing study to avoid. Why, you might as well tell the truth at once and be done with it.
现在来谈一谈说谎。你们可要特别谨慎地看待说谎;否则十有八九会被揭穿。一旦被揭穿,在善良和淳朴的人们眼中,你就再也不可能是以前的你了。许多年轻人,仅仅由于一次拙劣难圆的谎言,由于不完备的 教育 而导致轻率的后果-而使自己长期蒙受损失。一些权威人士认为年轻人根本不该说谎。当然,这种说法言之过甚,其实未必如此。不过,虽然我不能把话讲的太过分,我却坚信-我认为确乎如此,在实践和阅历使人获得信心,文雅,严谨之前,年轻人运用这门伟大的艺术时应当把握好分寸,因为只有这三点才能使说谎的本领无伤大雅甚至带来益处。耐心,勤奋,细致入微则是必备素质,经年累月,这些素质便会使学生变得完善起来。凭借这些,也只有凭借这些,他才可能为将来的出类拔萃打下牢固的基础。
试想,要经过学习,思考,实践, 经验 等多么漫长的岁月,那举世无双的大师才具备如此的素养,他使得整个世界接受了“真理是强大的,并且终将战胜一切”这句崇高而响彻云霄的格言,这是关于事实的复杂性所道出的最豪迈的一句话,至今任何一个出自娘胎的人都未有此成就。
原因是我们人类的历史以及每个人的经历都深深地印证了这样的事实:一个真理不难抹杀,一个说的巧妙的谎言则经久不衰。在波士顿,人们为纪念发现麻醉法的人而立了一座纪念碑:很多人到近期才知道,那个人根本没有发现麻醉法,而是窃取了另一个人的发现。这个真理强大吗?它终会取胜吗?唉,非也,听众们,虽然纪念碑是用坚硬的材料建造的,而它所散布的谎言却将比它持久百万年。你们应该不断研究如果避免制造那些拙劣,无力而又破绽百出的谎言;诸如此类的谎言比起一个普通事实来,决不具有更加真实的永久性。嗨,你们倒不如既讲真话又同真理打交道。
初中英语必背美文赏析
爱的礼物
If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong ora clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and allknowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I amnothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, butdo not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does notinsist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, butrejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they willcease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesyonly in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child,I thought like a child; when I became and adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see inmirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully,even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and thegreatest of these is love.
就算我能说万人的方言和天使的话语,但如果没有爱,我不过就如鸣锣一般;就算我有预知未来的能力,就算我精通各种知识和奥秘,就算我有坚定的信念,但如果没有爱,我就什么都算不上;就算我拿所有的财物周济穷人,就算我能做出舍己为人的壮举,但如果没有爱,我仍将一无所有。
爱是一种忍耐,爱是一种友善;爱不是嫉妒,不是自大,不是鲁莽,不是固执己见,不是轻易发怒。爱意味着憎恶不义,赞赏真理;爱意味着包容一切,相信一切,对生活充满希望,并能忍受生活中的一切。
爱是永无止境的,但又是有尽头的;就像知识一样,必将归于乌有。我们现在搜掌握的知识很有限,当我们掌握了完整的知识时,有限的知识必将归于乌有。当我还是一个孩子的时候,我像孩子一样说话,像孩子一样思考问题,像孩子一样推理;但我一旦成年,就不再像孩子一样了。现阶段,我们很多时候好像是从镜子里观看事物,对很多事物都看不清,但有朝一日我们会直面这些事物。现阶段,我知道的东西很有限,但有朝一日我会懂得一切。如今,常存在人们心中的东西有三样:信念、希望和爱,而其中爱是最重要的!
