May I have your attention, please? I have an announcement to make.The Students? Union is going to hold a party on Saturday evening, August 15, to welcome our friends from the United States.The party will be held in the roof garden of the Main Building(主摟).It will begin at 7:30 p.m.There will be music, dancing, singing, games and exchange of gifts.Will everybody please bring along a small gift for this purpose? Remember to wrap it up, sign your name and write a few words of good wishes(祝愿).Don?t forget: 7:30 Saturday evening, roof garden, Main Building.There?s sure to be a lot of fun.Everybody is welcome.Dear Mike，I was so pleased to hear from you last Thursday and now I am writing to tell you some changes in our school.Our school was set up in the 1950s.It is one of the biggest schools in our city.But in the past, it had no more than 200 students and 20 teachers.There was only a small playground and five classrooms.However, some changes have taken place.A teaching building with 20 classrooms and a library have been built during the past ten years.The new playground is about 1,000 square meters.Besides, a computer center is being built now and it will be completed next year.I hope you can come here for a visit some day.Best wishes.Yours, Li Hua

Today we visited a farm.Early in the morning, we met at the school gate and went there together The farm workers gave us a warm welcome.Then the head of the farm showed us around.How glad we were to see the crops and vegetables growing well.At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine.After a ten minutes’ break, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes(笑話)or stories.Two of us even played a game of chess.The time passed quickly.Before we knew it,we had to say goodbye to the workers.The other day my brother and I went to the cinema by bicycle.My brother was riding with me sitting on the seat behind.As we came to the crossroads(十字路口)a young man and a girl came up and stopped “We’ve found you at long last,”they said, “but we didn’t know them.Pointing to a policeman not far away,the young man explained.“He stopped us about half an hour ago and made us catch the offender.So come on,stand here.Hope you don?t have to wait as long as we did.Good luck.5.My hometown

I was born in a beautiful town with high mountains around it.The mountains are covered with all kinds of green bamboo.Through the town runs a small stream.It?s said that a new railway is going to be built to the east of the town and a bamboo factory to the west.All the children of the school age can go to school.If anyone is ill,he can go to see the doctor in the newly-built hospital.People in the town are hard-working and never take the backwardness lying down.Though they are having a richer and better life,they are not satisfied with what they have got.They are working hard to build their town into a modern one.6．

One of the most interesting places to visit in Singapore is the bird park.It?s located in the industrial area of Singapore,called Jurong.The bird park is about 12 kilometres from the centre of the city and it?s easy to get there by bus or taxi.There are hundreds of beautiful birds from many different parts of the world, includingp enguins, parrots,eagles and ostriches.The birds are kept in large cages.There?s also a very large cage which you can walk inside to get a closer look at the birds.It takes about two hours to see all the birds.You can walk around the park or ride on the bus.The best time to visit the park is in the early morning or late in the afternoon,when it is cooler.7.I live in a flat.When you go in you come into the hall.The toilet is on the left and the bathroom is on the right.There are two doors in front of you.The door on the left leads to a bedroom.The door on the right leads to a living room.When you go into the living room there are two doors on the right.The first door leads to the kitchen.The second door leads to the dining room.There is also another door on the left near the end of the living room.This door leads to the second bedroom.There is a balcony in front of the living room and the second bedroom.8.Mrs Wang decided to make a trip to Beijing.When she told her son about her decision,he was so overjoyed that he jumped up.They began to pack their luggage.When the day came,the son became worried,for noboday would take care of his flowers.They would die if they were not watered.Suddenly a good idea came to his mind.“Mum”,he said to his mother, “we can use a piece of cloth to take care of the flowers”.He showed her mother what he meant by putting one end of the cloth into the basin, full of water,and the other end into the flower pot.Three days later,when they came back from Beijing, the flowers were still alive and even started to bloom.On day a man was riding along the road.Suddenly a car was running towards him.He was so shocked that he quickly turned to the left side.But it was too late.The car knocked him down heavily.When the driver realized he had caused an accident, he got such a fright that he fled with his car.He was soon out of sight, leaving the man helpless on the spot.But some passers-by happened to see what had happened and reported to the police the number of the car.Several days later the driver was caught.Nowadays watching TV has become part of people?s life in most families.Although there are many excellent programs for children, many people feel it harmful for them.There are several reasons for this.First, some programs are not good for children to watch.Second, television can affect children?s eyesight.Third, if they watch TV too long each day, they won?t be able to finish their homework in time.So watching too much television can be harmful to children, both mentally and physically.Parents should know what program the children are watching.Every coin has two sides.Children must be under control when they watch television.11.The Way to Keep Healthy

It?s very important for us to keep healthy in our everyday life.But why? Here are some advice for you to follow.First you should have a healthy diet.It?s necessary to eat enough fish and vegetables, because they contain all kinds of vitamin you need every day.But do not eat too much fat, such as butter or anything too fatty.Too many sweets can do harm to your teeth.So you had better not eat too many sweets or chocolates and keep off coffee.Good habits can help your keep fit.Doing regular exercise is certainly a good way to ensure your body is healthy.After a day?s work, an eight-hour sleep is needed.And avoid working or studying too hard.Remember smoking can damage your health.So never smoke.Computers will be used more and more in the hospital s of tomorrow.For example, a doctor can talk to the computer and explain what is wrong with a person.Then the computer will tell him what to do.Not only do computers check a person?s health but also they keep information records of patients with the same illness.The possibility that these records will be printed by computers any time needed will be turned into reality soon The computer programs for storing whole texts about different illnesses have already been well developed to help medical workers already..Scientists are working hard so that computers can save doctors a lot of time and work and play a more and more important part in hospitals in the future.Today pollution has become a more serious problem to us.It means that the air, seas, rivers , and land are polluted by waste or poisonous things.It does harm not only to human beings but also to animals.We can not have fresh air because many factories have poisonous smoke sent into the air.Beautiful parks are made dirty by plastics tins and bags.Fish die from polluted water.It?s said that strange diseases have appeared in some places because of pollution.I hope scientists can find ways to solve the serious problems.We are looking forward to seeing clear sky, clean rivers and beautiful parks again.Extreme Joy Begets Sorrow

Mike was Mr and Mrs /smith?s only son.They loved him very much.One day Mr Smith bought Mike a new bike.The moment he had the bike, Mike rode it round and round.How happy he was!Mr and Mrs Smith stood nearby watching happily.Now Mike managed to ride with his hands off, “ Look at me!” How proud he felt!While he was looking at his parents cheerfully.Mike sped up the bike.Oh, no!Off the bike the overjoyed boy.He got gbadly hurt.Mr and Mrs Smith went into deep sorrow.It was the right saying” Extreme joy begets sorrow”.The story teaches us the we must think of danger in time joy.Hello, everyone.It?s so nice to meet all of you here.I have been studying in this school since last September, and I have joined in quite a few very popular and unforgettable after-class activities.The school often holds the “ English Corner” , in which the students practice their spoken English.I have learned a lot more about China by taking with the Chinese students.We had a New Year party with wonderful performances of singing and dancing.In March, the school organized a tree-planting activity in the countryside.Recently many students took an active part in the English Speech Contest.All these activities have a good effect on the training of the students? abilities, so they are warmly welcomed by them.Thank you.As we all know now, the earth is like our mother.But look at what we have done to her.The destruction of the rain forests, and wildlife, the ozone layer depletion, the polluted rivers and seas.Once she was beautiful and rich, but she has become dirty and poor.She gives life to all the living things on the earth, beautiful and balanced nature.Can she bear to have children destroying everything? Can we bear to see our mother suffering so much? Is this the way to treat our mother?

Droughts, floods, acid rain.These are the punishment from nature.So we should keep in mind that we have only one earth.We should treat it like mother.It ?s our duty to do something to cure her, love her, and take care of her so that we can save the earth and save ourselves.As the saying goes, Time is money.“Yes, indeed the case.” But in my opinion, time is more valuable than money.The reason is that when money is spent, we can earn it back.However, when time is gone, it will never come back.Se we must value our time.From birth to death, time is limited for all of us.So we should make good use of it.As students, what we should do first is to study well and obtain knowledge so that we can serve our country in the future.However, some people don?t know the value of time.They spend time doing meaningless things, such as smoking, drinking and even gambling.They don?t realize that wasting time is equal to washing a part of their valuable life.We should form a good habit of saving time.Don?t put off what we should do till tomorrow.Laziness will bring us poverty as well as failure.AAaAaAz

第二篇：初中英語美文

(B)The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island.He prayed every day for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions.But then one day, after searching for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky.The worst had happened;everything was lost.He was stunned with grief and anger.“God, how could you do this to me!” he cried.Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island.It had come to rescue him.“How did you know I was here?” the man asked one of his rescuers.“We saw your smoke signal,” they replied.It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad.But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering.Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground, it just may be a smoke signal that summons the grace of God.For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves, God has a positive answer for it.1.What kind of accident was the man involved in? 2.How did the rescuers find him?

能像一冊書籍

能像一頁詩扉

帶我們領略世人的真諦；

即令你一貧如洗

也沒有任何柵欄能阻擋

你在書的王國遨游的步履；

多么質樸無華的車騎！

可是它卻裝載了

人類靈魂中全部的美麗！

木蘭詩

樂府.橫吹曲辭《全漢三國晉南北朝詩》

唧唧復唧唧，木蘭當戶織。不聞機杼聲，惟聞女嘆息。

問女何所思，問女何所憶。女亦無所思，女亦無所憶。昨夜見軍帖，可汗大點兵，軍書十二卷，卷卷有爺名。阿爺無大兒，木蘭無長兄，愿為市鞍馬，從此替爺征。東市買駿馬，西市買鞍韉，南市買轡頭，北市買長鞭。旦辭爺娘去，暮宿黃河邊，不聞爺娘喚女聲，但聞黃河流水鳴濺濺。旦辭黃河去，暮至黑山頭，不聞爺娘喚女聲，但聞燕山胡騎鳴啾啾。

萬里赴戎機，關山度若飛。朔氣傳金柝，寒光照鐵衣。將軍百戰(zhàn)死，壯士十年歸。

歸來見天子，天子坐明堂。策勛十二轉，賞賜百千強。可汗問所欲，木蘭不用尚書郎；愿馳千里足，送兒還故鄉(xiāng)。

爺娘聞女來，出郭相扶將；阿姊聞妹來，當戶理紅妝；小弟聞姊來，磨刀霍霍向豬羊。開我東閣門，坐我西閣床，脫我戰(zhàn)時袍，著我舊時裳，當窗理云鬢，對鏡帖花黃。出門看伙伴，伙伴皆驚惶。同行十二年，不知木蘭是女郎。

雄兔腳撲朔，雌兔眼迷離。雙兔傍地走，安能辨我是雄雌? 你知道花木蘭嗎？中國還有哪些像她這樣的巾幗英雄？

春之消息

鄭振鐸

楊柳醒了!微微地張開倦眼。煦的春風，把他披上綠裳。

好明亮的日光呀！楊柳打開大門，迎接這絢爛的朝陽。快樂的孩子們笑道： “春天來了，來了，楊柳出來了。”

不知道和小問號

魯 兵

有個小朋友，名叫“不知道”，一天大清早，碰見“小問號”。

“小問號”問這又問那，“不知道”都說：“不知道!” 問他一百個“為什么”，他說一百個“不知道”。

“小問號”，好心焦，“你是怎么啦，盡說不知道？” “不知道”笑了笑：

“我的名字嘛，就叫‘不知道’。” “小問號”，皺眉毛，“你呀，啥也不知道，這可怎么好？” “不知道”，把頭搖，“你問‘這可怎么好？’，我也不知道。” “小問號”，跳了跳，跳進“不知道”的小書包，跟著他，到處跑，跟著他，上學校。

“小問號”

一看見“不知道”把頭搖，就知道

“不知道”想要說：“不知道！”“小問號”連忙伸出小腦袋，問這問那問個沒完沒了，“不知道”越聽越有味，把人家的問答統(tǒng)統(tǒng)記牢。

“不知道”和“小問號”，做了朋友很要好 后來，你猜怎么了？ “不知道”改名兒啦！

改成了“都知道”。

星

星

作者：臧克家

我愛聽，人家把星 叫做星星。

夜空是另一個世界，星星是它的子民，誰也不排擠誰，彼此密密地挨近。

它們是那么渺小，渺小得沒有名字，它們用自己的光圈，告訴自己的存在。

仰起臉來，向著那白茫茫的銀河，一，二，三，你數(shù)，呵，它們是那么多，那么多??

字典公公家里的爭吵

金逸銘

字典公公家里吵吵鬧鬧，吵個不停的原來是標點符號。看它們的眼睛瞪得多大，聽他們的嗓門提得多高。

感嘆號拄著拐杖，小問號張大耳朵，調皮的小逗號急得蹦蹦跳。

首先發(fā)言的是感嘆號，它的嗓門就像銅鼓敲： “伙伴們，我的感情最強烈，文章里誰也沒有我重要！”

感嘆號的話招來一陣嘲笑，頂不服氣的是小問號： “哼，要是沒有我來發(fā)問，怎么能引起讀者的思考？”

小逗號說話頭頭是道，它和頓號一起反駁小問號： “要是我們不把句子點開，文章就會像一根長長的面條。”

學問深的要算省略號，它的話總是那么深奧： “要講我的作用么?? 哼，不說大家也知道。”

水平高的要數(shù)句號，它總愛留在后面作總結報告： “只有我才是文章的主角，沒有我，話就說得沒完沒了。”

大家爭得不可開交，字典公公把意見發(fā)表： “孩子們，你們都很重要，少一個，我們的文章就沒這樣美妙。

“滴水匯成了大江，碎石堆成了海島，大家不要把個人作用片面強調，任何時候都不要驕傲！”

小朋友，你聽了字典公公家里的爭吵，心里想的啥，能否讓我知道？

秋

天

洪志明 秋天 樹林里 下著彩色的雪

樹林里的小動物 淋著彩色的雪 蓋著彩色的被子 做著彩色的夢

夢里都是秋天彩色的笑聲 秋天，樹林里 下著彩色的雪 黃色的、金黃色的雪

散發(fā)著黃色的、金黃色的香味

秋天，金黃色的香味 在小動物們 彩色的夢里飄著

啊！好香、好美的雪喔！

帽子的秘密

柯巖

我的哥哥可不是個普通的人，他是一個三年級生； 他一連考了那么些個五分，媽媽送他一頂帽子當獎品。

這頂帽子的顏色可真藍，漆黑的帽檐亮閃閃； 別說把它戴在頭上，就是看看心里也喜歡。

可是這頂帽子有點奇怪，它的帽檐老是掉下來，媽媽把它縫了又縫，不知道為什么它總是壞。

媽媽叫我跟哥哥一塊兒，好看看帽檐怎么會掉下來，可是哥哥只要一見我，馬上就把我趕開。

今天我偷偷地到了他的學校，這事兒一下子就弄明白，他們七八個三年級生，一出校門就把帽檐扯下來。

他們在空地上來回地跑 又喊“靠岸”又喊“拋錨”，哥哥拿著個望遠鏡--木頭的，四面八方到處瞧。

我還沒決定躲不躲，望遠鏡已經(jīng)瞄準了我，忽然背后一聲喊，我叫人抓住怎么也掙不脫。

兩個水兵向哥哥敬禮，報告抓到了什么“奸細”，哥哥看也不看我一眼，就下命令把我槍斃。

我生氣地說：“我不是什么奸細，我是你的弟弟!” 可是哥哥皺著眉說： “是奸細就不是弟弟!”

這么欺負人還能行? 我就又踢又打吵個不停，兩個水兵只好安慰我，說槍斃是假的一點不疼。

我說：“反正我不能叫你們槍斃，不管它疼還是不疼； 我長大了要當解放軍，隨便說我是奸細就不成!”

水兵們都哈哈大笑，哥哥也只得把命令取消，大伙說：“這可不是個膽小鬼，歡迎他參加我們'海軍部隊'。”

晚上我回家見了媽媽，我向她談了船艙又談甲板，我告訴她什么叫做艦隊，還說天下最勇敢的就是海員。

至于哥哥的帽子嘿…… 我說：“這是秘密您最好別管。媽媽摸著我的頭發(fā)笑了： ”那好吧，親愛的海員!“

我奇怪媽媽怎么知道，她說：”這也是個秘密。“ 她說她還有幾句話，托我給所有的小水兵捎去：

”真正的海員堅強英勇，熱愛祖國熱愛勞動，你們能不能學習英雄，不看帽子要看行動!“ 種眼淚的孩子

我把眼淚

種在媽媽的手背上，媽媽的手中

長出動物園的門票，” 于是，我和小猴子聊天 向大狗熊問好。

我把眼淚

種在爺爺?shù)暮永铮瑺敔數(shù)暮?長成一棵大榕樹，于是，我聽到百靈和畫眉 嘀哩哩地歡叫。

我把眼淚

種在爸爸的書桌上，爸爸的書桌

長出一本又一本畫報，于是，我和獨眼巨人打仗 還和爸爸尋找金銀島。

我覺得 我是一朵云，一朵會落淚的云，當然，誰也不知道 我哭的時候，心里卻在暗暗發(fā)笑。

抓住時間

姜華 時間是水中的魚 游得極快 一不小心

它就溜得無影無蹤 每一個人都有 自己特定的時間 這個時間

只有自己才能把握 時間是一尾魚 在又密又牢的網(wǎng)中 時間是無望的魚 抓住時間

讓生命鐫刻在流失的 時光中 成為一個事實 抓住時間 將知識的花環(huán) 懸在自己的脖頸 歲月永恒 知識是一張網(wǎng)

風

箏

關登瀛 風箏，在春風里飄。飛過花叢，飄過樹梢，迎著春汛，追逐春潮。

風箏，在春風里飄。江北的山野，舉起一只只花籃； 江南象彩色的錦緞，在春光中閃耀；

藍天中的雁，一行行透明的詩； 枝頭的鳥，啼出曲曲動人的音樂。一片春汛連著一片春汛，一個喜報又一個喜報，呵，祖國，乘春的列車，向未來迅跑。

我把手中的風箏線，貼近耳朵，聽風箏說，它將把春的喜訊，向我報告。小弟和小貓

柯巖

我家有個小弟弟，聰明又淘氣，每天爬上又爬下，弄得滿頭滿臉都是泥。

媽媽叫他來洗澡，裝沒聽見他就跑； 爸爸拿鏡子把他照，他閉上眼睛咯咯地笑。

姐姐抱來個小花貓，拍拍爪子舔舔毛，兩眼一瞇，“妙??妙??” 誰跟我玩，誰把我抱？

弟弟伸出小黑手，小貓連忙望后跳，胡子一撅頭一搖：

“不妙，不妙，太臟太臟我不要！”

姐姐聽了哈哈笑，爸爸媽媽皺眉毛；

小弟弟聽了真害臊：

“媽，媽！快快給我洗個澡！”

落 葉

秋天 每一枚落葉 都躺在地上 做著彩色的蝴蝶夢

哼著輕快的歌曲 從金黃色的落葉中 穿過

一下子就驚起滿天的蝴蝶 每一枚落葉 都在金黃色的風里 實現(xiàn)了它 美麗的夢想

河馬寫詩

高洪波

動物園里的河馬無事可做，突然想寫一首詩。因為他知道自己的祖先，曾寫過赫赫有名的著作。他的祖先在希臘，寫過史詩《伊利亞特》。荷馬的大名盡人皆知，他的后代怎能那么懦弱！大河馬整天構思，在池中攪起水花浪波。吃起水草味同嚼蠟，小眼珠變得黯然失色。

看河馬這么辛苦地創(chuàng)作，一只麻雀跑過來饒舌： “聽說荷馬是人的名字，和你的種族沒有瓜葛！”

河馬一聽大為光火，一口水噴走多嘴的家伙。他認定麻雀出于嫉妒，才進行這么惡毒的挑撥。

河馬為了祖先的榮譽，至今仍在苦苦地思索。哪怕成不了一名詩人，他也能變?yōu)橹膶W者。

科學的種子

尹世霖

爸爸說我愛胡思亂想，媽媽說我的膽子太大； 可我說他們的眼睛，沒有看清時代的變化。

爺爺小時候愛木頭槍，媽媽小時候愛布娃娃； 雙腿夾一根竹竿，就是奔馳的駿馬。

我愛望著夜空游動的人造衛(wèi)星，把一個個星圖描畫； 想著有朝一日，乘飛船探訪天涯。

我愛看熒屏上的海底世界，辨認各種魚蟹、龍蝦； 向往去富饒的大海，采礦、牧魚、安家。

我們今天的眼前世界，是這樣美妙，這樣廣大； 我們的理想小鳥，飛翔在無垠的藍天下。

如果說科學是一粒種子，這種子已在心田萌芽； 明天，閃著奇光的科學之果，將獻給我們美好的國家。歡樂的小鳥

白冰

媽媽的目光，是歡樂的小鳥，當我悲傷的時候，小鳥把我的淚珠銜跑。

媽媽的話音，是歡樂的小鳥，當我痛苦的時候，小鳥把我的痛苦趕跑。

媽媽的歌聲，是歡樂的小鳥，它領我走進彩色的夢，去和小鹿一起追趕熊貓，還騎著五彩的孔雀，飛進長滿娃娃樹的山坳……

給老師 梅紹靜

多么想做一棵綠樹，初春的季節(jié)站在你的窗前。

你會驚喜地凝望我的新葉，或者叫一聲：“發(fā)芽了，快看！”

為了讓你這樣地看我，我悄悄地送走每一個黑夜和白天。

——我在從地下、從天上吸取營養(yǎng)，讓光彩滲進我的每一張葉片。

詩的王國

我來講個故事，從前—— 也許就是現(xiàn)在 有這么個地方

天永遠是藍的 象藍寶石那樣藍 太陽都用金液 染得每塊黑泥發(fā)亮

蜜蜂忙著釀蜜 蚯蚓忙著耕田 小小的螞蟻 也擔任了運輸隊長

誰工作，誰就快樂 他們吃著自己的糧食 花為什么開了 小鳥為他們歌唱

野狗愛搗蛋 他被處罰了 水蛇不能再吃青蛙 狼也不敢再欺侮山羊

豬玀老愛睡覺 就要活活餓死 小偷刺猬成了勞動英雄 斑鳩自己動手造住房

我的故事講完了 這是什么地方 你知道嗎？ 你先來想一想

這是詩的王國 每個人都工作 每個人都快樂 每個人都是國王

星 星 草

金波

從天上落下的星星 深深地埋進春天的泥土中 有春雨

靜靜的澆著星星草 開放的花朵也靜悄悄

當金色的季節(jié)到來 我們就去收獲星星 掛在冬夜的房檐下 讓寒冷的夜色也亮晶晶

散文詩篇

在兒童文學這個百花園里，兒童散文詩是一枝別具風姿的花。它的字里行間，跳動著真、善、美的童心。它，既有詩的靈魂，又有散文無拘無束的飄逸。孩子們，相信你們看到這些佳作時，會情不自禁地吟誦起來，因為這里有你們對美好生活的向往，對崇高理想的追求。

冰凌花

王慧騏

小弟弟拍著小手，驚奇地喚著：“媽媽！媽媽，你瞧，玻璃窗上開花了！”

呦，真的嘛，一朵朵晶亮的冰凌花，展著纖麗的瓣，吐著柔嫩的芽，開得多嬌！

弟弟問媽媽：“這花兒是誰種的呀？”

媽媽笑了：“那是你春姨想著你，念著你，在你夜里睡覺時，悄悄種下的呀！”

吳 珹

黃昏，云朵遮住了月亮。

地上的熱氣，還在蒸發(fā)，天氣仍然那么熱。

我們都要搖著蒲扇，到院子里乘涼去了。可是，他還提著小燈籠，在草地上飛呀飛。

——是給迷路的小螞蟻帶路的呢，還是去為上班的紡織姑娘照明？．．．．．． 飛呀，飛呀，從草地上飛過，從大樹下飛過，他不怕熱，也不辭辛苦。

照呀，照呀，他的小燈籠，像童話里的星星，一閃一閃，那么迷人！

畫

眉

陳秋影

養(yǎng)鳥人把一個精致的籠子掛在春天的樹枝上。

畫眉望著籠子外面的天空，望著枝頭新綻開嫩葉，唱起來了！它的聲音清麗而婉轉，就像是喉嚨里轉動著一顆奇妙的珠子。眼際那兩道微向上挑的白羽，確像畫出的眉毛，給它添了幾分好奇和驚詫的表情。

望著這個可愛的鳥兒，我心中突然涌起一絲惆悵。我真想對它說：“畫眉，如果你不是在籠子里唱，你的歌聲一定會更美的！”

我愛……

張壽彭

我愛科學。我愛讀科學的書。

它，給我打開科學的天窗；它，給我插上科學的翅膀。科學幻想真好玩。

我可以坐著飛船到宇宙里轉一圈；我可以到海底公園里去度夏；我可以乘飄行汽車去上學，又輕快又快活……

科學童話真有趣。

那里，鳥兒會講話，野獸會這個那個，雷打鼓、雨敲鑼，太陽公公笑呵呵，他們悄悄地告訴我那么多我不知道的知識和故事…… 科學的詩也很感人。

不信，我給你讀幾首高士其爺爺寫的詩，其中，我最喜歡那首《我們的土壤媽媽》……

我愛科學。我愛讀科學的書。長大了，我要成為科學家。

落 日

雷抒雁

那是誰家的孩子，竟這樣粗心大意。你看，紅艷艷的一個氣球，丟落在一叢樹椏上，就跑回家去了。他媽媽喊他去吃晚飯嗎？也許，氣球的線繩纏繞在樹枝上，高高地，拆不開，扯不斷，他哭叫著去找媽媽了。你看，一群群的鳥兒遠遠飛過來，望著那紅紅的氣球，在爭吵著；有的嘲笑那傻孩子，有的在為那孩子惋惜。

孤零零的氣球，獨自爬下樹梢，也許，它想去尋找它的小主人。于是，尖銳的樹枝撕破了它的衣服，經(jīng)泄氣地爬在地上哭泣，慢慢地睡著了。

圓圓的明月，是它的影子呢，還是它的夢？

月亮躲到云里去了……

郭

風

夜云從山崗和林梢后面涌上來了。月亮向云中游進去了，躲到云里去了。

夜把輕紗的幕垂下來了，垂到那個草叢的村莊里了。這是，我看見草叢的村莊里，那些用草葉和草莖編成的小屋，有的把窗關上了。關的把電燈扭暗了。這時，我聽見紡紗的小姑娘和她的老祖母上床休息去了。這時，我看到草叢的村莊里，月光音樂會散場了，很多很多的小孩子，都離開那座露天音樂廳了……

那么，我這個編造的童話，現(xiàn)在也暫時不講了，我也休息去了。晚安！

星 星

黃成浩

星星亮在天邊，星星倒映在水底。無數(shù)顆星星閃爍在夜空里，夜空是深透了。

天文小組的小年人啊，一雙雙烏溜溜、晶亮亮的眼珠，注視著這許多星星：觀察星座的方位，記錄星座的運行……

他們的捉摸宇宙的變化，在揭開天體的秘密……

天啦，水啦，無數(shù)的星星和深邃的夜空都縮小了，走進了他們小小的瞳孔。

種 子

張繼樓

幾陣春風，幾場春雨。

冰雪早化成水珠交給土地媽媽藏去了。

在雪被下整整睡了一個冬天的種子們，還沒有蘇醒哩！土地媽媽有些生氣了。

她擰著一個個小鼻子，輕輕地呼喚著： “醒醒吧！我的淘氣的孩子們。”

頑皮的種子伸了個懶腰，打了個哈欠，伸出綠色的手掌，揉了揉眼睛，懶懶地探出身子向天空瞧了瞧。外面是萬里藍天，一片陽光。“真糟糕，又起遲了。”

在濕潤的空氣里，種子一個勁地往上長，往上長。

垂 柳

張繼樓

堤邊，垂柳吐芽了。

披一身綠，發(fā)出淡淡的清香，在春風里飄揚。溪水給映綠了，讓絲絲柳條，一點一個笑渦。

幾陣春雨，給柳絲串上珍珠。像一掛透明的簾子，懸掛在堤邊。簾外青山綠溶溶。

折一把柳條，編成一根翠綠的鞭子。催促春耕的牛兒，把步子放快些。

在翠綠的鞭影里，黑油油的泥土露出胸膛，在迎接甜絲絲的春雨，在等待飽滿的種子。

帶一根柳條回去吧，把它插在門環(huán)上，讓春天走遍家家戶戶。

春．夏．秋．冬

望 安

春

我的小綿羊，剛剛剪完毛。瞧它一脫大衣，就樂得咩咩叫。“來，小綿羊，我領你吃青草。”

看到好久不見的青草，小綿羊饞得住地吃，美得直撒歡兒。小綿羊吃青草，我在河邊坐。河邊，一排垂柳。綠瑩瑩的柳枝上，小鳥正開音樂會。垂柳的枝頭伸進解凍的小河，跟小河握手。

河對面，一片綠油油的麥苗鋪到天邊，陽光下，風兒像童話里的仙女，用溫柔的手，撫摸著麥苗。

咦，什么時候飄下了小雨？像綠絲線，從地上牽起麥苗，麥苗長啦！高啦！

“咩——咩！”小綿羊又高興地叫，一定是掛滿雨珠的小草更鮮嫩了。

雨，濕了我的頭發(fā)，濕了小綿羊的毛，可我們舍不得回去，我們慢慢地走，見那星星點點的花骨朵全開啦！我想；這雨一定是甜的，便忍不住仰起頭，用舌尖去接那綠色的雨滴。小綿羊卻搶先嘗到了甜味，它叫著；

“咩——咩” 好像說； “蜜——蜜！”

夏

太陽像一個大火球。

柳葉打著卷兒，小花低著頭，湖水冒著熱氣，小魚該不會煮熟吧！啊，別急別急！蜻蜓飛來了，飛得很低很低，在湖面轉圈，它報告：好消息，就要下雨，就要下雨。

風來了，云黑了，打閃了，雷公公跑來啦！嘩！嘩！嘩！嘩！大雨快活地下。

下了一陣兒，風去了，云散了，閃停了，雷公公回家了。天邊掛起晚霞。

柳葉，小花滴著水珠，像剛洗完澡。多干凈，多精神。你聞，連空氣都是香的。

湖里，小魚擺著尾巴游得多高興，小青蛙蹦上岸開始賽歌：咕呱！咕呱！

湖邊，有人乘涼，有人散步，橋上來了一隊小朋友。湖水像面鏡子：照著天，照著橋，照著那過橋的小朋友。啊，像一群小鳥飛過雨后的彩虹！

秋

老師教我畫畫，還教我涂上美麗的顏色。

星期天，我在家鋪開畫紙，我要畫一張頂好的畫送給老師。畫什么呢？我想啊想。忽然，窗外飄來桂花香，我望去，啊，眼前是一幅多美的畫！

我先畫桂花，把那金燦燦的桂花畫了很多很多，想讓老師也聞到桂花的香味。

我再畫草坪，發(fā)現(xiàn)草坪不像夏天那么碧綠，草尖仿佛染上了透明的金黃，那草坪邊的一行小白楊，綠葉中變出幾片金黃的葉子，隨風舞動著，像飛來了金翅鳥。

我又畫通往果園的大路，陽光下，遠處一片果林閃著多少明亮的星星，那是蘋果熟啦。別說我畫的蘋果太多太多，今年的果園就是這樣。

窗外的風景畫完了，我剛要放下筆，見通往果園的大路空空的，像少點什么。啊！想起來了，我們幾個小伙伴要到果園去，要把掉下來的大蘋果拾到籃子里，交給果樹隊。想到這兒，我連忙在大路上畫了幾個提籃的小伙伴。

明天，我要把這張秋天的畫送給老師，還要請她猜猜：那小伙伴里哪個是我？

冬

亮晶晶的小雪花滿天開放，潔白的小朵飄啊飄啊！小雪花給云杉穿上了雪白的大衣，云杉暖暖的；小雪花給麥苗蓋上雪白的被子，麥苗暖暖的。

淘氣的北風吹著口哨來啦，想吹落雪大衣，想吹跑雪被子。北風去吹雪大衣，卻吹響了一串悅耳的鈴聲。咦，是小雪花把鈴鐺掛在云杉上了？哦，不，不，是云杉的雪大衣結了一層冰花，風兒一吹，叮鈴、叮鈴…….北風去吹雪被子，卻滑了一大跤，一滑滑到天邊邊，北風回頭一看：

“嗬，好大的雪襪子，我可吹不動！” 雪被下，小麥苗正在做快樂的夢：

夢見春天，它們穿著小綠裙，在藍天下跳集體舞；夢見夏天，它們結滿金黃的麥穗，在陽光下唱豐收歌。

第四篇：初中英語美文欣賞

A Simple Gesture 只是舉手之勞

Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed that the boy ahead of him had tripped and dropped all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape recorder.Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered articles.一天放學后，馬克正走在回家的路上，突然看到前面的小男孩絆倒了，他帶的東西撒了一地，其中有很多書、兩件羊毛衫、一個棒球拍、一只手套，還有一個小型錄音機。看到這種場景，馬克不禁蹲下身，幫助男孩撿拾起來。

Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry part of the burden.As they walked Mark discovered that the boy's name was Bill, that he loved video games, baseball and history, that he was having a lot of trouble with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.由于他們同路，馬克便幫男孩拿著一些東西。他們邊走邊聊。馬克了解到男孩名叫比爾，他喜歡玩電腦游戲，喜歡打棒球；他很喜歡歷史課，但其他科目卻學得一塌糊涂。馬克還了解到他剛跟女朋友分了手。

They arrived at Bill's home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and to watch some television.The afternoon passed pleasantly with a few laughs and some shared small talk, then Mark went home.They continued to see each other around school, had lunch together once or twice, then both graduated from junior high school.They ended up in the same high school where they had brief contacts over the years.Finally the long awaited senior year came, and three weeks before graduation, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.他們先是到了比爾的家里，比爾邀請馬克喝可樂，并一起看電視。那個下午過得非常愉快，他們交流看法，還時不時地開懷大笑。然后，馬克回家了。從此以后，他們繼續(xù)往來，在學校附近相見，一起吃過一兩次午餐，并一起初中畢業(yè)。后來，他們升入同一所高中，并始終保持著簡短的接觸。最后，終于盼到中學快要結束了。就在畢業(yè)前的第三周，比爾問馬克，他們是否可以談一談。

Bill reminded him of the day years ago when they had first met.“Do you ever wonder why I was carrying so many things home that day?” asked Bill.“You see, I cleaned out my locker because I didn't want to leave a mess for anyone else.I had stored away some of my mother's sleeping pills and I was going home to commit suicide.But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I realized that if I had killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow.So you see, Mark, when you picked up my books that day, you did a lot more.You saved my life.”

比爾提到了多年前他們第一次相遇的那一天。“你有沒有想過為什么那天我會帶著那么多東西回家？”比爾問道。“事實是，那天我把自己的櫥柜全部清理干凈了，因為我不想給任何人制造亂七八糟的場面。我存下了媽媽吃的很多安眠藥，本想回家自殺。但是當跟你呆在一起又說又笑的時候，我意識到如果我自殺了，我就會錯過那些愉快的時光，也就欣賞不到以后隨之而來的許多其他的美好時光了。所以，馬克，你看，那天你幫我撿書的時候，你不只是在幫我撿書，實際上還為我做了很多。你拯救了我的生命。”

Every little hello, every little smile, every helping hand saves a hurting heart.There s a miracle called Friendship that dwells in the heart.Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed.They make you smile and encourage you to succeed.They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their heart to us.Show your friends how much you care...每一句小小的問候，每一個淺淺的笑容，每一只援助之手，都會拯救一個傷痛的心靈。友誼常駐心間會鑄就奇跡，朋友確實是稀世珍寶。他們帶給你歡笑，鼓勵你成功。他們會傾聽我們的心聲，與我們分享每一個贊揚，總是與我們坦誠相待。一定要讓你的朋友知道你有多么在乎他們??

陽光的聲音

老師破天荒布置了一篇自由作文。

The teacher delivered a free writing amazingly.孩子高興極了，想：終于可以擺脫討厭的命題作文，寫寫自己心里的東西了。

The child was so happy by thinking that he can finally write about his thought in his inner heart instead of the thesis writing.他躺在柔軟的草地上，陽光暖暖地照著，想啊想，然后一躍而起，一篇很滿意，甚至是很得意的文章便躍然紙上——《陽光的聲音》。

Lying on the soft grass land with the sunshine sprinkling over his body warmly, he jumped up after thinking and composed a satisfactory article------The Sound of the Sun.孩子滿懷信心地把作文交了上去，然后陷入了無盡的期待。

The boy handed in the composition with his fulfilled confidence, and then, he met the endless waiting.作文本發(fā)下來了。

At last, the paper was returned.春暖花開的日子里，孩子竟忍不住打了一個寒戰(zhàn)。

After seeing the result, the boy was trembled in the bloomy spring days.老師在作文后面批了一個大大的“差”字。

The teacher gave him a “poor”in the last as the evaluation..老師說：“可笑！陽光怎么會有聲音呢？！以后再也不能這樣寫了，要扣分的！”

孩子覺得很委屈，也很難過。

The teacher said, “How amuse you are!How can the sun make any noise?!You are not allowed to write the composition in this way any more..The marks you get will be very low in this way.那個“差”字像一個張牙舞爪的魔鬼，時時出現(xiàn)在他的夢里。

The?poor?evaluation is like a clewing devils, which will appear in his dreams sometimes.幾年以后，老師還是老師，孩子還是學生。只不過孩子長大了一些，成了老師家長眼中公認的好孩子，再也不會想一些不著邊際的事，說一些莫名其妙的話了。

Several years passed, the teacher is still who he is, and the student is himself the same but grows older.Meanwhile, he has been regarded as a good boy who will not talk about the ill-advised things or say the strange words.一天的閱讀欣賞課，老師講解的一位著名作家的文章里有一句：我聽見了陽光的聲音。

老師滔滔不絕地分析著這句話多么的優(yōu)美，多么的富有哲理，可孩子一句也聽不進去。

But one day in an reading appreciation course, the teacher interpreted the sentence “I have heard the call of the sun” written by a famous author.His teacher spouted how graceful this sentence was, and how sensible it was, but he can hardly focus himself on even a word of it.孩子望了一眼窗外刺眼的陽光，想：陽光怎么會有聲音呢？

想到這，他冷冷地笑了。

Then, the boy faced the dazzling sunshine thinking that: how can the sun make the sound? And then, he made a smile coldly.“You are the only one who can make you happy.” We have all heard that so many times in our lives.There are times it is a pretty tough pill to swallow.In reality, the people that surround you have a huge impact on your current mood.When your children are grumpy in the morning, you find a nice pile the dog left you over night, you hit the road and the traffic won?t allow you your normal speed, then when you get to work and your co-worker called in sick...these are all things that might contribute to your overall Happiness of the day.However, moods and temporary emotions are not the same as happiness.Happiness exists when you look at the overall picture of your life and you smile, that is happiness.You know those times when you can?t wait for your children to go to bed, then later you check on the kids and you almost cry because they look exactly like angels...YOUR ANGELS, sleeping so sweetly and soundly.You can hardly remember a time of irritation with them.That is Happiness.As life progresses and changes, we realize that who we are,(what makes us, us)...that is what we are responsible for.We know that immediate gratification or irritation only pacifies or deteriorates our emotional stimuli short term.Our global view of how we see ourselves determines our state of mind.Our state of mind determines our Happiness.So, how do we take control of our emotions and find the path of Happiness? This seems to be the million dollar question.There are tons of books on or related to the subject.You could read and practice until you are completely confused.Or, we could spend the rest of our life introspectively evaluating what makes us happy.Which might take more time and energy and actually frustrate us more.How about this? What if we looked at ourselves and decided what we liked and didn?t like and set about making changes.It doesn?t have to be major alterations.Maybe you are tired of your house but can?t afford to move.Try painting the living room or buying flowers to set on the kitchen table.If you haven?t had a vacation for awhile and just can?t afford to take that cruise, go camping instead.Maybe the issues are more personal or internal.Do you get mad too easily? Learn yoga or meditation.Are you having marital problems? Visit a counselor.Are the kids having discipline issues? Determine the major issues, establish guidelines on how you are going to correct the problem and stick to it.You may be saying, ?Sure, that sounds so easy but...? Of course it sounds easy.Problems are always easier to talk about than to take the obvious actions to fix them.But, for the most part, things are as difficult or as easy as we determine them to be.Sometimes we just make things harder than necessary.If your unHappiness stems from a situation beyond your control then find other ways to compensate.If, for example, money is so tight and no apparent windfall is coming your way any time soon, find inexpensive entertainment.Backyard ballgames, picnics in the park, movie night with popcorn and snacks in your bedroom are a few alternatives to an expensive night out.If the issues are more serious and you feel powerless, that is the time to seek professional help.Otherwise, look in the mirror and be glad.If you don?t like what you see, change it.Make the solution that simple!

“你是唯一一個可以讓自己幸福的人。”我們總是聽到有人說我們還有很多的時間。

那些時間就像在吞咽一顆苦澀的藥片讓人無奈。事實上，你圍繞在你周圍的人會對你的心情會有相當大的影響。例如，早晨你的孩子很不聽話，一夜過后你的夠給你留下一堆特別的東西，你撞到墻上然后交通又限制你正常速度，當你開始工作時你的同事打電話說他身體不適等等，這些事情都將會影響你一整天的幸福感覺。

然而，心情和暫時的情感都是不能和幸福相提并論的。幸福存在于你看到你生活的整個畫面時，你面帶微笑。是的，這才是幸福。你知道的，你沒能等到你孩子去睡覺，但是當去檢查他們睡得是否安好時，你幾乎能流淚，因為他們睡得是如此的香甜，就像是天使??你的天使。你似乎不記得他們曾有讓生氣的時候了。這才是幸福。

隨著生活的變化和提高，我們開始認識到我們是誰，（是什么早就了現(xiàn)在的我們，我們?）?我們的責任是什么。我們知道一時的滿足和煩惱只是使我們使情緒得到短暫安慰或惡化。我們對我們自己的整體看法才會決定我們精神狀態(tài)，而我們的精神狀態(tài)又決定我們的幸福。

于是，我們要如何來控制我們的情緒，進而發(fā)現(xiàn)通往幸福的捷徑呢？這似乎是一個價值連城的問題。已經(jīng)有成噸重的書對這個主題進行了闡述或涉及。你可以讀讀這些書并依此付諸實踐，知道你徹底迷茫；或者，我們可以用我們余下的時間來反思和評估是什么讓我們幸福。這些可能占有我們更多的時間和精力和帶給我們更多的挫敗。

那么如果我們這樣做呢？我們如果先自我審視一番，然后決定什么是我們喜歡的，什么是我們不喜歡的，接著開始改變。沒有必要一定是大的變化。例如，可能你已經(jīng)厭倦了你現(xiàn)在的房子，但是你又沒有錢新買房搬家。那么你可以試著給你的房間刷上新的油漆，或者買一些花放到你的餐桌上。可能你沒有一個完整的長假去做長途旅行，那么你可以嘗試去露營。

這些話題可能太個人化或者內心化。你太容易發(fā)火嗎？那就學習瑜伽或者嘗試沉思吧！你有婚姻問題嗎？那就去咨詢一下婚姻顧問吧！你的孩子存在一些紀律問題嗎？那你可以找出主要問題，然后列出你打算改正這個問題的綱領并持之以恒。

你可能會說，“是的，這些聽起來很簡單，但是??”這聽起來當然簡單。談論問題總是比付諸行動去解決問題要簡單的多。然而，問題是困難的還是簡單的全憑我們解決的決心的大小。有時我們可能把問題復雜化了。

如果你不幸福的原因是來源于一種你無法控制的情形，那你可以尋找其他方法來加以彌補。譬如，如果你生活拮據(jù)并且不太有可能會突然大發(fā)橫財，那就找比較便宜的娛樂方式。比如，后院足球，公園野餐，看電影吃爆米花或者在臥室享受零食，做一些選擇來期待一次昂貴的外出。如果問題比較嚴重而你有感到無力，這時你就應該向專業(yè)人士來尋求幫助。

然而，看著鏡子中的你很快樂。如果你不喜歡你所看到的，那就改變它。解決的方法很簡單。

英語美文賞析：呼喚自由的鸚鵡

A man, a great man, a fighter for freedom was traveling in the mountains.He stayed in a caravans for the night.He was amazed that in the caravans there was a beautiful parrot in a golden cage, continually repeating “Freedom!Freedom!”.And it was such a place that when the parrot repeated the word “Freedom!” it would go on echoing in the valleys, in the mountains.一個人，一個了不起的人，一個為了自由而戰(zhàn)的斗士，正在山巒間穿行。今晚他留在一個大旅店里過夜。旅店里有一個金鳥籠，里面有一只漂亮的鸚鵡在不停地反復呼喊著“自由！自由！”，這讓他很震驚。那里是這樣的一種地方，當這只鸚鵡不斷地反復呼喊“自由！”的時候，這個詞便會在山巒間、在深谷中久久回蕩。

The man thought: “I have seen many parrots, and I have thought they must want to be free from those cages? but I have never seen such a parrot whose whole day, from the morning to the evening when he goes to sleep, is spent in calling out for freedom.” He had an idea.In the middle of the night, when the owner was fast asleep, he got up and opened the door of the cage.He whispered to the parrot, “Now get out.”

這個人想：“我看到過很多鸚鵡，也曾想過他們一定想從這些籠子里飛出去獲得自由??但是，我從沒有見過這樣的鸚鵡，從早到晚，直到入睡，一整天都在呼喊著自由。”他有了一個想法??午夜，當?shù)曛魇焖臅r候，他悄悄起身，打開了鳥籠門，小聲地對鸚鵡說：“現(xiàn)在，出去吧。”

But he was very surprised that the parrot was clinging to the bars of the cage.He said to him again and again, “Have you forgotten about freedom? Just get out!The door is open and the owner is fast asleep;nobody will ever know.You just fly into the sky;the whole sky is yours.”

但是令他吃驚的是這只鸚鵡竟抓著鳥籠的橫木不放。他對它一遍又一遍地說：“你忘了自由了嗎？快出去！門開著，店主熟睡著，沒有人會看到。你只要飛向天空，整片天空就是你的了。”

But the parrot was clinging so deeply, so hard, that the man said, “What is the matter? Are you mad?” He tried to take the parrot out with his own hands, but the parrot started pecking at him, and at the same time he was shouting, “Freedom!Freedom!” The valleys in the night echoed and re-echoed, but the man was also stubborn；he was a freedom fighter.但是鸚鵡仍然牢牢地用力抓著橫木不放，于是他說：“怎么了？你瘋了嗎？”他試圖用手把鸚鵡弄出來，但是鸚鵡卻開始啄他，同時大喊：“自由！自由！”深夜的山谷里蕩起了一聲又一聲的回音，可是這個人也一樣地頑固，誰讓他是個自由之士呢。

He pulled the parrot out and threw him into the sky;and he was very satisfied, although his hand was hurt.The parrot had attacked him as forcefully as he could, but the man was immensely satisfied that he had made a soul free.He went to sleep.他把鸚鵡拽出來，扔向空中。他很滿意，盡管他的手受傷了。雖然鸚鵡全力地攻擊他，但是他卻心滿意足，因為他使得一個靈魂自由了。他便回去繼續(xù)睡他的覺。

In the morning, as the man was waking up, he heard the parrot shouting, “Freedom!Freedom!” He thought perhaps the parrot must be sitting on a tree or on a rock.But when he came out, the parrot was sitting in the cage.The door was open.早上，他睡醒了，聽見鸚鵡正在大喊：“自由！自由！”他想也許鸚鵡正落在一棵樹上或一塊石頭上呢。但當他出來的時候，鸚鵡正在籠子里，籠門還開著。Life is Like a Cafeteria 生活就像自助餐

A friend?s grandfather came to America from Eastern Europe.After settling down at Ellis Island, He went into a cafeteria in lower Manhattan to get something to eat.He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order.Of course nobody did.Finally, a woman with a tray full of food sat down opposite him and informed him how a cafeteria worked.“Start out at that end,” she said.“Just go along the line and pick out what you want.At the other end they?ll tell you how much you have to pay.” “I soon learned that?s how everything works in America,” the grandfather told a friend.“Life?s a cafeteria here.You can get anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price.You can even get success, but you?ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you.You have to get up and get it yourself.”

一個朋友的祖父從東歐到美國來。在埃利斯島安頓下來后, 他去曼哈頓一家抵擋的自助餐廳吃飯.他在一張空桌子邊坐下，等待侍者拿來菜單。沒有人來招呼他.最后，一位女士拿著滿滿一托盤食物走過來坐在他對面, 并告訴他自助餐廳怎樣進餐的。她說：“著手去做吧，去要你想要的東西，在餐廳的另外一端會有人告訴你該付多少錢。” 他對一個朋友說：“接著我很快了解到這就是美國人的工作方式”.生活就像自助餐, 你可以去要你想要的任何東西, 只要你能付得起他們的價格.你也可以想要成功, 但是如果你什么都不做等著別人能把它送到你身邊的話是永遠都不可能得到的.你必須勤勞，必須自己去追求它。

第五篇：初中英語美文欣賞

Don't judge a life by one difficult season 不要用一段艱難的時光來判定人生。

There was a man who had four sons.He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly.So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in the summer, and the youngest son in the fall.從前有一個人,他有四個兒子。他希望兒子們能學會不急于對事物下結論,于是依次派四個兒子出去,讓他們去遠方看一棵梨樹。就這樣,大兒子冬天前往,二兒子春天啟程,三兒子夏天出發(fā),而小兒子則是在秋天動身的。

人生如樹,也有春、夏、秋、冬四季之分。樹之四季皆有不同,更何況人之四季呢?所以凡事不要急于定論。

When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.等兒子們都去過回來之后,這位父親把他們叫到一起,讓他們描述各自的所見。The second son said noand the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life-can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.他告訴他們:不應僅憑一個季節(jié)來判斷一棵樹,一段時間來看一個人;最后,到所有的季節(jié)都已終結時,才能衡量一個人的本質--以及他生命中的快樂、喜悅和愛。

If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.如果你在寒冬時放棄,你將失去春之希望,夏之燦爛,秋之收獲。所以,不要讓一時的痛苦毀棄你所有其他的快樂。
