On the new year's day, I met a long lost sister in school near school.I met my sister in student work.She gave me a lot of advice and help when I first entered school, and I have always been grateful to her.The accounting profession of Xue Jie Xue, graduated this year.If she hadn't seen me greeting me first, two of me must have missed it.I was still like that for a year, so she could recognize me at a glance.But the school sister changed greatly, the most obvious is to cut off the University for four years of long hair, and changed a well-trained hair and short hair.The old spectacles were not worn, but they did not know to wear stealth or to do the operation...Two of us found a coffee shop and chatted, and I laughed at my sister's road to the female elite in the workplace.Do not know why, though far more beautiful and more obvious temperament, more life experience, but I felt that her face was a weariness.Through the window of the coffee shop, the school sister saw that the restaurant on the opposite side of the Yellow braised chicken was closed in the daytime.It was obviously surprised.I explained, “that's not.The boss has been transferring the shop recently, and the other day he was looking at it with the intent.” My sister's expression is somewhat sentimental: “I like the braised chicken of this family most of the time, almost once a week, now...”

I don't know how to say, people will always be nostalgic at the appropriate time, so I hope that after many years of time now, has always maintained the original appearance, keep engraved in my heart.But when time goes on, a lot of things will change.Even this change will make a long silent runner feel very sad.I know that she is now an intern in an accounting firm, and ask her whether she can work well, whether she is ready to stay there, whether she works very hard every day and whether she is being bullied by others.In a word, I asked myself for the shallow cognition of my workplace.She laughed at me: “you suddenly ask so much, let me answer which good.How to say, a good job, not too much competition, because a firm began to tell us a few new interns no idea, so we just recently, practice and practice.After all, the office is quite famous in the industry.After the end of the internship, it has enriched the work experience and is quite helpful for us.We drank coffee and then said: ”you know what is the most let me out of the office, get to work at half past eight every morning, take charge of the predecessors to me, told me to come at ten does not matter, anyway, will not stay here, but you know I have very high standards for myself will certainly go on time.Therefore, I am still from the firm near relatively cheap rented house.Interns do not pay, working meals to pay their own money, so I am now living very hard to learn sister.The school sister intentionally made a bitter tone to ease the atmosphere, but I really could realize that she was not easy.Getting up early every day, but no longer can be as neat and neat as before, dressing up, eating roadside stalls, crowded buses, and busy day by day, are all consuming the energy of this tiny girl.I think that people who have experienced these things have a grumbling in their heart, and the resentment is not a matter of one person, but in the deepest heart.But from meeting to separating, my sister didn't complain to me about the difficulty of life and the danger of society.She taught me to enjoy the moment just in time in university must also make adequate preparations for the day after.Walking through the braised chicken restaurant on foot, the school sister looked at the heavy shackles on the glass door, reached out and touched it, and sighed.When I looked down, my sister cried, and I followed her eyes, and there was a white unknown flower on the fracture of the cement floor tile in front of the glass door.This discovery let the school sister suddenly become full of vitality, it is not necessary to pull me in front of a small shop self portraits, saying that it is to leave a memorial...There is a question that many netizens think about: how do you refute the reality that this society is like this? The most popular reply is: what you are and what your world is like.In my opinion, this reply is not chicken soup at all.It is this, you want to make the world a better place, only to make yourself better.This is good, a lot of the time, people can feel the danger and misery, confusion and yibingding mouth uncertain, and you can see a rise in front of flowers everywhere, waiting for you.有關(guān)大學(xué)英語美文摘抄2

The time is short, but still passed away;although the spring and Autumn period is long, it is also in a hurry.In this long and short time, we should make full use of it, not to get lost in it.Life is a smoke-free war that life has launched for us.However, the battlefield is a thick white mist, there is no smoke, but had a Olga fog, there is no warriors, but empty lonely and lonely.There is no direction, no marks, no commanders, some only their own perseverance, and have their own strength.At that time, when I was just studying, I had no idea, I was very confused about my future life, I couldn't speak my favorite things and I couldn't talk about the job I wanted.The family asked, my life seemed to be in the mist, fog is overlapped around the side, no direction, no roads, no light, there is only a hazy mist, just bleak wind, just silent lonely and helpless, but more confused.Such a life, no one can bring me light, and no one can break the fog for me to illuminate the direction.If I want to be lost, I must rely on myself to rush out of the fog and rush to the top of life.Otherwise, it will always be immersed in the fog and can't escape.I wandered for a long time in this hazy fog, and I had been confused for a few years, and I could not give up, but I had no direction.I tried hard to find out all kinds of ideals to rush out of the fog, but life had brought me a lot of jokes and was broken by reality.I have hoped countless times in the night sky above my forehead to have a blinking star to light up for me, and a shining star can break it.How I wish I could have a goal, a yearning to rush out of the fog and change my life, but I was surrounded by a cruel reality.Don't let confusion lose myself.It's my firm belief that I can do it without knowing it.With it, I saw the light outside the fog.In the days to come, although my words are not perfect, but I see the hope, they will go for one time.People find their ideal in the confusion, the real number is not easy.Wish us to be strong on the road of our own life, not to be lost and lost in the direction of self.

【篇一】大學(xué)英語美文摘抄

The world has so many lessons to teach you.I consider the world, this Earth, to be like a school and our life the classrooms.And sometimes here in this Planet Earth school the lessons often come dressed up as detours or roadblocks.And sometimes as full-blown crises.And the secret I've learned to getting ahead is being open to the lessons, lessons from the grandest university of all, that is, the universe itself.It's being able to walk through life eager and open to self-improvement and that which is going to best help you evolve, because that's really why we're here, to evolve as human beings.To grow into more of ourselves, always moving to the next level of understanding, the next level of compassion and growth.這個(gè)世界將教會你們很多。我認(rèn)為這個(gè)世界，這個(gè)地球，就像一所學(xué)校，而我們的人生就像是教室。在世界這所大學(xué)里，有些課程會是人生的彎路或障礙，有些課程則充滿危機(jī)。而我所學(xué)到的應(yīng)對這一切的私、訣就是：勇于面對一切挫折與危機(jī)，世界本身就是世上最好的大學(xué)。在人生的旅途中，妥對生活充滿激情，并不斷提高自我，這就是進(jìn)化為人類并存在于世的意義。不斷提升自我，去追求人生的更高境界，去追求更高級別的憐憫和自我提高。

Walk clean around the hill

NOW THAT I can look back across the years from the so-called vantage point of experience in two World Wars,travel throughout a large part of the world, and contact with many of the outstanding personalities of our time,it gives me a great deal of real reassurance each day to know that way down deep I learned some fundamental values when I was a boy in a small town in Nebraska.I have found one thing to be so very trueit has been a way of life for me.I mean not only loyalty to my friends and family, but to the honest values on which our country was founded.And to me, this guidepost of loyalty of necessity means loyalty to one's own self.When I was growing up, I rebelled against so many things, and fought against so many of the basic ideas of lifewhether I am in London, Paris, Rome,Cairo,Now York,Hollwood or Wahoo,Nebraska-are always the same.I am grateful for those old-fashioned virtues that I learned as a boy in Nebraska.And I hope I will have enough humility always to be thankful I was born in a country that give me this chance at life.橫看成嶺側(cè)成峰

達(dá)里爾.柴納克

我經(jīng)歷了兩次世界大戰(zhàn)，環(huán)游了世界大部分的地方，接觸過很多當(dāng)代的名人。如今，回想起這些豐富的閱歷，我深感欣慰，因?yàn)樗鼈兛隙宋覂簳r(shí)在內(nèi)布拉斯加州一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)上學(xué)到的那些基本價(jià)值觀。

我發(fā)現(xiàn)有一點(diǎn)極為正確——兒時(shí)學(xué)到的很多美德在今天依然重要。歲月流逝，我和朋友們的想法與觀點(diǎn)自然都有所變化，然而這不過是個(gè)人看待事物的方式改變了。就好比一個(gè)小男孩站在內(nèi)布拉斯加平原上看山，山?jīng)]有變，只是隨著男孩的長大，他看山的角度發(fā)生了變化。

從此，為了從不同的角度看山，我總會試著圍繞發(fā)現(xiàn)的每一座山走上整一圈。我認(rèn)為，這就是誠實(shí)正直之人與憤世嫉俗者之間的區(qū)別。從不同角度看待事物，你就能更輕松地抓住生活的精髓;而當(dāng)你僅從一個(gè)角度片面地觀察世界時(shí)，就很可能會變得憤世嫉俗。

從我在內(nèi)布拉斯加州瓦胡鎮(zhèn)的童年時(shí)代起，直到今天，忠誠與仁愛這兩種最基本的美德始終為我的生活帶來莫大的慰籍。孩提時(shí)，我還學(xué)到了其他的一些基本準(zhǔn)則，但最重要的還是這兩條。

在我看來，忠誠不只是一個(gè)簡單的詞，而是一種生活方式。我所指的并不只是忠于家庭與朋友，還要忠于我們建國的基礎(chǔ)，即誠實(shí)正直的價(jià)值觀。我認(rèn)為，忠誠這一必需的原則也意味著對我們內(nèi)在自我的忠誠。

成長過程中，我曾幾度叛逆，與生活中的很多基本觀念背道而馳。但是，多次叛逆后，我想象著自己圍繞內(nèi)布拉斯加平原的那座山走了整整一圈，終于明白這些美德的確經(jīng)得起時(shí)間的考驗(yàn)。

在逆境中給予我莫大安慰的另一個(gè)原則是仁愛。這是我們必須學(xué)習(xí)的美德。生活中的我很幸運(yùn)，因?yàn)槲夷軌驑飞坪檬Ｐ猩普卟粦?yīng)祈求回報(bào)，因?yàn)槲覀儚男猩浦兴玫降臐M足感便是最好的報(bào)答。

行善，必須真心誠意。否則，任何形式的給予皆是對生命本身極大的欺騙。

仁愛與忠誠深深感動(dòng)著我的生命，為我生活的每一天帶來極大的滿足。每天臨睡前，忠誠這一原則都會提醒我反省自己一天的行為，確保當(dāng)日的所作所為沒有為他人帶來任何故意的傷害。

每天臨睡前，我都會努力為自己對他人造成的傷害予以彌補(bǔ)。這無疑是種自私的行為，因?yàn)橹挥羞@樣，每夜我才不會輾轉(zhuǎn)難眠。

橫看成嶺側(cè)成峰，人生亦是如此。無論是在倫敦、巴黎、羅馬、開羅、紐約、好菜塢還是內(nèi)布拉斯加的瓦胡鎮(zhèn)，我所看到的美德始終不變。

感謝兒時(shí)在內(nèi)布拉斯加學(xué)到的那些傳統(tǒng)美德。我希望，我能永遠(yuǎn)對我所出生的這個(gè)國家滿懷謙恭、心存感激，因?yàn)樗o予了我生存的機(jī)會。

第三篇：大學(xué)英語美文摘抄片段

學(xué)習(xí)英語除課本知識，還要對課外知識進(jìn)行學(xué)習(xí)，下面是大學(xué)英語美文摘抄，歡迎參考閱讀！

英語美文摘抄

（一）When Love Beckons You

When love beckons to you, follow him, though his ways are hard and steep.And when his wings enfold you, yield to him, though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.And when he speaks to you, believe in him, though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you.Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to our roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.But if, in your fear, you would seek only love’s peace and love’s pleasure, then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love’s threshing-floor, into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears.Love gives naught but it self and takes naught but from itself.Love possesses not, nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself.But if you love and must have desires, let these be your desires:

To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.To know the pain of too much tenderness.To be wounded by your own understanding of love;

And to bleed willingly and joyfully.To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;

To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;

To return home at eventide with gratitude;

And then to sleep with a payer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.愛召喚

當(dāng)愛召喚你時(shí)，請追隨她，盡管愛道路艱難險(xiǎn)峻。當(dāng)愛羽翼擁抱你時(shí)，請順從她，盡管隱藏在其羽翼之下劍可能會傷到你。當(dāng)愛向你訴說時(shí)，請相信她，盡管她聲音可能打破你夢想，就如同北風(fēng)吹落花園里所有花瓣。

愛會給你戴上桂冠，也會折磨你。愛會助你成長，也會給你修枝。愛會上升到枝頭，撫愛你在陽光下顫動(dòng)力嫩枝，也會下潛至根部，撼動(dòng)力你緊抓泥土根基。

但是，如果你在恐懼之中只想尋求愛平和與快樂，那你就最好掩蓋真實(shí)自我，避開愛考驗(yàn)，進(jìn)入不分季節(jié)世界，在那里你將歡笑，但并非開懷大笑，你將哭泣，但并非盡情地哭。愛只將自己付出，也只得到自己。愛一無所有，也不會為誰所有，因?yàn)閻郾旧砭鸵炎宰恪?/p>

愛除實(shí)現(xiàn)自我別無他求。但是如果你愛而又不得不有所求，那就請期望：

將自己融化并像奔流溪水一般向夜晚吟唱自己優(yōu)美曲調(diào)。

明過多溫柔所帶來苦痛。

被自己對愛理解所傷害；

并情愿快樂地悲傷。

在黎明帶著輕快心醒來并感謝又一個(gè)有家日子；

在黃昏懷著感恩之心回家；

然后為內(nèi)心所愛之人祈禱，吟唱贊美之歌，并帶著禱告和歌聲入眠。

英語美文摘抄

（二）Be Happy!

“The days that make us happy make us wise.”----John Masefield

when I first read this line by England’s Poet Laureate, it startled me.What did Masefield mean? Without thinking about it much, I had always assumed that the opposite was true.But his sober assurance was arresting.I could not forget it.Finally, I seemed to grasp his meaning and realized that here was a profound observation.The wisdom that happiness makes possible lies in clear perception, not fogged by anxiety nor dimmed by despair and boredom, and without the blind spots caused by fear.Active happiness---not mere satisfaction or contentment---often comes suddenly, like an April shower or the unfolding of a bud.Then you discover what kind of wisdom has accompanied it.The grass is greener;bird songs are sweeter;the shortcomings of your friends are more understandable and more forgivable.Happiness is like a pair of eyeglasses correcting your spiritual vision.Nor are the insights of happiness limited to what is near around you.Unhappy, with your thoughts turned in upon your emotional woes, your vision is cut short as though by a wall.Happy, the wall crumbles.The long vista is there for the seeing.The ground at your feet, the world about you----people, thoughts, emotions, pressures---are now fitted into the larger scene.Everything assumes a fairer proportion.And here is the beginning of wisdom.“快樂日子使人睿智。”

——約翰·梅斯菲爾德

第一次讀到英國桂冠詩人梅斯菲爾德這行詩時(shí)，我感到十分震驚。他想表達(dá)什么意思？我以前從未對此仔細(xì)考慮，總是認(rèn)定這行詩反過來才正確。但他冷靜而又胸有成竹表達(dá)引起我注意，令我無法忘懷。

終于，我似乎領(lǐng)會他意思，并意識到這行詩意義深遠(yuǎn)。快樂帶來睿智存在于敏銳洞察力之間，不會因憂慮而含混迷惑，也不會因絕望和厭倦而黯然模糊，更不會因恐懼而造成盲點(diǎn)。

積極快樂 – 并非單純滿意或知足 – 通常不期而至，就像四月里突然下起春雨，或是花蕾突然綻放。然后，你就會發(fā)覺與快樂結(jié)伴而來究竟是何種智慧。草地更為青翠，鳥吟更為甜美，朋友缺點(diǎn)也變得更能讓人理解，寬容。快樂就像是一副眼鏡，可以矯正你精神視力。

快樂視野并不僅限于你周圍事物。當(dāng)你不快樂時(shí)，你思維陷入情感上悲哀，你眼界就像是被一道墻給阻隔，而當(dāng)你快樂時(shí)，這道墻就會砰然倒塌。

你眼界變得更為寬廣。你腳下大地，你身邊世界，包括人，思想，情感和壓力，現(xiàn)在都融入更為廣闊景象之中，其間每件事物 比例都更加合理。而這就是睿智起始。

英語美文摘抄

（三）The Goodness of Life

Though there is much to be concerned about, there is far, far more for which to be thankful.Though life’s goodness can at times be overshadowed, it is never outweighed.For every single act that is senselessly destructive, there are thousands more small, quiet acts of love, kindness and compassion.For every person who seeks to hurt, there are many, many more who devote their lives to helping and to healing.There is goodness to life that cannot be denied.In the most magnificent vistas and in the smallest details, look closely, for that goodness always comes shining through.There si no limit to the goodness of life.It grows more abundant with each new encounter.The more you experience and appreciate the goodness of life, the more there is to be lived.Even when the cold winds blow and the world seems to be cov ered in foggy shadows, the goodness of life lives on.Open your eyes, open your heart, and you will see that goodness is everywhere.Though the goodness of life seems at times to suffer setbacks, it always endures.For in the darkest moment it becomes vividly clear that life is a priceless treasure.And so the goodness of life is made even stronger by the very things that would oppose it.Time and time again when you feared it was gone forever you found that the goodness of life was really only a moment away.Around the next corner, inside every moment, the goodness of life is there to surprise and delight you.Take a moment to let the goodness of life touch your spirit and calm your thoughts.Then, share your good fortune with another.For the goodness of life grows more and more magnificent each time it is given away.Though the problems constantly scream for attention and the conflicts appear to rage ever stronger, the goodness of life grows stronger still, quietly, peacefully, with more purpose and meaning than ever before.生命美好

盡管有很多事讓人憂慮，但相比而言，值得感激事要多得多。盡管生命美好有時(shí)被蒙上陰影，但它卻永遠(yuǎn)不會被埋沒。

相對于每一個(gè)無謂破壞行為而言，都有更多數(shù)以千計(jì)更為微小，包含著愛，友善和同情舉動(dòng)靜靜地上演著。相對于每一個(gè)試圖傷害他人人而言，都有更多人致力于幫助他人，治愈他人創(chuàng)傷。

生命美好不能否認(rèn)。

在最為壯觀前景和最為瑣碎細(xì)節(jié)中，()請仔細(xì)觀察，因?yàn)槊篮檬挛锟偸巧l(fā)著耀眼光芒閃亮登場。

生命美好沒有界限。每一次相遇都會使這美好變得越發(fā)豐富。你經(jīng)歷得越多，越能欣賞生命美好，生命中美好就會變得越多。

即使當(dāng)寒風(fēng)襲來，整個(gè)世界似乎被霧氣掩蓋之時(shí)，生命美好仍會存在。睜開雙眼，打開心扉，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)這美好無處不在。

盡管生命美好有時(shí)似乎遭受挫折，但它總會挺過來。因?yàn)椋谧詈诎禃r(shí)刻，有一點(diǎn)變得格外清楚，那就是，生命是無價(jià)財(cái)富。因此，下正是與生命美好相對立事物使其越發(fā)強(qiáng)大。

無數(shù)次地，當(dāng)你擔(dān)心這美好已經(jīng)遠(yuǎn)離之時(shí)，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)生命美好其實(shí)只與你相隔須臾。它就在下一角落，存在于每個(gè)時(shí)刻之間，等著給你驚喜。

花些時(shí)間讓生命美好感動(dòng)自己靈魂，放松自己思緒。然后，把你幸運(yùn)與他人分享。因?yàn)樯篮脮诿看谓o予之間變得越來越壯觀。

盡管總是有問題讓你去關(guān)注，沖突也似乎愈演愈烈，但生命美好卻總是靜靜地，平和地，帶著比以往更強(qiáng)意志和更多價(jià)值變得更加強(qiáng)大。

第四篇：英語美文摘抄

1.Thrift

[導(dǎo)讀]本文論述了節(jié)儉這一美德的重要。文章圍繞論點(diǎn)展開，層次分明。（選取任意兩個(gè)段落背誦）

Thrift is the foundation of all greatness.It is applied not only to money matters, but to everything else in life—the wise use of one's time, ability, and energy.In short, thrift is the scientific management of one's money, of one's time, of one's affairs, and of one's self.Thrift is the best word for us.It makes fortune.It uplifts character.It improves the quality of the individual.The exercise of thrift has a very healthful reaction upon all the other faculties.The habit of thrift denotes self-control.It is a proof that a man is not a hopeless victim of his weakness.It is a proof that he is the master of himself as well as of his finances.Thrift is an educator.A thrifty man thinks and plans.He has a program.He has a certain amount of independence.If you have cultivated thrift, it means that you have the ability to control your desires and that you are developing some of the grandest human qualities—self-reliance, independence, prudence, and foresight.We know that all great nations are founded on thrift.The ancient Roman Empire degenerated and came to an end when it ceased to be thrifty.Yet thrift does not require superior courage.It needs no fervent resolution, but only a little patient self-denial.And BEGIN is its device!

Remember, my son, you have to work.Whether you handle a pick or a pen, a wheel-barrow or a set of books, digging ditches or editing a paper, ringing an

auction bell or writing funny things, you must work.If you look around you will see the men who are the most able to live the rest of their days without work are the men who work the hardest.Don't be afraid of killing yourself with overwork.It is beyond your power to do that on the sunny side of thirty.They die sometimes, but it is because they quit work at six in the evening, and do not go home until two in the morning.It’s the interval that kills, my son.The work gives you an appetite for your meals;it lends solidity to your slumbers, it gives you a perfect and grateful appreciation of a holiday.There are young men who do not work, but the world is not proud of them.It does not know their names, even it simply speaks of them as “old So-and-So’s boy”.Nobody likes them;the great, busy world doesn’t know that they are there.So find out what you want to be and do, and take off your coat and make a dust in the world.The busier you are, the less harm you will be apt to get into, the sweeter will be your sleep, the brighter and happier your holidays, and the better satisfied will the world be with you.[注釋]

3.Books（選擇任意兩段背誦）

[導(dǎo)讀]塞繆爾·斯邁爾斯（Samuel Smiles）英國作家，以道德教誨的作品“自助”(Self-Help，1859)最為有名。

A man may usually be known by the books he reads, as well as by the company

for there is a companionship of books as well as of men;and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.A good book may be among the best of friends.It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change.It is the most patient and cheerful of companions.It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress.It always receives us with the same kindness;amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book—just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third.There is an old proverb, “Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this: “Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union.Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author.They live in him together, and he in them.A good book is often the best urn of a life, enshrining the best thoughts of which that life was capable;for the world of a man's life is, for the most part, but the world of his thoughts.Thus the best books are treasuries of good words and golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our abiding companions and comforters.“They are never alone,” said Sir Philip Sidney, “that are accompanied by noble thoughts.” The good and true thought may in time of temptation be as an angel of mercy purifying and guarding the soul.It also enshrines the germs of action, for good words almost invariably inspire to good works.company: 陪伴 adversity: 不幸, 逆境

distress: 悲痛, 窮困

console : vt.安慰

affinity: 吸引力, 親合力

[參考譯文] 書為友

觀其友而知其人，同樣，察一個(gè)人讀些什么書就可知他的為人，只因書與人一樣，也能做人之友。無論是書還是人，我們都應(yīng)該擇其最佳者為友。

一本好書可以成為人的摯友，古往今來，恒久不變。所有朋友中，書本最為耐心而又令人愉悅。我們身處逆境灰心沮喪時(shí)，書本并不變臉拋棄我們，始終如一，友愛接納。我們年輕時(shí)，書本給我們以歡娛和陶冶；我們老邁時(shí)，又予我們以慰藉和鼓勵(lì)。

黑茲利特曾說：“書香輕拂沁心靈，詩行輕滑滲血液。青春時(shí)所讀之書，垂暮時(shí)依然會回想，仿佛就在身邊發(fā)生。書籍價(jià)廉物美，我們就在書香中呼吸。”

一本好書往往就是作者的人生結(jié)晶，里面蘊(yùn)藏著他窮其一生的求索成果。因?yàn)槿艘簧氖澜绱蠖嗑褪瞧渌枷氲氖澜纾识顑?yōu)秀的書籍也就是至理名言和輝煌思想的富藏。這些

思想若能銘記在心，就成為我們永久的朋友和永恒的慰藉。菲利普·悉尼爵士說得好：“與高尚思想為伴的人永不寂寞。”在我們受誘惑時(shí)，美好純真的思想如同仁慈的天使，凈化衛(wèi)護(hù)著我們的靈魂，并蘊(yùn)含著我們行動(dòng)的萌芽，因?yàn)榻鹩窳佳钥偰芗?lì)我們美好的行為。

4.Jane Eyre

[導(dǎo)讀]夏洛蒂·勃朗特(Charlotte Bronte)的《簡愛》通過簡·愛的自述，描繪的是一個(gè)出身貧苦家庭，長相平凡，無依無靠的女家庭教師的曲折遭遇。簡，成為純潔、熱情、坦率、愛好真理，敢于追求幸福的女性的象征，因而形象鮮明。作品成功之處還在于作者在對人性的描述中，我們隱約看到了自己，卑劣或美麗的人性，而覺得心有戚戚焉。

‘I tell you I must go!’ I retorted, roused to something like passion.‘Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?I have as much soul as you,it is my spirit that addresses your spirit;just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal,ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy.I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness--that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold

unfathomable lifeless abyss.I have sought it finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined.This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what--at last--I have found.With equal passion I have sought knowledge.I have wished to understand the hearts of men.I have wished to know why the stars shine.And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux.A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens.But always pity brought me back to earth.Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart.Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be.I long to alleviate this evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.This has been my life.I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.三種單純而又異常強(qiáng)烈的情感控制著我的生活：對愛的渴望，對知識的渴求，還有因人類遭受痛苦而產(chǎn)生的難以忍受的憐憫。這三種情感，有如三股勁風(fēng)，卷著我到處飄零，倏忽無定，飛越深深的苦海，瀕臨絕望的邊緣。

我尋求愛，首先是因?yàn)閻勰茏屓烁械綗o比幸福——這幸福的感覺如此強(qiáng)烈，我恨不得拿我的余生去換取幾個(gè)小時(shí)的幸福感。我尋求愛的第二個(gè)原因是，愛能解除孤寂感——一旦陷入可怕的孤寂之中，靈魂顫抖著從世界的邊緣上窺視過去，卻只見那又寒又冷、深不可測、毫無生氣的深淵。我尋求愛的最后一個(gè)原因是，在愛的歡聚中，我看到圣者和詩人們在想象中所預(yù)見的天堂景象的神秘縮影。這就是我的追求，盡管對人生而言這好象有點(diǎn)兒可望不可及，但我最終還是如愿以償了。

我以絲毫不減的熱情尋求知識。我發(fā)愿要了解人心。我發(fā)愿去探究群星閃耀的秘密。我也曾努力理解畢達(dá)哥拉斯賦予數(shù)的力量，在他那里，數(shù)主宰了萬物的流變。結(jié)果我獲得了一點(diǎn)，而不是很多的知識。

愛和知識盡可能的將我引向高高的天空。但是憐憫又往往把我拽回大地。痛哭的回聲在我心中回蕩不已。饑荒中的兒童，被統(tǒng)治者蹂躪的受害者，成為子女累贅并被他們嫌棄的無助的老人，充滿孤寂、貧困和痛苦的世界，這諸多苦難成為對人類生活理想的諷刺。我渴望減輕邪惡導(dǎo)致的痛苦，但是我無能為力，就連我自己也難免其苦。

這就是我的生活。我發(fā)現(xiàn)這樣活著很有意義，倘若機(jī)會容許，我會欣然回到世上再活一次。

9.The Four Freedoms 富蘭克林

In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.The first is freedom of speech and expression―everywhere in the world.The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way―everywhere in the world.The third is freedom from want―which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peace time life for its inhabitants―everywhere in the world.The forth is freedom from fear which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor--anywhere in the world.我們努力保證未來的歲月能夠安定，我們期待著將來有一個(gè)建立在四項(xiàng)人類基本自由基礎(chǔ)之上的世界

第一是在世界的一切地方，一切人都有言論與表達(dá)意見的自由。

第二是在世界的一切地方，一切人都有自由以自己的方式崇拜上帝。

第三是免于匱乏的自由。從世界范圍的意義上說就是在經(jīng)濟(jì)上達(dá)到諒解，保證世界的一切地方，每一個(gè)國家的居民都能夠過一種健康的和平生活。

第四是免于恐懼的自由。從世界范圍的意義上說就是進(jìn)行世界性的徹底裁軍，使世界上的一切地方，沒有任何一個(gè)國家有能力向任何鄰國發(fā)起侵略行動(dòng)。

10.Youth

by Samuel Ullman(選擇任意兩段背誦)

Youth is not just a stage 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, a quality of imagination, a vigor of the emotions.It is the freshness of the deep spring of life.Youth means the predominance of courage over timidity, of adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by living 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, doubt, self-distrust, fear and despair---these bow the head and turn the growing spirit back to dust.Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the love of wonder, the sweet amazement of the stars and the star like things, the undoubted challenge of events, the unfailing childlike appetite for what-next and the joy of the game of living.You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt, as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear, as young as your hope, as old as your despair.青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志、宏偉的想象、熾熱的感情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，進(jìn)去壓倒茍安，如此銳氣，二十后生有之，六旬男子則更多見。年年有加，并非垂老；理想丟棄，方墮暮年。

歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹唐必至靈魂。煩憂、惶恐、喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。

無論年屆花甲，抑或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一臺天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號，你就青春永駐，風(fēng)華常存。

11.Of Studies

by Francis Bacon 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 pruning by study;and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience.讀書足以怡情，足以傅彩，足以長才。其怡情也，最見于獨(dú)處幽居之時(shí)；其傅彩也，最見于高談闊論之中；其長才也，最見于處世判事之際。練達(dá)之士雖能分別處理細(xì)事或一一判別枝節(jié)，然縱觀統(tǒng)籌，全局策劃，則舍好學(xué)深思者莫屬。讀書費(fèi)時(shí)過多易惰，文采藻飾太盛則矯，全憑條文斷事乃學(xué)究故態(tài)。讀書補(bǔ)天然之不足，經(jīng)驗(yàn)又補(bǔ)讀書之不足，蓋天生才干猶如自然花草，讀書然后知如何修剪移接，而書中所示，如不以經(jīng)驗(yàn)范之，則又大而無當(dāng)。(王佐良譯)

12.The Joy of Life

Wise men of ancient times and successful men of today have told us that labor is sweet.Its reward is not material gain but what one becomes by it.Work does much more for us than just giving us a living.The real joys of life come from doing something and doing it well.All of us hope for success, but it is illusive and hard to keep.It nearly always slips away from one like sand through the fingers, like water through a leaky pail, unless it is held tight by hard work, day by day, night by night, year in year out.Everyone who fears failure should work harder and harder with a faithful heart as long as he lasts.13.True Nobility

by Ernest Hemingway

(選取任意兩段背誦)In a calm sea every man is a pilot.But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life at all.Take the lot of the happiest----it is a tangled yarn.Bereavements and blessings, one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns.Even death itself makes life more loving.Men come closest to their true selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and loss.In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without.In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance.There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.在平靜的海平面上，每個(gè)人都可以成為領(lǐng)航員。

但如果只有陽光而沒有陰影，只有歡樂而沒有痛苦，那就不是完整的人生。就拿最幸福的人來說吧——他的幸福是一團(tuán)糾結(jié)的紗線。痛苦和幸福輪番而至，讓我們悲喜交集，甚至死亡都讓人生更為可愛。人們在生命的嚴(yán)肅深刻，在悲傷與喪親的陰影下，才最接近真實(shí)的自我。

在生活和事業(yè)的各個(gè)方面，才智的功能遠(yuǎn)不如性格，頭腦的功能遠(yuǎn)不如心性，天分遠(yuǎn)不

如自制力、毅力與教養(yǎng)。

我始終認(rèn)為內(nèi)心開始過嚴(yán)肅生活的人，他外在的生活會開始變得更為簡樸。在一個(gè)奢侈浪費(fèi)的年代，但愿我能讓世人了解：人類真正的需求是多么的稀少。

不重蹈覆轍才是真正的醒悟。比別人優(yōu)秀并無任何高貴之處，真正的高貴在于超越從前的自我。

14.I have a dream（節(jié)選，選取任意三小段背誦）

I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident;that all men are created equal.”

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood.I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.I have a dream today.I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor's lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.我要對你們說，朋友們，盡管眼前存在著困難挫折，我仍然有一個(gè)夢想。它是深深扎根于 “美國夢”的一個(gè)夢想。

我有一個(gè)夢想：總有一天，這個(gè)國家將站起來，實(shí)踐民族信條的真諦：“我們認(rèn)為這些真理是不言而喻的:人人生而平等。”

我有一個(gè)夢想：總有一天，在佐治亞州的紅土山陵上，昔日奴隸的孩子和昔日奴隸主的孩子，能夠情同手足地同坐一堂。

我有一個(gè)夢想：總有一天，即使在密西西比州——這個(gè)遭受不公和壓迫烈焰煎熬的沙漠州能夠改造成一個(gè)自由公正的綠洲。

我有一個(gè)夢想：，我的四個(gè)孩子總有一天能夠生活在評判他們時(shí)不看膚色而看內(nèi)在品質(zhì)的國家里。我今天有一個(gè)夢想。

我有一個(gè)夢想：總有一天亞拉巴馬州，它的州長目前口口聲聲是干預(yù)和廢除，能夠變成這樣一個(gè)局面：黑人男孩和女孩，能夠和白人的男孩和女孩攜手同行，如同兄弟姐妹。我

今天有這么一個(gè)夢想!15.City

The city as a center where ,any day in any year, there may be a fresh encounter with a new talents, a keen mind or a gifted specialist---this is essential to the life of a country.To play this role in our lives a city must have a soul---a university, a great art or music school, a cathedral or a great mosque or temple, a great laboratory or scientific center, as well as the libraries and museums and galleries that bring past and present together, a city must be a place where groups of women and men are seeking and developing the highest things they know.By Margaret Mead: World Enough 城市

城市是個(gè)中心，任何一年的任何一天，都可能在此邂逅初出茅廬的天才，敏捷的頭腦，或是有天賦的專家―――這是一個(gè)國家的生活必不可少的。在我們的生活中，要起到這個(gè)作用，一個(gè)城市必須擁有一個(gè)靈魂——一所大學(xué)，一所偉大的藝術(shù)或音樂學(xué)校，一座大教堂或清真寺或廟宇，一個(gè)大型實(shí)驗(yàn)室或科學(xué)中心，以及圖書館和博物館還有美術(shù)館，這些地方能把過去與現(xiàn)在萃集一處。三五成群的女士和男人都在探求和推進(jìn)他們懂得是至高無上的事物，一個(gè)城市必須是這樣一個(gè)所在。

瑪格麗特 米德： 塵世

第五篇：英語美文摘抄

1、Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves.However, more often than not, once you arrive “ there” you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your “ there” vision to yet another point in the future.By always chasing after another “there,” you are never really appreciating what you already have right “here.” It is important for human beings to keep soberminded about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand.On one hand, your life is enhanced by your dreams and aspirations.On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now.By learning the lessons of gratitude and abundance, you can bring yourself closer to fulfilling the challenge of living in the present.許多人都相信，一旦他們達(dá)到了自己所設(shè)定的某個(gè)特定目標(biāo)，他們就會開心、快樂。然而事實(shí)往往是，當(dāng)你到達(dá)彼岸時(shí)，你還是不知足、不滿意，而且又有了新的彼岸--新的幻想和憧憬。由于你總是疲于追逐一個(gè)又一個(gè)的彼岸，你從未真正欣賞、珍惜你已經(jīng)擁有的一切。不安于現(xiàn)狀的欲望人皆有之，由來已久，但重要的是要對它保持清醒的頭腦。一方面，你的生活因?yàn)閴粝牒涂释泳省Ａ硪环矫妫@些欲望又使你越來越不懂得珍惜和享受現(xiàn)在擁有的生活。假如你能懂得感恩，學(xué)會知足，你就接近實(shí)現(xiàn)生活在現(xiàn)實(shí)中提出的要求。

2、Alan and Linda always dreamed of living “the good life.” Both from poor working-class families, they married young and set out to fulfill their mutual goal of becoming wealthy.They both worked very hard for years, amassing a small fortune, so they could move from their two-bedroom home to a palatial seven-bedroom home in the most upscale neighborhood.They focused their energies on accumulating all the things they believed signified abundance: membership in the local exclusive country club, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-class society friends.No matter how much they accumulated, however, it never seemed to be enough.They were unable to erase the deep fear of scarcity both had acquired in childhood.They needed to learn the lesson of abundance.Then the stock market crashed in 1987, and Alan and Linda lost a considerable amount of money.A bizarre but costly lawsuit depleted another huge portion of their savings.One thing led to another, and they found themselves in a financial disaster.Assets needed to be sold, and eventually they lost the country club membership, the cars, and the house.It took several years and much hard work for Alan and Linda to land on their feet, and though they now live a life far from extravagant, they have taken stock of their lives and feel quite blessed.Only now, as they assess what they have left--a solid, loving marriage, their health, a dependable income, and good friends--do they realize that true abundance comes not from amassing, but rather from appreciating.艾倫和琳達(dá)都來自貧苦的工人家庭，都一直夢想著過上“好日子”。他們早早地成了家，然后就開始為他們共同的致富目標(biāo)奮斗。他們拼命工作了好幾年，終于積攢了一筆錢，從兩居室搬到了一套坐落在最高檔街區(qū)的富麗堂皇的七居室大房子。此后，他們費(fèi)盡心思去積聚那些他們認(rèn)為是代表富足的東西：當(dāng)?shù)匚┮坏囊患亦l(xiāng)村俱樂部的會員資格、豪華汽車、名牌服裝，以及上流社會的朋友。但是，不論他們積聚了多少，似乎永遠(yuǎn)難以滿足。他們倆誰都無法消除小時(shí)侯對貧窮的刻骨銘心的恐懼。其實(shí)，他們就需要學(xué)會知足常樂這一課。1987年，股市遭受重創(chuàng)，艾倫和琳達(dá)損失慘重。禍不單行，一場莫名其妙的昂貴的官司又耗盡了他們的一大筆積蓄，這一切使他們陷入了經(jīng)濟(jì)困境。他們不得不變賣家產(chǎn)，最后他們丟掉了鄉(xiāng)村俱樂部的會員資格，失去了汽車和房子。艾倫和琳達(dá)努力奮斗了好幾年才從困境中走出來。現(xiàn)在他們的生活毫不奢華，但是他們是自己生活的主宰，幸福而又知足。只有在這時(shí)，他們才掂量著那些尚未失去的東西，如穩(wěn)固相愛的婚姻、健康的身體、可靠的收入、真正的朋友等等，他們終于認(rèn)識到，真正的富足不是來自財(cái)富的積聚，而是來自對所擁有的一切的珍視

3、Once learning stops, vegetation sets in.It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge.On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave.With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind.What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character.Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.一旦學(xué)習(xí)停止，單調(diào)貧乏的生活就開始了。視學(xué)校為汲取知識的唯一場所是種常見的謬誤。相反地，學(xué)習(xí)應(yīng)該是一種無終止的歷程，從生到死。由于世界一直快速地在變動(dòng)，只要學(xué)習(xí)停頓數(shù)日就將使人落后。更糟的是，蟄伏在我們潛意識深處的獸性本能就會復(fù)活，削弱我們追求高貴理想的意志，弱化我們掃除成功障礙的決心，而且扼殺我們凈化我們?nèi)烁竦挠Ｈ鄙賹W(xué)習(xí)將不可避免地導(dǎo)致心靈的停滯，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因此，為了保持心理年輕，我們必須將學(xué)習(xí)當(dāng)作一生的事業(yè)。

4、A MODEL STUDENT 模范學(xué)生

Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not.So far as I know, everybody intends to be(become)a model student.However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing.First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge.A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed.Secondly, he must remember to improve his health.Only a strong man can do great tasks.Thirdly, he should receive moral education.If his conduct is not good, no one will consider making friends with him.你價(jià)意被稱為壞學(xué)生嗎？當(dāng)然不。就我所知，每個(gè)人都打算做模范學(xué)生。

然而，做模范學(xué)生卻不容易。第一，他必須盡力獲得知識（求知）。一個(gè)沒有足夠知識的人是不會成功的。第二，他必須記住促進(jìn)健康。只有強(qiáng)壯的人才能做大事。第三，他應(yīng)該接受道德教育。如果他品行不好，沒有人會考慮和他交朋友的

5、HOW TO GET HAPPINESS 如何獲得快樂

There is no doubt that happiness is the most precious thing in the world.Without it, life will be empty and meaningless.If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points.First, health is the secret of happiness(the key to happiness).Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life.Secondly, happiness consists in contentment.A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress.無疑的快樂是世界上最寶貴的東西。沒有它，人生將是空虛的而且毫無意義的。如果你希望知道如何獲得快樂，你須注意下面兩點(diǎn)。

健康是快樂的要訣。唯有身體強(qiáng)壯的人才能享受人生的樂趣。

快樂在于知足。一個(gè)不滿于現(xiàn)狀的人終是處在痛苦之中

6、BOOKS 書籍

As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things.They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and strengthen our character.In other words, they are our good teachers and wise friends.This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of books.It is true that we can derive benefits from good books.However, bad books will do us more harm than good.如眾所周知，書籍教我們學(xué)習(xí)人生，真理，科學(xué)以及其它許多有用的東西。它們增加我們的知識，擴(kuò)大我們的心胸并加強(qiáng)我們的品格。換句話說，它們是我們的良師益友。這是為什么我們的父母終是鼓勵(lì)我們要多讀書的理由。

讀書是一好事，但我們必須多加注意書的選擇。不錯(cuò)，我們能從好書中獲得益處。然而，壞書卻對我們有害無益。

7、THE VALUE OF TIME 愛惜時(shí)光

An English proverb says that time is money.I consider it(this)wrong.Why? Because we all know that we can earn money be work but can not in any way get back time(in anyway).For this reason, we may(can)say that time is more valuable than money.Many people do not know the value of time.It(this)is indeed a great pity.We must bear(keep)in mind that wasting time is equal to wasting your life.英國有句諺語說，時(shí)間就是金錢。我認(rèn)為這是不對的。為什么？因?yàn)槲覀兇蠹叶贾牢覀兡軌蛴霉ぷ髻嶅X，但無論如何卻無法把時(shí)間爭取回來。基于此種理由，我們可以說時(shí)間比錢錢更寶貴。

許多人不知愛惜時(shí)光。這確實(shí)是可惜的。我們必須記住浪費(fèi)時(shí)間等于浪費(fèi)生命。

8、Wonderful life in winter holiday

From the sixteenth of January to the seventh of February is our Winter Holiday.I think everybody did a lot of things in the Winter Holiday.But I didn’t.Let you to listen to my story of Winter Holiday.I spend a lot of time on the homework..Every day in my Winter Holiday, I always got up late.then I listened to the tape, it was nine o’clock.then I ate breakfast and then I did my homework during the daytime!I’m not very slow but the homework was too heavy!I’m unlucky on the playing too.I played firecracker but I hurt my finger with the fire.I ‘m careless to kindle the firecracker, so I’m very unlucky.I still unlucky on my friend’s party.In the morning, I wanted to get up early but I woke up at 10:50.After ten minutes, the party would start!So I only eat a piece of bread then I go to my friend’s home!And I stay at his home for a long time when I came home.My mother and father were very angry and they scolded me!

從16日到2月的第七是我們的寒假。我想每個(gè)人都做了很多事情在寒假。但是我沒有。讓你聽我的故事的寒假。

我花了很多時(shí)間在功課..每天都在我的寒假，我總是站起身來晚了。然后我聽磁帶，這是九點(diǎn)鐘。然后我吃早餐，然后我做功課在白天！我不是很慢，但功課太重！

我不走運(yùn)的比賽太多。我打鞭炮，但我傷害我的手指與消防。我不小心點(diǎn)燃了鞭炮，所以我非常不走運(yùn)。我仍然對我的朋友不走運(yùn)的政黨。當(dāng)天上午，我想早起，但我醒來時(shí)10:50。10分鐘后，黨將開始！所以，我只能吃一片面包，我去朋友的家！和我住在他家很長一段時(shí)間時(shí)，我回家。我的母親和父親都感到非常憤怒，他們罵我吧！

我有點(diǎn)擔(dān)心，并認(rèn)為我的運(yùn)氣權(quán)衡。最后一個(gè)任期，我48千克，但現(xiàn)在我51千克！我必須這樣做班廷！

但最重要的，我去了上海海洋水族館，我希望去那里，因?yàn)槲曳浅ＯＭ吹今R，猴子......在海中。現(xiàn)在我已經(jīng)做到了。這是一個(gè)亮點(diǎn)在我的寒假。

9、Many students currently smoke and are still increasing.A survey revealed that two-fifths students of a school smoke, or even steal money to buy.For middle school students, smoking is more harmful than adults,which is not only harmful to the body, but also to the mind.Middle school students ,who are smoking, must realise that they are the future builders of a country.So what they should do is to give it up.目前不少學(xué)生吸煙且還在不斷增加。一份調(diào)查報(bào)告透露，某校有五分之二以上學(xué)生吸煙，有的甚至偷錢去買。對中學(xué)生來說，吸煙危害比成人更大，不僅有害于身體，還有害于思維。中學(xué)生是國家未來的建設(shè)者，吸煙的學(xué)生該下決心戒煙了。

10、Not long after an old Chinese woman came back to China from her visit to her daughter in the States, she went to a city bank to deposit the US dollars her daughter gave her.At the bank counter, the clerk checked each note carefully to see if the money was real.It made the old lady out of patience.At last she could not hold any more, uttering.“Trust me, Sir, and trust the money.They are real US dollars.They are directly from America.”

它們是從美國直接帶來的一位中國老婦人在美國看望女兒回來不久，到一家市銀行存女兒送給她的美元。在銀行柜臺，銀行職員認(rèn)真檢查了每一張鈔票，看是否有假。

這種做法讓老婦人很不耐煩，最后實(shí)在忍耐不住說：?相信我，先生，也請你相信這些鈔票。這都是真正的美元，它們是從美國直接帶來的。?

11、She kindled a third match.Again shot up the flame； and now she was sitting under a most beautiful Christmas tree ,far larger, and far more prettily decked out, than the one she had seen last Christmas eve through the glass doors of the rich merchant's house.Hundreds of wax-tapers lighted up the green branches, and tiny painted figures, such as she had seen in the shop-windows, looked down from the tree upon her.The child stretched out her hands towards them in delight, and in that moment the lights of the match warm quenched； still, however, the Christmas candles burned higher and higher，she beheld them beaming like stars in heaven； one of them fell, the lights streaming behind it like a long, fiery tail.?Now some one is dying,? said the little girl, softly, for she had been told by her old grandmother，the only person who had ever been kind to her, and who was now dead that whenever a star falls an immortal spirit returns to the God who gave it.She struck yet another match against the wall； it flamed up, and surrounded by its light, appeared before her that same dear grandmother, gentle and loving as always, but bright and happy as she had never looked during her lifetime.她擦著了第三根火柴，又冒出了火焰。現(xiàn)在她覺得正坐在非常美麗的圣誕樹下面，比上次圣誕節(jié)透過那富商家的玻璃門看到的那株還要大、還要美。這株樹的綠枝上點(diǎn)燃著許許多多的蠟燭，顏色瑰麗的圖畫，就象櫥窗里掛著的那些一樣漂亮，仿佛在向她眨眼。小姑娘把兩只手伸過去，火柴又熄滅了。然而圣誕樹上的燭光越升越高。她看到它們變成了明亮的星星，有一顆落下來，在天上劃出一道長長的火絲。

?現(xiàn)在又有一個(gè)什么人死了。?小姑娘說。因?yàn)樗睦献婺浮粋€(gè)唯一待她好的人，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)死了，曾經(jīng)告訴過她，天上落下一顆星，地上就有一個(gè)靈魂回到曾賦于他生命的上帝那里去。

她在墻上又擦了一根火柴，火光把四周照亮了。在亮光里，親愛的和生前一樣的祖母出現(xiàn)了。她依然是那么的慈愛和溫和，然而那快活和幸福的樣子卻是她生前從未有過的
