A Key to Happiness(1)by James T.Mangan

“ It is one of the most beautiful compensations sincerely try to help another without helping of life that no man can himself.” J.Pearson Webster

To help others, you don’t have to be an efficient the intention.You may be crude and clumsy, expert in the art, the main thing is wasteful try but to help, and your ineffective, attempt but if you sincerely knows your intention and is strengthened and good.The one you are produces trying nothing to help encouraged nearly every case, your simple desire to help, by the magic of your sharing.In converted sought.But perhaps the greatest good is the into action, produces the good good that you yourself get out of the attempt.Service than good, you free yourself into a clean world of the to joy others you deliver delivers to more them.joy In to doing you joy and light.The good you simply try to do, regardless of the outcome, is always a success inside yourself.What is An Educated Man ?(2)By George A.Coe

An Educated Man is one who is trained to use the tools of human intercourse with readiness, precision accuracy, especially language and the rudiments of numbers.An Educated Man must be able to study to think without guidance from others.He must be-to some extent—a thinker, not an imitator.An Educated Man must have sufficient knowledge of nature to understand the main processes upon which human life happiness depend.An Educated Man knows enough history to enable him to understand the main achievements of man.An Educated Man is acquainted with the major resources for intellectual and esthetic enjoyment.He knows nature, literature, music, and the other arts sufficiently to choose superior to inferior enjoyments.快樂之鑰

“任何一個人，如果真誠地試行幫助旁人，必然也同時幫助了自己，這乃是人生當中最優美的補償之。”——韋布斯特

想去幫助旁人，你不必是這值種藝術的能干的專家，主要的條件是意向。你也許是粗陋而笨拙的，浪費而低能的，但是如果你真誠地試行幫助旁人，你的嘗試必然產生善。你所打算幫助的人曉得了你的意向，并且被你的分擔負荷的神秘力量所增強和鼓勵。差不多在每一個事例之中，你的單純的助人愿望，在化為行動之后，都會產生所尋的善。但是最大的善，也許還是你自己從這項嘗試中所獲得的益處。在幫助旁人的時候，你本身所獲得的快樂要比你帶給那些人的快樂為多。在行善之中，你把本身從自我的可怕的附和之中解放出來，你脫離了自我，而進 入一個快樂和光明的清純世界。只要你去試行為善，不論其結果如何，再你的內心理面都永遠會是一項成功。

General MacArthur’s Prayer For His Son(3)by Douglas MacArthur

Build me a son , O Lord , who will be strong enough to know when he is weak;and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid;one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat , and humble and gentle in victory.Build me a son whose wishes will not take the place of deeds;a son who will know Thee — and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.Lead him , I pray , not in the path of ease and comfort , but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge.Here let him learn to stand up in the storm;here let him learn compassion for those who fail.Build me a son whose heart will be clean , whose goal will be high, a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men;one who will reach into the future , yet never forget the past.Companionship of Books(4)by Samuel Smiles

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.Books introduce us into the best society;they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived.We hear what they said and did;we see them as if they were really alive;we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them;their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.麥師為子祈禱文

主啊，請陶冶我的兒子，使他成為一個堅強的人，能夠知道自己什么時候是軟弱的；使他成為一個勇敢的人，能夠在畏懼的時候認清自己，謀求補救；使他在誠實的失敗之中，能夠自豪而不屈，在獲得成功之際，能夠謙遜而溫和。

請陶冶我的兒子，使他不要以愿望代替實際作為；使它能夠認識主——并且曉得自知乃是知識的基石。

我祈求你，不要引導他走上安逸舒適的道路，而要讓他遭受困難與挑戰的磨練和策勵。讓他藉此學習在風暴之中挺立起來，讓他藉此學習對失敗的人加以同情。

以書為伴

好書就像是你最好的朋友。它始終不渝，過去如此，現在如此，將來也永遠不變。它是最有耐心，最令人愉悅的伴侶。在我們窮愁潦倒，臨危遭難時，它也不會拋棄我們，對我們總是一如既往地親切。在我們年輕時，好書陶冶我們的性情，增長我們的知識；到我們年老時，它又給我們以慰藉和勉勵。

書籍介紹我們與最優秀的人為伍，使我們置身于歷代偉人巨匠之間，如聞其聲，如觀其行，如見其人，同他們情感交融，悲喜與共，感同身受。我們覺得自己仿佛在作者所描繪的舞臺上和他們一起粉墨登場。

Friendship(5)

No young man starting life could have better capital than plenty of friends.They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be.Friends of the right sort will help him more---to be happy and successful---than much money or great learning.Friendship is no one-sided affair.There can be no friendship without reciprocity.One cannot receive all and give nothing, or give all and receive nothing, and expect to experience the joy and fullness of true companionship.Those who would make friends must cultivate the qualities which are admired and which attract.If you are mean, stingy and selfish, nobody will admire you.You must cultivate generosity and large-heartedness;you must be magnanimous and tolerant;you must have positive qualities, for a negative, shrinking, apologizing, roundabout man is despised.On Staying Young(6)by Samuel Ullman Youth is not a time of life;it is a state of mind;it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees;it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for 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 a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.友誼

by Oriaon Swett Marden

剛剛開始人生途程的青年人，他所能具有的最大資本，莫過于許多朋友。朋友可以加強他的聲譽，在每一項偉大努力之中對他加以支持，并且使他成為一個更好的人，而如果沒有那些朋友的幫助，他便永遠無從變成那樣的人。為了達到幸福和成功的目的，益友對于他的幫助要比大量金錢和淵博學問為多。

友誼不是單方面的事情。沒有交互關系，便不會有友誼。一個人如果只取不與，或只與不取，便無從體驗真實友誼的快樂和豐滿。

想結交朋友的人們，必須培養那些受人欽敬并且具有吸引力量的性質。如果你小氣、吝嗇、而自私，沒有人會欽敬你。你必須培養慷慨和大度；你必須寬宏大量，善于容忍；你必須具有一些積極的性質，因為一個消極、畏縮、辯解，而轉彎抹角的人是被人輕視的。

永保青春

青春并不是人生當中的一段時期，而是一種心理狀態；代表青春的并不是紅光滿面，身手矯捷，而是堅強的意志，高超的想像，旺盛的感情；青春乃是生命之幽深泉源的一股清新氣質。

青春的含義，是用勇敢克服懦弱，以冒險代替安逸。一個年屆耳順的人，有時可以比二十歲的少年更富于青春氣息。單是歲月的增進，并不足以使人衰老；放棄自己的理想，才會使人衰老。

歲月會在皮膚上面留下皺紋，失去熱情則會在靈魂上面留下皺紋。憂慮、懷疑、缺乏自信、恐懼和絕望——這些情緒會把心靈壓垮，使精神崩潰。

勇氣

日常生活中的勇氣往往不象最后時刻的勇氣那樣輝煌壯觀,但它依然算得上是一個悲喜交加的非凡的混合體.無論個人結果怎樣,無論要經歷多少阻礙、危險和壓力,一個人必須做他該做的事情,這是一切人類道德的基礎.做到勇敢,并不需要非凡的資質,也無需神奇的方案,以及特定的時間、地點和環境,它只是一個遲早都會出現在我們所有人面前的機會.政治不過是提供了一個舞臺,在這個舞臺上能夠對勇氣進行特殊的測試.無論是在人生的哪一個舞臺上,我們都有可能遇見挑戰,如果他循規蹈矩的話,任何犧牲都有可能是他所要面對的--失去朋友,失去運氣,失去知己,甚至失去同胞的尊重--每個人都必須決定自己將要走的路.所有昔日關于勇氣的故事能夠詳細界定勇敢的因素--這些故事可以教育我們,可以給予我們希望,也可以激勵我們,但是它們無法為我們提供勇氣.正因為如此,每個人都必須審視自己的靈魂.

第二篇：英語美文

1.Waste

Mankind is wasting things everywhere and every day.Wherever we turn, we can see that paper, bottles and cans are thrown away;food is wasted just because of its poor taste;clothes are discarded simply due to their old fashion.Not only are things and money are wasted, but natural resources are abused as well.Trees are cut down merely for fuel;wildlife is killed simply for food;oil, coal and minerals are exploited in a bad way.It is time to call for an end to waste.We must save natural resources and make full use of them;otherwise human beings will be faced with the scarcity of natural resources and suffer from the pollution caused by waste.2.No Pains, No Gains

The height which great men reach and keep is not attained by a sudden flight.Most of us feel envious of the famous and successful people.We do not understand why they are so popular and honored while we are mere simple common folks.In our misconception, we think that people are prosperous because they are especially gifted or that they are “just lucky”.All these have taken root in our stubborn minds, and we refuse to believe that most great men have a mind which is the same as, or perhaps even simpler and duller than ours.Yet, their triumphs are great.Why? Because they are apt to fight difficulties with perseverance and without fatigue, undergo sufferings without minding the wounds;they realize that hardships form the road which they must pass through before reaching their destination.Their endurance is more powerful than that of ours for the simple reason that they submit without complaint to each storm in life.3.Rome Was Not Built in a Day

The good old proverb, “Rome was not built in a day,” reminds us that great things are never done without much time and labor.It takes us back to Rome, the capital of the greatest empire of the ancient world and the most brilliant city of ancient times.Indeed, Rome was built through the labors of many a great man who had been striving against difficulties.As human beings, we are eager to win merits for ourselves.It is, however, only patience as well as endurance that can help us to succeed in performing great deeds;for difficulties are in fact unavoidable, unless we do not engage in anything at all.Young people are, however, mostly impatient.Brave as they may be in the beginning, they often give up halfway in the face of what seems to be insurmountable.Most of such a type can hardly expect to succeed.4.Don’t Give Up

If we would ever accomplish anything in life, let us not forget that we must persevere.If we would learn our lessons in school, we must be diligent and not give up whenever we come across anything difficult.We will find many of our lessons very hard, but let us consider that the harder they are the better they will be for us if we will persevere and learn them thoroughly.But there are some among us who are ready to give up when they come to a hard example in mathematics, and say, “I can’t do this.” They never will if they feel so.“I can’t” never does anything worthwhile;but “I’ll try” accomplishes wonders.Let us remember that we will meet with difficulties all through life.They are in the pathway of everyone.If we will only try and keep trying, we will be sure to conquer and overcome every difficulty we meet.If we have a hard lesson today, let us strive to learn it well and then we will be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.And if we learn to master hard lessons in school, it will prepare us to overcome the hard things that we will meet in life when our schooldays are over.5.Time is a Bank

Each of us has a bank whose name is TIME.Every morning, TIME credits you with 86,400 seconds.Every night it writes off, as loss, whatever of this you have failed to invest in good purposes.It carries over no balances.It allows no overdraft.Each day it opens a new account for you.Each night it burns the remains of the day.If you fail to use the day deposits, the loss is yours.There is no going back.There is no drawing against tomorrow.You must live in the present on today’s deposits.Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success!The clock is running.Make the most of today.6.The College Experience

Going to college!What a thrill!It’s a trip that has everything great that you have heard about if you make it so.It is also a very serious business.To a great extent, you will be on your own.True, there are an awful lot of people ready to help you, but generally you must take the initiative and seek them out.Today’s world is full of precious knowledge, whether it be in the arts, literature, a profession, or a vocational skill.College is your chance of a lifetime to explore these areas.Each facet can be as exciting when discovered by you as it was when discovered by the original author or explorer.Let yourself explore beyond your immediate career objectives.A student in auto mechanics in most schools also can take courses in history, philosophy, music, or art.There is no reason a craftsman can’t also be a great thinker, or an explorer in the vast areas of unlimited knowledge.For a rich full life he or she should make the most of the opportunities at hand.Going to college means a lot more than earning a grade.To limit your college experience will be a waste to you and to all of people, past and present, who have invested their pennies, dimes and dollars — often at great personal sacrifice — to make educational opportunities open for you.Putting it bluntly, college is a place to be greedy — take all you can get and then some more.Thus, as you stand on the threshold of your college career, commit yourself and stand by that commitment.From the first day of class, discipline yourself to make learning fun, not a chore, and to get the most from the educational opportunities open to you.7.Friends

Friends are important.It has often been said that “No man can live like an island.” As our population increases in size, this is becoming increasingly true.A person will have trouble coping with society without friends.Friends should not be confused with acquaintances.Acquaintances are people whom you may see often.But, you could never share joy and sadness with an acquaintance.Acquaintances are usually with you for what they can get.Maybe, they like to be with you because you are popular.People usually have few friends and many acquaintances.Friends are always there when you need them.They are dependable and responsible.They share your sorrow and happiness.They are not interested in what they can get from you.They influence your development, maturity and sense of responsibility.They also warn you when you are in danger of doing wrong.Yes, friends are wonderful.It is nice to enjoy the warmth radiating from good friends.8.Don’t Cover Your Ideas

Give away everything you know and more will come back to you.You will remember from school other students preventing you from seeing their answers by placing their arms around their exercise books or exam paper.It is the same at work, and people are secretive with ideas.“Don’t tell them because they’ll take credit for it.”

The problem with hoarding is that you end up living off your reserves.Eventually you’ll become stale.If you give away everything you have, you are left with nothing.This forces you to look, to be aware, to replenish.Somehow the more you give away, the more comes back to you.Ideas are open knowledge.Don’t claim ownership.They’re not your ideas anyway: they’re someone else’s.They are out there floating by on the ether.You just have to put yourself in a frame of mind to pick them up.9.Don’t Escape from Problems

Some people who find themselves unable to solve a problem react by just giving up.But it is not good to escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures.You may be sure that all young people go through the same difficult process that you are going through: meeting new situations, developing new skills, and testing their abilities.If you are unhappy about something, face it.Try to state the problem in a few words, so that you will know exactly what you are up against.Then see if you can “put your finger” on the cause of your unhappiness.In many cases, we only “think” there is no solution to a particular problem.But often we can overcome the problem and achieve the goal by making a direct attack.10.Think Positively

If you want to get somewhere, you have to know where you want to go and how to get there.Then just never, never, never give up.The secret of life isn’t what happens to you, but what you do with what happens to you.Help other people to cope with their problems and your own will be easier to cope with.Never use the word “impossible” seriously again.Toss it into the verbal wastebasket.Self-confidence is the first secret of success.So believe yourself!Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them.You will find that they haven’t half the strength you think they have.Joy increases as you give it and diminishes as you try to keep it for yourself.In giving it, you will accumulate more joy than you ever believed possible.How you think about a problem is more important than the problem itself, so always think positively.Plunge head first into life;give it all you’ve got.And life will give all it has to you.

第四篇：英語美文

;It is not difficult to imagine a world short of ambition.It would probably be a kinder world: without demands, without abrasions, without disappointments.People would have time for reflection(磨損).Such work as they did would not be for themselves but for the collectivity.Competition would never enter in, conflict would be eliminated, tension become a thing of the past.The stress of creation would be at an end.Art would no longer be troubling, but purely celebratory in its functions.Longevity would be increased, for fewer people would die of heart attack or stroke caused by tumultuous endeavor.Anxiety would be extinct.Time would stretch on and on, with ambition long departed from the human heart.Ah, how unrelieved boring life would be!

There is a strong view that holds that success is a myth, and ambition therefore a sham(騙子).Does this mean that success does not really exist? That achievement is at bottom empty? That the efforts of men and women are of no significance alongside the force of movements and events? Now not all success, obviously, is worth esteeming, nor all ambition worth cultivating.Which are and which are not is something one soon enough learns on one's own.But even the most cynical secretly admit that success exists;that achievement counts for a great deal;and that the true myth is that the actions of men and women are useless.To believe otherwise is to take on a point of view that is likely to be deranging.It is, in its implications, to remove all motives for competence, 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.

英語美文（摘抄）

All that is beautiful poems and passages of life things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想 Think it over...好好想想??

today we have higher buildings and wider highways, but shorter temperaments and narrower points of view;今天我們擁有了更高層的樓宇以及更寬闊的公路，但是我們的性情卻更為急躁，眼光也更加狹隘；

we spend more, but enjoy less;我們消耗的更多，享受到的卻更少；

we have bigger houses, but smaller families;我們的住房更大了，但我們的家庭卻更小了； we have more compromises, but less time;我們妥協更多，時間更少；

we have more knowledge, but less judgment;我們擁有了更多的知識，可判斷力卻更差了； we have more medicines, but less health;我們有了更多的藥品，但健康狀況卻更不如意； we have multiplied out possessions, but reduced out values;我們擁有的財富倍增，但其價值卻減少了；

we talk much, we love only a little, and we hate too much;we reached the moon and came back, but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors;we have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space;we have higher income, but less morals;these are times with more liberty, but less joy;we have much more food, but less nutrition;these are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home, but divorces increase;these are times of finer houses, but more broken homes;All that is beautiful poems and passages of life things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.That’s why I propose, that as of today;You do not keep anything for a special occasion.Because every day that you live is a special occasion.search for knowledge, read more ,sit on your porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs;spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, visit the places you love;life is a chain of moments of enjoyment;not only about survival;use your crystal goblets.Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it.Remove from your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days “or “someday”;let's write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days”!let's tell our families and friends how much we love them;do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life;every day, every hour, and every minute is special;and you don't know if it will be your last.我們說的多了，愛的卻少了，我們的仇恨也更多了； 我們可以往返月球，但卻難以邁出一步去親近我們的左鄰右舍；我們可以征服外太空，卻征服不了我們的內心；我們的收入增加了，但我們的道德卻少了；我們的時代更加自由了，但我們擁有的快樂時光卻越來越少；我們有了更多的食物，但所能得到的營養卻越來越少了；現在每個家庭都可以有雙份收入，但離婚的現象越來越多了；現在的住房越來越精致，但我們也有了更多破碎的家庭；這就是我為什么要說，讓我們從今天開始；不要將你的東西為了某一個特別的時刻而預留著，因為你生活的每一天都是那么特別；尋找更多的知識，多讀一些書，坐在你家的前廊里，以贊美的眼光去享受眼前的風景，不要帶上任何功利的想法；花多點時間和朋友與家人在一起，吃你愛吃的食物，去你想去的地方；生活是一串串的快樂時光；我們不僅僅是為了生存而生存；舉起你的水晶酒杯吧。不要吝嗇灑上你最好的香水，你想用的時候就享用吧！從你的詞匯庫中移去所謂的“有那么一天”或者“某一天”；曾打算“有那么一天”去寫的信，就在今天吧！告訴家人和朋友，我們是多么地愛他們；
