篇1：适合初中生欣赏的英语美文赏析，附翻译
一、来自你身体的一封信
Hi! It's your body here!
Allow me to reintroduce myself.
嗨，我是你的身体!
允许我再自我介绍一下。
I'm the home that you've always lived in.
Surely you remember.
We grew up together!
我是你一直住着的“家”。
你肯定记得我，
我们一起长大的。
And I'm writing in this letter cause,
I feel neglected in this relationship,
very disappointed in what I've been seeing.
我写这封信是因为，
我感觉我在这段关系里被忽视了。
我对我所看到的很失望。
With your ambition to make money
you sacrificed my well being,
which makes no sense in the least
because when I get sick
you sacrificed that same money
to recuperate ME.
你有想挣钱的雄心，
却为此牺牲我的健康。
这完全不合理，
因为如果我病了，
你赚的那些钱都要用来给我治病!
And what's even more ironic
is with all your interest in profit
you can't even see the truth
that I'm worth over A BILLION DOLLARS.
更讽刺的是，
你利欲熏心，
甚至看不清这个事实：
我才是最宝贵的啊!
Don't believe me?
Okay I'll prove it.
你不相信?
好吧，我证明给你看。
If someone came to you
with a check for One Million
and said “Here.
All I want in return is your eyesight.”
如果有人拿着100万的支票来找你，
他说：“给你，作为交换，
我想要你的视觉。”
You will never be able to see another sunset
for the rest of your natural life.
Would you take that deal?
你将在余生里再也看不到夕阳，
这样的交易你愿意吗?
Ok, let's up the bid.
好吧，让我们把赌注加大
Suppose he had a check for Ten Million instead,
And if you accepted
you would no longer have use of your arms or legs.
Would you take THAT deal?
假设他有一张千万的支票，
如果你接受了，
你将再也无法使用四肢。
你要交换吗?
I can answer that for you.
NO.
我可以替你回答。NO。
Those are silly options because you know that
as your body I am worth over a BILLION DOLLARS.
这都是一些很愚蠢的选择，
因为我的价值远不止于此。
And don't get me started with the heart.
If I was a company, right?
This Heart wouldn't get Employee of the Month.
It would get the Employee of the LIFE!
别让我提心脏了。
如果我是一间公司，
心脏不会得到“月度最佳员工”称号。
它要得到的是“终身最佳员工”。
Because throughout your entire existence as a person,
your heart never stops working!
因为在你的一生里，
你的心脏从未停止工作!
Even when you're sleeping
it doesn't stop beating,
that's EVERY SECOND
EVERY MINUTE
EVERY DAY
and come to think of it
I can't recall you ever saying Thanks.
即使在你睡觉时，
它也没有停止跳动，
每秒每分每天都在工作，
现在想想，
我不曾听你说过谢谢。
Anyway I don't want this to come off as rude.
Just asking for a little attention here dude.
无论如何，
我不想冒犯你，
只是想要你对我多点关心。
I know you try to make me look perfect
when you're Instagramming.
But we both know you been taking me for granted.
我知道你发朋友圈时想让我尽量看起来完美。
但是我们都知道，
你并不重视我。
Consider this an opportunity.
After this video ends
don't click to the next one like you do usually.
借此机会，
看完这个视频，
别忙着像往常一样点下一个。
Take some time by yourself.
Just, you and me.
Place your hand on your chest
and say “Thank You” to your heartbeat.
给你和我一点独处的时间。
把你的手放在胸口，对心脏说“谢谢”。
To your EYES, LEGS, ARMS.
To your hands that your use for climbing.
To your lungs that bring you breathe
without you even trying.
对你的眼睛、双腿、胳膊，
对你用来攀爬的手，
对让你呼吸的肺部说“谢谢”。
I do it all for you, cause you come first.
Cause you're my homie!
We go way back, don't we?
Like, birth?
我为你做这一切，
是因为你永远是我的第一位，
因为你是我的好朋友，
我们认识很久了，对吧?
大概，从出生开始?
I just think it's time
you start treating me what I'm worth.
我想，
是时候你该给我应有的对待了。
二、The Snow Man 雪人
One must have a mind of winter
人必须去怀有冬日的心境
To regard the frost
and the boughs
才能去看霜
看那松树上
Of the pine-trees
crusted with snow
挂满雪冰的树枝
And have been cold a long time
人必须长期饱受寒冷
To behold the junipers
shagged with ice
才能欣赏披着冰雪般发丝的杜松
The spruces rough
in the distant glitter
才能领悟远处粗硬的云杉
Of the January sun;
and not to think
在一月阳光下的闪烁;
他才能不去想
Of any misery
in the sound of the wind
那蕴含于风的呼啸声
In the sound of a few leaves
和树叶的飘零中的那份凄凉
Which is the sound of the land
那是大地的声音
Full of the same wind
大地刮起同样的风
That is blowing
in the same bare place
在同一个荒野上吹拂
For the listener,
who listens in the snow
那风为雪中的聆听者所刮
And, nothing himself, beholds
他自身虚无，
看不见
Nothing that is not there
and the nothing that is
那些不存在的
却看见存在的虚无
篇2：适合当睡前读物的英语美文赏析，附翻译
美文好比一杯香茶。浓茶之苦涩，提神健脑;清茶之淡香，沁人心脾。品茶者观色、识香、知味。香茶细细品尝，觉其清苦，回味甘甜，香郁味醇，一切尽在不言中。希望大家会喜欢这些美文。
一、当我俩分手时
When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.
当我们俩分手时
沉默不语满含泪花
想起来都心碎
要分离好几年
你的脸苍白冰冷
吻你似冰霜
当时真预兆了
今天的悲痛
The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow -
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.
早晨的寒露
覆在我的眉毛上
那种感觉好像是
对我发出警告
你抛弃了所有声誉
变得声名狼藉
我听到别人说你的名字
顿感脸红
They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me -
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee too well: -
Long, long shall I rue thee,
Too deeply to tell.
他们当着我的面讲你
如丧钟入耳
我全身立即颤抖--
为什么对你如此情重?
他们不知道我认识你
对你太熟悉了
我将长久为你感到惋惜，
悲痛不已
In secret we met -
In silence I grieve,
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee? -
With silence and tears.
我们秘密相会
我感到默默悲伤
你的心把我欺骗
以致遗忘
如果再遇见你
多年以后
我该如何招呼你?
只好沉默不语满含泪花
二、我一无所求
I asked nothing,only stood at the edge
of the wood behind the tree.
Languor was still upon the eyes of the dawn,
and the dew in the air.
我一无所求
只站在林边树后
倦意还逗留在黎明的眼上
露润在空气里
The lazy smell of the damp grass
hung in the thin mist above the earth.
Under the banyan tree
you were milking the cow with your hands,
tender and fresh as butter.
湿草的懒味悬垂在地面的薄雾中
在榕树下你用乳油般柔嫩的手挤着牛奶
And I was standing still.
I did not come near you.
我沉静地站立着
我没有走近你
The sky woke with the sound
of the gong at the temple
The dust was raised in the road
from the hoofs of the driven cattle.
天空和庙里的锣声一同醒起
街尘在驱走的牛蹄下飞扬
With the gurgling pitchers at their hips,
women came from the river.
Your bracelets were jingling,
and foam brimming over the jar.
把汩汩发响的水瓶搂在腰上
女人们从河边走来
你的钏镯丁当
乳沫溢出罐沿
The morning wore on
and I did not come near you.
晨光渐逝而我没有走近你
三、寂静之声
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
你好黑暗，我的老朋友
我又来和你海阔天空神侃
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds
while I was sleeping
And the vision
that was planted in my brain
Still remains
因为有个影子悄悄潜入
趁我熟睡埋下了它的种子
这影子根植于我的大脑里
至今还留在
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams
I walked alone
静默之声的地盘中
在不安的梦境中我独自游荡
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Neath the halo of a street lamp
鹅卵石的街道狭窄幽长
在一盏街灯的光晕下
I turned my collar
to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed
by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
我竖起衣领抵挡寒冷潮湿
就在我的眼睛
被一盏霓虹灯的闪光刺穿的同时
光芒划破了夜空
打破了这份静默
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
在孱弱的烛光中我看到
成千上万的人们，或许更多
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs
that voices never share
And no one dare
disturb the sound of silence
人们缄口却倾述心声
人们罔闻却声声贯耳
人们写歌却从没嗓音分享
静默之声没人敢打扰
“Fools” said I, “You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows”
“傻瓜”，我说，“你见识不长
静默像癌细胞一样生长”
Hear my words
that I might teach you
Take my arms
that I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
有益的教诲你当听取
有助的臂膀你该挽起
但话语如雨滴悄然落下
在静默的源泉中渐渐模糊
And the people bowed and prayed
to the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
And the words that it was forming
人们向自己塑造的霓虹神灵膜拜祈祷
告示牌上闪烁出神灵的警告
若隐若现显示成行
And the sign said:
”The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence.“
告示牌上写道：
先贤们的箴言涂鸦在地铁的大墙
以及公寓走廊上
也在静默之声中被低声传送”
篇3：适合小学生的英语美文鉴赏，附翻译
一、《优秀仅仅是种习惯》
Excellence is not an act, but a habit
Our character, basically, is a composite of our habits. “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny,” the maxim goes.
人的品德基本上是由习惯组成的。 俗语说;思想决定行动，行动决定习惯，习惯决定品德，品德决定命运。
Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
习惯对我们的生活有绝大的影响，因为它们是一贯的。 在不知不觉中， 经年累月影响着我们的品德，暴露出我们的本性，左右着我们的成败。
As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “habits are like a cable. We weave a strand of it every day and soon it cannot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But is also know it isn’t a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous commitment.
美国著名教育家曼恩曾说：“习惯就仿佛是一条缆绳，我们每天为他缠上一股新索，不要多久就会变得牢不可破。”这句话的后半段我不敢苟同，我相信习惯可以养成，也可以打破，但绝不是一蹴而就，而是需要长期的努力和无比的毅力。
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were transfixed as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts literally had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half a million miles.
宇航员搭乘阿波罗11号太空船，首次登陆月球的刹那，的确令人叹为观止。但宇航员得先摆脱地球强大的引力，才能飞往月球。由此在刚发射的几分钟，也就是整个任务一开始的几英里之内，是最艰难的时刻，所耗的力量往往超越往后的几十万英里。
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply imbedded habitual tendencies such as procrastination, impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that violate basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new dimension.
习惯也是一样，它具有极大的引力，只是许多人不加注意或不肯承认了。想要革除因循苟且，缺乏耐心，吹毛求疵或自私自利等不良习性，若是缺乏意志力，不能大刀阔斧的改革，便难以实现目标。“起飞”需要极大的努力，然而一旦脱离重力的牵绊，我们便可享受前所未有的自由。
二、一棵开花的树
May Buddha let us meet
in my most beautiful hours,
I have prayed for it
for five hundred years.
如何让你遇见我在我最美丽的时刻
为这我已在佛前求了五百年
求佛让我们结下一段尘缘
Buddha made me a tree
By the path you may take.
于是佛把我化做一棵树
长在你必经的路旁
In full blossoms
I'm waiting in the sun
Every flower
carrying my previous hope.
阳光下慎重地开满了花
朵朵都是我前世的盼望
As you are near,
Listen carefully
The quivering leaves
are my waiting zeal,
当你走近
请你细听
那颤抖的叶是我等待的热情
As you pass by the tree
without noticing me.
My friend,
Upon the ground behind you
Is not the fallen petals
But my withered heart.
而当你终于无视地走过
在你身后落了一地的
朋友啊
那不是花瓣
那是我凋零的心
篇4：英语美文摘抄附翻译
Wherever you are, and whoever you may be, there is one thing in which you and I are just alike at this monment, and in all the moments of our existence. We are not at rest, we are on a journey. Our life is a movement, a tendency, a steady, ceaseless progress towards an unseen goal.
不论你处在什么地方，也不论你是什么人，不管是在此时此刻，还是在我们生命中的任何一个瞬间，有一件事对你我来说是恰巧相同的，我们不是在休息，我们是在一次旅途中，我们的生活是一种运动，一种趋势，是向一个看不见的目标稳定而不停地进步。
We are gaining something, or losing something, or losing something, everyday. Even when our position and our character seem to remain precisely the same, they are changing. For the mereadvance of time is a change. It is not the same thing to have a bare field in January and in July. The season makes the difference. The limitations that are childlike in the child are childish in the man.
每一天，我们都会赢得某些东西，或者会失去某些东西。 甚至当我们的位置与我们的性格看起来跟以前完全相似时，它们事实上仍然在变化着。因为仅仅是时间的前进就是一种变化。对于一块荒地来说，在1月与7月是不同的，季节会制造差异。能力上的缺陷对于孩子来说是一种可爱的品质，但对于大人来说就是一种幼稚的表现。
Everything that we do is a step in one direction or another. Even the failure to do something is in itself a deed. it sets us forward or backward. the action of the negative pole of a magnetic needle is just as real as the action of the positive pole. To decline is to accept--the other alternative.
我们做的每一件事都是朝着一个或另一个方向前进一步。 甚至 没有做任何事情 这件事本身也是一种行为，它让我们前进或后退，一根刺针阴极的作用与阳极的作用都是一样真实的，拒绝也是一种接受--这些都是二中择一的选择。
Are you nearer to your port today than you were yesterday? yes, you must be a little nearer to some port or other for since your ship was first launched upon the sea of life, you have never been still for a single monment, the sea is too deep, you could not find an anchorage if you would, there can be no pause until you come into port.
你今天比昨天更接近你的港口了吗？是的--你必须接近某一个港口或者其他港口。自从你第一次被抛人生活之海，你的船连一分钟都没有静止过，海是如此之深，你也不可能找到一个抛锚的地方，于是你不可能停下来，知道你到达自己的港口。
篇5：适合当高中生睡前读物的英语美文赏析，附翻译
一、《快乐之门》
The Happy Door
Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples.
快乐就像一块为了激起阵阵涟漪而丢进池塘的小石头。
As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.
正好史蒂文森所说，快乐是一种责任。
There is no exact definition of the word happiness.
快乐这个词并没有确切的定义，
Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons.
快乐的人快乐的理由多种多样。
The key is not wealth or physical well-being,
快乐的关键并不是财富或身体健康，
since we find beggars, invalids and so-called failures, who are extremely happy.
因为我们发现有些乞丐，残疾人和所谓的失败者也都非常快乐。
Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend.
快乐是一种意外的收获，
But staying happy is an accomplishment, a triumph of soul and character.
但保持快乐却是一种成就，一种灵性的胜利。
It is not selfish to strive for it.
努力追寻快乐并不自私，
It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.
实际上，这是我们对自己和他人应尽的责任。
Being unhappy is like an infectious disease.
不快乐就像传染病，
It causes people to shrink away from the sufferer.
它使得人们都躲避不快乐的人。
He soon finds himself alone, miserable and embittered.
不快乐的人很快就会发现自己处于孤独，悲惨，痛苦的境地。
There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem,
然而，有一种简单得看似荒谬的治病良方：
at first glance, ridiculous; if you don't feel happy, pretend to be!
如果你不快乐，就假装你很快乐!
It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling people, you attract them.
这很有效。不久你就会发现，别人不再躲着你了，相反，你开始吸引别人了。
You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.
你会发觉，做一块能激起好意涟漪的小石头有多么值得。
Then the make-believe becomes a reality.
然后假装就变成了现实。
You possess the secret of peace of mind, and can forget yourself in being of service to others.
你拥有了使心灵平静的秘密，会因帮助他人而忘我。
Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit,

opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged with grateful friends.
通向不可思议的乐园的大门就会向你敞开，那里满是感激你的朋友。
二、《上帝与孩子的精彩对话》
A Wonderful Dialogue between God and a Child
上帝与孩子的精彩对话
Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born.
从前，有一个婴儿即将出生了。
One day the child asked God, ”They tell me you are going to send me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless? “
一天，这个小孩问上帝，“他们告诉我明天你将要把我送到地球，不过我这么弱小无助，在那儿该如何生活呢?”
God replied, ”Among the many angels, I have chosen one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you.“
上帝答道：“在众多天使之中，我已经给你选中了一位。她将会等待并照顾你。”
”But,“ said the child, ”tell me here in Heaven I don't do anything else but sing and smile. That's what I need to be happy!“
“不过”，小孩说请告诉我——在天堂我除了歌唱和微笑之外什么都不做。这些是我快乐所需要的!”
God said, ”Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy.“
上帝说，“你的天使每天将会为你歌唱，也会为你微笑。你将会感受到你的天使的爱，你会感到快乐。”
”And,“ said the child, ”how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me, if I don't know the language that men talk?“
“还有”，小孩又说道，“如果我不懂他们说的语言，当人对我说话的时候我怎样才会理解呢?”
That's easy, said God, ”Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.“
“这很简单，”上帝说，“你的天使将教会你语言中最美丽和最甜蜜的词语，带着最大的耐心和关怀，你的天使将教会你怎样说话。”
The child looked up at God saying, ”And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?“ God smiled at the child saying, ”Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.“
小孩抬头看着上帝说，“我想和你说话的时候该怎么做呢?”上帝微笑着对小孩说你的天使会把你的双手放在一起然后教会你怎样祈祷。”
The child said, ”I've heard on earth there are bad men. Who will protect me?“
小孩说：“我听说地球上有坏人，谁将会保护我呢?”
God put his arm around the child, saying, ”Your angel will defend you--even if it means risking life!“
上帝将手臂环绕小孩，说，“你的天使将会保护你：——即使那意味着冒着生命的危险!”
The child looked sad saying, ”But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.“
小孩看起来有些悲伤地说，“我将会一直感到悲伤因为我再也看不到你了。”
God hugged the child, ”Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you.“
上帝拥抱着小孩说，“你的天使会一直跟你说有关我的事情，还会教你回到我身边的方法，虽说我一直与你同在。”
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard.
在这一刻天堂变得无比安详，不过已经可以听到从地球上传来的声音。
The child, in a hurry, asked softly, ”Oh, God, if I am about to leave now please tell me my angel's name! “
小孩有点着急，柔声请求，“上帝啊，如果我现在将要离开，请告诉我我的天使的名字!”
God replied, ”Your angle's name is of no importance…you will simply call her MOMMY! “
上帝回答说，“你的天使的名字并不那么重要…你可以简单地叫她‘妈妈’。”
篇6：超级优美的英语美文赏析，附翻译
一、你的思想，才是世界的主宰
You're shut down and frightened, the world seems hostile; when you love what is, everything in the world becomes the beloved. Inside and outside always match -- they're reflections of each other. The world is the mirror image of your mind.
当你脑子停滞放空、被恐惧笼罩着，你就会觉得整个世界都不怀好意;当你爱上这个世界本身，你就会觉得世上的每样东西都值得你爱。心中所想和外物所现总是息息相关，它们互相映衬，外界就是你内心的镜像。
Not believing your own thoughts, you're free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realize the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there's no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It's simple, because there really isn't anything. There's only the story appearing now. And not even that.
如果你不相信自己的想法，那么你就可以免受原始欲望的驱使：因为你所想的现实往往不是其真实的样子。你意识到默默无言的和无法置信的，你会明白一切的神秘只是你自己在故弄玄虚。事实上每件事都是一清二楚，很容易就可以明白，因为并没有发生什么事。现在只是发生了一件事，它甚至不算是事。
When you realize that you can only see the world as you believe it to be, you look from a newperspective. The world is an optical illusion. In the end, it's just you, crazed and miserable, or you, delighted and at peace. Everything happens for you, not to you.
当你意识到你只能看到你所相信的世界时，你便从新的角度看待这个世界了。世界是一种错觉，到最后，世界就是你，那个疯狂又痛苦的你或是愉快又平和的你，每件事都是为你发生，而不是发生于你。
I have questioned my thoughts, and I've seen that it's crazy to argue with what is. I don't ever want anything to happen except what's happening. For example, a man sticks a pistol into my stomach, pulls the hammer back, and says, ”I'm going to kill you.“ I am shocked that he is taking his thoughts so seriously. To someone identified as an I, the thought of killing causes guilt that leads to a life of suffering, so I ask him, as kindly as I can, not to do it.
我曾经质疑过我的思想，然后我明白了与此纠缠是不切实际的。除了正在发生的事情以外，我从未想过有什么事要发生。举个例子，有人拿枪指着我的肚子，把扳机往下扣，说：“我要杀了你。”我很吃惊，因为他这么认真地执行了他的思想。对于任何一个将自己定义为“我”的人，杀人的想法会使之感到罪孽深重、一辈子饱受煎熬。于是我用尽可能善良的态度请求他不要杀人。
I don't tell him that it's his suffering I'm thinking of. He says that he has to do it, and I understand; I remember believing that I had to do things in my old life. I thank him for doing the best he can, and I notice that I'm fascinated. Is this how she dies? Is this how the story ends? And as joy continues to fill me, I find it miraculous that the story is still going on. You can never know the ending, even as it ends. I am very moved at the sight of sky, clouds, andmoonlit trees. I love that I don't miss one moment, one breath, of this amazing life. I wait. And wait. And in the end, he doesn't pull the trigger. He doesn't do that to himself.
我并没有告诉他，我所考虑的一切关乎他会受到的煎熬。他说他必须得这么做，我能理解，我想起我相信晚年要做的事。我要为他已经尽他所能而感谢他，我还注意到，我为此心驰神往。这就是她的死因吗?这就是故事的终结吗?当这种愉快的感觉不停地充斥着全身时，我发现神奇的是故事并未结束。你根本就猜不中结局，即使故事完结了，你也猜不中。我感动于视野所及的蓝天、白云、还有月色下的树林，我很高兴的是，我没有错过这美妙生命中的每时每刻、每次呼吸。我等啊、等啊，等到了最后，他没有按下扳机，他并没有对他自己做那件事。
What we call ”bad“ and what we call ”good“ both come from the same place. The Tao Te Ching says that the source of everything is called ”darkness.“ What a beautiful name (if we must have a name)! Darkness is our source. In the end, it embraces everything. Its nature is love, and in our confusion we name it terror and ugliness, the unacceptable, the unbearable. All our stress results from what we imagine is in that darkness. We imagine darkness as separate from ourselves, and we project something terrible onto it. But in reality, the darkness is alwaysbenevolent.
我们称之为“好”和我们称之为“坏”的事物都来自同一个地方。《道德经》上说，事物的本源称之为“虚无”。这称呼多美(如果我们一定要给个称呼)!虚无是我们的本源，最后，虚无成为了所有事物，它的本质是爱，而我们出于困惑，称它为恐惧、丑恶，认为它无法接受、无法忍受。我们的压力都是源于我们对虚无的想象，我们想象着把虚无从我们身上剥离出来，我们还把一些可怕的事物投影到虚无上面。但是实际上，虚无一直是亲切仁慈的。
Darkness is the mind that doesn't know a thing. This don't-know mind is the center of the universe -- it is the universe -- there's nothing outside it. And it's the gateway to all understanding. Once the darkness is understood, you're clear that nothing is separate from you. No name, no thought, can possibly be true in an ultimate sense. It's all provisional; it's all changing. The dark, the nameless, the unthinkable -- that is what you can absolutely trust. It doesn't change, and it's benevolent. When you realize this, you just have to laugh. There's nothing serious about life or death.
虚无只是一颗不谙世事的心。这颗“未知”的心是宇宙的中心，它就是宇宙，除它以外别无他物，它还是通往全知的必经之路。一旦你懂得虚无，你就会明白，没有什么可以从你身上剥离出来。没有什么名字或思想可以成为终极意义上的真实。一切从未停止，一切一直在变。无知、无名、无思——这是你能完全相信的。这一点从未改变，非常亲切仁慈。当你意识到这点时，你只需一笑置之，是生是死，都不那么重要了。
二、一生的收获
He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family’s cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.
他11岁那时，只要一有机会，就会到他家在新汉普郡湖心岛上的小屋的码头上钓鱼。
On the day before the bass season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and perch with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure and practiced casting. The lure struck the water and caused colored ripples in the sunset, then silver ripples as the moon rose over the lake.
鲈鱼季节开放的前一天晚上，他和父亲早早开始垂钓，用小虫作饵钓太阳鱼和鲈鱼。他系上鱼饵，练习如何抛线。鱼钩击在水面，在夕阳中漾起一片金色的涟漪，夜晚月亮升出湖面时，涟漪就成了银色。
When his fishing rod doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish alongside the dock.
当鱼杆向下弯的时候，他知道线的另一端一定钓到了一条大鱼。父亲看着他技巧纯熟地在码头边沿和鱼周旋，眼神充满赞赏。
Finally, he very gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.
最后他小心翼翼地将筋疲力尽的鱼提出水面。这是他所见过的最大的一条，还是一条鲈鱼。
The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, gills playing back and forth in the moonlight. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M.-- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy.
男孩和他父亲看着这条漂亮的鱼，它的鱼鳃在月光下一张一翕。父亲点燃一根火柴，看了看表。十点了--离开禁还有两个小时。他看了看鱼，又看了看男孩。
“You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.
”你得把它放回去，孩子，“他说道。
“Dad!” cried the boy.
”爸爸!“男孩叫道。
“There will be other fish,” said his father.
”还有其他的鱼嘛，“父亲说道。
“Not as big as this one,” cried the boy.
”但没这么大，“男孩叫道。
He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell by the clarity of his father's voice that the decision was not negotiable. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.
他环视了一遍湖。月光下附近没有其他的渔民或船只。他又看了看他父亲。即使没有人看到他们，更无从得知他们何时钓到了鱼。从父亲不可动摇的语气中，他知道这个决定没有商量余地，他慢慢地将鱼钩从大鲈鱼的唇上取下，然后蹲下将鱼放回水中。
The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a great fish.
鱼儿摆动着它强健的身躯，消失在水中。男孩想，他可能再也看不到这么大的鱼了。
That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. His father’s cabin is still there on the island in the middle of the lake. He takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
那是34年前的事了。现在，男孩是纽约的一个成功的建筑师。他父亲的小屋依然在湖心岛上，他带着自己的儿女仍然在同一个码头上钓鱼。
三、永远的朋友
A friend walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
“别人都走开的时候，朋友仍与你在一起。”
Sometimes in life, you find a special friend;
有时候在生活中，你会找到一个特别的朋友;
Someone who changes your life just by being part of it.
他只是你生活中的一部分内容，却能改变你整个的生活。
Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop;
他会把你逗得开怀大笑;
Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world.
他会让你相信人间有真情。
Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it.
他会让你确信，真的有一扇不加锁的门，在等待着你去开启。
This is Forever Friendship.
这就是永远的友谊。
When you're down, and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirits and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full.
当你失意，当世界变得黯淡与空虚，你真正的朋友会让你振作起来，原本黯淡、空虚的世界顿时变得明亮和充实。
Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times, and the confused times.
你真正的朋友会与你一同度过困难、伤心和烦恼的时刻。
If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows.
你转身走开时，真正的朋友会紧紧相随。
If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on.
你迷失方向时，真正的朋友会引导你，鼓励你。
Your forever friend holds your hand and tells you that everything is going to be okay.
真正的朋友会握着你的手，告诉你一切都会好起来的。
And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and complete, because you need not worry.
如果你找到了这样的朋友，你会快乐，觉得人生完整，因为你无需要再忧虑。
You have a forever friend for life, and forever has no end.
你拥有了一个真正的朋友，永永远远，永无止境。

just had 2 new interns,
and I happen
to be their supervisor.
我所在的团队新来了两个实习生
而我恰好是他们的主管
After today's lunch break,
I saw that one of them
was reading things
on her smartphone,
maybe on some social network,
I guessed.
今天午休过后
我看见他们中的一个正在悠闲地刷手机
我猜想可能是在上社交网络吧
I went to her and said
”There's another document here
needing translation.
Do you have time
to finish it for me?“
我走过去问她
“我这正好有一份文档要翻译
你有时间帮忙完成一下吗”
That document
was not in her
assigned workload.
But I thought
I could let her challenge herself
a little bit with it,
seeing that
she seemed to have time.
这份文档并不在她的工作量里面
不过我看她似乎有空
就打算让她用这锻炼一下
”Yes, I do have time.“
She said,
”But I'm just an intern.“
“有啊” 她说
“可是我只是个实习生啊”
I didn't quite know
what to say back then.
After a while I mumbled
”Right.Yes.“
我当时突然不知道说什么好
愣了一下说道
“哦，也是哦”
And I turned around and left.
然后便转身离开了
I recalled the time
when I was an intern
for the first time.
I, too, managed to finish
my workload so fast,
just likeher.

当时我也像她一样
很快就把自己的工作量完成了
So I asked my supervisor
”Is thereanything else
that I can help?“

have a plan to make.
But she didn't have time.
So she let me do the research
and make a draft for her.
正好
她当时有一份计划要订
但是时间不够
于是就让我先帮她
查查相关资料然后拟个草稿

with the job
but still tried to carry it out
based on my understanding
and make it
as professional as possible.

但还是试着按自己的想法做出来了
尽可能写得专业

was really satisfied
with the draft.
Later, she told me
”You saved me a lot of time.
I didn't need to
create it from scratch.“
主管对这份草稿很满意
她事后说
“你帮我省了不少事
我不用从头做起”
And she told me in details
how should I have
done the plan differently.
I learned a lot
about the operation
in the process.
并且，她还跟我细致地讲了
这份计划应该怎么修改
而我在这个过程当中
学到了很多有用的业务细节
After that
she had come to
trust me like completely.
在那之后
她开始给予我完全的信任
I got my current job
all because
of her recommendation.

也多亏了她的引荐

with a low salary.
But I bought a better future
with my extra labor.

三、HOW DO I LOVE THEE
我是多么爱你
How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth
and breadth and height
My soul can reach,
when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being
and ideal Grace.
I love thee
to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need,
by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely,
as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely,
as they turn from Praise.
I love thee
with the passion put to use
In my old griefs,
and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love
I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,--
I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!
--and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee
better after death.
译文一
我是多么爱你?
让我一一述说
我爱你的深度、宽广、高度
延及到心灵，当不在一起时我感到
生命尽了还有全部的祈祷
我爱你的程度达到每天
不可或缺，就像太阳和烛光一样
我慷慨的爱你，就像人类为正义而战
我纯洁的爱你，就像人类带来的称赞
我爱你用尽我所有的激情
在我暮年悲痛时，我爱你如童年的信仰
我爱你似乎要失去我这个虔诚的信徒--我爱你
就像呼吸、微笑和眼泪融入我的生命。
还有
如果上帝让决定
我死了以后也会加倍的爱你。
译文二
我怎样地爱你?让我逐一细算。
我爱你尽我的心灵所能及到的
深邃、宽广、和高度--正象我探求
玄冥中上帝的存在和深厚的神恩。
我爱你的程度，就象日光和烛焰下
那每天不用说得的需要。我不加思虑地
爱你，就象男子们为正义而斗争;
我纯洁地爱你，象他们在赞美前低头。
我爱你以我童年的信仰;我爱你
以满怀热情，就象往日满腔的辛酸;
我爱你，抵得上那似乎随着消失的圣者
而消逝的爱慕。我爱你以我终生的
呼吸，微笑和泪珠--假使是上帝的
意旨，那么，我死了我还要更加爱你!
译文三
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
吾爱汝深深几许?今且听吾细数之
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
欲言情深深似海，欲状情厚更无垠
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
此心幽幽不可名，此情切切绕魂灵
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
奉祷三生冀神佑，执手一诺许终生
I love thee to the level of everyday's
思君不见日难度，柔情入盏饮朝暮
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
于昼不可无金乌，是夜岂能少龙烛
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
吾心真率无犹疑，坦若君子承浩气
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
吾爱纯粹无污秽，洁如赞歌携颂回
I love thee with the passion put to use
此情灼灼如烈焰，为汝独燃无余烬
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
倘若迟暮生悲痛，梦归童乡拾彼心
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
曾疑应舍白头意，仿若迷徒失圣心
With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath,
而今终得汝相惜，一呼一吸两相系
Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
焕彩重描笑与泪，生生世世不相离
I shall but love thee better after death.
死后神明若问起，有过之而无不及
篇8：高考英语的作文赏析，附翻译
微笑的力量 The Power of Smile
As time goes by, people are being busier and busier with working. In this circumstance, people forget our most excellent skill--smile.
There are a great many kinds of power of smile. First of all, common touch can be showed by a kind smile. Imagine that you go to a company to attend an audition. With a confident smile, you are more likely to answer the question better. Furthermore, smile can eliminate angry. As a philosopher said, smile before you begin to get angry. The last but not the least, it reflects calm of a person when he is in danger or in trouble.
The beneficial aspects cannot be stated completely in this passage. But you can understand its power when you smile.
随着时间的推移，人们在工作上越来越忙。在这种情况下，人们忘记了我们最优秀的技能——微笑。
微笑的力量很多。首先，微笑可以作为平易近人的一种表现。想象一下，你去一个公司参加面试。带着自信的微笑，你有可能会更好地回答问题。此外，微笑可以消除愤怒。一个哲学家说过，在你开始生气之前微笑。最后但并非最不重要的，当一个人处于危险或者麻烦的时候，微笑反映了一个人的镇定。
微笑的好处在这里是无法一一列举的。但是，在你微笑的时候你可以理解它的力量。
感谢父母的爱 Be Grateful to Our Parents
Last week our music teacher taught us a song, named Indebted Heart. Through it I know that we should live with a thankful heart. At that time, I think of my parents. I think they are the first people I should thank. It’s them who give me life. It’s them who give me home. It’s them who bring me up. It’s them who look after me. It’s them who teach me knowledge and live happily. I should thank my parents giving me so much. Maybe I should think how to pay back the love my parents give me. But now I think the best way to be appreciated of my parents is to study well and then being a useful person to the society when I grow up.
上周我们的音乐老师教了我们一首歌，叫感恩的心。通过这首歌我知道我们应该怀着一颗感恩的心去生活。在那时，我想起了我的父母。我认为他们是我最应该感谢的人。是他们给了我生命。是他们给我一个家。是他们抚养我长大。是他们在照顾我。是他们教给我知识，给了我幸福快乐的生活。我要感谢我的父母给了我这么多。也许我应该考虑如何回报父母给我的一切。但现在我觉得感谢我父母的最好的方法就是好好学习，长大后做一个对社会有用的人。
自信的重要性 The Importance of Self-confidence
Currently, self-confidence has become the order of our life, which improves the theory that nothing is more valuable than self-confidence.
It is obvious that self-confidence means trust in one’s ability. If we are full of self-confidence, we’ll have creative power to live and work, helping us success or dreams come true. On the contrary, if we have no confidence in ourselves, there will be little possibilities for us to win. We’ll always face failure.
What’s more, no one can deny another fact that self-confidence gives us light when we walk in the dark and courage when we face stumbling blocks. With self-confidence, we can achieve goals in our life.
如今，自信已经融入了我们的生活中了，这也就证明了没有什么能够比自信更有价值。
很明显，自信意味着对一个人能力的信任。如果我们充满自信，我们在生活和工作中就会有创造力，帮助我们成功或者实现我们的梦想。相反，如果我们对自己没有信心，我们取胜的可能性就很小。我们总是要面对失败。
再者，没有人能否认这样一个事实，当我们游走在黑暗时，自信能能给予我们光明，当我们遭遇不顺时，自信能给予我们勇气。有了自信我们可以实现生活中的目标。
友情 Friendship
There are various emotions in the world. People need valuable emotions which can support them both in mind and in life. Friendship is one of the most vital emotions.
It is not easy to deal with friendship. As for friendship, sometimes you and your friend may meet difficulties. Trust is the most remarkable trait of forever friendship. Trust plays a very important role in daily communication. As the saying goes, “Between friends all is common.” Furthermore, tolerance is also a considerable factor in remaining good friendship. If your friend makes a mistake accidentally, you should have largeness of mind. Friendship is too precious. When we face some misunderstandings, we need to make joint efforts to protect our friendship. We should not give up friendship at random. We should treat our friends as treasures.
Friendship is so pure, clear and beautiful. We cannot be lack of friendship in our life. Try our best to insist our trust in making friends.
世上有很多不同的情感。人们需要宝贵的、在思想和生活上支持他们的感情。友情是其中一种很重要的情感。
维持友谊并不容易。在友谊方面，有时候你和你的朋友都可能会遇到一些困难。信任是友谊地久天长最显著的一个特点。信任在日常交流中起着非常重要的作用。俗话说，“朋友之间不分彼此。”此外，宽容也是维持良好友谊的重要因素。如果你的朋友不小心犯了错误，你应该要有博大的胸怀。友谊是很珍贵的。当我们面对一些误会的时候，我们需要共同努力来保护我们的友谊。我们不应该轻易地放弃友谊。我们应该珍惜我们的朋友。
友谊是纯洁、美丽。我们的生活中不能缺少友谊。在交朋友的时候要尽量坚持信任。
拯救地球 Saving Our Earth
It is very important to deal with the rubbish in cities. For one thing, rubbish may cause a lot of pollution. It may pollute the air, the water and the places we live in. For another, it may do harm to people's health.
So in our city, rubbish is well dealt with. First, it is sorted. Then old newspapers and glass are recycled. The harmful wastes are buried and the waste water is cleaned before it goes into the river. The government has already made laws against pollution caused by rubbish.
But that's not enough. We must all try our. best to prevent rubbish from polluting the environment so as to. save our city and our living place.
处理城市垃圾是一个非常重要的问题。首先，垃圾会导致污染。它会污染空气、水和人们居住的场所。其次，它会危害人类健康。
所以在我们城市中，垃圾得到了妥善处理。我们首先将垃圾分类，然后可将旧报纸和玻璃制品进行再生利用。有害的废物要被掩埋，污水要在净化后才排入河流。政府已经制定了规章，禁止垃圾污染。
仅仅这些还不够。我们大家必须竭尽全力防止拉圾污染环境以及拯救我们的城市，拯救我们的家园。
失败与成功 Failure and Success
Failure is so common in our life. No one can avoid it. When we fail in doing something, we often feel so depressed that we have no interest in other things. Sometimes failure can also make us lose heart. Therefore, no one wants to be a failure.
Success is what we all hope for, because it can bring us a sense of pride and a good reputation. The moment we succeed, we always feel so proud, as if having everything in our hands. If one enjoys his continuous success in his career, he will be famous and worshiped by others.
However, failure is the mother of success. One failure doesn’t mean you can never be successful. It depends on what we do to deal with failure. Those who are always afraid of failure and can’t go through it will never win. But as long as we can get some lessons and experience from our failure, we’ll be sure to succeed.
失败是生活中是很常见的。没有人能避免失败。当我们做某事失败的时候，我们经常觉得很沮丧，而提不起兴趣去做其他的事情。有时失败会使我们丧失信心。所以，没有人想成为失败者。
成功是我们所希望的，因为它能够给我们带来的自豪感和良好的信誉。成功的那一刻我们都感到很自豪，就好像我们拥有了一切。如果一个人喜欢在他的职业生涯中不断取得成功，他就会出名，被别人崇拜。
不过，失败是成功之母。一次失败并不意味着你永远不能成功。这取决于我们如何面对失败。那些总是害怕失败，不能克服这个心理的人永远都不会成功。但只要我们能吸取教训，我们一定会成功的。
珍惜时间 Cherish Time
If you ask me what is the most precious, I would say that it’s time. Time is something once lost, you could never have again. Therefore, we should cherish it and spend it in meaningful things. However, many people do too many meaningless things to kill their time, such as playing computer, watching TV, or gossiping. When you do these things, the time has long been unwittingly flowed away. In my opinion, the best way to make full use of time is planning your time rationally and sticking the plan firmly. Spending more time on something significant not only will make your life fulfilling, but also will give you a sense of accomplishment. Instead, killing your time with meaningless things would bring you depression even despair. Remember that those who abandon time will be also abandoned by time.
如果你问我什么东西是最宝贵的，我会说是时间。它是你一旦失去就再也得不到的东西。因此，我们都应该学会珍惜时间，把时间用在有意义的事情上。但是，很多人却做了许多无意义的事情来消磨时光，比如玩电脑、看电视或者说闲话。当你在做这些事情的时候，时间早已在不知不觉间流走了。在我看来，最好的珍惜时间的做法是合理安排时间，并坚决按照计划行事。把时间用在有意义的事情上，不仅会让你的生活更充实，也会给你带来成就感。相反，若是用那些无聊的事情消磨时间，则可能会让你觉得沮丧甚至绝望。记住，抛弃时间的人，时间也抛弃他。
篇9：适合在高中生课堂上的英语美文赏析，附翻译
一、《做你想做的梦》
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!
在一生有多少这样的时刻：我们对一个人朝思暮想，只想一把把他们从梦中拉出来，真切的拥抱一回!
When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
一扇通往幸福的门关闭了，另一扇幸福之门打开了，可有多少次啊，我们徘徊在那扇关闭的门前，却忽略了那扇早已为我们开启的新的幸福之门。
Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.
不要以貌取人，外貌可能会欺骗你;不要追逐财富，财富会消失的。去寻找那个让你笑口常开的人吧，一个微笑就可以使暗淡的日子豁然开朗。去追寻那个令你心灵愉悦的人吧!
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
做你想做的梦，去你想去的地方，成为你想成为的人，因为你只有一次生命和一次机会去做你想做的事情。
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
愿幸福与你永伴，使你亲切可爱;愿你历经磨难，使你坚韧不拔;愿你痛彻心肺，使你通情达理，愿你充满希望，使你幸福快乐。
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
世界上最幸福的人并不一定拥有最好的东西，他们只是最充分利用、珍惜了他们生命中的一切。
Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.
爱始于微笑，育于亲吻，终于流泪。
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
五彩缤纷的明天常常建立在对过去的遗忘之上。只有对过去的失败和伤痛不再耿耿于怀，生活才会变得更加美好。
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
当你呱呱落地、啼哭不已时，周围的人却笑逐颜开;要认真的生活，只有这样，当你走到生命的尽头时，你才会含笑而眠，而周围的人却痛哭不已。
二、《阳光下的时光》
“…I was rich, if not in money, in sunny hours and summer days.”----- Henry David Thoreau.
“……我虽然不富甲天下，却拥有无数个艳阳天和夏日。”----亨利·大卫·梭罗
When Thoreau wrote that line, he was thinking of the Walden. Pond he knew as a boy.
写这句话时，梭罗想起孩提时代的瓦尔登湖。
Woodchoppers and the Iron Horse had not yet greatly damaged the beauty of its setting. A boy could go to the pond and lie on his back against the seat of a boat, lazily drifting from shore to shore while the loons dived and the swallows dipped around him. Thoreau loved to recall such sunny hours and summer days “when idleness was the most attractive and productive business.”
当时伐木者和火车尚未严重破坏湖畔的美丽景致。小男孩可以走向湖中，仰卧小舟。自一岸缓缓漂向另一岸，周遭有鸟儿戏水，燕子翻飞。梭罗喜欢回忆这样的艳阳天和夏日，“慵懒是最迷人也是最具生产力的事情!”
I too was a boy in love with a pond, rich in sunny hours and summer days. Sun and summer are still what they always were, but the boy and the pond changed. The boy, who is now a man, no longer find much time for idle drifting. The pond has been annexed by a great city. The swamps where herons once hunted are now drained and filled with houses. The bay where water lilies quietly floated is now a harbor for motor boats. In short, everything that the boy loved no longer exists----except in the man's memory of it.
我也曾经是热爱湖塘的小男孩，拥有无数个艳阳天与夏日。如今阳光、夏日依旧，男孩和湖塘却已改变。那男孩已长大成人，不再有那么多时间泛舟湖上。而湖塘也为大城市所并。曾有苍鹭觅食的沼泽，如今已枯竭殆尽，上面盖满了房舍。睡莲静静漂浮的湖湾。现在成了汽艇的避风港。总之，男孩所爱的一切已不复存在----只留在人们的回忆中。
Some people insist that only today and tomorrow matter. But how much poorer we would be if we really lived by that rule! So much of what we do today is frivolous and futile and soon forgotten. So much of what we hope to do tomorrow never happens.
有些人坚持认为只有今日和明日才是重要的，可是如果真的照此生活，我们将是何其可怜!许多今日我们做的事徒劳不足取的，很快就会被忘记。许多我们期待明天将要做的事却从来没有发生过。
The past is the bank in which we store our most valuable possession: the memories that give meaning and depth to our lives.
过去是一所银行。我们将最可贵的财产---记忆珍藏其中。记忆赐予我们生命的意义和深度。
Those who truly treasure the past will not bemoan the passing of the good old days, because days enshrined in memory are never lost. Death itself is powerless to still a remembered voice or erase a remembered smile. And for one boy who is now a man, there is a pond which neither time nor tide can change, where he can still spend a quite hour in the sun.
真正珍惜过去的人，不会悲叹旧日美好时光的逝去。因为藏于记忆中的时光永不流失。死亡本身无法止住一个记忆中的声音，或擦除一个记忆中的微笑。对现已长大成人的那个男孩来说，那儿将有一个湖塘不会因时间和潮汐而改变，可以让他继续在阳光下享受安静时光。
三、《面朝大海，春暖花开》

times… do not interrupt me… listen to me

你要紧挨着我,如同我当初帮着你展开人生一样的了解我,帮我….扶我一把,用爱跟耐心帮我走完人生…我将用微笑和我始终不变无边无际的爱来回报你
I love you son…

二、让我们微笑吧 Let Us Laugh
The thing that goes the farthest toward making life worthwhile, that costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
那最能赋予生命价值、代价最廉而回报最多的东西，不过一个令人心畅的微笑而已。
The smile that bubbles from the heart that loves its fellow men, will drive away the clouds of gloom and coax the Sun again.
由衷地热爱同胞的微笑，会驱走心头阴郁的乌云，心底收获一轮夕阳。
It's full of worth and goodness, too, with manly kindness blent; it's worth a million dollars, and it doesn't cost a cent.
它充满价值和美好，混合着坚毅的仁爱之心;它价值连城却不花一文。
There is no room for sadness when we see a cheery smile; It always has the same good look; it's never out of style; It nerves us on to try again when failure makes us blue;
当我们看到喜悦的微笑，忧伤就会一扫而光;它始终面容姣好，永不落伍;失败令我们沮丧之时，它鼓励我们再次尝试;
The dimples of encouragement are good for me and you.It pays the highest interest - for it is merely lent;
鼓励的笑靥于你我大有裨益。它支付的利息高昂无比──只因它是种借贷形式;
It's worth a million dollars, and it doesn't cost a cent.
它价值连城却不花一文。
A smile comes very easy - you can wrinkle up with cheer. A hundred times before you can squeeze out a salty tear. It ripples out, moreover, to the heartstrings that will tug, and always leaves an echo that is very like a hug.
来一个微笑很容易──嘴角欢快翘起来，你能百次微笑，可难得挤出一滴泪;它的涟漪深深波及心弦，总会留下反响，宛若拥抱。
So, smile away! Folks understand what by a smile is meant. It's worth a million dollars, and it doesn't cost a cent.
继续微笑吧!谁都懂得它意味着什么。它价值连城却不花一文。
三、沉默 Slience
无声即沉默。沉默有各种各样——
An empty head or a blank mind which leads to speechlessness--that is silence.
腹中空泛，思想一片苍白，故无言可发，这是沉默。
Enthusiasm fades like dying embers and thus leads to cynicism and indifference to life, which arouses neither happiness nor sadness, neither worries nor anger, and which costs people their interest in and desire for anything--that is silence.
热情已如柴薪尽燃，故而冷漠处世，无喜无悲，无忧无愤，对人世的一切都失去兴趣和欲望，这也是沉默。
Despite all the experiences of love and hate, of disorientation and reorientation, of order-giving that was answered by hundreds and call-issuing that was not answered by a single soul, there is not a word uttered, but only a clam eye that watches on this world--that is also silence.
有过爱，有过恨，有过迷茫，有过颖悟，有过一呼百应的呐喊，有过得不到回报的呼唤，然而却收口如瓶，只是平静地冷眼看世界，这是沉默。
Worries and sufferings, tastes of changes and vicissitudes of the world, footprints left in mountains and valleys and noises of rivers and oceans cherished in the heart are all but hidden unrevealed--that is still silence.
饱经忧患，阅尽人生百态，胸有千山万壑的屐痕，有江河湖海的涛声，然而却深思不语，这也是沉默。
Either an invaluable Italian violin or a reed whistle cut out casually would remain silent if they are not played, although the connotations of their silences differ greatly. For even though they are never touched by anybody, you can still imagine the vastly different sounds they can possibly produce.
一把价值连城意大利小提琴，和一只被随手削出的芦笛，不去触动它们，便都是沉默，但沉默的内涵却并不一样，即便永远不在有人去触动它们，你依然可以想象听见它们可能发出的绝然不同的鸣响。
A flawless jade ornament, or a coarse, gross brick will always remain silent if it is left untouched, but who can draw an equal sign between them?
一块莹洁无暇的美玉，和一块粗糙的土砖，放在那里也都是沉默。然而谁能把它们所代表的内容划一个等号呢?
Indeed, for a living being there is no such thing as true silence, for silence itself is a revelation of the mind and the heart, an echo of the soul of a different form.
其实，对活着的生命而言，真正的沉默是不存在的。沉默本身也是一种思想和心境的流露，是灵魂的另一种形式的回声。
Some people use silence as a disguise of the emptiness of the head.
有的人以沉默掩饰思想的空虚。
Some use it as a means to depict their disorientation and melancholy.
有的人以沉默叙述迷茫和惆怅。
And some use it as a way of expressing their angers and sorrows.
有的人以沉默表达内心的愤怒和忧伤。
Silence usually is ephemeral. It reminds one of the bronze bells dangling from a pagoda's eaves; on windless days they are a decoration upon the age-weathered beauty, but with wind they give out wonderful tinkling and jingling metallurgic sounds, as if echoing age-old stories of long, long ago...
沉默常常是暂时的。就像古塔檐角下的铜铃，无风时，它们只是一种古色古香的装饰，一起风，它们便会发出奇妙的金属音响，似乎是许多古老故事的悠远的回声……
Do you not think the same of silent people?
沉默的人们不也一样?
They say that ”silence is golden“, but of what nature is this ”gold“? It can include integrity, honesty and kindness; it can stand for indifference to and detachment from fame and fortune; but it can also act as an excuse for hypocrisy, slyness and cowardice... the glittering of gold may not necessarily be the most brilliant lustre in the world.
“沉默是金”，是怎样的一种“金”呢? 这个“金”字中，可以包含正直、善良，可以代表淡泊、超脱，也可以是虚伪、圆滑、怯懦的一种托辞……金子的光泽，未必是世界上最动人的光泽。
Can it be that permanent silence is only represented by death?
是不是只有死亡才是永远的沉默?
Perhaps even death cannot represent true silence, for the carrier of the soul can turn into dust, so that the sincere and wise voices from the bottom of the heart will trigger long-lasting echoes in the seas of human hearts...
也许，死亡也未必是真正的沉默，灵魂的载体可以化为尘土，那些真诚睿智的心声，却会长久地在人心的海洋中引起悠长的回声……

A Grain of Sand 一粒沙子
William Blake/威廉.布莱克
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild fllower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
从一粒沙子看到一个世界，
从一朵野花看到一个天堂，
把握在你手心里的就是无限，
永恒也就消融于一个时辰
(三)Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
雪夜林畔驻马
By Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
雪夜林畔驻马
罗伯特.弗罗斯特
我想我知道这是谁的树林.
他的家虽在那边乡村;
他看不到我驻足在此地,
伫望他的树林白雪无垠.
我的小马一定会觉得离奇,
停留于旷无农舍之地,
在这树林和冰湖中间
一年中最昏暗的冬夕.
它将它的佩铃朗朗一牵
问我有没有弄错了地点.
此外但闻微风的拂吹
和纷如鹅毛的雪片
这树林真可爱,黝黑而深邃.
可是我还要赶好几英里路才能安睡,
还要赶好几英里才能安睡.
(四)ALWAYS HAVE A DREAM 总是有一个梦想
Forget about the days when it's been cloudy. But don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you have been defeated. But don't forget the victories you have won.
Forget about the misfortunes you have encountered. But don't forget the times your luck has turned.
Forget about the days when you have been lonely. But don't forget the friendly smiles you have seen.
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right. But don't forget to always have a dream.
忘掉你失意的日子，但不要忘记黄金的时光。
忘掉你的一次次失败，但不要忘记你夺取的胜利。
忘掉你遭遇的不幸，但不要忘记你的时来运转。
忘掉你的孤独日子，但不要忘记你得到的友善微笑。
忘掉你没有得以顺利实施的计划，但不要放弃你的梦想
(五)THE CUCKOO布谷鸟
In April, 四月里，
Come he will, 它就来了，
In May, 五月里，
Sing all day, 整天吟唱多逍遥，
In June, 六月里，
Change his tune, 它在改变曲调，
In July, 七月里，
Prepare to fly, 准备飞翔，
In August, 八月里，
Go he must! 它就得离去了!
(六)oats Sail On The Rivers
Boats sail on the rivers, 小舟在河上航行，
And ships sail on the seas; 大船在海中操轮，
But clouds that sail across the sky, 然而白云飘过天空时，
Are prettier far than these. 比这些更为悦人。
(七)
There are bridges on the rivers, 河上有桥，
As pretty as you please; 如你所愿的那么悦目;
But the bow that bridges heaven, 然而横跨在穹苍的长虹，
And overtops the trees, 却比树梢更高，
And builds a road from earth to sky, 而能建筑一条通行天际的道路，
Is prettier far than these. 比这些更为美好。
(八)
Hold fast to dreams 紧紧抓住梦想，
For if dreams die 梦想若是消亡
Life is a broken-winged bird 生命就象鸟儿折了翅膀
That can never fly. 再也不能飞翔
Hold fast to dreams 紧紧抓住梦想，
For when dreams go 梦想若是消丧
Life is a barren field 生命就象贫瘠的荒野，
Frozen only with snow 雪覆冰封，万物不生
