Dog is my favorite animal. The reason why I like it most is because it’s very competent. Dog is the best friend for mankind. It is also the best companion for the old people. The dog can feel the human nature. So many old people will raise dogs if their children are not with them. The old can give their love for their children to the dog to make themselves feel warmly. I believe the seeing eye dog is very famous. They are special dogs. Those dogs will guide their owners whose eyes is blind to go the correct way. See, I say dogs are very competent.
我最喜欢的动物是狗。我最喜欢它的原因是因为它很能干。狗是人类的朋友。它也是老人们的伴侣。狗是通人性的。如果他们的孩子不在他们身边，很多老年人会养狗。老年人可以把对他们孩子的爱放到狗狗的身上，这也能温暖他们的心。导盲犬是非常有名的。他们是特殊的狗。这些狗会引导眼睛看不见的主人找到正确的路。看，我就说狗狗是非常能干的。

玩牌游戏
By Norman Cousins
诺曼·卡曾斯
Ever since I was old enough to read books on philosophy, I have been intrigued by the discussions on the nature of man. The philosophers have been debating for years about whether man is primarily good or primarily evil, whether he is primarily altruistic or selfish, cooperative or combative, gregarious or self-centered, whether he enjoys free will or whether everything is predetermined.
自从能够看懂哲学书开始，有关人性的讨论就激起了我浓厚的兴趣。人性是善还是恶、是利他还是利己、是合作还是竞争、是群居还是以自我为中心、是相信自由意志还是相信宿命，这些是哲学家们多少年来一直争论不休的话题。
As far back as the Socratic dialogues in Plato, and even before that, man has been baffled about himself. He knows he is capable of great and noble deeds, but then he is oppressed by the evidence of great wrongdoing.
人类一直对自身感到困惑，这可以追溯到柏拉图与苏格拉底的对活，甚至更早时期。人类知道自己拥有做出伟大而高尚的事情的能力，然而却又被犯下大罪的证据所压迫。
And so he wonders. I don’t presume to be able to resolve the contradictions. In fact, I don’t think we have to. It seems to me that the debate over good and evil in man, over free will and determinism, and over all the other contradictions—it seems to me that this debate is a futile one.
因此，他困惑不已。对于这种矛盾是否能够解决，我并不敢断言。然而，事实上，人们没有必要非要化解这种矛盾。人是两面性的动物，因此，我认为争论人性善或恶、意志自由或宿命以及其他一切矛盾都是徒劳无益的。
For man is a creature of dualism. He is both good and evil, both altruistic and selfish. He enjoys free will to the extent that he can make decisions in life, but he can’t change his chemistry or his relatives or his physical endowments—all of which were determined for him at birth.
人既有善良的一面，也有邪恶的一面;既有利他的一面，也有利己的一面。人们享受着能够在生活中做出决定的自由意志，然而却无法改变与生俱来的基因、亲属或体征。
And rather than speculate over which side of him is dominant, he might do well to consider what the contradictions and circumstances are that tend to bring out the good or evil, that enable him to be a nobler and responsible member of the human race.
与其思索哪一方面主导着人性，还不如思索人之所以善良或邪恶的矛盾和环境，从而让人成为人类群体中具有高尚品质和责任感的人。
And so far as free will and determinism are concerned, something I heard in India on a recent visit might be worth passing along. Free will and determinism, I was told, are like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you represents determinism. The way you play your hand represent free will.
在近期访问次大陆期间，我在印度听到了一些事情，它们在自由意志和宿命论方面的价值是值得一提的。当地人告诉我，自由意志和宿命论就像玩纸牌游戏，宿命论就是发牌的手，而自由意志就是打牌的方式。
Now where does all this leave us? It seems to me that we ought to attempt to bring about and safeguard those conditions that tend to develop the best in man. We know, for example, that the existence of fear and man’s inability to cope with fear bring about the worst in him.
而今，这一切把我们带到了什么地方?我认为，那些能够培养人类最优秀品质的环境，是我们应该努力去创造和保护的。例如，我们知道恐惧感和无法克服恐惧的意识能够导致人性产生最邪恶的东西
We know that what is true of man on a small scale can be true of society on a large scale. And today the conditions of fear in the world are, I’m afraid, affecting men everywhere.
我们同样知道，个人的真实状况经过放大就会成为社会的真实状况。如今，世界各个地方的人仍然遭受着恐惧因素的影响。
More than twenty-three hundred years ago, the Greek world, which had attained tremendous heights of creative intelligence and achievement, disintegrated under the pressure of fear. Today, too, if we read the signs correctly, there is fear everywhere.
恐惧瓦解了希腊文明，然而在两千三百多年前，它具有创造性的智慧和成就已经达到了非凡的高度。同样，如果我在环球旅行时的所见不虚的话
There is fear that the human race has exhausted its margin for error and that we are sliding into another great conflict that will cancel out thousands of years of human progress. And people are fearful because they don’t want to lose the things that are more important than peace itself—moral, democratic, and spiritual values.
人类正在滑向一场大战，这场战争将会把人类数千年取得的进步毁之一旦，这是由人类犯错底线被突破而导致的恐惧所引起的。这是因为，对于人类而言，道德、民主和精神比和平更重要。
The problem confronting us today is far more serious than the destiny of any political system or even of any nation.
人类的命运是我们今天所面临的问题，这比任何政治体制和任何民族的命运更为重要。
The problem is the destiny of man: first, whether we can make this planet safe for man; second, whether we can make it fit for man.
首先，我们是否能够把地球建人类的安全之所;其次，我们是否能够把地球建成适宜人类居住的地方。
This I believe—that man today has all the resources to shatter his fears and go on to the greatest golden age in history, an age which will provide the conditions for human growth and for the development of the good that resides within man, whether in his individual or his collective being.
我相信，对于消除恐惧并走向历史上最伟大的黄金时代，人类拥有各种各样的办法。不管人是作为个体还是人类群体的一员，这个时代都将会为人类的进步和善良本性的形成提供条迹然后，人类只需要理性地调动智慧和良知，就可以运用这些办法了。真理渗透在我们的生活中。站在海岸上，观看颠簸_之上的船帆，是一种乐趣;站在城堡垛口，观看激战中的战场，也是一种乐趣;
And he has only to mobilize his rational intelligence and his conscience to put these resources to work.
然而，什么也比不上站在真理的前哨，洞察山谷中的谬误、彷徨、迷雾与风暴，这更令人欢欣。

A sort of unselfish selfishness
by WARD GREENE
When a man is ten, he has a boy's faith in almost everthing: even Santa Claus is a belief he is not quite ready to give up so long as there is a chance the old gentleman may really live and deliver. When a man is twenty, he is closer to compete disillusion and stronger conviction than he will probably ever be in his life.
This is the age of atheists and agnostics; it is also the age of martyrs. Jesus Christ must have been a very young man when he died on the cross; Joan of Arc, they say, was only nineteen as the flames consumed her. It is in the later years---oh, anywhere from thirty to fifty---that a man at some time stands with the tatters of his hopes and dreams fallen from him and asks himself:”What, indeed, do i believe?“
He is very apt, then, to cling to the words of other men who have written for him the shadow signposts that come as anything to poiting pathways he found best in the past and roads he will trust on the way ahead. These words may be mere copybook maxims: that honesty is the best policy, or haste makes waste. They may be alone from Shakespeare---
”To thine own self be true“---or from the bible---”All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them“---or from the poets” i myself am Heaven and Hell_. They may seem a sort of hodgepodge in a man's mind, yet they can make a pattern not inconsistent and not weak.
So if i believe that i myself am Heaven and Hell, that anything less than honesty to myself and others is a boomerang on them and me; if my translation of the Golden Rule is simple acts of kindness and understanding and compassion, practiced in the hope that they will be shown to me, then i have a way of life that is a sort of unselfish selfishness. The bald statement may sound cynical, but if i can follow that way, i shall not be too unhappy here and i may face death with regret but an untroubled face and a stout heart.
But there are blocks and pitfalls in a way of life, even assuming that a man can adhere to it steadfastly despite his own inclinations to deviate. These obstacles are the work other men who adhere to other ways. Hence kindness and compassion are not enough.
A man, i believe, must have courage and fortitude and a burning sense of justice, too. There are times we should turn the other cheek, but there are likewise times when we must fight the good fight. When? Well, if a fellow can't find the answer on the signposts or in his heart, i guess he has just got to pray.
励志英语小短文带翻译 第4篇
When someone looks into your eyes they should see something alive within you. Having a dream is like owning a lighthouse1 which directs you on your journey.
At every turn we come across its mystery. At each new level we become more of the person we were meant to become. In lonely times, when we pass through a storm of disappointment, we find our faith is unshaken, our strength still strong.
Believe in your faith. Set the vision before your eyes. Write down your most sincere dreams and when the opportunity comes, step into your dream. It may take one season or more, but the result is the same. Make big dreams and then go out and make them realities. The highest hopes of the dreamer are revealed with every step taken in their journey to the impossible. For a season we must protect the dream so that it can grow quietly on the inside. But if we tenderly care for our deepest expectations, slowly but surely the dream will become new life.
Dreaming is an act of faith. The light of your expectations will cast off the shadows of a disbelieving world. God has given us the dreamer as a gift to light an unbelieving world.
Find your treasure within and cherish2 it. Tomorrow is waiting for you to take the first step.
翻译：梦想的力量
别人看你的眼睛时,他应当体会到你内心的活力。怀揣梦想就像是拥有一座引领你前行的灯塔。
每个转折关头,它给我们带来奇迹。每个新的起点,我们脱胎换骨,焕然一新。孤独中我们挺过失望的阴霾,发现我们的信念不曾动摇,我们的力量依然强大。
秉持信念,期盼未来。许下你最真诚的梦想,一旦机会来临,就为之拼搏。也许要花一季甚或更多的时间,但结局不会改变。立大志,倾全力,成现实。前途未卜,唯有一步一个脚印,梦想者的至高希冀才会实现。我们必须珍存梦想,给它一季的保护,让它在内心悄然生发。然而我们还得温柔呵护我们内心至深的期许,慢慢地梦想必将成就新的生命。
梦想是实现信仰的第一步。你的期待熠熠光辉,它会驱逐不信的阴影。上帝赋予我们梦想的天资,去点亮不曾确信的世界。让梦想的财富寄于心中,珍爱它,明天正等着你跨出第一步。

The Law of the Heart
by J. George Frederick
J.乔治?弗雷德里克
At long last I have come to a rather simple point as to what I believe. I believe in what I choose to call “The Law of the Heart”.
最终，我明白可以将自己的信仰总结为一点，即所谓的“心脏定律”。
In the medical world this phrase, The Law of the Heart, means the great discovery by Professor Ernest Henry Starling of the precise method by which the heart accelerates and retards itself through the heart muscle; also the manner in which it accomplishes the vital twoway exchange of fluids between the bloodstream and the body tissues.
这个短语是医学界欧内斯特?亨利?斯塔林教授的一项伟大发现，是证明心脏跳动在心肌作用下加快和减弱的精确方法;同时，他还发现，心脏进行的血液和体液相互渗透，对生命的存活而言是极其重要。人与人之间需要有重要的情感双向交流，这是我的人生观。
In my view of life there is also supremely needful a vital twoway exchange of heart qualities between human beings. Without it the human spirit and relationship to other spirits is lifeless and dangerous. Dependence on head qualities is mechanical and empty, just as we have discovered that babies do not thrive, even with technically expert nursing care, without mother love.
如果没有这种交流，那么一个人的灵魂及与他人的关系就会死气沉沉，危机重重。依赖理智会使人变得机械而空虚，正如我们发现的缺乏母爱的婴儿，即使在专业的技术护理下，也无法茁壮成长。
The Law of the Heart, in my belief, then, means that I can achieve greatest physical and mental health, and have the most constructive relations with life and people, if my matured emotional self dominates my motives and actions. When, after due consultation with my head, the true heart speaks, it is the finest and most mellowed judgment that I, human creature, am capable of. Man is indivisible, I believe; he is a whole; mind, spirit, body—but with only one real, fully representative voice—the voice of the heart.
我认为，心脏定律的涵义就是，如果我的感情成熟到可以支配自己的动机和行为，那就能达到身心健康的最佳状态，也就可以在生活中与他人建立最具建设性的关系。在与头脑适当地协商后，我所表达出的真正心声便是我作为人所能做出的最绝妙、最成熟的判断。我坚信，人是一个不可分割的整体，是由心灵、精神、肉体构成的一个整体，但唯有心灵之声才是充分代表人类思想的真实声音。
There is, in my belief, very suggestive symbolism in the means by which the Law of the Heart operates. We know that man needs to give others weaker, less fortunate, a transfusion of his blood as proof of fellowship. We know that hearts and arteries which are hard and unresponsive can bring the retribution of sudden death. We know that hearts which beat in unison with the problems, pains, miseries and needs of others know celestial music which can never be known to those who do not.
在我看来，心脏定律的作用方式充满了启发性与象征性。我们知道，为证明我们对其他虚弱、不幸之人的友善，我们需要给他们输血。我们了解，心脏和动脉僵硬且毫无反应时，就会导致猝死。我们明白，当心脏随着他人的困难、痛苦、不幸与需求而跳动时
We know that hearts capable of quickened pulse at the sight of beauty and nobility, courage and sacrifice, love and tenderness, a child or a sunset, achieve intensities of living—a song in their hearts—unknown to others. We know that those who choke off the heart’s native impulses will likely bring on a coronary thrombosis of obstructed emotion which can cripple.
我们就能领略到无此善心者所无从知晓的天籁之音;面对美丽、高贵、勇敢、奉献、关爱、温暖、孩子或夕阳时，心跳就会加快，并因此获得了生活的激情。那是他们的心灵之歌。是他人所不得而知的事物。我们都知道，人若是抑制心灵本能的冲动，就很可能会因内心情感的压抑，而导致冠心病的突发，甚至造成残废。
The first Law of the Heart, I feel sure, is to pulsate, to love. To fail to pulsate and love is swift and certain spiritual death. There are far, far too many of us who seem obsessed with self, unable or unwilling to love. The second Law of the Heart, I believe, is to give, and forgive, to sacrifice. The heart is the great supplier and giver to every remote atom in the body. The heart muscle is the strongest in the whole body.
我确信，心脏定律的第一条便是心跳，是爱。没有了心跳，不再去爱，精神无疑就会迅速衰竭。我们当中有太多的人总是以自我为中心，不能或不愿意去爱。我坚信，心脏定律的第二条是付出、宽恕和牺牲。心脏是身体每一个微小细胞原的能量供给中心，而整个身体中，最强韧的部分便是心肌。
These things I know and believe, and they provide me with the foundation of what I call my humanistic philosophy of life. It works for me. I feel close to the earth with it. Yet face uplifted. The heart is closer to everlasting reality, although I am fully aware that I must not let raw emotion masquerade as a heart quality, and that the immature heart can make serious errors. The educated, matured heart is, to my belief, not only the noblest thing in man but also the great hope of the world.
我的人道主义生活哲学正是基于这些我所知道并相信的知识。它们为我所用。也正因为有它，我才感觉自己能更接近现实，昂首面对生活。我的心更接近永恒的现实，虽然我完全明白，不能将虚伪的粗俗情感当成心灵的特质，而且心灵不成熟便易于导致严重的错误。我相信，拥有良好的教育及成熟的心灵，不仅是人类最为高贵的品质，也是世界的伟大希望。

Successful people often say never give up. They are sincerely trying to motivate others to success.
那些成功人士经常说绝不放弃。他们真诚地激励别人成功。
It can be a really hard experience for some, so when they do reach their goal, they are almost in shock. There is no need to wade through crocodile-infested waters when there is a safe bridge to use. Sheer hard work and determination is great, but not at the expense of enjoyment and a sense of fulfillment along the journey. So staying motivated is important to maintain this exciting path to success. It doesn’t matter how far away your outcome6 is, because you are going to enjoy the trip.

译文：世界上最珍贵的是什么?有人说时间，健康，黄金等等。我认为最宝贵的是生命，因为每个人只有一次生命。
To cross the road, look around. Not on the road to play and run. See the red light to stop, and see the green light to go. Let us follow traffic safety, to minimize traffic accidents, so traffic will never disappear.
译文：过马路时，环顾四周。不在路上玩耍和奔跑。看到红灯停，看到绿灯走。让我们遵循交通安全，尽量减少交通事故，使交通永远不会消失。
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,narrowly contained within its banks,and rushing passionately past boulders and over the river grows wider,the banks recede,the waters flow more quietly,and in the end,without any visible break,they become merged in the sea,and painlessly lose their individual being.
译文：人的生命应当像河流,开始是涓涓细流,受两岸的而十分狭窄,尔后奔腾咆哮,翻过危岩,飞越瀑布,河面渐渐开阔,河岸也随之向两边隐去,最后水流平缓,森森无际,汇入大海之中,个人就这样毫无痛苦地消失了。
”Can't“ is the worst word that can be written or spoken， and can do more harm than lying. Many strong spirits have been broken by it. It springs from the lips of thoughtless people each morning and robs us of the courage we need that day. It rings in our ears like a timely sent warning and laughs when we fall by the way. ”
译文：“不行”是我们所能写出和说出的最糟的词，它比谎言更具破坏力。许多坚强的人都曾被它打败。每天早上它被那些鲁莽的人从口中吐出，剥夺了我们一天该有的勇气。它像一个时刻徘徊在我们耳边的警告，当我们跌倒时它就会立即出来嘲笑我们。
There is no need to wade through crocodile-infested waters when there is a safe bridge to use. Sheer hard work and determination is great, but not at the expense of enjoyment and a sense of fulfillment along the journey. So staying motivated is important to maintain this exciting path to success. It doesn't matter how far away your out come is, because you are going to enjoy the trip.

励志英语小短文带翻译 第9篇
Tucked away in our subconsciousness is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the moment. We are traveling by train. Out the windows, we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing, of cattle grazing on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon row of corn ad wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hillsides, of city skylines and village halls.
But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering---waiting, waiting, waiting for the station.
“When we reach the station, that will be it!” we cry. “When I’m 18.” “When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!” “When I put the last kid through college.” “When I have paid off the mortgage!” “When I get a promotion.” “When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live happily ever after!”
Sooner or later, we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us.
It isn’t the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today.
So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. The station will come soon enough.
品味现在
我们的潜意识里藏着一派田园诗般的风光! 我们仿佛身处一次横贯大陆的漫漫旅程之中! 乘着火车, 我们领略着窗外流动的景色：附近高速公路上奔驰的汽车、十字路口处招手的孩童、远山上吃草的牛群、源源不断地从电厂排放出的烟尘、一片片的玉米和小麦、平原与山谷、群山与绵延的丘陵、天空映衬下城市的轮廓, 以及乡间的庄园宅第!
然而我们心里想得最多的却是最终的目的地! 在某一天的某一时刻, 我们将会抵达进站! 迎接我们的将是乐队和飘舞的彩旗! 一旦到了那儿, 多少美梦将成为现实, 我们的生活也将变得完整, 如同一块理好了的拼图! 可是我们现在在过道里不耐烦地踱来踱去, 咒骂火车的拖拖拉拉! 我们期待着, 期待着, 期待着火车进站的那一刻!
“当我们到站的时候, 一切就都好了! ”我们呼喊着! “当我18岁的时候! ”“当我有了一辆新450SL奔驰的时候! ”“当我供最小的孩子念完大学的时候! ”“当我偿清贷款的时候! ”“当我官升高任的时候! ”“当我到了退休的时候, 就可以从此过上幸福的生活啦! ”
可是我们终究会认识到人生的旅途中并没有车站, 也没有能够“一到永逸”的地方!生活的真正乐趣在于旅行的过程, 而车站不过是个梦, 它始终遥遥领先于我们!
真正令人发疯的不是今日的负担, 而是对昨日的悔恨及对明日的恐惧! 悔恨与恐惧是一对孪生窃贼, 将今天从你我身边偷走!
那么就不要在过道里徘徊吧, 别老惦记着你离车站还有多远! 何不换一种活法, 将更多的高山攀爬, 多吃点儿冰淇淋甜甜嘴巴, 经常光着脚板儿溜达, 在更多的河流里畅游, 多看看夕阳西下, 多点欢笑哈哈, 少让泪水滴答! 生活得一边过一边瞧! 车站就会很快到达!

An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, “Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young.”

于是，老妇很生气，因为老猫没有把老鼠咬死。她开始打这只猫，猫说：“不要打你的老仆人，我已经为你服务了很多年，而且还愿意为你效劳，但是，我实在太老了，对年纪大的不要这么无情，要记住老年人在年青时所做过的有益的事情。”

But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.

People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve millions of books, documents and records.
Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations1 of government officials and the events during wars?
We do it because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen. Sometimes, past records, when understood in the right way, can help us decide what to do and what not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the records of human history.
From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations of youth. History records the suffering, the self-denial2, the devotion, and the heroic deeds of people in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really need peace.
The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those who promote war, and inspiration to those who seek peace.
In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday’s records can keep us from repeating yesterday’s mistakes. And from the pieces of mosaic4 assembled5 by historians come the great murals6 which represent the progress of mankind.

我们为什么要有图书馆呢？这些文献和史书有何用处呢? 我们为什么要记载并保存人类的行为、政府官员的谈判和战争中的事件呢？
我们这么做的'原因在于有时候经验之音能促使我们停步、观察和倾听。也因为有时候过去的记载经过正确地诠释,能帮助我们决定何事可为、何事不可为。如果我们想要创造永久的和平,我们就必须从人类的经验以及人类历史的记载中去探索其渊源。

To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off When it rains. But actually the umbrella wasn't invented as protection against rain. Its first use was a shade against the sun!

Life doesn’t always give us the joy we want. We don’t always get our hopes and dreams, and we don’t always get our way1. But don’t give up hope, because you can make a difference one situation and one person at a time.
Look for the beauty around you, in nature, in others, in yourself, and believe in the love of friends, family, and humankind2. You can find love in a smile or a helping hand, in a thoughtful gesture or a kind word. It is all around, if you just look for it.
Give love, foringiving it you will find the power in life along with joy, happiness, patience and understanding. Believe in the goodness4 of others and re-member that anger and depression can be countered by love and hope.
Even when you feel as though there isn’t a lot you can do to change unhappiness or problems, you can always do a little —and a little at a time eventually makes a big difference.
Hope is always available to us. When we feel defeated, we only need to take a deep breath and say “Yes” and hope will reappear6.

励志英语小短文带翻译 第18篇
After winning several archery contests,the young and rather boastful champion challenged a Zen master who was renowned for his skill as an archer.
The young man demonstrated remarkable technical proficiency when he hit a distant bull’s eye on his first try,and then split that arrow with his second shot.
“There,”he said to the old man, “see if you can match that!”
Undisturbed ,the master did not draw his bow,but rather motioned for the young archer to follow him up the mountain.
Curious about the old fellow’s `intentions,the champion followed him high into the mountain until they reached a deep chasm spanned by a rather flimsy and shaky log.
Calmly stepping out onto the middle of the unsteady and certainly perilous bridge ,the old maser picked a far away tree as a target,drew his bow,and fired a clean,direct hit.
“Now it is your turn,”he said as he gracefully stepped back onto the safe with terror into the seemingly bottomless and beckoning abyss,the young man could not force himself to step out onto the log,no less shoot at a target. “You have much skill with your bow,” the master said ,sensing his challenger’s predicament, “but you have little skill with the mind that lets loose the shot.”

Wherever you are, and whoever you may be, there is one thing in which you and I are just alike at this moment, all 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. We are gaining something, or losing something, every day.
无论你在何处，无论你是何人，此刻，而且在我们生命的每时每刻，你与我有一点是类似的。我们不是在休息，我们在旅途中。生命是一种运动，一种趋势，一个稳步、持续的通往一个未知目标的过程。每天，我们都在获得，或失去。
Even when our position and our character seem to remain precisely the same, they are changing, for the mere advance 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.
尽管我们的地位和性格看起来好像一点都没变，但是它们在变化。因为时光的流逝本身是一种变化。在一月和七月拥有一片贫瘠的土地是不同的，是季节本身带来了变化。孩童时可爱的缺点到了成人时便成了幼稚。
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. .
我们做的每件事都是迈向一个或另外一个方向，甚至“什么都没做”本身也是一种行为，它让我们前进或倒退。一棵磁针的阴极的作用与阳极是一样的。拒绝即接受其反面。
Are you nearer to your port today than you were yesterday?

经典英语散文名篇：生活之路
The lives of most men are determined by their environment. They accept the circumstances amid which fate has thrown them not only resignation but even with good will. They are like streetcars running contentedly on their rails and they despise the sprightly flitter that dashes in and out of the traffic and speeds so jauntily across the open country. I respect them; they are good citizens, good husbands, and good fathers, and of course somebody has to pay the taxes; but I do not find them exciting.
大多数人的生活被他们身处的环境所决定。他们不仅接受既定的命运，而且顺从命运的安排。他们就像街上的有轨电车一样，在他们既定的轨道上行驶，而对于那些不时出没于车水马龙间和欢快地奔驰在旷野上的廉价小汽车却不屑一顾。我尊重他们，他们是好市民、好丈夫和好父亲。当然，总得有些人来支付税收，但是，他们并没有令人激动的地方。
I am fascinated by the men, few enough in all conscience, who take life in their own hands and seem to mould it in to their own liking. It may be that we have no such thing as free will, but at all events, we have the illusion of it. At a cross-road it does seem to us that we might go either to the right or to the left and, the choice once made, it is difficult to see that the whole course of the world's history obliged us to take the turning we did.
另外有一些人，他把生活掌握在自己的手里，可以按照自己的喜好去创造生活，尽管这样的人少之又少，但我却被他们深深地吸引着。可能世界上并没有诸如自由意志这样的事情，但是无论怎样，我们总有关于自由意志的幻想。当我们处在一个十字路口时，我们似乎可以决定向左走还是向右走，可是一旦做出选择，我们却很难意识到，实际上是世界历史的全部进程强迫我们做出了那样的选择。
经典英语散文名篇：挖掘黄金
When I was a young boy in Santa Cruz, California I used to help my Grandfather in the fields by his home. This was not his land but back in those days it was not unusual to barter with the neighbours to worked it for them so he could grow the vegetables that he loved. He would then share them with the neighbour for payment. He grew corn, beans, peas, zucchini, cucumbers and garlic. And nobody could grow bigger dahlias than my Grandfather.
在我很小的时候，我的祖父家住在加利福尼亚的圣克鲁斯城，我常常去祖父家附近的田地里帮他干农活。尽管那块田地是属于祖父的邻居，但在那个时候，邻居之间作实物交易是很常见的，所以祖父也能在那块田地种上自己喜爱的农作物。而作为报酬，在收割时祖父就与邻居们一同分享果实。祖父通常种植玉米、大豆、豌 豆、南瓜、黄瓜和大蒜。祖父的农艺很高超，就连他种的大丽花长得也要比邻居们种的高大许多。
As I worked along side him he used to love to tell this story of a named Giuseppe (Joe) and his wife who moved to a new farm with their three sons. They were settling into the new community when a nearby farmer told Joe that there was gold in the dirt of his new property. Joe took that statement as that there was actual gold in the land. He thought to himself, “I have three healthy sons, I will tell them about it”. Indeed he told his sons that there was gold to be found in their new property. Needless to say his sons actually took charge of their personal enterprise right on their own land. They had visions of what they would do when they found gold. Each son had a different vision. For as young as they were, they set up quite a professional approach in the digging for gold.
当我在一旁帮祖父干农活时，他总爱给我讲一个名叫乔的一家人的故事。故事是这样的:乔带着妻子和他们的三个儿子搬到了一个新的农场。当乔一家人住进一个新杜区以后，附近的一位农夫告诉乔说他的地里有黄金。乔昕后以为这片土地有真的黄金存在，就在心里暗想我有三个健壮的儿子，我应该把这件事告诉他们。“于是，乔告诉他的儿子说，在他们家的这块新地产上可以找到黄金。不必说，他的儿子们立刻去地里挖掘黄金了，就好像把这件事当成了自己的事业一样。他们幻想着找到黄金以后去做什么，但每一个人都有各自不同的梦想。因为他们如此年轻，还提出一个相当专业的.挖掘黄金的方法。
They began in one corner with a certain width and kept going until they got to the end. Once they got to the property line they would start another swath and go back the other direction. They began to realize that digging for gold was fun! This procedure went on for about six months and they still weren through going through the whole property.
他们先从一个角落开始挖掘，并以特定的一个宽度继续向前挖，一直挖到这块土地的尽头。他们渐渐觉得挖掘黄金这件事充满了无穷的乐趣!就这样不知不觉，他们连续挖了六个月，仍然陶醉在拥有黄金以后的美梦里。
Meanwhile Joe thought he would plant some crops in the area where the dirt had been turned thoroughly. He planted corn, tomatoes, potatoesand onions. His sons continued to dig through the soil, determined to find gold. As more dirt was available. Joe planted more crops. An interesting point here is that Joe had never farmed before but it had always been a dream of his to do so.
与此同时，乔有了新的想法，他打算在这些彻底翻新过的土地上种一些农作物。于是，他开始种玉米、西虹柿、马铃薯和洋葱。而他的儿子们仍在这块土地上继续不停地挖掘着，一心想找到黄金。随着可利用的土地越来越多，乔的农作物也越种越多。有趣的是，乔以前从来不会种田，那似乎是他所不敢想象的，然而现在他却做到了。
As each different crop became ready to be harvested Joe started to realize that there was more than he and his family could ever eat. One of Joe's neighbours suggested that he set Up a vegetable stand. Joe and his wife did that very thing. They called it Joe and Family Vegetables. Joe even had to leave some crops on the ground because he had more than enough to meet the demands at the vegetable stand.
当各种农作物快要收割的时候，乔意识到这要比他一家人所需要的食物多得多。这时乔的一位邻居建议他在地里设立一个蔬菜区用来出售。于是乔和妻子昕取了他的意见，并把它称为乔家蔬菜。乔在蔬菜区留了足够多的蔬菜，以满足顾客的需求。
What were Joe's sons doing in the meantime? They were still working the land even after they had finished the entire parcel. They started once again in the original corner. working in the leftover plant material while they were still on their quest to find gold.
那么与此同时，乔的儿子们在做什么呢?他们仍然在这块土地上挖掘着黄金，甚至当所有的土壤都被翻过以后。他们在起初的角落里又重新挖了起来，而这时地里的庄稼已经收割完，他们在这块留有农作物残枝败叶的土地上仍然继续追逐着他们的黄金梦。
This process went on for years and Joe and his wife became quite wealthy from their little vegetable stand. They were even able to send their sons off to college simply because they wanted to find gold.
几年过去了，乔和妻子靠着他们的那块蔬菜地，已经变得相当富有。他们甚至能供得起儿子去上大学，而不想再看到他们的儿子只想着挖黄金。
Remember at the beginning of the story when Joe was told by his new neighbour that there was gold in the land? Well, the truth is. Joe's understanding of the English language was less than perfect. His new neighbour friend actually told him that his land had rich soil. So you can see where the concept of gold came In.
再让我们回顾一下故事的开头，不正是乔的新邻居告诉他地里出黄金的吗?然而，事实上是乔对英国的语言理解得还不够透彻。他的新邻居其实是说他那块土地有肥沃的土壤，所以你应该知道黄金的概念来自哪儿了吧。
Did Joe's sons become slaves to the digging? No, they were inspired because they had visions of what money could do for them and did not focus on the money itself.
乔的儿子们成为挖掘土地的奴隶了吗?不，他们只是一昧地幻想着金钱能为他们做什么，并被无数个幻想所激励，但从未考虑过获取金钱的正确途径。
Is way we can take this story to a higher level? Yes. the Universe provides us opportunity and sometimes dangles the carrot to inspire us. In essence. Joe's sons were inspired with the possibility of finding gold in the soil. Some of you I'm sure will draw your own meaning. but here is one to consider. Go out and pretend that there is gold in all your challenges and setbacks so that you can be inspired to motivate yourself to allow the Universe to provide all that you need and then some.

It was a classic night. The noisy Mexico City gradually calmed down. The main stadium of Olympic track and field competition was enveloped in the darkness.
After he finished making the scenes the marathon winners received the trophies and marked the victory, Greenspan, the world famous newsreel producer, found the stadium empty. It was time for him to return to the hotel for a rest. He was about to leave when he suddenly saw a bandaged man with his right leg stained with the blood ran into the stadium. This man ran lamely out of breath, but he didn’t stop. After he ran along the runway for a circle and got to the goal, he collapsed on the ground...
Greenspan guessed this was a marathon athlete. Out of curiosity, he went over to ask why the athlete wanted to run to the goal with such a difficulty.
The young man called Kowari from Tanzania replied gently, “That my country sent me here from more than 20,000 kilometers is not let me get off the mark in the competition, but makes me complete the game. I want to run to the goal, though I have fallen behind all other runners, but I have a sacred goal like them： I will run to the goal. Though the audience won’t cheer me any more, my motherland is watching me intently from behind...”
Tears welled up in Greenspan's eyes. Soon, he spread the most touching scene in the history of the Olympic Games to every corner of the world.
Life should have a dream of reaching the peak, yet we should understand not everybody has the ability to do most important is not whether we can reach the peak but whether we have made the greatest efforts-to reach the goal in the mind is a success.

我要跑向终点
那是一个经典的夜晚,喧嚣的墨西哥城终于渐渐安静下来，奥运会田径比赛的主体育场笼罩在夜色中。
享誉国际的纪录片制作人格林斯潘将当天马拉松比赛优胜者们领取将杯庆祝胜利的镜头制作完毕，才发现体育场内已空无一人，自己该回宾馆休息了。他刚要离开体育场，突然看到一个右腿沾满血污，绑着绷带的人跑进体育场。这个人一瘸一拐地跑着，气喘吁吁,却没有停下来。他顺着跑道跑了一圈，抵达终点后，一下瘫倒在地……
格林斯潘猜想，这是一名马拉松运动员。在好奇心的驱使下，他走了过去，询问这名运动员为什么要这么吃力地跑到终点。
这位来自坦桑尼亚名叫埃克瓦里的年轻人轻声回答说：“我的国家从两万多公里外送我来这里,不是叫我在这场比赛中起跑，而是派我来完成这场比赛的。我要跑向终点，尽管我已经落在奔跑队伍的最后面，但我有着和他们一样神圣的目标：我要跑到终点，尽管不再有观众为我加油，但我身后有祖国的凝望……”
格林斯潘泪光盈盈。很快，他就用镜头将奥运史上这最动人的一幕传递到世界的每个角落。
人生应该拥有登临峰顶的梦想，但更应该懂得不是每个人都有到达峰顶的能力。最重要的不是能否到达峰顶，而是是否尽到了最大努力——到达心中的目标，便是一种成功。
英语励志小短文：做好自己The Art of Being You
These are challenging times when we lose faith in the world and even in ourselves. Most of us think that we are in control of our lives or destiny1, but it is not always like that. It is time for us to look inward and find our inner power.
这是充满挑战的时刻——当我们对世界甚至自己失去信心。我们中的大多数人认为自己能够掌握自己的生活或命运,然而事实却并非总是如此。这时我们应审视内心,并寻找自身的内在潜能。
We truly have everything in our lives to make us happy, but we have trouble recognizing it. Happiness does not come from material things, money or the love of an admirer. Yes, material things can make us happy; money is something nice to have; love from another person can bring lots of pleasure, but real happiness comes from our own minds. It is the art of being you.
我们的确已经拥有生活中那些能够令我们感到幸福的事,只是还未意识到。幸福并非来自物质享受、金钱或仰慕者的喜爱。是的,物质享受能够令我们感到开心;拥有金钱是件美事;来自仰慕者的喜爱给我们带来愉悦,但真正的幸福来自我们内心——“做自己”的艺术。
You can’t have everything you want, but you can have happiness by accepting all the good things in your life. The time we have on this earth is limited3, so take time to enjoy and appreciate a hot shower, the smell of a rose, the laughter of children and the feeling of the warm summer sun on your skin.
你无法拥有自己想要的一切,但接受生活中所有的美好仍可令你感到幸福。英语短文生命有限,因此请珍惜时间。享受一个热水澡、玫瑰的芬芳、孩子的笑声和夏日阳光洒在皮肤上的温暖感觉,并对这些心存感激。
The art of being you is to feel the gratitude4 and peace of being alive. Take a quiet moment to thank everything for allowing you to live on the earth to discover happiness. Once you do this, you will know the great value of the art of being you. What more can you ask for?
“做自己”的艺术在于感受活着的平和并对其心存感激。找一个安静的时刻感激所有令你能够活在世上并发现幸福的事物。一旦做过,你便会知道“做自己”的价值所在。人生如此,夫复何求?

Let's take steps to banish some of the most common negative thoughts many of us repeat to ourselves. Being in a negative space is harmful to our overall well-being, because what you dwell on can easily become self fulfilling if you don't change your mindset.
让我们一起行动起来，消灭那些我们经常告诉自己的消极想法吧!如果你不改变想法，而是一味地沉浸在消极的念头中，那么，我们的整个身心就会受到影响，因为“噩梦”也会成真。
'm not good enough.
我不够好。
This type of negative thought that can apply to many categories. Maybe you don't think you're a good enough mother or good at a sport. Even if you find yourself lacking in something, there's no need to keep repeating it to yourself. The human brain is an incredible thing. Be inspired by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, Harvard-trained neuroscientist who suffered a stroke that left her unable to walk, read, write, talk, or remember her previous life. Dr. Taylor took eight years to recover and has since then written a best-selling book about her experience and appeared on Oprah. Keep on working toward something, and watch the leaps and bounds you'll make.
这种消极想法有很多类型。比如你认为自己不是个称职的妈妈或不擅长运动。即使你真的`发现了自己的弱点，也没必要对自己不断复述。人脑是神奇的。吉尔泰勒就是个激励的好典型，她是哈佛大学的神经系统学专家，中风后她就失去了行走、阅读、书写、交谈的能力了，甚至还失忆了。她花了八年的时间复原，用自己的经历写了畅销书，还上了奥普拉的节目。坚持做一件事，亲眼见证自己的变化。
one cares about me.
没人关心我。
To accurately say that your family and friends don't care about you would be a very rare situation. Maybe you're being too negative and overlooking the gestures of love they show you. They don't even have to be big gestures, but it's the little things they do for you that count. And people may be reacting to the energy you're putting out; perhaps you think they don't care about you so you don't make any effort in your relationships. Start showing people you care, so they can show you back in kind. And if you don't have good relationships with the people you know, what's stopping you from making new friends?
家人朋友都不关心你，这种情况其实不太常见。可能你过于消极的想法使你忽略了他们对你表达的爱。他们甚至并不需要为你做什么惊天动地的大事，正是一些小事才真正打动人心。或者你觉得没人关心你，所以无需再经营人际关系，但其实也许人们只有在感知到你的付出后，才会对你进行回报;关心别人，别人才会关心你。如果你和周围人的关系处理不好，为何不结交些新朋友?
really dislike this person.
我真的不喜欢这个人。
If you dislike a person in your work or personal life, focusing on her bad qualities is not going to make things better. You need to let go of your assumptions about her and know that she is human too, which means she makes mistakes. Either you move on and stop thinking and talking about her, or learn to approach her or think about her in a positive manner. Focus on her good qualities, and repeat them to yourself instead of honing in on the unpleasant things.
如果工作或生活中有你讨厌的人，只关注她的缺点有害无益。你需要放下对她的所有成见，告诉自己她也是个人，也有犯错的时候。要么就不再谈论她和想着她，要么学着去接近她，或想想她好的一面。多想想她的优点，不要再专注于让你不开心的事情。
is she better off?
为什么她比我好?
Comparing yourself to someone else is never productive or positive. There's always going to be someone who is younger, prettier, smarter, or richer than you. If you keep coveting what someone else has, then this may cause you to be resentful of them, which will open a whole other negative can of worms. Remember, what they don't have is your whole package. Be appreciative of what you have, because if you want to play the comparison game, remember that there are people who are also worse off than you are.
和别人比较永远不是有效率和积极的表现。总有比你年轻，漂亮，聪明，富有的人。如果你始终关注别人拥有什么，会带来你对他们的恨意，随即带来更多消极的想法。记住，你所拥有的也是他们所没有的。珍惜你所拥有的东西，如果真的想和别人比较，也别忘了总有比你差的人。
'll never reach my goal.
我永远无法达到目标。
If you think you're not going to be able ”get there,“ think again. There are many people who are worse off and have overcome bigger obstacles than what you are facing. Take, for example, Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius, an amputee who overcame his handicap to compete in the Olympics against his able-bodied peers. Everything is within your reach as long as you work hard and have a a positive attitude.
如果你认为自己达不到，再想想。比你差的人比比皆是，他们遇到的困难也比你的更大。比如，奥运会短跑选手刀锋战士奥斯卡·皮斯托利斯，一个被截肢的运动员，战胜了自己的阻碍，在其他健壮的对手中脱颖而出赢得了奥运会的冠军。只要你努力付出，有着积极的信念，任何事都能够做到。

林书豪成名的背后
He is a Harvard graduate playing in the National Basketball Association. He is an Asian-American in a league devoid of them, which makes him doubly anomalous. No team drafted Lin in 20xx. Two teams cut him in December, before the Knicks picked him up.
他是NBA赛场上少有的名校哈佛毕业生，他是联盟里少见的亚裔美国人，这样双重特殊身份的林书豪，在20xx年NBA新秀大会上落选，20xx年12月先后被金州勇士队和休斯敦火箭队裁掉，之后纽约尼克斯队宣布签下他。
His contract, potentially worth nearly $800,000, was not even guaranteed until Tuesday afternoon. So for the past six weeks, Lin, 23, has been sleeping in his brother Josh’s living room, waiting for clarity and career security.
尼克斯与他签下的合同价值约为80万美元，也许在这之前他持有的是非保障合同，但到周二下午6点(球队裁员的截至日子)林书豪的的合同自动转为了保障合同，他将安全的留在尼克斯队。事实上在过去的6周里，23岁的林书豪因为不确定自己是否能够继续留在纽约，一直寄居在哥哥家当沙发客，等待职业生涯中保障合同的出现。
On Saturday night, Lin came off the bench and powered the Knicks to a 99-92 victory over the Nets at Madison Square Garden, scoring a career-best 25 points with 7 assists. Two nights later, he made his first . start and produced 28 points and 8 assists in a 99-88 win over the Utah Jazz.
Knicks fans now serenade Lin with chants of “Je-re-my!” and “.!”. With every game, every precision pass and every clever drive to the basket, Lin is raising expectations, altering the Knicks’ fate and redefining the word “unlikely.” On Twitter, fans and basketball pundits are using another term to describe the phenomenon: “Linsanity.”
麦迪逊广场花园的球迷们齐声欢呼“Jeremy”和“MVP”。每一场比赛，每一个精准的过人，每一次聪明的突破，林书豪给球迷们带来希望，改变了尼克斯队的命运，也再次重新定义了“不可能”。在推特上，球迷和篮球人士用Linsanity “为林疯狂” 这个标签来描述这种林书豪热现象(Linsanity：Lin+insanity)。
Two weeks ago, the 6-foot-3 Lin was not even part of the Knicks’ point-guard rotation, despite their lack of talent at the position. He played sparingly in a few games, showing just enough promise to keep getting another look— a few more minutes, another quarter. But there was never any hint of what was to come.
两周前，这个身高1米91的华裔小个子甚至根本不在尼克斯队的控球后卫轮转名单中，尽管尼克斯目前在控卫的位置缺乏优秀的人才。在此之前他只打过几场比赛，但他的表现足以让教练注意到他。慢慢地，他的上场时间在增加：多了几分钟，再打一节。林书豪的传奇成功不是无迹可寻的。
With 25 points Saturday, Lin set the . scoring record for a player from Harvard. For an encore, he became the first player in more than 30 years to record at least 28 points and 8 assists in his first . start. The last to do so was Isiah Thomas, the Detroit Pistons’ Hall of Fame point guard, in October 1981.
在周六砍下25分的一球成名战后，林书豪也创下了NBA赛场上哈佛毕业生的得分记录。第二场比赛中，他再次创下记录，成为NBA赛场30多年里首发首秀拿到28分8助攻的第一人。上次拿到这个得分的是在1981年10月，底特律活塞队伊塞亚·托马斯(NBA名人堂球员)。
“I don’t think anyone, including myself, saw this coming,” Lin said after the game Monday.
林书豪在周一比赛后表示，“我相信任何人包括我自己在内，都没有预想到这样的成绩”。

后来，他决定用那片带他到小岛的木头造一个简陋的小木屋，以保护他在这险恶的环境中生存，并且保存他所有剩下的东西。
But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky.
但有一天，在他捕完食物后，准备回小屋时，突然发现他的小屋竟然陷在熊熊烈火之中， 大火引起的浓烟不断向天上窜。
The worst had happened; everything was lost.

He was stunned with grief and anger. “God how could you do this to me!” he cried.
悲痛的他，气愤的对天吶喊着：神啊!你怎么可以这样对待我!顿时，眼泪从他的眼角中流出。
Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island.

It had come to rescue him.
是的，有人来救他了。
“How did you know I was here?” asked the weary man of his rescuers. “We saw your smoke signal,” they replied.
到了船上时，他问那些船员说：「你怎么知道我在这里?」
It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad.
「因为我们看到了信号般的浓烟。」他们回答说。 人在碰到困难时，很容易会沮丧。
But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering.
不过无论受到折磨或者痛苦，都不用因此失去信心，因为上帝一直在我们心里面做着奇妙的工作。
Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground it just may be a smoke signal that summons the grace of God.
记住：当下一次你的小木屋着火时，那可能只是上帝美妙恩典的表征而已。
For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves,God has a positive answer for it.
在所有我们所认为负面的事情，上帝都是有正面答案的。

A Mask was Stifling Me');
Lucy Freeman
露西?弗里曼
I believe that everyone wants to love and be loved and that happiness stems from a facing and acceptance of self that allows you to give and receive love.
我相信，爱与被爱是每个人的渴望。一个人是否幸福，关键在于他是否拥有爱并能够接受爱。
Some think of love as a passionate, hungry, dramatic feeling, all consuming in intensity and desire. As I see it, this is, rather, immature love: it is a demand on others, not a giving of oneself. Mature love, the love that brings happiness, flows out of an inner fullness, and accepts, understands and is tender toward the other person. It does not ask to be served but only where it may serve.
在有些人看来，爱就是一种充满活力、渴望且极富戏剧性的情感，是占有一切的激情与欲望。而我认为，这种爱是极不成熟的爱：它是向他人的索求，而不是奉献。只有成熟的爱才能带来幸福，它是内心真挚情感的流露，能够接受并理解他人，给予对方温柔与体贴。它不索求服务，而是处处提供服务。
Six years ago I could hardly breathe because of acute sinus. My stomach was always upset and full of queasiness and I had trouble sleeping, even though I felt exhausted all the time. In desperation, after doctors who treated the physical symptoms failed to ease the pain, I tried psychoanalysis. I was lucky to find a wise, compassionate man who showed me what it meant to be able to trust myself and others.
6年前，由于身患急性鼻窦炎，我几乎难以呼吸。胃部也常感不适，易恶心呕吐。失眠问题也一直困扰着我，即使我感到疲惫不堪却依然辗转难眠。可是，医生对我的病症所做的治疗却毫不奏效，我的痛苦丝毫未减。绝望中，我尝试了心理疗法。很幸运的是，我找到了一位博学、热情的医生，他让我懂得了，能够相信自己与他人的意义所在。
The physical ills are gone, but more than that, I have at long last started to acquire a philosophy of living. I had never possessed one. I had lived on dogma and dicta which I had accepted unquestioningly through the years, even though I believed little of it, because I feared to question. But by being unable to live naturally and at peace with myself I was flying in the face of nature. She was punishing me with illness and, at the same time, informing me all was not well just in case I wanted to do something about it.
我身体的疾病得以治愈，而更多的是我最终开始学会一门生活的哲学。我一直是一个循规蹈矩的人，虽然我并不相信那些教条与格言，但多年来，由于不敢质疑，我一直不假思索地将其视为生活的准则。然而我却难以正常而平静地生活，总是坐立不安。最终，我受到了惩罚，病魔缠身，同时也得到了启示：必须对现状做出改变，否则将万事不顺。
In order to change, I needed help in facing myself. For me it was not easy to “know thyself”. All my life I had accepted the lesser of the two evils and run away from self because truth was more dangerous. Once I thought that to survive I had to put on a mask and forget what lay underneath. But masks are false protections and the inner part of me refused to go unheard forever.
为了改变现状，我需要帮助来面对自我。对我来说，“认识自己”并不是件简单的事。一生中，我选择了两个罪恶中较轻的一个：逃避自我，因为真相往往更为危险。曾经我以为，戴上面具，忘记面具下的一切，就能生存下去。
It caught up eventually, and unless it was to master me I had to face such feelings as fear, anger, envy, hatred, jealousy and excessive need for attention. When I realized I could not have done anything else except what I did, I was able to like myself more and be able to like others not for what they could give me but for what I could give to them.
然而，面具是虚假的掩护，我的内心决不肯永远缄默。最终这种情感占了上风，如果它不曾主宰我，我就依然得面对恐惧、愤怒、羡慕、仇恨、嫉妒和极其需要关注的情感。除了顺从自己的内心，我别无选择，当我意识到这一点时，我便更喜欢自己，也更爱他人。这并不是为了他人能给予我什么，而是我能给予他们什么。
The Bible shows the way to easy, happy living in many of its pages. It advises, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Those who expect the most are apt to receive the least. I had expected much and was filled with fury because nothing in the outside world relieved my emptiness and despair. Nothing did, either, until I could face the anger and fury, the emptiness and despair, and slowly start to know such new feelings as compassion, conviction, control, calm. I learned, too, of reason—that judicious combination of thought and feeling that enables me to take more responsibility for myself and others, that allows me to slay the ghosts of the past.
如何能简单幸福地生活，《圣经》中的众多例子都告诉了我们。它建议：“施比受更有福。”那些期望最多的人，往往收获最少。曾经，我期望颇多，内心却充满了愤怒与狂躁，因为外界任何事物都无法填补我内心的空虚与绝望。一切都于事无补，直到我能够面对愤怒、狂躁、空虚与绝望，并慢慢地开始懂得同情、信仰、自制与平静这些新的情感。我也明白了，理智正是思想与情感最明智的结合，它能够让我为自己与他人承担起更多的责任，驱除往昔纠缠我的幽灵。
For me there is much hard work ahead to achieve greater happiness. Yet, the very struggle I have put into achieving a measure of it makes happiness that much more dear.
对我来说，要想更加幸福，还需付出更多艰辛的努力。但是，为获得一定程度的幸福而付出的艰辛努力，才使得幸福弥足珍贵。

迈克尔·乔丹退役演说
I am here to announce my retirement from the game of basketball. It won't be another announcement to baseball or anything to that nature.
我在这里宣布从篮球场上退役，而且这次退役后不会再去从事棒球或其他类似的运动。
Mentally, I'm exhausted; I don't feel I have a challenge. Physically, I feel great. The last time in 1993 I had other agendas. I felt that I wanted to play baseball and I felt that at my age, it was a good opportunity and time to do it. And with the death of my father, and I was basically trying to deal with that.
由于精神上很疲惫，我感到自己非常蛙主耻战力，体力倒还不错。1993年那次退役时我有其他计划：想打棒球，我这个年纪正是从事桦球事业的极佳时机而且父亲刚好去世了，我只想尽力去面对这一切。
Actually I talked to very last year once the season ended and I told Jerry at that time, mentally, I was a little exhausted. I didn't know if I would play next year. I wanted to put him on awareness so that he could possibly prepare going into next season. And very, once we had our conversation, wanted me to take time as I did in 93 to make sure that it was the right decision because it was going to be the final decision.
事实上，去年赛季刚结束时，我和在里谈过一次。我告诉他我精神上有些疲惫，不知道下一年还能不能打我想让他幸识到这一点，以便为下一事丰做准备。杰里——有一次我们谈过这个问题——让我要像93年那样，好好考虑，以使做出明智的决定，因为这将是最后的决定。
I retired the first time when Phil Jackson was the coach. And I think that even with Phil being the coach I would have had a tough time , mentally finding the challenge for myself. I though he can somehow present challenges for me. I don't know if he could have presented the challenge for me to continue on to this season. Even though middle way of this season I wanted to continue to play a couple more years, but at the end of this season I was mentally drained and tired. 50 I can't say that he would have restored that.
第一次退役时菲尔.杰克逊是教练。但我觉得即使本赛季他还担任教练，我也会很困难，内心里 ，我已感到了挑战。当然克论如何，他都会给我一些应对方洁的我不知道他是否还有办法使我打完这一赛季。在本赛季中间我还想着再打几年呢，但当赛季结束时，我却感觉精神枯竭，疲惫。因此我确实不能说他会使我恢复精力。
I will support the Chicago Bulls. I think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan. I've been given an opportunity by people before me, to name a few, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Doctor J, Eljohn Baylor Jerry West. These guys played the game way before Michael Jordan was born and Michael Jordan came on the heels of all that activity. Mr. Stern and what he's done for the league, gave me an opportunity to play the game of basketball I played it to the best I could play it, I tried to enhance the game itself. I've tried to be the best basketball player that I could be.
我将支持芝加哥公牛队，我认为比赛本身比迈克尔.乔丹重要得多。我的很多机会都是篮球前辈们给的。我这里指出一些：里姆·阿卡杜·贾巴尔，J博士,伊利约翰 ·贝勒，杰里 ·韦斯特这些人早在迈克尔.乔丹出生前就活跃在赛场了。迈克尔.乔丹只不过是继承了他们的传统。斯特恩先生及其为联盟做出的贡献给了我打蓝球的机会。找已尽我最大能力打球，我也努力拉动比赛本身的发展。我一直在努力，尽我所能成为最好的球员。

James Cameron: Failure is an Option, but Fear is not
詹姆斯·卡梅隆：失败是人生的`选项之一，但畏惧不是
And you know, along the way in this journey of discovery, I learned a lot. I learned a lot about science. But I also learned a lot about leadership. Now you think director has got to be a leader, leader of, captain of the ship, and all that sort of thing.
在发现的旅途中，我学到了很多。我学到的不仅仅是科学知识，还有领导力。很多人以为作为导演，就一定具有很高的领导力，就像船长带领整艘船一样。
I didn't really learn about leadership until I did these expeditions. Because I had to, at a certain point, say, “What am I doing out here? Why am I doing this? What do I get out of it?” We don't make money at these damn shows. We barely break even. There is no fame in it. People sort of think I went away between “Titanic” and “Avatar” and was buffing my nails someplace, sitting at the beach. Made all these films, made all these documentary films for a very limited audience.
但我却是从这些探险中学到如何带领团队。在探险时，有时候我会问自己，“我为什么会在这里?为什么要做这些纪录片?我从中得到了什么?”我们并没有从这些纪录片中赚钱，还差点亏了本。我也没有赚到名声。很多人以为我在《秦坦尼克号》之后《阿凡达》之前就一直躺在沙滩边享受。这些纪录片只有很少的观众。
No fame, no glory, no money. What are you doing? You're doing it for the task itself, for the challenge---and the ocean is the most challenging environment there is, for the thrill of discovery, and for that strange bond that happens when a small group of people form a tightly knit team. Because we would do these things with 10-12 people working for years at a time. Sometimes at sea for 2-3 months at a time.
没有名声，没有荣耀，没有利润。那我在做什么呢?我做这些其实只是为了这件任务本身。为了挑战——海洋是现存最危险的环境;为了发现;也为了一种奇怪的关系，这发生在一个很少人组成的紧密团队中。我们这10到12个人在一起工作了很多年。有时要在海里一起工作2到3个月。
And in that bond, you realize that the most important thing is the respect that you have for them and that they have for you, that you've done a task that you can't explain to someone else. When you come back to the shore and you say, “We had to do this, and the fiber optic, and the attenuation, and this and that all the technology of it, and the difficulty, the human performance aspects of working at sea, you can't explain it to people. It's that thing that maybe cops have, or people in combat that have gone through something together and they know they can never explain it. Creates a bond, creates a bond of respect.”
在这种关系中，我发现最重要的东西就是尊重。你尊重他们，他们也尊重你，每个人做的工作都无法向其他人解释。当你从岸边回来的时候，你说：“我们不得不这样做，光纤眼、钝化、这个、那个，所有的技术、困难和在海边表演的各方面，你没法跟大家说清楚。这很像警察经历的那种事情或是格斗中人们经历的，他们知道他们解释不清。创造一种关系，建立起一种尊重关系。”

Negative thoughts conjures up bad feelings and hooks you into believing that what those old tapes in your head are playing is actually true. In short, it brings your focus to your failures, and that gets you nowhere。
消极的想法会带来不好的感受，在那脑海中不断的像老式磁带一般重复，也会让你信以为真。简而言之，这会让你把注意力全部放在失败的事情上，会让你彻底迷失自己。
What can you do? Here are some suggestions:你能做些什么呢?下面是一些建议：
1. Live in the moment活在当下
Self-talk is so subtle that we often don’t notice its effect on our mood and belief systems. Key things to notice are “if only or “what if” statements: the former keep you stuck in the past with regret, while the latter keep you fearful of the future. There is nothing you can do about the past, and the future isn’t here yet, so stay in the present moment。
内心的声音太微妙，有时我们根本不会注意到他们对情绪和信念产生的影响。最需要注意的就是“要是....。.多好” 和“假使....。.将会怎样” 这样的想法：前者会让你陷入对过去无尽的悔恨，后者会让你对未来充满恐惧。对于过去，你无能为力，而未来还未到来，好好活在当下吧。
2. Visualize the good things让那些美好变得形象生动
If we want to change the negative tapes playing in our heads, we have to visualize ourselves positively—that means seeing yourself non-judgmentally. Picture accepting yourself. How would that look? Draw a picture in your mind and expand on it。
如果要换掉脑海中不断播放的消极磁带，我们就要看到自己身上积极的一面，也就是说不带评判的看看自己。在内心细细描述客观接受自己会是什么的画面。细细画出心中所想，那会是什么样?
3. Recognize that actions always follow beliefs要认识到行为由信念指引
Whatever you believe, you’ll experience more of, and you’ll also find yourself behaving in ways that are congruent with your beliefs. So, start believing the best about yourself: act as if you believe that you’re a valuable and worthy person。
不管你是否相信，你以后的人生会经历更多，也会发现自己的行为和信念是相辅相成的。所以要开始相信自己最好的一面：相信自己是一个有价值的人，然后开始行动吧。
4. Pay attention to triggers留神那些“导火索”
Triggers are anything that can start the old tapes playing. If a certain person is a trigger for you, set boundaries with them。导火索可以使任何让脑海中消极磁带播放的人。如果某个人是你的导火索，那么就远离他们。
5. Develop positive counterstatements to refute negative self-talk积极反驳内心那些消极的声音
Instead of always putting yourself down in your head, think of some things you actually like about yourself. What are your strengths, what are you good at? Keep your counterstatements in the here-and-now, instead of saying “I’m not good enough” try saying, “I am capable. I’m good at ______. I accept myself the way I am。”
与其在脑海中一味的打压自己，还不如想想你到底喜欢自己什么样子。你的强项是什么，特长是什么?与其说“我不够好”，不如现在就开始说这句正能量的话语：“我有能力，我擅长....，我喜欢现在的自己。”
Thinking poorly about ourselves gets us nowhere and is extremely self-limiting. Decide today to turn off the negative self-talk channel in your mind and develop your true potential。
妄自菲薄只会让自己迷失方向，同时限制自身发展。从今天开始就关掉内心的消极频道，挖掘自身的潜力吧。
英语经典励志小短文：让将来的你感谢现在努力的自己
Have you ever been around someone who immediately put you at ease? Perhaps you may be one of those people who others feel safe around.
有没有遇到过那么个人，只要他/她在你身边，你立即就觉得安心?或许你就是让别人觉得安心的那么一个人。
What is the common thread in people who emanate warmth? Some may think it is related to personality or physical appearance. But this does little to explain why bright beacons of light can be found anywhere. Essence has nothing to do with our exterior.
那些气场中自带温暖的人有哪些共性呢?一些人也许认为这与性格或外貌有关。但这基本解释不了为什么明亮的灯塔之光四处可见。本质与我们的外在无关。
I like to believe the common thread is a universal trait we are all able to tap into. When we see the truth of who we are and wholeheartedly love every part of that truth, we automatically shine. When we embrace our essence and live in congruence with who we are, we radiate peace.
我愿意相信这个共性是我们都能够触及的、普遍存在的品质。当我们欣赏自己的本质并全心全意热爱着这一切的时候，我们自然而然就会出类拔萃。当我们欣然接受自己的本质并遵循本心来生活的时候，我们会自带平和的光环。
Every day we can choose to wake up and see the gift of getting to be who we are. When we decide to live from this way of “being,” it becomes easy to see this same light and gift in everyone — even those who may not yet see it in themselves.
每一天，我们都可以选择一醒来就欣赏做自己这一项天赋。当我们决定以“本性”来生活的时候，在每个人身上，甚至是那些可能还没有开始欣赏自身本性的人身上，我们变得很容易就能看到同样的光芒和天赋了。
The benefits of self-love are many. What I know to be true without a doubt in my heart, is that we are all capable of giving this gift to ourselves.
自爱的益处有很多。我所知道的真相就是，我们都能赋予自己这项天赋，这一点我深信不疑。
These words help me remember why embracing my essence is always the best thing to do. Perhaps this may resonate with where you are.
这些话让我想起欣然接受自己的本质始终是上策的原因。或许这也会与你产生共鸣。
When you love who you are,
当你爱自己的时候，
you become a conduit of light.
你会成为一道光。
Just drop into your heart space,
只需触及心房，
and live life from this view.
并遵循本心来生活。
For all of this doing
做这一切
is not who you are.
无关你是谁。
Listen to your heart’s soft whisper,
聆听内心轻柔的呢喃，
this voice will show you the way.
她会告诉你方法。
Live life from your essence
遵循本性来生活
is what she will say.
她会这样告诉你。
See the light in yourself,
欣赏自身的光芒，
and your world will be bright.
你的世界都会变得明亮。
There is no need to worry,
没必要担心，
you are exactly as you should be;
你正是自己本来的模样;
remember to love who you are,
记得爱自己，
and love you will see.
爱自己欣赏的一切。

i am nature's greatest miracle.

我不可能像动物一样容易满足，我心中燃烧着代代相传的火焰，它激励我超越自己，我要使这团火燃得更旺，向世界宣布我的出类拔萃。
none can duplicate my brush strokes, none can make my chisel marks, none can duplicate my handwriting, none can produce my child, and, in truth, none has the ability to sell exactly as i. henceforth, i will capitalize on this difference for it is an asset to be promoted to the fullest.

vain attempts to imitate others no longer will i make. instead will i place my uniqueness on display in the market place. i will proclaim it, yea, i will sell it. i will begin now to accent my differences; hide my similarities. so too will i apply this principle to the goods i sell. salesman and goods, different from all others, and proud of the difference.
我不再徒劳地模仿别人，而要展示自己的个性。我不但要宣扬它，还要推销它。我要学会去同存异，强调自己与众不同之处，回避人所共有的通性，并且要把这种原则运用到商品上。推销员和货物，两者皆独树一帜，我为此而自豪。
i am a unique creature of nature.

i am rare, and there is value in all rarity; therefore, i am valuable. i am the end product of thousands of years of evolution; therefore, i am better equipped in both mind and body than all the emperors and wise men who preceded me.
物以稀为贵。我独行特立，因而身价百倍。我是千万年进化的终端产物，头脑和身体都超过以往的帝王与智者。
but my skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest i put them to good use. i have unlimited potential. only a small portion of my brain do i employ; only a paltry amount of my muscles do i flex. a hundredfold or more can i increase my accomplishments of yesterday and this i will do, beginning today.
但是，我的技艺，我的头脑，我的心灵，我的身体，若不善加利用，都将随着时间的流逝而迟钝，腐朽，甚至死亡。我的潜力无穷无尽，脑力、体能稍加开发，就能超过以往的任何成就。从今天开始，我就要开发潜力。
nevermore will i be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments nor will i indulge, anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. i can accomplish far more than i have, and i will, for why should the miracle which produced me end with my birth? why can i not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?

A Better Tomorrow
People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve millions of books, documents and records.
Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations1 of government officials and the events during wars?
We do it because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen. Sometimes, past records, when understood in the right way, can help us decide what to do and what not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the records of human history.
From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations of youth. History records the suffering, the self-denial2, the devotion, and the heroic deeds of people in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really need peace.
The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those who promote war, and inspiration to those who seek peace.
In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday’s records can keep us from repeating yesterday’s mistakes. And from the pieces of mosaic4 assembled5 by historians come the great murals6 which represent the progress of mankind.
翻译：一个更好的明天
英语励志短文人们常常心存疑虑,为什么历史学家要费尽周折地保存数以万计的书籍、文献和记录。
我们为什么要有图书馆呢？这些文献和史书有何用处呢? 我们为什么要记载并保存人类的行为、政府官员的谈判和战争中的事件呢？
我们这么做的原因在于有时候经验之音能促使我们停步、观察和倾听。也因为有时候过去的记载经过正确地诠释,能帮助我们决定何事可为、何事不可为。如果我们想要创造永久的和平,我们就必须从人类的经验以及人类历史的记载中去探索其渊源。
从体现男性和女性勇敢和奉献精神的故事之中,我们获得了青春的启示。英语短文历史记载着人类的'一切苦难、克己、忠诚和英勇的事迹。这些记载在我们困惑和渴望和平时能对我们有所帮助。
历史的主要目的是创造一个更加美好的世界。历史对那些力主战争的人给以警告,给予那些寻求和平的人以启示。
简而言之,历史帮助我们学习。昨日的记载可以使我们避免重蹈覆辙。这些历史学家们创作的像马赛克一样色彩缤纷的历史片断汇聚成了代表人类进步的伟大壁画。
