General MacArthur’s Prayer For His Son
By Douglas MacArthur
1、       Build me a son , O Lord , who will be strong enough to know when he is weak , and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid ; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat , and humble and gentle in victory .
2、       Build me a son whose wishes will not take the place of deeds ; a son who will know Thee — and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge .
3、       Lead him , I pray , not in the path of ease and comfort , but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge .
Here let him learn to stand up in the storm ; here let him learn compassion for those who fail .
4、       Build me a son whose heart will be clear , whose goal will be high ; a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men ; one who will reach into the future , yet never forger the past .
5、       And after all these things are his , add , I pray enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious , yet never takt himself too seriously . Give him humility , so that he may always rememder the simplicity of true greatness , the open mind of true wisdom , and the meekness of true strength . Then I , his father , will dare to whisper , "I have not lived in vain ."












麦帅为子祈祷词
道格拉斯·麦克阿瑟
Douglas MacArthur 道格拉斯·麦克阿瑟(1880 - 1964),美国五星上将。1903年毕业于西点军校,其总成绩是25年中学员所取得的最高成绩。1917年参加第一次世界大战,是远东部队中最引人注目,最勇敢无畏的军官之一,也是授勋最多的军官之一。1924-1927年,再西点军校任校长,为建设美国现代化军队作出了重要贡献。1935年被任命为驻菲律宾美军司令。第二次世界大战期间,麦克阿瑟指挥盟军西南太平洋地区战争。二战结束后,麦克阿瑟以盟军最高司令官名义,执行美国单独占领日本的任务。朝鲜战争期间,他力图将战争扩大到中国,与杜鲁门总统发生争执,被解除总司令一职,于1951年回到美国。晚年他作为一个战争英雄为美国人民所崇敬。1962年,麦克阿瑟再西点军校接受表彰——为国服务优秀的西尔韦纳斯·塞耶奖。

主啊,恳请为我培养这样一个儿子:使他强于自知他软弱之处;恐惧时勇于正视自己;诚实受挫时自豪不屈;胜利中谦逊温情。
恳请为我培养一个不以愿望代替行动的儿子。使他能够感知您的至圣。使他了解自知自明是一切知识的基石。
恳请不要把他引入贪图安逸、舒适的歧途而使他能够在困难及挑战的压力和督促之下奋勇前进。
在此请让他学会在暴风雨中屹立不屈,同时请让他学会对受到挫折的人给予理解和同情。
恳请为我培养一个心地清明、目标高远的儿子,使他成为一个能以责人之心责己的人,一个前事不忘后事的之师的人。
除此之外,还请求您赐予他一点幽默感,使他既严肃又不失活泼。凭着这种幽默感,让他了解真正的伟大是平凡,真正的智慧是宽广的÷心胸,真正的力量是柔和。那么,我、他的父亲,才敢默默自许:“我这辈子没白活。”
 
 




Corinthians 13
From The Bible
1、If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels , but have not love , I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2、If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge , and if I have a faith that can move mountains , but have not love , I am nothing .
3、If I give all I possess to the poor and surrende my body to the flames , but have not love , I gain nothing.
4 、Love is patient , love is kind . It does not envy , it does not boast , it is not proud .
5、It is not rude , it is not self-seeking , it is not easily angered , it leeps no record of wrongs .
6、Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth .
7、It always protects , always trusts , always hopes , always perseveres .
8、Love never fails . But where there are prophecies , they will cease ; where there are tongues , they will be stilled ; where there is knowledge , it will pass away .
9、For we know in part and we prophesy in part , but when perfection comes , the imperfect disappears .
10、When I was a child , I talked like a child , I thought like a child , I reasoned like a child . When I became a man , I put chilsish ways behind me .
11、Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror ; then we shall see face to face . Now I know in part ; then I shall know fully , even as I am fully known .
12、 And now these three remain : faith , hope and love . But the greatest of these is love.









圣经·歌林多前书第13章
《圣经》是基督教的经典,是基督教教义、教规、神学理论的依据。这部书是经过1400多年,由不同作者,在不同时期,不同地方,不同环境中陆续记录而成的。《圣经》之所以被基督教徒认为是神圣的,是因为他们相信作者所写的一切并非出于自己的意愿,而完全是记录了上帝的默示,是信仰的总纲,处世的规范,永恒的真理。最初是犹太教徒,后来是基督教徒,读了这些记录后深受感动,逐渐搜集并保存了这些记录,汇集成书,并把这部书作为信仰与道德的标准。这部书译成中文时,取其“神圣典范”、“天经地义”的意思,译为《圣经》。1604年,英王詹姆士一世(1566—1625)下令成立一个翻译机构,翻译机构一本权威英文译本《圣经》。据说参加这项工作的有54位著名学者,工作了三年,最后由牛津大学的迈尔斯·史密斯统一定稿,1611年印行。这本英文《圣经》语言丰富、文词优美、文学价值高,被公认为英国文学中的巨著。本篇是使徒保罗写给歌林多教会的信。
假若我能说万人的的方言,并天使的话,却没有爱。我就成了鸣的锣、响的钹一般。
我若有先知讲道之能,也明白各样的奥秘、各样的知识;而且有全备的信,叫我能够移山,却没有爱,我就算不得什么。
我若将所有的周济穷人,又舍己叫人焚烧,却没有爱,仍然于我无益。
爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈;爱是不嫉妒;爱是不自夸、不张狂。不做害羞的是;不求自己的益处;不轻易发怒;不计算人的恶。不喜欢不义,只喜欢真理。凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐。
爱是永不止息。先知讲道之能,终必归于无有;说方言之能,终必停止;知识也终必归于无有。
我们现在所知道的有限,先知所讲的也有限。等那完全的到来,着有限的于无有了。
我做孩子的时候,话语像个孩子,心思像个孩子,意念像个孩子;既成了人,就把孩子的事丢弃了。
我们如今仿佛对着镜子观看,模糊不清。到那时,就要面对面了。我如今所知道的有限,到那时就全知道,如同主知道我一样。
如今常存的有信、有望、有爱——这三样,其中最大的是爱。




I Am Nobody
By Emily Dickinsos
I’m nobody , who are you ?
Arer you nobodymn too?
Then there’s a pair of us .
Don’t tell they’d banish us , you know .
How dreary to be somebody ,
How public-like a frog-
To tell your name the livelong June
To an admiring bog .







我是无名小辈
艾米莉·迪肯逊
Emily Dickinson艾米莉·迪肯逊(1830—1886),美国女诗人。她秉性忧郁孤独,足不出户,一生过者几乎与世隔绝的生活。虽未受过正式的教育,但勤奋好学,博览群书,自学成才。她写的诗不送刊物,不求发表,甚至不在人前显露。她写了二千多首诗,但生前发表的不超过7首。她去世后,她妹妹在抽屉里发现一大堆手稿,于是代她陆续加以整理。1890年出版了她的第一本诗集。1955年出版了她的诗歌全集。她的诗言简意深,擅长运用象征手法描写平凡的事物或常见的情景,从而成功地表现自己的意志和感情。语言通俗精练,意象别致清新。常带有神秘气氛和唯美主义色彩。由于她离群索居,不问世事,其作品在当时无所影响,直到二十世纪二十年代才开始被人注意,名声日升,如今倍受推崇,被誉为英美意象派的前驱,杰出的美国现代女诗人。
我是无名小辈,
你呢?
也是无名小辈?
那我们是一对了。

要知道,
无需抱怨被人排挤,
可怕的 是赫赫显要。
出了名也不过像只青蛙,
在漫长的 六月里忙着
向赞赏它的泥沼,
高歌自己的名号。




I have a dream
By Martin Luther King
1、I say to you today , my friends , that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment I sill have a dream . It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream .
2、I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed : “ We hold these truths to be self – evident ; that all men are created equal . ”
3、This is our hope . This is the faith with which I return to the South . With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountains of despair a stone of hope With his faith we will be able to transform the jingling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood .
4、With this faith we will be able to work together , to pray together , to struggle together , to go to jail together , knowing that we will be free one day .
5、When we let freedom ring , when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet , from every state and every city , we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children , black man and white man , Jews and Gentiles , Protestants and Catholics , will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual , “ Free at last ! Free at last ! Thank God almighty , we are free at last ! ”















我有一个梦
马丁·路德·金
Martin Luther King 马丁·路德·金(1929-1968),美国黑人运动的著名领袖,推行非暴力主义理论的基督教牧师。出生于黑人牧师家庭,先后在宾夕法尼亚大学,哈佛大学和波士顿大学神学院攻读神学。1955年12月1日,蒙哥马利市一位黑人妇女拒绝给白人让座而遭拘捕和解雇。他组织5万黑人抗议集会,领导了长达一年的抵制乘坐公共汽车运动,以胜利告终。这次运动使他成为全国知名人士。1957年,他发起联合60多个抗议团体,成立黑人牧师组织“南方基督教领袖大会”,并当选为首任主席。1964年,他参加组织有25万人参加的争取就业,争取自由的“自由进军”华盛顿示威游行。他提出了“黑人应争得全部自由,不然就没有自由”的论点,并在林肯纪念堂前发表了“我有一个梦”,这篇载入史册的演说。他终身投身于美国黑人争取平等权利,反对种族压迫的斗争,三次被捕,三次遇刺。1963年,他被美国《时代》周刊选为第一号新闻人物。1964年,他被授予诺贝尔和平奖。1968年4月4日,在田纳西州孟菲斯城的黑人示威游行中,被白人种族主义分子暗杀。1983年10月,美国国会通过决议,规定把他的生日作为国家纪念日。从此,他享有美国黑人的最高荣誉。联合国秘书长宣布,从1987年起,他的生日成为联合国纪念日之一。
 
我的朋友们,今天我想告诉你们,虽然当前还有许多困难和挫折,我依然存有梦想,一个深深扎根于美国梦想中的梦想。
我有一个梦:这个国家有一天会起来实现国家纲领的真正含义——“所有的人生而平等,这是不言而喻的真理。”
这是我们的希望所在。我就是带着这种信念回到南方的。有了这种信念,我们就可以把国内争执不已的噪音化为兄弟和谐的美妙乐章。
有了这种信念,我们就可以一同工作、一同祈祷、一同斗争、一同入狱、一同为自由而屹立不屈,因为我们深信自由的一天总会到来。
当我们让自由之声响起,让它回荡在每一村落、每一小镇、每一州、每一城市,那一天就离我们不远了。那时,上帝所有的子民,黑人和白人,犹太人和异教徒,新教徒和天主教徒都会牵起手来,唱着旧日黑人的圣歌:“终于自由了!终于自由了!感谢全能的主,我们终于自由了!”
 



Tomorrow and Tomorrow
By William Shakespeare
Tomorrow , and tomorrow , and tomorrow , Creeps in this petty pace from day to day , To the last syllable of recorded time ;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death .
Out , out , brief candle ;
Life’s but a walking shadow : a poor player , That struts and frets his hour upon the Stage , and then is heard no more : it is a Tale told by an idiot , full of sound and fury , Signifng nothing .







明日复明日
威廉·莎士比亚
William Shakespeare 威廉·莎士比亚(1564-1616),英国文艺复兴时期伟大的剧作家、诗人和思想家。其主要作品有37部戏剧,2首长诗,154首十四行诗。他的语言丰富有力,生动活泼。在他的剧本中往往韵散杂揉:散文、无韵诗、古体诗、轻快的民谣,无所不有。他善于用比喻、隐喻、双关语和戏言,他的讽刺尖锐而富有诗意。其代表作有《罗密欧与朱丽叶》、《威尼斯商人》、《哈姆雷特》、《奥塞罗》等。莎士比亚的作品不仅诗伊丽莎白时代文学的颠峰,同时也是英国乃至世界文学在相当长一个历史时期的颠峰。据说以英语为母语的国家,每个家庭起码拥有两部书:一部是《圣经》,另一部是《莎士比亚全集》。他的作品至70年代已被翻译成70多种文字,仅次于《圣经》。他的戏剧在近百个国家和地区上演。该篇选自《麦克白》第五幕第五场。

明天,明天,再一个明天,
一天接着一天地蹑步前行,
直到最后一秒钟的时间;
我们所有的昨天,
不过替傻子们照亮了到死亡的坟土中去的路。
熄灭了吧,熄灭了吧,短促的烛光!
人生不过是一个行走的影子,
一个在舞台上指手画脚的伶人。
登场一个愚人所讲述的故事,
充满了喧哗与骚动,
找不到一点意义。

我的信条
约翰·洛克菲勒
John D . Rockefeller约翰·洛克菲勒 (1839 -1937),美国企业家和慈善家,上个世纪全美最大、最著名的垄断财团洛克菲勒家族的创始人。他第一个认识到石油在工业中的重要意义,并在1870年建立了美孚石油公司。十年后,全美生产的石油95%是由美孚公司提炼的。同时,洛克菲勒冷酷无情的名声开始四处传扬。19世纪90年代,洛克菲勒走到人生的十字路口,前半身积累的财富已超过一亿美元,而且正在滚雪球似的增长。但他忽然搞不清是他主宰着金钱,还是金钱主宰着他。在一个叫弗雷德里克·盖茨的牧师的影响下,洛克菲勒终于由一个“奸商”转变成了慈善家,将大量的财产用于慈善事业。他成立了洛克菲勒医学研究所、普通教育委员会、洛克菲勒卫生委员会,这些都是全美最著名的社会公意机构。二十世纪早期,他把企业交给儿子小洛克菲勒(1874-1960)经营,自己致力于慈善事业。1910年,世界上最大的慈善事业——洛克菲勒基金会宣告成立。
  
我相信无上的个人价值,我相信人权和个人自由,以及人追求幸福的权利。
我相信每天一种权利都蕴涵着义务,每一次机遇都蕴涵着挑战,每一份拥有都蕴涵着的责任。
我相信法律是为人服务的,而不是人被法律所束缚;政府是人民的仆人,而不是主人。
我相信劳动的尊严,无论是脑力的还是体力的;世界没有义务养活每一个人,但是却给每一个人提供生存的机会。
我相信无论是对政府、实业还是个人财务,勤俭是使生活井井有条的关键,节约是财政稳固的首要条件。
我相信坚持真理和正义是稳定社会秩序的保证。
我相信诺言的神圣,人的诺言应当和契约合同一样有信用。人格的价值是最高的,而不是财富。权利或地位。
我相信,提供有益的服务是人类的基本义务,只有无私奉献的火焰才能让自私的残渣灰飞烟灭,这时,人类灵魂的伟大才能全部显现。
我相信至明、至爱、无论怎样形容都不过份的上帝。
我相信如果按照上帝的旨意生活,人生可以得到最大的满足,体会最真实的幸福,创造最高的价值。
我相信爱是最伟大的,只有爱才能够消除恨,正义能够而且必然战胜强权。
 

On Courtesy
By Frank S. Hogan
1.Courtous treatment is a recognition by one person that another person has the same dignity as a human being .
2.The practice of couresy develops the habit of treating others as equals .
3.It is , therefore ,more than a lubricant which prevents irritation between individuals of different background .
4.It becomes a solvent of the causes of friction and , when constantly applied , produces a positive force in the creation of good will .
5.Is that a little thing ? If so ,life is full of little things-full of small pains and petty griev-ances which little remedies can cure .






关于礼貌
弗兰克·霍根
Frank S. Hogan 弗兰克·霍根虽然是名不见经传的作家,但他这篇“关于礼貌”的短文不仅对儿童有着良好的教育意义,而且该篇的文字通俗而诙谐,不比喻生动而形象,实为一篇英文佳作。
以礼待人是对人格的尊重。
以礼待人使我们养成与人平等相处的习惯。
礼貌避免不同境遇地调人因分歧而相互愤懑,胜过任何调停。
礼貌将矛盾纷争化解于无形,天长日久,它成为我们实现美好愿望的助力。
礼貌是区区小事吗?如果是,生活本来就是充满着各种小事——充满着无法根治的小小痛苦和小小忧伤。











A Psalm of Life
By Hrnry Wadsworth Longfellow
1.Tell me not , in mournful numbers ,
Life is but an empty dream !
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem .
2.Life is real ! Life is earnest !
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art , to dust reurnest ,
Was not spoken of the soul .
3.Not enjoyment , and not sorrow ,
Is our destined end or way ;
But to act , that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day .
4.Art is long , and time is fleeting ,
And our hearts , though stout and brave ,
Still , like muffled drums , are beating
Funeral marches to the grave .
5.In the world’s broad field of battle ,
In the bivouac of life ,
Be not like dumb , driven cattle !
Be a hero in the strife !
6.Trust no future , howe’er pleasant !
  Let the dead past bury its dead !
  Act ,-act in the living present !
  Heart within , and God o’erhead !
7.Lives of great men all remind us
  We can make our lives sublime ,
  And , departing , leave behind us
  Footprints on the sands of time .
8.Footprints , that , perhaps another ,
  Sailing o’er life’s solemn main ,
  A forlorn and shipwrecked brother ,
  Seeing , shall take heart again .
9.Let us , then , be up and doing ,
  With a heart for any fate ;
  Still achieving , still pursuing ,
  Learn to labor and to wait .













人生颂
亨利·沃兹华斯·朗费罗
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 亨利·沃兹华斯·朗费罗(1807-1882),美国诗人。从小喜爱文学,十三岁即在报纸上发表第一篇诗作。曾先后到法国、西班牙、意大利和德国留学,研究语言文学。后在哈佛大学执教,逐渐成名。1839年出版了第一本诗集《夜籁》,其中包括本篇《人生颂》和《夜的赞歌》等。1841年出版《歌谣及其他》,收有名篇《金星号的遇难》、《乡下铁匠》等。他的代表作是印第安民族英雄史诗《哈依瓦撒之歌》(1855)。朗费罗的诗歌创作丰富多彩,题材广泛,思想深邃,语言凝练,具有较高的艺术价值。他主张艺术必须造福于人民,抱定“为人生而艺术”的宗旨,提出诗人的三项任务是“娱悦”、“鼓舞”、“教导”。他的诗篇具有高超的技巧和“美”的艺术魅力,其中不乏脍炙人口之作,并为普人理解和喜爱,因而成为美国家喻户晓的诗人。本篇是传诵一时的名篇,着得指出一个人要充分利用短暂的一生,自强不息,而不要沉浸于无谓的悔恨与沮丧,教育意味浓厚。
1、不要用忧伤的情调相告,人生只是虚梦一场!灵魂沉睡就是死亡,事务并非表面显示的那样。
2、人生真实存在!生活热忱!坟墓绝非人生终极之境;“来自尘土,归于尘土”,比喻的并非灵魂。
3、享受,忧伤都不是,我们的命运或途径;需要的是行动,让每一个明天看到我们比今天更先进。
4、艺术悠长,光阴似箭,我们的心,纵然勇毅不屈,依然像消音扪住的鼓,正在向茔墓敲奏葬曲。
5、世上广场的战场上,在人生寄宿的营幕之中,别像任人驱使为哑巴牲口!要争取作战中的英雄!
6、不要信任未来,不论怎样欢快!让消逝的过去把它的逝者掩埋!行动,行动起来,乘此活生生的现在!凭着内在的心,和头上的神明!
7、伟大的业绩足以鼓励,我们也能使生活高尚有意义,等到离去时,也在我们身后的时光细沙之上留下我们的足迹。
8、这些足迹,也许可以为其它一位在人生大海上航行的人,某位船只失事濒于绝望的弟兄提供借金,使他重新振起精神。
9、因此,让我们振作起来,付诸行动以一颗足以对付任何命运的心,不断地追求,不断地做出成绩,积极劳动,积极等候时机。



Man’s Guide
by Winston Churchill
1.Man in this moment of his history has emerged in greater supremacy over the forces of nature than has ever been dreamed of before . There lies before him , if he wishes , a golden age of peace and progress . He has only to conquer his last and worst enemy-himself .
2.The only guide to a man is his conscience ; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions . It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield , because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes , but with this shield , however the Fates’ may play , we march always in the ranks of honor .
3.We shall go forward together . The road upward is long . There are upon our journey dark and dangerous valleys through which we have to make and fight our way . But it is sure and certain that if we persevere , and we shall persevere , we shall come through these dark and dangerous valleys into a sunlight broader and more genial and more lasting than manking has ever known .


为人之道
温斯顿·丘吉尔
Winston Churchill 温斯顿·丘吉尔(1874-1965),英国著名政治家、作家、历史学家。出生贵族家庭。1894年毕业于桑赫斯特皇家军事学院。1908年起,历任贸易、内政、海军、军需、陆军、空军、殖民财政和国防大臣等职。1940-1945和1951-1955两度出任英国首相。在二战中,他是联合政府的领导人,表现了卓越的领导才能以及雄辩的口才。他提出并巩固了与一些国家特别是美国的结盟,取得了轴心国的胜利。丘吉尔不仅是个政治家,而且是个赫赫有名的文学家。他的著作颇丰,有自传《我的前半生》,两次世界大战的回忆录《世界的危机》和《第二次世界大战》以及《英雄诸民族史》等。1953年他以历史和传记著作以及许多精彩演说获得若贝尔文学奖。1955年卸任后,他仍然是一个令人崇敬的幕后人物。在他生命的最后几年,被称为“当代最伟大的英国人”。他获得世界范围的尊敬,不仅因为他是一个伟大的战略家,杰出的战时领导人,而且也因为他炉火纯情的英语演讲,他的颇有造诣的绘画,他的奥古斯都风格的写作,他的伟大思想和深沉的历史感。
历史走到今天,人类征服自然的强大力量是以往的任何梦想都难以企及的。只要愿意,人类可以创造一个和平发展的黄金时代。然而他必须征服他唯一但也是最险恶的敌人——人类自己。
唯一能指引我们的,是人类的良知;唯一能保护我们的行为的诚敬与公正。如果人生之路不以此为原则是不智的。因为我们常常因为事与愿违而受到命运的嘲弄,但是如果有了这样的为人之道,无论命运怎样波折,总不失我们做人的尊严。
我们应该携手前进。道路是漫长的,前程布满黑暗危险的深谷,我们必须自闯生路。但是可以肯定的是只要我们坚持,我们也必须坚持,我们一定能够走出黑暗,穿越险境,到达一个前所未有的、更为宽广、别具一格、充满生机而阳光灿烂的境地。







Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address
by Abraham Lincoln
1.Fourscore and seven years ago , our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new Nation , conceived in Liberty , and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.Now , we are engaged in a great Civil War , testing whether that Nation , or any nation so conceived and so dedicated , can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting – place for those who gave their lives that Nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
2.But , in a larger sense , we cannot dedicate , we cannot consecrate , we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men , living and dead , who struggled here , have , have conse-crated it far above our power to add ot detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here , but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us ,the living , rather to be dedicated to the great task renaining before us;that from these honored , we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion;that this Nation , under God , shall have a new birth of freedom;and that government of the People by the People and for the People shall not perish from the earth .
林肯的葛底斯堡演讲
亚伯拉罕.林肯
Abraham Lincoln 亚伯拉罕.林肯(1809-1865),美国第十六任总统(1861-1865)。他自修法律,以反对奴隶制的纲领当选为总统,导致南方诸州脱离联邦。在由此引起的南北战争(1861-1865)中,他作为总统,发挥了美国历史上最有效、最鼓舞人心的领导作用,以其坚定的信念、深远的眼光和完美无缺的政治手腕,成功地引导一个处于分裂的国家度过了其历史上流血最多的内战,从而换救了联邦。他致力于推进全人类的民主、自由和平等,以最雄辩的语言阐述了人道主义的思想,不失时机地发表《解放黑奴宣言》,因而被后人尊称为“伟大的解放者”。林肯不仅是一个伟大的总统,更是一个伟人。他出生于社会低层,具有勤劳简朴、谦虚和诚恳的美德。在美国历届总统中,林肯堪称是最平易近人的一位。林肯的著作主要是演讲词和书信,以朴素庄严、观点明确、思想丰富、表达灵活、适应对象并具有特殊的美国风味见称。此篇演讲是美国文学中最漂亮、最富有诗意的文章之一。虽然这是一篇庆祝军事胜利的演说,但它没有好战之气。相反,这是一篇感人肺腑的颂辞,赞美那些作出最后牺牲的人们,以及他们为之献身的那些理想。其中“政府应为民有、民治、民享”的名言被人们广为传颂。
八十七年前,我们先辈在这个大陆上创立了一个新国家,它孕育于自由之中,奉行一切人生来平等的原则。
我们正从事一场伟大的内战,以考验这个国家,或者任何一个孕育于自由和奉行上述原则的国家是否能够长久存在下去。我们在这场战争中的一个伟大战场上集会。烈士们为使这个国家能够生存下去而献出了自己的生命,我们来到这里,是要把这个战场的一部分奉献给他们作为最后安息之所。我们这样做是完全应该而且非常恰当的。
但是,从更广泛的意义上说,这块土地我们不能够奉献,不能够圣化,不能够神化。那些曾在这里战斗过的勇士们,活着的和去世的,已经把这块土地圣化了,这远不是我们微薄的力量所能增减的。我们今天在这里所说的话,全世界不大会注意,也不会长久地记住,但勇士们在这里所做过的事,全世界却永远不会忘记。毋宁说,倒是我们这些还活着的人,应该在这里把自己奉献于勇士们已经如此崇高地向前推进但尚未完成的事业。倒是我们应该在这里把自已奉献于仍然留在我们面前的伟大任务——我们要从这些光荣的死者身上吸取更多的献身精神,来完成他们已经完全彻底为之献身的事业;我们要在这里下定最大的决心,不让这些死者白白牺牲;我们要使国家在上帝福佑下自由的新生,要使这个民有、民治、民享的政府永世长存。





Stopping by The Woods
On a snowy Evening
by Robert Frost
1. 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 .
2.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 .
3. 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 .
4.The woods are lovely , dark , and deep ,
But I have promisee to keep ,
And miles to go before I sleep ,
And miles to go before I sleep .















雪夜憩幽林
罗伯特.弗罗斯特
Robert Frost罗伯斯.弗罗斯特(1874-1963),美国“桂冠诗人”。从小受能文善诗的母亲熏陶,博览群书,有志写诗。1912年,他的第一本诗集《孩子的意愿》在伦敦出版,立即受到英国评论家的好评。第二年出版诗集《波士顿以北》,从此蜚声大洋两岸诗坛。1915年回国,美国44所大学和学院相继授予他荣誉的名衔,聘请他讲学。1958年,美国国会图书馆聘任他为诗歌顾问。自1986年后,但任这一荣誉职位的即是美国的“桂冠诗人”。他一生四次获得普利策奖,被选为全国文学艺术委员会会员。晚年成了美国诗坛的泰斗,国会两次组织庆祝他生日的活动。1961年美国总统肯尼迪特邀他在总统就职典礼上吟诵自己的作品,并指排他出访苏联。从此弗罗斯特名扬国内外,对美国和西方产生很大影响。弗罗斯特的诗篇清新质朴,散发着浓郁的乡土气息和生活气息,以亲切的语调述说个人的感受,渗透了人生的智慧,把读者引向哲理性的思考境界,象《一条为走的路》等,在美国几乎家喻户晓,成为美国文学传统的一个组成部分。本篇被认为是雅俗共赏的杰作。
我想我认识,这是谁的树林,
虽然他的住屋是在村里,
他不会见到我在这里停憩,
欣赏他冰装素裹的林子充满雪意。
我的小马一定感到希奇,
我居然会在这里停憩,
林子,冰湖之间没有村落,
又在这一年最幽暗的雪夜里。
小马把马具铃摇了一摇,
询问是否有些莫名其妙,
其它的问音,只有——
安逸的夜风,和雪片飘摇。
林子幽暗、深邃、耐人寻味,
况且,我要实现若言:
入睡之前,再走几里,
入睡之前,还有几里要上前

My Lost Youth
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
1.Ofter I think of the beautiful town
That is seated by the sea;
Often in thought go up and down
The pleasant old streets
Of that dear old town ,
And my youth comes dack to me .
And the verse of a Lapland song
Is haunting my memory still:
‘A boy’s will is the wind’s will ,
And the thouhhts of youth
Are long , long thoughts .’
2.I can see the shadowy lines of its trees ,
And catch in sudden gieams ,
The sheen of the far-surrouning seas ,
And the islands that were the Hesperides
Of all my boyish dreams .
And the burden of that old song ,
It murmurs and whispers still:
‘A boy’s will is the wind’s will ,
And the thoughts of youth
Are long , long thoughts .











我失去的青春
亨利·华滋沃斯·朗费罗
Henry Wadsorth Longfellow亨利·华滋沃斯·朗费罗(1807-1882),美国诗人。作者简介见《人生颂》。
我时常怀念,
坐落海边的美丽小镇;
时常在沉思中,
在那旧日小镇的古老街渠上,
踽踽独行,
我以身心恢复了青春。
拉普兰的歌词
又在我记忆里萦绕:
“幼年的愿望是风的愿望,
而青春遐想,却无边的悠长,悠长。”
我还能见到那些遐想的朦胧线索,
在刹那晶莹的光芒中,
看到环绕远方,光华四射的海洋,
看到儿时梦幻中的金苹果岛了。
那支旧日歌谣还在娓娓嘟囔:
幼年的愿望是风的愿望,
而青春遐想,
却无边的悠长,悠长。”


Happiness and Contemplation
by Aristotle
If happiness is an activity in accordance will virtue , it is reasonable to assume that it is in accorsance with the highest virue , and this will be the virtue of the best part of us . Whether this the intellect or something else that we regard as naturally ruling and guiding us , and possessing insight into things noble and divineeither as being actually divine itself or as being more divine than any other part of us-it is the activity of this part , in accordance with the virtue proper to it , that will be perfect happinese .
For contemplation is both the highest form of activity (since the intellect is the highest thing in us , and the obhects that it apprehends are the highest thing that can be known) , and also it is the most continuous , because we are more capable of continuous contemplation than we are of any practical activity .
( From The Ethocs of Aristotle-Book X. Section vii. )





幸福和玄想
亚里士多德
Aristotle亚里士多德(公元前384-322年),希腊哲学家、科学家和物理学家、西方思想史上最有代表性的学者之一。他是柏拉图的学生,亚历山大大帝国的老师。他在公元前335年创立了雅典以外的书院。亚里士多德的作品如百科全书一般几乎涉及了人类知识的每一领域:哲学、逻辑学、历史、政治学、诗歌、数学、天文、生物学、医学、心理学、伦理学。他的绝大多数被保存下来的作品都是未曾发表的讲稿或为学生的教课书。即便是这些不完整的文集,无论从创造性、系统性、还是哲理性来说,都是非凡的。其著作有《工具论》、《物理学》、《形而上学》、《伦理学》、《政治学》、《诗学》等。他的作品不仅深深地影响了中世纪的哲学和伊斯兰教的哲学,而且也是西方科学文明的奠基石。
如果幸福是一种道德行为,则可以说它也是至德的行为,也可以说是我们天性中至善部分的行为。无论这是一种理性或是一种自然而然的规范并指引我们,让我们洞见高尚、神圣事物的一种东西,还是一种本身就神圣,比我们天性中任何部分都神圣的东西——只有这一部分的行为,这种恰如其分合乎道义的行为,才是完美的幸福。
所以玄想是最高的活动,(因为直觉理性是人最高至上的秉赋,而直觉理性所理解的也是最高级的事物),而人类活动中延绵最久的,也以玄想为最,因为人的思虑比其他行为都易持久。










True and False Simplicty
by Francois Fenelon
The soul of man can never be enslaved Save by its own infirmities ,nor freed Save by its very strength and own resolve And constant vision and supreme endeavor!
You will be free?
Then , courage , O my brother !
O let the soul stand in the open door
Of life and death and knowledge and desire And see the peaks of thought kindle with sunrise !
Then shall the soul return to rest no more , Nor harvest dreams in the dark field of sleep
Rather the soul shall go with great resolve To dwell at last upon the shining mountains In liberal converse will the eternal stars .




真伪辨
法国 弗朗索瓦·费讷隆
Francois Fenelon弗朗索瓦·费讷隆(1651-1715),法国作家。1685年被路易十四派往喀尔文教占优势的地区去传教,由于他的谨慎和仁慈的行为,成绩十分显著。1689年被任命为王孙勃艮第公爵的太傅。为教育性格顽劣、脾气古怪的王孙,他自编教材。其中著名的有《死者对话录》,书中让孔子、苏格拉底、柏拉图、亚里士多德等古人聚在一起,展开对德行、幸福、荣誉、爱国等问题的讨论。1693年,当选为法兰西学院院士。1699年,一个出版商未经同意出版了费讷隆的《忒勒马科斯历险记》。书中隐隐表达出对路易十四内外政策的不满,提出改革的要求,主张极端温和的君主政体,具有鲜明的民主倾向。费讷隆因此被消职消俸,赶回教区,其后一直隐居在康布雷。
人的心灵不会任人奴役,除非它自甘堕落;人的心灵也难以完全自由,除非它顽强果敢,并具有永久的觉性和坚忍不拔的毅力。
你能得到自由吗?
那么请鼓起勇气,我的兄弟!
让心灵面对生和死的考验,面对知识和欲望的诱惑,让心灵在初升的阳光中看清思想最激烈的矛盾与挣扎!
那么你的心灵将不再退缩,不再沉睡梦乡——它会更坚决地屹立于光芒四射的高山之颠,与永恒的星晨自由地对话了。








Kubla Khan or , a Vision In a Dream
by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
In Xanadu did kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph , the sacred river , ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea .
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round :
And there were gardens
Bright with sinuous rills ,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree ;
And here were forests ancient as the hills ,Enfolding sunny spots of greenery .
But oh !
That deep romantic chasm which slanted
Down the green hill
athwart a cedarn cover !
A savage place ! as holy and enchanted
As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover !
And from this chasm ,
With ceaseless turmoil seething ,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing ,
A mighty fountain momently was forced :
Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
Huge frgments vaulted like rebounding hail,Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher’s flail;And ’mid these dancing rocks
at once and ever
It flung up momently the sacred river .
Five miles meandering with a mazy motion
Through wood and dale the sacred river ran ,Then reached the cacerns
measureless to man ,
And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean :
And ’mid this tumult Kubla heard from far
Ancestral voices prophesying war !
The shadow of the dome of pleasure
Floated midway on the waves ;
Where was heard the mingled measure
From the fountain and the caves .
It was miracle of rare device ,
A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice!
A damsrl with a dulcimer
In a vision once I saw :
It was an Abysinian maid ,
And on her dulcimer she played ,
Singing of Mount Abora .
Could I revive within me
Her symohony and song ,
To such a deep delight ’twould win me ,
That with music loud and long ,
I would build that dome in air ,
That sunny dome ! those caves of ice !
And all who heard should see them there ,
And all should cry , Beware ! Beware !
His flashing eyes , his floating hair !
Weave a circle round him thrice ,
And close your eyes with holy dread ,
For he on honey-dew hath fed ,
And drunk the milk of Paradise .







忽必列大汗,梦中呓语
沙缪·泰勒·科勒里奇
samuel Taylor Coleridge沙缪·泰勒·科勒理奇(1772-1834),英国诗人,批评家、哲学家。出生于牧师家庭,就读于剑桥。受法国大革命的影响,参加龙骑兵,又去美国寻找类似共产主义社会的世外桃源,不久后回到英国教书并做记者。1795年与威廉·沃兹华斯结识,两人结成深厚的友谊,他与沃兹华斯合著的《抒情歌谣集》出版于1798年,标志着英国浪漫主义的兴起。1817年发表的《文学传记》是他的主要评论著作。1818年他作了一系列关于莎士比亚的讲演,后收集为《关于莎士比亚的讲演》一书,至今仍为研究莎士比亚学者所重视。他诗作不多,但在文学史上却占有重要地位。其代表作《老船夫之歌》、《克力斯特贝尔》和本篇《忽必列大汗》都浸润着浓厚的浪漫主义色彩,把真实和幻想,平凡的细节和富于诗意的象征交织在一起。他善于以自然逼真的形象和对环境的描写表现超自然的、神秘的、浪漫的内容,读来令人感到真实可信。

忽必列大汗在汉纳都颁令:
修建富丽堂皇的娱乐拱厅,
在神圣阿尔夫河流经,
世人莫测高深的巨大山洞,汇入无阳海的地方。

十英里的沃土,
其中的围墙,高塔都被圈进,
川及清清细流所美化了的庭院,
园中香花盛开的树木,
和与山丘一样古老的绿林,
簇拥着的,阳光耀眼的绿化景点。

但是,哎呀!
那一个从苍翠山丘斜面裂开的,
深遂的,浪沥不经的巨大缝隙,
在一片松木林掩复之下,横过底层,
一个野蛮而神圣的消魂处所!
一个有妇女们在弯月下经常彷徨,
为她们邪恶情人而痛哭号啕的地方!

由于无休止的骚扰,
仿佛地面在急速地火口喘息,
从这个断裂处所,
不久开出了一条大水泉,
在一些迅速地时发时止的崩陷之中,
巨大石块像筛谷链枷上的粗谷铺天盖地而来,
于是在这些岩石狂舞的狂风之中,
神圣的河流,一劳永逸地,
被掀了起来。

圣河汹涌澎湃,
冲过树林,幽谷,曲折了五里,
流入那难测高深的大洞穴,
混乱地陷进一片了无生机的洪涛之中;
而忽必烈,于这一片骚乱之中,
听到了从远处传来的,
他的远祖所予示的征讨令!

娱乐拱厅的形象,
在狂涛中途漂浮,
其中听到了水泉和洞穴,
所形成的混合地层,
这是一种奇迹般的,离奇设计,
一个镶着晶莹冰洞的阳光娱乐拱厅!
一位抱着洋琴的姑娘,
像一次我幻觉中所见到的那样,
一位阿比西尼亚姑娘,
演奏着她的琴,
唱着阿伯亚山。

若能使当时情素在内心再现,
让她的和弦和歌声再次上演,
那么,一定会赢得我由衷的赞许,
在那种激扬,悠长的音乐中,
我就会在空中建起那座圆拱大厅,
那一座阳光四射的拱厅,和那些冰眼!

而所有听到的人也会看见,
也都会惊呼:当心!提防呀!
提防他那闪光的双眼,他飘扬的头发!
它们在他头上绕起三道圆光,
以莫大的恐惧闭上你眼前吧,
因为,他是蜜露滋养大的,
            是畷饮天堂的乳液成长起来的。

Spring
            --Thomas Nash

Spring, the sweet Spring, is the year's pleasant king;
Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing;
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!


The palm and may make country houses gay,
Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day,
And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!


The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,
Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit:
In every street these tunes our ears do greet:
Cuckoo, jug-,pu-we, to-witta-woo!
Spring, the sweet spring!

Joyce Kilmer. 1886&ndash;1918Trees I THINK that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;A tree that looks at God all day, 5 And lifts her leafy arms to pray;A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair;Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. 10 Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.

I Meant to Do My Work Today
Richard Le Gallienne

I MEANT to do my work to-day -
But a brown bird sang in the apple-tree
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.


And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand -
So what could I do but lanugh and go?

Persevere

The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
  Won't have any fish to sell;
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
  Won't learn any lessons well.

If you would have your learning stay,
  Be patient, - don't learn to fast:
The man who travels a mile each day,
  May get round the world at last.

The Arrow And The Song   箭与歌

  (1)

  I shot an arrow in the air, 我向空中射了一箭,

  It fell to earth, I knew not where; 它已落到地面,我不知道其去向;

  For so swiftly it flew, the sight 因它飞得如此地快速

  Could not follow it in its flight. 视力无法跟得上它的飞驰。

  (2)

  I breathed a song into the air, 我向空中轻歌一曲,

  It fell to earth, I knew not where; 它已落地而停,我不知其去向;

  For who has sight so keen and strong, 谁有这么敏锐的视力,

  That it can follow the flight of song? 能跟得上歌声的飞驰?

  (3)

  Long, long afterward, in an oak 很久,很久以后,在一棵橡树上,

  I found the arrow still unbroke; 我发现它依然完好无损;

  And the song, from beginning to end, 而这首歌,从头到尾,

  I found again in the heart of a friend. 我发现又深印在一位友人的心上。

A lovely child Wash your face and hands with care, Change your shoes, and brush your hair; Then so fresh, and clean and neat,Come and take your proper seat;Do not loiter and be late. Making other people wait; Do not rudely point or touch; Do not eat and drink too much; Finish what you have before; You even ask or sendfor more;Never crumble or destroy Food that others might enjoy; They who idly crumbs will waste Often want a loaf to taste!Never spill your milk or tea, Never rude or noisy be;Never choose the daintiest food, Be content with what is good: Seek in all things that you can To be a lovely child. 此帖由 tiantian03 在 2005-10-25 14:53 进行编辑...

The little red hen
录制于2004年8月
   
     1.A little red hen once found a grain of wheat.&quot;Who will plant this wheat?&quot; she said.

    &quot;I won't,&quot; says the dog.

    &quot;I won't,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;Then I will,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     2.So she planted the grain of wheat.Very soon the wheat began to grow and the green leaves came out of the ground. The sun shone and the rain fell and the wheat kept on growing until it was tall,strong,and ripe.

     3. &quot;Who will reap this wheat?&quot; says the little red hen.

      &quot;I won't,&quot; says the dog.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;Then I will,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     So she reaped the wheat.

    4. &quot;Who will thresh this wheat?&quot; says the little red hen.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the dog.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;I will,then,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     So she threshed the wheat.

     5. &quot;Who will take this wheat to mill to have it ground?&quot; says the little red hen.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the dog.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;I will,then,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     So she took the wheat to mill, and by and by she came back with the flour.

     6. &quot;Who will bake this flour?&quot; says the little red hen.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the dog.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I won't,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;I will,then,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     So she baked the flour and made a loaf of bread.

     7. &quot;Who will eat this bread?&quot; says the little red hen.

     &quot;I will,&quot; says the dog.

     &quot;I will,&quot; says the cat.

     &quot;I will,&quot; says the pig.

     &quot;I will,&quot; says the turkey.

     &quot;No, I will,&quot; says the little red hen.&quot;Cluck! cluck!&quot;

     8. And she ate up the loaf of bread.

The Tortoise and the Hare
录制于2004年8月
   
     1. A hare once made fun of a tortoise. &quot;What a slow way you have!&quot; he said. &quot;How you creep along!&quot;

      &quot;Do I?&quot;  said the tortoise. &quot;Try a race with me and I'll beat you.&quot;

     &quot;What a boaster you are!&quot; said the hare. &quot; But come! I will race with you. Whom shall we ask to mark off the finish line and see that the race is fair?&quot;

      &quot; Let us ask the fox.&quot; said the tortoise.

      2. The fox was very wise and fair. He showed them where they were to start, and how far they were to run.

      The tortoise lost no time. He started out at once and jogged straight on.

      3. The hare leaped along swiftly for a few minutes till he had left the tortoise far behind. He knew he could reach the mark very quickly, so he lay down by the road under a shady tree and took a nap.

      By and by he woke and remembered the race. He sprang up and ran as fast as he could. But when he reached the mark, the tortoise was already there!

      4. &quot;Slow and steady wins the race,&quot;said the fox.

The Lion And The Mouse Once when a lion was asleepa little mouse began running up and down upon him; this soon wakened the lion, who placed his huge paw wpon him, and opened his big jaws to swallow him. &ldquoardon, O king.&rdquo;crued the little mouse:&rdquo;forgive me this time, I shall never forget it: who knows but what I may be able to do you a turn some of these days?&rdquo; the lion was so tickled at the idea of the mouse behind able to help him, that he lifted up his paw and let him go. Some time after the lion was caught in a trap, and the hunters who desired to carry him alive to the king, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a sack to carryhim on. Just then the little mouse happened to pass by, and seeing rhe sad plight in which in which the lion was, went up to him and soon guawed away the ropes that bound the king of the beasts. This fable told us : Little friends may prove gread friends. The boy who cried Wolf -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was once a Shepard boy who watched a flock of sheep on a small hill near the village. One day he got bored and couldn't resist but to cry out &quot;The wolf is here! The wolf is here!&quot; The villagers frantically grabbed their weapons and ran to the top of the hill only to find the Shepard boy laughing. The boy did this again and again, and the village people would run up to the hill again and again. This made the people very mad. One day a wolf really did come to the hill, the Shepard boy called for help, but the village people did not come to his aid thinking that it was just a prank again. The wolf ate all the sheep and the Shepard boy never cried wolf again.此帖由 tiantian03 在 2005-10-25 15:20 进行编辑...

西方文化导读第三册Iremember, I remember (1)  I remember, I remember 我忆起,我忆起  The house where I was born, 那栋出生时的屋宇,  the little window where the sun 早晨,阳光从小窗中  Came peeping in at morn: 偷望进去:  He never came a wink too soon, 他从不早来片刻,  Nor brought too long a day, 也不多留半晌,  But now, I often wish the night 但是现在,我常愿夜晚  Had borne my breath away! 带走我的呼吸!  (2)  I remember, I remember 我忆起,我忆起  The roses, red and white, 玫瑰花开,有红有白  The vi'lets, and the lily-cups, 紫罗兰,百合  Those flowers made of light! 那些由光辉构成的花朵!  The lilacs where the robin built, 有知更鸟筑巢的紫丁香,  And where my brother set 有哥哥生日时  The laburnum on his birthday,-- 种植的金炼花,--  The tree is living yet! 依然常青!  (3)  I remember, I remember 我忆起,我忆起  Where I was used to swing 经常荡秋千的地方  and thought the air must rush as fresh 迎面而来的风是如此清爽  To swallows on the wing; 飞燕也颇有同感;  My spirit flew in feathers then, 昔日意气扬扬的心灵,  That is so heavy now, 现在变得如此沉重,  And summer pools could hardly cool 就是夏日的池水也无法冷却  The fever on my brow! 我额头的热狂!  (4)  I remember, I remember 我忆起,我忆起  The fir trees dark and high; 茂密高耸的冷杉;  I used to think their slender tops 我曾想象它细长的枝尖  Were close against the sky; 逼近天空;  It was a childish ignorance, 虽然只是幼稚无知,  But now 'tis little joy 但是,现在却少有那般快乐  To know I'm farther off from heav'n 因为我知道自己比孩童时代  Than when I was a boy! 离苍穹更遥远了!  ~~~by Thomas Hood, 1799-1845

The best companion is one who is wiser and better than ourselves, for we are inspired by his wisdom and virtue to nobler deeds.&quot;Keep good company, and you shall be one of the number,&quot; said George Herbert. &quot;A man is known by the company he keeps.&quot; Character makes character in the associations of life faster than anything else. This fact makes the choice of companions in early life more important even than that of teachers and guardians.Companionship is education, good or bad; it develops manhood or womanhood, high or low; it lifts the soul upward or drags it downward; it ministers to virtue or vice. Sow virtue, and the harvest will be virtue. Sow vice, and the harvest will be vice. Good companions help us to sow virtue; evil companions help us to sow vice.by William Makepeace Thayer&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;&mdash;</div>

<font color="#0000ff" size="6">Success There are no secrets of success. Success is doing the things you know you shoulddo. Success is not doing the things you know you should not do.Success is not confined to any one part of your personality but is related tothe development of all the parts: body, mind, heart, and spirit. It is makingthe most of your total self.Success is ninety-nine precent mental attitude. It calls for love, joy,optimism, confidence, serenity, poise, faith, courage, cheerfulness, imagination, initiative, tolerance, honesty, humility, patience, and enthusiasm.Success is not arriving at the summit of a mountain as a final destination. Itis a continuing upward spiral of progress. It is a perpetual growth.Success is having the courage to meet failure without being defeated. It isrefusing to let present loss interfere with your long-range goal.  &mdash;&mdash;Wilferd A.

But how can you buy or sell the sky? the land? The idea is strange to us. If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them?<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Every part of the earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow, every humming insect. All are holy in the memory and experience of my people.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">We know the sap which courses through the trees as we know the blood that courses through our veins. We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumed flowers are our sisters. The bear, the deer, the great eagle, these are our brothers. The rocky crests, the dew in the meadow, the body heat of the pony, and man all belong to the same family.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">The shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is not just water, but the blood of our ancestors. If we sell you our land, you must remember that it is sacred. Each glossy reflection in the clear waters of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people. The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">The rivers are our brothers. They quench our thirst. They carry our canoes and feed our children. So you must give the rivers the kindness that you would give any brother.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">If we sell you our land, remember that the air is precious to us, that the air shares its spirit with all the life that it supports. The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also received his last sigh. The wind also gives our children the spirit of life. So if we sell our land, you must keep it apart and sacred, as a place where man can go to taste the wind that is sweetened by the meadow flowers.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Will you teach your children what we have taught our children? That the earth is our mother? What befalls the earth befalls all the sons of the earth.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">This we know: the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">One thing we know: our God is also your God. The earth is precious to him and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator.<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Your destiny is a mystery to us. What will happen when the buffalo are all slaughtered? The wild horses tamed? What will happen when the secret corners of the forest are heavy with the scent of many men and the view of the ripe hills is blotted with talking wires? Where will the thicket be? Gone!

我一直想找这套书的PDF文本,WORD虽然很方便打印,但是之中总有一些错误或者我也拿不准的地方,怕误导孩子了。不过有WORD版本我也很知足了.
作者: szbanban    时间: 2008-2-10 18:02
很喜欢,正在到处找文本呢,记下来先
作者: luosiyuan    时间: 2008-4-19 16:24
