　　英語美文摘抄（一）

英語美文摘抄

　　We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I d know better.

　　I d really like for them to know about hand-me-down clothes and home-made ice cream and leftover meatloaf. I really would.

　　My cherished grandson, I hope you learn humility by surviving failure and that you learn to be honest even when no one is looking.

　　I hope you learn to make your bed and mow the lawn and wash the car-and I hope nobody gives you a brand-new car when you are sixteen.

　　It will be good if at least one time you can see a baby calf born, and you have a good friend to be with you if you ever have to put your old dog to sleep.

　　I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in.

　　I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother. And it is all right to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he s scared, I hope you ll let him.

　　And when you want to see a Disney movie and your kid brother wants to tag along, I hope you take him.

　　I hope you have to walk uphill with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely.

　　If you want a slingshot, I hope your father teaches you how to make one instead of buying one. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books, and when you learn to use computers, you also learn how to add and subtract in your head.

　　I hope you get razzed by friends when you have your first crush on a girl, and that when you talk back to your mother you learn what Ivory soap tastes like.

　　May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on the stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole.

　　I hope you get sick when someone blows smoke in your face. I don t care if you try beer once, but I hope you won t like it. And if a friend offers you a joint or any drugs, I hope you are smart enough to realize that person is not your friend.

　　I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your grandpa or go fishing with your uncle.

　　I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through a neighbor s window, and that she hugs you and kisses you when you give her a plaster of pared mold of your hand.

　　These things I wish for you-tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness.

　　爺爺?shù)钠谕浅：唵?幸福快樂就好

　　我們竭盡全力想讓我們的兒女們過得更好，而結(jié)果卻是適得其反。對我的孫輩們，我就明智得多了。

　　我真的希望他們能夠了解什么是兄長傳下來的舊衣服，家制的冰淇淋，以及吃剩的肉糕。我真的希望。

　　我的寶貝孫子，我希望你在經(jīng)受失敗的考驗之后能學(xué)會謙卑，也希望你能學(xué)會誠實，即使在沒有人注視你的時候。

　　我希望你能學(xué)會自己疊被子，自己刈草坪，自己洗車--我還希望在你滿十六歲時沒有人送給你一輛嶄新的轎車。

　　假如你至少有一次機會看見小牛犢出生，假如你不得不為你的老狗送終，那時有一位好朋友在場為你作伴--那樣該有多好啊！

　　我希望你能為自己的所信仰與人斗得眼青臉腫。

　　我希望你能和你弟弟共一間臥室--即使你在臥室中間劃一條分界線也沒關(guān)系。可是，當?shù)艿芤驗楹ε露肋M你的被窩時，我希望你會接納他。

　　當你要出去看迪斯尼電影，你的小弟弟想做你的小尾巴時，我希望你能帶上他。

　　我希望你能和朋友們一起爬山，而在你所生活的城市里做這項運動不會有什么危險。

　　如果你想要一把彈弓，我希望你父親能教你怎樣自己做一把，而不是為你買一把現(xiàn)成的。我還希望你能學(xué)會挖泥巴和讀書；而當你學(xué)會使用電腦時，你也應(yīng)該學(xué)會加減法的心算。

　　當你第一次戀上一個女孩時，我希望你會受到朋友們的嘲弄；而當你跟你母親頂嘴時，希望她叫你嘗一嘗象牙肥皂的滋味。

　　但愿你能在爬山時弄破膝蓋上的皮，或者在爐子上燒傷手，或者讓舌頭粘在結(jié)冰的旗桿上。

　　我希望吸煙者對著你的臉上噴吐煙霧時，你會感到惡心。如果你嘗試喝一次啤酒，我不會在意；但是我希望你不會喜歡上它。如果有一位朋友請你吸一口含大麻的香煙，或者任何毒品，我希望你明智地意識到他不是你的朋友。

　　我當然希望你能抽時間來陪你爺爺在門廊上坐一坐，或者陪你叔叔釣釣魚。

　　如果你把捧球扔進了鄰居的窗戶，我希望你母親懲罰你。如果你能剪掉指甲，用石膏做一只自己的手的模型送給你媽，我希望她會給你擁抱和親吻。

　　我希望你能經(jīng)歷：艱難的歲月，挫折和失望；希望你努力工作，幸�？鞓�。

　　英語美文摘抄（二）

　　Learning:A Lifelong Career

　　As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.

　　Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.

　　學(xué)習(xí)：一生的事業(yè)（學(xué)習(xí)無止境，只有努力，努力，再努力，才會成功）

　　學(xué)習(xí)之于心靈，就像食物之于身體一樣。攝取了適量的營養(yǎng)食物，我們的身體得以生長而肌肉得以發(fā)達。同樣地，我們應(yīng)該日復(fù)一日不斷地學(xué)習(xí)以保持我們敏銳的心智能力，并擴充我們的智力容量。不斷的學(xué)習(xí)提供我們用不盡的燃料，來驅(qū)使我們磨利我們的推理、分析和判斷的能力。持續(xù)的學(xué)習(xí)是在信息時代中跟時代并駕齊驅(qū)的最穩(wěn)當?shù)姆椒ǎ彩窃谧儎拥氖来谐晒Φ目煽勘ＷC。

　　一旦學(xué)習(xí)停止，單調(diào)貧乏的生活就開始了。視學(xué)校為汲取知識的唯一場所是種常見的謬誤。相反地，學(xué)習(xí)應(yīng)該是一種無終止的歷程，從生到死。由于世界一直快速地在變動，只要學(xué)習(xí)停頓數(shù)日就將使人落后。更糟的是，蟄伏在我們潛意識深處的獸性本能就會復(fù)活，削弱我們追求高貴理想的意志，弱化我們掃除成功障礙的決心，而且扼殺我們凈化我們?nèi)烁竦挠�。缺少學(xué)習(xí)將不可避免地導(dǎo)致心靈的停滯，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因此，為了保持心理年輕，我們必須將學(xué)習(xí)當作一生的事業(yè)。

　　英語美文摘抄（三）

　　heavy schoolwork

　　In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded adults. High should be allowed more time for play. Playing is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercises their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole.

　　課業(yè)繁重

　　我認為目前高中生的課業(yè)實在太重了，雖然說學(xué)生的確應(yīng)當念書，但是要想長大成為健全的人，他門還需要一些其它的東西，所以應(yīng)該給高中生較多從事娛樂的時間。娛樂并不如某些人所想的，是在浪費時間，它可以讓學(xué)生鍛煉身體，發(fā)揮被繁重課業(yè)扼殺的想象力。最后，繁重的課業(yè)加諸在高中生身上的壓力可能引起嚴重的情緒緊張，這對身心都有害。我并非主張廢除學(xué)校課業(yè)，但是我認為減輕目前繁重的課業(yè)對于學(xué)生和整個社會都是有益的。

　　英語美文摘抄（四）

　　Time

　　Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.

　　Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.

　　時間

　　時光一去不復(fù)返，這是我上學(xué)期清楚學(xué)到的教訓(xùn)。我浪費很多時間四處游蕩，以致于我的成績開始退步。最后我終于了解到我必須有所作為；該是痛改前非的時候了。

　　現(xiàn)在我有一個明智運用時間的新方法。我已將鬧鐘早撥半小時，這將使我這一天的作息提前開始。我也決定將我所做的一切及做這些事的時間記錄下來。回顧我所做的事情會啟發(fā)我如何重新安排我的時間。

　　英語美文摘抄（五）

　　Work and Play

　　Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions.

　　What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing movies. Usually I don't spare time for exercise, but I value the physical education class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's pressure. On weekends, I'll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week's work-load.

　　工作與娛樂

　　工作與娛樂并不互相沖突，事實上，它們之間的關(guān)系還相輔相成。有句格言說：「整日工作而沒有休閑娛樂，會令人變得沉悶乏味。」被工作重擔(dān)壓得喘不過氣來的生活，將使你一事無成，因為你將對一成不變的例行公事感到厭煩。由另一方面來說，適度的娛樂活動能提供各種管道，來渲泄你被壓抑的情緒，減輕單調(diào)生活中的緊張與不悅。

　　放學(xué)之后，我最常做的休閑活動，便是慢跑與看電影。通常我并不特地撥出時間來做運動，但是我很重視學(xué)校的體育課。在操場上慢跑幾圈，無疑地可以減輕一天的壓力。在周末時，我都去看早場電影，享受視覺盛宴。如此一來，我將有如再生般的充沛活力，去面對下一星期的工作量。

　　英語美文摘抄（六）

　　My first Job

　　My first job was at a cramming school. It was three years ago when I just graduated from junior high school and finished the entrance examination. since I had nothing to do that summer, I decided to find a job, tasting the joy of independence.

　　I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the message. I worked eight hours a day, six days a week. The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did well. The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by myself.

　　我的第一份工作

　　我的第一份工作是在一家補習(xí)班做事。那是三年前我剛從國中畢業(yè)，考完聯(lián)考時的事了。既然我那整個夏天都閑著沒事，倒不如找份差事，嘗嘗獨立賺錢的快樂。

　　我負責(zé)接聽電話且紀錄留言的工作。我一天工作八小時，一星期工作六天。那份工作對我而言既不困難亦不沉重，所以我想我還滿稱職的。而最令人快樂的事大概莫過于花全部由自己賺來的錢了！

　　英語美文摘抄（七）

　　My Favorite Sports

　　Sports help everyone to keep healthy, happy, and efficient. So I pay special attention to games, especially table-tennis. Table tennis is my favorite game. I play it almost every day.

　　Table-tennis is an ideal game for us because it brings the whole body into action. It strengthens our muscles, expands our lungs, promotes the circulation of the blood, and causes a healthy action of the skin. Besides, it is very amusing and does not cost us much money. Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as football. It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy days. Thus, it is my favorite kind of exercise.

　　我最喜愛的運動

　　運動能幫助每一個人保持健康、快樂和有效率。所以我特別重視運動，特別是桌球，桌球是我最喜歡的運動。我?guī)缀趺刻焱妗?/p>

　　桌球?qū)ξ覀兌�，是一項理想的運動，因為它可以使我們?nèi)磉\動，它可以增強我們的肌肉，擴張我們的肺部，促進血液循環(huán)，并且使肌膚產(chǎn)生健康作用，此外，它很有趣而且所費不多。桌球是相當溫和適中的，它不像足球那么粗野。它是一種室內(nèi)運動，甚至在下雨天也能玩。因此，桌球是我最喜愛的一種運動。

　　The City Mouse and the Country Mouse

　　Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."

　　The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.

　　After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."

　　城里老鼠和鄉(xiāng)下老鼠

　　從前，有兩只老鼠，它們是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在鄉(xiāng)村，另一只住在城里。很多年以后，鄉(xiāng)下老鼠碰到城里老鼠，它說："你一定要來我鄉(xiāng)下的家看看。"于是，城里老鼠就去了。鄉(xiāng)下老鼠領(lǐng)著它到了一塊田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出來給城里老鼠。城里老鼠說："這東西不好吃，你的家也不好，你為什么住在田野的地洞里呢？你應(yīng)該搬到城里去住，你能住上用石頭造的漂亮房子，還會吃上美味佳肴，你應(yīng)該到我城里的家看看。"

　　鄉(xiāng)下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的東西也為他們擺好了�？墒钦斔麄円_始吃的時候，聽見很大的一陣響聲，城里的老鼠叫喊起來："快跑！快跑！貓來了！"他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來。

　　過了一會兒，他們出來了。當他們出來時，鄉(xiāng)下老鼠說："我不喜歡住在城里，我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因為這樣雖然貧窮但是快樂自在，比起雖然富有卻要過著提心吊膽的生活來說，要好些。"

　　英語美文摘抄（十）

　　But the teacher cried

　　The six-year-old John was terribly spoiled . His father knew it, but his grandma doted on him. He hardly left her side. And when he wanted anything, he either cried or threw a temper tantrum. Then came his first day of school, his first day away from his grandmother's loving arms.

　　When he came home from school his grandma met him at the door.

　　"Was school all right?" she asked, "Did you get along all right? did you cry?"

　　"Cry?" John asked. "No, I didn't cry, but the teacher did!"

　　約翰放學(xué)了，他奶奶在門口接他并問道："學(xué)校怎么樣？你過的好嗎？哭了沒有？"
