A box full ofkisses
装满吻的盒子
The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy.”
有这样一个故事，爸爸因为三岁的女儿浪费了一卷金色的包装纸而惩罚了她。家里很缺钱，当孩子想要用包装纸装饰一个挂在圣诞树上的盒子时，爸爸生气了。然而，第二天早上小女孩把盒子作为礼物送给了爸爸，“这是给你的，爸爸。”
The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled at her, stating, "Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside? The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, "Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. They're all for you, Daddy."
女儿的这个行为让爸爸感到尴尬。但是当他发现盒子是空的时候，他的怒火再一次燃烧了。他对女儿喊道，“难道你不知道给别人礼物的时候，里面应该放有东西吗?”多女孩抬头看着父亲，眼里含着泪水，“爸爸，盒子不是空的。我把吻放在了盒子里，都是给你的，爸爸。”
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
爸爸感动极了，他搂住女儿，恳请她的原谅。之后不久，一场事故夺走了小女孩的生命。据说，父亲便将那个小金盒子放在床头，一直陪伴着他的余生。无论何时他感到气馁或者遇到难办的事情，他就会打开礼盒，取出一个假想的吻，记起漂亮女儿给予了自己特殊的爱。
In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans beings, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses... from our children, family members, friends, and God. There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.
从一个非常真实的意义上说，我们每个人都被赠与过一个无形的金色礼盒，那里面装满了来自子女，家人，朋友及上帝无条件的爱与吻。人们所能拥有的最珍贵的礼物莫过于此了。

Three Days to See(Excerpts)假如给我三天光明(节选)
Three Days to See
All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year, sometimes as short as 24 hours. But always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed hero chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited.
Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. What events, what experiences, what associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings, what regrets?
Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the Epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry”. But most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death.
In stories the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune, but almost always his sense of values is changed. He becomes more appreciative of the meaning of life and its permanent spiritual values. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do.
Most of us, however, take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista. So we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life.
The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sounds hazily, without concentration and with little appreciation. It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it, of not being conscious of health until we are ill.
I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him more appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.
我们都读过震撼人心的故事，故事中的主人公只能再活一段很有限的'时光，有时长达一年，有时却短至一日。但我们总是想要知道，注定要离世人的会选择如何度过自己最后的时光。当然，我说的是那些有选择权利的自由人，而不是那些活动范围受到严格限定的死囚。
这样的故事让我们思考，在类似的处境下，我们该做些什么?作为终有一死的人，在临终前的几个小时内我们应该做什么事，经历些什么或做哪些联想?回忆往昔，什么使我们开心快乐?什么又使我们悔恨不已?
有时我想，把每天都当作生命中的最后一天来边，也不失为一个极好的生活法则。这种态度会使人格外重视生命的价值。我们每天都应该以优雅的姿态，充沛的精力，抱着感恩之心来生活。但当时间以无休止的日，月和年在我们面前流逝时，我们却常常没有了这种子感觉。当然，也有人奉行“吃，喝，享受”的享乐主义信条，但绝大多数人还是会受到即将到来的死亡的惩罚。
在故事中，将死的主人公通常都在最后一刻因突降的幸运而获救，但他的价值观通常都会改变，他变得更加理解生命的意义及其永恒的精神价值。我们常常注意到，那些生活在或曾经生活在死亡阴影下的人无论做什么都会感到幸福。
然而，我们中的大多数人都把生命看成是理所当然的。我们知道有一天我们必将面对死亡，但总认为那一天还在遥远的将来。当我们身强体健之时，死亡简直不可想象，我们很少考虑到它。日子多得好像没有尽头。因此我们一味忙于琐事，几乎意识不到我们对待生活的冷漠态度。
我担心同样的冷漠也存在于我们对自己官能和意识的运用上。只有聋子才理解听力的重要，只有盲人才明白视觉的可贵，这尤其适用于那些成年后才失去视力或听力之苦的人很少充分利用这些宝贵的能力。他们的眼睛和耳朵模糊地感受着周围的景物与声音，心不在焉，也无所感激。这正好我们只有在失去后才懂得珍惜一样，我们只有在生病后才意识到健康的可贵。
我经常想，如果每个人在年轻的时候都有几天失时失聪，也不失为一件幸事。黑暗将使他更加感激光明，寂静将告诉他声音的美妙。
精美英语散文 篇3
I remember quite clearly now when the story happened. The autumn leaves were floating in 1)measure down to the ground, recovering the lake, where we used to swim like children, under the sun was there to shine. That time we used to be happy. Well, I thought we were. But the truth was that you had been 2)longing to leave me, not daring to tell me. On that precious night, watching the lake, vaguely 3)conscious, you said: “Our story is ending.”
The rain was killing the last days of summer. You had been killing my last breath of love, since a long time ago. I still don’t think I’m gonna make it through another love story. You took it all away from me. And there I stand, I knew I was going to be the one left behind. But still I’m watching the lake, vaguely conscious, and I know my life is ending.
我仍清晰地记得故事发生的时候。秋叶翻飞，飘落一地。我们曾经孩子般戏水畅游过的小湖盖满落叶，在太阳下闪着光。那时我们幸福过。哦，我是这样认为的。可事实上你早就想离开我，只是不敢告诉我罢了。在那美丽的夜晚，眼望湖水，恍惚中听见你说：我们的故事已到尽头。
雨水扼杀着所剩无几的夏日，而你很久以来也在扼杀我奄奄一息的爱。我仍不认为自己会再去经历另一段爱情故事。你把一切都带走了。我只有悄然伫立，早已明白自己将会是那个被遗弃的人。而我依然凝望着湖水，恍惚中，生命正离我而去。
精美英语散文 篇4
我喜欢温和的一切，我希望一切都是温和的。
我希望天空是温和的，不暴烈，不阴翳。阳光四季和煦地洒照大地，冰霜消融，草绿花馨，百鸟鸣啭，心境明朗。
即便是下雨，我也希望是温和的雨丝伴随轻盈的风，拂面掠额之际，带来一缕似水柔情。
我希望每张脸上都有温和的笑容，冷笑、讥笑、讪笑都在真诚的氛围中悄然消散。一颗颗坦然仁爱的心灵，可以温和地交流。
我希望一切问题都以温和的方式解决，不消极、不冲动、不偏颇。态度和语言都是温和的，相待、相谈，既没有拒人于千里之外的冷漠，又没有笑里藏刀的虚伪。
让心中的冰凌和脸颊的霜雪在温和中溶化了吧。让互不相让的争斗在温和中平息了吧。我们一起来缔造一个温和的世界，那该多好，多美~

[00:04.49]002. Home
[00:14.10]What makes a home? Love and sympathy and confidence.
[00:18.59]It is a place where kindly affections exist among all the members of the family.
[00:23.58]The parents take good care of their children, and the children are interested in the activities of their parents.
[00:29.85]Thus all of them are bound together by affection, and they find their home to be the cheeriest place in the world.
[00:36.95]A home without love is no more a home than a body without a soul is a man.
[00:42.36]Every civilized person is a social being. No one should live alone. A man may lead a successful and prosperous life,
[00:50.55]but prosperity alone can by no means insure happiness.
[00:54.77]Many great personages in the world history had deep affections for their homes.
[01:00.80]Your home may be poor and humble, but your duty lies there.
[01:05.12]You should try to make it cheerful and comfortable.
[01:08.15]The greater the difficulties, the richer will be your reward.
[01:12.17]A home is more than a family dwelling.
[01:14.90]It is a school in which people are trained for citizenship.
[01:18.81]A man will not render good services to his country if he can do nothing good for his home;
[01:24.25]for in proportion as he loves his home, will he love his country.
[01:28.51]The home is the birthplace of true patriotism.
[01:31.78]It is the secret of social welfare and national greatness. It is the basis and origin of civilization.
精美英语散文 篇6
Dare to Believe Everybody Knows:
You can't be all things to all people;
You can't do all things at once; You can't do all things equally well;
You can't do all things better than everyone else;
Your humanity is showing just like everyone else's.
You have to find out who you are, and be that;
You have to decide what comes first, and do that;
You have to discover your strengths, and use them;
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of *being you.
Then:
You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness; You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions; You will have learned to live with your limitations;
You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due; And you'll be a most vital mortal.
Dare to believe: That you are a wonderful, unique person; That you are a once-in-all-history event;
That it's more than a right, it's your duty, to be who you are; That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish; And you'll be able to stay one up on what used to get you down.

我将明白只有低能者才会江郎才尽，我并非低能者。我必须不断对抗那些企图摧垮我得力量。失望与悲伤一眼就会被识破，而其他许多敌人是不易察觉的.，它们往往面带微笑，伸出友谊之手，却随时有可能将我们摧垮。对它们，我们永远不能放松警惕。
And with this new knowledge I will also understand and recognize the moods of him on whom i call， I will make allowances for his anger and irritation of today for he knows not the secret of controlling his mind.i can withstand him arrows and insults for now I know that tomorrow he will change and be a joy to approach.
有了这项新本领，我也更能体察别人的情绪变化。我宽容怒气冲冲的人，因为他尚未懂得控制自己的情绪，我可以忍受他的指责和辱骂，因为我知道明天他会改变，重新变得随和。
No longer will I judge a man on one meeting；no longer will i fail to call again tomorrow on he who meets me with hate today.this day he will not buy gold chariots for a penny，yet tomorrow he would exchange his home for a tree.My knowledge of this secret will be my key to great wealth.
我不再只凭一面之交来判断一个人，也不再因他今日的可恶而明日不给他打电话。今天不肯花一分钱买金蓬马车的人，明天他也许会用全部家当换一颗树苗。知道了这个秘密，我可以获得极大的财富。
Henceforth I will recognize and identify the mystery of moods in all mankind，and in me.From this moment I am prepared to control whatever personality awakes in me each day.I will master my moods through positive action and when I master my moods I will control my destiny.
我从此领悟到人类和我自己情绪变化的奥秘。对于自己千变万化的个性，我不在听之任之，我将积极主动的控制情绪，从而掌握自己的命运。
I will become master of myself.
我将成为自己的主人。
