下面是由的大学四级晨读美文，希望你感兴趣!It’s a sin around here to not thoroughly enjoy every moment of every golden day. It’s embarrassing to answer, “Did you get out and enjoy the sunshine this weekend?” with “No, I stayed inside.”Co-workers frown and exchange suspicious looks; apparently I’m one of those rain-loving slugs. I tried lying, but my pale plexion gave me away. Another mark in rain’s favor is that my body doesn’t betray me when it’s cold and damp outside. Throughout the winter, people wear several layers, with perhaps several extra pounds here and there. In June I dig out my shorts to discover my thighs resemble cottage cheese. I dread buying a swimsuit, as consecutive horror and humiliation make me cringe in the dressing room. Even my tastebuds prefer the rain. When it storms outside, it’s time for steamy hot chocolate or even a soothing toddy.People devour hot, hearty meals, with lots of potatoes and savory sauces. This type of eating evaporates when the sun es out; suddenly everyone offers salads and ice water and expects it to be satisfying. It’s time to publicly acknowledge that I love the rain. How it transforms my house into a cozy cave where I can spend the afternooncooking and dreaming. It seems nobody else will admit to a love affair with the rain, nobody else will groan whenit’s hot outside and join me in a rain dance.When the sun es out I do greet it with a smile,slipping sunglasses to my purse and pulling a tank top outof my closet. Yet my fortable sweaters and warm slippers beckon, making me wish for another wet, chilly afternoon. When the rain returns, I will grin even more. Am I the only one?The Elements of Suess I don't believe that there is any one recipe for suess. Instead, I believe suess is theresult of a bination of a lot of different factors and not all of them are needed for suess. The more factors you have on your side, the more likely you are to sueed, andpositive attitude is just one of those factors. Here are seven additional factors that are also important. Knowledge.A strong body of knowledge about the area in which you wish to sueed is often one of the key building blocks of suess. You can build this by pushing yourself, read and try out the foundational materials and push yourself into challenging areas to build your knowledge.Get a life, a real life, not a manic pursuit of the promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is notleisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. Get a life in which you are generous.Realize that life is the best thing ever, and that you have no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives, our days,our minutes. It is so easy to take for granted the color of our kids’ eyes, the way the melody in a symphony rises and falls and disappears and rises again…It is so easy to exist instead of living.I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my option, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, sees to be the hardest lesson of all.I learned to love the journey, not the destination.I learned that it is not a dress rehearsal, and that today is the only guarantee you get.I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to get some of it back because I believe in it, pletely and utterly. And I tried to do that, in part by telling others what I had learned, by telling them this: consider thelilies of the field, look at the fuzz on a baby’s ear, read in the backyard with the sun on your face, learn to be happy, and think of life as a terminal illness, because ifyou do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.。

He had been left alone for scarcely two mnutes, and when we came back we found hm n hs armchar, peacefully gone to sleep-but forever."An mmeasurable loss has been sustaned both by the mltant proletarat of Europe and Amerca, and by hstorcal scence, n the death of ths man. The gap that has been left by the departure of ths mghty sprt wll soon enough make tself felt."Just as Darwn dscovered the law of development of organc nature, so Marx dscovered the law of development of human hstory: the smple fact, htherto concealed by an overgrowth of deology, that manknd must frst of all eat, drnk, have shelter and clothng, before t can pursue poltcs, scence, art, relgon, etc.; that therefore the producton of the mmedate materal means of subsstence and consequently the degree of economc development attaned by a gven people or durng a gven epoch form the foundaton upon whch the state nsttutons, the legal conceptons, art, and even the deas on relgon, of the people concerned have been evolved, and n the lght ofwhch they must, therefore, be explaned, nstead of vce versa, as had htherto been the case."But that s not all. Marx also dscovered the specal law of moton governng the present-day captalst mode of producton and the bourgeos socety that ths mode of producton has created. The dscovery of surplus value suddenly threw lght on the problem, n tryng to solve whch all prevous nvestgatons, of both bourgeos economsts and socalst crtcs, had been gropng n the dark."Two such dscoveres would be enough for one lfetme. Happy the man to whom t s granted to make even one such dscovery. But n every sngle feld whch Marx nvestgated -- and he nvestgated very many felds, none of them superfcally -- n every feld, even n that of mathematcs, he made ndependent dscoveres.4级晨读英语美文7At age 89, Mary Fasano graduated wth a bachelor s degree from the Extenson School last week and entered the hstory books as the oldest person to earn an undergraduate degree at Harvard.

After my Harvard Extenson School classes, usually arrved at the bus staton near my home by 11 p.m., but on that nght was nowhere to be found.

So wll contnue to take classes and tell my story.Lately t seems that everyone s askng me, "Mary, what advce do you have for other students?" So whle have you all here, m gong to ease my burden of answerng you each ndvdually:f the sayng s true that wsdom comes wth age, you may safely assume that am one of the wsest people n ths hall and possbly at ths unversty today.

But wanted more. wanted to feel confdent when spoke and wanted people to respect my opnons.Does t surprse you to dscover how much you have n common wth an 89-year-old woman? know that many of you graduates today, whether you were born n 1907 or 1967, have faced smlar barrers to completng your studes and have sometmes felt nferor around those you work or socalze wth just because you ddn t have a degree.But am here today -- lke you are -- to prove that t can be done; that the power ganed by understandng and apprecatng the world around us can be obtaned by anyone regardless of socal status, personal challenges, or age. That belef s what has motvated me for the last 75 years to get ths degree. t s also the msson of the Harvard Extenson School. Wthout the support receved from ths school, mght not have graduated untl was 100 -- a phrase that many of you have probably used n jest.There are many students here who do not have the opportunty that do to speak ther mnds and have everybody lsten, whether they want to or not. But be assured, fellow graduates, that we are more smlar than you mght thnk. f you have treated educaton as your man goal, and not as a means to an end, then you, too, have probably been clamed as a mssng person once n your academc career, whether you were lost n the stars or the stacks of Wdener Lbrary.And you, too, know that the journey was worth t, and that the power of knowledge makes me the most formdable 89-year-old woman at the bus stop.4级晨读英语美文8f somebody tells you, " ll love you for ever," wll you beleve t?dont thnk theres any reason not to. we are ready to beleve such commtment at the moment, whatever change may happen afterwards.

甜心先生英文作文
甜心先生英文作文英文：Sweetheart, Mr. is a term used to describe a man who is charming, kind, and caring. He is the type of person who always puts others before himself and is always there to lend a helping hand. This term is often used to describe a man who is not only attractive on the outside but also has a beautiful heart.I remember one time when I was feeling really down and Mr. Sweetheart came over with a box of my favorite chocolates and a bouquet of flowers. He said, "I heard you were feeling blue, so I thought I'd bring you a little something to cheer you up." It was such a sweet gesture and it really lifted my spirits.Another time, I was having car trouble and Mr. Sweetheart offered to come and pick me up and take me to work. He said, "No need to worry, I'll take care of it foryou." It was so nice of him to offer his help without me even having to ask.中文：甜心先生是用来形容一个男人迷人、善良和关心的词语。
晨读英语美文100篇四级Happiness
晨读英语美文100篇四级HappinessMany people think that when they become rich and successful,happiness will naturally follow.Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth.The world is full of very rich peoplewho are as miserable as if they were living in hell.We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs.Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems.Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness.Lottery winnings do not bring happiness.Gamble winnings do not bring happiness.To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work,There is no use sayingin your contribution towards others’ happinessand in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort.If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means,you will know that it is ill earned money.If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others,you will not be happy with it.You will think you are a base person.Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem.Happiness is not an end; it is a process.It is a continuous process of honest, productive workwhich makes a real contribution to othersand makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person.As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.”There is no use saying“Some day when I achieve these goals,when I get a car, build a house and own my own business,then I will be really ha ppy.”Life just does not work that way.If you wait for certain things to happenand depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy,you will always feel unfulfilled.There will always be something missing.许多人认为当他们富有，取得成功时，幸福自然就会随之而来。
四级晨读主题的美文
四级晨读主题的美文DatingValentine's Day is a special time for love. Millions of people will receive flowers, chocolate or some other gift. Others might get just a phone call or an electronic message from someonethey care about.Still others would be happy just to have someone special in their life on Valentine's Day.Tradition tells us that Saint Valentine was a third-century Roman who performed marriages and died for his Christian beliefs on February fourteenth. That was a day celebrated in ancient Romein connection with love.Traditionally, young people in America lived with their parents until marriage. Some still do. But, in general, young people have grown more independent. They wait longer to get married.Even then, they still have to find the right person.There are many ways for people to meet. Some meet at work. Others meet by chance. Still others look for help from services that bring people together.Friends and family members might offer to help. They might plan a blind date. This is a meeting between two people who have never seen each other before. And, unless things go well, may neverseen each other again.In movies, two people often fall in love after what Hollywood calls a "cute meet." They might be lawyers on opposite sides in a court case. Or one person gets a letter meant for the other. Ortheir dogs get into a fight on the street. Who knows how many people really do meet this way.In real life, finding a person and establishing a relationship is usually hard work.A lot of people try to improve their chances by looking in places where people with similar interests go. This might be a place of religion. Or abookstore. Many bookstores in America offerspecial programs and social activities for single people.Singles may join health clubs or sports teams where men and women play together. If nothing else, at least they get some exercise.But sometimes none of these efforts succeed. So people might try to meet someone over the Internet. Here too there are no guarantees.Internet dating services had been growing sharply through the end of two thousand three. But the industry growth rate has slowed.感谢您的阅读，祝您生活愉快。

课文sweethearts段义
课文sweethearts段义我微笑着看着我那两个可爱的女儿，她们似乎比她们的父母还是大学情侣那会儿更为成熟。
琳达，21岁，在大学一年级交过一个男友，她曾以为会跟那个男孩结婚，但他们已不再来往了。
梅丽莎，19 岁，还没有一个固定的男友。
我的女儿不知何时才能遇到她们的那个“唯一"，她们伟大的爱。
她们认为她们的父亲和我有着一段经典的、童话般的浪漫史，从一开始就直奔婚姻的殿堂。
也许，她们是正确的，但在那时似乎并不是那么回事。
在某种程度上，爱神恰恰在你最没准备时来临。
谁曾想到，布奇和我最终会结婚呢?他之所以成为我男友，只是因为当时我那肤浅的打算:我要找一个可爱的男友! 1我们通过我的大学室友介绍在大学食堂相识。
在那个命中注定的夜晚，我只是好奇，但对他而言，我认为是一见钟情。
他凝视着我的脸，说:“你有一双美丽的眼睛。
”他整个晚上一直盯着我。
我真的对他没那么感兴趣，其原因有二。
首先，他看起来就像是一个野小子，甚至还有些危险。
其次，虽然他很可爱，却似乎有点怪异。
他骑着自行车经过我的宿舍，装作与我“偶遇”，看到我时还假装惊讶。
我喜欢被重视的感觉，但对他的野性和充满活力的个性却小心谨慎。
他很会说话，这会迷倒任何女孩。
当我开始爱上他时，恐惧向我袭来。
他那令人激动的“坏小子形象”简直太诱人了。
究竟是什么吸引了我？我一直口碑极好。
为了获得优异的成绩，我的注意力只专注在自己的学习上。
但又怎么样呢？大学应该是学习的好时间，可也应该有一些乐趣。
我已几乎达成了伟大的教育目标，离毕业只有一学期之遥了。
但我却还没有享受过任何乐趣，我的生活乏味，没有一点新鲜感!我需要一个男朋友，当然不是任何男朋友。
他必须很可爱。
于是我那个学期的目标就成为：雄心勃勃，抓住一个我能找到的最可爱的男友。
我担心他会怎么看我。
不错，我们生活在一个性观念正在发生戏剧性转变的时代，但我是一个传统的女孩，对在校园里似乎常见的新方式还没有心理准备。
布奇看上去很出色!我对他的个性毫无免疫力,但我对此很害怕。
