Part One A World With Love 第一部分 人间有爱
1 The True Meaning of Love
By Mother Teresa
Spread love everywhere you go, first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife
or husband; to a next-door neighbor... let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.
Be the living expression of God’s kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in
your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
参考译文 爱的真谛
泰瑞莎修女
随处散播你的爱心，就从对你的家人开始，多一分关爱给你的孩子，你的另一半，然后你的邻
居……让每个接近你的人都有如沐春风的感觉。给别人一张慈祥的面容、一个关怀的眼神、一个
灿烂的微笑、一句温暖的问候，为上帝的仁慈做见证。
2 A Brother Like That
A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On
Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car,
admiring it.
“Is this your car, Mister?” he said.
Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was [1]astounded. “You mean
your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything? Boy, I wish . . .” He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like
that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “That I could be a brother like that.”
Paul looked at the boy [2]in astonishment, then impulsively he added,“Would you like to take a
ride in my car?”
“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in
front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors
that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those
two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast.
He was carrying his little [3] crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of [4]
squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.
“There she is, [5]buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for
yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in
beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride.
That Christmas Eve, Paul learned what Jesus meant when he said: [6]“It is more blessed to give . . .”

参考译文 哥哥的心愿
我的朋友保罗的哥哥送他一辆新车作为圣诞礼物。圣诞节之夜，保罗离开办公室时，一个男
孩绕着那辆闪闪发亮的新车，赞叹着。
“先生，这是你的车？”
保罗点点头：“这是我哥哥送给我的圣诞节礼物。”男孩满脸惊讶，支支吾吾地说：“你是说
这是你哥送的礼物，没花你一分钱？天哪，我真希望……”
保罗当然知道男孩希望什么。他希望能有一个那样的哥哥。但是小男孩接下来说的话却完全
出乎保罗的意料。
“我希望自己就是那样的哥哥，”男孩继续说。
保罗惊愕地看着那男孩，冲口而出：“你要不要坐我的车去兜风？”
“哦，当然好了，我太想坐了！”
车开了一小段路后，那孩子转过头来，眼睛闪闪发亮，对我说：“先生，你能不
能把车子开到我家门前？”
保罗微笑，他知道孩子想干什么。那男孩必定是要向邻居炫耀，让大家知道他坐了一辆大轿
车回家。但是这次保罗又猜错了。“你能不能把车子停在那两个台阶前？”男孩要求道。
男孩跑上台阶，过了一会儿保罗听到他回来了，但动作似乎有些缓慢。原来他把他跛脚的弟
弟背出来了，将他安置在第一个台阶上，紧紧地抱着他，指着那辆新车。 “你看，这就是我刚才在楼上对你说的那辆新车。这是他哥哥送给他的圣诞礼物哦！他一分钱也
没花。将来我也会送你一辆像这样的车，到那时候你就能自己去看那些在圣诞节时挂在窗口上的
漂亮饰品，就象我告诉过你的那样。”
保罗走下车子，把跛脚男孩抱到车子的前座。兴奋得满眼放光的哥哥也爬上车子，坐在弟弟
的身旁。就这样他们三人开始了一次难忘的假日兜风。
那个圣诞夜，保罗才真正体会耶稣所说的“施比受更有福”的道理。

1.astounded：astound，使（人）大吃一惊，但它一般多用于被动语态。“He was astounded at the news”
那消息让他大吃一惊。
2.in astonishment：和in surprise意思差不多，表示很惊讶。但吃惊的程度要深一些。 3.crippled：cripple即可作名词，也可作动词，意为跛子，或使跛足。在这里用crippled，是用分
词做形容词，跛足的。
4.squeezed up against him：squeeze是挤压的意思，在这里，很形象地说明小男孩紧紧抱着跛脚的
弟弟，怕他摔倒了。
5.buddy：老兄，老弟。这是美国俚语中常见的说法，一般只用于打招呼。
6.It is more blessed to give：施比受更有福。给予是一种幸福，因为你是富有的，这种富有通常跟
财富无关，更主要的是精神上的富有。
3 Waiting for the Breeze
Lie in bed, by an open window, and listen...
“No air conditioning? How can you sleep?” a friend asks, horrified. I’ve just revealed that my family
has decided to shut the air conditioner off and [1] trim our electric bill.
On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, it’s only 85 degrees. We’re not going to suffer, but
the three kids grumble anyway.
“It’s too hot to sleep,” my 13-year-old daughter moans. “I’m about to die from this heat,” her brother
hollers down the hall. “Just try it tonight,” I tell them. In truth I’m too tired to argue for long. My face
is sweaty, but I lie quietly listening to the cricket choirs outside that remind me of childhood.
I think about Grandma, who lived to 92 and still supervised my mom’s gardening until just a few

·第一篇：Youth 青春
Youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it
is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep
springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over
the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a
number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the
heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for
what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless

1惟独你不可取代
As a teenager，I felt I was always letting people down. I was
rebellious1 out－side，but I wanted to be liked inside.
Once I left home to hitch-hike2 to California with my friend
Penelope. The trip wasn’t easy，and there were many times I didn’t feel
safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still be alive. When
I returned home，I was different，not so outwardly sure of myself.
I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope，who
was staying with us，was wearing my clothes. And my family seemed to like
her better than me. I wondered if I would be missed if I weren’t there.
I told my mom，and she explained that though Penelope was a lovely girl，no one could replace me. I pointed out，“Ｓhe is more patient and is neater
than I have ever been.” My mom said these were wonderful qualities，but I was the only person who could fill my role. She made me realize that

The People Who Love You When No One Else Will
I believe that families are not only blood relatives, but
sometimes just people that show up and love you when no one
else will.
我深信家人不仅仅是血亲。有的时候，有人会在无人愿意伸出援手的时候出现在你的身边，让你感受到爱，那也是家人。
In May, 1977, I lived in a Howard Johnson's motel off of
Interstate 10 in Houston. My dad and I shared a room with two
double beds and a bathroom way too small for a modest 15-year-old girl and her father. Dad's second marriage was in trouble and
my stepmother had kicked us both out of the house the previous
week. Dad had no idea what to do with me. And that's when my
other family showed up.
在1977年的5月，我住在休斯顿十号州际公路旁的豪生汽车旅馆里。我跟我爸爸共用一个有两张双人床和一个洗手间的房间，这房间对于一个正常的15岁女孩子和她爸爸来说实在是太小了。那时，我爸爸的第二次婚姻触礁了。之前一周，我后母把我们父女俩赶了出来。爸爸不知道该拿我如何是好。正在这个时候，我的另一个家庭出现了。

Present Tense Messages
You may find yourself daunted by the many things you need
to do in order to reach your goals. It just seems overwhelming to
become the success that you secretly desire for. Your mind gets
caught up in an endless stream of worry.
What may be helpful is to concentrate on steps you can take
in the present. If you find yourself becoming stuck, stop and say,
“What can I do right now?” Change your internal talk from a
future anxiety ridden one to one that is about the more
manageable present. You cannot control what will happen in the
future but you can take the necessary steps now that will build a
better tomorrow. Taking the necessary steps require you to focus
your thoughts and inner talk on Now.

1. Beauty is Meaningless
A young man sees a sunset and, unable to understand or to express the emotion
that it rouses in him, concludes that it must be the gateway to a world that lies
beyond. It is difficult for any of us in moments of intense aesthetic experience to
resist the suggestion that we are catching a glimpse of a light that shines down
to us from a different realm of existence, different and, because the experience
is intensely moving, in some way higher. And, though the gleams blind and
dazzle, yet they do convey a hint of beauty and serenity greater than we have
known or imagined. Greater too than we can describe, for language, which was
invented to convey the meanings of this world, cannot readily be fitted to the
uses of another.
年轻人看到日落，由于无法理解或表达心中激起的那种强烈感情，便断定日落处一定是通往遥远世界的大门。我们任何人在强烈感受到美的时刻都不禁联想到：我们似乎瞥见从一个不同世界射向我们的一线光芒，不仅不同，而且因为这种美具有强烈的感染力，所以在某种程度上更高级。还有，尽管这光芒使人眼花缭乱，但它确实传送了一种我们未曾经历的和无法想像的美和静谧的启示。这种美和静谧是我们所不能描述的，因为人们创造语言的目的是表达我们的世界的各种意义，无法轻易地运用于另一个世界。
