星火书业晨读英语美文Passage 1. knowledge and VirtueKnowledge is one thing, virtue is another; good sense is not conscience, refinement is not humility, nor is largeness and justness of view faith .Philosophy, however enlightened, however profound, gives no command over the passions, no influential motives, no vivifying principles. Liberal Education makes not the Christian, not the Catholic, but the gentleman ,It is well to be a gentleman, it is well to have a cultivated intellect, a delicate taste, a candid, equitable, dispassionate mind, a noble and courteous bearing in the conduct of life—these are the connatural qualities of a large knowledge; they are the objects of a University. I am advocating, I shall illustrate and insist upon them; but still, I repeat, they are no guarantee for sanctity or even for conscientiousness, and they may attach to the man of the world, to the profligate, to the heartless, pleasant, alas, and attractive as he shows when decked out in them. Taken by themselves, they do but seem to be what they are not; they look like virtue at a distance, but they are detected by close observers, and in the long run; and hence it is that they are popularly accused of pretense and hypocrisy, not, I repeat, from their own fault, but because their professors and their admirers persist in taking them for what they are not, and are officious in arrogating for them a praise to which they have no claim. Quarry the granite rock with razors, or moor the vessel with a thread of silk, then may you hope with such keen and delicate instruments as human knowledge and human reason to contend against those giants, the passion and the pride of man.。

星火四级晨读英语美文100篇【励志感悟】第12篇Building Your Own HouseAn elderly carpenter was ready to retire after years of work. He told his employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business to live a more leisruely life with his wife and enjoy his extended family. He would miss the paycheck each week,but he wanted to retire .With the money the carpenter had put aside during the years he worked for the employer-contractor,they could get by.The contractor was very sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could possibly build just one more house as a personal favor for him.The carpenter said yeas,but over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work at all.He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials.You see,it was an unifortunate way to end a dedicated career.When the carpenter finished his work,his employer came to inspect the house .Then he handed the front-door key to the carpenter and said ,"This is your house ...my gift to you ."The carpenter was shocked!What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house,he would have done it all so differently.So it is with us.We build our lives,a day at a time,often putting less than our best into the building .Then ,with a shock,we realize we have to live in the house we have built.If we could do it all over again,we would do it much differently.You are the carpenter ,and everyday you hammer a nail,place a board,or erect a wall.Someone once said ,"life is a do-it yourself project."Your attitude and the choices you make today helps to build the "house "you will live in tomorrow.Therefor ,build wisely!翻译：建造你自己的房子。

星火英语四级美文听力100篇Comments on the American DreamThe phrase"American dream" generally refers to the hopes has for his own well-being in America.It is not necessarily a selfish notion, because achieving the dream is assumed to make America strong.Because the dream is held by individuals, there can be as many different dreams as there are people to have them.A new immigrant may dream of mastering the language, holding a steady job, and having his own apartment.A successful industrialist may dream of acquiring more companies.In the past, the most typical components of the American dream for ordinary are as follows. The first component is a piece of land where one can sustain himself and raise a family.Having the land has to go beyond mere subsistence.It must also provide for a profit and expansion.Most importantly, it must help to give your children better opportunties than you had.A final component is freedom of movementwithin your geographic area.In our agriculrural age, freedom of movement came with horse and wagon.We remain emotionally tied to our agricultural past.We replace the working farm of the American dream with a suburban house and an urban job.The horse that took our ancestors to town once a month for supplies isreplaced by a couple of cars that take us several places everyday.The essence of the American dream seems to me to be geographic space and physical freedom.One's efforts allow one to succeed independently while providing an improved future for one's children and making a contribution to the world that one can be proud of.The dream has its constants,but is ever-changing with the people and with the times.For young students today, the dream might include a very high-paying technology job from which one could retire at an early ageand devote oneself to helping others.For middle-aged people today, the dream may include voluntary simplicity--a planned reduction in consump-tion with a potentially more satisfying lifestyle. 1 00:00:00,009 --> 00:00:06,110Struggling in America200:00:06,119 --> 00:00:15,300The United States of America is often seen as a nation300:00:15,309 --> 00:00:19,020in which the pursuit of happiness is not a dream but a reality.400:00:19,029 --> 00:00:23,940The sad truth is that although portrayed as an unusually easy life,500:00:23,949 --> 00:00:27,770life in America is as much of a struggle as in any other nation.600:00:27,779 --> 00:00:33,240For example, higher level education for Americans does not come easy.700:00:33,249 --> 00:00:37,060Although there are scholarships, grants and loans available,800:00:37,069 --> 00:00:42,640if the student fails to meet the criteria he is left with onlypersonal resources to draw from.900:00:42,649 --> 00:00:47,670This takes him into a life with not only a school schedule to follow butperhaps,1000:00:47,679 --> 00:00:50,190also, a work schedule and family life 1100:00:50,199 --> 00:00:55,330These are often the difficulties that are not portrayed through theTV andmovies.1200:00:55,339 --> 00:00:58,320These are also the difficulties which many believe1300:00:58,329 --> 00:01:01,780they will not encounter by attending an American college.1400:01:01,789 --> 00:01:05,060In the second place, there is financial security.1500:01:05,069 --> 00:01:10,970Many times what is portrayed of life in America is a life where “money isno object”.1600:01:10,979 --> 00:01:13,050The fallacy in this is that,1700:01:13,059 --> 00:01:13,050Each person has their own personal struggle1800:01:13,059 --> 00:01:13,260and money is an object for the majority of the people.1900:01:13,269 --> 00:01:16,110in spite of the comparatively higher wages available,2000:01:16,119 --> 00:01:18,300the cost of living is also higher.2100:01:18,309 --> 00:01:21,690Even though it may seem like one is making more money,2200:01:21,699 --> 00:01:30,330just as much is spent in surviving.2300:01:30,339 --> 00:01:35,250Thirdly is the belief that in the American way of life everyone has a goodjob.2400:01:35,259 --> 00:01:38,420With the increasing advancements in technology,2500:01:38,429 --> 00:01:43,240a well-paying job for those currently in the work force is getting harder tofind.2600:01:43,249 --> 00:01:46,630Those who have not been exposed to computers2700:01:46,639 --> 00:01:50,310and other new methods of communication are finding this to be true.2800:01:50,319 --> 00:01:52,110As it stands now,2900:01:52,119 --> 00:01:56,680the job market is requiring at least a two-year degree from college,3000:01:56,689 --> 00:01:58,770in order to make enough to live comfortably.3100:01:58,779 --> 00:02:02,480Even then well-paid jobs are not easy to find,3200:02:02,489 --> 00:02:04,480as it is sometimes believed because of the portrayal of life in America.。

She will be waiting for you and will take care of you.""But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy.""Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day.

下面是店铺带来的晨读英语美文100篇四级，欢迎阅读!晨读英语美文100篇四级精选It is well that young men should begin at the beginning and occupy the most subordinate positions. Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon them at the very threshold of their career. They were introduced to the broom, and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office. I notice we have janitors and janitresses now in offices, and our young men unfortunately miss that salutary branch of business education. But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning, the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom. It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one of those sweepers myself.Assuming that you have all obtained employment and are fairly started, my advice to you is “aim high”. I would not give a fig for the young man who does not already see himself the partner or the head of an important firm. Do not rest content for a moment in your thoughts as head clerk, or foreman, or general manager in any concern, no matter how extensive. Say to yourself, “My place is at the top.” Be king in your dreams.And here is the prime condition of success, the great secret: concentrate your energy, thought, and capital exclusively upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun in one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it.The concerns which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also. They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here there, and everywhere. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” is all wrong. I tell you to “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket.” Look round you and take notice, men who do that not often fail. It is easy to watch and carry the one basket. It is trying to carry too many baskets that breaks most eggs in this country. He who carries three baskets must put one on his head, which is apt to tumble and trip him up. One fault of the American businessman is lack of concentration.To summarize what I have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; do not touch liquor, or if at all only at meals; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm’s interest yours; break orders always to save owners; concentrate; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; expenditure always within revenue; lastly, be not impatient, for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves.成功之道年轻人创业之初，应该从最底层干起，这是件好事。

The Road to Happiness
If you look around at the men and women whom you can cll happy,you will see that they all have certain things in common. The most important of these things is an activity which at most gradually builds up something that you are glad to see coming into existence. Women who take an instinctive pleasure in their children can get this kind of satisfaction out of bringing up a family. Artists and authors and men of science get happiness in this way if their own work seems good to them. But there are many humbler forms of the same kind of pleasure. Many men who spend their working life in the city devote their weekens to voluntary and unremunerated toil in their gardens, and when the spring comes ,they experience all the joys of having created beauty..
The whole subject of happiness has , in my opinion, been treated too solemnly. It had been thought that man cannot be happy without a theory of life or a religion.Perhaps those who have seen rendered unhappy by a bad theory may need a better theory to help them to recovery, just as you may need a tonic when you have been ill.But when things are normal a man should be healthy without a tonic and happy without a theory. It is the simple things that really matter. If a man delights in his wife and children,has success in work,and finds pleasure in the alternation of day and night,spring and autumn,he will be happy whatever his philosophy may be. If, on the other hand ,he finds his wife fateful, his children’s noise unendurabl e, and the office a nightmare; if in the daytime he longs for night, and at night sighs for the light of day, then what he needs is not a new philosophy but a new regimen------------a different diet, or more exercise, or what not Man is an animal, and his happiness depends on his physiology more than he likes to think. This is a humble conclusion, but I cannot make myself disbelieve it. Unhappy businessmen, I am convinced,would increase their happiness more by walking six miles every day than by any conceivable change of philosophy.

通往幸福的路
如果观察一下周围那些你可称之为幸福的男男女女,你就会发现他们都具有某些共同之处.其中最为重要的就是投身于一种活动,最终这种活动满满的构建起某些你乐见其成的事物。
生性喜爱孩子的妇女能够从抚养子女中获得这种满足感。
艺术家、作家和科学家如果对自己的工作感到满意，也能以同样的方式得到快乐。
不过，还有很多是较低层次的快乐。
许多在城里工作的人到了周末自愿地在自家的庭院里无偿地劳动，春天来时，他们就可尽情享受自己创造的美景所带来的快乐.
在我看来,关于幸福的整个论题向来都被弄得过于严肃了.人们过去一直认为,没有生活理论或者宗教信仰，人就不可能幸福。
也许，那些因不好的生活理论而郁郁寡欢的人们需要一种更好的理念帮助他们重新快活起来，正如你生病之后需要服用补药一样。
但是，正常情况下，一个人无需补药也会身体健康，没有理论也能生活幸福。
真正重要的倒是一些简单的事情。
如果一个人家庭和睦，事业有成，并且从昼夜交替和春秋轮回中也得获得快乐，那么不管他的人生哲学如何，他都会感到幸福。
相反，如果他厌恶自己的妻子，觉得孩子们的吵闹难以忍受，工作如同噩梦，如果他白天盼望夜晚，而到了晚上又期待着天明，那么，他所需要的就不是新的人生哲学，而是一种新养生之道。
改变饮食习惯，多多锻炼，诸如此类。
人是一种动物，他的幸福更多地取决于其生理状况而非思想状况。
这是一种庸俗的结论，然而我无法使自己质疑它。
我确信，不幸福的商人与其想方设法改变人生哲学来使自己幸福，还不如每天步行六英里更有效果。
