高一英语美文摘抄篇1A fugue, could not help but lie in the rape flowers, all of life's troubles are not exist, ran up the sky, I went to your concerns but not to distant places, passionately looked at the sky in a daze, the sky is so blue, the cloud is so elegant, ear rustling sound suddenly are nature's most beautiful music. Light, beautiful flowers that people unconsciously forget yourself, as if heaven and earth together, with the sun and moon, quietly around, no noise, no sadness, we have become one of the most transparent nature. The sky was drunk, drunk, I was drunk, you are drunk, drunk and confused world, drunk people all right and wrong, enenyuanyuan, drunk a glass.Flower is falling all over the sky, drifting profusely and disorderly petals floating in the sky and fell on the ground, as if the winter sky fluttering snowflakes, glittering and translucent; as if the Queen Mother shed broken wine, sweet scent; as if the world dancing fairy, naive naughty. White blossoms, opened in April in the world, in the most beautiful season, white, pink, with a flower drifting profusely and disorderly, people can not bear to step on, walk away from the open hands, a fragrance, swept away a fragrance. Close your eyes, open arms raised his head, raised the smile toward the sun, is the 45 degree angle of the smile, the petals fall in the hair, fell on the brow, fell on the face, fell on the already deep heart.高一英语美文摘抄篇2Let us have a sea in the heart, the flow out is two lines of tears, but I do not feel lonely, I just simply like writing desolation. Once our perfunctory emotions, in other people's memory curve gradually gradually fading away. Once the throbbing, just the years left me a person's illusion, I do not believe my eyes. I didn't cry, I just learned to miss it.Once we have had a good vision like Haizi's "facing the sea and spring blossoms". Once, we used to remember the past events of that year. Once we didn't know that busy night night revelry, we had pretended to deceive ourselves. In our time in the past, a sad and happy memories like a pearl like series together, constitute our life as pretty as a flower.Looking back on the inner sense of peace, Youth passes as a fleeting wave., maybe our hearts grow old gradually away from the young. At one time, we would be upset about something and would jump for something. We would love someone to die. We would hate someone who could hate himself. We could love, we could hate, but we could not be careless. However, time is generally in the birch leaf wind rustling wind make heart calm, we're like a stream flowing slowly, so anyone can have scruples about who, who can forget the original vicissitudes of life, who can live simply.高一英语美文摘抄篇3When you're going through the workday, try to keep similar tasks together. When you switch from one thing to another, your brain takes a few minutes to catch up and settle in: constantly jumping between answering emails and writing a report and tidying up your desk just means you'll lose track of where you'd got to. You might feel like you're working super-efficiently(because your mind is buzzing all over the place), but you'll actually be wasting a lot of time.工作时可以将相似的任务并在一起处理。

高中英语美文摘抄高中课外英语美文篇一The difference between love and like 爱与被爱的区别In front of the person you love, your heart beats faster, but in front of the person you like, you get happy.In front of the person you love, winter seems like spring, but in front of the person you like, winter is just beautiful winter.If you look into the eyes of the one you love, you blush, but if you look into the eyes of the person you like, you smile.If front of the person you love, you can’t say everything on your mind, but in front of the person you like, you can.In front of the person you love, you tend to get shy, but infront of the person you like, you can show your own self.You can’t look straight into the eyes of the one you love, but you can always smile into the eyes of the one you like.When the one you love is crying, you cry with him, but when the one you like is crying, you end up comforting.The feeling of love starts from the eye, and the feeling of like starts from the ears.So if you stop liking a person you used to like, all you need to do is cover your ears. But if you try to close your eyes, love turns into a teardrop and remains in your heart forever after.高中课外英语美文篇二color of friendship 友谊的颜色Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel.All claimed that they were the best.The most important.The most useful.The favorite.Green said：“Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and ofhope. I was chosen for grass，trees and leaves. Without me，all animals would die. Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in them a jority.〞Blue interrupted：“You only thin k about the earth，but consider the sky and the sea.It is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea. The sky gives space and peace and serenity. Withoutmy peace，you would all be nothing.〞Yellow chuckled：“Yo u are all so serious. I bring laughter，gaiety，and warmth intothe world. The sun is yellow，the moon is yellow，the stars are yellow.Every time you look at a sunflower，the whole world starts to smile.Without me there would be no fun.〞Orange started ne某t to blow her trumpet：“I am the color of health and strength. I may be scarce，but I am precious for I serve the needs of human life. I carry the most important vitamins. Think of carrots，pumpkins，oranges，mangoes，and papayas. I don‘t hang around all th e time，but when I fill the sky at sunrise or sunset，my beauty is so striking that no one gives another thought to any of you.〞Red could stand it no longer he shouted out：“I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood - life‘s blood!I am the color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. Ibring fire into the blood. Without me，the earth would be as empty asthe moon. I am the color of passion and of love，the redrose，the poinsettia and the poppy.〞Purple rose up to his full height：He was very tall and spoke with great pomp：“I am the color ofroyalty and power. Kings，chiefs，and bishops have always chosen me for Iam the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not questionme!They listen and obey.〞Finally Indigo spoke，much more quietly than all the others，but with just as much determination：“Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me，but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought an dreflection，twilight and deep water. You need me for balance and contrast，for prayer and inner peace.〞And so the colors went on boasting，each convinced of his or herown superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder rolled andboomed. Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in fear，drawing close to one another for comfort.In the midst of the clamor，rain began to speak：“You foolish colors，fighting amongst yourselves，each trying to dominate the rest. Don‘t you know that you were each made for a special purpose，unique and different?Join hands with one another and come tome.〞Doing as they were told，the colors united and joined hands. The rain continued：“From now on，when it rains，each of you will stretch across the skyin a great bow of color as a reminder that you can all live in peace.The Rainbow is a sign of hope for tomorrow.〞And so，whenever a good rain washes the world，and a Rainbow appears in the sky，let usremember toappreciate one another.高中课外英语美文篇三The flame of love 爱的火焰[英语美文欣赏]Suppose you have everything; a good job, good health, good reputation, good relationships and lot of money to spend. But still there is something missing from your life. Guess what? The LOVE. Itis not something which you should ignore. Life without love is just like body without soul.Love gives meaning to life as without love life is meaningless. Lucky is the person who gets love and keeps the flames of loveburning for ever. It is not a matter of days or months. Love is for life and life is for love.Short term love encounters are not helpful at all. Be sincerewith your body and soul. Indulge in serious life long loving relationship and live a healthy, happy and joyful life.It is easy to fell in love but difficult to keep the flames of love burning. Before indulging in serious long term loverelationships be sure that the person you love is also sincere with you. A selfish person can make your life miserable. If this is the case with you then try to get rid of that person as soon as possible. Most people do not give importance to their love life as theygive importance to their professional life.

A sensible balance between the two is necessary in order to enjoy life in its entirety. Do not deprive yourself of the love you need.People part their ways after living together for years and years. Though this looks strange but is the obvious result of ignoring thegenuine complaints and grievances of the other.

However, when deep differences develop between the two then professional consultation is necessary. Do everything to bring back love to your life, if it is lost.In order to make the journey of life more e某citing and enjoyable, you need a loving and caring person with whom you can share your values, dreams, fantasies, joys and jokes.

下面是店铺带来的关于必背经典英语美文，欢迎阅读!关于必背经典英语美文篇一48 Tips to a Happy MarriageI came across a list titled: “48 Tips to a Happy Marriage”. I thought that they are worth mentioning and maybe exploring. I wonder how much of these are followed by couples in our society and do they find them relevant and applicable?Since I am still single; I will comment about each one from my own perspective and state what I think about it; by that; I am not dictating or promoting anything, I am just thinking in the form of writing.The list goes as follows; if you become bored while going through them, stop and come back later because I found them very interesting and I am hoping you will do too:1. Start each day with a kiss ~ I think this one is not that hard; on the contrary; it can be healthy and nice.2. Wear your wedding ring at all times ~ most couples do wear the ring, however; their reasons might vary, so as long as they think of it as a sign of their commitment to their spouses, then they are on the safe side.3. Date once a week ~ I believe this one is very healthy; maybe not as often as once a week, let’s say every other week or that a date can be inside your home and that you don’t have to go somewhere fancy to have it, you get the idea, right?4. Accept differences ~ No one is perfect. However; healthy arguments are good for the relationship, hence; the mostimportant thing would be learning how to compromise with one another.5. Be polite ~ Please, thank you, you are welcome… these are not only meant for strangers; your own spouse and family should come first and you must always use these phrases inside your home.6. Be gentle ~ a person is supposed to be the closest to his/her spouse, being gentle is crucial to keep them close enough or they will find that comfort elsewhere.7. Give gifts ~ nice small gifts are appreciated every once ina while8. Smile often ~ I would say: Smile Always because it is contagious and you are more likely to be smiled at when you show your teeth more often!!9. Touch ~ intimacy between married people is very important and touching is a means of communication that reflects closeness, connection and love; it is your way of keeping the spark alive.10. Talk about dreams ~ dreams of the future that is; if you don’t share your dreams with your spouse; then who?11. Select a song that can be “our song” ~ this sounds likea cliché, but it can be nice, don’t you think?12. Give back rubs ~ this means: be comforting both mentally and physically and if you don’t know how to give back rubs and massages; it is time to learn!13. Laugh together ~ laughter is like smiling and as they say: it is medicine. When you share good laughs together; the fun grows in the relationship and you grow closer and stronger every day.14. Send a card for no reason ~ another cliché? Maybe, buteveryone likes to receive a nice “I love you” or “I miss you” notes every once in a while; it doe s boost one’s ego, doesn’t it?15. Do what the other person wants before he or she asks ~ of course; you need to know your spouse so well to be able to do this one. I guess this comes with time as you grow to know each other but seek to get that knowledge; don’t assume that it will come to you!16. Listen ~ this could be the most important one ever, but note that you should listen with empathy and not just hear what they are saying; you should get involved.17. Encourage ~ positive support and being there for one another is also very important; seek their support and give them yours and be generous!18. Do it his or her way ~ sometimes; you need to do things their way just to show how much you love them and respect their feelings.19. Know his or her needs ~ what good is a spouse if he/she does not know the needs of their significant others? This should be your primary concern!20. Compliment twice a day ~ everyone likes to hear something nice as a compliment; so give them that when it is due. It should not b e literally twice but don’t be extreme by not giving at all or giving too much; just say something nice when you can.21. Fix the other person’s breakfast ~ it doesn’t have to be breakfast in bed though!22. Call during the day ~ but don’t over do it and b e obsessed with calling him/her. Give them their space but also show them that you think of them by a 2-minutes phone callsaying “how are you doing?”23. Slow down ~ and don’t jump to conclusions; always give the benefit of the doubt and wait to hear them out.24. Cuddle ~ yes; intimacy is very important and reflects love and deep feelings.25. Ask for each others’ opinion ~ absolutely; whose opinion would you seek if not your spouse’s? Your decisions will reflect both your lives and not only your own, so their opinion is important for you to make the right move.26. Show respect ~ all the time; whether you are alone or among others. Showing respect is more important than showing love.27. Welcome the other person home ~ show enthusiasm when they come home and greet them; this means that you are happy because they are home now and that you were waiting for them!28. Look your best ~ I understand that this is not easy to implement since we face different situations all day long, however; it does count that you make the effort to look your best every once in a while just for their sake and not only because you are going out or expecting guests, get the point?29. Wink at each other ~ another cliché? Probably, but it can be any other gesture like smiling their way across the room or dining table, or holding their hand for a minute, just anything that appeals to both of you.30. Celebrate birthdays in a big way ~ this does not mean a big party; just show them you care about their personal occasions.31. Apologize ~ and don’t be too stubborn to admit that you made a mistake, because apologizing can clear things between you and allows you to move on from the conflict in ahealthy manner.32. Forgive ~ from the heart and not only in words; forgive them and mean it.33. Set up a romantic getaway ~ this sounds like fun every once in a while; no harm in that!34. Ask, “What can I do to make you happier?” ~ in other words; communicate and keep it going, because one’s needs might change along the way, and what they used to like a couple of years ago might not be appealing to them now; so make sure you ask them what does make them happy and do it.35. Be positive ~ even when it is a negative era of your lives; always try to show the full half of the cup.36. Be kind ~ and nice.37. Be vulnerable ~ let those guards down and show your true colors.38. Respond quickly to the other person’s request ~ show them that you are doing this because you care for them the most.39. Talk about your love ~ again; communicate. Always tell them as well as show them how much you love them and how happy you are because of having them in your lives.40. Treat each others’ friends and relatives with courtesy ~ even if you don’t like their family and/or friends, you treat them with respect and courtesy for the sake of your spouse; they deserve that much.41. Send flowers every Valentine’s Day and anniversary ~ or just for the sake of it; flowers can say a lot on your behalf.42. Admit when wrong ~ don’t be too arrogant to say it.43. Be sensitive to each other’s sexual desires ~ more importantly; understand these desires and keep the communication going.44. Pray for each other daily ~ and do it from the heart.45. Watch sunsets together ~ just share such moments together; it does not have to be sunset; it can be anything else.46. Say “I love you” frequently ~ don’t assume that they know you love them; everyone likes to hear it, so say it!47. End the day with a hug ~ show closeness and again; intimacy.48. Seek outside help when needed ~ if you reach a point when you feel that you cannot solve the problem alone; seek the help of someone you both trust before giving up, or go for professional help as a last resort. Never feel ashamed of that; seeking help is a lot better than giving up and doing your very best to solve your issues. You owe it to yourself and to them to do that.关于必背经典英语美文篇二If the Dream is Big EnoughIf the Dream is Big EnoughI used to watch her from mykitchenwindow, she seemed so small as she 1)muscled her way throughthecrowd of boys on the playground.

of their shadows deep;How many loved your moments of glad grace,And loved your beauty with love false or true,But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how love fledAnd paced upon the mountains overheadAnd hid his face amid a crowd of stars.The furthest distance in the worldIs not between life and deathBut when I stand in front of youYet you don't know thatI love you.The furthest distance in the worldIs not when I stand in front of youYet you can't see my loveBut when undoubtedly knowing the love from both Yet cannot be together.The furthest distance in the worldIs not being apart while being in loveBut when I plainly cannot resist the yearningYet pretending you have never been in my heart.The furthest distance in the world Is not struggling against the tides But using one's indifferent heart To dig an uncrossable riverFor the one who loves you.。

高中英语必读美文50篇(名师精选优美范文，提高英语语感，值得下载打印)1During summer vacations, I would volunteer at the vet’s, so I’d seen a lot of dogs. Minnie was by far the funniest-looking dog I’d ever seen. Thin curly hair barely covered her sausage-shaped body. Her bugged-out eyes always seemed surprised. And her tail looked like a rat’s tail.She was brought to the vet to be put to sleep because her owners didn’t want her anymore. I thought Minnie had a sweet personality, though. "No one should judge her by her looks," I thought. So the vet spayed her and gave her the necessary shots. Finally, I advertised Minnie in the local paper: "Funny-looking dog, well behaved, needs loving family."When a young man called, I warned him that Minnie was strange looking. The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather’s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. They wanted Minnie no matter what. I gave Minnie a good bath and fluffed up what was left of her scraggly hair. Then we waited for them to arrive.At last, an old car drove up in front of the vet’s. Two kids raced to the door. They scooped Minnie into their arms and rushed her out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his reaction to Minnie.Inside the car, the grandfather cradled Minnie in his arms and stroked her soft hair. She licked his face. Her rattail wagged around so quickly that it looked like it might fly off her body. It was love at first lick."She’s perfect!" the old man exclaimed.I was thankful that Minnie had found the good home that she deserved.That’s when I saw that the grandfather’s eyes were a milky white color - he was blind.2Tomorrow was his girlfriend’s birthday and the young man was having a difficult time deciding on a present for her. She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them, so he couldn’t get any kind of apparel. She never ate sweets, so candy was out of the question. What then? He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift; tomorrow he was going to make an offer of marriage to her.He finally decided on perfume . All girls liked perfume. That raised another problem, however. What kind did she prefer? He couldn’t ask her, because that would ruin the surprise.At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea. That afternoon, pretending to take his girl-friend’s fox terrier, little dog. Together, the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town’s biggest department store. Good! There was a large array of perfume. He beckoned a clerk, instructing her to open a large number of bottles and wave the stoppers under the dog’s nose.Nestled in the young man’s arms, the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly pointless game went on. Then Fritz suddenly became frisky, wiggling in the yo ung man’s arms and barking excitedly, as the clerk waved one stopper under his nose.“I’ll take that one,” said the young man to the clerk. The price was high; but it was worth it, he thought.“My favorite perfume!” said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package. “How did you know?” she asked, dabbing some perfume behind each ear.“Intuition, I guess,” said the young man, deciding that it wasn’t exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances. One day, after they were married, he would admit that his intuition had really been a little dog named Fritz.3My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn’t know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at m y best friend’s house. Though I knew I wouldn’t tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I’d stay with him un til the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”“What is?” I asked.“To talk, you and I,” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we’re going to do with ourselves now that we’re in the situation we are in.”“But we can’t do anything about it, Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I wasAnd that’s how the most unbelievable frie ndship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting there in the dark, we talked about our feeling and fears of life---from how fast things change, to how they sometimesdon’t change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new frie nd, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be.Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “ I guess that means you’ll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”4I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn’t to o bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it did n’t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary part of the learning process.5Donnie was a shy, nervous perfectionist. His fear of failure kept him from classroom games that other children played with joyous excitement. He seldom answered questions -- he might be wrong. Written assignments, especially math, reduced him to nail-biting frustration. He seldom finished his work because he repeatedly checked with me to be sure he hadn't made a mistake.Then one morning we were working math problems at the chalkboard. Pleased with their progress, I left the children with Mary Anne，my student teacher, and went for art materials. When I returned, Donniewas in tears. He'd missed the third problem. Anne looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face brightened. She reached the drawer we shared for some pencils."See these pencils, Donnie?" she said, kneeling beside him and gently lifting the tear-stained face from his arms. "They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are worn? That's because we make mistakes too. Lots of them. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That's what you must learn to do, too." She kissed him and stood up. "Here," she said, "I'll leave one of these pencils on your desk so you'll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers." Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and just a glimmer of a smile -- the first I'd seen on his face that year.The pencil became Donnie's prized possession. That, together with Mary Anne's frequent encouragement and unfailing praise for even Donnie's small successes, gradually persuaded him that it's all right to make mistakes -- as long as you erase them and try again.6A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with potato chips and root beer and started his journey.When he stopped by in a park, he met an old woman. He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed that the old lady looked hungry, so he offered her some chips. She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.Her smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered her a root beer. Again, she smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.As twilight approached, the boy realized that he got to go back home. When the boy opened the door, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him,"What did you do today that made you so happy?""I had lunch with God. You know what? She's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy, returned to her home. Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face and he asked,"Mother, what did you do today that made you so happy?""I ate potato chips in the park with God. You know, he's much younger than I expected."Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Embrace all equally!7A few weeks ago, I followed a friend into an art-supply store. I found him picking out tubes of water-color paint, which surprised me because he’s not an artist.“I signed up for a water-color class, and it starts next week,” he said sheepishly. “I don’t really have time for it, but it was on my list o f 50 things to do before I die, so I went for it.” This sounds interesting, “What else is on the list﹖” I asked him.“All kinds of things,” he said. “Every few months I look at the list and decide what to focus on next. Before I had the list, I regretted a lot about what I was missing in my life. Now I just do stuff.”“Can I see your list sometime﹖” I ask ed.“I don’t know,” he said. “It reveals a lot about me. Write your own list, and you’ll see what I mean.”So that night I did just that, and he was right. The list revealed a whole lot about what was important to me. It also revealed how hopelessly behind I am at getting to the things I really want.Just writing the list helped me sort through some of my priorities. I filled up the first 20 blanks quickly, but then began to think carefully. Eventually I added items I’ve thought about for years, dreams I’ve carried with me since I was young, and things that I was longing for when I first heard about them.I have a cousin who has accomplished an amazing string of interesting things. She told me the key was preparing the ground so that life could work in myst erious ways. “If you want your ship to come in, you must build a dock,” she said.Thanks to my list, I’m working on some big docks.8Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son’s soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son’s team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son’s teammate, Mickey. With shouts of “Kick it!” echoing across the playground, Mickey tur ned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted. Mickey had scored!Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome（唐氏综合症）and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted,“I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!” For a moment I held my breath, not surehow my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five salute and started chanting, “Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!” Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal.Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied, “It w as a tie. Everybody won.”9Life whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart. Sometimes，when you don't have the time to listen... Life throws a brick at your head.A young and successful CEO was traveling down a neighborhood street， going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. As his car passed，one child appeared，and a brick smashed into the Jag's side door. He slammed on the brakes and spun the Jag back to the spot from where the brick had been thrown.He jumped out of the car，grabbed the kid and pushed him up against a parked car， shouting，"What was that all about and what the hell are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw gonna cost a lot. Why did you do it?"“Please，mister，please，I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do!” pleaded the youngst er.“It's my brother,” he said. “He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.” Sobbing，the boy asked the executive， "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.”Moved beyond words， the driver lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts，checking to see that everything was going to be okay."Thank you，sir. And God bless you，" the grateful child said to him. The man then watched the little boy push his brother to the sidewalk toward their home.It was a long walk back to his Jaguar... a long，slow walk. He never did repair the side door. He kept the dent to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention.10Many say their most painful moments are saying good-bye to those they love. After watching Cheryl, my daughter-in-law, through the six long months her mother suffered towards death, I think the most painful moments can be in the waiting to say good-bye.Cheryl made the two-hour trip over and over to be with her mother. They spent the long afternoons praying, soothing, comforting, and retelling their shared memories.As her mother‘s pai n intensified and more medication was needed to ease her into sedation, Cheryl sat for hours of silent vigil by her mother‘s bed.Each time she kissed her mother before leaving, her mother would tear up and say, "I‘m sorry you drove so far and sat f or so long and I didn‘t even wake up to talk with you."Cheryl would tell her not to worry, it didn‘t matter, still her mother felt she had let her down and apologized at each good-bye until the day Cheryl found a way to give her mother the same reassurance her mother had given to her so many times."Mom, do you remember when I made the high school basketball team?" Cheryl‘s mother nodded. "You‘d drive so far and sit for so long and I never even left the bench to play. You waited for me after every game and each time I felt bad and apologized to you for wasting your time." Cheryl gently took her mother‘s hand."Do you remember what you would say to me?""I would say I didn‘t come to see you play, I came to see you.""And you meant those words, didn‘t you.""Yes, I really did.""Well, now I say the same words to you. I didn‘t come to see you talk, I came to see you."Her mother understood and smiled as she floated back into sleep.Their afternoons together passed quietly into days, weeks, and months. Their love filled the spaces between their words. To the last day they ministered to each other in the stillness, love given and received just by seeing each other.A love so strong that, even in this deepened silence that followed their last good-bye, Cheryl can still hear her mother‘s love.11One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”“You owe me nothing,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith. He was about to give up and quit before this point.Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called in to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life.After a long struggle, the battle was won. However, when the bill was sent to her room, she was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side caught her attention.“Paid in full with a glass of milk.”Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently: “Thank You, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”12Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed instantly in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known when I talked to him last that it would be the last time. If I had only known I would have said, "Jim, I love you and I‘m so very proud of you."I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he brought to the lives of the many who loved him. I would have taken time to appreciate his beautiful smile, the sound of his laughter, his genuine love of people.When you put all the good attributes on the scale and you try to balance all the irritating traits such as the radio which was always too loud, the haircut that wasn‘t to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., the irritations don‘t amount to much.I won‘t get another chance to tell my son all I would have wanted him to he ar, but, other parents, you do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear if you knew it would be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the day he died. He called me to say, "Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. Got to go to work. Bye." He gave me something to treasure forever.If there is any purpose at all to Jim‘s death, maybe it is to make others appreciate more of life and to have people, especially families, take the time to let each other know just how much we care.You may never have another chance. Do it today!13A 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 asked.Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you nothing? 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 in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?""Oh yes, I'd love that."After a short ride, the boy turned and 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 crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car."There she is, 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 had said, "It is more blessed to give..."14A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.“Daddy, please tell me, how much do you make an hour?” pleaded the little boy.“If you must know, I make $20 an hour.”“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $10?”The father was furious, “If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish.”The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often.“I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man, “It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $10 you asked for.”The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh, thank you daddy!” He yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.“Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”15“Don't ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you're alive is a special occasion.”I'm still thinking about these words, and they've changed my life. I'm reading more and dusting less. I'm sitting on the deck and admiring the view without fussing about the weeds in the garden. I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experience to enojy, not endure. I'm trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them."Someday" and "one of these days" are losing their significance in my vocabulary. If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now. It's those little things left undone that would make me angry if I knew that my hours were limited. Angry because I put off seeing good friends whom I was going to get in touch with-someday. Angry because I hadn't written certain letters that I intended to write--one of these days. Angry and sorry that I didn't tell my husband and daughter often enough how much I truly love them.I'm trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and shine to our lives.And every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that it is special. Every day, every minute, every breath truly is ... a gift from God.16My friend Gayle has been "living" with cancer for four years and it is progressively getting worse. During a conversation with another friend, Gayle expressed that one of her childhood wishes was to have a red Radio Flyer wagon. As a child she never received one because she believed that if you told your birthday wish it wouldn't come true. I was at an ice cream stand one day and in the window was a miniature red Radio Flyer wagon that could be won in a weekly drawing. Every time you make a purchase you could fill out a ticket for a chance to win. After several weeks and many ice cream cones, I didn't win.I got up the courage to ask the person in charge if I could buy one. I went to the window and as I began to tell my story, I could feel my throat tighten and my eyes overflowed with tears. Somehow I managed to explain my reason for wanting to purchase the wagon, and after writing a check, I left carrying it. The wagon was delivered the next day, and for Gayle it was dream come true. The following day I received a letter that read:Dear Bonnie,Every once in a while there is an opportunity to pass on a kindness – no questions asked. I lost my parents to cancer six months apart from each other. I cared for both of them but could not have done it without the love and generosity of friends – friends who care.The best to you,NormaIt was from the owner of the ice cream stand. Enclosed was my uncashed check17Be Still With GodAll day long I had been very busy; picking up trash, cleaning bathrooms and scrubbing floors. My grown children were coming home for the weekend. I went grocery shopping and prepared for a barbecue supper, complete with ribs and chicken. I wanted everything to be perfect.Suddenly, it dawned on me that I was dog-tired. I simply couldn't work as long as I could when I was younger. "I've got to rest for a minute," I told my husband, Roy, as I collapsed into my favorite rocking chair. Music was playing, my dog and cat were chasing each other and the telephone rang.A scripture from Psalm 46 popped into my mind. "Be still, and know that I am God." I realized that I hadn't spent much time in prayer that day. Was I too busy to even utter a simple word of thanks to God?Suddenly, the thought of my beautiful patio came to mind. I can be quiet out there, I thought. I longed for a few minutes alone with God.Roy and I had invested a great deal of time and work in the patio that spring. The flowers and hanging baskets were breathtaking. It was definitely a heavenly place of rest and tranquility. If I can't be still with God in that environment, I can't be still with Him anywhere, I thought. While Roy was talking on the telephone, I slipped out the backdoor and sat down on my favorite patio chair. I closed my eyes and began to pray, counting my many blessings.A bird flew by me, chirping and singing. It interrupted my thoughts. It landed on the bird feeder and began eating dinner as I watched. After a few minutes it flew away, singing another song.I closed my eyes again. A gust of wind blew, which caused my wind chimes to dance. They made a joyful sound, but again I lost my concentration on God. I squirmed and wiggled in my chair. I looked up toward the blue sky and saw the clouds moving slowly toward the horizon. The wind died down. My wind chimes finally became quiet.Again, I bowed in prayer. "Honk, honk," I heard. I almost jumped out of my skin. A neighbor was driving down the street. He waved at me and smiled. I waved back, happy that he cared. I quickly tried once again to settle down, repeating the familiar verse in my mind. Be still and know that I am God."I'm trying God. I really am," I whispered. "But you've got to help me here."The backdoor opened. My husband walked outside. "I love you," he said. "I was wondering where you were." I chuckled, as he came over and kissed me, then turned around and went back inside."Where's the quiet time?" I asked God. My heart fluttered. There was no pain, only a beat that interrupted me yet again. This is impossible, I thought. There's no time to be still and to know that God is with me. There's too much going on in the world and entirely too much activity all around me.Then it suddenly dawned on me. God was speaking to me the entire time I was attempting to be still. I remembered the music playing as I'd begun my quiet time. He sent a sparrow to lighten my life with song. He sent a gentle breeze. He sent a neighbor to let me know that I had a friend. He sent my sweetheart to offer sincere sentiments of love. He caused my heart to flutter to remind me of life. While I was trying to count my blessings, God was busy multiplying them.I laughed to realize that the "interruptions" of my quiet time with God were special blessings He'd sent to show me He was with me the entire time.18Plant a Row for the Hungry。

超经典英语美文20篇超经典英语美文精选20篇超经典英语美文【篇1】Man's youth is a wonderful thing： it's so full of anguish and of magic and he never comes to know it as it is， until it has gone from him forever. It is the thing he cannot bear to lose， it's the thing whose passing he watches with infinite sorrow and regret，it's the thing whose loss with a sad and secret joy， the thing he would never willingly relive again， could it be restored to him by any magic.青春奇妙无穷，充满魅力，充满痛楚。
青春年少的时候根本不知青春为何物，直到青春一去不复返了才对青春有了真正的认识。
谁都想让青春永驻，不忍青春离去；眼睁睁地看着青春流逝，心中会涌起无穷的忧伤和惋惜；青春的失去是人们永远感到悲哀的事；青春的失去是人们真正觉得悲喜交集的事；即便奇迹出现青春复苏，谁都不会心甘情愿重度青春的岁月。
超经典英语美文【篇2】Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth. And what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignant ， so unutterable， with such a bitter pain and joy，when we are young? It's this： that being rich， we are so poor；that being mighty，we can yet have nothing；that seeing，breathig， smelling， tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth， feeling with an intolerable certitude that the whole structure of the enchanted life – the most fortunate，wealthy， good， and happy life that any man has ever known –is ours – is ours at once， immediately and forever， the moment that we choose to take a step，or stretch a hand，or say aword—— we yet know that we can really keep， hold， take，and possess forever—— nothing. All passes； nothing lasts： the moment that we put our hand upon it ， it melts away like smoke，is gone forever， and the snake is eating at our heart again； we see then what we are and what our lives must come to.为什么如此？因为在青春时代，生活充满了奇特而辛酸的不可思议的事。

新概念一生必读的英语经典美文第47篇：让个性大放异彩（双语）
新概念英语晨读系列之一生必读48篇英文美文，优秀的美文都是至情至性的杰作，其优美
文辞的背后，总是蕴涵着深刻的47.Add luster to your personality 让个性大放异彩
In the eternal universe, every human being has a one-off chance to live --his
existence is unique and irretrievable, for the mold with which he was made, as
Rousseau said, was broken by God immediately afterwards.
在茫茫宇宙间，每个人都只有一次生存的机会，都是一个独一无二、不可重复的存 在。正
像卢梭所说的，上帝把你造出来后，就把那个属于你的特定的模子打碎了。
Fame, wealth and knowledge are merely worldly possessions that are within the reach
of anybody striving for them. But your experience of and feelings about life are
your own and not to be shared. No one can live your life over again after your death.
A full awareness of this will point out to you that the most important thing in your
existence is your distinctive individuality or something special of yours. What
really counts is not your worldly success but your peculiar insight into the meaning
of life and your commitment to it, which add luster to your personality.
名声、财产、知识等等是身外之物，人人都可求而得之，但没有人能够代替你感受 人生。
你死之后，没有人能够代替你再活一次。如果你真正意识到了这一点，你就会明 白，活在
世上，最重要的事就是活出你自己的特色和滋味来。你的人生是否有意义，衡 量的标准不
是外在的成功，而是你对人生意义的独特领悟和坚守，从而使你的自我闪放 出个性的光华。
It is not easy to be what one really is. There is many a person in the world who
can be identified as anything either his job, his status or his social role that
shows no trace about his individuality. It does do him justice to say that he has
no identity of his own, if he doesn't know his own mind and all his things are either
arranged by others or done on others' sugg estions; if his life, always occupied
by external things, is completely void of an inner world. You won't be able to find
anything whatever, from head to heart, that truly belongs to him. He is, indeed,
no more than a shadow cast by somebody else or a machine capable of doing business.
真正成为自己不是一件容易的事。世上有许多人，你说他是什么都行，例如是一种 职业，
一个身份，一个角色，惟独不是他自己。如果一个人总是按别人的意见生活，没 有自己的
独立思索，总是为外在事务忙碌，没有自己的内心生活，那么，说他不是他自 己就一点儿
也没有冤枉他。因为确确实实，从他的头脑到他的心灵，你在其中已经找不 到丝毫真正属
于他自己的东西了，他只是别人的一个影子或一架办事的机器罢了。
