英语优美段落及译文
Night is thick no stars anyplace but sudden the moon moves.The chafe of needles is too much hurt and there is no resting there at all.I get down and look for a better place. By moonlight I am happy to find a hollow log, but it it wavy with ants. I break off twigs and small branches from a young fir,pile them and crawl under.The needle prick is smaller and there is no danger of falling.The ground is damp,chill.Night voles come close,sniff me then dart away.I am watchful for snakes that ease down trees and over ground,although Lina says theydo not prefer to bite us or swallow us whole.I lie still and try not to think of water.Thinking instead of another night,another place of wet ground.But it issummer then and the damp is from dew not snow.You are telling me about the making of iron things.How happy you are to find easy ore so close to the surface of the earth.The glory of shaping metal.Yourfather doing it and his father before him back and backfor a thousand years.With furnaces from termite mounds.And you know the ancestors approve when two owls appear at the very instant you say their names so you understand theye are showing themselves to bless you.See,you also,you tell me.Do they bless me too,I ask.Wait,you say.Wait and see.I think they do,because I am coming now.I am coming to you.Lina says there are some spirits who look after warriors and hunters and there are others who guard virgins and mothers.I am none of those. Reverend Father says communion is the best hope,prayer the next.There is no communion hereabouts and I feel shame to speak to the Virgin when all I am asking for is not to her liking.I think Mistress has nothing to say on the matter.She avoids the Baptists and the village women who go to the meetinghouse.They annoy her as when we there,Mistress,Sorrow and me,go to sell two calves.They are trotting behindus on rope to the cart.we ride in. We wait while Mistress dose the trader’s post where a village woman slaps her face many times and screams at her.When Mistress discovers what is happening,both her face and the village woman’s burn in anger. Sorrow is relieving herself in the yard without care for the eyes of others.The argue is done and Mistress drives us away.After a while she pulls the horse to a stop.She turns to Sorrow and slaps her face more,saying Fool.I am shock.Mistress never strikes us.Sorrow does not cry or answer.I think Mistress says other words to her.,softer ones,but I am only seeing how her eyes go.Their look is close to the way of the women who stare at Lina and me as we wait for the Ney brothers.Neither look scares,but it it a hurting thing.But I Know Mistress has a sweeter heart.On a winter day when I amstill small Lina asks her if she can give me the dead daughter’s shoes.They are black with six buttons each.Mistress agrees but when she sees me in them she sudden sits down in the snow and cries.Sir comes and picks her up in his arms and carries her into the house.I Never cry.Even when the woman steals my cloak and shoes and I am freezing on the boat no tears come.These thoughts are sad in me ,so I make me think of you instead.How you say your work in the world is strong and beautiful.I think you are also.No holy spirits are my need.No communion or prayer.You are my protection .Only you.You can be it because you say you are a free man from New Amsterdam and always are that.Not like Will or Scully but like Sir.I don’t know the feeling of or what it means ,free and not free.But I have a memory.When Sir’s gate is done and you are away so long,I walk sometimes to search you .Behind the new house,the rise ,over the hill beyond.I see a path between rows of elm trees and enter it.Underfoot is weed and soil. In a while the path turns away from the elms and to my right is land dropping away in rocks.To my left is a hill.High, very high.Climbing over it all,up up,are scarlet flowers I never see before.Everywhere choking their own leaves.The scent is sweet,I put my hand in to gather a few blossoms.I hearsomething behind me and turn to see a stag moving up the rock side.He is great.And grand.Standing there between the beckoning wall of perfume and the stag I wonder what else the world may show me. It is as though I am loose to do what I choose,the stag, the wall of flowers. I am a little scare of this looseness.Is that how free feels?I don’t like it. I don’t want to be free of you because I am live only with you.When I choose and say good morning, the stag bounds away.Now I am thinking of another thing.Another animal that shapes choice.Sir bathes every May.We pour buckets of hot water into the washtub and gather wintergreen to sprinkle in. He sits awhile. His knees poke up,his hair is flat and wet over the edge.Soon Mistress is there with first a rock of soap,then a short broom. After he is rosy with scrubbing he stands.She wraps a cloth around to dry him. Later she steps in and splashes herself. He does not scrub her.He is in the house to dress himself.A moose moves through the trees at the edge of the clearing. We all, Mistress,Lina and me,see him,He stands alone looking.Mistress crosses her wrists over her breasts.Her eyes are big and stare.Her face loses its blood.Lina shouts and throws a stone.The moose turns slowly and walks away.Like a chieftain. Still Mistress trembles as though a wicked thing has come.I am thinking how small she looks.It is only a moose who has no interest in her .Or anyone.Mistress does not shout or keep to her splashing. She will not risk to choose. Sir steps out.Mistress stands up and rushes to him . Her naked skin is aslide with wintergreen.Lina and I look at each other . What is she fearing ,I ask.Nothing,says Lina.Why then does she run to Sir?Because she can,Lina answers.Sudden a sheet of sparrows fall from the sky and settle in the trees.So many the trees seem to sprout birds ,not leaves at all.Lina points. We never shape the world she says.The world shapes us.Sudden and silent the sparrows are gone.I am not understanding Lina.You are my shaper and my world as well . It is done. No need to choose.How long will it take will she get lost will he be there will he come will some vagrant rapeher ?She needed shoes,proper shoes,to replace the dirty scraps that covered her feet,and it was only when Lina made her some did she say a word .Rebekka’s thoughts bled into one another,confusing events and time but not p[eople.The need to swallow,the pain of doing so, the unbearable urge to tear her skin from the bones underneath stopped only when she was unconscious—not asleep,because as far as the dreams were concerned it was the same as being awake.―I shat among strangers for six weeks to get to this land.‖She has told this to Lina over and over.Lina being the only one left whose understanding she trusted and whose judgment she valued.Even now,in the deep blue of a spring night,with less sleep than her Mistress,Lina was whispering and shaking a feathered stick around the bed.―Among strangers,‖said Rebekka. ―There was no other way packed like cod between decks.‖She fixed her eyes on Lina who had put away her wand and now knelt by the end .―I know you ,‖said Rebekka, and thought she was smiling although she was not sure.Other familiar faces sometimes hovered,then went away: her daughter;the sailor who helped carry her boxes and tighten their straps;a man on the gallows.No. This face was real .She recognized the dark anxious eyes,the tawny skin.How could she not know the single friend she had?To confirm to herself that moment of clarity,she said. ―Lina.Remember ,do you? We did’t have a fireplace.It was cold. So cold.I thought she was a mute or deaf, you know.Blood is sticky.It never goes awayhowever much…‖Her voice was intense ,confidential as though revealing a secret.Then silence as she fell somewhere between fever and memory.There was nothing in the world to prepare her for a life of water,on water,about water;sickened by it and desperate for it.Mesmerized and bores by the look of it,especially at midday when the women were allowed another hour on deck.Then she talked to the sea.‖Stay still,don’t hurtle me.No.Move,move,excite me.Trust me,I will keep your secrets:that the smell of you is like fresh monthly blood;that you own the globe and land is afterthought to entertain you;that the world beneath you is both graveyard and heaven.‖Immediately upon landing Rebekka’s sheer good fortune in a husband stunned her.Already sixteen,she knew her father would have shipped her off to anyone who would book her passage and relieve him of feeding her.A waterman,he was privy to all sorts of news from colleagues,and when a crewman passed along an inquiry from a first mate—a search for a healthy ,chaste wife willing to travel abroad –he was quick to offer his eldest girl.The stubborn one,the one with too many questions and a rebellious mouth.Rebekka’s mother objected to the ―sale‖—she called it that because the prospective groom had stressed ―reimbursement‖for clothing,expenses and a few supplies—not for love or need of her daughter,but because the husband-to-be was a heaven living among savages,Religion,as Rebekka experienced it from her mother,was a flame fueled by a wondrous hatred.Her parents treated each other and their children with glazed indifference and saved their fire for religious matters.Any drop of generosity to a stranger threatened to douse the blaze.Rebekka’s understanding of God was faint,except as a larger kind of king,but she quieted the shame of insufficient devotion by assuming that He could be no grander nor better than the imagination of the believer.Shallow believers preferred a shallow god .The timid enjoyed a rampaging avenging god.In spite of her father’s eagerness,her mother warned her that savages or nonconformists would slaughter her as soon as she landed,so when Rebekka found Lina already there,waiting outside the one-room cottage her new huaband had built for them,she bolted the door at night and wouls not let the raven-haired girl with impdssible skin sleep anywhere near.Fourteen or so,stone-faced she was,and it took a while for trust between them.Perhaps because both were alone without family,or because both had to please one man,or because both were hopelessly ignorant of how to run a farm, they because what was for each a companion.A pair,anyway,the result of the mute alliance that comes of sharing tasks.Then, whenthe first infant was born,Lina handled it so tenderly,with such knowing,Rebekka was ashamed of her early fears and pretended she’d never had them.Now,lying in bed, her hands wrapped and bound against selfmutilation,her lips drawn back from her teeth,she turned her fate over to others and became prey to scenes of past disorder.The first hangings she saw in the square amid a happy crowd attending.She was probably two yearsols,and the death faces would have frightened her if the crowd had not mocked and enjoyed them so.With the rest of her family and most of their neighbors,she was present at a drawing and quartering and,although she was too young to remember the details,her nightmares were made permanently vivid by years of retelling and redescribing by her parents.She did not know what a Fifth Monarchist was,then or now,but it was clear in her household that execution was a festivity as exciting as a king’s parade.Brawls,knifings and kidnaps were so common in the city of her birth that the warnings of slaughter in a new, unseen world were like threats of bad weather.The very year she stepped off the ship a mighty settlers-versus-natives war two hundred mils away was over before she heard of it .The intermittent skirmishes of men against men,arrows against powder,fire against hatchet thatshe heard of could not match the gore of what she had seen since childhood . The pile of frisky,still living entrails held before the felon’s eyes then thrown into a bucket and tossed into the Thames;fingers trembling for a lost torso;the hair of a woman guilty of mayhem bright with pared to that ,death by shipwreck or tomahawk paled.She did not know what other settler families nearby once knew of routine dismemberment,but she did not share their dread when,three months after the incident ,news came of a pitched battle .a kidnap or a peace gone awry.The squabbles between local tribes or militia peppering parts of the region seemed a distant ,manageable backdrop in a land of such space and perfume.The absence of city and shipboard stench rocked her into a kind of drunkenness that it took years to sober up from and take sweet air for granted.Rain itself became a brand-new thing:clean,sootless water falling from the sky .She clasped her hands under her chin gazing at trees taller than a cathedral,wood for warmth so plentiful it made her laugh,then weep ,for her brothers and the children freezing in the city she had left behind,She had never seen birds like these,or tasted fresh water that ran over visible white stones.There was adventure in learning to cook game she’d never heard of and acquiring a taste for roast swan.Well,yes,there were monstrous storms here with snow piled higher than the sill of a shutter.And summer insects swarmed with song louder than chiming steeple bells.Yet the thought of what her life would have been had she stayed crushed into those reeking streets,spat on by lords and prostitutes,curtseying,curtseying, curtseying,still repelled her.Here she answered to her husband alone and paid polite attendance(time and weather permitting )to the only meetinghouse in the area.Anabaptists who were not the Satanists her parents called them ,as they did all Separatists,but sweet ,generous people for all their confounding views.Views that got them and the horrible Quakers beaten bloody in their own meetinghouse back home.Rebekka had no bone-deep hostility.Even the king had pardoned a dozen of them on their fury at an easily swayed monarch.Her discomfort in a garret full of constant argument,bursts of enraged envy and sullen disapproval of anyone not like them made her impatient for some kind of escape.Any kind.There had been an early rescue,however,and the possibility of better things in Church School where she was chosen as one of four to be trained for domestic service.But the one place that agreed to take her turned out to require running from the master and hiding behind doors.She lasted four days.After that no one offered her another place.Then came the bigger rescue when her father got notice of a man looking for a strong wife rather than a dowry.Betwwen the warning of immediate slaughter and the promise of married bliss,she believed in neither.Yet without money or the inclination to peddle goods,open a stall or be apprenticed in exchange for food and shelter,with even nunneries for the upper class banned , her prospects were servant,prostitute,wife ,and although horrible stories were told about each of those careers,the last one seemed safest.The one where she might have children and therefore be guaranteed some affection .As with any future available to her, it depended on the character of the man in charge.Hence marriage to an unknown husband in a far-off land had distinct advantages:separation from a mother who had barely escaped the ducking pond;from male siblings who worked days and nights with her father and learned from him their,dismissive attitude toward the sister who had helped rear them;but especially escape from the leers and rude hands of any man,drunken or sober,she might walk by.America.What ever the danger,how could it possibly be worse?Early on when she settled on Jacob’s land,she visited the local church some seven miles away and met a few vaguely suspicious villagers.They had removed themselves from a larger sect in order to practice a purer from of their Separatist religion,one truer and more acceprable to God.Among them she was deliberately softspoken.In their meetinghouse she was accommodating and when they explained their beliefs she did not roll her eyes.It was when they refused to baptize her firstborn,her exquisite daughter,that Rebekka turned away.Weak as her faith was,there was no excuse for not protecting the soul of an infant from eternal perdition.More and more it was in Lina’s company that she let the misery seep out .―I chastised her for a torn shift,Lina,and the next thing I know she is lying in the snow.Her little head cracked like an egg.‖译文夜色很浓，月亮突然移动，天空中看不到星星。

下面是店铺带来的英语美文美句及翻译阅读，欢迎阅读!英语美文美句及翻译阅读篇一professional basketball playerKobe Bryant first started turning heads on the basketball court when he was in middle school. His talents dominated the game so much that high schools from all over the Philadelphia area watched him grow up. The almost six-foot tall seventh grader definitely had the make-up and genes for the game, as his dad was former NBA forward, Joe Bryant. Kobe developed his basketball skills under the watchful eye of his father, helping his mission to become a professional basketball player. He worked daily on his game, watching video, playing in the playgrounds and listening to his father.When he entered high school at Lower Marion in Philadelphia, Kobe was a highly touted recruit. He proved that he had the skills and work ethic to be a star at the next level and the scouts noticed this. Kobe didn't let anybody down either, as he played on the varsity basketball team his freshman year. He wouldn't immediately be a superstar, though. Rather it was the countless hours of early morning workouts by himself in the gymnasium that escalated Kobe's talents.Kobe became a better player every year he played at Lower Marion and soon enough, he had developed into one of the premier talents at the high school level. He sold out the games everywhere he played during his junior and senior years and he didn't disappoint anyone. He once packed the school gym somuch that it caused a traffic jam on the main highway just outside the school.He went on to finish his high school career as the all-time leading point scorer in Pennsylvania history with a total of 2, 883 points. Kobe's highly decorated high school career made him the 13th overall choice by the Charlotte Hornets in the 1996 NBA draft.英语美文美句及翻译阅读篇二honoring mothersSo who came up with the idea of honoring mothers nation-wide on the second Sunday in May?EARLY CELEBRATIONS Some historians claim that the predecessor of the Mother's Day holiday was the ancient spring festival dedicated to mother goddesses. In the ancient Greek empire the spring festival honored Rhea, wife of Cronus and mother of the gods and goddesses. In Rome the most significant Mother's Day-like festival was dedicated to the worship of Cybele, another mother goddess. Ceremonies in her honor began some 250 years before Christ was born. This Roman religious celebration, known as Hilaria, lasted for three days - from March 15 to 18!ENGLAND'S MOTHERING SUNDAY More like the modern celebration of Mother's Day is England's "Mothering Sunday", also called Mid-Lent Sunday, observed on the fourth Sunday in Lent. Some say the ceremonies in honor of Cybele were adopted by the early church to venerate the Mother of Christ, Mary. Others believe the Mother Church was substituted for mother goddess and custom began to dictate that a person visit the church of his/her baptism on this day. People attended the mother church of their parish, laden with offerings.Also in England in the 1600's, young men and women who were apprentices or servants returned home on Mothering Sunday, bringing to their mothers small gifts like trinkets or a "mothering cake". Sometimes furmety was served - wheat grains boiled in sweet milk, sugared and spiced.In northern England and in Scotland, the preferred refreshments were carlings - pancakes made of steeped pease fried in butter, with pepper and salt. In fact, in some locations this day was called Carling Sunday.Another kind of mothering cake was the simnel cake, a very rich fruit cake. The Lenten fast dictated that the simnel cake had to keep until Easter. It was boiled in water, then baked, and was often finished with an almond icing. Sometimes the crust was of flour and water, colored with saffron.INTEREST STARTS IN THE UNITED STATES Anna M. Jarvis (1864-1948) is credited with originating our Mother's Day holiday. She never married and was extremely attached to her mother, Mrs. Anna Reese Jarvis. Mrs. Jarvis was a minister's daughter who for 20 years taught Sunday School in the Andrews Methodist Church of Grafton, West Virginia. Miss Jarvis graduated from the Female Seminary in Wheeling, West Virginia, and taught in Grafton before moving to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with the rest of her family.Anna Reese Jarvis died in Philadelphia in May of 1905. Still unmarried and left alone with her blind sister Elsinore, Anna missed her mother greatly. Two years after her mother's death (1907) Anna Jarvis and her friends began a letter-writing campaign to gain the support of influential ministers, businessmen and congressmen in declaring a national Mother's Day holiday. She felt children often neglected to appreciate theirmother enough while the mother was still alive. She hoped Mother's Day would increase respect for parents and strengthen family bonds.THE FIRST MOTHER'S DAY The first Mother's Day observance was a church service honoring Mrs. Anna Reese Jarvis, held at Anna Jarvis's request in Grafton, West Virginia, and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on May 10, 1908.Carnations, her mother's favorite flowers, were supplied at that first service by Miss Jarvis. White carnations were chosen because they represented the sweetness, purity and endurance of mother love. Red carnations, in time, became the symbol of a living mother. White ones now signify that one's mother has died.OTHER MOTHER'S DAY OBSERVANCES The first Mother's Day proclamation was issued by the governor of West Virginia in 1910. Oklahoma celebrated Mother's Day that year as well. By 1911 every state had its own observances. By then other areas celebrating Mother's Day included Mexico, Canada, China, Japan, South America and Africa. The Mother's Day International Association was incorporated on December 12, 1912, with the purpose of furthering meaningful observations of Mother's Day.OFFICIAL PROCLAMATION The House of Representatives in May, 1913, unanimously adopted a resolution requesting the President, his Cabinet, members of Congress, and all officials of the federal government to wear a white carnation on Mother's Day. Congress passed another Joint Resolution May 8, 1914, designating the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. The U.S. flag is to be displayed on government buildings and at people's homes "as a public expression of our love and reverence for the mothers of our country." President Woodrow Wilson issued the first proclamation making Mother's Day an official nationalholiday.SO NOW WHAT?If your mother is still alive, take care to shower her with special attention this Mother's Day. Visit her. Phone her. Send her a card. Give her flowers. Get her gourmet chocolates. Buy her something you know she's been wanting. But don't wait until after her funeral to let her know how much you've appreciated her! Wear your red (or otherwise-colored) carnation proudly.英语美文美句及翻译阅读篇三Good Trade in Bad TimesVirkven Sargu's phone has been ringing all afternoon as anxious Singaporeans ask him to forecast when the city state's recession will end.But with a vermilion caste mark on his forehead and head-to-toe robes in white, Sargu isn't an economist or a banker —— and his predictions aren't limited to the markets.He's a fortune-teller or, as he likes to put it, an astropalmist.Business has been booming in recent months, with more and more people seeking his words of wisdom as they struggle with an economic downturn that the government says will leave as many as 25,000 workers out of a job by the end of this year.“Nowadays in Singapore, so many people are worried about the economy. It was like this when the economy became sick five or so years ago,”Sargu said at his office and home in the city's Little India district, stroking a long, white beard that belies his 44 years.“They're very confused these days and I just try to tell them what to expect,”he said.Bad times have been good to Sargu, even if he's a bit hazy on the numbers.“Sometimes three appointments in an afternoon，Sometimes 10 or more appointments.”Sa rgu is not the only fortune-teller in Singapore to see people queuing for more arcane ways of predicting theirprospects after fund managers may have failed them.Demand is stronger in other Asian countries as well.A recent report by Thai Farmers Research showed Bangkok residents lining up to consult fortune-tellers, with nearly 81 percent of those polled saying they have visited one. The average was two readings a year since the Asian financial crisis began in 1997.萨古先生的电话整个下午都响个不停，焦虑的新加坡人请他预测经济萧条什么时候才会过去。

Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sen ding flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.有时候，我真的怀疑父母之间是否有真爱。

我父亲的脾气非常坏。
经过一天的劳累之后，他经常会发脾气。
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.一天，母亲正在缝被子，我静静地坐在她旁边看着她。
