励志英语散文名篇欣赏
"We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose page are infinite..."
“我们正在读一本书的第一章第一行,这本书的页数是无限的……”
I don't know who wrote these words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it. We can take mysterious,hazy future and carve out of it
anything that we can imagine, just as sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
我不知道是谁写的,可我很喜欢这句话,它提醒我们未来是由自己创造的。我们可以把神秘、不可预知的未来塑造成我们想象中的任何模样,犹如雕刻家将未成形的石头刻成雕像一样。
We are all in the position of the farmer. if we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest.If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
我们每个人都像是农夫。洒下良种将有丰收,播下劣种或生满野草便将失去收成。没有耕耘则会一无所获。
I want the future to be better than the past. I don't want it contaminate by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is
where we will spend the remainder of our lives.
我希望未来比过去更加美好,希望未来不会沾染历史的错误与过失。我们都应举目向前,因为我们的余生要用未来书写。
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic.Everything we do will affect it. Each day brings with it new frontiers,in our homes and in
our business, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.
往昔已逝,静如止水;我们无法再作改变。而前方的未来正生机勃勃;我们所做的每一件事都将会影响着它。只要我们认识到这些,无论是在家中还是在工作上,每天我们的面前都会展现出新的天地。在人类致力开拓的每一片领域上,我们正站在进步的起跑点。
People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve
millions of books, documents and records of the past. Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and the
history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations of statesmen and the campaigns of armies?
人们常常心存疑虑,为什么历史学家要费尽周折地保存数以万计过去的书籍、文献和记录。我们为什么要有图书馆呢?这些文献和史书有何用处呢?我们为什么要记载并保存人类的行为、政治家的谈判和军队的战役呢?
Because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen. And because, sometimes, past records, correctly interpreted, can give us warning of what to do and what not to do.
因为,有时候经验之谈能促使我们停步、观察和倾听。也因为有时候过去的记载经过正确的诠释,可以给我们一种警示,告诉我们何事可做、何事不可做。
If we are ever to create enduring peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the record of human idealism. From the story of the fortitude, courage and devotion of men and
women, we create the inspirations of youth. From stories of the ancient cave dwellers right down to today's environmental activists, history records people's success, intelligence and strength.
Surely from these records there can come help to mankind in our confusions and promote and in our desires for peace.
如果我们想要永保和平,我们就必须从人类经验以及人类追求理想的历程中去探索其渊源。从体现男性和女性不屈不挠、勇敢和奉献精神的故事之中,我们获得了青春的启示。远自基督教殉道者,近到布达佩斯的当代英勇烈士,历史记载着人类的一切苦难、克己、忠诚和英勇的事迹。当然,那些记载一定会对处于困惑、茫然和渴望和平的人们有所助益。 The supreme purpose of history is a better world. History gives a warning to those who would promote war. History brings inspiration to those who seek peace. In short, history helps us learn.
Yesterday's records can keep us from repeating yesterday's mistakes. And from all these records, we can see the progress of mankind.
历史的终极目的是创造一个更加美好的世界。历史对那些力主战争的人加以警告。对于那些追寻和平的人予以启示。简而言之,历史帮助我们学习。昨日的记载可以使我们避
免重蹈覆辙。而这些由历史学家所汇集的镶嵌图案艺术品,将会逐渐成为表现人类进步的伟大壁画。
感谢您的阅读,祝您生活愉快。
