And then my heart with pleasure fills, 于是,我心充满喜悦,

Right Beside You 身边总有你
The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the young woman with the white cane made her way1 carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and then, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, settled in to one. She placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, thirty-four, became blind. As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. All she had to cling to2 was her husband Mark.
Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he became determined to use every means possible to help his wife.
Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too frightened to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening until she got the hang of3 it. And that is exactly what happened.
For two weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to4 her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat.
Each morning they made the journey together, and Mark would take a taxi back to his office. Although that meant he had to travel through the city and the routine was costly and exhausting, Mark knew it was only a matter of① time before Susan would be able to ride the bus on her own. He believed in her.
Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. Monday morning arrived. Before she left, she embraced her husband tightly. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their separate ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and a wild gaiety5 took hold of Susan. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, “Miss, I sure envy you.” Curious, Susan asked the driver why.
“You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute6 and walks away. You are one lucky lady,” the bus driver said.
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. She was so lucky for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe—the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.
当这个手持白杖的年轻女子小心翼翼地上车时,车上的乘客都向她投去怜悯的目光。她向司机付了车费之后,双手摸索着座位,然后坐好,把公文包放在膝盖上,手杖靠着腿。
34岁的苏珊失明已有一年了。一起医疗事故夺去了她的视力,她顿时陷入黑暗之中,内心充满愤怒、沮丧,还有顾影自怜,而她可以依靠的只有她的丈夫马克了。
马克是名空军军官,他深爱着苏珊。苏珊失明的头些日子,他眼睁睁地看着妻子陷入绝望,心里打定主意,要尽一切办法帮助她。
苏珊终于愿意重返工作岗位了。可她怎么去上班呢?以前都是乘公交车去的,但是她现在很害怕,自己一个人不敢在城里转。于是马克自告奋勇早晚坐公车接送,直到她可以一个人应付。这就是事情的经过。
整整两周,马克每天都一身戎装,陪着苏珊一起上下班,教她怎么凭借其他感官,尤其是听觉,判断她所处的位置,以及如何适应新的环境。他还帮她与司机交好,这样司机能照顾她,并给她留个座位。
每天早上,他们都一起同行,然后马克再乘出租车回去上班。尽管马克得穿过整座城市,而且疲惫不堪,又花费不菲,但是他坚信苏珊一定能独立乘车的,只是时间问题。
最后,苏珊决定自己独自坐车上班。星期一上午,临行前,她紧紧地拥抱着自己的丈夫,眼里蓄满了感激的泪水,感谢他的忠诚,他的耐心,还有他的爱。她向他道了别,他们第一次朝着不同的方向走去。周一、周二、周三、周四……每天她的独行之旅都很顺利,苏珊感到一阵狂喜。她成功了!她真的能一个人去上班了!
周五早上,苏珊照常乘公共汽车去上班。就要下车了,司机说:“小姐,我真羡慕你啊。”苏珊感到很奇怪,便问司机为什么。
“是这样的,上星期,每天早上都有一个仪表堂堂穿着军装的男士一直站在拐弯处看着你下车,看着你安全地穿过街道,又看着你走进办公楼,他向你飞一个吻,冲你行个礼,然后才动身离去。你真是个幸运的姑娘啊!” 司机说。
苏珊的脸上流下幸福的泪水。她是幸运的,因为马克给了她比视力更珍贵的礼物,一份她不需要看就能体会到的礼物——这就是爱的礼物,它能给黑暗带来光明。

YOUTH
By Samuel Ullman 塞缪尔·厄尔曼
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not amatter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of thewill, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is thefreshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by anumber of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the springback to st.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure ofwonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy ofthe game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is awireless
station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer,courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20,but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, thereis hope you may die young at 80.

Immediately, all the other frogs in the groupgathered around the pit and watched as the imprisoned frogs tried tojump out. The frogs on top could see that the pit was very deep and itlooked as if there was no way out, so they started yelling at the twofrogs in the pit to give up. "The pit is too deep. You're as good asdead," the chorus of frogs said. When the trapped frogs kept trying,the crowd yelled louder, "Give up. You're as good as dead." After awhile, one of the exhausted frogs took heed to what the others weresaying, and fell down and died.
But amazingly, the second frog kept jumping as hard as she coulddespite the negative remarks of those that kept yelling at her toaccept the inevitable and just die. Finally, with one valiant leap, shemade it out of the pit!
This amazing result occurred because the second frog was deaf annable to hear what the others had been saying. She thought they hadbeen cheering her on the entire time they were yelling! What she hadmistakenly perceived as encouragement inspired her to try harder andsucceed against all odds. And that made all the difference!
With a positive mindset, and being deaf to others' opinions, thesecond frog made use of such negativity to overcome obstacles and reachher goals by using it as encouragement, instead of being influenced byothers like the first frog, who failed to develop her potential tostrive for survival. Thus, when we surmount others' criticism, ridiculeor cynical comments, we can do anything we set our minds to, just asthe second frog did. But, if we are not deaf like this frog, who couldnot be influenced by others e to a physical condition, we need the Wisdom to guide us to the proper way, so as not to be blindly guided byworldly opinion.

What would you do if you had such an account?
Draw out every cent, every day, of course!
Well, each of us has such an account. Its name is TIME.
Every morning, time credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever you have failed to put to use. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft.
Each day, time opens a new account for you. Each night, it burns whatever remains in the account. If you fail to use up all of the day’s deposits, you can’t keep them for tomorrow. Neither can you draw from what will be put in the next morning.
Time’s clock runs non-stop.

每天,时间都会给你开启一个新账户;每晚,都会清除账户上的余额(时间)。如果你没有用尽当天的时间存款,你也不可能留着以备明天之用,而且你也不可能预支第二天的时间。

A woman baked chapatti for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!”
一个女人给家人烤薄饼,还留出一个给饥肠辘辘的路人。她总是把留出的那个放在窗台上,每天都有一个驼背的人来拿走薄饼。他没说过一句“谢谢”,反而总是边走边咕哝着:“善有善报,恶有恶报!”
The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, she decided to do away with him. She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him!
女人很生气,她自言自语地说:“这个驼背人从没说过谢谢,却每天都重复这句话,是什么意思呀?”一天,她决定弄死他,就在为他准备的薄饼上下了毒。
『玖』 英语美文小短文欣赏
英语美文小短文是课堂英语学习的补充阅读材料,能让学生在课后自行阅读和背诵,这样有利于学生扩充课外知识,培养语感和兴趣。这些英语短文往往都蕴含着积极向上的主题,使学生感受到英语的魅力和阅读的快乐,从而激发对英语的学习兴趣以及获得情感上的升华。那么,如何欣赏英语美文小短文呢?
一、英语美文小短文中的英语知识
英语美文的篇幅都是很短小精炼的,由学生所学过的基础的短句、句子所构成,句式成分简单清晰,易于学生的理解。当学生在阅读英语美文的时候,可以一边进行英语知识的复习,一边进行英语知识的积累和延伸。经常会出现同一个知识点在课本中和在美文中的运用有所不同,这样来说,十分有利于学生在学习英语时培养出举一反三的发散性思维能力。
二、英语美文小短文中的写作技巧
英语美文“麻雀虽小”,但是它的“五脏俱全”,小编这里指的就是英语美文的结构整体上是很完整的。短文的好处就是能够把一篇陌生的英语文章的结构清晰地展现在学生的面前,不会因为篇幅过长而使得学生感到厌倦。文中的开头、主要内容、结尾段落划分十分清楚,即使是段落中间每一句话也是层层递进,有逻辑关系的,而且写作时运用的语法也很简单、词组准确,为学生模仿练习英语写作提供了模板和技巧,带给学生写作形式上的点拨。
三、英语美文小短文中的情感价值
英语美文的“美”表现在学生阅读时所产生的审美、脑海中的形象美和情感上的熏陶等方面,这也是英语美文和其他英语材料所不同的地方。上述两点侧重的是英语美文对于学生的知识和技能上面的培养,它存在于学生学习中的最大价值就是美文对于学生情感态度和价值观上的培养。学生在理解英语美文的基础上,进行自我感知,形成自己的体会,受用于生活的方方面面。
英语美文小短文不仅可以使学生开阔视野,增长知识,培养良好的英语自学能力和阅读能力,可以进一步巩固课内学到的英语知识,提高学生的理解水平和体会到作文的魅力,受到一定程度的写作能力熏陶。更重要的是让孩子们进一步明白做人的道理,使学生能健康快乐地成长。
