Thy beauty haunts me heart and soul,
o thou fair moon,so close and bright;
Thy beauty makes me like the child
that cries aloud to own thy light:
The little child that lifts each arm
to press thee to her bosom warm.
Though there are birds that sing this night
with thy white beams across their throats,
Let my deep silence speak for me
more than for them their sweetest notes:
Who worships thee till music fails
is greater than nightingales.
月亮
你的美丽缠绕了我的心和魂,
你美好的月哦,那样近,那样明;
你的美丽使我像个小孩儿
要捉着你的光,发出更大的声音;
小孩举起每一只胳膊,
要把你捉来抱的紧紧。
虽然有些鸟儿在夜里吟唱,
由于你的银光照着它们的颈,
让我深深的沉默谈出我的心
比他们的最美的歌声更有风韵;
对你的崇敬到了沉默无声,
那崇敬是超过了你的夜鸣莺。

A New Look from Borrowed Time By Ralph Richmond
第二次生命的启示 拉尔夫.里士满
Just ten years ago, I sat across the desk from a doctor with a stethoscope. “Yes,” he said, “there is a lesion in the left, upper lobe. You have a moderately advanced case…” I listened, stunned, as he continued, “You’ll have to give up work at once and go to bed. Later on, we’ll see.” He gave me no assurances.
Feeling like a man who in mid-career has suddenly been placed under sentence of death with an indefinite reprieve, I left the doctor’s office, walked over to the park, and sat down on a bench, perhaps, as I then told myself, for the last time. I needed to think. In the next three days, I cleared up my affairs; then I went home, got into bed, and set my watch to tick off not the minutes, but the months. two and a half years and many dashed hopes later, I left my bed and began the long climb back. It was another year before I made it.
十年前的一天,我坐在一名手持听诊器的医生对面。“你的左肺叶上部确实有一处坏损,而且病情正在恶化”——听到这里,我整个人一下懵了。“你必须停止工作卧床休息,有待观察。”医生对我的病情也是不置可否。
就这样,事业方面方兴未艾的我仿佛突然被人判了死刑,却说不准何时执刑。我离开医生的办公室,来到公园的长椅上坐下。这也许是最后一次来这儿了,我对自己说。我真得好好整理一下思绪。接下来的三天我把手头的事务全部处理完毕。我回到家,躺到床上,然后把手表从显示分钟改为显示月份。两年半的时间过去了,在无数次的失望之后,我终于可以离开病床,艰难地向从前的生活状态回归。一年之后,我做到了。
I speak to this experience because these years that past so slowly taught me what to value and what to believe. They said to me: Take time, before time takes you. I realize now that this world I’m living in is not my oyster to be opened but my opportunity to be grasped. Each day, to me, is a precious entity. The sun comes up and presents me with 24 brand new, wonderful hours—not to pass, but to fill.
I’ve learned to appreciate those little, all-important things I never thought I had the time to notice before: the play of light on running water, the music of the wind in my favorite pine tree. I seem now to see and hear and feel with some of the recovered freshness of childhood. How well, for instance, I recall the touch of the springy earth under my feet the day I first stepped upon it after the years in bed. It was almost more than I could bear. It was like regaining one’s citizenship in a world one had nearly lost.
我之所以谈起这段经历,是因为那段度日如年的岁月让我懂得应该珍惜什么,信仰什么。那段岁月让我明白一个道理:牢牢抓住时间,而不是让时间将你套牢。现在我终于明白,我生活着的这个世界不是等待我去打开的一扇牡蛎,而是需要我去抓住的一个机会。每一天我都视若珍宝,每一轮太阳带给我的崭新的二十四小时都鲜活而精彩,我绝不可将其虚度。
从前,我终日忙碌,无暇顾及生活中某些重要的细节,诸如水波上的光影,松林间的风吟——现在,我终于学会去欣赏它们的美好。如今,我仿佛重返童年,又觉得自己所见所闻所感的一切都那么新鲜。当我卧床数年后重新将双脚踏在大地上的那一刻,脚下那久违了的松软土壤让我激动得情难自抑,仿佛重新拥有我差一点就失去的世界。
Frequently, I sit back and say to myself, Let me make note of this moment I’m living right now, because in it I’m well, happy, hard at work doing what I like best to do. It won’t always be like this, so while it is I’ll make the most of it—and afterwards, I remember—and be grateful. All this, I owe to that long time spent on the sidelines of life. Wiser people come to this awareness without having to acquire it the hard way. But I wasn’t wise enough. I’m wiser now, a little, and happier.
“Look thy last on all things lovely, every hour.” With these words, Walter de la Mare sums up for me my philosophy and my belief. God made this world—in spite of what man now and then tries to do to unmake it—a dwelling place of beauty and wonder, and He filled it with more goodness than most of us suspect. And so I say to myself, Should I not pretty often take time to absorb the beauty and the wonder, to contribute a least a little to the goodness? And should I not then, in my heart, give thanks? Truly, I do. This I believe.
我现在时常舒舒服服地坐着,提醒自己要记住当下的每分每秒,因为现在的我健康、快乐,能努力做自己最爱做的工作。这一切如此美好,却终将消逝,在如此美好的生活消逝之前,我一定要倍加珍惜。在它逝去之后,我会记得曾经拥有的美好,并心存感激。这一切改变都得益于我在生命边缘徘徊的那几年。智者无需被逼到如此境地也能明白这些道理——可惜我从前太愚钝。现在的我比从前多了几分睿智,我也因此更加快乐。
英国诗人沃尔特.德拉.梅尔曾说过:“时刻记住,最后看一眼所有美好的事物!”这句诗正好总结了我的人生哲学与信仰。上帝创造的这个世界——这个人类时常试图毁灭的世界——是个美丽奇妙的家园。这里充满了上帝所赐予的美好事物,超过我们大多数人的想象。我于是常常自问,难道自己不应该去细细品味这些美丽与奇迹,尽绵薄之力去创造世间的美好吗?难道我不应心存感激吗?我确实应该——这就是我的信仰。

摘录:许多人做事都没有发挥到自己的全部能力,他们从来没有将自己的全部精力只用在一件事情上,所以他们完全不知道自己拥有的能力。每个人都有自己擅长的方面。如果将个人的精力只用在自己擅长的那一方面,多年之后肯定会有惊人的事情出现。你会为你自己的能力感到惊讶。

名词解释:超级月亮是满月(或新月)与近点月同时发生的近点朔望月。这是描述月球在椭圆轨道上绕着地球公转,行经近地点之时,同时又在日地联线上的专有名词。此种结合的超级月亮被认为会引发海洋、地壳和潮汐的变化,例如地震、火山爆发和海啸发生风险的增加。但是,这种关联性一般是难以令人信服的。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?
The night sky has been illuminated by what appears to be a much bigger and brighter Moon.
The so-called "supermoon" occurs when the Moon reaches its closest point to earth, known as a perigee full moon.
The effect makes the Moon seem 14% bigger and 30% brighter than when it is furthest from the planet.
Skywatchers who miss the phenomenon this time will have to wait until August 2014 for the next one.
一只更大、更亮的“超级月亮”昨晚照亮了夜空。
所谓“超级月亮”,就是当月球运行到了月球轨道的近地点,此时,它离地球的距离最近。
这种现象会使月球看上去比它在远地点时大14%、亮30%。
要是错过了这次机会,可就得要等到2014年8月才能看得到下一个“超级月亮”哟。
文中的supermoon就是“超级月亮”的意思。super-这个前缀,含有“超级”的意思,又如:supermarket 超市(超级市场);superman 超人;supercomputer 超级计算机;superego 超我(弗洛伊德);supermom 超级妈妈;superwoman 女超人。
另外,文中第二段的perigee就是“近地点”的意思;相反,“远地点”的英文表达则是apogee。

Feeling like a man who in mid-career has suddenly been placed under sentence of death with anindefinite reprieve, I left the doctor’s office, walked over to the park, and sat down on abench, perhaps, as I then told myself, for the last time. I needed to think.

It was another year before I made it.
就这样,事业方面方兴未艾的我仿佛突然被人判了死刑,却说不准何时执刑。我离开医生的办公室,来到公园的长椅上坐下。这也许是最后一次来这儿了,我对自己说。我真得好好整理一下思绪。接下来的三天我把手头的事务全部处理完毕。我回到家,躺到床上,然后把手表从显示分钟改为显示月份。两年半的时间过去了,在无数次的失望之后,我终于可以离开病床,艰难地向从前的生活状态回归。一年之后,我做到了。

我之所以谈起这段经历,是因为那段度日如年的岁月让我懂得应该珍惜什么,信仰什么。那段岁月让我明白一个道理:牢牢抓住时间,而不是让时间将你套牢。现在我终于明白,我生活着的这个世界不是等待我去打开的一扇牡蛎,而是需要我去抓住的一个机会。每一天我都视若珍宝,每一轮太阳带给我的崭新的二十四小时都鲜活而精彩,我绝不可将其虚度。
I’ve learned to appreciate those little, all-important things I never thought I had the time tonotice before: the play of light on running water, the music of the wind in my favorite pine tree.I seem now to see and hear and feel with some of the recovered freshness of childhood. Howwell, for instance, I recall the touch of the springy earth under my feet the day I first steppedupon it after the years in bed. It was almost more than I could bear. It was like regaining one’scitizenship in a world one had nearly lost.
如今,我仿佛重返童年,又觉得自己所见所闻所感的一切都那么新鲜。当我卧床数年后重新将双脚踏在大地上的那一刻,脚下那久违了的松软土壤让我激动得情难自抑,仿佛重新拥有我差一点就失去的世界。
Frequently, I sit back and say to myself, Let me make note of this moment I’m living right now,because in it I’m well, happy, hard at work doing what I like best to do. It won’t always be likethis, so while it is I’ll make the most of it—and afterwards, I remember—and be grateful. Allthis, I owe to that long time spent on the sidelines of life.

我现在时常舒舒服服地坐着,提醒自己要记住当下的每分每秒,因为现在的我健康、快乐,能努力做自己最爱做的工作。这一切如此美好,却终将消逝,在如此美好的生活消逝之前,我一定要倍加珍惜。在它逝去之后,我会记得曾经拥有的美好,并心存感激。这一切改变都得益于我在生命边缘徘徊的那几年。智者无需被逼到如此境地也能明白这些道理——可惜我从前太愚钝。现在的我比从前多了几分睿智,我也因此更加快乐。

以下是读文网小编整理的哲理类英语美文欣赏:月亮给我的人生启示, 希望对你有所启发。
When the moon is fullest it begins to wane, When it is darkest it begins to grow.
Chinese Proverb
中国谚语
THERE is a calm wisdom in this old saying that impressed me when I heard it first form a monkof a Buddhist monastery in China. It has often, helped me to retain a good measure ofequanimity under stress and hardship as well as when some unexpected success or goodluck might have made me to exuberant.
这句中国的古话,最初是由佛教寺院中的一位和尚告诉我的,当时给我的印象很深。这实在是一句至理名词,蕴含着冷静的慧智。从那时起,每当我遭逢坎坷困苦,或者遇到可能使我过于兴奋的成功或好运的时候,这句话都曾帮助我保持镇定,泰然处之。
There is hope and consolation in the sure knowledgethat even the darkest hours of pains and troubles won’t last: but also a warning againstoverrating the passing glories of wealth, power and great fortune. A warning and a hope, notonly for the individual, but for government, nations and their leaders, a brief summing up of allthat history and human experience can tell us. And beyond all that we might hear in it an echoof the law and order that holds our universe in safe balance.
这句话提示我们,不论痛苦和忧患的时刻多么黑暗,也不会长久持续下去,因而使我们感到希望和安慰;同时也警告我们,财富、权力、和鸿运当头的荣耀,都只是过眼烟云,不可过于重视。个人如此,国家和政府领袖亦然,这句话箴言所提供的希望和警告,实在是整个历史和人类经验的结晶。除此之外,我们还可以从这句话里面,聆听到使宇宙保持平衡状态的法律与秩序的回声。

摘要:英国诗人沃尔特.德拉.梅尔曾说过:“时刻记住,最后看一眼所有美好的事物!”这句诗正好总结了我的人生哲学与信仰。上帝创造的这个世界——这个人类时常试图毁灭的世界——是个美丽奇妙的家园。
十年前的一天,我坐在一名手持听诊器的医生对面。“你的左肺叶上部确实有一处坏损,而且病情正在恶化”——听到这里,我整个人一下懵了。“你必须停止工作卧床休息,有待观察。”医生对我的病情也是不置可否。
Just ten years ago, I sat across the desk from adoctor with a stethoscope. “Yes, ” he said, “there isa lesion in the left, upper lobe. You have amoderately advanced case…” I listened, stunned, ashe continued, “You’ll have to give up work at onceand go to bed. Later on, we’ll see.” He gave noassurances.
Feeling like a man who in mid-career has suddenly been placed under sentence of death with anindefinite reprieve, I left the doctor’s office, walked over to the park, and sat down on abench, perhaps, as I then told myself, for the last time. I needed to think. In the next threedays, I cleared up my affairs; then I went home, got into bed, and set my watch to tick off notthe minutes, but the months. 2 years and many dashed hopes later, I left my bed and beganthe long climb back. It was another year before I made it.
就这样,事业方面方兴未艾的我仿佛突然被人判了死刑,却说不准何时执刑。我离开医生的办公室,来到公园的长椅上坐下。这也许是最后一次来这儿了,我对自己说。我真得好好整理一下思绪。接下来的三天我把手头的事务全部处理完毕。我回到家,躺到床上,然后把手表从显示分钟改为显示月份。两年半的时间过去了,在无数次的失望之后,我终于可以离开病床,艰难地向从前的生活状态回归。一年之后,我做到了。
I speak of this experience because these years that past so slowly taught me what to value andwhat to believe. They said to me: Take time, before time takes you. I realize now that this worldI’m living in is not my oyster to be opened but my opportunity to be grasped. Each day, tome, is a precious entity. The sun comes up and presents me with 24 brand new, wonderfulhours—not to pass, but to fill.
我之所以谈起这段经历,是因为那段度日如年的岁月让我懂得应该珍惜什么,信仰什么。那段岁月让我明白一个道理:牢牢抓住时间,而不是让时间将你套牢。现在我终于明白,我生活着的这个世界不是等待我去打开的一扇牡蛎,而是需要我去抓住的一个机会。每一天我都视若珍宝,每一轮太阳带给我的崭新的二十四小时都鲜活而精彩,我绝不可将其虚度。
I’ve learned to appreciate those little, all-important things I never thought I had the time tonotice before: the play of light on running water, the music of the wind in my favorite pine tree.I seem now to see and hear and feel with some of the recovered freshness of childhood. Howwell, for instance, I recall the touch of the springy earth under my feet the day I first steppedupon it after the years in bed. It was almost more than I could bear. It was like regaining one’scitizenship in a world one had nearly lost.
如今,我仿佛重返童年,又觉得自己所见所闻所感的一切都那么新鲜。当我卧床数年后重新将双脚踏在大地上的那一刻,脚下那久违了的松软土壤让我激动得情难自抑,仿佛重新拥有我差一点就失去的世界。
Frequently, I sit back and say to myself, Let me make note of this moment I’m living right now,because in it I’m well, happy, hard at work doing what I like best to do. It won’t always be likethis, so while it is I’ll make the most of it—and afterwards, I remember—and be grateful. Allthis, I owe to that long time spent on the sidelines of life. Wiser people come to thisawareness without having to acquire it the hard way. But I wasn’t wise enough. I’m wisernow, a little, and happier.
我现在时常舒舒服服地坐着,提醒自己要记住当下的每分每秒,因为现在的我健康、快乐,能努力做自己最爱做的工作。这一切如此美好,却终将消逝,在如此美好的生活消逝之前,我一定要倍加珍惜。在它逝去之后,我会记得曾经拥有的美好,并心存感激。这一切改变都得益于我在生命边缘徘徊的那几年。智者无需被逼到如此境地也能明白这些道理——可惜我从前太愚钝。现在的我比从前多了几分睿智,我也因此更加快乐。
“Look thy last on all things lovely, every hour.” With these words, Walter de la Mare sums upfor me my philosophy and my belief. God made this world—in spite of what man now and thentries to do to unmake it—a dwelling place of beauty and wonder, and He filled it with moregoodness than most of us suspect. And so I say to myself, Should I not pretty often take timeto absorb the beauty and the wonder, to contribute a least a little to the goodness? Andshould I not then, in my heart, give thanks? Truly, I do. This I believe.
英国诗人沃尔特.德拉.梅尔曾说过:“时刻记住,最后看一眼所有美好的事物!”这句诗正好总结了我的人生哲学与信仰。上帝创造的这个世界——这个人类时常试图毁灭的世界——是个美丽奇妙的家园。这里充满了上帝所赐予的美好事物,超过我们大多数人的想象。我于是常常自问,难道自己不应该去细细品味这些美丽与奇迹,尽绵薄之力去创造世间的美好吗?难道我不应心存感激吗?我确实应该——这就是我的信仰。

当逆境找上你时,你该如何应对呢? 下面是读文网小编为大家带来英语经典美文:生活的启示 ,希望大家喜欢!
有一个女孩向她父亲抱怨她的生活,她觉得凡事都很艰难,不知该怎样挺过去,想放弃。她厌倦了不断的抗争和奋斗,似乎一个问题刚刚解决,另一个问题马上呈现。
她的父亲是个厨师,他把她带到了厨房。他在三个壶里分别装满了水,然后放到高温的火上烧。很快,壶里的水被煮开了。他往第一个壶里放了些胡萝卜,往第二个壶里放了几个鸡蛋,在最后一个壶里放了些磨碎的咖啡豆,然后,一句话也没说,他由着水把它们煮沸。
女儿咂巴着牙齿发出声响,不耐烦地等着,对父亲的行为感到很纳闷。大约二十分钟后,父亲关掉了火炉,把胡萝卜捞出来,放到一个碗里。又把鸡蛋拣出来放进另一个碗里,接着把咖啡用勺子舀出来倒进一个杯子里,然后转过头来,对她说,“亲爱的,你看到的是什么?”
“胡萝卜、鸡蛋和咖啡。”她答道。
父亲把她带近了这些东西,要她去摸胡萝卜,她摸了之后,注意到,它们变柔软了。然后,他又要她去拿一个鸡蛋并把它敲破,在把壳剥掉之后,她观察了这个煮熟的鸡蛋。最后,父亲要她饮一口咖啡。尝着芳香四溢的咖啡,她微笑起来。
“这是什么意思,父亲?”她谦逊地问道。
父亲解释说,这三样东西面临着同样的逆境——煮沸的水。但它们的反应却各不相同。胡萝卜本是硬的,坚固而且强度大,但受到煮沸的水的影响后,它变得柔软而脆弱。鸡蛋本来易碎,薄薄的外壳保护着内部的液体。但是在经历过煮沸的水以后,它的内部却变得坚硬。不过,最独特的却是磨碎的咖啡豆,当它们被放入煮沸的水之后,它们却改变了水。
“哪一个是你呢?”他问女儿。
当逆境找上你时,你该如何应对呢? 你是胡萝卜、鸡蛋,还是咖啡豆?

这些出自于上帝的创造,都是永恒的,正如伟大的艺术家们所创造的音乐和画作也是上帝赐予的,也是永恒的一样。下面是读文网小编为大家带来英语经典美文:飞行轰炸途中的启示,希望大家喜欢!
One day while piloting a bomber through the war skies of Europe, I came to believe in the immortality of man. There was not any melodrama attached to this awakening. Only through the thousand details of a mind absorbed in a bomb run came the discovery of a single fact: “Know ye the truth, and the truth shall make ye free.”
一天,在我驾驶轰炸机飞越战火纷飞的欧洲上空时,我突然开始相信人的不朽。这次顿悟不带任何戏剧性。只是在这次飞行轰炸途中脑子里出现的无数个念头当中,我突然发现了一个再简单不过的事实:“你们必晓得真理,真理必叫你们得以自由。”
Below me were the Alps, and the vision of Hannibal crossing them in his time of war flashed through my mind, followed in rapid succession by the remembrance of all the histories of wars. I looked at the bomber machinery about me and at the battle signs of destruction below and realized this was only one of the thousands of wars man has been engaged in, and still he has flourished. So then, like the warm sun and friendly heaven and God’s other features about me, man, too, must be permanent.The warmth that came into the subzero cockpit with this divine realization made me know that here, at least for me, was the key to a happiness which had been missing before. The feeling of a day-to-day existence without hope for the tomorrow, changed to a sense of security and the knowledge of having a future. With this truth in mind, one cannot help but try to make a better world to live in.
我下面是阿尔卑斯山脉,迦太基军队的统帅汉尼拔在战争期间穿越它的景象在我的脑海里闪过,紧接着是一幕幕关于所有战争历史的回忆。我注视着身旁的轰炸机设备以及下面战场的摧毁标志,突然意识到这只不过是人类所经历过的无数战争中的一次,尽管如此,人类依然生生不息。因此,正如温暖的太阳、舒适的天堂和我周围上帝所创造的其他生灵一样,人类也一定是永恒不朽的。驾驶舱内的温度在零度以下,然而这一神圣的顿悟却使舱内暖意融融。我意识到,至少对我而言,这就是开启已经丢失很久的幸福之门的钥匙。过一天算一天,不希求有明天的感觉顿时变成了未来的安全感。心里有了这条真理,人们就会努力去创造一个更美好的生活家园。
This awakening came late to me, but with my children it will not be left to happenstance, for I have long since begun to show them the tying in of man’s immortality with the ageless evidences which are everywhere about us: the great artist’s glorious paintings of the heavens at sunrise and sunset; the delicate fragrance of a rose; the simple miracle of a newly born lamb; the massive majesty of snowcapped, purple mountains; the mysterious, many-faced sea hiding a thousands other worlds beneath its cloak; the twinkling lights from stars a billion miles away. They have learned these things are of God and are immortal, just as the music and the paintings of the old masters are God-given and ageless.
这种顿悟对我来说来得迟了些,但这样的偶然事件决不会发生在我的孩子们身上,因为我早就开始让他们看到人类的不朽和我们周围无处不在的永恒之间的联系——造物主对日出日落时天堂辉煌景象的描绘,一朵玫瑰的幽香,一只初生羊羔身上展示的生命奇迹,顶峰被积雪覆盖的伟岸的紫色群山,大海在它神秘多变的外衣下所掩藏的无数其他的世界,遥远的星空中星辰闪耀的光芒。他们懂得了这些都出自于上帝的创造,都是永恒的,正如伟大的艺术家们所创造的音乐和画作也是上帝赐予的,也是永恒的一样。
“But Daddy,” they have asked me, “the papers say the Atom Bomb will kill off the human race someday, is that so?” How certainly I can assure them now, believing in the imperishability of man as I do. People said that when the spear came into existence, and the bow and arrow, and guns and bullets, and planes and bombs. But there has been someone more powerful than all these forces, and so we are here today, greater in number, healthier in body, and more advanced in science and learning than ever.Have patience with all this hysteria, I tell them. After all, mankind is only a youngster, like one of you. The Earth is an unknown millions of years old, while man is a mere 6,000 years of age. Mankind is still growing up, comparatively, and his growth can be likened to your own. Its like you and the neighboring children who have words and fight. Someone gets a black eye, but you make up and then you work and play together again, and as you grow more mature you fight less often because you become more intelligent. So will it be with the world.
“可是,爸爸,”他们曾经问我,“报纸上说有一天原子弹会毁灭全人类。是真的吗?”现在我能明确地告诉他们,因为我相信人类是永恒不朽的,“矛出现时就有人那样说。此后有了弓和箭,又有了枪和子弹,飞机和炸弹。但是总有比这些武器更强大的力量存在,因此今天我们人类不断地繁衍,身体越来越健壮,科学越来越先进,知识越来越丰富。对所有这些歇斯底里要耐心一些,”我告诉他们,“毕竟人类像你们一样还很年轻。地球已经有不知少百万年的历史了,而人类只有六千年的历史。比较而言,人类仍然在成长,就像你们一样。就像你和邻居的孩子争吵打架,有人眼睛被打青,但你们会重归于好,然后又在一起学习玩耍,你逐渐长大成熟,就不会经常和别人打架,因为你变得更理智。世界也是这样。”
In giving these simple facts to my children, I continually add to my own faith in mankind. I believe man is basically good in heart, spiritually indestructible, and his place in the sun is assured because he is in God’s image. I believe all these things, sincerely; but more important, my children believe them, for it is they who hold the combination to man’s future peace and happiness.
向孩子们讲解这些简单事实时,我自己对人类的信念也不断增长。我相信人类本质上心地善良,精神不可摧毁,在太阳下的地位很牢固,因为他是按照上帝的形象创造出来的。我真诚地相信所有这一切——但更重要的是——我的孩子们相信这些,因为他们把握着人类未来的和平与幸福。

Just ten years ago, I sat across the desk from a doctor with a stethoscope. “Yes,” he said, “there is a lesion in the left, upper lobe. You have a moderately advanced case…” I listened, stunned, as he continued, “You’ll have to give up work at once and go to bed. Later on, we’ll see.” He gave me no assurances.

从前,我终日忙碌,无暇顾及生活中某些重要的细节,诸如水波上的光影,松林间的风吟——现在,我终于学会去欣赏它们的美好。如今,我仿佛重返童年,又觉得自己所见所闻所感的一切都那么新鲜。当我卧床数年后重新将双脚踏在大地上的那一刻,脚下那久违了的松软土壤让我激动得情难自抑,仿佛重新拥有我差一点就失去的世界。

英语散文以优美的语言、流畅的句子、生动的描述,给人以美的享受,满足人类心灵的要求,具有很高的审美属性。下面读文网小编为大家带来励志英语散文:乞丐的启示,欢迎大家阅读!
In every man there is a king. Speak to the king, and the king will come forth.
Outside our hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, a seemingly ancient woman on crutches waited beside the door with her hand outstretched. Every day I put my hand in hers as our eyes met. She never failed to return my smile, my grasp, and my sin chau greeting.
On the last day of our visit, I found myself alone on a busy corner across the street from our hotel. Bicycles and motorbikes careened in front of me. We had been advised to walk straight through the teeming traffic without looking right or left. Let them avoid us.
But tonight I was by myself and felt inadequate to face the torrent of vehicles. As I hesitated on the curb, I felt a hand on my elbow and looked down to see the smile of my small beggar friend looking up at me. She nodded her head toward the street, indicating that she would take me across. Together, we moved slowly into the chaos as she gently prodded me forward.
When we reached the center of the crossing, I looked down at her again, and couldn't resist exclaiming, "You have the most beautiful smile."
She obviously knew little English, but must have recognized the tone, for she threw both arms and crutches around me in a big hug, while the traffic streamed by us on both sides.
Then we precarious moved on toward the sidewalk, where she pulled my face down to hers, kissed me on both cheeks, and then limped away, still smiling and waving back to me.
I had not given her a single coin. We had shared something vastly more important - a warming of hearts in friendship.
This experience remained me of something Mother Teresa once said: "If you cannot do great things, you can do small things with great love."
To look beggars in the eye and smile, thus acknowledging their existence, is a small thing. Putting your hand into another's outstretched hand and grasping it firmly for a moment is also a small thing. Learning to use a greeting in the local language is not too difficult. But these are important.
For many reasons, giving money is not the best response to an outstretched hand. Many world travelers have discovered that the greatest gift they can give is their time and friendship. Everyone needs recognition, to be seen as worthy of attention, to feel appreciated and loved.
Traveling in poorer nations, I have witnessed a variety of ways to deal with beggars. The most common response of tourists faced with the poverty-stricken is to ignore them and focus their eyes elsewhere. I have seen people push away an outstretched hand in angry annoyance. A few may hastily drop a few coins into a beseeching palm, and then execute a quick getaway in hopes that another 20 ragged pursuers won't immediately appear on the scene.
But I feel it's worthwhile to try to live by the words of English author John Cowper Powys: "No one can consider himself wholly civilized who does not look upon every individual, without a single exception, as of deep and startling interest."
I once spotted a legless man sitting by a road at the Pushkar Camel Fair in India. I was returning to my tent after recording the exotic music of the dancing men of Pushkar and was replaying the music on my tape recorder. When the man's smile lured me to join him, we began to communicate in the kind of sign language and laughter one learns while vagabonding around the world.
After mimicking the whirling skirts and sticks, I showed him how my tape recorder worked. He motioned for me to give it to him. I hesitated, but only for a moment. After examining it carefully, he began to sing a hauntingly beautiful song, indicating that he wanted me to record it and take it home as a memory of our time together.
Moments before, we had been total strangers: suddenly, we were cemented in a momentary friendship born of our common existence in this world. His eyes shone as we exchanged names. My experience with Vidur confirmed the truth of the Scandinavian proverb: "In every man there is a king. Speak to the king, and the king will come forth."
I've learned that those considered the world's most hopeless are so often rich in humanity, with hearts yearning to be affirmed - and ready to respond.
My life continues to be enriched by connecting with everyday humanity. Each time I do this, I rediscover that what I have been given is far beyond monetary value. And I reaffirm that everyone is worthy - and worth knowing.
在每个人内心都有一个国王。如果你想与他交谈,国王就会出现。
在越南胡志明市里我们旅馆外面,有一个颇似古代人的老妇人倚着拐杖,伸手在门口等着。每天,当我和她目光交汇时,我都会把我的手放在她的手里。她也会对我的微笑、握手及问候报以同样的微笑、握手及问候。
在我们参观的最后一天,我自己一个人,在旅馆对面街道上一个喧闹的角落里。自行车和摩托车在我面前猛冲直撞地行驶。有人建议我们径直穿过拥挤的车流,不要左顾右盼,以免他们撞到我们。
可是到了晚上就我一个人了,面对急流般的车流,我感到很不适应。当我在街头犹豫的时候,我感到在我胳膊肘处有一只手。我向下看了看,看到那个身材矮小的乞丐朋友微笑地望着我。她朝大街上点点头,意思是她带我穿过大街。她轻轻地推着我向前走,我们一起慢慢向人群糟杂的地方走去。
到达十字路口的中央时,我又低头看了看她,情不自禁地说了一句:“你的微笑最美丽。”
很显然,她不懂英语,但她一定可以辨认我说话的语调,于是她扔开拐杖,张开双臂拥抱我,此时,大街上的车辆都被我们涌到两边了。
这时,我们蹒跚地向人行道走去,她把我的脸拉向她的脸,在我两颊上各吻了一下,然后一瘸一拐地离开了,还不时地回头向我微笑和挥手。
我没有给她一分钱,但我们却一起体验了友谊的热情,这更有意义。
这个经历让我想起特蕾莎修女曾经说过了一句话:“如果你做不了伟大的事情,那就用伟大的爱心做点小事吧。”
用眼睛和微笑看待乞丐,认同他们的存在,这都是很小的事情;把你的手放在别人伸出的手里,紧紧地握上一会,这也是小事情;学会用当地的语言说句问候的话也不很困难;但是,这些都很有意义。
出于多种因素,对于伸出手来的乞丐来说,给他们钱并不是最好的回应。很多世界旅游者发现他们所能给予的最好礼物是他们的时间与友情。每个人都需要认同,需要关注,需要感激和关爱。
在贫穷的国家旅游,我亲眼目睹了与乞丐打交道的多种方法。面对穷人最常见的回应是不理睬,还有转移注意力。我曾看见有人非常恼火地把他们的伸出来的手推开。还有一些人急匆匆地把几个硬币丢在他们乞求的手掌里,然后就快速地离开,生怕马上又看见20多个衣服褴褛的乞丐追上来。
但是,我感觉能够按英国作家波伊斯说说的那样生活还是很有价值的,他说:“如果一个人不是对他人无一例外地怀着深厚、莫大的兴趣,那他就不能说自己是十足的文明人。”
我曾经在印度普虚卡骆驼节上见过一个没有腿的男人坐在马路边,我录完舞蹈家普虚卡的外国音乐后,就回我的帐篷,路上重放着录音机里面的音乐。我被他的微笑吸引住了,于是向他走近,我们开始用手语和笑声谈论起来。如果要在这个世界上流浪,这些都是要学会的。
模仿过旋转的裙子和鼓槌后,我告诉他录音机是如何运转的。他向我示意要我把录音机给他看看,我只是犹豫了一下便给了他。他小心检视过录音机后就开始唱歌,歌曲很优美让人难以忘怀,他向我示意把歌录下来,这样就可以带回家回忆我们在一起的欢乐时光。
不久之前,我们还完全陌生。突然间,瞬间的友谊把我们紧密联系在一起,我们的友谊诞生于我们在这个世界上的共同存在。我和Vidur的经历证实了斯堪的那维亚的一句格言:“在每个人内心都有一个国王。如果你想与他交谈,国王就会出现。”
我明白了,那些被认为是世界上最没有希望的人却经常富有人性,他们的心灵渴望被认同,也乐于做出回应。
与平凡的人保持联系,一直丰富着我的生活。每次这样做的时候,我都发现我所收获的远远不止金钱的价值。并且我再次坚信,每个人都是有价值的――值得你去了解。

Garden Moon
Reflecting in a lily pond
A face
Veined by darting carp
Wrinkled by ripples
Shadowed by reeds
Like strands of wayward hair
A face risen
From the depth of the water
庭中月
映于荷塘
一张脸
鲫鱼穿梭成脉
涟漪泛起作纹
芦苇遮影
散发缕缕
一张脸
从湖水深处浮现
