英语美文摘抄【1】
With age comes experience and with experience comes knowledge and understanding. No oneindividual is ever completed with his or her growth. For the wisest of all men has death to face. And with death imminent for all, one will still have to face fear till the very end of one'sexistence. So to take what one learns through life and to press on towards the goals set willone begin to face new, challenging, and sometimes even exciting new fears. Life will nevercomplete itself until one has completed the life he is given. Therefore it is incrediblyirresponsible to merely accept death as the imminent future, settle into a comfort zonenaught of challenge, and to merely exist. Could a better definition of waste be drawn?
It is each and everyone's responsibility to konw who he is. And it is, therefore, each andeveryone's responsibility to take what he has as genetic tools to better his life and to betterthe lives of others. For if all accepted individuality and accepted the individuality of others, then all would have the sympathy for one another.
This is harmony; the ideal nature of life by which life is then lived. To live in harmony withone another is but a simple step forward in one's thinking.
Once one has recognized one's individuality, accepted one's fears, and chosen to set goalsand move foward with the important aid of hope, will one have truly conquered living life.
英语美文摘抄【2】
About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college, I was working as an intern at myUniversity's Museum of Natural History. One day while working at the cash register in the giftshop, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.
As I looked closer at this girl, I saw that she was kind of perched on her chair. I then realizedshe had no arms or legs, just a head, neck and torso. She was wearing a little white dress withred polka dots.
As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register. I turned my headtoward the girl and gave her a wink. As I took the money from her grandparents, I looked backat the girl, who was giving me the cutest, largest smile I have ever seen.
All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile justmelted me and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about. Shetook me from a poor, unhappy college student and brought me into her world; a world ofsmiles, love and warmth.
That was ten years ago. I'm a successful business person now and whenever I get down andthink about the troubles of the world, I think about that little girl and the remarkable lessonabout life that she taught me.

I saw a lady in the subway station today.
今天，我在地铁站看到一位女士。
She was quarreling with the security guard, because she was not willing to put her handbag into the security inspector.
她正在和保安争吵着，因为她不想把她的包包放进安检机。
"It's expensive!" she shouted, "The machine's gonna scratch it!"
“这很贵的！”她喊叫到，“机器会把它刮花的”
I noticed the logo on that handbag when I passed by.
当我从她身边经过的时候，我注意到了包上的logo。
Yeah, it was of a luxury brand and looked quite new.
嗯，的确是一个奢侈品品牌，而且包包看起来很新。
And judging from the lady's reaction, I guess it's authentic.
而从这位女士的反映来看，这包应该是正品。
But if you check out the lady's other items and her behavior, it not so difficult to see that her income may not be very high.
不过，再看看她身上的其他东西，以及她的举止，不难看出她的收入应该不是特别高。
So it's highly probable that the handbag really cost her a fortune, maybe the money she saved from her every meal.
