高二勵志英語短篇 第一篇

People often wonder why historians have bothered to save millions of books, documents and records.

Why do we have a library? What are the benefits of these documents and history books? Why do we record and preserve human behavior, the negotiations of government officials and the events of the war?

We do this because sometimes the voice of experience stops us, look, listen. Sometimes, understanding the past records in the right way can help us decide what to do and what not to do. If we are to create lasting peace, we must look for its origins in human experience and human history.

From the courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspiration of youth. History Chronicles people's suffering, self-denial, devotion and the heroic deeds of past people. When we are confused, these records can help us when we really need peace.

The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those who preach war, and to those who seek peace.

In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday's record can prevent us from repeating yesterday's mistakes. Historians have discovered the great murals6 in the fragments compiled by mosaic4, which represents progress in humanity.

高二勵志英語短篇 第二篇

I was living in Chicago and going through what was a particularly cold winter both in my personal life and the outside temperature. One evening I was walking home from a bar where I had been drinking alone, feeling sorry for myself, when I saw a homeless man standing over an exhaust grate in front of a department store. He was wearing a filthy sport coat and approaching everyone who passed by for money.

I was too immersed in my own troubles to deal with him so I crossed the street. As I went by, I looked over and saw a businessman come out of the store and pull a ski parka out of a bag and hand it to the homeless man. For a moment both the man and I were frozen in time as the businessman turned and walked away. Then the man looked across the street at me. He shook his head slowly and I knew he was crying.

It was the last time I have ever been able to disappear into my own sorrow.

高二勵志英語短篇 第四篇

I feel very presumptuous and uncomfortable about trying to explain out loud the things Ibelieve in. But I do think that all human problems are in some way related to each other, soperhaps if people compare their experiences they may discover something in common in huntingthe answers.

I am a very fortunate man for I lead a full and what is for me a happy life. I say this eventhough I happen to have had, in the course of it, a couple of severe personal blows.

My first wife collapsed and died one day while she and I were ice skating, after eighteen years ofa most happy existence together. My only son, a sergeant in the army combat engineers, waskilled in Italy in the last war. Nevertheless, these tragedies did not throw me completely and Ihave been able to fill my life anew with happiness.

I do not mean to sound calloused. Those blows hurt me deeply. I guess that two basicallyimportant things helped me most to recover. One is the fact that I have come to see life as agamble. The other is a belief in what some people call the hereafter. I try to live fully so thatwhen and if my luck changes there will be little room for regret or recrimination over time lost ormisspent. My belief in the hereafter is wrapped in the intangible but stubborn thoughts of alayman. Very likely I would get lost in trying to describe or defend, by cold logic, my belief inGod but nobody could argue me out of it.

I have come to believe that I owe life as much as it owes me, and I suppose that explains thisfine satisfaction I get out of endeavoring to do a job to the best of what ability I have, and outof helping somebody else.

As a kid I used to ride a rake in the hayfields. I got a tremendous kick out of trying to sweepevery field clean as a whistle. Here I made a surprising and happy discovery: that there couldbe actual enjoyment in the exercise of thoroughness and responsibility, and that duty didn’thave to be a drudge.

I don’t know exactly why, but I like to do things for other people. Not only , work on a hospital board, and various church organizations but also the mostinconsequential things that might hardly seem worth the time. My office happens to be onIndependence Square and now and then I have occasion to direct a tourist to the Liberty Bell orfill him in on a little of the history of Philadelphia. The tourist doesn’t seem to mind and it makesme feel good. I’m afraid I’m not very profound. I have tried to comprehend why somethingso simple and so sound as the Golden Rule is so often forgotten or held in disrepute. I canonly say—and I say this quite selfishly—that I have found it a good investment. It has paid me avery high return, undoubtedly more than I deserve.

我想，若是大聲解釋我的信仰，不僅會給人一種自大的感覺，也會使我感到不安。但是我認為，從某種程度上來說，人類所有的問題都是息息相關(guān)的。因此，倘若人們比較一下他們的經(jīng)歷，也許就能在尋找答案的過程中發(fā)現(xiàn)某些共同之處。

我是一個幸運的人，因為我的生活充實而幸福。不管怎樣，我依然會這么說，即使曾經(jīng)的多次不幸給我?guī)砹顺林氐拇驌簟Ｎ遗c第一個妻子共同度過了18年幸福的婚姻生活，然而在我們?nèi)セ哪翘欤蝗坏瓜拢鍪秩隋尽Ｎ椅ㄒ坏膬鹤邮且幻け娛浚?zhàn)期間，在意大利陣亡。然而，我并沒有被這些不幸徹底打倒，而是再次讓我的生活充滿幸福。

我并不是想讓大家覺得我冷酷無情。這些不幸確實對我造成了很大的傷害。我想我之所以能夠重新振作起來，其中有兩個重要的原因：一是我認為生活其實就是一場賭博，二是我對人們所說的來世深信不疑。為了在晦運時，不至于因虛度時光而后悔或自責，我努力讓自己充實地生活。作為一個普通信徒，無形而堅定的思想正是我信仰來世的來源。我信仰上帝，也許我難以用冷冰冰的邏輯來描述這個信仰或為它辯護，但誰也無法說服我放棄它。

我相信，我對生活付出多少，就會得到多少。因此，我認為，我最大的滿足正是來源于盡自己最大的努力去做一份工作或是幫助別人。

孩提時，我常會在干草地上開耙草機。在將每片草地耙干凈的過程中，我總會獲得極大的成就感，并驚奇地發(fā)現(xiàn)：盡心而盡責地完成一件事會為你帶來真正的快樂，而盡責也并不一定是做苦工。

我很喜歡為人服務。我不僅為家庭負責，在一家醫(yī)院的理事會及各種教會組織中工作，我還會去做一些看似浪費時間的最無關(guān)緊要的瑣事。我的辦公室正好在獨立廣場，因此我偶爾會為去獨立鐘的游客帶路，一路上給他講一些費城的歷史。雖然游客并不在乎這些，但我卻樂此不疲。我自己并非知識淵博之人。我常常想弄明白，像黃金定律那樣簡單而合理的箴言為何總被人們遺忘或不屑一顧。我只能說，也自私地說，我發(fā)現(xiàn)為人服務是一項最成功的投資。毫無疑問，它給予我的回報遠遠高于我的應得。

高二勵志英語短篇 第五篇

I was not delivered unto this world in defeat, nor does failure course in my veins. I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd. I am a lion and I refuse to talk, to walk, to sleep with the sheep. I will hear not those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious. Let them join the sheep. The slaughterhouse of failure is not my destiny.

I will never consider defeat and I will remove from my vocabulary such words and phrases as quit, cannot, unable, impossible, out of the question, improbable, failure, unworkable, hopeless, and retreat; for they are the words of fools. I will avoid despair but if this disease of the mind should infect me then I will work on in despair. I will toil and I will endure. I will ignore the obstacles at my feet and keep mine eyes on the goals above my head, for I know that where dry desert ends, green grass grows.

I will remember the ancient law of averages and I will bend it to my good. I will persist with knowledge that each failure to sell will increase my chance for success at the next attempt. Each nay I hear will bring me closer to the sound of yea. Each frown I meet only prepares me for the smile to come. Each misfortune I encounter will carry in it the seed of tomorrow's good luck. I must have the night to appreciate the day. I must fail often to succeed only once.

Can be seen from the above parents godson method and the truth, why don't we parents can go to the school to visit! Parents don't to hurt their children's self-esteem, every child has his great ideal, but needs to be long care at home, discover, cultivate, tolerance to achieve growth.

高二勵志英語短篇 第七篇

When someone looks into your eyes they should see something alive within you. Having a dream is like owning a lighthouse1 which directs you on your journey.

At every turn we come across its mystery. At each new level we become more of the person we were meant to become. In lonely times, when we pass through a storm of disappointment, we find our faith is unshaken, our strength still strong.

Believe in your faith. Set the vision before your eyes. Write down your most sincere dreams and when the opportunity comes, step into your dream. It may take one season or more, but the result is the same. Make big dreams and then go out and make them realities. The highest hopes of the dreamer are revealed with every step taken in their journey to the impossible. For a season we must protect the dream so that it can grow quietly on the inside. But if we tenderly care for our deepest expectations, slowly but surely the dream will become new life.

Dreaming is an act of faith. The light of your expectations will cast off the shadows of a disbelieving world. God has given us the dreamer as a gift to light an unbelieving world.

Find your treasure within and cherish it. Tomorrow is waiting for you to take the first step.

In the world, I am sure that no one dare say he hasn't met any trouble all his life. So we must face failure. In fact, failure is not fearful, but important thing is how to face it correctly. Facing failure, people will never take their fate lying will try their best to work harder and harder until at last they succeed.

Not being courageous to face setbacks, people have no chance to enjoy the pleasure of success. So they have nothing to do but feel sad and empty all day and all night.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十一篇

A young friend of mine asked me in a letter, xxxWhat kind of man should I be?xxx My answer was, xxxBe a fighter.xxx

Another friend of mine inquired, xxxHow should I live my life?xxx Again my answer was, xxxBe a fighter.xxx

The author of In Praise of the Fighter says:

Riding on the ceaseless rushing torrent of life, I should pursue and overtake it so as to create an even greater and deeper torrent of my own.

If I were a lamp, it would be my duty to light up thick darkness. If I were the sea tide, I would marshal rolling waves to cleanse the beach of all accumulated filth.

This quotation reflects aptly the state of mind of a lighter.

Fighters are badly needed in our time. But such fighters do not necessarily go to the battle- field gun in hand. Their weapons are not necessarily bullets. Their weapons may be knowledge, faith and strong will. They can bring the enemy sure death without drawing his blood.

A fighter is always in pursuit of light. Instead of basking in the sunshine under a clear sky, he holds a burning torch in the darkness of night to illuminate people's way so that they can continue their journey till they see the dawn of a new day. It is the task of a fighter to dispel darkness. Instead of shirking darkness, he braves it and fights the hidden demons and monsters therein. He is determined to wipe them out and win light. He knows no compromise. He will keep on fighting until he wins light.

A fighter is perennially young. He is never irresolute or inactive. He plunges deep into teeming crowds in search of such vermin as flies and venomous mosquitoes. He will fight them relentlessly and refuse to coexist with them under the same sky. To him, life means nothing but continuous fighting. He either survives by winning light, or perishes with his body covered all over with cuts and bruises. In the course of the struggle, it is the xxxfuturexxx that serves as the beacon light to him; the xxxfuturexxx gives people hope and inspiration. He will never lose his youthful vigour.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十二篇

Keeping a Dream is an attitude toward life. With dreams, we can overcome different kinds of difficulties in life.

I usually get discouraged easily when I fail in an exam. My head teacher told me xxxnothing is difficult if you don't lose heart.xxx. I followed his advice and began to work harder. It was his encouragement that pulled me through. As long as I keep trying, obstacles can become bridges to success.

Besides, it's important for us to protect our dream. Dreams always lead to happiness, and success. Only when we are in pursuit of a dream can we live in a constructive way, can we satisfy our parents and shoulder the future responsibility.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十三篇

I recently started a new job, in a small office, where four of us share a fridge. In that fridge is a Brita water filter pitcher. One of my coworkers plained the water tasted xxxdirtyxxx. It went on for a few days, and she was stunned I could drink the water without any trouble. I started to doubt my taste buds, but the water really tasted fine.

Finally, she figured out the problem was actually her cup. She simply forgot to clean it, and after awhile started to affect the water inside it. She cleaned her cup, and drank the water with no problem.

I can't help but think about the world we live in. Too often we quickly blame other people, other things, anything else but ourselves. xxxYou're racistxxx. xxxYou're intolerantxxx. xxxYou're the problemxxx. The world isn't perfect, I know, but I think we should take a step back sometimes and ask ourselves some tough questions.

Can I be better? Is my heart really pure? Can I help this situation with kindness?

I want to tell you this; please clean your cup. Because when you do, the water will taste much better. I promise you this.

One day, if someone gets up on the right side of the bed and calls me andsays:’ You are the greatest person on earth. You are doing a great job and Iwant you to know I am honored to call you a friend.” I know he is sincere. Howdoes it make me fell? Great. But the next day, he gets up on thewrong side side of the bed, picks up the phone and says:” You rascal, you cheat,you crook! You are biggest fraud in town.” How does it make me feel?Terrible.

一天，如果某人情緒甚佳，并打電話給我說：“你是世界上最偉大的人。你做得非常好，我想讓你知道把你稱作朋友是我的榮幸。”我知道他是誠心的。聽了這話我會有何感受?棒極了。然而第二天，他情緒不佳，拿起電話給我說：“你這惡棍，你這騙子，你這個不誠實的人!你是鎮(zhèn)上最大的騙子。”我又有何感受?非常糟糕。

So the first day when he says, “You are the greatest guy,” I feel great andthe next day when he says, “you rascal,” I feel terrible. Who is controlling mylife? Obviously, he is, Is that the way I want to through life? Not at all. Thatis being externally driven.

第一天，他說：“你是最棒的人”時，我感覺良好。而第二天，當他說：”你是惡棍”時我感覺糟糕。誰在操縱我的生活?很明顯是他。難道這就是我的生活方式嗎?決不是，這是外因驅(qū)動。

I want to be internally driven. When he calls me and says I am the greatestguy it is good to hear those words. But even if he doesn’t say those words, inmy own estimation, I am still a god human being. And the next day when he ripsme apart, he can’t really, because in my own estimation. I am stilla good human being. When people make statements like, “You make me angry, ” thefocus of control is external. But if I say I am angry or I choose to be angry,the focus of control is internal.

我要主動的生活。當他打電話給我說我是最棒的人時，接受這些話語是有益的，但即使他并不是這么說，在我的自我評價中我依然是個好人。而第二天，當他想將我的自尊心撕碎時，他也并不能真正做到，因為在我的自我評價中我依舊是個好人。當人們說：“你使我憤怒“時，操縱點在外界。而如果我說我生氣了，或者我要選擇生氣，那么操縱點就是內(nèi)在的。

Some people in the fierce competition of the rough waves swept away, has never recovered. Some people are against the tuyere, set foot on top, on the shore, they succeeded. Because they have much a stick to it. Forefront for them is not a stumbling block, but padding their own foundation.

Born easy, live easy, life is not easy. Life is a process of life. No wind, no rain? It is because of the baptism of wind and rain to see the colorful rainbow; With the pain of failure will taste the joy of success. Turgenev in the rudin, said: xxxalthough our life short and small, but great everything is caused by the hand of the people; a life, realize the lofty mission, that is their supreme happiness in life.xxx We are to create this society, inevitably some injury, through the tears.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十七篇

Self-confidence, as is approved by research and practice, has an amazingly powerful influence on the output of people’s activities. Patients who believe that they’ll recover soon generally cures faster than those who think they won’t. Students with optimistic characters usually provide better performance, even if they work the same hard as others. Although someone may regard such conclusion as superstitious, it does take place everyday and everywhere. Neural scientists have discovered that, when a man feels confident, his brain will secrete some kinds of hormone that boost brain activity and improve the efficiency of his immune system. In contrast, a melancholic brain is suppressed by other chemicals and cannot fully exhibit its potential.

To help building up self-confidence, you can take the following two steps. First, identify your merits and value them. If you constantly compare your weakness to others’ advantages, you’d only gain frustration rather than confidence. Second, track every little progress you’ve made and review them frequently. You may not possibly become perfectly successful in one day, but if only you can see yourself growing gradually, surely you’re on the right way. There’re also other methods making you more confident that depend on yourself to find out, and they’re all necessary elements to make you more competitive in your area.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十八篇

Hello, everyone ! My name is I’m from Class 1, I’m very happy to stand here to give you my free-talk. Today my topic is “To Be A Good Failure”.

Ibelieve everyone has experienced a lot . We have done good things and also bad things. When we do the bad things, we should not feel sad. We should learn from failure ,learn from every mistake and learn how to be a good loser. That’s what I'll be talking about today. That's our lesson to learn. Let me tell you why.

First, losing is a part of life. It is unavoidable. It is something we all must face. Everybody loses sometimes. Every great person knows this truth. So don't be ashamed of losing. Losing doesn't mean you're a loser.

Second, don’t escape from it, just accept it. Losing is beneficial and can be helpful to you. We just view it as a learning experience. Losing is a chance to learn. You can learn how to try again and improve.

Third, practice makes perfect. Create challenges for yourself. Never be afraid of failure. Lose as much as you can. Losing only makes you better. That is a great secret of success.

In conclusion, remember these. You will be a good loser. It might be painful at first. But it will get easier as you go along. You'll be respected and admired. You'll feel so achievement to learn so much. You are not the real failure ,you will be a winner in future.

高二勵志英語短篇 第十九篇

Today is an excellent day for small improvements. Whatever is working for you, find a way to improve it just a little. There’s no need to make a huge change, just a small one, something you can do right now.

If you called just one additional customer each day, over the course of the next month you would talk to about 20 new people. If you learned just one more new word each day, in the next year you would increase your vocabulary by more than 300 words.

Small improvements can add up over time into big accomplishments. Look around you. Consider the work you do each day. Think about how you could do it just a little bit better.

In a marathon race, each step the winner takes is just a little bit longer and a little bit faster than each stride taken by the 100th place finisher. Yet over the course of the race, that small difference adds up in a big way.

Do just a little bit more today, and tomorrow too, and each day after that. Anyone can make just a small improvement, and that can make a big, big difference.

今天就是你可以做改進的極好的一天。無論你在做什么,找一個方法去做一點點的改進。不用做太大的改變,只要一點點——你現(xiàn)在可以做到的一點點。

如果你每天多給一個顧客打電話的話,一個月下來你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你又多認識了差不多二十個人。如果每天多學會一個新詞,過一年,你的詞匯量將會增加300多個。

小小的改進能夠逐步積累成大的成就。觀察你的周圍。思考你每天所做的工作。英語短文想一下你怎么能做得更好一點。

在馬拉松比賽中,冠軍的每一步都只比第一百名的選手的步伐大一點點、快一點點。英語短文但是在比賽過程中,那些小小的不同積累成了巨大的區(qū)別。

今天、明天、今后的每一天盡力做更多一點點。任何人都能做一點小小的改進,但那小小的改進將會起到非常大、非常大的作用。

高二勵志英語短篇 第二十一篇

Don’t allow your troubles to get the best of you. Instead, allow those troubles to make the best of you.

Don’t tire yourself out fighting against the challenges. Instead, find new energy by embracing1 those challenges and working through them to create real value.

Always remind yourself that discour-agement is nothing more than a response you’ve chosen. When you find that you’ve chosen to let it be, you can just as surely choose to let it go.

Replace discouragement with determin-ation. It is your life’s energy, and you can point it in whatever direction you choose. Your most powerful response is not based only on what has already happened. Your most powerful response also takes into account what you wish to make happen next.

Look forward, and envision in great detail the future you desire. Then gather all your energy, and step forward to make it be.

Today is an excellent day for small improvements. Whatever is working for you, find a way to improve it just a little. There’s no need to make a huge change, just a small one, something you can do right now.

If you called just one additional customer each day, over the course of the next month you would talk to about 20 new people. If you learned just one more new word each day, in the next year you would increase your vocabulary by more than 300 words.

Small improvements can add up over time into big accomplishments. Look around you. Consider the work you do each day. Think about how you could do it just a little bit better.

In a marathon race, each step the winner takes is just a little bit longer and a little bit faster than each stride taken by the 100th place finisher. Yet over the course of the race, that small difference adds up in a big way.

Do just a little bit more today, and tomorrow too, and each day after that. Anyone can make just a small improvement, and that can make a big, big difference.

高二勵志英語短篇 第二十四篇

Some people go through life standing at the excuse counter.

They say they’d like to do this or that, but then they offer all the excuses in the world for why they can’t do whatever it is. No matter what the excuses are, the only thing that is usually limiting them is their own self-perception.

If I’ve learned anything, I’ve learned that a person —any person —may do anything they set their mind on doing. The things you need are willingness to work for what you want, patience to learn what you need to know and, most important of all, belief in yourself. You only need a seed, and then your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward.

If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you’re not smart enough, then take the time to learn what you need to know, and then your self-perception will change.

If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you never finish anything you start, then go and finish something and change your self- perception.

If your self-perception is that you’re too lazy, too busy, too unworthy, too unfocused, too depressed, or too dependent on others to accomplish great things, then you’re right. You are that because you believe you are, but in fact, you can change that! Life is change, and the past doesn’t equal the future. Your reality today is the result of your past beliefs and actions. Change your beliefs and actions, and you will change your future. Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right. You are what you think.

Think about that the next time you need an excuse.

There is actually a pie in the sky. It was made especially for you. It is your favorite flavor. You can eat as much of it as you want. It is all yours and you don’t have to share it with anyone.

Now, all you have to do to get your pie is build a set of stairs, climb up your stairs, and reach out your hand to take it.

First, you must figure out what the design of your stairs will be. If you don’t know, find a person who has managed to build a set of stairs to reach his pie, and find out what needs to be done.

Next, you will need to prepare for your stairs. You need to buy the wood and the tools. You might need to replace some broken tools.

Finally, and this is the hardest step, you need to focus your mind on your work. The actual work requires constructing the stairs. You may find that you’ve worked really hard for days, weeks or even months, and then suddenly find that your stairs are not going to line up with your pie. So you need to make sure that you still have money to buy new materials and rebuild your stairs in the right direction.

In China, there is no doubt that English is very important, because it has been the indispensable subject for students to learn since they go to school.

As our economy develops so fast and our country plays the more and more important role in the world, a lot of foreigners have started to learn mandarin. There is even a big TV show for foreigners to compete to be the one who speaks mandarin best. I have watched the show, I am so impressed that the foreigners can speak mandarin so well, for mandarin is such difficult to learn. My foreign teachers told me that so many people in their countries wanted to know more about China and they were interested in our culture.

The popularity of mandarin shows that our country has become stronger. We should be proud of that.

It is not easy to think positive thoughts when the world around you appears to be so negative. In fact, it can be as difficult as anything you’ve ever done. However, it is absolutely possible to fill your mind with positive thoughts no matter what the environment is. Doing so makes you powerful like nothing else can.

To think positively is to alignyourselfwith1 the truth that you’re immersed2 in limitless, growing abundance. To think positively is to pleasantly accept that your life is full of meaningful and unique achievements.

Instead of placing a judgement on your situation, apply your most positive purposes to that situation. Instead of seeing the world as negative, see yourself as a powerful agent of the positive possibilities.

If you find yourself giving in to negativity, you are selling yourself short. The moment you feel the slightest pain of a negative thought, stop and remind yourself how powerful you are. Do the intentional work of keeping your thoughts positive. Because whatever you always think is where your life will surely and steadily go.

高二勵志英語短篇 第三十二篇

An old woman having lost the use of her eyes, called in a physician to heal them, and made this bargain with him in the presence of witnesses:

That if he should cure her blindness, he should receive from her a sum of money; but if her infirmity remained, she should give him nothing.

This agreement being made, the physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little.

And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment.

The old woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing.

The physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the judge.

The old woman, standing up in the court, argued: xxxthis man here speaks the truth in what he says; for i did promise to give him a sum of money if i should recover my sight:

But if i continued blind, i was to give him nothing.

Now he declares that I am healed. I, on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: But now, though he swears i am cured of my blindness, i am not able to see a single thing in it.xxx

To conquer our fears, we must go past them.

To fear is natural; to go past them is heroic. Fear is a normal part of life, symbolizing that there are new, extraordinary things to e across and face. To be able to see these things before they happen is a sign of wisdom. Fear is nothing out of the ordinary. To admit that we are fearing is to prove that we value our life.

And men should pay attention to the call of fears. To truly be a leader or someone who is heroic and brave, we should focus on getting past these fears. And it is frightful for people to go through life ignoring fears, because they may often forget their heart and step into life without responsibility.

To be born is to live. To live is to fear. To fear is to be challenged. To accept our fears is to be mature. It needs bravery, maturity and vitality to face our fears, accept the challenges and hope for the best.

If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view.

By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things, you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance.

Your life can be enhanced, and your happiness enriched, when you choose to change your perspective. Don’t leave your future to chance, or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence, and work through problems rather than avoid them. Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations, but the ability to deal with whatever comes your way.

Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your “worry hours” into “productive hours”. Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you addopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world.

We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.

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.

I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated 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 reminder of our lives.

The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.

Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our businesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.

Extend the Miracle

My skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited potential. Only a small portion of my brain do I employ; only a paltry amount of my muscles do I flex. A hundredfold or more can I increase my accomplishments of yesterday and this I will do, beginning today.

Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments nor will I indulge, anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?

And I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.

I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think and now I know a great secret of life for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements, and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise. I will no longer be fooled by the garments they wear for mine eyes are open. I will look beyond the cloth and I will not be deceived.

我的技藝，我的頭腦，我的心靈，我的身體，若不善加利用，都將隨著時間的流逝而遲鈍，腐朽，甚至死亡。我的潛力無窮無盡，腦力、體能稍加開發(fā)，就能超過以往的任何成就。從今天開始。我就要開發(fā)潛力。

我不再因昨日的成績沾沾自喜，不再為微不足道的成績目吹自擂。我能做的比已經(jīng)完成的更好。我的出生并非最后一樣奇跡，為什么自己不能再創(chuàng)奇跡呢？

我不是隨意來到這個世上的。我生來應為高山。而非草芥。從今往后，我要竭盡全力成為群峰之巔。將我的潛能發(fā)揮到最大限度。

我有雙眼，可以觀察；我有頭腦，可以思考。現(xiàn)在我已洞悉了一個人生中偉大的奧秘。我發(fā)現(xiàn)，一切問題、沮喪、悲傷，都是喬裝打扮的機遇之神。我不再被他們的外表所蒙騙，我已睜開雙眼，看破了他們的偽裝。

Enjoy that uniquenesss1. You do not have to pretend in order to seem more like someone else. You do not have to lie to hide the parts of you that are not like what you see in anyone else.

You were meant to be different. Nowhere, in all of history, will the same things be going on in anyone’s mind, soul and spirit as are going on in yours right now.

If you did not exist, there would be a hole in creation, a gap2 in history, and something missing from the plan for humankind. Treasure your uniqueness. It is a gift given only to you. Enjoy it and share it!

No one can reach out to others in the same way that you can. No one can speak your words. No one can convey your meanings. No one can comfort others with your kind of comfort. No one can bring your kind of understanding to another person. No one can be cheerful and light-hearted3 and joyous4 in your way. No one can smile your smile. No one else can bring the whole unique impact of you to another human being.

Share your uniqueness. Let it flow out freely among your family and friends, and the people you meet in the rush and clutter of living, wherever you are. That gift of yourself was given to you to enjoy and share. Give yourself away!

See it! Receive it!

Let it inform you, move you and inspire you!

You are unique!

Power of Self Talk

Life is like a big swing, dangling between the depths of happiness and sadness. As soon as we descend down the slope of sadness, we accelerate over the ever-feel-good acclivity of happiness. At times of distress, when we are down we slip over an abyss of emotional trauma and frustrations. One who can rise above the occasion, is the architect of many wins over sorrows.

To come above tougher times you have to pep yourself up, when you are feeling low, lost and confused. This can be done effectively by self-talk. Self-talk is a way of talking to oneself. It can be effectively used for soul searching. When talking to ourselves, we hardly lie as our conscience controls our speech. Self talk is efficient because when we are vocal about our thoughts, it makes a larger impact on our mind.

Our brain then receives the same message from the mind as well as the ears. This repetition pep talks and thoughts fine tunes the performance of brain.

Self-talk is a software, which when properly loaded onto our mind directs ourselves for better results and a healthy mind. Actually many times in our life, we find others advising us to do better in studies, sports, life etc. We usually get bugged by these people and blank our ears out of their constructive suggestions. It is because it doesn't come from within us. And when something comes from within you, you always try your best to do justice to it. Self-talk can thus ameliorate our one of us has some good points and some bad ones.

Though we hardly admit in pubic, we know in our mind that we could do better in some areas of our personal landscape. This get better attitude can be converted into a practical reality using self-talk.

If you are an introvert and you want to be the gregarious person like you friend next door, all you need to do is talk to yourself. Tell yourself with all the sincerity and emotions that xxxI can be like him. I am a natural born speaker. I do like people and speaking comes naturally to me. I just have to be ready to listen and speakxxx. Suppose you love a person and want to tell him or her, then just say to yourselves xxxI love her with all my heart. She is the only one and I know it. If I don't let her know, it would be grave injustice on my part.

Every person loves to be loved. Even she willxxx. These are just some examples I have explained. It's up to you to program your own mantra. If you are highly optimistic to do better, there is no better motivator than self-talk. So guys start talking.

生活像一具大秋千，總在開心和憂愁間搖擺。每當我們陷入憂愁的低谷時，我們以開始沖向開心的谷頂。在深陷悲痛，跌入感情創(chuàng)傷和絕望的深淵的時候，能夠從中走出來的，就是戰(zhàn)勝悲傷的贏家。

如果你是內(nèi)向型的，你想如你隔壁的朋友那樣出眾，你所要做的就是和自己交談。充滿誠摯和感情地告訴自己“我可以像他一樣，我是個天生的演說家。我確實喜歡人們，和人交談很自然。我只要準備好傾聽和談話就是了。” 假設你愛一個人，你想告訴他或她，那么就對自己說“我全心全意地愛她，我知道她是我的唯一。如果我不告訴她，這對自己很不公平。每個人都喜歡他人所愛的。她也一樣。” 這些只是我用來解釋的例子，怎么說取決于你自己。

如果你非常樂觀地想做得更好，自我交談就是最好的辦法。所以，開始交談吧！

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十一篇

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, to teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be - your roommate, neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger who, when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.

有時，一些人一闖入你的生活你便知道他們本就想這么做，其中有著一定的目的——或給你一個教訓，或幫助你明白你是誰或你要成為誰。你永遠也不知道這些人會是誰，是你的舍友、鄰居、教授、久違的朋友、愛人，甚或是一個完全的陌生人。當你與他們四目相對，你便知道他們會以某種深遠的方式影響你的生活。

And sometimes things happen to you and at the time they may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles, you would have never realized your potential, strength, will power or heart. Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity - all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.

有時，一些事情發(fā)生了，它們看上去是那么可怕、痛苦和不公;但細想一下你就會明白，如果沒有去努力克服這些難題，你將永遠也不會知道自己的潛能、力量、意志力和內(nèi)心。任何事情的發(fā)生都是有原因的，沒有一件事是偶然發(fā)生的或是因了某種好運或厄運發(fā)生的。疾病、傷害、愛、真正的偉大的消逝和完全的愚蠢――所有這一切的發(fā)生都是對你的精神極限的考驗。不管這考驗是一些事件、疾病或是某種關(guān)系，沒有了它們，生活都將只剩下陽光大道，安穩(wěn)、舒適，但卻單調(diào)、沒有意義，不會通往任何地方。

The people you meet who affect your life and the successes and downfalls you experience - they are the ones who create who you are. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. Those lessons are the hardest and probably the most important ones.

你遇到的那些影響你的生活的人和你所經(jīng)歷的成功或失敗，都會讓你看清自己。即使是不好的經(jīng)歷，也能讓你從中得到教訓。這些教訓是最嚴酷的，但也可能是最重要的。

If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart to. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

如果有人傷害了你、背叛了你、或讓你心碎，原諒他們吧，因為他們幫助你懂得了什么是信任，也讓你明白了對那些你敞開心扉交往的人保持謹慎的重要性。如果有人愛你，那么也無條件地愛他們吧，不光因為他們愛你，也因為他們教會了你如何去愛，如何打開心扉、張開眼睛去感受那些沒有他們你便不能看到或感受到的世間的種種。

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

讓每一天都過得有意義吧。享受生命中的每一刻，盡你所能從中汲取，因為以后你可能沒有機會再有同樣經(jīng)歷。

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either. You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

你的頭，因為你有權(quán)利這樣做。相信自己，告訴自己你很了不起，因為如果連你自己都不相信自己，別人又怎能相信你?你能夠按自己的意愿生活。去創(chuàng)造出自己的生活，然后走出來享受生活吧。

xxxPeople are like tea bags - you have to put them in hot water before you know how strong they are.xxx

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十二篇

God gives us the same precious life, but give us different life attitudes and strange life forms. High overhead, someone domination; Someone beneath humble, yes. Some clever perspicacity, fame; Someone intelligent, life doing nothing. The world because of the variety show is rich, because different society and with the color.

Maybe your mind isn't agile, talent is inferior to others; Maybe your clothes, simple than others luxurious riches and honor; Maybe you are born in poverty, compared with others is famous for the door... If you're just being a member of the ordinary, in everything that makes you almost did not dare to face, then you are in the strong tall in the shadow of pain, since unwilling to mediocrity, or out of the darkness, looking for a piece of sunshine for yourself? Pain is the shadow of the pessimist, kind-hearted optimists will deliberately turned, look for to belong to own a piece of bright sunshine. As Chekhov said, the dog will shout loudly!

Our life is very ordinary, ordinary like a stone, not smooth on the surface of the mei-yu, cannot reflect the crystal brilliant charming luster. But we should not also can't so deny yourself, because we all have god to mankind, have innate tenacity and penetrate into the bone marrow of tough, how can because the mei-yu, the existence of the crystal and feel inferior? We must live for themselves. Live out their own color, not because the light of others masked humbled himself.

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十三篇

A man has two dogs: a hound and a housedog. He trains the hound to help him hurt and teaches the housedog to watch the house.

When he returns home after a day’s hunt, he always gives the housedog some meat. The hound feels very angry. He says unhappily to the housedog, “I work very hard outside, but you do nothing and share my food.”

“Don’t blame me, my friend. You should blame the master. He doesn’t teach me to hurt, but to share other’s food,” the housedog answers.

Don’t blame children for the mistakes of their parents.

有一個人養(yǎng)了兩條狗：一條是獵犬，一條是看家狗。他訓練獵狗幫他打獵，教看家狗守家。

當獵人打了一天獵回家后，總要分給看家狗一些肉，獵狗對此很生氣。它不高興地對看家狗說道：“我在外邊追捕獵物十分辛苦，而你在家什么都不做，但你卻分享我的食物。”

看家狗回答道：“不要責怪我，我的朋友。你應該去責備主人。他不教我打獵，卻只教我分享別人的食物。”

不要因為父母的錯誤而去責備孩子。

Never put up your workinguniforms,no matter how well you like that Armani suit. It is no work.

Take a bath before dating. And if you like, spray a little perfume, butunless you're sure that he or she likes the smell,don't use ones that are toostrong.

Watch your manner. You're no prince of the Scotland nor Cinderella in thelegend. Proper manners will ensure a lasting relationship while bad ones scareaway your sweetheart. And do make sure you do not boast about your fortune, for,not everyone are green addicts. And your way of smiling, or your greatestoath,should neither be xxxcoyxxx nor xxxby St. Loy!xxx after the nun in Chaucer.

Be a little sensitive than merely innocent. Do make sure you do not intrudehis or her privacy on the first date. For there maybe something deeply concealedwithin the inner core of every heart, of which the owner doesn't share oftenwith anyone but his intimacy.

Finally, wish you good luck. May you get your hearts combined and start anew journey in the miracle of life and love. Stay tuned till a borderline isreached, and keep on through out the whole way.

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十五篇

At first, a person's existence should be like a shopping mall along the river bank, narrowly surrounded by the river bank, rushing passionately to the boulders and watells. Gradually, the river widened, the river bank receded, and the current became more calm. Finally, without any visible cracks, they merged into the sea and lost their existence painlessly.

中文翻譯：

一個人的存在，一開始應該像一個河邊的購物中心，狹窄地圍在河岸里，熱情地沖向巨石和瀑布，漸漸地，河流變寬了，河岸退去了，水流更平靜了，最后，它們在沒有任何可見的裂縫的情況下，匯入了大海，毫無痛苦地失去了他們的存在。

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十六篇

We all come to the world, but why do some of us make great achievements known forever and why are they remembered forever even though they leave the world? And why do some leave the world without anything valuable to his generation and the people? Every one of us will hope to have a significant and valuable life. But what kind of life is both significant and valuable? Answers to the questions are …… xxxIf you cherish your value of your own life, you will create something valuable for the world.xxx Johann Goth said. xxxThe life value should be judged from his contribution rather than his profession.xxx Einstein said. Lei Feng, a communist soldier, said, xxxone lives to make others a more beautiful life.xxx

As we all know, Marx is an outstanding and great man. He founded his brilliant and scientific theory of communism. The theory guides the ways for the human being's liberation. Marx said, xxxIf we can elect one suitable profession, we won't be demoralized with its pressure, because we make sacrifice for human beings. Only by this way will we not be addicted to the joy of narrow-minded and individualism. Our happiness belongs to thousands upon thousands of people. I see, although it may be unknown, our cause will never be forgot forever. Even when we depart to God, the kind people will tear down upon our ashes.xxx When he said these words, he was only 17 years old. He meant his word with his deeds in his late lifetime period. After his death, on his 100-birthday anniversary, the proletarian and the revolutionary people of the whole world still cherish the memory of Marx and mourn him respectively.

It is his distinguishingable contribution to the mankind that his life is that significant. It is his great devotion to the human being that his life value is beyond measure. We also know that Lu Xun is a man of great. Without his nobility xxxFierce-browed, I wooly defy a thousand point fingers, head bowed like a willing ox I serve the childrenxxx, and without his spirit of his loyalty and devotion to the last for the bright future of the Chinese people, his life would not have been so significant and so great. Actually, didn't those regarded as essence of human who live forever in the hearts of people make great contributions to the cause of the people? Wouldn't the people remember those whose great achievements for human are recorded in history? We know for certain that not every of us will be a second Marx or Lu Xun. However, a person of noble aspirations will do solid work. Struggle

continuously and effortless. He will try to make his greatest contribution in his shortest time. He will try what he can to bring benefit to the people in his lifetime. We'd say it is impossible for one to live alone if he isolates society and people. If he hopes to make a benefit life, he will bring benefit and make contribution to people. As a socialist youth, he will devote his life to the cause of communism in order to make a benefit life. Moreover, we say that a value of life will be only in direct proportion to achievement and contribution he makes to our society. In our real life, we can see many revolutionary martyrs die young for the people. Don't you think they cherish the life? Yes. They do. They are sentimentally attached to life; they are full of hope and desire. But they confront the death bravely and resolutely in order to make many more people live. Their brilliant status will be living in the hearts of people. They die glorious and great.

The life of those who die busy about his lifetime without any achievements can not be compared with their life. In our real life, we have many cases like those. Life is endless and tackling key problems will be continuous. Let's take these as examples. Mr. Jing Zhuying worked for the Chinese science causes to the last of his life. Mr. Zhang Hua sacrificed his own young life for the sake of others, which set a good example of the communist. Mr. An Ke died for fulfillment for the duty as a citizen. Ms Zhang Haiti, compared to be Paul of our time, worked very hard and faced frustrations of her life, though she was disabled. She still continues to live on bravely.

All these are the strong of their life. Their value of life is precious. My fellow students, don't you say what a beautiful life they have? Beethoven once said; xxxI must learn to control my life which will never make me give myself up. Oh, If only I can live more than thousands times!xxx Paul Cocking also had a golden saying, xxxLife is but one.xxx I think every youth of us keep this in our minds. let's turn it into reality with our deeds.

Let's not be a man full of promises but without any deeds, like Lusting, one of the characters by Dougeshefol. My fellow students, let's not wander. Let's not hesitate. Only lament and vexation does not mean consideration and exploration. Only lament and vexation does not mean advancing and does not mean mature at all. Let's not kill our lifetime by playing cards. Let's not waste our youth by drinking. Let's not destroy our will without any achievements. Let's make great contribution to human. And only by these can we create benefit life. Every one will have to die and every body will be rotten. But every one may make achievements and contributions. We hate being rotten. Let's brighten up! Up! And up!

Enjoy that uniquenesss1. You do not have to pretend in order to seem more like someone else. You do not have to lie to hide the parts of you that are not like what you see in anyone else.

You were meant to be different. Nowhere, in all of history, will the same things be going on in anyone’s mind, soul and spirit as are going on in yours right now.

If you did not exist, there would be a hole in creation, a gap2 in history, and something missing from the plan for humankind. Treasure your uniqueness. It is a gift given only to you. Enjoy it and share it!

No one can reach out to others in the same way that you can. No one can speak your words. No one can convey your meanings. No one can comfort others with your kind of comfort. No one can bring your kind of understanding to another person. No one can be cheerful and light-hearted3 and joyous4 in your way. No one can smile your smile. No one else can bring the whole unique impact of you to another human being.

Share your uniqueness. Let it flow out freely among your family and friends, and the people you meet in the rush and clutter of living, wherever you are. That gift of yourself was given to you to enjoy and share. Give yourself away!

See it! Receive it!

Let it inform you, move you and inspire you!

An ant was drinking at a river. Suddenly he slipped, and fell into the water.

A dove took pity on him. She threw a small branch into the river. The ant seized the bough, and swam back to the shore.

A few days later, the ant saw a hunter aiming a gun at the dove. He bit the man in the foot sharply.

The man missed the shot, and the dove's life was saved.

The dove felt very grateful. She made good friends with the ant.

一只螞蟻到河邊飲水，卻不幸掉入河中。

一只鴿子看見，扔下一段樹枝，將他救起。

過了不久，螞蟻看見獵人正在拿槍瞄準鴿子，就狠狠地朝他腳上咬了一口，沒讓他打中。

鴿子非常感激螞蟻。從此，他們成了好朋友。

寓意：有些朋友也許平時看似微不足道，但卻有可能在我們身處困境的時候提供巨大的幫助。

高二勵志英語短篇 第四十九篇

What I believe, what I value most, is transitoriness.

But is not transitoriness - the perishableness of life - something very sad? No! It is the verysoul of existence. It imparts value, dignity, interest to life. Transitoriness creates time - andxxxtime is the essence.xxx Potentially at least, time is the supreme, most useful gift.

Time is related to - yes, identical with - everything creative and active, every process towarda higher goal.

Without transitoriness, without beginning or end, birth or death, there is no time, - in the sense of time never ending, never beginning - is a stagnant nothing. It isabsolutely uninteresting.

Life is possessed by tremendous tenacity. Even so its presence remains conditional, and asit had a beginning, so it will have an end. I believe that life, just for this reason, is exceedinglyenhanced in value, in charm.

One of the most important characteristics distinguishing man from all other forms of nature ishis knowledge of transitoriness, of beginning and end, and therefore of the gift of time.

In man transitory life attains its peak of animation, of soul power, so to speak. This does notmean alone would have a soul. Soul quality pervades all beings. But man's soul is most awakein his knowledge of the interchangeability of the term xxxexistencexxx and xxxtransitorinessxxx.

To man time is given like a piece of land, as it were, entrusted to him for faithful tilling; a spacein which to strive incessantly, achieve self-realization, more onward and upward. Yes, with theaid of time, man becomes capable of wresting the immortal from the mortal.

Deep down, I believe - and deem such belief natural to every human soul - that in the universityprime significance must be attributed to this earth of ours. Deep down I believe that creation ofthe universe out of nothingness and of life out of inorganic state ultimately aimed at thecreation of man. I believe that man is meant as a great experiment whose possible failure ofman's own guilt would be paramount to the failure of creation itself.

Whether this belief be true or not, man would be well advised if he behaved as though it were.

沒有短暫，沒有開始與結(jié)束、生與死，時間也就不復存在。永恒是毫無意義的停滯，它意味著時間永遠沒有結(jié)束，也永遠沒有開始，絕對令人乏味。

短暫是我的信仰，也是我認為最重要的東西。

然而短暫，如生命的消逝，不是非常哀傷的事情嗎?不!它正是生命存在的精髓。它賦予了生命價值、尊嚴和情趣。短暫創(chuàng)造了時間——而“時間正是其本質(zhì)”。至少，時間是至高的，是最有用的禮物。

時間與所有富有創(chuàng)造力和活力的事物，及每一個達到更高目標的進步息息相關(guān)——是的，它甚至等同于這一切。

沒有短暫，沒有開始與結(jié)束、生與死，時間也就不復存在。永恒是毫無意義的停滯，它意味著時間永遠沒有結(jié)束，也永遠沒有開始，絕對令人乏味。

生命頑強無比。即便如此，它的存在也依賴于一定的條件，正如它有始亦有終。也因如此，我堅信，生命的價值與魅力將會不斷地增長。

人同自然界其他事物之間最重要的區(qū)別之一就是，人懂得短暫、始與終，所以也了解時間是一種恩賜。

可以這么說，在人身上，短暫的生命達到了其活力與精神力量的巔峰。這并不是說只有人擁有靈魂。萬物皆有靈性。但是對于“存在”與“短暫”的可互換性，只有人的大腦才能最清楚地意識到。

對于人類來說，時間就如賜予的一片土地，等待他去辛勤耕種;是一個讓他不斷奮斗進取，實現(xiàn)自我價值，不斷前進向上的空間。是的，在時間的幫助下，人可以從有限的生命中獲得永恒。

在內(nèi)心深處，我相信宇宙中最為重要的當屬我們的地球，并認為這樣的信念存在于每一個人的心中。從內(nèi)心深處，我相信混沌中宇宙的創(chuàng)造，無機中生命的萌芽，最終都是為了創(chuàng)造人類。我相信人類本身便是一項偉大的實驗，它可能會因人類自身的罪惡而失敗，但這也成為創(chuàng)造本身最主要的失敗。

無論這個信仰是否真實，人類如果能依此行事，將會獲得更為有益的忠告。

New challenges require new ways of thinking

面對新挑戰(zhàn)，要有新思路

Part car, part jet fighter, part spaceship, Bloodhound SSC aims to be the first land vehicle to break the 1,000mph barrier. One of the key challenges has been to design the wheels. How do you create the fastest wheels in history, make them stable and reliable at supersonic speeds, and with limited resources?

部分汽車、部分噴氣式飛機、部分宇宙飛船，獵犬號超級汽車的目標是做世界上第一輛時速突破1000英里的汽車。而這面臨的一項關(guān)鍵挑戰(zhàn)是車輪的設計。如果換做是你，你會如何在有限的資源下發(fā)明出超音速汽車上用的輪子呢?

After much deliberation, and devising ideas that pushed the boundaries of material technology, Mark Chapman, chief engineer of the Bloodhound project said the team decided to take a step back and change the way they were trying to solve problems. “There’s very little we’ve actually developed that’s new,” he says, “what’s unique is how we apply technologies.”

獵犬號項目的總工程師馬克·查普曼思來想去，覺得材料還是不夠好。最后他和他的團隊決定退回一步、換個角度看有沒有別的辦法。“我們實際創(chuàng)新的東西并不多”，馬克說：“我們的獨特之處在于應用技術(shù)的方式別具一格。”

They adopted an approach called the design of experiments – a mathematical technique of problem solving through doing lots of little experiments and then looking at the statistics all glued together. “All of a sudden, where we’d been knocking our head against the wall for maybe two, three, four months, we came up with a wheel design that would hold together and was strong enough,” he says.

他們采用實驗設計的方法做了很多的小實驗，綜合所得的數(shù)據(jù)再得出精確設計。“花了三四個月絞盡腦汁做盡各種實驗之后，很突然地我們做出了一個大膽的設計：把各種可用的(飛機、飛船所用的)技術(shù)都融合在一輛車上，從而使它足夠強大。”馬克說。

高二勵志英語短篇 第五十篇

“Once upon a time， there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince…xxx Well, you know the rest. The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.

And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line xxxAnd they live happily every after.xxx

Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story. It is highly philosophical and symbolic. By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.

The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. The term xxxsuccessxxx, to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.

If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.

The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.

I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. Now here I am. If I come out first, it will be a great success for me. If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.

Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.

Thank you.

I look at spiders and butter-flies . I watch caterpillars and moths . Sometimes I think I'm the only one who notices these things . But if it hadn't been for a crowded cafeteria , I wouldn't Have ever noticed Valeri . After all , I wasn't looking for new friends .

我觀察蜘蛛和蝴蝶，還研究毛毛蟲和飛蛾。有時，我想我是唯一注意這些事物的人了。要不是一家擁擠的自助餐廳，我將永遠不會注意到瓦萊麗。畢竟，我一直都沒有找新朋友。

Valeri was a new student . She walked to class with her books huddled against her chest and her head down . He talked only when the teacher asked her a question . After a month at our school , she hadn't made any friend . At recess , she sat on a bench and read . If you asked who she was , you'd get a response like this , xxxShe's in my PE class , I can't remenber her name .xxx

瓦萊麗是新來的學生。她總是將書抱在胸前，低著頭走進教室。只有在老師提問她時，她才肯說話。她來我們學校一個月了，還沒交到一個朋友。課間，她就坐在長椅上看書。如果你想知道她是誰，那你多半會得到這樣的答復：“我和她在一起上體育課，但我不記得她叫什么。”

One day at lunch , I had nowhere to sit . Most tables were full , my friends scattered among them . But Valeri sat alone , book in hand , I walked over to her .

一天，吃午餐時，餐桌差不多都坐滿了，我沒地方坐了，我的朋友們都分散開了。但瓦萊麗拿著書一個人坐在那兒。于是，我朝她走了過去。

xxxMay I sit here ?xxxI asked .

“我可以坐在這兒嗎？”我問。

xxxSure ,xxxshe said .

“當然可以。”她說。

The cafeteria was noisy , but silence hung between us . Valeri didn't seem to mind , but it drove me crazy . I searched my mind for things to say .

餐廳里喧鬧不已，而我們一直都沉默著。瓦萊麗好像并不在意，但我憋得受不了了。我絞盡腦汁，想找點話說。

xxxSo,xxxI said , xxxis that a good book?xxxValeri gave a small nod and went back to reading . xxxWhat's it about?xxxI asked , after several more agonizing seconds of silence . She looked at me , her eyes sparkling .

“呃，那本書很好看吧？”瓦萊麗輕輕的點了點頭，又繼續(xù)看書。“都寫了些什么呢？”我問道。一陣令人惱火的沉默之后，她終于看著我，眼中閃出異樣的光芒。

xxxWell , it's called Eragon , and it's about a dragon!This boy , Eragon , finds this dragon egg when he goes hunging one day . He thinks it's a rock !The egg hatches and Eragon hides the dragon from his cousin and uncle until it gets too big .xxx

“唔，它叫《龍騎士》，講的是關(guān)于一條龍的故事！一天，一個名叫鄂爾根的男孩打獵時，發(fā)現(xiàn)了一枚龍蛋。他以為那是一塊石頭，但那枚龍蛋孵化出龍來，鄂爾根怕他的叔叔和堂兄發(fā)現(xiàn)，便把那條龍藏了起來，直到它長大。”

xxxThat sounds cool.xxxI said. I was about to ask her another question,but the bell rang.

“聽來真不錯。”我說。我還想再問個問題，可上課鈴響了。

As I rushed out of the cafeteria , I called to Valeri , xxxSee you later .xxx

我一邊往餐廳外沖，一邊對她大叫：“再見。”

xxxYeah,xxxshe said,xxxsee you later.xxxShe sounded doubtful .

“好的，”她說，“再見。”她的聲音若有若無。

A couple days later , I spotted Valeri looking for a place to sit at lunch .

幾天以后，我發(fā)現(xiàn)瓦萊麗正在找地方坐下來吃飯。

xxxValeri , come here.xxxI pointed to an empty chair .

“瓦萊麗，來這里。”我指著一個空座位說。

She sat down and pulled out her book . Everyone was talking about next week's talent show . xxxSo ,what are you doing for the show? xxxMy friend Erin asked my friend Kelly .

她坐了下來，拿出書。當時，大家都在談論下個星期的才藝展示會。“你打算表演什么？”我的朋友埃林和凱利交談著。

xxxOh,I don't know , probably nothing,xxxKelly sighed .xxxWhat are you doing?xxxShe pointed to Valeri.

“噢，我不知道，也許會放棄，”凱利嘆著氣，“你呢？”她問瓦萊麗。

xxxOh.xxxValeri put her book down .xxxI don't know . Maybe nothing.xxx

“噢，”瓦萊麗放下書，“我不知道，也許什么也不演。”

The week flew by . Before I knew it . I was sitting in the auditorium , listening to a group of girls sing the latest pop songs at the talent show . I was bored out of my life , and I wanted it to end so I could read Eragon . I'd checked it out at the library , Then a shy girl walked on stage . I recongized her immediately . Valeri clutched a violin in one hand and a bow in the other .

不知不覺中，周末就到了，我坐在會堂里，聽一群女孩子唱當下最流行的歌曲，感覺卻枯燥極了，真希望演唱快點結(jié)束，那樣我就可以看《龍騎士》了，我在圖書館找到了這本書。這時，一個靦腆的女孩走上了舞臺，我立刻認出了她------瓦萊麗。她一手抓著小提琴，一手拿著琴弓。

She stared to play . The notes formed a soft , weet tune . Then it turned fast , then faster . The music stopped altogether before the tune retumed . Valeri ended the song with one hard , fast , loud note . The auditorium fell completely silent until we realized the music was finished . Still in a halftrance , we burst into applause . Valeri took a swift bow and walked off stage .

她開始拉提琴了。一個個音符變成了柔和,優(yōu)美的旋律，韻律逐漸加快，她越拉越急，音樂聲戛然而止。樂曲在瓦萊麗拉出一串強硬，急速，洪亮的音符后歸于沉寂。會堂里出奇的安靜，過了一會兒，我們才意識到她已經(jīng)演奏完了。仍陶醉于美妙中的我們對她報以雷鳴般的掌聲。瓦萊麗快速地鞠了一躬，走下了舞臺。

I smiled to myself . Valeri wasn't just a xxxquiet girlxxx .She knew about wonderful books and could play the violin like nothing I'd ever heard . Like a caterpillar or butterfly , she was beautiful and amazing when you looked closely .

我暗自微笑，原來瓦萊麗不僅僅是一個“安靜的女孩”，她博覽奇妙的好書，能拉出我聞所未聞的小提琴曲。她就像那毛毛蟲或蝴蝶，當你靠近她，仔細的觀察，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)，她有著驚人的美。

高二勵志英語短篇 第五十四篇

People are not born to fail, a person can be destroyed, but if we do not defeat, we can not eliminate fear, only control fear. God dominates everything. If we want to conquer the world, we must conquer ourselves first, everything will kill others, but everyone in the world wants to suffer setbacks in different ways.

On the contrary, many people grow up in broken places Strong youn from one place to another, but you are still you. You can't escape from your body. This world is a good place.

As long as we don't kill us, our difficulties will make us stronger. We must get used to standing at the crossroads of life, but there are no traffic lights there.

中文翻譯：

人不是生來就要失敗的，一個人是可以毀滅的，但是不去打敗我們就不能消除恐懼，只能控制恐懼是上帝主宰一切，如果要征服世界，我們必須先征服自己，一切都會了別人，但是世界上每個人都想以不同的方式遭受挫折，相反，有很多人在破碎的地方成長最堅強的你從一個地方跑到另一個地方，但是你仍然是你你你無法從你的身體里逃脫這個世界是一個很好的地方，只要不掉我們的困難會使我們變得更強大我們必須習慣，站在人生的十字路口，但是那里沒有紅綠燈。

高二勵志英語短篇 第五十五篇

Mr. Johnson had never been up in an aerophane before ， so one day when a friend offered to take him for a ride in his own small phane, Mr. Johnson was very worried about accepting. Finally, however, his friend persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr. Johnson boarded the plane.

約翰遜先生從前未乘過飛機。所以，有一天一位朋友邀請他乘自己的小飛機飛行時，約翰遜先生非常擔心，不敢接受。不過，由于朋友不斷保證說飛行是很安全的，約翰遜先生終于被說服了，登上了飛機。

His friend started the engine and began to taxi onto the runway of the airport. Mr. Johnson had heard that the most dangerous part of a flight were the take-off and the landing, so he was extremely frightened and closed his eyes.

他的朋友啟動引擎開始在機場跑道上滑行。約翰遜先生聽說飛行中最危險的是起飛與降落，所以他嚇得緊閉雙眼。

After a minute or two he opened them again, looked out of the window of the plane, and said to his friend, xxxLook at those people down there. They look as small as ants, don't they?xxx

過了一兩分鐘，他睜開雙眼朝窗外望去，接著對朋友說道：“看下面那些人，他們看起來就象螞蟻一樣小，是不是？”

xxxThose are ants,xxx answered his friend. xxxWe're still on the ground.xxx

“那些就是螞蟻，”他的朋友答道，“我們還在地面上。”
