篇一：
Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth. And what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignant ， so unutterable， with such a bitter pain and joy， when we are young? It is this：that being rich， we are so poor; that being mighty， we can yet have nothing; that seeing， breathig， smelling， tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth， feeling with an intolerable certitude that the whole structure of the enchanted life – the most fortunate， wealthy， good， and happy life that any man has ever known – is ours – is ours at once， immediately and forever， the moment that we choose to take a step， or stretch a hand， or say a word—— we yet know that we can really keep， hold， take， and possess forever—— nothing. All passes; nothing lasts：the moment that we put our hand upon it ， it melts away like smoke， is gone forever， and the snake is eating at our heart again; we see then what we are and what our lives must come to.
為什么如此?因為在青春時代，生活充滿了奇特而辛酸的不可思議的事。我們在青春年少時帶著悲喜交集的心情，十分強烈而不可名狀地感受到人生的奇特辛酸、不 可思議的經歷。其實質是什么呢?其實質是這樣的：青春年少的時候，雖然殷實富足，卻非常貧窮;雖然力氣強大，卻一無所有;世間的富貴榮華觸目皆是，簡直可 以呼吸到，聞到嗅到，還可以品嘗到，心中的自信按捺不住，深切地感受到整個被陶醉了的生活——人類迄今為止所知道的最幸運、最富有的美好幸福的生活， 只要我們決定向前邁步，奮發努力，便立即歸我們所有了，并將永遠屬于我們。然而，我們知道，我們真的永遠不能抓到什么，永遠不能獲得什么，永遠不能占有什 么。一切匆匆過去，蕩然無存。我們一出手它就煙消云散，飄然而去，一去不復返了。于是，心中泛起陣陣隱痛，看到了自己真實的面孔，看到了自己未來生活的必然走向。
篇二：
Though there is much to be concerned about,there is far,far more for which to be thankful.Though life’s goodness can at times be overshadowed,it is never outweighed.For every single act that is senselessly destructive,there are thousands more small,quiet acts of love,kindness and compassion.For every person who seeks to hurt,there are many,many more who devote their lives to helping and to healing.There is goodness to life that cannot be denied.In the most magnificent vistas and in the smallest details,look closely,for that goodness always comes shining through.There si no limit to the goodness of life.It grows more abundant with each new encounter.The more you experience and appreciate the goodness of life,the more there is to be lived.Even when the cold winds blow and the world seems to be cov ered in foggy shadows,the goodness of life lives on.Open your eyes,open your heart,and you will see that goodness is everywhere.
盡管有很多事讓人憂慮，但相比而言，值得感激的事要多得多。盡管生命的美好有時被蒙上陰影，但它卻永遠不會被埋沒。相對于每一個無謂的破壞行為而言，都有更多數以千計更為微小的，包含著愛，友善和同情的舉動靜靜地上演著。相對于每一個試圖傷害他人的人而言，都有更多的人致力于幫助他人，治愈他人的創傷。
生命的美好不能否認。在最為壯觀的前景和最為瑣碎的細節中，請仔細觀察，因為美好的事物總是散發著耀眼的光芒閃亮登場。生命的美好沒有界限。每一次相遇都會使這美好變得越發豐富。你經歷得越多，越能欣賞生命的美好，生命中的美好就會變得越多。即使當寒風襲來，整個世界似乎被霧氣掩蓋之時，生命的美好仍會存在。睜開雙眼，打開心扉，你就會發現這美好無處不在。
篇三：
Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are pided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."
一位父親有幾個孩子，這些孩子時常發生口角。他絲毫沒有辦法來勸阻他們，只好讓他們看看不合群所帶來害處的例子。為了達到這個目的，有一天他叫他們替他拿一捆細柴來。當他們把柴帶來時，他便先后地將那捆柴放在每一個孩子的手中，吩咐他們弄斷這捆柴。他們一個個盡力去試，總是不能成功。然后他解開那捆柴，一根根地放在他們手里，如此一來，他們便毫不費力地折斷了。于是他就告訴他們說："孩子們!如果你們大家團結一致，互相幫助，你們就像這捆柴一樣，不能被你們的敵人折斷;但如果你們自行分裂，你們就將和這些散柴一般，不堪一折了。"
