  短篇英语美⽂篇1
  As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.
  Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determin
ation to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.
  学习之于⼼灵，就像⾷物之于⾝体⼀样。摄取了适量的营养⾷物，我们的⾝体得以⽣长⽽肌⾁得以发达。同样地，我们应该⽇复⼀⽇不断地学习以保持我们敏锐的⼼智能⼒，并扩充我们的智⼒容量。不断的学习提供我们⽤不尽的燃料，来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、分析和判断的能⼒。持续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代并驾齐驱的最稳当的⽅法，也是在变动的世代中成功的可靠保证。
  ⼀旦学习停⽌，单调贫乏的⽣活就开始了。视学校为汲取知识的唯⼀场所是种常见的谬误。相反地，学习应该是⼀种⽆终⽌的历程，从⽣到死。由于世界⼀直快速地在变动，只要学习停顿数⽇就将使⼈落后。更糟的是，蛰伏在我们潜意识深处的本能就会复活，削弱我们追求⾼贵理想的意志，弱化我们扫除成功障碍的决⼼，⽽且扼杀我们净化我们⼈格的欲望。缺少学习将不可避免地导致⼼灵的停滞，甚⾄更糟地，使其僵化。因此，为了保持⼼理年轻，我们必须将学习当作⼀⽣的事业。
  短篇英语美⽂篇2
  In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and w
ell-rounded adults. High should be allowed more time for play. Plying is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercise their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole.
  我认为⽬前⾼中⽣的课业实在太重了，虽然说学⽣的确应当念书，但是要想长⼤成为健全的⼈，他门还需要⼀些其它的东西，所以应该给⾼中⽣较多从事娱乐的时间。娱乐并不如某些⼈所想的，是在浪费时间，它可以让学⽣锻炼⾝体，发挥被繁重课业扼杀的想象⼒。此外，繁重的课业加诸在⾼中⽣⾝上的压⼒可能引起严重的情绪紧张，这对⾝⼼都有害。我并⾮主张废除学校课业，但是我认为减轻⽬前繁重的课业对于学⽣和整个社会都是有益的。
  短篇英语美⽂篇3
  Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.
  Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.
  时光⼀去不复返，这是我上学期清楚学到的教训。我浪费很多时间四处游荡，以致于我的成绩开始退步。最后我终于了解到我必须有所作为；该是痛改前⾮的时候了。
  现在我有⼀个明智运⽤时间的新⽅法。我已将闹钟早拨半⼩时，这将使我这⼀天的作息提前开始。我也决定将我所做的⼀切及做这些事的时间记录下来。回顾我所做的事情会启发我如何重新安排我的时间。
  短篇英语美⽂篇4
  However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The faultfinder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse.
  The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's a
bode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means. Which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage.
  Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
  译⽂：
  不论你的⽣活如何卑贱，你要⾯对它⽣活，不要躲避它，更别⽤恶⾔咒骂它。它不像你那样坏。你最富有的时候，倒是看似最穷。爱缺点的⼈就是到天堂⾥也能到缺点。你要爱你的⽣活，尽管它贫穷。甚⾄在⼀个济贫院⾥，你也还有愉快、⾼兴、光荣的时候。
  ⼣阳反射在济贫院的窗上，像⾝在富户⼈家窗上⼀样光亮；在那门前，积雪同在早春融化。我只看到，⼀个从容的⼈，在哪⾥也像在皇宫中⼀样，⽣活得⼼满意⾜⽽富有愉快的思想。城镇中的穷⼈，我看，倒往往是过着最独⽴不羁的⽣活。也许因为他们很⼤，所以受之⽆愧。⼤多数⼈以为他们是超
然的，不靠城镇来⽀援他们；可是事实上他们是往往利⽤了不正当的⼿段来对付⽣活，他们是毫不超脱的，⽏宁是不体⾯的。
  视贫穷如园中之花⽽像圣⼈⼀样耕植它吧！不要新的花样，⽆论是新的朋友或新的⾐服，来⿇烦你⾃⼰。旧的，回到那⾥去。万物不变，是我们在变。你的⾐服可以卖掉，但要保留你的思想。
  短篇英语美⽂篇5
  Greta always said, "dear, keep walking in sunshine!" no matter how terrible my day started, i always felt sunny walking home from greta’s house-even beneath the winter starlight.葛丽塔总是这样说：“亲爱的，请⾛在阳光⾥！”⽆论我过的每⼀天是如何糟糕地开始，从葛丽塔的⼩屋出来⾛回家的时候，即使是披着冬夜的星光，我都会感觉⼼情愉悦。
  I arrived at greta’s house today just after sunset. an ambulance had stopped a few feet from her door, it’s red lights flashing. when i ran into the old house, greta recognized me right away.这天，我在傍晚后来到了葛丽塔的`家。⼀辆救护停在她家门⼝附近，红⾊的灯在闪烁不停。当我冲进她家的⽼房⼦，葛丽塔⽴刻认出了我。
  She smiled at me with her unforgettable twinkling blue eyes. she was almost out of breath when sh
e reached out and softly touched my arm. her last words to me were "dear, keep walking in sunshine!"她对我微笑，⼀双令⼈难忘的蓝眼睛闪烁着光芒。当她艰难地⾛出来，温柔地抚摸着我的胳膊的时候，她⼏乎已经奄奄⼀息。她对我说的最后⼀句话是：“亲爱的，记得⼀直要⾛在阳光下。”
  短篇英语美⽂篇6
  Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
  ⽆论是60岁还是16岁，你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇⼼、永不熄灭的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事业成功的欢乐与热情。在你我的⼼底，有⼀座⽆线电台，它能在多长时间⾥接收到⼈间万物传递来的美好、希望、欢乐、⿎舞和⼒量的信息，你就会年轻多长时间。
  An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.
  ⼈的⽣命应当像河流，开始是涓涓细流，受两岸的限制⽽⼗分狭窄，尔后奔腾咆哮，翻过危岩，飞越瀑布，河⾯渐渐开阔，河岸也随之向两边隐去，最后⽔流平缓，森森⽆际，汇⼊⼤海之中，个⼈就这样毫⽆痛苦地消失了。
  Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.青春意味着战胜懦弱的那股⼤丈夫⽓概和摈弃安逸的那种冒险精神。往往⼀个60岁的⽼者⽐⼀个20岁的青年更多⼀点这种劲头。⼈⽼不仅仅是岁⽉流逝所致，更主要的是不思进取的结果。
  Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
  光阴可以在颜⾯上留下印记，⽽热情之⽕的熄灭则在⼼灵上刻下皱纹。烦恼、恐惧、缺乏⾃信会扭曲⼈的灵魂，并将青春化为灰烬。
  短篇英语美⽂篇7
  Youth
  By Samuel Ullman
  Youth is not a time of life; itis a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and suppleknees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of theemotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
  Youth means a temperamentalpredominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over thelove of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobodygrows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
  Yearsmay wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
  Whether 60 or 16, there is inevery human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what’snext and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and myheart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you areyoung.
  When your aerials are down, andyour spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessim
ism, thenyou’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catchwaves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
  译⽂：
  青春
  青春不是年华，⽽是⼼境；青春不是桃⾯、丹唇、柔膝，⽽是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙热的恋情；青春是⽣命的深泉在涌流。
  青春⽓贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安。如此锐⽓，⼆⼗后⽣⽽有之，六旬男⼦则更多见。年岁有加，并⾮垂⽼，理想丢弃，⽅堕暮年。
  岁⽉悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。忧烦，惶恐，丧失⾃信，定使⼼灵扭曲，意⽓如灰。
  ⽆论年届花甲，拟或⼆⼋芳龄，⼼中皆有⽣命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。⼈⼈⼼中皆有⼀台天线，只要你从天上⼈间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇⽓和⼒量的信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存。
  ⼀旦天线下降，锐⽓便被冰雪覆盖，玩世不恭、⾃暴⾃弃油然⽽⽣，即使年⽅⼆⼗，实已垂垂⽼矣；然则只要树起天线，捕捉乐观信号，你就有望在⼋⼗⾼龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。

  Ah, beautiful Paris. For centuries this city has attracted the admiration of the world. The allure and charm of Paris captivate all who visit there.
  Where can you discover the charm of Paris for yourseIf. Is it in the legacy of all the French rulers who worked to beautify their beloved city? Is it in the famous castles, palaces, statues and monuments? Can you it in the world-class museums, such as the Louvre? Perhaps Paris' allure lies in the zest and style of the Parisians.
  When you visit Paris, you don't have to spend all of your time visiting museums and monuments. They are certainly worthy of your time, but ignore them for a day. First take some time to look around and experience life in Paris. You'll find it charming.
  Take a stroll along the Seine River. Browse through the art vendors colorful paintings. Peek through delicate iron gates at the well kept gardens. Watch closely for the French attention to detail that has
made France synonymous with good taste. You will see it in the design of a doorway or arch and in the little fountains and quaint balconies. No matter where you look,you will find everyday objects transformed into works by art.美文美段
  Spend some time in a quiet park relaxing on an oid bench. Lie on your back on the green grass. When you need refreshment, try coffee and pastries at a sidewalk cafe. Strike up a conversation with a Parisian. This isn't always easy, though. With such a large international population living in Paris, true natives are hard to find these days.
  As evening comes to Paris, enchantment rises with the mist over the riverfront. You may hear music from an outdoor concert nearby classical, jazz, opera or chansons, those French folk songs. Parisians love their music. The starry sky is their auditorium. You can also hear concerts in the chateaux and cathedrals. In Paris the Music never ends.
  Don't miss the highlight of Paris evening: eating out. Parisians are proud of their cuisine. And rightly so; it's world famous. Gourmet dining is one of the indispensable joys ofliving. You need a special guidebook to help you choose one of the hundreds of excellent restaurants. The capital of France boasts every regional specialty, cheese and wine the country has to offer. If you don't know what to o
rder, ask for the suggested menu. The chef likes to showcase his best dishes there. Remember, you haven't tasted the true flavor ofF
