英語美文網站篇一：英語短篇美文

1、Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

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 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

2、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.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for 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, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.

When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you've grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there's hope you may die young at 80.

1、 青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志、宏偉的想象、熾熱的感情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，進去壓倒茍安，如此銳氣，二十后生有之，六旬男子則更多見。年年有加，并非垂老；理想丟棄，方墮暮年。

2、歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹唐必至靈魂。煩憂、惶恐、喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。

無論年屆花甲，抑或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一臺天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號，你就青春永駐，風華常存。一旦天線倒塌，銳氣被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，幾十年方二十，實已垂老矣；然則只要豎起天線，捕捉樂觀的信號，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺得年輕。

3、Five Hundred Times 五百遍

In the traffic court of a large mid-western city, a young lady was brought before the judge to answer a ticket given her for driving through a red light. She explained to his honor that she was a school teacher and requested an immediate disposal of her case in order that she might hasten on to her classes. A wild gleam came into the judge's eye. "You are a school teacher, eh?" said he. "Madam, I shall realize my lifelong ambition. Sit down at that table and write 'I went through a red light' five hundred times."

在中西部一個大城市的交通法庭里，一位年輕女士被帶到法官面前，她由于開車闖紅燈被開了罰單。女士向法官解釋，她是一名學校老師，請求法官馬上處理她的案子，以便可以趕回去上課。法官眼中閃過一絲狡黠，說道：“你是學校的老師，對嗎？女士，我馬上要實現我畢生的愿望了。在那張桌子旁坐下，寫?我開車闖了紅燈?500遍�！�

4、 Second language

A mother mouse was out for a stroll with her babies when she spotted a cat crouched behind a bush. She watched the cat, and the cat watched the mice.

Mother mouse barked fiercely, "Woof, woof, woof!" The cat was so terrified that it ran for it's life.

Mother mouse turned to her babies and said, "Now, do you understand the value of a second language?" 一只母老鼠帶著孩子出來散步，突然她看見一只貓正在灌木叢中虎視耽耽。母老鼠向著貓叫道：“汪，汪，汪”，貓聽了非常害怕，拼命跑走了。母老鼠回過頭洋洋自得的對孩子說：“現在你知道外語的重要性了吧�！�

5、verybody?s business is nobody?s business

There are four people named everybody, somebody, anybody and nobody. There was an important job to be done and everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure that somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but nobody did it. Some body got angry about that because it was

everybody?s job. Everybody thought anybody could do it, but nobody realized that everybody wouldn?t do it. It ended up that everybody blamed somebody when nobody did what anybody could have done. 有四個人分別叫做：“每個人”、“某個人”、“任何人”和“沒有人”。有一次，他們每個人都要被要求去完成一件重要的工作。大家都相信某個人會去做這件事。其實，任何人都可以完成這項工作的，但就是沒有人去做。某個人對此感到非常氣憤，因為這是大家的任務。每個人都認為任何人可以完成這件事，但沒有人認識到大家都不會去做這件事。結果呢，當沒有人去做其實任何人都可以做到的事情的時候，每個人都在抱怨某個人。

6、A Woodman came into a forest to ask the Trees to give him a handle for Ax. It seemed so modest a request that the principal tree at once agreed to it, and it was settled among them that the plain, homely Ash should furnish what was wanted.

No sooner had the Woodman fitted the staff to his purpose ,than he began laying about him on all side. felling the whole matter too late, whispered to the Cedar: "the first concession has lost all ;if we has not a sacrificed our humble neighbor, we might have yet stood for ages ourselves."

有一個樵夫來到森林里，要求樹給他一跟斧柄，看來他的請求非常謙虛，立刻得到了樹的首領的同意。他們決定由平凡而樸素的白楊樹來提供所需要的東西。樵夫剛按好斧柄，就開始到處亂砍，森林里最高的樹都砍倒了，樹林現在察覺大勢已去，就小聲對衫樹說："第一次的讓步已失去了一切。如果我們不犧牲我們的小小的鄰居，我們自己還可以活無數年呢。"

7、Friends(朋友)

A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

真正的朋友是一個可以援手幫助并感動你心扉的人。

There's always going to be people that hurt you,so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.

別人常常傷害你，所以你該繼續(xù)付出信任，并小心挑選你下次信任的人。

Make youself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

在你想了解別人也想讓別人了解你之前，先完善并了解自己。

Remember:Whatever happens,happens for a reason.

要記�。喝魏问虑榈陌l(fā)生都有因有起。

How many people actually have 8 true friends?Hardly、 anyone I know.But some of us have all right friends and good friends.

有多少人可以擁有八個真正的朋友？就我所知少之又少。但我們會有泛泛之交和好友。

8、

The pure.the bright,the beautiful, 一切純潔的,輝煌的,美麗的,

That stirred our hearts in youth, 強烈地震撼著我們年輕的心靈的,

The longing after something's lost, 在失去后為之感到珍惜的,

The spirit's yearning cry, 使靈魂深切地呼喊著的,

The striving after better hopes- 為了更美好的夢想而奮斗著的-

These things can never die. 這些美好不會消逝。

The timid hand stretched forth to aid 羞怯地伸出援助的手，

A brother in his need, 在你的弟兄需要的時候，

A kindly word in grief's dark hour 傷慟、困難的時候，一句親切的話

That proves a friend indeed ; 就足以證明朋友的真心；

The plea for mercy softly breathed, 輕聲地乞求憐憫，

Let nothing pass for every hand 在人間傳遞溫情

Must find some work to do ; 盡你所能地去做；

Lose not a chance to waken love- 別錯失去了喚醒愛的良機-----

Be firm,and just ,and true; 為人要堅定，正直，忠誠；

So shall a light that cannot fade 因此上方照耀著你的那道光芒

Beam on thee from on high. 就不會消失。

And angel voices say to thee---你將聽到天使的聲音在說-----

These things shall never die. 這些美好不會消逝。

9、

Be with People When You Are Sad

來源：網易教育專稿

There are times when we are faced with illnesses, disorders, disabilities some type of tragedy that causes us to lose contact with ourselves and the world in which we live. Our happiness begins to fade and our heart begins to grow heavy. This affects the way we think, live, feel and the way we look at life.

Talk with optimistic and encouraging people for they bring a sense of hope into the world, a new meaning to life. They help you see past the clouds on a glooming day，they bring sunlight everyday.

Happiness is when you are with people who love you for who you are, this is the true meaning of

love and friendship. Each day you are reborn with love and joy when you realize that you have people by your side that care.

傷心時不必獨處

有時候我們會遭遇疾病，混亂，無力等一些災難，這些災難會暫時使我們迷失自我，并與這個我們賴以生存的世界失去聯系。我們的快樂開始褪卻，我們的內心開始變得沉重。這一切影響著我們的思維，生活，感情以及對待生活的方式。

去和積極樂觀的人們聊聊天，因為他們帶給世界一線希望，帶給生活新的意義。他們會幫助你在陰郁的天氣里抹去烏云。

當你和真正關愛你的人在一起時，這才是快樂，同時這也是愛與友誼的真正含義。每天當你意識到有人在你身邊關愛著你時，你便和愛與喜悅一起重生。

10、 If I Could Catch a Rainbow

If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you

And share with its beauty

On the days you’re feeling blue.

If I could build a mountain

You could call your very own

A place to find serenity

A place to be alone.

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them into the sea

But all these things I’m finding

Are impossible for me.

I cannot build a mountain

Or catch a rainbow fair

But let me be what I know best

A friend that’s always there.

如果我能留住彩虹

我將只為你一個人挽留在你感到憂傷的日子與你分享它的美麗

如果我能建造大山

你盡可把它當成你自己的體驗寧靜的空間

獨處的地方

如果我能帶走你的煩惱我會把它們通通扔進大海然而我發(fā)現所有這些事情我都無能為力

我建不成一座大山

也留不住彩虹的美麗就讓我做你最好的朋友吧永遠與你相伴

英語美文—雙語

·1. 女人一生中最重要的一雙鞋

Avery has fallen head over heels for shoes. And not just any shoes. Stilettos are what make her go weak at the knees .

艾弗里對于鞋子可謂情有獨鐘，但并非所有的鞋都能投其所好，細高跟鞋才是她的最愛。 Ms Avery wears "all different types and colours of heels".

艾弗里小姐則嘗試過“各種款式和顏色的高跟鞋”。

Her favourite is a pair of leopard-print, peep-toe heels from Australian designer Leona Edmiston, but the brand favoured by more than any other of those surveyed was ManoloBlahnik.

其中，她最喜歡的是由澳大利亞設計師莉澳娜·愛德米斯頓設計的一雙豹紋露趾高跟鞋。但據調查，最受女性青睞的鞋品牌是莫羅·伯拉尼克。

Favoured by shoe-crazed Carrie Bradshaw of Sex And The City fame, ManoloBlahniks are famous for their sleek lines, not comfort levels.

《欲望都市》中“嗜鞋如命”的卡莉·布拉德肖對莫羅·伯拉尼克牌高跟鞋也是鐘愛有加。這個品牌高跟鞋的最大亮點是它優(yōu)美的弧線，而非舒適度。

The 21-year-old owns "about 30" pairs of heels, but she is by no means a rarity: a survey of more than 450 Australian women found 32 per cent owned between 26 and 50 pairs of heels, while 31 per cent owned between 11 and 25 pairs.

21歲的艾弗里有“大約30雙”高跟鞋，但她絕對算不上另類。一項共有450多名澳大利亞女性參加的調查發(fā)現，32%的女性擁有26至50雙高跟鞋，31%的女性有11至25雙高跟鞋。 Conducted by American shoe guru Meghan Cleary for two online dating services, the survey found that 80 per cent of women would wear stilettos or strappy heels on a first date.

美國時尚鞋大師梅根·克利瑞為兩家在線約會網站所做的此項調查顯示，80%的女性在第一次約會時會選擇穿細高跟鞋或絆帶高跟鞋。

Of those surveyed, 66 per cent said buying shoes was better than eating chocolate, while almost half of the women surveyed said high heels were the best way to boost sex appeal. Black was the colour of choice for 60 per cent of women, while 16 per cent favoured red and 7 per cent pink. 66%的受訪者認為買鞋要比吃巧克力有意思，近一半的受訪女性說穿高跟鞋是增加性感度的最好辦法。此外，60%的女性青睞黑色鞋，16%的女性喜歡紅顏色的鞋，7%的人喜歡粉色鞋。 "Australian women overwhelmingly went for the stiletto as their favourite pair of shoes and shoes for a first date," Ms Cleary said.

克利瑞女士說：“澳洲女性尤為鐘愛高跟鞋，她們第一次約會通常都會穿高跟鞋�！�

"They also named their first pair of high heels as the most important shoe they will wear in their life."

“而且她們認為自己的第一雙高跟鞋是一生中所穿的最重要的鞋�！�

2.不一般的女人:第66任美國國務卿-賴斯

不一般的女人:第66任美國國務卿-賴斯

The Moscow News wasn't sure what to make Condoleezza Rice when the 34-year-old Stanford University professor came to town in 1988 to inaugurate1 a series of seminars2 at the U.S. ambassador's3 residence. She spoke of arms control policy and of a coming summit4 with the United States, but the writer could not quite get past the notion5 of a young black woman as an expert on So

viet affairs.

1988年,34歲的斯坦福大學教授康多莉扎.賴斯來到莫斯科主持召開在美國大使官邸舉行的

系列研討會時，《莫斯科新聞》還不知道她是何許人也。她談到了軍備控制政策和即將召開的美俄首腦會晤，但是筆者實在不明白一名年輕的黑人婦女是怎樣成為一位蘇聯問題專家的。 “ The men... couldn't help wondering: ‘ She should be busy cooking and driving her admirers mad. But instead she aptly6 juggles7 numbers of missiles and tanks, names of marshals8 and dates of summits,’ ” the paper wrote.

這家報紙寫道：“男人們……都不免奇怪：‘她應該忙于燒火做飯和使得她的愛慕者們發(fā)瘋。但是她卻能敏捷地從口中蹦出導彈和坦克的數目、元帥們的姓名和許多次首腦會談的日期�！�” It would be neither the first nor the last time that Rice, President-elect George W. Bush's choice to head the National Security Council, would exceed expectations.“ I've seen it happen time and time again,” said Michael McFaul, a Democrat who advised Al Gore's campaign but is close to Rice. “ Foreign policy is dominated by bald9, graying white men and they're not used to someone like Condi Rice.”

賴斯是當選總統(tǒng)喬治.布什挑中的國家安全委員會負責人人選。她超出人們預料這恐怕既不是第一次，也不會是最后一次。一位曾擔任戈爾陣營顧問但現在接近賴斯的民主黨人邁克爾.麥克福爾說：“這種情況我已屢見不鮮了。外交政策一向由禿頂的、老成的白人所把持，他們是容不下像康迪.賴斯這樣的人的�！�

Indeed, Rice, 46, bears little outward10 resemblance11 to Hey Kissinger, the quintessential national security adviser, but friends and colleagues say she is among of the smartest, most articulate12 and charming people they know.A steely13 manager, she also is a concert pianist and maniacal14 sports fan, half-joking that the only job she would rather have is commissioner of the National Football League.

確實，現年46歲的賴斯，外表與美國最完美的國家安全顧問亨利.基辛格沒有多少相似之處，但是朋友和同事們說，賴斯是他們所認識的頭腦最精明、口齒最清楚和風度最迷人的人物之

一。她是一個鐵石心腸的管理者，但也是一個音樂會上的鋼琴演奏者和狂熱的體育運動愛好者，她還半開玩笑地說，她應該擔任的惟一職務是全國橄欖球聯盟主席。

Philosophically, she is quite conservative. Rice argues against humanitarian15 missions and international treaties and for a hard line on Russia and putting U.S. strategic interests at the center of all decisions.“ American foreign policy in a Repulican administration should refocus the United States on the national interest,” Rice wrote this year in Foreign Affairs magazine. “ There is nothing wrong with doing something that benefits all humanity,but that is,in a sense,a second-order effect.”

從哲學角度講，她是相當保守的。賴斯反對從事人道主義使命和簽訂國際條約；她贊成對俄羅斯采取強硬政策，同時還主張將美國的戰(zhàn)略利益置于一切決定的中心。賴斯今年在《外交》雜志上撰文稱：“共和黨政府的美國外交政策應該是重新關注美國的國家利益。做一些有益于全人類的事情并沒有錯，但從某種意義上講，那不是頭等大事�！�

An expert on the Soviet Union, Rice was plucked16 from academia in 1989 by Brent Scowcroft to serve on the National Security Council of former President George Bush, where she helped shape U.S. policy during the tumultuous17 time of the Soviet Union's collapse18.

作為蘇聯問題專家，賴斯于1989年被布倫特?斯考克羅夫特從學術界相中，進入前總統(tǒng)喬治?布什的國家安全委員會，為制訂美國在蘇聯解體這一動蕩時期的政策出謀劃策。

She was responsible for a part of the world that was exploding, giving her unusual access19 to the President. They would develop a friendship that, nearly a decade later, would lead Rice to his son.

賴斯負責的是出現爆炸性局勢的國家，她因而得以頻繁接觸總統(tǒng)。他們之間建立起的友誼在

近10年之后也使賴斯成為小布什之選。

She first met George W. Bush in 1995 when she happened to be in Texas visiting his father. They talked mostly about their shared passion? ?sports. Bush, in his first year as Texas governor, had neither foreign policy nor the presidency on his mind.But by August 1998, when they were together again at the Bush family house in Kennebunkport, Maine, that had changed.

1995年，賴斯在得克薩斯州拜訪老布什時第一次和喬治.W.布什見面。那時他們之間的話題大多集中在共同的愛好——運動上。其時布什當選得克薩斯州州長剛剛一年，尚未考慮過外交政策，更沒考慮過當總統(tǒng)。但是，到了1998年8月，當他們在緬因州肯納邦克波特布什家族的私宅再次見面時，情況發(fā)生了變化。

“ In between tennis games and going out on the boat and sitting out on the back porch we would have conversations about what foreign policy challenges would face the next president,” Rice said last week in an interview.As Rice ran on the treadmill20 and Bush worked out on a glider21, the college professor began a two-year tutorial22 of her most important student yet. Bush has said that he likes Rice because she explains issues in a way he can understand.

賴斯在上周的一次采訪中說：“我們在打網球的間隙，乘船外出或者坐在走廊的時候，談論的是下任總統(tǒng)在外交政策上可能會遇到什么挑戰(zhàn)�！碑斮囁乖谂懿綑C上鍛煉和布什玩滑翔機的時候，這位大學教授開始了對她最重要的一位學生為期兩年的授課。布什曾經說過，他喜歡賴斯的原因是她能用讓自己理解的方式解釋問題。

When George Bush was elected president in 1988, Scowcroft became national security adviser and recruited23 Rice, who had impressed him with her knowledge of arms control.She was never a top tier policy aide in the White House, but her timing was perfect.

1988年喬治.布什當選總統(tǒng)，被任命為國家安全顧問的斯考克羅夫特把賴斯招至麾下，就在于賴斯在軍控問題上的知識給他留下了深刻印象。賴斯在白宮一直都不是最高層的政策助手，但是她的機遇棒極了。隨著柏林墻倒塌和蘇聯解體，她就成了制訂美國政策的小組成員之一。 The Berlin Wall collapsed, the Soviet Union was crumbling, and she was part of team that developed U.S.policy.Burned out24 after two years in Washington,she returned to Stanford.Within a year, she was elevated25 to provost26 the No.2 job at Stanford although she never been a department head or dean.

在華盛頓埋頭苦干了兩年之后，賴斯回到了斯坦福大學。雖然此前連部門負責人或系主任都沒當過，但她在一年之內就升任學校的第二把手──教務長的位置。

Now, as Rice becomes the first woman to head the National Security Council, there's some concern that she was too far removed from international affairs as she was focused on university affairs. “ One critique27 you'll hear is that the Russia she knows is the Soviet Union of 10 or 12 years ago,” said Andrew Kuchins, who worked with Rice at Stanford and is now at the Carnegie Endowment28 for International Peace. And even if she is an expert on Russia and Eastern Europe, what about the Middle East, China and Latin America? Rice responds that every scholar has to specialize in something.

現在，賴斯成為領導國家安全委員會的第一位女性。但是有些人擔心她會由于一直專注于大學里的事務而對國際形勢疏于了解�，F供職于卡耐基國際和平基金會、曾與賴斯在斯坦福一起共過事的安德魯.庫欽斯說：“你會聽到有人指責賴斯，說她知道的俄羅斯是10年至12年前的蘇聯�！痹僬�，即使她諳熟俄國與東歐事務，那對諸如中東、中國和拉美等問題又如何呢？賴斯的回答是，每個學者都必須有所專長。

Another challenge: Making her voice heard above Colin Powell, nominated to be secretary of state, and Vice President-elect Chency, strong personalities who might wind up29 battling one

another.Kuchins is betting she will exceed expectations again. “ She's a strong personality and she should never be underestimated,” he said. “ Whether she's sitting in a room with Dick Cheney or Colin Powell, Condi will her own.”

另一個挑戰(zhàn)是：賴斯要在已被提名為國務卿的科林.鮑威爾和新當選副總統(tǒng)切尼面前建立自己的威信。這兩個人的個性很強，很有可能會以一個又一個的爭執(zhí)收場。庫欽斯打賭說，賴斯的表現會再次出人意料。他說：“她是個有顯明個性的人，絕不可低估。無論是與迪克.切尼還是與科林?鮑威爾共事，康迪都將擁有自己的一席之地�！�
