第三十四天:WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY 有志者事竟成
The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.
It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.
成功的要訣不是金錢(qián)而是一個(gè)堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志(用not so mush... as)。一個(gè)大人物是一個(gè)具有堅(jiān)強(qiáng)意志和不屈不撓精神的人。換句話說(shuō),如果一個(gè)人沒(méi)有堅(jiān)強(qiáng)意志去獲得最后勝利的人,他終其一生永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)成功。他只不過(guò)是(用no more than)一個(gè)失敗者。很顯明的世界上并沒(méi)有難事。如果你下定決心去做它,你一定會(huì)達(dá)到目的。那是顯而易見(jiàn)的。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十五天:DUTIES OF A STUDENT 學(xué)生的責(zé)任
Education is the very thing that we want to receive. Our parents send us to school so as to enable us to get (obtain) knowledge and achieve great things in the future. The following are the duties of a student (which) we should keep in mind.
In the first place, we should be filial to our parents and respectful to our teacher.
In the second place, we have to (must )study as hard as we can.In the third place, we must not tell lies.
Last of all, we must not criticize others.To sum up, the above-mentioned rules are the very duties of a student.
教育就是我們要接受的東西。我們父母送我們上學(xué)以便能使人們獲得知識(shí)與將來(lái)成大事。下面是我們應(yīng)該記住的學(xué)生的責(zé)任。我們應(yīng)對(duì)父母要孝順,對(duì)老師要尊敬。我們要盡可能的用功讀書(shū)。我們切不可說(shuō)謊。最后,我們不要批評(píng)別人。
總而言之,上面所說(shuō)的規(guī)則就是我們應(yīng)盡的責(zé)任。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十六天:TO BE PATIENT 要忍耐
When someone disagrees with you or offends you, don’t lose your temper. Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to (should) be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until (till) the final victory belongs to you.
當(dāng)有人和你意見(jiàn)不同或開(kāi)罪你的時(shí)候,你切不可發(fā)脾氣。為什么?因?yàn)檫@樣做是無(wú)用的(用of no use)。你應(yīng)當(dāng)忍耐并且保持冷靜,唯恐和他爭(zhēng)吵。你必須知道忍耐不是弱而是一種美德。我希望人人都實(shí)行它。另外,忍耐也會(huì)帶給我們成功。當(dāng)你在工作中遭遇到困難的時(shí)候,灰心是無(wú)用的。你必須繼續(xù)作戰(zhàn)直到最后勝利屬于你為止。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十七天:SANITARY WAYS IN SUMMER 夏天的衛(wèi)生方法
Not only is summer a hot season but also diseases are apt to happen. To us it is neither comfortable nor safe.
If we do not wish to get sick, we must pay attention to the following sanitary ways in summer.Both fresh air and clean food are indispensable to us.We must try our best to get (obtain) them.We should take at least one bath every day.Don’t wear dirty clothes.In conclusion, if we can carry out the above mentioned rules, we will neither get (take/fall) sick nor suffer pain.
夏天不僅是個(gè)炎熱的季節(jié),而且疾病也容易發(fā)生。它對(duì)我們既不舒適也不安全。我們希望不生病,就得注意下面那些夏天衛(wèi)生的方法。新鮮空
氣和干凈的食物兩者對(duì)我們是不可缺少的。我們必須盡全力去獲得它們。我們每天至少應(yīng)當(dāng)洗一個(gè)澡。不要穿臟衣服。總而言之,如果我們能實(shí)行上面所說(shuō)的那些規(guī)則,我們既不會(huì)生病也不會(huì)吃苦。
第三十八天:WORK WHILE YOU WORK, PLAY WHILE YOU PLAY 工作時(shí)工作,游玩時(shí)游玩
Both work and play are necessary to us; the former gives us knowledge while the latter (gives) rest. An English proverb is well said: “Work while you work play while you play.” It makes our life pleasant, efficient and successful.Work is one thing and play is another. It is of course not good to work all day long. However, it is also not good to play all day long. While you work, you should work in earnest. Then while you play, you will feel more relaxed and pleasant. That goes without saying.
工作和游玩兩者對(duì)我們都是必須的,前者給我們知識(shí),后者給我們休息。英諺說(shuō)得好“工作時(shí)工作,游玩時(shí)游玩”。它使我們的生活愉快,有效率以及成功。工作是一回事,游玩又是另一回事。整日工作自然不好。然而,整天游玩也是不好。當(dāng)你工作時(shí),你應(yīng)認(rèn)真工作。那末當(dāng)你游
玩時(shí),你會(huì)覺(jué)得比較輕松愉快。那是不需說(shuō)的。
第三十九天:MY FAVORITE PASTIME 我心愛(ài)的消遣
It goes without saying that work without rest will do harm to health. In other words, we had better take sufficient recreation to relax after work.
There is no doubt that there are a number of amusements, such as playing ball games, collecting stamps, fishing, gardening, skating and so on.
As for (to) me, I take great delight in gardening. Whenever I am at leisure, I am accustomed to growing flowers. I regard them as my most agreeable companion.
不需說(shuō),工作而不休息會(huì)對(duì)健康有害的。換句話說(shuō),我們最好工作后,從事分的消遣來(lái)輕松一下。
無(wú)疑的,消遣的種類很多,諸如打球,集郵,釣魚(yú),園藝,溜冰等等。
就我而言,我大大喜歡園藝。每當(dāng)我有閑暇的時(shí)候,我習(xí)慣于種花。我把它們看作是我最稱心如意的伴侶。
第四十天:FACTORS OF SUCCESS 成功要素
I would rather suffer hardships than fail. In other words, to achieve success is my only desire. We all know that there are many factors of success. Now let me write down the most important ones in the following.
Diligence—Foolish as a person is, he can succeed in his work if he works hard. That does not admit of any doubt.
Perseverance—When you fail, don’t lose heart. Keep on working until you accomplish your aim.
Honesty—If you tell lies or does not keep your words, no one will rely on you. I would rather be scolded than cheat (others).
我寧愿受苦難不愿失敗。換句話說(shuō),獲致成功是我唯一的愿望。我們大家知道成功要素很多?,F(xiàn)在讓我們把它們最重要的寫(xiě)在下面。勤勉――一個(gè)人雖然不大聰明,但是他地能做成他的工作,如果他苦干的話。那是不容置疑的。
毅力――當(dāng)你失敗的時(shí)候,不要灰心。要繼續(xù)工作,直到你達(dá)到目的為止。
誠(chéng)實(shí)――如果你說(shuō)謊或不守信,沒(méi)有人會(huì)信賴你。我寧愿挨罵不愿欺騙人。
第四十一天:MY AIM 我的志向
Whatever a man’s status is (may be), he must have an aim. If not, he can hardly stand on his own two feet in the world. That stands to reason.However important fame and wealth may be, we must not let them become our object in life. We should aim at doing something useful to the society.If my aim can come true, I hope (wish) to be a teacher. However, teaching is by no means an easy thing. I must apply myself closely to my studies so as to be able to cope with my duties (as a teacher).
不論人是什么身份,他必須有一個(gè)志向。如果沒(méi)有的話,他很難立足于世上。那是顯而易見(jiàn)的。
不論名利如何重要,我們切不可讓它們成為我們生活之目標(biāo)。我們應(yīng)當(dāng)志在做一些對(duì)社會(huì)有益的事情。
如果我的志向能實(shí)現(xiàn)的話,我就希望成為一個(gè)老師。然而,教書(shū)并不是一容易的事情。我必須專心學(xué)業(yè)以便能應(yīng)因我的職責(zé)。--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十二天:OUR NATIONAL FATHER 我們的國(guó)父
There is no doubt that Dr. Sun Yat-Sen is the greatest man that I ever known in my whole life. He set up the Republic of China, so we call him our National Father.
He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. His aim was to liberate China from the hands of the Manchu Dynasty. He had not met with result, but he was not discouraged at all. As a result, he accomplished his end in the long run.
To sum up, his strong will and indomitable spirit are worth our worship and imitation (are worth our worshiping and imitating).
無(wú)疑的,中山先生是我一生知道的最大的人物。他建立中華民國(guó),所以我他為我的國(guó)父。
他致力革命凡四十年。他的目的是清朝手里解放中國(guó)。他曾遭遇屢次的失敗,但他卻一點(diǎn)也不灰心。那是不需說(shuō)的。結(jié)果,他終于達(dá)到目的??偠灾?,他堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志和不屈不撓的精神(是)值得我們的崇拜和仿效。 ____________________________________________________
『三最背誦短文(1)-我最喜歡的運(yùn)動(dòng)』
My favorite Sports
During my secondary school years I often liked to go to the recreation room to play table tennis. Some of my classmates were very good at this game and I often tried to compete with them to improve my skill. In high school I spent many hours playing outdoor sports. I enjoyed team sports like basketball and volleyball. In my senior year I started to practice tennis. Sometimes I would find a partner to play tennis with me, but as yet I am not very good at this sport. Tennis requires great strength in the arms and legs as well as strong concentration on the game.
我最喜歡的運(yùn)動(dòng)
在我讀中學(xué)的日子里,我常到活動(dòng)室打乒乓球。我有些同學(xué)精于此道,我常與他們對(duì)抗以提高自己的技術(shù)。讀高中時(shí),我把大量的時(shí)間用來(lái)做戶外運(yùn)動(dòng),我喜歡團(tuán)隊(duì)的運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目,比如籃球和排球。臨畢業(yè)那年,我開(kāi)始練乒乓球。有時(shí)我可以找到一個(gè)同伴陪我打,但是我打得不是很好。打乒乓球不僅需要強(qiáng)壯的臂力和腿部力量,還需要集中精力。
『三最背誦短文(2)-遵守交通規(guī)則』
Obeying the Traffic Laws
I am often very afraid to cross-large wide streets. I always go to the traffic light and use the crosswalk, but many times I have been frightened. When the light changes to green I still need to look both directions to check the traffic. On many occasions a speeding motorcycle or bicycle or once a truck drove past the red light and across the pedestrian's path. When I have my bicycle, I get off and walk across the street, but always someone crosses the red light. Once at the intersection near the shopping mall I saw an accident: a taxi had stopped for the light, and another truck came from behind and did not stop. For safety, it is very important for everyone to obey the traffic laws.
遵守交通規(guī)則
橫過(guò)大寬?cǎi)R路時(shí),我常會(huì)害怕。我總是看著信號(hào)燈,走人行橫道。僅管這樣,我還是被嚇著了幾次。當(dāng)信號(hào)燈換成綠燈時(shí),我還是要朝兩邊看一下。很多時(shí)候,超速行駛的摩托車(chē)或自行車(chē)甚至是卡車(chē),都闖紅燈穿過(guò)人行橫道。當(dāng)我騎車(chē)時(shí),我就會(huì)下來(lái),推著車(chē)子步行過(guò)馬路, 但總有人闖紅燈。一次,在靠近購(gòu)物廣場(chǎng)的那個(gè)十字路口,我見(jiàn)到了一起交通事故:一輛出租車(chē)停在那兒等紅燈,但是它后面的卡車(chē)沒(méi)停。所以,從安全計(jì),每個(gè)人都遵守交通規(guī)則是很重要的。
『三最背誦短文(3)-冬天』
Winter
Winter is very cold and windy in most parts of China. I usually look forward to the Spring Festival and the winter holiday when I can go to the south where the climate is warmer during these holidays. Also, I look forward to seeing my grandparents and my friends. Winter is the time everyone is in a festive mood. In the city, I usually do a lot of reading at home in the winter because of eh cold weather outside.
冬天
中國(guó)大部分地區(qū)的冬天是即冷又有風(fēng)的。我總是盼望著春節(jié)或寒假,到時(shí)候我就可以去南方了,當(dāng)?shù)氐臍夂蛟谶@時(shí)會(huì)暖和的多。我也盼望著去探望我的祖父母和我的朋友。冬天,每個(gè)人都懷著喜慶的心情。在城里,冬天的時(shí)候我經(jīng)常待在家里盡情地看書(shū),因?yàn)橥饷娴奶鞖夥浅5睦洹?/span>
『三最背誦短文(4)-秋天』
Autumn
For me the autumn or fall starts in September when school starts its new term. I usually do some shopping. The mild weather made it very nice to study outside under the trees in a small park close to my house. I like to look up the leaves changing colors from green to red and yellow, and then brown colors. The park also has many bright fall flowers; sometimes I see a small squirrel coming down from the tree to hunt for food on the ground. On the weekends, I sometimes like to fly my kite. Usually on the street corners you can see street peddlers selling warm baked sweet potatoes. This is a nice time of the year.
秋天
我覺(jué)得秋天是在9月份新學(xué)期幵始的時(shí)候來(lái)臨.我常常要去買(mǎi)一些東西.宜人的天氣讓我感覺(jué)在離家不遠(yuǎn)的小公園的樹(shù)下學(xué)習(xí)是件非常愜意的事.我喜歡抬起頭看蓍枝頭上的樹(shù)葉由綠變紅,變黃,然后再變褐.公園里還有許多鮮艷的秋花.有時(shí)我會(huì)見(jiàn)到小松鼠從樹(shù)上跳到地上覓食.在周末,我有時(shí)會(huì)去放風(fēng)箏.在街頭的拐角處,常常會(huì)有街頭小販在賣(mài)烤紅薯.秋天是一年中的好時(shí)節(jié).
『三最背誦短文(5)-夏天』
Summer
Summer is the great season for all sports in the open air. It is the season for football which is often called the national sport because of its popularity. I usually watch television and read the newspaper reports about the football results of the little leagues. During the summer I like to go to the beach often because it is very close to my home. I usually go there during the summer vacation to relax after many months in school in the city. I feel very comfortable with the familiar quiet life of the villagers.
夏天
夏天是戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)最好的季節(jié).這是一個(gè)橄欖球的季節(jié),橄欖球由于廣受歡迎被稱為全民運(yùn)動(dòng).我常常看電視,看報(bào)紙,從報(bào)道中獲得小聯(lián)盟橄欖球賽的比賽結(jié)果.夏日里,我喜歡經(jīng)常去海灘,因?yàn)槟抢镫x我家不遠(yuǎn).在城里的學(xué)校呆了幾個(gè)月后,暑假我常常去那里放松一下.此處有我很熟悉的村民們的寧?kù)o生活,這讓我倍感舒適.
『三最背誦短文(6)-春天』
Spring
Spring is a delightful season. The temperatures are moderate, and the blooming trees and flowers make the city bright with colors. This is the time when we can begin to wear lighter and more brightly colored clothes and go outdoors more often. Smaller children like to bring their kites out to the spacious square. Also I enjoy going back to the village on this holiday after being in the city for the winter months.
春天
春天是個(gè)讓人欣喜的季節(jié).氣溫適中,掛滿綠葉的樹(shù)和盛開(kāi)的花朵給城市增添了明亮的色彩.在這個(gè)時(shí)節(jié)里,我們可以穿上輕便靚麗的衣服經(jīng)常出門(mén)去了.小孩子們則喜歡在廣闊的天空中放風(fēng)箏.在城里呆了一個(gè)冬天之后,我也喜歡回到村子里度假.
『三最背誦短文(7)-今日青年』
A Youth and His Country
The youth of today will help to shape the future of his country tomorrow. As a good citizen, he should prepare himself in his everyday life as well as in school for the contribution of his talent to his country. He should have ability or skill to work. He should keep well informed and help to inform others about what his country's problems are. He should try to find out and show what he can do for his country. Also he should be physically strong and mentally sound. As a responsible citizen, with his courage, enthusiasm, and love, he will help to make his country one of which all its citizens can be proud.
今日青年
今日的青年將肩負(fù)他們國(guó)家的未來(lái)。作為一個(gè)好公民,他應(yīng)該在日常生活中和在學(xué)校時(shí)一樣準(zhǔn)備著把自己的聰明才智貢獻(xiàn)給國(guó)家。他應(yīng)有一定工作能力和技能,他應(yīng)該清楚的知道,并且?guī)椭鷦e人了解他們國(guó)家的問(wèn)題所在。他應(yīng)該知道且顯示他能夠?yàn)樗膰?guó)家做些什么。同時(shí)他應(yīng)該有強(qiáng)健的體魄和良好的精神狀態(tài)。作為一個(gè)有責(zé)任感的公民,他將會(huì)用他的勇氣、熱情和愛(ài)心使他的國(guó)家成為全民都為之自豪的國(guó)度。
『三最背誦短文(8)-我的朋友』
My Friend
John is the most diligent student in our class. He is one of my friends. As a matter of fact, he gets along with his classmates. He might spend just five to ten minutes talking to you once in a long while, but he talks with enthusiasm and energy, and he likes to share his thinking and ideas with you. He is honest; he does not like to waste his time and energy. He never appears sleepy and tired in the classroom. He always hands in homework on time and also does well in his examinations, yet he has time practicing playing football and his violin skill. I admire him. I hope I can be as diligent as he is; John is persistent, attentive, and energetic.
我的朋友
John是我們班上最勤奮的學(xué)生。他也是我的一個(gè)朋友。實(shí)際上,他和班上的同學(xué)相處的都很融洽。也許過(guò)好長(zhǎng)時(shí)間他才只是花5分鐘或10分鐘和你聊天,但是他的談話充滿了活力和熱情,而且他喜歡和你分享他的思想和想法。他是誠(chéng)實(shí)的,他不會(huì)無(wú)謂的浪費(fèi)他的時(shí)間和精力。在教室里,他從沒(méi)有顯得困倦或是疲憊。他常常會(huì)按時(shí)交作業(yè),考試中也會(huì)取得好成績(jī),然而他仍會(huì)有時(shí)間踢足球和練小提琴。我羨慕他,我希望自己
能象他那樣勤奮。John是個(gè)執(zhí)著、專注、充滿活力的人。
『三最背誦短文(9)-長(zhǎng)大后你想干什么?』
What do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?
This question and another similar question, "Have you decided what you will do after you finish school?" were among the most common questions people often asked me when I was a small child and then a student in school. Choosing the right career is very important. For this reason we should try to find out what our talents and interests are and how we can use them. There are many careers open to each of us. Many persons find their place in government service, and many others may be interested in going into the business world. Teaching, newspaper works, medicine, engineering, science -- these and many other fields offer fascinating careers to persons with talent and training.
長(zhǎng)大后你想干什么?
這個(gè)問(wèn)題和另一個(gè)相似的問(wèn)題"你決定完成學(xué)業(yè)之后做什幺了嗎?"是我小時(shí)候和在學(xué)校時(shí)人們問(wèn)得最多的一個(gè)問(wèn)題。選擇一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)穆殬I(yè)是非常重要的。因此,我們必需找出自己的天賦和興趣所在并且要知道如何加以利用。我們每個(gè)人都面臨著許多職業(yè)選擇。一些人在政府機(jī)構(gòu)找到了他們的位置,而另一些人則可能喜歡在商界馳騁。教育、新聞、醫(yī)藥、工程、科學(xué)等和其它許多行業(yè)給都有才能的人提供了豐富的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。
『三最背誦短文(10)-我的職業(yè)生涯』
My Career Plan
During my high school years, I have found chemistry, physics, and mathematics interesting. Actually, I am interested in many subjects such as history, and English. But somehow I cannot remember the historical events or the facts in detail. I cannot remember English words well, either. On the other hand, chemistry, physics, and mathematics are easy for me because they seem logical to me. After considering my interests and talents I feel that science or engineering might be the best choice for my career. I would like to study science or engineering in college. After graduation from college I hop to go for higher education overseas. Eventually I would like to return to school to teach. This is my career plan.
我的職業(yè)生涯
在我高中的時(shí)代,我發(fā)現(xiàn)我對(duì)化學(xué)、物理和數(shù)學(xué)很感興趣。事實(shí)上,我覺(jué)得其他的學(xué)科也很有吸引力,如:歷史、英語(yǔ)。但是不知何故我不能詳細(xì)記住歷史事件,也不能很好地記住英語(yǔ)單詞。相反,化學(xué)、物理和數(shù)學(xué)卻容易些因?yàn)樗鼈冇羞壿嬓浴hb于我的興趣所致我感覺(jué)到理科或者工科是我未來(lái)職業(yè)的最好選擇。我更愿意在大學(xué)里學(xué)理科或工科。大學(xué)畢業(yè)后我希望到海外去繼續(xù)深造。最后我將回到學(xué)校教書(shū)。這就是我的事業(yè)規(guī)劃。
『三最背誦短文(11)-明智的消費(fèi)』
Intelligent Consumerism
Wise consumers read magazine advertisements and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? Is this product more expensive than it should be because it has a famous name? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice. 明智的消費(fèi)
聰明的消費(fèi)者看雜志廣告,看電視廣告,但他們這么做只有一個(gè)目的,就是要了解藏在廣告背后的心理狀態(tài)。換句話說(shuō),信息靈通的消費(fèi)者會(huì)留心各種資訊,也會(huì)查證各種有誤導(dǎo)作用的謠傳。他們會(huì)問(wèn)自己:廣告商是不是在邊角的小字里藏著點(diǎn)什么?廣告里是否有真實(shí)內(nèi)容,或者廣告商純粹只提供誘人的畫(huà)面?是否因?yàn)槭敲?,產(chǎn)品就賣(mài)得更貴?這些答案會(huì)幫助消費(fèi)者做出明智的選擇。
