1、優(yōu)秀的英語簡單的美文欣賞【篇一】優(yōu)秀的英語簡單的美文欣賞Money will NEVER solve your real problems錢不能解決你的實際問題Money is a tool; a commodity that buys you necessities and some nice “wants,” but it is not the panacea to your problems. There are a great many people who are living on very little, yet have wonderfully full and happy l

2、ives and there are sadly a great many people are living on quite a lot, yet have terribly miserable lives.金錢僅僅個工具，能買到生活所需和一些不錯的“必需品”，但不是解決你問題的萬能藥。有很多人雖然沒有很多錢，但仍然過著充實愉快的生活，相反，有些人十分富有，卻活得并不幸福。Money can buy a nice home, a great car, fabulous shoes, even a bit of security and some creature comforts, but

3、 it cannot fix a broken relationship, or cure loneliness, and the “happiness” it brings is only fleeting and not the kind that really and truly matters. Happiness is not for sale. If youre expecting the “stuff” you can buy to “make it better,” you will never be happy.錢能買來好房子、好車子、漂亮的鞋子，以及一些安全感和舒適度，但卻

4、無法修復(fù)一段破碎的關(guān)系，無法治愈孤獨，它所帶來的幸福感轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝也并不實在。幸福不能靠錢來買。如果你總是希望考買什么來獲得幸福，你永遠都不會幸福。Pace yourself放慢腳步Often when were young, just beginning our adult journey we feel as though we have to do everything at once. We need to decide everything, plan out our lives, experience everything, get to the top, find true love

5、, figure out our lifes purpose, and do it all at the same time.年輕的時候，我們總覺得成人之路剛剛開始，總想一次把所有事都完成。我們需要為所有事作出決定，實行人生規(guī)劃，體驗所有的事情，達到頂峰，找到真愛，發(fā)現(xiàn)我們?nèi)松哪繕?，所有的都同時完成。Slow downdont rush into things. Let your life unfold. Wait a bit to see where it takes you, and take time to weigh your options. Enjoy every bite of

6、 food, take time to look around you, let the other person finish their side of the conversation. Allow yourself time to think, to mull a bit. Taking action is critical. Working towards your goals and making plans for the future is commendable and often very useful, but rushing full-speed ahead towar

7、ds anything is a one-way ticket to burnout and a good way to miss your life as it passes you by.慢點吧，別太著急。慢慢開始自己的生活，等等看看自己到了什么地方，花點時間去衡量一下自己的選擇。享受每一口食物，花點時間看看周圍，讓別人完成他們的傾訴。給自己點時間去思考和沉思。行動是十分關(guān)鍵的。朝著你的目標前進，為未來做出規(guī)劃的確很值得有用，但全速前進似乎是張單程票，讓你無法回頭，還會讓你錯失路邊的風(fēng)景。You cant please everyone你無法取悅每個人“I dont know the se

8、cret to success, but the secret to failure is trying to please everyone” Bill Cosby我不知道成功的秘訣是什么，我只知道失敗的秘訣是去討好每個人比爾科斯比You dont need everyone to agree with you or even like you. Its human nature to want to belong, to be liked, respected and valued, but not at the expense of your integrity and happines

9、s. Other people cannot give you the validation you seek. That has to come from inside. Speak up, stick to your guns, assert yourself when you need to, demand respect, stay true to your values.你不需要讓所有人都贊同抑或喜歡你。希望獲得認可、喜歡、尊重和重視，這是人之常情，但別以犧牲你的正直和幸福為代價。你在追尋的肯定感，其他人給不了，這需要來自你的內(nèi)心。大聲說出來，堅持自己的想法，必要時捍衛(wèi)自己的立場，要

10、求得到尊重，忠于自己的價值觀。Your health is your most valuable asset健康是最寶貴的財富Health is an invaluable treasurealways appreciate, nurture, and protect it. Good health is often wasted on the young before they have a chance to appreciate it for what its worth. We tend to take our good health for granted, because its

11、just there. We dont have to worry about it, so we dont really pay attention to it until we have to. Heart disease, bone density, stroke, many cancersthe list of many largely preventable diseases is long, so take care of your health now, or youll regret it later on.健康是無價之寶要一直重視、呵護和保護它。年輕人往往在最值得呵護健康的年

12、紀大肆揮霍，我們把健康當成理所當然的一件事，因為它就在那里。我們不想要擔(dān)心，所以也從未真正注重過它，直到健康出現(xiàn)問題。心臟病、骨質(zhì)疏松、哮喘和癌癥這個清單很長，這些病實際上也都是能夠預(yù)防的，所以好好呵護自己的健康吧，免得以后后悔。You dont always get what you want你不可能一直得到自己想要的東西“Life is what happens while youre busy making other plans.” John Lennon當我們正在為生活疲于奔命時，生活已離我們而去。約翰列儂No matter how carefully you plan and ho

13、w hard you work, sometimes things just dont work out the way you want them to and thats ok. We have all of these expectations; predetermined visions of what our “ideal” life will look like, but all too often, thats not the reality of the life we end up with. Sometimes our dreams fail and sometimes w

14、e just change our minds mid-course. Sometimes we have to flop to find the right course and sometimes we just have to try a few things before we find the right direction.無論你多么仔細的規(guī)劃和努力，有時候事情總是不按照你的計劃發(fā)展，沒關(guān)系，我們都有些許期待，對理想的生活有一定的設(shè)想，但這并不是我們真正的生活。也許有時我們的夢想無法實現(xiàn)，或是中途改變了想法。有時我們不得不放棄而去追求準確的事物，而有時我們需要在找到準確方向時經(jīng)歷其

15、他的東西。Its not all about you世界不是圍著你轉(zhuǎn)的You are not the epicenter of the universe. Its very difficult to view the world from a perspective outside of your own, since we are always so focused on whats happening in our own lives. What do I have to do today? What will this mean for me, for my career, for my

16、 life? What do I want? Its normal to be intensely aware of everything thats going on in your own life, but you need to pay as much attention to whats happening around you, and how things affect other people in the world as you do to your own life. It helps to keep things in perspective.你不是宇宙的核心。的確用你

17、以外的視角來看世界有點難，我們都太過于專注自己生活里的一切，我今天需要干什么?這對我、我的工作和生活又意味著什么?我想要什么?對自己生活中發(fā)生的一切了如指掌無可厚非，但你也需要關(guān)心周圍發(fā)生了什么，你生活中類似的事情又是如何影響到你周圍的人的。這樣會讓你看待事物更加客觀。Theres no shame in not knowing不知為不知No one has it all figured out. Nobody has all the answers. Theres no shame in saying “I dont know.” Pretending to be perfect doesn

18、t make you perfect. It just makes you neurotic to keep up the pretense of manufactured perfection. We have this idea that there is some kind of stigma or shame in admitting our limitations or uncertainly, but we cant possibly know everything. We all make mistakes and mess up occasionally. We learn a

19、s we go, thats life. Besidesnobody likes a know-it-all. A little vulnerability makes you human and oh so much more relatable.沒有人知曉所有事，沒有人知道所有問題的答案。所以說不知道根本不是什么丟臉的事。裝著完美只會讓你不完美。還會讓你看上去像一個神經(jīng)過敏的偽完美藝術(shù)品罷了。我們必須知道，有時需要承認我們的無知和不確定，我們不可能知道所有的事情。我們都會犯錯，還會弄砸一些事情。邊走邊學(xué)，這就是人生。再說了，沒有人喜歡萬事通。一些無知反而能讓你更加人性化，更易接近哦。Lov

20、e is more than a feeling; its a choice愛不但僅是感覺，而是選擇That burst of initial exhilaration, pulse quickening love and passion does not last long. But that doesnt mean long-lasting love is not possible. Love is not just a feeling; its a choice that you make every day. We have to choose to let annoyances pa

21、ss, to forgive, to be kind, to respect, to support, to be faithful. Relationships take work. Sometimes its easy and sometimes its incredibly hard, but it is up to us to choose how we want to act, think and speak in a relationship.迸發(fā)的愉悅，讓你心跳加快的愛情和激情都無法持久，但這并不是說長久的愛情并不存有。愛與感覺無關(guān)，是一個你每天都需要做的選擇。我們需要選擇忘記煩

22、惱，去原諒，去友善、尊敬、支持以及忠貞。感情需要經(jīng)營，有時很容易有時似乎無比艱難。這都取決于我們自己的選擇，到底想在這段感情中如何表現(xiàn)、思考和說話。Perspective is a beautiful thing遠見很美妙Typically, when were worried or upset, its because weve lost perspective. Everything that is happening in our lives seems so big, so important, so do or die, but in the grand picture, this

23、single hiccup often means next to nothing. The fight were having, the job we didnt get, the real or imagined slight, the unexpected need to shift course, the thing we wanted, but didnt get. Most of it wont matter 20, 30, 40 years from now. Its hard to see long term when all you know is short term, b

24、ut unless its life-threatening, let it go, and move on.往往失去遠見時，我們就會變得焦慮和低落。我們生活里發(fā)生的每件事都那么重大那么重要，不做好就會死，但長遠來看，這個件小事似乎根本就微不足道。我們經(jīng)歷的沖突，沒有得到的工作，或有或無的輕蔑，突如其來的改變航向，我們想要卻沒有得到的東西。20、30、40年之后，絕大部分都會變得微不足道。當你的眼光只放在近期，那么很難去看得長遠。所以除非是威脅到生命的事情，否則其他的就放下吧，繼續(xù)前進。Dont take anything for granted別把任何事當做理所當然We often dont

25、 appreciate what we have until its gone： that includes your health, your family and friends, your job, the money you have or think you will have tomorrow. When youre young, it seems that your parents will always be there, but they wont. You think you have plenty of time to get back in touch with you

26、r old friends or spend time with new ones, but you dont. You have the money to spend, or you think youll have it next month, but you might not. Nothing in your life is not guaranteed to be there tomorrow, including those you love.很多東西直到失去我們才會懂得珍惜，這包括健康、家人和朋友、工作，現(xiàn)有或未來會有的金錢。年輕的時候，父母一直在身邊，但他們不能一直陪伴下去;你

27、總覺得有充足的時間，和老朋友們保持聯(lián)系或是花時間和新朋友玩樂，但實際并沒有;你有錢花，然后覺得下個月也會有錢花，其實也許沒有。你生活中所有的事情明天都不一定還存有著，包括那些你愛的。This is a hard life lesson to learn, but it may be the most important of all： Life can change in an instant. Make sure you appreciate what you have, while you still have it.這些人生課很難學(xué)習(xí)，但卻是至關(guān)重要的：生活能夠瞬間萬變。只要好好珍惜現(xiàn)在

28、所擁有的就充足了?！酒績?yōu)秀的英語簡單的美文欣賞A friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question, “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?” Her question was agood one. It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster

29、： life isnt fair. Its a disappointment, but its absolutely true. One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. Its not and it wont be.One of the nice things about surrendering to the fact that li

30、fe isnt fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have. We know its not “l(fā)ifes job”to make everything perfect： its our own challenge. Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminde

31、d that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel unfairly treated.The fact that life isnt fair doesnt mean we shouldnt do everything in our power to

32、 improve our own lives or the world as a whole. To the contrary, it suggests that we should. When we dont recognize or admit that life isnt fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. Pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel

33、 worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isnt fair, however, we feel compassion for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try

34、 reminding yourself of this very basic fact. Youmay be surprised that it can make you out of self-pity and into helpful action.【篇三】優(yōu)秀的英語簡單的美文欣賞Congratulations, Mr. Jones, its a girl.Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words.
