• 天使降落在人间

    2008-08-19 10:11:11

     Consider...YOU. In all time before now and in all time to come, there has never been and will never be anyone just like you. You are unique in the entire history and future of the universe. Wow! Stop and think about that. You're better than one in a million, or a billion, or a gazillion...

      试想一下……你!一个空前绝后的你,不论是以往还是将来都不会有一个跟你一模一样的人。你在历史上和宇宙中都是独一无二的。哇!想想吧,你是万里挑一、亿里挑一、兆里挑一的。

      You are the only one like you in a sea of infinity!

      在无穷无尽的宇宙中,你是举世无双的!!!

      You're amazing! You're awesome! And by the way, TAG, you're it. As amazing and awesome as you already are, you can be even more so. Beautiful young people are the whimsey of nature, but beautiful old people are true works of art. But you don't become "beautiful" just by virtue of the aging process.

      你是了不起的!你是卓越的!没错,就是你。你已经是了不起的,是卓越的,你还可以更卓越更了不起。美丽的年轻人是大自然的奇想,而美丽的老人却是艺术的杰作。但你不会因为年龄的渐长就自然而然地变得“美丽”。

      Real beauty comes from learning, growing, and loving in the ways of life. That is the Art of Life. You can learn slowly, and sometimes painfully, by just waiting for life to happen to you. Or you can choose to accelerate your growth and intentionally devour life and all it offers. You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today.

      Paint a Masterpiece.

      真正的美丽源于生命里的学习、成长和热爱。这就是生命的艺术。你可以只听天由命, 慢慢地学,有时候或许会很痛苦。又或许你可以选择加速自己的成长,故意地挥霍生活及其提供的一切。你就是手握今日之刷描绘自己未来的艺术家。

      画出一幅杰作吧!

      God gives every bird its food, but he doesn't throw it into its nest. Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to do, it's truly up to you.

      上帝给了鸟儿食物,但他没有将食物扔到它们的巢里。不管你想要去哪里,不管你想要做什么,真正做决定的还是你自己。

      Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. So one day he asked God,"They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"

      从前,有个孩子马上就要诞生了。因此有一天他问上帝:“听说明天你就送我去人间了,但是,我这么弱小和无助,我在那儿怎么生活呢?” God replied,"Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

      上帝答道:“在众多的天使中,我特别为你挑了一位。她会守候你、无微不至地照顾你。”

      But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go."But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy."

      小孩还是拿不准自己是否真的想去。“但是在天堂,我除了唱唱笑笑外,什么也不做。这就足以让我感到幸福了。”

      "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy."

      “你的天使每天会为你唱歌,为你微笑。你会感受她的爱,并且因此而幸福。”

      "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me,"the child continued,"if I don't know the language that men talk?"

      “如果我不懂人类的语言,他们对我说话时,我怎么听得懂呢?”孩子继续问道。

      God patted him on the head and said,"Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

      上帝轻轻地拍了一下孩子的脑袋说:“你的天使会对你说最最美丽、最最动听的话语,而这些都是你从未听过的。她会不厌其烦地教你说话。”

      "And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

      “如果我想与你说话怎么办?”

      But God had an answer for that question too."Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

      上帝胸有成竹地回答:“你的天使会将你的双手合拢,教你如何祈祷。”

      "I've heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?"

      “听说尘世有很多坏蛋,谁来保护我呢?”

      "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!"

      “即使冒着生命危险,你的天使也会保护你的。”

      "But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore,"the child continued warily.

      “但是见不到你,我会难过的。”小孩小心翼翼说道。

      God smiled on the young one."Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you."

      听到这儿,上帝对着小孩笑了。“尽管我会一直陪伴你左右,你的天使仍会提起我,教你重返天堂之路。”

      At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question, softly,"Oh God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

      此时,天堂一片宁静,凡间的声音已可听到,小孩明白自己得赶紧上路了。 他又轻声问了最后一个问题,“哦,上帝,假如我现在就出发,请你告诉我,我的天使叫什么名字。”

      God touched the child on the shoulder and answered,"Your angel's name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy." 

      上帝把手放在小孩的肩上,答道:“你的天使的名字很容易记住, 你就叫她——妈妈。”

  • 每天被美国人说上千遍的两个词组(图)

    每天被美国人说上千遍的两个词组(图)
    实用俚语

      有些词汇美国人每天都要讲,而且还可能要讲上无数遍。他们在办公室里用,在饭馆里,商店里以及其他任何场合都用。有的人认为它们听起来很老调,很乏味,但今天我们偏偏就要讲其中的两个常用词组。

      1 No problem.

      No problem这个习惯用语大约是三十年前开始出现的,但是现在世界各地的人都普遍地使用这个习惯用语。Problem就是有问题,有麻烦。No problem 就是:没有问题。No problem这个说法可以用在不同场合。首先,要是有人向你提出一个要求,你认为你能够,也愿意帮忙的话,你就可以说:No problem。意思就是:行,没问题。

      比如说,你妈妈让你在天黑以前把院子打扫干净,你就可以回答说:No problem。

      例句:

      You want your car back by six o'clock, right? Hey, no problem! It'll be all fixed up and ready to go, just as good as new.

      你六点前要来拿车,是吗?嗨,没问题。到时候,一切都会修好,就像 新车一样,就等着你开走。

      当然,在现实生活中,你的车子可能过了三天还没有修好。美国一位研究语言的专家指出,当你听到对方说no problem的时候,有的情况下这意味着你的问题才刚刚开始。

      No problem也可以用在别的场合。要是你把院子打扫得很干净,你妈妈说:谢谢你,这时候你也能用no problem。在这里,no problem就是不要客气的意思。

      我们再来举一个例子看看no problem用做不要客气的时候是怎么用的。一个办公室里的电脑坏了。有一位工作人员打电话把电脑维修员请来看看有什么毛病。以下是他们的对话:

      --There's no problem here except you forgot to switch on the machine.

      --Oh, we're so sorry, but thank you for coming.

      --No problem.大家要注意,第一句话里的no problem是真正的没问题,就是说这个电脑没有毛病。而第二个no problem 是不用客气的意思。2 Have a nice day!

      Have a nice day从字面上来解释,它的意思就是:有一个好的日子。实际上,have a nice day就是祝你今天过的快乐的意思。这句话往往用于人们分手的时候,因此它也是再见的意思。这句话是三十年前那些开大卡车的司机通过无线电互相进行对话时说的。而现在,have a nice day已经成为每个人说的话,不管在哪里,商店、办公室、马路上,人们在向对方很友好地告别的时候就会说:have a nice day。

      大多数美国人对别人都很友好,即便互相不认识,他们也会对别人打个招呼。电梯里相互说个早上好,分手时说一声have a nice day。

      下面是一个人开车时超速被警察扣住。警察虽然给了他一张罚款单,最后却还是很友好地向他告别:

      Sorry, Sir, you were going 80 miles an hour so I have to give you this ticket. Send your 100 Dollars to court within 10 days or you'll be in trouble. Now, have a nice day!

      对不起,先生,你刚才的车速是一小时八十英里,所以我不得不给你一张罚款单。你在十天内寄一百美元去法庭,否则你会有麻烦的。好,祝你今天愉快。

      美国高速公路的车速一般是每小时五十英里。被罚款一百美元不是一个小数字。这一天要过的愉快恐怕不容易。但是,警察最后说一句have a nice day是一种礼貌,并非虚伪。

      下面这个例子是一个人在对他的邻居讲话。这个人一早到门口去拿报纸,看见邻居的太太拿了公事包去上班。这个人对这位太太说:

      Hi, Joan! You're leaving so early for your office? Well, I guess it's the only way to beat the traffic. Anyhow, have a nice day!

      嗨,琼!你这么早就去上班啦?是啊,我想这是避免堵车的唯一办法。祝你今天愉快!

    奥运名人堂:刘翔趣味问答大考验(图)
    飞人刘翔

      今天,13亿中国人都在关注刘翔,期待着这个奥运卫冕冠军能带给世界惊喜。然而,“飞人”却在北京奥运会田径110米栏预赛中意外因伤退出比赛。一时间全中国、乃至世界都为这个消息感到震惊。做对下面的田径类英语测试题,一起为刘翔加油!

      1: Fill the gap: Liu Xiang is most famous as a _______.

      swimmer

      sprinter

      high jumper

      hurdler

      答案是: hurdler。刘翔曾荣获2004年奥运110米跨栏金牌。

      2: Which distance is not run in the Olympics?

      50m

      100m

      200m

      400m

      答案是:50m。奥林匹克运动会不设50米短跑比赛。

      3: Fill in the gap: A relay team may be disqualified for_________.

      overtaking another competitor

      wearing improper clothes

      losing the baton

      tripping over

      答案是:losing the baton。如果丢掉接力棒,就会失去比赛资格。 overtaking another competitor:力争超过竞赛对手是天经地义的,绝对不错。wearing improper clothes:接力赛没有特别的着装规定。tripping over:跌倒没关系,爬起来继续跑就是了。 4: To be good at the long jump athletes needs to combine speed,_______ and agility in an attempt to jump as far as possible.

      strong

      strength

      stamina

      luck

      Shot put

      Long jump

      High jump

      Shot put

      Javelin

      Long jump
