学习啦在线学习网 爱的最大限度(中英)
Freda Bright says, "Only in opera do people die of love." It's true. You really can't love somebody to death. I've known people to die from no love, but I've never known anyone to be loved to death. We just can't love one another enough.
弗里达-布赖特说过:“只有在歌剧中,人们才会为爱而死。” 这是千真万确的。的确,你不会因为爱一个人而死。我知道有人因为缺乏爱而死,可我从来没有听说过谁因被爱而死。我们恰好是相互之间爱也爱不够。
A heart-warming story tells of a woman who finally decided to ask her boss for a raise in salary. All day she felt nervous and apprehensive. Late in the afternoon she summoned the courage to approach her employer. To her delight, the boss agreed to a raise.
有一个感人的故事,讲的是有个女人终于决定去向老板提出加薪的要求。她一整天都焦虑不安。下午晚些时候,她鼓起勇气向老板提议。让她感到高兴的是,老板同意给她加薪。
学习啦在线学习网 The woman arrived home that evening to a beautiful table set with their best dishes. Candles were softly glowing. Her husband had come home early and prepared a festive meal. She wondered if someone from the office had tipped him off, or... did he just somehow know that she would not get turned down?
当晚,女人回家后,发现漂亮的餐桌上已经摆满了丰盛的菜肴,烛光在轻轻地摇曳着。丈夫提早回家准备了一顿庆祝宴。她心想,会不会是办公室里有人向他通风报信了呢?或者……他不知怎么竟知道她不会被拒绝?
She found him in the kitchen and told him the good news. They embraced and kissed, then sat down to the wonderful meal. Next to her plate the woman found a beautifully lettered note. It read, "Congratulations, darling! I knew you'd get the raise! These things will tell you how much I love you."

学习啦在线学习网 Following the supper, her husband went into the kitchen to clean up. She noticed that a second card had fallen from his pocket. Picking it off the floor, she read, "Don't worry about not getting the raise! You deserve it anyway! These things will tell you how much I love you."
学习啦在线学习网 晚餐后,丈夫到厨房洗碗。她注意到又有张卡片从他口袋里掉了出来。她把卡片从地板上拣起来,念道:“不要因为没有加薪而烦恼!不管怎样,是该给你加薪了!我为你做的这一切会告诉你,我有多么爱你。”
Someone has said that the measure of love is when you love without measure. What this man feels for his spouse is total acceptance and love, whether she succeeds or fails. His love celebrates her victories and soothes her wounds. He stands with her, no matter what life throws in their direction.
有人曾经说过,爱的限度就是无限度地去爱。不管妻子成功还是失败,这个男人都给予她完全的包容和爱。他的爱庆祝她的胜利,也抚平她的创伤。不管生活的道路上遇到什么,他们始终同舟共济。

经典的感人英语文章篇二
Price of A Miracle 奇迹的代价
Tess was a precocious eight-year-old girl when she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor’s bills and our house.
听爸爸妈妈谈起小弟安德鲁的事情时,苔丝已是一个早熟的8岁小女孩。她只知道弟弟病得很厉害,父母却无钱给他医治。下个月他们要搬到一个公寓房,因为爸爸已经无力支付医药费和我们的房款。
Only a very costly surgery could save him now and it was looking like there was no-one to loan them the money. She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle can save him now.”
“现在唯一可以救他的办法就是做手术,但手术费用非常昂贵,没有人肯借钱给我们。”她听到爸爸对满含泪水的妈妈低声而绝望地说:“现在只有奇迹可以救他了。”
Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes.
学习啦在线学习网 苔丝回到房间,从壁橱一个隐藏的地方拿出一个玻璃瓶子,把里面所有的零钱倒在地上并仔细数了3次,直到确定无误。
Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall’s Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door.
她仔细地把硬币放回瓶子并把盖子拧好,悄悄地从后门溜出去,穿过六条街区,来到门上有红色印地安语大标志的Rexall药店。
She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster.
她耐心地等待着药剂师,可是药剂师非常忙,并没有注意她。苔丝扭动着她的脚弄出摩擦的声音,没有反映。她大声地清清嗓子,还是没反映。
学习啦在线学习网 No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it! “And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages, “he said without waiting for a reply to his question.”
最后,她从瓶子里拿出个2角5分的硬币摔在玻璃柜台上,弄出清脆的响声。成功了!“你需要点什么?”药剂师不耐烦地问,“我要去接我的弟弟,他从芝加哥来,我们很多年没见了。”他没等苔丝说话就接着说起来。
学习啦在线学习网 “Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”
学习啦在线学习网 “我想跟你说下我弟弟的事情。”苔丝回答,“他真的病得很严重……我想为他买个奇迹。”
“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist. “His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”
学习啦在线学习网 “你说什么?”药剂师问到,“他叫安德鲁,他病得很厉害,爸爸说现在只有奇迹能救他。所以,请问奇迹多少钱?”
“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said, softening a little.
“我们这里不卖奇迹,小女孩,很抱歉不能帮助你,”药剂师稍带温和地说。“听着,我有很多钱,如果这里的不够,我就回去取剩下的,请告诉我奇迹多少钱?”
“Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn’t enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs.” The pharmacist’s brother was a well-dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up.
学习啦在线学习网 这时候,药剂师的弟弟来了,他是个穿着很得体的男人。他问小女孩“你弟弟需要什么样的奇迹呢?”“我不知道,”苔丝的眼泪涌了上来。
“I just know he’s really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.”
“我只知道他病得非常厉害,妈妈说他需要做手术,但是爸爸支付不起手术费,所以我想用我自己的钱。”
“How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago.
“你有多少钱?”这个从芝加哥来的男人问。
学习啦在线学习网 “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered barely audibly. “And it’s all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.”
学习啦在线学习网 “一美元十一美分,”苔丝用很勉强才能听到的声音回答。“这是我所有的钱,但是如果不够的话我再想办法。”
学习啦在线学习网 “Well, what a coincidence,” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents — the exact price of a miracle for little brothers. “He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”
“刚刚好,”男人笑着说,“一美元十一美分 —— 正好可以为你弟弟买个奇迹。”他一手拿着小女孩的钱一手紧紧握住她的手说“带我去你住的地方,我想去看看你弟弟和你的父母,看看我是不是有你们需要的奇迹。”
学习啦在线学习网 That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neurosurgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place.
这个穿着光鲜的男人就是卡尔顿•阿姆斯壮,著名的神经外科医生。手术没有支付任何费用,安德鲁回家后不久就康复了。爸爸和妈妈高兴地谈论着这件事情。
学习啦在线学习网 “That surgery,” her Mom whispered, “was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?” Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost one dollar and eleven cents plus the faith of a little child.
“这个手术真的是个奇迹,奇迹到底需要多少钱呢?”母亲低声自语。苔丝笑了,她知道奇迹的真正价值:一美元十一美分,加上一个小女孩的信念。

Facing the Enemies Within
直面内在的敌人
We are not born with courage, but neither are we born with fear. Maybe some of our fears are brought on by your own experiences, by what someone has told you, by what you’ve read in the papers. Some fears are valid, like walking alone in a bad part of town at two o’clock in the morning. But once you learn to avoid that situation, you won’t need to live in fear of it.
我们的勇气并不是与生俱来的,我们的恐惧也不是。也许有些恐惧来自你的亲身经历、别人告诉你的故事、或你在报纸上读到的东西。有些恐惧可以理解,例如在凌晨两点独自走在城里不安全的地段。但是一旦你学会避免那种情况,你就不必生活在恐惧之中。
Fears, even the most basic ones, can totally destroy our ambitions. Fear can destroy fortunes. Fear can destroy relationships. Fear, if left unchecked, can destroy our lives. Fear is one of the many enemies lurking inside us.
学习啦在线学习网 恐惧,哪怕是最基本的恐惧,也可能彻底粉碎我们的抱负。恐惧可能摧毁财富,也可能摧毁一段感情。如果不加以控制,恐惧还可能摧毁我们的生活。恐惧是潜伏于我们内心的众多敌人之一。
学习啦在线学习网 Let me tell you about five of the other enemies we face from within. The first enemy that you’ve got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference. What a tragic disease this is! “Ho-hum, let it slide. I’ll just drift along.” Here’s one problem with drifting: you can’t drift your way to the to of the mountain.
让我来告诉你我们面临的其他五个内在的敌人。第一个你要在它袭击你之前将其击败的敌人是冷漠。打着哈欠说:“随它去吧,我就随波逐流吧。”这是多么可悲的疾病啊!随波逐流的问题是:你不可能漂流到山顶去。
学习啦在线学习网 The second enemy we face is indecision. Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise. It will steal your chances for a better future. Take a sword to this enemy.
我们面临的第二个敌人是优柔寡断。它是窃取机会和事业的贼,它还会偷去你实现更美好未来的机会。向这个敌人出剑吧!
The third enemy inside is doubt. Sure, there’s room for healthy skepticism. You can’t believe everything. But you also can’t let doubt take over. Many people doubt the past, doubt the future, doubt each other, doubt the government, doubt the possibilities nad doubt the opportunities. Worse of all, they doubt themselves. I’m telling you, doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success. It will empty both your bank account and your heart. Doubt is an enemy. Go after it. Get rid of it.
第三个内在的敌人是怀疑。当然,正常的怀疑还是有一席之地的,你不能相信一切。但是你也不能怀疑掌管一切。许多人怀疑过去、怀疑未来、怀疑彼此、怀疑政府、怀疑可能性,并怀疑机会。最糟糕的是,他们怀疑自己。我告诉你,怀疑会毁掉你的生活和你成功的机会,它会耗尽你的存款,留给你干涸的心灵。怀疑是敌人,追赶它,消灭它。
学习啦在线学习网 The fourth enemy within is worry. We’ve all got to worry some. Just don’t let conquer you. Instead, let it alarm you. Worry can be useful. If you step off the curb in New York City and a taxi is coming, you’ve got to worry. But you can’t let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner. Here’s what you’ve got to do with your worries: drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you, you’ve got to get it. Whatever is pushing on you, you’ve got to push back.
第四个内在的敌人是担忧。我们都会有些担忧,不过千万不要让担忧征服你。相反,让它来惊醒你。担忧也许能派上用场。当你在纽约走上人行道时有一辆出租车向你驶来,你就得担忧。但你不能让担忧像疯狗一样失控,将你逼到死角。你应该这样对付自己的担忧:把担忧驱至死角。不管是什么打击你,你都要打击它。不管什么攻击你,你都要反击。
The fifth interior enemy is overcaution. It is the timid approach to life. Timidity is not a virtue; it’s an illness. If you let it go, it’ll conquer you. Timid people don’t get promoted. They don’t advance and grow and become powerful in the marketplace. You’ve got to avoid overcaution.
学习啦在线学习网 第五个内在的敌人是过分谨慎。那是胆小的生活方式。胆怯不是美德,而是一种疾病。如果你不理会它,它就会将你征服。胆怯的人不会得到提拔,他们在市场中不会前进、不会成长、不会变得强大。你要避免过分谨慎。
Do battle with the enemy. Do battle with your fears. Build your courage to fight what’s holding ou back, what’s keeping you from your goals and dreams. Be courageous in your life and in your pursuit of the things you want and the person you want to become.
一定要向这些敌人开战。一定要向恐惧开战。鼓起勇气抗击阻挡你的事物,与阻止你实现目标和梦想的事物做斗争。要勇敢地生活,勇敢地追求你想要的事物并勇敢地成为你想成为的人。
