我是你的拐杖,你是我的眼睛
这是一个苦难的家庭。儿子四岁时,得了骨髓炎,家里花光了所有的积蓄,也没能治好,最后失去了一条腿,成了残疾人;祸不单行,父亲为筹措儿子的医药费,四处打工,在一家小铁矿厂挖矿,一次放炮炸矿石时,发生意外事故,三名工友被炸身亡,溅起的石渣将他的双眼眼球砸破,导致双目失明。这个本来就一贫如洗的家庭,从此陷入更深的绝境,家里惟一的经济来源,是母亲一个人艰难耕种的几亩庄稼。儿子七岁时,村里同龄的孩子都高高兴兴背着书包上学了,儿子也嚷着要读书。母亲哭着对儿子说,学校离家六七里山路,你一条腿怎么走去啊,我要忙地里的活,没有时间送你;爸爸的双眼又瞎了,成了废人,更没办法送你啊。父亲无奈地对儿子说,等你长大了,送你去学门手艺,养活自己。可是,倔强的儿子坚持要上学,儿子说,我将来要考上大学,挣钱养活你们。儿子哭得很伤心。想了想,父亲说,那我每天送你去。
从那天开始,每天,在崇山峻岭的大山里,都会出现这样两个身影:瘸着腿的孩子,一只手拉着双目失明的父亲的手,两个人,艰难地行走在盘曲的山路上。父亲一只手,紧紧地拽着儿子的小手,用劲往上提,他知道这样能让只有一条腿的儿子,走起来稍稍轻松些;看到路上有沟沟坎坎,儿子就会提醒父亲,沟有多宽多深,好让他准确地跳过去。父亲是儿子的拐杖,儿子是父亲的眼睛。
最困难的是雨天,山路又陡又滑,一不小心,就会摔倒。父亲戴着斗笠,穿着很大的雨披,将儿子紧紧地夹在腋下,像母鸡呵护小鸡崽一样。有一次,雨很大,儿子没留意脚下的一块石头,父亲一个趔趄,跌到在地,儿子也跟着摔倒了,两个人在雨水里,滚成了泥猴。父亲爬了起来,循着声音摸到了儿子,将儿子扶了起来。父亲问儿子,痛吗?儿子咬着牙说,不痛。漫天的雨中,父子俩艰难地向学校方向赶去。他们就这样,艰难地走在这条山路上,一走,走了五年多。如今,儿子已经上小学六年级了,他的成绩一直名列前茅。儿子也已经长高了,他不再需要父亲拉着他的手,而是将一只手搭在父亲的肩膀上,那是他最牢靠的拐杖。
人生有太多的苦难,无法看见这个世界,是痛苦的;只能用一条腿支撑人生,是不幸的,可是,如果你看不见这个世界,却有一双陪伴你的眼睛;如果你无法行走,却有一根拐杖让你搀扶,苦难的人生便不再孤独。

以下是一篇出自中国古代的寓言故事(英文版),故事结尾附上寓意,方便大家理解故事..邯郸学步Imitating Another without Success and Losing What Used to Be One'sOwn Ability
相传在两千年前,燕国寿陵地方有一位少年,不知道姓啥叫啥,就叫他寿陵少年吧!
这位寿陵少年不愁吃不愁穿,论长相也算得上中等人材,可他就是缺乏自信心,经常无缘无故地感到事事不如人,低人一等——衣服是人家的好,饭菜是人家的香,站相坐相也是人家高雅。他见什么学什么,学一样丢一样,虽然花样翻新,却始终不能做好一件事,不知道自己该是什么模样。
家里的人劝他改一改这个毛病,他以为是家里人管得太多。亲戚、邻居们,说他是狗熊掰棒子,他也根本听不进去。日久天长,他竟怀疑自己该不该这样走路,越看越觉得自己走路的姿势太笨,太丑了。
有一天,他在路上碰到几个人说说笑笑,只听得有人说邯郸人走路姿势那叫美。他一听,对上了心病,急忙走上前去,想打听个明白。不料想,那几个人看见他,一阵大笑之后扬长而去。
邯郸人走路的姿势究竟怎样美呢?他怎么也想象不出来。这成了他的心病。终于有一天,他瞒着家人,跑到遥远的邯郸学走路去了。
一到邯郸,他感到处处新鲜,简直令人眼花缭乱。看到小孩走路,他觉得活泼、美,学;看见老人走路,他觉得稳重,学;看到妇女走路,摇摆多姿,学。就这样,不过半月光景,他连走路也不会了,路费也花光了,只好爬着回去了。
故事出自《庄子·秋水》。成语“邯郸学步”,比喻生搬硬套,机械地模仿别人,不但学不到别人的长处,反而会把自己的优点和本领也丢掉。
Imitating Another without Success and Losing What Used to Be One'sOwn AbilityTradition has it that more than 2,oooyears ago,there lived a young man in the Shouling area of the State of Yan.As his name is not known ,we just call him Shouling young man for convenience's sake.self confident He was at a loss as to how to behave all the time.His family members advised him to overcome this shortcoming,but he thought they were fond of poking their noses into his business and were unwilling to provide him with tuition fee.His relatives and neighbours sneered at him,saying that he would never be able to learn
anything.Asthe days went by,he even began to doubt whether he should walk the way he did,for he felt more and more that his walking gestures were too clumsy and awkward.One day,he met some people on the road who werechattingand laughing.One of
themsaid that people in Handan walked most gracefully.And thatwas just what he was most concerned about,so he hurreed towards themand wanted to make further inquiries.To his surprise,when these people saw him,they stalked off laughing.He could not picture to himself in what way their walking gestures were graceful,no matter how hard he racked his parents one day.He went to Handanwhich was far away to learn how to walk.As soon as he arrived in Handan,he was dazzled to find that everything was novel.He learned from the children there how to walk,because he thought that the children's walking gestures were lively and pleasing to the eye.He learnd from the old people there how to walk,because he thought the old people's walking gestures were steady.He learnd from the women there how to walk,because he thought the women' swaying walking gestures were
beautiful.That being the case with him ,in less than half a month he even forgot how to walk.As he had already used up his traveling expenses,he had to crawl back home.The Lion and the Mouse 狮子与报恩的老鼠
A LION was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face.Rising up angrily, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: “If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness.” The Lion laughed and let him go.It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground.The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came and gnawed the rope with his teeth and set him free, exclaiming:
“You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any
repayment of your favor;now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion.”
狮子睡着了,有只老鼠跳到了他身上。狮子猛然站起来,把他抓住,准备吃掉。老鼠请 求饶命,并说如果保住性命,必将报恩,狮子轻蔑地笑了笑,便把他放走了。不久,狮子真 的被老鼠救了性命。原来狮子被一个猎人抓获,并用绳索把他捆在一棵树上。老鼠听到了他 的哀嚎,走过去咬断绳索,放走了狮子,并说:
“你当时嘲笑我,不相信能得到我的报答,现在可清楚了,老鼠也能报恩。” 这故事说明,时运交替变更,强者也会有需要弱者的时候。
The Wolf and the Lamb 狼与小羊
WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him.He thus addressed him:“Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me.” “Indeed,” bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, “I was not then born.” Then said the Wolf , “You feed in my pasture.” “No, good sir,” replied the Lamb, “I have not yet tasted grass.” Again said the Wolf, “You drink of my well.” “No,” exclaimed the Lamb, “I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me.” Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, “Well!I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations.”
The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.一只小羊在河边喝水,狼见到后,便想找一个名正言顺的借口吃掉他。于是他跑到上 游,恶狠狠地说小羊把河水搅浑浊了,使他喝不到清水。小羊回答说,他仅仅站在河边喝 水,并且又在下游,根本不可能把上游的水搅浑。狼见此计不成,又说道:“我父亲去年被 你骂过。”小羊说,那时他还没有出生。狼对他说:“不管你怎样辩解,反正我不会放过 你。”
这说明,对恶人做任何正当的辩解也是无效的。
The Bat and the Weasels蝙蝠与黄鼠狼
A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life.The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds.The Bat assured him that
he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free.Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him.The
Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice.The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.
第三篇:最佳励志短文欣赏
这两天各大报章都在刊载我的收入几年翻了30倍的消息。
我娘今天批评我说,你哪涨了那么多,数学不好,要是当初《双面胶》1万元一集,现在难不成你有30万元一集了吗?没办法,遗传了你爹的没脑子。
我哈哈大笑,跟她说,妈妈你批评得对。我数学不好。但我没敢让妈妈知道,我写《双面胶》的时候,剧本费,我一分钱都没拿。活儿是我白送的。如果我说了,她大约要心疼到晕过去。当时我挺着大肚子在怀孕,还连天加夜写剧本,我妈一直以为我是看在钱的份儿上。因此,如果从零的基础上算,我翻的价钱,你可以说成百上千倍了。《双面胶》,我没拿剧本费,甚至在电视剧的编剧名单上,也没有出现我的名字。如果大家现在回头去查,编剧是滕华弢和曹盾。当然群众的眼睛是雪亮的,亮到把他俩都屏蔽了,最终,尽管字幕上没有六六,我依旧获得了白玉兰奖最佳编剧的提名。
很多人也许觉得,我吃亏了。其实我内心里很感激滕华弢。如果不是他为我打开了电视剧这扇门,我的作品也许直到今天都藏在深闺无人识。一个从没有上过电影学院、戏剧学院,不知什么叫大纲分集,不会分镜头场景的人(其实现在还是不知道),也能变成现在国内编剧的前列,我对华弢的感激是永远的。母亲告诉我,吃亏是福。我越大越体会得出这句话的含义。有时候,你想吃亏,亏还不给你机会。
我成名之后,应该是《蜗居》之后的事,有个小说的作者,辗转通过人介绍,找到我,加了我的MSN,跟我聊了一段天以后,问我,你当初《双面胶》剧本多少钱一集?版权费多少钱?我如实相告。他回我:“这么点儿?你也卖?”我说,可是要是不卖,我哪有今天的这么多呢?他又问我,你今天拿多少?我告诉他一个数字,他点头说,还可以。于是,他按照我说的《蜗居》的价钱,管滕华弢要版权费和剧本费。那个作品,直到今天大约还捂在他手中。因为后来没下文了。
我曾经做过他的思想工作,跟他说,你要是在金钱上斤斤计较,你的作品就会延迟一年甚至十年出来,人的创作高峰期能有几个十年?你也不知道市场如何变,也许今天你的这种宫廷戏饱受欢迎,明天就被观众抛弃了。趁有机会,你得赶紧去做。他闷了半晌,答我:“我不像你。万一我这部便宜卖了,下一部戏我写不出呢?”我听出了,他打算靠这一部戏颐养天年。我后来把他就给BLOCK住,不再与他交往。
一个对自己都没信心的人,你如何指望他人对你有信心呢?
拿两千块钱的薪水,要有一万块钱的范儿。这句话是我看到的一篇文章的题目。我很喜欢。文章的意思就是,你
如果打算就钱做事,那你一辈子都是给人打工且暗无天日的命。你唯一能出人头地的原因是,你有野心,你志不在小。工作不是为别人,而是为自己。如果你把工作当成工作,基本上一辈子就是做一天和尚撞一天钟了。如果你把工作当事业去奋斗,你得到的一定比你期望的高。
我在新加坡教书的时候,最初一个半小时15新币。若刨去来回路上两三个钟头,还有车钱和饭钱,我基本上教书就是图一个乐子了。可我依旧坚持去做,新加坡那个大太阳,晒得很辛苦,整个新加坡的交通,我摸得门儿清,我曾经去过地图都找不到的地方,我还在地铁上站着睡着过。
我一个朋友的太太,那时刚从中国来新加坡,我把自己手头的家教分给她。她做一段,不愿意做了,嫌辛苦,又不赚钱。而另一个跟我学艺的学徒对我说,小孩子上课的时候想睡觉,她就陪他趴在桌子上一起睡。我大惊,跟她说,你怎么可以这样!家长是付钱给你的!她说:“才20块,我难道要卖身给他父母吗?”
两三年后,我一小时课的课时费已经超过50新币,学生排队到两年后。集中上大课的话,价钱还要高些。我的总收入与新加坡大学教授齐平。而那两个幸福的女人早就退出不干了,因为嫌苦,这个行业不赚钱。
十年后,她们经常在媒体上才能看到我,而她们,依旧在家里做幸福的太太。
我不是说她们这样的选择不好,她们可能一辈子比我还要幸福,不必努力也有安定的生活。但我却依旧忍不住要给自己发奖章。因为我一路回顾,凭自己的努力,永远在创造着我人生的新价值。如果我是一只上市股,在过去的十年里,我就一路长红没跌过。
媒体也许只注意我说的30倍了,每个人都惊叹我的好运。但没有人注意我30倍后面的故事。
我今天,最大的快乐,其实不是你们关注的收入。钱,我花得到今天都不多。认识我的朋友也知道,我依旧背着
环保袋满大街溜达,我依旧淘宝购物。有一天我没这么高的收入,对我而言,生活都不会难受,因为我的内心很满足。我最大的快乐是,我通过努力,过的每一天,都是我想要的。
不要总是抱怨社会,说他人对你不公或者资本家剥削。你如果不从内心里感恩,感谢资本家给你一个剥削你的机会,你就永远不会拿两千块钱,成就你一千万块的事业基础。
这个世界从来没有任何一件工作叫“钱多、事少、离家近” 人生有知有力的三个十年,需要扎扎实实的靠自己。找工作,谈何容易。身边的朋友,有的已经尘埃落定,有的还在执着坚持。签得价钱高的,嫌累嫌远,签得低的,怕不够花。昨天翻闲书,看到了对何经华的采访,觉得很好。(何经华:IT界打工皇帝,曾担任赛贝斯软件主要客户总监、甲骨文美国东岸技术销售总监、甲骨文台湾分公司总经理、用友软件首席执行官、希柏软件全球副总裁兼大中华区及东亚区总裁、金蝶国际软件行政总裁、新一佳CEO、柯莱特集团CEO等职位。)
20多岁是一个让人迷茫的年纪。何经华当年也是矮矬穷。20多岁的史玉柱在浙大学数学。20多岁的马云四处碰壁。20多岁的王江民因小儿麻痹而一无所有。20多岁的王石在大戈壁上当汽车兵。后来,他们都牛逼了。所以我常常想,我是不是活的太顺了,我们是不是太顺了。下面是对何经华的采访中他谈到的:
我常说人生有三个阶段,第一个阶段是你“无知无力”,就是你知识不是很丰富身体也没长好的时候,你是小孩在念书。第三个阶段是“有知无力”,你积累了很多知识经验,可是你年纪大了,老了做不动了。中间三十年,是你有知有力的三个十年。
第一个十年你应该要投资自己。什么叫投资自己?你有没有花很长一段时间,就像我们练功夫一样,先把马步练好。第一个十年你不要追求工资。
你今天的工资可能是三千块四千块,我说我现场加你两千块钱一个月的工资,你告诉我你的生活会改变吗?不会的,奔驰宝马你还是买不起,大房子你也买不起。
在第一个十年大家工资的差异是没有差异的,你的同学也许早你一年升个什么组长、什么经理,那也不重要。最重要的是你在第一个十年你要扎扎实实地投资自己。
当然,现在年轻人他会更多地看到自己以前的同班同学如何优秀,薪水有多高。
但人生要算总账。从你学校毕业的第一天的第一毛钱,到你退休后领的最后一毛钱,总共加起来你能挣多少钱。第一个十年走完了,如果你扎扎实实地把自己的基本功练好,到第二个十年你可能有机会成为一个部门主管。我说第一个十年是你这一辈子工资最微薄的时候。这个时候你可能是单身,你的这个收入也就能支撑你的生活所需。到第二个十年,你可能也结婚了,可能有个孩子,如果干得还不错,你能干到一个部门经理,你的收入勉勉强强还能支撑一个家庭要的。所以你还是不够,你上餐厅点菜的时候,你还做不到把价钱盖起来,你爱点什么点什么。你上超市买东西可以不要看价钱。
第二个十年你要学第二个东西,叫技巧,做事的技巧,待人处事的技巧,处理复杂事物的技巧。前面两个十年如果你走得很扎实,你才有可能走到第三个十年。
第三个十年是什么,做到一个公司真正的大老总。第三个十年才是你财富积累的开始,那个时候你的收入会远大于你的生活所需,人生的财富从第三个十年开始计较。
可是很不幸,绝大部分人走不到第三个十年。虽然咱们都是同一所学校毕业的同一个科系毕业的,上课的时候坐在你旁边的同学,十年十五年之后这两个同学的发展可能有很大的差异。
这个世界从来没有任何一件工作叫“钱多、事少、离家近”。
我也不是学校毕业第一天就干老总的。我干sales(销售),就是马路上的基层销售人员。
我当时在美国干销售我是怎么干的,只要太阳还没有下山,外面是白天,我一定在外面跑。跑客户,找商机,做事情。等太阳下山了,客户下班了,我回办公室做几件事。第一把我今天一天跑下来的东西做一个总结,第二件事就是把我明天要去拜访的客户再做个总结,做准备。常常等我一抬头的时候已经凌晨两点了,我忽然想起我好像没吃晚饭,我忽然想起我好久没上厕所了。
现在的年轻人流行一个口头禅,“我换工作了”,然后顺带告诉你,“我把老板给炒了”。
我在招聘新员工的时候看简历,你知道我最先看什么?第一我不看名字,第二我不看学历,我先看他在每一份工作呆了多久。现在的年轻人工作更换太频繁了,是一件非常危险的事。
频繁更换工作的简历会给我几个很重要的信息,第一这个年轻人还不知道他要干些什么,所以他老换。另外,新到一个岗位大概有两三个月的蜜月期,反正你是新人,大家对你要求都不高。等干到半年九个月,你碰到第一批困难的时候选择离开。发生困难了,最容易的决定是我不干了,然后美其名曰:“我把老板开了”。我看看这样的年轻人能开几个老板,他最后会把自己开了。因为到最后他的简历会没有地方去。
我相信这样子看简历的领导不止我一个人。如果前面的功夫不扎实,有些人可能运气不错,也做上老总的位置。可是你会坐不住,那个椅子上有油,你坐上去会滑下来。一个企业运作到最后,都是实实在在的东西,不是光说大话就可以过得了关的。像我这一辈子我没有发过什么财,我常说我的运气是很差的。我抽奖常常抽到纪念奖,一半人中奖我都抽不到,只能扎扎实实靠自己挣工资
就业最重要的是“态度”。
进入职场初期和学校一样,都需要学习。不同的是,在学校里错误通常被原谅,上课允许迟到、跷课,允许奇装异服;但在真实的社会里,错误要自己负责、迟到早退免谈、缺席可能就不用再出席,服装有一定的礼仪……有一句话说:“心若改变,态度就会改变;态度改变,习惯就会改变;习惯改变,人生就会改变。”
美国有一个培养杰出推销员的布鲁金斯学会,它设有一个代表最伟大推销员的“金鞋奖”,其挑战通常是要推销某种东西给现任的美国总统。克林顿时期是要推销一条三角裤给他,结果大家都失败了。
布什上台后,题目换成销售一把斧头。很多人认为总统什么都不缺,所以连试也不试就放弃了。只有销售员赫伯特认为,只要有恒心和毅力,就可以推销斧头给总统。所以他开始调查研究,发现布什有一个农场,很多树有很多枯枝需要砍除,于是就写信给布什,说你一定需要一把既能锻炼身体又能砍伐枯树枝的斧头。最后,赫伯特成功卖了一把斧头给布什,也获得悬置多年、无人荣获的“金鞋奖”。
在所有推销员里,赫伯特并不是最突出,推销能力也不是最好。但是他有热情,有对推销职业的使命感,最后终于成功。
先天的聪明与智慧或许让你一开始可以比别人快一步,但职场最后的成功,则须靠持续的热情和永不停歇的努力。
1000美元一碗的中国拉面
他叫冯三峰,今年36岁。他曾是河南省一个普普通通的高考落榜生。落榜后,他辗转在河南、山东和安徽等地打工,由于没有一技之长,几年过去,一事无成。
这时,有人嘲笑他:“生就一个穷人命,想做富人万不能。”但他没有灰心,而是来到合肥一家厨师学校学手艺。与学做面食的白案相比,学烹饪菜肴的红案有更多的机会拿高薪,可他等了多次的机会,也没报上红案的名。不得已,他只得选择了白案。
这时,又有人嘲笑他:“就算学成下来,也只不过是个包子师傅,还会有什么大出息?”他心想,不管怎么说,有门技术总比卖苦力要强,于是,坚持跟一位师傅学起了做面食。他学得认认真真,一年下来,竟将手中的面团玩到了炉火纯青:可以双手左右开弓擀12张饺子皮,可以不费吹灰之力做出一桌全面宴,更奇特的是,可以把拉面拉到在一根针眼里穿过15至20根。之后,他凭着一手面点手艺,又辗转几个城市打工。由于有了一项手艺,较之以前,他的经济状况有了一定的改善。
有一天,一家驻外建筑公司招聘两名面点师傅,年薪6万元,工作地点是到这家公司设在阿拉伯联合酋长国的建筑分公司,他听说后动了心,赶去报了名,心想国外或许会有更大的发展空间。
凭着高超的面点手艺,他被选中了,来到阿联酋的第二大城市迪拜。在当地人只会做大饼的迪拜市,他变着法子做着面食,让那些中国员工欢呼雀跃,更让一些阿联酋员工赞不绝口。短短的几个月时间,他的面条、花卷、饺子,就给这座繁华的城市注入一股新鲜的活力。
一天,迪拜最豪华的也是世界上唯一的一家七星级酒店总管找到了他,以4000美元的月薪聘请他出任酒店的面点大师傅。在酒店,他每天面对的几乎全是世界各国的王室成员、政要及体育和娱乐界的顶级人物。工作一个月后,他得到俄罗斯首富、石油大王罗曼·阿布拉莫维奇的亲自召见,这位亿万富翁对他做的面点兴致盎然。
他没想到,太多太多的富商巨贾、达官贵人在满桌的山珍海味面前,偏偏喜欢他的土得掉渣的中国民间小吃。短短的一年时间,他的月薪涨到6000美元,加上每月小费4000美元,月赚1万美元。他曾亲手教会泰国总理夫妇做饺子,教会美军驻海湾地区前总司令施瓦茨柯普夫将军做兰州拉面,为好莱坞著名导演斯皮尔伯格表演拉面绝活。2006年9月,美国国务卿赖斯入住酒店,她听说这个来自中国的面点师能将15根拉面穿过针眼,怎么也不相信,于是他当场表演,结果竟穿过了20根。所有围观者都目瞪口呆。就在当天的舞会上,他的拉面竟卖到1000美元一碗的天价!为此,他个人获得美国国务卿1万美元的天价小费!
在人们眼里,会做一碗拉面能有多大出息?可是,只要有心,小小手艺也能成大器,一碗拉面也会卖到1000美元,人生还有什么不能实现的!
1、当最绝望的时候来临,你还是有的机会,你可以选择变得浮躁,也可以选择想办法改变现状。我们可以选择互相鼓励尝试走出困境,也可以选择一起抱怨摧毁旁人的希望让大家一起毁灭。
2、看到自己的同学或者其他熟人干得风生水起,就有些心不定了。就像长跑比赛,一开始大家都疯狂跑出去就你一个人慢吞吞的,就算你不想拿名次心里也会觉得别扭。但如果总是被外界环境或者别人的意思所左右的话,你会疲于奔命的。如果你想好了你想要的,就要心定,安心做好自己身边的事情。你就是每天打牌,只要能打成个高手,未必不能在这个社会安身立命,做什么并没有太大关系,关键是做好什么。
3、现在的情形有点像蛇蜕皮,或者说凤凰涅磐,本身都是到了一个瓶颈,每跨过一个瓶颈都是一段极端痛苦的经历,我不知道你有没有看过蛇蜕皮的样子,我只能用四个字来形容“极端痛苦”。跨过瓶颈的时间有长有短,传说玉皇大帝跨过一个瓶颈(他们叫做“劫”)要12万年。我唯有鼓励你继续坚持,相信“天道酬勤”,你坚持下来了,而别人坚持不下来,这就是你的资本。
4、要做到别人没有做到的事情,这样才能站稳脚跟,经过了“三年”你做事的水平应该和刚刚开始的时候是不一样的。如果只有“激情”,没有“结果”,这种人叫做“小白兔”,小白兔很可爱,但没用,团队领导不可能养一大堆小白兔。你觉得自己比别人强没用,要别人承认才行,喜欢你的人承认没用,要不喜欢你的人也承认才行。
5、对于不公平的现象,你能怎么办呢?愤怒,生气甚至自暴自弃只是在惩罚自己,让自己少活几年,那些不公平现象并不会有任何改变,社会已经不公平了,为什么还要惩罚自己?
6、得乙肝并不可怕,可怕的是这件事在你心里成为一个障碍,你一直背着这个包袱能跑多远跑多快?是的,你比一般人不幸,可能要比一般人承受多一点辛苦,可乙肝患者及携带者有1个多亿人,可没见有1亿多失业的,天还远没有塌下来,处境也远没有你担心的那么糟糕,“企业体检必被刷下来”,是别人吓唬你还是你吓唬自己?
7、无论什么时候,不要失去对生活的信心,不要让别人摧毁你的信心,那些失去了生活信心的人,比得了乙肝的人更悲惨。
8、是你把职场想简单了,而且你对于职场来说,太脆弱。这里本来就是一个狼多肉少适者生存的环境,我写的就是怎么在这样的环境里活下去,活得更好。你当然要知道上司会抢你的功劳,就像狼知道狮子会抢他的食物,难道知道狮子会抢就应该变得“十分阴险且沮丧,基本失去信心?”,因为知道狮子会抢,所以狼从不单独行动,野生动物永远都是饥饿的,从来没有可以安逸的时候,即使吃到一块肉也很快就会笑话掉,这就是职场生活,你何时见它们丧失过信心?知道上司会抢功劳,你总归会有办法的。至于你的沮丧,是你要练习克服的。
9、当你迷茫的时候,手边的事情就是好事情,不要犹豫,不要觉得可能自己会错过什么,你犹豫的时候,手边的事情就没做好,最后这辈子啥也没得到。所谓三鸟在林不如一鸟在手,做好一件事情比想做好三件事情可贵得多。“最”好的,实际上,经历过的就是“最”好的。再好的公司里也有不快乐的员工,再烂的公司也有快乐的时光。
14、无论在哪个年龄,无论在哪个公司,你都要专注于发掘或者发展自己的“利用价值”,我们可以把利用价值分成三个档次:第一个档次,忍别人不能忍的。第二个档次,做别人不能做的。第三个档次,想别人不能想的。
15、生活和工作还是要有所区别的,从你的文字当中看你的工作的起起伏伏完全影响了你的心情,这是不健康的。你首先要enjoy你的生活,而不是为了什么而勉强自己。很多人说,我这么做是为了这个,为了那个……但首先还是要为了自己,飞机上有句话,“在你试图帮助别人戴氧气面罩之前请先给自己戴好氧气面罩”(哪怕这个别人是你的亲人)为别人着想,先把自己的日子过好。
16、怎样获得快乐,获得财富,本来就是个相当复杂的问题,没有简单的回答。年轻人绝大多数没有事业没有钱,却有蓬勃的欲望,所以并不快乐,仍旧在人生的谷底徘徊,而我所想做的只是在帮忙想办法走出谷底,而不是到谷底把你背出来。
17、我觉得每条道路都可以走得很好,做什么不重要,重要的是怎么做
18、要当贼就要有面临被抓的勇气,要赌博就要有倾家荡产的准备,要追求理想就要有承受失败的精神,要考虑下半辈子就要有适应环境的觉悟。你总是在悲观地看待问题,追求理想的时候想我下半辈子怎么办,追求物质的时候又觉得自己的个性受到了压抑。我们都是普通人,一生做好一件事就很了不起了,什么都要,什么都得不到。

Archaeology
考古学
Archaeology is a source of history, not just a humble auxiliary discipline.Archaeological data are historical documents in their own right, not mere illustrations to written texts.Just as much as any other historian, an archaeologist studies and tries to reconstitute the process that has created the human world in which we live--and us ourselves in so far as we are each creatures of our age and social environment.考古学是历史学的一个来源,而不是地位卑微的辅助学科。考古资料本身也是一种历史文献,而不仅仅是文字资料的例证。正像任何一位历史学家那样,考古学家研究调查并尽力去重构一个过程,这个过程创造了我们生活的人类世界,也创造了我们自身,因为我们都是我们所处的时代和社会环境的产物。
Archaeological data are all changes in the material world resulting from human action or, more succinctly, the fossilized results of human behavior.The sum total of these constitutes what may be called the archaeological record.This record exhibits certain peculiarities and deficiencies the consequences of which produce a rather superficial contrast between archaeological history and the more familiar kind based upon written records.考古学的资料就是人类行为所造成的物质变化。更简洁地说,是石化了的人类行为。这些变化的总和构成了我们所说的考古学记录。这些记录自有其独特和不足之处,因而导致人们对考古历史和更熟悉的文字记载历史进行相当肤浅的对比。
Not all human behavior fossilizes.The words I utter and you hear as vibrations in the air are certainly human changes in the material world and may be of great historical significance.Yet they leave no sort of trace in the archaeological records unless they are captured by a dictaphone or written down by a clerk.并不是所有的人类行为都留下化石。我说的话,你通过空气振动听见,这当然是人类造成的物质变化,也可能有重大的历史意义,但这些话在考古学中未留下丝毫痕迹,除非有人用录音机录下来或文书把这些话写了下来。
The movement of troops on the battlefield may “change the course of history,” but this is equally ephemeral from the archaeologist's standpoint.What is perhaps worse, most organic materials are perishable.Everything made of wood, hide, wool, linen, grass, hair, and similar materials will decay and vanish in dust in a few years or centuries, save under very exceptional conditions.In a relatively brief period the archaeological record is reduced to mere scraps of stone, bone, glass, metal, and earthenware.Still modern archaeology, by applying appropriate techniques and comparative methods, aided by a few lucky finds from peat-bogs, deserts, and frozen soils, is able to fill up a good deal of the gap.战场上军队的行动可能“改变历史的进程”,但从考古学的观点来看,这同样是难以捕捉的;可能更糟的是,多数有机物质会腐烂。任何由木头、生皮、绒线、亚麻、草、毛发以及相似物质做成的东西除非在一些非常特殊的条件下,几年或几个世纪以后,会在尘土中腐烂并消失。在短时期内,能留下考古记录的东西也都会退化为石头、骨头、玻璃、金属和陶器的碎片。然而,现代考古学通过运用适当的技术和比较的方法,在从泥炭、沙漠和冻土中所获得的一些幸运发现的辅助下,能够填充这个空缺的很大部分。

A Rare Fossil Record
罕见的化石记录
The preservation of embryos and juveniles is a rate occurrence in the fossil record.The tiny, delicate skeletons are usually scattered by scavengers or destroyed by weathering before they can be fossilized.Ichthyosaurs had a higher chance of being preserved than did terrestrial creatures because, as marine animals, they tended to live in environments less subject to erosion.Still, their fossilization required a suite of factors: a slow rate of decay of soft tissues, little scavenging by other animals, a lack of swift currents and waves to jumble and carry away small bones, and fairly rapid burial.Given these factors, some areas have become a treasury of well-preserved ichthyosaur fossils.胚胎与幼体被保存下来在化石记录中是少见的事情。微小纤细的骨骼通常在石化前就被食腐肉的动物拆散了,或者被风化作用破坏掉了。鱼龙比起陆地的动物有更大的几率被保存下来,因为它们作为海洋动物常生活在腐蚀性较小的环境中。但是它们的石化需要一系列因素:软组织的腐烂速度缓慢,很少被其他动物残食,缺少混杂、冲走小骨头的快速水流和波浪,以及相当快地被掩埋。当这些因素存在时,某些地区就会变成一个充满保存完好的鱼龙化石的宝库。
The deposits at Holzmaden, Germany, present an interesting case for analysis.The ichthyosaur remains are found in black, bituminous marine shales deposited about 190 million years ago.Over the years, thousands of specimens of marine reptiles, fish and invertebrates have been recovered from these rocks.The quality of preservation is outstanding, but what is even more impressive is the number of ichthyosaur fossils containing preserved embryos.Ichthyosaurs with embryos have been reported from 6 different levels of the shale in a small area around Holzmaden, suggesting that a specific site was used by large numbers of ichthyosaurs repeatedly over time.The embryos are quite advanced in their physical development;their paddles, for example, are already well formed.One specimen is even preserved in the birth canal.In addition, the shale contains the remains of many newborns that are between 20 and 30 inches long.在德国获尔兹梅登,那儿的沉积物给人们提出了一个有趣的分析案例。人们在黑色的、含沥青的海洋页岩中发现了约19,000年前沉积下来的鱼龙化石。几年时间内,在这些岩石中取得了数以千计的海洋爬行动物、鱼类以及无脊椎动物的标本。它们的保存质量非常的好,但更令人称奇的是保存下来的育有胚胎的鱼龙化石数目。在获尔兹梅登附近一个小地区的六个不同的页岩层中分别发现了育有胚胎的鱼龙化石。这表明大量的鱼龙经年累月重复使用一个特定的地点。那些胚胎已经发育得相当完整了。比如,它们的蹼桨已经完全形成了。有一个标本甚至被保存在产道中。而且,那块页岩包含着很多在20到30英寸之间的新生幼体的化石。
Why are there so many pregnant females and young at Holzmaden when they are so rare elsewhere? The quality of preservation is almost unmatched and quarry operations have been carried out carefully with an awareness of the value of the fossils.But these factors do not account for the interesting question of how there came to be such a concentration of pregnant ichthyosaurs in a particular place very close to their time of giving birth.为什么在其他地方那么稀少的怀孕雌兽和幼体在获尔兹梅登却那么多呢? 因为其保存质量几乎举世无双,采集工作的进行一直是一丝不苟的。大家都认识到这些化石的价值极其珍贵,但这些因素并不能解释这个有趣的问题:为什么在一个特定的地点会如此集中地出现即将临产的怀孕鱼龙群呢?

The Nobel Academy
诺贝尔委员会
For the last 82 years, Sweden's Nobel Academy has decided who will receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, thereby determining who will be elevated from the great and the near great to the immortal.But today the Academy is coming under heavy criticism both from the without and from within.在过去的82年里,瑞典的诺贝尔委员会决定了谁将获得诺贝尔文学奖,因此也就决定了谁将从伟大或近乎伟大荣升为不朽。但在今天,该委员会却遭到了评选委员会内外的猛烈批评。
Critics contend that the selection of the winners often has less to do with true writing ability than with the peculiar internal politics of the Academy and of Sweden itself.According to Ingmar Bjorksten, the cultural editor for one of the country's two major newspapers, the prize continues to represent “what people call a very Swedish exercise: reflecting Swedish tastes”.批评者们争论说:评选获奖者时,起作用更大的不是真实的写作能力,而是该委员会以及瑞典特有的内部政治。按照瑞典两家主要报纸之一的文化版编辑Ingmar Bjorksten的说法,该文学奖仍然是“人们所说的一种非常瑞典式的做为:反映瑞典口味”。
The Academy has defended itself against such charges of provincialism in its selection by asserting that its physical distance from the great literary capitals of the world actually serves to protect the Academy from outside influences.This may well be true, but critics respond that this very distance may also be responsible for the Academy's inability to perceive accurately authentic trends in the literary world.对于其评选过程中目光短浅的指责,该委员会辩护说,该委员会与世界几大文学之都相距遥远,实际上使该委员会免受外来的干扰。这也许是对的,但批评者们反驳说,也正因为相距如此遥远,该委员会才不能准确地把握文学界的真正趋势。
Regardless of concerns over the selection process, however, it seems that the prize will continue to survive both as an indicator of the literature that we most highly praise, and as an elusive goal that writers seek.If for no other reason, the prize will continue to be desirable for the financial rewards that accompany it;not only is the cash prize itself considerable, but it also dramatically increases sales of an author's books.尽管对评选程序存在着关注,该文学奖将继续作为世人最为推崇的文学的标志而存在,并将继续是作家们难以达到却又会不断追逐的目标。如果不考虑其他因素,而仅仅考虑与之俱来的经济利益,该奖也将继续为人所渴求:这不仅因为该奖本身就是一笔可观的现金收入,而且该奖还将极大地增加一个作家的著作的销量。两分钟做个小测试,看看你的英语水平

Sports Meeting
Last month we had a sports meeting.Though the weather wasn't very fine that day, the students were all very excited and the whole school was alive.This time, I was even more excited.Because I went in for the sports meeting and my item was high jump.I didn't want to get any place, I only wanted to enjoy the game because I knew I wasn't good at sports.When I got to the field with my friend.I was both excited and nervous.When I saw the first height, my heart could hardly heat.How high it was!It was higher than our desks.I couldn't believe my eyes.This was too high for me to jump over.I wasn't nervous at that timewhile I was a bit afraid.But I had gone there, I must have a try.Not long after, the game began.The first person was great.He jumped over easily.I was too surprised to say a word.The second was good, too.The third nearly jumped over, but he wasn't bad…
It was my turn.I had a deep breath and then ran towards.In front of the pole, I began to jump.Oh, no!My right foot hit the pole.“I failed.” I thought.And then, another unlucky thing happened.I didn't stand firm and I tumbled.I hurt my back badly.At that moment I felt my back was broken.It was too painful.It seemed that the people around field all didn't know that, they only laughed at my foolish posture.After a very short rest, I stood up.I push my pain back and then went out of the field with my red face.My friend hurried to come to me.He asked me if this was terrible.I was too pained with my back to answer his questions.I only shook my head.I was sad.Not only I had hurt my back but also I couldn't go on in the game.I had to see the others jump and wish them to get a good place.Though I didn't have the whole game.I was still very happy.Because a lot of my classmates tried their best in the game and they got a lot of good places.They were all best in my eyes.I was thankful to them for doing their best for our class.关于运动的英语短文篇三
All over the world millions of people take part in different kinds of sports.Sports are perhaps the most popular form of relaxation that almost all can enjoy.Some people seem to think that sports and games are unimportant things that people do at times when they are not working.But in fact sports and games can be of great value, especially to people who work with their brains most of the day.They should not be treated only as ammusements.Sports and games build our bodies, prevent us from getting too fat, and keep us healthy.They also give us valuable practice in helping the eyes, brain and muscles to work together.In table tennis, the eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction, and pass the information on to the brain.The brain has to decide what to do and sends its orders to the muscles of the arms legs and so on, so that the bah is met and hit back where the player wants it to do.All this must happen with very great speed, and only those who have had a lot of practice can do this successfully.Sports and games are also very useful for character-training.In their lessons, boys and girls may learn about such virrues as unselfishness courage disciple and love of one's country, but what is learned in books can not have the same deep effect on a child's character as what is learned through practice.Most of students' time is spent in classes, studying lessons.So what the students do in their spare time is of great importance.If each of them learns to go all out for his team and not for himself on the sports field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of society, for the good of his country.两分钟做个小测试,看看你的英语水平
