Reading is a happy thing. For those who love reading, once they read it, they can't stop, they can't give up reading, they want to read to the ends of the world. Some people say: "the deepest and most peaceful happiness Calm down, open the book, the deposition of ink a little bit over the space, those dusty happiness a little bit open. Reading is really fun.
读书是一件快乐的事情。对于爱读书的人一但读上就让人欲罢不能，无法放弃读书，想让人读到天涯海角。有人说：“人生最深最平和的快乐，就是静观天地与人生，慢慢品味出它的和谐与美。”静下心来，翻开书本，那些沉积的墨香一点点溢满空间，那些尘封的快乐一点点打开。读书真的很快乐。
Goethe once said, "to read a good book is to talk to a noble man." Yes, reading good books is like making good teachers and friends, which benefits me a lot; Reading good books is like bathing in the warm spring breeze, Reading good books is like finding the source of happiness, which makes me understand the true meaning of happiness.
歌德以前说过：“读一本好书，就是和一位高尚的人谈话。”是的，读好书，就像结交了良师益友，使我受益匪浅；读好书，就像沐浴在温暖的春风里，使我心旷神怡；读好书，就像找到了快乐之源，使我领悟到快乐的真谛。

Life is picturesque, there are thick ink splashing, there are light pen light description; Life is like a song, there are light chanting and shallow singing, there are also Huang zhongdalu. You don't see the life of Li Taibai and Du Gongbu. They have created the greatness of life; Pei Duofei, Shelley's life, light pen light description, finally write the true meaning of life.
生命如画，有浓墨泼洒，也有淡笔轻描；生命如歌，有轻吟浅唱，也有黄钟大吕。君不见李太白、杜工部之一生，浓墨泼洒，铸就生命之伟大；裴多菲、雪莱之一生，淡笔轻描终写尽生命之真谛。
You can't see Tao Yuanming's "picking chrysanthemums under the East fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan" and Tan Sitong's "I smile from the horizontal knife to the sky, leaving my liver and gall in Kunlun".
君不见轻音浅唱之陶渊明“采菊东篱下，悠然见南山”，高歌猛进之谭嗣同“我自横刀向天笑，去留肝胆两昆仑”。

Spirit is a monument, a cornerstone, a beacon on the way forward, and a yardstick for a brilliant life. With modesty, rich and talented, Confucius slowly chanted that "if three people walk, there must be a teacher." he was not ashamed to ask questions, and eventually became a generation of Confucian masters.
精神是一座丰碑，是一块基石，是前进道路上的灯塔，是灿烂人生的标尺。有了谦虚，学富五车、才高八斗的孔子缓缓吟出“三人行，必有我师”，不耻下问，终成一代儒学大师。
With tolerance, ambition and high spirited, Duke Huan of Qi abandoned his personal feud, appointed people on the basis of merit, achieved great achievements for thousands of years, and finally never threw away the Han envoys' festival in his hand. He cared for his motherland and eventually became a patriotic model for thousands of years.
有了宽容，雄心勃勃、意气风发的齐桓公摈弃私仇，任人唯贤，成就千秋伟业，终成一代霸主；有了坚贞，寂寞忧愁、孤寂郁愤的苏武始终不扔掉手中的汉使族节，心系祖国，终成千秋爱国楷模；有了奉献，善良质朴、平凡无闻的徐虎才能够十年如一日，情洒百姓，温暖万家，终成当今的“活雷锋”。
Spirit, through the tunnel of history, across the long river of history, will forever support the towering and spectacular building of life.
精神，穿越历史隧道，趟过历史长河，将永久撑起人生巍峨壮观的大厦。

Night, like ink drops on the canvas of the sky, permeates and faints. With a few strokes of the brush, there are stars. With a few strokes, the soft moonlight will shoot into your heart.
夜，如墨般滴在天空的画布上，渗透、晕开，用画笔轻点几下，便有了星辰，再描上几下，柔和的月光将射进你的心房。
The firefly's light is as warm as the stars. The cricket took out his violin and played a beautiful waltz with the breeze.
萤火虫的光足以媲美点点繁星，却要温暖几分。蟋蟀拿出小提琴，与微风合作，演奏出一曲优美的圆舞曲。
The stream is flowing slowly, like the conveyor belt of time, passing by a little bit. Flowers even at night will also send out fragrance, the fish in the pool spit bubbles, bubbles are curtain after curtain of dreams. The sky began to rain, one by one, bright to the extreme, beautiful and sad, as if that is the sky tears.
溪水缓缓地流着，像时间的输送带，一点点流逝。花朵就算在夜晚也会散发芳香，池里的鱼儿吐着泡泡，泡泡里是一帘又一帘的美梦。天边下起了雨，一颗又一颗，明亮至极，秀丽且悲伤，仿佛那就是天空的眼泪。
Gently pull the curtain, is afraid to disturb that quiet; Lie down gently for fear of waking the sleeping stars; Gently cover the quilt, is afraid to break the sweet country autumn dream.
轻轻拉上窗帘，是怕惊扰那份宁静；轻轻地躺下，是怕吵醒那些熟睡的星星；轻轻地盖上被子，是怕打破那甜美的乡下秋梦。

Human life is a chain. There will always be children younger than you and old people older than you. Each of us has his own position. It is a financial report that no one can take away.
人的生命是一根链条，永久有比你年轻的孩子和比你年迈的老人。我们每个人都有自己的位置，它是一宗谁也掠不去的财报。
Don't worry about when you are young or old. As long as we live a day, the wealth of youth glitters. There is only one dark night that can cover its light, that is, you think you are old.
不要计较，何时年轻，何时年老。只要我们生存一天，青春的财富就闪闪发光。能够遮蔽它的光芒的暗夜只有一种，那就是你自以为已经衰老。

英语美文有助于我们培养对英语学习的兴趣，也能提高我们的写作能力。以下是我整理的3篇英语精美短文，供大家学习和参阅。
一：为什么你存不下钱
Don’t save what is left after spending. But spend what is left after savings.
不要把花剩下的钱拿来存，而是把存剩下的钱拿来花。
Wanting to save money is not enough. Anyway, there are a lot of things which didn’t come true although you wanted them to.
想存钱是远远不够的，毕竟你希望发生的事情并不一定就能发生。
Saving is a technique . It’s simple. It’s just not easy.
存钱是一门技术，这门技术很简单，只是不容易实现。
If you only come to think about saving after you spend, there is no chance for you to accumulate a considerable fortune, because spending is always irrational.
如果你总是在消费之后才想着应该存钱，那你肯定存不下钱，因为任何消费都是非理性的。
The way that works is to make plans in advance.
真正可行的方法，是事先计划好自己的消费方式。
Would it be too much to use 40% of my income to rent an apartment?
每个月用收入的40%租房子会不会太多?
Is it really enough to save just 20% every month?
每个月只存收入的20%会不会太少?
Only by making it clear how much you want to save can you come to know how much you can actually spend.
你只有先计划好要存多少钱，才能知道自己实际上可以花多少钱。
二：真正有意义的生活
What will matter?
什么才重要?
Ready or not, some day it will all come to an end. There will be no more sunrises, no days, no hours or minutes. All the things you collected, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to someone else.
无论是否准备好，总有一天它都会走到尽头。 那里没有日出，没有白天，没有小时和分钟。 你收集的所有东西，不管你珍惜或忘记与否，它们都将流入他人手中。
Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance. It will not matter what you owned or what you were owed.
不管是你得到的或是你欠别人的，可你的财产、名誉和权势也都会变成和你毫不相干的东西。
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies will finally disappear.
你的怨恨、愤慨、挫折和妒忌最终也将消失。
So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans, and to-do lists will all expire.The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away.
因此，你的希望、抱负、计划以及行动日程表也将全部结束。 当初看得比较重的成功得失也会消失。
It won't matter where you came from, or on what side of the tracks you lived.
你来自何方，住在穷人区还是富人区也都不重要了。
It won't matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant. Your gender, skin color, ethnicity will be irrelevant.
你昔日的漂亮与辉煌也都不重要了，你的性别、肤色、种族地位也将消失。
So what will matter? How will the value of your days be measured?
因此，什么重要呢? 怎么衡量你有生之年的价值呢?
What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built; not what you got, but what you gave.
重要的不是你买了什么，而是你创造了什么; 不是你得到了什么，而是你给予了什么。
What will matter is not your success, but your significance.

What will matter is not your competence, but your character.
重要的不是你的能力，而是你的性格。
What will matter is not how many people you knew, but how many will feel a lasting loss when you're gone.
重要的不是你认识多少人，而是在你离开后，多少人会怅然若失。
What will matter is not your memories, but the memories of those who loved you.
重要的不是你的回忆，而是爱你的人对你的追思。
What will matter is how long you will be remembered, by whom and for what.
重要的是别人会记你多长时间，谁记着你，为什么记着你。
Living a life that matters doesn’ t happen by accident.
过有意义的生活不是一桩偶然。
It s not a matter of circumstance but of choice.
是因为你选择了它。
Choose to live a life that matters.
选择有意义的人生吧!
三：难道真要工作一辈子吗?
Warren Buffet once said: "If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."
沃伦·巴菲特曾经说过：“如果你不想个办法在你睡觉的时候赚钱，那你就得一直工作到死。”
Sounds ridiculous in the first place, right? Isn’t that obvious?
这句话初听下来有点荒.唐，这不是明摆着的吗?
And how on earth can it be possible to make money while you sleep?
而且，怎么可能在睡觉的时候赚钱?
If you want to have an income, you have to work, right?
如果需要有收入，当然就得一直工作，对不对?
But no, what he said is not wrong.
不，其实他说的并没有错。
That way which he described as to make money while you sleep is called investing.
他所说的那种“在睡觉时赚钱”的方法，就是投资。
Normal middle-class use their skills and time to make money. But the rich use their money to make money. They invest the money that they own now to make ROI, which means return on investment.
普通的中产阶级靠技能和时间换钱，而有钱人是靠钱赚钱的，他们用自己现有的钱去赚取投资回报。
It’s not a hard thing to do, because there are a lot of ways to manage your personal finance.
这个方法并不难，因为理财的方式有很多。
In the past, I usually spent as much as I could earn in a month.
从前，我是一个大手大脚的月光族，每个月赚多少就花多少。
But when I saw this quote of Buffett, I suddenly realized: Isn’t that making all my efforts in vain? Because I have nothing left. I didn’t make anything for my future.
但自从看到了巴菲特的这句话，我才恍然大悟：这样一来，我每个月不就白工作了吗?因为什么都没有剩下，我并没有为自己的未来创造什么。
That’s why I started to face the truth of how I was living. And I made some bold changes and began to save money.
这也就是为什么我开始正视自己的生活方式，并进行了大刀阔斧的改变，开始存钱。
I wish that there is a day when I no longer need to work and can use money to make money.
我希望有一天能不再工作，而是用钱来赚钱。
派大海绵
I became a searcher，wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view of myself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist3 pressure to act in ways that I didn’t like any more，and I was delighted by who I really was. I came to feel much more sure that no one can ever take my place. Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special，no matter what others say or what you may think. So forget about being replaced. You can’t be. 我成了一个探寻者，想要知道自己到底是谁，又是什么让我变得独一无二。我的人生观开始改变。我需要一个坚固的基础来发展，我忍受住压力，不再做自己不喜欢做的事。而且我为真实的我感到高兴。渐渐地我越发肯定自己无可替代。 每个人在这个世界上都占有一个独一无二的位置。无论别人说什么，你自己怎么想，你都是特别的。所以，不要担心自己会被取代，因为你永远是惟一的。 Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity, however. You must make use of that opportunity. That's not up to the opportunity. That's up to you. It doesn't matter what "floor" the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do with it. 正如你需要空气来呼吸，你也需要机遇来获得成功。但是只吸进机遇的新鲜空气远远不够。你必须好好利用机遇。这并不取决于机遇本身，而是由你自己决定。你在什么时候得到机遇并不重要。重要的是你怎样把握机遇。The first snow came. How beautiful it was, falling so silently, all day long, all night long, on the mountains, on the meadows, on the roofs of the living, on the graves1) of the dead! All white save the river, that marked2) its course by a winding black line across the landscape3), and the leafless trees, that against the leaden4) sky now revealed more fully the wonderful beauty and intricacy5) of their branches! 第一场雪降临了。 真美啊！整日整夜，悄无声息地飘落，落在高山上，落在草地上，落在生者的房顶上，落在逝者的坟茔上！ 万物皆白，惟有河流蜿蜒成一条黑线穿过雪野，还有无叶的林木，衬映在铅灰色的天空下，此刻更显得枝桠交错，仪态万千。 What silence, too, came with the snow, and what seclusion6)! Every sound was muffled7); every noise changed to something soft and musical. No more trampling8) hoofs9), no more rattling10) wheels! Only the chiming11) of sleigh-bells12), beating as swift and merrily as the hearts of children. 初雪飘落时，是何等的宁谧，何等的幽静！万籁俱寂，所有的噪音都化做柔和的音乐。 再也听不见得得马蹄声，也听不见嘎嘎车轮声！ 只有雪橇的铃声如乐，似孩子们的心儿在欢快地跃动 In the entire world there's nobody like me. Since the beginning of time, there has never been another person like me. Nobody has my smile. Nobody has my eyes, my nose, my hair, my hands, or my voice. I'm special. 大千世界，芸芸众生，没人与我相同。自创世伊始，从未有过像我一样的人。没人拥有和我一样的笑容；没人拥有和我一样的眼睛、鼻子、头发、双手或声音。 我就是我。 The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree's life. He told them that they cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are — and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life — can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up. If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. 这位父亲说他们答得都对，因为他们都只看到了梨树生命中的一个季节。他告诉他们：不应仅凭一个季节来判断一棵树，一段时间来看一个人；最后，到所有的季节都已终结时，才能衡量一个人的本质——以及他生命中的快乐、喜悦和爱。 如果你在寒冬时放弃，你将失去春之希望，夏之灿烂，秋之收获。所以，不要让一时的痛苦毁弃你所有其他的快乐。 Ignore the“yes, buts”for the time being. All I want you to do right now is open your mind to the possibility that the world is made up of a countless array of experiences from the very worst to the very best. As someone once said,“A mind is like a parachute20)—it works best when open.”And here is my promise: If you open your mind, you will enjoy a more abundant and fulfilling21)life. 从现在开始忘掉“是的，但是”。现在你做的就是认识到这样一种可能性，即世界是由无数从最好到最坏的经历组成的。正如有人曾说过的：“头脑就像降落伞——在打开的时候工作得最好。”我的承诺是：如果你能够广开思路，就会享受到更加丰富、更加充实的人生。 We’re always on the go10)trying to accomplish so much, aren’s we? Getting groceries, cleaning the house, mowing the lawn — there’s always something. It’s so easy to get caught up in everyday life that we forget how simple it can be to bring cheer to ourselves and others. Giving a smile away takes so little effort and time, let’s make sure that we’ve not the one that others have to pretend is wearing an invisible smile. 我们总是忙着去尽量完成更多的事，不是吗？买东西，打扫屋子，割院子里的草——总有些什么事。这就使我们很容易在日常生活中忘记：给自己和别人带来快乐是多么简单的事情。绽放微笑花费的精力与时间很少，让我们确保自己不会成为这样的人——别人总得假装我们有看不见的笑容。The motivation to succeed comes from the burning desire to achieve a purpose. Napoleon Hill wrote, “Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.” A burning desire is the starting point of all accomplishment. Just like a small fire cannot give much heat, a weak desire cannot produce great results. 成功的行动来自于那燃烧着的想要达成目的的欲望。拿破仑•希尔写道：“成功的意念能够到达个人的构想与信念所能到达的任何地方。” 强烈的欲望是一切成功的起点，正如小火苗不能放出大量的热一样，一个微小的愿望也不能促成伟大的成就。 I have been through the depths of poverty and sickness. When people ask me what has kept me going through the troubles that come to all of us, I always reply: "I stood yesterday. I can stand today. And I will not permit myself to think about what might happen tomorrow." my time. 我曾经经历贫穷和病痛的深渊！每每人们问起我，是什么力量让我克服这些人人都会面临的困难，我总是这样回答：“我熬得过昨天，就熬得过今天。而且我决不让自己去考虑明天将会发生什么。” I have drunk the cup of life down to its very dregs7). They have only sipped the bubbles on top of it. I know things they will never know. I see things to which they are blind. It is only the women whose eyes have been washed clear with tears who get the broad vision that makes them little sisters to all the world. 我品尝了生命之杯的每一滴，包括那些渣滓，而她们仅仅只是吮到了杯口的泡沫而已。我的所知、所见，她们永远不会知晓，不会看到。 只有被泪水洗过眼睛的女人们，才能有更宽广的视野，这使她们能与整个世界的人们形同姐妹。1. The angry is that taking the other’s mistake to punish oneself. 2. The hope of tomorrow lets us forget today’s pain. 3. Shining is not the sun's patent, you also may shine. 4. The only way to obtain happiness is that, cherish what you have got and forget what you haven’t got.5. You may obtain the world with love; you also may lose the world with hate.1. 生气是拿别人做错的事来惩罚自己。 2. 明天的希望,让我们忘了今天的痛苦。3. 发光并非太阳的专利,你也可以发光。 4. 获致幸福的不二法门是珍视你所拥有的、遗忘你所没有的。 5. 你可以用爱得到全世界,你也可以用恨失去全世界。6. The true love should surmount the length of life, the width of mind and the depth of soul 7. The strength of love is big enough to cause the person to forget all, but actually as small which cannot hold just a sand of envy. 8. No matter when you start, the more importantly is that do not stop after started. No matter when you end, the more importantly is that do not regret after ended. 6. 真正的爱,应该超越生命的长度、心灵的宽度、灵魂的深度。 7. 爱的力量大到可以使人忘记一切,却又小到连一粒嫉妒的沙石也不能容纳。 8. 不论你在什麽时候开始,重要的是开始之后就不要停止.不论你在什麽时候结束,重要的是结束之后就不要悔恨。9. Entertains the highest hope, for the greatest endeavor, make the worst plan. 10. The place which the ideal is in, the hell maybe a heaven. The place which hope is in, the pain may becomes happiness.11. God never complains people’s ignorance while people actually complains the unfair of God.12. The happy life should fill the anticipation, pleasantly surprise and grateful. 9. 抱最大的希望,为最大的努力,做最坏的打算。 10. 有理想在的地方,地狱就是天堂。有希望在的地方,痛苦也成欢乐。 11. 上帝从不埋怨人们的愚昧,人们却埋怨上帝的不公平。 12. 美好的生命应该充满期待、惊喜和感激。What language is thine， O sea？ The language of eternal question. What language is thy answer， O sky？"海水呀，你说的是什么？" "是永恒的疑问。" "天空呀，你回答的话是什么？" "是永恒的沉默。 Thank the flame for its light， but do not forget the lamp holder standing in the shade with constancy of patience. Tiny grass， your steps are small， but you possess the earth under your tread.谢谢火焰给你光明，但是不要忘了那执灯的人，他是坚忍地站在黑暗当中呢。小草呀，你的足步虽小，但是你拥有你足下的土地。 I think of other ages that floated upon the stream of life and love and death and are forgotten， and I feel the freedom of passing away.我想起了浮泛在生与爱与死的川流上的许多别的时代，以及这些时代之被遗忘，我便感觉到离开尘世的自由了。如果不符合，你可以去百度文库里搜索啊。
