    1.英語閱讀文章及翻譯 篇一
    Some people go through life standing at the excuse counter.
    They say they'd like to do this or that,but then they offer all the excuses in the world for why they can't do whatever it is.No matter what the excuses are,the only thing that is usually limiting them is their own self-perception.
    If I've learned anything,I've learned that a person —any person —may do anything they set their mind on doing.The things you need are willingness to work for what you want,patience to learn what you need to know and,most important of all,belief in yourself.You only need a seed,and then your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward.
    If your self-perception is that you can't accomplish something because you're not smart enough,then take the time to learn what you need to know,and then your self-perception will change.
    If your self-perception is that you can't accomplish something because you never finish anything you start,then go and finish something and change your self- perception.
    If your self-perception is that you're too lazy,too busy,too unworthy,too unfocused,too depressed,or too dependent on others to accomplish great things,then you're right.You are that because you believe you are,but in fact,you can change that! Life is change,and the past doesn't equal the future.Your reality today is the result of your past beliefs and actions.Change your beliefs and actions,and you will change your future.Whether you think you can or you can't,you're right.You are what you think.
    Think about that the next time you need an excuse.
    有些人的一生都在借口中度過。
    他們總是說喜歡這喜歡那,只是隨之給出各種理由來解釋他為什么沒能去做。但無論是什么借口,能限制他們行為的通常只是他們的自我認知。
    如果說我確實明白了一些事情,那就是了解了一個人,任何一個人,幾乎可以做成任何事情,只要他們下決心去做。你需要的只是為夢想而奮斗的意愿、為學習必要知識的耐心,但是最重要的是你的.自信。你只需播下一粒夢想的種子,你的信念將會隨著你一起成長。
    如果你自認為是因不夠聰明而不能完成某件事情,那么就花些時間去學習所需要的知識,這樣,你的自我認知就會改變。
    如果你自認為你不能完成某件事情常常是因為半途而廢,那么就去做完它,將這種自我認知徹底改變。
    如果你自認為是因太懶惰、太忙、太卑微、太不專心、太消沉、太依賴別人而不能做成大事,那么你是對的。英語短文你確實是這樣,因為你自己就是這樣認為的。但事實上你能夠改變。生活無時無刻不在變化,過去不等于未來。你的現(xiàn)在正是你過去所想所做的必然結(jié)果。改變你的信念和行動,成就你的將來。如果你認為你能或不能做什么,那么你是對的,因為正是你的思想造就了你。
    2.英語閱讀文章及翻譯 篇二
    Most people complain of fortune,few of nature; and the kinder they think the latter has been to them,the more they murmur at what they call the injustice of the former.
    Why have not I the riches,the rank,the power,of such and such,is the common expostulation with fortune; but why have not I the merit,the talents,the wit,or the beauty,of such and such others,is a reproach rarely or never made to nature.
    The truth is,that nature,seldom profuse,and seldom niggardly,has distributed her gifts more equally than she is generally supposed to have done.Education and situation make the great difference.Culture improves,and occasions elicit,natural talents I make no doubt but that there are potentially,if I may use that pedantic word,many Bacons,Lockes,Newtons,Caesars,Cromwells,and Marlboroughs at the ploughtail behind counters,and,perhaps,even among the nobility; but the soil must be cultivated,and the season favourable,for the fruit to have all its spirit and flavour.
    If sometimes our common parent has been a little partial,and not kept the scales quite even; if one preponderates too much,we throw into the lighter a due counterpoise of vanity,which never fails to set all right.Hence it happens,that hardly any one man would,without reverse,and in every particular,change with any other.
    Though all are thus satisfied with the dispensations of nature,how few listen to her voice! How to follow her as a guide! In vain she points out to us the plain and direct way to truth,vanity,fancy,affection,and fashion assume her shape and wind us through fairy-ground to folly and error.
    很多人抱怨命運,卻很少有人抱怨自然;人們越是認為自然對他們?nèi)蕫塾屑?,便越是嘀咕命運對他們的所謂不公。
    人們常常對命運發(fā)出詰難:我為何沒有財富、地位、權(quán)力以及諸如此類的東西;但人們卻很少或從不這樣責怪過自然:我為何沒有長處、天賦、機智或美麗以及諸如此類的東西。
    事實是,自然總是將天賦公平地分配給人們,比人們通常認為的還要不偏不倚,很少過分地慷慨!也很少吝嗇。 人與人之間的巨大差異是由于教育和環(huán)境使然。文化修養(yǎng)改良了天賦,機遇環(huán)境誘發(fā)了天賦。我們并不懷疑在農(nóng)田耕作,在柜臺后營業(yè),甚至在豪門貴族中間有很多 潛在的培根們、洛克們、牛頓們、凱撒們、克倫威爾們和馬爾伯勒們,如果允許我用“潛在的”這個學究味濃重的詞的話;但是要使果實具有它全部的品質(zhì)和風味, 還必須有耕耘過的.泥土,必須有適宜的季節(jié)。
    倘若大自然有時候有那么一點偏心,沒有將天平擺正;倘若有一頭過重,我們就會在輕的一頭投上一枚大小適當?shù)奶摌s的砝碼,它每次都會將天平重新調(diào)平,從不出差錯。因此就出現(xiàn)了這種情況:幾乎沒有人會毫無保留地和另一個人里里外外全部對換一下。
    雖然對于自然的分配,人人都感到滿意;然而肯聽聽她的忠告的人卻是如此之少!能將她當作向?qū)ФS其后的人又是如此之少!她徒然地為我們指出一條通向真理的筆直的坦途;而虛榮、幻想、矯情、時髦卻儼然以她的面貌出現(xiàn),暗中將我們引向虛幻的歧途,走向愚笨和謬誤。

    Courage
    勇氣
    The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no less amagnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must in spite ofpersonal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures and thatis the basis of all human morality.
    生活之中的勇氣,通常不會像千鈞一發(fā)時的勇氣那樣充滿戲劇性;但他人不失為是一個勝利與悲劇的壯觀組合。一個人將個人得失,障礙、危險還有壓力拋在腦后,只是做他必須做的,而這便是人類一切道德的基礎。
    To be courageous…requires no exceptional qualifications, no magic formula, no special combination of time, place andcircumstance. It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all.Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage. In whatever arena of life, one may meet the challenge of courage, whatever may bethe sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience, the loss of his friends,his fortune, his contentment, even the esteem of his fellow men, each man must decidefor himself the course he will follow. The stories of past courage can definethat ingredient, they can teach, they can offer hope, they can provideinspiration. But they cannot supply courage itself. For this each man must lookinto his own soul.
    勇敢,不需要突出的品質(zhì),不需要秘訣,不需要天時地利,每個人或早或晚都有機會。政治不過是對勇氣進行特別考驗的一個競技場而已,在人生的每一個競技場上勇氣都會前來挑戰(zhàn)。如果你跟隨你的良心,那么任何東西都可能被犧牲:朋友,財產(chǎn),滿足,甚至是別人對你的尊重。走哪條路只能由自己來決定。前人的故事可以告訴你什么叫勇敢。他們能夠教你,能夠給你希望和靈感,但不能給你真正的勇氣,要得到它你必須要發(fā)掘自己的靈魂。

    Storms Always Give Way to the Sun
    陽光總在風雨后
    What is the secret ingredient of tough people that enanble them to succeed? Why do they survive the tough times when others are overcome by them? why do they win when others lose, why do they soar when others sink?
    The answer is very simple. It is all in how they perceive their problems. Yes,every living person has problems. A problem-free life is an illsion - a mirage in the desert. Accept that fact.
    Every mountain has a peak. Every valley has its low point. Life has its ups and downs, its peaks and its valleys. No one is up all the time, nor are they down all the time. Problems do end, they are all resolved in time.
    You may not be able to control the times, but you can compose your response. You can turn your pain into provanity or into poetry. The choice is up to you. You may not have chosen your tough time, but you can choose how you will react to it. For instance, what is the positive reaction to a terrible financial setback? Would it be a positive reaction to cop out or run away? Escape through alcohol? No! Such negative reactions only produce greater problems by promising a temporary "solution" to the pressing problem. The positve solution to a problem may require courage to initiate it. When you control your reaction to the seemingly uncontrolable problem of life, then in fact you do control the problem's effect on you. Your reaction to the problem is the last word! That is bottom line. What will you let this problem do to you? It can make you tender or tough. It can make you better or bitter. It all depends on you.
    In the final analysis, tough people who survive the tough times do so because they have chosen to react positvely to their predicament. Tough times never last, but tough people do. Tough people stick it out. History teach us that each problem has a lifespan .No problem is permanent.Storms always give way to the sun. Winters always thaws into springtime. Your storm will pass. Your winter will thaw. Your problem would be solved.
    譯文:
    堅韌不拔的人成功的秘訣是什么?他們?yōu)槭裁茨芡^艱難的時刻,而其他人卻被困難所壓倒?為什么成功的是他們而失敗的人是其他人?為什么他們一飛沖天,而其他人卻深陷泥沼?
    答案很簡單,全看他們是如何看待自己面臨的難題的。不錯,人人有本難念的經(jīng)。沒有難題困擾的人生是一個幻想,是沙漠中的海市蜃樓。還是接受這個事實吧。
    每一座山都有巔峰,每一人峽谷都有深底。人生也有興衰起伏,不會有人一生都時乖命蹇,難題總有了結(jié)的一天。隨著時間的推移,一切難題都會迎刃而解。
    你也許不能控制時勢,可是你能夠冷靜應對。你既可以把痛苦轉(zhuǎn)換為怨天尤人的詛咒,也可以賦之以詩意,這全在于你自己的選擇。時運不濟的你或許無從選擇,但是你可以選擇應對的方略。譬如,遭遇一次嚴重的經(jīng)濟挫折,究竟怎么作才稱得上積極應對呢?放棄后潛逃?借酒澆愁?這樣的逃避是積極應對嗎?當然不是!這樣一些消極的反應似乎暫時解決了迫在眉睫的難題,但事實上只會招致更棘手的難題。積極的應對只能是鼓起勇氣著手解決對于人生中看似無法控制的難題。當你能夠控制自己的應對,那么你就事實上控制了難題對你的影響。你對難題的應對是至關重要的、最根本的。難題能對你產(chǎn)生什么樣的影響呢?它可以使你脆弱,也可以使你堅強,它可以使你升華,也可以使你痛苦。這全在于你自己。
    歸根結(jié)底,堅韌的人之所以能夠挺過艱難的歲月,是因為他們選擇積極地去應對困境。艱難的歲月不會沒完沒了,堅韌的人會始終不懈,堅持到底。歷史告訴我們,每一人難題都有始有終,任何難題都不會永遠存在。陽光總在風雨后。嚴冬必然會化為春光。你的暴風雨也會過去,你的冬天也會回暖。 你的難題終將解決。
