A Puma at large
Pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted 45 miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. However, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar. The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw 'a large cat' only 5 yards away from her. It immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered. The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place 20 miles away in the evening. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.
美洲狮是一种体形似猫的大动物，产于美洲。当伦敦动物园接到 陈述 说，在伦敦以南45英里处发现一只美洲狮时，那些陈述并没有遭到重视。可是，跟着证据越来越多，动物园的专家们感应有需要停止一番查询拜访，因为但凡声称见到过美洲狮的人们所描述的情状 竟是出奇地类似。 搜觅 美洲狮的工做是从一座小村庄起头的。那里的一位妇女在摘 摘黑莓时的看见“一只大猫”，离她仅5码远，她刚看见它，它就立即 逃走了。专家证明，美洲狮非被逼得穷途末路，是决不会伤人的。事实上搜觅 工做很困难，因为经常 是早晨在甲地发现那只美洲狮，晚上却在20英里外的乙地发现它的踪迹。无论它走哪儿，一路上总会留下一串死鹿及死兔子之类的小动物，在许多处所看见爪印，灌木丛中发现了粘在上面的美洲狮毛。有人抱怨 说夜里闻声 “像猫一样的喊 声”;一位商人往 垂钓，看见那只美洲狮在树上。专家们现在已经完全必定那只动物就是美洲狮，但它是从哪儿来的呢?因为全国动物园没有一家陈述丢了美洲狮，因而那只美洲狮必然是某位私家 收躲 饲养的，不知怎么设法逃出来了。搜觅 工做停止了好几个礼拜，但始末未能逮住那只美洲狮。想到在平静 的村落里有一头求助紧急 的野兽陆续 逍远 流窜，实令人担忧。
Mutilated ladies
Has it ever happened to you? Have you ever put your trousers in the washing machine and then remembered there was a large bank note in your back pocket? When you rescued your trousers, did you find the note was whiter than white? People who live in Britain needn't despair when they made mistakes like this and a lot of people do! Fortunately for them, the Bank of England has a team called Mutilated Ladies which deals with claims from people who fed their money to a machine or to their dog. Dogs, it seems, love to chew up money! A recent case concerns Jane Butlin whose fiancé, John, runs a successful furniture business. John had a very good day and put his wallet containing £3,000 into the microwave oven for safekeeping. Then he and Jane went horse-riding. When they got home, Jane cooked their dinner in the microwave oven and without realizing it, cooked her fiancé's wallet as well. Imagine their dismay when they found a beautifully-cooked wallet and notes turned to ash! John went to see his bank manager who sent the remains of wallet and the money to the special department of the Bank of England in Newcastle: the Mutilated Ladies! They examined the remains and John got all his money back. 'So long as there's something to identify, we will give people their money back,' said a spokeswoman for the Bank. 'Last year, we paid £1.5 million on 21,000 claims.'
那种工作在你身上呈现过吗?你有没有把裤子塞洗衣机，然后又想在裤子的后兜有一张大面值的纸币?当你把裤子夺 救出来时，你有没有发现那张纸币已经变得比白纸还白?当英国人犯那种错误时，他们没必要感应失看 (而许多国度的人都有那种失看 的觉得)。对英国人来说，值得高兴的是英国银行有一个残钞辨别组，负责理那些把钱塞进机器或塞给狗的人提出的索赔要求。看起来，狗很喜好咀嚼钱币。 比来的一个案例与简.巴特林有关，她的未婚夫约翰拥有一家生意兴隆家具店。有一天约翰的生意很好，他把一只拆有3,000 英镑的钱包放进微波炉内保留。然后，他和简一路往 骑马。回家后，简用微波炉煮了晚饭，无意中之中把她未婚夫的钱包也一路煮了。能够想像他们发现一只煮得很都雅的钱包，钞票已化成灰时的沮丧心绪 。约翰往 找银行司理，司理把约翰的钱包和纸币的残留物送到英国银行在纽卡斯尔的一个专门部分——残钞辨别组。他们判定了那些残留物。约翰拿回了他缺失 的全数数额。“只要有工具可供识别，我们会把钱还给人家的，”银行的一位女发言人说。“往 年，我们对21，000 起索赔要求付出了150万英镑。”

The facts
Editors of newspapers and magazines often go to extremes to provide their readers with unimportant facts and statistics. Last year a journalist had been instructed by a well-known magazine to write an article on the president's palace in a new African republic. When the article arrived, the editor read the first sentence and then refused to publish it. The article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall which surrounds the president's palace'. The editor at once sent the journalist a fax instructing him to find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall. The journalist immediately set out to obtain these important facts, but he took a long time to send them. Meanwhile, the editor was getting impatient, for the magazine would soon go to press. He sent the journalist two more faxes, but received no reply. He sent yet another fax informing the journalist that if he did not reply soon he would be fired. When the journalist again failed to reply, the editor reluctantly published the article as it had originally been written. A week later, the editor at last received a fax from the journalist. Not only had the poor man been arrested, but he had been sent to prison as well. However, he had at last been allowed to send a fax in which he informed the editor that he had been arrested while counting the 1,084 steps leading to the 15-foot wall which surrounded the president's palace.
报刊杂志的编纂经常 为了向读者供给成立一些关紧要的事实和统计数字而走向极端。往 年，一位记者受一家有名的杂志的拜托 写一篇关于非洲某个新成立共和国总统府的文章。稿子寄来后，编纂看第一句话就回绝予以颁发。文章的开头是如许的：“几百级台阶通向围绕 总统的高墙。”编纂立即 给那位记者发往 传实，要求他核实一级台阶确实切数字和围墙的高度。 记者立即 动身往 核实那些重要的事实，但过了好长时间不见他把数字寄来，在此期间，编纂等得不耐烦了，因为杂志立即 要复印。他给记者先后发往 两分传实，但对方毫无反响。于是他又发了一份传实，通知那位记者说，若再不敏捷回答，将被辞退。但记者仍是没有回复。编纂无法，牵强 按原样发稿了。一周之后，编纂末于接到记者的传实。阿谁同情 的记者不只被捕了，并且还被送进了监狱。不外，他末于获准发还了一份传实。在传实中他告诉编纂，就在他数通向15英尺高的总统府围墙的1，084级台阶时，被挠 了起来。
The double life of Alfred Bloggs
These days, people who do manual work often receive far more money than people who work in offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as "white-collar workers' for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of becoming white-collar workers. This can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman for the Ellesmere Corporation. When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. He simply told her that he worked for the Corporation. Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit. He then changed into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for over two years and his fellow dustmen kept his secret Alf's wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just found another job. He will soon be working in an office. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr. Bloggs', not 'Alf'.
现在，处置体力劳动的人的收进 一般要比坐办公室的人超出跨越许多。坐办公室的之所以经常 被称做“白领工人”，就是因为他们凡是是穿戴硬领白衬衫，系着领带往 上班。许多人经常 情愿舍弃 较高的薪水以换取做白领工人的殊荣，此乃人情世故。而那经常 会引起种种希罕 的现象，在埃尔斯米尔公司当清洁工的艾尔弗雷德.布洛斯就是一个例子。 艾尔弗成婚时，感应十分难为情，而没有将本身的职业告诉老婆。他只说在埃尔斯米尔公司上班。天天 早晨，他穿上一身标致的黑色西拆离家上班，然后换上工做服，当8个小时清洁工。晚上回家前，他洗个淋浴，从头换上那身黑色西服。两年多以来，艾尔弗不断如许，他的同事也为他守旧奥秘 。艾尔弗的老婆不断不晓得她嫁给了一个清洁工，并且她永久也不会晓得了，因为艾尔弗已找到薪职，不久就要坐办公室里工做了。他未来挣的钱只要他如今的一半。不外他觉得，地位升高了，缺失 点儿钱也值得。从此，艾尔弗能够一天到晚穿西服了。他人将称唤 他为“布洛格斯先生”，而不再喊 他“艾尔弗”了。

An unknown goddess
Some time ago, and interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on the Aegean island of Kea. An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city on the promontory of Ayia Irini. The city at one time must have been prosperous, for it enjoyed a high level of civilization. Houses, often three storeys high, were built of stone. They had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls. The city was equipped with a drainage system, for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets. The temple which the archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the 15th century B.C. until Roman times. In the most sacred room of temple, clay fragments of 15 statues were found. Each of these represented a goddess and had, at one time, been painted. The body of one statue was found among remains dating from the 15th century B.C. It's missing head happened to be among remains of the 5th century B.C. This head must have been found in Classical times and carefully preserved. It was very old and precious even then. When the archaeologists reconstructed the fragments, they were amazed to find that the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman. She stood three feet high and her hands rested on her hips. She was wearing a full-length skirt which swept the ground. Despite her great age, she was very graceful indeed, but, so far, the archaeologists have been unable to discover her identity.
不久之前，在爱琴海的基亚岛上，考古工做者有一项有趣的发现。一个美国考古队在阿伊亚.依里尼海角的一座古城里察看 了一座寺院。那座古城必定一度很富贵 ，因为它曾享有高度的文明，房子一般有3层楼高，用石块修建。里面房间很大，墙壁粉饰华贵 。城里以至还敷设了排水系统，因为在狭隘 的街道底下发现了许许多多陶土造造 的排水管道。 考古工做者察看 的那座寺院从公元前15世纪曲到罗马时代不断是祭奠 祈求 的场合。在庙中最神圣的一间殿堂里发现了15尊陶雕像的碎片。每一尊雕像代表一位女神，并且一度上过色。此中有一尊雕像，她的躯体是在公元前15世纪的汗青文物中发现的，而她那身异处的脑袋却恰巧 是在公元前5世纪的文物中找到的。她的脑袋必然是在古希腊罗马时代就为人所发现，并遭到精心的庇护。即便在其时，它也属汗青悠久的珍奇之物。考古工做者把那些碎片从头拼拆起来后，惊异 地发现那位女神本来是一位边幅非常摩登的女郎。她身高3英尺，双手叉腰。身穿一条挈 地长裙，虽然上了年纪，但身形确实斑斓 。不外，考古工做者至今未能确定那位女神的身份。
Thirteen equals one
Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired. The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since. One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start: the clock was striking the hours! Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck 13 times before it stopped. Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on. In the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as Bill Wilkins, our local grocer. 'Whatever are you doing up here Bill?' asked the vicar in surprise. “I'm trying to repair the bell,” answered Bill.“I've been coming up here night after night for weeks now. You see, I was hoping to give you a surprise.” 'You certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar. 'You've probably woken up everyone in the village as well. Still, I'm glad the bell is working again.' 'That's the trouble, vicar,' answered Bill. 'It's working all right, but I'm afraid that at one o'clock it will strike 13 times and there's nothing I can do about it.' 'We'll get used to that Bill,' said the vicar. '13 is not as good as one but it's better than nothing. Now let's go downstairs and have a cup of tea.'
我们教区的牧师老是为各类各样的事筹集资金。但始末未能筹足资金把教堂的钟修好。教堂的钟很大，以前不分日夜打点报时，但良多年前遭到损坏 ，从此便无声无息了。 一天夜里，我们的牧师突然 被惊醒了，大钟又在“打点”报时了!他一看表，才1点钟，可是那钟一边敲了13下才停。牧师拿着一收电筒走上钟楼想往 看看事实发作了什么工作。借着电筒光。他看见一小我，立即 认出那是当地杂货东家经比尔.威尔金斯。 “你事实在那上面干什么，比尔?”牧师骇怪 地问。 “我想把那口钟修好，”比尔答复说。“好几个礼拜了，我天天夜里到钟楼上来。嗯，我是想让你大食 一惊。” “你确实使我大食 了一惊!”牧师说，“也许同时你把村里所有的人都吵醒了。不外，钟又能报时了，我仍是很兴奋 的。” “问题就在那里，牧师，”比尔答复说。“不错，钟能报时了，但是，恐怕每到1点钟，它总要敲13下，对此我已力所不及了。” “各人渐渐就习惯了，比尔，”牧师说。“13下是不如1下好，但总比1下也不敲强。来，咱们下楼往 饮 杯茶吧。”

In early 1994, when MarkAndreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with anideathat would change the world. As a student at the University of Illinois, he andhis friends haddeveloped a program called Mosaic, which allowed people toshare information on the worldwideweb. Before Mosaic, the web had been usedmainly by scientists and other technical people,who were happy just to sendand receive text. But with Mosaic, Andreessen and his friends haddeveloped aprogram, which could send images over the web as well. Mosaic was anovernightsuccess.
It was put on the university's network at the beginning of 1993. Andby theend of the year, it had over a million users. Soon after, Andreessenwent to seek his fortune inSilicon Valley.

Advertising informs consumers about the existence and benefits ofproducts and services andattempts to persuade them to buy them. The best formof advertising is probably word ofmouth advertising which occurs when peopletell their friends about the benefits of products orservices that they havepurchased. Yet virtually no providers of goods or services relay on thisalone,which using paid advertising instead. Indeed many organizations also use institutionalorprestige advertising which is designed to build up their reputation ratherthan to sellparticular products.

Extinction is a difficult concept to grasp. It is aneternal concept. It is not at all like the killing ofindividual life forms that can be renewedthrough normal processes of reproduction. Nor issimply diminishing numbers.Nor is it damage that can somehow be remedied or for whichsome substitute canbe found. Nor is it something that only affects our own generation. Nor isit somethingthat could be remedied by some supernatural power. It is, rather, an absoluteandfinal act which there is no remedy on earth or in heaven. A species onceextinct, it's goneforever. However many generations succeed us in comingcenturies, none of them will ever seethis species that we extinguish.
Not onlyus we bring about extinction of life on a vast scale.We are also making theland and the air and sea so toxic that the very conditions of life arebeing destroyed.As regard natural resources ,not only are the none renewable resourcesbeingused up in a of frenzy of processing, consuming and disposing but we are alsoruiningmuch of our renewable resources. Such as the very solid self on which terrestriallife depends.The change that is taking place on the earth and in our minds isone of the greatest changesever to take place in human affairs. Perhaps thegreatest, since we are talking about is notsimply another historical change orcultural modification. But it change the geological andbiological as well as psychologicalorder of magnitude.

英语六级听力短文原文篇一
W: Grag Rosen lost his job as a sales manager nearly three years ago, and is still unemployed.
M: It literally is like something in a dream to remember what is like to actually be able to go outand put in a day's work and receive a day's pay.
W: At first, Rosen bought groceries and made house payments with the help fromunemployment insurance. It pays laid-off workers up to half of their previous wages whilethey look for work. But now that insurance has run out for him and he has to make toughchoices. He's cut back on medications and he no longer helps support his disabled mother. It isdevastating experience. New research says the US recession is now over. But many peopleremain unemployed and unemployed workers face difficult odds. There is literally only one jobopening for every five unemployed workers. So four out of five unemployed workers haveactually no chance of finding a new job. Businesses have downsized or shut down acrossAmerica, leaving fewer job opportunities for those in search of work. Experts who monitorunemployment statistics here in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, say about 28,000 people areunemployed, and many of them are jobless due to no fault of their own. That's where theBucks County CareerLink comes in. Local director Elizabeth Walsh says they provide trainingand guidance to help unemployed workers find local job opportunities. "So here's the jobopening, here's the job seeker, match them together under one roof," she said. But the lack ofwork opportunities in Bucks County limits how much she can help. Rosen says he hopesCongress will take action. This month he launched the 99ers Union, an umbrella organization of18 Internet-based grassroots groups of 99ers. Their goal is to convince lawmakers to extendunemployment benefits. But Pennsylvania State Representative Scott Petri says governmentssimply do not have enough money to extend unemployment insurance. He thinks the bestway to help the long-term unemployed is to allow private citizens to invest in local companiesthat can create more jobs. But the boost in investor confidence needed for the plan to workwill take time. Time that Rosen says still requires him to buy food and make monthly mortgagepayments. Rosen says he'll use the last of his savings to try to hang onto the home he workedfor more than 20 years to buy. But once that money is gone, he says he doesn't know whathe'll do.

W: Earlier this year, British explorer Pen Huddle and his team trekked for three months acrossthe frozen Arctic Ocean, taking measurements and recording observations about the ice.
M: Well we'd been led to believe that we would encounter a good proportion of this older,thicker, technically multi-year ice that's been around for a few years and just gets thicker andthicker. We actually found there wasn't any multi-year ice at all.
W: Satellite observations and submarine surveys over the past few years had shown less ice inthe polar region, but the recent measurements show the loss is more pronounced thanpreviously thought.
M: We're looking at roughly 80 percent loss of ice cover on the Arctic Ocean in 10 years,roughly 10 years, and 100 percent loss in nearly 20 years.
W: Cambridge scientist Peter Wadhams, who's been measuring and monitoring the Arctic since1971 says the decline is irreversible.
M: The more you lose, the more open water is created, the more warming goes on in that openwater during the summer, the less ice forms in winter, the more melt there is the followingsummer. It becomes a breakdown process where everything ends up accelerating until it's allgone.
W: Martin Sommerkorn runs the Arctic program for the environmental charity the WorldWildlife Fund.
M: The Arctic sea ice holds a central position in the Earth's climate system and it's deterioratingfaster than expected. Actually it has to translate into more urgency to deal with the climatechange problem and reduce emissions.
W: Summerkorn says a plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions blamed for global warmingneeds to come out of the Copenhagen Climate Change Summit in December.
M: We have to basically achieve there the commitment to deal with the problem now. That'sthe minimum. We have to do that equitably and we have to find a commitment that is quick.
W: Wadhams echoes the need for urgency.
M: The carbon that we've put into the atmosphere keeps having a warming effect for 100 years.So we have to cut back rapidly now, because it will take a long time to work its way through intoa response by the atmosphere. We can't switch off global warming just by being good in thefuture, we have to start being good now.
W: Wadhams says there is no easy technological fix to climate change. He and other scientistssay there are basically two options to replacing fossil fuels, generating energy with renewables,or embracing nuclear power.
英语六级听力短文原文篇三
M: From a very early age, some children exhibit better self-control than others. Now, a newstudy that began with about 1，000 children in New Zealand has tracked how a child's low self-control can predict poor health，money troubles and even a criminal record in their adultyears. Researchers have been studying this group of children for decades now. Some of theirearliest observations have to do with the level of self-control the youngsters displayed.Parents, teachers, even the kids themselves, scored the youngsters on measures like "actingbefore thinking" and "persistence in reaching goals. " The children of the study are now adultsin their 30s. Terrie Moffitt of Duke University and her research colleagues found that kids withself-control issues tended to grow up to become adults with a far more troubling set of issuesto deal with.
W: The children who had the lowest self-control when they were aged 3 to 10, later on had themost health problems in their 30s, and they had the worst financial situation. And they weremore likely to have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a single parent on a very lowincome.
M: Speaking from New Zealand via skype, Moffitt explained that self-control problems werewidely observed, and weren't just a feature of a small group of misbehaving kids.
W: Even the children who had above-average self-control as pre-schoolers, could havebenefited from more self-control training. They could have improved their financial situation andtheir physical and mental health situation 30 years later.
M: So, children with minor self-control problems were likely as adults to have minor healthproblems, and so on. Moffitt said it's still unclear why some children have better self-controlthan others, though she says other researchers have found that it's mostly a learned behavior,with relatively little genetic influence. But good self-control can be set to run in families in thatchildren who have good self-control are more likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperousparents.
W: Whereas some of the low-self-control study members are more likely to be single parentswith a very low income and the parent is in poor health and likely to be a heavy substanceabuser. So that's not a good atmosphere for a child. So it looks as though self-control issomething that in one generation can disadvantage the next generation.
M: But the good news is that Moffitt says self-control can be taught by parents and throughschool curricula that have proved to be effective. Terrie Moffitt's paper on the link betweenchildhood self-control and adult status decades later is published in the Proceedings of theNational Academy of Sciences.

合适背诵及听力的英语美文第一篇：a grain of sand
一粒沙子
william blake/威廉.布莱克
to see a world in a grain of sand,
and a heaven in a wild fllower,
hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
and eternity in an hour.

第二篇：love your life
热爱生活
henry david thoreau/享利.大卫.梭罗
however mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.it is not so bad as you are.it looks poorest when you are richest.the fault-finder will find faults in paradise.love your life,poor as it is.you may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.the setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.i do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.the town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.may be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,turn the old,return to them.things do not change;we change.sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不管你的生活若何猥贱，你要面临它生活，不要遁藏它，更别用恶言诅咒它。它不像你那样坏。你最富有的时候，却是看似最穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活，虽然它穷困 。以至在一个济贫院里，你也还有愉快、兴奋 、荣耀 的时候。落日反射在济贫院的窗上，像身在富户人家窗上一样亮光；在那门前，积雪同在初春熔化 。我只看到，一个沉着的人，在哪里也像在皇宫中一样，生活得心称心 足而富有愉快的思惟。城镇中的贫民，我看，倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。也许因为他们很伟大，所以受之无愧。大大都人认为他们是超然的，不靠城镇来援助他们；可是事实上他们是往往操纵了不合理的手段来对于生活，他们是毫不超脱的，毋宁是不面子的。视穷困 如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧！不要找新的把戏，无论是新的伴侣或新的衣服，来费事你本身。找旧的，回到那里往 。万物稳定，是我们在变。你的衣服能够卖掉，但要保留你的思惟。

第五篇
the life i desired
我所逃求的生活
that must be the story of innumerable couples,and the pattern of lifeof life it offers has a homely grace.it reminds you of a placid rivulet,meandering smoohtly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees,till at last it falls into the vasty sea;but the sea is so calm,so silent,so infifferent,that you are troubled suddently by a vague uneasiness.perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature,strong in me even in those days,that i felt in such an existence,the share of the great majority,something amiss.i recognized its social value.i saw its ordered happiness,but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course.there seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights.in my heart was desire to live more dangerously.i was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous,shoals it i could only have change-change and the exicitement of unforeseen.
那必然是世间无数对夫妻的生活写照，那种生活形式给人一种嫡亲之美。它使人想起一条平静 的溪流，盘曲 畅游过绿茵的草场，浓荫遮蔽，最初注进 烟波浩渺的汪洋大海；但是大海过分平静 ，过分缄默，过分若无其事，你会突然 感应莫名的不安。也许那只是我本身的一种怪诞设法，在那样的时代，那设法对我影响很深：我觉得那像大大都人一样的生活，似乎欠缺了一点儿什么。我认可那种生活有社会价值，我也看到了它那有条有理的幸福，但我血液里的激动却期看 一种更桀骜不驯的路程．如许的温馨 中似乎 有一种喊 我惊惧不安的工具．我的心期看 一种愈加惊险的生活。只要生活中还能有变迁———以及不成知的刺激，我情愿 踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖，奔赴暗礁满布的海滩。

第七篇:
the country maid and her milk can
村姑和牛奶罐
a country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head,when she fell into the following train of reflections."the money for which i shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred,these eggs,allowing for what may prove addle,and what may be destroyed by vermin,will produce at least two hundred and fifty chickens.the chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry is always dear;so that by the new year i cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown.green-let me consider-yes,green becomes my complexion best .and green it shall be, in this dress i will go to the fair,where all young fellows will strive to have me for a parter;but no-i shall refuse every one of them,and with a disdainful toss turn from them."
transported with this idea,she could not forbear acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind,when down came the can of milk!and all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment.
一个村姑头上顶着一杯牛奶在路上行走。走着走着，她的脑子里浮现出连续串的妄想 ：“我卖了那罐牛奶后，用那笔钱买鸡蛋，如许我有的鸡蛋能够增加到300个。用那300个鸡蛋孵小鸡，那就算有坏的、生虫的，至少也能孵出250只小鸡。等小鸡长大后，正好能赶上卖个好市价；那么到了新年，我就能有钱买一件新晚拆。买一件绿色的——让我好好想想——对，绿色与我的肤色最相衬。我穿上那件衣服往 赶集，所有的年轻小伙子城市夺 着邀请我做舞伴；但是不可——我要不放在眼里 地把头一扬，转身过往 不睬他们，让他们人人都碰个钉子。
她想得自得 忘形，情不自禁 地把头一扬，刹那间，牛奶罐跌了下来！她妄想 的一切幸福间幻灭了。
第八篇:
the day is cold,and dark,and dreary;
it rains,and the wind is never weary;
the vine still clings to the moldering wall,
but at every gust the dead leaves fall,
and the day is dark and dreary.
my life is cold and dark and dreary;
it rains and the wind is never weary;
my though still cling to the moldering past,
but the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
and the days are dark and dreary.
be still,sad heart!and cease repining;
behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
thy fate is the common fate of all,
into each life some rain must fall,
some days must be dark and dreary.
天冷、阴暗、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不断；
藤还高攀着颓垣残壁，
每来一阵暴风，枯叶附落纷繁，
无邪是阴暗而沉闷。
我的生活冷 冷、阴郁、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不断；
我的思惟还纠缠着磨灭的往事，
大风里，我的青春期看 相继熄灭，
无邪是阴暗而沉闷。
平静 吧，忧伤的心！别再懊悔；
乌云后面太阳仍然灿烂绚烂 ；
你命运和各人的一样，
每小我一生都得逢上阴雨，
有些日子一定阴暗而沉闷。
