Grandpa's Bee
祖父的蜜蜂
A long time before I was born, my Grandma and Grandpa moved into the house on Beechwood Avenue. They had a young family of 4 little girls. The little girls slept in the attic in a big feather bed. It was cold there on winter night. Grandma put hot bricks under the covers at the foot of the bed to keep the little girls warm.
早在我出生以前，爷爷和奶奶搬到比奇乌大道位。他们膝下养有四个小女儿。女孩们睡在阁楼的一张大羽毛床上。那里冬夜寒冷。奶奶得在床脚下垫热砖给女儿们取暖。
During the Great Depression, work was hard to find, so Grandpa did whatever jobs he could. He dug ditches during the week and on weekend he and Grandma dug a garden lo grow some of their own food.
大萧条时期，工作很难找，爷爷什么苦工都做。在平时他，挖沟渠，周末和奶奶在花园里挖挖锄锄，种点自己的粮食。
The house on Beechwood Avenue had a big front yard with shade trees and fruit trees. In the middle of the yard was a water pump where the four little girls pumped water for cooking, cleaning and watering the garden. On one side of the yard, Grandma and Grandpa planted tomatoes, beans, squash, cucumbers, peppers and strawberries to feed their growing family. They planted roses, lilacs and irises on the other side of the yard, around the statue of the Blessed Mother.
比奇乌大道的房子有个大前院，院子里种著浓荫遮蔽的大树和果树。院中央的是个水泵，小女孩们就在这里泵水用来做饭、打扫卫生、灌溉花园。奶奶和爷爷在院子的一边种上番茄、豆子、南瓜、黄瓜、辣椒和草莓，供应这个大家庭的食用。在另一边，他们围着圣母的雕像种了玫瑰、丁香和蝴蝶花。
Everybody worked to keep the garden growing. All summer long, the family ate food from the garden and enjoyed the beautiful flowers. Grandma put up strawberry jam，tomatoes, beans, peppers, pears and peaches in canning jam. They were good to eat through the long winter.
人人都辛勤地耕种花园，使它更加茂盛。整个夏天，我们一家人吃着花园种出的食物，欣赏着花园里的美丽花朵。奶奶还把做好的草莓酱、番茄、豆子、辣椒、梨子和桃子装进罐子里，使它们的美味能保持一整个漫长的冬天。
The family grew up, and before too many years had passed, the grandchildren came to visit. Grandma and Grandpa still planted their garden every spring. Everyone still enjoyed the good food from the garden and always took some home.
多年过去，孩子们长大，孙子孙女们也来到了世上。奶奶和爷爷仍然每年春天都耕种花园。人人都能分享花园种出的好东西，也总能带上一些回家里。
Grandchildren grow up, and grandparents grow older. It became harder for Grandma and Grandpa to keep up the garden. So they made it a little *** aller. There was still plenty to eat from the garden and lovely flowers to enjoy.
孙子孙女们长大了，爷爷、奶奶年迈古稀。维护花园花去他们更多的精力，所以他们缩小了些花园的面积。但里面种出来的食物还足够吃，花朵也还招人喜爱。
Then one summer when Grandpa was eighty-nine years old, all he could do was watch from his lawn chair as the vegetables grew and the roses bloomed. Summer slowly faded, and Grandpa died before it was time to bring in the harvest.
等到爷爷八十九岁的那个夏天，他只能坐在草地的椅子上，看蔬菜长大，玫瑰开花。夏日渐渐消逝，爷爷在丰收前就去世了。
It was a lonely winter for Grandma She sat near the window, looking out at the yard and wondering if she could plant the garden in the spring. It would be hard to care for it by herself. When spring came, she planted only a little garden.
对奶奶来说，这是个寂寞的冬天。她坐在窗边，望着外边的院子，考虑著来年春天还能不能耕种花园。只靠她自己来打理太难了些。当春天来到时，她只稍微种了一点。
One sunny day in the early summer, Grandma heard a motion in the front yard and looked out the window to see a frightening sight a gigantic swarm of bees filled the air between two tall trees. There was thousands of bees in the air, so many that the swarm reached the tree-lops! The buzzing sound was tremendous. Grandma watched as the bees made their way into a hole up in one of the trees. Before long, every one of those bees had disappeared into its new home.
初夏的一天，阳光灿烂，奶奶听到前院传来一阵骚动声，她看出窗外，看到可怕的一幕。两棵大树上满满缀著大团的蜜锋。空中还飞舞著成千上万只，多不胜数的蜂群一直排到树梢上!嗡嗡声不绝于耳。奶奶看见这些蜜蜂先后钻进一棵树上高高的树洞中。很快，所有的蜜蜂都搬进新家，消失了。
Grandma wondered what in the world she could do. Should she hire someone to get rid of bees? That would cost more than she could afford. She decided to wait and think it over.
奶奶不禁发愁起来。她是否该请人清走这些蜜蜂呢?但是她，根本支付不起费用。于是她决定等一等，再想想办法。
During the next few days, the bees were busy making. their own business. Grandma could always see a few bees buzzing in and out around the opening high in the tree. Before long, she decided the bees won't bother anyone, so she went about her business and didn't give them any other thought.
随后几天，蜜蜂忙碌个不停。奶奶总能看到有一些蜂儿从高高的树洞里嗡嗡地飞进飞出。不久，她看出蜜蜂并无妨碍，于是自顾自地干活，不再理会它们。
That summer, Grandma's little garden grew and grew. The neighbors would stop to admire the huge crop of vegetables and puzzle over their own gardens weren't doing well. No matter, because Grandma had enough give some away. Of course, everyone who came to visit was treated to a meal of good things from the garden.
那年夏天，奶奶的小花国硕采累累。邻居们都驻足羡慕里面生长出丰盛的蔬菜，纳闷怎么自己花园的长势就没有这么喜人。没关系，因为奶奶有好多可以送人。登门来访的人当然都有花园里的美味来招待。
One day, Grandma's brother Frank visited from Arizona. As Grandma made Frank a delicious lunch of squash pan cakes and home made apple sauce, she told him the story about the swarm of bees.
一天，奶奶的弟弟法兰克从亚利桑那州前来拜访。奶奶给他做了一顿香喷喷的午饭，有南瓜饼，有自制的苹果酱，她还把蜜蜂的故事告诉了法兰克。
Frank said, "in Arizona, the farmers often hired beekeepers to set up beehives near their fields. The bees pollinated the crops and helped them to grow."
法兰克说在亚利桑那，农夫们常常雇请养缘人在农田附近搭蜂箱。蜜蜂校粉有助于庄稼成长。
That was when Grandma realized at her bees had helped with her garden all summer.
"奶奶才意识到，原来是这些蜜锋在夏季助成了花园的丰收。"
"So that's why my little garden had such a big crop! " she exclaimed. From that time on, Grandma always believed that since Grandpa couldn't be there to help her that summer, he had sent the bees to take his place and make Grandma's little garden grow and grow...
所以我的斗小、花园才有了大丰收!从那时开始，奶奶便相信是因为爷爷那年夏天没能亲自帮她，才派了蜜给到这里，让奶奶的小花园欣欣向荣。

Love is the Best Legacy
最好的遗产是爱
As a young man, Al was a skilled artist, a potter. He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his oldest son developed a severe stomachache. Thinking it was only some mon intestinal disorder, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But the malady was actually acute appendicitis and the boy died suddenly that night.
年轻时， Al就已经是一个技艺精湛的陶艺艺术家了。他有了妻子和两个健壮的儿子。但是一天夜里，他大儿子肚子疼得厉害，他想这也只不过是普通的肠道疾病，就没太在意，他妻子也是这样认为。然而那种病却是急性阑尾炎，这个男孩那天夜里就这么死了。
Knowing the death could have been prevented if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, Al's emotional health deleriorated under the enormous burden of his guilt. To make matters worse his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two situations were more than Al could handle, and he turned to alcohol to help him cope. In lime Al became an alcoholic.
如果他那时意识到情况的严重性，孩子的死本来是可以避免的，一想到这些 Al内心就无比愧疚，情绪也一天比一天糟糕。更糟的是，不久他的妻子抛弃了他，把他们6岁的小儿子留给了他。丧子之痛加上妾离之苦让Al无法喘息，他开始斟酒来麻痹自己，最后他成了一个名副其实的酒鬼。
As the alcoholi *** progressed, Al began to lose everything he possessed-his home, his land, his art objects, everything. Eventually Al died alone in a San Francisco motel room.
就这样喝酒度日，Al慢慢地失去了他所拥有的一切——房子，土地，艺术作品等等，最后孤独地在旧金山的一个汽车旅馆里死去。
When I heard of Al' s death, I reacted with the same disdain the world shows for one who ends his life with nothing material to show for it. "What a plete failure! " I thought. "What a totally wasted life! "
当我听说 Al的死讯时，我的反应和世人一样，都视他没有留下什么财产。"多失败啊!" 我思索著完全没有意义的一生。 "
As time went by, I began to reevaluate my earlier harsh judgment. You see, I knew Al's now *** son, Ernie. He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known. I watched Ernie with his children and saw the free flow of love between them. I knew that kindness and caring had lo e from somewhere.
随着时间的流逝，我开始重新审视从前我对Al刻薄的评价。你们知道，我认识Al已成年的儿子，Ernie。他是我认识的最善良、懂得关心人、最有爱心的男人了。每每看着他和他的孩子们，我都能感觉到他们之间爱的自然流动。我意识到这种善良和关心一定有所渊源。
I hadn't heard Ernie talk much about his father. It is so hard to defend an alcoholic. One day I worked up my courage to ask him. "I'm really puzzled by something," I said. "I know your father was basically the only one to raise you. What on earth did he do that you became such a special person?"
Ernie很少提及他的父亲，毕竟他就是想为父亲辩驳也很难。一天，我鼓起勇气问了他有些事情让我很疑惑我说道，"我知道事实上可以说是你父亲一个人抚养你成人，但是他是怎样把你培养成这么特别的一个人呢?"
Ernie sat quietly and reflected for a few moments. Then he said, "From my earliest memories as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, 'I love you, son.
Ernie坐在那里沉思了一会，说道从我还是孩子时最早的回忆到 18岁离开家， Al每天晚上都会来到我的房闭，吻我一下然后对我说:‘我爱你，儿子’"。
Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
听到这些，我抑制不住自己，眼泪涌出来了，我认识到自己是多么的愚蠢，居然认为Al是个失败的人。他确实没留下什么物质遗产，但是他曾经是一个很有爱心的父亲，是我认识的最好的、最有爱心的人。

There have always been people who have believed that lifelong learning is a worthwhileprocess. Increasingly, scientific research is proving them correct and technology is making iteasier – adults can now take online college classes for the rest of their lives. Even better, thisprocess makes the neighboring areas of the brain more resilient as well. This means thatlearning can make what you already know stronger, too.
总是很多人都认为，要活到老学到老，终身学习是值得的。科学研究不断发现，这种想法是正确的。并且科学技术正使得这种想法实现起来更加简单——成年人现在就可以在网上学习大学的课程，想学多长时间都可以。更妙的是，学习的这个过程会让大脑的分周边区域也更加富有弹性，这意味着学习也会让你更深入地了解已经知道的内容。
So, without further ado, here are ten more reasons why you should always keep learning:
因此，事不宜迟，看看你应该持续学习的十个理由吧。
Boredom. Most people feel bored when they aren't challenged and boredom is thenumber one cause of bad decisions. If you're constantly learning new things, you'll be lessprone to disinterest. And, in today's world, there are plenty of opportunities to enrichyourself.
1.打发无聊时光。当觉得所做的工作没有挑战性时，大部分人就会感到无聊。而无聊是做出糟糕决策的首要原因。如果你在不断地学习新的内容，一般是不会兴趣索然的。在当今的世界中，你有很无数的机会来充实自己。
Your Brain Healthy. A 2010 study out of the University of California at Irvine revealedthat learning keeps your brain functioning at a high level. Just like you need to exercise yourbody's muscles and cardiovascular system, you need to exercise your brain to keep it in tip-topshape.
2.让大脑保持健康。2010年在加州大学欧文分校的一项研究表明，学习会让你的大脑以较高的水平进行运转。就像你需要锻炼身体肌肉和心血管系统一样，你也需要锻炼大脑，让它处于最佳状态。
Your Career. If you learn new work-related skills, you'll be more likely to get apromotion or raise. And, with the rise of online education, you can even enroll in certifiedprograms that allow you to learn and improve your career during your off-hours.
3.发展事业。 如果你学习和工作相关的新技能，你更有可能加薪升职。并且，随着在线教育的崛起，你甚至可以参加认证课程，在下班时间里学习和改善自己的职业生涯。
4. Model Positive Behavior for Your Kids. If you expect your children to focus in school and takethe time to learn their lessons, you should exhibit the same commitment to self-improvement in your daily life.
4.为你的孩子树立积极的行为榜样。如果你希望孩子在学校里能专心学习并花时间去学习课程，在日常生活里，你也应该致力于自我改善。
5. Fight Alzheimer's Disease. According to Science Daily, continued learning can slow thephysical process of Alzheimer's Disease. You'll be healthier longer.
5.对抗老年痴呆症。据《每日科学》报道，持续学习会减慢老年痴呆症的物理变化过程。 这样你身体健康的时间会更长一些。
6. Keep in Touch With The World. If you don't know the latest fashion, comedy and newstrends, you'll sound outdated and out-of-touch. By trying new things and learning new ideas, you'll better be able to relate to those around you.
6.与世界同步。如果你不知道最新的流行趋势、喜剧和新闻，人们就会觉得你落伍了。尝试一些新的事物，学习一些新的想法，你能更好地处理身边的关系。
7. Find and Increase Your Pleasure. Learning isn't necessarily a chore. If you're interested in ahobby such as cooking, learning new recipes and cooking processes can be enjoyable. It canmake you appreciate your hobby even more.
7.发现并增加自己的乐趣。学习并不一定是枯燥的。如果你有某种爱好比如厨艺，学学新的菜谱和做菜的流程，会让你感觉很愉快。这样你会更加喜欢自己的爱好。
8. Look at the World with Fresh Eyes. Scientists believe that much of what is called creativity issimply the ability to apply skills learned in one setting to problems in another setting. If you'realways learning, this means that when you face a familiar problem, you may be able to come atit with an unorthodox solution, based on your new knowledge.
8.用崭新的视角来观察世界。 科学家们相信，所谓创造性，绝大程度上是把一种环境中学到的技能应用到了另外一种环境中。如果你总在学习，那么当你遇到一个熟悉的问题时，你很可能利用所学的新知识，使用一种非传统的解决方案来解决问题。
9. Keep Abreast of Technology. Computers become obsolete within a few years. If you're notconstantly learning new things about technology, you're falling behind. Which means you'llmiss out on social, business and technological opportunities, simply because you didn't keepup.
9.紧跟科技潮流。计算机在几年内就可能过时。如果你不经常学习和科技相关的新事物，那你就落伍了。你会错过社交、商业和科技上的机遇，而这一切仅仅是因为你没有跟上科技的潮流而已。
the Greats are Doing It. Think of anyone, in any field, who is truly brilliant at what theydo. They got where they are through constant self-improvement. Truly talented people areconstantly learning and implementing new skills. It's worth joining them in this passion.
10.所有的成功人士都在学。随便想想，在任何领域非常突出的人士，他们都是通过不断的自我提高才成功的。真正有才华的人们都在不断地学习并应用新的技能。和他们一样保持学习的激情，是非常值得的。
There are plenty of fabulous reasons to keep learning new things, regardless of what they are. Forming new connections in your brain doesn't have to be difficult, though it would certainly bea good idea to make sure it was some of the time. Now, it’s time to go out there and just do it.
阅读能力高低直接影响我们接受外界信息和理解阅读资料的质量。对中学生而言，阅读效率高不仅阅读的速度要快，而且理解水平也要好。那么，阅读能力的提高显得非常重要。我整理了英语课外小短文带翻译，欢迎阅读!
People in the world is looking for happiness, but they don't know what is happiness. Some home very rich man said: "happiness is money." Also some people who have the power said: "happiness is power." But happiness is not money and power, remember a celebrity once said a words: "money and greed is not the happiness in the world."
It was over a weekend, I play on the bridge. Suddenly, I saw an old man is hard uphill in the cart. I saw this, ran in the past, to help grandpa pushed the car up the slope. Grandpa laughed happily said to me: "thank you!" I said: "don't mention it, lift a finger, everybody is responsible for", "at this point, my heart is full of sunshine, maybe this is happiness.
Also, in the earthquake. Although I only donate ten yuan, if everyone in the country to donate for 10 yuan, that will be seen the smiling faces of the innocent and lovely one children and those who have no home to rebuild their homes. This is a Chinese people's spirit of solidarity, to our compatriots in the future must be a beautiful and harmonious home! At this moment, I feel happy again.
Although this is just a small two things, but it makes me feel the happiness. And celebrity once said: "don't pay any costs and get happiness, that is a myth." As long as you give time to love, to help others, happiness will always be at your side!
世界上的人都在寻求幸福，但是，他们却不知道幸福是什么。有些家里很有钱的人说：“幸福是金钱。”还有些有权力的人说：“幸福是权力。”但幸福不是金钱和权力，记得有位名人说过一句话：“金钱和享受的贪求不是幸福。”
那是在一个周末，我在小桥上玩。突然，我看到一位老爷爷正推着车子艰难地上坡。我看见了，赶快跑过去，帮老爷爷把车子推上了坡。老爷爷笑咪咪地对我说：“谢谢你啊!”我说：“不用谢，‘举手之劳，人人有责’嘛，”此时，我心里充满了阳光，可能这就是幸福吧。
还有，在大地震中。虽然我只捐了十元钱，如果全国每个人都捐了十元钱，那看到的将是孩子们一张张天真可爱的笑脸和那些没有家的人重建家园。这是中国人民同胞的团结精神，将来的一定是美丽而又和谐的大家园!此时此刻，我又感到了幸福。
虽然这只是小小的两件事情，但它却使我感到了幸福。还有位名人说过：“想不付出任何代价而得到幸福，那是神话。”只要你时刻都去奉献爱心、帮助别人，幸福会永远在你的身边!
"I really will be drowned?" Looking at the sea in the mountain of reflection, slender wings and soft light and thin, hollow eyes wood but hesitate, seawater twist waste water waves the pale face with a smile a little crumpled, fuzzy hurriedly drove young foot back in the cold.
Actually I am jingwei, jingwei after one thousand two hundred, just as I was ruthless time to grade the misery, destined to try my best to fill and level up the sea with a bang, but will that do? I'm just a bird, a YuChi did not work, without the exercise of the birds!
Knew oneself will perish sooner or later, after all, he is the daughter of emperor yan! No one want me to disappear, no one want to feather fall amount, no human soul devouring dissipate, white feathers in the disorderly winds do exceptionally mottled, meets the bitter sea smell faint spit in the villi, the taste of blood.
I am afraid of the sea, deep blue ghost is my eternal nightmare, shivering body, eyes lost their protection of the purple dream, jump, roll, sea black ice tongue scraping and messy wings, give it up, repeating 1010 a movement, however just startled look back, there is no way back.
Has been in the escape, all about grade terrible, like competition and the sea, with one of the competition, the boring scores, even DuoRu still leaning regardless of grade 3, although growth in the seaside, but must shrink into the volute in the same calendar, hope no end of the past.
"There will be choice?" Heart completely cold, now, "survival or death, don't like it, and must do, suddenly jump, like a moth to the magnificent, calm and steady into the distance...
“我真的会被淹死吗?”定定的看着海山中的倒影，纤细的羽翼柔亮而稀疏，空洞的双目木然而迟疑，海水拧笑着挥霍水浪把苍白的脸一点点揉碎，模糊在冰冷中逼得幼嫩的脚慌忙后退。
其实我就是精卫，一千二百年后的精卫，就像我被无情的时光赶到初三这片苦海上，注定要尽全力轰轰烈烈填平死海，可是能行吗?我只是一只鸟，一只羽翅未干，未经磨炼的鸟儿啊!
早就知道自己迟早会灭亡的，毕竟自己是炎帝之女啊!没有人希望我灰飞烟灭，没有人想要残羽凋零飘飞，没有人欲看灵魂吞噬消散，洁白的羽毛在乱风摧残中格外斑驳，苍苦的海腥味在绒毛中幽幽吐出，如血的味道。
我是惧怕海的，深蓝的幽灵是我永远的梦魇，身体瑟瑟发抖，眼睛失去了保护的梦幻紫色，海轻蔑的跳跃、翻滚，幽黑的冰舌撕扯着凌乱的翅膀，放弃吧，重复着一千一零一次的动作，然而回头才愕然，后面已经没有路了。
一直在逃避，关于初三的一切可怕，像与海的竞争，你追我赶的争夺，枯燥乏味的分数，哪怕踱入初三依旧埋头不顾，虽在海边成长，可却偏偏缩入蜗壳守着不变的日历，盼望没有尽头的过去。
“还有选择吗?”心彻底冰凉，如今，“生存或死亡”，不喜欢，也必须做，倏地一跃而起，宛如飞蛾扑火的壮丽，平静而坚定的投向远方……
Today, I read the fairy tale "jingwei reclamation".
Originally, yan's daughter, called jingwei, she is very big, small effort often followed her father - yan emperor out of the city, hunting, hands and feet are very flexible.
One day, she saw the son of the dragon king - three prince, prince, said: "I am the son of the dragon king, what are you from?" Jingwei said: "I am the daughter of emperor yan, you have what fantastic." Say that finish, she USES the foot kicks, a hard kick a ball clay by three prince's mouth, three prince gas fire emit three zhangs, but there is no way he jingwei, had to depressed to the back of the east China sea.
After a period of time, jingwei water to play. Three prince saw, exulting in the heart, the heart thinks: "I the day of vengeance is finally here. Then he drowned jingwei. After the death of jingwei turned into a bird. From then on, every day she go to xishan fetch some stones, wood, into the east China sea. She didn't want to let people drown to the east China sea.
This is the famous "jingwei reclamation" myth.
今天，我读了《精卫填海》的神话故事。
原来，炎帝的小女儿叫精卫，她从小力气就很大，常常跟着她的父亲—炎帝出城打猎，手脚也很灵活。
有一天，她看见了龙王的儿子—三太子，三太子说：“我是龙王的儿子，你是什么人?”精卫说：“我还是炎帝的女儿呢，你有什么了不起。”说完，她用脚使劲一踢地，把一团泥巴踢到了三太子的嘴里，三太子气的火冒三丈，但他拿精卫没有办法，只好垂头丧气的回东海。
过了一段时间，精卫下水去玩。三太子见了，心里暗喜，心想：“我报仇的日子终于来了”。于是他就把精卫淹死了。精卫死后，变成了一只小鸟。从此，她每天都去西山叼回些石子、木块，丢到东海里。她不想再让去东海的人们被淹死。
这就是著名的《精卫填海》的神话故事。

课外阅读2
There have always been people who have believed that lifelong learning is a worthwhileprocess. Increasingly, scientific research is proving them correct and technology is making iteasier – adults can now take online college classes for the rest of their lives. Even better, thisprocess makes the neighboring areas of the brain more resilient as well. This means thatlearning can make what you already know stronger, too.
总是很多人都认为，要活到老学到老，终身学习是值得的。科学研究不断发现，这种想法是正确的。并且科学技术正使得这种想法实现起来更加简单——成年人现在就可以在网上学习大学的课程，想学多长时间都可以。更妙的是，学习的这个过程会让大脑的分周边区域也更加富有弹性，这意味着学习也会让你更深入地了解已经知道的内容。
So, without further ado, here are ten more reasons why you should always keep learning:
因此，事不宜迟，看看你应该持续学习的十个理由吧。
Boredom. Most people feel bored when they aren't challenged and boredom is thenumber one cause of bad decisions. If you're constantly learning new things, you'll be lessprone to disinterest. And, in today's world, there are plenty of opportunities to enrichyourself.
1.打发无聊时光。当觉得所做的工作没有挑战性时，大部分人就会感到无聊。而无聊是做出糟糕决策的首要原因。如果你在不断地学习新的内容，一般是不会兴趣索然的。在当今的世界中，你有很无数的机会来充实自己。
Your Brain Healthy. A 2010 study out of the University of California at Irvine revealedthat learning keeps your brain functioning at a high level. Just like you need to exercise yourbody's muscles and cardiovascular system, you need to exercise your brain to keep it in tip-topshape.
2.让大脑保持健康。2010年在加州大学欧文分校的一项研究表明，学习会让你的大脑以较高的水平进行运转。就像你需要锻炼身体肌肉和心血管系统一样，你也需要锻炼大脑，让它处于最佳状态。
Your Career. If you learn new work-related skills, you'll be more likely to get apromotion or raise. And, with the rise of online education, you can even enroll in certifiedprograms that allow you to learn and improve your career during your off-hours.
3.发展事业。 如果你学习和工作相关的新技能，你更有可能加薪升职。并且，随着在线教育的崛起，你甚至可以参加认证课程，在下班时间里学习和改善自己的职业生涯。
4. Model Positive Behavior for Your Kids. If you expect your children to focus in school and takethe time to learn their lessons, you should exhibit the same commitment to self-improvement in your daily life.
4.为你的孩子树立积极的行为榜样。如果你希望孩子在学校里能专心学习并花时间去学习课程，在日常生活里，你也应该致力于自我改善。
5. Fight Alzheimer's Disease. According to Science Daily, continued learning can slow thephysical process of Alzheimer's Disease. You'll be healthier longer.
5.对抗老年痴呆症。据《每日科学》报道，持续学习会减慢老年痴呆症的物理变化过程。 这样你身体健康的时间会更长一些。
6. Keep in Touch With The World. If you don't know the latest fashion, comedy and newstrends, you'll sound outdated and out-of-touch. By trying new things and learning new ideas, you'll better be able to relate to those around you.
6.与世界同步。如果你不知道最新的流行趋势、喜剧和新闻，人们就会觉得你落伍了。尝试一些新的事物，学习一些新的想法，你能更好地处理身边的关系。
7. Find and Increase Your Pleasure. Learning isn't necessarily a chore. If you're interested in ahobby such as cooking, learning new recipes and cooking processes can be enjoyable. It canmake you appreciate your hobby even more.
7.发现并增加自己的乐趣。学习并不一定是枯燥的。如果你有某种爱好比如厨艺，学学新的菜谱和做菜的流程，会让你感觉很愉快。这样你会更加喜欢自己的爱好。
8. Look at the World with Fresh Eyes. Scientists believe that much of what is called creativity issimply the ability to apply skills learned in one setting to problems in another setting. If you'realways learning, this means that when you face a familiar problem, you may be able to come atit with an unorthodox solution, based on your new knowledge.
8.用崭新的视角来观察世界。 科学家们相信，所谓创造性，绝大程度上是把一种环境中学到的技能应用到了另外一种环境中。如果你总在学习，那么当你遇到一个熟悉的问题时，你很可能利用所学的新知识，使用一种非传统的解决方案来解决问题。
9. Keep Abreast of Technology. Computers become obsolete within a few years. If you're notconstantly learning new things about technology, you're falling behind. Which means you'llmiss out on social, business and technological opportunities, simply because you didn't keepup.
9.紧跟科技潮流。计算机在几年内就可能过时。如果你不经常学习和科技相关的新事物，那你就落伍了。你会错过社交、商业和科技上的机遇，而这一切仅仅是因为你没有跟上科技的潮流而已。
the Greats are Doing It. Think of anyone, in any field, who is truly brilliant at what theydo. They got where they are through constant self-improvement. Truly talented people areconstantly learning and implementing new skills. It's worth joining them in this passion.
10.所有的成功人士都在学。随便想想，在任何领域非常突出的人士，他们都是通过不断的自我提高才成功的。真正有才华的人们都在不断地学习并应用新的技能。和他们一样保持学习的激情，是非常值得的。
There are plenty of fabulous reasons to keep learning new things, regardless of what they are. Forming new connections in your brain doesn't have to be difficult, though it would certainly bea good idea to make sure it was some of the time. Now, it’s time to go out there and just do it.
1、《小橘灯》
《小橘灯》是作家冰心创作的散文，是其晚期代表作品之一。文章形象地刻画了一位在艰难的生活逆境中渴望光明的善良坚强的农家少女的形象。作者从小处着手，选取了小姑娘打电话、照看妈妈、与“我”攀谈、做小橘灯送“我”这几件平凡的事情，由表及里，由浅入深，层层推进，
将一个早熟、坚强、勇敢、乐观、善良、富于内在美的乡村贫苦少女的形象描绘得有血有肉、惟妙惟肖。作者在叙事之后所写的一段抒情文字，是全篇的点睛之笔，它深化了主题，揭示了小橘灯的象征意义——象征着蕴藏在人民心中的希望和火种，象征着光明。
2、《从百草园到三味书屋》
《从百草园到三味书屋》是鲁迅于1926年写的一篇童年妙趣生活的回忆性散文，此文被收入《朝花夕拾》。全文描述了色调不同，情韵各异的两大景片：百草园和三味书屋。
作者写百草园，以“乐”为中心，以简约生动的文字，描绘了一个奇趣无穷的儿童乐园，其间穿插“美女蛇”的传说和冬天雪地捕鸟的故事，动静结合，详略得当，趣味无穷。
3、《我的老师》
节选自《魏巍散文集》，作者在原文中以一个儿童的眼光和心理，回忆了儿时在温柔慈爱的蔡芸芝老师身边发生的几件事，表达了对老师深切的热爱、崇敬和感激之情，突出蔡老师纯洁、美好的心灵。
4、《卖火柴的小女孩》
卖火柴的小女孩》是丹麦童话故事作家安徒生的一篇的童话故事，发表于1846年。主要讲了一个卖火柴的小女孩在富人合家欢乐，举杯共庆的大年夜冻死在街头的故事。
小女孩死了，嘴角却带着微笑，通过擦燃火柴的美好幻想与她饥寒交迫的现实生活形成了鲜明的对比。安徒生通过这个童话，表达了对穷苦人民悲惨遭遇的深刻同情，和对当时社会的不满，无情地揭示了资本主义社会的黑暗和罪恶。
5、《背影》
是现代作家朱自清（1898-1948）于1925年所写的一篇回忆性散文。这篇散文叙述的是作者离开南京到北京大学，父亲送他到浦口火车站，照料他上车，并替他买橘子的情形。
在作者脑海里印象最深刻的，是他父亲替他买橘子时在月台爬上攀下时的背影。作者用朴素的文字，把父亲对儿女的爱，表达得深刻细腻，真挚感动，从平凡的事件中，呈现出父亲的关怀和爱护。
普通的英语文学书籍，都不适合高中生去看。英文文学作品中的用词通常来说都比较生僻，即使是英语专业八级毕业的学生，看这些英文原版书的时候，还是会感觉比较吃力。在书籍中的用词也不是常用的词汇。对于高考帮助非常的有限。
适合高中生难度以及水平的英语文字资料推荐21世纪英文报。以前高考在出题的时候，就有引用过21世纪英文报晚年的文章。对于高考会有一定的帮助。
并且21世纪英文报是按照报纸的规格来进行编写，他的内容都是紧扣时事的。对于一部分没有条件上网看电视的高中生来说，通过21世纪英文报来了解外部发生的事情，对于自己的学习也会有很大的帮助，因为像英语语文还有政治历史的出题，都是会跟时事相结合的。
21世纪英文报上还有大家最害怕的科技文。通过大量阅读科技文章，对于高考中阅读题里面的科技文得分也会有很大的帮助。此外21世纪英文报还可以训练大家的阅读速度。想要达到高考英语卷子在考试结束前半个小时以上完成卷子的话，通常来说一份8页的21世纪英文报要求在一个小时之内读完。
21世纪英文报的单词基本上不超过属于高考范围内的，并且会有大量的词组短语。我们在高考备考的过程中，通过背3500单词和高中英语万考点，可以对高考范围内的单词和短语有一定的熟悉，通过阅读21世纪英文报，在实战的环境下读到自己记忆过的内容，那么对于那些出现概率比较大的单词和词组短语，就会有更强的记忆。这样更容易拿到140以上的高分。
一个高中生其实有很多的英文书籍可以看，比如说一些简明的英语小说，篇幅并不是很长，但是单词量也具备一些。所以说，你可以选择阅读一些名著的缩写本，或者一下小说的简明版本，都可以得到很好的提高。另外还有一些科技类的或者是一些像读者文摘以前那个版本的读物，另外各种英文报纸也可以去阅读的，这对于英语的提高都有很多的益处。
让孩子读英语书的目的其实是让孩子有更传统的英语语境和语感，这就是老美常常可以明显的区分，那些文章是新移民写的，那些是从小长在美国的人写的，那就是很多的习惯用语会完全不同，所以如果你是这个目的的话，建议让孩子不是看英语原版书，而是看海外的英文报纸，杂志以及新闻，因为原本书中太多的语法和用词，在普通时候，99%的老外是绝对不可能去用的。
举例，比如老美如果在餐厅买单时，会说check，但是在书里面，没有一本书会这么写买单，所以如果你是为了应付国内的考试，那英语原版书有用，如果是为了孩子以后在海外生活，或者更融入西方的语言中，英语原版书则无用
英语周报 学英语 英语沙龙 疯狂英语（中学版）---杂志 新概念英语----本人特别喜欢! 我也是读高中的,其实学好英语重点在于多练多读吧~ 祝我们都成功啦!
《Reader's Digest》，《Vanity Fair》，《The Economist》，Wired，1843 Magazine ，这些都比较适合学生们看。
英语周报，英语广场，中学生英语。英语辅导报，21世纪学生英语报，这些就是比较适合学生阅读的英文杂志。
朗读是学生 学习英语 的一种有效的 方法 ;是提高听、说、读、写综合能力的一种行之有效的途径。下面是我带来的英文朗读 文章 ，欢迎阅读!

A Million Dollar Lesson
价值百万美元的一课
A cab driver taught me a million dollar lesson on customer satisfaction and expectation.
一位出租车司机给我上了一堂价值百万美元的课——关于顾客的满意度与期望值。
Motivational speakers charge thousands of dollars to impart his kind of training to corporate executives and staff. It cost me a $12 taxi ride.
讲成功学的老师给公司的高层和员工做一次这样的培训要收上几千美元，而我只花了12美元的出租车费。
I had flown into Dallas for the sole purpose of calling on a client. Time was of the essence and my plan included a quick turnaround trip from and back to the airport. A spotless cab pulled up.
我飞来达拉斯只是为了 拜访 一位客户。时间就是生命，我计划拜访他之后急速返回机场。一辆一尘不染的出租车停了下来。
The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door. As he got in the driver's seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me was for my use. He then showed me several tapes and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.
司机迅速下车为我打开客座车门，等我舒服地坐好后才把车门关上。在驾驶座上坐定之后，他告诉我，放在我旁边的那份叠得整齐的《华尔街日报》是供我翻阅的。然后，他又将几盒磁带递给我，问我喜欢什么样的音乐。
Well! I looked around for "Candid Camera!" Wouldn't you? I could not believe the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, "Obviously you take great pride in your work. You must have a story to tell
噢!我环顾四周，看偷拍相机藏在哪里!如果你遇到这样的情形，恐怕你也会这样做!我简直不敢相信有这等服务!我趁机说：“看得出你为自己的工作感到非常自豪，这其中一定有 故事 吧。”
You bet, he replied, "I used to be in Corporate America. But I got tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to find my niche in life where I could feel proud of being the best I could be. ”
“没错，”他回答道，“我以前曾在一家大公司上班，但是无论怎么努力也达不到别人的要求，我厌倦了这种生活。于是，我决定为我的人生开创属于自己的一片新天地，在那里我能做到最好，并为此感到自豪。
I knew I would never be a rocket scientist, but I love driving cars, being of service and feeling like I have done a full day's work and done it well. I evaluated my personal assets and... wham! I became a cab driver.
“我知道成不了火箭专家，但我喜欢开车，喜欢为他人服务，喜欢完成了一天的工作并且干得出色的那种感觉。我算了下我手头的资产。。。嗯，然后，我开上了出租车。”
One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I could simply meet the expectations of my passengers. But, to be great in my business, I have to exceed the customer's expectations! I like both the sound and the return of being 'great' better than just getting by on 'average'.
“有一件事我深信不疑，想在这个行当中做得好，只要满足乘客的期望就行了。而要想干得很好，我就必须超出顾客的期望!我不满足于仅仅以一般服务打发日子，我喜欢顾客对我优质服务的赞誉和因此得到的回报。”

The Blessing Tree
祈愿树
I had gone into a supervisor's office to talk about a couple of issues that needed to be addressed. She, like all of the men and women in her department, had been through the proverbial "ringer." The stress was so intense, one could almost taste it.
我走进一位主管的办公室，和她讨论一些需要处理的事情。所有在这个部门工作的人，都像俗语所说的“被上了套”，她也不例外。他们所承受的压力之大，让人体会得到。
I had been assisting the department during a crunch period of being very short-handed, and was watching everyone get close to burn-out. When I inquired about her state of mind, she confessed that her home life was almost non-existant, because she was "zombieing through the evening". The next words out of her mouth expressed a frustration of my own: "This work is not my gift from God. My family is!"
我在这个部门人手不足的危急时刻来这儿帮忙，亲眼目睹了每个人都接近于精疲力竭的状态。当我问及她的精神状态时，她坦言自己几乎没有家庭生活，每天早晨醒来，她都像一具经过夜晚起死回生的行尸走肉。她接下来说的话也是我在受挫时想说的：“这份工作不是上帝给我的礼物。我的家庭才是!”
I had heard of hanging all of one's problems from the office on a "Trouble Tree" while driving home, to be picked up on the way back to the office in the morning, and for a brief second thought about suggesting that scenario.
我曾经听说过在下班开车回家之前把一个人在办公室遇到的所有难题都挂在一个“烦恼树”上，第二天早晨上班时再把它们拿下来。我思考片刻，想告诉她这个办法。
But what came out was: "Why don't we do something different? Let's have a Blessing Tree. On the way home in the evening, we could pull down a blessing to dwell on a character trait we adore in our spouse, a particular reason we love them, the love they or our children have for us. The list could be endless."
但是我说出口的是：“我们为什么不能做点与众不同的事呢?让我们种一颗‘祈愿树’，每天晚上回家之前获得一个愿望，祈求我们的爱人拥有我们所喜欢的性格特征，祈求我们因为某个特殊的理由爱他们，祈求我们的爱人和孩子对我们的爱。肯定有列不完的东西。”
When I tried it on the way home that night, the stress seemed to melt away. There was a "spring in my step" and when I arrived, a smile of joy and contentment was bubbling up from within! For the first time in 2 weeks, I was overjoyed to greet my wife and children!
那天晚上我走在回家的路上，压力好像消失了。我的步伐似乎也轻快起来，当我回到家时，我脸上浮起了微笑，这微笑源自内心的喜悦和满足。两个星期以来，我第一次为和妻子、孩子打招呼而感到由衷的高兴。
The Blessing Tree could make a major difference in your evenings, especially after those really tough days.
祈愿树使你的夜晚和以前截然不同，尤其是在那些艰难的日子之后。

On warm evenings I often sat in the boat playing the flute, and saw the perch swimming around me. I saw the moon traveling over the bottom of the lake, which was strewn1 with the fallen leaves and branches.
天气晴和的夜晚,我也常独驾一舟,弄笛湖上,看水中的鲈鱼饶舟不去。俯视湖底,落木坠枝,横斜交错,皓月一轮,行径其上。
Once, I used to come to this pond in dark summer nights with a friend. We would make a fire there, which we thought attracted the fishes. Late in the night, we threw the burning firewood high into the air, which, when it came down into the pond, went out with a loud hissing. And we were suddenly in total darkness. Then, whistling a tune, we made our way to the village again. But now I had made my home by the shore.
以前,在那些深黝的夏日夜晚,我曾不止一次与友人寻胜至此。我们总是先在岸边燃起一堆篝火,我们认为此法最能把鱼招来。待到夜色渐深,我们便把那尚未燃尽的木柴像烟火似地抛入暗空,一阵闪亮之后,缀湖澌灭,嗤然有声。然后长啸一曲,摸黑寻回村落。不过我最近索性就迁居到那里,傍湖而居了。
Sometimes, after the family had all gone to bed, I returned to the woods. Partly for the next day’s dinner, I spent the hours of midnight fishing from a boat by moonlight. At this time, I heard owls and foxes serenade, along with the singing of some unknown birds. These experiences were very memorable and valuable to me. In the center of the water, there were sometimes thousands of small perch and shiners, breaking the surface with their tails. I sometimes threw a line into the pond as I drifted in the gentle night breeze, now and then feeling a slight shaking along it. Pulling the line out of the pond, I saw a perch wriggling in the air.(excerpt)
有时,待家人睡去,我又重新返回林中。半为明日的食物筹措,我于夜半自操一舟,趁着月色,独钓湖上。这时鸱鸣狐啸,伴着一两声怪鸟的戛鸣。回想这些夜游,至今历历难忘。在水中央,鲈鱼银鱼成群,不啻千百,翻舞嬉戏,不时在湖面翻起层层涟漪。有时,于夜风习习之中,我将钓丝投入湖里,但不时忽觉手下一丝微颤。轻轻将线一扯,只见一只鲈鱼在半空中活蹦乱跳。(节选)
Life is full of decisions and most people take their lifetime to master the ability to make one.
生活中,许多事情需要我们做出决定,因此,许多人用一生的时间去学习掌握做决定的能力。
Each of us makes decisions daily, such as what clothes to wear, what to eat, and what to drink. We’re all excellent at judging other people’s decisions. But what about our own decisions? What about the decisions each of us makes, such as going to college, quitting college, quitting a job for another one and so on? These are life-defining moments that create two different life paths. None of these decisions should be taken lightly.
每个人每天都要做决定,如决定穿什么、吃什么、喝什么。我们都擅长判断别人的决定,但你擅长判断自己的决定吗?我们自己做的决定怎么样?如上学、退学、辞职另谋新生等等。这些都是对人生有界定意义、会创造两种不同人生道路的时刻,每一个都不能怠慢。
Although we are all skillful at judging others, we should spend some time to get comfortable with ourselves to make decisions without the fear of judgment. Judgment comes from insecurity3. Each insecurity that we have moves us further and further to make a good decision. In order to control our insecurities we need to identify them and be comfortable with ourselves. To accomplish that we can all use some help. You may get it from a friend or a family member.
即使擅长判断别人的决定,我们也应该花些时间让自己应付自如地做决定,而且不必害怕做出判断。判断力来自于不安全感。我们的每一个不安全感都会推动我们去做出正确的决定。为了控制我们的不安全感,我们需要辨别它们,让自己能无所顾忌。为了达到这个目标,我们可以寻求别人的帮助。你可以从朋友或者家人那里得到你需要的帮助。
The best part about decision-making is that there is no right or wrong answer. Decisions are choices, and choices are individual. Try to put some more effort into your own decisions and leave the judgment at the door.
关于做决定,其最美好之处在于答案没有对错之分。做决定是种抉择,而且抉择是仁者见仁、智者见智。尽力做出自己的选择,不必介意你的选择是对或是错。
Perhaps your idea is a business venture, a travel adventure, or a career that you would like to pursue. When you get an idea that excites you, don’t push the idea away. Remember to follow your dream, because you have the power to make it come true.
或许你想去投资经商、旅游历险或是致力于你喜爱的事业。当你有了让自己激动的想法,那就坚持这个想法。记得坚持自己的梦想,因为你有能力让梦想成真。
Would you say your life is fun? Would you say you have more fun days than not? You would be surprised at so many people tell me that they do not think their life is fun and that most of their days are anything but fun. I find that a shame! Life is more fun than you think!
你会说自己的生活很有趣吗?你会说你度过的有趣日子比无趣的日子多吗?你会惊讶于许多人曾告诉我他们从不觉得自己的生活有趣甚至根本就无趣。这些人的话真令人感到遗憾。实际上,生活比你想像的要有趣得多。
What’s fun about it? That depends on you! What is it that would make your life more fun? I know the answer for me. I find all sorts of things fun, but if my mind is thinking negatively, then nothing seems fun.
生活怎么才有趣?决定权在你。什么会让你的生活更有趣?我知道什么能让我的生活更有趣。我发现各种各样有趣的事物,但如果我的思想很消极,那一切有趣的事物都会变得很无趣。
How’s your thinking? If your head is in the wrong place, you could have a million dollars cash but you wouldn’t be having fun. On the other side of the coin, you could be changing a flat tire and, if your mind is right, it might be the most fun thing you have ever done.
关于有趣的生活,你有何见解?如果心态不对,即使拥有一百万美金你也不可能尽情享乐。换个角度想想,如果心态是对的,即使是在换爆掉的轮胎,那都可能会是你干过的最有趣的事。
You decide what is fun. When I do something, I just tell myself that I am not going to complain about it and that I will enjoy it; and I do.
你可以决定什么事情有趣。当我做事时,我会告诉自己不去抱怨而是享受。我确实做到了。
If you believe, think and act like everything is a pain, then it will be. If you think, believe and act like life is happy, then that will become your reality as well.
如果你的信仰、思维和行为表现得好像任何事情都是痛苦的,那任何事情就都会是一种痛苦。反而言之,如果你的思维、信仰和行为表现得好像生活很幸福,那你的生活也就会很幸福。
Which do you choose?
你打算做何选择呢?
