2、ays! 我們內(nèi)心是否平和在很大程度上是由我們是否能生活在現(xiàn)實(shí)之中所決定的不管昨天或去年發(fā)生了什么，不管明天可能發(fā)生或不發(fā)生什么，現(xiàn)實(shí)才是你時(shí)時(shí)刻刻所在之處 2/without question, many of us have mastered the neurotic art of spending much of our lives worrying about variety of things-all at once. we allow past problems and future concerns dominate your present moments, so much s

4、l only repeat themselves so that someday never actually arrives. jhon lennone once said, life is what is happening while we are busy making other plans. when we are busy making other plans, our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away and dying, our bodies are getting out of

5、shape, and our dreams are slipping away. in short, we miss out on life. 毫無疑問，我們很多人掌握了一種神經(jīng)兮兮的藝術(shù)，即把生活中的大部分時(shí)間花在為種種事情擔(dān)心憂慮上而且常常是同時(shí)憂慮許多事情我們聽?wèi){過去的麻煩和未來的擔(dān)心控制我們此時(shí)此刻的生活，以至我們整日焦慮不安，委靡不振，甚至沮喪絕望而另一方面我們又推遲我們的滿足感，推遲我們應(yīng)優(yōu)先考慮的事情，推遲我們的幸福感，常常說服自己有朝一日會比今天更好不幸的是，如此告戒我們朝前看的大腦動力只能重復(fù)來重復(fù)去，以至有朝一日喲貧農(nóng)公元不會真的來臨約翰列儂曾經(jīng)說過：生活就是當(dāng)我們忙于制定

10、as while training them. fleas are trained by putting them in a cardboard box with a top on it. the fleas will jump up and hit the top of the cardboard box over and over and over again. as you watch them jump and hit the lid, something very interesting becomes obvious. the fleas continue to jump, but

11、 they are no longer jumping high enough to hit the top. when you take off the lid, the fleas continue to jump, but they will not jump out of the box. they wont jump out because they cant jump out. why? the reason is simple. they have conditioned themselves to jump just so high. once they have condit

12、ioned themselves to jump just so high, thats all they can do! many times, people do the same thing. they restrict themselves and never reach their potential. just like the fleas, they fail to jump higher, thinking they are doing all they can do. 跳蚤訓(xùn)練人在訓(xùn)練跳蚤時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)跳蚤有一個(gè)奇怪的習(xí)慣。若把跳蚤放在一個(gè)有頂蓋的盒子里，他們會不斷地跳起來，撞擊頂蓋

13、。 你觀察他們跳起來撞擊頂蓋，會慢慢發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)有趣的現(xiàn)象。他們?nèi)詴饋?，但不會再撞到頂蓋。 當(dāng)你把頂蓋拿開時(shí)，跳蚤還會接著跳，但卻不會跳出盒子。為什么呢？原因很簡單。它們已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了只跳那么高。 一旦它們習(xí)慣只跳這么高之后，它們就只能跳這么高了。 很多時(shí)候，人們也是一樣。他們自己限制了自己，從來不去發(fā)掘自己的潛力。就像跳蚤一樣，沒能跳得更高，還以為已經(jīng)到了自己能力的極限。 6熱愛生活 （love your life ） henry david thoreau/享利.大衛(wèi).梭羅 however mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun i

15、 alms-house as brightly as from the rich mans 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 towns poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.may be they are

16、 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

17、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. 不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時(shí)候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點(diǎn)的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點(diǎn)。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個(gè)濟(jì)貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時(shí)候。夕陽反射在濟(jì)貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪

18、同在早春融化。我只看到，一個(gè)從容的人，在哪里也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮(zhèn)中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨(dú)立不羈的生活。也許因?yàn)樗麄兒軅ゴ螅允苤疅o愧。大多數(shù)人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮(zhèn)來支援他們；可是事實(shí)上他們是往往利用了不正當(dāng)?shù)氖侄蝸韺Ω渡?，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像圣人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那里去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。7父愛和母愛 motherly and fatherly love motherly love by its very

19、nature is unconditional. mother loves the newborn infant because it is her child, not because the child has fulfilled any specific condition, or lived up to any specific expectation. unconditional love corresponds in one of the deepest longings, not only of the child, but of every human being; on th

20、e other hand, to be loved because of ones merit, because one deserves it, always leaves doubt: maybe i did not please the person whom i want to love me, maybe this or that-there is always a fear that love could disappear. furthermore, deserved love easily leaves a bitter feeling that one is not love

21、d for oneself, that one is loved only because one pleases, that one is, in the last analysis, not loved at all but used. no wonder that we all cling to the longing for motherly love, as children and also as adults. the relationship to father is quite different. mother is the home we come from, she i

22、s nature, soil, the ocean; father does not represent any such natural home. he has little connection with the child in the first years of his life, and his importance for the child in this early period cannot be compared with that of mother. but while father does not represent the natural world, he

23、represents the other pole of human existence; the world of thought, of man-made things, of law and order, of discipline, of travel and adventure. father is the one who teaches the child, who shows him the road into the world. fatherly love is conditional love. its principle is 1 love you because you

24、 fulfill my expectations, because you do your duty, because you are like me. in conditional fatherly love we find, as with unconditional motherly love, a negative and a positive aspect. the negative aspect is the very fact that fatherly love has to be deserved, that it can be lost if one does not do

25、 what is expected. the positive side is equally important. since his love is conditional, i can do something to acquire it, i can work for it; his love is not outside of my control as motherly love is. 母愛和父愛 母愛的天性是無條件的。母親愛她的新生嬰兒，因?yàn)槟鞘撬暮⒆樱皇且驗(yàn)檫@個(gè)小孩符合了什么特別的條件，也不是因?yàn)楹⒆舆_(dá)到了她的某種特別的期望。無條件的愛符合不只是小孩子，而且是每個(gè)人最深

26、切的渴望。另一方面，如果因?yàn)樽约旱膬?yōu)點(diǎn)，因?yàn)樽约褐档脨鄱粍e人愛，我們總會心存疑慮：可能我沒有使那個(gè)我希望他(她)愛我的人滿意吧?可能這個(gè)，可能那個(gè)總是害怕那份愛會消失。而且“值得的”愛很容易令人產(chǎn)生一種辛酸的感覺：似乎一個(gè)人不是因?yàn)樽陨矶粣?，而是因?yàn)樽约嚎梢粤顒e人高興，令別人滿足才被愛，似乎自己根本不是被愛而是被利用了。無怪乎我們?nèi)家缿?、渴望著母愛，不論小孩還是成年人都如此。 孩子同父親的關(guān)系就完全不同了。母親是我們的發(fā)源地，她是自然、是土壤、是海洋；父親不代表任何這些自然的歸宿。在孩子初生的前幾年中，父親和孩子接觸很少。在此期間，對于孩子來說，父親的重要性遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)比不上母親。但是，雖然父親

27、不代表這自然的世界，他卻代表了人類存在的另一極思想的世界、人造的世界、法律和秩序的世界、紀(jì)律的世界、旅行和冒險(xiǎn)的世界。教育孩子的人是父親，向孩子展示通向世界之路的人也是父親。父愛是有條件的。它的原則是：“因?yàn)槟氵_(dá)到了我的期望，因?yàn)槟阃瓿闪四愕穆氊?zé)，因?yàn)槟阆裎?，所以我愛你?！痹谟袟l件的父愛中，我們(像在無條件的母愛中一樣)發(fā)現(xiàn)它既有消極的一面，又有積極的一面。消極的一面是父愛的給予只在你值得得到愛的條件下，而且如果你沒有做到他所期望的事，你可能會失去這份愛。積極的一面也同樣重要。既然他的愛是有條件的，我可以采取一些辦法去獲取它，我可以為之而努力；他的愛像母愛一樣，并沒有越出我的控制力8russe

28、ll on affection (羅素論愛) the best type of affection is reciprocally life-giving; each receives affection with joy and gives it without effort, and each finds the whole world more interesting in consequence of the existence of this reciprocal happiness. there is, however, another kind, by no means unco

29、mmon, in which one person sucks the vitality of the other, one receives what the other gives, but gives almost nothing in return. some very vital people belong to this bloodsucking type. they extract the vitality from one victim after another, but while they prosper and grow interesting, those upon

30、whom they live grow pale and dim and dull. such people use others as means to their own ends, and never consider them as ends in themselves. fundamentally they are not interested in those whom for the moment they think they love; they are interested only in the stimulus to their owe activities, perh

31、aps of a quite impersonal sort. evidently this springs from some defect in their nature, but it is one not altogether easy either to diagnose of to cure. it is a characteristic frequently associated with great ambition, and is rooted, i should say, in an unduly one-sided view of what makes human hap

32、piness. affection in the sense of a genuine reciprocal interest of two persons in each other, not solely as means to each others good, but rather as a combination having a common good, is one of the most important elements of real happiness, and the man whose ego is so enclosed within steel walls th

33、at this enlargement of it is impossible misses the best that life has to offer, however successful he may be in his career. a too powerful ego is a prison from which a man must escape if he is to enjoy the world to the full. a capacity for genuine affection is one of the marks of the man who has esc

34、aped form this prison of self. to receive affection is by no means enough; affection which is received should liberate the affection which is to be given, and only where both exist in equal measure does affection achieve its best possibilities. 最好的那種愛是彼此愉悅的愛；彼此很愉快地接受，很自然地給出，并且由于有了這種互惠的快樂，彼此都覺得整個(gè)世界更有

35、趣味。然而，還有一種決非少見的愛，那就是一方吸收著另一方的活力，接受著另一方的給出，但他這一方幾乎毫無回報(bào)。某些生命力極旺的人便屬于這吸血的一類。他們把一個(gè)又一個(gè)犧牲者的活力吸凈，但是當(dāng)他們越發(fā)生機(jī)勃勃，興致盎然之時(shí)，那些被榨取的人卻變得越來越蒼白、黯淡和遲鈍。這種人總是把他人當(dāng)作工具來實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo)，卻從不考慮他人也有他自己的目標(biāo)。他們一時(shí)以為他們愛著那些人，其實(shí)那些人根本引不起他們的興趣；他們感興趣的不過是為自己的活動添些刺激，而他們的活動也許當(dāng)屬全無人格的那種。這種情形顯然源于他們本性上的某種缺陷，但是這種缺陷既不容易診斷也不容易治療。它往往與極大的野心有關(guān)，同時(shí)也是由于他們總是不恰當(dāng)?shù)?/p>

36、從單方面去看待人生幸福的緣故。兩人真正相互關(guān)心意義的愛，不僅是促進(jìn)彼此幸福的手段，而且是促進(jìn)共同幸福的手段，是真正快樂的最重要因素之一。凡是把自我禁錮起來不能擴(kuò)展的人，必然錯(cuò)失人生所能提供的最好的東西，不管他在事業(yè)上如何成功。太強(qiáng)的自我是一座監(jiān)獄，你若想充分地享受人生，就得從這座監(jiān)獄中逃脫。能有真正的愛，這是一個(gè)人已逃出自我監(jiān)獄的標(biāo)志之一。光接受愛是絕對不夠的；接受的愛應(yīng)當(dāng)能激發(fā)你奉獻(xiàn)出自己的愛，惟有當(dāng)接受的愛和奉獻(xiàn)出的愛等量存在時(shí)，愛才能達(dá)到它的最佳狀態(tài)。9blood, toil, sweat and tears熱血、辛勞、眼淚和汗水in this crisis i think i may

37、be pardoned if i do not address the house at any length today, and i hope that any of my friends and colleagues or former colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony with which it has been necessary to act.在這生死存亡之際，如果我今天沒有向下院作長篇演講，我希望

40、and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime.我們的政策就是用我們?nèi)磕芰?，用上帝所給予我們的全部力量，同一個(gè)在人類黑暗悲慘的罪惡史上所從未有過的窮兇極惡的暴政進(jìn)行戰(zhàn)爭。that is our policy.這就是我們的政策。you ask, what is our aim?你們問：我們的目標(biāo)是什么?i can answer in one word.我可以用一個(gè)詞來回答：it is victory.那就是勝利。vict

45、e in the world.第二是在全世界任何地方，人人有以自己的方式來崇拜上帝的自由。the third is freedom from want, which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants - everywhere in the world.第三是不虞匱乏的自由這種自由，就世界范圍來講，就是一種經(jīng)濟(jì)上的融洽關(guān)系，它將保證全世界每一個(gè)國家的居民都

46、過健全的、和平時(shí)期的生活。the fourth is freedom from fear, which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor - anywhere in the world.第四是免除恐懼

47、的自由這種自由，就世界范圍來講，就是世界性的裁減軍備，要以一種徹底的方法把它裁減到這樣的程度：務(wù)使世界上沒有一個(gè)國家有能力向全世界任何地區(qū)的任何鄰國進(jìn)行武力侵略。that is no vision of a distant millennium. it is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation. that kind of world is the very antithesis of the so-called “new order” of tyranny which th

48、e dictators seek to create with the crash of a bomb.這絕不是對遙遠(yuǎn)未來的幻想。在我們這個(gè)時(shí)代，我們這代人就可以在這一實(shí)實(shí)在在的基礎(chǔ)之上，建立起一個(gè)新的世界。這個(gè)世界是與獨(dú)裁者們想用炸彈炸出來的所謂暴政新秩序截然相反的。since the beginning of our american history we have been engaged in change, in a perpetual, peaceful revolution, a revolution which goes on steadily, quietly, adjust

49、ing itself to changing conditions without the concentration camp or the quicklime in the ditch. the world order which we seek is the cooperation of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society.自美國有史以來，我們一直致力于變革。這是一種從未間斷的和平革命，一種扎實(shí)漸進(jìn)的革命，悄然地進(jìn)行調(diào)整，以適應(yīng)變化多端的形勢，沒有集中營，也沒有萬人坑。我們所追求的世界新秩序是

50、自由國家之間的合作，是自由國家在一個(gè)友好、文明的世界里同心協(xié)力，共同努力。this nation has placed its destiny in the hands and heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women, and its faith in freedom under the guidance of god. freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. our support goes to those who struggle to gain

51、those rights and keep them. our strength is our unity of purpose.我們的國家已經(jīng)將它的命運(yùn)交到她千百萬自由男女的手里、腦里和心里。她已將她對于自由的信仰交由上帝指引。自由意味著在任何地方，人權(quán)高于一切。我們支持一切為爭取、捍衛(wèi)這種權(quán)力而斗爭的人們。我們的力量就在于我們目標(biāo)一致。to that high concept there can be no end save victory.為了實(shí)現(xiàn)這一崇高的信念，我們不獲全勝，絕不罷休。10、hard work is good for health努力工作有利健康scientists f
