二、10句不得不学的英语

本不是常用语，不过看过“幽灵”一片的人都染上了男主角的坏习惯。

你可以利用这段时间好好想想对方的名字！

1、A man is not old as long as he is seeking something. A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams (J. Barrymore)
只要一个人还有追求，他就没有老。直到后悔取代了梦想，一个人才算老。(巴里摩 尔 )

as long as是经常用的连接词，有两个意思。第一种表示既然、由于，同since接近,比如As long as you've offered this sports car, I'll accept it.既然你要给我这辆跑车，我就接受了。第二种意思表示只要，引导条件状语从句，这种意思较第一种常见，也就是格言中的用法。
例如，I'll let her go as long as you give me ten thousand pounds.只要你给我一万英镑，我就放了她。这时，往往可以用provided that替换。I'll let her go provided that you give me ten thousand pounds.但显然，provided that要正式些。
这句话中还有一个词组：take the place of，它的意思是代替，这里的the一定不能省略。例如：The computer is taking the place of TV in our lives.再例如: The word "replace" could take the place of "take the place of" in the above example.是不是有点糊涂了？在上面的例句中，take the place of也可以用replace代替。

2、A good education gives a man a great pull.
良好的教育对人是至关重要的。(良好的教育给人很大的好处。)

这句话中的pull有着其特殊的用法。Pull通常情况下都做动词，有拖、拉、牵的意思；但是这里的pull是名词用法，它的意思是influence, informal special influence that gives you some advantage(有利条件，影响力)。
这句话说明了一个人的成才除了会受到先天的影响，后天的良好教育也是必不可少的。
让我们来看下面一个句子：
The name of his family gives him a lot of pull in this town.
在这个小镇上，他的姓氏给他带来了不少好处。

3、Take no thought for tomorrow. 莫为明日愁。
这句话出自《圣经》，意谓着未来的事情都由上帝来安排，不必为明天而烦恼。

4、The course of true love never did run smooth. 好事多磨。
这句话出自莎士比亚的作品《仲夏夜之梦》(A Midsummer Night Dream)。直译为真正的爱情往往要经历许多挫折。
Course,在这里并不是课程的意思，而是过程，进程，历程的意思。Smooth-free from problems or difficulties，没有问题的，无困难的，顺利的。
只在经过艰苦磨难的爱情，才是真正的爱情，也才会让我们更加懂得如何珍惜。

5、Birds of a feather flock together. 物以类聚，人以群分。
A feather,这里是指具有相同的羽毛。Flock,鸟群，词组a flock of可以解释为一群人，一伙人。
比较通俗地来说就是，相同羽毛的鸟类聚集在一起。大家可千万别以为是志同道合，这句话其实通常都用作贬意，有“一丘之貉”之意。所以今后我们在用这个谚语的时候要特别注意。

6、Quality is better than quantity. 质胜于量。
Quality--the degree to which something is excellent; stand of goodness质，质量；Quantity--the fact of being measurable; amount量，数量。
我想大家知道哲学里有这样一句话，只有量的积累，才会有质的飞跃。说明量的积累也是同样很重要的，但是在量的积累的同时，千万别忽视了质量上的要求。

7、A hedge between keeps friendship green. 保持距离，友谊常青。
Hedge,在这里做名词，解释为树篱，障碍物，也就是用于隔离的东西。在这里教大家另外一个词组，我们平时说的"脚踏两条船"用英语该如何表达呢？那就是Hedge one's bet，这里的hedge做动词用，意思是在两面下注以防损失。引申一下也就是"脚踏两条船"。
这句话其实就是“君子之交淡如水”这样一层意思。
相似的表达句子：Good fences make good neighbors.

8、The only way to differentiate yourself from the competition is through service.
只有服务才能真正使你在竞争中凸显。
differentiate使分辨、辨别的意思，常同from和between搭配。例如：I can't differentiate between rose and Chinese rose.我分不清玫瑰和月季。这句话也可以说成I can't differentiate rose from Chinese rose.
但这句名言中differentiate from的意思与这个例句的意思不同，它的意思是"使有差别、有特点从而区别于其他"。那么这句话就是说在激烈的竞争下，只有优质、有特色的服务才能使企业在众多的竞争对手中显示出自己的不同，在竞争中占有一席之地。
参加面试的时候，不妨问问自己“What differentiates me from other candidates for the position?"

9、Better an open enemy than a false friend.公开的敌人胜于虚假的朋友。
这句话其中也隐含了另一种意思，那就是我们中国人常说的“明枪易躲，暗箭难防”。
Open-actions, feelings, or intentions that are not hidden or secret;公开的，在这里做形容词。需注意的是，当open用做形容词时只能位于名词前面，比如说：an open secret一个公开的秘密；
False-untrue，假的，虚伪的，不真实的；
Better...than，是一个比较句式，意思是比...好。

10、Pleasant hours fly fast.美好时光最易逝。
Pleasant：愉快的，美好的；fly：飞逝，这里形容时间过得很快，象这样的用法还有：Time flies. (时光飞逝)。
这句谚语告诉我们这样一个道理，快乐的时光在不经意间就会流逝，我们应该好好珍惜每一刻的美好瞬间。

11、Joys shared with others are more enjoyed.与人同乐，其乐无穷。
Share with:与......共享；分担。
For example:
I'd like to share the pie with you.我愿与你分享这块馅饼。
在平时的生活中我们经常会听到这样的问题：Can you tell me what is a true joy?
每当我们听到这样的问题总是会语塞，不知该如何回答。
Now we can give "true joy" a definition: Joys shared with others are more enjoyed.

12、Wonders will never cease. 奇迹的出现是不会终止的。
Wonder, something that makes you feel surprise and admiration；奇迹；奇观；奇事。创造奇迹我们可以说：do wonders or make wonders; for a wonder就是说来奇怪，意想不到的意思。
Cease, to stop doing something；停止；终止。
The rain has ceased.雨停了。
Without cease，就是不停地，不断地。
不知大家是否留意过英文新闻里经常出现这样一个词：cease-fire, an agreement to stop fighting for a period of time, especially so that a more permanent agreement can be made.其实就是停火的意思。
This proverb tells us that we should never give up our hope, because wonders will never cease.

13、Hitch your wagon to star. 把你的大车套在星星上。/人要志向远大。
这句话意味着人要有远大理想，要立志超脱一切世俗事物。
Hitch, to fasten something,在这里解释为被钩住；被栓住；被套住。Hitch...to...就是把...系上，栓上。这个词还有多种解释：
(1)a problem that delays something for a short time.故障；障碍。比如说：讨论顺利地结束了。我们可以这样表达：The discussion passed off without a hitch.
(2)informal to ask for a free ride from the drivers of passing cars by putting your hat out with your thumb raised.求得免费搭车。免费搭车者我们就说：hitchhiker.
Wagon, a strong vehicle with four wheels, used for carrying heavy loads and usually pulled by horse; a large open container pulled by a train, used for carrying goods. (in BrE),是指四轮马车；在英式英语中指(铁路)货车。
大家在使用这个谚语的时候需要特别注意一下，虽然这句话含有人要志向远大的意思，但是也有可能是贬义，即：好高骛远。

14、I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year's fashions. ----- Hellman
我不能、也不愿毁灭我的良心去迎合时尚。----赫尔曼
conscience means the awareness of a moral or ethical aspect to one''s conduct together with the urge to prefer right over wrong,良心就是对鞭策人行善而非作恶的本能行为在伦理或道德上的意识。例如：Let your conscience be your guide.让你的良心指引你。His conscience troubled him after he took the money.他拿了钱以后，他的良心使他不安。我们常说的凭良心就是according to one''s conscience,问心无愧是have a clear [good] conscience.
关于这个词，有如下习惯用语：
A good conscience is a constant feast. (=A good conscience is a soft pillow.)
问心无愧，高枕无忧。
A guilty conscience is a self-accuser. (=A guilty conscience needs no accuser.)
做贼心虚。
A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder. 没做亏心事，不怕鬼叫门。
get sth. off one''s conscience 解除良心上的负担
have the conscience (to do; to say sth.) 竟厚颜无耻到(做、说...)
in all conscience 凭良心说，真的，的确，一定
make sth. a matter of conscience 凭良心对待〔做〕某事
另外在口语中，我们可以说My conscience！这表示啊呀！嗳！好家伙！(表示惊奇，遗憾等)的意思。
这句格言，其实说的就是一种坚韧不屈的性格。

15、Dying is as natural as living.生死是自然法则。/生死有命，富贵在天。
Dying,在这里指死亡。Be dying for/to, to have a real wish for/to (informal),(非正式)恨不得马上；巴不得立刻；非常想：I'm dying for a cigarette.我恨不得马上有支烟抽。
As natural as,和...一样普通，一样正常。As...as表示和...一样，中间必须是形容词的原形。比如：as big as和...一样大; as fast as和...一样快。
Living,活着；有生命的。这个词还可以解释为现存的；现行的；在使用着的。A living language活语言。
这句谚语告诉我们生与死都是自然规律的一部分。死亡是不可避免的，也是不可怕的。

16、The great end of life is not knowledge but action. ----- Huxley
人生的伟大目的不在于知而在于行。-----赫胥黎
knowledge:
1. understanding了解，理解例如：A baby has no knowledge of good and evil.小孩儿不解善恶。
2. all that a person knows familiarity gained by experience个人的知识，见闻例如：I have only a limited knowledge of computers.我的计算机知识是很有限的。
3. everything that is known, organized body of information学问，学识，知识例如：all branches of knowledge各门学问
knowledge常用的搭配如下：
be common/public knowledge人所共知
It's pointless trying to keep your friendship secret----it's common knowledge already.你们无所谓将友情保留---其实已尽人皆知了。
Come to somebody's knowledge被某人熟悉
It has come to our knowledge that you have been cheating the company.我们了解你一直欺骗公司。
这句格言，实际是告诉我们做事要实干，仅仅纸上谈兵是不够的。

17、A man without distant care must have near sorrow. 人无远虑必有近忧。
Distant-the amount of space between two places or things，远的，悠远的。举例：A distant relative远房亲戚；distant control遥控；long distance长途电话。
Care，通常是照顾；管理；或是小心的意思。比如：Give more care to your spelling.多注意你的拼写。在这里care是指忧虑；烦恼；挂念。我们来看一些例子：be free from all care无忧无虑/Care had aged him.忧虑使他显得苍老了。
Sorrow-a feeling of great sadness, usually because someone has died or because something terrible has happened to you，悲伤，悲哀。Convert sorrows into strength 化悲痛为力量。
社会竞争日益激烈，人们的压力也越来越大，既有远虑又有近忧的人已不在少数了。还是衷心希望所有的人都能放松心态，舒适地生活。

18、Self-distrust is the cause of most of our failures.
我们绝大多数的失败都是因为缺乏自信的缘故。
Distrust - a feeling that you cannot trust someone，不信任，怀疑。Have a distrust of somebody / something，对某人(某事)怀疑。Self-distrust，就是缺乏自信的意思。与之想反的是，self-confidence 充满自信。由self-结构组成的词组还有很多，比如：self-dramatizing 自吹自擂的；self-educated 自学的；self-financing 自筹经费；self-glorifying 自命不凡的；等等。
Cause，原因。the cause of，是导致...的原因。
Failure，是动词fail的名词形式，解释为失败。Failure is the mother of success.失败是成功之母。也可以解释为失败的人；失败的尝试：He is a failure as an artist.他是个失败的艺术家。Fail表示失败或不能；忘记。Don't fail to ring me up.不要忘记给我打电话。
这个谚语就告诉我们在做任何一件事情的时候我们都要充满自信。

19、Some people pretend to despise the things they cannot have. ---- Aesop
吃不到葡萄的人说葡萄酸。----伊索
pretend means make pretensions,表示假装，矫作的意思。
这里，我们来看一下下列几个词：pretend、feign、assume、affect ,都含"假装"的意思。
pretend指"感觉到某事,而在言行上装出是真的",如: pretend not to hear 假装没听见。
feign指"精心装有或装作",如:feign deafness 装聋。
assume指"装出有某种感情的样子,以掩饰其真正的感情",如:
She assumed a look of sorrow. 她假装着悲伤的样子。
affect指"为达到某种效果而假装有某种特征或情感",如:affect a British accent装英国腔。

20、The secret of success is constancy of purpose. 成功之秘诀乃为目标之有恒。
Secret - something kept hidden or known about by only a few people，秘密；机密。The secret of health 养身秘诀；make no secret of something 对某事毫不掩饰。
Constancy - the quality of staying the same even though other things change，坚定；坚贞；经久不变。Constancy of purpose目标坚定。
Purpose-the thing that an event, process, or activity is supposed to achieve, or the job that something is supposed to do，意图；目的。What is his purpose in coming?他来的意图是什么？
这个谚语告诉我们确立目标，持之以恒就能成功地将事情完成。

21、Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.
知识是宝库，而实践是开启这一宝库的钥匙。
这句话也就是我们平常一直在说的：理论知识的掌握必须建立在实践的基础之上。如果没有实践经验，掌握的知识是比较抽象的。Treasure,财富，珍宝的意思。这个词还有另外一种形式treasury，可以解释为国库，金库，也有宝库的意思。那么我们平时一直在说的国库券的英语应该怎么表达呢？短期国库券：treasury bill;中期国库券：treasury note。既然解释为宝库，那么就说明里面的东西都是非常经典的，非常珍贵的，也就可以让我们想到另外一个词集锦的表达方式，也是这个treasury。比如说中国诗歌集锦就是a treasury of Chinese poetry。

22、A Jack of all trades is master of none.
样样皆通，样样稀松。/通百艺即无一长。
这里的Jack不是我们平时所指的人名，在这里是泛指无特长技术的人。我想大家都听到过这样一句话：All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.同样这里的Jack也是泛指。
Trade在这里的意思是-a particular job, especially one needing special skill with your hands.手艺。
这句话的意思其实很简单，就是我们现在比较流行的一个词“三脚猫”啦。看来光会做“三脚猫”还是远远不够的，一定要有自己的某些特长。
A good education gives a man a great pull.
"木受绳则直，金就砺则利，君子博学而日参省乎己，则知明而行无过矣。"
荀子《劝学篇》
意思有些相近，荀子的更形象易懂。

23、Man can climb to the highest summit, but he cannot dwell there long. (Bernard Shaw)
人可以爬到最高峰但却不能在那儿久住。(萧伯纳)
这句格言中有两个词值得学习，一个是summit，另一个是dwell. Summit最基本的意思是顶点、顶端，如：a mountain summit还有能达到的最高水平、程度这样的意思，如：summit of career development, summit of ambition, summit of advancement, etc.另外，summit还表示最高级别、最高级别的，首脑会议、政府首脑的，可以做名词，也可以做形容词。频频出现的"高峰会议"这个说法就是从summit来的，可以说summit meeting, summit talk,或直接就是CEO summit。
dwell表示在某地居住，隐含长久居住的意义，是比较正式的用法，并且有dweller居民，dwelling住处，等对应的说法。经常会碰到关于这个词的短语dwell on或者dwell upon。两者几乎没什么差别，意思是细说、详论。例句如：She's dwelling too much on her past.她对自己的过去说得太详细了。

24、The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. 心有余而力不足。
Spirit, the part of a person's mind that is able to think and will be talked about as clearly opposed to the body. (与肉体相对而言的)心灵，精神。
Flesh, the physical human body as opposed to the mind or soul. (人的)肉体。
这名话源出《圣经》，有力不从心的意思。

25、He loses all who loses the moment. 机不可失，时不再来。
Moment在这里不能解释为片刻，它所指的是the time for doing something，时机。
也就是说错过了一次机会，也就是错过了一切。告诉我们在日常生活中每时每刻都要做好准备，当机会来临时就要抓住它，只有这样人生才不会有太多的后悔。
在口语中更常见的说法是：Now or never.

26、Distance lends enchantment to the view.距离使风景更富魅力。/远看风景更美。
Lend...to...,在这里并不是把...借给...的意思，而应该解释为to be suitable for being used in a particular way，有助于；适宜于；对......有用。
Enchantment-a feeling of mystery that strongly interests or attracts you.魅力；迷人之处；乐事。
View,在这里是风景的意思。英语中表示风景的词还有很多，比如说scenery; landscape, etc.
这句谚语出自苏格兰诗人托马斯?坎贝尔的《希望的快乐》(The Pleasure of Hope)。揭示这样一个道理：距离产生美；其实人与人相处时应该保持一定的距离，亲密无间不一定是促进友谊的最好途径。
这句可以和第七句参考着学习：7.A hedge between keeps friendship green.

27、Take the rough with the smooth. 逆来顺受。
rough：在这里做名词，译作艰难；(生活的)苦难方面；smooth：同样也做名词，有顺意，平平安安的意思。有这样一个词组：the roughs and the smooths，就是艰难与顺利；苦与乐；人世的甘苦等意思。
人生不如意事十之八九，当我们遇到这样的事情时应该以乐观的心态去面对，这样才会活得快乐。

28、Actions speak louder than words.行动胜于空谈。/事实胜于雄辩。
这句话选自美国诗人亨利?沃兹沃思?朗费罗(Henry Wordsworth Longfellow)的长诗《海华沙之歌》(The song of Hiawatha)。
Speak在这里并不是说话，讲话的意思，它的意思是-to express thoughts, ideas, etc., in some other way than by talking. (用说话以外的方式)表达思想、观点等。
理想不可能在空谈中变成现实，只有实际行动才能实现自己美好的愿望。

29、A wreck on shore is a beacon at sea.前车之覆，后车之鉴。
Wreck, a ship lost at sea or (partly) destroyed on rocks.
失事的船，触礁的船，(失事船只的)残骸。
Shore，(海，湖等大水域的)岸，滨
Beacon, a tall object or a light on or near the shore, acting as a guide or warning to sailors (海岸高处的)指示灯，灯标，灯塔。
直译这句话就是，海岸上一只失事的船只就象海上的一个灯塔，告诉人们要提高警惕。用中国人的一句古话来说就是前车之覆，后车之鉴。

30、Great minds think alike.英雄所见略同。
Mind:在这里表示头脑；精神。
Alike:相同的，相像的。
在这里我们来看看alike和like的区别：
Alike: not before noun; means very similar.
Like: only before a noun; means similar in some way.
For example:
The two brothers are very much alike.两兄弟长得非常像。
Stand by each other because they are of like mind.因为他们有相同的想法，所以站在了一起。
这句谚语从字面意思上理解就是：伟大的头脑想法相近；换句话来说就是英雄所见略同。

31、Man proposes, God disposes.谋事在人，成事在天。
Propose-[formal] to intend to do something,作出计划；打算。
For example:
How do you propose to explain your long absence?你打算如何解释你长期的缺席？
Dispose: [formal] to arrange things or put them in their places,安排；处置。
For example:
His job is disposing soldiers for the battle.他的工作就是为这次战役部署军队。
Dispose of:清除，销毁
日常生活中我们经常听到“一切都是天注定”这样极其消极的话。这句谚语告诉我们凡事都要通过自己的努力才会成功。让我们时刻记住：God helps those who help themselves.

32、Never be unduly elated by victory or depressed by defeat. ----- Porter
胜不骄，败不馁。----波特
depressed: low in spirits; dejected.情绪低落的；沮丧的。例如：A dispirited and resigned expression on her face.她脸上的表情气馁和消沉。He was depressed by the loss of his job.他由于失去了工作而情绪低落。
当然，depressed也可以指低下的意思。我们形容一个人的水平不到家，比别人低，可以说：achievement is depressed。例如：His reading achievement is depressed.他的阅读能力低于一般水平。另外，我们常常听见这个单词----贫困地区，它就是depressed areas。
当我们表示喜悦胜利的心情时，会用手指打出一个胜利的V字。这就是victory。我们这里要了解一下victory、conquest、triumph的区别。他们都含"取胜"、"胜利"的意思。victory指"在战争、竞赛、斗争中获胜"，并有"击败对方或敌人"的含义，例如:They won a victory in battle.他们在战斗中获胜。conquest指"征服某国或某民族,从而使之处于被支配地位的胜利或战胜"，例如:They succeeded in the conquest of that city.他们夺取了那城市。triumph指"辉煌或彻底的胜利或成功",例如:return home in triumph凯旋归来。
生活中没有一帆风顺的事情，但切记，不要向挫折低头。

33、Don't paint the lily.不要画蛇添足。
这句谚语从字面意思上理解就是“不要给百合花上颜色。”
lily-one of several types of plant with large bell-shaped flowers of various colors, especially white. It's often regarded as a symbol of virtue.百合；百合花。品德的象征。
百合是一种非常美丽的花，无需再加以作何修饰，如果再给百合上颜色的话，不就是画蛇添足了吗？
莎士比亚的一段话，不仅生动地解释了“画蛇添足”，而且还给我们提供了许多类似的说法："To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, to throw a perfume on the violet, to smooth the ice, or add another hue unto the rainbow . . . is wasteful and ridiculous excess." 为纯金镀金，为百合着色，为紫罗兰填香，为冰面整饰，抑或是为彩虹增彩，皆属画蛇添足之可笑举动。
In fact, before Shakespeare, it used to gild the rose, or paint the golden rose on church architecture. But rose was later found to have the wrong type of symbolism and was then replaced by the more virtuous lily on the church decoration. And in the 1920s, there was this phrase "gild the lily", but the more common saying is: don't paint the lily.

34、a drop in the bucket
Definition: a very small amount in comparison to the whole
“水桶中的一滴水”这个惯用语很容易让人想起汉语中“沧海一粟”，实际上，“a drop in the bucket"多用于美语，也可说成"a drop in the ocean"，表示同整体比起来，只占很小的一部分或者是和较大、较多、较重要的事物比，并不算什么。
例句：A hundred thousand may seem a lot but it's a d

GRACE  RHYS—Novelist and essayist：Mary Dominic (1898),  The Wooing of Sheila (1901),  The Bride (1909),  Five Beads on a String (essays) (1908), etc.

    爱的五大意像
   
    格雷斯•里斯

    格雷斯•里斯，小说家和随笔作家。著有《玛丽•多明尼克》 (1898) ，《希拉的追求》(1901)，《新娘》(1909)和《一根线上的五颗珠子》（随笔）(1908)等。

No one understands the nature of love; it is like a bird of heaven that sings a strange language. It
lights down among us, coming from whence we know not, going we know not how or when, striking out wild notes of music that make even fatigued and heavy hearts to throb and give back a tone of courage.

    没有人知道爱的本质是什么，它就象天堂里的鸟，吟唱着陌生的语言。它用光辉普照我们，它来无影、去无踪，它敲击出狂野的音乐，弹拨于疲惫、沉重的心灵，呼唤出勇敢的乐音。

The sorts and kinds of love are infinite in number, infinite as the days of the years of time. Each
one of us is capable of many and various loves. We cannot love two creatures, not two dogs, with the
same love. To each of those whom we love we offer a gem of different colour and value;—to the unknown Master of the heavens, ah! who shall tell of what sort is the love we offer to Him? Yet in this love, too (which is natural worship), we discover the same vibrational atmosphere that invades the soul of all lovers.

    爱之多样，如一年之中的日日天天。我们每个人都具有各种不同的爱之能力，我们不会以同一种方式去爱恋两个人、两条狗。对每一位我们钟爱的人，我们奉献的是色彩不同、价值各异的宝石。对天国神秘的主，谁能说清我们奉献的是什么样的一种爱？然而，在这爱恋（这自然崇拜）之中，我们发现，侵入所有爱者心灵的，是相同的震颤。

I doubt we shall not get much nearer to the nature of love by mere talking. Intellectual statements
are of little use. God does not make intellectual statements, He creates. We have to find our way
about in the vast medley of created things that life spreads out around us, and pick up what bits of
knowledge we can as we make our way along.

    我不信我们的讨论探讨不出爱之真谛。理性陈述常苍白无力，上帝不作理性陈述，上帝创造！我们要在生活展现给我们的无数繁杂的创造物之中，找到自己的方式，并在前行的过程中收集一点一滴的知识。

Let me choose five images that will give an idea of what the awaking of this new life means.

    我选择5个意象来描画这一新生活之复苏意味着什么。



I. Shall we not say that the creature without love is like the lamp unlit? There it is, and no one
needs it. But touch it with flame, and it trembles and glows and becomes the centre of the room where
it stands. Everything that falls under its rays is new-gilt. So does the lover see all natural things
quite new.

    首先，我以为，无爱的生灵，就如置放在一旁尚未点燃的灯，没有人需要它。一经火焰点燃，它摇曳，它闪光，它成了屋里的中心。在它的照耀下，一切都似乎重新镀了一层金。正因为此，在拥有爱的人眼的里，世界全是新的。

II. Or take the image of the withering plant that is dying of drought. The sun’s rays have parched
it; the roots have searched and searched for moisture in a soil that grows every day harder and drier.
The plant wilts and hangs its head; it is fainting and ready to die, when down comes the rain in a
murmuring multitude of round scented drops. the purest thing alive, a distilled essence, necessary to
life. Under that baptism the plant lifts itself up; it drinks and rejoices. In the night it renews its
strength; in the morning the heat it has had from the sun, reinforced by the rain, bursts out into
coloured flowers. So I have known a man battered by hard life and the excess of his own passions: I
have seen love come to such a man and take him up and cleanse him and set him on his feet; and from him has burst forth a flood of colour and splendour—creative work that now lends its fiery stimulus to thousands.

    其次，无爱的生灵就如即将死于干旱的枯萎的植物。太阳的光烧烤着它，植物的根在日益坚硬、干枯的土壤里寻觅养分。植物枯萎了，耷拉下脑袋。就在它晕眩之际、快要死去之时，突然普降喜雨，那是生命的甘霖。雨露滋润之下，植物昂起了头，它畅饮，它欢欣。夜晚，它恢复了体力。白天，它享受雨后强劲的阳光，绽放出五彩之花。我认识一位被艰难的生活和自己过度情感打磨的男人，我看到爱普降于他，扶持他，净化他，并支撑着他站立起来，使之迸发出壮丽与光彩----现在成了激励无数人的创新杰作。

III. Another image might be of the harp that stands by itself in golden aloofness. Then come the
beautiful arms, the curving fingers that pluck at the strings, and the air is filled with melody; the
harp begins to live, thrilling and rejoicing. down to its golden foot.

    第三，无爱的生灵就象一尊超然独*立的竖琴，拨动琴弦的美丽手臂和纤纤玉指，让空气中弥漫起悦耳的旋律。竖琴顿时活了,开始振奋和欢欣，其情绪一直感染至琴基。

IV. Or picture the unlighted house, empty at fall of night. The windows are dark; the door shut; the
clean wind goes about and about it, and cannot find an entrance. The dull heavy air is faint within;
it longs to be reunited to the wind of the world outside. Then comes the woman with the key, and in
she steps; the windows are opened, the imprisoned air rushes out, the wind enters; the lamps and the fire are lit; so that light fills windows and doors. The tables are set, there is the sound of
footsteps; and more footsteps. The house glows and lives.

    第四，无爱的生灵就象秋天的夜晚中一栋没有光亮的屋子,窗口黑暗，门窗紧闭，清新的风儿绕着它无法吹进。屋内沉闷的空气让人昏厥，渴望与外面清新的风儿汇集。这时，一位手持钥匙的佳人翩然而至,步入室内，推开窗,清风穿进；点亮灯，点燃炉，灯火照亮门窗。餐桌摆放停当,脚步声接踵而来，屋子开始弥漫起活力与生机。

One could please oneself by many more images; such as the white garment of feathers that the young
swans put on in the spring: the young flowers opening out their cups to the Sun that fills them with
his golden wine. All life is full of such images, because nature has ruled that love, energy, beauty,
and joy are one.

    我们还可以想象出更多自己喜欢的意象，比如春天里小天鹅生长起的洁白羽毛；向着给自己注入金色琼浆的太阳开放的花蕾。所有的生命都充满了这样的意象，因为大自然裁定，爱、活力、美和愉悦浑然合一。

V. A last image only I would like to add because of the pleasure it has given me. On the north door of
the Cathedral of Chartres there is a sculptured design, some six hundred years old, of God creating
the birds. God is charming, quite young, not more than thirty-eight or so; He has a most sweet
expression. Behind Him a little stands the Son, about seventeen, tall as He and very like Him, but
beardless. He has the same sweetness of look, as though upon each countenance an ineffable smile were just dawning. The Father is holding something that time has broken in His hand; most likely it is a bird. What a fortunate moment! What a fortunate thought! No wonder they both look pleased. Never have the birds disappointed Him as have we, His ruder children. Every spring since then these small
creatures praise Him, head turned skywards, for the joy of the beloved, for the secret nest.

    我要补充的最后一个意象，是因为它曾经给我带来愉悦。沙特尔大教堂北门上的一个雕刻设计，有六百年之久,上面雕的是上帝造鸟。上帝很迷人，很年轻, 大概三十八岁左右，他表情甜美，身后站着天子，大约十七岁,和他一般高，跟他很相象,但没有胡子。他的脸上泛着同样甜美的神情，好像所有的表情中都呈现出一种不可言喻的微笑。天父正握着时间开辟于他手中的东西，很可能是一只鸟。多么幸运的时刻!多么吉利的主意!难怪他们看上去都很高兴。鸟儿从未像我们，他粗鲁的孩子一样，让他失望。从那以后，每到春天，这些小生灵便仰望长空，为心爱人儿的愉悦、为隐秘的鸟巢而赞美他。

Imagining and pondering, one is apt to grow a little wise; now perhaps we may say that love is a
radiant atmosphere of the soul, a celestial energy, a fluid force.

     想像与沉思,它能让我们变得更为明智。现在我们也许会说，爱是灵魂璀璨的氛围，是精妙的活力，是流动的力量。

This force, this energy is set running in the wide kingdom that is within us by some Spirit touch. A
soft tumult takes place in the life within; waves on waves of joy, desire, grief, ecstasy begin to
run, making a trembling music that often causes the whole body to shake and tremble too.

    这力量,这活力被某种精神触觉所导引，在我们宽广的身体王国中奔跑。生活中，温软的骚动被拨动，愉悦、欲望、悲伤和狂喜开始交替涌起,奏起让全身心震颤的乐音。

I am in love with love; I do adore it;—from the smile on that rough fellow’s face as he talks to his
dog, to the ardours of a St. Francis or a Joan of Arc. That bright creative flame, winged, conferring
the gift of tongues, master of all music, of all joy, is the best thing we have of life.

    我与爱相恋，我真的很爱慕它----从那粗汉与自己的狗儿聊天时脸上呈现的微笑之中,从他对某个圣弗兰西斯或圣女贞德的热忱之中。那光亮创新的火焰,圣灵所赐的口才，所有音乐、愉悦的主人，是我们从生活中获取的最佳赏
赐。

生命的过客

When he told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which has just smashed. There were pieces of me all over the tidy, tan tiles. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving, explaining it was for the best, I could do better, it was his fault and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still not immune; perhaps one did not become immune to such felony.

　　当他告诉我他要离开的时候，我感觉自己就像花瓶裂成了碎片，跌落在茶色瓷砖地板上。他一直在说话，解释着为什么要离开，说什么这是最好的，我可以做得更好，都是他的错，与我无关。虽然这些话我已经听上好几千遍了，可每次听完都让我很受伤，或许在这样巨大的打击面前没有人能做到无动于衷。

　　He left and I tried to get on with my life. I filled the kettle and put it on to boil, I took out my old red mug and filled it with coffee watching as each coffee granule slipped in to the bone china. That was what my life had been like, endless omissions of coffee granules, somehow never managing to make that cup of coffee.

　　他走了，我尝试着继续过自己的生活。我烧开水，拿出红色杯子，看着咖啡粉末一点点地落入骨灰瓷的杯子里。这正是我自己的鲜活写照，不断地往下掉咖啡粉末，却从来没有真正地泡成一杯咖啡。

　　Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning I pretended not to hear it. That's what Mike's leaving had been like, sudden and with an awful finality. I would rather just wallow in uncertainty than have things finished. I laughed at myself. Imagine getting all philosophical and sentimental about a mug of coffee. I must be getting old.

　　水开了，水壶发出警报声，我假装没有听见。迈克的离去也是一样，突如其来，并且无可挽回。要知道，我宁愿忍受分与不分的煎熬，也不愿意以这样的方式被宣判“死刑”。想着想着我就哑然失笑，自己竟然为一杯咖啡有如此多的人生感怀，我自己一定是老了。

　　And yet it was a young woman who stared back at me from the mirror. A young woman full of promise and hope, a young woman with bright eyes and full lips just waiting to take on the world. I never loved Mike anyway. Besides there are more important things. More important than love, I insist to myself firmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closure on the whole Mike experience.
　
　　可是镜子里回瞪着我的那个女孩还是那么年轻啊！明目皓齿，充满了前途与希望，光明的未来在向她招手。没关系的，反正我也从来没有爱过迈克。何况，生命中还有比爱更重要的东西在等待着我，我对自己坚持说。我将咖啡罐的盖子盖好，也将所有关于迈克的记忆尘封起来。

　　He doesn't haunt my dreams as I feared that night. Instead I am flying far across fields and woods, looking down on those below me. Suddenly I fall to the ground and it is only when I wake up that I realize I was shot by a hunter, brought down by the burden of not the bullet but the soul of the man who shot it. I realize later, with some degree of understanding, that Mike was the hunter holding me down and I am the bird that longs to fly. The next night my dream is similar to the previous nights, but without the hunter. I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some relief that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a friend, but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken vase again and realize that I have glued myself back together, what Mike has is merely a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physical being. He has only, a little piece of me.

　　那天晚上，出乎意料的是，他并没有入到我的梦中。在梦里，我飞过田野和森林，俯瞰着大地。突然间，我掉了下来……醒来后才发现原来自己被猎人打中了，但是令我坠落的不是他的子弹，而是他的灵魂。我后来才渐渐明白，原来迈克就是那个使我坠落的猎人，而我是那只渴望飞翔的小鸟。到了第二天晚上，我仍然做了类似的梦，但是猎人不见了，我一直在自*由地飞翔，直到遇上另外一只小鸟和我比翼双飞。我开始意识到，总有那么一只鸟，那么一个人在前面等我，这个人可能是我的爱人，可能只是朋友，但一定是知我懂我的人，这令我感觉如释重负。我想起曾经觉得自己像花瓶一样裂开了，才意识到原来自己已经把自己修理好了。迈克只是我生命过程中的小小过客，他仅仅了解我的表面，他仅仅是我生命中的小小一部分。

母亲永远成不了父亲--A father's job is unique

　If parents had job descriptions mine would read: organize bills, playmates, laundry, meals, laundry, carpool, laundry, snacks, outings and shopping, and laundry.

        如果为人父母有职务简述的话，我的“职务简述”将会包括如下内容：管理账单和孩子们的玩耍同伴、洗衣、做饭、洗衣、安排与人合伙用车、洗衣、准备小吃、安排短途旅游、购物、洗衣。

　　The only thing on my husband's description would be the word "fun" written in big red letters along the top. Although he is a selfless caregiver and provider, our children think of him more as a combination of a jungle gym and bozo and clown.

        我先生的“职务简述”是在上端用红色写出的两个大字——“乐子”。尽管他无私地给予孩子们百般关爱，尽其所能为他们提供所需，我们的孩子们更多的时候还是把他看作攀缘游戏架、大傻瓜和小丑的三合一。

　　Our parenting styles compliment each other. His style is a nonstop adventure where no one has to worry about washing their hands, eating vegetables, or getting cavities. My style is similar to Mussolini. I'm too busy worrying to be fun. Besides, every time I try, I am constantly outdone by my husband.

        我们俩为人父母的风格是互补的。他的风格是持续不断的探险，在这过程中，没有人需要操心孩子是不是洗手了，是不是吃蔬菜了，或者会不会长蛀牙。我的风格则类似墨索里尼的执政风格。我太忙了，为这操心，为那操心，哪里顾得上找什么乐子。再者，每次我试图逗孩子们开心，我总是被我先生比下去。

　　I bought my children bubble gum flavored toothpaste and I taught them how to brush their teeth in tiny circles so they wouldn't get cavities. They thought it was neat until my husband taught them how to rinse by spitting out water between their two front teeth like a fountain.

        我给孩子们买来带泡泡糖香味的牙膏，教他们如何用牙刷转圈儿刷牙以免得蛀牙。他们认为那样刷挺好玩，直到有一天我先生教他们如何漱口——从两颗门牙间把水喷出来。他们发现这才叫好玩。

　　I took the children on a walk in the woods and, after two hours, I managed to corral a slow ladybug into my son's insect cage. I was "cool" until their father came home, spent two minutes in the backyard, and captured a beetle the size of a Chihuahua.

         我带孩子们到小树林里去散步，两个小时后，我好不容易才逮住一个迟钝的瓢虫放进我儿子的虫笼里。在他们眼里我是够“酷”的，直到他们的父亲回家，在后院里只花了两分钟，便捕获了一只有奇瓦瓦小狗那么大的甲虫！

          I try to tell myself I am a good parent even if my husband does things I can't do. I can make sure my children are safe, warm, and dry. I'll stand in line for five hours so the children can see Santa at the mall or be first in line to see the latest Disney movie. But I can't wire the VCR so my children can watch their favorite video.

         我劝慰自己我是个好妈妈，尽管我先生能做的事情我做不了。我可以确保我的孩子们是安全的、暖和的、干干爽爽的。我可以排队等个小时，让孩子们在大商场里看到圣诞老人——或者第一个排队让孩子们看最新的迪斯尼影片。但是我不会给录像机接上电线，好让孩子们看他们喜欢的录像。

　　I can carry my children in my arms when they are tired, tuck them into bed, and kiss them goodnight. But I can't flip them upside down so they can walk on the ceiling or prop them on my shoulders so they can see the moths flying inside of the light fixture.

         当孩子玩累时，我可以把他们抱到床上，亲吻他们，送他们进入梦乡。但是我无法让他们头冲下，那样他们可以脚踏天花板漫步；或者把他们扛在我的肩膀上，让他们看飞蛾如何在灯具里飞舞。

　　I can take them to doctor appointments, scout meetings, or field trips to the aquarium, but I'll never go into the wilderness, skewer a worm on a hook, reel in a fish, and cook it over an open flame on a piece of tin foil.

         我可以带他们去看医生，参加童子军集会，或者带他们去参观水族馆，但是我永远也不会进入荒郊野地，在鱼钩上挂上虫饵，钓上一条鱼，然后把鱼用锡纸包起来在明火上烤着吃。

　　I'll even sit in the first row of every Little League game and cheer until my throat is sore and my tonsils are raw, but I'll never teach my son how to hit a home run or slide into first base.

    我甚至可以出席每一场少年棒球联合会的比赛，坐在第一排呐喊助威，直到我的嗓子喊疼了，我的扁桃体发炎了，但是我永远无法教我的儿子如何打一个本垒打或者如何巧妙进入一垒的位置。

　　As a mother I can do a lot of things for my children, but no matter how hard I try--I can never be their father.

　　作为一个母亲，我可以为我的孩子们做许多事情，但是不管我怎样努力——我永远成为不了他们的父亲。
