　　Giving Life Meaning

　　Have you thought about what you want people to say about you after you’re gone? Can you hear the voice saying, “He was a great man.” Or “She really will be missed.” What else do they say?

　　One of the strangest phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will last long after death. Isn’t that a lot like investing all your money so that future generations can bare interest on it? Perhaps, yet if you look deep in your own heart, you’ll find something drives you to make this kind of contribution---something drives every human being to find a purpose that lives on after death.

　　Do you hope to memorialize your name? Have a name that is whispered with reverent awe? Do you hope to have your face carved upon 50 ft of granite rock? Is the answer really that simple? Is the purpose of lifetime contribution an ego-driven desire for a mortal being to have an immortal name or is it something more?

　　A child alive today will die tomorrow. A baby that had the potential to be the next Einstein will die from complication is at birth. The circumstances of life are not set in stone. We are not all meant to live life through to old age. We’ve grown to perceive life3 as a full cycle with a certain number of years in between. If all of those years aren’t lived out, it’s a tragedy. A tragedy because a human’s potential was never realized. A tragedy because a spark was snuffed out before it ever became a flame.

　　By virtue of inhabiting a body we accept these risks. We expose our mortal flesh to the laws of the physical environment around us. The trade off isn’t so bad when you think about it. The problem comes when we construct mortal fantasies of what life should be like. When life doesn’t conform to our fantasy we grow upset, frustrated, or depressed.

　　We are alive; let us live. We have the ability to experience; let us experience. We have the ability to learn; let us learn. The meaning of life can be grasped in a moment. A moment so brief it often evades our perception.

　　What meaning stands behind the dramatic unfolding of life? What single truth can we grasp and hang onto for dear life when all other truths around us seem to fade with time?

　　These moments are strung together in a series we call events. These events are strung together in a series we call life. When we seize the moment and bend it according to our will, a will driven by the spirit deep inside us, then we have discovered the meaning of life, a meaning for us that shall go on long after we depart this Earth.

　　給生命以意義

　　你有沒(méi)有想過(guò)，你希望人們?cè)谀闼篮笤鯓釉u(píng)論你?你能否聽(tīng)到這樣的說(shuō)，“他是個(gè)偉大的人”或“人們的確會(huì)懷念她”，他們還會(huì)說(shuō)些什么?

　　人生最奇異的現(xiàn)象之一就是，你從事的事業(yè)在你死后仍將長(zhǎng)久存在。這和你用所的錢(qián)進(jìn)行投資以便后人能從中獲益不是如出一轍嗎?也許，如果你審視自己的內(nèi)心深處，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)促使你做出這種貢獻(xiàn)的驅(qū)動(dòng)力-一種驅(qū)使每個(gè)人尋找在自己死后仍能繼續(xù)存在的事業(yè)的驅(qū)動(dòng)力。

　　你希望自己的名字被人記住嗎?你希望別人提起你的名字時(shí)心懷敬畏嗎?你希望自己的面容被雕刻在50英尺高的花崗巖上嗎?答案真的那么簡(jiǎn)單嗎?貢獻(xiàn)一生的目的難道終將一死之人想要獲得不朽名聲的自我鞭策的欲望?抑或是其他更偉大的事物?

　　今天活著的孩子明天就會(huì)死去。一個(gè)有可能成為下一個(gè)愛(ài)因斯坦的嬰兒會(huì)死于出生并發(fā)癥。生命的情形并不是固定不變的。我們并沒(méi)有注定都要活到老年。我們已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到，生命是一個(gè)周期，其時(shí)間長(zhǎng)度是特定的。如果這些時(shí)間沒(méi)有被充分利用，那就是個(gè)悲劇，因?yàn)槿说臐撃苓€未實(shí)現(xiàn)，因?yàn)榛鸹ㄟ€沒(méi)形成火焰就被補(bǔ)滅。

　　由于存在于肉體之中，所以我們接受這些風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。我們使易朽的肉體服從周?chē)锢憝h(huán)境的法則。你仔細(xì)想一想就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，這種交易并不是那么糟糕。當(dāng)我們幻想生命應(yīng)該如何時(shí)，問(wèn)題就來(lái)了。當(dāng)生命和我們的幻想不一致時(shí)，我們就變得煩惱，無(wú)奈或沮喪。

　　我們活著，那我們就要活得精彩;我們有能力體驗(yàn)，那我們就要體驗(yàn)人生甘苦;我們有能力學(xué)習(xí)，那我們就要在學(xué)海徜徉。生命的意義可以在一瞬間抓住-一個(gè)經(jīng)常被我們忽略的短暫瞬間。

　　當(dāng)生命戲劇般地一幕幕拉開(kāi)時(shí)，其中隱含的意義是什么?當(dāng)我們周?chē)衅渌妓坪蹼S著時(shí)間而消逝時(shí)，我們能夠掌握哪個(gè)真理并依靠它來(lái)生活呢?

　　這些瞬間串聯(lián)在一起，我們稱(chēng)之為事件。這些事件串聯(lián)系在一起，

　　我們稱(chēng)之為生活。當(dāng)我們抓住那個(gè)瞬間并按照我們的意志來(lái)改變它-這意志受到我們內(nèi)心深處的精神的驅(qū)使，我們就發(fā)現(xiàn)了生命的意義-這意義將在我們離開(kāi)地球之后長(zhǎng)久存在。

　　英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)段落閱讀

　　A Better Tomorrow

　　People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve millions of books,documents and records.

　　Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do werecord and save the actions of men, the negotiations of government officials and the eventsduring wars?

　　We do it because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen.Sometimes, past records, when understood in the right way, can help us decide what to do andwhat not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in humanexperience and in the records of human history.

　　From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations ofyouth. History records the suffering, the self-denial, the devotion, and the heroic deeds ofpeople in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really needpeace.

　　The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those whopromote war,and inspiration to those who seek peace.

　　In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday’s records can keep us from repeating yesterday’smistakes. And from the pieces of mosaic assembled by historians come the great murals whichrepresent the progress ofmankind.

　　更好的明天

　　人們常常心存疑慮,為什么歷史學(xué)家要費(fèi)盡周折地保存數(shù)以萬(wàn)計(jì)的書(shū)籍、文獻(xiàn)和記錄。

　　我們?yōu)槭裁匆袌D書(shū)館呢?這些文獻(xiàn)和史書(shū)有何用處呢? 我們?yōu)槭裁匆涊d并保存人類(lèi)的行為、政府官員的談判和戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中的事件呢?

　　我們這么做的原因在于有時(shí)候經(jīng)驗(yàn)之音能促使我們停步、觀察和傾聽(tīng)。也因?yàn)橛袝r(shí)候過(guò)去的記載經(jīng)過(guò)正確地詮釋,能幫助我們決定何事可為、何事不可為。如果我們想要?jiǎng)?chuàng)造永久的和平,我們就必須從人類(lèi)的經(jīng)驗(yàn)以及人類(lèi)歷史的記載中去探索其淵源。

　　從體現(xiàn)男性和女性勇敢和奉獻(xiàn)精神的故事之中,我們獲得了青春的啟示。歷史記載著人類(lèi)的一切苦難、克己、忠誠(chéng)和英勇的事跡。這些記載在我們困惑和渴望和平時(shí)能對(duì)我們有所幫助。

　　歷史的主要目的是創(chuàng)造一個(gè)更加美好的世界。歷史對(duì)那些力主戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的人給以警告,給予那些尋求和平的人以啟示。

　　簡(jiǎn)而言之,歷史幫助我們學(xué)習(xí)。昨日的記載可以使我們避免重蹈覆轍。這些歷史學(xué)家們創(chuàng)作的像馬賽克一樣色彩繽紛的歷史片斷匯聚成了代表人類(lèi)進(jìn)步的偉大壁畫(huà)。

　　英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)段落學(xué)習(xí)

　　Napoleon declared, “Victory belongs to the most persevering.”Upon careful study we findperseverance depends upon three things - purpose,will, and enthusiasm. He who has apurpose is always concentrating his forces.By the will, the hope and the plan are preventedfrom evaporating into dreams.Enthusiasm keeps the interest up, and makes the obstacles seemsmall.

　　Life is in a sense a battle. The man who thinks to get on by mere smartness and by idling meetsfailure atlast.Perseverance is the master impulse of the firmest souls, and holds the key tothose treasure-houses of knowledge from which the world has drawn its wealth both of wisdomand of moral worth.

　　Great men never wait for opportunities; they make them. They seize upon whatever is at hand,work out their problem, and master the situation. The greatest thing a man can do in this worldis to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given to him. This is success andthere is no other.

　　One of the important lessons of life is to learn how to get victory out of defeat. It takescourage and stamina, when mortified by humiliating disaster, to seek in the ruins the elementsof future conquest. Yet this measures the difference between those who succeed and thosewho fail. We cannot measure a man by his failures. We must know what use he makes ofthem. The man who has not fought his way upward and does not bear the scar of desperateconflict does not know the highest meaning of success.

　　拿破侖宣稱(chēng)，“勝利屬于堅(jiān)持不懈的人”。經(jīng)過(guò)仔細(xì)研究，我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，堅(jiān)持不懈取決子于三個(gè)方面——目標(biāo)，意志和熱情。一個(gè)目標(biāo)明確的人總是能夠集中他的精力。有了堅(jiān)定的決心，就能夠避免希望和計(jì)劃在夢(mèng)想中化為泡影。而沖天的熱情,能夠讓人永遠(yuǎn)興致勃勃，藐視一切艱難險(xiǎn)阻。

　　從某種意義上講，生活是一場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)役。那種妄想憑借小聰明閑混到出人頭地的人最終只會(huì)落得失敗的下場(chǎng)。堅(jiān)持不懈是那些信念堅(jiān)定的人主導(dǎo)性的精神動(dòng)力，其把持著開(kāi)啟那些知識(shí)寶庫(kù)的鑰匙，全世界的人都可以從中獲取智慧和道德的財(cái)富。

　　偉大的人們從不坐等機(jī)會(huì);他們會(huì)自行創(chuàng)造。他們會(huì)抓住一切手邊的機(jī)會(huì)，解決遇到的難題，并且自己掌控局面。在這個(gè)世界上，一個(gè)人所能做的最偉大的事情就是，從給予他的有限的機(jī)會(huì)之中進(jìn)行最大可能的發(fā)掘。這便是成功，僅此而已。

　　人生最重要的一課，便是學(xué)會(huì)如何從失敗之中邁向成功。身負(fù)失敗的屈辱和不幸，我們需要勇氣和毅力，在失敗的廢墟中尋找未來(lái)獲勝的要素。而這恰能衡量出成功者與失敗者的不同。我們不能用失敗來(lái)衡量一個(gè)人。我們必須了解他如何利用這些失敗。一個(gè)不思上進(jìn)、沒(méi)有絕望掙扎的傷痕烙在心頭的人, 無(wú)法體會(huì)成功的最高意境。
