關(guān)于精短的英語(yǔ)文章閱讀篇一
Thoughts and Actions
Some people go through life standing at the excuse counter.
They say they’d like to do this or that, but then they offer all the excuses in the world for why they can’t do whatever it is. No matter what the excuses are, the only thing that is usually limiting them is their own self-perception.
If I’ve learned anything, I’ve learned that a person —any person —may do anything they set their mind on doing. The things you need are willingness to work for what you want, patience to learn what you need to know and, most important of all, belief in yourself. You only need a seed, and then your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward.
If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you’re not smart enough, then take the time to learn what you need to know, and then your self-perception will change.
If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you never finish anything you start, then go and finish something and change your self- perception.
If your self-perception is that you’re too lazy, too busy, too unworthy, too unfocused, too depressed, or too dependent on others to accomplish great things, then you’re right. You are that because you believe you are, but in fact, you can change that! Life is change, and the past doesn’t equal the future. Your reality today is the result of your past beliefs and actions. Change your beliefs and actions, and you will change your future. Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right. You are what you think.
Think about that the next time you need an excuse.
翻譯：思想與行動(dòng)
有些人的一生都在借口中度過(guò)。
他們總是說(shuō)喜歡這喜歡那,只是隨之給出各種理由來(lái)解釋他為什么沒(méi)能去做。但無(wú)論是什么借口,唯一能限制他們行為的通常只是他們的自我認(rèn)知。
如果說(shuō)我確實(shí)明白了一些事情,那就是了解了一個(gè)人,任何一個(gè)人,幾乎可以做成任何事情,只要他們下決心去做。你需要的只是為夢(mèng)想而奮斗的意愿、為學(xué)習(xí)必要知識(shí)的耐心,但是最重要的是你的自信。你只需播下一粒夢(mèng)想的種子,你的信念將會(huì)隨著你一起成長(zhǎng)。
如果你自認(rèn)為是因不夠聰明而不能完成某件事情,那么就花些時(shí)間去學(xué)習(xí)所需要的知識(shí),這樣,你的自我認(rèn)知就會(huì)改變。
如果你自認(rèn)為你不能完成某件事情常常是因?yàn)榘胪径鴱U,那么就去做完它,將這種自我認(rèn)知徹底改變。
如果你自認(rèn)為是因太懶惰、太忙、太卑微、太不專心、太消沉、太依賴別人而不能做成大事,那么你是對(duì)的。英語(yǔ)短文你確實(shí)是這樣,因?yàn)槟阕约壕褪沁@樣認(rèn)為的。但事實(shí)上你能夠改變。生活無(wú)時(shí)無(wú)刻不在變化,過(guò)去不等于未來(lái)。你的現(xiàn)在正是你過(guò)去所想所做的必然結(jié)果。改變你的信念和行動(dòng),成就你的將來(lái)。如果你認(rèn)為你能或不能做什么,那么你是對(duì)的,因?yàn)檎悄愕乃枷朐炀土四恪?/p>
下次你找什么借口的時(shí)候,仔細(xì)思量一番。

The future can be anything we want to make
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it.
We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.
Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our businesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.
翻譯：未來(lái)盡在掌控
我不知道這段文字是誰(shuí)寫(xiě)的，我一直很喜歡并用它們來(lái)提醒自己，那就是未來(lái)操之在我。
我們可以掌握神秘而不可知的未來(lái)，從中創(chuàng)出我們所能想象的任何東西，一如雕刻家可以將未成型的石頭刻出雕像一樣。
我們每個(gè)人都是農(nóng)夫。我們?nèi)舴N下好種子，就會(huì)有豐收。倘若種子長(zhǎng)得不良且長(zhǎng)滿雜草，我們就會(huì)徒勞無(wú)獲。如果我們什么也不種，就根本不會(huì)有什么收獲。
我希望未來(lái)會(huì)比過(guò)去更好。我不希望未來(lái)會(huì)被那些充斥在歷史中的錯(cuò)誤所污染。我們應(yīng)關(guān)心未來(lái)，因?yàn)橥蟮挠嗌家谖磥?lái)中度過(guò)。
往昔已一去不復(fù)返而且是靜止的。任憑我們?cè)趺磁Χ疾荒芨淖冞^(guò)去。英語(yǔ)短文未來(lái)就在我們眼前而且是動(dòng)態(tài)的。我們的所作所為都會(huì)影響未來(lái)。
只要我們體會(huì)的出來(lái)，每天都可以發(fā)現(xiàn)新的知識(shí)領(lǐng)域伴隨而生，可能是在家里，也可能是在我們的事業(yè)中。我們正處在人類所努力鉆研的每個(gè)領(lǐng)域中進(jìn)步的起點(diǎn)。

Burning Your Soul Candle
I have a few candles stored in a drawer in my dining room. They’re meant for romantic dinners and special occasions, but since the arrival of our three children they have lain unnoticed among the napkins and other things. They are waiting to be taken out and lit to share their glow with anyone who will take the time to bask in their brilliance.
Are not our souls like those candles, patiently waiting for someone to come and let us be ourselves? We are all waiting for our own moments to shine; we each have a special light, unmatched by any other.
Candles are made up of wax and a wick; we have bodies, but our essence lies in our minds and souls. Candles are unique in their colors, shapes and designs. Our life histories and experiences are the backdrops of who we are, but our minds are like candle wicks, and make our passions flame. Unlike the candles in my drawer, who get used or not used depending on my whims, we control our own thoughts, and how brightly we will burn or dimly we will shine.
Is your soul candle dimmed by circumstance or lack of passion and direction? Is it hidden in a drawer of stress, worry or resentment? Make a choice to let yourself shine the way you were meant to shine.
翻譯：點(diǎn)亮心靈的蠟燭
在我餐廳的抽屜里放著幾根蠟燭。它們會(huì)用于浪漫的晚餐和一些特殊的場(chǎng)合，但是自從我的三個(gè)孩子出生之后，它們便被遺忘在餐巾紙和其他雜物之間了。它們一直在等待著被拿出抽屜，被點(diǎn)亮，以和任何一個(gè)愿意花費(fèi)時(shí)間去感受它們溫暖的人分享那些光亮。
我們的靈魂不也像蠟燭么?耐心地等待有人來(lái)發(fā)掘我們，讓我們發(fā)光發(fā)亮。我們一直等待著發(fā)光發(fā)亮的一刻;我們都有自己獨(dú)特的光亮，是別人所不能匹及的。
蠟燭由蠟狀物和蠟燭心組合而成;人類有肉體，而我們的本質(zhì)卻存在于精神和靈魂中。蠟燭有它們獨(dú)一無(wú)二的顏色、形狀和圖案。我們生命的歷史和經(jīng)歷是決定我們是誰(shuí)的大背景，但是只有我們的心靈才是蠟燭心，使熱情形成火焰。與在抽屜里等著別人一時(shí)的興致來(lái)決定是否被點(diǎn)燃的蠟燭不同，我們可以決定自己的思想，決定自己能夠發(fā)光發(fā)亮還是黯淡無(wú)光。
你心中的那支蠟燭是否因環(huán)境或者缺少激情，沒(méi)有方向感而黯淡無(wú)光?它是否藏匿于壓力、擔(dān)憂和怨恨的抽屜里?做出選擇吧，以自己注定的方式去發(fā)光。
