英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇一:A Walk in the Rain
As the rain poured down, I found myself in a dilemma. Should I stay indoors, warm and dry, or should I venture out into the wet and embrace the beauty of the rain? Ultimately, my curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to take a walk in the rain.
As soon as I stepped outside, I was greeted by the refreshing scent of wet earth. The raindrops fell lightly on my face, creating a soothing sensation. I walked along the deserted streets, my footsteps echoing in the quietness of the rain. The city seemed to have transformed into a different world, where everything was washed clean and glistening.
I passed by a park, and couldn't resist the temptation to enter. The trees stood tall and proud, their leaves dancing in the rain. The grass was a vibrant shade of green, as if it had been rejuvenated by the downpour. I found a bench under a large tree and sat down, closing my eyes to fully immerse myself in the symphony of raindrops hitting the leaves and the ground.
A sense of tranquility washed over me. In that moment, I realized that the rain had a magical way of washing away all my worries and stress. It was as if each raindrop carried away a little piece of my troubles, leaving me feeling lighter and more at peace.
As I continued my walk, I noticed a group of children playing in the rain. Their laughter filled the air, infectious and joyful. They ran through puddles, their clothes becoming soaked, but their smiles never fading. It was a reminder of the simple pleasures in life, the ones that we often overlook or take for granted.
By the time I returned home, my clothes were drenched and my hair was dripping wet. But my heart was filled with a sense of contentment and gratitude. I had ventured out into the rain, and in doing so, I had discovered the beauty and serenity that can be found in the simplest of moments.
So, the next time it rains, don't hide indoors. Grab an umbrella or simply let the raindrops fall on your face. Take a walk in the rain, and allow yourself to be captivated by its magic. You might just find that it's the rainiest days that bring the most clarity and peace.
英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇二:The Power of Kindness
In a world that often feels cold and indifferent, kindness can be a powerful force that brings warmth and connection. It is a simple act, yet it has the ability to transform not only the lives of others, but also our own.
Kindness is like a ripple in a pond. It starts small, but as it spreads, it touches the lives of more and more people. A kind word or a small gesture can brighten someone's day, lift their spirits, and remind them that they are not alone in this world.
Kindness costs us nothing, yet its value is immeasurable. When we choose to be kind, we create a ripple effect that has the potential to change the world. It can inspire others to be kind as well, creating a chain reaction of positivity and compassion.
Kindness transcends boundaries and differences. It doesn't discriminate based on race, religion, or social status. It is a universal language that everyone can understand and appreciate. In a world that is often divided, kindness has the power to bring people together and bridge the gaps between us.
But perhaps the most remarkable thing about kindness is that it not only benefits those who receive it, but also those who give it. When we choose to be kind, we experience a sense of fulfillment and happiness that cannot be found elsewhere. It is in acts of kindness that we find our truest selves and connect with the essence of our humanity.
So, let us choose kindness. Let us be the ones who reach out a helping hand, who lend a listening ear, and who offer a smile to brighten someone's day. Let us be the ones who make a difference, no matter how small, in the lives of others.
In a world that can often be harsh and unkind, let us be the ones who bring warmth and compassion. Let us be the ones who create ripples of kindness that spread far and wide. For it is in these acts of kindness that we can truly make a difference and create a better world for all.
英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇三
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.
有时候,我真的怀疑父母之间是否有真爱。他们天天忙于赚钱,为我和弟弟支付学费。他们从未像我在书中读到,或在电视中看到的那样互诉衷肠。他们认为”我爱你”太奢侈,很难说出口。更不用说在情人节送花这样的事了。我父亲的脾气非常坏。经过一天的劳累之后,他经常会发脾气。
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.
一天,妈正在缝被子,我静静地坐在她旁边看着她。
“Mom, I have a question to ask you,” I said after a while.
过了一会,我说:”妈妈,我想问你一个问题。”
“What?” she replied, still doing her work.
“什么问题?”她一边继续缝着,一边回答道。
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
我低声地问道:”你和爸之间有没有爱情啊?”
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.
妈突然停下了手中的活,满眼诧异地抬起头。她没有立即作答。然后低下头,继续缝被子。
I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:
我担心伤害了她。我非常尴尬,不知道该怎么办。不过,后来我听见妈说:
“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread.Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside.”
“苏珊,看看这些线。有时候,你能看得见,但是大多数都隐藏在被子里。这些线使被子坚固耐用。如果生活就像一床被子,那么爱就是其中的线。你不可能随时随地看到它,但是它却实实在在地存在着。爱是内在的
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale. It seemed both of them had had a serious illness.
我仔细地听着,却无法明白她的话,直到来年的春天。那时候,我父亲得了重病。妈在医院里待了一个月。当他们从医院回来的时候,都显得非常苍白。就像他们都得了一场重病一样。
After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed they were the most harmonious couple. Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently glistened through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world.
他们回来之后,每天的清晨或黄昏,妈都会搀扶着父亲在乡村的小路上漫步。父亲从未如此温和过。他们就像是天作之合。在小路旁边,有许多美丽的野花、绿草和树木。阳光穿过树叶的缝隙,温柔地照射在地面上。这一切形成了一幅世间最美好的画面。
The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him.
医生说父亲将在两个月后康复。但是两个月之后,他仍然无法独立行走。我们都很为他担心。
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
有一天,我问他:“爸,你感觉怎么样?”
“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
他温和地说:“苏珊,不用为我担心。跟你说吧,我喜欢与你妈妈一块散步的感觉。我喜欢这种生活。”从他的眼神里,我看得出他对妈的爱之深刻。
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm..
我曾经认为爱情就是鲜花、礼物和甜蜜的亲吻。但是从那一刻起,我明白了,爱情就像是生活中被子里的一根线。爱情就在里面,使生活变得坚固而温暖。
英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇四
In the eternal universe, every human being has a one-off chance to live --his existence is unique and irretrievable, for the mold with which he was made, as Rousseau said, was broken by God immediately afterwards.
在茫茫宇宙间,每个人都只有一次生存的机会,都是一个独一无二、不可重复的存在。正像卢梭所说的,上帝把你造出来后,就把那个属于你的特定的模子打碎了。
Fame, wealth and knowledge are merely worldly possessions that are within the reach of anybody striving for them. But your experience of and feelings about life are your own and not to be shared. No one can live your life over again after your death. A full awareness of this will point out to you that the most important thing in your existence is your distinctive inpiduality or something special of yours. What really counts is not your worldly success but your peculiar insight into the meaning of life and your commitment to it, which add luster to your personality.
名声、财产、知识等等是身外之物,人人都可求而得之,但没有人能够代替你感受人生。你死之后,没有人能够代替你再活一次。如果你真正意识到了这一点,你就会明 白,活在世上,最重要的事就是活出你自己的特色和滋味来。你的人生是否有意义,衡 量的标准不是外在的成功,而是你对人生意义的独特领悟和坚守,从而使你的自我闪放 出个性的光华。
It is not easy to be what one really is. There is many a person in the world who can be identified as anything either his job, his status or his social role that shows no trace about his inpiduality. It does do him justice to say that he has no identity of his own, if he doesn't know his own mind and all his things are either arranged by others or done on others' sugg estions; if his life, always occupied by external things, is completely void of an inner world. You won't be able to find anything whatever, from head to heart, that truly belongs to him. He is, indeed, no more than a shadow cast by somebody else or a machine capable of doing business.
真正成为自己不是一件容易的事。世上有许多人,你说他是什么都行,例如是一种 职业,一个身份,一个角色,惟独不是他自己。如果一个人总是按别人的意见生活,没 有自己的独立思索,总是为外在事务忙碌,没有自己的内心生活,那么,说他不是他自 己就一点儿也没有冤枉他。因为确确实实,从他的头脑到他的心灵,你在其中已经找不 到丝毫真正属于他自己的东西了,他只是别人的一个影子或一架办事的机器罢了。
英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇五
John and Bobby joined a wholesale company togther just after graduation from college the same year. Both worked very hard. After several years, however, the boss promoted Bobby to theposotion of manager but John remained an ordinary employee. John could not take it anymore, tendered his resignation to the boss and complained the boss did not know how to delegate and did not value hard working staff, but only promoted those who flattered him.
The boss knew that John worked very hard for the years. He thought a moment and said, "Thank you for your criticism, but I have a request. I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your decision and take back your resignation."
John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelon in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelon. The boss asked how much per kg? John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to inform the boss $1.2 per kg.
Boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone seling watermelon in the market. Bobby went, returned and said, boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, $10 for 10kg, he has inventory of 340 melons. On the table 58 melons, every melon weights about 2 kg, bought from the South two days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality.
John was very impresed and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided not to resign but to learn from Bobby.
My dear friends, a more successful person is more observant, thinks more and explores in depth. Chances exists in the daily details. For the same matter, a more successful person sees more and farther so that he can find out an opportunity and catch it to realize his aim. If a person sees one year ahead, while another sees only tomorrow. The difference between a year and a day is 365times, how could you win?
英语美文朗诵欣赏 篇六
We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, thenanother. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content whenthey are. After that we' re frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly behappy when they are out of that stage.
我们总是相信,等我们结了婚,生了孩子生活会更美好。等有了孩子,我们又因为他们不够大而烦恼,想等他们大些时,我们就会开心了。可等他们进人青少年时期,我们还是同样地苦恼,于是又相信等他们过了这一阶段,幸福就会到来。
We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her acttogether, when we get a nicer car, and are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire. Thetruth is, there's no better time than right now. If not now, when? Our life will always be filledwith challenges. It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.
我们总是告诉自己,等夫妻间任一方肯于合作,等我们拥有更好的车,等我们能去度一次美妙的假期,等我们退休后,我们的生活一定会完美的。而事实的真相是,没有任何时刻比现在更宝贵。倘若不是现在,又会是何时?我们的生活每时每刻都会有挑战。最好是让自己接受这一事实,无论如何使自己保持快乐的心境。
One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred Souza. He said, "For a long time it had seemed tome that life was about to begin-real life.But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, someunfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last itdawned onto me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see thatthere is no way to happiness.
我很欣赏艾尔弗雷德?苏泽的一段名言。他说:"长期以来,我都觉得生活--真正的生活似乎即将开始。可是总会遇到某种障碍,如得先完成一些事情。没做完的工作,要奉献的时间,该付的债,等等。之后生活才会开始。最后我醒悟过来了,这些障碍本身就是我的生活。"这一观点让我意识到没有什么通往幸福的道路。
Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment that you have.And remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you finish school, until you goback to school; until you get married, until you get porced; until you have kids, until your kidsleave home; until you start work, until you retire; until you get a new car or home; untilspring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to behappy....
幸福本身就是路,所以,珍惜你拥有的每一刻,且记住时不我待,不要再作所谓的等待;你上完学,等你再回到学校;等你结婚或离婚;等你有了孩子或孩子长大离开家;等你开始工作或等你退休;等你有了新车或新房;等春天来临;等你有幸再来世上走一遭才明白此时此刻最应快乐……
Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So,Work like you don't need money,
幸福是一个旅程,不是终点站;所以工作吧,如同不需要金钱一样;
Love like you've never been hurt,And dance like no one's watching.
去爱吧,如同从未受过伤害一样;跳舞吧,如同没有人注视一样。
to love, like never been hurt,to dance,like no one appreciate;
去爱吧,就像不曾受过伤一样;跳舞吧,像没有人会欣赏一样。
to sing, like no one listen to,to work, like no need of money;
唱歌吧,像没有人会聆听一样。干活吧,像是不需要金钱一样。
to life, like today is the end.
生活吧,就像今天是末日一样。
