英語(yǔ)短文閱讀[優(yōu)選15篇]
英語(yǔ)短文閱讀1
一、摒棄6大不良閱讀習(xí)慣。
1.讀得非常慢,非常仔細(xì),不相信自己能全部理解所讀的東西。
2.閱讀時(shí)嘴唇和舌頭在動(dòng)。
3.頭隨著文字符號(hào)的位置左右移動(dòng)。
4.經(jīng)常回讀,讀過(guò)的東西又重新讀一遍、甚至幾遍。
5.讀什么樣體裁的文章都用一樣的速度。
6.有很多單詞不認(rèn)識(shí),或不知道它在此處的含義。
二、帶著6個(gè)問(wèn)題閱讀:
1.作者要表達(dá)的主要思想。
2.文章的主要內(nèi)容和次要內(nèi)容,并能把他們區(qū)分開(kāi)來(lái)。
3.了解并記住文章中最重要的內(nèi)容。
4.文章結(jié)構(gòu)及事件發(fā)生的時(shí)間、空間順序。
5.作者的`觀點(diǎn)、意圖、寫(xiě)作風(fēng)格及其偏見(jiàn)等。
6.用自己的閱歷和知識(shí)對(duì)文章進(jìn)行分析、評(píng)價(jià)。
三、遇到生詞要會(huì)猜,閱讀中遇到生詞,最好的方法是通過(guò)上下文猜測(cè)。
1.看看上下文中有沒(méi)有生詞的另一種說(shuō)法,即找同義詞。有時(shí)下文會(huì)對(duì)一個(gè)詞做解釋?zhuān)蛘咛峁┮恍┌凳尽?/p>
2.看詞性,判斷其是名詞、動(dòng)詞、形容詞、副詞或其他詞類(lèi)。
3.分析生詞的構(gòu)成,尤其是詞的前綴和后綴。英語(yǔ)中很多詞都是加前綴和后綴而來(lái)的。比如根據(jù)前綴re-和后綴-ity的含義,你就可以準(zhǔn)確地猜出rewrite和similarity的意思。
4.看看同一生詞是否在上下文的其他地方出現(xiàn),把兩處的語(yǔ)境相比較,也許更能準(zhǔn)確地猜出詞義。
5.充分利用你閱讀內(nèi)容中已有的知識(shí)。
四、以下幾條建議可以幫助推論:
1.結(jié)合作者的思想、觀點(diǎn)及其創(chuàng)作目的、創(chuàng)作背景進(jìn)行推論。
2.尋找作者直接陳述的諸多事件之間的聯(lián)系。
3.仔細(xì)體會(huì)一些重要詞的含蓄意義及其感情色彩。比如politician和statesman的意思都是“政客家”,但前者有貶義的色彩,即“政客”,后者則沒(méi)有。
4.從作者的語(yǔ)氣、語(yǔ)調(diào)、措辭等文體特征,讀出作者的“言外之意”。
5.得出推論后,盡量從上下文中尋找證據(jù)。
6.充分利用自己各方面的知識(shí),把文章中所述的事件和自己的閱歷或熟悉的事情聯(lián)系起來(lái)思考。

英語(yǔ)短文閱讀3
It may sound crazy that anyone would intentionally make quitting smoking any harder than necessary. But Ican guarantee that if you want to know a secret about how to quit smoking, then just stop making it so hardfor yourself.
Henry Ford once said, that if you think you can or you think you can't, then either way you are right. Here inlies the problem. Many smokers think they can't, or think it will be very hard.
They say things like:
1. Cigarettes are my friend: Wow talk about a lousy friend.
2. I'll be lost without them: Nothing quite so comforting as lighting a toxic cigarette.
3. I need my cigarettes to think: Nothing like 4000 toxic chemicals flooding your brain to help cognition.
4. Cigarettes help me when I'm stressed. Nicotine causes an adrenal response, flooding your system withadrenalin and cortisol, nothing good about that.
5. Smoking helps me relax. Again the nicotine does no such thing. It's taking time out that is relaxing.
6. I like smoking when I eat. Just wait until your food tastes like food and not an ashtray.
7. I always smoke with alcohol. Have a look around, notice the non smokers are doing just fine, withoutsmoking.
8. I put on weight if I quit. Smokers are no less thin or fat than any other group in society. Smoking actuallymakes it hard for your liver to break down fats properly.
In fact one of the best pieces of advice I can give to a smoker is to just observe non smokers going abouttheir day. See them when they are relaxed, stressed, busy, thinking, bored, eating or drinking.
The non smokers are managing just fine without any assistance from cigarettes. Focussing on all thereasons you think you need to smoke is just making it very hard for you. You can't quit when you think yourlife is so dependent on smoking.
The first thing to do is to look at the list and just think about it. Start to realise that smoking doesn't makeanything better. It doesn't help you to relax or thing, or drive better or hold a better conversation on thephone.
All it does is cost you a lot of money, make you smell like an ashtray, and strip away 14 years of life onaverage. And did I mention the slow painful lingering death.

A Plate of Peas 一盤(pán)豌豆
My grandfather died when I was a small boy, and my grandmother started staying with us for about six months every year. She lived in a room that doubled as my father's office, which we referred to as "the back room." She carried with her a powerful aroma. I don‘t know what kind of perfume she used, but it was the double-barreled, ninety-proof, knockdown, render-the-victim-unconscious, moose-killing variety. She kept it in a huge atomizer and applied it frequently and liberally. It was almost impossible to go into her room and remain breathing for any length of time. When she would leave the house to go spend six months with my Aunt Lillian, my mother and sisters would throw open all the windows, strip the bed, and take out the curtains and rugs. Then they would spend several days washing and airing things out, trying frantically to make the pungent odor go away.
This, then, was my grandmother at the time of the infamous pea incident.
It took place at the Biltmore Hotel, which, to my eight-year-old mind, was just about the fancies place to eat in all of Providence. My grandmother, my mother, and I were having lunch after a morning spent shopping. I grandly ordered a salisbury steak, confident in the knowledge that beneath that fancy name was a good old hamburger with gravy. When brought to the table, it was accompanied by a plate of peas. I do not like peas now. I did not like peas then. I have always hated peas. It is a complete mystery to me why anyone would voluntarily eat peas. I did not eat them at home. I did not eat them at restaurants. And I certainly was not about to eat them now. "Eat your peas," my grandmother said.
"Mother," said my mother in her warning voice. "He doesn‘t like peas. Leave him alone."
My grandmother did not reply, but there was a glint in her eye and a grim set to her jaw that signaled she was not going to be thwarted. She leaned in my direction, looked me in the eye, and uttered the fateful words that changed my life: "I'll pay you five dollars if you eat those peas."
I had absolutely no idea of the impending doom. I only knew that five dollars was an enormous, nearly unimaginable amount of money, and as awful as peas were, only one plate of them stood between me and the possession of that five dollars. I began to force the wretched things down my throat.
My mother was livid. My grandmother had that self-satisfied look of someone who has thrown down an unbeatable trump card. "I can do what I want, Ellen, and you can‘t stop me." My mother glared at her mother. She glared at me. No one can glare like my mother. If there were a glaring Olympics, she would undoubtedly win the gold medal.
I, of course, kept shoving peas down my throat. The glares made me nervous, and every single pea made me want to throw up, but the magical image of that five dollars floated before me, and I finally gagged down every last one of them. My grandmother handed me the five dollars with a flourish. My mother continued to glare in silence. And the episode ended. Or so I thought.
My grandmother left for Aunt Lillian's a few weeks later. That night, at dinner, my mother served two of my all-time favorite foods, meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Along with them came a big, steaming bowl of peas. She offered me some peas, and I, in the very last moments of my innocent youth, declined. My mother fixed me with a cold eye as she heaped a huge pile of peas onto my plate. Then came the words that were to haunt me for years.
"You ate them for money," she said. "You can eat them for love."
Oh, despair! Oh, devastation! Now, too late, came the dawning realization that I had unwittingly damned myself to a hell from which there was no escape.
"You ate them for money. You can eat them for love."
What possible argument could I muster against that? There was none. Did I eat the peas? You bet I did. I ate them that day and every other time they were served thereafter. The five dollars were quickly spent. My grandmother passed away a few years later. But the legacy of the peas lived on, as it lives on to this day. If I so much as curl my lip when they are served (because, after all, I still hate the horrid little things), my mother repeats the dreaded words one more time: "You ate them for money," she says. "You can eat them for love."
生命中的五個(gè)球 Five Balls of Life
生命不是一場(chǎng)賽跑, 而是一步一個(gè)腳印的旅程。別為生活找借口,過(guò)去已成歷史,未來(lái)充滿(mǎn)未知,活在當(dāng)下,努力當(dāng)下。
Five Balls of Life
In a university commencement address several years ago, Brian Dyson, CEO of Coca Cola Enterprises, spoke of the relation of work to one’s other commitments:
幾年前,在一所大學(xué)的開(kāi)幕典禮中,可口可樂(lè)的首席執(zhí)行官布賴(lài)恩?戴森講到工作與其他義務(wù)的關(guān)系:
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you’re keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
想象生命是一場(chǎng)不停丟擲五個(gè)球于空中的游戲。這五個(gè)球分別為工作、家庭、健康、朋友和心靈,而且你很努力地?cái)S著這五個(gè)球,不讓它們落地。很快地你會(huì)了解工作是一個(gè)橡皮球。如果你不幸失手落下它,它還是會(huì)彈回來(lái)。
But the other four balls family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. How?
但是家庭、健康、朋友和心靈這四個(gè)球是用玻璃做成的。一旦你失手落下,它們可能會(huì)少了一角,留下無(wú)法挽回的記號(hào)、刻痕、損壞甚至碎落一地。它們將永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)跟以前一樣。你必須了解這個(gè)道理,并且為平衡你的生命而努力。但要怎么才做得到呢?
Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.
別拿自己和他人比較,這只會(huì)降低了你原有的價(jià)值。因?yàn)槲覀兌际仟?dú)一無(wú)二的,因?yàn)槲覀兠恳粋(gè)人都很特別。
Don’t set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
別人認(rèn)為重要的事不一定是你的目標(biāo)。只有你才知道什么最適合你。
Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as they would be your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
不要將貼近你的心的人、事物視為理所當(dāng)然的存在。你必須將他們視為你的生命一般好好地抓牢他們。沒(méi)有他們,生命將失去意義。
Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.
別讓你的生命總在依戀過(guò)去種種或是寄望未來(lái)中逝去。如果你活在每個(gè)當(dāng)下,你就活出了生命中的每一天。
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
當(dāng)你還能給予的時(shí)候別輕言放棄。只要你不放棄,就有無(wú)限延伸的可能。
Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
別害怕承認(rèn)你并非完美。正因如此,我們才得以藉由這脆弱的細(xì)絲緊密地串綁在一起。
Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
別害怕遇到危險(xiǎn)。正因如此,我們才得以藉由這些機(jī)會(huì)學(xué)習(xí)勇敢。
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
別以愛(ài)太難找到作為借口而緊閉你的心扉。最迅速找到愛(ài)的方法就是給予你的愛(ài);最快速失去愛(ài)的方法就是緊緊地守著你的愛(ài)不放;維持愛(ài)的最好方式就是給愛(ài)一雙翅膀。
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
莫要匆忙地度過(guò)你的一生,那匆忙讓你忘了曾經(jīng)到過(guò)哪里,也讓你忘了你要去哪里。
Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
莫忘記,人類(lèi)情感上最大的需要是感恩。
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
莫害怕學(xué)習(xí)。知識(shí)沒(méi)有重量,它是可以隨意攜帶的珍寶。
Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
莫漫不經(jīng)心地蹉跎光陰或口無(wú)遮攔。時(shí)間與言詞兩者都是一放便收不回來(lái)。
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
生命不是一場(chǎng)賽跑, 而是一步一個(gè)腳印的旅程。
Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery and Today is a gift: that’s why we call it ‘The Present’.
過(guò)去已成歷史,未來(lái)充滿(mǎn)未知。今天是份禮物:那就是我們稱(chēng)之為“現(xiàn)在”的原因。
美文賞析:The Scars of Love 愛(ài)的傷疤
傷疤,聽(tīng)起來(lái)總有點(diǎn)令人心寒,但你可曾想過(guò)有些傷口是一些不想放棄你的人造成的。在你掙扎的過(guò)程中,那些愛(ài)你的人為了拉住你,才在你身上留下了的傷疤。
The Scars of Love 愛(ài)的傷疤
Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided togo for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house.
幾年前的一個(gè)炎炎夏日,在美國(guó)佛羅里達(dá)州南部,有個(gè)小男孩為貪圖涼快,決定去自家房子后面一個(gè)形成已久的深水潭中游泳。
In a hurry to dive into the cool water,he ran out the back door,leavingbehind shoes,socks,and shirt as he went. He flew into the water,notrealizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake,an alligator wasswimming toward the shore. His mother - in the house was looking out thewindow - saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utterfear,she ran toward the water,yelling to her son as loudly as she could.
因?yàn)槠炔患按叵胪度氲角鍥龅乃校w快地從后門(mén)跑了出去,邊跑邊脫掉鞋子、襪子和襯衣,把它們隨手拋在了身后。他一頭扎進(jìn)了水里,絲毫沒(méi)有意識(shí)到自己游往潭中心的同時(shí),一只美洲鱷也正在朝岸邊游來(lái)。小男孩的母親當(dāng)時(shí)在屋子里透過(guò)窗子向外看著,發(fā)現(xiàn)那只美洲鱷正向她的孩子步步逼近。她極度驚恐起來(lái),一邊迅速奔向水潭,一邊聲嘶力竭地朝自己的孩子呼喊著。
Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a return to swimto his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her,the alligatorreached him.
聽(tīng)到她的呼喊,小男孩才猛然意識(shí)到了危險(xiǎn),立即掉頭向岸邊的母親游去?蛇@時(shí)已經(jīng)無(wú)濟(jì)于事。他的手勉強(qiáng)剛夠到他的母親,鱷魚(yú)也已經(jīng)接觸到了他。
From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as thealligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war betweenthe two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the motherwas much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard herscreams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.
母親在岸上拼命地拽緊兒子的手臂,而此時(shí)美洲鱷也死死地咬住孩子的腿不放。為了爭(zhēng)奪小男孩,母親和鱷魚(yú)之間儼然展開(kāi)了一場(chǎng)讓人難以置信的拔河較量。美洲鱷的力氣顯然要比母親強(qiáng)大得多,但是母親挽救兒子的堅(jiān)定信念讓她無(wú)論如何也絕不放手。就在這萬(wàn)分危急的關(guān)頭,一位農(nóng)夫恰巧駕車(chē)經(jīng)過(guò),一聽(tīng)到孩子母親的尖叫便飛速?gòu)目ㄜ?chē)上跳下,瞄準(zhǔn)鱷魚(yú)并開(kāi)槍將其射殺。
Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal and, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
值得慶幸的是,經(jīng)過(guò)在醫(yī)院數(shù)周的搶救治療,小男孩居然存活了下來(lái)。鱷魚(yú)兇殘的襲擊在他的腿上刻下了觸目驚心的傷痕。不僅如此,他的雙臂上也留下了深深的抓痕,那是在生死關(guān)頭母親為了牢牢抓住摯愛(ài)的兒子,以至于手指甲都掐入了兒子的肉中所留下的。
The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy after the trauma, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter. But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mom wouldn't let go.
事后,這位死里逃生的小男孩接受了一位報(bào)社記者的采訪(fǎng)。當(dāng)記者問(wèn)他是否愿意讓大家看看他身上的傷疤時(shí),小男孩挽起了自己的褲腿,腿上深深的疤痕暴露無(wú)遺。緊接著,他滿(mǎn)臉自豪地告訴記者,“大家還是看看我的手臂吧,我的手臂上也有好多傷疤呢。這是媽媽不放開(kāi)我,在救我的時(shí)候留下的!
You and I can identify with that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from an alligator, or anything quite so dramatic. But, the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret.
看了這個(gè)小男孩的故事后,人們都能感同身受。其實(shí)我們每個(gè)人身上都有傷疤。只不過(guò)并不是被鱷魚(yú)咬的,或任何如此戲劇性事件所造成,而是過(guò)往的痛苦經(jīng)歷所留下的。那些傷疤是如此難看,讓人深感懊悔。
But, some wounds, my friend, are because God has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle, He's been there holding on to you.
但是,我的朋友,你可曾想過(guò)有些傷口是一些不想放棄你的人造成的。在你掙扎的過(guò)程中,那些愛(ài)你的人為了拉住你,才在你身上留下了這些傷疤。
Holding the hands of time 牽著時(shí)光的手
有人說(shuō),一旦開(kāi)始喜歡回憶,那人便老去了。你覺(jué)得呢?! 時(shí)光如流水,別把太多的時(shí)間用在回憶過(guò)去,牽著時(shí)光的手,一起勇敢前進(jìn)吧,因?yàn)槁吩谇胺剑?/p>
Holding the hands of time
牽著時(shí)光的手
Blow-off vision of the rain, so that you are left with a brilliant rainbow.Shuttle time in my fingers, without any regrets, open stemmed bloom ripples. Blunt rolling thick liquid eternal, but you and I, were dispersed in which period of Acacia leaves.
吹斷目光的雨,讓虹的光輝帶你離去。時(shí)光穿梭在我指間,無(wú)悔地綻放開(kāi)朵朵漣漪。鈍厚的流質(zhì)綿延永恒,而你我,被沖散在其中,相思無(wú)絕期。
Inexplicable always feel like the time within the next few precious memories will be stripped from me, more than once dreamed that his standing in a dark empty space, only one track at the foot stretch into thedistance, such as the long past your time and ultimately disappear In myfield of vision at the end.
總是會(huì)莫名地感到時(shí)間在抽絲剝繭般的將寶貴的回憶從我身上剝離,不止一次夢(mèng)見(jiàn)自己站在一片空曠黑暗的空間里,腳下只有一條鐵軌伸向遠(yuǎn)方,冗長(zhǎng)如過(guò)往的光陰,最終消失在我的視野盡頭。
I am afraid to lose, I fear this time, and I love it but memories. I could not forget the sweat on the pitch with the sway of the brothers, forget accompany me cry close friend, and forget the bright Star of that everynight, and those words have touched me deeply.
我害怕失去,我對(duì)時(shí)間如此的恐懼,而我卻又那么的`熱愛(ài)回憶。我忘不了球場(chǎng)上一起揮灑汗水的兄弟,忘不了陪我一起哭泣的知己,忘不了那一夜夜璀璨的星空,和那些令我感動(dòng)至今的話(huà)語(yǔ)。
Those people, those things, such as bursts of light rain in the lake left ring Watermark four dispersed to each other to melt each other's impact; if the horizon is still experiencing Qianwanyinian quiet shining star, notvery bright, but clearly made . - They do not know how much to spend withme during the day bright and silent night.
那些人,那些事,如細(xì)雨在湖面留下的陣陣環(huán)型水紋四散開(kāi)來(lái)彼此消融,彼此撞擊;如經(jīng)歷千萬(wàn)億年仍在天邊寂靜閃光的星,不甚明亮,卻又清晰無(wú)比。——它們陪我度過(guò)不知多少明媚的白天與沉默的夜。
In my memory, the third year is not gray, because I remember thoseblessings are not what love is bearing fruit, I still remember holding alot of my friends and I hope to see sunrise and sunset, finally it isyellow everywhere.
在我的記憶中,高三不是灰色的,因?yàn)槲矣浀媚切┎槐蛔85膼?ài)情是怎樣的開(kāi)花結(jié)果,還記得我與朋友抱著一大堆的希望看日出日落,最后卻是黃花遍地。
Youth is the eye lotus spring, third year is that this eye expansion of bubbling spring season. I, however, a strong smell in the bubble years of the Problem taste. I do not exclude these, but too much pressure to do away much fun. Unfortunately, after the college entrance examination, even the pressure would become the memories, be my third year living memory of the dead evidence. In the time before we are so powerless, the only left on just the eye springs, and we have no regrets of the oath, I hope day after day, year after year, when I re-turn to this page , people still.
青春是眼忘憂(yōu)泉,高三是這眼泉水膨脹冒泡的季節(jié)。而我卻在泡泡里嗅到了濃厚的習(xí)題的味道。我并不是排斥這些,但過(guò)大的壓力確實(shí)帶走了不多的樂(lè)趣。只可惜,高考過(guò)后,連壓力也會(huì)成為回憶,成為我緬懷逝去的高三生活的證據(jù)。在時(shí)間面前我們是如此的無(wú)力,唯一能留下的,就只是那眼泉水和我們?cè)?jīng)無(wú)悔的誓言,但愿日復(fù)一日,年復(fù)一年,當(dāng)我重新翻到這一頁(yè)時(shí),人心依舊。
I have seen one another chilling words: Some people say that once you start like the memories of those people will get old. I only admit mature, do not believe they have been growing old. My friends are growing up day by day, and was young and the mature, how can I not had time to grow on the outline of the first to hoary?
曾經(jīng)看過(guò)一句另我毛骨悚然的話(huà):有人說(shuō),一旦開(kāi)始喜歡回憶,那人便老去了。我只承認(rèn)自己的成熟,不相信自己已經(jīng)老去。我的朋友們正在一天天地長(zhǎng)大,成熟并且風(fēng)華正茂著,我怎么可以沒(méi)來(lái)得及成長(zhǎng)就率先蒼老了輪廓?
"Heaven Rain in green and so on, and I am waiting for you, the moonlight was recovered, the faint opened the outcome." Jay melancholy voice has been completely different from the business for the time Sentimental, Bard will be the years the pace of a camel inscribed into the blue and white porcelain in that respect.
“天青色等煙雨,而我在等你,月色被打撈起,暈開(kāi)了結(jié)局。”杰倫憂(yōu)郁的嗓音已經(jīng)完全不同與剛出道時(shí)的青澀,吟游詩(shī)人般地將歲月的腳步鐫刻進(jìn)那一尊青花瓷器。
Our future? Friends ah, I will time the other end, waiting for you.

美文賞析:The Importance of Being Silly 難得糊涂
糊涂被人認(rèn)為沒(méi)主見(jiàn),不糊涂被人覺(jué)得難以相處——‘難得糊涂’在于糊涂的時(shí)機(jī),什么時(shí)候糊涂取決于你不糊涂的程度。世界是多彩的,每個(gè)人都有屬于自己的顏色。為什么一直都要標(biāo)榜著最聰明的自己呢?人生難得糊涂哦~給心靈一個(gè)歇腳的理由吧!
The Importance of Being Silly 難得糊涂
We all, at one time or another, have pretended to be a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favorite song. Most of us have done this in the privacy of our own room when we were kids and as adults, in the privacy of our homes. Me? I love to do that when I drive! I turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along too and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the rhythm. Most of the time, I do this on my way to work.
我們每個(gè)人,在不同時(shí)期,都曾經(jīng)像一個(gè)搖滾歌星那樣,伴著我們最?lèi)?ài)的那首歌又唱又跳.很多人在小時(shí)候,甚至是已長(zhǎng)大成人,都曾在我們自己房間和家里類(lèi)似的隱秘空間里這樣過(guò)。我呢?我喜歡在開(kāi)車(chē)的時(shí)候這樣!打開(kāi)收音機(jī),找一首會(huì)唱的歌,很快我就會(huì)張開(kāi)雙臂,隨著節(jié)奏起舞。大部分時(shí)候,我在上班的路上這么做。
Yes, that is true. I will be in my nice work clothes, jamming while driving or stopped at a traffic light. I get weird looks from some people and others laugh. Personally, I love to get lost in the rhythm of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!
是的,那是真的。我會(huì)穿上我漂亮的工作服,在堵車(chē)和遇到交通燈時(shí),有人就會(huì)用奇怪的眼神看著我,或者笑我。對(duì)我個(gè)人而言,我喜歡沉浸在一首歌的節(jié)奏中,由此我愿和你們分享:為人糊涂貴在何處。
The definition for the word silly, according to the dictionary is: stupid, foolish and nonsensical. I know many people do not want to look foolish. So they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish!
糊涂一詞在字典中的定義是:愚蠢的,傻,荒謬的。我知道很多人都不想被人看作愚笨。所以他們?cè)谏钪惺冀K一臉嚴(yán)肅,而這在本質(zhì)上才是真正的愚笨。
No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect. I don’t care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal, how rich, and so on… No one is perfect! So why pretend to be something you are not?
人無(wú)完人,我重申一次:沒(méi)有人是完美的。我不在乎一個(gè)人學(xué)識(shí)多深,身材多好,外表多美,思想多淺薄,生活多儉樸,多富有,等等……人無(wú)完人!那么,為什么要偽裝成我們實(shí)際上本不是的呢?
Life is so short… You never know when this beautiful journey will be over, so why waste a single second on being so full of rigidity? Here is a quote by Souza, that I think says it all and is a great recipe for life:
人生何其短暫……你不會(huì)知道這美好的征程何時(shí)會(huì)結(jié)束,那么,為什么要浪費(fèi)一分一秒,讓自己變得棱角分明?這里引用索薩的話(huà),我覺(jué)得她一語(yǔ)中的,是人生的一大秘方:
“Dance as though no one is watching you, Love as though you have never been hurt before, Sing as though no one can hear you, Live as though heaven is on earth.”
跳舞吧,就像沒(méi)有人欣賞一樣,
去愛(ài)吧,就像沒(méi)有受到傷害一樣,
唱歌吧,就像沒(méi)有人傾聽(tīng)一樣,
生活吧,就像今天是最后一天一樣。
When we were kids, we had no idea of what limitations were and we had no care in the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others. However, as we grew up, we lost that childlike innocence.
當(dāng)我們還是孩子,我們天不怕,地不怕,無(wú)憂(yōu)無(wú)慮,所以我們可以不在乎自己再別人眼中的形象去做事情。然而,當(dāng)我們長(zhǎng)大,我們失去了那種天真爛漫。
So don’t lose the child that still lives within you. The next time you feel down, go turn on your favorite song, and sing and dance along like there is no tomorrow. Or watch something that makes you laugh. Laughter is the best medicine to whatever ails you and nothing is better than laughing so hard that your tummy hurts. Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn’t want to feel good?
所以,不要丟失你心中那個(gè)小孩。下次你感到沮喪時(shí),去打開(kāi)你最?lèi)?ài)的那首歌吧,隨之歌唱起舞,就像沒(méi)有明天一樣;蛘呖袋c(diǎn)能讓你笑的東西。笑聲是除去任何煩惱良方,沒(méi)有什么比笑到肚子疼更好的事了。相信我,你會(huì)好受很多,誰(shuí)又不想讓自己好受呢?
美文閱讀:Salty Coffee 咸咖啡
默默付出是偉大的,為了自己的真愛(ài),學(xué)著接受,學(xué)著改變 —— 愛(ài)需要無(wú)私的付出。
Salty Coffee 咸咖啡
He met her at a party. She was outstanding; many guys were after her, but nobody paid any attention to him. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised. So as not to appear rude, she went along.
他在一次晚會(huì)上遇見(jiàn)了她。她很迷人,有很多男孩子追求,但是卻沒(méi)有任何人注意到他。晚會(huì)結(jié)束后,他請(qǐng)她出去喝咖啡,這讓她很吃驚。出于禮貌,她去了。
As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, "Could you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee."
他們坐在一家幽雅的咖啡店里。他緊張得說(shuō)不出話(huà)來(lái),而她也感到很拘束。突然,他叫來(lái)服務(wù)生,說(shuō)道:“給我在咖啡里加點(diǎn)鹽,好嗎?”
They stared at him. He turned red, but when the salt came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, "Why salt with coffee?" He explained, "When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea ... I could feel its taste salty, like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there."
她和服務(wù)生都看著他。他臉紅了,鹽端上來(lái)了,他往咖啡里放了一些,喝了起來(lái)。她好奇地問(wèn):“為什么在咖啡里放鹽呢?”他解釋說(shuō):“小時(shí)候,我住在海邊,喜歡在那里玩耍……海水是咸的,就像這杯咸咖啡。每次喝咖啡時(shí),我就想起了童年和家鄉(xiāng)。我懷念這種味道,想念那里的父母親!
She was deeply touched. A man who can admit that he's homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible.
她被深深地感動(dòng)了。一個(gè)有思鄉(xiāng)情結(jié)的男人一定很愛(ài)家,很關(guān)心家人。他一定是值得信賴(lài)的。
She talked too, about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was the start to their love story.
于是,她也談起了遙遠(yuǎn)的家鄉(xiāng),她的童年和家人。他們的愛(ài)情故事就這樣拉開(kāi)了帷幕。
They continued to date. She found that he met all her requirements. He was tolerant, kind, warm and careful. And to think she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee!
之后,他們常常約會(huì)。她發(fā)現(xiàn)他寬容、善良、熱情而細(xì)心,這些正符合她的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。她想,若不是那杯咸咖啡,她或許就錯(cuò)過(guò)了他。
So they married and lived happily together. And every time she made coffee for him, she put in some salt, the way he liked it.
最后,他們結(jié)婚了,幸福地生活在一起。每每給他沖咖啡時(shí),她總會(huì)放些鹽,因?yàn)樗矚g喝咸咖啡。
After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said:
40年后,他去世了,留了一封信給她,信中的內(nèi)容是這樣的:
My dearest, please forgive my life-long lie. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous I asked for salt instead of sugar.
親愛(ài)的,請(qǐng)?jiān)徫摇幸粋(gè)謊言,我隱瞞了你整整一生。還記得我們的第一次約會(huì)嗎?我很緊張,原想要糖,卻說(shuō)成了鹽。
It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I just went ahead. I never thought that we would hit it off. Many times, I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid that it would ruin everything.
再改過(guò)來(lái)很難,我只好將錯(cuò)就錯(cuò)。我從未想過(guò)要喝咸咖啡。許多次,我都想告訴你真相,但又擔(dān)心說(shuō)出來(lái)一切會(huì)化為泡影。
Sweetheart, I don't exactly like salty coffee. But as it mattered so much to you, I've learnt to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. If I could live a second time, I hope we can be together again, even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.
親愛(ài)的,我并不喜歡喝咸咖啡,但你很在乎這個(gè),我已經(jīng)學(xué)著接受它了。與你在一起是我一生最大的幸福。倘若我能重生,我希望還能和你在一起,即使這意味著余生都要喝咸咖啡,我也心甘情愿。

Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
無(wú)論是60歲還是16歲,你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄滅的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事業(yè)成功的歡樂(lè)與熱情。在你我的.心底,有一座無(wú)線(xiàn)電臺(tái),它能在多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間里接收到人間萬(wàn)物傳遞來(lái)的美好、希望、歡樂(lè)、鼓舞和力量的信息,你就會(huì)年輕多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.
人的生命應(yīng)當(dāng)像河流,開(kāi)始是涓涓細(xì)流,受兩岸的限制而十分狹窄,爾后奔騰咆哮,翻過(guò)危巖,飛越瀑布,河面漸漸開(kāi)闊,河岸也隨之向兩邊隱去,最后水流平緩,森森無(wú)際,匯入大海之中,個(gè)人就這樣毫無(wú)痛苦地消失了。
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春意味著戰(zhàn)勝懦弱的那股大丈夫氣概和擯棄安逸的那種冒險(xiǎn)精神。往往一個(gè)60歲的老者比一個(gè)20歲的青年更多一點(diǎn)這種勁頭。人老不僅僅是歲月流逝所致,更主要的是不思進(jìn)取的結(jié)果。
Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
光陰可以在顏面上留下印記,而熱情之火的熄滅則在心靈上刻下皺紋。煩惱、恐懼、缺乏自信會(huì)扭曲人的靈魂,并將青春化為灰燼。
英語(yǔ)勵(lì)志短文二:
《You Have Only One Life》
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real! Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;be what you want to be,because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,enough trials to make you strong,enough sorrow to keep you human,enough hope to make you happy? Always put yourself in others’shoes.If you feel that it hurts you,it probably hurts the other person, too.
The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.Happiness lies for those who cry,those who hurt, those who have searched,and those who have tried,for only they can appreciate the importance of people
who have touched their lives.Love begins with a smile,grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can’t go on well in lifeuntil you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
When you were born,you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.Live your life so that when you die,you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
Please send this message to those people who mean something to you,to those who have touched your life in one way or another,to those who make you smile when you really need it,to those that make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down,to those who you want to let them know that you appreciate their friendship.And if you don’t, don’t worry,nothing bad will happen to you,you will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone’s day with this message.

The virus, believed dead, was located in six freeze-dried and sealed vials, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
It is said to be the first time unaccounted-for smallpox has been discovered in the US.
The disease was officially declared eradicated in the 1980s.
The vials appear to date from the 1950s. Upon discovery, the vials were immediately secured in a CDC-registered select agent containment laboratory in Bethesda, [Maryland], according to a CDC statement.
There is no evidence that any of the vials labelled variola has been breached, and onsite biosafety personnel have not identified any infectious exposure risk to lab workers or the public, the statement added.
Government agencies were notified of the discovery on 1 July, after National Institutes of Health employees discovered the vials labelled variola , also known as smallpox.
The vials were located in an unused area of a storage room in a Food and Drug Administration laboratory on an NIH campus in Bethesda.

Before the Rio Olympic Games came, the media reported some players that caught people’s attention. There is no doubt that these players have beautiful faces, which helps them win the attention. But the more important thing is that they are not only talented, but also work very hard.
The chance to take part in the Olympic Games means the players are excellent and they have stood out in their countries. If they win the golden medal in the Olympic Games, they will gain great fame and money around the world. The beautiful face brings players the market potential, which means they will be famous easily, but on the condition that they are the top players. Mariah Sharapova is the best example. She is beautiful and top tennis player all the time. So ability decides our position on the society.

自制Self-Control
Self-control is essential to happiness and success.
自制對(duì)幸福與成功來(lái)說(shuō)是不可缺少的。
It is the master of all the virtues1, and has its root in self-respect. Let a man yield to his impulses and passions, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.
它主宰著一切美德,并植根于自尊之中。假若一個(gè)人屈服于沖動(dòng)或是感情用事,那么,從那一刻起他便放棄了道德自由。
It is the self-discipline of a man that enables him to go after success. Many of the great characters in history have shown this valuable quality. In ordinary life the application is the same. He who would lead must first command himself. The time of test is when everybody is excited or angry, duanwenw.com and then the well-balanced mind comes to the front.
自律促使人們?nèi)プ非蟪晒。歷史上的許多偉人都表現(xiàn)出了這種可貴品質(zhì)。自律同樣適用于日常生活。一個(gè)人要想成為領(lǐng)導(dǎo),他首先必須能掌控自我。當(dāng)一個(gè)人激動(dòng)或是生氣的時(shí)候,考驗(yàn)的時(shí)刻便到了,這時(shí)首先應(yīng)想到保持心氣平和。
There is a very special demand for the cultivation of this quality at the present time. Young men who rush into business without education or training will do poor work. Endurance is a much better test of character than the act of heroism.
當(dāng)前,這種特質(zhì)的培養(yǎng)顯得尤為必要。沒(méi)有受過(guò)良好教育或訓(xùn)練的.年輕人匆匆步入商界將會(huì)一事無(wú)成。忍耐比逞英雄更能考驗(yàn)一個(gè)人的品質(zhì)。
A fair amount of self-examination is good. Self-knowledge is the key to self-control. Too much self-examination leads to morbidness; too little can lead to careless action. There are two things that will surely strengthen our self-control. One is attention to conscience5; the other is a spirit of good will. duanwenw.com The man who would succeed in any great undertaking must hold all his capabilities under perfect control; he must be disciplined to achieve greatness.
適度的自我檢討是可取的。自知之明對(duì)自制而言極為關(guān)鍵。過(guò)度的自我檢討會(huì)導(dǎo)致病態(tài);而檢討不足則會(huì)導(dǎo)致行事草率。不過(guò),有兩樣?xùn)|西肯定能增強(qiáng)我們的自制力。其一是注重良知,其二是心懷善意。一個(gè)人如果要想取得重大成功,他就必須妥善掌控自己的種植拍,他必須靠不斷約束自我來(lái)走向成功。

Hi, welcome to Faith Radio Online-Simply to Relax, I’m Faith. I realized a few years ago why we all need to climb a mountain every now and then. When we climb mountains, face challenges, hurdle1 obstacles and learn from difficult situations we remind ourselves that we have the strength, power and energy to overcome life's challenges. At first even a little mountain may seem like a big insurmountable mountain. But when you step back and climb it you realize, "I can do this." You realize within you is a source of strength, power and energy that you didn't know you had. After all, the mountain, no matter how big it is, is no match for your focused energy and desire to climb it. Mountains are meant to be climbed. Wounds are meant to be healed and problems are meant to become learning experiences. They all serve a purpose. They make us stronger mentally, emotionally and spiritually. So, here we are, in front of us is that mountain, don’t hesitate, just go ahead and climb it, climb that mountain.

These days, people who do manual work often receive far more money than clerks who work in offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as' white collar workers' for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of becoming white collar workers. This can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman for the Ellesmere Corporation.
When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. He simply told her that he worked for the Corporation. Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit. He then changed into overalls (n.工作服) and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for over two years and his fellow dustmen kept his secret. Alf's wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just found another job. He will soon be working in an office as a junior clerk. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr. Bloggs', not 'Alf'.
如今,從事體力勞動(dòng)的人的收入一般要比坐辦公室的人高出許多。坐辦公室的之所以常常被稱(chēng)作"白領(lǐng)工人",就是因?yàn)樗麄兺ǔJ谴┲差I(lǐng)白襯衫,系著領(lǐng)帶去上班。許多人常常情愿放棄較高的薪水以換取做白領(lǐng)工人的殊榮,此乃人之常情。而這常常會(huì)引起種種奇怪的現(xiàn)象,在埃爾斯米爾公司當(dāng)清潔工的艾爾弗雷德.布洛斯就是一個(gè)例子。
艾爾弗結(jié)婚時(shí),感到非常難為情,而沒(méi)有將自己的職業(yè)告訴妻子。他只說(shuō)在埃爾斯米爾公司上班。每天早晨,他穿上一身漂亮的'黑色西裝離家上班,然后換上工作服,當(dāng)8個(gè)小時(shí)清潔工。晚上回家前,他洗個(gè)淋浴,重新?lián)Q上那身黑色西服。兩年多以來(lái),艾爾弗一直這樣,他的同事也為他保守秘密。艾爾弗的妻子一直不知道她嫁給了一個(gè)清潔工,而且她永遠(yuǎn)也不會(huì)知道了,因?yàn)榘瑺柛ヒ颜业叫铰,不久就要坐辦公室里工作了。他將來(lái)掙的錢(qián)只有他現(xiàn)在的一半。不過(guò)他覺(jué)得,地位升高了,損失點(diǎn)兒錢(qián)也值得。從此,艾爾弗可以一天到晚穿西服了。別人將稱(chēng)呼他為"布洛格斯先生",而不再叫他"艾爾弗"了。

About Sea 關(guān)于大海
I live in a small village. I have never seen sea. But I see it many times in the TV. It is very beautiful. In my hometown, the water in the river is a little yellow and the river is small. But the sea is different. In the TV, I can’t see the end of the sea and its water is blue. It is amazing. It is said that is voice and wind of the sea are also very comfortable. My ten years birthday wish is to have a look at sea.
我住在一個(gè)小村莊。我從沒(méi)看過(guò)海。但我在電視上看到過(guò)很多次。很漂亮。在我家鄉(xiāng),河里的水是有點(diǎn)點(diǎn)黃的`。但是大海卻是不一樣的。在電視上,我看不到海的盡頭而且水是藍(lán)色的。真的很神奇。聽(tīng)說(shuō)大海的聲音和海風(fēng)也是很舒服的。我十歲生日的愿望就是去看海。
The Sea 大海
What do you know about the sea? Some people know about it, but others don't. The sea looks beautiful on a fine sunny day, but when there's a strong wind, it's very rough. What else do you know about it?
Of course, the sea is very big. In the world, there is more sea than land. Do you know Hainan Island? It's really very nice. We can see beaches, trees and the sea. We can swim and visit a lot of beautiful places.
When you swim in the sea, you feel that the water is salty.
At last, I tell you about the Dead Sea. Fish can't live in it, because it's dangerous. This sea is too salty.
The sea is nice, but sometimes it's not good.
你是怎么知道大海?有些人不了解它,但其他人沒(méi)有。美麗的大?雌饋(lái)是在一個(gè)陽(yáng)光明媚的一天,但是當(dāng)有一個(gè)強(qiáng)烈的風(fēng),它很粗糙。知道你還做了什么?
當(dāng)然,海是非常大的。在這個(gè)世界上,有更多的海洋資源。你知道海南島嗎?這真的`很漂亮。我們可以看到海灘,樹(shù)和海。我們可以游泳和參觀很多美好的地方。
當(dāng)你在海中游泳,你覺(jué)得這水是咸的。
最后,我告訴你一些關(guān)于死海。魚(yú)不能生活在它,因?yàn)樗俏kU(xiǎn)的。海水是咸的。
海是漂亮的,但有時(shí)是不好的。
WEALTH AND HAPPINESS 富裕 和 幸福
There is no same opinion among people as to the view of wealth. Some people may think that wealth is the most important and powerful thing in life, while some other people believe that there are many things that cannot be bought with wealth.As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter opinion. There’s an old proverb, “Money can cure hunger, but it can’t cure happiness” which simply means wealth can buy us some material things but cannot make us happy and free from sadness or worries.
在人們看來(lái),財(cái)富的觀點(diǎn)是不一樣的。有些人可能認(rèn)為財(cái)富是人生中最重要和最重要的東西,而另一些人則認(rèn)為,有很多東西是無(wú)法用財(cái)富來(lái)購(gòu)買(mǎi)的,而就我而言,我同意后者的.觀點(diǎn)。有一句古老的諺語(yǔ):“錢(qián)能治好,但不能治好幸福”,簡(jiǎn)單地說(shuō),財(cái)富能給我們買(mǎi)點(diǎn)東西,卻不能使我們快樂(lè),不讓悲傷和煩惱。
In fact, happiness, true love, friendship, time, health and so on are the most valuable things in the world and can never ever be bought with money. Those who just try their best to make money can’t realize the true meaning of life and will be the slaves for money. They can’t enjoy happiness, for they have lost everything, time, relatives, love except money. Then, what can money do? No one will share the happy moment with them.So, I think, money is not at all powerful while happiness is more important. If we always have happiness, we’ll never give up the belief to life.
事實(shí)上,幸福,真正的愛(ài)情,友誼,時(shí)間,健康等等都是世界上最有價(jià)值的東西,永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)被金錢(qián)買(mǎi)來(lái)。那些盡自己最大努力賺錢(qián)的人,無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)人生的真正意義,并將成為金錢(qián)的奴隸。他們不能享受幸福,因?yàn)樗麄兪チ艘磺,時(shí)間,親人,愛(ài)除了金錢(qián)。那么,錢(qián)怎么辦?沒(méi)有人會(huì)和他們一起分享快樂(lè)的時(shí)刻,所以,我認(rèn)為,金錢(qián)不是萬(wàn)能的,而幸福更重要。如果我們永遠(yuǎn)擁有幸福,我們就永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)放棄對(duì)生活的信念。
On-line Shopping Carnival 網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物狂歡節(jié)
When it comes to November 11, what’s on your mind? Well, as to the old generations, it’s only an ordinary day; however,the young generations will consider it as the Singles’ Day as well as the on-line shopping carnival. In fact, on November 11th, 20xx, Tmall and Taobao(the biggest Chinese online shopping platform) has sold out more than 35 billion Yuan goods, this data has astonished the media at home and abroad.Apparently, people have more interests on cyber shopping than spend the night with their single friends. Some home media even suggest that November 11thshould be the Chinese on-line shopping carnival.
當(dāng)人們提到11月11日,你想到了什么?對(duì)于老一輩的人來(lái)說(shuō),這一天和平常一樣;然而,對(duì)于年輕人來(lái)說(shuō),這天不僅僅是“光棍節(jié)”,也是網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物狂歡節(jié)。事實(shí)上,在今年的雙11,天貓和淘寶(中國(guó)最大的網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物平臺(tái))賣(mài)出了價(jià)值高達(dá)350多億元的商品,這一數(shù)據(jù)驚呆了國(guó)內(nèi)外的媒體。顯而易見(jiàn),大家對(duì)網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物的`熱情超出了與單身好友共度“光棍”節(jié)的興趣。有些國(guó)內(nèi)的媒體甚至建議每年的11月11日應(yīng)該是中國(guó)的網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物狂歡節(jié)。
In 20xx, Jack Ma, the CEO of Tmall andTaobao, had coined the term “Double Eleven”, aimed to encourage the single people to do something to celebrate their own festival. Instead of datinglovers, people go on-line shopping to relive the loneliness. According to the survey, China had 564 million Internet users at the end of last year and 180 million single people. And the single people are the main force of the China’s spending power. The debut was a great success. Then “11.11” has an unusual meaning, which stands for on-line shopping carnival.
在20xx年,天貓和淘寶的首席執(zhí)行官馬云,創(chuàng)造出了一個(gè)新詞:“雙11”,目的是為了鼓勵(lì)單身朋友去做些與眾不同的事情,以此慶祝他們自己的節(jié)日。沒(méi)有情人約會(huì),那就上網(wǎng)購(gòu)物減輕自己的孤獨(dú)感吧。調(diào)查顯示:去年中國(guó)的網(wǎng)民有五億六千四百萬(wàn)人,其中有一億八千萬(wàn)的單身漢。而這些單身漢正好是網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物的主力軍。于是,“雙11”被賦予了不同的意義,那就是網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物狂歡節(jié)。
Comparing with the traditional shopping,the cyber shopping has more distinguish features, which quite fit the young generations’ taste. People do not need to go outside, just click their mouse, the goods will be home. The best part is you can do it anywhere, anytime. All you need is acredit card. What we can predict in the future is that on-line shopping is not going to fade away, instead, it will boost like the mushrooms after springrains.
和傳統(tǒng)的購(gòu)物相比,網(wǎng)絡(luò)購(gòu)物有著更為明顯的特點(diǎn),這更符合年輕人的口味。人們不需要外出,只需點(diǎn)擊一下鼠標(biāo),商品就會(huì)送到家。最棒的是你可以在任何時(shí)間任何地點(diǎn)進(jìn)行購(gòu)物。你只需一張信用卡。我們可以預(yù)測(cè)到在將來(lái),網(wǎng)購(gòu)不會(huì)淡出我們的生活,它就像雨后春筍,不斷增長(zhǎng)。
