Right Beside You 身边总有你

The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the young woman with the white cane made her way1 carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and then, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, settled in to one. She placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg.
It had been a year since Susan, thirty-four, became blind. As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity. All she had to cling to2 was her husband Mark.
Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he became determined to use every means possible to help his wife.
Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too frightened to get around the city by herself. Mark volunteered to ride the bus with Susan each morning and evening until she got the hang of3 it. And that is exactly what happened.
For two weeks, Mark, military uniform and all, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was and how to adapt to4 her new environment. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat.
Each morning they made the journey together, and Mark would take a taxi back to his office. Although that meant he had to travel through the city and the routine was costly and exhausting, Mark knew it was only a matter of① time before Susan would be able to ride the bus on her own. He believed in her.
Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. Monday morning arrived. Before she left, she embraced her husband tightly. Her eyes filled with tears of gratitude for his loyalty, his patience, and his love. She said good-bye and, for the first time, they went their separate ways. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday... Each day on her own went perfectly, and a wild gaiety5 took hold of Susan. She was doing it! She was going to work all by herself!
On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, “Miss, I sure envy you.” Curious, Susan asked the driver why.
“You know, every morning for the past week, a fine looking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute6 and walks away. You are one lucky lady,” the bus driver said.
Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. She was so lucky for he had given her a gift more powerful than sight, a gift she didn't need to see to believe—the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.

当这个手持白杖的年轻女子小心翼翼地上车时，车上的乘客都向她投去怜悯的目光。她向司机付了车费之后，双手摸索着座位，然后坐好，把公文包放在膝盖上，手杖靠着腿。
34岁的苏珊失明已有一年了。一起医疗事故夺去了她的视力，她顿时陷入黑暗之中，内心充满愤怒、沮丧，还有顾影自怜，而她可以依靠的只有她的丈夫马克了。
马克是名空军军官，他深爱着苏珊。苏珊失明的头些日子，他眼睁睁地看着妻子陷入绝望，心里打定主意，要尽一切办法帮助她。
苏珊终于愿意重返工作岗位了。可她怎么去上班呢？以前都是乘公交车去的，但是她现在很害怕，自己一个人不敢在城里转。于是马克自告奋勇早晚坐公车接送，直到她可以一个人应付。这就是事情的经过。
整整两周，马克每天都一身戎装，陪着苏珊一起上下班，教她怎么凭借其他感官，尤其是听觉，判断她所处的位置，以及如何适应新的环境。他还帮她与司机交好，这样司机能照顾她，并给她留个座位。
每天早上，他们都一起同行，然后马克再乘出租车回去上班。尽管马克得穿过整座城市，而且疲惫不堪，又花费不菲，但是他坚信苏珊一定能独立乘车的，只是时间问题。
最后，苏珊决定自己独自坐车上班。星期一上午，临行前，她紧紧地拥抱着自己的丈夫，眼里蓄满了感激的泪水，感谢他的忠诚，他的耐心，还有他的爱。她向他道了别，他们第一次朝着不同的方向走去。周一、周二、周三、周四……每天她的独行之旅都很顺利，苏珊感到一阵狂喜。她成功了！她真的能一个人去上班了！
周五早上，苏珊照常乘公共汽车去上班。就要下车了，司机说：“小姐，我真羡慕你啊。”苏珊感到很奇怪，便问司机为什么。
“是这样的，上星期，每天早上都有一个仪表堂堂穿着军装的男士一直站在拐弯处看着你下车，看着你安全地穿过街道，又看着你走进办公楼，他向你飞一个吻，冲你行个礼，然后才动身离去。你真是个幸运的姑娘啊！” 司机说。
苏珊的脸上流下幸福的泪水。她是幸运的，因为马克给了她比视力更珍贵的礼物，一份她不需要看就能体会到的礼物——这就是爱的礼物，它能给黑暗带来光明。

【美文欣赏】The Old Man and the Sea

The Old Man and the Sea
老人与海

The sun rose thinly from the sea and the old man could see the other boats, low on the water and well in toward the shore, spread out across the current.Then the sun was brighter and the glare came on the water and then, as it rose clear, the flat sea sent it back at his eyes so that it hurt sharply and he rowed without looking into it.

淡淡的太阳从海上升起，老人看见其他船只低低地挨着水面，朝海岸漂去，向海浪垂直的方向分散开。接着，太阳更明亮了，刺眼的强光照在水面上。当太阳从地平线上完全升起，平坦的海面把阳光反射到他眼睛里，使他的眼睛剧烈地刺痛，所以他划着船，不朝太阳看。

He looked down into the water and watched the lines that went straight down into the dark of the water. He kept them straighter than anyone did, so that at each level in the darkness of the stream there would be a t waiting exactly where he wished it to be for any fish that swam there. Others let them drift with the current and sometimes they were at sixty fathoms when the fishermen thought they were at a hundred.

他俯视水中，注视着那几根一直垂到漆黑的深水里的钓索。他把钓索垂得比任何人更直，这样，在黑暗的湾流深处的几个不同的深度，都会有一个鱼饵刚好在他所指望的地方等待着游动的鱼来觅食。别的渔夫让钓索顺水漂流，有时钓索在六十英寻的深处，他们却自以为在一百英寻的深处呢。

But, he thought, I keep them with precision. Only I have no luck any more. But who knows?Maybe today. Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.

但是，他想，我总是把它们放在精确的地方。只是我没有运气，可谁知道呢？也许今天就有好运。每天都是新的一天。走运当然更好，但我宁愿做得精确。那么运气来的时候，你就准备好了。

The sun was two hours higher now and it did not hurt his eyes so much to look into the east.There were only three boats in sight now and they showed very low and far inshore.

两个小时过去了，太阳升得更高了，朝东望去，眼睛没有刺痛得那么厉害。现在只能看见三艘船，它们显得很低，靠近海岸。

All my life the early sun has hurt my eyes, he thought. Yet they are still good. In the evening I can look straight into it without getting the blackness. It has more force in the evening too. But in the morning it is painful.

这一辈子，初升的太阳总是刺痛我的眼睛，他心想。然而，眼睛仍然是好好的。傍晚时分，我能直视它，不会有眼前发黑的感觉。阳光在傍晚要更强烈些，不过在早上它叫人感到痛苦。

Just then he saw a man-of-war bird with his long black wings circling in the sky ahead of him.He made a quick drop, slanting down on his back-swept wings, and then circled again.

就在这时，他看见一只军舰鸟，有着黑色的长翅膀，在他前方的天空中盘旋。它斜着后掠的双翅迅速俯冲下来，然后又盘旋起来。

"He's got something," the old man said aloud. "He's not just looking."

"他逮到东西了，"老人大声说，"他不只是看看。"

He rowed slowly and steadily toward where the bird was circling. He did not hurry and he kept his lines straight up and down. But he crowded the current a little so that he was still fishing correctly though faster than he would have fished if he was not trying to use the bird.

他缓慢而坚定地划向鸟儿盘旋的地方。他并不匆忙，使钓索保持着上下垂直的位置。不过他朝海流靠近了一点，这样他依然在用正确的方式捕鱼，尽管他的速度要比不打算利用鸟儿来引路时来得快。

The bird went higher in the air and circled again, his wings motionless. Then he dove suddenly and the old man saw flying fish spurt out of the water and sail desperately over the surface.

鸟儿在空中飞得更高了，再次盘旋起来，翅膀纹丝不动。然后它猛然俯冲下来，老人看见飞鱼跃出水面，拼命地在海面上掠过。

"Dolphin," the old man said aloud. "Big dolphin."

"海豚，"老人大声说道' "大海豚。"

He shipped his oars and brought a small line from under the bow. It had a wire leader and a medium-sized hook and he ted it with one of the sardines. He let it go over the side and then made it fast to a ring bolt in the stern. Then he ted another line and left it coiled in the shade of the bow. He went back to rowing and to watching the long-winged black bird who was working, now, low over the water.

他取下桨，从船头下面拿出一根细钓丝。钓丝上系着铁丝导线和一只中号钓钩，他把一条沙丁鱼挂在上面，顺着船舷放下水，然后将丝紧紧地系在船尾一只带环螺栓上。接着他在另一根线上安上鱼饵，把它盘绕着搁置在船头的阴影里。他又划起船，看着长翅黑鸟，它此刻正在水面上低飞。

As he watched the bird dipped again slanting his wings for the dive and then swinging them wildly and ineffectually as he followed the flying fish. The old man could see the slight bulge in the water that the big dolphin raised as they followed the escaping fish. The dolphin were cutting through the water below the flight of the fish and would be in the water, driving at speed, when the fish dropped. It is a big school of dolphin, he thought. They are widespread and the flying fish have little chance. The bird has no chance. The flying fish are too big for him and they go too fast.

他正看着，鸟儿又斜起翅膀准备俯冲，它向下冲来，然后又猛烈地扇动着双翼，追踪飞鱼，但是没有成效。老人看见大海豚在追赶飞鱼时海面微微隆起的水浪。海豚在飞掠的鱼下面破水而行，等鱼一落下，海豚就会飞速潜人水中。这群海豚真大呀！他想。它们分散开去，飞鱼很少有机会逃脱。军舰鸟也没有机会，飞鱼对它来说太大了，并且它们速度太快。

He watched the flying fish burst out again and again and the ineffectual movements of the bird. That school has gotten away from me, he thought. They are moving out too fast and too far. But perhaps I will pick up a stray and perhaps my big fish is around them. My big fish must be somewhere.

他看着飞鱼一次次地跃出水面，鸟儿的行为也一无所获。那群海豚要远离我了，他想着。它们动作太快，游得太远。但是，也许我会逮住一条掉队的，也许我的大鱼就在它们周围。我的大鱼一定在某个地方。

1.The Rainy Day(雨天)
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My thought still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
(天冷、阴暗、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不停；
藤还攀附着颓垣残壁，
每来一阵狂风，枯叶附落纷纷，
天真是阴暗而沉闷。
我的生活寒冷、阴郁、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不停；
我的思想还纠缠着消逝的往事，
大风里，我的青春希望相继熄灭，
天真是阴暗而沉闷。
安静吧，忧伤的心！别再悔恨；
乌云后面太阳依然辉煌灿烂；
你的命运和大家的一样，
每个人一生都得逢上阴雨，
有些日子必然阴暗而沉闷。 )

2.The Life I Desired(我所追求的生活)
That must be the story of innumerable couples, and the pattern of life it offers has a homely grace. It reminds you of a placid rivulet, meandering smoothly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees, till at last it falls into the vasty sea; but the sea is so calm, so silent, so indifferent, that you are troubled suddenly by a vague uneasiness. Perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature, strong in me even in those days, that I felt in such an existence, the share of the great majority, something amiss. I recognized its social value. I saw its ordered happiness, but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course. There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was desire to live more dangerously. I was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous shoals if I could only have change--change and the excitement of unforeseen.
(这一定是世间无数对夫妻的生活写照，这种生活模式给人一种天伦之美。它使人想起一条平静的河流，蜿蜒畅流过绿茵茵的草场，浓荫遮蔽，最后注入烟波浩淼的汪洋大海；但是大海太过平静，太过沉默，太过不动声色，你会突然感到莫名的不安。也许这只是我自己的一种怪诞的想法，在那样的年代，这想法对我影响很深：我觉得这像大多数人一样的生活，似乎欠缺了一点儿什么。我承认这种生活有社会价值，我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福，但我血液里的冲动却渴望一种更桀骜不驯的旅程。这样的安逸中好像有一种叫我惊惧不安的东西。我的心渴望一种更加惊险的生活。只要生活中还能有变迁－－以及不可知的刺激，我愿意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖，奔赴暗礁满布的海滩。)

3.Friends(朋友)
A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart. There's always going to be people that hurt you, so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
真正的朋友是一个可以援手帮助并感动你心扉的人。 别人常常伤害你，所以你该继续付出信任，并小心挑选你下次信任的人。
Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you. 在你想了解别人也想让别人了解你之前，先完善并了解自己。
Remember: Whatever happens, happens for a reason. 要记住：任何事情的发生都有因有起。
How many people actually have 8 true friends? Hardly anyone I know. But some of us have all-right friends and good friends. 有多少人可以拥有八个真正的朋友？就我所知少之又少。但我们会有泛泛之交和好友。

4.Virtue(美德)
Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright!
The bridal of the earth and sky--
The dew shall weep thy fall tonight;
For thou must die.
Sweet rose, whose hue angry and brave,
Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye,
Thy root is ever in its grave,
And thou must die.
Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses,
A box where sweets compacted lie,
My music shows ye have your closes,
And all must die.
Only a sweet and virtuous soul,
Like season'd timber, never gives;
But though the whole world turn to coal,
Then chiefly lives.
甜美的白昼，如此凉爽、安宁、明媚！
天地间完美的匹配－－
今宵的露珠儿将为你的消逝而落泪；
因为你必须离去。
美丽的玫瑰，色泽红润艳丽，
令匆匆而过的人拭目而视，
你的根永远扎在坟墓里，
而你必须消逝。
美妙的春天，充满了美好的日子和芳香的玫瑰，
如一只芬芳满溢的盒子，
我的音乐表明你们也有终止，
万物都得消逝。
唯有美好而正直的心灵，
犹如干燥备用的木料，永不走样；
纵然整个世界变为灰烬，
它依然流光溢彩。

5.Have Faith and Expect the Best(心怀信念，并追求完美)
Faith begins by believing in your heart that what is right has a chance. 信念始于内心对机缘深信不疑。
Faith is knowing in your heart that good can overcome evil, that the sun can shine in a rainstrom. 信念是心底深信善良能战胜邪恶，太阳会在暴风雨中升起。
Faith is peaceful and comforting, because it comes from within where no one can invade your private dreams. 信念平静而给人慰藉，它源于心灵深处，在那里，无人能窥探只属于你的秘密。
Faith is not something you can demand or command; it is a result of commitment to belief. 信念不可强求或控制，它是对信仰忠贞不渝的自然流露。
Faith is believing in something you can't see or hear, something deep inside that only you understand and only you control. 信念是只有你能理解和驾驭的内心所想，它无法捉摸，但你要笃信不疑。
Faith is trusting in yourself enough to know that no matter how things turn out, you will make the best of them. 信念就是坚信自己无论如何总能将糟糕的局面扭转，展现事态的最好一面。

YOUTH

By Samuel Ullman 塞缪尔·厄尔曼

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not amatter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of thewill, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is thefreshness of the deep springs of life.

Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by anumber of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the springback to st.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure ofwonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy ofthe game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is awireless
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.

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20,but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, thereis hope you may die young at 80.

Transforming Obstacles into Benefits

By Richard Stewart,Los Angeles, U.S.A. (Originally in English)
美国洛杉矶 理查德．史都华德（原文为英文）

A group of frogs was traveling through the woods and two of themfell into a deep pit. Immediately, all the other frogs in the groupgathered around the pit and watched as the imprisoned frogs tried tojump out. The frogs on top could see that the pit was very deep and itlooked as if there was no way out, so they started yelling at the twofrogs in the pit to give up. "The pit is too deep. You're as good asdead," the chorus of frogs said. When the trapped frogs kept trying,the crowd yelled louder, "Give up. You're as good as dead." After awhile, one of the exhausted frogs took heed to what the others weresaying, and fell down and died.

But amazingly, the second frog kept jumping as hard as she coulddespite the negative remarks of those that kept yelling at her toaccept the inevitable and just die. Finally, with one valiant leap, shemade it out of the pit!

This amazing result occurred because the second frog was deaf annable to hear what the others had been saying. She thought they hadbeen cheering her on the entire time they were yelling! What she hadmistakenly perceived as encouragement inspired her to try harder andsucceed against all odds. And that made all the difference!

With a positive mindset, and being deaf to others' opinions, thesecond frog made use of such negativity to overcome obstacles and reachher goals by using it as encouragement, instead of being influenced byothers like the first frog, who failed to develop her potential tostrive for survival. Thus, when we surmount others' criticism, ridiculeor cynical comments, we can do anything we set our minds to, just asthe second frog did. But, if we are not deaf like this frog, who couldnot be influenced by others e to a physical condition, we need the Wisdom to guide us to the proper way, so as not to be blindly guided byworldly opinion.

I. 每天阅读一篇英语短文真的有用吗

小妹妹，你提高英语水平的方法是很好的，阅读是培养语感，增加词汇量的最好方法。但是有版一点我要跟你权说，我的很多老师和学姐都跟我说过，提高英语最好的方法是背诵短文。我建议你背新概念的书。第一册比较基础，看一看，读一读。你读高中，主要背第二册里面的短文，学有余力的情况下再背第三册。这样长时间坚持，有计划有阶梯地进行，你的英语水平一定会提高很多。仅仅读是不够的，要背才行，新概念的文章经典，短小，非常适合背诵。通过背，你积累了词汇，练习了发音，语法语感也会增强，这无论对于应试还是应用都有很大的帮助。
