励志英语美文阅读：永不放弃梦想

The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know.I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled，little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire

being.She said，“Hi handsome.My name is Rose.I' m eighty-seven years old.Can I give you a hug?”I laughed and enthusiastically responded，“Of course you may.”and she

gave me a giant squeeze.

开学的第一天教授做了自我介绍，他还要求我们去结识某位我们

还不理解的人。就在我站起来四处张望时，一只手轻轻地搭在了我的

肩上。我转过身一看，一位满脸皱纹个子矮小的老太太正冲着我微笑。这微笑使她浑身光彩照人。她说：“嘿，帅小伙儿，我叫罗斯，今年

87岁。我能够拥抱你吗?”我笑了起来，热情地答道：“当然能够啦。”她紧紧地拥抱了我。

“Why are you in college at such a young，innocent

age?”I asked. She jokingly replied，“I'm here to meet a

rich husband，get married，have a couple of children，and

then retire and travel.”“No，seriously?”I asked.I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.

“你为什么在这么年轻而天真的年龄上大学?”我问。她开玩笑地

回答说：“我要在此遇到一个有钱的丈夫，结婚，生几个孩子，然后

退休，去旅游。”“真的吗?不对吧?”我问她。我很想知道，她这么

大年纪，是什么促使她接受这样的挑战呢。

“I always dreamed of having a college education and now

I'm getting one.”she told me.After class we walked to the

student union building and shared a chocolate milk shake We became instant friends.Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop.I was always mesmerized listening to this“time machine”as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.

“我一直梦想接受大学教育。而现在我如愿以偿了。”她告诉我说。课后我们一同到学生活动楼，共饮了一杯巧克力泡沫牛奶。我们

一下子就成了朋友。在此后的三个月中，我们每天都一起离开课堂，

聊起来没完没了。在她向我传授她的智慧和经验时，我总是着了迷似

地倾听这个“时间机器”。

Over the course of the year，Rose became a campus icon

and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed up her

from the other students.She was living it up. At the end of

the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I'll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the podium. As she began to deliver her

prepared speech，she dropped her three by five cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into

the microphone and simply said，“I'm sorry I'm so jittery.I gave up beer for Lent(一种威士忌的牌子) and this whisky is killing me. I'll never get my speech back in order so let me just t ell you what I know.” As we laughed she cleared her throat and began：“We do not stop playing because we are

old;we grow old because we stop playing.There are only four secrets to staying young，being happy，and achieving success.”

在这个年里，罗斯成了校园里的偶像。不管到哪里，她很容易地

就交上了朋友。她喜欢精心打扮，陶醉于其他学生对她的注意。她尽

情地享受这个切。到学期末，我们请罗斯在我们的足球宴会上讲话。

我永远也不会忘记她给我们的教诲。介绍完毕后她就登上讲台。正当她要开始已准备好的演讲时，她的5寸长3寸宽的卡片掉在了地上。她有些不知所措，还有点尴尬，于是就靠近话筒干脆说了起来：“很抱歉我这么紧张。我为大斋节戒了啤酒，而这威士忌不过毁了我。按原先准备好了的讲是不可能了，还是把我所知道的说给你们听吧。”我们都笑了，她则清了清嗓子开始说：“我们并不因为自己老了而不娱乐;我们因为停止了娱乐而变老。要想保持年轻，过得幸福并取得成功只有4条秘诀。”

“You have to laugh and find humor every day.”

“每天都要笑，每天都要找到幽默。”

“You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams，you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead an d don't even know it.”

“一定要有梦想。失去了梦想，人就死了。在我们周围有那么多行尸走肉般的人，他们却不自知。”

“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing，you will turn twenty years old. If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.”

“变老和成熟是有巨大区别的。如果你19岁，在床上躺一整年，而不做一件有成效的事情，你会到20岁。如果我87岁，在床上待一年什么也不做，我也会到88岁。谁都会老，那不需要天才或水平。我的意思是要通过在变化中持续地寻找机会而达到成熟。”

英语美文(带翻译)

Always will I seek the seed of triumph in every adversity 在困境中寻找成功的希望 1．There is no better school than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve my performance next time. Never again will I contribute to my downfall by refusing to face the truth and learn from my past mistakes. Because I know: gems cannot shine without polish, and I cannot perfect myself without hardship. 2．Now I know that there are no times in life when opportunity, the chance to be and do, gathers so richly about my soul as when it has to suffer cruel adversity. Then everything depends on whether I raise my head or lower it in seeking help. Whenever I am struck down, in the future, by any terrible defeat, I will always inquire of myself, after the first pain has passed how I can turn that adversity into good. What a great opportunity that moment might present… to take the bitter root I am holding and transform it into a fragrant garden of flowers. 3．Always will I seek the seed of triumph in every adversity. 1．逆境是一所最好的学校每一次打击、每一次损失。都蕴含着成功的萌芽。都教会我在下一次有更出色的表现。我再也不会逃避现实，也不会拒绝从以往的错误中获取经验，我不再因此促成自己的失败。因为我我知道，宝玉不经磨砺就不能发光，没有磨练，我也不完善自我。 2．现在我知道，灵魂倍受煎熬的时刻，也正是生命中最多选择与机会的时刻。任何事情的成败取决于我在寻求帮助时是抬起头还是低下头。无论何时，当我被可怕的失败击倒，在最初的阵痛过去之后，我都要想方设法将苦难变成好事。伟大的机遇就在这一刻闪现——这苦涩的根本必将迎来满园芬芳！ 3．我将一直在困境中寻找成功希望。 Hold Fast to Dreams 紧紧抓住梦想 1．We all have dreams. We all want to believe deep down in our souls that we have a special gift, that we can make a difference, that we can touch others in a special way, and that we can make the world a better place. 2．At one time in our lives, we all had a vision for the quality of life that we desire and deserve. Yet, for many of us, those dreams have become so shrouded in the frustrations and routines of daily life that we no longer even make an effort to accomplish them. For far too many, the dream has dissipated and with it, so has the will to shape our destinies. Many have lost that sense of certainty that creates the winner’s edge.

She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."上帝答道：“在众多的天使中，我特别为你挑了一位。 她会守候你，无微不至地照顾你。 But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go. "But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy."小孩还是拿不准自己是否真的想去：“但是在天堂，我除了唱唱笑笑外，什么也不做，这就足以让我感到幸福了。 "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy."“你的天使每天会为你唱歌，为你微笑。 你会感受她的爱，并且因此而幸福。 "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me," the child continued, "If I don't know the language that men talk?"“如果我不懂人类的语言，他们对我说话时，我怎么听得懂呢?孩子继续问道。 God patted him on the head and said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."上帝轻轻地拍

永不放弃

永不放弃 本文是关于励志文章的，仅供参考，如果觉得很不错，欢迎点评和分享。 永不放弃 有人说：我理解的野心，更多的是对困难的无所畏惧，考虑了一些难题后，第一个想到的是放弃。 我说：这话不对，既然你自己知道什么叫野心，说明你已经理解了我所说的野心的真实意义。为什么会考虑了一些难题后，第一个想到的是放弃呢？难道说你连这点道理都不懂，那你就真的是个杯具。好的质量的杯具还未必一摔就碎，可你就想放弃。我看你似乎缺了点儿什么？知道吗？你最缺的是做人起码的志气，还好意思说呢，你这放弃的不是什么别的东西，而是放弃了你自己的青春人生。因为任何一个人，都不能说放弃。我今年都八十二周岁了，我都会懂得要永不言弃。而你这么年轻，正是努力学习工作的大好良机。你以为你随随便便就说放弃，那说明你放弃的是你自己的人生。我看你就是个杯具。 我觉得一个没志气的人，本身就是一场悲剧。有时候我也会想不明白，为什么有这些个年轻人，一见到哪怕一点点困难，第一时间就想到要放弃。 我想起有这样一位作家汪洋，还是旅美的作家，中国作家协会会员，北美洛杉矶华文写作协会理事兼秘书长，洛杉矶文化艺术界知名节目主持人。出版长篇小说《在疼痛中奔跑》、《走向彼岸》、《暗香》

等五部著作。电视剧本《大难夫妻》已拍摄完成，获得美国国会颁发“杰出华人作家奖”、中国“乌江文学奖”。 她写了一部名叫《永不放弃自己》的传记小说，描写了一个曾经是最倒霉落魄的女人：少年丧父，高考落榜，离婚，失业，抱着脑瘫的女儿绝望奔走。 如今，她被美国媒体誉为极品女人，成为跨国集团的总裁夫人。被美国国会授予“华人作家成就奖”，成为美国上流社会的宠儿。 我劝你应该去读读这本书，看看这些陷于困境的人们，能从本书中获得与生活博弈的勇气。 你也许不能改变你的容貌，但你能通过修炼让自己变成一个魅力四射的女人。汪洋的经历就充分证明了这一点。《永不放弃自己》一书告诉大家，只要你不放弃希望，灰姑娘也会变成美丽的公主，你梦想的一切都会实现！ 美国第一任华人女市长陈李琬若说：我从这个娇媚的东方女子身上看到了坚韧的力量。 著名作家白先勇说：汪洋这位弱柳扶风、才情充沛的女子，不放弃自己内心的理想，执着坚定、百折不挠，恰如我数十年对昆曲执着的推广和研究，我欣慰她终于迎来了自己的辉煌！ 现代艺术大师丁绍光说：美丽的女人是佳品，秀外慧中的女人是极品，世间佳品易得，极品寥寥。我认识的女性朋友中，汪洋可算做极品女人中的典范。 网络上有很多关于她的报道和文章，我请这位朋友看看吧。你也

励志成功,永不放弃演讲稿

《励志成功，永不放弃》 各位同学们： 大家好！我演讲的题目是《励志成功，永不放弃》。我先给大家讲个故事。在非洲的一片茂密丛林中，走着四个皮包骨头的男子，他们扛着一只沉重的箱子，在密林里踉踉跄跄地向前走。他们跟随队长进入丛林探险，队长却在任务即将完成时患疾病不幸长眠于丛林中了。 临终前队长把亲手制作的箱子托付给他们，并十分诚恳地说：“如果你们能把这个箱子送到我的朋友手里，你们将得到比金子还宝贵的东西。” 埋葬了队长之后，他们便扛着箱子上路了，道路越来越难走，他们的力气也越来越小了，但他们仍然鼓起劲往前走着。终于有一天，绿色的屏障突然拉开了，他们历经千辛万苦之后终于走出了丛林，找到了队长的朋友，可是那个朋友却说：“我一无所有啊！”于是，打开箱子一看，竟是一堆无用的木头！但是，这箱无用的木头，却使他们永不放弃，使他们获得了比金子还贵重的东西——生命。这个故事启示着我们做任何事情必须要有永不放弃的精神，这样才能拥有成功。 作为即将参加高考的高二学子，我们正前行在人生奋斗的征途中，万里长征，我们刚刚起步。就在这起步的阶段，我们获得过掌声，也遭逢过挫折。月考与竞赛后的几家欢乐几家愁，就是最好的证明。面对成绩，无疑要胜而不骄，再接再厉；而面对失败，我们则要坚定地说，切莫放弃。 亚伯拉罕·林肯先生，24岁经商失败，26岁恋人死去，27岁精神崩溃，中年时代多次竞选参议员和副总统，均告失败。或许只有这些，才能算得上人生中真正的挫折。可面对这么多挫折，林肯并没有放弃自己的追求，而是仍旧坚持不懈地努力。最终，他成为了美国第十六任总统。正是因为决不在挫折面前轻言放弃，林肯最终实现了自己的理想。

英语美文欣赏带翻译

Friends or 'Enemies?' When I was younger, my Dad used to tell me: "Boys don't want to be your friend." He then left the rest to my imagination. At the time, I didn't agree. I thought: I can crack a good joke, I know how to shoot a hoop, and I'm a cheerful person (but not in an annoying way). What kind of boy wouldn't want to be around that kind of girl? Turns out, my Dad was right. Not to be all "Samantha Brick" about it, but in my experience, single, heterosexual men aren't actively looking for an exclusively platonic relationship with a woman they find sexually attractive. This of course is not a revolutionary concept. In fact, it seems pretty natural to me. Now, I will be the first to say that it is really and truly the most wonderful thing in the world if the attraction is mutual. But the Powers That Be seem to like to play these complicated little mating games with humans where the guy we want to re-enact scenes from 9? Weeks with sees our attractiveness level as akin to that of a discarded dishcloth, and the most physical we could see ourselves being with the guy who actually likes us is a game of ping pong over an especially long table. All of which means that someone usually ends up getting rejected. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I have struggled with the scenario where I am not interested in a man romantically, but I want to keep him as a friend because he is funny and I enjoy his company, or he has shown himself to be that rare specimen known as "a nice, genuine person, " or he simply doesn't mention his therapist in every other sentence. Rather than string him along and give him hope, I feel compelled to somehow communicate to him sooner rather than later that we'll just be staying friends, nothing more. Otherwise, I think I am being unfair to him. Why should he waste his romantic stamina on me when there are loads of other single women out there who might fall instantly in love with him? The thing is, it can sometimes be tricky to reject a man and keep him as a friend. If the operation is not executed carefully, you may end up creating a "menemy." It requires a certain amount of skill to be able to turn down a man's sexual advances or romantic gestures and then get him to agree to meet you for blueberry pancakes the following weekend and chat about the latest Woody Allen film. Some men aren't satisfied with just that. I'm not clear why. What's so bad about friendship? Everyone needs buddies. But I've seen men react poorly or simply fall off the face of the earth. I get it -- their feelings are hurt. None of us likes getting rejected. But in my experience, some men find it especially soul-crushing. I am only bringing all of this up because I recently had to go through this scenario again. I had spent some time cultivating a friendship with a man who, in my defense, I thought was gay. So I didn't see the harm in him buying me the occasional falafel, or accepting an invitation to see a film with him. Isn't that what friends are for? But a mutual friend shed light on his sexual orientation (straight) and suggested that his intentions -- and attentions -- weren't platonic. He had never "made the moves" but now it was all crystal clear -- that explains the way he had looked at me that time the tahini sauce dribbled down my chin! Since he had clearly been too timid to express his feelings, I thought I would be clever this time and subtly mention the dates I had been going on, focusing on the one guy I was kind of keen on, so that he would know that I was "unavailable" for heavy petting and those sorts of activities, but that I was available for things like roller skating, falafel-eating and shooting the breeze. Doesn't that sound nice? That way, he would known not to try to lean in for a kiss, and I wouldn't have to pull the Stevie Wonder dance and dodge him went he went for it. It was like pre-rejection, yet I was sparing his feelings because he didn't even have to put himself out there! I really thought I was being brilliant. It backfired, of course. Said man ended up sending me an email rant accusing me of being insensitive by talking about other men when he had "feelings for me." As if I am psychic, by the way, just because I am a woman! How was I supposed to know that? I think in his mind we were dating. In my mind, he was my new gay BFF. In the end, I got mad at him for getting mad at me, and now the friendship has ended. And I have created yet another "menemy." Look, I have also tried the direct thing: "I really like you, but only as a friend, " but you can only do that when the guy has made his intentions clear, and in my experience, they either cope okay (though rarely do I feel much enthusiasm for friendship after that), or they really don't cope well. I also tried the thing where you make them think they are rejecting you, but it gets quite confusing and only works if the guy isn't very sharp, and why would I -- or you -- be hanging out with someone not that sharp in the first place? As we all remember, Billy Crystal's character says men and women can't be friends in When Harry Met Sally because the sex stuff gets in the way. I do have single, male, heterosexual friends with whom I have an easy, non-romantic rapport, but I honestly don't know if they would walk away if I was sprawled naked on a bed calling out to them. I may not be everybody's cup of tea, but sometimes, I wonder if they wonder. And they may wonder if I wonder. If so, I hope they'll keep it to

And then I lay down hoping to fall asleep quickly so my new day will hurry up and arrive. A new day with a brand new sun. But as I lay there and wait for the world to turn half way around, I think about her. And sometimes I smile, and sometimes that smile will turn into asnicker, and then often that snicker will turn into a burst of laughter. 我按平时的规律吃晚餐、打扫屋子、写作——做着日常事务。然后我躺下，希望能快点入睡，新的一天就能快点到来——拥有新生太阳的崭新的一天。可当我躺在那儿，等待着世界的日夜回转时，我想到了她。有时我会笑起来，有时那微笑变成了窃笑，然后窃笑又常常变成爆笑。 And then there are times I get that lump in my throat and that tight feeling in my chest, and sometimes that feeling overwhelms me and begins to turn into a tear, and often that tear multiplies itself and I can no longer fight the feeling and I lose the battle. Then somehow through either the joy or the sadness I drift and find myself asleep. Then the dreams begin and keep me company until my new day arrives. 也有些时候，我的喉咙像是被一块东西哽住了，胸口发闷;有时那种伤感席卷 而来，我开始流泪，眼泪常常越流越多，我再也无力抵抗悲伤，败下阵来。然后不知怎的，我在或喜悦或悲伤中飘荡，逐渐入眠。然后梦境开始伴我左右，直至新的一天到来。 When I awake it’s with such excitement because I tell m yself this could be the day that every other day has led up to and the first day of the rest of my life. I quickly don my smile because I do so want her to see me at my very best. Then I look out the window because, even though I know it’s dawn, I still have to confirm I’ve been given another chance to find her.

俞敏洪经典励志文章：让现在的行动拥有未来的意义

俞敏洪经典励志文章：让现在的行动 拥有未来的意义 俞敏洪经典励志文章：让现在的行动拥有未来的意义 动物的一生通常只停留在生存的追求上，为活而活着，而人类现已进化得超越此境界了。人类的眼光越伸越远，从空间上越过地平线看向太空，从时间上越过现在伸向未来，从生命上越过自己走向后代。人类拥有了穿越时空，看向未来的眼光，也正是因为这一眼光，使人类真正区别于其他动物。尽管我们的行动还有很大一部分是为了现在活着，但随着人类精神生活的丰富和对更美好生活的执著追求，让现在的行动拥有未来的意义已经变得十分重要。 之所以要让现在的行动拥有未来的意义，是因为人的未来是需要设计的。我们已经没有办法像动物一样自生自灭，我们也已经没有办法像动物一样靠

肉搏来获得生存的机会。在几乎所有的人都或多或少在设计未来时，有一个事实让我们已经无法逃避：谁能够把自己的未来设计得更好，谁就能够取得生命的最佳位置。 让现在的行动拥有未来的意义，需要几个前提条件，一是你现在能够相对较好地生存下去，如果我们每天工作二十个小时还养不活自己，就很难为了未来而行动；二是我们必须具备面向未来的眼光，很多人生活得很好，但面对未来却一脸茫然，于是把时间浪费在了喝酒、打牌、聊天、看电视上面，结果只会使生命随波逐流。三是需要有放弃的勇气，有时候为了未来活得更好，我们需要放弃眼前的一些享乐，甚至需要在一段时间内过孤独的、像苦行僧一样的生活。 让现在的行动拥有未来的意义，并不意味着要大家放弃现在生活中的乐趣；也不是要求大家为了未来，让现在的行动变得苦不堪言。人类的智慧就体

现在如何把今天和明天结合起来，如何把今生和来世结合起来。要做到这些，如下两点十分重要：一是你现在做的事情是你喜欢做的事情，或者通过努力变得喜欢做的事情。比如说你喜欢读书，读书本身就是一种享受，同时“开卷有益”，读书能增长我们的智慧，提升我们的眼界，帮助我们更好地规划未来，所以要多读书。但是，如果你喜欢的事情不具备未来的意义，就要尽量少做，比如你喜欢打麻将，就必须严格控制，否则生命会随着麻将的噼啪声而烟消云散。二是现在做的事情能够和未来你生命中某一个更有意义的时刻挂钩。比如说学生努力学习，尽管很辛苦，但最大的动力就是能够进入名牌大学。如果未来某一个有意义的时刻必须以现在的痛苦为代价，而你认为付出这种代价是值得的，那痛苦就会变成一种可以忍受的东西，甚至可以从中培养出坚忍不拔、永不放弃的精神来。就如马拉松比赛一样，很少有人会认为马拉松比赛本身是

Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations1 of government officials and the events during 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 and what not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the records of human history. From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations of youth. History records the suffering, the self-denial2, the devotion, and the heroic deeds of people in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really need peace.

英语励志美文一

短文1. Luck and Hard Work运气和努力 Good evening, Ladies and Gentlemen, I believe that everyone here wants to be successful in life. But how can we succeed? Nowadays,it is generally believed among young people that success comes from luck. They believe it in love, in examinations and even in promotion. But in fact, success depends on knowledge and hard work. You can get whatever you dream of if you work hard enough. Even if you may fail sometimes, you are bound to succeed someday if you stick to your goals. Remember your fate lies in your own hands. Your future also lies in your own hands. As long as you put your heart into your work, you will realize all your dreams.It’s diligence, not good luck that can bring you success in your life and career. Luck doesn't come alone. It goes hand in hand with knowledge and hard work. Shallow men(肤浅的人) believe in luck. Hard work is the first secret of success. 短文2. Happiness Is Your Own Choice选择快乐你就快乐 Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happier, a relative, someone we know a lot, or someone we hardly know. As a result, what we do remember is anything that makes the other happy and anything that makes ourselves unhappy, totally forgetting that there is something happy in our own life. So the best way to destroy happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest flaw. It is the smallest weakpoit that would make us complain. And it is the complaint that leads us to become unhappy. If one chooses to be happy, he will be blessed.Happiness is just what you think will make you happy. 短文3. How to live a productive life 如何过丰富的生活 Ladies and gentlemen, Today I’m going to talk about how to live a productive life. Every day is a gift, even days that are difficult or days you feel down. Appreciate every day. Learn something new every day. Do something to improve yourself every day. Don’t delay. Don’t let your dreams die. Don’t waste time. Just do it. Life is too short to waste even one single day. If you live every day fully and productive ly, you’re bound to succeed. Remember, yesterday is a memory, tomorrow is a dream, live for today. Thank you for your listening! 短文4. Key Factors to Success成功的关键因素 No doubt, everyone wishes to be successful in life. But most success depends on three factors: diligence, devotion, and perseverance. The first key factor is diligence. Diligence can help us remove ignorance and overcome difficulties .It can make a fool wise ,and a poor man rich .If we are diligent now, we will surely be successful in the future. Devotion, which means the concentration of our mind and effort in doing things, is another key factor to success. Whatever job we are doing ,we must love it and do it heart and soul .Only when we set our minds on the job can we do it well. Furthermore, perseverance is also necessary for any success. If we study or work day after day, there is nothing that cannot be achieved. Without a strong will, on the other hand, we are likely
