【篇一:公主笑不出來了】
Yesterday Princess Eva was happy. She went to a carnival. The weather was sunny, and the food was delicious. There were Clowns and a band. But there was a bad magician at the carnival.
昨天,夏娃公主非常非常的開心。她參加了一個狂歡節(jié)。天氣是那么的晴朗,食物是那么的美味,狂歡節(jié)上還有小丑和樂隊。但是,狂歡節(jié)上也有一個壞蛋魔術(shù)師。
Princess Eva saw the magician and she laughed. The magician didn’t laugh. He touched her mouth with a wand. He said, “From now on, you can’t talk. You can’t laugh.”
夏娃公主看見了這個魔術(shù)師,她笑了起來。但是,魔術(shù)師并沒有笑。魔術(shù)師用魔杖碰了碰公主的嘴巴并說到:“從現(xiàn)在開始,你不能說話,也笑不出來了!”
And Princess Eva couldn’t make a sound.
然后,夏娃公主便不能用嘴發(fā)出任何聲音了。
Princess Eva could feel, and hear, and see, and smell, and taste. But she couldn’t talk. She couldn’t laugh. A doctor came and looked at her fingers, her ears, her eyes, her nose, and her tongue. She wasn’t sick.
夏娃公主能感覺到、能聽到、能看到、能聞到并能品嘗到味道,但是她就是不能說話,也笑不出來。醫(yī)生檢查了她的手指、她的耳朵、她的眼睛、她的鼻子和她的舌頭后,發(fā)現(xiàn)公主并沒有生病。
But something was wrong. Even a clown couldn’t make her laugh!
甚至小丑都不能把公主逗笑,一定是哪里出了問題。
But then one day, a nice man came to town. He had a band of animals. His dog, his cat, and his horse sang for the princess. They made loud noises. They sounded bad! The Princess started to laugh and laugh. “Look! I can laugh! I can talk!” she cried. It was a happy day.
直到有一天,一個善良的人來到了鎮(zhèn)上。他帶來了一個小動物樂隊。他的小狗,小貓和他的馬兒都唱歌公主聽。這些動物們的歌聲形成了很大的噪音,而且非常難聽。公主終于開始笑了。“看!我能笑了!我能說話了!”公主大喊了起來。這真是令人高興的一天。
【篇二:贊美他人,永遠不遲】
He was in the first third grade class I taught at Saint Mary’s School in Morris, Minn. All 34 of my students were dear to me, but Mark Eklund was one in a million. Very neat in appearance, he had that happy-to-be-alive attitude that made even his occasional mischievousness delightful.
我在明尼蘇達州莫里斯的圣瑪麗學(xué)校教書,他在我教的第 一個三年級的班上。全班34個學(xué)生每一個都討我喜歡,但馬克·??寺s是獨一無二的。他外表干干凈凈,是個樂天派,所以即便是他偶爾的調(diào)皮搗蛋,也依然討人喜歡。
Mark often talked incessantly. I had to remind him again and again that talking without permission was not acceptable. What impressed me so much, though, was his sincere response every time I had to correct him for misbehaving. "Thank you for correcting me, Sister!" I didn’t know what to make of it at first, but before long I became accustomed to hearing it many times a day.
馬克常常說個不停。我不得不一而再、再而三地提醒他,未經(jīng)允許不能講話。不過,令我印象深刻的是,每當(dāng)我不得已指出他的過錯的時候,他都非常誠懇地對我說:“謝謝你指出我的問題,修女!”起初,我不知該作何反應(yīng),但很快,我便習(xí)慣了一天聽到這句話好多遍。
One morning my patience was growing thin when Mark talked once too often, and then I made a novice-teacher’s mistake. I looked at him and said, "If you say one more word, I am going to tape your mouth shut!"
一天早上,馬克又講個不停,我終于不耐煩了,于是犯了個新老師才會犯的錯誤。我盯著他說:“再說一個字,我就拿膠帶把你的嘴封上!”
It wasn’t ten seconds later when Chuck, another student, blurted out, "Mark is talking again." I hadn’t asked any of the students to help me watch Mark, but since I had stated the punishment in front of the class, I had to act on it.
結(jié)果不到十秒鐘,另一個學(xué)生查克就脫口而出:“馬克又在講話了。”我并沒有讓任何同學(xué)幫我盯著馬克,不過既然我已經(jīng)當(dāng)著全班的面說過他再說話就要罰他,我得說話算話。
I remember the scene as if it had occurred this morning. I walked to my desk, very deliberately opened my drawer and took out a roll of masking tape. Without saying a word, I proceeded to Mark’s desk, tore off two pieces of tape and made a big X with them over his mouth. I then returned to the front of the room. As I glanced at Mark to see how he was doing, he winked at me. When I walked back to Mark’s desk and removed the tape, his first words were, "Thank you for correcting me, Sister."
接下來的一幕我至今仍記憶猶新,仿佛就發(fā)生在今天早上。我走到講桌前,不慌不忙拉打開抽屜,拿出一卷膠帶,然后一言不發(fā)地走到馬克桌前,撕下兩截膠帶,在他嘴上貼了個大大的“X”,然后轉(zhuǎn)身走回教室前面。我瞟了瞟馬克看他有什么反應(yīng),結(jié)果看到他朝我眨了眨眼睛。而當(dāng)我回到馬克桌前給他撕下膠帶時,他說的第 一句話便是:“謝謝你指出我的問題,修女?!?BR> One Friday, I asked the students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then I told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish the assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed me the paper.
在一個星期五,我讓同學(xué)們把班上除自己之外其他同學(xué)的名字寫在兩張紙上,名字與名字間留點空隙。然后我讓他們想想每位同學(xué)*好的地方是什么,并把這也寫下來。大家用那堂課剩余的時間完成了這項任務(wù),到下課離開教室的時候他們把各自的兩張紙交給了我。
That Saturday, I wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and I listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday I gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. "Really?" I heard the whispers. "I never knew that meant anything to anyone!" "I didn’t know others liked me so much!" Then Mark said, "Thank you for teaching me, Sister."
星期六的時候,我分別把每位同學(xué)的名字各寫在一張紙上,然后把其他同學(xué)對他的評價列在上面。到了星期一,我把各人的單子分發(fā)給他們。很快全班同學(xué)臉上都揚起了笑容。“真有這么好?”我聽見有人輕聲說?!拔覐牟恢滥菚e人有意義!”還有人說:“原來大家這么喜歡我??!”而馬克說:“修女,感謝你的教導(dǎo)?!?BR> No one ever mentioned those pieces of paper in class again. I never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents.
后來再沒人在課堂上提起過這些紙,我也不清楚他們有沒有在課下與同學(xué)或者父母談?wù)撨^。
Soon I was asked to teach junior-high math. The years flew by, and before I knew it Mark was in my classroom again. He was more handsome and more polite than ever. Maybe since he had to listen carefully to my instruction in the "new math", he did not talk as much in the ninth grade as he had in the third.
很快我就被調(diào)去教初中數(shù)學(xué)了。幾年的時間一晃而過,在我還未意識到的時候,馬克又出現(xiàn)在了我的課堂。他比以前帥氣了,人也更加彬彬有禮。也許是因為他必須認(rèn)真聽我用“新數(shù)學(xué)”法講課,九年級的他不再像三年級時那樣愛講話了。
That group of students moved on.
就這樣,這一批學(xué)生畢業(yè)了。
Several years later, after I returned from vacation, my parents met me at the airport. Mother gave Dad a side-ways glance and simply said, "Dad?" My father cleared his throat as he usually did before saying something important. "The Eklunds called last night," he began. "Really?" I said. "I haven’t heard from them in years. I wonder how Mark is." Dad responded quietly. "Mark was killed in Vietnam," he said. "The funeral is tomorrow, and his parents would like it if you could attend."
幾年后的一天,我度假歸來,父母來機場接我。媽媽斜斜地瞟了爸爸一眼,只說了兩個字:“她爸?”爸爸清了清嗓子——但凡有要事宣布,他都會這樣。說:“??寺〖易蛲泶蛄藗€電話過來?!薄笆菃幔俊蔽艺f,“好幾年沒他們的消息了,不知道馬克怎么樣了?!卑职州p聲地回答道:“馬克在越戰(zhàn)中犧牲了,葬禮在明天舉行。他父母希望你能去參加?!?BR> I had never seen a serviceman in a military coffin before. Mark looked so handsome, so mature.
我從未見過軍人躺在軍用棺材里的樣子。馬克看上去是那樣英俊,那樣成熟。
After the funeral, Mark’s mother and father found me. "We want to show you something," his father said. "They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might recognize it." Opening a billfold, he carefully removed two worn and frazzled pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded and refolded many times. I knew without looking that the pieces of paper were the ones on which I had listed all the good things that Mark’s classmates had said about him. "Thank you so much for doing that." Mark’s mother said. "As you can see, Mark behaved better and better at school. It’s all because of you and your list."
葬禮結(jié)束后,馬克的父母找到了我。“我們想給您看一樣?xùn)|西,”他爸爸說,“馬克犧牲的時候他們在他身上找到了這個。我們想您可能認(rèn)得?!彼蜷_皮夾,小心翼翼地取出兩張破損不堪的筆記本紙。很明顯,這兩張紙用膠帶補過、反復(fù)折疊過。不用看我也知道,這就是當(dāng)初那兩張紙,我當(dāng)時把馬克的同學(xué)們對他的表揚都寫在了上面。“您所做的這些,我們感激不盡,”馬克的媽媽說,“您也看到了,馬克在學(xué)校里的表現(xiàn)越來越好。這都歸功于您和您的這張單子?!?BR> Mark’s classmates started to gather around us. Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said, "I still have my list. It’s in the top drawer of my desk at home." Chuck’s wife said, "Chuck asked me to put this in our wedding album." "I have mine too," Marilyn said. "It’s in my diary." Then Vicki, another classmate, reached into her pocketbook, took out her wallet and showed her worn list to the group. "I carry this with me at all times," Vicki said without batting an eyelash. "I think we all saved our lists."
這時,馬克的同學(xué)們也圍了過來。查利靦腆地笑著說:“這張單子我現(xiàn)在還保留著,就在我家書桌*上面的抽屜里?!辈榭说钠拮诱f:“查克讓我把這個放在我們的結(jié)婚紀(jì)念冊里?!薄拔业囊苍?,”瑪麗蓮說,“就在我日記本里?!苯又?,另一個同學(xué)維姬從手提袋里取出錢包,給大家看那張已經(jīng)磨損了的紙?!拔乙恢卑堰@個帶在身上,”維姬眼睛一眨不眨地說,“我想我們都保存著自己的單子。”
That’s when I finally sat down and cried.
那一刻,我終于坐下大哭起來。
Sometimes the smallest things could mean the most to others. The density of people in society is so thick that we forget life will end one day and we don’t know when that one day will be. Compliment the people you love and care about, before it is too late.
有時候,即便是*微不足道的事情,對他人也可能意義非凡。在這個社會上,在熙熙攘攘的人群中,我們哪里還會記得某天人生終會走到盡頭,更不知道那一天何時到來。所以,趁一切都還來得及,去贊美你愛著、關(guān)心著的人吧!
【篇三:這是不公平】
It's Unfair
Linda was a good girl, but she was often late for school.
One day, she was late again. When she came in, Mr. Clark, her teacher said angrily, "I'll tell you father if you are late again." Linda didn't want him to do that. Because her father was very strict with her.
The next morning, Linda got up early. She hurried to school. At the school gate, she heard the first bell, "What shall I do?" she asked herself, "I'll turn it in first." She decided. And so she did.
When she hurried into her classroom, Mr. Clack was already beginning his class.
"Linda! Didn't I tell you to be here on time?" Mr. Clack said as he as her.
"I'm sorry, sir," Linda tried to explain, "I'm late because I had to…?"
"I don't listen to any excuse," Mr. Clack stopped her. "If you can't get here on time, I have to tell your father."
"But Mr. Clack. It's …it's unfair!"
"Unfair! How dare you say that?" Mr. Clack said angrily, "I'll report you to the headmaster.
"I was only trying to do a good idea," Linda thought,"and now…" She couldn't keep back her tears.
When the bell rang for the break, the door opened and Mr. White, the headmaster came in. he was holding a wallet in his hand, "Excuse me, Mr. Clack. Is this your wallet?"
"Oh,yes. It's my wallet. Who found it? I must thank him."
"Linda found it and turned it in before school started." Mr. Whitesaid.
Mr. Clack face slowly turned red. He looked at Linda and said, "I'm very sorry. Linda. I take back what I said."
"And I'm sorry. Mr. Clack. I'll try not to be late again." Linda said.
這是不公平
琳達是一個好女孩,但她經(jīng)常遲到。
一天,琳達又遲到了。當(dāng)她進來的時,她的老師克拉克先生生氣說:"如果你在遲到, 我就通知你爸爸。"琳達不想他那么做,因為她爸爸對她要求很嚴(yán)格。
二天,琳達起床很早。她匆匆向?qū)W校走去,在學(xué)校大門口,她停下來了。因為地上有一個錢夾。當(dāng)她站在那兒是,她聽見了第 一遍鈴聲,"我該怎么辦呢?"她自言自語,"我要先把它交上去。"她下定決定,于是她就是這么做了。
當(dāng)她匆匆走進教室的時候,克拉克先生已經(jīng)開始講課了。
"琳達,我沒有告訴你早點來嗎?"克拉克先生一看到琳達就說,
"對不起,先生。"琳達想解釋,"我遲到是因為我不得不……"
"我不想聽任何借口,"克拉克阻止道, "如果你不能準(zhǔn)時到這兒,我不得不告訴你父親。"
"但是,克拉克先生,這是…..這是不公平的!"
"不公平!你怎么敢那么說!"克拉克先生憤怒的說,"我要把你的事情匯報給校長!"
"我只想做一件好事,"琳達心想,"但是現(xiàn)在……"她的眼淚阻止不住流下來。
當(dāng)下課鈴聲響起是,教室的門開了,校長懷特先生走了進來。他的手里拿著一個錢夾:"打擾一下,克拉克先生,這是你的錢夾嗎?"
"哦,是我的。是誰找到的?我一定的謝謝她。"
"琳達發(fā)現(xiàn)的,并在上課前把它交來了。"懷特先生說。
克拉克先生的臉漸漸紅了,他看了看琳達,慚愧地說:"對不起,琳達,我收回我說過的話。"
"我也不對,克拉克先生,我下次盡量不再遲到了。"琳達說。

這是不公平
琳達是一個好女孩,但她經(jīng)常遲到。
一天,琳達又遲到了。當(dāng)她進來的時,她的老師克拉克先生生氣說:"如果你在遲到, 我就通知你爸爸。"琳達不想他那么做,因為她爸爸對她要求很嚴(yán)格。
二天,琳達起床很早。她匆匆向?qū)W校走去,在學(xué)校大門口,她停下來了。因為地上有一個錢夾。當(dāng)她站在那兒是,她聽見了第 一遍鈴聲,"我該怎么辦呢?"她自言自語,"我要先把它交上去。"她下定決定,于是她就是這么做了。
當(dāng)她匆匆走進教室的時候,克拉克先生已經(jīng)開始講課了。
"琳達,我沒有告訴你早點來嗎?"克拉克先生一看到琳達就說,
"對不起,先生。"琳達想解釋,"我遲到是因為我不得不……"
"我不想聽任何借口,"克拉克阻止道, "如果你不能準(zhǔn)時到這兒,我不得不告訴你父親。"
"但是,克拉克先生,這是…..這是不公平的!"
"不公平!你怎么敢那么說!"克拉克先生憤怒的說,"我要把你的事情匯報給校長!"
"我只想做一件好事,"琳達心想,"但是現(xiàn)在……"她的眼淚阻止不住流下來。
當(dāng)下課鈴聲響起是,教室的門開了,校長懷特先生走了進來。他的手里拿著一個錢夾:"打擾一下,克拉克先生,這是你的錢夾嗎?"
"哦,是我的。是誰找到的?我一定的謝謝她。"
"琳達發(fā)現(xiàn)的,并在上課前把它交來了。"懷特先生說。
克拉克先生的臉漸漸紅了,他看了看琳達,慚愧地說:"對不起,琳達,我收回我說過的話。"
"我也不對,克拉克先生,我下次盡量不再遲到了。"琳達說。
