美文赏析:Sand and Stone 沙子和石头
学会宽容,宽容是一种美德;学会感恩,才会更懂得珍惜生命中的一切。“当有人伤害了我们,我们应该把它写进沙里,宽恕的风会把仇恨抹去。而当有人为我们做了好事,我们应当把它刻在石头上,没有风可以将它抹去。”

总是会莫名地感到时间在抽丝剥茧般的将宝贵的回忆从我身上剥离,不止一次梦见自己站在一片空旷黑暗的空间里,脚下只有一条铁轨伸向远方,冗长如过往的光阴,最终消失在我的视野尽头。

青春是眼忘忧泉,高三是这眼泉水膨胀冒泡的季节。而我却在泡泡里嗅到了浓厚的习题的味道。我并不是排斥这些,但过大的压力确实带走了不多的乐趣。只可惜,高考过后,连压力也会成为回忆,成为我缅怀逝去的高三生活的证据。在时间面前我们是如此的无力,唯一能留下的,就只是那眼泉水和我们曾经无悔的誓言,但愿日复一日,年复一年,当我重新翻到这一页时,人心依旧。

英语美文 A story happened on an island 孤岛上的故事
A Story Happened on An Uninhabited Island
The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.
Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky.
The worst had happened; everything was lost.
He was stunned with grief and anger. "God how could you do this to me!" he cried.
Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him. "How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.
It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad.
But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering.
Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground it just may be a smoke signal that summons the grace of God.
For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves, God has a positive answer for it .
