美文赏析:别人是你的一面镜子，请把握好人生中的每一面镜子
每天照照镜子，我们都会发现自己不满意的地方，重新把自己打扮得漂漂亮亮的；而人呢？是否也懂得其实每一个人都是一面镜子。看着自己不喜欢的人，要懂得自己要如何更好的完善自己，别让自己也成为大家不喜欢的对象。请把握好人生中的每一面镜子。
别人是你的一面镜子
The first time you meet someone, in the first moment you form an impression inyour mind of that person. Your reactions to other people, however, are reallyjust barometers for how you perceive yourself. Your reactions to others saymore about you than they do about others. You cannot really love or hate aboutyourself. We are usually drawn to those who are most like us and tend todislike those who display those aspects of ourselves that we dislike.Therefore, you can allow others to be the mirror to illuminate more clearlyyour own feelings of self-worth. Conversely, you can view the people you judgenegatively as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself.
To coexist peacefully with others, you will need to learn tolerance. A bigchallenge is to shift your perspective radically from judgment of other to alifelong exploration of yourself. Your task is to assess all the decisions,judgments you make onto others and to begin to view them as clues to how youcan heal yourself and become whole.
I recently has a business lunch with a man who displayed objectionable tablemanners. My first reaction was to judge him as offensive and his table mannersas disgusting. When I noticed that I was judging him, I stopped and askedmyself what I was feeling. I discovered that I was embarrassed to be seen with
someone who was chewing with his mouth open and loudly blowing his nose. I wasastonished to find how much I cared about how the other people in therestaurant perceived me.
Remember that your judgment of someone will not serve as a protective shieldagainst you becoming like him. Just because I judge my lunch partner as offensive does not prevent me from ever looking or acting like him. In thesame way, extending tolerance to him would not cause me to suddenly begin chewing my food with my mouth open.
When you approach life in this manner, those with whom you have the greatest grievances as well as those you admire and love can be seen as mirrors,guiding your to discover parts of yourself that you reject and to embrace your greatest quality.
英语美文：孤独人生
Solitude --Ella Wheeler Wilcox
孤独
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
笑则天下笑，
泣则独自泣。
因悲哀的旧世界须借贷欢笑，
而它自身的麻烦不少。
唱则群山应，
叹则空散尽。
回声反射成欢欣，
倾诉忧虑无回音。
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
喜则人寻你，
悲则众人离。
他们要度量你的欢快，
但他们不要你的悲哀。
你高兴，朋友会多起来，
你悲伤，他们转身走开。
无人会拒绝你的佳酿，
但你要独自把生活的苦酒品尝。
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
设宴，高朋满盈，
斋戒，无人问津。
成功和慷慨能助你生，
但是他人救不了你死。
娱乐大厅里有一间房，
长长豪华列车停中央，
但我们都必须鱼贯上，
通过狭长痛苦的走廊。
美文欣赏:Life comes in a package 有种旅行叫作人生
人生是一个过程，更像一场旅行。旅行路上，有时风和日丽，有时狂风骤雨；不必畏惧，珍惜沿途的点点滴滴，克服面临的种种困难，用心感受，用心经营，让我们的人生旅程过得更加有意义。
Life comes in a package
有种旅行叫作人生
Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.
人生好似一个包裹，这个包裹里藏着快乐与悲伤、成功与失败，希望与绝望。人生也是一个学习的过程。那些经历给我们上了全新的课，让我们变得更好。随着每一天的过去，我们学会了处理各种各样的问题。
Love
Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
爱
爱在生活之外扮演了一个关键的角色。爱使你想要得到些什么。没有爱，一个人将走向不归路，变得凶暴、残忍。在我们最初的人生道路上，我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱，他们教会我们判断正确与错误、好与坏。然而我们常常把这想当然了，只有等到我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后，一个人才会懂得并注意别人的感受。孩子让我们变得富有责任心、变得成熟稳重，并且更好的理解人生。
Happiness and Sorrow
Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away.
快乐与悲伤
物质上的快乐往往是短暂的，然而，当你给予他人一个微笑的时候，那种满足却是无与伦比的。心灵的平静往往是快乐的源泉。没有平和的心态就没有快乐的心情。在伤心的时候，我们往往能够体会到快乐的真谛。悲伤基本都来自于一个爱人的去世、失败还有绝望，但是这样的事情都是暂时的，总会过去的。
Failure and Success
Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on out shoulder. The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.
失败与成功
失败是成功之母。它让我们触及蓝天，它教会我们如何生存，它给予我们一条特殊的路。成功给予我们金钱、名誉、骄傲和自尊。这里，保持头脑清醒便显得尤为重要。唯一能让我们感激上帝给予的成功便是始终卑微、谦虚、礼貌并且尊重没有我们幸运的`人们。
Hope and Despair
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
希望与绝望
希望是人生动力之源。父母总是希望自己的孩子能够做得很好。希望使我们有梦想。希望使我们变得有耐心。人生教会我们即使是在最困难的时候都不要绝望，因为黑暗之后终将是黎明。没有什么事一成不变的，我们惟有充满希望地继续生活。
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better
tomorrow.
人生教会我们不要对过去的事感到后悔，因为过去的终究是过去了并且我们已无法控制。没人知道明天会是怎样，因为它可以是光明的同样也可以是无趣的。所以，唯一的选择便是在今天努力工作，这样才能让我们去享受更美好的明天。
美文赏析:赞扬的益处(不要吝啬于对别人的赞美）
有时候，我们总吝啬于真诚的去赞美别人，要知道，发自内心的赞美绝对是双赢的。哈哈~大家试一下吧~要真诚的哦。
赞扬的益处
It was the end of my exhausting first day as a waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone awry, my apron was stained, my feet ached. The loaded trays I carried felt heavier and heavier. Weary and discouraged, I didn't seem able to do anything right. As I made out a complicated check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream order a dozen times, I was ready to quit.
我在纽约一家繁忙餐馆做女招待的第一天就要结束了，我感到精疲力尽。我的帽子歪了，围裙上污迹斑斑，两脚疼痛难忍。盛着食物的托盘让我感觉越来越沉重。我又疲倦又沮丧，似乎什么事情都没能干好。有一个带着好几个小孩的人家，他们在要冰激凌时换来换去多达十几次，就在我为他们开好复杂和账单时，我准备辞职不干了。
Then the father smiled at me as he handed me tip. "Well done," he said. "You've looked after us really well."
这时，那位当父亲一边把小费递给我，一边对我微笑。“干得不错，”他说，“你对我们照顾得真周到。”
Suddenly my tiredness vanished. I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I'd liked my first day, I said, "Fine!" Those few words of praise had changed everything.
顿时，我的倦意消失了。我对他也报以微笑。后来，经理问我第一天上班的感觉时，我说：“好极了！”那不多的几个赞美之辞改变了一切。
美文赏析:完美人生四大梦
完美人生是什么样子呢？伯恩·崔西（Brian Tracy）告诉我们，以下四大梦想成就完美人生：
Healthy and Fit
健康有活力
The first goal common to all of us is health and energy. We all want to be healthy and fit, to have high levels of energy and to live free of pain and illness. Today, with the incredible advances in medical science, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan, is largely determined by design, not by chance. People with excellent health habits are far healthier, have more energy, and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits.
人生的第一个大梦就是身体健康、精力充沛。每个人都希望自己健康，远离病苦病痛、精神舒畅、活力无穷。今天的医学发达，人类可以藉由良好的规划和调理，活得更健康、更长久。有良好生活习惯的人，比起那些糟蹋自己身体的人，能活得更健康、精力更旺盛。
Excellent Relationships
人际关系良好
The second goal that we all have in common is to enjoy excellent relationships--intimate, personal or social--with the people we like and respect, and who like, love and respect us in turn. Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like, love and respect you, has more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.
人生的第二大梦就是完美的人际关系，与亲人、朋友和同事，以及社会上一般人融洽相处、互动良好。我们爱且尊敬他人，而他人也爱且尊敬我们。人们在任何一个人生阶段或居住在任何一个地区是否觉得幸福快乐，其中有百分之八十五取决于融洽的人际关系。你与他人相处的情形，他人是否喜欢你、爱你、尊重你，构成了你是否觉得幸福快乐的关键因素。
Do What You Love
从事自己喜欢的工作
The third common goal is to do work that we enjoy, to do it well, and to be well paid for it. You want to be able to get and keep the job you want, to get paid more and promoted faster. You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career, whatever you do.
人生的第三个大梦就是做自己喜欢的工作，而且表现出色、薪酬优厚。每个人都希望从事自己喜欢的行业，拥有喜欢的工作、获得升迁、领取丰厚薪水和奖金。不论从事哪一个行业，每个人都希望在每一个职场阶段尽量赚取更多财富。
Achieve Financial Independence
财务独立
The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. You want to reach the point in life where you have enough money so that you never have to worry about money again. You want to be completely free of financial worries. You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without using the price listings to determine what you want to eat.
人生的第四个大梦就是达到财务独立。你希望能赚取相当数量的财富，一辈子都无须为钱烦恼。走进任何一家餐厅，你可以随心所欲第点餐享用，而无须留意价目表上的数字。
以上四大梦想您完成了多少呢？不管怎样，还是要记住那句话：If you can dream it, you can achieve it! 敢于梦想，就能实现！
英语美文 人生的十大法则
the rules for being human
1. You will receive a body.
You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire period.
1.你将拥有一个躯体。
你可以喜之也可以恶之，但它毕生都会属于你。
2. You will learn lessons.
You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life. Each day in this school you will learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid.
2.你将接受教育。
你入读了一所叫做"生活"的大学的全日制非正式学校。在学校的每一天你都将接受教育。你可以爱你所爱或者视之无聊而又豪无裨益。
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons.
Growth is a process of trial and error: Experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works".
3.没有过失，只有教训。
成长就是反复"尝试-犯错"的渐进过程，或者说是实验。那些所谓"失败"的实验和最终"奏效"的实验一样重要，都是这个过程的一部分。
4. A lesson is repeated until learned.
A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. Once learned, you then go on to the next lesson.
4.同样的教训会不断重复直到你真正领悟为止。
同样的教训会以不同的形式不断出现在你面前直到你学会为止。而一旦你学会了，就会马上进入下一课的学习。
5. Learning lessons does not end.
There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.
5.学无止境。
生活的每个部分无不包含可学之处。只要活着，你就学无止境。
6. "There" is no better than "here".
When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here".
当你终于拥有了不曾拥有的东西，你只会发现自己又在向往别的东西，它们看起来总比你拥有的东西要好些。
7. Others are merely mirrors of you.
You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.
7.他人只是你的镜子。
不要去爱慕或憎恶别人的品性，除非这些品性在你自己身上也能找到，而你以同样的态度处之。
8. What you make of your life is up to you.
You have all the tools and resources you need.
What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
8.要过怎样的生活由你作主。
你掌握着陆一切你所需的工具和资源，怎么用全由你作主。决策权在你手中。
9. The answers to Life's questions lie inside you.
All you need to do is look, listen and trust.
9.生活的答案皆藏心中。
你只须观察，聆听和信任。
10. You will forget all of this.
10.生活中你会忘记所有这些准则。
