你自己选Time【时间】Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.时光一去不复返,这是我上学期清楚学到的教训.我浪费很多时间四处游荡,以致于我的成绩开始退步.最后我终于了解到我必须有所作为；该是痛改前非的时候了.现在我有一个明智运用时间的新方法.我已将闹钟早拨半小时,这将使我这一天的作息提前开始.我也决定将我所做的一切及做这些事的时间记录下来.回顾我所做的事情会启发我如何重新安排我的时间.4．Work and Play【工作与娱乐】Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions.What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing movies. Usually I don't spare time for exercise, but I value the physical education class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's pressure. On weekends, I'll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week's work-load.工作与娱乐并不互相冲突,事实上,它们之间的关系还相辅相成.有句格言说：「整日工作而没有休闲娱乐,会令人变得沉闷乏味.」被工作重担压得喘不过气来的生活,将使你一事无成,因为你将对一成不变的例行公事感到厌烦.由另一方面来说,适度的娱乐活动能提供各种管道,来渲泄你被压抑的情绪,减轻单调生活中的紧张与不悦.放学之后,我最常做的休闲活动,便是慢跑与看电影.通常我并不特地拨出时间来做运动,但是我很重视学校的体育课.在操场上慢跑几圈,无疑地可以减轻一天的压力.在周末时,我都去看早场电影,享受视觉飨宴.如此一来,我将有如再生般的充沛活力,去面对下一星期的工作量.I will never forget the lessen which Mr. Li gave us. One day Mr. Li was speaking to us in our school meeting room. He began his speech by holding up a ￥100 bill. He asked, "Who would like this ￥100 bill?" Most of us put up our hands quickly. Then he said, "I am going to give this ￥ 100 to one of you, but first let me do this." He then made the bill into a ball and said; "Who wants it now?" We raised our hands again. But he said, “Wait a moment.” He then dropped it On the floor and stepped on it. After that, he picked up the dirty bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Many handswere still up."My friends," he said, "you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value. It was still worth ￥10O."We always lose many chances we take in our lives. "He went on speaking, "We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you willnever lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love. you,. Your value doesn't come from what you do or who you know, but WHO YOU ARE.""You are special and valuable. Don't ever forget it!" 我难以忘怀李老师给我们上的那一课.某天,他在学校的会议室给我们做了一次演讲.他手持一百美元,开始了他的讲话.“谁想要这100美元?”他问道.绝大部分的学生迅速举手.接下来,他说：“我会把这一百美元给你们之中的一个人,但是,我先得做点什么.”他将这张钞票揉成一团（这里个人觉得应该这样翻译比较准确）后说道：“现在,谁还要这100美元?”学生再一次举起手来.但是,他又说：“请稍等片刻.”他将钞票扔到地上用脚踩它,之后,他拾起这张脏了的钞票问道：“谁还要它?”很多人依然举手.“我的孩子们”,他说道,“今天,你们得到了宝贵的一课.不管我怎么对待这张钞票,你们依然想要得到它,这是因为我并没有贬低它的价值.它仍然是一张价值一百元的钞票.”“我们总是与生命中许多机会失之交臂.”他接着说道,“我们觉得自己没有价值,但是,要牢记,无论发生什么,我们的价值仍然存在,对于爱着你的人们来说,你有很大的价值,你的价值并不来源于你的出身还有你的作为,仅仅来源与你自身.”“别忘了,你是珍贵而特殊的存在.” 答案补充 The Wolf and the Crane狼与鹭鸶A WOLF who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed: " 答案补充 Why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf."In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.狼误吞下了一块骨头,十分难受,四处奔走,寻访医生.他遇见了鹭鸶,谈定酬金请他取出骨头,鹭鸶把自己的头伸进狼的喉咙里,叼出了骨头,便向狼要定好的酬金.狼回答说：“喂,朋友,你能从狼嘴里平安无事地收回头来,难道还不满足,怎么还要讲报酬?”这故事说明,对坏人行善的报酬,就是认识坏人不讲信用的本质A young business man had just started his business, and rented a beautiful office.
