He even had a testament prepared!”

“我从不允许这个世界上的任何污秽通过我的笑声接触到我。”

His testament stated.

So the old man's body was placed on the pyre with the garments he was wearing when he had arrived,

于是老人的尸体和他来的时候穿的衣服都被放在柴堆上，

and as the fire was lit and started licking on his clothes, to everyone's astonishment, suddenly fireworks of a hundred colours went exploding up and down and to all directions and finally the people who had gathered there also joined the laughter of the two wise man.

求一个简单易懂的英文哲理小故事

，是很多高中学子用来练习英语阅读的文章，因为不仅仅可以练习，还可以学到人生哲理。下面是我为大家整理的关于的相关资料，供您参考!

　篇1：Look Within to Find Happiness

How often do you hear people say "I will be happy when ..."such as "When I get that thing, I will be happy," "I will be happy when I pass the exam" and "I would be happy if I had more money". I have heard these things before and I am sure that I will hear them again.

"等我得到那个东西就会开心","等我通过那次考试就会开心","等我有更多的钱就会开心",诸如此类的"等……的时候就会开心"话,你听过不少次吧?我听过这样话,而且相信以后还会听到。

Many people want to believe that finding happiness is all about finding or getting something that they want. However, not many people have ever found long-term happiness by achieving a goal. There will always be another thing that they want. There will always be another exam or another dollar.

许多人都相信,找到幸福就等于找到或得到他们的心仪之物。然而,很多人并没有在目标实现之后就获得长久的幸福。这是因为人们总想要得到更多的东西,总还要走入考场,总还要赚更多的钱。

To break this vicious cycle, we must find our happiness somewhere else —within ourselves. In other words, happiness is pletely an inside job. The key to finding happiness is to understand that happiness is a choice rather than the result of an experience. We have been given duanwenw everything

为了打破这种恶性回圈,我们必须在其他地方找到幸福——那就是在我们的内心世界里。换句话说,幸福是心灵的产物。得到幸福的关键就在于要懂得幸福是一种选择,而不是经历的结果。

We need to be happy. Allow yourself to choose happiness. If life was perfect, would you be happy? Life is perfect because we create it with our choices. Since we can create life, we can create happiness and choose how much better our lives can get!

我们已经拥有获得幸福所需要的一切。去选择自己的幸福吧!倘若生活是完美的,你会觉得幸福吗?人生之所以完美就因为它是我们通过选择创造出来的。既然我们能创造生活,我们就能创造幸福,并选择更美好的人生!

Only when we can accept that life is perfect as it is, and that our lives are the sum total of everything that has happened up to this moment, can we accept the joy and the happiness we deserve.

我们只有在接受生活原本就很完美,并且生活就是此刻所经历之事的全部之时,我们才能得到我们应得的那份喜悦与幸福。

　篇2：searching because it is here.

Are you looking for a great opportunity? Well, you can stop searching because it is here.

你是否在寻找一次绝好的机会呢?行了,不必找了,好机会就在你身边。

The greatest opportunity that anyone could possibly hope for can be yours. duanwenw You don’t have to make a cash investment. You don’t even have to fill out an application form. This incredible opportunity can work for you no matter what your educational or professional background, no matter what your level of physical ability might be, duanwenw and no matter what skills you possess.

很可能任何人渴望拥有的绝好的机会将会是你的。你不必拿现金投资,甚至都不必填写什么书面申请。这个令人难以置信的绝好机遇会为你效劳,不管你的教育背景、专业背景是什么,不管你的身体状况如何,也不管你有什么样的技艺。

The opportunity in front of you is monly called "TODAY". This opportunity is full of power and has the potential to deliver whatever you desire. Your grand opportunity is here and now. It is in the precious, irreplaceable3 hours and moments which make up this day. Whatever the clock may read, today is just beginning. In front of you are 24 fresh and available hours until this time tomorrow, and there is so very much you can do with them. Today is an opportunity of the grandest proportions. No one, no matter how rich, famous, powerful or successful, duanwenw has an opportunity available to them with more potential than you have today.

摆在你面前的绝好的机会通常叫做"今天"。这个机会充满着力量,你渴望得到什么,它就可能带给你什么。你的绝好机会就在此时此地。它寄身于宝贵的、无法替代的组成今天的分分秒秒中。不管时钟的指标指向哪个地方,今天即是开始。在你面前的是24个新鲜的、伸手可及的小时,而且你可以利用它们来完成很多的事情。今天就是绝好的机会,而且是最足份额的。没有人,不管他多富有、多出名、多有能耐、多么成功,会比你在今天更有潜力去得到机会。

In fact, you have the very same day available to you as the most successful person alive —on the very same day. Seize it, live it, and make it into something great.

事实上,你与活着的最成功人士共享同一天。抓住它、过好它、把它变成奇迹。

　篇3：Each time something in our life ends

Each time something in our life ends, it creates room for a new experience.

人生之事每有终结,便会产生新的体验空间;而每一次新的体验空间都留存著一块踏脚石。

Within each new experience is a stepping-stone. Some are *** all stones and others are big ones. Some are fun and some are tiring, but with each passing day we learn why we are here, what our duty is, and why different people e in and out of our lives.

有的是碎石,有的是巨砾;有的情趣盎然,有的枯燥无味。然而,时日逝去,我们懂得了为何而生,责任何在,他人又因何出入我们的生活。

Each time a relationship ends or we leave a relationship, we must examine ourselves, our hearts and our souls. duanwenw What brought us to this person to begin with? How did we attract them into our lives? How did they bring us into their reality and why? Each step is part of the journey of finding out who we really are, why we were brought here, and why we go through pain sometimes.

一种关系要终结,或者我们要离弃一种关系之时,我们必须查问自身,剖析内心,细究灵魂。是什么使我们开始与此人有了瓜葛?我们是如何吸引他们走入我们的生活?他们又是如何把我们引入他们的现实生活?其原因何在呢?

We must first work on the inside and the outside will follow. Think about it. What is truly your life’s duty? Do everything you can to do it. It’s a journey. duanwenw Take the adventure.

人生的每一步都孕育在发现自我本原、探索人生由来、探究受苦之因的旅程之中。我们先要加强内在修养,然后外在形象也会随之改观。好好思考:人生的职责究竟是什么?竭尽全力去完成它。人生既然是一次旅程,那就大胆去探险吧。

You have gone through many rough periods in your life, and many wonderful times too. You have helped people through their rough periods. You know what to do.

你的人生经历了坎坷,也活出了精彩。你也助人度过了难关。你熟知你的使命。

You keep on getting right to the finish line and then you stop. Keep going this time. Cross that line. duanwenw You are deserving and capable. Sometimes if we just work on removing anger, everything else will flow.

你不断调整前进的方向,却在终点线上止步不前。这一次你不要止步不前,越过终点线吧。此举是值得的,你也是有能力去做到的。倘若我们能尽力消除心中怒气,万事皆迎刃而解。

You are loved, dear one. This is the beginning of a beautiful future. Someone loves you and will be there for you. Always remember that we are never alone!

亲爱的,众人皆爱你。这只是美好未来的开始。有人在爱着你,也会支援你的。时刻谨记:我们从不孤单!

The Fox and the Grapes

One hot summer's day a Fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch. "Just the thing to quench my thirst," quoth he. Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch. Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success. Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: "I am sure they are sour."

故事内容：

炎热的夏天里，一只狐貍在果园漫步 （One hot summer's day a Fox was strolling through an orchard），看到一串熟透的葡萄沿著藤蔓高挂在上 （till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch.）。「解渴就靠这个了。」他这麼说著 （"Just the thing to quench my thirst," quoth he）。退了几步之後，他往前又跑又跳的 （Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump），可惜没搆到那串葡萄 （and just missed the bunch），往後再退了几步，一、二、三，往上一跳 （Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up），还是没有构到那串葡萄 （but with no greater success.）。他试了又试，只希望吃口诱人的葡萄 （Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel），可最後还是放弃了（but at last had to give it up），最後离开，鼻子嗅了嗅说 （and walked away with his nose in the air, saying）：「葡萄太酸了 （"I am sure they are sour."）。」

含有哲理的英语小故事

　互相尊重是第一种美德，而必要的距离又是任何一种尊重的前提。一些优秀英语的哲理散文，我们可以多看看，多学习。希望对你有用。

英语哲理短文带翻译阅读篇一：并不是热爱跑步的人才能成为奔跑者

　The first time I ran, like really ran, was during middle school gym class. It took me 11 minutes and 47 seconds to finish a mile. I've been running ever since.

　我第一次跑步，那种真正的跑步，是在中学体育课的时候。我花了11分47秒跑完了1英里。自那以后，我一直在跑步。

　Running is the kind of thing where you put in the time and expect to see results, and let me be the first to tell you: It is supremely discouraging when you don't. It's discouraging when you run a five-mile race with your entire family and e in a solid 15 minutes behind everyone else, and it's discouraging when that time is no faster or slower than your five-mile time five years ago.

　跑步是一种你会投入时间并期待成效的运动。让我做第一个告诉你这个的人：你没有做到的时候，你会刚到非常沮丧。当你和所有家人一起来一场5英里赛跑却落后了每个人15分钟的时候，是十分让人沮丧的;当你跑完5英里的时间并没有比5年前更快或更慢的时候，也是十分让人沮丧的。

　And yet, my alarm is already set for 6 a.m. tomorrow, even though it's probably going to be rainy and definitely going to be cold and even though most of the time, I really hate running.

　但是，我已经把明天的闹钟设置为早晨6点钟了，哪怕可能会下雨且一定会变冷;哪怕大多数时间，我真的讨厌跑步。

　Don't ask me why. All I know is this: As much as I hate running, I love being a runner.

　不要问我原因。我所知道的一切就是：我喜欢成为一名奔跑者和我讨厌跑步的程度相同。

　There's some kind of camaraderie beeen people who spend more money each year on running shoes than on all their other shoes bined, and there's some fundamental similarity beeen people who can cross 10 miles without pausing.

　比起购买其他所有的鞋子，每年花更多的钱买跑鞋的人们之间有着某种友谊;那些不用暂停就能跑完10英里的人们之间也有着根本的相似性。

　On days that I run, I exert myself purely for exertion's sake. If you run too, you get why.

　在我跑步的日子里，我只不过为了努力而努力。如果你也跑步，你会懂的。

　When you're a runner, your people are the girls with hair elastics on their wrists and the boys with shorts shorter than yours. They might be better, faster or stronger than you, but you belong with them.

　当你做奔跑者的时候，你的同伴会是那些手腕上有用来扎头发的橡皮筋的女孩子们以及那些穿着比你裤子还短的短裤的男孩子们。他们也许比你更好、更快或者更强壮，但你和他们是一起的。

　It took me almost 10 years of plodding along at an 11-minute mile before I realized that I could call myself a runner, no matter how slow I go or how many races I lose.

　我花了将近20xx年时间才做到在11分钟内跑完1英里，后来我才意识到，我可以称自己为一名奔跑者，无论我跑得多慢、无论我输掉了几场比赛。

　I've laced up my shoes at least once a week since the first day I stepped foot on a track in middle school. Some weeks it's every day, some weeks it's not. Some days, I'll barely go more than a mile, and some days, I'll walk more than I jog. I may not have medals, but I have fresh air, time alone, and creaky knees and tight quads.

　自从我在中学踏上跑道的第一天起，我至少每周会束紧鞋带跑一次步。有些时候我那周的每天都绑紧鞋带去跑步，有些时候不是。有些日子里，我很少跑超过1英里的距离;有些日子里，我散步的次数会比慢跑多。我可能没有奖章，但是我能呼吸新鲜空气、拥有独处的时间并有吱吱作响的膝盖和结实的股四头肌。

　For me, that's enough. I run, so I am a runner.

　对我来说，那就足够了。我跑步，所以我是一名奔跑者。

英语哲理短文带翻译阅读篇二：当一个作家，书写自己的人生

　The gas station nearest my house happens to face a strip club. It is apparently a very successful strip club, as they could afford to install a LCD screen on their roof that might be visible from the Space Station. It's certainly visible from the gas station. At some point my eyes will drift up while pumping gas, and there will be a one-story image of a young woman in some stage of near-undress.

　离我家最近的加油站对面碰巧有一家脱衣舞夜总会。这家夜总的屋顶装了一个巨大的LED屏幕，说不定在太空上都看得见。能够支付这样的费用，看来经营得非常成功。不用说，在加油站也能看见那块屏幕。在加油的时候，我会不经意地往上看，一层楼高的屏幕上显示着一个几乎 *** 的少女。

　As I was getting some gas this morning, I wondered for the first time what a woman pumping gas thought when she looked at that screen. Though it would depend on the woman, I thought. A woman who had once been an exotic dancer herself would certainly look at that image differently than a Catholic nun.

　今天早上，我又来到这里加油，脑海中突然有一个问题挥之不去：一个女人来加油的时候看到那块屏幕会有什么想法呢?我觉得那要看她是个怎样的人。曾经当过脱衣舞者的女人和天主教的修女肯定会对那个图像有不同的看法。

　The image would look different to each of us. And when I say look different, I mean we would be seeing what amounts to a different image. For while the young woman's pose and attire that I see are identical to the pose and attire that every other man, woman, and child sees, the story that image tells me is told uniquely by me, by my own ideas about women and advertising and maybe even gas stations.

　那张图像对每个人来说都是不一样的，这个不一样是指我们会产生不一样的想法。虽然那个少女的姿势打扮在每一个男人、女人、小孩眼中都是一样的，但是我在那图像中捕捉到的故事是独一无二的，是由我自身对女人、广告、甚至是加油站的想法创造的。

　The image is nothing; the story is everything. Good to remember if you're a writer. Writers don't report the facts. The fact that there is a strip club with a giant LCD screen blazing near-nudity for all to see means nothing in reality. All that ever matters is what a person believes when they look upon it. What a person believes is the terrain of the storyteller.

　图像本身什么都不是，故事才是一切。如果你是个作家，你会知道作家并不是描写现实。那儿有一家脱衣舞夜总会，屋顶上有一块巨大的LED屏幕，屏幕上显示着几近的少女，这是现实，没有意义的现实。真正有意义的是人看到这个景象时萌生的想法，人的思想是创作故事的土壤。

　And by the way, it is the only terrain of the storyteller. Storytellers, whether they are conscious of it or not, wish to alter reality. We are not so interested in changing the image that flashes on the great LCD screen of the world. Mostly that's beyond our control. We could march, or protest, or fill out petitions to get the screen changed, but it's faster, ultimately, to tell ourselves a story about what we see there.

　而且，思想是创作故事的唯一土壤。讲故事的人会有意无意地想去改变现实。我们不是想把现实中大屏幕上惹眼的图像换掉，大多数情况下我们都是有心无力。我们当然可以，写信请愿把那屏幕换掉，但说到底，更快捷的办法是给自己讲个跟眼前的事物有关的故事。

　I sometimes fet I have to power to change that story. My mind drifts as idly from thought to thought as my eyes drift from gas pump to pinup. What occurs in this exchange beeen the world I look upon and the story I tell can happen so fast, can be so habitual, that I can lose track of who is telling the story I am hearing. The moment I remember, the moment I see my mind as a blank page on which to write my life, I am the author once more, and my life is mine again.

　有时候我会忘记自己有改变故事的能力。我的视线四处游动，从汽油管飘忽到半裸少女，我的思维也跟着漫不经心地跳跃。把眼前的事实创作成的自己故事，这就像我的习惯一样，一眨眼的功夫，我已经分不清我到底是在创作故事，还是成为了故事的主人公。等我回过神来的时候，等我空白的脑海重新回想起自己生活的时候，我又重新成为故事的作者，重新回到了自己的生活中。

英语哲理短文带翻译阅读篇三：善有善报，恶有恶报

　A woman baked chapatti for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, es back to you!”

　一个女人给家人烤薄饼，还留出一个给饥肠辘辘的路人。她总是把留出的那个放在窗台上，每天都有一个驼背的人来拿走薄饼。他没说过一句“谢谢”，反而总是边走边咕哝着：“善有善报，恶有恶报!”

　The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, she decided to do away with him. She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him!

　女人很生气，她自言自语地说：“这个驼背人从没说过谢谢，却每天都重复这句话，是什么意思呀?”一天，她决定弄死他，就在为他准备的薄饼上下了毒。

　As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. “What is this I am doing?” she said. Immediately, she threw the chapatti into the fire, prepared another one. As usual, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and muttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, es back to you!”

　她正要把饼放在窗台上，手就开始颤抖了，她说：“我在做什么?”她马上把饼扔进了火里，重新做了一张。一切照旧，驼背人来了，拿起薄饼，咕哝着：“善有善报，恶有恶报!”

　Every day, as the woman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune.

　每天女人把饼放窗台上时都为去远方赚钱的儿子祈祷。

　That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. He was hungry and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, I was so famished that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunchback passed by. He was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. He said, “Your need is greater than mine!”

　那天晚上，有人敲门，她打开门惊讶地发现儿子站在门口，他很饿很虚弱。一看见妈妈他就说：“妈妈，我能回来真是奇迹。离家还有一英里远的时候，我太饿了走不动了。我差点儿就死了，但就在那时一个老驼背人路过，他很善良给了我一整张饼。他说：‘你比我更需要它’。”

　She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son!

　她想起了那天早上做的有毒的饼，要不是她把饼烧了，就会被她儿子吃了!

　It was then that she realized the significance of the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, es back to you!” Do good and don’t ever stop doing good, even if it is not appreciated at that time.

　那时她才意识到这句话的重要性：“善有善报，恶有恶报!”多行善举，即使当时不被人感激也要坚持下去。

跪求，急需！！！一天之内要有啊！！！一篇英语短文：富有哲理的幽默的故事

以下是一篇含有哲理的英语小故事：?

The Wise Old Man and the River

Once upon a time, there was a wise old man who lived in a small village by the river. One day, a young man came to him and said, "Old man, I want to be wise like you. Can you teach me your secrets?"

The wise old man looked at him and said, "Sure, but first, let's take a walk by the river."

They walked in silence for a while until they came to the river. The wise old man suddenly pushed the young man into the river and held him under the water.?

The young man struggled and fought to get free, but the old man held him firmly. Just when he was about to pass out, the old man pulled him out of the river and helped him catch his breath.

The young man was furious and demanded an explanation. The old man calmly replied, "When you were under the water, what did you want more than anything else?"?

"I wanted to breathe!" the young man gasped.

The old man nodded and said, "That's the secret to wisdom. When you want to be wise as much as you wanted to breathe, then you will be."

The young man was humbled and realized that wisdom was not something that could be learned overnight, but a lifelong pursuit.?

Moral of the story: Wisdom cannot be taught, but it can be pursued. It takes patience, perseverance, and a deep desire to learn

从前，有一个智慧老人住在河边的一个小村庄里。一天，一个年轻人来找他，说：“老人，我想像你一样聪明。你能教我你的秘诀吗？”

智慧老人看着他，说：“好吧，但首先，让我们去河边散步。”

他们默默地走了一会儿，直到来到了河边。智慧老人突然把年轻人推进了河里，并把他按在水下。

年轻人挣扎着想挣脱，但老人却抓住他。就在他快要晕过去的时候，老人把他从河里拉了上来，帮助他呼吸。

年轻人很生气，要求解释。智慧老人平静地回答道：“当你在水下的时候，你最想要什么？”

“我想要呼吸！”年轻人喘息着说。

老人点了点头，说：“这就是智慧的秘密。当你像渴望呼吸一样渴望智慧时，你就会拥有智慧。”

年轻人感到羞愧，意识到智慧不是一夜之间就能学会的，而是一个终身追求的过程。

寓意：智慧不能被教授，但可以追求。这需要耐心、毅力和深刻的学习愿望。

谁能帮我写个英语的有人生哲理的小故事

按你的要求，奉献一篇关于人生的真实的哲理故事，希望有帮助——

Sometimes your biggest weakness can become your biggest strength. Take, for example, the story of one girl who decided to study judo[柔道] despite the fact that she had lost her left arm in a car accident.

The girl began lessons with an old Japanese judo instructor. The girl was doing well. So she couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the instructor had taught her only one move.

"Instructor," the girl finally said, "Shouldn't I be learning more moves?"

"This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the instructor replied.

Not quite understanding, but believing in her teacher, the girl kept training.

Several months later, the instructor took the girl to her first tournament[比赛]. Surprising herself, the girl easily won her first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, her opponent became impatient and charged. The girl deftly[巧妙的] used her one move to win the match. Still amazed by her success, the girl was now in the finals.

This time, her opponent was bigger, stronger and more experienced. For a while, the girl appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the girl might get hurt, the referee[裁判] called a time-out. She was about to stop the match when the instructor intervened.

"No," the instructor insisted, "Let her continue."

Soon after the match resumed, her opponent made a critical mistake: she dropped her guard. Instantly, the girl used her move to pin her opponent. The girl had won the match and the tournament. She was the champion.

On the way home, the girl and her teacher reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the girl summoned the courage to ask what was really on her mind.

"Instructor, how did I win the tournament with only one move?"

"You won for two reasons," the teacher answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm."

The girl's biggest weakness had become her biggest strength.

有的时候，你的软弱之处反而拥有强大的力量。比如我们下面要讲的这个故事：一位在车祸中丧失了左臂的小女孩，决定去学习柔道。

小女孩向一位年长的日本老师学校柔道。小女孩学习进展不错，而三个月过去了，老师却只是重复的教授她一个动作，这使得她很迷惑不解。

“老师，”女孩终于忍不住问，“能不能再多教我一些动作？”

老师回答说：“你只要把这个动作学好就可以了。”

尽管女孩并不明白老师的用意，不过她相信老师的话，继续努力练习。

几个月过去了，老师决定带她去参加一次竞赛。令女孩惊讶的是，她轻松地击败了头两个对手。第三个对手虽然比较强悍，但一番苦战后，对手就开始心浮气躁。女孩巧妙的使用她唯一的一招赢得了比赛。女孩自己虽感到不可思议，但她却一步步进入的决赛。

这一次，她的对手更高大强壮，而且经验丰富。女孩在一些时候甚至显露出败相，由于害怕女孩受伤，裁判宣布暂停比赛。正当她准备下场时，教练却制止了她。

“让她继续比赛。”教练坚持道。

比赛恢复后，她的对手犯了一个严重的错误：她放松了自己的防卫。女孩立即用她那一招封住了对手。女孩终于赢得了这场比赛，也成为了这次竞赛的冠军。

回家的路上，女孩和老师回顾了比赛的每个环节，女孩鼓起勇气问老师一个困惑已久的问题。

“教练，为什么我用一个招式就赢得了这场比赛？”

老师回答她说：“有两个原因：一、我教你的招式是柔道中最难的一个动作，而你把它掌握的很精通；二、对手想要破解这个招式只有一个动作，就是抓住你的左手。”

这个女孩最软弱的地方，竟然成了她致胜的关键所在。

我们每个人都有软弱的地方，但上天总在我们的软弱上，给我们以意想不到的力量。只要善于利用命运给我们的一切，我们也能像这个女孩一般，在自己的软弱上，得到上天的另一种祝福。

笑对失败 For the "failure" of the word, I do not think we are strange. After all, no one failed, but also on more than one occasion. However, we should be the attitude of how to deal with failure? Here, I want to say is: Laughter on the failure!

Do not know if you have never heard such a story: The United States, a Hollywood film star, also has been the United States, "and Time magazine," the "great American," the ranks of successful people - but also from a series of setbacks and failures to get out of of. His poor origin. Student days, he's very bad results. To make matters worse, he is not only a natural-born left-handed, but also "reading disorder", to be considered as mental retardation. In the fledgling, he would be black because of the skin, do not be negative ...... handsome but he is still confident of his family, said: "Looking at it, not ten years, I will become a Hollywood the star! "but it is not plain sailing: the first" debut "is just a flash appeared and no small role in a penny fee. Although they subsequently appeared in four films, and films which he also starred in the leading role, but the plot of the film due to poor performances and his immature and have failed ... ...

However, all this did not knock him. A continual process of reflection and improvement of his own, and finally in 1986 a U.S. Navy fighter pilots describe the film - "Top Gun" in the early success.

I think we all know do not think I said that is Hollywood superstar Tom - Cruz.

In fact, the successes and failures as a cycle between the two are closely related, there will be a successful failure.

Therefore, when we failed, the need not pessimistic. Not only that, we may be able to lift the spirits of the laugh! Because I have always think: God is a girl. And, God is not only a gril, but also a headstrong girl. Yes, she likes to make things difficult for our people to open such a joke. And we need to do is to withstand the test. Although we will its failures, but we still have to fight on despite repeated setbacks. To believe that God is fair, a joke is only temporary, you will eventually succeed!

In fact, failure is often a person, but is also often successful. All this is like the spring: Spring to Spring will come again and spend another grateful to the Fair ... ... when the failure of a little nearer, a little bit away from the success, we should believe that as long as the persistent efforts to climb, the success in the near will definitely come again, after ... ...

To remember: Even if a fall should be proud to smile!

What is also hesitant? Let us laugh together on the failure of the successful Meet it!

对于“失败”这个词，我想大家都不会对此感到陌生。毕竟，谁都失败过，而且还不止一次。但是，我们应该以怎样的态度来面对失败呢？在这里，我想说的是：笑对失败！　不知道大家有没有听过这样一个故事：美国有一位好莱坞的影视巨星，还曾被美果《时代周刊》列入“美国伟人”行列的成功人士——却也是从一连串的挫折和失败中走出来的。他出身贫寒。学生时代，他的成绩很糟糕。更糟糕的是，他不但是个天生的左撇子，而且还有“阅读障碍症”，被人视为智力低下。在刚出道时，他便因皮肤黑、不英俊而被否定......但他仍自信满满，对他的家人说：“看着吧，不出十年，我一定会成为好莱坞的巨星！”但后来却并不是一帆风顺：第一次的“处子秀”仅仅是出演一个一闪而过且没有一分钱片酬的小角色。其后虽然又出演了4部影片，并且其中有部**他还出演了主角，但却因**的情节不佳和他表演的稚嫩而均告失败……　但是，这一切的一切并未将他击倒。他不断反思和改进自己，终于在1986年的一部描写美国海军战斗机飞行员的影片——《壮志凌云》中初获成功。　我想，不用我说大家早已想到，这个人就是美国好莱坞巨星汤姆-克鲁斯。　其实，成功和失败就像是一种轮回，二者之间有着紧密的关联，有成功就会有失败。　因此，当我们遭遇失败时，大可不必悲观。不仅如此，我们大可以开怀的笑！因为，我一直都认为：God is a girl。并且，God不仅是一个gril，而且还是一个任性的girl。是的，她喜欢和我们开这种刁难人的玩笑。而我们要做的，就是经受住考验。纵然我们会屡战屡败，但我们依然要屡败屡战。要相信上帝是公平的，玩笑只是暂时的，你终究会获得成功！　其实，一个人失败是经常的，但成功也是常有的。这一切就好比春暖花开：春去春会再来，花谢花会再开……当失败一点点逼近，成功一点点远离时，我们都应该相信，只要坚持不懈的努力下去，成功在不久之后必然会再次降临……　要记住：就算跌倒也要豪迈地笑！　还犹豫什么呢？让我们一起来笑对失败，笑迎成功吧！

The Fox and the Grapes

One hot summer's day a Fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch. "Just the thing to quench my thirst," quoth he. Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch. Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success. Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: "I am sure they are sour."
