You can't learn to swim by sitting in a room
and reading books about swimming skills.
In order to be a good swimmer;
You've got to conquer your fear,
You've got to survive and suck in water and yell for help.
You've got to lose face many times before you can make it.
You've got to practice again and again for years
until you can harmonize every part of your body and mind.
用游泳来比喻学英语是最恰当不过的了。
学游泳,你总不能只坐在房间里读游泳技能方面的书吧。
要成为一个游泳健将:你必须克服恐惧心理,
要在水中存活、呛水和呼吸。
在你还不能做到时,你必须无数次的丢脸,长年累月不停的操练,
直到你能使身体的各部位和思想协调一致。 Whatever I have tried to do in life,
I have tried with all my heart to do it well.
Whatever I have devoted myself to,
I have devoted myself completely.
我在生活中尝试做的任何一件事,
我都是全身心地投入去做的。
无论做什么,我都奉献了我的全部。 How come one person moves
forward with one success after another,
and yet some are still getting ready?
How come one man goes through life crossing
are hurdle after an other,
accomplishing his goals
while another struggles and gets nowhere?
为什么有人勇往直前,成就不断;而有些人却原地踏步,停滞不前?
为什么有人跨越障碍,实现目标;而其他人却挣扎求存,一事无成? We must sow before we reap.
Sowing takes place before reaping.
We must give before we get.
We cannnot expect the fireplace to give us heat
before we put in the fuel.
我们必须先播种再收割,
播种在收割之前。
我们必须先给予再索取,
我们不能在放入燃料前就希望得到热量。 A careless word may kindle strife;
a cruel word may wreck a life;
a timely word may level stress;
a loving word may heal and bless.
无心快语可能引发争执,
无情之词可能折损生命,
适时温语可能消弭压力,
而关爱之声可能治愈心灵。
Always put yourself in the other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably hurts the person too.
要设身处地的为别人着想,
如果一双鞋你穿着夹脚,
别人的感觉可能也一样。 Real beauty comes from learning, growing, and loving in the ways of life. That is the Art of Life. You can learn slowly, and sometimes painfully, by just waiting for life to happen to you. Or you can choose to accelerate your growth and intentionally devour life and all it offers. You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today.
真正的美丽源于生命里的学习、成长和热爱。这就是生命的艺术。你可以只听天由命, 慢慢地学,有时候或许会很痛苦。又或许你可以选择加速自己的成长,故意地挥霍生活及其提供的一切。你就是手握今日之刷描绘自己未来的艺术家。 Remember, you learn to swim by swimming.
You learn to dance by dancing.
You learn to drive by driving.
You learn to play the piano by playing.
So you can only learn to speak English
by speaking.
记住,你只是在游泳中学游泳;
在跳舞中学跳舞;
在驾驶中学开车;
在弹奏中学钢琴。
所以,你只能在讲英语中学怎么说英语。 The fisher who draws in his net too soon,]
Won't have any fish to sell.
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
Won't learn any lessons well.
If you would habe your learning stay,
Be patient: don't learn too fast.
The man who travels a mile each day,
May get round the world at last.
收网太快的渔人打不到鱼么卖,
合书太快的孩子学不好功课,
如果能让你的学业放缓,
耐心些,不要学得太快。
每日积累跬步的人,最终将环游世界。 great posting
I'll put in my pocket and read and try to memorize all these words
thanks! Care more than others.
Think wise.
Risk more than others.
Think safe.
Dream more than others.
Think practical.
Expect more than others.
Think possible.
比别人多些关爱,
想到理智。
比别人多些冒险,
想到安全。
比别人多些梦想,
想到现实。
比别人多些期盼,
想到可能。 Education makes a person easy to lead
but difficult to drive,
easy to govern
but impossible to enslave.
教育使人易于领导却难以驾驭,
易于管理却不能奴役。 The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
The opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.
爱的反面不是恨,而是冷漠。
美的反面不是丑,而是冷漠。
信仰的反面不是背叛,而是冷漠。
生命的反面不是死亡,而是冷漠。 Education is the transmission of civilization.
Education is the chief defence of nations.
Education is
a progressive discovery of ignorance.
Education does not mean teaching people
to know what they do not know.
It means
teaching them to behave as the do not behave.
教育是文明的传播,
教育是国家的主要防护,
教育是探索无知的进程,
教育不是要填满一个桶,而是要点燃一盏灯,
教育不是要教人们知道他们所不知的事,
而是要教会他们用他们所不会的方式处事。 Schools are a fountain of knowledge.
Some students come to drink.
Some to sip.
Others just to gargle.
学校是知识的喷泉。
有些学生来饮水。
有些来湿下嘴。
其他的只是来漱口。 Give a man a fish,
and you feed him for the day.
Teach him how to fish,
and you feed him for a lifetime.
授人以鱼,
当日满足。
授人以渔, Yesterday when I was sad and was lonely.
You showed me the way to leave the past
and all it's tears behind me.
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today.
Since I've thrown my sadness away.
昨天,当我们忧伤孤独的时候,
你给我指明道路,
令我将过去和泪水远远抛在身后。
明天会更好,
因为我已抛却我的烦恼。 I like the teacher who has his own personality
and doesn't hide it from the students.
I like the teacher who has lots of knowledge,
not only of his subject.
I like the teacher
who makes his lessons interesting
so I don't fall asleep in them.
I like the teacher
who helps rather than shouts.
I like the teacher
who does not just give me something to drink
but makes me feel thirsty.
我喜欢拥有独特个性,
而从不把它向学生隐藏的老师。
我喜欢知识渊博,
而不局限于自己专业的老师。
我喜欢讲课风趣,
使我不至于在课堂上昏昏欲睡的老师。
我喜欢给与学生帮助而不是大声斥责的老师。
我喜欢不仅仅给我喝的,
更使我觉得渴的老师。 The Language of Music
A painter hangs his or her finished pictures on a wall, and everyone can see it .A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities ,for the composer is utterly dependent on them.A student of music needs as long as arduous a training to became a performer as a medical student needs to become a dortor. Most training is concerned with technique ,for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer.Singers practice breathing every day, as their vocal chords would be inadequate without controlled muscular support. String players practice moving the fingers of the left hand up and down,while drawing the bow to and fro with the right arm-two entirely different movements.
Singers and instruments have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune.Pianists are sqared this particular anxiety,for the notes are already there.waiting for them ,and it is the piano tuner's responsibilty to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties,the hammers that hit the string have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion, and each overlapping tone has to sound clear.
This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors ,they have to learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound,and they have to aim at controlling these sound with fanatical bet selfness authority.
Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century.
译文:
画家将已完成的作品挂在墙上,每个人都可以观赏到。作曲家写完了一部作品,要由演奏者将其演奏出来,其他人才能得以欣赏。因为作曲家是如此完全地依赖于职业歌手或职业演奏者,所以职业歌手或演奏者肩上的担子可谓不轻。一名音乐系学生要想成为一名表演者需要经过长期、严格的训练,就象一名医科学生要成为一名医生一样。绝大多数的训练是技巧性的。音乐家们控制肌肉的熟练程度,必须达到与运动员或巴蕾舞演员相当的水平。歌手们每天都练习发声,因为如果不能有效地控制肌肉的话,他们的声袋将不能满足演唱的要求。弦乐器的演奏者练习的则是当左手的手指上下滑动的同时右手能够前后拉动琴弓--两个截然不同的动作。
歌手和乐器演奏者必须使所有的音符完全相同协调。钢琴家们则不用操这份心,因为每个音符都已在那里等待着他们了。给钢琴调音是调音师的职责。但调音师们也有他们的难处:他们必须耐心地调理敲击琴弦的音锤,不能让音锤发出的声音象是打击乐器,而且每个交叠的音都必须要清晰。
如何获得清晰结构的乐章是实习指挥们所面临的难题:他们必须学会了解音乐中的每一个音节及其发音之道。他们还必须积极并客观的控制这些音符。
单纯的技巧没有任何用处,除非是要和音乐方面的知识和悟性结合起来。伟大的艺术家之所以伟大是在于他们对音乐语言驾轻就熟,以致于可以满意表演出写于任何时代的作品。
