1Thesethingscanneverdie.这些美好不会消逝。Thetimidhandstretchedforthtoaid羞怯地伸出援助的手，Abrotherinhisneed,在你的弟兄需要的时候，Akindlywordingrief'sdarkhour伤恸、困难的时候，一句亲切的话Thatprovesafriendindeed;就足以证明朋友的真心；Thepleaformercysoftlybreathed,轻声地乞求怜悯，Whenjusticethreatensnigh,在审判临近的时候，Thesorrowofacontriteheart-懊悔的心有一种伤感--Thesethingsshallneverdie.这些美好不会消逝。Letnothingpassforeveryhand在人间传递温情Mustfindsomeworktodo;尽你所能地去做；Losenotachancetowakenlove-别错失去了唤醒爱的良机-----Befirm,andjust,andtrue;为人要坚定，正直，忠诚；Soshallalightthatcannotfade因此上方照耀着你的那道光芒Beamontheefromonhigh.就不会消失。Andangelvoicessaytothee---你将听到天使的声音在说-----2.Insistonyourself;neverimitate.Yourowngiftyoucanpresenteverymomentwiththecumulativeforceofawholelife'scultivation;butoftheadoptedtalentofanotheryouhaveonlyanextemporaneoushalfpossession.坚持自己，决不要模仿。你自己的天赋可以随时以自己毕生积累的素质修养来展示；但模仿他人的才华，你只能暂时地、部分地占用。3.FirstLoveShewasmyfirstandfoolishlove.Inthehalf-lightofthemorningIlayawakewaitingforherquiet,almostsilentfeettocomedownthehallway,forherscent—acuriousmixtureofhoneyandpeach—topartthethickairoutsidemyroomfilledwiththelonelysmellsofyoungmenlivingawayfromhome.Shewouldpauseoutsidemydoorforamomenttoputonherslippersbeforeclimbingthetwostepsdownintothekitchen,andmyfoolishimaginationwouldswellwiththeshadowysilhouetteofherlingeringbymydoor,aphantommorerealthananythingIcouldhaveseenwithmyopeneyes.Everymorning,everymorning,Iwaitedlikethat,forthecirclesofazureandgoldandauburntogatherlikecloudsinsidemyclosedeyelidsasIfeltherstepsdownthehallwayovermybody,andforthecloudstoburstsuddenlyandrevealherlargeandlimpideyesframedwith

7＂我的名字传遍世界，每个人都争相赞颂，有一阵子好像让我心满足．可那是多么短暂的一阵子啊！随之而来的是妒忌；然后是诋毁；然后是憎恶；然后是迫害．之后是嘲讽，从些一切开始步入完结．最后便是怜悯，这也是我的名声的葬礼．啊，名声原来是这般苦涩和痛苦！＂4＂Chooseyetagain."Itwasthefairy'svoice."Twogiftsremain.Anddonotdespair.Inthebeginingtherewasbutonethatwasprecious,anditisstillhere."Wealth-whichispower!Howblindiwas!"saidtheman."Now,atlast,lifewillbeworththeliving.Iwillspend.squander.Thesemockersanddespiserswillcrawlinthedirtbeforeme,andiwillfeedmyhungryheartwiththeirenvy,Iwillhaveallluxuries,alljoys,allenchant-timesofthespiritIwillbuy,buy,buy!Ihavelostmuchtime,andchosenbadlyheretofore,butletthatpass;Iwasignorantthen,andcouldbuttakeforbestwhatseemedso."Threeshortyearswentby,andadaycamewhenthemansatshiveringinameangarret;andhewasgauntandwanandhollow-eyed,andclothedinrags;andhewasgnawingadrycrustandmumbling:"Cursealltheworld'sgiftsformockeriesandgildedlies!Andmiscalled,everyone,Theyarenotgifts,butmerelylendings.Pleasure.Love,Fame.Riches:theyarebuttemporarydisguisesforlastingrealities-Pain,Grief,Shame,Poverty.Thefairysaidtrue;inallherstoretherewasbutonegiftwhichwasprecious,onlyonethatwasnotvalueless,Howpoorandcheapandmeaniknowthoseothersnowtobe,Bringit!Iamweary.Iwouldrest."＂不过你还可以重新现挑一次．＂仙女的声音再度响起．＂还剩下两份礼物．不要灰心丧气，从一开始就只有一份是宝贵的，而现在它还在那里啊．＂＂财富－－财富就是力量！我过去多盲目啊！＂他说．＂现在，终于，我的生命将要变得有意义．我要纵情欢度此生，我要挥霍我的人生．那些对我冷嘲热讽，轻蔑诋毁我的人将要在我面前的泥土里挣扎，而我空乏的心也将因为他们的妒忌而得到满足．我将要享尽荣华富贵，所有欢乐和所有销魂的时光．我要买，买！以前我做错了选择，失去了许多时间，就让它过去吧；当时我很无知，我只能选我觉得最好的东西．短短的三年又过去了．到了这么一天，这个人蜷缩在一个简陋的小阁楼里，古瘦如柴，苍白无力，双眼深陷，身上裹着碎布衣衫，浑身颤抖不停．他一边啃着一块干面包皮，一边咕哝着：＂该死的礼物，都是为了让我受人嘲笑和欺诈！每一样都叫错了！它们都不是礼物，根本只是租借品！快乐，爱情，名声还有财富－都只不过是长久现实的暂时伪装－它们其实是永远的痛苦，悲哀，耻辱和贫穷！那个仙女说的没错啊，她所有的东西里只有一样是珍贵的，只有那么一样不是毫无价值的．我现在才明白，其它礼物是多么低贱与卑劣！把它带来吧－那真正宝贵的礼物！我累了，我想休息了．

14死亡，老年，不过是空话，毫无意义；我们听了，只耳边风，全不放在心上。这些事，别人也许经历过，或者可能要承受，但是我们自己，“在灵符护佑下度日”，对于诸如此类脆弱的念头，统统付之轻蔑的一笑。像是刚刚走上愉快的旅程，极目远眺——向远方的美景欢呼！此时，但觉好风光应接不暇，而且，前程更有美不胜收的新鲜景致。在这生活的开端，我们听任自己的志趣驰骋，放手给它们一切满足的机会。到此为止，我们还没有碰上过什么障碍，也没有感觉到什么疲惫，因此觉得还可以一直这样向前走去，直到永远。我们看到四周一派新天地——生机盎然，变动不居，日新月异；我们觉得自己活力充盈，精神饱满，可与宇宙并驾齐驱。而且，眼前也无任何迹象可以证明，在大自然的发展过程中，我们自己也会落伍，衰老，进入坟墓。由于年轻人天真单纯，可以说是茫然无知，因而将自己跟大自然划上等号；并且，由于经验少而感情盛，误以为自己也能和大自然一样永世长存。我们一厢情愿，痴心妄想，竟把自己在世上的暂时栖身，当作千古不变、万事长存的结合，好像没有冷淡、争执、离别的密月。像婴儿带着微笑入睡，我们躺在用自己编织成的摇篮里，让大千世界的万籁之声催哄我们安然入梦；我们急切切，兴冲冲地畅饮生命之杯，怎么也不会饮干，反而好像永远是满满欲溢；森罗万象纷至沓来，各种欲望随之而生，使我们腾不出工夫想死亡。11.假如我没有了诚信TheImportanceofBeingHonest假如没了诚信，我一天也不会快乐InthebusycityofNewYork,suchanastonishingthingthateverhappened.在繁华的纽约，曾经发生了这样一件震撼人心的事情。OnaFridaynight,apooryoungartiststoodatthegateofthesubwaystation,playinghisviolin.Thoughthemusicwasgreat,peoplewerequicklygoinghomefortheweekend.Inthiscase,manyofthemsloweddowntheirpacesandputsomemoneyintothehatoftheyoungman.星期五的傍晚，一个贫穷的年轻艺人仍然像往常一样站在地铁站门口，专心致志地拉着他的小提琴。琴声优美动听，虽然人们都急急忙忙地赶着回家过周末，但还是有很多人情不自禁的放慢了脚步，时不时地会有一些人在年轻艺人跟前的礼帽里放一些钱。Thenextday,theyoungartistcametothegateofthesubwaystation,andputhishatonthegroundgracefully.Differentthanthedaybefore,hetookoutalargepieceofpaperandlaiditonthegroundandputsomestonesonit.Thenheadjustedtheviolinandbeganplaying.Itseemedmorepleasanttolistento.第二天黄昏，年轻的艺人又像往常一样准时来到地铁门口，把他的礼帽摘下来很优雅地放在地上。和以往不同的是，他还从包里拿出一张大纸，然后很认真地铺在地上，四周还用自备的小石块压上。做完这一切以后，他调试好小提琴，又开始了演奏，声音似乎比以前更动听更悠扬。

15Beforelong,theyoungviolinistwassurroundedwithpeople,whowereallattractedbythewordsonthatpaper.Itsaid,"Lastnight,agentlemannamedGeorgeSangputanimportantthingintomyhatbymistaken.Pleasecometoclaimitsoon."不久，年轻的小提琴手周围站满了人，人们都被铺在地上的那张大纸上的字吸引了，有的人还踮起脚尖看。上面写着：“昨天傍晚，有一位叫乔治-桑的先生错将一份很重要的东西放在我的礼帽里，请您速来认领。”Seeingthis,itcausedagreatexcitementandpeoplewonderedwhatitcouldbe.Afterabouthalfanhour,amiddle-agedmanranthereinahurryandrushedthroughthecrowdtotheviolinistandgrabbedhisshouldersandsaid,"Yes,it'syou.Youdidcomehere.Iknewthatyou'reanhonestmanandwouldcertainlycomehere."见此情景，人群之间引起一阵骚动，都想知道这是一份什么样的东西。过了半小时左右，一位中年男人急急忙忙跑过来，拨开人群就冲到小提琴手面前，抓住他的肩膀语无伦次的说：“啊！是您呀，您真的来了，我就知道您是个诚实的人，您一定会来的。”Theyoungviolinistaskedcalmly,"AreyouMr.GeorgeSang?"年轻的小提琴手冷静地问：“您是乔治-桑先生吗？”Themannodded.Theviolinistasked,"Didyoulosesomething?"那人连忙点头。小提琴手又问：“您遗落了什么东西吗？”"Lottery.It'slottery,"saidtheman.那位先生说：“奖票，奖票”。TheviolinisttookoutalotteryticketonwhichGeorgeSang'snamewasseen."Isit?"heasked.小提琴手于是掏出一张奖票，上面还醒目地写着乔治-桑，小提琴手举着彩票问：“是这个吗？”Georgenoddedpromptlyandseizedthelotteryticketandkissedit,thenhedancedwiththeviolinist.乔治-桑迅速地点点头，抢过奖票吻了一下，然后又抱着小提琴手在地上跳起了舞。Thestoryturnedouttobethis:GeorgeSangisanofficeclerk.Heboughtalotteryticketissuedbyabankafewdaysago.Theawardsopenedyesterdayandhewonaprizeof$500,000.Sohefeltveryhappyafterworkandfeltthemusicwassowonderful,thathetookout50dollarsandputinthehat.Howeverthelotteryticketwasalsothrownin.TheviolinistwasastudentatanArtsCollegeandhadplannedtoattendadvancedstudiesinVienna.Hehadbookedtheticketandwouldflythatmorning.Howeverwhenhewascleaninguphefoundthelotteryticket.Thinkingthattheownerwouldreturntolookforit,hecancelledtheflightandcamebacktowherehewasgiventhelotteryticket.原来事情是这样的，乔治-桑是一家公司的小职员，他前些日子买了一张一家银行发行的奖票，昨天上午开奖，他中了50万美元的奖金。昨天下班，他心情很好，觉得音乐也特别美妙，于是就从钱包里掏出50

16美元，放在了礼帽里，可是不小心把奖票也扔了进去。小提琴手是一名艺术学院的学生，本来打算去维也纳进修，已经定好了机票，时间就在今天上午，可是他昨天整理东西时发现了这张奖票，想到失主会来找，于是今天就退掉了机票，又准时来到这里。Latersomeoneaskedtheviolinist:"Atthattimeyouwereinneededtopaythetuitionfeeandyouhadtoplaytheviolininthesubwaystationeverydaytomakethemoney.Thenwhydidn'tyoutakethelotteryticketforyourself?"后来，有人问小提琴手：“你当时那么需要一笔学费，为了赚够这笔学费，你不得不每天到地铁站拉提琴。那你为什么不把那50万元的奖票留下呢？”Theviolinistsaid,"AlthoughIdon'thavemuchmoney,Ilivehappily;butifIlosehonestyIwon'tbehappyforever."小提琴手说：“虽然我没钱，但我活得很快乐；假如我没了诚信，我一天也不会快乐。”Throughourlives,wecangainalotandlosesomuch.Butbeinghonestshouldalwaysbewithus.Ifwebearourselvesinadeceptiveanddishonestway,wemaysucceedtemporarily.However,fromthelong-termview,wewillbealoser.Suchkindofpeoplearejustlikethewateronthemountain.Itstandshighabovethemassesatthebeginning,butgraduallyitcomesdowninchbyinchandlosesthechanceofgoingup.在人的一生中，我们会得到许多，也会失去许多，但守信用却应是始终陪伴我们的。如果以虚伪、不诚实的方式为人处世，也许能获得暂时的“成功”，但从长远看，他最终是个失败者。这种人就像山上的水，刚开始的时候，是高高在上，但逐渐逐渐地它就越来越下降，再没有一个上升的机会。12.友谊的颜色Onceuponatimethecolorsoftheworldstartedtoquarrel.Allclaimedthattheywerethebest.Themostimportant.Themostuseful.Thefavorite.Greensaid：“ClearlyIamthemostimportant.Iamthesignoflifeandofhope.Iwaschosenforgrass，treesandleaves.Withoutme，allanimalswoulddie.LookoverthecountrysideandyouwillseethatIaminthemajority.”Blueinterrupted：“Youonlythinkabouttheearth，butconsidertheskyandthesea.Itisthewaterthatisthebasisoflifeanddrawnupbythecloudsfromthedeepsea.Theskygivesspaceandpeaceandserenity.Withoutmypeace，youwouldallbenothing.”Yellowchuckled：
