美文推薦詞篇一：優(yōu)秀文章推薦
推薦文章：《一生最愛你》
文章出處：《時文選粹》
推薦理由：
這篇文章以姐姐為第一人稱，按時間順序將弟弟從八歲起為姐姐所做的一次又一次“犧牲”：替姐姐承擔責任被父親打罵，省吃儉用給姐姐買“城里姑娘都戴”的發(fā)卡，為姐姐著想甘心做個辛苦的修理工……作者用細膩的文筆表現了姐弟二人間濃濃的親情。
文章主旨是“親情”。“親情”向來是一個寬泛的話題，作者舉了大量事例使文章顯得充實厚重。并選材精湛，結構新穎，中心明確，條理清楚。雖然篇幅較長，但絲毫沒有啰嗦拖沓之感。全文沒有大片華麗的辭藻，各種浮夸的修辭，所用詞語樸實無華，簡單準確，卻字字句句富有極強的感染力，足以令人為之動容。這正是本文精彩所在。
段落點評：
（一）弟弟中學畢業(yè)那年，考上了縣里的重點高中，同時我也接到了省城大學的錄取通知書。那天晚上，父親蹲在院子里一袋一袋地抽著旱煙，嘴里還叨咕著，兩娃都這么爭氣，真爭氣。母親偷偷抹著眼淚說爭氣有啥用啊，拿啥供�。〉艿茏叩礁赣H面前說，爸，我不想上了，反正也念夠了。父親一巴掌打在弟弟的臉上，說，你咋就這么沒出息？我就是砸鍋賣鐵也要把你們姐倆供出來。說完轉身出去挨家借錢。我撫摸弟弟紅腫的臉說，你得念下去，男娃不念書就一輩子走不出這窮山溝了。弟弟看著我，點點頭。但是我已經決定放棄上學的機會了。沒想到第二天天還沒亮，弟弟就偷偷帶著幾件破衣服和幾個干饃頭走了，在我枕邊留下一個紙條：姐，你別愁了，考上大學不容易，我出去打工供你讀書。
點評：這段細節(jié)描寫及其入微地描述了弟弟為姐姐放棄了上學的機會這一事件，同時將人物形象躍然于紙。父親沉穩(wěn)堅定，母親無可奈何，姐姐一心為弟弟著想，弟弟毅然決定自我犧牲而換取姐姐的錦繡前程。讀完不禁令人潸然淚下，感慨萬千。
（二）我剛上學的時候，學校在鄰村，每天我和我姐都得走上一個小時才到家。有一天，我的手套丟了一只，我姐就把她的給我一只，她自己就戴一只手套走了那么遠的路�；丶乙院�，我姐的那只手凍得都拿不起筷子了。從那時候，我就發(fā)誓我這一輩子一定要對我姐好
點評：就是這樣一件連姐姐自己都已記不清楚的小事，使弟弟發(fā)誓感謝姐姐，回報姐姐，用一生愛姐姐。幾行文字雖短小，但給予人內心的卻是巨大的沖擊與無限的震撼。

這篇文章講述了一顆有夢想的葵花籽“追夢”的過程。全文語言生動、優(yōu)美，從這些字句中可以看出作者對大自然萬物頑強毅力的贊嘆。這顆種子讓人敬仰，也讓人深思：在生活的海洋里，我們每個人都是一粒種子，一粒希望的種子，無論你是生活在肥沃的土地上，還是貧瘠的泥土里，都不要放棄自己的希望，而要努力掙扎、拼搏進取，找到一條屬于自己的路。
愿世界上每一粒種子都有自己的愿望！
段落欣賞：
一只小鳥在林間的小路上找到了一�？ㄗ眩沁@時它已經吃飽了，于是它就想把葵花籽上叼回巢里慢慢享用。它飛過小河，飛過村莊，再飛過一幢瓦房就到家了。到家的喜悅讓這只小鳥有些得意忘形，它站在瓦房頂上忍不住大叫一聲。這下可好，葵花籽正好掉在了北窗旁的磚縫里。這只小鳥怎么也找不到那�？ㄗ眩缓勉仫w走了。
掉進磚縫里的葵花籽想伸展一下自己的身體，可向東是壁，向南是壁，向北是壁，向西還是壁。唉！四處都是壁，這可如何是好？葵花籽嘆了口氣。好在它沒有放棄自己的愿望，休息了一會兒，使出渾身解數向上頂去。從此這�？ㄗ丫蜑樽约哼x準了一個正確的方向——努力向上生長。
沒有土，它努力抓住空氣中的每一粒塵埃；沒有水，它隨時汲取上天降臨的每一滴甘露；借著從南窗透過來的微弱陽光，它膨脹、掙扎，再膨脹、再掙扎，終于，它長出了綠芽，在夏天快要結束的時候，它終于向天空驕傲地綻放出黃艷艷的花朵。不久的后來，它又結出了雖有些小，卻顆粒飽滿、醇香味美的果實。這粒種子的愿望終于實現了！

推薦文章：《跑過冬天》
文章出處：《中華活頁文選》
推薦理由：這篇文章是作者在自己的孩子成人之際寫給孩子的一封信，也是一篇耐人尋味的美文，親切自然，情真意切。以孩子5歲時晨跑的經歷開篇，用排比的句段表達父親的人生經驗，娓娓道來，如沐春風，蘊含著父親無盡的愛。“跑過冬天”實際上是啟發(fā)我們戰(zhàn)勝困難和挫折，用堅強和微笑面對人生中的每次寒冬，這才是成長中最寶貴的禮物。
段落欣賞：
牧牧:
還記得你5歲那年冬天嗎？每天清晨，爸爸總是帶你到離家不遠的公園跑步。 最初，你跑一兩圈就累了，停下來央求爸爸，不要讓你跑了。但是，爸爸說不行，你必須跑完。你要跑累了呀，可以慢慢跑，要是慢慢跑還累呢，可以走著，但就是不能停下來。
冬日的清晨，公園里寂靜無人。路邊的楊樹早已剝落成禿枝，在寒冷的空氣中抖動。你努力地跑著，呼出的氣化成一股股白霧。漸漸地，你跑熱了，脫去黃色毛線帽在手中，隨著你的運動在花壇周圍畫出了一圈流線。于是冬天不再寒冷，冬天有了生命的流動。
如今你要成為一個成年人了，即將接受成年洗禮。
當你生命開始的時候，你與所有人沒有什么不一樣�？僧斈氵M入社會的時候，你與所有人都不同。
或許，你會遭遇失敗，須知人生歷程，逆境多，順境少。故凡事要運用智慧，竭盡全力。社會只看重你的結果，而你要看重努力的過程，即使失敗，切勿自棄，社會不同情眼淚，上帝只救自救的人。
或許，你會落入孤獨。堅定的攀登者總是孤獨地前行，在情感孤獨中要守住自我，珍愛自己，“五湖明月在，漁歌總有時”。
盡一切人生之責。
所有的這一切，都是上帝給予你的人生苦難和責任，這就像江河行地、日月經天那樣正常自然。既然如此，就讓它來吧，你已經開始成人，用微笑和勇氣擁抱你的人生！
人生會有許多冬天，跑起來吧，不要停下，跑過冬天！
父親

>01 The Language of Music
A painter hangs his or her finished picture 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 and as arduous a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. 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 instrumentalists have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuner's responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties: the hammers that hit the strings 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 sounds with fanatical but selfless 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.
01 音樂的語言
畫家將已完成的作品掛在墻上，每個人都可以觀賞到。作曲家寫完了一部作品，得由演奏者將其演奏出來，其他人才能得以欣賞。因為作曲家是如此完全地依賴于職業(yè)歌手和職業(yè)演奏者，所以職業(yè)歌手和職業(yè)演奏者肩上的擔子可謂不輕。
一名學音樂的學生要想成為一名演奏者，需要經受長期的、嚴格的訓練，就象一名醫(yī)科的學生要成為一名醫(yī)生一樣。絕大多數的訓練是技巧性的。音樂家們控制肌肉的熟練程度，必須達到與運動員或巴蕾舞演員相當的水平。歌手們每天都練習吊嗓子，因為如果不能有效地控制肌肉的話，他們的聲帶將不能滿足演唱的要求。弦樂器的演奏者練習的則是在左手的手指上下滑動的同時，用右手前后拉動琴弓--兩個截然不同的動作。歌手和樂器演奏者必須使所有的音符完全相同協調。鋼琴家們則不用操這份心，因為每個音符都已在那里等待著他們了。
給鋼琴調音是調音師的職責。但調音師們也有他們的難處：他們必須耐心地調理敲擊琴弦的音錘，不能讓音錘發(fā)出的聲音象是打擊樂器，而且每個交疊的音都必須要清晰。如何得到樂章清晰的紋理 是學生指揮們所面臨的難題：他們必須學會了解音樂中的每一個音及其發(fā)音之道。他們還 必須致力于以熱忱而又客觀的權威去控制這些音符。除非是和音樂方面的知識和悟性結合起來，單純的技巧沒有任何用處。藝術家之所以偉大在于他們對音樂語言駕輕就熟，以致于可以滿懷喜悅地演出寫于任何時代的作品。
>02 Schooling and Education
It is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.
Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a revered grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist.
Whereas schooling has a certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are engaged in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral part of one's entire life. Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next.
Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, take assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.
There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.
上學與受教育
在美國，人們通常認為上學是為了受教育。而現在卻有人認為孩子們上學打斷了他們受教育的過程。這種觀念中的上學與受教育之間的區(qū)別非常重要。
與上學相比，教育更具開放性，內容更廣泛。教育不受任何限制。它可以在任何場合下進行，在淋浴時，在工作時，在廚房里或拖拉機上。它既包括在學校所受的正規(guī)教育，也包括一切非正規(guī)教育。傳授知識的人可以是德高望重的老者，可以是收音機里進行政治辯論的人們，可以是小孩子，也可以是知名的科學家。上學讀書多少有點可預見性，而教育往往能帶來意外的發(fā)現。與陌生人的一次隨意談話可能會使人認識到自己對其它宗教其實所知甚少。人們從幼時起就開始受教育。因此，教育是一個內涵很豐富的詞，它自始至終伴隨人的一生，早在人們上學之前就開始了。
教育應成為人生命中不可缺少的一部分。然而，上學卻是一個特定的形式化了的過程。在不同場合下，它的基本形式大同小異。在全國各地，孩子們幾乎在同一時刻到達學校，坐在指定的座位上，由一位成年人傳授知識，使用大致相同的教材，做作業(yè)，考試等等。
他們所學的現實生活中的一些片斷，如字母表或政府的運作，往往受到科目范 圍的限制。 例如，高中生們知道，在課堂上他們沒法弄清楚他們社區(qū)里政治問題的真情，也不會了解到最新潮的電影制片人在做哪些嘗試。學校教育這一形式化的過程是有特定的限制的。
>03 The Definition of "Price"
Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad of services, includinglabor, professional, transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationships of all these prices make up the"system" of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else. If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define "price", many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in a market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far as it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the amount of money involved must be known. Both the buyer and the seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and other factors. In other words, both buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that comprise the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.
"價格"的定義 價格決定資源的使用方式。價格也是有限的產品與服務在買方中的配給手段。美國的價格系統是復雜的網狀系統，包括經濟生活中一切產品買賣的價格，也包括名目繁多的各種服務，諸如勞動力、專職人員、交通運輸、公共事業(yè)等服務的價格。
所有這些價格的內在聯系構成了價格系統。任何一種個別產品或服務的價格都與這個龐大而復雜的系統密切相關，而且或多或少地受到系統中其它成份的制約。如果隨機挑選一群人，問問他們如何定義"價格"，許多人會回答價格就是根據賣方提供的產品或服務，買方向其付出的錢數。 換句話說，價格就是市場交易中大家認同的產品或服務的貨幣量。該定義就其本身來說自有其道理。
但要獲得對價格在任何一樁交易中的完整認識，就必須考慮到大量" 非貨幣"因素的影響。買賣雙方不但要清楚交易中的錢數，而且要非常熟悉交易物的質量和數量，交易的時間、地點，采用哪種形式付款，有怎樣的緩付和優(yōu)惠，對交易物的質量保證、交貨條款、退賠權利等等。也就是說，為了能估算索價，買賣雙方必須通曉構成交易物價格的通盤細節(jié)。
>04 Electricity
The modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radio, televisions, and telephones that it is hard to imagine what life would be like without them. When there is a power failure, people grope about in flickering candlelight, cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to guide them, and food spoils in silent refrigerators.
Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago. Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are discovering more and more that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity.
All living cells send out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out pulses of record; they form an electrocardiogram, which a doctor can study to determine how well the heart is working. The brain, too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in an electroencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most living cells are extremely small -- often so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells have become so specialized as electrical generators that they do not work as muscle cells at all. When large numbers of these cells are linked together, the effects can be astonishing.
The electric eel is an amazing storage battery. It can send a jolt of as much as eight hundred volts of electricity through the water in which it lives. (An electric house current is only one hundred twenty volts.) As many as four-fifths of all the cells in the electric eel's body are specialized for generating electricity, and the strength of the shock it
can deliver corresponds roughly to the length of its body.
電 當今時代是電氣時代。人們對電燈、收音機、電視和電話早已司空見慣以致很難想 象沒有它們生活會變成什么樣。當停電時，人們在搖曳不定的燭光下暗中摸索；因沒有紅綠燈的指示，汽車在道路上遲疑不前；冰箱也停止工作，導致食物變質。人們只是在兩個世紀前一點才開始了解電的使用原理，自然界卻顯然在這方面經歷過了數百萬年。科學家不斷發(fā)現許多生物世界里可能有益于人類的關于電的有趣秘密。所有生物細胞都會發(fā)出微小的電脈沖。 當心臟跳動時，把它發(fā)出的脈沖記錄下來就成了心電圖，這可讓醫(yī)生了解心臟的工作狀況。大腦也發(fā)出腦電波，這可在腦電圖上記錄下來。
許多生物細胞發(fā)出的電流都是極微小的，小到要用靈敏儀器才能記錄和測量。但一些動物的某些肌肉細胞能轉化成一個個發(fā)電機，以致完全失去肌肉細胞的功能。
這種細胞大量地連接在一起時產生的效果將是非常令人吃驚的。電鰻就是一種令人驚異的蓄電池。它可以在水中發(fā)出相當于 800 伏特電壓電流(家庭用戶的電壓只有 120 伏特)。 在電鰻的身體里，多至五分之四的細胞都專門用來發(fā)電，而且發(fā)出的電流的強度大約和它身體的長度成正比。
>05 The Beginning of Drama
There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece.
The one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world - even the seasonal changes - as unpredictable, and they sought through various means to control these unknown and feared powers. Those measureswhich appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art and drama.
Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites contained the seed of theater becausemusic, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances and when the entire community did not participate, a clear division was usually made between the"acting area" and the"auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the enactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed the desired effect -- success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun -- as an actor might.
Eventually such dramatic representations were separated from religious activities.
Another theory traces the theater's origin from the human interest in storytelling. According to this view tales (about the hunt, war, or other feats) are gradually elaborated, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or that are imitations of animal movements and sounds.
戲劇的起源 關于古希臘戲劇的起源存在著多種理論，其中一個最普遍為人接受的理論假設認為戲劇從儀式演化而來。 這個觀點是這樣進行論證的：一開始，人類把世界上的自 然力量，甚至季節(jié)的變化都看成是不可預料的。 他們試圖通過各種方式去控制這些未知的、令人恐懼的力量。 那些似乎帶來了滿意結果的手段就被保留下來并且重復直到這些手段固化為不變的儀式，最后產生了能夠解釋或者掩蓋這些儀式神秘性的故事。 隨著時間的推移， 一些儀式被廢棄了，但這些后來被稱作神話的故事流傳下來并且為藝術和戲劇提供了素材。認為戲劇從儀式演化而來的人們還認為那些儀式包含了戲劇的基本因素，因為音樂、舞蹈、面具和服裝幾乎經常被使用，而且，必須為演出提供一個合適的地點；如果不是整個社區(qū)共 同參加演出，經常在"演出區(qū)"和"觀眾席"之間劃分出明顯的分界。
另外，儀式中還有演員， 而且宗教領袖通常承擔演出任務，因為在儀式的執(zhí)行中避免錯誤的發(fā)生被認為有相當
大的重 要性；他們經常帶著面具，穿著服裝象演員那樣扮演其它人、動物或超自然的生靈，用動作來表演以達到所需要的效果，比如打獵的成功或戰(zhàn)斗的勝利、將至的雨、太陽的復活。最后這些戲劇性的表演從宗教活動中分離了出來。
另一個追溯戲劇起源的理論認為它來自人們對敘述故事的興趣。 根據這個觀點，故事(關于狩獵、戰(zhàn)爭或者其它偉績)是逐漸豐富起 來的。
首先通過一個講解人來運用模仿、表演和對話，然后再由不同的人扮演各自的角色；另一個與之緊密相關的理論將戲劇的起源追溯至舞蹈，這些舞蹈大體上是有節(jié)奏感的和體操式的那一類，或者是對動物動作和聲音的模仿。 >06 Television
Television -- the most pervasive and persuasive of modern technologies, marked by rapid change and growth -- is moving into a new era, an era of extraordinary sophistication and versatility, which promises to reshape our lives and our world. It is an electronic revolution of sorts, made possible by the marriage of television and computer technologies.The word "television", derived from its Greek (tele: distant) and Latin (visio: sight) roots, can literally be interpreted as sight from a distance. Very simply put, it works in this way: through a sophisticated system of electronics, television provides the capability of converting an image(focused on a special photoconductive plate within a camera) into electronic impulses, which can be sent through a wire or cable. These impulses, when fed into a receiver (television set), can then be electronically reconstituted into that same image.
Television is more than just an electronic system, however. It is a means of expression, as well as a vehicle for communication, and as such becomes a powerful tool for reaching other human beings.
The field of television can be divided into two categories determined by its means of transmission. First, there is broadcast television, which reaches the masses through broad-based airwave transmission of television signals.Second, there is nonbroadcast television, which provides for the needs of individuals or specific interest groups through controlled transmission techniques.
Traditionally, television has been a medium of the masses. We are most familiar with broadcast television because it has been with us for about thirty-seven years in a form similar to what exists today. During those years, it has been controlled, for the most part, by the broadcast networks, ABC, NBC, and CBS, who have been the major purveyors of news, information, and entertainment. These giants of broadcasting have actually shaped not only television but our perception of it as well. We have come to look upon the picture tube as a source of entertainment, placing our role in this dynamic medium as the passive viewer.
電視電視--以快速變化與發(fā)展為標志的最普遍、最具有影響力的一項現代技術，正在步入一個極端復雜化與多樣化的新時代。
這個時代承諾重新塑造我們的生活和我們的世界。這可以稱得上是又一次電子革命，其關鍵在于電視技術與計算機技術的結合。"電視"這個詞 來源于希臘語詞根(tele：遠)和拉丁語詞根(vision：景象)，可以從字面上理解為來自遠處的 景象。
簡單說來，電視是以這種方式工作的，通過一個復雜的電子系統，電視能夠將一幅圖像(這幅圖像被聚焦在一部攝像機內的一塊特殊的光導底片上)轉換成能經過導線或電纜發(fā)送出去的電子脈沖信號。
當這些電子脈沖信號被輸入一部接收機(電視機)時，就可以用 電子學的方法把脈沖信號重新恢復成同一幅圖像。但是，電視不僅僅是一個電子系統，它還是一種表達工具和傳播渠道。因此，電視成了一個對其他人發(fā)生影響的強大工具。電視這個領域可以根據其發(fā)射方式分為兩類。
第一類為廣播電視，通過電視信號的寬帶無線電波 發(fā)射展現在大眾面前；第二類為非廣播電視，使用受控的發(fā)射技術來滿足個人以及某些特殊利益群體的需要。電視早已成為大眾媒介。我們熟悉廣播電視，因為廣播電視已經以類似目前的方式存在了大約37 年。
在那些年頭中，電視絕大部分一直由 ABC、NBC、CBS 這些廣播電視公司控制著，這些廣播電視公司一直是新聞、信息和娛樂的主要提供者。 這些廣播業(yè)的巨頭實際上不僅塑造了電視，而且也塑造了我們對電視的理解。 我們漸漸把顯像管看作是娛樂的來源，讓自己成為這個生動的媒介的被動觀眾。
>07 Andrew Carnegie
Andrew Carnegie, known as the King of Steel, built the steel industry in the United States, and, in the process, became one of the wealthiest men in America. His success resulted in part from his ability to sell the product and in part from his policy of expanding during periods of economic decline, when most of his competitors were reducing their investments.Carnegie believed that individuals should progress through hard work, but he also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society. He opposed charity, preferring instead to provide
educational opportunities that would allow others to help themselves. "He who dies rich, dies disgraced, " he often said.Among his more noteworthy contributions to society are those that bear his name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has a library, a museum of fine arts, and a museum of national history. He also founded a school of technology that is now part of Carnegie-Mellon University. Other philanthropic gifts are the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to promote understanding between nations, the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund scientific research, and Carnegie Hall to provide a center for the arts.
Few Americans have been left untouched by Andrew Carnegie's generosity. His contributions of more than five million dollars established 2,500 libraries in small communities throughout the country and formed the nucleus of the public library system that we all enjoy today.
安德魯?卡內基被稱作鋼鐵大王的安德魯?卡內基在美國建立了鋼鐵工業(yè)。在這個過程中，他變成了美國最富有的人之一。
他的成功，部分來自于他銷售產品的能力，部分來自于經濟蕭條時期的擴充策略。在蕭條時期，他的多數對手都在縮減投資�？▋然J為個人應該通過努力工作來獲得進展，但他也強烈地感到有錢人應該運用他們的財富來為社會謀取福利。 他反對施舍救濟，更愿意提供教育機會，使別人自立。
卡內基經常說："富有著 死去的人死得可恥。"他對社會的較重要的貢獻都以他的名字命名。這些貢獻包括匹茲堡卡內基學校。
這個學校有一個圖書館，一個美術館和一個國家歷史博物館；他還創(chuàng)立了一所 技術學校，這所學�，F在是卡內基梅隆大學的一部分；其他的慈善捐贈有為促進國家間了解的"卡內基國際和平基金"，為科學研究提供經費的華盛頓卡內基學院以及給各種藝術活動提供活動中心的卡內基音樂廳。安德魯?卡內基的慷慨大度幾乎影響到每個美國人的生活。由于他超過五百萬美元的捐款，2500個圖書館得以建立起來，遍布在美國各地的小村鎮(zhèn)，形成了我們今天還在享用的公共圖書館系統的核心。
>08 American Revolution
The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden and violent overturning of the political and social framework, such as later occurred in France and Russia, when bothwere already independent nations. Significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. What
happened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. During the conflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. Most of them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on. America's War of Independence heralded the birth of three modern nations. One was Canada, which received its first large influx of English-speaking population from the thousands of loyalists who fled there from the United States. Another was Australia, which became a penal colony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. The third newcomer -- the United States -- based itself squarely on republican principles.Yet even the political overturn was not so revolutionary as one might suppose. In some states, notably Connecticut and Rhode Island, the war largely ratified a colonial self-rule already existing. British officials, everywhere ousted, were replaced by a home-grown governing class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king and Parliament.
美國革命美國革命其實并不算是一場革命，因為它并未導致完全的和徹底的變化。這次革命并不是對政治和社會框架的一次突然和猛烈的顛覆，象后來在已經是獨立國家的法國 和俄國所爆發(fā)的革命那樣。
革命帶來了重大的變化，但并非翻天覆地，所發(fā)生的只是進化 的加速，而不是一場徹底的革命；在沖突期間，人們仍然上班、做禮拜、結婚、玩耍。多數人并沒有受到實際戰(zhàn)斗的嚴重影響。許多較閉塞的社區(qū)對這場戰(zhàn)爭幾乎一無所知。美國獨立戰(zhàn)爭宣布了三個現代國家的誕生，其中一個是加拿大。
加拿大的第一大批講英語的流 入人口來自于成千上萬英王的效忠者，這些人從美國逃到了加拿大。另一個國家是澳大利亞，因為美國不再是容納罪犯和欠債者的國度了，澳大利亞就變成了一個懲治罪犯的殖民地(注：獨立戰(zhàn)爭前，英國政府將罪犯流放到美國)。第三個國家就是美國，它完全建立在共和原則基礎上。即使政治上的顛覆也不如人們可能想象的那樣具有革命性。在一些州，特別是康涅狄格和羅德島，戰(zhàn)爭基本上只是承認了已經存在的殖民地的自治。四處被驅逐的英國官員都被本土的統治階級所替代，這個統治階級迅速地以地方權力機關來替代國王和議會。
>09 Suburbanization
If by "suburb" is meant an urban margin that grows more rapidly than its already developed interior, the process of suburbanization began during the emergence of the industrial city in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. Before that period the city was a small highly compact cluster in which people moved about on foot and goods were conveyed

The first essay
月 光 曲
一天晚上，我漫步在月光下，忽發(fā)奇想，仿佛聽到月亮姑娘在深情地訴說。
——題記
你還在追尋著我的腳步嗎？——我心中的少年。
正值薄暮時分，我悄悄地來到人世間，在蒼茫的夜色中，看見你正獨自徘徊在小樹林里。你不顧晚風襲人，不時的向我揮動著手中的花環(huán)。也許是因為受了你的感染，我的臉上也泛起了一層紅暈。我羞澀地躲在白云身后，透過薄薄的輕紗，看見你正癡癡的望著我。
你說，眾星捧月。其實，我也不過是一顆普普通通的小星星。你的錯誤的崇拜使我心里忐忑不安。
你說，我是一本耐人尋味的好書，永
夜色沉沉，晚風習習，林中傳來了你那美妙的歌聲。望著你深情的目光，我真想從樹梢上跳下來，投進你的懷抱，——當你張開雙臂，想擁抱我的時候�？上疑聿挥梢�，枉負了你一片苦心。
就讓那火紅的朝陽永遠照亮你的心吧！倘若能夠，我愿意化作溫馨的春風，溶進濛濛細雨之中??
但我的心中不能沒有你，——“嫦娥應悔偷靈藥，碧海青天夜夜心”。 天地有靈，當知道，春雨濛濛，那滴落在你身上的，不是天上的雨水，而是我心中的眼淚！
我在遙遠天國祝福你——我心中的少年，當你獨自一人走夜路的時候。 （精美小文，深刻雋永。連讀幾遍，甚為折服也。作者托物言情，寄情于月，意境清遠；行文遣詞，匠心獨運，猶如天籟之聲，裊裊娜娜；又如天邊彩云，絢麗多彩，隨風舞動，但形散而神不散也。 ——爸爸讀后有感 2012.4.6于教育局）
The second essay
幸福
巴克萊
幸福的生活有三個不可或缺的因素：一是有希望，二是有事做，三是能愛人。
有希望。
亞歷山大大帝有一次大送禮，表示他的慷慨。他給了甲一大筆錢，給了乙一個省份，給了丙一個高官。他的朋友聽到這件事后，對他說：“你要是一直這樣做下去，會一貧如洗�！眮啔v山大回答說：“我哪里會一貧如洗？我給自己留下的是一份最偉大的禮物——希望�！币粋�人要是只生活在回憶中，失去了希望，他的生命便已經開始終結�；貞洸荒芄奈栉覀冇辛Φ厣钕氯�，回憶只能讓我們逃避，好像囚犯逃出監(jiān)獄。
有事做。
一個英國老婦人，在她身患重病、自知時日不多的時候，寫下了如下的詩句：“現在別憐憫我，永遠也不要憐憫我；我將不再工作，永遠永遠不再工作�！焙芏嗳硕加羞^失業(yè)或者沒有事做的時候，這時會覺得日子過得很慢，生活十分空虛。有過這種經驗的人都知道，有事做不是不幸，而是一種幸福。
能愛人。
詩人白朗寧曾寫道：“他望了她一眼，她對他回眸一笑，生命突然復蘇�！鄙杏辛藧�，我們就會變得謙卑、有生氣，新的希望油然而生，仿佛有千百件事等著去完成。有了愛，生命就有了春天，世界也變得萬紫千紅。最美的禱告應該是：主啊，求你讓我有力量去幫助別人！
（爸爸寄語：幸福在哪里？在于“有希望、有事做、能愛人”。人生于天地之間，當有夢想，繼之以矻矻奮斗，用汗水用智慧用毅力去實現夢想、超越夢想。以博愛之心，海納百川，厚積薄發(fā)。。。。。。）
The third one（通過富有詩意及概括性的頒獎詞，一個個人物正款款向你走來。。。。。。）
