1。Good Intentions 良好的心愿 One day a boy came to his teacher and said:" Teacher, pa wants to know if you like roast pig." 一天有个男孩去对他老师说:“老师,我爸想知道你是不是爱吃烤猪肉。” "I certainly do," said the teacher, "and you tell your father he is very kind to think of me." “当然罗,”老师说,“去告诉你父亲,多谢他想着我。” Days passed, and nothing more was said about the roast pig. 好几天过去了,再没提起考猪肉的事儿。 Finally the teacher said to the boy:"I thought your father was going to send me over some roast pig." 最后老师对男孩说:“我以为你父亲要给我送点烤猪肉来呢。” "Yes," said the boy, "he did intend to, but the pig sot well." “是啊,”孩子说,“他是这么想的,可后来猪又没病了。” 2 Who Shot Abraham Lincoln Mr. Smith and his son Rick were called to teacher 's classroom. “ Mr. Smith, ” said the teacher, “ I asked Rick 'Who shot Abraham Lincoln?' and he said that he didn't do it! ” “ Well, teacher, ” said Smith, “ if my kid said he didn't do it — he didn't do it! ” Father and son left the school, and on their way home, Smith turned to the boy and asked, “ Tell me, son, did you do it? ” 谁枪杀了阿拉伯罕·林肯 史密斯 先生和他的儿子瑞克被请进老师办公室。 “ 史密斯 先生,”老师说,“我问瑞克‘谁枪杀了阿拉伯罕·林肯?'他说不是他干的!” “嗯,老师,” 史密斯说,“如果我的孩子说不是他干的,——那就不是他干的!”父亲与儿子离开学校,在回家的路上,史密斯问儿子:“告诉我,儿子,是你干的吗?”3. A Grain of Sand 一粒沙子 William Blake/威廉.布莱克 To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild fllower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. 从一粒沙子看到一个世界, 从一朵野花看到一个天堂, 把握在你手心里的就是无限, 永恒也就消融于一个时辰。 4. Love Your Life 热爱生活 Henry David Thoreau/享利.大卫.梭罗 However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man‘s abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town‘s poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts. 不论你的生活如何卑贱,你要面对它生活,不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你那样坏。你最富有的时候,倒是看似最穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活,尽管它贫穷。甚至在一个济贫院里,你也还有愉快、高兴、光荣的时候。夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上,像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮;在那门前,积雪同在早春融化。我只看到,一个从容的人,在哪里也像在皇宫中一样,生活得心满意足而富有愉快的思想。城镇中的穷人,我看,倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。也许因为他们很伟大,所以受之无愧。大多数人以为他们是超然的,不靠城镇来支援他们;可是事实上他们是往往利用了不正当的手段来对付生活,他们是毫不超脱的,毋宁是不体面的。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要找新的花样,无论是新的朋友或新的衣服,来麻烦你自己。找旧的,回到那里去。万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想。 5. These things can never die 这些美好不会消逝 The pure.the bright,the beautiful, 一切纯洁的,辉煌的,美丽的, That stirred our hearts in youth, 强烈地震撼着我们年轻的心灵的, The impulses to wordless prayer, 推动着我们做无言的祷告的, The dreams of love and truth; 让我们梦想着爱与真理的; The longing after something‘s lost, 在失去后为之感到珍惜的, The spirit‘s yearning cry, 使灵魂深切地呼喊着的, The striving after better hopes- 为了更美好的梦想而奋斗着的- These things can never die. 这些美好不会消逝。 The timid hand stretched forth to aid 羞怯地伸出援助的手, A brother in his need, 在你的弟兄需要的时候, A kindly word in grief‘s dark hour 伤恸、困难的时候,一句亲切的话 That proves a friend indeed ; 就足以证明朋友的真心; The plea for mercy softly breathed, 轻声地乞求怜悯, When justice threatens nigh, 在审判临近的时候, The sorrow of a contrite heart- 懊悔的心有一种伤感-- These things shall never die. 这些美好不会消逝。 Let nothing pass for every hand 在人间传递温情 Must find some work to do ; 尽你所能地去做; Lose not a chance to waken love- 别错失去了唤醒爱的良机----- Be firm,and just ,and true; 为人要坚定,正直,忠诚; So shall a light that cannot fade 因此上方照耀着你的那道光芒 Beam on thee from on high. 就不会消失。 And angel voices say to thee---你将听到天使的声音在说----- These things shall never die. 这些美好不会消逝。 6.

简短英语小诗歌如下:
Life is a streamOn which we strew
Petal by petal the flower of our heart;The end lost in dream,
They float past our view,
We only watch their glad, early start.
生命如一条涓涓细流
我们在这里撒满了
—片片心之花瓣;
小溪的尽头消失在梦中,
花瓣漂过我们眼前,
我们只看见那些愉悦的起点。
Freighted with hope,Crimsoned with joy,
we scatter the leaves of our opening rose;Their widening scope,
Their distant employ,
We never shall know.And the stream as it flowssweeps them away,
Each one is gone
Ever beyond into infinite ways.We alone stay
While years hurry on,
The flower fared forth, though its fragrance still stays.
满载着希望,
被快乐染成绯红,
我们撒下盛放的玫瑰花瓣;
它们日渐宽阔的流域,
它们久远的事业,
我们永远无法得知。当溪水潺潺,
将它们带走,
每一片都悄然漂远
向着无限的远方。
只有我们留在这里
当岁月匆匆流逝,
花已逝,而香如故。
诗歌的特点:
诗来源于生活。诗是生活大海的闪光。把诗与生活隔开,就无法认识诗的内容本质。在古今中外涌现出了许许多多诗歌。
“诗的范围是全部的生活和自然;诗人观照森罗万象,他的观照是如同思想家对这些森罗万象的概念一样多方面的。”有生活的地方,就有诗的歌唱。诗的领域象生活一样广阔无垠。
文学是一种语言艺术,诗歌又历来被视 作文 学的最高形式。 学习英语 诗歌不但有助于开阔视野,陶冶性情,而且对于 英语学习 有很大帮助。我精心收集了简短又优美的 英语诗歌 ,供大家欣赏学习!简短又优美的英语诗歌:For My David Hey man Do you see the man who is called David?
