英文美文300字

My skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited potential. Only a small portion of my brain do I employ; only a paltry amount of my muscles do I flex. A hundredfold or more can I increase my accomplishments of yesterday and this I will do, beginning today. 我的技艺，我的头脑，我的心灵，我的身体，若不善加利用，都将随着时间的流逝而迟钝，腐朽，甚至死亡。我的潜力无穷无尽，脑力、体能稍加开发，就能超过以往的任何成就。从今天开始。我就要开发潜力。 Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments nor will I indulge, anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today? 我不再因昨日的成绩沾沾自喜，不再为微不足道的成绩目吹自擂。我能做的比已经完成的更好。我的出生并非最后一样奇迹，为什么自己不能再创奇迹呢？ And I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy. 我不是随意来到这个世上的。我生来应为高山。而非草芥。从今往后，我要竭尽全力成为群峰之巅。将我的潜能发挥到最大限度。 I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think and now I know a great secret of life for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements, heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise. I will no longer be fooled by the garments they wear for mine eyes are open. I will look beyond the cloth and I will not be deceived. 我有双眼，可以观察；我有头脑，可以思考。现在我已洞悉了一个人生中伟大的奥秘。我发现，一切问题、沮丧、悲伤，都是乔装打扮的机遇之神。我不再被他们的外表所蒙骗，我已睁开双眼，看破了他们的伪装。 Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young. 无论是60岁还是16岁，你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄灭的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事业成功的欢乐与热情。在你我的心底，有一座无线电台，它能在多长时间里接收到人间万物传递来的美好、希望、欢乐、鼓舞和力量的信息，你就会年轻多长时间An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately pastboulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being. 人的生命应当像河流，开始是涓涓细流，受两岸的限制而十分狭窄，尔后奔腾咆哮，翻过危岩，飞越瀑布，河面渐渐开阔，河岸也随之向两边隐去，最后水流平缓，森森无际，汇入大海之中，个人就这样毫无痛苦地消失了。Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This oftenexists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our ideals. 青春意味着战胜懦弱的那股大丈夫气概和摈弃安逸的那种冒险精神。往往一个60岁的老者比一个20岁的青年更多一点这种劲头。人老不仅仅是岁月流逝所致，更主要的是不思进取的结果。Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. 光阴可以在颜面上留下印记，而热情之火的熄灭则在心灵上刻下皱纹。烦恼、恐惧、缺乏自信会扭曲人的灵魂，并将青春化为灰烬!

阅读是人们获取信息的重要手段,更是学习英语的主要途径之一。在我国,由于英语是非母语的学习,在学习过程中没有语言环境的熏陶,那么,阅读便成为人们获取信息、提高英语水平的有效途径。我整理了300字英语美文摘抄，欢迎阅读!

Along with feelings of insecurity, loss of control and nervousness, physical effects, including sleep issues, fatigue and loss of appetite, are caused by homesickness. We gathered a few psychologist-backed tips to help ease homesickness:

想家除了会导致不安感，还有失控、紧张，对身体也有影响(包括失眠、疲劳、没有胃口)。我们搜集了一些心理学家提供的帮助缓解想家的建议：

1. Realize that feeling homesick is 100 percent normal.

你要知道想家很正常。

Almost everyone experiences homesickness when moving to a new place — some people might just be better at hiding it. Being homesick is not a sign of personal shortcoming.

几乎每个人到了一个新地方都会想家，只是有些人更善于隐藏这种情绪，想家不是缺点。

2. Make connections with new people in comfortable settings.

在舒服的气氛中和别人交朋友。

Feeling homesick when separated from loved ones motivates people to want to be with those supportive people. But keep in mind that everyone is different when it comes to forming those new relationships. When making new connections, it’s best to stick to the style that works for you in order to mitigate homesickness.

和亲人分开后会想家，这会使人们想要和能帮他们的人在一起。但你要记住交新朋友时每个人都有各自的特点，交朋友时你最好坚持适合自己的风格，以便缓解想家的感觉。

3. Practice self-compassion.

自我同情。

Self-compassion is loving yourself just as you love the ones you care about. The most important step in practicing self-compassion is substituting negative, critical thoughts about yourself with thoughts that are more supportive and kind.

自我同情就是像爱你在乎的人那样爱你自己。自我同情最重要的方法就是用更积极更宽容的想法对待自己，取代以前消极的、批评的想法。

4. Keep tabs on your negativity.

密切注意自己的消极情绪。

It’s also useful to ask yourself how much of your homesickness is due to an event and how much is from how you’re perceiving a situation. Taking a step back is recommended, instead of falling into the trap of a negative outlook. You can silence negative thoughts in many ways, including reciting positive mantras, keeping a journal or even taking a walk in a park.

问问自己你想家跟某件事本身有多大关系，跟你对待这件事的态度有多大关系，这个方法也很有用。你最好退一步思考这个问题，而不是深深陷入消极的想法中。你可以用很多方法来抑制消极情绪，比如背诵一些积极的名言、写日记，甚至还可以去公园里散散步。

Too many people think of happiness as the ultimate goal of life. But, if you’re waiting for happiness to arrive then it’s likely that it never will!

有太多人把幸福当作人生的终极目标，但如果你只是等待幸福来敲门，幸福可能永远都不会到来!

You’re always wanting something more, always looking forward to a time when you’ll be “happy”. And, if you fall into this trap, you’ll never reach that goal. Happiness should not be your life’s goal, it should be your life! The only time to be happy is right now! It’s state of mind, not a set of accomplishments or the accumulation of material things. You must accept that life will always have challenges and things will not always go your way.

你总是期待得到更多，总是期待着你变“幸福”的那一刻。然而，如果你陷入这种思维陷阱，那你永远也达不到这个目的。幸福不该是生活的目标，它应该是生活本身!幸福唯一该存在的时刻，就是每时每刻的现在!它是一种心态，而不是一连串的成就，或者物质财富的积累。你必须要接受的是：生活中总会有挑战，事情不会总朝着你期望的方向发展。

Instead of feeling disappointed when things don’t work out the way you’d hoped, feel grateful for the experience. Instead of dreaming of a brighter, happier, richer tomorrow, make today as wonderful as you can.

事情的发展不如你所愿时不要沮丧，你要对拥有这次体验心存感激。不要幻想着明天会更美好、更幸福、更富有，要尽可能精彩地过好今天。

Happiness is a conscious decision and that I can make it right now. Thinking of the future and having aspirations is essential to leading a happy and fulfilled life. The trick is not to let thoughts of the future overshadow your enjoyment of the present and the appreciation of the things and people you have in your life right now!

幸福是我此刻就能做出的有意识的决定。思考未来、胸怀大志是幸福美满生活的基础，关键在于不要让对未来的思考掩盖当下的快乐和对现在生活中人和事的感激!

There is no way to happiness: happiness is the way!

没有通往幸福的路：幸福本身就是一条路!

Stop waiting for happiness to arrive and simply decide to be happy! It’s not some great goal or destination, it’s a journey and a way of life.

不要再等着幸福登门了，你需要做的仅仅是决定幸福地活着!这不是什么伟大的目的目标，只是生命的旅程和道路。

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, comes 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, comes 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, comes 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。

Mther:

Oh! One thing I realize as I get little older is that we should value our lives and spend it meaningfully.

当大一点的时候，我开始意识到，我们应该珍惜当下生活，让它变得有意义。

Dream big and set plans.

放胆做梦，并为此指定计划。

I thank God for helping me to achieve my goal each year.

感谢上帝，让我每年的目标都得以实现。

Although not everything is perfect, but somewhat closer to that. I surpassed my 2016 with a #goalmet and proudly to say that building my own family is a gift.

虽不是所有的目标都实现得非常完美，但是多少都在朝着目标迈进。2016年的目标我都已经达成，而且还为家庭建设孕育了一个礼物为此我很傲娇。

Thank you God for the most special gift I got last year. Soon I will get to see it. I do promise to take good care of it.

感谢上苍在2016年就给我了这个特别的礼物，不久我就会见到TA了而且我发誓我会好好照顾TA

Me and my husband waiting for our fruit. A fruit made with love. A fruit that we dream of. A special gift that forever we will treasure. A baby I will name as baby Z.。         丈夫和我都在等待我们的结晶，我们都梦寐以求的爱的结晶.这份特别的礼物我们都会永远珍惜。我们会给这个宝贝取名叫Z。

I'm just sitting here in my room today, listening to music while it rains outside my window, and I can't stop thinking about how happy I am and how great my life is. There's nothing particularly special about it - I'm not rich or famous, I'm not exceptionally talented, and I don't do anything particularly fabulous for a living. But I feel somewhat organized, I have a clean room and a car and a job, and most of all what makes it great is the mere fact that I feel happy.

今天我坐在自己的房间里，听着音乐，窗外下着雨，我不由得感到自己是多么愉快、生活是多么美妙。尽管我不是什么大富大贵，社会名流，也没有智力超群，或是做什么伟大的事情来营生。但是我感觉一切井井有条，我有一个干净的房间、一辆车以及一份工作。但是最重要的是，我单纯觉得快乐。

I know this may not seem like the most interesting story in the world, but when I was twelve, I was deeply suicidal.

我知道这看起来不像是什么世间的奇闻异事，但是在我12岁的时候，我非常想自杀。

I'm sharing my good mood today because I know there are tons of people out there who struggle with life.

今天我和大家分享这种岁月静好的心情，是因为我知道还有很多人都遭受生活的苦楚和折磨。

Not even necessarily the outward details of their lives, but the inner demons that exist within their minds.

不仅仅有生活中的外在琐事给他们添堵，还有内心的怪兽在作祟。

I want you to know - if that's you - that the mere possibility of reaching a place of inner peace is worth it. It is worth hanging on for.

我想让你们知道的是，很少有人能真正达到内心平和，但是这种为达到这种状态值得坚持磨炼。

I was probably 25 when happiness and contentment became my default emotions. It took a long time, and it took a lot of change, pain and growth. But now that I'm here, it feels permanent. And the emotions of the past feel like they happened to someone else. They are so foreign and distant to me. For some, it may take even longer, and it may take even more. But I cannot imagine even for a second that the struggle wouldn't be worth it if this is the end result.

我可能直到25岁才让知足常乐变成一种情绪上的常态。这中间需要很长的时间，很多的改变，痛苦让你成长。现如今我的情绪变得稳定而长久，回忆起之前的种种好像是发生在别人的身上，对于现在我来说是那么的陌生和遥远。对于有些人来说，获得这种安定的心境要花更长的时间，做更多的改变。但是如果经历了所有折磨还是无法改变什么，结果一点都不值得，关于这个我想都不敢想。

That's it. I just wanted to share my positive vibes with everybody. The world can be an amazing place if you let it, and you can be an amazing person. You probably already are. Good luck, and please never give up. I hope that today, you all feel a little bit of love. Thanks for reading.

我想用这种积极的情绪感染大家。只要你想世界就会变得美好，同样的你也可以成为更好的人。也许你已经足够好了。那么好运，要保持不要放弃。我希望我的分享能够让你感觉到一点小温柔。

Being Thankful Despite The Odds

不管未来怎样，我都要过得快乐。

My name is Judy and I am doing a GoFundMe campaign for my mom, everyone knows her as, Kelly.

我叫朱迪，我为我妈妈参加了一个“去找到我”的活动，每个人都因此认识她，凯利。

Despite everything, she felt it important to make and deliver fruit gift baskets to all of the doctors and rehab facility offices a couple days ago, just to say "Thank you" for helping her.

尽管如此艰难，她还是认为，在前几天给所有医生和康复办公室的工作人员制作果篮并送给他们，是非常重要的，一切只为了对帮助她的人说声“谢谢”。

She has been in bed since as it wiped her out for days.

从她被隔离有一段时间开始，她就一直卧床。

She continues to struggle everyday.

她仍然坚持每天与病魔抗争。

She tries to find the little things she is thankful for and I think this helps her continue to put one foot in front of the other.

She's a trooper! My mom and I are so grateful and appreciative of everyone's help and support so far.

Up to this point, with what we have raised, we have been able to pay some of the bills so far including one of the rehab center bills. Yeah!

说到这里，在筹集到的善款的帮助下，到现在为止我们已经能够付得起一些账单了，包括一笔来自康复中心的账单。太好了!

But, we still have a lot more bills and collection company notices to pay.

但是，我们仍然有许多账单和讨债公司的催款要还。

Reaching our goal would help decrease her enormous stress and worry that I know cannot be helping her recover and get stronger.

实现我们的目标会帮助减轻妈妈的巨大压力和担忧，我知道这些东西是不会帮她恢复和变得坚强的。

Asking for help, especially in such a public forum, is very difficult for both of us.

寻求帮助，尤其是在这样一个公共平台上，对我们来说太难了。
