谎言已揭穿了…………The rumor has revealed

From: http://wwwhxencom/englisharticle/yingyugushi/2012-02-21/168964html

Most people need to hear those "three little words" I love you Once in a while, they hear them just in time

大多数人需要听到那“三个小字”——我爱你。有时他们就会在最需要的时候听到。

I met Connie the day she was admitted to the hospice ward, where I worked as a volunteer Her husband, Bill, stood nervously nearby as she was transferred from the gurney to the hospital bed Although Connie was in the final stages of her fight against cancer, she was alert and cheerful We got her settled in I finished marking her name on all the hospital supplies she would be using, then asked if she needed anything

我在康尼住进收容所病房的那天见到了她。我在那儿当义工。把她从轮床抬上病床时，她的丈夫比尔焦虑不安地站在旁边。虽然康尼处于和癌症搏斗的晚期，但她仍然神智清醒，精神愉快。我们把她安顿好。我在医院提供给她使用的所有用品上标上她的名字，然后问她是否需要什么。

"Oh, yes," she said, "would you please show me how to use the TV I enjoy the soaps so much and I don't want to get behind on what's happening" Connie was a romantic She loved soap operas, romance novels and movies with a good love story As we became acquainted, she confided how frustrating it was to be married 32 years to a man who often called her "a silly woman"

“啊，是的，”她说，“请告诉我怎么用电视好吗我非常喜欢肥皂剧，想随时跟上进展情况。”康尼是个浪漫的人。她酷爱肥皂剧、浪漫小说和讲述美好爱情故事的**。随着我们越来越熟，她向我吐露说，跟一个经常叫她“傻女人”的男人生活了32年有多么沮丧。

"Oh, I know Bill loves me," she said, "but he has never been one to say he loves me, or send cards to me" She sighed and looked out the window at the trees in the courtyard "I'd give anything if he'd say 'I love you,' but it's just not in his nature"

“唉，我知道比尔爱我，”她说道，“可是他从来不说他爱我，也不给我寄贺卡。”她叹了口气，朝窗外庭院里的树望去。“如果他说声‘我爱你’，我愿意付出一切，可这根本不是他的性格。”

Bill visited Connie every day In the beginning, he sat next to the bed while she watched the soaps Later, when she began sleeping more, he paced up and down the hallway outside her room Soon, when she no longer watched television and had fewer waking moments, I began spending more of my volunteer time with Bill

比尔每天都来探望康尼。一开始，康尼看肥皂剧，他就坐在床旁。后来，她睡的时候多了，比尔就在屋外走廊里踱来踱去。不久，康尼不再看电视了，醒的时候也少了，我开始花更多的义工时间和比尔在一起。

He talked about having worked as a carpenter and how he liked to go fishing He and Connie had no children, but they'd been enjoying retirement by traveling, until Connie got sick Bill could not express his feelings about the fact that his wife was dying

他谈到他一直是个木工，他多么喜欢钓鱼。他和康尼没有孩子，但他们四处旅游，享受着退休生活，直到康尼得病。对他妻子病危这一事实，比尔无法表达他的感受。

One day, over coffee in the cafeteria, I got him on the subject of women and how we need romance in our lives; how we love to get sentimental1 cards and love letters

一天，在自助餐厅喝咖啡时，我设法和比尔谈起女人这个话题，谈到生活中我们多么需要浪漫，多想收到充满柔情蜜意的卡片和情书。

"Do you tell Connie you love her" I asked (knowing his answer), and he looked at me as if I was crazy

“你跟康尼说你爱她吗”我明知故问。他瞧着我，就好像我有神经病。

"I don't have to," he said "She knows I do!"

“我没有必要说，”他说道。“她知道我爱她!”

"I'm sure she knows," I said, reaching over and touching his hands rough, carpenter's hands that were gripping the cup as if it were the only thing he had to hang onto "but she needs to hear it, Bill She needs to hear what she has meant to you all these years Please think about it"

“我肯定她知道，”我说。我伸出手，触摸着他那双木工粗糙的手。这双手紧握着杯子，似乎它是他需要依附的惟一东西——“可是她需要听到它，比尔。她需要听到所有这些年来她对你意味什么。请你考虑考虑。”

We walked back to Connie's room Bill disappeared inside, and I left to visit another patient Later, I saw Bill sitting by the bed He was holding Connie's hand as she slept The date was February 12

我们走回康尼的房间。比尔进了屋，我走开去看望另一个病人。后来，我看见比尔坐在床边。康尼入睡了，他握着她的一只手。那天是2月12日。

Two days later I walked down the hospice ward at noon There stood Bill, leaning up against the wall in the hallway, staring at the floor I already knew from the head nurse that Connie had died at 11 AM

两天后的中午时分，我顺着收容所病房过道向前走着。比尔站在那里，靠着墙，凝视着地面。护士长已经告诉我，康尼在上午11点故去了。

When Bill saw me, he allowed himself to come into my arms for a long time His face was wet with tears and he was trembling Finally, he leaned back against the wall and took a deep breath

比尔看见我后，让我拥抱了他许久。他满脸泪水，浑身颤抖。最后，他向后靠在墙上，深深地吸了一口气。

"I have to say something," he said "I have to say how good I feel about telling her" He stopped to blow his nose "I thought a lot about what you said, and this morning I told her how much I loved her and loved being married to her You shoulda2 seen her smile!"

“我有话非说不可，”他说道。“我得说，对她说出来，感觉真是好极了。”他停下来擤鼻子。“你说的话我想了很多;今天早上我对她说我多么爱她……我多么珍惜和她结为夫妻。你真该看看她的笑容!”

I went into the room to say my own goodbye to Connie There, on the bedside table, was a large Valentine card from Bill You know, the sentimental kind that says, "To my wonderful wife I love you"

我走进康尼的房间，亲自去和她告别 。我看见，床头桌上放着一张比尔给她的大大的情人节贺卡——就是那种充满柔情蜜意的贺卡，上面写着：“给我出色的妻子……我爱你。”

　从前，有位名叫波西卡的年轻女子，她非常美丽。她的名声越来越大，一段时间以后，人们开始传说她的美不是人间所有的，她一定是一位女神于是人们渐渐地不再去爱之神阿芙洛狄特神庙，转而膜拜波西卡。

　Now, Aphrodite was a cry jealous goddess and she grew very angry about PsycheSo she went to find her son, the god, CupidWhen this story took place, Cupid has grown into a very handsome young man but still with the wingsAphrodite asked Cupid to punish PsycheCupid flew down to the Earth He found Psyche sleeping in her room He drew an arrow at hrr but he was startled by her great beauty, and he found himself hopelessly in love with Psyche He just couldn't bring himself to punish her in any way So away he flew This made Aphrodite even angrier with Psyche

　阿芙洛狄特是位嫉妒心很强的女人，她对波西卜大为恼怒于是阿芙洛狄特找来她的儿子，丘比特当这个故事发生时，丘比特已是一个十分英俊的小伙了，当然背上仍长着翅膀阿芙洛狄特要丘比特去惩罚波西卡于是丘比特牡到J‘人间，他发现波西卜正在房间里熟睡他从箭袋单抽出一只箭搭在玄，当他刚看她一眼，就不禁被她的美丽惊呆了。他意识到他已经死心塌地爱上波西长了，他不可能再用任何方式惩罚她，于是便飞走了。这使得阿芙洛狄特对波西卡更为恼怒

　Time went by and Psyche's father realized that his daughter was not like other mortals So he went to sec the oracle an ole woman through whom the god Apollo spoke words of wisdom and truth, and the old woman said:"Psyche is not like other mortal woman and she will not marry a mortal husband Hm husband would be a mon,tcr feared by both god and man And he awaits her on the mountain top” So the family brought Psyche to the top of a nearby mountain, and with tear, in their eyes they left' her there But shortly after her family left, a gentle breeze suddenly came up and lift her right off the mountain top and took her across the、alleys and to another mountain where it set her gently down Up ahead she saw a grove of straight, tall, beautiful trees, and she went in that direction At the end there was a beautiful palace full of gold and ivory and jewels, so wethine too beautiful for a mere mortal "'My lady Psyche”suddenly a voice was heard "I am one the invisible servants of this place And this place is for your joy Your husband-to-be has set it here for youAnd we will fulfill your every wish and desire’"So from then on Psvche began her new life During thr day, she would live in the palace of dreams and wishesAt night, a mysterious husband appeared to spend the night with het until the dawn She never did sec his face But he was gentle and loving and fultilled her every wish for a husband

　时光流逝，波西卡的父亲也意识到他的女儿与众不同，于是他就去找了一位神喻—一位老妇人，她传达阿波罗神饱含智慧和真理的话。她说道:“波西卡和别的凡间女子不同。她不会嫁给凡人。她的丈夫将是神和人都害怕的怪物，他在高山之巅等着她。”于是全家人将波西卡带到附近的一座山峰上，含着眼泪把她留在了那儿她的家人刚离开不久，就突然刮来一阵轻柔的风，风儿裹着她飞离了山顶，越过山谷，将她轻轻放在另一座山顶上她看见前边有一片树林，树木高大、美丽，便朝着树林走去在尽头，有一座由黄金、象牙、珠宝建成的华丽宫殿。对一个凡人来说，它实在是美丽得难以想象。突然，她听到一个声音:“波西卡夫人，我是这座宫殿的隐形仆人这座宫殿是为您而建的，您的未婚夫为您安排了这一切，我们将满足您的每一个愿望和要求”从此，波西卜开始了她的全新的生活。自天，她生活在充满梦幻和希望的宫殿里;夜晚，那位神秘的丈夫就会出现，和她共度良宵直到天明她从未见过他的脸，但作为丈夫，他温柔可爱且满足她的每一个愿望。

　However, once she asked him、why can I not see you Why can I not see your feature,and he replied"I am a god, I am afraid you will fear me rather than love me if you actually could see meAnd therefore would prefer darkness only"She accepted this But as time went by, she grew lonely, and one night, she aid to her husband, "I wish to see my sisters My family must must pink that I'm dead by now" He tried to argue her out of it But at least, as always he paid he would do as she wished

　一次她问他:“为什么我不能看见你呢为什么我不能看见你的容貌呢”他答道:“我是神，我担心如果你真的看见我，你就会害怕我而不爱我因此我宁愿选择黑暗”她接受了这个答复但是随着时间的推移，她日益感到孤单一天晚上，她对丈夫说:’我想见见我的姐妹们我的家人一定认为我已经死了、”他试着劝她改变主意，但是最后，和往常一样，他说他会实现她的愿望

　The next day ,as Psyche's two sisters were walking, picking up some flowers, the gentle wind rose again and lilted the two of them and flew them off to Psyche's palace, where their sister was awaiting them How joyous was that reunion!At the end of day, the sisters partedBut they had planted the seed of suspicion in Psyche's mind That night, as her husband lay sleeping in the pitch black darkness of their room, she held the oil lamp high and approached their bed It wasn"t a fearsome monster In fact, it was a remarkably handsome young man with wings growing from his back I"m sure you've sucssed by now" it was Cupid himsclt" So startled was Psyche at his appearance that she stumbled a bit atd several drops of oil from the lamp spattered out on Cupid"s chest and burned him and he awoke suddenlyWhen he saw her standing there,he knew at once what had happened And he sprang for the window and stared her as he stood then’Yon'vc lost me forever, Psyche I must leave you forever now Love can not live with mistrust"

　第二天，波西卡的两个妹妹正在边走边摘花，一阵清风吹来，将她们带到了波西卡的宫殿，她正在那儿等着呢久别重逢很令人惊喜一天结束后，妹妹们离去了，但是她们在波西卡心里种下了怀疑的种子这天晚上，她丈夫在漆黑的卧室里熟睡时，她拿一盏油灯走近床边一她举起油灯,他哪是可怕的怪物，事实土他是一位非常英俊的青年，背上长着翅膀，我想你现在已经猜出来了，他就是丘比特。波西卡对他的外貌大吃一惊，不慎一个踉跄，几滴油从灯上滴落到了丘比特的胸部，他突然被烫醒了他看见她站在那儿，立刻明自到底发生什么事他跃仁窗台，盯着她说:“你已经永远失去我了，波西仁。我现在必须永远离开你了，没有信任是不会有爱的”

　Before she could speak he spread his wings and flew offAnd the palace disappearedShe began to travel around the countryside trying to find a way back to her husbandShe went through many adventures and at last she found the temple of the Godsshe went inside and lit a candle and got down upon her knees, and she prayed and said: "my husband, you are a god and I know therefore you can hear me I love you with all my soul There's one thing I must say to you" Cupid appeared,"what is it" he asked And she replied "you said you have to leave because I did not crust you But did you trust me"how could I fully love you without letting me know you" and Cupid saw the justice in this "Come with me," he said, and he lifted her in his strong arms and off they flew up the very top of Mount Olympus, home of gods And they went to see Zeus, king of all the gods

　她还没来得及申辩，他已展开翅膀飞走了宫殿也随之消失。她开始在乡间四处寻觅，想找到一条回到她丈夫身边的路她历尽艰险，终于找到了神殿，她走了进去，点燃一只蜡烛，跪在地上祈祷:“夫君啊，你是一位神，我知道你能听见我的话。我全心全意地爱你，有一件事我必须要跟你讲”于是丘比特出现了。“你想说什么”“你说你要离开我是因为我不信任你但你相信我吗如果你不让我完全地了解你，我又如何能完完全全地爱你呢，”丘比特知道她是对的。“跟我来，”他说他用坚实的臂膀抱起她，一起飞向众神之家—奥林匹斯山顶，去见众神之王—宙斯。

　Cupid told the whole story to Father Zeus,and asked hitn to talk to his motherZeus finally persuaded Aphrodite to accept the girlLater Aphrodite herself brought ambrosia, the food and drink of gods and gave them to Psyche and once she had done that, Psyche, too, became immortal and went to live on Mount Olympus with Cupid happily ever after

　丘比特把整件事情的经过告诉父工，并请他跟母亲谈谈。最终，宙斯说阿芙洛狄特。后来阿芙洛狄特亲自带了神水仙肴给波西卡享用、波西卡也获得r永生，从此和丘比特一起幸福地生活在奥林匹斯山上。

　Now,"psyche" is the old Greek word for soul and also for butterfly Perhaps the Greeks knew that the soul could fly as joyfully and beautifully as a butterfly, but only when soul has combined with love

《My love is as a fever》

　　My love is as a fever, longing still

　　For that which longer nurseth the disease,

　　Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill,

　　The uncertain sickly appetite to please

　　My reason, the physician to my love,

　　Angry that his prescriptions are not kept,

　　Hath left me, and I desperate now approve

　　Desire is death, which physic did except

　　Past cure I am, now reason is past care,

　　And frantic-mad with evermore unrest;

　　My thoughts and my discourse as madmen's are,

　　At random from the truth vainly express'd;

　　For I have sworn thee fair and thought thee bright,

　　Who art as black as hell, as dark as night

　　我的爱情像热病,总是渴望

　　能把病情维持得更长久,

　　把能维持疾病的东西当粮食,

　　以满足不正常不健康的胃口

　　为了我没有遵服他的处方,

　　一怒而去,我於绝望之中

　　领悟医家禁忌的肉欲即是死亡

　　理智既已不管,我便无可救药,

　　只得愈益不安的发著狂癫;

　　我像疯人一般的胡想乱道,

　　任意的瞎扯,虚妄的歪缠;

　　我发誓说过你美,以为你皎洁,

　　其实你黑似地狱,暗似昏夜

　七夕节按阴历的，即每年阴历的七月初七，目前被广泛地称之为中国的“情人节”。下面是我为大家收集关于七夕情人节英语故事，欢迎借鉴参考。

　七夕情人节英语故事

　Legend has it that on this evening, Niulang, or the Cowherd, and Zhinu, or the Weaving Maid, meet each other for their annual tryst on a bridge formed by sympathetic magpies over the Milky Way If it happens to rain that night, a Chinese elder might say it is Zhinu weeping after meeting her husband Niulang on the Milky Way

　传说每年农历7月7日的晚上，牛郎(牧牛人)和织女(编织女工)会在由喜鹊搭建在银河之上的桥上重逢。如果那天下雨，中国的老人就会告诉你，牛郎织女在银河两岸流泪。

　This day used to be commemorated as a festival for girls and also for young people in love As the story goes, there was once a cowherd, Niulang, who lived with his elder brother and sister-in-law But his sister-in-law disliked and abused him, and the boy was forced to leave home with only an old cow for company

　The cow, however, was a former god who had violated celestial rules and had been sent to earth in bovine form One day he led Niulang to a lake where fairies came bathe on earth; among them was Zhinu, the most beautiful girl and a skilled seamstress The two fell in love at first sight and were soon married They had a son and a daughter, and their happy life was held up as an example for hundreds of years in China

　Yet in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Deity in Taoism, marriage between a mortal and a fairy was strictly forbidden He sent his empress to fetch Zhinu Niulang grew desperate when he discovered Zhinu had been taken back to heaven Driven by Niulang's misery, the cow told him to turn its hide into a pair of shoes after it died

　The magic shoes whisked off Niulang, who carried his two children in baskets strung from a shoulder pole, off on a chase after the empress The pursuit enraged the empress, who took her hairpin and slashed it across the sky, creating the Milky Way which separated husband from wife But all was not lost An army of magpies, moved by their love and devotion, formed a bridge across the Milky Way to reunite the family Even the Jade Emperor was touched and allowed Niulang and Zhinu to meet once a year on the seventh night of the seventh month It is said that at that night, children can hear the private conversation between the Weaving Maid and the Cowherd under the grape trellis This is how Qixi came to be

　In actuality, the festival can be traced back to the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) People would traditionally look up at the sky and spot a bright star in the constellation Aquila, as well as the star Vega, identified as Niulang and Zhinu The two stars shine on opposite sides of the Milky Way

　Qixi is also known as the "Begging for Skills Festival" or "Daughters' Festival" In the past, girls would hold ceremonies on the day and pray to Zhinu for wisdom, dexterity and a satisfying marriage In some parts of Shandong Province, young women would offer fruit and pastries to her in return for a blessing of intelligence If spiders were seen to weave webs on sacrificial objects, it was believed that Zhinu was offering positive feedback In other parts of China, the custom was for seven close friends to gather to make dumplings They would put into three separate dumplings a needle, a copper coin and a red date, which represented perfect needlework skills, good fortune and an early marriage respectively

　Young women in southern China wove small handicrafts with colored paper, grass and thread Weaving and needlework competitions would be held to see who had the best hands and the brightest mind, prerequisites for being a good wife and mother

　However, these ancient traditions and customs have been slowly dying out Fewer people than ever gaze at the heaven on that day to pick out the two stars shining bright on either side of the Milky Way -- that is, if they even know on which day Qixi falls

　七夕坐看牵牛织女星，是民间的习俗，相传，在每年的这个夜晚，是天上织女与牛郎在鹊桥相会之时。织女是一个美丽聪明、心灵手巧的仙女，凡间的妇女便在这一天晚上向她乞求智慧和巧艺，也少不了向她求赐美满姻缘，所以七月初七也被称为乞巧节。

　人们传说在七夕的夜晚，抬头可以看到牛郎织女的银河相会，或在瓜果架下可偷听到两人在天上相会时的脉脉情话。

　女孩们在这个充满浪漫气息的晚上，对着天空的朗朗明月，摆上时令瓜果，朝天祭拜，乞求天上的女神能赋予她们聪慧的心灵和灵巧的双手，让自己的针织女红技法娴熟，更乞求爱情婚姻的姻缘巧配。过去婚姻对于女性来说是决定一生幸福与否的终身大事，所以，世间无数的有情男女都会在这个晚上，夜静人深时刻，对着星空祈祷自己的姻缘美满。

　七夕节的浪漫传说

　The legend has been handed down for nearly 2 millennia The story has been recorded as far back as the Jin Dynasty (256-420 AD) Poets composed hundreds of verses on the love story and many types of Chinese opera tell the story

　The Chinese people believe that the star Vega(织女星), east of the Milky Way, is Zhi Nu and, at the constellation of Aquila(天鹰座), on the western side of the Milky Way, Niu Lang waits for his wife

　Zhi Nu was said to be the youngest of seven daughters of the Queen of Heaven With her sisters, she worked hard to weave beautiful clouds in the sky, while Niu Lang was a poor orphan cowherd, driven out of his home by his elder brother and his cruel wife

　Niu Lang lamented over his lonely and poor life with an old cow, his only friend and companion The magical cow kindly told him of a way to find a beautiful and nice woman as his life companion

　Under the direction of the cow, Niu Lang went to the riverside on an evening, where the seven fairies slipped out of their heavenly palace to bathe

　He took one of the beautiful silk dresses the fairies had left on the bank When the fairies left the water, the youngest couldn''t find her clothes and had to see her sisters fly back to heaven without her

　Then Niu Lang came out with the dress and asked the youngest fairy, Zhi Nu, to stay with him

　Several years passed on Earth, which were only a few days in heaven Niu Lang and Zhi Nu lived happily together and had two children before the Queen of Heaven discovered Zhi Nu''s absence

　She was so annoyed she had Zhi Nu brought back to heaven Seeing his beloved wife flying in the sky, Niu Lang was terrified He caught sight of the cowhide hanging on a wall The magical cow had told him before dying of old age: "Keep the cowhide(牛皮) for emergency use"

　Putting the cowhide on, he went after his wife with his two children

　With the help of the cowhide, Niu Lang was able to follow Zhi Nu into heaven He was about to reach his wife when the Queen showed up and pulled off her hairpin to draw a line between the two The line became the Silver River in heaven, or the Milky Way

　Zhi Nu went back to the heavenly workshop, going on weaving the clouds But she was so sad, and missed her husband across the Silver River so much that the clouds she weaved seemed sad Finally, the Queen showed a little mercy, allowing the couple to meet once every year on the Silver River

　民间爱情传说之一的牛郎织女的故事。

　七夕节始终和牛郎织女的传说相连，这是一个很美丽，千古流传的爱情故事，是我国四大民间爱情传说之一。

　相传在很早以前，南阳城西牛家庄里有个聪明、忠厚的小伙子，父母早亡，只好跟着哥哥嫂子度日，嫂子马氏为人狠毒，经常虐待他，逼他干很多的活，一年秋天，嫂子逼他去放牛，给他九头牛，却让他等有了十头牛时才能回家，牛郎无奈只好赶着牛出了村。

　……

　一天，天上的织女和诸仙女一起下凡游戏，在河里洗澡，牛郎在老牛的帮助下认识了织女，二人互生情意，后来织女便偷偷下凡，来到人间，做了牛郎的妻子。织女还把从天上带来的天蚕分给大家，并教大家养蚕，抽丝，织出又光又亮的绸缎。

　牛郎和织女结婚后，男耕女织，情深意重，他们生了一男一女两个孩子，一家人生活得很幸福。但是好景不长，这事很快便让天帝知道，王母娘娘亲自下凡来，强行把织女带回天上，恩爱夫妻被拆散。

　牛郎上天无路，还是老牛告诉牛郎，在它死后，可以用它的皮做成鞋，穿着就可以上天。牛郎按照老牛的话做了，穿上牛皮做的鞋，拉着自己的儿女，一起腾云驾雾上天去追织女，眼见就要追到了，岂知王母娘娘拔下头上的金簪一挥，一道波涛汹涌的天河就出现了，牛郎和织女被隔在两岸，只能相对哭泣流泪。他们的忠贞爱情感动了喜鹊，千万只喜鹊飞来，搭成鹊桥，让牛郎织女走上鹊桥相会，王母娘娘对此也无奈，只好允许两人在每年七月七日于鹊桥相会。
