This circumstance was a growing attachment beeen her eldest girl and the brother of Mrs John Dashwood
a gentleman-like and pleasing young man
who was introduced to their acquaintance soon after his sister's establishment at Norland
and who had since spent the greatest part of his time there
这桩事就出在她大女儿和约翰.达什伍德夫人的弟弟之间,两人渐渐萌发了爱慕之情。那位弟弟是个很有绅士派头的逗人喜爱的年轻人,他姐姐住进诺兰庄园不久,就介绍他与她们母女结识了。从那以后,他将大部分时间都消磨在那里。
Some mothers might have encouraged the intimacy from motives of interest
for Edward Ferrars was the eldest son of a man who had died very rich; and some might have repressed it from motives of prudence
for
except a trifling sum
the whole of his fortune depended on the will of his mother But Mrs Dashwood was alike uninfluenced by either consideration It was enough for her that he appeared to be amiable
that he loved her daughter
and that Elinor returned the partiality It was contrary to every doctrine of her's that difference of fortune should keep any couple asunder who were attracted by resemblance of disposition; and that Elinor's merit should not be acknowledged by every one who knew her
was to her prehension impossible
有些做母亲的从利害关系出发,或许会进一步撮合这种密切的感情,因为爱德华.费拉斯乃是一位已故财主的长子;不过,有些做母亲的为了慎重起见,也许还会遏制这种感情,因为爱德华除了一笔微不足道的资产之外,他的整个家产将取决于母亲的遗嘱。可是达什伍德太太对这两种情况都不予考虑。对她来说,只要爱德华看上去和蔼可亲,对她女儿一片钟情,而埃丽诺反过来又钟情于他,那就足够了。因为财产不等而拆散一对志趣相投的恋人,这与她的伦理观念是格格不入的。埃丽诺的优点竟然不被所有认识她的人所公认,简直叫她不可思议。
Edward Ferrars was not remended to their good opinion by any peculiar graces of person or address He was not handsome
and his manners required intimacy to make them pleasing He was too diffident to do justice to himself; but when his natural shyness was overe
his behaviour gave every indication of an open
affectionate heart His understanding was good
and his education had given it solid improvement But he was neither fitted by abilities nor disposition to answer the wishes of his mother and sister
who longed to see him distinguished --as--they hardly knew what They wanted him to make a fine figure in the world in some manner or other His mother wished to interest him in political concerns
to get him into parliament
or to see him connected with some of the great men of the day Mrs John Dashwood wished it likewise; but in the mean while
till one of these superior blessings could be attained
it would have quieted her ambition to see him driving a barouche But Edward had no turn for great men or barouches All his wishes centered in domestic fort and the quiet of private life Fortunately he had a younger brother who was more promising
她们之所以赏识爱德华.费拉斯,倒不是因为他人品出众,风度翩翩,他并不漂亮,那副仪态嘛,只有和他熟悉了才觉得逗人喜爱。他过于腼腆,这就使他越发不能显现本色了。不过,一旦消除了这种天生的羞怯,他的一举一动都表明他胸怀坦率,待人亲切。他头脑机灵,受教育后就更加聪明。但是,无论从才智还是从意向上看,他都不能使他母亲和姐姐称心如意,她们期望看到他出人头地-比如当个-她们也说不上当个啥。她们想让他在世界上出出这样或那样的风头。他母亲希望他对政治发生兴趣,以便能跻身于议会,或者结攀一些当今的大人物。约翰,达什伍德夫人抱有同样的愿望,不过,在这崇高理想实现之前,能先看到弟弟驾着一辆四轮马车,她也就会心满意足了。谁想,爱德华偏偏不稀罕大人物和四轮马车,他一心追求的是家庭的乐趣和生活的安逸。幸运的是,他有个弟弟比他有出息。

这些诗的主要目的,是在选择日常生活里的事件和情节,自始至终竭力采用人们真正使用的语言来加以叙述或描写,同时在这些事件和情节上加上一种想象的光彩,使日常的东西在不平常的状态下呈现在心灵面前,最重要的是从这些事件和情节中真实地而非虚浮地探索我们的天性的根本规律——主要是关于我们在心情振奋的时候如何把各个观念联系起来的方式,这样就使这些事件和情节显得富有趣味。我通常都选择微贱的田园生活作题材,因为在这种生活里,人们心中主要的热情找着了更好的土壤,能够达到成熟境地,少受一些拘束,并且说出一种更纯朴和有力的语言,因为在这种生活里,我们的各种基本情感共同存在于一种更单纯的状态之下,因此能让我们更确切地对它们加以思考,更有力地把它们表达出来,因为田园生话的各种习俗是从这些基本情感萌芽的,并且由于田园工作的必要性,这些习俗更容易为人了解,更能持久,最后,因为在这种生话里,人们的热情是与自然的美而永久的形式合而为一的。我又采用这些人所使用的语言(实际上去掉了它的真正缺点,去掉了一切可能经常引起不快或反感的因素),因为这些人时时刻刻是与最好的外界东西相通的,而最好的语言本来就是从这些最好的外界东西得来的;因为他们在社会上处于那样的地位,他们的交际范围狭小而又没有变化,很少受到社会上虚荣心的影响,他们表达情感和思想都很单纯而不矫揉造作。因此,这样的语言从屡次的经验和正常的情感产生出-来,比起一般诗人通常用来代替它的语言,是更永久、更富有哲学意味的。一般诗人认为自己愈是远离人们的同情,沉溺于武断和任性的表现方法,以满足自已所制造的反复无常的趣味和欲望。就愈能给自己和自己的艺术带来光荣。
但是,我也知道,现在有几个作家偶尔在自己的诗中采用了一些琐碎而又鄙陋的思想和语言,因而遭到了一致的反对,我也承认.这种缺点只要存在,比起矫揉造作或生硬改革,更使作家丧失名誉,可是同时我认为,这种缺点就全部看来并不是那样有害。这本集子里的诗至少有一点和这些诗不同,即是,这本集子里每一首诗都有一个有价值的目的。这不是说,我通常作诗,开始就正式有一个清楚的目的在脑子里;可是我相信,这是沉思的习惯加强了和调整了我的情感,因而当我描写那些强烈地激起我的情感的东西的时候,作品本身自然就带有着一个目的。如果这个意见是错误的,那我就投有权利享受诗人的称号了。一切好诗都是强烈情感的自然流露。这个说法虽然是正确的,可是凡有价值的诗,不论题材如何不同,都是由于作者具有非常的感受性,而且又深思了很久。因为我们的思想改变着和指导着我们的情感的不断流注,我们的思想事实上是我们已往一切情感的代表,我们思考这些代表的相互关系,我们就发现什么是人们真正重要的东西;如果我们重复和继续这种动作,我们的情感就会和重要的题材联系起来。久而久之,如果我们本来具有强烈的感受性,我们就会养成这样的心理习惯,只要盲目地和机械地服从这种习惯的引导,我们的描写事物和表露情感在性质上和彼此联系上都必定会使读者的理解力有某种程度的提高,他的情感也必定会因之增强和纯化。
我也说过,这本集子星的诗每首都有一个目的。另外我还须说明,这些诗与现在一般流行的诗有一个不同之点,即是,在这些诗中,是情感给予动作和情节以重要性,而不是动作和情节给予情感以重要性。
…………
关于这些诗的题材和目的,我已说了这么多,现在我请求读者让我告诉他一些有关这些诗的风格的情形,免得他格外责备我不曾作我决不想作的事情。读者会看出,这本集子里很少把抽象观念比拟作人,这种用以增高风格而使之高于散文的拟人法,我完全加以摈弃。我的目的是摹仿,并且在可能范围内,采用人们常用的语言;拟人法的确不是这种语言的自然的或常有的部分。拟人法事实上只是偶尔由于热情的激发而产生的辞藻,我曾经把它当作这样的辞藻来使用,但是我反对把它当作某种风格的人为的手法,或者把它当作韵文作家按照某种特权所享有的一种自己的语言。我希望读者得到有血有肉的作品作为伴侣,使他相信我这样做,会使他感到兴趣。别的人走着不同的途径,也同样会使读者感到兴趣,我决不干涉他们的主张,但是我希望提出我自己的主张。在这本集子里,也很少看见通常所称为的诗的词汇,我费了很多力气避免这种词汇,正如普通作者费很多力气去制造这种词汇;我所以要这样做,理由己经在上面讲过了,因为我想使我的语言接近人们的语言,并且我要达表的愉快又与许多人认为是诗的正当目的的那种愉快十分不同。既然不能份外地仔细,我就无法让读者对于我所要创造的风格有着更确切的了解,我只能告诉他我时常都是全神贯注地考察我的题材,所以,我希望这些诗里没有虚假的描写,而且我表现种种思想时所使用的语言,都分别适合于每一思想的重要性。这样的尝试必然会获得一些东西,因为这样做有利于一切好诗的一个共同点,就是合情合理。然而要这样做,我就必须丢掉许多历来认为是诗人们应该继承的词句和词藻。我又认为最好是进一步约束自己,不去使用某些词句,因为这些词句虽然是很适合而且优美的,可是被劣等诗人愚蠢地滥用以后,便使人十分讨厌,以致任何联想的艺术都无法加以征服。
…………
诗人这个字眼是什么意思呢?诗人是什么呢?他是向谁讲话呢?我们从他那里得到什么语言呢?一一诗人是以一个人的身份向人们讲话。他是一个人,比一般人具有更敏锐的感受性,具有更多的热忱和温情,他更了解人的本性,而且有若更开阔的灵魂;他喜欢自己的热情和意志,内在的活力使他比别人快乐得多;他高兴观察宇宙现象中的相似的热情和意志,并且习惯于在没有找到它们的地方自己去创造。除了这些特点以外,他还有一种气质,比别人更容易被不在眼前的事物所感动,仿佛这些事物都在他的面前似的,他有一种能力,能从自己心中唤起热情,这种热情与现实事件所激起的很不一样,但是(特别是在令人高兴和愉快的一般同情心范围内),比起别人只由于心灵活动而感到的热情,则更象现实事件所激起的热情,他由于经常这样实践,就获得一种能力,能更敏捷地表选自己的思想和感情,特别是那样的一些思想和感情,它们的发生并非由于直接的外在刺激,而是出于他的选择,或者是他的心灵的构造。
不论我们以为最伟大的诗人具有多少这种能力,我们总不能不承认这种能力给诗人所提示的语言在生动上和真实上总常常比不过实际生活中的人们的语言,实际生活中的人们是处于热情的实际紧压之下,而诗人则在自己心中只是创造了或自以为创造了这些热情的影子。
不管我们怎样赞美诗人的禀赋,我们总看得出,当他描写或摹仿热情的时候,他的工作比起人们实在的动作和感受中所有的自由和力量,总是多少有些机械。所以,诗人希望把自己的情感接近他所描写的人们的情感,并且暂时完全陷入一种幻觉,竭力把他的情感和那些人的情感混在一起,并且合而为一,因为想到他的描写有一个特殊的目的,即使人愉快的目的,有时才把这样得来的语言稍为改动一下。于是,他就实行我所主张的选择原则了。他依据这种选择原则,抛弃热情中使人厌恶不快的东西,他觉得无须去装饰自然或增高自然;他愈加积极地实行这个原则,他就愈加深信,他的从想象或幻想得来的文字是不能同从现实和真实里产生的文字相比的。

有利有弊,要辩证的看待。错误的不节制上网有害,正确节制上网有利。
有害的一方面:
一,互联网对青少年的人生观、价值观和世界观形成的构成潜在威胁。互联网是一张无边无际的"网",内容虽丰富却庞杂,良莠不齐,青少年在互联网上频繁接触西方国家的宣传论调、文化思想等,这使得他们头脑中沉淀的中国传统文化观念和我国主流意识形态形成冲突,使青少年的价值观产生倾斜,甚至盲从西方。长此以往,对于我国青少年的人生观和意识形态必将起一种潜移默化的作用,对于国家的政治安定显然是一种潜在的巨大威胁。
二,互联网使许多青少年沉溺于网络虚拟世界,脱离现实,也使一些青少年荒废学业。与现实的社会生活不同,青少年在网上面对的是一个虚拟的世界,它不仅满足了青少年尽早尽快占有各种信息的需要,也给人际交往留下了广阔的想象空间,而且不必承担现实生活中的压力和责任。虚拟世界的这些特点,使得不少青少年宁可整日沉溺于虚幻的环境中而不愿面对现实生活。而无限制地泡在网上将对日常学习、生活产生很大的影响,严重的甚至会荒废学业。
三,互联网中的不良信息和网络犯罪对青少年的身心健康和安全构成危害和威胁。当前,网络对青少年的危害主要集中到两点,一是某些人实施诸如诈骗或性侵害之类的犯罪;另一方面就是**垃圾对青少年的危害。据有关专家调查,因特网上非学术性信息中,有47%与色情有关, 网络使色情内容更容易传播。据不完全统计,60%的青少年虽然是在无意中接触到网上**信息的,但自制力较弱的青少年往往出于好奇或冲动而进一步寻找类似信息,从而深陷其中。调查还显示,在接触过网络上色情内容的青少年中,有90%以上有性犯罪行为或动机。
另外,中学生对自己的行为尚不完全具备判断和驾驭能力,好奇心常常会摧毁他们有限的自控力,因而很难做到自觉抵制网上色情、暴力、欺诈等不良信息的诱惑和侵害,容易导致道德沦丧,荒废学业,社会适应能力下降,甚至走上自杀、犯罪的道路。具体表现在以下几个方面:
1、网上许多内容不健康,严重影响青少年的身心发展。互联网所引发的心理健康问题,较常见的有焦虑症、过动症、行为失调症、饮食失调症、自闭症、强迫症等
2、上网时间太长,严重影响了青少年的身体健康。部分中学生反映,自上网后,视力明显下降,胸部、腰部经常疼痛。
3、无节制地上网浪费大量时间、大量的金钱,加重了父母的负担。
有利的一方面:
第一,可以开阔视野。因特网信息量大,信息交流速度快,自由度强,实现了全球信息共享,在网上可以随意获得自己的需求,在网上浏览世界,认识世界,了解世界最新的新闻信息,科技动态,在网上交流、交友的自由化,使人们交往的领域空前地宽广,极大地开阔了们的视野,给人们学习、生活带来了巨大的便利和乐趣。
第二,可以加强对外交流。网络创造了一个虚拟的新世界,在这个新世界里,每一名成员可以超越时空的制约,十分方便地与相识或不相识的人进行联系和交流,讨论共同感兴趣的话题,由于网络交流的“虚拟”性,避免了人们直面交流时的摩擦与伤害,从而为人们情感需求的满足和信息获取提供了崭新的交流场所。上网可以进一步扩展人们对外交流的时空领域,实现交流、交友的自由化。
第三,可以促进个性化发展。世界是丰富多彩的,人的发展也应该是丰富多彩的。因特网就是一个提供无限多样的发展机会的环境。人们可以在网上找到自己发展方向,也可以得到发展的资源和动力。他利用因特网就可以学习、研究乃至创新,这样的学习是最有效率的学习。
第四,可以促进学业。因特网上的资源可以帮助学生找到合适的学习材料,甚至是合适的学校和教师,这一点已经开始成为现实。这里值得提出的是,有许多学习困难的学生,学电脑和做网页却一点也不叫苦,可见,他们的落后主要是由于其个性类型和能力倾向不适从某种教学模式。可以说,因特网为这些“差生”提供了一个发挥聪明才智的广阔天地。
第五,拓展了当今教育的空间。因特网的信息量大、交流速度快,随着时代的发展越来越吸引更多的人。
How can you buy or sell the sky, the warmth of the land The idea is strange to us
If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them
ALL SACRED
Every part of this earth is sacred to my people Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every clearing and humming insect is holy in the memory and experience of my people The sap which courses through the trees carries the memories of the red man The white man's dead forget the country of their birth when they go to walk among the stars Our dead never forget this beautiful earth, for it is the mother of the red man We are part of the earth and it is part of us The perfumed flowers are our sisters; the deer, the horse, the great eagle, these are our brothers The rocky crests, the juices in the meadows, the body heat of the pony, and man - all belong to the same family
NOT EASY
So, when the Great Chief in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land, he asks much of us The Great Chief sends word he will reserve us a place so that we can live comfortably to ourselves He will be our father and we will be his children So we will consider your offer to buy our land But it will not be easy For this land is sacred to us This shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is not just water but the blood of our ancestors If we sell you land, you must remember that it is sacred, and you must teach your children that it is sacred and that each ghostly reflection in the clear water of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father
ALL SACRED
The rivers are our brothers, they quench our thirst The rivers carry our canoes, and feed our children If we sell you our land, you must remember, and teach your children, that the rivers are our brothers, and yours, and you must henceforth give the rivers the kindness you would give any brother We know that the white man does not understand our ways One portion of land is the same to him as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs
The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on He leaves his father's graves behind, and he does not care He kidnaps the earth from his children, and he does not care His father's grave, and his children's birthright, are forgotten He treats his mother, the earth, and his brother, the sky, as things to be bought, plundered, sold like sheep or bright beads His appetite will devour the earth and leave behind only a desert
I do not know Our ways are different from your ways The sight of your cities pains the eyes of the red man But perhaps it is because the red man is a savage and does not understand
There is no quiet place in the white man's cities No place to hear the unfurling of leaves in spring, or the rustle of an insect's wings But perhaps it is is because I am a savage and do not understand
The clatter only seems rto insult the ears And what is there to life if a man cannot hear the lonely cry of the whippoorwill or the arguments of the frogs around a pond at night I am a red man and do not understand The Indian prefers the soft sound of the wind darting over the face of a pond, and the smell of the wind itself, cleaned by a midday rain, or scented with the pinon pine
PRECIOUS
The air is precious to the red man, for all things share the same breath - the beast, the tree, the man, they all share the same breath
The white man does not seem to notice, the air he breathes Like a man dying for many days, he is numb to the stench
But if we sell you our land, you must remember that the air is precious to us, that the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also receives his last sigh And if we sell you our land, you must keep it apart and sacred, as a place where even the white man can go to taste the wind that is sweetened by the meadow's flowers
ONE CONDITION
So we will consider your offer to buy our land If we decide to accept, I will make one condition: the white man must treat the beasts of this land as his brothers I am a savage and I do not understand any other way I have seen a thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairie, left by the white man who shot them from a passing train I am a savage and I do not understand how the smoking iron horse can be more important than the buffalo that we kill only to stay alive What is man without the beasts If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of spirit For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man All things are connected
THE ASHES
You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfathers So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of our kin Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the earth is our mother Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves This we know: the earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth This we know
All things are connected like the blood which unites one family All things are connected Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth Man did not weave the web of life: he is merely a strand in it Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself Even the white man, whose God walks and talks with him as friend to friend, cannot be exempt from the common destiny
We may be brothers after all
We shall see
One thing we know, which the white man may one day discover - our God is the same God You may think now that you own Him as you wish to own our land; but you cannot He is the God of man, and His compassion is equal for the red man and the white This earth is precious to Him, and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its Creator The whites too shall pass; perhaps sooner than all other tribes Contaminate your bed, and you will one night suffocate in your own waste But In your perishing you will shine brightly, fired by the strength of the God who brought you to this land and for some special purpose gave you dominion over this land and over the red man
That destiny is a mystery to us, for we do not understand when the buffalos are all slaughtered, the wild horses are tamed, the secret corners of the forest heavy with scent of many men, and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires
Where is the thicket Gone
Where is the eagle Gone
The end of living and the beginning of survival
中文翻译《西雅图宣言》
印第安索瓜米西族酋长·西雅图
你怎能把天空、大地的温馨买下?我们不懂。
若空气失去了新鲜,流水失去了晶莹,你还能把它买下?
我们红人,视大地每一方土地为圣洁。在我们的记忆里,在我们的生命里,每一根晶亮的松板,每一片沙滩,每一撮幽林里的气息,每一种引人自省、鸣叫的昆虫都是神圣的。树液的芳香在林中穿越,也渗透了红人自亘古以来的记忆。
白人死后漫游星际之时,早忘了生他的大地。红人死后永不忘我们美丽的出生地。因为,大地是我们的母亲,母子连心,互为一体。绿意芬芳的花朵是我们的姊妹,鹿、马、大鹰都是我们的兄弟,山岩峭壁、草原上的露水、人身上、马身上所散发出的体热,都是一家子亲人。
华盛顿京城的大统领传话来说,要买我们的地。他要的不只是地。大统领说,会留下一块保护地,留给我们过安逸的日子。这么一来,大统领成了我们的父亲,我们成了他的子女。
我们会考虑你的条件,但这买卖不那么容易,因为,这地是圣洁的。溪中、河里的晶晶流水不仅是水,是我们世代祖先的血。若卖地给你,务请牢记,这地是圣洁的,务请教导你的子子孙孙,这地是圣洁的。湖中清水里的每一种映象,都代表一种灵意,映出无数的古迹,各式的仪式,以及我们的生活方式。流水的声音不大,但它说的话,是我们祖先的声音。
河流是我们的兄弟,它解我们的渴,运送我们的独木舟,喂养我们的子女。若卖地给你,务请记得,务请教导你的子女,河流是我们的兄弟,你对它,要付出爱,要周到,像爱你自己的兄弟一样。
白人不能体会我们的想法,这点,我知道。
在白人眼里,哪一块地都一样,可以趁夜打劫,各取所需,拿了就走。对白人来说,大地不是他的兄弟,大地是他的仇敌,他要一一征服。
白人可以把父亲的墓地弃之不顾。父亲的安息之地,儿女的出生之地,他可以不放在心上。在他看来,天、大地、母亲、兄弟都可以随意买下、掠夺,或像羊群或串珠一样卖出。他贪得无厌,大口大口吞食土地之后,任由大地成为片片荒漠。
我不懂。
你我的生活方式完全不同。红人的眼睛只要一看见你们的城市就觉疼痛。白人的城里没有安静,没地方可以听到春天里树叶摊开的声音,听不见昆虫振翅作乐的声音。城市的噪音羞辱我们的双耳。晚间,听不到池塘边青蛙在争论,听不见夜鸟的哀鸣。这种生活,算是活着?
我是红人,我不懂。
清风的声音轻轻扫过地面,清风的芳香,是经午后暴雨洗涤或浸过松香的,这才是红人所愿听愿闻的。
红人珍爱大气:人、兽、树木都有权分享空气,靠它呼吸。白人,似从不注意人要靠空气才能存活,像坐死多日的人,已不能辨别恶臭。若卖地给你,务请牢记,我们珍爱大气,空气养着所有的生命,它的灵力,人人有份。
风,迎着我祖父出生时的第一口气,也送走它最后一声的叹息。若卖地给你,务请将它划为圣地,使白人也能随着风尝到牧草地上加强的花香。
务请教导你的子女,让他们知道,脚下的土地,埋着我们祖先骨骸;教你子弟尊崇大地,告诉他们,大地因我们亲族的生命而得滋润;告诉他们,红人怎样教导子女,大地是我们的母亲,大地的命运,就是人类的命运,人若唾弃大地,就是唾弃自己。
我们确知一事,大地并不属于人;人,属于大地,万物相互效力。也许,你我都是兄弟。等着看,也许,有一天白人会发现:他们所信的上帝,与我们所信的神,是同一位神。
或许,你以为可以拥有上帝,象你买一块地一样。其实你办不到,上帝,是全人类的神,上帝对人类怜恤平等,不分红、白。上帝视大地为至宝,伤害大地就是亵渎大地的创造者。白人终将随风消失,说不定比其他种族失落的更快,若污秽了你的床铺,你必然会在自己的污秽中窒息。
肉身因岁月死亡,要靠着上帝给你的力量才能在世上灿烂发光,是上帝引领你活在大地上,是上帝莫明的旨意容你操纵白人。
为什么会有这种难解的命运呢?我们不懂。
我们不懂,为什么野牛都被戮杀,野马成了驯马,森林里布满了人群的异味,优美的山景,全被电线破坏、玷污。
丛林在哪里?没了!
大老鹰在哪里?不见了!
生命已到了尽头,
是偷生的开始。
3小学语文课文《这片土地是神圣的》
对我们这个民族来说,这片土地的每一部分都是神圣的。 每一处沙滩,每一片耕地,每一座山脉,每一条河流,每一根闪闪发光的松针,每一只嗡嗡鸣叫的昆虫,还有那浓密丛林中的薄雾,蓝天上的白云,在我们这个民族的记忆和体验中,都是圣洁的。 我们是大地的一部分,大地也是我们的一部分。青草、绿叶、花朵是我们的姐妹,麋(mí)鹿、骏马、雄鹰是我们的兄弟。树汁流经树干,就像血液流经我们的血管一样。我们和大地上的山峦河流、动物植物共同属于一个家园。 溪流河川中闪闪发光的不仅仅是水,也是我们祖先的血液。那清澈湖水中的每一个倒影,反映了我们的经历和记忆;那潺潺的流水声,回荡着我们祖辈的亲切呼唤。河水为我们解除干渴,滋润我们的心田,养育我们的子子孙孙。河水运载我们的木舟,木舟在永流不息的河水上穿行,木舟上满载着我们的希望。 如果我们放弃这片土地,转让给你们,你们一定要记住:这片土地是神圣的。河水是我们的兄弟,也是你们的兄弟。你们应该像善待自己的兄弟那样,善待我们的河水。 印第安人喜爱雨后清风的气息,喜爱它拂过水面的声音,喜爱风中飘来的松脂的幽香。空气对我们来说也是宝贵的,因为一切生命都需要它。 如果我们放弃这片土地,转让给你们,你们一定要记住:这片土地是神圣的。空气与它滋养的生命是一体的,清风给了我们的祖先第一口呼吸,也送走了祖先的最后一声叹息。同样,空气也会给我们的子孙和所有的生物以生命。你们要照管好它,使你们也能够品尝风经过草地后的甜美味道。 如果我们放弃这片土地,转让给你们,你们一定要记住:这片土地是神圣的。你们一定要照顾好这片土地上的动物。没有了动物,人类会怎样?如果所有的动物都死去了,人类也会灭亡。降临到动物身上的命运终究也会降临到人类身上。 告诉你们的孩子,他们脚下的土地是祖先的遗灰,土地存留着我们亲人的生命。像我们教导自己的孩子那样,告诉你们的孩子,大地是我们的母亲。任何降临在大地上的事,终究会降临在大地的孩子身上。 我们热爱大地,就像初生的婴儿眷恋母亲温暖的怀抱一样。你们要像我们一样热爱它,照管它。为了子孙后代,你们要献出全部的力量和情感来保护大地。 我们深知:大地不属于人类,而人类是属于大地的。

每一代人都有他们不同的生活习惯,每一代人都有不同的思维方式,于是“代沟”就悄然形成了下面,是我为你整理的有关父母与孩子代沟的英语作文,希望对你有帮助!
有关父母与孩子代沟的英语作文篇1Generation gap refers to the misunderstanding between the old and young The term came into fashion after the 1980s However, in recent years, the phenomenon is getting more and more fierce
代沟指的是老人和年轻人之间的误解。这个词在20世纪80年代就开始流行。然而,近年来,这种现象是越来越激烈。
How does generation gap come into being The first reason is that the two generations have grown up in different ages, thus they have different attitudes toward life Secondly, due to having little in common with each other, they are unwilling to sit down and talk face to face Besides, as modern life is so stressful, both of them are so busy with their study or work that they have not enough time to exchange their ideas
代沟是如何产生的呢第一个原因是这两代人是在不同时代长大的,所以他们对生活的态度是不同的。其次,由于由于彼此之间很少有共同之处,所以他们都不愿意坐下来面对面交谈。此外,由于现代生活的压力很大,大家都忙于学习或者工作,以至于都没有时间来交流彼此的想法。
To bridge the generation gap is not easy at all, but we can do something to shorten it For one thing, children should respect their parents as well as accept their good advice For another, parents should not only show their love and care to the kids, but also support their good life view As long as the old and young can understand each other, it would be more harmonious in family and world
架起代沟的桥梁并不容易,但是我们可以做些事情来减小代沟。一方面,孩子们应该尊重他们的父母并接受他们的建议。另一方面,父母不仅要展示他们对孩子的爱和照顾,也要支持他们良好的人生观。只要老人和年轻人能够互相理解,家庭与世界之间会变得更加和谐。
有关父母与孩子代沟的英语作文篇2According to the variety of social background, personal experience and personal emotion, differernt people have different opinions towards things Thus, there is no doubt that generation gap exists everywhere We always find that there are big differences between us and the old generation We always regard the old are outdated, while they think us are crazy They can’t bear the dress we like, the fashion we pursue or even our childish thinking Instead, we could put up with their standpat thingking and their “feudal rulers” Thus, the generation gap becomes more and more obvious and serious However, why don’t we realize that opinions can be changed, while people can’t So, we can think in an other way, learn to accept It is certain that we can narrow the generation gap to live a more harmonious life
由于社会背景,个人的经历和个人情感的不同,不同的人对事情有不同的看法。因此,毫无疑问代沟随处可见。 我们总是发现我们和老一代之间有很大的差异。我们总是认为他们思想守旧,而他们却觉得我们疯狂。他们不能忍受我们喜欢的衣服,我们追求的时尚甚至是我们幼稚的思维方式。相反,我们觉得他们思想保守,“封建专制”。因此,代沟越来越明显和严重。但是,为什么我们没有意识到想法是可以改变的,而人却是不可以的。所以,我们可以尝试换位思考,学会去接受。可以肯定的是,我们可以缩小代沟过上更和谐的生活。
有关父母与孩子代沟的英语作文篇3The generation gap refers to the difference in attitude toward thing or the lack of understanding between young people and older folks
In families as well as in society, the young and the older may not agree with each other on this and that from time to time Young people would llke to make as much money as they could and spend as much money as they could earn while older folks are easily satisfied with what they earn and save as much as possible Young people llke the exciting and deafening pop music while older folks prefer melodious folk-songs or classic music A boy and a glrl today may fall in love with each other as quick as lightning, while their parents or grand parents might trudge over a long distance before they kissed each other and became lovers when they were young
However, we should not be amazed at the generation gap,for it is quite natural in the development of society The world is a changing world, in which everything keeps changing, generations of human beings included And changes lead to progress
