　　英语是按照分布面积而言最流行的语言，但母语者数量是世界第三，仅次于汉语、西班牙语。它是学*最广泛的第二语言，是*60个*国家的官方语言或官方语言之一。下面是小编精心整理的英语小短文（通用15篇），仅供参考，欢迎大家阅读。

　　Adult ceremony maybe is not very familiar for our Chinese. Although in the old time, our country also has the tradition to have * ceremony, now most areas have given it up. It is a ceremony to celebrate the children become *s. In German, * ceremony is a traditional festival with a long history. Everyone reaching the age of fourteen is * in their religious belief and custom. Every April or May, they will dress well to take part in the * ceremony with the companion of their parents or friends. At first, there will be a speech spoken by some respectable people. They will remind the kids of their new rights and duties. And then people will congratulate them become *s. Later the *s will hold dancing party for them. This is the German * ceremony. Except German, there are still some places having * ceremony, which will be similar.

　　**礼对于我们*人来说也许不是很熟悉。虽然在以前，我国也有**仪式的传统，但是现在大部分地区已经摈弃了。这是一个庆祝孩子长大**的仪式。在德国，**礼是一个历史悠久的传统节日。在宗教信仰和*俗里每个年满十四岁的就是**。每年的四月或五月，他们会打扮好在他们的父母或者朋友的陪伴下去参加**礼。首先，会有一个德高望重的人来发言。他们会提醒孩子们新的权利和义务。然后大家就会祝贺他们长大**了。后面人们会为他们举办舞会。这是德国的**礼。除了德国之外，还有一些地方也是存在着相似的**礼。

　　On the surface, Chinatown is prosperous - a "model slum," some have called it - with the lowest crime rate, highest employment and least juvenile delinquency of any city district. Walk through its crowded streets at any time of day, and every shop is doing a brisk and businesslike trade: restaurant after restaurant is booming; there are storefront displays of shiny squids, clawing crabs and clambering lobster; and street markets offer overflowing piles of exotic green vegetables, garlic and ginger root. Chinatown has the feel of a land of plenty, and the reason why lies with the Chinese themselves: even here, in the very core of downtown Manhattan, they have been careful to preserve their own way of dealing with things, preferring to keep affairs close to the bond of the family and allowing few intrusions into a still-insular culture. There have been several concessions to Westerners - storefront signs now offer English translations, and Haagen Dazs and Baskin Robbins ice-cream stores have opened on lower Mott Street - but they can't help but seem

　　incongruous. The one time of the year when Chinatown bursts open is during the Chinese New Year festival, held each year on the first full moon after

　　January 19, when a giant dragon runs down Mott Street to the accompaniment of firecrackers, and the gutters run with ceremonial dyes.

　　Beneath the neighborhood's blithely prosperous facade, however, there is a darker underbelly. Sharp practices continue to flourish, with traditional

　　extortion and protection rackets still in business. Non-union sweatshops - their assembly lines grinding from early morning to late into the evening - are still visited by the US Department of Labor, who come to investigate workers' testimonies of being paid below minimum wage for seventy-plus-hour work weeks. Living conditions are abysmal for the poorer Chinese - mostly recent immigrants and the elderly - who reside in small rooms in overcrowded

　　tenements ill-kept by landlords. Yet, because the community has been

　　cloistered for so long and has only just begun to seek help from city officials for its internal problems, you won't detect any hint of difficulties unless you reside in Chinatown for a considerable length of time.

　　The ray of the warm sunlight told us that it was spring. A lion was sleeping peacefully in the forest.

　　While the lion was fast asleep, a mouse went on top of the lion. The bold mouse played happily on top of the lion. "Yuppie! This is really fun." The mouse ran around thumping and stomping here and there.

　　The lion was not able to sleep with all the racket. The lion knew that there was someone on top of him. So, the lion made a surprise attack and rolled on the ground.

　　And the mouse fell over. When the lion saw the mouse he was relieved and said, "Whew! It was only a mouse."

　　However, far away a fox had seen the scene. The fox laughed mockingly to the lion and said, "You're as big as a mountain and you're afraid of the mouse. You're a coward!" The fox kept making fun of the Lion.

　　Finally the lion spoke, "I wasn't afraid of the mouse. I was only shocked to find a bold enough animal not afraid to run around on top of a lion." When the fox heard this he quietly left.

　　Young people are excited, young people are strong, young people work hard, and young people hope. In another Youth Day approaching, bless you, my dear friend, a young, promising career, young people, happy every day.

　　The youth should stand forward, the youth should fire departments, youth on confidence disclosure date, the youth should innumerable twists and turns into a hero Youth Day!, I wish you a beautiful demonstration, repeatedlyspectacular!

　　The youth is Chaoyang, charming, youth is a horse, the pace of flying, the youth is more than the Pentium, the river, the youth is pine, will become the pillars! Youth Day, may you young, positive youth, promising future!

　　Green Cuicui tree Changchun, one year people often red, dee* bless you: good life such as evergreen trees, like saffron Chang Yan, always in youth, often smiling happy youth day!

　　Youth, a life only once, although the youth have rebellion, impetuous, and also have mistakes, but more youth is enthusiasm, beauty and hope. Youth will have happiness after all, because it has the future! Happy youth day!

　　People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve millions of books, documents and records.

　　Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations1 of government officials and the events during wars?

　　We do it because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen. Sometimes, past records, when understood in the right way, can help us decide what to do and what not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the records of human history.

　　From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations of youth. History records the suffering, the self-denial2, the devotion, and the heroic deeds of people in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really need peace.

　　The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those who promote war, and inspiration to those who seek peace.

　　In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday’s records can keep us from repeating yesterday’s mistakes. And from the pieces of mosaic4 assembled5 by historians come the great murals6 which represent the progress of mankind.

　　A Nail Or A Fly?

　　An old gentleman whose eyesight was failing came to stay in a hotel room with a bottle of wine in each hand. On the wall there was a fly which he took for a nail. So the moment he hung them on, the bottles fell broken and the wine spilt all over the floor. When a waitress discovered what had happened, she showed deep sympathy for him and decided to do him a favor.

　　So the next morning when he was out taking a walk in the roof garden, she hammered a nail exactly where the fly had stayed.

　　Now the old man entered his room. The smell of the spilt wine reminded him of the accident. When he looked up at the wall, he found the fly was there again! He walked to it carefully and slapped it with all his strength. On hearing a loud cry, the kind-hearted waitress rushed in. To her great surprise, the poor old man was there sitting on the floor, his teeth clenched and his right hand bleeding!

　　The first snow came. How beautiful it was, falling so silently all day long, all night long, on the mountains, on the meadows, on the roofs of the living, on the graves of the dead! All white save the river, that marked its course by a winding black line across the landscape; and the leafless trees, duanwenw.com that against the leaden sky now revealed more fully the wonderful beauty and intricacies of their branches. What silence, too, came with the snow, and what seclusion! Every sound was muffled, every noise changed to something soft and musical. No more tramping hoofs, no more rattling wheels! Only the chiming of the sleigh-bells, beating as swift and merrily as the hearts of children.

　　By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 作者：亨利.沃兹沃思.朗费罗

　　翻译：

　　初雪降临，多么美啊！它整日整夜那么静静地飘着，落在山岭上，落在草地上，落在世人的屋顶上，落在逝者的坟墓上。在一片白茫茫之中，只有河流在美丽的画面上划出一道弯弯曲曲的黑线；还有那叶儿落净的树木，映衬着铅灰色的天空，更显得枝丫交错，姿态万千。初雪飘落时，是何等的.宁谧，何等的幽静！一切声响都趋沉寂，一切噪音都化作柔和的音乐。再也听不见马蹄得得，再也听不见车轮辚辚！唯有雪橇的铃铛，奏出和谐的乐声，那明快欢乐的节拍犹如孩子们心房的搏动。

　　Baby frogs went on a picnic in the woods. Getting out of the pond for the first time, they sang merrily.

　　Then, they found a cow grazing in a field. "Oh, my! What is that?" "It is huge!" All of them wondered what kind of animal it was. "Let's ask Daddy."

　　They returned home in a hurry and shouted, "Daddy, we saw a strange animal." "What kind of animal was it?"

　　"It had large horns on its head and its body was way bigger than you. Even if we all add up our power, we can not defeat that animal."

　　The father was curious what the animal looked like. "Really? Was it bigger than my stomach?" "Yes. Much bigger than that!"

　　The father frog blew up his stomach largely, "Well, now, I'm as big as the animal, right?" "No, you are as big as the animal's heel." The father puffed himself up dee* and blew up his stomach enormously.

　　"How about now? Am I as big as the animal, huh?" "No, not even." Thinking he could not be outdone, the father frog puffed up his stomach even more.

　　The father frog's stomach was blown up as big as he could get. Right at that very moment, the father frog's stomach burst with a bang.

　　Behind every successful person, there will be efforts, and the efforts behind the inspirational, inspiring as a motive, so that it can be successful.

　　Some people say that he is a star, perhaps not, back when the road seems, spicy humor humorous playfulness that once bitter tears and heart, and it is obvious that unruly confrontation and fry a grassroots and the fate of the flash; he is a star, when he asked the passion on the fate of the split lock by force with the high spirited heart, in the name of the dream to pluck the stars on the occasion, what is he not a star?

　　He was a single show on the stage - Show Luo.

　　When I was a child, I liked Show Luo very much. He was very imposing on stage. So I wished to be a star when I was young, but my voice was thick and the dance was rotten. It's not a star material.

　　From then on, I thought of Show Luo. Even when he was young, he had no astrology. Even though he was despise and black and fat, he was scolded into a pig. Even though he wrote a letter to a schoolgirl for the first time, he was called back, "well, it's up to you." Even after the debut has been ordered to minimize the occurrence of more shar*, producers expressed his doubts, "how can you be discovered as a singer?"

But those who smile, helpless when Coptis meal, who can really understand!

　　here is no doubt that happiness is the mos

　　t precious thing in the world. Without it, life will be empty and meaningless. If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points. First, health is the secret of happiness (the key to happiness). Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life. Secondly, happiness consists in contentment. A man who is dissatisfied with his

　　present condition is always in distress.

　　Smiling

　　I think smiling is as important as sunshine. Smiling is like sunshine because it can make people happy and have a good day. If you aren?t happy, you can smile, and then you will feel happy. Someone may say, “But I don?t feel happy.” Then I would say, “Please smile as you do when you are happy or play with your friends happily. You will really be happy again.”

　　Smiling can let you have more friends.So I say, smiling is like a flower. It will give you happiness.

　　At every turn we come across its mystery. At each new level we become more of the person we were meant to become. In lonely times, when we pass through a storm of disappointment, we find our faith is unshaken, our strength still strong.

　　英语是按照分布面积而言最流行的语言,但母语者数量是世界第三,仅次于汉语、西班牙语。它是学*最广泛的第二语言,是*60个*国家的官方语言或官方语言之一。下面是小编收集整理的英语阅读小短文作文，欢迎阅读，希望大家能够喜欢。

　　Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the family's only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

　　Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

　　As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.

　　But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Don't you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package!"

　　The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

　　The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

　　An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

　　In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

　　There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

　　I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

　　Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.

　　Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

　　I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful inpiduals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness".

　　But in memoir after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, profound loneliness.

　　The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

　　As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.

　　Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room‘s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

　　They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

　　The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

　　One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn‘t hear the band - he could see it in his mind‘s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

　　Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

　　As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

　　The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

　　A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

　　As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold.

　　Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

　　Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

　　When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

　　With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

　　How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we don't realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

　　Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams, trees and lots of little animals, scurrying about enjoying their lives.

　　The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable, had a great view, and even better, he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him, he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

　　The baby eagle was hungry all the time, but the mother eagle would always come just in time with the food and love and attention he craved. The baby eagle grew strong. His vision grew very sharp. He felt good all the time.

　　Until one day, the mother stopped coming to the nest.

　　The baby eagle was hungry. "I'm sure to die," said the baby eagle, all the time.

　　"Very soon, death is coming," he cried, with tears streaming down his face. Over and over. But there was no one there to hear him.

　　Then one day the mother eagle appeared at the top of the mountain cliff, with a big bowl of delicious food and she looked down at her baby. The baby looked up at the mother and cried "Why did you abandon me? I'm going to die any minute. How could you do this to me?"

　　The mother said, "Here is some very tasty and nourishing food, all you have to do is come get it."

　　"Come get it!" said the baby, with much anger. "How?"

　　The mother flew away.

　　The baby cried and cried and cried.

　　A few days later, "I'm going to end it all," he said. "I give up. It is time for me to die."

　　He didn't know his mother was nearby. She swooped down to the nest with his last meal.

　　"Eat this, it's your last meal," she said.

　　The baby cried, but he ate and whined and whined about what a bad mother she was.

　　"You're a terrible mother," he said. Then she pushed him out of the nest.

　　He fell.

　　Head first.

　　Picked up speed.

The future is a promise, a time that will not come because what we have is only today. When tomorrow comes, it will not be tomorrow any more; it becomes your today. You cannot enjoy tomorrow unless you know how to enjoy your today. If you are to live thirty more years, you are going to experience 10,950 todays.

　　We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.

　　We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.

　　I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder of our lives.

　　The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.

　　Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our businesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.

　　我们可以掌握神秘而不可知的未来，从中创出我们所能想象的任何东西，一如雕刻家可以将未成型的石头刻出雕像一样。

　　我们每个人都是农夫。我们若种下好种子，就会有丰收。倘若种子长得不良且长满杂草，我们就会徒劳无获。如果我们什么也不种，就根本不会有什么收获。

　　A man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put his head out the window to check. As he did so a glaeye fell into his hand.

　　He looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman looking down.

　　Is this yours? he asked.

　　She said, Yes, could you bring it up? and the man agreed.

　　On arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. As she was very attractive he agreed. Shortly afterwards she said, I'm about to have dinner. There's plenty. Would you like to join me?

　　The man hesitated then said, Do you act like this with every man you meet?

　　Everyone is attracted by beauty and beauty is powerful. But what is true beauty? Perhaps you can get the answer from the following story.

　　This morning I went to the market to buy some vegetables with my parents. On the way we all highly praised a young man in western-style clothes and leather shoes who was riding by. But he rode so fast that he knocked an old lady down carelessly.Instead of stopping, he pretended not to see this and rode away quickly. We were all very angry with the young man. To our happiness, a girl in plain dress ran forward at once, helped the lady up and took her home. We all praised the girl.

　　From this we know we cannot judge a person by his appearance. A person who is dressed beautifully may not have a beautiful soul. Only a person who has a beautiful soul is really beautiful.

　　Good morning boys and girls, It’s a great pleasure for me.It’s nice to to give you a speech here. Nowadays mastering a foreign language is very helpful in our daily life. I feel it a great honor to share my opinions about English learning with you. Firstly, I believe it is useful to remember as many sentence patterns as possible. Secondly, we should try our best to read more English newspapers and magazines after class, which helps to improve our reading abilities. Besides, TV programmes are of great help to us. Last but not least, it’s necessary for us to communicate with foreign friends as much as possible and increase our awareness of foreign cultures, which can also help to improve our English.

　　However, sometimees I find it difficult to pronounce some English words correctly. I would appreciate it if someone could give me some advice. Thanks for your attention

　　A man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put his head out the window to check. As he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.

　　He looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman looking down.“Is this yours?” he asked.She said, “Yes, could you bring it up?” and the man agreed.On arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink.

　　Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon! Im very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. I hope you men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .

　　When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80. Thats all ! Thank you!

　　Good afternoon, boys and girls. my name is chen junlei. i'm from qianjia wan. i am 12 years old. i'm a boy, and i am a student. my favorite colour is green. my favorite fruit are apples and watermelons. my favorite foods are pizzas hotdogs and hamburgers.

　　my old friend is zhu jialiang. this is my new friend, zheng jie. look, this is mr. ji, my english teacher. and he is my cousin.

　　look, i have a family photo. this is my grandfather. he's not very old. he is 64. he likes watching tv. this is my grandmother. she's 60. she loves me very much. who's this woman? she's my mother. she is 36. she's very beautiful. who's that man? he's my dad. he's 36, too. he always go to school with me. who's this boy? ha, ha, it's me. he's smart.

　　my speech is over. thank you everyone, goodbye!

　　Let me begin my speech with a replay of scenes familiar to most, if not all, of those present here today. “Mum, I'm sorry, but I need 3,000 yuan for my tuition this year.”

　　“Mum, it is my friend's birthday tomorrow, I must buy her a present.”

　　A world deprived of diversity would be a bland and boring place. The real tragedy is not being short or shy or ugly, but having your identity lost in a world in which everyone is a clone of a model cool boy or a flawless charming girl.

　　Given a choice, I would rather be ugly than live in such a world. I'd rather be a genuine dwarf accompanying a Snow White than be a Snow White among nothing but Snow Whites. I would rather be myself. I would contribute my individual and unique colors to create a more diverse universe. Please, be yourself.

　　“Mum, this jacket was out of fashion long ago, would you do me a favor? ”

　　Take. Take. Take. The relationship between a mother and a child always seems to follow such a pattern. I know my mother is always there for me, providing me with everything I need; from food to clothing, from tuition to pocket money. I never thought twice about all she did until one day she said, “Will there be a time that you'll say you have taken enough from me? ”

　　I received a devastating blow to my self'confidence in the first interview of my college years. I applied to be a host in our Student Acting Troupe and felt confident that I would be accepted. But one of the panel members told me: “You seem inadequate and you are a little vertically'challenged.” My life has never been the same since. I used bigger heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence. But no matter how hard I tried to look the part, there was still something missing. As president of English Club, I organized the rehearsal of Snow White for an English party. Unfortunately, we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf. It had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in English. Suddenly, all eyes turned to me, and I knew I would have to be the dwarf. To my great surprise and delight, once on stage, I was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use. As the dwarf, I was a big hit.

　　Yes, each of us is only one among millions of others, but each of us is an individual and each of us is unique. Cultivating our individuality will transform our lives, making of them a kaleidoscope of new colors and textures.

　　A man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from them. Why? Because there are more false friends than real ones in this world. To have one real friends is better than a hundred false ones. Friends who flatter you to your face are not true friends.

　　We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. On the other hand, we should do our best to a void keeping company with bad people.

　　love is easily perceivable and perceptible. flattery words may be cheatable, but true love and false feelings can easily be distinguished. if the people you love only know how to spend your money, you should be careful of them. everyone can help you spend your money if you give them the chance. never turn your love into the slave of money.

　　love should be selfless, and feelings should be sincere. we shouldn't judge our feelings according to the distance of the relationship. everyone treasures love and nobody can fool himself or the others. a chinese saying goes: real heroes yearn even more for true love, and great men cherish tender love for their children.

　　we are the saint on earth, and should treasure our love, but we should know how much is good and where to stop. since there's no ever-lasting banquet, nor is there an endless love story, we should take the gains and losses of love with perfect composure. there's fragrant grass in every corner of the earth, and you can always find your love in this world.

　　By the time John pulled into the little town, every hotel room was taken. "You've got to have a room somewhere." he pleaded. "Or just a bed--I don't care where."

　　"Well, I do have a double room with one occupant," admitted the manager," and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I'm not sure it'd be worth it to you."

　　"No problem," the tired traveler assured him. "I'll take it."

　　I remember quite clearly now when the story happened. The autumn leaves were floating in 1)measure down to the ground, recovering the lake, where we used to swim like children, under the sun was there to shine. That time we used to be happy. Well, I thought we were. But the truth was that you had been 2)longing to leave me, not daring to tell me. On that precious night, watching the lake, vaguely 3)conscious, you said: “Our story is ending.”

　　The rain was killing the last days of summer. You had been killing my last breath of love, since a long time ago. I still don’t think I’m gonna make it through another love story. You took it all away from me. And there I stand, I knew I was going to be the one left behind. But still I’m watching the lake, vaguely conscious, and I know my life is ending.

　　我仍清晰地记得故事发生的时候。秋叶翻飞，飘落一地。我们曾经孩子般戏水畅游过的小湖盖满落叶，在太阳下闪着光。那时我们幸福过。哦，我是这样认为的。可事实上你早就想离开我，你只是不敢告诉我罢了。在那美丽的夜晚，眼望湖水，恍惚中听见你说：我们的故事已到尽头。

　　雨水扼杀着所剩无几的夏日，而你很久以来也在扼杀我奄奄一息的爱。但我仍不认为自己会再去经历另一段爱情故事。你把一切都带走了。我只有悄然伫立，早已明白自己将会是那个被遗弃的人。而我依然凝望着湖水，恍惚中，我知道生命正离我而去。

　　"I'm going to marry you one day." Beth said to her long time crush Jake. She wore her favorite blue teddy bear shirt. Her four-year-old blue eyes shined in the sun.

　　"No you're not, you're a girl." Jake said.

　　The California afternoon wind blew his light brown hair. Jumping off the monkey bars he laughed back to class.

　　Sitting alone and confused she didn't know what to do. Beth sat high on the monkey bars crying. How can her future husband just leave like that?

　　She was going to get him, but how? "I will not let him get away! I won't! I won't!"

　　15 years later:

　　"I love you, too, Jake." Hanging up the phone she caught her mom smiling. "What?"

　　"When is he coming in from France? He's been there for awhile." She sat down on her black leather couch. The house was made up of different Indian stuff. On the walls were different dream catchers. Her mother was a full blood Cherokee Indian. She passed away when Beth was eight.

　　"He has a lot of schooling to do right now. Maybe this Saturday."

　　Fixing her short overalls she thought of Jake. Who would have thought they were going to date when she turned five?

　　"Is he still living in Colorado?" Her mother Kay wore a white tank top with tan pants. And long blonde hair with pretty blue eyes. She was the most beautiful woman on Earth. And Beth is looking like her by the minute.

　　"Yeah, I hate having a long distance relationship." She plopped on a leather chair.

　　"It's ok baby, you know he loves you more than anything in this world. Love will keep you together."

　　Beth could not help but smile. Her mother is and will always be her best friend.

　　Jake sat in his hotel the school rented for him. School of law. He loved going overseas for everything. But he missed being with Beth. That hurt him the most.

　　Spending the lonely nights in the hotel made him think of how much it would hurt to spend the rest of his life without her in it.

　　Getting up off his bed he went into the bathroom. Watching his reflection in the mirror, all he could think about was Beth. He would leave Thursday, and get there Friday night.

　　Turning off the light he jumped into the cold bed. On a coffee table near his bed rested a frame with them in it. It was taken at a beach about two years ago. It was the best time of their lives.

　　It was Thursday morning and Beth waited for Jake's morning phone call. He would call at eight — it was ten.

　　Beth got out of bed and got her favorite blue tank top. She took off her shirt and screamed at the top of her lungs.

　　"What? What?" Her mother came rushing into her room. Staring at her naked daughter she saw the lump of her breast. "Does it hurt?"

　　Beth could only say "No." Looking at the lump, she cried in pain.

　　"Let's get you to the doctor."

　　"Ok, let me get dressed."

　　Shutting the door behind her, the room became silent. Shaking she put on her shirt, and ran out into the living room.

　　"Mom, where are my blue shorts?"

　　"In the dresser, second drawer."

　　Finishing getting dressed she hopped into her car. Her red mustang drove like a baby.

　　They waited for the doctor to come in. Beth could not begin to think she had cancer. As her mind drifted off her cell phone rang.

　　"Hello?" Her heart skipped a beat, hoping it was Jake.

　　"Hey, how are you?" He asked out of breath.

　　"Could be better. Why didn't you call me this morning?"

　　"Sorry, school got ahold of me today."

　　"Why are you out of breath?" Looking stunned she stared at her mother.

　　"I'm so sorry, he'll call back." Her mother gave Beth a hug.

　　The doctor came in, and greeted his self. "Hello. I'm Kevin Baker." He smiled while examining her breast.

　　Everyone has that period in which they find those who are close to them start to seem annoying .

　　每个人都会经历这样的时期：发现身边那些亲*的人开始变得有点烦了。

　　You suddenly realized that they've always been talking and talking.

　　你会突然意识到，长久以来他们就一直不停地在说啊说。

　　They never stopped.

　　他们从来就没有停过。

　　Some of us get angry with them, thinking they are trying too hard to intervene in our lives.

　　我们中的有些人，会开始变得愤怒，觉得他们对我们的生活介入太多。

　　But don't.
