Wonderful Teacher
With a special gift for learning
And with a heart that deeply cares,
You add a lot of love
To everything you share,
And even though
You mean a lot,
You'll never know how much,
For you helped
To change the world
Through every life you touched.
You sparked the creativity
In the students whom you taught,
And helped them strive for goals
That could not be bought,
You are such a special teacher
That no words can truly tell
However much you're valued
For the work you do so well.

『叄』 有沒有適合高一學生閱讀的英語美文
Just for today 就為了今天 Just for today I will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life problem at once. I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime. Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said，that "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be." Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes. Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out: If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don't want to do—just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt: they may be hurt, but today I will not show it. Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit，and try not to improve or regulate anybody but myself. Just for today I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision. Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life. Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful，and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me. 就為了今天，我將盡力只度過今天而不立刻去解決終身的問題。對一件令我沮喪而又必須堅持一輩子的事，我只能堅持十二個小時。 就為了今天，我會很快樂。亞伯拉罕-林肯說過，「大多數人都是決定想怎麼高興就怎麼高興。」這已經被認為是真理。 就為了今天，我會做自我調整適應事物本來的面目，而不是想方設法使每一件事滿足自己的慾望。當機會來臨的時候我會抓住它。 就為了今天，我會盡力心強志堅。我會學習，學一些有用的東西。我不會做一個精神上的流浪漢。我會讀一些需要努力、思考和注意力集中的東西。 就為了今天，我會用三種方法來磨煉我的靈魂。我會做對某人有利的事但不能被發現，若有人發現了就不算數。我將會做至少兩件我不願做的事情——只為了磨練。我不會讓任何人感到我的感情受到了傷害：它們可能受到了傷害，但今天我不想表現出來。 就為了今天，我會過得很愜意。看起來我達到了最佳狀態，穿著得體、講話謙虛、行為禮貌、一點不吹毛求疵，盡量改進和調節自己而不是別人。 就為了今天，我會制定一個計劃，我也許不會嚴格地遵守它，但我一定要有計劃。我會避免兩種錯誤：倉促行事和優柔寡斷。 就為了今天，我將會獨自靜靜地呆上半小時放鬆。在這半小時里，某個時刻，我會日後對我的生活有個更好的看法。 就為了今天，我將不再害怕。尤其我不會再害怕享受美麗的事物，並且相信我給予世界的，世界也會給予我。
『肆』 跪求英文美文5篇!!!
一：Love Is Not Like Merchandise
A reader in Florida, apparently bruised by some personal experience, writes in to complain, "If I steal a nickel's worth of merchandise, I am a thief and punished; but if I steal the love of another's wife, I am free."
This is a prevalent misconception in many people's minds---that love, like merchandise, can be "stolen". Numerous states, in fact, have enacted laws allowing damages for "alienation of affections".
But love is not a commodity; the real thing cannot be bought, sold, traded or stolen. It is an act of the will, a turning of the emotions, a change in the climate of the personality.
When a husband or wife is "stolen" by another person, that husband or wife was already ripe for the stealing, was already predisposed toward a new partner. The "love bandit" was only taking what was waiting to be taken, what wanted to be taken.
We tend to treat persons like goods. We even speak of the children "belonging" to their parents. But nobody "belongs" to anyone else. Each person belongs to himself, and to God. Children are entrusted to their parents, and if their parents do not treat them properly, the state has a right to remove them from their parents' trusteeship.
Most of us, when young, had the experience of a sweetheart being taken from us by somebody more attractive and more appealing. At the time, we may have resented this intruder---but as we grew older, we recognized that the sweetheart had never been ours to begin with. It was not the intruder that "caused" the break, but the lack of a real relationship.
On the surface, many marriages seem to break up because of a "third party". This is, however, a psychological illusion. The other woman or the other man merely serves as a pretext for dissolving a marriage that had already lost its essential integrity.
Nothing is more futile and more self-defeating than the bitterness of spurned love, the vengeful feeling that someone else has "come between" oneself and a beloved. This is always a distortion of reality, for people are not the captives or victims of others---they are free agents, working out their own destinies for good or for ill.
But the rejected lover or mate cannot afford to believe that his beloved has freely turned away from him--- and so he ascribes sinister or magical properties to the interloper. He calls him a hypnotist or a thief or a home-breaker. In the vast majority of cases, however, when a home is broken, the breaking has begun long before any "third party" has appeared on the scene.
譯文：愛情不是商品
佛羅里達州的一位讀者顯然是在個人經歷上受過創傷, 他寫信來抱怨道: 「如果我偷走了五分錢的商品, 我就是個賊, 要受到懲罰, 但是如果我偷走了他人妻子的愛情, 我沒事兒。」
這是許多人心目中普遍存在的一種錯誤觀念——愛情, 像商品一樣, 可以 「偷走」。實際上，許多州都頒布法令，允許索取「情感轉讓」賠償金。
但是愛情並不是商品；真情實意不可能買到，賣掉，交換，或者偷走。愛情是志願的行動，是感情的轉向，是個性發揮上的變化。
當丈夫或妻子被另一個人「偷走」時，那個丈夫或妻子就已經具備了被偷走的條件，事先已經准備接受新的伴侶了。這位「愛匪」不過是取走等人取走、盼人取走的東西。
我們往往待人如物。我們甚至說孩子「屬於」父母。但是誰也不「屬於」誰。人都屬於自己和上帝。孩子是託付給父母的，如果父母不善待他們，州政府就有權取消父母對他們的託管身份。
我們多數人年輕時都有過戀人被某個更有誘惑力、更有吸引力的人奪去的經歷。在當時，我們興許怨恨這位不速之客---但是後來長大了，也就認識到了心上人本來就不屬於我們。並不是不速之客「導致了」決裂，而是缺乏真實的關系。
從表面上看，許多婚姻似乎是因為有了「第三者」才破裂的。然而這是一種心理上的幻覺。另外那個女人，或者另外那個男人，無非是作為借口，用來解除早就不是完好無損的婚姻罷了。
因失戀而痛苦，因別人「插足」於自己與心上人之間而圖報復，是最沒有出息、最自作自受的樂。這種事總是歪曲了事實真相，因為誰都不是給別人當俘虜或犧牲品——人都是自由行事的，不論命運是好是壞，都由自己來作主。
但是，遭離棄的情人或配偶無法相信她的心上人是自由地背離他的——因而他歸咎於插足者心術不正或迷人有招。他把他叫做催眠師、竊賊或破壞家庭的人。然而，從大多數事例看，一個家的破裂，是早在什麼「第三者」出現之前就開始了的。
二：放慢你的腳步
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street，
going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out
from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw
something.
As his car passed， one child appeared， and a brick smashed into the Jag's
side door. He slammed on the brakes and spun the Jag back to the spot from where
the brick had been
thrown.
He jumped out of the car, grabbed some kid and pushed him up against a parked
car， shouting， "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are
you doing?"Building up a head of steam， he went on"That's a new car and that
brick you threw is gonna cost a lot of money. Why did you do
it?"
「Please， mister， please， I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do!」pleaded
the youngster." It's my brother，" he said. "He rolled off the curb and fell out
of his wheelchair and I can't lift him
up.
Sobbing， the boy asked the executive， "Would you please help me get him back
into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for
me."
Moved beyond words， the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in
his throat. He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his
handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts， checking to see that everything was
going to be
okay.
"Thank you， sir. And God bless you，" the grateful child said to him. The man
then watched the little boy push his brother to the sidewalk toward their
home.
It was a long walk backs to his Jaguar... a long， slow walk. He never did
repair the side door. He kept the dent to remind him not to go through life so
fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your
attention.
Life whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart. Sometimes,when you don't
have the time to listen,it's your choice: Listen to the whispers of your soul or
wait for the brick!
Do you sometimes ignore loved ones because your life is too fast and busy
leaving them to wonder whether you really love
them?
譯文：一位年輕的總裁，以有點快的車速，開著他的新車子經過住宅區的巷道。他必須小心游戲中的孩子突然跑到路中央，所以當他覺得小孩子快跑出來時，就要減慢車速。
就在他的車經過一群小朋友的時候，一個小朋友丟了一塊磚頭打到了他的車門，他很生氣的踩了煞車並後退到磚頭丟出來的地方。
他跳出車外，抓了那個小孩，把他頂在車門上說：「你為什麼這樣做，你知道你剛剛做了什麼嗎？」
接著又吼道：「你知不知道你要賠多少錢來修理這台新車，你到底為什麼要這樣做？」
小孩子求著說：「先生，對不起，我不知道我還能怎麼辦？」他接著說：「因為我哥哥從輪椅上掉下來，我沒辦法把他抬回去。」
那男孩啜泣著說：「你可以幫我把他抬回去嗎？他受傷了，而且他太重了我抱不動。」
這些話讓這位年輕的總裁深受感動，他抱起男孩受傷的哥哥，幫他坐回輪椅上。並拿出手帕擦拭他哥哥的傷口，以確定他哥哥沒有什麼大問題。
那個小男孩感激地說：「謝謝你，先生，上帝保佑你。」 然後他看著男孩推著他哥哥回去。
年輕總裁返回的路變的很漫長，他也沒有修他汽車的側門。他保留著車上的凹痕就是提醒自己。生活的道路不要走的太匆忙，否則需要其他人敲打自己來注意生活的真諦。
當生命想與你的心靈竊竊私語時，若你沒有時間，你有兩種選擇：傾聽你心靈的聲音或讓磚頭來砸你！
請問你是否曾因為生活太快、太忙碌而忽略了你所愛的人，然後讓他們開始開始懷疑起你是不是真的愛他們呢？
三：Facing the Sea With Spring Blossoms—HaiZi
From tomorrow on,I will be a happy man.
Grooming,chopping and traveling all over the world.
From tomorrow on,I will care foodstuff and vegetable.
Living in a house towards the sea, with spring
blossoms.
From tomorrow on,write to each of my dear ones.
Telling them of my happiness.
What the lightening of happiness has told me.
I will spread it to each of them.
Give a warm name for every river and every mountain.
Strangers,I will also wish you happy.
May you have a brilliant future!
May you lovers eventually become spouses!
May you enjoy happiness in this earthly world!
I only wish to face the sea, with spring blossoms.
譯文：面朝大海，春暖花開—海子
從明天起，做一個幸福的人
喂馬，劈柴，周遊世界
從明天起，關心糧食和蔬菜
我有一所房子，面朝大海，春暖花開
從明天起，和每一個人通信
告訴他們我的幸福
那幸福的閃電告訴我的
我將告訴每一個人
給每一條河每一座山取一個溫暖的名字
陌生人，我也為你祝福
願你有一個燦爛的前程
願有情人終成眷屬
願你們在塵世獲得幸福
我只願面朝大海，春暖花開
四：True Nobility
In a calm sea every man is a pilot.
But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life at all.Take the lot of the happiest - it is a tangled yarn.Bereavements and blessings,one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns. Even death itself makes life more loving. Men come closest to their true selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and loss.
In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.
I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without. In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.
To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance.There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
譯文： 真正的高貴
在風平浪靜的大海上,每個人都是領航員。
但只有陽光沒有陰影,只有快樂沒有痛苦,根本不是真正的生活.就拿最幸福的人來說,他的生活也是一團纏結在一起的亂麻。痛苦與幸福交替出現,使得我們一會悲傷一會高興。甚至死亡本身都使得生命更加可愛。在人生清醒的時刻,在悲傷與失落的陰影之下,人們與真實的自我最為接近。
在生活和事業的種種事務之中，性格比才智更能指導我們，心靈比頭腦更能引導我們，而由判斷獲得的剋制、耐心和教養比天分更能讓我們受益。
我一向認為，內心生活開始更為嚴謹的人，他的外在生活也會變得更為簡朴。在物慾橫流的年代，但願我能向世人表明：人類的真正需求少得多麼可憐。
反思自己的過錯不至於重蹈覆轍才是真正的悔悟。高人一等並沒有什麼值得誇耀的。真正的高貴是優於過去的自已。
五：行如其人
It was a sunny Saturday afternoon in Oklahoma City. My friend and proud father Bobby Lewis was taking his two little boys to play miniature golf. He walked up to the fellow at the ticket counter and said, "How much is it to get in?"
The young man replied, "$3.00 for you and $3.00 for any kid who is older than six. We let them in free if they are six or younger. How old are they?"
Bobby replied, "The lawyer's three and the doctor is seven, so I guess I owe you $6.00."
The man at the ticket counter said, "Hey, Mister, did you just win the lottery or something? You could have saved yourself three bucks. You could have told me that the older one was six; I wouldn't have known the difference." Bobby replied, "Yes, that may be true, but the kids would have known the difference."
As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "Who you are speaks so loudly I can't hear what you're saying." In challenging times when ethics are more important than ever before, make sure you set a good example for everyone you work and live with.
譯文：
行如其人
這是奧克拉荷馬城的一個晴朗的星期六下午。我的朋友巴比·路易斯，一位令人敬佩的父親，帶著他的兩個小兒子去玩迷你高爾夫。他走向售票處，向售票員問道：「進去需要花多少錢？」
那個年輕人回答道：「你，3美元；6歲以上的兒童，3美元。6歲以下的兒童免費。他們多大了？」
巴比回答：「律師，3歲；醫生，7歲。所以我想我應該付給你6美元。」
那個售票的說：「嘿，先生，你是剛贏了彩票還是怎麼了？你本可以省下3美元的。你可以告訴我，最大的6歲。我根本看不出來。」巴比回答：「對，那可能行得通，但是這些孩子會知道這其中的差別。」
就像拉爾夫·沃爾多·愛默生說的那樣：「你本身要比你所說的話重要。」在這個道德比以往任何時候都重要的年代裡，你最好給和你一起你生活和工作的人樹立一個良好的榜樣。

YOUTH
By Samuel Ullman 塞繆爾·厄爾曼
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not amatter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of thewill, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is thefreshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often existsin a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by anumber of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles thesoul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the springback to st.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being』s heart the lure ofwonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what』s next and the joy ofthe game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is awireless
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.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows ofcynicism 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, thereis hope you may die young at 80.
Transforming Obstacles into Benefits

A group of frogs was traveling through the woods and two of themfell into a deep pit. Immediately, all the other frogs in the groupgathered around the pit and watched as the imprisoned frogs tried tojump out. The frogs on top could see that the pit was very deep and itlooked as if there was no way out, so they started yelling at the twofrogs in the pit to give up. "The pit is too deep. You're as good asdead," the chorus of frogs said. When the trapped frogs kept trying,the crowd yelled louder, "Give up. You're as good as dead." After awhile, one of the exhausted frogs took heed to what the others weresaying, and fell down and died.
But amazingly, the second frog kept jumping as hard as she coulddespite the negative remarks of those that kept yelling at her toaccept the inevitable and just die. Finally, with one valiant leap, shemade it out of the pit!
This amazing result occurred because the second frog was deaf annable to hear what the others had been saying. She thought they hadbeen cheering her on the entire time they were yelling! What she hadmistakenly perceived as encouragement inspired her to try harder andsucceed against all odds. And that made all the difference!
With a positive mindset, and being deaf to others' opinions, thesecond frog made use of such negativity to overcome obstacles and reachher goals by using it as encouragement, instead of being influenced byothers like the first frog, who failed to develop her potential tostrive for survival. Thus, when we surmount others' criticism, ridiculeor cynical comments, we can do anything we set our minds to, just asthe second frog did. But, if we are not deaf like this frog, who couldnot be influenced by others e to a physical condition, we need the Wisdom to guide us to the proper way, so as not to be blindly guided byworldly opinion.

The Importance of Keeping Optimistic
Honourable judges, ladies and gentlemen,
Good afternoon! Today I would like to talk about the importance of
keeping optimistic. When we encounter difficulties in life, we notice that
some of us choose to bury their heads in the sand. Unfortunately, however,
this attitude will do you no good, because if you will have no courage
even to face them, how can you conquer them? Thus, be optimistic, ladies
and gentlemen, as it can give you confidence and help you see yourself
through the hard times, just as Winston Churchill once said, 「An optimist
sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in
every opportunity.」
Ladies and Gentlemen, keeping optimistic, you will be able to realize,
in spite of some hardship, there』s always hope waiting for you, which will
lead you to the ultimate success. Historically as well as currently, there
are too many optimists of this kind to enumerate. You see, Thomas Edison
is optimistic; if not, the light of hope in his heart could not illuminate
the whole world. Alfred Nobel is optimistic; if not, the explosives and
the prestigious Nobel Prize would not have come into being. And Lance
Armstrong is also optimistic; if not, the devil of cancer would have
devoured his life and the world would not see a 5-time winner of the Tour
De France.
A rose may be beautiful, or maybe not; that depends on your attitude
only, and so does success, so does life. Hindrances and difficulties do
exist, but if you are optimistic, then they are only episodes on your long
way to the throne of success; they are more bridges than obstacles! Now I
prefer to end my speech with the great British poet Shelley』s lines: 「If
winter comes, can spring be far behind?」 Thank you!
保持樂觀的重要性
尊敬的評委、女士們、先生們：
下午好！今天我想談一談保持樂觀的重要性。
我們注意到，當在生活中遇到困難時，我們中的有些人選擇逃避它們。但令人遺憾的是，這樣的態度對你沒有任何好處，因為如果你連面對它們的勇氣都沒有的話，你怎麼去征服它們呢？因此，樂觀起來吧，女士們、先生們，因為它會帶給你信心，幫助你渡過難關。正如溫斯頓·丘吉爾所說，「樂觀者在每次災難中都看到機遇；悲觀者在每次機遇中都看到災難」。
女士們，先生們，困難是存在的，但如果你保持樂觀，你就會意識到永遠有希望在等著你，它會把你領向最終的成功。不管是歷史上還是現實中，這樣的樂觀者總是不勝枚舉。你看，托馬斯·愛迪生是樂觀的，如果不是的話，他心中那希望的明燈就不能照亮整個世界；阿爾弗雷德·諾貝爾是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那炸葯和享有很高聲望的諾貝爾獎就不會誕生；蘭斯·阿姆斯特朗也是樂觀的，如果不是的話，那癌症的病魔早已吞噬了他的生命，這個世界就會少了一位五屆環法自行車賽冠軍得主.
玫瑰花可能很美，也可能不美，這，僅僅取決於你的態度；而成功也如此，人生也如此。困難和阻礙的確存在，但是如果你很樂觀的話，那它們就僅僅是我們通向勝利之冠的漫長道路上的小插曲；與其說它們是障礙，不如說它們是橋梁！此刻，我想以偉大的英國詩人雪萊的一句詩來作為我的結尾：「冬天來了，春天還會遠嗎?」

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.
微笑
我認為微笑是一樣重要的象陽光。 微笑是象陽光，因為它可能使人愉快和有一個早晨好。 如果您不是愉快的，您能微笑，您然後將感覺愉快。 某人也許說， 「但是我不感到愉快」。 然後我會說， 「請微笑，您，當您愉快地是愉快或戲劇與您的朋友。 您真正地再將是愉快的」。
微笑可能讓您有更多朋友。如此我說，微笑是象花。 它將給您幸福。
