敘事抒情散文英語美文閱讀
⑴ 請推薦一些英語美文的書，最好是優美的散文
《最美的英文》不錯，我和我同學都看，基本符合你的要求。一般這類書在學校圖書館都能找到。 還有《牛津英語書蟲系列》是短篇小說，依難度而分，其實我個人覺得還是讀小說比較好，更能提高你的閱讀水平。
⑵ 一篇敘事的散文<高中英語>
The Teacher-Student RelationshipA good teacher-student relationship will make learning enjoyable and interesting for the students and teaching worth-while for a teacher.To set up a good teacher-student relationship, a teacher's behaviour is important. The teacher should motivate the students so that they want to learn. A good teacher should be patient, friendly and strict. Remember not to encourage the students by pushing or forcing them. Being too friendly may cause students to become lazy and stop working hard. On the other hand, being too strict may frighten the students. So a teacher should avoid going extremes in treating his students. And teachers should encourage the students to think independently and learn to study by themselves.As for the students, they must always respect their teachers. Students should be eager to learn and willing to work hard. It's important to listen with attention in class and it's more important to learn to raise questions and work out problems in new ways.In conclusion, a good teacher-student relation-ship can be mutually beneficial. The students gain knowledge eagerly and enjoyably and the teacher gains satisfaction from his job.這是談論師生關系的敘事文章，也是熱點話題。
⑶ 求一篇 英文抒情散文。簡單一點最好。
(一）Daylight dies away when the sun sets.
is snowing in great flakes. When I put out my hand from the window a piece of snowflake falls on the centre of my palm.
Peering at her thaw , I feel her permeating into my body bit by bit .I think from here on my heart should be her eternal terminus. I don』t know whether this heavey snow is caused by your missing . How are you doing ?In the real deep night of the
soul all the stars are hiding behind the clouds and licking their wounds silently . Do you also sigh for the fading away of all memory of the past ?
Is the color of butterfly bright in your hometown ? The shower , which is spattering on your face in winter should be called the sleet , shouldn』t it ? and moreover, what should the butterfly , which is struggling against sleet be called ? Do you
think whether she has enred suffering quietly for the sweetness at the last moment ? when she is fluttering in front of you. Do you feel heartbreaking when she is acting in a play and dragging her injured wings . The wind has blown the promise off , however , that gust of wind hasn』t puffed the performance away , which merely belongs to herself. She inlges heself in dancing into the abyss of darkness, going round and round , going round and round .
She is a sweet surrender .
She is fit for being kept in mind .
（二）
Baby , it's raining here. I sit by the window, listening the music and missing you . I hear the voice of rain.it seems as if someone is crying. When will it stop ? Only the alone one can know the mood of the rain.
You took me to the edge of the heaven yesterday . But you rob me of my wings today and let me stand on the ground solely. When I see a view of your back , can you listen my heartfelt prayer?
Your smile are partly hidden and partly visible in the wind. Closing my eyes, I try to pursue the echoes of your voices. You occupy my every day's dream that tears come to my heart.

Warble For Lilac-Time 為丁香花季節而歌唱Warble me now for joy of lilac-time,(returning in reminiscence,)Sort me O tongue and lips for Nature』s sake, souvenirs of earliest summer,Gather the welcome signs,(as children with pebbles or stringing shells,)Put in April and May, the hylas croaking in the ponds, the elastic air,Bees, butterflies, the sparrow with its simple notes,Blue bird and darting swallow, nor forget the high-hole flashing his golden wings,The tranquil sunny haze, the clinging smoke, the vapor,Shimmer of waters with fish in them, the cerulean above,All that is jocund and sparkling, the brooks running,The maple woods, the crisp February days and the sugar-making,The robin where he hops, bright-eyed, brown-breasted,With musical clear call at sunrise, and again at sunset,Or flitting among the trees of the apple-orchard, building the nest of his mate,The melted snow of March, the willow sending forth its yellow-green sprouts,For spring-time is here! the summer is here! and what is this in it and from it?Thou, soul, unloosen』d—the restlessness after I know not what;Come, let us lag here no longer, let us be up and away!O if one could but fly like a bird!O to escape, to sail forth as in a ship!To glide with thee O soul, o』er all, in all as a ship O』er the waters;Gathering these hints, the preludes, the blue sky, the grass, the morning drops of dew,The lilac-scent, the bushes with dark green heart-shaped leaves,Wood-violets, the little delicate pale blossoms called innocence,Samples and sorts not for themselves alone, but for their atmosphere,To grace the bush I love—to sing with the birds,A warble for joy of lilac-time, returning in reminiscence.
英文抒情散文詩欣賞：為丁香花季節而歌唱
為我歌唱丁香花季節的喜悅吧，(它正在懷念中歸來，)為了大自然，請與我一起吧，靈巧的唇舌，初夏的留念，與我一起收集那些可愛的音符，(如孩童收集卵石或成串的貝殼，)將它們放進四月五月，這些池塘里鳴叫的雨蛙，輕快的微風，蜜蜂，蝴蝶，歌聲單調的麻雀，藍鳥和疾飛的燕子，也別忘了那扇著金色翅膀的天宇，那寧靜的彩霞，繚繞的煙靄和水霧，魚兒暢游的湖海的波光，頭上蔚藍的天色，那容光煥發的一切，奔流的小河，那楓樹林，那清新的二月天和釀糖的日子，那跳躍著的、眼睛發亮的褐胸知更鳥，它在日出時清脆悅耳地鳴囀，日落時又歌唱，或在蘋果園的樹木中飛動，給它的愛侶築巢，三月里融化的雪，楊柳剛抽出的嫩綠的柔條，因為春天到了！夏天快來了！它孕育著什麼，又會產生些什麼呢？你，靈魂得到解放——我不知道還在急切地追求什麼；來吧，讓我們不再在這里逗留，讓我們奮起前進！啊，但願一個人能像一隻鳥一樣飛翔！啊，能夠逃逸，像乘著快艇出航！同你的靈魂，越過一切，寓於一切，像一隻船劃過海洋；收集起預示和徵兆，這藍天、野草、清晨的露珠，這丁香花的芬芳，這披著暗綠色心形葉片的灌木林，這木本紫羅蘭，這名叫「天真」的嬌小的淡淡的花卉，這種種的草木不只是為它們自己，而是為了它們的四周，為了裝飾我所愛的叢林——為了與百鳥一起吟哦，唱一支深情的歌，為這回憶中歸來的丁香花季節的歡樂。

⑹ 英語優美散文
--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 亨利.沃茲渥斯.朗費羅
The day is cold,and dark,and dreary;
It rains,and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My though still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still,sad heart!And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
天冷、陰暗、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
藤還攀附著頹垣殘壁，
每來一陣狂風，枯葉附落紛紛，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
我的生活寒冷、陰郁、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
我的思想還糾纏著消逝的往事，
大風里，我的青春希望相繼熄滅，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
安靜吧，憂傷的心！別再悔恨；
烏雲後面太陽依然輝煌燦爛；
你命運和大家的一樣，
每個人一生都得逢上陰雨，
有些日子必然陰暗而沉悶。
Henry David Thoreau/享利.大衛.梭羅
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很偉大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們；可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像聖人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那裡去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。
愛情的見證
Love's Witness
Slight unpremeditated Words are borne
By every common Wind into the Air;
Carelessly utter'd, die as soon as born，
And in one instant give both Hope and Fear：
Breathing all Contraries with the same Wind
According to the Caprice of the Mind.
But Billetdoux are constant Witnesses，
Substantial Records to Eternity;
Just Evidences，who the Truth confess,
On which the Lover safely may rely；
They're serious Thoughts，digested and resolv'd；
And last，when Words are into Clouds devolv'd.
不加思索的輕率話語，
被每一次平凡的呼吸載入空氣；
隨便說說，剛出口即消失，
一瞬間給人希望和恐懼：
同一氣息呼出萬般矛盾心腸，
追隨心靈無常的遐想。
但情書則是恆常的見證，
直至永恆的實體記錄；
公道的證物，它道出真誠，
戀人能在其上安心依附；
它們是嚴肅的思想，經過深思熟慮；
當話語在雲外消失，它們還將延續。

從不說他做不到
We Never Told Him He Couldn't Do It
My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally - but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in surgery, casts and braces. By the time he was eight, you wouldn't know he had a problem when you saw him walk .
The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do ring play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn't be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn't know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others - perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn't tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn't know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day - even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. "Okay," he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldn't run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didn't know.
Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade - the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldn't expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn't do it. We never told him he couldn't do it...so he didn't know. He just did it.
從不說他做不到
我的兒子瓊尼降生時，他的雙腳向上彎彎著，醫生向我們保證說經過治療，小瓊尼可以像常人一樣走路，但像常人一樣跑步的可能性則微乎其微。瓊尼3歲之前一直在接受治療，和支架、石膏模子打交道。七八歲的時候，他走路的樣子已讓人看不出他的腿有過毛病。
鄰居的小孩子們做游戲的時候總是跑過來跑過去。毫無疑問小瓊尼看到他們玩就會馬上加進去跑啊鬧的。我們從不告訴他不能像別的孩子那樣跑，我們從不說他和別的孩子不一樣。因為我們不對他說，所以他不知道。
七年級的時候，瓊尼決定參加跑步橫穿全美的比賽。每天他和大夥一塊訓練。也許是意識到自己先天不如別人，他訓練得比任何人都刻苦。訓練隊的前7名選手可以參加最後比賽，為學校拿分。我們沒有告訴瓊尼；也許會落空，所以他不知道。
他堅持每天跑4~5英里。我永遠不會忘記有一次，他發著高燒，但仍堅持訓練。我為他擔心，於是去學校看他，發現他正在一個人沿著長長的林蔭道跑步呢。我問他感覺怎麼樣，"很好。"他說。還剩下最後兩英里。他滿臉是汗，眼睛因為發燒失去了光彩。然而他目不斜視，堅持著跑下來。我們從沒有告訴他不能發著高燒去跑4英里的路，我們從沒有這樣對他說，所以他不知道。
兩個星期後，在決賽前的3天，長跑隊的名次被確定下來。瓊尼是第六名，他成功了。他才是個七年級生，而其餘的人都是八年級生。我們從沒有告訴他不要去期望入選，我們從沒有對他說他不會成功。是的，從沒說起過……所以他不知道，但他卻做到了！

Youth (青春)-----經典背誦美文
Author: Samuel Ullman
譯者：王佐良
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind;
it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees;
it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination,
a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，
而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想像，炙熱的戀情；
青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity,
of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.
This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.
Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.
We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，進取壓倒苟安。
如此銳氣，二十後生而有之，六旬男子則更多見。
年歲有加，並非垂老，理想丟棄，方墮暮年。
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to st.
歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹廢必致靈魂。
憂煩，惶恐，喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。
Whether 60 or 16,
there is in every human being』s heart the lure of wonder,
the unfailing childlike appetite of what』s next and the joy of
the game of living.
In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station:
so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage
and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.
無論年屆花甲，擬或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號，你就青春永駐，風華常存。
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.
一旦天線下降，銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，即使年方二十，實已垂垂老矣；然則只要樹起天線，捕捉樂觀信號，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺年輕。
⑻ 演講一篇抒情英語散文（美文）可以嗎
vThe smile "I was sure that I was to be killed.I became terribly nervous.I fumbled[1] in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes,which had escaped[2]their search.I found one and because of my shaking hands,I could barely get it to my lips.But I had no matches,they had taken those."I looked through the bars at my jailer.He did not make eye contact with me.I called out to him 'Have you got a light?' He looked at me,shrugged [3]and came over to light my cigarette."As he came close and lit the match,his eyes inadvertently locked with mine.At that moment,I smiled.I don't know why I did that.Perhaps it was nervousness,perhaps it was because,when you get very close,one to another,it is very hard not to smile.In any case,I smiled.In that instant,it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts,our two human souls.I know he didn't want to,but my smile leaped through the bars and generated a smile on his lips,too.He lit my cigarette but stayed near,looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile."I kept smiling at him,now aware of him as a person and not just a jailer.And his looking at me seemed to have a new dimension[4] too.'Do you have kids?' he asked." 'Yes,here,here.' I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family.He,too,took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them.My eyes filled with tears.I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again,never have the chance to see them grow up.Tears came to his eyes,too."Suddenly,without another word,he unlocked my cell and silently led me out.Out of the jail,quietly and by back routes,out of the town.There,at the edge of town,he released me.And without another word,he turned back toward the town."My life was saved by a smile." Yes,the smile―the unaffected,unplanned,natural connection between people..I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could recognize each other,we wouldn't be enemies.We couldn't have hate or envy or fear.微笑 「一想到自己明天就沒命了,不禁陷入極端的惶恐.我翻遍了口袋,終於找到一支沒被他們搜走的香煙,但我的手緊張得不停發抖,連將煙送進嘴裡都成問題,而我的火柴也在搜身時被拿走了.「我透過鐵欄望著外面的警衛,他並沒有注意到我在看他,我叫了他一聲：『能跟你借個火嗎?』他轉頭望著我,聳了聳肩,然後走了過來,點燃我的香煙.「當他幫我點火時,他的眼光無意中與我的相接觸,這時我突然沖著他微笑.我不知道自己為何有這般反應,也許是過於緊張,或者是當你如此靠近另一個人,你很難不對他微笑.不管是何理由,我對他笑了.就在這一剎那,這抹微笑如同火花般,打破了我們心靈間的隔閡.受到了我的感染,他的嘴角不自覺地也現出了笑容,雖然我知道他原無此意.他點完火後並沒立刻離開,兩眼盯著我瞧,臉上仍帶著微笑.「我也以笑容回應,彷彿他是個朋友,而不是個守著我的警衛.他看著我的眼神也少了當初的那股凶氣,『你有小孩嗎?』他開口問道.「『有,你看.』我拿出了皮夾,手忙腳亂地翻出了我的全家福照片.他也掏出了照片,並且開始講述他對家人的期望與計劃.這時我眼中充滿了淚水,我說我害怕再也見不到家人.我害怕沒機會看著孩子長大.他聽了也流下兩行眼淚.「突然間,他二話不說地打開了牢門,悄悄地帶我從後面的小路逃離了監獄,出了小鎮,就在小鎮的邊上,他放了我,之後便轉身往回走,不曾留下一句話.「一個微笑居然能救自己一條命.」「是的,微笑是人與人之間最自然真摯的溝通方式.如果我們能用心靈去認識彼此,世間不會有結怨成仇的憾事；恨意、妒嫉、恐懼也會不復存在.背景介紹：《微笑》是法國作家安東尼·聖艾修伯里的作品,聖艾修伯里是名飛行員,二次大戰對抗納粹時被擊落身亡,之前他也曾參加西班牙內戰打擊法西斯分子.他根據這次經驗寫了一篇精彩的故事――《微笑》.他的代表作《小王子》是美國人都很熟悉的童話故事.

Transforming Obstacles into Benefits
By Richard Stewart,Los Angeles, U.S.A. (Originally in English)
美國洛杉磯 理查德．史都華德（原文為英文）
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.

Love is more thicker than forget
More thinner than recall
More seldom than a wave is wet
More frequent than to fail
It is most mad and moonly
And less it shall unbe
Than all the sea which only
Is deeper than the sea
Love is less always than to win
Less never than alive
Less bigger than the least begin
Less littler than forgive
It is most sane and sunly
And more it cannot die
Than all the sky which only
Is higher than the sky
愛情比忘卻厚
比回憶薄
比潮濕的波浪少
比失敗多
它最痴癲最瘋狂
但比起所有
比海洋更深的海洋
它更為長久
愛情總比勝利少見
卻比活著多些
不大於無法開始
不小於諒解
他最明朗最清晰
而比起所有
比天空更高的天空
他更為不朽

There was a young flower in the desert where all was dry and sad looking…… It was growing by itself…… enjoying every day…… and saying to the sun "When shall I be grown up？" And the sun would say "Be patient - Each time I touch you， you grow a little……" She was so pleased. Because she would have a chance to bring beauty to this corner of sand…… And this is all she wanted to do - bring a little bit of beauty to this world.
遍地乾旱、滿目悲涼的沙漠中有朵小花，她獨自生長在那裡，享受著每一天……她問太陽公公「我什麼時候才能長大？」太陽公公總是說「要有耐心—— 我每次撫摸你，你都會長大一點……」小花好開心啊，因為她也有機會為沙漠的一隅增添美麗了……這是她畢生的心願—— 為這個世界增添一絲美麗。
One day the hunter came by - and stepped on her. - She was going to die - and she felt so sad. Not because she was dying - but because she would not have a chance to bring a little bit of beauty to this corner of the desert.
一天，一位獵人經過——正好踩在她身上―― 她快要死了—— 她感到如此悲傷。並不是因為她即將死去，而是因為再沒有機會為沙漠增添一絲美麗了。

偉大的精神看到了她，並且聽到了她的心裡話。……事實上，他在說……她應該活著……他俯下身，撫摸著她—— 給了她生命。

她長成一朵美麗的花……由於她的存在，這沙漠的一隅變得如此美麗。
