当我们生病卧床不起时，是父母在无微不至地照顾着我们;当我们考试考差了，是父母的鼓励着我们;当我们犯了错误，是父母的教育着我们改正错误......

感谢父母在我受到挫折时，鼓励我、安慰我、给我勇气，让我树立自信勇敢地去面对困难。记得一次数学测验，我只考了八十多分。我垂头丧气地回到家，作业也做不好，饭吃不香。妈妈看见我的反常，坐在我的身边和蔼地问我原因。我一五一十把考试的实情告诉了妈妈，令我没想到的是妈妈不但没有批评我，反而安慰我说：“好孩子，一次失败不等于自己就不优秀了，你要好好地分析原因，知道错误到哪里，这就是进步。”听了妈妈的话，我的心情一下子轻松多了。

有一句话说得好“谁言寸草心，报得三春晖”。因此，为了报答辛苦养育我的父母，我现在一定要好好学习，长大后，找一个好的工作，让父母安享晚年。父母为我付出的，我将十倍、百倍的感谢、回报他们，让他们的付出有价值。

导语：你的童年有什么有趣的事情吗?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

I was born in a small county which is poor. Therefore, there were no beautiful clothes or many toys. Before I went to school at six, I only played with my peers nearby. It was such a wonderful period that I would never forget. We always made our toys independently, which cost no money at all. Sometimes, parents would help making toys as well. We could play from morning to night until parents told us to go home for dinner. However, as a rural child, I must help my parents doing farm work in the busy season, such as planting and harvesting. Besides, my mother is a teacher. Therefore, she began to teach me to read and count when I was three, so I had to spend some time I study. Now, remembering it, I feel much happy rather than upset.

参考翻译

我出生在一个贫困的小农村里，因此不能拥有漂亮的衣服和玩具。在我六岁上学之前，我都是和邻居的同龄小朋友玩，那是一段我无法忘怀的快乐的岁月。我们通常都是自己做玩具，不花一分钱，有的时候我们的父母也会给我们做一些玩具。那个时候，我们可以从早晨玩到天黑，直到爸爸妈妈叫我们回家吃饭。但是，作为一个农村的孩子，在农忙的时候我也必须要帮忙家里干些农活，像是种植和收割这些。另外，我的妈妈是一名老师，因此在我三岁的时候她就开始教我识字、算术了，所以我还要花些时间在学习上。现在，回想起这些，我更多的是快乐，而不是烦恼。

这世上有一种人，她值得你用一生去铭记，她能让你一辈子心存感激。就算全世界都说你的不是她也始终相信你能行。每每跌倒摔得很痛，回头看去，她总会轻轻地说上一句：“来，再站起来试一次，你应该是最棒的一个---”无论何时何地，看到她就有种莫名的踏实浮上心头。她，是你的天使。在我心中，李岚芳老师就是这样一个拯救过我的人，是我生命中的天使。

爱她，缘于那次令我无法忘记的期中考试。就在那天，一向自认为数学足够优秀，甚至引以为荣的我，竟得到了生命中的第一个不及格！我的世界就在拿到卷子那一刻，崩塌了。悄悄地折起卷子的一角压住那鲜红的分数，沉浸在惶恐和忧伤中的我没有注意到，有一个温暖的目光将这一切尽收眼底。她让我们写总结，做试卷分析。不知怎的，我竟把所有的心里话倾泻在之上，也许是那炙热的目光让我没有逃避的理由吧。可我没想到，她会找到我，于是有了那次拯救了我的谈话。直到现在，她诚恳得有些发颤的声音依然时时响起在我的耳畔。她说你真的很聪明，说一见面我就预感到早晚你会成为这个班里的领跑者。我没有吐出一个字作为回应。那天的我是一个彻彻底底的失败者，当无边的黑暗吞没着我的世界，当所有人包括我自己都认定我就是一个不折不扣的残兵败将，甚至连我从心里都能感到昔日那个出类拔萃的女孩已永远离我而去时，竟还有一个人这么坚定地相信我还行！从小到大，我都记不得被人夸过多少次聪明，客气也好真心也罢，可那都是在我满载而归，春风得意之时的赞美，早已被记忆的浪花卷入岁月的浩渺云烟，销声匿迹了，只有这次，这“聪明”二字彻底将我从自暴自弃中拯救过来，让我又做回了那个百折不挠的小姑娘。我甚至都无法描述她说这话时的眼神，那种热切的，真挚的，仿佛能看透人心的目光刺得我无法再去躲闪。就是这耀眼的目光让我一瞬间觉得她的头顶有一个美丽的光环，她是一位天使，拯救我的天使。

在天使的陪伴下，我开始了痛苦而漫长的追赶。她见证着我是怎样起起伏伏，却始终缓慢地向上攀登着，直到上个期末一举越过了班级平均分数线。那天，我第一次在她面前由衷地绽开快乐幸福的笑容。还记得当初我兴奋地冲到她面前将卷子右上角那令我欣喜的分数指给她看。她只说了一句：“你会越来越好。”平和的语调中透出一丝难以掩盖的欣慰。我的心再一次悸动，她从来都不逼我考到多少，反而一再地劝我别急慢慢来，可她心里压抑着多少期待多少焦灼啊，直到这次看到我终于走出了困境，她一定想鼓励我，可又怕我从此懈怠，才会说出如此含着夸奖却也满载着希望的话来。这次，我终于可以如释重负得抬起头来直视她含笑的双眼，也许连她自己都不知道那一刻她真的很像一个天使，一个头上带着美丽光环的天使。

只是我忘记了世间还有一个永恒的真理叫做“天下没有不散的宴席”，人生在世，谁都只是谁生命中的过客，难以相伴到永远，即使她是我的天使。难道在她花费一年的光阴和心血将我拯救之后完成了她的使命就必须离开了么？这个分别到来得太意外了，在我还没有准备好离开天使的守护时，命运就这么生生地将我们分开。我一次次地欺骗自己说这不是真的，我还想在她的注视下重返巅峰，还想在她的陪伴下走完十七岁的雨季、十八岁的成人礼，还想在她的期盼下捧回一张烫金的大学录取通知书，直到走进象牙塔---可是当我看到，昔日她那被作业本和教案覆盖的书桌，现在是如此的空空荡荡，看到一位陌生的老师取代了她削瘦的背影，我才清醒过来发现她真的走了。她带走了一切证明她曾经来过存在过的痕迹，却唯独带不走那颤抖的声音，如炬的目光，还有她头顶上天使的光环。

一眨眼2015年的寒假就过去了，作为学生的我们也应该把心情收拾一下了，下面应届毕业生网为准备了这篇关于开学典礼的文章，仅供参考：

各位老师，各位同学：

大家好!

我们又迎来了一个新的学年、新的学期。今天，我很荣幸的的代表高二年级全体同学在这里发言，请允许我代表高二全体同学向各位老师说一声：：老师，你们辛苦了。

时光流逝，斗转星移，昨日高一新生的好奇、新鲜感尚未消歇，今天我们已经带者憧憬与向往走在了奔赴高三的途中。回顾过去的一年，我们的曾经有过多少辉煌与失落，曾经有过多少纵横与跌荡。从懵懂少年到今天的渐趋成熟，我们的每一步，都凝聚着老师的关爱，我们的每一点成功，都浸透着老师的心血。

古人曾叹："年年岁岁花相似，岁岁年年人不同。"今天的二高真可谓大有不同。我校上一届的师兄师姐，在高考中取得了辉煌成绩，在我校的发展史上留下了精彩的一页!他们用艰苦的努力换来了汝南二高的荣誉，作为同学，我们为他们骄傲，与他们同享这份幸福和快乐;与他们也一样满怀对老师、对汝南二高的感激之情。我们虽然没有一流的教学设施，却有着宽松的学习环境;没有华丽的校园，却有着良好的学习氛围，有众多励志、求知、进取的老师的谆谆教诲。我们在学校为我们提供的优越环境中健康成长。我们又怎能不更加勤奋、更加刻苦地为汝南二高的明天奋斗，为祖国的明天奋斗?!

毫无疑问，上届同学取得的佳绩既是最好的激励，也是无声的鞭策。在新的学期来临之际，我们要想的，是如何完善自我，提高自己，以良好的精神状态去迎接我们每个人必须经历的挑战，用更好的成绩回报培育我们的母校，用自己的汗水为汝南二高谱写新的篇章。

在二高，老师将给我们以亲切的关怀和人格的尊重，同时我们也将学会关怀和尊重别人。关怀与被关怀，尊重与被尊重，会造就我们博爱的精神、善良的心灵和感恩的情怀。

在二高，我们将不断形成坚忍不拔的学习品质、掌握科学有效的学习方法、养成良好规范的学习习惯、具备扎实丰厚的科学文化素养。我们会在不断的努力和奋斗中，“享受学习，体验成功”!

在二高，我们将自主参加各类活动，培养自己的权利意识、责任意识、秩序意识、法制意识、自律意识和领袖意识，并由此得到意志的锤炼和人格的养成。

在二高，我们将会有高贵优雅的气质，有自由的精神和独立的人格，有海纳百川的胸怀，有独领风骚的气魄，有敢为天下先的胆略。

亲爱的同学们，汝南二高为我们走向成功走向未来，架起了一座立交桥。让我们面对国旗，面对每天冉冉升起的崭新的太阳宣誓：

我来自汝南二高，我将坚韧不拔，永远向前。

今天我为二高而骄傲，明天二高为我而自豪。

As we all know, students must wear uniform in school. It prevents students from wearing strange clothes or comparing clothes. However, students still show special preference for famous brands. They can buy brand shoes or bags if they cant wear their own clothes in school.

Why students cant help wearing expensive things which are famous brands?

The reason why they prefer to wear expensive clothes is just for face. Some students thought the more expensive they wear, the more confident they are. Only wearing brand clothes can they become proud. Some students are afraid to looked down if they dont wear brands things. It is easy for students to compare what they wear.

As far as I am concerned, I dont agree that students pursue famous brand. Most students cant earn money by themselves. We cant waste the money to buy expensive things which are not useful. It is hard for parents to make money. Remember, the main task of the students is to study.

I can always hear the news of education innovation after I go to school,

and many teachers are talking about the importance of extra-curricular activity,

which is believed to bring more creativity and vitality to the class. Actually,

the traditional class pays much attention to the knowledge from the books all

the time, which is easy to let students feel bored. As a result, every student

is so excited about the PE class, because they can enjoy freedom and play for

fun. Extra-curricular activity provides students a different way to broaden

their vision and inspire their creativity. Students feel relaxed and can think

in the active way. Many great people got their idea from the nature, so if the

teachers want to improve students interest, the good learning environment

should not be limited in the classroom.

我最好的朋友My Best Friend

I have a very good friend. His name is Philip. As far as Im concerned, hes very kind-hearted and generous. Once I was in high school, he treated me friendly and sincerely. When I was happy, he was also happy with me. When I was sad, he always comforted me. When I was defeated, he always encouraged me. When I stumbled, he always pulled me up. Although we quarreled at times, we were still in good relationships. We could know each other better after the argument. When my birthday came, he always sent me a special present.

我有一个很好的朋友。他的名字叫菲利普。我觉得他是非常善良和慷慨的。当我在高中的时候，他对我很友好、很真诚。我高兴的时候，他也和我一起开心。当我难过时，他总是安慰我。当我失败时，他总是鼓励我。当我迷茫时，他总是拉我一把。尽管有时候我们会吵架，我们关系仍然很好。争吵之后我们可以更好的了解对方。我生日的时候，他总是送我一份特别的礼物。

Hes very hard-working and intelligent. He always studied hard at school. Because of his hard work, he always did very well in exams. His oral English was better than mine. Most of the time, he was willing to chat with me in English. Owing to his help, I made a lot of progress in oral English.

他非常勤劳也很聪明。在学校他总是很努力学习。由于他的努力，他总是能在考试中取得好成绩。他的英语口语比我好。大多数时候他都愿意用英语和我聊天。由于他的帮助，我在英语口语方面取得了很大的进步。

七夕别称“星期”。王勃的《七夕赋》“伫灵匹于星期，眷神姿于月夕”把星期与月夕相提并论，点出了一年四季中与亲情、与爱情相关的最美好、也最凄楚动人的两个夜晚。大约正因如此吧，后人便把男女成婚的吉日良辰叫作“星期”。

在晴朗的夏秋之夜，天上繁星闪耀，一道白茫茫的银河象一座天桥横贯南北，在河的东西两岸，各有一颗闪亮的星星，隔河相望，遥遥相对，那就是牵牛星和织女星。

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

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

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

The Dangers of the Fake Product

“Shan Zhai” is the new words to express fake products, people use it to express the highly imitated products, some manufacturers produce the Shan Zhai products to make great profit, but it is so unfair to the customers, they pay so much money in the purpose of buying the genius stuff instead of the fake products. Fake products not only cheats people’s money, but also brings people dangers. Such as the medicine, if people buy the fake one, once they eat it, they will feel uncomfortable and get the illness, the most terrible situation is that they will kill themselves. Fake product is so harmful, though the government has taken some action to ban it, still people sold it, it is the temptation of profit that makes people sold it. What if their relatives have bought the products, so in order to keep people healthy, fake products should be banned.

“山寨”是用来表达伪劣产品的新代言词，人们使用它来表达高仿产品，一些生产商生产山寨产品以此来获取巨大的利润，但是这对于顾客来讲是不公平的，他们花费了这么多的钱，只为了买到真的产品而不是假的产品。伪劣产品不仅欺骗了人们的钱，而且给人们带来了危害。比如药，如果人们买到伪劣的，一旦服用，就会感到不舒服，生病，最严重的情形就是因此失去生命。伪劣产品是如此的有害，虽然政府已经采取了一些措施来禁止售卖，但是仍然有人兜售，他们是抵挡不住金钱的诱惑。如果他们的亲戚买了这些产品，会怎样呢，因此为了人们的健康，不要再卖伪劣产品了。

光阴如梭岁月匆匆。飞逝的20XX年已被尘封的记忆所存，三百多个日日夜夜就这样不动声色的与我们擦肩而过，在忙忙碌碌中，转眼又迎来了新的一年。

站在新年的门槛上，我们习惯于回望——-不仅为了留恋，更是为了梦想与希望。回首自己过去的一年，生活中不乏酸甜苦辣，其中有成功的欢乐，也有失败的痛苦。无论是感激或遗憾，快乐或忧伤，平坦或挫折，收获或失去，都一直伴随生活。生活不是你想象的那么美好，也不像我们预测的那么顺畅，好在自己学会了包容别人，也学会了善待自己，懂得了珍惜生活中的那一缕阳光，开心过好每一天

曾经，我们幸福快乐，在美好的日子里感受无尽的欢乐；也曾我们苦闷焦虑，在失意的日子里品尝淡淡的苦涩。我们努力生活着，有期盼，有失望，也有迷惘。站在新年的起点上，总会有些触动我们心灵深处的东西，诸如时光的流逝，人生的易老。是呀，多少欢乐和失落，多少茫然和困惑，都成为无比美好的记忆了。

年年岁岁花相似，岁岁年年人不同。新年伊始，让我们把一切所经历过的，统统成为过去吧！以往的成功也好，失败也罢，让我们卸下沉重的包袱轻装上阵。新的一年，翻开新的一页，所有的期待与希望、向往与憧憬向我们走来。生活还要继续，梦想不断延伸，脚步依旧执着。整理好行囊，带上健康与平安，因为健康是幸福的起点，平安是最单纯的快乐，伴着一份好心情，微笑着出发，脚步轻盈，且歌且行。

新年新气象，让我们舞动起心灵的旋律，携一缕阳光，掬一捧清风，以崭新的姿态迎走进新的一年。认真地工作，从容地生活，微笑、自信，保持良好心态，让生活如歌，让日子鲜活。

Three attributes can help people in their studies. First, a sense of responsibility is important for building a sound character. If you arent responsible, youll postpone your assignments or devote too little time to your schoolwork.

Second, in school life, relationships between people are valuable. Friends can bring you happiness and laughter. In addition, you can discuss problems and pursue knowledge with them.

Last, it is important to have a constructive philosophy of life. If you are defeated, dont be disappointed. Try to face your life and your studies with courage and determination.

If you can work toward these goals, youll become a well-rounded and versatile student instead of being a bookworm.

When I was in high school, one of my classmates sit right beside me. His

name is ChenLiang. He is my unforgettable person in my life.

I remembered my mathematics was just mediocre at that time, but he was

extraordinary and excellent in calculating and solving mathematic questions. He

often received perfect scores. Of course, I wished I could reach at his level.

Since we talked all day long, I asked how he could solve those difficult

questions. He was so patient and polite to answer my sometimes ridiculous

thinking. Gradually, I built my confidence at mathematics and finally passed the

college entrance exam.

Now, we are apart, but I still remember his great attitude and willing in

study. I am so obliged to my classmate, who is my friend always and forever.

Morality and Education

It is recognized by everybody that the strength of a country depends upon its education. The higher the education standards, the stronger the country becomes. That is true indeed.

But my opinion is that, in order to make a country strong, education alone is not sufficient. It should go side by side with morality.

Morality and education are the foundation of a country. The absence of either makes success impossible. Education without morality is dangerous. Morality without education is also harmful. ( 85 words)

道德与教育

每个人都认识到国力的强大依靠教育。教育水平越高，国家就越强盛，这是千真万确的。

但我的观点是，为了国家的强盛，单独的教育是不够的，教育与道德应双管齐下，不能偏颇。

道德与教育是国家的基石，缺少任何一个，成功都是不可能的。没有道德的教育是危险的，而没有教育的道德是有害的。

[学生英语作文：道德与教育

I always dream about returning to the past. As many people say childhood is

the happiest and easiest time in one’s life.

Children show you their true emotions. They know what is compassion and

what is tolerance better than adults. In their world all real thoughts are

presented. They may easily have different opinions with others but they never

understand what is animosity. They enjoy making friends but they never think

about making social communication net. Every child talks from the bottom of his

heart without evil plans hidden and never intrigues against each other. Only in

children’s way can adults make our life simple more real and more enjoyable.

I wish everyone’s heart would keep as innocent and lovely as they ever did

in their childhood. Then the walls between our hearts can be broken down and the

world would be a better place to live in.

Goethe said, "He is the happiest, being king or peasant, who finds peace in

his home" It is true. Home is the warmest place in the world. Home is the

harbor.No matter where you are, you would like to be back home in the end.

Home is the place which we often need to build. In order to create a kind

of warm and intimate atmosphere, we must respect and understand each other. As a

member of the family, it is not right to demand perfection from each other. The

proper way is to cultivate flexibility, patience, and sense of humor. Parents

can be more open-minded and trust their children, and the children should

understand their parents pains. If we have spare time after supper, we may

often communicate with each other and talk about what happened in the daytime.

This type of conversation, called "small talk", is of great importance because

it often helps deepen the feelings between parents and children.

If we do so, I believe our home will always be sweet.

自己的不懈努力换来的却是满满的泪水。这三年来，我在山一样高的书堆中挣扎向上，努力前进。然而千百的努力没有换来成功。中考我落榜了，这深深地打击了我的心。我不敢面对现实，我害怕，害怕那少得可怜的成绩会让我更加伤心与后悔。怎么办?理想的风筝顿时失去了方向，无力地飘荡下来，我的内心充满了无奈的愁绪。真羡慕天空中的小鸟，可我无奈，倒像是一只失落的鸟儿，飞到哪儿就在哪儿碰壁，弄得遍体鳞伤，只留下了心灵的伤痕。

父母决定出高额的学费让我上高中，我知道这对父母来说是怎样的困难，当他们说出让我继续读书时，是付出了多大的努力。他们之所以没有劝我，是因为他们知道，一向坚强的我是不会那么容易倒下的。父母常说，人生下来就必须经历挫折，没有一个人的一生是一帆风顺的。他们为我操了不少心，如果我就这样消沉下去，还再能面对父母吗?我不能再让父母失望了，即使我有多差，我也不能放弃。

车子缓缓移动，父母瘦小的身影越来越远。前进的车子带走了父母的不舍与牵挂，也承载着父母对我的期望和我对美好未来的憧憬。

落榜虽是一次打击，可正因为这次打击才让我懂得一次的失败，不等于一生的失败，更不能否定所有的成功。既然选择了坚持，就必须努力奋斗。忽然，眼前的路又显得那样清晰，我昂起头，带着我的梦想又继续了我的路程。此时的心情又是那么舒畅，因为我懂了，再大的挫折与困难与会过去，放弃过去也是一种坦然的表现。既然已是过去，我又何必放不下呢?人生路上毕竟都不是一帆风顺，没有经历风雨，怎见彩虹?我都将为我的梦想而奋斗、拼搏，不管受多少挫折。我都永不放弃。

the family had just moved to rhode island, and the young woman was feeling a little melancholy on that sunday in may. after all, it was mothers day -- and 800 miles separated her from her parents in ohio.

一家人刚移居罗德岛。5月的那个星期天， 年轻女人感到有点儿忧伤。毕竟， 这一天是母亲节─而她却与俄亥俄州的父母亲遥距800英里。

she had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy mothers day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. as they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs hanging on the big bush outside her parentsback door.

她那天早上给母亲打去电话， 祝母亲节日愉快。随后， 她的母亲向她提起， 因为春天已经来临， 所以院子里的色彩是多么绚丽。在她们通话的当儿， 年轻女人几乎可以闻到悬垂在父母亲后门外大灌木丛上的紫丁香醉人的芬芳。

later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. i know where we can find you all you want, he said. get the kids and cmon.

so off they went, driving the country roads of northern rhode island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce：sparkling sunshine, unclouded azure skies and vibrant newness of the green growing all around. they went past small villages and burgeoning housing developments, past abandoned apple orchards, back to where trees and brush have devoured old homesteads.

后来， 她向丈夫说起她是如何怀念那些紫丁香时， 他突然从椅子上跃起。我知道在哪儿能找到你想要的东西， 他说， 带上孩子， 走吧。

于是， 他们就出发了， 驱车行驶在罗德岛北部的乡村小路上， 那种天气只有5月中旬才会有：闪亮的阳光、蔚蓝色的晴空以及生机勃勃、随处可见的绿意。他们穿过一座座小村庄和一座座拔地而起的房屋， 穿过废弃的苹果园， 来到了树林和嗄敬匝谟车睦吓

where they stopped, dense thickets of cedars and ju nipers and birch crowded the roadway on both sides. there wasnt a lilac bush in sight.

come with me , the man said. over that hill is an old cellar hole, from somebodys farm of years ago, and there are lilacs all round it. the man who owns this land said i could poke around here anytime. im sure he wont mind if we pick a few lilacs.

他们停下车。车道两边长满了茂盛的雪松、杜松和白桦树。眼前没有一棵紫丁香。

随我来， 那个男人说， 翻过那座小山， 有个老地窖， 几年前是一个人的农场， 四周长满了紫丁香。这块地的主人说我可以随时到这儿来闲逛。我相信， 要是我们采几束紫丁香， 他不会介意。

before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. there, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. with a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.

还没等他们到达半山腰， 紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来。于是， 孩子们开始奔跑。不久， 那位母亲也开始跑起来， 直至到达山顶。

那里， 远离了过往司机的视野， 避开了纷扰的文明世界， 高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束， 几乎把花茎压成了两折。那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛， 把脸埋在鲜花中， 啜饮着芳香， 陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中。

while the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husbands pocket knife. she was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. while the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.

在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿， 那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛。她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝， 那儿挑一束， 然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来。她不慌不忙， 像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花。

然而， 他们终于还是返回了汽车， 走上了回家的路。孩子们叽叽喳喳说个不停， 那个男人驾着车， 那个女人坐在那儿面带微笑， 她周围放满了鲜花， 眼睛里充满着向往。

when they were within three miles of home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, stop the car. stop right here! the man slammed on the brakes. before he could ask her why she wanted to stop, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. at the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch.

当他们离家不足3英里时， 她突然向丈夫大声喊道：停车， 就在这里停车!

那个男人嘎地刹住车。还没等他问为什么， 女人就已经下了车， 匆匆走向附近的草坡， 怀里仍抱着紫丁香。山顶上是一家疗养院， 因为这是一个美丽的春日， 所以病人正在室外和亲友溜达或坐在门廊上。

the young woman went to the end of the porch, where an elderly patient was sitting in her wheelchair, alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others. across the porch railing went the flowers, in to the lap of the old woman. she lifted her head, and smiled. for a few moments, the two women chatted, both aglow with happiness, and then the young woman turned and ran back to her family. as the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved, and clutched the lilacs.

那个年轻女人走到门廊的尽头， 只见那里有一个上了年纪的病人正坐在轮椅里， 独自一人， 低着头， 背对着其他人。年轻女人越过门廊栏杆， 将鲜花放在了老太太的膝间。老太太抬起头， 露出了笑脸。两个女人聊了一会儿， 都兴高采烈。随后， 那个年轻女人转身跑回到家人的身边。当汽车开动时， 坐在轮椅里的那个女人挥动着手， 手里紧紧地握着那束紫丁香花。

mom, the kids asked, who was that?why did you give her our flowers?is she somebodys mother?the mother said she didnt know the old woman. but it was mothers day, and she seemed so alone, and who wouldnt be cheered by flowers?besides, she added, i have all of you, and i still have my mother, even if she is far away. that woman needed those flowers more than i did.

this satisfied the kids, but not the husband. the next day he purchased half a dozen young lilacs bushes and planted them around their yard, and several times since then he has added more.

妈妈， 孩子们问， 那人是谁呀?你为什么把我们的花送给她?她是谁的母亲呀?他们的母亲说， 她不认识那个老太太， 但今天是母亲节， 她看起来是那么孤独， 而鲜花会给任何人带来好心情。再说， 她补充道， 我拥有你们， 而且我还有自己的母亲， 即使她离我很远。那个女人比我更需要那些鲜花。

孩子们得到了满意的答案， 但她的丈夫却没有。第二天， 他买了半打紫丁香幼苗， 栽到了院子四周;而且从那以后， 每隔一段时间， 他就会增加一些。

i was that man. the young mother was, and is, my wife. now, every may, our own yard is redolent with lilacs. every mothers day our kids gather purple bouquets. and every year i remember that smile on a lonely old womans face, and the kindness that put the smile there.

我就是那个男人， 那个年轻母亲是我妻子。如今， 每年5月， 我们自家的院子都会散发出浓烈的紫丁香的芬芳。每逢母亲节， 我们的孩子都要采撷紫丁香花束。而且每年我都会记起一位孤独的老太太脸上露出的笑容， 以及笑容里呈现出的那种慈祥。

Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the Christian World.

According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more. "Christmas"- meaning "celebration of Christ "- honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.

Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C. (Before Christ )and A.D. ( a Latin phrase, Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord.") For the first 300 years, Jesus birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354, church leaders chose December 25 as his birthday.
