父爱 Father Love
People say that father’s love likes a mountain: heavy and silent. It’s heavy because he puts all his love to us and it’s silent because he does not know how to express. Faced his love, we accept it silently without saying a word to show our appreciation.
人们说父爱就像一座大山，沉重而安静。它沉重是因为他把所有的爱都给了我们，它安静是因为他不知道怎样表达他的爱。面对他的爱，我们一句话也不说，只是默默地接受它以表达我们的感激之情。
Before I was going to senior school, my father had never said a word to show his love to me, so that I thought he did not love me very much and sometimes I was upset about it. However, when I left home for senior school, he called me frequently and just asked me some simple questions like: how’s your study and life? When do you come home? or something like that. Gradually, I realize that he misses me although he would never say it out. So this is father’s love, not so obvious but definitely deep.
在我上高中之前，我父亲曾对我说了一句话来表达他对我的爱，所以我认为他不是很爱我，有时候我对此感到很苦恼。但是，当我离开家到高中的时候，他经常给我打电话，而且只是问我一些简单的问题，比如你的学习和生活怎么样了?什么时候回家?或者是一些类似的问题。渐渐地，我意识到尽管他从不会说出来，但是他很想念我。所以这就是父爱，不是很明显但是绝对很深。
A Happy Family 幸福的家庭
I have a happy family. Though there is only a little furniture in my home and everything in the rooms seems rather disorderly, I love my home very much.我有一个幸福的家庭。尽管家里只有很少几件家具而且房内显得有些零乱，但我却很爱我家。
My father is an engineer, nearly fifty years old. As a Party member, quite often he works late into the night. He even forgets himself when he is reading. Once when having supper, I found that the soup tasted watery. It soon became clear that my father, deep in his reading, had forgotten to put salt in the soup.爸爸是一位工程师，年龄将近50岁。作为·党员；他常常工作到深夜，在读书时他甚至能把自己忘了。曾经有一次吃晚饭时，我觉得汤淡得没味。很快真相大白，原来是爸爸埋头于读书而忘了加盐。
I have a kind mother. She is a primary school teacher. She loves her pupils and her job very much and puts all her heart into her work. All our clothes are made by tailors, for she is too busy to sew for us. As a housewife, she has to do almost all the housework. So she is the busiest one in our family.我妈妈很和蔼可亲。她是一名小学老师。她很喜欢她的学生和她的工作，把全部心血投入到了工作中。我们的衣服都是由裁缝做的，她因为太忙而．没时间给我们缝制。作为家庭主妇，她几乎做了全部家务。所以她是全家最忙的人。
We all keep a lot of books and we love reading. During our leisure time, reading is our main hobby. Evening is the happiest hour in our family. We usually sit in my parents room, reading and discussing everything were interested in. 我家有很多藏书，我们很喜欢读书。闲暇时间，读书便是我们的最大爱好。晚上是我们家最幸福的时光。我们通常坐在父母的房间里读书、讨论我们感兴趣的问题。
I love my family. It not only gives me much happiness and warmth but also teaches me how to be a real man.我爱我家，它不仅给我快乐、温暖，而且教我做人。
My Favorite Season 我最喜欢的季节
There are four seasons in a year and I like the spring most. Spring is the beginning of the year. In spring, everything is new and fresh. The plants turn to grow and green. I rains sometimes and it makes the air fresh. Spring brings good hope for people. We can make a good wish for the whole year and work hard on it. I have my wish, too and I will work hard on it.
一年有四个季节，我最喜欢春天。春天是一年的开始。在春天，一切都是新的，新鲜的。植物生长得绿油油的。有时候会下雨，它使空气清新。春天给人们带来美好的希望。我们可以为整个一年一个美好的愿望而努力学习。我有我的愿望，也是我要努力学习。
What is happiness 幸福是什么
What is happiness? Different people have different ideas. Some people are rich; they think they are happy. Other people have many friends, so they feel happy. Still others are happy because their lives are meaningful. Happiness attracts everyone. For children, happiness often suggests eating something good or playing with toys. For a stamp collector, stamps bring more delight than meals. And for a scientist, a discovery or an invention rather than anything else gives him greatest satisfaction.
There was once a beggar who was always happy. The king saw him and wondered why he was so happy because he was so poor. However, the king could have whatever he wanted; yet he himself was not happy at all. Thus we can see one s happiness doesn t depend on whether he is rich or poor. Happiness is a state of mind. As long as one thinks he s content and satisfied, he is happy.
As everything exist only because its opposite , happiness exists only when pain exists. Just as a person who does not know failure never knows success, a person, who has not experienced suffering or sadness never knows what happiness means..
Happiness always promises a hope by which people go on living. When they come to the point of losing hope because they have suffered a great deal, it is often the time when happiness comes that will give them the courage and desire to live.
Cheer up and be happy. Happiness is not far from you. It s just around you. Try to grasp it and enjoy it.
幸福是什么？不同的人有不同的想法。有些人认为是富有的，他们认为他们是快乐的。另外的人有很多朋友，所以他们感到高兴。还有的人觉得他们是快乐的，因为他们的生活是有意义的。幸福吸引着大家。对于孩子来说，幸福往往意味着吃好吃的东西或玩玩具。对于一个邮票收集者来说，邮票比吃饭带来更多的快乐。对于一个科学家，是发现或发明，而不是别的什么东西给了他最大的满足。
曾经有一个乞丐总是快乐的。国王看到他，不知道他为何如此快乐，因为他看起来是如此的糟糕。然而，国王可以随心所欲拥有他想拥有的；但是他自己一点都不快乐。因此，我们可以看到一个人的幸福并不取决于他是富有还是贫穷。幸福是一种心态。只要一个人认为他满意，他就是快乐的。
正如一切存在的仅仅是因为它的对立面的存在，幸福的存在，只有当疼痛的存在。正如一个人不知道成功也不知道失败，一个人没有经历痛苦或悲伤也不会知道幸福的含义。
幸福总是给人们继续活下去的希望。当他们失去希望的时候，因为他们已经遭受了巨大的损失，所以这时候往往是幸福来的时候，这会给他们继续生活下去的勇气和希望。
振作起来变得快乐吧。幸福离你不远。它只是在你身边。试图抓住它，享受它。
谁是你的守护天使呢 Who is your guardian angel
god replied," among the many angels, i chose one for you. she will be waiting for you and will take care of you."but the child wasnt sure he really wanted to go. "but tell me, here in heaven, i dont do anything else but sing and smile, thats enough for me to be happy.""your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. and you will feel your angels love and be happy."
上帝回答说：“在众多的天使中，我为你选择了一个。她会等你，会照顾你的。”但孩子不知道他真的想去。但是告诉我，在天堂，我除了唱歌和微笑，我什么都不做，这就足以让我开心了。”你的天使会为你唱歌，也会为你每天微笑。你会感觉到你的天使的爱和幸福。”
"and how am i going to be able to understand when people talk to me, "the child continued, "if i dont know the language that men talk?"god patted him on the head and said, "your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.""and what am i going to do when i want to talk to you?"
孩子继续说：“如果我不懂人类说话的语言，我怎么能理解呢？”上帝轻轻地拍了拍他的头，说：“你的天使会告诉你，你会听到的最美丽和最甜美的话，你的天使会教你如何说话。”“当我想和你说话的时候，我该怎么办？”
but god had an answer for that question too."your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.""ive heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?""your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!""but i will always be sad because i will not see you anymore,"the child continued warily.god smiled on the young one. "your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though i will always be next to you."at that moment there was much peace in heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. the child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. he asked god one more question, softly,"oh god, if i am about to leave now, please tell me my angels name."
上帝也回答了这个问题：“你的天使会将你的双手放在一起，教你如何祈祷。”“我听说地球上有坏人，谁来保护我呢？”即使冒着生命危险，你的天使也会保护你的！”但是我会很悲伤，因为我再也见不到你了，”孩子继续warily.god上帝微笑着对年轻的一个。”你的天使会一直跟你谈论我，会教你回到我身边的路，即使我永远在你身边，“在那一刻，天堂里有很多和平，但是来自地球的声音已经可以听到了。那孩子知道他很快就要开始他的旅程了。他又问了一个问题：“哦，上帝，如果我现在就要离开了，请告诉我我的天使的名字。”
god touched the child on the shoulder and answered,"your angels name is not hard to remember. you will simply call her mommy."
上帝把手放在小孩的肩上，答道：“你的天使的名字不难记住。你会叫她妈妈。”
The Doll and the White Rose洋娃娃和白玫瑰
I was walking around in a mall, when I saw a cashier hand this little boy some money back. The boy couldn’t have been more than five or six years old. The cashier said, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have enough money to buy this doll.” Then the little boy turned to the old woman next to him, “Granny, are you sure I don’t have enough money?” The old lady replied, “You know that you don’t have enough money to buy this doll, my dear.” Then she asked him to stay there for just five minutes. She left quickly.
我在逛一个购物中心，忽然我看见收银员将一些钱递还给一个小男孩，这个男孩最多5、6岁。收银员说，“很抱歉，但是你的钱不够买这个洋娃娃。”小男孩转向他身旁的老妇人，“奶奶，你确定我的钱不够吗？”老妇人回答他说，“我亲爱的孩子，你知道你的钱不够买这个洋娃娃。”接着，她让小男孩在原地等她5分钟，她便很快地离开了。
The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to.
小男孩仍然把娃娃拿在手里，我走向他，问他想要把娃娃送给谁。
“It’s the doll that my sister wanted so much for Christmas. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her,” he said. I said that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all, and not to worry. But he replied to me sadly, “No, Santa Claus can’t bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.” His eyes were so sad. “My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.”
“这个娃娃是我妹妹非常想要的圣诞节礼物。她坚信圣诞老人会把这个送给她，”他说。我说圣诞老人终究可能会把娃娃送给妹妹，所以不要担心。但是他难过地回答我说，“不会的，圣诞老人不会把娃娃送到她现在在的地方的。我得把娃娃拿给妈妈好让她去看妹妹的时候能把娃娃给妹妹。”他的眼睛里是那么悲伤，“妹妹和上帝在一起了。爸爸说妈妈很快就要和上帝见面，所以我想妈妈可以把娃娃带去给妹妹。”
My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and continued, “I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.” Then he showed me a nice photo of him laughing happily.
我的心脏几乎停止，小男孩抬头看着我继续说道，“我要爸爸告诉妈妈不要那么快走，我需要她等我从百货中心回来。”然后他给我看一张他笑得很开心的很好看的照片。
I quickly reached for my wallet and said, “Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll?”
我很快地找到我的钱包，说道，“我们再确认一次吧，说不定你有足够的钱买这个娃娃？”
“OK, I hope I do have enough,” he said. I put some of my money with his without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.
“好的，我希望我有足够的钱，”他说。我趁他不注意的时候把我的一些钱和他的放在一起，然后我们一起数钱，钱足够买娃娃了，甚至还有剩余。
Surprisingly, the little boy cried, “Thank you God for giving me enough money!” Then he looked at me and added, “I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy could give it to my sister. He heard me! I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn’t dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose!”
小男孩惊讶得哭了，“谢谢上帝给了我足够的钱！”然后他看着我继续说道，“我昨晚睡觉前向上帝祈祷让我有足够的钱买这个娃娃，好让妈妈能把它带给妹妹。他听到了！我还希望有足够的钱买一朵白色的玫瑰送给妈妈，但是我不敢向上帝要求太多。但是他给了我足够的钱买娃娃和白玫瑰！”
A few minutes later, the old lady returned and I left with my basket. I couldn’t get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine, because the woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy?
几分钟后，老妇人回来了，我拿着篮子离开了。我心里一直惦记着小男孩，后来我想起来两天前报纸上报道说，有个醉汉开着卡车撞到一辆乘坐有一个妇女和一个小女孩的轿车。女孩当场死亡，母亲还在生死边缘。家人必须决定是否拔掉维持生命的机器的插头，因为这个母亲再也不能从昏迷中醒来。那是不是就是这个男孩的家人？
Two days after Iencountered the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the woman had passed away. I couldn’t stop myself from buying a bunch of white roses and going to the funeral. She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over her chest. I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been changed forever.
我遇到男孩两天后，从报纸上得知那位妇女过世了。我无法阻止自己买一束白玫瑰去参加葬礼。她就躺在那儿，躺在她的棺材里，手里握着一朵美丽的白玫瑰和小男孩的照片，她的胸前放着那个洋娃娃。我哭着离开了那里，感觉我的生命被彻底改变了。
