6、其殿堂。美，在春曰百花中绽放；美，在绿叶嫩枝间摇曳；美，在深海幽谷里游弋；美，在奇石与贝壳的缤纷色彩中闪烁。不只是这些细微之物，甚至大洋大川，云朵繁星，曰出曰落-切都洋溢着美。这样的美如此珍贵，与我们最温柔、最高尚的情感是如此相宜。然而，想到很多人置身于美，却几乎对它视若无睹，真是令人痛心不已。所有的人都应该去感知大自然之美。我们所踩过的小虫以及秋风拂掠之际飘落飞舞的树叶，皆值得我们探究与赞赏。具有欣赏美的能力不仅可以使我们快乐的源泉汩汩喷涌它也可以拓展我们的德性。美，抚平我们心中的不安，也驱散了我们的忧虑。走进田野或树林，在夏曰的海滨或山间度过一天的时光，那么你所有微不足道的困惑和焦虑都会烟
7、消云散。倾听美妙的音乐，你那愚蠢的恐惧与琐碎的猜忌都会消逝无踪。世间万物之美总会有助于我们探寻与发现善良之美。.秋There is no month in the whole year, in which nature wears a more beautiful appearance than in the month of August! Spring has many beauties, and May is a fresh and blooming month, but the charms of this time of year are enhanced by their cont
8、rast with the winter season. August has no such advantage. It comes when we remember nothing but clear skies, green fields and sweet smelling flowers when the recollection of snow, and ice, and bleak winds, has faded from our minds as completely as they have disappeared from the earth and yet what a
9、 pleasant time it is! Orchards and corn-fields ring with the hum of labour; trees bend beneath the thick clusters of ripe fruit, which bows their branches to the ground; and the corn, piled in graceful sheaves, or waving in every light breath that sweeps above it, as if it wooed the sickle, tinges t
10、he landscape with a golden hue. A mellow softness appears to hang over the whole earth; the influence of the season seems to extend itself to the every wagon, whose slow motion across the well-reaped field, is perceptible only to the eye, but strikes with no harsh sound upon the ear.一年四季之中，大自然的外貌最美不
11、过的一个月就是八月。 春天有许多美的地方，五月是新鲜和娇艳的月份，但是这 种时节的媚人之处是由于和冬季的对照而加强起来的。八月没 有这种有利的条件。它来的时候，我们所记得的只有晴朗的天、 绿色的田野和芬芳的花雪、冰和凜冽的寒风已经完全被我 们的脑子遗忘了，正如它们已经完全从地面消失了一样，然 而这八月是何等可爱的时节啊！果园里和谷田里震荡着嘈杂的 劳作的声音;结了一丛丛丰硕果实的枝条垂到地面，连树干都坠 得发弯了；谷物呢，整整齐齐地束束堆着，或者被不时掠过的一 阵阵的微风吹得摇摇摆摆，像是在向镰刀求爱，它们给这片风景 染上一片金色。似乎有一种丰美的柔和气氛笼罩着整个地面； 时节的影响像是连大车
12、也受了感染，它在收割过的田野里缓慢 地移动，唯有眼睛可以看得出来，而耳朵却听不到粗浊的声音。 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.青春不是年华，而
13、是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙热的感情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。Youth means a temperamental 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
14、ideals.青春气贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安。如此锐气，二十后生而有之，六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加，并非垂老，理想丢弃，方堕暮年。Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。忧烦，惶恐，丧失自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。Whether 60 or 16, there is in ever
15、y human beings heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of whats 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.无论年届花甲，抑或二八芳龄，心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存。When the aerials are down, and yo
