第二十七天:KNOWLEDGE IS POWER 知识就是力量
If we have no knowledge, we cannot succeed in doing any work. Why? Because knowledge is power. With knowledge we have conquered nature and invented steamers, trains and airplanes. We can send messages by telegram. We can talk with our friends by telephone.

As is well known, we students are the future masters of the nation. She (It) needs us very much. If we do not make efforts to acquire knowledge, how can we render service to her (it)?

如果我们没有知识,我们就不能做成功任何事情。为什么?因为知识就是力量。冯藉知识我们征服了大自然,并且发明了轮船,火车与飞机。我们能用电报传递消息。我们能用电话和朋友谈话。

如众所周知,我们学生都是国家未来的主人翁。她非常需要我们。如果我们不努力去获得知识,将来如何来报效她呢?

第二十八天:A LETTER TO A FRIEND 一封给友人的信

Dear X:

We have not seen each other for a long time. I miss (think of) you very much. I wish (that) I had wings and could fly to your home. However, this is impossible!

Father (My father) has gone abroad of late. If I had had time then, I would have accompanied him. Only Mother (my mother) and I are at home now (at present). We are leading (living) a quiet and happy life. We look as if we were fairies. I hope (that) I can hear from you very often.

Sincerely yours.

亲爱的××:

我们彼此有好久没有见面了。我十分想我。我希望我有双翅膀而且能够飞到你家去。然而,这是不可能的!

我父亲最近出国了。我那时如果有时间的话,我就会陪着他去。现在家里只有我母亲和我。我们过着一个很宁静而快乐的生活。我们看起来好像神仙似的。希望我能常常接到你的信。

祝你

××× 敬上

第二十九天:CHOOSING FRIENDS 选择朋友

A man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from them. Why? Because there are more false friends than real ones in this world. To have one real friends is better than a hundred false ones. Friends who flatter you to your face are not true friends.

We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. On the other hand, we should do our best to a void keeping company with bad people

We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. On the other hand, we should do our best to a void keeping company with bad people.

一个小心选择朋友的人一定会从他们那里获得益处。为什么?因为在这个世界里假朋友比真朋友要多。有一个真朋友要比有一百个假朋友来得好。凡是当面奉承你的朋友不是真朋友。

我们必须和凡是具有良好品格和心地善良的人交朋友。反过来说,我们应尽力避免结交坏人。

第三十天:TO RISE EARLY 论早起

I do not know the reason why some people want to get up late. They will never have the opportunity to enjoy (of enjoying) the fresh air and calmness of the morning. This is indeed a quite regrettable thing.To rise early is a good habit (which) we should cultivate. Why? Because the best time when we can pursue our studies is in the morning. In addition, early rising is also good to our health. I hope that everybody our knows the reason why we must rise early.

我不知道某些人要晚起的理由。他们永不会有机会来享受早晨的新鲜空气和宁静。这真是一件 发令人遗憾的事情。早起是我们应该养成的一种良好习惯。为什么?因为早晨是我们从事学业的大好时间。再者,早起对我们健康也有益处。我希望每个人应该知道我们必须早起的理由。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

第三十一天:THRIFT 节俭

There is not a (no) thrifty man but becomes a rich man sooner or later. Why? Because he will not spend such money as is unnecessary. Little by little his money will accumulate. Ten to one, he is bound to make a fortune.I do not like such men as spend their money in a wrong way. They do not know extravagance is a bad thing. It can only make them happy for the time being. In short, thrift makes poor men rich and extravagance makes rich men poor.

没有一个节俭的人迟早不成为一个富翁。为什么?因为他决不花像那种不必要的钱。渐渐他的钱就会

聚积起来。十之八九,他一定会发财的。我不喜欢那种乱花钱的人。他们不知道奢侈是一件坏事。它只能够使他们暂时快乐而已。总而言之,节俭使穷人变富,奢侈使富人变穷。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

第三十二天:PERSEVERANCE 毅力/坚忍

Needless to say, nothing but perseverance can lead a man to the way of success. In other words, a persevering man never does his work without succeeding in it. This is indeed unchangeable truth.Our National Father, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, is the most ideal example. He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. He met with many failures, but he was anything but discouraged. As a result, he won. The Republic of China was born.

不需说,只有毅力才能引导人迈向成功之途。换句话说,一个具有毅力的人做工作终是(never...without)会把它做成功的。这真是不易之定理也。我们国父孙中山先生是一个最理想的例了.致力国民革命凡四十年。他遭遇到许多次的失败,但是他决不灰心。结果,他赢了。中华民国诞生了。

第三十三天:MY MOTHER 我母亲

My mother is a woman of the old school. She is too conservative to keep up with the times. However, she is good-natured and treats others incerely. For this reason, all her neighbors are only too glad (pleased) to make friends with her. They consider her a model woman.She is a typical housewife. She keeps the

(her) house neat and clean and looks after us with extreme care . She often says to us, “You cannot study too ard.”

我的补充 2009-08-03 10:52 第三十四天:WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY 有志者事竟成
The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.

成功的要诀不是金钱而是一个坚强的意志(用not so mush... as)。一个大人物是一个具有坚强意志和不屈不挠精神的人。换句话说,如果一个人没有坚强意志去获得最后胜利的人,他终其一生永远不会成功。他只不过是(用no more than)一个失败者。很显明的世界上并没有难事。如果你下定决心去做它,你一定会达到目的。那是显而易见的。

第三十五天:DUTIES OF A STUDENT 学生的责任

Education is the very thing that we want to receive. Our parents send us to school so as to enable us to get (obtain) knowledge and achieve great things in the future. The following are the duties of a student (which) we should keep in mind.

In the first place, we should be filial to our parents and respectful to our teacher.

In the second place, we have to (must )study as hard as we can.

In the third place, we must not tell lies.

Last of all, we must not criticize others.

To sum up, the above-mentioned rules are the very duties of a student.

教育就是我们要接受的东西。我们父母送我们上学以便能使人们获得知识与将来成大事。下面是我们应该记住的学生的责任。

我们应对父母要孝顺,对老师要尊敬。

我们要尽可能的用功读书。

我们切不可说谎。

最后,我们不要批评别人。

总而言之,上面所说的规则就是我们应尽的责任。

第三十六天:TO BE PATIENT 要忍耐

When someone disagrees with you or offends you, don’t lose your temper. Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to (should) be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.

In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until (till) the final victory belongs to you.

当有人和你意见不同或开罪你的时候,你切不可发脾气。为什么?因为这样做是无用的(用of no use)。你应当忍耐并且保持冷静,唯恐和他争吵。你必须知道忍耐不是弱而是一种美德。我希望人人都实行它。

另外,忍耐也会带给我们成功。当你在工作中遭遇到困难的时候,灰心是无用的。你必须继续作战直到最后胜利属于你为止。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

第三十七天:SANITARY WAYS IN SUMMER 夏天的卫生方法

Not only is summer a hot season but also diseases are apt to happen. To us it is neither comfortable nor safe.If we do not wish to get sick, we must pay attention to the following sanitary ways in summer.Both fresh air and clean food are indispensable to us.We must try our best to get (obtain) them.We should take at least one bath every day.Don’t wear dirty clothes.

In conclusion, if we can carry out the above – mentioned rules, we will neither get (take/fall) sick nor suffer pain.

夏天不仅是个炎热的季节,而且疾病也容易发生。它对我们既不舒适也不安全。我们希望不生病,就得注意下面那些夏天卫生的方法。新鲜空气和干净的食物两者对我们是不可缺少的。我们必须尽全力去获得它们。我们每天至少应当洗一个澡。不要穿脏衣服。

总而言之,如果我们能实行上面所说的那些规则,我们既不会生病也不会吃苦。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

第三十八天:WORK WHILE YOU WORK, PLAY WHILE YOU PLAY 工作时工作,游玩时游玩

Both work and play are necessary to us; the former gives us knowledge while the latter (gives) rest. An English proverb is well said: “Work while you work play while you play.” It makes our life pleasant, efficient and successful.Work is one thing and play is another. It is of course not good to work all day long. However, it is also not good to play all day long. While you work, you should work in earnest. Then while you play, you will feel more relaxed and pleasant. That goes without saying.

工作和游玩两者对我们都是必须的,前者给我们知识,后者给我们休息。英谚说得好“工作时工作,游玩时游玩”。它使我们的生活愉快,有效率以及成功。工作是一回事,游玩又是另一回事。整日工作自然不好。然而,整天游玩也是不好。当你工作时,你应认真工作。那末当你游玩时,你会觉得比较轻松愉快。那是不需说的。

1.That's Why

Jimmy started painting when he was three years old, and when he was five, he was already very good at it. He painted many beautiful and interesting pictures, and people paid a lot of money for them. They said, "This boy's going to be famous when he's little older, and then we're going to sell these pictures for a lot more money."

Jimmy's pictures were different from other people's because he never painted on all of the paper. He painted on half of it, and the other half was always empty.

"That's very clever," everyone said, "Nobody else does that!"

One day somebody bought one of Jimmy's pictures and then said to him, "Please tell me this, Jimmy. Why do you paint on the bottom half of your pictures, but not on the top half?"

"Because I'm small," Jimmy said, "and my burshes don't reach very high."

原来如此

吉米三岁开始画画,五岁时已经画得很好了。他画了很多美丽而有趣的画,人们出高价购买。他们说,“这个孩子长大一点肯定会出名,我们可以靠这些画大赚一笔。”

吉米的画与众不同。因为他从来不在整张纸上作画。他只画一半的纸,而另一半他总空着。

“构思多么巧妙啊!”大家都说,“从来没有人这么做过。”

有一天,一个人买了吉米的画,然后问他:“请告诉我,吉米,你为什么总是在纸的下半部分画画,而不是在纸的上半部分?”

吉米说,“因为我个头小,够不着上面。”

One day a little girl came running into her house yelling, "Mommy, I got five
dollars!" The mother was curious, so she asked her child where she got the five
dollars from.
The little girl replied: ''Tommy down the street gave me five dollars for
doing cartwheel while he sat in the tree.
The mother told her daughter: "Don't you know that Tommy is just trying to see
your panties."
''OOOOhhhh'' said the little girl.
The next day the little girl came running into the house yelling, "Mommy, I
got ten dollars. The mother asked, "Where did you get the ten dollars from?"
The little girl replied, "Tommy down the street gave me ten dollars for doing
a cartwheel while he sat up in the tree and laughed."
The mother replied: "Didn't I tell you that he is...''
Before the mother could finish, the little girl said, ''Wait Mommy! I tricked
him, I didn't wear any panties today.''

Rafael "Rafa" Nadal Parera (born 3 June 1986) is a former World No. 1 Spanish professional tennis player, currently ranked #2. Nadal has won six Grand Slam singles titles, and the 2008 Olympic gold medal in singles.

Nadal was ranked World Number #1 from 18 August 2008 to 5 July 2009. In 2009, he became the first player to simultaneously hold Grand Slam titles on clay, grass and hardcourt. His success on clay has earned him the nickname "The King of Clay".

Nadal was ranked World No. 2, behind Roger Federer for a record 160 weeks before earning the top spot. He has subsequently lost this position again to Federer following the Swiss player's triumph at the 2009 Madrid Masters (where Federer beat him in the final), French Open and Wimbledon, as well as his own withdrawal from Wimbledon due to injury. In 2008, he was given the Prince of Asturias Award for Sports, in recognition of his achievements in tennis.
