2、 aloud, and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but also for every thinking man and woman.To be or not to be, to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely.A philosopher once want

3、ed to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally.He answered it by saying: “1 think, therefore am.”But the best definition of e_istence ever saw did another philosopher who said: “To be is to be in relations.” If this true, then the more re

4、lations a living thing has, the more it is alive.To live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity of our relations.Unfortunately we are so constituted that we get to love our routine.But apart from our regular occupation how much are we alive? If you are interest-ed only in your r

5、egular occupation, you are alive only to that e_tent.So far as other things are concerned-poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports, unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs-you are dead.Contrariwise, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest-even more, a new acplishment-yo

6、u increase your power of life.No one who is deeply interested in a large variety of subjects can remain un-happy, the real pessimist is the person who has lost interest.Bacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friend.But we gain new life by contacts, new friends.What is supremely true of li

7、ving objects is only less true of ideas, which are also alive.Where your thoughts are, there will your live be also.If your thoughts are confined only to your business, only to your physical welfare, only to the narrow circle of the town in which you live, then you live in a narrow cir-conscribed li

8、fe.But if you are interested in what is going on in China, then you are living in China if youre interested in the characters of a good novel, then you are living with those highly interesting people, if you listen intently to fine music, you are away from your immediate surroundings and living in a

9、 world of passion and imagination.To be or not to be-to live intensely and richly, merely to e_ist, that depends on ourselves.Let widen and intensify our relations.While we live, let live!六字名言威廉·里昂·费尔浦斯“是活还是不活。”假如把圣经除外，这六个字便是整个世界文学中最有名的六个字了。这六个字是哈姆雷特一次喃喃自语时说的，而这六个字也就成了莎士比亚作品中最有名的几个字了，因

10、为这里哈姆雷特不仅道出了他自己的心声，同时也代表了一切有思想的男男女女。是活还是不活-是要生活还是不要生活，是要生活得饱满充实，兴致勃勃，还是只是活得枯燥委琐，贫乏无味。一位哲人一次曾想弄清他自己是否是在活着，这个问题我们每个人也大可不时地问问我们自己。这位哲学家对此的答案是： “我思故我在。”但是关于生存我所见过的一条最好的定义却是另一位哲学家下的：“生活即是联络。”假如这话不假的话，那么一个有生命者的联络越多，它也就越有生气。所谓要活得丰富充实也即是要扩大和加强我们的各种联络。不幸的是，我们往往会因为天性不够丰厚而容易陷入自己的陈规旧套。试问除去我们的日常工作，我们的真正生活又有多少?假如

11、你只是对你的日常工作才有兴趣，那你的生趣也就很有限了。至于在其它事物方面一比方诗歌、散文、音乐、美术、体育、无私的友谊、政治与国际事务，等等-你只是死人一个。但反过来说，每当你获得一种新的兴趣-甚至一项新的造诣-你就增长了你的生活本领。一个能对许许多多事物都深感兴趣的人是不可能总不愉快的，真正的悲观者只能是那些丧失兴趣的人。培根曾讲过，一个人失去朋友即是死亡。但是凭着交往，凭着新朋，我们就能获得再生。这条对于活人可谓千真万确的道理在一定程度上也完全适用于人的思想，它们也都是活的。你的思想所在，你的生命便也在那里。假如你的思想不出你的业务范围，不出你的物质利益，不出你所在城镇的狭隘圈子，那么你的

12、一生便也只是多方受着局限的狭隘的一生。但是假如你对当前中国那里所发生的种种感到兴趣，那么你便可说也活在中国;假如你对一本佳妙小说中的人物感到兴趣，你便是活在一批极有趣的人们中间;假如你能全神贯注地听点好的音乐，你就会超脱出你的周围环境而活在一个充满激情与想象的神奇世界之中。是活还是不活-活得热烈活得丰富，还是只是简单存在，这就全在我们自己。但愿我们都能不断阔展和增强我们的各种联络。只要一天我们活着，就要一天是在活着。经典的优秀英语美文：西方婚礼有旧有新有借有蓝The wedding tradition of“something old,something new,something borro

24、一枚六便士的银币。”有旧新娘可以穿着或佩戴一样旧衣物来象征她和她娘家及过去生活之间的历史纽带。许多新娘佩戴一件家传的珠宝饰品作为“有旧”的选择。有些新娘穿着她们母亲或祖母穿过的结婚礼服。实际上，旧的东西同时也可以是借来的东西。有新穿戴一样新衣物是要象征新娘在新生活和婚姻中拥有成功和希望。假如新娘置办的是新的结婚礼服，那它就可以是她的“有新”，但是任何别的新服饰也是可以的。“有新”常常是最容易做到的。有借借来的服饰应该是从一位已幸福地结了婚的朋友那里借来的。据说他们的幸福会惠及于你，给你的婚姻带来长久的美满。有些新娘会去借来一种穿着用品、一件首饰、一块手帕或者一个饰以珠子的手袋。有蓝穿戴一件蓝色

25、服饰自圣经时代，当时蓝色结婚礼服代表着纯洁、忠诚和爱情。随着时间的推移，这一传统已从穿蓝色结婚礼服，演变成后来的在新娘的结婚礼服下摆处缝上一圈蓝色的镶边，再演变到现代的普遍做法-新娘用蓝色的吊袜带。六便士银币在新娘的左脚鞋子里放一枚六便士银币据说是财富的象征。它不仅代表财产上的富有，还代表婚姻生活的幸福与快乐。由于今天许多新娘恐怕连一枚六便士是什么样子都不知道，传统风俗的这一局部在现代婚礼中已经不常被遵守。但是，假如新娘想要在她的婚礼中包括这一工程，她可以从许多出售如吊袜带和请柬等婚礼用品的公司里买到六便士银币。有些较为传统的新娘或许会花很多心思选择每一件服饰。传统的做法是：同一家族的女性佩戴

26、同一件首饰。经典的优秀英语美文：宽恕的艺术 ForgivenessTo forgive may be divine, but no one ever said it was easy.When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be e_tremely difficult to let go of your grudge.But forgiveness is possible - and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health.“People who forg

27、ive show less depression, anger and stress and more hopefulness,” says Frederic, Ph.D., author of Forgive for Good.“So it can help save on the wear and tear on our organs, reduce the wearing out of the immune system and allow people to feel more vital.”So how do you start the healing? Try following

28、these steps:Calm yourself.To defuse your anger, try a simple stress-management technique.“Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love,” Frederic says.Dont wait for an apology.“Many times the person who hurt you has no intenti

29、on of apologizing,” Frederic says.“They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way.So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation with the person who upset you or co

30、ndoning of his or her action.Take the control away from your offender.Mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain.“Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you,” Frederic says.Try to see things from the other

31、persons perspective.If you empathize with that person, you may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, fear - even love.To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view.Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.Research has shown that people w

32、ho forgive report more energy, better appetite and better sleep patterns.Dont forget to forgive yourself.“For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge,” Frederic says.“But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you dont do it.”宽恕是神圣的，但是没有人说很容易做到宽恕别人。当你被深深伤害的时候，想要不怀恨在心是很难做到的。但是宽恕

33、是可能的-而且这会给你的身心安康带来出乎意料的好处。宽恕的好处一书的作者弗雷德里克博士说。 “懂得宽恕的人不会感到那么沮丧、愤怒和紧张，他们总是充满希望。所以宽恕有助于减少人体各种器官的损耗，降低免疫系统的疲劳程度并使人精力更加充分。”那么，如何恢复自己的情绪呢?试试下面的一些步骤吧：让自己冷静下来。尝试一种简单的减压技巧来缓解你愤怒的情绪。弗雷德里克建议：“做几次深呼吸，然后想想那些令你快乐的事情，比方自然界的美丽风光，或者你爱的人。”不要等别人来抱歉。弗雷德里克说：“许多时候，伤害你的人没有想过要抱歉。他们可能是成心的，也可能只是和你对待事物的方式不一样。所以假如你等着别人来抱歉，你可能会

34、等相当长的时间。”你要牢记，宽恕并不一定意味着顺从那些让你心烦意乱的人，也不意味着饶恕他或她的行为。不要让冒犯你的人控制你的情绪。内心里总是想着自己的伤痛，只会给伤害你的人打气。弗雷德里克说：“与其老是关注自己受到的伤害，还不如学着去寻找你身边的真善美。”试着从别人的角度来看问题。假如你站在别人的立场上，你也许会意识到他或她是因为无知、害怕、甚至是爱才那样做的。为了可以站在别人的角度来看问题，你可以从冒犯你的人的立场给你自己写一封信。认识到宽恕的好处。研究说明懂得宽恕的人精力更旺盛、食欲更好、睡觉更香。不要忘了宽恕自己。弗雷德里克说：“对于有些人来说，宽恕自己才是最大的挑战。但是假如你不宽恕自己，你会失去自信。”“经典的优秀英语美文”END第 14 页 共 14 页
