英語美文摘抄200字（一）
Man's youth is a wonderful thing： it is so full of anguish and of magic and he never comes to know it as it is， until it has gone from him forever. It is the thing he cannot bear to lose， it is the thing whose passing he watches with infinite sorrow and regret， it is the thing whose loss with a sad and secret joy， the thing he would never willingly relive again， could it be restored to him by any magic.
青春奇妙無窮，充滿魅力，充滿痛楚。青春年少的時候根本不知青春為何物，直到青春一去不復返了才對青春有了真正的認識。誰都想讓青春永駐，不忍青春離去； 眼睜睜地看著青春流逝，心中會湧起無窮的憂傷和惋惜；青春的失去是人們永遠感到悲哀的事；青春的失去是人們真正覺得悲喜交集的事；即便奇跡出現青春復蘇， 誰都不會心甘情願重度青春的歲月。

Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth. And what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignant ， so unutterable， with such a bitter pain and joy， when we are young? It is this： that being rich， we are so poor； that being mighty， we can yet have nothing； that seeing， breathig， smelling， tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth， feeling with an intolerable certitude that the whole structure of the enchanted life – the most fortunate， wealthy， good， and happy life that any man has ever known – is ours – is ours at once， immediately and forever， the moment that we choose to take a step， or stretch a hand， or say a word—— we yet know that we can really keep， hold， take， and possess forever—— nothing. All passes； nothing lasts： the moment that we put our hand upon it ， it melts away like smoke， is gone forever， and the snake is eating at our heart again； we see then what we are and what our lives must come to.
為什麼如此？因為在青春時代，生活充滿了奇特而辛酸的不可思議的事。我們在青春年少時帶著悲喜交集的心情，

A young man is so strong， so mad， so certain， and so lost. He has everything and he is able to use nothing. He hurls the great shoulder of his strength forever against phantasmalbarriers， he is a wave whose power explodes in lost mid – oceans under timeless skies， here——aches out to grip a fume of painted smoke， he wants all， feels the thirst and power foreverything， and finally gets nothing. In the end， he is destroyed by his own strength， devoured by his own hunger， impoverished by his own wealth. Thoughtless of money or the accumulation of material possessions， he is none the less defeated in the end by his own greed a greed that makes the avarice of King Midas seem paltry by comparison.
青年人非常堅強，狂熱自信，但容易迷惘混沌，雖然機緣無數，卻把握不住，雖然身強體壯，試圖衝破重重虛幻的屏障，卻如同一個波浪，最終還是無力地消失在曠 遠浩淼的大海中央，他伸出手想要抓住斑斕的雲煙，他想得到世間的萬物，渴望主宰一切，()最終卻是一無所獲。最後，他被自己的力量所毀滅，被自己的饑餓所吞 食，被自己的財富弄得貧窮潦倒。他對金錢或財富的積累不以為意漫不經心，然而最終還是被自己的貪欲所吞噬。

And that is the reason why， when youth is gone， every man will look back upon that period of his life with infinite sorrow and regret. It is the bitter sorrow and regret of a man who knows that once he had a great talent and wasted it ， of a man who knows that once he had a great treasure and got nothing from it ， of a man who knows that he had strength enough for everything and never used it.
青春消逝，驀然回首，無論是誰，心中都會充滿無盡的憂傷，充滿無窮的懊悔。
英語美文摘抄100字
1、It was a beautiful letter， but there was no way， except for the name Michael， to identify the owner. Maybe if I called information， the operator could find a phone listing for the address on the envelope. The operator suggested I speak with her supervisor， who hesitated for a moment， then said， "Well， there is a phone listing at that address， but I can't give you the number. " She said as a courtesy， she would call that number， explain my story and ask whoever answered if the person wanted her to connect me.
這是一封精美的信，但是除了邁克爾的名字以外，沒有其他辦法確定皮夾的主人。或許詢問資訊台，話務員可以通過信封上的住址查到電話。話務員建議我和她的負責人說，那位負責人猶豫了一會兒，然後說：嗯，“有那個住址的電話號碼，但我不能給你。”她說出於禮貌，她可以打那個電話，說明我的情況後，看接電話的人是否願意讓她再與我聯繫。
2、I waited a few minutes and then the supervisor was back on the line. "I have a party who will speak with you. " I asked the woman on the other end of the line if she knew anyone by the name of Hannah. She gasped. " Oh！ We bought this house from a family who had a daughter named Hannah. But that was thirty years ago！" "Would you know where that family could be located now?" I asked. "I remember that Hannah had to place her mother in a nursing home some years ago， "the woman said. "Maybe if you got in touch with them， they might be able to track down the daughter. "She gave me the name of the nursing home， and I called the number. The woman on the phone told me the old lady had passed away some years ago， but the nursing home did have a phone number for where the daughter might be living. I thanked the person at the nursing home and phoned the number she gave me. The woman who answered explained that Hannah herself was now living in a nursing home. This whole thing is stupid， I thought to myself. Why am I making such a big deal over finding the owner of a wallet that has only three dollars and a letter that is almost sixty years old?
我等候了幾分鐘，然後那位負責人回到線上：“有一位女士將會和你說。”我問電話另一端的女士，她是否認識一個叫漢娜的人。
3、Nevertheless， I called the nursing home in which Hannah was supposed to be living， and the man who answered the phone told me ， "Yes， Hannah is staying with us. "Even though it was already 10 P. M. ， I asked if I could come by to see her. "Well， "he said hesitatingly， "if you want to take a chance， she might be in the day room watching television. "
然而不管怎麼樣，我還是打電話給漢娜所在的養老院，接電話的男人告訴我，“是的，漢娜是和我們在一起。”即使已經是晚上10點了，我還是問是否可以前去看她，那人猶豫地說：“好吧，你可以試試運氣，她可能在客廳裡看電視。”
4、I thanked him and drove over to the nursing home. The night nurse and a guard greeted me at the door. We went up to the third floor of the large building. In the day room， the nurse introduced me to Hannah. She was a sweet， silverhaired old——timer with a warm smile and a twinkle in her eyes. I told her about finding the wallet and showed her the letter. The second she saw the powder——blue envelope with that little flower on the left， she took a deep breath and said， "Young man， this letter was the last contact I ever had with Michael. "She looked away for a moment， deep in thought， and then said softly， "I loved him very much. But I was only sixteen at the time and my mother felt I was too young. Oh， he was so handsome. He looked like Sean Connery， the actor. "
我謝過了他並開車到養老院。值夜班的護士和一個守衛在門口接待了我。我們上了大樓的三層。在客廳中，護士向漢娜介紹了我。她是一個和藹的老人，滿頭銀髮，面帶微笑，神采奕奕。我告訴她關於拾到錢夾的事並給她看了信。她看見左邊有花的淡藍色信封的一刻，深深地吸了一口氣並說：“年輕人，這封信是我和邁克爾的最後聯繫。”她把視線轉向別處，陷入沉思，然後柔和地說：“我非常愛他，
5、If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need， sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view.
如果你覺得心有餘力不足，覺得缺乏前進的動力，有時候你只需要改變思維的角度。
6、By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things， you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance.
試著訓練自己的思想朝好的一面看，這樣你就會汲取實現目標的動力，而不會因為消極沉淪停滯不前。
7、Your life can be enhanced， and your happiness enriched， when you choose to change your perspective. Don't leave your future to chance， or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence， and work through problems rather than avoid them. Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations， but the ability to deal with whatever comes your way.
一旦變換看問題的角度，你的生活會豁然開朗，幸福快樂會接踵而來。別交出掌握命運的主動權，也別指望局面會不可思議的好轉。你必須與內心希望與熱情步調一致。建立自信，敢於與困難短兵相接，而非繞道而行。記住，力量不是駕馭局勢的法寶，無堅不摧的能力才是最重要的。()
8、Always believe that good things are possible， and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust； learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your "worry hours" into "productive hours". Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you addopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world.
請堅信，美好的降臨並非不可能，失誤也許是成功的前奏。將惶恐化作信任，學會超越擔憂和疑慮。讓“誠惶誠恐”的時光變得“富有成效”。不要揮霍浪費精力， 將它投到有意義的事情中去。當你下意識品嘗生命的歡愉時，美好就會出現。當你積極地看待生活，並以此作為你的日常準則時，你就會找到快樂的真諦。
