双语美文:爱要及时说出口【1】
There was once a guy who suffered from cancer, a cancer that can't be cured. He was 18 years old and he could die anytime. All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken cared by his mother. He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once. So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.
曾有一男孩,患了不治之癌。他才18岁,但生命随时会结束。一直以来,男孩都被困在屋子里,由他的母亲照料。男孩从未出去过,但他厌倦了一直窝在家里,想出去走一走。男孩因此询问他的母亲,并得到了母亲的同意。
He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked. He stopped and went back to look into the store. He saw a beautiful girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight. He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her. He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.
男孩出了门,路过了许多家店。经过一家卖CD的音像店时他看了眼前门。男孩停了下来,并走回去又往店里看了看。他看见一个漂亮的女孩,年龄大约和他一般大。男孩意识到他一眼就爱上了这女孩。他打开了这家店的门,走了进去,什么也不看,就只看着她。男孩越走越近,直到来到这女孩坐着的前台。
She looked up and asked, "Can I help you?"
女孩抬起头来问道:“有什么需要帮忙的吗?”
She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.
女孩笑了笑,男孩认为这是他见过的最美丽的笑容,他甚至想当场就亲吻这女孩。
He said, "Uh... Yeah... Umm... I would like to buy a CD."
他说道:“呃…是的…嗯…我想买张CD。”
He picked one out and gave her money for it.
男孩随便挑了一张出来并把钱递给女孩。
"Would you like me to wrap it for you?" she asked, smiling her cute smile again.“
需要我帮你把它包起来吗?”女孩问,脸上又露出可爱的微笑。
He nodded and she went to the back. She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him. He took it and walked out of the store.
男孩点了点头,女孩走到前台的后面。回来的时候女孩拿着包装好了的CD,交给了男孩。他拿了过来,然后走出了这家店。
He went home and from then on, he went to that store every day and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet. He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn't. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her. So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store as usual. He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn't looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out...
男孩回到了家。从那以后,他每天都会来这家店,买一张CD,然后女孩就给他包装起来。男孩把CD带回家,放进他的衣橱里。他还是很害羞,不敢把她约出来。他真的很想,但是他做不到。男孩的母亲知道了此事后,就告诉他,只管把她约出来就好了。于是第二天,男孩鼓起了全部的勇气,像往常一样来到了店里。像过去那样,他还是买了一张CD,而女孩也还是走到后面,回来的时候再把包装好的CD交给他。男孩接了过来,趁女孩不注意,他把他的电话号码留在了桌子上,然后跑了出去…
RRRRRING!!!
“铃铃铃铃铃铃…”
One day the phone rang, and the mother picked it up and said, "Hello?"
一天,电话响了起来。男孩的母亲接起电话说道,“你好?”
It was the girl!!! The mother started to cry and said, "You don’t know? He passed away yesterday..."
是那个女孩!!!男孩的母亲开始哭了起来,说道:“你不知道吗?他昨天就去世了…”
The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy's mother. Later in the day, the mother went into the boy's room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet.
电话里安静了下来,只听到男孩母亲啜泣的声音。之后,男孩的母亲来到了他的房间,缅怀她的儿子。男孩的母亲想先看一看男孩的衣物。于是她打开了男孩的衣柜。
She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one. Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
在她的`面前,是一摞又一摞的CD。看到这么多的CD,男孩的母亲感到很惊讶。她随手拿出一张,坐在了男孩床上。她拆开了包装,把CD拿了出来。一张纸条掉了出来。男孩的母亲捡起了纸条,开始读起来。上面写着:你好…我觉得你真的很可爱。你想和我出去约会吗?爱你的,乔瑟琳。
The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD...
男孩的母亲被深深打动了,拆开了另一张CD…
Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
又发现了另一张纸条。上面写着:你好…我觉得你真的很可爱。你想和我出去约会吗?爱你的,乔瑟琳。
Love is... when you've had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, "I Love You."
爱就是…当你万般挣扎过后,把自我放到一边,握住对方的手,说:“我爱你。”

双语美文:觉得世界不好?那你够好吗?【4】
I was running a few errands in my car the other day. The sun was out, the radio was playing, and I was singing along. The song was a joyful one and even my weak voice sounded good singing it. Then it happened, however. The sweet sound of the music ended and was replaced with the dreaded news break.
前几天我在自己的车子里处理一些事情,太阳出来了,收音机播放着,我跟着里面唱起歌来,歌曲的旋律欢快,我五音不全也能唱好。突然优美的音乐停止了,取而代之的是骇人听闻的一些消息。
I drove on while the announcer droned on. Gas prices were going higher again because of the competitive speculation on Wall Street. The race for the Presidency was getting nastier and nastier, Rioting had broken out when fans of a sports team had gone wild, celebrating their team’s championship.
我边开着车边听着广播,由于华尔街上的投机竞争导致油价的上涨,总统竞选变得越来越手段肮脏,粉丝在庆祝喜爱的运动队伍取得比赛胜利时候,发生了。
Finally, I could take no more and turned off the radio. Silence seemed preferable to listening to anything else about the crazy, competitive society we live in. I slowed down as I entered a local town and watched the people as I drove by.
最终我不堪忍受这些负面新闻之重而关掉了收音机。此刻的宁静比听那些令人糟心揭露社会疯狂、竞争新闻要好多了,我减速来的镇上,看经过的人来人往。
A tall muscular man was helping an elderly lady out of a car and helping her position her walker so she could go into a local store.
一个身材高大壮硕的男子正在帮一位行动不便老妇人,从车里出来并帮她安放好助步器,这样她就可以去当地的商店。
A smiling woman was tossing birdseed into her backyard while a dozen Robins flew down to enjoy the feast being laid out before them.
一位面带微笑的妇人,在她的后院给一群知更鸟投食,那些鸟儿可以大快朵颐。
A young man was walking along, carrying his two year old daughter safely in his arms. He tickled her gently when she pulled the hat off his head and they both laughed. I laughed too as I looked at all of this kindness. It felt like a glimpse of Heaven. The radio may have been off in my car, but in my heart I was still singing.
一位年轻的父亲走来,将他两岁的女儿搂在臂弯,看起来安全感十足。当女儿试图去拉他的帽子,他开始挠女儿痒痒,他们都开心的笑了。当看到生命中这些温暖美好的事情,我也笑了。尽管车里广播被我关了,但是我的心仿佛随着之前播放的歌曲,悠扬的唱了起来。
In truth, this world could use a little more kindness and a lot less competition. Kindness makes us all winners in this life. Kindness reminds us that we are all God’s Children. Kindness shows us that we don’t have to beat others in this world.
我所感到生命的真谛是,这个世界可以多一些美好,少一些竞争。带着善意让我们每个人都是赢家,让我们觉得自己是上帝之子,不需要打败这个世上的任何人。
We just have to love them. May all of your moments here then be full of kindness, love, and joy. And may your only competition be with yourself: to be the best possible you that you can be.
我们只要施与爱。愿生命的每一刻都平顺喜乐。愿我们永远都以超越自己为目标,成为更好的自己。
