篇1：經(jīng)典的英語(yǔ)文章
In this symposium, better is it to only sit in silence. To express one's feelings as the end draws near is too intimate a task. That I would mention only one thought that comes to me as a listener-in: the riders in a race do not stop short when they reach the goal, there is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill, there is time to hear the kind voice of friends, and to say to oneself, the work is done. But just as one says that, the answer comes, the race is over, but the work never is done while the power to work remains. The canter that brings you to a standstill need not be only coming to rest; it cannot be while you still live. But to live is to function, that is all there is in living. So I end with a land from a Latin voice: death, death, clutches my ear, and says, live, I am coming.--By Oliver Wendell Holmes
此刻，沉默是金。要在生命即將完結(jié)之時(shí)表達(dá)個(gè)人感受并非易事。但我只是想談?wù)勛鳛橐幻麅A聽(tīng)者的看法。騎士們并非一到終點(diǎn)就立刻止步。他們繼續(xù)緩步向前，傾聽(tīng)朋友們的歡呼。他們雖然告訴自己行程已經(jīng)結(jié)束了。正如人們所說(shuō)結(jié)果出來(lái)了,比賽結(jié)束了。但只要?jiǎng)恿θ栽?，人生之旅就尚未結(jié)束。終點(diǎn)之后的慢跑并非停止不前，因?yàn)榛钪悴荒苋绱??；钪鸵兴鳛?，這才是生命的真諦。最后謹(jǐn)以一句古拉丁格言與各位共勉：死神不止，奮斗不止。 --[美]奧利佛·文德?tīng)?middot;荷默斯
The grandest of these ideals is an unfolding American promise that everyone belongs, that everyone deserves a chance that no insignificant person was ever born. Americans are called to enact this promise in our lives and in our laws. And though our nation has sometimes halted, and sometimes delayed, we must follow no other course. Through much of the last century, America's faith in freedom and democracy was a rock in a raging sea. Now it is a seed upon the wind, taking root in many nations. Our democratic faith is more than the creed of our country, it is the inborn hope of our humanity, an ideal we carry but do not own, a trust we bear and pass along. And even after nearly 225 years, we have a long way yet to travel. --By George W.Bush
這些理想中最偉大的是正在慢慢實(shí)現(xiàn)的美國(guó)的承諾，這就是：每個(gè)人都有自身的價(jià)值，每個(gè)人都有成功的機(jī)會(huì)，每個(gè)人天生都會(huì)有所作為的。美國(guó)人民肩負(fù)著一種使命，那就是要竭力將這個(gè)諾言變成生活中和法律上的現(xiàn)實(shí)。雖然我們的國(guó)家過(guò)去在追求實(shí)現(xiàn)這個(gè)承諾的途中停滯不前甚至倒退，但我們?nèi)詫?jiān)定不移地完成這一使命。在上個(gè)世紀(jì)的大部分時(shí)間里，美國(guó)自由民主的信念猶如洶涌大海中的巖石?，F(xiàn)在它更像風(fēng)中的種子，把自由帶給每個(gè)民族。在我們的國(guó)家，民主不僅僅是一種信念，而是全人類的希望;民主，我們不會(huì)獨(dú)占，而會(huì)竭力讓大家分享;民主，我們將銘記于心并且不斷傳播。225年過(guò)去了，我們?nèi)杂泻荛L(zhǎng)的路要走。

篇2：經(jīng)典的英語(yǔ)文章
"BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS"
Winston Churchill (May 13, 1940 ) On Friday evening last I received from His Majesty the mission to form a new administration.
It was the evident will of Parliament and the nation that this should be conceived on the broadest possible basis and that it should include all parties.
I have already completed the most important part of this task. A war cabinet has been formed of five members, representing, with the Labor, Opposition and Liberals, the unity of the nation.
It was necessary that this should be done in one single day on account of the extreme urgency and rigor of events. Other key positions were filled yesterday. I am submitting a further list to the King tonight. I hope to complete the appointment of principal Ministers during tomorrow.
The appointment of other Ministers usually takes a little longer. I trust when Parliament meets again this part of my task will be completed and that the administration will be complete in all respects.
I considered it in the public interest to suggest to the Speaker that the House should be summoned today. At the end of today's proceedings, the adjournment of the House will be proposed until May 2l with provision for earlier meeting if need be. Business for that will be notified to M. P. 's at the earliest opportunity.
I now invite the House by a resolution to record its approval of the steps taken and declare its confidence in the new government. The resolution:
"That this House welcomes the formation of a government representing the united and inflexible resolve of the nation to prosecute the war with Germany to a victorious conclusion."
To form an administration of this scale and complexity is a serious undertaking in itself. But we are in the preliminary Phase of one of the greatest battles in history. We are in action at any other points-in Norway and in Holland-and we have to be prepared in the Mediterranean. The air battle is continuing, and many preparations have to be made here at home.
In this crisis I think I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today, and I hope that any of my friends and colleagues or for mer colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony with which it has been necessary to act.
I say to the House as I said to Ministers who have joined this government, I have
nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word, It is victory. Victory at all
costs-victory in spite of all terrors-victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
Let that be realized. No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal.
I take up my task in buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men.
I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, "Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength."
“熱血、汗水和眼淚”
上星期五晚上，我奉陛下之命，組織新的一屆政府。
按國(guó)會(huì)和國(guó)民的意愿，新政府顯然應(yīng)該考慮建立在盡可能廣泛的基礎(chǔ)上，應(yīng)該兼容所有的黨派。
我已經(jīng)完成了這項(xiàng)任務(wù)的最主要的部分。戰(zhàn)時(shí)內(nèi)閣已由五人組成，包括工黨、反對(duì)黨和自由黨，這體現(xiàn)了舉國(guó)團(tuán)結(jié)一致。
由于事態(tài)的極端緊急和嚴(yán)峻，新閣政府須于一天之內(nèi)組成，其他的關(guān)鍵崗位也于昨日安排就緒。今晚還要向國(guó)王呈報(bào)一份名單。我希望明天就能完成幾位主要大臣的任命。
其余大臣們的任命照例得晚一些。我相信，在國(guó)會(huì)下一次召開(kāi)時(shí)，任命將告完成，臻于完善。
為公眾利益著想，我建議議長(zhǎng)今天就召開(kāi)國(guó)會(huì)。今天的議程結(jié)束時(shí)，建議休會(huì)到5月21日，并準(zhǔn)備在必要時(shí)提前開(kāi)會(huì)。有關(guān)事項(xiàng)當(dāng)會(huì)及早通知各位議員。
現(xiàn)在我請(qǐng)求國(guó)會(huì)作出決議，批準(zhǔn)我所采取的各項(xiàng)步驟，啟示記錄在案，并且聲明信任新政府。決議如下：
“本國(guó)會(huì)歡迎新政府的組成，她體現(xiàn)了舉國(guó)一致的堅(jiān)定不移的決心：對(duì)德作戰(zhàn)，直到最后勝利。”
組織如此規(guī)模和如此復(fù)雜的政府原本是一項(xiàng)重大的任務(wù)。但是我們正處于歷史上罕見(jiàn)的一場(chǎng)大戰(zhàn)的初始階段。我們?cè)谄渌S多地點(diǎn)作戰(zhàn)——在挪威，在荷蘭，我們還必須在地中海做好準(zhǔn)備?？諔?zhàn)正在繼續(xù)，而且在本土也必須做好許多準(zhǔn)備工作。
值此危急關(guān)頭，我想，即使我今天向國(guó)會(huì)的報(bào)告過(guò)于簡(jiǎn)略，也當(dāng)能見(jiàn)諒。我還希望所有在這次改組中受到影響的朋友、同僚和舊日的同僚們對(duì)必要的禮儀方面的任何不周之處能毫不介意。
我向國(guó)會(huì)表明，一如我向入閣的大臣們所表明的，我所能奉獻(xiàn)的唯有熱血、辛勞、眼淚和汗水我們所面臨的將是一場(chǎng)極其嚴(yán)酷的考驗(yàn)，將是曠日持久的斗爭(zhēng)和苦難。
若問(wèn)我們的政策是什么?我的回答是：在陸上、海上、空中作戰(zhàn)。盡我們的全力，盡上帝賦予我們的全部力量去作戰(zhàn)，對(duì)人類黑暗、可悲的罪惡史上空前兇殘的暴政作戰(zhàn)。這就是我們的政策。
若問(wèn)我們的目標(biāo)是什么?我可以用一個(gè)詞來(lái)回答，那就是勝利。不惜一切代價(jià)，去奪取勝利——不懼一切恐怖，去奪取勝利——不論前路如何漫長(zhǎng)、如何艱苦，去奪取勝利。因?yàn)闆](méi)有勝利就不能生存。
我們務(wù)必認(rèn)識(shí)到，沒(méi)有勝利就不復(fù)有大英帝國(guó)，沒(méi)有勝利就不復(fù)有大英帝國(guó)所象征的一切，沒(méi)有勝利就不復(fù)有多少世紀(jì)以來(lái)的強(qiáng)烈要求和沖動(dòng)：人類應(yīng)當(dāng)向自己的目標(biāo)邁進(jìn)。
我精神振奮、滿懷信心地承擔(dān)起我的任務(wù)。我確信，大家聯(lián)合起來(lái)，我們的事業(yè)就不會(huì)遭到挫敗。
在此時(shí)此刻的危急關(guān)頭，我覺(jué)得我有權(quán)要求各方面的支持。我要說(shuō)：“來(lái)吧，讓我們?nèi)翰呷毫?，并肩前進(jìn)!”
篇3：經(jīng)典的英語(yǔ)文章
My Rabbits
One day, my mother bought two little rabbits for me. I’m very happy.
From that on, the two little rabbits became my good friends. They have two little ears, red eyes, with white and fat boby. They’re marvellous.
Everyday, they play with each other happily. One day, I couldn’t find them. I asked my mother: ”Where are they? ” My mother told me that She didn’t know. At last, I found them in the grass. They were very dirty. I was angry, but when I looked at their lovely faces, I was happy again.
I love my little rabbits, and they love me. They are my good friends forever.
