Did these prejudices prevail only among the meanest and lowest of the people, perhaps they

might be excused, as they have few, if any, opportunities of correcting them by reading, traveling, or conversing with foreigners; but the misfortune is, that they infect the minds, and influence the conduct even of our gentlemen; of those, I mean, who have every title to this appellation but an exemption from prejudice, which, however, in my opinion, ought to be regarded as the characteristic mark of a gentleman; for let a mans birth be ever so high, his station ever so exalted, or his fortune ever so large, yet if he is not free from national and other prejudices, I should make bold to tell him, that he had a low and vulgar mind, and had no just claim to the character of a gentleman. And in fact, you will always find that those are most apt to boast of national merit, who have little or no merit of their own to depend on, than which, to be sure, nothing is more natural: the slender vine twists around the sturdy oak for no other reason in the world but because it has not strength sufficient to support itself.

第1题

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over confli

ct and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics. In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted—for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things—some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom. For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life. For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the west; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth. For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.

第2题

小巷的动人处就是它无比的悠闲。无论谁,只要你到巷里去踟躇一会,你的心情就会如巷尾不波的古井,那

是一种和平的静穆,而不是阴森和肃杀。它闹中取静,别有天地,仍是人间。它可能是一条现代的乌衣巷,家家有自己的一本哀乐账一部兴衰史,可是重门叠户,讳莫如深。夕阳影里,野花闲草,燕子低飞,寻觅归家。只是一片澄明如水的气氛,净化一切,笼罩一切,使人忘忧。 巷,是人海汹汹中的一道避风塘,给人带来安全感;是城市喧嚣扰攘中的一带洞天幽静,胜似皇家的阁道,便于平常百姓徘徊徜徉。 爱逐臭争利,锱铢必较的,请到长街闹市去;爱轻嘴薄舌的,争是论非的,请到茶馆酒楼去;爱锣鼓钲镗,管弦嗷嘈的,请到歌台剧院去;爱宁静淡泊,沉思默想的,深深的小巷在欢迎你。

第3题

When the women I met at college thought about the joys and privileges of men, they did not

carry in their minds the sort of men I had known in my childhood. They thought of their fathers, who were bankers, physicians, architects, stockbrokers, the big wheels of the big cities. These fathers rode the train to work or drove cars that cost more than any of my childhood houses. They were attended from morning to night by female helpers, wives and nurses and secretaries. They were never laid off, never short of cash at months end, never lined up for welfare. These fathers made decisions that mattered. They ran the world. The daughters of such men wanted to share in this power, this glory. So did I. They yearned for a say over their future, for jobs worthy of their abilities, for the right to live at peace, unmolested, whole. Yes, I thought, yes, yes. The difference between me and these daughters was that they saw me, because of my sex, as destined from birth to become like their fathers, and therefore as an enemy to their desires. But I knew better. I wasnt an enemy, in fact or in feeling. I was an ally. If I had known, then, how to tell them so, would they have believed me? Would they now?

我在故乡走的地方不多,但古迹、侨乡,到处可见,福建华侨,遍于天下。我所到过的亚、非、欧、美各国都可

见到辛苦创业的福建侨民,握手之余,情溢言表。在他们家里、店里,吃着福州菜,喝着茉莉花茶,使我觉得作为一个福州人是四海都有家的。 我的父母之乡是可爱的。有人从故乡来,或是有朋友新近到福建去过,我都向他们问起福建的近况。他们说:福建比起二十多年前来.进步得不可辨认了。最近呢,农业科学化了,又在植树造林,山岭田地更加郁郁葱葱了。他们都动员我回去看看。我何尝不想呢?不但我想,在全世界的天涯海角,更不知有多少人在想!我愿和故乡的人,以及普天下的福建侨民,一同在精神和物质文明方面,把故乡建设得更美好!

第5题

我已是一个中年的人。一到中年,就有许多不愉快的现象,眼睛昏花了,记忆力减退了,头发开始秃脱而且

变白了,意兴,体力,什么都不如年青的时候,常不禁会感觉到难以名言的寂寞的情味。尤其觉得难堪的是知友的逐渐减少和疏远,缺乏交际上的温暖的慰藉。 不消说,相识的人数是随了年龄增加的,一个人年龄越大,走过的地方当过的职务越多,相识的人理该越增加了。可是相识的人并不就是朋友。我们和许多人相识,或是因了事务关系,或是因了偶然的机缘——如在别人请客的时候同席吃过饭之类。见面时点头或握手,有事时走访或通信,口头上彼此也称“朋友”,笔头上有时或称“仁兄”,诸如此类,其实只是一种社交上的客套,和“顿首”“百拜”同是仪式的虚伪。这种交际可以说是社交,和真正的友谊相差似乎很远。

第6题

在那著名的古庙里,站立着一尊高大的塑像,人站在他的旁边,伸直了手还摸不到他的膝盖。很多年以来,

他都使看见的人不由自主地肃然起敬,感到自己的渺小,卑微,因而渴望能得到他的拯救。 这尊塑像站了几百年了,他觉得这是一种苦役。对于热望从他得到援助的芸芸众生,明知是无能为力的,因此他由于羞愧而厌烦,最后终于向那些膜拜者说话了: “众生啊,你们做的是多么可笑的事!你们以自己的模型创造了我,把我加以扩大,想从我身上发生一种威力,借以镇压你们不安定的精神。而我却害怕你们。 我敢相信:你们之所以要创造我,完全是因为你们缺乏自信——请看吧,我比之你们能多些什么呢?而我却没有你们自己所具备的。”

第7题

After all, that dreadful aspect of the thing never really took hold of me; I could put it

by without much effort. Life is done—and what matter? Whether it has been, in sum, painful or enjoyable, even now I cannot say—a fact which in itself should prevent me from taking the loss too seriously. What does it matter? Destiny with the hidden face decreed that I should come into being, play my little part, and pass again into silence; is it mine either to approve or to rebel? Let me be grateful that I have suffered no intolerable wrong, no terrible woe of flesh or spirit, such as other—alas! alas! —have found in their lot. Is it not much to have accomplished so large a part of the mortal journey with so much ease? If I find myself astonished at its brevity and small significance, why, that is my own fault; the voices of those gone before had sufficiently warned me. Better to see the truth now, and accept it, than to fall into dread surprise on some day of weakness, and foolishly to cry against fate. I will be glad rather than sorry, and think of the thing no more.

第8题

There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pr

essed down by a physical exhaustion that haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul. She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. In the street below a peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves. There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled above the other in the west facing her window. She sat with her head thrown back upon the cushion of the chair quite motionless, except when a sob came up into her throat and shook her, as a child who has cried itself to sleep continues to sob in its dreams.

第9题

I had scarcely passed my twelfth birthday when I entered the inhospitable regions of exami

nations, through which for the next seven years I was destined to journey. These examinations were a great trial to me. The subjects which were dearest to the examiners were almost invariably those I fancied least. I would have liked to have been examined in history, poetry and writing essays. The examiners, on the other hand, were partial to Latin and mathematics. And their will prevailed. Moreover, the questions which they asked on both these subjects were almost invariably those to which I was unable to suggest a satisfactory answer. I should have liked to be asked to say what I knew. They always tried to ask what I did not know. When I would have willingly displayed my knowledge, they sought to expose my ignorance. This sort of treatment had only one result: I did not do well in examinations.

第10题

他饮他的花酒,我喝我的清茶。人生,需要一种境界:自我安定。面对别人的成功和荣耀,我喝我的清茶。我

明白那掌声已有所属,匆匆忙忙赶过去,不会有成功等着你。还是自己再创业绩吧,跟着别人永远只能摸着成功的尾巴。 凡事不逃避,我喝我的清茶,荷花居污泥而不染,若为怕水污而种在旱地上,它早就枯死了。人生也一样,避恶、避丑、避邪,只能说明心灵脆弱,一个自我安定的人,是不怕环境污染自己的,而有力量影响他人。古代孟母三迁是为了怕孩子受影响,要为了自己就没有必要逃避了,后来孟子长大成人后也没听说孟母再搬家。自我安定可不是找一个安宁的所在,而恰恰是在紊乱的环境中保持安定的心境。“定”是一种境界,是居于多变之中的不动摇。 只有达到这一境界,才能掌握自己的方向,才能做到:“他饮他的花酒,我喝我的清茶。”
