篇一：适合朗诵的英文诗歌
May it be
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh!How far you are from home
Darkness has come
Believe and you will find your way
Darkness has fallen
A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away
May it be your journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun
Darkness has come
Believe and you will find the your way
Darkness has fallen
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now
也许
也许是夜晚的星星
笼罩着你
也许当夜幕降临
你的心会坚定
你独自上路
离家越来越远
黑暗降临
相信你会找到你自己的路
黑暗降临
心存希望
也许那是黑暗的呼吸
当你高飞
也许你继续前进
点亮今天
当黑夜过去
你会发现光明出现
黑暗降临
相信你会找到自己的路
黑暗降临
心存希望
心存希望

难道你不知道他们说的是真的，
事情发生都有道理。
但你的时机将会来到，
千万别停滞不进取。

篇三：适合背诵的英语美文10篇文章
第一篇：一位伟大的朋友 A Great Friend
As I am now a senior high school student, I have a great many friends, but there is one whom I prize over all the rest. I first made his acquaintance when I began to go to school. He has been my constant companion ever since.
Though he is serious in appearance, he never fails to be interesting. Often he is clever, sometimes even merry and gay. He is the most knowledgeable friend a person could have. He knows virtually every language of the world, all the events of history, and the words of all the great poets and philosophers. A kindly benefactor, he is admired and enjoyed by everyone who makes his acquaintance.
To me, he has been a great teacher as well as a friend. He first taught me the secrets of my own language and then those of others. With these keys he showed us how to unlock all the arts and sciences of man.
My friend is endlessly patient. Dull though I may be, I can return to him again and again, and he is always ready to teach me. When I am bored, he entertains me. When I am dispirited, he lifts me up. When I am lonely, he keeps me company. He is a friend not only to me but to millions around the world. Shall I tell you his name? His name is “reading”.
第一篇：翻译
由于我现在是高中生，因此有许多朋友，但我最看重其中的一位。我一开始求学就认识他了。从此以后他便是我永远不变的朋友。
虽然他外表严肃，但他总是令人感兴趣。他经常挺聪明的，有时甚至是一付欢喜愉快的模样。他是我们最有学问的朋友。世界各国的语言，历史上所有的大事，以及所有伟大的诗人与哲学家的话语，他几乎无所不知。他是个乐善好施的大好人，认识他的每个人都赞赏与喜欢他。
对我而言，他一直是位伟大的老师也是朋友。他先教会我母语的奥秘，而后是其他的语言。借着这些秘决，他教我们如何开启人类所有的艺术与科学之门。
我的朋友有无限的耐心。虽然我可能很迟钝，但我可以一再地求助于他，而他也随时准备着教导我。当我感到厌烦时，他会逗我开心。当我气馁时，他会使我振作起来。当我孤独时，他会陪伴我。他不只是我的朋友，同时也是世界各地成千上万人的朋友。要我告诉你他的名字吗？他的名字是“阅读”。

第二篇：给年轻人的建议 Advice to a Young Man
Remember, my son, you have to work. Whether you handle a pick or a pen, a wheel-barrow or a set of books, you must work. If you look around, you will see the men who are the most able to live the rest of their days without work are the men who work the hardest. Don’t be afraid of killing yourself with overwork. It is beyond your power to do that on the sunny side of thirty. They die sometimes, but it is because they quit work at six in the evening, and do not go home until two in the morning. It is the interval that kills, my son. The work gives you an appetite for your meals; it lends solidity to your slumbers; it gives you a perfect and grateful appreciation of a holiday.
There are young men who do not work, but the world is not proud of them. It does not know their names, even. Nobody likes them; the great, busy world does not know that they are there.
So find out what you want to be and do, and take off your coat and make a dust in the world. The busier you are, the less harm you will be apt to get into, the sweeter will be your sleep, the brighter and happier your holidays, and the better satisfied will the world be with you.
第二篇：翻译
小伙子，请你记住，你必须工作。不管你握着的是一把十字镐或是一支笔，一辆独轮手推车或一套书，你都必须工作。如果你环顾四周，你会发现那些不必工作就最有能力度过余生的人乃是工作最勤奋的人。
别害怕会过劳致死。不到30岁的人是不可能过劳而死的。这些人有时候会早逝，但那是因为晚上6点收工，直到第二天早上2点才回家。小伙子，就是这些工作之余的时间使得这些人丧命啊。工作会令你食欲大振；工作会使你十分感谢你有假日。
有些年轻人并不工作，但世界并不以他们为荣，甚至不知道他们的名字。没有人喜欢他们；广袤，忙碌的世界不会留意他们的存在。
因此，要先了解你想当什么，做什么，然后脱下外套，开始干活吧！你愈是忙碌，你愈不容易受到伤害，睡得更甜，假日也更加灿烂，更快活，而世界对你的表现也就更加满意。
1、pick [pik] n. 鹤嘴锄

4、appetite ['?pitait] n. 食欲；
5、solidity [s?'liditi] n. 坚硬，坚固；
6、slumber ['sl?mb?] n. 睡眠；
7、grateful ['ɡreitful] adj. 感谢的；
8、be apt to 倾向于
9、satisfied ['s?tisfaid] adj. 感到满意的
第三篇：开启快乐之门 The Happy Door
Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples. As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.
There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons. The key is not wealth or physical well-being, since we find beggars, invalids and so-called failures who are extremely happy.
Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend. But staying happy is an accomplishment, a triumph of soul and character. It is not selfish to strive for it. It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.
Being unhappy is like an infectious disease; it causes people to shrink away from the sufferer. He soon finds himself alone, miserable and embittered. There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem, at first glance, ridiculous: if you don’t feel happy, pretend to be!
It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling people, you attract them. You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.
Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind, and can forget yourself in being of service to others.
Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit, opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged with grateful friends.
第三篇：翻译
快乐好似扔入池子里的一颗石头，会激起不断扩散的阵阵涟漪。正如斯蒂文森所言：“快乐是一种责任。
快乐这个字眼并没有确切的定义。快乐的人可以因种种理由而快乐。其关键并非在财富或健康，因为我们发现有些乞丐、病人和所谓的失败者非常快乐。
快乐是一种意料不到的收获。而能保持快乐则是一项成就。也是灵魂与品性的胜利。努力追求快乐算不上自私。事实上，追求快乐不仅是对我们自己也是对别人的一种责任。 闷闷不乐就像一种传染病；染上这种病的人大家都惟恐避之不及。这咱人很快就会发现自己感到孤独、痛苦和难过。但是，有种很简单的方法，乍看起来似乎荒谬可笑，那就是：如果你觉得不快乐，就假装快乐吧！
这个方法很奏效。不久你就会发现自己非但不会使人反感，反而还能吸引别人。你会发现，能够成为广结善缘的中心人物是多么值得的事!
于是,原本装扮的快乐就变成了真正的快乐.你拥有心境平和的秘诀而又能忘我地服务他人.
一旦快乐被当作一种责任并成为一种习惯的时候。它就会开启大门。引领我们进入无法想象的花园中，里面云集着满怀感激的朋友。
1、pebble ['pebl] n. 卵石 6、infectious [in'fek??s] adj. 传染的
2、pool [pu:l] n.水塘 7、shrink [?ri?k] vi. 收缩；畏缩
3、ripple ['ripl] n. 波纹 8、embittered [im'bit?d] adj. 愤怒的；怨恨的
4、dividend ['dividend] n. 股息，收获9、repel [ri'pel] vt. 击退；抵制
5、triumph ['trai?mf] n. 胜利，凯旋 10、rewarding [ri'w?:di?] adj. 有益的，值得的
11、throng [θr??] vt. 群集；挤满 12、unimaginable [,?ni'm?d?in?bl] adj. 不可思议的
第四篇：友谊 Friendship
No young man starting life could have better capital than plenty of friends. They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be. Friends of the right sort will help him more---to be happy and successful---than much money or great learning.
Friendship is no one-sided affair. There can be no friendship without reciprocity. One cannot receive all and give nothing, or give all and receive nothing, and expect to experience the joy and fullness of true companionship.
Those who would make friends must cultivate the qualities which are admired and which attract. If you are mean, stingy and selfish, nobody will admire you. You must cultivate generosity and large-heartedness; you must be magnanimous and tolerant; you must have positive qualities, for a negative, shrinking, apologizing, roundabout man is despised. You must believe in yourself. If you do not, others will not believe in you. You must look upward and be hopeful, cheery, and optimistic. No one will be attracted to a gloomy pessimist.
第四篇：翻译
年轻人人生起步最好的资本莫过于拥有众多的朋友。朋友可以增加他的声望，尽最大的努力支持他，并使他达到无朋友帮助时绝不可能达到的成就。交对朋友将会比大笔的金钱或高深的学问更能让他快乐和成功。
友谊不是单方面的事。没有互惠就不能算是友谊。一个人不可能只是接受而不付出，或是只付出不回收，却期望能够享有真挚友谊的欢欣和满足。
想交朋友必须培养受人赞赏和吸引人的特质。如果你小气、吝啬又自私，没有人会欣赏你。你必须培养慷慨和宽宏大量的气度；你必须有雅量并对人容忍；你必须要有积极地特质，因为消极、畏缩、爱赔不是和迂回不前的人总是让人瞧不起。你必须信任你自己，否则就不会获得别人的信任。你必须要向前看，充满希望，愉快且乐观。没有人会理会一个忧郁的悲观者。
capital ['k?pit?l] n. 资金，首都，省会；
credit ['kredit] n. 信用，信誉；贷款
reciprocity [,resi'pr?s?ti] n. 相互作用；相互性；利益互惠
companionship [k?m'p?nj?n?ip] n. 友谊；陪伴；
generosity [,d?en?'r?s?ti] n. 慷慨，大方
magnanimous [m?ɡ'n?nim?s] adj. 宽宏大量的；有雅量的
tolerant ['t?l?r?nt] adj. 宽容的；容忍的
positive ['p?z?tiv] adj. 积极的
negative ['neɡ?tiv] adj.消极的；否定的
shrink [?ri?k] vi. 收缩；畏缩
roundabout adj. 迂回的，绕道的
despise [di'spaiz] vt. 轻视，鄙视
optimistic [,?pti'mistik] adj. 乐观的；乐观主义的
