中英雙語美文《幸福的秘密》
幸福的秘密，希望在這個慵懶的午后，本篇是小編帶來的幸福的秘密雙語美文，歡迎閱讀。
Once there lived a king of great strength andwealth.Yet he was not happy.He told his servants tofind him things to make him happy,but each cameback saying,”Noting in the world can match thewonderful things you have already.”Then in thatland,there lived a poor man with a patch over oneeye and a crutch to help him walk.Although he hadlittle,he was always happy.When the king heard ofthis,he asked the man to teach him his secret.
從前有一位國王，很有權(quán)力和財富，然而他并不快樂。他告訴仆人去找可以使他快樂的東西，但是每個回來的人都說：“世界上沒有什么比得上你已經(jīng)擁有的極好的東西。”當(dāng)時那個國家住著一個窮人，他一個眼睛戴著眼罩并靠拐杖走路。雖然他擁有的很少，但是他總是很快樂。當(dāng)國王聽說這件事的時候，他要求這個人教他快樂的秘決。
“I never push.” the man replied,”and I never rush. Most of all, I never wish for too much.”Thenhe smiled and was gone.
“我從來不強迫，”這個人答道，“而且我從不匆忙。最重要的是，我從不希望得到太多。”然后，他笑著離開了。
If you would make a man happy,do not add to his possessions but subtract from his desires.
如果你想使一個人快樂，不要增加他的財產(chǎn)，而是要減少他的欲望。
讀了一篇文章是不是覺得還不夠呢?那再來一篇吧
Many people think that when they become rich and successful,happiness will naturally follow.Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth.The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they were living in hell.We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs.Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems.Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness.Lottery winnings do not bring happiness.Gamble winnings do not bring happiness.
許多人認(rèn)為當(dāng)他們富有，取得成功時，幸福自然就會隨之而來。我告訴你:事實并非如此。世界上有很多富人，但是他們卻很痛苦，猶如生活在地獄中。我們都讀過影星自殺或死于吸毒的故事。顯而易見，錢不是解決所有問題的答案。通過不正當(dāng)手段獲得的財富并不能帶來幸福。抽到獎券也不會帶來幸福;賭博也不會帶給你幸福。
To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work.There is no use saying in your contribution towards others' happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort.If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means,you will know that it is ill earned money.If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others,you will not be happy with it.You will think you are a base person.Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem.
在我看來，幸福的秘密在于要有成功的工作。通過帶給別人幸福和誠實的努力而獲得的幸福才是真正的幸福。如果你是通過運氣或是不誠實的手段而獲得錢財，你會知道那并不是辛苦掙來的錢;如果通過利用別人或是傷害別人而獲得錢財，你不會因此高興。你會認(rèn)為自己是個卑鄙的'人。長期的幸福是建立在誠實，有成果的工作，貢獻(xiàn)和自尊的基石上的
Happiness is not an end; it is a process.It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, "There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.""Some day when I achieve these goals,when I get a car, build a house and own my own business,then I will be really happy."Life just does not work that way.If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy,you will always feel unfulfilled.There will always be something missing.
幸福并不是終點，而是種過程。那是一個持續(xù)地通過誠實，有成果的工作為他人奉獻(xiàn)的過程，這樣做也會讓你感到自己是一個有用的且有價值的人。正如韋恩博士所說的那樣：“沒有那條路能通向幸福。幸福本身就是那條路。”“有天當(dāng)我實現(xiàn)這些目標(biāo)時，當(dāng)我買一輛汽車，建一所房子，創(chuàng)立自己的生意時，那時我才是真正幸福的。”生活并不是那樣進(jìn)行的。如果你等待某些事情的發(fā)生或依靠生活的外部環(huán)境來讓你自己感到幸福，你總也不會感到滿足�？倳行┦屡c你失之交臂。
What is you idea about happiness, guys?
