勵志小故事(中英文對照)

1、無2 上帝那里沒有現(xiàn)成的果實上帝那里沒有現(xiàn)成的果實三個人千辛萬苦找到了上帝，請求他給予幫助。上帝問他們各需要什么。第一個人說他要一座大宅院； 第二個人說， 他要一個農(nóng)莊； 第三個人說他要一塊大金條。上帝說他可以滿足他們的需要。于是上帝給了第一個人一堆磚頭，給了第二個人一把種子，給了第三個人一把沙子。No Ready-made Fruit in Gods HandThree guys finally got the God through trials and errors. They were eager to askGod for help. Right after the God aske

2、d what they want, the first man claim a bigcourtyard, the second a farmstead, and the third a bar of gold. God promised them. Atlast, the first man was given a pile of bricks, the second a bag of seed and the third amass of sand.3 蟲子的壓力蟲子的壓力有這么一種蟲子，它的體長還不到一毫米，也許因為在電子顯微鏡下看起來像一頭黑熊，所以人們叫它雄蟲。它主要生活在淡水的沉渣

3、，潮濕土壤以及苔蘚植物的水膜中。最近日本岡山大學(xué)物理學(xué)家小野文久發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個驚人的現(xiàn)象：當(dāng) 20只小熊蟲被放入密封的容器內(nèi)，在實驗室制造的 7.5 萬個大氣壓下，20 只熊蟲只有兩只死亡，其余的 18 只安然無恙。7.5 萬個大氣壓！它相當(dāng)于每平方豪米要承受 700 多千克重物的壓力，它足以上淀粉瞬間變性，生米頃刻為熟飯。自然條件下，地球上也只有 180 千米的地幔深處才擁有如此大的壓力。至今沒有人能弄清楚熊蟲為何如此能忍。 不只是出于對這種超強生命力的尊重還是懷疑，有人叫它地獄之蟲。一個長度不超過 1 毫米的微不足道的蟲子，能承受命運給他如此的壓力，相比較而言，我們這些自稱是高級動物，智慧生命

4、，萬物之靈的人呢？在人的現(xiàn)實生活中，有多少小小的心結(jié)，小小的壓力構(gòu)成我們所謂的生存壓力。 在這樣的壓力下又有多少悲觀失落之人將美好的人生稱作地獄？現(xiàn)在一比才覺得，其實我們的壓力就好比是真空，我餓美女的地獄就是天堂中的天堂。在那一刻，我在心里默默地鞠了一躬，不是為熊蟲，而是感謝造物主沒有把這樣的壓力降在人間。Worms PressureThis is a worm whose body is no less than one millimeter. It is called 熊蟲(XC)perhaps for the reason that it looks like a black bear

5、under the microscop. The XCusually habited in the slurry of fresh water, wet soil and the 水膜 of moss plants.Recently, there was an amazing news discovered by 日本岡山大學(xué)物理學(xué)家小野文久: when 20 little XC were placed in a sealed container under the 7.5 萬個大氣壓making in experiment condition, there were only two die

6、d and the other 18 have notrouble at all. 7.5 萬個大氣壓, equal to over 700 kilogram stress per square meter,which is powerful enough to 它足以上淀粉瞬間變性 and the rice ready to eat. Innatural condition, this pressure can only be found in the 地幔 beneath the earth 180kilogram.Till now, nobody have an idea about t

7、he tolerance of XC. Someone also call itworm of hell out of admiration or suspicion. A worm, with its length less than one無millimeter, is able to bear so heavy stress. Comparatively, we human beings, theso-called advanced animal, wisdom and genius of all, can do that? In our real lives, somuch littl

8、e minds, little stress has made up our living stress. How many pessimisticand disappointed people compare the beautiful life to the miserable hell under thispressure? By comparing, I suddenly realized that our stress is just like the vacuum andthe hell is the heaven in heaven. At that moment, I made

9、 a bow in my mind. Not forXC, but for the freedom of this stress in the world made by the creator.9.豪華大廈意味著衰落豪華大廈意味著衰落珀金森的“辦公大樓法則”是：某個組織的辦公大樓設(shè)計得越完美，裝飾得越豪華，該組織離解題的時間越進。他發(fā)現(xiàn)，有許多生意興隆的公司影響巨大的組織都設(shè)在不起眼的地方，住在簡陋的房屋里，一旦搬進豪華的大廈，便轉(zhuǎn)到衰退的軌道。例如，圣彼得教堂、羅馬教堂、梵蒂岡教堂等宗教組織，就是在極盛時期開始修建這些教堂，宗教組織的實力就開始走下坡路了。國際聯(lián)盟大廈、凡爾賽宮、白金漢宮、

10、英國殖民部辦工大樓等政治組織的大樓，都是在落成典禮之后，組織權(quán)勢便發(fā)生大幅度的下降，甚至帶來了厄運。如果珀金森了叫中國歷史，肯能會找到更多的例證，比如阿房宮，秦始皇陵等。為什么這些以豪華著稱的建筑物，都成了這些組織的“令莫”了？珀金森以科學(xué)的態(tài)度進行如下推測：一個組織在興旺發(fā)達(dá)之時。往往緊張而忙碌，沒有時間和精力去設(shè)計和修建瓊樓玉宇，當(dāng)所有的重要工作都已經(jīng)完成，想到要修建與其成就相稱的大樓時，其時間和精力遍集中到表面功夫上，當(dāng)某個組織的大樓設(shè)計和建造趨向完美之際，她的存在就開始失去意義。完美我的樓堂意味著這定局，而定居意味著終結(jié)。摘自方圓法制The Meaning of Wane on the

15、在沉默中面對最真實，最切己的人生感悟是找不到言辭的。對于人生最重大的問題，我們沒跟人都是能在沉默中獨自面對。我們可以一般的談?wù)搻矍?、孤獨、幸福、苦難、死亡等等，但是，那屬于每個人自己的真正意義始終在話語之外。我無法告訴別人我的愛情有多么溫柔，我的孤獨有多么絕望，我的幸福有多么美麗，我的幸福有多么美麗，我的苦難有多么沉重，我的死亡有多么荒誕。我只能把這一切藏在心中，我所說出的寫出的東西只是先思考的產(chǎn)物，而一切思考在某種意義上都是一種逃避，從最個別的逃向一般的，從命運逃向生活，從沉默的深淵逃向語言的彼岸。如果說他們尚未淪為純粹的空洞的概念， 那也只是因為他們是從沉默中掙扎出來的，身上還散發(fā)著深淵里

16、不可名狀的事物的七夕。我不否認(rèn)人與人之間溝通的可能，但我確信其前提是沉默，而不是言辭。美特林克說得好：沉默的性質(zhì)解釋了一個人靈魂的性質(zhì)。在不能共享沉默的兩個人之間， 任何言辭都無法使他們的靈魂發(fā)生溝通。對于未曾在沉默中面對過相同問題的人來說，在深刻的哲理也只是一些套話，事實上那些淺薄的讀者奇缺分不清深刻的感悟和空洞的感嘆，格言和套話，哲理和老生常談，平淡和平庸，佛性和故弄玄虛的禪機。一個人言辭理解的深度取決于他對沉默理解的深度，歸根結(jié)底取決于她的沉默，亦即他的靈魂的深度。所以，在我看來，凡有志探究人生真理的人首要功夫便是沉默，在沉默中面對他靈魂中真正屬于自己的重大問題。到他有了足夠的孕育并因此

17、感到不堪重負(fù)的時候，一切言語之門便向他打開了，這是他不但理解了有限的言辭， 而且理解了言辭背后的沉默著的背后無限的存在。（摘自中國社會報 ）Facing the Reality in SilenceThe truest and most expressive thought was hardly be expressed.We all face it alone in silence to the most important thing in life.

31、毛爾維把他的分配理由解釋清楚后， 拉姆和希亞打偶沒有對這個分配再提出異議。這真的是一個公平的裁決嗎？要知道毛爾維的裁決是否公平，就要先回答這些問題：1、8 個面包被切成了多少塊？2、每個人吃了多少塊面包？3、拉姆的面包被分成了多少塊？4、拉姆吃了 8 塊面包，還剩幾塊留給商人？5、希亞的面包被分成了多上塊？6、希亞吃了 8 塊面包，還剩幾塊留給商人？毛爾維決定只給拉姆一個硬幣，而給希亞 7 個，是因為商人吃了 8 塊面包，只有一塊是從拉姆的面包中來的，而其余 7 塊都是希亞的。點示：我們憤憤不平，太多是因為我們只會算計，不會計算。JustAllocationIn a hot afternoon
