The meaning of life 人生的意义
大家随便说两句吧 尽量简洁精华一点
杜绝长篇大论 尽量用英语 呵呵
还有希望是你们自己真实的想法 如果能配上一个小故事就更好了 不要随便就当一些英文谚语给我哦 呵呵
选了两个关于人生意义的文章.
1.一个小男孩询问人生意义是什么.
一个老人(狄斯尼乐园创建人)回答他:思考,坚信,梦想,无惧.
The Little Boy Asks the Meaning of Life
By:Author Unknown
An eight-year-old boy approached an old man in front of a wishing well,looked up into his eyes,and asked:
"I understand you're a very wise man.I'd like to know the secret of life."
The old man looked down at the youngster and replied:
"I've thought a lot in my lifetime,and the secret can be summed up in four words.The first is think.Think about the values you wish to live your life by.The second is believe.Believe in yourself based on the thinking you've done about the values you're going to live your life by.The third is dream.Dream about the things that can be,based on your belief in yourself and the values you're going to live by.The last is dare.Dare to make your dreams become reality,based on your belief in yourself and your values."
And with that,Walter E.Disney said to the little boy,"Think,Believe,Dream,and Dare."
2.我至少要试一下.
"I must at least try"
In June 1985,two British mountaineers Joe Simpson and Simon Yates made the first-ever climb of the West Face of the 21,000 foot snow-covered Siula Grande mountain in Peru.It was an exceptionally tough assault - but nothing compared to what was to come.Early in the descent,Simpson fell and smashed his right knee.Yates could have abandoned him but managed to find a way of lowering him down the mountain in a series of difficult drops blinded by snow and cold.Then Simpson fell into a crevasse and Yates eventually had no choice but to cut the rope,utterly convinced that his friend was now dead.
In his subsequent book on the climb entitled "Touching The Void",Joe Simpson wrote:
"As I gazed at the distant moraines,I knew that I must at least try.I would probably die out there amid those boulders.The thought didn't alarm me.It seemed reasonable,matter-of-fact.That was how it was.I could aim for something.If I died,well,that wasn't so surprising,but I wouldn't have just waited for it to happen.The horror of dying no longer affected me as it had in the crevasse.I now had the chance to confront it and struggle against it.It wasn't a bleak dark terror any more,just fact,like my broken leg and frostbitten fingers,and I couldn't be afraid of things like that.My leg would hurt when I fell and when I couldn't get up I would die."
The survival of Yates himself was extraordinary.That Simpson somehow found a way of climbing out of the crevasse after 12 hours and then literally crawled and dragged himself six miles back to camp,going three days and nights without food or drink,losing three stone,and contracting ketoacidosis in the process,would be the stuff of heroic fiction if it was not so true.Indeed,six operations and two years later,he was even back climbing.All because,against all the odds,he tried ...
