英語(yǔ)教材:對(duì)半理論,50%的希望,,,Ibelieveinthe"50-percenttheory".Halfthetimethingsarebetterthannormal;theotherhalf,theyareworse.Ibelievelifeisapendulumswing.Ittakestimeandexperiencetounderstandwhatnormalis,andthatgivesmetheperspectivetodealwiththesurprisesofthefuture.我信奉“對(duì)半理論”。生活時(shí)而無(wú)比順暢,時(shí)而倒霉透頂,好壞參半。我覺(jué)得生活就像來(lái)回晃動(dòng)的鐘擺。讀懂生活的常態(tài)需要時(shí)間和閱歷,也正是這樣才練就了我面對(duì)未來(lái)榮辱不驚的生活態(tài)度。Letsbenchmarktheparameters:Yes,Iwilldie.Ivedealtwiththedeathsofbothparents,abestfriend,a,,belovedbossandcherishedpets.Someofthesedeathshavebeenviolent,beforemyeyes,orslowandagonizing.Badstuff,anditbelongsatthebottomofthescale.讓我們掂量這些點(diǎn)點(diǎn)滴滴:是的,我注定會(huì)死去。我已經(jīng)經(jīng)歷了雙親的仙逝,一位友人的亡故,一位敬愛的老板的離逝,還有心愛寵物的死亡。當(dāng)中一些變故突如其來(lái),直擊眼前;有些卻長(zhǎng)期折磨,痛苦不堪。糟糕的事兒,它們駐留谷底。Thentherearethosehighpoints:romanceandmarriagetotherightperson;havingachildanddoingthoseDadthingslikecoachingmysonsbaseballteam,paddling,愛愛休閑按摩會(huì)所,,aroundthecreekintheboatwhilehesswimmingwiththedogs,discoveringhiscompassionsodeepitmanifestseveninhiskindnesstosnails,hisimaginationsovividhebuildsaspaceshipfromascatteredpileofLegos.當(dāng)然生活也不乏熠熠光彩:墜入愛河締結(jié)良緣;養(yǎng)育幼子身為人父,訓(xùn)練兒子的棒球隊(duì),當(dāng)他和狗在水中嬉戲時(shí),搖槳?jiǎng)澊罢昂箢?,感受他如此?qiáng)烈的同情心——即使對(duì)蝸牛也善待有加,發(fā)現(xiàn)他如此活躍的想像力——即使零散的積木也能堆出太空飛船。Butthereisavastmeadowoflifeinthemiddle,wherethebadandthegoodflip-flopacrobatically.Thisiswhat,,convincesmetobelieveinthe50-percenttheory.但在它們發(fā)生期間有一片寬廣的草坪,在那兒上演的各種好事壞事像耍雜技一樣地翻新。這就是讓我信服對(duì)半理論的原因。OnespringIplantedcorntooearlyinabottomlandsoflood-pronethatneighborslaughed.Ifeltchagrinedatthewastedeffort.Summerturnedbrutal--theworstheatwaveanddroughtinmylifetime.Theair-conditionerdied,thewellwentdry,themarriageended,thejoblost,themoneygone.Iwaslivinglyricsfromacountrytune--musicIloathed.OnlyasurgingKansasCityRoyalsteam,boundfortheirfirstWorldSeries,,,buoyedmyspirits.有一年春天,我在一片容易被淹的低洼地過(guò)早種下了玉米,鄰居們都為此嘲笑我。一番心血付之東流讓我懊惱不已。接著我生命中最難熬的酷暑來(lái)臨了--熱浪襲人,釀至旱災(zāi)??照{(diào)失靈,水井枯竭,婚姻破裂,慘遭失業(yè),積蓄揮空。我正經(jīng)歷某個(gè)鄉(xiāng)村調(diào)頻描繪的情節(jié),我討厭這種音樂(lè)。只有一支人氣攀升的堪薩斯皇家棒球隊(duì)的小組因他們的第一次出征世界大賽團(tuán)結(jié)起來(lái)使我精神振奮。Lookingbackonthathorriblesummer,Isoonunderstoodthatallsucceedinggoodthingsmerelyoffsetthebad.Worsethannormalwouldntlastlong.Iamowedandsavorthehalcyontimes.Theyreinvigorateme,愛愛休閑按摩會(huì)所,,forthenextnastysurpriseandofferassurancethatIcanthrive.The50percenttheoryevenhelpsmeseehopebeyondmyRoyalsrecentslump,afieldofstrugglingrookiessownsothatsomeyearsoonwecanreapanOctoberharvest.回想那個(gè)可怕的夏天,我不久就明白了所有的好事壞事不過(guò)是正負(fù)抵消。不順心的境遇不會(huì)延宕過(guò)久。太平時(shí)光是我應(yīng)得的,我要盡情享受。它們給我新的活力以應(yīng)對(duì)突如其來(lái)的險(xiǎn)境,并確保我再度輝煌。對(duì)半理論甚至幫我在我喜愛的皇家棒球隊(duì)最近的低潮中看到希望——這是一塊艱難行進(jìn)的新手們耕耘的土地,播種了,假以時(shí)日我們就可以收獲十月的金秋。,,Oh,yeah,thecorncrop?Forthatoneblisteringsummer,thegroundmoisturewasjustright,plantingearlyallowedpollinationbeforeheat,witheredthetops,andthelackofrainsparedthestandingcornfromfloods.Thatwintermycriboverflowedwithcorn--fat,healthythree-to-a-stalkearsfilledwithkernelsfromheeltotip--whilemyneighborsfieldsyieldedonlybrown,emptyhusks.哦,對(duì)了,玉米收成?就那年炎熱的夏天,莊稼地的濕度恰到好處,過(guò)早的種植使授粉避開酷熱在頂梢干枯前完成,雨水稀少使地里長(zhǎng)著的玉米免遭水災(zāi)。那年冬天,我的糧倉(cāng)里堆滿了玉米--飽滿結(jié)實(shí)的玉米每株稈上結(jié)三個(gè),每個(gè)玉米從底到頂端長(zhǎng)滿了玉米粒--而我的鄰居們地里長(zhǎng),,出來(lái)的只是暗沉干癟的殼。Althoughplantingspastmayhavefallenbelowthe50-percentexpectation,andtheyprobablywillagaininthefuture,Iamstillsustainedbythecropthatflourishesduringthedrought.盡管過(guò)去播種的收獲沒(méi)有達(dá)到50%的期望,而且將來(lái)也可能是這樣,我仍然要為經(jīng)歷旱季依然豐收的玉米而堅(jiān)守陣地。,- 1.請(qǐng)仔細(xì)閱讀文檔,確保文檔完整性,對(duì)于不預(yù)覽、不比對(duì)內(nèi)容而直接下載帶來(lái)的問(wèn)題本站不予受理。
